Chapter 342 I have saved enough money to come back to redeem you
But now, when I think of it, Emperor Yao only recalls the article at that time and forgets his feelings at that time.
"After all, men are not as careful as women."
Wei Chen now does not compete for favor in the Si Mansion and concentrates on being his tailor. At that time, he was chosen to be given to Si Yiluo because he had a weak temper and was easy to handle, but now it seems that it is unnecessary. A weak temper also means that he cannot be in power.
The back house of the Si Mansion was so busy that he had no intention of competing for favor, and he couldn't compete with others.
"Does Gong Xiyun still have King Min Yunie contacting him?"
King Min is the eternal thorn in his heart. He doesn't want to see anyone related to King Min now, but he is afraid that those people will hide in the dark and cause chaos, so he can only spare Gong Xiyun's life.
As long as the remnants of King Min know that Gong Xiyun is in the Si Mansion, they will definitely show their flaws.
Wan Zhong shook his head and said: "Gong Xiyun has become a lot more honest recently, and I haven't seen him leave the house."
"Keep an eye on it."
He was assured of Si Yiluo's ability, but he just thought of something and asked again, "That Young Master Yanhuan..."
He met Si Yiluo at a lantern festival, and then joined the Si Mansion. His identity and background were all clean, and he had a bit of a weird temper. Emperor Yao didn't ask any further questions.
Normally he shouldn't be involved in the private affairs of his officials, but Si Yiluo was special. He couldn't interfere in her marriage even if he wanted to.
"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor told you to worry less. According to my opinion, Sir Si and Governor Wei are both trustworthy people. With these two solving your problems, you can just take good care of yourself..."
Wanzhong's words touched the heart of Emperor Yao.
"You're right, I really need to take good care of myself." Emperor Yao stood up and stretched, "Si Hai, go call He Yan and accompany me for a walk in the garden. It's already the beginning of summer before you know it. If you don't go out,
Take a look around, I can't even see the shadow of the peony flower."
"Speaking of which, there is no banquet held this year..."
Wan Zhong reminded carefully: "Your Majesty, April 17th is the 70th birthday of Song Guogong's wife. Song Guogong's mansion will definitely have a big event. Let's go and join in the fun then?"
Emperor Yao had forgotten about Song Guogong. When Wan Zhongyi reminded him, he remembered that the queen had mentioned this matter to him a month ago.
But he won't admit that he was negligent.
"I think you want to join the fun in the palace!"
Wan Zhong supported him and responded with a smile: "Your Majesty, you guessed my slave's thoughts right away..."
When Wei Heyan arrived, Emperor Yao remembered something and said, "He Yan, there is something you need to do. Go to the warehouse to pick out a few expensive gifts and send them to the Duke of Song Dynasty in my own name."
To a certain extent, Wei Heyan represented Emperor Yao's attitude. If he went to deliver congratulatory gifts in person, the Duke of Song would not feel neglected.
"Wan Zhong, please go and ask the Queen to come and enjoy the flowers with me."
…
The official uniforms were made at short notice, and the appointment documents were stuck for a few days. The students who were awarded Jinshi this spring have not yet set off to take office. But the official uniforms have been put on, and before the appointment documents are issued, the errands are already confirmed. These students often
Small groups gathered in restaurants to eat and drink.
Jiang Yun waited from morning until noon, then from noon until evening, and finally waited until before the curfew, and finally waited for Ye Xu, who was drunk.
"Master Ye..."
The house Ye Xu rented in the capital was in a separate courtyard in the west of the city. He brought a boy and an old servant with him, and it was more than enough for three people.
"Yun Niang!" Ye Xu suddenly woke up from the wine. He stepped forward to grab her hand and lift up his sleeves, asking, "Why are you here? They, they didn't beat you again, did they? Let me see...
"
Jiang Yun had an injury on her arm, and it was very painful when he grabbed her. She held his wrist with her backhand, blocking his movement to check.
"I'm fine!"
Ye Xu paused and hugged her.
"Don't worry, Yun Niang. I have asked my colleagues to help introduce the head of the Ministry of Etiquette. I will find a way to help you redeem yourself before I take office!"
Listening to his strong heartbeat and sonorous promise, Jiang Yun's eyes heated up.
"Master Ye, I..."
What she wanted to say was hot on her tongue, but she couldn't get the words out even though she tried hard.
Ye Xu thought of something, suddenly let her go, and asked nervously: "Will the supervisor find out if you sneak out? Will you be beaten when you go back?"
He was really worried about her. Jiang Yun wiped away the overflowing tears and said with a smile: "It's okay. A distinguished guest has booked the boat tonight. There are many people waiting on the boat. It doesn't matter if I am missing."
Ye Xu felt relieved and pulled her into the house.
"Mr. Ye, you..."
Ye Xu didn't let her finish her words and kept talking to himself.
"Mother Yun, do you know that it is very difficult to get into the Shibo Examination Department? Many colleagues gave gifts everywhere but failed to win. There was only one spot assigned to me!"
"Although he is only a ninth-grade official, he is in charge of the commercial tax of ships, and he has a lot of money. Before leaving the capital, I will open up the relationship first. You can hold on for another year, and when I take office, I will have enough money.
I will come back to redeem you!"
Jiang Yun couldn't bear to interrupt his excitement. Seeing that she was not very interested, Ye Xu thought he had made her wait too long.
"Mother Yun, don't be discouraged. I remember all the hardships you endured for me. You have survived all these years. If you wait for me for another year, I will definitely come back to redeem you!"
Jiang Yun sighed.
"Someone has redeemed my life..."
Her voice was weak, but the room was too quiet, and the lights crackled, causing the light in the room to twitch.
Ye Xu asked in disbelief: "Yun Niang, you...how could you! Have you forgotten the agreement between us?"
"I haven't forgotten!" Jiang Yun explained, "But I couldn't help myself, so I begged the guest. The guest said that as long as I could come up with two thousand taels of silver, he would take pity on me and help me get rid of my lowly status.
Set me free!"
"Mr. Ye, I only have three days. Today has passed and there are only two days left. If we can't raise two thousand taels of silver, we will never be together again in this life... Mr. Ye, please think of a way!"
"Two thousand taels of silver?" Ye Xu's pupils shrank and he said with pain in his eyes, "I had agreed with Furong Pavilion that I would only need five hundred taels of silver to redeem you, but now... what have you done?"
Facing his questioning gaze, although Jiang Yun felt uncomfortable, she didn't think much about it.
"Mr. Ye, I know that my request is very difficult for you, but can you help me think of a way... It will cost a lot of money to open up a relationship, and it may not be possible. There are some customers who can help me redeem my life.
If you have the ability to help me, just treat the money as a loan from me, and I will definitely make double the money back to you in the future!"
Ye Xu asked tentatively: "Who is the identity of the guest who redeemed your body? How can you be sure that he is not lying to you?"
In order to prove that this time is really an opportunity, Jiang Yun explained: "I don't know the identity of the other party, but the person who has the ability to book the largest boat on the Sacred Heart Lake has a status in Shengjing City that can be imagined, and the other party is a small businessman.
Young Master, your words and deeds reflect everyone's demeanor, and you didn't make things difficult for me. Maybe someone in my family will become a high official in the court!"
When Ye Xu heard this, his tone softened, and then he said worriedly: "But Yun Niang, my family only has two hundred acres of land. It is ancestral property and cannot be touched. The harvest has not been good in the past two years. I study and spend money to grow crops."
I brought a total of three hundred taels of silver to the capital to rush for the exam, and now I have spent almost all of it, where can I get so much money!"
Two people are having trouble sitting together.
Jiang Yun felt really sorry and suggested in a low voice: "How about you borrow some from your classmates and I can write an IOU!"
