Chapter 406, Puzzle Solution
Ziqing naturally didn't know that the result of the negotiation between Shen and Zeng Ruixiang was to take her to Beijing together. She is changing Lin Kangping's clothes, and Lin Kangping is going to see the Qin prefect. Either way, this trip is a must-go.
Not long after Lin Kangping went out, the Shen family came over, and she also wanted to know what happened yesterday, who told the Qin family?
Ziqing had to say it again, and suddenly, Ziqing thought of Mrs. Qin's clothes yesterday, and she didn't know what was wrong, so she said to Shen: "Mother, if Mrs. Qin comes and asks about Grandma's clothes, you can be sure that Zixi gave it to you, don't say that it was sent by Xiaoyi's family." ”
Why is that? Isn't it just a piece of clothing? It's better than that, we haven't worn it? Shen asked.
Actually, Ziqing didn't know if there was any difference in this, but seeing that Mrs. Qin seemed to be particularly interested in the things sent by Xiaoyi's family and the Wen family, she had to guard against it. As for those saucers and net bottles, Mrs. Qin had already seen them, and then she put them away, but she seemed to want to cover them, so Ziqing still put them in place.
"Mother, we don't know what is going on here, but just in case, this Mrs. Qin must have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace."
The mother and daughter were talking, and Xiao Fan came over and said that Mrs. Qin had arrived.
Ziqing and Shen walked out, and Mrs. Qin was a little stunned when she saw Shen, but quickly put on a smiling face and said, "I'm just from my sister's side." There's no one at home, presumably here, and that's true. My sister is really, she still treats me as an outsider. Even our mother didn't tell me a word about her birthday, so my lord had something to discuss with Lin Kangping. Otherwise, it's really rude. ”
"How dare you alarm Madame? It's just a family gathering together to make the old lady happy. Even I didn't go over, so I went to kowtow in advance. Shen smiled.
Seeing that there was only Mrs. Qin alone, Ziqing smiled and said, "Why didn't you find Mrs. Fu and Mrs. Xia to come over today, this time, I can't make up enough." ”
Mrs. Qin listened and said, "It can be said that I came to you and Lin Kangping specially today. Can't I just come and see you? ”
"But I don't dare to be, my family is fair and went to see Lord Qin, yesterday's post, we only saw it when we went home at night, I'm afraid that there is something important about the adults. Early in the morning, my father-in-law went out. Madame, please. Ziqing said that he brought the guests into the house on the west side.
Mrs. Qin sighed when she heard this, and said: "Hey, this is really a scripture that is difficult to read, and we are also looking at the scenery, in fact, who can imagine those difficulties?" ”
Ziqing listened to Mrs. Qin's words. must have asked for something, but what can Ziqing, a woman who doesn't come out of the door, know? Wasn't Lin Kangping found by Lord Qin? This will, what is she going to do with Ziqing again?
Could it be that Lord Qin and his wife agreed at home? I'm afraid that Lin Kangping will not be easy to deal with, so I came to Ziqing to talk to him?
In fact. Ziqing really guessed correctly. Didn't they think that Ziqing was a village girl who had never seen the world, and called Lin Kangping away, and this Mrs. Qin came to the door, but she didn't expect the Shen family to be there.
However, Mrs. Qin quickly calmed down, the Shen family is stronger than Ziqing, and it is also limited, if you use it well, you may be able to help.
No, Mrs. Qin sighed first, and Shen naturally heard the meaning of her words, and casually echoed: "But that's not it?" My eldest son, it sounds like he has been promoted, and he has become the magistrate of Jing County, but the saint said that if he doesn't do it well in three years, he will send my son to those remote and remote places. ”
Mrs. Qin was stunned when she heard this, this Shen didn't answer her words and asked, suddenly, she thought of something, and asked: "I heard that the emperor of this pioneer is very fond of your Tanhualang, and he must have rewarded a lot of good things or something, right?" ”
"Good stuff?" Shen remembered Ziqing's advice just now, so he said: "
What can there be? My little four sent me a few pieces of clothing, and what else is wishful, and I don't know anything else. ”
When Mrs. Qin heard this, she had to turn around and ask Ziqing, and said, "Ziqing, I really have something to come to you today, and I can't do it, so let's be honest with you." ”
Ziqing heard this and had to ask, "I don't know what difficulties Mrs. Qin has encountered?" It's just that my family is a civilian, can I help my wife? ”
Mrs. Qin listened, so she had to tell the story from the beginning, it turned out that the prefect of this Yuecheng lady is Mrs. Qin's own sister, Mrs. Qin's maiden family was originally a native of the capital, and her father was Shaoqing of Taichang Temple.
Originally, Yuecheng Governor Chen and several other people took the dry shares from Lin Kangping, and this matter was somehow known from above, and someone mentioned Chen Governor's Mansion, and Chen Governor hurriedly asked Lin Kangping to withdraw his shares.
"However, the current emperor somehow knew this, and he was furious, saying that he ordered the provinces to conduct a thorough investigation, and sent people directly from above to investigate, saying that he was not afraid of your annoyance, how many of today's officials are clean and can withstand the investigation? No, my brother-in-law panicked when he heard this, and sent someone to my lord overnight to discuss the matter. ”
"But, for such a big thing, my family is just the lowest Bai Ding, how can I help Madame?" Ziqing still didn't understand where Mrs. Qin saw that Ziqing could help?
"To be honest, when I first came to visit my sister, I just wanted to get to know my sister, let's make friends, I know that my sister's child is a Jingguan, and we may be able to support each other. However, I didn't expect that when I came to Ziqing's house by chance, I learned that your family Kangping came out of the Wen family and has always been close to the Wen family, which really made me overjoyed. So, I thought, I don't have to go far and near, it's better to go directly to your family Kangping to ask the Wen family, the third master of the Wen family heard that he is a member of the Ministry of Officials, and this time he sent someone down, it seems that there is him. ”
Only then did Ziqing know why Mrs. Qin had come to her house several times to test the situation. It was really for the Chen Governor's Mansion in Yuecheng, but Mrs. Qin hadn't told the truth yet, she only rushed to Yuecheng to inform the Chen Governor's Mansion to stop after seeing the porcelain from Ziqing's house.
Ziqing didn't know that Mrs. Qin's father was Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, in fact, he was in charge of ceremonies, sacrifices, fasting and other things, so Mrs. Qin had heard about the royal utensils and clothes since she was a child, and she still had some discernment. Therefore, as soon as she saw the porcelain of Ziqing's family, she knew that it was not an ordinary product, even if it was not a tribute, it was also customized by the royal family for those first-class and second-grade officials, which was regarded as a royal reward for the minister, and the Wen family could give it to the royal reward, which naturally had a great relationship, but Mrs. Qin did not expect that these things did not come out of the Wen family.
Ziqing naturally didn't know the twists and turns in this, and said: "Mrs. Qin, I said that I never ask about my father-in-law's affairs outside. Besides, Lord Qin has already found my father-in-law, presumably my father-in-law will make it clear to Lord Qin, even if I am no longer sensible, I know the depths, you also know, my father-in-law is just a subordinate from the Wen family, how much weight can I have? In this matter, I think Madame should make more plans. ”
When Ziqing said this, Lin Kangping was standing in Lord Qin's study, and he also rejected Lord Qin's proposal to let him come forward to find Wen San with some trepidation, but Lord Qin was not as tactful as Mrs. Qin's words.
"My lord, you also know that I am just a little servant next to the young master, that is, a slave of the Wen family, and there are hundreds of servants in the Wen Mansion, and the people around the young master have grown up from childhood to adulthood, I don't know how many, but I am afraid that after all these years, the young master has long forgotten me. Even if you haven't forgotten, the master's affairs are not something that I can only intervene in as a slave, my lord, do you think this is the reason? Lin Kangping asked.
"Kangping, you don't have to fight me haha? I've heard that the Wen family came forward to help you in Yuecheng, otherwise, how could Governor Chen and them be planted in your hands? When have you ever seen the fat in your mouth spit out again? Therefore, this matter, the bell still needs to be tied to the bell, and it is not bothering the two masters, because of you, it is naturally best for you to go to the knot. Also, Governor Chen agreed, not only will he return all the previous silver to you, as long as you keep his position, in the future, the business of Yuecheng, you are still afraid that there will be no money to earn, and it will be convenient for you to be convenient with others, you have heard this sentence, right? Lord Qin said gloomily.
"My lord, what I said is the truth, the matter of Yuecheng, I really didn't come forward with the Wen family, presumably it must be that Governor Chen offended others, and it is possible that others have stumbled over them. Adults must also know that Governor Chen's Mansion is not only related to my family, and after a little careful analysis, can the Wen family offend the officialdom for a slave who has left his nationality? Isn't that logical? Maybe Governor Chen offended others, and others used my name to clean him up, it's not impossible, isn't it? ”
Lord Qin listened to the deep groan for a while, and asked, "Is it really not the Wen family you are looking for?" How did I hear that when your little girl turned one year old, the Wen family specially sent congratulatory gifts from the capital? Doesn't that make sense, right? ”
"My lord, the congratulatory gift of the Wen family was really not sent specially, it was sent by the shopkeeper of the Wen family in Anzhou City. Adults should know that my family and the Wen family have some business dealings, the oranges produced by my family can always be put in the New Year, as well as the ham sausages produced by my farm, etc., the people in the capital also love to be fresh, my family at the end of November every year to send people to the Wen family, by the Wen family people sent to the capital. The young master of the Wen family is also a handy person and gave my child a congratulatory gift. ”
After Lin Kangping finished speaking, he looked directly at Lord Qin. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
