After An Zhichen went out, he first returned to Sha Tin Lane.

The guards on the periphery of Sha Tin Lane have all been killed by officers and soldiers, and not a single one is left alive. This was what Akai commanded.

Zhang Dakui looked at An Zhichen with a gloomy face, and chuckled in his heart, saying that he came back too quickly. Well, even if a good thing doesn't happen for a while, it shouldn't be like this. Could it be that the woman disagreed, well, it must be so.

An Zhichen instructed people to seal all the books and calligraphy and paintings in the room, and not to damage them at all.

An Zhichen also gave a few instructions, and did not stay in Sha Tin Lane for a long time. He still has a lot of aftermath to deal with, where can he stay for a long time.

Zhang Dakui thought that An Zhichen was dissatisfied with his desires, so he lowered his voice and said: This girl is just undertrained, and the young general works hard, so she will be obedient. "As long as the means are used well, a chaste martyr has to become a slut, not to mention that she is not a good girl.

An Zhichen glanced at Zhang Dakui, "Okay, there is so much nonsense, those books, calligraphy and paintings are sealed, and I will be useful when the time comes." The gold, silver, and jewels were divided among the brothers. "Zhang Dakui used to be one of An Zhichen's subordinates, fought pirates together, was born and died, and was one of the people An Zhichen trusted.

Zhang Dakui smiled and said, "Good, good, good." "Following the major general is to have oil and water, it's really fat to do this ticket.

In the evening, the second old lady returned to the General Military Mansion, and the steward told the second old lady about An Zhichen's outrageous behavior today.

The steward was also worried, "Master, Young Master Chen placed that woman in the courtyard, and I can't say no." Look...... Master"

The second old lady had already gotten the news, and listened to the steward's words and said: "It's just a woman, Chen'er has taken a fancy to it, but she has an extra pair of chopsticks." "Yueyao's current identity to the outside world is a woman who can play with resale at will, if the second old lady goes to visit Yueyao in person, it will be too much to give Yueyao face.

The second master returned to the study and instructed the steward, "Go and call Akai." "It was Datong who followed An Zhichen out, and Akai is now in the General Soldier's Mansion.

The second old lady saw Akai and asked, "What is the situation today?" "The second old lady of the An family always feels that today's events are too strange. How did the messenger know that Yueyao was in Sha Tin Lane? Why help? These are all questions.

Akai told the second old lady everything that happened during the day, and Yue Yao took the copper candlestick or something, and it was even more fantastic.

The second old lady's eyes flashed, "You mean, the third girl of the Lian family can also be martial?" "An Zhichen was ordered by the emperor to investigate the affairs of Haikou this time, what is the matter, how can the second old lady of the An family not know. The second old lady of the An family did not stop An Zhichen from saving Yueyao, because after all, his fiancée was taken away, if he was indifferent, it would be too cowardly, but if something like this happened, it was okay to let the three girls of the Lian family be a noble concubine, and it was absolutely impossible for a wife. But now, the second old lady is a little hesitant, how can such a person be willing to be a concubine.

Akai nodded and said, "Well, it is said that I learned from her personal ring." Master, even the girl's personal maid ring is a person from the Jingning Marquis Mansion, and her martial arts are not bad. This is because he noticed that someone had broken into the courtyard and was seriously injured in the fight with those people. ”

The second old lady pondered for a moment and said, "What do you think of that woman's character?" ”

Akai shook his head and said, "I don't know." I thought she was gentle and lovely, but seeing how ruthless and accurate she was, I couldn't be sure. "That looks like a tigress!

The second old lady asked! "What does Miss Lian look like? What is the temperament? ”

Akai thought for a while and said, "Well, I can't say what it looks like, it's better for you to ask the young general, master." Temperament, right? I've heard from people in the Hou Mansion that even the girl has a gentle temperament and is very patient, but she lives in a simple place and doesn't like to socialize. "Actually, he thinks that Yue Shao is beautiful, and he also has a charm that Haikou women don't have, but it hasn't reached the point where the sky is angry and resentful, why 'why does the young general like it so much, and even chase this woman to Haikou, and don't even care about the fact that the girl was kidnapped, he really can't understand.

After a while, An Zhichen returned.

The second old lady asked An Zhichen, "Have you found out who sent you the letter this time?" "The letter came very strangely.

An Zhichen shook his head, he had also been thinking about this question, "Uncle, the person who delivered the letter is so well-informed, and his identity is definitely not simple. Uncle, do you think it will be Zhou Xi's person? ”

The second old lady shook her head and denied without thinking about it: "Impossible." Not to mention that even the girl is just Zhou Xi's junior sister, even if it is Zhou Xi's own daughter, he will not expose his carefully placed work for the sake of one person. The second old lady has dealt with Zhou Xi a few times, and he knows Zhou Xi's behavior and style well, and he is very sure that Zhou Xi is not a person who has a long love for children.

An Zhichen thought for a long time, and finally looked at the second old lady, "This matter has alarmed the emperor, could it be someone from the court?" "Only the people of the imperial court would find out where Yue Yao was hiding in such a short period of time.

The second old lady still shook her head, "It can't be the emperor, the Hou Ye didn't say that the mastermind behind the scenes was Zhou Shu that day, and even the third girl didn't have such a big face." "The emperor wants to pay special attention to this matter, not because of how outstanding Yue Yao is, but because this matter is too bad, which will make the emperor angry. If such a thing happens at the feet of the Son of Heaven, isn't it like there is no king's law.

An Zhichen couldn't think of who would send the letter, but it was undeniable that this person must have a relationship with Yueyao.

What An Zhichen could think of, the second old lady couldn't think of. The second old lady said with a serious face: "Chen'er, what kind of person do you think the third girl of the Lian family is?" "The second old lady thinks that Yue Yao is a very simple person.

The second old lady can come to this conclusion, not only because of the matter of sending the letter, but also because Luo Shao attaches great importance to Yueyao, how can it be simple for Luo Shao to treat him like this.

An Zhichen had long since discovered that Yueyao was even better than he imagined, "Zichang is a very smart and brave person. ”

The second old lady chuckled and said, "I'm afraid it's not just that! "Not only is he smart and brave, but he is also a very thoughtful person.

An Zhichen wanted to argue for Yueyao, but the second old lady shouted outside: "Come on, call Luo Zhong over." "The second old lady of the An family thinks that Luo Zhong should guess who the person who sent the letter will be. Of course, it was definitely not from the Marquis of Jingning's mansion.

An Zhichen actually felt that Luo Zhong should guess who it was, "Can you tell me who sent the letter to my uncle now?" ”

Luo Zhong shook his head and said, "I don't know, but before I came, Master Hou said that when I arrived in Haikou, there might be someone secretly helping." ”

The second old lady looked puzzled, Luo Shao said that maybe someone would help, that is to say, Luo Shao was actually not sure whether someone would help in the end.

Luo Zhong looked at the two of them with a puzzled look on their faces, and said: "Actually, if the master and Chen Shao want to know, please ask Miss Lian directly, I believe that even the girl must know." ”

The second old lady would definitely not ask, and immediately changed the topic, "Chen'er, you have done your best to rescue her, and when you return to the capital, you will go to retreat from this family, if you can't find a satisfactory family in the capital, then look for it in Haikou." ”

An Zhichen didn't settle for marriage when he was in Haikou, not because the second old lady didn't worry about him, but because An Zhichen himself was unwilling, he just didn't like a agreeable one, and the second old lady couldn't resist him, so he also went with him, but now he wants to interfere.

An Zhichen said categorically: "Uncle, I won't quit my family, when this matter is over, I will go back to Beijing to complete the wedding with her." ”

The second old lady's face sank, and she said: "From the capital to Haikou for more than two months, she stayed in Haikou for several days, and she has long been innocent?" How can such a woman marry back as a wife? Do you want to be a laughing stock? "Originally, the second old lady saw that her nephew liked her nephew so much, and she thought that it would be no problem to let Yueyao be a concubine, but now it seems that the woman's means are so powerful, she must not be a concubine, otherwise the family will have no peace.

An Zhichen's attitude was very tough, "Uncle, I won't quit my family." ”

The second old lady was awe-inspiring, "Even if you don't care that she is no longer innocent, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, how will you face the rumors outside when this matter spreads in the future?" "You can turn a blind eye to other things, but this kind of thing is not child's play.

Seeing this, Luo Zhong interjected: "Second old lady, Chen Shao, although it is said that Miss Lian has been missing for more than two months, I am sure that Miss Lian must be innocent. ”

An Zhichen was stunned for a moment.

The second old lady had a fierce look in her eyes, "How do you know?" "How could Luo Zhong know about whether the woman is innocent or not, this is too strange.

Luo Zhong hurriedly said: "This old lady doesn't know, Lian girl is a proud person, if there is really something, she will never be as calm as she is now." "No matter how strong the psychological quality is, if you lose your innocence, you will not have such a calm look.

The second old lady didn't miss An Zhichen's look, "You don't know? ”

An Zhichen did not deny it, and said: "I thought she insisted on withdrawing her family because she lost her innocence." "Since it's good, why do you want to quit your family.

Luo Zhong explained with a smile: "I said, Miss Lian is a high-minded and arrogant person, and when something like this happens, she must feel that she lacks confidence in front of Chen Shao, so she wants to withdraw from her family, which is not what you think." ”

An Zhichen thought about Yueyao's temperament for a while, but he agreed a little.

The second old lady said stiffly: "She wants to withdraw from her family, but she will retreat." "They don't dislike it, they don't care about it, they even dare to withdraw from their relatives.

An Zhichen said: "Uncle, Yueyao is not only talented and beautiful, but also wise and brave, it is my luck to meet her, I will never withdraw from my family." "In the past, he thought that Yueyao was unwilling to withdraw from his relatives if he lost his innocence, but now he will not withdraw from his relatives.

Luo Zhong said on the side: "Old lady, Hou Ye once told me, it's a pity that Miss Lian is a woman, if a man is definitely able to pay homage to the Hou, and it is precisely because of this that Hou Ye will match Chen Shao with Miss Lian." Luo Zhong also indirectly explained why Luo Shao valued Yueyao so much.

The second old lady was very surprised, Luo Shao's vision was not ordinary vicious, and it was really not easy for this girl to be praised by him so much.

The second old lady's own daughter-in-law was also good in appearance and talent, and her temperament was also good. The second old lady was also very satisfied, but he left the capital not long after he got married, and his wife stayed in the capital, but he died depressed before forty.

His daughter-in-law has been in Haikou, but unfortunately when the news of his son's death in the war came back, his daughter-in-law followed with the child in her belly.

When his grandson married, he originally wanted his grandson to marry a strong personality to become an incident, but the grandson still liked a woman who helped Liu Ruofeng, the girl's family background and temperament are good in all aspects, but the body is too weak, and the temperament is also weak, how can such a woman support a family, but unfortunately it is useless if he does not agree, and the grandson will die with him, but he did not resist and agreed. The granddaughter-in-law married home, but because her body and bones were too bad, she had a difficult birth during childbirth, and neither mother nor child was saved.

With these pains, the second old lady's views have changed greatly. When marrying a wife, family background, appearance, talent, and everything leans back, he believes that temperament and body are the first things to consider. If you want to be a military general's daughter-in-law, you must be generous, because it is likely that you will have to stay at home for ten or eight years or even longer, and you must be able to hold up on things, even if the sky falls, you can support your family; Of course, the most important thing is to have a good body, if the body is not good, everything is in vain.

The second master thought about a lot of things in an instant, and asked Luo Zhong, "Akai said that even the girl has practiced martial arts?" Is it true? ”

Luo Zhong was more clear about this matter, nodded and said: "It's not a martial arts practice, it's just that I learned a set of boxing techniques to strengthen my body with Bai Yi eight years ago, but even the girl has a lot of perseverance, except for being sick, she hasn't broken a day." ”

The second old lady was a little unconvinced, "Really? "Eight years of practicing a set of boxing techniques day in and day out, this is not something that ordinary people can do, without perseverance and perseverance, it is absolutely impossible.

Luo Zhong nodded, "Naturally, it's true." Even the girl has no parents and only one younger brother. I heard that the child was enlightened by Lian Niang herself, and later Lian Niang saw that he couldn't study, but he had the talent to learn martial arts, and later Lian Niang made the decision to let her younger brother practice martial arts. I went to the Xiaoqi camp at the beginning of last year, and I was admitted to Wu Xiucai in the fall, and my future is also very good. "Luo Zhong said these words to tell the second old lady that Yue Yao is a rare virtuous helper. Think about it, if you can teach your younger brother well, then you will definitely be able to teach your son well.

The most regrettable thing for the second old lady of the An family is that his son and grandson are too weak, and there is no one who can inherit the mantle. Luo Zhong's words can be regarded as saying that in the heart of the second old lady, such a smart and capable woman, with a strong temperament and martial arts, and can teach her heirs, is indeed rare.

The second old lady looked at An Zhichen and asked, "Do you really have to marry her?" ”

An Zhichen said: "She was my fiancée. "What does it mean that she doesn't marry, is his daughter-in-law good.

When the second old lady heard An Zhichen say this, he thought of Luo Zhong saying that Yueyao was still innocent, and after thinking about it for a while, he didn't say anything more. This is mainly due to the relatively open atmosphere in Haikou, and the second old lady has also been affected by Haikou for so many years. As long as Yue Yao is innocent, and has so many advantages, and his nephew is willing, he really has no interest in being a villain and beating mandarin ducks.

An Zhichen thought of Yue Yao's appearance when she said that she wanted to withdraw from her family, and it would take a lot of effort to convince Yue Yao.

The second old lady scolded with a smile: "Look at your little bit of interest." As long as you insist on not withdrawing from your family, she won't be able to destroy her relatives even if she wants to. "This matter is not up to Yue Yao alone, as long as the elders of the Ma family do not agree with the Hou Mansion, Yue Yao will have to marry if she doesn't marry.

An Zhichen snorted, no matter what Yueyao thought, she would never retreat from this kiss anyway. In fact, what the second old lady didn't know was that An Zhichen's mate selection criteria were influenced by him. The second old lady had told An Zhichen before that what kind of daughter-in-law she was looking for was the most suitable for their generals. It's rare to find a favorite right that meets all the requirements, how can he give up halfway.

The second old lady didn't say anything more. He knew that An Zhichen had set Lian Yueyao, the first talented woman in the capital, although he muttered a little in his heart, but because he believed in An Zhichen's vision, he did not object. Now it seems that the vision of the nephew is much stronger than that of his own children and grandchildren.
