Chapter 65: Suspicion
Xuan Shijing walked in the garden and unexpectedly met Li Shiqing, who should now be called Xuan Shiqing.
"Cousin." Xuan Shijing greeted and ran over to Xuan Shijing's side.
Xuan Shijing stopped and looked at Xuan Shijing: "What's the matter?" ”
"Cousin, don't be so estranged, you and I are cousins, we should be closer and closer, what has my cousin been busy with lately?" Speaking of self-cooking, Xuan Shiqing can really understand the meaning of this word.
However, when Xuan Shiqing asked, Xuan Shijing suddenly became curious, what are children of Xuan Shiqing's age doing in the Tang Dynasty? It stands to reason that this age is the time to go to a private school, and the children of the nobles of Xuan Shijing Box Chang'an City are enrolled in Hongwen Hall together, but this is a special case after all, because according to Xuan Shijing's age, they can't enter Hongwen Hall, and the students of Hongwen Hall are generally teenagers.
Xuan Shijing looked at Xuan Shiqing, and no one in the mansion came to tell him that Xuan Shiqing was going to school or something, so what was he doing living in the Hou Mansion every day.
"I've been enrolled in Hongbunkan since the first month of the year." Xuan Shijing replied, and then asked, "I don't know what my cousin is busy with." ”
"Alas, what else can I be busy with, my mother hired a gentleman for me, and locked me in the yard every day to study, and I finally came out to breathe, didn't I meet my cousin." Xuan Shiqing replied with a smile.
It turned out that he invited Mr., but Xuan Shijing forgot about it, not all rich families invited Mr. to come to the house to teach their children, and most of the people who went to private schools outside were children of ordinary people.
"But cousin, you are really powerful, you actually went to the Hongwen Pavilion, I heard that the gentlemen in the Hongwen Pavilion are all highly respected literary heroes, and the Hongwen Pavilion only accepts the children of the powerful, and the cousin can enter the Hongwen Pavilion at a young age, which shows how much Your Majesty favors you." Xuan Shijing sighed, frustrated in his heart, why didn't he have that fate: "By the way, cousin, I heard that you were assassinated in the house during the Chinese New Year?" ”
"Huh?" Xuan Shijing was puzzled, why did Xuan Shiqing mention this?
"I've heard rumors from people that the two treasures of Dabao bravely captured the assassins." Xuan Shiqing scratched his head and smiled.
So that's the case, since Dabao Erbao settled down in the Hou Mansion, Xuan Shiqing has always had the idea of raising a tiger or something, and after hearing that the tiger raised by Xuan Shijing can still capture the assassin, this idea has become stronger and stronger.
"Cousin, I heard that there are still three assassins left in the mansion, why didn't I see them?"
"What are you looking for this assassin?" Xuan Shiqing asked curiously.
Xuan Shiqing paused, and then smiled awkwardly: "I'm curious, I just want to take a look." ”
Xuan Shijing also smiled and said, "These three people are now being thrown to Zhuangzi to do coolies. ”
"Well, then I can't see it, haha." Xuan Shijing smiled dryly, and then said: "I almost forgot, if I have been out for a long time, my mother will look for me, cousin, I will leave first." After speaking, Xuan Shiqing turned around and ran towards his courtyard.
Looking at the back of Xuan Shiqing's departure, Xuan Shijing's expression was a little complicated, how could Xuan Shiqing mention the matter of the assassin in a good manner, could it be that the assassin had anything to do with him?
Shaking his head, Xuan Shiqing is just a child, how could he be involved in this kind of thing, but if it doesn't matter, how could Xuan Shiqing come to inquire about such a thing. Xuan Shijing pondered carefully.
"Little Marquis, why are you standing here?"
Xuan Shijing, who was thinking, looked up and saw that it was Uncle Xiang.
"Uncle Xiang." Xuan Shijing said hello and said, "I was about to go to my mother's place, and I just met my cousin here, so we chatted for a while. ”
Xuan Shijing remembered that that night, it was Uncle Xiang who came to help, and asked, "Uncle Xiang, have you been paying attention to those three assassins recently?" ”
Uncle Xiang nodded: "Tell the people in Zhuangzi to keep an eye on it, but there is no movement yet." ”
"It's really calm." Xuan Shijing muttered to himself.
Uncle Xiang smiled: "If I were them, I would be able to calm down, the more urgent this matter is, the easier it is to show my feet, although the Hou Mansion has no power and no power in the court, it does not mean that the Hou Mansion can be bullied, not to mention that a group of people have come to Erxian Village recently, and they naturally dare not act rashly." ”
After Uncle Xiang said this, Xuan Shijing also felt that what Uncle Xiang said made some sense, is it more patient than patience, then consume it.
"Uncle Xiang, you are in the house, occasionally pay attention to my cousin, just now he seems to have inquired about the assassin intentionally or unintentionally.
"If it's a young master, it's impossible, but if that's the case, I'm afraid it's not the young master who should pay attention, but your cousin and aunt." Uncle Xiang said.
Xuan Shijing frowned, if this matter was related to Xuan Lin Dao, then what did he want to do? What good is tying themselves up for their family?
"Maybe he's just curious, inadvertently asking." Xuan Shijing said: "We don't need to be all soldiers, just pay attention to the following on weekdays." ”
Uncle Xiang stroked his beard, nodded expressionlessly, and then responded, "I know." ”
"Uncle Xiang, did my cousin invite a master to come to the house for my cousin?" Xuan Shijing asked.
"Exactly, it's just that this is their own family business, so we haven't mentioned it to the little marquis, and there is another thing, the cousin has often been absent from the mansion recently, and the people in the mansion have seen him in the restaurant in Chang'an City, as if he is interacting with some dignitaries."
Xuan Lindao's move responded to the information found out by Zhong Zishuo, Xuanlindao's family came to settle in Chang'an City, and it really wanted to find a backer for the Li family again, as for why the Li family had to come over with Xuanlindao and the Li family, I am afraid that Xuanlindao was Xuan Shijing's cousin, although Xuan Shijing was young, but after all, he was a marquis, and he was deeply favored by the emperor. If you send someone else over, not to mention that the Li family was originally close to Zhao Wangfu, they came for no reason, how could they quickly break into the noble circle of Chang'an City.
If the Li family's son-in-law comes to Chang'an, it will inevitably make people think that the Li family is watching the king of Zhao go to Anzhou, and they can't shelter them, and then look for another backer, some people take the meaning of tea and coolness, and the Xuanlin Dao family is different, not the Li family's descendants, and Chang'an City Xuanwei Hou is related to the family, outsiders don't know the grievances and grievances between the two families, the Xuanlin Dao family came to Chang'an, and made friends with the powerful, ordinary people will only think that this is just an ordinary walk.
"Don't bother with that." Xuan Shijing said with a smile: "What they have befriended is just some upstarts, if it was the nobles who came out of the army with His Majesty back then, they would definitely not pay attention to them, although their father has passed away, but there is a friendship between them to save face, so they know what kind of person I represent the family, and naturally they will not have anything to do with the family." ”
Xuan Shijing said well, the Tang Dynasty attaches the most importance to morality, some things about Xuan Lindao and the Li family back then, openly and secretly among the current high-level nobles in Chang'an City, although there are some more or less added oil and vinegar or partial generalizations, but it will definitely not affect these people's comments on them.
Uncle Xiang nodded yes, looking at Xuan Shijing's eyes more and more satisfied, and completely recognized Xuan Shijing, the new owner of Erxian Village, from the bottom of his heart.
