Qu Jincai used to be the slave of the Qi family. His father is a servant of the Qi family, and he has been an errand boy in the Qi family since his grandfather. His mother was the nurse sister of the county lord of Qinghe, who married into the Qi family with the county lord, and later served as Qi Jinzhi's nurse.

When he was 20 years old, thanks to the grace of the head of the family, Master Qi, Qu Jincai cut off his slavery status and became a good citizen, and successively opened several tea rooms and wine shops in Cypress Hutong, Shaanxi Lane and other alleys.

Because of his bright mind and good management, the business of several shops is very prosperous, and in just a few years of hard work, Qu Jincai, a hairy boy born as a slave, has earned a lot of silver money, and has become a wealthy merchant on the streets of the capital, known as 'Uncle Qu'.

Of course, these are all official statements.

In fact, many people know very well that Qu Jincai is just a slave released by the Qi family to do business. On the surface, he is a big businessman with beautiful scenery, but in fact, he obeys the orders of the lord in everything.

The dividends from the business every year are all from the master's family, and he is just an errand steward, just more decent than ordinary stewards.

This is very common in the homes of powerful people and eunuchs.

The imperial court did not allow officials to do business, nor did they allow the nobles to take profits from the people, but 'there are policies and countermeasures', and the lords of these wealthy families could not come forward in person, so they picked a trustworthy slave and released them, and took the name of the owner to help the master's family take care of business.

Don't believe it, Qu Jincai's parents and brothers have a total of more than a dozen people, but he is the only one who is not only a slave, but also a family member who is still on an errand in the family.

His parents are now the most prominent stewards of the Qi family, and his younger brother is also the steward of the outer courtyard trusted by the housewife.

Even the daughter-in-law who married later was also a big maid who had to be used by the lord of Qinghe County, the main mother.

…… By all indications. Qu Jincai is still under the orders of the Qi family, and his so-called shops are also owned by the Qi family.

In the same way, what he did is also inseparable from the Qi family.

Now Qu Jincai was sued by a letter to Shuntianfu. It is also reasonable that its former owner, the Qi family, will be held accountable.

"Yang Jiye? Isn't he an imperial historian, why is he still in charge of criminal proceedings? ”

Qi Jinzhi sat in the outer study with a gloomy face, and couldn't help frowning after listening to the housekeeper's reply.

In fact, what he wanted to ask more was why Yang Jiye poked out this matter.

You must know that Yang Jiye was born in the British government. The British Mansion and the Qi Family are both the four major mansions, and they don't have much to do with each other on the surface, but in fact, the four families share weal and woe. An ally that wins and loses.

"You can't blame him for this,"

Qi Ling leaned back in his chair first, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was contemplating. It seems to be taking a nap. A deep voice floated faintly, "Someone is eyeing the four of us, so Yang Jiye just came back from an errand in Jizhong, and was stopped by a servant girl who complained." Then several strong men chased her and shouted and killed, Yang Jiye knew that there were ghosts in it, so he could only grit his teeth and follow. ”

Yang Jiye is the imperial history, and what he wants is to be honest and honest, and selfless with an iron face. The court supervises hundreds of officials, and when they encounter lawlessness in private, they should come forward.

If Yang Jiye watched the 'poor woman' who stopped his carriage being slashed and killed in the street, he would stand by and watch. Don't do it with his imperial history, if he is attacked by other imperial histories. It is also possible to affect the Yang family.

The most important thing is that if Yang Jiye really chooses like that, the Qi family will still be inseparable. And it has the potential to make things even bigger.

Rather than this, it is better for Yang Jiye to poke it out personally, at least he can control the situation within a relatively safe range.

Qi Jinzhi quickly figured out the joints and nodded, "It's because I'm so angry that I didn't think of this." That's right, if it weren't for Yang Jiye, as soon as we returned to Beijing today, it would not be the housekeeper who came to greet us, but the servant of Shuntianfu. ”

Qi Lingxian didn't speak, only let out a 'hmm' from his nose.

Qi Jinzhi turned his head and asked the housekeeper, "How is Qu Da now?" ”

The housekeeper bowed down and replied: "Qu Da has been taken into custody by Shuntian Mansion, and several tearooms under his name have also been seized, and now Yin Zheng of Shuntian Mansion has ordered people to search several teahouses and the mansion that Qu Da has set up outside. ”

Qi Ling suddenly asked, "Can Shuntian Mansion have a formal trial of this matter?" "Has Qu Da ever been in class? Have you been punished?

The housekeeper understood what his master meant, and hurriedly shook his head: "Not yet." Shuntian Mansion Yin just ordered someone to collect evidence, and Qu Da was also well imprisoned in the prison. Yesterday, Qu's mother-in-law went to see him and came back to report that he was all right. ”

Qi Ling hooked the corners of his lips first, "Shuntianfu Yin is really a smart person. "Knowing that there is something hidden behind this matter, I didn't handle the case according to the regular procedures, but just pressed and dragged it.

Qi Jinzhi frowned, "Father, Shuntian Mansion Yin can delay, but we can't delay." A few days ago, we were not in Beijing, and the commander behind the cheap maid would not make trouble, but now ......, "The Qi family is back, and with the 'main master', it would be strange if the other party didn't exert his strength."

Not to mention that Qi Jinzhi is still an official of Dali Temple, when the time comes, find a royal history to participate in a book, drag Qi Jinzhi and Shuntianfu Yin into the water together, and accuse them of a 'official protection', suspecting that the entire judicial institution is derelict in duty and violating the law, Dali Temple and Shuntianfu will try the case without the slightest mercy in order to prove their innocence.

And the focus of the incident has also successfully shifted from Qu Jincai to the Qi family.

Qi Lingxian pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Ming'er let everyone report to Qu." ”

Qi Jinzhi hesitated a little, "Let's make a big deal ourselves?" ”

"Yes, the Qi family is innocent and not afraid of people checking, so why should we cower?"

Qi Ling opened his eyes first, and ordered the housekeeper in a deep voice, "Go and call Qu Honestly, I have something to tell him." ”

The butler said yes and withdrew.

There were only two fathers and sons in the study, and neither of them spoke, but for a long time, Qi Jinzhi sighed happily: "Fortunately, we have prepared in advance, otherwise this time it will be really difficult." ”

Qi Ling glanced at his son first, and said angrily, "It's good that you know." Gu is a rare good daughter-in-law, sensible, understands the rules, and the most important thing is that she has a clear mind and can help you...... Such a good wife, you should cherish it! ”

A dignified husband, when he is broad-minded, but now he is angry with a woman, what a shame!

Qi Jinzhi was trained by his father to lower his head, hide the emotions in his eyes, and only heard his muffled voice: "My son knows that he is wrong, when the Gu family comes back from the Gu family, my son will definitely accompany her." ”

Qi Lingxian was satisfied and continued to discuss countermeasures with his son.

The father and son in the study didn't know that Gu Jialuo, who they were discussing, was encountering a sudden 'sexual encounter' at this time.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, the horse under was frightened, and it actually crashed into the nobleman's carriage, it's really damn ......"

A handsome young man like a jade lang, desperately pulling a fluttering horse, his white jade-like face was blushing, and he apologized to the driver who drove the car.

Gu Jialuo lifted the curtain of the car and glanced at it casually.

But I don't know if it was a coincidence or a deliberate idea, when she looked over, the young man also turned his gaze to this side, colliding with Gu Jialuo's gaze...... (To be continued......)
