Chapter 376 Disfigurement (5)
Nangong Yue watched her mother cry like a child in her father's arms, while her father hugged and coaxed her mother, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Nangong Xin looked back and forth at her sister and mother blankly, and asked stupidly, "Sister, mother is crying, why are you laughing?"
Nangong Yue said with a serious face: "Brother, why do you think mother is crying?"
Nangong Xin frowned, looked at her parents earnestly, and then suddenly realized: "I see, mother is crying so that father can hug!"
Lin Shi was ashamed and angry when he heard the words, and stopped crying, looking at Nangong Mu angrily.
Nangong Mu said solemnly: "Brother Xin, Sister Yue, don't tell anyone about your mother crying, otherwise, your mother will feel embarrassed."
"Don't worry, Daddy, we won't tell you." Nangong Yue and Nangong Xin assured in unison.
Lin shi got out of Nangong Mu's arms, blushing as if he was about to bleed.
Nangong Yue hurriedly accepted it as soon as she saw it, and if she went on, Lin shi was going to be so embarrassed. She quickly changed the subject and asked, "Dad, where did those bandits come from? Why was there no news in the capital before?"
"Alas!" Mentioning this matter, Nangong Mu's face suddenly became solemn, and he said slowly, "This year's Huaibei region suffered severe drought, and the farmers failed to harvest. I don't want them to be so daring, they even stole the official money for the disaster relief, making the people of Huaibei hard to live, changing their children to eat, and tens of thousands of refugees leaving their hometowns helplessly. When such a big thing happened, those local officials did not report to the court, but let the refugees All the way to the capital."
Speaking of this, Nangong Mu was a little afraid. He was in the Hanlin Academy, and he naturally knew about the movements of the court. Because of the refugees in the north, the emperor even lost his temper in the court this morning. But he never imagined that this incident would almost involve his sister Yue, it was too dangerous...
Thinking of this, Nangong Yue said with a lingering fear: "Today, the people who went to the other courtyard of King Qi were a group of bandits who were among the refugees. Those bandits murdered and set fire all the way, and they committed no evil. They heard that the other courtyard at the foot of Cuiwei Mountain belonged to King Qi. I deliberately ran away, wanting to make a fortune!"
Nangong Xin seemed to understand, but when he saw that Lin Shi and Nangong Yue had a heavy expression on their faces, he also lowered his face.
"Hey!" Lin sighed in a low voice, "Those officials in Huaibei were usually greedy and perverted the law, but now even the officials and money for disaster relief have to be stolen. Don't they accumulate virtuous virtue for future generations?"
"If they want to accumulate yin and virtue for their descendants, how could they do such a thing?" Nangong Yue sneered, "Now that His Majesty already knows, it is estimated that they will cut off their descendants this time!"
Nangong Mu also nodded and sighed: "Your Majesty is very angry this time! I'm afraid that the officialdom in Huaibei will be thoroughly investigated. On the Huaibei side, I don't know how many people will survive."
"It deserves it!" Lin Shi and Nangong Yue said in unison.
Although Lin's heart is soft-hearted on weekdays, he also knows how big a crime it is to steal money for disaster relief at this juncture.
After they talked for a while, the Nangong Mu couple and Nangong Xin left hand in hand to let Nangong Yue have a good rest.
Besides, at Nangong Tsang's Wanqing Courtyard, the Zhao family sent someone to invite the doctor. After hearing the doctor's repeated assurances that Nangong Tsang was fine, the stone in his heart suddenly fell to the ground, and he was also in the mood to ask about the outing and the bandits. thing.
Nangong Tsang said slowly, and his mood fluctuated with the day... Zhao's only noticed that his daughter said that the Mingyue County Master was very friendly to her this time.
