Chapter 954: Mistakes Are Mistakes
Chapter 954
In the elegant room on the second floor of the dazzling color workshop, Erfu and Bai Jiao sat opposite each other, both with sad faces, and finally Erfu spoke first to break the heaviness, her expression was slightly slow, looking at Bai Jiao who was wringing her eyebrows and thinking hard, she smiled reluctantly, and pretended to joke lightly: "You are better here, although the fourth master is now grounded in the Zongren Mansion, but it is easy for no one to dare to come to your door to find trouble, I am worried, I thought that Tong Jiashi was a good one before, and I wanted to be able to coexist peacefully with her, but I didn't expect her to disgust me more than Li's!"
"Boss, you're exaggerating!
What is the character of the Tong Jia side Fujin in your house, Bai Jiao has never seen it with her own eyes, and it is not good to evaluate, but I think she is also a smart person, otherwise this good thing of entering the fourth master's mansion for the side Fujin will not be her turn, so she will not go against you at this time.
Because the fourth master will come out of the Zongren Mansion safe and sound sooner or later, if you let the fourth master know that she is still competing with you at such a critical juncture, then she will definitely not spare her, even if it is to leave a good impression on the fourth master, she will fully cooperate with you. When Bai Jiao heard this, she smiled lightly, she knew that Erfu had come to ask for her own ideas, but she didn't expose her careful thoughts, and explained softly.
Because she understands better than Tong Jiashi that she and Erfu are truly prosperous, Regardless of whether Erfu can sit firmly on the throne of Fu Jin, it does not have much impact on her, but she understands that the reason why she can still sit firmly in the big shopkeeper is inseparable from Erfu, once Erfu falls out of favor, or is disgusted by the fourth master, she will also be unlucky, which is why even if the dazzling color shop and the convenience shop are no longer part of Erfu, she will still be willing to listen to Erfu's dispatch.
In addition, this is also inseparable from the fact that Erfu is her savior, otherwise with the dividends she has received from the dazzling color workshop over the years, she would have found a picturesque place early on, guarding the money that is enough for her to eat, drink and chew for several lifetimes, and live a comfortable and comfortable life.
"I'm afraid she won't understand this, before I came out today, she and the Li family were still clamoring for me to come forward, to get Concubine De's Niangniang's will, I have to go to the Zongren Mansion to visit the fourth master, you said that she is also a lady from a big family, and her mother's family is also a relative of the emperor, where would she not understand the significance of the Zongren Mansion to the clan, I really don't know if she is pretending to be stupid, or she is really stupid!" Speaking of Tong Jia's family, Erfu's tone suddenly became cold, she smiled bitterly and picked up the tea, moistened her throat, and complained softly.
"In my opinion, it's more like a temptation, or a performance.
Most of the servants around you are specially arranged by the fourth master to serve you, and they must be more loyal to the fourth master, plus the ears and eyes and spies everywhere in your house, those are all taken care of by Chen Fu and Chen Gonggong, do you think Tong Jiashi was so anxious when he heard that the fourth master had an accident, and even the rules and etiquette were thrown behind, and when an ordinary man heard about it, he would be moved, and it would be more conducive to her gaining a firm foothold in the mansion, I think even if you agree with her to go to the Zongren Mansion, she will not go, but you were made good use of her.
The fourth master was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion with his front feet, and you were busy chasing after him......
People who know your temperament, know that you are worried about the fourth master, and those who don't know your temperament are afraid that they will think that you and the fourth master have some conspiracy, and it is also thanks to the fact that when you go to see the fourth master, you have always been accompanied by Zongwei, otherwise it is the long live master in the palace, I am afraid that it will inevitably be suspicious. Bai Jiao was not as innocent as Erfu thought, she pondered for a moment, and her face gloomy leaned into Erfu's ear, whispering.
Because Tong Jia's family is a famous family carefully adjusted and taught by everyone's girlfriends, even if she is confused, it will be limited after all, not to mention that if such a lady marries, there must be an old lady who has been waiting for many years to follow, and there is a sudden change in the house, the old lady will not fail to remind Tong Jia's and persuade Tong Jia's to be calm and patient, so as not to make mistakes in Tong Jia's busyness, but fall into other people's calculations, do bad things with good intentions, and break the arrangement of the fourth master, so ......
Tong Jia's play can only be understood as a plan to kill two birds with one stone.
First, he can borrow other people's mouths to show his concern for the fourth master;
And the second is to remind Erfu again, so that Erfu made the decision to visit the fourth master in the Zongren Mansion in a hurry.
Facts have proved that Tong Jiashi really showed Erfu the way, at least when Erfu left Yonghe Palace, she made up her mind to go back to the house directly, and take care of the gate of Prince Yong's Mansion for the fourth master, otherwise there would be any mistakes in the mansion, but after seeing Tong Jiashi and Li's family, she changed her decision, thinking about meeting the fourth master and Yiertai before making plans.
Hearing Bai Jiao say this, Erfu suddenly realized, she scratched her head with a wry smile, and sighed: "Sure enough, I'm still not very good at doing this kind of intriguing thing." ”
After saying this, she asked Bai Jiao to keep an eye on the rumors.
Erfu hopes to be like last time, from those inconspicuous small places, to find out the bad guys who framed the fourth master, and help the fourth master to come out of the meditation hall of the Zongren Mansion earlier, that cramped, dim, and damp place, even if the person with a firm heart lives in it for a few days, it is easy to get sick.
Fortunately, the fourth master has a calm personality.
Thinking so, she got into the carriage back home, holding a brocade box in her hand.
The brocade box contains some plain silver gilt hairpins sold by the dazzling color workshop this season, which is also a habit she has developed over the years, although these hairpins are sold leftovers, but they are also novel and chic, and it is very suitable to reward the servants in the house, if it is not for Erfu is the owner of the dazzling color workshop, such a good thing, it really can't fall into her hands, because there are many ordinary women who like the jewelry of the dazzling color workshop, and are reluctant to have the silver money in their pockets, just waiting for the season discount, Erfu left these seasonal jewelry, only need to pay a cost price。
In the past, when she got these jewelry, she always had to take a closer look, because these jewelry is really beautiful, silver and gold shiny jewelry, inlaid with various colored gemstones, insisting that it can be called a work of art, and the ingenuity of the craftsmen in the dazzling color workshop is more exquisite and ingenious than the famous products made by well-known designers in later generations, and each piece is handmade, which is enough to ensure the uniqueness of these jewelry.
But this year's Erff is not in the mood to appreciate these jewelry that she can't put down, if it weren't for the lady of the dazzling shop to hand her such a box of gold and silver hairpins as usual, she couldn't think of this kind of thing at all, so as soon as she got into the carriage, she handed the brocade box to the poet who was waiting next to her, and directly took out the booklet in the sleeve tube, and looked at it carefully.
The booklet is full of all kinds of information collected by Bai Jiao.
Sometimes, from a woman's clothing and jewelry, you can see a lot of problems, and Xuancai Fang, as the most famous rouge jewelry shop in Beijing, has always been very favored by the upper class of women, even if it is an ordinary woman from the common people, but also proud to have a hair ornament produced by Xuancai Fang, at this time Xuancai Fang is like the luxury jewelry that has been sought after by countless people in later generations, so Bai Jiao can find a lot of clues from it, such as which Fujin is most willing to invest in himself, and often spend a lot of money to buy those complicated, Exquisite treasure-encrusted hair ornaments, and countless dowries, it means that her husband and mother's family will be greedy, and so on.
What Erfu wants to find from this is which Fujin suddenly became generous, because she can find the person where the eighth child is grounded, only the officials of the DPRK and China, she doesn't think that anyone will work hard and send people all over the capital to find the place where the eighth child is grounded, if someone would really do this, it would have been discovered that something was wrong.
Because the closer people get to the center of power, the more they understand the truth that spies are everywhere.
Only ordinary people will think that the beggars in the streets and alleys and everywhere are a group of stragglers who are completely not controlled by the big guys, if this is the case, the officers and soldiers of Shuntianfu have already come out to drive people out, the capital is the first good area, the foot of the Son of Heaven, but all the forces that can appear here are all big people standing behind, and the one who has the tightest control over the capital is the long live lord in the palace.
At this time, the booklet in Erfu's hand, in addition to the list of regular customers and purchase records of the dazzling shop sorted out by Bai Jiao, there was also a list of regular customers of several convenience shops in the inner city and outside the front door.
Fan Yao, who lives in the vicinity of the Dengshikou, because his family has a large population and is an ordinary official from a poor family, does not have much ancestral business to rely on, so his life has always been relatively frugal, which can be seen from the number of various vegetables, fruits, meat and eggs purchased in his house, but in recent times, it seems that there has been a change, and the precious ingredients that have not been purchased by Fan Mansion have also changed for the family a complete set of official kiln porcelain that is more than twice as expensive as the porcelain produced by the private kiln, including vases, dendrobiums, tea bowls, tableware, In addition to the records in the booklet, a young man chatted with a servant woman who came to buy it, and it seemed that the Fan Mansion had also invited Yaji from the nearby dental shop to help purchase a large piece of fertile land.
This is definitely the rhythm of winning the lottery in one day, Erfu sighed secretly, remembering this imperial history called Fan Yao, because looking at the record time on the booklet, it seems that Fan Mansion was on the third day after the fourth master was assassinated, and suddenly became rich, if according to the fourth master's speculation, the mastermind behind the scenes changed his strategy after the assassination failed, then the sudden wealth of this Fan Mansion became a little suspicious.
Of course, Erf didn't make a hasty judgment either.
The imperial history supervised hundreds of officials, maybe it was this Fan Yao Fan Yushi who discovered the handle of a corrupt official, and the other party bribed him with a lot of money, so the Fan Mansion suddenly became rich.
However, she didn't miss Fan Yao, she really didn't know much about the officials of the court, but Chen Fu, who had always cooperated with the fourth master to collect all kinds of information about the ministers of the court, would definitely not neglect such an important office as the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and although Fan Yao was one of the most inconspicuous imperial histories of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Chen Fu would also know something, even if Chen Fu didn't understand, it would be much easier to investigate Fan Yao's past records than her, a confused woman, so she copied Fan Yao's name as soon as she returned home, and ordered Zhao Dezhu to send Chen Fu, who didn't know what he was busy in the front yard。
In addition, she did not forget to use the carrier pigeon in the backyard to send a message to the shopkeeper of Baiweiju, so that Baiweiju will send the guest records of Baiweiju after the year, maybe this person suddenly became rich, not too public, but between the two sides, there must always be a process of contact, anyone is pulled into the water can not happen out of thin air, and what she wants to find is this process, Baiweiju is a famous restaurant in Beijing, elegantly furnished, and good sound insulation, the young guys who serve are all handsome little guys, if someone really wants to find a place to talk about things, and do not want to be in such an elegant place as the teahouse, this Baiweiju is definitely a good place to choose.
Of course, she didn't pull down various leisure places such as teahouses, fireworks and willow alleys, painting boats, gambling houses, etc., but because of her identity or strength, she didn't set foot in these places much, and she couldn't arrange people if she wanted to, so she arranged these things to Chen Fu's side.
It turns out that the mastermind behind the scenes is not much smarter than Erfu, and the guest records of Baiweiju soon found out that Fan Yao had entered and exited the Spring, Autumn, Winter and Summer Pavilion on the third floor many times.
Each elegant room on the third floor has two rooms inside and outside, there is a round table carved from rosewood outside, with a rotatable turntable on the top, there is an arhat bed near the window to sit and rest, near the position on the side of the patio, there is a small window that can be opened, guests can listen to the chatter of the people downstairs, and the inner room is a boudoir with a different style, or warm and elegant, or quiet and chic, or magnificent, or sitting on the ground, in short, it is an extraordinary place carefully designed by Erfu and a group of craftsmen, so everyone who can come to the third floor to dine is a real distinguished guest, not only has a heavy family background, but also has a noble status, Ordinary wealthy businessmen are not qualified to go up, and under the restrictions of various regulations, there are very few distinguished guests who can go up to the third floor to dine every day.
It is precisely because of this that Erfu was able to discover the records of Fan Yao's entry and exit so quickly.
She looked at Fan Yao's records of entering and leaving Baiweiju, smiled coldly, and muttered in a tone full of mockery and disdain: "I didn't expect that this Fan Yao Fan is really a hidden rich man." ”
God knows, because of her whims, she made such a nondescript restaurant, imagining that with the strict regulations on the third and fourth floors, it attracted a large number of distinguished guests, and the result was ...... I was happy in vain.
Because the first and second floors of Baiweiju are full of hot scenes from the opening, only the ultra-luxurious private rooms on the third and fourth floors have obviously spent a lot of money on decoration, and they have bought a lot of antiques, calligraphy and paintings to improve their taste, but the monthly income may not be able to catch up with the income of the scattered seats on the first floor, if she was really reluctant to tear down the private rooms that she worked so hard to build, she would have opened the third and fourth floors to the outside world.
It's really wrong, it's wrong, I didn't expect it to be of great use here.
