Scheme of the Official Descendant

(edited)

Ren Yaoqi knew that the "person who can take charge" in Aunt Fang's mouth did not refer to her. Aunt Fang's scheming was probably guessing that the person who imprisoned her was the power of the Yanbei Palace. What she was thinking now must be some kind of secret in exchange for her. freedom of.

But Ren Yaoqi didn't want to make any deal with her, and there was nothing to trade between them. Ren Yaoqi only hoped that Aunt Fang would stop affecting her and her family's life in the future.

But Ren Yaoqi also knew that what she meant did not represent the meaning of Yanbei Palace. What if Aunt Fang really has something that Yanbei Palace wants?

Even if the Ren family was able to promote an aunt for the benefit, why would she ask the Yanbei Palace to sacrifice her own interests to help such an irrelevant person like her? Aunt Fang is entangled with her grievances and has nothing to do with anyone else.

Zhu Ruomei was able to tell Aunt Fang before she reached an agreement with the Yanbei Prince's Mansion, it was already a repayment of love and righteousness. He should have told Xiao Jingxi the news. After all, Xiao Jingxi was his serious master. The premise for him to help her was not to harm the interests of the Xiao family.

Ren Yaoqi thought, if Aunt Fang could really impress Yanbei Palace in the end, she would have nothing to say. However, she still wanted to find a way to have the best of both worlds, to make herself happy without harming the interests of Yanbei Palace.

Ren Yaoqi was thinking about whether she should go to see Aunt Fang, and how to deal with it when she saw her, when Apple suddenly turned back from the outside with a letter in her hand.

"Miss, the Princess has sent you a letter."

Ren Yaoqi was a little surprised when she heard the words, but just as she was about to inquire about the letter in Apple's hand, she saw Mai Dong's family hurried in from the outside with the curtain lifted.

"Miss, have you heard that the princess has sent you a letter?" Mai Dong's family's eyes stayed on the letter in Ren Yaoqi's hand, and her face was full of surprises, but ordinary people still have a feeling of respect and fear for the princess, so she didn't Dare not hold a chicken feather as an arrow to ask Ren Yaoqi to show her the letter first.

Ren Yaoqi glanced at her, nodded lightly, and then opened the letter in front of her.

Mai Dong's family hurriedly asked: "Miss, what did the princess say in the letter? Did you plead with the princess for you? When can the princess see you?"

Mulberry was bringing tea in, and when she saw her, she curled her lips and said, "Miss just opened the letter and haven't read it yet, what are you in a hurry for?"

Hearing this, Mai Dong's family had a somewhat embarrassing face, but they still stared at Ren Yaoqi's expression.

Ren Yaoqi ignored her, lowered her head and read the letter carefully from beginning to end, then raised her head after a long time and said: "The princess said that she will invite me to the palace when she comes back, and then she will take me to meet the princess. "

Mai Dong's family hurriedly asked: "When will the princess come back?"

Ren Yaoqi frowned: "Hurry up, I heard that I will be back before my birthday."

In Yunyang City, Mai Dong's family only does some small maids' work of serving tea and pouring water every day. Mother Zhou is a strong person, and Mai Dong's family will not have much advantage in her hands, and she It is at least a matter of responsibility to release such background and qualifications, so the days of Mai Dong's family are a bit wronged, but there has been no news from the princess, and the princess has no intention of inviting Ren Yaoqi to the Yanbei Palace, Mai Dong Ji's hair is turning white.

Now that Ren Yaoqi finally received a letter from Princess Xiao, Mai Dong's family finally had something to say to Old Madam Ren.

It's just that the good news didn't come easily, and she still wanted to know more details.

"Did the princess say anything else? The maid looked at the princess's letter is quite long." Mai Dong's family approached with a smile.

Ren Yaoqi glanced at her and didn't say anything, and Mai Dong's family came over to look at the letter in Ren Yaoqi's hand even more shamelessly.

Ren Yaoqi read the letter again, and followed her.

Mai Dong's family walked through the letter quickly, and found that in addition to asking Ren Yaoqi to attend her Jiji ceremony when she came back, the letter also mentioned some interesting things that happened to her at the border and some natural events near Jiajingguan. scenery. Seeing that there was nothing more important besides these, she moved her eyes away.

Ren Yaoqi put away the letter, and said to Mai Dong's family: "Aren't you going back to Baihe Town? Go back earlier to make grandma feel at ease."

Mai Dong's family immediately laughed and said: "Miss Wu said that the servants will leave now, and the old lady is always thinking about it."

The old lady Ren felt that the princess's attitude towards Ren Yaoqi represented the attitude of Yanbei Palace towards the Ren family, so she was very concerned about Princess Yanbei's attitude towards Ren Yaoqi. Now that the princess is coming back, with the princess here, It is definitely not good for the princess to refute the face of the princess and refuse to see Ren Yaoqi, the old lady Ren needs to relax a little bit.

Mai Dong's family got the good news and went back to Baihe Town to find old lady Ren contentedly.

After she left, Ren Yaoqi told Pingguo: "Go and ask Madam Zhou to prepare the car, I'm going out for a while."

Apple asked: "The servant girl said where is Miss going?"

What Apple asked was not "Where is Miss going?" but "The maid said where Miss is going." It can be seen that although the servant girl looked dumb, she was not really dumb.

Ren Yaoqi thought for a while and said, "Let's just say I'm going to my grandmother's house again."

Apple responded.

Ren Yaoqi went to Li's to ask for instructions, and happened to meet Ren Yaoying crying in Li's room.

Aunt Fang disappeared, and Ren Yaoying panicked.

When Ren Shimao sent people over before, she overheard someone talking about how Aunt Fang had poisoned Mrs. Fifth and Ren Yaoying. After being found out by the fifth master, she was afraid of being retaliated, so she absconded in fear of crime.

No matter what others say, Ren Yaoying will never believe that Aunt Fang just ran away, and Aunt Fang will not rest assured that she and Ren Yihong will be handed over to Li Shi.

So Ren Yaoying came to beg Li to send someone to find Aunt Fang. She didn't know who said that the fifth master and the fifth wife were also looking for Aunt Fang and wanted Aunt Fang's life. She didn't want to see Aunt Fang die like this. She was outside, but she didn't dare to ask her father, so she had to ask her aunt. In her impression, Li's aunt was generally very talkative.

But Mrs. Li can't make up her mind about this matter. Aunt Fang finally finds out what will happen after she finds out. She just comforted Ren Yaoying in a soft voice, but she refused to let go and ask the third master Ren. After all, Ren Shimin She still knows what kind of temper she has. If she begged, Ren Shimin would blame her for not distinguishing right from wrong.

So Ren Yaoying stayed in the main room and cried.

When Ren Yaoqi passed, it happened that Ren Yaohua also rushed over upon hearing the news, and she directly asked several wives to help Ren Yaoying go back to her room to rest.

After Ren Yaoying was helped down crying, Ren Yaoqi proposed that she wanted to go out.

Mrs. Li was a little surprised to hear that Ren Yaoqi was going to her grandfather's house again. Ren Yaoqi went to her grandfather's house more diligently.

Ren Yaoqi also wanted to find a better excuse to go out, but she really couldn't think of it, so she had to use the grandparent's house as a cover again.

Fortunately, Mrs. Li didn't suspect anything, and only told her a few words before letting her go out.

After getting into the carriage, Ren Yaoqi followed the route of the previous trip, first arranged for people to go to Fumanlou to buy some snacks, and then asked the coachman to drive the carriage into the same teahouse as last time.

As soon as she entered through the back door, Ren Yaoqi saw Tong Xi waiting in the yard again.

Seeing Ren Yaoqi coming in, Tong Xi quickly stepped forward to salute, and then said: "Miss, please come with me."

Ren Yaoqi nodded and followed Tong Xi without saying anything.

Tong Xi didn't take Ren Yaoqi upstairs this time, he took Ren Yaoqi out through a relatively hidden side door, and outside the side door there was an inconspicuous green carriage parked.

Ren Yaoqi arranged for Sang Li to stay in the teahouse to take care of her, and she took Apple into the carriage.

Tong Xi jumped on the shaft of the carriage and drove the carriage out of the small alley.

After leaving the alley, the carriage drove back to Zhengyang Street.

Ren Yaoqi sat in the carriage for about a quarter of an hour, and felt the carriage slow down slowly, and finally entered a private house.

"Miss, we're here." Tong Xi whispered outside.

Apple first opened the curtain and got out of the carriage, then turned around and helped Ren Yaoqi get off.

Ren Yaoqi took a look at the house and found that it was very ordinary, and there was no one in the outer courtyard when he first entered.

"Miss, come with the little one." Tong Xi led the way.

Ren Yaoqi nodded and followed him into the second door.

As soon as he entered the door this time, Ren Yaoqi saw Xiao Jingxi standing in the veranda.

After seeing Xiao Jingxi, Tong Xi bowed and retreated behind Ren Yaoqi.

Ren Yaoqi walked to the corridor, bowed her knees to Xiao Jingxi and saluted: "Young Master Xiao."

Xiao Jingxi looked at her and smiled, "Did you understand my letter?"

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help laughing when she heard the words, she used to send messages to Xiao Jingxi with the first sentence, but this time Xiao Jingxi asked her to come here with the last sentence. The two passed the news like this, and it seemed a bit interesting.

Just as Ren Yaoqi was about to speak, she saw a bush move in the flower bed in the middle of the veranda. Ren Yaoqi turned her head and saw a huge white creature standing up from the grass where it was hiding and walking towards this side.

Ren Yaoqi froze for a moment, unable to react for a moment.

The gigantic creature moved its nose and was about to pounce towards Ren Yaoqi. Xiao Jingxi raised his hand and snapped his fingers. The thing stopped three steps away from Ren Yaoqi, and then Ren Yaoqi was dumbfounded. He sat down on his stomach under his gaze, stared at Xiao Jingxi flatteringly with his big eyes, and wagged his tail upright.

Ren Yaoqi: "..."

"Do you still recognize it?" Ren Yaoqi looked at Ren Yaoqi with a smile and asked.

Ren Yaoqi looked at the big one on the ground, and called out tentatively: "Stupid girl?"

The big white tiger looked at Ren Yaoqi with wide eyes, and the tail behind him wagged even faster.

Ren Yaoqi looked at Xiao Jingxi with a strange expression: "Who did you learn it from?"

Xiao Jingxi's face remained unchanged and he said: "I kept it at the hot spring villa before, I heard that it likes to play with a mastiff now."

Ren Yaoqi: "..."

Ren Yaoqi hadn't seen Sha Niu for a long time. The little tiger who could only be hugged in the arms had now grown into a big tiger of adult size, but this big tiger didn't know how to raise it. There is no so-called "king" domineering in his body, but he has developed the habits of a kitten and a puppy.

Ren Yaoqi didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Sha Niu has been staring at Ren Yaoqi curiously, but because of someone's coercion, it lies on the ground, except for moving its tail to express its inner joy, and dare not move at all. It can be seen that even animals can read words and expressions.

Seeing Ren Yaoqi looking at the silly girl all the time, Xiao Jingxi said: "Although it has grown up, it still likes people to smooth its hair. Are you afraid?"

Ren Yaoqi shook his head, and really reached out to smoothen the silly girl's hair. The silly girl wagged her tail happily, looked at Xiao Jingxi, and then carefully rubbed her head against Ren Yaoqi. She looks like a kitten, but she loves to be coquettish like a kitten, making Ren Yaoqi very happy.

Thinking of what the big silly boy liked when he was a child, Ren Yaoqi knelt down and scratched its neck with the other hand. The silly girl squinted her eyes contentedly, and then she got carried away and wanted to add Ren Yaoqi's hand.

Xiao Jingxi immediately put his hand against its forehead, and the silly girl sat back obediently, just looking at Xiao Jingxi with pitiful eyes, but unfortunately, Xiao Jingxi was not moved at all.

Ren Yaoqi took a look at Xiao Jingxi, bent her lips, and said intentionally, "I heard that animals have the most sensitive sense of smell, and they will always be careful to show submission to those who are more dangerous than themselves."

Xiao Jingxi looked at the big tiger with an innocent face, was silent for a moment, and then said: "I heard that everything in the world in the eyes of a tiger is different from the world in the eyes of ordinary people, so what we think is pleasing to the eye, it thinks that the face is Hateful."

Ren Yaoqi smiled and said: "Well, in the eyes of Mr. Xiao, we ordinary people are naturally hideous." Xiao Jingxi is turning a corner and saying that she is good-looking. Is she ugly?

Xiao Jingxi shook his head, and said seriously: "I haven't finished yet. It is said that the white tiger is a different kind of tiger, and will be driven out by the tigress to live alone by the tigress as soon as it is born. Do you know why?"

Ren Yaoqi thought for a while: "Is it because the white tiger's peculiar coat color will expose itself to natural enemies, so it is not easy to feed?"

Xiao Jingxi shook his head again, and said in a serious tone: "Actually, it's because everything in the world in the eyes of white tigers is exactly the opposite of everything in the world in the eyes of other tigers, so no matter where the aliens are, it is difficult to survive."

Ren Yaoqi laughed out loud when he heard the words, and joked: "When you come to Mr. Xiao, you can say that the white is black, and the black can be said to be white, so it's really..."

Xiao Jingxi looked at her and smiled, and asked in a low voice, "What is it really?"

Ren Yaoqi smiled without saying a word.

Xiao Jingxi also laughed, but stopped asking questions.

At this moment, Tong De came over, lowered his head and reported: "My lord, the arrangement has been made."

Xiao Jingxi nodded, looked at Ren Yaoqi: "Let's go."

Ren Yaoqi patted Sha Niu's head and stood up: "May I see Aunt Fang?"

Xiao Jingxi shook his head and said with a smile, "If you don't want to see her, you won't see her. I just think you might want to know what she wants to say."

Ren Yaoqi was really curious about what Aunt Fang wanted to say, so she followed Xiao Jingxi without saying anything.

"Ao woo—"

Seeing that the two were about to leave, Sha Niu got up with an inexplicable expression on her face, and looked at them curiously.

Ren Yaoqi glanced back.

Xiao Jingxi instructed Tong De: "Feed it some food first, if it rolls around in the garden and gets dirty, ask Tong He to bathe it."

"Aww..."

Ren Yaoqi looked at the silly girl who didn't dare to keep up, smiled and waved at it, then left.

The two walked on the road one after the other, and after walking for a while, when they arrived in front of an independent courtyard, Xiao Jingxi suddenly stopped and turned his head and said: "If you don't stop, you will suffer from it, your heart has softened again this time. "

Ren Yaoqi was taken aback when she heard the words, then shook her head and said, "No, I haven't."

Xiao Jingxi smiled: "Oh? If you don't have a soft heart, why did you tell Zhu Ruomei to lock her up?"

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help being speechless.

Of course she knew that if she could take this opportunity to make Aunt Fang disappear forever, then she would have no worries in the future. But even if she lived another life, she would still be just an ordinary woman, and she still couldn't do something like ending a person's life with just a word of mouth.

Seeing that Ren Yaoqi didn't speak, Xiao Jingxi couldn't help but sighed, then looked at her and said softly: "It's not a bad thing to be soft-hearted, and I don't mean to teach you a lesson. It's just that if there is something inconvenient for you to do, you might as well Leave it to me." Xiao Jingxi paused, "If you can trust me."

Ren Yaoqi looked at Xiao Jingxi, she wanted to say thank you, but she couldn't get it out of her mouth.

Xiao Jingxi's gaze was gentle and serious, which made Ren Yaoqi feel that an understatement of thank you was too perfunctory, so she looked at him and said nothing.

Xiao Jingxi turned around and walked into the yard again, Ren Yaoqi followed with his head bowed.

The courtyard is not big, and the courtyard is also very small. There are only three rooms on the north side, and there are no left and right wing rooms. Ren Yaoqi saw that there were guards at the door of the room and in every corner. For a person like Aunt Fang, this kind of guard is considered a special treatment.

Xiao Jingxi took Ren Yaoqi to the most central room, Ren Yaoqi looked around, but did not see Aunt Fang.

Xiao Jingxi didn't say anything, and signaled Ren Yaoqi to follow him and sit down at the Eight Immortals table in the middle of the room.

Tong He soon delivered some refreshments, and Ren Yaoqi saw that some of them were Fumanlou's signature dim sum.

At this time, Ren Yaoqi clearly heard the sound of pushing the door next door, and then Aunt Fang's voice: "How is it? Is your master willing to see me?"

Aunt Fang's voice was a little tired, but calm.

The person who pushed the door didn't seem to answer, but then there were footsteps, and a male voice said unhurriedly, "Why do you want to see me?"

Ren Yaoqi was slightly taken aback, the voice sounded familiar to her, and immediately it was the voice of Min Wenqing whom she had seen before.

Aunt Fang didn't recognize Min Wenqing, she seemed to look at him for a long time before she said, "Are you their master?"

Min Wenqing said with a smile: "There is a master in this world, I dare not call it master."

Aunt Fang paused and said, "I mean, I want to meet the person who can do it and let me go."

Min Wenqing seemed to sit down on the chair: "That depends on whether you have the value of continuing to live."

Aunt Fang said: "So you can make the decision?" Aunt Fang was very cautious, and this caution seemed to show from the side that what she had to say was really important.

Min Wenqing played with taste: "Whether I can do it is not the main point, the point is whether you have the ability to get out of here." Min Wenqing smiled, "Do you know where this is? A house in Wanfu Lane, away from Zhengyang The main street is not far away. But maybe this is where your bones are buried."

Min Wenqing's words were not serious, and there was even a hint of a smile, but no one doubted the authenticity of his words.

"So this is Wanfu Lane." Aunt Fang murmured.

Min Wenqing seemed to have remembered something, and said again: "I almost forgot, you should not be unfamiliar with this place. The Guangli Bank you are familiar with is just two streets away."

Aunt Fang's eyes flickered when she heard the words: "I said, this place sounds familiar. I have indeed been to Guangli Bank once."

Min Wenqing asked with a smile, "Oh? Just visited once?"

Aunt Fang played Tai Chi.

Ren Yaoqi frowned, leaned over and asked in a low voice, "What did Guangli Bank find out?"

Xiao Jing paused for a moment, then lowered his voice and said: "Before, I asked someone to take that letterhead to Guangli Bank, and told the shopkeeper of the bank according to what she said. The bank really gave Eight hundred and fifty taels of silver, but after they left, they sent people to follow, and some people went to Baiyun nunnery."

Ren Yaoqi frowned and said, "Are these all hidden stakes of the imperial court?"

Xiao Jingxi smiled and said: "Guangli Bank? No, the owner of Guangli Bank has a good relationship with the Yun family, but the identity of the bank manager is a bit strange."

Ren Yaoqi thought about it and thought it was the same.

Guangli Bank is considered to be one of the largest banks in Yanbei. Naturally, this kind of industry is only normal if it is under the control of the Yanbei Palace. If she were the person in power in Yanbei Palace, she would not let an unknown bank control the flow of most of Yanbei's money.

Xiao Jingxi said: "Even the people in Baiyun nunnery don't say there is a problem. If I guessed correctly, these people only appeared in Yanbei after the disarmament order of the imperial court was promulgated. It’s short, so it’s not a big deal. If you don’t say something about you this time, maybe these people will miss it.”

Ren Yaoqi thought, Xiao Jingxi's guess is very possible.

Maybe Fang Yacun came to Yanbei this time to make use of these people, but it is a pity that Fang Yacun was not able to come to Yanbei because of her spoiling the situation, so these people were related to Aunt Fang, but I don’t know that Aunt Fang put these people together. Did Fang Yacun get the consent of Fang Yacun's master for her own use? What would that master's expression be if he knew that all the manpower he deployed was finally folded in the hands of a woman.

Ren Yaoqi remembered that Aunt Xiao, who helped the evildoer before, might have some problems, so she told Xiao Jingxi.

Xiao Jingxi nodded: "I see, don't worry."

Ren Yaoqi was really relieved.

An understatement by some is enough to reassure.

This time, if we can wipe out all the germs of these forces in the imperial court, it can be regarded as a precautionary measure. Although to Xiao Jingxi, these people are just small fish and shrimps, but if there are too many lice, it will hurt to bite people.
