Chapter 119: Entering the Palace
Chapter 110: Entering the Palace
Yan Shi held the whip in his hand, and forced him to turn his head to look out the window with Yan Shenxing's chin: Looking down from the second floor, Yan Ji remembered that at the gate of the main store of Qianzhuang, ten soldiers and ruffians fell in a row, blocking the gate of Qianzhuang tightly.
There was a group of merchants stranded outside the door, daring to stare at the group of ruffians angrily, the shopkeeper in the door jumped to his feet in a hurry, and received the money.
Yan Shi said flatly: "You didn't discuss with me, you used the guard force of Qianzhuang without authorization, and you dragged your feet to do things, leaving horses and feet for people to chase after you, do you have any explanation?" ”
Yan Shen Xing was uneasy, he had lost Lan's whereabouts since that night, and he had known that he would not go to Yanfu to rob people, but now he was so anxious, where did he still have the heart to deal with Yan Shi, he tilted his head and said angrily: "My mother is gone, where is the old man still in the mood to care about so much." ”
Yan Shi grinned, and suddenly remembered that Zhu said that his teeth were not good, so he smiled again, and said with a pout: "If you send this group of soldiers away, I will tell you the whereabouts of my sister-in-law." ”
Yan Shenxing's eyes lit up when he heard this, he grabbed Yan Shi's shoulders and said eagerly, "Do you know her whereabouts?" Where is she? ”
Yan Shi didn't answer him, a pair of eyes looked downstairs, Yan Shen followed his line of sight, the group of soldiers called for wine and food, drew their fists, and someone asked loudly: "Why hasn't the replacement brother come yet?" ”
Yan Shenxing snorted coldly and sneered, "Don't you just want to see my skills?" ”
With that, holding the window edge with one hand, he actually leaped down from the second floor, and disappeared into the crowd in a few flashes.
The soldiers were full of oil, full of wine and food, and lay on their backs on the ground, crying like thunder. When I was sleeping, my head was cool, and when I opened my eyes, I saw a group of naughty boys taking off their pants and untying them, and they jumped up from the ground to catch these little rabbits.
A group of peddlers and pawns rushed in, just in the middle of the way, and the naughty boys immediately flashed into the crowd and disappeared.
The soldiers scolded and returned to the gate of the money village, and couldn't help but be stunned, the gate of the money village was firmly occupied by a group of old men, the old man and the old lady, all gray hair, the wrinkles on their faces piled up thousands of layers, supporting each other, snorting with a puffed mouth.
When they were only three feet away from those old men, half of the old men fell to the ground, and the other half immediately shouted: "Killed, killed, killed by soldiers." "Full of spirit, not at all like a master who is about to die.
This Yan family money village was already on the downtown street, one morning was blocked by the soldiers, it has already spread throughout the entire block, there are many people who came to see the excitement, and immediately a bunch of passers-by came to point fingers, and there were good things to call the city to catch quickly.
Seeing that they couldn't do anything, the group of veterans waved their fists at the group of old men and left hatefully.
The old men and ladies got up from the ground with agility and flashed into the crowd with great agility, and in a moment there was no trace of them.
Yan Shenxing and the group of peddlers and pawns got together, watched from a distance, and when they saw this, they arched their hands and said, "Thank you brothers for your support." ”
Looking closely, the group of peddlers and pawns were all raw, fierce-looking, and by no means good, and shouted at Yan Shenxing: "Big brother is outside." "It should be, it should be." "Thanks to the eldest brother, I can support the family."
Wei Liao stood up straight, and meticulously told Yan Lingyun about the incident of the soldiers and ruffians harming the Yan family's money village, Yan Lingyun's eyes narrowed slightly, shot out a little cold light, and snorted coldly: "Forget it, this matter should have nothing to do with the Yan family, the senior sister wrote that someone went to rob the child, hum, it must be the family's doing." ”
He rolled his eyes, glanced at Wei Liao, and asked sharply, "That night, why did you deliberately disrupt the defense of the mansion?!" ”
Mei's health has been getting better these days, the rich family has secretly sent a letter, and the bodies of the fourth and fifth ladies have also stabilized.
Yang Mu made Zhu's hands clean three times, until his hands were wrinkled by hot hand bubbles, and then reluctantly handed her an account book, and repeatedly told Zhu to be sure to read it with a handkerchief.
Taking advantage of his turn, Zhu reached out and wiped two handfuls on the account book, picked up the handkerchief, and gently flipped through the account book.
Seeing that the entries in the account book were clear, but there was nothing unusual, it was just a large household's accumulated records for many years, she remembered that when she first entered the study, Xiaomei had told her that it was a large household that bought and sold a large amount of money, and it would make another book, but it was never seen after that, and it was actually here in Yangmu.
After turning it over in twos and twos, he looked at Yang Mu with a puzzled face, what is there to see about this?
Yang Mu didn't have any impatience, he instructed Zhu to open the account book, and explained one by one: "Here, the new women's robes and jackets, three sets of four seasons, do you see anything?" ”
Zhu was confused, shook his head very honestly, Yang Mu raised his hand folding fan and knocked her head fiercely, and said in a deep voice: "The head of this family married a concubine. ”
Zhu instantly opened his eyes wide, flipped through the account book, looked at it carefully, and said with some understanding: "This new dress is enough for the four seasons at once, it can be seen that it has added a new master, and it has not made the clothes of the next person, which means that the status of the new master is not high," she raised her head, her eyes were shining, and asked, "But so?" ”
Yang Mu saw that she was a little proud, and poured a basin of cold water on her head: "Then why is the head of the family marrying a concubine, not his son?" How many concubines are this accepting, are they favored or not? ”
Zhu Moran, put away his neglect, stood up suddenly, took a deep look, and said earnestly: "Please also ask Mr. for advice." ”
Yang Mu sat down far away from her, took a sip of tea, and said: "From the number of seasonal clothes ordered by each large family, we can judge the increase or decrease of the population, from the material of the clothes, we can see the status of each room, and from the clothes of the people, we can distinguish the recent situation of this family, whether it is thriving or sunset." ”
……
Unconsciously, an afternoon passed, and finally ended today's class, Bamboo moved his stiff neck and shoulders, Yang Mu took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped his hands, glanced at Bamboo, pointed to the account book on the table and said, "You copy this account book for me again tonight." ”
Zhu Yi was stunned and asked, "Why?" ”
Yang Mu glanced at her and said, "It's dirty, I don't want it." By the way, when you copy, you must first clean your hands, and then put on a handkerchief, if you touch it, copy it again for me. ”
After that, Yang Mu dropped the bamboo of the Yu pawn, and when he was about to push the door out, he added without looking back: "Check it tomorrow." ”
Day by day, bamboo night and night copy the ledger to the third watch, ** when tired words don't want to say, during the day and listen to Yang Mu's lectures, once distracted, the head was knocked on the folding fan, and I don't know how many folding fans Yang Mu threw away.
Zhu is like a sponge absorbing water every day to learn all kinds of knowledge taught by Yang Mu, she has an imminent sense of crisis, home, can't just fall like this, Zhang's plan must be implemented, the Sun family, the Xu family, Yan Lingyun, you and so on are added to me today, and he will return it ten times a day.
Xiaoju sat in the main seat of the flower hall, and Mrs. Xu sat aside, listening to her arrange various chores in an orderly manner, with a thoughtful look on her face.
After the stewards returned and quietly retreated, Mrs. Xu looked at her quietly for a long time, sighed lightly and said, "What do you think will happen if your seventh sister enters the palace?" ”
Xiaoju thought for a moment and replied without hesitation: "If you do evil, you will harm the whole family." ”
Mrs. Xu looked directly at Xiaoju's eyes and said slowly, "What if you enter the palace for them?" ”
Xiaoju was silent for a long time, looked back at Mrs. Xu with a pair of eyes, and said firmly: "I'll go." ”
When Zhu got the news, the wood was already in the boat, and Xu Qiyuan wanted to bring the twins into the palace only known to the sisters and Mrs. Xu, but the news that Xiaoju was going to enter the palace for the draft was known to the whole world.
Bamboo was caught off guard, and she sat there in a daze, clutching the account book on the table with one hand, and unconsciously ravaging it.
Yang Mu put his hands behind his back, facing out of the window, as if he was intoxicated by the twilight of the sunset, and said flatly: "The emperor has an edict, in order to prevent the harem from forming a party, a family only allows one daughter to enter the palace as a concubine." In this way, Miss and Miss Seven do not need to enter the palace. ”
Zhu raised his head suddenly and asked, "Then why can Xu Qiyuan arrange for my two younger sisters to enter the palace at one time?" ”
Yang Mu turned around and stared at her, his eyes were as deep as the sea, "The maid privately selected by the queen is not registered in the inner court, Xu Qiyuan is really powerful, and the only loophole in this edict has also been caught by him." Now Xu Qiyuan has been promoted to the second grade of sacrificial wine, and the holy family is thick. ”
Zhu gritted his teeth and chanted: "Xu Qiyuan, Xu Qiyuan ......" over and over again, this person's name, you must keep it firmly in mind, and when you ask for debts in the future, don't find the wrong enemy.
Hate someone's guts!
After accepting the facts, the bamboo immediately began to plan, the family has been supplying cloth and clothes for the palace for many years, and the leaders of the palaces and the eunuchs and the female officials have a good relationship, for the sake of the younger sister, the bamboo did not hesitate to use all the resources accumulated by the family over the years.
All those who were on errands in the palace were given red envelopes, and all the palace ladies and ladies also went through the door, and they all said hello in advance, as long as Xiaoju fell to the title of the lowest palace maid, and then found a light and unpopular errand, it is best to be a place where the emperor will never set foot in, stay for a few years, and leave the palace at the age of twenty, still young.
Zhu even ventured to meet with Xiaoju before entering the palace, Xiaoju didn't know that Zhu had died once, only when she could get out of bed, seeing that she was haggard, and asked Zhu to go back to recuperate.
