official's direct daughter

Chapter 263

Xinrong only said such a sentence and asked the painting fan to put down the food box, and then went out of the prison, leaving only the tenth brother to stare for a long time.

He really doesn't know what the reaction is after eating arsenic. It's just nonsense. No one cares when the poison will attack, but they don't want to be said that. The tenth brother knew that he was sure that the sixth sister was not killed by him, and he couldn't help smiling bitterly.

But he said that his heart went out, and Xia Houchen also went out of the door, but there was no servant guard in front of him.

In the main room of Xue's house, Ge's mother served the old lady to sleep and let the maid in front of her watch. If the old lady woke up, she said that she would go out to buy some rouge gouache for the second and third wives.

Ge's mother took five little maids out of the house, and these little maids were rare to come out of Xue's house in the past. When she arrived on the street, Mother Ge looked around and saw that the maids behind her were very red when they saw the small stalls on both sides of the street, so she ordered the maids to go to Yunshui Xiangxie to buy good rouge gouache and play after doing their business.

The maids got the order and dispersed in front of Ge's mother.

Mother Ge's eyes kept looking around, turned to a small alley, turned out of the alley, and then stopped in front of a yard.

Ge's mother looked panicked and knocked on the ring on the door.

Then I heard the person inside the door say, "Who's?"

"The one who sells sauced meat at the entrance!" Ge's mother answered and heard the door creak open a small crack, but she didn't see anyone inside.

She quickly entered the door, but she was an old man in his 60s. The old man did not say politely and said coldly, "The master is in it!"

Mother Ge was overjoyed. She followed the old man across the wall and turned a few corridors before she arrived at a small courtyard. This small yard was planted with many flowers, which looked extremely pleasant, and many green trees were hidden, quiet and comfortable.

The old man took Mother Ge into the room. His mother saw a curtain separating the room in the middle in half, but saw a rich man sitting in it and couldn't see his face clearly.

Mother Ge blessed herself and said, "Today, I saw the old lady take out a yellow silk cloth from the makeup in front of the dresser, and saw that the old lady looked extremely respectful."

"Can you see the words written on it clearly?" There was a deep sound inside.

"I didn't see it clearly, but the maidservant saw the seal of the jade seal on it." Ge's mother responded respectfully.

The person inside said again, "Go back!"

Ge's mother was anxious and said, "Do you think it should..."

"Your ancestors have been children of the Xue family for generations. It's not difficult to get your contract, but don't forget that what you want is the deed of selling the whole family." The man's voice inside was a little powerful and a little unhappy. Mother Ge stood there and was unwilling to leave. If she didn't leave, she was afraid that the master would be angry, which was really a real abandonment.

The person in it seemed to know Ge's mother's mind and recruited the old man, and the old man took out two deeds of sale from his arms.

Mother Ge took the deed with both hands and became excited. Isn't this the deed of her grandson and daughter-in-law?

She knelt on the ground with a poof and kowtow and said, "It's the maidservant who is anxious. I must have done everything for you!"

After saying that, the old man asked Ge's mother to leave quickly.

Ge's mother repeatedly said that she put the deed of selling in her arms like a baby and went out of the door with a happy smile on her face. She has been with the old lady for so many years. Now that in recent years, the old lady's body is far from the same as before, and she began to be suspicious again. Inadvertently, she heard the old lady have a nightmare and said that the sixth sister was not killed by her, and she was afraid.

What is the identity of the sixth sister? As the most powerful mother in front of the old lady, she naturally knows. The old lady had something to do with the death of the sixth sister, otherwise how could she have nightmares in the middle of the night to scare herself to death?

Ge's mother is old and has little hope, but her grandson is only one month old. The emperor refused to leave this matter alone. When the time came, the emperor knew that Xue Fu would definitely be exiled. She didn't want her grandson to suffer at such a young age. At this time, such a big man took her here and only said that he would stare at the old lady and report to him as long as there was anything.

She was frightened, but she didn't expect that the big man would promise to get out all the deed of selling her family. Even for her one-month-old grandson, she has to do this!

Ge's mother went out, and the people inside came out. It was Xia Houchen.

Not long ago, the emperor asked him to steal the death-free decree given by the former emperor to Xue's mansion. Even if Xue's mansion was not for the affairs of the sixth sister, the emperor had long wanted to do Xue's mansion. But Xue's house has the imperial edict of avoiding death. Even if he moves, he can't die. He can't understand his hatred. It is because of the emperor Xiahou Chen.

However, Xiahouchen didn't know where the death-free imperial edict was placed, so he invited Third Master Xue to go back and tell the old lady that the tenth brother's guilt had been given to see what the old lady had reacted. The old lady of the Xue family has always loved the tenth brother and regarded the tenth brother as the successor of the Xue family. If the tenth brother is gone, even if he still keep the gold medal to avoid death, the Xue family will also go to most of the time. So Xia Houchen thought that the old lady might take out the death-free edict!

"At least it was the imperial edict of the former emperor, but he got such treatment and was put in a narrow makeup. Such a thing can make the emperor take back the imperial edict of death!" Xiahouchen's eyes narrowed slightly, and a joke appeared on his lips.

The emperor wanted to take the Xue family, but his wife tried her best to get rid of the tenth brother. Xia Houchen was embarrassed. He asked the emperor what he meant. The emperor only said that the third house of the Xue family was a good one. At least this matter should not involve the third house. It was too difficult to cultivate talents, and the third house of the Xue family had to be preserved. It is even more difficult for Xiahouchen.

What's going on with the emperor? Anyway, things are messy enough to let his wife visit the tenth brother in prison.

"Master, what should we do now?" The old man asked with a bow.

Xiahouchen looked at the old man and sneered, "You only went back to the emperor, and said that the old lady of the Xue family did not respect the royal family and did not offer the decree of death, but put it in the makeup."

The look on the old man's face changed several times. If he really replied like this, the emperor would not be angry, but he replied, "Can I still stay here?"

Xia Houchen shook his head, "I'll send someone else to guard here. Go back to the emperor to serve!"

The old man is dumb, and Xia Houchen obviously doesn't like him.

The old man was helpless, but also said, "I'm going back to the emperor."

After saying that, he bowed to Xiahouchen and planned to leave here, but the voice of Xiahouchen's ridicult came to his ears: "Eunuch Chen, you'd better tear off the fake beard. When he returned to the palace like this, the emperor was not comfortable to see it."

The old man showed embarrassment and turned around to thank Xia Houchen and said, "Thank you for reminding me." After saying that, he left the yard as if he had escaped.

Xia Houchen is the only one left in the huge house. It's boring for him to stay here alone. It's time to go home. He sorted out the clothes without creases and went straight over the wall and out of the house.

When he got home, Xia Houchen saw Xinrong's eyebrows with joy, so he knew that Xinrong must know something and asked, "Brother Ten, did you tell the truth?"

"No, but the death of the sixth sister does have nothing to do with the tenth brother! You told me before that the tenth brother said that she poisoned the sixth sister with arsenic. Do you know how long it will take for people to die after eating arsenic? What are the symptoms before death? Say it eagerly.

"If it is heavy, about half a cup of tea. If you take less, you can drive for half an hour, but if you take less, you will not die, but there are symptoms such as dyspnea, vomiting and fever. I just thought it was a cold.

"Ha, I thought I would die immediately!" He said happily that in this case, Xia Houchen did not already know that the tenth brother had not been poisoned.

Xiahouchen narrowed his eyes and laughed and said, "I have read too many novels."

"I won't laugh with you, seriously, I want to save the tenth brother! Just now, when I talked to the tenth brother, I heard the sixth sister mention to him what he wanted to give me, which was evidence of Second Master Xue's corruption, but I didn't hear it so simple. What kind of corruption has been killed in the mouth of the sixth sister? Maybe the only way is to steal the treasury! But the position of the second master has nothing to do with the treasury. Even if it is embezzled, it is impossible to embezzle too much money.

Xia Houchen held his heart in his arms, "There is another situation where corruption can be sentenced to death! There was a place that caused the disaster, but the officials above were greedy for the money, which was also a death penalty!"

"Ha, have you ever heard of disasters in recent years?" Xinrong tilted his head and smiled.

"No!" Xia Houchen came back truthfully.

"Tomorrow, you will go to Xuefu's sixth sister's residence. Maybe you can find any clues!" Xia Houchen raised the corners of his lips.

But his heart became suspicious. How could Xia Houchen take her to go to this muddy water today?

But this proposal is also as she wanted, but what excuse should I use to see?

"These days, the old lady and the second wife of the Xue family have been ill for the matter of the tenth brother. Although you have not been married, you have been taken care of by Mrs. Xue in Xue's house and should go back to honor your filial piety." Xia Houchen said in a low voice.

Xinrong smiled and said, "Just because I got married, I should avoid suspicion. You don't care. Your father and mother don't care, but there are many people gossiping outside."

"When was the Marquis of Anguo afraid of those gossip?" Xiahou Chen said proudly.

Thinking about it, Xia Houchen's reputation for several years of broken sleeves. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Xia Houchen's exquisite and beautiful face, and couldn't help laughing.
