Return of the Swallow

Chapter 204 Angered Old Cao

"What Cao Guozhang said is that the emperor’s grace is mighty, and we, as ministers, must do our best to serve the country, and we must never do anything ashamed of the emperor. The governor now bears the heavy responsibility of contacting the emperor, but we must not let him down. Entrusted by the emperor.

"Humans, energy is also limited, especially for people like Cao Guozhang who are in the Spring and Autumn Period, their brains will inevitably be confused. You are busy in contact with Tatar, and you can be distracted to come to our house, which is really impressive. , I just have to remind you kindly, don’t make a mistake in your account, you don’t know the priorities, and you have failed the emperor’s trust in you."

Qin Huaiyuan's voice was still as unhurried as usual, calm and elegant, with a faint smile when he listened carefully.

But in terms of words, every sentence was sharply poked on Cao Guozhang’s heart, holding him on Princess Tatar’s thigh to please Emperor Dayan, and taking advantage of his regaining momentum to step on the Qin family, it was ironic. thorough.

Cao Guozhang's face was red, his feet stopped, he turned his head and stared at Qin Huaiyuan angrily, and said with a trembling beard: "Okay, very good! Anping Hou Guo is really good-hearted. Xu is Anping Hou's old husband who died. Zi also forgot what attitude he should use when speaking to his father-in-law, right?"

Qin Huaiyuan smiled and said: "Cao Guozhang joked, I thought you no longer remember that I was still your son-in-law."

"You!" Cao Guozhang pointed at Qin Huaiyuan with his angry fingertips trembling fiercely, and Fang said in a long while, "You wait for me!"

"The head of the country is not in a hurry, I'm here, waiting for you." Qin Huaiyuan smiled with cold eyes.

Guozhang Cao only felt that all the scenery after his recovery was like a beauty stripped naked in Qin Huaiyuan's eyes, all beauty was gone, only humiliation remained.

At this time, a few people walked to the Yimen, and Cao Guozhang also saw Qin Yining standing in front of the Chuihuamen.

He didn't bother to pay attention to the Qin family's daughter, but Qin Yining's handsome appearance was really too similar to Qin Huai's childhood, not to mention that Qin Yining and the queen had a deep grievance.

Last time, the queen wanted to use the flesh of a beautiful woman to show her beauty. It was useless to become Qin Yining, but she killed two concubines in the palace.

Cao Guozhang did not agree with the Queen's practice.But his daughter spoiled herself, even if the queen did something wrong, Guo Zhang Cao was not willing to admit that it was the queen's fault. He attributed all the faults to Qin Yining.

If Qin Yining hadn't made the queen angry, how could the queen be like this?

Cao Guozhang looked at Qin Yining with his hand and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Miss Qin Si, who almost became my granddaughter-in-law back then."

Qin Yining had heard Qin Huaiyuan's tit-for-tat remarks against Cao Guozhang a long time ago. At this time, he naturally knew his position, and he just greeted with etiquette and laughed:

"Little women dare not climb high. Cao's family style is free and easy, and Mr. Cao's actions have inherited the essence of the professor in your house. The young woman is very simple and shallow, and has no courage and vision. She thinks that she is not worthy of Mr. ."

Cao Guozhang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

He naturally knew that the queen wanted to grant Qin Yining to his grandson Cao Chengjun in front of the emperor.

I don’t know what Cao Chengjun thinks. He actually did something about Qin Yining when he was in the palace. It is said that it is not only the speech tone|play, but also the hands and feet. This is the emperor's anger, and later specially He called into the palace and reprimanded him, saying that he was not strict in governing the family and his grandson was not good at teaching.

When Qin Yining mentioned it now, it was simply a blow to his face!

"Okay, okay, okay! It's really a tiger father without a dog girl, with sharp teeth and sharp mouths." Cao Guozhang sneered.

Qin Yining smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment Cao Guozhang, the little girl dare not be, compared to the head of the country and the empress, the little girl is willing to bow down."

Cao Guozhang's hands trembled, feeling that it was too ugly to quarrel with a little girl here, and he also consciously said that the father and daughter of "foxes" simply walked away.

It's useless to say anything, he just wants to kill them now!

"Excuse me not far, the head of the country will go slowly." Qin Huaiyuan smiled and saluted.

Qin Yining also led the people to salute.

Cao Guozhang walked very fast under the crown, looking at his back, as if he had fled.

Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan kept watching, until everyone was far away, the servants closed the door, and the figure of Cao Guozhang was no longer seen, Qin Yining chuckled.

The second master wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said anxiously: "How can this be good? Sister Yi, can you still laugh? Isn't it a crime to just talk like that?"

Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan looked at each other.

Qin Yining smiled and said, "Second Uncle, don’t panic. Even if we treat Cao’s family with courtesy, they should still bully our family. I just heard what he meant. Things are pushing on my father and you?"

The second master nodded and said: "The household department has been short of money for many years. In fact, our court has long had such unhealthy trends. Many officials borrowed money from the household department and took the IOU to press the account at the household department. I didn’t see any silver in the next IOU. The court used money to fight wars, and the emperor needed money to find talents and craftsmen. With such a calculation, Guo Zhang Cao wanted to use this matter to pierce our hearts.”

"He knows how to think, and use this matter to say that my father is not doing things well. When the court is using money, the emperor must be more concerned about this matter. If my father is pushed out, I am afraid the situation will not be good."

Qin Yining frowned in worry.The appearance of worry is different from that of the person who dared to confront Cao Guozhang face to face.

Qin Huaiyuan shook his head, "This is called a closed-door disaster from the sky. I have saved my heart to return to hermitage, Yanju fishing, only waiting to accompany the emperor to coexist and die, but people still take the initiative to come to the door. Second brother, You don't have to worry, even if I kneel down and beg him now, they won't be soft on us. I did say a lot of things under impulse today, but it was a lot easier to say, but it's hard for you to be tired and implicated in it. "

The second master waved his hand and said: "Whatever the eldest brother said, even if there is no such incident, we are still a family. Your business is my business. For those who want to harm us, if they have a heart to harm others, how can they find excuses? Yes, not bad this time."

Qin Huaiyuan smiled bitterly, without the high spirits in front of Cao Guozhang.

At this moment, he collapsed his shoulders tiredly, and he was no different from the person who was always upright as a mountain in the past.

The father, daughter, uncle and nephew led the people into the Chuhua Gate and walked straight to the gate of Cixiao Garden. Qin Huaiyuan sighed and said, "The emperor is relying on him. He naturally wants to take advantage of him now to harm our house. The situation is over, the emperor’s temperament, as long as Guo Zhang Cao gave him some hope and said that Tatar might come to help, even if the emperor immediately ordered my life, the emperor would not hesitate. I am really..."

The second master almost shed tears when he heard the words.

For many years, Qin Huaiyuan has worked hard for the country, devoted himself to the political affairs of the country, and he did not expect that he would have fallen so far. Not only was he deprived of office and forced to think about it, he was also deceived by dogs in Pingyang!

Qin Yining looked at Qin Huaiyuan and the second master worriedly.

She knew that for the people who had been loyal to the court for a lifetime, it was really sad to be suppressed by the emperor's connivance Cao Guozhang. This kind of thing cannot be solved by a few words.

Qin Yining had to smile: "Father and second uncle, don't worry. I don't think you will lose control of this matter. After all, Guozhang Cao has no evidence and can't go to the emperor to play his father. As long as we can't play, we will pay. If you have time, you can always think of a way."

Qin Yining smiled. The warm smile made people feel like sunflowers in the sun, which made people feel full of vitality and hope.

Qin Huaiyuan smiled and shook his head, without saying much, and entered the second door.

This kind of thing can only be self-knowledge. Qin Yining knew that no matter how much persuasion, it would be useless, so he followed the old lady.

At this time, the female relatives gathered in the house of the old lady.

Seeing Qin Huaiyuan's return, Mother Qin hurriedly went back to the room, and personally lifted the bead curtain at the door for Qin Huaiyuan, the second master and Qin Yining, while Jixiang picked up the yarn clip inside. Bamboo curtains.

Upon entering the house, the servant immediately lowered the gauze curtain to isolate the mosquitoes that might fly into the house.

The old lady saw Qin Huaiyuan and hurriedly sat up.

"Brother Meng, what the hell did Guo Zhang Cao come for? Did something happen again? I think if you don't stop him today, he will bring someone in and ransack his home."

"No, isn't it all right?" Qin Huaiyuan sat down beside the old lady. "You don't have to worry about it, it's not a big deal. It's just that now you have to spend money in wars, and the Ministry of Households can't make money. I have turned up some old things when I was the prime minister. Maybe I want to count all the money that I lost on my head. But they don’t have definite evidence, so it’s fine for the time being."

For the time being?

Hearing these words, the old lady turned blue in anger, and she couldn't breathe well.

Mother Qin, who was standing next to the old lady, hurriedly helped the person to lie down, softly persuaded, and fed her saliva, the old lady's face was slightly better.

"Isn't this going to perish our Qin family? Brother Meng is a clean and honest official, so how could he do such things as greedy for ink! This is called the crime of wanting to add to it.

With the words of the old lady, the whole house of children and family members couldn't help crying anxiously.

Now their home is a tree collapsed. After Qin Huaiyuan was forced to go to an official position, the people who had been close to him in the past are no longer moving. Everyone knows in their hearts that they don’t bother each other. Now that such a big thing has happened, I want to hope. Who is willing to help Qin Huaiyuan say something, that is simply harder.

However, Guozhang Cao now has power again and is the dominant family in the court. Wouldn't he take the opportunity to seek revenge?

Whoever serves as an official in the court has the power to speak.

And now the second master is just an official who doesn't care about the Ministry of Rites, and Qin Huaiyuan has no official position again.

Their Qin family now has no one to speak for them in the court!

Everyone's expressions were miserable.

When everyone was silent and the old Taijun and Sun cried silently, Qitai's voice suddenly came from outside.

"Master Hou, Master Hou!"

Qin Huaiyuan stood up and looked out the screen window.

Seeing Qitai standing under the corridor, the anxiety on his face was very clear under the light.

"what's up?"

"Master Hou, the prince came to visit and collided with Cao Guozhang in front of the door. The two of them verbally collided, and they were scolding at this meeting. Go and see!"
