Chapter 148 Even the little prince is afraid of him
Today, the emperor convened ministers in the imperial study to discuss the fight against the Japanese in the southeast. Fighting is always inseparable from military pay, so Shen Qingzhou stayed in the imperial study for half a day even if he was on duty on the first day.
Yan Song said at the meeting that every expenditure of military pay should be recorded, as if the food that had been stolen in Tongzhou a while ago was done by someone else.
Shen Bo only cared about the war situation and didn't say a word about military pay.
He has always been like this, and Shen Qingzhou didn't expect anything from him.
Guo Yi is coming back soon, and we will wait until he comes back to talk about everything.
After returning to the household department, someone in the Yasi said that He Qu was here. After letting him enter the official room, He Qu's first sentence was: "Young master, this subordinate deserves to die. I didn't take care of the second master. I asked him to follow him to Yanzi Alley earlier!"
Shen Qingzhou shot a cold eye knife instantly: "You'd better make it clear."
How could He Qu dare to hide it? Naturally, tell it in detail from beginning to end.
Shen Qingzhou frowned for a moment and said: "Tell Mr. Zhang to give him more homework. If he fails to pass the examination as a scholar at the end of the year, he will also be exempted from his monthly holidays."
Even though He Qu knew that he would have a countermeasure, when he heard the countermeasure, he still looked at him in surprise before agreeing to go down.
Where did Second Young Master Bang Chui study in the past? It’s only been a few months since I got the book. How many days are left until the end of the year? Let him be admitted as a scholar years ago? If this is not made clear, then he will not be allowed to come out of the book!
There seemed to be an image of Bang Gui beating his chest and feet in anger before his eyes...
……
Lu Jia was full of thoughts. The first night he slept in Yixia Courtyard, he woke up before dawn.
After breakfast, Changfu sent the news to Guo Lu: "Guo Lu set out for Beijing last night. Based on the distance, he will definitely be able to reach Beijing before dark."
"Where are the two orphan girls they are looking for?"
"According to the girl's instructions, after Guo Lu left, he immediately took the person away and hid him. In a few days, he will be escorted into Beijing."
"Very good." Lu Jia nodded, "Find another place to put them properly. Eat well and wear good clothes. Don't let them suffer."
Changfu takes orders. Then he said: "There is one more thing. The eldest lady asked Aunt Bai to tell her that she met a strange person when she went out."
While saying that, he also told about Shen Zhui's appearance.
"You said that young master said that He Qu was their family's bodyguard?"
Lu Jia was stunned.
"That's right. Although He Guardi later said that the man was Butler Qin's rival, the eldest lady still didn't understand why Butler Qin's rival would ask about Guard He?"
It’s not just Qiuniang who doesn’t understand!
Lu Jia doesn’t understand either!
He knew that Qin Zhou and He Qu and Tang Yu were together, and he also knew that Qin Zhou was the boss of He and Tang Yu. If the other party was really Qin Zhou's enemy, why did He Qu become his family's guard again?
"Girl," Qinghe came over after Changfu went down, "I don't know whether to say something or not."
Lu Jia looked at her.
She lowered her eyes and sighed. "When the young prince arranged for a few of us to follow Butler Qin to meet the girl, we were very respectful to Butler Qin. The young prince told us again and again that we must serve the girl well and never make mistakes."
Lu Jia paused: "You mean, you are actually singled out, and you are not really going to be released by the palace?"
"That's not entirely true." Qing He said hurriedly, "We are indeed qualified enough to be released, but it's just a little early.
"According to the instructions of the little prince, this matter should not be told to the girl. But the girl was kind enough to reunite our mother and son. Since then, the slave has recognized the girl as my master.
"This servant knows that the girl has already had suspicions about Butler Qin, but she just deliberately avoided digging into them.
"What the girl thinks is the girl's business, but since the girl has deepened her doubts, I can no longer hide it from the girl." Lu Jia took a deep breath and sat down in front of the window.
"He actually has such ability that even the little prince of Prince Ji's palace has to give him face?"
Qinghe nodded silently.
"Then it seems that the person that Aunt Bai met today is not telling lies. No wonder he pretended to be a Lu family member to deceive Zhang Qi, and he was able to deceive him so easily. He is a person with a good background. , how could I not be deceived? And when I sued Zhou Sheng, I said why it went so smoothly!”
"Girl..."
"Girl, Aunt Du is here to apologize." Zhimu opened the curtain meaningfully.
Lu Jia looked at the shadow under the door, sighed after a moment, grabbed the clothes that Jiang sent yesterday and threw them to Qing He: "Qin Zhou, please go back and ask Chang Fu to tell Brother Yi and Li Chang, if that person still appears , let them pay attention, don't let them go, at least find out their names
"Now you go iron these and hang them up. Then find some of my own clothes for me to wear at the family dinner at night."
Lu Ying was two years younger than her and shorter in stature. Jiang had these clothes sent to her, but they were suitable for her, but they couldn't be Lu Ying's clothes.
Since it is not hers and it is a ready-made garment made by the house, it can only be prepared for the fake Miss Lu who did not have time to show up.
Even the clothes are ready, so of course Jiang is also very well prepared in other aspects.
After doing so much, won’t there be traces left behind?
Of course she has plans.
As for Qin Zhou - he showed his flaws at every turn. Even if he wanted to turn a blind eye, he couldn't.
While he was talking, Aunt Du walked in and knelt down: "I made a mistake yesterday and bumped into the girl. After receiving the punishment, I had my wife give me a severe scolding after I went back. Now that I have realized my mistake, I ask the girl to forgive me."
He said and kowtowed.
Lu Jia looked at her for a long time, smiled, and asked Zhimu to help her up: "Since the master and his wife have taught her a lesson, there is no need for grandma to be like this. It is also a misunderstanding, and everyone will be polite in the future. ”
Grandma Du didn't dare to say anything, she just apologized a few more times before exiting.
Yinliu happened to be passing by. She leaned on the wall of the courtyard and took a look at it before returning: "She is still not convinced. She looks back three times every step of the way."
"I'm not sincere in the first place. It's weird to be convinced." Lu Jia looked at him: "How are you recovering from your injuries?"
"It's almost done!" Yinliu raised his arm, "If you have any instructions, girl, just tell me."
"That's just right." Lu Jia said, "Tonight, you will stay with me every step of the way."
……
Lu Jia's guess was correct. In the evening, Guo Lu arrived in the capital without stopping and went to the Jiang family.
"The matter is about to be done. Why did my aunt suddenly call her nephew back again? Also, what happened to this big girl who came back from the house? Could it be that my aunt has already found someone in advance?"
< br>
"Idiot!"
Jiang's anger that had been held in for two days was released at this moment, "It's all your fault!"
Guo Lu was confused.
Nanny Du on the other side has already helped: "Who did you find? That is the real eldest lady! My cousin let her be deceived!"
