Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 7154 Scam
"Concubine Yi, didn't she die of illness?" Luo Xingchen frowned.

Concubine Yi's death back then did not cause much disturbance. Although Concubine Yi's family connections were all first-class, she suffered the loss of having no children after all.

In addition, the emperor didn't have much affection for her at that time.

After the imperial doctors came to the conclusion of death, they quickly buried him.

It didn't take long, except for a few people, no one remembered that there was a Concubine Yi.

"It's true that Concubine Yi's health is not very good, but she died of illness too young, only in her twenties. Her family was born after the founding of Ningguo, and she kept a low profile in the capital. After knowing this, she didn't say anything at that time."

Bi Snake said lightly.

"It's not good to ask the emperor about this matter." Luo Xingchen said, "Go and check first."

"Sister Bi Snake, do you know about the Dou family?" Luo Xingchen changed the subject.

"I haven't been in the capital for long, and I've been busy with the affairs of the Feng family recently. I don't know much about other families in the capital." Bi Snake shook his head and said.

This is also normal. There are at least hundreds of elegant families in the capital, and some of them are intertwined, even extending to the former and southern dynasties.

You know, the capital of Daqi is the capital of the Southern Dynasties, and it has a history of hundreds of years here.

After the world was in chaos and the Southern Dynasties fell apart, the capital has not suffered too much war, and many ancient families have survived.

"Your housekeeper should know, why are you looking far away." Bi Snake raised her lips.

Luo Xingchen suddenly felt that he had entered into a misunderstanding. If he knew about some things in the capital, Wang Dong was definitely an inquisitor.

"Okay, Sister Bi Snake, you go back and have a good rest. If you need anything, let the maid in the backyard prepare it." Luo Xingchen said.

"Okay, I'll call Wang Dong for you."

Bi Snake stepped out of the door.

After a while, Wang Dong trotted over, with beads of sweat on his forehead again, gasping for breath.

"Steward Wang, it seems that you have been training with the boys in the backyard for a while. Your current health is not very good." Luo Xingchen said.

Wang Dong smiled wryly and shook his head: "Young master, please spare me. If you let me train with those boys, you might as well just kill me."

"Then what should we do?" Luo Xingchen said, "Let Miss Gongsun make a plan for you, and let her supervise it every day, this is not allowed."

"Okay, young master, then I'll try." Wang Dong could only nod his head.

Now that Luo Xingchen had given the order, Wang Dong had no choice but to obey. However, he already had an idea in his heart. He wanted to find an opportunity to chat with Gongsun Baba. This plan must not be too difficult to make. His body Can't bear it.

He was terrified. Ever since he saw the intensity of those boys' training, he secretly lamented... It's impossible for a human to bear it, but he couldn't do it anyway.

"You can tell Miss Gongsun about this matter later, I'm looking for you for something else."

Luo Xingchen pursed his lips and said, "I want to know more about the Dou family, do you have any news about the Dou family?"

"The Dou family? Is it the oldest family in the capital, the Dou family?" Wang Dong said.

"Could it be that there is more than one Dou family in the capital?" Luo Xingchen was puzzled.

"Of course there is more than one Dou family. As far as I know, there are at least three Dou families that are famous in the capital." Steward Wang Dong said with a smile.

"I don't care about the other Dou families, I'm asking about the biggest ancient family." Luo Xingchen asked.

"I know about the Dou family. Many people in the capital know that something interesting happened to the Dou family a while ago."

A strange smile appeared on Wang Dong's face.

"The eldest young master of the Dou family, the son of the head of the family, Dou Hui, was cheated out of money by a woman."

"Dou Hui? Isn't it Dou Jinhan?" Luo Xingchen was a little at a loss. Isn't the young master of the Dou family Dou Jinhan?Together with him, they are called the Four Great Princes by some good people.

"Dou Hui is Dou Jinhan's biological father. The head of the Dou family is Dou Jinhan's grandfather. The old man is in good health. He is now in his sixties, and he is still fierce and fierce. He is not inferior to young people. This Dou Hui can only If you have been the young master, you will not be the head of the family." Wang Dong said with a smile.

"Speaking of this Dou Hui, he is very famous in the capital, mainly for playing. This master likes to raise birds and play with antique calligraphy and paintings. The Dou family has a big family and a big business. It's nothing for him to play with these. It is inevitable."

"Although Dou Hui is not very promising, he can be regarded as a well-behaved businessman. In addition, he is not a womanizer and doesn't go to brothels. The seat of this prince is quite appropriate."

"But who would have thought that Dou Hui would fall on female sex."

Having said that, Wang Dong couldn't help laughing again.

"What's going on here?" Hearing this, Luo Xingchen also became interested.

"Dou Hui doesn't go to brothels, but he likes to go to Goulan to listen to operas. He is not good at women, but he still likes to listen to operas and listen to books. For some reason, he fell in love with a Huadan, and chatted with Huadan a few times , come and go, actually married this Huadan back as a concubine."

"A concubine, this is a trivial matter, the Dou family probably never imagined that their Dou family would fall into the hands of this concubine."

"The Dou family wanted to do business, and that concubine contacted them with a client. As a result, the business was negotiated, and the money was transferred, but the client disappeared..." Wang Dong said.

"What about the concubine? This must have something to do with the concubine." Luo Xingchen asked.

"The little concubine also disappeared. Later, Dou's family went to investigate and found that this little concubine was not the original Huadan, but a fake Huadan. The real Huadan was locked up in a cellar a long time ago, starved to death, and her body They're all mummies." Wang Dong sighed.

"This is really tragic. It seems that the other party has come prepared and has already plotted against the Dou family. In this way, it will be difficult for the Dou family not to be tricked." Luo Xingchen said.

That little concubine pretending to be Huadan must have a lot of power behind her. They set up a trap for the weakness of the Dou family and Dou Hui. With such a carefully calculated layout, it is very difficult for the Dou family not to be fooled.

"Even if this business fails, the Dou family's family business is so huge, it won't hurt the bones."

"Young master, it's not what you think. The Dou family is actually empty-handed. For so many years, they have spent a lot of money on food and expenses. They have long been unable to make ends meet. Even the money that was cheated, many of them were turned into sellers. When they were collected, some were even pawned or borrowed..."

"If you are cheated like this, the Dou family will collapse immediately. It's really a big joke." Wang Dong said.

"Live frugally, can't we overcome the difficulties?" Luo Xingchen said.

"It's easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. If they want them to live a hard life, it will be difficult for the gang leader." Wang Dong said.

"No wonder Dou Jinhan said those words." Luo Xingchen completely understood.
