Chanyi looked at him and was slightly strange: "What's wrong with the second brother?" Today, my mother also asked Mama Su to come over and spread the word, saying that the second brother will be back in a few days, and his mother is cleaning up his yard at home. ”

Chu Shaoyuan gently rubbed her soft cheeks, and sighed helplessly: "I don't know where the fourth brother got the booklet of the Ministry of Industry Yamen, saying that the second brother is greedy for ink in office, and he wants me to call for the position of the Ministry of Works." ”

Chanyi's heart tightened, and she hurriedly asked, "You agreed?"

Chu Shaoyuan shook his head: "He obviously wants to use this to blackmail me, if I really agree, I'm afraid that he will turn his head and stab this matter to his father, I'm afraid that the second brother will be justified and can't say it clearly, I'm just worried about the second brother's appointment now." ”

Chanyi's heart warmed, and she stretched out her hand to hug him, "Don't worry about this, although the second brother was put in Fujian by the emperor because of the river work, but the second brother is not the one in charge of the river, if it is serious, the fourth prince is more suspicious, not to mention that there is a Zhang family son in front of him, how can the second brother become this bird." ”

Chu Shaoyuan smiled lightly, "What Wanwan said is that a person who is so cautious as the second brother will naturally not leave any handles." ”

It's just that if someone has the intention to fabricate the facts, the second brother is useless no matter how cautious he is.

Chu Shaoyuan decided to go to the Ministry of Industry in the afternoon and secretly completed this matter, and the provincial elder was so worried.

And Chanyi comforted Chu Shaoyuan, and suddenly remembered the silver she asked Shen Shuofeng to use before, she was a little restless, this silver was given to her by the second brother from her position, if the second brother's future was ruined because of this bit of silver, she would hate herself to death.

But Chu Shaoyuan had already gone to the yamen, and in the middle of the afternoon, she couldn't directly order someone to call Chu Shaoyuan back, she thought left and right in the house, and decided to go to Xie's house to ask the grandfather who had already paid attention to the meaning of the grandfather, if this matter is tricky, see if there is any way to remedy it, no matter how bad it is, the second brother must be taken out.

Thinking of this, she shouted Jinping: "Go and wrap the snacks given from the palace yesterday, and let's go to Xie Mansion." ”

A few maids in Jinping hurriedly wrapped the ebony box placed in the blue yarn cabinet with Sanjiang cloth, and went to the gatehouse to call a car, and then went to Xie Mansion with Chanyi.

Xie Fu is very prosperous because of marrying his daughter in the past few days, Xie Feiyun's family affairs are followed by Xie Shuangyun's family affairs, fortunately, there is a gap of half a year between these two family affairs, and it will not be too troublesome to deal with.

Third Mrs. Xie Zhou was busy with the Laba Festival in a few days, and when she heard the maid come in and say that Princess An was coming, she couldn't help but be surprised.

Obviously, I only saw my niece at Xia's house a few days ago, why did she come to visit again not long after.

While wondering, he ordered someone to change the clothes of the hospitality, put on his cloak and went to the flower hall.

As soon as Chanyi saw Zhou, she hurriedly greeted her, and didn't even give Zhou a salute, and asked directly: "Third uncle, have you heard about the impeachment?"

Zhou frowned and looked at the people serving around him, and those maids and ladies consciously withdrew from the flower hall with a very good eye.

Only then did she nod and said: "I heard what your third uncle said, he said that it doesn't matter, they are all people who throw stones and ask for directions, and they can't hurt the Xie family in the slightest. ”

She let Chan Yi to the Taishi chair, and looked at Chan Yi with a smile: "Although these impeachment matters in the court look dangerous, in fact, if there is no real evidence, most of them are thunder and rain, and they are not hindered, but it is difficult for you to run so hard." ”

Where did Chanyi come here specifically for this matter, but when she heard the third aunt say this, she could be regarded as a stone in her heart, and after a pause, she asked again: "Third aunt, I heard from the prince today that someone got my second brother's greedy ink scroll on the Fujian River Workers, and my second brother just followed those plate merchants or stone merchants to do business together, and he took a price difference in the middle, this kind of thing is still a partnership with the Zhang family's son, how did it become greedy for ink?"

"Third uncle, otherwise, you can help me ask my grandfather whether this matter will involve the second brother's career. ”

Zhou didn't know about Xia Mingche in Fujian, at this time when he heard Chanyi ask, he couldn't help but beat a little drum in his heart, and couldn't help but hesitate a little, her father-in-law's temperament was simply stinky and hard, she thought about it, she still felt that it was inappropriate, and shook her head lightly at Chanyi: "If you say anything else, it's okay to say, if you talk about the river work, I'm just afraid that the old lady will be angry, although he has never valued money, although it is true, but he also doesn't like the juniors to abandon their own integrity for a little money." ”

Chanyi couldn't help but hang her head and get frustrated, if only she hadn't opened her mouth to take so much silver from her second brother.

She originally meant to buy some property for her second brother and eldest brother at home, but because of a moment of soft-heartedness, she gave Shen Shuofeng something to save him.

What can I do?

Chan Yi couldn't help but sigh again, it would be good if Chu Shaoyuan was here, at least he could help come up with ideas.

Seeing that she was a little depressed, Zhou comforted her and said, "Don't worry too much, when your third uncle comes back, your aunt will talk to your third uncle and see if he has any ideas." ”

Chanyi knew that Zhou was comforting her, pursed her lips, and thanked her: "Third uncle, then you will have to worry about it." ”

Zhou smiled and asked her not to be too sad, and said a few more homely words, and Chanyi said goodbye from the Xie family.

When I got home, a little maid came in at the second door to tell me that it was Shen Ye who asked to see the prince.

Chan Yi frowned slightly, since the two of them got married, Shen Shuofeng often went in and out of the palace, and the people in the palace saw that he had close contacts with Chu Shaoyuan, and they all called him Shen Ye.

I just don't know what happened to him coming over at this time.

Chanyi nodded: "Let him wait in the outer courtyard first, send a few servants to serve, and see him when the prince comes back." ”

The little maid nodded yes and went down.

Chanyi leaned on the big pillow and rubbed her eyebrows, there are too many things in the past few days, she knows that Chu Shaoyuan will definitely have to deal with these people after he comes out, although she did not make friends with these nobles in the previous life, but most of them are human contacts, and although she is in charge of the Chengbohou Mansion, but because it is the second room, she will not go over the big room, so although she has contributed a lot to these things, she has few real hearts.

But now not only do you have to contribute, but you also have to be careful not to be burdened by these people one day, it's really too tired.

Jinping saw that she was tired, and stepped forward to put the bird's nest brought from the big kitchen on the table, "The princess is tired, let the slave maid help you press it, and eat some bird's nest to make up for it later, you are too tired these days, and you have lost a lot of weight." ”

Chanyi nodded, and while letting Jinping massage his head, he said: "In a few days, it will be the wedding date of Second Brother Pei, you take a pair of red porcelain double happiness flowers from the treasury, the eldest brother and the second brother Pei have always been good friends, and the number of gifts on our side can not be less, I don't know what gifts the prince will add to him, but the second brother Pei can protect the prince all the way to withdraw from the Tartar safely, and it will not be too bad." ”

Jinping said: "The slave maid thinks that the red porcelain flower is not as good as sending a pair of enamel flower bottles with happy eyebrows, you think, if it is used as an ornament, the red porcelain is good, but the double happiness pattern on the top is used only when it is a parent, where will ordinary people use it on ordinary days, but I am afraid that it is also included in the warehouse, but it is not as practical as the enamel flower pattern bottle, and the meaning is good. ”

Chanyi thought about it, so she asked Jinping to do it.

The cold smoke on the second door came again, and said, "Shen Ye said that he had something to ask to see the princess." ”

Chanyi felt strange in her heart, since Shen Shuofeng took refuge in Chu Shaoyuan, she had discussed things with Chu Shaoyuan on weekdays, although she did not shy away from her, but when she thought of the yin secrets in Mingyan Tower, she felt shuddered, so every time they discussed things, she avoided them, and she could pretend that she didn't know what Chu Shaoyuan was doing without looking or listening.

Since Shen Shuofeng said that he wanted to see him, it must be something important.

She glanced at Jin Se: "Let him go to the flower hall." ”

In the flower hall, a screen painted with flowers of the four seasons is placed, and the thin screen covered with veil can faintly see the graceful woman behind her.

Shen Shuofeng lowered his eyes and did not look behind the screen, his face was still perennially cold.

"The prince asked his subordinates to go to Fujian to look for drawings, but his subordinates did not find the drawings, but he found another thing, Qin Bohou and the matter was urgent, and the subordinates did not dare to delay, so they came back quickly. ”

As he spoke, he bowed down and lowered his voice very low, "Qin Bohou is only afraid that he will have a rebellion, when his subordinates were in Fujian, he accidentally found that Fuzhou and Quanzhou were different, and there were traces of foreigners coming and going in front of many yamen, although it was not certain whether it was a Buyeo people, but there were several times when his subordinates had met with them, and their hidden aura was very strange, and it was not the traditional martial arts of our Central Plains." ”

Chanyi's heart trembled, Qin Bohou's family is still in prison in Dali Temple, and the charges have been decided, originally I heard Chu Shaoyuan say that it was the autumn queen, but now it is winter, seeing that Laba is about to arrive, but it has not been executed for a long time.

A thought suddenly welled up in her heart, which almost startled her.

Could it be that the emperor wanted to catch turtles in an urn and use Qin Bohou's family as bait to see if anyone else would appear later.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly called Jin Se to come, "You go to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry and let the prince go home, and say that there is something at home." ”

Jin Se saw that Chanyi was very anxious, so he nodded hurriedly and walked out of the house.

Chu Shaoyuan was discussing affairs with Zhao Guangyao and a few Langzhong stewards in the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry, and when he saw Jin Se coming over to say that there was something at home, he felt strange in his heart, but fortunately, the matter was almost discussed, and he casually ordered a few words to his subordinates, and then returned to the house anxiously.
