Liu Zhuang was stunned.

Some can't believe it.

Well, when did he say he wanted to stay up late with them?

Didn't he just want to wait and see her reaction? Why...

Before he could react, Dongqing had already brought a chair over and placed it outside the door.

"Liu Zhuangtou, please."

Liu Zhuangtou: "..."

With a simple and honest smile on his face, he rubbed his hands and said sheepishly: "Hey, Miss Holly, I actually..."

"I know you are loyal and think about our young lady. You are afraid that our young lady will be tired if you stay up late and look at the accounts. We understand you. Since Liu Zhuangtou cares so much about our young lady, then you can rest here first. It's just right. If there is anything that our young lady doesn’t understand, we can come to you at any time. With your answers at any time, our young lady can also read faster, so that we can go to bed earlier, right?"

Liu Zhuang was speechless for a while.

I want to say something, but I don’t know where to start.

Fu Ling also said: "Don't worry about it, Liu Zhuangtou. Although it's a little cold outside, you have stayed in the village all year round and farmed. You must be in strong health and you must not be so afraid of the cold. Our young lady is a female family member, so you won't be so afraid of the cold." So I can leave you alone in the big house. Although we are accompanied by two maids, it still doesn’t sound good if the news spreads. But don’t you know that the young servants we brought with us can only stay outside? You Just feel aggrieved and sit at the door, I will ask you to come in when I need you."

Liu Zhuangtou: "..."

He was completely speechless now.

Dongqing and Fuling were talking about this, so he couldn't say he wouldn't cooperate and wanted to go back to sleep.

If I had known better, I wouldn't have waited here. Hiss - it's such a cold day, even though it hasn't snowed yet, it would be freezing if I had to sit outside all night.

After dealing with Liu Zhuangtou, Song Anning concentrated on reading the account book.

And this time, the other side.

Pei Qingyan waited for a while, then suddenly noticed something and his ears moved.

Then he said to his companion: "You watch here, I'll go to the toilet first."

The companion nodded and told him to go back quickly, so he stayed there for him.

Pei Qingyan went to the hut, but did not go in. Instead, he went around to the other side and left Zhuangzi directly through a small road.

On a country path outside Zhuangzi, there were overgrown weeds, and there were trees taller than people beside the road. Pei Qingyan stood in a place, looked around to make sure no one was following him, and then said: "Come out. "

A figure emerged from the grass.

"grown ups."

It turned out to be Su Zian.

Pei Qingyan frowned and said, "Why are you here?"

Su Zian chuckled, "Master Qingxuan asked me to inform you that the fish was caught and some good things were found, so you can go back immediately."

With that said, he told him the news about General Li's private meeting with Mrs. Qin.

Pei Qingyan's pupils shrank.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Tell Qingxuan that he will be solely responsible for this matter. I have other matters here and I will go back in two days."

Su Zian was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.

But thinking of the woman staying on Zhuangzi, he smiled again and said, "Hey, I'll go back and talk to Lord Qingxuan right now."

After Su Zian left.

Pei Qingyan stood there for a long time.

Thinking of his previous guesses, he couldn't help but laugh.

It turns out this is really the case.

He knew that the information he found out would not be wrong. Tie Yin was indeed plotting against the Jiang family. Since it was not Jiang Rongsheng, it was the Qin family whose family members worked in the Salt and Iron Division.

Thinking of this, his eyes turned cold.

Smuggler Tie Yin, regardless of whether he colluded with the rebellious party or not, it is a capital crime!

I just don’t know if the Anyuan Hou Mansion in Beijing knows about this...

Thinking of this, his eyes darkened, the corners of his lips curled up with amusement, and then he walked in the direction of Zhuangzi.

in the room.

Song Anning checked the accounts all night long.

It wasn't until dawn that I finished checking the accounts, and I couldn't help but sigh.

The accounts on this Zhuangzi were messier and worse than she had imagined.

It can be said that the village head previously enriched his own pockets and embezzled at least [-]% of the Jiang family's money.

The Jiang family harvested a total of [-]% a year, [-]% was given to the tenant farmers, [-]% was given to the village head, and the other [-]% was taken back to the owner's family.

It was originally a fair way to distribute profits, but the village head was greedy and took another [-]% of his own [-]%. It was like he did no work on his own and just supervised the farmers on the farm. He can get [-]% of the silver, which is more than the master's family. It seems that the master's family is working for him.

Song Anning laughed sarcastically in her heart.

It's no wonder that the Jiang family was in such a state of decline for a period of time in the previous life.

She remembered that those were the saddest days for Jiang Hua in Beijing.

There is a legitimate mother and legitimate son in the Anyuan Hou Mansion.

It's just that the legitimate son has always been in poor health. I heard that he was sick since he was born and had been living with a medicine jar. The doctors said that he would not live to be 20 years old, but he managed to survive until he was 28 years old.

A few years before his death, Jiang Hua returned to the Anyuan Hou Mansion. Although there were several concubines in the Anyuan Hou Mansion, Jiang Hua was favored by the daughter of Prime Minister Li Yun and had the financial resources of the Jiang family behind him. Support, so he suddenly changed from the most insignificant bastard to the most powerful competitor to inherit the position of marquis.

But the legitimate mother and legitimate son were not easy to get along with either.

Seeing that the duck in its mouth was about to fly away, it was impossible for them not to move.

After all, compared to the other concubines in the mansion, Jiang Hua was the one they despised the most. Moreover, the aunt's mother also had a distant cousin who also married into the Hou's mansion and became a concubine for the Hou. My own son is useless. If he wants to support another bastard to rise to power, he must support that one. It is impossible to support the Jiang family.

So a battle for the throne began.

Winning the throne requires money.

It is impossible for the Li family to give him this money. The Li family will only help him in his official career.

Then the money matter naturally fell on the Jiang family.

But how confident can the Jiang family be?

My own accounts are in a mess, and I always like to make grand arrangements. It is a rotten ship with three nails left, so it is impossible to spend so much money.

But for Jiang Hua, Qin still tightened her belt pockets and sent money to the capital again and again.

Most of them came from Song Anning.

Later, something happened to the Song family, and all her parents died at the hands of the refugees. The Qin family took away all the property of the Song family, half of which was given to the Jiang family, and the other half was given directly to Jiang Hua to manage the capital. relation.

It was precisely because of this that Jiang Hua rose through the ranks, successfully inherited the title, and held important positions in the court. His future was limitless.

Ha ha……

Do you want to work for such people and work for them?

Of course not.

So Song Anning sent someone to call Liu Zhuangtou in.

After a night of freezing, Liu Zhuangtou was much more honest now.

He also understood that the young lady in front of him was not an easy person to get along with.

Although he looks young, he is experienced in handling things and has the skills to control his subordinates. It is impossible to fool him easily.
