Chapter 718: The mind has been decided
But what was Grandmother's reason for doing this?
Why did my grandmother urgently need these 300,000 taels of silver?
This is not a small amount, what did my grandmother secretly do with these 300,000 taels of silver?
Lie Changan thought of what Yu Yang said to him in the East Palace yesterday, and when he returned triumphantly, he would tell him the secret he had promised about him and the future of his hometown.
What kind of secret could it be serious enough to affect his future and that of his hometown?
Lie Changan was puzzled by this.
And this secret, could it have something to do with my grandmother's hostility to her hometown?
Lie Changan would never believe that the reason why his grandmother was so disliked was just what she said, and some people were born unable to enter her eyes.
This argument is too far-fetched.
Even so, it can only be said that I don't like my hometown, but my grandmother's disgust and hostility are too obvious, as if she regards her hometown as an enemy, otherwise she wouldn't have shown the same eyes as when she looked at her hometown during the day, and she couldn't wait to get rid of it.
Therefore, Lie Changan fully suspected that Wang Yanyun's incident was also related to his grandmother.
If Wang Yanyun's letter was delivered directly to his hometown, his hometown would never go to the appointment, let alone have such a thrilling encounter, her grandmother stopped the letter, and forcibly inserted her foot into it, turning things around sharply to the point where she is now.
Was Grandmother really well-intentioned?
Lie Changan has no reason to believe it anymore.
And the people who talked about his grandmother's appointment to his hometown that night were really not instructed by his grandmother? Otherwise, the subordinates of the Liefu have always been very strict with their grandmothers, and they must not discuss right and wrong behind their backs, why was there such a coincidence that night?
Lie Changan didn't plan to interrogate the people in the house, because if it was really instructed by his grandmother, it was estimated that it would be the same as the last 300,000 taels of silver incident, and he would find nothing after all.
Not long after Lie Changan groaned, he called Pei Song in.
The night before he left for the expedition, Pei Song was told that he didn't have to travel with the army tomorrow, and when these words came out of Lie Chang'an's mouth, Pei Song almost thought that he had heard it wrong.
Pei Song was stunned for a long time before he reacted, and said in shock, "What? Boss, I'm staying in the house? ”
"Yes."
Lie Changan did not hesitate, his expression was serious, proving that he was not joking.
"You don't have to go with me on the expedition, just stay in the mansion."
"Why?"
Pei Song thought that he had done something wrong, so he scratched his ears and cheeks in a hurry, "Boss, I even packed my luggage, don't fool me." ”
"I didn't mean not to take you, it's just that it's useful for you to stay in the house, and I can rest assured."
Pei Song didn't understand, he had been fighting side by side with the boss since five years ago, he had never been afraid of such a thing as being born and dying, and he had never been afraid of such a thing as killing the enemy, and the boss had always regarded him as his right-hand man, so it was impossible not to take him, why did this good thing suddenly change the night before leaving?
"Boss, is something wrong?"
Lie Changan didn't say it directly, for fear of causing Pei Song's panic, but he still told him earnestly, "I need you to stay in the mansion and take good care of Madame, unless she enters the palace, you must protect her safety." Moreover, after I leave, if anything happens in the house, you must write to me and report it to me in time. ”
Pei Song heard the non-negotiable in the boss's tone, and the serious and serious expression let him know that the boss had already made up his mind.
However, although he feels that it is a pity, he will obey the boss's arrangement unconditionally.
Pei Song knew that his wife's safety was more important than everything, and only by protecting his wife could the boss have no worries on the front line, be invincible, and be invincible.
Thinking of this, Pei Song's eyes were firm, and he nodded heavily, "Don't worry, boss, I promise to complete the task." ”
Lie Chang'an's tense face eased slightly, and he bowed his head silently.
