"When did Aunt Luo leave the Zhenguo Hou Mansion?" Weiman asked.

"It's been ten years of great prosperity, October? No, it's November! Mrs. Tai returned to Beijing in November of the tenth year of Daxing, no, no, no, no, it should be the end of the first month of the tenth year of Daxing," Xia Lan replied while thinking: "Yes, it is the end of the first month of the tenth year of Daxing, at that time, Aunt Luo accompanied Mrs. Tai back to her mother's house in Kaifeng Mansion, and left Beijing at the end of the first month, and when Mrs. Tai returned to Beijing in November, Aunt Luo did not come back. ”

Wei Man was a little confused by Xia Lan's inconsistent words, and after thinking about it and understanding the meaning, her face couldn't help but change.

The old marquis took concubines Aunt Zhang and Aunt Luo in October of the ninth year of Daxing, and soon after, Aunt Zhang became pregnant, but there was no news about the stomachs of Mrs. Tai and Aunt Luo......

I don't know why, Aunt Luo's dodgy gaze suddenly appeared in Wei Man's mind.

"Master Hou," Wei Man thought of something so ridiculous that it was impossible, she grabbed Xia Lan's hand and asked anxiously, "What year was Master Hou born?" ”

"Yes, Daxing for ten years," Xia Lan didn't understand why Wei Man's face suddenly changed, and said for some reason: "It's in September of the tenth year of Daxing." ”

Wei Man's heart was shocked.

Wei Bai was born in September of the tenth year of Daxing, but Mrs. Tai left Beijing at the end of the first month of the tenth year of Daxing and did not return to Beijing until November.

"Master Hou, he wasn't born in the mansion?" Wei Man asked in surprise, "Why?" How could the old lady allow the lady to give birth in her mother's house? ”

"Yes, Hou Ye was not born in the mansion, Hou Ye landed in Kaifeng Mansion," Xia Lan explained: "Back then, when Mrs. Tai left Beijing, she didn't know that she was pregnant with Hou Ye, and she only found out after going to Kaifeng Mansion...... At that time, Mrs. Tai's mother, Mrs. Huang, was seriously ill, and Mrs. Tai was in a hurry, so she hurried on the road...... Ay! In the end, I still didn't see the last of Mrs. Huang, Mrs. Tai was tired and sad, and she fell ill on the day she entered the Huang Mansion, and asked the doctor to check it, only then did she know that Mrs. Tai was pregnant......"

It turned out that Mrs. Tai was in a hurry to see her mother for the last time.

But......

"Is Mrs. Tai really staying at her mother's house to give birth?" Wei Man asked suspiciously: "This, it doesn't make sense, right?" ”

"It's unreasonable, but there's no way around it." Xia Lan said: "It is said that Mrs. Tai was seriously ill at that time, not to mention rushing back to Beijing, that is to move, the fetus will be very dangerous...... Mrs. Tai can only stay in bed at her mother's house to raise the baby, so ......"

When Mrs. Tai left Beijing, she didn't know that she was pregnant, so at that time, the fetus was still small, and the fetal position was an unstable month, and the road was bumpy, and the sadness and grief of her mother's death were added......

It seems that everything makes sense!

"These ......" Wei Man looked at Xia Lan with a puzzled face, and asked puzzledly, "Where did you inquire about, and how did you say that you have seen it with your own eyes?" ”

"Huh? This, naturally, is not what the slave maid saw with her own eyes, this is what other people have seen with their own eyes," Xia Lan told Wei Man after summarizing and polishing all the news she heard, she touched the back of her head a little embarrassed, and said: "The slave maid heard from Mrs. Li who guarded the back door of the garden, and she was one of the maids who followed Mrs. Tai back to her mother's house." ”

"I followed Mrs. Tai back to her parents' house," Wei Man thought for a while and asked, "Back then, were there many maids who followed Mrs. Tai back to her parents' house?" ”

"Naturally, there are a lot." Xia Lan looked at Wei Man in confusion, as if she was very puzzled why Wei Man would ask such a question, she muttered: "If Mrs. Hou goes far away, the maid will have to follow a dozen cars......

Yes, at that time, Mrs. Tai was already Mrs. Zhenguohou, if she went out, she would definitely be followed by a lot of maids, and if she sneezed, she would be remembered by someone with a heart! What's more, it's nearly ten months of raising a baby and giving birth to such a big thing!

What was she thinking?

Wei Man couldn't help but hold his forehead, thinking in his heart that he blamed the drama of the tanuki changing the prince in his previous life because it was too well-known.

After blaming himself for thinking too much, Wei Man thought again that Mrs. Tai gave birth to a child in September and returned to Shangjing in October, but the ancient traffic was very inconvenient, and it would take about a month to return to Beijing from Kaifeng Mansion.

"Did Mrs. Tai leave for Beijing before she finished her confinement?" Weiman asked.

"Yes!" Xia Lan sighed, "...... I received an urgent letter from the capital, saying that the old lady was seriously ill and was in a coma and was talking about seeing her grandson...... Mrs. Tai had to do confinement on the ship...... When I got home, I fell ill......"

Speaking of this, Xia Lan leaned closer and whispered to Wei Man: "Then Mrs. Li and the slave maid said that it was because Mrs. Tai was sick that the old marquis did not have anything to say about Mrs. Tai's private handling of Aunt Luo's grandmother......

"Oh?" Wei Man suddenly muttered, "Yes! ”

Aunt Luo's original identity, although she was a dowry maid whose life and death were decided by Mrs. Tai, after all, she was a slave who was carried by her aunt, and she was already half the master of the house...... Besides, the good concubine suddenly disappeared, and the old marquis also wanted to ask.

"Where is Aunt Luo's whereabouts," Wei Man asked, "How did Mrs. Tai explain to the outside world?" ”

"To the outside world, it was only said that Aunt Luo made a mistake and was kicked out, but," Xia Lan whispered in her ear: "Mrs. Li said that it was not because Aunt Luo made a mistake, but because Aunt Luo's life and Mrs. Tai were angry!" ”

"Fateful offense?" Wei Man was surprised, and said in his heart, how could he get involved with this?

"That's right! It's fate! Xia Lan nodded hurriedly, and said with a mysterious expression: "Mrs. Li said that she saw it with her own eyes...... Mrs. Tai's health is not good, so she went to the famous Daxiangguo Temple in Kaifeng Mansion to pray for blessings, but she didn't expect to meet a monk in the temple, and the monk said to Mrs. Tai that if you want to keep the child in your belly, you must stay away from Aunt Luo...... also said that the uncle was because of Aunt Luo's relationship with Grandma Luo, so he didn't ......"

How could there be such a thing!

Weiman frowned.

Regardless of whether the senior monk in the Great Xiangguo Temple is true or not, let's just say that at that time, the uncle had been gone for several years, and Aunt Zhang in the house was pregnant...... All the hopes of Mrs. Tai are pinned on the child in her womb, and after listening to the words of the high monk, Mrs. Tai will definitely not keep Aunt Luo and Grandma Luo.

"And then?" Wei Man asked, "After hearing such words, how did Mrs. Tai deal with Aunt Luo's grandmother?" ”

"Mrs. Li said that Mrs. Tai shouted at the time and asked people to pull Aunt Luo away from afar," Xia Lan recalled: "Yes, Mrs. Tai first gave some sesame oil money to Daxiangguo Temple, and let Aunt Luo live in the temple to pray for the unborn Hou Ye, and finally heard that Mrs. Tai found a nunnery for Aunt Luo to practice...... Everyone knows Mrs. Tai's taboo against Aunt Luo's grandmother, and no one dares to mention Aunt Luo's ...... in front of Mrs. Tai When they returned to Beijing, everyone didn't dare to mention ...... when they saw that there was no Aunt Luo's grandmother."

In this way, after Aunt Luo was dragged down in the Daxiangguo Temple, she never appeared in front of everyone again......

"After Aunt Luo left," Wei Man asked, "has Mrs. Tai's condition improved?" ”

"This ......" Xia Lan thought for a while, shook her head, and said: "Mrs. Li didn't say it explicitly, but she said that Mrs. Tai's pregnancy has always been very bad, always lying in bed to raise the baby, and rarely going out......"

In other words, after Aunt Luo's grandmother left, Mrs. Tai's condition did not improve much.

However, Mrs. Tai may be more convinced in her heart that if Aunt Luo's words are left, she may not be able to keep the child at all!

If Mrs. Tai's taboo against Aunt Luo's grandmother is these, it can also be explained that Mrs. Tong doesn't like her to contact Aunt Luo......

However, Weiman felt that things were far from simple.

"I, I also heard some other things, saying that Mrs. Tai was jealous of Aunt Luo's grandmother who was more favored by the old marquis, so she drove Aunt Luo out of the house for the reason of her fate, but," Xia Lan said hesitantly: "Mrs. Li said that Aunt Luo has not stayed in the nunnery at all these years, and said, it is ......."

Xia Lan looked at Wei Man with her eyes, looking difficult to speak.

"What's wrong?" Wei Man asked curiously, "What did you hear?" It makes you look like this! Don't worry, if you inquire about something, just say it, whatever it is, I will never blame you. ”

"This is what Mrs. Li said," Xia Lan said a little shyly: "She said that Aunt Luo and Grandma Luo have been serving the old marquis in Northern Xinjiang all these years...... What else do you say about women dressing up as men......"

"Hahaha......"

Xia Lan already felt that this statement was very unreliable, but now that Wei Man was laughing like this, her face couldn't help but flush with shame.

"It's okay......" Wei Man smiled and waved his hand, "I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing at that Li Pozi......"

Wei Man didn't expect that a gatekeeper would be so open-minded.

This kind of thing like a woman dressing up as a man can only happen in the drama, and in reality, it will never be without flaws, not to mention that it is a military camp in Northern Xinjiang...... Besides, Wei Man would never believe that Wei Xiu, a generation of famous generals, would do something to hide a concubine in the military camp.

Laughed for a while.

Wei Man asked Xia Lan some more details.

Suddenly, Wei Man thought of what Aunt Zhang had said that she and Aunt Luo were very good when they were young.

"Back then," Wei Man asked, "did Aunt Zhang and Grandma Luo have a good relationship?" ”

"Aunt Zhang and Aunt Luo," Xia Lan thought for a moment and said, "It should be very ordinary......"

Wei Man's heart moved.

Very average? That's not good!
