Chapter 430: Things Happen for a Reason

It turns out that this book has such a origin

Yuan Lang finally understood.

As the saying goes, there are thousands of precautions, and it is difficult to prevent thieves, for this heirloom secret Jiang family must be heavily guarded, and no one should be close, but I am afraid that the Jiang family is up and down, except for a few core figures at the top, others don't even know where this book is hidden. Even the family keeper who takes care of the treasury does not know what the most important item in the warehouse he guards is, speaking of which, the head of the Jiang family is also a smart person, who knows the truth of hiding in the forest, and puts this chess book in the treasury that specializes in collecting gold and silver treasures. It is impossible to think that Qiu Ju would sneak into the warehouse for the sake of entangled road expenses, but Qiu Ju knows the value of this chess game very well, and as a result, Qiu Ju got the chess game, although this kind of behavior is not desirable from the perspective of Taoism, but the Jiang family's practice of Jiang Li'er and the baby is completely understandable from Qiu Ju's point of view.

There is no love for no reason in the world, and there is no hate for no reason, if there were no things before, there would be no adventure of Qiu Ju later.

After I got my hands on it, I didn't rush to escape overnight, because if I did that, I would be discovered as soon as it was dawn, and the Jiang family would easily be caught. So I have to wait until after dawn to leave when breakfast is crowded, and there are more than 50 people under the Jiang family. A lowly maid is gone, and others just think it's lazy and slippery, and they won't take it to heart. That way, I can buy a whole day. As for the treasury, the scattered silver taels I took were carefully extracted from the bottom of the silver pile, and it was extracted in several silver piles, unless the inventory was reconciled, otherwise it was not so easy to find, "One Heart Collection" is a problem. But the storage of secrets may only be known to a few Jiang family elders, and according to my observation for more than a month, usually every three days, the second Mrs. Jiang will enter the warehouse. And the day before I entered the warehouse, Mr. Jiang had just gone, so it was safer to move during the day. ”

In this way, I stayed up until dawn in anxious waiting. After waking up. I chopped wood and boiled water as usual, and only quietly slipped out of the house when everyone was eating, hired a carriage to go out of the city to Wen's mother-in-law's house, gave her ten taels of silver, told her not to tell anyone about the child, and then rushed to Xi'an, I was very careful along the way, and there were new carriages everywhere. And the route is not directly towards Xi'an, but first north and then west. zigzag forward, and sometimes even go back, so that even if the people sent by the Jiang family to pursue find clues, it is not easy to judge my true destination - if it is only the loss of silver in the treasury, the Jiang family will not take it to heart, but if the "One Heart Collection" is lost, the Jiang family will definitely fall into the Yellow Spring, and it will never be possible to stop if the "One Heart Collection" is not recovered. Qiu Ju said

, In the end, people who have endured hardships and have been tired, life experience and skills are much stronger than that of the eldest lady, if Tan Yi and Jiang Li'er have such careful consideration and planning as Qiu Ju, it is almost impossible for the Tan Jiang family to get the two of them without fanfare, the ruler is short, the inch is long, this is also - Yuan Lang sighed in his heart.

In this way, it took me more than half a year to come to Xi'an, and it was not difficult to find the Tan family's mansion, and I just asked a little two in the teahouse to figure it out, but it was not so simple to get in touch with Tan Gongzi."

The Tan family did not agree to the relationship between Miss and Tan Gongzi, not to mention that because of the elopement of the two, the Jiang and Tan families confronted each other head-on and were forced to leave the capital, and the head of the Tan family also resigned from the official position of deputy editor of the Hanlin Academy, and the power and reputation of the entire family were greatly affected, so they hated the Jiang family, especially my young lady, if the high-level of the Tan family knew that I took the flesh and blood of Miss and Tan Gongzi to defect, not only would I not be allowed to see Tan Gongzi, but I might also send someone to drive me out of Xi'an. Then I will never see Tan Gongzi again. ”

So after finding the Tan family, I didn't rush to act immediately, but rented a small house near the Tan family to settle down temporarily, and then watched and waited for the opportunity at the door of the Tan family every day - I didn't dare to call the people of the Tan family casually to ask about the situation, for fear that one would be accidentally noticed by others and found suspicious, the Tan family except Tan Gongzi I only know two, one is Tan Bo, the old housekeeper of the Tan family, and the other is Tan Lang, the scholar of Tan Gongzi, these two people are Tan Gongzi's henchmen, and the two of them are also in Huaguang Temple in Wutai Mountain that time, Both of them knew about the secret relationship between Miss and Tan Gongzi, and judging from the fact that the Tan family didn't know about it until Tan Gongzi reported it to his father, these two people could be trusted, so the target I was waiting for was not only Tan Gongzi but the two of them. ”

In this way, I waited at the door of Tan's house for more than three months, Tan Gongzi did not see it, but Tan Bo and Tan Lang met a few times, but those few times they were accompanied by people, I didn't dare to easily come forward to recognize each other, but the so-called emperor did not live up to the painstaking people, and finally found an opportunity after a long time of waiting, one day Tan Bo took people out to purchase things, and found that something was left at home on the way, and the people who followed were instructed by Tan Bo to go home to pick it up, I was able to come out to meet him, after more than a year, he still remembered me, Seeing that I was holding a child and dressed as an ordinary village woman, Uncle Tan was startled, and hurriedly led me to a teahouse to sit down, and asked me why I was in Xi'an, if there was something wrong with Miss Tan, I only knew, but it turned out that the Jiang family kept the death of Miss Tan very strictly, so that she died for more than ten months, and even the people of the Tan family did not know.

", Listening to me tell me about Miss's death in childbirth, and knowing that the child I was holding in my arms was Tan Gongzi's flesh and blood, Tan Bo was even more surprised, and he was full of tears, he was a person who grew up watching Tan Gongzi grow up, and the pain suffered by Tan Gongzi and Miss was also very uncomfortable in his eyes."

After crying for a while, I asked him about Tan Gongzi's situation and why he hadn't even left the door once for more than three months. Uncle Tan sighed, and then told me, but it turned out that when the two families of Tan Jiang joined forces to arrest the two of them, Tan Gongzi accidentally fell from the galloping carriage in order to protect the young lady, and unfortunately his head fell on a stone and fainted.
