Chapter 261
Yan Sui nodded and sighed: "You have analyzed it almost. Chen Mo discussed with me about breaking the engagement the next day. He turned around and told the emperor. After making plans with the emperor, he went to tell Mr. Jiang that I was going to find his daughter to break the engagement.
"Ge Jiang has long been determined to take me down, so he will naturally seize the opportunity. Perhaps he discussed with Chen Mo how to lead me into the game, or directly accused me of something, so he contacted the Ministry of Justice in advance.
"But Mr. Jiang did not expect that the mantis stalked the cicada and the oriole was behind him. The emperor called him into the palace the next day. He could not control the matter in the mansion.
"Don't use the strategy set by the emperor to make me stunned. Miss Jiang's death must have been done by those who often help the emperor do dirty work. After everything was done, they put me in Miss Jiang's boudoir.
"After Mr. Jiang returned home, he might not have doubts when he saw Miss Jiang was actually dead. But the matter was beyond his control. Zhao Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Justice came so quickly, I was arrested and tortured, and the people from the Jinyiwei came so coincidentally that Zhao Yuanwailang was easily taken down.
"The subsequent things have developed step by step, and they are completely under the control of the Lord. Until today, the Lord has successfully put the shit basin on Mr. Jiang Ge with Chen Mo's hand. He may not have a day to turn over again."
Zhu Youning listened to Yan Sui's analysis and felt that all the hairs on her body stood up, and she shivered out of thin air. She hurriedly approached the brazier, baked her cold hands, and said for a while: "It's so terrible."
"Yes. It's so scary." Yan Sui also leaned over and roasted the fire, "It's a pity that I'm in a difficult position now. Once I entered this circle, it's impossible to not touch my body."
Zhu Youning also sighed lightly and asked, "You said that Chen Xiushuo did this for the Emperor this time, which was considered a dirty job. He publicly admitted in the court that he was bribed by Mr. Jiang, and that as a civil servant, he betrayed the conservative civil servant. How could he do anything in the court in the future? I think his situation is even more worrying than Mr. Jiang."
Yan Sui's lips bent slightly, and she smiled indifferently: "Look at it. Chen Mo must have known his way of retreat for a long time to help the emperor do this matter so sincerely. The emperor will put him out to a place where no one can control him."
"No one can control him?" Zhu Youning's big, lively eyes blinked, and an idea gradually took shape, "No, the emperor will ask Chen Xiu to go to the town you contracted along the Yellow River?"
Yan Sui nodded with praise in his eyes, "That's exactly what it is."
Zhu Youning is very smart and his thoughts are different from those of women nowadays. He can keep up with his ideas at all. He doesn't feel so happy when he talks to other people.
What's more, Zhu Youning's efforts made great contributions to his successful reversal of the case today.
Just now, Zhu Youning talked freely and excitedly fooled the emperor. Not only did he successfully avoid the problem of his reputation, but he also put a high hat on the businessmen, making people unable to say anything slandered.
When Yan Sui thought of Zhu Youning's appearance at that time, he felt itchy. Looking at the delicate and beautiful person in front of him, the smile patterns on the corners of his mouth deepened a lot.
Zhu Youning was analyzing the situation and was not interested in Yan Sui's "quirky".
At the beginning, local officials complained that the taxes were all belonged to him in several towns that Yansui rebuilt. They had no chance to peel off layers of skin, and many people impeached Yansui.
However, the emperor supported and also had some understanding. Now the officials in those places have replaced those who would not hinder the reconstruction and construction of dams.
It can be said that the towns along the Yellow River that Yan Sui was responsible for rebuilding and contracting were almost his one-man show. Shen Wu was the one who became an official, which was equivalent to being under Yan Sui's protection.
How much credit is it to govern the Yellow River?
Once successful in the future, Chen Mo will return to the capital again, and it will be time for fish to jump into the dragon gate.
Thinking of this, Zhu Youning only felt that these people in ancient times were too smart, and even if they took a slight mistake, they would die!
"This world is so complicated and too dark!"
Zhu Youning said with emotion, "Everyone is a master of fiddling with power and conspiracy, and everyone is a chess piece. The chess player is high and the people who are chess pieces are also playing chess! The water in the capital is too deep, and it is really not suitable for me here! I think that if I stay here for a while, my hair will be completely white. It is still suitable for me in the countryside."
Yan Sui laughed at Zhu Youning's words, shook her head and said, "If you are not a person in the pool, how can you stay in the countryside? Your battlefield will sooner or later be moved to the capital.
"Even if you don't do it for yourself, aren't you doing it for your mentor?"
Yan Sui's last words really touched Zhu Youning's heart.
"Fang Qingtian has been involved in this time, whether it is out of his original intention or not, he has been pulled into the water by the Lord. If I am not wrong, Fang Qingtian should be promoted by the Lord next. He is now standing opposite to the conservative civil servants and has become a very sharp knife held by the Lord.
"The first one that conservative civil officials want to attack is Fang Qingtian.
"With the priest's character, I think Fang Qingtian will probably be exploited to extinguish the last bit of value and will be kicked away with one kick.
"Your mentor is in trouble. Would you ignore it?"
Zhu Youning had already thought about the truth that Yan Sui said before Fang Jinrui entered Beijing.
But if you think these things are the same thing, if you are told to others in person, the impact is another matter.
Zhu Youning shook his head and said, "So, only by making my mentor more valuable can I protect him. If I cannot make my mentor more valuable, I can only make myself more valuable. Those who want to act like this must also consider it before they can take action."
Speaking of this, Zhu Youning smiled and showed a pointed little tiger tooth, "Why do I think the road ahead is so difficult!"
Her smile was so cute, which made Yan Sui look at it and coughed, "You are a smart person. You can realize the key to things as soon as possible. It will not be difficult to leave if you make plans early. What's more, after this, we are grasshoppers tied to a rope, and I will help you."
When Zhu Youning saw Yan Sui coughing, his face turned a little red, and hurriedly said, "Are you still feeling uncomfortable? I have no doubts now, why don't we go back?"
Yan Sui nodded awkwardly, "I'll ask you one last question. How did you convince the people of the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce to donate? After they read your letter, they are willing to donate?"
Zhu Youning waved his hand, smiled sly, and lowered his voice: "I'm all talking nonsense on the spot."
"What?" Yan Sui's eyes widened.
Zhu Youning whispered: "If I don't bring the topic to things like donating money to control water, how could the emperor be biased towards us businessmen? What the emperor lacks the most now is silver, so I did this."
"So, you haven't lost this money yet?"
"Yes. But it doesn't matter. I'm also thinking about the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce. Four hundred thousand taels of silver are too many for the treasury where the rats are about to starve to death. The emperor will definitely be moved when he sees it. If he doesn't let him, how can I pass the test?
"In fact, who did not make any money in the family? As noble officials, their performance was not as good as that of our businessmen when the country was in trouble. The emperor knew everything in his heart.
"As for raising money, I naturally have a way."
Zhu Youning approached Yan Sui, blinked and said mischievously: "Didn't the emperor praise the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce and say he would give me a plaque?"
Yan Sui looked at her treacherous appearance when plotting against others and couldn't help but say funny: "You are too bad."
"Where did I break it? Isn't this supposed to be?"
The solemn atmosphere just now was swept away.
Zhu Youning and Yan Sui stood up, butler Yan and Bai Ling, Dou Wanwan immediately came close. He heard that the two were planning to go back, so they packed up their things immediately, got in the car again, and returned to the uncle's mansion.
The Renyi Bo Mansion swept away the silence of more than a month and suddenly became lively. When Yan Sui got off the car, his family set off firecrackers and spread talisman water to get rid of bad luck. After a long time of struggle, Yan Sui entered the door.
It was Yan Sui who ordered the dinner to be prepared and ordered Butler Yan to go and invite the Eighth Master of Buddha in person.
After the housekeeper Yan went to the invitation, he came back to serve Yan Sui to change his clothes. He was still talking to Yan Sui about the experience of the Eighth Master of Buddha coming to Bo’s Mansion.
"My uncle didn't see it. Miss Zhu is so smart! Before I could understand what it meant, Ms. Zhu's mind had turned several times! She was not at all inferior to the fight against Fo Ba Master. That night, Miss Jiang's body was successfully obtained.
"The next day, Master Footer came to see Miss Zhu and expressed his loyalty on the spot!
"My uncle is indeed right. You are not at home these days, and our family is full of big and small things. Although she is young and has a steady attitude towards doing things, she is more independent than the wife and the old lady in our house.
"I have lost my mind when you are in the North Town Fushi these days. Miss Zhu can take charge of the overall situation. She is still so concerned about your affairs and never thought of leaving first."
Obviously, Mr. Yan didn't know the topic of the matter.
Yan Sui didn't stop him, and was happy to listen to these things.
Therefore, when the dinner was placed in the warm room, Yan Sui had already learned about the performance of everyone, including Zhu Youning, during this period.
When the Eighth Master of Buddha arrived at the warm-up hall, it was already dark.
The six-sided windows in the warm cabinet are tightly closed, six palace lanterns are hung in the small space, and brass crane lamp posts stand in the corner of the wall, making the room warm and bright. Even the exquisite dishes on the Eight Immortals table placed in it look particularly delicious.
Yan Sui was wearing a silver-white round neckline and narrow-sleeved brocade robe, with a jade belt and a jade hairpin tied with his hair. In the warm yellow light, he was as handsome as an exiled immortal.
The Eighth Master of Foshan has met Yan Sui several times, and this is the first time he has a new understanding of this person's handsome appearance than a woman.
"Yan Bo Ye, Jiang Yu, is under the guise of Jiang Yu. He was dismissed for his official position because of the burning of Jiang's family. Now he has been arranged by the emperor to protect Bo Ye's safety."
The rosary on the Baye Buddha's hand was wrapped around the wrist twice, and respectfully bowed to Yan Sui.
Yan Sui knew the origin of the Eighth Master of Buddha, so he naturally would not take it. He returned the ceremony and said, "Eighth Master of Buddha is loyal to the emperor and is loyal to him. It is admirable. Please take your seat soon."
"I dare not, there is a difference between master and servant, how can I attend the seat when I am humble?"
"Today I only have friends, no matter what my superiority is, and I am originally from a grassroots and not born rich. I don't have so many rules here."
Yan Sui invited each other so sincerely, it would be unbeautiful if the Eighth Master of Buddha continued to refuse, so he would accompany him and sit down sideways.
Yan Sui asked Butler Yan again: "Do you invite Miss Zhu?"
燕管家笑道:“已经命人去请了.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a servant greeting and saluting came from outside. Then he picked up the dark green brocade warm curtain, wore a light pink brocade jacket, eight bean green skirt, and a cotton snow jacket with white fox fur collar, and walked in with his maid.
燕绥与佛八爷同时站起身来.
Zhu Youning smiled and bowed: "I'm late, let's wait for you for a long time."
"It's okay, we just sat down. Besides, there are no outsiders today, we are all our own people, and there are no rules."
Yan Sui personally set up an embroidery sill for Zhu Youning. Zhu Youning thanked him, and the three of them sat down again.
Yan Sui first picked up the wine cup and said, "I was lucky enough to get out of trouble this time. Thanks to your help, I will never thank you. I wish you two a cup. I'll give you a cup. I'll give you my cheers. Miss Jiu and Master Fo Ba, please do whatever you want."
说着就端起酒盏,一仰头先干为敬.
Just like Yan Sui, Fo Baye drank the wine in his glass with great pleasure.
Zhu Youning tasted the taste like a kitten first, and found that the juice contained in his wine cup was actually filled with juice. He secretly praised Yan Sui's care and couldn't help but chuckled and drank it all.
Yan Sui was amused when he saw Zhu Youning's careful appearance, and the corners of his lips were raised happily. He called the two to eat food, and chatted about things that did not involve court affairs.
After three rounds of drinking, the three of them were very happy. Zhu Youning looked at Foba Master Fo, then looked at Yan Sui, and said, "Brother Yan, it is now the 21st of the twelfth lunar month. I want to go back to Fuyang County as soon as possible. I have been away from home for so long, and my family is also very worried."
Yan Sui said: "The road is blocked with heavy snow, and it's New Year's Eve. It's almost New Year's Eve. If you get on the road like this, it will take nearly two months to return to Fuyang. Why not stay and spend the New Year in the capital. When the Lord's reward arrives, wouldn't it be nice to bring it back to Hangzhou? Let's find a quick step to send a message from Lingzun and Lingtang."
朱攸宁有点犹豫.
她当然知道路不好走.
But she always feels a little awkward when spending the New Year at Yansui’s house.
Seeing Zhu Youning hesitating, Yan Sui said, "Lingzun and Lingtang must also hope that you will be safe on the road. The road outside is really not convenient for you, a girl, to rush to your house."
Seeing Yan Sui and Zhu Youning like this, Fo Ba Master smiled and said, "What Yan Bo Ye said is, wouldn't it be nice to bring the emperor's reward after the New Year and escort Miss Zhu back to Fuyang?"
Zhu Youning secretly praised the Bayou of Buddha as a smart person who can seize the opportunity.
He had already shaken his true feelings in front of them. If he stayed by Yan Sui, he would be marginalized. He followed her to leave the capital and told the emperor that he was suspected of being sent away and would not be pursued. In the future, he would no longer be able to monitor Yan Sui. The emperor would slowly forget him and he could truly escape from the shackles of the Jinyiwei's identity.
