Chapter 111: Identity Exposed

The old man was drinking with his children and grandchildren, and when he heard that Sun Rong was fighting with Zhou Daqing, he was so angry that he dropped his wine glass.

When the second master left the table with his nephew and ran straight to the garden, the eldest lady and the eldest lady came over to persuade the master a few words, saying that the children are together, just like the day in June.

The eldest lady said that the two of them must have drunk too much, and they didn't know which words they couldn't say together, so they moved, and the eldest lady persuaded the old man not to be angry about this.

Later, Lian'er came to talk to the master, and the master looked at Lian'er's face and didn't move his liver again.

Lian'er accompanied the master to the council hall, this meal can't be eaten anymore, who has the heart to eat?

The third lady ordered the food to be taken down, and she followed her to the council hall.

The third wife is not good to follow to see Sun Rong and Zhou Daqing's injuries, what did she say, her son fought with her nephew, and the second master took his nephew to go, can she not beat them? !

I went by myself, how can they do it?!

Grandma Leopard and Uncle Leopard listened to the maid who carried the water and recounted what she had heard.

The maid said: "When the two masters were drinking before, they quarreled, and then Rong Ye punched Qing Ye twice, Qing Ye was beaten up, after Qing Ye got up, he smashed Rong Ye with a wine jar, and Rong Ye was bleeding on his head, which scared me to death!" ”

"What did they quarrel about?" Grandma Leopard asked.

The maid snorted as she spoke: "I didn't listen carefully to the specific reason, it seems, it seems to be ????????????."

"Seems like what?" Grandma Leopard asked.

"I ???????????? I didn't hear it clearly! The maid's face turned red, but she swallowed her words back.

"To tell you the truth, if you dare to hide half a sentence, I will break your legs!" Uncle scared her.

The maid listened to the uncle's words, and was really scared to cry.

She is a rough maid, she usually has little contact with the uncle, and her mother is in charge of her, where can she afford the uncle to scare him so much? !

She cried: "Woo, they, they seem to be because, Sister Ma Ya, woo woo, they fight, and it's none of my business????????????"

There is no need to ask, when it comes to horses, everyone knows it!

"Why is it a horse again?" The second wife said this dissatisfiedly on the side.

Grandma Ming said to the maid who was carrying water, "What are you crying for?" If you had said it earlier, I wouldn't have scolded you, go ahead, clean up and eat, don't cry, it's okay! ”

The maid lowered her head there, her body twitched, and peeked at the uncle, whether she would go or not, she didn't know what to do.

The uncle didn't pay attention to the maid anymore, and went over there by himself.

The wives and grandmothers also followed, and a few young ladies also wanted to see the excitement and see what the two of them looked like.

In this way, the master, together with the maids and mothers below, added up to forty or fifty people, and followed the uncle.

It is said that Grandma Leopard made people tie up Ma Ya, which originated from the second wife's sentence "How is it Ma Ya again", Grandma Leopard thought about it, the last time she searched for love poems in Ma Ya's package, she was told by the eldest lady, and as the housekeeper of the inner house, she did not deal with Ma Ya. If I don't deal with it this time, I'm afraid that the big grandmother will use the topic to play.

Now that the master is back, Grandma Leopard has to level a bowl of water and stabilize her position as a housekeeper.

Sun Rong and Zhou Daqing are advanced halls.

They saw that the old man and Lian'er were sitting on the top of the hall, and the two cousins didn't need to be reprimanded, and consciously knelt in the middle of the hall.

Seeing that Sun Rong and Zhou Daqing looked like this, the old man glared at the two of them, so that they didn't dare to raise their heads.

Lian'er's mouth was so shocked that her hands were shaking, and she couldn't wait to go up and slap Sun Rong twice.

Zhou Daqing's face couldn't be seen, his eyes were blue, his mouth was red and swollen, and his body was stained with blood from Sun Rong's head.

Looking at Sun Rong again, there were bloody wounds on his face, the right side of his face was a little red and swollen, but it was not very bad, and the wound on his head was wrapped by someone.

The third wife knew very well in her heart, although Sun Rong's head was covered with blood, according to them, Zhou Daqing smashed it with a wine jar, but the third wife knew that Zhou Daqing must have been beaten by Sun Rong, and it must have been Sun Rong's hand first, so there was no need for the third wife to interrogate!

What Grandma Leopard didn't expect was to wait until the back was taken

When the bundled horses were escorted in, the old man and Lian'er exited almost at the same time: "Why did you tie up the horses too?" What's the matter with her? ”

Grandma Leopard stepped forward and said to them: "According to Sister Niu who carried the water just now, the two of them fought because of Ma Ya!" ”

"Because of the horses? Ma Ya was still here to help me drink just now, what can it do with her? How long has she been gone? ”

The old man said to the people below: "Loosen the tie, it's just nonsense!" ”

After the old man finished speaking, the two mothers-in-law of Ma Ya hurriedly untied Ma Ya.

Everyone looked at each other.

When they saw Ma Ya being tied in, the third wife and Lian'er were very surprised.

The mother and daughter knew very well what Zhou Daqing and Rong'er were fighting for, but how could they tie up Ma Ya?!

The mother and daughter are now convinced of Ma Yasa's panic, saying that in order to keep Ma Ya, the old lady gave Ma Ya a pair of jade bracelets, the purpose of which is to ask Ma Ya to be a concubine for Rong'er.

Sun Rong beat Zhou Daqing because Zhou Daqing had a relationship with Ma Ya.

In the eyes of the third wife, mother and daughter, what does this have to do with Ma Ya? Why did you tie her up?

Sun Rong beat Zhou Daqing because Lian'er told Sun Rong that the old lady had set Ma Ya to be his concubine before she died, and Lian'er meant to let Sun Rong sleep Ma Ya early and sleep as her own person, she couldn't see Zhou Daqing being good to Ma Ya.

Sun Rong listened, he couldn't understand what Lian'er meant, he only knew that Ma Ya was his woman, and he couldn't let Zhou Daqing take advantage of Ma Ya.

Regarding Ma Yasa's panic of being a concubine for Sun Rong, the mother and daughter can't tell anyone else, as soon as they say it, it is related to the problem of the pair of jade bracelets, if they say that the third wife will not come back!

In the eyes of everyone, the third wife, mother and daughter, are two short guards, and the reason for questioning the tying of Ma Ya is not sufficient, this is easy to understand, Ma Ya is their person after all.

But the old man asked Ma Ya to loosen the ties, which made them baffled.

No matter how high Lian'er's status is, she is a royal person, and Ma Ya is not her person now.

Besides, Ma Ya is a maid, and Grandma Leopard deals with a maid, can the master use to peel Grandma Leopard's face in front of so many people? Grandma Leopard is also impartially enforcing the law, as the head of the family, how can the master let Ma Ya get away with it?

Everyone is like a mirror in their hearts, Sun Rong and Zhou Daqing fought because of Ma Ya.

Ma Ya, as a maid, has a relationship with two masters, causing discord between the two masters, who will she arrest if she is not arrested?

Ma Ya, as a girl, should walk properly, although Sun Rong and Zhou Daqing are both masters, why don't other girls have these scandals? !

Then, something that made them even more curious happened.

The old man said to Ma Ya standing below: "Ma Ya, you come with me, I have something to ask you!" ”

If the master wants to ask a maid, he has to carry everyone on his back, isn't it strange?!

The tone in which the old man spoke to the uncle changed, and he got angry and said, "How do you manage this family?" Look at the two of them like bears, they must be punished severely! ”

"Yes, Dad!" The old man stood there in a proper manner, and when he saw the old man moving behind, he was about to send the old man to his own yard.

"Don't send it, I can go myself!" The old man stopped, still speaking very impulsively, and when he turned around and saw Ma Ya coming, he said to one of his big maids: "Cuiliu, you also come, guard the gate for me, and no one is allowed to come in!" ”

"Yes, sir!" A chubby fifteen or sixteen-year-old maid agreed.

Uncle didn't mention how he tried Zhou Daqing and Rong'er.

said that Ma Ya was tied, and the master asked Ma Ya to loosen the tie, and Ma Ya sighed in her heart.

Ma Ya linked the old man's behavior with what the old lady said on the day she gave her the jade bracelet.

When the old man asked Ma Ya to go with him to his side and had something to ask Ma Ya, Ma Ya basically knew it in his heart.

Ma Ya believed that the master must have asked questions about her identity.

When the old man took the horse into his yard, Cuiliu moved a small stool, took the courtyard gate, and sat down on the edge of the courtyard gate, and looked at both sides of the road very seriously, always vigilant against anyone who wanted to approach this courtyard.

The old man entered the house, did not sit down, the old man stood face in, and when Ma Ya came in, the old man first asked Ma Ya a question.

"Ma Ya, you tell me the truth, are you not surnamed Ma?"

Ma Ya was stunned, she looked at the master's back and was silent for a while.

The old man didn't even move, and kept waiting for Ma Ya's answer.

"Master, my surname is Ma????????????"

"No, you don't have the surname Ma!" The old man said firmly.

The air seemed to be frozen, at this time, Ma Ya's brain seemed to be stuck, she didn't know how much the master knew about her, Ma Ya chose to be silent, and spent it there with the master!

Ma Ya knows that she is now facing an old man with very rich life experience, and this old man, but after nine deaths in his career, it is difficult to deal with people like this, so Ma Ya has to be cautious.

After a while, Ma Ya walked over and wanted to make tea for the old man.

"Don't fall down Ma Ya, I can't afford you!" When the old man said this, he did not mean to be dissatisfied, but said it to Ma Ya in a sincere tone.

After the old man finished speaking, he sighed, turned around, looked at Ma Ya with a surprised face, and then said: "Ma Ya, there is no second person in this room, only me and you, I just want to confirm one thing now!" ”

"Sir, what do you want to prove?" Ma Ya asked calmly and quietly.

"When it's just the two of us, don't call me master, I really can't stand it!" The old man looked directly at Ma Yadao.

At this time, Ma Ya was half awake from wine, and she was slowly sobering up from the time she was tied up.

The lord used a word for you!

Ma Ya's brain reaction is not as fast as usual, but there are still sensitives like this!

Ma Ya looked at the seventy-year-old man, and the old man also looked at this girl who was only nineteen, although the two of them looked at each other, they were brewing what they wanted to say!

In the end, it was the old man who spoke.

"You said your mother's surname is Feng, right?" The old man asked.

"Yes!" Ma Ya replied.

"No, your mother's surname is not Feng, your mother's surname should be Ma!" The old man saw Ma Ya's pupils dilated, and then followed: "This woman surnamed Feng, you should call her aunt, right?" ”

No matter how good Ma Ya's psychological quality is, she can't be calm at this time.

Ma Ya's mind was spinning rapidly. This shock made Ma Ya's heart flutter.

You know, what the master said is right, Ma Ya did call Feng Qinghui Aunt Feng before, Feng Qinghui is an elderly palace maid in her thirties, every palace maid like this, everyone calls her aunt!

Moreover, the empress of Emperor Huiwu, that is, Ma Ya's mother, is indeed surnamed Ma!

"Master, what have you heard?" Ma Ya adjusted her mind and calmly asked the master such a sentence.

"That's right!" The old man seemed to be talking to himself, he didn't look up at Ma Ya again, but slowly bent his knees, and knelt down in front of Ma Ya: "The old man deserves death, our Sun family's crime deserves death, sinner Sun Xiaoyun, meet the princess of the bowl!" ”

The old man's head slammed to the ground!

Ma Ya was first shocked when the old man knelt like this, and then, the words that the old man said made Ma Ya gradually calm down.

Ma Ya suddenly had a feeling that the wind and rain were coming, and the wind was full of buildings.

At this time, Ma Ya no longer pretended, she looked at the old man who was kneeling on the ground, and said slowly.

"General Sun, what do you want?"

"Princess Wan don't need to panic, about your identity, only I know now, I haven't said anything, even the old woman underground, I haven't told her!" The old man slammed his head on the ground and never looked up.

When Ma Ya heard him say this, she said: "Since General Sun has inquired about my background, I don't have to hide it, please ask General Sun to get up and speak!" ”

"Old Princess Xie Wan!" The old man got up from the ground, wiped his sleeve on the chair, then took a step back, hunched his waist, and made a gesture to Ma Ya, "Princess Wan, please sit down and talk!" ”

Ma Ya hesitated, but walked over.

After so many years, the nobility on Ma Ya's body suddenly returned.

Now, Ma Ya doesn't know whether she is fierce or lucky, anyway, since her identity as a princess has been revealed by the master, then she doesn't have to pretend to be a maid.

Ma Ya sat on the chair, and then said, "General Sun, you sit too!" ”

"The old man is guilty, the old man can stand and talk to Princess Wan, I am very grateful to Princess Wan!"

The old man clenched his hands into fists, his back slightly arched, and he looked groveling.

"General Sun, what are you going to do with me? It was to give me to my usurping uncle and grandfather????????????"

The old man knelt down again, and said in his mouth: "The old man doesn't dare, if Princess Ruowan has any orders, the old man is willing to do the work of dogs and horses!" ”

Ma Ya frowned, and with a sigh, she was a little strange.

She asked the master: "General Sun, you are a subordinate of the King of the North, what's wrong?" Want to betray him? ”

"Princess Wan doesn't have to suspect the old man's surrender, Princess Wan is a very smart person, what the old man wants to say next, Princess Wan will definitely have her own judgment!"

"Oh?" Ma Ya said to the master: "General Sun doesn't have to kneel, get up and speak!" ”

And the old man got up from the ground again.

Ma Ya smiled: "General Sun, what are you going to say, aren't you surprised that I am so calm?" ”

"It's not strange to be old at all!" The old man suddenly remembered something, turned around hurriedly, took the kettle, scalded the cup with water, and personally made a cup of tea for Ma Ya.

Ma Ya was not polite, took it, and took a sip.

The old man said: "The old man knows that Emperor Taizu left a team of spies before his death, even if it is an important minister in the court, I don't know who is in charge of this team, the list of personnel in it, how many people there are, and what position they hold, where their home is, what they usually do, these are all informed!" ”

Ma Ya drooped her eyelids, thinking to herself, could this be the old man playing tricks on himself?

However, Ma Ya felt that the master should not, because when he talked about this, it showed that he was not stupid.

During the Taizu period, there were a lot of killings, and the people killed were officials and relatives, and at his age, it was impossible for him to be forgetful so quickly.

Taizu killed people, could it be that he killed people for no reason?! You must know that these corrupt officials and corrupt officials were all found by this secret agent, and they were written as folds and sent to Taizu's desk by a special person!

The old man continued: "Emperor Fu Kang has been investigating for more than ten years, but he has no clue at all, and the old man understands that these people are all dead soldiers, they are only loyal to their master, Emperor Huiwu, and it is impossible for Emperor Fu Kang to use them!" ”

Ma Ya looked at the old man carefully, and saw that he had gray hair, gray beard, wrinkles on his face, and a slumped back, looking really old.

"Sit down!" Ma Ya took another sip of tea and said, "General Sun, sit down and talk!" ”

"Princess ????????????"

"Sit!"

Ma Ya's tone was very hard.

"Alas, thank you for the throne!"

Ma Ya sat on the edge of the table, and there was a chair on the other side, but the old man did not sit, but moved a stool, sat down, and kept a distance not far from Ma Ya, so that Ma Ya could hear the whispering.

Ma Ya asked, "General Sun, how did you know my identity?" ”

"When you first entered the mansion, the old man suspected that the princess would never live in a poor house????????????"

"Well, I mean, who told you that I'm Princess Wan?"

"No one told the old man, the old man guessed!" The old man paused and said: "Here's the thing, once, Emperor Fu Kang chatted with the old man, saying that Emperor Huiwu and Queen Ma had a daughter, because she was sick since she was a child, she was raised in a temple outside the palace, and then disappeared!" ”

"And then?"

"Then, the old man inquired that there was Aunt Feng who served Princess Wan back then."

"Then how did you tell that I was Princess Wan?"

"At the beginning, you followed Rong'er and them to school, at that time you helped him write, he was praised by Mr., Mr. also showed me the words you wrote for Rong'er, saying that Rong'er made rapid progress, and then after you helped them do their homework was revealed, I privately received a copy of your notebook and asked the Minister of the Central Government to ask Master Xie, who said that this character has no four or five years of skills, and he can't write such words. Master Xie also told me that don't look at some of the strokes of this word, this is deliberate, not that the person who wrote this word is at this level! ”

The old man said: "Master Xie also said that this stroke is quite skilled, how can it be written badly on the framework of the word?" I don't know much calligraphy????????????"

Ma Ya frowned, she didn't expect that her clumsy writing back then had been found out by the master, Jiang was really old and spicy!

I was with my brother back then, and I studied with the gentleman in the palace, but he taught himself to write by hand, and he was a Confucian in his sixties!

Thinking of this, Ma Ya asked casually: "But in the fourth year of Huiwu, the master Xie who was recalled by my father?" ”

"Exactly!" The old man put his hands on his knees, hunched his back slightly, and continued: "At the beginning, I was thinking, whose daughter is this, why is this so hard? It wasn't until Emperor Fu Kang mentioned to Lao Yu that there was such a person as you, that I suddenly realized, for so many years, I haven't heard of anyone's daughter, who studied at a young age, and at that time Lao Yu also calculated the age of the princess, I'm afraid it's only four years old, right? ”

Ma Ya nodded slightly, and said: "I remember, I was very naughty at that time, I saw that my brother always didn't play with me, he had to go there to study every day, so I made a fuss about studying, and my father asked me to study with my brother every day." ”

"That's right!" The old man was pleased: "I also heard a father-in-law in the palace say, saying that you were more than the prince back then, you didn't call the emperor the emperor, you called the emperor the father and the queen the mother!" ”

"Yes!" Ma Ya reminisces about the scene of that year, and she still remembers it vividly.

However, I heard that my mother was in flames????????????

"General Sun, what I wonder is, wouldn't it be great if you kept being so confused?! Why do you want to pierce this layer of window paper? Ma Ya said: "You don't want to take me to ask Emperor Fu Kang for a reward, so what is your intention?!" ”

"Princess ????????????"

"I was originally a princess, and my father didn't have time to seal me yet!"

After Ma Ya finished speaking, she looked at the master, she wanted to try to see where the master knew.

The old man smiled and said, "If Emperor Huiwu is on the throne, it will be sooner or later, but in the people, as long as she is the daughter of the emperor, she is called a princess!" ”

Ma Ya is relieved!

After Emperor Huiwu fled, he saw Feng Qinghui for the last time, and gave the title of Princess Wan to Feng Qinghui to Ma Ya, he didn't know this master, that's good!

Ma Ya listened to the old man again: "Princess, the old decay is about to die, and I only learned your identity in the end, the old decay deserves death, the Sun family is sorry for you, and you have suffered a lot of grievances????????????"

"Needless to say!" Ma Ya stared at the old man's face, and then said something she thought was shocking, Ma Ya said: "When I was imprisoned in the firewood house by you, if I thought my brother's intentions, I would raid your home, and I would not leave any of them!" ”

However, the old man's performance was not as shocked as Ma Ya imagined, but the old man turned around and said to Ma Ya very calmly: "Princess Wan, this is also the reason why the old man is terrified, the old man is dead, and it is not a pity to die, but it is a pity that my family has dozens of people, plus these people in the family, there are two or three hundred people, they are innocent, so the old man can help the princess even a little, and the old man feels that he is atoning for his sins." ”

"Is there anyone else in the house who doubts my identity?" Ma Ya asked.

"Nope!" The old man said: "Princess, the old woman didn't even tell the old woman about this, let alone others." The old man knows that the stakes are high, and if he is not careful, he will be known by the above. Now Emperor Fu Kang is also vigorously developing his own intelligence team, and they are also investigating the whereabouts of you, the emperor and the crown prince! ”

Ma Ya nodded.

Until now, Ma Ya understands that the master really won't betray himself, and he can't joke with the lives of his family.

Don't look at the Sun family, they are all talented, but if they are compared to Gongru Villa, it is really trivial.

Compared with the masters of the rivers and lakes snared by Gongru Villa, these men in Sun Mansion lack all kinds of sideways and viciousness!

Thinking of this, Ma Ya asked the master: "After I go out, how are you going to explain to your children and grandchildren?" ”

"The princess is resourceful, whatever the princess wants the old man to say, the old man will say whatever he wants!"

Ma Ya thought that the lie she had told to the third wife and Lian'er was not known to the master.

Ma Ya told the master the lie she told the third wife.

Ma Ya finally said: "General Sun, borrow your mouth and send me to the Imperial Grandson's Mansion!" ”
