Concubine Gaomen (45)

The old lady went, but she listened in a daze. Before she left, she left a message for Jin Chengan, telling him to stay in mourning for three years.

To maintain filial piety, you have to stay away from the capital. After three years of absence, you are even further away from the center of power.

Mrs. Chu anxiously walked around the room, "What should we do? The old lady is confused!"

"Shut up!" Jin Cheng'an opened his eyes suddenly and looked at Mrs. Chu with a look like a knife, "If you had an old lady who understood this, our family would not be what it is today."

This was a real slap in the face.

"I understand things? What do you want me to understand?" Mrs. Chu snorted coldly, "How many things have you told me about this family? Even my son and daughter-in-law were taken away years ago, and you just said

I didn’t explain anything. But now I think I don’t understand things. I don’t need to worry about anything inside or outside the house, big or small. When did I not understand how to deal with it?” Take me and the old lady.

For example, in all these years, the old lady had never taken care of a single day's affairs. When she came in, her mother-in-law was still alive, and the housework was always in her hands, and she never handed it over to her mother-in-law. Later, she gave it directly to herself.

After so many years of presiding over the middle school, is she still worse than an old lady who eats fasting and chants Buddha's name all day long, and doesn't know anything about secular things? "Now, my son has married a wife, and there are grandchildren. You have arranged it for me..."

Jin Chengan stood up, swung the curtain, and strode out. He had been worrying about these trivial things all day long, calculating the wealth in the house. If it weren't for Chu Yuan, how could he have married such a stupid woman.

Jin Shouren and Fourth Master were waiting in the study. When they saw Jin Chengan come in, Jin Shouren hurriedly greeted him: "Dad! Do you want to talk to my grandfather about what to do about this matter? Although it was the old lady's dying order, if the emperor steals her love,

It is not impossible to stay and continue serving. Loyalty, filial piety, filial piety, loyalty, and filial piety naturally come before filial piety."

Jin Chengan's body suddenly froze. Although this was the truth and he was indeed eager to make suggestions for himself, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the words coming from his son's mouth. Today, he can persuade himself not to pay attention to the old lady.

So tomorrow, when he leaves his will, can he also choose not to obey it? He opened his mouth to reprimand, but it can be seen that the fourth child is also there, and it is not good to break his son's son in front of the concubine.

Face, he just said a faint 'hmm' and turned to look at the fourth master with a sullen face: "What do you think? Now that I am not young anymore, I have established a family, so I have to have my own ideas. You can't do it here.

I can live a comfortable life under the protection of my father and brother."

The Fourth Master thought to himself that this was because he was feeling uncomfortable, and he came here to find a sense of presence. He stood up, bowed his hands, and then said: "Although it is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety, but when the old lady was seriously ill, my father

, I am also loyal to Emperor Daxing and His Majesty. Now, the big thing has been decided..." It is time to retire after having achieved success. The words rolled in his mouth again, and the words came out, "Father is worthy of the king's trust.

It's time to come back and fulfill your filial piety for the old lady."

Jin Chengan looked at the fourth master and saw that the boy just said, "The big deal has been decided."

Yes! The big deal has been decided! What are you going to do if you stay?

Hang around in front of the emperor and remind him that I know all the disgusting things you have done.

Is this Immortal Qing waiting for a slap on the butt? If it is really just repeated suppression, it will be easy to handle. I am afraid that the emperor will attack too harshly and viciously, and if he loses his life, there will really be no fun.

In this family, apart from the old lady, there is another understanding person. The fourth child can see clearly.

Jin Chengan went over and sat down: "You are right! I have fulfilled my duty as a minister to my father and king, and it is time for me to fulfill my duty as a son of man to the old lady."

It is said that a wise child is like a mother. The old lady has lost her sight in the past two years. But her eyes are blind and her heart is not blind. Everything is as clear as a mirror in her heart. She has stopped taking medicine and is giving herself some relief.

Provided an excuse.

Seeing that the eldest son still wanted to talk, he hurriedly waved his hands: "Don't say too much. It's settled now. I'll go with your second uncle, and you have to guard this house first. Okay, let's go and get busy."

The Fourth Master got up and took Jin Shouren away.

"Fourth child, what do you mean about my father..." Jin Shouren sighed, "When I come back in the future, where will there be room for my father to stand in the court?"

The fourth master looked at Jin Shouren and shook his head, "It's better not to mention the matter decided by my father to Prime Minister Chu..."

Jin Shouren's eyes lit up: "How could you not mention it? Thanks to your reminder, I will send someone to the Chu family."

The Fourth Master looked at Jin Shouren who had escaped and narrowed his eyes. Guiwu followed behind and asked in a low voice: "Master, do you want to ask the Crown Prince to ask for help? Or do you not want to ask him to ask for help?"

The fourth master glared at Gui Wu: "When you can understand, you can become a master too!"

When he returned to the yard, he saw that Lin Yutong was not there, so he asked the girl: "Where is your master?"

"Big girl... No! It's an aunt from the prince's side here." Man Yue replied in a low voice.

This is about Lin Yuzhi.

Man Yue served tea, "Do you want to tell the master?"

"No need!" Fourth Master picked up the tea, took a few sips, stood up and said, "When your mistress is finished, tell her that I am in the study. Tell her to do her business and leave me alone."

Man Yue hurriedly agreed and got up to see Fourth Master out.

In the East Flower Hall, Lin Yuzhi sat under Lin Yutong. There was no maid waiting in the room.

"Second sister, I won't hide it from you." Lin Yuzhi's face didn't show any strange color at all, "I'm just pretending."

Lin Yutong said in her heart, can I not know that you are just pretending? She waved her hand, "Whatever you want to do is all your business. You don't have to tell me these things."

"Second sister!" Lin Yuzhi stood up and stroked his slightly pregnant belly. "Second sister, the birth of this child will also be beneficial to you."

Lin Yutong became a little impatient, "I have helped you in whatever way I can help you before. You have chosen your own path now. Whether it is good or bad, you have to suffer by yourself. I will not interfere."

The corner of Lin Yuzhi's mouth moved, and it took him a long time to say: "It's nothing, I just want to ask you, is the new emperor now, Prince Heng? Why am I listening in a daze, as if there is an emperor's grandson?"

There was absolutely no grandson of the emperor in her previous life. What happened, and how did everything go so well that there was an extra grandson of the emperor? Everything is fine with her now, except for the fact that the news is too limited. Mrs. Chu treats her

He is raising it like a pig, but for the sake of the child in his belly. The only thing he relies on is the child's good fortune. If he has a grandson, where is the child's good fortune?

As a result, her expression became more and more anxious, "I heard it all from the girls whispering in private. But what do these girls know..."

Lin Yutong nodded, "Yes, there is an emperor's grandson, who should be called the prince now. Emperor Daxing adopted Prince Duan's eldest son as a concubine to the emperor. That's what happened." She refused to say more.

Already.

As soon as he finished saying this, he saw that Lin Yuzhi was deep in thought. Lin Yutong didn't want to sit here with her, so he stood up and called Sanxi, "Send my aunt back. You can send her there yourself."

Lin Yuzhi was stunned and wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Lin Yutong, "Now, although it is February, it is still very cold. People who are pregnant should not go out and wander around. If anything happens...

..." She looked at Lin Yuzhi's belly, "I can't bear it." There are many people who don't welcome this child in this house. If you don't hide yourself, you should give birth to the child first. What can you do by asking around about these things?

With her little level, what else can she want to change?

"I..." Lin Yuzhi grabbed Lin Yutong's sleeve, "I have one last thing to ask you. Help me get Chunmei from the Lin family..."

Lin Yutong wondered, did he have the face of a virgin? "You can get it back from the Lin family yourself, why do you have to ask me to come forward? You just want to tell the prince's wife, tell her not to go too far and not to reach out casually. Otherwise, this house will

There is still a sister like me here, if something happens to you, someone will stand up for you. But why don’t you think about me. My sister has become a concubine, where is my face? You call me

How do you get along with your sister-in-law, Mrs. Shizi? Stop challenging my limits under the guise of sisters." Before he finished speaking, Lin Yuzhi's face turned ugly. Lin Yutong ignored her and only said to Sanxi: "

Send my aunt over and tell the Crown Prince’s wife to take good care of the concubine’s room and don’t let her wander around again.”

Sanxi helped the livid-faced Lin Yuzhi out, and sighed in her heart, what is the big girl doing? Besides, her master is not a Bodhisattva who helps people in trouble, so if he can ask for anything, he will not get it.

After Chu Huaiyu dismissed Sanxi, he couldn't help but laugh, "Such an idiot, if you want to stay, let's stay. Tell me, why are girls from the same family so different? This fourth sister-in-law is an individual."

After Sanxi took Lin Yuzhi away, Lin Yutong returned to the house. Hearing that the fourth master was in the study, Lin Yutong did not bother him. He was recently busy re-programming the password symbols and improving the method of message recognition. Because he suspected that the old

Jin Chengan probably already knew about some of these things.

He himself was too busy to replace the inherent things, but for all the secret guards, relearning was also a difficult process. Many things they had been used to for half their lives, suddenly had to change, but that was not the case.

So easy. The key is that many people are still on task, and they cannot be withdrawn at any time to familiarize themselves with these new rules. Therefore, to a certain extent, one size fits all cannot be implemented. The original things still need to be used, but how?

It is a big problem to improve it and make it connect with the new regulations.

It's already February, and the weather is slowly getting warmer. Lin Yutong also has his own things to be busy with.

He had to sort out his affairs in the Zhuangzi. No matter who he was before, the manager who couldn't do his job attentively was replaced by Lin Yutong. These people were not left in the Zhuangzi, and the deed of betrayal was directly returned.

Go and do what you have to do.

"Master must treat these people like this." Man Yue curled her lips, "I wonder how they can live without the protection of the master's family."

Sanxi nodded: "That's right. The price of food outside has quadrupled. Those who don't have any money will have to wipe out all their money just in this spring famine."

Lin Yutong was listening casually at first, but after hearing these words, he was stunned, "What did you say?"

Sanxi said in confusion: "Food prices have quadrupled."

Lin Yutong's hand suddenly stopped. These ministers are all living on dry food. The price of food in the capital has risen like this, but they don't care.

While they were talking, Fourth Master came in and said, "Help me clean up. I'm going out and I might be a little late coming back tonight."

Lin Yutong waved the girls away, then went into the inner room and asked the Fourth Master to change his clothes. He must be in a hurry to go to the secret guard camp. "But it's about the price of food?"

"It's more dangerous than this." Fourth Master said while changing clothes, "I just came back from outside, and there are many more imperial guards patrolling the capital."

Royal Guards?!

The Royal Guards guard the safety of the palace, while the Imperial Guards are responsible for the defense of the entire capital.

Now that the Royal Guards are dispatched, something must have happened. The most feared thing is that this action will cause panic among people and trigger a civil uprising.

Lin Yutong packed up for Fourth Master: "You don't have to worry about your family, just be careful."

"Don't worry. When have you ever done anything that put yourself in danger?" Fourth Master said, turning around and walking away, "It's very chaotic outside, so you should stay at home. Don't go out no matter what."

After sending away the fourth master who was worried about him, Lin Yutong walked around the house a few times. What could he do?

"Here comes..." Lin Yutong shouted outside, and then Sanxi walked in quickly. Then she whispered, "Please ask Shopkeeper Shi to come here."

Seeing Lin Yutong's caution, Sanxi said, "I understand, I will be cautious when I come in."

Shi Zhongyu came very quickly, "I have wanted to come and see the girl for a long time, but there is a funeral in your house, so I can't come."
