famous eldest daughter

Chapter 869
The chamberlain personally brought a pen, ink, paper and inkstone to Mr. Gan. As soon as he put it down, the emperor said in a calm voice: "Please write me a few words."

Gan's heart suddenly shrank, and he turned to look at Concubine Li.

Li Fei's face suddenly turned pale without any trace of blood. Just now, she had vaguely guessed that the rice paper that fell on the ground could be one of the messages she and Mr. Gan exchanged. Thoughts floated around, but she tried her best to suppress them. .

As soon as the emperor said this, Concubine Li was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat.

Seeing Concubine Li's expression, Mrs. Gan understood in her heart, but instead she breathed out a sigh of relief, calmed her breathing, and turned to face the emperor, "Your Majesty, I am stupid, and my parents have not had any teachers since I was young, but I know each other." These words can make you blind, but you can't write."

Concubine Li was originally frightened and confused. When she heard Gan's words, she immediately remembered that every time Gan wanted to write something, it seemed that Gan's personal nanny would write it for her. She herself did not write it herself.

Not only his mother was like this, but his father, Marquis Weiyuan, was also the same. When he wanted to write something, the boy next to him would often write it, while he himself only wrote some official documents from the court and never wrote anything about family business matters. .

Thinking of this, Li Fei's heart, which was beating wildly and had lost its stability for a long time, gradually calmed down, and she secretly laughed at her poor mental quality that she had even forgotten such a thing.

With his mind set, he couldn't help but raise his eyes and look at Xiao Yu provocatively.

However, Xiao Yu curled his lips and looked directly at Concubine Li, his eyes were full of colors, and he wrote: The fun is just beginning, play slowly!
Inexplicably blessed, Concubine Li actually understood Xiao Yu's glance, and her heart twitched. But when she looked at Xiao Yu again, Xiao Yu's eyes had already fallen on the rice paper spread out in front of the emperor. He has always been careless and carefree, but he is not as ruthless as he was just now.

Gan's head held high, and after finishing speaking calmly, the emperor couldn't help frowning slightly.

He only knew that half of the business of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion was taken care of by Gan, but to his surprise, Gan couldn't write.

Gan couldn't write, so this rice paper pointed the finger at Gan and Li Fei... Looking at the content on the paper, the emperor's livid face became even more ugly.

Regardless of whether someone framed Concubine Li and the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, or whether Concubine Li was really behind the scenes, he could not tolerate any of it.

The emperor was silent when Xiao Yu suddenly spoke beside him, "This piece of paper says that because of the business in the house, I dare not offend Mr. Tao of the Ministry of Punishment...Father, what kind of business is the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion doing? Why? Is it related to the Ministry of Punishment? Aren’t business matters generally handled by the Ministry of Household Affairs? Could it be that the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion is engaged in the business of committing crimes?"

Concubine Li didn't know what the real business of Weiyuan Hou Mansion was. After hearing Xiao Yu's words, she felt that he was deliberately disturbing the audience, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, my concubine's family's business has always been aboveboard, rice paper I don’t know what is written on it, but no matter what it is, it is all a frame-up and a frame-up. Since it is a frame-up and frame-up, then nothing you say can be true!"

Mrs. Gan was frightened by Xiao Yu's words.

The four words "criminal crime" are like the gleam of a needle.

I was originally confused. The business affairs of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion and the disappearance of Yingxiu were all the work of Concubine Hui. Originally, I just thought that Xiao Yu was a dandy and it was difficult to take on a big job, so I did not take him into consideration. However, Concubine Hui was a dandy after all. With her guidance, it is not impossible to accomplish something.

Even though it was not Xiao Yu's investigation into Weiyuan Hou Mansion's Tianjin Guard business and Yingxiu's disappearance, it was very likely that he was responsible for it.

As her thoughts floated, Mrs. Gan's face couldn't help but look ugly. She bit her lips slightly and said, "It's exactly what Concubine Li said. Since someone was trying to harm her, and she couldn't write anything, your majesty still sent Xiaozhu to the Shenxing Department for torture. Come down and you’ll know everything!”

As long as Concubine Hui is quickly uncovered as the mastermind behind the scenes, Concubine Hui's subsequent arrangements may be disrupted. In this way, the business of Weiyuan Hou Mansion...

What Gan's fears most at the moment is that the business of the Marquis of Weiyuan is really caught by Concubine Hui and caused trouble.

As he was talking, a young chamberlain pushed his head in outside the imperial study room, "Your Majesty, Mr. Tao, the Minister of Punishment, wants to see you!"

Originally, he wanted Gan to write to check his handwriting, but now none of Gan could write. The emperor was hesitant, and suddenly heard Tao Ye asking for an audience, and couldn't help but frown. At this time, what was he doing... He nodded slightly and said, "Let him in!" "

After receiving the order, the little chamberlain pushed open the carved wooden door of the imperial study room and made way for Tao Ye to enter the room. Tao Ye walked quickly in a few steps and walked straight to the side of Mrs. Weiyuan Hou. After saluting and saying hello, he turned to face Gan. After taking a look at it, he replied: "I think your Majesty already knows about the disappearance of Miss Yingxiu from Weiyuan Marquis Mansion..."

As soon as his words came out, not only the emperor and Concubine Li were shocked, but even Gan's eyelids twitched, and he turned to look at Tao Ye with fear in his eyes.

sky!How did he know about Yingxiu's disappearance!

My heart was nervous, and the silk handkerchief in my hand couldn't help but be squeezed tightly.

Concubine Li said that the palace was not deep enough. Tao Ye fell silent and could not speak as fast as the emperor. Concubine Li said with panic on her face, "What did you say? Yingxiu disappeared? When did Yingxiu disappear?" As she spoke, she went to ask Gan for advice.

When Mrs. Gan nodded, Tao Ye had a surprised expression on his face, but he did not look at Concubine Li, but looked at the emperor, "Why, isn't Mrs. Weiyuan Hou telling your majesty about this matter?"

"What's going on!" The emperor glanced at Mrs. Weiyuan Hou and said to Tao Ye with a stern face.

Tao Ye frowned, with a puzzled look on his face. He turned to look at Mr. Gan, pursed his lips and turned back to the emperor, "Early this morning, when I returned home, Madam Weiyuan Hou sent someone to talk to me. Miss Yingxiu went to the country farm of Weiyuan Marquis Mansion a few days ago. She sent someone to pick her up yesterday, but the person who was sent came back early this morning and said that Miss Yingxiu was missing."

Speaking of this, Tao Ye's eyes were full of uneasiness, but his cheeks were slightly red, "Your Majesty also knows that I am facing Miss Yingxiu... Once I believed her, I immediately sent people to look for her. Because this matter is important, I dare not delay As soon as the matter was explained, I rushed to the palace and begged your majesty to send the imperial army to help search for it, just in case something happened to Yingxiu... I haven't been married for several years, it's so easy..."

Tao Ye was upright and always said what was on his mind without reservation, but when it came to this matter of love, no matter how upright he was, he couldn't say it with a red face.

After a pause in his tone and doubt in his eyes, he said: "I came in and saw Madam Weiyuanhou and Concubine Li were also there. I just thought that they, like me, were begging your Majesty to send more manpower to look for Miss Yingxiu."
