Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 170 Curiosity (Update)
As soon as he heard about Meizhuang, Xiao Feng immediately looked like he was gossiping: "Si Tiao, tell me quickly, isn't Meizhuang beautiful? How big is it? How much bigger than this Xujiazhuangzi? Is it twice as big? Yes, yes, Mei Zhuang Are there traps everywhere in the village? Have you seen any traps? "

Si Jiao couldn't laugh or cry: "Mr. Xiao, this servant is just delivering the cart entrusted by Tie Biao to Head Qi Zhuang of Meizhuang on the order of the Prince. It's not like I was invited to visit Meizhuang." Taking a step back, even if I go to visit Meizhuang. , you can’t see the mechanism, right?Is that something that anyone can visit casually?As for how big it is, he doesn't even know how big the Xu family is, right?
Pan Jiaming glared at Xiao Feng, and then said to Si Tiao: "Ignore him, he is so interested, just let him deliver things next time you have the chance. You are coming back so soon, is Meizhuang really close to here?"

Shijo smiled brightly: "How close is it? It's simply too close! Go out from the east side door, cross the bridge, and walk a few dozen steps to get there. It can almost be said to be right next door." Fortunately, he asked Xu The steward of the house went out through the side door.Otherwise, if you go from the gate, you have to take a lot of detours.

"No wonder Xu Ziqi always said that the Xu family lived next door to the richest man in Da Ying. Unfortunately, he didn't benefit from the God of Wealth. Every time he bet with others, he always lost. Well, he still owes me a meal." Pan Jiaming laughed. , "But Meizhuang is really a place where the God of Wealth comes from. They say that the eldest daughter of the Yin family was raised to be innocent and useless. As soon as she lived in Meizhuang, she made some snacks and became the richest man in the world. At least she was not like Those people talk about sitting in vain." He originally didn't like sweets and snacks, but he also ate a lot of novel pastries for snacks. Now that a branch has opened in Beijing, his sister Ling'er likes them even more.

"By the way, sir," Shijo thought of something related, "I saw that mastiff named Bai Xue in Meizhuang." His father liked the little girl who was about the same age as the fourth girl very much. When he returned to Beijing, I talked to the fourth girl several times, and even said that if that little girl was in the capital, I would definitely become a handkerchief with the fourth girl.

Pan Jiaming's eyes lit up, but before he could speak, his words were snatched away by Xiao Feng: "Okay Si Tiao, you are so good at recognizing people, and now you are so good at recognizing dogs?" Haha, but that's right, the whole Luo City, mastiffs There are still a few dogs that can be found, but snow mastiffs are rare. It is estimated that there are only one or two that are great.

Shitiao didn't care at all about Xiao Feng's teasing and said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao, you will know that Bai Xue is easy to recognize because it has a pair of plum blossom-shaped silver bells hanging around its neck."

"Poof", the sip of tea that Xiao Feng had just taken into his mouth spurted out, "Mastiff? Silver bell?" Still in the shape of a plum blossom?Who is so cruel to the mighty mastiff?It's like giving a flower to the mighty general, right?It's almost enough to wear on Xiao Ling'er's fat cat.

Fortunately, Pan Jiaming acted quickly and jumped to avoid the poison of the sip of tea. He glanced at Xiao Feng with disgust: "Isn't it true that Bai Xue is also a girl? Why can't she wear a bell? It's so rare! Uh, I saw the brother and sister last time Both of them felt that their bearing and upbringing were not like those from an ordinary family, and they turned out to be the children of General Yin." It is said that Yin Zhao's eldest son was born with poor health, so no wonder he looked more delicate.

Xiao Feng also sighed. General Yin Zhao of Zhenbei was one of the heroic generals that he and Pan Jiaming admired the most. Yin Zhao's death was really strange, and upon careful consideration, it seemed that there was some big secret hidden there.Unfortunately, not only Yin Zhao and his cronies died, but Princess Qianxin and her two concubines also committed suicide, leaving only a few unsuspecting children, and no one could solve the mystery.

"Zihe," Xiao Feng, who has always been thinking quickly, suddenly said, "Tie Biaotou seems to come to the palace more often recently. Could it be that he intends to become an official?" A person like Tie Muyuan, who has achieved fame and fame, is also in the eyes of the emperor. Yes, it’s not surprising that he suddenly returned to his official career, and it will be smoother than others.

Pan Jiaming shook his head decisively: "Probably not. His Majesty wanted Iron Guard Chief to join the court as an official many years ago. He has mentioned it several times and decided to join early. Now the court is short of generals!" Speaking of which, all civil and military officials In this gathering, there were only a few people who could truly be trusted and capable by the emperor, especially military generals with heavy troops. This was why the emperor was so depressed every time he mentioned Yin Zhao's death.

The emperor once drank too much and couldn't help but cursed: "Isn't it just an investigation? Someone has produced evidence and reported it, or he is his brother. How can I not order a thorough investigation? I have always been loyal and loyal, and I can't even bear this grievance?" I also specifically told him not to use shackles or torture. How did he feel wronged? How dare he defy the order and cry out for injustice in public? Is he challenging me? Humph! And that Qianxin, the couple beat me openly. Face! Damn it! His death was not unfair at all!"

Pan Jiaming has admired General Yin Zhao since he was a child and has heard many stories about General Yin. He also saw Yin Zhao two or three times after he returned to Beijing.To be honest, he really couldn't connect the man who disobeyed the imperial edict out of anger (some said he had a guilty conscience), and even tried to resist and escape, and was shot to death on the spot, with the General Yin Zhaoda in his image. What did he think? It feels weird, as if his father fell off a horse due to alcoholism and died.

He secretly investigated a lot about what happened before and after his father fell from the horse. He also investigated a lot about what happened before and after Yin Zhao was shot to death. For some reason, he always felt that there were some strange connections, or similarities.However, he couldn't tell where there was any connection or similarity. Some things would occasionally flash through his mind like bolts of lightning, so fast that he couldn't catch them. He wanted to connect them but couldn't start.Xiao Feng knew from Pan Jiaming's expression that he was thinking about his father again. Pan Rubing was Xiao Feng's savior and was like a father in his heart.Without Pan Rubing and his wife and Pan Jiaming, it is a question whether he can survive, let alone be named on the gold list.Therefore, he always believed that finding out the truth and avenging Pan Rubing and his wife was not only Pan Jiaming's business, but also his business.Xiao Feng's eyes darkened and he changed the topic: "That's right, maybe, it's not necessarily the case that the emperor asked him to do something temporarily. I heard that the iron escort leader is very popular in the world, and sometimes it is more convenient for him to do things than people in the court. By the way, , Captain Tie asked you to pay more attention to Meizhuang while you are in Luo City. When are you going to pay a visit? If the little sister you mentioned many times happens to be the little girl of the Yin family, wouldn't it be even more important to go and visit?"

Pan Jiaming glanced at him sideways: "You said 'take care of me when necessary', okay? What are you doing to disturb others? Are you interested in their institutions again, or are you coveting Bai Xue?"

Xiao Feng pouted: "Am I so despicable? Even if I really have such thoughts, I won't say it openly, right? Speaking of which, I am curious about Miss Yin. They say she is so naive and has no ideas. How come you changed a person overnight? It’s enough to have the courage to reconcile with that hypocrite Qiu Yiran. Look at what she did after she reconciled with Li. Tsk tsk, let alone an innocent and ignorant woman. Even ordinary men can’t do anything about it. Can you be so decisive and generous?"

Shijo sighed silently on the side, this person is just different from others, otherwise how could he be ranked second?Look, it's not enough to admit that you're secretly despicable without a straight face, and yet you're so blatantly "curious" about other girls?Tsk tsk tsk, is this what the prince meant by "being thick-skinned enough"?This means that only the prince and him are here. If the iron escort leader is here, he might punch Young Master Xiao (of course, Young Master Xiao is still very measured, and such a thing usually won't happen).But, uh, after Mr. Xiao said this, he couldn't help but become curious about Miss Yin. Could it be that she was as good at singing as his eldest son?The prince is pretending to be a dandy, and Miss Yin is pretending to be innocent?

Zhiruo, who was "curious", put down the book in his hand and raised his eyebrows: "Hui'er's uncle and aunt?"

Aunt Qiang nodded: "Well, what I have seen is correct. It is indeed Aunt Lan's eldest brother and sister-in-law who brought a pair of children to join her."

Zhiruo nodded. Aunt Lan was her mother's personal maid. She and her brother Li Changsheng were both descendants of the Qi family. However, after Aunt Lan was promoted to aunt, Princess Qianxin released Aunt Lan's mother and Li Changsheng's family. body contract.Well, when Zhihui was about two or three years old, Li Changsheng took his wife and children to the general's mansion to say goodbye, saying that they were going to take his mother back to the Southwest hometown of the Lu family (the immortal daughter-in-law). Not only did Aunt Lan take most of the private house Money was given to the brother and sister-in-law, and Princess Qianxin also gave them a lot of property.

Princess Qianxin has always been generous in her dealings. If Li Changsheng and his family return to their hometown, as long as they don't spend extravagantly, buy a piece of land to build a house, and then buy some fields or shops, they can start their own business or rent out the land. A small landowner or something is enough to live a prosperous life.So, what's the point of suddenly "defecting" now?If you come to visit a relative or something, that's fine.

Aunt Qiang sighed: "It is said that Mrs. Lu was deceived by her brother-in-law and owed her a large sum of money. She also had to pay off her brother's gambling debt. The money was not enough, so she had to sell the house and the land. Even Changsheng's mother They were all pissed off. They first went to the Yin Mansion in the capital, and then found Meizhuang." Lu was originally a maid in the General's Mansion, and she was also very capable, so Princess Qianxin assigned her to someone who could do her job well. Chang Sheng, who knew it would end up like this now? The family looked extremely embarrassed.

Zhihui, who had just been called over, blinked. She had almost no memory of what Aunt Qiang said about her grandmother and uncles and aunts. It just sounded like she liked that aunt very much. She was loved by her brother and sister-in-law. Cheated?You don't even have enough money to pay off your debts, but you still have to pay off the gambling debts for your brother who cheated them?And she made her mother-in-law so angry, uh, her grandmother?Is it because my aunt feels that even if my uncle has nothing, he can still seek refuge with the Yin family, my aunt and her?However, your aunt is so angry with your grandma, aren’t you afraid of being blamed by your aunt?

　There was another convulsion backstage, and they kept saying that my account and password were wrong, and it took me a long time to get in.There is one more correction. If you are too late, I will make it up around 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. Please read it tomorrow morning.
