"Huh."

Outside the house, it was getting dark, and in the room, Jia Cong put his hands under his head, leaned back against Jin, and looked at Qingwen, who was kneeling on the side with a blushing face and wiping her lips in shame, and chuckled.

Hearing this chuckle, Qingwenqiao's face became redder, and she turned her head and glanced at Jia Cong fiercely, but there was no trace of anger in the streamer in her eyes, which was clearly charming and shy.

Qingwen looked at Jia Cong's handsome face like a fairy in the painting, with a smile on her face that was always indifferent and gentle, and in her calm eyes, she could see the depths of her heart with just one glance, so that she could not refuse any of his requests and do anything for him......

Jia Cong saw that Qingwen's gaze was becoming more and more supple as water as he looked at him, so he pulled out a hand from the back of his head and beckoned to her.

Although Qingwen pouted, the look on her face seemed reluctant, but the smile in her eyes could not be hidden.

She slowly moved over and leaned softly into Jia Cong's arms.

Jia Cong caressed her green silk hair scattered behind her back, although she didn't say a word, but silence was better than sound.

Every time she touched it, Qingwen felt her heart melt again......

However, when Qingwen raised her head quietly and wanted to take the initiative to kiss Jia Cong, Jia Cong avoided the corners of her lips.

This made Qingwen's eyes condense, and she gritted her teeth and said, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Jia Cong smiled, looked at her and shook his head, "You haven't rinsed your mouth yet." ”

Qingwen's eyes were pricked up, and she gritted her teeth and said, "You dislike it...... Yourself? ”

Jia Cong nodded truthfully and said, "It's weird." ”

Qingwen lay down on Jia Cong's body like an annoyed cat, and opened her mouth to bite.

But she looks fierce, but where is she willing to use force?

With just a light bite, he let go, buried his face in Jia Cong's arms, and said in a muffled voice: "I won't make ...... for you again"

Jia Cong smiled, still caressing the three thousand green silk behind her, and said, "That's not up to you." ”

Qingwen was not annoyed at all when she heard this, she only raised her head and glared at Jia Cong fiercely with Shui Lingling's eyes, and complained in a greasy voice: "The master is the most domineering!" ”

Jia Cong said "hey", pulled his hands out of the back of his head, and held Qingwen's face, but he no longer lingered, got up and got out of bed.

Qingwen was stunned for a moment, and was busy preparing to get up and serve and dress, but was pressed into the brocade quilt by Jia Cong, and said, "If there is something today, you continue to sleep." ”

Qing Wenqi said: "But don't I also want to go to Kew Gardens?" ”

Jia Cong smiled playfully and said, "You don't go." ”

Qingwen blinked, her eyebrows turned into eight characters, and said, "Don't let me go?" ”

Jia Cong smiled and said: "None of you are going, Kew Gardens is a battlefield today, what are you going to do?" ”

Qingwen's beautiful eyes were instantly dazed, and she was puzzled: "Battlefield? ”

Jia Cong rubbed her brain, pressed her raised head on the pillow, and said with a smile: "You don't have to care, just stay at home today." Sleep, I'll go somewhere else and talk to them. By the way, you are not allowed to go out until you arrive. ”

After that, Jia Cong covered Qingwen with a brocade quilt again, kissed her lightly on the forehead, and after smiling at each other, Fang turned around and left.

……

"Not going? Didn't you say okay......"

Daiyu, who has been getting up and dressing up for a long time, heard Jia Cong's words, and it was difficult to hide the disappointment in her eyes.

Jia Cong looked up and down, and saw that she was wearing a hibiscus wide-sleeved hanging brocade shirt, and below was a smoky silver luo silk yarn cotton skirt.

On the head, there is a white jade bead hairpin on the hairpin.

Beautiful, beautiful as a flower.

Zijuan on the side also changed into new clothes, combed his beard, and looked at Jia Cong in a daze.

After Jia Cong explained the reason, he said to the dumbfounded master and servant: "I thought, the Qiu family really has no reason to invite the host at this time...... Of course, these are just a few guesses on my part, and I am only 50% sure. ”

"Fifty percent sure?"

Daiyu's little face was entangled, and it was embarrassing to think about it, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "What if it's the third brother, what if you think too much?" You don't have any credentials, so you ......"

Jia Cong interrupted her words and said, "Sister Lin, I won't let my family take a risk easily, let alone Wucheng." ”

Daiyu was dumbfounded when she heard this, her eyes softened, and she looked at Jia Cong and said softly: "We might as well do it, I don't want to go to her house much, and it's not worth it if I don't go." It's just that if the third brother guesses wrong, won't he be able to get off the stage? I don't have dignity, and I can't explain it to the Qiu family......"

Listening to her soft-spoken worries, Jia Cong smiled, stretched out her hand and stroked the tips of Daiyu's forehead, thinking in her heart that this girl was actually very soft-hearted...... Then he clasped his hands in front of him, raised the corners of his lips and smiled: "Explain to the Qiu family?" Heh, Sister Lin, how does your third brother act, and why do you have to explain to the Qiu family? Just find a reason, he will understand, Sister Lin can rest assured.

Okay, you guys have a good rest, I'm leaving...... By the way, remember, you are not allowed to go out until you are here. ”

With that, he turned around and walked away without hesitation.

However, Daiyu and Zijuan had bright and brilliant eyes in their eyes, and they couldn't wait to follow him......

……

At two o'clock, a cuigai bead eight treasure car and a four-horse carriage zhulun canopy car slowly drove out of the Yanzheng Yamen.

Later, six more grandmothers got on the two green curtain carriages parked at the entrance of the yamen.

A total of seven carriages, guarded by Jia Cong and 200 horsemen.

Before leaving, Jia Cong announced in front of the gate of the Yanzheng Yamen: "From this time on, until I return, the Yanzheng Yamen will implement martial law, no one is allowed to enter or leave, the inner and outer courtyards are isolated, and those who violate the order will not be killed." Now there are too many treacherous evils, and there are too many enemies of this lord, so you need to guard against thieves plotting to kill your uncle. ”

"No!"

The three hundred horses responded together, and the salt lads who were originally in charge of guarding had no objection.

Now the touring imperial history Lin Ruhai is seriously ill in bed, and the servant imperial history was directly killed, and the entire Yanzheng Yamen group has no leader, and Jia Cong is not only the commander of the Jinyi Guard, but also the second-class uncle of the super grade, but also the nephew of the Lord of the Yanyuan, a serious relative, and the cousin of the Yanzheng Yamen......

So, he is in charge like this, and no one can say anything.

After the arrangements were made, Jia Cong didn't say anything more, turned the horse's head with a rein, and rushed to Qiu's house.

Not in a hurry.

……

Yangzhou East City, Shuanghuai Street.

Kew Gardens.

Qiu Lun, the head of the Qiu family, is nearly fifty years old, and he is also a heroic man in Yuanyu Yuezhi, with a calm bearing.

But at this moment, it seems that he is a little uneasy wandering back and forth under the gatehouse of the Qiu family.

The eyes kept opening and squinting, as if they were undecided......

The day before yesterday, his wife Tang went to the Yanzheng Yamen to see his concubine, that is, Aunt Qiu in the Yanzheng Yamen, and she didn't know which tendon was wrong, so she invited Lin Ruhai's family to Qiu Garden as a guest.

After she returned, she only said that it was a polite invitation, who would have thought that yesterday the Yanzheng Yamen passed the word that the young lady of the Lin Yanyuan family and the most beloved girls of the Jinyi Guard Commander would come to Kew Gardens as guests today, or come to the appointment.

At this time......

Yesterday, one day and one night, Qiu Lun didn't settle down.

I tried to find a reason several times and pushed the host this time, but I couldn't decide.

In the end, he had to ask the old man of the Zhao family, Zhao Pu.

Zhao Pu gave him positive advice, suggesting that the Qiu family and the Yanzheng Yamen should make this banquet well.

He thinks that Jia Cong's motive is very simple, the Bai family and the An family have had accidents one after another, and there are now only six of the eight major salt merchants left, and the trust between them has dropped to the freezing point since the moment the An family perished.

Therefore, Jia Cong's move is very likely to take the initiative to ease relations.

Zhao Pu also saw that Jia Cong now wanted to let Jinyiwei get out of the matter, and whether the new law could be implemented in Jiangnan depended on the results of the remaining fighting methods between the new party and the local nobles in Jiangnan.

And Jia Cong, who wants to restore Jinyiwei's transcendent status, there is no need for him and Jinyiwei to have a bad relationship with the remaining six salt merchants.

In particular, many of the layouts of Jinyiwei are built in Yangzhou Mansion, such as those on Phoenix Island......

Only by easing relations and living in harmony with the real controller of Yangzhou Mansion can Jinyiwei gain a foothold in Yangzhou Mansion.

Otherwise, with power and killing, hundreds of thousands of people in Yangzhou City will not be able to be subdued.

Qiu Lun thought so, so he took over the glorious task of easing the salt merchant and the Jinyi guard......

It's just that in his heart, he is still uneasy.

Because he knew that Jia Cong could easily investigate that the Qiu family was once the staunchest supporter of the Bai family.

Even during the three days that the Jinyi guards had banned the Bai family, the Qiu family had thought about what to do to support the Bai family.

These are not top secrets.

As long as you check carefully, Jia Cong can know.

In this way, Jia Cong came in person today, will he give him a good look?

After hesitating and pacing back and forth for hundreds of steps, Qiu Lun gritted his teeth and thought to himself, what was the use of him still struggling with these?

Since the old man of the Zhao family judged that Jia Cong came to ease up, then Jia Cong would definitely not be stupid enough to let him not get off the stage.

The benefit of the tongue is meaningless.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if Jia Cong gives him some ugly looks in person, he won't really do anything to him, and he will endure it for a while.

The Qiu family is a businessman, and they do not attach too much importance to the so-called "family reputation" and "family reputation".

If you can really take this opportunity to have a good relationship with the Yanzheng Yamen and Jinyiwei, the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages!

Thinking about this node, Qiu Lun finally settled down.

But suddenly remembered that before he went to Zhao's house yesterday, Zhao Pu reminded him: "At this time, we must pay attention to everything, and we must not make the slightest mistake and turn a good thing into a bad thing......"

Originally, Qiu Lun would not have believed that there would be an accident in Kew Gardens.

Because even a sweeping servant girl in Kew Gardens is a child of the Qiu family who has saved up for decades, and he knows the roots, and the whole family has been working in the Qiu family for generations, which is worthy of trust.

But at this moment, he felt that it was still not safe enough, so he said to the person who had been standing beside him: "Song Er, have all the arrangements in the garden been made?" Not a single grass or tree can be missed, and in the lake, I know of several of the best water ghosts, ambushing in the water and waiting for the opportunity to assassinate ......"

When Song Er heard this, he smiled and said, "Master, don't the slaves still know this truth?" You can rest assured that the minions are also guarding against this, so they personally took thirty people with sharpened bamboo poles and stabbed them into the pool thousands of times, without missing any of them, and let people trawl the net back and forth twice before stopping. As for other places, it is better to say, Zhang Baoer led people to lead more than a dozen big dogs, and tossed for the night last night, never daring to miss an inch of land. ”

Qiu Lun nodded slowly when he heard this, thought about it and said, "Are the arrangements of the people who serve reliable?" ”

Song Er hurriedly replied: "Today is different from the past, so the slaves make their own opinions, unless they are more than two generations of old Chen people, they are not allowed to enter the garden today, and no one can ask for help." ”

When Qiu Lun heard this, he was finally satisfied, and glanced at Song Er with appreciation.

Song Er is only in his early thirties this year, and he is the son of the old housekeeper of the Qiu family, and the Song family has also been on an errand in the Qiu family since their ancestors.

Originally, Qiu Lun was worried that Song Er was too young to be the chief housekeeper, but now it seems that it is not bad.

The family has a child, and he has been exposed to it since he was a child, and it is really easy to use.

I was about to say that after finishing today, I would go back and appreciate Song Er's something, but I saw Song Er's small eyes suddenly open, and said, "Master, here!" ”

Qiu Lun heard a stirring spirit, turned his head to look at the west corner of Shuanghuai Street, and saw four horses riding on the road, followed by several carriages, slowly coming.

In front of the first carriage, a noble young man wearing a purple and gold crown, wearing a flying fish suit, and a sword hanging from his waist, rode on a tall horse, dazzling and extravagant!

Didn't you say that it was the hour, but it was the hour......
