Chapter 85: Clever calculations, all misunderstandings
Xie Xun is a very actionable person.
Coming out of the clouds.
After Wen Baolin sent them back to the Duke of Xu's mansion according to Xu Zhan's explanation, he immediately asked Xu Zhan to arrange for someone to follow him to his house.
Wen Baolin's relationship with Xu Zhanpan in Yanchunlou today, whether it is that Lang General or Song Fu's grandfather Song Shizhong, as long as you pay attention to Yanchunlou, you will receive news. As long as they pay attention, they will definitely know the news that the people of the Xu Guogong Mansion sent Wen Baolin home.
No matter how Song Shizhong sat in the position of Shaoqing of Taifu Temple, being able to sit firmly for so many years means that he is a smart person.
Since he is a wise man, he will not act rashly.
Xie Xun is the secretary of Dali Temple, and he only needs a simple sentence to transfer Wen Baolin and his father to Dali Temple.
But he didn't.
On the premise of ensuring the safety of Wen Baolin and his family, he needs to stimulate the people related to the disappearance of the boy and girl through Wen Baolin's contact with Xu Zan or him.
If you say too much, you will lose, and if you do too much, you will pass.
Whether it was their previous investigation or Wen Baolin's secret investigation, although they were referring to the Peace Square, they still didn't know anything about the Colosseum in the Peace Square.
In order to get the internal situation, it is necessary to divide it.
Therefore, after settling Wen Baolin, Xie Xun immediately returned to Dali Temple and suddenly interrogated the shopkeeper of Yanchun Building overnight.
Chen Anning also wanted to go back to Chen's house, but was surrounded by Xu Zhan's aunt, mother and little aunt. There were no outsiders present, and the curiosity of the three of them about her turned into a flame of enthusiasm, and it was not until the middle of the night that she couldn't stay anymore, so they reluctantly let her go.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed in a flash.
In the past three days, Xie Xun did not come to Chen's house.
Chen Anning's progress on the case can only be through Xu Zan and the guards to vigorously investigate Yanchun Tower and search the Lifang where young men and girls are missing, and the ruffians and beggars poured into Heping Fang in large numbers, which led to the exposure of the re-prosperity of Heping Fang, which attracted many sons, young ladies or business travelers to go to see the strange and lively news, and deduce one or two.
It's time to give needles to the eldest princess again.
Chen Anning didn't even eat breakfast, so he set off in a carriage.
So much so that recently, the Qiu family, who had been fighting wits and courage with Mrs. Chen and Chen Fanghai every day, and successfully won the power of the Chen family's back house, came to report the results of the battle, and wanted to take the opportunity to ask for rewards, but they all came up empty.
When Chen Anning arrived at the eldest princess's mansion, the eldest princess had just finished breakfast and was nesting in the soft couch, talking homely with the county lord of Tongchang and Wen Qinsang who came over last night.
When they heard the maidservant report that she was coming, they were all stunned for a moment.
After asking Mama Li to hurry to the second gate to greet her, the eldest princess and the county lord of Tongchang looked at Wen Qinsang at the same time.
The news that the emperor gave Xie Xun and Chen Anning the marriage, after the eldest princess learned about it, she immediately asked people to go to the Guozijian to tell him.
Wen Qinsang's expression was not unusual, and he looked at the concerned eyes of the two of them, and smiled gently: "I do have a good impression of Miss Chen Er, but my friendship with her has always ended as a friend. Without the emperor's marriage, I will try my best to fight for it. With the emperor's marriage, it's not bad to continue to be friends. I came here this time not to find out why she was given marriage, but to make sure that their marriage would not affect the eldest princess's mansion. ”
"It's because of me," the eldest princess's face was faintly gloomy with a few decompositions to relieve it, "The Medicine King Valley has been destroyed for many years, even if she is a disciple of Liu Xiuzhu and Yin Xi's weakness, she is also lonely, coupled with the Chen family's unbearable situation, I expect that no matter how dissatisfied the palace is with the eldest princess's mansion, I shouldn't be suspicious because I look at her differently." ”
The corners of his mouth hooked mockingly, "It's me who underestimated his desire to get rid of me." ”
The county lord of Tongchang swept around the grandmother and maidservant girl in the house with cold eyes, and saw that they were all confidants, so he relaxed his vigilance.
Wen Qinsang also swept around the grandmother and maidservant in the house, and said slowly: "Uncle didn't underestimate the hidden crisis in the eldest princess's mansion, but underestimated Miss Chen Er. ”
"After Miss Chen Er returned to the capital, she endured the beatings, scolding and bullying of everyone in the Chen family, so it can be inferred that she is not an ordinary person."
The county lord of Tongchang said with interest: "You mean, when she was calculated by Chen Ziling, she was also calculating Chen Ziling?" ”
Wen Qinsang shook his head, "I don't know. But whether it is or not, it is not a bad thing for her aunt to look at her differently, and even a good thing that exceeds expectations. ”
The county lord of Tongchang said with great interest: "What do you say? ”
Wen Qinsang got up and walked to the window, looked at the direction of the gate of Qifeng Courtyard, and said in a low and slow voice: "The emperor gave her and Lord Xie a marriage, and if her aunt befriended her, it was equivalent to befriending Lord Xie." Behind Lord Xie is the Guangling Palace, and the Guangling Mansion is the most trusted person by the emperor in Great Wei! ”
After the eldest princess and the county lord of Tongchang sat up straight at the same time, they glanced at each other at the same time.
Turning around and looking at the two of them, Wen Qinsang spoke again, "Those rumors on the streets and alleys earlier that Miss Chen Er stammered to curry favor with Lord Xie, and asked Lord Xie to meet at what time, they were all specially passed on by Lord Xie. ”
"Judging from Master Xie's style of investigating cases in the past, he often can not only ignore the laws of Great Wei in order to seek results, but also unscrupulous means."
"Then he deliberately let people spread rumors about the purpose of destroying Miss Chen Er's reputation, including the emperor's marriage, and it is self-evident."
"Combined with the fact that he has been investigating the cases of young boys and girls for the past two or three months, but there has been no progress for a long time, after the rumors spread those words, he lived in Chen's house openly, and soon Miss Chen Er investigated the case with him, and it became even more clear."
The county lord of Tongchang said thoughtfully: "According to your analysis, not only Chen Ziling is the one who was calculated, but even Lord Xie is. ”
"With Chen Ziling's calculations, showing his talent to lure Lord Xie is really a clever calculation!"
"The most shocking thing is that when she calculates them, she can still treat her mother's head disease with all her calculations, so as to leave a way out for herself!"
Wen Qinsang hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, and did not reject her speculation.
"If that's the case," said the eldest princess, "then the eldest princess's mansion will not be good enough for her." ”
"Don't be too deliberate," Wen Qinsang reminded, "As long as you are sincere in getting along with her, don't hide anything, and pay regardless of gains and losses, she is not an ungrateful person." ”
Tongchang County Lord quipped: "How does my cousin know that she is not an ungrateful person." ”
"Didn't you say that she treated her aunt for a head disease, in order to leave a way out for herself?" Wen Qinsang said, "Now she has no last resort, and she has successfully lured Lord Xie to take the bait, so she doesn't have to leave a way to retreat, but she still comes." ”
As soon as the words fell, he turned his head as if he had a feeling, looked at the direction of the gate of Qifeng Courtyard, and said softly, "She's here." ”
Chen Anning, who followed Mama Li into Qifeng Courtyard, also raised her eyes as if she had a feeling and looked over.
