Chapter 351: Thinking Far-Reaching
The reason why Gu Feng wanted to get married to the Zhonglian Mansion was because of the dirty thoughts in his heart, and secondly, he felt that he couldn't rely on the big tree of Qin Siyue (Longxi), and now he was treated with one positive and one negative, and directly kowtowed on the sickbed with a handful of snot and tears: "I deserve to die, I don't know what to do! I deserve it! I really deserve it!"
Qiu also confessed in front of Mrs. Zhang: "You don't know, the princess was cold before, we didn't know what to do, just when she looked down on us, now that there is something to understand, who is near and who is far, Prince Zhonglian is usually the kind appearance of Corporal Lixian, who would expect such a ruthless hand behind his back?"
"It's all a family, and it's right to ask for justice. Mrs. Zhang is happy to sell well on behalf of her daughter-in-law, "But although the princess is noble, Prince Zhonglian is an elder after all, and there is no conclusive evidence, it is really not good to force each other too much, you let Brother Zhen understand." β
Qiu Shi became more and more ashamed: "It's not a princess, we have suffered a loss and have no place to go." β
After this episode, the reputation of the loyal and honest king was completely ruined.
The envoys of the Jingying Festival have always been served by nobles, such as Gu Changbai (Mokun) today, Huang Zijie who took office, and Gu Tianyin twenty years ago.
Compared with Gu Jiafengju Gu Changbai, Gu Feng, the patriarch, seems to have no value on the surface, but in fact, it is not, the Loyal and Lian King will be a corporal of Lixian, and it is still the influence of Ning Guofu on the Beijing Defense Battalion. Fortunately, Gu Jing understood that it could not be created into a pattern of "Emperor Zhongdi of the Shenlong General's Mansion and the King of the Zhenguo Mansion", so the King of Zhonglian could not get the benefits. In the eyes of the world, King Zhonglian was obviously annoyed and angry, and wanted to give Gu Fengqin a look - by the way, Gu Jiaqin was swept away and disgusted Gu Changbai (Mokun).
King Zhonglian knew that this was a bureau set up for himself, but even if he checked all the political enemies, there was no result, Qin Siyue (Longxi) made a big fuss about the palace of King Lian and sent a secret envoy to Shanxi to investigate, but the result surprised him, Yan Jin replied, saying that there were indeed four people looking for him that night, claiming to be entrusted by the township party to carry the book, and brought a box of specialties, chattering and sitting on two teas before sending people away, opened the letter and found that it was a blank piece of paper, he also wondered, the next morning got the news of his father's death, hurriedly took leave and returned to his hometown, but it was too late to investigate deeply, he had already pressed this matter behind, there was such a thing behind him, it was really unpredictableγ
King Zhonglian thought about it and felt that Yan Jin was also framing his own pawn, and the timing was so right, naturally it was not very easy for people to do it.
has the ability to even explore the details of the long history of his mansion, use his critically ill old father to play this game of chess, and also pull King Dun as a witness, for example, the Daqing Dynasty can do this absolutely only a handful, several of his brothers and the powerful Gu Changbai (Mokun) are among them.
"Bitter Meat Trick?" King Zhongwen was taken aback, "This-you mean Gu Changbai (Demon Kun)-"
"Isn't it?" King Zhonglian analyzed the suspicions, "This matter came out, because Gu Feng was injured, of course outsiders can't suspect him." β
"Then he still let Princess Chaoyun make trouble?" King Zhongwen didn't believe it, "You and I both know what kind of temperament the princess is, even if Gu Changbai (Mokun) wants to, she is afraid that she will not be able to do this kind of thing." β
King Zhonglian looked at his younger brother: "What if Gu Changbai (Mokun) hides it from her?"
That's a problem. King Zhongwen thought for a while and said, "In terms of fairness, Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) will not use such conspiracies and tricks. β
"That's where I'm not sure. King Zhonglian bowed slightly, "Then there are only the third and fourth children." β
"Borrowing a knife to kill people, and the fisherman profits?" King Zhongwen agreed, "It's like the fourth child!"
King Zhonglian sighed: "No matter who it is, we and the Liang Zi of the Gu family are on the bright side. β
King Chung Wen hesitated and asked, "What do you meanβ"
Looking at the snowflakes falling from the window, King Zhonglian smiled slightly: "Even if it is not used by you and me, it is not necessarily blatantly opposed." β
The Spring Festival is approaching, and the Gu family's New Year's gift to the Zhonglian Mansion is reduced by three percent compared with the usual one, which is already the meaning of tearing his face, and the Zhonglian King smiled when he heard Princess Guo mention it, but he didn't care about it on the surface.
Although Qin Siyue (Long Xi)'s mind is in the court, the subordinates of the Gu Mansion are not slacking off, especially the four housekeepers, lest the lot after the first month should be on their own, all of them compete to be the first to serve, and the expenditure is much less, and the errand is better than in previous years.
Feng Da saw it clearly, and said with a wry smile: "Our princess and grandmother are not better than others, she is going to suddenly attack us by surprise, there is no way at all, why do you want to catch the lot early and let the wind go early, and leave us two months to deal with it? β
Everyone Feng took a breath: "You mean the princess is staring at us now?"
"I expect that the princess is afraid that she will use the New Year's Festival to beat us, which, as you said, is to steal the furniture at this juncture or to do an errand, it is a big deal to die. Feng Da is still shrewd, and guessed Qin Siyue's (Long Xi's) thoughts, "It's better to be still than to be still, although we don't like it on weekdays, but in the end, it's the old lady's person, and Wu You is in front of it!"
Everyone Feng was a little relieved: "Yes." β
Wu You is not stupid, he is the only one of the four chief managers who has the deepest relationship with the second room, so he naturally has to go to great lengths to avoid "winning the lottery".
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) looked at Tiao Chen and was slightly surprised: "Why do you want to change it?"
Wu Youjia's smile: "Grandma, although the rules are strict, if you don't keep it even, there will be a lawless villain who takes advantage of the fire to rob and forge the two items of silver for the cards, and the minion's idea is to prevent trouble before it happens, and it is better to make up for it than to correct it as soon as possible." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) was interested: "You tell me in detail." β
Wu Youjia was very excited: "Grandma left a fingerprint in the treasury, for example, our wife wants to use things, must be told to the grandmother first, when the grandmother sends people to the warehouse, in addition to bringing the right cards, but also to write a list to press the handprint, the warehouse here to pick up the cards and then check the fingerprints, two times to take things to take the bill to reportββ"
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) said with a smile: "This method is really comprehensive, but my handprints can't be leaked." β
Wu Youjia was slightly disappointed: "It's the slave who didn't think it through." β
"But I understand what you mean, so we might as well be flexible. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) pondered and said, "Engrave a special private seal instead of my finger, by the way, the pair of cards also changed, just like the emperor transferred the military tiger talisman, now with wooden, later changed to bronze, split it in half, half of the housekeeper, half of the treasury, but where to receive things, the card is closed and the seal is correct to unlock." β
Wu Youjia's flattery: "It's still the master's thoughtfulness!"
"I've just put a thing or two on your ideas. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) instructed Chunlan, "I remember that Fujian has paid two catties of good tea, take two taels out and let your Aunt Wu go back and taste it." β
Wu Youjia couldn't help but be overjoyed: "How can this be afforded." β
"Bearable. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) boasted, "Your idea is to benefit the future of the century-old plan, which is worth more than thousands of gold." β
Wu Youjia's extreme humility: "The eldest grandmother is overrated, and the slave is just doing her duty." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) turned her head and instructed Dongmei: "I'll write a few words later, and then draw a picture, you personally take it to the Internal Affairs Office, ask them to carve and cast it according to the sample, and after you're done, you will stare at the mold with your own eyes, don't cause trouble." β
Wu You's family secretly praised: she is worthy of being the princess's grandmother, and there is no omission in her actions.
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) said at this time: "You go too, I will remember this credit, and I will reward it during the New Year." β
Sent away Wu You's house, Chunlan approached and said with a smile: "Master, this Wu You is really smart, and using this matter to show his heartfelt kindness can benefit from the filial piety on the side." β
"It doesn't matter what your mind is, if you have a good idea, you should be rewarded. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) immediately ordered to prepare a pen inkstone, personally wrote the word "Yayu" as a seal handwriting, it happened that Gu Mao followed Gu Kui to practice riding back, and taught him to write the "Rong Enhou Mansion" four words for casting cards, the four big girls have understood.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs got Qin Siyue (Long Xi) and did not dare to slack off, and the head of the company started work in front of Dongmei, and it took two hours to engrave the seal according to the table and cast twelve pairs of cards, and Dongmei gave a generous reward, and took it back to the Shenlong General's Mansion to replace the handover.
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) recast the pair of cards, but the first panic was Sister Qing, who was still raising a baby, and asked Hai'er nervously in private: "What do you mean by grandma?
Hai'er didn't care: "Of the four managers in the house, only Wu You is the second master's brother, and the princess is tidying up the housekeeping, how can he not be afraid? β
Sister Qing's focus is: "The words on the right card were written by the princess who taught Brother Mao?"
Hai'er said with relief: "You think about it in vain, when you have raised and given birth to a child as smart as Brother Mao, how can the old lady not plan for her grandson? β
Sister Qing sighed: "What you said is reasonable. β
For everyone in the Gu Mansion, Qin Siyue (Longxi)'s birthday is greater than the New Year's Festival celebrated by the whole world.
When the waiters in the East Palace came to give gifts, they really reported the good news to Mrs. Gu, saying that Dan Qi has now been reinstated as a concubine, the crown princess is graceful, and the Shenlong General's Mansion can send family members to visit after the year.
Gu Lao Taijun and the Huang family were naturally happy, and they were busy not mentioning the reward, and the house had already figured out the direction of the wind, and Qin Siyue (Long Xi) became more and more respectful.
There are Wu You as an example, the housekeepers have come up with a lot of ways to promote the good and eliminate the disadvantages, during the period did not take the second room as a raft, such as Gong Er suggested to cut people, Shan Daliang proposed to send people to inspect the field production every year to avoid Zhuangtou ghosts, Feng Da was unwilling to be unwilling, and also proposed a strategy for the future construction of the price of wood and stone, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) looked at their enthusiasm and really had no mind to pursue it, and made up his mind to act.
Seeing the root of the year, the frontier was eight hundred miles urgent, and the northwest rebelled against the Mongolian Sanyin Nuoqin King. The Sanyin Nuoqin Department was close to Gansu, and the government and the opposition were shocked, and the emperor urgently ordered the princes and the ministers of the cabinet to discuss politics in the Qing Palace.
The emperor first asked the household department: "How much money and grain is in the treasury?"
Hubu Shangshu was extremely embarrassed: "Your Majesty, there are still aftermaths of the Liaodong rebellion, and the treasury has been saving up money and grain since last year. β
The emperor sighed: "Eventful! I am diligent and cautious for the country, and I prefer the house to leak in the heavy rain." β
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) groaned for a while and then went out of class: "Your Majesty, the Sanyin Nuoqin Department is close to the west, and I am afraid that the army will be instigated by the Moxi Tianzhun Department for no reason, if our army can win, the Tianzhun Department will definitely take the opportunity to advance eastward to encroach on the Sanyin Nuoqin Department; β
"This is what worries me the most. The Emperor asked, "What do you have in mind?"
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) already had an idea: "Your Majesty, this campaign must be quickly resolved, the main general can lead 50,000 iron armor to face it head-on, and then send the general 10,000 cavalry to attack the Tianzhun Department to make him worry about not moving, and when the Sanyin Nuoqin Department is defeated, he can naturally settle down the territory a little, recover his vitality the next day, and then plan for the future." β
The emperor's heart was a little relieved: "Although the Sanyin Nuoqin Department does not have the prestige of the Northern Barbarians in the past, after all, it hinders the western frontier, and it seems that you, the 'Shenlong General', have to work hard!"
"The Minister's Decree" Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) asked, "The candidate for the Attack on Heaven still needs His Majesty's holy judgment." β
"Proposed edict!" the emperor announced, "Gu Changbai (Mokun), the protector of the country, led the northwest to recruit envoys, supplemented by the sixth battalion, and the household department gave grain and grass to carve the day to send troops. β
This is the meaning of asking Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) to act cheaply, Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) leaned over and thanked him: "Long live, long live, long live!"
When Qin Siyue (Long Xi) heard this, she sighed with emotion: "Current affairs are like this!
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) hugged his wife and said softly: "A little three-tone Nuoqin club, I don't care about it yet, you don't have to worry." β
"Zhang Yanghao once said, 'Xing, the people suffer, death, the people suffer. I'll change my words today. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) hugged her husband, "'Victory, handsome and fearful; ββ
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) was slightly surprised: "You mean that you are afraid that I will be a master of high merit?"
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) smiled bitterly: "Brother Changbai, you are not yet thirty years old, you are already a second-class prince, this time you came back triumphantly to enter the first class, next time! What about next time? There is no prince with a different surname in the Daqing Dynasty!"
"So you're worried about this. Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) teased, "Twenty years ago, you asserted that I, a prodigy, would protect the true dragon from suspicion, but you forgot that the current majesty is the heir of the son-in-law. β
"Brother Changbai, you and I have reached our current status, and the honor and favor have long been incomprehensible, I don't suspect family affection, but I can't believe in the magic of that dragon chair. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) expressed the hidden worries in her heart, "The emperor is my uncle, he has the compassion to love the juniors, and we also have respect for the elders, what about the future? You and I are as casual with Yonglin as we are now, if there is a villain instigated, can you still be a monarch and minister who knows each other all your life? Emperor Wu of Han is not mediocre at all, he destroyed his own three clans!"
"I understand what you're saying. Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) pulled his wife to sit on the bed, "But you also said it, current affairs are like this, and I can't rest assured if I don't go in person." β
"Brother Changbai, I only advise you one sentence. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) looked earnest, "I have been in the top position for a long time, don't be reluctant to do it on that day, for the sake of the family, we must be able to afford to put it down." ββ
"Okay" Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) nodded, "I promise you." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) is not afraid of fighting, in terms of Gu Changbai's identity and ability, danger never comes from the outside, what she is worried about is that the disaster will break the wall.
Princess Chaoyun knew the army, and Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) simply used this to distract his wife: "I want to send Ming Hao to lead an army to attack and disturb the Tianzhun Department, what do you think?"
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) naturally understood her husband's intentions: "The penitent husband is looking for a marquis, you often think about Sister Kui'er and the old lady." β
Gu Changbai (Mokun) wants to lead the army to the expedition, and there must be relatives and friends to practice, the current head of the household is King Zhongyong and the fourth son of the emperor Yongdong, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) has no feeling for King Zhongyong, and directly smashes Yongdong with a silver ticket: "People borrow silver from the treasury, I lend silver to you, just one, the army of the Western Expedition cannot be cold and starving, and the treasury will be rich and then pay me back, without interest." β
Yongdong's jaw dropped: "Five million taels, my sister, where did you get so much money?"
"Nearly half of the private rooms" Qin Siyue (Long Xi) glared, "Don't talk nonsense, when others ask, you will say that it was posted by the emperor's uncle, and you are not allowed to teach me to have the reputation of raising the army with private wealth on my back." β
"Understood, I'll give you a guarantee. Yongdong gave a thumbs up, "Strange Dao Emperor Ancestor said that you are the best, I am convinced." β
"Fourth brother, you are steady, I don't have anything to worry about, just a truthful word, the serious princess is still a foreign relative, let alone me?
"Sister-" Yongdong's eyes widened, "What are you talking about?"
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) instructed, "It's not that I'm alarmist, what I mean by saying this is to ask you to suppress your reputation, don't let the Gu family move off the cliff."
Yongdong Zhengse agreed: "My brother understands." β
After listening to his son's secret report, the emperor looked at Yonglin: "The key to being a king is to know people, and Changbai is afraid, but 'the king does not know the minister, and the minister does not know the king'." β
Yonglin bowed down and agreed: "Erchen will be trained." β
Facts have proved that Qin Siyue (Longxi) is not unfounded.
Just after the Festival of Lights, the imperial history table, the report commander and the same knowledge of Minghao's ill-intentioned rebellion.
The emperor ordered it to be played in detail.
The imperial history adduces evidence, Ming Hao was the grandson of Zhu Cijiong, the third prince of Emperor Chongzhen of the former Ming Dynasty, and met Gu Changbai (Mokun), the marquis of Zhenyuan, when hunting in the West Mountain, he was appreciated, and was recruited as a captain of the military academy during the Northern Expedition.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Northern Barbarian Tartars captured Beijing, almost slaughtered the descendants of Ming Sizong, and the local vassal kings were either killed by the righteous army or forcibly suppressed by the royal division, not to mention Emperor Chongzhen, afraid that even Emperor Jiajing had become extinct, and now he caught such a big fish, which really shocked the government and the opposition.
King Lian came out of the class: "Your Majesty, since the evidence is conclusive, I would rather believe it than believe it." β
