費了許多周折，才讓父親足夠信任自己的能力，黎絳洵在成為父親助力的同時，也周旋於各方勢力，不求多大的從龍之功，便不會成為明顯的標靶。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOUeh4IbJL
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1G0DvkgXV
雖然並不容易，中間也會出紕漏，不過確實穩定地走向未來天子那方。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbYhu2605b
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPKO8miVAm
經年累月，也成功說服父親多加思考，要留有轉圜餘地。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wMb5dbNcz
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoWadLMQzz
母親先察覺到自己個性上的改變，後來父親也越發倚重黎絳洵，甚至想讓兒子子承父業、走上官途。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMWlS1sa9u
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijVlkM5wVX
要讓所有人都相信自己無意仕途，那並不容易。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsNYJEYRUv
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVG21K2c0c
比起勤讀經典，黎絳洵花更多時間在與母親學習經商之道。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfPdr4DXTm
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQs0xyzHzT
士農工商，唯有讀書高，商者為末流，黎絳洵的選擇，致使所有人都以為他癡愚不堪，暗地裡沒少被嘲諷。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZvGPZlrM7
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHJpZF9b6o
實際上，黎絳洵卻是為了未來早做考量，幾年黨爭，民生凋蔽，新皇固然需要清除舊勢力，以立威信，卻也需要大筆資金支持休生養息，是以最初幾年，即便為官清廉剛正，也難升官，因為操之過急而兵行顯著的人不少，比起權，錢更能穩定掌握在手中。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTTC1vp6m6
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOI55oIYfG
離塵埃落定尚有距離，倒也差不離多少。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjycwuHColF
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ed6OOI6FY
也該是時候走下一步了才對。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjIDPZKK7J
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4tK3BRTtx
只是在母親喟嘆著兒子長大了時，黎絳洵隨口一提，將話題導向指腹為婚的言府千金時，才經由母親提醒，想起未婚妻小自己數歲，如今還未及笄，提前過府，恐於名聲有礙。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBZI5Go0np
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2AZuT6tiX
儘管每日回房就寢前，總要清點一次的聘禮，只增不減，黎絳洵終是惆悵。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLXIHYwtER
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiF0AKeLbhE
前世日日得見的妻子，如今空有婚約在身，卻難以見上一面。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3c9kdBtgr
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRyqZpuYBW
無論如何，現在能為妻子做的，首要就是改善妻子在言府的待遇。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwS6NFomGB
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2dFN6TwuZ
為了不給人留下把柄，前幾年都未曾探聽過關於妻子的事情，好似他並不在意一般。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2WYguRSSV
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4V44lWQWQ
當黎絳洵開始有意無意和母親聊起未婚妻的事情，母親口中的未婚妻，卻與黎絳洵所知道的，相差甚遠。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5sQYCJ6oV
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyxZ7pM0NR
黎絳洵面上不顯，只是用杯蓋滑去浮沫的時間長了些。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwEGQnE6iV
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYc5q9yeDr
實際上心中遍生的疑慮完全無從壓抑。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVxg93sLfb
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tcGciarFg
結縭多年，黎絳洵也知道，嫁給自己，妻子不曾得到任何好處，反而是辛酸的時候多，前世黎家沒落，也沒有可圖的利益。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPU5hGLGhIt
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ctd8rlgui
倘若母親給的訊息和妻子所說的不同，是否可能只是言府太擅長做表面功夫，才讓妻子的身世與待遇傳不到外面？39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQdIKhYhRh
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81LQwZC7oE
妻子說自己是假嫡女，雖然被認在嫡夫人名下，與嫡夫人卻無血緣關係。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRB8tLZWwN
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHT0jVGubX
由於言府的情況特殊，反而妻子的說詞更有說服力。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVl5FMNzKS
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR4MPSa3Mk
百般斟酌過後，黎絳洵將這些年培育的親信，少量安插進言府，以便獲得即時資訊，讓妻子能過得好一些，必要的時候，甚至直接帶走妻子也無妨。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwecodXDUj
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGaPYXX46N
但……39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwG6DErfM6
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr03B0gkmf
聽完下屬彙報這段時間得到的資訊，黎絳洵獨自一個人坐在湖心亭的窗框，右手邊的石桌上，貪涼的貓睡得很熟，左手邊的湖水裡，隨手灑下的魚餌已被錦鯉吞吃殆盡。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkMT8LLIsy
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYLDDyMqYj
黎絳洵看著手裡的排簫，瀲灩湖光水色時不時晃進眼裡。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomzbEgnrwd
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8La2hpz6l
恐怕不能再逃避下去了。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KoCrHVm7G
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jZmQhggbD
必須親自確認。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9Dw7i7oqJ
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMZl6Y8eJH
排簫表面光滑，是他長年使用的。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLecX82oQKx
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaPlAerb6j
前世黎絳洵只是三天打魚、兩天曬網那樣學著，遑論練習，後來家道中落，更沒時間與機會，妻子聽信自己隨口提到的「會一點排簫」，特意替他準備了樂器，滿臉期待地等他，他拿妻子沒辦法，湊近吹嘴，奏出的聲響甚至比不過葉笛。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVywbLceBV
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbKs435tZW
不曉得妻子是真沒聽過正常的演奏，或者只是在安慰他，妻子拉住了黎絳洵自覺尷尬而放下的手肘，問他什麼時候再吹。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv1IS44W3A
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhfKBIvh0z
真想讓妻子聽見自己的練習成果。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s5LVMvHuY
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnf1pUdC5F
明明手中掌控了足以保護妻子的力量，能溫暖那雙冰冷的手，卻感到空虛。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZvdzi1XNW
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1Kda7khvj
探問出言府千金收了拜帖的宴席，這並不難。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXXdehnWfA
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaku4FMcbi
難的是，早在情感能淹過理智前，黎絳洵已經安排好出席事宜。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zZP4IKLij
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z17H4SMsi
當日的天氣，天朗氣清，沒有停辦的可能，也和與妻子的初見完全不同，陽光明豔，彷彿已經預言了顯而易見的結果。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGDCrQ1DTT
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4J6GDNG41
無意中拖延著各種瑣事，黎絳洵姍姍來遲的時候，門前只剩下一輛馬車還沒離開，黎絳洵原要直接走入朱門裡，仍是收回腳步，緩緩回頭，有個瘦弱的孩子跪在地上撿被車輪輾過的糕餅，吃得津津有味，如果不是綁在軛上的繩子、另一端栓綁著孩子的脖子，孩子應當只是個乞兒。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBdklqFLi4
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIosyH4nS25
蓬頭垢面的孩子，手上也不可能多乾淨，米白的糕餅碎屑被他蹭得灰撲撲的。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKTuaOChxQ
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6QeAkio0Q
如果只是一般乞兒，反而好處理，可看這狀況，恐怕是高門子弟的惡劣遊戲。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBtFBNr6xh
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIMi23Sx6N
湊巧也不湊巧，黎絳洵雖不願多生事端，但是今天──黎絳洵瞥了眼車輿上的家徽，那是言府專屬的家徽。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTUZieHdEG
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqIRFLawEC
遣了小廝去與休息的車夫探問，小廝還沒結束與馬伕的對話，幾個剛走出門的年輕侍女已經討論了起來，伴隨時不時瞅向男孩身上的目光。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiVtVtJPnH
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNnSk10ZdQ
「天啊，真的是……不都說言府是勳貴嗎？」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMhDwCHn2s
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsmJgq8UfJ
「你也看見了，他是真的在吃。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4s9WYKUh4
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFfluGYntB
「明明是長子，言府都不怕人說話的嗎？」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZU5KBDdsg1
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJ1GyMaZEu
「誰敢啊？怪只怪他偏偏是庶子。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ev56As9fJ
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpYKr3esFg
「唉，管家娘子還騙我說做通房多好呢，瞧瞧，都是謊話！」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKAX8hT32c
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23M5N58cJi
言府的庶長子嗎？39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHg49ybKhO
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHnL9Ob3JO
不能貿然出面，尤其不能是由自己出面。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrpEKmv06Y
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnhz60FFW8
小廝回來後給的資訊，和適才侍女的話一樣，這孩子是言府嫡夫人未過門之前、由通房誕下的庶長子，言曇岫。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3XNZ9UA5f
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qWwQXthDY
言曇岫的事情，因為黎絳洵沒有交代過，因此也不曾傳入他耳中。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5O7VD7B0D
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBPBwOcpcQ
入席未久，黎絳洵已然得到了關於言曇岫的所有訊息。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKmX8vwQH2
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16oLgSeLvY
那是個命運乖舛的孩子，言府狀況較為複雜，且親戚關係涉及大多數喊得上名字的世家，因此黎絳洵沒有意願插手，他不是什麼正人君子，救不下那麼多人。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKikZS9bQz
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDPcYv7R2s
但言曇岫的身世，卻和妻子自述的一模一樣。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOMJbSSFMA
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CEmxN9I9e
妻子對黎絳洵說過，作為通房的生母都喊她「綉綉」，因此在兩人關係稍微拉近後，妻子便提出讓黎絳洵不要叫她「曇橋」的希望。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxrGeOQVpA
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDBWLQ6oWH
黎絳洵對言談岫所知不多，可能性很多，況且他和妻子相知的時間並不長，沒來得及說盡身邊的所有事情，也屬正常，要是關係不親密，倒也沒有一一介紹所有手足的必要。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzqCFKA6DJ
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqS9xtrES3
只是「岫」和「綉」同音，也許不是巧合，所謂愛屋及烏，妻子未曾多提的這位庶弟，在能力範圍內相幫，也算是讓妻子娘家多留一分支持妻子的人脈。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaoumrE3Rj
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ydRZq1ZqP
這次舉辦宴席的主人家面子很大，貴賓眾多，少不得要在歌舞昇平中應酬一番。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOe1E8YL1q
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uFKtiaJx4
雖然並非黎絳洵本性，前世和今生加起來的歷練也不是虛的，即便在勢如水火的賓客之間，黎絳洵也能在客客氣氣的情況下，兩不得罪；弄僵的氣氛在黎絳洵這邊，總是三言兩語就被帶開。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcNGA6WoIz
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSn3I8fzaT
由於黎絳洵此前並未出席類似宴飲，認得他的人不多，很快就成為眾人的閒談焦點，即便得知黎絳洵就是他們當初訕笑過的那位，仍是有不少夫人小姐藉男性親戚之口、有意無意問起黎絳洵是否已有家室。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVaEGuYumn
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQPBT4GMzo
畢竟誰說如今從商，未來就不可能考官？39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1POkfc6El
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUz3mloAbHT
尤其在場的人精不少，要真的看不出來黎絳洵的潛力，那是沒可能的。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4PSaMaLIr
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonQI89kILB
觥籌交錯、絲竹雅樂，席上歡聲笑語未輟，黎家與言府指腹為婚的事情，很快傳入了有心人耳裡，面對時不時被帶偏、導向言府的話題，黎絳洵佯裝沒有察覺、且對言府一無所知。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeGwq26BNE
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSNz13rWZ5
果然關於言府的所有負面傳聞，很快都集中到了他這裡。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85CI93qHrN
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGFbHypkuo
言家千金、他的未婚妻言曇橋，無論是所作所為或是個性，都與他認識的妻子沒有半點相似之處。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfAFQ1BQjA
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jRzPticHa
言曇橋絕非什麼飽受欺凌的苦命女子，家中帶她甚是縱容，而驕矜大小姐的作派，通常在並無大事發生的情況下，不可能忽然就小家碧玉起來；若是傳言屬實，言曇橋根本不可能放下言府的金銀財帛，拋棄錦衣玉食的生活，身無長物地嫁入落敗的黎家。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qJxjBmFv7
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRMXrNiFss
更何況當時是妻子主動求他履行婚約的。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKD8x8eTvn
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9rBIEEZsl
那天陰暗的天色彷彿不曾有過陽光，滂沱大雨將站在門前的妻子全身打溼，狼狽不堪的模樣，黎絳洵沒有遺忘過。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzxpfZjHSH
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76Jh6NxtRd
黎絳洵知道他必須面對現實。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt04Zf9Hvrr
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvasF1E860M
言曇橋不是他心裡想的人。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOxV9COHSu
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZotbD14OVS
雖然早有預感，也要等到事實擺在眼前，無法推翻，他才能徹底放棄。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMQkgMgQoG
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYG0DCuxIme
黎絳洵原不是什麼固執的人，幾乎沒有堅持過幾件事，要放手更難。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuliSJU0Xo
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpm8mhwQDFW
如果妻子的事情，確實只是他的夢境，至今他所作的一切，究竟有什麼意義？39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt96iWMJsR
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeE27uEY25
沒有人能回答他。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoMemCHWuW
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUed9mKnW1e
要是關於未來的事情也是假的，那他這幾年的努力，根本無法讓黎家倖免於難。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiQ8ppKkQ5
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0H8m7RO3f
黎絳洵裝作不勝酒力，藉口離席，說是要藉由走路，散去酒氣。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnG93bGTpN
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNoI8Sih8N
主人家庭園雅致，花匠精心養護的繽紛花木，與假山假水相映成趣，只是黎絳洵無心欣賞，他漫步其間，實則在思考如何得知女席狀況，甚至是親眼見上言曇橋一面。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6daEuhGbG
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfEjkFXl1V
打斷這一切的是撞入懷中的衣香鬢影。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraFkYKTfcZ
