Chapter 130: Drawing Dragons and Snakes
The next day, Luo Jinyan had just had breakfast, and Lu Zhenping came. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although Ge Wensheng is Luo Jinyan's big shopkeeper, he mainly takes care of the property left to her by the Li family, as well as a few granges and shops that Luo Shao bought sporadically for his daughter, Qingxin Tea Shop is just a small business, and it can't make a lot of money, the second shopkeeper Lu Zhenping is clearly the eldest lady's own person, Ge Wensheng is happy to worry, and as before, he handed over the tea shop to Lu Zhenping to manage, he just looked at the accounts regularly and gave some pointers.
Lu Zhenping was originally the most shrewd of the brothers, and after several years of experience, now at first glance, he is a businessman with a slight philistine, only those bright eyes, which are more transparent than before.
Xia Zhi, the big girl next to Luo Jinyan, personally poured tea for him, and the slightly light Lu'an melon slices were drunk just right in summer.
Luo Jinyan looked at the man in front of him and asked, "Something?" ”
"Something." Lu Zhenping said, opened the long box on his lap, handed the painting scroll inside to Xia Zhi's hand, and continued, "This is the portrait of Miss Sun of Guang'an Bofu, but the eldest lady looks familiar?" ”
Miss Sun of Guang'an Bo Mansion is Qiao Lianru, who is about to become Zhao You's wife.
Luo Jinyan quietly unfolded the scroll, took a cursory glance, his eyes were dull, only Xia Zhi, who was closest to her, saw her brows frown invisibly.
"Where did you get this portrait?" Luo Jinyan had already closed the scroll and asked Xia Solstice to put it back in the wooden box.
"You let us pay more attention to Guang'anbo's mansion, the sixth brother heard that Mrs. Guang'anbo is frail and sick, although she is in charge of the feed, but all the big and small matters are handed over to her to marry Mama Wang. And this grandmother has a maiden brother Wang Bao who is regarded as the root of his life, and he does some errands for Bofu in Pingsuri, Wang Bao is a good gambler, and often stays in the gambling house on Sifang Street, and his sister has made up for him for this, but he loses more and wins less. When the sixth brother learned that he was short of money, he lent him thirty taels of silver, and the man quickly lost all his money, so the sixth brother lent him another thirty taels ......."
Speaking of this, he looked at Luo Jinyan's face, Luo Jinyan was sitting precariously, his face was dignified, he couldn't see his joy or anger, but he didn't show disgust, he continued: "It's like this, Wang Bao owes the sixth brother more than 100 taels before and after, the sixth brother not only urged him to pay back the money, but also often invited him to drink, and the sixth brother got acquainted with him, but not long ago, Wang Bao didn't go to Sifang Street for a few days, and the sixth brother felt that something was wrong, so he waited a few more days, until a few days ago, Wang Bao appeared on Sifang Street again, The sixth brother asked him if he had gone out to hide his debts, and he quietly told the sixth brother that their Miss Sun was seriously ill, and Mrs. Guang Anbo could not trust others, so he sent their sister and brother to accompany Miss Sun to a separate courtyard of Mrs. Guang Anbo in Sanhe. “
Luo Jinyan's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked, "Qiao Lianru is sick?" What disease? ”
"Wang Bao said that Miss Qiao was suffering from a sudden illness, he asked Mama Wang, and Mama Wang only said that she was suddenly ill, but Miss Qiao was carrying Sanhe, and when she came back, she had already recovered." Lu Zhenping said.
Luo Jinyan nodded and motioned for him to continue.
Lu Zhenping continued: "The sixth brother came back to tell me this, our brothers all feel that this matter is strange, the prince of Rui Wang and Miss Qiao are scheduled to get married on the fifth day of the lunar month of this year, and there is still half a year, but at this time Miss Qiao is sick, and this disease comes and goes quickly." ”
So the sixth brother asked Wang Baoke if he had seen Miss Qiao, Wang Bao said that when Miss Qiao first came, even the maids in the house looked down on her, Ping Suli was hiding in the house and embroidering, and they naturally couldn't see these things in the outer courtyard, and then this Miss Qiao turned into a phoenix, and was married to the prince of Rui Wang, and Mrs. Guang Anbo treated her as a top child, and chose twenty or thirty people to serve her, and every time she came out, she was hugged by the front and back, and he had no chance to see it. But when I came back from Sanhe this time, I met him, at the age of fourteen or fifteen, he looked like a flower and a moon, and he had a blessed face, no wonder he could be taken by the concubine. ”
"Concubine Niangniang? Li Guifei? Luo Jinyan was taken aback, this information was something she didn't know before, she had always wondered why Zhao Ji would let Zhao You marry a broken family, but she didn't expect that there was still Li Guifei here.
"Yes, the little one just knew. It is said that Mrs. Guang'anbo and the second lady of the Qin family are handkerchiefs, a few years ago, Li Guifei wanted to find a Qin family master for the four princes, but Qin Mu declined, Mrs. Guang'anbo learned about this when she entered the palace, so she played a package ticket and asked Qin Mu's wife to deal with it, so she invited Qin Mu to be the master of the four princes. ”
"Since the four princes followed Qin Mu, they have made great progress in learning, and the emperor once praised him, Li Guifei was overjoyed, and she became more intimate with Mrs. Guang'anbo. Later, I somehow picked up this Miss Qiao, and in less than a month, Miss Qiao was given to marry the prince of Ruiwang. ”
Luo Jinyan nodded when he heard this, in his previous life, Gu Rao was pregnant last year, but in this life, Gu Rao has not reported that she is pregnant, which may be related to Li Wenzhong's situation.
In the previous life, Huo Ying did not recover, Li Wenzhong became the first assistant, Gu Rao has the support of the court, and her position is more stable, she is a person with extraordinary talents, if she wants to get pregnant, she will break her flattery, she is a Fanbang woman, and the most worrying thing is that she risked falling out of favor in the future and became pregnant with a dragon fetus, but she was still opposed by the courtiers and still could not establish a queen. In her previous life, Li Wenzhong supported her in the situation, but in this life, Li Wenzhong does not have this ability, so I think this is also the reason why she has not been pregnant for a long time.
This can allow her to survive for a few years, in her previous life, Gu Rao risked pregnancy, but in the end, the child was not saved, and she also died, only sitting on the queen's phoenix seat for half a year.
Gu Rao was given to Zhao Ji by Rui Wang's father and son, Li Guifei was like a great enemy at the beginning, but now she sees that her stomach has not moved for a long time, so she is stupid and moves.
In the previous life, although Zhao Xi was not favored, Li Guifei has been managing the harem and exercising the power of the deputy queen, Gu Rao has been sick for half a year as the queen, and the affairs of the harem are still in charge of Li Guifei. Luo Jinyan once suspected that Li Guifei had done something to Gu Rao, and Gu Rao died early, so after she entered the palace, she pointed the finger at Li Guifei, and Li Guifei's maiden family was pulling back again, Zhao Xi made Zhao Ji very disappointed, and she beat Li Guifei in one go.
Now it seems that Gu Rao's situation in the palace is not as good as in her previous life, but I don't know if this Qiao Lianru appeared next to Zhao You in her previous life?
At that time, she didn't pay attention to Zhao You's affairs at all, let alone Guang'anbo Mansion.
If she paid a little attention to Zhao You, how could there be anything later?
"How did you get this portrait?" Luo Jinyan continued to ask.
Wang Bao owed gambling debts again, and the sixth promised to lend him a hundred taels, but he wanted to meet this Miss Qiao. The sixth child was just a temptation, but he didn't expect Wang Bao to steal this portrait, it is said that Mrs. Guang'anbo invited a painter to paint it that day, and painted more than a dozen before and after, and selected the best one to send to the palace, and the rest stayed in Guang'anbo's mansion, Wang Bao stole this painting through the maid next to Miss Qiao. ”
"When the little one saw this painting, he felt a little familiar, and he felt that she looked like a person, so he brought it to the eldest lady to take a look."
