The capital is full of people, and everything is orderly.

The carriage passed through the wide streets, leaving no trace, passing through the crowds, through the noise, and quietly stopping in a quiet place.

The men in the carriage quickly descended and entered the inner house, surrounded by numerous guards. When the people in the courtyard saw the visitors, they stopped their work and bent down to salute.

Wen Nan raised his hand to them, and the people left quietly.

"Ling Yu, is there any latest news?" Back in the room, Wen Nan took off the big hat on his body and said to Ling Yun with his clean hands.

Ling Yun hesitated and said, "Recently, the situation in the capital has been relatively stable, and there is nothing special to guard against. ”

Hearing this, Wen Nan looked at Ling Yun, his eyes were dim, until he saw Ling Yun avoiding his sight, he turned around, took a sweat towel to wipe his hands, and asked inadvertently, "What happened over there in Yancheng?" ”

Ling Yun just wanted to say no, but was swept away by the master's sharp gaze, and he was so frightened that he could only tell the truth, "There is news that it is ...... It is said that the Zhang family and the You family have already made a marriage! ”

After Ling Yun finished speaking in one breath, he saw the movements in Wen Nan's hand pause for a moment, then threw the wet sweat towel on the shelf, and asked, "How did You Cheng do with his appointment?" Let him enter Beijing within a month. ”

"Yes...... That ......" Ling Yun hesitated for a moment, only to hear Wen Nan continue: "Young Master Zhang has performed well in Yancheng Academy, hasn't he been transferred to Qingshan Academy?" ”

Ling Yun recalled for a moment, caught a glimpse of his master's eyes, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and said, "Yes, my subordinates will go and urge them to enter Beijing." ”

When You Cheng, who was far away in Yancheng, received the news from his master, he just smiled, did not hesitate, and immediately went to inform Zhang Jingtu to go to the capital to take up his post together.

"Castle Peak Academy?" Looking at the letter of appointment in his hand, Zhang Jingtu looked puzzled, but he was excited in his heart, his teacher was the master of Qingshan Academy. Qingshan Academy is the first academy in the capital, and often only senior officials can occupy a place in it, and the students in it are not ordinary people, this surprise is no less than pie in the sky.

"But you must go to Beijing at once to take over the wounded master's work, and if you do well, you can stay." You Cheng put on a serious appearance, just to let him enter Beijing as soon as possible.

"Okay, I'll go tell my father."

"Well, then I'll take my leave first, and I'll see you at the city gate in three days."

The two of them said goodbye and left, only one was cunning and the other was excited.

The three-day deadline came quickly, and when You Cheng finished saying goodbye to his family and came to the city gate, the Zhang family's carriage was already waiting for it early.

"You Cheng, here." Zhang Jingtu saw You Cheng from a distance and called out to him.

"Brother Zhang is ready?"

"Well, let's go!"

You Cheng's eyes flashed, in the past three days, he has been paying attention to You Wu's movements, and he has not found that Zhang Jingtu has contacted her, is it possible that the news that has come out of Yancheng recently is all fiction?

In any case, the carriage has gradually moved, facing the rising sun, and the two embarked on the road to Beijing together, both looking forward to it.

In the inner house of the Zhang family, the eldest lady had just sent her son away and was about to go back to the room, when she saw a maid hurriedly walking forward, she was suspicious, so she stopped her.

"Ah...... Big lady! When the maid heard the call, she was frightened, and hurriedly put the things she had bought in her arms.

"What are you holding?"

"Ma'am, no...... No. The maid's face was flushed with fright, and she knew that she was telling a lie at a glance, and the eldest lady did not ask any more, but directly ordered: "Mama, go and bring the things in her arms." ”

"Okay!" Mama snatched the thing out of the maid's arms and almost broke it, it was a letter, and there was not a word on the cover.

The eldest lady took it apart and read it word by word, and when she finished reading the last name, her face suddenly became gloomy, she stared at the maid lying on the ground, and scolded in a low voice: "Is this really given to you by the young master?" ”

"No, no, no, madam, this letter was handed over to the old lady by the young master to the slave maid, and the young master also specially told you not to tell you." The maid seemed to be very afraid of implicating herself, so she hurriedly told the whole story.

"Old lady?" The eldest lady Yu thought for a moment, and then knew the whereabouts of this letter, and suddenly, the corner of her mouth hooked up a sarcastic smile, and said, "You come with me." ”

"Yes."

The maid cowered in the room, not knowing what the lady was going to do with her. After waiting for a while, when she saw the eldest lady coming, she hurriedly bowed down and knelt down.

"You still give this letter to the old lady, but it's just ......," he said, Yu's tone changed, "Nothing happened on this delivery road, you know?" ”

"Yes, yes." The maid nodded hurriedly and took the new letter.

"Then don't go yet!" Mama lifted the maid's collar and took her out.

Half an hour later, Mama returned to the house, closed the doors and windows, and said, "Madam, the matter has been done." The slave saw the old lady hand over the letter to a small servant, and saw that the direction in which the little maid left was the You family. ”

"Does the old lady have any suspicions?"

"No, no, madam, just relax!"

Hearing this, Zhang was satisfied, sat down quietly, closed his eyes and rested.

A few days later, on the old lady's side, she was personally pruning the plum blossoms in the courtyard, when suddenly a shout came from the door: "Old lady, it's not good." ”

Her heart jumped, and her hand shook accidentally, and her finger was made a bloody cut by the scissors, and even her right eyelid jumped up.

"Oh, old lady, you are injured, come into the house and bandage it, and the slave maid will bandage you." Seeing the old lady's fingers, Mama Li hurriedly went over to help, and then turned to the yelling maid and said, "You stinky girl, what are you screaming, the old lady is fine!" ”

"No, no, old lady, something happened to Miss You San." The little maid said breathlessly.

"Stinky ......" Mama Li wanted to scold again, but was stopped by the old lady.

"You say, what's wrong with You Sanya?" The old lady did not rush into the house to bandage, waiting for the maid to make a statement.

"The slave maid went out today, and she happened to meet the maid who was following Miss You San, and the slave maid felt that something was wrong with her."

"What's wrong?"

"It seems...... Extremely haggard, the slave maid followed to take a look, and saw that she went to the largest pharmacy in our Yancheng, and heard her say what she wanted for thousand-year-old ginseng. That's a thousand-year-old ginseng, and it's definitely not something that a maid can afford to use, unless it's a ......" The little maid said and her voice gradually lowered, not daring to speculate anymore.

"Old lady" Mama Li saw that the old lady's face was ugly, and hurriedly helped her to go to the house.

Unexpectedly, the old lady grabbed her and ordered: "Send someone to You Mansion to investigate, and see what is going on." ”

"Hey, okay, the slave will help you into the house first."

"I'm fine, you go now." The old lady broke free of her hand, turned and walked towards the house.

Mama Li had no choice, so she had to ask the little maid to come forward to serve, and she sent someone to You Mansion to investigate. (To be continued.) )
