He Danggui, who was in the house, frowned and looked down at the three old women on the ground, heard movement outside the window, and looked over, and saw Dai Pin with a face of mud slowly falling, and the person standing behind him turned out to be ......

"Qi Xuanyu?!" He Angelica opened his eyes and exclaimed, "You are still in the capital!" There was a surprising uplift in the tone.

Qi Xuanyu's magical powder, Peng Yan's eyes, came back to life, dry bones and raw flesh......

These words flashed through my mind in an instant.

"Qi Xuanyu is the lay name of the little monk, and now he has switched to Buddhism, and his Dharma name is Jichen." The man pursed his lips.

It was a handsome monk in a blue monk's robe and bastard shoes, trimming his eyebrows and sideburns, looking forward to Shenfei's eyes, and his expression was so serious that it was almost stern. Qi Xuanyu had never had this kind of expression before, and Qi Xuanyu, who was called "Tianjizi", gave the impression that he was always cynical and smiling.

But that eyebrow and that eye are not to be misunderstood.

Qi Xuanyu slapped his knife, put down Dai Pin, who was peeking out of the window, walked into the house, and said in a long tone: "It's not bad-I haven't seen you for a few months, the county lord is more ruthless than before, so that the dust is beyond the reach of the dust!" ”

Those cold eyes looked at He Angelica, and He Angelica could only find a cold mockery in it. Qi Xuanyu walked behind the old woman who wrote the words "Heaven does not tolerate", kicked the unconscious and weak hand with a monk's shoe, and pouted: "The county lord should know that this old lady is the mother of your biological father He Jingxian, that is, your own grandmother, right?" A He Angelica who can be ruthless even with his own grandmother is really chilling. ”

"Yes." He Angelica's mood did not fluctuate much, and it was obviously known in advance.

She also smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Qi used to be a Taoist priest, and now he is a monk, what is his legal name...... Machine dust? I have always been in front of the monks, no wonder I have such compassion for the world. I'm ashamed that too many people want to harm me, use me, and use me like a dagger to pierce my lover's heart. I don't want to die, I don't want to hurt my lover, and I want to save the people I care about, so I have to have the right to sacrifice those I don't care about. ”

Qi Xuanyu poured out the pill from the bottom of his sleeve, twisted it into three parts, and fed it to the three poisoned old women. The mouth was still sneering: "It's a good 'matter of authority', using this method to force the little monk to show up, and it is more appropriate to describe it as 'unscrupulous'." ”

He Angelica raised his eyebrows: "It's easy to say." But I never guessed that you, who had already gone to Xianyun Wild Crane, would come back to the troubled waters of the capital. ”

Yesterday, she walked to the door of the mansion and knocked on the door openly, claiming to be the "eldest lady" here. Isn't it the eldest lady, her parents bought this house and made a home here.

According to Lu Jiangbei's intelligence, after investigation, the new subordinates and new housekeepers in the house are completely innocent, and they are not the same as those terrible killers.

The subordinate who opened the door didn't recognize He Angelica, and when he heard that it was the "eldest lady", he informed the housekeeper. The old man of the housekeeper came out to receive He Angelica, his attitude was a little arrogant, he did not admit that she was the master of this room, and said, "The girl doesn't know, right?" The house has changed hands, and our master doesn't have a daughter as old as you. ”

"Changing hands?" He Angelica pretended to be surprised, "You mean, my family's entire house has been resold to someone else?" I don't believe it! ”

"I can't believe you, we have the deed." The old man said with a sense of superiority.

He Angelica was shocked, flustered and helpless, silent for a long time, and then bit his lip pitifully and asked, "Can you ask your master to take the time to meet with me?" I am really the daughter of the original owner here, I got married half a year ago, my father is a foreigner, and my mother is pregnant with a younger brother. Even if this is no longer my home, I want to inquire about the whereabouts of my loved ones. ”

He Angelica is a cold beauty, and the pitiful expression on her face can be seen from her face, which probably goes back to her previous life. However, this beautiful little face with pear blossoms and rain is huge, and even an old man in his sixties is not spared.

Immediately, she was served a table of hot soup and hot dishes, took a steaming bath of petals, and finally slept in a soft and warm bed.

The old man of the housekeeper said that his master was a rich man who did a big business, and was very busy, and that the house was just an idle abode for the master, and that twenty servants were to take care of it, and occasionally came to stay for a while. Even the old man who was the butler had only met the master twice.

He Angelica asked the master's name, and the old man shook his head and said that he didn't know, and she looked disappointed.

When the old man saw this, he said that there was an old lady surnamed Fang in this family, who was a relative of the owner and an old lady of a big family in the capital. She likes to eat fried cicada chrysalis very much, and there are a lot of trees here, every time she collects enough cicada chrysalis, she sends a message to the old lady over there, she will definitely come to eat it the next day. Coincidentally, the old lady came tomorrow morning.

He Angelica's face sank, thanked the old man, and went back to bed.

"Fang" is not a very common surname, and the most famous Fang family is a big merchant who started as a camel seller in the north. That family has a daughter, who married into the He family, a medical family in the capital, fifty years ago, and gave birth to a daughter and a son, whose names are He Zaimei and He Jingxian, and now they have become very remarkable people.

In the court and in the harem, waves of strong winds and waves blew people into panic, but Mrs. Fang and her children were very calm.

There is a saying that once the son of heaven and a courtier, the capital has just been replaced by a new young son of heaven, who is older than before, and his prestige, experience and scheming are far from enough. But what the new emperor has the most is patience, the courage to break the stereotype, and the ambition to do a big job from the bottom of his heart and take care of this piece of great country that belongs to him.

The abolition of the two major spy agencies of the East Factory and the West Factory and the removal of more than a dozen fiefs used by the feudal kings and uncles for many years were the two fires that were ignited after the new emperor took office.

In today's court, the third fire is the promotion and dismissal of high-level officials. After a short period of trial, the new emperor wanted to promote his confidants, and he wanted to bring those old antiques that looked obscure to the invisible place, which was expected.

However, when Taishi, Taifu, Dazai, and the Six Books were all replaced, a large number of people still suffered from a panic. All of a sudden, people were panicked and everyone was in danger.

The only two official families with two beautiful scenery are the Meng family, which is known as the "evergreen" tree.

When the Son of Heaven was in power, the military power was relatively scattered, the sons and daughters of the Meng family only trained in the north, and the elite soldiers and cavalry in the capital were always controlled by the Chang family and the Geng family respectively. The Chang family and the Geng family are both relatives of the new Son of Heaven, Chang Yuchun, the god of war who died in battle many years ago, is the grandfather of the Son of Heaven, and Geng Xuan is the brother-in-law of the Son of Heaven. But what makes people's hearts overloaded is that even the military power of these two families has been stripped away!

Now the Imperial Forest Army and the city defense battalion in the entire capital, except for the part in the hands of the Son of Heaven, the rest are handed over to Meng Xian, the boss of the Meng family, and Meng Chen, the fifth elder. In other words, the entire snow-bladed saber of the Ming Dynasty was completely in the hands of the Meng family!

People can't help but speculate, what reason does the Meng family have to be so trusted by the Son of Heaven, even the relatives of the family can't compare?

No one can find out why, only red-eyed. Fortunately, the Meng family is a family of poetry, books, etiquette and righteousness, with a calm background, just like the character of Baoding Hou Mengshan, reliable, unassuming, and not clinging to the party. This made many Qingliu civil officials and imperial historians full of confidence in the new imperial court.

Another one with infinite scenery turned out to be the Sun family.

The Sun family is one of the four major families in Yangzhou, and "Wu Luo Guan Sun, Gui Man Qiankun" is a local proverb. In the early years, the Sun family poured silk tea on the canal and dealt with the rich salt merchants.

The three families of Wu Luoguan have produced the Taishi, the prince and the prince, the prince and the prince, the prince and the sacrificial wine, and the general of Pingjiang. It was not until recent years that the Luo family withered, and there were many desolate and decadent children in the clan, none of whom became successful, and they did bad things in the rebellion case of King Jin, so they gradually went downhill.

The Sun family is the kind that goes uphill. In the imperial examination, the "talented Confucian scholar Sun Yanbin", who was even hit by the eyes of the literary list and the martial arts, was like a dazzling comet passing by, making Sun Jiadeng tremble. With Sun Yanbin as a springboard, at least twenty or thirty of the children of the Sun family have embarked on official careers, but they are all small sesame officials.

Sun Yanbin, who was both civil and military, did not become an official, but only made a small staff member in the East Palace, offering advice and advice to His Royal Highness the eldest grandson of the year, and died with all his might. Later, he was really assassinated and died, and His Highness took pity on him.

Therefore, after His Royal Highness the eldest grandson ascended the throne, the children of the Sun family were greatly enabled, and everyone was able to use their talents. After a reform of the official system, almost all the important positions in the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, and the Zhongshu Province were occupied by people surnamed Sun, and the power reached heaven.

At the beginning, many courtiers were unconvinced, thinking that the Sun family was just a rich man who sold salt and tea, and that dialing abacus and counting copper coins was their old business, so how could they occupy important positions?

But over the past few days, batch after batch of courtiers and civil officials have deliberately made things difficult and troubled officials surnamed Sun, but none of them have succeeded. It is not because the Son of Heaven protects the shortcomings, but because the official surnamed Sun has his own way to solve the problem again and again, or to return the person who gave the problem.

The leader of this group of officials surnamed Sun is Sun Lin, the fourth son of the Sun family, who became the Zhongxian doctor of Zhengsi before he was less than twenty. When today's son is full of praise for him, he likes to find him whenever he has something, because he has a very good way to deal with those old courtiers who have cultivated well, and he can do things for the Son of Heaven quietly and bloodlessly.

Besides, the He family, a medical family in Beijing, in addition to kicking out the Luo family and the Guan family, took over the beauty of official Chinese medicine, and also got close to the Sun family.

He Shangyu, the pearl of the head of the family, He Jingxian, is thirteen years old, and he has a captivating appearance and a beautiful heart before he is ready. met Sun Lin at the poetry tea party by chance, and the two sides fell in love at first sight. So, Lang had a concubine in mind, and the Sun and He families soon got married, just waiting for He Shangyu to marry next year.

He Jingxian had Sun Lin, a very competitive future son-in-law, and was also valued by the Son of Heaven, promoted to two ranks, and became the chief treasurer of the treasury.

For a time, the He family was in the limelight, and they were more prominent than many other veteran families in the capital. The Sun family in Yangzhou has been transformed into the Sun family in Beijing, and it is the most famous upstart family today.

As soon as the old man of the housekeeper of the murderous house opened his mouth to mention "the old lady who likes to eat fried cicada chrysalis", He Angelica guessed that it was about the grandmother of the He family.

When they met on the second day, a fat old lady with a slightly dark complexion, a tear mole under the corner of her left eye, and ten fingers wearing jade rings.

He Angelica had never seen the grandmother of the He family, and had only heard some of the eccentricities and strange temperaments of the harsh mother-in-law in eavesdropping on the homely words of his mother and Mrs. Luo.

At first glance, He Angelica knew that the fat old lady was his grandmother.
