In the carriage, Princess Rongyang and Su Yan talked about the matter of the fourth prince just now, and after laughing, they were still a little worried: "Although it was fun to tease the fourth cousin just now, but my fourth cousin is the most vengeful person , you have to be careful."
"Sister, don't worry, I know." Su Yan shrugged indifferently, anyway, the idea of the fourth prince had already hit her, so she was afraid of offending him once
Princess Rongyang first sent Su Yan home before going back by herself.
As soon as Su Yan entered Uncle Anjing's mansion, Yun Zhui, who had been guarding the door, ran over: "Girl, Miss Zhong asked the maid to guard you here, and said that she must let you come back to see her." Yan put away all the smiles on his face and hurried to Xiwuyuan.
As soon as she entered the room, Su Yan saw what Zhong Ning was writing on the paper with a puzzled face, and when she saw Su Yan came back, she immediately said: "Senior Sister, something happened to Madam Gong."
As soon as Su Yan heard the words Gongmao, Su Yan's heart tightened: "What's the matter?" She originally wanted Gongmao to come back and identify the eldest lady, but then the situation changed, and she wanted to take Gongmao back It's good to come to Beijing and stay by my side, because at the beginning Gongmao was very sincere to Aunt Xu, and later in her previous life, Gongmao heard that Su Yan was found and came to Beijing. Su Yan can trust her.
Zhong Ning handed the piece of paper she wrote to Su Yan: "According to the plan, the palace maid should have arrived in the capital two days ago, but there was no news from their group, so Uncle Xu sent someone to meet him, but found that Madam Gong has already been killed, including the four bodyguards who escorted Madam Gong, they were all killed together, their bodies were thrown into a mass grave, and our people also took a lot of effort to find them."
Su Yan glanced at the densely packed words on the paper, all of which were written in detail about the murder of Grandma Gong. She couldn't figure it out, she didn't understand why Gongmao was intercepted and killed on the road? Now that the eldest lady is already like that, who else will prevent Gongmao from entering Beijing
Su Yan immediately thought of Da Furen: "How is Mrs. Lin doing now?"
Zhong Ning understood Su Yan's meaning, shook her head and said: "She didn't pretend to be crazy, she has already been sent to the village in the countryside by General Huaihua."
That's strange, besides the eldest lady, Su Yan can't think of another person who has the motive to kill the palace nurse. Grandma Gong was already in her thirties when she served Aunt Xu. More than ten years later, Grandma Gong is nearly fifty years old. If there is an enemy, it is impossible to wait until she goes to Beijing to kill her.
The only possibility is that Nanny Gong knows some secret, a secret that someone doesn't want Su Yan to know.
Su Yan almost immediately thought of Aunt Xu's almost identical bracelet with that eldest princess. Su Yan felt like there was a cloud of fog in front of her, and she couldn't shake it no matter how she moved it.
Zhong Ning and Su Yan thought about it together: "I suspect that it may be that Gong Nai knows some secret."
Su Yan was even more puzzled: "The secrets she can know as a woman are the things that happened to my aunt back then. Let Xu Bo check it out. I always feel that this matter is not that simple."
"Okay." Zhong Ning responded, and her attention immediately shifted from the matter of the maid to the flower tin on Su Yan's forehead: "Senior sister, your flower tin is so beautiful, where did you buy it? How much did you buy? Did you bring it to me?"
In fact, she noticed Su Yan as soon as she entered the door, and she wanted to ask for a long time.
"Liu Xiang is holding it, you can pick it yourself later."
Zhong Ning went to pick the flower tin happily, Su Yan couldn't help laughing at Zhong Ning's heartless look, it's great to live a simple life like Zhong Ning.
For the time being, Su Yan kept the matter of Madam Gong in her heart, but then she thought of Chu Yan again.
She didn't expect Chu Yan to leave the capital with just one move of the master, but that's fine, he went to fight for his fame, she seeks hers, and when he comes back, she will definitely give him more help.
Thinking of this, Su Yan felt a little more relaxed, took out the booklet she had written before, and pondered about her next plan.
She needs a chance, a chance to become famous in one fell swoop.
According to the usual practice, the dinner in Uncle Anjing's Mansion is eaten by the whole family, but recently one or the other is sick, and then there was something wrong with the eldest lady, the whole family has not yet sat at the same table to eat After dinner.
It just so happened that Su Jing came back from the academy today, so the old lady brought the family together. Su Rong, Su Yan, Su Jian, and Su Jing sat in a row according to seniority. Because Su Jing came back, Aunt Wang also came to the table, but she didn't sit down, she stood beside the old lady and served the old lady.
Perhaps it was because of his son's return, Uncle An Jing had a smile on his face, and it was the first time that Su Yan saw a look of love on his face.
Su Jing looked very much like Aunt Wang, with an oval face, thick eyebrows and starry eyes, and a light-colored robe that made the young man look like jade, with a gentle appearance, exactly the same as Su Yan remembered.
Su Jing is only eleven this year, but he looks old-fashioned. Before dinner, he stood up and bowed to Su Yan, "This is the fifth sister, right?" Very stable.
Su Yan stood up and replied: "It's the first time I've met my brother, but I haven't prepared any gifts yet. I happen to have a Duan inkstone with me. I think my brother can use it. I'll send it to my younger brother in a while." Younger brother, Su Yan still likes it very much.
Su Jing smiled, showing a shallow prickly dimple on his cheek: "Then I won't be polite to Fifth Sister." When sitting down, Su Jing quickly took a sneak peek at Su Yan, and then when others noticed He looked back before.
Su Yan couldn't help laughing, she was still a child after all.
Su Rong looked at Su Jing and Su Yan where they were going back and forth, lowered her eyebrows and smiled and said, "Fifth Sister and Brother Jing are very close, if you don't know, you may think you are real siblings." He also glanced at Su Jian with a smile on purpose, obviously provoking.
Su Jian acted as if she didn't hear, still looking down at the bowls and chopsticks on the table, while Su Yan just smiled and didn't speak.
The old lady only felt that Su Rong was becoming more and more outrageous recently, she immediately scolded with a sullen face, "What nonsense are you talking about? Sister Yan and Brother Jing are brothers and sisters!"
After Su Rong was reprimanded by the old lady, she felt that she couldn't hold back her face, and seeing that the seat where the old lady sat was empty in the past, she felt even more upset. From Su Rong's point of view, these people clearly wanted to bully her because of her mother's absence.
"Okay, let's eat." Uncle An Jing glanced at Su Rong displeasedly, and then said to Su Jing with a smile on his face: "Brother Jing, eat more, no matter how good the food at the academy is, it can't compare to the food at home. "In Uncle An Jing's heart, daughters will always lose money, and only sons are his roots.
Su Jing immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks, stood up and bowed to Uncle An Jing, "Thank you father, and father will also eat more. You seem to be thinner than before when you come back this time."
Aunt Wang looked at Su Jing with a gentle smile on her face.
Flatterer! Su Rong gave Su Jing a gouging look in her heart.
Uncle An Jing smiled kindly: "Hurry up and sit down to eat. You don't have to be formal at home. I'm doing activities for you these days. When autumn comes, you will be able to enter the Imperial College. Then you don't have to go so far away from home to study. .”
Uncle An Jing scolded Lin Jingxiao secretly in his heart. He said it well before, but Lin Jingxiao suddenly regretted it the day before yesterday, but luckily the Fourth Prince was still willing to help him.
Thinking of what the Fourth Prince said to him this afternoon, Uncle An Jing glanced at Su Yan, and then said to the old lady: "Mother, my son plans to entertain His Highness the Fourth Prince in a few days, you should make preparations in the next few days."
"Don't worry." The old lady didn't doubt that he was there, she immediately complied, and she was even happy that Uncle An Jing could win the favor of the Fourth Prince.
Su Yan looked at the old lady full of joy, and sighed in her heart. In fact, her grandmother is good at everything, but she can't see the situation clearly, she only knows to support her son blindly.
But looking at Uncle An Jing's appearance, it seemed that he didn't know that he and Princess Rongyang had played with the Fourth Prince, otherwise, according to Uncle An Jing's virtue, he would have taken her to make amends to the Fourth Prince at this time.
The meal was quite uneventful, after dinner, Su Yan specially asked Liu Xiang to send the Fang Duan inkstone to Su Jing. Su Jing also asked Liu Xiang to bring back two fans he had just painted as a gift to Su Yan.
