The daily life of the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, thick black

Chapter 61 trivial
When Bai Qiaoniang came in, she didn't know what had happened in Zhang's mansion, she just came here with news of Fourth Master.

But when he entered the door, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the pile of ledgers and the pair of cards in Gu Huaixiu's room.

Bai Qiaoniang was thinking in her heart. I heard that except for the eldest son, there is no one else in Zhang's mansion. The eldest son is the one who is educated and capable, and also has a virtuous wife. Why has this mansion given the right card to Gu Huai? sleeve?
Gu Huaixiu sat, watching Bai Qiaoniang come in calmly.

Bai Qiaoniang knelt down and saluted, "Hi, Second Young Mistress."

"Qiaoniang don't need to be polite, get up. Qingdai, pour tea." Now there is no need to shy away from Qingdai in everything, Qingdai gradually knows more propriety, and now she retreats to the side.Listening is able to listen, but not to speak out.

Gu Huaixiu looked at Bai Qiaoniang, and Bai Qiaoniang only showed Gu Huaixiu the beautiful sable fur cloak: "These little minks are the most numerous in Mulan's paddock, the master just said that he got a big cloak a while ago, let Qiao Niangxin brought you one. Qiaoniang doesn't understand what that means."

Gu Huaixiu glanced at this cloak, and knew that what mattered was not whether it was expensive or not, what mattered was that it came from Mulan Paddock.

Tsk, the famous fourth elder brother in history is just a hypocrite.

She was lazy and didn't want to talk to her, so she just said casually: "I forgot about this matter, but I didn't expect that your master has a good memory, and I often remember these trivial things. Come on, just put it down and it will be fine." , what else is there?"

Bai Qiaoniang was almost choked to death by Gu Huaishu's unkind words.

She began to think about what to say when she went back to fourth master's side.
Just say that about Gu Huaixiu?
Bai Qiaoniang always felt cold on the back of her neck.

Although the fourth elder brother is following the prince now and is not very busy, it is not that he is thinking about trivial matters.If it doesn't matter, why do you keep thinking about it?Gu Huaixiu's words were clearly meant to offend Fourth Master!

Bai Qiaoniang didn't dare to say anything, she only whispered softly: "I think you don't know the news from the palace all the time, Fourth Master said...you should know, sooner or later."

Gu Huaishu glanced at her, quietly listened to her finish, and then said: "You tell your fourth master that there is no need to send you here in the future. I will defy him."

"Second Young Mistress..."

Bai Qiaoniang frowned, although she has been more polite to Gu Huaixiu in recent days, but after all, the master is the master, and Gu Huaixiu is just the daughter-in-law of a courtier, it is too courageous to dare to say such words to the nobles of Tianhuang .

To put it bluntly, Gu Huaishu was really afraid of the fourth elder brother.

But now?

Zhang Ying is not in the emperor's party at all, so Zhang Tingzan will not say, and he doesn't know if he is in the prince's party or the fourth elder brother, so why is Gu Huaixiu so worried?
What's more, if there is no news from Bai Qiaoniang, Gu Huaishu is actually very willing to make false claims with the fourth elder brother.

But now she is repeatedly threatened by people, and the fact that she didn't choke with the people from Wu's side at first is the result of her patience.Now that the fourth elder brother is here, Bai Qiaoniang is coming again. Doesn't this make her feel even more frustrated?
I knew that Bai Qiaoniang's coming might not be a good thing, but I didn't expect that the fourth elder brother would really dare to do things.

With such a scheming, it is no wonder that it is the future Yongzheng Lord.

Originally, Gu Huaishu had dragged Bai Qiaoniang back to bring back the news about the palace maid of Yuqing asking for medicine, originally he wanted to use the help of the fourth elder brother to eliminate the danger for himself.But a ruthless person like the fourth elder brother actually stood by and watched, completely ignoring the life and death of this person who was once his pawn, letting go and even fueling the flames, making Lin Jia's Yaofang in the palace win the prince's favor. Li Jiashi, who is pregnant, is the most capable.

Ha, if it continues like this, how dare she, Gu Huaishu, continue to play with the fourth elder brother?

Come on, you are good, fourth elder brother, you have the ability, you dare to play with fire, I can't afford to play with it.

We are just ordinary people with ambitions, but we don’t have big ambitions. The incidents in the court will affect the whole body. Your fourth elder brother has not caught me now, and we will benefit from cooperation...

Disagree?

What's wrong with me?

Anyway, I don't suffer.

Gu Huaishu's simple and crude logic successfully defeated Bai Qiaoniang directly.

Bai Qiaoniang almost stumbled out.

It was rare for Gu Huaixiu to be so happy, seeing Bai Qiaoniang go out, she held onto the door frame and fell down laughing.

She turned her head and saw the sable cloak on the table, said: "This is a good thing, Qing Dai, take it down and change it for the maids to see if it fits the second master."

Qing Dai was in a dilemma: "What about you?"

"You think I dare to wear it?" Gu Huaixiu touched his neck, his life is important, although he won't die if he wears it, but Gu Huaixiu will feel a thorn on his back more or less, "Anyway, the second master doesn't know, let If he wears it, he won't feel anything when he wears it."

The ignorant, the fearless.

Qingdai was speechless for a moment, and suddenly wanted to shed tears of bitterness for Mr. Zhang.

"What are you still doing, hurry up."

Gu Huaishu urged her, and Qing Dai nervously went out with the sable fur cape in her hands.

Gu Huaishu scolded Yinzhen for being "hypocritical" again, and then came in to look at the account book.

Zhang Ying has been an official for many years, and he has a lot of houses and properties in Tongcheng, the capital city. A small part of the money spent in the mansion comes from Zhang Ying's salary, and most of it comes from the emperor's rewards. and so on worked.It's beyond Gu Huaishu's ability to know if there is any icy charcoal silver or blacker money in it.

Even if Gu Huaishu knew, he wouldn't feel anything.

From the emperor's rewards, it can be seen how much Zhang Ying is favored. The silver rewarded by the emperor every year is enough for the whole family to eat. It is no wonder that there is no shortage of money. Sapphire carving.

Looking through the ledger, Gu Huaixiu has a better understanding of the various situations in the mansion.

She wasn't just kidding, she was serious about it.

When Zhang Tingyu came back, he had already heard about this incident, so he didn't think much about it at first. After all, in the eyes of most people, it was a rush to put ducks on the shelves, and it was a last resort to call Gu Huaishu butler.But he just passed by outside and didn't intend to disturb Gu Huaishu, but he noticed that although Gu Huaishu didn't write, he was holding the pen with his left hand and flipping through the ledger with his right.

Squinting his eyes slightly, Zhang Tingyu stood outside the curtain without speaking for a long time.

Gu Huaishu lightly rubbed the brush on his forehead, then put down the brush again.

She touched her belly, stretched again, seemed to be hungry and tired, so she got up, and then she saw Zhang Tingyu.

A beaded curtain was hung in the middle, and Gu Huaishu's eyes met his.

Neither of them spoke.

She didn't know what happened, so she just went out and opened the curtain: "Come back to eat today?"

Zhang Tingyu nodded silently.

But at the same time, he also threw an invitation card on the table, and Gu Huaishu walked over to take a look, the invitation card from Mingzhu Mansion.

She still remembered what happened to Nalan Mingzhu that time.

Gu Huaishu said: "Last time..."

Zhang Tingyu poured tea, "Brother is like a fool, he was fooled around, thinking that the Lord Long Live has been busy there for a long time, because he is seriously ill."

Yes, Gu Huaixiu remembers this point. Zhang Ying never came back at that time, and he almost ignored Zhang Tingzhen when things happened at home. Later, Zhang Tingzan went to invite him, and Zhang Ying came back and beat up his son. gone.

At that time, it really didn't seem like anything major happened.

Can……

Something to do with the deposed prince?It's also a little too early.

"I'm afraid someone is plotting in the middle..."

As Gu Huaixiu said, he opened the invitation card and only invited Zhang Tingyu to drink tea alone, and it was still issued in the name of Nalan Kuixu.

But the handwriting on this invitation card is clearly old-fashioned and steady, judging people with words, there is a sense of slickness, one can tell at a glance that it is not something that a relatively young person like Nalan Kuixu can write.

The person who wrote this invitation was not Nalan Mingzhu's son, but himself.

She still remembered that day when the old fox jumped into their car and was thrown halfway by Zhang Tingyu, but he owed them a big favor.

Gu Huaixiu closed the invitation and tapped lightly on his palm: "Are you going to blackmail?"

Zhang Tingyu squinted at her: "I look like that kind of cunning person?"

"...Not like, you are."

Gu Huaishu was not polite at all, she threw away the invitation again, and said, "You haven't finished talking yet."

"It's nothing more than the eldest brother being misled by others, thinking that the Long Live Lord is not in good health, and the wind came from somewhere that he wanted to change the crown prince. The eldest brother hurried to discuss with Mingzhu, but was caught by the prince. In fact, Long Live Lord told the ministers about the affairs on the Mongolian border, and there was a commotion from time to time, and that's all good... Who knew that big brother could do this?"

Zhang Tingyu also felt that the elder brother was not good at thinking.

Such a person also wants to be an emperor, but he is afraid that he will be dragged down within two days after sitting on the dragon chair.

After this time, Mingzhu completely fell out of favor, and even her elder brother was reprimanded for a long time.

He ran to the minister's house for no reason, and there were no rules.

Mingzhu cut off all the plum blossoms in the garden in a fit of rage, and asked people to replant pear blossoms in winter, saying that they could eat pears next year, but this made people laugh inside and outside the capital.

Whoever benefits from this incident is the one who plots against Big Brother.

Even if it is not the prince, it is inseparable from the prince.

It's just that the prince is very fond of Kangxi, even if the prince doesn't learn well, it's the fault of the people around him, how can Kangxi be willing to punish him?Just blindly blame other people, this matter was lightly exposed by the prince.

Mingzhu stayed at home for the past two days, and he still owed a favor to Zhang Tingyu, thinking that it would be better to hit the sun than to choose a date, so he simply asked someone to send an invitation card.

It is not unreasonable for Gu Huaishu to guess that Zhang Tingyu is going to speak loudly.

Zhang Tingyu is not a good person, it's just that he hasn't found an opportunity for a while.

He tapped his fingers on the table, and suddenly said: "I'm afraid that Mingzhu will trick me... Ginger is still old and spicy. My young ginger should be spicy slowly."

It is unrealistic to want to compare with Mingzhu all at once.

What Zhang Tingyu is thinking about is what to say to Mingzhu tomorrow.

For the time being, he has nothing to use Mingzhu.

Gu Huaixiu sat down next to Zhang Tingyu, casually lifted the sable cloak, Zhang Tingyu didn't care, glanced at Gu Huaixiu's left hand, only slightly bent his lips, and didn't bother to care about these details.

As for the sable coat?
Looking at the reply letter from outside, Yin Zhen almost choked and spit out a mouthful of blood.

He was always moody. When he was happy, everyone around him was happy, but when he was unhappy, everyone around him was unlucky.

Xiao Shengzi only felt that when he delivered the news, he was holding his head up.

Yinzhen looked at it and burned the note, Xin Dao Gu Huaishu was temporarily useless, and Zhang Tingzan's side has also been in a downturn recently, it seems that something happened in his house.

but……

What does it mean to think about trivial things all day long?

Yinzhen sneered, all he was thinking about were important and important matters.

Xiao Shengzi tremblingly said: "Master, the maids outside have built Snow City with snow, do you want to go out and have a look?"

"Is Master the kind of person who plays with things and loses his mind?"

Yinzhen frowned, and reprimanded Xiao Shengzi.

Xiao Shengzi shrank his neck in fright, "The slave immediately told them to push it down!"

Yinzhen waved his hand and walked outside: "Look."

Xiao Shengzi: "..."

Lord, you are so trivial and inconsistent, we slaves really feel sorry for you!
