Chapter 386: Inquiry
Zhuoma was stunned and said with a smile: "I won't go, just bring the gold beads and Ma Zhu, the princess will bring the gold beads and Ma Zhu, and they have both learned the rules of the Daying Palace very proficiently." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info It's just that the princess, you have to remember that the queen mother can have today's status, not only because she has blocked the sword for the emperor, so you must not listen to the eldest lady. β
The Song family also wants to curry favor with the queen through Princess Thea, and the self-righteous means of teaching Thea are very unpopular in Zhuoma's opinion, no wonder the Song family will decline, and the children raised are all shallow-eyed, stupid and foolish to others, can they not decline?
Thea pursed her lips: "Don't worry, Mama, I have never heard those things in her ears." "The Song family will teach her, won't they teach her a few children, especially the sisters Pan Shuying and Pan Shumin? However, it is obvious that those two sisters-in-law are not liked by the queen, which means that the queen does not eat the Song family's set.
Zhuoma nodded with satisfaction: "I heard that the queen's temperament is very similar to that of an old lady, soft on the outside and steel on the inside, generous and neat, but her heart is bright and bright, and she is not so easy to calculate." Rao didn't believe in all kinds of rumors before, but after living in the British Mansion, she still found that many things were unexpected by her, or much more serious than she expected.
Thea sighed: "I understand what you mean, we all thought that the relationship between Dafang and Pan Monkey was very good, and the queen should be good to them, but I didn't expect ......" The queen doesn't like Dafang, how can she be willing to give her the hard-to-find Zizhi? Pan Monkey didn't even stay in the capital for their wedding, is it possible to agree to the Xianggong to help her ask for Zizhi? I'm afraid that after knowing that there is such a good thing, he himself will ask the queen to occupy it first.
"It's me who listened to the rumors," Dolma said guiltily, she could say that the main temptation to move Thea to marry into the Pan family was Zizhi.
Thea hurriedly said: "How can you blame you for this, the third brother and I also believe it." However, Xianggong is really good, even if I never get that Zizhi, I won't regret it. Zhuoma was all about her, and at the beginning, Zhuoma only mentioned the Zizhi in the queen's hand, and the queen's love for Pan Jiaming, which she thought of and kissed herself. At that time, the father and the queen mother chose several horses for him, and she really didn't like any of them, so she thought that she didn't like them anyway, so it was better to seek a chance to get Zizhi with her relatives.
Although the reality is very different from what they imagined before, Pan Jiajin is also better than she expected before, she really likes Pan Jiajin and is very satisfied with her current life. Moreover, with Zhuoma by her side, she felt that life in Daying was not difficult, and those etiquette rules and habits were like that, not to mention that Daying's climate, living conditions, etc. were indeed much more comfortable than in Tibet.
"Mama, don't you really want to go into the palace to have a look?" Thea diverted the topic, she didn't want to see Dolma sad because of guilt, "Aren't you always asking if the basement of the Daying Palace is a gold brick, and you don't want to go and see it yourself?"
Dolma's heart was shocked, of course she wanted to go, not to see if the floor tiles were golden, but to explore ...... Person. It's just that it's not the time yet, the Pan family's big house is not treated by the queen, Thea's own situation is unknown, and she can't make trouble for Thea. Besides, when she went to the palace, she didn't seem to be ready, she didn't know the bottom of her heart, first, she was afraid that she couldn't control her gaffe, and secondly, she was afraid that if someone recognized her, although twenty years have passed, although she has deliberately made some changes.
"No," said Dolma, "didn't the king ask me to find a few more shops and granges in the capital and nearby as your dowry? β
Thea's dowry was mostly objects, gold, silver and jewelry, as well as a silver ticket specially exchanged by the king of Tibet. Before entering Beijing, the queen heard that a very important part of the marriage of the noble women of Daying was a perennial productive property such as shops and granges, so she gave it to Zhuoma. Therefore, not only Thea, but even the king and queen of the Tibetan region trust Dolma very much, which is also the reason why Dolma feels even more guilty.
"Okay, it's hard work," Thea really regards Dolma as a relative, "By the way, isn't Mama looking for your husband's nephew?" Doesn't it mean that there is a fixed resale channel for the slaves who are transported from the border? As long as we find someone, no matter how much silver we have, we will find a way to redeem him, and no one will dare to embarrass us in the British government. Thea has participated in three ladies entertainment, and she also knows that the signboard of the British Mansion is really useful in Daying.
There are three or four families of Daying people in her marriage, which Zhuoma suggested buying on the way back to Tibet when she set up a marriage matter, and the people were also selected by Zhuoma, saying that they were the "companions" when they got married. Steward Li is one of the most capable, he used to be the chief steward of the imperial merchants, Zhuoma said that he was active, and now let him take care of foreign affairs.
"Thank you, princess, for your concern," Zhuoma said gratefully, "During this time, I asked Li Cai to take the two managers to understand and familiarize themselves with the situation in the capital in advance, and also inquire about the shops and Zhuangzi, as well as the prefectures and counties near the capital, so that it is convenient to do things in the future." After the princess and your property are all purchased and operational, I will ask Li Cai and them to help me find the whereabouts of my nephew, and there must always be a priority. β
"You can do it yourself, and if you need me to open up to the Guogong Mansion, you can tell me," Thea didn't insist, she knew Dolma's temperament very well, and she was very planned and stubborn. Anyway, it is best if Zhuoma's nephew can be recovered, it doesn't matter if he can't find it back, Zhuoma will have her to take care of her for the rest of her life, and she doesn't need anyone to support her.
While the master and servant were chatting, Pan Jiajin came back with some snacks and a freshly baked raisin tart, which was Thea's favorite pastry.
Zhuoma poured tea for the young couple before leaving, Pan Jiajin glanced at Zhuoma's back and said with a smile: "You are close to your grandmother." Every time he came back, Thea was chatting affectionately with Dolma. However, Zhuoma is really a little capable, and he taught Thea very well, and after getting married, Thea's performance impressed him, and also made those who were waiting to see his Pan Jiajin jokes stunned, absolutely surprised!
Thea said with a smile while not skillfully helping Pan Jiajin change into the usual clothes she wore in the house: "I'm talking about me accompanying my grandmother into the palace tomorrow to meet the queen's mother, and she reminds me to pay attention to something." β
"Oh, the old lady wants you to accompany her into the palace?" Pan Jiajin's eyes flashed, this Fanbang wife really has two times, "Ying'er Chenghuan has been under her knees for so many years, and the old lady has never taken her into the palace, and Min'er is even more blind to her." "The old woman brought Thea into the palace, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was a good thing for him that her relationship with the big house had improved. Sometimes the things of the family are like this, in fact, it doesn't matter, on the surface it seems that you need it, and the faΓ§ade is very important. A few years ago, the relationship between their big house and Pan Jiaming was like this, and they really got a lot of benefits, but unfortunately, in the past year or so, to be precise, since Pan Jiaming picked up Jinshan, everything has been out of their control.
Thinking of Pan Jiaming, Pan Jiajin's eyes flashed with a touch of anger, how could that waste hit the big luck again and again? Could it really be as the prince said that he could not find the Eagle Guard? How could it be? Before going to Los Angeles on an errand, Pan Jiaming had been in their big house, to be exact, under his mother's nose, how could they not notice any movement at all? Moreover, my grandfather and father had never given up looking for the Eagle Guard, and they had never found a clue so far, how could Pan Jiaming find it first? When the second uncle died, how old was Pan Jiaming?
"Thea, since the old lady likes you, you should honor her old man more on my behalf," Pan Jiajin said with a cautious face, "I have nothing to do on weekdays to chat with her." Aren't you very interested in the Pan family's Eagle Guard? I was still young at the time, and I didn't know much about the Eagle Guard, and the old lady must know a lot about the Eagle Guard. Thea has a pair of golden eagles, which are also a type of eagle, so she is very interested in the eagle guard of the British Mansion and asks him a lot of questions, but unfortunately he doesn't know much.
"Really?" Thea's eyes lit up, but soon dimmed, "Didn't you say that since the death of the second master, the whereabouts of the Eagle Guard are unknown?
"No," Pan Jiajin patiently induced, "if you introduce your pair of golden eagles to the old lady, she will be very happy, and she will be happy to talk about the past of the Eagle Guard." Eagle Guard used to be the pride of the British government, and even the entire Pan family, and everyone in the Pan family was proud. Of course, you can't talk about this outside, and if outsiders know that we've lost the Eagle Guard, the reputation of the British Mansion will be greatly affected. β
Thea nodded: "Of course I know this, yes, if the old lady remembers any important clues, can she also help grandfather and father find the eagle guard?"
"But isn't it? My Thea is really smart, why didn't I think of this?" Pan Jiajin looked surprised, "Well, I hope my grandmother can really remember what the second uncle once said to her." But grandmother is old, you have to ask skillfully, don't push too hard, grandmother what reaction you remember clearly, come back to me and tell me, let's analyze and analyze together. β
Not to mention, Pan Jiajin is not exaggerating, he really got inspiration from Thea's words. They only thought that the woman in the house didn't know about Eagle Guard, so they didn't think that the second uncle Pan Rubing might also talk to his mother about Eagle Guard. After all, the great-grandfather handed over the Eagle Guard to the second uncle over to his grandfather, and it is impossible for the mother and son not to talk about it at all, and now Thea would be the best if she could sigh first.
Originally, Pan Jiajin just wanted Thea to probe the old lady's reaction and see if she talked about Eagle Guard's "color change", if Pan Jiaming found Eagle Guard, it would be impossible to say something different from the old lady. Now, he doesn't believe that Pan Jiaming can find the Eagle Guard, he hopes that Thea can find clues from the old lady's memories, maybe his grandfather can find the mystery from it and find the Eagle Guard.
Thea likes to win very much, is very interested in the Pan family's eagle guard, and is now very willing to contribute to the British government, so naturally she will not object to Pan Jiajin's request.
Zhuoma returned to the capital as she wished and began to search for people, what she never imagined was that she thought that Mr. Jin's uncle and nephew, who had already died in the arrow array, were not only alive, but also found the trace of the young master one step ahead of her.
No, Master Jin, who has arrived in Los Angeles for a day, is chatting with his buddies for a snack. Mr. Jin, who has always been good at chatting with strangers and talking to them, soon learned that the shopkeeper of Dim Sum was also a slave who was sold in the Kaesong slave distribution market, and then Boss Jin, who was "painstakingly looking for his nephew who was sold", asked Mr. Guo to sit down and listen to him with sympathy.
Boss Jin made up the story very smoothly: "My brother died on the battlefield, and his ruthless stepwife hooked up with an adulterer to frame my nephew, I heard that he beat people stupidly by hitting him on the head with a thick stick, and then quietly betrayed him." Our father and son went out to do business and came home to find out that their nephew had been sold, and they inquired everywhere about the situation at that time, knowing that the nephew was not only sold, but also probably crazy and stupid, and was worried and angry, what kind of place can a fool be sold?
In this way, while doing some convenient business, we inquired about the news of our nephew on the way, and found out in the slave market in Kaesong that a young man in Los Angeles happened to buy a group of slaves in the slave market at that time, including a male slave who looked crazy and stupid and didn't remember anything, so we quickly found Los Angeles. I just heard the guy say that the shopkeeper was bought by the master's family at that time, and I can't help but bother you. β
Shopkeeper Guo was secretly frightened, didn't this guest describe Mo Forget? Could it really be that Mo Forget's family came to him? Looking at this guest's appearance, it didn't look like a lie.
"What is the appearance of Boss Jin's nephew, and what are the obvious characteristics on his body?" asked the shopkeeper Guo after being silent for a while. It's so coincidental that someone will find some snacks, and he has to guard against it. But when it comes to the origin of his life that he can't forget, he can't completely ignore it, right? How sad is it for a person to forget his past and not know his origin?
Master Jin secretly said that there was a door, and hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, my nephew looks like his father, tall and handsome, about a head and a half taller than me, with big eyes, double eyelids, and a high nose bridge. By the way, my nephew has a big mole in the middle of the back of his neck, and since he was a child, we have said that he has a backer in his life, and his luck will not be bad, but we never thought that he would be ...... Hey, I want to find him now, make sure he's safe, even if it's really stupid, I don't care, otherwise I don't know how I'm going to see my eldest brother and sister-in-law in a hundred years! )
