Chapter 45: Reckoning (Rewarding and Changing)
"That's good, I'm curious, and it's hard to return Xu Aiqing's innocence if I don't find out, right?" Ling Qingcheng looked at him. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Your Majesty Shengming!" Xu Changhou's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat.
Ling Qingcheng just hoped that they would make a move, otherwise he wouldn't know what the mystery of the Xu Mansion was.
The group came to the Xu Mansion in a mighty way, and the Xu family also knelt on the ground pretending to be unexpected, as if they didn't know that someone would come.
Ling Qingcheng saw a red lantern passing through the crowd, and he knew it in his heart.
She had an agreement with Wei Mian to send someone to monitor the Xu Mansion in advance, and if there was a harvest, when she came, someone would carry a red lantern and flash by, and if there was no movement, she would appear with a pale yellow folding umbrella.
"Xu Aiqing, can I go in?" Ling Qingcheng deliberately turned around and asked, she was to give Xu Changhou more time to arrange, so that he could expose the private parts of his home.
As soon as people are nervous, they will keep checking important places, and there is nothing to find on the surface of Xu's mansion, so they have to dig deeper.
"Your Majesty, please. Xu Changhou took several ministers and Ling Qingcheng into the house together.
After sitting down, Ling Qingcheng spoke, "Then please ask Miss Xu to bring all the previous accessories." ”
Xu Changhou went down to order, and after a while, Xu Yuwei took the maid forward to salute.
"Courtier Xu Yuwei, see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live. ”
Gonggong Ming stepped forward and took the tray in the maid's hand and presented it to Ling Qingcheng.
The brown tray was filled with the day's accessories, but the important ones were replaced with similar styles.
"This hairpin is different from the one in the album, Miss Xu bring the hairpin in the album. ”
Xu Yuwei lowered her head and explained: "The hairpin that day was not the people's daughter's, but a gift from others, and the courtier's daughter felt chic, so she accepted it, and then thought that it was a little valuable, so she retreated." ”
"Oh, who gave you that hairpin?"
"Lord Chen's daughter, Miss Chen Qian. ”
Everyone's eyes looked at Chen Yide, and he immediately knelt on the ground: "Weichen doesn't know about this, and he still needs to ask the little girl to know." ”
Ling Qingcheng knew that this was a tough battle, Zhuang Ran's move was really good, pushing the matter on a person with a small official position, and when she went to check Chen Yide, they would definitely find something similar to deal with, even if they had to be punished, Zhuang Ran's faction would not have any effect, and in the end, it would only be her mistake and it would be over.
It's a good trick to abandon the car and protect the handsome.
However, Ling Qingcheng didn't think about using Xu Yuwei to punish the Xu Mansion at all, she just wanted Xu Yuwei to rebel against her, leak some tricks, and let her come to the Xu Mansion.
"It's just a hairpin, I still have to ask so many people to verify, it's really troublesome, Zhuang Xiang deals with these trivial matters on weekdays, isn't it very hard?"
Ling Qingcheng changed his words, making the people around him a little inexplicable, and solemnly answered lightly: "Your Majesty's words are serious, and it is the duty of a minister to share worries for Your Majesty." ”
Ling Qingcheng looked around, reached out and grabbed Zhuang Ran's sleeve, and pulled it hard to his side a few times.
Everyone gasped and stood aside, but their eyes glanced at Zhuang Ran, Your Majesty, what's the matter, he is actually pulling Prime Minister Zhuang!
Zhuang Ran was also stunned, the so-called wooing, could it really be that he was pulling his sleeve?
Ling Qingcheng saw that he didn't react, but had a tendency to retreat, so he coughed lightly to show his existence: "Zhuang Xiang, I want to whisper to you, you are too far away." ”
The corners of Zhuang Ran's eyebrows twitched, but he still leaned over slightly, letting Ling Qingcheng speak.
"Prime Minister Zhuang, I brought so many people here, I can't go home empty-handed, if that's it, how can I put my face? You are the prime minister, you have to protect me. ”
After hearing this, Zhuang Ran smiled faintly: "Since Your Majesty has come to the Xu Mansion, it is better to check it out, so as not to frame Lord Xu for this matter in the future." ”
Ling Qingcheng nodded with satisfaction, well, it's just for you to say this, Zhuang Fox, if you don't say it, how can I copy the house?
"Come on, check the Xu Mansion well, so that no one will make a big fuss about it!"
Ling Qingcheng gave an order, and the guards all began to search, Zhuang Ran sat very calmly on the side, although Xu Changhou was a little worried, but he was still calm.
Just as everyone was drinking tea peacefully, Ling Qingcheng suddenly stood up, lifted his robe and walked out.
The minister quickly stood up and followed, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, where are you going?"
"Do-it-yourself, plenty of food and clothing, I feel like it's fun to find something. ”
After Ling Qingcheng finished speaking, he ran out, and all the ministers were dumbfounded, what kind of trouble did Your Majesty make this about? No wonder the regent didn't let His Majesty leave the palace, and as soon as His Majesty left the palace, he went crazy......
The corners of Ling Qingcheng's mouth raised slightly, dealing with Zhuang Ran was to take her by surprise, Zhuang Ran's calculations were not leaky, she couldn't count him, so she could only play cards out of common sense.
She first found a few rooms for subordinates: "Xu Aiqing, who lives in this room?"
"Enlightenment...... Your Majesty...... It's the ...... of Weichen's mansion" Xu Changhou is over forty years old, his body is bloated, and he walks slowly, let alone runs, at this time he is out of breath and replies.
Ling Qingcheng didn't intend to listen to his answer, but found the answer himself.
"It seems that this is the subordinate's room, and there are needles and threads and shoe soles, but Xu Aiqing, your subordinate's beds are all made brocade quilts, tsk, this vase, the condition is good. ”
As soon as Xu Changhou wiped his sweat and was about to explain, Ling Qingcheng jumped out of the room and ran to the next room.
"This jade Ruyi is really chic. ”
"Xu Aiqing, there are so many seafood in your kitchen, I haven't eaten it a few times. ”
"Who is such a wide carved soft couch? This carving, this wood, exquisite!"
Ling Qingcheng visited all the way, and when he pushed the door again, a green light came into view, and sure enough, the jade screen was in Xu Changhou's room.
"Xu Aiqing, this screen is really beautiful! Where did you come from?"
Ling Qingcheng looked back at him.
"It's ...... It's ......"
Xu Changhou was going to find a pretext to hide it, but Zhuang Ran stepped forward to stop him and looked at Ling Qingcheng with a smile: "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"
Ling Qingcheng saw his thoughts, which meant to say, you toss so much, do you want to tear your face?
"Xu Aiqing is a secretary of the household department, and a year's salary is three hundred taels of silver, a total of five years, Xu Aiqing was also an official before, so it should be regarded as twenty years, so how much is it?"
Xu Changhou's face turned pale, he thought about putting Dong XC up, and the things he put on weekdays were all ordinary objects, he didn't expect Ling Qingcheng to calculate carefully.
The people around didn't reply, Ling Qingcheng naturally knew their thoughts, and no one would help her bring down Xu Changhou.
Ling Qingcheng said to Gonggong Ming: "Go to the side of the road and help me find three bookkeepers." ”
"Yes. "Gonggong Ming sent a few small servants with quick hands and feet out of the Xu family.
