Lonely non-good minister

Chapter 53

They are so strict that they wait for the girls to get married, so they can use their in-laws to help the Duke's mansion and make connections, so even if they come from a side branch, the rules and etiquette don't have to be low.

"Girl, hurry up and copy." Mother Chang kept urging.

Mu Wantang had no choice but to sit down behind the table, and Chang's mother watched from the side, correcting her behavior at any time, and not allowing any irregularities to appear.

"Miss." A maid came outside: "Master Ninth ordered someone to bring over a lot of barbecue, saying that he thanked us for the broth, Madam told the girl to bring some as well."

After hearing this, Mu Wantang was overjoyed immediately, but Chang's mother was still in front of her, so she didn't dare to show too much emotion, and she still wrote with downcast eyes.

"Bring it in." Chang's mother agreed: "The barbecue is greasy, the girl should eat less."

She left after leaving a message, Mu Wantang got up immediately, took the maid's hand and looked at it, feeling guilty, the maid wiped away her tears: "Girl, don't be upset, slaves don't care."

"It hurts you." Mu Wantang casually pulled out a pearl flower from her hair and put it in the maid's hand: "Take it."

The maid didn't dare to ask for it, so she hurriedly declined: "Girl, this thing is too expensive."

"Take it as my reward, take it quickly." Mu Wantang looked outside vigilantly: "Don't let Chang's mother see it."

The maid was busy putting it away, and was busy taking out the bowls and chopsticks to serve Mu Wantang to eat. The barbecue sent by Wei Yan was very hearty, fat and thin, not particularly greasy, but less seasoning, only a little Sprinkle some salt flowers to adjust mouth.

Mu Wantang liked it quite a bit, and immediately asked, "Are there any chestnuts in the things we brought?"

"There are some, do you want to eat, girl?"

Mu Wantang wanted to give some to Song Yuan. She saw that Song Yuan was very boring, but after thinking about it, it seemed impolite for a girl like her to send things without any reason. Mrs. Mu and Chang's mother would definitely not agree, so she had to give up. Shaking his head with a little disappointment, he said that he would not eat.

It snowed heavily all night, and in the early morning, Song Yuan just got out of bed in a daze when he heard Wei Yan calling: "Buried?"

Song Yuan:? ? ?
She was so sleepy that she couldn't turn her head, she was wrapped in a quilt and sat against the wall, feeling the urge to sleep again.

"My lord, look quickly, my lord." Wei Yan rushed in and pushed the window: "Look!"

Song Yuan, who was dazed and staring, was blown by the cold wind, and instantly refreshed. She grabbed the pillow and threw it over: "Shut it!"

Wei Yan immediately closed the window, watched nervously as the irritable woman slowly moved out, and finally closed the door furtively to leave, Song Yuan grimaced, and she sneezed as soon as she got up from sleepiness.

Got~ I can't sleep.

Song Yuan reluctantly got up, and after washing up, he became curious about the outside world. He went to open the window and saw that the eyes were all white, and the thick snow had piled up to halfway up the inn gate.

"It's snowing a lot." Song Yuan took a breath into his palms, and hurriedly closed the window and went downstairs.

Wei Yan is arranging for the guards to shovel the snow. Although they won't go out, there must be a way up and down, otherwise they will be trapped here, which is not safe.

They went out to shovel the snow, and it took less than half an hour to dig out a vacant lot. Someone was also arranged to clean up the opposite side, and they greeted the guards with a smile, even if the guards responded coldly, they didn't mind.

"Ninth Young Master, Ninth Young Master." A shout came from above his head. Through the thick snow wall, Song Yuan went up to the second floor and saw the person who was struggling in the snow. He was wearing the official uniform of the yamen and helped him up Holding on to his hat, he shouted: "The third master will be here soon, please come to the government office and wait for the ninth son."

Song Yuan looked at the thick snow, turned his head and left: "No."

Does such a thick snow allow her to climb out?And let her wait before the people arrive, how can Song Zhu have such a big meeting?

Now he is busy coming back to argue in front of Huo Ying. Even if he goes, he may not be able to see him in time, and he may be dragged by him to seek mercy from Huo Ying, causing a lot of trouble for no reason.

If you don't go, she won't go.

Wei Yan understood, and immediately shouted to the outside: "It's cold, it's hard to walk, the third son must have something to discuss with Mr. Huo, so you won't make trouble, and wait for the third son to finish the matter, and then the son will bother you." , Between brothers, it doesn’t hurt to delay for a few days.”

This is really beautiful, Song Yuan applauded him from the side.

"That man's expression is so ugly, hahaha." Wei Yan stood in front of the window smiling like an old hen about to lay eggs.

Song Yuan didn't have time to care whether he wanted to lay eggs or not, and he didn't have time to see the angry official, so he went back to his room and sat quietly by the charcoal basin to keep warm.

It was because of Huo Ying's sudden meddling that Song Zhu came back so quickly, so should he also hand over the handover of witnesses to Huo Ying?He is Tingwei, and it is reasonable to find out the affairs of Chengyang County by the way when thoroughly investigating the old case. Song Zhu dare not refuse to give witnesses if he wants witnesses. With the witnesses in Huo Ying's hands, he can go directly to the imperial court to reverse the case.

Just like what Song Chun said, this case will only anger Emperor Taikang, making him feel that others will laugh at him for being ignorant, and will not severely punish the prince for slapping himself in the face, but in this way, he not only sold Liang He's face, Get rid of potential hidden dangers for him?At least in Liang He's view, he was doing things for him.

After thinking about these things clearly, Song Yuan also had a sense in his heart.

It was nightfall and Song Yuan waited for the definite news that Song Zhu had entered the city, and went to the yamen to find Huo Ying non-stop.

Except for remote places, the city will arrange people to shovel snow, even if that is the case, the snow will pile up quickly.

Song Zhu walked in with one foot deep and one foot shallow. The heavy armor on his body allowed him to step into deep snow pits with every step. The eyebrows and eyes made him a little more evil.

Striding into the door, his eyes wandered around the room, and then fell on Huo Ying. He was sitting upright reading a book, his back straight, and he looked up unhurriedly when he noticed the person coming. Can't sit still.

Ting Wei was ranked among the nine ministers, and Song Zhu was not qualified enough for him to stand up and greet him.

"Lord Huo." Song Zhu squeezed out a smile, "I'm really sorry to bother you at such a late hour."

Huo Ying nodded slightly: "Young master, please sit down."

Song Zhu sat down in front of him, across the table, forced a smile to deal with the dissatisfaction in his heart: "I don't know why Mr. Huo asked me to hurry back."

"It was because of the murder case in the restaurant." Huo Ying gave a confession from the side: "According to the prisoner, it was the third son who instructed them to provoke the ninth son, to blame the man who killed the fish and put the blame on the ninth son, so that the ninth son was forced to die on his back." The crime, I invite the third son back to talk about it in detail."

Looking at the pile of bloody confessions in front of him, Song Zhu sneered: "Yuan'er is my own younger brother, how could I treat him like this? My Zhongshan Palace has never engaged in brotherly killing, these people must be biting maliciously." .”
