The sturdy life of crossing

On the second day of rest, He Yunzhang got up and practiced martial arts in the courtyard. He didn't want to become a master of martial arts, but only wanted to strengthen his body. Don't be too embarrassing in front of Brother Yang. Keep this habit down.

After exercising and eating breakfast, he read a book alone in the study, and he didn't want to go out for a walk because of the noise outside. The rare leisure was interrupted after a while, and He Liu walked in: "Master, there is a message from Ma'am." , said Madam asked the young master to go over there."

He Yunzhang immediately thought of the letter of unknown origin last night, put the book down and got up and said, "Forget it, I'll just go, you can stay here, you don't have to go with me."

"Okay, young master, go slowly."

He Yunzhang went to the back hall without haste, and when he got there, he saw the mother-in-law looking out from time to time, and a look of ridicule flashed in He Yunzhang's eyes, which is a rare phenomenon

Seeing that He Yunzhang finally appeared, the mother-in-law hurried out, seeming to think of He Yunzhang's rude attitude yesterday, her face softened a little, and urged: "Madam is waiting for the young master, young master, go in quickly."

"It's really Yunzhang's fault for interrupting mother's time of chanting." He Yunzhang said lightly, then stepped in.

The mother-in-law's complexion changed. The young master was trying to stab her with words. Once the young master came to greet his wife at this time, but she always stood at the door and said, "Don't bother me when my wife is chanting." The madam did tell her so, even if she went in to ask the madam, the madam would not let the young master in.

Seeing He Yunzhang approaching, Mrs. Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and she felt reassured. Although the quarrel broke up yesterday, but anyway, this son crawled out of her stomach. Who else can he listen to if he doesn't listen to her.

"Come on, sit down. Come, serve tea to the young master."

"Yes."

He Yunzhang didn't give in, and walked to the side and sat down. Although there are few people who come here to drink tea, Mrs. Ye has been widowed since she was young, and the He family did not treat her badly in life. The things are all good, even if a large part of them were sent to the Ye family by Mrs. Ye, the He family also turned a blind eye. At the beginning, Mr. He was a sick child, and it was not easy to get married. Mr. He left a bloodline, and the He family still respects Mrs. Ye.

Mrs. Ye looked at her son who was sitting by the side. His facial features were handsome, coupled with the demeanor trained in the officialdom, he was very prominent among his peers. Her niece from her natal family had met her once when He Yunzhang returned to Beijing, and she was determined to get married. Come here, she mentioned it several times, but this son flatly rejected it, so annoyed that Mrs. Ye gave him an ultimatum yesterday.

Mrs. Ye doesn't think there is anything wrong with He Yunzhang marrying Mrs. Ye's daughter. It's her natal family. If a niece is married, it's impossible for the He family to ignore the Ye family in the future. The He family is a prominent family in the capital, so the Ye family will be much less fortunate. , It doesn't take much effort for the He family to help, isn't it taken for granted by Mrs. Ye?She sacrificed so much for the He family, the He family should support the Ye family.

It's just that a letter from yesterday made her feel anxious. After weighing it up, she said, "I've been thinking about it all night. Since you only like the elder brother of the Jane family, it's not that mother can't agree to let him live in the house, but I have one condition, that is, You have to marry your cousin as the main wife, he comes in as a concubine, he is already a brother, not to mention his reputation is so bad, letting him be a concubine is flattering him, look at how many officials and eunuchs in the capital are serious about marrying a brother To be the main wife? Only merchants like the Hua family would make such a contemptuous move."

He Yunzhang laughed instead, what kind of confidence did his mother have to say such a thing?Letting Brother Yang be his concubine is to flatter Brother Yang?If Brother Yang was here, he would probably slap his mother far away with a slap, or of course he just didn't bother to pay attention and walked away.

He Yunzhang played with the finger puller in his hand. His mother knew that Yang Geer disliked him very much. Before, she was not even qualified to enter the house, but today she suddenly changed her tone. Is it because of the letter from last night?Who sent the letter?What else did you write?Use him to win Brother Yang?Then this person and his mother are too high on his ability and charm. He has such a high charm that Brother Yang would rather be a concubine and marry in with all his wealth.

Is it the idea of ​​the people behind him or his mother's own idea?He Yunzhang couldn't help laughing.

"You..." Mrs. Ye was greatly annoyed by He Yunzhang's attitude. She backed down a step, shouldn't this villain accept it gratefully?Besides, where did she say wrong, how many dignified and dignified families in this capital married elder brothers as their main wives?Brothers are always young when they enter the house, and those who marry seriously are looked down upon. Besides, she also asked the woman next to her to go out and find out what kind of brother he is, but she almost fainted when she heard it. Who are those people?It turned out to be a brother who wields knives and guns all day long and hangs out with a bunch of rough men. She would rather die than let such a brother come in and be her daughter-in-law.

Now it's only because he still has some value that he backed down a step. Even if he entered the door, he had to stay in the backyard in a well-behaved manner, and he would never go out to ruin the family style of He Ye's family.

"If mother still talks about my marriage, then it's better to avoid it. The son doesn't know who taught the mother this idea, but I still advise the mother to be less whimsical. You treat your son as a rare treasure. If you open your mouth, others will cry Shouting to marry in? Since my mother didn't want to ask about my affairs before, please stop staring at my affairs in the future, and just think that my son didn't come back alive from Jiangnan."

He Yunzhang didn't have the patience to continue perfunctory, got up and flicked his cuffs, left behind what sounded cruel and heartless, turned around and walked out.

"Stop, Niezi, stop for me." Mrs. Ye slapped the table angrily.

He Yunzhang didn't even pause for a moment. He felt that there was no room for maneuver between Brother Yang and his mother, and Brother Yang's behavior would never impress his mother, so it was useless to say more.

There was a sound of wind behind his ears, He Yunzhang tilted his head, a teacup flew past his ear, fell to the ground with a bang and smashed into pieces, He Yunzhang glanced at the torn teacup, and continued walking, still thinking Over the past few years, under the influence of Brother Yang, he insisted on exercising, and it was quite fruitful. This would have played a role, otherwise it would be troublesome to get scratches.

The mother-in-law still wanted to stop her, but when she saw He Yunzhang's expression, she became timid again. The young master seemed to really not care about Madam's attitude at all, which made her feel a little flustered. After all, Madam's status in He's residence still depends on the young master. , I will follow the young master in the future, what to do if I am so stiff now.

Ye was so angry that he threw all the cups and bowls in the room to the ground, groaned for a while, and finally sat on the chair with pain in his heart, supported his mother-in-law's hand and said, "Look at this evil son who is rebellious, really rebellious!" He's rebellious, I knew he was like this, and he shouldn't have been born in the first place."

Some people immediately reported the situation here to the eldest lady. Although the eldest lady will not treat this younger sibling badly, she is also a little tired of her behavior. The good son asked her to push it all the way, and now he is really with her. Divorced, she became nervous and wanted to catch this son desperately, why did she go so early.

"Ma'am, this old slave listened to me. The third lady meant to let Master Zhang marry the daughter of the Ye family as the main house, and let Mr. Jian come in as a junior. The old slave said that the third lady has stayed in the Buddhist hall for too long. I don't know what kind of person that Mr. Jian is, otherwise how could he say such a thing. There are rumors outside that Mr. Jian is even more powerful than General Yun Qing, and he is a more powerful person. Yun Qing The general didn't even want to enter the harem at the beginning, but our He family... She is a servant of the He family, so she shouldn't look down on the lintel of the He family, but no matter how high the He family is, can it still be higher than the royal family? It’s impossible to pass the prince and prince, so that such a brother is willing to come in and be a child? It’s wishful thinking.”

Fortunately, people from the family behind closed the door heard it, otherwise this woman would worry that such an attitude would offend that one, and use the whole He family to punish him. Having shaved her yin and yang hair twice, the He family really can't afford to offend this evil spirit.

A look of sarcasm flashed in Da Furen's eyes, and she said with a sneer, "Fortunately, Yunzhang doesn't have the same temperament as her, otherwise it would be Master's turn to give him a headache. Yunzhang's marriage is not even asked by the master, but she is stronger. I don't know where he came up with the idea. But Yunzhang is also strange, and even I didn't expect him to put all his heart on that brother. ,..."

The eldest lady doesn't know what to say, if my nephew is a warrior, that's fine, but he is a literati, and his mind is all on that brother, and he doesn't even need a waiter by his side. I didn't know what my nephew was looking for before. Such a brother, I can't help but feel that he is too flattering to the other party, but when one thing after another comes out, the eldest lady is glad that she didn't do unnecessary things.

According to the master, I still hope to marry this family. Now that the situation in the capital is complicated, the master is counting on it to leave a retreat for the He family. The master only mentioned it once, and the eldest lady will always keep it in mind, but no matter what How can we not let this brother and sister spoil the nephew's good deeds, maybe her children and grandchildren will ask for that brother in the future.

"Then again, Gu Yunqing had no choice but to never get married. After all, the Taizu at that time made it clear that he wanted to welcome him into the palace. How could other people dare to marry him? I heard that there was no one who fell in love with Gu Yunqing back then. It sounds like the royal family is not kind."

The eldest lady dares to discuss in private, after all, who dares to talk about the right and wrong of the royal family on the street. Now the young masters of the Jian family, those princes and princes also want to marry, Xu Yi's wife is willing, but the young master Jian doesn't like them, those People, they all go for the things in Mr. Jian's hands.

The mother-in-law rolled her eyes and didn't dare to answer the words, but she was also very curious about what happened back then, scratching her heart and lungs to know, but unfortunately the eldest lady stopped talking and stopped talking.

"Master, a letter has been delivered, it's from over there." Seeing that He Yunzhang came back, He Liu hurriedly took out a letter from his bosom and handed it over.

The air-conditioning on He Yunzhang's body dissipated a little. Looking at the letter in front of him, it was obviously very light, but he felt a little heavy at the moment, but he shouldn't avoid it. Instead of being confused, he would rather live soberly.

After making up his mind, he stretched out his hand and opened the letter. He Liu was guarding the door. He Yunzhang quickly read the whole letter at a glance. The letter came from Prince Cheng's mansion. He Yunzhang's head swelled when he thought of what his uncle said to him and his elder brother. How could this be possible?He must have thought too much.

He Yunzhang stopped the urge to go to his mother to question her. All this was just his random guess, and it couldn't be true, but he needed to figure out the truth behind it. Be someone else's pawn.

Throwing the letter into the brazier and burning it, He Yunzhang took up his pen and wrote another letter, and finally asked He Liu to deliver it to Guanshi Qu: "You send it in person, and you must hand it to Guanshi Qu by yourself, and don't let other people handle it. , and told Guanshi Qu that this matter is very important and must be investigated, and I only trust him, or I only trust Brother Yang in this matter."

"Don't worry, young master, I will hand it over to Guanshi Qu face to face." Seeing that the young master was so cautious, He Liu also promised with a serious expression, put the letter away, then turned and walked out.

Guanshi Qu saw that the entourage around He Yunzhang came again, and carefully took out a letter and handed it to him, so he opened it in front of him, showing complete surprise, and it was obvious that He Liu didn't know The contents of the letter, after pondering for a moment, said: "Tell your young master that we were also investigating this matter secretly. Since Young Master He wants to know the truth, I will send more people to investigate this matter."

"Thank you, Manager Qu. I will leave the affairs of my young master to Manager Qu. He Liu will leave."

Guanshi Qu watched He Liu go, touched his chin, and read He Yunzhang's letter from beginning to end.At present, there is a private news among the dignitaries in Beijing that the crown prince was killed by His Majesty back then. Fortunately, the crown prince left a bloodline that has grown up. At the moment of seizing the throne, such a secret news came out. What happened among the dignitaries? Bo Lan, there were many courtiers who were loyal to the prince back then, and some of them are still alive.

Qu Guanshi didn't take it seriously when he got the news. The person who spread the news was nothing more than using the prince's blood as a pawn to participate in the imperial power struggle. This person must not be the current princes, because the news is to indicate the current position of His Majesty. If the road is not straight, the prince will not dismantle his position, so it can only be those princes, and the most suspicious one is Cheng Wang.

He didn't pay much attention to the prince's bloodline, he just wanted to make people pay attention to the movement of Prince Cheng's mansion, and by the way, check whether such a child really existed. Now He Yunzhang's letter pointed him in the right direction.
