One sentence confused both of them. Fortunately, these things were not what they needed to understand, so they could just bring them up.
He and Luo Mingzhu found a pavilion on the rockery in the garden and sat down. After the maid brought tea, they all retreated far away, leaving only the two of them sitting together drinking tea and chatting.
"Cousin Tong, did Ling Rui'er want to harm you in the palace that day?" Luo Mingzhu frowned and asked about the rumored incident. She was also invited that day. It happened that Li Youmo's mother was sick, and Luo Mingzhu was in bed The former waiter didn't go. Later, when I heard the familiar lady talk about the thrilling scene, I was so frightened that I broke into a cold sweat. I immediately felt that Ling Rui'er wanted to kill Mo Xuetong.
So her tone was quite unkind at this time, as she and Ling Ruier had never dealt with each other very well.
"Forget it, it's not a big deal. Anyway, in the end, she didn't harm me but harmed others. I'm not the only one who will be dissatisfied with her." Mo Xuetong wiped the water droplets from her mouth with a handkerchief, not caring. ’s smile.
The He family now has two giant Buddhas, Concubine Yu and Concubine Zhao, placed there. If such a thing happened, they would be the only ones to be ashamed. These two are not fuel-efficient lamps. I heard that Concubine Yu knelt before Emperor Zongwen with her big belly that day. The emperor's imperial study begged and begged, and he cared more about his niece than Concubine Zhao. For this reason, the emperor was grateful for Concubine Yu's kindness, and specially gave some rewards to Concubine Yu. Relatively speaking, Concubine Zhao did not go there because she arrived late. Get any reward from the emperor.
Everyone in the palace was speculating for a while whether Concubine Jade wanted the mother to be more valuable than the son.
But no matter who the two of them are, they all have a close relationship with He Yuxiu. Even if they make a move, it depends on the hand holding the chess!
"That's right, Ling Rui'er seems to have offended a lot of people." Luo Mingzhu suddenly understood and said with a smile.
What happened that day in the Cining Palace was the Queen Mother's face. No wonder the person got angry again for a while. She was her grandniece. The Queen Mother was not punishing her, nor was she not punishing her. She was so angry and angry, how could she not? When she fell ill, the Queen Mother once planned the marriage between Mo Xuetong and Luo Mingzhu, and Luo Mingzhu did not like her very much.
"Second cousin, what is that place? Why haven't I seen it before?" Mo Xuetong suddenly pointed to a garden outside the rockery and asked in confusion.
"Where is it?" Luo Mingzhu happened to be unable to see it from this position. When he stood up, he saw the inconspicuous garden. If he hadn't been standing so high and if he hadn't been facing this direction, he really wouldn't have been able to see it. "Oh , it’s the yard behind my aunt, right? It’s been in ruins for a long time.”
That deserted garden stirred in Mo Xuetong's heart, but her face remained calm. She asked curiously: "It's such a good garden, why is it left so deserted? It would be good to clean it up and put some other things in it." It’s okay for people to live in, it looks like the courtyard is quite small.”
There are three main rooms and several side rooms on the left and right. Although it is not a large courtyard, it is enough to accommodate a few people.
"I heard..." Luo Mingzhu hesitated before lowering her voice and said, "Grandma said it was unlucky there. Someone had hanged herself there before, so she had been locked up for so many years."
In a big family, after hundreds of years, the death of a servant is really not a big deal. If that room and the entire garden were sealed off, how many courtyards would there be for people to live in in the Duke Fuguo's mansion? Mo Xuetong was very worried. I feel suspicious. The old lady is not the kind of superstitious person.
She specially brought Luo Mingzhu to this rockery just for the courtyard. Her grandmother didn't say a single word to her. It seemed that she didn't intend to tell her. In the previous life, the Fuguo Duke's palace fell, and when her grandmother was dying, she didn't say anything. Leaving a few words for herself showed that her grandmother had no explicit intentions for her.
The eldest cousin is a man and may not necessarily notice this detail, so the second cousin is the most likely person to know. Mo Xuetong always suspected that the room facing her mother's room was where the escaped Princess Jin once lived. The place, that location is both private and you can clearly see your mother.
She had had this thought before, but it was particularly strong these days.
After getting the painting sent by Qin Yufeng, she also observed it carefully. In that painting, her mother's face was particularly clear. She could clearly see the detailed expressions on her face. If such an expression was not truly vivid, It's impossible to draw the mother-in-law. The other two should be the eldest princess and Bai Yihao's mother.
It's not so clear with those two.
The profile of the eldest princess is very clear, while Bai Yihao's mother only sees her back. The appearance of the three princesses of the Jin Palace together in a painting is definitely not a coincidence, but who spent so much effort to draw it like this? What does this picture want to express? Why is it neither in the hands of my mother, nor the eldest princess, nor Bai Yihao, but ended up in the Qin Mansion, which has nothing to do with the three people? What kind of things are going on inside
Mo Xuetong made a special trip to see her grandmother today, hoping to find out more about the abandoned yard.
Deliberately dragging Luo Mingzhu out to chat and change the conversation to this aspect, she got such an unbelievable answer.
"Second cousin, it's such a pity that such a big yard is all closed up empty." Mo Xuetong asked pretending to be curious.
"That place is not good." Luo Mingzhu looked around and said hesitantly.
"What's wrong? Just one servant is gone. Isn't it a waste to open up a whole courtyard? I'll tell my second uncle later that it's a great place to study. My eldest cousin's The study can be placed there, and some flowers can be planted there. Anyway, it is so quiet and beautifully set up, and it is a good place to cool off in summer."
Mo Xuetong looked excited, as if she was about to tell Luo Bin, but her eyes were staring at Luo Mingzhu calmly.
"Cousin Tong, don't go, that yard is not good!" Luo Mingzhu thought she was going over immediately, grabbed her, pulled her back to sit in front of the table, and whispered.
"Why?" Mo Xuetong opened her dazed eyes with a look of confusion.
"It's not clean there." Luo Mingzhu's voice became lower and lower, and the hand holding Mo Xuetong felt a little cold.
"Not clean? What's the matter? Could it be that the man who hanged himself still appears?" Mo Xuetong asked in disbelief, her eyes immediately lit up, and she became more and more interested.
"You, you'd better stop asking, anyway... it's not good anyway." Luo Mingzhu didn't know what to say, so she simply advised.
"Second cousin, tell me?! If you don't tell me, I'll go find my eldest cousin in a minute and ask him to tell me." Mo Xuetong showed great interest and shook Luo Mingzhu's hand with a look of disobedience. The unforgiving look actually means that he will not give up until the result is obtained.
Seeing that Mo Xuetong was so determined to know, Luo Mingzhu sighed, and then said in a low voice: "I heard that a servant saw that place before, and there were shadows flashing past, and people's voices were also heard. Afraid of people, my grandmother told everyone not to go there, sealed the area, and told everyone not to talk nonsense, so the matter was suppressed."
"There was a figure and a human voice there? When did it happen?" Mo Xuetong was stunned for a moment, covered her mouth with a handkerchief as if she was frightened, and asked cautiously, "Is it true?"
"Of course it's true." Luo Mingzhu said with a serious face, "My grandma next to me also saw it once. She secretly told me once that I was not sensible at that time and asked my grandmother. After that, my grandmother never let me know. I went there, and the nanny next to me was transferred away from me soon."
"So weird!" Mo Xuetong said in horror with her big watery eyes open.
"Don't worry, it's okay now. As long as you don't go over there, nothing will happen." Seeing that Mo Xuetong was frightened, Luo Mingzhu patted her hand reassuringly and smiled to reassure her.
"Well, I'm not going." Mo Xuetong said obediently.
The two of them talked for a while, and then the nanny came to tell them that the old lady was awake and asked them to come over and talk.
The two people got off the rockery and returned to the old lady's yard with a group of maids and ladies. Because she had taken medicine and taken a nap, the old lady looked better than in the morning. When she saw them The two sisters came hand in hand with each other affectionately. They were very happy and talked some more.

Luo Wenyou came over to say hello for a while, then went back. There was a big exam coming soon, and he also wanted to give it a try. Although people from a family like his were not required to take the exam, but Luo Wenyou hoped to use his talents to study. I am an official, so I also have the attitude of taking a test this time.
Mo Xuetong and Luo Mingzhu chatted with the old lady for a while, and then they heard from people outside that Luo Bin had returned home. One of them was a niece and the other was a daughter. Of course they wanted to visit them. When they were about to go over, Luo Bin said He came over by himself, sat down and drank tea for a while, and said a few words. Seeing that it was getting late, the two of them were about to go back home.
Looking at the two sisters who looked like two sisters, the old lady felt so happy that she had people carry a lot of food for them. They had to wait for a while and a half to load everything into the car before they could leave. Luo Mingzhu arrived again. Inside, she went to say goodbye to her mother, while Mo Xuetong and Tuoluo Mingzhu said goodbye to their second aunt, while she was left to talk to the old lady, Luo Bin.
Luo Mingzhu didn't come back until everything was ready outside. The two of them got into their respective carriages and went home separately.
Sitting in the carriage, her mind kept turning around the words "yard, painting, mother, eldest princess, Princess Shuanglan". She always felt that there was an invisible net connecting them, but she couldn't find the most critical one. One link, so some mysteries cannot be solved to this day.
The person who painted this painting should have met my mother, and more than once, otherwise he would not be able to portray her charm. So if he painted the eldest princess from one side, does it mean that the person did not see the eldest princess clearly, or She said that she had no chance to see clearly the appearance of the eldest princess, as for Princess Shuanglan.
Mo Xuetong was more willing to believe that that person was helping Princess Shuanglan conceal her identity, so her face was not shown at all in the painting.
Who would do this
What is the purpose of doing this? Aren't you afraid of arousing suspicion? Anyone who has seen the mother and Princess Mingzhu will know that the three above must be the two of them. As for the other one, will anyone doubt it? And how did this painting get to the Qin Mansion
In the last life, Mo Xuetong had also seen that painting, but she only knew that the youngest girl in the painting was her mother. She had never seen the eldest princess, so she didn't know her. As for Princess Shuanglan, she had never known her. She never thought about it, and later on, she never saw the painting again. She only once heard from Mrs. Qin that the painting was missing and it seemed that it had been stolen in the old house.
This life was completely different from the previous one. There were so many things that Mo Xuetong couldn't trace, but she had an intuition that this painting must be related to her.
And this style of painting seems exquisite, but it is also very strange.
The carriage was driving very smoothly, so smoothly that she almost didn't feel that she was on the carriage. She closed her eyes slightly, rubbed her brow, and felt a little drowsy for a while.
Suddenly the carriage was hit by something, and Mo Xuetong was hit and rushed inside. Fortunately, there was a thick mattress inside, and Mo Xuetong was just suffocating inside. Mo Lan pulled Mo Xuetong before trying to help her get up. .
"There's a traffic jam in front of Princess. There's a fight on the other side of the road!" Mo Ye poked his face in to report as the car curtain was lifted. (To be continued)
