Nong Zhaohua

Chapter 155

At this time, the eldest son who can let Ran Xiang come to inform him specially, except for the son-in-law of Prince Gong's mansion and the prospective son-in-law of Changning Hou's mansion, he doesn't think about others.

Xie Xinrou pulled Yan Zhaohua up from the soft couch, straightened her crooked bun, and Yan Zhaohua replied, "Oh, I got it, I'll go right away."

After Ranxiang left, Xie Xinrou began to tease Yan Zhaohua, saying: "Oh, what did some people say about me just now? It seems to be saying something... sticking together, inseparable..."

Yan Zhaohua couldn't help laughing at Xie Xinrou's sly voice. After sitting in front of the dressing table and putting on the hairpin ring again, he finally smiled beside Xie Xinrou who had a treacherous face. He walked to Yanxiu's study and saw a serious Pei Xuan.

The two looked at each other, and there was a spark of enthusiasm. When Yan Xiu couldn't see, Pei Xuan winked at Yan Zhaohua to show that it wasn't really him who discussed such a deep topic with Yan Xiu just now.Yan Zhaohua wanted to laugh, but couldn't.

In fact, I also want to know that although Yan Xiu called her to come and meet Pei Xuan, the two of them designated that they could not talk. In the study, besides Pei Xuan, there was also Zhen Guogong and his son Fan Wenchao. In the Xici room, after Yan Zhaohua saluted the adults in the study, he went to the inner room to sit with some other acquaintances. Mrs. Gu was also there, looking at Yan Zhaohua with a smile and greeting, waiting After she finished the ceremony, she led Yan Zhaohua and sat beside her, while Yan Xiu and the others were talking in the outer hall.

"Wei Wuhou has been in the limelight recently, and his behavior is quite high-profile. I see that Yan Hou and him have a good relationship in the past, but I don't know why recently. It seems that they are not quite right."

Master Sun asked Yan Xiu in this way. All the people present were close friends, and they would occasionally talk about court affairs when they got together. Well. This person behaves strangely, he is not of my kind, but he did not see the essence in the past, but now he wakes up, it will fade away."

Recently, the affairs of the mighty Marquis Mansion have been irritating to Yan Xiu, but what is annoying is that Tan Xiaozhi has done such a moral thing, but he can't teach him a lesson. Lian is still suffering, so naturally there is nothing good to say.

Mr. Sun seemed to have the same feeling for what Yan Xiu said, nodded in agreement and said, "I've noticed this for a long time, but I saw you getting close before, so I don't want to say too much. Tan Cheng seems loyal, but in fact... well, In previous years, you went to disaster relief together with him, and the final evidence pointed to him, but you and he were the same slaves, and the blame was placed on the two of you. The person in the third division took the lead in shirking responsibility. Although you didn't say clearly that you were the mastermind, but you went with him, and if he shirked the responsibility, it would be the same as accusing you of the crime. Thanks to you for saying no to him in front of the third division. If you don't excuse me, I will know from then on that this person is not to be handed over to."

After hearing these words at this time, Yan Xiu could only smile wryly. Mr. Sun is the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, and what he said must have been seen and heard with his own eyes. Unfortunately, before the incident of his daughter's day happened, he He didn't see Tan Cheng's character clearly, and now he can't wait to strangle his son to death.

"I heard a gossip that Tan Hou told more than one person that he would marry Yan's family soon. Wang Fuquan, a good writer, also saw Tan Cheng privately meeting with His Majesty recently. He didn't know why. Mr. Wang is the most well-informed of Zhongshu Ling, he has done a lot of research on the affairs of the palace.

Yan Xiu had never heard of this matter before, so he turned his head and glanced at Pei Xuan, who immediately replied: "Oh, I was also in the cabinet when Marquis Tan went back last time, but later on, Marquis Tan was recruited. After entering, I waited for the people in the cabinet to retreat, I don't know what they said, should I ask?"

At the end of Pei Xuan's speech, he thoughtfully asked Yan Xiu if he wanted to inquire about it. After Yan Xiu hesitated for a moment, Lord Wang continued, "Yes, yes, yes, if the prince asks, I think I can learn a thing or two."

Pei Xuan is the nephew of Emperor Kande, and he is favored and trusted on weekdays. As long as Pei Xuan wants to know about the affairs of the palace, he will naturally know. Therefore, no one will doubt Pei Xuan's ability, but Yan Xiu shook his head decisively:
"No need, let's walk upright, sit up straight, and don't fear anything from him, so don't worry about these little things."

The implication is to ask Pei Xuan not to upset Emperor Kande by inquiring about such trivial matters. As for Tan Cheng, although Yan Xiu is also very curious about why he entered the palace, he really does not want Pei Xuan to inquire about such things for him. , I just flattered that guy in Tan Cheng, thinking in my heart, after Sister Hua's marriage is settled, I will always go to the Tan family's bad luck, do I really think that he is a bully in the Changning Houfu?
Pei Xuan disagreed with Yan Xiu's theory, and then nodded obediently: "Yes, it's all up to Lord Hou."

Yan Xiu looked at Pei Xuan like this, and felt a burst of emotion in his heart. It would be great if his son-in-law was a military general. He could learn from each other on weekdays, and he could have a reliable helper when something happened. But Pei Xuan is so weak, let alone help. Yes, even if you lay hands on him, it won't work.

It is useless for Yan Xiu to slander his son-in-law here, but the son-in-law is always looking at the door of Xici Room from the corner of his eye. He has good hearing, and he can still hear her voice in such a complicated voice. Flowing through the trickling stream, it is very refreshing.

After Pei Xuan finished delivering the dowry, Yan's family will start preparing the dowry. However, their marriage is bestowed by the emperor, and most of the wedding expenses are issued by the royal family, so there is not much room for the woman's family to prepare. It was set on the sixth day of September, about four or five months from now.At this moment, Pei Xuan reluctantly agreed with the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs in front of Emperor Kande.

With outsiders around, Pei Xuan and Yan Zhaohua would look at each other at most, talk to each other to relieve the pain of lovesickness, salute in a well-regulated manner, and thank the gift, and then when it was time to say goodbye at night, Yan Zhaohua was approved to send Pei off. Xuan went out, but there were too many people going out together, the two of them only looked at each other twice, and then they were spotted by the sharp-eyed Gu Shi and Sister Rou, who laughed at the side, and after being shot by Yan Zhaohua, He turned to Pei Xuan and said:

"Uncle Cousin, do you think I should call you Uncle Cousin from now on? Or should I call you Big Cousin?"

This sentence made everyone present laugh without saying anything. Yan Zhaohua pinched her secretly, but Sister Rou pretended not to hear, and continued to look at Pei Xuan, wanting to hear his answer. Xuan was not polite, he reached out and knocked on Sister Rou's head, and said:

"Of course I'm called Big Cousin. Your cousin is so beautiful, why should she have another niece like you as a debt-collecting cousin?"

Everyone at the door laughed at Pei Xuan's words, Yan Xiu also shook his head, protected Pei Xuan, and said to Sister Rou: "Okay, okay, don't make trouble with him, and be careful when your cousin treats you later!"

Sister Rou didn't care: "I'm not afraid of her cleaning up." After saying that, she turned around and hugged Yan Zhaohua, who was suppressing her laughter, and confirmed: "Right?"

Yan Zhaohua pinched Xie Xinrou's sleeves hard, and replied: "What's wrong? I dare not punish you, and you can tell my cousin-in-law later, why can't my cousin-in-law settle with me? "

When mentioning Zhang Dechuan, Sister Rou became honest and hummed softly to Yan Zhaohua, then lowered her head shyly. Pei Xuan looked at Yan Zhaohua, and the two eyes met, as if electrified, in each other's hearts In a blink of an eye, Pei Xuan's eyes were a little teasing, Yan Zhaohua gave him a sideways glance, and then Yan Xiu said:
"The good relationship is established, then... come more in the future."

"What Hou Ye said is that we will naturally come and go frequently in the future."

The colleagues who came together behind Pei Xuan naturally said yes, and Pei Xuan himself solemnly clasped his fists at Yan Xiu. Fan Wenchao replied for Pei Xuan: "It must be, don't worry about Yan, even if you don't say it, Pei Xuan will Will come often."

Yan Xiu was taken aback for a moment, obviously not understanding what Fan Wenchao said, but Yan Zhaohua came to his senses, glared at him, and then looked at Pei Xuan, fearing that Fan Wenchao's mouth would leak out, he would tell Pei Xuan to visit Yan's mansion at night. After saying it, Pei Xuan took a step forward and said to Yan Xiu in a low voice:

"I heard that there were assassins in the manor of Lord Hou a few days ago, and I have been worried, but I couldn't take action, for fear of ruining the reputation of the Hou mansion. Now, as Lord Hou said, my marriage with Sister Hua is established, so it should be okay for me to intervene , I have acquaintances among the black cavalry guards, who should be able to serve for the Marquis Mansion, and can also be stationed all year round, and will definitely be able to catch that thief and bring him to justice."

Yan Xiu was surprised. The black knight guards only cared about the royal family. He didn't have the guts to use it. Just as he was about to refuse, he saw Pei Xuan take a step back, clasped his fists at him and said:
"In that case, we have made an agreement with Lord Hou. Let's say goodbye today. Master Hou, take care..." His gaze turned to Yan Zhaohua, and he said softly, "Take care, too."

The same person uttered different words, which is unbelievable, but Pei Xuan did it. Everyone present felt that those four words he said at the end were more gentle, more... affectionate?
Yan Zhaohua also felt warm in his ears, and it was rare for him to return a blessing to Pei Xuan in a serious manner.

Mrs. Gu stepped forward and said: "Look at how inseparable you are. Sister Hua is engaged, and I can finally let go of my dangling heart. Not to mention the comparison, from now on it will be the same as usual. Just remember me as an aunt."

Yan Zhaohua bowed her head shyly, and Pei Xuan replied on her behalf: "Cousin, don't worry, sister Hua and I will naturally not forget how kind our aunt is to us."

The team seeing off the guests in front of the door was enjoying themselves, but a woman ran out of the door, looking a little flustered, after looking around among the many guests, she set her sights on Yan Xiu, and knelt down on Yan Xiu with a plop. In front of Xiu, his expression was extremely flustered. Yan Xiu knew that something was wrong when he looked at her, because he personally ordered this woman to take care of Yan Zhaoning, and she would not come here for no reason, for fear of Yan Zhaoning What happened to her was exposed and affected the overall situation, so she led the woman to the door, and Yan Zhaohua and Gu Shi hosted the guests.

The woman hurriedly said to Yan Xiu: "Master Hou, it's not good, the third lady hanged herself."
