What happened in Yingxueyuan naturally had some thought in my heart.

In the afternoon, when Wang Jing came back from school, he didn't go to his own yard, but came to Sanniang's side first.

"Brother, why are you here now?" Sanniang said with a smile.

Wang Jing didn't need to be greeted, he first walked to the table and poured a cup of tea, poured it down, and exhaled freely. Only then did he say to the maids in the house: "I have something to tell your young lady, Bai Ying just stay and serve, you all retreat first." ”

Seeing Sanniang nodded, the maids in the house all retreated, leaving only Bai Ying.

"What's the matter with my brother?" Sanniang was a little surprised.

Wang Jing saw that there were only three of them left in the room, so he took out a piece of letterhead from his sleeve and handed it to Sanniang.

It's a very ordinary letterhead, without an envelope. After Sanniang took it, she was not busy opening it, but raised her eyebrows and looked at Wang Jing.

Wang Jing touched his head and said, "When I was in the outer courtyard just now, a servant secretly handed it to me, saying that I wanted to hand it over to you." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Jing smiled embarrassedly: "I'm afraid that there is a problem with the letter, so I will take it apart and take a look at it first, sister, you won't blame me, right?" "The exchange of letters between the woman of the inner court and the people of the outer court is a private sin, and he cannot take this risk. But he also believed in his sister.

Sanniang naturally understood Wang Jing's hard work, and was also happy that he could grow this heart, so she shook her head with a smile and said that she didn't mind.

opened the letterhead, and Sanniang saw Xuan Shao's handwriting on it: The person has fled, hand it over to me.

"Sister, I've watched it back and forth many times but I can't see it. Who is the man who escaped? And who is this messenger? Wang Jing wondered.

Sanniang was shocked when she saw the content of the letter. The person fled, and it should be the grandmother in the ancestral hall. But since she said that she escaped, not that she was captured, she was going to leave by herself. However, why did she run away? Aren't you afraid that someone will kill her? And where did she flee, and was she caught?

Thinking like this, I heard Wang Jing's question. Sanniang thought about it and told him the whole story. From today's Xuan Shao sending a letter to Wang Jing instead of her, you can know that it is not easy for her, a boudoir woman, to meddle in outside affairs. And Wang Jing, a man who has the opportunity to go out, is a good candidate to contact the outside world.

"Sister, are you saying that the fire in the ancestral hall was just a ghost made by Aunt Liu's mother and daughter? How dare they do that? No way! I'm going to show my grandmother and father! The first reaction was to storm up.

"Wait. Brother! Sanniang stopped Wang Jing, who was about to rush out, and she knew that according to Wang Jing's temperament, she would react like this.

When Wang Jing heard this, he stopped his steps, and saw Sanniang looking at him helplessly, Wang Jing knew that he was excited again this time, but he was just ......

"Sister, Aunt Liu and Erniang have gone too far this time! As a descendant of the royal family, if I knew that there was something wrong with this matter. If you don't tell the elders about this, you will feel uneasy. ”

Sanniang nodded: "Brother, your idea is right, but if we don't have evidence, what can we use to prove them?" After all, this is not a trivial matter. If you are not careful, you will be grabbed by someone and bite back. The gains outweigh the losses. ”

"How is there no evidence? The woman in the ancestral hall is obviously the one who knows! ”

"You're right." Sanniang nodded: "The problem is that the mother-in-law ran away." ”

Wang Jing sat down a little dejected when he heard this: "Sister, you are just too kind-hearted." As soon as you find this woman that day, you should bring her to your grandmother and father, and ask her to tell the elders about Aunt Liu's deeds. It's good now, I don't know where the people have gone, and maybe they will be killed by them. ”

Sanniang shook her head: "I only found out that this mother-in-law had been found on my grandmother's birthday yesterday, but yesterday was not a good time to make a big deal about it." The burning of the ancestral hall is a major event, and the Liu family is considered a member of the Wang family no matter what, and it is a great crime of disrespect to set fire to the ancestral hall with the things given by the emperor. There were a lot of people in the courtyard yesterday, if this matter is accidentally spread, the entire Wang family will be unlucky, I can't take this risk. ”

She doesn't care about the safety of the Wang family, but there are eggs under the nest? Xue Meixin is a prime example.

"Then can we spare them like this time?" Wang Jing remembered the anger he suffered when his mother was alive, and his hands couldn't help but clench into fists, he was unwilling.

"Of course not." When Sanniang saw Wang Jing's expression, she naturally knew what she was thinking.

She stepped forward and patted Wang Jing's arm gently: "Brother, don't worry, this matter won't end like this." ”

"But you just said that this matter can't be made big, otherwise it will drag down the entire family, so what else can we do." Wang Jing said with red eyes.

Sanniang looked at Wang Jing and smiled: "Brother, you don't know. The crimes that can be made public in this world are actually relatively light. Although many felonies cannot be exposed, it does not mean that the perpetrator will not be punished. ”

"Sister, are you saying that even if you can't deal with it according to the clan rules, grandmother and they won't let Aunt Liu go?" Wang Jing thought for a while.

Sanniang nodded, if the Liu family's crime of burning the ancestral hall was confirmed. Then the best way for the Wang family to deal with this matter is to quietly ask Aunt Liu for the crime, and the punishment will definitely not be light.

"It's just that the top priority is to find that grandmother and don't let her fall into the hands of the other party, otherwise, everything will be in vain." Originally, she had already thought that after the Sun family's birthday banquet was over, she would expose this matter without a trace, and then calculate the credit to Aunt Cui's head.

"Sister, this Xuan Gongzi, why does he want to help us?" Wang Jing suddenly thought of this, and looked at Sanniang with some suspicion.

Sanniang thought for a while and said, "I have helped him a few times by coincidence before. Although it is just a trivial matter, Xuan Gongzi has always remembered it, and he himself is a little chivalrous, so he is willing to help us. ”

Wang Jing has always admired those who have a chivalrous heart, and he was happy when he heard this: "So I can rest assured." That Xuan Gongzi looks cold, but he doesn't want to be a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside. When I see him in the future, I will definitely thank him. ”

Sanniang nodded: "In this matter, since Gongzi Xuan promised to help us come forward to find someone, then brother, you can rest assured." ”

……

Sanniang and Wang Jing were talking here, but they didn't want to go back from Wang's house in the morning, and the fourth old lady Lian came to the door again at this time.

Lian walked all the way, the look on her face was very serious, and the mother-in-law and maids who followed her lowered their heads and didn't dare to make a sound.

Lian's all the way to the main room of Sun's Songling Courtyard, because he knew that someone must have gone in early in the morning to report, Lian's never stopped a step, and directly lifted the curtain and went in.

At this time, Sun was asking Erniang about yesterday's birthday ceremony, and when he saw Lian entering the room with such a straight face, he was very surprised: "Fourth sister-in-law? What are you? ”

Lian Shi said to the mothers-in-law and maids in the house: "You go out first, I have something to discuss with your old lady." ”

The mothers-in-law and maids in the house all looked at Sun when they heard this, and Sun was displeased in his heart, frowning and said, "Fourth sister-in-law, what are you doing here?" ”

Lian's gaze stopped at Erniang, who was kneeling in front of Sun, and couldn't help but pause: "This is the daughter of the concubine in your third room?" What did she do? ”

Sun was annoyed in his heart, and said with a straight face: "Fourth sister-in-law, this is my housework, and you are too lenient, right?" ”

When Lian heard this, he laughed angrily: "Okay, okay, this is your family's housework." You're fifty years old, and you can't even take care of such a little housework! The twelfth brother has never been a director, and the clan knows it, I see that although you are a little stubborn on weekdays, but you are finally from everyone's background, I think you always know some rules, not to mention anything else, according to the rules will not go wrong, right? ”

Speaking of this, Lian suddenly raised his voice: "It's a pity, I really think highly of you, you can be so confused!" Our royal family is almost ruined at the hands of you stupid woman with shallow knowledge! Do you think I'm too wide? All right! Let's open an ancestral hall, let all the clan elders come and see if this matter is something we should take care of! Otherwise, do you have to wait until you are raided and exterminated to regret that you were blind and let your house be the patriarch and take charge of the ancestral hall? ”

Sun was first scolded by Lian's series of angry scoldings, and then he was shocked again.

Although Lian's words are not polite on weekdays, she will finally save some face in front of others. Today, in front of so many maids and mothers-in-law and Erniang, the junior, he scolded her so mercilessly.

"Go down first." The Sun family still waved the maids and mothers-in-law away.

Although Lian is tough, he is not a person without a target. She was so angry today, something must have happened. What's more, the Sun family didn't want to lose face in front of his subordinates again. And Lian obviously doesn't plan to save face for her today.

The maids and mothers-in-law all retreated, and Erniang, who was kneeling in front of Sun, was already pale when she heard Lian mention the ancestral hall.

"You go down first, too." Sun instructed Erniang.

Erniang took several breaths to keep her knees from softening, but she still stumbled a little when she got up.

Lian noticed that Erniang's face was not quite right, walked up to her, stared at her coldly and said, "Wait." Why are you so panicked? But what do you know? ”

Sun also looked at Erniang suspiciously.

"No, I don't know anything. I...... The niece and granddaughter just knelt for a long time, and some of them couldn't stand steadily. Erniang clenched her hands into fists, her nails dug deep into the flesh, took a deep breath, and said slowly. (To be continued)
