Ye Jiayao helped make the vegetable/dish to say goodbye, she does not dare to stay for a long time here, if made Jinrong know that she has not died also walks, must give to extinguish her. 叶佳瑶帮忙做好了菜就告辞了,她可不敢在这里久留,要是让瑾蓉知道她没死还找上门来,非把她给灭了不可。 Comes out from the back door lane, one team of troops crowd around a sedan chair to pass through from the front, almost dashed, Ye Jiayao is busy at falling back on near the wall. 从后门的巷子里出来,一队人马簇拥着一顶轿子从面前经过,差点就冲撞了,叶佳瑶忙退到墙边。 Nyima, government authorities journey big manner. 尼玛,官家出行好大的派头。 Waited for the team in the past, the street restored bustlingly, Ye Jiayao mixed in the crowd, vanished quickly. 等队伍过去,街道恢复熙攘,叶佳瑶混入人群中,很快消失。 Before the sedan chair arrives at the Wei Residence front door, stopped, the guard goes forward: Sir, Wei Residence.” 轿子来到魏府大门前停了下来,侍卫上前:“大人,魏府到了。” Xia Chunyu lifted the palanquin curtain to get down the palanquin, looked up black bottom fine gold gold/metal inscribed horizontal tablet that on the front door was hanging, Wei Residence two large characters under sunlight splendid. 夏淳于掀开轿帘下了轿,抬头看着大门上悬挂的黑底鎏金匾额,“魏府”两个大字在日光下熠熠生辉。 Handled here matter to return to Capital City, but he thought it is necessary Wei Residence. 原本处理完了这边的事就要回京城,但他觉得有必要来一趟魏府 second leader Sheng Wu nearby Li Tie confessed, Yaoyao was kidnapped to climb mountains some people to have 3200 money to ask Black Wind Hillock to make this business, who this person is not difficult to guess, who can gain the benefit from this shameful transaction? If Wei Family cannot check to return to Yángzhou, Yaoyao, him cannot for also only then this matter that she does. 二当家盛武身边的黎铁招认,瑶瑶被劫持上山是有人出了三千两银子请黑风岗做这趟买卖,这个人是谁不难猜测,谁能从这场见不得人的交易中获取利益?如果魏家查不到就回扬州查,瑶瑶已经不在了,他能为她做的也只有这件事了。 Prefectural Magistrate Wei obtains the news, is quite surprised, actually does not dare to be careless, being too busy goes out to welcome. 魏知府得到消息,颇为惊讶,却是不敢马虎,忙不迭的出门相迎。 Does not know that Sir Flag Assistant visits, has to lose welcomes, but also looks to forgive.” Prefectural Magistrate Wei attitude warmly humble, although Prefectural Magistrate and Flag Assistant official rank is fourth rank, however one is an official employed in the capital, is Imperial Procession Guard, in the Esteemed Sovereign nearby manservant, one is the local official, palm side government affairs, high and low high and low is self-evident, moreover this Flag Assistant is Jing'an Marquis heir, the status is also more honored than others, he naturally does not dare to pull rank. “不知云麾使大人光临,有失远迎,还望恕罪恕罪。”魏知府态度热情略带谦卑,虽然知府云麾使的官阶都是四品,然一个是京官,属鸾仪卫,在皇上身边当差,一个是外官,掌一方政务,这其中的高低尊卑不言而喻,而且这位云麾使靖安侯世子,身份又是比旁人尊贵些,他自然不敢托大。 Xia Chunyu smiles lightly: Passed by this place, visits especially, thank your for your hospitality.” 夏淳于淡淡一笑:“路过此地,特来拜访,叨扰了。” What came thank your for your hospitality saying that the Flag Assistant arrival, you honor my humble home, wished for earnestly.” Prefectural Magistrate Wei haha said with a smile. “何来叨扰之说,云麾使驾临,蓬荜生辉,求之不得。”魏知府哈哈笑道。 Two people exchanged greetings are walking toward. 两人寒暄着往里走。 After inviting Xia Chunyu takes a seat, Prefectural Magistrate Wei low voice told the servant prepares the food and wine: Prepares what food and wine to ask Eldest Young Madame to make a decision, Sir Flag Assistant is the Jinling person.” 夏淳于落座后,魏知府小声吩咐下人去准备酒菜:“备什么酒菜请大少奶奶拿个主意,云麾使大人是金陵人氏。” The Xia Chunyu aural acuity is excellent, this saying character does not fall into the ear. In heart surprised, Eldest Young Madame was the Yaoyao status, before coming, he expected that Wei Family deals with the bride to be kidnapped only two strategies ; first, to maintain composure, looks for the top package conducts the wedding as usual ; Second, to maintain composure, when only Ye Family has not accompanied the bride to her new home. 夏淳于耳力极好,这话一字不落入了耳。心中惊疑,大少奶奶原来是属于瑶瑶的身份,来之前他预料魏家应对新娘被劫持不外乎两种策略,一是不动声色,找个顶包的照常进行婚礼;二是不动声色,只当叶家不曾送亲过来。 However estimated that the second strategy implements a little difficulty, normally, a bridal also two days distance can arrive at Jinan Prefecture, catches up with the day of getting married to come, the invitation to wedding anything's affirmation has delivered, suddenly said cancels, will make one cause suspicion. Therefore, the possibility of first strategy is quite big. 不过估计第二种策略实施起来有点难度,正常情况下,新娘还有两日的路程就可以到达济南府,是赶着成亲的日子来的,喜帖什么的肯定早就送出去了,突然说取消,会令人生疑。所以,第一种策略的可能性比较大。 However he has not expected to withstand/top the person of package also to be a southerner, otherwise Prefectural Magistrate Wei will not make this Eldest Young Madame make a decision. 但是他没料到顶包之人也会是南方人,不然魏知府不会让这位大少奶奶拿主意。 Prefectural Magistrate Wei told the servant, then asked: „Does Sir come Jinan to have the business?” 魏知府吩咐了下人,回头问道:“大人来济南可是有公干?” Xia Chunyu said in the heart: Naturally is the business, the father still stayed more than half a year on Black Wind Hillock! However this matter is the first-level secret, in his family/home does not know that he came Shandong. Now is of great success, does not need to conceal, probes Prefectural Magistrate Wei while convenient, said: This time comes for Black Wind Hillock.” 夏淳于心说:自然是公干,老子还在黑风岗上呆了大半年呢!不过这事属于一级机密,连他家里都不知道他来了山东。如今大功告成,也就不必隐瞒了,顺便试探一下魏知府,便道:“此番为了黑风岗而来。” In the Prefectural Magistrate Wei really eye flashes through wipes the unusual look, at once says: Prince Helian gives full play of power and strength, smashed Black Wind Hillock at one fell swoop, but also a Qilu land peace, the merit in the state, making one admire.” 魏知府果然眼中闪过一抹异色,旋即道:“赫连王爷大发神威,一举端掉了黑风岗,还齐鲁大地一片安宁,功在社稷,令人敬佩。” This is natural, His Majesty in Jinling, is actually worries for Lu banditry at times rampant, dispatch troops to encircle several times all flies back without any results, this time Prince Helian goes into action personally, solved the sorrow of His Majesty heart finally.” Xia Chunyu raised His Majesty, the facial expression was very respectful and solemn. “这是自然,圣上远在金陵,却是时时为鲁地匪祸猖獗而忧心,几次派兵围剿皆无功而返,此番赫连王爷亲自出马,总算解了圣上心头之忧。”夏淳于提起圣上,神情无比恭肃。 That is that is, does not know when Prince Helian does come Jinan? The lower officials want the generation of Shandong common people to thank Prince surely well.” The Prefectural Magistrate Wei smile flattered, Prince Helian was a serious big buddha, if can become friends with while this opportunity, the reality was the great good fortune, therefore was even more humble, said by the lower official. “那是那是,不知赫连王爷什么时候来济南?下官定要代山东百姓好好谢谢王爷。”魏知府笑容谄媚,赫连王爷是一尊不得了的大佛,如果能趁此机会结交,实乃大幸,故而越发的谦卑起来,以下官自称。 Xia Chunyu slightly smile: Prince has detained the Black Wind Hillock bandit chieftain to return to the capital to report after carrying out orders in advance, the intention of Sir, I will convey.” 夏淳于微微一哂:“王爷已经押着黑风岗匪首先行回京复命,大人的心意,我会代为转达。” Prefectural Magistrate Wei shows the regrettable look, but changes mind thinks, can maintain the relations is also good with Flag Assistant, was equal to that climbed up the friendship with Jing'an Marquis Residence, not to mention Jing'an Marquis, is Flag Assistant is the character who is worth seeking acquaintance with high-ranking people, although he in Jinan, is actually knows that this Flag Assistant is the eminent in Capital City noble scion, the future is limitless. Liujiang must go to Jinling to attend the metropolitan examination immediately, if can, he be the plan is Liujiang seeks a position in Capital City at one fell swoop, if Liujiang can turn in Flag Assistant this friend, is of help a great deal. 魏知府露出遗憾的神色,不过转念一想,能与云麾使搞好关系也不错,就等于与靖安侯府攀上了交情,且不说靖安侯,便是云麾使自身便是个值得攀交的人物,他虽在济南,却是知道这位云麾使是京城公侯子弟中的翘楚,前途不可限量。流江马上就要去金陵参加会试,若能一举得中,他是打算为流江在京城谋个职位,要是流江能交上云麾使这个朋友,助益良多。 said: So many thanks the Sir, does not know how many days in Jinan the Sir can stop over? Also quite makes the lower official completely perform the duties of a host.” 便道:“如此多谢大人了,不知大人能在济南逗留几日?也好让下官尽尽地主之谊。” Xia Chunyu smiles, is not first busy answering the Prefectural Magistrate Wei issue, but looked, said: Comes, seeing your family place is jubilant, but hosted a joyous occasion?” 夏淳于笑了笑,先不忙着回答魏知府的问题,而是四下里看了看,道:“一路进来,见府上喜气洋洋,可是办喜事儿了?” Prefectural Magistrate Wei said with a smile: Eldest son just got married last month.” 魏知府笑道:“长子刚刚上月完婚。” Xia Chunyu surprisedly says: Right? If we had known should offer a congratulatory gift is.” 夏淳于意外道:“是吗?早知道就该送上一份贺礼才是。” Prefectural Magistrate Wei laughs: Sir was polite.” 魏知府笑哈哈:“大人客气了。” Should should, but is away from home the thing that nearby also few types take make a move, when I return to the capital to make up again.” Xia Chunyu said with a smile, asked: Does not know the one who marries is which thousand gold (daughter)?” “应该的应该的,只是出门在外身边也没几样拿得出手的东西,待我回京再补上。”夏淳于笑道,又问:“不知娶的是哪家的千金?” Is officer the thousand gold (daughter) of family friendship of many generations Yángzhou Sub-Prefect Sir Ye, betroths children before they are born.” “是本官的世交扬州同知叶大人的千金,指腹为婚。” Xia Chunyu maintains composure saying: But Ye Family Eldest Young Lady?” 夏淳于不动声色道:“可是叶家大小姐?” Prefectural Magistrate Wei secret heart startled: How did Sir know?” 魏知府暗暗心惊:“大人如何得知?” Xia Chunyu gives a calm smile: Frankly, today I am held to visit to try to prove a matter specially.” 夏淳于淡然一笑:“实不相瞒,今日我是受人所托特意登门求证一件事儿。” Prefectural Magistrate Wei heart is perturbed, is really disturbed, has an ominous premonition. 魏知府心里七上八下,甚是忐忑,有种不祥的预感。 What matter does not know is, do the Sir please say? ” ”不知是何事,大人请讲?” Xia Chunyu carried tea to sip one slowly, said slowly: This time breaks through Black Wind Hillock, meets a female, says Ye Family Eldest Young Lady, the daughter-in-law who Wei Family has not gotten married.” 夏淳于端起茶盏慢悠悠地呷了一口,慢悠悠地说:“这次攻破黑风岗,遇见一女子,自称叶家大小姐,魏家未过门的儿媳。” In the Prefectural Magistrate Wei brain of bang, scalp tingles with numbness, he already for this matter annoyed for a long time, the nuptial chamber night just now knows what marries is not Ye Family Eldest Young Lady, but is Ye Family Second Young Lady, the Wei Family name brand daughter-in-law by the Black Wind Hillock bandit was kidnapped on the road of accompanying the bride to her new home, this matter passes on, the Wei Family face countenance not saves, happen to Ye Family Second Young Lady accompanying, gets married for the elder sister, solved two crises, no wonder she. 魏知府脑子里轰的一下,头皮一阵发麻,他已经为此事心烦已久,洞房夜方才知道嫁过来的并非叶家大小姐,而是叶家二小姐,魏家的正牌儿媳在送亲的路上被黑风岗的土匪劫持,这事传出去,魏家的颜面无存,正好叶家二小姐随行,替姐出嫁,算是解了两家危机,也怪不得她。 This thinks that this matter can practice trickery, who knows Black Wind Hillock to be smashed quickly, and Flag Assistant also saw Eldest Young Lady Ye, this little while also comes to try to prove. 本以为这件事可以瞒天过海,谁知黑风岗这么快被端掉,且云麾使还见到了叶大小姐,这会儿还上门来求证。 The matter has been a foregone conclusion, is inalterable, is wrong also wants to be wrong. 只是事已成定局,不容更改,便是错也要错下去。 Prefectural Magistrate Wei braces oneself, ridicules saying: Sir chatted, Eldest Young Lady Ye had gotten married with my son last month, could it be can we also admit mistakes the person to be inadequate? Deciding is that female bandit the excuse that to take off/escape the crime finds deceives the Sir.” 魏知府硬着头皮,讪笑道:“大人说笑了,叶大小姐上月已经与犬子完婚,难道我们还能认错了人不成?定是那女匪为了脱罪找的借口诓骗大人。” Really isn't?” The Xia Chunyu corners of the mouth bring back wipe sneering that is not easy to detect. “果真不是?”夏淳于嘴角勾起一抹不易察觉的冷笑。 Prefectural Magistrate Wei extremely nods definite: This matter absolutely impossible.” 魏知府万分确定地点头:“此事绝无可能。” Xia Chunyu smiled saying with a smile: Since is not then good, I do not believe, if is really the daughter-in-law who Wei Family has not gotten married is kidnapped, how could the Sir is aloof?” 夏淳于笑了笑道:“既然不是便好,我也不甚相信,若真是魏家未过门的儿媳被人劫持,大人岂能无动于衷?” Prefectural Magistrate Wei conducts the back the cold sweat streaming, again and again nod righteousness expression: That is that is, if really has this matter, how could the lower official gives up.” 魏知府背上冷汗涔涔,连连点头义正言辞道:“那是那是,若真有此事,下官岂能善罢甘休。” This female is too hateful, unexpectedly compiles this lie to destroy my Wei Family clear reputation, but also asked the Sir to deliver this officer this female, this officer must question clearly.” “此女太可恶,居然编造这种谎言毁我魏家清誉,还请大人把此女交与本官,本官要查问清楚。” Prefectural Magistrate Wei was thinking first gets so far as Wei Family to come to say again, cannot make her talk nonsense outside. 魏知府心想着先把人弄到魏家再说,不能让她在外面胡说八道。 In Xia Chunyu heart angry, he had guessed correctly that Wei Family will not acknowledge, but has not thought that the attitude will so renounce, don't said that Yaoyao now not , will then also hand over absolutely not in him, making you destroy the corpse and leave no trace? In your eyes clear reputation serious offense human life, what mistake but does Yaoyao have? 夏淳于心中恼怒,他早就猜到魏家不会承认,只是没想到态度会如此决绝,莫说瑶瑶现在不在了,便是在他也断不会把人交出来,让你们毁尸灭迹么?在你们眼里清誉大过人命,可瑶瑶有什么过错? Sir raises requests, is unable to accept below.” Xia Chunyu bears patiently the anger to say. “大人所提要求,恕在下无法应承。”夏淳于隐忍着怒意道。 Prefectural Magistrate Wei heart one cold, somewhat is not fully correct the Flag Assistant thoughts. 魏知府心头一凛,有些猜不透云麾使的心思。 Sir, this matter is related to the Wei Family prestige......” “大人,这事事关魏家声誉……” Xia Chunyu lifts the hand saying: Sir considered thoroughly, the reality is that female has died in the chaotic war, this officer is also to be cautious, therefore comes to ask.” 夏淳于抬手道:“大人多虑了,实是那女子已经死于乱战之中,本官也是为了谨慎起见,故而前来一问。” Prefectural Magistrate Wei relaxes secretly, although heart has some regrets, after all the child when the swaddling clothes, he has also hugged, but compared with the present predicament, has to sigh one, this best. In the bandit nest has stayed the female, the pure and chaste has lost, in also what appearance survival world? Only can blame her own luck being star crossed. 魏知府暗暗松了口气,虽然心里有些许遗憾,毕竟那孩子在襁褓中时,他还抱过,但比起眼下的窘境,不得不感叹一声,这样最好。一个在土匪窝中呆过的女子,贞洁已失,还有何面目存活世上?只能怪她自己福薄命薄。 The servants convey a message, said that was the lunch prepares. 下人来传话,说是午饭准备好了。 Slightly prepares the inferior wine inadequate respect, asking the Sir to take a seat......” Prefectural Magistrate Wei politely says. “略备薄酒不成敬意,请大人入席……”魏知府客气道 Xia Chunyu cups the fist and says: Sir was polite, is only below also important matter in the body, is unsuitable to stay for a long time, since the matter has clarified, then said goodbye below.” 夏淳于抱拳道:“大人客气了,只是在下还有要务在身,不便久留,既然事情已经弄清楚了,在下便告辞了。” He disdains to eat meal with this false person together, the dyspepsia, the nausea will spit. 他才不屑跟这种虚伪之人一道吃饭,会消化不良,会恶心会吐。 Sir must walk...... Prefectural Magistrate Wei does not detain to say in this short time anxiously. “大人要走也不急在这一时半刻……”魏知府挽留道。 Latter later period of meeting.” Xia Chunyu said goodbye hastily, necessity that has not left behind. Who must clarify now in Wei Residence so-called Eldest Young Lady Ye is, having is the means that when he investigates thoroughly clearly, must want justice for Yaoyao surely. “后会后期。”夏淳于匆匆告辞,已经没有留下的必要了。要弄清如今在魏府的所谓叶大小姐到底是谁,有得是办法,等他彻查清楚,定要为瑶瑶讨一个公道。 Packed off Xia Chunyu, Prefectural Magistrate Wei then assigns/life the person to call the study room eldest son Wei Liujiang. 送走夏淳于,魏知府便命人把长子魏流江叫去了书房。 Sir Flag Assistant comes visiting just now, mentioned Ye Family Eldest Young Lady, claimed has seen her in Black Wind Hillock.” Prefectural Magistrate Wei said. “适才云麾使大人来访,提到了叶家大小姐,声称在黑风岗见过她。”魏知府道。 Wei Liujiang in great surprise: Father, can this should do?” 魏流江大惊:“爹,这可如何是好?” The Prefectural Magistrate Wei complexion sinks coldly, lifts the hand saying: Does not need to be startled, believes that this matter Ye Family is consistent with our Wei Family standpoint, moreover that Ye Jinxuan has died a violent death, dies not verifies, so long as our two arrange for everybody to give the same story, will then not revive the mighty waves, is only...... Jinrong that you must tell carefully, can not give oneself away.” 魏知府面色沉冷,抬手道:“不必惊慌,相信此事叶家与我们魏家的立场是一致的,况且那叶瑾萱已经死于非命,死无对证,只要咱们两家统一口径,便不会再兴波澜,只是……瑾蓉那,你得吩咐仔细了,不得露出马脚。” Wei Liujiang wiped the sweating, said: Son, avoid, Rongrong has been very careful.” 魏流江抹了把虚汗,说:“儿子省得,蓉蓉一直很小心。” Prefectural Magistrate Wei hesitates saying: In Jinan Prefecture is unobstructive, the key to Jinling that side, you must deal carefully.” 魏知府沉吟道:“在济南府自是无碍,关键是到了金陵那边,你们要小心应对。” Wei Liujiang said: Is the Jinxuan mother's ancestral home somewhat is also troublesome.” 魏流江说:“也就是瑾萱外祖家有些麻烦。” This matter makes your wife's father have a headache.” The Prefectural Magistrate Wei heart is also agitated, no one wants to have this matter, since left , can only cover is covering, made the best of a bad situation. “这事儿让你岳丈自个儿头疼去。”魏知府心底也是烦躁,谁也不希望出这种事,既然出了,也只能捂着盖着,将错就错了。
