Wei looked at Xia Fengyi's departing figure, walked to Meng Tianchu's side and whispered to ask, I think the eldest lady's expression is wrong. ”

"Master, the king is here." Old He Tou stepped forward and said.

Meng Tianchu turned around and saw that Wang Yi had already walked inside the gate and walked towards him, so he said to Xu Wei: "Okay, I know." ”

Wang Yi stepped forward, and Meng Tianchu introduced: "This is Lord Xu Weixu, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and next to him is Lord Sima Ru, the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple in the capital, and this is Wang Yi and Wang Zhutou of my county government." ”

After greeting each other, Wang Yi said, "I have already been to the eldest master in the morning. ”

Meng Tianchu: "What did the eldest master say?" ”

Wang Yi: "The eldest lord said that he already knew, and said that the Yang family had come to look for him, and the day before yesterday he had been kneeling at the door of the yamen and not leaving, saying that he would not let go of her family, so she went to Beijing to sue the emperor." ”

Xu Wei: "Then the Yang family can really toss, if she really wants to save her father-in-law in this case, I'm afraid she will really have to sue the royal court." ”

Wang Yi was shocked when he heard this, and said, "Is it really that serious?" ”

Meng Tianchu nodded and said, "Yes."

Wang Yi sighed: "That He Ding is really pitiful, I went to see it yesterday, and he was indeed sick, and the illness was not light." ”

Meng Tianchu thought for a while and said, "Have you told the eldest master about this?" ”

Wang Yi nodded.

Meng Tianchu: "What do you mean, big master?" ”

Wang Yi: "I came to you to ask about this matter, and the eldest master asked me to ask you and let you decide." ”

Meng Tianchu: "That's it." Or let him go home. Let them find a Lang Zhong for He Ding to see, and then send four officials to guard He Ding day and night, and not leave half a step. ”

Wang Yi: "Master, didn't you just say that He Ding's case is very serious?" Where is there such a felon, if he dies or runs away, our yamen has no way to explain it. ”

Meng Tianchu: "I naturally understand what you mean, you just do it." Then sign a letter of guarantee with Na Yang, promising that there will be no unexplained disappearance or death of He Ding during his return home. Otherwise, you will be punished by joint sitting."

Wang Yi arched his hand and said: "I understand, then I'll go first." ”

Meng Tianchu nodded, and Wang Yi was just about to leave. Meng Tianchu said: "The eldest master didn't say when this case was going to be passed. When will it be presented to the prefect's yamen? What is the crime? ”

Wang Yi: "The eldest lord said that he would go to the prefect to discuss it, as for what the crime." I told him what you meant, and he said that he probably couldn't pass through the prefect's yamen, saying that there had been a similar case in the past, and that case was submitted to the criminal department, and in the end it was quite controversial. He was sentenced to death, and he was not even hanged. Or behead the marquis, alas! ”

Meng Tianchu frowned and said, "Then you go, come to me again if you have something." ”

"Yes."

After saying goodbye to Xu Wei and Sima Ru, Wang Yi left in a hurry.

Xu Wei said: "It seems that the virtuous brother has the intention to help Na He Ding, but why don't you tell the Yang family?" ”

Meng Tianchu: "I don't want to give the other party a hope, as the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment." ”

Sima Ru: "It's really difficult for you, so if the Yang family doesn't know, don't save it." ”

Meng Tianchu laughed dryly twice and said, "It's hard to explain, it's enough for me to do my best to do my own things in the mainland." They'll always understand. ”

Xu Wei and Sima Ru nodded, and Xu Wei said, "Then you can go and see the eldest lady now." ”

Meng Tianchu snorted, asked Xu Wei and Sima Ru to rest, and went straight to Xia Fengyi's courtyard by himself.

Meng Tianchu came to the door of Xia Fengyi's room, and the maid at the door hurriedly bowed down and was about to speak, Meng Tianchu signaled to the maid not to make a sound, and the maid did not scream.

Meng Tianchu walked up to the maid and whispered, "Is the eldest lady resting?" ”

The maid said: "The fourth lady is here, and the two of them are talking." ”

Meng Tianchu nodded, and was about to raise his legs to enter the door, when he suddenly heard Feiyan say, "Then why don't you tell the master?" ”

Immediately followed by Xia Fengyi's voice and said, "You have a quieter voice, I wish everyone could hear it." ”

Feiyan: "But I don't think you can tell the master nothing, the master is so smart, if you don't tell him, you will be blamed for it." ”

Xia Fengyi: "Besides, then the Yang family is just scaring people, what else can a woman do?" She just saw that her prime minister was in the cell and was sick, so she was anxious, so she said what the so-called kidnapping of children was, I have already told Chai Meng and Lao Hetou, let me always pay attention to the safety of the inner courtyard, especially the courtyard of Jiayindi, I don't think anything will happen. ”

Meng Tianchu was taken aback when he heard this, and then Feiyan said: "Big lady, I know that you are kind-hearted, and I also know that the master will not believe what the third lady said, but you can't do everything yourself, Sister Jiayin said that people and Sister Jiayin can't go to see anything in vain, but you go to Zhenxue's house by yourself, which is not good." ”

Xia Fengyi: "Okay, okay, when did you become so verbose, just don't tell the master." He's been quite tired lately, too. ”

Meng Tianchu walked in the door and said, "No matter how tired I am, I shouldn't let you be like this for a day?" ”

Xia Fengyi and Feiyan were sitting on the edge of the bed talking, Xia Fengyi probably washed her face simply, her face was facing the sky, she looked a little pale, and her hair loss was scattered and had not been combed. Seeing Meng Tianchu come in, he didn't know how much he had listened, the two of them glanced at each other, and quickly stood up and saluted Meng Tianchu.

Meng Tianchu walked up to the two of them, put one hand on a woman's shoulder and motioned for them to sit down, and then sat down between them himself.

Xia Fengyi looked at Meng Tianchu with some weakness, but did not speak, Meng Tianchu said, "Okay, I heard everything." Feng Yi. You weren't like that before, but you seem to have a lot on your mind lately. ”

Xia Fengyi looked at Meng Tianchu, Meng Tianchu put his hand on Xia Fengyi's hand, and said earnestly: "You and I are husband and wife, you think about me everywhere and share it for me, it is for the blessing of the husband, but." There are some things you don't have to carry alone,"

Feiyan said: "I do the same to the eldest lady

You also have to persuade her. ”

Xia Fengyi glanced at Feiyan sternly. whispered, "Talkative." ”

Feiyan muttered. looked very aggrieved, and stopped talking.

Xia Fengyi looked at Meng Tianchu and said, "It's not that I won't tell you, I just think that if you say it, you will be worried." Actually, there are some things I can solve, so I won't bother you anymore, will I? ”

Meng Tianchu said: "I heard at the door just now that the Yang family said some threatening words, right?" ”

Xia Fengyi saw that Meng Tianchu heard it, and she couldn't hide it, so she nodded. said: "I think she is probably in a hurry, and she doesn't really have any ideas." ”

Meng Tianchu: "You." That's how it was when there was land, but fortunately I knew. Have you already told Chai Meng and Lao Hetou? ”

"It's all explained, there shouldn't be any problems."

"Then what Feiyan said about Jiayin, what is the matter of not being able to go to see white things?"

Xia Fengyi looked at Feiyan angrily, and then said with a smile: "I know that you don't believe in these places, so I won't tell you, since you don't believe it, you will feel bored if you say it, so it's better not to tell you." ”

Meng Tianchu was about to speak, when he saw a rush of footsteps at the door, and a voice said at the door: "Big lady, the third lady said that the nurse took the young master out and hasn't brought it back yet, let me tell you." ”

When Xia Fengyi heard this, she almost fell from the chair to the ground, her face suddenly turned pale, and she secretly complained in her heart, oh my God, don't you think about anything, didn't you tell Chai Meng and Lao He to pay attention?

Xia Fengyi thought about it, so she rushed to the door and opened the door, only to see that the maid was already as godless as herself.

Meng Tianchu stepped forward, and saw that Xia Fengyi's body was shaking, and before she could ask, she was already unable to hold on to it, so she hurriedly held Xia Fengyi and asked, "You make it clear, what's going on?" ”

The maid looked like she was about to cry, and said: "At noon, the nurse said that she was taking the young master out for a walk, so that the third lady could sleep well, and the eldest lady and the old man were not there, and the third lady said that she didn't need to tell the second lady, she was allowed, but it had been almost two hours since she went out, and the third lady woke up and saw that the nurse and the young master had not come back yet, so she was anxious to let me say." ”

Meng Tianchu hurriedly said: "Did the nurse follow her or the maid when she went out?" ”

The maid shook her head, and Meng Tianchu said: "You hurry up and ask the concierge, Feiyan, you go to see Jiayin, first persuade me, I'll go find Chai Meng and Zhu Hao." ”

Xia Fengyi grabbed Meng Tianchu's hand and said tremblingly: "Tianchu..."

Meng Tianchu looked at Xia Fengyi and said, "Don't worry, I'll go see it right away." With that, he immediately ran out.

Feiyan said: "Don't worry, big lady, there will be nothing wrong, I'll go to Sister Jiayin's place to have a look, I'll be back soon, you just wait for the news in the room." ”

The maid and Feiyan hurried out.

Meng Tianchu happened to meet Chai Meng when he went out, so he said, "Have you seen the nurse and Jin'er?" ”

Chai Meng saw that Meng Tianchu's expression was wrong, and hurriedly said, "After noon, I saw that the nurse went out with the young master

"Didn't you let the servants or maids follow?"

Chai Meng thought for a while and said, "It doesn't seem to be." ”

Meng Tianchu's hair felt stand on end, he rushed to the door in a few steps, Chai Meng also felt that something was wrong, and quickly called someone to lead the carriage to the door, and said, "Master Meng, let's go to the nurse's house to have a look." ”

Meng Tianchu said: "The carriage is too slow, go and lead the horse." ”

When the subordinates heard this, they hurriedly went, and at this time, the subordinates and maids in the courtyard knew that the young master had asked the nurse to take it away and did not come back, so they all walked out, and everyone stood in the courtyard in fear, talking in a whisper.

At this time, Zuo Jiayin had a handkerchief wrapped around his head, and he was wearing a satin shirt with small flowers on a white background, so Feiyan stumbled out with his support, and Xia Fengyi also followed behind.

Just when Meng Tianchu was about to turn over and get on the horse, Zuo Jiayin said: "Tianchu! ”

Meng Tianchu turned around and saw that it was Zuo Jiayin, so he blamed Feiyan and said, "Feiyan, Jiayin can't go to the ground, why did you let her out?" ”

After speaking, he walked to Zuo Jiayin's side, carefully held her in his arms, and said softly: "Jiayin, don't worry, I'll go back as soon as I go, probably the nurse took her out to play, and forgot to go home, you go back quickly, you can't go to the ground, you can't blow the wind, you know?" ”

After speaking, he motioned to Feiyan to help Zuo Jiayin back to the room, and then he heard a voice behind him say, "Master, don't look for it, I'll bring the young master back." ”

Meng Tianchu looked back, and saw that Wen Wen was dressed lightly, and he was not wearing a dress, only a pair of white satin wide-brimmed pants, and a swaddling cloth in his arms.

Zuo Jiayin rushed forward, gently handed over the swaddling clothes to Zuo Jiayin, Zuo Jiayin looked at Gentle gratefully, took the swaddling clothes first, and saw that the child in the swaddling clothes was safe and sound.

Meng Tianchu handed the whip in his hand to Chai Meng, walked to Wen Rou's side curiously, and said, "Why is the child in your hands, what happened?" ”

Gentle smiled, pointed behind his back, and said, "Just look at it." ”

Meng Tianchu looked at it, and saw Zhu Hao enter the door with the nurse, and when the nurse saw Meng Tianchu, she was so frightened that she knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Gently walked up to the nurse and said coldly: "The master asked you, what is the matter, you tell the master what you did?" ”

The nurse looked up at Meng Tianchu in fear, and then at Zuo Jiayin, who was eager to eat herself, and hurriedly said, "Master, madam, I know it's wrong." It's all to blame that Wanniang was instigated by the poisonous woman for a while, and she had a bad idea, wanting to take Jin'er for herself, Wanniang already knew that she was wrong, and begged the old man and the four ladies to spare her life! ”

When Meng Tianchu heard this, he said angrily: "Who instigated you? ”

The nurse trembled and said, "It's just... It's just..."

Xia Fengyi stepped forward and said, "Is it Yang Sanniang?" ”

The nurse nodded.

Meng Tianchu immediately jumped like thunder and said: "I still want to do justice for her father-in-law and help her here, but she is good, and she actually plotted against me Meng Tianchu." ”

Feiyan took the child in Zuo Jiayin's hand, Zuo Jiayin walked to Gentle's side, and before she could speak, tears had already flowed out.
