Brocade Thread Chapter XXIV

He Luo seemed to have made up his mind, and looked at Wen Zhili's eyes very seriously: "Master, I must go to Jinweaving City." But this hairpin is too valuable for me to take with me. If something happens to this hairpin, I'll die of distress. Ye will keep it for me first, and then return it to me when I come back. I'll tell you my answer then. ”

Wen Zhili glanced at the hairpin in his hand and said to He Luo: "I said, don't let me wear it for you for the third time." ”

"No, I didn't mean to return it to the master. I'm just asking my grandfather to keep it for me, and I'll put it on myself next time. He Luo was afraid that he would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained to him.

Wen Zhili heard her say this, glanced at the portrait of his mother, and there was a smile between his eyebrows. He put the hairpin into his sleeve, looked at He Luo and said, "Bring the second master back safely, don't make trouble." ”

"Master, do you agree?" He Luo was a little excited.

"I have a few that you won't let me remember. It is not allowed to be reckless, it is not allowed to investigate the relationship between Jiang Boyuan and the Hu clan, it is not allowed to help Jian You investigate the case, it is not allowed to track down the money, and it is not allowed to get involved with General Chu. Wen Zhili looked at He Luo with a calm expression, "Do you understand?" ”

"Master, I understand everything else, but why don't you let me track down that batch of money? If I find out what's going on, won't I be able to help you clear your name? He Luo felt a little strange in his heart.

"You don't have to worry about it, I have my own way to do these things." Wen Zhili walked out after speaking, and seeing that He Luo hadn't come out yet, he turned around and said, "How long are you going to stay inside?" ”

He Luo was still looking around the room, and only reacted when she heard Wen Zhili call her, and hurriedly walked out. Wen Zhili saw her come out, walked over and closed the door.

"Master, what kind of place is this?" He Luo looked at Wen Zhili and asked.

"My mother's room." Wen Zhili's voice was soft.

"But shouldn't the lord and the lady live together? The courtyard before the old man was obviously near the old lady's courtyard. He Luo was a little puzzled.

"My mother is a concubine." Wen Zhili's tone was calm, but He Luo, who knew the news, was startled.

"How is that possible? I've been in Wen Mansion for six years, and I've never heard that my lord has other wives. ”

"My dad didn't have a wife." After Wen Zhili finished speaking, he stopped and looked at He Luo, "My mother is not the daughter of a high-ranking family, and her status is low. Do you think grandmother will let her be the head of the Wen family? ”

"Old lady, this is inevitably too ......" He Luo said halfway, Wen Zhili glanced at her, she hurriedly shut up, her eyes looked around, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're too bold." Wen Zhili sighed and continued to walk forward.

followed Wen Zhili to the study, He Luo made tea for him and stood on the side waiting for his instructions. Wen Zhili was sorting out something, and seeing that she hadn't moved for a long time, he raised his eyes to look at her and said, "What are you doing here?" Aren't you going to Nishiki tomorrow? Still not going to pack your things? ”

"Master, isn't this in a hurry?" He Luo looked at him with a smile, in fact, she was selfish in her heart and wanted to stay by his side for a while.

"You don't want to go?" Wen Zhili raised an eyebrow at her.

"Go, of course!" He Luo's eyes were firm, "It's just that there is one more thing I want to explain to my master." ”

"Say." Wen Zhili's hand did not stop.

"That is, I suspect that the Liu family and the Yun family have a lot of relationship." He Luo's voice was very soft, and as he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Wen Zhili.

Wen Zhili frowned when he heard about the Yun family. took the thing in He Luo's hand, unfolded it, and seemed to be a little surprised. "This Yunliu family is really close to each other, how did you get this thing?"

"This was discovered by my subordinates in Huzhou Junzhu Academy, when Master Jian took me to a courtyard, where there was a women's boudoir, and I found this contract on the bottom mezzanine of the jewelry box." He Luo told the truth.

"You can get this kind of thing from under Jian You's nose, you really have some ability." Wen Zhili smiled, and then put the contract book at the bottom of the drawer.

"Master, isn't this thing very valuable?" He Luo winked at him.

"It's really valuable." Wen Zhili lowered his eyes and looked at the stack of materials in his hand, "Do you know how the Yun family had an accident back then?" ”

"How could I possibly know how old I was then." He Luo looked at Wen Zhili curiously.

"The Yun family was also very prosperous back then, and the first emperor once praised Yun Taifu for having the style of a sage, having both ability and political integrity, and being a capable minister who ruled the world. That's why I asked Mrs. Yun to be a teacher for the prince. You should know that there are always people who can't get used to him. The prince disliked Yun Taifu because Yun Taifu was too strict, and became closer to his other teacher, Jiang Shaofu, who is now Jiang Taifu. I don't know very well what the relationship between the Yun family and the Liu family is, but Liu Mu did sit in the position of the right minister because he overthrew the Yun family. And Young Master Jiang also became the crown prince and the prince. Wen Zhili said this and took a sip of tea.

He Luo listened with relish, and his eyes kept looking at him. Wen Zhili continued: "You may not think that my father and they are also in the same camp. It was because of this incident that the first emperor authorized the Wen family and the Liu family to have their own armies to protect the saints. At that time, the envoy of the Tai Hospital was punished for helping Yun Taifu speak, and Liu Mu felt that the envoy was a threat and was ready to kill him. My father couldn't bear it, so he saved the wife and children of the envoy. It was also because of this incident that my father and Liu Mu completely broke up, which led to the later Wenliu dispute. ”

"Master, then the master still has a little conscience." He Luo analyzed carefully.

"Conscience? He also has that kind of thing? The official department is still the book, responsible for supervising the hundred officials. It is our duty to protect the loyal and punish the traitors. Guess what he did in the end? He gave Yunhe one last push and handed in a so-called investigation result with his own hands. Wen Zhili smiled a little sarcastically.

"As for why he saved people, it was because the hospital envoy saved the lives of both of them when my mother had a difficult birth. This is what he owes and must be repaid. Wen Zhili looked at He Luo after speaking, "You only need to remember one thing, as long as you stand on top of this court, you shouldn't have compassion, we are all stepping on others to climb up." ”
