Chapter 54: Song Yi Digging a Trap?
Qian Ning and Song Yi sat in the carriage in silence. Song Yi held his cheeks and squinted his eyes, as if he was closing his eyes to recuperate. Qian Ning didn't bother to find a topic, so she sat in the corner in a daze.
"Brother and sister Zhao seem to have a lot of research on jade?" Song Yi said suddenly.
As soon as she heard Song Yi's question, Qian Ning couldn't help but be vigilant: "The second son has won the award, I don't like to wear jade ornaments in my life, and I don't have much contact. ”
Song Yi looked at Qian Ning playfully, and suddenly grinned: "Although Burmese jade is an ordinary thing in the south, it is really rare in my Great Song Dynasty. The second aunt's jade pendant was given by General Lan for his military exploits and was given by the emperor. Looking at the entire Great Song Dynasty, there are only a few dozen pieces of Burmese jade. According to what the eldest brother and sister of Fang Cai Zhao said, there is no opportunity to contact jade on weekdays, so dare to ask how the younger brother and sister know about Burmese jade? ”
I was in a hurry to help Renning exonerate just now, and I really didn't pay attention to the rarity and rarity of Burmese jade for a while, Qianning calmed down for a while, and Fang said: "My grandfather's family went south and north, and I saw a lot of rare treasures. ”
"Really? As far as I know, although the Zhang family has done a big business, it is basically limited to clothing and tea, and does not involve jade. I also heard that the ancestors of the Zhang family also planned to do jade business, but had an accident while mining ore, so they left a legacy to let their descendants easily avoid this kind of business. Could it be that the descendants of the Zhang family have a new view of Zuxun? ”
"You investigated me?" Qian Ning asked with a cold face, although the Zhang family is an imperial merchant and has a big business, but it is low-key in Su Ri, and things like Zu Xun can't be investigated without a little effort. And Song Yi opened his mouth to say so many things, it seems that the investigation has been taking some time.
Looking at Qianning's nervous appearance, Song Yi smiled lightly, leaned towards Qianning, and then said leisurely: "It's just a little inquiry." My younger brother and sister have such a close relationship with Yininglou, and they have the blue eyes of their mother and Wan'er, you said that if I don't inquire about your situation, how can I rest assured that you will be allowed to enter the palace in the palace? ”
"I'm not the only one who is good friends with the palace, why don't you investigate the others?" Qian Ning didn't believe Song Yi's words.
"How do you know I didn't investigate them?" Song Yi leaned against the wall of the car, as if he was going to have a long talk, "It's just that I am already familiar with their backgrounds, unlike you, who jumped into the aristocratic circle by virtue of the identity of the eldest and young grandmother of the Hou Mansion." Do you think I can check you out? ”
Qian Ning was actually very curious about why the Hou Mansion chose her in the first place. Although entering the door is a both, but the status of the Hou Mansion is not low, and Zhao Luoyan is a young talent, there should be many girls who are willing to marry in, why did they choose themselves?
"And what did you find?" Qianning also wanted to know the results of Song Yi's investigation.
"The people of the Lu family obviously don't know anything about you, just from the recent days of your two younger sisters and stepmother, that is, small families, their vision is not high, and they can't hide things. So, it's just you, there's something mysterious. ”
No wonder the palace invited the Lu family, no matter how much they invited friends, they wouldn't invite the Lu family, who couldn't be beaten with eight poles... It turned out to be Song Yi's deception, just to find out his own details.
"And what's the mystery of me?" can explore the Zhang family and the Lu family so quietly, Qianning is really worried about whether Song Yi has found out something.
Song Yi's originally smiling face turned a little cold, and his eyes flashed: "You are the young girl of Yininglou." ”
Qian Ning sighed in her heart, has this been found out? Or is it just a temptation?
"How is that possible? Not to mention that I live in the boudoir and stay at home, that is, I really became the steward of a Ninglou, but I am afraid that it will not be well managed for a long time. Qian Ning put on a look of disbelief, "Second son, you are too exalted to me." ”
"Oh..."Song Yi obviously expected that Qianning would deny it, his eyes squinted at Qianning, with a slightly raised tone, "Can you casually talk about the design concept of Yininglou jewelry, let the shopkeeper speak for you, and let Mingzhe Gongzi take over my work for you, except that you are the manager of Yininglou, can there be any other explanation?" ”
Although the inference is reasonable, but if you want to admit it without evidence, you don't even have a door.
"The second son opened his mouth and said that I was the steward of a Ninglou, but there is evidence?"
"Evidence, no ...... have been found"
Qian Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Song Yi lazily leaned as if waiting for the prey to come to the door, and continued: "However, I found something interesting, my younger brother and sister seem to be tracking Xiaohuajue......
Do you know everything about Xiaohua? Qian Ning's heart sank again.
"What is the Celestial Blossom? What is the second son talking about? "Qianning decided to play stupid to the end.
Song Yi was not in a hurry, he opened the curtain and looked at the scenery outside, before turning his head and saying, "Brother and sister can not admit it, but if I talk about this in front of Mingzhe Gongzi in a while, what do you think he will do?" ”
I didn't expect Song Yi to use Mingzhe to blackmail him. Mingzhe is the most innocent, right and wrong, if he knows that he has been poisoned by such a selfish nature, he will inevitably jump out to seek justice for himself. And when the time comes, Mingzhe's identity can't be hidden.
Qian Ning's eyes darkened, and she said in a cold tone: "It's all said, I have nothing to do with Yininglou, even if I go with you, Prince Mingzhe may not meet us." You may not have a chance to talk about it. ”
Song Yi shrugged indifferently: "Are you so sure?" Alright then, let's try it later. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage stopped. Outside, Jiang Dong lifted the curtain: "Second young master, eldest young grandmother, it's time to go to the first building." ”
Song Yi got up and got out of the carriage, looking very confident.
Qian Ning was a little apprehensive, how many things did this Song Yi master? You have to be cautious for a while.
Zhang De came out when he heard the voice, and was very surprised to see Qianning and Song Yi together, but his face did not show half a point, but he just stepped forward to greet the guests attentively: "Second son, Grandma Zhao, why did you come here together?" ”
Without waiting for Song Yi to speak, Qian Ning said with a smile: "The gift designed by Prince Mingzhe for Princess An is very good, the princess likes it very much, and the second son of Song came to thank him in person, and he was afraid that Prince Mingzhe would not appreciate his face, so he specially asked me to accompany him." I explained that the prince of Zhe might not sell my face, but the second son of Song didn't believe it, so he had to accompany him. ”
Zhang De comprehended: "That's the case, it's the right thing to do business by collecting money from the building, and it's really embarrassing to bother the second son and Grandma Zhao to go on a special trip." And ......" Zhang De stopped talking again, his face was embarrassed.
"Could it be that the son of Mingzhe is not here?" Song Yi asked with a smile.
Zhang De bowed his waist and said apologetically: "I was really told by the second son, the son of Mingzhe went out just now and hasn't come back yet." ”
Qian Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief, no matter whether Mingzhe really went out or not, Zhang De refused like this, it was not easy for Song Yi to see Mingzhe again.
Song Yi sighed: "That's really a pity. I thought I wanted to thank Ming Zhe Gongzi in person. I heard that Mingzhe Gongzi likes to be a lady, and I also specially brought two treasured albums over, but I am afraid that I can only ask the shopkeeper to hand it over. ”
After speaking, Jiang Qiu came over with two painting scrolls.
Zhang De didn't dare to answer: "The second son's kindness has been received, but Yininglou opened the door to do business, where can he still receive a gift after receiving money?" Second son, please take it back. ”
Song Yi pressed Zhang De: "The two gifts prepared by Guilou are time-consuming and laborious, and let Mingzhe Gongzi make an exception to handle it himself, no matter how I say it, I should express my gratitude." If you push it back, it won't give me face. ”
Zhang De still didn't dare to accept it. He excused himself and said a number of things.
Suddenly, a young man's voice sounded: "Could this be the picture of the lady of the former Master Lin?" ”
Isn't this voice Mingzhe, who else?
Oops, Mingzhe usually goes out at noon and comes back in the afternoon, and when he sees so many people here, he will inevitably come over to watch the excitement. can figure out all the habits of Mingzhe, Song Yi is really amazing. Although it shows that Zhe Yi is tolerant, it doesn't mean that Song Yi doesn't know him.
Qian Ning stole a glance at Song Yi, and sure enough, a satisfied expression appeared on his face, and he pulled Mingzhe to introduce the lady's picture, and he looked like he hated seeing each other, and Mingzhe also talked happily.
Qian Ning's intuition is not good, if it goes on like this, it is difficult to guarantee that Song Yi will not say anything about Xiaohua. Stabilize Song Yi first.
Qian Ning interjected: "Second son, since Prince Mingzhe is not here, let's visit another day." ”
