Chapter 264: Show Me the Ledger
This is the first time Gu Gangqian has called Jiang Ancestral Hall's name, and in the past, he used to call Jiang Lord politely, and sometimes he would call himself "this hall", just like talking to ordinary subordinates.
But this time it was different, Gu Gangqian lowered his voice, softened his tone, and shouted "Jiang Ancestral Hall", it was like a call between friends. His question sounded like simple confusion, more like being bewitched by Jiang Soft's words, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
Friend?
Jiang Ci naturally didn't believe this, his expression didn't seem to have changed, and he still smiled gently: "This...... It depends on how each person feels differently. Jiang Ruanyan is a very special person, I think everyone will have different feelings when they come into contact with her. ”
This is polite, but also serious.
That's not what Gu Gangqian wanted to hear.
He had no doubt that if he continued to ask like this, Jiang Ci would be able to go around the bend with him until the end.
So Gu Gangqian thought about it, and simply said directly: "Jiang Ci, do you like her too?" ”
"Like?" Jiang Ci was stunned for a moment, and then as if he had heard some joke, his smile became much more real: "Your Highness, you may have misunderstood." I like her very much, but not the kind of liking you understand. A girl like this who is full of energy and looks forward to everything, I think anyone who comes into contact with it will like it. ”
Gu Gangqian didn't believe it.
He carefully looked at Jiang Ci's expression, trying to find a little loophole in it.
Alas, nothing.
Jiang Ci's expression looked ...... Frank and swaying.
"Your Highness," Jiang Ci knew what he wanted to ask, so his response was also very simple: "I am absolutely, I will not have that kind of mind about Miss Jiang." ”
That's Jiang Ruanyan, that's the person he swore to protect with his life, how could he be contaminated?
Gu Gangqian naturally didn't understand why he said this, so he just narrowed his eyes slightly, and only laughed after a while, and said lightly: "You are the first person to say this to me." All I have heard in the past is falsehood. ”
For example, Gu Shenyuan.
Although Gu Gangqian didn't know why Gu Shenyuan suddenly changed his mind, Gu Shenyuan's heart for Jiang Softyan in the past, Gu Gangqian, as a brother, saw it with his own eyes. No matter how Gu Shenyuan denied it, he made it clear.
"That shows that Miss Jiang is really likable." Jiang Ci laughed again, with a bit of pride in his demeanor, as if Gu Gangqian was praising his daughter.
The more he talked about Jiang Ruanyan, Gu Gangqian almost forgot what he wanted to do, he immediately came back to his senses and changed the topic back: "I said I wanted her to be happy, why did I come here again?" ”
Gu Gangqian was too entangled in his own affairs, so he didn't notice Jiang Ci's expression at all.
Naturally, some clues were missed.
Jiang Ruanyan sneezed several times in the Wanshi House, which made her feel inexplicable, rubbed the tip of her nose and scolded: "Which bastard is talking bad about me behind my back?" A likable person like me will really be remembered. ”
If Gu Shenyuan scolded people in the back, it would be okay.
"You yourself and Gu Gangqian are so close, you don't know how many people will scold you later?" Wen Ming complained while eating melon seeds.
As for Gu Gangqian's matter, almost all the people in Wanshiwu were against it, but it was useless. Jiang Ruanyan made up his mind, and it was not something they could control at all. Therefore, the complaints about Jiang Ruanyan and Gu Gangqian have become complaints on weekdays, of course, the most powerful person is Wen Ming.
Jiang Ruanyan was also curious about this for a long time, obviously Wen Ming had scolded Gu Shenyuan before, but since the last time he met Gu Shenyuan, he seemed to have changed his words, and it was no longer obvious.
"Alright, you two don't quarrel." Xi Ze had no choice but to come out to preside over the overall situation, and asked Jiang Ruanyan: "Do you really want to enter the palace?" ”
If you want to talk about this thing, you have to start with a stick of incense.
Before a stick of incense, Jiang Ruanyan was about to try to make pot-wrapped meat in the Wanshi House, but suddenly someone ran in and said that someone was coming from the palace and wanted to see Jiang Ruanyan. Jiang Ruanyan's first reaction was that the things she gave to the emperor made the emperor think about it, and she was thinking about how to reply, when she saw a familiar figure.
The little palace maid next to Concubine Qi.
She had come out to run errands and talk a few times before, so Jiang Ruanyan also had an impression of this person, and when she saw that it was her, she smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, and asked, "Why is Sister Chun Chan here, is there anything wrong?" Come in and say. ”
What Chun Chan wants to say can't be known to outsiders, so he nodded, and followed Jiang Ruanyan into the room before whispering: "Miss Jiang, Concubine Qi wants you to enter the palace to meet." ”
"You should also know that Concubine Cheng's pregnancy is gone, and the emperor is furious. But there was nothing to do, no evidence of Concubine Cheng's miscarriage was found, and the pressure from Concubine Cheng's mother's family, so it was released now. Take-off Niangniang wants to talk to you to the palace to see if there is any other way. "Chun Chan doesn't treat Jiang Ruanyan as an outsider now.
It's not an accident to say, but Jiang Ruanyan still has a little headache, she went to help Concubine Qi Niangniang in order to hug her thighs, but she didn't expect to be regarded as a military advisor now, she had no choice, so she could only promise to come down and say, "Okay, let me enter the palace now?" ”
If he enters the palace now, Jiang Ruanyan will not be able to do anything except talk to Concubine Qi to relieve his boredom. In such a short period of time, she couldn't think of anything at all.
Chun Chan also knew, so he smiled and said, "No, Concubine Qi said, let me give you this hand." When Miss Jiang wants to enter the palace, just enter the palace with the cards in your hand, and no one will stop you. But don't take too long, don't let the mother worry. ”
Well, that's throwing this on her.
Isn't the implication just to wait for her to come up with a solution, and then go into the palace to tell Concubine Qi?
Jiang softly sighed, very helpless.
Helpless is helpless, but Jiang Ruanyan can't refuse, he can only thank Dade for this hand, and thank Chun Cicada again, and ask someone to stay for tea before sending it away.
As soon as I turned my head again, the people in the house of everything were watching from behind.
Then, there was such a meeting.
Fiddling with the cards in his hand, Jiang Softyan's tone was helpless: "People have already sent me things, how can I refuse?" That's the lady in the palace, but it's not Xia Zhiran, I can just find an excuse to refuse. Do you believe that if I don't go for three days, someone in the palace will have to come out to urge me? ”
Everyone believes this.
"But ......" Jun Lang's appearance looked a little embarrassed, he looked at Jiang Soft's words, and sighed: "Boss, you have already walked so close to Gu Gangqian, if Gu Gangqian knows that you entered the palace to see Concubine Qi, Jun Mou thinks...... Your situation will be very dangerous. ”
"Ah, I know." Jiang Ruanyan's tone seemed to be saying that the weather was really good today, she nodded and said in agreement: "I also don't think we can go blatantly, we have to go quietly." ”
Is it the silence of the crowd?
Recently, Jiang Ruanyan's brain has become more and more out-of-this, and his behavior has become more and more incomprehensible, Wen Ming frowned and said, "Jiang Ruanyan, what are you thinking in your mind now?" Concubine Qi and Gu Gangqian represent two factions, even if you really want to choose Gu Gangqian, then you shouldn't meet Concubine Qi again. ”
Since returning from the Jiang family, Jiang Ruanyan's brain has been different from ordinary people, and now it is even more different.
Jun Lang and the others glanced at each other, and after making sure that each other's expressions were confused, Wen Ming continued to ask Jiang Ruanyan: "If you continue like this, soon Wanshiwu will be crazy to make enemies, and if these two people find out each other's existence again, neither of them will be able to protect our Wanshiwu." ”
"The House of Everything?" Jiang Ruanyan seemed to have heard something she cared about, her eyes lit up, and she smiled at Wen Ming and asked, "Wen Ming, you say, what do we mean by Wanshiwu?" Is it this place, or are these people in front of me? ”
Shinto.
This is the first thought that now comes to the minds of all people.
Wen Ming frowned, and followed her words: "It should be these people, didn't you say it yourself, even if the house burns down and is gone, as long as we are still there, will the house still be there?" ”
Jiang Ruanyan nodded, and said with a smile for a while: "What you said makes sense, so, if we are not in the Wanshiwu, then it is useless whether I am holding Gu Gangqian's thigh or holding Concubine Qi's thigh." ”
Everyone who said this was stunned, and their hearts sank, and they always felt that what Jiang Ruanyan said was becoming more and more dangerous.
"Okay, let's go, what to do." Jiang Ruanyan waved her hand, as if she didn't bother to continue to say anything to them, she stretched out her hand and pointed at Wen Ming: "You have to stay with me for a while, I have something to ask you." ”
Several people glanced at each other and left helplessly.
Bingyue walked last, and when she was about to go out, she didn't look back and said, "I'm from your side." ”
Jiang Ruanyan's body stiffened, and he didn't give any response, as if he hadn't heard.
Sitting down next to her with a big grin, Wen Ming raised her eyebrows and asked, "What are you asking me to stay for?" What's the matter? ”
"You have the ledger of our house of everything, right? Nishizawa said before that he handed it over to you, and you give me the account book in a while, and I'll take a look. Jiang Ruanyan stretched his waist and made a look of planning to work seriously: "I have to see if you have any corruption, fraud, embezzlement or something." You see, it's coming to the end of the year, and it's time to count the year-end bonus. ”
It's already early winter at this time, and according to usual, Jiang Ruanyan always delays the year-end bonus to the end, and when it can't be delayed any longer, he is forced to do it by the people of Wanshiwu.
Wen Ming was a little surprised to be so active this year.
Remember the royal pet: the permanent address of His Highness in those years
