Ci Jinzhi - Chapter 217

  Miss Zhu cried for a long time, wiped her face indiscriminately, revealing her red eyes: “Sorry—”

  She didn’t know what she was sorry for, she just looked at the calm eyebrows of the girl in front of her, and she had expectations for no reason.

   “Miss Zhu, I have to think about how to do your business safely. Can you wait patiently?” Xin You persuaded like this, and suddenly thought of He Qingxiao.

   When he advised her to be patient and not to take revenge with her life, he felt the same way, right?

  Miss Zhu lowered her eyes and was silent for a while, then nodded slightly.

  Xin You ordered Xiaolian to take Miss Zhu to the wing to rest, and sent Shitou to Beizhen Fusi Yamen to deliver a letter to He Qingxiao.

   Today, newspapers delivering good news can be seen everywhere on the street, with gongs and drums beating, it is very lively. Shi Shi just happened to meet a team, and looked at them curiously, not daring to delay the delivery of the letter.

  He Qingxiao received the letter and rode to Qingsong Bookstore.

   “Master He, my master invites you to go to the East Courtyard to talk.” Liu Zhou greeted He Qingxiao and whispered when he saw He Qingxiao enter the door.

  He Qingxiao knew that Xin You must have something important to find him at this time, so he strode to the east courtyard.

  Xinyou was waiting under the big tree in the courtyard.

  The sun shines through the lush branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadows on the stone tables and chairs, and also coating the girl’s hair and clothes with a layer of shimmering light, creating a peaceful picture of time.

  He Qingxiao stopped unconsciously, his eyes were sore and swollen by the gradually warming sunlight.

  Xin You got up to greet her, and greeted her familiarly: “Master He.”

  He Qingxiao broke free from the sudden emotion, and regained his usual restraint: “Miss Kou is looking for me, what’s the matter?”

  Xin You asked He Qingxiao to sit on the stone chair under the tree, and then asked: “Have you replied to the person sent by Mr. He to Dingbei?”

  Dingbei is not too far away from the capital, and two days are enough to deliver the message quickly.

   “Received the reply.” He Qingxiao looked a little strange, “The letter said that the people in Pingcheng praised King Qing and the disaster relief imperial envoys, and were very grateful.”

  Pingcheng is the prefectural city of Dingbei, the center of the entire Dingbei.

   Regarding this result, after He Qingxiao was surprised, he was not surprised.

  As I mentioned just now, among the provinces of Great Xia, Dingbei is relatively close to the capital. If the victims of Pingcheng are not properly resettled, rumors will easily spread to the capital. As long as King Qing and the others are not in a daze, they will always put on a show in Pingcheng.

   “They will investigate the area of ​​Beiquan County to verify whether what the young man said is true…” He Qingxiao talked about the follow-up arrangements.

  Originally, he didn’t want to talk about these things, and this was also related to Beizhen Fusi’s characteristics, but that day she was so determined to die that she really scared him.

   “Master He, ask your men to check Taiping Town.”

  He Qingxiao was a little surprised when Xin You blurted out that there was a town in Dingbei, and then realized that Miss Kou called him here today probably because of this Taiping Town.

  Xin You didn’t confuse him for too long, talking about Miss Zhu: “Today King Qing came again, and a girl wanted to assassinate him, but I stopped her before she did it…”

  He Qingxiao listened quietly, her brows and eyes stained with sullen anger.

   Slaughtered a town of people, maddening is not enough to describe it.

   “Master He, besides the young man claiming to be the son of the master, there is another Miss Zhu, what should I do next?”

  Although Xinyou invited He Qingxiao to discuss it, she had no intention of letting Miss Zhu meet He Qingxiao.

  Miss Zhu wanted to take King Qing’s life, and she also wanted to take King Qing’s life, but Mr. He was an outsider. Lowering his existence would be better for him after all.

   “Put Ms. Zhu somewhere other than the bookstore first, and wait until my subordinates have checked Taiping Town.”

  Xin You nodded in agreement.

  Before leaving, He Qingxiao couldn’t help asking: “Did King Qing come to the bookstore today, did he not make things difficult for Miss Kou?”

   “No, I dealt with it with a few words.”

   “That’s good. Before the matter of Dingbei is done, Miss Kou should try to avoid King Qing as much as possible.”

  After that, Xin You placed Ms. Zhu in the private house not far from the bookstore, and He Qingxiao sent someone to guard it quietly to avoid any accidents.

  In the afternoon, when Xin You was about to take a rest, someone from the Shaoqing Mansion came.

  Duan Yunchen is on the list, please ask her to go back home.

  Mr. Songling came into the Tian family’s sight, and Xin You needed Kou Qingqing’s identity to cover up even more right now, so she didn’t find an excuse to refuse, and took Xiaolian back to Shaoqing’s mansion.

  Considering the death of Uncle Gu Chang, the Shaoqing Mansion did not celebrate with lanterns and festoons, but the joy in the mansion could not be hidden.

  The old lady was hit and fell ill for a few days, but now she has regained her energy, listening to Daoxi’s words with a smile, and the rewards flowed down like flowing water.

  Among the grandchildren, Xin You only saw Duan Yunling and Duan Yunyan.

“Your eldest cousin and the same year have not come back from the parade to celebrate, and your second cousin is in the Imperial College.” When the two grandchildren were mentioned, the old lady smiled, and when Duan Yunhua was mentioned, her face faded, “Your second cousin If you catch the wind and cold, you should take a good rest.”

  Xin You noticed that the old lady’s attitude towards her had improved.

  After the Empress Dowager Zhaohe spoke about her marriage on New Year’s Day, she could feel the old lady’s indifference.

  Xin You’s feeling is not wrong, the old lady has indeed paid attention to this granddaughter again.

  After the hope of becoming a family failed, the old lady felt uncomfortable when she thought of the 600,000 property that was taken away by her granddaughter, so she didn’t like Xinyou. But once Uncle Guchang died, the future of the second granddaughter was uncertain, and even Shaoqing’s mansion might be affected. If the granddaughter in the eyes of the Tian family can marry a decent family, it will be a help after all.

  Duan Yunchen is on the list, but his ranking is actually not high, outside the top two hundred, but at his age, it is considered outstanding to be admitted.

  Xin You said a few congratulatory words, and the old lady was all smiles, and for a moment she showed a bit of affection between grandparents and grandchildren.

   Said it was to congratulate Duan Yunchen. Duan Yunchen came back after drinking with his high school classmates.

  Xin You proposed to go back to the bookstore, Duan Yunchen took the initiative to take her on an errand.

   “Don’t bother big cousin.”

  Duan Yunchen insisted: “Cousin Qing came back to celebrate for me. It’s getting late now, so I should send you back.”

  The old lady was happy to ease the relationship between the two, and said: “Let your eldest cousin deliver it. He won’t be busy studying all day in the future, he has time.”

  He is well-known in the apricot list, and after that, the palace examination is a certainty. Duan Yunchen has finished his hard study and is about to enter the official career.

  Xin You didn’t refuse any more.

  Thousands of houses have been lit up, but people are still coming and going on the street.

  Qingsong Bookstore arrived, Xin You got out of the car, and nodded slightly at Duan Yunchen: “I’m here, big cousin, go back.”

  Duan Yunchen felt a little drunk, and Ye Guang, whose expression was hazy, seemed to gain courage. Looking at the girl with a cold expression, he said what had been in his heart for a long time.

   “Cousin Qing, I think you have changed a lot.” He paused and said slowly, “It’s like a different person.”

  Xiao Lian, who was following Xin You, stagnated for breath.
