What happened yesterday in the Taoist temple? Wen couldn't tell.

Wen Xuyou and his wife only heard a little rumor, and they didn't know much about the specific details. But the Zhao family is a famous family in Shilin, and Wen Xuyou is a class and a circle. There was a turmoil on the Zhao family's side, and in the entire Jinling City Shilin circle, there would definitely be a topic.

Wen Xuyou noticed that the speed at which the rumors spread was a little too fast. What happened yesterday is still not a very glorious thing, but today it actually spread to the court and the temple, which is a bit abnormal. With the Zhao family's reputation among the government and the opposition, it has not been able to stop the spread of rumors, nor has it been able to slow down the speed of the spread of rumors, and there must be something behind it. In connection with recent rumors, it has been rumored that the daughter of the Zhao family is likely to become the crown princess of the East Palace, and behind the rumors outside, there may be many high-ranking families secretly stirring up. This means that the city of Jinling will not be peaceful again.

This kind of thing has little to do with Wen Xuyou's husband and wife, so they just need to be a melon-eating audience. It's just that Mrs. Wen Xuyou heard others talk about it, and knew that the women and children of the Xie family also went to the Taoist temple yesterday, and Xie Pu, the pillar of their family, was not in the capital at the moment, and offended the Cao family a few days ago, for fear that they would be affected by the pond fish, so they came over to remind them.

Anyway, the Xie family is about to leave Beijing, as long as they don't meddle in things that shouldn't be taken care of, say things that shouldn't be said, and the old lady Xie and the two little girls who stayed in Beijing also set a low schedule and don't get involved in anything, they shouldn't have any trouble.

When Wen Shi said this, he couldn't help but worry: "Why is it so unlucky?" We're just going to see a play. If the old lady is interested, we will accompany her on a trip. The Zhao family is also a family with a good reputation, and we have no old grudges with the Xie family, and there are also former acquaintances of our family who went to the Taoist temple yesterday. Your brothers also said that they met friends and had a great time. It took less than a day before something happened, and I really didn't know what to say. ”

Xie Jinzhi asked Wen: "What happened to the Zhao family in that Taoist temple?" ”

Wen could only give a vague answer: "Your Aunt Wen said that it seems that in the house of the person who went to the theater, there was a private meeting between a female family member and a man, and it was broken by the Zhao family, and it was shouted, so that people could see the joke." Later, because Miss Zhao left early and did not go with the elders, some people chewed her tongue and said that she was the one who had a private meeting with someone, which is why the Zhao family made such a fuss. But anyone with a discerning eye knows that those words are slander. The Zhao family caught the men and women of the private meeting yesterday, and it had nothing to do with Miss Zhao, so she left earlier, just because Miss Zhao was unwell. ”

Xie Xianzhi couldn't help but be surprised: "How could the Zhao family be so careless?" Even if you really break through this kind of ugly thing, there is no need to shout it on the spot?! "Yesterday was the home of the Zhao family, and this kind of ugly thing happened, doesn't it show that the Zhao family's supervision is not effective, so that outsiders can take advantage of it? The Zhao family has been a scholarly and famous eunuch for generations, and has always been known for its upright and rigorous family style, and it has a bad reputation to be related to this kind of scandalous thing, not to mention that Miss Zhao is about to become the crown princess, which is the most taboo time for this kind of thing.

It stands to reason that the Zhao family should not have made this matter public at that time, even if they took the men and women of the private meeting, they only needed to privately notify them to come to the family to pick up people. The other party will also owe the Zhao family a favor, and he is full of gratitude to the Zhao family for keeping it a secret for them and maintaining the reputation of the two of them. As for what to do with the man and woman, it was a matter of household affairs in their respective homes.

The people who went to the Taoist temple yesterday were not ordinary people, but high-ranking officials and nobles, and relatives of the emperor. The Xie family was sent to the door by themselves, and there were also three products, and there was also the backer of King Yan behind him. Then there is Xie Yinghui's ex-girlfriend, a middle- and upper-class official eunuch, who is attached to the Cao family behind him. Due to the death of Ping Nanbo and the avoidance of the king's suspicion, the Cao family has recently been inconvenient to go out to socialize with powerful people, which requires the vassal family to come forward. It can be said that the Zhao family will not easily offend any of the guests in the Taoist temple yesterday before Miss Zhao really becomes the crown princess. They invited people to befriend these families and clear the way for their daughters to enter the palace.

However, the people of the Zhao family just poked the ugly thing out, no matter which family the man and woman belonged to, the Zhao family would offend their family because of this, and maybe the connections behind them, which was too irrational.

Not to mention that Xie Xianzhi didn't understand, Xie Jinzhi and Xie Huizhi also felt that the Zhao family's approach was very strange. Xie Jinzhi had an idea: "Do the arrested men and women have grievances with the Zhao family?" Or did you offend the Zhao family too hard yesterday? ”

Xie Mulin didn't think about it so much because she didn't know the twists and turns of these big families before, she just asked with some curiosity: "Who is the pair of men and women who caught the private meeting?" Where did you catch it? She remembered the mysterious person in the bamboo house who always refused to show up, could it be Xiao Rui who was caught by the Zhao family?

Wen only heard Mrs. Wen Xuyou mention a name: "I heard that the man is the son of Qishan Bofu." Therefore, yesterday, when Qishan Bo got the letter, he rode over and made a fuss with the Zhao family. It was because he was clamoring to take his son away that the news reached the ears of the guests. ”

Xie Xianzhi suddenly realized: "That's it." We didn't find anything happened in the view until we left yesterday, presumably the Zhao family suppressed the situation and didn't make a noise, so we didn't know about it. But when we left, Qi Shanbo arrived and quarreled with the Zhao family, which allowed the news to spread. This explanation made him feel a lot more relieved, otherwise the Zhao family, whom he had always revered, would have acted too stupidly and ruined his favor. It doesn't matter if you are a man, you have always had a reputation as a fool in the elite circle of the capital.

Xie Huizhi was a little eager to try: "I don't know which son of Qishan Bofu was arrested?" I heard that the eldest son has never been successful, but the second son has always been a bit smart and virtuous. But the sons and brothers I knew in the past all said that Dong Lao Er was pretending, but in fact, he didn't have any real skills at all, he just pretended to be, and he didn't cheat his brother lightly. If it was his brother who was arrested this time, he would not let go of such a good opportunity. He followed his mother and cousin yesterday, right? His cousin is also the second grandmother of the Yongning Eldest Princess's Mansion. Could it be that the rumors spread outside this time are all his doing? In order to pit his brother, he didn't even care about the face of the Zhao family, and a fool like him is also called smart? ”

Xie Mulin also secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the man who was arrested was not Xiao Rui, and immediately reacted that she and that person were just unknown people and had met three times. Is the other party unlucky, and what does it have to do with her?

Xie Mulin shook his head and said, "I remember that when I met Xiao Ergongzi in the bamboo house, he mentioned that the eldest son of Qishan Bofu was in the house, because he was angry with his stepmother and brother, he was losing his temper, and he also scared the old lady and the third sister. Since Qi Shanbo's eldest son is with Xiao Ergongzi, most of the people who have that private meeting are someone else, right? ”

Xie Huizhi smiled when he heard this: "If it is Dong Er who is arrested, then it will be even better to watch!" ”

Xie Jinzhi knocked on his head: "What are you so excited about?" If you want to inquire, you can also go to someone, but our family is leaving in two days, and you still have something to do, so why bother bothering about it? ”

He turned his head to look at Wen again: "Mother, this matter has little to do with our family. We can ask someone to inquire about the inside story, just know some taboos, and don't need to know too much. It's just that I need to remind the old lady and the eldest sister and the third sister to let them go out less for the time being, and don't get involved in other people's private discussions, so as not to cause trouble at home. ”

Wen nodded hurriedly: "That's very true." I'll go to the Pearl Bridge tomorrow and tell the old lady. ”

Xie Mulin thought thoughtfully: "The old lady shouldn't have known about this a long time ago, right?" She has been absent-minded today, could it be that it was for this sake? ”
