An unprecedented bad news, on the contrary, really made Huitong open his heart knot and become angry with Xu Xun. The two discussed for a long time in the east wing, and Huitong patted his chest and took care of the follow-up of the forged treasure map, and even swore that the custody could be put into the Zhao family, and then ignored Xu Xun's retention and resigned, and only went to see Xu Liang when he left.

After sending him away, Xu Xun turned around and went back to the main room. In just a while, Sister-in-law Jin Liu's wife had already put on the table a full table of meals, chicken, duck and fish, all kinds of meat, which looked rare and hearty. Although these big bowls and plates have been on the table for a while, but now that it is summer, when he stretched out his hand to invite Wu Shouzheng to the table, the dishes were still hot. While eating, he picked up the topic just now, and heard Wu Shouzheng say that he came to Nanjing because the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau had purchased a silk horse before, and a thousand of them were distributed to the Wu family, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.

"So, Wu Yuanwai's family runs a business of buying raw silk and then weaving it into silk?"

The reason why Wu Shouzheng was willing to go forward and backward for Xu Xun before was all for this fateful apportionment. It must be known that doing goods for the imperial court is definitely a first-class drudgery in these years, things have to be urgent and demanding, not to mention, and the money is very small, or even not given at all. Therefore, although he said that his family was big and his business was big, he could bear it this time, but if there were two, three or four times after this time, he would definitely not be able to bear it. So, he couldn't care about eating anymore, so he stood up and said deeply at Xu Xun: "All in all, I'm desperate, please help me with the seventh son!" ”

"Latham & Watkins, get out of the house." Xu Xun glanced at Ruisheng, and when the little guy stepped forward to help Wu Shouzheng and pressed the person on the stool, he asked, "So, Wu Yuanwai came to Nanjing to make a special trip to find Wu Dayin to intercede?" ”

"It's just a dead horse as a live horse doctor, after all, Lord Wu and I have the same surname." Wu Shouzheng remembered that his horseman had played tricks at the east gate of Yingtianfu, and immediately became a little embarrassed, and then explained with a smile, "But I can't say that I made a special trip, I also came to collect raw silk this time." The raw silk in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was mostly wrapped by a few large households, and my capital was limited, so I had to run farther. There are a few of my subordinates in Jurong and other counties near Nanjing, and I plan to go to them to collect the raw silk this time. ”

"Oh?"

Xu Xun originally just wanted to inquire about Wu Shouzheng's difficulties and see if he could repay him after this period of time passed, but at this moment, when he heard Wu Shouzheng also mention Jurong, he was really interested. After carefully probing two sentences, he deliberately asked about Zhao Qinqi, and saw that Wu Shouzheng only hesitated slightly and said truthfully, not only had he heard of Zhao Qin's bad deeds, but even knew two bitter masters, and he suddenly came to his senses. After he knocked on the side to hint at the explicit, Wu Shouzheng finally couldn't resist the temptation of Xu Xun promising Fu Rong to intercede in person, and he turned his heart sideways, and actually agreed to be a lobbyist.

After sending Wu Shouzheng away, Jin Liu's sister-in-law removed all the leftovers from the table, and Xu Xun, who breathed a sigh of relief, returned to the east room and sat down at the desk. Under the lamplight, he reopened the note he had just gotten and spread it out on the table, he looked at the very different handwriting on it, and he didn't know how long he hesitated, when he suddenly heard a squirming movement, and Latham suddenly screamed on the side.

"Who?"

Xu Xun looked up when he heard this, and saw that a black shadow flashed into the door, he immediately stood up, and the next moment he recognized that the person was actually the little girl's godmother. Looking down at the note on the table, he couldn't help but ask, "The note just now was sent by my mother?" ”

"I sent it." Li Qingniang nodded expressionlessly, and didn't look at Ruisheng who smacked her tongue, just stared at Xu Xun and said, "Originally, I should have left when I sent this, but because I saw the monk, I couldn't help but stay for a while." ”

Hearing that Li Qingniang actually recognized Huitong, Xu Xun's heart suddenly suddenly, and the surname Suo asked bluntly: "So, I think the next sentence was added by my mother?" ”

"That's right, it's me. I happened to see the monk meet with people, and I thought that the seventh prince didn't know, but I didn't expect that I was meddling. Speaking of this, Li Qingniang paused, and then said, "I heard something that I shouldn't have heard, and the seventh prince forgives me." ”

Knowing that this was another master in front of him, Xu Xun only had a wry smile in his heart. It's just that everyone has already made it clear, and he doesn't care about himself, so he has to raise his hand and ask Li Qingniang to sit down: "If you hear it, you hear it, Hengzhi mother, you are Ruyi's godmother, and what I want to do has no conflict with you." You're here to meet you just to confess this, right? ”

"That Qincha Dali Temple right Cheng is here, the Zhao family is more confident, this time it is directly with my master to set the eldest lady's wedding date in the middle of the month, and there are only a few days left from now. The lord did not allow the eldest lady to leave the door for half a step...... Ruyi is also difficult to come by. So I want to ask the Seventh Prince, is it sure that Zhao Qin will be solved before the Zhao family marries? ”

"I'm not sure." Xu Xun said these three words bluntly, then shook his head and said, "If that Qin cha hadn't come, for the sake of the Zhao family's family, I could have launched it earlier." After all, with Father-in-law Fu here, he can take advantage of the situation to oppress people. But now you also said that Zhao Qin and that Qin Cha have a very close relationship, if you can't do things solidly, without the support of Gonggong Fu, all the previous efforts may be in vain. ”

"The Seventh Prince can't go all out to think of a way?" Li Qingniang's brows furrowed into a big pimple, and her voice couldn't help but raise a few points, "You can't inform Gonggong Fu as soon as possible to take precautions in advance, and then ......"

"Then how can I explain to Grandpa Fu that I actually know such secret information? Could it be that he came from the Shen family? Moreover, it is a Qincha with a heavenly constitution in his mouth, how can he be guarded against it? Others secretly arrived in Nanjing, just to catch Fu Gonggong off guard, if Fu Gonggong had any drastic response at this time, who knew that Fei Youcheng would not be more ruthless? ”

Li Qingniang looked at Xu Xun, almost about to tell Shen Yue's true identity, but remembering the little girl's repeated instructions before leaving, she couldn't help but hold back, but still stabbed: "Then if my master wants Ruyi to be a dowry girl and marry to the Shen family with the eldest lady, the seventh young master can be as calm as now?" ”

"Then I'll redeem her first!" Xu Xun blurted out almost without thinking about it, seeing Li Qingniang's face full of disbelief, he himself was a little surprised, but he didn't have time to think about it so much, he just said word by word, "I can ask the sixth uncle to come forward, if the sixth uncle can't do it, I will go to ask Master Chen, who is a close confidant of Father-in-law Fu, if I want to come to Master Shen, I won't climb the Zhao family as an in-law, and even a girl won't let go!" ”

Seeing that Xu Xun said more resolute his expression, Li Qingniang couldn't tell whether she was happy or sad. But since she encountered a great change, she almost loved Shen Yue as much as her daughter, and at this time, she said again: "It's easy for you to say! Ruyi still has family and relatives in the Shen family, and the eldest lady loves her the most, it is easy for you to redeem her, and after that, will you still be a girl? You are obviously not at ease with the land of Jinling, but if you marry a bride in the future, where will you put her? ”

"Who said I wanted her to be a girl?" Xu Xun only felt an indescribable irritability in his heart, waved his hand angrily, and said sullenly, "If she doesn't worry about her family, I can redeem them all." If she doesn't rely on her, I can recognize her as my sister, and in the future, let her choose a good family by herself, which is better than being a girl in the Shen family......"

The more Xu Xun spoke, the softer his voice became, and gradually he had an indescribable emotion. Li Qingniang stood there and watched coldly, and suddenly sighed softly: "Alas, in short, everything is entrusted to the Seventh Prince." If it really doesn't work, Ruyi will never blame you, it's all her life. No matter how strong and capable a woman in this world is, she can't earn this life......"

"Life? God is used to playing with people, but even so, I still only believe in one sentence, my life is up to me! ”

Xu Xun raised his head and saw that Li Qingniang had already stepped out of the threshold with one foot, he paused for a moment and then continued, "You give me a message to Ruyi, let her rest assured, I will do my best and let her not think so much." Don't always think about her young lady, she herself is in danger, think about yourself as serious! If there is really something, let her remember that the hero does not suffer the loss in front of her, Mom, you just have to inform me first, don't let her do it! ”

Although she never turned around, listening to Xu Xun's words, Li Qingniang could roughly imagine the expression on the face of the man behind her, and couldn't help but smile dumbly, and put down the curtain in her hand with a slight nod. At this time, Ruisheng saw his young master sitting down, and he had been adhering to Xu Xun's instructions to never leave, and he finally couldn't help it as if the pestle was used as an ornament in the room.

"Young Master, that Ruyi girl is Miss Shen's girl?" As soon as the words fell, seeing that his young master nodded with a dark face, the little guy didn't know where he got the courage, but he opened his mouth and said, "If the young master really likes her, wouldn't it be okay to redeem himself and bring him into Beijing to marry her?" Horizontally up there, no one knows she's once a girl......"

Xu Xun was simply stunned by Ruisheng's whimsical words, raised his head and looked at the little guy for a long time without blinking, and then reprimanded angrily: "You haven't seen her again, talking nonsense!" ”

"I'm not talking nonsense." Ruisheng was full of satisfaction at this time, all for Xu Xun's sake, and muttered softly, seeing that Xu Xun didn't pay attention to him anymore, he even leaned in, "Liu Laohan in the village said before, if it wasn't for the mother-in-law he liked, which bachelor would care about the trivial things in another woman's house?" There are no elders above the young master, and you can make your own decisions if you like it! ”

*************************

The small courtyard in the northwest corner of the Shen family.

In the west room, the window is ajar, and the light of the crescent moon shines on the ground through the window and the green gauze gap in the window, making the stuffy room seem a little cooler. Shen Yue sat at the fir desk in front of the window with a flushed face, but she knew that her blushing was not because of the weather, but because of Li Qingniang's words just now.

After a long time, she said softly: "Godmother, you don't show up in front of me these days, lest my father don't know when he will remember you." After a pause, she continued, "He told me all about his plans last time, but now that Fei Youcheng is here, it may not be effective." I have to help him, and I have to help myself. ”

As she spoke, she walked to the bed and opened a rattan box, took out a small bag and stuffed it into Li Qingniang's hand, and when she saw her resignation, she clenched Li Qingniang's hand and said softly: "Godmother, this is the body I have accumulated." Don't be busy refusing, it's not for anything else, it's for you to take it out and do things well, after all, it's too late for these rice to be said to be mice, and the money can't be transferred. Godmother, I've already thought about it, please go and help me do something......"

ps: cough, I recommend a historical novel "The Journey of the Ming Dynasty" that was strongly promoted at the same time, cough, the details of the historical materials are checked very carefully, and the lack is that it is written a bit like a biography, especially in the first few chapters. The link is at the bottom, and you can poke and poke
