Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 106
After thinking for a moment, Lianchun said: "Miss, you don't know something, because the second miss just came to the East Courtyard to sit for a while, and the maid was thinking about you being busy with the Broken Jade Pavilion these days, so she didn't report. "

Xi Qiu was also stunned for a moment, and she also said: "Miss, the second lady came and went in a hurry yesterday, she didn't even take a sip of tea, she just went into the back room to take a look at the young master and left."

Jiang Jinyan frowned slightly, "Oh? Did the Second Miss say anything?"

Lian Chun shook her head and said: "Second Miss only said that she came to see the young master, but later she saw Xin Xin who was beside her, and Second Miss seemed very impatient with Xin Xin, she left after a while."

Jiang Jinyan didn't understand what Jiang Jinqian meant.

She shook her head slightly and said: "That's all... If she comes again when I'm not in this courtyard in the future, you should pay close attention to it, and don't let the young master leave her side."

After all, Jiang Jinqian is also Cheng Geer's concubine sister, and I can't find any faults when I come to see him.

If he cares about every detail, it will give her power instead.

But when it's time to be cautious, you can't relax at all.

Especially for someone like Jiang Jinqian...

Lianchun and Xiqiu naturally didn't dare to be careless, they nodded in agreement.

Just as she was talking, Xueyan opened the curtain and entered the inner room in a panic.

Jiang Jinyan saw that she had an anxious expression on her face, and quickly asked, "What's the matter?"

Xueyan said anxiously: "Miss, I just went to the front yard, but I didn't expect to meet Mr. Xiao talking with an adult who came to see the master..."

Jiang Jinyan saw that she was speaking in a hurry, so something must have happened.

Her heart moved, she turned to Lianchun and Xiqiu and said, "You take the young master back to Dongci Room first."

As she spoke, she adjusted Xiao Jincheng's clothes again, and put on a thick cloak for him.

It wasn't until Xiao Jincheng was covered tightly that Lianchun hugged him.

After the two of them left the inner room with Xiao Jincheng in their arms, she frowned and asked Xue Yan: "Did something happen in the front yard?"

Xueyan bit her lip and said: "I don't know very well, but I just saw that they all looked flustered, and I heard that the adult who came said... I am afraid that the master's official position will not be guaranteed, but the adult only agrees with him. Mr. Xiao said a few words, and then hurried to the master's study, I don't think Mr. Xiao's face is very good-looking, Miss... tell me... is it... is there something serious?!"

Is the father's official position difficult to protect?
Are you still so anxious to see your father?
Father is now just a member of the household department Uiro...

What happened to the household department?

But in the household department, my second uncle will also take care of my father.

What could be wrong?It's so serious...

Jiang Jinyan hurriedly asked: "Is that lord still in the master's study at the moment?"

Xueyan shook her head.

"When I passed the study, I saw the master and the lord walking out in a panic. They must have left the house now."

Jiang Jinyan thought for a moment and was still worried.

Since that person talked to Xiao Yizhi, then Xiao Yizhi must know about it.

She said anxiously: "In that case, go and invite Mr. Xiao to Wutong Garden, I have something to ask."

Xueyan nodded, but then patted her forehead anxiously, "Oh! Why am I so stupid! Why didn't you just invite Mr. Xiao directly!"

As she spoke, she opened the door curtain and trotted out of Wutong Garden.

I'm afraid this matter is not trivial.

In my own eyes, the lady must have an idea!
But at this moment, Jiang Jinyan was standing by the window, staring at the still green holly tree outside, frowning slightly.

She has long been unable to comprehend the many changes in this life.

Could it be that in this life, because his father became an official in advance, he caused disaster?
But I also know my father. Although my father is not very smart and smooth, he still has a sense of propriety.

Could it be because of Zhongyong Hou's outer room a while ago?
Thinking about it, she shook her head affirmatively.

She is still at ease with Zhou Chengrui's methods.

Since Zhou Chengrui promised himself that this matter can be suppressed, there must be no future troubles.

What's more, Jiang Jincai also pushed it out. There is absolutely no reason for this loyal and brave Marquis to fight against the powerless and powerless Jing'an Marquis Mansion!

It must not be this matter...

What else could the father have caused?
She sighed at the air accumulated after winter outside the window...

At this time, Xue Yan had just arrived at the courtyard gate of Zhiyuan Pavilion when she ran into Xiao Yizhi who was walking out.

She immediately stopped him.

"Our lady invites you to Wutong Garden! Where are you going?"

She saw Xiao Yizhi's expression was in a hurry, and he was still holding a bundle in his hand.

Could it be that seeing an accident in the Hou's mansion, the man surnamed Xiao is afraid of being involved... so he wants to leave?

Xueyan's heart sank, and she snorted and said, "Surnamed Xiao, could it be that you are about to leave after seeing something happen in the Jing'an Hou Mansion?"

Fortunately, I saw that he was able to do things well for the lady... and I gave him so many snacks!What a fool!
Xiao Yizhi saw that she was making trouble for no reason again, and said helplessly: "You know all about it? I'm going out for a walk! I have to ask the matter clearly..."

Seeing that he didn't seem to be making up nonsense, Xueyan blushed slightly, and pointed to the bundle he was carrying, "Don't lie to me... what is this?"

Xiao Yizhi laughed back angrily, "If I run away, I should run away with the money, look..."

He opened the bag, which contained some high-quality antique porcelain.

Xue Yan blushed and let go, still blocking his way: "That won't work either! No matter where you are going, you have to go with me to see my sister first!"

Just as Xiao Yizhi was about to push her away, he remembered that he had heard Jiang Guanshi mention something.

The eldest lady and Zhen Guohou have friendship!

In a flash, he thought of what Wan Chengji, the accountant doctor, mentioned just now, that this matter might have something to do with the Suzaku Camp...

Suzaku Camp?That is the territory of Zhen Guohou Xu Junyan!
Only then did he stop what he was doing, staring at Xue Yan and said anxiously: "Take me to see the eldest lady!"

Xue Yan originally thought that he was still ignoring her, but who knew that in an instant he was actually walking a few minutes faster than herself.

Who is this!

She was stunned for a moment, then trotted after him, "Hey! The surname is Xiao! Wait for me..."

At this time, Jiang Jinyan was already sitting in the flower hall of the West Room, which was always used to entertain guests.

After Xiao Yizhi strode quickly into the flower hall, he cupped his hands and saluted.

"Miss, this..."

Before the words finished, Xue Yan trotted in after her.

She clutched her chest and panted, "Why are you so impolite, just barging in like this?!"

Jiang Jinyan knew that Xiao Yizhi was not a reckless person, so she shook her head at Xueyan.

"It's okay, Xueyan, go make a pot of tea."

Only then did Xiao Yizhi realize that he was in a collision.

He bowed his head and said: "It's Xiao who is reckless, and I still hope that Miss Haihan."

Xueyan snorted, "It's not too bad."

After speaking, he turned and went to make tea.

Jiang Jinyan shook his head, "Mr. Xiao, you don't have to be polite to me. People from the household department came to the front yard? Xue Yan told me all about it. I don't know if Mr. Xiao knows what happened?"

Xiao Yizhi hesitated for a moment and said: "This is not about the inner house..."

In my opinion, it is really against my principles to discuss matters in the front yard or even the court with the women in the back house.

I was really confused just now, how could I come to Wutong Garden directly!
Seeing his expression, Jiang Jinyan could guess what he was worried about.

She smiled helplessly, "Mr. Xiao should also know the situation of our Jing'an Hou Mansion. If I don't intervene in this matter, I'm afraid I can't rest assured. You should tell me, sir, even if it's something I can't solve. ...you should also be prepared."

Seeing that she was calm and composed, Xiao Yizhi thought how could he treat Miss Jiang as an ordinary boudoir lady?
She was right, the only thing Jing'anhou's mansion could do was Jing'anhou Jiang Shiheng.

But I really can't see that Lord Jing'an Hou Jiang is a capable person.

Forget it, it's better to talk about it like Jiang Jinyan.

Then he opened his mouth and said: "I'm afraid Miss Jiang doesn't know that the person who came today is Mr. Wan from the Ministry of Households. He told me about it because he had friendship with me in the early years. I heard that this time... from the Ministry of Households. The master lost a batch of food under his hands."

Jiang Jinyan still felt that the loss of a batch of food would not make the dignified Xiao Yizhi so flustered, right?

Seeing that she was unmoved, Xiao Yizhi said again: "Miss doesn't know, this time the Holy Majesty is going to transfer a batch of rations from the household department to the army!"

Only then did Jiang Jinyan turn pale with shock, she naturally understood this time!
What my father lost was the food and grass that was going to be transferred to the army!
Originally, if there was a mistake in the household department's grain storage, it would not be a big deal, just transfer some from other places, and most states and counties would have surplus grain accumulated in previous years.

But the person who needs to be transferred is going to the army, that is, he has a military order, what is a military order, and if it is overdue, it is a serious crime!
Jiang Jinyan asked anxiously: "Mr. Xiao, do you know the specifics? Where is the food and grass going? How many days is the deadline?"

Xiao Yizhi thought that he just heard the name Suzaku Daying, and this matter may not be related to Zhen Guohou.

At this time, it is not appropriate to say that it is from chaos.

He frowned and shook his head, "I was thinking of going out first to inquire about this matter...but I was stopped by Xue Yan when I found out about Zhiyuan Pavilion, I thought that since the eldest lady heard about this matter, she must be impatient Yes, let’s come to Wutong Garden first.”

At this moment, Xueyan was walking to the entrance of the flower hall with the tray in her hand, when she heard Xiao Yizhi's words.

She pursed her lips and said, "Miss, I'm just impatient..."

Jiang Jinyan thought of Xiao Yizhi's hesitation after entering the flower hall. I am afraid that he is not completely ignorant, he must have not figured it out yet.

She stood up and saluted, "Then I would like to thank Mr. Xiao for working so hard on this matter."

Xiao Yizhi hurriedly returned a salute, "Although the young lady asked Xiao to be the accountant, she treats Xiao with respect like a staff member, and Xiao will naturally try her best."

Jiang Jinyan was stunned for a moment before he understood what he meant.

Sure enough, smart people can't be perfunctory.

I gave him the Zhiyuan Pavilion with the best location in the front yard, and treated him like a guest every time I used it...

At this time, Jiang Shihong was pacing back and forth in the household department yamen with a pale face.

As soon as he saw Jiang Shiheng, he quickly stepped forward, "Brother! What's going on?!"
