The more Jian Fan listened, the more angry he became: a woman's jealousy was simply unreasonable! When did Fire Phoenix seduce him? He hoped that Huo Huangying would seduce him, but unfortunately he didn't. Also, although Huo Huangying is arrogant in his words, he is not a troublemaker. She was in that kind of place, and if she loved to cause trouble, she would have been torn apart. She just attaches great importance to her own dignity and does not allow others to be taken lightly.

Aunt Jiang wanted to harm people, but the excuse she made was really tall, and she had something to do with the situation in the court, and said that poisoning and killing people was for his good!

I heard Redsleeves continue: "...... On that day, everyone was in the upper room, and I don't know how to talk about Acacia, and my wife said that the thing was poisonous and told me not to play. The aunt got up with this, and said that the master had been back for a few days, and he hadn't asked the fire girl to serve, which meant that he didn't take her seriously, and it didn't ...... if he died."

Jian Fan was awe-inspiring, "How to poison it?" ”

Red sleeves cried: "This, the maid really doesn't know." After the maid grinds the acacia seeds into powder, she gives them to her aunt, and she doesn't know what is going on. ”

Jian Fan interrogated Aunt Jiang again.

Aunt Jiang refused to admit it.

"I didn't! Master, the concubine is wronged! That lovesick son was begged by the concubine because she missed her master......"

Aunt Jiang is a petty and gentle woman, her mother's father is called Jiang Zhen, and she is the head of the household. Although they are concubines, the two have also had a good time. Now when Jian Fan hears the word "acacia", he feels particularly harsh.

Jian Fan said: "You don't have it? What is the use of grinding acacia seeds into powder? ”

Aunt Jiang was speechless, her face turned white, she paused, suddenly deflated, broke the jar and cried and scolded: "Yes, the concubine wants to poison that fox!" Who asked her to seduce the master! A woman from a dusty background, who does she show that tall look? This thing doesn't even take his wife seriously, can she be kept? But the acacia seeds in the almond tea really didn't come from me. The concubine hasn't had time to call someone to do it. Master, there is more than one concubine in this mansion who wants her to die! The old man is clear! ”

Jian said: "......"

Aunt Jiang will really deny it, according to what she said, he will have to investigate it carefully from the beginning for a while, but I am afraid that in the end, he will not be able to find out the reason.

What if you don't recognize it?

The evidence is conclusive!

What should I do?

Although this ugly family is not suitable for publicity, it is categorical that it cannot be concealed and not disposed of, he has just been promoted to Zaifu, and he can't join the family, how to govern the country? !

He called Jiang Zhen to tell him what had happened, and said: "It stands to reason that it should be sent to the official, but the official has just been promoted to prime minister, and there was a murder in the family, isn't this a handle for impeachment to the imperial history?" Besides, the reputation of the Yu Jiang family is not good. ”

Jiang Zhen was so frightened that he nodded again and again and said, "Yes, yes."

Jian Fan said: "The Jian family can't keep her." However, although you and I are superiors and subordinates, in the end there is a relative's affection, and it is not easy for the official to divorce her, which will disgrace the Jiang family. Take her back, and you will see what you do. ”

Jiang Zhen had no choice but to take his daughter back.

The next morning, he ordered someone to come to Jane's house to report the bad news, saying that Aunt Jiang accidentally fell into the water and died when she was enjoying the snow in the garden.

Jane was busy, and asked the lady to cook the food.

Mrs. Jane took the initiative and asked people to pull Aunt Jiang's body back, and all the funerals were properly arranged, and she sent the red sleeves far away to the Zhuangzi in the field, and when she got married, a life lawsuit was eliminated.

In the evening, I went to see the fire phoenix.

Huo Huangying lived in the hugging house behind the upper room in the main courtyard, and Mrs. Jian assigned two maids and Jin'er to serve and take care of her.

Jian Fan entered the suite and saw a small red lacquer carved shelf bed, a woman who was once like fire lying under the brocade quilt, dragging a handful of green silk on the pillow, her face was pale and haggard, her heart was slightly painful, and she sat sideways on the edge of the bed.

Xu heard the movement, Huo Huangying opened his eyes, and his black eyes set off the pale face, and his lips were bloodless.

Jian Fan said softly: "I have wronged you." ”

Huo Huangying looked at him silently.

Jian Fan said again: "Aunt Jiang is dead. ”

Huo Huangying remained silent.

Jian Fan reached out and touched her forehead and asked, "Angry?" "Thinking about it, the fire girl has never suffered such a big loss, but she can't be angry.

Huohuang's mouth moved, and he opened his dry lips with some effort, and said softly: "Didn't you say that the scenery of Songshan is very good, and there are temples?" ”

Jian Fan nodded and said, "Not bad." ”

Huo Huangying said: "I want to go to incense." ”

Jian Fan smiled and said, "Okay." ”

After a pause, he said, "Take care of your body first." ”

Huo Huangying stopped squeaking.

Jian Fan talked about a few winter scenes of Songshan Mountain, and said a few vegetarian dishes in Ci'an Temple, and finally told her to recuperate well before leaving.

He went to the outer study and ordered someone to call a maid in the courtyard of the upper room to ask about his wife's speech and performance. The maid said that after hearing the news of Aunt Jiang's death, the wife broke a tea bowl and didn't eat lunch, so she lay down on the bed. Later, the old man called someone to spread the word and asked his wife to take care of the funeral, and she got up.

Jian and Gen were silent after hearing this. Madame was afraid, and her composure in front of him was all pretended. This trick worked to set an example for the monkeys.

Yesterday, he listened to Red Sleeves' words, and he was alerted that Mrs. was probably also involved in this, otherwise he would mention the poison of Acacia? Although the poisoning was done by Aunt Jiang, Mrs. Jiang was "Huang Que behind".

He's a lady, and he's capable.

It's just that she can do things seamlessly, so that people can't grasp the handle, but she can't blame her, she can only kill chickens and make an example. Moreover, Mrs. is a wife, and she shares his honor and disgrace and is related to weal and woe, and she can't be easily moved!

Thinking of this, Jian Fan suddenly felt enlightened: in family affairs, he chose his wife and aunt; In the court, kings and courtiers, how to choose? In fact, he had already made a choice when he killed Yan in Huizhou; After returning to Beijing, due to the influence of Cui Yuan, Xie Yaohui and others, he was confused.

It's not too late to wake up now.

Now that he has made a decision, he should plan well and share the emperor's worries at the juncture of Dajing's internal and external troubles, which is his opportunity to show his ambitions.

This night, he planned all night in his study.

The next day, he entered the palace to meet Emperor Jiaxing.

In the imperial study, in addition to Jian Fan, there are also Yin Heng and Lu Chang.

Jian Fan prelude: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the Vermilion Bird King and the White Tiger Duke should be summoned back to Beijing. The Vermilion Bird King had guarded the northern frontier for many years, and the Zhao family had a high prestige in the army, so he was the best candidate to succeed and balance the Xuanwu King. Although the foundation of Baihu Gong is shallow, he is good at manufacturing firearms, and can sit in the firearms research and development center in the suburbs of Beijing. ”

Emperor Jiaxing said: "I have already sent a message to the Vermilion Bird King and the White Tiger Duke to enter Beijing." ”

Jian Fan was overjoyed and busy asking for details.

Jiaxing Emperor Dao, as early as when he received the urgent report from the border pass, he had already sent a decree to southern Xinjiang, ordering the Vermilion Bird King to enter Beijing, "According to the Tanma report, the Vermilion Bird King will soon arrive in Beijing." ”

Jian Fan said excitedly: "The emperor is wise! ”

Emperor Jiaxing also showed a smile.

Finally, Jian Fan did not oppose him.

Jian Fan played again: "The minister still has to play." ”

Emperor Jiaxing hurriedly said: "Aiqing is here." ”

Jian Fan said: "The Xuanwu royal family is powerful, if it is exterminated, I am afraid it will shake the country's foundation." Weichen believes that it can be divided from the inside, replace the branch with a side branch, inherit the title, and only kill Zhang Boyuan's father and son. ”

Emperor Jiaxing and Lu Chang glanced at each other and said happily: "Aiqing and my heroes see the same thing—they have already done so." ”

Immediately ordered Lu Chang to tell the details.
