Xiao Jiu didn't know how Deputy Lieutenant Wang's ability was, but in terms of this character, she was very disdainful. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"I also heard Hongyu say before that a few years ago, there was a lot of chaos in Licheng, and there were many Bai people pretending to be among the people, and it is said that many officials' families were killed by them."

"After the death of my father, the Bai people took the opportunity to attack, and Licheng was occupied for more than two years, and the general at that time was the son of the Zhongyong Marquis's Mansion, and he had the ability to talk on paper, and he was so happy, not only did he not recover Licheng in a few years, but he was also beaten by the Bai people."

"The Marquis of Zhongyong Mansion is also a military general, but in recent generations it has declined, and he has become a civil official, but he has no real ability, and the Marquis of Zhongyong hopes that the prince can take military merits, and he also fought for a lot of effort back then, before he sent the son to Licheng to earn military merits."

"Who would have thought that he didn't have the ability to fight, but the ability to cheat was first-class...... Later, after the Marquis Zhongyong's mansion was raided, the Licheng army changed its generals again, and there was talent, but it was too greedy for money, but it finally recovered Licheng and drove the Bai people out. ”

"But since then, there have been a lot of spies left by the Bai people in Licheng, and a lot of them have been caught one after another over the years, even if the wind is calm now, I don't dare to confirm whether there are any spies left by the Bai people and have not moved."

Yan Xi simply told the events of that year, and then explained: "When I met Mrs. Wang, she was about to commit suicide, if it weren't for me, I'm afraid that Deputy Lieutenant Wang wouldn't have died as a concubine back then." ”

"Huh? What else is going on? "Xiao Jiu's gossip soul is about to burn, and she likes to watch this kind of story of beating a negative man or counterattacking the most.

Yan Xi saw that his wife was interested, so he didn't hide it, and said: "Mrs. Wang with three children, naturally can't run far, about that time, she has a will to die, she hid her three children and food and water in the cellar, and went to attract the Bai soldiers to the past, and when she ran far enough, she was ready to pull out the hairpin and kill herself, and was rescued by me when I passed by." ”

Xiao Jiu looked at Yan Xi without blinking, and had a hunch that the next content was the most exciting.

"I also overheard the words of the three children after saving Mrs. Wang for a long time, and then I knew that after Mrs. Wang hid the children at that time, she also told them that if she died, let the three children go back to their hometown to live, or go far away, don't go back to find their father."

"Oh my God!" Xiao Jiu covered his mouth and looked at Yan Xi in surprise, "So Mrs. Wang has long distrusted Deputy Lieutenant Wang, and she has been living in her hometown all these years and has never been to Licheng?" ”

"It should be like this, otherwise Mrs. Wang would not have said such a thing."

Deputy Lieutenant Wang has not made a mistake in his business, and Yan Xi naturally can't give him an errand for no reason because of his bad conduct, but he has not been promoted over the years.

After a pause, Yan Xi instructed Xiao Jiu again, and said, "Mrs. Wang came this time, but I am afraid that I heard the rumors and knew that Deputy Lieutenant Wang had a backer, and wanted to promote Aunt Hu as his wife." ”

"Backer? Can Licheng have a stronger backer than you? After Xiao Jiu asked, seeing that Yan Xi's expression was wrong, a thought suddenly crossed his mind, and he asked in surprise: "Is it a certain prince?" ”

Yan Xi nodded lightly, "It's too hidden, if it weren't for Deputy Lieutenant Wang's recent complacency, which made Aunt Hu have a lot of money to buy jewelry and clothes, I wouldn't have noticed." ”

Xiao Jiu didn't know what to say, the Sun family, who had formed a party with the prince in front of him, and a group of in-laws dared to be dealt with, and it was only a long time before another lieutenant Wang appeared who was not afraid of death to take refuge with the prince.

Just turning his head and thinking about it, Xiao Jiu began to feel sorry for Yan Xi again, these princes are going to die, and Yan Xi can't finish the matter, obviously it has now reached the truce with the Bai clan.

"I have already agreed to Mrs. Wang's invitation to go to her tea banquet in five days." Xiao Jiu frowned, "According to you, Mrs. Wang is also a smart woman, so she came to deliver the invitation in person, obviously knowing that I never go to these banquets, so she deliberately let me go to ......"

So what does Madame Wang want her to do at the banquet?

It can't be to show off that she can invite the general's wife to the banquet, right?

"Since you agreed, no matter what the purpose is, let's go and see first, Mrs. Wang is a smart person, at most she wants to take advantage of your power to suppress Aunt Hu."

"I see."

So the matter of going to the banquet was decided.

Five days later, Xiao Jiu wore a newly made spring shirt and got into the carriage to the palace.

"Madam, the slave maid has been paying attention to the movements of the palace these days, and finally knows a little news, it is said that Deputy Lieutenant Wang's heart to let Aunt Hu be his wife is very firm, and he has been making trouble in the mansion for the past few days, but Mrs. Wang has ignored it and has not let go."

"Mrs. Wang sent away her father-in-law and mother-in-law, Deputy Lieutenant Wang's only three children were also born to Mrs. Wang, Deputy Lieutenant Wang couldn't leave Mrs. Wang at all, and the three children were closer to their mother, so Deputy Lieutenant Wang had no way to take Mrs. Wang."

Hongyu said, suddenly couldn't help laughing again, and said in a low voice: "Madam, the slave maid thinks that this Mrs. Wang is a smart person, Deputy Lieutenant Wang is making trouble with her, she doesn't do anything, but she turns her head and makes up for Aunt Hu, which makes Deputy Lieutenant Wang distressed and helpless." ”

"Nature is a smart person." Xiao Jiu smiled faintly: "Aunt Hu is just a concubine, and she is a widow, and she has no heirs, so Deputy Lieutenant Wang will favor her again, as long as Mrs. Wang is always as smart as she is now, Aunt Hu is not a basis at all." ”

"What Mrs. said is that the slave maid also thinks that this Aunt Hu is too frivolous, and she dares to wear red clothes, a few days ago, Mrs. Wang just came, and she used this excuse to punish Aunt Hu for kneeling for a day."

"That's not wrong."

Aunt Hu is dignified on her face, if she was really good, she would not have let Deputy Lieutenant Wang protect her at the beginning, and she didn't pay any attention to Mrs. Wang's mother and son.

The carriage stopped not long after, and there was only one alley between the palace and the Sun family, which was narrow, and it was difficult for the carriage to enter and get out, so it stopped at the mouth of the alley.

Before he got out of the carriage, a little girl of twelve or thirteen stepped forward, saluted, and asked with a smile, "But Mrs. Yan?" ”

Xiao Jiu looked at the little girl quietly, and saw that she was young, but she was not timid at all, but showed a good upbringing, and knew that this was not the maid of the palace.

"It's a girl from the Wang family." Xiao Jiu smiled faintly, untied the jade pendant on his waist and put it in the little girl's hand, and said softly: "Take it and play with it." ”

The little girl took the jade pendant, squinted her eyes and smiled and thanked her: "Mrs. Xie." ”

He added, "Mother asked me to pick you up, and Madame, please come with me." ”
