Xia Zhaoyi did not leave Xia Mansion. The night was getting darker and darker. She faced the evening breeze and walked quietly through the scattered courtyard houses of Xia Mansion.
There were many things that she could directly ask Zhao Xi for clarification, but she couldn't tell how much of this person's words were testing and how much was true or false. In addition, she really didn't like dealing with people who had been obsessed with power since childhood, so she left directly. However,
But he didn't stay with her much, which surprised her a bit.
Moreover, what is really puzzling to Xia Zhaoyi is that he has no other thoughts about the past events she mentioned related to Duke Dingguo's mansion. They are all about the dead Xia Zhaoyi.
She didn't ask her deeply why a strange little girl was so interested in this matter, didn't ask her why she appeared in Yufu late at night, and didn't wonder what her origins were.
Xia Zhaoyi stopped, raised his head and looked at the defeated and vine-tangled Founder's compound in the distance, and unknowingly came to the residence where his father lived.
In fact, she didn't dare to come back. During this period of time in the capital, she didn't even get close to Shengjing Street, so she tried her best to avoid it.
Now looking at the courtyard house in the darkness, Xia Zhaoyi pursed her lips lightly, her eyes darkened, and after a moment of silence, she suddenly turned around and left.
The cold wind howled in her face, and she danced wildly. Her face was like a cold ice knife, but there was a scorching hot blood in her heart that suddenly boiled and burned.
Although Zhao Xun's words were not stated directly, they almost confirmed that all her previous guesses were correct.
There is no such thing as good or evil in this world. She is used to being soft and timid, and she understands.
Regarding Emperor Xuanyan's situation, she also understood that he sacrificed a member of the Xia family to consolidate the dynasty.
Those so-called laws and regulations and clear distinctions between rewards and punishments were not used to maintain filial piety, loyalty, propriety, justice and shame, but to maintain the order of the dynasty. She knew better.
But understanding does not mean that she can accept or forgive.
The rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, and her entire Xia family is cooked.
She wanted to get back what she owed her, and if she saw blood, she would pay with blood.
Winter is coming, and she will be the first severe cold storm to arrive before winter comes.
After climbing out of the high wall, Xia Zhaoyi turned around and walked back along the way he came without stopping.
The wind whistled loudly, causing the window sash to sway.
There was a candlelight on the desk and two oil lamps hung on each wall, which could barely illuminate half of the study.
Six people were sitting in the study, and another person was standing. He finished speaking the news that had just been sent to him, then left and the door of the study was closed again.
This is Yang Guanxian's Zuixian Tower. They have not been together for a long time since the commotion at Huiping Pawnshop due to Song Qingtang.
But these days have been too peaceful. Emperor Xuanyan remained calm and showed no action. The court has not even said a word about everything that happened on the day of offering sacrifices to heaven at Chongtiantai, allowing various rumors and speculation among the people to spread.
It really doesn’t look like Emperor Xuan Yan’s style of conduct.
So today, Yang Guanxian couldn't help but wrote directly to invite a few close friends to come to his Zuixian Tower for a small gathering. Anyway, his Zuixian Tower had enough beds to sleep on.
Coincidentally, as they were chatting, someone came to report that some news came from the Yu Mansion.
"What do you think?" Yang Guanxian asked.
The other people didn't speak, they were all deep in thought.
After a long silence, Guo Ting said: "They wanted to suppress Yu He's death without even investigating the real culprit. Everyone knows that Yu He's tragic death will not be that simple. They should investigate it thoroughly."
"What I'm more curious about is the one hundred thousand taels of silver," Fang Guanyan said. "Nowadays, people are in dire straits, and silver is not easy to get. Moreover, we were only given ten days. Can Yu Kai get it?"
"Behind Lu Qianhai is Liang Fanbin. Liang Fanbin is An Qiuwan's man. You should be aware of the An family's recent situation. Maybe it's due to lack of money." Guo Ting said.
"How is An Qiu, Tian Dayao and Yao's situation with Ji Di?" Fang Guanyan asked.
"There is no news. Several roads over there have been blocked and the news cannot be sent out. People from several nearby counties are trying to contact them, but the situation there is more serious. I only know that Tian Dayao has killed many people recently.
People." Guo Ting replied.
Yang Guanxian nodded: "Don't talk about our people, even the imperial court has completely cut off contact with that side."
The corners of Fang Guanyan's lips curled up, with a sarcastic look on his face.
Everyone present felt powerless and helpless and said no more.
Everyone knew why he was ridiculing, because the reason why Tian Dayao killed so many people was entirely to vent his hatred.
Jidi and Menzhi are very close to each other. In order to completely evacuate more than 3,000 members of Menzhi's An family, this battle was very hard. Nearly 60,000 troops from Yannan and Hengping were mobilized to set up camp in Menzhi's Chashan County.
The battle defenses protected them, but there were heavy casualties.
Tian Dayao was originally an irritable and extreme person. After being unable to fight for a long time, he knew that according to his character, he would definitely take out his anger on the people who were ranked first.
At first, everyone was waiting and watching, wondering what choice the An family would make after it fell into the hands of Tian Dayao, whether to surrender to Tian Dayao or to die to show their loyalty to Da Qian. However, they never expected that An Qiuwan would end up like this.
With one move, 60,000 troops were mobilized in the shortest possible time.
After all, the two military camps of Yannan and Hengping may not be able to be mobilized even by Emperor Xuanyan's orders in recent years. Those who really buy in are the aristocratic families who have roots in the world and have worked hard for thousands of years.
Of course, a smart man like An Qiuwan had already given face to Emperor Xuanyan. He first "offered advice" to Emperor Xuanyan and begged him with tears, asking Emperor Xuanyan to save the An family, and then went to Emperor Xuanyan in the name of Emperor Xuanyan.
Mobilize the troops with whom he has already established good relations, so that he can sleep peacefully while far away in the capital.
Everyone knew these things in their hearts, and so did Emperor Xuan Yan, but they tacitly understood it and turned a blind eye.
"The one hundred thousand taels of cash may be An Qiuwan's intention, but it should be Li Ju's own intention to let the Yu family handle the corpse matter within three days," Fang Guanyan said.
"Well," Guo Ting nodded and said, "But what I don't understand is that Li Ju should be suffering from the matter of Chongtiantai now. Everyone in the world is waiting for an explanation as to why he wants to take care of this little kid at this time.
The Yu Mansion also requires Yu He's body to be disposed of within three days."
"Did you think of something?" Shi Yi looked at him and asked.
Guo Ting glanced at him and shook his head: "No, or we can ask the people around Lu Qianhai to investigate this matter."
"Okay." Yang Guanxian nodded, "I will find a way to send someone over tomorrow to deliver the message."
"Well," Guo Ting responded, looking back at the two pieces of paper on the desk, and said, "Let's wait until tomorrow. Now let's continue the topic."
