Chapter 422: Taibai Building
When Xuan Shao heard this, he looked at Sanniang's eyes full of smiles.
Sanniang glared at Xuan Shao: "Later, when Bai Lan went to inquire about the Earl's Palace, she happened to encounter some things, so she mentioned the matter of the biological father of the eldest lady of the Earl's Palace, and I knew that there was such a person as Ding You." ”
Xuan Shao nodded: "I see." Uncle Ding's identity before going to Northern Xinjiang was indeed the eldest son of the Earl's Court. ”
Sanniang thoughtfully: "When did he return to Beijing?" Did you come with you? ”
Although Xuan Shao was a little puzzled why Sanniang asked this, he still said: "Because I still have some things to deal with in Northern Xinjiang, they left two days late." ”
Sanniang rolled her eyes: "Then, where will he settle down after he comes back?" Have you ever gone back to Earl's Court? ”
Xuan Shao glanced at Sanniang with a smile: "You want to ask, is what happened in the Earl's Mansion a few days ago related to him?" ”
Sanniang was speechless, and after thinking about it, the impression of her gossip had already left Xuan Shao behind, so she simply broke the jar and said confidently: "Yes, I'm just curious." The Earl's Court is also a high-ranking house, guarded by countless people in the inner and outer courtyards. How could a young lady and a man run out of the Earl's Court so unnoticed? It would be impossible to say that they didn't have helpers, or that no one was deliberately helping them in the dark. Unless this son of the Li family is like you, Young Master Xuan, he can fly the eaves and walk the wall, and he has developed the ability to explore the boudoir at night. ”
Xuan Shao was embarrassed, he didn't expect the war to affect him: "Although Uncle Ding is my subordinate, I haven't asked about his private affairs. If you really want to know. I can't help but ......."
"Stop-" Sanniang hurriedly pinched Xuan Shao's arm to stop his words, and said angrily: "I'm just asking casually, who is going to take care of their family's affairs!" ”
Xuan Shao chuckled: "Since that's the case, then let's leave it at that." Otherwise, I'm too embarrassed to ask. ”
Sanniang thought for a while, squinted her eyes slightly, and said, "Why do you seem to know about these things that have happened in Beijing recently?" When I brought it up, you weren't a stranger. ”
Xuan Shao was helpless: "I naturally listened to some reports from the people below, how could I not know anything?" ”
All right. She seemed to have forgotten that this man was actually the head of the secret service. Agents, naturally, everything needs to be known, wrapping the owner. Xijia short gossip! Sanniang thought maliciously.
Xuan Shao seemed to know what Sanniang was thinking, and he couldn't help pinching her slightly bulging cheeks, which successfully caused two big eyes.
The two of them are having a sweet and sweet fight. Someone outside was talking, and he wanted Xuan Shao to go out for a while.
Xuan Shao let go of Sanniang and said with a smile: "It must be Wang Jing's business, I'll go out first." I'll be back for dinner with you later. ”
Xuan Shao got up and went out, Sanniang sat there alone, and she didn't feel bored watching the people coming and going on the street downstairs.
After a while, Bai Ying came in and sent someone from the kitchen to ask when the food could be served. Sanniang saw that Xuan Shao hadn't come back yet, thinking that he might accompany everyone over there to have a few drinks first, so she said, "Don't go for the time being, wait for the young master to come back." ”
"The slave asked the kitchen to bring you a soup first?" Sanniang has the habit of drinking soup before meals. Bai Ying was afraid that Sanniang would be hungry.
Sanniang shook her head: "No need, I'm not hungry, there are so many snacks here." "There were refreshments on the table, as well as her favorite jade bean cake and glutinous rice cake.
Bai Ying retreated and gave instructions to the people in the kitchen.
Sanniang picked up a piece of jade bean cake and took a small bite. While chewing, I watched the flow of people outside the window.
At this time, there are already more people outside than just now, presumably the people who have just gone to Dongcheng to see the excitement have returned, and it is almost time for lunch.
Several women walked with baskets of vegetables in their hands, talking merrily, while a young man selling sugar beside him shouted as he walked. It was followed by a group of small dolls with hara.
These are very life-like pictures, and suddenly Sanniang's smile froze on her lips, and her gaze fell fixedly on a tall man behind the group of children who were selling candy.
The man was tall and strong, with a dark complexion, a rough silhouette, and deep features. Dressed in an ordinary old cyan clothes, he was dressed like some hard-working people, but he had a different temperament from those who were struggling to survive at the bottom of society.
The man was also surrounded by a man dressed about the same as him, only slightly shorter, with a face similar to him, and a strong build.
The two of them were talking as they walked, but their glasses kept looking around, as if it was a habit.
Seeing the taller man's glasses sweeping towards this side, Sanniang subconsciously moved her body back. Despite her position, people outside couldn't see her at all.
"Bailan." Sanniang frowned and called softly.
There was a sound of soft footsteps, and Bai Lan walked in. Although Xuan Shao came back, Bai Lan still stayed by Sanniang's side and did not leave. But sometimes, it is indeed more convenient to have Bailan here.
"Do you look outside and see two tall men dressed in gray? Be careful, don't let them find out about you. ”
Bai Lan looked out a little strangely, although the two of them were dressed very ordinary, but their appearance was outstanding, Bai Lan nodded: "I saw them." Hey? Who are they? Seems to be very alert. ”
Bai Lan also hid her body a little inside, and said with some doubts.
"You go downstairs to find the young master and ask him to send someone to follow. The skills are better, these two have good kung fu. Sanniang commanded.
Bai Lan knew that there might really be something wrong with the two of them, although she was curious about who it was, but she also knew that now was not the time to say this, so she immediately nodded and left.
Sanniang sat at the table frowning, thoughtful.
I didn't expect to see him again, it's really a bit fateful, but I don't know what he entered Beijing for at this time.
After a while, Xuan Shao returned.
Sanniang saw Xuan Shao, and didn't wait for him to ask, so she said, "I've seen these two people before." I don't know if Prince Li has mentioned to you what happened when he was assassinated in Yanzhou a few years ago. ”
Xuan Shao thought for a while and frowned: "You mean, those two people just now had something to do with that incident?" ”
Sanniang nodded affirmatively: "I'm not sure about the shorter one, but the tall one is the assassin who assassinated the prince back then." I remember his name as Hadan Batar, a native of the Garing ethnic group of Northern Mongolia. ”
"Hadanbaatle?" Xuan Shao leaned against the window, looking out while frowning and repeating the name.
Sanniang smiled: "It's really a coincidence, the last time I met him was in Taibai Building." As for remembering his name, he really emphasized it many times at that time, and it was difficult for Sanniang to remember it.
This Assassin was also a man of affection. It's just that the thing he once did is really incomprehensible.
"The second prince of Mongolia just entered Beijing, and they also happened to appear in Beijing. Is there really no pity in it? Sanniang was puzzled: "However, I remember reading a book that said that although the Garing tribe is also a Mongolian tribe, it has a feud with the Warat tribe who now unify all Mongolian tribes. Therefore, after the unification of the steppe in the Warat tribe, the Garing tribe moved north, and the two sides did not communicate with each other. ”
"When are you reading the book?" Xuan Shao looked at Sanniang with a smile.
Sanniang was stunned: "It was during the Jianwu period." How? Already an old calendar? ”
Sanniang was a little annoyed, there were very few books written about foreigners, and Jianwu Nian's book was already the closest she could find. So it was inconvenient to say that in ancient times, she didn't know the history of this world in the first place, and all she knew came from books. It is really not easy for a small tribe like the Garing tribe to the north to find information.
Xuan Shao saw the chagrin in Sanniang's eyes, smiled and comforted: "It's not an old calendar." It was only a few years ago that there was a civil strife among the Garing tribes, and some of them began to move back to the south, and now Southern Mongolia is all the territory of the Warat tribe. Therefore, although there are still conflicts between the two races, they are not old and dead. ”
Sanniang muttered: "It's not about feuds!" It's only been a few years! What a bunch of unscrupulous descendants! ”
Seeing this, Xuan Shao could only smile and comfort: "If you are interested in the affairs of Northern Xinjiang, I will sort out some records for you to see tomorrow, and there are tribes smaller than the Jialing clan." ”
Sanniang was overjoyed when she heard this, she didn't expect that marrying Xuan Shao would have this benefit? Marrying him is really the most correct decision in two lifetimes combined.
Xuan Shao was very helpless when he saw Sanniang's eyebrows and smile. No wonder when his father was alive, he always said that women were the most coaxing, although he only coaxed Sanniang alone, but his father also told the truth and didn't brag about it, which is really rare.
Sanniang naturally didn't hear Xuan Shao's heart, but she seemed to remember something: "These are what my father left back then, right?" ”
Xuan Shao nodded: "Most of them were left by my father." "Some of the recent years are recorded by him.
Sanniang's eyes rolled: "Is there any one in southern Xinjiang?" ”
Xuan Shao stretched out his finger and flicked it lightly on Sanniang's forehead, and said with a smile: "Yes, let's sort it out for you together." ”
Sanniang ignored the slight pain in her forehead and covered her forehead with joy.
At this time, someone outside reported that Wang Jing was here.
Sanniang hurriedly let people in, Wang Jing came in and saw Sanniang very happy: "Sister, I didn't know that you were here today." ”
Sanniang, Xuan Shao and Wang Jing sat down separately.
It can be seen that Wang Jing is very happy today, his eyes are very bright, Sanniang has lived with him for many years, so she naturally guessed why he was happy, and she couldn't help but be even more moved by what Xuan Shao did for her.
Ding You had just chased the two Mongols, and Master Deng had something to do to go first.
Sanniang saw that today's opportunity was rare, so she left Wang Jing to eat together. Xuan Shao naturally had no objections.
