Chapter 1015 Chapter 1015
Pei An listened with a half-smile, "I didn't expect that my lady and I would think alike. But don't worry, my lady, I, Pei Si, don't believe in past lives or future lives. I only look at the present. You and I are husband and wife, and we will definitely sleep together in life and death in the same grave in the future. There is absolutely no chance for you to look at another man."
Song Guanzhou said coquettishly, "Silang, you are talking about today, the present, and the future. Who can tell clearly? Maybe you have changed your mind, or maybe I have fallen in love with someone else. Who can imagine it?"
Honeysuckle was behind me, and my head was buzzing.
Other couples are not as separated by life and death as our two ancestors.
It's a pity that this is their personality. You see, the two of them were not angry. They talked and laughed and returned to Shaohua Garden.
There was jubilation in the courtyard.
Song Guanzhou glanced sideways, "Is this lively like the one in our house?"
Pei An shook his head, "I don't know if I'll go out with you."
As soon as the words fell, Qingfang and Qingfei rushed out and almost bumped into Pei An's arms. Fortunately, Rendong was quick-witted and grabbed the two reckless little maids, "Watch the road carefully, what's making such a fuss?"
The little girl blinked her eyes, "Brother Linshan is back with a cart full of goodies. We just moved in from Shaohuayuan, but there are quite a few."
Yo!
Song Guanzhou heard this and, holding onto Pei An's arm, he stepped onto the stone steps. Before he even showed up, his voice was already as loud as a nightingale singing, "Brother Linshan, where have you been?"
The liveliness in the yard is comparable to that of the Chinese New Year.
The cold wind blew, making people unable to stand, but it could not extinguish the enthusiasm of everyone in the courtyard.
When Linshan heard Song Guanzhou's question, he hurried over. He was wearing a leather mattress and a dog-skin hat. His beard had grown thicker after traveling all the way. At first glance, he looked like a bandit leader.
"Fourth Young Master, Young Madam, Linshan is back."
Song Guanzhou looked at him and felt happy. "You've been gone for more than half a month. Is everything going well on the road?"
Lin Shan nodded repeatedly, "Thank you for your concern, Madam. Don't worry, I've been traveling all over the country for many years, so this thousand miles is not a problem for me."
Pei An looked at the things piled under the eaves and asked, "Where did this come from?"
Lin Shan smiled and said, "I met an old friend along the way. He was also doing some mountain product business. I saw that the products were of good quality. Since it was the New Year, I decided to buy some."
Mountain products?
Song Guanzhou leaned over to look, and Linshan pointed and said, "Young Madam, we have medicinal herbs like ginseng, deer antlers, and Ganoderma lucidum. We also have furs, wood carvings, and stones. They are all old acquaintances, and the prices he offered are fair."
There are even quite a few embroidery items and folk toys, which are dazzling to the eyes.
Pei An smiled and said, "No wonder it's so lively. There seem to be so many rare and interesting things." Lin Shan listened and nodded, "I have been delayed for a few days because of this matter. I hope that the Fourth Young Master will forgive me."
I wouldn't blame him, it's just that Pei An has something to tell me.
After informing Song Guanzhou, Linshan ordered the maids in Shaohua Garden to help with the registration, and then followed Pei An to Yanlai Hall.
Along the way, the master and servant were silent.
It wasn't until they entered Lenghuo Qiuyan's Yanlai Hall and closed the door that Linshan finally reported, "Fourth Young Master, the journey was relatively smooth. Song Youan was extremely cautious when he left, but he was much more relaxed when he returned. These mountain products... were purchased by him, saying he was paying homage to the young lady."
But there were so many people in Shaohuayuan and they were all gossipy, so it was difficult for him to explain clearly.
Pei An listened and nodded slightly, "He's back too?"
Lin Shan nodded, "It's just that we're not traveling the same way. After buying these mountain products, he rented a carriage and didn't go with me."
"I think it's to avoid suspicion."
Lin Shan nodded, "Fourth Master, Song Youan talked to his subordinates about many things on his way back to the capital. Not much was useful, but—"
Lin Shan paused for a moment, waiting for Pei An to come, and then he whispered, "Fourth Young Master, I don't know whether it's true or not, and I can't tell. I can only say that you are here, so we are prepared."
"Just say it."
Lin Shan got the agreement, "He said that Prince He Jiang of Yong County secretly won over many important officials, such as the old man of the Sun family and the minister of the Wang family. Song Youan mentioned more than ten people, and I have memorized them all. I will recite them to you later."
"Okay, but how will he know?"
Lin Shan sighed, "Although Song Youan is just a servant of the Imperial Music Bureau, he has had a peaceful life over the years thanks to the support of Prince Yong. When He Jiang wanted to win over important officials, he would naturally help out."
"He's a pimp?"
"Not far away, Song Youan has raised quite a few young men for He Jiang. These old men usually look righteous, but in fact they are very much influenced by Song Youan. As a result, they have opened up quite a few connections for He Jiang."
"What's He Jiang's purpose in doing this?"
"I also asked about it. Song Youan hesitated for two days before speaking out. But... it's a little too shocking. I can't believe it."
"That's it, in detail."
Lin Shan nodded, mustered up his courage, and spoke more deeply, saying the important point, "General Jin dislikes the Eastern Palace and is trying to win over important officials. Firstly, he wants to build connections in the capital, and secondly... secondly, he wants to take over the government in the future."
Pei An was puzzled and looked at Lin Shan with a solemn face.
"He wants to abolish the Crown Prince and force His Majesty to appoint another crown prince?"
This is unrealistic!
The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace has been deeply rooted after years of operation. What's more, the emperor loves this legitimate eldest son!
The princes born to other concubines were not only much older than the Crown Prince, but their talents were also mediocre.
The emperor is autocratic, but he is also a wise ruler.
We will definitely not depose the Crown Prince unless he has committed any misconduct!
Thinking of this, Pei An felt that Jin Meng's ability seemed to be overestimated, but the next moment, what Lin Shan said broke his thoughts.
"Fourth Young Master, Song Youan was hesitant and incoherent in his speech. After he finished speaking to me, he parted ways. After much thought, I have pieced together that the general has no intention of abolishing the crown prince, but—"
"Don't waste time, tell me the truth. I will be able to tell the truth from the false."
"Yes!"
Lin Shan did not hesitate any longer. He approached Pei An and almost whispered, "The general wants to depose the Crown Princess and has also considered plotting against the emperor's eldest grandson. As for who he wants to support, from what Song Youan said hesitantly, it seems to be the Crown Prince's Duan Liangyuan!"
Duan Liangyuan, this is a title I haven’t heard for a long time.
In the Eastern Palace, this woman is considered a legend. She was able to be sent to the cold palace and then regain favor after plotting to murder the emperor's eldest grandson.
She also gave birth to the second grandson of the emperor for the prince.
Now that I am no longer with her to raise her, how can this blood relationship disappear completely?
"General Jin, you have a really big appetite!"
