Chapter 697; Speculation

Author: Ran Xi Nian

After lunch that day, the two accompanying maids returned to the capital.

Before returning to the city, Wen Miaomiao specially found Cheng Lixue's maid because she was worried that Cheng Lixue still did not understand the meaning of Lu Yaoyao's words.

So I made a special trip to find Cheng Lixue's maid and asked for advice.

"Miss, did you really say that?"

In the back house of the Wen family, Wen Miaomiao's mother Su was slightly startled when she heard what her maid said, and she frowned and asked.

She has been in the capital all year round. Although she lives in the back house, she has a wide circle of friends. From time to time, she will have friends come to have tea and chat.

The ladies in the back house talk about nothing more than the host's parents' problems with the Li family, or the latest news in the capital.

Judging from the news we have received recently, the capital city is very peaceful, and there is no sign of trouble happening at all?

Why did my daughter have to arrange for someone to come back to report it?

"In my opinion, this girl is just playful and wants to play with the princess for a few more days."

Su Shi smiled helplessly and shook her head.

"No, madam, these words are not actually said by the young lady. They were said by Princess Wanfu during a casual chat. And from what the young lady means, Princess Wanfu meant to mention something."

"Oh? The princess said that?"

Su, who was a little indifferent just now, immediately became serious?

"Can you be there?"

The maid nodded.

"Do you still remember the conversation that young lady had with Princess Wanfu?"

"Tell me everything."

Then the maid told everything she remembered, and even imitated some of the tone at that time.

After hearing this, Su's expression became serious.

She also heard that Princess Wanfu was mentioning something. Maybe she didn't want to explain the specific situation because of the special nature of the matter.

"Well, you did a good job. Go back and serve the lady."

"Mama Zhao, watch and reward."

After the maid left, she quickly asked the maid next to her to go to the front yard to see if the master was at the house. If not, she asked her to arrange for someone to look for him outside.

About a time after burning the incense, Wenxuan came to Su's place.

As soon as he entered the door, he asked doubtfully, "Madam, why are you so anxious? I also plan to go to my colleagues to discuss official matters."

"Master, come and sit."

Mrs. Su stood up to greet him, pulled Wenxuan to the side and sat down, and then sent everyone waiting in the room out.

Seeing her like this, Wenxuan was a little confused, what was going on, and why she had to be so cautious.

"Master, is something big happening in our capital?"

Hearing this, Wenxuan was a little stunned and didn't react for a while.

Something big has happened. I haven't heard of anything big happening in the capital.

"What nonsense are you talking about? The capital is calm right now, how can there be any major events?"

He frowned and looked at his wife, really confused as to why she would say such a thing.

"It's not me who said it, it was Princess Wanfu who went to Chengyuan Villa today where Miaomiao went."

"What did the princess say?"

Wenxuan also looked at it seriously.

Princess Wanfu, you are now a very powerful person in Dongzhou. Sheng Chong is unparalleled. She has come into contact with so many things that ordinary people from far away can't compare.

There are even some things that even his father may not know as much as Princess Wanfu.

"What's going on? Please tell me in detail."

Mrs. Su quickly told her what the maid Wen Miaomiao had just come back to remind her, and what the maid had learned from Lu Yaoyao.

After listening, Wenxuan frowned.

Lu Yaoyao is not a person who talks randomly. If she can give such a meaningful reminder, there is a high probability that something big is about to happen.

Nowadays, there are not many things that can cause shock in the capital, and even fewer that can make Lu Yaoyao take it seriously.

"What on earth could it be?"

He couldn't figure it out for a while. There were no special circumstances in the court recently.

Why would you give me such a reminder?

"I also heard that this not only reminded us, but she also reminded the Cheng family in the past."

"That being said, it's really possible that something big will happen."

Wenxuan's face slowly became serious, but he couldn't figure it out.

"It's just that there has been no special situation in the capital recently, so why would something big happen just like this?"

"If I can't figure it out, why don't you go find your father-in-law?"

Hearing this, Wenxuan nodded repeatedly, then stood up and walked out.

Wen Xiang is also at home today, reading and drinking tea in the study.

"Is father here?"

"Is it Xuan'er? Come in."

Wen Songtao put down the books in his hands, picked up a cup from the table, picked up the small teapot on the side and poured a cup.

"Didn't you say you were going to discuss official business with your colleagues? Why did you come to me here?"

Wenxuan didn't waste any words. After sitting down, he directly told what happened just now.

After hearing this, Wen Songtao's original smiling expression disappeared, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his mind was working rapidly.

Wenxuan, who was sitting next to him, didn't dare to speak. He just looked at his father honestly, waiting for him to speak.

After a long time, Wen Songtao said, "It seems that Prince Jin didn't go to court this morning, right?"

"Yes, King Jin has always been free, and he only goes to the morning court every now and then."

"Yao Yao's reminder didn't say that something big is about to happen in the capital. During this period of time, you should restrain your family members and go out less. If not, try not to go out."

Seeing that his father said the same thing, Wenxuan became even more confused.

"Father."

"Don't ask anything. You will know when the time comes. Remember what I just said. The servants in the family should also be restrained and taken care of by the eldest daughter-in-law."

Wenxuan nodded, still a little confused.

"You can think of it yourself, but don't mention it to outsiders. If anything goes wrong, watch your own head."

As soon as these words came out, Wenxuan shrank his neck and looked at his father in shock. Is this really such a big deal?

Compared to their side, the Cheng family's side is much simpler.

When Cheng Lixue's maid returned home, she directly found Mrs. Hou. She didn't say that the lady reminded her, but just said that it was Princess Wanfu who reminded her.

After hearing this, Mrs. Hou directly went to find Marquis Jianguo.

I have to say that the founding lord is indeed a character, and his brain is much brighter than that of Wenxuan.

I didn’t go into too much trouble to find out the root cause. I just told you that you should be careful at home recently and don’t show off outside.

"Master, what's going on?"

Hearing this, Marquis Kaiguo glanced at his wife and said, "I don't know the details, but since Princess Wanfu can remind her like this, then this matter is definitely not a small matter. Let's all pay attention to it."

"But."

"It's nothing but, you have recently restrained your family members and those bastard boys, and don't let them act recklessly outside."

Although he didn't know the specifics, he could vaguely guess that it was probably related to the Northland.

Nowadays, many places in Dongzhou are very peaceful and there are no disasters or disasters, but there is some trouble in the Northland.
