Chapter 84: Want to Hug?
"I haven't even found Wencai's bones, there is no evidence or certificate, he is still a member of the royal family, what's the use of us reporting to the official!" The head of the Li family said angrily, "I gave you so much silver, I thought that Shen Yan would sometimes help the Li family, but I didn't expect that he only took money and didn't work!" ”
Li simply cried: "What does this have to do with me, it was the eldest brother who sent me in to be a concubine." ”
At this point, it's useless to blame anyone.
The head of the Li family immediately made a decision and said, "Let Ying'er set up a line, I want to see the Queen Mother." ”
Li cried again: "Ying'er has just been punished, and now she is thinking about it behind closed doors, and her life in the palace is difficult......"
"If you don't take the initiative, you will only be slowly driven to a dead end!" There was a yin wind between the teeth of the head of the Li family, "Your Majesty is disgusted with her, she can only throw herself to the Queen Mother now in order to survive in the harem, what else do you think about?" ”
Li hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Her daughter lost her sacred heart, and the Li family lost their son, so they could only make a lonely bet.
Shen Yunying was more clear than the Li family, and when she heard that her uncle wanted to find her to set up a line, she immediately spent some money.
Empress Dowager Yin would never meet a businessman, so it was Peizhen who came forward on her behalf.
The wing room of Jinle Building.
Outside, the sound of strumming and singing was choppy.
Pei Zhen looked at the Li family master in front of her, and simply got straight to the point: "What the Li family master asked for before, the master agreed, let's see if the Li family master can add another 10,000 taels of gold." ”
The head of the Li family smiled and said, "Girl, many shops in the Li family are closed now, and it is not easy to make up the 100,000 taels of silver that they have promised. ”
Pei Zhen smiled coldly: "This is to kill the prince of the dynasty, 100,000 taels of silver is less." The head of the Li family should also know that today's King Jing is strong in martial arts, and it is not something that can be killed by sending a few people at will. ”
The head of the Li family had never seen Gu Beirin make a move, but he had heard of his prestige.
In such a short period of time, the limelight can overwhelm the commander of An Yanghou, how can this person be easy to deal with.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have scraped together so much money to find the Empress Dowager Yin.
"It's okay to add an extra 10,000 taels of gold, but I also want Shen Yunzhu's life!"
"No, you can't." Peizhen refused, "The master values Princess Jing very much, she can't move." ”
Concubine Deng Guifei is about to give birth, and of course Empress Dowager Yin will not do anything risky.
The head of the Li family frowned, so he had to take a step back: "That's good, I only want King Jing's life!" ”
Pei Zhen said: "In the deal, as long as the money of the head of the Li family is in place, the master will arrange to act. ”
The two left one after the other.
As everyone knows, Yinxi is in the wing room next door.
At the beginning of the construction of this Jinle Building, it was specially designed by skilled craftsmen, as long as the mechanism is turned on, you can hear the conversation in the wing room next door.
Yinxi is not good at going to King Jing's Mansion every day, so he can only ask Gu Beirin to come over.
Gu Beirin was able to come to this kind of gold cave, and when others saw it, they only regarded him as a gentleman.
But he was afraid that others would chew the root of his tongue in front of Shen Yunzhu, so he simply brought her along and tasted the ice cheese of Jinle Lou by the way.
Yinxi was not in a hurry to go in, but instead asked Yan Wei for questioning.
"My spy said that those words outside were said by the prince at the beginning, is this true?"
Yan Wei couldn't lift his spirits now, and said weakly: "Yes, the prince can show off now." ”
The corners of Yinxi's mouth twitched slightly, why didn't he find out that his master was like this before?
"Is the prince really guarding the clouds and seeing the moon? Or is it that the prince uses a strong one? ”
Yan Wei hurriedly denied: "How can it be, the prince is playing a little trick, but he won't be despicable enough to force a woman, right?" I asked the prince, and he said that the princess had already secretly promised him, so the two of them came naturally. ”
“???” Yinxi always felt that there was some moisture in these words.
Yan Wei didn't know what he thought, and said, "Yinxi, you also prepare a piece of ice cheese for me, I want to take it back and eat it." ”
"Ice cheese won't taste good when you take it back, so if you want to eat it, eat it here." Silverstream said.
Yan Wei said: "Then you can prepare something for me to take back." ”
Yinxi reacted and said, "Don't you eat it yourself, you want to take it back to others to eat, right?" ”
This is exactly the same as the prince before, when he comes here, he always has to take some sweet cakes back for Shen Yunzhu to eat.
Yan Wei hesitated: "No...... No, I'm just afraid of being hungry at night. ”
Yinxi smiled: "Okay, you're not young, it's time to get up, now that the prince is back, which girl do you fancie, you can call the prince to decide." ”
Yan Wei looked dejected, if only it were so simple.
After the two of them finished speaking, they went into the private room.
Shen Yunzhu had already finished eating the ice cheese, looked at the pastries on the table, swallowed his saliva, and still held back his hand.
"Eat as much as you want." Gu Beirin sandwiched a piece of pastry into her bowl.
Shen Yunzhu pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "I can't eat it, I've eaten a lot recently, and I found that my clothes are a little tight." ”
Gu Beirin felt that she was a little thinner, "If the clothes are tight, make new ones, and your husband is not without money." ”
Yinxi and Yan Wei both pretended not to hear.
Shen Yunzhu already felt ashamed, and hurriedly said, "Don't you want to get down to business?" ”
Gu Beirin looked at Yinxi, "Say it." ”
Yinxi recounted the conversation he had just heard, with a solemn expression, and said, "It's really rare that the Queen Mother actually collects money to do things for a private businessman." ”
Gu Beirin played with the cup in his hand, and his eyes were indifferent: "The price is 100,000, plus 10,000 taels of gold, which is not a small amount." She originally wanted to get rid of me and collect money from the Li family, which should be incidental, not for others. ”
Yinxi frowned: "But Yin Wei has always been pretentious, which is a bit strange." ”
"What's so strange about this, she must be short of money if she offers such a high price." Shen Yunzhu interjected.
She knows this best.
Yan Wei said: "The princess doesn't know anything, the regent ...... After the death of the regent, Yin Wei took up the Wanguan family wealth of the regent's mansion, and also had the help of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, so he would not be short of money. ”
Gu Bei suddenly hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "From ancient times to the present, what is the most expensive thing to raise?" ”
Shen Yunzhu naturally couldn't guess it, but Yan Wei and the others immediately reacted: "Raise soldiers!" ”
Whether it is food and grass, or soldiers' armor, weapons, and war horses, everything needs money.
The biggest annual expense of the imperial treasury is to raise the army.
Gu Beirin said: "Pay attention to how the Li family's silver is delivered and where it is transported." ”
Keeping a private soldier is a felony.
Yin Wei did not hesitate to take risks, and it seemed that her relationship with the young emperor was already very tense.
He had to find out where the private soldiers were and whether they could be used for his own use.
Yinxi nodded: "My subordinates understand." ”
On the way back, the carriage was dim, and Gu Beirin held her soft, so she closed her eyes and recuperated with peace of mind.
Shen Yunzhu has been in and out with him a lot in the past few days, and he didn't deliberately hide it from himself, she was vaguely aware of one thing.
She moved over, a faint breath lingering around him.
He opened his eyes and saw her petite figure close in front of him: "Want to hug?" ”
