Absolutely! My maid was reborn after time travel

Chapter 235 Qingzhu’s disappearance creates a sensation in Shen Mansion

After Zhou Dashan left, Shen Qinglan looked at Tao Guan'er, "There must be people watching her, lest she become suspicious. But you can't let her go completely. You should also keep a special eye on her."

"I got it!"

Taoguan'er picked up the bamboo basket and asked, "Sister Shen, is there anything else you can do?"

"No more, go back."

"Well, I'm leaving. Goodbye, Sister Shen."

-

Midsummer is coming to an end, and the weather is gradually getting cooler.

Shen Qinglan received a letter from Zhao Shun, saying that his return date has expired.

At this time, she was playing chess with her second brother in the corridor pavilion of Moshi Hall. However, her skills were poor, and her second brother often let her go.

"Sisi, I was not in good health some time ago, and I didn't think much about what happened in Prince Heng's Mansion at that time. Now that I think about it, we owe such a huge debt to the Crown Prince. I'm afraid... the Crown Prince did it deliberately."

"Well, that's what grandma said. Grandma guessed that it was impossible for the two brothers and sisters of the Wei family to carry daggers into Prince Heng's Mansion so smoothly. When I was captured by Princess Changqing, so many guards in the Prince's Mansion didn't notice it. It was Zhao Yi who happened to pass by and saved me." Shen Qinglan said.

Shen Qingshi looked at the situation on the chessboard, took a sip of tea, and said: "Grandma's analysis is right, and I think so too."

Shen Qinglan sighed, "I didn't know before that my grandmother was so thoughtful."

"You underestimate grandma too much. What troubles has she never seen before?" Shen Qingshi said.

This game of chess was about to be lost, and there was no need to continue. Shen Qinglan also took a sip of tea, and then started to pick up the chess pieces.

"Huh? Why did you close the chess piece?" Shen Qingshi asked.

"Seeing that we are about to lose, why don't we accept it? This can be regarded as admitting defeat!"

Shen Qinglan smiled, and just after picking up the chess pieces on the chessboard, Ye Shuyue came.

"Sister-in-law looks good today. She hasn't been unhappy recently, has she?"

"I'm not so happy anymore, but I'm eating more and more, and I'm getting fatter."

Shen Qinglan pulled her sister-in-law to sit down and said: "You are fat somewhere. Besides, my sister-in-law is so beautiful, no matter whether she is fat or thin. She is beautiful. Sister-in-law, you are here just in time. Why don't you have a talk with my second brother for me?" , I don’t know how he became an elder brother, but he refused to let me go at all.”

Shen Qingshi chuckled lightly, "If I didn't let you go, you would have lost three times in that game of chess just now."

"Your second brother is becoming more and more like a child now. What's so glorious about winning against your sister?"

Ye Shuyue smiled and rolled her eyes at him. Shen Qingshi smiled and said, "Second Grandma is right."

"Sister-in-law, I heard that sister Li Zhi often goes to Lanxi Courtyard recently?"

Ye Shuyue held a white chess piece and placed it in the center of the chessboard, saying, "I have long heard that sister Zhi likes to pretend to be pitiful and aggrieved. Only now can I see it. It is really like rain falling like beads."

Shen Qinglan couldn't help but laugh out loud. This Shen Qingzhi really didn't make any progress at all.

"Sisi, I heard what your second brother said about Qingzhi. Do you plan to keep her in Shoukangyuan? My grandmother is not young anymore, so we can't keep asking her to worry about her." Ye Shuyue said.

"When my father came to me, he asked me to put Sister Zhi in her place. She said that Mo Shitang had many things to do and wanted to live with you so that she could take care of you, so my grandmother stopped her." Shen Qinglan said.

Ye Shuyue thought for a while, "I see. I've been pretending to be close to her these past few days, and she even mentioned Brother Yi Wang to me. Do you know?"

"Shen Qingzhi is now Zhao Yi's woman, and it was Zhao Yi who sent her back."

Shen Qinglan did not hide it and told the truth directly.

"What?" Ye Shuyue was stunned for a moment, "Seriously? Brother Yi Wang has always loved stunning women, how could he like sister Zhi? Is it because he wants to marry Miss Cui that he let her return home?"

"Of course not. Qingzhi has always lived in Hengqianyuan. Even if the prince and Miss Cui get married, it won't affect anything. I think the prince's intention is to implement Qingzhi's reputation and let our Shen Mansion I generously sent Qingzhi to Prince Heng’s Mansion as my concubine,” Shen Qingshi said.

"I'm afraid Qingzhi herself has the same idea." Ye Shuyue nodded, and added: "Brother Shun Wang and Brother Yi Wang don't get along, and our Shen family can't be caught in the middle. But uncle... I don't know what uncle thinks."

"My father is naturally willing. After all, Shen Qingzhi's face has been ruined and she is a widow. No one will marry such a woman as a first wife. The heir apparent of Prince Heng's palace is naturally the best choice." Shen Qinglan said. .

"Sisi, otherwise... just move Qingzhi out of Shoukangyuan and let her live with your second sister-in-law. Don't worry, we still have some time to spare and can take good care of her." Shen Qingshi suggested.

"Well, Sisi, your second brother is right, we will be on guard against her." Ye Shuyue also agreed.

"No, in front of the second sister-in-law, Sisi is not afraid of your jokes. Two days ago, Shen Qingzhi secretly sent a letter from home to the village in Luoping, and her daughter-in-law Han also replied. What do you think they are discussing? ?”

After Shen Qinglan said this, she couldn't help but sneered.

"Could it be that I want to harm you?" Ye Shuyue guessed.

"No."

Shen Qinglan shook his head and slowly tightened his grip on the teacup. Noticing this scene, Shen Qingshi also frowned.

"They want to kill my mother and my brother."

As soon as these words came out, Ye Shuyue was a little shocked, and so was Shen Qingshi. The couple was silent for a long time.

Shen Qinglan took a deep breath and said: "Shen Qingzhi doesn't know that the little girl she tried her best to bring back from Hengqianyuan has been bribed by me."

Shen Qingshi asked: "Then how do you plan to deal with it?"

"She just said this in a letter and hasn't taken any action yet. Let's see, it's hard for me to take action if we can't prove her guilt."

"Miss, Miss! It's not good!"

As soon as Shen Qinglan finished speaking, Zhou Dashan hurried over.

"The young master is missing!"

"How is it possible?" Shen Qinglan stood up suddenly, "Azhu was in Jingyao Courtyard, how could he disappear?"

"The young master was taking a nap in Jingyao Courtyard. The nurses who were looking after him also fell asleep. When he woke up, the young master was gone! The second master had sent people to search the entire Jingyao Courtyard. The young master could still walk. If you can't walk steadily, how could you get lost?"

Zhou Dashan finished speaking in a panic and sighed heavily.

"Officials, send the people from our courtyard out to look for him together!" Ye Shuyue said.

Shen Qinglan hurriedly left Mo Shitang and asked Zhou Dashan to call Tao Guan'er and Yuan Zi to her side.

The group of people first came to the side room of Jingyao Courtyard. When Tao Guan'er entered the room, she felt something was wrong.

"Sister Shen, there are traces of incense being used in this house. It doesn't seem like the wet nurses in charge were careless."

"Someone must have done it on purpose, Motoko, did you find anything?"

Yuanzi checked the house and yard and found that the person who took away A-Zhu didn't leave many traces, so it was difficult to detect.

"Miss, can you call everyone from Jingyao Courtyard back?" Yuanzi said.

"You want to inquire? Well, I will immediately ask someone to call them back. No one should be missing."
