Zhan Huai was surprised and asked, "The long history of the Eldest Princess's Mansion?" Did the second brother ask you to check? ”

Hua Sanniang shook her head: "That's not it, the slave maid listened to Huo Jiuye's friend Uncle Huang." ”

"Uncle Huang, what kind of Huang Xianjun is that?" Zhanhuai heard Huo Roufeng mention Huang Xianjun more than once, and at the same time as Gaosheng Hu, Huo Roufeng asked Huang Xianjun to help, and he left under the nose of Jinyiwei's spies.

Hua Sanniang followed Huo Roufeng to Tianxianglou that day, Huo Roufeng saw Xie Sicheng coming out of Jiangnan Baomo Zhai from the window, and Huang Xianjun said that he had seen Shi Yuan in the semicolon of Jiangnan Baomo Zhai Gongyuan Front Street.

Huo Roufeng didn't let her check Shi Yuan, but Shi Yuan was the long history of the Eldest Princess's Mansion, and it was about Zhanyu, so Hua Sanniang made her own initiative to investigate.

Xie Sicheng again?

Zhan Huai remained silent and said, "Does Shi Yuan know Xie Sicheng?" ”

Hua Sanniang said: "This Boss Xie is cautious, and the slaves and maids can't find out about him, but Shi Yuan is different, Shi Yuan's wife has a docile temperament and lacks the ability to be in charge of the family, so the management of the Shi family's back house is not strict, and the maids and daughters-in-law have loose mouths." The slave maid only went to Shi's house three times, and then found a messenger, and she heard that Shi Yuan's father had died ten years ago. ”

Zhan Huai was puzzled and asked, "His father died ten years ago, is there anything wrong with that?" ”

Hua Sanniang said: "Shi Yuan came out ten years ago. ”

Zhan Huai suddenly understood, and he said: "Shi Yuan was out of office during the filial piety period, didn't the officials find out?" ”

Hua Sanniang said with a smile: "I think someone has hidden it, otherwise how could no one know." ”

Shi Yuan was born in the imperial examination, but he was only 56th in the second list, and he was 67th in the second list that year, he was ranked behind, and he had no background, so the teacher would not take him seriously.

is such a person, but someone concealed the fact that he was in the filial piety period and let him go out smoothly.

Zhan Huai became interested and said, "Okay, you continue to check, if he really has something to do with Xie Sicheng......

Speaking of which, Zhanhuai paused, Xie Sicheng ten years ago was only eight or nine years old, and Shi Yuan's affairs should have nothing to do with him.

But Xie Sicheng is a mystery, he has asked people to check for so long, but he has never found out the origin of Xie Sicheng's identity, this person seems to have collapsed from a stone, suddenly appeared, and people have no trace.

"Wait, I think of a person, you can check it out with him", Zhanhuai called Hua Sanniang, who was about to withdraw, and continued, "Huo Jiangfu, the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. ”

Hua Sanniang went in response, Zhanhuai knocked on her head, why did she only think of going to Chahuojiang now.

There was one thing he hadn't told anyone, including Huo Roufeng.

When he was in Wuxi that day, he once met the abbot of Wanhua Temple alone.

Coincidentally, the abbot master is a native of Fujian, and was adopted by a monk in Fujian since he was a child. When the Japanese people went ashore and killed his master, and he was rescued, the then Min Guogong, that is, Zhanhuai's grandfather, saw that this little novice was lonely, so he sent someone to send him to a famous temple in Fujian, just a monk of Wanhua Temple traveled here, saw that the little novice was smart and clever, he liked it very much, so he accepted him as an apprentice, took him back to Wuxi, and when he left, the little novice also ran alone to the door of the Minguo Mansion, respectfully kowtowed three times.

Lang Qing beside Zhanhuai was a scout, and soon found out that the abbot of Wanhua Temple had received the favor of the Zhan family when he was a teenager, so Zhanhuai went to see the abbot alone.

It was because of this kindness that Wanhua Temple contributed to the investigation of the Meihualing matter, and thus led to the Zhao family and cut off King Qing's financial route.

In addition, Zhanhuai also learned one thing from the abbot of Wanhua Temple.

This is also known by coincidence.

Master Huo Peiran of Hangzhou is not only a big pilgrim of Wanhua Temple, but also in Wanhua Temple, there are two ever-bright lanterns, which are enshrined by Master Huo for his two daughters, and the names of these two daughters are Huo Rouyun and Huo Roufeng respectively!

Although Zhanhuai didn't know the detailed time of Huo Jiu's birth, he roughly knew what month it was, and Huo Jiu's name was Huo Feng......

I'm afraid that even Mrs. Huo doesn't know that Master Huo once lit an everlasting lamp for their sisters, if she knew, she would never let Huo Jiu step into Wanhua Temple for half a step.

When he learned that Huo Jiu was a woman, Zhanhuai couldn't tell whether he was surprised or happy, and then he received a letter from home, asking him to return to Fujian immediately, he didn't know what was going on with him, and he sent the ghost to Hangzhou.

Therefore, he was unable to return to Fujian within the time requested by his father, and was rewarded with 20 military sticks by his father.

He lay in bed for three days, and before his injuries were healed, he limped onto the warship, because his father said that you don't need to ride a horse in naval battles, and it doesn't matter if you have injuries on your body......

His mother was not at ease, and insisted on sending Ah Quan and Ah You to serve him on the boat, and I don't know if my father knew about it, anyway, when Ah Quan and Ah You followed him, no one said anything again.

For this reason, he was also teased by the third brother, saying that he was the only one in the Zhan family who brought a small servant to the battlefield.

Xiao Jiu's impression of Ah Quan is very good, and he talked to him a few times, but he won't tell Xiao Jiu if he is killed, Ah Quan and Ah You are on the boat to serve him.

He could imagine that when Xiao Jiu heard the news, he must have laughed so much that his stomach hurt.

The men of the Zhan family want to fight and go to war, so like other noble families, the men are married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and the eldest brother Zhanchen is married at the age of thirteen. In order to be able to branch out as soon as possible, most of the daughters-in-law of the Zhan family are older than their husbands, the eldest sister-in-law is three years older than the eldest brother, and the third sister-in-law is also two years older than the third brother.

After the New Year, he will be almost sixteen, he has already had military exploits, before he came out this time, the family had already begun to give him Zhang Luo's family affairs, so he made a big show to buy gifts for Xiao Jiu, and even opened the treasury in the house......

In short, now the Duchess already knows that her youngest son has a sweetheart, and as for which girl it is, he didn't say whether he lived or died.

Later, his father was attacked, and his mother didn't have the heart to care about him anymore.

Thinking of his mother's curious expression, his face was hot.

Mrs. Huo is such a precious sister, Xiao Jiu can't get married until after Jilu, and when he returns to Fujian, he must find a way to persuade his mother not to give him a marriage first.

I came to the capital to see Xiao Jiu this time, and I don't know when I will wait for the next time. Fujian and the capital are thousands of miles apart, and he can't enter Beijing casually, since he wants to marry Xiao Jiu, he can't mention what he said before to let Xiao Jiu go to Fujian to study.

Maybe it's really like what I said last time in Hangzhou, when I saw Xiao Jiu again, she had grown up and become a big girl.

What does Xiao Jiu, who grows into a big girl, look like? Will you unscrupulously lift up her skirt and tie it in a knot, will you pat him on the shoulder and say that a good brother is righteous enough?

Zhanhuai suddenly looked forward to seeing Xiao Jiu in a few years.
