Liu Kuo frowned: "Now it seems that this is probably the case." ”

An Ninghou recalled the people and things he met in the Han family from beginning to end, only Shen Mi had the most contact with him, and according to the fact that he actually handed over the Tianhuang stone to Shen Guanyu afterwards, he went to the Han family to lure him into the bait. But since his purpose was to lead him to Shen Guanyu, then there was no reason for him to set up such a situation to harm him.

Moreover, as a court official with status, it is impossible for him to do such a tasteless thing!

So who could it be?

He pondered for a long time, and then asked Liu Kuo: "Then what target have you found?" ”

Liu Kuo was silent for a while, and said: "Recently, Dong Slow, the little prince of the Xuguo Mansion, Xue Ting, the little prince of the Fuguo Mansion, and Gu Song, the little prince of the Rongguo Mansion, often play together.

"According to the investigation, Xue Dong and the two of them urinated against each other, and they would quarrel after less than a moment together, but Gu Song of the Rongguo Mansion had a dull temperament, and he rarely went out of the mansion on weekdays, and the three of them were either running horses in the moat in the past two months, or going to the grange together to cool off, which was very eye-catching."

An Ninghou pondered silently, and was suddenly shocked: "You mean, the three of them were the people who harmed me?!" ”

Liu Kuo lowered his head: "Now there is no evidence, and it is not certain that it is not them." ”

"Definitely! Who else would they be?! An Ninghou roared, he slapped the table, and then strode in front of him, his face was already crooked: "Their barbarians have never looked down on us, especially the Rongguo Mansion, that Gu Zhicheng is even more arrogant, the previous time because of Wu Chong's incident, he still treated me coldly, this time it was definitely Gu Zhicheng's idea!"

"I'm going to the Gu family to settle accounts with them, and I'm going to drag him to see the emperor!"

He was so angry that he scolded, waving his hands, and his fat body trembled a little.

Liu Kuo hurriedly said: "Master Hou is angry!" Although this Gu family is the most suspicious, but after all, there is no evidence, if we rush to the door so rashly, there is a chance that they will still push it clean. Moreover, the unfavorable rumors against Hou Ye outside finally settled down, and Hou Ye had no need to stir up trouble again! ”

"So what do you say? Did Lao Tzu be cheated by them?! An Ninghou yelled at him, and his eyes were a little out of his sockets.

"Master Hou, don't worry, this matter should be considered in the long run." Liu Kuo comforted, and while serving him tea from the case, he said: "Hou Ye's reputation has been ruined by them, and the emperor has also received the punishment, and the mother has not asked for anything good in front of him, but now it is a matter of fact, and it is useless to save Hou Ye's reputation."

"In my opinion, we don't have evidence anyway, and we won't admit it if we go to them openly, since Liangzi has already been settled, if you want to take such a breath, it is better to act in secret, let them also suffer a dumb loss, and then taste the bitterness that cannot be said."

Liu Kuo has always been the think tank of An Ninghou, except for the two staff members in the mansion, he is the most useful. Hearing his analysis, he calmed down a little, thought about it again, and then endured his anger and said, "Then you say, how do you act in secret?" ”

As he was talking, someone suddenly came in outside the door and said, "Master Hou, Niangniang sent you into the palace to speak." ”

An Ninghou was a little impatient when he heard that he was suddenly disturbed, but because it was the queen who announced it, he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly got up and said to Liu Kuo: "You go back and think about it, Ming'er will come and go back to me." Then he went out.

On the side of the Wei Mansion, due to the hot weather, the E family has not been out of the mansion for several days.

At noon, I took advantage of the heavy rain to take a nap, and when I woke up, I heard the maids whispering under the porch, and I couldn't help beckoning them to come in and say, "What are you all talking about?" ”

The maid named Qiu Ju combed her hair while saying: "What about the news of the slaves and maids on the street, it is said that many merchants who have gone north have recently returned, and they have brought back some news from the northwest, saying that the Mongols have started to fight, and we are praying that we will not disturb the border of the Great Zhou, and our grandfather will come back early." ”

E Shi looked at the bronze mirror with a smile and said, "I only received a letter from Grandpa Guo last month, and I haven't heard anything about it. Where did all of a sudden all this news come from? ”

Qiu Ju said: "Although the letter was received by Mrs. last month, but the northwest to Beijing has to bear the burden of ten days, the battlefield is not easy to say, and there are many discussions outside the general now." Yes, Uncle Fang Cai also took the second master to Lu'an Hutong to buy antiques, is that the case, Mrs. turned around and asked the uncle. ”

Eshi thought about it and didn't say anything.

After drinking a bowl of ginseng soup and eating a snack, I heard a crisp childish sound faintly outside.

A slight smile appeared on the corner of E's lips, and when he walked to the threshold, he saw Han Yun, who was like a lump of flesh at the Moon Cave Gate, twisting his small body and rushing towards this side, while Han Ji followed him, tall and tall, and full of spirit.

Her gaze fell on his face, which was completely different from Han Yun's, and her smiling eyebrows were suddenly stained with autumn frost, as if a sudden rainstorm in the June day had quietly turned the night cold. It wasn't until Han Yun arrived like a whirlwind that the cold gradually faded again, turning into the same warmth as before.

"Mother, my eldest brother bought me this!" Han Yun raised a delicate slingshot in his hand and showed it to her, his round face full of pride of being pampered. "Big brother also took me to eat foie gras and rouge from Lianxiang Building!"

"Really? Haven't your horse steps been in vain these days? E's squinted at his son, as if he was smiling.

Han Yun obviously didn't expect this, and immediately turned his head dumbly and looked at Han Ji who had already walked over.

Han Ji took a long brocade bag sewn from Xin Yi behind him, and handed it to E's Dao: "Passing by Lu'an Hutong, I went shopping, took a fancy to this bone fan, and specially honored my mother." As he spoke, he pulled out the fan, shook it open and handed it to her, but it was a folding fan with extremely fine carvings.

Eshi took it and played with it for a while, handed it to Qiu Ju, and walked into the house while holding Han Ji's hand, and said, "With such a big sun, I don't know what you are doing when you run out?" One is so bad that the body is not good when he is young, and the other is so fat that he can sweat when he sits still. ”

Han Ji said with a smile: "It's okay to be a little bit of the sun, I brought Yourendan." He patted his purse.

While eating tea, E's glared at him lightly, and then he let it go.

After putting the tea bowl down, she said with a straight face: "I just heard from the girls that there are rumors in the northwest outside, what's going on?" Why haven't you heard from the military department or your father? ”

Han Ji casually poked the flesh on Han Yun's shoulder socket and said, "It's all nonsense outside, mother doesn't have to care." ”

"Nonsense?" E's was not angry, "It's all spread to me, or is it a blind story?" Tell me the truth, does your father have a letter to you? ”

Han Yun was poked and itchy, stopped eating the hemp candy on the plate, and shrunk the base of his neck.

Han Ji supported his forehead with one hand, and poked his neck socket with the other, and after a short pause, he said casually: "I came to the letter a few days ago, but it was all about the Chinese military camp, and I didn't mention it at home, so I didn't present it to my mother." After that, he went to poke the meat ring on Han Yun's fat waist, which was very funny.

"Don't poke me!"

Han Yun was so itchy that he finally got impatient, and shouted, "If you want to poke you, you will grow flesh yourself!" ”

E's snatched the noisy him to his side, and frowned at Han Ji: "It's really that the older you are, the more ignorant you are, even if you are talking about official business, but there is an old lady in this back house, your father has a letter, so you can tell us anyway, so as to save the old man from worrying." When you turn around, you quickly go to the backyard to say hello and tell her that you are safe. ”

After speaking, he let go of Han Yun, knocked on Han Ji's head with the handle of the fan, and said, "Let your father know this, it's no wonder if you don't get punished!" ”

Han Ji has always been lazy and careless from the moment he entered the door, but when he heard this, his half-hanging eyes suddenly dimmed slightly. He sat up straight, raised his eyes to look at E's, his eyes fell on the solemnity of her face, and his tone was unconsciously obedient: "It's my son's fault, I won't dare next time." ”

Eshi looked at him and said lightly: "Go quickly, Brother Yun will also show your slingshot to the old lady." ”

Han Yun was unhappy: "Big brother, he always pokes my flesh!" ”

Eshi was speechless: "Don't you just steal candy?" ”

The brothers finally went out on their front and back feet.

It wasn't until he saw them out of the courtyard that the E family slowly withdrew his gaze and raised his eyes to look at Qiu Ju: "What about Mama Ning?" ”

Mama Ning is a woman in her early fifties, with a slightly thin figure, slightly deep nasolabial folds, and slightly upturned corners of her mouth, but because of her age, the lines are still a little obvious. But she was plainly dressed, with only two jade bracelets on her wrists and a few silver hairpins in her bun, and her movements were very gentle, and her eyes were gentle, which made her feel very comfortable.

Soon after E's questioning, she came to the main room, went in the door to greet E, and sat down on the pestle at her feet at E's suggestion.

E's maiden family is not in Beijing, she is the founder of the country before marrying the Duke of Wei, Wei Guogong was already twenty-three years old when he got married, when he was young, with the old Duke of Wei fighting in the south and the north, there was no time to take care of the marriage, and later the army hit Luoyang, King Chen and Zhou Gaozu stayed in Luoyang for more than half a year, and the old Duke of Wei was engaged to his son and the young lady of the local family.

When the Great Zhou Dynasty was established, the old Wei Guogong was already a little overwhelmed due to war injuries, and before he died, he made the decision to let them get married. Mama Ning is the nurse of the E's family, and she also escaped from Jingshi when she was a child, so she accompanied the E's family to the Han family at the request of E's father.

E's waved the maid away, looked at Mama Ning and said, "You go to check what the uncle is doing these days?" ”

Mama Ning raised her head: "What's wrong?" ”

E Shi was silent, raised his eyes and said, "Nothing happened, but I feel that he has something to hide from me."
