Chapter 226
Time goes forward, the first month has passed in a flash, and February is ushered in when the grass grows and the warblers fly.

The disaster in the nine counties of Gyeonggi Province has passed, and after the victims of the disaster in the city gates have returned to their hometowns one after another, the depressed and sad Jiankang City has regained its former vitality.When the wind blows in early spring, the activities among the aristocratic and famous families gradually become active, followed by elegant gatherings, spring banquets, and spring outings.

Although in the eyes of the aristocratic family, the Fu family is still a small family, but everyone knows that the reactivation of Fu Yiyan by Emperor Mu Andi is only the beginning of the rise of the Fu family.After Fu Yiyan and Fuxuan retire from the disaster relief work and return to Jiankang City, I am afraid that the Fu family, who has experienced ups and downs, will be unstoppable and have boundless prospects.

Everyone in the world is very realistic. Seeing the rise of the Fu family, those not-so-distinguished families who want to make friends with the Fu family seem to have sprung up one after another in front of the Fu family, like bamboo shoots after a rain overnight.

As for Fuxuan, the only young girl in the Fu family, because it was widely rumored last year that Liulang of the Xie family had resigned from her marriage, now she has become the favorite of these family lords when they discuss marriage, and the invitations she received There are countless stickers.

The folk customs in Daliang are open, and when gentlemen pursue girls, Su Ai writes poems full of friendship, and puts them on the incense paper, called "love notes", and presents them to the girls.

In the Qingxi Garden of Fujia, Linglong walked briskly, holding a stack of love notes and entered from the outside, "Girl, the concierge brought these again, look at them, you like them."

Fu Xuan took it and read it silently——

"Speaking of lovesickness under the acacia tree, miss Qing Nian Qingqing doesn't know."

"Prepare for the salary, the three stars are in the sky. Tonight and when will you see this beloved?"

"When you see a beautiful woman, you will never forget it; if you don't see it for a day, you will miss it like crazy."

Although they all used the words of the ancients, judging from the carefully carved patterns on the love paper and the exquisite shapes cut out, it can be seen that the few people who donated the poems also put some thought into it.

For no reason, Fuxuan thought of that one, and compared the two sides, she didn't see that Fenghua No.1 wrote any poems for her.

However, recently, the entire Jiankang City has been spreading rumors about those two gentlemen and ladies, gifted scholars and beauties, saying that she is discussing marriage, and the Wang and Xie families are also discussing marriage.

It was as if they hadn't seen Xie Zhan showing his love to her during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

That's right, it's just love and talk, together we get together, indifferent we disperse, several months have passed, for others, it is impossible for Xie Liulang to wake up from his short-term obsession, and parted ways with her.

Besides, everyone in the world loves to see what they want to see and listen to what they want to hear. She only found out a few days ago that there is a bet on when Wang Xie and Xie will get married in Changle Square.

Also, she inquired about the so-called "gifts" from her mother, and found out that they were originally used to go to the disaster area, and they were not betrothal gifts. Her mother also boasted that although Xie Liulang could not be a son-in-law to support the family, he was quite a good person. Temperament, cold face and warm heart, even his father is full of praise.

Thinking of this, for a while, Fuxuan, who was in a state of confusion, finally lost the mood to read poetry, not knowing whether she should be disappointed or grateful that she hadn't been hired.

She threw away those love notes with a "snap", and said to Linglong: "From now on, don't bring these to your eyes, just throw them away."

Linglong quickly put away her things, seeing that she didn't seem to be interested in discussing marriage, she thought about it again: "Then the spring banquet organized by Empress Yu, is the lady still going?"

The purpose of the spring banquet was to choose concubines for the crown prince. She is now like Xie Zhan. It is acceptable to marry an ordinary gentleman, but it is absolutely impossible to marry a royal family.

Fu Xuan said a little wearily: "I don't want to go."

"I heard from Princess Jiayang that Bailan's envoys are coming this time, so why don't you take the opportunity to visit?" Linglong asked.

Fu Xuan's eyes lit up, "Where are the horses born? Then we can see if those people are as beautiful as horses!"

Xie Mansion, Tingfeng Garden, Study Room.

The night breeze was cool, and the bamboo leaves rustled. Mr. Lang, who was slightly cared for by the helper girl, sat at the desk, flipped through the official documents, and sneezed unexpectedly.

Seeing this, Shi Qing frowned, and persuaded: "My lord, you should rest for a few days."

Since the end of the Spring Festival break, cases from all over the country have poured into Dali Temple as the ice and snow melted and the roads have been cleared. The cases on everyone's desk are piled up half a foot high. He returned home with official documents.

Xie Zhan said impatiently, "Let's get down to business."

As soon as his young master showed such an expression, Shi Qing didn't dare to waste any more time, and immediately turned serious, and reported the several messages he had received one by one.

"At the end of Jingzhao County where the son asked to check in Yuanchen, there was a Sihu from 'Wang Zhi' who joined the army. He bought a big house in Wannian County at the end of last year, worth more than [-] yuan."

Xie Zhan raised his eyebrows, "surnamed Wang?"

Shi Qingdao: "Although the surname is Wang, it is not the serious Wang family, but the descendants of the godsons adopted by the older generations. Another passerby's record here is that since August last year, the seven girls of Wang have seen I've seen this Wang Zhi twice, but I only heard him call him 'Second Uncle', and I can't find out why, the first time they broke up because of disagreement, but the second time, Miss Wang's face was happy."

Once the two pieces of information are gathered, a little speculation can guess the relationship.

How can a Sihu join the army to buy a big house? Where does the money come from?It came from Wang Zhiyi who met twice.

Presumably, Wang Zhiyi pretended to be Fuxuan and went to Jingzhao County to pay the tax assessment, and met this relative who was not a relative. Once Fu Yiyan's "corruption" happened, Wang Zhi just threatened her with it.

The first time the two broke up because of disagreement, it should be because the price did not agree.The second time they met, it was the strange thing that Wang Ai knew about the change of owner of Heyuan that Fuxuan said.Wang Zhi joined the army as a householder, and the fields, livestock, population traffic, and tax-free certificates were all within the scope of his duties. He used this news to "ask for credit" from Wang Zhiyi, got money, and finally bought the house.

This means that Fu Yiyan was really framed by the Wang family.

Xie Zhan snorted lightly, with a sarcasm on his face.

The seventh girl of the Wang family is really a good trick.

First, he participated in the frame-up of a third-rank minister, and later joined forces with his mother and eldest sister to make things happen with him, but he didn't know that more actions lead to more mistakes. It was also because of that incident that she wore a mask, so he suspected that she was pretending to be Fuxuan. Fu Yiyan had a breakthrough in this case.

Fu Yiyan has returned to court, it doesn't really matter whether his case is settled or not, after all, it has already been settled on Emperor Mu Andi's side.

Xie Zhan continued to investigate the case for three reasons.

First, out of a thorough investigation of the case, he thought that fairness and justice must not be lost in this world.Secondly, he had promised Fuxuan that anyone who framed Fu's family would be brought to justice.Three things, the case has not come to light, and Fu Yiyan has been stigmatized for a day. He also wants to settle the case and "ask for credit" in front of that girl, so that he can really go to Fufu to recruit her.

Thinking of this, Xie Zhan rubbed his eyebrows.

In recent days, there have been two pieces of news about Fu Xuan in Jiankang City.

One is that the helper girl makes friends with a certain gentleman in private.It is true that those who say "make friends in private" are showing some kindness, and the rough words of the market are straightforward and vulgar, but they are "doing it".Because of this rumor, in order to avoid suspicion, that girl disappeared from her eyes for several days, and stayed in the mansion all day long.

If it was said that this piece of news gave him a punch, the second one was a few stabs in his heart.

Because, it was rumored that the Fu girl was discussing marriage.

Could he not have imagined that it was impossible for Fuxuan to tell Fu's family about the two of them. It must be at the place of the Fu's elders. Up to now, the news about the two of them still stops at "he despises her and wants to withdraw from the marriage". It is also possible to look at your husband.

Thinking of this, Xie Zhan really felt the pain, and really felt the feeling of knocking out a tooth and swallowing it in his stomach.

If I had known this earlier, what kind of relative did you retire back then?

Shi Qing watched his young master's eyebrows frowned, and it became tighter and tighter. The second thing in his mouth, he didn't know whether to bring it up again.

Seeing him like this, Xie Zhan completely lost his patience, and casually threw the official document over, "Hesitating, get out if you don't say anything!"

For the first time, Shi Qing swallowed his saliva and said in a breath: "I went to Fufu today and asked you about the meeting when you were resting. Madam Zhun's slave will return to me. I'm going to the palace to attend the Spring Banquet."

 Xie Zhan: Has the prime minister seen where the prince is?Really capable.

  There will be a bloody plot in the spring banquet, let’s guess
