Chapter 036: Uninvited Guest
"Remember," the guard said, "once it was said that the Luoyang Flower Festival, how good the flowers of the Luo family were, the emperor asked who brought the flowers to the battle of the Luo family, and Tang Zhen replied that it was the second master of the Luo family at that time, and the emperor didn't say anything."
"The second time I asked He Zhen and Lord He's social circle in Luoyang back then, and I didn't ask more, it was Tang Zhen who listened to what the emperor said."
Lu Zhan paused, turned his head and said to Chonghua: "Go back to the Ministry of Officials to find out what happened to this Luo family?" ”
After he had finished speaking, he asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
The guard shook his head: "The rest is all about talking about where to go." ”
Lu Zhan stared at the back of the guard's head and took a deep breath.
It seems that the emperor really drank tea with people for half the night and chatted for half the night. Then why did he go to Xu Luo to steal the letter in private? What did the emperor learn from Tang Zhen?
Thinking of this, he looked in front of him again: "This Tang Zhen has never been to Luoyang, how can he talk to the emperor about the customs of Luoyang for so long?" ”
This subordinate was also very puzzled, and when talking about Luoyang, Tang Zhen himself obviously paused, and later said that he had dealt with many Luoyang people. I was suspicious of this, but the emperor didn't ask him. ”
Lu Zhan groaned, then waved his hand and let him go down.
Chonghua waited for the guards to come out of the threshold before coming forward: "This Tang Zhen seems to be very familiar with Luoyang, He Zhen mentioned Tang Zhen in the letter, and the two sides already know each other." ”
Lu Zhan agreed with this statement: "The information I found out earlier is that Tang Zhen arrived at the He family after He Zhen returned to Beijing, and he has not been out of the capital for more than ten years, so you can check whether he has been to Luoyang before, and when did he and He Zhen meet." ”
Heavy jaw head.
"That's right," Lu Zhan spoke again when Chonghua was about to turn around: "Let you go around He's house and inquire about the people who visited He's Mansion last night, have you found out what you want?" ”
"I've inquired about it once, and I haven't found anything."
Lu Zhan condensed his eyebrows and thought for a while: "Didn't you ask the beggars around?" ”
While the vendors are still closing their stalls, the homeless beggars have nowhere else to go.
Chonghua paused, and immediately said: "The prince reminded me very much!" I'll send someone! ”
……
Zheng Rong didn't know where he heard that the fruit and vegetable juice could be used to mix wine, and after mixing a full pot, Song Xiang tasted two sips in disbelief, and found that this time it was quite fragrant and sweet, so he followed her wishes.
The mother and daughter coaxed Song Lian to sleep, then fried a plate of meat and bones, fished a plate of braised phoenix feet, and then took a plate of tender cucumbers that hung on the vines, and the two of them chatted until the middle of the night.
The woman from the gate is really energetic. The next morning, Zheng Rong got up early again, made breakfast and went to the city.
Song Xiang sent Song Lian to eat and go to school, and he also carried half a basket of eggs, wrapped a few pieces of cured meat, plus some vegetables, and prepared to go out.
As soon as I got out of the yard, there was a sound of a car outside the door, and then the door was pushed open, and a person rushed in, shouting headlessly: "Sister Xiang!" At home?! Sister Xiang"
"Wang!"
The pear blossoms under the corridor rushed over like an arrow off the string.
Song Xiang looked intently, only to see Song Min in the dust, a pair of cloth shoes on his body, his robe was crooked, his expression was panicked, and he retreated outside the courtyard gate in a panic under the barking of pear blossoms.
Outside the gate of the courtyard, there were still You and Song Yu who were scolding and scolding with their burdens, and twelve-year-old Song Cheng was also carrying two big burdens, but he didn't say anything.
"What are you doing here?"
Song Xiang put down the basket and looked at them suspiciously.
"Get rid of this brute!" Song Min shook his feet at Lihua and said, "Second Uncle can't live at home, you can quickly borrow a few rooms for us to live in, let us avoid the limelight first!" ”
Song Xiang frowned: "What limelight to avoid?" ”
"We can't live in our house anymore!" You shook off the burden and stepped forward: "I don't know who passed it on, saying that the treasure of the Xu family is still in our hands!" Recently, there are always people who come to the door to inquire about the theft of the Xu family, and there are people wandering around outside the door in the middle of the day, and there are people who climb the wall in the middle of the night!
"Last night I got up in the middle of the night to drink water, and I saw someone standing in the yard, and I almost fainted!
"There's no place to live, get rid of this beast and make room for me!"
You said that he was going to enter the door.
Pear Blossom grabbed in front of Song Xiang and barked at her!
Song Xiang planned to go to the second room, originally wanted to see them, but he didn't expect that after a few days, they would fall into such a situation!
But You's words were good to listen to, she said: "Our place is not big, just enough for our family of three." Since the second uncle and aunt are here, it's okay to have a meal, but if you live, forgive me, the two rooms have long been separated, so you should find another place. ”
"What do you call that?! Your second uncle is just your father's own brother, we don't look for you, where can we find it? Besides, didn't we still handle your father's funeral back then? Otherwise, you expect the five-year-old Brother Lian to do it? You can't be too unconscionable! You Shi's voice was loud, and his voice had filled the courtyard.
"You're done!" Song Min scolded her: "Get out of the way!" ”
You was stopped, and the nest retreated behind him.
Song Min put on his shoes and said, "Sister Xiang, the second uncle didn't lie to you, we have been chewed up to death today."
"Our family is all scholars, where can we withstand this battle, if we are not desperate, we will not drag our family to look for you. You will divide me into several rooms for a while, and when the limelight is over, I will naturally leave. ”
Song Xiang looked at You's and saw her red eyes and trembling body, which was unexpected.
They will drag the family to find her head, and there is no doubt that something will happen.
It's just a family of four in the second room, and they only have 30 acres of land next door to Heshan Village. In addition, there is no business to make money, and the family property distributed to them by the old lady in the early years has already been almost defeated by the You family.
Naturally, Song Min can make a few bucks even if he goes to be Xixi, but if Xu Luo is determined to suppress Song Min, no one in Xingping County will dare to invite him. If you live, how long will you have to live?
"Well, this is ten taels of silver, even if it is for us to chew!" Seeing that she didn't say anything, Song Min hurriedly took out a few more pieces of silver from the baggage, "You also know that when your father was alive, our brother's relationship was always excellent......
At this point, there is a bit of a whispering meaning.
Song Min's appearance is six or seven points similar to Song Yu, and the older he gets, the more similar he becomes, but the temperament of him and Song Yu is very different, Song Min is lazy and unmotivated.
He didn't care about being partial, and later became a relative, You's father advocated letting Song Min go to the county government, and he just happened to go. Song Yu was angry with him for a while because of this.
Although Song Minhun was muddy, he also let the You family mess around, but on the night Song Yu died, he also cried sincerely in front of the hospital bed and watched him all night.
Afterwards, he was also busy with the aftermath of his brother, and handled his brother's funeral properly.
The You family stared at the family property assigned to the long house all day long, but at that time, Song Yu never let her take advantage of the fire to rob.
Although the You family has not come to the village in the past two years, Song Min will still come to see them every once in a while.
Although it is inevitable to take away one or two chickens, a basket and a half basket of eggs, or radishes and cabbage in the field, it is still different when there is a male relative walking around in the family. At least in the past three years, there are still few people who dare to covet Zheng Rong and want to beat her idea.
Song Xiang took the silver and took two steps out of the way: "Come in first." ”
