The splendid life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 161 Anxiety

Some small countries in the north knew the customs of the Dayuan country, so they took advantage of the New Year's Eve to start looking for troubles. Wars occurred frequently, and the people in the frontier were panicked for a while, and the news quickly spread to the capital.

Mrs. Du said, "With General Yuan around, you don't have to worry, it's just Yu'er, why do you have such an expression?" Although Mrs. Du knew Yao Yu and Yuan Bufan's friendship, there was no need to be so nervous.

After Yao Yu screened all his servants back, he said anxiously, "In addition to delivering supplies, Zhimo also has a secret mission from the emperor, which is to send a letter to General Yuan."

Xie Yuanwu and Mrs. Du were taken aback for a moment, then Xie Yuanwu rushed out, and Mrs. Du slapped her forehead, "You child, why didn't you say it earlier."

"This is a secret mission entrusted by the emperor." Yao Yu said, if it wasn't because there was no news about Zhimo, she would never have said it.

Mrs. Du also understood that she should not talk nonsense, so she calmed down, "Yuan Wu must have gone to find out the news, there is no use for you and me to be anxious, just wait and see."

Sending letters is a secret operation, how can we really find out any news, Yao Yu also knows this.But at this moment, Yao Yu wanted to know who was behind the plan, whether he knew in advance that there would be an additional task of sending secret letters in addition to delivering supplies, and whether he knew that sending secret letters would encounter border wars.If they all know, it means that this person has deep scheming, and more importantly, he wants to put Xie Zhimo to death!
Before the Xie family could hear from Xie Zhimo, they came back on New Year's Eve. Looking at the exhausted Xie Zhimo, Yao Yu's anxious heart finally relaxed.

"I have to tell my family about anything in the future." Xie Yuanwu looked at Xie Zhimo reproachfully. Yao Yu was the only one who told such a big matter. After all, they are also relatives.

Mrs. Du also said, "That's right, we're all a family. If there's anything, we all have to take care of each other."

Xie Zhimo looked at the family members who were worried about him, feeling a little guilty in his heart, but after thinking of some things, he said lightly, "I know you treat me as a family member, but the rest of the Xie family must not be like that." This trip to deliver supplies, Although the journey was steep, it was successfully completed, but the delivery of the secret letter was not so smooth. On the way, he encountered sneak attacks from neighboring countries. Fortunately, he had served in the army and reacted quickly, otherwise he would not have come back alive. .

At this time, Xie Zhimo wanted to find out who made this plan in front of the emperor. If you don't check, you don't know. It's really surprising to check. This person is Xie Yuanwu's second son, Xie Tianhai. I thought they were not brothers. On weekdays, the well water does not violate the river water, but Xie Tianhai did not expect to do such a thing.

"Thinking about it, it's normal for them to do such a thing. After all, their mother was kicked out of the Xie Mansion because of us." Yao Yu said.

"It's definitely not good to be brothers, but I don't want to do anything with them." Xie Zhimo said, "Besides, it was their mother who killed my mother."

Yao Yu paused and said, "But after all, you have snatched the position of his son." Although Xie Zhimo didn't care about this poor position at all, it was just that he cared. He lived in Xie's family since he was a child, and suddenly one day he changed from being the eldest son who was sought after by everyone. Having a second son, this gap is really unacceptable for a while.

Before the two could finish speaking, the imperial decree arrived, telling Xie Zhimo to enter the palace quickly.In fact, Xie Zhimo went to the palace as soon as he returned to Beijing, but the palace was preparing for the New Year's Eve banquet, and Xie Zhimo's request was rejected.

"I'll enter the palace first." Xie Zhimo was still a little curious, the emperor arranged to deliver the secret letter very urgently, so it stands to reason that not only would he not refuse him to enter the palace, but he should be eager to see himself.

Yao Yu put on Xie Zhimo's coat, "Well, we'll wait for you to come back for a reunion dinner."

Xie Zhimo entered the palace in a hurry, but there was no news of Xie Zhimo's return when it was almost the end of the year, "How come Zhimo hasn't come back yet?" Mrs. Du looked outside the door, and it has been more than an hour since she left, so she should say something It's over.

"I'm going to find someone to find out." Xie Yuanwu said.

"Go quickly." Mrs. Du said.

Before Xie Yuanwu went out, Eunuch De came over. Eunuch De was a celebrity in front of the emperor. He had been following the emperor since he ascended the throne. He was considered an old seniority. Xie Yuanwu hurried forward to greet him, "Eunuch De."

Eunuch De saluted, "Our family will not come in. The emperor has an order to leave Mr. Xie Qian in the palace."

Xie Yuanwu immediately handed over a red envelope, "Please also ask Mr. De to give pointers, my little boy..."

Eunuch De took the red envelope without a trace, but said with a smile on his face, "Master Xie, you are welcome. Since we can let our family come to inform, it must not be a bad thing."

Xie Yuanwu breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "It's cold today, Eunuch De, drink some water before leaving?"

"No need, the emperor is still waiting for our family to go back and report." Eunuch De raised his foot and prepared to leave after finishing speaking.

Xie Yuanwu hurriedly sent Eunuch De out.

Yao Yu frowned, what was Xie Zhimo doing in the palace for the New Year's Eve.

Seeing Yao Yu's anxious expression, Xie Nuo said, "Don't worry, I'm going to enter the palace tomorrow, and I'll know then."

This New Year's Eve is obviously another sleepless night.

In the early morning of the second day, Xie Nuo put on his court clothes and went into the palace. However, this time, Xie Nuo was even more anxious because Xie Nuo didn't come back after entering the palace. less than.

"What's going on here?" Mrs. Du couldn't sit still any longer.

Xie Yuanwu found his second son, "Tell me, what are you going to do?"

Xie Tianhai snorted coldly, "It seems that even if we have a father-son relationship of more than 30 years, we can't compare with Xie Zhimo who has only been in the door for a few years."

Xie Yuanwu was anxious, secretly thinking that this son was not sensible, Xie Tianhai continued, "Although I conspired to send Xie Zhimo to deliver the supplies, I didn't know that there would be other tasks. As for why they couldn't come back from the palace, I don't even know." .”

Xie Yuanwu knew how much Xie Tianhai weighed. Seeing that Xie Tianhai looked the same, Xie Yuanwu believed it.The palace seemed to be closed, and there was no news at all.In the early morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Xie Yuanwu was about to go out with dark eyes, but saw another person coming from the palace.

Yao Yu also didn't sleep all night, seeing the people coming from the palace, his heart skipped a beat, maybe something happened again.

The imperial decree came again, but this time the imperial decree was to appoint Xie Tianhai to a remote area. It seemed to be a promotion, but it was actually a promotion. Everyone in the Xie family was very puzzled, what is the emperor going to do?
At the same time, rumors abounded in the capital.

"I said this is the end of the Xie Mansion."

"Isn't it? First the eldest son entered the palace but did not come out, and then the number one scholar."

"Yes, no, Xie Tianhai has been relegated to a remote area."

"Next, I don't know if it's Xie Tianliang or Lord Shangshu."

"Who made them live so smoothly in the past few years? If you want me to say, Xie Zhimo and Xie Nuo have been promoted like this, it's hard to say that this Dayuan is their Xie Mansion's world."

"That's right, it seems that the emperor is the first to eliminate hidden dangers."

Yao Yu's grid shop is now rented by many people, so it is very easy to collect this information.

Xie Yuan violently tore off a bunch of beards, "I, Xie Manor, have always been a loyal and good generation, how can I allow others to talk nonsense like this."

Yao Yu felt helpless. There are many malicious people in this world. They are good at guessing and seriously hurting others with vicious words.When you meet such a person, you can only laugh it off.

Yao Chang and Liu Xian soon heard these messages, they couldn't sit still, and followed Mr. Ji to Xie's mansion.

After hearing that Xie Yuanwu entered the palace and found nothing, Mr. Ji sighed, "Although I have not been in the court for a long time, I still have a little face in front of the current emperor. I will go into the palace to have a look."

Yao Chang and Liu Xian hurriedly said, "If you need money, we can help."

Mr. Ji shook his head, if it was as simple as just needing money, Xie Zhimo and Yao Yu would be enough, but the affairs in the palace could not be solved with money, in fact, Yao Chang also knew this The reason is that they are unable to help, and they are anxious, and money is the only thing the two of them can come up with.

Yao Yu knew that his elder brother and sister-in-law were anxious, so he gave the two of them a comforting look, and then said to Mr. Ji, "Then thank you, Mr. Ji first." Yao Yu had to be grateful that Nuoer entered the palace again.

It's just that Mr. Ji didn't see Xie Zhimo and Xie Zhimo when he entered the palace this time, but he didn't get anything, "The emperor said that Nuoer and Zhimo should be kept as guests in the palace, a few days will be enough."

"Is there any guest who insists on staying here for the New Year?" Liu Xian muttered dissatisfiedly.

Although Xie Yuanwu knew that Liu Xian's words were disrespectful, but he was also in the same mood at the moment. Even Mrs. Du nodded slightly, obviously very dissatisfied with the emperor's move.

"What's the tone of the emperor's words?" Yao Yu asked, she didn't know why the emperor did this, the only thing she could guess was the tone of his words at that time, so she knew whether he blamed Xie Zhimo and Xie Nuo.

"There is no unhappiness, and there is no color of blame." Mr. Ji said affirmatively.

Yao Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "In other words, Nuoer and Zhimoding did not offend the emperor."

"Indeed." Xie Yuanwu said, yesterday he went to the palace to meet the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit praised Xie Zhimo a lot, but kept silent about Xie Nuo.

"It seems that we can only wait for the news." Yao Yu said, feeling a little anxious, it would be great if she could invent a mobile phone, now she only needs to send a text message with Xie Zhimo to know what is going on in the palace.

However, until the third day of the Lunar New Year, there was still no news from the palace.
