The short-lived ghost of the Xie family has lived a long life

Chapter 73 The Prince
Yan Sanhe frowned and stopped using his chopsticks.

"You mean, is it right for Mr. Ji to retire from this position?"

"Anyway, he won't be a good official."

"Good officials and bad officials have nothing to do with me. What else did you find in the Ji family?"

"I listened to a few chats from the servants. Some said that they wanted to redeem themselves and leave the Ji family, but were afraid that the master would not agree; some said that the prince would protect me and he would rise again sooner or later."

"Prince?"

Yan Sanhe's eyes were filled with shock: "The Ji family is actually related to the prince?"

Li Buyan shrugged blankly, who knows.

Yan Sanhe thought for a while, "I have another doubt."

"what?"

"Since he has the relationship of a prince, why was Ji Lingchuan dismissed from office?"

Li Buyan's eyes were even more confused, "This..."

Yan Sanhe suddenly lost his appetite.

I hope Mrs. Ji's inner demons don't get involved with these princes and the court, which will be very troublesome.

Very very troublesome.

Li Buyan ate very quickly. When she finished eating, Yan Sanhe had only eaten half of it.

"Sanhe, given that you eat carefully and slowly, you might be a commoner from a wealthy family, and your family status is not inferior to that of the Ji family."

Yan Sanhe sneered.

Li Buyan stood up and took out the pieces of paper from the back room. While reading, he asked: "I haven't said yet whether you found anything today?"

"There are a few things that don't make sense."

"Tell me quickly."

Yan Sanhe was not used to eating and talking at the same time, so he simply put down his chopsticks.

"Not having a dog is one thing; the yard is secluded and cold, which is another thing; and... being partial to Pei Xiao is another thing."

Li Buyan frowned, "How is it unreasonable to favor Pei Xiao?"

"Pei Xiao's character and mouth are lovable?"

A sneer appeared at the corner of Yan Sanhe's mouth.

"The juniors that the old man loves the most are either those who can say good things, are promising, or are like the third master of the Xie family, who almost died of illness since childhood. Which one does Pei Xiao take?
What's more, Ji's family has so many grandchildren, who will get him? "

Li Buyan nodded, "After your analysis, it's true."

Yan Sanhe picked up the chopsticks and said, "Tomorrow is a tough battle. Let's go to bed early tonight."

"it is good!"

Li Buyan folded the paper and rolled it in the palm of his hand.

"I'm going to ask Tangyuan to come in for dinner. After dinner, let her help you take care of the injury on your forehead."

"You can handle it too."

"Still don't."

Li Buyan shuddered: "It doesn't matter if I hurt my hands or feet. If you break some skin, it will hurt me just looking at it. Let her do it!"

……

study.

After saying the last word, Xie Zhifei was so thirsty that he drank a cup of tea in one breath.

Xie Daozhi frowned, "This matter about the Ji family seems to be very troublesome. Lao San, do you think Yan Sanhe is sure?"

"This is only the first day, how can we be sure?"

Xie Laosan looked lazy, "Father, is the portrait she drew when she was trying to resolve our family's thoughts and demons still there?"

Xie Daozhi: "What are you going to do?"

"Let me take a look."

"What's there to see?"

"Pei Mingting's calligraphy is better than mine; my father taught me how to calligraphy, so I'm not bad at all; that girl's handwriting is even better than that of Pei Mingting's."

Xie Zhifei squinted, "There is no distinction between calligraphy and painting. I appreciate them."

After hearing this, Xie Daoyi bent down and took out the painting from the bottom drawer.

Xie Zhifei was very happy, "It's so well hidden, so what's the point!"

"What do you know?"

Xie Daozhi glared, "What is your grandfather Yan's most unique thing? It's this painting that was hard to find in the past and is famous throughout Anhui Province." Xie Zhifei spread out the painting, "So, that girl has inherited his mantle. ?”

Xie Daozhi looked at the painting and said, "It's still a little short of a finish, but it's rare to have such an attainment at such a young age. It's so rare!"

Xie Erli listened curiously, "Lao San, here's the handwriting she wrote. Let father and I take a look."

"She put it away by herself, so I took a quick look."

"It's no brainer at all."

Xie Erli was so angry that he tapped Lao San's forehead with his hand.

He is a scholar. Scholars compare knowledge first, calligraphy and painting secondly, and poetry and poetry thirdly. As long as he hears someone's calligraphy is beautiful, he can't wait to see it.

"Don't!"

Xie Zhifei pushed away his eldest brother's fingers: "Father, I'm afraid you have to practice this calligraphy and painting from a young age, right?"

"It's definitely a child's skill. She is seventeen years old. I estimate she is three years old. Your grandfather Yan has already taught her step by step."

three years old?

Xie Zhifei sneered in his heart.

I'm afraid Yan Xing has never even seen Yan Sanhe's face!
……

Xie Zhifei came out of the study, stopped at the corner, and coughed hard.

Manager Xie, who was hiding behind a tree, ran out with a bang.

"Third Master, the courtyard gate of Jingsi Residence closed a quarter of an hour ago. During dinner in the evening, Miss Yan sent away the glutinous rice balls, which she ate with Miss Li behind closed doors."

"Ah."

"Last night, Miss Yan came back, and the second master was waiting on the way. The second master gave Miss Yan an old ginseng as a thank you. The old slave checked and found that the old ginseng was from Aunt Liu's room."

"Any more?"

"..."

Manager Xie thought hard for a long time and shook his head: "No more."

Only then did a smile appear on Xie Zhifei's lips: "Keep watching. If there is any trouble, come and tell me immediately, immediately, quickly."

Manager Xie smiled and said, "Third Master, just be at ease."

Xie Zhifei snorted heavily, and Zhu Qing behind him took out a banknote from his arms.

"There are a few new people coming to Lichun Courtyard. Manager Xie should go take a look when he has time. Maybe he can eat something fresh."

Xie Xiaohua was overjoyed, but she declined, "I'm working for Third Master, how can I ask for Third Master's money? This, this, this..."

"Take it!"

Xie Zhifei hooked Manager Xie's shoulder and said with a smile: "Be careful about this. If the ancestor finds out, you will not have a chance to die."

As soon as Mr. Xie got the banknote, he felt it was hot. It was so hot that he wanted to throw it away.

"One more thing, please help me be more careful."

"Third Master just gives orders."

"What does that ancestor like to eat, what doesn't he like to eat, how to eat, whether he eats cleanly..."

Mom!

Mr. Xie can no longer breathe.

What's going on, Third Master? Have you fallen in love with that ancestor?
You can't, my third master!
Mr. Pei is right, that ancestor is a goddess, so scary!
"Did you remember everything?"

"The old slave remembered it."

"Go!"

Manager Xie was so bitter that he didn't dare to pour it out, so he could only run away with his fat legs.

Xie Zhifei watched him go away, "Zhu Qing?"

Zhu Qing: "Master!"

Xie Zhifei: "How many days will it take for those going to Yunnan Prefecture to arrive in the capital?"

Zhu Qing: "Five or six days at most."

Xie Zhifei: "If you ask Ding Yi to set off immediately to greet them, just say it was me who told them to go to Taohua Tan Yanxing's hometown in Anhui Prefecture instead of returning to Beijing."

Zhu Qing was startled, "I want to..."

Xie Zhifei raised his head and looked up at the sky. There was a thin crescent moon on the horizon, and he smiled meaningfully.

"I want to know the true relationship between that ancestor and Yan Xing!"
