433. Secrets
In May, the weather is unpredictable, one moment the sky is still clear, the next moment it is cloudy, the air is full of moisture, and a mountain rain is coming.
Chan Yi looked at the sky in a daze through the window lattice covered with a thin layer of peach blossom paper, and the account book in her hand was crooked, since Chu Shaoyuan sent the news a few days ago, there has been no news, she really wants to ask him where the second brother is now? The plague in Quanzhou has been controlled, and what happened to the lawsuit between the four princes and the eldest uncle?
She was anxious, but there was no one in her hand who could inquire about the news, as soon as Shen Shuofeng left, she was like her eyes were covered, and she could only rely on her father to give her grandmother a morning ceremony every day, and most of the news was useless.
Her mother's illness began to recur in the past few days, and she was lying on the sickbed and looked at her lack of energy, so that in addition to worrying about Fujian's affairs, she also had to take care of her mother.
Jin Se came in with a plate of red cherries, and happened to see Chan Yi rubbing her forehead with her hand, and persuaded gently: "Miss has been reading the account books for more than an hour, take a rest first, eat some cherry fruits to relieve fatigue, some things are always worried and useless, life should be passed." ”
Chanyi opened her eyes and looked at her, and smiled slightly, "Even Jin Se can say a big truth." ”
"Miss made fun of the slave and maid again, the slave and maid think that nothing will happen to the second master," Jin Se said as he put the cherries on the table, and by the way, he simply cleaned up the messy pen and ink on the table, and his voice was very soft, "And the lady has fallen ill, and the lady still has to support the middle feed of the inner house, if you are so worried, in case you are sick and the second master happens to come back, who will the middle feed of this inner house be handed over?" ”
Jin Se has always disliked these big truths, and now even she has begun to say such things, which can only show that the current situation is really black and she doesn't know anything, so the people around her choose to comfort themselves with such words.
She sighed leisurely in her heart, put down the account book in her hand, and pinched a red cherry, "At this time, there are cherries, we don't have such big cherries in Yunfu City, where did they come from?" ”
Chan Yi changed her head, and Jin Se was naturally kind, and said with a smile: "It was Prince An who ordered someone to send it to our house, saying that the cherries at the end of eastern Zhejiang were ripe, and the boats, carriages and horses arranged overnight were sent to Yunfu, and as soon as they were sent to the palace today, the prince sent someone to give our family two baskets." ”
Yes, Chu Shaoyuan was canonized as a prince more than ten days ago, and now he is the youngest prince of Dayan, a year and a half earlier than the previous life.
Chanyi's eyes immediately softened, and when she looked at the cherry, she thought of the past events before, and couldn't help but smile a little at the corner of her mouth.
Jinxin came in to say that Mrs. Xie came to the mansion as a guest, and Mrs. Xia asked Chanyi to go over to entertain the guests.
Chanyi was very surprised in her heart, it was only half a month later, and the eldest aunt visited again, what happened again, so urgent?
She hurriedly got up, changed into elegant guest clothes, and hurried to Fushoutang.
As soon as she opened the curtain, she heard Mrs. Xie's pleasant voice a little low, as if she was saying something important, she turned the screen and walked inside, and the sound reached her ears.
“…… The lord has been conscientious in Quanzhou all these years, especially in recent years, the waters of Fujian are not very peaceful, there are not only floods on the sea, but also the Japanese people, those Japanese people burn and loot all evil, the old man finally took care of Quanzhou, the fourth prince saved the master, but also because he admired the old man's personality, otherwise how could he almost give up his own life to save the master? ”
There was a little choked in Mrs. Xie's voice, and it could be heard that she was not a person who cried often, and those choked were very light and light, which was the result of her extreme suppression.
"Now he is going to be impeached, my lord has been in Quanzhou all these years, and his political achievements are obvious to all, how can he erase all his previous achievements because of this year's natural disasters?"
Chan Yi stepped in, and when she heard the last sentence was this, she was shocked in her heart, how could Yu Shi impeach his uncle? In the previous life, the eldest uncle had been placed in Fujian, and finally was promoted to the position of the political secretary of Fujian Zuobu, why was he impeached at this time in this life?
When Mrs. Xie saw Chanyi come in, she hurriedly stopped talking, although her smile was still as kind as usual, but Chanyi saw that she was smiling a little reluctantly, too, she was still worried a moment ago, but at this moment she had to forcibly put on a smiling face, and no one could be as natural as usual.
Old Madam Xia waved at her and called her over, "Evening, did the letter handed to you by Tianyi Shu mention the matter of Fujian a few days ago?" ”
She didn't ask a superfluous sentence, but went straight to the point, which shows that Mrs. Xia attaches great importance to this matter.
Although Chu Shaoyuan handed her a letterhead a few days ago, Mrs. Xia didn't ask about it, she has always been very relieved about Chanyi, knowing what kind of character her grandson is, and she will not do anything worrying.
Chanyi looked at Qiao Shi and said, "It's just that the second brother's condition has improved a lot, and the fourth prince has contracted the disease, and the others are not mentioned," As soon as her words fell, Qiao's face couldn't stop being disappointed, and she couldn't help but ask softly, "What problems did the eldest uncle encounter in Fujian?" ”
Qiao Shi shook his head, it's not that he doesn't want to say it, it's just that there are some political affairs that even she can't do, what can she do if she takes care of a child at night?
Chanyi thought for a while and said: "Now that the second brother is sick in Fujian, although the imperial court sent someone to deal with the plague, I heard the prince say that the plague in Fujian is still spreading, and Wanwan feels that the second brother is not by the eldest uncle's side at this time. Although we don't know about Fujian in Yunfu City, the prince always has to have a way to stretch out his hand, and the eldest aunt doesn't make it clear at this time, and the prince doesn't know where to stretch out even if he wants to stretch out. ”
Mrs. Xie came over, obviously it was not just as simple as crying to Mrs. Xia, Chu Shaoyuan was winning the emperor's heart, since he could follow Chu Shaoyuan's path, why did he have to take a long detour? Naturally, I wanted him to reach out and help.
Besides, the two families are so close by in-laws, if they don't ask the Xia family for help, do they still have to ask those who can't be trusted?
Qiao nodded, her flustered heart calmed down a little, and said in a low voice: "This matter is very tricky, it's not that my aunt doesn't want to say it, it's just that I'm afraid of adding trouble to you, but now I can't care about it so much," she wiped the sweat on her hands lightly with Luopa, and quickly raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Xia and Chanyi, "They all say that the floods and plagues in Fujian are all about the floods and plagues, but they don't know that the most important thing in Fujian is not these, but another thing that the old man has found out openly and secretly over the years......"
……
ps: These days, Xiaoyi is in the field, it is difficult to find Internet cafes, and there are fewer of them, I'm sorry.
