The second master of the Chen family, during the incident, Chen Chong led dozens of guards from the Duke's Mansion, crossed the streets and alleys, and stormed the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion in a threatening manner. This incident has caused quite a stir in the capital for the past two days.
The Marquis's Mansion was attacked, and it was a serious crime to lose one's head.
But if you talk about it on a small scale, it can be so small that even the government doesn't need to come forward.
The attacking party was from Chen Guogong's mansion, led by Chen Chong. When the incident happened, there was a sensation in Kyoto.
However, this incident did not cause serious consequences.
Although the gates of the Ningyuan Hou's Mansion were all demolished, the Yu family didn't say anything, and the government wouldn't come to the house to make them feel uncomfortable.
Yesterday's movement was really not small, not only the Chen family and Yu family, but also the Zeng family, Cui family, Qin family, and many officials from the King of Shu family all went to Yu's mansion, although I don't know how the matter was resolved later , but the matter did not make a big fuss, and soon subsided.
Li Yi knew about this matter yesterday, but he was only a little surprised. Fighting in the nest is a common practice of the King of Shu family, so it's not surprising.
He is now listening to Xiaocui complaining that someone made trouble in Buzhuang yesterday. Although he was kicked out later, he said some nasty things that even she couldn't bear to listen to.
That lady is very nice and kind. She has taught the young lady a lot. Now the little clothes that the young lady sews are not so ugly.
"Who was making trouble yesterday?" Li Yi looked at her and asked.
Xiao Cui thought for a while and said, "What is it, Mr. Yu? It seems to be the Marquis of Ningyuan or something. I can't remember clearly..."
Li Yi was taken aback, Ning Yuanhou—why do these three words sound so familiar
It seems that the patriarch of the Yu family that the eldest princess can't see is some kind of Ningyuanhou. In the rumored Neidoumen incident in Kyoto this morning, Ningyuanhou also seems to be the leading actor.
The Yu family, what a coincidence...
The Yu family bullies people so much, God will accept it, he shook his head, and asked Xiaocui: "You just said, what happened to the lady who has been very close to your lady in the past few days?" ?”
"This..." Xiaocui blinked her eyes and said, "I met you last time at the cloth shop. That lady's female celebrity is very good, and she taught the lady to make children's clothes..."
"Do you know which wife it is?"
Although the two girls were protected by people, Li Yi didn't want to give them the feeling that they were being watched all the time. Apart from ensuring safety, they would not interfere in other matters.
Even so, a lady appeared beside her inexplicably, so she still needs to find out the details.
"I don't know, I only know that her surname is Chen. The lady never said it, and we can't ask directly, but ah, she usually comes out with many guards..."
Xiaocui blinked her eyes twice, patted her head, and said: "By the way, that lady is not very old, but her hair is all white. That maid called her, 'Miss San'..."
"Miss San, surnamed Chen, her hair is all white?" Li Yi was stunned, "It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"
…
On the street, Zeng Zuimo walked side by side with the white-haired woman. The latter turned her head to look at her and asked, "Is there nothing difficult for you after the Yu family?"
Zeng Zuimo shook his head and said, "No, this is the capital, they dare not act recklessly."
"After all, the Yu family is powerful, so it's better to be careful." She reminded, and said, "If the Yu family makes things difficult for you in the future, you can come to Chen Guogong's mansion to find me."
Although the two have met several times these days, due to their own reasons, they are usually referred to as "Mrs. Chen" and "Miss Zeng", and they have not actively revealed their identities. Zeng Zuimo has already guessed her from yesterday's incident. His identity is not ordinary, but he still didn't expect that it would be so unusual.
Even today's Zeng family can't compare with a behemoth like the Chen family.
Soon, putting these thoughts behind her, she nodded politely, turned her eyes away, and suddenly realized that she was about to reach Yangliu Lane, she stretched out her hand and pointed forward, and said, "My house is on In front, madam, do you want to go in and have a seat?"
Hearing this, the white-haired woman hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"Isn't the girl from the capital?" When the two walked forward, the white-haired woman suddenly asked.
This area belongs to the downtown area, there are no deep houses, and officials and wealthy families would not choose to build houses here. This Miss Zeng has an extraordinary temperament and has such a shop in Kyoto. She thought that the other party was also the daughter of such a family. Now it seems that this is not the case.
"I stayed in Kyoto for a few years when I was a child, and then I went to other places, and I only came back last year."
Zeng Zuimo brought this matter up in one sentence, and she didn't want to mention certain memories about Kyoto, even including her name.
After all, more than ten years ago, the Zeng family was once prominent, but the Zeng family was of the same direct line, all the males died, and the females were filled into the Jiaofang Division. Everything here was extremely terrifying to her. remember.
The white-haired woman didn't ask any more questions, the two walked to an alley, Zeng Zuimo smiled and pointed inside, and said, "It's inside."
Above the entrance of the alley, there is a stone plaque with three big characters "Yangliu Alley" written on it.
The white-haired woman just took a glance, then walked in side by side with Zeng Zuimo, walked a few steps, suddenly stopped, and murmured: "Yangliu Lane?"
As if remembering something, she turned her head to look at Zeng Zuimo with an expression of disbelief and expectation, "Miss Zeng... Could it be Miss Zuimo from Yangliu Lane?"
Hearing her name from someone she had never revealed her identity made her completely ignore that the "Yangliu Lane" in front of her was not the "Miss Zeng Family", her body trembled and her face turned pale.
However, after that Mrs. Chen said this, the expression on her face was different from what she had imagined.
Accident, surprise, and even a little bit of... love
Just seeing her reaction, Chen Miaoyu knew that her guess just now was correct, took her hand, with a smile on her face, and said: "So it's you, I should have asked, I should have asked …”
On the contrary, Zeng Zuimo was a little confused by her reaction, and asked in confusion, "Mrs. Chen, you... you know me?"
Chen Miaoyu held her hand and said with a smile, "Let's go in and talk."
Zeng Zuimo was dragged by her, and walked into the alley in a daze.
"Okay, I'll go first. Your lady or Miss Ruoqing is back, just tell them." In the small courtyard, Li Yi stood up, patted Xiaocui on the head, and said, "Next time you come At that time, I will also bring two glass mirrors for you and Xiaozhu."
"Really!" Xiaocui's eyes were shining brightly, she had been envious of the mirror in Miss's room that could clearly reflect people's shadows for a long time.
"Well, what you say is what you say." Li Yi walked to the gate of the courtyard, turned around and waved, "Let's go."
He raised his hand to open the door, but the door was pushed open from the outside.
"Didn't expect, you knew before..."
Zeng Zuimo turned her head and walked in while talking to Mrs. Chen. When she stepped into the threshold, her chest was suddenly pressed against something. She turned her head, looked at Li Yi who was standing at the door, and lowered her head again.
Looking at Miss Zeng and Miss Chen San standing at the door, Li Yi's mouth grew slightly, and he could swear with his conscience that he really just wanted to open the door just now.
"You're back, what a coincidence..."
His complexion remained unchanged, and he helped her tidy up her skirt, and said with a smile.
