Chapter 228: Identity Leak
Soon, both the Xia family and Duan Ziyi, who was named the Zheng family, received a conscription order from Mu Qing.
Xia Cong came over to ask for ideas.
Xia Hanqiu smiled, "You are a big family in the merchants, and you moved from elsewhere, it is very likely that you will be squeezed out by other merchants in Huiting City, and the Xia family is the in-law of the Fu family, it is impossible for Mu Qing not to know this, no matter what aspect you think about, you can't be stingy, then just be generous and help your in-laws, no one has anything to say, anyway, in the eyes of most people, the marriage of the two families in Fuxia is the Xia family and the Fu family." ”
"Then I'll think about it when I go back, it's always right to listen to you." Xia Cong let out a long sigh, "The Xia family's little family background, if there is no protection in this troubled era, I am afraid that they will not be able to survive at all, no matter how much they give out, it is much better than that situation." ”
"You can figure it out, did grandfather say that?"
"No, my father has already said that he will no longer care about the affairs of the family, if there is anything that cannot be decided, let me come to you."
Xia Hanqiu didn't know what kind of expression to put on, "Uncle, don't roast me on the fire, if I often point fingers at the affairs of the Xia family, what do you let other people think, you really need me, let's discuss it in private, don't let others know, otherwise I really won't care." ”
"I'm really worried, your uncle doesn't have any brains at all?" Out of the corner of Xia Cong's eyes, he saw that the smile of his cousin who was sitting next to him remained unchanged, and his heart was at ease.
After talking for a while, Xia Cong glanced at his niece, got up and left.
Shaking his head slightly at Changzhi, who was about to get up with him, Xia Hanqiu followed.
The two nephews and uncles walked a little farther away. Xia Cong said in a low voice: "The steward below told me that the Jiang family has been making frequent moves in the past two days, and it seems that they have a relationship with the Lord of Mucheng, do you think it's inappropriate?" ”
"The Jiang family? The maiden home of the eldest cousin? ”
"Yes."
Xia Hanqiu didn't get any news about this, and he couldn't say one, two, or three for a while, "Have you asked your eldest cousin?" ”
"I'm worried about keeping them on guard, so I haven't asked yet, but lately, your eldest cousin has been coming home a little more often."
"I see, uncle. You don't do anything first. I asked people to check what was going on. Seeing that the uncle's brows were not gone, Xia Hanqiu comforted: "Mu Qing will leave in a few days, even if the Jiang family catches him, it doesn't matter much, and the pavilion will be managed by other people from the Mu family in the future." If someone approaches that person. That's when you should worry. ”
"That person is not easy to get along with?"
"It doesn't matter much to us whether it's good or not. There are some things you don't know, and it's time not to talk about them for a while, so don't worry about them. Pay more attention to it. ”
Xia Cong nodded in response, and immediately patted his head, "The words have been taken away by you, I am worried that the Jiang family and the Mucheng Lord are getting closer, not that I am worried that he will tell you and your uncle, the Jiang family is different from other people's families, your eldest cousin knows some things, and she may not say it when she returns to her parents' house, and she also knows about the marriage of the Taoist Lord when you get married, if the Jiang family informs the Mucheng Lord of these circumstances, you should be a good thing?" ”
Xia Hanqiu diverted the topic because he didn't want his uncle to think too much, which would change the topic and failed, so he had to say: "Don't think about it so much, you have to find out before you can make up your mind, but you have to say it in advance from the eldest cousin, lest he hate me if I really want to do something." ”
"He dares! You don't know what to do, you, you just think too much about the Xia family, if I wasn't able to hold on, maybe someone else would have caused a big disaster because of your connivance. ”
Xia Hanqiu was silent, "I only have to be such a family, who is good for you and for whom?" Uncle, you've always been so steady, I don't want to change. ”
Xia Cong glanced at her deeply, "It's for your words, I will hold on, okay, turn around, just a few steps away, don't send it, remember to check the Jiang family carefully." ”
"Got it, uncle."
As soon as he returned to the house, Xia Hanqiu explained the situation that his uncle said, "Have you received any news here?" ”
Duan Ziyi shook his head and shouted, "Mingde." ”
Mingde responded to the call.
"What's the news from outside?"
"No, master, do you want to summon Yang Lao?"
"No, you go down first."
"Yes."
This small thing couldn't disturb Duan Ziyi's state of mind, he took a sip of tea, and said: "There are no less than two hundred large and small nobles in Huiting City, and there are countless merchants, and the number is increasing day by day, it is impossible to control them all, and it is normal if there is no news." ”
"Now these things are taken over by Yang Lao?"
"Well, he's good at manipulating these, and he can't be idle, so I'll leave it all to him."
No wonder it's hard to see people even if they live in the same house, Xia Hanqiu no longer inquired about this, "If the Jiang family really knows these and tells Mu Qing to know, what will happen?" ”
"No, at most, it's just to let him know that there is a family like us, my details, he can't find out, the most important thing is that he is about to leave, and no matter how doubtful he is, he can only hide it, so that his rear is stable, and we will not be biased towards Mu Jing's side."
Xia Hanqiu was relieved when he heard it, he was not afraid of god-like opponents, he was afraid of pig-like teammates, this sentence is really common everywhere, there is such an unconscious one among relatives, it is uncomfortable to think about it.
"Don't frown, it's all a trivial matter, not enough to worry about."
It was such a trivial matter in Duan Ziyi's mouth, but Mu Qing appeared in Wutong Lane without warning.
Looking at Miss Xia, who was named to visit on the post, Xia Hanqiu turned his head sideways and asked, "Do you still think it's a trivial matter?" ”
"Trivial, of course." After flicking the prayer post, Duan Ziyi smiled unpredictably, "Mu Qing is a smart person and can't do stupid things." ”
Xia Hanqiu simply invited people to the main hall.
Mu Qing's first sentence pointed out Xia Hanqiu's identity, "I didn't expect that there would be a character like Miss Xia hidden in the pavilion, a disciple of Wuwei Daoist, a female disciple, if you let the world know, I am afraid that the threshold of your family will be stepped on." ”
"If the Lord of Wood City doesn't say it, no one will know." Xia Hanqiu did not deny it, and he was very angry.
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows, sat calmly, and looked at the man who allowed a woman to come forward to deal with the guests.
Should I say that this man is too inward-looking, or is he too laissez-faire?
Such a ...... Powerful man!
The unrestrained aura all told him that this man was by no means weaker than him.
Xia Hanqiu looked back and forth between the two and introduced him, "This is my husband Zheng Ziyi." ”
"Huiting City is really a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden."
Duan Ziyi's expression was indifferent, "No matter how much you hide the dragon and crouching tiger, isn't it also under the jurisdiction of the Wood City Lord?" ”
"Oh?! Zheng Gongzi means that if I have a place to get you, you will accept my recruitment? ”
"Lord Mu felt ...... Is it possible? ”
"Impossible."
"If only you knew."
Xia Hanqiu picked up the teacup, covered the corners of his mouth and didn't hold back the corners of his lips, two people who were also full of arrogance, it was really interesting to meet.
Mu Qing was choked up, but soon, he started from other aspects, "I've been thinking about what kind of person has to make Jiang Nian bow down and obey, when only someone like Zheng Gongzi has this ability." ”
Duan Ziyi neither admitted nor denied it, "I don't know what the Wood City Lord can do when he sees Zheng." ”
His attitude made Mu Qing confirm the guess in his heart, when he knew that there was such a couple in Huiting City, after he was surprised by Xia Hanqiu's identity, the first thing he thought of was the extraordinaryness of that man, and then he thought of his junior brother.
I didn't expect it to be the case!
Mu Qing's expression was condensed, and his words were no longer thorny, "I don't need to say anything, I can feel it, although I don't know why you, as a native of Liang Guo, want to help Yan Guo avoid that catastrophe, but this situation, I admit it, I don't inquire about the reason why you hid in the pavilion, even if you really say it, I can't believe it, I only hope that you can always treat Jiang Nian well, instead of abandoning him like a broom after he is useless one day, I am his senior brother, and the two of us who kowtowed together to enter the master's door, no matter what kind of person he chooses to be loyal to." I wish him well. ”
"It sounds like I'm talking about the future." Duan Ziyi also put away his sharp claws, "This is what you came here today?" ”
"Almost, everything else is incidental." Looking around the room, Mu Qing couldn't help but guess the identity of this man, anything in this room is too delicate, ordinary people have it, and it is impossible to put it everywhere like here.
It's just a place for hospitality, and even more so for other places.
The origin of Zheng Ziyi is worth scrutinizing.
There is no surname Zheng in charge of the Ten Kingdoms, but this person ......
It's just that, what do you want to do, even if he is the prince of which country, what does it matter? The more capable he is, the better it is for him, isn't it?
Since he has set up his home here, he must have reached out to help when something really happened.
Whether it is the relationship between this family and the Fu family or something else, he can expect one or two.
After waiting for a moment, Xia Hanqiu asked, "I don't know what the Mu City Lord said is incidental." ”
"I think clearly, it's most beneficial for me not to say anything and not mention anything, you are already closely related to this city, and anything I say is redundant, but the Jiang family, the two of you should be on guard, ambitious people will always do something unscrupulous."
"Thank you Lord Mu for reminding me."
Mu Qing got up, hugged his fists and left, just like when he came, he didn't have a greeting at all, and he didn't drag his feet at all.
"He's an interesting guy."
Xia Hanqiu nodded, "It's a pity that such a person dies, I hope he doesn't have the heart to live and die with Yan Guo." ”
As long as Yan Guo doesn't do anything to dig out his heart, he will really live and die with Yan Guo, otherwise he won't come to him again to make a promise after explaining the matter to Jiang Nian.
Duan Ziyi didn't say this, Qiu'er always thought too beautifully, but she didn't know that this world was never beautiful.
However, he is unwilling to break this beauty, at least not by him. (To be continued......)
