The carriage from An and the eldest princess's residence came back together with the servants from Xie's residence.
Yu Xijiao was ready, bid farewell to Leshi, and boarded the carriage of the eldest princess's house under Leshi's reluctant eyes.
Also accompanying him was Caiyue who was tied up.
Gagged and tied up, he staggered behind the carriage and swaggered through the city with the carriage.
The marriage ceremony at Zhengyuanhou's Mansion turned into a funeral. The daughter of Zhengyuanhou, Lanxuan County Lord, died in the fire. The whole capital was shocked. The flames burst out and were seen in many places. It was said that it was accidentally caused by a servant.
There was a fire. Because she had to prepare for her daughter's marriage, Mrs. Zhengyuanhou also slept in her daughter's place that night. Mother and daughter slept very late and had not gotten up when the fire broke out.
So they were buried in the sea of fire together.
Comparatively, not many people knew about Yu Xijiao, but after being tied up all the way, and with Aunt Xu’s explanations from time to time, many people knew about another shocking thing, the three people in the Xuanping Hou Mansion.
The girl was assassinated by a maid, and the incident actually happened in the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion.
This incident is as unbelievable as the fire at Zhengyuan Hou Mansion.
Originally it was just a topic about the fire at Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, but new events were suddenly injected into it, making the direction of the topic inexplicably weird...
The carriage stopped at the Grand Princess Mansion.
Yu Xijiao helped Qingyue get out of the carriage.
"I have seen the third girl." There was already a thin woman about thirty years old waiting. Yu Xijiao recognized her as Aunt Qin from her grandmother's side. She had gone to Jiangnan to give her gifts before.
"Aunt Qin is so polite, where is grandma?" Yu Xi said softly.
"Third Miss and the slaves are here. The eldest princess has been looking forward to it for a long time." Aunt Qin said with a smile, "If you don't come here, the eldest princess will go to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion."
"Mother said that according to the etiquette in the capital, when you come back from a distant place, you have to bathe and change clothes for a few days before meeting your elders." Yu Xijiao said with a face of shame.
How did she believe this reason at first, but now that she thinks about it, she really just deceived an inexperienced girl.
"Madam is always polite." Aunt Qin said lukewarmly.
It's not surprising that there are many people in Li. Even if grandma knows that Qian's handiwork is involved, she can't say that Qian is wrong. Yu Xijiao sighed softly and said nothing.
Like Aunt Qin, all meanings remain unspeakable.
At the door of the flower hall, Princess An and the eldest princess couldn't wait any longer. They anxiously took a few maids and the old lady came out. When they saw Yu Xijiao coming in with Aunt Qin, they stood still.
"Grandma!" Looking at the kind-hearted eldest princess in front of her, Yu Xijiao's nose felt sore and she choked up for a moment.
He took two steps forward, knelt down on the ground, and kowtowed three times to An and the eldest princess.
"Okay, it's okay. Grandma is here!" Princess An and the eldest daughter reached out to pick up Yu Xijiao and held her in their arms with distressed expressions on their faces.
"Grandma...granddaughter...is late." Facing her distressed grandmother, Yu Xijiao shed tears. From yesterday to today, there have been too many changes. She has been carrying everything by herself, even if she sees her today
As for my mother An, she is also very strong, but only now.
Tears fell uncontrollably, and she cried loudly in the arms of An and the eldest princess.
She is Yu Lanxuan, and she remembers everything about Yu Lanxuan, and she is also Yu Xijiao, and she also has all the memories of Yu Xijiao, and every bit of the letters she and her grandmother wrote.
She didn't understand why this happened in her past life, this life and past lives. She only knew that when she saw her grandmother at this time, she felt truly uncomfortable. It was like a child who had been wronged and went to cry in front of his or her elders. She could not explain the grievances and discomforts.
.
"Don't cry, don't be afraid. With grandma here, no one dares to bully you casually." An and the eldest princess tried their best to soften their voices, and patted the thin shoulders of their granddaughter in their arms soothingly. The eyes of the eldest princess, who had always been strong,
He couldn't help but blush.
In her grandmother's gentle embrace, Yu Xijiao couldn't help crying, and it took a long time before she stopped crying due to everyone's dissuasion.
"Let the imperial doctor take a look first." An and the eldest princess were heartbroken and angry, but what was more important was their granddaughter's injury. The imperial doctor had already been invited and was waiting for Yu Xijiao to pass.
After re-diagnosis and treatment, the imperial physician prescribed medicine to cure the disease.
"This wound was inflicted by the dog slave sent by Mr. Qian?" After the imperial doctor left, An and the eldest princess slapped the table and said. They originally thought it was just a small wound, but they didn't expect it to be so deep. The deep blood marks on their arms were shocking.
The elder princess's eyes turned red with anger. How could Mr. Qian be so brave?
"Grandma, this injury... was inflicted by me. But if I didn't do it at the time, my reputation would be ruined now. I'm afraid what grandma will hear now is my filthy reputation." Yu Xijiao smiled bitterly.
After a moment, he shook his head.
Grandma is a man of affairs. If the things she had done on her own before seemed reasonable to ordinary people, she would not be able to keep it a secret here. It would be better to just confess it herself and tell her the truth.
She believed grandma!
This feeling is very mysterious. Anyway, Yu Xijiao was so sure as soon as they met. Compared with Mrs. Yu in Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, Princess An and the eldest princess are truly kind and kind, but that one is smiling but not smiling.
, looking at the intimacy, in fact, I have never been sincere to Yu Lanxuan. After all, Mrs. Yu is her father's stepmother, and she is not her biological granddaughter.
"You...you did it yourself?" An and the eldest princess were stunned. Thinking of the wound that had just grown, they twitched in distress.
"Grandma, at that time... I had to do this." Yu Xijiao told An and the eldest princess exactly what happened.
From the way Qian took care of her after she returned to Beijing, to the fact that he took her to the banquet this time, saying it was to let her recognize her relatives, but in the end she almost ruined her reputation because of Caiyue.
When the matter was finished, An and the eldest princess were furious. What else they didn't understand was that it was clearly Qian who was harming Yu Xijiao.
"Come here, go and summon Qian and Marquis Xuanping." Princess An and the eldest princess said sternly.
If your daughter-in-law is not a good person, and your son is not a good person, you can just scold and punish him at the same time.
"Grandma, father and mother are here, I...what should I say?" Yu Xijiao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. In front of An and the eldest princess, she was just a weak granddaughter, and her originally stiff shoulders relaxed.
.
She also wanted someone to protect her. Unfortunately, in her last life, her father died young, her mother was too gentle, and her younger brother was too young. She had to stand up and shoulder everything. Now that her grandmother is here, she finally feels relieved.
She actually has someone she can rely on and someone to protect her.
"Of course it will be punished as an assassination." Princess An and the eldest princess understood what she was talking about and said coldly.
It doesn't matter what the truth is. This kind of matter related to honor should indeed be covered up with something more powerful. Assassination is very good. My granddaughter's honor is as big as the sky. With the assassination, other things are trivial.
On this point, An, the eldest princess and Yu Xijiao thought the same.
Anyway, that dog slave and Mr. Qian were not clean in the first place. This matter should be blamed on no one but them!
"Grandma, there's no need to invite father and mother, they should be here soon... I'm afraid that the incident at the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion will have something to do with us, and it will happen in their house." Yu Xijiao reminded.
.
"Just bring it up, what are you afraid of what they will do? Zhengyuanhou Mansion still has no clear name like before!" Princess An and the eldest princess snorted coldly. If this matter has nothing to do with Zhengyuanhou Mansion, she is
I won't believe it. This will also anger the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion.
"Grandma, this must be...not true! What if that maid named Caiyue refuses to admit her guilt and says something bad about my honor in public?" Yu Xijiao bit her lip gently, her expression getting darker and darker.
She was pale, and her long eyelashes fluttered, like tired butterflies falling feebly on her eyes, which made people feel her powerlessness inexplicably.
Since the assassination was blamed on Qian, she must be convinced, and the confession of Caiyue, the maid, was very important.
Princess An and the eldest daughter felt distressed: "A maid is nothing, just ask her to change her story."
"Grandma, is this...really okay?" Yu Xijiao's eyes lit up and she raised her head excitedly.
"I'm just a dog slave. If there's anything difficult to do, I'll let someone handle it." Seeing their granddaughter like this, An and the eldest princess softened their hearts and took over the matter immediately.
"Grandma, let me do this. It's my business in the first place, and I will eventually grow up." Yu Xi's delicate eyes were soft and firm.
Caiyue, this slave, is the key to the past and present lives. Since it falls into his hands, how can he let her slip through his hands in vain...
