Chapter 133: Background Exposed

As Xiao Zhan expected, today's Zhu Liangxin really hates Xiao Zhan. If she still had any contempt for this fourth prince who looked like a jade before, now she didn't dare to underestimate Xiao Zhan.

"They're so nice. I also know that working together will kill my son! Thinking of this, Zhu Liangxin couldn't help but grit his teeth. She has always been proud, but she didn't expect to be cornered by the two descendants in the end, and had to use the method she despised the most on weekdays to save the prince's life.

In contrast, Mama Kong is much calmer. She clasped her hands in front of her chest, stood respectfully beside Zhu Liangxin, and calmly gave her advice, "Niangniang, the more times like this, the more we must be calm." To remain unchanged, should change. ”

"Bengong wants to, but my brother is so uncontrollable," said Zhu Liangxin, throwing aside the letter that was clipped to his fingertips, "As soon as things calmed down, he began to worry about his situation. In the final analysis, it's just that he feels sorry for the spies of the Zhu family who he has worked so hard to train. ”

"Uncle's worries are not unreasonable. Among the many princes now, only the crown prince and the four princes are still in the royal capital. ”

Speaking of Xiao Zhan, Zhu Liangxin only felt that a nameless fire rushed straight up, "He also deserves to fight with my Shuo'er?" ”

Mama Kong lowered her eyes and did not discuss this issue, but further said: "That Yuehua Building, the uncle is still helping to take care of it. At present, the sage still wants the Song family Langjun and Luo Jialangjun to thoroughly investigate the murder cases in the inner city...... Niangniang, look at it, but is there still a need to keep Yuehua Building. ”

"When they check, let them check. The saint has the mind of Bao Ashuo, but this palace is not worried about this," Zhu Liangxin pondered for a while, and finally waved his hand irritably: "Let's choose this time to deal with Yuehualou, it is inevitable that there is some desire to cover up, but it will make the saint unhappy." ”

Mama Kong sighed and said, "The slave maid has also thought about this problem, but she has never come up with a way to do both. But keeping Yuehualou is always a hidden danger. ”

"Then we'll talk about it later. If you are targeted, find someone to bear it at that time. Zhu Liangxin replied lazily.

Obviously, she didn't care about the lives of those people in Yuehua Tower.

……

Ah Jin went to Jewelry Alley early in the morning to look for Shen Molin, and as soon as the store opened, Shen Molin saw Ah Jin standing at the door.

"Big sister? You ......" Shen Molin looked at her with some surprise, first welcomed her into the house where he worked on weekdays, and then asked the little maid to prepare tea and snacks, and then asked, "Why did the eldest sister come here so early?" Ready for breakfast? ”

"Used. Your brother-in-law has to go to the morning court every day, and today I was in a hurry to meet you, so I had breakfast with him," Ah Jin smiled and asked politely, "What about you?" Have you eaten it? ”

"I've eaten it a long time ago. After a while, the guests will come to the door, and I am afraid that there will be no time to eat. ”

Shen Molin was telling the truth, since the Song family used the gold and jade devices from their Shen family's shop as a dowry gift to the Zhuang Mansion, the gold artifacts in his shop were famous in the royal capital.

Speaking of this, Ah Jin can't help but be proud. Whether it is Shen Molin or Ah Yin, who has returned to Unruly Mountain, they are all good brothers she is proud of, "Money is to be earned, but you also have to pay attention to your body." If you're too tired, hire someone to help you with the cooking. ”

"Well, I know," Shen Molin nodded, and seeing that Ah Jin stopped talking again, he asked a little strangely, "Eldest sister came here today, did she just come here to chat?" ”

"One is to come and see you. I want you to help me pick out a piece of jewelry. The second Langjun of the Song family is about to get married soon, as a brother and sister-in-law, he should prepare gifts for the newlyweds. ”

"Oh, I see. When does the eldest sister need to use it? I chose with all my heart, and sent someone to send it when I got back. ”

"There's no need to be so troublesome, you can send someone to deliver a letter at that time, and I'll pick it up myself." Ah Jin smiled.

"That's fine." Shen Molin understood what Ah Jin meant, he was not an ordinary merchant, but a relative of her mother's family. Ah Jin's handling of this also saves some unnecessary trouble.

The two chatted for a while, and Shen Molin waited until the little maid brought some food up, got up and closed the door, then returned to the table and sat down, and asked in a low voice: "There is one thing, I suddenly remembered, I think it is very important, I still have to talk to the eldest sister." ”

"What's the matter?" Ah Jin looked at him with a smile, but after listening to Shen Molin's words, his smile froze.

"Now there seems to be a rumor that the Nine Emperor Princes, Xiao Nuo, is still alive."

"Who?" Ah Jin's mind suddenly went blank, and even his limbs were a little cold.

"The son of the former concubine, the Nine Emperor Princes, Xiao Nuo." Shen Molin repeated it again.

"When did the news come out?" Ah Jin looked at him, and there were too many emotions condensed in her eyes, so that Shen Molin couldn't see it really.

"I heard this two days ago. At a gathering of all the merchants in the royal capital, I don't know who said it. I listened to what they meant, this matter seems to have something to do with Tongtian Pavilion, so I silently wrote it down, thinking of finding an opportunity to tell you......" Shen Molin said this, paused for a while, and then said: "Eldest sister, why does this matter of the Nine Emperor Princes have something to do with Tongtian Pavilion?" Could it be ......"

"Whatever you hear now, it shouldn't be true," Ah Jin waved his hand, stopping him first. She was a little panicked now, but she didn't dare to show it in front of Mo Lin. Ah Jin sat there and pondered for a while, and then said to Shen Molin: "Let's not talk about this for now, come here today, I want to pick up gold tools, and serious things are important." ”

Shen Molin looked at Ah Jin, his eyes were full of admiration and appreciation, "Eldest sister, you wait here, I'll go and tell them to bring the sample to you to see." ”

Ah Jin bowed slightly, and watched Shen Molin leave. As soon as he went out, Ah Zhen approached Ah Jin and asked nervously, "Girl, what the hell is going on?" Why are we still involved in the Heavenly Pavilion and the royal family? ”

Ah Jin glanced at her, and didn't plan to tell her Ah Yin's life experience, but said, "It's all some old things." Don't worry, the Pavilion Master has his own arrangements. ”

Speaking of Liang Qi'an, Ah Jin's brows couldn't help but tighten. A while ago, Ah Yin came to say goodbye to her, but she didn't care. Now that I think about it, this is mostly a precautionary plan for the father-in-law, who has long expected this day to come.

Thinking about the connection, Ah Jin couldn't sit still, but he also knew that now was not a good time to get out of the city, so he could only retreat, "Later, after we finish picking out the gold utensils, you can accompany me to the inn again." ”

"Okay." Ah Jin was not surprised that Ah Jin made this decision, it was all Ah Jin who wanted to find out the ins and outs of this matter through Liang Chujian.

……

This busyness is a morning. Ah Jin came back after lunch at the Yunlai Inn, and coincidentally, Song Wenyu also entered the door at about the same time as her.

The two of them each got out of the carriage in front of the mansion and saw each other at a glance. After looking at each other and smiling, they walked into the Song Mansion hand in hand, "Why did you come back so late." ”

Song Wenyu took Ah Jin's hand, and the two walked through the long corridor full of lights, and occasionally there were busy people around them. Seeing the couple, they all stopped and saluted respectfully.

"I went to my brother's shop and picked out one or two wedding gifts, and I plan to give them to them on the day of my second brother's wedding."

Song Wenyu nodded. This is something that the two have discussed before.

"He's so dazzling what he has there, and he picks and chooses all morning. Later, I simply went to the inn and had a meal, and then I came back. ”

"Hmm." Song Wenyu answered, suddenly stopped, and looked up at the top of the corridor.

Ah Jin followed his line of sight, and he didn't know what he was looking at for a long time, "What are you looking at?" ”

Song Wenyu glanced at her, reached out and grabbed his shoulder and asked, "What do you think is that?" ”

"Lanterns." Ah Jin looked at Song Wenyu with a stupid expression, and couldn't help but reach out and touch his forehead with the back of his hand, "What's wrong with you?" Sick? ”

"I just...... I suddenly thought of the night we got married. ”

"Oh." Ah Jin was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer. just lowered his head, and pulled the corners of his small coat back and forth with some grievances, "What is there to think." ”

“…… Ah Jin, I can't stand you. I didn't give you a perfect candle night in the cave room, I still ......" Song Wenyu looked at her and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ah Jin, who was blushing with a blushing face.

"Alright, you don't have to say any more. I'm not afraid of being heard as a joke by the next people. Ah Jin said this quickly and shyly and angrily, and walked straight forward.

Seeing this, Song Wenyu hurriedly strode up to her, "Are you angry?" ”

"I didn't. It's all old calendars, and Hugh will mention it again. Ah Jin replied angrily.

"Sure enough, I'm still angry," Song Wenyu sighed, and the two entered the room one after the other, and Song Wenyu said again: "I didn't want which pot not to open, but I just touched the scene and wanted to apologize solemnly to you." ”

"What year and month is this? We're getting along well now, so why bother mentioning these things. Listen to the bad luck," Ah Jin sat on the soft collapse, looking at Song Wenyu with some hatred. Suddenly, she changed her words and slapped the soft handrail hard, "I was interrupted by you like this, and I forgot to get down to business." I heard Mo Lin say today that there are rumors in the royal capital that the Nine Emperor Princes are still alive? ”

Song Wenyu stood in front of her and stared at her for a long time, then walked to the other side of the collapse and sat down, "You know everything?" In that case, then you should also know that the rumors are also related to your Tongtian Pavilion. ”

"Well, Mo Lin also mentioned this, but he couldn't say it clearly."

"It is rumored that the Nine Emperor Sons, Xiao Nuo, is still alive and was raised by the Lord of the Tongtian Pavilion. Is there anything you have to say to me about that? ”

Ah Jin's heart tightened when she heard this, she stared at Song Wenyu's eyes for a long time, knowing that she couldn't hide it from him, so she had to close her eyes and nod lightly.

This time, Song Wenyu is not calm. He stood up suddenly, his face changed instantly, and he couldn't calm down for a long time, "So, the Nine Emperor Princes are really alive. ”

"Alive, he was brought up by my stepfather," Ah Jin sighed, his thoughts drifting a little, "I was eight years old that year, and one night two men in black brought a man and a woman to the Unruly Mountain, and a three-year-old boy who was unconscious came with him. That is the Nine Emperor Princes in your mouth, Xiao Nuo. The master and the father-in-law worked hard to save them. It's a pity...... The woman was bent on dying, but she could not save her, but the man and Xiao Nuo picked up a life...... It's just that...... Since then, Xiao Nuo doesn't remember much about the past, he doesn't remember his biological parents, he only knows that he is an orphan who was picked up by his stepfather. ”

“…… That woman should be a good concubine. But who is the man? Song Wenyu listened to her reminiscing about the past, not very embarrassed, and also became interested in the identity of that man.

"When the man was brought in, he was covered in wounds. When I eavesdropped on my father-in-law discussing a treatment plan with my master, I vaguely heard that it seemed to have been burned by a fire. Probably, without this man's desperate protection, Concubine Liang and the Nine Emperor Princes would not have been able to escape from the palace and survive. ”

“…… What happened to the man. Song Wenyu was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of the identity of this man, but he was not sure.

"Later? Originally, Xiao Nuo would not have been kept in the Tongtian Pavilion, and even my stepfather thought that the man would take Xiao Nuo to the end of the world after recovering from his injury. But we didn't expect that he left alone, not taking Xiao Nuo with him, but stealing a lot of the secret books I had hidden in the Tongtian Pavilion," Speaking of this history, a trace of disdain and sarcasm appeared on the corner of Ah Jin's mouth, "Isn't it unexpected?" ”

Song Wenyu looked at Ah Jin expressionlessly, at this moment, he no longer knew how to face Ah Jin. From Ah Jin's words, he learned too much information that needed to be digested slowly.

Ah Jin saw him take a few steps back, helped Xiao Ji to sit down slowly, and was also worried in his heart, "I have already told you everything I know." What are you going to do? ”

When Song Wenyu heard this, he raised his head and looked at Ah Jindao: "If Xiao Nuo is really alive, then he ......."

Song Wenyu asked this question very hesitantly. He was afraid that Ah Jin would not tell her the truth, and even more afraid that the truth she was going to tell him would be too terrifying.

"You're trying to ask, does Arnold have a desire for the throne?" Ah Jin glanced at him and said with a smile: "If I say never, do you believe it?" Arnolda ...... Since childhood, he has been simple, as simple as the snow on the unruly mountains and the clear ice springs in the deep mountains. He has always disdained this kind of struggle for power and profit, and he is not even willing to listen to it. ”

"You just said that he was raised by your stepfather. If you are a stepfather...... Your stepfather has other intentions, but he will take advantage of him. Song Wenyu suddenly asked again.

Ah Jin looked at him, and the smile on his face faded a lot, "Song Dalangjun, how do I think that I am not chatting now, but that you are arraigning the prisoner." ”

"Ah Jin, I didn't mean that, it's just a big deal...... There are some things that I want to confirm from your mouth. Song Wenyu frowned slightly, and explained patiently.

"Yes." Ah Jin's smile was a little alienated, not as gentle and quiet as before, "Then no matter what I say, will Song Dalangjun believe it?" ”

"As Song Wenyu himself, I believe in you," Song Wenyu was sitting opposite Ah Jin, looking at Ah Jin's injured eyes, and felt uncomfortable, "But as an official of the imperial court, I ......"

"If you want to check the truth of what I said, go and check it. But in the process of investigation, do not listen to slander and wronged me. In this case, I will be sad. Ah Jin lowered his eyes and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Song Wenyu felt a faint pain in his heart when he heard this, and just wanted to stand up and take Ah Jin into his arms to comfort him, but he didn't expect Ah Jin to stand up and walk towards the door first, "Ah Jin, where are you going?" ”

"I don't go anywhere, I just want to walk around the garden and breathe." Ah Jin said so, and left the east wing with Ah Zhen.

Looking at the back of her leaving in a hurry, Song Wenyu wanted to stop her, but his throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton, and he couldn't open this mouth. He tried to catch up with her, and his feet were as heavy as lead.

Song Wenyu sat back on the soft collapse, remembering the conversation between the two before, and couldn't help but get upset.

……

Ah Jin took Ah Zhen to wander aimlessly in the Song Mansion. It was almost evening, and Ah Jin was walking in the garden, and he always felt that he could smell the smell of rice wafting over after another.

She found a stone bench and sat down, put her hand on her stomach, and muttered, "I really shouldn't have chosen this time to come out......

"Girl, why don't we go back?" Ah Zhen obviously heard her words and asked.

"I don't want to go back now." Ah Jin pursed his lips, and had no intention of leaving. Seeing this, Ah Zhen couldn't say anything, so she could only accompany her to starve and freeze in the garden.

I don't know how long it was, but suddenly there was a sound of footsteps not far away. Ah Zhen was overjoyed, and hurriedly grabbed Ah Jin's sleeve and said, "Girl, I guess it's my uncle who is here." ”

When Ah Jin heard this, he was also overjoyed. But when she listened to the sound of footsteps for a while, her face became solemn again, "No, it's not Song Dalangjun." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Song Wenyuan, the second gentleman of the Song family, appeared in front of this pair of masters and servants. Song Wenyuan didn't seem to expect to meet Ah Jin here, and after being stunned, he hurriedly took a few steps back, and saluted Ah Jin, who was sitting in the pavilion, "Little brother is reckless, I don't know ...... sister-in-law sitting here."

"It's okay, what is the second brother doing here so late?" Compared with Song Wenyuan's flusteredness, Ah Jin was much calmer.

“…… It's nothing, I just want to come here and sit. Song Wenyuan pursed his lips and said.

In this case, Ah Jin knew that this was nothing more than prevarication. Seeing that it was getting late, she simply stood up and walked out of the pavilion, "I see that it is not early, and it is time to go back for dinner." Second brother, farewell. ”

"Sister-in-law farewell." Song Wenyuan saluted Ah Jin very respectfully, and only when she walked out of the garden did she slowly stand up straight. The night also wrapped the thoughts and sorrows that could not be dissolved in his eyes, which made people look unreal.

An inexplicable sadness emanated from him, even infecting the bystanders standing in the shadows.

"Heh," Song Li stood in a shadow, staring at this lonely back, thinking back to the scene she had just encountered, a distorted smile appeared on her face, "Have you seen everything that just happened?" ”

The little maid who was waiting behind her listened to her question, buried her head lower tremblingly, shook her head, and said, "Slave, I haven't seen anything. ”

"No, you've seen everything. And you're going to tell my mother everything you just saw in a trembling way, you know? Song Li turned around and said to the little maid with compassion.

When the little maid heard this, it was as if she had been struck by lightning, and she immediately knelt down without thinking much and said, "Girl, spare the slave maid." Slave maid, how can the slave maid say that the second son and the eldest lady are not! This, this is going to be beaten to death with a stick! ”

"Look at your little bit of interest," Song Li took a heavy sip, turned his head and looked at Song Wenyuan, who was still standing motionless, and said quietly: "They don't believe me, sooner or later, sooner or later, sooner or later...... They will all know that I was right and that I am not lying......"

Song Li repeated this sentence and turned to leave. The little maid looked at Song Li who was drifting away in disbelief, until this moment, she really felt Song Li's madness.

The little maid got up from the ground, wiped the tears from her face, ran to catch up with Song Li, and said cautiously: "Girl, let's go back and rest......"

Song Li glanced at her expressionlessly and didn't say anything. When the little maid saw this, she gave it her permission. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and helped her walk towards Song Li's courtyard.
