Chapter 62: To Check, or Not to Check?
After Shen Zhongkang left, Shen couldn't help but sigh.
Even though seven years have passed, my grandfather is still the same every time he mentions the affairs of Princess Yongzhao's mansion.
There are very few people in Jingzhong who still remember that amazing talent, and everyone regards her as a taboo, but his grandfather, who seems to have become a magic obstacle that he can't get over.
He stood in front of the door for a moment before suddenly saying to the side, "Jiang Cheng." ”
"Childe."
"Go do something for me."
Shen just wanted to say that he would ask Jiang Cheng to help him go to Xue's house to check on the child left by Xue Chen's brother back then, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly paused.
In his dream, Xue Nuo smashed the Taimiao and burned the tablet was too terrifying, and he had always wondered why Xue Nuo hated the royal family so much, and even hated some people in Beijing.
If Xue Nuo really has anything to do with Xue Chen, then some things may be able to explain clearly.
But Jiang Cheng went to check, and his grandfather would definitely know that the matter about Xue Chen was just a temporary guess on his part, in case he thought too much...... He still had to find out for himself.
"Childe?"
"It's nothing, I just want to say, did you settle the two guards who died in Jiangnan for me?"
Jiang Cheng was puzzled for a moment, and always felt that what Gongzi wanted to say just now didn't seem to be this, but seeing that Shen didn't speak, he didn't ask much:
"Childe rest assured, the bodies of those two people have been sent back, and the government has also sent someone to help them bury their families, and what Childe said before has been done."
"The family that is willing to stay in the house has already arranged work for them, signed a living deed, and can let them be free at any time, and those who are unwilling have also given double the silver, so that the people below can take care of them more, so as to ensure that they can live a good life in the future."
Shen heard the words and said, "That's good." ”
When Bao Pu came over with the tonic soup stewed in the kitchen, he saw Shen standing in front of the door, and he stepped forward and said, "Childe, your injuries are not healed, why are you standing outside?" ”
"I've gotten a lot better, don't make a fuss." His gaze fell on Bao Pu's hand, "What's the end?" ”
"The pigeon soup stewed in the kitchen is a recipe left by the doctor in the afternoon, saying that drinking it can replenish qi and blood, and it is good for the son's body."
Hug Pu before and after, Shen opened the lid and smelled it: "Is there anything else?" ”
"Yes."
"Go and send one to the other side of the courtyard."
The child was thin and dry like a stick, and he didn't grow much in size, so he had to make up for it.
……
Shen not only left Xue Nuo to live on the side of the courtyard, but also sent her a servant to serve.
Seeing that the kid named "Shuangrui" came in from outside happily with something, Xue Nuo, who was lying on the table, held the book in his hand and pressed the paper underneath.
"Arnold, the eldest prince has someone bring pigeon soup over there."
Shuangrui didn't know Xue Nuo's identity, but it was already a great thing for him that a sweeper could enter the Flynn Courtyard to serve, and besides, this Xue Xiaogongzi looked like the person in the painting, and he had a good temperament, so he asked him to call him by his name when he saw him.
Shuangrui felt very satisfied to stay here, "Arnold, the eldest prince is really good to you, this pigeon soup smells and knows that it has been stewed for a long time, and it is a great supplement after drinking it, you can taste it." ”
Xue Nuo smiled: "Let's put it first, I'll drink it after memorizing this little book." ”
Shuangrui also knew that the eldest prince had arranged schoolwork for Xue Nuo, so he put down his things and said, "Then you remember to drink it while it's hot, it's fishy when it's cold, I'll go and clean up the bed for you first, so that you can rest later." ”
"Go ahead."
After sending Shuangrui away, Xue Nuo reached out and moved the book in front of him, and saw that some names were neatly written on the paper pressed underneath, and the words on it were crooked and twisted before they were gone, but the pen was sharp, and the ink penetrated the paper with a murderous atmosphere.
These are all people that Daddy Xue once told her about her mother back then.
There are those who framed their mothers and caused the princess's mansion to be bloodied, and there are also those who once received their mother's kindness, but later sat on the sidelines and watched or even fell into the well when they plotted rebellion.
Back then, Daddy Xue took her and her sister to flee around, and several times she narrowly escaped and survived thanks to the credit of some people here, and the name of Shen Zhongkang in the last position was also impressively listed.
When Xue Nuo leaned back in the chair, his face was not as tame as he had been during this time, and when the tail of the peach blossom eyes was lightly raised, there was an evil aura.
She glanced at the crockpot on the table, and then at Shen Zhongkang's name, remembering that Shen Qi's nerd had tried his best to plan for her future, and his eyes were full of admiration when he was talking about his grandfather, she looked slight, took a pen and circled Shen Zhongkang and threw it aside, and then picked among the remaining names.
Who should I start with......
Xue Nuo groaned as he rested his pen against the side of his face.
Zhan Changdong should be able to enter Beijing within half a month at the latest, and the matter of Caoyun has reached the front of the saint, and the most implicated person is not only the Cao Si, but also the household department in charge of taxes in various places.
The Cao Yun Division has to enter Beijing every year to resettle, and the household department will also send inspectors to the Cao Division to inspect some things.
There was a problem with Caosi's account books, and it was impossible for the household department not to know about it.
Once Zhan Changdong pulls Zhu Ying down, the Hubu side will inevitably be affected, thinking of this, Xue Nuo's eyes fell on Meng Dehui, the Shangshu of the Hubu, and hooked the corners of his mouth:
That's it!
He folded the paper and took the lampshade next to it, watching the names on the paper melt into ashes.
Xue Nuo put the lampshade back, wiped the ink stained on his fingertips, and reached out to hold the pigeon soup on the table.
"The news of Shen's return to Beijing will spread tomorrow, and Qiu Changqing's side should also know that I am coming, and I don't know when he will be able to find him......"
She has not returned to Beijing for several years, and she still stays to inquire about a lot of news in Beijing.
If she wants to avenge her mother, and even overturn the old case of rebellion seven years ago, there can be no mistakes in it, if you want to do it, you have to be quick and accurate, at least she can't expose herself before solving some people to be solved, she also has to be familiar with the affairs of Beijing as soon as possible, and even know some things.
Xue Nuo muttered two sentences in a low voice, scooped the soup and took a sip, and when the extremely rich pigeon soup slid down her throat, she couldn't help but light up her eyes,
"This Shen family's cook can ......"
The soup is fresh and thick, but it's not greasy at all.
Delicious!
……
After Xue Nuo saw Shen Zhongkang, it was equivalent to crossing the Ming Road in the Shen family, and everyone knew that the old man had agreed to let him stay in Flynn Courtyard as a guest, so Shen Yuechan, who was waiting for Xue Nuo to be able to drive him out, was so angry that she almost shed tears again.
Shen Changrui is a Taotao, except when he went to the clan school, he ran to Flynn Courtyard when he had nothing to do, and by the way, he also pulled Shen Changlin with him.
After two or three days, the relationship between the two and Xue Nuo became familiar.
Looking at Xue Nuo hugging the "homework" given to him by Shen Ke, Shen Changrui's face was full of sympathy: "Why is the eldest brother so ruthless, you have just started your studies, how can you memorize so many books in three days?" He also said that you can only go out to play after you have memorized it, and when it's over, you're afraid you won't be able to go out. ”
Xue Nuo tilted his head: "Is it difficult?" ”
"Isn't it difficult?!" Shen Changrui's expression was exaggerated.
Xue Nuo blinked: "It's not difficult, I've memorized everything." ”
“……”
Shen Changrui's body was crooked, and his arm that was holding the table smashed down, almost twisting his neck.
