Chapter 674 The latest news from the palace

Because there is something to do tomorrow, so Bai Kou didn't delay the time on purpose, she turned off the light and went to bed after tidying up, Gu Yun insisted that she sleep on her side, for the sake of warming the bed, Bai Kou didn't argue with him inside outside.

The warm quilt soon aroused drowsiness. Before falling asleep, Bai Kou vaguely dropped a sentence saying that she would go to Jiyangfang tomorrow, and fell asleep. Gu Yun first responded in a daze, and then reacted after a while Coming here, I couldn't laugh or cry at Bai Kou's cunning, and immediately decided to go together tomorrow.

The two of them slept peacefully that night. When Bai Kou woke up, she twisted Gu Yun's hand on her chest to wake him up, and unceremoniously drove him out of bed and back to his own bed. Gu Yun was not angry. Don't be annoyed, just took a few mouthfuls of tender tofu and left happily.

During breakfast, Gu Yun ordered the girl to inform the coachman to prepare the car. After breakfast, he changed his clothes and went out with Bai Kou.

Bai Kou originally wanted to go by herself, but since the eldest son wanted to go too, of course she would not object. He is the boss, and it is his duty to understand everything in detail.

The residents of Jiyang Fang all recognized Gu Yun's carriage. As soon as the carriage entered the gate, some children went to Zhang's family in Quzhang Lane to report. After drinking hot tea and understanding what they came for, they took them to the warehouse to see the finished product.

The various large gadgets used to make flat glass have been completed in sevens and eighties, and they planned to wait for them to come back from winter hunting and then transport them to the factory for installation one after another.

Bai Kou customized these things with the money he asked the prince in the name of a large-scale experiment. The things made for three or four thousand taels of silver would be wasted if they couldn't make qualified flat glass.

Now that Zhang's family was ready, Bai Kou and Gu Yun didn't stay long, and went directly to Xilefang, and told the managers of the glass factory to wait for new things from Zhang's family.

After running to two places, the day was over, and the next day the mansion began to prepare for the return of the eldest master, packed up and put away the big and small luggage, and continued to work for two days, but it was like this every year, everyone had long been used to it.

The housework in the mansion has just been taken care of, and Bai Kou is about to go to the factory to follow up on the installation of new tools. The palace chief learned about a new thing from the news channel of the clan circle, and immediately used the name of inviting Gu Yun to drink , Invited him to his home and told him.

"The latest news happened in the past few days in Dongshou."

"Don't be tricky, say."

"The eunuch Shao Yiping was arrested, and the entire eunuch was cleaned up from top to bottom."

"The news is reliable?!" Gu Yun was shocked, followed by joy.

"Eunuch Xi's confidants do it personally, it is absolutely reliable."

"It's been almost a year. Why did you get Shao Yiping dealt with at this time? Have you caught him?"

"The evidence is so strong that no one can save him."

"What ironclad evidence? You're so anxious to kill me, can't you finish it in one breath?"

"I just like to see you jumping in a hurry and seeing me helpless."

"Don't beg for a fight, talk quickly."

"In the past few days, in the name of inspecting and repairing the house, the palace inspected the squatter huts of the steward and the imperial kitchen, found a hidden compartment behind the cabinet, and found something you would never expect."

"what?"

"Bai's recipe."

"Hey?! Really?!" Gu Yun jumped up awkwardly.

"Can this be a fake? A box of boxes, carried out from the two hidden compartments, with traces of the original house raid and seizure on it."

"It's actually hidden in the palace. No wonder I haven't found a piece of paper after searching Wang Xiaodong's house for a few days! Hey, but it's not right, some recipes have leaked out. My family has a few of them, but they have already returned them to Bai Kou. .”

"It's all a cover-up. Take a few copies out of the public to attract people's attention. It makes people think that the recipes of the royal chef Bai's family have been lost. In fact, most of them have been hidden in the rooms of the two heads, the head chef and the eunuch. That is to say Wang Xiaodong and Shao Yiping have been working together for a long time. Do you think the evidence is solid?"

"The ironclad evidence is like a mountain, and the well-deserved ironclad evidence is like a mountain."

"What's more, it's safest to hide this kind of thing in the palace. Even their own subordinates don't go to their house easily. Who knows if they hide in the house while they are resting and read a few pages of recipes. It's safer than keeping it at home. Don't be afraid. The thieves came out."

"That's right. Even the sage thought that the people in the warehouse were guarding and stealing. The recipes had already been lost to the people, and they asked Bai Kou to take them back slowly. One by one was found."

"Looking at it this way, from the beginning of last year when the concubine's pregnancy was not smooth, to when Wang Xiaodong's incident happened at the beginning of this year, the sage may have suspected that the imperial kitchen was in collusion with the food supervisor, but there is no evidence, and suspicion alone cannot do things. It’s all over, the evidence is solid, let’s see how they deny it.”

"That's great. In this way, one of Concubine Zhao Xian's arms was cut off."

"Huh? What's the matter with Concubine Zhao Xian?"

"You don't know?!" Gu Yun was a little surprised.

"I should know? When did you say that?" Gong Changji jumped up, pulled Gu Yun back to the chair, pressed him to sit down, poured wine into his glass, "Tell me, tell me, what should I know?"

"When the saint was still the crown prince, Concubine Zhao Xian was Zhao Liangdi at that time, and Shao Yiping served in front of her."

"Oh my God, you even know this? What else are you hiding?"

"No more, that's all. Concubine Zhao Xian has done a lot of things through Shao Yiping's relatives outside the palace. Now that Shao Yiping has collapsed, do you think you have broken Concubine Zhao Xian's arm?"

"Shao Yiping's relatives outside the palace? You do know more than I do. You have been checking him for a long time? Tell me, tell me."

"How should I put it? Shao Yiping and Wang Xiaodong are actually in-laws who turned a corner."

"how to say?"

"Wang Xiaodong has a younger brother named Wang Xiaonan. Xuxian married the daughter of a Tang family in Qianhuaifang. An uncle and nephew of the Tang family is Shao Yiping."

"Ah?! My God!"

"In Qianhuaifang, everyone knows the relationship between the Tang family and the palace, but no one dares to tell the outside world because of their power, so people outside the workshop don't know much about it, and those who go this way to ask for work I will also keep my mouth shut, if I didn't deliberately investigate this, I really don't know there is such a relationship."

"How can you check Wang Xiaodong when you are so good?"

"It's a long story. Anyway, the information is accumulated one after another, and finally forms a line."

"You are really good at doing so many things in private without letting me know."

"At that time, you were neither married nor moved here. What's the use of telling you so much, besides, I was just guessing at that time, so I borrowed some money in my hand to check it out. out of my guess."

Gu Yun rubbed his nose, cheekily, and smiled without guilt.
