Chapter 14: Quick Knife
Chen Hua didn't feel reckless: "Those people will always get on the carriage, do you think that if you go down, they will let me go?" ”
Those bandits just wanted to play with them, and if it weren't for the two of them later, they would have been caught sooner or later.
Chen Hua actually wants to go out and have a look, instead of always letting others stand up for her.
These words made Apple speechless for a while, in fact, what Chen Hua said was not wrong, but Apple was also a little angry at that time, if the person who followed Miss Fourth was not her, she might not have encountered these things.
Chen Hua calmly sat across from her and let her look at him.
There will be some time back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, so let's rest first.
Ali followed Li Cong and rode forward, walking a long way, Ali looked down at Li Cong, the king of Wu.
"Young master, did you just notice that this Miss Chen Si is particularly familiar, as if she has seen it somewhere?"
"You look a lot like the portraits you have on hand, a little like that woman."
Ali nodded, but this Miss Chen Si was not as cold as Concubine Rong, but she felt a little more delicate.
Miss Chen Si stood there quietly, not feeling too afraid.
It's a pity that the age doesn't match the little princess.
In fact, what the little princess looks like, after so many years, Ali has almost forgotten it.
But just because of Miss Chen Si's appearance, Ali felt that Li Cong didn't have to push this family business away so quickly.
Miss Chen Si's face may be able to dig deeper, after all, people have imagination, but the appearance of so many similar people these days is really a bit staggering.
As the daughter of the prime minister, Miss Chen Si is too beautiful.
Ali mentioned his opinion to Li Cong: "Young master, your family affairs are really twists and turns, it is better to become with this Miss Chen Si, you see that she doesn't seem to be afraid this time, I see that being a young lady can do it." ”
"What are you doing, that girl looks eleven or twelve years old, and she is still a child."
Ah Li didn't think it was a big deal: "Now some girls are married at the age of eleven, and this Miss Chen Si doesn't say that she is already fourteen, maybe she is just small." It's okay to marry the young master who comes back first, and we don't need to talk to Your Majesty all at once. And the causes of death of the three people in front of me also have to be secretly investigated? ”
This time and again, Ali really didn't want the young master to fall into that situation again.
Being criticized is not a good thing.
If he could, Ali hoped that his young master would also have an ordinary face like the son of an ordinary family.
He may not be valued by his family, but he is motivated, and when he is old, he will marry a young lady who is the right person, have his own children in a few years, and live his life plainly and ordinarily like everyone else.
Li Cong didn't continue to talk to him, because he had already arrived at the gate of the palace.
Even if it is King Wu, he needs to dismount and inspect.
After the inspection, Li Cong entered the palace.
Emperor Yu is criticizing the folds.
Seeing Li Cong coming in, he pretended to be angry: "What? You also need me to add another edict to you, so you will enter the palace for a trip, and it is really not easy for you to come in, is it not that I am not looking for you, can you push it away? ”
"Where is the imperial brother talking about, the minister is busy in the army, and he can't find time to come in for a while, and he will often come in to see the imperial brother when he is free."
"You will avoid the important and take it lightly, a mouth grows on your mouth, and you can fool me at will. But don't forget your important business, I can't wait for this family business I have set for you, and in another month, you will marry me immediately. ”
Li Cong didn't expect it to be so soon: "This matter still needs to be considered in the long run." ”
"Marriage matters, what is there to think about in the long run, Li Cong, I have given you too much time, look at your age." Emperor Yu shook his head, "Don't delay and delay, if you continue to drag it out, I don't know if this matter can be done." The previous marriages were all so yellow, it is better to cut through the mess quickly and settle the matter immediately. It just so happens that I also have someone here to handle the marriage for you, so you don't have to bother, just give them a well-fitting board for you when the time comes, and make a suitable groom's official clothes to wear. ”
Emperor Yu worked hard for Li Cong's marriage.
But Li Cong has another question: "Have you seen the fourth lady of the Chen family with your own eyes, obviously she looks only eleven or twelve years old, how can I marry such a young girl?" ”
"Can you use this as well?"
Emperor Yu would never say that he had never seen the fourth lady of the Chen family, "I personally asked Chen Wenli, the fourth miss of his family is fourteen years old, the same age as flowers, and she has not yet decided on a marriage." Where did you go to know that people are only eleven or twelve years old, let me tell you Li Cong, even if Chen Wenli deceives the king, that girl is only eleven or twelve years old, you have to marry me. There's nothing to be a little girl, and it's yours to marry home. Now that you are an old bachelor in your twenties, you have three family affairs, so you don't have to be suspicious of this matter. With this one, it's time for you to steal the fun. ”
Although this Emperor Yu is an emperor, his form is more like a bandit.
Li Cong didn't mean to continue to talk back to him, so he could only be silent and not speak.
As soon as Emperor Yu saw Li Cong like this, he knew that in this matter, he had the upper hand today.
He lowered his head and pretended to be very serious and looked at Song Zhe and said, "I'm very busy right now, and there are not many credible people around. Ah Cong, do you know how hard it is to be an emperor? You don't come back to help me, and you're always out training. In this way, if you have to be free, you can stay in the capital for a few more days, and visit Chen Wenli by the way, and then you will become a family, and it will not be a problem to always be in the army. Sooner or later, you will also have to enter the court and face those who are deceitful. You also have to make more efforts to make more connections in the capital here, and more contact with Chen Wenli can make it convenient for you to act. The two of you and your son-in-law work together, and you must be able to weigh on that Zhao Yan in the court. ”
Li Cong is not in the mood to talk about the affairs of the court at all.
Seeing that Emperor Yu would not handle his marriage according to his opinion at all, he retired.
Seeing Li Cong from far and near, looking at his face, he knew that he was deflated by Emperor Yu, which was not very pleasant.
But Ali's heart rejoiced.
"Young master, why don't we go to the restaurant to eat something, this way, the little one is really hungry and tired."
Ah Li was in tatters, who would have thought that this person would be the right-hand man of Li Cong, the king of Wu.
Li Cong glanced at Ali, got up and got on his horse neatly: "You lead the way, and you have to go back to the house when you turn around, and while it's dawn, the people inside can also clean up." ”
Li Cong hasn't returned to the capital for a long time, and the Wu Wangfu has been vacant for a long time, but the people inside are frequent residents.
"Young master, don't worry, I've already asked people to go back and inform them, and when we have dinner later, we can go back and rest."
Ali is also happy to get on the horse, this Li Cong has no one to cure, so he listens to Emperor Yu's words.
I think that the young master can stay in the capital for a long time, and he will not return to the barracks immediately.
He Ali can also take advantage of this to rest and rest.
Ali here has his careful thoughts, and the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion on the other side is not very good now.
If nothing else, it was Aunt Gu's previous accounts, so the Dou family checked them all, and really caught her handle.
Dou Shi directly put the account in front of Chen Wenli, and she said that Aunt Gu had swallowed at least 2,000 taels of silver.
Now the deficit of the two thousand taels of silver is still in the accounts, so Aunt Gu must spit out everything she swallowed.
Ever since Aunt Gu wanted to meddle in the house's internal affairs, Dou's heart was pounding.
As expected, although the accounts are beautiful, the beauty is greasy.
Dou asked many people to help her check her accounts, and every time she calculated a sum, she was angry.
This is a lot of money, Aunt Gu is very tight, and she may not have thought that she would be so fine.
Aunt Gu knew that the Dou family was checking the accounts, although she told Chen Wenli that she was doing her best for everything in the family, but only she knew how frightened she was.
These days, this Aunt Gu didn't dare to make any trouble, but she couldn't imagine that Dou's actions were so fast, let alone that Dou directly ignored her face and reported her swallowing money directly to Chen Wenli.
Dou handled it very skillfully, and when he told Chen Wenli, he didn't say it quietly to two people, but said it in front of the public stewards.
Although Chen Wenli loves Aunt Gu, he generally listens to the Dou family in important matters at home, especially in the inner house, because this is the main mother.
Chen Wenli had also been emphasizing the identity of the Dou family's housemother in front of Aunt Gu before, but Aunt Gu herself didn't like to hear this.
At this moment, she saw Chen Wenli and Dou sitting side by side, and she looked extremely disappointed, and her heart was also cold.
Especially when she saw the evidence, Aunt Gu's tears kept falling.
"Master, sister, I am wronged in this matter......"
Aunt Gu shouted grievances in front of everyone, which many people didn't expect.
After all, the evidence is conclusive, and they never imagined that the case would be overturned.
The Dou family on the top was expressionless, but Chen Wenli was relieved, and looked at Aunt Gu: "This pen and piece are all empty money, the evidence and accounts are here, what do you have to be wronged?" Do you know how much effort your sister has put into doing these things for you? ”
"Earlier, you said that you watched your sister deal with the hard work of the family and wanted to help share it, you see, this is how you share it? Okay, you Gu, do you really have the face to say wrong? ”
Aunt Gu sobbed endlessly: "No matter the rest, master, I really have grievances in this matter." What you see is not the truth, what kind of person am I, are you still not clear after all these years? But I can't say this in front of everyone, I need to talk about it alone with my sister. Otherwise, I wouldn't admit it, and even if I want to do it, how can I be so stupid? Master, sister, you must listen to my secrets. ”
Aunt Gu gave birth to two children for Chen Wenli, but with proper maintenance, her skin is still very watery.
At this moment, she knelt on the ground, flirting with Chen Wenli's eyebrows from time to time, making her more and more pitiful.
Chen Wenli also liked Aunt Gu the most, he looked at Dou's family: "Madam, you say this, is there really any hidden secret?" After all, it's two thousand taels of silver, which is not too little, if you listen to what Aunt Gu said, see where you went? If we can make up for this shortfall, we can make a big deal small. ”
