When Xi Fuwei heard this, it was like a drowning person meeting a life-saving straw, and she didn't even have time to remember why there was a familiar voice in this strange place?

She hurriedly turned around, but saw a man in brocade standing seven or eight steps away.

At about the age of the crown, his face is well-defined, his eyebrows and eyes are straight, and his eyes are as sharp as knives.

"Who are you?" Xi Fuwei glanced at him slightly, and then looked around, but there was no trace of Xi Jiao, and the joy that had just risen suddenly turned into nothing, and the gaze that looked at him instantly turned vigilant.

"Jin Yiwei." The man's face was not shocked, and the three words he spit out lightly not only made Xi Fuwei stunned, but even the woman behind her, who was still stiff, also changed her face greatly!

The Jinyi Guard of the Dynasty, formerly known as the Gongwei Division personally set up by His Majesty the Emperor Taizu, was changed to the pro-military Governor's Mansion, governed by the Yiluan Division, when Hongwu was fifteen years old, it was decided that the name of "Jinyi Guard" was set, and he was in charge of the prison, and had the right to inspect and arrest, and set up the Department of Suppression and Fu, with great authority.

The commanders at that time, Mao Xiang and Jiang Rong (huan), also really lived up to this power, so that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were terrified of them.

Later, His Majesty Emperor Taizu was getting older, and in order to pave the way for Prince Yiwen, he abandoned it in the twentieth year of Hongwu.

However, today's Yongle Emperor Xu is because of the improper position, and after ascending the throne, he used this yamen again.

In the past few years, although Jinyiwei has not made any moves comparable to the "Blue Jade Case", relying on the reputation of his predecessors, it is still enough to deter the government and the opposition.

Whether it was Xi Fuwei or the woman, hearing him report his home, his heart jumped, and he instinctively became vigilant.

"Ling's nephew is now in the Jinyi Guard's Yanzhou Guard." The man was indifferent to their reactions, and said in a flat and straightforward tone, "Please also ask the two of you to come to the door and settle the matter." ”

…… After a while, Xi Fuwei looked around a little frightened.

Although I know that under the official system of the dynasty, the official office is rarely repaired, but now the brocade guard is also a little dilapidated!

Xi Fuwei was very skeptical, but if there was a slightly stronger gust of wind blowing, the entire roof would fall off!

Looking at the steady people sitting not far away, she blurted out: "Dare to ask where the little nephew is?" , there was a ridiculous hint of untimely admiration.

The man didn't speak, only turned his head to the lieutenant beside him and bowed slightly.

The lieutenant left knowingly, and soon brought Xi Jiao, who had changed into a robe that obviously didn't fit well.

Xi Jiao's face was shocked, but the overall was calm, Xi Fuwei hurriedly pulled him to his side to check, and asked in a low voice, when he knew that he was attracted by the woman's attention, two men suddenly turned out from behind the high wall, covered his mouth and carried him away, in the middle he wanted to struggle, but was knocked unconscious, and when he woke up again, it was in the hands of Jinyiwei.

Jin Yiwei gave him a general inspection, because the original clothes were dirty, and he specially found a set of robes to change for him, and finally gave him some tea and pastries...... However, Xi Jiao was afraid of life, and he didn't dare to eat it at all, and he was secretly relieved when he saw his familiar aunt, and after saying it in one breath, he asked timidly: "Uncle, can I eat that osmanthus cake?" ”

"Go eat!" Xi Fuwei touched his head lovingly, and was about to continue to comfort him for a few words, but there was already a light cough not far away: "Take Xiao Gongzi Xi down to use osmanthus cake!" ”

The previous lieutenant immediately walked over to tie in with him.

Xi Jiao subconsciously hid behind Xi Fuwei.

Xi Fuwei hesitated for a moment, pulled him out, handed him to the captain, and advised: "Auntie wants to talk to this adult for a while, Jiao'er, you are obedient, go to eat osmanthus cake with this one first...... I'll see you later! ”

Xi Jiao is obviously very reluctant, but because he has been weak since he was a child, he can't do anything nonsense at this time, so he can only turn around and go one step at a time.

Seeing her nephew leave, Xi Fuwei turned to the Jinyi Wei who brought her here, and was about to solemnly thank you, but the man took the first step to speak unhurriedly: "Miss Xi, counting this time, this is not the first time that this official has helped you!" ”

“…… Are you a distant guest who mourned your brother that day?! Xi Fuwei was stunned when she heard this, blurted out, and subconsciously asked, "Is my brother's death real?!" ”

The nails dug into the flesh at the same time.

However, the man just laughed: "Miss Xi thought that she was a young woman, and she also took the young Xiao Gong Xi, how did she escape the search of the Wen family and enter Yanzhou City without danger?" ”

"It turns out that when our aunt and nephew escaped from Dongchang Mansion, the reason why they were able to get the road guide and the like so smoothly was that they also had the secret help of the honorable driver?" Xi Fuwei was shocked in her heart, and said, "With such love, there is really no way to repay the little girl!" ”

The man was also refreshed and said, "If Miss Xi really wants to repay her kindness, it is not without a way. ”

After a pause, he replied, "I heard that Miss Xi has the style of a brother, and she is quite spiritual in calligraphy, and she is ashamed of herself when she is alive. ”

Xi Fuwei's words are really good, this is because Xi Zongwang has always raised his daughter as a son, and he has no contempt; Second, Xi Fuguang is such a sister, who has always been pampered, and has been giving guidance for many years, whether it is calligraphy or homework; The third is that she has a good talent, because there are few people in her family, and there are many things she needs to worry about, so she has always regarded practicing calligraphy as one of the means to calm her mind.

Over time, his achievements in calligraphy have indeed surpassed Xi Fuguang.

It's just that because of the Wen family, the father and son of the Xi family have been keeping it secret in order to establish their own "reserved and dignified" door style.

So except for Xi Zongwang, Xi Fuguang and Xi Fuwei's close attendants, no one knew that Xi Fuwei had such a specialty.

Now that Jin Yiwei was broken by this first face, Xi Fuwei was not very surprised, after all, after the lessons of the Hongwu Dynasty, Jin Yiwei's knowledge of all secrets had long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Xi Fuwei was surprised why this person mentioned this?

After all, although her handwriting is very good, it is only good compared to ordinary people, and it is still not comparable to the real people.

The identity of the person in front of you is so special, it can't be that you want to ask yourself for words, right?

"It's just scribbling, and I don't dare to be an adult." She replied cautiously as she pondered.

The man smiled again, very amiable, but the sharpness in his eyes did not change in the slightest, he was still so aggressive, and the sharp edge was dazzling, so that the originally gentle tone seemed to have no room for turn: "The Xi family has suddenly undergone a big change, and it is really sad for the listener to cry and the hearer...... Miss Xi is now coming to Yanzhou alone with her little son, using a pseudonym, and she obviously knows it. But I don't know what Miss Xi plans to do next? ”

"I was trying to ask for advice!" Xi Fuwei smiled bitterly in her heart when she heard this, and said secretly: Not to mention that when I first arrived, my nephew almost asked someone to abduct and sell him, where else do you have any plans at this time? Now that my aunt and nephew are drinking tea in Jinyiwei's guard, even if you have made plans before, can you still go according to your plan now?

But the bitter smile is a bitter smile, but she is not in a bad mood at this time, and there is even a trace of quietly breeding and secret expectations.

"If Miss Xi doesn't have a place to go, why don't you recommend an errand to you?" The man was very satisfied with her knowledge, and he didn't go around in circles, and said bluntly, "The Zou family, a big family in Jining City, is recruiting female gentlemen for a few young ladies in their family these days. Miss Xi has a good heart and has a lot of experience in calligraphy, so why not give it a try? ”

"You must know that the status of the Zou family in Yanzhou Mansion is equivalent to the status of the Wen family in Dongchang Mansion!"

"And the Zou family is known for its benevolence, and this time it is very generous to hire a female gentleman...... Of course, Miss Xi is not short of silver for the time being, but the mother of the Zou family is generous and loves to fight unevenly, so she must be in the arms of Miss Xi? ”

Xi Fuwei said cautiously: "I'm only afraid of the mountains and wild girls, and I can't get into the eyes of the Zou family's housewife?" ”

Miss Xi laughed. The man smiled, but his eyes were calm, without any smile, and said lightly, "Although the mother of the Zou family attaches great importance to the upbringing of girls, it is a far-sighted measure. However, today, how many families can afford to support their boys to study? Even girls are taught literacy and hyphenation, to the point where they can come out to be a teacher, is this the treatment that ordinary girls can have? ”

"How can such a person let him show his face?"

"To put it mildly, only a situation like Miss Xi's will go to their family to be a gentleman...... Miss Xi thought there would be a lot of such people? Even if there are a lot, after they lose the protection of their father and brother, how many of them can go to Jining Mansion as smoothly as Miss Xi? ”

Xi Fuwei figured out what he said, there should be no collusion with the Zou family, but he just had great confidence in his selection, or rather, it was because he felt that he had a great chance of being selected, so he secretly protected himself and Xi Jiao from coming to Yanzhou without danger?

After groaning, he asked straight to the point: "After entering the Zou Mansion...... What should I do? ”

The man glanced at her approvingly: "Miss Xi, do you know that Your Majesty intends to reopen the canal for the needs of Cao Yun and prepare for the relocation of the capital to Beiping?" ”

“…… I have heard it, and I would like to hear it! Xi Fuwei's heart jumped, and she vaguely felt as if she was about to step into a big whirlpool!

She instinctively wanted to escape, but she thought of her father and brother, and thought of the Xi Mansion who God knows if she could go back...... Forcefully suppressed this impulse, and said in a deep voice, "Please also ask the adults to give me advice!" ”

The man smiled and said: "Actually, there is nothing to say, it is nothing more than a sentence: Beiping is the land of Your Majesty's Longxing, and Your Majesty has long intended to move the capital, but some people in the court, out of all kinds of selfishness, are always opposed. Although he didn't dare to refute His Majesty on the scene, he didn't have no action in private...... Your Majesty is benevolent, and you don't want to disturb the people because of this, Jinyi Wei is the Son of Heaven's own army, so he naturally wants to share his worries for His Majesty! ”

When Xi Fuwei heard this, she was very disappointed, and originally thought that if Jinyiwei and the Wen family's position were opposite, they would just borrow a knife to kill people!

However, moving the capital is not only the meaning of Emperor Yongle, but also the meaning of Jinyiwei, and she speculates that the Wen family is also in favor of this move, and even has a relationship with the nobles from Ying Tianfu.

was depressed, and then heard the man continue: "But Your Majesty is the lord of the world, and the so-called shore of the land is not the king's minister...... Among the courtiers, there are not no people who share His Majesty's worries, and there are still some who are lieutenant officials...... Well, I don't know what these people think? Isn't it good to serve Your Majesty in the palace? Outside, the hand is stretched out so long......"

He didn't continue to finish, but Xi Fuwei subconsciously held her breath and didn't dare to make a sound.

The slender and white knuckles tapped lightly on the dilapidated wooden table, and the man smiled again and said, "The canal is in the territory of the Shandong Political Envoy, and the important places are nothing more than two places: Yanzhou Mansion and Dongchang Mansion. ”

"After Miss Xi entered the Zou family, it was good to pay attention to the relevant things."

It's just to find out the news, and you don't have to do anything else?

Xi Fuwei was thoughtful and was about to speak, when the man said, "Oh yes, in order to let Miss Xi concentrate on teaching her disciples, Xiao Gongzi Xi will be taken care of by the official during this time!" ”

This is to take Xi Jiao as a hostage.

Although it was expected, Xi Fuwei couldn't help but say: "Jiao'er is already six years old, it's time to enlighten!" ”

"Some of the subordinates under the command of this official are also about the same age." The man was unmoved, and said calmly, "When the time comes, we can go to school together, and we can be each other's companions." ”

Xi Fuwei knew that she couldn't change this, pursed her lips, and it took a long time to calm down and say, "About the Wen family......"

"Miss Xi!" The man smiled, seemingly gentle, but interrupted her extremely strongly, "Miss Xi, this official thinks that making my aunt and nephew in Yanzhou City is enough to show the sincerity of this official?" ”

The implication is that secretly ensuring that your aunt and nephew have escaped to Yanzhou without danger is the benefit of letting you work and advance money this time!

If you want Jinyiwei to help you deal with the Wen family, you must make other contributions next!

Otherwise, Jinyiwei is not a big wrong!

Xi Fuwei heard it, and she had nothing to say but was also aggrieved: since she became the family, even if the Xi family fell to the point that the family was broken and her father had no one to guard her soul, she had never been so passive!

From beginning to end, the rhythm is in the hands of the person in front of you.

She had no choice but to nod, but she had no choice at all!

"Dare to ask your lord's name?" Xi Fuwei resisted the urge to vomit blood and said, "Your grace, it's unforgettable!" ”

The man seemed to see her true intentions, smiled, and said slowly: "Jinyi Wei Yanzhou Guards 100 households, Shen Steal Blue, the word is young. ”
