How could Jiang Yan be so good? Qiao Siwan frowned slightly, and rarely asked, just said, "Is there anything else?" ”

Zhang said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that this murder should not be sloppy, and specially sent a good coffin. ”

"Oh?" Jiang Yan even sent the coffin, maybe he was too attentive, Qiao Siwan said in his heart, and he didn't pay attention to this matter anymore.

Zhang said: "The prince has not rested all night, and now he is still entertaining guests in the front hall, and now he is a part-time job on the back——"

Qiao Siwan knew that although Zhang was sophisticated, he was a slave in many part-time jobs, and he was not very easy to manage, and there would be people below who would be dissatisfied, so she thought for a while and said, "Bring the roster of people in the house." ”

When Zhang heard this, he immediately ordered someone to bring the roster. Qiao Siwan read the roster once, and divided thirty people to entertain guests, twenty people to serve tea and pour water, ten people to send and receive cups and saucers, and each part-time job planned to respond to the manpower, each performing its own duties. She saw the expression on Zhang's face and said, "I'm not in good health, so these part-time jobs are going to be handed over to you, I'll listen to it." ”

Zhang nodded quickly and said, "Yes, the slave obeys." ”

Qiao Siwan listened from the sidelines, watching Zhang arrange manpower and handle part-time jobs.

At that moment, four mothers came in and said they wanted something. Zhang was about to bring them something, Qiao Siwan glanced at Hongyu, Hongyu took the account book and looked at it, pointed to the tea leaves in it and said, "This tea is opened by mistake, go back and calculate it clearly!" The two men were stunned for a moment, and immediately blushed in shame and withdrew.

Qiao Siwan looked at Hongyu and nodded approvingly, during this time, she was also thinking, Hongyu is older, she should find her a good mother-in-law, although in the eyes of others, Hongyu is a girl, but in her eyes, Hongyu and Wang Yu are her right-hand men, especially Hongyu, who grew up together since childhood, the love of master and servant, and the love of Hongyu's loyalty, Qiao Siwan really can't bear to marry Hongyu too far. If it was chosen in Kyoto, then the only way to marry her was to marry a striking and capable officer, who was about a humble Hanshi. If she marries, Qiao Siwan can give her a large dowry, which can make her worry about food and clothing for the rest of her life, but after marrying, whether she is treated well by her lover or not, Qiao Siwan can't control it. If she marries to do business, Hongyu can stay in the mansion, and under her nose, no one dares to treat her badly, but in the Yanwang Mansion, Qiao Siwan can't think of a suitable candidate for a while.

Now that she saw that Hongyu was managing the part-time layer, Qiao Siwan thought more and more that she should keep Hongyu by her side,—— it depended on her own benefits.

At this time, Qiao Siwan caught a glimpse of Jiang Chi walking in, dressed in plain clothes, his face was fine, Qiao Siwan knew that he had eased up, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Have all the part-time jobs been arranged?" ”

Jiang Chi nodded and said, "You don't care about these things, go back early to rest." ”

Rest again, where is she so squeamish. Qiao Siwan said lightly: "The boss is gone, I should also do my part for him." ”

Jiang Chi saw that she insisted, so he didn't say more, but just asked the people next to him to take care of him, he turned his head to Zhang Shi and said, "Those innocent maid mothers who were burned to death by the fire should also give more silver to their families." Alright, you go down first. ”

Zhang Shifu hurriedly agreed, beware of retreating.

Jiang Chi saw that there were no outsiders in the hall, so he said to Qiao Siwan: "This part-time job is not an unintentional fire, but someone deliberately set it on fire." ”

Qiao Siwan nodded, they were the same opinion. For so many years, Yanwangfu has never had this kind of part-time job, the place is not burned, but it happened to burn down the Anle Yuan, and it happened to be in this sensitive period: "How do you want to check?" ”

Everything has been burned down, and I am afraid that it will be very difficult to check again.

"I asked people to search the entire home from top to bottom, and I believe that if it is man-made, there will definitely be clues left." Jiang Chi said this, glanced at Qiao Siwan's slightly pale expression, and said, "I'm also tired, let's go back and rest together, there will be many other guests coming next day." ”

Qiao Siwan knew that he was trying to trick himself into going back to rest, so he said this, so he smiled at the moment, and did not poke him, the two returned to He Xintang to have dinner together, and then Jiang Chi watched Qiao Siwan take a lunch break, and waited for her to fall asleep before she came out and called Hongyu and Wang Yu out: "There will be a lot of guests in the next day today, you must take good care of the princess, and don't let her be touched." ”

"Yes." Hongyu and Wang Yu glanced at each other and replied at the same time.

They have never seen such a solemn demeanor of the prince...... Hongyu looked at Jiang Chi and said, "Shizi, do you want the young lady to go back to the princess's mansion to avoid it first?" ”

Jiang Chi was stunned and completely stunned.

I thought the plot wanted to be slow and not be in a hurry.,This article is going to end in the future.,It's really urgent.,I'll treasure it first, and then see the ending==.

Qiao Siwan got up from a nap and was no longer Jiang Chi's figure, she knew that he must be busy in it now, and her heart was sad, so she had no intention of staying in the house anymore and coming out to meet guests in new clothes.

The eldest princess sent a funeral and said that she would not come in person, but the Marquis of Zhenguo came to visit in person.

Qiao Siwan with this cousin. It's been a long time since we've seen each other.

Qiao Siwan arrived at the mourning hall, and her eyes were all plain, very bleak, the black coffin was in the center, and the coffin was engraved with a quiet and heavy "Fu." Words, beyond the crowd, Qiao Siwan caught a glimpse of Lin Zhiran. Lin Zhiran stood on the side of the mourning hall, his expression was a little colder than usual, the light in the hall was slightly dim, and the weak candle flame next to the tablet reflected his unexciting eyes, except for silence, it was indifferent.

Qiao Siwan looked around, Jiang Chi was not here. She thought about it for a while, and ordered someone to invite Lin Zhiran to go to the small hall to speak.

"Wan'er, we haven't seen each other in a long time." When he arrived at the small hall, Lin Zhiran looked at Qiao Siwan with a smile.

"Yes, my cousin has always been busy." Qiao Siwan smiled decently.

Lin Zhiran gradually showed a confused demeanor, it was not that the event was busy, it was that he always avoided her gaze in various places where he could see her, and from the bottom of his heart, he did not really let go of the emotions that had been suppressed in his heart. Although he has a wife and a son. Finally, it was hard to settle. It's just that he is different from Jiang Yan. He can keep this emotion in his heart well and wish her silently.

"I wonder what my cousin is visiting today?" Lin Zhiran and Jiang Chongjun have never had any contact,

It's not for Jiang Chongjun.

Lin Zhiran just looked at her. He didn't speak for a long time.

Qiao Siwan was stunned for a long time, turned around and looked out the window, and realized: "Cousin has something to say, it's okay to say it directly."

Glancing at her silently, Lin Zhiran put away the emotions that overflowed with words, and his face was full of Xiao Su: "There is Nanzhao outside, the border cannot be easy for a day, there is the prince of Yan Wang who supports the army and is self-respecting, and the court is difficult to control, only half of the six yamen in the court are subordinate to the prince, and the newly promoted generals in the court are subordinate to Jiang Chi, and the monarchs and ministers of the court are opposite, and the forces will be divided, and the high and low cannot be united, which is regarded as a taboo for the country." Such an impasse is perpetuated. Yu Guo is unlucky. You. What should I do in the future? ”

Listened to this. Qiao Siwan was slightly distracted, the situation in the court, she was not unclear, Jiang Yan was so jealous of Jiang Chi but did not act because he was afraid of Chi's authority, but this part-time job was only floating under the water, and no one mentioned it in front of her. There is no draw above the court, and the winner can only be divided in the end, who is the loser? And who is the winner? This game of chess, how to continue to move forward at this point. Very nervous; Now it's not just magpies and mussels fighting, there are other Wang Weng waiting to see magpies and mussels fighting!

And this Lin Zhiran in front of him, Qiao Siwan found out for the first time, he never said a word, just looked coldly at the battle between Jiang Chi and Jiang Yan, but he still had a gourd, as if he didn't react at all, but now he came out and said this.

"The advantage of my cousin saying this is that I want to stand on the side of the prince?" Qiao Siwan couldn't help herself, so she asked.

"Nope. I'm not going to be on anyone's side. Lin Zhiran did not hesitate at all.

Qiao Siwan smiled gradually: "I thought that my cousin was on my side, so so my cousin was the same. ”

"She's too adventurous. With no control over victory, I can't let her act so recklessly! Lin Zhiran said: "Wan'er, I know you are very embarrassed, but you are a clever woman, especially you are very nervous about Jiang Chi, and even I believe that if you are willing to speak, the prince will also listen to your advice." I hope you can think about the common people, think about the court, and ease the fight between them. ”

Jiang Chi is the son of the powerful King of Yan, while the crown prince is the orthodox bloodline. Lin Yuanxin dared to resist the prince behind his back, but Lin Zhiran did not agree. The Lin family is a family of loyal ministers for a hundred years. In any part-time job, he could not stand against the royal family. It's like the King of Thailand rebelled. He also has to carry it to the end, even if he is not happy in his heart, the responsibility and responsibility of the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion are all things that he cannot shrink into. Seeing that the disputes in the court are becoming more and more tragic, he is also facing a choice, although the prince is eyeing Qiao Siwan at this time, he is not a little mediocre in handling government affairs, so the word loyalty, the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion must not let go, nor can it stand on Jiang Chi's side.

Speechless, Qiao Siwan felt a moment of suffocation. She half-closed her eyes, avoiding its light, and her beard spread out for a moment, and her pupils were clear. "My cousin thinks too highly of me, and I don't have these abilities." Qiao Siwan's lips pulled out a wry smile, "Chi is a stubborn person, and the crown prince is invincible, how can he easily abandon his authority and plan nothing?" ”

In Qiao Siwan's opinion, the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion is too stupid and loyal, and if it is a cousin, it will be difficult. The cousin will choose to be her backup, but above the court, the Marquis of Zhenguo chooses to stand by the side of the prince. Qiao Siwan was speechless for such a choice.

"Don't be presumptuous, you nod, I think Jiang Chi will agree." Lin Zhiran replied

Answer. "When the time comes, I will do everything I can to keep you safe."

I'm afraid that I won't be able to help you when the time comes, Qiao Siwan said heartily, but said calmly: "This matter can't be handled overnight, cousin, please give me a little time to think about it."

Lin Zhiran thought for a moment. His expression softened, but with a hint of concern.

After finishing speaking, Qiao Siwan stood up, saluted him, and then said, "Please greet the old lady on my behalf." Then he turned around and said goodbye.

"Wan'er." A low call fixed her posture, and this tone seemed to be much gentler than Shicai.

"If you have any problems, you can always come to me."

Qiao Siwan walked out quickly. Is it difficult? The difference between the Tao and the Tao is not compatible, even if it is a relative, it will be indifferent, Qiao Siwan never expected that the Marquis of Zhenguo actually chose to stand on the side of the prince, and if he thought about it, no one wanted to revive the beacon fire, if Jiang Chi was chosen, it would be unjustifiable to seize the throne, but no one knew better than Qiao Siwan that Jiang Chi did not intend to seize the throne, but Jiang Yan pressed step by step, talking about self-defense.

"What about the son?" Qiao Siwan returned to the mourning hall, or Jiang Chi was nowhere to be seen.

The person who was raised on the side reported: "Back to the princess, the prince saw the marquis of Zhenguo and went back to the study." ”
