When returning to Begonia Garden, you naturally have to pass by Zhilan Garden.Qin Zheng stopped at the gate of Zhilan Garden, turned his head to look at Xie Fanghua, and saw that she had no intention of going in, so he raised his eyebrows at her, "You don't go in" Xie Fanghua shook his head, "I have to go to the study to read the account books in the afternoon, my brother is looking for you to discuss things, it must be a matter of the court, and it is useless for me to go."
You go," Qin Zheng was a little reluctant, "Which study are you in, I'll look for you when I'm done." ”"You'll be fine in the afternoon," Xie Fanghua looked at him."
I don't have to have anything to do, seize the opportunity to accompany you."
Qin Zheng said."
My own little study."
Xie Fanghua dropped a sentence and walked towards Begonia Garden.Qin Zheng entered Zhilan Garden.Xie Mohan was waiting for Qin Zheng in the painting hall, and when he saw that he was coming, he looked at him and asked him to sit down.Xie Fanghua walked all the way back to Zhilan Garden, and didn't care about what Xie Mohan and Qin Zheng wanted to discuss, so he went straight to the study.When Xie Fanghua was resting at noon, Pinzhu and the others also followed her to rest for a long time, and when they saw her come back and entered the study, they also followed her into the study.and buried them in the mountains and seas of the ledger.Although several people are assigned to each of them to take care of their own affairs, Xie Fanghua is different from several people, in order to manage the general affairs, he must find out all the situation and grasp it in his own hands, so naturally every account book cannot be expected to be read by them, but he has to take advantage of the opportunity of the past few days to read them all.Fortunately, Xie Fanghua has an unforgettable memory, and he has ten lines at a glance, so he can see it very quickly.The first thing she chose was the official businessmen and imperial businessmen involved in the imperial court.Mines, salt transportation, granaries, weapons, clothing, food, housing, transportation, etc., all the things that the country and the people's livelihood depend on for survival, there is nothing that the Xie family does not interfere with, and there is no place that the Xie family has not penetrated.Xie Fanghua sighed while watching, the more he watched, the more he went deeper into the general affairs, and the more he realized why the royal family was afraid of the Xie family.After the founding of the Southern Qin Dynasty, why did he ask Xie to assist, and in a short period of time, the national system and national fortunes were restored.She only knew that if there was no Xie Clan, there would be no strong soldiers in the rich country of Southern Qin today.However, it is only a superficial knowledge, but now it is completely understood, and the inextricable connection between the agriculture and industry is inextricably linked.If it is said that the Qin family has grasped the country, and the people are shouting long live and calling the Qin family the emperor, then the Xie family is the one who grabbed the Qin family's throat.It's a veritable underground kingdom.Even if there is only one old marquis, a prince, and a young lady in the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, even if there are only these three people, it is the meridians of the world in Southern Qin that they are holding up.When my grandfather retired from the court, my brother didn't take the opportunity to take over from the court, and he kept a low profile, which also had his own reasons.The Xie clan is indeed too powerful, and if he doesn't accept it, it will be difficult to ensure that talented people take the opportunity to seize the country with the help of the family's strength.Although the loyalty of the Marquis of Zhongyong can be learned, the grandfather and elder brother have no intentions, but the hearts of the side branches are not necessarily the same.But the grandfather retreated again and again, the elder brother struggled to support, but the emperor pressed step by step, Xie's rice grain is a good example, if there was no Xie Yunlan, the emperor would have swallowed all of Xie's rice grain.The emperor will only feel that the Xie family is not a monolith, since he can swallow the Xie family's rice grain, he can also swallow the entire Xie family, but he doesn't know that it was the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion who had the intention to prune the branches, so the emperor became more and more unscrupulous.I will not be grateful to the Marquis of Zhongyong Mansion for retreating from the world, but will only let the emperor see the benefits of getting rid of the Marquis of Zhongyong and the Xie family, and he can't wait to get rid of it.If the Xie clan blindly retreats, then he will follow the old path of his previous life.The door was overturned, and the bones were mountainous.In the previous life, grandpa and brother must not have expected to retreat to the end, it would be like that, if they expected, they would definitely not retreat.In this life, under her influence, my grandfather changed his mind, and my brother entered the court, she had no intention of rebelling, but she would not sit still.Until the evening, Qin Zheng did not appear in the study.After dark, Xie Fanghua was also tired, and she read a quarter of the account book in one day, which was a miracle.She went out of the study, and Pinzhu and the others also had their own harvests and walked out.Haitang Garden was very quiet, and after leaving the study, Xie Fanghua instructed the waiter, "Go and see if Qin Zheng is still in the mansion, inquire and ask him what he is doing." ”The waiter secretly thought that Miss also knew that she cared about the second son of Zheng, which was a good thing, and immediately responded.After Xie Fanghua returned to the room, she lay on the recliner and closed her eyes to rest.After a while, the waiter came back and whispered, "The second prince of Zheng stayed in Haitang Garden for half an hour, and when the next ring, he was called back to the palace by the person sent by the princess. ”Xie Fanghua remembered that she had promised Li Muqing to go to see Yan Chen, she waved her hand, "No need to inquire, I know where he went." ”The waiter nodded.Xie Fanghua asked again, "What about my brother?"
"The prince went to look for Yunlan Gongzi outside the city after the second son of Zheng left, and he hasn't come back yet." ”The waiter said, "When I asked the second son of Zheng, I knew that the young lady might also ask the prince, so I inquired by the way. ”Xie Fanghua was very satisfied with the waiter, "Do you know what my brother is going to do with Brother Yunlan?"
”The waiter shook his head."
Let's set the meal, you are also tired, and you all rest early after the meal."
Xie Fanghua waved his hand.The waiter retreated.It didn't take long for the waiter to bring the meal, Xie Fanghua finished dinner, and when she saw that the sky was completely dark, she turned off the lights and went to bed.Today is really a bit tiring, and I need to digest what I have seen in my head.She lay on the bed without sleeping, smoothing out what she had seen and deepening her memory.An hour later, she felt that it was almost time, and she fell asleep.In the middle of the night, she heard movement outside, and after a while, the door was pushed open, and footsteps came softly towards her.She opened her eyes in a daze, looked at the familiar figure through the curtain, and muttered helplessly, "Qin Zheng, you don't go back to the house to sleep in the middle of the night, why are you bothering me again" Qin Zheng came closer, seemed to have a smoky smell of wine, stretched out his hand to pick up the curtain, stopped, stood in front of the bed and looked at her, his voice was low and soft, "Without you by my side, I can't sleep when I go back to the house, I don't come to disturb you, who to disturb" "You have drunk" Xie Fanghua sat up and looked at his appearance, although the light in the room was dim, But she could still vaguely tell that he had not only drunk, but also seemed to have drunk a lot.Qin Zheng let out an "um" and began to take off his coat.Xie Fanghua frowned and reached out to stop him, "You want to sleep here" Qin Zheng said "um" again."
No," Xie Fanghua said."
Why not" Qin Zheng paused and looked up at him, in the dark night, his eyes were faint."
You're drinking" Xie Fanghua knows that many people will do something uncontrollably after drinking because of drinking.Qin Zheng looked at her expression, and guessed what she was thinking, suddenly smiled, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, aphrodisiac can't help me, I can control myself not to go crazy, just a few glasses of wine, but I can't help me." ”Xie Fanghua listened, saw that he was stubborn, and slowly put down his hand.Qin Zheng threw away his coat, kicked his boots, and went to bed.Xie Fanghua could only move inside.Qin Zheng stretched out his hand to hug her, and sighed lightly with satisfaction, "I have always felt bitter before, but now I feel that suffering is nothing, as long as you get what you want, no matter how bitter it is, it is worth it, it is much better than the person who thinks about it in your heart, but can't get it, and can only think about it in your heart." ”Xie Fanghua was stunned, savoring the meaning of this sentence.Qin Zheng hugged her waist and stopped talking, and within a moment, the sound of even breathing came out, and she fell asleep.Xie Fanghua remembered that he was taking Li Muqing to meet Yanchen today, could it be that the three of them were drinking, and now he has a sigh of emotion, who does it mean She didn't want to think about it much, but she couldn't control it, and she was a little sleepy by him.She wanted to turn over, but Qin Zheng felt that she was moving, so he hugged her tightly, and she could only give up and stop moving.The people around him were unconscious and slept soundly.It wasn't until late at night that Xie Fanghua threw out his troubled thoughts and fell asleep.On the second day, when she woke up, there was no shadow of Qin Zheng around her, she lifted the curtain and looked at the sky outside, the sun was already very high.She rubbed her head, although she slept late last night, but because she woke up late today, her head didn't hurt, and she was still a little refreshed, but according to her sensitive temperament before, as long as there was movement around her, she could wake up immediately, but now it is really getting more and more regressive, when Qin Zheng left, she didn't know.About she was in front of him, was relieved.She got up and got out of bed and pushed the door open.The waiter immediately came over, "Miss, are you awake?"
"Did you know that people came last night, but you knew when people left" Xie Fanghua had already practiced in front of the personal maid anyway, and asked in a low voice.The waiter pursed his lips and smiled, "When the second son came last night, it was in the middle of the night, and he left at dawn today, and when he left, he also told us, let's stop arguing Miss, saying that you slept deeply, and I am afraid that you will not wake up until later." ”Xie Fanghua nodded.The waiter said again, "The second son asked you if you were tired yesterday and asked the slave to tell you that you have some things to slow down, and it is not something that can be done in a moment, and he is tired of you, and he feels distressed." ”The corners of Xie Fanghua's mouth twitched, Qin Zheng dared to let people say that he was really thicker than her, she couldn't help but put her face away, "What about my brother?"
"The prince came back very late yesterday, and he sent a messenger to you this morning, saying that he had entered the palace." ”The waiter said in a low voice, "I'll come back to you when I come back from the palace." ”Xie Fanghua nodded.Seeing that she didn't ask anything more, the waiter ordered breakfast to be prepared.After Xie Fanghua washed up, after breakfast, he went to the study again.Xie Mohan didn't come back at noon, and after Xie Fanghua had lunch, he continued to go to the study to read the account books.In the evening, the waiter whispered, "Miss, the prince is back, he has just entered the mansion, and it is estimated that he will go to Rongfutang first." ”Xie Fanghua put down the account book when he heard this, came out of the study, thought about it, and also went out of Begonia Garden and went to Rongfu Hall.When she arrived at Rongfu Hall, she happened to meet Xie Mohan at the door.Xie Mohan seemed to be a little tired, when he saw Xie Fanghua, he raised his eyes and saw that Xie Fanghua's eyebrows were also a little tired, and he immediately smiled, "Sister, those things are not in a hurry, you don't need to be too anxious to read them." ”"The sooner you get acquainted, the sooner you can take over the burden on my brother.Now that you are planning to enter the court, you are still responsible for things, and your physical illness has not been cured yet, and you are even more tired. ”Xie Fanghua shook his head.Xie Mohan's face was warm, "Originally, I wanted to see my grandfather and then go to you to talk about the past two days, since you are here, let's go into the house and say" Xie Fanghua nodded.The two brothers and sisters entered Rongfu Hall together.The old marquis has probably calculated that the two of them will have dinner together, and Aunt Fu has already set up the dishes and chopsticks.Zhongyong Hou glanced at the two brothers and sisters who came in, raised his eyelids, waved his hand and said, "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it" Xie Mohan rubbed his eyebrows and sat at the table with Xie Fanghua."
Today is the time of the seventh day.Xie's rice grain, Xie's salt warehouse, and those big merchants' families have all prepared to donate silver for the construction of the Linfen Bridge.The emperor specially summoned him. ”Xie Mohan said slowly.Xie Fanghua remembered this, looked at Xie Mohan, and waited for him to follow."
Neither Xie's rice grain nor Xie's salt warehouse have ever been to anyone again.And I, one person, represents them. ”Xie Mohan said again.Xie Fanghua raised his eyebrows, Xie Shi's salt warehouse is now Xie Yunji is missing, not there, naturally there is no way to enter the palace, why didn't Xie Yunlan enter the palace" To be exact, it represents the entire Xie family. ”Xie Mohan added.Xie Fanghua narrowed his eyes, and suddenly realized, "Yesterday, you not only went to find Brother Yunlan, but also went to find the Xie family's rice grain, but you also found the Xie clan's patriarch, or rather, at present, the leading figures of the several side branches who grasp the economic lifeline of the Xie family have found what agreement has been reached?"
”Xie Mohan nodded with a smile, "I informed a few uncles and brothers, I am going to enter the court, and the affairs of the mansion will be taken over by you in the future."
Since I want to enter the court, I must have a statement, and all the branches of the Xie family are now together, standing behind me, which is a statement. ”"They didn't say anything about me taking over the affairs of the house," Xie Fanghua asked."
The patriarch has some whispers, after all, you are a woman, but the uncle and Yunlan of the Xie clan's salt warehouse expressed their strong support for you.He didn't say anything more.After all, the ancestors did not have a family motto that did not allow their daughters to take over the chores.Although you are a daughter's family, what is more important is the concubine of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion. ”Xie Mo said.Xie Fanghua nodded, "The emperor must have been shocked enough to choke this move, which can be said to have caught him off guard and caught him off guard."
What he feared most was the Xie family working together. ”Xie Mohan nodded, "So, it is said that today the emperor smashed the imperial study after we left" Xie Fanghua suddenly smiled, you can imagine the emperor's thunderous anger.Xie Mohan glanced at her, hesitated, and said slowly, "The emperor doesn't know whether he is angry or intends to trouble Qin Zheng, after he smashed the study, he transferred out a hundred hidden guards and set up a dragon gate array, saying that if Qin Zheng can break the formation, he will allow him to go to the Xishan camp." ”After a pause, seeing Xie Fanghua smile, he sighed, "Although he broke the formation, he was injured, and the injury was very serious":
