Chapter 40 Saving to be recognized
Following.
Huo Huaiding entered the Lin'an Mansion with his hands behind his back.
Wen Zifu was burying his head in sorting out the case file, and when he heard the movement, he hurriedly got up and saluted.
Huo Huaiding said "hard work".
The others hadn't arrived yet, Huo Huaiding drank tea to wake up, and said, "That nephew in the Wentong prefect's mansion is an interesting person.
Wen Zifu was slightly surprised and raised his eyes to look at Huo Huaiding.
He made calculations for a long time yesterday, concluded the identity of the "nephew", and estimated that Wen Yan was familiar with the other party, and after coming out of the Shunping Bo Mansion, he made a statement to test Huo Huaiding.
At that time, Huo Huaiding was sloppy with him and didn't want to say much.
Why did you mention it yourself today?
Wen Zifu thought for a while and said, "This is also now, when she is mentioned, she will be said to be the girl of our 'Wen family'."
In the past, everyone said that it was the granddaughter of Mrs. Xia.
Don't be afraid to call adults laughs, Xiaguan used to always have some taste, obviously my sister is the sister of our family, and the Ding'an Hou Mansion is not unavailable, how can you say that the Xia family.
These days, Xia Guan has straightened out a little.
After being taught by Mrs. Xia and being in the palace for many years, my sister's temperament, behavior, and especially courage are really a lot higher.
Not to mention her sisters, she is calm and calm when she encounters things, and even the inner son of the lower official is far inferior to her. ”
Huo Huaiding crossed his arms and laughed: "Whose family, isn't it all her?" ”
Wen Zifu also laughed, laughed, and sighed again: "It's also the incompetence of the lower officials as an elder, and when the family encounters such a bloody case, I have to worry about my sister." ”
Huo Huaiding said: "It's all a family, and they have a strong contribution." Wen Tongzhi has also been working hard recently, after the official arrived in Lin'an, Li Zhifu proposed to catch the wind and wash the dust, but it was delayed, so it was better to find a restaurant nearby tonight, and simply eat two glasses, not only to catch the wind, but also to relax. ”
Without waiting for Wen Zifu to respond, Governor Li came in from outside, listened for half a while, and nodded busily.
Patting the patrol and pressing the sycophants, it is a matter of course, there were not many opportunities before, how could Huo Huaiding open his mouth at this time.
After coming and going, it was decided.
In the evening, the autumn wind rains.
It's not a hassle because the place is close.
Governor Li invited Huo Huaiding to sit down, rubbed his hands and said: "This time it's simpler, next time I will go to Xizi Lake, the scenery is good, and I will practice it for adults." ”
Huo Huaiding laughed, beckoned the store to add two more pots of hot wine, and went to the cold first.
When the hot wine was delivered, he took the initiative to fill it up with Governor Li, who was sitting beside him.
Li Zhifu was so flattered that the chopsticks didn't move a few times, and the wine was drunk three times first.
Huo Huaiding poured another lamp, and while he poured it, he was still amused.
As the right deputy of the Imperial Palace, and there is an aunt named Concubine and close to the Queen Mother, Huo Huaiding rarely entertains the wine bureau, even if he goes, he is flattered by the people below, how can he take the initiative to pour alcohol into people?
It is still a local prefect.
Speaking out, how many people's jaws were shocked.
Because of Mrs. Xia, Huo Huaiding had some good feelings for Wen Yan from the elders to the juniors, but this was not enough for him to help set up the situation.
But there is no way, who told Huo Yixiao to speak.
Huo Huaiding didn't know what Huo Yixiao and Wen Yan were all about, but Huo Yixiao could throw Ji Yan into the water because of Wen Yan, at the very least, the two had to be friends, right?
Huo Yixiao is in a delicate situation in the palace, and if he can get a friend, Huo Huaiding is happy for him.
Of course, I agreed without saying a word.
Just a few drinks.
Yes, Xuan Zai also secretly told him that the silver that Wen Yan fished out of the prison was raised by Huo Yixiao......
In the past two nights, Huo Yixiao and Wen Yan went on a cruise on West Lake.
Xuan Zai's words are conclusive, and the relationship between the two is not ordinary.
Huo Huaiding thinks that he can only listen to half of his stupid son's words, but what if?
Maybe not now, who can't bet on the future.
For Huo Yixiao's sake, if he drinks a few more glasses, that's fine!
"Come on, come on," Huo Huaiding beckoned to the shopkeeper, "two more pots." ”
The private room on the side opens a thin crack in the door.
Huo Yixuan watched Xiao Er bring the wine in again, turned his head and asked, "What about Governor Li, how is the amount of wine?" ”
Where does Huo Yixiao know.
Wen Yan shook his head.
She didn't know.
Huo Yixuan sighed: "I feel a little hanging." ”
Wen Yan was puzzled, and asked Huo Yixiao with his eyes.
Huo Yixiao coughed lightly: "Uncle's alcohol consumption may be a little weak. ”
Wen Yan: "......"
She counted back and forth several times, but she missed this one!
In her previous life, when she married into the Huo family, Huo Huaiding rarely drank alcohol during the banquet.
He was not in good health at the time, and the imperial doctor recommended that he maintain his health, two glasses of medicinal wine a day, and no longer use it.
So much so that Wen Yan relived his life, but he didn't know the depth of this uncle's drinking.
Blame her for this, I didn't expect Huo Huaiding to be very drinkable, and I also wanted to leak a lot of Governor Li's interest.
Wen Yan had no choice but to ask again: "Is my uncle drunk?" ”
Huo Yixuan asked his relatives to take a sneak peek, and the situation was not optimistic.
Wen Yan couldn't give up halfway, his thoughts turned quickly, he called the old lady over, and explained in a low voice: "Go back to the house, let Mama Huang invite the third uncle to come, and ......"
The old lady nodded violently.
Soon, Wen Zilan arrived.
He only returned to Lin'an Mansion yesterday.
Shangxiang had an accident, and the family went to Mingzhou to report the news as soon as possible, but Mingzhou was also busy in order to patrol the affairs of Jiangnan, and Wen Zilan went to the county government under his jurisdiction.
came and went, and there was a delay on the road for several days.
When Wen Zilan returned to the Ding'an Hou Mansion, Mrs. Gui was crazy and upside down, An was unconscious, and Wen Yuan fell out with her in-laws and moved back to her parents' house, which was really a mess.
Wen Zilan had the heart to discuss with Wen Zifu, but Wen Zifu was too busy, and he almost slept in the yamen for the past few days, so Wen Zilan didn't come to disturb.
Mama Huang just handed over a message to him, only asking him to find various reasons to pour wine into Governor Li's mansion, Wen Zilan didn't know the deep meaning, but he didn't care about getting to the bottom of it, so he went to the banquet first.
Xiao Er opened the door of the private room for him.
As soon as Wen Zilan entered, the smell of wine rushed to his head.
Sitting in the first place must be Huo Huaiding.
Wen Zilan took a look and was almost drunk.
Look at his brother again......
My own brother, it's clear, don't look at Wen Zifu sitting upright, it's not far from being drunk and talking nonsense.
On the contrary, it was Governor Li, his face was flushed, and the more he drank, the more energetic he became.
Wen Zilan took a wine cup and began to talk about the scene.
What prefect has taken care of his brother over the years, what prefect has a lot of admiration, what family and uncle's affairs have caused trouble to adults, what mother and inner son are injured, and adults must find out the murderer......
Whatever reason can be found, all the ones have been used.
Governor Li's mansion was on the rise, and someone toasted and did not refuse, and drank it again and again.
Seeing that the people at the table were drunk and confused, Governor Li stood up and walked out.
He had to be convenient, drank too much, and panicked.
The door next door also opened.
Wen Yan glanced at Governor Li, who was shaking downstairs, and slowly followed.
There is rain floating outside, very small, and the wind blows on people, which is still a little cool.
Governor Li was blown and sneezed.
Wen Yan was also a little cold, and tightened the cloak on his body.
In the next moment, a cloak fell on her, heavy.
Wen Yan was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at his side.
Huo Yixiao followed and said lightly: "Wrap it tightly, so that people can recognize it." ”
