Yu Fu said to be eye-catching, but Qi An and Qi Zhou didn't know how to be eye-catching.
Guhou's mansion kept a low profile all his life, and Gu Huaijiang's soldiers and horses also accumulated a lot of money in his life, but they never allowed the people of Guhou's mansion to spend extravagantly.
If you want to say that the most eye-catching thing Guhou's mansion has done is probably after Yufu arrived, they spent all their money to collect all kinds of clothes, jewelry, food and other things for her, right
Just when the father and son didn't know what to do, Ji Chengfa led a group of Beili envoys from the post house and moved into Guhou's mansion with a mighty momentum that attracted people's attention.
"You people in Guhou's Mansion won't do such things as eye-catching, just leave it to me!"
Ji Chengfa patted his chest, full of confidence at a young age, Qi Zhou couldn't help shivering in front of him.
It is said that this young master Ji is the devil king of the world, will he smash Yufu's orders without any seriousness? Before Qi Zhou could stop him, Ji Chengfa dragged him out.
"Master Ji, slow down, slow down!"
Gu Shubai and Yufu came out from the west chamber, seeing the two of them dragging the other out of the door, couldn't help laughing.
He suddenly thought of something, "Young Master Ji is a child of the Beili royal family, is he of the same clan as you or a foreign branch?"
Yu Fu said: "It's the same family, in terms of blood relationship, his father is my father's younger brother, and he is my first cousin."
Gu Shu raised his eyebrows, "So, is your surname Ji?"
Yu Fu nodded slightly, "Well, this question is a bit complicated, I will explain it to you slowly when I have a chance in the future."
Ji Yufu.
Gu Shubai recited it several times, he watched Yu Fu grow up from a young age, the two went through many hardships and obstacles from acquaintance to heart-to-heart, he never thought that he only knew Yu Fu's surname until now.
Yu Fu raised his chin and motioned in the direction of Ji Chengfa and Qi Zhou's departure, "I'm a little worried."
Gu Shubai said: "I'm also a little worried. You are a young cousin who is courageous, and his daily actions are already eye-catching enough. Now that you have your way, will the entire imperial capital be overturned?"
Yu Fuxian put his hand on his chin, "I'm not worried about Cheng Fa, but Qi Guan. He's not young, I hope he won't be tossed by Cheng Fa until his bones fall apart."
Gu Shubai glanced at her indifferently, and said after a while, "Yu Fu, you've failed in learning."
Yu Fu let out a chuckle, and walked towards the upper room, "Let's go and see the third brother first, I heard that the elder sister took care of the third brother for one night, if the reason for this is revealed, the eldest brother will blame me again Learned badly."
There is no need for Yufu to explain this reason, Gu Shubai can also guess it.
"It seems that Tianshu finally doesn't have to be unrequited love..."
When the two arrived at the upper room, they saw that Gu Huaijiang had already got up to practice martial arts in the courtyard, Yuehu was sitting on the side and yawning, his head was nodding like a chicken pecking rice.
Seeing Yufu and Yufu, Gu Huaijiang hissed lightly.
Gu Shubai nodded knowingly, and said in a low voice, "Father suffered so much in prison, why didn't he take a rest when he finally came back?"
Gu Huaijiang smiled and said: "Because I was so bored in the prison, I didn't stretch my fists and feet for a long time, so I felt comfortable after getting up early and practicing. My body is still strong, so you don't have to worry."
They were standing in the courtyard talking, Yuehu didn't notice it at all, and slept soundly, Yu Fu couldn't help laughing, "Did Elder Sister take care of Third Brother all night?"
Gu Huaijiang nodded, "Yes, she has worked hard all night. Han Mo is still asleep, and your elder sister said that there is no serious problem."
Yu Fu said: "I'll wake up Senior Sister and go back to sleep!"
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a lively movement outside, Yuehu was startled by the movement and fell off the chair.
"What's the matter? What's the matter!"
Opening his eyes, he saw the three of Yufu standing in the yard looking at her, Yuehu looked down at his embarrassed posture, and immediately got up and straightened his clothes.
The servants of the concierge hurried in and reported, "Master Ji, Mr. Ji and Guanshi... have bought a lot of things!"
Gu Hou's family has a great career, how many things have they never seen
Even so, when everyone heard the news and went out to see it, they were still shocked.
In front of the gate of the mansion was a tall grand master's chair. Ji Chengfa sat on it with his feet crossed, the back of the chair was higher than others, and he pointed out his fingers to direct everyone to move things into the mansion.
There are various colors of silk and satin, such as crimson, light yellow, and light purple that women like, and indigo, dark blue, and dark red that men are accustomed to.
It took more than a dozen people to move into the mansion at once, forming a colorful river.
After that, there are all kinds of jewelry, ornaments and other utensils. The gold, silver and jade wares are so brilliant that people can't even see them. There are also all kinds of food with the characteristics of the imperial capital, ranging from jade cakes for ten taels of silver in Yushanlou, down to candied haws on the side of the road for a penny...
The hawker selling candied haws carried the whole candied haws target, walked in slowly, and looked around at the sights of Guhou Mansion.
"My dear, Gu Hou's mansion is really magnificent!"
"You can't watch it for too long!"
Ji Chengfa jumped down from the chair, stretched out his hand and pulled out two bunches of red candied haws from the target, one in his left hand and the other in his right, and gnawed on both sides without delay.
Yufu and the others all looked at him, Ji Chengfa was gnawing vigorously, suddenly realized something was wrong, raised his head and smiled at Yufu, and stretched out the candied haws he had gnawed, "Sister Yufu, do you want to eat?"
Yu Fu looked at the glistening saliva at the corner of his mouth, with a look of disgust.
Ji Chengfa is clearly acting for his own benefit, relying on Yufu's order to buy delicious food for himself.
Qi Zhou was out of breath, he held the door and rushed in, "Master Hou, young lady, and five storytellers from a small opera group and a group of singers, where do these dozens of people settle?"
Hearing the sound, Gu Yi ran out to take a look, his eyes were as big as copper bells, "My boy, I bought not only things but also people, how much money does it cost? Young master, do you buy a whole street in the imperial capital?" came back?"
Ji Chengfa was biting a candied haws in his mouth, with bulging cheeks on both sides, and glared at Gu Yi, "What a street, you underestimate me, I took your family manager Qi to pack five streets, and there are still things that haven't been delivered yet. !"
After finishing speaking, he looked at Yufu proudly, "Sister Yufu, I told you earlier, don't worry about my work!"
Everyone looked at Yu Fu in unison, and Yu Fu looked embarrassed, "Well... that's good, that's very eye-catching."
It's so eye-catching, I'm afraid that at this moment, the emperor's capital, from the court hall to the market, knows that Guhou's mansion has bought a bunch of goods and people, and is living an even more carefree life than before.
It's just that the money also flowed out like sea water, Yu Fu was secretly worried about Gu Huaijiang's treasury, wondering how much money Chen Jingxing had brought with him during his mission.
As Yu Fu expected, the commotion in Gu Hou's mansion early in the morning has already been known to everyone in the city.
Everyone's eyes in the imperial capital were fixed on this place, especially on the court hall, and there was a lot of discussion when they saw this scene.
The news quickly spread to the imperial study room, and all the courtiers waiting in the imperial study room looked up silently.
They watched Ning Chengzhi's face turn from white to blue, and then from blue to red, as if he had been slapped in the face in public.
——The people in Guhou's mansion have not been cleared of their crimes, but they did such a high-profile thing. How is this different from slapping Ning Chengzhi in public
The atmosphere was extremely awkward, there was no wind in the air, and sweat oozed from the foreheads of several courtiers.
After a while, the former Minister of Dali Temple, Pei Zheng, stood up, "Your Majesty, Prince Beili and his party are still in Guhou's Mansion. According to the etiquette, His Majesty should send someone to Guhou's Mansion to receive condolences yesterday. Too many things happened yesterday. It's justifiable, if you delay today, you will be despising Beili's national prestige!"
When he spoke first, all the officials raised their heads and looked at Ning Chengzhi earnestly.
Ning Chengzhi knew that all the officials had the same idea as Pei Zheng, so he naturally knew that he couldn't offend Bei Li, but he couldn't save his own face. After careful consideration, he finally made a choice between the two.
"According to my will, I ordered Pei Zheng to arrange all the affairs of Beili's envoy and his party. Today, I will go to Guhou's mansion to receive condolences. To show my mercy, I will withdraw the guards outside the gate of Guhou's mansion. The people in the government will not be put in prison for the time being.”
Pei Zheng clasped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, according to Dong Ling's etiquette, we should welcome guests one level higher. The person who came is the Crown Prince..."
Pei Zheng quickly raised his eyes to look at Ning Chengzhi, and the latter's face was getting ugly again, so he quickly added, "Of course we can't let His Majesty go to receive him in person, but His Majesty has no princes and no princes under his knees. I'm afraid the guests still think it's not good manners."
Ning Chengzhi's expression softened slightly, "Then what do you think should be done?"
Pei Zhengdao: "Why don't you invite Uncle Ning Tang to join you? Uncle Ning Tang is a child of the royal family, and his seniority is His Majesty's uncle. Although he is not as noble as the blood of the royal family, he is not far behind. More importantly, he is eloquent and eloquent." , and his wife is also on good terms with Princess Yufu, maybe she can comfort the princess for His Majesty."
Ning Chengzhi heard that what he said made sense, so he nodded, "Although Yufu has never cared about my rewards, you should bring generous gifts to Guhou Mansion, no matter what, this is my courtesy."
He can take the initiative to think of sending generous gifts to Yufu, which is enough to show that he is afraid of Beili's national prestige in his heart, and he has abandoned his face between his face and the state.
Pei Zhengdao: "Your Majesty is wise, what your Majesty said is right, Princess Yufu would not care for any generous gifts. If Your Majesty really wants to give gifts to make a happy ending, you should do what you like."
Ning Chengzhi has always wanted to please Yufu, but he has been unable to please him. Hearing Pei Zheng's words, he couldn't help being moved in his heart, and he recalled his previous ideas.
"How to match what you like?"
Pei Zheng thought for a moment, and bowed even lower, "The chief minister of Yin, in vain of the imperial decree, used his power for personal gain to put the whole family of Marquis Gu's mansion to death. He may even murder His Majesty's Eunuch Chi. If His Majesty is not punished for such a serious crime, Princess Yufu will be punished." How can you be satisfied?"
Ning Chengzhi was stunned, "I have already ordered Yin Shuo to go back to the mansion to meditate on my own past, so I can't interfere in government affairs these days, isn't it enough?"
Isn't that enough
Pei Zheng couldn't help sneering, "The crime of Gu Hou's mansion is an unwarranted crime, and any unwarranted crime can be sentenced to beheaded. Yin Shoufu's crime is as well known as Sima Zhaozhi's heart, so it can be settled by meditating on one's own past?"
"you you… "
Ning Chengzhi trembled all over, pointing at Pei Zheng for a long while speechless.
Pei Zheng straightened his back, neither humble nor overbearing. He didn't make any protests when he was taken away from the position of Minister of Dali Temple.
Waiting for the day when Yin Shuo is convicted.
Ning Chengzhi said "you" for a long while, but "you" couldn't figure out why, and pointed at Pei Zheng's hand, which fell to the ground slumped.
"Okay, I will temporarily suspend Yin Shuo for review, and hand over the affairs of the court-China meeting to the cabinet elders. As for the review of Yin Shuo..."
Among the courtiers at the head of the court, he looked and looked, either he was a person who was obedient, or he was a person who obeyed Yin Shuo, none of them was worthy of the post of review.
He reluctantly nodded to Pei Zheng, "I'll leave it to you for review!"
Pei Zheng immediately straightened his back, "The minister leads the order!"
…
"Young Master Ning, I entrust you with the reception of Princess Yufu and her party. As you know, I will only investigate cases, so how can I receive envoys?"
Pei Zheng and Ning Xuan rode their horses to the entrance of Changjie. Ning Xuan couldn't help laughing when he saw his impatient look, "Master Pei is the best candidate for Dali Siqing, and he was transferred from his original position to the seemingly wealthy In idle work, if I change, I will be angry."
Pei Zheng snorted coldly, "Did Yin Shuo get Liu Zhen's idiot to take my position, did he think I would accept it so shamelessly? I know that I am not as prestigious and connected as Mr. Ji and Chen at the court." Elder Ge, seeing that neither of them could persuade His Majesty, he hibernates until now and waits for the opportunity, and now I finally let me wait for the opportunity."
Looking through his calm face, Ning Xuan seemed to have seen a flame bursting out of his chest, spitting out a tongue of excitement.
He couldn't bear to disturb Pei Zheng's interest, "Master Pei, go and do what you want. Leave Princess Yufu to me, and Ning Xuan will not disgrace her."
Pei Zheng laughed loudly, tightened the reins, turned the horse's head, and led a group of people behind him towards the west of the long street.
It is the direction of Xiangfu.
His back view was full of joy, Ning Xuan set up a canopy to watch him go away, couldn't help the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, "It's not that I won't report, the time has not yet come, Yin Shuo, you also have today."
He waved his hand behind him and turned his horse's head, "Let's go to Guhou Mansion!"
The gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion was closed tightly, and the huge mansion was silent, when suddenly there was a loud knock on the door, which made the whole Xiang's Mansion tremble three times.
"According to His Majesty's order to examine Yin Shuo, the people inside will immediately open the door!"
The soldier who knocked on the door kept calling Yin Shuo by his first name instead of addressing Yin Shoufu respectfully, and the guard at the door trembled with his hands and murmured, "It's over, this time it's really over..."
This means that Yin Shuo's position as chief assistant has been removed, and the eldest princess of Zhenjiang has been transformed into the prince of Beili. Once he returns, the prime minister's house will be wiped out.
The door bolt was pulled open, and a large group of soldiers rushed into the mansion, searching everywhere in the prime minister's mansion.
Yin Yan fell ill yesterday when she learned that Yin Jikui had kidnapped Yin Shuo at the execution ground. Princess Danyang and Yin Jikui were waiting in front of the bed when they were suddenly frightened by the loud noise outside and panicked.
I saw a large number of soldiers pouring into the courtyard, and the leading officials looked majestic.
Both of them are women who are not involved in government affairs, and they are not familiar with the ministers of the court. Yin Jixi didn't care much, and stepped forward to block the door.
"Who are you?"
Pei Zheng heard the sound and came over, seeing that Yin Jixie looked very familiar, only then did he realize that she was the Miss Yin family who had an argument with Yin Shuo in the hall yesterday.
Hearing that in order to save Guhou's family, she did not hesitate to kidnap her elder brother in the execution ground, Pei Zheng admired her courage and demeanor.
He waved his hand to signal the soldiers to retreat, "My officer, Pei Zheng, in the name of His Majesty, Yin Shuo has been suspended for review. This is Miss Yin, right?"
"Suspension review?"
Yin Jizheng showed joy, and Pei Zheng couldn't help laughing, wondering whether Yin Jizheng and Yin Shuo were biological.
Only then did she realize that she shouldn't be laughing at this moment, so she quickly restrained her expression, pointed into the room and said, "my father has not been involved in government affairs for many years, and my sister-in-law, Princess Danyang, is of royal blood, so there is no need to investigate here, right? What to ask, let me go with you."
Princess Danyang came out of the house, and worriedly took Yin Jiqian's hand, "Jiyi, he is your elder brother after all..."
Pei Zheng cupped his hands and interrupted her, "Naturally, the old prime minister and the eldest princess don't need to be censored, but they don't have any contact with criminal officials these days. As for some routine matters that require cross-examination, I ask Miss Yin to cooperate."
He believed that Yin Jiqian would fully cooperate with him, and she seemed to hope that Yin Shuo would subdue the law more than herself.
Yin Jixie nodded, turned to Princess Danyang and said, "Danyang, take good care of your father, and don't worry about your elder brother. No matter how numb you are, don't you want to help the evildoers right now?"
She said sternly: "Heavenly law reincarnates, retribution is not good, how many bad things he has done, how much retribution he has to bear now."
Princess Danyang was taken aback for a moment, Yin Jixie had already put aside her hand, and said firmly to Pei Zheng: "I will take you to find Yin Shuo, Mr. Pei, this way please."
