The Daily Life of the Daughter of a Minor Official

Chapter 205 Chapter 205 Rebellion in Beijing 1

Cheng Yingzhen cried anxiously: "Ah Jin, your father is still in the capital, what should I do? King Qi's people hate him for not standing in line, will they take the opportunity to attack him..."

She didn't dare to think about it anymore, she felt like she was in a daze.

Mother's worry is not unreasonable, but it is obvious that she cannot show it at this time. Su Ruojin comforted her: "King Qi is currently occupied with sitting on the dragon throne. How can he have time to care about father, a seventh-grade official? Mother, don't worry, Prince Zhao Xiaojun is the father." student, he will definitely find a way to protect his father.”

Cheng Yingzhen wanted to seize the messenger and said, "Guard Gao, please quickly ask the little prince to save my husband and send him here..."

 Gao Wei was in a dilemma: "Ms. Su Er, I still need to reply to the letter."

Su Ruojin asked Chunxiao and Qiuyue to pull the mother off, and she followed out, "The city gate is completely closed now?"

 The guard Gao nodded, "I probably won't be able to get in either."

“Then how do you send news back to Beijing?”

Now I am afraid that even they will not be able to send the news in, but Guard Gao did not say anything, just cupped his hands and said: "I'll say goodbye." Regardless of whether he can send it in, he has to find a way. This is their mission.

Seeing Guard Gao's back getting further and further away, Su Ruojin suddenly chased after him, "Guard Gao, have you seen Uncle Hua Ping?"

 Gao Wei shook his head, "I have no news about him."

Then where did Uncle Hua go? Is it in the Dongshan area, or has it been tracked to the capital?

Shi Er's family, Shangguanyu and others were also awakened by the silence. They came to the main hall one after another and asked what happened.

Su Ruojin sighed and summarized the emperor's death and the prince's rebellion in one sentence.

 Everyone was shocked after hearing this, and their faces turned pale with fear.

 This is really a big deal.

Shi Er was so frightened that he stammered: "Does everyone outside... know about it?"

Su Ruojin's face tightened: "This is the news brought by the little prince. I guess the outside world doesn't know about it yet. Don't talk nonsense when you go out, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

She is not a real ancient person after all. This is not serious at all. In fact, it may lead to death.

Shi Er has been working at the bottom of the capital for many years. Knowing the powerful relationship, he immediately turned around and warned his family not to say a word when they went out.

Shangguanyu also agrees with what Shi Er said.

For a while, everyone couldn't sleep. They sat in the main hall and waited in fear until dawn. The rooster crowed over and over again. Cheng Yingzhen didn't even wash her face and was about to go to the street to wait for Su Yanli, but Su Ruojin stopped her.

“Mother, although the news of the emperor’s death and King Qi’s rebellion and usurpation of the throne has not yet reached the outside world, the Dongshan area is a summer residence for dignitaries. It is estimated that many people know it like us, and they cannot go out at will now.”

 “What about your father?” After crying for a long time, he finally felt better, and now he started crying again.

Su Ruojin quickly hugged her mother, patted her back and coaxed her for a long time, and then persuaded her again, "Mom Ji, take my mother to sleep first, and I will find a way to get my father out of the city."

There must be a way to find a way, but for a young lady to rescue her father from a rebel city, this is probably a fantasy.

Of course Su Ruojin knew that she said this to reassure her mother.

"Ajin, we must rescue your father. If you didn't have your father..." She wouldn't be alive either.

“I know, mother, don’t worry, dad must be lucky. Good people have their own destiny, and good people have their own help.”

 Her daughter was capable of anything in Cheng Yingzhen's heart, so she believed Su Ruojin's words and took Su Silang, Su Xiaomei and Mother Ji back to the room to stay quietly and not cause any trouble to her daughter.

When the main hall was finally quiet, Su Sanlang asked, "Sister, have you thought of a solution?"

Normally, Su Ruojin would have to be angry, but at such a critical moment, she would feel nervous and uneasy. She shook her head, "No."

"Then..." Su Sanlang was only a ten-year-old child. He was frightened by his mother's tears and the look of his sister's impending disaster, and lost his usual liveliness.

Ye Huaizhen has been silent. Of course, she is usually like this, so no one can see anything at this moment. She glanced at the sky outside, cupped her hands and said: "My dear boss, I'm going out first."

 She didn’t say what she was going to do, let alone when she would be back.

 But Su Ruojin could tell at a glance that Ye Huaizhen went to find Hua Ping.

"I will go with you."

 “Jinniang…”

 “Master…”

 “Sister—”

Yang Siniang, who had just gotten up, walked to the main hall with her girl, "Ajin, where are you going?"

In the middle of the night, when Guard Gao came to find someone, Yang Siniang was woken up. Su Ruojin asked her to continue sleeping. She wanted to follow her out, but Su Ruojin pressed her down and coaxed her to say that she must be fine. As a result, the careless little lady really slept until she woke up.

Su Ruojin looked at the innocent and lovely girl and said to herself, I will go find your father, I will probably scare her to death, with a smile on her face, "There are many homeless people outside, and the shop is closed urgently, I will write a notice and post it, and buy some food by the way." Come back and eat by yourself at noon, don’t wait for me.”

There were two guards at Su Ji's morning tea shop. The shop was closed. The two guards were brought to the Su family's annex. Su Ruojin left one to look after the annex. He clasped his fists and said to Shangguanyu, "If there is a government patrol coming, please trouble Shangguan." The young master came forward to receive one or two."

The situation was tense. Shangguanyu didn't even notice the strange gesture made by the young lady, and quickly agreed, "It's chaotic outside, so my boss must come back as soon as possible."

 “Thank you.”

She spoke to Ludani Shier and her family and asked them to stay at home, not to go out at will, not to open the door at will, and to pay attention to safety.

 After saying that, she took another guard and Ye Huaizhen out to find Hua Ping.

Mao Ya quickly followed.

Su Ruojin didn’t let her follow.

Mao Ya said, "I have only one purpose in entering the Su family, that is, I will be wherever the little lady is." The purpose of her being bought in was to protect her.

Mao Ya was thirteen years old when she entered the Su family. Unknowingly, six years had passed and she was already nineteen this year. She was about the same height as Ye Huaizhen. She was tall and fair. She stood in front of people with a straight back. At first glance, she seemed to be dull. Only an expert can see the way of doing it. This is a strong posture formed by practicing the posture for a long time.

　Okay, sister, if you want to follow, then just do it.

As soon as they took a step forward, Shi Xiaoer hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Please ask for a carriage to travel. I'm a good driver." After saying this, he looked at the group of people diligently, as if asking everyone to take him with them.

He often drives out for shopping, and his driving skill is not inferior to that of a professional coachman.

Su Ruojin's head was tense and sensitive now, and she glanced at Shi Xiaoer warily.

He smiled at the young boss and glanced at Mao Ya unconsciously.

Su Ruojin's tight strings relaxed a little. Her eyes quickly glanced at Sister Mao Ya and Shi Xiaoer, and nodded, "Hurry up."

Once Shi Xiaoer heard that his boss agreed, he was very happy and ran to the stable to hitch the carriage. After a while, the group of people left the other courtyard and drove up Wenshan Street, heading straight towards Su Ji Morning Tea Shop. They were not far away and they were about to arrive.

Su Ruojin shouted: "Don't stop."

Shi Xiaoer asked, "Xiao Dongjia, if you don't stop, where are you going?"

 “Go find that poor scholar who was supported by Mr. Yang.”

Shi Xiaoer was stunned. He jumped out of the carriage, turned to the back compartment, and looked at the people inside: "Why are you looking for him?" Didn't he say he went to the shop to put up notices and then buy ingredients?

 Very puzzled.

 Ye Huaizhen looked at his little boss.

Su Ruojin sighed and said, "Uncle Hua has been looking for Mr. Yang, but he hasn't come back yet. Let's go to the poor scholar to find out where Mr. Yang has gone."

Shi Xiaoer actually still doesn’t understand why Hua Ping went to find Mr. Yang. Could it be that he wanted to ask Mr. Yang to take his daughter back? After all, it's such a mess now.

 It turns out that posting notices was an excuse to offend Madam!

Shi Xiaoer quickly jumped on the carriage and whipped up his whip, "I know where people like the poor scholar probably live."

Having been doing business on Wenshan Street for several years, Shi Xiaoer was quite familiar with this area. He passed through Wenshan Street, turned to the official road, and then turned from the official road to a small village at the foot of the mountain. The village road was small, and several people jumped off The carriage was tied to the big tree at the head of the village.

Shi Xiaoer led a few people and asked questions as they walked. He spent a few pennies to find a helper from the village, and soon led them to the place where the poor scholar lived.

 The helper smiled and said, "The door is locked, the poor scholar is not here."

However, Su Ruojin's eyes swept from the poor scholar's home to the doors of the houses around him, which were also closed and locked. Based on her understanding of the people at the bottom of the Dayin Dynasty, most people did not have the habit of locking the doors when they went out. In fact, in such a situation In the village, as long as there are neighbors around, they will ask them to look after them and leave them unlocked, but each of the dilapidated thatched houses she saw was locked.

 Very inconsistent with the customs at this time.

Ye Huaizhen had already thought about the fact that she could not find a poor scholar. She looked at the young master, meaning that she was going to look elsewhere.

Su Ruojin didn't seem to see her eyes. She took a step forward and stopped on the right side of the poor scholar's house, staring at the locked door.

Everyone looked at her in confusion. An ordinary person would have asked, "Xiao Dong, why did you stop here?" ’

 Sure enough, in the next sentence, Shi Xiaoer asked for everyone’s thoughts.

Su Ruojin did not respond to them. Instead, he passed by the place where the poor scholar lived and looked at the neighbors around him. He scanned around and found that only the thatched house at the edge was occupied. The man looked out of the small black hole-like window and saw a pair of Zhaozi kept staring at this group of strangers.

Su Ruojin called in a low voice: "Brother, please go and ask that person who lives in these rooms. Why are they not at home? Where have they gone? When did they go out?"

 It was clear that they were not just looking for poor talents, and everyone was puzzled.

Not to mention that everyone was puzzled, even Ye Huaizhen was puzzled, but she was a person who saw it in her eyes and thought about it in her heart, and stood aside silently.

Although he knew that asking would lead to nothing, Brother Bangxian still followed Su Ruojin's instructions and asked.

Standing outside the window as dark as a hole, he asked, "Brother, where are these families going? When did they go?"

The man didn't come out when he heard the question. He looked at the people with his eyes and didn't reply.

 After no response for a long time, Bang Xian turned around and looked at Su Ruojin and his party.

Su Ruojin deliberately sneered coldly, "It's okay if you don't come back. When this poor scholar comes back, we can come back. If you want to owe me the money Su Ji has, there's no way."

 After saying that, he seemed to be very angry. He walked to the poor scholar's door and kicked his feet out, as if to vent his dissatisfaction.

 Ye Huaizhen...How come she, the shopkeeper, didn't know that the poor scholar had come to Su Ji Morning Tea, let alone owed any money? What's going on?

Shi Xiaoer had the same idea as Shopkeeper Ye, and thought to himself, what's wrong with the little master?

Mao Ya and the guards are the background. They only look at Su Ruojin. They can do whatever the master tells them to do. Just stand alert and have nothing to do.

The helper noticed something was wrong and quickly stepped forward to coax the person, "Little lady, you kicked the door and you have to pay for it."

Su Ruojin seemed very angry, threw a piece of silver, turned around and left.

 Ye Huaizhen and others quickly followed.

 Why did you leave so suddenly? Bang Xian stared at the broken silver and laughed wildly in his heart. He's gone. He's gone. He picked up the broken silver and stuffed it into his arms. He looked left and right and slipped away. He didn't even notice the murderous eyes in the window. .

Hurrying to the big tree at the entrance of the village to get the carriage, Su Ruojin was the first to jump on the carriage.

 Ye Huaizhen didn't come, "Little boss, what do you see?"

Su Ruojin was thinking about everything about Master Yang. When he heard the question, he raised his eyes and said, "Uncle Hua Ping is in the capital."

"how do you know?"

 “Get on the carriage first.”

Ye Huaizhen had never jumped on the carriage so quickly as she did now. She suddenly discovered that the little boss was not only good at business, but also seemed to be very good at finding people to investigate cases.

Putting down the car curtain, she asked, "Little boss, what exactly did you see?"

Su Ruojin pursed her lips and said, "Some time ago, Carpenter Zhang disappeared. When the young prince found Carpenter Zhang, Mr. Yang was helping two young officials next door who were living in difficulty."

Ye Huaizhen had heard Hua Ping talk about it, but they just regarded it as a coincidence and didn't take it seriously at all.

“Once is a coincidence, what about two or three times?”

In order to investigate the matter of his father being framed, Ye Huaizhen has long since transformed from a boudoir lady into a qualified detective. As long as Su Ruojin starts and raises the slightest question, she can deduce and analyze the truth of some things.

“You mean, he used others as a cover to do shady things?”

Su Ruojin said nothing, silence was the answer.

Ye Huaizhen raised his head and took a deep breath, his face turned pale, "Is he the mastermind of my father's matter?"

"I don't know whether he is the mastermind or not," Su Ruojin said, "but I guess your father's unconscious behavior must have threatened him, so he took the following series of actions."

“He thought my father had discovered that he was colluding with the envoys, so he turned around and framed my father?”

Su Ruojin pursed her lips: "This is just my guess. What I'm worried about now is whether Uncle Hua is following him, or whether he discovered him and tied him up like Zhang Carpenter..."

 Ye Huaizhen raised his eyes sharply.

Su Ruojin noticed that her eyes turned red instantly, and she pursed her lips tightly, as if tears would remain if her eyes moved.

 It turns out that she cares about Uncle Hua.

 “Little boss, I’m going to save him.” She couldn’t let him follow in his father’s footsteps.

Su Ruojin turned around and said to the guard who was following him, "Brother Zhang, if I can contact your people, go back and arrest the person just now."

Zhang Shun was surprised, "My duty is to protect the Su family."
