"The descendants of the Qin family in Jiangnan. He is the same age as you, he lost his wife at an early age, and he has no children. Many years ago, he moved to Liaodong with his family and made a living by raising silkworms. Quite a family property. When the Hui people worshipped their ancestors this year, they mentioned to Ah Jian that they wanted to marry a capable wife and take care of the family business together. When Ah Jian saw you, he thought it was very suitable, so he wanted to ask for a marriage for this brother. Wan Niang, what do you think? ”

After Bai Tang finished speaking, he raised his glass to drink tea, but peeked at Wan Niang's reaction in the tea smoke.

After being stunned, Wan Niang's eyes showed a wry smile.

The two were silent, and after facing each other for a long time, she sighed softly: "I knew there would be today." ”

Although the voice was a little thinner, it was obviously a man.

He ripped the silk cloth off his face, revealing the Adam's apple in his head and neck.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Shen Wenlan felt that Bai Tang's gaze at his Adam's apple was full of envy.

Bai Tang sighed lightly, took out a mask and put it in his hand: "Lin Wanniang married Liaodong, and Shen Wenlan returned to Jiangnan. ”

The mask is cut from a thin layer of wood and polished to a mirror-like finish. It was only the size of a palm, just enough to cover the scars on half of Shen Wenlan's face.

Shen Wenlan touched the scars on his face, the pain in his eyes flashed, and said in a desolate voice: "I can't come back." ”

Bai Tang frowned: "I wanted to ask you, how did the injury on your face come from?" ”

Shen Wenlan smiled: "In order to escape the pursuit, I burned my face with a candle flame myself. ”

Bai Tang's heart is on the side. It can be seen that the situation at that time was dangerous. Shen Jiayulang! A man who can afford a jade character, what a grace! But I had to ruin my face with my own hands!

"Who is it?" Who are the people who are responsible for such evil acts?

Shen Wenlan shook his head and sighed: "You don't have to get involved in this battle for me. ”

Fight?

Shen Wenlan said word by word: "The battle for imperial power." ”

Bai Tang shook his head and expressed puzzlement: "What can you do for them?" It's just to borrow your power and make more money. ”

Shen Wenlan also shook his head: "Although I am good at picking flowers and knots, I am known as having no patterns and no knots, and no birds and beasts can not be woven." But if you want to make money from this, why should you ruin my family? With their skills, the flowers of the weaving bureau are all there, and it is not difficult for them to borrow and use them. ”

Bai Tang gradually became shocked: "What do you mean-"

"Do you know that all the holy decrees used today have secret lines?"

Bai Tang turned out the holy decree he had received at this time, and pointed to the line of words carried by Fengtian and said: "Xu San said that the pattern here corresponds to the word." ”

"Ayajin, patterns and characters were originally completed by different embroidery girls, and the process was complicated. I was the one who wove the book. Shen Wenlan smiled bitterly, "Since then, all the holy decree silk brocade of the three major weavings have been woven by the flower building machine. These books are kept tightly guarded and there is no possibility of leakage. But this line of words is still embroidered by the embroiderer. The position of each stitch is related to the size of the font. ”

Bai Tang understood something, and the hairs on his whole body stood up!

"The embroiderers of the Weaving Bureau have strict selection rules. When they reach the age, unless there is another reason, they usually have to abdicate on time, and with their skills, it is not difficult to find a livelihood in the embroidery workshop outside. Shen Wenlan's voice gradually lowered, "But the embroidery girls in critical positions, even if they are old enough to release the weaving bureau, the court also has a rich offering, but at the same time, they are also under the strict supervision of the court, and they are not allowed to take work outside." ”

The embroidery girl in the critical position, Bai Tang, lost her voice and said: "Could it be that you have lost an embroidery girl?" ”

Shen Wenlan nodded slowly: "Five years ago, an elderly embroiderer in the Nanjing Weaving Bureau died of a sudden illness not long after returning home. He recalled the old things, and his eyes were slightly distracted. Coincidentally. One year, when I went to the north to look for silkworms, I stumbled upon a woman who looked very similar to her. ”

It's clear.

Bai Tang only felt ridiculous: "Even so, they don't have a jade seal, so they are just busy working in vain!" The treasure seal used by His Majesty to pass on the throne is under the special charge of the Treasure Seal Bureau. Trying to confuse the divine will with a false will will not work at all! ”

In history, the two parties of the King of Han and the prince competed, and the deity naturally did not suffer any damage, but the officials under his command fought extremely fiercely! Especially the crown prince, almost all the army was wiped out! Even so, Zhu Di had no intention of abolishing the crown prince. In such a situation, it seems reasonable that the annoyed and angry King of Han wants to seize the heir. But this method is too stupid - no wonder it ended up being burned to death in the vat in the end!

Shen Wenlan said indifferently: "You also know that the treasure seal is better than the holy decree. "The treasure seal is in the palace, and there is always a way to use it secretly, and there is no trace of it. Every use of the decree is recorded. One less, the palace will turn the sky upside down!

Although Bai Tang and Shen Wenlan did not say anything, they both tacitly agreed that the mastermind behind this matter must be Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han.

In fact, he doesn't think about anything but him.

"How long can you hide in Tibet?" Bai Tang condensed and said, "It's better to come back with great fanfare!" I've got my own way to protect you! ”

Shen Wenlan was stunned, living in his original identity openly and honestly was something he never dared to dream of.

"It's easy to dodge with open guns, but it's hard to defend against hidden arrows. If they do it to you—I can't hurt your whole family!" ”

Bai Tang smiled lightly: "They don't have much time to jump." ”

Because not long after the emperor returned from this expedition, the king of Han was driven to the fiefdom and completely lost the trust of the emperor!

"There's only one thing...... Bai Tang hesitated, "How are you going to deal with Quan Hong?" ”

Shen Wenlan hurriedly turned his head sideways, not daring to meet Bai Tang's gaze: "I-I won't drag him down." ”

Chen Lin's lesson was enough to wake him up. He will never repeat the mistakes of the past.

Two days later.

Bai Tang's family ushered in a matchmaker dressed in red and green.

The neighbors thought that Bai Lan's good thing was coming, but when they inquired, they turned out to be kissing Wanniang!

Deng Shi shook his head: Wan Niang is the cash cow of Songzhu Zhai, how could Lian Baitang easily let her marry? What's more, it's still far away to marry Liaodong! However, seeing that the other party is actually a partial branch of the Qin family, and he is a rich man in the north, he will not lose money if he is reluctantly married. It all depends on Wan Niang's own meaning.

After a few more days, Qin Jian personally came to the door to hire!

Everyone was in an uproar: This family business turned out to be done?

Su Shi greeted the neighbors with a sad face: "In a few days, the wine at home will be regarded as a farewell to Wanniang!" ”

When everyone thought about it, they slapped their thighs and scolded themselves for being stupid: Wan Niang has been in the Lian family for so long, and I heard that Su is also learning to weave with her. must have learned all her skills, so he was willing to let her get married! It's okay, get a good fate, everyone get together and disperse!

Alas, if you knew this, it would be better to come to the door to ask for relatives yourself, and you can also choose a big bargain!

Since the whole steward knew that Wan Niang was married, he was worried about his youngest son's temper. Unexpectedly, Quan Hong remained silent, but was busy preparing the dowry for Wan Niang, as if she was going to marry him. I can't help but be surprised and surprised. But he didn't dare to ask, but he was afraid that his son's laborious support would make him unable to hold the seizure with a word, and the gain would outweigh the loss.

"Dad, Wanniang is getting married, and I'm going to Beijing too." Quan Hong's face was guilty, "This time, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back to Nanjing for a while." At the end of the year, Bai Tang moved his family to Beijing. He will definitely answer in Beijing. I also have to prepare for the opening of Songzhu Zhai, and in the first few years, I am afraid that I will be too busy to have any free time.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't come back, finding a daughter-in-law for him is the first thing! The whole steward who was muttering in his heart didn't dare to stimulate his son at this time, so he had to press down and complain.

In the blink of an eye, Qingming is coming, and the upstairs is officially opened.

Bai Tang was originally ready to rub his back with Xu San Hot Spring. But after a fight with him before, Xu San never came to look for him again! He has been uneasy in his heart, and he can't help but reflect on whether he is really sorry for Qiu An. But after thinking about it over and over again, I didn't figure out what I was doing badly, so I was even more worried. Just waiting for the official opening upstairs, Xun Xu San said well, it's a big deal to admit your mistake? Who made himself so much older than him had to tolerate him more.

Bai Tang cheered up and celebrated with Su Shi and Bai Lan early. Who knew that after sitting for a long time, Xu San didn't appear.
