Tian Ruyue sat on the edge of the bed, told Wei Jin all the conversations between the second prince and Mrs. Lian, and asked with some concern: "Master Li has been imprisoned, if the emperor suspects you......?" ”

"Scared?" Wei Jin raised his eyebrows, took her hand and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, my husband is a sick son who is about to die at any time, and the saint will doubt me, but he will be more suspicious of his sons who have grown into trying to seize the throne." ”

Tian Ruyue: "...... Even if you are right, then let's wait and see? ”

Wei Jin: "Hmm. ”

Two days later, the officers and soldiers besieging Weifu retreated on their own, and Weifu returned to its former calm. Tian Ruyue disguised herself as a man and went to the teahouse to inquire and learned that Master Li died in the criminal department, the whole family was imprisoned, the male was beheaded after the autumn, and the female was charged to the teaching department.

It is reported that the people in the official kiln were once arrested and interrogated in prison, but now they have all been released. She was a little worried about Master Zhao, so she bought some gifts and took Baishuang to Zhao's mansion in person, and saw Master Zhao lying on the bed.

The maid brought a stool and put it next to the bed, Tian Ruyue sat down and looked at Master Zhao and asked with concern, "Master, are you okay?" ”

Master Zhao, who was seriously injured in the torture, smiled happily, "If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing." "Compared with Master Li, whose whole family was beheaded, he only suffered a little bit of flesh and skin, which is very fortunate!

Tian Ruyue saw that he had suffered a lot in the Criminal Department, and was afraid that he would misunderstand and explain a few words: "The Wei Mansion has also been implicated and surrounded by officers and soldiers, and I can only go out of the Mansion to inquire about the situation after the withdrawal of troops today. ”

"What do you blame?" Master Zhao sank his face, "Blame and blame my ambitious junior brother for daring to murder the current saint and implicate us and others." ”

Tian Ruyue was afraid that his anger would affect his body, so she diverted the topic and asked, "Senior brother, are they okay?" ”

Speaking of the apprentices, Master Zhao's face softened slightly, "They were also arrested in the Criminal Department, but fortunately, they are all my apprentices, and they usually have no contact with Master Li, and the punishment is not heavy, but Master Li's disciples are miserable, although some are released, half of them died in the torture of interrogation, but it's a pity that the lives are gone, alas!" ”

Tian Ruyue knew the cruelty of the ancient criminal law and the cruelty of the joint sitting system, and she didn't feel any surprise when she heard this, but only felt a chill in her heart.

After chatting a few more homely words, because Master Zhao had an injury and needed to rest more, he said goodbye and left.

After leaving the Zhao Mansion, Tian Ruyue did not go home, but went to the pawnshop again.

A few days did not come, the shop has been renovated, according to the floor plan she drew, the shop is divided into two with hollow carved wooden boards, three treasure shelves are placed against the wall, with a fresh wood fragrance of camphor wood, insect-proof, moth-proof, mildew and moisture-isolating, durable.

But there are also disadvantages, because the aroma can be repellent, if it is in a closed and non-circulating bedroom, it is harmful to the body for a long time, fortunately, the door and back door of the pawnshop are open and ventilated all year round, and the wind takes away most of the aroma, and the smell of a little fragrance is pleasant.

After reading it, Tian Ruyue thanked the shopkeeper with satisfaction.

Shopkeeper Yu smiled and said, "The young lady is polite." The corner of his eye swept to Tian Duofu on the side, "The eldest brother of the young lady is very diligent, the rooster crows early every day, cleans the house, cooks, and serves the old man obediently, who is more filial than the old children and grandchildren, and the old man is ashamed." Out of the corner of his eye, he swept to the guy who was sleeping on his stomach at the counter.

The man's family lived nearby, and he went home to rest after closing the door every day, and came back to open the door the next day, but now that all this work was done by Tian Duofu, he became more and more lazy, and came late and left early.

Tian Ruyue smiled after hearing this, "My eldest brother just can't be idle, he is young and strong, and his body is good, if you have something, just tell me." "The teapot shop won't be open for a while and a half because it's out of stock!

Seeing that the shopkeeper's beard is white, and his back is also tired, it is estimated that he is seventy years old, but he is still busy in the pawnshop at such an age, which is really hard. It's really nothing that the eldest brother is willing to do more work.

After listening to this, the shopkeeper touched his beard with satisfaction, and invited Tian Ruyue into the backyard alone, "Young lady, you are old and old, and your health is getting worse and worse.

My family persuaded me to go home several times and tease Sun Yi to raise my old age, but I was put off again and again because I was relieved that the young master was not relieved. I wanted to train a shop guy, but that kid was too lazy to be a talent.

Now that the old man has taken a fancy to Duofu, he is diligent and honest, and he is willing to learn and progress, and he wants to try to hand over the pawnshop business to him, you see? ”

Tian Ruyue showed unexpected joy when she heard this, how could she refuse such a good thing? Naturally, a hundred agreed!

Tian Duofu next to him was also shocked, as if he had been hit by a pie in the sky.

After this incident, Tian Ruyue continued to leave Tian Duofu to teach the shopkeeper with confidence, and left the pawnshop with Baishuang and took the carriage home.

Halfway through, the gongs and drums outside the carriage were noisy, Tian Ruyue curiously lifted the curtain and looked out, and unexpectedly saw a group of scholars gathered around to look at the notice wall, and looked at it curiously.

Bai Shuang saw that he understood and immediately explained: "Today is the day of the release of the list, your brother-in-law and fourth brother have participated in this imperial examination, I don't know if it is high school." You stay in the carriage and the slave goes down to see for you? ”

Whether Tian Duogui is in high school or not has nothing to do with her, but if she is in high school for the rest of her life, the second sister Tian Ruhua will definitely be happy, so Tian Ruyue agreed to stop the carriage, and watched Baishuang get off the carriage and squeeze into the crowd to see the list of lists.

It was a quarter of an hour before the hoarfrost squeezed out of the crowd again and returned to the carriage.

Tian Ruyue saw that she was sweating profusely, took out a handkerchief and handed it to her to wipe off the sweat stains, and did not urge the result of the inquiry.

Bai Shuang took the handkerchief and said happily while wiping his sweat: "Your fourth brother is in high school!" However, the slave maid did not find your brother-in-law's name, and I am afraid that he will be off the list. The slave was afraid that she would miss it, so she searched for it five times to confirm it. ”

Tian Ruyue, who already had a number in her heart, nodded slightly, "Thank you for your hard work, let's go home." ”

The carriage moved slowly again.

Bai Shuang looked at Tian Ruyue's unchanged side face, and asked tentatively, "Aren't you going home to report the good news?" ”

Tian Ruyue chuckled, "The person in high school threatened that I would become a widow and live on the streets, and I would like to congratulate him on this kind of person?" Put your own face at his feet and let him step on it? It's a shame that you can figure it out. ”

White Frost: "...... The slave is talkative. ”

Get off the carriage and return to the Wei Mansion, the gate of the Wei Mansion, which used to be lively and extraordinary, is now full of people and no one cares.

The subordinate who guarded the door changed from the original teenager to the old man of the death contract, and when he saw Tian Ruyue returning, he stepped forward respectfully and saluted, "Young lady, Madame explains, if you return to her courtyard, she will have something to look for you." ”

Tian Ruyue bowed her head slightly to him to indicate that she heard it, and went straight to the courtyard where Mrs. Lian was with Baishuang, but she only saw Mama Hu.
