Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 236

"Is there an echo from the Ding Jinjing?" Xiang Yao asked Ye Shusheng, who looked at the fourth prince and nodded, "Don't worry if you say yes, the words are very full, which makes people a little worried."

"People who are too interested in official careers are always over-enthusiastic." Yao Xiang said indifferently, Ye Shusheng smiled when he heard this, and his expression relaxed a lot.

"Maybe we are thinking too much." Yao Xiang looked at the fourth prince and said, "If the Jiang family wants to show affection to us, it is easy, but if they want to show affection to King Shou, it is indeed a good way for Jiang Hong to serve in the army." Ye Shusheng frowned displeased He frowned, and before he could speak, the fourth prince waved his hand and said, "Ms. Yao's words are reasonable. People are seeking profit, so don't be too demanding. I wish the old Hou Ye would serve in the army, let alone others." Ye Shusheng was a little annoyed With a 'hum', Yao Xiang glanced at him, smiled and said nothing more.

In the study room of Jiang's mansion, Prime Minister Jiang sat on the couch with a calm expression. While watching Jiang Hong ordering tea, he confessed in a warm voice: "...you are going north with the army. Everything is unpredictable. It is time for the help of the family. Remember what I just told you?"

"Write it down, don't worry, uncle." Jiang Hong ordered a bowl of tea and held it to Jiang Xiang with both hands. Yu stubborn and impulsive, this trip with the army, and remember not to be impulsive, do not seek meritorious deeds, only seek no faults, just come back safe and sound. "I wrote it down. "Jiang Hong respectfully agreed, but Prime Minister Jiang didn't loosen his brows completely. After drinking the tea slowly, he sighed and said, "Just remember, there is the Jiang family behind you, which also represents the Jiang family. There are many people in the north , even if you don't cherish yourself, you can't harm the Jiang family, and remember not to be impulsive. "Jiang Hong once again solemnly agreed, Prime Minister Jiang seemed a little relieved, and he muttered about it for a long time before letting Jiang Hong go back.

Jiang Hong left Prime Minister Jiang's Mansion, took a few detours, and went to Xu Sihai's Mansion.

Xu Sihai welcomed him into his yard, Jiang Hong signaled him to retreat from the crowd, stood up and opened the doors and windows, looked around, and asked in a low voice: "Is it convenient for you to talk here?"

"You can't get out a single word, just say it." Xu Sihai replied bluntly. Jiang Hong looked at Xu Sihai and said straightforwardly: "Food is the first priority in logistics. If you want to transport food to the north, Jiang Hong will light it with a folding fan." The table gestured and said: "Of all the grain depots, the Ninggan Mansion Grain Depot is the most convenient. I have checked the grain and grass storage situation of the Ninggan Mansion Grain Depot, which is enough for the army. The Ninggan Mansion Grain Depot happens to be in Yongjing County under the jurisdiction of brother Leng. . "

"I think so too!" Xu Sihai raised his eyebrows and slapped his hands a few times: "Although the grain depot is not under the jurisdiction of Brother Leng, it is in Yongjing County, and the county magistrate, Brother Leng, is also in charge, which is much more convenient. "

"But rather the magistrate of Ganfu is Ding Jinjing:" Jiang Hong said coldly: "This person must be guarded." Xu Sihai frowned all of a sudden, tapped the high table with two fingers quickly alternately, took a deep breath and said: "This person is nothing, but behind him..." Xu Sihai looked at Jiang Hong meaningfully, and Jiang Hong nodded to show his understanding: "What I mean is that Brother Leng has to send someone capable to go there, one by one. One is to confess in person, and the other is to help him."

"Send who? Have you made up your mind?"

"Well, my father has a staff member named Pan, who is proficient in money and food, and is the most alert person. I would like to invite him to go, and I will pick a few skilled guards to accompany him." Jiang Hong said frankly, Xu Sihai nodded Ask directly: "What do you want me to do? You just say."

"If there is anything wrong with brother Leng, it is not appropriate to report it to my father or uncle, and I can only leave it to you." Jiang Hong's words sounded relaxed, and Xu Sihai understood his meaning as soon as he heard it. Jiang Hong was away with the army, and Leng Mingsong took on the important task of ensuring the smooth shipment of grain and grass from the Ninggan Mansion's grain depot. He wanted to ensure smooth communication between these two places and the various ministries in the capital in the capital. good everywhere.Xu Sihai took a breath, nodded solemnly and said, "Brother Yanhui, don't worry, I'm safe, and you must be safe."

Jiang Hong patted Xu Sihai with a smile, stood up and said with a smile: "I have to go back quickly. I will ask Mr. Pan to come over to see you tomorrow morning, and discuss with him how to contact you."

"Okay." Xu Sihai agreed and got up to send Jiang Hong out.Jiang Hong walked to the gate of the courtyard, as if thinking of something, looked at Xu Sihai, opened his mouth but didn't speak, Xu Sihai looked at him with a little bit of strangeness, Jiang Hong waved his hand and said: "There is one more thing, do you want to leave it to me?" Appropriate, I'll think of other ways." Xu Sihai raised his eyebrows, shook his head with a smile and didn't ask any more questions, Jiang Hong thought about things carefully, he had learned too much, since he said to think of a way, he didn't need to worry too much .

In the afternoon of the next day, Lin Ke and Jiang Shan arrived at the Prince's Mansion of Jin'an County together, and Li Tian welcomed them into the flower hall of the main courtyard.

Lin Ke chatted cheerfully about all kinds of gossip, big and small, from various houses, especially from Ye Shierniang. Jiang Shan listened absent-mindedly, and kept looking at Li Tian. Out of Jiang Shan's uneasy mind, she calmly took Lin Ke out of the flower hall, sure enough, Jiang Shan saw that Lin Ke had gone out, she hurriedly moved to Li Tian's side, and whispered nervously: "I have something to tell you. Li Tian quickly waved his hands away from the crowd, Jiang Shan moved closer, bit his ear and said in a low voice, "Ninth brother asked me to send you a message, saying that he is going to go out with the army, and Ake's marriage will be entrusted to you Now, I don’t know what Brother Ninth meant by that. What does it have to do with A Ke’s marriage whether Brother Nine goes out or not? How can I entrust this matter to you? But Ninth Brother told me to just pass on the message and tell you to listen I will understand."

Li Tian naturally understood clearly that what Jiang Hong had entrusted was the marriage between Lin Ke and Leng Mingsong, at least Lin Ke couldn't make an appointment until he came back from the expedition.Li Tian nodded with a smile and said, "There's nothing hard to understand about this. Your brother loves Ake as much as you. He has never liked your aunt, and he can't trust her. Didn't you say this? He was afraid of your aunt." During his expedition, he made an unsatisfactory marriage for A Ke, so I had to entrust this matter to me."

"So it's like this! You and Brother Nine are really...I mean, you're smarter than me." Jiang Shan suddenly realized that she almost blurted out the wrong words, she hurriedly turned around, and shrank her shoulders in embarrassment. When he didn't hear it, he pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Your brother entrusted A Ke and entrusted you. He is not at home. If you don't like the marriage that the family told you, you can come to me to discuss it." Jiang Shan blushed, but Tried to show a generous nod and said: "Then I thank you in advance, I hope I don't bother you."

In a few words, Lin Ke carried the cut flowers and jumped into the flower hall. Li Tian looked at her, his heart moved slightly, he looked at Jiang Shan and said with a smile: "I remember you often went in and out with Mrs. Leng's family a while ago. Why didn't you bring her here today?" Jiang Shan was slightly taken aback, not knowing why Li Tian suddenly brought up Mrs. Leng's family, and explained with a smile: "Brother Nine asked me to take care of her more, and I didn't tell you. , don’t take her here rashly.”

"How is Mrs. Leng's family? Do you get along well with her?" Li Tian looked at Jiang Shan and asked. Before Jiang Shan could answer, he turned to Lin Ke and asked, "Are you familiar with Mrs. Leng's family?" Familiar? How is she?"

"Very familiar." Lin Ke, who talked a lot, answered ahead of Jiang Shan: "I like her quite a lot. She is gentle and not shy, and she is not the kind of person who pretends to be shy regardless of the truth. Bring her here for the first time, you must like her too!"

"Huh?" Li Tian looked surprised: "Don't you hate the Leng family brothers and sisters the most? Why do you praise the Leng family lady like a flower?" Lin Ke blushed, and Jiang Shan laughed: "Leng The eldest lady has a gentle temperament, she gives way to her everywhere, and doesn't think she is messing around, of course she likes it, and you also know that there are not many little ladies in the capital who can bear A Ke's nonsense." Jiang Shan opened Lin Ke's car. As a joke, Lin Ke rolled his eyes upwards, turned his nostrils upwards, and said with a disdainful 'hum': "There are not many girls in the capital that I can fall in love with!"

"It seems that the lady of the Leng family has a good tutor. With such a tutor, the master and wife of the Leng family are not bad. That Leng Tanhua... Hey, the lady of the Leng family said that her brother is not bad?"

"Why didn't you say that?" Jiang Shan snatched the words and replied: "Looking at what Mrs. Leng said inside and outside the words, their brother and sister have a very good relationship. Mrs. Leng always respects her elder brother, so let me tell Brother Nine Similarly, when the lady of the Leng family heard A Ke say that Leng Tanhua is not good, she had to argue clearly, but A Ke was defeated by her for many times." Jiang Shan laughed while talking, Lin Ke sneaked a glance at Li Tian, A layer of light red spread from her neck, she turned her head and simply ignored Jiang Shan, Li Tian kept her eyes on Lin Ke from the corner of her eyes, watching the changes in her expression, a smile could not help leaking from the corner of her mouth.

Qin Tianjian chose an auspicious day and auspicious time, and the guard of honor of the Northern Expedition came out of the forbidden area with bright and dazzling banners, and went all the way to the north gate.Li Tian and Yu Yaofang stood on the second floor of Li Qijia's main store, looking through the gauze curtain at the seemingly endless procession of ceremonies downstairs.

"Why are you so ostentatious?" Yu Yaofang said in a low voice with deep puzzlement and worry: "If the battle is unfavorable, how can I explain it?" Li Tian sighed sullenly: "Of course King Shou doesn't want to be so ostentatious. But this is beyond his control, such a grand and ostentatious expedition can only win a big victory."

"Tiantian, tell me, King Shou will win a big victory this time, right?" Yu Yaofang heard the meaning of Li Tian's words, and she became more worried. I know, this time the Northern Expedition King Shou is the commander, and Chang'an Hou is the deputy commander, but the main force of the Northern Expedition Army is the North Third Route Army that Chang'an Hou has led for more than ten years. After all, you are old Hou Ye, old handsome." Li Tian bit the word "old" heavily, wishing Lao Hou Ye old, not only because he is old, but because his age has passed, and he can only rely on the old days. Compared with the Marquis of Chang'an who held the real power and was in his prime, he was just a piece of the past.
