Chapter 167, a filial daughter who has been filial to her uncle for three years
"Childe, this is the letter that was thrown in from outside the wall." The mother-in-law touched her head and said, the pebble was smashing on her head, and it was still dull and painful, "When the slave went out of the back door, there was no one in sight." ”
Xing Qi took the letter and looked at the words on it, "Xing Gongzi personally opened".
This is indeed a letter to himself, his brows couldn't help frowning, something happened to his mother, but fortunately he was rescued, but his leg was broken, and the coachman who was driving the car at that time saw that there was such a big thing in the master's house, and when the criminal house was in chaos, he ran away directly.
When Mrs. Xing's body stabilized, Xing Qi and his father came to find someone with their free hands, but this person had long since disappeared, and now there is nothing to be found, and the people in the house said that the person ran away that day.
Master Xing and Xing Qi also discussed, and always felt that this matter was strange, how could they just hit the tree, and they didn't have to go through that road on the way to Zhengyuanhou's Mansion, this was a detour, and now the coachman has fled without a trace, although others guess that he is afraid, the father and son feel that there is a problem here.
But even if there is a problem, no one can be found at this time, and there is no clue if you want to check, Mrs. Xing was in the carriage at the time, and she didn't know why the carriage was rerouted, whether it was because of too many people or other reasons, no one knew clearly.
Now that there is a strange letter thrown into his house, Xing Qi has a strange feeling, he is silent for a while and opens the letter, and after reading the letter, his face immediately changes.
"Where's Father?" Xing Qi asked the little guy who ran over with sweat just now, he had something to find his father.
"The mansion where the adult just returned, the slave originally wanted to report to the son." The little guy hurriedly said that he was going to inquire about the news.
"Don't spread the word about this." Xing Qi told his mother-in-law, let the little maid give a reward, turned around and hurriedly went to the study in the outer courtyard.
In the study, Master Xing was reading the official document, and when he saw his son hurriedly coming over with a letter, he thought it was news, and hurriedly put down the official document in his hand: "Found the coachman?" ”
"Father, please look." Xing Qi shook his head and handed over the letter in his hand.
Master Xing looked at his son's somewhat pale face suspiciously, and didn't ask any more, took out the letter and looked at it at three lines, and after reading it, he slapped the table with his hand vigorously: "It's really not a thing." ”
"Father...... What do you think? Xing Qi said.
"The Marquis Mansion of Zhengyuan is really too deceitful." Master Xing sneered, although he is a fourth-grade official, he is a fourth-grade official with real power, not much worse than some high-grade officials who have no real power.
The criminal master entered the court as an official after the scientific examination, and did not abandon his wife, and entered Beijing with his wife, which is worse than the old family, but it is also much quieter than many old families, and there is only one old wife in the house, and the old wife has a very good relationship, giving birth to a son and a daughter.
The daughter has been married, and the son has already married, but because of the delay of waiting for Yu Lanxue, Hu Lanxue has to keep filial piety for the Marquis of Zhengyuan for three years, and the son has been delayed for three years.
Keeping filial piety for his uncle for three years, this sounds very filial, but when you think about it, it is not necessary, but in the end, the criminal government also agreed, and Mrs. Xing even said in private that Yu Lanxue is a good person, such a heavy affection, it will not be bad in the future, even if it is a wait.
The family affairs of the two families were decided early, and Mrs. Zhengyuan Marquis vigorously maneuvered, Mrs. Xing had only entered Beijing at the beginning, she didn't know many people, and her status was lower, it was difficult to squeeze into the circle of Mrs. Zhengyuan, or Mrs. Zhengyuan Marquis was kind to her, and she took her with her alone, which also made her quickly integrate into the circle of Mrs. of the family.
Although there are still people who look down on her, there must be Mrs. Zhengyuanhou, and others will talk about her behind her back, and they will not embarrass her in person.
When talking about this past, Mrs. Xing was very grateful, and after Mrs. Xing's official position was raised, she lost this confusion.
Mrs. Zhengyuan Marquis repeatedly assured that her niece is a good one, after seeing Yu Lanxue, Mrs. Xing also felt good, and if there was Mrs. Zhengyuan Marquis, this family matter was booked, and then Yu Lanxue wanted to keep filial piety for her uncle for three years, and Mrs. Xing agreed after thinking about it.
"Father, what now? Do you go to worship the day after tomorrow? Xing Qi asked.
"Go, why don't you go, how to see that family clearly if you don't go." Master Xing sneered, "Because of your mother's affairs, I still feel sorry for Mrs. Zhengyuan and the county monarch, let you go to worship again, I didn't expect others to count us a long time ago." ”
Xing Qi's heart suddenly moved, and he hesitated for a moment and said, "Father, what did you say about your mother...... Could it have something to do with it? ”
Master Xing's face turned blue: "You mean that the coachman was instigated by someone?" ”
"Father, although the people in the house said that the coachman was afraid to escape, and said that the coachman was frightened when he came back that day, and left with a little something, and he didn't even pack his clothes, and he was frightened at first glance, but did my father really think so?" Xing Qi said in a deep voice.
Xingfu is not a family, Xingqi is also preparing for scientific examinations, and he usually studies in the mansion, Xingqi reads well, and his brain turns fast.
Two different things were immediately linked by him, and Master Xing's head nodded heavily: "The coachman's thing...... It looks like I'm really afraid of escaping, but if your mother hadn't had an accident at that time, we would have gone together when we were at the funeral, and now there is no such thing as going to the Marquis Mansion to worship alone. ”
If things can't be explained in the right way, then explain them backwards.
Without this if, even if Yu Lanxue has an idea, she can't calculate it on their heads at this time, the letter said that the matter of withdrawing from relatives is very urgent, because Yu Lanxue has already fallen in love with someone else, and she must solve this family affair.
Not only did he have to solve this family business, but he also had to put the fault on the man.
Xing Qi is also a person who wants to participate in the imperial examination, his reputation is very important, it is related to whether he can enter the court as an official after the examination, if his future is ruined because of character problems, all the learning he has learned for so many years will be in vain.
From this point of view, Yu Lanxue's mind is extremely vicious, this is not just a matter of retiring relatives, but to ruin the person of Xingqi.
"The second room of the Marquis of Zhengyuan's Mansion counted us early?" Master Xing was silent for a moment, and the back of his hand was a violent protrusion of two green tendons, "If it weren't for the presence of the Marquis of Zhengyuan's Mansion, they would ...... What kind of thing? ”
"Father, if it is really the second room of the Marquis of Zhengyuan Mansion who calculates us, then things will not be simple." Xing Qi sighed lightly.
"How?" Master Xing asked, he had always been convinced of his son's intelligence.
"Father, it's not a simple matter to calculate your mother and think so thoroughly. Not only do you have to prevent you from finding out, but you also have to have the guts to do it. At that time, if Yahuan hadn't blocked her mother a little, her mother would have broken not only a leg, but even a ......"
Xing Qi sneered, he used to be quite optimistic about Yu Lanxue, looking at him as a gentle person, he was very cute from a distance, but now he shuddered when he thought about it, where is this gentle beauty, this is clearly a poisonous snake wearing the skin of a beautiful woman.
This family matter, even if Yu Lanxue doesn't mention it, Xing Qi who sees her true face clearly will not stay.
can do such a thing in the capital, dare to do such a thing, and even seek people's lives, and afterwards let the coachman disappear, and at that time, the people of the Marquis Mansion were locked up, this must be someone who helped the coachman, and this person is not small, otherwise he will check it himself, why there is no trace.
When I thought about it, I immediately understood what it meant.
"Family?" Although the criminal master was furious, he calmed down.
"It's not a big family, or it's backed by a royal person, or ......" Xing Qi finally pointed to it, which represented a royal person.
There are royal people involved in this family matter, and the criminal lord is sweating on his vest, and he has become more and more cautious after being an official for many years, especially the one sitting on it now, who doesn't look like a Ming Jun.
The vassal king is powerful, and the emperor doesn't want to rectify it well, but he asks for the heavens and ghosts day by day, and respects a Fang Shi as a national teacher.
The emperor is like this, but what about the others?
The status of the three adult princes is equal, although King Duan is the eldest son, but his biological mother's identity is comparable to the other two, and the queen mother did not give birth to a son-in-law.
The crown prince's position is still hanging high, everyone is restless, and they are secretly suspecting who the next emperor will be, and the hearts of the people in the court are unstable......
Thinking of this, both father and son were silent for a moment.
"Father, this family matter must be solved, even if the Marquis of Zhengyuan Mansion doesn't bring it up, we have to mention it." Xing Qi slowly spoke, clarifying his attitude.
"Qi'er, this is ...... Could it be fake? Master Xing hesitated for a moment, then looked at the envelope in his hand and said.
"Father, in fact, I have long felt that this matter is inappropriate, but at that time, my mother repeatedly said that the second room of the Marquis Mansion was good, especially Yu Lanxue, I felt that even if she was not the real daughter of the Hou Mansion, this bearing, this favor is worthy of the identity of the daughter of the Hou Mansion, but I have not heard of it since ancient times."
Xingqi Dao.
Mrs. Zhengyuan said...... She was almost her other daughter. Master Xing frowned and said, that's what he thought at the time.
"Even if Mrs. Zhengyuan Marquis really regards her as a daughter, what is it for her to keep filial piety for her uncle with such fanfare now? Is it to flaunt her identity, or is it to say that she wants to give us a dismissal, or something else? ”
Xing Qidao, he had such doubts at the beginning, but his mother was so insistent, and he didn't want to get married so early, so he followed Yu Lanxue's meaning, but now he thinks about it, but he has a lot of questions.
"Now...... What should I do? We can't quit for no reason, especially at times like these! Master Xing asked in a deep voice, his son is intelligent by nature, and he is even better than when he was younger......
