Chapter 434: Endless

Because Qin Tianjian had already reported that there was a solar eclipse on the first day of August, according to the eclipse rescue ceremony, the ceremonial door and the main hall of the Ministry of Rites had already set up incense cases, and golden drums were specially set up on both sides. When the solar eclipse arrives as scheduled, officials in court clothes visit the shrine one by one, not only the drums of the ceremonial department are sounding in unison, but also many people on the street are beating gongs and drums. Just when it was easy to toss and toss again, the ministers who were about to disperse had to report the death of Zhu Zhanyin, the fourth grandson of the crown prince, and they were all stunned for a while.

Although today's Qin Tianjian can almost predict when the solar eclipse will occur and when it will end, this eclipse rescue is still regarded as a major event by the imperial court, and it is still not a matter of sloppiness to bow down. So when he returned home on this day, Zhang Yue complained in his heart that feudal superstition killed people, but when he saw that the housekeeper Gao Quan was directing his subordinates to put away gongs and drums and other things, he could only sigh when he remembered that when the solar eclipse appeared before, the city was beating gongs and drums, and he could only sigh.

In any case, it is good to have a sense of reverence!

Gao Quan turned around and saw Zhang Yue who was about to walk inside, and hurriedly rushed forward to salute. After glancing left and right, he personally sent Zhang Yue inside. After waiting for the screen door and seeing that there was no one around, he whispered, "Third Young Master, you can be regarded as back!" Because of the solar eclipse, when the family was beating gongs and drums, there was a big mess in the family, and Aunt Fang didn't know what method to use, so she disguised herself as a small servant and secretly ran away from the back door. After the second wife found out, she didn't report to the old lady first, but counted whether there was anything left in her own room, so it was too late to wait until she reported it. ”

"How is that possible!" Zhang Yue was immediately shocked when she heard this, "Even if she slips out, how can she get out of the city without a road guide, even if she is on the road, it is difficult to move an inch!" ”

At this moment, Gao Quan's face unconsciously showed a little embarrassment: "This little one is really not clear, it was only after I went to various city gates after the incident that I found out that Aunt Fang had already led out of the Xuanwu Gate by the road." The old lady was really angry this time, and she was furious in the upper room of the North Courtyard, and the three wives were all faceless, and they didn't even have dinner at this time, and asked the third young master to persuade her. Fortunately, very few people know about it, and when I went out to inquire, I only said that there was a girl running away from home. ”

Although Zhang Yue felt that this matter was extremely strange, this was not the time to care about these at this moment, the important thing was that the old grandmother Gu was already a lot older, and if she was angry because of this matter, it would be a great deal. At the moment, he didn't have time to talk to Gao Quan, so he nodded lightly and hurriedly entered the second gate. When he came to the upper room of the north courtyard, he found that there were only a few girls in the hall. At this time, Bai Fang happened to open the curtain and come out of the back room.

"The third young master is back!" Seeing Zhang Yue, Bai Fang was really overjoyed, hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and said in a low voice, "The old lady didn't even listen to the persuasion of the third young grandmother and Sister Lingxi, and sent them back, and just drove the slave out again." She said she didn't have an appetite to eat, so you should go in and take a look. This person is iron rice and steel, how can he do it without eating. ”

Zhang Yue only nodded, and immediately entered the back room. Seeing that Gu was reclining on the back of the kang chair, his face could not tell whether he was sad or happy, so he stepped forward and called softly. At this time, Gu Shi Fang didn't look too much, and when she saw that it was Zhang Yue, she sneered with a straight face: "You also know? Well, this kind of thing hasn't happened in the family for decades, and now it's really out of place. One said that it was the second room, but in fact, everyone left a few words as the head of the master and ran away; The other is already Mrs. Bo's top wife, and when she encounters this kind of thing, she counts things first, and she doesn't even distinguish between priorities and priorities! The son is like this, and so is the old man, he is a bastard! ”

Thinking of Fang Shuixin's identity and the current whereabouts of his second uncle Zhang You, it was naturally impossible for Zhang Yue not to worry. Qianguo Gong Mu Yongzhen Yunnan, whenever Jiaozhi uses troops, it must be rear support, and now I heard that due to the harsh levy, the southwest Yi has been quite unstable. Seeing that there was still hot tea on the kang table, he persuaded Gu to drink half a cup, and seeing that his grandmother was no longer the scene of gritting her teeth just now, he opened his mouth to persuade him.

"It's all out of here, grandmother, please put your anger aside for the time being, how to deal with the aftermath is the most important thing. Now it is necessary to find out how the person left, but also to find out why she left. You just said a few words, what did she say? ”

"What's more, before Mangshi Tusi specially asked people to send her a letter, saying that it was to ask your second uncle to ask for more cotton cloth and tea for their clan, but your second uncle got cotton cloth, but tea is rare, after all, there are prohibitions in the imperial court. She left a message and said to the little girl who was serving her in the second room, since your second uncle is gone, she is not willing to stay in the Zhang family, she would rather go to her father, and persuade him not to be confused because of the court's mistreatment...... The most damn thing is that the little girl also said that Fang Shuixin vomited for several days but didn't make a sound! If this is really happy, can you still have a life after running thousands of miles? This confused woman simply doesn't want her life, even if she is a woman, she has a guide and those jewelry as entanglements, God knows what dangers are there along the way! ”

Zhang Yue is naturally not a fool, and when he heard this, he never asked a stupid question about where the guide came from, and comforted Gu Shi with soft words. Gu Shi Xian's anger was almost gone, and at this time, she saw Zhang Yue personally go outside to bring up the food box and fill the kang table, and said that she would accompany her to eat in person, so she could only reluctantly move the chopsticks, but after drinking most of the bowl of porridge, she put down the bowl, and looked at him thoughtfully, as if eating those home-cooked meals like a delicacy.

Because he was really tossed by the solar eclipse that he had predicted in advance but couldn't dodge, Zhang Yue naturally ate faster, and when he noticed that his grandmother had been watching him, it was already after he had eaten a bowl of rice. Although he doesn't care about the principle of cherishing blessings and eating less, it is not good to only care about eating for himself.

"It's good to be able to eat, see what I do?" Gu Shi smiled angrily, and sighed deeply, "You just know what happened this time, the whole Zhang family has no face when it gets bigger." Your second uncle made the earl, I thought that the family was thriving, who knew that the trouble would never stop. Do you know that when your second uncle was leaving, he hinted that I couldn't stay in the outer room of Brother Chao'er, and this time it was my turn...... Well, they are decisive when they are fathers and mothers, but this is an example for their children! This manly husband is responsible for everything he does! ”

Speaking of this, Gu really didn't even have the strength to blame, so he immediately ordered lightly: "You pay more attention to the affairs of Jiaonan in the military department, and I will naturally ask someone to track down the whereabouts of Fang Shuixin, hoping that it will be too late." Your mother will leave in a few days, and I have already mentioned to her that I will leave the girl behind this time. Hengzhu, your daughter-in-law doesn't have to worry about housework, let her teach this sister-in-law well. Several of our family are children of the same age, and we will have each other's companions in the future. If it weren't for your eldest sister's taboo about the past now, I would have wanted someone to take Brother Ang over, alas......"

After accompanying the Gu family to gossip for a while, he accompanied the old man to walk outside for a while to eat, until he placed the person and lay down, Zhang Yue returned to his yard. As soon as he entered the room, he saw that there was only Xiao Wu, and he couldn't help but be a little confused. After all, now that she is his sister-in-law, she no longer lives in Zhang's house on weekdays, why hasn't she returned to Du's house so late?

"Little Five, where is your sister?"

"Brother-in-law, you're back!"

Hearing such a sentence for the third time today, Zhang Yue couldn't help but want to smile bitterly, but when he saw Xiao Wu jumping up and looking around, he felt that something was wrong. The little girl has always been a sunny character, even if she has something to say, she will not avoid others. Sure enough, after making sure that there were no outsiders in the house, she pulled Zhang Yue to the kang and sat down, and then whispered: "My sister now has a Jingguan, and she will have to take care of Jing'er in the future, and she is busy all day, so I don't dare to tell her...... Actually, I didn't mean to eavesdrop, both times it was a coincidence......"

The more she slurred like this, the more Zhang Yue felt nervous, and hurriedly interrupted: "What happened?" ”

"A few days ago, Xia Yuan Jixia Shangshu came to see my father, because I listened to my mother's instructions and just sent things over, so I heard a few words, it seemed to be discussing what the treasury allocated food and salary......" Xiao Wu moved a small pestle and sat down opposite Zhang Yue, and then he looked up and said, "I don't understand these things, so I didn't pay attention to them, who knew that Bachelor Yang also came to see Daddy yesterday evening, I happened to come back from Doctor Feng, just as Daddy sent guests to the door, I heard Bachelor Yang say to Daddy, the emperor hates friends, He had to be more cautious as a courtier. As a result, as soon as the people left, when my father and I went in together, he told me that even if people can't be iron-clad, they should at least have a clear conscience. ”

Speaking of this, she paused slightly, and then glanced at Zhang Yue with a weak heart: "I just think that my father's tone of saying that to me is categorical, as if he is instructing, as if he is saying it to himself, and it sounds weird." Brother-in-law, does Dad think I overheard him and Lord Xia that day? ”

"How can my father-in-law be so suspicious?" Zhang Yue smiled and asked, "Which one is Master Yang?" ”

"Huh? It is Yang Shiqi and Yang Ge, who are good friends with his father. ”

Knowing that it was Yang Shiqi, Zhang Yue couldn't help frowning thoughtfully. Yang Shiqi has always been known for his calmness and moderation, and since there is such a reminder, he has undoubtedly gotten some rumors. It's just that Du Zhen was clearly ordered to rectify the banknote customs with Xia Yuanji and re-determine the commercial tax, and some exchanges are normal, besides, if his old father-in-law is a friend, the world will be all a friend.

But let's pay attention to this matter first...... This year is really weird, things in the DPRK and China are endless, don't just have endless things at home!
