Begonia's face was expressionless, naturally calm as if she really believed the story Zhou Wenjun said.

But deep down, she knew clearly that there had never been any sister of Concubine Xu Xian. Concubine Xu Xian was the second concubine who married into the palace, and when she became a palace member next to the Empress Dowager Zhou, she was already a married woman. The reef that came back from rebirth can prove this, and many people know the truth about the second marriage of the Empress Dowager Xu in the previous life, and even the low-level secret agent of Jinyiwei like him knows it clearly. Emperor Deguang did not deny it, the new monarch who succeeded him did not deny it, and even the Empress Dowager Xu herself admitted it. She also deliberately treated her ex-husband's relatives preferentially, and indulged them like real royal relatives, otherwise where did the second room of the Jin family come from for many years?

Since Jin Juren is actually Concubine Xu Xian's ex-husband, not her sister's husband, what is the version that Zhou Wenjun said?

Did Empress Dowager Zhou make up lies to her parents, or did Zhen Guogong and the old military advisor think that the facts are too appalling, so they made a small embellishment and distorted the truth?

But no matter which one it is, this version of the Jin family story seems to be more acceptable to the world. There is no king who takes a wife, and there is no abandonment of husband and child, only a brotherhood between a poor sister who died young, and her sister, who was suddenly honored by the king's favor.

Jin Jiashu's identity is no longer embarrassing, but he looks more innocent and pitiful. What's wrong with him? He lost his mother before he was a year old, and then his father married his stepmother, and he seemed to have lost his father as well. He struggled to grow so big, although he had a noble aunt, but because of his aunt, his life was in danger. He had lost all his relatives, and even his people were no longer reliable, and he was alone in a strange place to nurse his wounds, without relatives. He only has one relative, his aunt, but she is thousands of miles away from him, and he still has to snort in the deep palace, how can he help him? Now he can only count on the Zhenguo Mansion where his uncle's benefactor, Empress Dowager Zhou, instructed his father Jin Juren to defect.

Haitang listened to Zhou Wenjun and Zhou Yijun talk about the discussion between the Duchess of Zhenguo and several daughters-in-law, and felt that Jin Jiashu's situation was a bit troublesome now, he was injured and had difficulty moving, so he couldn't move to Chang'an City to recuperate, but the Jin family's future affairs needed to be dealt with.

Someone suggested that the people in the second room of the Jin family should be brought in, anyway, there is a Zhou family staring at them, and there is no need to worry that they will be unfavorable to Jin Jiashu.

But some people think that the second room of the Jin family betrayed the Jin Juren family, and they should be arrested and brought to justice, so how can they take care of the victim's funeral?

Some people also think that since the Empress Dowager Zhou wrote a handwritten letter back to her parents' house and asked the Zhenguo Gong and his wife to take care of the Jin family, then the Zhenguo Mansion should come forward to help Jin Jiashu deal with those affairs that he can't handle for the time being. As for how he will arrange it after he recovers from his injuries in the future, he will write to Beijing to ask the Queen Mother and Concubine Xu Xian.

But at the same time, there are a small number of people who feel that Jin Jiashu is a hot potato and needs to be treated carefully. If he is in danger again in Chang'an, or if he is not healed from his injuries and is left disabled, will Concubine Xu Xian complain about the Zhou family because of this? Although she was born in Cining Palace, she is not a daughter of the Zhou family after all, but she is now a virtuous concubine, and she also gave birth to the only surviving son of the emperor in terms of etiquette, and she will definitely become the next generation of the Queen Mother. The Zhou family can't really offend people, and when arranging her nephew, she needs to be cautious.

The Zhou family has offended Emperor Deguang because of the ancestral precepts that they have been strictly abiding, and they have suffered for many years, and even the Northwest Frontier Army has suffered. They can't afford to offend a new monarch – the mother of the new monarch to be precise – and let the Northwest suffer decades of injustice!

The discussion between the Duchess of Zhenguo, the mother-in-law and the others has been fruitless, and the Duke of Zhenguo and his sons are still busy interrogating Zhang Pinggui, the assassin of the Sun family. Zhou Wenjun could only overhear some information, or grind some gossip from her cousins, but there were still many hidden things that they refused to reveal to her. She could only turn to Haitang for help, hoping that Haitang could find out more from Xie Wenzai, the confidant of the Duke of Zhenguo.

Haitang promised Zhou Wenjun that he would find a way to get more details from his cousin Xie Wenzai's mouth, and then turn around and tell the other party. It's just that right now, she still has to tell Zhou Wenjun about the information she has now, in exchange for the information she currently has within the Zhenguo Mansion.

"Although I don't know how the killer knew in advance which way the Jin family would go, they have been guarding the road to the veteran Zhuangzi and ambushing the Jin family...... "Haitang told his family how he rescued Jin Jiashu in the first place, and mentioned that his brother Haijiao "discovered" that there was a secret letter in Jin Jiashu's robe. She deliberately lowered her sense of presence in the whole story, put the credit on her brother as much as possible, and then skipped the content of the secret letter, and directly talked about the killers' second assassination but were caught.

Zhou Wenjun and Zhou Yijun only felt that the story was climactic, tense and exciting, and let out a small exclamation from time to time, and when they learned that Haijiao had pursued Zhang Pinggui for several miles, they fought with him several times, and almost caught people, and they held their breath. When they learned that Zhang Pinggui had been rescued, and the person who rescued him was using some kind of special arrow, they all showed meaningful expressions.

Obviously, the two daughters of the Zhou family had heard of the origin of that arrow, and knew that Du Boqin played a disgraceful role in the whole thing. The image of a good son-in-law he created in the hearts of the Zhou family in the past has completely collapsed.

Haitang told her about the reef again, and the veterans of the Zhou family and the government officials searched the summer town, but they didn't find Zhang Pinggui and his accomplices, and told the two Miss Zhou.

Zhou Wenjun immediately thought: "I returned to Chang'an at about that time, so I also heard about it...... There was a Du family's carriage that almost hit someone on the front street. It was obviously the other party's fault, but the Du family coachman had no intention of pursuing it at all, but took the initiative to compensate the person, and also lost the money, and then left in a hurry. She turned her head to look at Zhou Yijun, "The carriage is going in the direction of your third room." Some people privately discussed, saying when did Commander Du have such a good relationship with Sanfang? What do you do when you send someone to the third room? I thought they were mistaken, Commander Du was the son-in-law of Qifang, and the carriage should have gone to Qifang. But now that I think about it, they weren't mistaken......"

Zhou Yijun swallowed his saliva: "The days should be about the same, Zhang Pinggui came to our house at that time...... However, he claimed to be the son of the second uncle's ancestor of the old department, and everything related to him was handled by the old lady. My grandmother didn't dare to ask more......"

Haitang also told Zhang Pinggui about the complicated relationship between Zhang Pinggui and Zhou Shuyi and the Sun family, as well as the past of Zhang Pinggui's parents, and then mentioned the speculation of his brother and sister: "They may want to lay out in advance, let the aunt and grandfather make some connections for the Hou Shizi of Yingchuan, decide where to go for the future training, and then send Zhang Pinggui over in advance, so that the Hou Shizi of Yingchuan will not be suspicious of his identity when he meets him in the future." If he wants to start, it will be more convenient. The Yingchuan Marquis Mansion will only find the three-room ...... after the fact."

Haitang knows the situation, and basically says what she can say, and naturally she won't mention it if she can't say it. Some speculations, although she has no evidence, but with all kinds of facts, it seems very credible.

Zhou Yijun recalled what she had learned in the third room, and nodded frequently, indicating that what Sister Hai said was the truth.

Zhou Wenjun let out a long sigh of satisfaction: "I see...... No wonder my grandparents didn't want me to let me know. It's really chilling for my aunt and grandmother to do such a thing...... she paused, "My great-uncle and grandmother knew that it was wrong, and they connived at my aunt and grandmother to betray their relatives, I wonder what grandfather and grandmother will do with her this time?" ”
