Xu Lanqing had been waiting for her for a long time. Before Xu Xiuyi arrived at the door, Xu Lanqing saw her at the window and came out.
"Why have you been there for so long? I have so much to say with your sister-in-law?"
Xu Xiuyi raised her hand: "My sister-in-law gave me some children's clothes."
Xu Lanqing smiled slightly: "She loves making these things today. Come in quickly. Is it cold? Otherwise, if Mei Chen brings a charcoal basin, the autumn rain will be cooler, and it will be a bit cold when it rains."
Xu Xiuyi took off her cloak and her shoes were a little wet, so she said, "It's good to have a charcoal stove. I'll bake my shoes. What's the matter with me? "
Xu Lanqing smiled mysteriously and clapped her hands.
Every study room was set up with a room where Xu Lanqing rested. He clapped his hands and the door of the small house was pushed open from inside. What came out was Wu Mo wearing red makeup.
To be honest, Xu Xiuyi had never seen Wu Mo wearing women's clothing so close, and she had even seen Wu Mo's vaguely hazy daughter in the fog of the hot spring pool.
Wu Mo is absolutely beautiful, but she was wearing a silk-carved shirt with a green background and a green background with a flower-spreading skirt. She was wearing a shiny black hair and tied up a romantic and unique horse bun, and she was slowly picked up.
With jade phoenix uranium in her clouds, she looks like a beautiful woman who is so beautiful.
When she was wearing men's clothing, she was a bit feminine and handsome. Now she wore red makeup, which could no longer cover her peerless and beautiful face.
Xu Xiuyi was even more surprised by Wu Mo's female Hongzhuang, but how could Wu Mo be here?
"Fifth Prince..."
"Shh!"
Wu Mo made a move of silence, looked around carefully, and then he laughed and threw himself into Xu Xiuyi's arms: "Xuyi, it's great to see you again. I miss you very much, I have been thinking about letting Lan
Qing will take you back and stay for a few days."
"Is this? Brother, what's going on?"
Xu Lanqing stood up, and the gentleness in her eyes was like the soft waves of water.
"Mo'er, be careful, don't hurt Xiu Yi. Look at you, you are so big-handed, sit down, Xiu Yi, and replace your shoes."
"Mo, didn't you say you were confined to the royal palace by the emperor?"
Wu Mo blinked at me naughtyly: "The emperor brother has placed me under house arrest, but who am I? Hehehe, and my emperor brother just said that, in fact, he turned a blind eye to this matter.
Just one eye, I got a substitute in the mansion. The emperor has been busy with autumn hunting recently and doesn’t care about me.”
"Uh! Then have you been living in my house these days?"
Wu Mo snuggled in Xu Lanqing's arms sweetly: "Well, I'll go back when I live in Qiuli. Anyway, the emperor's brother can't really put me under house arrest until then."
Wu Mo and Xu Lanqing were too bold. If the emperor had a great opportunity to visit the Fifth Prince's Mansion one day, wouldn't it be revealed?
But Wu Mo was right, the emperor should have been busy with autumn hunting recently.
Moreover, the emperor's appearance and momentum have always been grand in the palace. I am afraid that Wu Mo would dare to be so bold, and he also put countless spies in it. Once she got the news that the emperor left the palace, she would go back immediately.
Xu Xiuyi didn't worry about them anymore. With her beautiful eyes, she looked at Wu Mo's red makeup again and praised him sincerely: "Mo, you are really beautiful when you wear women's clothes. No wonder my brother makes you fascinated.
.”
Xu Xiuyi's jokes turned Xu Lanqing's face red, but Wu Mo smiled more and more happily.
Mei Chen brought the charcoal furnace in, and Xu Lanqing ordered: "Go outside and wait."
"Yes, Master Qing."
Seeing Mei Chen like this, he must have known that Wu Mo is the fifth prince.
Although Mei Chen is a loyal servant, Xu Xiuyi is a little worried when he thinks of Pearl and Jinyu.
"Is it all Mei Chen responsible for his brother now?"
"Yeah!" Xu Lanqing said.
Xu Xiuyi didn't say anything, but Xu Lanqing carefully saw those invisible frowning actions: "Don't worry, Mei Chen will not betray me."
Xu Xiuyi smiled slightly. Perhaps it was because she had too many examples of betraying her masters around her, which made her wear tinted glasses to judge the people around her. Mei Chen followed Xu Lanqing since childhood and decided that it was impossible to betray Xu Lanqing and Wu.
Mo, I think she was too careful.
"Xuyi, I heard from Lan Qing that you went to find Cheng Shao yesterday?"
Wu Mo sat opposite Xu Xiuyi, holding Xu Xiuyi's shoes in his hand, baking shoes for her. Xu Xiuyi couldn't afford it. She was the fifth prince, so she took it over and placed it on the fire to iron it.
The bright flames pounded her face and her face turned warm and rosy.
"Yeah, he just came back yesterday."
"It's time to come back, and what he wants to do is not that tricky."
Sometimes Xu Xiu thought that she might not know much about Mr. An Cheng, but Wu Mo might not have.
For example, this time, she didn't know what Mr. An Cheng did outside the customs, but she thought Wu Mo must know.
She didn't want to ask, but she felt wronged after asking, because she was not the one who knew him best.
She smiled and said, "Is that so? I didn't know he would come back yesterday, but he just came to him for something and ran into him by chance."
"You are looking for him for the death of someone in your house, right?"
Wu Mo actually guessed it at once.
Xu Lanqing didn't seem to know much about the matter and asked, "Is it related to Brother An after the Su family's death?"
Wu Mo didn't know how to answer for a moment, but Xu Xiuyi hurriedly said, "No, it's just that he has a wide connection and wants to find the murderer."
"Xuyi, I think you'd better go home and live safely. Look at your Su Mansion, there are so many uneasiness, I'm really worried about you."
"Yeah, I'll be at home in a while."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door outside. Wu Mo was obviously like a frightened little rabbit. He walked and hurried into the inner room. Xu Lanqing looked a little panicked: "Who?"
"Mr. Qing is me, Mei Chen. The master is back. I know that my aunt is back home. I will let you go there."
"Hu..." Xu Lanqing breathed a sigh of relief, and Wu Mo in the inner room also carefully poked his head out and nodded to Xu Lanqing.
In fact, who doesn’t suffer?
In this relationship, Zhong Yaqin is the most aggrieved, Wu Mo is the most pitiful, and Xu Lanqing is the most difficult.
Looking at them, they clearly fell in love with each other, but they could only be so sneaky.
Just like her and An Chengshou, maybe it was raining, and their mood was always a little cool, or maybe they became a little emotional after pregnancy.
"Xiaoyi, let's go."
Xu Lanqing reached out and pulled Xu Xiuyi. The rain outside was still drizzling, and the autumn rain was as lingering as spring rain. Looking at the scene, it was probably going to get dark.
Mei Chen was holding an umbrella and was about to send the two of them over, but was blocked by Xu Lanqing and took the umbrella from him: "Continue to guard, don't you allow anyone to get close?"
"Yes, Master Qing."
＊
In Xu Tangyu's room, Xu Tangyu looked like spring and looked happy. It seemed that there was something happy. When he saw Xu Xiuyi, his kind eyes were filled with a gentle and joyful light.
"Xiao Yi is back, so I will also give you a happy family."
"What's going on with Dad? I'm so happy."
"Haha, Dad is naturally happy, Dad is promoted."
"Congratulations to Daddy, congratulations to Daddy."
Xu Lanqing and Xu Xiuyi both smiled happily, which was really a great event.
"This is still a blessing for the Imperial Concubine."
"Imperial Concubine?" If Xu Xiuyi remembered correctly, the position of the Imperial Concubine in the dynasty was empty.
But I heard Xu Tangyu say, "The imperial edict will come down in a few days. Xiuyi, your aunt is really a blessed person. Life is really like a tide, sometimes fluctuating, and I think your family two days ago.
My aunt had an accident that implicated my eldest aunt and was almost thrown into the cold palace. Now, it is because of her son that she has become the imperial concubine."
"You mean Jinyuan's eldest sister?"
Xu Xiuyi actually knew that Su Yacai was going to be named a concubine when she entered the palace a few days ago. However, she didn't expect that Yiyue turned from a nobleman to an imperial concubine, which was never seen in history.
However, it can be seen that the emperor has loved their elder sister.
Xu Xiuyi didn't know why Xu Tangyu said that his promotion was thanked by Su Yacai's blessing, so he said, "Dad's promotion was recommended by the Imperial Concubine?"
Xu Tangyu said: "No, it's just a coincidence. It's a long story. Come on, you two sit down first and listen to your father one by one."
Xu Tangyu was in great interest, and Xu Lanqing and Xu Xiuyi were also happy with him. After all, their father's talent was not too rigid, it would be early to get promoted.
After hearing Xu Tangyu's statement about the promotion, he realized that this was not just an promotion, but also a three-level promotion. He jumped from a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy to a major in Wenyuan Pavilion. As for what Xu Tangyu said, he asked Su Yacai.
It turns out that the blessing was because of several people who were running for the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion with Xu Tangyu. One of them was seriously ill and bedridden. Two daughters were concubines in the harem. During the period when Su Yacai was in a downturn, he was mostly concerned about Su Yacai.
Difficult and despise.
No wonder Xu Tangyu said it was a coincidence that these two concubines looked down upon and now they have implicated their family. Xu Tangyu was appointed as the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, partly because of the relationship between Xu Xiuyi and Su Yacai.
Xu Tangyu was furious. This promotion was an unexpected surprise for him, because he did not expect that the flowers would fall on him. After all, the rest of them were the candidates who were originally the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion.
So now that he is elected, he is both excited and worried.
"Dad is now only looking forward to your brother being the top scholar in Wen next year. The emperor and I asked for instructions to skip the Hanlin Academy and directly overwhelm Wenyuan Pavilion to assist us. With your brother's talent and ability, we will become a great person soon. Then we father and son will be able to do so.
Join forces to manage Wenyuan Pavilion properly. Perhaps the emperor is happy and promote your brother to be the young prime minister. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, I have thought about it far away for my father, I have thought about it far away."
What he thought was a bit far away. Xu Lanqing is not in his career now. If the only thing that makes him have the idea of becoming an official is to restore his daughter's body to Wu Mo.
Xu Tangyu wanted him to be a civil servant, but he had his own thoughts in his heart.
There are only two ways out with Wu Mo. One is to abandon everything and go far away. However, this will inevitably bring the reputation of the two families, or even their lives. He cannot do it. He loves Wu Mo. Even if he loves blindly, he still
Don't love to lose your mind.
The second path is the only way he can think of now. He holds military power and is in power. One day, even the emperor will be afraid of him. At that time, he will be able to make Wu Mo's identity public.
This is a dream, a dream that I don’t know when and when will it be realized, but at least, he is willing to work hard for it.
"Dad, my son wants to take the top scorer in martial arts."
His words undoubtedly frozen the atmosphere in the room a little.
"What nonsense do you say? You are a literati, how can you be that martial artist? What have you been studying for so many years? Those martial artists can even make meat sellers in the market. Do you want to compare with those people?"
Xu Tangyu's tone was undoubtedly stern. Xu Xiuyi was afraid that the two of them would argue, and her father's temper was not very good. If Xu Lanqing became stubborn, she would be unable to hold on to her.
"Dad, the spring exam is still next year. Give your brother some time to consider it. In fact, the top scorer of literature and martial arts are the same. The general was the top scorer of martial arts back then."
"What do you know, you girl? Although the general is the top martial arts scholar, have you seen the wounds on the general's body?"
It turned out that Xu Tangyu didn't feel embarrassed to compete with the butcher for the position of top martial arts, but he just couldn't bear to let Xu Lanqing be injured.
After all, Xu Lanqing knew that he was good to him. Now he didn't want to discuss this issue with Xu Tangyu, so he said, "Dad, I will consider civil and military affairs. Where is grandpa? Haven't you come back with dad?"
He was changing the subject. Xu Tangyu looked at him with a frown, and finally said nothing, saying, "Your grandpa is feeling uncomfortable, so he went back to rest."
"What's wrong with grandpa?"
"The weather is not good these days, and I am sick when I was young. Don't bother him. When he sees you two, he will get up from the bed no matter how uncomfortable he feels. Xiu Yi, turn around and ask Jinyuan to show his grandfather.
The imperial doctors in the palace are not as good as my son-in-law."
Xu Xiuyi nodded: "Okay, I'm going to go to the pharmacy to get some hawthorn meatballs for my sister-in-law tomorrow, so let Yin Yu and Jinyuan talk about it."
"Well, by the way, you're back and staying for a few days, does Jin Yuan agree?"
"He sent me personally, Daddy, do you agree?"
Xu Tangyu smiled, and his expression finally softened a little: "It's better to come back and live for a while. I see how many people died in a year. I won't tell you anymore. The emperor also knows about your second aunt.
The emperor also asked me, and I only said that the murderer was killed. The emperor didn't say anything, but it could be seen that he still had feelings for your second aunt."
"Imperial Concubine, are you okay?"
"How can this dad know that we can get into the harem, but we can't help but be sad."
Although Su Yalan was deeply implicated by her mother, Su Yacai seemed to be a person who valued feelings very much.
"By the way, does your mother-in-law know about this?"
Xu Tangyu sighed and looked up at Xu Xiuyi.
Xu Xiuyi shook her head: "I haven't told her to know yet, she may not have recovered from the haunted thing."
"I heard that it was your uncle's mother who came back, right?"
"My daughter actually thinks someone is pretending to be a ghost."
Xu Tangyu shook his head: "Many things are hard to explain. If they are really ghosts and gods, they may have had great grievances. So after so many years, they still have to come to the door. The incident between the Su family back then was a hot topic."
"Now she is resting in the nunnery. I have discussed with Jinyuan and my uncle. Let's not tell her to know for the time being, I'm afraid she can't stand it."
"There is no fire that can't be covered by paper. The temple is not isolated from the world. One day she will know, but this kind of thing can be hidden for a day."
In fact, it is really impossible to hide it. The temple is in the city and has been very popular all year round. Even if the old lady of the Su family stays in her door and does not go out to practice Buddhism, she cannot be completely isolated from the world. As long as she comes into contact with the temple.
I'm afraid this matter will be exposed.
It has been several days since Su Yalan died. In fact, it is time to find a time to tell the old lady of the Su family. At least she can't give Su Yalan the last time. Su Yalan's first seven soul-returning nights, people here attach great importance to it. The old lady of the Su family always wants
Come back and take a look.
＊
Inside the city, Yingmei Temple.
The old lady of the Su family was wearing a plain shirt and knelt on the futon and closed her eyes to recite scriptures. Suddenly, the chain of Buddhist beads in her hand broke, and the sandalwood Buddhist beads jumped and rolled all over the floor.
She was shocked and shouted to the door: "Come."
The two sisters-in-law Su Jinyuan came to take care of her. He hurried in after hearing this, but saw the old lady of the Su family looking at the beads jumping around the ground in panic and said pale: "Is she here again? She is here again?"
”
The two sisters-in-law knew that she was scared of being haunted, and now they are all in trouble.
In fact, it is not a strange thing to break the Buddhist beads. Besides, the string of Buddhist beads from Mrs. Su still asked them what their master wanted, saying that the Buddhist beads were contaminated with the strong Buddha spirit and were easy to prevent ghosts and monsters. They used all the Buddhist beads.
After so many years, every bead has been rubbed with oil and shiny.
"Don't panic, Master Su, it's just that the Buddhist beads are broken."
"Huh..." The old lady of the Su family closed her eyes and gasped for a few breaths. Her heart finally calmed down slowly. Seeing her two sisters crawling on the ground to help her pick up Buddhist beads, her heart suddenly felt ache, and she almost suffocated.
"ah!"
"Donald Su, what's wrong with you?"
"It hurts, my heart hurts so much."
"What should I do? Miaozhen, hurry up and invite the doctor."
A sister-in-law quickly got up and ran out quickly. Old Mrs. Su's heart hurt in pain. She gasped, her forehead was covered with cold sweat. She grabbed the little nun's clothes with one hand and said tremblingly: "I'm at home."
Something happened?"
There was once that kind of heartache. At that time, she was still young, but her most beloved brother was intercepted by a group of bandits and took his life. That was how she felt.
The little nun turned her head and refused to answer. She was even more suspicious, covering her chest and sitting up desperately: "What's wrong with my family?"
"Master Su, don't ask, Master Su, the master told me not to say anything."
She undoubtedly has no silver here.
"Is it my son? Jinyuan, Jinyu, I want to go home, I want to go home."
She struggled, covered her chest in pain, and walked out after walking for two steps. After hearing Miaozhen's footsteps coming back in a hurry. While walking, she also reminded the doctor: "Doctor, the second aunt of the Su family will die soon.
I dare to tell Old Lady Su that the third master of the Su family has told me.”
"Yes, yes, yes, never mention it, never mention it."
He never mentioned it, but Old Mrs. Su had already heard it.
Yalan is gone, her second daughter is dead, and Su Yalan is dead.
"My son..."
"Master Su, Master Su, Master Su, Master Su, Master Su, how is this good? Master Su, Master, Master..."
"Miaozhen, Miaozhen, come quickly, Master, Master Su, Master Su fainted."
*
After only two days of Xu Xiuyi's life in her parents' home, the Su family sent someone to say that the old lady of the Su family fainted in the nunnery. She was unconscious at this moment, and her life and death were uncertain.
Haven’t you been doing well in the sanctuary all the time? How could you faint? Could it be?
Xu Xiuyi did not dare to delay and hurried to the security hall. The servant said that the security hall where the old lady of the Su family was sent.
When Xu Xiu heard this, he happened to meet Su Jinyu and Lu Yuer at the door. Su Jinyu was anxious and jumped out of the carriage. Regardless of Lu Yuer behind him, he looked at him with a grievance and anger.
Xu Xiuyi ignored Lu Yuer. It was the shop's clerk who quickly took a stool and used it as a step for Lu Yuer.
When he entered the house, sandalwood was burning in the house, and the sandalwood was concentrating. Su Jinyuan was flirting with eyebrows to apply needles to the old lady of the Su family. If it weren't for the ups and downs of his heart, the old lady of the Su family would have looked like she was dead.
The old lady of the Su family, wearing a Su family, without dressing up and applying powder, looked old and haggard as if she was 80 years old.
Su Jinyuan gave the last time among the people, let out a big sigh, and turned around to find Xu Xiuyi and Su Jinyu.
"Brother, how are you doing?"
Su Jinyu usually looks at the playboy, but she is also a twenty-four filial son.
Su Jinyuan browsed: "Mom knew about her second sister's death and fainted. I had already blocked her mind. It should be fine. In the end, she still knew that it was impossible to hide it."
"Who told my mother? Seeing that I didn't kill him, I stuffed so much money into sesame oil. I have repeatedly told me not to tell my mother that these people have treated us as if we were in my ears?"
Su Jinyu said this, and was about to go out in anger, but was blocked by Lu Yuer who was coming towards him.
He said coldly, "Get out of here."
Lu Yuer's eyes were red with grievance: "Where are you going?"
"I'll let you get out of the way!"

What is broken is not the place, continue tomorrow!
