Old Madam Gu and the Liu family were stunned, and looked at Gu Mingzhu together.

Gu Mingzhu straightened her dress, and said to the old lady Gu who was at the table: "Qi Shanggong was ordered by the queen of heaven to count the wealth of the East Mansion for me, and the old lady and Mrs. Ping still went out with me to greet her." ”

By the order of the Queen of Heaven! Count the wealth of the East Mansion!

Old Madam Gu's face instantly turned pale and uncertain, staring at Gu Mingzhu deadly, opening her mouth wide for a long time before she squeezed out a sentence: "You, what have you done?" ”

Gu Mingzhu took the lead, his sleeves fluttered away, and he only dropped a sentence: "It's just to take back what belongs to me." ”

Qi Shanggong was invited into the Xifu Big Flower Hall.

She is the fifth rank Shang Palace in the palace, and she is the deputy envoy of the fourth rank Zhou Shang Palace, this time she came to the General's Mansion on the order of the Queen of Heaven to help Gu Mingzhu count the property left by the eldest princess of Xuanyang.

Dressed in a scarlet round-necked egret female official costume, she sat in the big flower hall and ate tea soup, but her expression was a little uneasy. She already knew about the fact that the old lady of the Gu family and the second room of the Gu family had sold spices into the palace under false pretenses, and the female officials of the Shanggong Bureau were all taken aback, they never expected that such a thing would happen in the General's Mansion.

Before she came, the queen of heaven ordered her, this time she had to find out what was going on in the hussar general's mansion, how could these things happen, did anyone really dare to covet the family wealth left by the eldest princess, and also did something to deceive the palace, no matter what, no bad rumors can be spread, after all, this time it is a matter of the royal family.

"Qi Shang Palace," Gu Mingzhu brought Gu Mingyu and Gu Mingli to greet Qi Shang Palace, and the Liu family followed far behind and bowed.

Qi Shanggong glanced at it and was a little surprised, he couldn't imagine that there were only a few young ladies left in the Gu family now, and there was not even one person in charge of the house.

When she heard that someone from the palace wanted to help her count her family wealth, Mrs. Gu held her head and leaned on the maidservant and cried out in pain, saying that she was sick again, and she was afraid that she would not be able to go out to see Qi Shang Palace, so she asked her to send Qi Shang Palace back.

Gu Mingzhu was not annoyed, she came out with Mingyu Mingli to greet her, and said to Qi Shanggong with a smile: "The old lady just felt that her body was not very good, and she went back to the room to lie down, but those account books and deeds are still in the courtyard over there, I don't know ...... Shanggong."

Qi Shanggong got up decisively: "Naturally, I have to face the account books and deeds, since it is inconvenient for the old lady to come, it is also appropriate for me to go to the old lady to say goodbye." ”

Unexpectedly, Shang Gong from the palace had such a persistent attitude, and Liu's heart sank, and he suddenly became uneasy.

She used to think that as long as Mrs. Gu was well, she would be able to preside over the feed, as long as she was valued by Mrs. Gu, she was not afraid of what Gu Mingzhu would do, and Mingli could also take the opportunity to say a good family affair, and she didn't have to count on others anymore, but now it seems that it is not such a simple thing, Gu Mingzhu is only afraid that she has a plan.

Her steps became slower and slower, she thought about it quickly in her heart, her face became more and more ugly, she called the maidservant to explain a few words to Gu Mingli, and then quietly retreated.

In the Songshou Courtyard, Mrs. Gu was lying on the couch and panting with anger, patting the couch again and again, and said hoarsely: "I know that little slut...... Like her mother...... It's a curse ......."

Finally, her illness got better, and she was able to speak, so she did not hesitate to take Gu Mingzhu's seal by name, as long as she had that seal, all the money in Dongfu would really be hers.

Now there is no Luo clan in front of him, Da Lang is not in the mansion, even Erlang and Mao are also locked up in the yamen prison cell, and the situation in the mansion is also known to everyone, which is the best reason, there is no better time than this, Gu Mingzhu just can't obey.

Seeing that she was about to succeed, but what she never expected was that Gu Mingzhu entered the palace to ask the queen of heaven to come forward and count her family wealth!

No, she can't be allowed to succeed, those are the Gu family's wealth, they are all hers, and they must not be handed over to Gu Mingzhu again!

Old Madam Gu sat up abruptly and called Mama Deng: "Let people take the box and account book out of the yard and hide them!" ”

She said it was difficult, and it took a while for Mama Deng to understand, so she hurriedly took out the red sandalwood box and the account books from the cage, hurriedly wrapped them together, called the little maid of her cronies, and stuffed her to explain a few words, and the little maid hurriedly went out with the burden.

Watching the little maid walk away, Old Lady Gu let out a breath, and lay down on the couch with a little peace of mind.

Without the account books and deeds, she wanted to see how she could help Gu Mingzhu clear up this bad account even if someone came to the palace.

When the little maid came in and spread the news that Qi Shang Palace was coming, Old Madam Gu looked weak and powerless, and nodded to Mama Deng, and Mama Deng went to invite Qi Shanggong and Gu Mingzhu, Gu Mingyu, and Gu Mingli sisters in.

"The old lady is well." Qi Shanggong was thoughtful for a few days, and greeted Old Madam Gu with a smile.

Old Madam Gu nodded, held Mama Deng's hand and sat up, Mama Deng smiled and said, "Forgive Shanggong, the old lady has been very sick these days, she can't speak, she can only listen to others." ”

Qi Shanggong looked at Old Madam Gu's weak appearance, and smiled lightly: "It's okay, I am here today to help count the family wealth left by the eldest princess, and it is the same if you have anything to ask." ”

She looked at Mama Deng: "I don't know where the account books in the house and the deed on the Zhuangzi shop in the fields of Dongfu are located?" Can I get a pair? ”

Mama Deng quickly glanced at Old Madam Gu, and said in a low voice: "These days, the eldest lady is in charge, and the account books are afraid that they are in the hands of the eldest lady, and the deed of the East Mansion is ...... But I've never seen it before, isn't it in Dongfu? ”

She pushed it clean and refused to hand over anything.

Qi Shanggong frowned, sat down on the couch, and took the tea soup served by the maidservant.

Gu Mingzhu laughed: "It turns out that the account book is not here with the old lady, not even the deed, could it be that I made a mistake?" But what was it that was brought out of this courtyard? ”

She nodded to Ah Bi, Ah Bi turned around and went out the door, and after a while, she came in with a bag and put it in front of Old Madam Gu and Qi Shang Palace.

Old Madam Gu, who was still weak, sat up in shock when she saw the burden on the ground, her hands trembled and she could barely support her body, and even Mama Deng on the side was so frightened that she took two steps back, her face turned pale.

Then, isn't that the burden she asked the little maid to take out and hide?

Gu Mingzhu looked at the frightened faces of Mrs. Gu and Mama Deng, and her smile deepened a little, she didn't do nothing in the past few days when she took care of Xifu, at least there were already people in the courtyards everywhere, and this burden was stopped not long after leaving the courtyard gate, so naturally it couldn't be as the old lady wanted.
