At noon, Miss Yao II wrote back to Su Xuan. The letter was in Zhulan's hand, and Zhulan called Su Xuan over.
Su Xuan sat down without taking the letter. "Mom, you can read it as well. Just send it to me after you finish reading it."
Zhu Lan shook her head. "This is your letter. You should read it. If it contains any useful information, just tell me."
She still has a bottom line, which is respect for her daughter-in-law.
Su Xuan felt a warm feeling in her heart. She really didn't care, but her mother-in-law's attitude warmed her heart. She picked up the letter, which was quite thick. After taking it out, she realized that there were two letters in total, one for Xue Han and the other for her.
The more Su Xuan looked at it, the tighter her pupils became. She took it and handed it to her mother-in-law, "Mom, take a look."
Zhulan took it. There was not much content in the letter, but it revealed two pieces of information. First, the Fifth Prince who returned to Beijing was fake. Second, she seemed to have seen the real Fifth Prince in Lin's Mansion. Finally, it said that he would leave tomorrow.
Zhulan was indeed shocked. Was the Fifth Prince really in the Lin Mansion? She felt that Miss Yao II would not be wrong. Thinking of the five posts, Zhulan's eyes darkened. So the most unlikely thing was actually the most likely one. The arrogant Lin Mansion had always been stupid in everyone's eyes. So were they all deceived
Su Xuan said, "No wonder Miss Lin doesn't dare to plot against Miss Yao even if she is so bold. She has the confidence."
Zhulan closed the letter and said, "Our family owes Miss Yao Er a favor."
Su Xuan hurriedly said, "Mom, I asked this question, so I am the one who owes you the favor."
This cannot involve the entire Zhou family, otherwise we would owe them a huge favor.
Zhu Lan smiled and said, "What do you mean by yours and mine? You are the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, and this is what the Zhou family owes you. However, Miss Yao Er knows very well what she is facing, and she is trying to make good connections!"
Su Xuan felt upset, "Miss Yao Er is a rare intelligent woman."
Zhulan was also very sad, so she had to repay the favor.
Zhulan kept Su Xuan's letter. The content of the letter was terrible. Zhulan was afraid that something might happen when she gave it to Xuehan. She took a quick look at it and found that there was nothing wrong with it. She was surprised that Miss Yao II liked Xuehan so much.
After Su Xuan left, Mrs. Song lowered her head and said, "Madam, I want to go out for a while."
Zhulan: "Yeah."
Mrs. Song left in a hurry because the news she received today was too important. She didn't know whether her companions knew it. She only knew that she would report it if she knew it.
At the Yao Mansion, Yao Zheyu stood at the sister's door with a very complicated look in his eyes. He hadn't found out where the real Fifth Prince was, but the sister had discovered him. Should he say that he was worthy of being the old man's child
Yao Yao raised her head and said, "Brother, I saved myself."
What's the difference between telling you and the emperor knowing it? Although it is possible that the emperor knew it a long time ago, giving it to the Zhou family is a favor. Her mood improved a little. In fact, even if the Zhou family didn't write to her, she would have written it.
Yao Zheyu pursed his lips, "You know, if the Zhou family knew, the emperor would also know. You are too smart and have done a lot of good things."
Yao Yao laughed softly, "I have no way out, what else do I have to be afraid of?"
Yao Zheyu was silent. His sister was right.
The news from Jinzhou arrived at the palace. The emperor raised his eyebrows after reading it, and then handed it to the prince.
The prince's heart beat faster. First, he was surprised that his father told him such important news. Second, he had been waiting for a long time and did not expect that the fifth brother had been under his nose all the time. In other words, there was a considerable force in Jinzhou City helping the fifth brother.
The prince held the paper in his hand, his face gloomy. Jinzhou was too close to the capital. The distance was so close that it felt like someone was holding a knife to his neck.
The emperor looked at the prince getting angry, raised his eyebrows in appreciation, and looked like him. "It seems that Miss Yao Er is not bad."
The prince admitted, "Yes."
The emperor added: "What a pity. Fortunately, it's not a man."
For a man, one Yao Zheyu is enough, it is better for one more to be dead.
The prince still looked unhappy. The emperor smiled and said, "You are still too young. You should be happy now. Look, another clue has been found. This is a happy event."
Pulling out radishes with mud, a lot of them were brought out this time. Next year will be the provincial examination, and the year after will be the spring examination. That's great, there must be a lot of vacant positions.
The prince smiled, "It is indeed a happy thing."
At the Second Prince's residence, the Second Prince to the Fourth Prince gathered together. It was a rare sight to see them all working together. They all went to the Fifth Brother's residence to inquire about the matter, and now they have come back together.
The second prince waved his fan in the middle of winter, "It's hard to guess what my father is thinking."
The third prince pouted, "Second brother, it's winter now, stop pretending, put down the fan."
He was really fed up with the second brother who always carried a fan with him.
The fourth brother laughed and said, "Second brother, I will give you a fur fan tomorrow. It is just right for winter."
Lao Er gritted his teeth. He really wanted to slap himself. Why did he ask these two bastards to come back together? "Goodbye."
The Third Prince drank his tea and said, "Old Five should be anxious."
The fourth brother smiled and said, "Just guard the main gates. The fifth brother can't fly."
The second brother rolled his eyes in his heart. No one is easy to deal with. He was tired just thinking about it. He waved his hand and said, "Get lost, hurry up and leave."
The third prince sneered. When he wanted to come, he would not have wanted to come if he had not been afraid that these two bastards would make him take the blame.
The fourth brother also stood up and walked to the door, then turned around and said, "Ah, second brother, fake ones are easier to deal with than real ones. You won't show mercy this time, will you?"
The three of them looked at each other and knew what was going on. The power behind Lao Wu was so great that it frightened them. The three of them had the same idea in their minds: to kill the real Lao Wu and keep the fake one.
At night, Zhou Shuren came back and read the letter. "Speaking of which, the Lin family hates merchants the most. The Lin family never allows merchants to visit, and will not invite any merchant families. After reading this letter, everything makes sense, because they want to cover up!"
Zhu Lan said, "I think the eldest lady of the Lin family and the fifth prince are also unusual. The eldest lady of the Lin family plotted against the second lady of the Yao family, probably for the fifth prince."
Zhou Shuren asked, "I don't know Miss Lin. You have met her daughter. Do you think she is pretending or is she real?"
Zhu Lan smiled and said, "Ms. Lin is not pretending, this is her nature. As the only legitimate daughter, she is naturally arrogant."
Zhou Shuren put down the letter and said, "Come to think of it, the emperor already knew that the fifth prince was in the Lin residence."
Zhulan smiled, "I think so too."
The fact that the emperor let the fake fifth prince stay in Jinzhou was actually a hint.
Zhou Shuren glanced at the letter and said, "It is said that a person's handwriting reflects his character. If our son is the same age as Second Miss Yao, Second Miss Yao would be a good candidate for our son's daughter-in-law."
Of course, the prerequisite is that Miss Yao Er’s surname is not Yao.
Zhu Lan was silent for a moment, "No one will marry Miss Yao Er anymore."
Zhou Shuren hummed. This was the cruelty of the ancient family. "I guess it will be time to grant the fifth prince his next marriage in a few days."
Zhu Lan was very curious, "What do you think the emperor will choose for the fifth prince?"
