Chapter 219 Sheep fat fish, may have an inside story

is the beginning of Shen, but the sky has faded, the low-wet clouds are thick and heavy, and a gust of north wind is tight, squeezing out the rain in the clouds and falling down.

The carriage of the Duke of Wei's mansion rolled on the Qingque Street, and the light became more and more dim in the heavy brocade curtain.

Qiu Yue and Xia Ke sat left and right, looking curiously at the little master, sometimes slightly frying, sometimes raising his eyebrows - what's wrong? Isn't it that Du Yuniang specially held a banquet this time? According to the presence of the son of the Prince of Chu, Wu Niang should not feel bored, but the expression at this time, why is it so... sad?

It turned out that they still didn't know that the scenery came to Baishadu today, mainly to test Mother Song.

At this time, there was no worry about "the business".

It's just because of Yu Yu's strange behavior.

Is it because of "retaliating" your "appreciation" for Yulang? No, no, Brother Yuan is not such a "boring small device" person. Yijing raised his fingers, gently pushed his eyebrows, and thought about the beginning and end of the matter again--

All the strangeness is because when Du Yuniang untied the cloak on her shoulder, she didn't care. The jade pendant left behind was carved with sheep fat with a good water color, but the sculptor was exquisite, a pair of fish pendant.

I just glanced at the scenery and didn't pay attention to it.

Yu Yu stretched out his hand to come, took a closer look, and asked Du Yuniang where he got it.

Du Yuniang herself didn't pay much attention to it and answered casually - a gift from the guest.

Yu Yu's unusual attention made Yijing pay attention to the fish pendant, which seemed to have small handwriting engraved on one side.

"See that there is still word recognition on the jadepei pei, or it is passed on by others." Yu Yu seemed to have some deep meaning at that time, and his eyes looking at Du Yuniang were also quite questioning.

Yijing was about to take a closer look, but he saw that Yu Yu had handed the fish pendant back to Du Yuniang: "If you want to come here, you value the girl very much."

When Yijing noticed that Yu Yu said this, there was a kind of caution between his eyebrows. It seemed that he was a little dissatisfied... But in one breath, he was as plain as usual.

This matter is very strange!

The texture of the jade pendant is not good, and the pattern of Pisces is common in the market. Even if it is more exquisite, it is not rare. Can it be recognized by those words alone? Even if it is a family legend, it should have nothing to do with Yu Yu. Why does he care so much? Yijing was full of doubts, but he heard Du Yuniang say with a smile, "The slave family doesn't know the name of the Langjun, and I have never seen it before. That is, the Qianlao Pavilion, which only came during the New Year Festival, praises the Nu family for singing well, the touching piano sound, and it is appreciated."

"Other people's hearts are cherished by girls." Yu Yu said again.

At this point, the topic will no longer continue, but Yijing always feels that he seems to be a little solemn. After a banquet, he said little and frowned slightly from time to time, but the dissatisfaction was not aimed at Du Yuniang, which was quite strange.

I finally found an opportunity to ask. The son of the world was obviously perfunctory - an unaffable thing, but the cold weather affected his mood.

A long time ago, I was still in the mood to "flling out" with her.

When the beautiful scenery thought about this, his thoughts split again. His cheeks burned, and he pushed his eyebrows down and slid down to cover his eyes.

In the eyes of Qiu Yue and Xia Ke, they felt more and more surprised. The two maids exchanged their eyes and did not wait to ask, but the car had stopped. They saw their little masters. Those suspicious, depressed and shy emotions were all restrained, as usual "into- Approachable", and when chatting with the doorman, they were like "wonderful words" Pearl, the reward money was also given very happily. He got on the soft sedan and returned to Lvqingyuan. After changing his clothes, he went straight to Yuanying Hall.

"Did Wu Niang have a conflict with the son of the world today?" Qiu Yue didn't know why, so she pulled Xia Ke to gossip.

"Not like that." Xia Ke spoke cautiously, but smiled and said no words.

This seems to be a little like the beginning of love. Wu Niang is really a big girl.

Yijing "explained" today's whereabouts in front of her grandmother as usual - originally, she just wanted to go to the teahouse to ask about the business, but later she heard that Baishadu had arrived at a batch of new tea. For a moment, she was curious and went to see the rare tea. After a delay for a while, she returned home a little late.

The eldest princess did not ask carefully even though her granddaughter was "free". She only said that it was cloudy and rainy these days, and it was not appropriate to go out. After suffering the cold carefully, she would be more honest these two days. Yijing responded one by one. Coincidentally, Qi Niang and Ba Niang came over and proposed to play cards for a while. The three juniors "communicated in series" and won a lot of "gambling money" from their grandmothers. They were all proud and stayed in Yuanying Hall for dinner before returning to the yard.

I didn't wait for Su Zhi's reply this day.

Two more days later, Xia Ke reported that the boss invited Yijing to go to the horse farm.

Su Zhixian talked about Mother Song's certificate. He probably touched the person in two days. Obviously, he felt that the certificate was credible: "The woman's surname is Qi, and she was originally a maid trusted by Empress Gaozu. When she reached her age, she was strict and let her go out of the palace and married a palace guard as her wife. She still remembers. At that time, because she was familiar with Mother Song in the palace, she promised to settle Wansi in a place by hearing that it was her distant relative. She did not know that Wansi was the slave maidservant of the state government, and the stable woman she was found by the Qi family. When Wansi gave birth to a child, she was also present. Later, Wansi handed over the child to the Song family, and she also saw it with her own eyes. ."

Su Zhi sighed: "It seems that Song Yi should be the bloodline of the old prince, but Song has done so many evil things..."

"I also think this person's testimony is credible." Yijing nodded slightly: "It seems that Mother Song has been prepared to deliberately find such a credible person. What is to prevent it from being questioned in the future."

On that day, Mother Song was not panicked and confident that Yulang was pretending to be the son of Wansi. It can be seen that she was very sure that Yulang was a "counterfeit" identity.

"But A Weng, why is Mother Song sure that you are testing her? Normally, the 'son of Wansi' appeared inexplicably. Shouldn't the first person she suspect is Wansi? She is so sure that she knew that Wansi was no longer alive. There is no doubt about the scenery.

Su Zhi also nod frequently: "On that day, when she heard that she was the son of Wansi, her attitude was extremely sarcastic. She didn't even ask where Wansi was. The old slave had this kind of suspicion."

"Also, why did Wansi coax Mother Song and say that her grandfather had given her the jade pendant?"

Su Zhi didn't have much about this doubt.

"In this test, we know that Wansi has been poisoned by Mother Song, and another witness has appeared, or we can use the Qi family to find out whether there are any other strange things in it, such as the stable woman..." Yu Jing thought that Wansi should be prepared for Mother Song, will she rest assured that she will really take the child. Entrust it to her? What happened in those years, and how did Mother Song kill Wansi? Without finding out these, Song Spoke's identity could not be confirmed after all.

"The old slave also thought of this and asked where Qi's stable mother-in-law was now. Qi also provided an address. Only the old slave found it, but the woman said that the stable woman originally rented her house and had moved away for almost 20 years. She didn't know where she was. She only remembered that her husband's surname was Zhang, so She is called Zhang's sister-in-law, but the woman is greedy for money. She asked the old slave for ten taels of silver before she was willing to say another strange thing.

Immediately concerned about the scenery.

"It is said that there was a descendant in the old year, copying the Nanzhe dialect, and also looking for her to find out where Mrs. Zhang is going. Every few months, I will visit her once to ask if there is any new news."

Because the owner did not know the name of the later life, let alone the whereabouts came from, and could not provide any useful information, Su Zhi and Yijing did not know whether it was related to Song Shi's life for a while.

It is difficult to make more progress for a while, but the days are still as plain as water, and March in a blink of an eye.

The rainy winter of the fifth year of Yuanqing has lasted too long. The cold rain withered and red, but the black branches have not yet bloomed new green. The whole Jinyangjing is still shrouded in the gray skylight. Although the city is still noisy, it still reveals haze and cold. Even the clear waves in the Liuguang River flow slowly and heavily. At the beginning of the festival, it was difficult for the girls to find fragrant grass and spring flowers to arrange their temples, so they had no choice but to take off the green and yellow wicker and braid them on their hair to respond to the scene.

The Fanglin banquet originally held in March had to be postponed due to the late departure of peaches and plums and the late return of Chunyan, and the spring banquet in the noble house was temporarily out of news.

The Duke of Wei is still a series of visitors, all because the two imperial historians of the Metropolitan Procatories were ordered to go to Southern Zhejiang. The "mighty" move - more than 30 officials attended by the third prince were confiscated, the officials were stripped, and dozens of officials were found to be related to the case of corruption and bribery. During the court, the officials impeachment One after another, we should ask the emperor to make it clear that the officials involved in the case will be killed in several places!

Su Yiqi, Duke of Wei, said that although many of the officials involved in the case are guilty of corruption and bribery, some of the crimes are still not enough to die, and there are many innocent people who have never been corrupted for bribery. Please make it clear.

Although Qin Xiang's party feathers were unwilling, they did not dare to point the finger at the Duke of Wei for a moment, and the emperor did not want to kill, so he ordered the minister of the Ministry of Officials to participate in the auxiliary investigation, and the Dali Temple reviewed the crime.

However, Jin Xiang "does not care", and the Ministry of Officials and the head of Dali Temple have to frequently go to the Duke of Wei, hoping that Su Yi can reveal one or two secrets - which of these should be taken seriously, which should be let go, and what is the emperor's intention?

Su Yi only has one sentence - you should judge your guilt impartially.

It can be seen that in the eyes of some noble courtiers, Su Yi's special status has been obvious, and he is affectionate and righteous. As usual, he has not been seen to attract nobles, let alone accept the "benefits" of Southern Zhejiang officials, but in this storm, he dares to uphold justice, is relative to Qin, and saves the honor is more valuable than water and fire.

Therefore, even the nobles who have nothing to do with southern Zhejiang gradually turned their eyes to the Duke of Wei and began to move frequently, and the momentum of gold has gradually disintegrated.

Jin Xiang naturally has an understanding, but he thinks that the Duke of Wei is a noble background. He doesn't want to see the situation led by Qin and the unique family. He can take this opportunity to fight for the help of the Duke of Wei.

The most direct and simple sign is marriage.

Calling several grandchildren to the front, Jin Xiang was very frustrated. The excellent ones are all married, and the unmarried ones are only some concubines. Although there are two concubines in the Duke's mansion, their status is also higher than their own, so they look at their granddaughter-

Six Niang still has no marriage...

Although his reputation is a little bad, in the final analysis, it is also some gossip, and it is also caused by Su Wei, the son of the son of Wei.

Immediately called the eldest daughter-in-law and asked her to visit the Duke's wife.

On the fifth day of March, the third prince finally returned to Beijing. In the Nanhua Gate of Jinyang City, the people greeted each other - there were those hot-blooded civilians who were single-heartedly denounced the southern Zhejiang officials, but more beautiful girls who wanted to see the demeanor of the Third Highness, and even the aristocratic daughter rented a box of a teahouse restaurant along the road, which was shone in the half-open and half-closed carved window. Looking forward to the proud son of the emperor who is dressed in fresh clothes and angry horses, and can "look at each other" with them.
