Chapter 31 The Old Lady in the House

Then Beixi and Yan Beishen walked into the house, and I didn't dare to follow too closely, Yan Beiyan's ears were very bright, if he found out that I was eavesdropping, I didn't dare to guarantee what would happen to me.

In this way, after I fed the mosquitoes outside for about ten minutes, Beixi and Yan Beishen came out of it, and then Beixi covered her coat and quickly walked to the gate, and then she left the palace.

"It's not a good habit to listen to the corner, come out."

I thought I was hiding well, but I didn't expect Yan Beishen to find out about me a long time ago, and I was really embarrassed.

walked out from behind the rocks on the side, and then showed a standard eight white teeth smile, but Yan Beishen didn't appreciate it at all.

"Why did you come to the palace again?"

"I hope you can help Qin Chi, and I came to you to negotiate on behalf of Qin Chi and Zhou Liu."

Without further ado, I directly said the reason for this trip, and Yan Beishen also became rare and serious, "The Qin family is now only a shell, what else can negotiate with me, and I haven't already pointed out a clear path to Zhou Liu, why are you saying this now?" ”

"We can't talk here, don't you have a worried person here?"

My meaning was obvious, and Yan Beishen led me to the room where I had discussed things with Beixi before.

"This is the Qin family's Ziyu, I believe you should know what it does, and I will give it to you directly." Saying that, I handed this jade to Yan Beishen, I don't need to tell him a bunch of big truths, he knows more about the stakes than I do.

Yan Beishen also accepted it unceremoniously, his fingertips touched Ziyu, "You know how to grasp the opportunity very well, take retreat as advance, it seems that you gave me a big painting cake, but in fact, I have to snatch this painting cake back for the Qin family, but I wonder how you can so calmly say that you can negotiate with me for the Qin family since you know what happened to Zhou Liu before." ”

"Because I know that you are a fair and honest person, and you will never do such a dirty thing." My answer was sonorous and unequivocal, as if to prove that what I said was true, and even the volume was a little louder.

Yan Beishen was amused by me when he saw my serious appearance, but although his expression was relaxed, what he said made me feel embarrassed, "Don't look at people so simply, I, Yan Beishen, am definitely not a good person." ”

I don't want to dwell too much on whether he is a good person or a bad person, I want a positive reply from him, "You just need to protect Qin Chi's life after he leaves the cell, and someone will help you do it." ”

In the end, Yan Beishen and I came to an agreement, and when he asked me why I was so sure that Qin Chi would be rescued, I told him a proverb, 'Don't reveal the secret of heaven.' ’

"Goo."

I was about to say something else when my stomach began to scream, saying that since I was busy dealing with all these big things, I would have often forgotten such a top priority as how to eat, and if it weren't for my stomach protesting, I might have just fallen asleep like this.

In fact, at this time, it was the time when Mocheng was lively, and I wanted to go out of the house to eat, but Yan Beishen said that I should stay in the house to rest, and then he ordered someone to cook me a bowl of noodles.

Looking at this bowl of noodles with eggs and vegetables, I can't help but think of the noodles that Yan Beiyan cooked for me for the first time when I was in the fontanelle, although the color, flavor and flavor were not up to standard, but it was the best thing I had ever eaten in my life.

I didn't care about any ladylike demeanor, I picked up this bowl of noodles and began to eat it, the strength of this noodle is just right, it may be because I am hungry, so everything is delicious, and after a while, this bowl of noodles will bottom out.

"I knew you were informal, but I never thought you would eat like this, so you like noodles very much?"

"Well, I like it, you, a person who loves me the most cooked for me, and I will never forget it for the rest of my life." Actually, I said this a bit too much, but at this moment, Yan Beiyan's eyes were a little misty, I felt that he might remember something, and when I was about to ask, he regained his senses, "I will arrange the affairs of Qin Chi for him, as for you before the Qin family is out of danger, you are not allowed to go anywhere, just stay in this palace." ”

I nodded, and the corners of Yan Beiyan's rare mouth turned up slightly, as if he was very satisfied with what I had left in the palace.

Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it will be the third day, and although Qin Chi is still alive, he is still locked in the cell, and the two days I have been in the Qingwang Mansion can be said to be a typical woman from a good family.

Taking advantage of this short period of time, I also figured out the doorway in this palace, the housekeeper is a distant relative of the original Xia housekeeper, and most of the other little maids here are people who have been poisoned by the war, but among these people there is the oldest old woman, who looks almost seventy years old, I asked the people in the house, and they all said that they don't know the origin of this old woman, only know that the green prince said to let her stay here to live for a long time.

"Old woman, what are you playing alone?" I saw her staring blankly at the sky outside the window, as if she was missing someone.

Perhaps because no one had spoken to her for too long, she immediately turned to look at me when she heard my voice, and then said happily, "My son is coming back soon, and he said that his commander led them to victory, and wrote back to me to take care of my health, so that I can wait for him to come back and marry his daughter-in-law." ”

This old woman is very familiar with herself, and she has explained all her own affairs in a single sentence, and I don't know what to say to her.

When she saw that I didn't speak, she immediately stepped forward and took my hand, "What's wrong?" Did something happen to my son? ”

"No, don't worry, he'll be back soon." I guess this old woman is probably the mother of a soldier, and then Yan Beishen specially supported her after returning to Mocheng.

My answer made her anxious heart feel much more at ease, and then, as if thinking of something, she immediately moved her steps to the brocade box not far away and took out a few letters, and then walked to me and handed them over, "These are all letters sent back to me by my son, you see that my son is great, follow the god of war to fight the world, my son's face can be stained." ”

I was just about to echo her a few words, but she turned around abruptly, and even the letter in her hand fell to the ground, this letter is only three in total, when I picked it up and saw that one of the three letters was very familiar with the words, this handwriting is clearly my own, could it be that this letter is from my own hand.

"But it's been a long time, my son hasn't written to me for a long time, and I miss him so much."

I opened this familiar letter, the content of the letter is very familiar, this letter seems to bring me back to three years ago, when I went to Fengcheng to find Yan Beishen, and then wrote a lot of letters to those soldiers in the barracks.

This letter is from the child back then, the letter wrote that the mother should not save food, eat all the eggs laid by the old hen in the family, do not sell them, and said that when he comes back, he can marry a daughter-in-law and then fulfill his filial piety by the mother's side, but these good wishes can only be fixed on this yellowed letter paper, the child died in the black fontanelle, died in the night of the city guard.

It turned out that this old woman was his mother-in-law, I remember that I asked Yan Bei Shen what to do with the relatives of these dead soldiers, and he seemed to answer that I would have someone to deal with the aftermath, but I didn't expect that the person who cleaned up the aftermath was Yan Bei Shen.

"Child, why are you crying?" The old grandmother didn't know when she turned around and came to my side, it turned out that I was crying, but I couldn't tell who I was crying for.

Raised his hand and wiped his tears, "Old woman, your son's letter is estimated to be on the way, there has been a lot of fighting in front of me these days, and I am afraid that the letter will not be so easy to send, don't worry, this letter will definitely arrive." ”

"Really, then my wife will believe what you say, son, you have to come back quickly."

I know that I am telling a lie, but if I can let this old woman immerse myself in her own world all the time, it is not a good thing, I think she has Alzheimer's like this.

I didn't dare to stay in this place for longer, and I was going to go back to the room immediately to write a letter to this old woman, but I didn't want the housekeeper in the house to call me, saying that Yan Beishen asked me to go to the vegetable market to see the excitement.

Yan Beishen is not such a gossip person, he has never only cared about the things that should be cared about, wait, what did the housekeeper just say? He's talking about the vegetable market?

"Is Qin Chi going to be beheaded?"

"Yes, the second son of the Qin family should have been beheaded today."

What the! It's really Qin Chi, then Yu Heng said before that he would handle the Qin family's affairs well, so let me not worry about it, but now Qin Chi is about to be beheaded, this is what Yu Heng said before, but I don't have to worry!

I didn't bother to go back to my room to put on my coat in a hurry, and ran straight out, and the housekeeper behind me couldn't stop me.

Out of the palace, go east for a while, and then you can see the famous vegetable market in Meaux, in fact, I have always wondered, why the emperor must kill people in the vegetable market, is it to let the chickens, ducks, fish and pigs that are about to be slaughtered in this vegetable market have a companion?

I hurriedly arrived at the vegetable market before noon, and then I saw that in addition to the confused county lord in Mocheng, there was also Yan Beishen sitting on the high platform, and it turned out that Yan Beishen was the supervisor and beheader!

"Nan Kite, you came here at just the right time, and the show is about to start singing." Leng Si didn't know where this guy came from, and I was startled by his sudden voice.

After patting my frightened heart, I asked, "What the hell is going on, I thought that Qin Chi Tie would definitely not be used in this slaughterhouse." ”

"Slaughterhouse? Haha, Nan Kite, I said that your words are accurate enough, these slaughtered animals are generally livestock, aren't you very interested in Qin Chi, why do you say that people are livestock again? ”
