Chapter 95 The follow-up to a wave of operations

Soon, Xie Zhang learned that the last time Xie Ying went out was during the Ghost Festival, to attend Du Yunrongs banquet. It seemed that the princess was cheated when she gave her a hard time at the banquet.

The specific details havent been found out yet, but its enough for him to understand.

Xie Zhang did not question his sister, but went directly to the Marquis of Dingbei.

Dingbeihou immediately ordered people to ground Xie Ying without asking.

Xie Ying:

When people sit at home, disaster comes from heaven.

Ever since the Hungry Ghost Festival, she had been embarrassed and had never left the house before being suddenly grounded.

Xie Ying was almost furious to death, and hurriedly went to find her mother, only to learn that it was her father's intention.

At this moment, Xie Ying was sluggish.

Mrs. Xie Er asked: "Have you done anything recently?"

"No! I haven't left the house since the Ghost Festival." Xie Ying felt extremely aggrieved.

Its just that knowing a daughter is better than a mother.

Mrs. Xie Er thought that after her daughter went to attend the banquet on the Ghost Festival, she was in a bad mood when she came back. "What happened on the Ghost Festival? Were you also involved in the subsequent attack on the princess?"

"I didn't. After the banquet was over, I went back home." Xie Ying felt deeply wronged.

She lost a sum of money that day and lost a lot of face, so she didn't go swimming in the lake with the little sisters. She made an excuse and went home. Therefore, she did not participate in what happened to Du Yunrong and others later.

Mrs. Xie Er asked: "What about the banquet? Are you causing trouble for the princess again?"

"What kind of trouble could she have? She was more popular than anyone else at the banquet." Xie Ying really didn't think Du Wan had lost anything, "On the contrary, it was me who lost a thousand taels of silver."

Mrs. Xie Er was stunned, "What's going on?"

"this-"

Xie Ying made a mistake and immediately shut up.

You can't talk about what happened at the banquet. It would be even more shameless to spread the word.

No matter how Mrs. Xie asked next, Xie Ying would not say what happened. Madam Xie was so angry that she asked, "Ying'er, do you know why our second wife inherited the title?"

My grandfather and uncles family died in the war, otherwise it would be our familys turn to take advantage. Xie Ying said nonchalantly.

Thirteen years ago, the Xie family was originally a sect with four generals, enjoying great success.

Looking at the entire capital, who can produce four generals from one family?

However, a neighboring country suddenly invaded and launched a war. The soldiers of the Qin State fought one after another, and more than 90% of them died in the battle. The four generals of the Xie family, as pioneer generals, also died for their country.

In the war that year, the Qin Kingdom finally won, but it was a tragic victory, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers died.

The smoke is thick and the lives are in ruins.

A cloud of sadness enveloped the entire Qin Kingdom. To this day, the aftermath of the war is still felt.

The emperor rewarded his father for his merits after the war, and Xie Yuan, who stayed in the capital, inherited his father's title and was granted the title of Marquis of Dingbei.

Xie Ying was only one year old at that time. She was ignorant and couldn't remember things, so she didn't have deep feelings.

"Snapped!"

Mrs. Xie Er slapped her daughter in the face.

Xie Ying looked at her mother who had always loved her in shock.

Mrs. Xie Er said angrily: "Is it because I indulge you too much that you dare to be disrespectful to the ancestors who died in the battle?"

This time, she really regretted it.

She gave birth to Zhang'er and Ying'er throughout her life. Her son had been away from home for many years, which allowed her to dote on her daughter, but she did not expect to spoil her child.

Mrs. Xie Er said with determination: "Go back to your yard. You are not allowed to take a step without your father's words."

Mother! You

"go out!"

Xie Ying originally wanted to lose her temper, but when she saw her mother's cold eyes, she was immediately frightened. Until he was dragged back to the yard by his servants, he was still in a daze and did not come back to his senses.

At this time. The Xie family father and son were checking the secret letter in the secret room.

Hour Dingbei gave his daughter a grounding order and left her alone.

Zhanger, do you know what the Imperial City Secretarys investigation into your sister means?

Lets investigate the people behind the Imperial City Department.

You mean Pei Hao?

Nine times out of ten, its him. Xie Zhang said calmly.

Pei Hao's move is quite intriguing, and it doesn't seem like something Pei Hao would do. He suddenly remembered that innocent little girl who once looked at him with bright eyes.

But for some reason, he didn't want to say her name. It's as if this name carries some taboo.

But he didn't say anything, Dingbei Hou also guessed the idea, "Pei Hao is doing it for the princess."

"Um."

Xie Zhang was quiet.

The father and son chatted for a while.

Decided to wait and see for the time being.

Dingbeihou asked: "Why did Pei Hao suddenly become interested in the princess?"

"Last time Pei Hao was ambushed, the princess was with him. After experiencing life and death, the relationship will naturally be different." Xie Zhang seemed to not want to talk about this topic anymore, "Father, since the mine was lost, it has had a great impact on our plans. This Yanmen incident has caused us a lot of losses, how can we fill the vacancy?"

My father will find a way.

Dingbei Hou was worried that the plan would change again. "What I'm most worried about at this time is, will Pei Hao have any influence on us in the future?"

"He is a smart man." Xie Zhang never thought of touching Pei Hao. The plan was to bypass the Zhenguo Palace. The two families were both military commanders and had some friendship from their ancestors. More than ten years later, the two families The development is different, but the experiences are similar.

The Xie family hated this corrupt court.

He didn't believe that the Pei family didn't hate him. The Duke of Zhen was still living in seclusion.

The two of them were chatting, and their conversation ended up at Zhuangzi in the suburbs.

Dingbei Hou said: "The path your uncle took last time was Pei Hao's. He took away a dowry from your mother, Zhuangzi, from your uncle."

Change away? Xie Zhang was confused. He had heard his mother mention this before.

"I exchanged him for a similar Zhuangzi. I didn't take advantage of your uncle at all, but your uncle took a big advantage." Dingbeihou learned about this at that time, and his first thought was to suspect that Zhuangzi had something wrong, and secretly sent someone to Stare.

Xie Zhang wondered: "Then why did he go to such trouble to change to Zhuangzi?"

I gave it to the princess as a congratulatory gift. It is said that the little princess wants to eat peaches and wants a peach forest.

Does father believe this statement?

"I don't believe it. The little princess has no shortage of peaches to eat. But Zhuangzi is indeed taken over by people from the princess's house. I sent people to monitor it for so long, but nothing unusual was found. The little princess seemed to have forgotten the existence of this Zhuangzi. "

Its possible that the princess wanted to do this on a whim.

Xie Zhang thought of the innocent and straightforward little **** the Hungry Ghost Festival, and gradually lowered his eyelids, covering his deep eyes and said, "The little girl's thoughts are always the same. Today she likes this, but she may not like it tomorrow. We are here After thinking about it over and over again, maybe its all false.

Dingbeihou thought for a while and said, "What you said makes sense. Then withdraw the people."

"Um."

Where is your third cousin

Ive made arrangements.

Its good that theres no danger.

"As long as he doesn't go out without permission, he'll be fine."
