When Qin Wan returned to the main courtyard of Zhongyonghou's Mansion, she saw Mrs. Hu and several nuns talking about something. As soon as she saw her coming back, Mrs. Yu immediately invited her to the main hall, Mrs. Hu smiled. Holding her hand, she said, "Guan'er, these are the best ladies in Jinxiufang. They made your eighth sister's wedding dress. Now that your wedding date is fixed, you must prepare the wedding dress early. It's actually a bit late to prepare now, but they are so many that they can catch up."
Qin Wan was a little surprised, thinking of her attitude towards King Jin's case, she was somewhat ashamed. She didn't care about the ostentation of her wedding, but Mrs. Hu obviously didn't think so. Her own, but everyone in the capital knew about Qin Wan's background, with so many people watching, if there was anything wrong with Qin Wan's wedding, it would be a disgrace to the Hou family.
What's more, although Qin Wan is not obedient enough, she is now favored by the Taichang Princess and the Queen Mother because of this, and they should also be concerned about her marriage.
"Auntie, if I really can't make it in time, I don't have to follow Eighth Sister's wedding dress."
When Hu Shi heard it, he immediately laughed, "How can that be, His Highness Chi...ah no, His Highness is now Prince Rui, and you are going to be a princess. These rules cannot be ignored at all, so don't worry. Come on, let these nuns measure your figure, don't worry about anything else, these aunts will take care of it for you."
Qin Wan hesitated to speak, but Hu waved her hand and insisted on taking her to the ear room to change clothes.
A few nuns came up to measure the body, asked what she liked, and even brought a lot of tricks for her to choose. Qin Wan was surrounded by a group of people. Before that, she didn't realize that she was going to get married. , but now she suddenly had the feeling that she was about to marry into a married woman. Seeing the dazzling festive flowers in the hands of the nuns, her heart beat suddenly faster, but she thought of the unsolved case of her father, and also thought of the predicament Yan Chi was facing. , Then feel a heavy heart.
Mrs. Hu could see that Qin Wan seemed to have something on her mind, and when the nanny left, she took Qin Wan's hand again and said, "What's the matter? Are you worried about getting married?"
Qin Wan didn't have any malice towards the Hu family, but thought that her plan would conflict with the Hou family, so she couldn't accept Hu's kindness to her with peace of mind.
Qin Wanqiang smiled to himself, "No, thank you auntie for taking care of me."
Mrs. Hu sighed, "Guan'er, your father and mother are gone, and now they are just like our own. We should buy these for you."
Qin Wan smiled wryly in his heart, but didn't show it on his face, and talked with Mrs. Hu for a while before returning to Songfengyuan.
What she said with Yan Chi that day shocked her a lot. She was ready to leave the Hou Mansion before, but now it seems that it will be more than just moving out from the Hou Mansion. Qin Wan thought for a while and called Fu Ling, " You go to Han Bo, and let him hurry up as I told you before."
Fu Ling finally got an important errand, and went out after hearing this, Qin Wan thought about it, and then went out with Bai Ying.
After leaving the Hou's mansion, Qin Wan and Bai Ying went all the way to Prince Yi's mansion. Perhaps Yan Ze's eyes were about to heal, but the effects of acupuncture and decoction were getting less and less effective, but he didn't know if there were other hidden dangers. It was because of Yue Ning, Qin Wan didn't dare to relax at all.
The carriage drove slowly along the main street. Qin Wan thought of the news that he had learned in the palace in the morning. The disappearance of Xiang's child was very strange, and Qin Wan didn't need to think too much about it, and he knew that it was probably related to the struggle for the inner house.
After entering Prince Yi's mansion, Qin Wan went straight to the flower hall under the leadership of the concierge. The concierge was very familiar with Qin Wan, and said as he walked, "The princess is also here, so I should talk to His Royal Highness in the flower hall at this point." .”
Qin Wan nodded with a smile, but when she arrived at the flower hall, she didn't see Yue Ning's person. The room was quiet, and the concierge was also stunned, and hurriedly said, "Ah, maybe I went for a walk in the flower garden. The princess will wait a while, The servant will invite you now."
Qin Wan was here every time he came here, and he was already very familiar with it, so he didn't care much and let him leave first.
As soon as the concierge left, Qin Wan took Bai Ying and stood quietly at the entrance of the flower hall, but after standing there for a while, Qin Wan only heard a "clang" sound inside the flower hall, Qin Wan frowned, was there someone in the flower hall? !
As soon as this idea came out, Qin Wan realized something was wrong.
The voice she spoke to the concierge just now was not too low, if Yue Ning and the others were inside, they must have heard it, but no one greeted them...
Qin Wan glanced at Bai Ying, who also frowned suspiciously!
There are people hiding in this flower hall!
Bai Ying stepped forward and stood in front of Qin Wan. No matter who was in the room, if there were guests outside, they would never hide and not welcome them. Thinking of this, Bai Ying's eyes were filled with a bit of sternness, "Inside Who is it?! Come out!"
Bai Ying roared, but no one in the room answered, Bai Ying was feeling strange, but there was another rustling sound in the room.
No, there are still people in the room!
Bai Ying pushed the door open, the movement of pushing the door was not small, but the rustling sound did not stop, Bai Ying could hear clearly, the sound came from the Xinuang Pavilion in the flower hall, she frowned, Bai Ying walked in front, and went first He left for Xinuang Pavilion, and soon, Bai Ying's figure froze at the door of Xinuang Pavilion.
Seeing this scene behind, Qin Wan suspiciously walked over to Bai Ying's side. At a glance, Qin Wan was also startled.
There was indeed someone in the room, and it was the servant next to Yan Ze. Qin Wan narrowed her eyes. If she remembered correctly, it should be the sandalwood who read to Yan Ze.
But seeing Tan Xiang's back facing the two of them sorting out the books, Qin Wan frowned.
She didn't expect that this sandalwood was actually a deaf person.
As if to prove it, she raised her hand and knocked on the door frame, "Dangdangdang" came to a halt, and Sandalwood was still sorting out the books.
Bai Ying also understood, and immediately showed surprise.
It is absolutely impossible for ordinary rich families to use disabled people as book boys.
Bai Ying wanted to go forward, Qin Wan shook her head, turned around and left, Bai Ying naturally followed, the two left the flower hall, seeing Yue Ning and the others hadn't come back, Qin Wan subconsciously closed the door of the flower hall—
Her movement was purely subconscious, and she only realized what she was doing after the door closed.
She didn't want Yan Ze to know that she had discovered the secret of this book boy.
Seeing Qin Wan like this, Bai Ying knew what Qin Wan meant, and immediately hid all doubts.
Soon, Yue Ning supported Yan Ze's hand and returned to the outside of the flower hall. Yan Ze had a medical towel tied on his face, but he walked very freely. Behind the two of them, followed by the servant Chen Xiang, Yue Ning smiled and said, "Why did you come here? Didn't you not give an injection today? Miracle doctor Sun has returned to his house and is not here now."
Qin Wan blinked, "Could it be that you think I'm bothering you?"
Yue Ning's cheeks were slightly flushed, while Yan Ze gave a low laugh, and Yue Ning snorted, "It's clear that you only come when the needles are administered, so I don't blame me for talking about you."
Only then did Yan Ze say, "I have kept the princess waiting for a long time, please come in quickly."
Qin Wan said "Yes", and followed the two into the house. They entered the main hall, but there was no movement in the Xinuang Pavilion. So I just took a look at it casually, and it just so happens that I don’t need to help investigate the case these few days.”
Yue Ning immediately said, "Didn't King Cheng grab you and ask you to help?"
Qin Wan laughed, "The clues have been cut off for the time being, and the Kunning Palace... so we can only hold on."
Yue Ning sighed, and seeing that there was no one else in the room, she said, "The emperor is still kind to the empress dowager, and now he is defending so much, even if he wants to investigate, he can't find anything. I also heard that something happened in Cheng Wangfu, and the empress dowager was born I'm quite angry."
Qin Wan sighed, "Yes, the nine aunts of the palace had an accidental miscarriage. They kept it a secret, but the empress dowager found out. I entered the palace this morning because the empress dowager was so angry that her cough got worse. "
Several people were seated, Chen Xiang was busy serving tea, Yan Ze said, "Is the imperial grandmother alright?"
"It's all right, it's just that the weather is getting colder and colder, the empress dowager is having a hard time..."
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of footsteps. Qin Wan turned his head to look, and saw Tan Xiang coming out of Xinuang Pavilion. He didn't seem to expect that there were guests outside, and he bowed his head in panic, but didn't speak. His face changed, "Why are you still here? Beware of bumping into the princess!"
As he spoke, he stepped forward and pulled Sandalwood back out.
Yue Ning looked at it noncommittally, and Qin Wan didn't show any dew on his face.
Soon Chen Xiang entered the room, "Sandalwood is ignorant, it made the princess laugh."
Qin Wan waved his hand, indicating that there is no problem, and Yan Ze said, "Tanxiang has a disease, and he can't hear, so it's rude."
Qin Wan knew this just now, but did not show it on purpose. Unexpectedly, Yan Ze would take the initiative to mention it at this moment, and the strange feeling in Qin Wan's heart dissipated, "I must have been with you for many years, so Stay with me."
Yan Ze smiled, Qin Wan glanced at the censer in the corner, there was no smoke in the censer, but Qin Wan could smell the faint scent of agarwood in the room, it was not pure agarwood or sandalwood, but the proportion was just right, The fragrance is clear but not too greasy. Yanze's two servants, one is sandalwood and the other is agarwood, which shows his preference for incense. This thought flashed by, Yanze had already nodded, "Yes, I have been with me for many years gone."
After a pause, Yan Ze asked, "Is there any connection between the empress and the case of Prince Jin's residence?"
When Yan Ze asked such a question, Qin Wan didn't know where to start. He just said, "I think... it has something to do with it. Even a big eunuch died in the nearby palace."
Yue Ning was startled when she heard this, Yan Ze sighed and said nothing, Yue Ning said, "Third brother, you are not involved in government affairs, these matters have nothing to do with you, and the purpose of becoming king is not only to investigate cases." Qin Wan, "Do you understand? Yan Chi should remind you of this."
There was something Qin Wan didn't understand, thinking that he was here to visit a sick person today, so he changed the subject and talked about other things, but never mentioned the court affairs.
Qin Wan stayed in Prince Yi's mansion for more than half an hour before leaving. When Qin Wan left, Yan Ze's expression became a little sad. Yue Ning saw it and felt a little nervous in her heart, "What is the third brother thinking? The affairs of the court and our unrelated."
Yan Ze shook his head, "I was thinking about King Jin. The people who died in the palace were all related to the queen. It can be seen that the queen must have put a lot of effort into last year's incident. It is really a pity that King Jin was a virtuous half-life..."
Yue Ning hesitated to speak, "Third brother thinks the queen has harmed King Jin?"
Yan Ze didn't speak, but said, "Anyway, I always feel that... King Jin will not murder Concubine Jin, let alone have an affair with King Jin."
Yue Ning stepped forward to hold Yan Ze's hand, "I think so too, don't worry third brother, even if King Cheng can't find out anything, God will also watch, those who do evil things will have their own karma —”
Yan Ze was silent, "Later, let's enter the palace to see the imperial grandmother."
Although he hasn't returned to Beijing for many years, Yan Ze is still very filial to the Queen Mother, and Yue Ning complied right away.
Qin Wan left Prince Yi's Mansion, got on the carriage and ordered to go to Hou's Mansion. After leaving the square market of Prince Yi's Mansion, not long after entering the main road, Qin Wan saw a very familiar figure. That figure was not someone else. It was Li Muyun!
Qin Wan's heart moved, and he quickly asked Bai Ying to follow, but he saw Li Muyun came out of a teahouse and got into the carriage parked at the door. The driver flicked his horsewhip, and the carriage immediately began to rattle and move. Li Muyun's carriage went all the way south Leaving, Qin Wan's heart was lifted immediately.
The last time Li Muyun went to the south of the city alone, but now it is already afternoon, when the streets are most empty, Li Muyun is not in Dali Temple, where is he going? ! Qin Wan had doubts in her heart, and then watched Li Muyun go south along the road last time, she couldn't help but frowned, Li Muyun rarely had close old friends, but just seeing her was connected to him. Going to the same place twice, who is he going to meet? !
With doubts, doubts could not be suppressed, Qin Wan sat in the carriage, and after two sticks of incense, he arrived at the alley again. Qin Wan was feeling a little distressed when she couldn't climb over the wall, but she didn't expect Li Muyun's carriage to come out of the alley again. Qin Wan was surprised and was about to figure out what kind of tricks Li Muyun was playing. It turned out to be coming in her direction. She parked the carriage at the opposite corner of the street. If Li Muyun left on purpose, he would not have noticed her, but he came towards her!
Qin Wan's last sliver of luck dissipated when Li Muyun's carriage blocked her way.
The curtain of the very shabby green cloth pony carriage was lifted, revealing Li Muyun's slightly smiling face, his eyes could almost be called kindly looking at Qin Wan, and said with a smile, "Why is the princess here? What a coincidence."
Qin Wan looked at Li Muyun's appearance, and was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground, and her cheeks were slightly hot for a while, but when she thought of what Li Muyun did to the Shen family, her eyes quickly turned cold, "Unfortunately , I came here with Master Li."
