Xiao Song would not let her go to see the 'woman' for no reason, Ran Yan guessed that the 'woman' was the culprit who poisoned Xiao Song's two wives.

was able to bury the traces so that even Xiao Song couldn't find any clues, and Ran Yan couldn't help but have a trace of curiosity about this 'girl', but for fear of attracting her attention, Ran Yan had no choice but to restrain his gaze.

After the order was dispersed, Xiao Song and Ran Yan went to the study to rest, and then they revealed the identity of the 'woman', "Uncle is the last generation of monarchs of Xiliang, she is the wife of the queen, and the end of the Sui Dynasty is the wife of Yipin Guo, but the uncle died when the Sui Dynasty fell, and to Li Tang, she is the lady of Dongyang County." ”

Xiao Cong, the queen of the Western Liang, was made the crown prince when Xiao Yue was in power, and Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty destroyed the Western Liang Kingdom, and Xiao Cong was also demoted to the Duke of Ju. Xiao Cong was still reused in the Sui Dynasty because of his talent and ease, and he has always been a high-ranking official, but when Emperor Yang of Sui ascended the throne, he was suspicious of Emperor Yang of Sui and was dismissed because of a nursery rhyme among the people that said "Xiao Xiao also recovers".

When he arrived in Li Tang, maybe it was to win over the Xiao family, or maybe Xiao Cong was very appreciated by the Li Tang royal family, so he was posthumously awarded the title.

Because Xiao Cong's first title in Xiliang was the king of Dongyang, he posthumously crowned a prince of Dongyang County, and his wife followed her husband to the rank of the second-grade lady of Dongyang County.

"In this way, this lady is still the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, and she seems to be much younger than the A family.................. Not the original? Ran Yan whispered.

Xiao Song bowed his head, "But because there are not many uncle's sons, and they basically died young, and now there is only one son left, so the uncle's branch is thin, but the sixth uncle's branch and ours are still prosperous." ”

In this way, this lady of Dongyang County did not become the queen of Liang, but married Xiao Cong at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

Now because it is still a short time since the death of the queen, the long house is still the long house, but how many generations later? In this case, if the big house does not occupy the position of the patriarch as soon as possible, the Xiao clan's genealogy, they will soon become insignificant from the orthodox long house.

"But it wasn't enough to make her so crazy." Ran Yan thinks... Unless this 'woman' is crazy about power, how could she do such a thing if she is so weak now.

Xiao Song 'rubbed' his eyebrows, "So I suspect that someone is behind it, and someone needs the strength of the Xiao family to take advantage of this loophole." ”

For Xiao Song... If the matter of revenge is just to murder a 'woman', it is naturally not a problem, but Xiao Song has not moved Mrs. Dongyang, mainly because he can't move it now.

Hearing this, Ran Yan didn't ask anymore, there are many people in the family today, and it's not a good time to say such things. However, even if he didn't ask, Ran Yan could vaguely guess which prince must be the person behind this... And most of this person is not Li Ke, because Li Ke's princess is from the sixth room of the Xiao family, and now the most prosperous branch of the descendants.

This proves that Liufang is still very optimistic about Li Ke, and there is no need for him to support Changfang to be the head of the house.

"Madam, do you need a slave to go in and serve tea?" The evening green outside the 'door' suddenly said.

Ran Yan paused... "Come in." ”

Wan Lu pushed the 'door' in, walked to Ran Yan's side and put away the teacup, lowered her head and said quickly, "The old lady is here." ”

Before the evening green spoke, the light at the entrance of the 'door' dimmed, and the Duhu clan walked in.

All the 'waiters' and maids behind her were left at the 'door', and Ran Yan felt that something was not quite right... Generally, the personal 'waiter' maid is followed up... There is no reason to stay outside the house.

"Yuezhi, there are so many things in the front yard, why are you lazy here with your daughter-in-law!" Dugu reprimanded.

Xiao Song gently squeezed Ran Yan's hand, signaling that if she had something, she must find a way to inform him, and then immediately got up, "Mother taught me that I will go over." ”

Ran Yan also got up and stepped forward to help Dugu's family.

"Evening Green, you should go out first." Ran Yan guessed that the Dugu clan must have something to say to her, but she thought about it all the time before and after, and she couldn't think of anything that would make the Dugu clan break everyone apart and talk to her alone.

"Yan Niang." After Dugu sat down, he looked at Ran Yan and asked bluntly, "In addition to that sentence, what other words did Mrs. Tai say?" ”

Ran Yan's heart tightened slightly, last words, Mrs. Tai said a lot of things at that time, which should be regarded as last words, but in addition to the sentence "May my Xiao descendants prosper", the most important "handover" generation is to ask Ling Xiang to "hand" a box of golden silk nanmu to the Dugu family... Let her take it and give it to Empress Xiao.

Since Mrs. Tai has 'handed over' the generation, Ran Yan has never concealed it, "Mrs. Tai said that there is a box of golden silk nanmu in her house, let Ling Xiang 'hand' it over to you, and ask you to bring it to your aunt." ”

Xiao Yue's 'daughter' is only Queen Xiao, and the Dugu family will not understand the "aunt" in Ran Yan's mouth as someone else.

"Except for Ling Xiang and you, who else knows about this matter?" Dugu asked.

Seeing that she seemed to be very important, Ran Yan recalled, "There are also four 'servants' beside Mrs. Tai. ”

"Hmm. This matter must not be leaked. The Duhu clan stared at Ran Yan, giving people a kind of oppression.

But Ran Yan has never been afraid of this kind of oppression from the momentum, but he also felt that if the Dugu clan felt that he didn't care, he was afraid that it would be even more difficult in the future, so he lowered his head and responded respectfully.

Duhu nodded with satisfaction and got up to leave.

"Lady." Wanlu came in with tea, put it on a few, and looked back to see that there was no one outside the 'door', so she said softly, "Xing Niang came over and said that there was a letter from Suzhou, and Eighteen Niang was gone." ”

Ran Yan was slightly stunned, and then said, "It's better to get rid of it earlier." After a pause, he asked, "Didn't you say how about Gelan?" When does she plan to return? ”

"Anyway, Gelan sent a letter saying that he was already on his way back." Wan Lu looked very happy, but because Mrs. Xiao was so deviant, she didn't dare to put her happiness on her face, "Ge Lan said, brought someone back, lady, guess who it is?" ”

"Shao Ming." There was no suspense at all for Ran Yan.

Evening Green was surprised, "How does the lady know?" ”

"What can make you so happy, except for Wednesday Lang's mother and son, is Shao Ming. Last time, I heard from my husband that someone went to check on my medical practice, but I didn't find Zhou Lang's mother and son, so they must have left there a long time ago. Ran Yan said.

"I can't hide it from the lady." Evening Green stuck out his tongue and said.

"Let's go, we can't stay here for too long." Ran Yan had a headache, it was time to meet the people who knew her family, only to see that there were more than a dozen 'women' alone, plus some 'women' of the Xiao family, these people were not something she could ignore if she wanted to.

Ran Yan walked out of the study and went to the Xiaodong House, which was very close to Mrs. Xiao's courtyard, so the ladies and ladies gathered there, ready to change into plain clothes.

As soon as Ran Yan walked through the fish pond and went up the corridor, he saw a plain 'woman' coming to her face, the 'woman' was about forty years old, with a standard melon seed face, eyebrows like distant mountains, phoenix eyes like autumn water, even if she was a half-old, she still had charm, and in every move, she was a little less noble than Dugu's, and she had a little bit of pure heart and little 'desire'.
