Chapter 485: The Way

Looking at Wu Niang in front of her, San Niang really didn't know what to say.

"Wu Niang, do you know why Jin Sheng Jin Sheng didn't come to us for help?" Sanniang said lightly.

Wu Niang was stunned for a moment, she thought for a while: "Maybe it's because Cousin Jin Sheng has a good face and is not easy to speak, I ......"

"Face is more important than the lives of his family? So why did he enter Beijing for? ”

Wu Niang is stopped.

Sanniang asked again: "Then do you know why the Wang family sent you away in the first place?" Obviously, Uncle and Grandmother, she loves you very much, and Father and they don't dare to disobey the elders. ”

Wu Niang was silent.

Sanniang sighed: "Jin Sheng didn't open his mouth because he knew that if he asked for help from the Wang family, he would ask for help from the Wang family, not just for us." The decision of the clan, no one of the Wang family dares to disobey it easily, especially this kind of court matter, it is related to the future of the Wang family, and the clan will not take risks for any other outsiders. ”

"But the Sun family is not an outsider, grandmother, wasn't she born in the Sun family? The Sun family is our in-laws. Wu Niang retorted.

Sanniang bent her lips, but she didn't smile: "Wuniang, do you know the Lu family?" ”

"The Lu family?" Wu Niang was stunned.

"The Lu family of Anguo Gong is our great-grandmother's maiden family, and it was exterminated by the emperor back then." Sanniang said lightly, "When there was an accident in the Anguo Mansion, our great-grandmother was still in charge of the house, and the great-grandfather also worshiped Yipin, and the Wang family had at least seven or eight high-ranking officials above the third rank in the court, but what was the result?" ”

Wu Niang looked at San Niang a little dazed.

Sanniang continued: "Nowadays, when marrying a woman in Beijing, all of them value the family background of the other party, and they cannot become in-laws. Naturally, there are reasons why there are people to help and support them in times of difficulty, and the Wang family is no exception. But the premise is not to go against the family motto of the Wang family's loyalty. The Wang family has not relied on the help of their children and relatives to get to where they are today, but the trust of the emperors of previous dynasties. Something happened to the Sun family. It's not simple, it involves today's complex government politics. Fifth sister, you don't understand the powerful relationship here, so it's better not to meddle indiscriminately. ”

Wu Niang's face was already a little pale, and her eyes were wide open. It's as if you just have to close your eyes. Tears can fall, so she looks pitiful. People can't help but want to pity. It's a pity that Sanniang is a woman, and there is no way to feel distressed, just a little sympathy.

"Fifth sister. I also have a small friendship with my cousin Jin Sheng. He is also cautious in his relationship with the fifth brother. If we really have a chance to help him, will we still die without help? There is no action because there is nothing we can do. Besides, the Sun family has been ...... all these years We can only be glad that Cousin Jin Sheng escaped this catastrophe, which is already a great luck in misfortune. ”

"Is there really no way?" Wu Niang was silent for a long time. Finally, he said with a gloomy expression.

Sanniang thought for a while: "What is Jin Sheng's idea?" Do you just want to save the lives of your Sun family, or do you want them to get away with their crimes completely? If you just want your family to live. It's not without chance. ”

Wu Niang raised her head and looked at Sanniang when she heard this: "Third sister has a way?" ”

Sanniang shook her head: "What can I do, I'm not an immortal." Whether the knife on his head falls in the end depends on the emperor's intentions. ”

At that moment, there was a knock outside.

The little maid's voice sounded outside: "Miss, Sun Gongzi is back." ”

Wu Niang was a little flustered when she heard this, she looked at Sanniang and then at the door, bit her lip and whispered: "Third sister, I came to beg you without him." ”

Sanniang nodded: "I know, go open the door." ”

Wu Niang got up and opened the door, and Sun Jinsheng and Xuan Shao appeared at the door together.

Sun Jinsheng looked a little haggard, but he was just a young man, but he had a scruffy beard, and he was still blue and black at the moment, and he had never slept well after knowing the news from Beijing.

Sun Jinsheng looked at Wu Niang and then at San Niang: "Third cousin, are you here?" ”

Sanniang had already stood up and nodded when she heard the words: "I just came here for a while, and the fifth sister said that she wanted to see me, so she came over." ”

Sun Jinsheng and Xuan Shao walked in together, Xuan Shao looked at Sanniang, Sanniang shook his head lightly at him, and didn't say anything.

Several people sat down again, Sun Jinsheng took the tea poured by Wu Niang for him, drank it all in one gulp, put the cup on the table, and looked at everyone and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Today I went to sell some of the properties under my name, and I didn't want anyone to recognize me, so I deliberately lowered the price, which was at least thirty percent lower than the market price." In the past, when I was doing business, I never dwelt on the price of people, because the price they gave me was always lower than the market price, and I used to be complacent about it, thinking that it was my own ability. Looking back now, I am shocked to realize my ignorance. ”

In the past, when the Sun family had not fallen, many people wanted to take the Sun family's path to make money, but the worry was that there was no way to send the money out of the way, so Sun Jinsheng could not lose no matter what business he did, he himself may not know, he wanted to break away from the Sun family and gain a foothold in the business world with his own skills, which was almost difficult to do. Unless he goes incognito and starts as a lowly vendor.

"What then? Now is the time when you need money. Wu Niang said a little anxiously, seeing that everyone was looking at her, she blushed and lowered her head.

Sun Jinsheng smiled at her: "It's okay, just now Brother Xuan said that he helped me introduce a few real Chinese people." Sun Jinsheng looked at Xuan Shao and Sanniang, "They all say that real friends can be clearly distinguished in times of trouble, but I didn't believe it originally." It's just that today I went to see a few friends who used to be in the same place, and some of them have been favored by me before. Originally, I just wanted to ask them to help me ask if there was a suitable buyer, but I didn't want to be either at home or not in Beijing, and I couldn't even meet in person. Human affection is nothing more than that. ”

Sanniang couldn't help but sigh, although Sun Jinsheng was smart before, he was protected too well by Sun Yuanhong, after all, he lacked social experience. After these things, maybe it will make him grow a lot.

"What are your plans?" Xuan Shao asked.

Sun Jinsheng thought for a while: "Although I don't know much about the affairs of the imperial court, I have also understood some things in the past few days. I am afraid that the Sun family may not be innocent all these years, and it is the emperor who has made up his mind to clean up the Sun family. Sun Jinsheng smiled bitterly, "A few days after I left, an old housekeeper came to me with his son, saying that he was kicked out by my brother with an excuse and begged me to take him in." Later, I realized that this was the person my father deliberately left for me. That's what he told me. I used to ...... I really don't understand anything, and I'm still complacent, thinking I'm amazing. ”

I have to say that Sun Yuanhong is really good to Sun Jinsheng's son, and he thought of everything for him.

"I sold all the family property, and I didn't want to save all the people in the Sun family, the old housekeeper said that it was impossible. But I want them to be comfortable in prison...... I, it's really useless. Sun Jinsheng covered his face with his hands, and his voice was painful.

"How much money do you have?" Sanniang said suddenly.

Everyone was stunned.

"Third sister...... Wu Niang looked at San Niang in disbelief.

Sun Jinsheng wiped his face with his hand, raised his head, and said very calmly: "I sold all the properties in my name, plus the savings of my aunt and I over the years...... There should be about 80,000 taels. ”

That's a lot of money.

Seeing everyone's eyes looking at him, Sun Jinsheng smiled bitterly: "My aunt has a lot of silver there, and although these shops and properties under my command look inconspicuous, they are valuable." It must have been my father who secretly got it into my name. And my Zhuangzi, if it's also sold......"

Sanniang interrupted: "Uncle Cousin does a lot of things, just to want you and your aunt to have no worries about food and clothing." Even if you can't do this because of filial piety, you can't even have a place to stay, otherwise how can your cousin feel at ease? Zhuangzi should be kept for the time being. ”

Sun Jinsheng lowered his head and didn't speak, Sanniang knew that he was uncomfortable.

"Instead of thinking about making them comfortable in prison, it's better to think about how to keep them alive. Although the chance of getting away with the crime is very small, the emperor has always been generous, and it is not certain that he will be punished lightly. ”

Sun Jinsheng was stunned for a moment and looked at Sanniang: "The third cousin means ......"

Sanniang muttered: "I heard that because of the recent drought and the fire in the Temple of Heaven Great Prayer Hall for no reason, the ministers of the court and the people of the world have long been panicked. The emperor decreed that he would fast and bathe for 7749 days, and then invite the monks of Dabei Temple to enter the palace to recite scriptures and pray for blessings. At this time, I am afraid that it is inappropriate for the imperial court to go on a killing spree. I once heard a high-ranking monk say that disasters from heaven are often caused by too much killing in the human world, and resentment is condensed, so that the four seasons are out of tune. Since the emperor wants to invite the monks into the palace, the emperor and the queen mother, why are they afraid to listen to the Dharma? ”

"Monk?" Sun Jinsheng frowned and thought, "I know one or two of those monks in the Great Compassion Temple. ”

Sanniang nodded: "Eighty thousand taels of silver, it's a lot less, but in the eyes of some people, it's not too much, and if you give it to them, it may not give you something." You might as well find another way, no matter how close the monks are to the Buddha, they are still human. ”

The monk who had an affair with the kitchen steward in the Wang family was also a monk. I heard that the status of the Great Compassion Temple is not low now. Therefore, the monks also need to eat, drink, and have various other psychological and physiological needs.

"I know a monk named Wushen, he is a little different from other monks, I will look for him later." Sun Jinsheng said as if relieved.

Wushen? The corners of Sanniang's mouth twitched.

Should she say that no book can be written without coincidence? How can there be a monk like Wushen anywhere?
