As soon as these words came out, the hall was silent for a moment.

The old lady crossed the Buddha beads in her hand, and after a while, a sharp edge quickly crossed her eyes, and she looked at Aunt Zhao who was kneeling on the ground, and her face sank terribly.

"Drag out, confinement. Her disposition is up to you lords to decide. ”

Aunt Zhao's lips trembled, and the mask that pretended to be impeccable completely collapsed for a while, she screamed and dodged, "Who dares to tie me up!" I'm my eldest brother's mother! ”

Several of the servants were very eye-catching, and looked at her mouth with a silk handkerchief, and the other simply struck the person unconscious, and dragged her out of the door very quickly, without hindering the old lady's eyes.

"Okay, come here."

The old lady beckoned to her, "How did you find out about this?" ”

Song Yansheng looked at the eldest lady sitting on the side, and remained silent, "I guessed casually, but I didn't expect it to be guessed as soon as I guessed." ”

Feng Shi smiled when he heard this, got up with low eyebrows, and quickly asked Fuli to retreat. When Aunt Zhao was dragged down, her purpose had already been achieved.

The people gathered in Shunchun Hall were almost gone, and the old lady held her forehead, and reached out with one hand to pinch Song Yansheng's cheek, "Okay, everyone is gone, can you say it?" ”

She sat next to her, gathered her clothes, frowned slightly, and said, "Grandmother doesn't know, I once bumped into Zhao eavesdropping outside the study." I was in the house that day, and what my grandfather and uncle were talking about was the salt introduction case in the Jianghuai area. I expected that the news was heard by the Zhao family and passed on to the people behind her. Before today's interrogation, the housekeeper gave me a thorough explanation, saying that the Zhao family often secretly submitted secret letters, and the most recent time he noticed it, it was transmitted to Lin'an Mansion. Because there was a flood over there, I remember it very clearly. ”

It goes without saying who there is in Lin'an Mansion now. The old lady's face was ugly, "I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't expect that there was a hidden nail hidden in the house, and I have to tell your grandfather about this matter." ”

Whether the Zhao family has been working for that side since the beginning of the fight, or whether they were bribed halfway, it is unknown, and they have to be pried out of the interrogation of Aunt Zhao. However, Song Yansheng felt that it was more likely to be bought halfway. It has been several years since the Zhao family entered the palace, and the third son of the emperor at that time was fledgling, and it was impossible for him to stretch his hand so long as he does now.

Aunt Zhao was arrested and imprisoned, and it is estimated that she will not be able to make any waves. Song Yansheng was uneasy in his heart, and couldn't help but call Hengbo, "You go and see if the person sent has come back, why hasn't there been any movement after so long?" ”

The old lady was so shrewd, she pointed her fingers and looked at her, "Are you worried that the empty red badge sent out will be used by that side and will be detrimental to your uncle?" ”

Song Yan sighed, "I heard my grandfather say that night, the two Huaiyan are unimaginably involved. This matter was secretly investigated, but it was heard by the Zhao family again. If this matter is revealed, will those interest groups still be able to spare the uncle? I must try to shut him up as much as I can. Uncle he ......"

Song Zhi is a stiff temper, and those who are familiar with him know it. If you want to keep him from speaking, there is only one way to shut him up forever.

I was worried when I suddenly heard a series of footsteps outside the hall. Yokoba ran over panting, followed by the Fuding she had sent out. This person was sent to the government office to deliver news to Song Zhi before the interrogation, and after coming in, she replied with a confused face, "The people from the official office said that the eldest master has already returned to the house." ”

Song Yansheng's eyes tightened, and the old lady suddenly slapped the case, "Confused things!" After she reprimanded, she pulled up the six girls next to her, she couldn't care about these anymore, and hurriedly walked to the study in the back garden. Song Yansheng was also anxious, before the letter of this early warning was delivered, something happened to the person.

The old man listened to the whole thing, his face was not good, he exhaled slowly, and asked, "What about the eldest brother?" ”

Song Yansheng looked at him on the chair, and his heart jumped.

"Brother Chang and the boss went out of the house together, this ......" The old lady now hates Aunt Zhao to death in her heart, and these pickled things are all done by her, and all the big and small ones have fallen into it.

"It must be the handiwork of the merchants in the city. Apart from them, who can carry two people in front of everyone, one is still an official of the imperial court? Song Yansheng gritted his teeth, "They are all the three sons of the emperor and one party, doing things for him is a relationship of shared interests, for them, the salt case in Jiangnan will never see the light of day, which is related to their net worth and life." ”

The empty official document with the official seal must have been obtained by the third son of the emperor of Lin'an Mansion who got the secret report of Concubine Zhao and took advantage of the situation to forge a completed report, as long as it is shown to the merchants below, it can encourage these people in Yangzhou to take down Song Zhi. After all, no one wants to see their deeds one day be played on a piece of paper, and then it will be all over.

The whole family was confined to a great panic. Although generally speaking, no one dares to kill the officials of the imperial court, but the officialdom in Jiangnan is deep and dark, and the interests of officials and businessmen are entangled. Besides, these black-hearted big salt merchants, once they threaten their own interests, what do they dare not do.

And at this time, suddenly an unexpected thing happened.

It has been half a month since the disappearance of Song Zhi's father and son, and Song Yansheng went to the garden several times during the period, but there was no one in it, leaving only the sound of falling leaves in the garden. An autumn rain and a cold, Song Yansheng wrapped a long cloak, ready to go to the garden again. When she was pushing the door open, she was stunned.

Duan Xun held a bamboo umbrella alone, draped in a red brocade thin coat, in the autumn rain, dazzling and amazing. He was a little taller, his black hair was tied up, and his face was unprecedented. She silently looked at Ling Ran's phoenix eyes that were looking over, and lost her words.

"Six girls."

He beckoned, showing a slight smile, "I'm stunned, I've been waiting for you for a while." ”

Song Yansheng watched him take a few steps closer, pacing leisurely from under the shadow of the tree, the red flickering, revealing a pair of snow-white sheepskin boots. He came with an umbrella in the rain, walked in front of her, the bamboo umbrella was slightly raised, revealing the cold white complexion lined with red clothes, from the exposed neck to the smiling face, everything was exquisite and beautiful.

After a few days of not seeing him, he seems to have changed a little. Not only in terms of physiognomy, but also in temperament. Song Yansheng couldn't speak, but he subconsciously took a step back.

This was an unconscious action, she reacted and suddenly felt rude, and then looked at the Sixth Highness who was close to her, and showed a disguised smile, "This...... How could His Highness be here? ”

"You're going out, where are you going?" He still smiled, even a little more gentlely.

Song Yansheng looked at him and pursed his lips, not believing that he couldn't guess where she was going out at this juncture.

Duan Xun deliberately teased, and then looked at her taut bun face, and most of the unpleasantness caused by her retreating was dispersed. The sixth girl didn't grow tall, but she only reached his chest, and she had to raise her little face when she spoke. As soon as he lifted it like this, he clearly saw a faint layer of sand and blue under her eyes, and couldn't help frowning and pointing at her eyes, "Didn't you sleep well?" ”

She stood under the eaves, stiffly shaking her head.

"Lin Fu reminded you when he was in the past, but you didn't listen." He exhaled lightly, "Jianghuai Yan's case has been reached...... Holy Listening. ”

Song Yansheng's eyes widened suddenly, "...... You're the one who played it? ”

"Not exactly, I just pushed." Duan Xun held an umbrella and smiled, and in the rain splashing, the corner of his clothes moved slightly and took a step back. Song Yansheng listened to his invitation, "The garden has been cleaned up, do you want the six girls to go and drink tea?" ”

When I left the house, the rain gradually decreased, and some white light faintly broke through the sky. Hengbo put away the umbrella and helped her into the carriage, while he stayed outside the carriage. Duan Xun sat in a compartment with her, and when the two faced each other, Song Yansheng saw him glance at the door of the mansion, and looked at himself meaningfully and said: "This Jiangnan Song Mansion is really lively." ”

She was not surprised that Duan Xun knew about many bad things in the house recently, she followed him all the way, and also wanted to find out the whereabouts of the uncle and Song Meichang from him. After the incident, she thought about it, there was no one in Yangzhou City who could get the news, except for him, and she might not be able to find a second trustworthy person.

Then the question arises, why is it him? Song Yansheng lifted his chin, raised his eyes to look at him, and inadvertently asked the question buried deep in his heart, "Your Highness, do you also want to ascend to that position?" ”

Duan Xun was casually looking out the window, and immediately turned his head when she asked, stared at her and asked funny: "What did I do to make you think I don't want to?" ”

Song Yansheng carefully inspected him a few times, shook his head and said, "You don't look like someone who wants that golden chair." ”

Duan Xun was amused by her: "It's said that it's a golden chair, who doesn't want it?" ”

Song Yansheng pursed his lips, knowing that he couldn't get anything out of him, so he didn't bother anymore, "I asked a stupid question." She suddenly changed her words, and Duan Xun knew that her heart was not dead. The girl held her chubby chin, supported a face like a snow ball, and said, "Your Royal Highness is not like the third son of the emperor, I hope you can sit on the golden chair." ”

No one dared to say that. You girl, you're getting bolder. ”

She curled her lips and laughed, "It's good that Hengbo is outside, otherwise I would have been scared to death." Your Highness, I have only said these words to you. ”

She raised her eyebrows and added, "The third prince always calculates my family, and everyone hates it." ”

Duan Xun's face was ordinary, but no one knew the movement in his heart, and he was very comfortable. He nodded and thought so, and replied to her: "You have a good eye, compare him with me." ”

“……”

When she arrived at the garden, Song Yansheng got out of the carriage, sneezed violently, and Hengbo wrapped her cloak tightly, and said worriedly: "The weather has been wet and cold these days, so the girl should be careful." ”

Song Yansheng nodded, seeing that Geyuan finally became popular today. Yiyun and Jingyun both answered at the door, and as soon as she landed, she felt something fall heavily on her shoulder, heavy, and she subconsciously looked down.
