What does Gu Chang mean by looking at him like that
Did you know that someone from the Peng family has been in contact with the third prince and helped him with affairs, so you suspect that the two hundred thousand taels of silver were handwritten by their Peng family
The Peng family will not take this blame!
Mr. Peng coughed heavily, and said with a serious face: "Master Wu and Tao Juren are both right. Two hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small amount. No matter who is present here, it will be a bit difficult to get it out, and it is How it was transported to the capital is also a mystery. If Mr. Sun finds out something, please tell Mr. Gu clearly. We are all sitting in the same boat now. If the boat capsizes, it will be of no benefit to anyone. As Master Song Si said In that case, time is running out, and it is not the time to exchange polite greetings, everyone should say whatever they want!"
Gu Chang has always been suspicious of the Peng family.
Because only the Peng family has the financial and material resources, but seeing Mr. Peng's appearance at this time, he felt that he had taken it for granted. Although two hundred thousand taels of silver is a lot, everyone here can really take it out.
Mainly how it was transported into the capital.
If it's not the Wu family, or the Peng family, then whose family is it
Sun Gao found out clearly that the money entered Beijing from the Grand Canal in Suzhou.
The Song family is not so generous, and the Pei family does not have such methods.
So who is it
Gu Chang had a headache.
He simply said: "I just want a result about the third prince. As for what everyone thinks, I am young and I am not as good as you who come and go in the wind and waves. I don't have any good ideas for a while. Wei Sanfu also thinks the same as me Thoughts. We are going to stay here until after the Dragon Boat Festival, if there is no news after the Dragon Boat Festival, then we can only find out what to report.”
At that time, none of the aristocratic families in Jiangnan will be left behind.
Especially the Song family.
Their family has both boats and money.
Master Song Si's cold sweat couldn't stop breaking out.
He stood up immediately, bowed his hands to everyone present, and hissed: "Brothers, please save our Song family's life, this is a matter of the Zhujiu clan!"
The relationship between the Jiangnan family is intricate, and it is not possible to punish the nine clans, but the Song family has collapsed, and I am afraid that every family will be implicated.
Neither Mr. Peng nor Tao Qing spoke.
Although they also belong to the south, they are Fujian and Guangdong, so they can stay out of it.
Gu Chang remembered the dominance of the Peng family, how could he let the Peng family go so easily
He said indifferently: "This money is either transported by river or by sea. You should think carefully about how I will handle the business! As for me, I can only help you here. No matter how much it is, I don't have the ability."
Elder Peng glanced at Gu Chang lightly, and then half-closed his eyes again.
With the Song family at the forefront, he is not afraid of this matter.
Tao Qing has always been displeased with the fact that the Peng family is alone, so he thought about it for a while and asked Gu Chang: "If it is really found out that this matter is related to the Jiangnan family, the Shibo Department..."
Gu Chang couldn't help giving Tao Qing a thumbs up in his heart, thinking to himself, no wonder the Tao family can rise so quickly under Tao Qing's hands.
He said: "The family in the south of the Yangtze River can easily send two hundred thousand taels of silver to the third prince, which shows the wealth of the family in the south of the Yangtze River. The emperor just rebuilt the Xiyuan a few days ago, and the money is in a hurry, and he is forcing the household department to find a way! Mr. Sun Still complaining, people from Jinyiwei and Dongxichang are becoming more and more dereliction of duty, and the assassination of the second prince is so big that they have not been able to find out. Did they not take the second prince seriously? Or were they afraid of offending the two princes? And mud? After all, it has been two years since the incident, and for such a big incident, it was kept secret during the investigation, and many courtiers did not know what happened."
The implication is that maybe the emperor is planning to use this matter to extort money from the Jiangnan family.
It's not impossible either.
Otherwise, why did they send Wang Qibao out of Beijing again.
Wang Qibao was the one who could enter and leave the emperor's bedroom at will without notification.
Everyone present looked at each other in blank dismay, only Pei Yan, with lowered eyelids showing no expression.
Tao Qing always thought that Pei Yan was very wise and close to a demon, but seeing him like this made him feel calmer.
If the emperor wants to extort money from the Jiangnan family, then the Fujian and Guangdong families should not try to escape, he can just follow behind the Pei family—he will also donate money if the Pei family donates money, and the Pei family will not donate if they don’t donate, the premise is that they are tight. Follow the Pei family and never fall behind.
He regretted it a little.
The Tao family should have married the Pei family earlier.
You can't marry a girl, it's not bad to marry a daughter-in-law.
What's more, there are few girls in Pei's family, so they pay special attention to girls' families.
The only ones in their family who are not engaged are Miss Fourth and Miss Fifth.
Fifth Miss is brother Pei Yan's daughter, and the Tao family needs to find someone who can study.
The eldest son of the second brother's family or the third child of their family
Tao Qing pondered in his heart.
Everyone has their own ideas, and the hall gradually becomes audible.
The laughter and voices outside came faintly, making the hall seem more quiet, but it also reminded them of the things outside.
Pei Yan recruited Ah Ming to question her: "You're good, don't let people offend the women. The lectures at Zhaoming Temple are hosted by our Pei family."
Pei Yan had already said this sentence early in the morning.
Ah Ming hurriedly said: "Third master, don't worry, outsiders are not allowed to enter the meditation room on the east side even if they have famous posts. We have sent someone who knows them to be on duty at the door for the young masters of the Song family and Peng family, so we won't let them mess around." let's go."
Most of the meditation rooms in Zhaoming Temple were taken over by the Pei family, especially the meditation room on the east side, where all the female relatives rested.
Pei Yan nodded, still feeling uneasy.
He broke up with Yu Tang yesterday, of course he knew that she was a heartless person, no matter how important it was, he would rest for one night at most and forget about it, just like in the past, he was caught by him for pulling the banner of the Pei family. If she stopped, she would act as if nothing had happened when she saw her again.
She should be happily visiting Zhaoming Temple with his nieces today, right
The thought flashed across his mind, and he asked Ah Ming again: "Did the Wei family and the Wu family go up the mountain?"
Although it was stated that the genius was a lecture meeting, it stands to reason that the Wei family and the Wu family should send someone to clean and decorate the wing room for them to stay in advance, and send someone to guard there.
Ah Ming really didn't know about this.
He was taken aback for a moment, and immediately said, "I'll go and ask about it now."
Then he ran away in a hurry.
When he came back after inquiring clearly, there was an argument in the hall for some unknown reason, while Pei Yan and Tao Qing were whispering something.
He thought for a while, and walked to Pei Yan's side lightly, only to hear Pei Yan say to Tao Qing: "Don't listen to Gu Chaoyang's alarmist talk. There is a way to solve everything. Since the emperor is short of money, We might be able to use money to settle this matter. I can still talk to Wang Qibao. Since Yin Mingyuan asked his wife to bring me a letter saying that he wants to eat sweet and sour fish and Dongpo pork, we have to go to Suzhou. If The matter in Huai'an is very urgent, so you can go to Huai'an first, and I will go to Suzhou by myself."
When he was speaking, he might have sensed that Ah Ming was coming. He raised his head, changed the subject immediately, and asked Ah Ming, "Have the two families arrived yet?"
Tao Qing thought he had something important to do, so he waited beside him.
Ah Ming swallowed nervously, and then said in a low voice: "Here we are! I'm cleaning the wing, see me and ask, thank you, and I also rewarded you with two red seals."
Pei Yan waved his hands, as if it was a trivial matter, and continued: "Did they go to greet Mrs. Yu?"
Ah Ming said: "Go. It is said that Mrs. Yu and Ms. Yu are copying Buddhist scriptures. Mrs. Yu said a few words to them and then served tea to see off the guests. They are going to say hello to Mrs. Yu after cleaning .”
"Didn't you go out to play?" Pei Yan frowned, her face tensed, as if it would rain anytime in June.
Tomorrow is the lecture, and the hawkers who heard the news have already set up a stall outside Zhaoming Temple, and there are even jugglers.
Ah Ming scratched her head and didn't know.
Didn't go out to play
Do you mean Mrs. Yu
Mrs. Yu looked demure and gentle, how could she run out to play like a little girl.
But in front of Tao Qing, if he asked such a question, he would be laughed at as the third master's personal book boy, who can't handle even a trivial matter.
He could only bite the bullet and said at a loss, "Miss Yu is not feeling well, Mrs. Yu will definitely not go out!"
"Miss Yu is not feeling well?" Pei Yan stared at Ah Ming with cold eyes.
Ah Ming couldn't help shivering.
He rarely saw Pei Yan like this.
I lost my temper in front of outsiders, and I couldn't hide it even if I didn't say it.
Ah Ming hurriedly said: "I just heard from the elder sister in the old Anren's yard. I'm going to ask someone to see if I have invited a doctor? What prescription has been prescribed?"
Only then did Pei Yan realize that he was too emotional.
If Miss Yu was really seriously ill, someone in charge would have reported to him long ago, and had gone back to the city to invite a doctor. They wouldn't have just invited the doctor brought by their Pei family to see her sick.
He let out a long breath, feeling that his chest was not as congested as before, and said, "Then you go to Miss Yu's place to have a look, and come back and tell me."
Pei Yan's tone was very indifferent, but he was thinking in secret, could it be that I got mad at you yesterday
He thought of the back he saw when he left yesterday.
That little girl has always been very angry, and she must be upset when she is so pissed off by him, and it is possible that she is angry.
But she was also a little too petty.
It was just teasing her, but she took it seriously!
Pei Yan was displeased, but felt a little guilty for no reason.
Go and have a look, just take a look, lest you really make a mess of your popularity.
After all, she is a little girl, she is lively, cheerful, open-minded and forthright, but compared with the real kid, she is still very delicate.
Thinking of this, Pei Yan snorted a few times and told Ah Ming: "Go and come back!"
Ah Ming felt that she was on the right track, she didn't dare to ask more questions, and ran out of the hall like flying.
Pei Yan looked dissatisfied.
Ah Ming can barely be regarded as following her since she was a child, and she is still petty in how she behaves.
He shook his head in his heart, but when he looked up, he saw Tao Qing's playful eyes.
Pei Yan was stunned.
Tao Qing said: "Miss Yu? Who is it? Are you relatives? We are at the critical moment of life and death, and you are still thinking about other people's illnesses? Tell me, do you want me to send you for your sake? Somebody go to say hello to Mrs. Yu?"
