178 Don't marry

Yin Yu turned his head and saw a starlight flashing in his eyes when he saw her, but it disappeared into his deep pupils in an instant. "So coincidentally?" He held two raw chestnuts in his hand, as if he was very leisurely, then looked around and said, "Why did you run out?" ”

Xie Wan smiled, stood next to him, and also picked up the chestnuts in the basket of the two stall owners' old women, and said, "I'm here to buy chestnuts too." ”

Because the entire alley is full of residents, there are not many people passing by. But Yin Yu still inadvertently moved behind her. Looking at his broad back, her chances of being seen were greatly diminished.

Xie Wan didn't feel it, and was still seriously watching the old woman fry chestnuts. In the past, when Yin Yu was still Huo Yu, he always stood behind her like this when she went out, and she didn't feel any difference now.

Yin Yu lowered her eyes and looked at her black hair and snow muscles, her eyes were dense, like waves in ancient wells.

The early summer breeze blew softly, and her broken hair moved lightly with the wind, graceful like her posture when she walked.

Yin Yu's eyes became more and more distant, but the corners of his lips were pouting with a hint of peace.

"Alright, it's yours."

Xie Wan turned around, handed him a bag of chestnuts, and then went to pick up another one. She held the paper bag in her hand, did not eat it, but looked at him and said, "Why are you here?" Looking for me? ”

"How is that possible?" Yin Yu quickly denied it, and then looked at the sky, "I just happened to be passing by." ”

Xie Wan thought for a moment and said with a smile: "I guess you can't come to me either." ”

Then she walked around him and stepped into the house.

"Hey."

Yin Yu suddenly shouted from behind.

Xie Wan turned around within the threshold. He paused. said: "I have something I want to tell you, so it's inconvenient for me to come there." ”

Xie Wan looked back at the door, and the carriage was still parked under the big locust tree.

My brother shouldn't have known that she was back at this time, since it was about the docks, it must be something important. The people in Yin Mansion are all Yin Yu's own people, and they won't spread it out.

She nodded, and let Qian Zhuang put the carriage again.

Soon arrived at the Yin Mansion, and actually walked through the corner gate directly into the main courtyard.

Yin Yu led her into the main hall, which had doorways on all sides leading to other places, so people everywhere could see inside the house. Under the curtain is the familiar agarwood incense. Xing Zhu and they stood at the door. It does not disturb them to speak, but also hears the call in time.

Xie Wan said: "What's the matter?" ”

The advantage of speaking in front of familiar people is that you don't need those politenesses at all.

Yin Yu said casually: "It's a matter of Cao Yun." ”

Xie Wan nodded and said seriously: "The suspicious traces you found on the dock have already told me about it last time. Is there anything new to discover this time? She picked up the chestnuts from the paper bag. But I found that there was not even a bunch of skinning maids in this house. I had to do it myself.

Yin Yu took the chestnut from her hand, peeled it and said, "That person hasn't been here since then, but this also looks even more suspicious." Since Gongsun Liu has made it clear to you. So all in all, I think that person has a lot to do with the owner of the seal. But I decided not to panic for the time being, and wait for the cabinet to settle down. ”

"To what extent has this case been investigated in Dali Temple?" Xie Wan said.

"The news I got yesterday has been found in the Ministry of Industry. Because someone in the Ministry of Industry has seen this seal, but because of the long time gap, it is difficult to get evidence. Yin Yu pushed the peeled chestnuts in front of her, "Zhang Yang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is friendly with Ji Zhenyuan, and the waiter of the Ministry of Industry is Zheng Duo, the father of Concubine Zheng. Now that the seal appeared in the Ministry of Industry, everyone almost immediately paid attention to the Zheng family. ”

Xie Wan nodded and said, "If you think so, then that's right." If this person is a member of the Zheng family, then the Zheng family's motive for participating in the accumulation of wealth is very clear, they must have done so to provide financial support to Yin Yao, and they also have the strength to cooperate with the Cao Gang. - Is there no one in the Cao Gang to recruit them? ”

"Torture is useless." Yin Yu said, "But the more this is the case, the more I feel that this matter is not simple." Because the clues are too obvious, and the reasoning based on the clues is very valid. A case involving hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, where can it be so easy to expose the clues to people's eyes? ”

"Do you think this is not the handiwork of Concubine Zheng?" Xie Wan was a little surprised.

She admits that he had a point, but it was only a suspicion after all.

Yin Yu nodded, "I haven't told you all along, in fact, I suspect that in addition to the Huo family and the Zheng family, there may be a third force hidden in the imperial court." This force is the group that intended to assassinate me when I was in Qingyuan Prefecture. ”

Xie Wan heard him take the initiative to talk about himself for the first time, and he was immediately condensed.

"After I was deposed, I lived in a small mansion outside the East Palace, and on the surface I was an ordinary commoner with free movement, but in fact many people were secretly watching me. Among them, there are people from the Qianqing Palace, people from the East Palace, people from the Protector Mansion, and people from the Zheng family, I know all of this. But in addition, I noticed that there were other people staring at me.

"The unknown origin of these people made me wary. In this case, even if the Protectorate Mansion will protect me, I will be easily exploited by others after all. So I escaped from Kyoshi.

"I went to Qingyuan Prefecture because I wanted to go to Qinghe County, a village on the border between Qinghe and Qingyuan, where there were a few people I left behind before I went to the East China Sea. I had to find them to get in touch with my secret guards, and just as I was about to go find them in Qingyuan Prefecture, I noticed that someone was following me. So I led them to the mountain road, ready to take the opportunity to see the origin of their martial arts, but I didn't expect to be rescued by you passing by. ”

He took a sip from his cup.

Xie Wan was immersed in memories and said, "So, in fact, you weren't really restrained by them at that time? ”

He stared at her fiercely, "If I had been so easy to hold, I would have died a thousand times." After speaking, his gaze became inexplicably gentle.

Xie Wan looked away a little and said, "Then the anesthetic in you is also fake?" ”

"Not really." He shook his head and said, "I took the anesthetic medicine myself when Qian Zhuang saved me. Because I had to be awake to judge the situation, and this anesthetic calmed the pain and kept me clear. ”

Xie Wan was speechless. She once really thought that she had become a brave man who drew her sword back to help.

"But if it weren't for you, my path would have been much harder." He looked out the door and said seriously. "At least, I won't sleep a night in the next few months, I can't eat a bite of other people's food with peace of mind, although I may not die if you don't save me, but you at least let me know that there is still warmth in this world."

Xie Wan listened to his words, and his heart was much more comfortable after all.

But she wasn't used to him talking. Where did he go? She straightened up and sat upright, frowned, and said, "Don't say it, it's so numb." ”

Yin Yu looked at her and smiled, not at all unnatural.

"Then again. As for who is chasing me, I'm also looking into this.

"Originally, I thought it was someone from the Zheng family, but the Zheng family was originally born as a guard with a sword, and they practiced the orthodox martial arts of our dynasty. So I'm thinking that this group of people may be the same people who got rid of me in the first place through Yin Hao's matter. And the owner of this seal, if not someone from the Zheng family, must be someone in this force. ”

"So, your suspicions are well founded." Xie Wan shook his fan and said. After she went back to this matter, she had to think about it, if it was a dark force, did she come out in her previous life?

"Of course there is a basis." Yin Yu looked outside, and then put the chestnuts away.

Xie Wan stared at the bag of chestnuts that had only eaten a few pieces.

Yin Yu said: "It's not early, I ate too much this night and had a stagnation stomach." - It's time for you to go back, stay for a long time for fear of being targeted. ”

Xie Wan boarded the car speechlessly.

Just as she was about to leave, Yin Yu suddenly climbed the car window again, and her eyes seemed to keep staring into her heart, "I heard, do you want to get married?" ”

Xie Wan blushed and glared at him: "What's the matter with you?" ”

"Of course it's none of my business." Yin Yu stood up straight and turned his head to look away, "Just ask casually."

"Although you don't look stupid, sometimes you are stupid, you know that the mountain road is very dangerous, and you still save a stranger, and your memory is not good, I don't know if this person has seen it-" He looked at her, there was something incomprehensible in his eyes, "I just ask casually, I'm afraid that you will become a relative to someone else, and turn your head and forget about me." ”

Xie Wan stared at him with wide eyes, his lips pursed.

He smiled suddenly, then lowered the curtain, looked at the sky in the distance and said word by word: "Don't be in such a hurry to get married, wait for me." After saying that, she patted her horse twice and called Qian Zhuang.

The carriage went out of the threshold, and Xie Wan's heart was still beating wildly in the car, what did he mean by what he said just now?

Xie Wan didn't feel very good this night.

After going out with Mrs. Jin a few times, the effect was very obvious, and soon various matchmaker posts came to the door. Xie Lang's marriage with the Hong family made him get involved with the official circle in advance, and Xie Wan's own conditions were there, which showed that the disadvantage of her widowed daughter was reduced a lot. In addition, now that the Yu family lives with them, even if they don't see me, it doesn't make people think that Xie Wan is an unorthodox woman.

Xie Wan gradually walked away in a small range of official circles as the cousin of the Jin family, and people who knew Mrs. Jin occasionally mentioned the girl she often brought with her, as an indispensable figure in the social circle of the official family, of course Mrs. Wei also knew the news.

On this day, Wei Bin was discussing with Chen Shifeng, and Mrs. Wei beckoned him to sit down in the courtyard.

"I heard that Xie Wan is discussing marriage." She said, shaking her fan.

Wei Bin looked at his wife with a smile, "Then what do you think?" (To be continued.) )
