The people who carried the sedan chair were all the confidants, so there was nothing to be shy about. Madam Li rubbed her temples with her hands, and said with a bit of annoyance and fatigue: "You know your grandmother's temper. Among the three houses, she has always favored the first house the most. The last time the Chengguo Mansion incident affected us, all our business with the Chengguo Mansion was lost, and the public treasury has long been unable to make ends meet. Even so, the first house did not stop, and they were eager to take everything from the public treasury into their private vaults. Let alone other things, who doesn't know how much money your aunt took from the public treasury by relying on Yunzhang's marriage?"
How could the other two rooms not have opinions if the eldest room was like this
Mrs. Li Er became a widow early, so she attached more importance to money.
Seeing that Madam Li was so unrespectable, he naturally became even angrier.
"If you don't do something great, your grandmother's money will all go to the first wife." Madam Li Er said suddenly in the sedan chair: "They won't care about you."
Young Master Li followed the sedan chair and walked beside it. When he heard what Madam Li said, his expression did not change at all. He said in a deep voice, "I understand. Don't worry, mother. If this matter is resolved, it will not only relieve Grandmother of her worries, but also lay a foundation for me to go to Yunnan to quell the rebellion. It's a good thing to kill two birds with one stone."
"That's what you said." Madam Li Er lifted the curtain and looked at him: "But what if Su Rong leaked the news?"
"How to leak the news?" Young Master Li smiled and said, "Send someone to Princess Yongning's residence?"
Madam Li Er finally reacted - yes, if Su Rong sent someone to Princess Yongning's residence to tip off the matter, wouldn't that prove that the Su family had indeed learned the details of the matter, and that Miss Mu San was indeed in the hands of the Su family
By then, the Li family will naturally have other options.
Besides, if the Su family makes any move, they will naturally be closely watched by Master Li.
Madam Li Er looked at her adopted son with satisfaction and sat back with relief.
She was not afraid of Li Jiamin's intelligence. It was true that smart people were more difficult to control, but smart people had one advantage, which was that they could calculate gains and losses clearly.
There is no need to worry that he will get confused and do something he shouldn't do.
On the Su family side, Master Su San was terrified: "Brother Rong, both sides are princess residences...Should you reconsider this matter?"
If they really did what Lord Li said, it would mean that the Su family would join the Li family in exposing Princess Yongning's Mansion.
It's true, that's fine.
If this was not the case, Li was the consort of Princess Mingchang, so there must be some relationship between them.
Wouldn’t that mean that all the anger of Princess Yongning’s Mansion would fall on the Su family
What’s more, he went to file the complaint on New Year’s Eve.
This doesn't seem appropriate at all.
"Don't worry, Uncle San." Su Rong knew what he was worried about, so he smiled and comforted him. Then he went back to the pavilion with Master Su San, told Old Madam Su that everything was fine, and sat next to Su Yao, saying with a smile, "I really came here for Miss Mu San's matter."
Master Su San didn't know what was going on and originally wanted to say a few more words to Su Rong. However, when he turned around and saw Su Rong and Su Yao talking, he was stunned for a moment, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
I don't know why, but now Master Su San has a blind trust in Su Yao. It seems that as long as Su Yao is involved, everything will be successful in his opinion.
Since Su Yao and Su Rong both knew the situation, he was no longer worried. He turned around and brought the younger generation in his family to toast with Old Lady Su.
Old Mrs. Su was also happy and said a few words of encouragement out of respect.
Master Su San sat down and touched Su Yu's head, and asked him to look at Su Yao: "That's your fourth sister. She is a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment. You have to get along with her well. As long as you don't have any bad intentions, she will treat you well."
He now understands Su Yao's personality. If you are good to her, she will be ten or a hundred times better to you. If you are not good to her, she will never indulge you.
But there are many benefits to getting along with such people.
Su Yu nodded seriously.
The next day was New Year's Eve. Early in the morning, everywhere was bustling with activity. Every household started slaughtering chickens and ducks in preparation for the reunion dinner in the evening.
Amidst the jubilation, Young Master Li came again. Seeing Su Rong dressed in new clothes, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Master, can we leave now?"
He had someone watch the Su family for a whole night yesterday. He did not let anyone who left the Su family go, even the night watchers, to make sure there was nothing unusual in the Su family.
If that's the case, nothing will change.
He had already known the life story of Tang Qinglu, the adopted son of Princess Yongning, from the people of Duke Chengguo's Mansion. All he lacked was evidence.
But now that there is evidence and Tang Qinglu has been captured, can Miss Mu San really remain calm and hide
Besides, the Su family will help endorse it.
In this situation, he is invincible whether he advances or retreats.
Su Rong said in a serious tone: "We are ready, but we have no evidence at all..."
"What are you afraid of, Lord? It is inevitable that there are problems in Princess Yongning's mansion. As long as His Majesty orders a strict investigation, he will naturally know that we are not slandering." Young Master Li persuaded: "We are also loyal!"
After persuading Su Rong, Master Li Xiaojue entered the palace with Su Rong.
Emperor Yuanfeng was very busy. Although all government offices had been sealed long ago and the emperor had theoretically had a holiday, in fact, there were always various things to do.
On New Year's Eve, as an emperor, he had to go to the Taimiao to worship his ancestors, and then attend a palace banquet in the evening to entertain all members of the royal family.
Especially today, there seems to be so much going on.
After all, Master Li Xiaojue was the grandson of Princess Mingchang and he often came in and out of the palace. He asked for an audience, and soon there was movement in the Taiji Hall.
Emperor Yuanfeng took the time to meet them. As soon as he saw Master Li, he asked directly, "What is the matter that makes you so anxious to see me? Can't you wait for the palace banquet tonight?"
"It was Lord Su who told me something important..." Lord Li Xiaojue lay on the ground: "Your Majesty, Lord Su said that recently a woman has been trying to get close to the county lady in the name of the charity hall, and this woman... is also very close to the Princess Yongning's mansion... It seems that there is a close connection..."
He paused before continuing, "It's about Great-Aunt Yongning." After all, Young Master Li was the grandson of Princess Mingchang and he often came in and out of the palace. He asked for an audience, and soon there was movement in the Taiji Hall.
