"Third cousin, it's rare that Mr. Situ is so elegant. Please let me go with you as a favor." Zhao Xue also spoke up. Although she didn't know the purpose of Situ Chen doing this, she believed that he must be doing this.
There is a reason.
Murong Ziyi glanced at Murong Zhaoxue and raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was thinking about it. After a moment, he said: "In this case, Mr. Situ, it is better to obey my orders than to be respectful."
"Okay, tomorrow the second prince and the third prince will go to Qinhu for a while after going to court." Situ Chen stood up with a slight smile, then cupped his hands and said: "In that case, let's take our leave first and not disturb the third prince's rest."
Murong Ziyi glanced at him, then looked at Murong Zhaoxue who was standing up, and ordered the boys outside the pavilion: "Send a few of you out." After saying that, he walked out of the pavilion first.
Situ Chen walked to Murong Zhaoxue, supported her, and looked at Qin Kui: "Aunt Hua, let's go."
Qin Kui nodded, and the three of them walked out of the pavilion together and walked towards the back door of Prince Yi's Mansion.
Shadow Wind followed behind, and as he was walking, his eyes flashed, he looked back, his brows furrowed slightly, and he continued walking.
When they arrived outside the house, the boy was waiting outside the door. After Murong Zhaoxue and others got on the carriage and drove away, they entered and closed the door.
On the carriage, Murong Zhaoxue looked at Situ Chen without asking anything, waiting for him to speak on his own.
Situ Chen glanced at Murong Zhaoxue and Qin Kui, knowing that they were confused, he thought about it and asked Qin Kui: "Aunt Hua, didn't you find anything just now?"
Qin Kui frowned slightly: "What did you find? Is there anything special just now?" Her mind was focused on Xue'er's affairs just now, but she didn't pay attention to the surrounding situation.
Situ Chen nodded: "Just now when we were talking in the pavilion, someone was eavesdropping not far away. When I accidentally looked over, he left. He is also very high in Qinggong."
"Who could it be?" Qin Kui asked doubtfully, who in Prince Yi's palace could be eavesdropping?
Murong Zhaoxue frowned, thinking, looked at Situ Chen and asked: "Master Situ just asked the third prince if he had guests, was he testing the third prince?"
Situ Chen nodded: "Indeed, although the third prince's expression remained unchanged, his slight glance towards the front yard gave him away."
"That means... the third prince does have a guest. The person Chen'er saw just now is probably the third prince's guest." Qin Kui frowned and said.
Situ Chen nodded: "Xue'er said that the second prince is trustworthy, but the third prince doesn't know much about him, so we must be careful."
Zhaoxue also nodded in agreement: "Indeed, Zhaoxue is not very familiar with this third cousin. Although this matter concerns the Murong family, we need to be careful."
"Chen'er, then why do you want the third prince to go fishing in Qinhu Lake tomorrow?" Qin Kui asked again.
Situ Chen chuckled lightly: "Aunt Hua will know tomorrow."
Murong Zhaoxue looked at Situ Chen and frowned slightly, wondering what kind of medicine he bought in the gourd.
The carriage drove slowly, and after more than half an hour, they arrived at the back door of Leng Mansion, and the three of them got out of the carriage.
Yingfeng walked up to Murong Zhaoxue and held his hands in his hands: "Master, when we just left Prince Yi's Mansion, Yingfeng felt that someone was watching us in the dark."
"Didn't you see that person?" Murong Zhaoxue looked at him and asked.
Yingfeng thought for a while and reported: "Returning to the master, Yingfeng only saw a black shadow, and it disappeared all of a sudden."
Murong Zhaoxue looked at Situ Chen: "Could they be the same person?"
Situ Chen narrowed his eyes and thought for a while: "It should be the same person. We must find out who that person is. I will instruct Mo Yan to monitor outside Prince Yi's Mansion later."
Murong Zhaoxue nodded and told Yingfeng: "Yingfeng, you go to Prince Xuan's Mansion again and ask the second prince to go fishing with the third prince to Qin Lake after the court tomorrow. Then tell the second prince that the third prince doesn't know anything important.
, you must be careful in your words and deeds.”
"Yes, Master." Shadow Wind responded with his hands raised, and jumped away.
"Zhaoxue, Aunt Hua, please go in. I'll go back to Situ Bieyuan." Situ Chen glanced at the retreating shadow wind and said to the two of them. If he stayed in Yuxueyuan again, if someone with intentions knew about it, even though he was with
Cher is engaged, but it will still cause damage to Cher's reputation.
Murong Zhaoxue understood his concerns and nodded: "Be careful."
"Don't worry." Situ Chen raised a warm smile, full of endearment, and watched Murong Zhaoxue and Qin Kui enter the door. He lowered his eyes slightly, jumped up, and went to Nangong Villa.
As soon as they entered Yuxueyuan, Yinxiang came forward and saluted: "Princess, the master is here. He has been waiting for the princess in the hall for more than an hour."
Murong Zhaoxue frowned and waited for more than an hour. After thinking for a moment, he nodded: "I understand." He turned to Qin Kui and said, "Master, you should go and rest first."
Qin Kui nodded: "Xue'er should go to bed earlier." After that, he turned around and walked towards his house.
"Yinxiang, besides the master, is there anyone else?" Murong Zhaoxue watched Qin Kui enter the room, and then asked Yinxiang.
"Back to the princess, there is also the master's wife, Miss Yunrong." Yinxiang bowed and answered.
Zhao Xue frowned and asked again: "Has anyone in the mansion come to see the master today, or has anyone from outside come into the mansion?"
Yinxiang thought for a while and reported: "Back to the princess, Miss Yunrong's sister-in-law came to see Miss Yunrong today." A few days ago, the princess ordered herself and Yinxin to pay attention to the entrance and exit of Leng Mansion every day.
People, to prevent villains from succeeding.
Murong Zhaoxue's eyes flashed and she nodded: "Let's go." After saying that, she walked towards the hall, and Yinxiang followed hurriedly.
Stepping into the hall, he saw Leng Ao sitting at the table drinking tea, his face darkened. When he saw Zhao Xue entering the room, he put down his tea cup.
Murong Zhaoxue stepped forward and bowed slightly: "Zhaoxue has met his father."
Yun Rong and Yin Xin, who were waiting on the side, saluted Zhao Xue: "My slave, please see the princess."
"Zhaoxue, it's so late, where have you been?" Leng Ao looked at Zhaoxue Zhaoxue and asked in a deep voice.
"Back to father, Zhaoxue went to cousin Yaer's palace and sat for a while. He came back late just now and kept his father waiting for a long time. It's not Zhaoxue's fault." After saying that, he bowed down again to apologize, stood up straight and looked at Leng Ao, confused.
He asked: "What's the matter with father coming to Yuxue Yuan to see Zhaoxue so late?"
Leng Ao looked at her puzzled expression, his eyes flashed slightly, and he stood up and said, "It's not a big deal. It's just that a servant from the Zhenguo Mansion came to ask about the maid. According to the servant's report, the maid has not left Yuxue.
hospital."
"What?" Murong Zhaoxue asked in great confusion: "Father, which servant is talking nonsense? Didn't you see that maid leave? Could it be that that servant has been guarding outside my Yuxue Courtyard?"
"This..." Leng Ao was speechless for a moment, his eyes flashed, and he added: "But the boy guarding the door also said that he did not see the maid leave."
"Father, I don't know about Zhaoxue. Zhaoxue just met the maid and didn't recognize her, so she asked Yinxiang to take her out of the courtyard. Zhaoxue, a servant of Yuxueyuan, can all testify." Zhaoxue said.
Decent, his eyes were always looking at Leng Ao, without any intention of evading anything, and then he said: "Has father been looking for her in the house? Maybe she is hiding in some corner?"
Leng Ao also looked at her, frowned and thought for a while, then stood up: "In that case, my father will ask people to search in the house and tell the people in the Zhenguo Mansion truthfully. It's getting late, Zhaoxue will be earlier.
Just rest."
"Yes, father, Zhaoxue wishes to send his father off." Zhaoxue bowed and smiled slightly.
Leng Ao looked at her deeply again, and was supported by Yun Rong to leave. When Yun Rong walked out of the house, she glanced at Zhao Xue unintentionally, her eyes flashing slightly.
"Princess, have you waited for more than an hour and come to ask Xiaochan?" Yinxiang saw that the two of them had disappeared and looked at Zhaoxue in confusion and asked.
Zhaoxue narrowed her eyes and looked at the two maids beside her: "Yinxiang, Yinxin, remember, you must keep a close eye on Xiaochan and Qinghuan, and you must not let them say such things.
If there is anything unusual in the Snow Courtyard, please report it to me. If outsiders come in or out of the house, please report it to me as soon as possible."
"Yes, Princess." Yinxiang and Yinxin hurriedly bowed and responded. Seeing their master's appearance, they intuitively felt that something big was about to happen.
"Okay, you all go and have a rest." Zhaoxue calmed down and ordered with a slight smile.
"Princess, I will serve you and rest first." Yinxiang bowed and said.
Zhaoxue shook her head: "No, you go and have a rest. I want to sit alone."
"Yes, Princess." After hearing what she said, the two of them agreed, and both bowed and retreated.
Zhaoxue sat on the soft chair and stretched out her hand to stroke her forehead. She felt that things seemed to be getting more and more complicated now. They were knotted up one after another in her mind and she couldn't figure out how to sort them out.
He sat quietly and thought for half an hour, sighed slightly, then got up and walked to the main room to rest, that's all, let's wait until tomorrow to talk about anything else.
On the other side, Situ Chen went all the way to Nangong Villa, went to the most remote part of the palace and jumped into the mansion.
After avoiding everyone, he arrived at Nangong Liluo's courtyard. Once inside, a man wearing night clothes came over and said, "Young Master Situ, the master is in the side room, please come."
Situ Chen nodded and followed the man to the side room of the yard. The man opened the door for Situ Chen, then closed the door and stayed outside.
After entering the side room, he saw Nangong Liluo leaning on the couch and reading some book. He raised his eyes and looked at Situ Chen who walked into the room: "It's late at night, just pour the tea yourself."
Situ Chen smiled lightly, walked to the table, poured himself a cup of tea, sat on the other side of Nangong Liluo, took a sip of tea, and looked at him: "How are things going?"
"When I do something, I will succeed immediately." As Nangong Liluo said, he put down the book in his hand, picked up his cup of tea and took a sip.
"What did you find out?" Situ Chen looked a little more serious and put down the tea cup in his hand.
Nangong Liluo glanced outside the house, and his expression became serious: "Although Xiao Yunhan wants to make me an alliance with him, Xiao Yunhan is a strict person and doesn't trust me too much, so he doesn't get much information."
Situ Chen nodded: "I understand, if it is so easy to gain Xiao Yunhan's trust, then there is no need for you to take action."
"Is Chen praising Liluo?" Nangong Liluo raised an eyebrow and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"What do Li Luo think?" Situ Chen asked back, smiling softly, slowly tapping the sandalwood table on the couch with his slender jade hands. After thinking about it, he asked again: "How many did you find out?"
"After you left, I went to Zhenguo Mansion..." Nangong Liluo narrowed his eyes and narrated to Situ Chen in detail.
Murong Zhaoxue and Situ Chen left Nangong Villa. Nangong Liluo spoke to Nangong Liyuan again, then left Nangong Villa and walked to Zhenguo Mansion.
"Sir, who are you looking for?" The gatekeeper at the gate of the Zhenguo Mansion came forward and asked.
"Excuse me, please report to your general, Nangong Liluo." Nangong Liluo replied with a smile.
The boy looked at him secretly, then agreed and walked to the Zhenguo Mansion. After a while, he came out and went to the mansion to meet Nangong Liluo.
When he arrived outside the main hall, he held his hands and said: "Young Master Nangong, please come in quickly, the general is inside."
"Thank you." Nangong Liluo smiled lightly and walked into the main hall.
"Young Master Nangong, what kind of wind brought you here today?" Xiao Yunhan stepped forward and held his hands, his face still without a smile, but he could see a hint of welcome to Nangong Liluo.
"General Xiao is joking." Nangong Liluo also said with cupped hands.
"Come, come, please sit down quickly." Xiao Yunhan smiled and stretched out his hand, and said: "Quickly go and bring tea to Young Master Nangong."
"Yes." The maid responded very softly, her voice seemed to have a hint of crying, she lowered her head and walked out of the hall, just looking at her back as if she was trembling.
Nangong Liluo watched the maid walk out, her eyes slightly lowered, and she sat down in the direction Xiao Yunhan pointed, her eyes flashed again, the soft chair was hot, and she looked towards the table next to it.
There were actually some water marks on it, a circle shape, probably left by letting the tea go. Just before he entered the house, someone had sat on this soft chair and had some tea. Could it be that he was Xiao Yunhan's guest?
"Young Master Nangong, are you coming?" Xiao Yunhan also sat down and looked at Nangong Liluo.
"Oh, that's it." Nangong Liluo came back to his senses, smiled towards Xiao Yunhan, and continued: "To be honest with General Xiao, Liluo came here this time, firstly, to thank General Xiao for the purple ginseng gift, and secondly, to
I want to visit General Xiao. This is a beautiful piece of jade from my Nangong Family Jade Shop. I hope General Xiao will accept it." With that, he took out a piece of beautiful jade from his sleeve and handed it to Xiao Yunhan.
Xiao Yunhan's eyes flashed with doubt, but he took the beautiful jade in Nangong Liluo's hand with a smile: "Young Master Nangong is too polite. Xiao already has a very deep connection with the Nangong family. Speaking of Xiao,
All lives are saved by the Nangong family, it’s just a purple ginseng, why should Young Master Nangong be so concerned about it.”
"Purple ginseng is small, but friendship is big." Nangong Liluo shook his head with a smile, paused and said: "Besides, Liluo really doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. I came here to ask for help from General Xiao, so I am not polite.
I'm really afraid that General Xiao won't help." His words and tone sounded half-joking and half-serious.
"Young Master Nangong, just tell me if you have anything to do. If Xiao can help, I will definitely do so." Xiao Yunhan was confused in his heart, but his face didn't show it, and he seemed to be very serious.
Just as he was talking, a maid came into the room with two cups of tea, served Xiao Yunhan and Nangong Liluo respectively, and stood aside quietly.
Nangong Liluo raised his eyes and looked at the maid. His eyes flashed and he realized that this was not the maid just now. He put his doubts in his heart and faced Xiao Yunhan, looking a little embarrassed.
Xiao Yunhan waved his hand towards the maid. The maid understood, bowed and exited the main hall.
"Young Master Nangong, if you have anything to do, it's okay to say it." Xiao Yunhan said to Nangong Liluo again.
Nangong Liluo smiled, as if a little embarrassed: "To be honest with General Xiao, Liluo's business in the capital has some problems, and I want General Xiao to help clear it up."
"Oh? Which capital city and which region is this business in? What problems did it encounter?" Xiao Yunhan asked doubtfully, wondering whether it was true or false.
"It's Fengcai Shop on Rongan Street in the east of the capital. Fengcai Shop is a cloth shop run by my Nangong family. Originally everything was fine, but something happened at the shopkeeper's house a few days ago, so a batch of low-quality silk was brought in.
He pretended to be high-quality silk and bought it to Concubine Jing's sister. Concubine Jing's sister was unwilling to accept the compensation. She insisted on sending the shopkeeper to jail and sealing up Fengcai Shop... It was impossible to implement it.
, I can only come to beg General Xiao." Nangong Liluo said, paused, and looked at Xiao Yunhan: "General Xiao, although the shopkeeper should be punished for doing something that goes against business ethics, it's just that the shopkeeper
He can be regarded as an old and loyal member of our Nangong family, and there is a reason for the incident. He has been in jail for a long time since he was away from the implementation. There is also Fengcai shop, which has been operating in the capital for more than ten years. It is the more important one of our Nangong family.
If the harvest is really seized, it will be a huge blow to my Nangong family, so Liluo also asks General Xiao to help." After saying that, he stood up and held his hands towards Xiao Yunhan.
Xiao Yunhan's eyes flashed slightly, and he couldn't figure out for a moment whether Nangong Liluo's words were true or false, but he hurriedly stood up and raised his hands: "Young Master Nangong doesn't have to be like this. If Xiao can help, he should do his best.
It’s just that Young Master Nangong must allow Xiao to send someone to investigate first, so that Xiao can know how to start.”
"Of course, it's good that General Xiao is willing to help. Liluo will thank General Xiao first." Nangong Liluo cupped his hands towards Xiao Yunhan again, raised his head, and said seriously: "General Xiao's kindness, Liluo
Li Luo should keep this in mind, if General Xiao has any use for Li Luo, just tell him."
"That's it, Liluo doesn't need to be so polite with Yunhan." Xiao Yunhan smiled and said sincerely, no matter what, since Nangong Liluo came here on his own initiative, he would seize this opportunity.
, win over Nangong Liluo as much as possible.
"Yes, Brother Yunhan." Nangong Liluo's eyes lit up and he said with a smile.
The two sat down again and talked casually.
After nearly an hour, Nangong Liluo and Xiao Yunhan both got up.
"Then I'll leave this matter to Brother Yunhan. Liluo thanks me again." Nangong Liluo cupped his hands and said with a smile.
Xiao Yunhan also cupped his hands and smiled lightly: "Li Luo, don't be so polite anymore. Since we are brothers, if you encounter difficulties, as your brother, you will do your best to help."
Nangong Liluo nodded and smiled boldly: "I won't say much more about Liluo. Liluo will leave first and wait quietly in the house for news about Brother Yunhan."
"Brother Yunhan will take you out." After saying that, Xiao Yunhan waved his hand and walked out of the main hall with Nangong Liluo and walked out of the mansion.
After Nangong Liluo finished speaking, he looked at Situ Chen and said, "As soon as I returned home, I went to this side room to wait for you to come. I didn't expect you to come so late."
"After dinner, I went to Prince Xuan's Mansion and Prince Yi's Mansion." Situ Chen explained lightly, thinking about what Nangong Liluo said in his mind, and asked: "Is the maid Liluo saw just now?
About six meters tall, with a handsome appearance, and a black mole at the corner of his left eye?"
Nangong Liluo thought about it seriously and shook his head: "She lowered her head and couldn't see her, but she is about 1.6 meters tall. Is there something wrong with this girl?"
Situ Chen shook his head: "Nothing, Liluo said that Xiao Yunhan has a guest before entering the house, who could it be? The situation is similar to that of the third prince."
Nangong Liluo didn't answer, knowing that Situ Chen was just asking himself in doubt, he frowned and thought for a while, and said: "Chen, from my conversation with Xiao Yunhan, I seem to feel that... when the people of the Murong family are mentioned, Xiao Yunhan's face will turn a little slightly.
Liluo felt that it was a very, very deep hatred. What happened in this?"
"According to what Xiao Yunchen said, the Xiao family was sentenced to death by the royal family, most likely the current emperor." Situ Chen replied and asked, "Has Liluo seen Xiao Yunchen?"
Nangong Liluo shook his head: "Although I haven't seen him, I mentioned that Xiao Yunhan should be very fond of his younger brother Xiao Yunchen, and he seems to hate iron for not being able to make steel."
"Li Luo's Fengcai Shop is really in trouble?" Situ Chen changed the topic again.
Nangong Liluo nodded: "Originally, Liluo wanted to ask Chen to bother Princess Zhaoxue, but now that someone is helping, I won't bother Princess Zhaoxue."
Situ Chen smiled faintly and looked at Nangong Liluo: "Does Liluo also like Xue'er?"
Nangong Liluo was stunned, his eyes flickered slightly, and he twitched the corner of his mouth in embarrassment: "Why did Chen ask this?"
"Li Luo should know me. I should pay close attention to Xue'er's affairs, including the man who gets along with Xue'er." Situ Chen said with a chuckle,
After hearing Situ Chen's words, Nangong Liluo smiled slightly: "I understand, I can't hide anything from Chen. Liluo likes Princess Zhaoxue." He smiled again, but he was very disappointed. He raised his eyes slightly, sighed, and then
Said: "When Liluo fully understands his feelings, Princess Zhaoxue's heart is already in Chen, and Liluo can only sincerely wish Chen and Princess Zhaoxue happiness forever."
As he said that, he held up the teacup: "Come on, I'll take tea instead of wine and give Chen a cup. I hope Chen will treat Princess Zhaoxue well."
