Chapter 405: Sooner or Later
Later, Gan Peilin was accounting the accounts in the house, and Jiang Yu walked into her study with a wind.
The moment the door opened, the wind mixed with medicinal gas poured in, she raised her head, looked at Jiang Yu with an expressionless face, put down the brush in her hand, and slowly got up and saluted: "The husband is here." ”
Jiang Yu frowned and walked in, and Lu Yao closed the door. "It's hard for you to settle the accounts."
Is this accountability or concern? Gan Peilin was a little puzzled for a while, but just looked at him calmly.
"Xindi...... Ascend the throne tomorrow. Jiang Yu frowned: "The queen detained Da Sima in the prison. ”
"What did you say?" Gan Peilin's heart was shocked: "The queen detained my father in the prison? ”
Jiang Yu nodded slightly: "The person has already been sent to the heavenly prison." ”
"Why? Just because King Huiqing was impeached? Gan Peilin couldn't help but be angry.
"You're well-informed." Jiang Yu stared blankly and looked at Gan Peilin with heavy eyes.
"Gan Jilu and Mo Chuxue have been here." Gan Peilin guessed that Jiang Yu should know. Whoever enters the house every day, Lu Yao's people will definitely tell him.
Jiang Yu didn't say a word, walked over and picked up the account book in front of her.
"As I said earlier, just ignore these things." Jiang Yu didn't care about this amount.
"Earlier, I didn't like to worry about the short money of these parents." Gan Peilin raised his eyebrows slightly, and his tone was a little bad: "But I dreamed of my grandmother that night, she exchanged osmanthus cake for my trust, but she suddenly pushed me down the deep well...... One thing inspired me to think. ”
"What?" Jiang Yu was puzzled and put down the account book.
"Over the years, we have been plagued by all kinds of wars, and the treasury has long been empty." Gan Peilin said a little unbearably: "Even the soldiers, soldiers, horses, and weapons are a great loss. In the DPRK, there was no silver for a long time, and even the pension money could not be taken out, and the treasury was extremely empty. Even we are still like this, where did the Chen Kingdom, which is far away in the western frontier, come from so strong to expand the army and build camps to deal with us? ”
"You doubt Zhen?" Jiang Yu originally wanted to "seek justice" for Zhen, after all, she was so angry in this courtyard that she was unstable.
But hearing Gan Peilin say this, he couldn't help but be a little worried.
"If you don't have doubts, you have to speak with evidence." Gan Peilin sighed softly again: "The reason why my grandmother supported Mo Yanqing as her wife was because Mo Yanqing took the silver from Gan Mansion and gave her half of it, so that she could support the outer room." There's a cottage in her outer room. That's a huge debt. Even Ganfu, which is not considered a rich party, can do it. What's more, you're the prime minister of a rich country. ”
"And what did you find?" Jiang Yu asked.
"It's obviously the second aunt's wife and the third aunt's wife Zhang Luocai's purchase. But after we left, Princess Zhen purchased supplies in her room thirteen times, as well as generous gifts for her mother's family, brothers, and relatives. In a short period of time, so much silver was spent. Gan Peilin turned one of the pages and circled it with vermilion ink. I don't know about warfare, but I'd like to ask, how many weapons can I buy, how many horses can I buy with such a large expense? ”
Sure enough, Jiang Yu's face instantly became unsightly.
"To tell you the truth, during the days when we were away, my treasury was emptied by Princess Zhen. Even the ornaments you gave me in the past have been taken. There was nothing else in the whole storeroom except a few old satins. And these treasures have not yet been included in this expenditure. Gan Peilin raised his chin slightly: "Isn't her trick the same as my grandmother's back then?" ”
Even the ornaments he bought for her were taken away by Zhen, Jiang Yu suddenly turned blue with anger, turned around and left.
"Husband and wife, slowly." Gan Peilin stopped Jiang Yu: "She just had fetal gas, it's not appropriate to say this at this time." ”
Jiang Yu didn't say anything, obviously this reason was not enough to make him angry.
"I didn't give her face today, and I taught her maid a lesson." Gan Peilin was a little reluctant: "I could have endured it and said it was not too late, but my temper was not good, so I couldn't hold back." But no matter how wrong she is, it is also her fault, the child is innocent. You better let Qian Yun come over and give her a good baby. ”
Jiang Yu's face was still not good: "Don't you think you're very contradictory?" ”
"......" Gan Peilin was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "It seems to be so." While exposing her shortcomings, he also stops you from holding you accountable. It seems that I am pretending to be generous and tolerant, wanting a good reputation for virtue, and not allowing her to suppress me......"
Hanging his head with a smile, Gan Peilin said: "I really don't care about her little tricks to compete for favor." But I have to make you worry-free. The queen has already made a move on Gan's house. At the beginning, the emperor tried to take back his father's military power several times but failed, but as soon as the queen took power, she directly imprisoned her father in the prison, and her skills were smarter and more vicious than the emperor. At this time, if the house is still not peaceful, I am really derelict in my duty. It is said that I have to offend Zhen in exchange for the situation I want. ”
Jiang Yu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
This woman is really too elusive. She can be careful to laugh and flatter, or she can be dismissive. She can deceive him for revenge, but she can do whatever it takes to get him.
"My opinion is that the silver should not pass through the hands of Princess Zhen. Of course, she doesn't have to be disadvantaged if she needs anything. Gan Peilin said with deep eyes: "In particular, you can't let the things that pass through her hands become evidence of your collaboration with the enemy in the future." What the queen needs is a chance to bring you down. And you, you have to be invulnerable. ”
"Hmm." Jiang Yu snorted, which was considered to be in agreement.
"As for Princess Zhen's side, I hope she can give birth to the child smoothly." Gan Peilin still said sincerely: "Qian Yun's medical skills are indeed good, and he is a person you can trust." With him taking care of you, it can also show your concern for Princess Zhen. That's a good thing. ”
"Hmm." Jiang Yu whispered again.
"During these days, the sister of the Ao family seems to have suffered a lot of grievances, if I remember correctly, it will be her birthday in a few days. You might as well accompany her back to Ao's house to visit her parents. Gan Peilin's eyes fell on the account book, and he didn't look at Jiang Yu's expression for a while.
Jiang Yu was a little unhappy in her heart, she always remembered other people's things, but she didn't say anything for herself.
Knowing that his heart knot has not been untied, he doesn't say that he will hide on him and spend some time like before.
His silence attracted Gan Peilin's attention, she raised her head, met his dissatisfied eyes, and the smile on the corner of her lips was a little embarrassed.
"I almost forgot, it's so late, you haven't had dinner yet, have you? I'll let Rulan prepare. ”
Jiang Yu's face softened slightly: "Hmm." ”
Gan Peilin gave an order, and Liulan hurried to prepare, this kung fu, the swallow went and returned, and walked in quickly.
"Husband...... Master. "Yanzi didn't expect Jiang Yu to be here, and he didn't see Lu Yao outside the door, just as he was about to do something, he saw Jiang Yu sitting there with a calm face." The master came just in time, and dinner was almost over. ”
"Then you go and help Rulan." Gan Peilin smiled gently.
"Yes." The swallow immediately retreated.
Both of them breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
Xu Baisen's matter, Gan Peilin wants to solve it by himself. Including Ao Min's matter, she also wants to solve it by herself.
Jiang Yu was already very busy, and she didn't want to trouble him.
"What are your plans for your father?" Jiang Yu asked.
"The bell must be tied to the bell." Gan Peilin thought for a moment and said, "The queen's target is not just my father, it should be me. ”
"You want to get it to your door?" Jiang Yu said coldly.
"Of course not." Gan Peilin said calmly: "She did these things to force me into her trap. I just want to be the fish that won't bite, and she'll be fine. ”
A hint of approval flashed in Jiang Yu's eyes.
Few people can be so calm, and she is still a slender little woman. He thought deeply that the reason why she was so attracted to him might be because she was different and unexpected.
"Master......" Across the door, Lu Yao's voice was a little embarrassed.
"Come in." Jiang Yu cleaned up his face and looked at him calmly.
"Princess Zhen is a little unhappy over there, and I want to invite you over." Lu Yao thought that this was already a very shy statement.
In fact, Princess Zhen's courtyard almost turned upside down.
One moment cursing Madame, one moment complaining that the master mistreated their mother and son, one moment saying that the people sent by Madame were all meticulous, and another saying that someone wanted to harm her child. That lively, he led the guards in, but he couldn't control the situation.
"You ask Qian Yun to go over and give her a baby." Jiang Yu said unhappily: "Say I'm busy." ”
"Yes." After Lu Yao pushed out the door, he quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. This princess is really extraordinary. It can break the sky.
He really would rather follow his master into battle to kill the enemy than go to the courtyard to deal with such a thing.
"Why don't you go and see ......" Before Princess Zhen could say the three words, Gan Peilin was glared at by Jiang Yu.
"I'm also afraid that she will be pregnant and think too much." Gan Peilin smiled a little embarrassed.
"I'm hungry." Jiang Yu said unhappily: "What about dinner?" ”
Liulan happened to come in and saluted: "If you go back to Xiangye, dinner is ready." Please come to dinner with your wife. ”
Jiang Yu snorted and turned to go out.
Gan Peilin followed him closely.
Fang Yanzi came in, but he hadn't said anything yet, and he didn't know if he had found Ao Min at this time and found out the news about Xu Baisen.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Baisen has been missing for so long, and his grandfather, grandmother, and uncle don't know how to be in a hurry. Thinking of this, Gan Peilin couldn't help but wander. Jiang Yu stopped and didn't enter the dining hall, turned around and looked at the people following behind him, as if his soul was gone.
He deliberately stopped and stared at her motionlessly.
Gan Peilin didn't disappoint Jiang Yu, she crashed directly into Jiang Yu's arms, and then came back to her senses in embarrassment.
"What the hell are you thinking?" Jiang Yu hugged her waist with one hand and hung down with the other, obviously not as close as before.
Gan Peilin took a step back in embarrassment, lowered his eyebrows and said, "I'm thinking...... Nothing ......."
"Let's eat." Jiang Yu didn't take her seriously, turned around and entered the dining hall.
However, Liulan and Yanzi glanced at each other, a little happy.
After all, Jiang Yu didn't go to accompany Princess Zhen and stayed here. They all thought that it would be a matter of time before Jiang Yu and Gan Peilin reconciled.
