Chapter 119: Negotiation
Sun Rujin looked at her expression, and knew that she was looking for Grandpa to discuss, although she caught the concubine Zhao last time, but the person behind her had not yet been figured out.
In the next few days, Grandpa encountered accidents one after another.
Grandpa didn't say it, but she guessed that it was related to officialdom.
Ling Jiang's methods are not ordinary, or he can help Grandpa a few points.
She didn't ask much, just smiled and said, "Grandpa is at home." Let's go, let's go together to say hello to Grandpa. ”
Sun Rujin led He Lingjiang to the study in the front yard, and the servants guarding the door saw the two of them and hurriedly saluted: "Four ladies, He Qiniang." ”
Sun Rujin waved his hand and motioned for him to step aside: "I'll take a look at Grandpa, is he in the study?" ”
"Yes." The servant nodded, and hurriedly knocked softly, "Master Lang, the fourth lady and the seventh lady of the He family are here." ”
He Qi Niangzi?
Sun Juncheng couldn't help but put down the paperwork in his hand and said, "Please let them in." ”
Hearing this, the servant pushed the closed door open, and then bowed slightly: "Fourth lady, He Qiniang, please." ”
The two stepped into the study and saw Sun Juncheng sitting at the table to deal with things.
"Grandpa." Sun Rujin saluted.
He Lingjiang also saluted with her: "Juncheng." ”
When Sun Juncheng saw her visit to the mansion, he knew that he had something serious to say: "Jin Niang, He Qi Niangzi is a guest, you go and prepare some refreshments." ”
Sun Rujin knew that this was the meaning of letting himself lead people to avoid.
She didn't know what Grandpa was busy with, but since he didn't tell him, he had other plans in his heart.
Sun Rujin knew that he couldn't help much, so he didn't ask, but smiled knowingly: "Grandpa and Ling Jiang will wait for a while, and I'll take someone to prepare." ”
So saying, she withdrew with her maidservant, and looked at the servant in front of the door: "You will go with me." Later, if you have more stuff to prepare, you can also help. ”
"Four ladies......" The servant was stunned for a moment, and looked into the study for some reason.
"Go ahead." Sun Juncheng's voice came.
"Yes."
Since Lord Lang has ordered this, the servant also followed the four ladies to prepare refreshments.
He Zheng and Aman also consciously retreated, reached out and closed the door of the study, and then quietly stood aside.
Sun Juncheng looked at Pei Yu who was following behind He Lingjiang, and the servants and maids beside him all consciously avoided it, and the one in front of him was too blind.
He clenched his right hand into a fist to his lips and coughed.
He Lingjiang didn't move, just looked for a chair by himself, and sat down peacefully.
The guard who had been following her didn't even raise an eyebrow.
Sun Juncheng coughed again, and said hesitantly: "He Qi Niangzi...... You guard......"
He Lingjiang then understood: "Ah...... This is not my bodyguard. ”
"And who is this?" Sun Juncheng raised his eyebrows.
He Ling Jiang tilted his head, raised his chin at Pei You, and motioned for him to say it himself.
Standing behind her, Pei You, who was silent, raised his head.
With just one movement, Sun Juncheng felt that the momentum around him changed, and he was suddenly cold and compelling, making people dare not look at him directly.
Immediately afterwards, Sun Juncheng saw him walk out from behind He Lingjiang and walked in front of him: "I am the prince of Zhenbei, Pei You." ”
Who?
The prince of Zhenbei?
Pei You?
Sun Juncheng couldn't help but pluck out his ears, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.
The northern border is nearly 5,000 miles away from Linchuan, and most of the Great Zhou territory is separated by it, so how could the prince of Zhenbei suddenly appear in Linchuan?
What's more, more than ten years ago, he also saw the king of Zhenbei in Yingdu, the king of Zhenbei has Hu blood, the bridge of his nose is high, and his eyes are also deep, even if Zhenri is in that place in the north, his complexion is a little fairer than ordinary people, which can be described as very handsome.
The one in front of him, although he is imposing and has a very handsome face, is really not much similar to the king of the north of the town.
He Lingjiang saw the changes on his face, and knew that he had already turned a few times in his heart.
She looked at Pei You, who had a cold face in front of her, and couldn't help but nod her face at him with amusement.
Pei You's face was even more chilled when he saw this, what's the matter? Isn't this appearance worthy of the prince of Zhenbei?
He took out an object from his arms and threw it lightly on Sun Juncheng's table: "The face has been decorated, this identity token can't be faked." ”
Sun Juncheng picked it up and looked at it, and saw that in the palm-sized token, there were several big characters engraved with "Zhenbei Wang Shizi", and there was a unique symbol of the Zhenbei Wang family on it.
Sun Juncheng's eyes widened in disbelief, and he looked at He Lingjiang again, seeing He Lingjiang smiling at him, he hurriedly stood up from the table and bowed: "Meet Pei Shizi." ”
Pei You stretched out his hand and raised his arm: "I don't have any official position in the court, so Sun Juncheng doesn't need to be polite." ”
The corners of Sun Juncheng's mouth twitched secretly, you don't have any official position, but your grandfather does, that is, the title of your son in this world has suppressed the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
He straightened up according to Pei You's strength: "I don't know why the prince suddenly came here?" ”
"I'm here to investigate the case of illegal iron sales." Pei You said lightly.
Selling ironware?
Sun Juncheng doesn't know why, does this have anything to do with their Linchuan? Why did the private sale of ironware in the north come to Linchuan to investigate?
He suddenly thought of the case of private copper mining that he was investigating recently, and turned his head to look at He Lingjiang.
He Lingjiang did not tell Sun Fei all the truth before, but he came today to talk to Sun Juncheng about this matter: "I haven't told Juncheng that the mine that was reported to be privately mining copper ore is actually mining a large amount of iron ore. ”
Privately mined iron ore!
Sun Juncheng couldn't help but be shocked, this is a little more serious than mining private copper, and Pei Shizi clearly mentioned that he came to investigate the case of illegal iron sales, isn't it......
He didn't dare to think about it for a while.
In his ears were He Lingjiang's words: "In that mine, there are copper and iron, and most of them are iron, so they will be targeted." ”
She took out an account book from her arms and handed it to Sun Juncheng: "Judging from the private accounts recorded by the prison collector, this place has been mined for nearly a year, and the iron ore has been produced as much as one million catties. ”
"Pei Shizi found someone selling iron and Beidi privately in the north, followed the clues all the way, and arrived in our Linchuan County, and then found this mining cave that was being mined privately......"
She didn't finish the rest of the words, but Sun Juncheng already understood everything.
I am afraid that this privately mined iron mine was used to make iron tools, and even sold privately to Beidi.
His face was bitter.
This is a great crime of treason with the enemy!
Iron ore is something that the imperial court controls, and if the copper mine of the previous dynasty was still allowed to be mined privately, this iron ore has never dared to let go.
In the small county of Linchuan, iron ore was smuggled and made into iron tools and sold to enemy countries. How did the officials up and down in Linchuan do things?
At this time, once it is found out, the saint will be blamed at that time, not to mention their entire Linchuan County, I am afraid that even the officials in Jiangzhou will not be able to do well!
