After signing, it is not immediately possible to meet people.

It's still early now, if you stay here and wait for Brother Jin to come home from school to meet, I'm afraid you will have to wait for several hours.But whether it is Jia Min and Fu Li, or Wei Yan and Lin Ruhai, the relationship between each other is awkward enough, just sitting in the same room with each other, no one will feel uncomfortable.

So soon, Lin Ruhai asked someone to invite Jia Min out, saying that he was leaving Dingwei Hou Mansion.

Jia Min was still a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he knew the reason. He couldn't help pursing his lips and showing a faint smile, and then got up to say goodbye to Fu Li.

Fu Li got up to see him off, thinking that Jia Min really had a deep affection for Lin Ruhai.

Just looking at Jia Min's paleness and sickness that couldn't be concealed even with heavy makeup, and the somewhat lifeless eyes, he couldn't help asking: "Is Mrs. Lin still in good health? Why don't you go to the imperial physician?" "

With Lin Ruhai's current official position, it would be very easy for him to enter the palace to invite the imperial physician with a famous card.

Jia Min shook her head, with a bit of bitterness on the corner of her mouth: "Thank you Madam Hou for your concern, but I have already invited you. The imperial doctor looked at it and said that it was a serious injury before, but now I am too worried..." I am afraid it will not get better up.

In fact, she couldn't figure it out, because she was only a daughter like Daiyu, and the son before was just a concubine, and she didn't have a deep relationship with her.If the Lin family had no other hope after the child left, she might really "worry too much" and drag herself to death in the end.

But now, isn't there a Brother Jin?

For the sake of her daughter, she has been in good condition for the past year, and she is always paying attention to taking care of her body. It stands to reason that she should have recovered by now.Even if it doesn't heal, it should get better.In the half a year after she came back from Huaiyang after learning the news, her condition seemed to have really improved. For this reason, she even specially invited several imperial physicians and doctors to take the pulse separately to see if their diagnosis results were all the same. The same, so as not to rejoice in vain.

Of course the result is the same, every doctor is saying that her condition has begun to improve, as long as she rests slowly, she will definitely recover.

But half a year later, except that she would receive the book from the master from Huaiyang for ten days and a half, and then go out to the Wei family to learn how to give the book to brother Jin, she almost never went out and spent the whole day resting at home. Even if she wanted to reminisce about the past with the handkerchiefs she had handed over before, she would only invite people to the Lin family.Jia Min's behavior pattern is completely the same as it was half a year ago, and her mood is even better than before because her relationship with Brother Jin has eased, but her body suddenly took a turn for the worse and became worse and worse.

A few days ago, the imperial doctor came to the door. Hearing his tone, it seemed that he was not well.

Jia Min was in a daze, she had no idea what was going on.Jia Min even suspected that some concubines in the house were doing something wrong, so she even turned her house upside down, but found nothing.

Things have come to this point, what else can she do?Can only accept fate.

Fu Li didn't know the inside story, and only thought that Jia Min had other unspeakable secrets.He also thought that if Jia Min was gone, Lin Ruhai, who already had hope, might marry another woman who didn't know her background, so he said with a smile: "Mrs. Lin should take care of herself. If something happens to you , it will not have much impact on Mrs. Lin's married life. When the new wife comes in, if she has a bad temper, she will become a man who has slept with you and beats your baby."

Jia Min: "!!!"

When did Jia Min hear such vulgar words?But when I think about it carefully, I feel that what Fu Li said is really normal, and it is very likely to happen.Thinking about her own body, she felt a little dazed.

Jia Min didn't care what Fu Li said about the man who slept with her. After all, even if she didn't die, wouldn't there be several concubines in the house?Whether the new wife comes in or not has nothing to do with her.But Fu Li raised the possibility that the new wife would abuse her daughter, but she completely kept it in mind.

Although he knew that the master would never let this kind of thing happen because of his love for Daiyu, but he is just a man who knows nothing about the affairs of the back house, so how can he guard against women's secret methods?

If her natal family is reliable, she can ask her mother to take Daiyu to her side to raise her. When the time comes, with her mother watching over her, even if a new wife comes in, it will not cause any hindrance to Daiyu.

But is her natal family reliable?

Jia Min's eyes were gloomy, thinking of the rift between herself and the Jia family, and thinking of her mother's plan to make her daughter and Baoyu's stubborn nephew who had no future at all, she couldn't accept such an approach.

If it's just being stubborn and doesn't like reading, she can barely accept it.

When he was dying, Jia Min couldn't hold anything else in his heart except the master and his daughter.If Jia Baoyu can treat Daiyu wholeheartedly, even Mrs. Wang, who has caused her so far, will not be unable to let go of her hatred.But can Jia Baoyu be sincere to her Daiyu?That is a dandy who hangs around in the inner circle all day long, saying that he feels sorry for his daughter, but he doesn't know that such an attitude of treating all women equally is the most sentimental and hurtful.

She didn't want her daughter to suffer like this.

Thinking of this, Jia Min's heart, which had already been ashamed, started beating violently again: She must live, so that she can take care of her daughter.

Seeing that Jia Min's whole body was suddenly in a state of blood, Fu Li was stunned for a moment, a little frightened: "Mrs. Lin, you are..."

She just casually said some "common sense" that modern people know. Jia Min, who grew up in the ancient environment where wives basically all remarry after death, should know better. Her words should not make Jia Min suddenly The situation has changed a lot, right?

How did Fu Li know that all the changes were just because Jia Min knew that her natal family was not reliable at all, and she couldn't be a backer for her only daughter after her death?

Jia Min just smiled at Fu Li and didn't explain too much: "Master has sent someone to call me a concubine, so I won't stay any longer, just leave now."

Fu Li stopped and didn't go any further.

Jia Min turned back and smiled at Fu Li, with a more sincere expression: "Thank you Madam Hou for reminding me this time, if I can survive this test, as long as Madam Hou has me to help you, just come to me, I will definitely help you." spare no effort."

Friedman paused, and chuckled: "Then I sincerely wish Mrs. Lin a long and healthy life, preferably a hundred years old."

Jia Min pursed her lips and smiled, and nodded at Fu Li.

Not long after, Wei Yan came in with someone: "How is it, how is your chat with Mrs. Lin?"

Fu Li smiled and patted the chair beside him, and let him sit next to him: "I have met Mrs. Lin several times, and I have made it clear in the previous conversations if I wanted to say anything. , Is there anything else to talk about this time? But you and Mr. Lin, have you made things clear? Did he agree to my conditions? "

Wei Yan looked at Fu Li, feeling narrow-minded, raised his eyebrows and smiled at her, "Guess if Mr. Lin agreed?"

Fu Li looked at him amusedly: "Why did Master Lin agree to me?" After a pause, she analyzed seriously, "Should he agree? After all, the Lin family doesn't say they want something from me, but they are very worried that I am in Brother Jin's house." If they really care about Brother Jin, they won't force it."

Wei Yan laughed loudly: "It seems that our husband and wife have the same ideas."

As he spoke, he took out a contract from his pocket and handed it to Fu Li, "Things in this world are always changing and uncertain, and it is just a verbal agreement, which is really not binding. Master Lin promised you After meeting the conditions, I wrote the contract on the spot and asked him to sign it."

Fu Li was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "No way, Mr. Lin actually signed it?"

She took the deed with a smile, and then carefully read the content on it, and laughed even more happily after reading it.

The above did not have too many harsh conditions, but they emphasized over and over again that they could only contact Brother Jin in person and not use other methods to force Brother Jin to return to the Lin family.

"I didn't expect you to have such a strong sense of the law. When things come to an end, you can still remember to ask Mr. Lin to sign a contract as a guarantee." Fu Li couldn't help laughing, "Their literati value face the most. With such a contract in hand, even if the Lin family repents in the future, I can make a scene known to the world, and then let the world see the face of the Lin family, and then the Lin family will be ashamed."

Seeing her smiling happily, Wei Yan also had a smile in his eyes: "Don't you think I've overdone it?"

Fu Li glanced at him, couldn't help but raised his hand and gave him a thumbs up: "It may be too much for the Lin family, but it is the best protection for me and Brother Jin. The Lin family may think that you You have done too much, and even think you are unreasonable, but as a vested interest, why do you think you are too much? On the contrary, I think you have done a great job, please continue to maintain it in the future!"

As he spoke, he leaned directly towards Wei Yan's face and smacked.

Wei Yan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "Master Ben Hou gave up his face to get back such a deed, and it seems worthwhile for a capable wife to throw himself into his arms."

After Fu Li collected the deed, he turned his head to look at Wei Yan, got up and walked in front of him in a short while, then leaned down and leaned in front of his eyes: "If Ming Jing likes me to take the initiative, as a wife, I'm still willing to obey. I don't know if Hou Ye can accept the kindness of my beauty."

Wei Yan was stunned for a moment, his ears turned red at first, and soon he came back to his senses. After realizing that he was being molested, he raised his hand and pulled him into his arms: "If my husband can't bear the beauty of my wife, Wouldn't it make people laugh if it spread? Since Madam is worried, let's immediately try to see if I can accept Madam's beauty as a husband."

As he said that, he picked him up and wanted to go to the back room.

Fu Li was startled instead, and quickly patted him on the shoulder, telling him to put himself down: "It's broad daylight, what are you trying to do?"

Wei Yan didn't really intend to promiscuously, so he obediently put him down.It's just that the expression is a bit malicious, "Isn't it just what Madam said, I want you to experience it?"

After Fu Li stepped on the ground, he regained his composure. After hearing this, he couldn't help raising his head and glaring at him.

Wei Yan suddenly laughed: "Okay, okay, I won't joke anymore."

The two sat in the room for a while, and soon felt that they were too bored to stay.

Fu Li thought that since Wei Yan had asked for leave today, the two of them might as well go out shopping together, which could barely be regarded as a date between husband and wife.

As a woman, traveling in ancient times is really inconvenient. Every time I go out, I have to take a carriage. I can only get off the car when I get to the place. When I enter the shop, I have to always pay attention to whether there are other people coming in. If a man comes in, I have to find ways to avoid it. ...

These many inconveniences made Fu Li lose any interest in shopping, an activity that is suitable for all ages in modern times.

Wei Yan is also busy, except when he goes home for a break or when he rarely takes a bath, he has no chance to spend time alone with Fu Li to connect with each other.It just so happened that the two old people went out as guests today, and the two children were in school, and there were only the husband and wife in the house, so it was a good opportunity to travel.

And with Wei Yan accompanying him, Fu Li's shopping is much more convenient.

Thinking in this way, Fu Li told Wei Yan his thoughts.

Wei Yan had never gone shopping with a woman before, so he naturally didn't know how scary it would be for a woman to go shopping, so he nodded and agreed without any hesitation.

The two changed their clothes for going out, then got into the carriage and went to Zhou Gong's hot pot restaurant.

After staying in the store for a while and confirming that nothing else happened, the two left the hot pot restaurant together and started shopping on the street.

Fu Li has a cheerful and straightforward personality, and even likes fiery red and bright colors, but according to the standards of this era, a woman like her who is married and a mother should dress more solemnly.

So when she goes to the street, she always picks out a lot of clothes and jewelry that she likes first, and then picks out a few that match her current status.

Occasionally, he would turn around and ask Wei Yan if he needed anything.

It's not that Fu Li didn't consider his family when he bought things, but that the Dingweihou's family has a big business, and there are many craftsmen in the mansion, whether it's clothes or jewelry, the mansion has everything.What's more, the quality of the house's production is better, and the materials are more scarce, which is more in line with the identities of Wei Yan and others.

Fu Li is now just going out for shopping, and he is not picky about the materials used for these clothes, jewelry, etc., so he buys so many things, but Wei Yan and others grew up in the nest of wealth and wealth, almost every day. If they rashly brought back the things they bought outside, they might not feel comfortable using them.If she insists on wearing it on herself regardless of her own feelings because she thinks it is Fu Li's wish, then she will be guilty.

So apart from buying a few pieces of jewelry for the old lady, two antiques for the old man, and a copy of the Four Treasures of the Study for Brother Jing and Brother Lan, Fu Li didn't buy anything else.

Wei Yan has endured hardships, but he has never paid much attention to dressing, and he always refuses Fu Li's questions.

He can't run out of clothes and other things at home, so he doesn't need to buy some more outside.

After a few times, Fu Li simply stopped asking him, but when he handed over the things he bought to Wei Yan, his strength would always be a little stronger.

Wei Yan accepted Fu Li's petty temper well, and found it quite amusing.

Wei Yan has practiced martial arts since he was a child, so he has great strength and good endurance, not to mention there are several maids and servants following him, so even though Fu Li bought a lot of things, he doesn't feel tired, but he always feels that the shopping has been going on for a long time. It is inevitable that you will feel a little helpless if you can't get anywhere.

But he is better than those modern men in that he knows how to be considerate of his wife.

Wei Yan also knew that it was rare for Fu Li to go out shopping so happily, so even though he felt bored, he never complained.It's just that sometimes when Fu Li pays for a product that she doesn't like very much, she will subconsciously remind her to change it for something she really likes.

Fu Li liked Wei Yan's attitude quite a bit, and occasionally would obediently change a product, but most of the time, she would only choose

Both!

It's not that she doesn't have money, why doesn't she buy everything she likes?Even if you don't need it, you can give it to someone close to you, or use it as a reward for your servants, it won't be wasted anyway.

When shopping, what I enjoy is the fun of buying, buying, and buying. As for whether the products I buy are useful for me, I don’t care so much.

The group went shopping all the way, and soon walked out of the street where the hot pot restaurant is located.

At the intersection, Fu Li turned to look at Wei Yan: "Are you tired? If so, let's rest for a while and continue later."

Wei Yan: "..."

He was a little helpless, but he nodded simply.

After walking for so long and carrying things for so long, Wei Yan didn't feel tired, but the servants behind him probably couldn't take it anymore.

So the two found a teahouse and went in together.

With nothing in hand, Fu Li consciously stepped forward and booked a room on the second floor.

Drinking the good tea that you can't drink on weekdays, and eating the usual snacks that you can't bear to buy, the servants who were a little tired suddenly rejuvenated, and all of them were flushed, as if they could fight another ten streets.

Fu Li looked amused, and was about to say a few jokes, when he heard the sound of gongs and drums playing outside.

Wei Yan was sitting by the window, and when he heard the sound, he looked out the window, and he saw a handsome man riding a tall horse passing downstairs, followed by a sedan chair, the line was not too long, but look at the roadside Wei Yan couldn't help feeling a little strange about the excited crowd watching and the groom's unusual demeanor.

He told Fu Li about this and successfully aroused her curiosity.

Fu Li turned and looked at the maid behind him: "Dong Chun Dong Xia, you two go downstairs together and ask Xiao Er, which family is the one getting married today."

Dong Xia hurriedly got up: "Madam, wait first, the servants will come as soon as they go."

Holding the pastry, Dongchun seemed to be hesitant, but he quickly put down the pastry and followed Dongxia and left the room.

The two went downstairs together to find Xiao Er to inquire about the news. After a while, there was a sound of footsteps at the door. After opening the door, Dong Xia and Dong Chun walked in hesitantly.

Dongchun spoke first: "Madam, the status of the newlyweds who got married today is indeed somewhat special."

Seeing Dongchun hesitate, Fu Li became more and more curious: "Who is it that made you show such a embarrassed expression?"

Dongxia paused, turned to look at Dongchun, who seemed a little scared, and answered cautiously: "Mrs. Hui, the newlyweds who got married today are Jia Lian, the eldest son of the Rongguo Mansion, who was confiscated a long time ago, and the queen's wife, the eldest son of the Wang family. The two newlyweds grew up together. They are serious childhood sweethearts and have a very good relationship. Before the two families had an accident, the Jia and Wang family had already engaged the two of them. The original wedding date was half a year ago, but at that time the two families had an accident Not long after, the matter was put on hold, and now half a year has passed, and the original matter has subsided, and the two families want to take the opportunity to arrange the happy event, so as to avoid bad luck."

Fu Li was stunned for a moment, Jia Lian and Wang's daughter?This Wang's daughter should be Wang Xifeng, Wang Ziteng's niece, right?

Thinking that it was a rare trip out, he bumped into Jia Lian to welcome her.

wrong……

Fu Li turned his head to look at Wei Yan: "If today is the wedding day of Jia Lian, Wang Xi and Wang's daughter, why would Master Lin and his wife come to visit our house early in the morning? As Jia Lian's aunt, Mrs. Why didn't you go to Jia's house?"

If you want to ask about the relationship between the court and the court, Wei Yan can still speak clearly and logically, but the four major families have all been ransacked, and those who can take care of things have also been exiled. The two families have completely declined, so how can Wei Yan pay attention to these two? News from home?

So after hearing Fu Li's question, he could only shake his head to express his ignorance.

Dongxia opened her mouth, as if she knew the answer to this question, but she was worried that Wei Yan would lose face if she spoke, so she hesitated for a while.

Dongchun next to him looked at Dongxia with a look of admiration: She said why Dongxia had to pester Xiaoer before, and even took out the money she had saved so hard to bribe Xiaoer, and asked the matter over and over again. clearly understand.It turned out to be because of this...

Fu Li noticed the movements of his two servant girls, realized something, raised his hand and stabbed Wei Yan in the ribs, motioning him to speak.

Wei Yan shook his head helplessly, and said, "If you know the answer to this question, just say it, don't worry about me."

Dong Xia glanced at Fu Li again, and after getting permission, he explained: "From what Xiao Er said, it seems that Mrs. Lin has some grievances with the Wang family, and she doesn't want her nephew to marry the Wang family's daughter. It's just that Because Jia Lian grew up with the bride and children, she had a very deep relationship, so she insisted on marrying. The old lady of the Jia family couldn't hold back her grandson, and she didn't want to offend the Wang family by retiring, so she nodded and agreed to the marriage. .”

"But Mrs. Lin was very displeased with Wang's daughter. When she learned that the Jia family insisted on marrying someone into the family, she put down her words on the spot. She would not give a gift when they got married."

Fu Li opened his mouth, and didn't know whether to lament the Jia family's big heart for marrying Wang Xifeng at the risk of offending Jia Min, or to lament Jia Lian's deep love for Wang Xifeng.

But thinking of what happened to Wang Xifeng during this marriage in the original book, she simply shut up.

Wei Yan didn't care about such small things, but laughed at the news revealed by Dongxia's words: "This old lady from the Jia family is really wicked, she has reached this point, and she still wants to hold a group with the Wang family. Watching and helping each other, I am not afraid of being known by the emperor and causing disgust."

Emperor Yonghe hated this kind of clique formation and selfishness the most. Even when he seized the throne, the ministers he wooed were the fewest among all the princes, and each of them was carefully selected. for the welfare.

He already hated the four kings and eight princes and others, and he even sneered at the four big families who were making troubles in Jinling. If he knew that these people had all been ransacked and remained restless, many troubles would happen again.

Fu Li is still somewhat curious about the fairy concubine in the original book, but if she and Wei Yan really go to the gate of Jia's house on such a happy day like today, they will probably be driven away by Jia's family as a scourge.Who made Wei Yan the leading general who took the Rongguo Mansion upside down?

What's more, even if they came to the door today, they would not have the chance to see the bride's face.

Fu Li only sighed, then put aside such thoughts, and turned to look at Wei Yan: "The Jia family and the Wang family have reached this point, even if they still hold together, it's nothing worth caring about? The emperor really will care?"

Wei Yan raised his eyebrows: "Although the four major families are gone, nearly half of the four kings and eight kilometers remain."

The so-called four kings and eight princes are talking about the four kings with different surnames, including King Beijing, King Nan'an, King Dongping, and King Xining, who made great contributions when they accompanied Emperor Taizu to fight the world. Fuhezhen, Li, Qi, Zhi, Xiu, and Shan, a total of eight princes.

Now that Rongning and Ningfu have an accident, the families of the other six dukes' residences have no promising children, so they were liquidated together with the Jia family before.

However, the four kings with different surnames, because of their hard work and good reputation among the people, and most importantly, their high titles, made Emperor Yonghe, who had just ascended the throne at that time, tied his hands and feet, and failed to take the opportunity to pull out these four families together.

But seeing that the Hachigong on the side of the four kings and eight kilometers is gone, don't the other four kings with different surnames not realize the danger is coming?After that, the four kings with different surnames immediately tried to clean up the servants in the mansion. After paying back the debt owed by the court, they couldn't wait to sweep up some criminal evidence, and waited for Emperor Yonghe to calm down before trying to arrest him. With the help of the four kings with different surnames, they only got some trivial evidence.

For such a trivial matter, you can't directly ransack someone's house. Emperor Yonghe can only lower his title one level lightly, changing him from a prince to a county prince, and then he can't do anything else.

Emperor Yonghe has always been brooding about this.

Not to mention, he didn't forget the eight mansions that were closest to the four kings with different surnames, of course including the Jia family.

Therefore, if the news that the Jia family "will never die" and must marry Wang's daughter reaches the ears of Emperor Yonghe, Emperor Yonghe may really be angry and do something to the Jia family.

Who made them, the emperor, be so narrow-minded towards such national thieves and ghosts?

Thinking of Emperor Yonghe's temper, Wei Yan couldn't help laughing.

Fu Li didn't care, but turned around and asked Dongxia: "Where is the Jia family's current residence, and how far is it from here?"

Dong Xia nodded: "The Jia family now lives in a Wujin yard on the street next to it. I heard that Mrs. Lin bought the yard with money and asked Mrs. Jia to take care of her for the rest of her life."

Fu Li nodded, and was about to speak, when Wei Yan ordered his servant: "Wu Da Wu Er, you two, go and inquire about the current residence of Jia's family, and then go to find out about the situation. Don't care about other things, but those who attended the wedding banquet today There are those people, you two must write it down, and you must report it to me when you return to the mansion."

The two nodded and quickly took orders to leave.

After they left, Fu Li looked curiously at

Xiang Weiyan: "What do you pay attention to the people who attended Jia's wedding banquet today?"

A smile flashed across Wei Yan's eyes, and his tone was filled with anticipation: "If several county princes attended the Jia family's wedding banquet today, it should be a good thing for the emperor."

Several county kings with different surnames hid them tightly, and the Jia family had no intention of hiding.

If they were still in contact with the Jia family and the others, if Emperor Yonghe wanted to deal with these four kings with different surnames in the future, he could start with the Jia family and follow the clues to find out their fox tails.

Unfortunately, these people are not stupid.

Fu Li and Wei Yan waited in the restaurant for a while, and then simply called Xiao Er to come in and order food. After eating, they rested for a while before getting up and leaving the restaurant to continue shopping.

When Fu Li finished shopping and returned to Dingweihou's Mansion, the entire group was exhausted and paralyzed.

Fu Li's feet ached from walking today, but he was in a good mood. After returning home and soaking his feet, he enthusiastically began to try on the jewelry and clothes he bought today. When he met the right one, he would go back and ask Wei Yan Opinion.

Seeing Fu Li's happy look, Wei Yan shook his head helplessly, and simply sat on the sidelines and took Fu Li's trying-on process as his own benefit.

After trying all the things, the two servants that Wei Yan sent out before also returned to Dingweihou Mansion.

Hearing the message from the servant girl outside the door, Fu Li tidied up a bit, and then went out with Wei Yan to listen to the two young servants' reply.

"The Jia family's wedding banquet today didn't have many guests. Except for those families who had a good relationship with the Jia family and were liquidated together before, I have never seen a few high-ranking and powerful people."

"However, the four county princes that Lord Hou asked us to pay attention to were all present in person. Because the identities of several county princes were too noble, they even made a lot of noise at the wedding banquet when they arrived, attracting Many common people watched, wanting to see the true face of several county kings. Moreover, several princes were generous, and the gifts they sent to Jia's family were quite expensive. There were not many of them, and quite a few of the guests present exclaimed on the spot after hearing the name of the gift, making a lot of noise."

Wei Yan raised his eyebrows: "Jia's family has fallen to such a point, these four families have not given up on Jia's family? They even condescended to attend the wedding banquet of the younger generation of Jia's family?"

This is really benevolent.

Even a family with good morals will find a way to draw a line with others after discovering that their relatives and friends have been ransacked because of an iron-clad crime, and there is no chance of recovery afterwards.It is already the best result not to add insult to injury.

But these four county kings with different surnames did the opposite. Not only did they not draw a clear line with the Jia family, they even came to attend the wedding banquet of Jia Lian, a junior, in person, giving the Jia family enough face...

Wei Yan didn't think that these four county kings with different surnames had good personalities, he only felt that there was something in them that he didn't know

For example, what are the reasons for these four county kings with different surnames? They were caught by the Jia family and even the other eight princes.Wei Yan also suspects that the twelve families are grabbing each other's handles, each has something that will ruin the other's reputation, and something that will ruin his own reputation is held in the hands of others.

It's just that the identities of the previous twelve families are not much different, and they all enjoy a life of wealth and prosperity, so they have reached a tacit understanding with each other, and the relationship is also very balanced.

But now, the homes of the other eight princes have all been confiscated, and all those who can take care of things have been arrested and exiled. There are only a few immature boys, women and children left in the family.Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes, and the four county kings with different surnames are holding the evidence that can ruin the eight princes. After all, they have been raided by Emperor Yonghe.But in the hands of the eight princes, the handle on the four county kings with different surnames was still well hidden and was not searched out by Emperor Yonghe.

Although the item did not fall into the hands of Emperor Yonghe, which made several county kings with different surnames breathe a sigh of relief, as long as this item is in the hands of other people, they will have to worry about it for a day.

Throwing rats.It's not that the four county kings are unwilling to draw a clear line with the Jia family, but they probably can't draw a line at all.

If they rashly drew a clear line with the Jia family and others whose home had been confiscated, would the Jia family who had nothing to lose break their jars and show evidence to drag the four county kings into the abyss together?No one knows.

So I can only support the Jia family and the like, so that they don't die.

Several county kings chose to come to congratulate Jia Lian in person on the day of Jia Lian's marriage. I am afraid that they also appeased the Jia family and others, telling them that they have not abandoned them and that the previous alliance still exists.

Wei Yan clicked his tongue inwardly: "These families are really interesting."

Fu Li looked at Wei Yan curiously: "What do you mean by that?"

Wei Yan smiled, and after dismissing the servants in the room, he told Fu Li all his guesses, and at the end he couldn't help sighing: "I used to find it strange that these four princes and eight princes have inherited a hundred years of inheritance. In the coming year, the relationship between each other is still so good, which is really surprising. Compared with the unbreakable relationship between them, the so-called family relatives of our family are so ridiculous and vulnerable. "

However, the Twelve Families were at the height of their power at that time, even if a generation failed, someone would make up for it soon, so although Wei Yan found it strange, he still lamented more and felt that the power of these few families Relationships are enviable.

"But the Jia family has fallen into such a situation. The other four county kings should also know what the emperor thinks, but they still choose to commit crimes against the wind, dealing with the criminals' family members under the emperor's nose..."

This makes people have to think about their relationship in an unspeakable direction.

Fu Li blinked, but put forward a different guess: "Do you think it is possible that the original four kings and eight people did a thing together, but after this matter is known to others, it may attract them to raid their homes The disaster of genocide, so the original four kings and eight princes took this matter as a secret that they needed to protect together. But as time passed, the four kings and eight princes who first reached the covenant had passed away, and this secret was passed on to future generations , has become a handle used by future generations to write about each other?"

After all, no matter how good the relationship between the four kings and eight princes was at the beginning, their descendants may not necessarily have a good relationship

Even the descendants of brothers will become strangers after several generations, not to mention that they are just a few comrades-in-arms who went to the battlefield together.

Wei Yan froze for a moment, then frowned and thought deeply.

After a long time, he looked up at Fu Li with a serious expression: "I think your guess is probably true."

Although Wei Yan's previous conjectures are reasonable, but everyone's trick is to hide it tightly, and not let the second person know, even if the other party finds out, the first reaction will be to think of the other party Except, how could it be used as a handle to threaten the other party and form an alliance with it, after so many years?

What's more, the Four Kings and Eight Dukes are still twelve people, not just two people.

If there are only two people, and one person knows the other person's trick and wants to use it to threaten the other person in order to seek benefits, then even if the other person temporarily agrees to the other party's conditions for self-protection, he will definitely directly kill the other person in the future. Get rid of it, let this handle become a secret that no one knows.

Unless at this time, the person who was caught by someone also knew the other party's trick by accident

This handle must also have the same weight as your own handle, at least it must be the weight that will end up in the same end if it is known.

Two people, or even three people still have this possibility. Four, five, six or seven people can barely say that some of them ran into each other by accident and were forced by others to keep this secret, but are they just six or seven people? ?They are twelve people!

Twelve people, everyone knows at least one of them has the possibility of threatening the other person's life or a secret passed down by the family...

almost none.

On the contrary, Fu Li's guess is more reasonable and more likely.

Wei Yan's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but start to guess what kind of secret was hidden among the first twelve people, and even today, no one dared to let others tell it?

Fu Li was stunned for a moment, not surprised: "It is indeed more likely that twelve people will keep the same secret, but there are other possibilities." She smiled and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you. It doesn't matter, you are just a soldier who leads troops to fight. Although the emperor has developed the use of leading troops to raid homes, such work of investigating cases and intelligence should not be something you are good at, right? You directly use your own Guess and tell the emperor, the emperor himself will know who is more suitable to entrust this kind of matter to investigate
