Chapter 120: Mountains and Rivers
As soon as the emperor left, Fu Qinglin stood up and left Qingwu Courtyard a little abruptly. Fu Yanxi, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, looked at his slightly vain steps with some relief, and couldn't wait to see the day he was destroyed.
Fu Yanxi slowly walked out of the room and fell into deep thought.
Today, the emperor came to the Hou Mansion, which she felt was a very incredible thing. My father had no real position in the court, and according to my father's words, he stood in a small corner of the main hall when he went to court. Although this was largely due to the power of the Marquis of Dingbei, it also represented the emperor's distrust of Fu Qingyan.
However, the emperor came to see Fu Qingyan in person, although it was to warn Fu Qinglin, but his performance and tone were too weird. Since I want to show my care for the courtiers, with the emperor's city, it is not a problem to speak more earnestly, but this son of heaven is not shocked and seems to be indifferent, which makes Fu Yanxi feel a little eager to cover up. Since the last palace banquet, Fu Yanxi has had an intuition, it seems that the relationship between Fu Qingyan and the emperor is very delicate, although nothing can be seen on the surface, but Fu Yanxi has such a strong feeling.
There are also a few points that are very strange, the emperor seems to have known about the poisoning of Fu Qingyan and Mo Lingyun for a long time, but obviously the imperial doctor has not reported it, isn't it the emperor who has any eyeliner in the Hou Mansion? Moreover, the emperor treats Fu Qingyan and Fu Qinglin so differently, it shouldn't be because of the simple inheritance of orthodoxy with the title, could it be that the emperor also knows about Fu Qinglin and King Hengyang?
For the first time, Fu Yanxi felt that the emperor was so unfathomable.
"Miss, I called Mama Wang to the wing, look?" Mo Shu walked over and whispered, interrupting Fu Yanxi's thoughts.
"Okay, let's go." Almost forgetting this stubble, Fu Yanxi took the ink book and went straight to the wing.
"The slave has seen the eldest lady." As soon as Mama Wang saw Fu Yanxi coming in, she turned around and saluted.
"Mama, sit down." Fu Yanxi sat down and motioned for Mama Wang to sit too.
"This ......" Mama Wang hesitated.
"Sit down, there are no outsiders now, just let's gossip." Fu Yanxi said.
"Yes." Mama Wang sat down nervously.
Fu Yanxi glanced at the ink book, and the ink book walked out knowingly and closed the door.
"Mama, I called you here to ask you something." Fu Yanxi went straight to the point. "I heard this morning that your mother-in-law used to serve her grandmother more than thirty years ago and seemed to be doing well, and I heard that she was confused. So I thought that after all, I had done things in the Hou Mansion, so I could talk about any difficulties. ”
"Huh? Don't bother Miss! Mama Wang hurriedly waved her hand. The slave and the head of the house have enough money to honor her, and there is no difficulty in the family. Miss, the slave said that it wasn't for this, the slave ......"
"Don't be nervous, Mama, I'm just asking. To be honest, the housekeeper is the second aunt, and now the father and mother are ...... I always think that if I can honor my grandmother more, I will be ...... in the future Mama also knows that Mama Chen, who is now next to my grandmother, is a person who is high and low, so I thought about asking Mama. Fu Yanxi said.
Mama Wang also understood the meaning of Fu Yanxi's words, and her heart suddenly softened, and she felt that this eldest lady was also pitiful, so she said: "Eldest Miss, it's not that the slave maid Naqiao refuses to help the eldest lady, there is really no way to help." My mother-in-law was only serving an aunt of the old marquis, and she was really not familiar with the old lady. ”
"How so? But Mama said this morning that your mother-in-law was confused and still said that the old lady is affectionate and righteous, what? Fu Yanxi continued to follow the good path.
"This is indeed what the slave maid mother-in-law said, the slave maid remembers that when she first got married, the mother-in-law was not confused, it stands to reason that there are a lot of mother-in-law in the house at the age of thirty or forty, and the slave maid felt that the slave maid had to hand over the money every month It was very bad, so she asked a few more words, only to know that the mother-in-law was in her twenties and didn't know what was wrong, so she didn't do things in the house. Later, after a few years, the father-in-law was gone, and only the mother-in-law was left alone to pull the two sons. When I was not yet fifty, I was confused, and I didn't remember anything, so I would say that the old lady was affectionate and righteous. The slave maid still wondered, she had never served the old lady, how did she know that the old lady was affectionate and righteous, and once asked casually, I heard her say that the old lady gave her a lot of money to let her live, and the slave and maid thought, can give a large sum of money to a subordinate, but is it not affectionate and righteous. Mama Wang gushed endlessly.
"You mean, although your mother-in-law is confused, she can still talk?" Fu Yanxi asked again.
"It's not always possible to talk, sometimes the donkey's lips are not the horse's mouth, and sometimes the question is wrong, and she still beats people." Mama Wang said with a smile.
"I see. Does that grandmother know which aunt your mother-in-law serves? Fu Yanxi asked.
"This slave doesn't know, the slave and maid only came to the house to work after marrying into the Ma family more than ten years ago, and the housekeeper is the manager of the shop, so I don't know much about the things in the house." Mama Wang replied.
"Oh. Okay, I got it. Mama, today's matter, please don't talk about it, after all, it's ......," Fu Yanxi said.
"Eh, eh, slave understands." Mama Wang nodded yes.
More than 30 years ago, the Zhang family served his grandfather's aunt, but the old lady gave the Zhang family a large sum of money, and the Zhang family lived unharmed for so many years. In the end, the old lady really has no secrets and handles, and the cause of death of her grandmother Duanyang County Lord is also normal; Or did Zhang not know about it? But what do you say about leaving the Hou Mansion at a young age? What about that money? The old lady will be the kind of master who is sympathetic to the subordinate, and there must be something wrong with this.
Throughout the day, in addition to taking care of Mo Lingyun, Fu Yanxi was thinking about the Zhang family over and over again, but she couldn't find a breakthrough.
The booklet in his hand was about to be torn out, but nothing was found. Things are stuck in a situation where there is no way out.
At night, Fu Yanxi sighed in the faint candlelight, holding the roster. Suddenly, he heard a soft sound at the window, Fu Yanxi was startled, and immediately thought of a possibility.
She stood up with a little excitement, and suddenly felt at a loss, walked to the mirror, straightened her clothes and hair, and walked towards the door a little nervously.
Ziqin and Zhihua in the outhouse were sleeping again, Fu Yanxi wanted to come these days and the four of them were running on both sides of Qingwuyuan and Yuxuan, it was estimated that they were tired, and it seemed that they should not let them be on duty all night in the future.
Gently opening the door, Fu Yanxi looked out. Sure enough, I saw a figure reflected on the back wall.
