254. Major case(1/2)

As the grandparents and grandsons spoke, Chen Shan came. When he asked, it turned out that He Gong A Nian had gone to the pickle shop first and asked Chen Shan to bring people to guard the house. There was no man at home, for fear of an accident.

Chen Shan is not an outsider. He has been managing the shop for Shen for over the years. His younger brother Chen Shui helped Chen Su manage the land and houses in Changshui Village. Both brothers are honest and capable people. Chen Shan asked, "I didn't understand what my uncle said. My uncle and A Nian were in a hurry to go up the mountain, so I brought people here first. Is there something wrong at home?" He was young and had a lower seniority. He called Shen's aunt by seniority. He Gong was naturally the uncle.

Shen talked about this with Chen Shan. Chen Shan thought about it, "This matter is indeed very strange. Be careful not to be serious. Now the family is full of female relatives. My uncle A Nian goes out, so you have to pay attention. But the old lady doesn't have to worry too much. Even if you choose a palace maid in the palace, you have to say that you will kiss the girl. Zijin's sister has been engaged and cannot enter the palace."

After saying a few words, Chen Shan took two friends to the gate. They sat in the front yard and had lunch at He's house at noon.

He Gong A Nian came back in the afternoon. The two of them looked relaxed and said to their family, "It's nothing, Master Chaoyun said, we're worried too much."

Although my girl’s movie is the Ping'an Gua, Mrs. He was also very concerned and asked, “What did Taoist Master Chaoyun say?”

Madam Yu brought herbal tea, A Nian took it first, handed one to her father-in-law, and took another one to her, and didn't care about drinking it. A Nian said, "Master Chaoyun said that he already knew this, so he told us to rest assured. The master of the Ning family is only a second-rank master in the imperial capital, and the Zhang family is a fourth-rank official, so it's not enough to worry about these things that the empress dowager is not a queen mother, so it's not their turn to interfere, so that we can rest assured. Those things that preach to the empress dowager are all lies."

Shen chanted Buddha's name and was glad that her daughter was fine. She said, "I don't know how this kind of person has a heart. She has no grudges and no grudges. She can barely be considered relatives. She is very good at calculating our family! It's true that with this way, she has sent her daughter long ago."

Mrs. He also said, "Who said that it is not? It is your uncle's family who is serious in-laws, and he is so terrible!" Mrs. He had been to the Ning family before, and felt that the Ning family was not bad. Now it seems that people don't think that her family is a relative at all! It's really hateful that she plots against her girl movies like this!

Anyway, since he had seen through the evil intentions of the Ning family, Taoist Chaoyun said something big and big, and the He family was relieved. However, when Shen served her husband to change clothes, he asked, "What did Taoist Chaoyun say?"

He Gong changed into a homemade robe. Because it was hot, he didn't have a belt around his waist and said, "You're weird. Master Chaoyun has been on Furong Mountain for decades. I used to think he was just an ordinary Taoist, so I bought some mountain land and built a Taoist temple to practice. Oh, when I spoke today, my tone was scary. A high-ranking second- and fourth-rank high-ranking official didn't seem to be anything to Master Chaoyun's mouth. It's not easy to ask about his origin. I think Master Chaoyun is an extraordinary person."

"Chief Hu Shan is the prefect and retired, and he is already a rare high-ranking official." Shen didn't dare to think about the second-rank official.

"Yes." He Gong sat on the cold couch, "Although it is not easy to ask the origin of the Taoist priest, as long as they are willing to take care of our maid, we have to accept their love."

“This is nature.”

The couple was talking privately in the room, and Mrs. He was also muttering to her own girl, "I see, the Zhao family hired the wrong person first."

"What did you ask the wrong person?" He Zijin took a golden and red apricot and took a bite, sweetly, but didn't understand.

"Why are you so stupid?" Old Madam He raised her eyebrows and stared at her eyes, "It was just that Zhao Er and Li Yanei had joined forces with Li Yane to get the emperor's capital. I want me to tell me that they invited the wrong person. I think, Master Chaoyun's Taoist abilities must be taller than King Shenxian!"

He Zijin exclaimed, "Grandma, you have such a good eye!" It's not Taoism, but the identity!

"That's it!" Old Madam He slapped her lips proudly, and felt that she had good eyesight. Old Madam He's analysis was very reasonable. She said, "That King Shenxian is said to be so cool in front of their county magistrate, like a pug. Look at Master Chaoyun, when it comes to the second and fourth ranks of high officials, he is full of disapproval. It can be seen that such a high official is not in the eyes of Master Chaoyun. Therefore, Master Chaoyun's vision is not comparable to that of King Shenxian, and it must be higher than that of King Shenxian!" He passed his inference to his own girl, and Old Madam He said in a big way, "You are old, you have to learn to see people!" How to observe people's secrets, except for her own children, she has never taught the third girl.

He Zijin was born a good at flattering little guy and nodded, "What grandmother said is reasonable."

So, Mrs. He proudly turned her mouth higher.

So much so that when he was having supper, He Gong saw his mother tilting her mouth and couldn't help but say, "Mom, you're hanging thread wind!" [Note: hanging thread wind, a disease of facial nerve paralysis, usually manifested as slanting eyes and crooked mouth...]

When Mrs. He heard her son's words, she almost became a storm.

Finally, Old Madam He's mouth returned to normal, and the He family's life also returned to normal. It was just June, and the heat became even worse. He Gong'an was studying hard. He Zijin and Miss San were discussing the roast duck shop together. As it was hot today, the roast duck shop simply closed for one month and opened again after the dog days. The third girl came to her parents' house and reconciled the accounts, which was also relieved.

When Mrs. He heard the abacus beads clattering, he felt so beautiful in his heart. He felt as if he heard the sound of countless silver flowing into his pockets. While looking at the young man Chongyang, he thought to let Mrs. Zhou see the melons in the well. He put them in last night, and it was cold now. The weather was hot, so it was taken out and cut, so that the whole family could relieve the heat.

Old Madam He was thinking about eating melons, and Uncle Chen came in a hurry.

Aunt Chen was wearing a brown gauze robe, and her back was sweaty on her back, and her face was red with hot redness. She looked sweaty. Chen Dalang followed her, looking like a fire.

Old lady He also said, "His uncle, Dalang, you are here just in time, eat melons together."

Uncle Chen sat in a bamboo chair without even sweating, and took the melon from his hand and put it back into the tea tray, "Where are you going to eat melons? Let Zijin hide quickly. Choose a palace maid in the palace, and Zijin is on the list."

"What?" Old Madam He didn't understand at first, and then she suddenly raised her voice, "People from the Palace!"

For a moment, A Nian and He Gong also ran from the next yard. Shen couldn't stand firm when he heard the letter. Old Madam He was in a state of silence and looked around at the family and said, "What are you saying, what are you saying, don't you all the palace maids get married? Our girl is engaged!"

Uncle Chen sighed, "This matter is hard to explain for a moment. I received the letter from the prefecture and immediately rushed back and told you. Hide, my carriage is outside, and I asked Zijin to take my car and hide first!"

Shen immediately said, "Hide my mother's hometown."

He Zijin had long thought about these people's affairs for thousands of times. She said, "This is not just our family's affairs, and these people are not targeting me, let alone these relatives in our family. If we are interested in arresting me, we can find out by inquiring. I'll go to the mountain."

Uncle Chen wiped the sweat from his face and said anxiously, "It's useless to become a monk! You are all on the list!"

"I'm not a monk, I'm going to Master Chaoyun. They just want to attack Master Chaoyun, but they dare not, so they have the idea of ​​me." He Zijin had already made a decision, "I'll go and have an idea with Master Chaoyun."

Shen was also panicked, "Is this true?"

He Zijin's eyebrows frowned slightly, "It should be done."

He Zijin went to his house to change his clothes and was about to go to the mountain. He Gong A Nian naturally had to accompany her. Uncle Chen said, "There is my carriage outside. You can take the carriage to the foot of the mountain, so it's faster." He also told his eldest son, "Take someone with your cousin and the others."

He Zijin suddenly said to Uncle Chen, "If you have a chance, it is better to pick up your cousin from the Ning family."

Uncle Chen's face changed slightly, and He Zijin raised his foot and went out.

Taoist Chaoyun directly left He Zijin and A Nian to stay that day and asked the rest of the world to go back. He Gong really wanted to stay on the mountain to guard his daughter, but He Zijin said, "Dad, don't go back, grandmother and the others have no backbone at home. Just don't worry, I'm fine." Anyway, whether it's good or bad, it's all these days!

Compared to He Gong's worry, He Zijin looked full of confidence.

Chen Dalang advised He Gong, and the group went down the mountain to go home.

Uncle Chen also had an old man and took a break in the He family before he talked about how he knew about this. Uncle Chen said, "It was Mr. He who was in your clan who told me personally. He couldn't get rid of his body in the prefecture for a while, so I asked me to come back and say it first."

Shen was even more puzzled, "How can Brother Xin know?"

"I don't know this, he has his own way." Uncle Chen sighed, "If you choose a palace servant, you have to pass through the county magistrate. With our family's connections in the county, you will not be able to get to Zijin's head. Now that the news comes from the prefecture, someone is obviously targeting our family. How can you go?" He Zijin told Uncle Chen about the specious plan of the Ning family. Uncle Chen is still believing or not. Now that this matter suddenly occurs, Uncle Chen has to come over and say it. He just wants He Zijin to be rich and benefit from it, obviously this is what he thinks.

The plotter can't afford to offend him. He Zijin really plans for others, and it's hard to determine the good or bad luck, let alone wealth? Uncle Chen sighed and said, "I'll send a few more friends here later. I won't go anywhere in the past few days. If you have anything to do, just send someone to find me. Now it's not a polite time. When Agong comes back later, let him go to my place. We discuss that Hu's family has been an official, and he is a virtuous person. See if he has any solutions, and then go to the county magistrate to inquire, and you can always find a letter."

When Uncle Chen knew that Ning's family was unreliable, he also had an idea.

Mrs. He agreed. Mrs. He was thinking about his own girl movies. However, he was very confident in the hexagram of his own girl movies. She also distractedly asked Uncle Chen, "The Ning family is like this, do you still put my miserable girl on his house?" The person talking about Mrs. Chen.

Uncle Chen looked a little upset. He was old and still had an old view, saying, "What can I do if I get married?" In Uncle Chen's concept, marrying a woman is a lifelong thing.

Mrs. He said, "I heard that the court now has no matter whether women are widowed or not, and you have made almost enough money. Think about it, if you want the child back, you are not too old. If you look for a marriage, you may not be able to find it."

Uncle Chen was so tired and in a bad mood, so he got up and said goodbye.

He was used by He Zijin and his party. Fortunately, the servant who stayed behind was also clever. He called a sedan chair on the street and sent the old man home.

The third girl was worried and kept accompanying Mrs. He until the evening before going back.

It was a little late to get the news from the Hu family, but I also found out that night.

Chief Hu Shanzhen went to the county magistrate's house and asked about the selection of palace maids. The county magistrate's surname was Sun, and he was also the old county magistrate of Bishui County. Prince Sun was completely confused and did not know that there was any such thing. Chief Hu Shanzhen said hello to the county magistrate Sun. Prince Sun said, "I have been an official here for more than ten years. No matter how much I choose a palace maid, I should have told me."

Hu Shan sighed, "The world is now..." County Magistrate Sun encouraged industry and commerce in Bishui County and established academies. It was considered a rare good official, but he has not been promoted over the years. Even Chief Hu Shan couldn't help but sigh that the world is no longer as good as before.

County Magistrate Sun smiled, "Don't worry, senior, no matter how many people recruited the palace, they would not know my parents' official when they came to our county. When I was introduced, I would explain the situation of the He family girl with the recruitment official. One is over the age of the age, and the other is also a person who has been married."

Chief Hu, He Gong, and Uncle Chen hurriedly thanked the magistrate Sun County, which is the right thing to do. Even Chief Hu had a higher rank before his retirement than the magistrate Sun County. According to the official rules, Sun County Magistrate called Chief Hu a senior, but the county magistrate was a parent official in the same place, and the local gentry would be very polite, not to mention that the magistrate Sun was indeed a good parent official.

After communicating with County Magistrate Sun, He Gong's heart was a little relieved.

After three days of peace, a group of people came to Bishui County, and there were formal documents. The county magistrate Sun was still brave enough when he went to the county government first. The main reason was that he had been in Bishui County for more than ten years and had already lost his desire for promotion, so he was more courageous. Moreover, there was also a member of Bishui County in this group - Zhao Er. Sun County Magistrate Sun said, "I heard that all the people who chose palace were between the ages of thirteen and fifteen. Miss He had passed the ceremony and had a marriage. If you want to choose this, wouldn't it be disrespectful to Long Live?"

Zhao Erdao, "This is not the worry of the county magistrate."

The magistrate of Sun County endured his anger, "As a court official, I was ordered by Your Majesty to be a parent. It is related to Your Majesty, so I will naturally have to worry about it carefully."

Since the Zhao family produced an empress and gave birth to a prince, how could they take the small seventh-rank county magistrate seriously? Zhao Er sneered, "So, is the lord going to disobey?"

County Magistrate Sun did not dare to resist the order, but County Magistrate Sun had a wink and his servant first took a shortcut to the He family to inform him.

The He family also made preparations.

He Gong sat at home with a good attitude. He was the most kind of person in his daily life. The biggest hatred in this life was Zhao Er in front of him. He had no grievances or grudges, so he just planned his family. He Gong endured his anger and said something he had agreed to. He said, "My girl went to the mountain to practice in Yunguan. She was in seclusion. I didn't see anyone before."

Zhao Er suspected, "Siucai, you are hiding your daughter, right?"

He Gongji glanced at Zhao Er in disgust, "I left these words here, whether I hid them or not, Chaoyunguan couldn't run away there."

What else Zhao Er wanted to say? Chen Dalang and Hu Wen arrived with a bunch of people there. The wife of Feng's family next door also brought the servant girl. There were also the He family. Although it was not a big family, there were some people in the family. For a moment, the He family courtyard was full of people, and Zhao Er shouted, "Why, where do you want to rebel?"

Who is afraid of whom?

A strong dragon can't defeat a local snake.

Although Zhao Er had brought such a team of soldiers, the locals were not afraid of him. Someone said, "Zhao Er, you have no official position and no position. If you say you have rebelled, someone must believe it. Why did you bring such people to do? Those who know said that you wanted someone Xiao Xianer to be a palace servant in the palace. Those who don't know thought that bandits came."

Someone else pulled the officers and soldiers and said, "It is rare for the official to come to our Bishui County. Let's go for a walk, let's have a drink first."

Someone also said to the Zhao family, "Isn't there an empress in your house? You always make a fool of yourself as the emperor's brother-in-law. Don't brag. If you are really the emperor's brother-in-law, how can the emperor not be your official! Do you have an official? Are you an official?"

"That's right, I heard that there are three thousand empresses in the Emperor's Palace. How many empresses are in your family?"

Zhao Er was so angry that he shook his sleeves and said, "You guys are waiting!"

"Wait and wait, you still want to kill someone! Tell me~ Whoever is afraid of whom, who doesn't know who, I've gone to drink your full moon wine."

County Magistrate Sun suddenly said, "Zhao Erlang, I am here and I will not allow you to threaten the people!"

Zhao Er wanted to vomit blood, but he had no choice but to deal with these troublemakers! County Magistrate Sun was helping him here, and Zhao Er left with regret.

What made him hate was still behind. Zhao Er took people to the mountain to get people, and there was a group of people behind him. Zhao Er angrily said, "What are you doing with me?"

Hu Wen said, "The road is halfway through the sky. Is this the way of your Zhao family? You are allowed to walk, but others can't walk? Don't say that your concubine just gave birth to a prince. Even if she gave birth to a prince, she can't have the surname Zhao in the world!"

The grudge between Zhao and Hu families was even earlier. Zhao Er was so angry that he gave Hu Wen these harsh words, so he simply ignored Hu Wen and took people to Chaoyunguan to do a serious business.

In fact, both the Hu family and the He family have many speculations about Taoist Chaoyun's identity. However, since Taoist Chaoyun rarely goes out in recent years, everyone is just speculating. After all, it is difficult for ordinary people to see Taoist Chaoyun.

Zhao Er took his group to the mountain, followed by Hu, He and Chen San's family. Such a group of people suddenly went to the mountain. Even the shop next to the academy was alarmed. Jiang Ren handed the shop to the neighbors to take care of him, and he also came to help. Zhao Er knocked on the mountain door unfriendly. Wen Dao did not look like he was smiling at He Zijin at this time. How could Wen Dao's expression be described? If He Zijin saw him, he would definitely give him an adjective - Gao Cold. That's right, it's Gao Cold, that kind of coldness, almost killing Zhao Er. Wen Dao fans asked coldly, "What's the matter?"

Zhao Erdao, "The court summoned He Zijin to the palace to be a palace maid. Didn't she be in your Taoist temple? Let her come out."

If someone with a little knowledgeable person listens to this, he can really laugh out loud. Even if the imperial court recruits a palace maid, it is based on the region and age. How could he specifically designate who to be a palace maid in the palace? Bishui County is a local bully. After hearing Zhao Er's words, everyone had no reaction. Wen Dao twitched the corner of his lips and asked, "Do you have any certificate?"
