Chapter 243: High School Champion
"Bai Zhi, have you gained anything from going out for so long?" Jinsu asked.
"Well," Bai Zhi nodded and said softly, "The spies replied that there was still no news of the young master outside the city. However, in the city, there is a secret pile that says there is a dirty job that wants us to do. ”
"What about the spies on the Eighth Highness's side?"
"Huh?" Xu didn't expect Jinsu to be indifferent to this, Bai Zhi was a little stunned, but quickly reacted, "Oh, the people from His Royal Highness's side didn't go to the appointment on time, and I waited for a stick of incense, so I came back late." ”
Staring at the ball of paper on the table, Jin Su nodded meaningfully, "I see!" ”
Bai Zhi instantly comprehended and asked, "Miss is suspicious, did they send this news?" ”
"What do you think?" Jin Su asked rhetorically.
"Well," Bai Zhi thought for a moment before she said, "It should be!" ”
"Since they have news of the purge, then you will go and inform Qingfeng tomorrow and ask him not to look for it." Jinsu commanded.
"Good. Do ---- need to bring the young master back? Bai Zhi asked.
"No, you don't! Let him be. ”
After speaking, Jin Su opened the lampshade, burned the paper ball, caught a glimpse of Bai Zhi's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and asked, "What's wrong?" Say whatever you want. ”
"Miss doesn't want to know, who is looking for us to take over the dirty work?" Bai Zhi said in a mysterious way.
Jin Su raised his eyes, glanced at her, and asked, "Tell me, who made you so interested, you are not afraid of startling the snake!" ”
Bai Qi also came over curiously and stared at Bai Zhi.
"It's the current Princess Oak, Princess Minmin of Ulamuri!"
"What? It's her? Is she looking for a killer? Who is she going to kill? Bai Qi chattered.
"Hmph~" Jin Su smiled coldly and replied, "Okay, tell Qingfeng that this order is accepted!" I'll find a chance to discuss the details with him! ”
"Gotcha!" Bai Zhi replied with a smile.
"What's the catch? The young lady doesn't ask, who does she want to kill? Doesn't that mean we shouldn't act rashly now? Bai Qi worried.
Bai Zhi shook her head helplessly, nodded Bai Qi's forehead, and scolded, "Please, can you use your brain more?" ”
"Huh?"
"Think about it, who does Princess Min Min hate the most, and who does she want to die the most?" Bai Zhi asked.
Bai Qian thought about it, frowned, and didn't seem to have a clue.
Jin Su got up and added, "In Kyoto City, who has a grudge against her?" ”
Bai Qi suddenly realized, covered her mouth, looked at Jinsu in horror, and sighed, "It can't be us!?" ”
Jin Su and Bai Zhi shrugged their shoulders and pursed their lips and smiled, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.
Bai Qi immediately laughed.
The silver bell-like laughter seemed to be magical, so that he couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth when he was leaning on the trunk of the tree. Not only that, but even the sound of Xiao this night is not as resentful as in the past.
On the second day of the unveiling of the imperial list, Mama Qi came over early in the morning to explain, so that Jinsu and everyone in the Hanlian courtyard were not allowed to go out if they had nothing to do.
Up and down the Prime Minister's Mansion, there was a tense and depressing atmosphere. Because everyone knows that An Suqing failed to meet the saint and the prime minister on time, he doesn't know what kind of disaster he will encounter.
However, this kind of atmosphere does not exist in the Rosewood Courtyard and the Agarwood Temple, everything is as usual, as if the sky has nothing to do with them.
In the afternoon, someone suddenly came to Hanlian Courtyard to spread the word, saying that Hui Guiren had returned to his house and asked Jinsu to greet him.
At that time, Bai Qian played against herself, and when she heard the news, she immediately wondered, "What is she doing when she comes back at this time?" ”
Jin Su put down the book in his hand, got up and said, "Let's go, won't you know if you go and see?" With that, the three of them went to the front hall together.
Odd! In the morning, these maids and mothers-in-law were still lifeless, and they didn't dare to gasp. Could it be that An Suqing is back?!
Jinsu secretly guessed.
Until she stepped into the front hall and saw An Xiayu and An Heqing with a spring breeze, as well as the gold, silver and jewelry rewarded by the courtyard, she did not doubt the conjecture just now.
"Hui Guiren ~ Father ~" Jin Su saluted successively, behaved decently, and couldn't find any fault.
"Now that you have returned home, you are a family, why does the eldest sister need so many courtesies?" An Xiayu smiled and helped her up.
An Heqing stepped forward and instructed amiably, "Su'er, you are here to talk to the nobles, and let the guest room be cleaned up for your father." ”
"No, no, no," An Xiayu said with a wave of his hand.
An Heqing's heart sank, and he said with an embarrassed face, "I know that your nobles don't like guest rooms, but now that Ya'er has returned to her home to raise her baby and has lived in the Agarwood Courtyard, it is not good for her to move out again." ”
"No, my father misunderstood," An Xiayu said softly, "I went back to the house this time, just to send these rewards for the emperor, so after going to say hello to my grandmother and aunt in a while, I will go back to the palace." ”
"That's right," An Heqing said with a look of pity.
"Well, people are in the harem, and they can't help themselves!" An Xiayu said helplessly, "I can only wait for the return of the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty, and I will go back to the house to stay for a few more days!" ”
"Huh?" Jin Su was puzzled.
Ancestor worship? What to worship ancestors? So did An Suqing really return to his hometown to worship his ancestors? Or is this just a perfunctory statement that An Heqing came up with?
"Ahem!" An Heqing coughed twice at the right time, interrupting Jinsu's thoughts.
"Father, what's wrong?" An Xiayu said with concern.
An Heqing gave Jin Su a look with a weak heart, then cleared his throat and said, "It's okay, it's okay!" ”
"Even if the affairs of the government are important, my father must take care of his body more! In the past, the honor and disgrace of the An family were all on the shoulders of my father, and we sisters, although we had a heart, we didn't know where to start. Now it's different, I am in the palace, and the court is purged, and I can more or less share some of it for my father. ”
"Yes," An Heqing was a little moved, pulled up An Xiayu and patted it, and said lovingly, "You can think like this, I am really happy for my father!" ”
Turning his head and glancing at Jin Su meaningfully, he continued, "You are all members of the An family, one is prosperous, and the other is lost, no matter when, you must help each other and take care of the overall situation!" ”
"Yes, Father!" Jin Su and An Xia Yu responded in unison.
An Heqing hinted like this, Jin Su was already convinced in his heart that An Suqing returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, just to hide people's eyes and ears. And let her focus on the overall situation, just because she didn't want An Xiayu to know the truth of this matter?
That's it, more is better than less, she doesn't bother to chew this tongue!
"Father, then my eldest sister and I will go to see my grandmother first, it just so happened that a few days ago, the queen gave me a ginseng and sent it to my grandmother to raise her body!" Anxia Yudao.
"Okay, let's go."
So, Jin Su went to Yunxiang Courtyard with An Xiayu. Time was limited, and the old lady was not in good health, so they didn't stay long, just a few words of greeting, and left.
