    Chapter 126

    The air was quiet, the candlelight flickered for a moment, and soon it became calm again. Du Rulan calmed down slightly and continued: "I'm afraid you don't know that except for the Baisong River bursting its banks, Cenzhou has been in deficit for a long time.  It wasn't until the three million taels of public funds for river repair arrived in the middle of last year that it barely covered more than half of it. Even now, when my father passed away, there is still a deficit."

    Du Rulan paused and said, "One more thing. The Cenzhou area is flooded every year and the harvest is not good. Starting three years ago, the court ordered the tax to be halved. However, until now, Cenzhou still collects taxes based on the usual good years.  , and even an additional tea tax was imposed from the year before last. Because of this, my father had a long dispute with the governor's Yamen and was detained for ten days. When he came back, he was completely broken."

    Shi Hua took a deep breath, and Xie Ling said calmly: "Your father is also the magistrate of Cenzhou. Logically speaking, he can submit a letter. Why didn't he report the matter to the court?"

    Du Rulan shook his head: "My father submitted a petition, but the memorial could not leave Cenzhou and was stopped."

    When she said this, she smiled bitterly and said: "To tell you the truth, my father was originally from the Hanlin Academy. He was a scholar. He was full of talents, but he was really not an official. He was an upright official, but in Cenzhou  This kind of place is useless and has many constraints, even a subordinate in the yamen can speak better than him."

    As she spoke, she added: "Furthermore, Cenzhou belongs to Shanyang Province. It is a place that is hit by disasters every year. It is so exploitative. It can be seen that what is the situation in other state capitals? There is collusion and collusion between them. They are in the middle of the court.  There are people, although until now, I don¡¯t know who supported them and made the decision, but after these two days, I have glimpsed a corner of Mount Tai, and it is really frightening to think that my father would end up in such a state."

    Du Rulan sighed, tears welling up in his eyes again. After hearing this, Shi Hua said calmly: "I'm afraid you can't accomplish this by yourself."

    "I know," Du Rulan nodded and said, "But now that my father is dead, I can no longer let them get away with it and risk their lives. I have to make them pay three points of the price."

    "No," Shi Hua shook his head and said seriously: "What I mean is that you are a woman and a criminal, and you should find someone who can help you."

    Du Rulan looked at her blankly and said, "Who am I looking for? Myfather has been away from home for many years and is no longer in the capital. He has no connections"

    Speaking of which, Du Rulan can be regarded as courageous among women. She even silently went to the capital to beat the Dengwen drum in an attempt to attract the attention of the court in this way. However, her strength was too weak and she was completely unable to do so.  Confront her enemies.

    Shi Hua asked: "Do you know who are the people who are here to cause trouble for you today?"

    Du Rulan shook his head and said: "I don't know them. Judging from their clothes, they should be guards raised by some dignitaries."

    Shi Hua said calmly: "Then I will tell you that they are all from the prince's house."

    Xie Ling suddenly turned to look at her with a deep gaze. Du Rulan was also startled and raised her head: "You mean"

    Shi Hua nodded and said, "Do you understand the pros and cons?"

    Du Rulan thought rapidly and murmured: "So, their backstage is the prince? Butbut he is the prince, why would he do this? Isn't Daqian his future kingdom, and aren't we his sons?  People?"

    Shi Hua said slowly: "This is not something you can think about. Now you only need to think about who can help you?"

    Du Rulan's face turned a little pale. She never expected that the person behind the scenes would have such an identity. She was just a woman with no foundation, how could she compete with her?  Who can help her?

    "Prince Gong."

    Unexpectedly, it was Xie Ling who spoke this time. He stood up, looked at Du Rulan and said, "Now in the imperial court, the only one who can compete with the prince is Prince Gong."

    Du Rulan¡¯s lips moved, and she said at a loss: ¡°But I have never met Prince Gong, how can he meet me?¡±

    Not to mention, how could the other party fight with the prince over her affairs?  The prince is the crown prince of Daqian.

    Xie Ling did not answer, but just looked at Shi Hua. Shi Hua lowered her eyes and seemed to be in a trance. After a while, she stood up and said to Du Rulan: "Don't be anxious first. This matter needs to be dealt with slowly.  You have to go to the Ministry of Punishment early tomorrow morning, so rest first. The situation here seems to be more serious with Brother Shao. I have prescribed a prescription. I will grab some medicine early tomorrow morning and you will be fine in a few days.Enter.  "

    As he spoke, he quickly went to the medicine cabinet, packed up the things on the counter, and asked with a smile: "Have you brought your prescription?"

    "Bring it here." Shi Hua took out a prescription from his sleeve pocket, handed it over, and said, "Just follow what's on it and grab three copies first."

    "Okay." The clerk at the medical clinic immediately took the prescription, glanced at it quickly, turned around and started to grab the medicine.

    The three sets of medicine didn¡¯t take long, and they were quickly prepared. The waiter diligently helped Shi Hua wrap up the medicine, and said with a smile: ¡°Guest, there are two hundred and forty coins in total, please take it.¡±

    Shi Hua nodded, paid for the medicine, picked up the medicine bag and walked out. The waiter said warmly: "You go slowly."

    However, when Shi Hua arrived at the door, she saw several familiar figures standing there. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat, her expression quickly returned to calmness, and she walked past the door with her head lowered.

    Immediately afterwards, someone's hand blocked her in front of her, and a deep voice said: "Wait a minute."
