Eldest Sister, Why Haven’t You Married Yet

Chapter 115: Shocked

Views:

Half a month after Xiao Linfeng and Xiao Linwen left, the wind direction in Beijing changed sharply.

"Eldest young master! We are surrounded by officers and soldiers outside the mansion!" The steward at the door stumbled in from outside, not even knowing where his hat had fallen, and rushed in in a panic to tell the young master who was at home today: " They are all armed with weapons, and the people who buy from our house can't get out!"

Xiao Linyu put down the book in his hand, raised his eyes lightly to look at the panicked servant, and said, "I see, you go and invite the chief steward to the main hall of Fu'an Hospital." Today, my father went out to talk business with people, and the second uncle has not yet Going down to court, now there are only him, his grandmother and mother in the mansion, and now the top priority is to stabilize the hearts of the family.

When Xiao Linyu walked quickly to Fu'an Courtyard, Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Xin were already sitting in the main courtyard, and even Mrs. Zhao, the mistress of the second room, came over. Seeing him coming, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law all stood up, with expressions of fear and anxiety on their faces: "Linyu!"

Xiao Linyu hurried over to help Mrs Xin sit down: "Don't get excited, my ancestors, now it's just officers and soldiers besieging the mansion. Although we can't go out, my father and second uncle are both outside the mansion, and they will definitely find a way." Having said that, Xiao Linyu knew in his heart that his father and second uncle might also be detained. Now I just look at the thoughts of the saint today. The second uncle has never formed gangs with people, and I am afraid that he has offended many people. Now it seems that it is really bad.

Hearing what he said, Xin Shi and others felt a little more at ease: "You are right, and your father and second uncle!"

After calming the emotions of the three, Xiao Linyu discussed with the chief steward of Xiao's residence for a while, and seeing that the Xin and others had no objection, he let the chief steward do it: "Now that the house is suddenly surrounded, it must be because people's hearts are floating. If there are those who violate the family rules or stir up people's hearts, Caibo will clean up with them." Now anything can be chaotic, but the people's hearts can't be chaotic.

"Yes, the old slave will do it now." Xiao Cai has been the chief steward of the Xiao family for a lifetime, and he has also grown up watching the eldest young master since he was a child. Although the family has changed dramatically, but seeing the eldest young master in this way is not shocked, his heart is awe-inspiring. Surprised and very relieved, the eldest young master is now an adult who can be alone.

The Xiao family was not the only one who suffered the same thing in Beijing. In the south of the city, the Jingzhaoyin House, the Lin family, the Taixue doctor Zheng family, and several third-class marquis’s mansions who had no sense of existence on weekdays were also besieged. stand up. For a while, people were panicking, and no one knew what was going on.

"The third brother has been gone for so many years, and these people are still so stubborn. Since they have vowed to follow the third brother to the death, let's go down and be loyal together!" The man sitting in the first place wearing a silver dragon robe had a faint expression at the corner of his mouth. Laughing, he picked up the white jade wine glass on the table and drank it: "The show is about to start."

The news of the accident in the capital was sent back to Luohe Prefecture along with the ledger in March of Tea Township.

"Something happened to the Xiao family?" Young Jin held the ledger and didn't look at it, but carefully cross-examined the news that Han Li brought back from the tea town: "When did it happen?" She and Xiao Linyu had not been in contact for more than half a year. The connection with him was only that he unilaterally gave himself a pair of jasper hairpins. How could something happen to someone who thought they had already set a new marriage

Han Li sat at the head of the main seat, with an unnatural expression on his dark face. Now that the Xiao family is involved in the case of General Han's rebellion, Han Li didn't know how to speak, and he could tell the truth. Young gold

Seeing his expression of hesitating to speak, You Jin was very anxious: "Han Li, you are talking! What happened to the Xiao family?"

"I just listened to the people who came from the capital. It seems that I have been involved in some kind of treason case." Han Li pursed his dry lips, but decided to hide his own business, after all, their business If it were leaked, whether it was him and Erhua, or the Su family, it would be impossible to escape.

Conspiracy! Although You Jin is not a native of ancient times, she also knows how big the crime of treason is, and her eyes are full of disbelief: "How can it be? Isn't the Xiao family a businessman? How can it be involved in the crime of treason?"

Han Li had never seen Young Jin so rude, his lips were clenched and blood was about to come out, his hands clenched into fists, and he didn't know what to say to comfort her.

Fortunately, Young Jin's gaffe didn't last long. After turning around from the shock, he raised the autumn equinox that was guarding outside: "Go and ask Guard Xiao to come in."

After some unknown guards came in, they first saluted respectfully and asked, "What is the eldest lady's order?"

"Head Guard Xiao, you have been in the Xiao family for so many years, you must still be able to contact the people of the Xiao family, right?" You Jin looked at him with a burning gaze: "Something happened to the Xiao family, please go and find out what happened. "

Guard Xiao did not expect that the eldest girl asked him to come in for the Xiao family's business, and his heart suddenly became hot, his eyes were a little hot, he looked at the eldest girl, and asked, "Why did the eldest girl inquire about this?" Now the Xiao family is in dire straits. At the same time, the people who are friends with the Xiao family on weekdays can't avoid it now, but he has the idea that the big girl will not give up the young master!

"Head Guard Xiao, I want to know what happened to the Xiao family." You Jin pursed his lips tightly, and looked at him with his eyes fixed, but the enthusiasm made him feel inexplicably at ease.

The head guard Xiao sighed slightly. He received the news of the Xiao family's accident a few days earlier than Han Li, and it was more detailed than Han Li knew. He knew about the friendship between the eldest young master and the eldest girl of the Su family, so he decided not to hide it from her, and informed Young Jin of the news he had received one by one: "Because General Liu Wei became famous with the battle in Northern Xinjiang, It was revealed by someone with a heart that General Han Guanghong was involved in the third prince's treason case five years ago. Somehow the Xiao family was also involved, and now the master, wife, and eldest young master are all imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, and the Xiao family has also been raided. ." After he finished speaking, Chief Guard Xiao lowered his head tightly, for fear that people would see his red eyes.

Although Chief Guard Xiao is now a member of the Su family, he grew up in the Xiao family since he was a child, and the Xiao family's kindness to him is a gift of upbringing, but now he can only see the main family suffering and helpless. The man felt both injustice for Xiao Jiaming and anger for his incompetence.

"The house is raided! Has the verdict's documents been down yet?" Young Jin's hand on the armchair had already become tightly clasped, and his fingers were so strong that even the blue veins burst out: "The case of General Han's treason is yet another case. What's going on?" When General Han's case came out, Young Jin was still young and living in a remote place, so naturally he didn't know much about the capital.

"The minions have only heard a little bit about it. Back then, the third prince wanted to force the palace, and he found the five-clawed dragon robe in the palace of the third prince, and also found the secret letter with General Han." Although the chief guard Xiao was also in the capital at that time, he could In General Han's case, all the insiders were almost dead. If he really wanted to explain the story one by one, the captain of the guard Xiao would not be able to do it. He just told the news he heard back then. Just once.

After listening to the words of the head guard Xiao, You Jin also fell into silence. Participating in treason was a capital crime to punish the Nine Clan! She is a country girl with no background and no money, what can she do? In the huge flower hall, the girl's face was as heavy as water, and the expressions of the youth and youth were also a little solemn. No one knew what to say.

I don't know how long it was silent before You Jin frowned and said, "Head Guard Xiao, let's go to the capital tomorrow." Now the Xiao family can be said to have fallen and scattered, even if he can't rescue him, he has to Someone collect the body for him!

"Big girl!" Guard Xiao and Han Li exclaimed in unison, the difference is that Han Li showed a disapproving expression, while Guard Xiao was surprised and grateful.

Han Li was the first to speak: "Big girl, rebellion is a big crime to punish the nine clans. Even if the girl doesn't think about herself, she still needs to think about his wife and Youyin!" Although he has gotten along with you over the past few years, he already knows about Youjin. It is to say that one has the same temperament, but he always wants to persuade one or two.

Hearing Han Li's words, Head Guard Xiao, who was already beaming with joy, suddenly became disappointed, his shoulders slumped weakly, and he didn't know what to say.

"I can't save him with my ability. I won't mess with it." You Jin knew what Han Li was worried about, but although she thought that even if there was only a one-thousandth of hope, she would save him. But Youjin wouldn't take risks with the names of his family. He gave Han Li a look that reassured him, and said, "I have my own measure, don't worry."

He turned his head to Guard Xiao again and said, "We'll set off early tomorrow morning. Please take care of Guard Xiao with three more guards, and you can easily follow Han Li." Seeing that Han Li had something to say, Young Jin waved his hand to stop him. .

Han Li opened his mouth and closed it weakly, revealing an extremely ugly wry smile. Only he knew in his heart that if the Su family also had an accident because of this, he would really have no face to see Young Yin again.

When Su Shi heard You Jin said that he was going to the capital, and that he was leaving early tomorrow morning, he couldn't help but worry: "Why do you have to go to the capital in such a hurry?"

"It's just a business matter, don't worry, mother, I can come back in as little as one month, and no more than three months at most." Young Jinqiang cheered up and explained to Su Shi with a smile. Now only she, Han Li, and the head guard Xiao know the news of the Xiao family's accident. If she doesn't say it, Han Li naturally won't say it. Maybe something will happen to the capital. Young Jinsi decides to hide it after thinking about it. Su's.

Sure enough, Mrs Su believed her words, reached out and nodded the eldest daughter's head, and said with a smile, "You girl is always in a hurry, since you have to go out for such a long time, don't tell me sooner, I can still do it. Ready for you, don't you?"

You Jin sat next to the Su family, and the youngest daughter's demeanor was a little charming and cute, and smiled: "Don't worry, mother, they have already cleaned up the autumn equinox, but when I leave, there are uncle Song and You. With Yin Youzhu and the others, mother will have to worry a lot about the family affairs."

"You bastard, now there are Aunt Song and Yulan at home, and there are so many servants, why should I bother?" Thinking of the letter she had just read by herself, Su said with some regret: " I just read your third aunt's letter. You missed your sister Youhe's full moon wine. Your third aunt said in the letter that sister Youhe's son is white and clean, which is very attractive. !" You He, who is still in the tea town, has already given birth to a big fat boy, and he can leave for Luohe Prefecture only after the full moon, and he will definitely have to make up for a full moon wine.

"Aunt San and Sister You He won't blame me." You Jin said with a smile, and after talking to the Su family for a while, he came out of the main courtyard and explained that the three of You Yin, You Zhu and You Bao were not. Not much to say, and finally explained some things about Uncle Song and his wife and Yulan. After a busy night, a carriage and two horses set off from Luohe Prefecture early the next morning. They arrived at the tea village first, and then changed their clothes. A group of four quietly went to the capital.
