Chapter 138 Five Women's Deliberations

"Okay, let's think about it now, what does the Yan family and the Tian family mean by doing this?" Dong Xiaoyou said softly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Several girls were silent, and after a while, Biluo said, "Didn't Madame say yesterday that the scholars should express something?" As a result, I didn't expect to send so many things today, and I also handed over all the account books to us. In this way, they were trying to show favor to the lady in order to clear up the relationship between the Assassins and them. ”

Dong Xiaoyou smiled slightly: Biluo is really an honest person, and she thinks about it too beautifully, she doesn't think that these people from the Shi clan will simply show goodwill: "What you said makes sense, it's just that yesterday I thought that the people of the Shi clan didn't say anything about our assassination, but I didn't expect them to act today, how do you look at it, this thing is too coincidental, right?" Dong Xiaoyou pursed his lips slightly, I'm afraid this house is not clean.

Ah Chu frowned and said, "The slave maid thinks that Sister Biluo's words are very reasonable. Madam, although it is said that it is a good thing to keep a few more eyes, but those books and papers cannot be faked. If it was the eyeliner that the other party had planted in our house revealed to them what Mrs. said yesterday, but those documents could not be prepared overnight. The slave maid thought that so many documents, I am afraid that the scholars had begun to prepare them after we were attacked, in order to present them to the lady today to show their loyalty. ”

Dong Xiao smiled and looked at the people in the hall noncommittally.

Bai Ling pondered for a long time, and finally slowly opened his mouth: "Madam, the Yan family and the Tian family are doing this, although it is clear that they are showing favor to the prince and Madame, but the intention behind them is only to threaten Madame." ”

Biluo, Ah Chu, and Qili suddenly looked at Bai Ling and changed their faces.

Dong Xiaoyou nodded slightly: "Well, you continue." "Bai Ling has always been the smartest of the maids, and she can often see different opinions from others.

"Madam, the slave maid just took a cursory look at one of the books," Bai Ling raised his head, "The previous record is indeed very detailed and clear, and it is definitely not a fake. However, most of the latter are extremely sketchy accounts. ”

Dong Xiaoyou heard this, and unconsciously looked at the book in the box.

The slave looked through a few more books, and found that almost all the books were like this, and the difference between the way they were recorded in the front and back was too great. The lady could find someone who could read the books to check it, and the slave thought that it was probably because ......"

"Because they haven't finished the papers, I'm already suspicious of them?" Dong Xiaoyou took over the conversation, she looked at Bailing calmly, with deep approval in her eyes.

"The slave and the maid also think so." Bai Ling smiled shallowly.

Listening to Bai Ling's words, Ah Chu slapped his palms fiercely: "In that case, could it be that there are still spies in our house who have been bribed by the scholars?" Her face became ugly, she has always been the maid who is the most in charge of the affairs of the house, if there are really a large number of subordinates who have been bought by people outside the house, it is her responsibility for negligence.

Ah Chu gritted her teeth and scolded the few bribed subordinates in her heart, and then she returned to her usual docile and considerate appearance, and knelt down to Dong Xiaoyou: "The slave and maid are not properly employed, it is the slave and maid's fault, and I ask the lady to punish me." She was sincerely confessing, because it was a fact that she could not refute. Moreover, people outside the mansion can even inquire about a sentence or two said by the lady in the general's mansion, so what is the meaning of this high mansion? There are so many guards up and down the house, servants who practice martial arts, maids, and ladies, all of whom are in vain.

Dong Xiaoyou gently wanted to help Ah Chu up: "You can't be blamed only for this matter, get up." "After all, it has been less than half a year since Liu Yi moved from the Central Plains to Youzhou, and most of the subordinates in the General's Mansion were bought locally in Youzhou, so naturally there was a lot of eyeliner mixed in it, which is really no wonder Ah Chu.

But Ah Chu is a person who attaches great importance to responsibility, she lowered her head and refused to get up: "Madam, the slave's fault is wrong, the slave knows that the lady is good to the slave and the maid, but if there is a mistake, it must be punished." ”

Dong Xiaoyou sighed: "Ah Chu, listen well, it's not that your wrong lady doesn't plan to investigate, but now is the time to employ people." Even if you are responsible for this matter, the most important thing at the moment is not to punish you for your mistakes, but to concentrate on dealing with those who are staring at us. If you are injured at this time, how many of her own people do Mrs. Ben have to use? And how many clever and capable people can be called? ”

Ah Chu is a hard-hearted person, as long as it is for the good of the prince, others will regard her flattery and wooing her as the wind in their ears. But Dong Xiaoyou's words moved her very much: Mrs. regarded her as her own in the end, and she also took her weight very seriously.

Dong Xiaoyou smiled lightly, and then helped Ah Chu up from the ground. Biluo looked at this scene with a smile: her girl is no longer the lonely person she was when she was a concubine in the Wang family, and now by her side, even if she doesn't have herself, there are reliable and capable people like Ah Chu, Bailing, and Qili.

After Ah Chu was helped up, Dong Xiaoyou turned his head to look at Bai Ling again: "Do you have any other opinions?" ”

Bai Ling thought for a while, lowered his eyelids and said, "The slave maid thinks that the other party is in such a hurry to produce the book, I'm afraid it's not just because the lady suspects them. ”

Qili suddenly said in a loud voice: "Since Bai Ling said that the account books are obviously inconsistent, such mistakes and omissions, aren't the Tian family and the Yan family afraid of being seen by their wife?" ”

Dong Xiaoyou sighed softly in her heart: Sure enough, people who don't open their mouths are often more able to hit the nail on the head. "You're right, so, is the other party afraid of our suspicion or not?"

"Not afraid, but ...... I'm afraid. Qili said calmly, her tone was always cold for thousands of years, as if everyone had an enmity with her, no wonder in the mansion except for Ah Chu, her best friend was a lion horse she raised. It's a pity that such a delicate and beautiful beauty is so unpleasant, Dong Xiaoyou was a little distracted.

Qili didn't know that Madame was observing and analyzing her at this time, otherwise her face would have turned even colder, and she continued: "The other party originally planned to send these weapons over, but I'm afraid they didn't plan to send them here today. There was something that caused them to have to send their weapons in advance. ”

"Could it be that Mrs. Ben's words yesterday made them feel pressured?" Dong Xiaoyou asked jokingly.

Qili shook her head: "Slave intuition, no. Or rather, not the direct cause. She kept her mouth shut and didn't say another word, indicating that she had finished what she had to say.

Dong Xiaoyou recognized Qili's intuition: "What Qili said is indeed very reasonable, and the other party is not worried about whether I will doubt them." But they had planned to send weapons in advance, but they were afraid that it would be ......" Speaking of this, she gradually sank her face, and the atmosphere in the hall became extremely serious.

Biluo's eyes rolled, and she was suddenly shocked, she looked around vigilantly, and now she was not worried that someone would come to eavesdrop, because this time Madame drove all the irrelevant subordinates to the outside of the courtyard of the hall, and there would be no more eyeliner to hear, unless the other party had a tailwind. And Biluo, Ah Chu and Qili are all women with strong martial arts, as long as the three of them get together, no one dares to sneak into the hall to eavesdrop.

"Ma'am," Bi Luo lowered her voice, "could it be that there is something important that affects all their plans?" ”

Biluo finally guessed the topic, Dong Xiaoyou frowned and tightened his eyebrows, what major things could affect such a prominent and domineering big family as the Tian family and the Yan family to act in advance?

Thinking about it, there is only one thing: the prince set up an ambush in Xigaima, and shot and killed King Xianbei and Lian in a battle! I'm afraid that no one would have thought that such a menacing Xianbei army would actually lose its boss. The prince successfully shot and killed Helian, so that the Xianbei clan will be torn apart, and they will no longer be able to pose a threat to Youzhou for decades, which is the biggest thing.

The Tian family and the Yan family really have an inseparable connection with the Xianbei people, Dong Xiaoyou has already guessed in his heart: Although the Tian family and the Yan family are wealthy families in Youzhou, after the prince came, he did not give them the right to participate in military and political affairs, perhaps the prince had already realized their disobedience. Although Tian Kai and Yan Gang have official positions, they are still in the rear during such a major war, and they are not with the army, which shows that the prince is indeed deliberately squeezing out the Tian family and the Yan family.

And the Tian family and the Yan family were afraid that they didn't expect that He Lian would be shot by the prince, they originally probably thought that the prince might be able to repel the Xianbei people, but the Xianbei people have always come and gone quickly, and it is impossible for the prince to beat the Xianbei people to a great injury. At that time, when the prince returns, they will hand over so many weapons to the prince, and they will definitely be appreciated by the prince. And in order to deal with the Xianbei people all the year round in the future, I am afraid that he will rely more on the weapons of the two of them.

In this way, the prince had to reuse the Tian family and the Yan family as officials. For the sake of their own interests and power, the Yan family and the Tian family plan to maneuver between the prince and the Xianbei people, which can not only get the benefits of both sides, but also make both sides inseparable from them. In this way, whether Xuansu County continues to be ruled by the Han Dynasty or is attacked by the Xianbei people, there is no harm to the two of them, and it may be able to grab greater benefits for them.

Dong Xiaoyou's eyes became fierce: This is the real wall-riding faction, and it is also the wall-riding faction with constant small movements. Originally, before this, they were probably more inclined to the Xianbei people, and the matter of the assassins was related to the two of them nine times out of ten. When He Lian died, they had to stand on the side of the prince again, so they sent weapons in advance.

The master and servant were silent, and there was a dead silence in the hall. After a long time, several people combined, Ah Chu and Qili's conjecture was also eight or nine points right with Dong Xiao's conjecture, and although Biluo's brain was not flexible enough, she also guessed most of them correctly.

Only Bai Ling's face was even more ugly: "Madam, there is one more thing, they sent a document full of errors and omissions, and there is a layer of deep meaning. Her voice trembled slightly, indicating that she was very nervous about this matter in her heart.

Dong Xiaoyou raised his eyebrows: "Say it, Bailing, say whatever you want." A few of us women with long hair and short knowledge got together to see if we could see through what these scholars were doing. ”
