As soon as Fang Shangshu left, Yu Ruiwen immediately went to find his daughter. Fortunately, his younger daughter spoke before him, otherwise he would have been really shaken.
Putting down the tea cup at her daughter's place, Yu Ruiwen asked, "Xi'er, what should we do now?"
The youngest daughter had already predicted the matter, so that he would not be in a hurry and mess up the schedule.
"Father, since... I'm sending you a trip, you have to go." Yu Xijiao said slowly. When she heard that Fang Shangshu was coming, she understood what the palace meant.
This is to ask his father and Fang Shangshu to come forward, and unofficial channels will come forward to confirm the return of Prince Qi and Prince Zhongshan.
If you can't be too hard, you have to be soft.
They agree to anything, anything is fine, as long as they don't act like monsters and come back well. Because the incident with the seventh princess has disrupted the emperor's steps, now he can only take it easy.
"Father, look at these." Yu Xijiao pushed out a piece of paper and pushed it in front of Yu Ruiwen.
"This...what?" Yu Ruiwen took it blankly and looked at it. It turned out to be several items.
"Father, there were a lot of good things during the inspection of Duke An Guo's Mansion. I heard that they were all put into the treasury, so I picked a few pieces and sent them to Prince Qi's Mansion as a show of goodwill. I heard Prince Qi's Crown Prince talking about Duke An Guo's Mansion before.
I heard that there are many good things in Duke Anguo's mansion, and I even talked about these few things."
Yu Xijiao pointed to several objects written on the paper in front of her and said.
"Just...ask for it like this?" Yu Ruiwen was shocked.
"Father, if you say you want nothing at this time, would you believe it?" Yu Xijiao asked.
She was afraid that she wouldn't need anything, but if she did, it would make people feel more credible. It just so happened that she also needed these things for verification, so she borrowed Feng Yu's name and reached out to the items in Anguo Duke's Mansion.
"How did Prince Qi know these items in Anguo's mansion?" Yu Ruiwen picked up the paper and shook it gently in his hand.
"Father, don't worry about how he knows it. Just say that he needs these few things. Maybe he heard it from someone, or you can just check it out." Yu Xijiao said disapprovingly, "Just these four things. In fact, they are
It’s extremely simple, no matter how great the value is, it can’t be much greater!”
Yu Xi said softly, compared with the important things of the family and the country, these four things are just material things, no matter how precious they are, they have a price.
The most important thing about proposing these must-have items is that three of them are now in Yu Xijiao's hands. They were originally obtained on the flower boat, and she happened to take this opportunity to test them out.
I vaguely feel that there is something mysterious in this.
As for the other item, Yu Xijiao added it based on what she saw at the beginning. It was a precious thing from her grandfather's family.
Yu Ruiwen got the idea from his youngest daughter and took the paper to find Fang Shangshu. He acted quickly and got the news in the afternoon, and he also sent many gifts.
After the gift-giver left, Yu Ruiwen had his little daughter called over.
There were several gift boxes placed on the table, containing several ornaments or treasures, each of which was no less than what Yu Xijiao had given on the previous paper, and the quantity was doubled.
Eight pieces.
Yu Ruiwen looked at the gift boxes on the table, stretched out his hand and touched his head: "I couldn't find the four previous ones."
"No more?" Yu Xijiao asked with deep eyes. She was not surprised. She had the genuine product in her hands, so what was in the inventory?
If you fake it and send it to Prince Qi's Mansion, it will either comfort or anger you.
Therefore, this is double the compensation. At this time, no one will care about why Feng Yu only wants these few items. It is impossible to say that Prince Qi did it deliberately.
Not to mention just four pieces, even forty pieces, the royal family can still get it.
"It was said that during the inspection of the inventory of Duke An Guo's Mansion, part of it was accidentally smashed by the government servants, and these four items happened to be... all gone." Yu Ruiwen didn't think this was credible. How could it be such a coincidence that it happened to be...
These four pieces, he pointed at the table, "I said I found a few more pieces to mend."
Eight pieces to make up for four pieces, no matter how you look at it, you won’t lose money to Prince Qi’s Mansion.
On the surface of the matter, Feng Yu did not suffer any loss. The most important thing was the Prince of Zhongshan. Even if the emperor wanted to compensate Feng Yu, he had no chance. Now that he had this intention, he naturally gave some other gifts as a way to appease him.
And it's better in private.
"Are these...all from the palace?" Yu Xijiao continued to ask.
"It's from the palace. The Empress sent it here specially." Yu Ruiwen said, and after speaking, he muttered to himself, "Why don't you choose a few more items from Anguo Gong's Mansion? Is this what the Empress meant?"
The cause of the matter was the Seventh Princess. Did the Queen deliberately express her kindness to Prince Qi? But this is not right. The matter has basically been settled now.
After Yu Ruiwen finished speaking, he shook his head. He really felt that he couldn't figure it out. He looked up at his youngest daughter and sighed silently. It was true that he was useless, and now his youngest daughter had to work hard to plan for him.
Seeing that his expression was visibly sluggish, Yu Xijiao immediately knew what he meant, smiled slightly and said: "Father, since it is the Queen's wish, you should make such a trip. It's already getting late, just go and go."
Return."
It was necessary to go. When Fang Shangshu came, he said that his father had to go.
Now I have even sent him a big gift.
Yu Ruiwen also knew that there was no need to delay, so he could only let Yu Xijiao go back first. He hurried to Prince Qi's Mansion with the gift first.
Yu Xijiao brought Mingyue back to Yaoshui Pavilion. She stood in front of the window of Yaoshui Pavilion and looked towards the direction of Prince Qi's Mansion. One was giving gifts and the other was receiving them. Looking at the compromise, it was actually a trial. One could accept the gift.
It also means that Feng Yu's attitude remains unchanged and there will be no changes on the return journey.
If you accept nothing and want nothing, it will appear to have ulterior motives...
After thinking for a while, he went back to the inner room and sat down in front of the dressing table. He took out a small package from the bottom drawer. There was a letter in it, a letter from father and a letter to his grandfather.
She had actually read the words in the letter several times, but still didn't understand them.
Dad asked grandpa to be careful, saying that the matter might be leaked, and said not to move anything recently and to be cautious...
My father and my grandfather were doing something secretly together. Now something went wrong. My father reminded my grandfather to be careful. He should not make any moves during this period and stop everything.
This letter related to Yu Xijiao's previous news. She suspected that her father and grandfather had found out something about Nanhou of Old Town. After that, the news leaked out, and her father and grandfather also sensed the danger. There is a date below the letter, which is exactly
Not long before my father's accident.
Counting the time, Yu Zhongyang was already on his way to the border at that time.
He squeezed the letter hard, and a trace of bloodlust flashed in his eyes. Dad just didn't expect that he would... really do such a cruel thing, not only to kill his father, but also to wipe out his family and his grandfather's family.
Below this letter, there is another letter, which contains some banknotes and land deeds. They are not the land deeds and shops in the capital. They should be my grandfather's private property outside the capital. After being secretly placed in it, this letter is the explanation.
These should be left to my uncle.
Tell the younger uncle that if something happens in the house, he will not have to take revenge and go to Qidi anonymously to seek a chance for survival in Qidi.
My grandfather talked about Qidi again and again, saying again and again that only by going to Qidi can we have hope. Don't stay in the capital. You must not stay in the capital.
They are all warnings to my uncle, but I am afraid that he will not listen. It is useless to tell him to find out. This kind of thing is not something that my uncle can take revenge on. After asking my uncle to go to Qi, he will be loyal to the King of Qi. If there is anything in the future,
Come back when you have the opportunity to burn a few sticks of incense and report it to them who are under the Nine Springs.
Tears fell involuntarily. Even though she had watched it several times, Yu Xijiao still couldn't control her tears.
He pursed his lips, wiped away his tears, and looked at the back of the letter. On the back, he only hurriedly confessed a few words, "Your brother-in-law left something for Lan Xuan and placed it at Yu Jiyang's place. He felt that it was not advisable, so he specially used an empty box to
Yu Jiyang's box was replaced and now it is placed in the house where you played with Lan Xuan when you were a child. Lan Xuan even broke her leg at that time..."
It turned out that the third uncle's box was empty because it had been replaced. No wonder the key in his hand could not open the box in his third uncle's hand.
Yu Xijiao still remembers the so-called house where her leg was broken, mainly because it was one of the few times she was naughty. The fall was not serious at that time. It seems that the house is not under the name of her grandfather, but one who follows her grandfather.
The old man was once a loyal subordinate of my grandfather. Later, he followed his grandfather back to Beijing and bought the house for him.
That time, her grandfather went to see his old subordinates. She was still young and had to go with him. Her uncle, who was also young at the time, followed him out in the name of taking care of himself. Grandfather was talking inside, and the two of them
When I was playing outside, I fell down on my leg, and I cried as if I was about to die.
Later, the leg was injured for a long time. Later, when I went out to play, when my uncle mentioned it when he passed by the house, I still felt a lingering fear.
After that, she never had the chance to go to that house again.
She wanted to see the things her father left for her before he died...
The end of this paragraph seems to have been added later. The ink is a bit thicker than before, and the writing is also very sloppy. It looks like it was written in a hurry to prevent my uncle from telling him about it.
He also said that the past is in the past. Lan Xuan is a girl and she doesn’t need to know too much.
It’s best to know nothing!
Then there was nothing more to say. Obviously, my grandfather did not agree with what his father left to him. My grandfather did not even ask his uncle to avenge himself, but directly asked him to go to the King of Qi because he felt that his uncle would definitely die if he stayed in the capital.
Only the King of Qi can match the opponent's strength.
What else is there that you don’t understand? King Qi is so powerful that everyone in the world knows it.
Everyone in the world also knows that the vassal king is so powerful that even the royal family has to give in...
Her memory is still a little blurry. She still needs to find out the location of the house. She will investigate this matter. She wants the things her father left for her. The secret of the old town Nanhou harmed her father and grandfather.
She will not let it go. The main reason why her grandfather let her and her uncle give up their grudge is because they feel that even if they find out clearly, there is nothing they can do and it will only increase the pain, but now she can...
