262 Pros and cons

After Xue Rou entered the house, she looked around and felt deeply satisfied, especially when she went around to the back compartment and saw the towering courtyard wall, the corners of her mouth were lightly raised. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"This house on Friday is not bad."

"It's good, he has always had a vicious eye, he sees farther than anyone else, when he bought this house, he was afraid that he was optimistic about the location here, so it will be vacant for several years, and he never thought of selling here, and now the girl is here, but it is just the right use, and we will find another place."

Qin Xi looked sideways at the drawing in his hand and chuckled.

Qin Yan listened to the plausible conversation between the two, scratched the back of her head, and looked around a little inexplicably, "Where is this house, why didn't I see it?" ”

Qin Xi and Xue Rou both smiled and did not speak, but the hearts of the dark three who were ordering someone to carry the luggage not far away moved slightly.

He was originally a person from Southern Chu, he had lived in this capital for nearly 20 years before he went to the Great Zhou with Rong Jing, the location of this house was not unfamiliar to him, and it could even be said that he was extremely familiar, Fengli Lane stood behind the main street of the capital, close to Fengtian Mansion, there was no high-ranking family around, and there was no princely mansion, not only far away from the palace, but also Xichengfang City at the end of the alley, and there were many pedestrians.

Not only that, Fengli Lane seems to be ordinary, but if someone jumps up and looks down from the top of the alley, it is easy to find that passing through Fengli Alley, passing through two tortuous alleys, and going out less than a mile apart, it is the most prosperous place in Beijing, and it is also the only place in the capital that is not subject to curfew.

There are a lot of people there, singing every night, and there is no explicit rule in Southern Chu that officials are not allowed to escort prostitutes, so there is no shortage of powerful and powerful people there, and it is the darkest and most complex place in Beijing.

Dark San glanced at Xue Rou without a trace, from the conversation between her and Qin Xi, he could detect that Xue Rou must know about the connection, but remembering the warning words of the evergreen in the grove that day, he just pursed his lips and didn't ask more, urging the people in the house to pack up, and he was also busy.

Seeing this, the corners of Xue Rou's mouth lifted slightly, turned her head and commanded a few words, and then entered the inner room with Qin Xi and Qin Yan.

At night, Xue Rou sat in front of the couch, took the soft handkerchief handed over by Qin Xi and gently wiped her cheeks, and the cool wetness took away the heat of the day.

"The weather is getting hotter and hotter these days, wait until tomorrow to let people add some ice basins in, otherwise the people in this hot air will panic." Qin Xi took the soft handkerchief and threw it into the basin, and then served the sour plum soup that had been iced in the well to Xue Rou and said.

"The mind is calm and naturally cool." Xue Rou smiled, held the sour plum soup and asked, "Do you have anything to gain when you go to Hanxiang Pavilion today?" ”

Qin Xi nodded, "Then Luo Qiusheng should have been ordered by the prince earlier, and as soon as he saw the token, he gave it to me." ”

As she spoke, she took out a few secret letters from her arms and handed them to Xue Rou, and then continued: "Listen to Luo Qiusheng's meaning, since King Ling was canonized, the Xiao family, the Xie family, the Yang family and the Yuguo Mansion are all interested in marrying the Ling Wangfu, among which Yang Yuzhen, the daughter of the Yang family, is quite popular with the Chu Emperor, but she has already been rejected by King Ling, and the Feng sisters of the Yuguo Mansion have already admired people, and they are not willing to marry, so it is easy to send them away, but Xiao Mei, the second daughter of the Xiao family, and Xie Yiliu, the sister of Ning Guifei, are a little tricky, and these two people are not shallow, With Empress Dowager Xiao and Concubine Ning behind him, I am afraid that it is not so easy to back down, especially Xie Yiliu, that person is not very simple. ”

Xue Rou looked at the things in her hand, and her eyes quickly stayed on the details of the Xie family, which used a whole pen and ink to describe the changes of the Xie family in recent years, including Ning Guifei in just three years, from a talented person to the position of the concubine, the head of the Xie family also sat in the position of the head of the household, among which Xie Yiliu is the most important, after Xue Rou read it carefully, his fingers paused at the end of the letter, "Xie Yiliu, Buddha face snake heart, end for the top talent of the treacherous way".

"Before I left Hanxiang Pavilion, Luo Qiusheng repeatedly told me that if the girl wants to move the Xie family, you must be careful Xie Yiliu, that woman seems simple, but in fact she is ruthless and cunning, Ning Guifei has been able to live forever in recent years, and the Xie family can compete with the Xiao family, and Xie Yiliu's shadow can be seen everywhere, the Xie family has three sons-in-law and concubines, but their status in the house is not as good as Xie Yiliu from the concubine, outsiders think that it is because she is Ning Guifei's sister-in-law, but in fact, it is not, Even King Xuan, who has always been arrogant, treated her with courtesy. ”

"Is it so powerful......

Xue Rou squinted slightly, thoughtfully, since Xie Yiliu is so powerful, Ning Guifei secretly supports King Xuan, she must know about the Xie family and King Xuan, since this is the case, why should she be willing to go far?

It is very dangerous to participate in the matter of seizing the heir, and what is sought is nothing more than fame and fortune, with the momentum of the Xie family, what can compare to supporting King Xuan after ascending the throne, the Xie family has another queen since the concubine, and the Xie family has been strong for decades of glory?

If Xie Yiliu really has the means as stated in the letter, why should she wronged herself to marry Rong Jing?

Xue Rou touched her finger bones, she was a little confused about Xie Yiliu's thoughts, but there was one thing she didn't want to know......

Xie Yiliu is so good, the other sons and ladies of the Xie family, don't they have a little bit of a problem about this?

Presumably, if you want to deal with the Xie family, you still have to put some effort into that sister-in-law, Xie Yijiang.

Xue Rou chuckled lightly, and directly threw the letter about the Xie family in her hand on the table, and turned to look at the details of the other families, and Qin Xi also told Xue Rou one by one the news she brought back from Hanxiang Pavilion today.

The midsummer evening breeze was slightly cool, the candle flame on the table was constantly shaking, and the two people in the room were whispering, as if chatting about the affairs of the court, nearly an hour later, Qin Xi withdrew from the room, and Xue Rou was leaning on the chaise longue in his clothes, casually flipping through the letters in his hand, but his heart was constantly thinking about the information he had obtained in the past two days.

On the surface, Nan Chu seems to be much more chaotic than she imagined, but if you analyze it carefully, you can detect it, but in this chaos, there is an unshakable stability.

Xiao and Xie stood in the court, including most of the courtiers in the court, and the two families fought in the court, dividing the power of the six departments in the court, and the military power was in the hands of the Yuguo Mansion, the Huawang Mansion and the Yanhou Mansion.

Now among the princes, King Qing and King Xuan have their own support, although King Fu and King Yu have been deprecated recently, but there are still old departments, only Rong Jing, his mother has passed away for many years, and his mother's family is not in the court, although there is the favor of the Emperor Chu, but he can not enter the court to discuss politics, in addition to leaving Southern Chu for nearly four years, he has already been excluded from the prince by everyone in the court, although this can lower the guardliness of others, but it also limits the road to Rong Jing's succession, if you want to succeed, the first thing to do is to break the current secret containment situation.

In the chaos, there is a chance to win!

Xue Rou subconsciously rubbed her fingers, and the night breeze swept through her hair, bringing a hint of restraint.

She suddenly looked up at the window and said in a low voice, "Since you're here, why don't you come in?" (To be continued.) )
