Emperor Kangxi sent me to marry

Faced with Suo'etu's menacing encirclement and suppression, Gao Shiqi was not afraid, he knew that this person was ordinary.

However, it is necessary to be wary of the joining of the four princesses.

During the time between leaving Xu's mansion and returning home, he went to Wufanglou and asked for the most expensive private room.

The shopkeeper knew that Gao Shiqi was not a good person, so he went to make tea himself.

"Scholar Gao seems to be taking care of the small shop business for the first time."

"If you want to call it a small shop here, there are no big teahouses in the capital. Why, do the big shopkeepers come out to say hello to all the guests who come to the door for the first time?"

"Look who the customer is."

Gao Shiqi took a sip of Mingqiangreen's hair tip and thought it was better than Xu's, but it's a pity that the water was almost meaningless.

"Borrow a pen and paper, I want to write a letter."

The shopkeeper asked someone to fetch the top four treasures of the study, and Gao Shiqi brushed it off, then walked away, and ordered the tea money to be recorded.

"Ruixiangfang borrows money, and Wufanglou takes money. The fourth princess's abacus is ringing. To cultivate one's morals and family, Gao is very clear about the inner house. Whether the money needs to be repaid, the shopkeeper should ask the owner."

Gao Shiqi's posture didn't scare the shopkeeper, but he still sent a capable man to follow the route of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and reported the letter and the process to Yikun Palace in detail.

When Haifeng received Gao Shiqi's letter, he was writing a letter to Guo Xiu.Hearing Gao Shiqi's arrogance, her hand that was opening the letter stopped, and then finished writing according to the original intention, and handed it over to others.

Shu Tai helped grind the ink, seeing his master being so stubborn, he was very happy.

"It's just like this. I don't know what this man is relying on. The family owes money, and he hasn't finished his last meal. He's not in a hurry, so he just came to scare us."

At this time, Hai Feng had roughly read Gao Shiqi's letter and handed it to A Xiang for safekeeping.

"Don't underestimate him. I have been with Khan Ama for more than ten years, and I always have some real skills. I ignored him because I felt that the time had not come. He came to the door suddenly and wrote such a threatening letter. Forcing me to quit, it makes people not afraid. If he really has the ability to hurt me, he would have done it quietly, and he would never startle the snake. But why did he seal 2000 taels into Suo'etu's house? Just this little money, Can't keep safe. With Gao Shiqi's shrewdness, it won't be counted."

There is also ink, Haifeng wrote down the names of the players in the game, and carefully deduced it again.

Wang Hongxu

Xu Qianxue

Gao Shiqi

Soetto

Wang Hongxu loves to make small reports to Kangxi, and most of the secrets he has written over the years are not painful, but in fact Kangxi doesn't like him much anymore.Wang Hongxu dared to accept 500 taels of bribes from the magistrate of Jiading, and his confidence was on Xu Qianxue.It's a pity that after entering Beijing, Xu Qianxue didn't think much of the money, nor Wang Hongxu, so he dismissed him with three cups of tea.Wang Hongxu had no choice but to turn to Gao Shiqi, the two sides were bargaining, which was found out by Ruixiangfang.

However, Gao Shiqi couldn't defeat Gao Shiqi in this matter.Based on Haifeng's understanding of Kangxi, he will make big things into small things, and Gao Shiqi's bribery before was bigger than this, Kangxi may not be unaware.When the Pearl Party was liquidated, most of the money that Jin Fu fed in was recovered.Kangxi also deliberately instructed the Ministry of Punishment in private to show mercy to Gao Shiqi's subordinates, and there is no need to file a case for prosecution.This person's status in Kangxi's mind cannot be shaken by a mere 500 taels.

Haifeng asked Guo Xiu to participate. It was Gao Shiqizhi who worked for the party for personal gain, entangled with Mingzhu's old department, and tried to reverse the case for Mingzhu.

This charge may be barely effective.

Although Guo Xiu is not her person, but he is a good speaker, and very smart, worthy of training, Hai Feng does not want Guo Xiu to be cannon fodder.

Suo'etu directly left the errand to Guo Xiu, but didn't give him any help. Haifeng speculated that he wanted Guo Xiu to hit a snag first, let Kangxi make an exception first, and then Suo'etu asked his cronies to follow closely In the end, impeachment, Kangxi is not good at protecting it all the time, it will always pay off.It not only belittles Hanchen's image around the prince, but also can really take care of Gao Shiqi, killing two birds with one stone.

The Pearl Party hates Gao Shiqi's defection, no one will come down to explain to him, if it's not possible, Haifeng still has Qian Yu that was sent to Shandong to use.

The rest depends on what Kangxi wants.

"Did the Gao family buy the girl released outside the city?"

Ah Xiang poured warm water in and washed Hai Feng's hands, she answered while she was talking, her hands were not idle.

"No, my second sister puts all kinds of things at various prices. That mother Qian reads every one of them. She hesitates and refuses to sell. Ordinarily, Mrs. Gao still has 200 taels in her hand? Buy a little girl, Why are you still dawdling?"

Hai Feng vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell why.

"Tell me again, what did the people from Xu Qian Academy ask last night?"

"The eldest sister said that it was the wife of the housekeeper of Xu's house who came here. They often come to order embroidery, and they have never borrowed usury. For some reason, they suddenly need to borrow 5000 taels. The princess knows that now there is a famine, and no one's life is easy. In the past few days, the principal has almost been put in, and it is not enough for the time being. The eldest sister did not respond."

Why did Xu Qianxue suddenly borrow money?He is not short of money at all.Last month, a batch of fresh silk was taken from Ruixiangfang and paid in cash.

Thinking about it carefully, Gao Shiqi's action of going to Xu's mansion is also quite strange.

At first, she thought that Gao Shiqi was afraid that Xu Qianxue would refuse him to help Wang Hongxu, so she came to the door to say hello. Now that she thought about it, it was just a matter of a note. Gao Shiqi went in person and made a big fuss.

"Ah Xiang, you go to find out about Ruixiangfang again. Tell Fucha to go to the imperial concubine to ask for a warrant, saying that I want to give you a decent face, and go home quietly. The empress will not care about it. After seeing your eldest sister, send Don’t miss any details about what happened last night, write it all down, and then report it to me. Shu Tai asked Zhang Shun to go to Qianqing Palace to look for Liang Jiugong. Ask Gao Shiqi if he said anything in front of Khan Ama yesterday.”

The two maids agreed to go, Hai Feng calmed down and dealt with the routine palace affairs: the eldest princess is tentatively scheduled to get married in April next year, and the nuns and maids who will follow her must be settled now; Ladies and gentlemen, she is in charge of all the things used in the winter, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has reported the list; the empress dowager's new residence, the Ningshou Palace, is almost finished, and the decorations inside have been drawn by the building office. Help out with ideas, how to please the Queen Mother.

Hai Feng dealt with it patiently, and when he looked up, the lunch was ready.

The dishes seemed to be richer than usual, just as she was about to ask, Nanny Sai Lun directly picked up a dish of drunken shrimp and put it on the plate.

"Just now I went to ask for a warrant, and the imperial concubine personally ordered the food to be added. The empress said that looking at the account book, the fourth princess's expenses are the least here, which is outrageous. The servant also feels that the princess is too frugal. I have to calculate my share, and I have to even it out." Give it to Seventh Brother, Thirteenth Brother, Liu Gege, and Qi Gege. It’s cheaper for others to save so much. The second princess’s place is more than twice as much as ours. The imperial concubine called her over several times, no. Expensive?"

"Second elder sister was used to living a good life when she was young. It is difficult to change from extravagance to frugality. The victims outside eat grass roots and bark, sell their sons and daughters, and I eat so well that I feel uneasy. I will share some of these delicious dishes with Ah. brother office."

Aunt Sai Lun had no choice but to ask someone to come in to share the food. She was busy, but Zhang Shun came back from Qianqing Palace, but returned empty-handed.

"Master, yesterday the emperor asked Gao Shiqi to talk about the Book of Changes, and then he talked about Ming history for a while. Director Liang couldn't understand, but he remembered that the emperor looked ugly. After that, the emperor asked all the servants to go out, only Gao Shiqi was alone. , chatting in the study."

Hai Feng lost his appetite instantly and put down his chopsticks.

This Gao Shiqi is quite difficult to deal with.
