Chapter 1: Night Encounters

After Xie Mohan got into the car, he couldn't help but laugh when he heard the conversation between the two, and said a word to the waiter, and the carriage headed towards the Zhongyong Marquis's mansion.

"Good assurance!" Xie Yunji immediately made a guarantee.

Xie Fanghua was funny, thinking that although Qin Yu was a hundred miles away, he might still be able to reach out and pinch Xie Yunji. After all, Xie Yunji has done a lot of work for her, and it can be regarded as exposed. The Marquis of Zhongyong is not afraid of him alone. Nodding, "Okay! Brother Yunji, you have to be well-behaved. ”

"My family is not safe, I might as well live in the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong!" Xie Yunji looked at her helplessly, "Sister Fanghua, you want to take me in!" I have no home to return to after I saddle the horse for you. ”

Qin Hao knew that after Xie Fanghua got out of the carriage, he realized that she was also in Xie Yunlan's carriage, and he felt that after going out to suppress bandits for such a long time, the news was blocked, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Naturally, he couldn't enter the palace late at night to reply to the decree, so he naturally went back to Prince Ying's mansion. Xie Fanghua got into the carriage and saw Xie Yunji sitting in the carriage, and said to him, "You really don't want to go home, you want to go to live in the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, right?" ”

A carriage slowly marched towards the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong, and a carriage was surrounded by a group of people, and Haohao Tang went towards Xie's rice grain.

After the two left, Xie Yunlan returned to his carriage, opened the curtain, and saw that Xie Yunji was gone. He glanced back at Xie Mohan's carriage and slowly got into the carriage.

Xie Mo bowed his head, said no more, and walked towards his carriage with Xie Fanghua.

Xie Yunlan nodded, "I'm going back to Beijing to visit the old marquis, I don't have anything to do tomorrow, I must go!" ”

"He's used to you!" Xie Mohan couldn't help but laugh, shook his head helplessly, and bowed his hand to Xie Yunlan, "If there is nothing to do tomorrow, come and sit in the mansion!" ”

"Brother, you're really worried! I stayed with Brother Yunlan for a few days, and he didn't nag me like you, you nagged as soon as you met. Xie Fanghua rubbed his forehead, "Let's go!" Let's go home. ”

Xie Mo smiled, "That is, you think he is well-behaved." When the words fell, I saw Xie Fanghua jump down from the carriage, walked towards him quickly, frowned, and said softly, "Be careful, the skirt is so long, you are not afraid of falling yourself." ”

Xie Yunlan shook his head, "How can it be considered hard?" She was very well-behaved all the way. ”

"Yunlan!" Xie Mohan smiled slightly, "It's hard for you to send my sister back!" ”

Everyone followed Xie Yunlan's line of sight. Xie's rice grain has been secretly separated from Xie's family, and now he has come with the name of Xie's family, and he has not pierced this layer of window paper. Many people openly and secretly do not buy the accounts of the Marquis of Zhongyong. Therefore, even if Xie Mohan's carriage came, except for a few people who paid attention, not many people paid attention. What's more, he never got out of the car.

"Shizi!" Xie Yunlan ignored these people anymore and greeted the people who got out of the carriage from the dark corner and walked this way.

Everyone was obviously familiar with Xie Yunlan's temperament, and they all nodded in unison.

Xie Yunlan couldn't slow down the carriage, and said to those people with a flat face, "I'm tired of you coming to the city gate to greet you, and let's talk back to the house!" ”

The housekeeper of Xie's rice grain had already come back to say goodbye one step earlier, and at this time, he stepped forward with a group of people and surrounded Xie Yunlan's carriage to ask for warmth.

As he spoke, the convoy slowly stopped.

Xie Fanghua nodded, he now has a delicate relationship with Xie's rice grain, and he has separated Xie's rice grain, besides, his temperament does not want to live in Xie's rice grain. The only concern is the old lady.

Xie Yunlan pursed his lips, "I'll go back to see the old lady first, and later, I'll go to my own mansion." ”

Xie Fanghua looked at him with some reluctance, "Brother Yunlan, are you going back to the Xie family's rice grain mansion to live?" ”

"I originally wanted to send you to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, but now it seems that I don't need to!" Xie Yunlan also saw Xie Mohan's carriage.

Her heart suddenly got better.

Compared with the strong battle of Xie's rice grain, my brother only has one car, which is almost inconspicuous.

She looked along the curtain that Xie Yunji had opened, and she pressed a group of people, she glanced at it, and she didn't know any of them. Looking away, she saw a black carriage parked in the dimly lit corner of the city gate, and her eyes lit up, it was her brother's carriage. He must have gotten the news and came to pick her up.

Others only envy their identity and glory, but they can't see what they carry.

Xie Fanghua looked at the two, as the surname Xie, what can be brought to them is no longer glory, but a burden. She also pursed her lips, thinking about how many people are still proud of being from the Xie family now? There should still be a lot of them. After all, the sons of Xie's rice grain and Xie's salt warehouse are unique.

Xie Yunlan pursed his lips and stopped talking.

Xie Yunji was stunned for a moment, savored this sentence, and said with a smile, "It's too!" Pity...... It's not that you don't want to have a surname and you don't have a surname. With one foot in the quagmire, how can you go out so lightly? ”

Xie Yunlan tugged at the corners of his mouth, "It's not bad if you don't have the surname Xie." ”

Xie Yunji sighed, "Forget it!" It's okay for me to leave home for ten days and eight days, if it's three years ......," he said, "Then I don't have to thank you for my last name!" ”

"You can also try it away from home for three years! Maybe there is this treatment too! The expression on Xie Yunlan's face was faint.

"What a battle!" Xie Yunji opened the curtain, glanced out, sighed, turned back to Xie Yunlan and said, "You, the son of Xie's rice grain, are more stylish than me, the son of Xie's salt warehouse, I have never seen such treatment." ”

The gate of the city was not yet closed, and the door was brightly lit, and a group of people were standing at the gate waiting.

Before midnight, they came to the gate of the city.

The remaining twenty miles were half an hour's walk.

For coming to the capital, he longed for it a long time ago, but who knew that he finally left the family and set foot in Beijing, but instead of entering the capital, he arranged for him to follow Qin Hao to experience. He was extremely dissatisfied, but he could only endure it. Now it's good to be in Beijing. It is said that the girl in the painting boat of the Qinglou in Beijing is extremely beautiful and charming......

Lu Quan guckled, "Okay! ”

If he still doesn't understand anything, the muddy waters of the capital will boil him.

Qin Hao choked up, and scolded secretly in his heart, the Lu family really except for one Lu Yi is a bunch of wastes, such a thing is placed next to him, all the way, like an idiot, he is about to vomit blood. I don't understand how the Lu family has taught their children and grandchildren for so many years, no wonder as the emperor's mother family, the emperor has been useless for so many years, and it is only now that he remembers that his mother family promoted Lu Yi. He waved his hand helplessly, "When I return to Beijing, I'll let someone tell you about the things in Beijing!" ”

Lu Quan choked and asked strangely, "Why did the fourth prince give him a long face like this?" ”

Qin Hao snorted coldly and warned him, "Didn't you just hear Xie Yunlan say that the fourth prince invited the Linfen army to send two hundred people back to Beijing?" Even the four princes treated him like this, do you think the people of the merchants can be compared with the people of the eunuchs? ”

"You're too strict, aren't you? Can a merchant be compared with an eunuch? Lu Quan disagreed.

Qin Hao glanced at Lu Quan and shook his head, "Xie Clan's rice grain, Xie Clan's salt warehouse, their heirs come out, and all the sons in the capital must be polite and give three points." What do I have to give way? You just came to the capital, you don't understand the muddy waters in the capital, and you must be cautious in your words and deeds in the future. Otherwise, I won't be able to protect you. ”

Lu Quan, the young man who had been on a par with Feng Li earlier, approached Qin Hao, "Eldest Prince, you are the eldest prince of Prince Ying's Mansion, what are you courteous to a person from the side branch of the Xie family?" ”

Qin Hao waved his hand, and three thousand people walked behind.

After two teas, Xie Yunlan's team walked by and walked in front.

As soon as Qin Hao waved his hand, his people all stepped aside, letting Xie Yunlan's team go first.

From beginning to end, Xie Yunji and Xie Fanghua did not show their heads inside.

"Then thank you Grand Master Qin!" Xie Yunlan didn't say anything more, thanked him, and the curtain fell.

"Dare to harm the four princes, the courage is really not small." Qin Hao said again, and said to Xie Yunlan, "Brother Yunlan, it's better for you to invite first!" I'll postpone, after all, there are a lot of people here, and you have few people, how can I make you wait for a long time? ”

Xie Yunlan shook his head, "I haven't found out yet!" ”

"The queen mother has always missed the four princes, and now that he is back, the queen mother can finally show her face." Qin Hao looked at Xie Yunlan, "Can you find out who framed it?" ”

Xie Yunlan stopped answering.

"I have heard that something big happened at Linfen Bridge, but I haven't gotten any news about it. It turned out to be this. Qin Hao was stunned.

Xie Yunlan glanced at Qin Hao carefully, and saw that he really didn't know, he bowed his head, "The fourth prince has returned to Beijing, and when he passed through the junction of Linfen Town and Qifeng City, someone was persecuted. Although he was unscathed, he also delayed the trip. For the time being, stay in the Linfen Military Mansion and wait for the emperor's will to investigate thoroughly. I was afraid that something would happen on our way, so I asked Li Tongbing to send someone to escort me. ”

"He's back to Beijing so soon?" Qin Hao was surprised.

Xie Yunlan nodded.

Qin Hao was stunned, "The Fourth Prince? Qin Yu? ”

Xie Yunlan smiled, but he didn't hide it, "It was the fourth prince who ordered Li Tongbing of Linfen Town to send two hundred people to me. ”

More than half of the smart people in the capital know that Xie's rice grain has long been separated from the Xie family's Zhongyong Marquis's mansion, and Xie's rice grain has already been secretly accepted by the emperor, so Xie Yunlan is not a simple grain merchant's son. Of course, few people know that Xie Yunlan separated Xie's rice grain. Qin Hao didn't know either.

"Brother Yunlan is polite!" Qin Hao smiled and glanced at the government soldiers in Xie Yunlan's team, "Brother Yunlan is escorted by the soldiers of the government!" It's ......" he paused, inquiring.

"The eldest prince is returning from official business, and it is very hard, please first!" Xie Yunlan also arched his hand.

"yes!" Qin Hao arched his hand, "Brother Yunlan, please first!" ”

"It's a coincidence that we can meet!" Xie Yun continued.

Qin Hao suddenly smiled and said, "I was ordered by the emperor to suppress bandits, and I was homesick when I went out for more than ten days, so I hurried overnight." ”

"I haven't been back to Beijing for three years, it's close to home, and I haven't settled dozens of miles away at night, so I can only travel late at night." Xie Yunlan smiled, "Why did the eldest prince return to Beijing late at night?" ”

Yunlan, the son of Xie's rice grain, left the capital three years ago to live in Pingyang City, and has never returned to Beijing and faded out of people's sight. Now that he is suddenly back, he has returned to Beijing late at night, and he is accompanied by government soldiers, how can it not be surprising?

"Why did Brother Yunlan return to Beijing late at night?" Qin Hao carefully glanced at Xie Yunlan's team and saw that there were three or four hundred people in Haohao's soup. It was extraordinarily spectacular, especially with half of the government soldiers accompanying him, which surprised him a little.

Xie Yunlan slowly opened the curtain at this time and glanced out, Qin Hao was riding on a horse, although it was late at night, he was still angry. If he doesn't compare with Qin Zheng, he is definitely outstanding. He said lightly, "It turned out to be the eldest prince of Qin!" It's rude! ”

Feng Li saw that this person was Qin Hao, so it was no longer his turn to speak, and turned his head to look at the car.

"Lu Quan, don't talk nonsense!" Walking in the middle of the three thousand team, one person urged the horse to step forward, it was Qin Hao, he first reprimanded the person, and then arched his hand at Xie Yunlan's team, "It turned out to be the Yunlan son of Xie's rice grain!" The subordinate juniors don't understand the rules and are disrespectful! ”

Feng Li choked, he didn't expect to meet an old hat, and he hadn't even heard the name of his son-in-law. Fu thought about it again, and the son had left the capital for three years. In less than half a year, there have been earth-shattering changes in the capital, let alone three years. He didn't know how to refute it for a moment.

He returned Kazari's words to him.

"Who is Xie Yunlan? People from the Xie family? The man sneered, "No wonder it's so rampant!" Which onion of the Xie family is he? ”

"My son-in-law is Xie Yunlan!" Feng Li said this, and didn't hear Xie Yunlan stop him in the car, so he boldly reported his name.

"Who is your son-in-law? Let him out! The man was in a hurry, and the big knife in front of the horse was clenched, as if to rush over.

Feng Li said unhurriedly, "I've always talked like this to unreasonable people, and my son-in-law didn't say anything!" Which onion are you to take care of me! ”

When the man heard this, he was furious, "How do you speak?" Be careful that Lao Tzu teaches you. ”

Feng Li snorted, "Each goes his own way, why do you want to ask us if you don't report your name?" You asked, why should I sue you? Who prescribes the truth! ”

"What about you, I ask?" The man raised an eyebrow in dissatisfaction.

"Who are you?" Feng Li asked rhetorically in front of the car.

"Who's up ahead?" At this time, in front of Qin Hao's team, someone shouted.

Xie Fanghua smiled coldly. Regarding the Xie family's long house, because there is a loyal and brave marquis mansion on it, and the head of the Xie clan is on it. Therefore, how to deal with it, the emperor must take into account the thoughts of the Xie family, and the Xie family must also consider it.

Xie Yunji nodded, "If the case is not solved for a day, I'm afraid the Royal Forest Army will not withdraw!" ”

Xie Fanghua's eyes narrowed and nodded, the fire in the Fafo Temple, she is not really related to Qin Hao, but if it doesn't matter, she doesn't believe it. Even if he has Dongzhu in his hand, it doesn't mean that he didn't participate in that matter. Thinking of the Xie family's long house, she asked, "The Xie family's long house is still besieged by the Imperial Forest Army?" ”

"Since he dares to come back! I must have Dongzhu in my hand. Xie Yun continued.

"Yes!" Xie Fanghua laughed, "Last time I thoroughly investigated the matter of Dongzhu, the people who had Dongzhu were none other than the three princes, the fourth prince, the fifth prince, the eighth prince, Qin Hao, Qin Zheng, Qin Yi, Qin Pei, Xie Mohan, and Yan Ting. On that day, the four princes were no more, Qin Hao was no more, Qin Yi, Qin Pei, and Yan Ting were not there. Now that he's back, this matter can't be spared by him. ”

Xie Yunji blinked and smiled, "Why can't it be him?" He asked for an order to suppress the bandits, counting from the day before the burning of the Dharma Buddha Temple, and wanted to prove his ability to the emperor, and now it is almost time to come back. ”

Xie Fanghua was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched, he glared at Xie Yunji, and asked him, "Qin Hao?" How is he? ”

"Your future uncle!" Xie Yun continued.

"Who?" Xie Fanghua glanced out, but the other party didn't light a few torches, so he couldn't see clearly.

Xie Yunji heard the movement, opened the curtain and took a look, "Yo he", and said with a smile, "It seems that it is not only our team that returns to Beijing in the middle of the night, do they all like to march at night now?" ”

There were about 3,000 men in that pair, all dressed in uniforms.

After walking another thirty miles, and when there were still twenty miles from the capital, a team of men and horses came from the oblique side of the road and met the pair of convoys.

The road was very peaceful, and after dark, the guards and soldiers in the ranks lit torches to illuminate the official road.

Feng Li gave another command to the team, and the team continued to move forward.

"Keep going!" Xie Yunlan nodded.

Feng Li didn't immediately respond when she heard this, she was still waiting for Xie Yunlan to give an order, and asked in a low voice, "Childe?" ”

"That's a good feeling!" Xie Yunji waved his hand to the outside, "Then hurry up!" Keep on your way! I don't stop it, and I don't stop it. ”

"After you go back, I will lock you in the Begonia Pavilion and let you eat and drink as you like." Xie Fanghua said.

Xie Yunji glanced at Xie Fanghua, "You boil begonias in warm wine, and there are begonia flower cakes made by Aunt Fu." I want to eat it. ”

Xie Fanghua also felt that he had just made a heavy move, and looked at him and said funny, "You don't want to have your own home, what do you want my family to do?" ”

Xie Yunji sizzled in pain, "Ruthless little girl, you hit so hard!" Go home if you want to! When the words fell, he snorted and chirped, "I miss your family too." ”

Before he finished speaking, Xie Fanghua screwed him fiercely, and said viciously, "Don't talk about that!" If you don't want to go back, you can get out of the car and live here, and Brother Yunlan and I will go back to Beijing. ”

Xie Yunji choked, "You have been away for many years, and I haven't seen you ......"

"I miss home! I missed my grandfather. Xie Fanghua said.

Xie Yunji's eyes widened suddenly, "Little girl, why are you in such a hurry?" When I left the capital, Prince Ying, Princess Ying, Xie Shizi, and your grandfather were still living in my mountain and forest courtyard. Now in just two or three days, I may not be able to return home. ”

Xie Yunlan stopped when he heard this, and turned his head to look at Xie Fanghua.

"No! Continue to hurry, even in the middle of the night, you have to hurry back to Beijing. Xie Fanghua immediately interrupted Xie Yunlan's words.

Xie Yunlan nodded, "Well, that's right, then ......"

Xie Yunji didn't wait for Xie Yunlan to speak, and immediately shouted, "What else are you asking?" Stop and rest, of course! I was tired to death, and I hurried into the capital again, and it was the middle of the night. ”

Fengli asked Xie Yunlan if he would stop and stay overnight. There is also its own annex.

It was ten minutes dark, and the team was still fifty miles away from the capital, and happened to come to a small town.
