Chapter 24: The Portrait Is Too Fierce

As soon as the carriage of Loufu left the Hou Mansion, Yongning Hou Xie Wenyun got the letter and rushed back from the Yamen in advance.

The daughter's face was ruddy, and there was even some meat on her face, so Xie Wenyun relieved her heart. Xie Wenyun and his wife were in front, and the maids surrounded Xie Jiarou to the old lady's residence in the North Courtyard.

The old lady was looking forward to her granddaughter's arrival.

The old lady's figure is still upright, and her dark green skirt is dignified and luxurious. As soon as she saw Jiarou enter the house, the old lady was full of smiles, "Three girls, let grandmother take a look at you." ”

Seeing her grandmother's kind face, Xie Jiarou was overjoyed and bowed slowly to her grandmother, "Jiajia is unfilial, which frightened grandmother." ”

When the old lady saw that her granddaughter was unharmed, the stone hanging in her heart fell to the ground. "Just come back, quick, hurry up and get in,...... Daughter-in-law, take the three girls in, let's rest alive! ”

"Mother, this?" Xu was a little surprised, and secretly glanced at his husband.

In the past few days, Xu's face has been haggard, and he has barely closed his eyes. When her daughter came home safely, Xu was happy, but she couldn't hide the tiredness on her face.

The old lady saw it all.

The old lady smiled, "Daughter-in-law, your mother and daughter must have a lot to say, and they won't be in my circle, you two will be more comfortable when you go back to your own courtyard, and we also want to say something considerate." ”

Xu was very ignorant, "Mother, what did the daughter-in-law do wrong?" ”

"No," the old lady smiled, turning to her son, "son, talk to your mother?" ”

"Yes, Mother."

Xie Wenyun knew that his mother had something to say, so he instructed his wife a few words. Xu responded and took his daughter back to Dongyuan.

When everyone retreated, the old lady asked: "Son, I have been anxious about you these days, my mother didn't dare to ask, tell me, why was the third girl plotted?" ”

Xie Wenyun told his mother about the matter, and the old lady was well-informed from Pingling Mansion, but she was also shocked to hear it, and felt that this matter was not simple.

"Miss Jade is gentle and beautiful, how could an assassin assassinate her?" The old lady couldn't help but worry about Yujiao, "Who did it to a girl?" At the feet of the Son of Heaven, it's too strange,...... Jingshi, it may be uneasy. ”

Xie Wenyun is steady and dignified, thinking about everything for the good, "Mother doesn't have to worry, who is Uncle Lou, how can he be slaughtered?" The murderer made such a big move, he would definitely leave clues, and the son thought that the murderer would be caught sooner or later. ”

"Son, it's not that my mother is worried. Who is Dingguo Gong? Daring to attack him is by no means an ordinary person, it must have been planned for a long time. ”

The old lady pondered for a moment, "A force in the shadows, powerful and nowhere to go. In the future, let's stay away from the building, and it is a while to be able to avoid it. ”

"Mother, what do you mean by that?"

"Our Hou Mansion is not as good as before,...... If you can't get yourself involved," the old lady raised her eyes and said, "Ni'er is favored by His Majesty in the palace, but she is also careful in her manners and does not dare to be careless. You are the pillar of Xie Mansion, the backing of Ni'er, and the prince's uncle, you must be considerate! Everything should be smooth. ”

Xie Guifei has favored the harem for more than ten years, and she can't stop how many people are blushing and how many pairs of eyes are staring, if something happens to the Xie family, won't it embarrass the concubine?

Xie Wenyun was taken aback, "What the mother said is extremely true, and the son owes it to consideration." ”

The old lady nodded slowly and instructed Xie Wenyun, "Ni'er will know about this matter sooner or later." Rather than hearing from elsewhere that it may be an addition, it is better for you to tell her yourself, lest she think too much, and that she may be at ease. ”

"Yes, my son understands!" Xie Wenyun arched his hand, "My son will enter the palace and inform the concubine." ”

……

When Miss Xie returned to the house, the Yongning Marquis Mansion had no blame, and Mrs. Wen was relieved and relieved. She and Yujiao took a car back to the mansion.

As soon as the carriage arrived at the door, it was blocked by a tight-fitting and narrow-sleeved city defense battalion soldier, who only said that he had urgent business to see his wife.

Mrs. Wen lifted the curtain and glanced at it, recognized it as the entourage of the young general of the city defense battalion that night, and nodded, "Please come into the courtyard and talk." ”

The carriage entered the courtyard, and Mrs. Wen looked up, but she didn't notice when she spoke, he was not alone, but also followed by an elderly gentleman.

Mrs. Wen raised her eyes and asked with a smile: "This little brother, why do you still bring this gentleman?" ”

"Madam, the little one, is acting on orders," Wumo lowered his eyes, very unconfident, "The painter has never seen the murderer, and he is afraid that the painting will not look like it, so he specially brought a portrait and asked the Aman girl to identify what was wrong, so that the painter immediately changed it." ”

Thoughtful so? Bringing the painter to finalize the portrait of the murderer, Mrs. Wen was a little surprised, this was the idea of Deputy Commander Nafei?

He was really, and he didn't feel that the city defense camp was a condescending place at all?

Mrs. Wen was relieved and waved her hand, "Aman, you can help this little brother." ”

"Yes, ma'am."

Ah Man stepped forward to take the portrait and looked at it, frowning instantly, "It's not like it,...... The man had a fishbone-like scar on his left eyebrow, and his face was not fierce, it was not like this, he looked like a thief. ”

“……”

Wumo's face twitched, girl, the painter has never seen anyone, and he is not allowed to paint like a thief in Jiangyang?

"This girl, please describe it in detail, old man, I'll draw another one." The painter in the green shirt had a good temper, he was not angry, and bowed carefully to Mrs. Wen, "Madam, the old man is brave, can you borrow the treasure ink of your mansion?" ”

Mrs. Wen nodded, "Aman, Mr. Haosheng said to draw the portrait as soon as possible." ”

Since Mrs. said this, how dare Aman disobey, so she took Wumo and the painter to the guest room, and the four treasures of the study, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, are all available.

"That person, not so dark, not so fierce." Ah Man looked at the portrait and said: "The facial features are okay, but the scar above the left eyebrow that is more than an inch long is very eye-catching." ”

"Are your facial features okay?"

The painter was stunned, "Girl, do you mean that the facial features are similar?" ”

"It's not like, it's not like ,...... I'm talking about that guy who looks okay," Ah Man was stunned for a moment, and paused slightly, "I mean, he's not bad-looking, not as vicious as you." ”

Alas, girls are all face-seeking.

"Girl, isn't it like that?" The painter's heart was broken, and he glanced at Wumo fiercely - little rabbit, what did you tell me?

The corners of Wumo's mouth twitched, blame me, I didn't see what that person looked like!

"Miss Man, can you say that, what is the shape of his mouth, what are his eyebrows? Lying silkworm eyebrows, sword eyebrows, thin eyebrows, or something else? ”

"This, this, it's a bit ,......" Ah Man opened his mouth, but he couldn't say it, and snorted: "I, I knew he looked like that, I don't know how to describe it." What can I do? ”

"Girl can't talk like that, haven't you seen him?" The painter smiled wryly.
