651. Chapter 649: Ebony

When I returned to the Youran Courtyard, it was already a morning glow.

Xie Feiyun sat on the big kang facing the window, sewing small clothes with needles and threads, and the tenderness in his eyes seemed to be overflowing.

Chanyi's heart moved slightly, thinking that Chu Shaoyuan told her that day that there was a war in Fujian, and a group of people should be transferred from the Shenji Battalion.

At this time, the sister-in-law is pregnant, and I don't know how the eldest brother will explain to the sister-in-law, if you talk about opportunities, it is really a rare good time, but in the end, you will go thousands of miles away, no matter what is at home, you can't take care of it.

For a while, she was a little hesitant, if she persuaded her eldest brother not to go to Fujian, she was afraid that her eldest brother would not agree, but if it was dangerous, how could she rest assured?

Xie Feiyun heard the movement in the house, and when he looked up, he saw Chanyi standing aside stunned, a little surprised.

Is this a collapse of the conversation with my mother-in-law? Why do you frown and look worried?

She put down the needle and thread in her hand and looked at Chanyi with concern: "Did your mother-in-law say anything to make you embarrassed?"

Chanyi's drooping eyes were slightly raised, and she saw Xie Feiyun's white cheeks with a strong sense of concern, and the slender figure that was originally in the boudoir was now raised plump, which shows that the sister-in-law and the eldest brother have a good relationship, which makes her a little happy.

She smiled and said, "It's not my business. ”

Xie Feiyun said in his heart: That must be my mother-in-law's business, if it is so easy to solve, I don't have to have such a headache, but there are some words that can't be said directly to my sister-in-law, it's really a bit of a bad feeling to be a person inside and out.

So she had to smile and say softly: "There are some things that you are too worried about, let's do our best, at most, we will keep a few more eyes in the future, so as not to bother us with these things." ”

Chanyi knew that she had misunderstood her own words, so she didn't explain, just nodded and held the tea to eat.

After all, these things are still the most appropriate for the eldest brother and sister-in-law to say, especially when they are still newly married, and they told their sister-in-law in a hurry, it is inevitable that the sister-in-law will be worried, and then ask the eldest brother, for fear that the eldest brother will think that the sister-in-law bypassed him to inquire about the movements of the court outside, if the eldest brother misunderstands the sister-in-law to study the government, won't it affect the relationship between their husband and wife?

Thinking about the previous life, there were often such disputes between her and Jian Anjie, because the two brothers had some connections in the court, so sometimes when she heard the news from her brother, she couldn't help but tell Jian Anjie that this kind of thing would not happen once or twice, and there were many times, Jian Anjie was a little dissatisfied with her, thinking that she studied court politics, and later she simply didn't tell Jian Anjie, but Jian Anjie finally begged her to investigate, and now that I think about it, it is really a little disgusting.

After chatting like this and sitting for a while, when Chanyi was about to say goodbye, Xia Mingchen came back from the ya.

Xia Mingchen heard that Chu Shaoyuan accompanied Chanyi back to his parents' house, and he happened to have something to look for him, so he stretched out his hand to stop Chu Shaoyuan, who wanted to leave, and asked Xia to come in and spread the word, saying that tonight's dinner would be used at home, and after dinner, he would call Chanyi and his wife back home.

Originally, he dug out the plum wine jar under the old plum tree, and brought the Chan Yi who was about to go home, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel like laughing, even if the eldest brother became a relative, he was still so popular.

Xie Feiyun smiled and retained: "I think I haven't seen the prince for a long time, I will let the big kitchen add a few more dishes in a while, and tell the husband to drink less wine, so as not to let the prince go back with a drunken body." ”

Chanyi looked at Xie Feiyun with bright eyes: "Is it not called the prince to be full of alcohol, or is it not to call the eldest brother full of alcohol?"

Xia Mingchen loves wine, and there is no one in the house who doesn't know about this matter, from the old lady to the janitor, so Chanyi's words are clearly ridiculing Xie Feiyun.

Xie Feiyun didn't care, she was already pregnant, and she couldn't smell those strange smells, so she asked people to pass a message to Xia Mingchen, asking him to persuade him to drink less for Chanyi, so she smiled generously.

"Your unborn nephew can't smell alcohol. ”

Chanyi couldn't help but laugh, pointed at her and said, "After getting married, I have become more and more faceless and skinless!"

……

The lights in the Shuntian Mansion are bright.

Fu Yin Huang Yizheng stroked an ebony paperweight on the bookcase with one hand, and looked at it seriously with a volume of official documents in the other, and frowned frequently when he saw the surprise.

"My lord!" the staff hurriedly walked in and saluted.

Huang Yizheng raised his eyes to look at him, "How's the investigation?

The staff shook their heads, "The clue is broken, and the affairs of Mingyanlou in the past few years have not been found at all." ”

Huang Yizheng frowned deeply, and said strangely: "How can this be? Didn't you find out that Mingyanlou is a gang in the rivers and lakes? How come there are still records of things in the past few years, but there is no rumor at all over the years......?

He sensed the gaffe and quickly stopped.

The staff looked at him suspiciously, "Jade?"

Originally, Lord Fu Yin asked about the matter of the rivers and lakes to surprise him, but now he has used the Fu Zhong errand for this Ming Yan Tower, what is the origin of this Ming Yan Tower, and it makes Lord Fu Yin so taboo?

But these words, the staff did not dare to ask, he has been a staff member for more than ten years, and he has always understood the truth of self-preservation.

He carefully put back the doubts in his heart, and said respectfully: "Who can say for sure about the gangs in the rivers and lakes? The lower officials found out that Mingyanlou had been washed in blood a few years ago, maybe it was the revenge of the enemy, and maybe it was because they couldn't hold on and returned to the mountains and forests, but adults, the servants have been checking for half a month, and they are all exhausted, and recently the nineteen counties of Wuzhou are busy with spring ploughing, and the fortifications on the canal should not be ......?"

The staff wanted to remind him not to delay his business.

But Huang Yizheng only noticed his first half of the words, and shook his head silently in his heart, it is impossible, otherwise how could his daughter, who has been lost for many years, find the door?

As soon as he thought of Yu Qiufeng, he was irritable, thinking that this daughter was lost forever, who knew that it would suddenly appear in front of him in such a way? Fortunately, Liang Xingyong was suspicious of the emperor, fortunately, Liang Xingyong was questioned, and the Liang family was in decline, otherwise wouldn't it be implicated in himself?

He unconsciously picked up the paperweight in his hand and waved it in the air a few times, as if to wave away these troubles.

Seeing the staff looking at him strangely, he instantly came to his senses, and hurriedly said: "Okay, you have your own mansion to worry about other things, you go down first." ”

The staff didn't say much, nodded and withdrew.

Huang Yizheng was upset and irritable, and put the paperweight in his hand on the table, there was no felt on the table, and the smooth ebony paperweight made a crisp sound, which made Huang Yizheng more and more restless, and couldn't help but think about something over and over again.

At last he was so irritable that he walked to his desk, picked up his pen and hurriedly wrote a letter, sealed it with fire paint, summoned the guards, and repeatedly instructed: "Be sure to deliver the letterhead properly!"

The guard had never seen such a serious expression on his own adult's face, and quickly nodded in agreement.

Huang Yizheng pressed the ebony paperweight on the table on a piece of rice paper on the bookcase, and after a few glances, he walked out of the study with heavy steps and walked down the steps.

In recent days, he always has an ominous premonition, especially about this lost daughter, even if the daughter is sold to someone else's house to be a maid, or worse, she is sold to the land of fireworks, it is better than being adopted and raised by the gang.

You need to know that the rivers and lakes have always been the epitome of the imperial court, if it is really his opponent who does these things, I am afraid that this daughter is a breakthrough, how can he not be frightened!

Especially now that this daughter has disappeared suddenly, it makes his heart feel as if he has lit a cannon without a sound, and his heart hangs in mid-air, and he doesn't know when it will explode with a "bang".

……

In the study, Yu Qiufeng turned over from the beam and glanced at the bookcase.

In the study of the rich and noble, she didn't know how many times she broke into it openly and secretly, but she never came to the study of the Huang family.

She couldn't help but sneer, she knew early in the morning that she would never get out of this line of work, but she still believed her biological mother's words, which sounded emotional and reasonable, but now that she looks at it again, she is really naΓ―ve.

Over the years, I have seen countless dirty, smelly, and rotten things in the family, how can I still maintain an innocent heart, and I don't blame my junior brother for using that method to save her life.

Although Yu Qiufeng had countless thoughts in his mind, the movements of his hands were not slow at all, and the speed of rummaging through the documents was almost more skilled than those officials who had dealt with the documents all year round, and the strange thing was that there was no harsh sound.

It wasn't until she had turned over all the paperwork in the room that she stopped, and sat on the side of the bookcase.

This old thing is shrewd, and the documents are all in recent years, and there are no documents that were close to him in the past, but he has sent a lot of guards to guard them, and she thought that there was something unsightly hidden here, so she secretly turned it in, and even stayed motionless on the eaves all night.

It's really unwilling to go back empty-handed, but all the paperwork in the room is useless.

Her gaze wandered down the bookcase to the ebony paperweight pressed on the rice paper.

The old thing seems to cherish this piece of wood.

She couldn't help but reach out and pick it up, but the touch in her hand made her look change.

It's too light!

Ebony has always been heavy and thick, and it is very easy to use to make hairpins and chopsticks, but such a large piece of paperweight is very light.

She hurriedly flipped the paperweight over and examined it carefully.

The ebony of the accumulated years, the corners are polished very flat, and an old plum tree is carved on it, and under the plum tree stands a woman wearing a cloak, the woman holds an umbrella, and the umbrella even outlines a piece of plum blossoms, which is delicate and delicate.

Yu Qiufeng picked up the ebony and shook it in her ears, and the subtle sound came into her ears, and her eyes lit up.

There's something in this ebony!
