Chapter 115: A Moth (4)
The charcoal fire in the study has been burning, and it will not go out just because Yuxi is not there. Therefore, as soon as I walked into the study, a burst of enthusiasm came over my face.
Yuxi took off her big silver woolen clothes and sat on the chair beside her, while she sat on the stool behind the desk.
Seeing Cai Die approaching, Zi Su smiled at her and went out.
Caidie waited for Zisu to leave, went over to close the door, turned around and came over to Yuxi and said, "Girl, even the guard told me today that Miss Duan Xinrong was rescued."
Yu Xi stood up awkwardly, her words trembling, and she asked, "What did you say? Xin Rong was rescued by someone? Who rescued him?"
Cai Die shook her head and said, "Even the patrol didn't know who rescued Miss Duan, but all the servants who escorted her were killed. Even the patrol said it might be very complicated. Be careful, these people are likely to be against the girl."
Yuxi put her right hand on the white paper and pressed it down tightly. Unexpectedly, Xin Rong was rescued by someone, that is to say, her guess was true. Otherwise, no one would risk their lives to save Xin Rong. After a long time, Yu Xi asked: "What else did the patrolman say?"
Cai Die shook her head and said: "The imperial court has already sent people to hunt down Miss Duan, there is nothing else." Her girl was kind for a while, but she didn't expect that it would lead to disaster.
Yuxi lowered her eyes, she didn't regret spending money to manage the yamen. It's just this matter that should be handled properly. Caidie doesn't understand, but Yuxi understands what Lian Xun said. If someone wants to investigate this matter, then patrolling company will definitely be found out, after all, he was the one who took care of it that day. But when the time comes, as long as she admits that she asked Lian Patrol to come forward, Lian Patrol will be fine.
Yuxi looked outside, it wasn't too late in the sky, after thinking about it for a while, she still had to go to Han Jianming for help: "Is elder brother in the mansion?"
Zisu nodded and said, "My son will be back when the sun sets."
Yuxi nodded, and then went to the front yard to look for Han Jianming. Although Han Jianming lives in the front yard, Yuxi's yard is not far from Han Jianming's.
Han Jianming was discussing matters with Mr. Zhao in the study, and he was a little surprised when he heard Yu Xi coming over: "What's the matter?" He said he couldn't come to his study not long ago, so he must have something to do this time.
Yuxi told about Duan Xinrong: "Brother, do you know about this?"
Han Jianming nodded: "I knew it half a month ago." His news was much better than Lian Shan's, but he didn't think it was necessary to tell Yu Xi about it.
Yu Xi looked at Han Jianming with some depression, it was too much to keep such a big matter from her. Well, she has no position to accuse Han Jianming: "Brother, I paid for a company patrol that day, and it was my husband who used to be in charge of my mother to help with the management. Now that the yamen has been killed, do you think I will be implicated?" With Lian Patrol?"
Han Jianming stood up and crossed his hands behind his back: "Are you scared?"
Yuxi shook her head and said: "I'm not afraid. I just don't want to be involved in the patrol because of me. I just paid for it to help me manage it, and I didn't do any other bad things. I heard that when this kind of thing happened to the yamen, they couldn't find the culprit. Just find a scapegoat. I'm afraid they'll make me and the Patrolman a scapegoat."
Han Jianming smiled: "Let you be the scapegoat? Why don't you just say that those people want to use the Duke's mansion as a scapegoat?" A huge strength. Yuxi is not qualified to be a scapegoat.
Yuxi was a little anxious: "Will the Duke's Mansion be implicated?"
Han Jianming looked at Yuxi really anxiously, shook his head and said: "No, I have already taken care of it, this matter will not implicate you, nor will it implicate the patrol company. But this matter is very complicated, Duan Yu More than a month before Shi was killed,
A child in their house died of illness. The Yamen dug the grave after Duan Xinrong escaped, but there was no body in the grave. This child probably cheated his death and is now hidden. "
Yuxi knew Duan Xinrong very well, so she naturally knew the news about the Duan family: "That child is the youngest son of the second master of the Duan family. He got a fever at the end of July and passed away at the beginning of August. Xin Rong was still very sad at that time. Maybe, Duan Yu Shi Shi knew that the Duan family would suffer, so he made preparations in advance to hide the child and leave a little blood for his family?" Others are not easy to fake death, but the child is too young and in poor health, and many die young, so the child of the Duan family Sickness and premature death are not conspicuous.
Han Jianming looked at Yuxi and said, "If your guess is true, there is nothing wrong with Duan Yushi doing this." Now that the Ninth Prince has the support of the Song family and Prime Minister Yu, as long as there is a little wind, he wants to kill Duan Yushi easy.
Yuxi's mood is very complicated and uncomfortable. Is it wrong to say Duan Yushi? He is for righteousness, for the world and the people. Can you say that Duan Yushi did the right thing? Because of her actions, the Duan family was ruined, and Xin Rong was also missing.
Han Jianming didn't know about Yuxi's entanglement, he said: "Actually, when you paid for Lianshan to manage it, you have already fallen into the eyes of those who care about you. It is also because you are sure that you are not involved with the Duan family, so you are safe and secure these days Yes, or else..." I didn't continue to say the following words, I believe Yuxi can understand.
Yu Xi shuddered, who else could this caring person have besides the Ninth Prince: "Brother, I will not inquire about the Duan family's affairs anymore. I will be cautious in my actions in the future."
After talking about Duan Xinrong, Han Jianming and Yu Xi talked about Qiu Lilong: "What are you doing to find out Qiu Lilong recently? Are you going to use him to deal with the Wu family?" Yuxi has nothing to do with Qiu Lilong. interests, so Han Jianming felt that Yu Xi wanted to use Qiu Lilong to deal with the Wu family.
Yuxi was not surprised that Han Jianming knew what she was doing: "I didn't plan to deal with the Wu family. I was just worried that this person would bring trouble to the Duke's Mansion."
Han Jianming said with a half-smile: "Oh? Is this the reason?" He couldn't believe Yu Xi's words. It's true that Yuxi has feelings for the first room, but she has no feelings for the third room. Well, it's not entirely true, Yuxi and Yuchen have a good relationship.
Yuxi didn't blush, and said calmly: "Yes. I heard that this person has gotten very close to Wang Dashao recently. Wang Dashao is an imperial merchant, and his business is all over the country. How could this person look at Qiu? Lilong. I am afraid that Qiu Lilong will be tricked by him and affect the Duke's mansion."
Han Jianming said with a smile: "Don't worry, Young Master Wang will not harm the Duke's Mansion."
Yuxi looked puzzled: "Why?"
Han Jianming laughed: "It's very simple, the Wang family is under the Ninth Prince's family." The Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince have a deep brotherhood, and with the Tenth Prince around, Young Master Wang dare not do anything that would harm the Duke's government.
Yu Xi suddenly understood: "So, the eldest son of the Wang family is so enthusiastic about Qiu Lilong because he was ordered by the Tenth Prince?" After finishing speaking, Yu Xi muttered: "Killing a chicken with a butcher's knife, just one autumn Lilong has given Qiu Lilong too much face by working for the Wang family."
Han Jianming couldn't help laughing: "This matter is not as simple as you want to get revenge. But I heard that Qiu Lilong wants to give his sister to Young Master Wang as a child." There are too many involved in this. I can't tell for a while. In addition, this matter has nothing to do with the Duke's Mansion, and Han Jianming didn't want to spend this time explaining it to Yuxi.
Yuxi suddenly realized, she asked why Qiu Yanfu let Yan Yu contact Ah Zhao frequently these days, it turned out to be like this: "Brother, Qiu Yanfu lives in our mansion, if she becomes a child, when the time comes What about my third sister and me?"
Han Jianming smiled and said: "Well, if you want to get involved, you will only get involved with Yurong, not you and Yuchen. The tenth prince really cares about Yuchen, and she won't damage her reputation." We don't know how many detours our Duke's Mansion has taken. If she becomes a junior, it would be fine to just announce the severance of ties. There is no need to spend energy to stop it. But Yurong is Qiu Yanfu's cousin, and Qiu Yanfu will definitely be greatly affected if she becomes a child.
Yuxi said enviously: "Hey, I really envy Third Sister! There is such a person protecting her." Yuchen is the one who is favored by heaven. Good background, good talent, outstanding appearance, everyone dotes on her, and now she has the admiration of the tenth prince, except for the fact that her mother died young, she is so happy, so happy that people are jealous.
Han Jianming didn't see envy and jealousy in Yuxi's eyes: "You will be thirteen in the next year, what are you going to find?"
Yuxi said: "The family tradition is good, mother-in-law is easy to get along with, and I have to work hard to make progress, and not be greedy for sex." After a pause, Yuxi added: "If I can be like the third sister, the other party can like me That couldn't be better."
Han Jianming couldn't help coughing when he heard the last sentence, the girl didn't hold back at all, she just acted carelessly, and ordinary people couldn't bear it: "It's getting late in the sky, you should go back too." Seeing Yuxi looking at He didn't move, and said helplessly, "Don't worry, I will help you look."
Yu Xi didn't look shy at all, and said crisply: "Thank you, big brother. Big brother, if there is any news about Xin Rong, you must tell me!"
Han Jianming nodded.
When we got back, it was already dark. Han Jianming asked the two maids in the study to carry a lantern for Yuxi and send her back to the backyard.
As soon as she entered Tao Ranju, Zisu handed the gilded silver and hundred-flower cloisonné enamel hand stove to Yuxi: "Miss, warm your hands!"
Going out in this cold weather, the coldest thing is the face and hands. Even if it is hidden in a thick pocket, it is cold: "Next time you go out, take a hand warmer out." Hand warmers are not bad, but gloves are good. But thinking of the end of Heshou County Lord, Yuxi suppressed this thought.
After Yuxi walked into the study, Zisu said: "Girl, I have already found out, the big niǎinǎi is indeed behind the scenes."
Yuxi took advantage of the housekeeper to gather a lot of people. Therefore, she is not very well informed about the news from the outside, but as long as the news from the inner court is not secret, she will soon know: "What's going on with Qiu Yanfu?"
Zi Su said: "If they want to plot against Second Master, it will be within a few days."
Yu Xi nodded and said, "I see." After saying this, she took down the thick "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" from the shelf and prepared to read it.
