Because of the winter clothes, he directly ruined Nalan Ye's raid plan, and he felt that there must be a reason for it, and asked the court to give an explanation to his soldiers. Soon, an eight-hundred-mile urgent military intelligence was sent and arrived in the capital quickly.

When the news came out, the government and the opposition were shaken.

The king of Chu led the army to the north to avenge his revenge, and it was the time of bloody fighting, but he didn't expect that someone would take the opportunity to get rich, and even the winter clothes of the soldiers had to be faked, not to mention that they were greedy for more disaster victims' pensions and hard-earned money. The ministers played and demanded that Emperor Nangong Qing immediately investigate the matter and severely punish him!

When the news reached the Marquis of Weiyang's mansion, the Yang and Sun clans were almost stupefied. It is about the soldiers at the front, and it also ruined the plan of the king of Chu to kill the enemy, and when this matter is investigated, they are afraid that they will shed their skin if they don't die. Everyone knows the ruthlessness of Nalan Night, the king of Chu, and the importance that His Majesty attaches to this northern expedition, so they can't imagine that there is a problem with the winter clothes they purchased, which is absolutely to blame.

In the bedroom, Yang was dumbfounded, trembling all over, and Sun pointed at her and scolded: "You stupid woman, who told you to be greedy for that bit of silver?" You don't earn good money, you want to find someone to buy a batch of fakes, I told you that cheap is cheap, but this is military supplies after all, and if you fake it, you will be killed......"

After a long period of scolding, Yang couldn't raise his head, but he also complained in his heart.

If it weren't for her mother-in-law's idea to buy another batch of cheap goods in the market to exchange for her own winter clothes and make a difference in price, how could she be unlucky enough to encounter such a thing? Now that something happens, her mother-in-law blames her and shirks her responsibility, is it really necessary to let her take responsibility as a woman and let the emperor cut off his head?

Counting, the emperor is still her son-in-law, how can a son-in-law cut off his mother-in-law's head?

scolded in his heart, but Yang didn't dare to say anything, Sun was tired after scolding for a long time, and gasped: "What about Boss Liu who sold you the goods, you can't let him go, no wonder he hasn't sold these winter clothes for a few years, and his feelings are fakes made of reed flowers, it's really black-hearted!" ”

"Mother-in-law, I've already sent someone to look for it, Boss Liu even transferred the store, and the whole family ran away, where can I find him now?" If it weren't for the fact that the culprit could not be found, would the Yang family be so afraid? If she can push that Boss Liu out to confess, she will beg Su Yi to blow some pillow wind in front of His Majesty, thinking that His Majesty will not embarrass them much for the sake of his daughter and unborn grandson.

It's a big deal that Wei Yanghou didn't make money this time, and handed over the 100,000 taels of silver to redeem his merits.

As soon as he heard that Boss Liu had run away, he could only bear all the responsibility for the Weiyang Hou Mansion, and even the Sun family had no choice, he sat on the soft collapse, and the whole person was stupid.

For a long time, Yang thought of his daughter, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty will definitely find out about us this time, I'm afraid that someone will take us to investigate soon." No, you can't just be taken away, if it weren't for Princess Chu talking about letting us do this, our Weiyang Marquis Mansion might have this unfortunate thing? ”

"I thought I could earn a few dollars after working hard for a while, but I didn't expect that now I didn't earn the money, and my life would be lost!" Sun was angry and repentant, poked Yang's head and scolded: "It's all your fault, now dozens of people in our Weiyang Marquis Mansion are all going to be killed by you!" Why don't you go into the palace and beg Ah Yi, let her explain it to Your Majesty, and think of a way! ”

Furious and hateful, Yang finally raised his voice and shouted in a sharp voice: "Mother-in-law, what do you blame me for, if it weren't for Princess Chu's idea, my daughter-in-law wouldn't be so unlucky, if you want to blame, you have to blame Princess Chu, she dragged us into the water!" ”

"Okay, you can go to the princess of Chu to reason, and ask her to tell the king of Chu not to pursue this matter, and Your Majesty will not be angry......"

Originally, it was angry talk, but when Sun said this, he reacted with Yang and glanced at each other: "Yes, the root of this matter lies in Nalan Ye, the king of Chu." If it weren't for him asking the guilt, His Majesty wouldn't have known about this at all, but it was just a matter of a few winter clothes, and it wasn't murder and arson, so he could be so aggressive? ”

The two of them immediately calmed down, wanting to bite Luo Qingluan on this matter.

Just as the two were discussing, the next person happened to come to report: Princess Chu came to ask them about winter clothes.

The Yang family and the Sun family glanced at each other, and immediately said, "Hurry up and invite Princess Chu in!" ”

In a few words, the two of them have already agreed on their rhetoric, since Luo Qingluan is here, they are afraid that the investigation is in the second place, and it is true that Xingshi asks for the guilt. Since this is the case, then they must stabilize Luo Qingluan first, and after she is relieved, they will make a decision, and they must not be frightened by Luo Qingluan.

Luo Qingluan wore a wide embroidered hibiscus slanted jacket, and also wrapped a fox fur scarf, with a circle of white fur, reflecting her ruddy cheeks as delicate as flowers, becoming more and more pretty. Holding the copper passionflower wrapped around the stove, she glanced at the Yang family lightly before she spoke: "Mrs. Su must know why I came here today, right?" ”

Yang said cautiously: "But what about the military quartermaster? ”

Luo Qingluan nodded: "It turns out that Mrs. Su really knows." ”

"How can I not know, this matter is a big trouble, and now that the whole capital knows about it, where can I hide it?"

Yang immediately poured bitter water: "Princess Chu, this really doesn't matter about us, you also know, we have more than 100 women in Zhuangzi, weaving and making clothes before dawn, and they have been busy for two months, or what kind of 'assembly line' method did you teach Princess Chu, otherwise where would we get so many winter clothes!" It is absolutely impossible to cheat, how can we have the audacity? ”

Sun also immediately cried and shouted: "That's it, Princess Chu, now that this matter has happened, Your Majesty will definitely find out about us when you investigate, our Weiyang Marquis Mansion is all women, where do you understand this?" It's not that what they say, how we recognize it, isn't this a trap for us? It's a miserable life......"

Seeing the two women crying with tears and snot, Luo Qingluan was unmoved.

If it weren't for the fact that this matter was very important and implicated, she was now more than three months pregnant, how could she go on a trip to take care of such a nosy thing in person? Although she brought up the matter at the beginning, it was also to help Su Yi's mother get rid of the control of the eldest princess. But I didn't expect things to develop like this, I have to say that greedy people can destroy themselves at any time.

"Mrs. Su, since this batch of winter clothes was made by your Weiyang Marquis Mansion, no matter what, Your Majesty will definitely send someone to investigate. But you can also rest assured, as long as Mrs. Su verifies that it is correct when she goes to the military department to deliver the goods, then no one can wronged you. But if Mrs. Su has any small actions in private, hiding what I don't know, and something happens at the time, then only you will bear it. ”

Yang Shi was startled, and said with a blank face: "Princess Chu, you have to help us!" Let me assure you, there is absolutely no problem with this batch of winter clothes we made, and even if there is a problem, it must be someone who has done something to the winter clothes and wants to frame our Weiyang Hou Mansion. You know, since the death of my father-in-law, the situation of our Hou Mansion has been much worse than before, if it weren't for Ah Yi's face to support, I'm afraid that I would have fallen down a long time ago. ”

Sun also looked anxious, let out his old face, grabbed Luo Qingluan's hand and cried: "Princess Chu, you have to pity us." If you hadn't brought this up, we wouldn't have come to this point, you ...... Princess Chu, you can't sit idly by......"

Saying that, she was about to kneel, where could Luo Qingluan let the Sun family, who was over fifty years old, kneel down for her? She immediately stopped: "Old lady, no! ”

"If you don't help us, I'll ...... I can't get down on your knees with this old bone...... Woowoo woo ......"

was very helpless by this way of playing scoundrels, Luo Qingluan couldn't do it, if she was younger, she wouldn't care if the other party knelt or not, but the person in front of her was Su Yi's grandmother, how could she bear it?

can only help the Sun family, Luo Qingluan said: "Okay, okay, old lady, you get up first, let's talk slowly." ”

Wiping his tears, Sun stood up pitifully, sat down and continued to cry, as if he really had a great grievance.

Luo Qingluan didn't know much either, it stands to reason that she handed over this cost-saving method of making winter clothes to the Yang family, and the other party only spent a few dollars to earn such a large sum, so she shouldn't cheat on winter clothes, otherwise she would be too greedy. But now there is indeed an accident with the winter coat, and I don't know the reason until I investigate it.

After thinking about it, Luo Qingluan said: "Since this is the case, then I think it is better to enter the palace as soon as possible and explain it directly to Your Majesty, and let Your Majesty find someone to investigate." Otherwise, someone will find it on the head, and then explain, so I am afraid that it will become more and more black. Mrs. Su, old lady, don't worry, you know that the thing is indeed not done by you, then no one can be wronged on your head! ”

Sun nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, and Ah Yi is here, I will definitely be able to explain it to Your Majesty." Princess Chu, there is one more thing, can you ...... Could you please also send a letter to Lord Chu and explain it? As long as the King of Chu doesn't pursue it, His Majesty won't be so angry, and it will be resolved when the time comes......"

Luo Qingluan directly interrupted her: "I'm sorry, old lady, although Nalan Ye is the marshal of this Northern Expedition, there is a problem with military supplies, even if he can't suppress it alone, he must give an explanation to the victims." But as long as the matter has nothing to do with you, you don't have to worry, Your Majesty will definitely not wronged people. ”

"That ......"

The Yang family was helpless, and she hated Luo Qingluan even more in her heart, and she wanted to stay out of the matter if something happened and let them Weiyang Houfu take responsibility, she Luo Qingluan took the silver by herself, how could there be such a cheap thing?

At that moment, the Yang family pretended to obey and said that he would enter the palace immediately to explain to His Majesty, and then send someone to the Chu Palace's mansion to tell her when there was news. After Luo Qingluan left, the Yang family immediately entered the palace, but did not immediately go to see Nangong Qing, but first went to the harem to ask for her daughter Su Yi.

Hearing that her mother was coming, Su Yi also guessed that she was afraid that it was just for the sake of military supplies, so she hurriedly let the Yang family in.

After retiring the palace maid and eunuch, Su Yi asked carefully: "Mother, what is going on?" You don't know, Your Majesty has made a lot of fire in the court, saying that this matter must be thoroughly investigated, this matter, could it really be the mother's doing? ”
