After the spring this year, the north and south have different days. The south is cloudy and rainy, and it is not open for months. In the north, the sun is shining brightly, but it never rains.
Jin Yi was instructed to lead the people under his command to dig wells and channel the canals for the dry fields for several months, and return to Jin's house every ten days and a half. The flowers and trees in Fangmanting are not as good as in previous years. Even though Fu Ming's cooking is still meticulous, perhaps the water that people pour into the ground is not as good as the rain.
The flowers have not yet bloomed well, and it is the end of spring, so I have to leave the branches with a bit of reluctance, and they fall into mud.
Fu Ming didn't have much effort to cherish the time and hurt the spring. He received a letter from Jiangnan, saying that his wet nurse contracted the disease in the spring. Not only did it not heal for a long time, but it became more serious, and many famous local doctors did not work.
Fu Ming thought of his half-teacher Uncle Fang, and went to the Salesian Bureau to invite him to travel south to consult his wet nurse.
Fang Shiyue was not in the Salesian Bureau, and Sun Zangyong told Fu Ming that he had gone south again. It was clear where he was going. Fu Ming immediately wrote a letter in the Salesian Bureau, asking someone to send it to him quickly.
When Fu Ming returned to the house with a still uneasy mood, he was stopped by a child halfway along the way, "Young Master, Master Yan has a request."
Fu Ming asked, "Young Master Yan? Yan Le?"
"Exactly, please come with me." The boy showed the token, an ornament that Yan Le carried with him, which was given to him by Fu Ming when Yan Le decided to leave the Salesian Bureau many years ago.
Fu Ming followed the boy from the main street into a curved alley, and finally the two entered a small house.
The person waiting inside was indeed Yan Le.
The two chatted for a while, and Fu Ming learned that Yan Le was close to the prince. He didn't know whether to be happy or worried for him, so he just said: "You are careful in everything, the most important thing is to take care of yourself."
"I know, Brother Ming, you don't have to worry about me." Yan Le said, but her expression became solemn, "I actually have something to tell you this time."
"What's the matter? But is there anything I can do to help?"
Yan Le shook his head and said, "It's not that I have something to ask you to help with, but that it has something to do with your husband."
"It has something to do with him? How do you say this?"
"You and I both know that the older the sage is, the more powerful he is, the more powerful the three princes should not be. At this point, the two princes are on the same page. And General Jin, he should have already stood firm. On the side of the third prince, right?"
"Although I don't ask him much about the affairs of the court, the third prince values him, and he is willing to be loyal to the third prince. This is something I can be sure of. And occasionally when I drink with the Lord at night, when he is interested, he will also Tell me a few words, he is happy when the ruler and the minister meet each other." Fu Ming said, "Ale, did you get any news from the prince? Is it related to him?"
Yanle
He replied: "I did hear some things. Although the crown prince is not as obsessed with the government as the third prince, he is still a prince, and the people around him do not allow him to remain silent. Now that he has reached this point, the prince is not Last year, General Jin promoted his military merits, the Jin family married the giant Tao family, and attracted the relatively neutral Zhou family. target to deal with.”
When Fu Ming heard the words, he couldn't help but worry, "Everything you said makes sense, but the fact is that it's over, and it won't change the facts."
Yan Le said: "When I was instructed to go to the banquet to cheer up the prince a few days ago, I heard two words outside the door. They should be about to take action. It's just that I am an actor after all, and I can't find out more concrete news. Today Come, just to remind you, you should be more careful."
Fu Ming nodded, "I understand, it's not easy for you to find me today to tell me this. Ale, thank you."
Yan Le smiled, "If I don't come, won't I betray the love between us for so many years? No matter what, I hope you can be safe and well."
Fu Mingdao: "Well, I will explain it to my grandfather when I go back. You too, you have to be more careful when you are in the tiger's den. I also hope that you will retreat."
After the two of them had finished talking, they stopped delaying. Fu Ming left first, and after a few cups of tea, Yan Le went out through another door.
Fu Ming concealed Yan Le's identity, and told Jin Yishi about the important matter. Jin Yi said: "I know what I have in mind. I will discuss with the third prince, and I will pay more attention. You can rest assured."
Although Jin Yi said so, Fu Ming couldn't be completely relieved. In addition, Nanfang had not replied to the letter, and the double worries weighed on his heart, which often made it difficult for him to sleep at night.
After more than 20 days, he finally received a letter from Jiangnan. Uncle Fang had arrived and adjusted the prescription for the consultation of the nursing mother, and his condition had improved. After another half month, when Fu Ming received the letter again, he said that he was almost healed. There was no major movement in the imperial court. Although Fu Ming was not completely at ease, he gradually became relieved. Finally, he stopped tossing and turning and regained his appetite. Jin Yi took the opportunity to let the chef cook in different ways every day, adding more nourishing ingredients, so that Fu Ming gradually made up for what he had lost in the past few decades.
Summer is deep. When the weather is hot, people will be lazy, fish hide under lotus leaves and stay still; birds hide in the shade of trees, with their wings and eyes closed.
Fu Ming was reading under the willow tree by the pond. When the sun was in the west, the sun shone diagonally, and even the thick willow branches could not cover the shade. sentence:
The heat of the summer heats up for a long time, and the tea smoke is hard to cool and the entrance is late. What's the reason for Chang Xia's disappearance? Mojie Poems, Dongpo Ci.
Tired of throwing books to look at the clear pond, I forgot about Zi Feiyu in a daze. Suddenly the clouds scattered into strands. Tang Qianyan, an old acquaintance.
The next day, Ren Lan came to Fang Man Ting and saw this new poem, which is not very rhythmic, on the bookcase, and smiled, "Brother Ming has not been so leisurely in a long time."
Fu Ming smiled lightly and replied, "It was really too much work a while ago. I didn't do anything yesterday and enjoyed the day. What is Miss Lelan coming to see me for today?"
"There are indeed some things that I encountered while reading a book. I don't understand something, and I want to ask Ming brother for advice."
"What book did my sister read recently? What's the problem?"
Ren Lan said with a slight embarrassment, "I didn't read any books seriously, I just wanted to come—his family is a merchant's family, and I wasn't born in that kind of family, so I really don't know much. So I flipped through the relevant articles in the book to read. , I read Taishigong's "Biography of Huoji" yesterday, and I don't understand a few things, so I want Brother Ming to clear up my doubts."
Fu Ming knew that this year, Renlan not only interacted with the sisters who had made good friends in the past, but also got to know a few female relatives of famous businessmen in the capital through referrals. Hearing Renlan say this, he smiled and said, "My sister has a heart. As a matter of fact, we're 'doubt and analysis'."
The two started talking about this, and when they were talking about being in high spirits, a maid hurriedly rushed to the hospital outside. Arrested, surrounded by officers and soldiers outside the mansion!"
The book in Ren Lan's hand fell to the ground, her face was instantly pale, Fu Ming still held the tea cup firmly, but his hands were shaking so much that he could hardly control his expression, and after a while, he said, "I see."
Jin Yi was arrested, and Jin's mansion was surrounded by officers and soldiers. How many people in the capital were stunned and looked at each other, but they didn't dare to approach Jin's residence for half a step, and they didn't dare to openly inquire about it, for fear of causing trouble.
When Fu Ming first heard it, he was also very frightened, but now he is the only healthy adult man in the mansion. He must stabilize himself first, and then appease the whole family.
The old lady has lived to this age, and she can be considered to have gone through the storm, but she is still frightened and terrified. Fu Ming told her what happened a few days ago in a low voice, but he deleted a few points, and it didn't sound like a big hindrance. , and said that both Jin Yi and the third prince were ready to deal with it, and this matter should only be a near miss. When the old lady heard this, Gao Xuan's heart sank a little, and the tears in her eyes gradually disappeared.
Fu Ming said the same thing to Renlan earlier, and asked Renlan to comfort Xinyue and the maids and wives who served Jin Yi. Zhaoyan was still young, so Fu Ming found an easier reason to appease him, and took him to Fangmanting to stay temporarily, lest he be afraid or someone would make irresponsible remarks in front of him.
In this way, although the accident happened, the Jin Mansion did not panic, but was calm as usual, which saved a lot of trouble for the officers and soldiers who were guarding. Style of the year.
The mansion is now stable, but Fu Ming's heart is tumbling with anxiety that others don't know. He tried to inquire with the general who led the guards at the mansion gate, but the general "please" returned him with a wallet and a cold attitude. Inside the mansion, Fu Ming knew that it was impossible for these people outside to be accommodating.
The red sun is setting in the west, and the evening summer sky is as gorgeous as a splendid pavilion.
The sun was dim, and the tired bird had returned to its nest, but Jin Yi could not return home. I don't know why the court arrested him, and I don't know what his current situation is and what will happen in the future.
When Fu Ming was living his life like a year old, Xiang Lan came up and said, "Young Master, please see the porter who just entered the house to deliver firewood."
Although Jin Mansion was besieged and people in the mansion were not allowed to go out, people who delivered firewood, food, and medicinal materials were not prohibited from entering or leaving. It seemed that the matter had not reached the most serious level. Put your mind at ease, and let someone invite Nachaif to the courtyard.
That Chaifu was indeed entrusted by others and came to report the news. After seeing Fu Ming and bowing, when Fu Ming asked, he immediately replied:
"Master, the youngest was entrusted by Young Master Zhou. Young Master Zhou found out the reason for General Jin's arrest, and said that he had the intention of not being a minister."
"Not a minister's heart?" When Fu Ming heard the words, his slightly wide heart sank again.
"I heard that someone reported that General Jin was hiding the family members of the robbers. Now the family members of the robbers have been found, and some low-level officers and soldiers who followed the general south to suppress the rebellion testified. The woman and the family were still in her stomach. The child in the middle was indeed brought back to the capital by the general to settle down."
The family of thieves? woman? child? Fu Ming suddenly understood. Jin Yi must not have known the truth at the beginning, but he did not want his unintentional acts of kindness to be used by others to frame him, and the woman and child, with such identities, why did they want to enter Beijing? Now that he is caught, he will never return.
Seeing that Fu Ming's eyes changed, the porter hurriedly advised: "Young Master, Young Master Zhou also asked Xiao to tell you that although General Jin has been arrested, the crime has not been established, and the Holy Master has only imprisoned him temporarily. And ordered a thorough investigation, General Jin is loyal and upright, and the Holy Master will definitely return him justice. The Zhou family will not ignore this matter, and General Jin will receive due care. Please rest assured, take care of yourself and take good care of the old man in the house. Weak women and children, wait for General Jin to return home safely."
When Fu Ming heard the words, his breath became much calmer, and he nodded: "I know, please help me to tell Young Master Zhou, I don't want to say thank you, I remember this feeling."
