Chapter 369: Suspicion
The situation has developed beyond everyone's expectations.
No one guessed that Wan Jidao still had a chance to return alive from Dali Temple, and still be his Dingguo Gong, and still be raised in Wanfu with good food and drink. Xie Shuning didn't expect things to turn out like this. Now that Yan Huai has already started, how can he let Wan Jidao still have a chance to resurrect?
If Wan Jidao still has the ability to exonerate himself, he will not be imprisoned without a way that day.
Mrs. Wan was seriously ill and stayed in the Yan family to recuperate, and she couldn't even get out of the door. Mrs. Wan was walking around diligently outside, trying to find a way to exonerate her husband, at least to save her life. However, the walls are down, everyone is pushing, the trees are falling and scattered, and how many people are willing to lend a hand when the disaster is coming?
Even if Mrs. Wan broke her leg and said that she was dry, it would always be in vain.
The world is hot and cold, and it is only clearly visible when the days are difficult. She went back and forth for many days, but there was no way at all, and she could only wash her face with tears every day. Seeing that more than 10,000 were about to be planted, the salted fish suddenly turned over and caught everyone off guard.
Xie Shuning clutched the note tightly, only to feel that something was quite wrong.
She turned her head and asked Turan, "Did Grandpa Guo mention when he will return?" ”
Turan shook his head and replied: "I only said that it is not a day, about ten days and half a month, but I didn't say a specific date." ”
In this way, Yan Huai didn't even reveal the date of Yan Xian's return, did he not know it at all, or did he deliberately hide it from the beginning? Xie Shuning couldn't guess his mind for a while, and this was a step he had been preparing to take on the chessboard. Or did someone accidentally stealthily eat the chess pieces?
She suddenly became a little worried, but worried, she couldn't help but sneer secretly. Laugh at yourself for being nosy.
She turned around and sat down, and said to Turan: "Sister Xian'er went to Surabaya, shouldn't you go over today?" ”
Before Yan Huai left, he personally led Jixiang and a group of people to escort Yan Xian over, but they were all men, and it was inconvenient to act. At the same time, although the place on the edge of the Surabaya River is secluded, it is not as unbreakable as the Chengguo Mansion, so Yan Xian has only a dumb woman around to take care of it. I'm afraid it's not enough. Fortunately, there is still Turan, who can take care of Yanxian for a while.
"Yes, the slave should leave in a moment." Turan eats the last bite of the bean paste bun. Nodding in response.
It takes half a day to get to Surabaya here, and she is now on the way, just in time for the sun to set. Also in time for dinner.
Xie Shuning glanced sideways out of the window a few times. The sky was blue and the clouds were thin, but the position of the sun was different from earlier. She counted the hours in her heart, and said to Turan, "Then I won't keep you more, and it's better to leave early." Sister Xian'er doesn't usually see people, but in fact, she is a talkative and noisy person, so you can talk to her more if you have nothing to do. But she's not in good shape, and you have to be careful. ”
She whispered. Turan listened and bowed his head.
In a few days, Xie Shuning and his entourage will go south. Turan was very reluctant, and when he was about to get up and leave, he couldn't help but hug Zhuo's mother and cry, tears crackling down.
Zhuo's mother persuaded her: "What are you crying for, when you have the opportunity, you will go south to visit us, you are not afraid of the long distance, you can ride a horse, you can go a lot faster." ”
But having said that, no one knows when we will see each other in the future.
Turan replied, but more and more tears rolled down his eyes.
By the time Xie Shuning personally sent her out, her eyes, which were deeper than those of the Central Plains, were also red and swollen from crying, like two walnuts.
She reluctantly waved goodbye to Xie Shuning, turned over on the horse, and then went outside the northern city.
Xie Shuning watched her go away, and only then did she turn around and go back to the room until the horse's back disappeared. The note was still crumpled in her hand, like it had just been fished out of a pickle jar, sweaty. She suddenly spoke casually, but a thin layer of sweat appeared in her palms.
There are thousands of things, and it really doesn't make sense.
By the time she arrived, she had frowned and turned over and over several times, but she was still confused and couldn't guess the trick.
She poured herself a cup of tea and drank it slowly. Su Bai's fingers gently rubbed the body of the cup, and she suddenly called Xiao Qi in and asked him to find the winter solstice.
Soon, the winter solstice came to see her.
She put down the tea in her hand and ordered in a deep voice: "Let people go outside and ask around, what are the rumors about the unjust case of Dingguo Gong." ”
A few years ago, when she had a large sum of money in her hand, she began to prepare this net. She is an ordinary woman who often lives in the depths of the boudoir, and if she wants to know the direction of the wind outside as quickly as possible, she must need a group of her own people. A long time ago, she had thought that the people in the inner house, coming and going, it was not difficult to choose, but it was the people in the outer courtyard who were difficult.
So she saved the winter solstice, and then the winter solstice started to recruit people for her.
Today, that news network has been spread very widely.
It's a pity that her hand can't reach out to the palace, and it is difficult to go deep into the court.
These shortcomings are unavoidable.
Therefore, she only instructed Dong Solstice to send people to inquire about the rumors about tens of thousands of unjust cases, but she did not try to find out how to inquire into the court.
She carefully mentioned a few things that needed more attention, and then she shut up.
The winter solstice responded one by one, took the order and retreated, and replaced Xiao Qi in.
Xiao Qi said respectfully: "Miss, the Minister of India has sent a message." ”
She looked over with a straight face, sat on the Taishi chair solemnly, and asked, "What do you say?" ”
"Yin Gong, don't forget to mention the kitchen, don't put onions, ginger, garlic, and leeks into the dishes......" Xiao Qi lowered his eyes, and spit out a bunch of words from his mouth like pouring beans.
Xie Shuning heard the blue muscles on his forehead, and struggled to ask: "I ate dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve that year, and the filling was also filled with green onions, and Yin Gong didn't eat a big bowl as usual?" ”
Xiao Qi raised his head, blinked his eyes, and said solemnly: "Finely cut, Yin Gong is still willing to eat." ”
"......" Xie Shuning choked. Thinking that this was probably the last meal, besides, her mother was going to take care of it herself, and she had instructed her to ask Wang Ren's opinion carefully. Then you have to tell the truth. She nodded to indicate that she already knew, and sent Xiao Qi down, and she sat for a while but felt that she couldn't sit still, so she got up and went to Song's place.
When she saw her mother, she first stepped forward to stick to her and talked, and then talked about Wang Ren's provocative matter.
Song was stunned after hearing this, but said: "No wonder Yin Gong looks thin." ”
"......" Xie Shuning turned his face away. I can't answer.
Song pulled her to carefully discuss the dishes needed on the table.
By the time the table was finally set, the sky outside the house had already taken on a dim yellow color. It's nearly dusk.
Mother and daughter talked, oblivious to the fact that time was passing by in a hurry.
At the time of the lantern, the people sent out by the winter solstice gradually returned. Xie Shuning had dinner and carefully read the news she received. There's nothing out of the ordinary. Most of them say that they don't know how to be a person, and they are not popular in the DPRK, which makes people slander. Some people guessed that there was another black hand behind those imperial histories, but they didn't dare to say more, only a few faint sounds.
Xie Shuning stared at this for a few more moments, but she couldn't think of anyone else besides Yan Huai if the so-called black hand existed.
In her previous life, she was just a little Mrs. Hou. The attention to the court is also very limited, and now it has undergone a change of dynasty. Personnel changes, even less are known.
Could it be Wang Ren?
As soon as the thought came to her, her complexion changed suddenly under the lamp.
That's right!
Who else could it be but him?
She got up and put the paper in her hand to the lamp. The narrow tongue of fire licked the paper full of ink, and in an instant, the paper burned black. In the midst of the smoke, Xie Shuning's face was also ugly.
Wang Ren does things without rules, only likes and dislikes, and even sometimes just a rise.
If he makes a move, it must not be because he was bought by anyone, and it is certainly not for the sake of ten thousand.
He has never liked Yan Huai, and if he can block Yan Huai, he will definitely not miss this opportunity. Therefore, he must be happy to save Wan Jidao, change the situation, and kill Yan Huai by surprise.
In thought, the tongue of fire licked her fingertips.
She let out a low sigh and hurriedly let go of her hand, tossing the remaining piece of paper on the empty low table. In the blink of an eye, only a few stars of ash remained on the blackened low table.
That night, Xie Shuning tossed and turned and didn't sleep peacefully.
Before it was dark, she got up on her own and sent someone to Surabaya for questioning.
If it was really Wang Ren, then Yan Huai took an errand at this juncture and traveled away, no matter how you think about it, it doesn't seem like a good thing.
Back and forth, get up in the morning, and return in the afternoon.
When the sun was scorching and the flowers and trees were scorching, the people sent to Surabaya came back, but they couldn't bring back the news that Xie Shuning wanted to know.
Yan Xian didn't know, and the auspicious couple didn't know either.
Yan Huai only said that he wanted to run an errand, but he never mentioned the location, second, he did not mention the specific date of return, and third, he did not say what kind of errand.
She frowned and lifted the curtain and stood for a moment in the dazzling sunlight, and in an instant, she moved her mind to send someone to the Jinyi Guard to find out what errand Yan Huai had received.
But after thinking about it, the footsteps she had already leaned out couldn't help but retract.
Maybe she's just thinking too much......
There was a slight hint of alcohol between the lips and teeth, but it inexplicably emerged at this moment.
She hesitated, gritted her teeth and turned around, telling the story to continue.
However, today's Jinyiwei is not the Jinyiwei of the past, and it is not easy to find out the news easily.
She carefully deployed, only to receive another piece of news the next day.
-- Yan Huai, the Duke of Chengguo, died in the early summer of this year.
When she was about to leave for the south in less than five days, the young man who had stood under the porch late at night and smiled softly at her became an obituary. (To be continued......)
