Aunt Jiang was anxious: "Princess, please don't think too much. The prince may be worried. He may be afraid that the girl will cause too much trouble with the Song family and her reputation will be bad. He may be afraid that if the Song family causes trouble, the girl will be arrested." The people at home are disgusted.”
"There is also the old concubine. The old concubine has never liked that you love the girl too much. The prince may be worried that you will make the old concubine unhappy, and that something will happen to the Song family and involve you and the girl..."
She desperately tried to find excuses, trying to say that Prince Cheng didn't mean it, but Princess Cheng couldn't listen to a word of it.
"We have been married for more than ten years. What worries does he have that he can't tell me?"
If you lie, you lie. No matter how many reasons you give, they are just excuses. "
"I don't care about other things, but he clearly knows how the Song family bullied Tang Ning, and how they ruined the reputation of sister-in-law and brother-in-law. So Song Shulan's life experience is related to Tang Ning's future situation in the Song family. He clearly knows I knew Song Shulan had a problem, but he actually hid it from me."
Princess Cheng had tears in her eyes, feeling both angry and heartbroken.
She bit her lip, and after a while she whispered: "Grandma, how much truth do you say about Xie Tianyu's treatment of me?"
"princess…"
Grandma Jiang was shocked.
Princess Cheng took a deep breath to suppress the surge in her eyes: "Grandma, please ask someone to send a letter to Gu Helian for me."
"Gu Langjun?"
Grandma Jiang's eyes suddenly widened.
Gu Helian was the adopted son of the Rong family at that time. He had grown up in the Rong family since he was a child. He used to have a very good relationship with the two girls in the mansion, but later caused great trouble due to his rebellious temperament and disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already a member of the Gu family of the Zuozhou gentry. The head of the family.
Although the Gu family is no longer in the government, they occupy Zuozhou and are extremely powerful, and their wealth is so great that it rivals other countries.
The most important thing is that Gu Helian has a grudge against the princess.
The princess used to avoid him, but now...
"Princess, why don't you let someone else check first?"
"no."
Princess Cheng's eyes were red and her voice was hoarse: "Xie Tianyu deliberately wants to hide it from me, and he will definitely prevent me from investigating. And since he wants to favor the Song family, he will definitely send people to Song Shulan's hometown to help the Song family destroy traces. Rong All the servants have been dispersed long ago, and I can't find anyone who I trust enough and has the ability to avoid Prince Cheng's Mansion, only Gu Helian can do it."
"But..." Mother Jiang struggled with her face: "Gu Langjun, he treats you..."
"Gu Helian hates me, but my sister saved his life back then. He will protect Tang Ning."
Seeing that Aunt Jiang still refused to agree, Princess Cheng's eyes turned red.
"Grandma, the Song family deceived my sister to death, and Xie Tianyu even lied to me. I can't let them hurt Tang Ning, and I want to see what Xie Tianyu can do for the Song family."
"I want to see how much of his feelings for me are true."
Aunt Jiang had never seen her daughter look so cold and cold. She called Prince Cheng by his first name and was filled with disgust towards the Song family.
Thinking of what Mrs. Song had done before, she remembered that Tang Ning almost died in Qishan.
Aunt Jiang's expression changed: "Okay, I'll go deliver the letter."
…
It was already the next morning when the news about Princess Cheng sending someone to Zuozhou reached Xiao Yan's ears.
Xiao Yan was wearing a crimson blouse, and he raised his hand to straighten the hem with dark patterns intertwined with snakes and snakes.
He was preparing to enter the palace to go to court when he heard that Princess Cheng was acting without telling Prince Cheng. After raising his eyebrows and smacking the words "Gu Helian", he seemed to have thought of something funny: "I forgot that the Rong family had such a god of wealth. Lord."
Rumor has it that Gu Helian spent money like water, building a house with gold and jade, traveling with luxury items, and eating delicious food. A little wealth leaking from the cracks of his fingers could support half of Zuozhou.
"But I heard that Gu Helian has a grudge against the Rong family."
Jinyun was a little puzzled: "I heard someone say earlier that Gu Helian had an eccentric personality and hated the Rong family. A few years ago, he fought with Prince Cheng to cause trouble for Princess Cheng. Although he didn't know whether he won or lost, he hasn't been there since. I have never set foot in the capital.”
The Gu family's business spread all over the north and south, and Gu Helian often appeared everywhere, but Gu Helian never entered the capital.
Why would Princess Cheng ask him for help?
Xiao Yan listened to Jinyun's words and smiled half-heartedly: "Have you got a grudge?"
"yes."
Xiao Yan chuckled.
Jin Yun looked confused and didn't know what he said that made the governor laugh. When he followed Xiao Yan out with his cloak in his arms, he asked in a low voice: "Then do we want to take action on the Song family?"
"No need."
If Gu Helian couldn't find out even this little thing, his name as the God of Wealth would be in vain.
The carriage had stopped in front of the mansion. When Xiao Yan went out, he glanced at the still dark house next door. He remembered the little girl who fell asleep while listening to him telling interesting things about the court yesterday afternoon. She fell asleep while leaning against the table. Like a cat purring softly, his eyes were filled with smiles.
"Later, ask the city to send some clean people to the Tang Mansion, and find a few obedient female convicts to send to Tang Ning."
Jinyun was confused: "Mrs. Song, are you planning to add someone to your family?"
Xiao Yandan said "Yes": "She doesn't understand the affairs of the back house, and she also lacks a lot more than the head of the house."
Song Tangning's parents died young, and the Song family didn't show much sincerity to her. Although Princess Cheng protected her, she was not by her side every day.
The Hua Wuguang beside her is loyal and clever, but she doesn't quite understand some things. She doesn't have enough thoughts and energy, and it's too easy to get along with others.
Most of the female relatives of the prison officials are literate, and the education they received since childhood is enough to fill in the gaps that Tang Ning should have learned over the years. He can teach her the calculation of people's minds and teach her to compete with others, but the differences between women He was not good at dealing with the affairs of the back house, and she still lacked a few useful people around her.
"When you go to choose someone, remember to pick someone who is smart and well-behaved. They should be easy to control. It is best if the family's crimes cannot be forgiven. You can only sign a death contract to redeem yourself, and then send Ayane over."
Jinyun's eyes trembled slightly. Lingyin was a spy they trained. How could she use her skills to serve Miss Song? Is the governor being too kind to Miss Song?
"If you just want to protect Miss Song, just pick two hidden guards and send them over. Why bother with Ayane..."
Xiao Yan raised his eyes to look at him.
Jinyun said: "Does the Governor care too much about Mrs. Song? You can just bring her to Jiuyun Lane. It's okay to protect her and the Song family breaks up. But is it inappropriate to continue like this?"
"What's wrong?"
"There are a lot of things involved with Miss Song, not just the Duke of Song, but also the Lu family. The Governor used Emperor An's help to move the family to find out what happened back then, but if the Lu family is entangled with Miss Song, Governor, didn’t you ruin the Governor’s plan?”
"Furthermore, it is not appropriate for the Governor to keep his identity secret. It is a risk for Miss Song to stay in Jiuyun Lane. The Governor is getting closer to her. If one day she discovers the Governor..."
Before Jin Yun finished speaking, he met Xiao Yan's eyes.
It was obviously just a glance with no intimidating force, and his posture was still as casual and casual as before, but it gave off a sense of oppression that squeezed people's hearts for no reason.
Jinyun's face changed slightly and he quickly shut up.
Xiao Yan averted his eyes and got on the carriage. When he let go of the curtain, there was a rustling sound.
"Since I accept her title of "brother," I naturally have to keep her safe. If I can't even protect a little begonia, what else can I talk about?"
The carriage curtain swayed slightly, covering his sharp sword eyes.
"I know what happened back then. I want to eliminate the family, and I want to protect Song Tangning."
"There are some things I don't want to say a second time."
Jinyun understood the warning in Xiao Yan's words, and thought it was just a temporary desire to repay his kindness, but he never expected that this young lady would actually enter the governor's heart.
"My subordinate understands." Jinyun reached out and handed over the cloak.
After taking it, Xiao Yan glanced at the door of Tang Mansion, clasped his fingers and knocked on the side of the car: "Enter the palace."
