"Xi'er, what are you looking at?" Seeing her granddaughter in a daze, the old lady said anxiously, "Let's go in and have a look, your father and your mother should come back in a while." ”

Hanxi didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly helped his grandmother into the inn, but when he asked the shopkeeper, he said that they had all gone out and were not in the inn.

The old lady didn't comply, so she said that she would wait in the store, and Hanxi naturally followed her grandmother and sat down.

Upstairs, Ershan had just woken up, and his eyes were no longer those strange and indifferent faces, this month's work, he was under house arrest in the deserted mansion, eating and drinking every day, and someone was there to take care of him, but he was not allowed to leave.

He tried all kinds of ways to escape, but he didn't succeed, although no one would beat him because of this, but they gradually became impatient, so he finally thought of a hunger strike, even if he died, he could not be locked up for the rest of his life so inexplicably.

"We couldn't wait for you to go home, so we found the capital all the way, and you really had an accident." Xiaowan said with tears in her eyes, "God bless, Ershan, you are in a hurry to kill us." ”

Lian Yi held Ershan's hand tightly, she couldn't say anything, her sweetheart could come back alive, and she was willing to do whatever God wanted her to do from now on.

"Ershan, you rest first, with us, no one will arrest you again." Xiaowan said, glancing at Lian Yi, "I handed him over to you." ”

Lian Yi nodded tearfully, Xiaowan was relieved to leave, she turned around, and Ershan stopped her.

"My brother ......" Ershan opened his mouth, tears rained down, "Xiaowan, how did my brother die?" ”

Xiaowan's heart ached, and she shook her head: "Accidentally falling off the cliff, no one wants to, Ershan, you rest first." If you still care about him, take care of your health, prepare for the August exam, and be a useful person for the country and the people. ”

She walked away without looking back, until she rushed to the door, as soon as Ling Chaofeng was mentioned, her heart and her body were like a pain that was about to be torn apart, she wanted to be calm, she wanted to finish the unfinished business of her husband.

Holding on to the railing, I saw a white-haired old lady and a young lady sitting in the lobby, they were well-dressed and full of beads, they must be rich and noble.

Although in the capital, rich and noble people can be seen everywhere, but the inn is a place of the market after all, and local dignitaries generally do not come.

And the people downstairs also raised their eyes and saw Xiaowan.

They looked at each other, Xiaowan bowed her head kindly, and retracted her gaze to walk away, but she heard the people downstairs shouting to her: "May I ask the lady, are you Ling Chu's family?" ”

Xiao Wan was stunned for a moment, and looked at the shopkeeper standing below, and the shopkeeper nodded helplessly, meaning that they were looking for Ling Zhu.

The old lady didn't wait for Xiaowan to agree, she climbed the stairs tremblingly, Xiaowan couldn't see the old man working so hard, and unconsciously reached out to help.

"This lady, are you Ling Chu's family? Who are you? ”

The old lady saw that Xiaowan was very young, but she was full of green silk, and she didn't dare to call it casually, and even thought about whether it would be the daughter-in-law she married herself.

At this point, Xiao Wan simply faced it generously, and said: "I am Ling Chu's sister-in-law, why does the old lady know my family Ershan." ”

"It turned out to be his sister-in-law, but what about his brother?" The old lady looked around, her eyes full of anticipation, and she wanted to thank the family for raising their grandchildren.

"Xianggong is no longer here, and he left in March." Xiao Wan lowered her eyes.

"Where have you gone?" Hanxi was young and couldn't understand it for a while.

But when the old lady saw Xiaowan's expression and elegant makeup, she immediately understood, grieving that good people don't live long, so she only said: "I want to thank you for raising the industry for me, but I didn't expect it...... Mrs. Sister-in-law, the festival mourns and changes. ”

The old lady followed Ershan and called Xiaowan a sister-in-law, Xiaowan naturally didn't dare to be, and wanted to help her go down and sit and talk.

But when he saw Uncle Biao coming out of the house, he didn't know what was going on outside, so he opened his mouth and asked, "Xiaowan, I'll go get some medicine for Ershan." ”

Everyone was stunned, the old lady thought about it, and asked in surprise: "The industry is here?" ”

Let's say that Ershan's scientific name is Lingchu, his family calls him Ershan, and his real name is Bi Ye, a good person, with so many names, Hanxi has long been confused.

Only grandma, who remembers her grandson in her heart, can understand it at once.

The old man came in without saying anything, and saw her grandson lying on the couch, and there was a young and beautiful girl sitting beside the couch, but at this moment she could not see anyone else in her eyes, only her grandson.

The old lady held Ershan's arm up and down, and said worriedly: "Why did you lose weight like this, industry, they abused you?" ”

"Grandma, do you know that I was arrested by him and placed under house arrest?" Ershan asked.

The old lady looked entangled, nodded stiffly, held her heart and said: "He promised me that as long as you can make your brother successfully admitted to the top prize, he will take you home and ask you to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors." He said that if you hinder the future of Zhenye, that woman will definitely not forgive, and when the time comes, the family will be restless, and you can't let you come home, and our Bi family will lose face. I promised him, I ...... But I didn't expect him to abuse you. ”

Things are a little complicated, everyone here is confused, Bi Hanxi doesn't understand, and asks grandmother why she always sends her to eavesdrop on her father's conversation since she knows her grandson's whereabouts.

The old lady said that she was afraid that her son would betray her, that he would tell his daughter-in-law in advance, and that Mrs. Bi would be unfavorable to the industry.

Uncle Biao, Xiaowan, and Lian Yi were all confused, and they only understood when Ershan confessed everything to them.

Ershan is the second son born to Prime Minister Bi Cheng's original wife, he lost his biological mother when he was six years old, was sent out of the capital, and then fell into the hands of human teeth, and was fortunate to be rescued by Ling Chaofeng's mother.

Later, in the more than ten years at the Lingxiao Inn, Uncle Biao knew it, but everyone didn't know it, Ershan always knew who he was and where he came from.

And the problem at hand is that after the old lady recognized her grandson, she wanted to let the industry recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors, but Ershan asked to recognize each other after gaining fame, otherwise he would disappear without a trace. The old lady was worried, so she promised that Ershan would keep it secret, but in the end, under the pressure of her son, she said what she said.

Prime Minister Bi Cheng reached a consensus with his mother, saying that in order to protect the industry, he would be locked up first, and then take him home after Zhenye gained fame.

The old lady was moved by her son's words, and she agreed in a daze.

At this moment, Ershan said coldly: "He didn't think about letting me back at all, he would put me under house arrest for the rest of his life, or kill me directly." ”

The old lady waved her hand again and again: "No, industry, your father promised me ......"

Ershan smiled bitterly and asked his grandmother: "Have you never thought about how my mother died?" ”

The old lady was stunned for a moment, and responded, "Didn't she die of illness?" ”

Ershan sighed softly, avoided his grandmother's gaze, and said to Uncle Biao and Xiaowan: "Uncle, sister-in-law, please send your grandmother out, I'm tired." ”

"Industry ......"

"Old lady, you go first, the child can't hold on to his body after suffering, if there is anything, it's good to come back in a few days to discuss." Uncle Biao stepped forward and blocked in front of the old lady, he was so burly and rough, Han Xi looked a little scared, pulled his grandmother, and asked her to go first.

When the house was empty, Lian Yi hadn't woken up yet, and when she heard Ershan coughing, she eased up and hurriedly poured him a glass of water.

Lian Yi sent the teacup to Ershan, but Ershan took the opportunity to hold her hand: "I hid it from everyone, and I also hid it from you." ”

"Take care of your body first, nothing else matters." Lian Yi said, "Whether you are surnamed Ling or Bi, I don't care, as long as you are well, I will be satisfied." ”

"Lian Yi, I'm sorry, I didn't achieve anything, and I made you worry about making you run for me." Ershan said, "Now that my brother is gone, I can't hold on to those hatreds anymore, I have to take care of the inn, take care of Xiaowan, compared to them, no one in the Prime Minister's Mansion is insignificant." Rest assured, I will pick myself up and do what I have to do. ”

Lian Yi nodded: "I have always believed in you, and I know that you will not leave me." ”

In front of the door, Xiao Wan wanted to come in and ask Ershan a few more words, but when she saw him and Lian Yi hugging each other, she couldn't help but smile and gently closed the door.

Ershan was safe and sound, and a stone fell in her heart, but suddenly her mind was blank, and she didn't know what to do next.

Go back to Baisha Town, continue to run the inn, or guard Ershan here until he successfully participates in the examination?

Xiaowan shook her head, she remembered that she should go and thank Wei Tengfei first.

However, at this moment, Wei Tengfei was in the Qingming Pavilion and told the emperor about it.

It's not that he betrayed Xiaowan, but that he was involved in being a member of the court, he couldn't deal with it as a private matter, and he had experienced Ling Chaofeng's affairs, so that he understood the emperor's wrists, and it was best not to let him be suspicious of anything or anyone.

Xiang Run listened indifferently and sighed lightly: "I didn't expect that they would make a fuss like this, and it would be good to rescue people, otherwise they would have been worried about Xiaowan." ”

Wei Tengfei said: "It happened suddenly, and I failed to report to the emperor in advance, it was the fault of the minister, please forgive the emperor." ”

In fact, the emperor is very young, more than ten years younger than Wei Tengfei, but the heavenly atmosphere, the majesty of the emperor, Xiang Run has been a teenager since he was a child, and now standing in front of Wei Tengfei, he can't see the difference of ten years.

He said: "If Ling Chu has no ability, it can be regarded as me mistaking him, Prime Minister Bi is his father's important minister, and he has made great achievements in the country and the people, so I don't have to interfere in family affairs." ”

Wei Tengfei was silent, and Xiang Run said again: "You go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, pass on my words, whether Ling Chu wants to be an inn or a prince of the Prime Minister's Mansion, since he abandoned this son back then, he is not qualified to interfere now." What to say, you weigh it up. ”

"Yes." Wei Tengfei took the order.

"I left you in the capital, but I took care of the housework." Xiang Run said with a smile, "After this incident, you should go back to Sichuan and Chongqing, otherwise you should complain." ”

"I don't dare."

"But when I go back to Sichuan and Chongqing, I won't see Xiao Wan." The emperor was cold and poked into his uncle's heart, "Tengfei, you really did your best for Xiaowan." ”
