Chapter 514: Sympathy

Before he stepped into the Qiushui Courtyard where Concubine Gu lived, he heard the sound of quarrels coming from the courtyard. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Obviously, Concubine Gu and the third wife were arguing in the courtyard.

When I entered the courtyard, I saw a group of maids standing far away, with pointed ears and bright eyes.

The maids in Qiushui Courtyard are all concubines of Concubine Gu, the third wife came to the door with fault, the maid and the mother-in-law were a little indignant, the master was bullied and came to the door, and the maid's face was also gloomy, even if it was obviously the third wife.

The third wife was not angry, and I saw her trembling from a distance.

The fourth lady stood aside, looked at Concubine Gu, and said with a calm expression, "Concubine Gu, the third wife and I have never provoked you, for so many years, we have been helping you and Huan'er, but you are targeting me and my third sister-in-law everywhere these days, where can we not stand you?!" ”

used to have the upper hand in their words, and it was okay to poke their wounds, but now they actually took the third wife's maiden family under the knife, which is really too much.

Concubine Gu glanced at her, her eyes were cold.

The third and fourth ladies really had nothing to provoke her, but the old princess whom they respected offended her to death.

She didn't have anything to do with the old princess, so she could only use them.

Besides, the old princess raised secret guards and assassinated the Chongzu Marquis Mansion, who was she ultimately for, isn't it still the third and fourth masters?!

To say they didn't know, she didn't believe it.

Concubine Gu looked at the third wife and said with a smile, "The third wife was in a hurry, and she came to me angrily to ask for her guilt, and as soon as she came, she knocked over the peony flowers I raised, it should be that I asked where I offended the third wife, and the third wife counted the Yang family's imprisonment on my head, so I can't help but think too highly of me, do you think I have that ability?" ”

The third lady laughed angrily.

She tried to take a deep breath before she suppressed the urge to tear Concubine Gu's face apart.

The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, a few of them are two-sleeved breeze, and nine and a half out of ten are not clean in their hands!

Like Prince Xuan's Mansion, that is disdainful of greed for money, the palace is rich and rivals the country, and the prince is upright, he is only in charge of military power, and he generally doesn't care who the emperor wants to promote, unless it is a household book.

In charge of the household department, it is only the household department that manages the treasury, which is related to military salaries, otherwise the prince will not manage so much.

The emperor is also very clear about the greed for money as an official, sometimes he can only turn a blind eye, and if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and there will be no fugitives when he observes.

Moreover, the protection of officials and officials is not only for the people, but also for the emperor.

The Yang family is the maiden family of the third wife, even if it is backed by Prince Xuan's mansion, even if the Yang family is not very good, but under the wings of Prince Xuan's mansion, few people dare to move, and there are still many people who want to rely on the third master through the Yang family.

The third wife knows very well that it is true that the Yang family is greedy for ink and accepts bribes, and since the Marquis Chongzu dares to impeach, and it is a blatant impeachment, there must be evidence in his hand, and it is ironclad evidence.

Now the emperor has imprisoned the Yang family and ordered a thorough investigation.

The Yang family is finished.

The third wife didn't know that Chongzu Hou would open up the net, but if there was a little way out, Concubine Gu would not show her tone at all, and their brother and sister just wanted to put her and the Yang family to death.

The third wife was mad, so she didn't care about it.

When she came to find Concubine Gu, Concubine Gu was pruning the flower branches with a leisurely face, and the third wife tried harder, but she couldn't hold back her anger and kicked over a pot of peony flowers.

The third wife's chest rose and fell angrily, and the fourth wife said with a cold face, "We are all open people, why bother to say those hypocritical words, if the Chongzu Marquis wanted to target the Yang family before, he didn't have to wait until today." ”

The implication is that the Marquis of Chongzu will impeach the Yang family because of Concubine Gu.

The corners of Concubine Gu's mouth hooked up a sneer, Chongzu Hou impeached the Yang family, not because of her, but because of the old princess.

This basin was slammed into her head, and she didn't recognize it.

"If the Yang family sits upright, others can't be impeached even if they want to, my eldest brother eats the king's fortune and worries about the king, and the third wife comes to blame me, is this my eldest brother bending the law for personal gain?" Concubine Gu said coldly.

The third lady couldn't help it at all, she grinded her teeth and said, "Bending the law for personal gain? Chongzu Hou did less to bend the law for personal gain?! ”

Concubine Gu's face changed, and she said coldly, "It's not your third wife who bends the law for personal gain!" My eldest brother impeached the Yang family, that is conclusive evidence, if you have my eldest brother's criminal evidence, just go to impeach, what are you yelling at in front of me? ”

The third wife's fists clenched angrily.

Obviously, neither she nor the Yang family have evidence.

There are some things that are useless to know by heart, and without conclusive evidence, you just anger yourself to death, and you don't have anything to do with others.

Shen Yue stood aside and listened quietly.

To be honest, when she heard Concubine Gu say this, she sympathized with the third wife in her heart.

It is very easy for Chongzu Hou to collect evidence of the Yang family's crimes, and it is really difficult for the Yang family to take Chongzu Hou.

After all, the people who interacted with the Marquis of Chongzu were all important ministers of the imperial court, and they were not on the same level as the Yang family.

Accepting bribes is not only unlucky for the Marquis of Chongzu, but also unlucky for the gift-giver.

Officials protect each other, who dares to poke this thing out?

Concubine Gu Fang didn't dare to say this until the third wife was right, to put it bluntly, she was angry that the third wife's mother's family was incompetent.

Shen Yue wondered if she should help the third wife.

Dog eats dog, two dogs are evenly matched to have a look, one was bitten to death in three or two bites, how do you look at the remaining one, do you look at people?

The fourth wife and the third wife have the same hatred, and seeing that Concubine Gu is aggressive, she can't help but say, "Don't do things, the Yang family can't help the Chongzu Marquis Mansion, but there is a huge Kyoto, there is always someone who can clean up the Chongzu Marquis Mansion!" ”

Concubine Gu smiled, her smile was very proud, very piercing, "At least it's not the Yang family, and it's not your Song family." ”

This is the contempt for you.

In a word, the fourth wife's anger was also raised.

At this time, a girl came running outside, and she ran to the fourth lady in a hurry, and said, "Oh no, something happened to the Song family." ”

The fourth wife's face instantly stiffened, and she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

After asking, the fourth wife regretted it.

The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, especially the affairs of the mother's family, and it should not be known to the people of the palace.

But the words came out, and the maid didn't think much about it, and when the master asked, she said, "If you say it again, you can't hide it."

"The young master is gambling with people in the gambling house, and he owes 300,000 taels of gambling debts, and the gambling house went to the Song family to ask for debts."

300,000 taels ......

Hearing these four words, the fourth wife shook her body.

If it weren't for the third wife's quick hand to help her, I was afraid that she would fall.

The fourth lady's face was as pale as paper.

All the properties of the Song family have been sold, and it is not enough to pay 300,000 taels.

The Song family is finished.

The third lady stared at Concubine Gu with gloomy eyes, her eyes were red and bloodshot, and her silver teeth were almost crushed, "It's you again!" ”
