After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness
Chapter 184: Furious, Picking Up the Cat
In Xiao Yu's courtyard, after hearing Xiao Xuetang's explanation of the whole story, Young Master Xiao showed a rare trace of embarrassment on his face...
"So you were talking about Southern Xinjiang. I thought..."
Xiao Xuetang and Lin Xun were sitting opposite Xiao Yu. Hearing this, Xiao Xuetang asked in confusion, "What do you think?"
Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Xuetang who had a confused expression, and Lin Xun who was sitting silently beside him, and his fox eyes narrowed slightly.
He seemed to have misunderstood something.
Since Xiao Xuetang still hadn't figured it out and didn't know what Lin Xun was thinking, Xiao Yu naturally wouldn't be the one to expose it, and said directly and decisively: "I'm talking about the Southern Xinjiang spies!"
"I traveled to southern Xinjiang with my uncle before, and I know that the people in southern Xinjiang have some common characteristics. They respect the five poisonous creatures. They plant five poisonous grasses in the back gardens of their homes to attract the five poisonous creatures, and there are also five poisonous beasts..."
Xiao Yu glanced at Lin Xun and said, "I heard that when His Royal Highness King Tianji was dealing with the Tianxuan Sect outside the Great Wall, he captured a Five Poison Beast and used it to identify the Southern Xinjiang people lurking among the Han people, and wiped out the Tianxuan Sect. However, the Five Poison Beasts usually live in deep mountains and old forests, and are very difficult to find."
I have to say that Xiao Yu is quite reliable when he should be reliable. He provided such an important clue as soon as he opened his mouth. It seems that Lin Xun has found the right person.
Lin Xun also briefly talked about the treasures presented by the Nanyi people during the reign of Emperor Wuzong. However, Lin Xun did not hide anything in front of Xiao Yu and omitted the part where King Tianji was involved.
During the later years of Emperor Wuzong's reign, the southern barbarians were eager to establish their presence in the capital.
Xiao Yu firmly believed in this.
In the previous life, Kyoto fell so quickly, the situation must have been set up long ago. At that time, Xiao Yu guessed that it would start with Emperor Huai Min, but he didn't expect it to start earlier than he thought!
Xiao Yu pondered for a while before speaking: "Since this matter started with Emperor Wuzong, perhaps we should start with some old ministers and noble families. I have been away from Kyoto for five years, but fortunately I still have a few good friends from noble families. Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best."
After all, the Yong'an Marquisate is a family of nobility, and Xiao Yu himself is easy-going and has many good friends, so his popularity is much better than Lin Xun's.
Xiao Xuetang pretended to drink tea, but in fact he was listening to their conversation with his ears perked up.
Xiao Yu noticed someone eavesdropping and said, "As a girl, you shouldn't get involved. The prince and I will take care of the affairs of Southern Xinjiang. Just stay at home and take care of your mother."
After hearing this, Lin Xun looked at Xiao Yu with some sympathy.
Before, Lin Xun had heard that Young Master Xiao was famous for his smooth dealings, so why did he become so dumbfounded when it came to matters concerning his family?
As expected, as soon as Xiao Yu finished speaking, Xiao Xuetang instantly became like a cat with its fur standing on end, sneering at Xiao Yu: "When will it be your turn to decide my affairs?"
Xiao Yu...
Xiao Xuetang stood up at this time, with a bad look on his face, and said to Xiao Yu: "Since Master Xiao has promised the prince to investigate the affairs of Southern Xinjiang, don't use your power for personal gain and deliberately shield certain people."
Xiao Yu's eyebrows jumped and he said, "Who can I protect?"
As he spoke, Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Xuetang hesitantly.
"Ye Jin!"
Xiao Xuetang said without hesitation.
Xiao Yu...
Xiao Yu no longer wanted to explain the problem with Ye Jin. But whether in the past life or this life, he owed Xiao Xuetang and failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a brother, so he silently took the blame from Xiao Xuetang.
Seeing that Xiao Yu didn't say anything, Xiao Xuetang assumed that he agreed. However, he had already said everything he needed to say today, and Xiao Xuetang was too lazy to stay here any longer, so he stood up and left.
"Xiao Xuetang, are you just leaving like this? The prince is still here, it's so rude of you to do this!"
Xiao Xuetang didn't even turn his head.
Xiao Yu sighed and said to Lin Xun, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Your Majesty."
Lin Xun said calmly, "Prince Xiao, there is no need to be so reserved."
Xiao Yu always felt that Lin Xun seemed to have something else in his words, and sure enough...
"Compared to Prince Xiao, I understand her character better, so I won't care about these red tapes."
Xiao Yu...
After a while, he took a breath and said to Lin Xun: "My Lord, you are of noble status, but Xuetang's personality is really not suitable for you."
Lin Xun glanced at him with a half-smile and said, "Prince Xiao, do your part."
Even though Lin Xun had a smile on his face, Xiao Yu still heard a warning from him. When he came to his senses, Lin Xun had already left, leaving him stamping his feet in anger...
What kind of evil fate is this!
"Ah!"
At this time, Xiao Xuetang, who was taking Bihen back to his yard, felt his nose itchy for some reason and sneezed several times.
Xiao Xuetang walked very fast in front, and Bihen could only follow behind. Seeing Xiao Xuetang's gloomy face, she guessed sharply: "Miss, did you quarrel with the prince again?"
Xiao Xuetang raised her eyebrows and was about to answer when she suddenly heard a few whimpering sounds.
Some look like kittens.
"Did you hear the cat meow?"
Xiao Xuetang asked Bihen.
Bi Hen shook her head and said, "The old lady dislikes long-haired animals the most. The back garden is close to Xuantang Courtyard, how could there be a cat?"
Xiao Xuetang made a gesture to Bihen to keep quiet, and looked in the direction of the sound. Sure enough, he found a dirty kitten in the cracks of the rockery.
It seemed that its hind legs were stuck by a rock and it struggled helplessly. It heard the footsteps of the master and servant and made threatening "grunting" sounds in its throat.
Bihen said: "Miss, it's so fierce!"
Xiao Xuetang said, walking quietly to its side and soothing it, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you, please don't scratch me."
She spoke in a gentle voice and approached cautiously.
It was not known whether it was because her comforting had worked, or because she did not sense any ill will from Xiao Xuetang. The kitten, which had been furry and grimacing, docilely let Xiao Xuetang lift it out of the crevice...
Qiyue waited in Litangju for most of the day. She saw Xiao Xuetang first send back a pile of scriptures and a food box. Then she saw that her young lady was wearing a brand new gauze dress before she went out, but came back wrinkled and dirty.
She felt a little helpless. Why did she feel that the young lady's personality was becoming more and more like when she was in the Xie family?
After Xiao Xuetang picked up the kitten, he checked its wounds. They were just some superficial injuries, luckily there were no broken bones.
The cat that was so fierce in Bihen just now was very cooperative now. When Xiao Xuetang wiped the dust off her body with a wet cloth and bandaged her wounds, she didn't even get angry, let alone stretch out her claws.
He is so well behaved.
After wiping the dirty kitten clean, I found that it was actually an extremely beautiful silver-striped tabby cat with big water-blue eyes and a wet pink nose. It looked extremely cute.
At this moment, it was licking Xiao Xuetang's fingers affectionately, as if it was hungry, or as if it was acting coquettishly.
The kitten's tongue has barbs, and my fingers feel a little itchy, but my heart is extremely soft.
Xiao Xuetang looked at those icy blue eyes and was startled...
There is a feeling of déjà vu.
