Chapter 477: Profiteering
It wasn't until Princess Qingyang was buried that the Qiu family knew that all four members of the Qiao family were gone.
Qiu Amitabha Buddha sighed and said: "Good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil, it's not that you don't report it, the time has not yet come." "Back then, because of Heshou's evil thoughts, so many people died in their Guogong Mansion and lost so much money. Now, this retribution has finally come.
Seeing this, Li's mother swallowed the following words back. Now people outside are criticizing, saying that the death of Princess Qingyang, the concubine and others was done by Princess Jing and the Guogong Mansion. Don't tell the old lady this: "What the old lady said." Immediately changed the topic, and said that if you want me to say, it is still the four girls of our family who are kind-hearted. Saved so many children, but it was a great merit. ”
Qiu Shi turned the Buddhist beads in his hand and said, "Yes, this child has been kind-hearted since he was a child. "Not only is it kind, but it also makes people feel distressed.
Mother Li smiled and said, "The girl must have been influenced by Madame." This is not a compliment to Qiu, but from the heart. Because Mother Li didn't think Yuxi was kind-hearted, but she was a person who knew kindness. Thinking back then, she was also wary of the four girls at the beginning, and later she was relieved to see that the four girls were indeed sincere to her wife.
Qiu put down the Buddhist beads in his hand and said, "Speaking of which, this kid has been going to the northwest for almost two years! ”
Mother Li said with a smile: "Madame, don't worry, the fourth girl must be doing well." "Uncle values it so much, it's okay if it's not good. An experienced person like Li's mother does not think that fine clothes and food are good, but that husband and wife can live a comfortable life when they are together.
Qiu put down the Buddha beads and said, "In a few days, Jianye will go to the northwest." Han Jianye was supposed to leave in late July, but the Qiu clan didn't agree. said that it was easy to get heat stroke on a hot day, and insisted that Han Jianye wait until September.
Mother Li reassured: "Madam, the second master went to the northwest, and the fourth girl will take care of it, so it will be fine." Moreover, the fourth aunt is so powerful in the war, there will definitely be no more spring in the future. ”
Qiu coughed and said, "I remember that my mother said that her raised child was a hundred years old and ninety-nine years old, and I now understand what my mother said." Speaking of which, she hasn't seen her father for almost 20 years, and even her appearance is blurred.
Princess Qingyang died, and Yuchen, as a nephew and daughter-in-law, also followed King Jing to the princess's mansion to incense Princess Qingyang.
He Shou, who was kneeling on the ground and burning paper, stared at Yuchen deadly, if his eyes could kill people, Yuchen would definitely be too dead to die anymore.
Yuchen put on the incense and said to Heshou: "Cousin, please mourn." That sad look seems to empathize with Kazushou.
King Jing looked at Heshou Fang's eyes and was very unhappy if he wanted to eat Yuchen, so he took Yuchen back after the incense. In the carriage, King Jing said, "Come again when the funeral is due, and don't come at any other time." ”
Yuchen said with an aggrieved face: "I know that my cousin said that it was my aunt who killed me, and I have no grudge against my aunt, so I really don't understand why my cousin would say such a thing." ”
King Jing said with a distressed face: "Don't pay attention to her, she is a madman now, catch whoever bites whom." After her aunt's funeral, she will never be able to leave the East Palace again. So, you don't have to take her to heart. "King Jing didn't like Heshou since he was a child. used to be arrogant, but later I didn't know what medicine I had taken wrong, and a county lord actually went to do business with business. In the end, she also came up with a mess of opening her eyes, and she can also open her eyes with her character, and there are many people who can open her eyes that day. Of course, King Jing was not grateful for Heshou saving his ninth brother, but felt that Heshou was extremely evil.
Not long after returning to the palace, King Jing was called by the prince to discuss state affairs again. Yuchen sent King Jing to the gate of the courtyard, and after King Jing left, she turned back into the house.
Mama Gui lowered her voice and said, "Princess, you say, did Princess Qingyang really die of illness?" Qiao Meng's death was Yuchenbu's bureau, but Princess Qingyang's death really had nothing to do with Yuchen. No matter how much Princess Qingyang is, Yuchen doesn't dare to kill the killer. Otherwise, if she murders someone in the royal family, once she is caught, even King Jing will not be able to protect her.
Yuchen frowned and said, "If it is said that he died of illness, it is too coincidental. But if it wasn't for the death of the disease, neither the doctor nor the doctor could find out the slightest problem. Yuchen also felt strange about this.
Mama Gui said: "Princess, do you think it will be Grandpa Guo......" Based on the information they have, it is inferred that Qiao Meng's son is the hand of Grandpa Guo. The death of the princess, Mama Gui guessed that it may also be the hand of Grandpa Guo.
Yuchen shook his head and said, "This matter is over, don't interfere anymore." Without the backing of Princess Qingyang, Heshou is not even a paper tiger. "What opens the eye, what can predict the risk. He couldn't even predict the catastrophe of his own relatives' bloodline, and it would be a joke if the prince believed that she had the ability to predict.
Mama Gui felt that it was better to cut the grass and eradicate the roots: "Leaving the county lord of Heshou is always a scourge." "He Shou now believes that his master is the murderer of her family, if she doesn't get rid of it, if there is a leak in some place one day, she will take advantage of the loophole, and the consequences will be unimaginable. According to Mama Gui's idea, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves.
Yuchen didn't want to let go of Heshou, but now the time is not right: "It's not appropriate to do it for the time being." "If Heshou is killed again, her suspicion will really not be able to get rid of. Even if she wants to die with life, she doesn't have to do it. He Shou offended so many people before, but now he has lost his momentum and wants to get rid of her. Don't say anything else, let's just talk about the Meng family, she killed the eldest son of the family.
If you want to talk about the death of Princess Qingyang, Han Jianming is also a little strange. Although he didn't quite believe that Princess Qingyang died of illness, he really couldn't find a more reasonable explanation for this reason.
Mr. Zhao said: "Grandpa Guo, do you say that it is the princess's hand?" In addition to respecting the princess, Mr. Zhao does not think that other people have the ability to make Princess Qingyang die silently.
Han Jianming shook his head and said, "It won't be Yuchen." If Qiao Meng is Yuchen's hand, he believes it. But Princess Qingyang has a special identity, and Yuchen will not be so reckless.
Han Gao said outside: "Grandpa Guo, someone from Fujian is here." "Since Han Jianming was in charge of the Guogong Mansion, he has been in frequent contact with the Fujian side.
Han Jianming saw the person who came, and first asked, "Is my grandfather in good health?" The old man is old, and now he is in his sixties, but fortunately, his body has always been very strong.
Knowing that his grandfather, uncle and others were fine, Han Jianming took a thick stack of letters. In this, in addition to the letter to him and Qiu's family, there is also an official letter, an official letter to Mr. Chen's rehabilitation.
Looking at the official letter, Han Jianming said: "This thing is just for the second brother to take to the northwest." "It was also Han Jianming's request, so he was very efficient. Otherwise, don't think about it for a year or two.
Mr. Zhao said: "The days of the fourth girl and her uncle in the northwest are not easy!"
Han Jianming sneered: "The household department doesn't have much money, but can't you take out the tens of thousands of taels of silver given to the Salesian Institute? ”
Mr. Zhao said: "Grandpa Guo, Yu Xiang did this, and he didn't regard his uncle as an ally at all. "If you treat Yunqing as an ally, you won't be stuck so dead.
A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of Han Jianming's mouth: "Yu Xiang, that is the person who dares to refute even the prince's words." Do you think he will treat Yunqing as an ally? The original cooperation was just to pull Qin Zhao down. Now he is using this to put pressure on Yun Qing, wanting Yun Qing to submit to him!" he said why Yu Xiang was so easy to talk to before, and he was simply responsive to their requests. Now that I know it, people have already had a countermeasure.
Mr. Zhao said: "What if Yunqing doesn't surrender? Is it that he has been stuck and does not give money? He is not afraid of the mutiny of the Northwest Army. "Where is there a war without food?
Han Jianmin said: "It depends on what choice their husband and wife make. "If you can solve the problem of lack of money by yourself, it is equivalent to controlling the army of 100,000 in the palm of your hand. If you want to surrender to the family, he can also help the front bridge to build a line.
Mr. Zhao said: "Military spending, that is a gap of millions of dollars, if you want to solve it yourself, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky." ”
Han Jianming said: "Then it depends on their ability." "If it can be resolved, Yunqing's feud is just around the corner.
And with this Yuci, he got the evidence of the Xu family's crime of selling grain, grass and cloth to the northern captives. These incriminating evidence were personally sent by Mr. Xia to Yuxi.
Mr. Xia said: "Madam, these are all hand-copied, not original. However, our people know where the original is, and they will be able to get it when the house is raided. "If the original is stolen now, not only will the fine work that has been inserted in it be dangerous, but the Xu family will also get the news. At that time, the Xu family will definitely escape from Xinping City with their property.
Yuxi looked down at the account, only looked at a few lines, and said in a lost voice: "Outside the gate, three catties of salt can be exchanged for a sheep." "A pound of salt in Yucheng is usually only nine yuan, and three pounds of salt is only twenty-seven yuan. In Yucheng, a pound of mutton is 12 Wen, and a sheep is only 25 catties, which is also more than 200 yuan. What kind of concept is this, this is equivalent to the price of salt outside the gate is ten times that of Yucheng. That's a huge profit!
Not only is salt very expensive, but even the iron pot used for stir-frying is also ridiculously expensive. Seeing this, Yuxi also understood why the Xu family could live so luxuriously, and who could it be, and they couldn't get rich enough to do this kind of business!
Yuxi asked Mr. Xia and said, "Has Mr. read this account book?" Seeing that Mr. Xia nodded, Yuxi asked another question: "Has the Xu family done a lot of time?"
Mr. Xia said: "It's been more than 20 years! But it was just sneaky before, and there weren't many of them. Since the Xu family married into the Qin family, the Xu family has used the name of the Qin family to sell more and more things outside the customs, and finally sold grain. "It was also too large for the marshal to tolerate it, so he began to investigate. R1148
