400. Secrets
Chanyi hurriedly stepped forward to take the holy decree, and the waiter said: "Congratulations to the lord of Evian County for being crowned, you can remember to go to Ci'an Palace to kowtow and thank you." Chanyi suddenly realized that it must have been Princess Guangning who interceded in front of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother would raise their family like this.
Mrs. Xia smiled and rewarded the waiter with several red seals, "There is Father-in-law Lao who runs this trip." ”
The chamberlain was not polite to Mrs. Xia, took the seal with a smile, and took the person away.
Old Madam Xia looked at Chanyi lovingly and said, "We are still blessed to be happy in the evening, this is still the first county lord of our family." ”
Xie Shi went to support Mrs. Xia with a smile on his face, and the joy in his heart couldn't be hidden: "The daughter-in-law is still worried that the rumors of Yunfu before will be blamed by the Queen Mother, but I didn't expect that the Queen Mother would give our family such a big face, and the daughter-in-law handed a sign to the palace to kowtow to the Queen Mother to thank her." ”
Old Madam Xia nodded in agreement: "They all say that our Xia family is speculative, now let's see what else they have to say!" She looked at Xia Shijing as she spoke, and found that the look on his face was not very happy, but with some annoyance, Old Madam Xia's face couldn't help but sink, "What's wrong with you?"
Xia Shijing was asked by the emperor about the rumors in the inner study this morning, he was afraid that the emperor would blame, so he tried his best to blame the Xie family, saying that it was all the idea of the woman in the house, but he was scolded by the emperor instead, saying that he was getting more and more timid, and scolded him to the point of being disgraced.
The emperor made such a will, and then he understood what the emperor meant, and he was both worried and a little annoyed that Xie Shi didn't tell him the inside story, which made him lose so much ugliness in front of the emperor.
At this time, she was asked by Mrs. Xia, so she had to hesitate and say: "It's something in the yamen, it's nothing." ”
After answering Mrs. Xia, he used this as an excuse to turn around and hurriedly go out.
Chanyi sneered in her heart, her father must have felt that he had no face to see his mother, so he left in a hurry, but he didn't want it to be noon, usually he would have gone back to the house to eat at this hour, and now he goes to the yamen again, those officials have dispersed early, but he is the only one left, I am afraid that he will even have to use lunch outside, but these have nothing to do with her.
She had no expectations for her father in her previous life, and she was just more disappointed in her life, so she didn't care, she only amused Mrs. Xia and Xie in front of her, but Mrs. Xia and Xie were in a good mood, and even said that they would hold a banquet at home to congratulate them.
When the war in the northwest subsided, the imperial court distributed a resettlement fee, and many of the victims stranded in Yunfu returned to the northwest one after another because they missed their hometown and had the money given by the imperial court.
The porridge shacks erected by various families in Yunfu City have gradually been removed, and because the victims have moved back, there is no need for porridge anymore.
The Xia family has been really lively these days, the banquet has been set up for several days, and the Deqing class has been invited to sing for several days.
Chanyi didn't have any joy in her heart, she understood that her family had used tens of thousands of taels of rice to give her the name of a county lord, and the rewards in the palace were nothing to see, and she was canonized by a county lord, grandmother and mother would definitely be more enthusiastic about her marriage, she had secretly intervened to destroy the two family affairs, if she didn't agree, she was afraid of arousing the suspicion of grandmother and mother, so she not only had no joy in her heart, but felt a little bored.
Xie Feiyun came to Xia's house as a guest, and sat with her to eat fruits and drink tea, because they were all porridge sheds together, the Xie family and the Zhu family were also rewarded.
At this moment, Xie Feiyun looked at her with a smile, and found that her appearance was a little depressed, so he reached out to pinch her cheek, and said angrily: "The good things that others envy and can't envy are given to you with a sad face, I don't know what grievances you have suffered, you are so unwilling, let others know, beware of giving you a big disrespectful charge!"
Chanyi's cheeks were pinched by her, and she begged for mercy in pain: "Sister Fei, you have a lighter hand! My face is about to be pinched by you!"
Xie Feiyun let go of her at this time, stared at her full of gloomy face, and asked, "But what's upset? Since I came, you haven't shown a real smile." ”
Chanyi sighed, but she didn't want to tell her these words, so she had to talk about something else to cover it up, "Sister Fei, I have secretly checked the previous rumors, they all came out of the Ningguo Mansion, I heard that Gu Manman counted the death of the Duchess of Ningguo on my head, and in the past six months, I have been secretly calculated by them countless times, I am really bored, but there is no way to do it once and for all......"
Xie Feiyun listened to Chanyi's words, not only did her face not look strange, but also looked around, and then whispered in her ear: "I heard that a lot of people have died in Ningguogong's mansion recently, and it seems that there is also a concubine who served Ningguo Gonggong who has also died." ”
Chanyi frowned, Gu Linlin had already returned to the Ningguo Mansion, if it was according to her mention, presumably Gu Yi should know the cause of his mother's death, could it be that this is why he acted like this?
But it doesn't make sense, no matter how Ning Guogong is, he is Gu Yi's father after all, no matter how angry he is, he shouldn't dispose of his father's things, he shouldn't understand this truth.
She felt that something was not right, and couldn't help asking, "Where did Sister Fei hear about it?"
Xie Feiyun smiled and said: "Have you forgotten? My grandmother's house and Ningguo Mansion are separated by an alley, and the little maids in my grandmother's house can often see the entry and exit of those small maids in Ningguo Mansion.
Chanyi is getting more and more strange, it stands to reason that the prince of Ning Guo is not a person who does not understand the aftermath, so many people are executed at one time, aren't you afraid of something happening?
I heard Xie Feiyun say again: "Recently, the prince of Ningguo and Wang Zimo have been very close, you know that Wang Zimo's father Wang Zhengen is the secretary of the ministry, I heard my father say that the prince of Ningguo has seen the position of the deputy general of the Shenji Battalion, and wants to dredge up and down, and he will take office as soon as the three-year filial piety period has passed." ”
Chanyi was stunned for a moment, Gu Yi was in Yan Yunwei in his last life, why did he suddenly think of going to the Shenji Camp in this life?
She couldn't help but think.
Could it be that Gu Yi had a grudge against Ning Guogong because of his mother's affairs, so he wanted to make his wings full so that he could fight against Ning Guogong?
She always felt as if she had missed something, and her brain ached for a while, and she couldn't think of a reason.
It wasn't until Xie Feiyun said goodbye and Jinxin quietly handed her a letter that she had an epiphany.
