Chapter 107: Clues
After the Jin Dynasty returned to Qidongpan, he asked his mother-in-law to find a glass bottle, and she personally washed the osmanthus, and a layer of frosting and a layer of osmanthus were covered and pickled. He also commanded him to keep it in a cool place away from light.
This jar of osmanthus nectar was brewed and left here for my grandmother, who was not in good health lately and always coughed.
She is going to go back home the day after tomorrow, the Gu family not only has a Gu Lan, but also a so-called Taoist master, if she doesn't go back to look at it, I'm afraid that someone on the other side will turn the sky upside down, and her father won't care.
She was right, she had just been gone for two days, and the Qingxu Daoist began to lobby Gu Dezhao to donate silver to the Taoist temple to repair the Sanqing Pavilion, Gu Dezhao hesitated for a few days, but decided to donate four thousand taels to enter. When this matter reached Xu's mother's ears, she was very anxious, four thousand taels is not a small amount, it is thirty percent of the Gu family's annual income! It's not a big deal for the lord to spend money, but if you want to donate silver, a few hundred taels is a lot, where to take so much!
It's just that Gu Jinchao is not at home, she is a subordinate, can she manage the master's affairs. The eldest young master went to the Yu family's clan study, and the second lady never asked about these things, and she couldn't find someone to persuade her. I can only ask someone to bring a letter to Gu Jinchao and ask her to come back quickly.
She was very angry after reading the letter, and her father didn't have anyone to rely on her to understand now, but money wasn't spent like this! Four thousand taels of silver is not a small amount, so if the Qingxu Daoist asked him to donate it, he would donate it? What's going on with him, there are a lot of nobles and nobles who have good friends with this Qingxu Dao chief, no one picks the big head, and his father has no title, and his official position is average, so it's too eye-catching!
She told her grandmother about donating money and would go back tomorrow.
Ji Wu sighed when he talked about Gu Dezhao: "...... I know it's an unbearable thing! You don't have to worry, I'll send someone to send you tomorrow, if there is a shortage of money, I still have a money and a village in Shi'an, I'll tell them, you can go and pay the silver......"
Jin Chao held Ji Wu's hand and said, "Your silver is not for nothing, don't worry, I know what to do." "My grandmother has always been strict about the rules and regulations, and everyone has to follow the rules, but she has never been like this in front of her, and she is very partial to her.
Jin Chao and Ji Wu talked about making osmanthus nectar for her, and Song's mother said: "...... The second young master is back, and he has come to see you. ”
Ji Wu knew that it was the matter of the Lu Silk Village in Xianghe, so he let Ji Yao in.
Ji Yao was wearing a half-new Hangzhou silk shirt, dusty, and his handsome face was a little tired. He first invited An, and then greeted Jin Chao before saying, "...... Grandmother, a few stewards of Lusilk Village can't stay, and I have already punished them and thrown them all to Hebei. ”
Ji Wu frowned, Ji Yao has always been gentle to others, he is so ruthless, and he doesn't know what those people in Lu Silk Village have done.
Jin Chao saw that they were going to discuss business matters, and she couldn't listen to them, so she retired first.
Walking on the road, I also heard Ji Yao's faint chilling voice: "...... They colluded with the rogues in Guizhou to help a man surnamed Xiao deliver a letter to Prince Rui. Not long ago, they were escorting a batch of goods, they didn't know what was inside, and the things had already been shipped out...... Someone told me that it was full of weapons, and they took 30% of the money in it. I have always told them that these things must not be touched, and they should be so deaf and deaf......"
When Jin Chao heard him say that his surname was Xiao, his heart was sighing again, and his steps couldn't help but slow down a lot, wanting to hear more about what was going on.
Ji Wu's voice was also cold: "We are businessmen, and we are the most taboo to be involved in these things." Not to mention anything else, those stewards should never think of returning to Yanjing! You don't care about this matter, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out, just send the shopkeeper Ge to do it......"
They no longer talk about the delivery of weapons.
Jin Chao was a little disappointed, but it was not good to go in and ask again. Walking slowly along the stone path, she suddenly remembered something!
Prince Rui ...... She had seen Prince Rui in her previous life! was in Chen Yanyun's study, when she served tea to Chen Yanyun, and Prince Rui was talking to Chen Yanyun about the affairs of the court.
She remembered that Prince Rui had brought a staff member...... That staff member is surnamed Xiao!
No wonder she felt that Mr. Xiao was familiar, because he had seen him himself when he was a member of Prince Rui's staff!
But the staff member's surname is Xiao, but he is not called Xiao Qishan, and she heard Prince Rui call him 'Xiao You'. Qishan is naturally a table word, I don't know if Xiao Qishan's real name is Xiao You.
Listen to what Guillaut and his grandmother said, that is...... Now Xiao Qishan has been in contact with Prince Rui, and began to contact the Liukou in Guizhou to send weapons over. What the hell are they sending these things for?
When Jin Chao thought of this, he felt a little chill in his heart. Prince Rui and Chen Yanyun are from the same faction, and they are both under Zhang Julian's command. And Ye Quan's father was killed by Prince Rui, and after Prince Rui's death, Zhang Julian implemented many repressive measures against the Changxing Hou family, forcing Ye Quan's grandfather, Changxing Hou Lao Hou to death.
Later, Ye Liang turned over, no one knew how he turned over, and Changxing became Dali Siqing after three months of death. From that time on, the Ye family slowly recovered, and when Ye Liang held the military power and became the secretary of the military department. Zhang Julian died, and Ye Jiacai, the Chen family, and Prince Rui stood together.
If you want to say that Ye Limit hates the Chen family, it can only be said that it is average, and it has not reached the point of wanting to bring down the Chen family. It's true that he hates Prince Rui. He designed to destroy Prince Rui, and let him behead all over the house, and Prince Rui was personally executed by him, and I heard that it was exactly 4,000 knives......
In other words, in fact, Mr. Xiao took refuge in Prince Rui and betrayed the Changxing Hou family. Why did Xiao Qishan betray the Ye family?
Jin Chao had a faint guess in her heart, and she was already sixty percent sure. No wonder Ye Quan's personality changed greatly later, because of his master's rebellion, which led to the death of his father and grandfather, I am afraid he hated it very much in his heart......
Qingpu saw that Jin Chao was silent all the way, as if she was thinking about something, she whispered: "The eldest lady is thinking about the master's business, don't worry too much, we can always think of a way......"
Jin Chao smiled and shook his head. It is already the beginning of August, and on September 13, Mu Zong died, and the court was in turmoil, and these bloody storms were about to come. Compared to what the four thousand taels are, she doesn't know whether to help Ye Limit or not, after all, what is the relationship between her and Ye Limit, Xiao Qishan is his master, why should Ye Limit listen to her......
Judging from his previous life, my father did not make friends with ministers on weekdays, so there was no obvious factional distinction, which was disadvantageous, but when it was so turbulent, the benefits of his approach came. So later, although my father was not promoted, he did not encounter any major incidents.
If this life is more stable, the Gu family should be fine. I just don't know what to do about Ye Yuan.
Jin Chao looked at a holly in front of him, thoughtful.
……
Ji Yao and Ji Wu talked about Lu Silk Village and were about to leave. Ji Wu asked him to sit for a while longer, and told Song's mother to close the door, and she personally poured tea for Ji Yao.
Every time Ji Wu wants to talk to him about something serious, that's what it looks like.
Ji Yao thought of the fact that he accompanied Gu Jinchao to Xianghe Grange a few days ago, and guessed that Ji Wu should just want to say this, so he was silent.
Ji Wu looked at him pursing his lips, looking a little resistant and stubborn. But he smiled: "...... When you were a child, you didn't like to eat sweet and greasy things, and when I had to feed you bird's nest, you looked like this. Why are you so big, you don't know how to hide your emotions, you deal with others like this, but you will suffer. ”
Guillaut didn't speak.
Ji Wu sighed and said, "In all fairness, do you really hate your cousin?" I'm afraid in your heart, it's not your cousin who you don't like, it's me, an old woman! You think I've always been against you, I'll give you whatever you don't like to eat, you don't like business, I just leave all the family business to you. If I asked you to propose marriage to your cousin, you would be even more reluctant in your heart......"
Ji Yao said in a low voice: "Grandmother thinks too much, this is nothing." ”
Ji Wu laughed: "...... I'm an old man, can you hide your little bit of caution from me? ”
Ji Yao was very resistant to marrying Gu Jinchao in his heart, and even when he felt that Gu Jinchao was actually not bad, he did not agree with this family business. He had always felt that it was because he didn't like Gu Jinchao, but now that he thought about it, in addition to this reason, there must be resentment and unwillingness in his heart......
Ji Wu looked at the direction in which Gu Jinchao was leaving, and his heart was a little sour.
"I hurt her......" she murmured, "your aunt grew up with your great-grandmother and grew up like that." I always thought that if I spoil my sister a little more, she will be harder, but I didn't expect it to hurt her...... I asked you to marry her, but I, an old woman, was selfish and wanted me to help me guard my granddaughter and not let others bully her. But I never thought about how you felt......"
Ji Yao looked at Ji Wu, a little surprised in his heart, he had never seen Ji Wu talk to him like this. He didn't expect Gu Jinchao to have such a hard time, he always thought that she was very beautiful in the Gu family, who would dare to bully her with that temperament.
He suddenly remembered Gu Jinchao and said to him with a smile: "I know you don't like me, don't reluctantly help me ......" that self-deprecating and alienated look.
Ji Yao was silent, he didn't want to help her at the time, but he didn't think it was difficult for her, and he still wanted to see the joke. I didn't expect Gu Jinchao to have such a bad time in the Gu family, and he treated her like this. Thinking of the elegant white lotus on her cuffs, Ji Yao felt a little inexplicably soft-hearted.
Ji Wu continued: "My grandmother doesn't have a few years to live, and there is only this one wish, so that you can protect your sister well...... Grandmother asks you again, would you like to? ”
Ji Yao hesitated for a long time before saying, "You wait for me to think about it......" RS
