Chapter 172: Moonlit Night Assassination

Wanying stood there without moving, Aunt Lin stepped forward, twisted the box, and pulled the copper ring at the closure, and the box opened.

Sure enough, the silver bricks of ten taels were neatly placed in the box, which was the unique regulation of the Pavilion to reward silver, and there were several ingots on it, which was about the silver of Wanyun's share. All that's left is a few ordinary pieces of gold jewelry.

"Confused." Master Shi slammed the teacup on the small table.

"The old man is angry, but it is not a treasure in the palace, it may not be registered, it seems that it is Wanyun's own body and silver, it is his own body, he uses it or his own mother, who can say no word?"

"Daddy, there seems to be a letter here." Wan Ying saw a moon-white piece of paper sandwiched between the side of the box.

"Bring it." The tone of the teacher was unquestionable.

Now that the box had been opened, Wanying took out the piece of paper and handed it to Master Shi.

Master Shi didn't answer, but only reached out and picked up the teacup on the small table, and said in his mouth, "You read." ”

Again, there is no doubt about it. Wan Ying took back the letter and expanded:

mother

Zhan Xin'an.

Yun'er is all right, the sisters in the palace treat Yun'er like their own sisters, and His Majesty also seems to have a good eye for Yun'er, and said in private; After the New Year, she may have to be promoted to Yuner's position. Mother, let's finally get out. You keep the money that you brought back with the letter. Yun'er has everything in the palace, and it's useless if she can't call it, it's better to give it to her mother, if her uncle comes to ask her mother for money, her mother won't be distressed.

Also, my mother doesn't want to entangle with Aunt Lin anymore, first, my father doesn't like it, second, Wanying will soon be the concubine of Prince Rong, and third, Yun'er doesn't want to be estranged from Wanying because of her mother's affairs, and the past things will pass.

The weather is cold and dry, and my mother kindly remembers to take care of herself. Yun'er is all right, don't worry about it.

Yun'er bowed

Wanying read the letter, her mouth was like a big spoonful of mustard, so hot that she choked on tears in her eyes, and her nose was so hot that her whole face was confused.

The rich sadness only lowered her brows, but it was in her heart, Wanying only felt that her heart was also hot and suffocating, and only the overwhelming tears could suppress this pain. Holding the letter, he kept scolding in his heart: Wanyun, you are such a fool, since you have so much silver, why bother those dog slaves to entertain you. Even if Aunt Gao is strapped for money at home, she has no worries about food and clothing, you have wronged yourself, and you would rather let others laugh at you and save up this silver. He really is the stupidest fool in the world.

"Master, for Yun'er's sake, forget it, after all, she is also the emperor's nobleman now, and she has won the honor of the title."

"Woman's kindness, let me tell you the truth, last time the house was robbed, do you think it was really for the family's money? The treasury is in the east, why did you search for the Treasure Pavilion, if it wasn't for the night you said you wanted to chant the scriptures, went to the Buddha Hall. It's your life that I want. ”

After a moment of suspicion, the mother sighed with relief: "Master......"

"Mother, what did you say? Wanying is not here, what happened? ”

"Yuxin, you know everything, don't say anything, and plead for her, like this kind of slut who is inferior to pigs and dogs, if it weren't for Wanyun's affection, I could still keep her."

"The master also said it, it's for Wanyun's sake, and now that you are imprisoning her like this, it's hard to guarantee that Wanyun will know one day."

"Don't say it again, she knows what, is it possible that she can still let the emperor kill me." Master Shi said that his breath was backing and coughing again and again.

Aunt Lin jumped up, Master Shi raised his hand to hold her mother and sat down, and said sadly: "I can't die." ”

"Master, speak well, how can you say such an obscure thing."

Master Shi smiled, and took care of his breath with his hands, the black ingot-patterned robe was tied with a red silk belt in the middle, and the originally flat clothes were swallowed with the breath of Daddy, and they also fluctuated high and low.

"Master, Master Zhang and Master Zhou from the yamen are here, and they are now waiting in the Zhengyan Hall." The maids were not there, and the housekeeper Lian Jin shouted at the attic outside the courtyard.

Master Shi patted Aunt Lin's hand and got up to go downstairs.

"Mother, are you still going to hide it from Qing'er?"

"The eldest young master has already killed the leader of the gang of thieves, which can be regarded as angry for his mother."

"Brother?"

Yun Niang said that when she heard that there was an assassin in Xizhen Pavilion, the eldest young master came in his bedclothes and carried a sword, and his wife couldn't stop him. It also happened that day was the death day of your dead grandparents, and every year my mother spent all night chanting and burning paper for them. Aunt Lin was sad and wept: "Daddy and mother know, bless Yuxin in heaven to escape." ”

"Mother, who are they? You stay in the mansion all year round, how can you provoke them? ”

"That day, when I heard that assassins entered the house, I quickly blew out the candles in the Buddhist hall, thinking about your father in my heart, and before I walked out of the door of the Buddhist hall, I heard that the gang of thieves turned out to be a Shu accent, and I understood in my heart."

"Aunt Gao's ancestral home seems to be from Yizhou."

A few days later, Aunt Gao's brother was killed by several loan sharks because of gambling debts. In this way, I was more sure of the doubts in my heart. ”

Wanying's hanging heart finally put it into her stomach, and she said with relief: "This kind of person is innocent of death, and life is also harmful." ”

"Your father has been up and down all his life, and he can't hide anything from his eyes, although those assassins have already corrected the law on the spot at that time, but even my mother can hear the doubts, can your father not understand?"

"Then why did the mother still ask her father to forgive her?" Wanying said.

"She looks at Lingli and is actually confused, and she has been infatuated with your father all her life, she would rather be hurt herself than hurt your father. She was most likely unaware of the Assassin's incident, and even if she did, she was dissuaded from doing so. She doesn't have that kind of guts and plans, and your father understands that. That's why she's completely safe afterwards. After Aunt Li finishes this matter of Aunt Cui, it is estimated that it will not be long before she will receive your father's punishment. The penalty is one year's monthly punishment, and the worst sentence is imprisonment. ”

Wanying suddenly realized that Aunt Gao was imprisoned in Dongbao Building, but she was still treated as an aunt. If Daddy really resents her, how can he provide her with delicious food and drink?

Aunt Lin quietly picked up the needle and thread again, the smooth cotton silk, cold and smooth, and the most cool and suitable for summer wear.

People's hearts are like cotton silk in this winter, looking smooth but actually cool. Wanying stroked the soft and cold bedclothes and said: "Mrs. naturally needless to say, Aunt Li has Shao Bai and Wan Rong, although Aunt Gao has no children, but Wan Yun is now the emperor's favorite concubine, they are not afraid that they will not get benefits in the future, so in contrast, Aunt Zhao's mother's family is a rich family in Beijing, and she has no children and no daughters and nothing to fight for, but Aunt Cui, who is still young, only Shao Yang and Wan Ping, so they are making trouble to separate the family......"

Aunt Lin nodded and said, "If you only look at the surface, you won't see anything." Just like this stitch, if you don't identify it carefully, who knows that there are so many needles and threads hidden in this dense pattern. "At the end of the line, Aunt Lin deftly wrapped a knot, closed her teeth lightly, and bit the last rope." If you use a knife to kill people well, then you have the ability to use a thousand pounds, and if you don't use it well, you can't kill others but hurt yourself. ”

Wanying suddenly brightened up and said, "Mother is Aunt Cui." ”

"That's right, she instigated Aunt Gao to quarrel with me a few years ago, Aunt Gao was warm with her for a while at first, and it is estimated that she also understood her sinister intentions later, plus Wanyun entered the palace, Aunt Gao didn't have to look at her face anymore, so the two quickly turned their faces, and even I was shocked at home."

"In those years, Aunt Gao targeted us everywhere, and most of them were behind Aunt Cui's back."

"She is also smart but was mistaken by cleverness, seeing that Aunt Gao couldn't get around, she was close to Aunt Li."

"Aunt Li's city is much deeper than Aunt Gao's, how can she be at the mercy of Aunt Cui."

"That's right, Aunt Cui thinks that she will let Aunt Li take the lead in breaking up the family, and she will reap the benefits of the fisherman."

"I didn't expect my dad to eat this set, which made her chicken and eggs."

"Aunt Li estimated that she had already calculated it, if this plan succeeded, of course she would benefit a lot, if she didn't succeed, she would count the bad debts on Aunt Cui's head, and she wouldn't suffer a loss."

Wan Ying smiled and said, "It's still Aunt Li's deep way, and Aunt Cui can be regarded as lifting a stone to hit her own feet this time." ”

"She is so proud in the house, how can she let Aunt Li eat melons and eat melons by herself? Therefore, instigating Shao Yang to beat Shao Bai can be regarded as anger. ”

Wanying pursed her lips and said disdainfully: "This is also like Aunt Cui's style, whoever loves to be the first will never suffer." Shao Bai has been frail and sickly since he was a child, Shao Yang is as strong as a calf, his younger brother beats his brother, and only Aunt Cui dares to do such a thing. ”

Aunt Lin nodded and said, "Aunt Li hanged herself and broke up the family, there was nothing, she sat in the house and did nothing, but she was fined by your father for a year." She didn't want to suffer this dumb loss, so she instigated Shao Yang to beat Shao Bai. ”

"Aunt Li was beaten and wronged herself, and she happened to sell miserably in front of her father, but she must not let Shao Yang bully her son."

"With the first time, there can be a second time, not to mention that the family will know in the future, and they will not bully Shao Bai even more."

"It is estimated that Aunt Li also turned around in her heart for a few rounds before deciding to pull out Aunt Cui's fox tail."

"That's right, don't underestimate the heart of being a mother, for the sake of your children, you are not afraid of going up and down the sword mountain and going down to the sea of fire." Aunt Lin said faintly.

"Aunt Li's trick is really amazing."

"My mother was also frightened at the time, but I didn't expect her to really pick out this matter for Shaobai."

"Poor dad got angry, this is Qing'er was really afraid that her father wouldn't be able to stand the blow when he heard about it."

"Mother is also scared, I didn't expect your father to survive."

Wanying secretly admired: "I am worthy of being a mother, I don't have the ability to penetrate the hearts of all people, but I am afraid that I will not be able to stand in the Shifu for many years." In the past, I only felt that she was forbearant and retreated in everything, but now I see that it is the ability of the mother to make her wife scruple about three points. ”
