Chapter 168: Rebuke
Ye Liang was wearing a wide-sleeved soap-trimmed shirt, with a jade belt hanging down from his waist, and a cloak of gray squirrel skin on his body. The face is delicate and beautiful, like a jade quenching, and the expression of looking at her is faint.
Jin Chao bowed down and saluted, calling "Shizi Ye".
Ye Quan still didn't speak, looked at the brocade box containing the gold anklet in her hand, and asked her after a while: "I only learned yesterday that something happened to the Daxing granary under your father's jurisdiction." He didn't go back to the Changxing Marquis Mansion for a few days, or because his sister was born prematurely, he hurriedly came back from Dali Temple to visit, and happened to hear his father talk about it. Changxinghou felt that this matter was a little inexplicable. How did the Gu family fill the vacancy of 200,000 stone grain, and did it silently.
If they could do it from the beginning, why bother to go to the Changxing Marquis Mansion? Who did they ask in secret?
Ye Quan was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then asked Li Xianhuai to go to Tongzhou to check the granary. The grain of 200,000 stones is not something that the merchants can make up, and the Gu family's food source must be Tongcang or Weicang. And the guards are all garrison handles, and it is impossible to transport grain out of it.
As a result, no news can be found out from Tongzhou, and Tongcang has not been opened in the past few months.
The more this is the case, the more suspicious Ye Yuan feels. Who can do things so airtightly. Gu Deyuan and Gu Dezhao are definitely not good, they don't have such a big power background, and they can transport grain from Tongcang to make up for the shortage.
Lao Changxinghou didn't want him to know about this, but by the time he knew, it was already calm. Changxinghou said that this matter was originally reminded of the Gu family by a staff member named Cao Ziheng, but when Ye Liang went to check this person, he found that he was Gu Jinchao's bookkeeper, and he had no intersection with Sun Shitao before. He immediately thought of Gu Jinchao.
Others thought she was an ordinary boudoir lady, but he knew how powerful Gu Jinchao was.
Prince Rui set a trap for rebellion and waited for the Marquis of Changxing to take the bait, because of Gu Jinchao's reminder, the Marquis of Changxing's Mansion was spared.
Jin Chao looked puzzled and said, "What the prince said, why can't I understand it." ”
Jin Chao didn't hide it from him, and said with a smile: "What to tell you to do, the Marquis of Changxing Mansion is also embarrassed." ”
He will be promoted to Shaoqing of Dali Temple the following year, and he should be very busy now.
Ye Liang stopped talking, and Jin Chao bowed down and said goodbye.
He stopped her: "...... Your cousin's business. He paused, "I want to find a better family for you." But those young Jinshi who watched politics in the six departments were either born in a humble way, or their families were too complicated. "None of them are good.
Jin Chao laughed and laughed: "The prince is too worried, although you are my cousin...... But you still don't have to meddle in my family affairs! "Most of those young two-list jinshi are talented and arrogant, how can they look down on her?
It is conceivable that if he finds what he thinks is suitable, I am afraid that he will coerce and lure others to agree.
Ye Liang saw that she smiled very softly, and his heart did not feel soft.
He said lazily: "Don't worry, if no one marries you in the end...... I'll marry you. The last sentence was as soft as silence.
Gu Jinchao was startled when he heard his words. Can you say this casually, he is too open-mouthed...... You can't laugh at her! She swallowed her anger: "Cousin, don't make fun of me. ”
She called herself cousin again.
Ye Quan seemed to be smiling, and he couldn't see the emotion: "Joke, don't be angry." ”
Gu Jinchao still laughed and swallowed his anger: "My niece understands." ”
He dared to joke about this!
Ye Liang put his hand in his sleeve and watched Gu Jinchao walk away, his gaze did not move for a moment.
The fifth lady took a pair of gold anklets that Gu Jinchao gave to the child, invited her to drink tea, and ate some newly made sesame cakes. After Jin Chao left, she summoned her mother-in-law over and casually instructed her to put the gold anklets into the warehouse.
A little girl with a double bun quietly walked in and whispered a few words in her ear.
The fifth lady's face changed drastically, and she asked, "No one else saw it, right?" ”
The little girl whispered: "On the terrazzo-paved path from the West Cross Courtyard to Yanxiu Hall, no one saw it. ”
She forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart and whispered: "The prince is talking to Mrs. Hou in the east, you go and call the prince in for me!" ”
She can't sit idly by and ignore this matter anymore, with Ye Quan's reckless nature, don't do anything to shame the two families! When the time comes, she won't be able to manage it if she wants to!
When Ye Liang first stepped into the western room, he was still absent-minded.
The fifth lady was angry: "Just now I said that you went out for a walk, what did you do, you explained it to me clearly!" ”
Ye Liang looked at the pale face of the eldest sister who had not recovered after premature birth, and paused and did not speak.
The fifth lady was so angry that her tone trembled: "You have grown up since you were a child...... It's all such a temperament! When have we ever blamed you and restrained you? If you don't like to read, your grandfather won't force you to read four books. He is not in good health but likes to run around, so what did his grandfather say. But this matter is not just your business, this is also the business of the Changxing Hou family and the Gu family...... No matter how much you like that Gu Jinchao, it's not okay, even if she has such a bad reputation, she still meets you behind her back, it can be seen that she is not a virtuous woman. With her identity and virtue, she can be worthy of the identity of the son of the Hou family of Changxing! ”
The eldest sister had never been so tough on him, but a trace of anger rose in Ye Quan's heart.
His mother, Gao, also said this to him. She said: Gu Jinchao is not enough to be a concubine for him!
They just look down on her so much, and value the prosperity of the Marquis of Changxing so much?
They didn't know at all that if it weren't for Gu Jinchao, the Marquis of Changxing's Mansion might have turned into ashes at this time.
Ye Quan said lightly: "Eldest sister, I am now a Dali Temple Cheng of the fifth grade." ”
The fifth lady couldn't help sneering: "You are the Dali Temple, I can't control you, right?" Even if you enter the cabinet to pay respects, that's my brother! ”
She had a lot of complaints about Gu Jinchao in her heart, last time Feng said that Gu Jinchao wanted Gu Jinchao to stand up to Gu Pity's fault, because of her character, she couldn't stand it, but she didn't say anything. Even if Ye Liang is wrong, she is a girl's family, and she is too indecent!
Ye Quan shook his head and said to the fifth lady, "Eldest sister, I know what I'm doing. And there are some things that you can't say anything. "The glory of the Changxing Hou family comes from the courage and skill of my father and grandfather. But for him, he doesn't like to fight and kill, he prefers to kill invisibly, he has a cold heart, and he can better grasp the minds of others.
He was born to fit these intrigues and intrigues.
Ye Liang said lightly: "And what I want, others can't stop it." If I really want to marry her, why is it difficult to be a cousin? Believe it or not, as long as I bring it up, Old Lady Gu will send people to me. I just need to fabricate an identity for her at will, and I can let her marry me in style. I didn't do it because I had any scruples...... I just don't want to! ”
The fifth lady was so angry with him that she couldn't speak.
Of course, she knew exactly what kind of person Feng was. For the sake of Gu Lian's family, she doesn't even distinguish between right and wrong. This woman is shallow-eyed, and she only has the prosperity of the Gu family in her heart. She could have done that!
“…… You don't care about the Changxing Hou family? Even if you don't listen to the eldest sister, what about your mother and father, where do you put them, and you want the century-old foundation of the Changxing Hou family to be destroyed in your hands? ”
Ye Liang sneered instead: "If you really follow what you say, the Changxing Marquis Mansion will be destroyed now." He took the glass flower bottle on the kang table and played with it, and said leisurely, "Eldest sister, you are weak now, you have to rest." I'll come back to see you tomorrow. ”
"I've never heard these words......"
The glazed flower bottle was placed on the high table at random, and Ye Liang had already walked out of the door.
The fifth lady thought about what he had just said, and couldn't stop being frightened, but she felt powerless.
The fifth lady muttered, "With his temperament, he will definitely cause a big disaster in the future...... It's lawless! ”
She felt that the Marquis of Changxing's doting on Ye Liang for so many years was really wrong.
Now that he is still fledgling, he dares not to listen to her persuasion. When he completely controls the Changxing Hou family, who can say a word about him?
Li Xianhuai, who was guarding outside, put a cloak on him, and Ye Quan didn't say a word. Why was Gu Jinchao insulted by others in vain, every time the two met, they were invited by themselves. She is such a good person, why does everyone criticize her. My eldest sister thinks so, what about others?
Thinking of the faint smile on Gu Jinchao's face, who never seemed to be disturbed by these things, he felt faintly uncomfortable in his heart.
If you don't get used to it completely and are indifferent, how can you not care?
At the beginning, the Gu family also wanted to marry her to Wang Zan and others...... She is also the daughter of the Gu family, look at how Gu Lian raises her, and then look at her. These people are too biased.
Even if he really wants to marry Gu Jinchao, what he wants to do, why should others put his beak in it!
Could it be that if he doesn't marry a noble girl from a family, the Changxing Hou family will decline?
Li Xianhuai whispered beside him: "Lord Shizi, the case of Zhang Ling, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, has been clarified. At that time, more than 30 people on the canal merchant ship were not intercepted and killed by bandits, but the ship's merchants were found trafficking in illicit salt, and the whole ship was wiped out. Master Zhang took a hundred taels of gold from the smuggler and fabricated evidence to suppress the matter......"
Ye Liang said coldly: "He is a person under Wang Xuanfan, and the most unjust cases are official cuts." …… That's not enough. Since he colluded with the smuggler of salt, he must have been involved in the transportation and trading of smuggled salt, you should investigate it carefully, if you can find him colluding with the smuggler to sell smuggled salt, so that he will not have the power to turn over. ”
No one dared to help him suppress the crime of trafficking illicit salt.
Chen Xianhuai responded yes, 1152
