Chapter 424: Horror (Part 2)
When she woke up again, Zheng Yu was no longer there, she was lying in the room, and the maid next to her hurriedly stepped forward: "The lady is awake?" Let the medic come in. ”
Zheng Yuan didn't care about this, and grabbed her: "What about Erlangjun?" Where did he go? ”
The maidservant said: "Erlangjun has already gone to Lizhuang, saying that he wants to meet Cui Jialangjun and let the lady rest for a good time." ”
Zheng Yuan's tense heartstrings loosened a little, after all, she had some expectations, and she couldn't say that Zheng Yu saw her like this and went to help her beg Cui Lin, so that she didn't have to marry Cui Wei, and let the Cui family agree to her marriage with Cui Lin.
She thought about the servant girl and nodded: "Go and ask the medical officer to come in, I have something to command." ”
When Zheng Yu returned to the house in the afternoon, the medical officer prescribed a prescription and handed it to the maidservant, and went to reply to Zheng Yu, saying that Zheng Yuan was too worried and sad, and he should take care of it.
Zheng Yu didn't speak, just nodded and asked the medical officer to go out, and then went to Zheng Yuan's room.
Through the screen, Zheng Yu's voice was extremely cold, and it was even more frightening than before: "Yuan Niang, you don't have to toss anymore, you will go back to Xingyang with me tomorrow, no matter what method you use, it is useless, if you are sick, I will have someone prepare a carriage and drag you all the way to the clan, if there is any mistake, I will explain to the elders of the clan!" ”
Zheng Yuan sat up in shock: "Second brother, why do you have to do this?" ”
Zheng Yu said coldly: "Do you know what Cui Lin told me?" If you don't know, you know what you did in Chang'an! ”
Zheng Yuan stammered for a while, wanting to defend a few words, but was interrupted by Zheng Yu, his voice was full of anger and shame: "I can't imagine that my Zheng family has been passed down for hundreds of years, and I don't dare to say that it has been passed down through the ages, but it is also a scholarly family, how can I teach such a shameless lady, if I let the elders in the clan know, I am afraid that it will be heartbroken!" ”
"I know that women in the world will inevitably have some scheming methods, but you can't even ignore shame, you can not be decent, but you can't follow you up and down to lose face, do you think you don't know about those unworthy means Cui Wulang? He told me clearly today that if it weren't for the relationship between the two races, how could you still stay here? ”
"You think you know him, but you never know how cold-hearted he is, like this to others, and to you, but you still dare to provoke his bottom line again and again in the name of the clan!"
The more he spoke, the more angry he became, and he wanted to vent his humiliation when he heard this when he left the village, "Fortunately, it has not ruined the major affairs in the clan, if the relationship between the Cui and Zheng families is ruined by you for your own selfishness, there is no need for the Cui family to do it, I will definitely send you to the nunnery first, and you will not be allowed to come out again for the rest of your life!" ”
Zheng Yuan instantly withered, leaned softly on the couch, and cried out with her face covered for a long time, crying hoarsely.
The carriage of the Zheng family left Chang'an early the next morning and went to Xingyang.
It's just that these Gu Mingzhu don't know, she is facing the Duchess of Yanguo who is full of stiff smiling faces.
"County lord, I don't know if I have seen the dowry list sent to the house, it was my negligence before, and I almost made a joke, this time I invited the elders of the clan to see it, if the county lord sees that there is anything wrong, just tell me, I will go back and add it."
She tried her best to make herself look flattering, and her tone was clearly low, hoping that Gu Mingzhu would be relieved.
Gu Mingzhu smiled: "Thank you, Duchess Yanguo, I have seen the dowry list, and it is very well arranged." ”
Not only is it proper, it is simply rich, the previous false forty-eight dowry gifts have become full, not only the three sacrifices and six gifts are complete, but also a lot of valuables, I am afraid that a lot of money and silver have been spent.
Duchess Yan Guo didn't care about these things, and after listening to Gu Mingzhu's words, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and hurriedly said: "What is the county lord talking about, it should have been lively and lively." ”
She said and glanced at Gu Mingzhu again: "It's just the one thing that the county lord said before."
Gu Mingzhu smiled and looked at her: "How?" Are all the ships in Siyang out of service? ”
Duchess Yan Guo didn't expect her to be so straightforward, and stammered for a while before nodding: "Yes, they have all stopped at the dock, and without the orders of the county lord, they dare not anchor again." ”
She didn't hate it in her heart, she licked her face and went to the Taishi Mansion again, and she didn't dare to tell Mrs. Guo San that it was because the Queen of Heaven noticed it, for fear that there would be another charge of communicating news privately in the future, so she had to deduce that something had happened to the ship, and there was no way to transport ore in the short term.
This time, not only did he lose a large amount of money, but he was also afraid that he had formed a relationship with Liang Zi of the Taishi Mansion, and he didn't know what to do in the future.
But Yan Guogong told her that it was important to escape this catastrophe first, and finding a way to stabilize the queen of heaven and Gu Mingzhu was the most important.
It's just that she is not an insightful person after all, and she has already shown an unwilling look between her eyebrows.
Gu Mingzhu saw it clearly, and raised his eyebrows: "Why, the house must be extremely reluctant." ”
Duchess Yan Guo was trembling by her, and when she came back to her senses, she hurriedly shook her head: "No, no, never dare." ”
"Not only Siyang, Suzhou, Yongcheng, Changzhou, these places must be no stranger to Mrs., every month from these docks is not less than dozens of ships, I don't know how many private goods have been transported to Luoyang, and even north to Yanzhou, I am afraid that it will be sent to Goryeo by land."
This sentence was tantamount to a thunderbolt, which blew up the soul of the Duchess of Yanguo, and she couldn't open her mouth for a long time.
Gu Mingzhu said that these places are all wharves with private salt or shady private transportation, if the ship company earns only a small amount of hard money by pulling goods seriously, the Yanguo Mansion has long been not satisfied with that, all these years have made a lot of money by doing these things, and even they helped transport copper and iron ore and private salt to Goryeo and Nanzhao, which is the most fatal.
After all, they underestimated Gu Mingzhu, she knew far more than Siyang!
She said in a trembling voice: "County Lord, what does County Lord mean by this?" Please also ask the county lord to make it clear"
Gu Mingzhu's smile turned cold: "Madame understands in her heart, if she really wants to settle the accounts one by one, I am afraid that the lives of the people in the Yanguo Mansion will not be enough to offset the crime, and the smuggling of copper, iron, and salt will be connected to foreign countries, and these two cases alone will be enough to ask for beheading." ”
She watched the Duchess of Yan Guo trembling her body, leaning on a few with a dejected face, staring at herself, slowly taking a bite of tea and soup, and then said: "It's just that now the house has made a marriage with my fourth sister, and it can be regarded as a family."
