After sending Feng Ziying away, Jiao Bian began to feel worried.

He originally just wanted to confirm whether King Zhongshun suddenly summoned Sun Shaozu to the capital to see if he had fallen into his own conspiracy and had the idea of ​​using force.

Unexpectedly, he unexpectedly obtained evidence that King Zhongshun plotted against King Nanan.

At first glance this seemed like an unexpected surprise, but in fact it ruined his original plan.

Now, if he goes to court, he will most likely be able to overthrow King Zhongshun, but what Jiao Shun wants is not to overthrow King Zhongshun, but to resolve his unfavorable situation in the court once and for all.

In the final analysis, it was not King Zhongshun who was truly hostile to him, but the civil servant group headed by the cabinet.

Now that the imperial power is weak, the prime minister's power must be strong. If he wants to compete with someone, he must make extraordinary achievements and properly show his ability to turn the tables. Otherwise, he will just use tricks to defeat a loyal and submissive king.

There is simply no way to reverse the decline.

But if you don't play it...

Although Jiao Shun asked Feng Ziying to keep it a secret, how could Feng Ziying hide such a big thing from others, but also from her own father? What's more, even if Feng Ziying could really keep it secret and didn't even tell Feng Tang, Jiao Shun might not dare to believe it.

So the question is, will Feng Tang report this matter if he learns about it?

When you submit the report, will you mention yourself?

What would be the reaction if the Queen and Concubine Wu knew that they had a handle on King Zhongshun but kept it secret and did not report it?

Alas~

It's really hard to keep up with the changes in plans.

Jiao Shun was a little irritated and put the official documents in one place, preparing to return home in advance so that he could carefully consider what to do.

Unexpectedly, before I could even leave the Department of General Affairs, someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to my door, saying that the accounts of the car factory for the second half of last year had finally come out.

In fact, this account should have been prepared a long time ago, but because the Emperor suddenly passed away years ago, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was also very busy, so it was postponed until now.

Jiao Shun flipped through it casually and found that the data was much better than he expected. The main reason was that several provinces around Zhili had placed large orders years ago, and the inner government's transactions had always been about money first, then goods, so

That makes it look particularly bright.

Of course, this is also related to the publicity strategy designated by Jiao Shun - the saying "every time the two wheels turn, even the county magistrate will not change them", is said to have spread to Guangdong and Guangxi.

Anyway, no matter what, I can finally get some money back.

Thinking that Rongguo Mansion was waiting for the rice to be cooked, Jiao Shun simply decided to go to Rongguo Mansion first, which could be regarded as a preparation for occupying the magpie's nest.

…………

Grand View Garden, Qiu Shuang Zhai.

Ying'er was stretching her neck to watch Baochai and Tanchun playing chess when she suddenly heard the door curtain rustling. She turned to look and saw Xiren coming in with a hot water kettle and making another pot of tea with the help of the waiter.

Seeing Xiren retreating silently after making tea, Ying'er couldn't help but poked Shishu's waist and motioned for her to talk to her outside.

"What's wrong?"

The secretary followed him outside reluctantly. Although it was a question, it was clear from her face that she had already guessed what Ying'er wanted to ask her.

After all, since Xiren transferred from Yihongyuan to Qiu Shuangzhai two days ago, many people have come to find out what's going on.

As expected, Ying'er rushed to the courtyard and asked, "What's going on with Xiren? Why did he suddenly come to your courtyard?"

After a pause, he added: "Is it temporary, or do you want to be here forever?"

"Ask her yourself."

The waiter said flatly: "Don't you two have the best relationship?"

This was indeed the case in the past. When Ying'er wanted to make a good match, Xiren also guessed that Baochai would probably be the future mistress and wanted to make some preparations in advance. Therefore, the two hit it off and were inseparable in the Grand View Garden.

Meng Meng is not out of focus.

But now...

Ying'er said bluntly: "In the past, we had a falling out because of the second master's matter - do you want to tell me or not? If you don't tell me, I won't ask!"

"There's nothing to say about this. It's just that our girl is short of people around her and is afraid that it won't be easy to take care of the housework in the future. Xi Ren also wants to find another way out, so he just asked his wife to hire her."

When Ying'er heard this, her beautiful eyes widened.

Doesn't this mean that Xiren will also follow the dowry to the Jiao family in the future?

"But she's not..."

I was just about to say that Xiren was Baoyu's maid, but then I thought about it. Didn't Ping'er, the aunt-to-be that everyone recognized, also be transferred to the Jiao family?

But just because she figured this out, it didn't mean she could accept it calmly.

Hum~

He looked so loyal and loyal before, but he didn't hesitate to deceive himself for the sake of the second master. If anyone wants to change his face, he will lead Gao Zhi'er!

If this gives her what she wants, it will be too cheap for her!

Ying'er went back to the inner room with the waiter Shu, who was unhappy. When Tanchun went out temporarily for convenience, she couldn't help but relay these words to her girl, and encouraged Baochai to stop this.

As for how to stop...

Of course, she should talk directly to Uncle Jiao - how can she, a maid with a ruined body, be able to outshine her own girl? As long as the girl opens her mouth, her wishful thinking will naturally not change!

Xue Baochai understood the implication of Ying'er's words, but what she was thinking was not about Xi Ren. In her opinion, Xi Ren had nothing to do with her, so why bother to create complications?

But that Jiao Shun...

After she first lost her virginity to Jiao Changqing, Baochai was worried for several days, fearing that his entanglement would not reveal any traces, which would cause their reputation to be ruined and become the target of thousands of accusations.

Later, as time passed, she gradually felt relieved, but she also gradually developed a secret resentment towards Jiao Shun.

It’s nice to have no entanglements, but you can’t have no news at all, right?!

What does he think of himself and what happened that day?

That is to say, Baochai has always been able to keep his composure, but if it were the other one, he would have been able to take the initiative to question her.

At this moment, Li Wan's laughter suddenly came from the living room: "It's better this time, it's better this time! Our family can finally breathe a sigh of relief!"

With that said, she opened the curtain and came in from the outside. When she saw Baochai standing up to greet her, she couldn't help but be startled. Then she quickly said with a smile: "It turns out that my younger siblings are here too. This saves me a special trip."

Originally, the relationship between Baochai and Li Wan was not as good as that between Lin Daiyu and Li Wan, but they were still respectful to each other.

But since Mrs. Wang chose to give up Baoyu, instead train Jia Lan, and leave the housekeeping in the hands of Li Wan, the relationship between the two became a little awkward.

Of course, on the surface it's still the same as before.

Baochai also smiled and said: "Did sister-in-law meet some happy event? Before anyone arrived, the laughter came in first."

"Of course it's a great joy!"

Li Wan took advantage of the situation and sat across from her: "Jiao Changqing came just now and said that the car factory turned from a loss to a profit at the end of last year. Our family will probably be able to make a profit of nearly ten thousand taels. This can solve the urgent needs of the house."

Xue Baochai's heart changed after hearing this, and then he smiled as if nothing happened: "It is indeed a good thing. My sister-in-law laid off so many people as soon as she took office. It's time to give the following some benefits."

"yes."

Li Wan sighed: "You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are when you are not a family. These days, I have been demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall, but I haven't been able to collect the monthly salary. The reason why I laid off people is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and also to scare the subordinates, so as not to be like Feng Yatou.

End."

Baochai smiled and said nothing.

At this time, Tanchun also came back. Hearing that Jiao Shun had brought good news about the car factory, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief about the situation at home.

They were discussing this matter inside, and the maids and servants outside were talking even more fiercely.

After all, with this dividend as a base, their monthly income is finally settled - those who may be laid off are even hoping that after the financial relief, they can keep their jobs.

Among all the laughter and laughter, Ying'er was the only one who felt a little out of place.

Her monthly money comes from Baochai, and she doesn't care about the situation in the mansion. The thing that the Kuang Xue family can rely on most is wealth. The more money the Rongguo mansion is short of, the more the Xue family's weight is reflected.

So when she first heard that Rongguo Mansion had new projects, she was actually a little unhappy.

But later when she found out that the money was a dividend from the car company, Ying'er's mood turned another 180 degrees.

If others don't know, how can she know?

Although Mrs. Wang went back on her word and handed over the housekeeping encyclopedia to Li Wan, the share deed of the car factory had been handed over to her daughter in advance.

Now that the government wants to use the car factory's dividends for emergency purposes, it has to ask its own girl first if she agrees!

Thinking like this, Ying'er in turn discussed the matter more and more actively, hoping that the whole family would know that money was going to be distributed. When the time comes, it would be difficult to get off the hook, so naturally she would have to beg in front of the girl again.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside and another master and servant came, but it was Aunt Zhao who led the way.

As soon as she entered the courtyard gate, she was about to rush in. When Xiren saw this, he stopped him and said, "Auntie, wait a minute. Grandma and Grandma Bao are both inside, so we should inform you first..."

Bang~

Before she could finish speaking, she received a heavy slap on the face.

Aunt Zhao put her hands on her hips like a teapot and cursed triumphantly: "Little Hoof, how dare you take Joe from me when you get to this courtyard? You are really blind!"

The attacker was caught off guard, covering his face and being stunned for a moment, and soon his eye circles turned red.

She had only been in Qiu Shuangzhai for three or two days. Although she had known each other before, due to the invisible rejection of the servant, she had not been able to integrate into it now. Therefore, when she saw her being lectured by Aunt Zhao, she only watched from the side.
To be continued...
