Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family

"This will trouble the princess!"

Mr. Du bowed and then looked at Madam, gesturing for her to follow him.

Shen wanted to stop her, but it was obvious that Mr. Du had already taken care of everything properly, so she didn't know how to stop her at the moment.

In order to avoid suspicion, Mr. Du went to the front hall to wait.

I think the thing is naturally in Miss Song's hands, I'm afraid something went wrong.

Then I went to the front hall to wait with peace of mind.

The fifth prince, He Yuan frame, did not come to the banquet today because of etiquette. He only sent someone to deliver two more generous betrothal gifts.

He is not aware of these things that happened in the Duke's Mansion.

Because Song Jinxi was in the house, she was unaware of what was happening outside.

Song Jinyue did not ask anyone to invite her, but directly led Mrs. Du to Song Jinxi's courtyard.

After seeing them leaving, Mrs. Shen hurriedly entered the house and called her daughter to go with her.

Song Jinyue winked at Qiu Yun and motioned her to bring the people Ming Zhuxuan was serving.

She just took Mrs. Du to Song Jinxi's courtyard. Qiu Yun trotted all the way and brought others with her.

The maid in Song Jinxi's courtyard was arguing with Song Jinyue's maid, so Mrs. Shen rushed over with her daughter.

"It's impossible for everyone to have no rules, and it's impossible to do this without paying attention to the rules of the house!" Mrs. Shen scolded.

Everyone was frightened and hurriedly knelt on the ground, shivering and trembling.

"Everyone, get out of the way. Don't try to stop me today. If anyone tries to stop me, I'll tell Xi'er Luo to gossip, and I'll sell you out of the house!"

Shen made a loud noise, and everyone retreated to both sides to make way for them.

"Thank you." Mrs. Du walked up to Mrs. Shen, thanked her, and then ordered people to go into the house to search.

Song Jinxi turned sideways and tugged on her mother's sleeves, her eyes full of worry.

Back then, in order to frame Song Jinyue, she specially chose the moon-white brocade that everyone in the capital had for the witchcraft doll.

At that time, we still didn’t know the late emperor’s plan to pray for blessings from all officials before his death.

Later I learned about this, but the things had been buried in Mingzhuxuan, so I simply gave up and never touched them again.

Who could have expected that it would lay the foundation for such a disaster.

If it weren't for the piece of cloth in Song Jinyue's hands, how could she have faced the trap of being exposed?

"Mother……"

Song Jinxi's voice was trembling, her eyes were red, and her body was trembling slightly.

"Don't be afraid." Mrs. Shen comforted her daughter in a low voice and held her hand tightly.

At this moment, Mrs. Shen only wanted to protect her daughter, and she had no other thoughts.

It was because of her poor thinking about this matter before that someone found out about it.

Not long after, Mrs. Du's nanny came out of the house with a group of maids, and she saw a piece of moon-white brocade cloth in her hand.

When Song Jinxi saw the cloth being found out again, her heart trembled, her feet felt weak, and her body rested in her mother's arms.

His eyes were filled with anxiety, and his heart seemed to jump out of his throat.

The nanny stopped in front of Mrs. Du, knelt on the ground, presented the cloth in her hand, and respectfully replied: "Madam, the thing has been found."

Mrs. Du raised her forehead slightly, then looked at Miss Song and asked aloud: "Miss Song, may I ask, is this cloth a gift from your mother?"

Song Jinxi was so confused that she couldn't hear Mrs. Du's voice for a long time. She only looked to her mother for help.

Mrs. Shen looked at her daughter, feeling distressed and sad. She looked at Mrs. Du and answered for her daughter: "Mrs. Du, this is the palace reward I gave to my daughter."

"Then I'll take it to my master first. Mrs. Shen, Miss Song, you're rude."

Mrs. Du left with a group of people. The maids in the courtyard huddled and hid in the corridor, each with their heads low to the ground, for fear of being seen by Shen and his daughter.

"Mother, let me go to the front hall to greet Mr. Du for mother." Song Jinyue saluted and said goodbye.

Mrs. Shen looked at each other angrily.

When Song Jinyue was no longer seen, Song Jinxi stopped talking and snuggled into her mother's arms.

"Mother……"

Mrs. Shen shook her head slightly, signaling her not to say anything, and then helped her daughter into the house.

Aunt Zhao was watching outside, but there was no one else in the house except Shen and her daughter.

Mrs. Du led her mother into the front hall of the Duke's Mansion, and Song Jinyue followed Mrs. Du.

Mr. Du saw the moon-white brocade cloth at a glance. When grandma presented the cloth in front of him, he looked at it carefully and compared it with the cloth that the princess gave to Miss Song today.

Confirmed that these two pieces of brocade are actually the same.

He also asked someone to measure the size.

The piece of brocade brought out from Miss Song's house was one foot short, and the clothes on the witchcraft doll also happened to be one foot short.

Master Du asked someone to take the brocade back to the City Patrol Division, and then ordered the City Patrol Division Officer to send it to the Duke's Mansion.

"Please, Princess, please ask Mrs. Shen and Miss Song to come out."

Mr. Du acted impartially, so Song Jinyue naturally agreed.

He hurriedly asked the steward to invite Mr. Shen and his daughter to the front hall for a reply.

In just half a cup of tea, Shen and his daughter came to the front hall, but they looked the same and looked confident.

"Master Du, I wonder why we came here to find our mother and daughter?"

Shen pretended to be confused, pretending to understand.

"Mrs. Shen, may I ask that the brocade in Miss Song's hand is missing by one foot, and where is this foot?"

Master Du opened up the brocade, pointed to the missing part, and asked.

Mrs. Shen looked at her daughter suspiciously and asked, "Xi'er, where did this foot go?"

Song Jinxi frowned, looking deep in thought. A flash of light suddenly flashed in her eyes. Then she bowed and slowly replied: "Replying to Mr. Du, I used this foot to make a hand stove, just because Years have passed, and I think the material is no longer what it is."

Mr. Du raised his eyebrows and asked, "Can I ask Miss Song to fetch the things?"

There was no emotion on Song Jinxi's face, "Please wait a moment, Mr. Du. I'll go back and look for it right now, but... I'm afraid it will take some trouble. After all... it's too long ago."

Song Jinxi replied with a look of regret on her face. After all, the brocade was used on the hand stove many years ago. I am afraid that the material has lost its original appearance. Moreover, it is deep in the house and the things used by ladies in the boudoir are not shabby. ?

If it was damaged, I'm afraid it would have been given away to someone else or lost.

"It doesn't matter, I will just wait here for Miss Song."

Mr. Du naturally guessed the intention behind the words of Shen and his daughter, but he still asked Song Jinxi to find the things first.

Let’s wait and see.

If Miss Song really can't be found, then both Shen and her daughter will have to go to the City Patrol Department.

I'm afraid I'm going to suffer a lot.

This time there is no need for Shen to be tortured this time at Jingzhao Yamen. After all, it is about the Queen of the Central Palace and the foundation of the country.

I just don’t know, has this Shen ever thought of this?

Song Jinxi and everyone saw the gift, then exited the front hall and went back to get it.

Song Jinyue frowned. Watching Song Jinxi leave, there was always a vague uneasiness in her heart. Then she looked at Shen, and happened to meet Shen's eyes looking at her.

Shen was very proud, with a hint of sarcasm flashing in her eyes.

Song Jinyue felt even more uneasy.
