It was obviously a question, but the tone was very affirmative, Yan Congmu looked back at him, and the atmosphere was slightly condensed.

Yan Congyu shook his head calmly: "According to the dossier, the thirty-four members of the Qi family found thirty-two corpses, and the remaining two bodies that were not found were the bodies of young children, which had been mixed with the collapsed roof beams, but because the investigation was unfavorable at that time, they did not rummage carefully, and now they will not be able to find them all a long time ago." ”

"How can you be sure that all that is left are the corpses of young children?"

Yan Congyu asked him rhetorically: "How can a one- or two-year-old child escape?" ”

"Yes." Yan Congmu looked at him for a while, as if considering the credibility of his words, and only then did he agree, "When I first checked, it was perfunctory, and I didn't even have a list of specific names of the deceased, and it was not clear who was dead or alive, and even if he escaped, there was no way to know, since this was the case, there was no need to investigate." ”

Yan Congmu's words seemed to be a bit deliberate, Yan Congyu did not react, but just talked about the investigation of the case: "If there is a prescription to keep, it is necessary to investigate." ”

Hearing him say this, the smile on Yan Congmu's face gradually became stronger: "Eleven, it's been a few days since Miss Qi came to your house." ”

Yan Congyu happened to look out of the door, and said calmly: "She said that she has found a cure for her cough." ”

"Looks like that's a good arrangement."

Yan Congyu didn't answer, and the brothers stood at the door, each with their own thoughts.

The cold wind gusted, and the cold wave did not go and winter came.

In the distance, several imperial doctors in the Qianqing Palace were discussing the emperor's condition, outside the house, Zhao Wangye and other princes had been here for a few days, everyone's faces did not look very good, the tenth prince Yan Conghe had just come back from the mourning hall, and after standing next to Zhao Wangye, his body shook, and his eyelids had already fought a few times, and he asked in a low voice: "How is it?" ”

Seeing that his expression was so obvious, Prince Zhao also didn't care about him, and looked towards the closed room: "I haven't come out yet." ”

"It's been two hours."

As soon as the words fell, the door opened, and several imperial doctors led by Imperial Physician Lu walked out, and the expressions on their faces were not relaxed. But when Imperial Physician Qi came out later, he had a different look, and under careful discernment, Imperial Physician Lu's face was slightly red, and he seemed to be a little angry.

When they went out, Yan Conghe faintly heard the words "take risks", "try" and "damage", he looked at Zhao Wangye suspiciously, the latter didn't know what these imperial doctors meant, and he didn't leave a word after half a day's effort?

The emperor didn't wake up, and if he woke up, he might not summon them, Yan Conghe couldn't sit still, and after looking at the inner hall several times, he whispered: "I'll go to the mourning hall to take a look." ”

The original sullen atmosphere was somewhat eased by what he said, and King Zhao looked at him and said with a smile: "I have to go back and take a look after a while, Concubine Qi is really a blessing." ”

Yan Conghe didn't blush, he just felt sorry for Min Hua and knelt for a few days, anyway, there was nothing to do here, so he said cheekily: "I'll take a look at the ninth sister-in-law for the ninth brother, didn't she also catch the cold a few days ago." ”

King Zhao couldn't cry or laugh, this was the reason why he was dangling back and forth like this? Originally, they were supposed to be in the mourning hall, but because their father was sick, they came to the Qianqing Palace to serve the sick, and he was okay and went back and forth freely.

When King Ding on the side heard him say this, he smiled and said: "It's okay, the tenth brother stopped by to take a look at the poppy beauty for me, she has only been out of confinement for a few days, and it has been very hard these days." ”

"It's still the second brother who knows that it hurts." Yan Conghe scolded King Zhao by the way, King Zhao was helpless against him, among the brothers, there are two brothers like the second brother who hides all the beauties in the house, and there are also ten brothers who are so favored by one, and there are eleven people who can't accommodate a maid in the house, some people love beauties, and some people naturally love the country.

So King Zhao glared at him angrily and said, "Okay, don't go back and forth, lest people take it." ”

Yan Conghe left, the hall was quiet again, the look on King Zhao's face turned from a smile to a slight condensation, he quickly looked around at everyone, Imperial Doctor Lu is still not clear how they discussed, Eleven and Starling are not there, I didn't hear Lao Shi say it, then it is not in the mourning hall, they are not brainless people, where will it be at this time.

The sky outside the temple was dreary, and it was almost evening, and the sky was dark.

Shen Guifei took advantage of this to go back to Xiyi Palace, and the first thing she did when she sent someone to Kunhe Palace was to find King Yu, and the first thing she said when she saw her son half an hour later was: "This time it was really a mistake." ”

Without waiting for Yan Congyu to speak, Shen Guifei took a sip of tea that moistened her throat and said regretfully: "Your father has already nodded, and the holy decree has been drafted, but this urgent matter has happened, and your marriage will have to be postponed for a year." ”

The emperor promised her before, Yu'er's marriage is up to her, and she agreed to come that day, originally she thought that the end of the year would be set, and the marriage could be done at the beginning of next year, she counted everything into it, but she didn't expect that this menacing cold wave would take away the queen mother's life at once, which was too sudden.

"The grandparents of the people who have passed away and the grandchildren must still keep filial piety, and this royal family is not avoidable." Shen Guifei sighed, there are also people who have quietly set up family affairs, but it won't work here, "If it is decided within 100 days, it will be deliberate." ”

A few years after entering the palace, Shen Guifei realized that truth, everything in the palace must be current affairs, otherwise the night will be long and dreamy, and it will be a change in the blink of an eye.

Yan Congyu was silent for a while: "It'll be decided after the year." ”

Shen Guifei looked at him for a while, stumbling all the way, and there were still ups and downs: "She is the medical daughter of Anle Hall, and she has been in the house for a few days, so she will be given to you by her mother, and it will not hurt to give her a name later." ”

Yan Congyu frowned slightly: "It's not appropriate." ”

Seeing him like this, Shen Guifei didn't say anything about it anymore: "Your father is not in good health now, so you don't go to Taihe Palace." ”

Originally, the ministers in the court were pressing, the emperor's body was going to go on like this, and the matter of establishing the prince was imminent, the more at this time, the more Shen Guifei didn't want her son to participate in it, what King Zhao was thinking, and what was the mind of Taihe Palace, Shen Guifei was also very clear, the queen mother left, and the He family had to move if she didn't move.

"When the affairs of the Queen Mother are dealt with, I will go and beg your father to let you go to the fief."

"Father won't agree."

Shen Guifei's face turned pale: "If he doesn't agree, then the Shen family can help you, and you can also fight." ”

————————————————————————————-

On November 23, the day of the Queen Mother's funeral, the frost fell on the imperial mausoleum, and the windless sky was white and foggy.

It was evening when he came back from outside the imperial mausoleum, Qi Xiangsi returned to Qi Mansion, drank the hot ginger soup cooked by Han's mother after bathing, and sat on the couch and looked at the peony flower cluster screen on the opposite side and was distracted.

Yu Shi came in with shredded chicken porridge: "Girl, eat a little while it's hot, there is still medicinal food stewed in the kitchen, which was personally ordered by the second master to make it, and it will be delivered later." ”

Qi Xiangsi came back to his senses: "He went home?" ”

"I'm back, the second master will come back half an hour after the girl comes back."

The emperor's body has not fully recovered, and Qi Henian did not stay in the palace. Thinking of this, Qi Xiangsi hurriedly got up: "Change my clothes for me." ”

Sure enough, not long after she changed her clothes, Qi Henian sent someone to invite her.

When she arrived at the study, Qi Xiangsi entered the house, Qi Henian saw her come in, and her right hand holding the letter naturally flipped it down, got up and asked the steward to read the tea, and said with an easy-going smile: "I've been tired these days." ”

Qi Henian lost a lot of weight under the busy days in a row, and the signature smile on his originally stocky face also looked a little insincere, Qi Xiangsi shook his head: "What are you looking for me for?" ”

"There are a few merchants from the south, all of whom are engaged in the trading of medicinal materials, and it just so happens that Yanlin and they are not here, so you can go with me to take a look." Qi Henian looked at her after finishing speaking, as if he wanted to find something from her face.

Qi Xiangsi smiled slightly: "Okay." ”

......

It was already dark when I left the house, and I arrived at the restaurant half an hour later.

The vicinity of Jinqiao is not as lively as in the past, although the teahouses and restaurants along the street are open, but because of the funeral of the queen mother, there is no singing and noise in the city these days, and the people who come and go on the street are also in a hurry.

Qi Xiangsi got down from the carriage and followed Qi Henian into the restaurant, and the shopkeeper took them to the backyard. There are several boxes set up here, two of which are lit up, and there are figures outside the door, after walking across the small bridge, Qi Xiangsi looked up and saw a familiar silhouette, it was Ji Zihe.

After settling the guess in her heart, Qi Xiangsi was not as nervous as when she first came, she walked towards the box and looked at Ji Zihe, who turned around.

The smile on Ji Zihe's face paused slightly, then stretched out, and strode towards Qi Henian: "Master Qi, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Qi Henian greeted with a smile: "It's been a long time, Ji Gongzi." ”

"Just now I asked my father, who introduced us to such a large amount of business, and invited us all to Kyoto, it turned out to be you, Master Qi." Ji Zihe glanced at Qi Xiangsi, said very loudly, turned around and gave way to Qi Henian, looking enthusiastic and happy, "Miss Qi is also here, come on, please go first." ”

Ji Zihe loudly reminded her that there was not only the Ji family in the house, was her cousin also there? Qi Xiang thought about it and felt that it was wrong, if his cousin was here, Brother Ji would not have prompted so deliberately, and there were others.

The moment she entered the door, Qi Xiangsi was distracted for a moment, and she felt strange to the two middle-aged men standing at the table, until the man in the dark blue robe looked at her, Qi Xiangsi felt that he was similar to his mother's relatives, and he was also his own relative. Soon, she turned her gaze to Fan Zhu by the door with a calm expression, and Qi Henian invited them all.

"Master Fan, Master Ji." Qi Henian greeted them with a smile, and the two of them reacted, and the compliments and politeness in the business field were quickly put on the table, and they invited him to sit down with a smile, and asked the shopkeeper at the door to start serving.

Because someone pulled the strings and said that they could cooperate with the people in the capital and buy and sell medicinal materials in the palace, they were invited to Beijing. Only after meeting did they know that it was Qi Henian, but these didn't matter, the people who did business could start talking, even if Qi Xiangsi was present, even if Fan Linyuan's eyes looked at her from time to time, it didn't affect their discussion of the sale of medicinal materials.

Until the guy served a famous dish in Yongzhou, Qi Henian smiled and invited them to try it: "Brother Fan, Brother Ji, this is a famous dish in Yongzhou, many years ago I went out to travel, and I didn't forget when I tasted it when I passed through Yongzhou South County, and the chef in this Manjiang Building is also from Yongzhou, and he does it the most authentic." ”

Fan Zhu's chopsticks were stunned, and when he raised his head and looked at the opposite side, Qi Xiangsi was picking up the chopsticks and sandwiching a piece of meat stewed taro into the bowl, this is a famous dish in Nanxian County, Yongzhou, and it is also a dish that he often appeared on the table in the two years of Qi's house, Acacia and Citron love to eat.

He was worried, Qi Xiangsi ate three pieces in a row, and only stopped when her throat was about to blister, she picked up the handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of her mouth, raised her head to look at Qi Henian, who was chatting about Yongzhou affairs: "Second uncle, I think this dish is not very authentic, I ate this when I was in Yongzhou, and the chef over there made it authentic." ”

Everyone looked at her, and Fan Linyuan took this opportunity to ask, "Miss Qi has been in Yongzhou?" ”

"Stayed." Qi Xiangsi said lightly, "I haven't been in a restaurant, but I've tasted it in the alley outside the restaurant." ”

Fan Linyuan didn't understand her words at first, and suddenly thought of what she said when she tasted it in the alley, his face changed slightly, and Ji Zihe, who was sitting diagonally opposite, saw this, picked up the cup in his hand and toasted Qi Henian: "Master Qi, I haven't thanked you for helping us with such a big matter." ”

Qi Henian picked up the cup and refused: "It's uncertain whether it will be successful or not, but I don't dare to take it." ”

"Whether it succeeds or not is another matter, it is already a great help for you to connect in it, how can this glass of wine be enough to express gratitude, if it is successful, the profit will be small for you." Ji Zihe took a sip of the wine in the cup and looked at Qi Henian with a smile.

He couldn't hold it back after everyone else had done it, Qi Henian smiled and drank a cup: "That's also the credibility you have saved over the years." ”

Ji Zihe's glass of wine alleviated Fan Linyuan's question just now, but how could Qi Henian, who had already made arrangements, let go of the opportunity so simply, he put down the cup and raised his hand to invite Fan Linyuan to taste the food: "I heard that Brother Fan moved to Zhuzhou from Yongzhou, but I don't know where Brother Fan is from Yongzhou." ”

"I used to live in Yongzhou City, and this was many years ago." Fan Linyuan smiled and waved his hand, "If you want me to taste this dish, I'm afraid it's not allowed." ”

"Then there are still relatives in Yongzhou?"

"I have no relatives, I have all moved to Zhuzhou, just a few distant relatives, I haven't been in touch for many years, and now I have already broken off the relationship."

The two of them were drinking and chatting, and Ji Zihe was terrified when he heard it, Uncle Fan didn't know that Fan Zhu had been investigating the Qi family all these years, and the smiling tiger-like person in front of him was obviously a murderer, and he knew everything about the Fan family, but he still talked and laughed and asked Uncle Fan about his family.

What did he say about bridging and matchmaking business, vaguely resigning the identity of the inviter in advance, and bringing Acacia, what did he want to do?

Qi Henian brought the topic from his family to business again, and then talked about Qi Xiangsi to Master Ji: "This child is obsessed with studying medicine, and he has talent, and after studying in Tai Hospital for three years, he can now be on his own, so I brought her today." Speaking of which, she and Ji Gongzi should know each other, before my niece got married, Ji Gongzi chatted with her quite well. ”

Master Ji, who didn't know the truth, naturally looked at Qi Xiangsi with appreciation, just like the reason that Ji Zihe used to dispel Qi Henian's suspicions, for a businessman like the Ji family, it is very difficult to find a woman from an official family who is well versed in medical science.

"It's not easy for women to study medicine, it's a blessing that the Qi family can support it, Brother Fan, what do you say." Master Ji looked at Fan Linyuan, who smiled faintly, "Miss Qi has been to Yongzhou, isn't it the same as Master Qi. ”

"She was young when I went." Qi Henian smiled, "She was born when my third brother was appointed in Huizhou, and she was only brought back to Kyoto three years ago, and the Qi family also has some business in Huizhou and Yongzhou, and this child has traveled a lot with the doctor in the hospital." ”

Qi Henian brushed over Qi Xiangxi's past in Yongzhou, with a smile on his face, he picked up the cup and rubbed it gently, his eyes fell on a few people opposite, except for Master Ji, the other three expressions couldn't hide their strange emotions, it seemed that they and Minying were old acquaintances.

"At a young age, he did this, which is comparable to many men." Maybe it was the word medicine that touched Fan Linyuan, he glanced at Qi Xiangxi, and then smiled and saluted Qi Henian, "As an elder, Master Qi should be very proud." ”

Qi Henian was very happy to hear such a compliment: "Speaking of which, the Fan family has been in the medicinal material business for so many years, Master Fan should have met a lot of doctors." ”

They are all smart people, Fan Linyuan heard the meaning: "What did Master Qi say?" ”

"As you know, Tai Hospital is now recruiting talented doctors, and if you are lucky enough to be recruited, you will definitely be able to get a half-official position. In this way, more people will be saved, and it will be of great benefit to you. ”

Qi Xiangsi held the chopsticks in his hand and trembled slightly, and his words sounded very familiar. Seven years ago, the Tai Hospital had recruited a large number of private doctors, and Qi Henian traveled everywhere and used these words to convince many doctors with extraordinary medical skills, and he also said the same thing to his grandfather and father.

But it's really a matter of saving people, and when she arrived in Kyoto City and entered the Tai Hospital, she found that these doctors recruited were just a nice title of Tai Doctor, in fact, they had a low status in the Tai Hospital, and when there was an epidemic everywhere, they were the first people to rush out, and they were given a little pension when they died, and the reason for recruiting them was that the high emperor wanted to live a little longer.

And now, Qi Henian still has to use these righteous and awe-inspiring words to cover their words.

Master Ji and Fan Linyuan looked at each other, and Master Ji nodded: "If they can enter the Tai Hospital, this will be an opportunity for them." "The doctor is a skill, and the doctor is an official.

Fan Linyuan doesn't think so: "There are a lot of people in Zhuzhou, but everyone has their own ambitions, and they probably just want to be a doctor." ”

"Master Fan's words are wrong, it is difficult to study medicine, if you want to become an official and become a knight, why not take another shortcut, this is just for the sake of the people of Dawn."

Ji Zihe secretly vomited in his heart: He is sanctimonious, and he has never seen such a hypocritical person.

An hour later, late at night, everyone left the restaurant to say goodbye at the door, and there were only a few people on the street at this time, which seemed extraordinarily quiet.

Master Ji drank a little too much, and after sending it to the carriage, Qi Henian said to Fan Linyuan: "Master Fan should be the first time to come to Kyoto City, I heard that you brought Mrs. Fan too, you should rest for two days after the boat and car, and then we should let us do our best to be a landlord and ask the insider to take you around for a while." ”

Fan Linyuan hurriedly waved his hand and refused, with a little drunkenness: "How dare you bother, Fan Zhu has been here a few times before, just let him take him out for a walk, Master Qi is busy, don't be so troublesome." ”

"Then how can it be done, Master Fan, you are welcome, you go back to rest before it gets early, and invite you to talk about today's affairs in detail another day." After that, Qi Henian beckoned to Qi Xiangsi, "Minying, when the time comes, you and your second aunt will entertain Mrs. Fan and them." ”

Qi Xiangsi looked at Fan Linyuan and said lightly.

————————————————————————————————

The stone path, the walls on both sides are close together, and the sound of the car wheel is particularly loud.

The carriage was very quiet, the father and son had not spoken a word since they got into the carriage, Fan Zhu sat near the carriage door, his hand on the board of the handrail and moved for a while.

Fan Linyuan looked at his son, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and he stopped talking.

The wagon rolled across the uneven ground, the carriage swayed, and father and son spoke almost simultaneously.

"Dad, this is a Hongmen feast."

"How could Miss Qi be lovesick."

Fan Zhu turned around, and Fan Linyuan's eyes were very sober. I haven't seen him for many years, and I may not be sure at first glance, but how could Fan Linyuan not recognize his niece after a night, and there is another meaning for him to ask, how can there be still people alive in the Qi family.

"Not long after we moved out, Acacia went to Wanxian to find us, I don't know about this, and my father and mother don't know either?"

Fan Linyuan's face darkened: "You are questioning me and your mother." ”

"With your habits, it is impossible for us to move away from Wanxian in a hurry without leaving one person down, and you must know that Acacia went to Wanxian to find us." Fan Zhu felt tired, "You can't imagine how much she has suffered over the years, so Dad, you should assume that you don't know her and don't know who she is." ”

"In this way, you have been checking her whereabouts all these years, and you are running around for the Qi family."

"My sons are useless, if I had known that they were still alive, I would have tried my best to find them." Fan Zhu was sad when he thought of those things, if he knew that they were still alive seven years ago, why would he let their sister and brother be separated, and why would he let Acacia suffer so much, "Dad doesn't care about his aunt's family, but his son cares a lot." ”

Fan Linyuan blushed angrily: "Nonsense, who said I don't care!" ”

"If you care, how can you ignore it for so many years."

"What do you know, the Qi family's accident is not as simple as you think."

"Thirty-two people were killed overnight, this matter is not simple anywhere, my father just wanted to say that my aunt's family was offended before suffering from this catastrophe, and I was worried that the Zhou family would be implicated because of this, so I changed my name and surname and left Wanxian, if I left, I left, why make excuses!"

The father and son in the narrow carriage confronted each other angrily, and there had been disputes about the Qi family before, but this was the first time that the quarrel was so bad, Fan Zhu directly buttoned this "ruthless" hat on his father's head, regardless of family affection, and was unkind.

"Presumptuous!" Fan Linyuan was so angry that he clutched his chest and gasped, "Why do you think your mother and I should leave Wanxian, in case something happens to the Zhou family, what should you do, will you lose more people's lives." ”

"Do you really think that you can live in peace by moving out of Wanxian?" Fan Zhu pointed to the meeting gift given by Qi Henian in the carriage, "We have been watched by people for the past seven years, how can someone who has the ability to kill my aunt's family and suppress the case not have the ability to find out where we are." ”

"Do you think that Imperial Doctor Qi is sincerely here to invite you to discuss business with Uncle Ji?"

"What disappointed my son is not that you and your mother thought of self-preservation at that juncture, but that they knew that they had been to Wanxian County, and they did not have a place for them, the Qi family was kind to us, those were the only two children of the Qi family living in this world, the heart of your aunt and uncle, and your nephew and niece." Fan Zhu was dumbfounded, "It's not going to ...... It's not that there is no whereabouts of Zhi'er until now, and life and death are unknown. ”

"When my uncle was alive, you and my mother sent me to Qi's house, and they taught me about medicinal materials, and they didn't have any private hiding. After the accident of the Qi family, I can understand the arrangements made by you and your mother considering my safety, but when Acacia was only eight years old, Zhi'er was only one year old, you know, she worked as a beggar in Yongzhou for three years to survive, and was almost trafficked into the kiln, how can you bear to ignore them. ”

"Even today, you didn't recognize her in the first place because you didn't want Uncle Ji and them to know who we were. But thanks to you thinking so, Imperial Doctor Qi didn't know who she was. ”

Fan Linyuan was speechless.

The atmosphere in the carriage was very heavy, Fan Zhu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief after saying so much, he had endured it all these years, and even felt ashamed of what his father and mother had done back then, he couldn't do anything in the past, and now the only thing he could do was to pretend that he didn't know Acacia and didn't know who she was.

"Dad, if you still care about your family, your aunt, and you want Acacia to live, you should have never seen her today, don't know her, and don't know that she is alive."

......

Mrs. Fan, who was guarding after returning to the villa where she lived, saw them coming back and hurriedly stepped forward: "How is it, the conversation went well?" ”

After asking, I noticed that the faces of her husband and son were not good-looking, Mrs. Fan sent someone to take all the things in the carriage, pulled Fan Zhu aside, patted him on the shoulder and whispered, "Quarrel with your father again?" ”

Fan Zhu didn't speak, and Mrs. Fan glared at him: "Didn't I tell you not to make your father angry, he is not in good health, why are you always disobedient, and now you have come to make a temper." ”

"Mother, it's not what you think."

"Okay, you go back and rest, I went out today and pulled several cloths, and then I will make a body for you and Xian'er, this time I went out thanks to her guarding at home, you, you have to treat others well when you go back." Mrs. Fan pushed him and asked him to go back, and then helped her husband into the house, "It's a little smaller here, but it's better than the inn, and I don't know how long we're going to live here. ”

Seeing that her husband didn't speak, Mrs. Fan sent someone to carry water, helped him take off her coat, smelled the smell of wine and sent the maid to make tea, and persuaded: "How can the father and son have such a big atmosphere, they are not happy when they go out today." ”

In the middle of the ring, Fan Linyuan looked at his wife and said, "Yuyi, do you remember those two children?" ”

Mrs. Fan was stunned for a moment, then understood his words, smiled, took out the washed clothes, and said casually: "What are you doing with this." ”

Fan Linyuan looked at her and lost his mind: "I didn't inquire about their whereabouts after burning the letter back then, and I don't know how they are doing now...... Occasionally, in my dreams at night, I always dreamed that Ah Yang asked me why I didn't help her take care of her two children. ”

"I burned the letter, and I proposed to move away from Wanxian, and I was the one who changed my name and surname, and I was the one who didn't let you and Zhu'er inquire." Mrs. Fan put her clothes aside and looked cold, "If she wants to ask for an explanation, she doesn't have to go to you, I don't regret this matter." ”

Different from the tone when he confronted his son in the carriage, Fan Linyuan only sighed at this time: "If only they were still alive......"

"Unlikely, the little one was only a year old." Mrs. Fan paused halfway through her words, "Even if they are still alive, it has nothing to do with us, do you still want to recognize them, they were put down seven years ago, and it is impossible to pick them up now." ”

The maid outside the house brought the tea to understand, Mrs. Fan brought it to him and put it down, and her voice slowed down: "When I moved away, I didn't know that they were still alive, and then the news came from Wanxian that someone came to the door, and if we brought them back, our efforts would be in vain, I also know that you have felt guilty about Ah Yang in your heart for so many years, but the deceased has passed away, and we who are alive must live well, just because I am selfish, I don't want to affect you and Zhu'er because of the affairs of the Qi family." ”

"I don't blame you."

"It's all gone, why do you think about this anymore, is it something that Zhu'er told you." Mrs. Fan's tone turned a little cold, "When I go down in a hundred years, their Qi family can find me to settle accounts, but now if I have to choose again, I will still do that." ”

Fan Linyuan's mind was full of what his son had said, which made it difficult for him to say what he said, the fewer people who knew about seeing Acacia today, the better, but Master Naqi said that he would invite his wife to travel another day, which would inevitably cause more trouble, and he couldn't let her see the child.

Thinking of this, Fan Linyuan said in a deep voice: "You pack up your things, and we will go back to Zhuzhou in the next two days." ”

"In such a hurry? Are you negotiated? Mrs. Fan was a little confused by his left and right, not to talk about buying medicinal materials to the palace, she was going back after a night's work.

"It's because we think things are too simple, how can the business in the palace be so easy to do, if it's really so easy, how can it be our turn, after a night of Tai Chi, I think Master Qi wants us to introduce the famous doctor in Zhuzhou to him, so that he can be admitted to the Tai Hospital."

Mrs. Fan frowned slightly: "Recruit doctors?" This sounds familiar. ”

"Seven years ago, there was such news spread in the Tai Hospital, saying that it was recruiting virtuous doctors, and no one had ever been to Qi's house at that time."

Not long after this incident, the Qi family had an accident, and the couple also guessed whether it was related to the imperial court, otherwise how could they have died quietly overnight, and no one from the imperial court came to investigate afterwards.

Fan Linyuan's words worked very well, and Mrs. Fan began to worry about her husband and son: "We have been in the medicinal herb business for so many years, and naturally we know many doctors, so I will ask someone to clean it up, and if we don't do this business, let's go back to Zhuzhou." ”

Things are far from being as simple as they thought, before they came, they were warmly invited and given enough sweetness, and after they came, they found that it was difficult to leave. Early the next morning, Mrs. Fan had just ordered someone to clean up, and before she could ask her son to prepare, a visitor came to the small courtyard, who was the steward of the Qi family medical hall, and invited Fan Linyuan and Fan Zhu to go to the place where the Qi family planted medicinal herbs.

This time, I didn't come back after dark, only someone came back to keep safe, saying that the Zhuangzi who planted medicine was far away from the city, and I couldn't come back after dark, so I would come back tomorrow.

And early the next morning, Mrs. Fan received a post from the Qi family, inviting her and Mrs. Ji to go to the Danfeng Garden under the Zhenshui Temple tomorrow.

Mrs. Fan was a little uneasy when she took the post, and she waited until the afternoon when she didn't see her husband and son come back, Mrs. Fan couldn't sit still, asked someone to prepare the car, and immediately went to Mrs. Ji's place.

......

Since the cold wave hit, the sky in Kyoto City has not been opened, and the sky will get dark very quickly in the evening, and the maid who came to pass in the courtyard of Siyi has just left, and Qi Xiangsi has been informed that he will go to Danfeng Garden with the Wang family early tomorrow morning to accompany Mrs. Ji and Mrs. Fan.

In the past two days, knowing where his cousin and they lived, Qi Xiangsi did not look for it, nor did he send someone to contact them, but only stayed quietly in the house for two days.

Qi Henian has not stopped monitoring and suspicion of the Fan family over the years, and bringing her over is nothing more than thinking that she is a person sent by the Fan family, if such suspicions are established, then the Fan family must have something to know about the Qi family's case before they will find someone to infiltrate the Qi family.

At the moment, my cousin and they are probably surrounded by guards, and if she goes, it will be confirmed that the Fan family knows about it, and then my cousin and they will be in danger. And tomorrow, what will be the reaction of my aunt when she sees her?

"Girl, it's cold, let's close the window." Jade entered the house, gently closed a window, and took the Yulian stalk rice porridge from Lilac's hand, "You didn't eat lunch either, this is what Mother Han just cooked, you eat a little." ”

"Jade, how many taels of silver do you still have there?"

Yushi came over with the money box and took out a small account book from it: "In the past few years, the girl has been eating and living in the Tai Hospital, and the expenses here are not large, the remaining fifty taels of silver, as well as the New Year's money given by the hospitals, and the old lady and Mrs. reward, there are also one hundred and forty taels." ”

"You have put away the money." Qi Xiangsi calculated the silver taels on his hand, "If I don't come back tomorrow, you can divide some of this silver to Lilac and Han's mother, and you can keep the rest, redeem it for yourself, and send the five hundred taels of silver to the store in Jinqiao and hand it over to Xiaoliu and them." ”

"Don't scare me, girl." Jade was stunned, and his eyes turned red immediately, what kind of words did he say, as if he was explaining the future.

"I mean just in case." Qi Xiangsi smiled, "I plan more, so that I won't be caught off guard when things come, and it's not a bad thing to arrange it early." ”

"Girl, don't talk about this, if you can't get it back, I don't want this silver." Jade gently pushed the box, "Ming'er, I'll go with you." ”

"What kind of stupid words, what's wrong with redeeming yourself, if you don't want to go home, go to the Yuwang Mansion to find Lu Qin, for the sake of my face, the Yuwang Mansion will definitely take you in." Qi Xiangsi stuffed the silver ticket to her, "Jade, I'll be fine, but I must have the worst plan so as not to mess up." ”

"Why don't you look for Lord Yu." Jade refused to accept the money, the girl had never said such a thing anywhere before, but since her identity was revealed, the girl's situation has become more and more difficult, and the girl has often wandered in the past two days, and she has seen it in her eyes.

Qi Xiangsi looked down at the chain on his wrist, and his lips moved slightly: "Jade, I'm afraid I'll let him down." ”

The queen mother was funeral, the emperor was sick, and the palace and court were in chaos at the moment, and he could be slightly mottled when he entered the palace and cried for a few days, so he couldn't be distracted anymore.

Yushi's eyes widened: "Girl, you and the Lord Yu are the people who have given their lives." ”

Qi Xiangsi smiled: "That's why I did my best to protect him, and the best way to protect him right now is not to bother him." ”

"Whatever you plan, girl, I must go with her tomorrow." Jade stuffed the silver ticket into her hand, and also made up her mind, Qi Xiangsi was stunned, Lilac ran in outside the house, panting and said, "Girl, someone from Yuwang's Mansion is here, and he said that he wants to take the girl back to Yuwangfu." 166 Reading Network
