Do you know: I’m Xu Jiazi

Ningyuan Houfu

fuyao courtyard

Youqing held a few pieces of paper and read carefully,

"Young master, I am related to Prince Yan and the Qiu family, the retainers of Prince Yan's palace. I have found out about their business, address, and family members."

After Gu Tingyu put down the brush in his left hand, he picked up the paper on the table and looked at it carefully before blowing it gently.

"Well, Youqing, pick out some pieces of fine brocade and jade from the warehouse, and send them to Prince Yan's Mansion together with this letter, using my post from Ningyuan Hou Mansion."

"Yes, sir."

After washing his brush, Gu Tingyu strolled out of the study and came to Bai's yard.

Bai, who was teasing her eldest grandson, glanced at him: "Has it been written?"

"Mother, it's done."

"Well, come and see your son."

Facing Pingmei's grateful eyes, Gu Tingyu walked over with a smile.

"Oh, I'm so happy to see Daddy."

Listening to Bai's words, Gu Tingyu looked at his son, and he was grinning with his baby teeth exposed.

"By the way, Yu'er, these days, I see that Grandma Kong is very good at teaching girls. The girls from the two families she has taught have changed so much!"

"Mother, do you want to invite me over?"

"It's time for Yi'er to learn some rules."

Gu Tingyi, who was beating pills in the backyard, wrinkled his nose.

North of Xiangzhou City,

Rong Xian was sweating and fanning himself with his clothes under the tree.

Sweat dripped down and his wounds ached.

But it hurts to wipe the sweat off and touch the wound.

"I should wait until the injury heals before coming out."

"This, it's too hot. Why can't you even see a village nearby! I'm so thirsty!"

"Sir, why don't we go back?"

Rong Xian had a hesitant look in his eyes, and then he looked around.

"Master?"

The young man of the Rong family looked at his young master's straight eyes and looked over, only to find something round in some low fields in the distance.

Looking at the watermelon, it seemed to be very sweet. The boy's throat rolled and he smacked his lips.

"Go and pick one for me, young master."

The boy then ran quickly towards the melon field.

Rongxian was very thirsty, so he didn't wait and followed him with his horse.

In the melon field,

The boy shouted: "Master, Master, this is ripe."

As he said this, the boy stood up, looked around and said, "Where are the people looking at the melon fields?"

"No matter what he does, we just have a free meal if there is no one."

And not far away,

There were seven or eight sunburnt-skinned teenagers, wearing only pants. As they walked, they were being whipped with a tree branch by an old man wearing a bamboo hat to protect himself from the sun. The old man also kicked him randomly.

"Let you go into the river! Bang!"

"hiss!"

"Let you go into the river! Bang!"

"Ouch!"

"Master, I won't dare next time!"

"And next time, I can't kill you. Snap!"

"hiss."

The old man was just about to shoot the next one.

This kid just cried

"Master, I was wrong."

The old man raised the branch bitterly, but in the end he kicked it instead of pulling it down.

Just as he was about to change his target, the young man hurriedly said:

"Master, someone stole the melon!"

The old man looked at it and said:

"You thieves are really stealing melons. The three of you are the strongest. Get over here and ambush the horses! The five of you come with me."

Half an hour later,

Rongxian sat on the ground and burped with satisfaction.

"Indeed."

He spat out a watermelon seed.

"Why is this melon not as sweet as the one in the palace? Hiccup."

"Sir, it's so delicious, hehe."

"No ambition."

Before he finished speaking, someone suddenly shouted in the melon field: "Catch the melon thief!"

The master and servant got excited and quickly got up and ran out of the melon field.

"Mount, mount!"

"Sir, we have money."

"Let's talk about it after we get on the horse!"

The master and servant had just left the melon field and approached the horses.

Three sturdy young men suddenly rushed out of the grass nearby and hugged the two of them.

Rongxian's master and servant were beaten to pieces.

After a while,

The old man ran over with several other people. He looked at the naked young man who was walking around and tied up with his pants and nodded:

"Well done."

Just after praising him, the old man said:

"Tsk, why are you so cruel? Your face is swollen!"

Looking at Rong Xian on the ground, the old man said:

"Hey, hey, little official, don't cry. Why are you crying?"

Seeing Rong Xian's appearance, the boy walking the bird looked at his companion and said:

"You shouldn't have hit him in the face."

"That's what my cousin taught me before he left. Besides, he was injured before."

"My uncle said, learn it and apply it."

After finally being comforted by the old man, Rongxian's servant said:

"Old man, we have money, so we can buy the melons."

Looking at Rongxian's mount and clothes, the old man sighed and said:

"You guys go back to the castle and get some medicine to reduce swelling and pain."

"This little official, come with me."

The untied Rongxian followed and came to a melon-watching shack.

The old man chatted with Rongxian for a few words. When they heard that Rongxian was going to join the army, the young men looked at him with disgust. The meaning was obvious: Is it just you?

"I wonder which family in Xiangzhou the little official is from?"

The boy on the side said proudly:

"My father-in-law, we are from the Fuchanghou Mansion in Bianjing."

The old man nodded and said, "Where is your mansion?"

Boy: "Uh"

"My sister is your Majesty's most beloved concubine."

Rongxian looked at the surprised expressions on the faces of several young people around him, and snorted quite proudly:

"I see that you guys are quite organized. How about joining the army with me, Rongxian, and I'll protect your future?"

"We have our own uncle to work for, why should we follow you?"

The teenagers said quite proudly.

"Don't be surprised in Yanei, our family also has some relationship with Bianjing. The patriarch's surname is Zhu, and his uncle is the Yongyi Marquis who is setting up a flag in the north."

"What?!!"

Rongxian almost jumped up, grabbed the old man's arm and said affectionately:

"My father-in-law, your family is actually related to Yongyi Houfu? Me, me, brother Jing and I are closer than brothers!"

The old man looked like I had never heard of him.

"Don't believe me? Your surname is Zhu, is it called Zhu Qinghu? It looks like"

Listening to Rongxian's description, the old man's expression gradually changed.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the old man sighed:

"It turns out that the flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple! Let's go back to the castle and have a meal."

When a patrol is looking for someone along the official road,

Rongxian was already very drunk at Zhujiabao and said with tears on his face:

"Uncle, you don't mind if I call you uncle. You don't know. I, Rong Xian, was slapped in the face, but I didn't give in! Qiu Keli, a beast who has been stabbed a thousand times. How dare I penetrate his anus?" Talk about me, talk about my sister."

"Brother, I call you brother. Isn't that a bit different? Look, the corner of the eye was beaten by the Ruyang family, and the corner of the mouth was beaten by the Jinghai family!"

"Drunk? How could I, Rongxian, be drunk! Have another bowl. Vomit~~~~"

On the way back to Bianjing,

Everyone on the road was exhausted.

Some horses were already paralyzed from exhaustion and were sold by Qingyun to a roadside shop.

Qingyun bought another long curtain hat and a bamboo hat to protect from the sun, and handed the long curtain hat to the two rescued girls.

You hour (after 6 p.m.)

The Bianjing Forbidden Army Cavalry, which does not care about horse power at all, has found Qingyun and others.

Then he was escorted back to Beijing.

After entering the capital,

Qingyun, Alan and the others were about to return to Yongyihou Mansion, but were stopped by the Gao family's son.

"Mr. Gao, this is."

Looking at Qingyun, the Gao family member hesitated to speak.

Alan looked at this man in confusion, Qingyun said clearly in his heart:

"Don't worry, young master, our Yongyi Hou Mansion doesn't know anything."

"Thank you brave man. I will give you a generous gift from my Gao family in the future."

After saying that, the young master of the Gao family looked back. A woman wearing a curtain hat came over and said with a dry throat:

"I also ask the noble servant of the Marquis Mansion to deliver a message to the Duke of Qi's Mansion for the little girl, just say."

"Girl, do you recognize Mr. Chai Jinchai?"

The curtain cap shook violently.

Qingyun said: "Young Master Chai and my young master hit it off immediately. I will go and deliver a message to Mr. Chai Jin."

"Thank you, strong man. When you arrive at Chai's house, you only need to say the word 'Zhengzheng'."

Chai family mansion,

Not far from Nan Lecture Hall Lane,

It is closer to the palace gate than the Rong family.

Qingyun didn't even change his clothes before he came to the heavy door with a lantern with the word "Chai" hanging on it.

"Dong dong dong!"

Soon the concierge ran to the second door.

Less than half a quarter of an hour later, Chai Jin and Chai Bo ran out in disheveled clothes, grabbing Qingyun's arms from left to right and saying:

"Is this true? Zhengzheng, has she come to Bianjing? Where is she?"

"Young masters, don't be anxious. You should already be in the palace by now."

"Prepare your horses! Hurry!!!"

The steward of the Chai family on the side said: "Master, we can't enter the palace like this!"

Then the two quickly changed their clothes, patted Qingyun on the shoulder, mounted their horses and ran towards the palace.

Later again,

Xingguofang,

The Duke's Mansion of Qi State,

Princess Pingning also got on the Qi family's carriage a little anxiously, looked at Qi Heng in a daze and said:

"Brother Heng, come up quickly!"

"Mother, why are you so anxious?"

Princess Pingning said:

"Brother Heng, when I entered the palace and saw your cousin from the Chai family, remember to behave well, do you understand?"

"Yes, mother."

Jinyang Mountain Village,

Buzz~

Buzz~

Flies that loved the stench flew over the carrion and blood.

far away,

Officials from Qizhou Imperial City Department were holding torches and lanterns to sort out the corpses.

Someone was feeding water bottles to the thieves who had been thirsty for most of the day.

His legs were broken and he sat on the ground. The arms were tied to the body again to form a circle, and the mouth was blindfolded.

These thieves could not move at all and could only sit and wait to die.

"When did the Imperial City Secretary of Bianjing become so powerful? Look at this wound, tsk, he is really violent."

"Fortunately it's from our side, otherwise"

"If we have the chance to recruit a few over, they might be able to save our lives."

"Have you counted? How many living people plus corpses are there?"

"About one hundred and seventy."

At this time,

Outside the village gate, a group of people came here.

Zhaomeifeng rode his horse with a numb face and showed off the Huangcheng Division's badge.

Then he led a group of people into the village.

Zhaomei Feng frowned.

Holding the torch and looking around, he finally stopped at the wall where the corpses were placed.

He picked up the arrow shaft as thick as his middle finger on the ground and looked at it carefully.

Gao Yunqing behind Zhaomeifeng said:

"Tou, why do you look so familiar?"

Zhaomei Feng didn't say anything, but pointed at the arrow hole left on the wall with the arrow shaft.

Gao Yunqing said: "Hiss, it's so deep, just like before in Yang."

Zhaomeifeng waved his hand to stop him from talking:

"Just know."

Gao Yunqing swallowed, followed behind Zhaomeifeng and whispered:

"Boss, it couldn't have been done by soldiers of the Hou family."

Zhao Meifeng walked, poking arrow holes continuously while checking the deceased's injuries and said:

"Yeah, almost."

Then he checked the armor and weapons on the ground. Looking at the strong and strong body on the ground, Zhaomei Feng touched the palm of the deceased.

Gao Yunqing followed suit and said:

"Tsk, those who practice hard enough are much better than the ones outside Yangzhou."

Zhaomeifeng looked at the armor of the Northern Liao Kingdom on the ground and nodded:

"Now, the excitement will be great."

What the Great Zhou gave to the Jin Kingdom was not the armor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but imitations of those from the Northern Liao Kingdom.

Even if he is seen in this way, Beiliao will think that he was defeated in the previous battle and was captured without his helmet and armor.

But now it appears in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

At this time, an official from Qizhou Imperial City came over and said:

"It's a sign that Yanzhou's pawn is outside the village."

"Let them come in and unload their weapons after they come in. I'll ask them one by one."

"yes."

After speaking, Zhaomeifeng raised his chin, and Gao Yunqing hurriedly found a table and chairs to prepare for taking notes.

after awhile,

Zhaomeifeng stood with his former colleagues kneeling on the ground, stared into their eyes, and asked lightly:

"Tell me, who just went to Prince Yan's Mansion to report the news."

Inside the palace

In a low side hall,

Zhao Zilong sat in front of Yelu Falcon with a kind face.

"I believe Mr. Yelu must know something."

Yelv Falcon said calmly:

"Of course I know."

"Then what do you think?"

"Before, I and Bai Gao from Bei Liao attacked the horse breeding land of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Now that the Great Zhou Dynasty is trading with the Kingdom of Jin, I have nothing to think about."

"Master Yelu is open-minded, let's talk about the war situation between Bei Liao and Jin Kingdom?"

"."

"You also know that even if you don't tell us, we also have channels from the Kingdom of Jin to know."

"go ahead."

You hour (6 p.m.)

Xingguofang

Gu Tingyu's personal chief attendant Youqing came to Fuyao Yard.

"Sir, the letter and things were not sent out."

Gu Tingyu frowned and said, "Why, they won't accept it?"

"No, young master, Prince Yan's residence is surrounded by the Imperial Army."

"What?"

Gu Tingyu looked surprised, but then he calmed down and said:

"Go, take father's post, find an old friend in the military, and ask what's going on."

"Officer, what's wrong?"

Hearing Pingmei's voice, Gu Tingyu smiled and said:

"It's okay, by the way, ma'am, are cousin Zhu Qinghu and his life-and-death robes among the Forbidden Army?"

"Here, I was tortured by Doctor Yu for many days. Now I have almost recovered and have started to go on duty."

Gu Tingyu immediately explained what had just happened and said:

"Ask them too and see why."

"Okay, I'll ask Qing Zhi to go to the Zhu family, and then ask the Ni family's sister-in-law to ask."

"Qingxia, ask Qingzhi to come over."

"Yes, madam."

Jinghaihou Mansion

The family is having dinner,

Lady Bao, the Marquis of Jinghai’s wife, said:

"Come on, from the Wulang family, come to me. Normally I feel that you and I have a good connection. You know what I want to eat better than I do."

Mrs. Pan's face was stunned, then she came to Mrs. Jinghaihou's side with her handkerchief in hand, knelt down and said:

"Mother-in-law."

"Come on, let this clumsy woman go aside, you come."

After Mrs. Pan asked the servant girl to tie her sleeves,

He picked up a piece of fish meat with a smile.

"It's my mother-in-law. My daughter-in-law remembers that you like to eat this mandarin fish the most."

"Too fishy."

"Oh, then you can eat this sausage stuffed with meat paste and spices."

Ignoring Mrs. Pan who was holding slices of meat, Mrs. Jinghai Houfu said:

"When will your brother and my nephew from the Dalang family and the Bao family be promoted to the left wing commander?"

Madam Bao from Marquis Jinghai's residence said, "Mother-in-law, I said it will be here in the next few days."

"Okay, we have to prepare gifts by then! Right!"

The eldest ladies in the third and fourth bedrooms of the Huyan family all said so.

Hu Yanjiong's father, Hu Yanhai, the commander of the Forbidden Army's Tiger Wing Navy, looked at the lady standing picking up vegetables with some distress. He wanted to speak, but Madam Pan stopped her with her eyes.

Mrs. Jinghai Hou glanced at Mrs. Pan and said:

"It's cold. Do you have a look?"

Mrs. Pan didn’t say that the meat crumbs and spices lining the intestines were cold to begin with. Instead, she squatted down and said:

"Yes, mother-in-law."

Mrs. Pan quickly put down the slices of meat and picked up a chopstick of vegetables:

"Mother-in-law, you."

"Let's eat that piece of meat."

Mrs. Pan kept the stiff smile on her face and continued to fill the intestines with the meat.

Miss Bao said:

"Sister-in-law, do you really not understand, or are you deliberately trying to embarrass your mother-in-law? You don't know what she likes to eat?"

"Why do you want to get your brother's business and your tail is so high?"

"Don't be too proud, Brother Bao is about to be promoted!"

"Some people are just shameless. If it weren't for your Pan family, why would our Huyan family have lost so much income!"

"You are the daughter-in-law of the Huyan family. You don't think about your husband's family, and you always think about your mother's family!"

"I think the marriage between our family and the Xu family should be broken up."

The eldest ladies in the third and fourth bedrooms of the Huyan family looked at each other, and when their eyes met, there was a knowing meaning:

'Only when the fifth house is separated and the fifth house is outside, without the support of Marquis Yongyi, can it be at the mercy of the first house.'

Hu Yanhai put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at his sister-in-law.

He looked at his father and elder brother again, his chest rose and fell several times, and finally he said nothing.

The smile on Madam Pan's face disappeared. After putting the slices of meat into Mrs. Jinghaihou's bowl, she continued to pick up the mutton in the soup.

"Mother-in-law, be careful, this mutton is a little hot."

Mrs. Jinghaihou continued:

"We are from the Wulang family. The imperial edict has assigned your family to do errands, but for some business, you still have to worry about the Bao family and Xi!! Do you want to burn me to death?"

"Snapped!"

Mrs. Jinghaihou stood up, slapped her chopsticks on the table, and slapped Mrs. Pan on the face:

"You want to murder your mother-in-law?"

Mrs. Pan immediately covered her face, with crystal tears welling up in her eyes. She had never suffered such injustice since she was a child!

However, the mother-in-law is the elder, and if she talks back, she will be disobedient and unfilial.

Hu Yanhai suddenly stood up and said:

"Mother, what on earth are you going to do?"

"Wu Lang, my mother has her own considerations when it comes to teaching her younger siblings. Sit down."

Hu Yanhai looked at his brother with a straight face, then looked at Marquis Jinghai:

"father?"

"Tomorrow, your fifth house will sort out the canal transporters who were assigned to you in the third and fourth houses and hand them over to your eldest brother."

"Father, you can just tell your child about this directly. Why do you need to do this?"

"Who wants to spit out the meat that has been put into his mouth?" said the little lady with a pout.

"Deng Deng"

Mrs. Jinghaihou sat down and knocked on the rice bowl, indicating that Mrs. Pan should continue to pick up the food.

"Why are you crying? Crying in mourning? Forget it, I can't afford a daughter-in-law like you. You go and kneel in the ancestral hall."

Mrs. Jinghaihou continued without even looking at Mrs. Pan: "Everyone, eat, don't let her lose your appetite."

Hu Yanhai stood up with his chest heaving:

"eat?"

"Eat shit!"

"Bang! Bang!"

"ah!"

After Hu Yanhai kicked the dining table over, he ignored the others and took Mrs. Pan's hand and left.

"You evildoer! You traitor!"

"You bastard, what are you going to do?"

Hu Yanhai stopped and said:

"I will go to the ancestral hall and kneel."

"You two evil-doing couple, wait until I go to Shu Zongzhengsi to punish you for the serious crime of disrespecting your own mother and disobeying your mother-in-law!"

"Go away, mother! Let's see which one is more important, your memorial or His Majesty's errand!"

"you!"

Just as he was about to walk out, a woman was helped into the hall.

She shouted in a stern tone: "Aunt, sister, our master has been captured!"

"What?"

"Who dares to arrest our brother!"

The eldest lady of the Ruyang Marquis Mansion was a little shocked when she saw the mess in the hall. She didn't know whether to ask what happened to the Huyan family or to talk about her own family affairs.

Hu Yanhai was about to leave for the ancestral hall, but was pulled back by Mrs. Pan.

Seeing his wife's eyes watching the excitement, Hu Yanhai glanced at the group of people in the hall and then stopped at the door.

"Speak slowly!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuoriuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Today, the master did not come back to the house, and the servants did not come back to report the news, so I sent the housekeeper to ask outside the camp gate."

"As a result, the gate of the Tianwu Army camp has been sealed, making it impossible to get in or get out."

"The steward was quite clever. He spent some money and asked the soldiers at Xuanhua Gate and Dongshui Gate. Only then did he find out that our family was bound into the city by the palace guards with golden armor and golden guns."

As she said this, the lady began to cry.

Mrs. Jinghaihou asked with a panicked expression:

"This, this, this, what is going on! Is there someone who is jealous of our promotion in the Ruyang Marquis Mansion and is maliciously framing us?"

The eldest lady with three or four bedrooms was not from a high family background, and she also had relatives in Bianjing, but no one could find anyone to ask why the commander of the Forbidden Army was arrested.

Because the level and connections are not enough.

The little lady looked at everyone blankly:

"Who should I ask? Father-in-law, you."

Marquis Jinghai thought about retreating from the court that day, with only those from the Ruyang Marquis Mansion following him. He sighed and said:

"Then I'll show off my face and go ask."

As he spoke, he stood up and

In Jinghaihou's sight, his youngest son and his wife had already walked away.

On the way to the ancestral hall,

Hu Yanhai asked: "Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt. Sigh."

"What's wrong?"

"Ever since your Majesty gave me this errand at home, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law have become even more irritable! I have never seen them like this before."

"Then do you know how much income the big house has made in the past few months?"

"How many?"

"Hmph, just by turning the furs, ginseng, and dongzhu treasures given by the Jin Kingdom into money and handing them over to the treasury, Dafang ate a lot of the price difference. Do you think that everyone is like you and foolishly let the Pan family pay the market price? purchase?"

Mrs. Pan certainly knows how many good things the Jin Kingdom has given to Liaodong through state actions like this!

But from now on, these will all be five-bedroom apartments!

"In the future, I will still have to pay tribute to the palace with some good things."

"That's the way it is."

"Guanren, do you think this Xu family brother can make a profit for our house no matter how he beats people?"

"This is a coincidence."

"I don't care about anything else. I must marry Anmei and give the Xu family a satisfactory betrothal gift and wedding!"

After Mrs. Pan finished speaking, she turned her eyes and said:

"How about we stop kneeling down and just go find out information for our family?"

"Whose house are you going to?"

"Of course it's the Liang family!"

When the couple and the soldiers of the Tiger Wing Army arrived under the plaque of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, the large residence of the Liang family, they were told: Madam Wu had gone to Quyuan Street.

"Are you still looking for it?" Hu Yanhai asked.

"Go, talk to your future in-laws, and tell the Xu family what our brother Jiong is busy with."

The pawns of the Imperial City Division have already left Prince Yan's Mansion.

In the study,

"Your Majesty, what does this Imperial City Division pawn mean when he says he is going to Jinyang Mountain?"

"You are an aide, you ask me?"

"I am terrified!"

"Well, it seems to me that someone may have noticed something. Let them go and find out!"

"Your Majesty, you are really as smart as a demon, and your mind is like lightning! I am so stupid that I didn't think of this. If they go to find out, everything must be as usual."

"That's right! By the way, are the guards in the heart of Beiliao really as brave as you said?"

"My lord, I saw it with my own eyes!"

The two were talking,

A steward from the palace came in a hurry and shouted at the door:

"Your Majesty, the imperial edict has come from Bianjing. Please accept it."

The internal official Huaibao finished reading the imperial edict.

King Yan lowered his head to receive the imperial edict, and suddenly thought of Jinyang Mountain in his mind, and then said:

"Xiao Wang will leave for Beijing tomorrow!"

(Send someone to see how Jinyang Mountain is doing tonight!)

The internal official Huaibao looked at the palace guard next to him and said softly:

"Your Majesty, it's better to set off immediately!"

After hearing this, King Yan looked serious and said, "Then I, the King, will go change my clothes."

Huaibao said: "Come here. I will serve the prince and change his clothes."

"You! Presumptuous!"

Huaibao bowed and said: "Your Majesty, this is His Majesty's order. You must not be allowed to leave the sight of your slaves and several right-level soldiers."

The Yan Dynasty looked at the staff on the side and asked him to summon the royal soldiers.

The aide quickly retreated from the house,

Looking at the dusty soldiers wearing armor and holding swords all over the yard, looking up and down at his Bianjing Imperial Army, he scratched his face and said to himself:

"What did the prince say just now? Hiss"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was tied up with a rope by a strong imperial soldier.

That afternoon, several groups of powerful imperial guards galloped out of the city.

The whole Bianjing was thrown into chaos.

All kinds of news are circulated, either true or false.

Jiying Lane,

Shengjia, Shouantang.

Wang Ruofu, who had been asking for news for a long time in the hot weather, felt thirsty.

After taking a refreshing sip of ice cream cheese, Wang Ruofu sighed comfortably and said:

"Mom, I went to Feng's house and asked, something big happened~!"

The old lady looked at her and said kindly: "Madam, speak slowly."

"I don't know much about anything else. I just know that the Ruyang Hou family was tied into the palace by the palace guards."

Sheng Hong frowned and said, "What? Impossible. The leader of the Bao family is about to take a step forward. The officials are all going through the process. How could he be tied into the palace!"

Wang Ruofu tilted his head and said: "Hey! The nephew of the eldest relative of the Feng family is the head of the Xuanhua Gate. How can I be wrong after seeing it with my own eyes!?"

"this"

Mrs. Sheng said: "Didn't you say that there are two more batches going to the east? What are they going to do?"

"Mom, my natal sister-in-law's nephew entered the Imperial Academy in the same year. He was in front of His Majesty this afternoon. I didn't dare to say too clearly. I only know that one is going to pick up someone and the other is going to announce the decree."

At this time, a little female envoy announced:

"Old lady, Cuichan is back."

Upon hearing this, the old lady looked puzzled and said: "Let her come in."

After Cuichan entered the Shou'an Hall with a serious face, she took out the flat wooden box in her hand:

"Old madam, the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion asked the servant to deliver this."

Fang’s mother hurriedly handed it over.

The old lady opened the sealing wax on the wooden box, opened the sealing wax on the envelope in the wooden box, and looked at the ten lines by the candlelight.

Wei Shuyi stood behind Mrs. Wang, watching the movements of Sheng Hong and his wife in front of him, and looked at each other with Liu's mother.

After reading it, the old lady put the letter on the candle, ignited it, and put it into the incense burner. It turned into ashes in a short time.

When everyone saw this scene, they knew that something was serious.

Sheng Hong said: "Mother?"

The old lady said seriously:

"Cui Chan, go back and tell your eldest wife, just say that she knows."

"Yes, madam."

After Cuichan finished speaking, she bowed to the old lady and Sheng Hong and his wife and then left.

Then the old lady said:

"Notify the steward of the Sheng family's eldest house in Bianjing immediately! Our second house, the eldest lady, the shop in your dowry, all the transactions under the name of Hong'er and your concubine, as long as there is any relationship with the Ruyang Hou Bao family, Jinghai Hou eldest house, Yan All those related to the palace have been cut off! Prepare all the account books and documents for inspection, don’t lose them.”

Wang Ruofu looked at the old lady and said, "Mother, what about my natal family?"

"Send someone immediately to inform you, so as not to cause trouble for disciples."

at night,

On the streets of Bianjing, there were suddenly more servants from various houses.

Xingguofang

Ningyuan Houfu

Gu Tingyu has not received a reply from the Zhu family yet.

Mrs. Bai called him to the mistress's courtyard and read the letter that the Xu family asked Qingcao to send.

After Gu Tingyu read the letter,

After pondering for a while,

Suddenly I remembered the day when I was asking questions in Xu Zaijing's study.

Immediately, Gu Tingyu raised his head, looked at Pingmei and said, "I was tricked by Brother Jing!"

royal palace,

Under the guidance of the lantern in the hand of the inner officer,

Princess Pingning took Qi Heng to the side hall next to the queen's bedroom.

"Princess Princess, the Chai family girl is inside."

Princess Pingning smiled and nodded, and was about to open the door and go in.

I heard someone inside yelling:

"Zhengzheng, you have revealed your identity! This person from King Yan still dares to kidnap you? What is he going to do!!?"

"Maybe it's the gold and silver from the Chai family?"

There was some quietness in the hall.

"I think it's 80% likely that there will be a scene where a hero saves a beauty."

In the room, several people heard the sound outside the door and looked at each other. Chai Bo said, "Who is outside?"

Princess Pingning glanced at Qi Heng proudly and then opened the door.

Qi Heng bowed his hands outside and said, "I've met my cousin."

Chai Zhengzheng looked at Princess Pingning, recalled for a moment, then knelt down and said, "I've met my cousin."

Then she looked at the young man next to Princess Pingning and said, "Are you Brother Heng?"

Xu Zaijing sat quietly in the front hall of the Xu family's reception room.

Listening to my mother and Mrs. Wu talking about what happened in the past few days,

Mrs. Wu was stunned for a moment and looked at Xu Zaijing several times.

His eyes were full of love, wishing that Xu Zaijing was his son.

"Okay, I have to go home quickly and sort out the business. Sister, I thank you this time."

"Madam, Mrs. Pan and the landlord of the fifth house of the Huyan family are here."

Mrs. Sun hurriedly said: "Sister, please stay for a while and entertain the guests with me."

Mrs. Wu nodded without any hesitation and said:

"That's alright. You go back and tell your family that they should quickly ask the Marquis to send a steward to put an end to the affairs of those families just now."

"Yes, madam!"

Soon, Mrs. Pan led Hu Yanhai into the front hall.

Mrs. Pan was not afraid of the family scandal being publicized, and she spoke blankly about what she had experienced in the past few days.

And Hu Yanhai’s behavior of flipping the table tonight.

The two ladies were stunned.

Naturally, Mrs. Sun didn't hide it. Now that the Fifth Fang is shouldering the heavy responsibility, the court should not take any big action against the Fifth Fang.

But Dafang and Baojia?

Mrs. Pan took a deep breath and said, "It is your own fault."

Mrs. Wu asked with concern: "Sister, there should be no problems with your fifth house and the Pan family, right? If so, it's better to be frank with His Majesty."

Hu Yanhai on the side cupped his hands and said:

"To be honest, the fur Dongzhu that our couple received from the Kingdom of Jin was all collected by the Pan family at market price or even a premium! The money exchanged was then handed over to the state treasury. For this matter, my wife worked hard Complained by the Pan family."

Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Wu looked at Mrs. Pan in surprise.

"Two sisters, don't look at me like this. I'm just loyal to the country."

Xu Zaijing on the side was also filled with admiration.

"By the way, do you know what my brother Jiong is busy with now?"

Looking at the two curious ladies, Mrs. Pan said:

"Now he has entered the hinterland of the Kingdom of Jin and is hunting falcons for our sister An! News came a few days ago that he has caught a pair of wild geese!"

Sun's face turned pale and she said:

"This kid! Why did he go to the Kingdom of Jin! Isn't he just fooling around! Can you agree with that?!"

"Is there anything I can't agree with? As long as I can marry your sister An, I think he will be happy if you let him marry you!"

Mrs. Wu joked: "Sister Pan, how dare you say in front of someone like her who has three sons, if her family really only has girls?"

"Don't dare! I only have one son."

Everyone laughed when they heard Madam Pan's answer without thinking.

Hiding her smile, Mrs. Wu said: "Your family will be having a hard time in the next few days. If you need help, please let us know."

Sun also smiled and nodded.

Send off Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Pan,

Xu Zaijing came to the racecourse, and the Xu family's horses were eating a little listlessly.

In the midst of the mosquito repellent smoke, the lame groom was giving the horses a painful massage.

Fuchanghou Mansion,

Rong's mother came to Rong Feiyan's yard with a sad face.

"Feiyan, if you enter the palace again, please ask your sister to let His Majesty send someone to look for your brother again! He grew up in fine clothes and fine food, but now he may be suffering somewhere!"

"I know, mother."
