Chapter 123: Analysis
After listening to the news that his brothers inquired about, Xie Mulin's first reaction was: "So who is the woman who fornicated with Dong Huijie in Guanzhong?" ”
The person who told the Xie family brothers the information, even if they told the details of how Dong Huijie was caught, the wife of the Zhao family was frightened, the mansion of the eldest princess of Yongning, how the Zhao family and Qishanbo were torn, and so on, they never revealed who the heroine of the story was. Or is it ...... Even they don't know who that person is.
Xie Huizhi said on the side: "As soon as I heard it, I knew that this lady's identity was not ordinary, most of them had a very prominent family background, and even the Zhao family did not dare to provoke easily, so as soon as the Zhao family's housewife found out who the other party was, she immediately sent the person away first." Dong Huijie is different, he is just the second son of Bofu, and he doesn't have much real power in the family, so the Zhao family can deduct it if they want to, and they don't care if they hurt people. ”
Xie Jinzhi thought for a while and said: "Qishan Bofu can't be said to have no powerful position, their family has some prestige in the army, and Mrs. Qishan Bo has a maiden niece who is the second daughter-in-law of the eldest princess of Yongning. Originally, his family was indeed powerful, but unfortunately Qishanbo was confused. Ma Ergongzi would go over at that time, obviously it was impossible to really watch the excitement, most likely because he heard the news and wanted to go over to relieve his wife's cousin. But Qishanbo knocked people into injuries, and the two sides fought against each other, and the momentum that could have been relied on was gone, and it was pressed on their heads in turn. The Dong family suffered by themselves, and they deserved it. ”
This point made Xie Mulin even more incomprehensible, the Yongning Eldest Princess's Mansion was obviously an important backer of the Qishan Bo Mansion, and the people of the Qishan Bo Mansion were able to appear in the list of the Zhao family's guests yesterday, and it was clear that they relied on the face of the Yongning Eldest Princess's Mansion, otherwise the Zhao family was obviously a famous Shilin family, a civil official family, what would a powerful Jiangmen noble family do? Xie Mulin inquired about the identity of the guests in the Guanzhong yesterday, and there was only one military general in the Qishan Bofu - Xiao Rui followed Dong Huiwu and also had a foreign relative background - the rest were either relatives of the emperor or civil officials from Jinshi, and the Dong family was obviously out of place.
Under such a premise, the road in the Taoist temple is wide and the yard is also open, how stupid should Qishanbo be to insist on bumping into Ma Ergongzi? He has no other way to go? And even if you really bump into it, apologize afterwards and make enough gestures to make the victim angry, isn't it? The Zhao family obviously can't help Qishanbo, and it is not difficult for him to protect his son. But he was also reckless and rude to Ma Ergongzi, which led to the latter asking someone to forcibly escort Dong Huijie away, and Qishanbo had no choice but to sprinkle his anger on the eldest son. His wife also couldn't tell the difference, what were she doing with the son left by Yuan Pei at this time? Isn't it more important to apologize to Ma Ergongzi and the Zhao family first, so that they can be discouraged and released?
The Dong family's family of three is simply stupid.
Because of the stupid operation of the Qishanbo family, which made Xie Mulin puzzled, he could only guess: "Is the second son of Ma and his wife not in harmony?" Or is he not on good terms with the in-laws of Qishan Bofu? Then he went to the scene to watch, maybe he really watched the excitement, not to save people. And Qishanbo also knew this, so he didn't expect to ask the other party for help? ”
However, Xie Xianzhi immediately questioned: "Ma Ergongzi refused to spare Qishanbo's father and son, why didn't Ma Er's grandmother come forward to intercede at this time?" Her relationship with Qishan Bofu must be very good, otherwise she would not have specially brought Mrs. Qishan Bo and Dong Huijie over to watch the play, and even Dong Huiwu brought it. ”
Xie Xianzhi, Xie Jinzhi, Xie Mulin and Xie Huizhi looked at each other, and the four siblings had a conjecture at the same time, and they were even more stunned.
Could it be that it is his cousin who has an affair with Dong Huijie, and Ma's second grandmother Bai can't do it? !
If this is the case, then it is no wonder that Ma Ergongzi will go to the scene of the rape to find Dong Huijie's bad luck, and he also got into trouble with Qishanbo and his wife. The eldest princess of Yongning, as well as the queen mother and queen in the palace, did not save face for the Dong and Bai families at all, because the Bai family slapped the royal family in the face heavily. Although the Zhao family is the "hero" of catching traitors and revealing secrets, because they did not announce the identity of the Bai family on the spot, they saved the face of the mother and son of the eldest princess of Yongning, so they can be appreciated by the royal family in promoting Miss Zhao to become the crown princess.
At this time, even if there are rumors that Miss Zhao is the party to the fornication incident, the royal family will not care, because they know what is going on. In a sense, Miss Zhao is the one who sacrificed herself to protect the royal reputation, right? As long as the Zhao family does not disclose the name of the Bai family, Empress Cao and the crown prince may dislike Miss Zhao's bad reputation, but the queen mother and the eldest princess of Yongning will definitely have pity for Miss Zhao and have a good impression of her.
After sorting out the whole thing, Xie Xianzhi couldn't help but sigh: "Those who take the opportunity to spread rumors and mistakenly think that they can fish in troubled waters, I'm afraid they don't know the truth at all...... Otherwise, they would never have spread the word all over the city. ”
Attacking Miss Zhao at this time will definitely not add bargaining chips for their daughter or granddaughter to fight for the position of crown princess, but is likely to cause the royal family's disgust. Because the palace and the eldest princess of Yongning will prefer to deal with this matter in a low-key manner at this time, rather than causing the outside world to talk about it. In case someone perceives the truth and leaks it out, how will Ma Ergongzi behave?
The husband of the eldest princess of Yongning, Ma Yuma, is a famous calligrapher and painter in this dynasty, although he also has a reputation for Jinshi, but he has no intention of career, and he is a rich idler with peace of mind. His eldest son inherited his father's talent for calligraphy, and he also traveled extensively, and he also liked to sponsor poor talents. This father and son are both quite famous in the Shilin circle of this dynasty.
But Ma Ergongzi is different, he is almost a gentleman, only better at home, he has a stricter family education, reads a little more, and doesn't dare to be a traitor, but he can't stand it at all. His means of communication are far less clever than those of his brothers, and he has a reputation for being straightforward, which offends many people. But with his background, he offended people between words, and how many people dared to deal with him?
Ma Yurong's temperament is also similar, if she wants to say anything, she just says it directly, and even the Cao family dares to scare her.
But once Ma Ergongzi has a reputation as a cuckold, those who he has offended must not laugh him to death? Even if he doesn't say it to his face, chewing his tongue behind his back is enough to force him to go out to meet people without the face.
Several children of the Ma family are the grandsons of the Queen Mother, the emperor's own nephews, and those who offended them, how could the Queen Mother and the emperor have a good relationship? That's it, you still want to compete for the position of crown princess? If you don't get excused for it, it's good.
After sorting out the whole thing, Xie Mulin even calmed down: "Sure enough, it was an immortal fight, and this matter has little to do with us." Not to mention that our family has long since left, we don't know what happened in the temple, and the palace will not be happy to let the rumors continue to spread. We just keep a low profile and don't pay attention to the rumors outside. ”
The three brothers all nodded in agreement, but Xie Xianzhi mentioned it again: "The old lady is only afraid that she is also worried about this matter, since we have found out the inside story, let's go over and talk to her old man, let her rest assured, right?" There is no need to mention the details, just tell her that she just doesn't do our family's business. ”
Everyone nodded in agreement, and the four brothers and sisters went to report to the Wen family again, and the Wen family was amazed, so he agreed to take them to Mrs. Xie to say goodbye to Mrs. Xie the next day. Early the day after tomorrow, they were about to leave for the docks, and the boat was scheduled to leave early in the morning, and they might not have time to say goodbye to Mrs. Xie again.
The next day, Wen took a group of juniors, including Wanqin, who had been grounded for a long time, to Pearl Bridge and asked to see Mrs. Xie. Unexpectedly, Xie Yingrong went out of the room and told them apologetically: "The old lady is not good, so she said that she didn't need to see her." When my wife and her siblings arrived at their hometown, they had to write a letter back to report their safety. ”
