Chapter 321: Good Deeds Are Rewarded

"Someone!"

Before the convoy of more than a dozen large cars from the wine and vinegar factory had passed, the coachman in front of the wheel heard the voice of the hostess behind him, and hurriedly leaned back: "What do you want Madame to order?" ”

"Call someone to ask, what's going on with the convoy of this wine and vinegar factory? Did you just run into us, or did you encounter something in front of you that was delayed? ”

This order was very clear and clear, so although the coachman felt a little strange, he immediately called a guard over, and repeated Chen Lan's words as it was, and the guard galloped out without hesitation. In a few moments, more than a dozen carts of mules and horses passed by, and the coachman flicked the reins, and the carriage, which had just stopped for a long time, slowly moved forward. When he walked to the front of the warehouse, there was a shout from behind, and I saw the guard who had just gone to inquire about the news galloping back from the front like a gust of wind, and reined in his horse steadily beside the car.

"Madam, the little one has already gone to investigate."

Seeing that the curtain was slightly opened, the guard on horseback hurriedly bowed his head, not daring to see what was going on in the carriage, but only said respectfully: "The convoy of the wine vinegar eyebrow factory crossed the Haizi Bridge from the lower street of the drum tower and came from the north street of the Huangqiang North Street, but in the north street of the imperial wall encountered the red shop of the outer imperial city to adjust the defense, and had to detour to Chongguosi Street.......

"Yes, you're very detailed."

After praising the guard, Chen Lan asked him to call Aunt Liu to get in the car. When Aunt Liu got into the car, the carriage started again, she stared at it for a long time, and then said bluntly: "Aunt Liu, do you know that there is a big incident in the palace today, the master of ceremonies and the princess of Qu, the royal supervisor of Xia, and the manager of the Qianqing Palace, Cheng Gonggong, all three of them have been put in prison?" ”

Aunt Liu, who is over forty years old, has always been accustomed to wind and waves, but "in the face of such news, her face immediately changed, and it happened that the car was bumpy, and she almost fell to the ground." If it's just someone else, the eunuch can become the former Kunning Palace steward, "Whether it's a female official, or these palace maids, most of them are quite taken care of."

The most important thing is that if it weren't for Eunuch Cheng thinking that she was honest and steady, so he chose her and Aunt Yun, even if she didn't go to guard the mausoleum, it would be nothing more than assigning another master or a side hall to guard it, where could she have such a reason now?

"Madame.........*......" She made a choice almost in a flash of thought, and knelt down on her knees, and said in a low voice, "The slave has received the kindness of her father-in-law, and I am afraid that I will not be able to repay her in this life." For such a big matter, the slave and maid dare not ask you to come forward to intercede, but please try to inquire about the news."

"Aunt Liu, please get up, this is what I can do, I will naturally inquire." Chen Lan hurriedly helped Aunt Liu up, and then didn't say much, but handed over the paper ball in his hand without hesitation, "You take care of this." ”

Aunt Liu was taken aback, but immediately took it, Zhan Qi calmed it down, she frowned unconsciously, and then raised her head thoughtfully: "Madam" This is ......"

"This is what someone suddenly threw in from outside just now when we were avoiding on the side of the road." Chen Lan became vigilant when he saw Aunt Liu's face full of surprise, so he continued, "After receiving something, I opened the curtain and looked out," but there was no trace of the person. You should have heard about what I asked you to inquire about just now, and you can always understand a thing or two when you think about it. ”

Madame said, "Is the convoy of this wine and vinegar factory waiting for us?" "Aunt Liu is also a shrewd person, thinking of this stubble, she gradually thought of something deeper, "The money on this paper is winter silver, winter to summer, silver to gold, when it is a hidden word." Xia is naturally the royal supervisor Father-in-law Xia, and Jin is the Father-in-law of the Wine and Vinegar Factory, since Father-in-law Xia has been imprisoned, and the Liquor and Vinegar Outsider Factory has designed the same as before, then, is Father-in-law Jin looking for his wife to speak? ”

In the case of not knowing whether there were traps in Huguo Temple, Chen Lan knew that he was too reckless to go directly to the past.

However, it is not advisable to leave the letter alone. Of course, she can also pick any of the guards outside to take a look in the Huguo Temple, but if it is really the golden eunuch who speaks, I am afraid that she will not believe outsiders. So, she had to hit Aunt Liu with her idea. Although she is not completely sure, judging from the information in Zhang Huixin's previous words, she can be at least seven or eight points accurate.

"When it is." After she nodded slightly, she sighed and said, "I know, Gonggong Xia and Gonggong Cheng are the same old people when the emperor was in the hidden mansion, maybe there will be any breakthroughs or clues in the future." I don't know how the Sacred Heart is, I used to have some friendship with Gonggong Xia, and when I was in the palace, I also had to be taken care of by Gonggong Cheng, but I didn't dare to act rashly, so I could only ask Aunt Liu for help this time. Please take two people and go there for me, at least to see what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd. ”

"This is what a slave should be*......"

In the midst of the lightning, thinking of the news sent by the celebrant some time ago, so that she no longer had to monitor the report, Aunt Liu suddenly made a decision, and knelt down again despite the bumps in the carriage: "These days" Mrs. has been extremely kind to the slave and maid, "But the slave and maid have been serving you for a long time, and they have reported some things about you and the master, and I have long felt guilty in my heart. At this time, it should be the slave and maid who repay you for your kindness, not to mention that the slave and maid also want to do their best for Cheng Gonggong. ”

It was just speculation before, but now that Aunt Liu finally told the truth, Chen Lan only felt a great sigh of relief in his heart. She didn't say anything, just stretched out her hand to help Aunt Liu up again, and then ordered, "Stop!" ”

The driver outside didn't know why, so he hurriedly pulled the reins and stopped the car. Soon, Aunt Liu got out of the car. Seeing that the guards around her were looking at her, she bowed her head slightly and said: "Madame said, after the lunar month, all the prefectures often send sesame oil money to the Huguo Temple, which is not only to do Buddhist things, but also to do good deeds." We didn't have this rule in the mirror garden before, but today I heard that there was porridge there, and someone had to take a look. Two people followed me, let's go from Chongguosi Street to Huguo Temple, and then walk straight back to Jingyuan from Mianhuā Hutong. ”

Since it was Chen Lan's order, the guards outside naturally had nothing to say, and even if they separated two people, they went to Huguo Temple with Aunt Liu. With the carriage starting again, Chen Lan put down the thick velvet curtains. Whether it's a trap, a stratagem, or a desperate call for help, you can't take the next step if you don't figure it out. Although the assassination and injury of Eunuch Xia was once hidden from the emperor, it should have been exposed later, even so, some things naturally can't be hidden, so it is better for her to be generous in front of others.

Fortunately, Aunt Liu taught her what she thought after all...... I think that Aunt Liu said those words, most likely because she did not have to continue to perform the duty of surveillance. Thanks to her words and deeds from before to after she got married, her words and deeds have always made the Supreme Son of Heaven in the palace quite satisfied!

In front of the second gate of the mirror garden, Zhuang's mother, who was waiting there, paced back and forth, until a little girl trotted over to report that someone was coming, and she showed a little joy. When she saw the line slowly coming from the corner, she didn't have time to wait for the car to stop, so she hurriedly ran along the road. Seeing that she was so anxious, the coachman immediately stopped the car, put the pedals under the wheels, and immediately stepped back.

Zhuang's mother opened the car door, personally helped Chen Lan get out of the car, and said, "Madam, just now a message was sent from the Yamen, because the Marquis of Yangning was in charge of the guard, and the right army governor's mansion was transferred to the left army governor's mansion, and the palm print of the right army governor's mansion was gone. ”

Speaking of this, her voice suddenly became like a mosquito bite, so light that only Chen Lan next to her could hear it: "Just now, several ladies who are good friends with the old lady have come over, saying that there has been a sudden change in Jingwei in the past few days." Shang Twenty-six Wei is the pro-army of the Fan Su Guard, originally not under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, directly under the Ministry of War, but this time it was spun off, and even the Ministry of War could not be controlled.

In this way, only the Han general, who usually maintained the book of Chaoyi, was under the command of the Marquis of Yangning...... In addition, the lord sent a letter, saying that he would not come back tonight. ”

Chen Lan had long known that his third uncle Chen Ying would not be able to grasp the power of the imperial army so quickly, but with such a name, no matter who it was, he would probably be depressed for a while. However, at this juncture, Yang Jinzhou said that he would not come back at night, was he summoned by the Son of Heaven later, or was he really busy with official business, or was it ......,... Does he have other arrangements?

Aunt Liu, the bamboo forest elite of Huguo Temple, looked at the golden eunuch who was desperately clutching the small porcelain bottle in her hand in shock, and sighed for a long time: "Gonggong Jin, the will to rectify the twenty-four yamen has not yet been clearly written, if you are doing something stupid now, it is just making things more troublesome!" It must be known that since the founding of the country, the most hated by the ancestors and ancestors was the self-harm of the concubines and eunuchs. Moreover, the emperor may only be angry for a while, and if he really wants to kill, he doesn't need to put the three fathers-in-law in prison together. ”

Eunuch Jin has been shocked by today's news again and again, and when he heard this, his hand couldn't help but loosen slightly, and then he said with a strange face: "These words, did the county lord of Haining let you carry them?" ”

"It's just me saying it myself.* ......" Aunt Liu raised her eyebrows and said word by word, "What if others take the evidence that you are corrupt?" Even if it is taken in now, it may be a bit of a hardship, but which is heavier than affecting the family? Even Father-in-law Xia will definitely not be so stupid because of a momentary setback. You say that you have clear accounts under your hands, but you are afraid that you will not be able to turn them over afterwards? What's more, no one has come to get you yet! ”

Seeing that Eunuch Jin hesitated and put down her hand, Aunt Liu suddenly stepped forward and knocked down the bottle in Eunuch Jin's hand. Taking advantage of her stunned moment, she reprimanded her head again.

"Father-in-law Xia sent the news out so easily, it was for you to try to protect yourself, not for you to seek death and life! If you have the time to think about these things here, it is better to hurry back to the wine and vinegar factory, so as not to be caught at this juncture! ”
