If this were true, Master Xia Jiu himself would find it very ridiculous.

But he was stubborn and refused to speak. It seemed that only doing so would make people think that his mother was not really at fault.

His mother didn't make such a big mistake, so it seems that he, the son, would not be so embarrassed. Yes, with so much shame and embarrassment, what he really resented in his heart was not necessarily his sister Xia Bihe, but more likely the person who put him in this situation.

He is his own mother, but he can't say anything to her or vent his resentment in front of her. In fact, he doesn't want to see her at all now. If possible, it would be better if there is no relationship at all between us.

But these are all delusions, he crawled out of her belly, this is a fact that can never be changed.

"Brother Feng, please stay. Everyone else should go back first." Xiadu Yushi waved his hand.

The people who were kneeling on the ground looked at each other, but Xia Bihe, who was still standing by the desk, squatted down without hesitation this time and said, "Granddaughter, please leave." Compared with before, she was actually cold now.

There is no emotion.

The Censor of Xiadu glanced at her, and then glanced at Young Master Xia Jiu. He sighed slightly in his heart. Some things cannot be made up for by apologizing, let alone the person who did something wrong. He didn't even say a word.

I dare say that the situation will naturally only get worse.

"Go." At the age of Xiadu Yushi, how can he not know that nothing can be forced? He can force his grandson to apologize, but he cannot force his granddaughter to accept it.

Xia Bihe left simply. She used to be cowardly and had only despair in her life. She couldn't see any bright colors and didn't know how to resist. But it didn't mean that there was really no resentment in her heart. She just knew that resentment was useless, so she hid it in her heart.

I don’t know where it went, but now, that resentment comes out bit by bit.

Xia Bihe wanted to let herself not hate. Everything had passed. The culprit had been punished. Don't hate. It would only make herself ugly and embarrassing. But she couldn't control it, especially when her good brother still said "That's right."

"She needs to stay away from her. If she can't see her, she won't feel so burning in her heart.

Xia Bihe quickly returned to her yard, ignored the maid, entered the room, closed the door, and shrank herself completely. There was no one else around, and she did not need to work hard to change herself and maintain what she thought she was.

The safest position.

I don't know how long it took before Xia Bihe relaxed a little and asked, "If Sister Xuan encountered such a thing, what would she do?" She would definitely handle it well, instead of being resentful like her and not having the courage to do so.

Let others know.

In the study, "Brother Feng, your fifth sister's mother was killed by your mother, did you know? I was selfish after all. For the reputation of the Xia family and for you two brothers and sisters, I did not kill her."

Let Kaiping Yin investigate and deal with it. Not only should you apologize to your fifth sister, but you should also apologize to her on behalf of your mother." The censor of Xiadu still had that gentle tone.

Young Master Xia Jiu stared at the Xiadu Censor with eyes as sharp as Tongling, "It's impossible, absolutely impossible, how could it be like this? I don't believe it, I don't believe it..."

"Go to the ancestral hall, kneel in front of your ancestors, and reflect carefully. I don't want to say anything else." The censor of Xiadu picked up the tea cup, paused, and put it back, "I agreed to her entering the Xia family.

The door, so I am also at fault for this matter. I have already apologized to my ancestors. Brother Feng remembers to kowtow two more times for my grandfather."

Young Master Xia Jiu knelt dumbly, maybe he had accepted this fact, as if he had lost his soul.

"When did you figure it out? When did you come out on your own? - Someone come and take Master Ninth to the ancestral hall."

The attendants who were guarding outside came in and helped Young Master Xia Jiu up. The young Master didn't resist, he just got up and followed him out like a puppet.

When Young Master Xia Jiu entered the ancestral hall, everyone else thought that everyone in their family was very angry, so they all shrank cautiously. Even if you still had objections to Xia Bihe, you didn't dare to show it anymore.

Xiaocao knew nothing about the situation in the Xia family. After returning home, she took the set of ruby ​​jewelry and asked her mother-in-law how to give Zhen Muyao a makeup gift.

If so, it is indeed a bit excessive, and it should be the share that Zhen Muyao's closer elders should give away.

The whole set was given away, and Han didn’t have any objection. She had money, and as long as her daughter was happy, she could afford it. But it wasn’t really a question of whether she could afford it, so Han just picked up two ruby ​​bracelets and said, "

That’s it, you don’t need to choose anything else. If you think it’s not good to take apart the whole set, just give the rest to her in the future.”

Gifts come and go, and there are many names. A set of twelve pieces is really nothing compared to a set of more than twenty or thirty pieces. If you take it apart, you can take two pieces at a time.

Just six times and that's it.

Xiaocao doesn't know much about these things, so it's always right to listen to your mother's opinions.

The wedding is on the tenth day of April, and it's only a few days away. However, the court has not been very peaceful recently.

King Dun started to take action on Jiangbei salt administration and filled in as much as he could, but if he couldn't fill it, it cost a lot, so he had to ask others to help him. However, those things that were closely related to him were not

There are many rich people who may be able to replenish their wealth if their family fortune is completely drained, but after that, the whole family, old and young, will have to drink the northwest wind.

Therefore, if you want to wipe things out, there are two ways, one is to borrow; the other is to ask for help.

The first method is that you have to pay it back after borrowing, and you may need interest. But there are not many people who can lend so much without causing extra trouble after borrowing.

King Dun chose the second option without hesitation. Not to mention that it was difficult to get help, but it also depended on who the person was. If they were just looking for money, those wealthy businessmen would undoubtedly be the best choice.

A daughter is fine. Although the reputation may not sound good, but with both wealth and wealth, it would be too shameful for this man to still chirp.

Maybe there are wealthy businessmen who have been planning for a long time. After getting such an opportunity, they can be said to have done it very quickly. They came to the door, got on the line, and "passed the door" in three days. To be honest, even if they sell things, they may not be able to do it.

So fast.

I was totally happy to post it, but I don’t know how the girl who posted it was feeling.

The one who is more aggrieved and angry is probably Princess Dun. She is just a merchant girl and does not even have the position of concubine. However, she is "kind" to Prince Dun, so she has to serve her well, at least for a short period of time.

Several other brothers of King Dun were not shaken out, but they could not do nothing. First of all, they tried every means to inquire from Kaiping Wei to see how much was in the "account book". However, no matter what you do, Kaiping

Wei refused to let go, making all the princes furious.

As for the people in Kaipingwei, they are dumb people eating coptis. The matter is not handled by them at all. They have never seen the account books or anything like that. Where can I show them to them? The people in Kaipingwei are also very resentful, okay?

good.

Unable to do so, they simply followed King Dun's advice in the end, even though they knew very well that compared to King Dun, they should only be able to do more and not less. Compared to King Dun, their existing helpers were much more powerful, and they would not fall into the same trap.

The point where King Dun "sold himself".

King Dun clearly got benefits, but in the end he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Another major issue is probably the issue of the commander-in-chief of Northern Xinjiang.

Starting from the grandfather of Mu Bei, the current king of Dingbei, the commander-in-chief of Northern Xinjiang is the Mu family, which has not changed.

The title "Dingbei King" originally came from the Dingbei Army, but over time, uninformed people thought that it was because of the existence of Dingbei King that the defenders of Northern Xinjiang were called the Dingbei Army.

Even if the Prince of Dingbei County has never had any selfish motives for decades, the people of Northern Xinjiang may only know about King Dingbei and not the emperor. Such a situation seriously hurts Mu Bei, and there is no other way.

When a member of the Mu family can take over, it will be difficult for anyone else to take over the Dingbei Army.

However, being difficult to take over does not mean that you don’t want it. For any general, especially the few governors who are currently staying in the imperial city, this is a great opportunity. Since there can’t be one Dingbei King, why can’t there be a second one?

,Although it is more likely to include Northern Xinjiang within the scope of wheel defense, how can we be willing to do so without giving it a try.

You know, even when the country was founded, there was no king with a different surname. However, this also indirectly illustrates the importance of Northern Xinjiang. In such an important place, it is actually unwise to change the coach frequently.

Everyone wants to swallow such a piece of fat, but those who are ambitious for the throne do not want to let it go. Those who are fighting openly and secretly want to support people from their own faction.

Therefore, it is really quite non-stop, you come and I tear each other apart.

Of course, there are also people who want to take the path of King of the North. He guards Northern Xinjiang and knows the situation in Northern Xinjiang best. As for the candidate to take over as the commander-in-chief, he may be able to influence the emperor's decision-making.

Perhaps the old concubine had anticipated this situation from the very beginning, so she still used the excuse that King Dingbei was seriously injured to recuperate, and thanked guests behind closed doors. The Dingbei County Prince's Mansion was still like an iron bucket, with nowhere to speak.

Most of the people who escorted Mu Bei back were ordinary soldiers, belonging to his personal guards. The only general was also his deputy general. His influence in the Dingbei Army was also not small. He was bound to return to Northern Xinjiang.

of.

Regarding the new commander-in-chief of the Dingbei Army, the deputy general also mentioned it to Mu Bei. However, Mu Bei did not comment on this and told him, "That is a matter for the emperor to decide. No matter who it is, you need to assist him and defend the north."

The territory must not be allowed to be invaded by enemy invaders."

The deputy general wiped his face and remained silent for an unknown amount of time. "My lord, is it possible for you to return to Northern Xinjiang?"

"I don't know. First of all, it depends on the recovery of the body. Even if it recovers to be no different from ordinary people, then it also depends on the emperor's wishes."

The other borders of the Qi Dynasty are all guarded by governors. Only in the northern border there is a king with a different surname, who is almost a private soldier. As a high-ranking person, probably no one can rest assured. This time, such an upright person

Chances are, even if he recovers, the emperor can stop him by saying that the Mu family has sacrificed too much to pray for the emperor, and I feel ashamed, and the world will praise him for his kindness.

When Mu Bei initially had hope of recovery, he had thought about it with such joy, but now he no longer thinks about it.

After a lot of overt and covert fighting, Emperor Xuanren finally made the final decision and it fell on Pingjin Hou.

This is quite expected. First of all, Pingjin Hou is fifty years old and should be considered the oldest among the ten governors. The next round of defense will be next year. He is going to a place that has not happened for many years.

In a place where the war is going on, it is better to let him relax for three years than to guard the border. Now it can be said that it is a 180-degree turn, and he actually wants to go to the northern Xinjiang where the war is the most. It should be noted that the Marquis of Pingjin has left behind in his early years.

It's not a bad thing for him to be hurt secretly.

Secondly, the Marquis of Pingjin has nothing to do with the princes. The only ones who can barely have a relationship are the Marquis of Pingjin and Ming Zeyue's mother. They are cousins ​​a few floors apart. This is nothing, but if someone insists on establishing a relationship,

If so, you still won't be able to run away.

Let's not talk about how Pingjin Hou reacted to people outside. At this time, Pingjin Hou's wife was not fully recovered, and her condition worsened.

However, Northern Xinjiang is not peaceful and cannot be left without a commander for a long time. Therefore, the Marquis of Pingjin needs to set off for Northern Xinjiang as soon as possible.

Those who escorted Mu Bei back will accompany him.

Wen Renying was not very stable in her heart. In her last life, King Dingbei had not returned to the imperial city at this time, and the final commander-in-chief of Northern Xinjiang was not the Marquis of Pingjin. Today, many things have changed, really

It can no longer be connected with the previous life.

Because of Pingjin Hou's incident, Mrs. Pingjin Hou's condition has worsened, and the fatal illness in her body may break out at any time. Han and Xiaocao have already discussed when to go to Pingjin Hou's mansion to have a look.

When Wen Renying learned about this situation, she couldn't help but clenched her fists. Was her engagement with Hua Baichen going to be terminated in advance?

Cheng Wenzheng had returned to his hometown after the imperial examination. However, Wen Renying had inquired before and there seemed to be no news from Kaiping Prefecture Yin's family. Wen Renying was not sure whether something went wrong or if it was just in private.

I have contacted him, but we have to wait for Cheng Wenzheng to come back for more details.

She obviously didn't need to do anything, but she couldn't help but feel nervous.

As for whether I have the slightest memory of Hua Baichen, to be honest, I really don’t.

If the engagement with Hua Baichen can be terminated before Cheng Wenzheng gets engaged, then it might be possible to get engaged directly with Cheng Wenzheng, without all the messy things in the middle, which would be great.

I'm just afraid that things won't go so smoothly.

Wen Renying was in a state of despair for a while, then put all these things behind him and took it one step at a time, doing whatever he had to do.

Now, she is going to Pingjin Marquis Mansion with her mother and fourth sister.
