Jing Ci, who got the answer, walked slowly back to the courtyard, walking very slowly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
She has been worried for so long, for fear that the affairs of the Wang family will affect the Xiao family, Aunt Xiao saved her life, she is worried about the revenge of the gangsters, and she is even more worried that the recent chaotic court affairs will involve the Xiao family, in case Xiao Ping and Xiao An suffer the same thing as her......
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ping and Xiao An moved their families to Chang'an. Uncle Xiao was promoted to the prefect of the Imperial History Observatory, and the official residence was of the third grade.
This surprised her, and it seemed that she was really worried. Uncle Xiao is such a smart and motivated person, he will naturally protect his wife and children.
Back in the courtyard, Fang Nian was waiting in the house, busy serving hot tea and sending the stove to the master. Jing Ci was not afraid of the cold, and told Fang Nian not to be busy and go back to rest.
After dinner, Fang Nian and Qingnu had just removed the food and taken away the basin, and a secret weapon flew in neatly and stuck on the wall.
Jing Ci was stunned for a moment.
It's finally here.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
Since it was unlikely that Yang Mansion would kill Daddy, and she had not found anything suspicious for such a long time, it was Yang Mansion's opponent who she listed as the object of suspicion, so she set her sights on the entire imperial court.
Yang Fu and Princess Taiping have formed a party, looking at the court, the forces that can compete with it are King Xiang and Wu Sansi. The more silent King Xiang became, the more suspicious she became, she asked Aunt Pei to investigate King Xiang first, and found that although King Xiang had big hands behind him, he had little to do with the Yang family and the Wang family. Therefore, she focused on Wu Sansi again.
"Wu Sansi promoted Zong Chuke, Ran Zuyong, and Xiao Zhizhong, all of whom held important positions in the court. Zong Chuke, the secretary of the military department. Ran Zuyong, the waiter of the Criminal Department. Xiao Zhizhong, Yushitai Yushi Zhongcheng. ā
Scold! Within a few months, people were placed in the military department, the criminal department, and the imperial history platform, and so on...... Xiao Zhizhong? It's Uncle Xiao next door in Luoyang. Does Uncle Xiao have anything to do with Wu Sansi...... How so......
Uncle Xiao is an upright person, how impartial he enforced the law when he was in Luoyang in the past. Uncle Xiao will never form a party with Wu Sansi for personal gain.
Long.
The young girl came in with a letter.
"The concierge said that the lady of the Xiao Yushi family sent someone to send it to you, the fourth lady."
It's Xiao An! Jing Ci hurriedly took the letter and quickly opened it.
In the letter, Xiao An said many things, but the main purpose was to invite Jing Ci to go to Xiao Mansion for a small gathering tomorrow.
"Xiao An asked me to go to Xiao Mansion tomorrow."
"Then Siniang to go or not to go?" Fang Nian asked tentatively, today the little lady Xiao annoyed the master, and the master broke up with her.
"Of course I went!"
Of course, she had to go to see Xiao Ping, Xiao An and Aunt Xiao.
"Slave and maid, go and command." The young girl was blessed and exited the house.
At night, the snow is still falling.
Jing Ci lay on the couch, tossing and turning, and fell asleep. There was a faint light outside the window, and it was the snow on the trees in the yard. She got up and opened the window slightly, and the snow was drifting, and the yard was covered with a thin layer of snow, and if it had rained all night, she would have been able to build a snowman tomorrow morning.
It's been a long time since I've built a snowman.
I remember that year, it snowed very heavily in Luoyang...... She read aloud with Xiao Ping and Xiao An in the warm room, and saw the old master dozing with his chin on the desk, and she and Xiao Ping threw the book together, and dragged Xiao An, who was studying seriously, out of the house. The servants rolled in the soft and thick snow, tossed all kinds of things, built a row of snowmen, named the snowmen, and had a lot of fun.
During the snowball fight, Xiao Ping pressed the snowball too thickly, and Jing Ci's eyes were swollen, and it hurt and hurt. Xiao An, who has always been gentle, scolded his brother loudly for the first time, blaming Xiao Ping for not being serious, so he took Jing Ci's little hand and turned around and left, but Jing Ci didn't see the road clearly because of his swollen eyes, and he fell down with a pop.
Xiao Ping helped her up and squatted in front of her, "Come up, I'll carry you away." ā
"We'll send you home." Xiao An said softly.
"No, go find A-Niang," Xiao Ping corrected, "No one takes care of her when she is sent home, Jing Ci doesn't even have a maid, and now only A-Niang can take care of her." "Ah Niang said, Jing Ci does not have Ah Niang, they have to take good care of her.
Jing Ci waved his hand and said meaninglessly: "It's okay, I can go." "It's a little injury that doesn't matter to her.
When Xiao's mother learned of this, she mercilessly slapped Xiao Ping's small palm and punished him for standing outside the door for an hour. Xiao's father was distressed and complained that Xiao's mother treated their only son like this. Xiao's mother looked reasonable, "Children have to be taught from an early age, men dare to act, and they should be punished if they do wrong, besides, this is still against our future daughter-in-law...... Can I not be angry......"
"The child is still so young, what do you do ...... say this"
Xiao's mother loves Jing Ci and always jokes about Jing Ci, is it good to be Aunt Xiao's daughter-in-law in the future......
Since Jing Ci was injured, Xiao Ping and Xiao An sent hard-boiled eggs to Wang's house every day to rub her eyes, and the wind and snow were unhindered. Even though Jing Ci said that Daddy had helped her knead it, Xiao Ping and Xiao An still insisted on sending it every day, and the more times they kneaded, the better it would be.
That year, Xiao Ping was ten years old, Xiao An was nine years old, and Jing Ci was eight years old.
When I woke up, the snow had stopped, and it was much colder.
"It's not snowing?"
"It stopped last night." Fang Nian Road.
"Let's hurry up and get ready, and go to Xiao Mansion early."
"Yes."
The snow came quickly, it went fast, the sun shone in the thin snow, and the air was quite cold. As soon as he opened his mouth, white gas was exhaled, and the cases he touched were like ice.
When she went out, the young girl did not forget to bring a spare cloak for her master. It's freezing cold, just in case.
Even though the separation was not very pleasant yesterday, thinking about seeing Xiao Ping and Xiao An today, Jing Ci is still looking forward to it. After all, they grew up together, not to mention the others, I haven't seen you for so long, so I naturally miss it.
Within half an hour, the carriage stopped, and it seemed that Xiao Fu had arrived.
When he got out of the car and saw a woman wrapped in a cloak standing at the door, Jing Ci was quite surprised, and couldn't help trotting forward, "Xiao An, why did you come out?" ā
"The little lady is waiting here together, for fear that the little lady Yang will not come." The maid next to her interjected with a smile.
"Yang?" Xiao An's smile faded, "Yes, your surname is Yang ...... now"
Jing Ci was also a little uncomfortable when he heard this, and then thought about it, what about him, cherish the moment, "I have encountered a lot of things in the past few months, and I have a lot of things to say to you." ā
"Me too. Let's go in and talk slowly. Xiao An took Jing Ci's hand and walked happily to the mansion.
Xiao An took Jing Ci straight to her boudoir, Jing Ci looked at the furnishings in Xiao An's house, and a sense of familiarity came to her face, thinking that Xiao An's taste had not changed, exactly the same as when she was in Luoyang.
Two petite and lovely bodies sat side by side, very intimate.
The refreshments brought by the maid were their own tastes.
"You're really, you didn't tell me when you came to Chang'an."
"I thought you were in Tanzhou, and I wrote a lot of letters to Tanzhou, but there was no response." Xiao An said.
"I also sent a lot of letters to Luoyang, but they were all lost in the sea."
"It's stupid, it turns out that we are all in Chang'an."
The two talked to each other about their recent experiences and experiences, Jing Ci and Xiao An talked about the general manager of the Yang Mansion, the eccentric grandmother, the eldest sister in charge, the stubborn nephew, and the second sister and the third sister, as well as the embarrassing birthday banquet of Princess Taiping.
Xiao An was surprised, "Daddy also went to Princess Taiping's birthday banquet, it stands to reason that he saw you, but why didn't he tell me?" ā
"Really?"
"I'll ask Daddy later. So, you and Yun'er were the knots at that time? Xiao An wanted to figure this matter out after all.
"Hmm," Jing Ci nodded, "You seem to be very familiar with the county lord of Fangcheng." ā
"It's a long story, I met her in the queen's palace, and she helped her when she was in danger, I saw that she had a good heart, and she was quite in love, and I didn't think that I would get acquainted with it in a few months."
"I see."
"Jing Ci, tell me the truth, do you like Xue Erlang?" Xiao An looked at her seriously, with a serious expression.
Jing Zi smiled suddenly, and gently nudged her rather complainingly, "What are you talking about?" ā
"You say."
Jing Ci lowered his eyes, and for a moment, Fang looked sideways at his friend, "If I like Xue Lang, will you help me or help the county lord of Fangcheng?" ā
