Chapter 99

The imperial decree doesn't care whether you are willing or not, the emperor has already issued an order, even if Su Qinghe is unwilling, she can only think about it in her heart.This is grace, grace!If the Su family didn't know good from bad, they would give the emperor a disgrace.Although Su Zhiping didn't speak clearly, Su Qinghe understood that their family had already chosen a faction.

The prince doesn't care whether they choose happily or not, he only thinks that if it wasn't for the Su family, Mr. Shen would have been locked up forever.If it weren't for the Su family, the faction of Mr. Shen's gang, there would be no possibility of winning.If it weren't for the Su family, the person represented by Mr. Shen would not be so easy to stand up.

Even if their original intention was only to rescue Mr. Shen, everyone would think of the meaning beyond their original intention.In particular, people who engage in politics are very good at brainstorming.Even if there is no relationship, they can imagine any relationship.

Therefore, no matter how unwilling Su Qinghe was, she had to start arranging her things after getting up the next day.No one knows how many days they will stay in the capital. If the emperor is in a good mood and stays with them for a longer period of time, they probably won't be able to come back years ago.

Of course, Su Qinghe sincerely hoped that the emperor would be very busy, so he could only take time out of his busy schedule to meet them, so that they could come back quickly.

When she's done packing here, she will join Su Jingsen, Su Zhang and the others, and go to the Sheriff's Mansion to look for Mr. Shen.It is impossible for Mr. Shen to live in Su Qinghe's house, and he just visited Su's house for a while.

Hearing someone report that the Su family had come, they rushed out to greet them: "I said I was going to pick you up, but I didn't expect you to come here first, and everything has been arranged at home? I heard from Hao Ming that your family just bought a Tenants and servants?"

"Exactly, with some money on hand, I bought an additional [-] mu of land and bought a hundred tenant farmers." Su Jingsen said cautiously. In addition, he planned to build a farm, and he would keep it as a dowry for Xiao He in the future, but , These don't need to be honestly explained to Mr. Shen.

When he faced Mr. Shen before, he felt a little guilty. After all, most of his family's money was exchanged for sweet potatoes, which were given by Mr. Shen.So when Mr. Shen asked, he quickly and honestly explained his family background.

Mr. Shen nodded with a smile: "The tenants are all newly bought, do you know their temperament?"

Su Jingsen opened his mouth, he really wanted to investigate, but didn't you, Mr. Shen, say that you would go to Beijing to meet the emperor?Comparing the investigation of tenants and the visit to Beijing, a fool knows which is more important, okay?

"A few days ago, when I visited the mansion, the eldest son of the mansion said that because of the newly purchased property, I had not had time to invite a housekeeper. I just came here this time and brought a few more capable servants to deal with it. The rules and the like are considered familiar, why don't I be a housekeeper for you?"

Mr. Shen said with a smile again, Su Qinghe stretched out his hand, grabbed Su Zhiping's arm and twisted it vigorously, Su Zhiping gasped in pain, but kept smiling: "Thank you Mr. Shen for your kindness, but the people in your mansion are all I am used to serving in the capital, although Taiyuan County is prosperous, it is not as good as the capital, and the habits of the other two places are different, I am afraid that I will wrong the people of your family."

"Hey, Brother Zhiping is too worried. Taiyuan County and the capital are only three or four days away, and the customs of the two places are similar, so he can't be wronged." After saying that, Mr. Shen greeted him, and it didn't take long , a man came in from outside the door, and after saluting Mr. Shen, he stood aside in an orderly manner.

Su Qinghe looked at the man carefully, he was about 20 years old, very young, and looked about the same age as Mr. Shen.He has delicate features, a bit of elegance, and a respectful expression on his face. When he saw the Su family, he didn't show any other expressions.

"This is Cao Degui. He used to be a servant in my house. He usually followed me and learned some knowledge. He can be regarded as literate." Mr. Shen said with a smile, and handed over a piece of paper: " This is his contract of sale, if Uncle Su doesn't dislike it, then accept it."

Su Qinghe was about to speak, but was grabbed by Su Zhiping's sharp eyes and quick hands. Su Zhian immediately stood up and saluted: "Thank you Mr. Shen for your hard work. Since it is Mr. Shen's intention, if we evade it, it would be a bit too ignorant. That's the case , we will accept Mr. Shen's love."

As he said that, he turned to look at Cao Degui again: "Housekeeper Cao, we are going to Beijing today, and there are quite a few maids and servants with us, so just follow us and give some pointers to those servants and servants. To save them from being ridiculed because they don't understand etiquette after entering Beijing."

Cao Degui hurriedly bowed to Su Zhian: "Yes, Second Young Master, the villain will definitely live up to the Second Young Master's entrustment." After speaking, he saluted Su Jingsen, Su Zhang, Su Zhiping and Su Qinghe, calling him Mrs. Master, Mrs. Young Master and Miss. , the expression on the face is still respectful, and the demeanor is not even half dissatisfied.

Now that the matter has come to this point, it is too late for Su Qinghe to object.I could only look angrily at Cao Degui riding a horse and following beside the convoy.Su Qinghe pulled Su Zhiping into the car: "Brother, why did you agree to Mr. Shen to let Cao Degui be our housekeeper? Are you not afraid that this Cao Degui will take advantage of Mr. Shen's power to look down on our family and bully the master? And I see Seeing that Cao Degui is not like an ordinary person, he went from the capital city to Taiyuan County all of a sudden, from a servant in a high official's house to a housekeeper in a common people's house, he didn't change his face, which shows that he has deep scheming. Harmful thoughts, no one in our family can restrain them!"

Su Zhiping smiled wryly: "You think it's fine if I don't agree?"

Su Qinghe was a little puzzled, Su Zhiping pointed to the direction ahead, in front of their carriage was Su Jingsen and Su Zhang's carriage.Further on, there is Mr. Shen's carriage.What Su Zhiping was referring to could only be the one of Young Master Shen.

"A few days ago, Mr. Shen talked to us in the study, and we talked for a long time, do you remember?" Su Zhiping asked, Su Qinghe nodded, she also ordered the kitchen to deliver supper, how could she not know?
"Mr. Shen has said a lot to us. Now, we must stand on Mr. Shen's side, otherwise, we can only wait to be silenced." Su Zhiping flashed ridicule, and Su Qinghe was a little puzzled: " How did it get to the point of silencing? Everything has already been planted, so the rest is to promote it, and it has nothing to do with us. What’s the use of silencing? Even if we want to silencing, it should be after we plant the things. ?”

Moreover, no one came to silence them before they planted, and no one came to silence them when they harvested, and even when the county sheriff gave the paperwork, no one came to silence them. Come to silence?
"When we started planting, no one thought that the yield of sweet potatoes and potatoes would be as high as this. When we harvested, the county sheriff was in charge. When the county sheriff handed in the booklet, no one thought that we would use the name of Mr. Shen Send the sweet potatoes to the disaster-stricken areas. Now that Mr. Shen came out, those who didn't think of these consequences began to get angry. They are all masters. If this anger can't be directed at Mr. Mr. Shen made these things on our family."

Su Qinghe's complexion changed. After all, he was still implicated by Mr. Shen!Is the prince easy to provoke?Since Mr. Shen is a member of a big family, and the family has power and power, compared to the crown prince, there is no way to kill Mr. Shen silently. Then the best thing to do is the Su family will become the best purgator. choose!

"Then what did Mr. Shen say?" Su Qinghe didn't know what to think of Mr. Shen, so she paused for a while, and had to ask again.

Su Zhiping lowered his voice: "For our current plan, we can only be firmly tied to Mr. Shen. If Mr. Shen succeeds, we will be able to survive. We may be rich and prosperous in the future. If Mr. Shen fails, we will be the last If it’s bad, it’s ransacking the family and exterminating the family, if it’s better, for example, if the prince is a man with a big heart, then we still have a way to survive.”

"But is seizing the heirloom easy to meddle with? Mr. Shen, what conditions does he have to succeed?" Su Qinghe was about to lose his temper, Su Zhiping shook his head, signaling Su Qinghe to keep his voice down.Su Qinghe took a few breaths, and suppressed the anger in her heart, all around here were the soldiers brought by Mr. Shen, if a word reached Mr. Shen's ears, I'm afraid they would have nothing good to eat.

It took a long time for Su Qinghe to calm down, took out a piece of paper, and wrote on the paper: "Brother, what do you mean, we are going to help Mr. Shen win the heir apparent? Which prince is Mr. Shen supporting?"

"Mr. Shen and the third prince have a good relationship, so we don't have to get involved in the seizure of the heir." Su Zhiping wrote these two sentences, and seeing that Su Qinghe didn't understand, he wrote again: "Mr. The ability to farm can benefit the people of the world, and if the successor is a Mingjun, he will definitely be reluctant to kill our family. So the less we participate, the safer we will be in the future."

Both brothers and sisters knew that this situation would have been possible if they had asked shopkeeper Yang to send the sweet potatoes to the disaster area in the name of Mr. Shen.

Now, this possibility is very small.Even if the emperor is a Mingjun, but the people all over the world are grateful to their opponents, so how could they bear it?
Mr. Shen's reputation is now tied to that of the third prince.Mr. Shen has a high reputation among the people, and he represents the third prince.

She should be lucky, after all, is the third prince the adopted son of the second empress?Can he at least be regarded as half a legitimate son?But she still wants to cry, sister, is half a legitimate son considered gross?The prince is now a whole son!Half stronger than his half!

Well, should she rejoice that although the crown prince is the eldest son, he is not the eldest son?There has been no shortage of disputes between the eldest sons throughout the ages?When both of them are hurt, the third will be able to take over?

But how many people have to be sacrificed in this process?It seems that it can be finished in three or two sentences, and even one sentence can summarize the cause, process and result.But who will mention those who died?

Su Qinghe's mood became even more complicated. Mr. Shen involved them in the fight for the heir apparent, but at the same time he thought of them in everything. It's really hard to hate, love or love.

"Brother, you're almost knocking me out." Su Qinghe sighed, and Su Zhiping also sighed: "That Cao Degui, on the one hand, is protecting us, and on the other hand, is watching us. This trip to Beijing, it is inevitable that there will be people from the prince's side. When we stumble, Cao Degui has to protect us at this time. If the prince does not plan to destroy our family, he may be wooing us, and Mr. Shen will never let us change to another faction, so Cao Degui is right now. spy on us."

"So, the housekeeper sent by Mr. Shen must be accepted. Not only must you accept it, but you must also take it with you." Su Zhiping said with a wry smile.After being silent for a long time, probably seeing that Su Qinghe was really depressed, she cheered herself up again: "Little sister, don't worry too much, Steward Cao is still a little capable, let him help us adjust~Teach the servants in the future, and then look at the character, If you can subdue it, then use it for us. If you can’t, then find an excuse and send it back.”

Su Qinghe glanced at him, it would be strange to send him back!
