Chapter 371: Liar (2)
"Say, who made you a guarantor? No one says hello, can you talk so well? β
"No, there is really no one to guarantee it, and the villain received a benefit fee of ten taels of silver."
After all, it was not his own subordinates, Huo Dudu did not dare to use torture, he pressed again and again, this street patrol official was always those words, Huo Dudu had to teach a few words and let the person go.
Mrs. Huo was so angry that she scolded the man at home for being too incompetent, Huo Dudu did not speak with a gloomy face, but secretly, he let a gangster in his jurisdiction quietly stare at the little official to see if anyone was in contact with him.
The Huo family was in a miasma, but Qian Hao was furious at home: "You guys are really a bunch of fools, why do you want to take a photo address?" Otherwise, we will not get more than 2,000 taels of silver, but more than 20,000. β
The person kneeling on the ground trembled and defended: "Good third master, where is Huo Dudu so fooled? He casually sent someone to check, and knew that the orchard belonged to the Zhou family, even if the queen was not powerful, the emperor would never look at people to bully, Huo Dudu would definitely not buy it, if he didn't take someone to seal the shop, we wouldn't run away, maybe it would be all arrested, the third master, the Huo family, and the princess Liu and the He family back then, those two are women in the house, they don't understand anything, so they are confused. β
"Quabbling, you will only quibble, get out of here, and you are not allowed to eat tonight."
A few people didn't dare to speak anymore, so they walked out dejectedly and returned to the small courtyard where they lived, and they had to hide in the house for a few months, and then secretly leave the city when the wind subsided.
Qian Hao sat on the chair, gasping for breath, and said in his heart that Xiao was deceiving people, how could he deceive a quasi, and then let people not catch the handle, how could he carry it like this, tomorrow would be seamless, but let these dog minions mess up, thinking that more than 20,000 pieces of silver had only arrived at less than 3,000 taels, he was annoyed.
In the evening, Qian Jun stepped on the glow and returned to Yixin Garden, which is worthy of the royal courtyard, rockery flowing springs, willow embankments condensing green, a bay of streams, gurgling under the arch bridge of white marble, elegant white cranes, frolicking by the small pond of the inlet, the reeds by the pool, have grown a foot-high green seedlings, rustling in the breeze.
Wen Jin took his two daughters to greet his family not far away, and he had already returned from Zongxue in the middle of the night, and was chasing and playing with his two younger sisters, and when he saw his father, he ran over with joy.
He stretched out his arms, caught his two daughters, and then hugged them one by one.
"Father, it's hard for you to go out and do things, right? You put us down, and my sister and I can follow you. Mango's round apple blushed and fluttered, and her big dark eyes fluttered, and she spoke to her father very obediently and considerately.
"Father is not tired."
"Father, my sister and I are holding your hand, okay?" Although Gui Yuan didn't say much, she could always talk about people's hearts, and she was still struggling to get off the ground.
Wen Jin hurriedly took the mango, hugged one with her husband, walked beside her father in the middle of the night, and the family went to the banquet room in the meager sunset.
"I seem to have gotten off to a bad start." Wen Jin said to her husband with a smile.
Qian Jun was a little puzzled, and raised his eyebrows slightly, expressing doubts.
"Qian Hao deceived the Huo family, ** naked deception, he sent people to keep an eye on Huo Dudu, and when he saw the old man angrily leading people in the direction of Fu Lutian, he immediately set off fireworks to call the police, so that his people escaped."
"Huo's side, how much is the loss?"
"Nearly three thousand taels of silver."
"Qian Hao is mad, you punished Liu Caiqin and He back then, it was they who provoked you, but the Huo family did not provoke Qian Hao, and even suffered from it, now, Qian Hao actually picked up the soft pinch of the persimmon, and also took the Huo family to open the knife, this is bullying, or bullying people too much."
"Yes, I think so too, Huo Dudu probably can't bear it anymore."
"Haha, you still have this word, didn't you say that you can't bear it, and endure it again? Huo Dudu has to hold back until he is about to explode, so that he is the most explosive. β
"You're not much worse than that."
"Oh, a lot, in the past, the uncle acted low-key, although he hated Dong Jincai, but he didn't provoke him, because the emperor is that mentality, he must set up an opponent for the uncle, there was Yao Guangyuan, and then Dong Jincai, he was annoyed, overthrow one, the emperor set up another one, go forward and succeed, it is impossible to prevent it, besides, Dong Jin only has a few catties and a few taels, the uncle knows it clearly, and he overthrows it, maybe he will set up a more cunning and difficult to deal with, so he is too lazy to do it."
"But now it's the second uncle here." Wen Jin intuitively felt that Shen Mingyun and Shen Mingzhao had different personalities.
"Yes, the second uncle can't tolerate sand in his eyes, he is actually more capable than the eldest uncle, but when his grandfather died, he arranged connections to support his uncle, just because he was afraid that he would be too impulsive and take care of his head and tail, and poke out the big Louzi."
"And now? Are you afraid? β
Qian Jun shook his head: "At this time and that time, the second uncle is stabbing Lou Zi, and it is not a year or two that can be stabbed out, the emperor is old, and when the prince takes over, the second uncle can buffer it, besides, there is me and the third uncle here to carry around, how big can the second uncle poke the basket?" β
"I think the second uncle is very calm, you see that he has been in Beijing for a few months, almost like the eldest uncle, silent."
"Hmph" Qian Jun wanted to laugh or not, snorted, and then said: "The second uncle is about to make a move, he has been holding back for so long, it is estimated that he can't bear it anymore." β
"Will he endure it again?"
"No, he is different from his uncle, even if his head is broken and bleeding, he will not hesitate to do it."
Wen Jin came to the spirit, politicians and officials like Shen Mingyun are really rare, and it is even rarer to be able to rise to such a high position.
When the banquet room arrived, Wen Jin instructed the servants to bring water for washing, the two nurses took their little daughter to wash their hands, and Wen Jin helped Qian Jun undress. I used to watch ancient TV dramas, and I felt that those men really loved to put on music, and they even raised their hands to let people serve and wear clothes, but now Wen Jin understands that this dress is indeed too delicate, and there are jade belts and jade pendants on it, as well as purses, pencil cases, etc., and there are really people to help so as not to damage anything. Wen Jin put the things he took off one by one in the black lacquered wooden plate held by the little maid, and finally helped take off the official uniform and fold it, and let the maid carry it to the bedroom.
Qian Jun put on a fine white gauze jacket, went into the bathroom to wash it, put on the civilian clothes placed there and came out, the food had been delivered from the kitchen, and the family started dinner.
Wen Jin doesn't like the ancient precept of eating without saying a word, but because her daughter and son must abide by it, she has to set an example for her children, and eat very elegantly and decently, so that mango and longan can learn from each other.
At midnight fourteen, to rest in the outer courtyard, the family walked to the weeping flower gate, he saluted like his parents, and the family soldiers were divided into two roads.
"Jin Jin hasn't come back for the past few days, I don't know how I'm doing in the Junwang Mansion?"
"It's good, he is very responsible, and he also respects Princess Naren, and yesterday the attendant also sent me a letter, saying that the gold thread woven by Princess Naren gave Jinjin a double dragon to grab the pearl, which was produced by Gu Shantang in the capital, which is very precious."
"Princess Naren has spoiled him." The son is liked, Wen Jin is naturally happy, this is just modesty.
Qian Jun is naturally proud of his son: "He also did a good job in the military department, I was worried that he was inexperienced, afraid that he would be harmed by those officials, but I didn't expect this kid to be very careful, even if he didn't say everything to his face, he had to find someone behind his back to figure it out, he was not like some high-ranking disciples who wanted to die to save face and suffer crimes, I was afraid that others would laugh at him for having no ink on his chest, so he didn't know how to pretend to understand, and covered it everywhere. Every time he finds a suitable excuse to thank these people, he is now very fond of him from all levels of the military department. β
Wen Jin patted his chest: "So I'm relieved." β
"You taught it well." This sentence, Qian Jun said sincerely, when he was young, he was unruly, like a wild horse that has escaped, although he is capable, but he is always hurt by all kinds of jealousy and dissatisfaction, now in retrospect, if his mother can live a few more years, can be as patient and meticulous as Wen Jin's son, he doesn't know how much less tribulation.
Wen Jin smiled: "It's good for you to teach, I've been worried, I'm afraid that I'll be too wordy and teach the child to be girly." β
Listening to the mother and father complimenting each other, longan was very quiet, but Mango couldn't help it, in front of the house, she struggled to slip off Wen Jin's arms to chase the butterflies flying in the small garden, Qian Jun also put down longan, let the sisters play together, the nurse and maid in the back hurried over, protecting the little master from falling and knocking, Wen Jin and Qian Jun entered the bedroom.
"The second uncle is estimated to impeach Dong Jincai for a protΓ©gΓ© in the past few days, that person is in Jiangnan, and he is hindered everywhere, and the excerpts of the prince and Zhang Lan have been on it three times."
"Your second uncle's reform is against the entire Shilin officials, this time, Dong Jincai will definitely meddle everywhere and win people's hearts."
"Yes, whether the Jiangnan side is success or failure, in the past few days, there will soon be a big storm in the imperial court."
Seeing that his wife was a little worried, Qian Jun patted his arms in relief and held her in his arms: "It's okay, this time, Dong Jincai miscalculated, no matter how confused the emperor is, he will never support the second uncle, Jiangnan repairs the embankment, if you can't solve the funds on the spot, you can hollow out the household." β
"The treasury is so empty?" "Well, natural disasters have been frequent in recent years, although the emperor is confused, but he is still benevolent, disaster relief, exemption of money and food for the poor, etc., there are several cases every year, and the treasury is in a lot of deficit." Wen Jin didn't speak, stretched out her arm, hugged her husband, she understood Qian Jun, this is an ancient nobleman who grew up with Confucian education, he has the world in mind, sympathizes with the people, and therefore supports the emperor, helps the emperor deal with court affairs, he can't stop him with his own likes and dislikes, the emperor must let his courtiers be divided into two or more factions, that is his way of governing the government, as long as he has the heart of the people, there are still the people and the government, there is some merit, Qian Jun's assistance, that is meaningful.
