Chapter 116: It's Time (Part 4)

The West Mansion is in chaos, but the East Mansion is leisurely.

The light rain was still falling, the banana leaves in the courtyard were crackling, the sound of the rain could be heard through the window, the thin bamboo curtains were laid in the room, Gu Mingzhu leaned on the soft pillow and leisurely flipped through a page of miscellaneous notes, yawned with his sleeves, and asked Mama Han: "Can Qian Er inquire clearly?" ”

Mama Han nodded: "I asked clearly, saying that the edict from the palace arrived at the Anning Bo Mansion early this morning, and I had already taught someone to take the hereditary Danshu iron coupon, but Mrs. Luo and the prince ...... It's Luo Jiagolang who hasn't been released yet, and it's still locked up in Tsinghua Garden. ”

"That Steward Liu said that Mrs. Luo and Luo Jiawulangjun accused each other, and they both said that they were not the other's, and it was not clear at this time, and the palace meant to find out and then punish them heavily! After all, it's a ......."

Mama Han couldn't speak, her own lady was not out of the cabinet, where could she listen to such foul language, she looked at Gu Mingzhu with a calm expression and didn't say anything after all.

Qian Er inquired about the news that Mrs. Luo insisted that Luo Mao was drunk and forced her, she struggled desperately, but she still couldn't resist Luo Mao's strength, and now she was sad and angry, and asked the queen mother to give her justice, but Luo Mao said that she was drunk and rested in the side hall, and it was Mrs. Luo who gave him a ...... when he was drunk He was ravaged by a young lady of that age, and now he has no face to see people, so he is asking for justice.

This sounds really ridiculous, but after the grandmother from the palace asked to understand, she went back with the words, and no one knew what she would do.

Gu Mingzhu didn't ask in detail, but she took a peeled and crystal clear pomegranate and put it in her mouth, the sweet and sour taste made her frown slightly, and stretched out again: "I have already taken the hereditary title, and there will be no more heavy penalties in the future, at most, it will take the life of Mrs. Luo and exempt Luo Maolang from his official body." ”

An Ning Bo Luo Ziye served as a young eunuch in the palace, so he also found an errand for his son, and served as the palace eunuch Shi, now although An Ning Bo's Mansion has been robbed, Luo Mao is still an official after all, and the Luo family is still an official eunuch, but the Queen of Heaven is afraid that she will not leave them such a way back.

Mama Han didn't know why Gu Mingzhu would say this, obviously Mrs. Luo and Luo Mao were still locked up in Tsinghua Garden.

Gu Mingzhu smiled: "This kind of thing is immoral, since they bite each other, it is natural that they will fight fifty boards each." ”

If something happened at the beginning, the long room and the second room of the Anning Bo Mansion would not have passed the buck to each other, and they would only say that they had misunderstood that there had never been those things, and the palace was afraid that they would not deal with it separately, but they had just taken away the hereditary title, and they would still leave some affection.

After all, who can say such a thing clearly, one less ugly incident can save more face for the court, and the nobles in the upper position do not want such jokes to spread in the noble clan and laugh at the world.

But now that they have admitted it, there is no room for turnaround.

Gu Mingzhu didn't explain much to Mama Han, because Mama Han wouldn't understand, as long as she saw the thoughts of the superiors clearly, it would not be difficult to guess these things.

The master and servant were talking, but Xiaokui came in with a post: "Lady, someone just sent a post, saying that she wanted to invite the lady to a banquet." ”

Since entering the palace on the last birthday, Gu Mingzhu has also received a lot of posts, all of which were sent by people from various noble mansions in Chang'an, all of which were to invite her to the mansion to sit or go to a banquet, and she pushed them all.

After living in your mansion for so many years, she knows the preferences of these ladies and ladies the most, and used to think that Gu Mingzhu was rumored to be willful and rude and ignorant of the rules, so she naturally refused to have more dealings with her, for fear of affecting their reputation, and now they all have the psychology of curiosity and inquiry, and want to invite Gu Mingzhu to inquire about the affairs of Gu Mansion, and want to hear more stories about the mean stepdaughter of the stepmother from her mouth, but she is not interested in dealing with it, so she simply ignores it.

Looking at the post, Gu Mingzhu didn't even have the interest to open it, and waved his hand: "Send someone back." ”

Xiao Kui pouted: "Lady, this is sent by Chen Liu's Palace." ”

Chen Liu's Palace?! Gu Mingzhu was taken aback, staring at the post and frowning, she didn't know King Chen Liu, King Chen Liuwang had never been married, there was no princess in the palace, I don't know why she gave such a lady who had not been out of the cabinet to post.

Gu Mingzhu opened the post and looked at it, and saw that the handwriting on it was clear, it was to invite her to go to a hunting banquet in a few days, and the payment was the seal of Li Nian, the king of Chen Liu.

Gu Mingzhu couldn't help but be stunned, and remembered to ask Xiaokui: "But who has ever gotten asked?" ”

Xiao Kui nodded hurriedly: "I said that I invited a lot of ladies from your house, Cen Liuniang also went, and the second lady and the third lady also invited." ”

Gu Mingzhu put down the post at this time, this is it, Chen Liuwang is only afraid that what he values is the Gu family, so naturally he will invite Gu Mingyue and Gu Mingyu to go.

It's just that the hunting banquet is going to go for a few days, but there are some things she can't wait, and it's time to arrange it.

"I went and invited Qian Er and Steward Zhang." Gu Mingzhu instructed Xiao Kui.

Qian Er and Zhang Qin were invited to the Xiaohua Hall, and Gu Mingzhu invited them to sit through the screen before he spoke: "There was labor and money in charge of the previous matter, and now there is an important matter to ask the two of you to do." ”

"The cart of spices that was sent to the spice shop has been sold, the second lady told me yesterday, they still want to buy a few more carts, you have to take a few people who have to use it, you will go out of the city and rush to Huayuan today, and in two days there will be several caravans of Hu merchants passing through Huayuan Chang'an, you want to stop them and buy all the more than ten carts of Annan Queluo incense in their camel caravan."

"This spice is very rare, I'm afraid that those few Hu Merchants will ask for a sky-high price, and I'm afraid it won't be less than five thousand gold."

The money steward couldn't help but widen his eyes, it costs 10,000 gold to buy these spices, but now they can use very little money and silver in Dongfu, I am afraid that there is not enough gold, where can they have 5,000 gold to buy these spices.

"It's okay, just do as I say, and you can bring these spices back." Gu Mingzhu smiled calmly, her eyes flashed over a different color, and her face became more and more cold.

Qian Er bowed low and agreed, the look of surprise on his face was much less, more awe, since the previous few times, he had already believed in his wife's words, but he did it with one mind, and did not dare to have other thoughts.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu looked at Zhang Qin: "As for Steward Zhang, I want you to be ready, waiting to take over all the shops in Xifu." ”
