Yu Lanyan's death, apart from everyone being a little surprised at the beginning, there was no sound after that.
The Marquis of Zhengyuan's Mansion sent people over, but they only offered a few sticks of incense. There was no doubt about Yu Lanyan's death, and no one wanted to see the body that was said to have been swollen by soaking.
Zhengyuan Hou Mansion had nothing to say, but Xin Kangbo Mansion just calmed down and found a thin-skinned coffin at random and did not bury it in the ancestral grave of Xin Kangbo Mansion. Mrs. Xin Kangbo did not allow an unfaithful daughter, and she was just one.
A person with no status enters the ancestral grave.
As for the meaning of the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, they said that Yu Lanyan was already a married daughter, and they did not allow her to enter the ancestral land of the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion.
There was no dispute between the two families, and they just randomly found a place to bury the person, thus settling the cause and effect.
The people in the capital were pointing fingers outside Xin Kangbo's mansion for a long time, taking Yu Lanyan's death as a matter of course, otherwise they would not be able to wash away the shame on her body and the shame on the two aristocratic families caused by her.
With Yu Lanyan's death, the public case involving Zhengyuan Hou Mansion and Xin Kangbo Mansion is over. Although the people are still speculating whether Prince Xin Kangbo is really innocent in this matter, the enthusiasm for Xin Kangbo Mansion has already increased.
It's not as good as before, no one is keeping an eye on Xin Kangbo Mansion anymore.
One morning, the back door of Xin Kangbo's mansion opened, and Hong Xi walked out with her head in the air. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no one was outside the door.
What the prince said was indeed correct. Now no one will be looking at Xin Kangbo Mansion anymore.
A carriage from the Xin Kang Bo Mansion had been parked outside the back door. Hong Xi got on the carriage and the carriage went all the way to the lively part of the street. When they reached a small alley, Hong Xi jumped off the carriage and walked forward skillfully.
, go around the alley and you will find the main street, directly opposite is Xiyi Zhai.
There were a lot of people in front of Xiyi Zhai, and carriages stopped from time to time, and wealthy people from aristocratic families got out of the carriages and entered.
After Hong Xi entered, she walked around and looked very familiar. She was dressed like a maid and looked more like the person following the daughter of some family.
A waiter saw her going to the private room upstairs in a familiar manner, so he didn't pay attention. There were many rich ladies from aristocratic families in the private room upstairs. The ladies of the aristocratic family were there, so they might have followed their master.
Hongxi went straight up to the second floor and checked the goods on the second floor. She stopped from time to time, as if she was looking for something to her liking. In fact, her eyes were wandering around. Naturally, she didn't really buy anything when she came to Xiyi Zhai.
, she was looking for someone, Yu Chengxuan, which was her main purpose when she was sent out to Zhengyuan Hou Mansion by the Ning family.
Although Xiyi Zhai is now owned by Yu Xijiao, it has always been owned by Yu Lanxuan before. I heard that the person in charge was still Yu Zhongyang's person. Compared with other shops, Xiyi Zhai is the largest in scale. Both Ning and Yu Zhongyang are
I think that if Yu Chengxuan really entered the city, he would most likely come here.
Hong Xi has been coming over to check on her from time to time in the past few days, that's why.
After being worried about Yu Lanyan's death for a day, the matter was quickly settled with the joint efforts of the two families. Hong Xi immediately came over to check for news about Yu Chengxuan.
Hong Xi now lives in panic every day, fearing that if she is not careful, she will lose her value, and what will happen if she loses her value. She can also see clearly that the person who died in the lake instead of Yu Lanyan was Yu Lanyan's once most personal friend.
The eldest maid is now dead without even a name.
The previous master was gone, and the master who had returned to him was gone. Hong Xi now only hoped to be favored by Chu Zihan, and hoped that Prince Xinkang could become her new master, and work hard to do something to make Prince Xinkang appreciate her.
She looked around and didn't find anyone out of the ordinary. Hongxi was very disappointed and looked in the corner again. She knew there was a private room there, which was not usually used. It seemed to be used to entertain distinguished guests. It had always been there.
It was closed, but today it was slightly open.
Is there anyone at this door?
And he’s still someone who doesn’t want people to see him?
Hong Xi excitedly put down the piece of clothing in her hand and looked over, focusing her attention there. She had a feeling that there might be something there.
The cashier downstairs came up. Hong Xi leaned to the side and saw that the cashier seemed to be holding something in his hand. He pushed open the private room door that was ajar and looked at it from Hongxi's angle.
It was clear that there was no one inside, which made Hongxi very disappointed, but she did not look away.
The accountant put down several pieces of paper in his hand, and he knew it was very important at a glance. He also pressed it down with a piece of paper. This was something Hongxi had never seen before.
The cashier came out of the room, closed the door ajar, and called a waiter. He seemed to give some instructions, and then the cashier swayed down the hall, and the waiter stood guard at the door.
Hong Xi picked up another piece of material at hand and looked at it randomly, but her eyes were always paying attention to the ajar door. The things on the table at the door were very important. She had a hunch that if she trusted Prince Kang Bo,
If you take it, the prince will definitely use him again. Whenever he thinks of Prince Xin Kangbo, Hongxi's face turns slightly red and her breathing becomes a little faster.
Yu Lanyan was gone and he entered Xin Kangbo Mansion. He said that a crisis can also be regarded as an opportunity. At least he was not the one abandoned. Then he had to seize the opportunity and never let go of any opportunity.
There were more and more customers upstairs. Someone saw that the waiter was empty and called loudly. The waiter looked around and saw no one else, so he had to go over and wait.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hong Xi quickly put down the materials in her hands and walked over. All the other doors in the row of private rooms here were closed, and no one was guarding the door. The door was left ajar.
Hong happily went in naturally, as if she was supposed to be here. People who saw it didn't take it seriously and continued to choose what they liked.
The door opened, Hong Xi took two quick steps, slipped in and closed the door again. After calming down her rapid breathing, she stepped forward to the table and saw clearly what was on the table. She was immediately overjoyed. She had seen this thing before.
It was the title deed of a shop. Hong Xi had seen many such title deeds when following Yu Lanxuan in the past.
After picking up the Yimu Sanxing and looking at it, she was even more surprised and almost overjoyed. She bit her mouth hard for fear of making any noise. She folded the land deed and put it in her arms. Hong Xi came out of the house very quickly, hiding it again.
After closing the door, she looked around and found no one noticed her, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
He turned to the stairs, came down from the stairs, walked out quickly, and hurried into the alley. Only when he got into the carriage did his heart settle down, and he said to the carriage driver: "Hurry back."
"Found it?" the carriage driver of Xinkangbo Mansion asked slowly, very dissatisfied with the fact that he has been sending a maid in and out for a while.
"I found it. Hurry up. We'll see how the Crown Prince punishes you if you're too late." Hong Xi scolded.
The carriage driver snorted disapprovingly, but he did not dare to really disobey the order, and reluctantly drove the carriage in a circle, and the carriage went all the way to Xinkang Bo Mansion.
Still stopping at the back door, Hong Xi jumped out of the carriage and hurried up to knock on the door. Seeing that it was Hong Xi, the woman guarding the back door glanced at her sideways and laughed disdainfully, letting her in, and then closed the door and locked it.
, for this maid who followed Yu Lanyan, even the servants in the house looked down upon her. With the master like that, how could the maid be any better?
A woman like Yu Lanyan, who married into the family and tainted the prince, and caused such a big scandal, made the entire Xinkangbo Mansion a joke, and the servants of the Xinkangbo Mansion were all complaining. Although Yu Lanyan is dead now
, her maid who came as a dowry didn't even leave, and the prince actually allowed her to come in and out of the back door at will. No matter how she looked at it, she didn't like it.
As Hong Xi passed by, all the servants she met on the way rolled their eyes at her, so she hurried to Chu Zihan's study without caring.
The boy stopped her at the door of the study.
"Is the Crown Prince in the study?" Hong Xi asked eagerly, with a happy face.
"Inside, I'll report it." The boy glanced at her, and it wasn't difficult for her. He turned around and went in to report it for her. He came out after a while.
"Your Majesty, let you in." The boy pointed at the door, which meant that he would not go in.
Hongxi nodded and hurriedly entered the study door.
In the study, Chu Zihan was sitting behind the desk. When he heard the noise, he looked up and looked at Hong Xi. During this period, his life was not easy. He originally thought he had a chance to win, but he didn't expect it to end up like this. All his plans seemed to go as planned.
Going in the opposite direction, Yu Lanyan now had to fake death to escape.
"I have met the Crown Prince." As soon as she saw Chu Zihan, Hong Xi's face turned slightly red and she turned sideways and bowed deeply to Chu Zihan.
"Why, found out?" Chu Zihan asked. This matter is actually a matter of the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion. He doesn't really want to get involved. He always feels that this matter is not simple. However, Hongxi is the maid of the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, so he also
It was inconvenient to stop him, so it was a convenience.
"I didn't find it, but I found this." Hong Xi shook her head, took out the folded paper from her arms, and handed it over.
"Put it on the table." Chu Zihan's gaze fell on Hong Xi's face. This gaze made Hong Xi's face blush even more. Her eyes couldn't help but become a bit moist, shy, and her eyes were shy.
Get timid.
Biting his lip, he took two steps forward and put the paper in his hand on the table. He couldn't help but move closer, and his voice trembled unconsciously: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please take a look."
Chu Zihan looked away impatiently and looked at the note. When he could see clearly what was on it, he was also stunned: "Where does this come from?"
"Just now when we were in Xiyi Zhai, the slave saw the account brought up and placed in an empty private room. This private room had always been closed in the past, but this time it was actually opened. Seeing the cautious appearance of the accountant, even if he left
I asked a man to guard it, so I knew it was something important. When I went in, I saw... a land deed, and it was a land deed without a name. This... this is really great."
Hong Xi was very excited. The land deed of the shop, and it was also a land deed without a name. It was equivalent to whose hands the land deed was, and who owned the shop. Why wasn't Hong Xi excited about such a big good thing?
"How come... there is no name?" Chu Zihan looked at the land deed in surprise, then found the deed of a shop below, and fell silent...
