Chapter 23: The Zhao Family's Grandson

Mr. Yin has entered a busy mode of circling around and day and night during this time, one of the major events is the murder of the Gu family, the trouble is not Gu Huaying, in fact, this gentleman with a student status, has a vicious heart but no strong "faith", when he was arrested, under Zhang Chong's accusation, he panicked at all, and shouted two sentences of injustice, but was frightened by the torture rod in the hands of the servant, and confessed to the crime with a white face.

This person is Shi Liangxing's party servant, how to try this case with conclusive evidence, and whether there will be variables are all issues that Mr. Yin must pay attention to-who let the old man Zhizhou not use it at all, and until now he is still "sick in bed" and "recuperating"? Not to mention the battle of wits and courage with the subordinate officials, even the impeachment of Rongguo Gong Zheng Qiu made him scratch his scalp for a few days and still write unsatisfactory and pale, and in the end he could only let Mr. Yin ghostwrite.

But even if Mr. Yin was so busy that he didn't even see his wife's face for a few days, when he returned to the study from the yatang that day, he saw at a glance the young master Lanting, who was sitting next to the mullioned half-window, leisurely sipping tea, and holding a book in his hand, he was still so surprised that he tripped over the threshold, and just stood firmly, he rubbed his eyes, rubbed his eyes and seemed to be still not confident, approached quickly, reached out to pinch Zhao Lanting's arm, raised his hand again, opened his fingers, and stretched out his face to the face.

Zhao Lanting finally dodged Mr. Yin's "tongs" with his head sideways, lifted the book and hit him on the arm, as if he was smiling: "Brother Amaranth, I haven't seen you for a long time, so you don't need to move your hands and feet, right?" ”

Amaranth is not Brother Yin Ren's word, it is his own name, taking the quinoa amaranth intestine, the meaning of ice and jade, which is very recognized by Master Zhao, but was made fun of by Uncle Zhao as self-esteem, and he used it as a title in return, all with some ridicule.

Yin Jiyu didn't care now, he sat down on the rose chair at the end of the bookcase, still staring at two eyeballs: "Why did Uncle come to Fenyang?" ”

Zhao Lanting was anti-guest, and took advantage of Yin Jiyu's "Xiaojiang Group" to pour out a cup to him: "The master wrote a letter and asked me to go to Fenzhou to serve the sick, of course I don't dare to delay, as for letting Brother Ren give up his eyeballs and throw them on the ground?" ”

"Don't dare?" Yin Jiyu raised half of his eyebrows, obviously disdainful of these two words: "If the uncle really wants to play tricks with the master, he will definitely make the master unable to say a single word and be ashamed that he is making trouble unreasonably, could it be ...... Uncle didn't receive the letter sent by me? I didn't know that the lord had another intention to destroy you to serve the sick. ”

"Brother Ren's whistle-blowing letter was delivered to me immediately after the letter from home."

"Then the uncle is so calculated by the lord and the lady?" Yin Jiyu pursed his lips and shook his head, in his cognition, Uncle Zhao would not be so obedient.

"A humble marriage, since you should obey the orders of your parents, how can it be the calculation of the lord and lady?"

Regarding this uncle's seriousness, Yin Jiyu could only pay a smile: "What kind of temperament is the uncle, don't talk about any etiquette in front of Yin, I'm afraid that if it's not in Beiping, I can't stand the repeated forced marriage of the Duke of Jin, right?" ”

"Jin Guogong is indeed very enthusiastic about me." Zhao Lanting admitted this.

"I don't understand, the eldest granddaughter of the Duke of Jin, that Miss Dong is really hot, since Jilu, the threshold of the Duke of Jin is about to be stepped on by the matchmaker's feet, the Duke of Jin just sees the uncle, even if there is no enthusiasm of the old lady, the Duke of Jin is also bent on recruiting the uncle as his grandson-in-law, why does the uncle not appreciate it, and would rather be calculated by the lady and marry a woman whose family is far inferior to Miss Dong?" Yin Jiyu was indeed puzzled, and his two eyebrows turned into dead knots: "It is true that whether it is the grandson, or the Zheng, Wan and other families, they all think that the marriage with the Jin State Mansion will have a stable storage position and a future for the reserve, and the old lady is so enthusiastic about this marriage, and it also means this." ”

But Yin Jiyu obviously disdained the measurement of these people, and his face was full of disdain: "It's just a stupid woman's first-class bad opinion, who is the Duke of Jin?" He has always known how to harm the whole body, even if he has established the function of covering the world, he can not be arrogant, how can he be involved in the seizure of the storage position because of the marriage of a granddaughter? The emperor is so important to the Duke of Jin, and he understands the position of the Duke of Jin, and he has always been loyal to the king, and has never had personal schemes, even if the uncle marries the lady of the Duke of Jin, the emperor will not think that the Zhao family has the idea of supporting it. ”

This is Yin Jiyu's opinion, he doesn't think that Zhao Lanting will damage his career if he becomes the grandson-in-law of the Duke of Jin.

"But what if I have the idea of standing up?" Zhao Lanting took a sip of tea, as if he had just said this, and there was no shocking power.

Seeing that Yin Jiyu was stunned for a moment, he smiled slightly: "If I move the idea of supporting the throne, then in the emperor's opinion, marrying the Jin State Mansion will become ill-intentioned, then the one who is supported by me will naturally cause the scruples of the king, but if I can abide by the duty of a courtier, I don't need to climb up the power of the alliance, even if I choose a position, it is not enough to touch the emperor's disgust." In the current situation, whether the grandson has the quality of a wise monarch and whether he has the ability to stabilize the society, the emperor and the ministers are actually uncertain. The position of the grandson has never been stable, and the princes have all had a chance to turn around. ”

"Stand!" Yin Jiyu took a deep breath: "What the uncle said is supportive!" Of course, the uncle also knows that the Zhao family is now, even if it is not involved in support, it will be able to be prosperous and rich in the future, but if it is involved, it will be either success or failure! But he soon realized: "Could it be that before Gu Lao died, the reason why he had these arrangements was because he moved to support him?" ”

Zhao Lanting bowed his head: "Glory and wealth are nothing more than a passing cloud, what my grandfather is worried about is that after the rule of Hongfu, it will not become an enlightened and prosperous era, but a disaster." ”

His fingers stroked the smooth billet wall of the white porcelain tea bowl, and raised his eyes to look at Yin Jiyu: "Jin Guogong has no intention of getting involved in the storage dispute, and he is not the same person as me, so why should I involve Dong Gong and live up to Dong Gong's appreciation." ”

Yin Jiyu finally sighed, and no longer used "uncle" to be called: "Don't obey Gu Lao's wishes, those who abandon not only volunteered since childhood, but even marriage, I am afraid that they will have to compromise and sacrifice, Yin's sigh is sad, if you don't obey the orders of your parents, in case you don't agree with the woman, won't you regret it for the rest of your life." ”

Zhao Lanting disagreed: "Originally, I never wanted to be happy with each other, and who said that there was no confidant woman around him, it would definitely cause regrets." ”

"Could it be that the wish of the Emperor is to be accompanied by a man who knows his heart?" Yin Jiyu glared in horror: "This, this, this...... Uncle won't feel like he's ......"

"You're thinking too much." Uncle Zhao coldly glanced at Mr. Yin, who was pretending to be amorous.

Yin Jiyu laughed and said: "It's not easy to catch this slip of the tongue of yours, uncle, but aren't you curious about what kind of character that big girl Gu is?" ”

"Madame will never mess with the mandarin duck spectrum, presumably although the eldest girl Gu is not from a high-ranking family, she is always good."

"It's pretty good." Yin Jiyu suddenly danced with his eyebrows: "Because of two things, I have witnessed Miss Gu's face, which is indeed rare and beautiful, and even more rare is that although Miss Gu is also from the world, the ancestor reads the book of sages and takes the economic path, but Miss Gu does not have the twisting and pinching behavior of a woman from a family, although she has a peerless appearance, she also has a bit of a man's heroic spirit, and she is quite decisive." ”

Let's first talk about the paragraph of "selling myself to bury my mother": "It seems that it is a move of righteous indignation because of the filial piety of the martyrs, Yin took a closer look, and realized that before Miss Gu made this trouble, she had actually made arrangements a long time ago, such as the village market near the left of Guhuai, whether it was a village or a squire, as early as slandering the Gu family's family and bullying the clansmen, if there was no lord to come forward, these people would certainly not come forward and the Gu family theory for the widows and orphans who have nothing to do with them, but as long as the old man is moved to pursue the Gu family, these people will inevitably fall into the ground. Miss Gu clearly knows how to use public opinion to create momentum and cause pressure on the Zong family. A weak woman, in a desperate situation, dared to calculate the clan family and seek justice for her deceased mother, which is inferior to many ladies. ”

"But no matter how Miss Gu plans, she can't expect anything." Zhao Lanting shook his head and said: "That is the temperament of this master of our family, and it is to avoid the Zheng family of the Rongguo Mansion. ”

Yin Jiyu said with a smile: "Indeed, if it weren't for Yin's insistence, the master would indeed not interfere, and Miss Gu's plan would have failed. ”

He also told in detail about the incident that exposed Gu Huaying's murder and forced Gu Changrong to give up the patriarch.

Yin Jiyu praised: "Confronting the patriarch of a clan, it is an ordinary man, and there is no such boldness, but Miss Gu dares to sue the clan elder just by clues, Yin often combs this incident, and is surprised, uncle thinks, if all the judgments are not true, Gu Huaying did not instruct Zhang Chong to kill people, or Liu and Zhang Chong were not frightened by a few so-called proverbs and panicked, and did the stupid thing of digging up the corpse at night, Gu Changxing was busy in vain, Gu Changrong was unscathed, and Gu Changxing's prestige among the clan elders was damaged, It would be difficult to plot for the position of patriarch again, would I be dissatisfied with Miss Gu, Miss Gu was so decisive, she could say that she could fight against the water, this courage was really a woman who didn't let her eyebrows. ”

He also said: "And Miss Gu only pointed the finger at Gu Huaying, but let go of the old lady Gu who not only knew but did not report it and was also an accomplice, she should be familiar with the law and understand that Gu Huaying is unlikely to confess to her grandmother, even if she confesses, Mrs. Gu is the eldest of the deceased, and she can even be exempted from punishment if she targets her grandmother, and if she targets her grandmother, Mrs. Gu will simply take the blame herself, and choose her grandson, Gu Huaying will be able to escape the punishment." ”

"You're missing a little." Zhao Lanting also frowned slightly: "Just based on clues, even if Zhang Chong is arrested, how can Miss Gu conclude that the mastermind must be Gu Huaying and not Mrs. Gu, you must know that this matter, if it really has nothing to do with Gu Huaying, even if Mrs. Gu is flustered because of the exposure of the crime, she will definitely defend Gu Huaying." ”

Yin Jiyu was stunned again, and didn't roll his eyes for a long time.
