Chapter 32: Who's Laying Out
"As the master expected, Jiang Barium really sent someone to Xianchi Tower to buy news." Yao Wuming stood on the edge of Tao Yao and said.
"You're polite, the fertilizer and water don't flow into the fields of outsiders, and you don't make money in vain." Tao Xiaoyao smiled, knowing in her heart.
"Master, will it be dangerous for Xiao Shan to directly tell Xiao Shan's identity?" Yao Wuming asked again.
Jiang Barium sent someone to secretly buy three pieces of news, one is Xiaoshan's identity, the second is Tao Yao's identity, and the third is who the Linglong family's temporary contract breakers are.
"No, it won't. When the other party knew Xiaoshan's identity, he would only think about how to convince her that she would not return to the Li family, but instead go to their name, and naturally would not do anything unfavorable to herself. Tao Yaoyao said confidently, Xiaoshan often runs outside, as long as someone takes a little time, it is not difficult to find out the identity, there is no need to be as mysterious as Yao Wuzhi hidden, appropriate exposure will make the other party jealous, but it is a good thing for Xiaoshan.
"What if they find out that this is not the case?" What if Jiang Barium found out that they were using him?
"By that time, the Jiang family is no longer the current Jiang family, and the Li family is not the current Li family." Tao Yaoyao's eyes looked at the teacup in her hand, and the light gathered on the rim of the cup, reflecting her clear and bright eyes.
"Master, I've got the news." A servant bowed over and whispered.
"How?" Jiang Barium looked at his henchman with a serious expression on his face.
"The woman of the Linglong family is the master of the Linglong Pavilion, and she is a good child. Many big shopkeepers have seen her appearance, and the small ones have changed their portraits with a lot of money. And Yao Shan'er does have an older brother, but he is away all the year round, but he is not in the government and the opposition, and he likes to travel everywhere. The man carefully handed a portrait to Jiang Barium.
"Someone, invite the young master. Those people in Linglong Pavilion are from the Li family, right? The thoughts in Jiang Barium's heart were also determined.
"That's right. The first few people, whose foundation is located in Huicheng, happens to be the place controlled by the Li family. Before the Huicheng disaster, the silver was stolen, and the food was missing, which implicated many merchants, and those people were more or less involved, but they escaped for a while under the protection of the Li family, and they must be the same to be obedient to their civilization. The man said.
The reputation of Xianchi Lou has always been very good, and the news has never been wrong, and he has never dared to accept various family affairs or even a trace of government affairs, and only recognizes silver. No matter who you are, as long as you have a relationship and enough silver, you can get what you want to know. It is precisely because no one has ever thought of making any crooked ideas about Xianchi Tower, one is because it will not implicate one's own interests, and the other is because you never know how much you know about Xianchi Tower.
Thinking of this, Jiang Barium nodded and motioned for the man to go out.
"Father, is there something wrong with looking for the child so late?" Jiang Mu hurried over, and he didn't dare to slack off on his father's words.
"Mu'er, come and see, this woman is the one you saw?" Jiang opened the portrait and pushed it in front of his son.
Jiang Mu just glanced at it lightly, the amazement in his eyes flashed, and then he said, "Yes, father, she is this girl." ”
Jiang Barium didn't answer, but walked back and forth. Jiang Mu was also reluctant to interject, patiently watching his father pacing around the room, as if considering an extremely difficult decision to make. Suddenly, Jiang Barium slapped the table with one hand, making a "bang" sound.
"Father?" Jiang Mu was startled, and hurriedly bowed down and asked.
"Mu'er, this woman is the pavilion master of Linglong Pavilion, there is no doubt that today's matter is thanks to your timely discovery, and it is also the immortal Jiang family. If Linglong Pavilion really took refuge in Li Mingtao, I am afraid that it will really be as he said. If Li Wanfeng becomes the queen, my Jiang family will definitely not die well. If the Roufei Niangniang is prosperous, the Jiang family will be prosperous, and if the Roufei Niangniang is down, the Jiang family will be down. After Jiang Barium said this, the person seemed to suddenly get much older, and sat down on the chair all of a sudden.
Yes, they don't have as much background as the Li family, all their hopes are in Jiang Shaoqing alone, as long as Jiang Shaoqing becomes the queen, then they are the real people who have become people.
"The child understands." Jiang Mu lowered his head, but when his father confirmed Xiao Shan's identity, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and even Jiang Barium didn't notice it.
"Mu'er, it's only up to you now. Now, you go ahead and try it and see if there's any way to delay Linglong Pavilion's thoughts. As long as they don't take refuge in the Li family, anything will be fine. Jiang Barium looked at this son, this son who had never disobeyed him. He knew that Jiang Mu had some bad style outside, but men just acted on the spot, so they turned a blind eye. As long as he can prioritize it, it's fine.
"The child deceived his father before he was filial, and asked his father to punish him." Jiang Mu suddenly knelt down.
"Mu'er, ...... you" Jiang Barium didn't know what he meant, and was speechless for a while.
"Don't hide it from my father, the child didn't meet the brother and sister by chance. But on the road, I saw that the girl was beautiful, and thought that she was Brother Mu's maidservant, so she wanted to exchange money for a while, but she was humiliated by Brother Mu, but she really didn't know that she was the master of Linglong Pavilion. Then, because he admired him and couldn't bear to be humiliated, he deliberately found Linglong's family and wanted to gamble on the beauty style. Brother Mu didn't let the child participate in this matter, and the child thought that the matter was serious, so he hurried back to inform his father. Jiang Mu didn't have the slightest hint of asking for punishment when he said this, but it seemed like asking for credit.
"Good! Why is Mu Er unfilial, hurry up. Jiang Barium really didn't think about punishing him when he heard this, but he was excited. Originally, I was thinking about whether it was someone else's game, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence. Now I didn't expect that it was my son who coveted the beauty of others and ate the closed door. It's better, that's great!
"Father?" Jiang Mu looked puzzled, and was supported by his father, a little flattered.
"Mu'er doesn't need to say much, but you love that woman?" Jiang Barium smiled and looked at him.
"Father, this ......" Jiang Mu was a little embarrassed.
"Does that woman have anything to say?" Jiang Barium hurriedly asked.
"Shan'er said that she asked the child not to get involved in this matter, there is no chance in this life, and she must sacrifice herself for the sake of Linglong Pavilion." Jiang Mu added fuel to the scene at that time, saying that it was as if Xiaoshan was interested in his concubine's lover, but he had no choice but to play tricks on fate.
"Good! Mu'er, there is still a turning point in this matter! Since the Li clan wants to fight with us against the water, then we might as well strike first! Tomorrow, my father will rush to Xiaocheng and meet Concubine Rou in person. And you only have to do one thing! Jiang Barium said solemnly.
"Father, please say, the child should obey his own fate!" Jiang Mu bowed and replied firmly, knowing what he said in his heart for a long time but remained silent.
"You just need to let Yao Shan'er be my Jiang family's wife." Jiang Barium smiled.
"Father!" Jiang Mu's eyes widened and he looked at him in disbelief.
"The husband will order someone to let you feel free to do the silver taels, as long as you get the good child, you will get the Linglong Pavilion. Today's Linglong Pavilion is a big businessman, and you don't need your father to tell you about the benefits and benefits of this. Jiang Barium nodded, if this matter is done, his status in the Jiang family will be doubled.
"The child will live up to his father's expectations." Jiang Mu replied happily, how could he not be happy about this matter as he wished.
"Good, good! Tomorrow, you will bring a generous gift to Linglong's house, and those who deal with Linglong's family, your father will settle it. I don't dare to say it elsewhere, but in this Luoyang County, even the Li family can't think about turning the sky upside down! Jiang Barium said three good words in a row, and a pair of old eyes suddenly became gloomy, since he has decided, he must be ruthless and unscrupulous.
"Yes, father." Jiang Mu hurriedly bowed down and answered, a little weak and didn't dare to look at him.
The so-called praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches are behind, and that's probably what they say, and then look at the Dust Inn, Qing Ye is still in the middle of the night in the house.
"Can you find out?" Qing Yezhuo hadn't seen the girl since he came back from Goolan Courtyard.
"Holy Lord, it seems that someone is blocking it, and he doesn't want the minions to find out. Now they only know that the girl is from Linglong Pavilion, but after the minions went to Linglong Pavilion to investigate, they found that there was no such person. The Dark Guard knelt down to report.
"Rubbish!" The night slammed the cup in anger.
"The Holy One is angry. The opening of Linglong's house tomorrow is already rumored in the city, maybe that person is from the Linglong family? This Linglong Pavilion and the Linglong family are originally the same, and it is not surprising if this is the case. Guifu hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him, and then cleaned up the debris on the ground.
"Linglong ......," the night scorched.
"The minions are incompetent, and there seems to be a master in Linglong's family, and he failed to enter the investigation." The dark guard listened to Qing Yezhuo talk about the Linglong family, so he had to continue with a bitter face, waiting for the storm behind.
"Oh? It's funny, a small shop still has a place where the secret guards are not allowed to enter. Instead of being annoyed, Nightburn smiled meaningfully.
"Your Majesty, the spies from the border came to report, saying that now everyone knows the news of the Wan nobles, and as soon as it spreads for a hundred miles, the Li family is also ready to move. Could this Linglong Pavilion have anything to do with the Li family? Guifu asked.
"I used Linglong Pavilion to contain the Li family, just to give Li Mingtao a wake-up call, if he doesn't appreciate it, then don't blame me for being ruthless." Qing Ye Zhuo said coldly, thinking of the woman whose life and death are unknown now, a pain welled up in his heart, and the teacup in his hand was pinched too tightly and shattered directly, and the fragments buckled into the skin without knowing it.
"Your Majesty—" Guifu was taken aback.
"No problem." Qing Yezhuo let go of his hand lightly, not caring about the blood that was oozing out.
A man in black was whispering to him next door to Nightburn.
"Master, tomorrow will be the opening of Linglong's house, and now several forces in Luoyang County can't hold it back, why don't you catch it all?"
"No, our goal is to muddy the water a little more, not to pour it with clear soup. If we do it, won't the royal brother have nothing to do? "The one who speaks is Gu Zhiqi who rushes in.
"The master is wise." The man in black knelt down and said.
Gu Zhiqi fanned the fan at night, revealing a hint of a smile, he didn't know if he was coming impulsively for that person, or for the sake of the great rivers and mountains. Only later did he tell him what was left in his heart.
