Chapter 363 Unspeakable Hidden Things

Qi Wu quickly ran over and told Wen Yu about this matter.

Hearing this, Wen Yu got goosebumps with excitement: "So, the person Tan met at Fanghua Temple was Master Zhou!? Ha! We finally got it right. Could it be that he is Tan's? mistress?"

Qi Wu thought her words were unpleasant and frowned slightly, "Impossible! How old was she when she met her grandfather? How could she involve so many people? She has no chance to do anything unusual after entering the Qi family."

 “Then who’s right? Grandfather is often not at home!” Wen Yu was willing to judge her with a vicious heart.

Qi Wu didn’t like Wen Yu’s words: She actually had such an idea? When a man is not at home, a woman has a reason to be presumptuous?

 Can you still go out in the future?

"Then you have never met Mr. Zhou, how could he fall in love with Mr. Tan? Mr. Tan has been raised in the Qi family for so many years, and he still has a rustic flavor in his bones!" Qi Wu wanted to say something ugly, but that was fine.

 “What is he like?!” Wen Yu was interested.

Qi Wu recalled: "Extremely clean and tidy. The clothes and materials are the most expensive from your place! At this age, there is no fat at all. He has a neat beard and a calm attitude. When he was young, his appearance should be quite delicate, but now... his eyes are black and white. He’s very energetic, unlike someone of his age.”

Wen Yu said: "Don't Mrs. Tan's eyes look like this? Could it be her brother?"

Qi Wu thought about it and shook his head: "It's not very likely! Outside, his fame is incredible! His ranking in the imperial examination is so high, so he must have done very well in his studies on weekdays. The local parents and officials have to support him. ! With a brother like him, the Tan family will never live in such poverty."

Wen Yu became a little anxious: "It's neither this nor that. So if you want to find out their relationship... what should you do?"

"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it secretly, and then wait for news from Mubo and the others."

Wen Yu's eyes suddenly lit up: "By the way, I'm going to find Mrs. Li! Mr. Li Ge has argued with her so much. He must know himself and the enemy. Maybe he knows something."

 Just do it! She immediately asked Xiaoji to go to Li's house to deliver the post. When Mrs. Li saw that Wen Yu wanted to meet, she nodded coldly: "That's right. I also have something to ask her, so let her come."

Wen Yu came quietly, and Mrs. Li said: "Mrs. Qi Wu, please sit down."

Looking at Mrs. Li’s serious face, there was no smile at all. This makes him unhappy... As soon as Wen Yu sat down, Mrs. Li asked, "Are you the ones who kidnapped Yang Xiangdong a few days ago?"

 “You know?” Wen Yu was shocked.

"I know he was kidnapped, but later he came back fine. I think he is one of yours."

Wen Yu smiled and said, "I don't understand something, so I brought him here to ask."

Mrs. Li sneered. Although she hated Yang Xiangdong and guarded him at all costs, he was a member of the Li family after all! She can ignore him, but others...it depends on the owner to beat the dog.

The woman in front of me was taken away without a word! What do you think of the Li family? This is really unreasonable!

"Wen Yu, please restrain yourself! Yang Xiangdong is from my Li family, and he is also an official of the imperial court! It is too arrogant to be kidnapped without saying a word!"

"Madam, this is Wen Yu's fault. I apologize to you!" Wen Yu followed his kindness and stood up and saluted.

Mrs. Li looked suspicious. Is she so easy to talk to? "If you were so sensible, you wouldn't do something like this! What do you want to do? If you know anything, just come and ask me!"

 “What are you asking for? How did Yang Xiangdong deliberately try to bring down the Li family?”

 “You!” Mrs. Li was furious.

 “Madam, don’t be angry!”

Dr. Li was trembling with anger and almost called someone to come in and take her out: "Wen Yu, do you think I can't do anything to you!?"

"Madam... Wen Yu just wants to lighten the atmosphere. Today, I came here specifically to ask for your advice!"

"You are so bold that you dare to do anything, why do you need to ask me for advice?" Mrs. Li was a little angry with herself. Do I have nothing to do? Why do you want her to come?

 Just give her a good look!

“Really, I sincerely ask you for advice. People say that the person who knows you best is your opponent...So, I want to ask you for personal information!”

"Where did you hear these nonsense? When I turned around and saw Cui Fengying..."

"My mother-in-law doesn't care about me. It's useless for you to tell her! Okay, let's stop chatting and talk to you about business!"

Mrs. Li looked at her coldly and didn't even ask for tea.

“Let me ask you about Mr. Zhou, the former Minister of Civil Affairs. He was competing with Mr. Li Ge for the position..."

Mrs. Li suddenly forgot that she was angry and was a little surprised: "Him? He has been retreating for many years. He only comes out occasionally when big things happen... Why do you want to ask about him?"

“To tell you the truth, the last few incidents and several threads have finally passed through his needle! But I want to investigate, but I have no clue... Moreover, this Mr. Zhou is quite powerful...

　　I knew that something was wrong with him, but I didn’t know the depth of it, so I didn’t dare to act rashly. Mr. Ge Lao, I think he was the enemy of Zhou Shangshu back then! Mr. Ge Lao won, and he must have suppressed him. You will know more... Our interests are related, you will definitely know everything, right? "

Mrs. Li thought carefully: "What do you mean, he is behind Yang Xiangdong?"

"That's what my husband said when he asked Yang Xiangdong. However, he made his own guess and did not contact that person directly." Mrs. Li's heart was churning. Yang Xiangdong, this bastard, I really led the wolf into the house! It seems that there is really no way to stay... He calmed down and asked Wen Yu: "But he has been retreating for several years..."

"Although he has retired, many of the current chief officials were once his subordinates. He knows what abilities those people have and what mistakes they have made!"

Mrs. Li said: "To tell you the truth, when he first came down, I paid attention to him for two years. But he was low-key and stable. In addition to finding a stable position for his son, he stayed down. Mr. Ge once praised him: It’s admirable to be able to take things up and put them down, and to know how to advance and retreat! But when you put it this way…”

 “What kind of person is he?” Wen Yu asked.

"This man... Mr. Ge said that he is extremely talented, has clear ideas, and is calm in his methods. He has taken the lead in doing several major things, all of which are worthy of praise. However, his thoughts are a little scattered and his attention is not entirely on the main thing. In order to be humane and worldly. Mastery, it took too much energy, and it was precisely because of this that Mr. Ge narrowly won.

 He has been in the Ministry of Personnel and is well versed in the ways of being an official. I am afraid that he also knows many secrets of officials. Those people's wealth and lives are in his hands, and it is possible for him to use them. "

 “How is his relationship with several princes?”

Mrs. Li looked at Wen Yu again, "At that time, the emperor's position was already stable, he was young and powerful, and his wisdom was profound, so no one was close to the prince. Do you mean that he attached himself to someone?"

Wen Yu smiled and said: "If you want to touch Mr. Li Ge, no matter how capable Mr. Zhou is, it will be difficult! But if you want to hook up with a certain prince, it is not impossible."

“Did you hear about it from your grandson?” Mrs. Li asked with a smile.

Wen Yu shook her head: "I found it myself, because my cousin..." Then she told what happened to the Song family.

 “Prince Wu’s Mansion?” Mrs. Li’s eyes narrowed again.

Wen Yu pointed at the object and said, "Bring it to His Highness the Prince to see. His Highness said there are four fragrant **** in total, and the Prince's Mansion also has them, but the gems on them are different."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince..." Mrs. Li whispered, "I'm afraid, the life of the recent one is not easy."

"For Your Highness, it's good to be alive." Wen Yu said seriously.

Mrs. Li sighed softly and turned around to think about it carefully, "When you say this, it reminds me of a case a few years ago, the Yun family. When I was a child, I had a best friend who was my classmate when I was in school. A year later, her family moved away, and we lost contact after a long time. Later, I heard that she married into the Yun family, and I specifically asked about the reason..."

“Madam is really smart. We also searched for a long time before linking several things together.”

Mrs. Li glared at Wen Yu and said, "Stop licking your beard!"

Wen Yu said: "Yang Xiangdong guessed that the person behind it was Mr. Zhou because a similar thing happened to a family he knew. Yang Xiangdong is also an extraordinary person."

Mrs. Li sighed: "Because of this, I don't know what to do. If I restrict his future, he will be resentful. If I help him, I am afraid of raising a tiger to cause trouble. Then I will drag down the Li family, and I will really be a sinner." ”

 “How is he at home?”

"It's back to the past. My sister is happy all day long. I have persuaded her to let Yang Xiangdong take a concubine."

Wen Yu said: "I particularly understand your feeling of powerlessness. Yang Xiangdong is a first-rate judge of the situation. Webster is a fool he has made, and he will probably restrain himself in the future. As long as the Li family does not collapse, your sister's life will be worry-free."

"hope so!"

"I suspect Mr. Zhou, there is another very important thing. Judging from your spending at my shop...you can probably infer the life of the Li family. It is very different from the Zhou family..."

Mrs. Li didn't take it seriously: "My father-in-law is not a cabinet minister for promotion and wealth. He is for sharing the king's worries and benefiting the people. His old man has a clean mind! I am not just looking for enjoyment. Don't use this to mock me!" "

“Why are you mocking you? Even my grandfather would not give up thousands of taels of silver for burning incense. Do you have anything to do with Mr. Zhou?”

Mrs. Li shook her head: "He is a very slippery person. If we talk about big mistakes, there really aren't any!"

 Wen Yu expresses doubt.

"Wen Yu, what I said is true. His fight with Mr. Ge is a dispute over government affairs. Mr. Ge disdains manipulation, but Mr. Li and I have investigated in private. This man made a small mistake. It’s not that we don’t have children, but no one is perfect, and so does my father-in-law! Therefore, it is indeed my father-in-law’s idea that wins in the end. His defeat is not disgraceful.”

Wen Yu was a little disappointed, "Is there really nothing? His background is similar to that of the elder, right?"

“About the same, ordinary country squires! Some of the Li family are officials in the court, and they are said to be better than the Zhou family. There is something strange..."

"You say."

“Generally speaking, as long as someone in a family gets ahead, they will pull in the family members and fellow villagers. Even for the Li family, I put a lot of energy into this aspect.

It's either taking exams, looking for a job, happy events or funerals, in short, it can't be short-lived. As for Mr. Zhou, after he became an official in the capital, he bought a bookstore and arranged for male and female managers. Whenever anyone comes from his hometown, he will be received there.

 If you do well in studies, you can receive rewards there. Those whose families are in difficulty can also find relief there. Anyone looking for a job with him can basically arrange it if they put their request there. Ordinarily, he can be regarded as having friendship, right?

 But people wanted to see him, but they couldn't. The Zhou family has no other high-ranking officials in the capital, and they have never heard of him returning to his hometown. When others ask about it, they will sigh softly, as if there is something unspeakable..."

 The next chapter will be very late, don’t wait.
