Chapter Forty-Nine: Prison Visits

The atmosphere in the carriage was quiet, and Wen Xuanhou put his hands on his forehead, his breath was calm, as if he was thinking about something.

Hua Xiyan knew very well in her heart that Wen Xuanhou was an upright person, and she was afraid that she had already seen her flowery intestines. If she conceals it, I am afraid it will arouse suspicion and unhappiness. But she truthfully stated her purpose, and Wen Xuanhou would only compare her heart to her heart and give her more sympathy.

"Girl, if Ben Hou doesn't come today, you really want to go to the water prison?"

Hua Xiyan chuckled: "Master Hou won't not come." ”

Wen Xuanhou was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "You believe in Benhou like this? ”

"Naturally!" Hua Xiyan nodded and replied without hesitation.

Wen Xuanhou didn't speak, Hua Xiyan relied on him, so he naturally had nothing to care about. Since this identity is still there, it is naturally good to provide shelter for this girl.

The girls in the capital before were all beautiful in the same style, with the same appearance, dignified manners, and even the words they said were half flattery, which was obviously not the same style as Huaxiyan.

Later, when he arrived at the mansion of Marquis Wenxuan, Marquis Wenxuan took out a pair of ink treasures that had been treasured for many years, which was a picture of the prosperous era painted by the painter Zhang of the previous dynasty. Legend has it that the map covers five states and ten counties, as many as a thousand people, Huaxi Yan also once saw the record in the book, but never saw the real handiwork, I didn't expect it to be here in Wenxuanhou.

From the discussion with Hua Xiyan, Wen Xuanhou found that this woman was extraordinary, open-minded no less than a man, and she could get straight to the essence with every glance and every word.

At noon, Wen Xuanhou left Huaxiyan for dinner, which made Huaxiyan even more flattered. Generally, large families will not leave outsiders for dinner, if so, it is a great recognition of a person.

When Hua Xiyan returned to Washington, it was already evening, and he still had a piece of "National Policy" by Wen Xuanhou in his hand, and Wen Xuanhou Yan continued Hua Xiyan's small seal and asked her to copy a copy for viewing.

"Miss!" As soon as Hua Xiyan entered the house, he greeted Xia with a face full of joy.

"What are you so happy about?"

"Isn't it a great thing that Miss can win the favor of Wen Xuanhou?" Q Xia tilted his head and replied with a grin.

If it weren't for Wen Xuanhou rushing over today, the consequences would be really unimaginable, thinking that he was almost beaten by someone for thirty boards, Wen Xia still had some palpitations.

Hua Xiyan smiled and glanced at Xia, and changed the subject: "Is there a situation with the things that made you stared at before?" ”

Asked Xia Yi to pat his head: "I just want to tell Miss about this!" ”

As he spoke, he asked Xia to approach Huaxiyan, and said shyly: "As Governor Sun said, the Sun Mansion sent someone to take Mrs. Sun back from Zhuangzi." ”

Hua Xiyan nodded, without any look of surprise on his face.

"Since it is now Mrs. Sun's mourning period, the people of the Sun Mansion come and go, and it is not difficult to find out what is going on. I also heard that Mrs. Sun entered the Sun Mansion and went to Sun Gongzi's courtyard, and after a while, she came out to be the leader of the mourning hall, as if she was kind and filial, and she didn't see the arrogance and arrogance before. ”

"It seems that this Zhuangzi is not in vain, he really learned to be obedient." Hua Xiyan said with a light smile.

Hua Xiyan expected that the next few days, the Sun Mansion has been a quiet and peaceful scene, Mrs. Sun stopped the coffin to mourn, and there were no moths during the period, and Sun Muyang was also taken care of by Zhao Qingru, and his body gradually recovered. The imperial history that has always made Sun Zhifu tremble did not come, it seems that it was strange that Wen Xuanhou did not give a following last time, and it seemed that it was where Huaxi Yan was taken away, and it came to an abrupt end.

The atmosphere seems to be too quiet, and compared to the turbulent waves on the surface, the undercurrent of the storm is more confusing, and it is also more terrifying, like walking on thin ice.

On this day, when Huaxi Yan was having breakfast, he was told that a guest was coming.

Hua Xiyan looked up and saw the moonlight of the white flowers at the door, and knew who it was.

Immediately lowered his head, and Huaxi Yanbafeng continued to eat without moving.

Yun Qi sat down opposite Hua Xiyan very familiarly, looked at the porridge and side dishes on the table, and said lightly: "I haven't eaten either, I wonder if Miss Hua can enjoy a bowl of porridge?" ”

Hua Xiyan gestured to Wen Xia, and Wen Xia hurriedly took a white porcelain bowl for Yun Qi.

Yun Qi thanked him softly, and with a flattered expression on his face, he picked up the dishes in front of him and ate them slowly.

The two were silent, but they were extremely harmonious, and there was no embarrassment or discomfort between their gestures, as if such a scene had happened a thousand times.

The sun gradually became angry, and sprinkled a thousand rays of light behind Yun Qi. His pale white shirt was also dyed with a faint smoky light, without any pale color, just making people feel like a white flower slowly blooming from the brilliance, quiet and distant.

"Why is Yun Gongzi here today?" After half an hour, Hua Xiyan wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and asked unhurriedly.

"I thought Miss Hua wouldn't ask me today." Yun Qi's slender finger pressed against his chin, answering the question.

Hua Xiyan looked at the pair of narrow eyes like ancient wells and deep pools, and chuckled: "If you don't eat or sleep, it's naturally not suitable to ask just now." ”

Yun Qi's deep eyes looked back at Hua Xiyan steadily, looking at her raised eyebrows and eyes, which should obviously be charming, but the indifference and natural breath around her were dyed with a little more pure air, and her eyes were a little softer.

"Do you want to go to the prefect's prison?"

Huaxi Yandai raised her eyebrows slightly, as if she was smiling: "Can you go today?" ”

"Nature." Yun Qi nodded, "The matter of Jingshan has gradually gained some eyebrows, but it is not completely certain, so you go to the prefect's prison to visit it, and it just happens to relieve your homesickness." ”

Huaxi's smoke eyes flowed, and he understood a little bit in an instant, and nodded: "Okay." ”

She didn't know how Yun Qi took care of it, and when they arrived at the prefect's prison, the group of guards saluted the two of them slightly, without any hindrance.

The prison was not much different from what she had imagined, dark and damp, dark, and from time to time a prisoner stretched out his hand to cry out for grievances, but I don't know if there was some sincerity in this cry, or if it had long been consumed by this dark time.

Yun Qi didn't call any jailers to come, but just walked towards the front with Hua Xiyan, and when he reached the very end, his figure turned, like a willow and a bright village, and his eyes suddenly opened up.

Yun Qi stopped in front of a cell, Hua Xiyan looked inside, and saw a middle-aged man sitting with his back to them, looking down at something.

Hua Xiyan pursed her lips and gently changed her sentence: "Father." ”

When Huaxian Ling heard this, he turned his head and saw Huaxi smoke outside the railing.

The situation here was much better than Hua Xiyan had imagined, it was morning, the sun was coming in from the east through the fence, and there was no darkness in the cell, nor the pungent smell of mold.

"Here comes the smoke." Hua Xian Ling stood up, dusted the soil from his robe, and walked over.

A jailer came over and opened the door for Hua Xiyan, and then retreated.

Hua Xiyan walked in and saw that there was a wooden bed in this small room, covered with a splendid quilt, although it was very simple, but it was still much better than those stone beds and straw mats. There is a wooden table against the wall, on which are placed the four treasures of the study, as well as the basic wild history miscellaneous talks, and there is a small stone table in the other place, which seems to be used for food. Although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs.

"Father is alright?"

Hua Xian Ling nodded: "Okay, okay, you can also see that there are still prisoners with such treatment?" ”

Speaking of the word "prisoner", Hua Xiyan's voice carried a bit of loneliness and obscurity.

Hua Xiyan blinked, his eyes like water stared at Hua Xian Ling, and asked softly: "On the day of the accident, did my father know what was wrong?" ”

Hua Xian Ling shook his head: "No, it's just like the previous supervisor, but I don't know why this happened." ”

The loneliness in Hua County's words is not only the helplessness and sigh of being in prison, but the sympathy and sigh for those innocent miners.

"Could it be that there was nothing unusual about the other overseers and miners that day?" Hua Xiyan asked persistently.

Hua Xian Ling shook his head very dryly: "These days here, I have seriously thought about what happened that day, from people to things, there is no abnormality. ”

Hua Xiyan's eyebrows tightened, thinking that it would be possible to get no news from here?

Huaxian Ling also frowned, and continued to think deeply, but when his eyes glanced at the wooden fence behind Huaxi Yan, he suddenly said: "I remember, that day, two very good carpenters left from the miners, I thought there was something wrong and came to repair it, so I didn't ask more." ”

"Jingshan should be a professional craftsman, and my father must have seen it, how could he come from an outside lover?"

"I don't know, but the deadline was tight, so I didn't pay much attention." Hua Xian Ling said, his tone full of remorse.

Hua Xiyan pondered for a moment and asked randomly, "Father may draw the faces of those two?" ”

Hua Xian Ling nodded without hesitation: "Although it is a little vague, it is probably okay." ”

After that, Hua Xian Ling turned around and sat down at the table, and carefully took the pen to sketch it, but it was just a moment of effort, and the faces of the two jumped on the paper.

Hua Xiyan picked it up and looked at it, and found that it was the appearance of an ordinary person, and there was nothing special about it, so he put it in his sleeve.

"By the way, Yu'er is gone?"

"Hmm." Hua Xiyan nodded, "Yu'er's regret is that she didn't meet her father before leaving. ”

Huaxian Ling sighed deeply, there was pain in his eyes, and the loneliness in his body was a little better than just now.

"Father, don't worry, I will leave him out in a short time."

Huaxian Ling shook his head: "It's not easy to talk about, the Sun family has made up their minds to deal with us this time, I'm afraid that if they get this opportunity this time, they will definitely not give up." ”

Hua Xiyan hooked his lips, revealing a touch of soft news: "Then the Sun family has fallen, won't my father go out?" ”

Hearing this, Hua Xian Ling suddenly raised his head, and when he saw the cold look on his daughter's beautiful face, his heart moved, and he didn't know how to answer.
