Does the villain stepmother have a headache again today!

Chapter 224 The betrothed thing, the original owner insisted...

Marquis of Ping'an, chance to leave Beijing?

If Fu Aiquan was still surprised before, now Fu Aiquan is too surprised to speak...

He finally realized why his mother asked Lan Dai to take others away just now.

Whether it was just mentioned that Xu Jiming saved his father's life at the border, or the sentence now, what my father wants is the opportunity for Xu Jinan to leave Beijing-any one of these should not be easily mentioned, and it will fall into the ears of others, otherwise it will definitely happen. Suspected.

Fu Aiquan's gaze kept on Ruan Tao, and the shock in his eyes never faded away for a long time.

One is because of the sentence that his father asked Ping Anhou to leave Beijing.

The second is because her mother would tell her these things...

Most of the women in the back house are content with one side of the world. Even if it is a major marriage event, it is mostly a marriage and exchange between aristocratic families.

If you are lucky, you will meet your beloved; if you are unlucky, whether you live well or not in the square inch of the back house depends on the strength of your mother's family.Therefore, in the back house, the fights are all for the small group of wellheads who sit and watch the sky; toss and turn, who wins the fight, and who laughs at the end, all the short decades of life are exhausted here.

When my mother talked about this, she was like enlightened.

Therefore, she is no longer obsessed with the marriage that she cared most about earlier.What I thought was the most important earlier, now that I see it clearly, it seems that it is not so important...

She picked up the brush again.

There is what she really wants in the pen, not the ancient well and the world in the back house.

This may be the most correct decision she has ever made in her life...

But today is different.

Today, everything my mother told her was not about the back house, but about the front court.

The father passed away, the grandmother was powerless, and now the mother is the pillar of the house. The mother knows everything, but she doesn't understand why the mother wants to tell her?

It's easy for mother to prevaricate her, and she has prevaricated a lot along the way. As long as mother thinks, she will be able to prevaricate in a reasonable way, but she doesn't.

"The back house doesn't hear about the previous dynasty, why did my mother tell me this?"

Fu Wuquan looked at her.

Ruan Tao continued to pour tea for her, "I won't tell you this, how do you know what to do when something happens in Beijing? What to do?"

Fu Wuquan was slightly surprised.

Ruan Tao raised his sleeves, put down the teapot, and said softly, "Jingzhong is different from Huicheng. There are many nobles in Beijing, and there are more ghosts and snakes. It is good for my mother to take care of herself; Changge is young, four or four, Changyun, Tuanzi is still young, and Uncle Song still has matters to deal with in Huicheng Mansion, so he won't be in Beijing for a while. In Beijing, you and I are the only ones."

Fu Wuquan: "..."

Looking at each other, Fu Wuquan clenched his fingertips and asked again, "Just now, why did mother say that father wanted a chance for Xu Jinan to leave Beijing?"

Ruan Tao also looked at her, "Why did Xu Jin'an "stay" in Beijing?"

Fu Wuquan: "..."

Ruan Tao continued, "Because my elder brother died in the battle, so the emperor is sympathetic and wants to allow the younger brother of Jiming to come to Beijing and teach him personally?"

Fu Wuquan wanted to open his mouth, but swallowed back what he was going to say, his eyes were full of surprise.

Ruan Tao continued, "If the emperor personally taught him, would Xu Jin'an rely on his elder brother to fight to the death, and rely on the emperor's protection for him, and live a carefree, peaceful and peaceful idiot plus a playboy?"

Fu Wuquan: "..."

"Or live and hang around the flower house before getting married, and after getting married, stop going to the flower house, but eat, drink and have fun with a group of cronies, go in and out of the gambling house, and make a fortune every day?"

I don't know how many times Fu Yuquan was speechless?

"When the emperor was alive, he fulfilled his promise to take care of Xu Jin'an, but Xu Jin'an was also raised and abolished. Without Xu Jiming's Pinganhou Mansion, there was only one ineffective son, Xu Jin'an. Going back decades, he once let the emperor sleep The Marquis of Ping'an's mansion, which cannot be rested on the ground, has become an empty shelf, and the emperor can rest easy again, who is the winner in this game?"

After Ruan Tao asked, Fu Wuquan clenched his lower lip.

Ruan Tao continued to guide, "Think about it from another angle. The once prestigious Marquis of Ping'an reached its peak when Xu Jiming and Xu Jin'an's grandfathers were alive. After Ming and Xu Jin'an's grandfather passed away, the Marquis of Ping'an's mansion flourished and declined, but it was still feared by the emperor. It was too sharp, and it was often difficult to see clearly that it was not others, but oneself. Therefore, after Xu Jiming and Xu Jin'an's grandfather passed away, After the Son of Heaven "cries bitterly", Xu Jiming and Xu Jin'an's father couldn't wait to push Xu Jiming, the "Pride of Heaven", to Beijing. There is no other glory in the dynasty..."

Ruan Tao narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked softly, "Is it the same glory?"

Fu Wuquan shook his head dully.

Not only not, I'm afraid it's a reminder for the Marquis of Ping'an's mansion...

Thinking of Xu Jiming's death in battle, the late emperor took Xu Jin'an to Beijing as a "guest residence", and he has lived there ever since, never even leaving Beijing.

Like a bird with broken wings, trapped in a cage.

What the Tian Family wants is the Marquis of Ping An's Mansion who will be trapped in a cage forever, and will never get out of this golden silk cage.

This is really scary...

Fu Wuquan also thought of the Nanping Hou Mansion.

Fu Wuquan clenched his fingertips tightly.

"Later Xu Jiming went to the army and became famous in just one year. His talent is part of it, but is there any emperor's help and praise?"

When Ruan Tao said the word "Praise and kill", Fu Maoquan shuddered.

"Why did Xu Jiming rescue Fu Boyun from the pile of dead people, and carry him out of the purgatory full of blood and wreckage?" Ruan Tao's eyes fell on Fu Maoquan, and Fu Maoquan held his breath.

Ruan Tao said in a deep voice, "Because Xu Jiming saw his own shadow from Fu Boyun. At that time, Xu Jiming knew that riding a tiger was hard to get off, but there was no way out behind him; the only person he could save was Fu Boyun. Saving Fu Boyun is equal to redemption. Myself. That's why Mama Liu said that Prince Ping'an Hou walked for three days and three nights with Lord Hou on his back, and Lord Hou took his life back..."

Fu Wuquan clenched his fingertips, as if bit by bit into his palm.

Instead, Ruan Tao said softly, "So, Xu Jiming has a deep influence on Fu Boyun. Without Xu Jiming, Fu Boyun would not be able to clearly understand many things, nor would he be sober enough to know what he was going to do? Therefore, he is more important than others. The family is more transparent and sober."

When Fu Aiquan remembered his father was around, he would squat down and look at her with a smile, "Who made our Aiquan angry?"

Suddenly sadness came from it.

"After Xu Jiming's death, the young Xu Jin'an came to Beijing. Whether he was a real dude, or a dude who acted according to his elder brother's instructions from the moment he entered Beijing, he was the prince of Ping'an who was in prosperity and then declined. The last bloodline left by the mansion. Before the death of the first emperor, Xu Jinan's life was not difficult. After the death of the first emperor, no matter how poor Xu Jinan was in the capital, but if the new emperor did not speak, Xu Jinan could not leave the capital. Lei Chi took one step; therefore, if the new emperor doesn't speak, if Xu Jin'an wants to go home, unless it's a handful of bones..."

After Ruan Tao finished speaking, Fu Maoquan was stunned again.

After a while, he still couldn't help but say, "The Marquis of Ping'an's mansion has fallen, and Xu Jin'an is also down and out in Beijing. Why does the new emperor keep Xu Jin'an in Beijing?"

Ruan Tao looked at her, "Yes, let Xu Jin'an leave Beijing, who is going to say that?"

Fu Wuquan paused, and suddenly, he seemed to have a guess in his heart.

Including the land deed, including the house in Luming Lane, and also including, mother let He Ma, Ruan Qian, and Ruan grandson enter Beijing this trip...

Ruan Tao held up the teacup and said softly, "No one in the Marquis of Ping'an's mansion can open this mouth, which means suspicion; once there is suspicion, Xu Jin'an and the Marquis of Ping'an's mansion will never be able to leave the bondage of Beijing. his cage."

Fu Wuquan slowly let go of his fingertips, feeling a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

Ruan Tao continued to speak softly, "No one in Beijing will speak up for the Marquis of Ping An's Mansion. Whoever speaks up means that the suspicion will fall on someone's head. So everyone sees it, but everyone Silent. Even in the eyes of the Tian Family, the Marquis of Ping'an's Mansion is no longer the Marquis of Ping'an's Mansion; even if Xu Jin'an is already a waste of pleasure in the eyes of the Son of Heaven; even if Xu Jin'an is not allowed to leave the capital, it is actually for the new emperor. , It’s all just a matter of thought. Because the new emperor is not the first emperor, and the new emperor doesn’t suspect the Marquis of Ping’an Mansion, so these are not important. The important thing is that no one will drag himself into the water for a Marquis of Ping’an’s mansion, unless there is a last resort The reason is to let the Marquis of Ping'an's mansion re-enter the new emperor's vision and be seen by the new emperor."

When all these things came together, Fu Wuquan slowly stretched out his hands to cover the corners of his mouth and the tip of his nose...

Ruan Tao continued, "So, Xu Jin'an is lucky. There is always one person who still thinks about Xu Jin'an in this world, and that is Fu Boyun."

Fu Wuquan's eyes were red again.

Ruan Tao's eyes fell on the land deed in Fu Yuquan's hands again, and he said calmly, "But the new emperor's suspicion is not the Marquis of Pingan's Mansion, but the Marquis of Nanping's Mansion. So Fu Boyun has not, and will not leave any intersection with Xu Jin'an The only evidence is this land deed. So the story becomes that because Xu Jinan is a gambler, he lost to the domineering Fu Boyun. Fu Boyun relied on his military exploits and used the land deed to force Xu Jinan to get out of the house in Luming Lane. The thrill of beating a dog in the water with a stick—if Fu Boyun doesn't die in battle this time, this is what he will do and act in when he returns to Beijing."

Fu Wuquan choked again in his throat.

"If this battle is over and Fu Boyun returns victorious, no one in Beijing will say a word to Xu Jinan, but the new emperor will be driven out of the mansion because he hates him and sympathizes with Xu Jinan, and lives in the middle of the capital. , crying to the sky, shouting that Xu Jinan, who is ashamed of his ancestors, will have the only chance to leave Beijing... because Fu Boyun knows how much the new emperor hates him, so he will be tolerant to Xu Jinan."

Fu Aiquan's eyes fell on the land deed in his hand again, and he suddenly felt that the land deed in his hand was as heavy as a thousand catties of rocks.

"But, my father passed away..."

Thinking of Fu Boyun who lifted her up and leaned over to talk with her, Fu Wuquan trembled all over.

"That's why he left the title deed in the account books that Uncle Song will read."

Fu Yuquan's tears flowed down his cheeks, but he forgot to speak.

Ruan Tao whispered, "If he dies in battle, Uncle Song will also bring Changge to Beijing when he sees the land deed. There is an inner ghost in the army, and if the inner ghost wants his life, he will also want Changge's life, but the new The emperor can't, so in Beijing, he is safe under the emperor's feet. He died in battle, and the person who inherits the title of the Marquis is Changge. Changge is young. The Marquis of Nanping even took Changge with him to train him to be a trusted junior and close minister. At this time, no matter whether it is Song Bo or Changge, as long as they go to Xu Jinan with this title deed, Xu Jinan will move out of Luming Lane The house, because the dead are the most important. The new emperor wants to benevolent and comfort the Nanping Marquis Mansion, and it is for the army and the court to look at, and there is no reason to elevate the Nanping Marquis Mansion while trampling on the Pingan Marquis Mansion. At this time, the most The best way is to take advantage of Xu Jin'an's loss of his residence in Beijing, and keep sending an imperial edict to allow the Marquis of Ping'an to return to his hometown, and everyone is happy."

Speaking of this, Ruan Tao's eyes froze slightly.

Remembering what was mentioned in Mama He's letter, Xu Jin'an froze when he saw Mama He brought the land deed.

That is, the latter, Fu Boyun didn't even tell Xu Jinan.

Because Fu Boyun trusted Song Bo.

Also because there is only one piece of land deed and one page of jokes, even if it falls into the hands of others, no one will be implicated.

And Xu Jinan's reaction was also true, without any falsehood.

There is one more, which she missed earlier.

It was only when I saw the land deed and knew that Fu Boyun was impeccable.

Fu Boyun went to the Ruan family in Antang to ask for marriage, and the Nanping Hou Mansion and the Ruan family were in-laws.

If he died in battle and Uncle Song had to bring Changge, the old lady, and the rest of the children into Beijing, then all the Ruan family's care for Nanpinghou's mansion in Beijing would be reasonable...

Ruan Tao lowered his eyes slightly.

Just like there was an agreement with Xu Jin'an, but no clues were left behind; Fu Boyun also had an agreement with the original owner's father, Ruan Ximo, but no clues were left either...

Watching Fu Aiquan leave, Ruan Tao continued to think about Fu Boyun.

Xu Jiming has saved Fu Boyun's life, so Fu Boyun will always remember Xu Jin'an's affairs in the end.

In the original book, the person Fu Boyun owes the most is the original owner.

To Xu Jin'an, Fu Boyun is still like this, but Fu Boyun should never let go of the original owner's death.

Thinking of this, Ruan Tao suddenly remembered something.

That Fu Boyun's relic that Changge gave to her, and Changge finally returned to her - the fruit knife.

If she remembers correctly, Mama He once mentioned that it was the original owner who insisted that Fu Boyun give it to her as a betrothal gift.

The betrothed thing, the original owner must...

Ruan Tao's eyes moved slightly, "Lan Dai, where is my fruit...that dagger?"

"Servant to get it." Lan Dai didn't know what happened to Madam, but Madam seemed to be in a hurry.

Lan Dai quickly took it back, and Ruan Tao held it in his hand and observed it carefully.

She had always regarded it as a fruit knife before, and never looked at it seriously. Even after Changge came back, she gave the dagger to Changge as a relic of his father.

It's just that Changge gave it back to her later...

But if it is the original owner, the original owner will definitely not give it to others.

Fu Boyun must also know.

Therefore, Ruan Tao swallowed softly, and some thoughts became more and more bewildering in his heart.

She remembered that Rong Lianqu said that he lost this dagger to Fu Boyun, so Fu Boyun hesitated when it was originally offered...

Therefore, because the dagger was given to the original owner, Fu Boyun did not return the dagger to him when he communicated with Ronglian in the end.

Because Fu Boyun believed that the original owner of this dagger would keep it safe.

If Fu Boyun felt guilty towards the original owner from the beginning because of the marriage, then he would definitely leave something to the original owner.

If Fu Boyun had something to leave to the original owner, it would definitely be in this dagger...

Ruan Tao looked at the dagger in his hand one by one, not missing any details on the dagger.Finally, Ruan Tao held his breath as his gaze finally settled on the seam of the dagger scabbard.

Slowly stretch out your hand, hold down the gem set on one side of the dagger scabbard, and forcefully push down.

The dagger sheath fell off, and in the gap inside was a piece of paper that had been folded several times.

Ruan Tao rolled it away slowly, his heart was pounding.
