Su Xinyi didn't know that his eldest brother had been tricked by Pang Lan. He was even more tired after running around for a day yesterday, so he entrusted the matter to his eldest brother. He had nothing to do and slept until midnight. New 𝟲𝟵Book Bar→𝟲𝟵𝘀𝗵𝘂𝘅.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Girl, Madam went back to Gao's house today, and cousin is due today." Forsythia said with a smile, reaching out and placing the soup in front of the girl.

Su Xinyi was a little surprised, "Cousin Yihua passed away today? I should also go and congratulate you."

"The madam said she would take a few girls back with her after a day, so that the girls don't have to worry."

Su Xinyi was a little upset. She must have been running around all day yesterday, and her mother saw her working hard, so she didn't let her get up early and go with her today. She had to prepare a generous gift for cousin Yihua to express her apology.

After breakfast, Su Xinyi was wondering how to pass the time, embroidering, painting or learning tailoring from Grandma She?

When she heard Su Jingmo's voice coming from outside, she knew she didn't have to think about it.

"Xiao Liu, the second sister is coming back today, do you know?" Su Jingmo said happily bursting through the door.

Su Xinyi was a little surprised, "Come back today? Why is it so sudden, and the second sister didn't inform you in advance?"

"No, but the mother in charge of the second sister said that it seems that Ding Nanbo's family is going out for a banquet today. The second sister is pregnant and will not go with her. It happens that there is no one at home, so she decided to come back at the last minute." Su Jingmo said.

While they were talking here, Bai Zhi beside Su Xixian came to tell them that Su Lanxi had arrived.

The two of them hurried to the Madam's side. As soon as they entered the door, they saw a woman wearing a light blue multicolored silk shirt and skirt saluting the Madam.

In her previous life, she had the least interaction with Su Lanxi among the sisters, because she was as soft-tempered as the second lady and would not quarrel with others. She also didn't like to socialize very much and rarely went out to be guests, so the two sisters met each other. There are very few opportunities.

When Mrs. Tai saw Su Xinyi and Su Jingmo coming in, she waved to them, and Su Xinyi took a step forward.

The madam pointed at her and said to Su Lanxi: "Come and recognize the troublemaker in our family."

Su Xinyi:......

Su Lanxi turned around and looked at the recognized sixth sister. When she saw her for the first time, she was quite surprised and said: "Sixth sister and fourth uncle are really similar. They are almost carved from the same mold."

As Su Lanqian spoke, she took a brocade box from the girl next to her and gave it to Su Xinyi, "When my sister came back, it happened that I couldn't go out. Don't blame me, sister. This is my sister's apology for you."

Su Lanqian's appearance in Su Xinyi's memory was actually very blurry. One was quiet and didn't like to go out, while the other was trapped at home and rarely went out. Although the two sisters were in the same capital, they were very alienated.

At this moment, facing Su Lanqian's gentle and watery eyes, the vague appearance in the memory seemed to slowly become clear.

"Second sister, you have already given me a greeting gift and a horse harness. If you give me a favor this time, I will really make a fortune." Su Xinyi said with a smile.

Su Lanqian felt a little relieved when she heard what her sixth sister said. These days, her sister had a good reputation and a brilliant record, so she was really worried that she would be difficult to get along with.

Now it seems that she has overthought it. This sixth sister looks like her fourth uncle. She has a generous and cheerful temperament, which makes people like her just by looking at her.

The second lady smiled and said from the side: "It's your sister's duty to provide you with supplies. Xin Yi, don't be polite to your sister."

"Second Aunt, please don't say that. I have accepted three copies of this gift. Even though I am thick-skinned, I can't bear it now." Su Xinyi felt so embarrassed that her face turned a little red.

The madam was happy to see the two sisters getting closer, "We, Lanxi, still have face. The face of our family is red, it's really rare."

Su Xinyi:......

Everyone laughed immediately, and Su Jingmo couldn't even straighten up.

At this time, Su Baiwei came with Sister Jun in her arms. The last time Shi Zhongqian came to the house, he lied to him and did not let Su Baiwei and her daughter go back to their hometown.

Originally, he planned to go to Zhuangzi to take shelter, but the old man didn't agree. He slapped the table and said, "Let me see if Shi Zhongqian dares to break into my Duke of Qi's mansion!"

As soon as these words came out, Su Baiwei and her daughter stayed. new

Because Su Lanqian came back suddenly, the men in the family were working as errands and studying, and they couldn't make it back in time to deliver letters, so they simply didn't tell them.

After Su Lanxi said hello to the madam, she went to the old lady's place again. When she came back, the third lady also arrived.

The sisters sat together talking and laughing, and the room suddenly became lively. Lan Qian was pregnant, so everyone was very careful. Su Jingmo looked at his second sister's slightly bulging belly and didn't dare to reach out and touch it.

The madam told the eldest lady to go to the kitchen and take a look. She should pay special attention to the diet if there is a pregnant woman.

The second wife didn't like asking her sister-in-law to run errands because of her daughter's affairs, so she took over the matter and went to the kitchen.

The Fourth Madam returned to her parents' home, and the Third Madam had an unpleasant temper. The Tai Madam was too lazy to talk to her, so she just listened to the chirping of the granddaughters over there.

Su Xixian asked curiously: "Second sister, what kind of banquet is the uncle going to and the whole family should go to it? I haven't heard of any big banquets in the capital recently."

Su Lanxi said softly: "She is a relative of the old lady in our house. We are usually very close to her. She wants to marry her eldest grandson there. She sent an invitation, so of course she will go to the house."

It turns out that Su Xinyi is not familiar with Dingnanbo's Mansion. Dingnanbo's Mansion is different from Qin Guogong's Mansion. This family is also low-key. They lived peacefully in their previous life and never heard of any trouble.

Moreover, the second sister and her second brother-in-law were in harmony with each other. Her falling into the water caused Su Baiwei to be teased in the Duke of Qin's palace, but Su Lanxi was not greatly affected.

She has a good temper, she is not the eldest daughter-in-law, and her husband has a good temper, and there is no fighting or fighting, so the two of them live a peaceful and smooth life.

As he was talking, he somehow got around to Su Xinyi again, and listened to Su Lanqian say: "The six sisters in Guangping County Prince's Palace became famous after a polo match. The old lady in our house also said that we would invite some sisters from the family to come to the house another day. Play, I want to see you."

Su Xinyi was embarrassed.

Su Jingmo laughed unceremoniously, and even Su Chaoyan was overjoyed.

Su Xixian added at the side, "Second sister, you don't know, our Xiaoliu is very powerful. The eldest sister was bullied by the Duke of Qin. Xiaoliu and his eldest brother hit the door with a spear. The Duke of Qin not only obediently wrote the letter of separation. , even the eldest sister’s dowry was delivered back in person.”

"Yes, I was beaten out after being swallowed by the Duke of Qin's house!" Su Jingmo immediately answered, "Second sister, if you are bullied in the uncle's house, tell our Xiaoliu to keep the second brother-in-law obedient. I’ll make amends to you.”

Su Xinyi couldn't bear it any longer, looked at them and said, "Shut up! If you say this, I've become a yaksha!"

The wife was also happy when she heard this, and the third lady couldn't help laughing either.

Su Lanqian looked at Su Xinyi tenderly and said softly: "There is no need for the sixth sister to come to the door. Since your second brother-in-law heard about your visit to the Duke of Qin's mansion, he has been very considerate to me now."

Su Xinyi had a dull look on her face. She should be happy, right?

Su Jingmo laughed so hard that she looked at Su Xinyi and said, "Xiao Liu, work harder and try to make your fourth brother-in-law behave well. When he sees me, he will smile like a flower."

Su Xinyi covered her face and gave up struggling.

The family had a happy meal. After the meal, Su Lanxi was considerate of the fact that she was pregnant and asked her to go back to rest with the second lady.

The madam here left Su Xinyi behind, and Su Jingmo and others hurriedly greased the soles of their shoes and slipped away.

"Grandma, do you have anything to tell me?" Su Xinyi sat there very obediently and said.

The madam looked at her like this and laughed angrily, and said: "Your grandfather has chosen some guards for you, and they will arrive tomorrow. Then let your elder brother take you to see him. You are not allowed to go out alone in the future, so that your family can feel at ease." become."

Su Xinyi felt relieved that it was not just a grounding. She immediately said happily: "Thank you grandma, grandpa loves me."

The madam originally wanted to give her a few words to calm her down and stop running around all day long, but seeing her looking so happy, she thought about it and gave it up.

Su Xinyi went out from Mrs. Tai's place, but was blocked by Su Jingmo and Su Xixian on the way.

"Grandma didn't lecture you, did she?" Su Jingmo asked hurriedly.

Su Xinyi shook his head, "No, my grandmother told me that my grandfather picked some guards for me and asked me to take them with me when I go out."

Su Jingmo immediately became sour, "This is the kind of treatment only young masters in our family receive."

Su Xixian didn't like her and immediately said, "Fourth sister, if you have Xiaoliu's skills, my grandfather will definitely prepare them for you."

Su Jing glared at Su Xixian angrily, then looked at Su Xinyi and said, "I don't care anyway. You accompany me when I go out from now on. Although I don't have it, if you have it, it means I have it."

Can it still be like this?

Su Xixian once again had a new understanding of the fourth sister's shamelessness, but after thinking that it was right, she decided to shut up and not make trouble. She can do the same in the future.

When Su Lanqian was about to return home in the afternoon, Li Sui came to pick up his wife.

So everyone met their second brother-in-law again at Mrs. Tai's place. This was the first time Li Sui met Su Xinyi. Listening to the famous Miss Su Liu obediently calling him brother-in-law, she thought about Shi Zhongqian and being chased and beaten on the polo field. Shang Junyan's feet felt a little cold.

After the young couple left, Su Jingmo was laughing so hard that she couldn't even stand up straight. The second lady looked at them with a smile on her face.

The wife is the only one who is worried, how will she find her husband's family in the future?

Su Xinyi had a good impression of this second brother-in-law. Seeing him carefully helping the second sister get into the carriage, and comparing it with Shi Zhongqian's eldest sister, she could tell the difference.

Mrs. Su Si came back to have dinner with her daughter in the evening. When she heard her talk about Mr. and Mrs. Su Lanxi, she smiled and said, "Your second sister has a gentle temper. Your second aunt had a lot of worries when choosing her husband. She chose from thousands of choices." The third young master of Nanbo Mansion. Your second sister is the legitimate daughter of the second wife. She is enough to be the eldest daughter-in-law. However, she is too soft-tempered and does not have the courage to suppress others as the person in charge of the middle child of a big family, so she chose Li. So, now it seems that I made a good choice."

Su Xinyi nodded, "Mom is right, the second aunt did make a good choice."

Mrs. Su Si looked at Xin Yi, and she also thought that the children in the family were not much different in age. Su Chaoyan, Su Jingmo and Su Xixian were all considering their marriage, and Xin Yi's marriage had to be arranged now.

Su Xinyi came back to wash up and then fell asleep. Before falling asleep, she was still thinking about how her elder brother's affairs were going.

\u0026\u0026\u0026

The night was slightly cool, the moon was hidden, and the stars were sparse. Yang Jin and his men were in ambush outside Wuji View, and Su Yi was among them.

The originally dark Taoist temple suddenly turned on a light, which seemed particularly abrupt in this dark night.

Yang Jin made a gesture, and the people lurking around slowly approached the Taoist temple, and the group climbed over the wall silently and entered.

Su Yi followed Yang Jin closely, the cool summer breeze brushing his cheeks, but his heart was burning.

The sixth sister is right, there is indeed something wrong with this Taoist temple.

The light was on in the back row of the Taoist temple. Su Yi stood against the wall, covering her figure. When she looked around, she saw half of the bamboo curtain falling on the tall window. The fine tassels under the bamboo curtain were gently blown by the wind. shake.

The wind blew into the room through the window, and the oil lamp was swayed left and right by the wind, making the room even more eerie.

At this moment, a figure walked out of the inner room, walked straight to the table and sat down. He picked up the lampshade and put it on the lamp. The candlelight stopped flickering, and then he saw clearly that the person was wearing a Taoist robe. Su Yi could only see the side. The face is a bit far away and can't be seen clearly.

Why is there only one person?

Su Yi felt something was wrong and turned to look at Yang Jin.

Yang Jin was also frowning at this time, and his eyes met Su Yi's, and then he whispered: "I will lead people directly to arrest them, and you will hold the line later."

"Okay." Su Yi nodded. He was not as good as Yang Jin in terms of skill, so naturally he would not show off at this time.

Yang Jin ducked out, pulled out his waist knife, broke through the window, and stabbed the Taoist priest in the room.

The Taoist priest was startled, and immediately leaned back to avoid the blow, and then rolled back. When he got up again, he had a knife in his hand and started fighting with Yang Jin.

In addition to the group of people led by Su Yi who were escorted back, the group of people led by Yang Jin had also entered the inner room at this time. When the Taoist saw something bad, he climbed through the window and tried to escape.

When Su Yi saw it, he immediately opened a fishing net with the person and trapped the person.

"Fire!"

Someone shouted, and everyone paid. A raging fire burned in the front yard of the Taoist temple, lighting up half of the sky.

Su Yi's expression changed, he pushed the person in the net into the hands of the people around him, and immediately shouted: "Team 3, follow me!"

The alchemy furnace is in the front yard!

A fire broke out in the south of the city, causing the entire south city to become noisy. Every household stayed behind closed doors, staring at the fire with panic.

A round of morning sun burst out, and Wuji Temple was already in ruins. This Taoist temple was not big in the first place, but the fire was so fierce that someone poured kerosene on the ground.

Yang Jin and others climbed over the wall and went straight to the backyard, but did not find anything strange in the front yard, which led to the Taoist temple being burned down.

Fortunately, Su Yi reacted quickly enough and led his men to snatch out the alchemy furnace, but less than one-third of the contents in the alchemy room were taken out.

At this time, Yan Junchu was standing in the court hall to listen to the government. He stood in a corner with an upright posture and a serious expression, listening to the conversation between His Majesty and the courtiers. Suddenly he felt something and turned his head slightly to look outside the hall.

King Rong was only recently allowed to go to the palace, and it was only after the queen made several remarks that his majesty relaxed.

At this time, King Rong inadvertently looked up and found that his eldest brother, who behaved like a specimen, was looking sideways.

Hey, that's weird.

Yan Junchu withdrew his gaze and turned around, just in time to meet Wang Rong's appraising eyes. He smiled faintly and resumed his posture and calmness like a jade bamboo.

King Rong:......

In terms of pretentiousness, he is really hard to match the prince!

snort!

After entering May, the weather became obviously hotter. A fire in Wujiguan led to a major case, which shocked the government and the public.

Su Xinyi was selling wine with her cousin from the Gao family in the Xinghua Building. There was a row of apricot blossom trees planted in front of the Xinghua Building. Although the apricot blossoms were in full bloom and covered the branches, they looked like a crimson cloud. Wrap the Xinghua Tower in it. The wind blew, and apricot blossoms fell from the branches, like a rain of apricot blossoms. Such beautiful scenery attracted many people.

Su Xinyi is also one of them.

Drinking wine is secondary, the main thing is the beautiful scenery of Xinghua Tower.

Su Xinyi and cousin Gao walked through the apricot blossom rain and walked into the apricot blossom building. Today she happened to be wearing a bright yellow double-breasted jacket and a fiery red pomegranate dress. The beauty walking through the apricot blossom rain looked like she was walking out of a painting. The fairy comes out.

Gao Muhua noticed the astonished gazes of the people around him and couldn't help but feel happy as he looked sideways at the unconscious little cousin beside him.

At this time, the prince opposite Xinghua Tower was talking to Wang Ce. When he turned his head, he took in the scene just now. He had been busy investigating the case these days and had not seen Su Xinyi for half a month.

He always had a subtle feeling that she was avoiding him.

"Your Highness?" Wang Ce was surprised to find that His Highness was looking out the window in a trance. He followed and looked out, but only saw the apricot blossoms in full bloom. What is there to be so dazed about?

Yan Junchu came to his senses and turned to look at Wang Ce, "Go on."

Wang Ce looked at His Highness's calm look and felt that he might have been dazzled just now, so he immediately calmed down and continued: "Your Highness's guess is correct. The person behind Taoist Wuwei, the master of Wuji Temple, is indeed An Jingqi, but An Jingqi He is the brother of King Dongli’s concubine. If we arrest him, I don’t know if King Dongli will stop him.”

"Arrest him!" Yan Junchu said with a sullen expression, "If Jiang Baizhuo dares to obstruct us, let him come directly to see Gu."

When Wang Ce heard His Highness the Crown Prince's words, he knew that His Highness was very angry. As long as His Highness insisted on arresting people, the Wujiguan case would soon be revealed.

When the evidence of the crime is complete, King Dongli will have to think about how to exonerate himself.

"Your Highness, according to the rules, if someone is arrested, they can only be sent to Dali Temple or the Ministry of Punishment. Once the person escapes the control of the East Palace, An Jingqi may be able to escape guilt. Where to interrogate him is also a crucial issue." Wang Ce said quickly.

Yan Junchu nodded, "The arrested people will be sent to Dali Temple first. The minister of Dali Temple, Tu Hongshang, is considered upright. We will discuss the rest after I report back to Your Majesty."

Wang Ce wrote them down one by one, then he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Then my subordinate will go first."

Yan Junchu nodded slightly and said, "Go."

Wang Ce didn't dare to delay and immediately got up and left. Catching someone was a big deal. He couldn't let An Jingqi escape after hearing the news. He had to hit him with one blow.

As soon as Wang Ce left, Yan Junchu turned his head and looked to the opposite side. He hadn't seen Su Xinyi come out yet. He was just buying a drink. How long would it take?

At this time, Su Xinyi looked at the broken wine jar at her feet, and at the apologetic Xu Yurong opposite, feeling a little dazed for a moment. She hadn't seen her in a long time, and she didn't expect to meet her here.

As a result, the two met in a narrow road, and Xu Yurong even knocked over her wine jar.

When Xu Yurong saw Su Xinyi, her face was uglier than if she had seen a ghost. She would not be afraid if Su Xinyi was the only one, but there was Gao Muhua standing next to her.

Thinking of the nature of the Gao family, Xu Yurong could only apologize to Su Xinyi with a full face, "I'm really sorry, Miss Six. I was walking in a hurry and didn't see you guys turning down from upstairs. So, I'll accompany you." How about two jars of wine?"

Su Xinyi looked at Xu Yurong. Today, Xu Yurong is thinner than when he was in Prince Dongli's Mansion. When he loses weight, his facial features appear a bit mean, and even if he is smiling, it is a bit uncomfortable.

"No need, since Miss Xu didn't mean it, that's all." Su Xinyi and Xu Yurong had an old grudge, and she didn't want to be accused of making trouble in front of everyone.

The smile on Xu Yurong's face froze slightly, and the breath in her heart became increasingly difficult to swallow.

Su Xinyi took the opportunity to overturn the incident when she fell into the water. From then on, she became a laughing stock. During these days, she rarely even left the house. As a result, Su Xinyi took advantage of her lack of scruples from the countryside and unexpectedly spread the news. He has a good reputation as a country person who is straightforward and has no intentions.

The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to vomit blood. She was really unwilling to meet Su Xinyi today when she saw that her facial features were even more beautiful than when she was in Prince Dongli's palace, and Gao Muhua was also very close to her.

She's obviously just a wild girl from the countryside.

"How can that be done?" Xu Yurong said with a smile, "Since it's my fault, of course I have to pay for it."

As Xu Yurong spoke, she went to the counter to order two more bottles of wine. When she was ordering the wine, she remembered that she hadn't asked Su Xinyi which wine she ordered, so she looked at her with a smile, "Miss Six, which wine did you order?" liquor?"

Xu Yurong's voice was not low and attracted the attention of many customers in the hall.

Most of the people who came to Xinghualou to buy wine were men, and there were not many women. When Xu Yurong shouted like this, everyone looked at Su Xinyi a little strangely.

Su Xinyi stared at Xu Yurong with a half-smile but not a smile. She knew that she had no good intentions, so she said loudly: "I ordered thirty-year-old wine for my grandfather. Since Miss Xu insists on compensating me for this jar of wine, I have no choice but to be respectful rather than obey."

Xu Yurong's smile froze on her face, thirty years of aging?

How much money does this jar of wine cost?

At this time, the shopkeeper standing behind the counter immediately said with a smile: "The guest is very lucky. Today, only this jar of thirty-year-old wine is left. Thank you for your patronage, one hundred and fifty taels."

Xu Yurong was shocked, one hundred and fifty taels?

Why not grab it?

If she really didn't look down on the one hundred and fifty taels before, it was just the money for one or two pieces of jewelry.

But since the last incident, the government has reduced her expenses a lot, and the money on hand is very tight. Moreover, she went out to Xinghua Tower today to enjoy the scenery, and just wanted to buy a jar of ordinary wine and go back to show off. , so I didn’t bring much money out at all.

Facing Su Xinyi's half-smiling gaze, Xu Yurong felt a chill in her heart.
