Scheme of the Official Descendant

Before the spoon was dropped in the yard, Xiangqin went back to Lin's house and told Ren Yaoqi about today's events in detail.

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help laughing at her beaming face.

"Miss, you don't know. Today, the mother of the Lin family begged for the purse as soon as she saw Mrs. Fang and Miss Jiu came back. Although Miss Jiu's face was not very good, she asked the maid to go down to get it. Of course, the purse disappeared. You didn't look at it at the time. See the expression on the face of the Lin family's mother. Oh, I'm so happy to die my servant!"

Ren Yaoqi glanced at her with a smile: "You didn't get caught this time, did you?"

Xiangqin hurriedly said: "Miss Wu, don't worry, there will be absolutely no mistakes this time. Besides, Mrs. Fang and Miss Jiu have both gone out, and this matter is absolutely unknown. Speaking of which, Young Master Fang is really dumb. The purse on my body has been changed several times without realizing it.”

"Okay, you've worked hard today, go down and rest." Ren Yaoqi smiled.

Xiangqin agreed, and went down with a smile on her face. Before leaving, she said with a smile: "It's different if the fifth lady goes out, let's see if they dare to bully our third lady!"

At this time, in the other courtyard of Ren's family, Ren Yaoying directed a roomful of maidservants to look for purses everywhere, but unfortunately they didn't even find a single one.

Chun'er, Ren Yaoying's maidservant, looked frustrated: "My slave clearly remembers keeping it in the closet, so why did it disappear?"

Ren Yaoying frowned: "Look carefully to see if it is wrapped in clothes."

"I have opened and looked at the clothes one by one..."

Madam Fang, who had been sitting silently by the side, suddenly interrupted: "Forget it, don't look for it."

Ren Yaoying looked at Mrs. Liu: "Auntie, what does the Lin family mean? Why did you suddenly remember to ask me for a purse? This is the first time I have heard of the things I gave away! The purse is gone!"

Mrs. Liu lowered her eyes, sighed for a while, "We have been tricked."

Ren Yaoying was taken aback: "Auntie, you mean..."

Mrs. Liu shook her head and was about to speak when a woman beside her came in and whispered something in Mrs. Liu's ear.

Liu frowned involuntarily, and the frown became tighter.

Ren Yaoying walked in, only to hear the woman's last sentence: "...that's all I found. We didn't bring many people, and most of them went out."

Ren Yaoying recalled the words, and asked suspiciously: "Aunt, is it that the third sister is playing tricks?"

Mrs. Liu waved the woman out, then sighed and looked at Ren Yaoying: "Your mother said before that they are nothing to worry about, but it seems that she was mistaken. I told you to bear with me before, don't talk to Ren Yaoying at this juncture. She fights for that moment of anger, but you just don't listen."

Ren Yaoying bit her lips: "I did it very carefully. Didn't the third sister find no evidence? Besides, they are deadly enemies with us. Even without this incident, they wouldn't make it easier for us."

Mrs. Liu glanced at Ren Yaoying, sighed, but didn't say anything after all.

On the morning of the second day, Ren Yaoqi was playing with Brother Cen in Ren Shijia's house, when the porter came to report that Mrs. Fang Liu had come again.

Mrs. Liu still came to see Mrs. Lin San today.

Ren Shijia was soft-tempered, and in the end he still refused to take Mrs. Liu to see Mrs. Lin San. This time, Ren Yaoqi did not go with him, but Ren Shijia came back not long after.

Mrs. Lin San is in poor health today and does not want to see guests.

Ren Yaoqi was surprised and said: "Why is the third wife suddenly ill? We haven't heard of it in the mansion."

Ren Shijia cleaned his hands and took Brother Cen from the nanny. The old lady Ren found another nanny for Brother Cen, and there was no need for Ren Shijia to nurse him herself.

"I see that the third sister-in-law is not sick, but she just doesn't want to see her cousin. After I sent my cousin away just now, the third sister-in-law ordered the maid next to her to come and tell me that I can take Brother Cen there when I have time." Playing with Sister Ling. This is hinting to me, don't bring outsiders there in the future." Ren Shijia breathed out, "I don't want to get involved in their affairs, this is the best, and it ends up clean."

Ren Yaoqi smiled when she heard the words, sat next to Ren Shijia to tease Brother Cen, and stopped talking about Liu's affairs.

In the afternoon, Ren Yaoqi went to Yanbei Prince's Mansion by appointment.

Seeing Ren Yaoqi, Xiao Jinglin said, "I thought you wouldn't come today."

Ren Yaoqi smiled and went forward to hold Xiao Jinglin's arm, followed her to the Nine Sun Palace of the princess, and whispered in her ear: "Of course I want to come, otherwise the princess will be lazy playing the piano again. And yesterday , Thank you Princess for your help."

Madam Fang and Ren Yaoying did not go to Su's house yesterday but came to Yanbei Palace because Ren Yaoqi sent a letter to Xiao Jinglin asking her to do a favor.

Xiao Jinglin shook her head, she didn't care, and said: "I'm not lazy, sir said that my piano skills have improved a lot, and I've made great progress!" Xiao Jinglin's expression was serious.

Ren Yaoqi glanced at her jokingly: "That's just right, I haven't heard you play the piano for a day, let's see if there is a thousand miles of difference."

The two were talking and laughing as they walked towards the Nine Suns Palace, but they were stopped by a maid on the way, and Xiao Jinglin frowned when she saw the maid.

"Princess, the old concubine invites you to visit the Shou'an Hall."

"Grandma, did you tell me what you want from me?" Xiao Jinglin returned to her expressionless expression.

The servant girl lowered her head and said: "I don't know, the old concubine just asked the servant girl to invite the princess."

Xiao Jinglin stopped talking, turned to Ren Yaoqi and said, "I'll come as soon as I go, you can go to Jiuyang Palace and wait for me first."

Ren Yaoqi was about to agree, but she didn't want the servant girl to say: "The old concubine asks Miss Ren to go with the Princess."

Xiao Jinglin glanced at the maid, then at Ren Yaoqi.

Ren Yaoqi hurriedly smiled and said: "I have never had a chance to meet the old concubine, I will go there with the princess."

Xiao Jinglin didn't say anything more, and led Ren Yaoqi around the Jiuyang Hall and walked towards the Shou'an Hall.

When approaching Shou'an Hall, Xiao Jinglin whispered in Ren Yaoqi's ear: "When I see my grandmother later, try to speak as little as possible, and make fewer mistakes. If you have a difficult answer, I will answer it for you."

Hearing this, Ren Yaoqi couldn't help feeling warm in her heart, she nodded and smiled at Xiao Jinglin.

Xiao Jinglin squeezed Ren Yaoqi's hand, then let go.

The scale of Shou'an Hall is smaller than that of Jiuyang Hall, but it is still very grand, and it is also located on the central axis of the palace.

When Ren Yaoqi followed Xiao Jinglin in, there were already several people sitting in the hall.

The old concubine was sitting at the top, wearing a mud-gold base with the swastika on her head, embroidered with a hundred birds and phoenix patterns, with full sleeves, giving her a majestic aura. Sitting next to her was a middle-aged woman whose face was somewhat similar to hers. She was dressed in a magnificent red beige with ten patterns of brocade makeup, and the girl in a purple dress who was sitting next to the old princess was once with her. Xiao Jinglin fought Wu Yiyu.

Ren Yaoqi followed Xiao Jinglin to salute, the woman was the only daughter of the old concubine, the wife of Wu Xiaohe, the general soldier of Ningxia.

"I heard that Lin'er is practicing the piano recently? How is the practice?" Mrs. Wu looked at Xiao Jinglin and asked with a smile.

Xiao Jinglin said softly, "I'm still practicing, I can't play well."

Mrs. Wu looked at the old concubine and smiled: "I just said that it's been so long since I came back, and I haven't seen Liner a few times. It's weird."

The old concubine glanced at Xiao Jinglin: "Don't say you haven't seen her a few times, it's hard for me to see her. Every time I have to urge her four times."

Mrs. Wu smiled at the side: "Mother and concubine are joking, I see Lin'er as a filial person. Yiyu met her once at Mrs. Yuntai's place the day before yesterday."

Ren Yaoqi took a look at Xiao Jinglin, seeing her standing there without changing her face, pretending that she didn't hear these words with guns and sticks.

The old concubine sneered, and turned her head to drink tea.

Mrs. Wu's gaze turned to Ren Yaoqi's face, and she said with a smile: "This girl looks pretty. But... why does she look familiar? Could it be that I have seen her before?"

The old concubine also looked at Ren Yaoqi, thoughtfully: "She is younger than Yu'er, where have you seen her before? It's just that she looks similar to someone you've seen. You are the granddaughter of King Fei Xian ?” The last sentence was asked to Ren Yaoqi.

Ren Yaoqi lowered her head slightly: "Yes, old princess."

The old concubine said to Mrs. Wu: "When you were young, I took you to the capital to celebrate the late emperor's birthday. You were still young at that time, so you probably don't remember."

Mrs. Wu suddenly realized: "If you don't say that my daughter is forgotten." She turned her eyes to Ren Yaoqi, with some meaning, "It really looks a bit like that person."

Although Ren Yaoqi stood there pretending to be dumb, she was like a bright mirror in her heart.

The person the mother and daughter are talking about should be King Xian's biological mother, Concubine Wan.

The old concubine is the daughter of the first emperor, and her grandfather Xian Wang is brother and sister, so naturally she has met Concubine Wan Gui.

In the last life in Kyoto, some people said that she was somewhat similar to the late Concubine Wan.

Wu Yiyu sat on the old concubine and asked suspiciously: "Grandmother, mother, who are you talking about? Who does she look like?"

The old concubine touched her head, her eyes softened a lot, and she said with a smile: "You don't even know it. When your grandmother brought your mother back to Beijing, she was just your age."

Wu Yiyu pouted, the aggressive girl outside looked a little cute at the moment: "Then when will you take me to the capital?"

Mrs. Wu scolded with a smile: "What are you doing in Kyoto?"

The old concubine said to Mrs. Wu: "Okay, don't you have something to ask Lin'er?"

Mrs. Wu remembered the business and stopped joking with her daughter, turned her head to look at Xiao Jinglin, and said to the old concubine, "Concubine mother, look at the child is still standing."

The old concubine waved her hand and asked Xiao Jinglin to sit down with Ren Yaoqi, and Ren Yaoqi followed Xiao Jinglin until she started.

"It's been a while since Lin'er came back. Will she live in Yunyang City?" Mrs. Wu thought for a while and asked with a smile.

Xiao Jinglin glanced at her, and said in a low voice, "Follow father's arrangement."

Mrs. Wu took a sip of tea and smiled warmly: "Speaking of which, Lin'er is not young anymore. She is a girl again. It is better to stay with her parents. There are some rough men at the border. You were fine when you were young." , I always go there when I am old, what will happen to my reputation in the future?"

Xiao Jinglin's expression remained unchanged, she nodded after thinking about it, "Thank you, aunt, for worrying. When it comes to rough men... not only in Jiajingguan, but also in Ningxia. Aunt and cousin can stay in Ningxia for so long If she is young and has a good reputation, Jing Lin will naturally not be afraid."

"Presumptuous!" The old concubine scolded coldly, "Why did you talk to the elders!"

Mrs. Wu's complexion was also very ugly, Wu Yiyu's eyes were shot on Xiao Jinglin's face like knives, her face was gloomy.

Xiao Jinglin glanced at the three of them, and bent her lips: "I'm sorry, Auntie. I grew up in the border gate, and I speak straight. Don't bother with me, a junior. But I think you should understand what I'm saying to you. There is no malice in the words."

Mrs. Wu took a deep breath and forced a smile on her face: "It's good that you understand that my aunt has good intentions. Lin'er, the reason why my aunt came back to Yanbei this time is because the prince sent a letter to your uncle before. Have you ever heard about it?"

Xiao Jinglin shook her head: "I don't know, my father never mentioned it to me."

Mrs. Wu smiled and said: "Oh? I heard that the prince trusts your daughter very much and allows you to go in and out of the study like your second brother. You also know that the son is far away in the capital, and your father is the only one beside you. Son, but his body..."

Xiao Jinglin frowned, and said directly: "Auntie, you may as well speak up if you want to ask anything." She hated this kind of way of speaking that was tempting and probing, and couldn't come up with an idea for a long time. If it wasn't for her elders present here, she would have left long ago.
