With a cool breeze that made people feel comfortable at night, gently blowing through the somewhat dull and silent Xie Mansion, Xie Daoqing kept pacing back and forth in the front yard, thinking about how to tell today's events more tactfully in front of his grandfather.

A hand patted his forehead from time to time, especially where Ye Qing gently tapped it today, Xie Daoqing always felt that there were still Ye Qing's fingerprints left, and Ye Qing's smile would always appear in his heart from time to time.

In the lighted study not far away, the sound of Xie Shenfu talking to Liuzheng was heard from time to time, and it was also accompanied by some long sighs from Xie Shenfu.

Looking blankly at the brightly lit study window, with a gradually clear greeting, Xie Daoqing saw that Liuzheng walked out of the study with his grandfather with a solemn expression, and the subordinate with a lantern next to him, under the command of Xie Shenfu, took Liuzheng to the outside of the house.

Liuzheng walked down the five steps, turned to look at Xie Shenfu, hesitated and said: "Brother Xie doesn't have to worry too much, since Dali Temple Qing Bi Zai Yu already knows about this, presumably there will be results tomorrow, once there is a result over there, I will immediately come to inform Brother Xie in person." ”

"There is Lord Laoliu, Xie is really grateful." Xie Shenfu's expression was slightly tired, and he saluted and said to Liuzheng.

Liuzheng nodded silently: "In this way, I hope that Brother Xie will make plans early, since Lin'an has made a move here, where is Shaoxing Mansion...... I'm afraid it won't be peaceful, Brother Xie must be prepared. ”

Xie Shenfu nodded thoughtfully, sighed at the thick night, and said heavily: "I sent a letter to Shaoxing overnight, telling Uncle Di to be more careful in Shaoxing, and never fall for the tricks of traitors." ”

Liuzheng nodded silently again, and then followed the people of the Xie Mansion who carried the lantern to the outside of the mansion.

Although he is the right minister today, if he is compared with Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan above the court, it is too far away.

Since he became the right minister, Liuzheng no longer chooses to stand in line as before, and he has never thought of winning over others for his own use, so now the court is full of Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan's henchmen, and he, if he wants to confront others at this time, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

But it was precisely because of the responsibility on his shoulders that he knew very well in his heart that at this time, he must not take half a step back, he could not leave an upright official like Xie Shenfu and ignore it, let alone let Han Yanxuan suppress dissidents in the court.

Things have come to this point, and Xie Shenfu also knows in his heart that the current misfortune of the Xie family is entirely because of his steady progress in the court during this period of time, which has touched the interests of some people.

Walking back to the study alone, just sat down at the table, trying to sort out his thoughts, how to write to his second son Xie Dibo, when there was a slight knock at the door of the study, and then the beautiful face of his precious granddaughter quietly poked in.

Xie Shenfu's originally cloudy face couldn't help but show a loving smile, looking at his granddaughter who slowly pushed the door in and came in, holding tea in her hand, and said with a pleasant face: "Qing'er, I haven't rested so late." ”

"Grandpa......." Xie Daoqing put the tea in his hand in the position where Xie Shenfu was handy, looked at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone prepared on the desk, and still hesitated to know how to speak.

"Still worried about your father?" Xie Shenfu's face flashed a trace of helplessness, and he continued to smile lovingly: "Qing'er is now grown up and sensible. ”

"Grandpa...... I....... ”

"Qing'er, don't worry, grandpa has just discussed with Lord Liu, and has once again entrusted the people from Dali Temple to find out your father's whereabouts, if it's fast, there will be news tomorrow." Qing'er doesn't have to worry too much, and also tells your mother that the court has its own laws and regulations, and will never disregard human life and kill the loyal and good. Xie Shenfu comforted Xie Daoqing so much, but he didn't have much confidence in his heart.

This matter is obviously aimed at him, not to mention that with Han Yanxuan's methods in the court for many years, if there is no conclusive evidence, or if they are not completely sure, they will never take Xie Qubo and Chen Fuliang so strongly.

Although the imperial court has the laws of the imperial court, this is also relative to their loyal courtiers, for powerful ministers like Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan, who control the court, the court laws are completely their weapons to eliminate dissidents, rather than the laws to control them.

"Grandpa...... Granddaughter...... My granddaughter has something to tell you. Xie Daoqing stood in front of the desk, one hand subconsciously swiping around on the table.

"Okay, you say, grandpa listens." Xie Shenfu wanted to make himself as relaxed as possible, so as not to be like the mansion of the past two days, which always gave people a feeling of lifelessness.

"Today...... Today I went out on the streets....... "Thank you

Plucked up the courage to say.

"That's good, it's better to go out for a walk than to stay at home all the time, but you still have to pay attention to safety, Lin'an City is ...... three sects and nine streams."

"Grandpa, granddaughter met today...... I met the Uncle Ye I met in Yipinlou that day...... Lord Ye. Xie Daoqing was not paying attention and almost slipped his mouth.

"Leaf ...... Lord Ye? Xie Shenfu asked with some uncertainty, how could there be such a coincidence in this big Lin'an City: "Then he didn't embarrass you, right?" Xie Shenfu finally noticed some abnormalities in his precious granddaughter, and the hand that had just picked up the brush stayed in the air and asked.

Xie Daoqing raised his head, looked at the concern in Xie Shenfu's eyes, his heart warmed, and then he shook his head and said, "Grandpa, I ...... I saw Lord Naye today...... Ask him to help me save my father's ....... ”

"You...... It's just nonsense. The brush in Xie Shenfu's hand clicked in his hand, fell on the snow-white paper, moved his lips and said, "Qing'er, this is an adult's business, how can you be so arbitrary...... ”

"But that Lord Ye agreed, he said that for the time being, he promised that his father would not worry about his life, and he wanted me to tell you." Xie Daoqing just snorted dissatisfiedly when he looked at his grandfather, and finally let go of the big stone in his heart and said, "He said, as long as I tell you this, you will understand." ”

"People will talk to you as a yellow-haired girl? And promised to keep your father safe for the time being? Xie Daoqing wanted to blame, but at this time he was a little reluctant, after all, what happened at home was because of his relationship, and now his granddaughter is worried about his father, and it is also because of the filial piety of ordinary people, and it seems inappropriate for him to be too harsh.

But in any case, he didn't quite believe what Xie Daoqing said, how could a dignified northland tyrant who was almost not controlled by the imperial court be bored enough to take care of her little girl.

Sighing heavily, looking at the frowning baby granddaughter, Xie Shenfu said: "You also saw it in Yongjin Tower that day, if that Lord Ye was willing to help, your father would not have been taken away by the Criminal Department at that time." Holding the entire military power of the Northland, such a tyrant who is almost not controlled by the imperial court, although he is sorry for the imperial court and the saint, but people have always spoken with all his words, if he is as capricious as you said, how can he convince his subordinates? Let alone...... Don't say it's you, even if your grandfather asks for it personally, people may not agree to ....... ”

"Grandpa." Xie Daoqing aggravated his tone with some dissatisfaction, when Xie Shenfu spoke, she kept thinking about Ye Qing's words and deeds in her heart, no matter how she thought about it, it didn't feel like she was lying to her. So looking at Xie Shenfu, who was interrupted by her, Xie Daoqing said with a very serious expression: "What I said is true, he really agreed, and really let me tell you, saying that you will understand after listening." ”

Xie Shenfu looked at his precious granddaughter's serious appearance, couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly, and then continued to look at Xie Daoqing with a loving smile, and said, "Okay, you saw him, and he promised you." Then tell Grandpa how you met him, and how did he promise you? Family...... Why would you agree to your little girl's plea? ”

Looking at Xie Shenfu's kind smiling face, and the words that were completely dealing with her little girl, Xie Daoqing pouted, and then told him in detail how he met Ye Qing, where he went, and who he saw and heard.

At first, Xie Shenfu still listened with the intention of coaxing Xie Daoqing, and as the little girl said more and more realistically, just like the real thing, Xie Shenfu's expression also changed slightly and became more and more solemn, when he said that in the teahouse, when he saw Zheng Qingzhi, the head of the household, and his son Zheng Shichang, Xie Shenfu was already completely convinced.

Not because of anything else, but because since Zheng Qingzhi came to their house for his son to propose marriage, Xie Daoqing has never been to that teahouse again, for fear of being entangled by that Zheng Shichang again.

So today, Xie Daoqing said that she went to the Hongchu Teahouse, and also met Zheng Qingzhi, the head of the household, and even after meeting Shi Miyuan, Xie Shenfu's expression was full of disbelief and shock.

This little girl really didn't know how to provoke Ye Qing, and she also saw Shi Miyuan! Especially from the description of Shi Miyuan's appearance, Xie Shenfu is also more sure that today's little girl is ...... It's really a disaster!

Finally, after listening to his precious granddaughter, learning Ye Qing's tone and telling himself about it, he would understand, Xie Shenfu leaned back in the chair weakly, and then sighed heavily, his expression became solemn and complicated.

"Did he say where your father is being held now?" Xie Shenfu was silent for a while before asking Xie Daoqing.

He didn't say it, but he promised his granddaughter that his father would not worry about his life for the time being. At first, my granddaughter thought he had promised me to help save my father, but then he quibbled and said never

didn't say it, he just promised to ensure that his father was safe for the time being, and if he dared to lie to his granddaughter, his granddaughter would definitely ask him to understand. In Xie Daoqing's words, it didn't seem like he was dealing with a powerful minister who even the emperor was afraid of, how do you look at that tone...... It's like someone her age is talking.

Xie Shenfu had mixed feelings in his heart for a while, although he had never lived the belly of a gentleman with the heart of Xiaoxin, but this matter was simply too unbelievable, he didn't understand why Ye Qing would agree to a little girl's request! What is his purpose?

"He's really because ...... Because I told you not to cry, I promised you as a condition? Xie Shenfu asked in disbelief.

Xie Daoqing nodded seriously and firmly, and then shook his head again: "Because I also told him, if he doesn't help, I will pester him, and I will follow him wherever he goes, and then ...... Then he promised his granddaughter. ”

Speaking of this, Xie Daoqing's face was slightly red in the candlelight, and he unconsciously remembered the scene when Ye Qing smiled and flicked her forehead.

Xie Shenfu's attention was all attracted by Ye Qing's promise, and he didn't notice the strange appearance of his precious granddaughter's sudden blushing, naturally, he didn't understand why his granddaughter gently stroked her forehead with one hand, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.

"So it seems...... He obviously knows your father's whereabouts now, but ....... Xie Shenfu sighed again, Ye Qing asked Xie Daoqing to convey the words to him, obviously conveying a kind of goodwill, and whether this kindness was true goodwill or a real conspiracy, he couldn't determine for a while.

But what is certain is that Ye Qing does now know where Xie Qubo and Chen Fuliang are being held, and it is precisely based on this that Ye Qing will convey this message to himself through his granddaughter, and it is also difficult for him to judge whether to coerce or coerce.

"Grandpa...... You mean...... Does he know where my father is being held now? Xie Daoqing frowned, gritted his teeth and asked, and then a feeling instantly rose in his heart, as if he had been deceived by his uncle again.

Xie Shenfu looked at Xie Daoqing, who was a little angry for some reason, nodded with a wry smile, and then said: "Silly girl, you don't want to think about it, if he really promised you to ensure that your father is safe for the time being, if even where your father is imprisoned, then how can he guarantee it?" ”

"Yes, unless he knows that his father is being held...... He knows where his father is being held, doesn't he? Xie Daoqing instantly widened his impressive eyes, and suddenly realized.

"That's nature, if he doesn't know, how can he guarantee it." Xie Shenfu continued to confirm.

"He lied to me again! I'm going to go to him tomorrow and ask him to release my father and Uncle Chen! Hum! This big liar turned out to be ....... ”

"Qing'er, don't be rude." Xie Shenfu was taken aback by Xie Daoqing's reaction, this was like the attitude of a little girl begging for someone, and the little girl's tone, expression, and attitude towards Ye Qing made him feel a little apprehensive in his heart.

But after thinking about it, every one of Ye Qing's wives is said to be a rare beauty, and even Princess Xin has become his wife. So...... How could he beat this little girl's idea, and at this critical moment in Lin'an, he didn't quite believe that Ye Qing would have any thoughts about a seventeen-year-old girl.

But looking at the way his baby granddaughter looked when she talked about Ye Qing, and thinking that Ye Qing had deceived her, she immediately went to Ye Qing to ask for a clear look of Xingshi, he had to be a little worried, would his baby granddaughter ...... In front of Ye Qing, don't treat yourself as an outsider too much?

Xie Shenfu didn't even dare to continue thinking about why his precious granddaughter had such an attitude towards Ye Qing.

Seeing that Xie Daoqing didn't take Ye Qing seriously at all, thinking that he could see it if he wanted to, Xie Shenfu's heart was lifted again, and now he ...... I'm afraid that no matter what, I will have to visit Ye Qing in person.

Whether it is for the sake of his eldest son or his precious granddaughter, it is unlikely that he will still maintain the clear and clear trend between himself and Ye Qing.

But how can I meet Ye Qing? Judging from the situation that I have no intersection with others, I am afraid that people will not be willing to see me, right? And in today's Lin'an situation, in what capacity and in what way should I meet him, and will he give others the opportunity to attack him again because of this?

The worries in his heart made Xie Shenfu's eyes involuntarily shift to Xie Daoqing's body: The bell must be tied to the bell, or maybe ...... If you want to ask to see Ye Qing, you have to let your precious granddaughter, who no one takes her seriously, come forward.

(PS: Do you still have a monthly pass and a recommended ticket that are about to expire?) Not because it's almost the end of the month, but ...... I might break it tomorrow, hahahaha. ）
