Chapter ninety-eight, disguised as a woman, little uncle
Steward Qi looked anxiously at the city gate. He had been waiting for a long time. He had been waiting here early in the morning just to meet Yu Xijiao. Today is the day of the funeral of Zhengyuan Hou Mansion. The girl should come out with him.
.
Qi Guan has something urgent to do.
I thought that if I waited at the city gate, I would definitely see people, but I didn't expect that there were so many passers-by who saw the mourning. Before the coffin reached the city gate, it was already surrounded for several floors. They were all talking about the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion.
There was a commotion just now, and everyone in the discussion said that this matter was strange. First, who was the child in Yu Lanyan's belly? Second, Prince Xin Kangbo was very suspicious. Third, there was something hidden about the fire in Zhengyuan Hou Mansion...
…
Because of these topics, passers-by talked a lot, and many people crowded to the city gate early to watch the excitement.
Manager Qi was originally standing in a good position, but then he was squeezed again and again and had to move back.
The funeral procession from the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion came over. Even though Manager Qi found the carriage of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, he couldn't squeeze through. He could only raise his hands and wave at the carriage, waiting for the funeral procession to pass by.
They squeezed to the city gate again.
It is estimated that the people in the carriage he just rocked could not be seen, so Manager Qi could only wait for the people from Zhengyuan Hou Mansion to come back.
"Steward Qi!" A voice came to his ear. Steward Qi, who was a little tired and distracted, suddenly raised his head and saw Qingyue, and a smile immediately appeared on his anxious face.
"Miss Qingyue, where are the third girls?"
"Guanshi Qi is here with the servants." Qingyue said with a smile, walking towards the alley near the city gate, Guanshi Qi hurriedly followed.
After the carriage entered the city, it stopped in an alley on one side. Seeing the carriage, the stewards hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"Qi Guanshi, what happened?" Yu Xijiao's voice came from the carriage.
"Third Miss, the person... has been found." Manager Qi looked around and said vaguely. Even in the alley, Manager Qi did not dare to tell the truth.
"Let's go to Xiyi Zhai." Yu Xijiao was silent for a moment and then ordered. This is not a good place to talk.
Steward Qi obeyed the order, climbed into the carriage and sat down, and the carriage drove all the way to Xiyi Zhai.
When the carriage stopped, Qi Guan jumped out of the carriage in advance. Qingyue helped Yu Xijiao get out of the carriage, and then followed Qi Guan into the Yiyi Studio.
Several people went to the accounting room downstairs. By the time Yu Xijiao sat down, Steward Qi had already reported eagerly: "Girl, the coachman you asked your subordinates to find has been found."
"Where is he? Is everything okay?" Yu Xijiao asked eagerly. This is Uncle Feng, the loyal servant left by her father to her younger brother.
"He was seriously injured. He has been treated with medicine and is still alive. I have arranged for him to rent a place nearby." Manager Qi said.
"Did you tell me who saved him?" Yu Xijiao said in a deep voice.
"My subordinate only said that he is an old relative of the Marquis. Now the young prince is well and let him recover from his injuries." Qi Guanshi reported.
Yu Xijiao nodded. Her identity could not be explained clearly. It was best not to get involved. Manager Qi was an old relative of her father, so some things could still be explained.
"Did you ask who did the assassination?"
"They were said to be a few men in black. It was dark that day and I couldn't see who they were. There was one leader. He sounded like some kind of bandit at first. He said he was passing by and noticed that there were many guests in the inn and wanted to grab one.
They are all walking, but they all seem to be heading towards the young prince." Manager Qi said, he asked this very clearly before coming, and he also deliberately kept his mind in mind.
"What does it mean?" Yu Xijiao frowned.
"The leader asked repeatedly about the young prince. Although he explained that the young prince was a son of a noble family and looked rich, this should not be explained in the first place. However, the leading man said it twice and made it clear again and again.
The young prince is just a little fat sheep." Qi Guanshi said.
"Didn't you say anything else?" Yu Xijiao thought for a moment and realized that there shouldn't be only this. Uncle Feng should be hiding something.
"No, I only said this because my subordinate was once a Marquis of Zhengyuan, and I saved him and brought him the young prince." Manager Qi shook his head.
"Where is the specific address?" Yu Xijiao understood that this was all Manager Qi could find out. If he still wanted to know more details, his brother would have to go there by himself.
Manager Qi gave him a specific place. After thinking about it for a while, Yu Xijiao asked Manager Qi to prepare a set of large simple women's clothes. She also asked Manager Qi to go to Uncle Feng's place to keep an eye on her, and then left with Qingyue.
Once, the two of them didn't get on the carriage and walked around for a few streets before they got to the place.
After knocking on the door and seeing it was Yu Xijiao, Nanny Yuan who opened the back door hurriedly stepped forward to salute, showing great respect to the third girl from the Xuanping Hou Mansion who had saved her master.
Those who can still lend a helping hand to Madam at this time are all people who value love and justice.
This time Qingyue also followed her in, but did not enter the house. She stayed at the door of the backyard, waiting quietly for Yu Xijiao.
Yu Xijiao followed Nanny Yuan inside and asked Jingyue to give Nanny Yuan the clothes she was carrying and bring them in with her.
An Qinghe came out when he heard the commotion and saw that it was Yu Xijiao who let out a sigh of relief. As long as he had not left the capital, his heart was still worried.
"Miss Yu."
"Uncle, did you take Mrs. An to the street today?" Yu Xijiao asked after saluting.
An Qinghe sighed, rubbed his eyebrows, and said with a wry smile: "Sister, I must go. I kept crying when I came back. I just fell asleep when I was tired from crying."
Yu Xijiao felt sad, but she still smiled: "I'll go and persuade Mrs. An later."
Her mother was about to leave, and she didn't know when she would see her again. Even though she had thousands of words in her heart, she couldn't say anything more. She could only take advantage of her mother's presence to see and talk to her more.
"Thank you, Miss Yu." An Qinghe bowed gratefully to her. The eldest sister had been crying, and he had just managed to persuade her a little better. He was afraid that the eldest sister would wake up later and cry again when he thought of his niece.
Self-made.
"Uncle, is the prince feeling better?" Yu Xijiao asked again.
"Xuan'er has gotten much better, and her body is no longer so uncomfortable. However, the old illness is still there, and she still needs to take good care of herself. The climate in the south of the Yangtze River was originally moderate, but now when I go back to the south of the Yangtze River, I am afraid that the Marquis of Zhengyuan will chase me." An Qing
Hedao, after using the good medicine that Yu Xijiao sent later, it had such a good effect on Yu Chengxuan's body, which was beyond his expectation.
But Yu Chengxuan's body has other old diseases, but they cannot be cured by this medicine.
"After living in Jiangnan for so many years, I just took advantage of the climate to recover a little bit. There are many famous doctors in Jiangnan, but the final effect is just like this. It is better to go to other places to look. Maybe there are famous doctors who can be found." Yu
Xijiao sighed softly. Her father and mother had been worried about her brother's health, but the final result was nothing more than this.
An Qinghe's heart moved: "Whose suggestion was it to go to Jiangnan to look for famous doctors?"
"Zhengyuan Hou Mansion...means second room." Yu Xijiao said.
"The second room in the Zhengyuanhou Mansion?" An Qinghe snorted coldly, "I just saw what happened on the street. I'm afraid the second room in the Zhengyuanhou Mansion is not a good one. What does Lan Xuan mean by letting Yu Lanyan marry Xin Kangbo?
The prince is just using Lan Xuan's name, how can such a person really treat Xuan'er well?"
"So, Jiangnan won't actually be able to find a suitable famous doctor?" Yu Xijiao understood immediately.
"Since the plot is all about my brother-in-law, how can I let Xuan'er get better?" An Qinghe now sees clearly, "The many famous doctors in Jiangnan may have been just a lie to get Xuan'er away.
If something happens along the way from the capital to Jiangnan, Xuan'er's life will not be saved."
These words reminded Yu Xijiao that when she went to Jiangnan, her younger brother almost had an accident. Later, her father sent people there and secretly changed the route, so that her younger brother arrived in Jiangnan safely.
After arriving in Jiangnan, the people sent by his father said that the famous doctor in the rumors was not very good. After his brother arrived in Jiangnan, he visited another famous doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
At that time, I thought it was just a misinformation, but now it seems that the second brother's plot against his family has already started early. A glimmer of ice and coldness flashed in his eyes, and the second brother's ambition has actually become so vicious early on.
He took a strong breath, swallowed the coldness in his heart, and looked up again, his eyes calmed down: "Uncle, let's not discuss this matter for now. The person who wants to kill the prince this time is probably the second wife. Now the carriage driver Feng
Uncle has been found, would you like to meet him?"
"Have you found Old Feng?" An Qinghe also knew Uncle Feng and was overjoyed when he heard it.
"Yes, the person has been found. My uncle can go see him first, but don't bring him over. Let him recover there first. If there are many people coming and going here, it will arouse others' suspicion. Moreover, Uncle Feng is still injured.
It’s also not convenient for the doctor to come and go here from time to time.”
Yu Xi said delicately.
Several people in the yard were not allowed to see each other. Even if Uncle Feng was loyal and was injured while protecting his younger brother, she was not willing to just believe him. Her younger brother was so miserable in the dream that she had been so miserable several times.
Even in the middle of the night, I couldn’t find peace in my dreams. Was Uncle Feng dead at that time? Why wasn’t Uncle Feng there?
It's good for her uncle to go see Uncle Feng. After her uncle goes there, she can let Shiba keep an eye on him. If anything goes wrong, she won't be merciful.
"Okay, I'll go take a look first." An Qinghe understood what Yu Xijiao meant without Yu Xijiao's explanation and nodded.
"Uncle, someone before me contacted Uncle Feng, but what he said seems not to be complete. When uncle goes, please ask if there are any clues related to the second room of Zhengyuan Hou Mansion." Yu Xijiao warned again.
, no matter how you look at it, this matter was done by Yu Zhongyang and Ning, but Uncle Feng didn't explain it clearly, so she couldn't judge.
"Don't worry, Miss Yu, I know how to ask." An Qinghe is a smart person and responds quickly. He knows what he needs to do immediately without saying anything.
Saying that, he was about to leave.
Yu Xijiao said: "Is your uncle going out like this?"
"This is how I went out with my eldest sister just now." An Qinghe said, holding a hat in his hand. It was similar to the curtain hats used by women, but the style was suitable for men.
"Mrs. An was there just now, and the street was very chaotic at that time. Everyone was watching the excitement, so my uncle was dressed inconspicuously like this. But now, my uncle is going out alone to find Uncle Feng somewhere.
I'm afraid this will attract people's attention." Yu Jiaowan shook her head, her uncle was an imperial prisoner now, so he couldn't afford to be careless.
