Chapter 60 Books of Accounts
Aunt Lin suppressed the excitement in her heart and lowered her head gently, "Madame is sick, isn't there still a young lady?" The concubine knows little, if the eldest lady has any send, the concubine should do her best. ”
"Lan'er is getting older and older year by year, and this is also the age to say goodbye," Thinking of this, Rong Hai's anxiety that had just been relieved came to his heart again, this is without a mother, her daughter is so good, but who will take her out for a walk?
"Where's Lan'er? Why haven't you come back yet? Thinking of Rong Lan's previous arrangement, Rong Hai instructed, "Go to the gate and wait, the eldest lady is back, and immediately call her to see me." ”
Li Jingyi and his entourage arrived at Fangyuan, Fang Weimin and the Wang family were busy arranging a yard for Li Yuanshan, while Li Jingyi broke up with Yun Chi outside the garden gate and invited her father to her Qixia Pavilion first.
As soon as Yun Chi returned to his Jiming Courtyard, he saw Zhou Shiqing and Lu Jian sitting there drinking tea, and he was relieved, "Can you take it?" ”
Lu Jian held a few account books in front of Yun Chi, "With Mr. Zhou here, fortunately not disgraced!" ”
Zhou Shiqing shook the fan in his hand disapprovingly, "Today you are in the palace to try the case, the defendants are the Rong family, the masters of the entire Dadu Governor's Mansion are empty, and the people who can be lazy have quietly run out to listen to the trial. ”
Lu Jian scratched his head, feeling that what Zhou Shiqing said was too exaggerated, "Hehe, the defense of this Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is really not very good, and it can't be compared with our Hou Mansion." ”
I got what I had always wanted, Yun Chi ignored Zhou Shiqing's attitude, he looked at the few account books that were not bare, "This is Rong Hai's usual accounts?" ”
Don't even have a cover?
"You don't have to look at it, these are the ones that Lu Jian and I turned out of the secret cabinet, I deliberately found a few books of similar thickness, and replaced the covers, as long as Rong Hai doesn't want to check the accounts for a while, it is estimated that he will not find that things have been dropped these days," Zhou Shiqing is still very confident in his craft, "Now that there are human and physical evidence, the Governor of the South Road Naval Division, it is time to change people." ”
"These are not enough," Yun Chi shook his head, "In the palace change eight years ago, Rong Hai also made a contribution, the emperor had a good impression of him, and he also had military merits, these things are not enough to put him to death,"
Yun Chi did not hide the killing intent in his eyes, he knew Emperor Longwu too well, and wanted him to personally order the addition of this lineage, these were still not enough, "Mr. Zhou, you said that if the Hu family is the leader, will the emperor make up his mind?" ”
"Did Zichu fall in love with the Hu family's property?" Zhou Shiqing was interested, "As far as I know, this Hu family is now rich and rivals the country, and they have copied the Hu family's ......."
Yun Chi flipped through the account book in his hand, "Ill-gotten gains, if you take them, you will take them, can't Mr. Zhou bear it?" ”
"How do you know that the Hu family made ill-gotten gains? The Hu family's ticket number business is all over the country, "It's really ill-gotten gains, then take it, but the Hu family has been a merchant for several generations, Zhou Shiqing frowned, and pointed in the direction of Qixia Pavilion, "Who told you?" ”
"That one? It's not good for you to call the county lord's name, and it's okay to call her a title, what is this and that? Yun Chi was a little displeased and frowned.
When did Yunchi start to care about this? Zhou Shiqing twisted the mustache on his chin and smiled meaningfully, "Master Hou said yes, that is the county lord of Ruihe, the niece of today." ”
No matter how Yun Chi heard it, he felt that there was something in Zhou Shiqing's words, but he couldn't say anything wrong, so he glared at him helplessly, "It's good that you know!" ”
In the Qixia Pavilion, Li Yuanshan had already washed away the dust, changed into clean clothes and came out, and saw that the table in the side hall was already full of dishes, and said with a smile, "This is still a girl's intimacy, and I know that my father is hungry." ”
Li Jingyi's eyes were red, and she walked over and helped Li Yuan sit down, "It's the daughter who is not filial, and her father is so tired that she has come all the way over, you must have worked very hard along the way." ”
At the beginning, she followed the Rong family to Zhuzhou to take up her post, and she walked for a month along the way, and now it has only been more than 20 days since she had an accident, and Li Yuanshan has already arrived.
"My father has lived in the army for many years, what is this distance? It's not hard," Li Yuanshan motioned for his daughter to sit down beside him, "I heard that Mr. Zhou Shiqing Zhou is in the Qincha team, have you asked him to show it for you?" ”
Along the way, Li Yuanshan was most worried about Li Jingyi's body.
Li Jingyi nodded, "My daughter has been taking the medicine prescribed by Mr. Zhou, and now she is fine, Mr. Zhou said that as long as she slowly recuperates in the future, she will not be in serious trouble, father, if you didn't come over today, my daughter wouldn't know how long she would have to be entangled with the Rong family!" ”
Li Yuanshan heard that his daughter was forced to jump the Pearl River by the Rong family, and he couldn't care about anything, "I'm also afraid that you don't have an elder around you to support you, and then you will be calculated by the Rong family, so I changed horses all the way to Zhuzhou, but I didn't expect to watch a good show in that Mingyue Tower,"
Li Yuanshan was originally dissatisfied with Li Jingyi's marriage, but the eldest princess of Jinyang was stubborn, and Rong Zhi himself couldn't find a particularly big problem, and he came to the door several times to show Li Yuanshan enough sincerity, Li Yuanshan originally thought that although Rong Zhi was not very successful, but with the dual identities of the eldest princess of Jinyang and the county lord of Ruihe, as long as the Rong family wanted to be "motivated", they didn't dare to treat their daughter slowly, but they didn't expect that only one ban order made the Rong family show its original form.
After listening to Li Yuanshan finish talking about what Rong Lan did in Mingyue Tower, Li Jingyi was not very angry, "According to my daughter, the entire Rong family, the most difficult thing is her, there are many people who are used to being two-faced and three-faced, but they are not ashamed of being two-faced, and it is not easy to find the one who is right, and this Miss Rong is the best in this, you haven't seen the play she performed in Fangyuan that day, if you don't know, you have to think that she rescued me from the Rong family." ”
"No matter how powerful she is, she is just a girl, and she can't make any big waves," Li Yuanshan didn't look at Rong Lan at all, he drank all the soup in the bowl in one gulp, and then said, "What I'm worried about is Rong Hai, he can go from a small hundred households to today, but it is not simple." ”
Speaking of Rong Hai, Li Jingyi thought of what Rong Zhi told him about him and his mother, and her heart was heavy, but she didn't know how to talk to her father, "Did you tell my mother about me?" What did she say? She came to the palace to ask for this holy decree? ”
Li Yuanshan didn't want to tell his daughter about the grievances of the year, shook his head and said, "I received Yunhou's flying pigeon summons, so I went directly to ask to see the emperor, how to say, you are also the emperor's niece, the Rong family harmed you, isn't it a slap in the face of the emperor?" And it was Yunhou who passed the book, and the emperor didn't believe it, and it just so happened that the queen was there, so he issued this will,"
It was because he was not sure about the eldest princess of Jinyang, and Li Yuanshan was unwilling to make trouble, but he went directly to the palace and asked for the emperor's will.
In fact, Emperor Longwu's punishment of the Rong family was not heavy, but the Rong family killed the daughter of the clan, the only niece of the emperor, "It's just that the emperor is thinking about the old love,"
Li Yuanshan shook his head, "Let's not rush, take your time in this matter, the blood debt father must be paid by them with blood!" ”
Although Li Jingyi was saved by Yun Chi and did not lose her life, as long as she thought about the fact that her daughter had just been miscarried and was forced to jump into the river, it was impossible for Li Yuanshan to forgive the Rong family, "Rong Hai said that he didn't know about it, and I categorically wouldn't believe it, "Without Rong Hai's support, how could a businesswoman from the Hu family be so bold?"
"Then did you say hello to your mother before you left Beijing?" It turned out that this matter had not gone through the eldest princess of Jinyang, and after listening to Li Yuanshan's words, Li Jingyi instinctively guessed the so-called "inside affair" between the eldest princess of Jinyang and Rong Hai, Li Yuanshan may not be clear in his heart, and this cognition made Li Jingyi sad and inexplicable.
"I came out of the palace and went to the Eldest Princess's Mansion, your mother," Li Yuanshan sighed and said softly, "When you go back and tell her in person, maybe she will believe it." ”
Li Jingyi saw her father's lonely expression, and her heart was sad, and she didn't ask anymore, "I've heard someone say before that the Rong family can only go today with the help of my mother and the support of my grandfather, but just now you said that the emperor is thinking about the old love, is it possible that the emperor has a relationship with the Rong family?" ”
Li Yuanshan nodded, "What was Rong Hai's official position eight years ago?" The deputy governor of the Zhejiang Navy Division, and the governor of the Zhejiang Navy Division at that time, he killed it with one knife! ”
Eight years ago? Palace chaos? Li Jingyi's eyes widened in surprise, "Was the Governor of the Water Master at that time a member of the Zeng family?" ”
Seeing Li Yuanshan nodding, Li Jingyi understood, this person had already stood in the right line, "How did Rong Hai know the emperor?" ”
Li Yuanshan shook his head, "Our emperor, who has hills and valleys in his chest, and has no prior preparations, how can he defeat the Zeng family eight years ago and sit on that throne?" ”
Although the sailors far away in the south of the Yangtze River did not have a big impact on the internal turmoil in the capital, Rong Hai found the right time to strike first, which can be regarded as a public statement and won the favor of Emperor Longwu.
"I see," Li Jingyi understood now, this Rong Hai was clearly a discerning speculator, "It's just that as my father said, the Jiangnan Navy Division will not have any impact on the situation in the capital at all, and Rong Hai's contributions over the years can be regarded as enough compensation from the emperor, if you don't know how to converge again, the idea of incense will run out sooner or later!" ”
Enyi Hou Yunchi clearly came to find fault, as for Emperor Longwu's intentions, or Yun Chi's own ulterior motives, Li Jingyi didn't know, but she knew that Yun Chi would not return in vain this time, she told her father all kinds of observations and speculations about Yun Chi, "What do you think the emperor wants to comfort Jiangnan this time?" ”
Emperor Longwu is very kind to this brother-in-law, Li Yuanshan thinks carefully about Yunchi's usual life, although he is a little arrogant, but he is a person who does not leak anything, so that people can't find the slightest fault, "Enyi Hou is very much like his grandfather Xianwei Guogong!" ”
