Xie Langhua didn't expect that she would ask this, and asked with confusion on his face: "Why are you asking this?"
Xie Songhua didn't know how to answer for a while, and there was a hint of hesitation on his face.
However, Xie Langhua smiled first and said: "But you want to make friends with these aristocratic families in the capital?"
He then shook his head and said: "If you are impatient with this, you don't have to."
Hearing his words, Xie Songhua knew that he had misunderstood, thinking that he wanted to make friends with young people from rich families just for Xiao Yu's reputation in the family.
"I just have some personal matters that may need to be investigated."
As for what the specific matter was, Xie Songhua had not yet thought of what words to use to explain it.
Xie Langhua, however, looked at her twice and then said: "There is no particular place that I would go to. When I was in the capital in the past, most people would organize games and have fun together! For example, the horse farm in the suburbs of Beijing.
Or go boating on Rouge Lake, or find a quiet and elegant place to talk."
Xie Songhua unceremoniously took out a pen and paper and said, "Second brother, please write it down."
Her move made Xie Langhua stunned, and he couldn't help but smile and said: "How serious you are."
But after all, he did not refuse. Instead, he took out his name card and said, "If you really need it, you can enter with this."
Xie Langhua looked at his sister who was reciting silently over there, and suddenly said: "Although some of the prince's recent methods seem to be somewhat critical of the prince, the prince has been very prestigious in both the government and the opposition for so many years, and whether it is Southern Xinjiang or Datong, the prince
Everyone has the absolute right to speak, so you don’t have to be so nervous.”
Xie Songhua just smiled slightly and didn't explain much.
During a conversation with Lan Tian, she became more and more certain that poison was rampant in Daqi, especially in the capital.
This also allowed her to confirm one thing. At least among the senior officials of Daqi, there must be people who had liaisons with Southern Xinjiang, but she still didn't know the purpose of these people.
Emperor Yufeng and King Chen are the people who stand at the highest level of the empire, but they are still maintaining a certain balance so far, which means that the other party's deployment at the highest level has at least failed.
What about the people down there?
Then there is the eldest princess's mansion, as well as Xie Wenhua and some people in the army.
She had to investigate from another aspect.
Xie Langhua said softly: "Eldest brother has written to me before."
Xie Songhua didn't understand what his sudden words meant and couldn't help but look at him in confusion.
Then he saw his brother's eyes clearly and immediately understood what he meant. Her lips trembled slightly, "Then... second brother..."
"Although I dare not influence my father's will," he smiled softly, "but my eldest brother and I have always had some similarities in some aspects since we were young."
Xie Songhua didn't know why, but she suddenly felt relieved, but she still said warmly: "Second brother has just entered the officialdom, and he can take care of those things. Since you want to be a parent official who asks for orders for the people, then
Just do it well!"
Even after hearing his brother's words, Xie Songhua felt a warmth in his heart for a moment, but he still understood that in the current general situation, his brother's power was too weak.
And she also has some selfish motives. Xie Wenhua got involved because of his unruly temper, but Xie Wenhua is no longer the unknown little soldier in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing.
He has already received a fourth-grade official position, so his words and deeds are closely related to the Xie family.
Even though Xie Yuncang had never supported Xie Wenhua's promotion in the military, even if Xie Wenhua had never relied on his family, even if Xie Changqing had never been in court.
But who can say that Xie Wenhua's current status has nothing to do with the surname "Xie"?
In this case, Xie Wenhua's subsequent actions will involve Xie Yuncang no matter what, the difference is just a shallow one.
But Xie Langhua is different. He has just set foot in the imperial court. He is still so young, and even his strength is still so weak.
And he also said just now that he planned to go to the side courtyard to take care of either parent.
If something like that happens inevitably one day, she hopes that Xie Langhua can stay out of it.
At least the Xie family will not be destroyed because of this.
right!
Xie Songhua didn't understand until this moment. It turned out that even though she had always felt that she had never found a sense of belonging in the Xie family, she still cared about the people in this family.
Xie Langhua understood the meaning of her words and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he still didn't say it. Instead, he said: "Don't forget, I am also your brother."
"Of course it's impossible to forget."
After sending Xie Langhua off, Xie Songhua immediately started making arrangements.
Although she has always been unwilling to rely on Xiao Yu because of her personality.
But after such a long time, some people have become accustomed to it.
What's more, Xiao Yu also told her early on that the few people given to her were only responsible for her orders.
Since she started to investigate, naturally there were more things happening, but she couldn't go around and inquire by herself, so she could just sit at home and wait for the results.
At this time, Xiao Yu was still in the palace.
He has been in the palace for five days, and no news has come out at all.
This itself has a very unusual flavor. After all, he is King Chen. If he wants to spread any news to the outside world, it is impossible for anyone to stop him.
So there is only one possibility, and that is that the palace has blocked information about him.
Aunt Lan couldn't help but feel worried when she saw that she hadn't eaten much for several days. However, Xie Songhua didn't even tell the closest maids about those things, so Aunt Lan didn't know what she was really worried about.
What.
Unexpectedly, Gao Ying came at this time.
In August, the Metropolitan Procuratorate submitted a memorial containing more than ten items of crimes committed by the Gao family. Mrs. Gao and several of his sons lay down in the court hall to plead guilty.
The prince was furious, but the Gao family had been running the court for many years.
Even though many people have belonged to the prince, they are still inextricably linked, so with the pleas of many people, even the prince cannot beat the Gao family to death with a stick.
In the end, everyone in the Gao family was deprived of their official status, and it was stated that they were not allowed to serve as officials within three generations of their direct descendants.
Such a blow is devastating to a wealthy family.
For Gao Ying, who has already married into the Chen family, she is considered lucky.
Although she is the only direct daughter of the Gao family, those girls from the side branches who are not married will probably not have a good future in the future.
Of course, she was also unfortunate, because even though the Gao family was at its peak when she got married, the husband she chose came from a poor family.
At this time, there was no way to protect her from the wind and rain.
Meeting Gao Ying this time was completely different from the last time.
Although she was haggard and her clothes were very low-key when I saw her last time, I could still see the shadow of the noble lady from the past.
But today she actually appeared in front of Xie Songhua wearing a jade hairpin skirt.
"I didn't expect that the princess would still want to see me."
The first sentence I uttered made people feel sad.
Xie Songhua was not acquainted with her, but she was not a stranger after all.
There is more or less a relationship with Chen Liu.
What's more, today's Gao Ying is no longer the noble lady who looked down upon her. Xie Songhua has no hobby of stepping on others.
"Why is this," she just said warmly, "it's rare that someone still cares about coming to visit me."
Gao Ying was startled, and when he raised his eyes, he found that her eyes were bright and sincere, and the trace of uneasiness between her brows and eyes had all dissipated, "Your popularity in the capital is indeed average."
Her words were sincere, and Xie Songhua couldn't help but laugh and said: "After all, we didn't grow up in the same environment, so naturally we can't go to the same place."
Gao Ying did not continue to talk in circles, "I came today because I have something to ask the princess."
