723: Adversary
"If Xu Yihan is really Zong Xuanyi's child, then Shen Congqian must be a person from the Xiangfu. Even if she is not a fine work of the Prime Minister's house, she must have an indissoluble bond with the Xiangguo. ”
Ji Hongye's words woke up Nalan Jinxiu. She began to recall what Shen Congqian had done, from the beginning to the end, it was nothing more than to sabotage her marriage with her third brother.
At the beginning, everyone thought that Zhenbei Wangfu was a piece of fat, and there were many people who wanted to marry her, hoping to get the support of Zhenbei Wangfu. These people are all vying for power, and Zong Xuanyi is indeed among them.
He had a reason to do this, and at that time, the Zhenbei Royal Mansion was still in its heyday, and it was definitely not something that ordinary ministers could do to arrange Shen Congqian in. Thinking about it this way, there is really only Zong Xuanyi.
He ...... He and Shen Congqian ......"
Nalan Jinxiu was a little stumbling when she spoke, and her face became very bad. She has always hated Concubine Liu, because she hurt her in the first place, and because he thinks that Concubine Liu and Zong Xuanyi have long been deeply in love.
It is precisely for this reason that Zong Xuanyi will make a move on her. Of course, Zong Xuanyi himself is a power strategist, and he also takes a fancy to the power of Nalan Mansion.
But in the end, he had already let the Taifu Mansion fall and replaced it himself. The poisoning made her unable to have children and drove her to a dead end, if it wasn't for Concubine Liu, then what other reasons would there be?
Ji Hongye looked at her pale, and knew that she must be thinking about Zong Xuanyi. He still couldn't be sure, what kind of feelings she had for Zong Xuanyi?
Love is definitely gone, but what about hate? Hate him for being a murderer, hate him for making her lose everything, or hate out of love?
Ji Hongye found that he didn't dare to think about it, but whenever he thought that she had loved someone else, or that love had turned into something else, he would feel very jealous.
Jealousy should not have been in him, because it would blindfold him. So, he decided not to think about it anymore.
"Will Xu Yihan have any disagreement with the palace?"
can't blame Ji Hongye for speculating about a child like this, but Zong Xuanyi is a person who is yin and domineering, and he never pays attention to the rules when doing things, and he always only looks at his own preferences.
It is possible that in order to smash the Zhenbei Wangfu, or to let the Zhenbei Wangfu be used by him, he deliberately buried such a person in the mansion.
However, he has been raised in Zhenbei Wangfu since birth, and it is very likely that he will not be controlled by him when he grows up. But if it is his son, then it is a different matter, after all, this bloodline will definitely make Xu Yihan choose to help his father.
Nalan Jinxiu and Ji Hongye thought of the same place. She felt more and more that it was too dangerous for Xu Yihan to stay in the palace, especially Xu Liange's dependence on him and his wholehearted trust. If Xu Yihan is her enemy, then Xu Liange will definitely not have the ability to fight back.
"No, I'm going to tell my brother about this!" Nalan Jinxiu couldn't wait for a moment, she felt that it was too dangerous.
"Don't worry, after all, it's all our speculation, and we haven't verified it yet. ”
"That's right. Nalan Jinxiu calmed down and began to seek a solution. If you want to determine Xu Yihan's identity, you must go to Shen Congqian.
She could feel the changes in Shen Congqi, even if it used to be a fine work, but now it is not. Her once hard-hearted heart could be touched, and now she should be able to tell her the truth.
"Shen Congqian has already gone to the temple, she has not returned to the palace, and if she wants to ask for a certificate, she can only go to her. ”
Ji Hongye regretted that she had just told her this, she didn't seem to be able to wait for a moment, and wanted to confirm Xu Yihan's identity in time.
But after all, she had just given birth, and she couldn't go out. If he went to see Shen Congqian on her behalf, it really couldn't be justified, after all, he and Shen Congqian shouldn't have anything to do with each other, but should avoid suspicion.
"Let's take a break from this matter. Ji Hongye tried to persuade Nalan Jinxiu: "If all this is planned by Zong Xuanyi, then this plan is very long, and it must require Xu Yihan to grow up and be able to do it when he is in charge of the Zhenbei Palace, so don't be too anxious." ”
Nalan Jinxiu felt that what he said made sense, so he was not so urgent. She thought of Xu Yihan again, he was still young after all, if he really had a purpose to stay in the palace here, then would he be too good at disguise?
She saw how Xu Liange looked at Xu Yihan and how her brother cherished her younger brother.
If Xu Yihan really wanted to hurt the Zhenbei Palace, then she wouldn't mind being the executioner and sending him away in person. Of course, all this has to be hidden from my brother and Xu Liange.
Ji Hongye couldn't see where she had already moved to kill. After going through so many things, Ah Jin's personality has completely changed, and she likes to solve problems in the most simple and straightforward way.
"These are all speculations on our part, so don't think too much about it just yet. ”
Nalan Jinxiu didn't listen to his words, and she began to worry again. Since she has already moved her murderous intent, Shen Congqian should also be able to feel that she is such a keen person, in order to protect her son, she will definitely not tell the truth.
"Third brother, don't ask Shen Congqian. If you ask someone to check this matter, you must know the result as soon as possible. ”
Ji Hongye sighed: "The matter involves the Prime Minister's Mansion, which was originally a forbidden place for my forces, and I don't think it's easy to find out the truth." ”
Nalan Jinxiu's eyes became deeper, and she said coldly: "Then let's start with Xu Yihan, it is always much better to break through from him than from Shen Congqian's side." ”
Ji Honghuan frowned: "He is still a child after all." ”
"You can't think of him too simply, he is already twelve years old, and he will be a person who can marry in two years. Besides, he was originally a precocious person, and the rights and wrongs should be clear in his heart. ”
"I'll leave this matter to me. ”
Nalan Jinxiu was naturally relieved of Ji Hongye, starting from Xu Yihan, the only thing she was worried about was Xu Liange. That girl always follows Xu Yihan inch by inch, and she is very ghostly, if she notices this thing, she will definitely make trouble.
My brother loves her so much, and he is reluctant to make it difficult for her, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will be impossible to ask anything from Xu Yihan's mouth.
"But I can still do it just by asking a question from a child's mouth. ”
Nalan Jinxiu smiled: "Of course I don't doubt your ability, it's just that you don't know Xu Yihan very well." Compared to him, I feel like when I was his age, I was indistinguishable from an idiot. ”
I agree. Ji Hongye felt that after they talked about this topic, the atmosphere became very tense for a while, so he decided to say something lighthearted.
Nalan Jinxiu glanced at him lightly, and said slowly: "I wonder if the third brother is as old as him, is it difficult to get along with?"
"I don't quite understand what Madame means by being difficult to get along with?"
"That is to say, are you also so smart and cunning, and you have a seven-trick exquisite heart, no matter how you guess, you can't guess it. ”
"That's probably the case. ”
"Since you can do it, then Xu Yihan must be able to do it too. Nalan Jinxiu looked at Ji Hongye and suddenly smiled: "You really have to ask this, after all, the little devil must have the old devil to come to the rescue." ”
Seeing that she was no longer worried, Ji Hongye felt a little relieved, smiled and said, "Who do you say is old?"
"I was wrong, it's not the old devil, it's the big devil. Nalan Jinxiu hurriedly changed his words.
"There are demons on the left and right, and there is no difference. ”
"But didn't you care about the old man just now? Why did you become a demon again in a blink of an eye? Your routine became so fast, I couldn't keep up for a while. ”
Ji Hongye didn't speak again. He really has half a day of leisure now, and he still has time to talk to his wife here. Thinking of the busy day and night a while ago, he felt that the difference was a little big.
At this time, it was already daylight, and light footsteps began to appear outside the door, thinking that the people in the courtyard had all gotten up.
Ji Hongye had never gotten up so late, he got up and dressed, and said to Nalan Jinxiu: "Do you want to lie down for a while?"
Nalan Jinxiu also sat up and straightened his somewhat messy hair. She didn't sleep very honestly, so the next morning was always described as a little embarrassed.
Ji Hongye usually seems to be a chronic child, but he is actually very efficient. He quickly put on his robe, and then began to help Nalan Jinxiu clean up.
"With you, it seems that you don't need a maid. Nalan Jinxiu asked him to help him put on his coat and said with a smile.
"Hmm. Ji Hongye didn't seem to think there was anything wrong, and cleaned her up in an orderly manner.
The maid outside the door heard the sound of talking in the house, and was about to push the door in, but then thought that the husband of the county lord was still in the house.
Yesterday, they had already inquired, and Ji Shoufu was notoriously bad for women, so they didn't dare to rush in, for fear of upsetting the master. He only asked in a low voice outside the door, "Do you want to get up?"
"Come in and wait for me to wash up. Nalan Jinxiu said.
The maids soon came in, some with basins, some with fragrant pancreas, and the maids were not surprised to see that Nalan Jinxiu was already dressed neatly. She likes to do it herself, and only on rare occasions does she have them serve and dress.
Ji Hongye tested the temperature of the washing water with his hand, and felt that it was just right, so he said to the maids: "Go and pass the meal." ”
The way he looked was asking them all to quit. The maids were confused, they hadn't waited for the county lord to wash up, why did they have to go out now?
Ji Hongye said very little in front of his subordinates, and the people who usually served him knew what he was doing as long as he looked at him.
Now these in front of me, no matter how you look at it, they are not smart. He had to patiently explain: "It's enough to have me here, you go and do your own thing." ”
Only then did the maids get a clear order and retreated one after another. It's just that I was wondering in my heart, what did Ji Shoufu mean by what he just said, why didn't they seem to understand?
