Qi Shi listened, responded casually, and then there was no follow-up.

In fact, Qi felt that it didn't matter what she said, anyway, she was Lin Yu'an's aunt, if Lin Yu'an didn't want to make a bad name in the capital circle, it was best not to provoke her.

She wasn't worried at all.

Wang Tingzhen and Wei sat opposite Lin Yu'an, and Qi sat on the main seat, one hand rotating a string of garnet-red agate bracelets on his wrist.

Lin Yu'an's eyes turned around the room, he didn't find anything abnormal, he generally wanted to know anything, and the best flaws were in the conversation, in order to get closer, Lin Yu'an took the lead in asking: "When will the eldest uncle come back, I haven't seen the eldest uncle for a long time." ”

Qi sighed, slowly put down the teacup, and said slowly: "Things have been complicated in the court recently, and he won't come back until dark." ”

Everyone has heard a little about the affairs of the imperial court, and when they heard this, they did not doubt it, Qi put his hands in front of him, and sat upright, as if he was about to ask them about their intentions, Lin Yu'an opened his mouth first: "Brother Heng is five years old, he has grown a lot taller, I don't know where to go to school now?" ”

It stands to reason that with Brother Heng'er's identity alone, he can only study in the usual private school, but the Qi family told them that Brother Heng is now studying with the princes, of course, the so-called princes, that is, the two sons of the emperor who has just passed away.

originally thought that the Wang family was in decline, and the county lord of Anning was no longer favored because of the death of the emperor, and Lin Yu'an was a little surprised to hear that Brother Heng was still studying with the princes in the palace.

However, this was not their purpose, so the topic was quickly revealed.

At this time, Wei Shi gave full play to his lip service, and he could always divert the topic when Qi wanted to serve tea to guests, and then continued to delay time.

Qi Shi was able to barely maintain peace on her face at the beginning, but when it came to the back, she became a little impatient, she was a noble person in the Wang family and even in Da Zhou, she never had to learn how to usher in the send-off, get along with others peacefully, and naturally didn't want to continue to talk with Lin Yu'an and them here.

And she found that her control over the topic was getting weaker and weaker, and she was dragged away by them many times, and even when she talked about her brother Huaiheng, she sighed that Wang Zhongguo's heirs were thin.

This kind of topic made her feel very uncomfortable, she just wanted to end the topic quickly and send them out, and regretted in her heart that she shouldn't have let people bring them in, she had known that she was not feeling well, and it was better to be sick or something than to be like offending the plague god now, and she couldn't drive these people away.

But soon, Lin Yu'an stood up and said goodbye to the Qi family, and an inexplicable look flashed on Wei's face, and then got up, Wang Tingzhen still didn't understand, but he still followed out of the Zhangchi Pavilion together.

When he got out of Zhangchi Pavilion, Wang Tingzhen looked at the two of them with a puzzled face, and said in his heart What are they playing, and they haven't asked the point yet, so they left?

However, Lin Yu'an got into the carriage and explained to her: "Mother, this matter has already been settled. ”

…… So there's an idea?

Wang Tingzhen was stunned, feeling a little beyond her imagination, Wei looked at her with a smile: "Tingzhen, have you noticed that when we talk about other things, the county lord can barely calm down, and when we get to the back, when we talk about Brother Heng, she begins to be a little unable to answer, and she is faintly a little frightened, especially when we talk about her Huai Heng Ge'er and eat a lot of good things, and later say that she gave birth to Heng Ge'er, Heng Ge'er is less than a month, but a few points better than the full-term child, her face is a little pale." ”

Listening to Wei's prompt, Wang Tingzhen thought about it, revealing a look of surprise and sudden realization.

This is true, she also felt that the Qi family was a little unnatural when they talked about Brother Heng just now, but she just thought that the Qi family simply felt that they talked too much and were upset, and then she understood.

Wang Tingzhen's expression changed, she looked at the Wei family and her daughter in disbelief, her feelings for Wang Zhongguo are different, for her, she and her eldest brother are compatriots, they are brothers and sisters of the same lineage, if the Qi family's affairs are confirmed, it will not only be a black face for the eldest brother, for the Wang family, such a chaotic bloodline is a great shame.

"This ...... How is this possible, I thought that meeting my sister-in-law in person today would dispel your doubts, so what should I do about this, do I want to tell my eldest brother, do I want to ......"

Wang Tingzhen was a little flustered, Wei Shi held her hand and comforted: "Don't worry, if the eldest brother can see the true face of the county lord as soon as possible, it is better than feeding a wolf cub as his own son, if he waits until one day, the child will grow up and know that his biological father is not the eldest brother, which is the biggest harm to the eldest brother." ”

Listening to Wei's words, Wang Tingzhen's eyes were a little red and she lowered her head.

Lin Yu'an knew that her mother was uncomfortable, and it was difficult to accept such a fact for a while, the corners of her mouth curled up to appease Wang Tingzhen: "Mother, you can't trust your daughter, can't you trust your third aunt, you don't care about this matter, leave it to us." ”

Wang Tingzhen nodded, and Lin Yu'an asked Ganlu Qinglu and the two to send their mother back to the house.

Wei was discussing this matter with Lin Yu'an, but Xu's mother came over, and when she heard that Wei was talking to Lin Yu'an in the house, she still went directly into the house.

Usually Mother Xu is the person who knows the rules the most, as long as she hears that Lin Yu'an has guests, she will never break in so recklessly, Lin Yu'an said that something happened, and Mother Xu ran in.

"Mother Xu, what's wrong?"

Lin Yu'an asked her not to be in a hurry and said slowly, Mother Xu took two breaths, and then said: "Princess, Yunyan, the concubine in the prince's house fell at the gate of Nanyuan, Zhou Qiao'er came to me and said, I went to see, there were already a lot of maids around, and it was said that the people in Nanyuan beat that Yunyan." ”

Hearing this name, Lin Yu'an felt a little familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere, and she couldn't remember it for a while, but she couldn't think about Yu Hao's concubine who fell in front of her door, and kept saying that it was the people from Nanyuan who beat her.

Wei sneered: "Could it be that the moth over there is something to do, so that people who don't know still think that she grew up reading "The Art of War"!" ”

It has not been a day or two since the Wei family lived in the Rongguo Mansion, and she has also heard of the Ruan family's style.

Lin Yu'an thought of Mrs. Ruan San.

Ruan Lingyin was holding a flower banquet, banqueting the noble ladies in the capital, she didn't want to join in the fun, and she had no aversion to the people of the Ruan family, but as long as she thought about it, she could determine two people, either Ruan Lingyin or Mrs. Ruan.

Anyone other than these two should not have thought of using such a trick. Hearing the increasingly noisy movement outside, Lin Yu'an breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and went out.

At the door, I don't know where so many maids and women poured out, forming a circle.

Nan Yu opened the way in front, and the crowd automatically made a way out, revealing Yunyan lying on the ground and dying.

Lin Yu'an stopped a few steps in front of Yun Yan, and Yun asked her lightly: "Aren't you the maid next to Mrs. Shizi, you still led Mrs. Ruan San past me in the afternoon, how did it become like this now?" ”

She saw that she was trying to open her mouth last night, and a hoarse and dissonant sound came out of her throat, she sighed in her heart, and asked Mother Xu: "Look at her like that, is it smashed?" ”

Mother Xu stepped forward in two steps, touched Yunyan's neck, opened Yunyan's mouth, pinched her chin and looked left and right, and came back to Lin Yu'an and said, "Princess, it is indeed as you expected, her tongue was cut. ”

Not only was his tongue cut off, but even his leg was broken, and his arm didn't know if it was broken or dislocated. Think of a maggot writhing the ground.

The tragic situation makes people shudder.

"I really know people but don't know my heart, I didn't expect the princess to be such a ruthless person!"

The sound in the crowd was like a boulder, completely breaking the temporary calm because of the arrival of Lin Yu'an and a few others.

began to sound constantly to talk about Lin Yu'an's conduct, what poisonous scorpion heart, vicious, Kefu...... Words are as ugly as they sound.

Lin Yu'an sneered in her heart, don't these people just think that the law is not to blame the public, so many people make trouble together, she can't beat everyone to death with a stick, that's why she is so presumptuous.

It's just some people who don't matter, and there is no way to provoke her, Lin Yu'an calmly glanced at Yunyan lying on the ground, and said in a calm voice: "She is like this, she should have been injured for no more than two hours, her calf is slightly swollen, her face has been beaten, and her palms are about to fall apart, it is estimated that it was an hour ago, and the palace had just come back for a pillar of incense, where to harm her?" And it's just a little maidservant, and I have a hundred excuses to kill her, so why do I need to do this? ”

The contempt on Lin Yu'an's face stung the self-esteem of Mrs. Ruan San, who was hiding in the distance and peeking, but the maid Jin Ling beside her said with trepidation that she should go back quickly, in case she was discovered.

When Mrs. Ruan heard this, the anger in her heart surged out, and she wanted to raise her hand and slap the maid's face, but her hand was raised, and she suddenly remembered that they were secretly hiding here, if they attracted people, it would be more than worth the loss, and remembered that she had left the banquet for a while, and if she didn't go back, for fear of arousing suspicion, she put down her hand, scolded the maid in a low voice, and took the lead in the direction of the garden.

"Report it to the yamen, if something like this happens, someone has to deal with it, to see who beat this girl like this, if such a vicious person is a person from the Guogong Mansion, then it should not be let go, if someone from outside comes into the mansion to do this kind of thing, it must not be tolerated, such a person will become a scourge sooner or later!"

Listening to her righteous words, everyone began to waver.

Some people were only instigated by others, and they didn't understand this matter very well, and when they heard this, they began to be skeptical.

Wei said: "There is a law in the world, speak with evidence, today this Yunyan fell in Nanyuan, but if it fell at the door of your house, wouldn't it be on your head?" Do you admit it or not? ”

Anything is, as long as their own interests are involved, everyone will feel uncomfortable, hearing Wei's words, the maids lowered their heads and exchanged their ears, this one shook his head, that waved his hand, and he looked like he couldn't avoid it.

Lin Yu'an didn't want to continue to look at the faces of these people here, so he turned to Wei and said, "Third uncle, let's go back." ”

Enough is enough, sometimes it can achieve better results, Nanyu went to ask the doctor to come over, but when the doctor came, Yunyan swallowed.

It's not an unusual thing, and it's just that a maid died, but this incident was not an accident, but someone deliberately did it, so Lin Yu'an didn't plan to settle things like this.

When she returned to the house, she discussed with Wei what she had talked about earlier.

Whether Brother Heng is born to the Qi family or not is only one step away from proving in the end.

That is the recognition of relatives by blood.

But this matter is not easy, if you want to persuade Wang Zhongguo to do this, I am afraid that it will take a lot of words.

This is also reasonable, after all, no one wants to believe that the son he has raised for so long is not his own son, and this son is still the only son he holds in the palm of his hand.

Wei Shi sighed when she thought of this, she originally wanted to find out the crux of these misfortunes, but now things have reached an uncontrollable situation, and they have become to bring down Qi Shi.

The identity of the Qi family is there, and he has been operating in the capital for many years, his power should not be underestimated, and there is also a powerful backer of Heng Wangye, it is too difficult to bring her down, but now there is an Achilles heel, that is, Brother Heng.

Today's Heng Wang Ye is Qi's own nephew, because of the age difference, the relationship between the two aunts and nephews has always been very good, because of Qi's murder and miscarriage, Qi's nephew Qi Yun almost had a fight with his eldest uncle Wang Zhongguo.

Many people still remember this matter vividly, but no one dared to mention it again, and Wei knew it in his heart, and he also felt that it was really a little tricky.

Today, in order to find out the truth, they have already startled the snake, if there is any movement at this time, I am afraid that the Qi clan will do it immediately.

Lin Yu'an felt a little headache, she thought of Yu Jia again in her heart, it would be good if he was there, he must know what to do, with him, she really didn't have to worry too much.

Her thoughts were cut off here, she didn't want to think about where Yu Jia was, and Yu Jia's departure had become a wound that she could avoid.

He will never come back.

I don't know if it's because of this reason that the child in her belly will be so obedient, she was seriously happy when she was pregnant with Brother Sheng'er and Sister Shu'er, but she didn't have any uncomfortable reaction when she was pregnant with this child.

This made her feel very comforted and distressed.

After discussion, Wei proposed to lie dormant for a period of time, and after a period of time, Qi relaxed his vigilance before taking action.

Lin Yu'an felt that the third aunt was reasonable, and nodded in agreement.
