No. 278 Bad Things (2)
"Shi Jiu, what's the matter, I just heard that something happened, why did I get involved with King Jin?"
"After King Jin moved out of Jingyang Palace, Jingyang Palace did not change hands, and Jingyang Palace flowed out of the dowry of the Jade Concubine, and King Jin naturally couldn't get rid of it!"
Mei Shijiu was in a hurry to return to Meifu, because he knew that his family would be anxious when he heard the news.
Now, he and King Jin have long been tied together, and if King Jin has an accident, his life will not be easy, and he will even implicate the Mei family.
When Master Mei heard her son say this, her face couldn't hide her anxiety, and she said with luck, "... Although the things flowed out of Jingyang Palace, after all, King Jin moved out, and the Holy Lord summoned him into the palace, so it should be fine for the time being, at most he asked..."
Old Lady Mei was not so optimistic, "Since you are here for King Jin, Jingyang Palace must have already laid out, I'm afraid that King Jin won't be so easy to get out this time, Shi Jiu, you... But what are the plans?"
"Grandfather, father, don't worry, this matter is against King Jin, but King Jin is not as simple as they think, at this time, it is better to be quiet and not to move, first see who is moving before you know how to move."
Mei Shi thought about it all the way when he was nine times, and he probably had a calculation in his heart.
This matter, going around and around, left and right is just two purposes, either for the sake of the Jade Concubine, or someone wants to take the opportunity to get rid of King Jin as soon as possible.
He has already asked people to keep an eye on the movements of the palaces, at this time the prince and King Su will not enter the palace, but they will definitely not stand idly by, after all, they are all involved, and the rest is the most suspicious of King Yue, but this matter does not seem to be the handiwork of King Yue...
"I don't know what's going on in the palace now, there's no news yet..."
"Let's wait!"
If there is any news in the palace, they will soon know that Mei Shijiu has been silently pondering in his heart, although he can't wait for the news in a hurry to move, but he must also seize the time to take precautions and think of some ways to deal with it first.
In this matter, the Prince's Mansion and Suwang's Mansion are very lively.
The prince was convening his protégés to discuss it, and even the queen sent someone to quietly ventilate the palace to discuss how to bite King Su.
The atmosphere in Suwang's Mansion was relatively dull, after all, it happened in the Lu family's Jinguilou.
Uncle Cheng Guo was under a certain amount of pressure, and King Su didn't look very good at this time.
lost one after another, seeing that Emperor Xuan didn't love him as much as before, but at this time, it was this kind of thing.
"Lord Wang, this matter is indeed my brother-in-law's confusion, but this matter understands that this is a calculation..."
"Yes, it's just calculation, why don't you calculate other families? is such a fool as Lu Panda, the Lu family still let him be in charge, not a long brain, this time it's good to be at the fifth child, otherwise... This king will be killed by him!"
Uncle Cheng Guo had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, raised his sleeve to wipe it, and whispered, "Lord Wang, are you saying that this matter is a bureau set up for King Jin?" That would... Who did it?"
"Who did it, this king also wants to know who did it, although it is not against this king, but the Jin Guilou that the Lu family is easy to support is destroyed, this must not be able to open, this king also invested silver, I wanted to add some money to the account, and there are many places to spend silver in the back......
King Su glanced at Uncle Cheng Guo as he spoke, and the meaning in his eyes was too obvious.
Uncle Cheng Guo understood and hurriedly replied: "Lord Wang, don't worry, the Lu family has long said that if the prince wants to use silver, just speak."
As soon as he heard this, King Su's face was obviously much better, and he sighed and said: "Uncle said this, this king has a bottom in his heart, and the Lu family is also an old family, and he started all kinds of business in the early years, which is regarded as an imperial businessman, not to mention the purchase of government offices in various places... It's the materials that the imperial court needs... The Lu family has been in charge all these years, and the silver will naturally not be less, uncle, this king wants to go further, there are many places to spend a lot of silver, uncle just tell the Lu family, let them rest assured, as long as this king is here, the Lu family's business will be thriving."
"That's natural, with the prince and the mother taking care of it, the Lu family will definitely be rich! Lord Wang, the matter of the jade concubine's dowry is against King Jin, so let's wait and see what happens, or..."
King Su narrowed his eyes, and just as he was about to speak, he heard someone report that Yun Shangshu was coming.
King Su hurriedly invited.
Now Su Wang
The relationship between the Fu and the Yun family is different, Yun Chushu is the side concubine of King Su, this is a marriage, and the future of King Su is also related to the future of Yun Shangde, Yun Shangde has no way out, he can only go to the end on the road of King Su, so now, he is also doing his best to help King Su.
And Emperor Xuan will agree to this family business, so why not subsidize King Su's recent loss of power in the court?
Doesn't this mean that he secretly handed over the military department to King Su?
"Wechen meets the prince!"
"Lord Yun is exempt from courtesy, I said that there is no need to be so particular when there are no outsiders, Lord Yun came here at this time, but for the dowry of the Jade Concubine?"
King Su also looks close, there is no way, he has to hold on to the military department.
Yun Shangde sat down, also put on a posture of a close minister, greeted Uncle Cheng Guo and went straight to the topic.
"Lord Wang, Uncle Guo, the lower officials are here for this matter, Lord Wang, this matter, let's not interfere at this time, although the incident happened in Jin Guilou, but now I understand this, that is, someone took over Jin Guilou's trouble, and the Lu family is also a victim, and the prince is not doing anything now, he is the aggrieved party, wait to see how the situation develops!"
"That's exactly what this king thinks, and in the opinion of Lord Evian, this matter... Who is most likely to have done it?"
Su Wang asked tentatively, but he didn't expect to hear any special insights.
This time he wasn't sure who did it.
"Lord Wang, no matter who did it, this matter is very strange, Lord Wang, I heard that there are people who were taken to the Criminal Department for questioning today... The girl in the first snow, this girl... Closer to King Jin, I heard that she only returned to the capital yesterday, and went on a study tour with Su and the old gentleman before, and this person came back, how could it be so coincidental... entered the Jin Guilou, and was identified on the spot that she recognized the dowry of the Jade Concubine, the prince, for the Jin Wang can still understand, but who would deliberately get along with that girl? And then there's... Today's officials are here to talk about this girl..."
There are some things that he can't find out, maybe King Su and Duan Guifei can find out something.
"That girl... This king remembered, Lord Yun, could it be this girl... What's weird? Speaking of this girl, there's one thing... This king also wants to talk to Lord Yun, this king was not good to speak out about this matter before, but now..."
King Su told him about the previous dowry, and Cheng Si's suspicion of Chu Xue, and then stared at Yun Shangde.
Yun Shangde hurriedly waved his hand to explain when he heard this, "Lord Wang, there is no such thing, Xia Guan never let her go to Jinxiu Fang, let alone know these things, Xia Guan doesn't even know how that girl met Mei Shijiu and Jin Wangshi, by the way, Lord Wang, Xia Guan just wants to talk about this matter today, Xia Guan suspects... Doubt the girl's origins!"
"Doubt her origins? She wasn't brought into the Cloud Mansion—" King Su raised his eyebrows and looked puzzled.
"Yes, she was hugged by Yunfu, Lord Wang, Xia Guan suspects... She mightily... It came out of the palace..."
Yun Shangde just guessed, it was some inference without evidence, so he didn't dare to say it too hard.
