Early the next morning, there was news in the Jin State Mansion that the cousin girl in the Yilan Pavilion who had not been out for a long time wanted to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river late at night, but was rescued by the guards who patrolled the night.

Although no one dares to discuss it in the open, it has been rumored to be in various versions underneath.

The young lady of the Shi clan was rescued by the guards after throwing herself into the river, which is not a trivial matter!

As a result, everyone's attention is now focused on two points.

One, why did the cousin throw herself into the river?

Second, who was the guard who saved my cousin?

"How could the news get out of ......! and was falsely rumored to have committed suicide as a girl! What's going on here? Xie Jiarou suffered from the cold, and after taking the medicine, she took a break inside, and the thrush pulled Bailing outside the house and asked in a low voice.

Bai Ling was completely panicked, looking like a master of the six gods, and explained anxiously: "I don't know either...... The situation was critical, and I had no choice but to go out to find someone to save me, and I happened to meet the night watchman, and I could not care much less than to ask them for help, but after rescuing the girl, I saw with my own eyes that the leading commander had told his men that the matter would not be leaked...... Who knows, who knows that this will happen! ”

The thrush wrinkled his brows and asked, "You said last night that it was the Song commander next to the second prince who saved people?" ”

Bai Ling nodded busily.

The thrush twisted his eyebrows, and couldn't help but think of the previous two things.

The girl's previously lost personal jade pendant reappeared on her body after a chance encounter with that Song Commander.

There is also the early opening jasmine on the upper floor of the book opposite, which seems to have something to do with it.

Although these were all denied by the girl. But she was always a little uneasy in her heart.

But that's not what matters right now.

"You go to the second lady and ask her to help suppress this matter...... Just go. ”

Bai Ling hesitated: "Second lady...... Would you be willing to help the girl?"

"It's about the girl's reputation, the second lady has always known the severity, and she will never hesitate on this!"

When Bai Ling heard this, he had to go in a hurry.

The thrush turned around and went back to the room, but saw that Xie Jiarou had already gotten up and was standing in front of the window wearing a green hair.

"Girl, don't worry...... There is a second lady in this matter, and the plan cannot be passed on to the outside. Thrush lowered her voice and said in relief.

"Let it be." Xie Jiarou looked out the window at the autumn colors and said expressionlessly.

If it doesn't get out, what's the matter?

Is there any chance that she will marry into a so-called good family?

"Girl......" Thrush frowned. stepped forward and said, "This matter is really strange. The Song Commander, who originally saved people, promised in front of Bailing that he would never leak the news, but in the blink of an eye, everyone knew about it...... It must have been deliberately spread by some of them -- if this matter is not clarified, I am afraid that there will be trouble in the future. ”

"Paper can't hold the fire, and you can't hide it sooner or later. It is the truth. It will be known. ”

"Look at the slave. Eighty percent is the masterpiece of that Song commander! Thrush said indignantly: "This person deliberately approached the girl three times and twice. I'm afraid that I have already deliberately plotted against him...... seized such an opportunity this time, how could you let the girl go easily? ”

"Shut up." Xie Jiarou turned her head and looked at her coldly.

Thrush was shocked. was about to say again, but heard Xie Jiarou say: "You have no evidence, how can you have such a guess?" I fell into the water last night, but he was begged by Bailing to save my life, why did he come to you and become a bad plot? If you think so, what difference does it make between the same and the vengeance? ”

“…… That's not what the slave meant. Thrush lowered her head and explained, "But it really doesn't make sense......

"You can't blame someone out of thin air."

"The slave is just guessing......" the thrush lowered her head.

"That's the end of it."

"Yes......"

Xie Jiarou glanced at her, turned back, and said, "You go down." ”

"Yes." The thrush retreated to the edge of the curtain before turning and exiting.

And Xie Jiarou, who was standing by the window, took out a purse from her sleeve.

The purse is a blue-green fine silk base with yellow spring flowers embroidered with fine threads.

This was embroidered when she had just received Xie's vague intention at the beginning of last year and let her get close to Jinqi.

Thinking about her who was willing to be at the mercy of others at that time, it was really stupid and ridiculous.

And the bamboo leaves contained in this purse are also a lot of stay in it, but it has already become a dry yellow color, and you can hear the sound of "sass" when you gently rub the surface of the purse with your fingers.

She could never have imagined that this purse would be so well preserved.

I didn't expect it to appear on that person.

When she drowned last night, she was saved by him, and the desire to survive grabbed the placket of his chest without hesitation, and grabbed the purse without defense.

He wore it close to his body all the time.

Thinking of being in the cold lake last night, the eyes that stared at her tightly in the night, and the tone that told her not to be afraid, as well as the look of Hao Ran on her face that flashed when she saw her purse held in the palm of her hand, which was extremely inconsistent with her usual image, Xie Jiarou unconsciously frowned tightly.

She suddenly wondered why she was so sure that he would never do anything bad to her when she was suspicious of him.

How could she have been less defensive and suspicious than a thrush?

……

When the news reached Jin Qingyun's ears, it was only exchanged for a sneer.

He has never paid attention to this kind of backhouse matter, and has his own Xie family to deal with it.

But when it came to his ears, he couldn't help but feel upset, and he only felt that the Xie family had been doing things unfavorably recently, and even these things could come out and make people laugh at them.

There have been too many things that have not gone well in the past two days.

First, there was a problem with the eyeliner planted in the palace, and then there was a riot of 100 people in the southern camp - although it was not a big deal, and it had been dealt with, but at this juncture, it was very irritating.

"The second son hasn't come over yet?"

Jin Qingyun frowned and looked out of the door, the sun had risen past three poles.

"Back to the master. Not yet......" The old servant on one side was afraid that he would be angry, and said with a smile: "The second son came back late last night, and he didn't have a good rest after returning to Beijing, so he must have delayed the time to come over to say goodbye." Why don't you let the old slave go to the second son to have a look? ”

"No need." Jin Qingyun sneered and said, "If he has the heart to delay, I'm afraid that no one will be able to invite him." ”

"What did the old man say...... The smile on the old servant's face faded, so he didn't dare to say more, just stood on the side and waited quietly.

And this silence was broken by the people who came to report the news outside the door.

"Master, it's not good!"

Someone came in and hurriedly saluted. It was too late for Jin Qingyun to ask. Then he said with a panicked face: "Master, early this morning, as soon as our restaurant in the west of the city opened, someone came to the door to make trouble. It was said that there was a problem with our food and it caused death! ”

Jin Qingyun couldn't help but say angrily: "Just because of this trivial matter, you came to panic like this? Haven't you dealt with such accidents before? ”

It even made trouble in front of him!

"No, sir. It's not that simple this time! The murder they were talking about was the one that came out at the end of last year...... It is indeed the poor pool of our restaurant. At that time, it was settled with silver according to the meaning of the prince, so it didn't make a big fuss...... But who would have thought that after more than half a year, someone would turn over the old accounts! No matter how much you persuade you, you can't persuade you to retreat. Now there are a lot of people in front of the restaurant! ”

The person who came looked bitter, and said: "It's not just this one, Qingming Street and Jing'an Pu are also in chaos, although it is not a major event such as a human life, but one by one there is real evidence, and they are all pressed down by various means before!" The villain thought that it couldn't be so coincidental, and at the same time, so many shops had problems, someone must be making trouble behind them, otherwise they wouldn't dare to make such a fuss! That's why I hurriedly came to tell the master, I want the master to give me an idea! ”

Jin Qingyun frowned, and was just about to explain that he wanted to quickly control the situation, but he heard a chaotic sound of footsteps.

Three men hurried in and saluted.

They are all big shopkeepers under the Jin family's industry, each of them is in charge of more than a dozen shops, and they will personally come to the house every month to report the situation, but now it is neither the beginning of the month nor the end of the month, what is the matter with us?

Jin Qingyun's eyelids jumped, and his intuition was not good.

Sure enough, these three shopkeepers have the same intention as the restaurant shopkeeper just now, and they all have problems with the shops under their hands!

Who can do business without a little mistake?

What's more, there are so many shops under the Jin family, and the chance of mistakes will naturally be more-

But these mistakes and omissions were all shaken out early this morning!

As the shopkeeper of the restaurant just said, it can't be such a coincidence, and if there is a problem at the same time, someone must be making trouble behind it.

But who could it be?

Who dares to be so bold and openly oppose the Jin family!

Jin Qingyun immediately made a decision, ordered the four big shopkeepers to go back to the town first, and immediately asked Jin Yuming to ask.

In recent years, he has almost handed over all these things to Jin Yuming, and now that there is such a mess, I want to ask him what is going on, and find out if he has offended any people in the business field recently.

But before the subordinates he sent could get out of the door of the upper room, they bumped into Jin Yuming who was in a hurry.

"Lord Shizi!" The servant hurriedly saluted.

Jin Yuming didn't have time to look at him, and came to the main hall like a wind under his feet.

"Father-" Jin Yuming was about to salute, but was stopped by Jin Qingyun, who was pacing in the hall, and frowned and asked, "Have you heard about the shops everywhere?" ”

"I just found out!" Jin Yu Ming came in a hurry, and his wrinkled clothes didn't have time to be smoothed out, and he said with a rather anxious face: "But my son just received the news...... The Han family occupies Fengcheng! Now it's going to Jingzhou! ”

"What?!" Jin Qingyun's face froze, and he asked in a deep voice, "When did it happen?" ”

The Han family actually attacked to the north...... What a guts!

Isn't this a blatant provocation?

Since ancient times, the Han family and the Jin family occupy a south and a north, no matter what is in the dark, but on the bright side it has always been the well water does not violate the river water, even though the Han family has always advocated fighting under the banner of pacifying the war since Han Chengji took over, but has never dared to invade the south, but now there is suddenly no warning, and Fengcheng is occupied!

"Three, three days ago......"

"Three days!" Jin Qingyun looked at Jin Yuming in disbelief as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke.

For such a big thing, it took him three days to get the news?

Why don't you just wait for the news to reach the capital and then inform him!

"My son also just found out...... Last night and overnight, all the state and county news channels of our Jin family to the capital were blocked...... If it weren't for the fact that the officials who had been planted in Fengcheng had not received a response for a long time, they had noticed that something was wrong, and ordered their subordinates to pass the book overnight...... I'm afraid that the news won't reach my father's ears at this moment—"

Jin Qingyun's pupils tightened, "What did you say?" ”

The news is blocked?!

This reminded him of the situation when the Xiling Forbidden Army entered Beijing a few months ago - there was no news at that time, and he was suspicious for a long time, and finally even went to the place where the news was interrupted to check the situation, but the strange thing is that the place where he went had already returned to normal, and he couldn't even find out the slightest mistake.

After a long time, there was no abnormality, and many times of investigation were fruitless, so he had to gradually let go of his suspicions.

But now the same situation has appeared, and listening to the description, it is even more serious and unconcealed than before--so grandly cut off his news exchange!

"It must be the Han family's ......!" Jin Yuming said: "First attacked to the south, and then blocked the road to the capital-"

Jin Yuming interrupted his speculation and said in a deep voice: "What's the use of saying this before finding out the truth, quickly let people find out what the problem is!" Also, let Yingqiong come to see me immediately! "The message channel is like the meridians in all parts of the body, and the meridians are all cut off by people, how do they work?

And if this person really wants to break the Jin family, I am afraid that the next step will be to move his right-hand man - all the military camps must be strictly guarded against and take precautions.

"Yes...... Son, let's do it! Jin Yuming should come down and leave the upper room in a hurry.

Jin Qingyun sat back in place and let out a deep breath, his eyes unfathomable.

It all came so suddenly, he needed to calm down and sort it out.

First the shops, then the message channel.

This is clearly the work of one person.

At the moment, who has the courage to offend the Jin family is obviously not the most important, the point is that who has the ability to change half of the wind and clouds in a short period of time, without him checking it.

Will it be the Han family?

His first reaction at first was also the Han family.

But when I calmed down at the moment, I felt that this speculation was too much to withstand scrutiny.

Who would that be......

There was a dark wave surging in Jin Qingyun's eyes, and he quietly clenched his palm.

"Master, the second son is here." The servant lowered his voice and prayed.

Jin Qingyun's eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed under his eyes.

His heart can be punished and ......!
