Chapter 153: Involvement

Sheng Mingzhu didn't talk nonsense with Mrs. Guo, and directly called someone to find the account manager and the big box at the beginning. Just counted it in front of everyone, and there was no fear of stage fright at all.

"A horse of Jiangling silk satin, from Fuxiang Cloth Village, the record can be checked, worth 30 gold, the cloud top jade carving is from Hengyang Zhenbao Zhai, the record can be checked, worth 100 gold......" As Sheng Mingzhu read it out one by one, the sweat on Mrs. Guo's forehead became more and more, and the people around her were not fools, and they immediately understood that the Guo family was not clean.

Sheng Mingzhu didn't forget to ask Mrs. Guo after counting: "Can Mrs. Guo hear clearly?" What's missing or what's missing? Mrs. Guo smiled reluctantly: "No." ”

"That being the case, the box was sealed in the library and left untouched, and Mrs. Guo could take it back at any time. As for Lord Guo's case, I am an inner house woman who does not want to interfere in the government affairs, so how to deal with the natural marquis and the adult who tried the case have the final say. What Mrs. Guo said when she came to the Hou Mansion that day, and what did she promise in the mansion, so many people saw it. The boxes were also counted and recorded that day, and I was not afraid to confront them in court. Sheng Mingzhu said.

Mrs. Guo didn't expect that this Mrs. Hou Mansion would not play cards according to common sense, she made such a fuss, she was supposed to sit down in the Hou Mansion to receive gifts according to her instructions, and when the time came, it was not her one mouth to add something to the gift list. However, Sheng Mingzhu actually ordered the gift list in public, and did not leave a way out for himself.

Mrs. Guo's face changed several times, as if she had opened a dyeing workshop. Glimpsing the excitement around her, and Mrs. Dingguohou, who was more splashy and muddy than her in front of her, no matter how unwilling she was in her eyes, she had no choice but to slip away.

This Sheng Mingzhu also shouted at her in a loud voice: "Mrs. Guo, if you don't want this box, I will hand it over to the Hou Ye who investigates the case." Mrs. Guo walked more urgently, and she couldn't wait to put on her wings and fly back.

Sent Mrs. Guo away, when Sheng Mingzhu greeted the ladies of various mansions, everyone seemed to have forgotten what had just happened, and Mingzhu talked affectionately, and waited until the Aunt Lin, who had no sense of existence, saw the ceremony, and no one cared much about this little concubine, looking at Sheng Mingzhu's means to scare away Mrs. Guo today, he knew that this Mrs. Dingguo Marquis was not easy to get along with, and many people also broke off the idea of adding a few more concubines to a given marquis.

A sun-gazing banquet was completed lively, and as for Aunt Lin, it seemed to be dormant and stopped for several days.

Lin Qingyan wasn't afraid of Sheng Mingzhu, nor did she extinguish the idea of fighting her, but it was just because she had encountered something more tricky.

On this day, only Lin Qingyan's personal maids Bihe and Lin Qingyan were left in the inner room of Qinghui Courtyard, and at this time, Lin Qingyan grabbed a letter in his hand with a blue face, and his heart was angry and hateful.

Lai Qi, that bastard, actually threatened her with Jiang Ping's matter!

Bihe looked at Lin Qingyan's face, thinking about the things mentioned in the letter, she was also shocked and scared, she couldn't help but cowardly said: "Lai Qi is a scoundrel, he holds his aunt's handle and can't control his mouth, if he shouts everywhere, he ......"

Lin Qingyan raised his eyebrows and glared: "It's because the prince didn't clean up the aftermath at the beginning, so this kind of thing happened, and the success is not enough and there is more than failure!" Bihe looked at the angry Lin Qingyan, and only felt that her whole body was cold, because every time Lin Qingyan was angry, she was the one who suffered.

Lin Qingyan looked at the shrunken Bihe, suddenly suppressed his anger, and smiled softly: "Bihe, only you have been with me for so many years, and I have always remembered your goodness in my heart." Jiang Ping's money makes us worry about food and clothing for the rest of our lives, but when this person has no power and power, no amount of money can be saved. Men, isn't that just that kind of thing, how can it compare to our sisterhood. ”

Bihe felt sick when she listened to Lin Qingyan's clichΓ©s. Yes, as the famous prostitute in the alley building, Lin Qingyan was circling among many men on the one hand, and on the other hand, she felt that men were dirty, which made her disgusting and disgusting, and only treated them as gadgets, as pastimes, she just enjoyed the feeling of being sought after, and the person the girl loved most was afraid that she was the only one herself.

Bihe has resentment and hatred, but she doesn't dare to show it. Every time Lin Qingyan was angry, he wanted to trample her, leaving blood marks on her hands, and then carefully medicated her with snow ointment, Bihe always felt that Lin Qingyan was not only a crazy madman, but also a demon from hell. No, demons and madmen are not as disgusting as her!

Lin Qingyan took Bihe's hand and said, "In the past, Bihe always wanted to steal her sister's rouge and wipe it on her mouth, but now do you want to wipe it on her mouth?" Seeing Lin Qingyan approaching, he tried to touch himself. Bihe finally couldn't help but scream, and squatted down with both hands tightly around herself.

Lin Qingyan's face stiffened slightly, and he felt quite bored, so he didn't continue to toss Bihe, but said: "Lai Qi threatened me to go to the dog cave in the middle of the night to see him, you should be vigilant tonight, don't fall asleep." ”

Bihe squatted on the ground and thought that his reaction just now was too big, and he didn't know how Lin Qingyan would change the method to toss himself, his eyes were dead, and he promised that he should be.

Tonight, the dense clouds cover the moon, the starlight is dim, and during the third watch, the people in the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion are asleep, only Qinghui Courtyard slipped out of two black shadows, and tiptoed to the dog hole in the backyard.

I only listened to a rough voice learning to bark a nondescript dog, and after three consecutive sounds, I was ecstatic to see two figures coming.

The rough voice called: "Second grandmother of the Jiang family, I haven't seen you climb the high branches again for a few days, and now you have entered the Gaomen compound of the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, which is really rich." I looked at the second master of the Jiang family, who was looking forward to his daughter-in-law's homecoming, and he was also pitiful, and all the family business was on the line, but he was making wedding dresses for others. ”

Lin Qingyan didn't want to entangle with this person more, so he asked, "Jiang Ping is still alive?" It's true? ”

Lai Qi said lightly: "Isn't it? The second master was almost hacked to death by the mountain bandits, but fortunately, my Lai Qi is a loyal protector, and he desperately carried Jiang Erye out of the pile of dead people, or he would have died at such a young age, and the family property was swept away by the beautiful daughter-in-law to outsiders, so wronged. Do you say yes, Second Grandma Jiang. ”

Lin Qingyan said coldly: "Where is he?" What do you want? Lai Qi said: "I just want to get justice for the second master, and take out those dogs who seek money and kill them and beat them up." Second grandmother, tell me, as soon as the second master came back, he heard that his daughter-in-law had made a concubine, so he was so angry! It is said that bitches are ruthless and dramas are meaningless, but today I have seen it. ”

Lin Qingyan suppressed his voice and asked again: "Where is Jiang Ping?" ”

Lai Qi hugged his arms and said: "Second grandma, I have to take care of the second master all the way through the starry night, you don't have to ask, you have to withdraw some money for errands and medicine." ”

Lin Qingyan was a little impatient: "Give it to you, give it to you, you will bring Jiang Ping to Xing'an Temple tomorrow, I will give you as much as you want." ”

Lai Qi rubbed his hands and smiled: "That's okay, second grandma, let's talk about it, if you miss the appointment, I, a rough man, can't control my mouth." ”

Lin Qingyan took out a purse from his arms and threw it out: "This is a deposit, and there is twenty gold in it, if you do a good job, there will be another reward." ”

Lai Qipao opened the purse and counted it, and it was indeed twenty gold, and he responded with a mouthful: "Wrap it on me, and you will be able to see the second master in Xing'an Temple tomorrow." ”

Lin Qingyan finished explaining to Lai Qi, and was about to go back to the house, but was startled by a voice.

"Who's where in the middle of the night?" As he spoke, the voice shone in the light of the lantern.

At the same time that she saw Lin Qingyan's master and servant, Lin Qingyan also saw the person clearly, it turned out to be the rough girl in the lady's room, and the girl today was also in a hurry, and she went to the warehouse at night to find some candles, and actually bumped into Aunt Lin in the backyard.

The surprise on the face of the rough girl Ru Mei was undisguised, and she asked in hindsight: "Aunt Lin, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?" She held up the lantern again, and then she saw a tall figure in the darkness, the silhouette of which could only be a man.

But because it's far away, I can't see which man it is, but Aunt Lin isn't stealing people like this, right?

Ru Mei was startled, realizing that she had seen something she shouldn't have seen, so frightened that she lost the lantern and ran away.

Lin Qingyan looked at it and said to Lai Qi in a cold voice: "Don't chase it yet, she has seen your face!" Kill her! ”

Lai Qi was shocked, this woman is really ruthless. But there was no way, he still had to ask Aunt Lin for money, so he could only chase after that little girl ruthlessly.

Ru Mei ran out of breath, panicked, the road was slippery in the dark, and as soon as she stepped on the air, she threw herself into the pool in front of her. The pool of water scrambled into her mouth, and she was flooded back with even a loud cry for help.

Lai Qi stood by the pool and watched coldly, until Ru Mei sank down and disappeared, he was relieved to go back to hand in the errand.

After this incident, Lin Qingyan didn't have the heart to talk to Lai Qiduo anymore, and hurriedly returned to Qinghui Courtyard. He lay down anxiously all night, and the next day he instructed Bihe to deliver a letter to the prince's informant, asking them to hurry to Xing'an Temple to eliminate the two hidden dangers of Jiang Ping and Lai Qi.

Lin Qingyan was eating breakfast here, waiting for news from Bihe, and the entire Dingguo Marquis Mansion over there also made a fuss, saying that someone had been found drowning.

Lin Qingyan just put his heart back in his stomach, and heard that the doctor had revived the drowning little girl, and now his wife also went to see it. Listening to these news, Lin Qingyan couldn't sit still anymore, and hurried to the courtyard of the main house.

As soon as she arrived, she found that not only Sheng Mingzhu, the wife of the Marquis of Dingguo, was also there, but Guan Ping, the Marquis of Dingguo, was also there.

Sheng Mingzhu glanced at Lin Qingyan inexplicably, and then said to Guan Ping: "I just sent away the Guo family, and there is this incident, and I don't know what unclean things have been recruited by the family recently." When the girl wakes up, I'll ask. I don't think she's such an imprudent character, I'm afraid something is wrong. ”

Seeing that Guan Ping nodded, Sheng Mingzhu said to the doctor again: "How long will it take for this girl to wake up?" ”
