5.40 Greedy and insufficient——

Time flies by, on the eighth day of August, in the capital, Princess Mansion.

"He was decisive in killing. When he found a problem, he immediately killed it, leaving a lot of trouble for me to clean up." Princess Yongchang dropped the letter and looked at Dongfang Bing beside her and said angrily, "But I don't want to think about such a big problem. How can things be arranged with just a few words? Jia Yucun, right, he is also a prefect, and he is considered a person at the bottom, and he was just ruined by him? "

"Princess, if we had dealt with such a coldhearted person a day earlier, we would have saved ourselves more trouble." Dongfang Bing naturally also read the letter and said in a very firm tone, "He is following the path of Rongguo Mansion. My surname is Jia, so I will inevitably be included in the circle of the Jia family. If I really drag it on, sooner or later I will cause trouble."

"Okay, that's it!" Princess Yongchang picked up the letter again nonchalantly, read it for a while and put it in her pocket, "take some time to burn the others together - what is going on with this Jia Yu Village? Logically speaking, since he borrowed Jia Yu Village The family’s favor is high, so you shouldn’t backhandedly sell off a relative of Jia’s family no matter what, right?”

"The work of Wang Zisheng and the Zhen family." Dongfang Bing said without hesitation, "or it is the work of the Zhen family, Wang Zisheng is just a dog; There were two of them, but Xue Pan was too dissatisfied and took over the title of head of the family.

If he dies, the Xue family and Xue Zihao, who are still one, will have room to intervene. Among other things, Mrs. Xue, who has already arrived in the capital, is the best place to start, at least whether it is Wang Ziteng or Wang Zisheng. , they can all attack Xue Xun and the second wife of the Xue family in the name of "seeking justice for their nephew."

It is impossible to really control Xue Zihao in this way, but there is still no problem in making Xue Xun vomit blood. The Zhen family's purpose is to intervene on the salt road of Xuezihao, but they did not consider it sufficiently. One is that they did not expect Ziyang to be like this. Jue Jue, and the other one was that he didn’t expect that the second wife of the Xue family never came forward and only provided a lot of information to Ziyang. "

"The method is too crude." Princess Yongchang shook her head, "It doesn't seem to be the handiwork of Aunt Zhen. It should be Zhen Yingjia and his two useless sons. It's not difficult to guess why he wants to reach out to Xue Zihao. I just I don’t understand, with such crude means, what can I do even if I kill Xue Pan? The firearms in the second room of the Xue family are not vegetarian, I’m afraid they just helped Ziyang and Xue Xun get rid of their shackles. "

"Princess, please tell me if you need me." Dongfang Bing's eyes tightened suddenly.

"Zi Yang doesn't like this kind of thing." Princess Yongchang smiled and waved her hand, "Let him go and let Zi Yang have a headache; also, didn't you say that Mrs. Xue and the little girl from the second wife have come to Beijing? Really? Have you ever been there to see it?"

"Zi Yang gave me the news in advance. After they docked in Tongzhou, their subordinates took them to the capital." Dongfang Bing immediately replied, "Sister Xue has gone back several times in the past few days, but the princess didn't care; Sister Qin from the second room is really nice, but I only heard that she is engaged to the Mei family of Hanlin Academy, so I’m afraid I’m wronged.”

"That Mei Hanlin who has never moved since he entered the Hanlin Academy? I'm afraid his reputation is very famous among people with a little status in the capital." Princess Yongchang looked at Dongfang Bing speechlessly and asked, "Why is the second wife of Xue's family talking to him? On? If I remember correctly, the only son of the Mei family is not a big deal, right?"

"A poor scholar whose reputation as a scholar has already gained notoriety because of his so-called 'outspokenness and daring to speak'. He doesn't understand the world at all." Dongfang Bing was obviously prepared, "Do you want me to help Qin arrange it? My sister is a good person, but if she really enters the Mei family, she will be really wronged."

"Send the message to him and let him think of a solution." Princess Yongchang's lips raised. "Also, give him a prompt when sending the message. Don't let him get bored in Jiangnan. The situation in the capital is messy, but he has enough leisure. ; And another one, are the manpower he arranged to come over in advance still idle in the east barracks?"

"Princess, don't worry, my subordinates have already arranged for our people to go and train with them. Anyway, there is no need to pay anything." Dongfang Bing thought for a while and said, "There are more than 100 people in total, which is considered a hundred households. What the subordinates mean is I want to use it as our trump card; Ziyang has just produced new firearms, do you want to come over in batches?"

"His people haven't been replaced yet, don't worry. When he expands his manpower, he will help him out and let our people follow him directly. After the training, we will bring them back with them." Princess Yongchang said calmly, "And , He doesn’t need to arrange manpower in his camp, and it’s hard to talk to him if he’s discovered.”

"The princess is referring to the sister of the Zhao family?" Dongfang Bing frowned, "Do you want to remind Ziyang so that he can pay more attention?"

"We are the only ones who know about this matter at the moment. He has done a good job in this regard." Princess Yongchang waved her hand indifferently, "If it hadn't been for the fact that Zhao Nuxia's arrangements in the capital had not been targeted by us at the beginning, I am afraid that I would also have Unexpectedly, this guy would arrange for people to find out the news so early. Has he made any other discoveries since then?"

"No, but the power of the Zhongyuan Escort Bureau has expanded a lot, and it has opened up a situation in Jinling." Dongfang Bing said immediately, and then his expression was stunned, "What the princess means"

"He's quite smart, and he's pretty good at borrowing chickens to lay eggs. I'm afraid Mr. Zhao didn't even notice it." Dongfang Bing smiled and shook his head, "That's all, I'm afraid this is just something on the surface. It really goes deep. The means cannot be in the hands of others; if I guessed correctly, the heroine Zhao already has a powerful force in her hands. Okay, don’t talk about these useless things, please remember to help me take a look When you have time someday, go and meet that Mrs. Do you want to call me sister?"

"My subordinates have also seen this girl. Although they are not very happy, they also admit that Ziyang is indeed worthy of his ability in looking at women." Dongfang Bing showed a helpless look on his face, "It's just a little..."

"Greedy is not enough, but meat and vegetables are not taboo." Princess Yongchang smiled ironically, "Including that Mrs. Xue."

"Princess, after all, the Xue family's sister is also in the house, so the princess should keep her mouth shut." Dongfang Bing said angrily.

"Huh, it's not just this madam. I don't know what she has done to me. You don't know how bad you are? This doesn't affect my niece's surname Zhou." Princess Yongchang's expression was already irritated, "Last time I asked her when I met her at the manor over the Tiexan Temple, but she hasn't received any news in these days, and she seems to have been forgotten."

"Princess-" Dongfang Bing said carefully.

"Okay, now this palace has lost interest." Princess Yongchang waved her hand impatiently, "If you see Yongjing when you enter the palace one day, ask her on my behalf when she will be free. , these people will serve her tea in the future, just go and have a look together, this will save me some time and worry."

"Princess, are you going to the palace these few days?" Dongfang Bing said carefully.

"No need. The whole family wants you to kill me and I will kill you. Why should I go in here to see? Don't you think it's not enough?" Princess Yongchang waved her hand impatiently, "If you have any news, just bring it out. I want to see it. Mood; also, except for Kai'er, for other things you can just say that you are not qualified to agree, which will save some people from pushing too far!"

"I understand!" Dongfang Bing bowed seriously, "It's just that if you want to see His Highness Yongjing, you have to go to Longshou Palace, if that's where it is."

"You can just push it to this palace." Princess Yongjing said coldly, then turned and returned to the inner courtyard, "Everything from now on will be handled according to this, go and get busy; also, inform Jia Zanshan that in the past two days She's on vacation."

".I obey!" Dongfang Bing smiled bitterly, but he could only bow and obey.

A moment later, the study room in the inner courtyard of the princess's mansion.

"I've seen it before." When Xue Baochai saw Princess Yongchang entering the door, she quickly stood up and saluted.

"Okay, take one and look at it. After reading it, it will burn." Princess Yongchang interrupted Xue Baochai impatiently and threw the letter sent back from Zhou Yang into her arms, "Although he has many things that make people upset. At least for your Xue family, it is the utmost benevolence and righteousness."

Xue Baochai didn't care to speak and hurriedly opened the letter. Her expression kept changing as she read. After a while, she breathed a long sigh of relief. She hugged the letter to her chest and turned to Princess Yongchang with a grateful expression.

"Thank you princess for taking care of my brother. Without the princess' help to finish things off, I'm afraid it would be difficult to solve my brother's matter." Xue Baochai gently placed the letter on the desk and respectfully knelt in front of Princess Yongchang. "The Xue family only has one eldest brother now, what if?"

"Okay!" Princess Yongchang sat on the couch impatiently, pulled Xue Baochai up and took her into her arms, "Do you still feel aggrieved now? Although I have given you a lot of obstacles in your status, The benefits include your Xue family’s share!”

"I don't dare!" Xue Baochai said quickly, with a look of struggle on his face, "It's just that Brother Zhou..."

"If he returns to the capital, I'm afraid I'll be in trouble." Princess Yongchang interrupted her lightly, and slowly slid her delicate hand down, "You don't have to think too much, I, the man, just move forward with your future. , there are some inconvenient things, let me be the villain, just like you here."
