This time, Gu Mingyuan's order to verify was too urgent, so after getting the news, he immediately came back non-stop.

Who knows if it's a coincidence, it's bumping into the good things of the prince!

God knows, this old house is on fire the most fatal, and now the eyes of the prince are clearly that if he doesn't say something, he can kill himself with just his eyes!

Zhou Tian turned seven or eight thoughts in his heart, but his face was still calm, but who was Gu Mingyuan, this Zhou Tian had been his personal guard since he was a child, and now he looked like this, he clearly didn't know what bad things he was muttering in his heart.

Therefore, he just glanced at the other party and said lightly: "Say, what's the matter." ”

Zhou Tian also knew the weight of Qin Huaiyu in Gu Mingyuan's heart, and he didn't hide it from her at the moment, but only said respectfully: "Back to the prince, the things you asked your subordinates to check before, your subordinates have already found out." This matter is related to the Zhou family in Jiangnan, this is the evidence collected by his subordinates, please take a look. ”

Gu Mingyuan took it as he said, but after reading it, he frowned and said, "Jiangnan Zhou family...... What is the origin?"

When he said this, he saw that Qin Huaiyu was also looking at the things in his hand, because he handed it to her, he asked with a smile, "Aren't you afraid of dirty eyes?"

Qin Huaiyu glanced at him with a smile and said, "What are you afraid of, speaking of the Zhou family, I know a little." ”

She said, paused and smiled: "But let Zhou Tian talk about it first." ”

After hearing this, Zhou Qian replied: "Back to the prince and princess, the Zhou family is the richest man in Jiangnan, and he is quite famous. In the previous Yellow River disaster, it is said that the Zhou family donated half of their net worth, so they got the opportunity to be summoned by the emperor. On the emperor's birthday, the head of the Zhou family was invited to participate. After that, the head of the Zhou family stayed in the capital and never returned, and these evidences were secretly searched from his house. ”

According to the previous clues, they traced back to the Zhou family. It's just that judging from the current evidence, the Zhou family is just a pawn who has been pushed to the front, and there are still people behind the scenes.

Now this evidence, although it can directly put the Zhou family into prison, it is easy to startle the snake. Therefore, Zhou Tian sneaked in, and after obtaining the consent of his master, he first secretly guarded the people so that he could catch big fish.

After listening to Zhou Tian's words, Qin Huaiyu said thoughtfully: "Who is there in the Zhou family now, have you checked this?"

Hearing this, Zhou Tian nodded and said: "Back to the princess, my subordinates have already checked, this Zhou master has four sons and one daughter, all of whom are in Jiangnan, and he is the only one in the capital." Well, I also brought a favored concubine named Bai Yan with me. ”

Hearing this, Qin Huaiyu frowned slightly, and said, "It's all in Jiangnan?"

"Exactly. ”

After getting Zhou Tian's reply, Qin Huaiyu frowned more and more, nodded and said, "I know." ”

Seeing that Qin Huaiyu's expression was not quite right, Gu Mingyuan asked softly, "Is there anything wrong?"

Qin Huaiyu shook his head and said with a smile: "No, I thought that he would bring his heirs with him when he entered Beijing this time." After all, if you are summoned by the emperor, if you bring your children, won't you get an extra reward? ”

This is also reasonable, so Gu Mingyuan didn't think much about it, just smiled and said, "Maybe he has other plans." ”

When he said this, he looked at Zhou Tian and said: "You have investigated the vicinity of the Zhou Mansion in the past two days, and if there is no abnormality, you will immediately arrest the people of the Zhou Mansion secretly for interrogation. ”

Zhou Tian is used to doing this, so he naturally knows what to do, so he immediately responded: "Don't worry, your subordinates will definitely live up to their responsibilities." ”

After Zhou Tian left, Qin Huaiyu looked at the evidence and asked, "Lord Wang, is this a turtle in the urn?"

Hearing this, Gu Mingyuan curled his lips and smiled, and said, "The one who knows the king, the princess also." ”

Although the Zhou family's line is a little thin, if you check it carefully, maybe you can really fish those people out.

But this premise needs to be peeled away.

Qin Huaiyu looked at him and smiled, and said, "Then I wish the prince what he wants." ”

......

In the afternoon, Yao Yue'er came to Qin Huaiyu with Kuo'er in her arms.

The little one is now at an active age, babbling something with a rattle, and although no one understands it, he enjoys himself.

Qin Huaiyu asked Kuo'er to crawl and play on the soft collapse, and told the maid and the nurse to watch it lively, while she was chatting with Yao Yue'er.

said that it was small talk, but most of the questions were about the Zhou Mansion.

"Recently, how is the business of the Zhou family on the other side of the door?"

Hearing Qin Huaiyu ask this, Yao Yue'er thought about it for a while, and then smiled after a while: "Since he showed his face on the emperor's birthday, that Master Zhou can be said to be prosperous, and the wealth in the shop is secondary, and he himself has a lot of contacts. ”

Although the Yao family's business is not particularly large, it also has a share in the capital, so she naturally has channels to learn about the situation of the Zhou family.

After Yao Yue'er finished speaking, she pondered and said: "Speaking of which, that Master Zhou seems to have a plan with the officialdom. ”

Hearing this, Qin Huaiyu paused for a moment in making tea, and then said with a smile: "Let's talk about it." ”

Yao Yue'er told her news, and said at the end: "Naturally, this may be because I think too much." However, that Master Zhou is so long-sleeved and good at dancing, he doesn't look like he is doing business seriously. ”

She is a businessman, and she has been exposed to it since she was a child, so she naturally knows which side of the officials she needs to make friends with to do business. You know, this official is not the more you know, the better.

The so-called officials and businessmen protect each other, one side of the silver money and one side of the power, for a big Buddha to do things, but if it is full of gods and Buddhas, in the end, the silver earned is afraid that it is not enough incense money, then it will be worth the loss.

However, this old man Zhou has a good relationship, which is said to be good, but when it comes to doing business, he always feels a little weird.

After listening to Yao Yue'er's words, Qin Huaiyu was speechless for a while, and only asked after a while: "That...... Do you know what is going on with his children?"

Yao Yue'er shook her head and said with a smile: "I don't know about this." ”

Originally, Qin Huaiyu didn't have much hope, after all, the Zhou family was too ordinary in the capital, and the only eye-catching place was to show his face on the emperor's birthday, but this was not to the point where it would be paid too much attention.

She thought about it, got up and ordered Jinshu a few words, and when she went out, she turned around and sat back, and said with a smile: "Come, let's continue to drink tea." ”

......

Jinshu's news was heard very quickly, and the news that Qin Huaiyu wanted to inquire about was not a secret, so he came back in just two or three hours.

At that time, Yao Yue'er had already returned to the room, and Qin Huaiyu was the only one in the main courtyard.
