(713) Intimacy
- Li Gai shook his head slightly and said: "I am a martial arts practitioner, and I have a more comprehensive understanding of acupuncture points, and I can also know a little bit about the diagnosis of pulse, but I have not studied pharmacology like a real doctor. However, listening to what you just said, the imperial doctor's diagnosis is also decent, and His Majesty does need to recuperate now. ”
Hearing that Li Gai agreed with the imperial doctor's diagnosis, the suspicion in the eyes of the second prince Wang Hong not only did not subside, but increased, turning into a look close to questioning, and his tone remained calm and said: "Is the accurate result so?" You said the word 'decent', but I can't help but be suspicious. ”
In Li Gai's heart, the diagnosis of Wang Chi's injury did have a result that was different from the diagnosis of the imperial doctor, but he was not completely sure of the conclusion he had reached at this time, so it was inconvenient for him to immediately explain his point of view in front of Wang Hong.
He thought of the two guards who had probably suffered the same internal injuries as Wang Chi, and now that they were being treated in the Commander's Mansion, he had to go back and determine his suspicion of Wang Chi's injuries from the diagnosis of the two of them. He couldn't try Wang Chi's body, which was one of the reasons why he sent those two palace guards to the Commander's Mansion.
"His Majesty did suffer some internal injuries, and for those who practice martial arts, such things will inevitably happen occasionally." After a little consideration, Li Gai finally spoke, but only picked a few shallow words, temporarily reassuring Wang Hong, "Quiet recuperation is naturally the best way to recover, and this imperial doctor is not wrong." In addition, there were two guards who were injured almost at the same time as His Majesty. I need to go back and find out their injuries before I can be sure of something, and if Your Highness believes me, you will wait for me for another day. ”
Wang Hong suddenly sighed, and said in a slightly sandy voice: "Of course I believe in Uncle Li."
Knowing that Wang Chi's physical condition was quite stable at this time, and with a few words, the heart of the second prince Wang Hong was also stabilized, and Li Gai announced his resignation.
Wang Hong wanted to send Li Gai for a while, but he was politely dissuaded. Seeing Li Gai walk away quickly, in the corridor of the royal garden where the palace lights gradually turned on, Wang Hong's face gradually became cold. There was a deep tiredness in the bottom of his eyes.
After sitting at the water-stained stone table under the hexagonal pavilion for a long time, he took a deep breath, got up slowly, and slowly walked to the warm pavilion to look at his father again, and then slowly came out, dragging heavy steps towards Huayang Palace.
After Wang Hong slowly left from the east gate of the royal garden where the warm pavilion was located, not long after, two palace maids came in from the north gate of the garden, each carrying a lantern with a glass lampshade in their hands, and then Concubine De's phoenix robe and deerskin thick-soled boots stepped in.
When he was still a dozen steps away from the door of the warm pavilion. Concubine De waved her hand and left all the palace people who were serving around her in the corridor. She walked lightly into the warm pavilion alone.
After Wang Chi returned to the palace, he did not rest in the dormitory. Instead, he rested in the warm pavilion of the South Compound, which was also a choice that followed the instructions of the imperial doctor.
The South Compound is not large, but it is very quiet, because the guards here are very strict. If His Majesty needs a quiet environment, dozens of shadow guards in the South Compound can clean up the noise sources within a hundred steps outside the courtyard at any time.
It is also for this reason that even if there are palace people passing by this area, they have to deliberately bypass it. Because the palace people didn't know when His Majesty was inside, when he needed to be quiet, and the tribe sent those bat-like men in black to clean up the four fields. If you don't pay attention, you are like a rabbit and you are picked up by an eagle and thrown far away.
After the news of Wang Chi's return to the palace spread, several people came to visit, but none of them could cross the outer wall of the South Compound. was invited away by a few men in black.
More than ten years ago, when Wang Chi was still guarding the border in northern Xinjiang, he had a wife, married several concubines, and had a total of two daughters and three sons. The eldest son died at an early age, and the third son stayed away from home all the year round. The youngest daughter has been sitting outside the big family of the palace, and she is still worrying about how to recruit her. Now in the palace, Wang Chi's closest people are only his eldest daughter Wang Qing, his second son Wang Hong, and then his favorite concubine Xiao Wanting.
For these three people, of course, the shadow guards of the South Compound can't be stopped.
The second prince, Wang Hong, came back with the emperor. And not long after the emperor rested in the warm pavilion, the princess Wang Qing arrived. But because she saw her father's uncomfortable appearance due to injury, she couldn't stop crying, Wang Hong was worried that she was too sad and seriously injured, so she quickly made the decision and persuaded her to go back to her dormitory with two grandmothers.
As for why Concubine De is late, it can be understood that husband and wife always need to have a solitary environment before they can talk about themselves.
What's more, the second prince didn't stay in the warm pavilion for long, and after careful calculation, Concubine De was only half an hour late.
There are only three palace people serving in the warm pavilion, but at this time, the emperor Wang Chi, who is sleeping on the imperial couch, does not need to serve anything, as long as the environment continues to be quiet.
The three palace people in the warm pavilion saluted Concubine De silently, and after getting up, they were pointed out by her outside the pavilion with a look.
There are only two people in the room, one bedroom and one standing, Concubine Xiao Wanting stood three steps away from the couch, quietly looking at the emperor's husband who was sleeping evenly with a snort, so after a while, she took the three steps closer, squatted down close to the edge of the couch, and gently held the hand that her husband put outside the brocade quilt.
Wang Chi, who was still aching in his chest and abdomen, actually slept very lightly, and felt his hand being held by something warm and wet—anything that came into contact with him at this time would make him feel a little uncomfortable—so he closed his eyes and struggled with only a subconscious.
His sudden subtle movement really startled Xiao Wanting.
After a while, after confirming that her husband's shaking of his hand was just an unconscious move, Xiao Wanting breathed a sigh of relief, but her mood was still a little disturbed. Putting her husband's hand back into the brocade quilt and tucking the corners of the quilt on both sides of his shoulder, Xiao Wanting stood up from the couch, with a hint of complexity in her eyes.
"Did you just dream?"
"Who did you think was holding your hand in your dream?"
"Or should I say, when I hold your hand, is it me who you see in your dreams?"
Xiao Wanting asked three questions in her heart at one time, and these three questions did not come out of her mouth, some of them seemed to be asking her husband Wang Chi, and some of them seemed to be questioning a certain role she played in the Wang family.
……
"Where's the newcomer?"
As soon as Yan Yu got into the car, she got the four words asked by the elder.
Yan Yu also knew that if he returned "empty-handed", he would definitely have to be interrogated by the elders of the family, and he was also having filial piety, and he didn't know how to explain to this elder with a high reputation in the family. Thinking a lot, he finally picked only the simplest but clear two words in response: "Lost."
"Lost?" The elder repeated the two words Yan Yu said, and suddenly smiled. Didn't speak again.
He didn't ask, but Yan Yu realized a problem and questioned, "Does Uncle Clan already know?"
"Knowing is only knowing the skin." The elder sighed lightly, "I haven't seen you come back, my uncle is a little worried, so he asked the guy to go to the city to take a look, and guess that you are doing the affairs of Dongfeng Tower." Considering you don't like being followed too closely, you didn't let the guy take a closer look. ”
When Yan Yu heard this, she suddenly remembered something and asked, "The person who kicked the door." Isn't it ......"
"What door?" The elder was also surprised when he heard this. "Is anyone really bothering you?"
"Nope." Yan Yu hesitated. I don't know if his uncle, who has a high reputation in the clan, already knows about the charter.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he thought of this stubble, he heard the old man say with a cold face: "Do you want to continue to hide it?" Three thousand taels is not a small amount, do you really use a silver ticket as a paper game?"
"Uncle Clan really ...... Thoughtful. Yan Yu had a trace of embarrassment on her face, spending such a large amount of money. In fact, it was also his first time.
"It's not that Uncle deliberately wants to observe this, but everyone can see it. actually took out the ledger on the street, who bewitched you. The elder looked at Yan Yu and shook his head slightly, and then said, "Is there a goblin in Dongfeng Tower, Ah Yu, take out the account book and show me."
Yan Yu knew what Uncle Clan was worried about, the kind of account book he took out to sign in Dongfeng Building was an alternative deposit in the Yan family's accounts, and he could sign silver directly. No more than ten copies for the entire family.
His father saw that he was in charge of the business operations of the Nanzhao Zhongzhou Branch, so he gave him a copy, but he didn't let him take it to corruption. This book could be signed for a total of 100,000 taels of silver, but all of them should be used as payment.
However, he swam away 3,000 taels today, but it was all used for personal matters and games. This is a taboo against the clan rules.
He is the second son of the head of the Yan family, and with the protection of this relationship, it is not a big deal to violate the clan rules once or twice, but he is also the second young man of the Yan family whose inheritance is to be determined, and anything that damages the heir must be done carefully, or not.
Listening to Uncle Clan's words, Yan Yu was in a trance, thinking back to what he had experienced in Dongfeng Tower, he was also a little puzzled, could it be that he really bumped into some magic disease at that time?
But if that's the case, can't that woman in purple be demonized?
Thinking of this, the corners of Yan Yu's mouth unconsciously showed a hint of a smile.
The elder of the Yan clan, who was taking the account book from his hand, observed this and said casually: "No matter how beautiful the girl in the party is, she is not the choice of the wife of our descendants of the Yan clan, and it will never be the choice of the future head of the Yan clan, don't learn Yi Wen."
Yan Yu nodded when she heard this, smiled again, and did not speak.
The Yan family can directly sign and call the silver of this kind of ledger, each page is a heavy page, and after signing, half a page will be left on the ledger to facilitate future reconciliation, but also to prevent the private flow of money.
The old man flipped through the ledger and quickly stopped, because the three thousand taels of the account page was very obvious, and the bottom page was blank.
Of course, Yan Yu would not write the words "Dongfeng Lou charter expenditure" on this name, but it is also strange to leave it blank.
The elder flipped through the pages before and after the blank page, and made sure that only one page was missing, so he closed the account book and handed it back to Yan Yu, and then asked, "What is the name left on that 3,000 taels bill?" It won't be a blank ticket, right?"
"It's not much different from a white ticket." Yan Yu smiled, took back the account book and put it in his arms, and said, "Only my name was left, and I was trying to discuss this purpose with my uncle first."
The elder was surprised: "You really opened an empty ticket?" As soon as he said this, he suddenly remembered something, and said, "Ruan Luo, that kid really vouched for you?"
"Thank him for that." Yan Yu nodded and directly admitted what the elder asked. After pondering for a while, he continued: "The moment I just took out the account book, I was also a little confused, but fortunately, Ruan Luo came forward and said that he wanted to guarantee the advance, so I remembered the name of the account book." The Yan family's bills were left with Ruan Luo first, and I discussed this matter with him, and he agreed to let me think of a good name first and cash in the silver. ”
"This Ruan Luo... It's amazing ......" mentioning Ruan Luo, the elder stroked his beard and groaned. As for what happened nine years ago, based on the seniority of this elder, he naturally knows.
"It's not easy to do such a thing as building a tall building from the ground." Yan Yu smiled indifferently, "Most of Ruan Luo's family assets come from his uncle who has passed away. ”
Regarding Yan Yu's statement, the elder only half agreed, shook his head slightly, and said: "But it seems that he has taken over very smoothly, and the commercial surplus is sufficient, which is also talent."
"Uncle clan, you don't come to Nanzhao Kyoto very often, so you may be neglected to understand it. Ruan Luo created the name of 'Golden Abacus' in Kyoto six years ago, and practiced for three years in the trading house of the leader of the Beijing merchants, so he should have learned everything. Yan Yu suddenly sighed when he said this, "It's just that there has been a gap of three years, and he has been recuperating outside and has been forgotten for a while." ”
"You mentioned such a sentence, but it made Uncle suddenly remember, the reason why he left Liang Country nine years ago was also because of illness." When the elder said this, the conversation suddenly changed, "Uncle knows that you have never broken that thought, and I have seen him with my own eyes today, so it's time to stop thinking about it, right?"
"Yes, with his physical condition, I'm afraid he can only stay in Nanzhao Kyoto all the time, and pulling him to Liang Country will only make him die." Yan Yu nodded, but doubts quickly rose in his eyes, and he asked, "What does Uncle Clan mean when he suddenly said that...... Have you been thinking about this all along?"
"I don't have that much time to spare." A trace of contempt quickly flashed in the elder's eyes, "Just one Ruan Luo, if he is only a reserve talent in the calculation group, and Liang Guo is not short of such people, you should have broken up a long time ago." ”
"yes, got it." Yan Yu responded and didn't say anything more on this matter.
"The matter of three thousand taels should be carefully considered. Uncle just now it was a little difficult to understand why you were in charge, but now I suddenly understand. There is really a need to hide this matter from the big boss, such a large amount of money flows out without the goods documents to rely on, he will definitely check it, Dongfeng Lou will not hide it from him in the end, Yi Wen's reputation may be implicated. Thinking about the empty bill, the elder frowned slightly, and after a pause, he continued: "Ruan Luo, how long are you willing to guarantee?"
The "guarantee" that Yan Yu and the elders said is actually borrowing money. Three thousand taels of silver, it was Ruan Luo who cashed in from his own treasury first, and Yan Yu was able to open a short ticket-
