Chapter 1380: Going to the Appointment
Song Qingyuan was still surprised just now, King Duan, Princess Duan seemed to put the matter of Qi Peicen being punished and thinking about it behind closed doors.
But I didn't want to, just after such a while, Princess Duan actually found a reason to intercede for Qi Peicen.
"The Qiao family and the Su family are all families who understand righteousness, and I believe that as long as the county lord sincerely changes, they will not take it to heart."
Song Qingyuan smiled and comforted.
"Yes, yes!"
The corners of Princess Duan's mouth twitched, and she smiled unnaturally.
Secret passage in the heart; Isn't this Jinning county lord cool-tempered, but what he said was the same as if he didn't say it.
No matter how powerful the prince of their family is, at least he is a prince, and Petzen is the royal lord.
The Qiao family, as long as the Su family is not stupid, in the open, will be as tolerant and generous as this county lord of Jinning.
As for whether you really don't care about it behind the scenes, who knows?
"I ......"
Princess Duan opened her mouth, wanting to say something.
But when she thought that the smiling woman in front of her would be the future Mrs. Zhenbeihou, she choked back what she wanted to say.
"Then the county lord of Jinning is busy, so I won't bother."
As she spoke, Princess Duan bowed her head, beckoned the two maids behind her, and went out of Ruyi Zhai.
Half an hour later, the teahouse.
Song Qingyuan handed over the affairs at hand to Yang Yunqing, Shen Biqing and Red Sleeves.
took her new coachman, Ah Er, to Mrs. Li's appointment.
"Jinning County Lord, please take a seat!"
As Mrs. Li spoke, the maid beside her pulled out a chair for Song Qingyuan and poured a full cup of tea.
"I don't know why the old lady asked Yuan'er to come today?"
After Song Qingyuan sat down, he asked the reason directly.
This is also because Mrs. Li is a heroic among women, and she is even more contaminated with the heroic and refreshing temperament of a military general.
Therefore, Song Qingyuan did not beat around the bush and asked straight to the point.
"Azhu!"
Old Madam Li listened to Song Qingyuan's words, her head was imperceptible, and she raised her hand to greet her.
The woman, named Azhu, put the box she was holding in her hand and placed it on the table.
With a slight flip of the wrist, the box opens in response to the sound, and it contains all kinds of jewelry, which is colorful and dizzying.
Pearls, jade, jade, and a night pearl the size of an egg.
Song Qingyuan glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze and looked at Old Madam Li calmly.
"The old man heard that Guozijian donated ten prison places to the charity foundation."
Old Madam Li's deep voice was slightly hoarse.
But even so, it still sounds full of neutrality and majesty.
Especially those eyes, tired and old, with wrinkles at the corners of the eyes.
But the fierceness inside, just one glance, can not be ignored, this is a majestic housewife.
Song Qingyuan commented in his heart, thinking secretly.
The children and grandchildren of the Li Mansion are fortunate or unfortunate to have such grandmothers.
Because they may not be able to get the pampering of their ancestors like ordinary families.
But with a strict education, it is easier to raise children and grandchildren into manly husbands who are responsible and dare to take responsibility.
Thinking so, Song Qingyuan's clear eyes looked over and listened intently to what Old Madam Li was going to say next.
At this time, Mrs. Li stretched out her arm and pushed the box on the table in front of Song Qingyuan.
continued, "Guozi supervised ten places for the charitable foundation, and the charitable foundation also reciprocated by building a museum of Chinese culture. ”
"The old man came here today to make a deal with the county lord of Jinning."
"It can also be said that I hope that the county lord of Jinning can do the old man a small favor."
When Mrs. Li said this, she paused.
Song Qingyuan turned his head and looked at the box of jewels again, thoughtfully.
guessed, "But the old lady donated the valuables in this box to a charitable foundation?" ”
"And then the charity foundation is taking out the money to do things for the old lady?"
"The county lord of Jinning is really smart, and he can understand it at all."
Old Madam Li nodded and admitted, "The old body does think so. ”
"Then I wonder what the old lady wants to do?"
Song Qingyuan asked.
With an apologetic look on his face, he explained, "I'm not the only one with the charitable foundation, and since I bring people here, I have to be accountable to them. ”
"I don't know what the old lady did before, Shu Song Qingyuan can't agree."
Song Qingyuan said neither humble nor arrogant, there was a look of shame in his eyes, and he did not mean to retreat.
Even in the face of such a majestic and imposing old woman, she was still not scared.
"The Lord of Jinning County is right!"
Old Madam Li listened to Song Qingyuan's words and nodded.
Not only did he not look angry, but his eyes flashed with approval.
However, she did not directly answer Song Qingyuan's question, but said, "Lord Jinning County, have you ever heard that the border soldiers have not paid money?" ”
"I've heard of it."
Song Qingyuan replied softly.
When she entered the palace that day, the emperor told her about the lack of silver in the court.
Among them, the salaries of the border soldiers have not been paid.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the current saint to rush to attack the charitable foundation.
Thinking of this, Song Qingyuan's dark eyes were enlightened.
"It seems that the county lord of Jinning guessed ......"
Old Madam Li nodded, affirming Song Qingyuan's guess.
Seeing this, Song Qingyuan frowned slightly.
He said softly, "But as far as I know, the Holy Lord has already ordered the household department to allocate money. ”
"I believe that it won't be long before this silver will be distributed to the border soldiers."
Although it will still go through layers of exploitation, in the end, I don't know how much is left.
However, it will be sent eventually!
"Indeed!"
Old Madam Li nodded again.
"When the old man came, he got the news that the silver of the household department had been prepared, and he would immediately leave Beijing and send it to the border gate."
"I believe that it will not be long before it will be distributed to the border soldiers, but ......"
Old Madam Li's fingers moved slightly, and she said in a deep voice, "The border soldiers have not only not been paid silver, but even their clothes have not been added for many years. ”
"It's good that it's summer now, but if it's winter, I'm afraid it's ......"
Old Madam Li shook her head, "It's hard to maintain!" ”
"In the past, when the cold winter was in the moon, there were always a few soldiers who couldn't stand the severe cold, contracted the wind chill, and lost their lives."
Mrs. Li sighed.
He said in a deep voice, "Therefore, the old man wants to donate this box of valuable things to the charity foundation." ”
"After the charity foundation changed hands, exchanged money and donated it to the border soldiers to help them prepare things to protect against the cold."
"Since the old lady has a heart, why don't you ...... it herself"
Speaking of this, Song Qingyuan's voice stopped abruptly.
Even if she hadn't spoken in person, Old Madam Li's clear but wise eyes had already told her the reason.
And that's why......
