Luo Cui breathed a sigh of relief, and Mrs. Jin also nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. But isn't it just that Brother Yi hasn't woken up yet? Otherwise, since he saw those two people, he should let him speak out. That’s it.”
Fu Qiuning thought about it in his mind, then smiled and said: "Returning to our ancestors, Brother Yi has just woken up and his mind is not very clear yet, so I did not press him. I will ask him again after he calms down." Fortunately, my brother's life was saved. The murderer cannot be an outsider, he must be from our house. When the time comes to ask, he will naturally not be spared."
Old Mrs. Jin nodded and said: "I feel relieved after what you said is clear and logical. Anyway, I'll leave this matter to you and make sure to get to the bottom of it." After saying that, he suddenly heard Bai Lu's voice outside saying: " Brother is awake, grandma and aunt, come over quickly." As he said that, he opened the curtain and walked in. Only then did he see Mrs. Jin sitting in the middle. She was stunned and knelt down to salute. Luo Cui had already pulled her up here, and soon Mrs. Jin also stood up and said: "Okay, okay, now that you're awake, let's take a look together."
After all, Mrs. Jin is an elderly person. After watching Jin Zhenyi, she returned to Kangshouyuan. Before leaving, she packed a few snacks that she had not had time to take away. Here Fu Qiuning also returned to his room. He had just picked up the embroidery bandage. Before he could get a needle in, he heard someone outside say: "The young Marquis is here."
She had no choice but to throw the embroidered bag aside again, and as soon as she stood up, Jin Fengju walked in and said to her: "I saw the carriage in the yard, but did you pick someone up? Zhanyi saw his mother, this time Are you finally happy?"
Fu Qiuning smiled and said, "What's the point? We are close relatives of flesh and blood. This family relationship is indelible." After that, he took off Jin Fengju's fox fur cloak and said to him: "It must have been another day of running around outside, otherwise I won’t come back just now.”
Jin Fengju nodded and smiled: "Really? I was so busy that I hit the back of my head with my foot. Yes, is Zhanyi awake? Did he say anything? What did he see? Where did the murderer beat him?"
Fu Qiuning shook his head and said: "I don't know where the old lady got the letter from, and she came over to complain to me. Aunt Xu is accompanying me in the room. Let them say a few words of respect for themselves first."
Jin Fengju frowned and said, "This incident is very unexpected. It seems to disrupt my steps. That's all. I'll go in later and give you instructions. That's right. Have you made arrangements for Meiyun's lower body?" Meiyun is Aunt Xu's. name.
Fu Qiuning said: "Brother Yi is still injured at the moment. I'm thinking of letting her stay in Fengya Building for two days. After Brother Yi gets better, let them go back to Hemingxuan..." Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Jin Fengju raised his eyebrows and looked over, smiling: "You don't have to think about this. What are you going to do at Hemingxuan? You just put your hand down, right? Don't think about it. Just find a clean house for her on the back porch, Brother Yi." My son is still raised by you on weekdays. If she behaves well, you can let mother and son see her in her spare time, but Brother Yi will definitely educate her here."
Jin Zhenyi and Jin Xiunan no longer reject Fu Qiuning as they did in the beginning, so she agreed. She had known that Jin Fengju would not be so easy to talk to. They just tried it out, and as expected, she said this because she was thinking about something in her mind. Then he picked up the tea and took a few sips slowly, then asked: "Didn't I check the origin of Aunt Huo? I thought about it, since the study is such an important place, the door is often locked, and there is a special person to guard it. Although there are only a few servants, if we don't take a few moments, we will never be able to get in without their eyes and ears, not to mention that the key has always been with me."
Jin Fengju said calmly: "Although her origins are suspicious, this is not the time to investigate in detail. If someone hears the slightest rumor and becomes suspicious, I may not be able to catch big fish in the future, so brother-in-law I also asked him not to act rashly, and he should act as if there was no such thing."
Fu Qiuning nodded and said: "That's true. No matter how careful you are, once you start investigating, clues will inevitably be revealed. When our ancestors came in the afternoon, they also said that there is no airtight wall in this world. You should think carefully."
Jin Fengju did not answer, but was silent for a while, then suddenly looked up at Fu Qiuning and said, "Qiuning, if I say, you may have to suffer with me for a while, are you... willing?"
Fu Qiuning was very surprised by these words, and he was also keenly aware of some signs, but it was not for the hardship mentioned by Jin Fengju, so he smiled and said: "What kind of temperament do I have, don't you know? The six years in Wanfengxuan were the most difficult. When I was young, I also ate glutinous vegetables. Is there anything else I can’t eat? What? But what’s the news? "
Jin Fengju nodded and said: "This year, the southwest side just severely defeated the ambitious Huai Feng Kingdom and saved the Roushi Kingdom from fire and water. Unexpectedly, the war in the northwest broke out again. When he entered the palace earlier, Emperor Long Yan was furious and said This life can be regarded as a civilized and martial arts, but the world has been at peace for a long time, and these small border countries may have forgotten the power of Emperor Daning. Although the words are not revealed, I think that the old man may have the idea of conquering the emperor personally."
Fu Qiuning's heart tightened, and he raised his eyes and looked at Jin Fengju and said, "The imperial commander will go on a personal expedition? That means you also want to accompany the imperial commander, right?"
Jin Fengju shook his head and said: "After the emperor got angry, he suddenly asked his brother-in-law and me a few questions. We didn't think much about it at the time, but we just answered truthfully. On the way back, I thought carefully about what the emperor meant. I am afraid that I will take my brother-in-law to the northwest and leave me behind to assist the prince in supervising the country."
Regarding Jin Fengju's guess, Fu Qiuning didn't come to his senses for a long time, and murmured: "As the saying goes, a son of a rich man cannot sit down in the hall, let alone a saint and a prince? Since the war in the northwest has just begun, everything will be in danger. What if? What should I do if someone interferes and puts Shengjia and Prince Rong in trouble? And you, how can His Highness treat you sincerely? What on earth do the Emperor think? "
Jin Fengju slowly tapped the table with his fingers and said: "You're right, I was very confused before. But if it's the other way around, why don't you think about it? This time the Holy Emperor went on a personal expedition, and my brother-in-law followed the emperor. As long as the emperor is willing, he can You can immediately establish prestige and connections in the army. Now, although my brother-in-law is not the crown prince, I am not boasting. He is actually better than the prince in everything. The only thing he lacks is the extremely important prestige in the military. On the other hand, the emperor left Beijing and the prince supervised the country, which gave him room to be arrogant. Didn't Emperor Anzhi just want to look at what this son can do? As for the frame-up you mentioned, the emperor is a wise king after all. , all the real power is in his hands, if someone wants to take advantage of this opportunity to plan something, I'm afraid it may not be that easy."
After hearing what Jin Fengju said, Fu Qiuning had to admit that what he said made sense. The so-called Sacred Heart is unpredictable, is that probably what it is? This is not something she can participate in the calculation, let alone what she cares about. She only cares about one thing: "What the master just said means: Do you want to avoid His Highness the Crown Prince's sharp edge?"
Jin Fengju nodded and said no more. He thought for a while and then said: "It's too early to talk about this matter now. Just keep it in your mind. For now, we should first find out the murderer who injured Brother Yi. Well, if it is true, It's that bitch, I'm afraid that my plan will be completely disrupted. I have a seven-year-old child pretend to have forgotten everything in the past. It's impossible to pretend. If it's Zang Feng, there might be something he can do."
Seeing that Jin Fengju was troubled, Fu Qiuning comforted him and said, "Don't worry about it so much. Let everything take its course. This is such a person in our house. Could it be that without this person, you would be unable to move forward and be helpless in the future? Wait a moment, maybe My aunt wants to come here to see you, so don’t show her shame."
Jin Fengju frowned, remembering the turmoil this woman had stirred up earlier. In order to frame Fu Qiuning and Jin Zangfeng, she even hurt her own son with a knife, and even taught him those bastard words to anger Jin Zangfeng. He felt real in his heart. There is nothing to be angry about. However, thinking that Fu Qiuning has always been soft-hearted and loyal, and said that Aunt Xu is now much more peaceful than before, he would definitely make her think too much if he was too ruthless, so after thinking for a while, he sent Fu Qiuning to the kitchen, where he called him Bai Lu, who had been waiting on Jin Zhenyi's room, said: "Go back and tell your aunt that she can stay with Zhenyi and there is no need to come to see me."
Bai Lu also breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that her master disliked Aunt Xu to the extreme. Instead of getting angry when he saw her and causing trouble, it would be better to avoid her like now. Hearing Jin Fengju ask a few more questions about Jin Zhenyi's situation, she answered them one by one, then quickly bowed and exited.
This was Jin Fengju's decision. Fu Qiuning knew about it and didn't say much. After sending him to the morning court the next day, he saw Aunt Xu walking over with an angry look on her face. After they sat down, they exchanged glances with Fu Qiuning. Fu Qiuning knew what she was doing, so she asked Yu Jie to send all the maids out and let her watch the door in person. Here, Aunt Xu came closer and whispered: "Grandma, this is The thing is really strange, Brother Yi told me last night that the ones who injured him were actually Aunt Huo and the maids in Grandma Wan's room."
Fu Qiuning raised his eyebrows, but felt relieved in his heart, thinking to himself that it would be better if Aunt Huo, the real master, came forward. Just when I thought of this, I couldn't help being stunned, and lost my voice: "The maid in Grandma Wan Er's room? Which one is it?"
Aunt Xu said sternly: "It would be fine if it were someone else, but this maid's status in Qingwan Pavilion is really not low, and she is the right-hand man of Second Grandma Wan..." Before she could finish, Fu Qiuning said in surprise: "Could it be Qiu? Xia? Then who is in Aunt Huo's room? "
