Chapter 562 Ash
"Hmph, so that's how it is!" Grandma Qu's words were filled with uncontrollable excitement. She knew that her mother-in-law only went in and out. Since Li's dowry was in her hands, it was the same as she thought. This big money was waiting there, waiting for her to get it!
As for whom she wanted to harm, she didn't care at all.
"You have to plan this matter well!" Grandma Qu was wrongly thinking about it. The little girl outside said that an old lady in the kitchen asked Sister Wang to see Sister Wang, saying that it was something that Sister Wang told me and had a reply.
"It's what the big grandma just told me." Sister Wang quickly explained that she was listening to the big grandma's question. If she found this place in private matters, it would be amazing.
"Yes." Grandma Qu was making up her mind and nodded casually.
Sister Wang went out and came back soon, and said with a mysterious smile: "Grandma, you just ordered me to see what I did. Big Grandma is wise, it is indeed another big thing!"
"What's the big deal?" Grandma Qu's attention immediately turned around when she heard the word "Master".
"After the big grandma's instructions, the maid chose the smartest woman. The woman followed the old man out of the house and said that the old man went to the second uncle's house first, and stayed at the second uncle's house for less than a quarter of an hour before coming out. When she came out, she headed straight to Maxing Street, saying that the old man bought some valuable things and went to the Jie Shangshu Mansion.
"A lot of expensive things? Where did he get the money? I borrowed it from my second uncle?" Grandma Qu didn't react slowly.
Sister Wang laughed dryly, "Grandma doesn't know that our tens of thousands of dollars of wealth in our mansion have been scattered in just a few years. Who in the clan dares to lend us money to our master and uncle? You can't borrow a tael of silver."
"Then he...he has placed the money in his second uncle?" In these tricks, Grandma Qu reacted quickly and accurately.
"But where did the old man get the money?" Sister Wang was surprised by this. Her master and uncle only know how to spend money, so how could he make money!
"He is an official, and can an official lose money?" Grandma Qu's understanding was simple and pointed. Sister Wang hesitated before echoing: "That's the same."
"I am different from others. People say that blessings are unparalleled, and I will always be blessed with two blessings!" Grandma Qu chuckled happily, "Thank you for your hard work today." Grandma Qu moved, took out the key from her waist, opened the big box placed in the corner of the kang, touched a piece of silver, weighed it, put it back, touched a small piece of small one, and handed it to Sister Wang, "I'll reward you."
Sister Wang was flattered. It was so rare for the big grandmother to reward people. Not only the big grandmother, but there was almost no such thing as rewarding people in this mansion.
…………
The fifth prince went to the Ji Mansion Wenhui incident and before the fifth prince left the Ji family, it was heard by the prince. This matter was too important. Anyone who knew it would dare not tell the prince quickly.
Gao Shu Jiang Gao's envoy got the report and immediately asked for the horse, and rushed to see the prince.
When Gao Envoy entered the hall, Zhou Zexuan and Zhou Deputy Privy Council were already there. Gao Envoy was heartbroken. Looking at Deputy Privy Council, he smiled for a moment and bowed to him and said hello.
He is not as good as Zhou Zexuan when he is with Xiaoyi. But the prince is a villain, not a gentleman, so he loves a villain who only knows how to serve Xiaoyi and is useless in big things!
When Gao Zhisi thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
"You heard that Xiao Wu was running around everywhere?" Before he could get worse, the prince asked with a little anger and impatient.
"Yes." Gao Envoy hurriedly bowed and answered, "I came here quickly because of this. I think this matter should not be underestimated."
Gao Enshi paused and glanced at Deputy Privy Councillor Zhou, "What does Deputy Privy Councillor Zhou mean?"
"I am following the advice of the Gao Envoy." Deputy Privy Councilor Zhou replied with a smile. The Gao Envoy's eyes flashed with a sarcasm. He ignored him and turned to look at the prince and continued, "Your Highness, the fifth master is the legitimate son. Empress Ning is now in charge of the harem. These two things cannot be underestimated. Moreover, the Ning family has been guarding the north of the court for generations and has outstanding military achievements. Ning Yuan entered the capital... Now it seems that Ning Yuan came to Beijing for a big event. The fifth master appeared at the Ji Mansion Wenshou today, which was not on a whim. It was a premeditated and arranged appearance. If I had expected it well, the fifth master would definitely be praised for his appearance this time. If he really took over the legitimate and wise..."
The following words, Gao Envoy did not dare to say that although the prince appointed the prince, he was not virtuous, and secondly, he was too stupid. Few people were optimistic about the position of the prince...
Thinking of this, Gao Zhisi became a little more discouraged.
"Hmph!" The prince didn't hear what he wanted to hear, and a sensation surged, "Empress Ning? He dares to have a decorum? Now that the title of the king and his ministers has been settled, he is a delusion, this is a rebellion! He is not afraid that he will give him a white silk to that day?"
Gao Zhisi swallowed. In the prince's mind, he became the prince and was no different from being the emperor. He never thought that the prince would be deposed. Even if there was, it was someone else, and he would never do so.
Gao Zhisi was worried and could not say anything. If he told him in front of the prince, he would most likely be deposed soon, like a high wall like a eldest prince, or even a glass of poisoned wine... How would the prince react? Gao Zhisi had been thinking about this matter for many times, and the more he thought about it, the less he dared to say it.
"These idiots who don't know the world! You go to Yanqing Palace and teach Xiaowu a lesson for Gu. Tell him that if you don't have Gu's permission in the future, you are not allowed to go out at will. Studying well in Yanqing Palace is the main business!" The prince sternly ordered Deputy Privy Councillor Zhou.
Gao Zhisi looked at the prince blankly, and couldn't speak for a long time.
The stunned envoy Gao came out of the prince and did not return to the yamen. He went straight back to his home. At this moment, he had no mood to handle official duties.
Gao Envoy walked into the second door with his hands behind his back, stood up, and instructed the servant, "Ask Xiaowu if he is back. If he comes back, let him come to the study."
After Gao Envoy gave the order, he lowered his head and dragged his feet into the study, fell heavily in the armchair, leaned back, and after a long time, he raised his head, slowly picked up the tea, took a sip of tastelessness, put down the cup, stood up, and walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, pacing blankly.
When Gao Ziyi came in, Gao Zisi was already a little tired of leaving. When he saw his son coming in, he sat down with the armrest of the chair while signaling Gao Ziyi, "I'm back, sit down."
