Chapter 12 The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit
As the saying goes, the hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. This kind of thing has not happened before, but after receiving the employer's money but killing the employer for someone else, this can not only earn two shares of money but also get rid of some future troubles, and the media middleman like Que Lou who does all the work is not less done.
Su Chaoxi suspected that Sun Sili was not a matter of one or two days, she had secretly investigated when she picked up the baby girl, and it was impossible for the Queen Mother to do anything with many people, and it was certain that there was another group of people who were mixed with the momentum of the Queen Mother, but before she could investigate, they put the baby girl back. Sun Sili also took the employer's money and then gave them the work to do, so it is absolutely possible for him to collect two pieces of money, one to help the Empress Dowager clean up the handles and messes left behind, and the other to help others hide the mixed snow of the baby girl behind the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager has been in the harem for a long time, how can there be so many secret guards to help her clean up the baby girl, if she can't keep it, the Empress Dowager will pay for it, and Sun Sili will do things.
As for the other group of people, it is estimated that the Queen Mother didn't expect it, but after all, she smelled the signs, so she had to find out who was stealing chickens and dogs behind her back.
Sun Sili raised his eyebrows, clapped his hands and applauded: "Jin Se, your brain is still very good." ”
Su Chaoxi stretched out his foot and kicked him: "Come on, you don't lack virtue in doing this, in the end, we are not among the people who are being played, tell me, who is the other group?" ”
"The conscience of the industry is in the rules, you guess it, it's yours, but I can't just tell you the identity of the employer, I have principles."
You can't tell, guess either. Su Chaoxi glanced at him: "You can't say this, then you can always say about my son, right?" ”
"Your son?" Sun Sili frowned: "Heaven and earth can be learned, your son has never hired me." ”
"I mean, my son's whereabouts." Su Chaoxi glared, her son was so young, where did he get the money to hire him.
"How do I know this? It doesn't matter to me if your son is lost, what I do is a serious business, and I haven't done human trafficking or anything. Sun Sili made an oath.
"With your virtue, you will do it sooner or later!" Su Chaoxi snorted coldly, and no longer entangled with him, planning to go to Wen Sheng's side to set up the news.
Sun Sili seemed to see her purpose and reminded: "Don't go to the gilded building, that kid has been hiding debts recently, and it is estimated that he will not open for a while." ”
Originally, Su Chaoxi didn't believe it, but when she arrived at the door of the gilded building with the door closed, she had to believe it if she didn't believe it.
As his name suggests, this Wensheng man has always been someone else's plague god, why has he become a shrunken turtle now? Whose debt did he owe? How come you've never heard of it?
"Miss, I'm kind of looking for you." Xiao Shan, who ran out of nowhere, was so tired that she straightened her back.
Su Chaoxi pointed to the gilded building: "Has it not been open here since the morning?" ”
"It's not just morning, the door has been closed since last night, I was worried about something happened to the young lady yesterday, so I came to knock on the door, who knew that the guy in the store said that his boss would not let open the door if he was killed, you said that you are not angry." Xiao Shan said.
It seems that he is really hiding from debts, Su Chaoxi pouted.
"Miss, the old lady just said that since you are back, then you should go to the palace to apologize to the Queen Mother, Miss, are you going now?" Xiao Shan said.
Su Chaoxi nodded, if you don't go, you have to go.
With the lesson of the last time, this time Su Chaoxi entered the palace, looked at the nose and nose, resolutely did not look at other places, resolutely did not fool in the fun, cherished life and stayed away from gossip.
Who would have thought that this time she didn't want to listen to gossip, but gossip found her.
In the Ciqing Palace, the Empress Dowager was looking at the folds, Su Chaoxi waited at the door for a while before being summoned, and when she entered the door, she saw a few stewards coming with a thick stack of folds. The Empress Dowager called softly in the inner room: "Is Miss Su here?" Come on in. ”
Su Chaoxi hurriedly went over and saluted respectfully: "See the Empress Dowager." ”
"Get up, come and sit here." The Empress Dowager pointed to the seat on the side with a kind face, and said with a smile: "Seeing that you are okay, the mourning family is relieved." Now that you have come just in time, come and help the mourning family to judge and rob, which of these families is better? ”
Su Chaoxi walked over and sat down with a little uneasiness, glanced at the roster in her hand, and her eyelids twitched.
"It just so happens that you are the same age, you young people often walk around Yuncheng, and you know each other a little bit, you can take a look, which one is better for the marriage of this expeditionary general?" The Empress Dowager threw out depth charges unhurriedly, and Su Chaoxi quietly took over the roster, but felt that it was the biggest hot potato she had ever received in her life.
Suddenly, I remembered the gossip I had heard about the expeditionary general in the palace before, and I couldn't help but slander in my heart, didn't the empress dowager intend to give him Princess Heshuo? Why is the princess's name not on this roster?
"How? Which girl is more suitable? ”
Su Chaoxi put down the roster with a light smile: "Empress Dowager, you are exalting me, where can I decide this kind of thing, why don't you call the expeditionary general and let him choose by himself?" ”
"You girl is simple-minded, if the expeditionary general is interested, can the mourning family call him to choose a good choice? But now that he should have reached the age of marriage, he refused to marry a wife, and the secretary of the ministry also had no choice with him, so he asked the mourning family to help him choose. ”
Nangong Qing, the secretary of the ministry, is the father of the expeditionary general Nangong Yi, I heard that the father's discipline is very strict, and the three sons under his knees have all trained hard since childhood, and now they are all pillars of talent, especially this eldest son Nangong Yi, who is the pride of the family, the first general in the Nangong family in the past dynasties.
Su Chaoxi sighed secretly, why did she choose to enter the palace today? It's really going out and not looking at the yellow calendar, people will die. I had to pick up the roster and look at it again, most of them are the daughters of today's prominent families, and there are even more girls from the Yun family, looking left and right, she really can't think of who to offend.
That's right, it's a job to offend people. Either offended the capable general, or offended the daughter of a sweetheart. However, according to the status of the Nangong family, it is estimated that the offended can only be the former.
"How is Miss Su looking?" The Empress Dowager threw a potato.
"Back to the Empress Dowager, the daughters on this roster have their own spring and autumn, and I really don't know how to select them." Su Chaoxi threw it back again.
"It seems that the people selected by the mourning family are not enough to see, which makes Miss Su so embarrassed." The Empress Dowager then threw it over.
"The Empress Dowager is serious, Chaoxi just thinks that these daughters are very good, and they are quite a good match for the expeditionary generals, but Chaoxi suddenly feels that there is a candidate who seems to be more suitable for the generals." Su Chaoxi took the potato and was ready to give it a go.
"Oh? Let's hear it. ”
"Earlier, I heard that Princess Heshuo has a free and easy temperament, generous and hearty, informal, and even more capable of writing and martial arts, she is really the first woman in Dongluo, if she and the general can get together, it must be a match made in heaven." Su Chaoxi put down the roster and raised his eyes and smiled.
The Empress Dowager was silent when she heard this, but just looked at her fixedly, and her heart was furious. In the middle of the night, the Empress Dowager picked up the cup and said as if unintentionally: "Temperament is free and easy, generous and hearty, informal, and capable of literature and martial arts, I am afraid that there is more than one Heshuo, if such a woman is compatible with the general, then in the eyes of the mourning family, there is another person who is more suitable." ”
Su Chaoxi's eyelids jumped: "Who is it that the Empress Dowager said?" ”
The Empress Dowager lowered her eyes and took a sip of tea, but she never looked at her, until she put down the teacup, she suddenly raised her eyes to look at Su Chaoxi, and her tone was tepid: "Miss Su is also quite suitable." ”
I'm a god, how can the Queen Mother tell a cold joke on a hot day? Su Chaoxi smiled awkwardly and waved his hand: "How come, there is no princess who can be good at martial arts, and she doesn't know anything about poetry, books, etiquette, and righteousness, let alone martial arts. My old lady often said that I was stubborn, and I still had children at home, but I often stayed in the deep streets and narrow alleys, so how embarrassed to compare with Princess Heshuo. The Empress Dowager praised it falsely. ”
The Empress Dowager raised her eyes: "Miss Su is in a hurry to clear up, is she afraid that the mourning family will order this mandarin duck spectrum?" ”
The sun and the moon can be seen in the heavens, the earth, the sun and the moon, but she thought about the gossip before and planned to give the queen mother a step down, but she never thought that she would be trapped on the steps, this is not child's play, you can't mess with the mandarin duck score!
"The Empress Dowager is serious, and she is not in a hurry to clear it up, but just to explain the facts."
"Miss Su doesn't seem to have met the general, right?" The Empress Dowager threw a giant bomb: "Since that's the case, it's a friend, let's go to the General's Mansion tomorrow to meet you." ”
What is self-inflicted and cannot live, what is called cocooning and self-restraint, she is. Su Chaoxi has been drooping her head since she left the palace gate, what kind of evil style is this empress dowager smoking, the kind of business and political person in the Nangong family is the most treacherous and cunning, and she is usually her first-class evasion object, but now she wants her to visit? I really won't burn incense to sin against God, and I won't speak to offend people. She really has a brain in the water to recommend Princess Heshuo, and the gossip is very harmful.
This gloomy mood lasted until she returned home, and when she entered the house and wanted to hug Anchen, she found that her son had been dropped into a daughter, and her daughter was not with her, Su Chaoxi's gloomy mood reached its peak, and she nested in the quilt without even eating dinner, she had a son to find, the queen mother to be perfunctory, the expeditionary general to see, and various conspiracies to analyze, she only felt physically and mentally tired and didn't love, and she needed to sleep well and recuperate.
Early the next morning, Jin Niang, who couldn't wait, rushed into the door with Xiaoshan and grabbed a certain girl: "Hurry up, I want to be glamorous to see the general today, maybe it will be done after meeting." ”
What the hell has happened? Su Chaoxi plunged into the quilt, she wants to spend the rest of her life with the bed, to hell with that general!
