Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 259 Bei'an City (1)

Neither Guan Tong nor the Fifth Prince was in the Privy Council, and Guo Tui got on his horse and went to look for the general.

Guan Tong drooped his triangular eyes, and was nestling in a pile of documents and account books on the kang. When he heard the sound, he didn't lift his head, but raised his pen and said, "Sit down first, and make a bowl of hot tea for Officer Guo Tui!" I will reconcile this account clearly." Guo Tuiguan only answered "yes" lightly, and sat down on the chair in front of the kang, took the tea and slowly sipped it until Guan Tong finished his work.

"What's the matter?" Guan Tong finally finished reconciling the account, closed the account book, turned around and asked, Guo Tui raised his eyebrows and smiled and said, "Why don't you ask me any good news?" "When I heard the footsteps, I knew it was not good news." Come on, what's the matter?" Guan Tong moved his hands on the kang table, turned to face Guo Tui, and Guo Tui gave a long sigh: "You staff, all of you are supernatural. , I don’t have any good news, I came to look for Mr., and I want him to say hello to Hu San and the others, and see if the two places can be searched together.” Guan Tong frowned, wouldn’t the combination of the two places be the same as Wang Hao’s? Has all the staff been exposed to the government?Seeing Guan Tong's frown, Officer Guo Tui took a step back and continued, "It doesn't matter if you agree with each other, each has its own way, and it may not be compatible, but the letters from both sides must be communicated. It can also get twice the result with half the effort.”

"Yeah!" Guan Tongshu nodded his eyebrows: "This is the truth. I told Hu San about this. You have some errands here. Let him do his best. Why? Have you looked for him? Did he have any letters?" Tell you?"

"That's not true." Guo Tuiguan hurriedly smiled and said, "Hu San is a cautious person. Mr. Xu Shi didn't explain it clearly. My aide, Mr. Hong, went to find Hu San, but Hu San didn't seem to believe it."

"Oh!" Guan Tong raised his hand and rubbed his brows: "You should find Hu San yourself, you are you, and your staff are your staff, there is nothing wrong with Hu San being cautious, he is taught by the princess .”

"That's good!" Official Guo Tui readily agreed, "I'd like to ask you to explain to me again." Guan Tong nodded, and Guo Tui stood up and was about to leave when a voice came from outside the door to report: "Sir, the fifth master ordered Guo Tui to be brought in." The officer went in to see him." Guan Tong responded, frowned, looked at Guo Tui and confessed: "I will see the fifth master in a while, and I should be more tactful, and I can't talk nonsense, but I can't just tell the truth. Words that make people feel hopeful." Guo Tuiguan looked at Guan Tong with a little amusement and nodded in response, which is an interesting confession.

Guo Tuiguan went out of the wing room, Guan Tong was worried after thinking about it, hurriedly got up on the kang, put on his heels and entered the upper room behind Guo Tuiguan.

Officer Guo Tui looked at the fifth prince sitting on the upper kang in astonishment, "It's only been about ten days, the fifth prince seems to have aged ten years, and his expression is so cold that he looks like a fourth master. His skin is dull, his eye sockets are sunken, his lips are As if he was too thin, Guo Tui was stunned and even forgot to salute. The fifth prince straightened his back and didn't notice that Guo Tui hadn't seen the salute yet, so he stared at Guo Tui and asked, "Is there any letter?" ? "Guo Tuiguan suddenly came to his senses, and felt a burst of heart palpitations for no reason. He hurriedly bowed to the end and replied respectfully: "Go back to Fifth Master, I'm not sure yet. "

"Not sure? Do you have the inaccurate letter?" The fifth prince asked trickily with a look on his face, and Guo Tuiguan said in a low voice with embarrassment: "No, there is no useful letter. "The fifth prince sideways him, Guan Tong came in right behind Guo Tuiguan, hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Hu San didn't get any useful information from the other side, but then again, we only want to find the princess, if If you have the letter, you have found the concubine." The fifth prince glanced at Guan Tong, then looked down at the document in his hand, Guo Tuiguan quickly glanced at the fifth prince, and looked at Guan Tong for help, Guan Tong rushed to him With a wink to signal him to leave, Guo Tuiguan cautiously cupped his hands and exited, walking slowly, watching the heavy cotton curtains hanging heavily in the upper room and waiting for the pipes to come out.

After a while, Guan Tong raised the curtain and came out, Guan Tong hurriedly went up to meet him, Guan Tong waved his hand to signal him to keep silent, the two walked into Guan Tong's wing, Officer Guo Tui said with a sigh of relief: "Fifth Lord Why... What's the matter? The fifth master was the most easy-going in the past, and he is really a son of a dragon and a grandson. Once this majesty is displayed, the overwhelming popularity will be overwhelmed."

"Don't talk about these useless things." Guan Tong sat on the kang, rubbing his brows wearily: "I just want to tell you, the princess really has a problem, fifth master... well, if you don't talk about fifth master, just talk about you, You just wash your neck and wait to be stabbed, and don’t blame me for being straightforward, and don’t make up your mind who rules the world and who is in charge, no matter what, that one!” Guan Tong pointed to Shangfang: “It’s the prince, father and son brother No matter what happens between them, there is no room for outsiders to be negligent."

"Master Guan! I really dare not neglect this matter!" Officer Guo Tui was impatient, and hurriedly argued, Guan Tong frowned and waved his hands: "It's not up to you to be negligent or not, it's who has the final say! He is not happy if there is no useful letter up to now. If there is something wrong with him later, if you say you are negligent, you will be negligent. What is the reason for this? Guo Tui is also a sensible person. Mr. Wei Hong is even more knowledgeable, so I won’t say much. If the princess is good, everyone will be well. If the princess is not good..." Guan Tong dragged his voice: "Don't think about it. Well, you should go back and do your work. , I’ll have someone call Hu San over here, and you’ll find him yourself in the evening.” Official Guo Tui was in a heavy and depressed mood, and couldn’t even raise his voice, agreed, and went out with his shoulders drooping. .

Guan Tong put his hands on his chest, looked up at the bright windows, and was in a daze for a long time before he raised his voice to call the servant to come in and ask him to look for Hu San to come in and see him.

Hu Sanyi was wearing a thick cotton padded jacket, with his sleeves and shoulders shrunk, and wretchedly slipped into the general prison, walked along the corner of the roadside house and entered the wing room, without taking his hands out of his sleeves, he just nodded and laughed, Seemingly very humble, Guan Tong beckoned him to sit down: "You still don't believe me?" Hu San nodded with gloomy eyes, and sighed without answering. Guan Tong's face sank like water, and he was silent for a while: " Officer Guo Tui just came here, and he meant that two places should be searched in two places, but no matter which one has a letter, it is best to let the other party know, what do you mean?"

"Sun Liuye told the younger one before he left, and the younger one will follow Guan Ye's arrangements." Hu San's eyes flickered slightly, and he replied respectfully with a sniffle. Keep an eye on it, don't make any mistakes, do you have enough people?"

"It's okay for people!" Hu San wrinkled his face bitterly, "It's just that no one is in charge." Guan Tong was startled when he heard that, Hu San moved and blinked a few times: "Mr. I know, the little ones are all low-class, either fish or worms. They have little ability and many things. They usually rely on Liu Ye's prestige and means to suppress them. No one dares to show their teeth, but now that Liu Ye is not here, the little ones have no skills. The sixth master is here, maybe he has already found some clues or something, can Master Guan talk to the fifth master, and quickly transfer the sixth master back, the business of our princess is the real thing."

Guan Tong was the clearest about Sun Liu's mission to Ninggan Mansion. Hearing what Hu San said, he stayed for a while before replying: "Sun Liu's side is also a very important matter. I sent a letter to him. As soon as he's done with something, come back quickly."

"Thank you, Guan Tong, for your understanding." Hu San bowed to thank him, but Guan Tong's heart skipped a beat. He frowned and looked at Hu San. Hu San raised his eyelids and looked back at Guan Tong, sighing, with a little Talking to himself, he said: "The little ones have shallow eyelids and little knowledge. Except for our girl, I can't see what matters, big or small. Who made the little ones be our girls' companions? Fortunately, our girls have never disliked the younger ones, Master Guan, you are busy, and the younger one is leaving." Guan Tong, who was nagging, jumped a few times, straightened his upper body and said: "Hu San, the matter of the princess is indeed true. It is the most important matter of all, but this matter is intertwined with the affairs of the Ninggan Mansion, and even with the affairs of the north, and one link cannot be solved and the other link is difficult to separate."

"Master Guan taught you a lesson!" Hu San bowed and replied, "You guys have short-sightedness." Guan Tong looked at Hu San who was full of respect and obedience, and suddenly realized that there is really no such thing as a dowry like a princess. lamp.It seems that I have to have a good chat with Madam Xiong tonight, they seem to treat him as an outsider.

The cold wind in Bei'an City in early winter, King Shou was dressed in casual clothes and a sable cloak, with his hands behind his back and his face gloomy, he was walking and chatting with his aide, Mr. Jiang, in the barracks.

"...can't wait until the grain and grass are sufficient!" Shou Wang said softly: "The grain and grass will be sufficient until next year's summer harvest, and we can't wait until then." Mr. Jiang had a wry smile on his face. For them, it is impossible to wait until next year's summer harvest However, the reason why Chang'an Hou Zhuwenqi insisted on waiting until next year to harvest the summer grain was too strong, but their reasons could only be known to each other but could never be put on the table.

"The prince has already made a final decision?" Mr. Jiang asked in a low voice. King Shou stopped, looked at the sunset slowly setting in the distance, took a deep breath and said, "How can you get a tiger if you don't enter the tiger's den? The officials went out to fight, but followed a few piles of horse dung, hundreds of riders chased thousands of miles in the starry night, and when they came back, there were only a few dozen riders left, and the officials thought I was too conservative." The setting sun hit King Shou's face, reflecting The face of King Shou, who was caught in memories, was warm. Mr. Jiang looked at the overly tender face in front of him, and suddenly felt sad for no reason. They discussed his plan many times, and he knew how risky it was. Ever since he proposed this plan, he couldn't sleep because he thought about it almost every night.Back then, when he was fighting in all directions with the officials, hundreds of riders chased the poor in the starry night, there were officials raiding behind him, facing the enemy, but behind him was a strong support, but now, they are very likely to fall into the danger of being attacked by the enemy.

But if it is not so dangerous, how can we break the current sticky and difficult situation?At least there is a possibility of breaking the game and breaking out of the dangerous chess. If it continues like this, there will only be a dead end.Mr. Jiang shivered lightly, the officials were cruel, and he knew it all too clearly during the years he had been with him.
