Chapter 288: Aunt (Second Shift)

The nights of late summer and early autumn are more bleak and cold, less noisy midsummer nights, quiet and sparse all around, and the night is thick......

Such a night can make people feel comfortable, cool and comfortable, and feel poetic, but it can also be desolate and worried, depending on everyone's state of mind at the moment.

In the quiet room, there is no sound at all, only a faint scent of sandalwood. Except for the hazy moonlight cast in from the window, the only light in the room was the ever-bright lamp on the desk, and the only breath came from the futon in front of the desk.

Jin Xida sat cross-legged, looked up at the portraits of Donnie Yen and Xia Linxuan on the wall, and did not speak.

As long as he is in the capital, he is used to coming over every day before going to bed to "chat" for a while, talking about the three brothers and sisters of Shujie, and talking about his joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and then he will feel extremely down-to-earth.

But tonight he didn't want to speak, so he wanted to sit like this, just like that......

He needed to relax, feeling that his nerves had been stretched too hard over the years, and that the wind and grass would make him prick up his ears. He wasn't like that before, but ...... In the past, he was just alone, but now, he has to honor his mother and have a family to take care of.

Only by sitting here, feeling Donnie Yen's smile and the trust and trust in Xia Linxuan's eyes, can he really relax.

Suddenly, Kim Hee Da, who was completely relaxed, tensed up again in an instant, and he heard a faint voice of Hi Hissoso, and the night was too quiet.

Kim Heeda got up quietly and retreated into the long hanging curtain on the left, not forgetting to take the futon that he had been sitting on for a long time and was inevitably warm.

The cylindrical curtain of blue was thick, and as long as the people who came did not come in to search for him, it was the best hiding place in the house.

Because of this house. In addition to the two portraits on the wall, the incense and candle offerings, the two futons in front of the table, and a pair of blue hanging curtains on the left and right. Nothing else.

Kim Heeda just hid it. I heard the door gently pushed open and then slammed shut. From the sound of people's footsteps and breathing, Jin Xida can judge whether this is a woman or a woman who doesn't know martial arts.

Two words flashed in his mind: Mo Niang.

There are guards on duty in the Hou Mansion, and the master quietly touches in, how can a woman without martial arts be?

I finally couldn't bear it anymore and stretched out my horse's feet! Kim Heeda's eyes burst with fierceness. It turns out that it's all a disguise to go or something. But what can you do when you touch this room in the middle of the night? Shouldn't it be his or Shujie's study? There is nothing here. Also, who is so sure that he actually sent a fine work without martial arts to the Yongping Marquis Mansion.

Mo Niang closed the door and waited for a while, making sure that there was still silence and no movement around her, before she took out the candle and flint from her bosom and lit the candle.

Jin Xida, who saw all this through the cracks in the curtain, snorted secretly, but she was cautious, and brought a small teacup to place the candle.

Mo Niang approached the portrait with a candle. Jin Xida's heart suddenly lifted, and she almost didn't fly out of the body directly. What is she going to do? Burning portraits?

In the next moment, I saw Mo Niang's tearful face under the candlelight.

What's going on? Jin Xida was stunned again, he found that this strange girl could always make him very sure one moment, but the next moment he was confused.

Mo Niang held a candle in one hand, and touched Donnie Yen's portrait with the other hand tremblingly: "Sister, brother-in-law, Mo Niang has come to see you." ”

Kim Heeda was completely stunned, "sister"? "Brother-in-law"? Mo Niang is Rou'er's sister? How can it be? Zhen Mansion is a daughter, the above two are brothers, where did they come from, but the scene in front of her is really real, the tears on Mo Niang's face, mixed with excitement and joy, and the complex expression do not seem to be fake at all.

Mo Niang put the teacup with the candle fixed on the case, and respectfully saluted the portraits of Donnie Yen and Xia Linxuan: "Sister, brother-in-law, in order not to be found suspicious, I won't burn incense for you, give you a salute, and when I pass through Yulin, I will go to your grave to worship." In Yulin for a few months, I didn't dare to go to your grave, sister, I'm so sad. ”

Jin Xida almost held her breath, for fear that the slightest movement would wake up Mo Niang.

Mo Niang sat down on the futon and continued to speak to the portrait: "Sister, it turns out that I really look very similar to you, no wonder the second brother told his mother, look at me if you miss you." Sister, do you know the way? How much does my father miss you, since the second brother learned that you have passed away, do you know how long Lu Dao Niang has been crying? Dad and mother regretted that they left you in the Zhen family at the beginning, they thought that they were doing their best to protect you, but they didn't expect that the people of the Zhen family would be so conscienceless. ”

Mo Niang really has no way to call Mrs. Zhen "aunt", and she is even more reluctant to admit that people like Zhen's house are relatives. In fact, not only Mo Niang and her second brother, but also Mo Niang's father, since Zhilu Dao's eldest daughter was sold to Murong Mansion Chongxi by her own sister, she broke off her relationship in her heart.

Mo Niang's words Jin Xida heard it very clearly, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes, what ...... What the? Rou'er is not from the Zhen family? What the hell is going on? So whose daughter is Rou'er?

Jin Xida didn't doubt what Mo Niang said just now, Mo Niang is indeed very similar to Donnie Yen. He had always thought that it was deliberately found by the people behind the scenes, but if it was his own sister, it would be too reasonable. However, who are the two sisters who are not members of the Zhen family?

Kim Heeda was completely stunned and shocked for a moment, not noticing that the door of the room was opened a crack.

Mo Niang couldn't even find out that the people in the Hou Mansion had a very regular life and rest, and she was sure that at this time, except for the guards on duty and the porters, everyone else was already asleep, so she dared to sit here and talk to her sister.

Mo Niang continued: "Sister, I originally wanted to live here for two more years, and it would be best to watch Yao'er get married, and Wen'er will be named on the gold list. I hope to take care of the three of them for my sister, and make up for some regrets for my father, but now...... I can't help but leave, if someone finds out my identity, or even the relationship between us, I'll cause a catastrophe, kill my whole family, and kill their three siblings. ”

Jin Xida was more and more shocked, Rou'er's family wouldn't be the imperial court's criminals, right? (I have to say, he is the truth)

Mo Niang sighed and continued, "Sister." The only thing I wanted to do before leaving. It's to bring your portrait back to show your parents. lest they regret it for the rest of their lives. But now, I've changed my mind, I want to take you and my brother-in-law away, I think, you don't want to be separated, right? Sister, you wouldn't object, would you?

I heard that these two portraits were painted by Yao'er, so I took them away, and Yao'er can paint two more. If I don't take it, Daddy doesn't know what you look like in this life. Mo Niang's voice began to choke.

"But sister, what I'm worried about is that I heard that Master Jin will come to this house every day, in case he finds out when he returns home tomorrow, and I haven't gone far yet, will they think that I took it, will they chase me? So, sister, I can only play a little trick so that they don't suspect me. Sister. You don't blame me for lying to them, do you? ”

Jin Xida was thinking about what the "little trick" in Mo Niang's mouth would be, when she saw her take out something from her arms. Secretly funny, it seems that she is really well prepared, and there are a lot of treasures hidden on her!

Suddenly, a silver light flickered in front of her eyes, it was the reflection of the dagger in Mo Niang's hand in the candlelight, I saw Mo Niang spread out a piece of paper, and then almost used all her strength to stab into the dagger, embedding the note on the note.

Kim Heeda was curious, what was written on that note? Of course, no matter how curious he was, he didn't dare to move at the moment, for fear of causing any noise.

Mo Niang looked left and right at the dagger, quite satisfied: "Well, it's quite deep, at first glance, it's a master's handwriting, they should believe it, right?" ”

Kim Heeda almost didn't laugh out loud, he was quite a "master". The strength of breastfeeding is suffocated, well, it's really a "master"!

At this time, "Bangβ€”β€”,Bangβ€”β€”,Bang-" There was a drumbeat outside, and it was already three watches.

Mo Niang hurriedly stepped forward to take the painting, Mo Niang was also tall, although it was a little difficult, she stretched out her arms on tiptoe, and finally took down the two portraits, rolled them carefully, took out a piece of red brocade and wrapped it, and then extinguished the candle and put it away, ready to withdraw from the court.

Kim Heeda was hesitating to "catch the person who stole the portrait red-handedly" when he suddenly heard a barely audible sound, the sound of the door closing, someone outside the door? Come to pick up the stranger? No, Mo Niang Ji is leaving tomorrow morning.

Kim Heeda decided to stay silent and see what they were going to do.

Mo Niang went out lightly, calculating that they had walked ten or so steps, Jin Xida opened the door and was about to follow out of the road, but a hand suddenly appeared to block him, and said hurriedly before he spoke: "Father-in-law, it's me." "It's Shujie.

Shujie pulled Jin Xida back to the house and closed the door: "Father-in-law, Mo Niang is my mother's biological sister and the aunt of our three brothers and sisters. ”

Jin Xida already had a bottom in his heart, and he was not too surprised, and asked, "You were outside the door just now?" He had to make sure that there was no fourth person who knew what had just happened and heard Mo Niang's words, and then he could settle down and ask the ins and outs.

"Yes," Shujie nodded, "I've been observing my aunt for a few days, and that day I happened to hear her talking to Mother Yan about my father's portrait, and then I heard her talking about the portrait of my father and mother, and then I heard her say that she was in charge of the cleaning of the main courtyard, and I had a hunch that she might want to see my mother's portrait before leaving." Unexpectedly, she wanted to take the portrait away. ”

"Wait," Kim Heeda felt that something was wrong, "you already knew that she was your aunt?" ”

Shujie shook his head: "No, I just suspected that as soon as my aunt heard that the princess of Zhangzhu would recognize her as a righteous sister and might enter the palace to see the queen mother, she was about to leave, and I strengthened my suspicions." For any ordinary person, this is a good thing for the ancestral tomb to smoke and glorify the ancestors. It was only after listening to my aunt that I finally determined her identity. ”

There is no need for Jin Xida to ask, Shujie hurriedly told the truth about the life experience in Donnie Yen's diary. Yao'er was suspicious at first, but her aunt was very cautious and covered it up very well, deliberately saying a lot of specious things about her family background, growth environment, etc., to dispel Yao'er's suspicions.

Jin Xida pondered for a while: "Your aunt's concerns are also reasonable, let her go back to the northwest quietly according to her own plan." I'm looking for an opportunity to find out what happened to your grandfather's house.

You can arrange it tomorrow, find a reason to lock this room first, and wait for Yao'er to redraw the two portraits. By the way, don't let Wen'er know about this matter first, that kid was reluctant to let Mo Niang leave, and it would be bad if he accidentally showed something. This is not a trivial matter, and we must be extremely cautious.

Shujie hurriedly responded, and Donnie Yen's diary said that her second brother told her that the Yun family was framed back then. Shujie was originally going to secretly investigate the case in which the Yun family was involved in the conviction back then, but now it is more convenient for his father-in-law to come forward.

Kim Heeda is responsible for secretly investigating officials at all levels and obtaining information on officials in sensitive positions. It is more convenient for him to access the information of past and current officials, and it will not arouse the suspicion of anyone, including the emperor.

The two of them made a decision, and suddenly, almost at the same time, they thought of something, and they all turned their heads to look at the note on the case.

Shujie raised his hand slightly, pulled out the dagger, picked up the note and quickly glanced at it, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled and handed it to Jin Xida, this aunt is so cute, but her "little trick" is indeed feasible. (To be continued......)
