Seeing Yan Ruyu remained silent, Yang Guofu's heart was bleeding again, and then he said with pain: "Commander Yan, please also tell the queen that the Ministry of Works should still have deposits, but now Yang is not the minister, I will propose to the Ministry of Works to repair the residences of the palace maids in the palace."
heard this
Yan Ruyu nodded, remembering what her mistress had said: after delivering the gifts and agreeing to the task, she could leave, but she should remember to thank Lord Yang.
So he stood up and clasped his fists towards Yang Guofu: "In that case, I would like to thank Mr. Yang on behalf of the young lady."
After saying that, he added: "Give me the things, I will take them back with me."
Still straightforward and exceptionally honest.
I was thinking to myself, it’s quite simple, I just need to keep watching, and it turns out that it’s right to listen to the lady!
Chapter 172 Wife, Come Down Quickly
Yan Ruyu leaves when she says she will and never procrastinates.
So after seeing Yang Guofu's reluctant look and taking away the set of the four treasures of the study by Wang Xiangzhi, who was known as the "Saint of Calligraphy", and the inkstone as black as jade, Yan Ruyu left.
Before leaving, he specifically reminded Yang Guofu not to forget to renovate the palace dwellings in the palace, and to do it quickly because winter was about to arrive.
Yang Guofu was angry, but dared not say anything, and even went to the gate of the mansion to see Yan Ruyu off.
Looking at Yan Ruyu's leaving back, Yang Guofu's face looked extremely ugly.
Yan Jingqing was also standing aside, brows furrowed, and was about to say something to Yang Guofu.
But Yang Guofu turned around and walked back into the mansion.
Yan Jingqing had no choice but to follow.
As soon as he entered the mansion, Yang Guofu immediately said to the steward beside him: "Kill that Japanese, and let Wu Laoliu and his men kill all the Japanese in the Japanese embassy. Do it thoroughly, even if we have to burn the embassy down, we must ensure that no one is left alive. Damn, a bunch of dogs, how can they live in the city? Next time I build an embassy, I'll build it in the suburbs for them!"
Upon hearing this, the steward immediately responded.
But Yang Guofu thought that it was because of that bastard Inoue Xianichiro who suddenly came today, so he immediately said, "Let someone torture him for me, don't let him die quickly."
The steward nodded again.
Yan Jingqing listened to Yang Guofu's words without saying anything. It was really that this disaster today came inexplicably!
And since things have already happened, we must eradicate the roots of the problem!
Especially now that His Majesty is clearly taking the lead in arresting them.
After giving instructions to the steward, Yang Guofu turned around and looked at Yan Jingqing and said, "We need to go to the old man's place."
Yan Jingqing was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Can the old man see us?"
Yang Guofu shook his head, "She has to meet me. I thought about it carefully. Why did Su Changan suddenly ask Yan Ruyu to come here? And didn't you see how Yan Ruyu looked just now? She didn't say anything, just sat there and looked at me. It was obvious that she knew everything, so she said nothing, as if she saw through everything. I'm afraid it wasn't arranged by Su Changan, but maybe it was arranged by His Majesty. Maybe he came to warn me or there is a follow-up. I need to discuss it with the old man, otherwise who knows what will happen. What's more, why did Su Changan go to the brothel for no reason? She is the queen. What kind of place is that? Would His Majesty let her go? And she happened to meet the Japanese. Why is it such a coincidence?"
Yan Jingqing heard this and thought of Yan Ruyu who had been staring at Yang Guofu expressionlessly since the Japanese came. Wasn't this just to see Yang Guofu's reactions? Why? Go back and report!
After figuring it out, Yan Jingqing subconsciously said, "Your Majesty is setting a trap for us again!!"
Yang Guofu nodded.
Yan Jingqing took a breath. If this was really a trap set by His Majesty, then today he was saved from a desperate situation!
And thinking of Yang Guofu's prompt decision, he immediately praised: "As expected of Guofu, he saw the Japanese man's situation in time. If it were me, I would have made a mistake. But let's not talk about this, we can talk on the way. Go change your clothes quickly, I'll have someone report to the old man first."
Yang Guofu nodded immediately, secretly congratulating himself on his cleverness, but at the same time he was also a little proud. The little emperor set a trap for me, and I fell for it! ? ?
But
Thinking about how much blood he had lost this time, Yang Guofu felt so sad and hateful! !
Looking at Yang Guofu, Yan Jingqing naturally saw something from his expression and wanted to say something comforting.
But Yang Guofu said with a sullen face: "Jing Qing, you don't need to comfort me. Have you forgotten my strength? Although I feel bad, it's just a drop in the bucket. It doesn't matter!! Besides, there are legitimate ways to make money. If Yu Yang and the others didn't pass the exam, wouldn't they have to be recommended? And those businessmen who want to follow our path, these things don't count as bribes I took. They are all legitimate ways. There are ways to make money."
Yan Jingqing heard it, nodded, and said nothing more, because as Yang Guofu said, it was just a drop in the bucket.
But what to say.
The sound of wailing came again from another place.
Upon hearing this, Yang Guofu immediately yelled, "Fuck you! If you cry again, I'll send you back home! Cry, cry, cry, you only know how to cry!"
Yan Jingqing was helpless, but still sighed.
It still hurts after all.
After all, that set of Wang Xiangzhi's four treasures of the study is worth more than 200,000 taels!
Not to mention the black and purple jade inkstone that naturally looks like an ink turtle.
……
When Yan Ruyu returned to the Su Mansion, it was almost evening.
Because she knew that Su Changan was afraid that Su Liu and the others would worry, she deliberately concealed what happened in the Shihua Pavilion today. Therefore, she did not directly tell Su Changan about the two good things she brought, nor what happened in the Yang Mansion.
Su Changan didn't ask, but continued to chat with Su Liu and the others for a while, and then returned to the palace.
When the imperial examination papers are being marked, there will be invigilators present to monitor whether the examiners are being fair and just in marking the papers and examining the questions.
Su Wenqing and Su Zimu were both assigned as supervisors.
So Su Changan didn't see the two of them in the Su Mansion.
Although Su Liu knew that Su Chang'an was in good health, after hearing about the vomiting of blood, she asked the empress to go to the palace the next day to make sure that Su Chang'an was fine.
But today he was still very concerned and asked a lot of questions. Whenever Su Changan looked unwell, he would immediately ask if he was feeling unwell, and before leaving, he would give him a lot of tonic medicine.
Su Changan was helpless. Every time he went back to the Su Mansion, it was like he was coming to purchase goods. He came empty-handed and left with a full load.
Nothing big happened at the Su Mansion. At most, it became a lot more lively after Su Zifan came back.
However, Su Changan did not see his fourth uncle this time, because there were too many guards on both sides, and he had to be cautious in their placement, so he only came back once and lived in the barracks with his men.
However, Su Changan learned that his third sister, whom he had never met, would return to Beijing in two days.
Speaking of this third sister, according to the original schedule, she was supposed to come back before the military examination began, and she was also supposed to take part in the military examination.
But Su Liu told him that the third sister saw a heartless and unfaithful man driving away an orphan and a widow to marry a young woman on the road, and she couldn't stand it, so she meddled in other people's business, and this delayed time.
Su Changan was helpless, but quite curious about this third sister. After all, according to what she had heard, this was a girl with a strong sense of justice, but very low fighting ability.
Su Changan also had a chat with Su Linhan. According to Su Linhan, there should be no problem with the B list, but she is not sure about the A list.
Seeing Su Linhan so confident, Su Changan thought it was almost certain.
As for Su Liheng, he didn't see him either. However, thinking about the compensation issue at the Shihua Pavilion, Su Changan asked the steward of the Su Mansion to go there and ask Su Liheng to bring some silver over.
of course
Su Zhaoxin and Su Wan'er continued to pester Su Changan, asking him all kinds of questions.
And Su Wan'er kept asking about Su Chang'an's current strength.
Su Changan said lightly, "Sixth grade."
The little girl was depressed for a long time because she was no match for her older sister. But she soon became happy again because she felt that this was the ability that an older sister should have.
However, Su Zhaoxin spoke mysteriously, saying that he was now quite powerful.
However, Su Changan thought that Su Zhaoxin was talking nonsense. After all, he knew how well Su Zhaoxin practiced boxing.
Of course, it is worth mentioning that Su Changan is now back to wearing daughter’s clothes.
Because he caused a commotion by wearing men's clothes and going to the Su Mansion, not only did some maids blush, but even Su Linhan didn't dare to look at Su Changan anymore.
So Su Liu immediately took Su Changan to change back into her daughter's clothes.
This puzzled Su Changan for a long time.
As for that!
After saying goodbye to everyone in the Su Mansion, he set out on the journey back to the palace.
Linghua was carrying many bags.
Su Changan couldn't bear to watch it, so he helped to take some, and Yan Ruyu naturally did the same.
On the way, Yan Ruyu also told Su Changan what happened in the Yang Mansion, as well as every word of Yang Guofu and Yan Jingqing, word for word.
After listening to the whole process, Su Changan was surprised.
how to say
It must be a good thing that things are going so smoothly.
But
Su Changan listened to the whole process and couldn't help but complain, "Stupid teammates killed me."
But looking at Yan Ruyu, Su Changan asked: "Did you really just sit there and watch? You kept staring at Yang Guofu when so many things happened afterwards? And you asked for the things very directly?"
Yan Ruyu nodded and said, "Well, didn't the young lady tell me to keep staring at you? Besides, I thought I was being quite tactful when I said you need the four treasures of the study to practice calligraphy."
Su Changan looked at the honest and straightforward Yan Ruyu and sighed, "Hey, I want all my martial arts talents, but why are you so stupid?"
Yan Ruyu blinked and looked at Su Changan. She felt that her young lady was scolding her, but it also seemed like she was not scolding her.
In the palace today, I don’t know if it’s because Li Nishang is gone, and as a result, all the arrogant and domineering palace servants who followed her have been punished.
The atmosphere in the entire palace felt very different from before.
Although the palace walls were still high, the palace servants on the road were laughing and joking, looking very happy.
According to Linghua, no one dared to laugh so freely before, because Li Nishang didn't like to see people laugh, and if any palace maid laughed and was seen by her subordinates, they would be punished.
Su Changan was helpless, but thinking that she was the queen now, she decided to help improve the lives of the people in the harem.
After all, think about it, they are all poor people.
But how to improve it requires careful consideration.
On the way to the corridor leading to Lingqi Pavilion, Su Changan saw Sun Shanggong and others from afar.
And noticed that Su Changan and the others had returned.
