The charcoal fire in the study has been burning, and it will not be extinguished just because Yuxi is away. So, as soon as I walked into the study, a burst of enthusiasm came.

Yuxi took off her big silver-white sweater and put it on the chair next to her, and sat down on the stool behind her desk.

Shisu saw Caidie coming, smiled at her, and went out.

After Caidie waited for Zisu to leave, she walked over and closed the door, turned around and walked over to Yuxi and said, "Girl, even the patrol told me today that Duan Xinrong and Miss Duan were rescued. ”

Yu Xi stood up suddenly, trembling a little between his words, and asked, "What did you say? Xinrong was rescued by someone? ”

Caidie shook her head and said, "Even the patrol doesn't know who rescued Miss Duan, but the few yacha escorted were all killed. Even the patrol said that this matter is very complicated, and the girl has to be careful, these people are likely to be unfavorable to the girl. ”

Yuxi's right hand rested on the white paper and pressed it tightly. Unexpectedly, Xin Rong was rescued, that is, her guess was true. Otherwise, no one would risk their lives to save Xinrong. After a long time, Yu Xicai asked, "What else did the patrol say?"

Caidie shook her head and said, "The imperial court has already sent someone to hunt down Miss Duan, and there is nothing else." Her girl was kind-hearted, but she didn't expect it to cause disaster.

Yuxi lowered her eyes, she didn't regret spending money on the yacha at that time. It's just that this matter should be handled properly. Caidie didn't understand, but Yuxi understood the meaning of Lian Patrol's words. If someone wants to investigate this matter, he will definitely find out the head of the patrol guard, after all, he came forward to investigate 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 was not too late, and after thinking about it for a while, he still had to go to Han Jianming for help: "Is the eldest brother in the mansion?"

Shisu nodded and said, "The prince will come back at sunset." ”

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 yard.

Han Jianming was discussing with Mr. Zhao in the study, and was a little surprised when he heard Yuxi coming: "What's the matter?" Not long ago, he said that he couldn't come to his study, and there must be something wrong with coming this time.

Yuxi told Duan Xinrong about it: "Big brother, do you know about this?"

Han Jianming nodded: "I knew it half a month ago." "He is much better informed than Lianshan, but he feels that there is no need to tell Sù Yuxi about this matter.

Yuxi looked at Han Jianming with some depression, it was too much to hide such a big matter from herself. Well, she didn't have any position to accuse Han Jianming: "Big brother, I paid for Lian Patrol, who was my husband, who used to be in charge of my mother, to help with the dots." Now that the yacha has been killed, do you think it will implicate me and the company patrol?"

Han Jianming stood up and crossed his hands behind his back: "Scared?"

Yuxi shook his head and said, "Don't be afraid." I just don't want to be patrolled because of me. I also paid for it to help with it, and I didn't do anything bad. I heard that when this kind of thing happened to the yamen, they couldn't find the culprit, so they just found a scapegoat. I'm afraid they're going to make me and Patrol Lian scapegoats. ”

Han Jianming smiled: "Let you be a scapegoat? Why don't you just say that those people want to use the Guogong Mansion as a scapegoat?" The other party shot and killed six yacha and made the government unable to trace the clues, there must be a huge strength behind it. Where is Yuxi qualified to be a scapegoat.

Yuxi was a little anxious: "Will it implicate the Guogong Mansion?"

Han Jianming looked at Yuxi and was really anxious, shook his head and said, "No, I have already taken care of it, this matter will not implicate you, and it will not implicate the patrol." However, this matter is very complicated, more than a month before Duan Yushi was killed, a child in their mansion died of illness. After Duan Xinrong escaped, the yamen went to dig a grave, but there was no body in the grave. The child is estimated to have cheated to death, and now he is hidden. ”

Yuxi is very familiar with Duan Xinrong, so he naturally knows the news of the Duan family: "That child is the youngest son of the second master of the Duan family, who had a fever at the end of July and disappeared in early August, and Xinrong was still very sad at that time. Perhaps, Duan Yushi 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?" "Other people are not good at cheating death, but the child is too young and in poor health, and he dies a lot, so the child of the Duan family is not conspicuous when he dies of illness."

Han Jianming looked at Yuxi and said, "If your guess is true, Duan Yushi is understandable to do this. "The Nine Emperors now have the support of the Song family and Yu Xiang, as long as they get a little rumor, it is easy to kill Duan Yushi.

Yuxi was in a complicated mood and very uncomfortable. Isn't it wrong to say that Duan Yushi is for the sake of righteousness, for the sake of the world and the people. Can you say that Duan Yushi did the right thing? Because of her behavior, the Duan family was ruined, and Xinrong was nowhere to be found.

Han Jianming didn't know Yuxi's entanglement, he said: "Actually, when you paid for Lianshan to make a point, it had already fallen into the eyes of people with a heart. It is also because I am sure that you are not involved with the Duan family, you are safe and stable these days, otherwise ......" The latter words did not continue, I believe that Yuxi himself can understand.

Yuxi shuddered, who else could this caring person have besides the Nine Emperor Princes: "Big brother, I won't inquire about the Duan family anymore." In the future, I will also be cautious. ”

After talking about Duan Xinrong, Han Jianming and Yuxi talked about Qiu Lilong: "What are you doing to Qiu Lilong recently? Do you plan to use him to deal with the Wu clan?" Yuxi didn't have any interest in dealing with Qiu Lilong, so Han Jianming felt that Yuxi 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. It's just that I'm worried that this person will bring trouble to the Guogong Mansion. ”

Han Jianming said with a smile: "Oh, is this the reason?" Yuxi said that he couldn't believe it. It's true that Yuxi has feelings for Dafang, but she doesn't have any feelings for the people in Sanfang. Well, it's not all right, Yuxi has a good relationship with Yuchen.

Yuxi's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he said very calmly: "Yes." I heard that this person has been very close to Wang Dashao recently, Wang Dashao is an imperial businessman, and his business is all over the country, how can this person look down on Qiu Lilong. I'm afraid that Qiu Lilong will be calculated by him, which will affect the Guogong Mansion. ”

Han Jianming said with a smile: "Don't worry, Wang Dashao will not harm the Guogong Mansion." ”

Yuxi looked puzzled: "Why?"

Han Jianming laughed: "It's very simple, the Wang family is under the Nine Emperor Princes. "The Nine Emperors and the Ten Princes have a deep brotherhood, and with the Ten Princes here, Wang Dashao does not dare to do anything that harms the Guogong Mansion.

Yuxi suddenly understood: "So, the Wang family's enthusiasm for Qiu Lilong is due to the order of the Ten Princes?" After finishing speaking, Yuxi muttered: "Killing chickens with a cattle slaughtering knife, just one Qiu Lilong worked the Wang family, too much to give Qiu Lilong face." ”

Han Jianming couldn't help laughing: "This matter is not as simple as you want to get hungry and take revenge. However, I heard that Qiu Lilong wanted to give his sister to Wang Dashao as a child. "There's so much involved in this that I can't tell for a while. In addition, this matter has nothing to do with the Guogong Mansion, and Han Jianming doesn't want to spend this time explaining to Yuxi.

Yuxi suddenly realized, she said why Qiu Yanfu let Yanyu contact Ah Zhao frequently in the past few days, it turned out to be like this: "Big brother, Qiu Yanfu lives in our mansion, if she goes to be a child, will I and the third sister be implicated at that time?"

Han Jianming said with a smile: "Well, if you want to be implicated, you will only be implicated in Yurong, not you and Yuchen." The Ten Princes are really interested in Yuchen and will not let her reputation be damaged. "The Qiu family and our Guogong Mansion don't know how many turns they have turned, if she goes to be a child, it would be good to directly announce the severance of relations, where do you need to spend energy to stop it. However, Yurong is Qiu Yanfu's cousin, and Qiu Yanfu will definitely be greatly affected if she is a child.

Yuxi said with envy: "Cough, I really envy the third sister! There is such a person to protect her." "Yuchen is the one who is favored by the heavens. Good background, good talent, outstanding appearance, everyone loves her, and now she is loved by the ten princes, except for the early death of her mother, which is not an accident, 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 new year, what kind of one are you going to find?"

Yuxi said: "The family style is good, the mother-in-law is easy to get along with, and I have to work hard to improve, and I am not greedy for lust." After a pause, Yuxi added: "If I can be like the third sister, it would be great if the other party could like me." ”

Han Jianming couldn't help coughing when he heard the latter sentence, the girl was not a little reserved, she was arrogant, and ordinary people couldn't bear it: "It's too late in the sky, you should go back." Seeing that Yuxi looked at him without moving, he said helplessly: "Don't worry, I will help you see each other." ”

Yuxi didn't look a little shy, and said crisply: "Thank you, big brother." Big brother, if there is news of Xinrong, you must sue me!"

Han Jianming nodded.

When I went back, it was already dark. Han Jianming asked the two maids in the study to carry lanterns for Yuxi and send her back to the backyard.

As soon as he entered Tao Ranju, Zi Su handed the gilt silver and hundred flowers cloisonné enamel hand stove to Yuxi: "Girl, warm your hands!"

When you go out on this cold day, the coldest thing is your face and hands. Even if it's hidden in a thick pocket, it's cold: "Next time you go out, bring a hand warmer out." "Hand warmers are bad, but gloves do. However, thinking of the fate of the county lord of Heshou, Yuxi suppressed this thought.

When Yuxi walked into the study, Zisu spoke: "Girl, it has been found out, and the eldest grandmother is indeed contributing to the troubles in the back." ”

Yuxi took advantage of the housekeeper to gather a lot of people. Therefore, she is not very well-informed about the news outside, but as long as the news from the inner courtyard is not a secret matter, she will soon be able to know: "What is the movement over there in Qiu Yanfu?"

Zi Su said: "If they want to calculate the second master, I'm afraid it will be in the next few days." ”

Yuxi nodded and said, "I see." After saying this, he took down the thick book of "Zizhi Tongjian" from the shelf and prepared to read it.
