As soon as Ye Nian returned to the mansion with Yuliu Ziyun, Fu An greeted him: "Miss, a guest is looking for you!" ”

Could it be Prince De?

Ye Nian walked into the front hall, but he didn't expect it to be Su Jue, the shopkeeper of Tongbao Pavilion!

Su Jue hurriedly greeted him and gave a salute: "Su Jue has seen General Ye!" ”

"Why is Shopkeeper Su here? Could it be that I am missing your money? Or come to me for a jade lock? Ye Nianjing sat on the main seat, and his tone was a little ridiculous.

At this moment, Su Jue actually felt that the momentum of this little general Ye was somewhat similar to that of his own master!

"The little general said he was laughing!" Su Jue glanced at the guy standing beside him, and the guy hurriedly presented the gift box and silver ticket with both hands.

"Su Jue is stupid, he dares to accept the little general's silver, the master has already taught him a lesson! This is the little general's silver ticket refunded in full! ”

Ye Nian frowned, not knowing which his master was.

"These are the thank you gifts from the master, please look at the little general, if you can't look at it, as long as there is Tongbao Pavilion, the little general will command!"

The guy opened the gift box one by one, Ye Nian glanced at it, the value of these things was more than ten times more expensive than the one she bought today!

"Who is your master?"

The smile on Su Jue's face froze, who in this capital didn't know that Tongbao Pavilion was the property of the Luo family?

"The little general and noble people forget a lot of things, and there is naturally only one owner of the Luo family in Beijing."

The Luo family? Ye Nian's confused energy receded in an instant!

The Luo family, which is rich and rivals the country, and has businesses all over the four countries? Luo Guifei's mother's family, Xiao Siyu's maternal grandfather?!

Could it be that Xiao Siyu sent it?

Ye Nian thought that he was in a bad mood that night, and his attitude towards Xiao Siyu was a little bad, and he didn't have a good face towards himself at the city gate this morning...... Did this man give a thank you gift because he wanted to draw a line?

Ye Nian thought of this, and smiled helplessly, it's okay!

She got up and said to Su Jue: "I accepted this thank you gift, go back and tell your master, I have cleared up with him!" ”

*

Su Jue knelt on the ground in the prison of the Criminal Department, his heart was like ashes.

"Su Jue!" Xiao Siyu gritted his teeth in anger, "What else can you do!" ”

"This king just asked you to send a thank you gift, you can actually send two Qing!!"

"This king really wants to strangle you!"

As soon as Ye Zhao came back from the army, he learned from Fu'an that Ah Nian had looked for him several times today, and he had guessed in his heart that he hadn't changed his clothes, so he walked towards Ye Nian's courtyard.

Ziyun saw Ye Zhao coming, and hurriedly greeted him: "The master has been waiting for the general, and he is asleep at this time, the general will wait for me to get the master up!" ”

Ye Zhao stopped her: "No need, when Ah Nian wakes up, let her go to the study to find me!" ”

An hour later, Ye Nian pushed open the door of the study and saw his father standing in front of the window with his back to him.

"Daddy?"

The sadness on Ye Zhao's face flashed, and he turned around and squeezed out a smile and walked towards her.

He handed the letter in his hand to Ye Nian: "The truth of Rongcheng, I'll talk to you when you finish reading this letter!" ”

Ye Nian was a little puzzled, took it and took out the letter paper, she saw the last look of disbelief and looked up at her father: "Zhao Yanshu defected to the enemy and treasoned?" He actually committed suicide?! ”

Ye Zhao frowned, his face was a little sad, and he nodded slowly.

Ye Nian was puzzled: "The letter said that Rongcheng was trapped for more than two months without water and food, but the capital will send troops to arrive in ten days at the earliest!" If the nearest garrison of the three states is ordered, it will only take seven days at the latest! Why didn't the emperor send troops? ”

"After receiving the news of Rongcheng's urgency, I was anxious and immediately asked to lead the troops, and rushed to the border of Rongcheng on the tenth day, when Rongcheng had been captured by Shang Liao."

Ye Nian was shocked in his heart: "Father means that Rongcheng's emergency battle report was deliberately suppressed?" ”

Ye Zhao shook his head: "There is no evidence, only this letter that Yanshu handed over to me before he died." ”

Ye Zhao thought of the scene of Zhao Yanshu killing himself, and his face was full of sadness.

Ye Nian asked, "Did my father check the truth back then?"

"No matter what the truth is, Zhao Yanshu's defection to the enemy and treason has become a fact, no one will care that he let Shang Liao enter the city in order to have a way for the people in the city to live, and no one will think that he will be ambitious with death!"

Ye Zhao was a little excited, and his eyes were red: "I know that my best friend was framed, but I don't dare and can't investigate!" If he is charged with treason against the enemy, he will be punished by the Nine Clans, and his son Zhao Rong was only three years old at the time! ”

Ye Zhao took a deep breath and said in a low tone: "Dad doesn't want to mention this matter because this battle is a stain that I can't erase in my life!" ”

"Before Yanshu died, he begged me to save the lives of his wife and children no matter what! In order to cover up the evidence of his collaboration with the enemy, I destroyed his handwritten surrender letter, and killed all the officials and captives of Shang Liao who knew the inside story! Finally, in the war report, Zhao Yanshu's death was changed to a death. I was full of anger at the time, I just wanted to avenge him, and after recapturing Rongcheng, I ignored the emperor's order to return to Beijing to attack and captured the capital of Shangliao in one fell swoop! ”

Ye Zhao's expression was sad: "If I could have calmed down at that time and obeyed the order to return to Beijing, I wouldn't have even seen your mother's last face!" ”

The depression in Ye Nian's heart disappeared at this time! Father is really still the general who stands up to the sky and the earth in his memory!

Her eyes were red, and she breathed a sigh of relief, she finally didn't owe him anything!

Ye Nian watched her father smile happily, and she only had reverence for her father in her heart: as a close friend, he can slaughter a country; For the beloved, you can keep it for a lifetime!

Ye Zhao was sad but saw his silly girl smiling heartlessly, and he was suddenly a little helpless, and the sadness brewing faded seven or eight times.

Ye Nian suddenly remembered that Zhao Yanshu's son was called Zhao Rong, and the letter in the secret room was also signed by the word Rong, so he asked his father: "Is Zhao Mocheng Zhao Rong?" ”

Ye Zhao glanced at her and nodded: "Although Yanshu was relegated to Rongcheng, he likes that place very much, saying that it is close to his hometown, and he can really seek some benefits for the villagers." After the birth of his son, he took the character Rong Cheng for Rong Cheng. Yanshu once made an appointment with me in the letter, and when he returned to Beijing to report on his duties, he would bring Rong'er to the mansion to propose marriage."

Ye Zhao smiled with red eyes: "You weren't born at the time, so he was sure that it must be his daughter-in-law......

Ye Zhao choked up a little, turned his back to Ye Nian and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"You once asked me why I brought Zhao Mocheng into the mansion, you should understand now, if it wasn't for Yanshu's accident, the two of you would have had a marriage contract a long time ago...... Alas, if Zhao Rong could have half of his father's temperament, you and him would not have come to this day! ”

"How did Dad meet Zhao Mocheng back then?"

Ye Zhao thought about it carefully and said: "After I attended Mrs. Han's birthday that day, on the way back, I saw someone making noise in front of me, blocking the way, and when I got closer, it was a few disciples who were bullying a woman. ”

Zhao Mocheng stepped forward to protect the woman behind him, and suffered many colors on his body with fists and feet, and he did not take half a step back. I admired his arrogance, so I stepped forward to drive away the disciples. ”

"Who knew that the woman was actually the person who bought it from the kitchen in the house."

"I looked closely at this scholar's eyebrows and eyes like a book, so I asked him who else was in the family, he said that he lost his father when he was a child, and his mother fled to Mizhou to join distant relatives, and his mother died of illness not long after, and he came to the capital alone to participate in this year's examination."

"His age is also the same as Zhao Rong, I saw that he was carrying a burden, poorly dressed, and had nowhere to live, so I took him back to the house."

Ye Nian asked, "Doesn't Dad think this matter is a bit of a coincidence?" ”

Ye Zhao nodded and replied: "I didn't doubt it back then, but he is a poor scholar with no relatives, how can he have the ability to find out the purchasing time of the people in the mansion and plan it!" ”

Ye Nian pondered for a moment: "Dad knows that Zhao Yanshu and her wife have relatives and friends in Yizhou Shang County?" ”

Ye Zhao thought for a moment and shook his head and replied: "No, after the war was calmed down that year, I sent someone to find their mother and son, and all the distant relatives and close relatives did not have a clue. It was found that he had no relatives in Yizhou. Ah Nian, why do you have this question? ”

Ye Nian took a deep breath, not wanting to hide anything from his father: "Dad, I have something to tell you next, don't worry, listen to me slowly!"

Ye Zhao saw that she had a serious look on her face, so he nodded seriously.

"There is a secret room in Zhao Mocheng's study, he took me in on the night of the wedding, which is the spiritual position of his parents, and it was also on that night that I learned that he hated his father to the bone, and he knew the truth about Rongcheng back then, no! It should be said that someone deliberately let him know the 'truth', he always thought that it was you who killed Zhao Yanshu! Now that I think about it, I'm afraid that I will meet my father, enter the General's Mansion, and finally marry me have been planned for a long time! Just for revenge! ”

Ye Zhao was extremely shocked!

Ye Nian continued: "Now Zhao Mocheng and Shen Bingwen are both interested in the Four Princes, and their father was assassinated and injured before they went on the expedition, and they arranged it, just to send me to the battlefield. Moreover, the three princes were ambushed in Wushiling, I am afraid that they also arranged traitors in the army, and they wanted to take advantage of this to get rid of the three princes and the general's mansion in one fell swoop, but fortunately, their daughter noticed it in advance and rescued them in time, so they did not let their treacherous plan succeed! ”

Ye Zhao was angry and distressed at this time!

"My daughter found out that Zhao Mocheng sent a letter to Yizhou Shang County every two months through Qin Shang, the housekeeper in the house, and I guessed that the person who corresponded with him was probably the one who knew about the battle of Rongcheng back then!"

Ye Zhao pondered for a long time, and suddenly thought of a person: "If you say that you are in the know, there is only one person whose life and death are unknown: Wu Ze, the general judge of Rongcheng!" ”

"He is Zhao Yanshu's most trusted subordinate, and he also came forward to negotiate with Shang Liao, but this person escaped in advance when I arrived in Rongcheng, and finally fell off the cliff with an arrow in the leg during the pursuit, and the body was not found at that time, it is possible that he is still alive!"

Ye Nian thought for a moment and looked at Ye Zhao: "Dad, I'm going to Yizhou!" ”

Ye Zhao's face was shocked: "Nonsense!" The county is so big, how do you find it? After so many years, it is very likely that Wu Ze has changed his name and surname, and trying to find him is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack! ”

Ye Zhao sighed and persuaded her: "Ah Nian, even if you find it, even if Zhao Mocheng knows the truth, there is no guarantee that he will change his mind!" ”

Ye Nian shook his head: "Zhao Mocheng may just be a pawn against the General's Mansion, and there is someone else behind the scenes." And Wu is the biggest variable, I am afraid that he has evidence of Zhao Yanshu's collaboration with the enemy back then. If the truth of Rongcheng was leaked, not only Zhao Mocheng, but also the General's Mansion would bear the brunt. So, Yizhou, I'm definitely going! I will get rid of this man! ”

Ye Zhao knew Ye Nian's temper, and also understood that she was right, since he couldn't stop her, he decided to let go and support her on this trip: "When will you leave?" ”

"Tonight!"

Ye Zhao was stunned, daring to love this girl had already planned!
