Chapter 108: The Parents' Short (4)

Qi Maosheng pursed his lips and sneered disapprovingly.

Ding Hanzhi thought that he, like Qi Xiao, was laughing at Zuo Xiaoyu for "wanting beauties, not rivers and mountains", and reminded him: "Master, the imperial concubine Gu has so far participated in the deployment of grain, horses and grass on behalf of Kunning Palace. ”

Qi Maosheng's eyes were as cold as ice: "Is the information reliable?" ”

Ding Hanzhi nodded affirmatively: "After the master mentioned the relationship between Mi Ji and the imperial concubine to me last time, I found out when I was in Cha Mi Ji. He was extremely greedy for ink every year in the transfer envoy, and he was once horrified by the imperial history, but the queen mother finally stayed in the middle and did not send it, and then no one squeaked in the temple anymore. I checked the income and expenditure accounts of the Mi family in recent years, although it is not cold, but it is not related to luxury. Later, I accidentally discovered that Mi Ji's personal servant had an account in the prosperous money village, and the money in this account was closely related to the household department, especially on the eve of the war between the Liang Ting Governor's Mansion and Wujun City, coupled with the Empress Dowager's obscure attitude towards the Gu family in recent years, we thought about it. Later, after careful scrutiny, I found out. ”

Qi Maosheng's eyes flickered.

Ding Hanzhi said: "And I just got a news that the Lian family of Hainan County is about to marry the Mi family." ”

Qi Maosheng was slightly stunned: "Who and whom?" ”

Ding Hanzhi said: "There is a girl named Lian Fanghua and Mi Ji in the Lian family in Hainan County. ”

Mi Ji, it turned out to be Mi Ji, who was going to marry the Lian family, Gu Chaorong's most trusted person was going to get married, what would Gu Chaorong's expression be when he found out?

Qi Maosheng was really curious.

Ding Hanzhi added: "It seems to be the thread of the needle that the Fang family threaded in it. ”

Qi Maosheng pondered for a long time: "Are there any new trends in Shengjing?" ”

Ding Hanzhi thought about it for a while and said, "The prince has newly accepted a female official surnamed Yu as a widow. ”

The crown prince took a new concubine......

Qi Maosheng's dark eyes shone coldly like jewels, and he said coldly: "This is reasonable." ”

Ding Hanzhi didn't dare to ask each other, and quietly waited for Qi Maosheng to speak.

Qi Maosheng's eyes were cold: "The last time I went to Beijing to meet the emperor, it was a little strange, I am in my forties, but my eyes are as clear as spring water. ****”

Ding Hanzhi's body was shocked: "Could it be ...... Emperor. What's wrong? ”

Qi Maosheng nodded: "If my guess is right, the emperor is either not mentally open or unable to handle court affairs normally." ”

It's a cold day. A few drops of sweat broke out on Ding Hanzhi's forehead: "This makes sense." ”

"That's why the Queen Mother allowed the Gu family to live." Qi Maosheng's eyes were like eagles, "And he also accompanies the Gu family's ability to deal with government affairs." In case she drives west, the emperor will not be overshadowed by the people of the Fang family. There is even the possibility of a Zen position. ”

"Mother and son are mother and child." Ding Hanzhi also figured out the joints, "But she was afraid that the Gu family would have the movement of the court after she sat down, and posed a threat to the other party's family, so she didn't let the Gu family give birth...... Really, it's a lot of scheming! ”

Qi Maosheng thought of what Gu Xiyan had told her that "my sister had been engaged to marry Mi Ji", and he sneered a few times: "It's a pity that the Queen Mother has been in power for too long, and she forgot it, she is no matter how well-behaved she is." You don't let her be fed, and when she's hungry, she'll come back and bite her master. ”

Ding Hanzhi was excited by this possible shock: "In the entire Xizhao Dynasty, only Zuo Xiaoyu saw the strange ......"

Qi Maosheng pursed his mouth again. said coldly: "I don't know if he sees it, but I know that if Gu doesn't understand this truth in his heart and does something to add to it, her days will come to an end." ”

Ding Hanzhi listened to Qi Maosheng's tone, as if he was not just lamenting the fate of the Gu family, and said with a smile: "Does the master have any plans?" ”

Qi Maosheng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and was silent for a long time. "You've reminded me." ”

Ding Hanzhi listened quietly and with bated breath.

"What is the relationship between the imperial concubine and the family?"

Ding Hanzhi groaned: "Gu Baozhang has married a third-room lady, the imperial concubine was born to the eldest lady, and she has a sister and a brother, all of whom are half-brothers. The younger sister who married Zuo Xiaoyu heard that she was very naughty since she was a child, and she was sent to her hometown in Shuzhou, Jiangnan at the age of four or five, and only entered Beijing last year. The only younger brother lives in his ancestral house outside Jiangnan all the year round. \\\\\\ said that he was studying at Songqi Academy. He hesitated. continued: "Gu Baozhang is a person...... Likes to play with prostitutes. It is said that his second wife, Lian, died because of this. ”

A very strange expression flashed on Qi Maosheng's face, as if he was a little sad and a little surprised. Ding Hanzhi couldn't be sure what he meant.

Although the Lian family is the heir of the Lian family in Hainan County, because she is an only daughter, the Lian family was inherited by her cousin Lian Xiong after she got married...... When Lian died, there was no one who came to mourn at home. ”

Qi Maosheng lowered his eyes, and his fingers trembled slightly.

"What is this for?" Ding Hanzhi said with a smile, "But I'm worried that Zuo Xiaoyu and the Gu clan will join forces......"

Qi Maosheng shook his head.

Originally, I wanted to send a message to Gu Chaorong, so that she knew that her sister was safe and sound, and Xiyan would also have a thought in the future, but now it seems that there is no need!

He is a person who can afford to let go, since he doesn't bother to think about it from this aspect, his thoughts have turned to other places: "**Feng only brought a thousand horses, and Shi Jun has 15,000 people in his hands, and it is a victory if he can leave a third of the horses, we have to discuss the next trend now." ”

Dingzhihan was very accustomed to Qi Maosheng's leapfrogging thinking, and he said calmly: "What do you mean? ”

Qi Maosheng pondered for a while: "We must not give up in Gaochang, but it is not a matter to always send troops to garrison. Not only did we have to be stretched thin in the deployment of troops, but it also went against our original intention of conquering Gaochang. Of course, the best way is to raze the raze, but the few people I have taken a fancy to me before are too calm and not suitable for the current situation. ”

Dingzhihan completely agreed with Qi Maosheng's opinion: "If Shi Jun's men and horses enter Meizhou and conquer Shihe Town, unless we meet with the court soldiers, we will have to withdraw from Jiangzhong County......"

Qi Maosheng smiled: "So now I want you to do three things. ”

Dingzhihan replied respectfully "yes".

"First. Send someone to Wujun City to spread the situation of Zuo Xiaoyudi. instigated the people of the Five Monarchs City to send troops in advance; second, send people to Shengjing, and let our local people propose appeasement at the court meeting; Third. Try to get in touch with the imperial concubine. ”

"Lift both." Dingzhi Han's eyes lit up: "It's best to let Wujun City send troops to Horseshoe Bay and arrive in Shengjing together with Shi Jun's siege." ”

Qi Maosheng nodded: "We have the capital to talk to the Queen Mother about appeasement." ”

"Just the imperial concubine?"

Qi Maosheng groaned: "Find a way to remind her, don't let her lose her life by acting rashly." It's better for her to be in the inner court than to suddenly pop up one day with someone we don't know at all. ”

Xizhao's imperial concubine Niangniang Gu's? The woman who is tougher than a man? Do we understand?

Dingzhihan didn't dare to ask.

He was afraid that Qi Maosheng would have some other arrangements in private. got up and nodded, and said, "Master, it's October 24 today, and if you don't wait for someone, I'll do it!" ”

Qi Maosheng nodded.

The war is about to break out, who is fast. The situation is in someone's favor.

"Which ......" Dingzhihan had just walked to the door, but he heard Qi Maosheng behind him suddenly hesitate to say.

He turned around and stood up: "What else does the master command?" ”

Qi Maosheng hesitated for a long time: "I heard that your wife was not in good health some time ago. What's going on now? ”

Dingzhihan sighed in his heart, but had to answer: "It's much better." ”

"Is it the illness that asked Gao Jinghong to come and see?"

Dingzhihan didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately responded with a "yes", and then closed his mouth tightly, without any intention of discussing the matter.

But Qi Maosheng didn't give up: "She's still in the spring, right?" ”

"Yes." Ding Zhihan replied helplessly.

Qi Maosheng nodded: "Then you go and do something!" ”

The corners of Dingzhihan's mouth twitched slightly, and in the end he didn't say anything. Silently left Xiao Aoxuan.

After Dingzhihan left, Qi Mao gave birth to Kang, paced in the cold room for a long time, and shouted "Siping".

Siping trotted lightly into the house.

Qi Maosheng stood for a long time: "You find out the four ginseng fruits sent by Yongzhou, I will be useful at night." ”

Siping raised the corner of his eyes and secretly peeked at Qi Maosheng, and found that his face was very solemn. Siping cautiously answered "yes".

"And. Call the third master. ”

Siping looked at Qi Maosheng with the corner of his eye.

Qi Maosheng frowned.

He was even more careful. Respectfully answered "yes".

"Call Gong Tao to me too." Qi Maosheng commanded.

"Yes." Siping stood with his hands down.

Qi Maosheng's brows furrowed even tighter: "Forget it, you call Gong Tao for me." The third master, I'll go there by myself. ”

Siping lowered his eyebrows and looked at him: "Yes, master." ”

Unlike Qi Maosheng's busy side, Gu Xiyan spent an afternoon with Liu Meier in a relaxed and happy mood, and she even had the feeling of returning to high school and her good classmates to do manual work at home during the holidays. So when he was holding the lamp at night and made an excuse to go to those grandmothers to learn the rules, Gu Xiyan also responded absentmindedly.

She was embroidering a branch.

Using a technique taught to her by Liu Mei'er, she carefully outlined the outline of the branch.

Each stitch should be embroidered to the same size, as if the stitch was a little bigger.

Gu Xiyan picked up the embroidered bandage and leaned over to the glass lamp to watch carefully.

It would be nice to have electric lights!

She sighed, rubbed her eyes, and snuggled up to the big pillow behind her a little helplessly.

In fact, there is a hardship in passing through life, and the quality of life has been reduced a lot...... Although she was born in the market in modern times, it is much more convenient than her current life. For example, the problem of bathing, and the problem of going to the toilet...... The most important thing is the issue of monthly leave.

It seems like I haven't had a monthly leave for a long time.

When Qi Maosheng came in, he saw Gu Xiyan's slender brows frowning slightly, her pink and white soft lips pouting slightly, wearing a swollen cotton shirt and cotton pants, blinking innocently like a puppy with a pair of beautiful big eyes staring blankly at the glass lampshade on the small table.
