Chapter Forty-Six: Brother and Sister
Qin Youzhen thought of it and was about to do it. Want to read a book ??· yKANSHU COM, she first asked Qin Jinchun's two girls to help inquire. The two of them had to go back to the second room almost every other day, helping Qin Jinchun to see Xiao Xue's and handing over messages to each other, so they naturally knew the situation in the second room well. Qin Youzhen quickly found a day when the Xue family was not at home and Qin Bofu was at home, under the pretext of sending laba porridge, she led the two girls alone and went to the second room by car.
On this day, the Xue family actually went back to his parents' house to deliver Laba porridge. But that was just an excuse, she went more for the fine. The attitude of the Yamen of Shuntianfu was tough, even if the Xue family asked Qin Bofu to hand over his post, and asked his subordinates to clearly sacrifice the banner of "the son of the uncle of the country, the emperor", wanting to borrow the light of the emperor and the crown prince to deter the Shuntianfu and let them raise their noble hands against the Xue family, but no one bought it. As a local parent official in the capital, who still doesn't know who? What is the status of the second room of the Qin family, Shuntian Mansion Yin is clear in his heart, and he doesn't take the Xue family and Qin Bofu in his eyes at all.
If it was in the past, for the sake of the Qin family, he might have been softer. But now that the Huang family's concubines are concerned, the Qin family's long room and third room with titles are silent, and there are various gossip that the second room of the Qin family has actually annoyed the nobles in the palace, how can the Yin of Shuntian Mansion let them go? Not tossing them to death is already because of the Huang family's prior warning, and there is some restraint.
As soon as Shuntianfu's attitude was tough, the Xue family was out of line. Since they lost their status as imperial merchants, they are just ordinary merchants, at most their business is bigger. In the past, in the name of marriage with the Cheng'en Hou Mansion, they were invincible in the shopping mall, but in recent years, with the separation of the second room and the long room and the third room, they can no longer borrow the light of the Hou Mansion, and their lives have gradually become sad. Now that they don't even have this only protective umbrella, what else can they do? The Shuntian Mansion has already delivered a message, if they don't lose money again, I'm afraid that not only the shopkeeper of the Beijing branch will be imprisoned, but even the brothers of the head of the Xue family will not be able to escape from prison.
The people of the Xue family in the capital were panicked, some people hurriedly sent a letter to their hometown in Jiangnan, and some people tried to raise money in the semicolon, but more people still counted on the Xue family and Qin Bofu, and wanted them to go to the Hou Mansion of the two families to intercede. The Xue family wants face the most, and they are even more stubborn in front of their mother's family, how can they be willing to beg Qin Bai in a low voice? Book ???· y?K?A?N?S?H?U·COM She went to Xue's house almost every day, and discussed with them which people could ask for, and what princes and princes had ordered a circle, but it was useless. The Xue family also began to get impatient.
Qin Bofu didn't go to Xue's house with his mother, not wanting to face the disappointed eyes of his uncle's family. He still complained a little about them in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that the Xue family had made a mistake in selling something, and it was less than two catties, others would not have caught the handle of his family. He is now worried about his own evaluation, and the Xue family can't worry about him, and they cause him so much trouble, pestering him every day, asking him to talk to the emperor and the prince. If he can easily see the emperor and the crown prince, he can only nest in the six-rank position at a young age, and he can't enter an inch? !
Qin Bofu had long lost patience with outsiders, and only felt that they had always been a burden to him. If it weren't for satisfying their selfish interests, his mother Xue would not have forced him to marry his cousin Xiao Xue, and he missed a good opportunity to marry a big family. If he had married a wife with a better family background, how could he have broken up his family now and be so down? What use did the Xue family have except to provide him with some money? Even if it was money, it was now discounted. Asking for a few thousand taels of silver is like cutting their flesh, and they try every excuse to excuse it.
Qin Bofu was full of resentment, and when he thought of his future, he was anxious. When Qin Youzhen came to him, he was very impatient and said coldly: "If you have something, just say it, and leave if it's okay." Who still lacks Laba porridge now? I can't drink all the porridge every year! If you send it, it's just to cheapen those minions. ”
Qin Youzhen swallowed this breath.
She said to Qin Bofu solemnly: "Brother, I came today because I have something serious to discuss with you. I knew my mother didn't want to see me, so I saw her coming when she wasn't there. Don't think I'm shy, although the relationship between you and my brother and sister is not deep, but it is from the same father. We are all people in the second room, I will only hope that my mother's family is good, and I definitely don't want to see you unlucky. ”
Qin Bofu frowned: "What do you want to say?"
"You must be in trouble recently, right?" Qin Youzhen got straight to the point, "I heard about the Huang family, and I also inquired about my aunt, third uncle, and third aunt, and begged them to help." But they all said that they couldn't help it, because it was not the Huang family's own business, and there were others behind them. ”
"Nonsense!" Qin Bofu immediately exploded, "It's okay if the three rooms of the long house refuse to help, they are originally cold-hearted and cold-hearted." Why is this not the Huang family's business? It's just that they have a bad idea of getting along with us! Isn't it because we have detained his two unsuccessful children and grandchildren for a few days? If they don't cause trouble for our family, I can't detain them. Besides, they are here with me, I don't know how much money they spent on me, and the money hasn't come back yet, so why should I let them go?! I didn't ask the Huang family to ask for the silver back, and they were actually embarrassed to cause me to lose my official position?
Qin Youzhen said coldly: "What is my brother worried about? Of course, this matter was the hand of the Huang family, but behind it was not just the meaning of his family. I've already been to Huang's house and explored the wind. The Huang family is just the grandmother's family of the queen's mother, and the relationship with the prince is even farther than our family. The Xue family was fined silver, which was an order from the Shuntian Mansion. Most of the Huang family members serve in the army, and they can support the Ministry of Mobilization and the Shuntian Mansion?
Qin Bofu was not convinced: "Why can't the Huang family support it? In the past, the Wang family was more beautiful than his family, and it was not that he could handle whoever he wanted? If it weren't for the Wang family's ability, you would be eager to recognize the eldest uncle Chengenhou as your father, and you wouldn't be able to rush to the family!"
Qin Youzhen endured her anger: "How can the Wang family and the Huang family be compared? The Wang family is a civil official family with a high degree of protégés, and there are countless protégés. The Huang family has always been in the army, and they are relatives, if his family has a wider range of friends, the imperial historians can stare at them and scold endlessly. Now that the Huang family wants to deal with you, Yushitai has not moved, which has already shown that this is not a private matter of the Huang family. You still won't believe me, but stick to your own ideas. No wonder the elders in the long room and the three rooms all say that you and your mother are both people who don't understand, and what you say is in vain, but it is thankless. I understand it now!"
She saw that Qin Bofu's face was dark, and she simply said word by word: "You have suffered such a disaster, and even I have been implicated." My husband should have been promoted smoothly, set a new vacancy, and be able to take office in a new year, but now he was stopped by the officials. My brother thinks I'm impatient to tell you what you have and don't have? If you continue to be confused, you will be wrong again and again, and you will not be the only one who is unlucky!"
Qin Bofu's face changed, although his face was still very dark, he still couldn't help asking: "What the hell is going on? The Huang family won't even let you go? Could it be that Changfang didn't say good things for you?"
"The Huang family has no complaints against me. Qin Youzhen said lightly, "They don't want to be angry with me, it's just that there are some things that are not their turn to call the shots." You also think about it carefully, even the Huang family can't be the master, but who else holds a grudge against your mother and you? Most of your accidents are not because you detained the people of the Huang family, but because you made a mistake in offering beauty, right? When I heard about the Huang family's girl, I couldn't believe it, how dare my brother? If you just offered a girl who was born like the queen's mother to the emperor, that's all, but you spent a lot of money to dress that girl up like the queen mother when she was alive, and let her imitate the queen's words and deeds. Do you know what it means for the emperor to see such a thing?!"
Qin Bofu flicked his sleeves irritably: "What can it mean? The emperor has been established for so many years, and he never thought that after he was established again, there are a few ladies in the palace, but none of them can be concubines seriously, and the highest position is the princess." It can be seen that the emperor is still thinking about our queen. In this case, what is wrong with me offering him a beauty who looks like a mother and is like a mother in the reincarnation? That Huang Yiqiu is incompetent, has only a face, and fails to please the emperor, so it's just that I chose the wrong person. If the emperor was angry and executed Huang Yiqiu, then I would believe that he really didn't like that girl. But he left the girl's life, which shows that he is still moved by her face. Since the emperor is moved, why should he be angry with me? What did my mother and I do wrong?!"
Qin Youzhen closed her eyes helplessly. She understood that if the Xue family and Qin Bofu had such thoughts, it was no wonder that they couldn't understand the anger of the long room and the third room, and they didn't understand why the emperor and the Huang family were angry. So what else is there to say? He won't listen to it. Unless the emperor explains what he says to him in person, he will only hold his own thoughts and will not listen to a word of advice from others.
She simply changed her words: "Brother thinks that the emperor will be tempted by the face of the girl of the Huang family, but have you ever thought about what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will think?"
"His Royal Highness the Prince?" Qin Bofu was stunned, and hesitated for a while.
"Yes, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Qin Youzhen said with a straight face, "He used to be sick and weak, so he didn't mention it, but now that his health has improved, he is no longer weak and sick, and he can't go to the court to govern." Although he is not a monarch yet, no one else can compete with him for the throne, either a monarch or a half-monarch. The elder brother thought that when he saw that the people from his foreign family had made a beauty in the image of his mother and wanted to sacrifice it to the palace, and perhaps he was still counting on that beauty to add another heir to the emperor, which might threaten his throne, what would he think in his heart?"
Qin Bofu thought about it carefully, and his heart suddenly cooled.
