Chapter 6 Writing Letters
Weakly shouted again...... It's so hot ~Tickets~
I'm going to see the light, I'm going to see the light, and I've been tormented by the sound of slamming doors and broken thoughts for many days......
------Off topic------
Qin Lian lowered her head, "Huh? "Didn't you fight with my brother?" Why are you writing to him? β
The pen in Xie Fanghua's hand trembled.
Qin Lian didn't expect Xie Fanghua to look at her like this, she suddenly smiled, walked up to her, and grabbed her arm, "It's still my sister-in-law who hurts me!" β
"Yes, Miss!" The two turned and went.
Xie Mohan knew that the two of them were for wine, and Qin Lian must not have lied to Xie Yunji. That's why I came to her. She rubbed her forehead, "Waiter painting, waiter ink, you go and tell Brother Yunji and let him go back to his brother's Zhilan Garden." Bullying girls, he doesn't know how to blush! β
Xie Mohan was dumbfounded for a moment when he heard this.
"Not strict yet?" Qin Lian's eyes widened and looked at Xie Mohan angrily, "Even if your sister doesn't care about your sister's reputation, I will live in this Begonia Garden in the future!" What about my reputation? β
Xie Mo smiled, "The Xie family is in the same lineage, although there are many branches and leaves, but it is not as strict as the county lord said." β
"What did he do? He is a big man, how can he stay in a woman's boudoir casually? Even if he is a member of the same clan as the Xie clan, the bloodline of the relatives of the side branch is already far away. Spread it out, like what words! Qin Lian didn't say the reason why he hated Xie Yunji, only that Xie Yunji shouldn't stay here.
Xie Mohan looked at Qin Lian gently, "Why is the county lord so angry?" What did Yunji do? β
"Xie Mohan, it's just right that you're here! You kick Xie Yunji out for me! Qin Lian saw that Xie Mo was there, and suddenly attacked.
Xie Fanghua turned around, took out the letterhead from the drawer under the table, looked at the letterhead and thought for a moment, and just picked up the pen and wrote a name, she saw Qin Lian rushing into the house angrily, the bead curtain was crackling by her, and she looked up at her.
Xie Mohan smiled, "Okay! β
Xie Fanghua hesitated, "I'll write a letter to Qin Zheng now and let it be sent back!" β
"At Grandpa's!" Xie Mo said.
Xie Fanghua shook his head, "Grandpa doesn't even talk about his grandmother, expect him to say it?" When the words fell, she waved her hand, "Forget it, people are dead, and I don't want to know so much." After a pause, she asked Xie Mohan, "What about the bird that Qin Zheng sent a message to his grandfather?" β
"I don't know much about this matter, after my grandmother and parents disappeared one after another, the old lady of Xie's rice grain fell seriously ill. After being pulled back from the ghost gate, he has been sick and not getting better. In these years, I can't even go out of the house. Xie Mohan thought for a moment and said, "Maybe Grandpa can say something about the old lady." After a pause, he said, "If you want to know, why don't you ask Grandpa?" β
"Seeing the old lady leaving on her deathbed, she was thin into a handful of dry bones, and among the older generation of the Xie family, it is said that the grandmother and the old lady of the Xie family's rice grain did not let her eyebrows turn colored. I wondered why she had been sick for so many years. Xie Fanghua said.
Xie Mo was puzzled, "The old lady is now deceased, sister, why did you remember to ask this?" β
Xie Fanghua looked at Xie Mohan, was silent for a moment, and said softly, "Brother, do you know some things about the old lady of Xie's rice grain?" β
"Sister! Qin Zheng has done a lot for you, the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion and the Xie family are to protect, but it is not the end of one day or two days. There may be a long way to go. Don't delay yourself. The matter of friendship should be taken to heart. Xie Mohan said.
Xie Fanghua laughed and didn't speak.
"Grandpa said yesterday that you should write to him." Xie Mohan rubbed his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Today, my grandfather muttered when he received the letter, saying that the queen mother had calculated everything, and she was taken to the palace to raise Qin Lian as soon as she was born, in order to hold Prince Ying's mansion." But unexpectedly, in the end, there was a kid in Prince Ying's Mansion who took a fancy to the daughter of the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion, and in order to keep the Xie family, he pulled the Liu family and the Shen family to contain her son. β
"Then send him a message!" Xie Fanghua pursed her lips.
"Presumably so!" Xie Mo said.
Xie Fanghua was stunned, "Has the matter of Concubine Shen and the Shen family in Yuncheng been handled properly?" β
"Grandpa just received his letter! said that he had set off from Yuncheng to return to Beijing. Asuka has been in the capital for half a day, and now it is almost noon, which proves that his letter was sent from early this morning. Xie Mohan said.
"He's in Yuncheng now!" Xie Fanghua frowned.
"Who else! That is, Qin Zheng! Xie Mohan said.
"Is there anyone, besides Brother Yunlan, who can restrain Qin Yu to further catch Concubine Liu and the Liu family?" Xie Fanghua looked at the window, thinking that Yan Chen was not around, it would be best if she could be around, now that she has returned to Beijing, there is no way to go out again.
"Yes!" Xie Mohan sighed, "He must be extremely uncomfortable at this time!" β
Xie Fanghua shook his head, "Brother, the old lady of Xie's rice grain has just gone, so don't disturb Brother Yunlan." β
"There is another way, which is to take the child away when the fourth prince really takes that child." Xie Mohan said, "Yunlan should be able to find a way!" β
Xie Fanghua frowned, "If you abandon this one, then the cultivation that the Liu clan has spent on Li Meng for so many years will be ruined." As far as I know, Li Meng has been in Linfen Town, the main road of the capital for nearly 15 miles! Why can't Zhang Kun of the queen's mother family fight him, it's not all the support of the Liu family, and he also has his own ability. If it is abandoned, it is actually cutting off one of Liu's arms. He may not be useless for us in the future. β
Xie Mohan nodded.
"Brother is saying...... Abandon Li Meng and her wife? Xie Fanghua asked.
Xie Mohan lowered his head and pondered, and said after a while, "It depends on whether the Liu family is reluctant to give up this daughter and son-in-law." β
"Send someone now, if he has already done it, I'm afraid it's too late." Xie Fanghua said, "I came to you because I thought there was a way, even if he grabbed Li Meng's outer room and the child, he could cut it off." β
"If I send someone now, will it be too late?" Xie Mohan frowned.
"Qin Yu wants to pinch Brother Yun Ji, but Brother Yun Ji followed me back to Beijing, and his target is Li Meng, so now that we are all back, Li Meng is not his opponent. Make a trap, and Li Meng may be able to get into it. Xie Fanghua said.
Xie Mohan also became solemn when he heard this, "You said it very likely!" β
"I'm also Brother Yunlan suing me." Xie Fanghua's face was a little ugly, "Qin Yu now lives in Li Meng's mansion and settles in Linfen Town, I'm afraid he can find out too." If it is found, Li Meng will be regarded as a breakthrough and threatened Li Meng with an illegitimate child, in case something happens, I am afraid that everything we have done will be over. β
Xie Mohan shook his head, "I haven't heard of it." When the words fell, he frowned, "Over the years, the huge Xie family and the royal family have been talking openly and secretly, and I have no idea what about the son-in-law of the Liu family!" I just know Li Meng's person. He wasn't thoroughly investigated. β
Xie Fanghua was also stunned, "Brother, don't you know?" β
Xie Mohan was suddenly surprised, "Li Meng actually has an illegitimate child?" β
Xie Fanghua turned her head and told Xie Mohan about her worries.
When he entered the house, he saw Xie Fanghua looking out of the window with a solemn face, wiped his sweat with Na Juanpa, and asked, "Sister, you are in a hurry to find me, but there is something?" β
About two teas later, Xie Mohan hurriedly came to Begonia Garden.
The two of them knew what the young lady had in mind, so they responded and ran out of the Begonia Garden quickly.
Thinking of this possibility, she turned back to the waiter and said to the waiter, "What is my brother doing now?" Go and ask my brother to come. β
Xie Fanghua stood up suddenly, what would happen if that illegitimate son was like Li Meng's lifeline, if he was pinched by Qin Yu? Will Qin Yu use him to make a big fuss and force Li Meng to comply?
What is Li Meng's weakness? It was the illegitimate child born of his outer chamber!
Thinking like this, Xie Fanghua suddenly narrowed his eyes, the earth gunpowder had been replenished from the treasury, and none of the three hundred dead soldiers had been left, if he could dig a hole from the smoothed place again, then it could only be from Li Meng.
But what if they went? She had smoothed out the place where it should have been smoothed, unless, digging another hole from the place that had been smoothed.
Therefore, it is most appropriate for the Manchu Dynasty to send them to the civil and military forces.
Xie Fanghua lowered his head and pondered, but in a moment, he understood the emperor's thoughts, the emperor has been in charge of the Southern Qin River for twenty or thirty years, how can he not understand the battle between the queen, Concubine Shen, and Concubine Liu? Even if she and Brother Yunlan can't catch the tricks behind the scenes this time, they should guess that they can't get rid of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion. Zuo Xiang is loyal to the emperor, and Qin Hao can rely on the allegiance in addition to the Ying Prince's Mansion, that is, the emperor. Send the two of them, if they can find some clues, then they will definitely not be afraid of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion and suppress it.
The two of them nodded in unison, "The news is correct, that's right, the holy decree has just been issued." β
Xie Fanghua narrowed his eyes when he heard this, "The emperor actually sent Zuo Xiang and Qin Hao to Linfen Town together?" β
"When the slave and maid inquired about Xie's rice grain, they also got a piece of news." The two said softly, "The emperor has just issued an order to send Zuo Xiang and Grand Prince Qin to Linfen Bridge to thoroughly investigate the Linfen Bridge assassination case. Now Zuo Xiang and Grand Prince Qin are preparing to set off. β
Xie Fanghua nodded.
After a short time, the two came back and said to Xie Fanghua, "Xie's rice grain has hung up the white sails, and the son of Yunlan is keeping filial piety for the old lady." The old lady has been ill for too long, and the Xie family has already made preparations, so it is not chaotic, and the people in the house can do whatever they want. Except for the besieged Xie family's long house, the other Xie family's houses got the news and sent people to Xie's rice grain. β
Xie Fanghua picked up a book on the table, flipped through two pages, and put it down in a mood.
The two nodded and stepped back.
Xie Fanghua drank the medicine, looked at a plate of candied fruit, pinched one and ate it, raised his head and instructed the two, "Go and inquire, how is Xie's rice grain?" What is Brother Yunlan doing? β
One goes to serve the medicine, and the other goes to get the preserves.
Xie Fanghua nodded.
The two sighed, obediently closed the doors and windows, and cut off the sound coming from the back garden. When he turned around, he saw Xie Fanghua wake up from sleep, his complexion was a little better, and he said softly, "Miss, the medicine is ready, and now it is warm on the stove, bring it to you?" β
Xie Fanghua shook his head, "Help me close the doors and windows, and let them call!" β
"Miss, are you going out to fight?" The two looked at Xie Fanghua.
Xie Fanghua nodded and didn't speak.
The two glanced at each other and said in unison, "Isn't Yun Jigongzi boiling begonias in warm wine?" The county lord came, smelled the wine, and ran to the back garden, wanting to grab wine with Yun Jigongzi, but Yun Jigongzi didn't give it, and the two got into trouble. The lord of the county said that Yun Jigongzi was a big man and should not appear in the backyard of the woman's boudoir. In the future, she will live here, and she will drive Yun Jigongzi out. β
"What's going on in the back garden?" Xie Fanghua asked the two.
The painter and the ink immediately entered the house.
I don't know how long later, when she heard a faint noise in the back garden, she frowned, opened her eyes, sat up, and shouted outside.
I couldn't help but think about something in my head, and then I fell asleep in a daze.
After returning to the room, she listened to Xie Mohan's words, prescribed a prescription, and instructed the waiter to paint and serve ink to decoct the medicine. He lay on the soft couch and closed his eyes tiredly.
"He's laid-back!" Xie Fanghua said a word, ignored him, and entered the room.
The two hurriedly ran to the door to take a look, and came back to her and said, "It's Yun Jigongzi who is boiling begonias in warm wine!" β
Xie Fanghua turned back to Begonia Garden, the house was very quiet, after returning to Begonia Garden, she smelled a strong smell of wine and begonia in the back garden, she waved her hand behind her, and told the waiter to paint and serve ink to take a look.
Xie Mohan walked towards Rongfu Hall.
Xie Fanghua thought about it, but he really didn't have the strength to toss anymore and nodded.
Xie Mohan then stepped forward and said softly to Xie Fanghua, "Sister, your complexion is indeed very bad, grandpa is fine, I'll go over and see him." Go back to your room and rest! Prescribe a recipe yourself, and let the maidservant decoction give you a decoction. If you are sick, there will be even more people in our house. β
Qin Lian waved at her, "You don't have to thank me!" After the words fell, she walked towards Rongfutang by herself.
Xie Fanghua paused.
Qin Lian looked at her seriously, and when she saw that she looked tired and tired, and her complexion was extremely bad, she frowned, "I actually forgot that you are like a willow branch, and you will fall down as soon as the wind blows." So be it! You don't have to go to the old marquis, I'll accompany her instead of you. Go back to sleep! β
"No, I didn't sleep well last night!" Xie Fanghua put down his hand.
"Are you going to see the old marquis? I'll go with you, too! Qin Lian walked in front for a while, turned around and asked Xie Fanghua, seeing Xie Fanghua's headache, she suddenly lowered her face and said unhappily, "What kind of expression do you have?" Think I'm in trouble? Who said in front of the imperial aunt that he didn't dislike me for trouble. β
Xie Fanghua looked at her brisk figure walking in front, and her headache was even worse. I wondered if she should send someone to send a letter to Prince Ying and Princess Ying, asking her to return to Beijing as soon as possible.
Qin Lian jumped out of the carriage first, and then walked inside as if he was going back to his home.
Before I knew it, the carriage returned to the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong.
Xie Mohan sat aside, watching Qin Lian pestering Xie Fanghua, a little funny, secretly thinking that fortunately he only had this one sister, if there was another such sister, he would probably be sad.
Thinking of Xie Yunlan, I also remembered the deceased old lady Xie's rice grain and her dying words, and my mood sank again.
Along the way, Xie Fanghua kept reflecting on herself, earlier she pretended to be ignorant and naΓ―ve, how helpless Brother Yunlan should be!
Xie Fanghua rubbed her forehead vigorously, and if she didn't agree, Qin Lian kept dragging her arm and shaking, shaking her dizzy, and in desperation, she could only nod.
On the carriage, Qin Lian was a little excited, and repeatedly put forward conditions to Xie Fanghua, such as "I want to live in your Begonia Garden!" For example, "You have to give me warm wine and boil begonias." For example, "I heard that the peach blossoms and apricot blossoms are blooming all over the mountains, and you want to accompany me to see the peach blossoms and apricot blossoms." For example, "This time you have recovered from a serious illness, it is time to go out of the house and walk around, and we will go to play together at my aunt's poetry appreciation party next month." "Wait.
As the master and servant spoke, Xie Fanghua and Qin Lian had already taken Xie Mohan's car and walked out of the palace's sight.
The queen nodded.
"And Concubine Shen! Holding one, even if Concubine Liu has the support of the Marquis of Zhongyong, she is not afraid of her. Ruyi said.
"What else can I do? We can't grasp the handle of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, and we can't do anything about the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion! Let's wait for Yu'er to return to Beijing! The queen grinds her teeth, "Cheap Concubine Liu, that slut!" β
Ruyi also made a difficulty, "But what should we do!" β
The queen smiled, proud and worried, "Because the emperor loves the four princes, if nothing else, my son is the future Ninety-Five." The Marquis of Zhongyong was afraid that he would succeed his father, and once he ascended the throne, it would be even more difficult for the Xie family. Now protect Concubine Liu and the Liu family and contain him. β
Ruyi suddenly became solemn and nervous when she heard this, "When you say this, the slave maid also thinks that this matter is like the work of Concubine Liu and the Liu family." But the emperor wants to get rid of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, and our four princes don't have the heart to do so. Why did the Marquis of Zhongyong choose Concubine Liu and the Liu family instead of our four princes? β
"In other words, I have been fighting with Concubine Liu and Concubine Shen for more than 20 years." The queen sneered, "What methods do they use, after so many years, how can I not know?" If my Yu'er returns to the capital safely this time, it will definitely be the same as before. How could they let him return to Beijing safely, from the family inside the palace to the outside of the palace, for the sake of future glory, how could they not gamble on the ship? β
"It's been more than twenty years." Ruyi said.
The queen sighed, "Ruyi, how many years have you been in this palace with me?" β
Ruyi's face turned a little pale, "Niangniang, didn't you say that you are investigating thoroughly now?" How can you be sure? What if not! β
"It's not better than the Zhulian Nine Clans." The more the queen said, the more sure she became, "I guess this time it must have been Concubine Liu and the Liu family who blew up the Linfen Bridge and wanted to kill Yu'er, but they were secretly suppressed by the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion." It must be a union. β
Ruyi was shocked by the queen's words for a long time, and then said, "Niangniang, are you too careful?" The royal family has always wanted to get rid of the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion, how could Concubine Liu and the Liu family not know the relationship between the royal family and the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion now? If the emperor knows, can Concubine Liu and the Liu family be better? β
If Concubine Liu and the Liu clan unite with the Marquis of Zhongyong, then it will undoubtedly increase a big bargaining chip.
