Chapter 350: So far
The Lin family's sale of illicit salt has been exposed, and the matter has reached the ears of the emperor, but I am afraid that there will be no good results.
The best outcome is not to implicate anyone else.
Gu Wangye has been wandering around the house a lot in the past two days.
But I really didn't expect that Lord Lin would come to the door again.
Gu Wang Ye was very surprised.
Would you like to meet him?
At this time, Lord Lin is a suspect, and if the Gu family receives him, it will be a suspect.
It's too late for ordinary people to hide from this kind of thing, who dares to move forward?
Gu Shizi leaned into his father's ear and whispered, "Father, it's better for us to stay away from this kind of thing." ”
Gu Wang Ye thought about it and listened to his son's words.
The night of this day has entered the cold time.
In the dead of night, not to mention the early winter, it was already dark early, and it was completely dark.
Outside, I can't see my fingers.
Gu Zizhong noticed something unusual in himself, so he went to find his father.
But her father reassured her that nothing was wrong, and she went back to her room.
Gu Zi couldn't sleep at night, lying on the bed and tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
But in the middle of the night, there was movement outside.
Gu Zi got down from the bed directly when she re-boarded, because she didn't change her pajamas, she didn't need to prepare, she just opened the door directly, put on a fluffy coat and went straight to her father's study.
Listening to Feng Ming, the guest is in the study.
Once again, she went to her father's room.
The scene is strikingly similar to the one before.
Gu Zizhong still saw his brother at the door.
The brother pulled her aside, and the brother and sister were hiding outside the door at this time to listen to the people in the room.
Fortunately, the two of them wore thicker clothes.
A cold wind was blowing outside.
The people in the room were even more anxious.
Lord Lin almost fell to his knees in front of the table.
Gu Zizhong saw through the crack in the door that his father was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back.
Lord Lin looked at Gu Wangye, who was wandering back and forth, and sobbed in despair: "Gu Wangye, if you don't help in this matter, I'm afraid that my Lin's head will appear at the entrance of the vegetable market in the capital." ”
At this time, as if he was humbly persuading a child, Gu Wang Ye pointed at Master Lin and said anxiously: "What did I tell you before? But you don't listen. You can't get off the stage either. ”
Lord Lin's words at this time were a little cautious: "No, no matter how cold the emperor is, it is only for other people, for you Prince Gu, isn't it regarded by your own family?"
It's okay if he doesn't say this, as soon as he says this kind of thing, Gu Wangye's stomach is full of anger.
"What did I tell you? Brother Lin, you and I are both old people, and our brains are no longer children's brains. Gu Wang Ye was so angry that he didn't know what to say.
Lord Lin was so embarrassed, but he still lost his temper: "Don't you just want to say that I have no brains?"
Gu Wangye pointed at him: "You just don't have a brain." But can anyone with brains do this?"
Scold, scold, Gu Wangye is willing to scold him, indicating that he still wants to help him.
If Gu Wangye ignores him, it will be bad.
Therefore, Lord Lin is still burning with hope in his heart at this time.
He waited for Gu Wangye's anger to subside a little before he said, "Gu Wangye is right." But now, I really have no choice, and I ask Gu Wang Ye to show me a clear way. ”
Gu Wang Ye pointed out the door, as if pointing at Gu Zizhong who was staring at them.
Gu Zizhong was so frightened that he shrank his head back.
Gu Wangye said to Lord Lin: "When you spent 20,000 taels of silver to buy this official, I didn't agree. Do you say that you have money and land, but you have to live a very leisurely life? Why do you have to get an official to be in charge? Now that the emperor not only knows about your buying and selling of illicit salt, but also about your purchase of an official. ”
Lord Lin's face was almost shrunk.
"It's all gone, I know it's wrong, but I don't know what to do. "Lord Lin is acting like a stinky child now.
Although Gu Wangye has no way to take him, he can't help but help.
After all, Lord Lin is also the doorman of Lord Gu.
It's Gu Wangye's person, and Gu Wangye will take care of it.
If this matter reaches the ears of other princes, can't others use this matter as a handle to tell Gu Wangye's jokes?
Gu Wangye just wanted to take care of it, but he couldn't think of a practical way in his heart, so he was so angry.
"What about Lord Zhu? Did he come up with any excerpts?" asked Prince Gu tentatively.
Lord Lin shook his head: "Zhu Shizi is still on the way back from transporting the silver, and Lord Zhu's mind is not here." I...... I wasn't too embarrassed to bother him. ”
Gu Wangye was angry: "You are embarrassed to find someone, but you are embarrassed to come to me?"
Lord Lin hurriedly made amends: "It is said that Lord Gu is thoughtful and has a way to deal with things." Otherwise, how could I follow you with all my heart?"
This fart is ......
Gu Wangye was originally just throwing a tantrum, but Lord Lin just gave him a step down: "Okay, I didn't want to ask more, you made me angry." ”
Lord Lin hurriedly apologized: "Yes...... It's all the fault of the lower officials. ”
Gu Wang Ye stroked his beard, pondered, and suddenly said to himself: "Since the emperor knows about this, then we should no longer deliberately hide it." In this case, you take out all the savings in your house, and I will find someone to send the money to the capital. ”
Lord Lin paused, looking very reluctant.
He stammered, "There are only 100,000 taels of silver left in my house now." The gold has also been traded, and it hasn't been recovered yet......"
Gu Wangye waved his hand: "You don't have to take it back......"
After thinking for a moment, Gu Wang Ye said: "Let them scatter all your little gold, or lend it out, in short, don't take it back again for a while." Take out all the money in your house, and I will give it to the emperor. ”
Lord Lin was completely reluctant, but when he encountered this kind of thing, there was no other way.
Gu Wang Ye glared at Lord Lin: "What, you don't want to?"
Who wouldn't want this kind of way of destroying wealth and avoiding disasters?
It's been a while, and it's already very good to be able to save your life.
Lord Lin shook his head again and again, and said, "No, no, no." I plan to give you 110,000 taels for the prince. ”
110,000 taels?
What's going on?
Gu Wangye just frowned, but he already understood: "No, you just give it to the emperor." ”
Lord Lin leaned to Prince Gu's ear and said, "All this is up to you, Lord Gu." You have to bother a lot, for the sake of one of your merchants, you still have to say a few kind words in front of the emperor. ”
