"Thank you, Commander Sun."

After saying this, the young man turned his head and left.

Commander Sun looked at his back and raised his hand to cover his eyes. Something flowed out from his fingers, crystal clear under the reflection of the sun.

...

The news of the old man's return spread quickly, and his disciples came to the door one after another, and the first one was Zhu Zhihong and his wife.

Zhu Wen and Xu Feng went on a trip together, but they had not come back yet. Mrs. Zhu was worried and wanted to come over to ask. Zhu Zhihong knew that Song Wanyue had not returned to Qingping County and wanted to take this opportunity to play a game with her.

Of course, his main thing is to see the teacher, and playing chess is just by the way.

After coming, Mrs. Zhu went to Meng's side, and Zhu Zhihong came to the old man's side.

He asked the servant who brought him here and knew that Song Wanyue was in the Xu Mansion. He thought that he would see people when he arrived at the old man, but he didn't expect that there was only the old man in the house.

"The student has met Mr."

"Sit down."

"Mr. Xie."

Zhu Zhihong sat down, "Mr.'s complexion looks pretty good."

"It's all Yue'er's credit. The medicinal food she made for me is very good."

Hearing the pride in his tone, Zhu Zhihong smiled and agreed, "Miss Song is good at anything, you are always blessed."

The old man agreed with him quite a bit and then changed the topic, "Do you think the rumors in Beijing a few days ago are true or false?"

Rumors from the past few days?

The first thing Zhu Zhihong thought of was that the second prince killed the third prince. After all, the third prince had a marriage with Song Wanyue, which was wrong. The third prince was already dead. What's the point of this matter?

What the gentleman asked was another rumor.

"Students think it is unreliable."

What kind of woman the emperor wants is not? How could he have thought about his sister-in-law that he shouldn't have?

"What if it's true?"

Zhu Zhihong subconsciously denies, "Impossible!"

The Princess is pretty good-looking, but some of the concubines in the harem are better-looking than her, so the emperor cannot be attracted to her.

The old man stroked his beard and kept silent, "There is no wind or waves. If it weren't true, how could the eldest prince be demoted to a commoner?"

"That's because he wants to kill the Wu family."

"Why did he kill the Wu family?"

Zhu Zhihong opened his mouth.

All civil and military officials do not believe in rumors. Since the emperor took power, he has not been tyrannical, but can also listen to the advice of all officials. Except for the punishment of serving the king and removing bones, he did not commit violent punishment to other officials.

How could such a emperor do such a thing?

But he had a good reputation in the past. He quelled the palace transformation with his own strength and saved the throne for the emperor. He led troops with strict discipline and did not allow his subordinate soldiers to invade anything from the people. He had a lot of achievements against the enemy, which made the enemy frightened. How could such a person suddenly have the intention of rebellion and enter the palace to assassinate the emperor?

Seeing that he was silent, the old man stopped when he saw that he was ready, picked up the teacup and drank it slowly.

...

Inside the Meng family courtyard.

After a few greetings, Mrs. Zhu asked Mrs. Xu Yan straightforwardly, "Have your Xu Zhen sent a letter? Isn't it said when I will come back?"

It is already twenty-six today, and Xu Yan has not come back yet. Mrs. Xu Yan is also anxious. "I wrote a letter in the first month of my trip, saying that everything is fine and I have never sent another letter since then. I thought they were going to come back for the New Year, and there is no news yet."

After hearing what she said, Mrs. Zhu was also anxious, "Isn't something wrong with them?"

When Wen'er said she liked Song Wanyue, she came to ask for a marriage proposal. While she was waiting for a reply, a Song Yin appeared, saying that she fell in love with Song Wanyue at first sight at the border. The two of them were holding hands and wandering around the capital without any scruples. Wen'er was sad and said that she wanted to go out for a trip with Xu Bai. She thought that her son would go out for a relaxing time, so she didn't stop him. Who knew...

The more I thought about it, the more I was afraid, Mrs. Zhu's eyes turned red.

She has two daughters and one son, and her daughter is married. Zhu Wen is the youngest and she loves her very much. Otherwise, she would not have come to the Xu family to propose marriage to her son despite Lord Zhu's opposition.

Seeing her eyes flushed, Meng advised, "Don't worry, since they haven't written a letter, they should be on the way back, and maybe they will be home in the next two days."

As soon as he finished speaking, Madam Wu walked in with a letter in her hand, "Young Master Sun has come to her."

Mrs. Xu Yan couldn't wait to take the letter, opened it and read it, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Zheng'er said they went to the Jinling area in Jiangnan. They were too far from home and couldn't get back. They were there for the Chinese New Year. Several of his classmates were with him, so let's not worry."

Jinling in Jiangnan is the territory of the Meng family, and there will be nothing wrong with the few people there, so Mrs. Zhu also felt relieved.

...

Zhu Zhihong felt suspicious and had no intention of playing chess with Song Wanyue. After saying something with the old man for half an hour, he said goodbye.

After getting on the carriage, I was still thinking about rumors.

The gentleman rarely says such things. Since he has said it, it means that he also thinks this matter is suspicious.

Mrs. Zhu saw him look heavy and asked, "But what happened?"

Zhu Zhihong came back to his senses and looked at his wife.

Mrs. Zhu was so angry that she was about to ask again, but she heard him ask, "Do you think the rumors that happened a few days ago are true or false?"

Mrs. Zhu was a little confused when asked, "Which piece are you asking?"

"That's..." Zhu Zhihong subconsciously lowered his voice, "The matter of Princess."

Mrs. Zhu was so scared that she opened the curtain and looked outside. Seeing that there was no one around, she lowered the curtain. Her voice was lower than that of him, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?"

Zhu Zhihong had long warned her not to discuss that matter whether at home or outside, so as not to cause trouble for her. She kept remembering it, why did the master suddenly mention it?

"Just tell me, do you think it's true or false?"

"Want to hear the truth?"

Zhu Zhihong nodded.

Mrs. Zhu almost came to his ears, "I think this may be true. The princess who was the most beautiful woman in the capital back then was not moved by her. It is not surprising that the emperor has such thoughts."

Zhu Zhihong looked at her.

Mrs. Zhu was seen far away from him, "This, this is what you asked me to say."

"parking!"

The carriage stopped, and Zhu Zhihong got off the carriage, "Send my wife back and pick me up at the house of Censor Wan in a while."

...

As soon as Zhu Zhihong left, Song Wanyue brought her medicinal food into the house. Seeing that she was the only one, the old man asked, "Where is Song Yin?"

"He's out."

Replying, put the medicinal meal on the table.

The old man was very surprised, "Why didn't you go with him?"

Song Wanyue put a small bowl in front of him, "He has gone to the Second Prince's Mansion, so I can't go with me."
