The Yangning Hou Mansion, which had been quiet for several years, once again showed signs of imminent action with the return of its owner.

After Chen Ying, the Marquis of Yangning, came back to meet the Zhu family, the courtesy was very respectful, and then discussed the marriage of the two daughters. Although this matter is undecided, "But just before this Yangning Marquis stepped out of the main room of Liao Xiangyuan, there was news of a dead man in the back room, and naturally no one would take this as a coincidence.

The alert man learns the lesson from the front and hides behind to watch the wind carefully; But those who are active are a little jumping up and down, "Some people even tried every possible way to ask the people in Liao Xiangyuan for news, and Zheng's mother couldn't take care of it for a while, so she was in a hurry."

Early this morning, according to Zhu's meaning, Chen Yan was still asked to go to class on time, but this time Chen Yan refused to do so no matter what. The ancestors and grandchildren grinded for a while, and Zheng's mother came in to report that it was Yangning Hou who went out at the invitation of the eldest son of Pingjiang Bo, and the Zhu family said angrily to Chen Yan: "Your third uncle is gone, what else do you have to worry about?" What should I do, what should I do, manly husband, what do you care about these mothers-in-law and mothers-in-law, there is no reason to make people laugh! ”

Hearing that Chen Ying had gone out, Chen Yan frowned slightly, and Sui Ye said to Zheng's mother: "Cailao's mother went to invite Aunt Bilou over." ”

Zheng's mother was hesitant when she heard this, but she looked up at Zhu and saw that although there was a bit of reproach on his face, "After all, she didn't have a chance to scold, so she retreated." As soon as she left, Zhu Shi angrily said to Chen Yan: "What did you call her to do?" The imperial concubine sent the two of them to me when she was leaving, and now that one of them has died, she will inevitably feel sad, and if she comes here to cry out loud, but if someone in my courtyard spreads the word, it will be trouble! It's okay, this person is still going to get married in a hurry, wouldn't it be bad luck to stop at home? ”

"That's not what I said, old lady." Chen Yan almost grabbed Zhu's arm tightly, and his voice was extremely low, "I tossed and turned last night and didn't sleep well, and then I vaguely had some thoughts. You said that this person was specially given to you by the imperial concubine, but it was only a few days after he arrived at our house, and he chose to die when the third uncle came back, and even dropped a pair of bloody scissors at the scene, is this too coincidental? ”

"You mean your third uncle..."

Seeing that Zhu's brows were furrowed, he almost didn't say whether it was Chen Ying's moth, Chen Yan hurriedly shook his head: "Before the imperial concubine died, she gave someone to give you these who understand, of course, I know that this is the person that the imperial concubine cares about, and I sent it out of the palace to serve you, firstly, to add two reliable people to you, and secondly, to give them a good end; But I don't know, it's happened again, maybe they think they know a lot of secrets about the imperial concubine, and they came to you to ......"

"Don't say it!" Zhu's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he hugged the soft pillow in his hand for a long time without speaking. "For a long time," she sneered, "I can't imagine that a person who dies can make so many big troubles." It's all calculated on my head one by one. According to you, your third uncle doesn't seem to have the power to this extent.

"In the past few years, although the original sisters of Liao Xiangyuan have been matched one by one, just like Sister Green Calyx, the old lady has also been transferred back to make the new ones reliable. But the third uncle has just come back, how much can he have to do with them, and make them do something like this, which will cost their lives? "When he said this," Chen Yan's eyes were full of confidence, and then he said word by word, "No matter how the red eaves died, Bilou must ask carefully!" ”

"Also, when your third uncle came back last night, there was such an incident, and I was so distraught that I even forgot all about it. However, the Zheng family had already ordered the girl to accompany her......"

Before he finished speaking, Zheng's mother's voice came from outside. The next moment, Zheng's mother led a woman wearing a pea-green placket to come in. She is the same age as Hongea, only her eyebrows and eyes are more beautiful, and the tears on her face at this time are like tears, she looks even more pitiful, and she is as if she is only in her twenties.

"Old lady, fourth young master."

Although Chen Yan had seen her many times before, but when he looked at it again at this time, he found that Cuilou was really moving, and a strange idea suddenly appeared in his heart. Only the others were small, and with a light cough, he temporarily suppressed this idea, and pressed Zhu's hand and asked first: "Aunt and Aunt Hongwei have always been anxious from Meng, and Meng is not out of focus." Before Aunt Hongea's accident last night, did you think there was anything wrong with her? ”

"Because everyone is talking about the big things outside, and thinking that the third master is coming back, plus the palace has sent the original suitcase, etc., the slave maid is in a hurry to sort things out, so she doesn't care about the red eaves, who knows her........." said that it was the mother who had a hard time over the years, but I didn't expect the old lady to say that it was the lady of the Hou Mansion, and it was not easy. A good drag party is going to be occupied by a pigeon's nest, and the third master who is a taro is even more useless, she just hates to share your worries and ...... for you.

Listening to Cuilou's mixed lots, Zhu was impatient at first, but gradually his complexion changed because of it, and his face showed an expression of shock and regret. Chen Yan on the side was not as deeply touched as the Zhu family, his eyes kept sweeping around Cuilou, but he didn't ask anything again.

Zhu asked the two of them about the situation in the palace again. After Cui Lou talked about the benefits of the imperial concubine in the past, she finally couldn't help but wipe her eyes with a handkerchief, and waved her hand to signal Mother Zheng to take someone down.

When the curtain fell again, Chen Yanfang got up and knelt behind Zhu, and while pinching the old lady a few times, he whispered: "Old lady, the mother has already gone, don't be sad." …”

"In her life, she has had a harder life than me...... At this time, no one is there, and the Zhu family is already full of tears, "Although I have experienced countless hardships for most of my life, and most of the time I survived alone, but I have always looked at your sister and brother correctly and found a support for myself, but she has always been alone in the palace." Until she died, she was still afraid that my aunt would not be called, so she sent them here, and as a result, she even injured a life. …”

Chen Yan frowned when he heard this, and when he saw that Zhu was only concerned about sentimentality, he opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything in the end, but comforted Zhu for a while, and then tiptoed out of the door and ordered the two girls to go in and accompany him. When Zheng's mother entered the house, he beckoned people to the courtyard outside, and they actually talked in the wind.

"Fourth Young Master, what can't you say in the house?"

"Those slab wall curtains and so on are not soundproof, God knows if the partition wall has ears, or it is easy to talk here, at least there will not be one more pair ......of ears underground, Chen Yan glanced around with a smile, and then retracted his gaze, as if nothing happened, and said to Zheng's mother as if nothing happened, "When I was talking to the old lady about Bilou just now, my mother was also beside me." What do you hear? …”

Mother Zheng is also a human spirit for many years, just watching Zhu Shi accompany Bilou to wipe away tears, some thoughts have already been born in her heart, at this time Chen Yan asked, she only felt a sigh in her heart, and after a while, she forced a smile and said: "The fourth young master is a brainless question, I am clumsy and clum.........sy."

"Mom is still going to be sloppy with me? …… Chen Yan finally became impatient, but his voice suddenly became extremely low, "I can hear what Cuilou meant, and my mother dares to say that you didn't hear it?" What she meant was clearly that Hongwei used to be loyal to the imperial concubine, but now she has been loyal to the old lady. Because the third uncle came back, she was resentful, so she committed suicide with scissors, and when the time came, she found out, and the third uncle just came back to Liao Xiangyuan. He can't tell even if he has ten mouths, can he? …。

This has been said clearly, and it is difficult for Mother Zheng to be vague about the past, and she sighed at the moment: "The fourth young master forgives the sins, looking at the appearance of the old lady, I probably think the same way, so I don't dare to say it." If that's the case, it's hard for her. After all, he has followed Niangniang since Wuling Bomei, and he has been in the palace for many years ..........

"Mom said this too early! Chen Yan interrupted Zheng's mother angrily, and her little face was full of age-appropriate sophistication, "If you want to say that the loyal maid is the main thing, for the sake of the imperial concubine, this thing also makes sense." But when the old lady married into the Hou Mansion back then, I was afraid that there were no them, they followed the imperial concubine all day long, how much did they have contact with the old lady? It's only been a few days since he arrived in the Hou Mansion, and no matter how loyal his feelings are, he hasn't yet reached the point of risking his life. The master said to me, "There are only a few people in this world who dare to fight with their lives, if they are not born with iron bones, or they are forced to a dead end; Mr. also said that even if the iron-clad man is desperate, he is fighting where he needs it most, otherwise how can there be a spelling? Therefore, if something is abnormal, it is a demon! , Listening to Chen Yan's sprinkled article, Zheng's mother was already genuinely stunned. Although she knew that Chen Yan had greatly improved in both civil and military cultivation in the past few years, although she knew that the old lady was full of praise for this grandson all day long, and although she also liked this fourth young master who brought laughter to the old lady in her heart, she really didn't expect it. Chen Yan actually started from the details and thought of such a depth. So, after being silent and shocked for a while, she finally asked, "What does the Fourth Young Master want to do?" ”

"What to do? Naturally, I'm waiting to see what other wonderful backhands people have! ……

Chen Yan grinned, and was about to open his mouth to give some more orders, when he saw someone coming in from the hall, he immediately stopped talking. Suddenly, the mother in charge who came came to the front, bent her knees and said with a smile on her face: "Fourth young master, Mother Zheng, Mrs. Yang of Jingyuan is here, saying that she is coming to visit our old lady!" ”

"Ah, Aunt is here? I'll take it! …”

Seeing Chen Yan trotting away and disappearing at the entrance of the hall, Zheng's mother couldn't help but wonder, and when she looked back at the main room of Liao Xiangyuan, she hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to follow Chen Yan to greet the Jiang family. After all, these words without a shadow are not good to say to the Zhu family.! ~！
