Chapter 260 259 Yuchi Yi and Gao Tai were set up

That day, An Xin received various New Year gifts sent back by Li Ziyu and Zhu Shijing, and felt that these two students were very filial.

Then she received a stack of silver bills sent by the sick beauty Jiang Xuan. An Xin smiled and accepted it without any hesitation, feeling at ease.

Although she was in a hurry to save Leng Xiangbai and gave him the wine-making recipe, and had no time to discuss the profit sharing with him, it did not mean that she was a good person who was willing to help others without asking for anything in return.

Looking at the not-so-thin stack of silver bills in his hand, it can be seen that the wine that appeared in the capital during this period was his work.

Fortunately, this kind of wine already exists in this era, otherwise the time-traveling heroine would have sent people to investigate, and she would have to rack her brains to fool them.

Everything can be dropped except the vest, otherwise how can she secretly cheat others?

An Xin looked at the filial piety shown by his students, and fanned Qingfeng and Zheng Xiaoling with the silver bills in his hand.

"Master, please close your grinning mouth. You are an official now, so you should pay attention to your image." Qingfeng said with a smile in his eyes: "After you show off, I will help you close your mouth."

Zheng Xiaoling widened her eyes in surprise, making the two scars on her cheeks look even more hideous. She didn't expect An Xin to have such a childish side.

Just as An Xin was playing with the two of them, Fu Liu hurriedly pushed the door open and walked in, "Master, Awu, the follower who followed Master Yuchi to the border, fainted at the gate of the mansion.

He will wake up now and ask to see you."

An Xin was startled and handed the banknote in his hand to Qingfeng and hurried to the front yard.

When Mingyue, who had married and become the housekeeper of the front yard, arrived at the door of the front hall and saw the disheveled Awu stuffing cakes into his mouth, she hurriedly ordered the maid Luxu to hand him the water.

"How many days must one have gone without food to be this hungry?" Mingyue sighed.

Although An Xin was anxious, he did not go in immediately.

She guessed that Awu must have come back to Beijing at this time for some urgent matter to find her, but she could also clearly see that in order to get back as quickly as possible, he must have ridden at full speed and suffered a lot on the way.

After Awu finished a plate of soft pastries and drank a cup of hot tea, he seemed to come back to life. Only then did An Xin step over the threshold and walk into the hall.

Hearing the noise, Ah Wu turned around and saw An Xin. He immediately staggered to his feet from his chair and knelt in front of her, saying anxiously, "Master Shanzhang, please go and save my young master and Young Master Gao..."

Ah Wu used to often follow his master to the An Mansion, so he also called An Xin "Master Shanzhang" just like Li Ziyu and the other servants.

"Don't be anxious. Tell me slowly. What happened that made you travel thousands of miles in the middle of winter to report the incident?"

"Master Principal..." So Awu told him everything. After the severe winter at the border, the neighboring country Bei Ming would often send groups of soldiers to harass the border.

Not long ago, Yuchi Yi and Gao Tai's group were called to the Central Guard Army at night, and then ordered to go out of the city to wipe out the enemy soldiers.

But the next day, word spread in the army that they were arrogant and domineering in the capital, and were used to doing whatever they wanted. They came to the border and wanted to make a profit, and they didn’t listen to the orders of the garrison commander..."

After listening to Awu's story, An Xin suddenly had an idea. He remembered that there was a news in the capital not long ago that Xiao Wenjin, the eldest son of Prime Minister Xiao's mansion, was going to get engaged to the daughter of a military commander at the border.

"Call Da Zhuang."

Mingyue, who was standing at the door listening to instructions, quickly called her man over.

Da Zhuang bowed and saluted: "Master."

An Xin gave a few instructions about what he wanted to know.

"Yes." Da Zhuang stepped back.

Ah Wu had to hold on for the whole journey because he had to come back in the middle of winter to report the news. After he finished telling the story, he relaxed and fell into unconsciousness again.

This time it wasn’t because of fainting, but because of not sleeping for a long time.

What An Xin wanted to find out was not difficult. In less than an hour, he found out who the military general who was rumored to marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion was.

As she expected, that person was the daughter of Ma Boteng, the guard general of Guanzhong in northern Hebei.

This matter concerned the heirs of General Yuchi and General Gao. She thought about it and asked someone to notify the two generals.

Seeing General Yuchi's face as gloomy as water, General Gao's eyes were filled with deep anxiety and worry, and General Chen, who followed him, also frowned.

"These two brats have been set up." An Xin narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

General Gao was furious and shouted, "That old guy Ma Boteng, he was also a man who had been through thick and thin with the general more than a decade ago.

Even his promotion to General of Chariots and Cavalry was thanks to the general's promotion. How dare he do such an ungrateful thing?

Now he dares to plot against the general's son and my boy. Isn't he afraid of our revenge?"

General Chen Gang of Anbei is not only elegant in appearance but also considerate in heart. He stretched out his arm and patted General Gao on the shoulder: "Times are different now. The world is unpredictable and people's hearts are changeable. Don't let people say that our general is seeking repayment for favors."

At this time, An Xin held up his chin and said quietly, "I wonder if the generals have heard that the eldest son of Prime Minister Xiao's mansion is going to be engaged to the daughter of a general.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

And the engagement is with the daughter of a military commander who just returned from the frontier?"

Everyone was smart, and without An Xin saying anything else, they knew whose daughter that general belonged to.

"Oh, I see." General Chen: "This is climbing a high branch."

General Yuchi laughed sarcastically, "You also said it happened more than ten years ago. It happened so long ago that people have forgotten it. Let's not mention it again in the future."

"Yes!" Generals Chen Gang and Gao Feng answered, clearly hearing the disdain from their general.

An Xin: "What should we do now?"

"Uh..." General Yuchi thought for a moment and said bluntly, "The emperor trusts you so much that he gave you the Jade Dragon Whip.

We would like to ask you to come to the palace and ask the emperor for an imperial decree, can you send one of us to the border to see what is going on. "

An Xin frowned. She was also worried about Yuchi Yi and Gao Tai. If the two boys' reputations were confirmed, they would have no chance of staying in the army anymore.

If the heir to a military family loses his prestige, how can he lead troops to fight? If he cannot lead troops to defend the country, the family will not be far from decline.

The generals did not go to ask Emperor Sheng An themselves, probably because they knew that the old emperor would not easily agree to this request.

There were no major wars on the border, and the emperor did not want to raise a general who would be self-important and command his own troops.

He would not place a military general who had both prestige and strong ability in a place where he could not be seen and allow him to develop without being controlled by the imperial power.

This is why several generals asked her for help.

It can be seen that General Gao and General Yuchi are now worried about their sons and the future fate of their families. An Xin frowned and felt a little guilty.

If her guess was correct, the incident that happened to Yuchi Yi and Gao Tai was probably caused by her.

Prime Minister Xiao couldn't find an opportunity to deal with her in the capital, so he reached out to his students.
