[Red Mansion+Qing Chuan] The heroine comes from the last days

Unbuttoning him, removing his coat, shoes and socks, and then serving him to rest.Kangxi held her waist with one hand, kissed her long hair lightly, and said with a low smile, "What are you thinking at this moment?"

Jiang Ling was startled, and subconsciously said, "No, nothing."

Kangxi laughed again, still didn't point it out, and covered her with a thin quilt as usual.Although the weather was a bit cold at this time, she was covered with a thin layer of sweat because of being too nervous just now.Kangxi seemed to be aware of it, patted her on the back comfortingly, and said gently: "Go to sleep, it will be cold at night." Then he turned sideways so that she was lying in his arms.

Jiang Ling couldn't sleep well.Those words of Kangxi just now, and those words on the painting boat, all came to mind word by word, and there was something wrong with the whole person.Jiang Ling secretly opened his eyes, glanced around, but met Kangxi's gaze directly.

"Emperor, Your Majesty!..."

"Can't sleep?"

Kangxi brushed her long hair and wiped a drop of sweat from the tip of her nose.

Jiang Ling froze for a moment, staring blankly at his movements without blinking.Kangxi laughed dumbly, covered her eyes with his palms, and said in a low voice: "This way you will feel more at ease. Go to sleep, I am really tired from being on the boat today."

Jiang Ling closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling in Kangxi's palm.

Kangxi smiled unconsciously, and when Jiang Ling's breathing became clear and shallow, as if he had really fallen asleep, he removed his palm, but still maintained the original position, and slowly fell asleep.

Jiang Ling opened his eyes, staring at Geng Lou in the corner in a daze.

The people beside him were still, and their breathing was even and long, obviously falling into a deep sleep.Jiang Ling just happened to be pillowed in his arms, the posture was a bit intimate, but it wouldn't make her feel uncomfortable.More leaking water drops slowly seeped down drop by drop, passing the mark line of Haishi, and it was quiet outside, except for the chirping of insects.

—How did things become like this?

Jiang Ling stared at the window in the corner and continued to be in a daze, recalling what happened that night again.Kangxi's behavior on the boat was normal, and his behavior in the garden was also normal. Just now in the house, his behavior was barely normal.

Except for some crazy behaviors occasionally, Kangxi is really a normal emperor.

But I don't know where that strange feeling comes from.Jiang Ling sighed secretly, watching the more leaky engraved line spread from Haishi to Zishi, and gradually passing Choushi, then he helped Fuyin's aching temple, closed his eyes and fell asleep in Kangxi's arms.

A good night's sleep.

When Jiang Ling woke up the next day, she forgot everything about last night.

The sun outside is very good, which is unique to summer, but it doesn't look scorching.On a whim, Jiang Ling ordered someone to move the low couch outside and enjoy the coolness under the shade of a tree.The maids fanned her with round fans and chatted with her from time to time.While talking, the topic turned to the officials outside.

The maid smiled and said: "Early in the morning, Mr. Liu brought in many thick account books, saying that they were old accounts accumulated over the years, and there was dust on them. The adults in the household department are miserable. Reconcile the accounts one by one."

The unique softness of Jiangnan was rubbed into her voice, with some sweetness of Wu Nong's soft language, which is very pleasant to hear.

Jiang Ling also took a round fan to fan herself, and asked with a smile: "Account book?" She thought to herself, she just heard that something happened to Xue's family a while ago, and she seemed to be involved in some official case.Kangxi suddenly went to Jinling to check the account, could it be because of this?

The maid chuckled softly, and said in a delicate and soft voice, "Master, you are right. There are many literate maidservants in our garden, all of whom worked with the old lady in the past. For example, Xing'er in front of me Sister, I was called to the front early this morning, saying that I was sorting out the account books for the adults. Heh, there was a huge pile of them, all covered with thick dust. Sister Xing’er said that she had never seen such an account book. But no After a while, Sister Xing'er was kicked out, saying that she couldn't understand what was written in those account books, and she should let the literate accountant be a helper."

It is said that the garden where Jiang Ling and others lived belonged to a rich local businessman's family, and had nothing to do with the four families of King Xue and Jia Shi.

Hearing what the maid said at this moment, Jiang Ling became interested: "Then what happened next?"

The maid shook her fan, and said: "Later, the accountants were kicked out, saying that these account books were different from others, they were made by businessmen from Shanxi and Shanxi, and it was quite difficult to read. Although Sister Xing'er I have studied accounting with the old lady for several years, and I know a few words, but how can I know the crooked ideas of other places, let alone the adults in the household department find it difficult, and want to find more staff in Jinling , to sort out the accounts clearly. Hey."

Her soft "oh" reminded Jiang Ling of something.

When she was still in school in the early years, she had learned two sets of ancient bookkeeping methods, one is the four-post settlement method commonly used by officials, and the other... well, she also forgot what it was called, anyway, it was in the Shanxi area The popular law is more complicated than the official law, and it is easier to see any mistakes and omissions, but if you don't learn this way, you will easily get confused.

What is that method called? ...

Before Jiang Ling could figure it out, the maid said with emotion: "Just now I heard from the sisters in front that those adults in the household department really have a difficult life, and the literate maids and servants can't keep up. The accountant is not very useful, saying, "Jinling Mansion is obviously an official residence, but he insists on making such outlandish methods, what is the purpose of it?" My lord, tell me, isn't this a bit weird?" He laughed twice again, his voice soft.

Jiang Ling smiled and said, "I dare not speak in vain."

But what is the method, Longmen Account or Four-leg Account?

After being away from the previous world for so long, many things have become blurred.

Jiang Ling thought about it, and then fell into a kind of contemplation, muttering to himself: "I've heard of it before... Is it the deposit, payment and deposit, or the double track of profit and loss? Compared with other methods, it is more complicated, and if there is There is also a special way to smooth out mistakes and omissions. But why can't I remember clearly now..."

At some point, the maid stopped shaking her fan, her eyes were wide open, and she looked behind Jiang Ling.

The noon sun slanted down from the branches, blurring the faces of the two people, but one could still clearly see one dressed in bright yellow and the other in indigo standing behind Jiang Ling.The man in bright yellow raised his hand, and the man in indigo left quietly, and brought two tents over after a while.

The maid was still dumbfounded, trembling, and mouthed an "Emperor".

Kangxi shook his head slowly, raised his hand to signal her not to speak, then quietly walked behind Jiang Ling, listening to her muttering to herself:

"Eh, it's been so long that I can't remember clearly. It's a pity I watched it in the early years. If it weren't for the past two years... Well, why did you suddenly have this expression, did you see your sister Xing'er? "The last sentence was asked by the maid.

The maid trembled in fright at the phrase "Have you seen your sister Xing'er?" The fan fell to the ground, and she also knelt down.

Kangxi propped his hands on the low couch, put them next to Jiang Ling's ears, and laughed softly.

Jiang Ling almost fell off the couch in shock, but was held firmly by Kangxi.She looked at the hands on her arms, and asked a little dullly: "The emperor, why is the emperor here..." It seemed, as if, she had forgotten that Kangxi would come here every noon.

Kangxi smiled next to Jiang Ling's ear: "If I don't come, how can I hear your shocking words?"

"My lord..."

"It's okay." Kangxi let go of Jiang Ling, walked across to her, sat down on the low couch, and asked a little casually: "Just now you said, have you seen that kind of account? It was when I was in the mansion in the early years What?" Jiang Ling's false identity was the daughter of a high official, so Kangxi preconceived that she had seen that kind of troublesome accounting before she got married.

What else can Jiang Ling say, he can only admit it honestly.

Kangxi showed such an expression, he summoned the two tents behind Jiang Ling, and said, "Tell them, what is the origin of those accounts? And what about the 'errors and omissions' just mentioned, again. What do you mean?"

Jiang Ling caught a glimpse of those two tents, and his mind twitched again.Even someone was called over, how long has Kangxi been standing behind her...

But what needs to be done still needs to be done.Jiang Ling couldn't figure out whether it was a Longmen account or a four-legged account, so he briefly mentioned both.These two methods are in the same line, and they are not the same routine as the officials, so the two accountants are a little confused.It wasn't until Jiang Ling mentioned that there might be any omissions in these two methods, and how could it be possible to smooth out the discrepancy and write off the deficit, did he raise his spirits again.

Probably because Kangxi was sitting in front of him, the two accountants were quite respectful.

Jiang Ling briefly mentioned the two methods, and then looked at Kangxi, indicating that he was really exhausted and had nothing to offer.Kangxi asked the two accountants, knowing that they had listened in, he waved his hand and said, "Go."

The two accountants retreated together, including Manager Liang and the maids.

The midday sun was scorching, Jiang Ling had no choice but to hold up a round fan to block the sun a little, and called out to the emperor softly.

All that should be said has been said, but Kangxi still stayed here, so Jiang Ling could only think that he came to see him at noon today because of other things, and the Longmen accounts were just incidental.She thought about it, and then tentatively asked: "The emperor is here today..."

Kangxi smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to see you."

Early this morning, he had just sent someone to investigate the case, when two or three old cases were uncovered and piled up on the desk of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.The waiter was so frightened that his legs went limp. If only one old case last night was to be overturned, it could be considered as dereliction of duty;In such a large area as Jinling, if something like this happened, he, the servant in charge of the examination, would not be able to escape.

So this morning, accounts were piled upon accounts, old cases were piled upon old cases, and ghosts and wolves were howling in front of them.

Kangxi was annoyed by them, so he wanted to come to Jiang Ling to take a rest and let himself be quiet for a while.But I didn't expect Jiang Ling to have seen that kind of accounts, and even adjusted and taught two accountants for him, which was really a pleasant surprise.

Thinking of this, Kangxi smiled and said: "And let me discover another skill of yours. I said before that you are a seven-holed and exquisite heart, and you are really right." His vision has always been very good, and now The same is true for the second time.

Jiang Ling didn't expect him to say that, so he felt a little embarrassed.

Kangxi seemed to see her embarrassment, and smiled again: "Okay, I should go back too. Pay attention to what happened on the Qinhuai River yesterday, and see if there are any people who don't have eyes and want to go here. The garden is full of people. I plan to stay in Jinling for a while, if there are some people coming in, you will be the only one to ask."

Although he claims to be the only one who asks questions, Kangxi doesn't appear to be strict at all.

Jiang Ling looked away slightly, landed on a weeping willow next to him, and responded softly.

Kangxi glanced outside again, feeling that the time should be almost up, so he got up and walked forward.Just halfway there, Manager Liang ran over panting again, and said a few words in a low voice. Kangxi frowned deeply when he heard this.

Manager Liang said that it was the Wang family who chartered the huge boat last night, and it was an unknown wealthy businessman on the boat who was said to have come from Yangzhou to put people on the other boats.
