In Yu Lanxuan's yard, Yu Lanyun opened the door and stepped aside. The sixth princess pushed the door open and went in. Yu Xijiao also stopped in front of the door.
"Miss Yu, please stay with me." The sixth princess stood inside the door and turned around and said with a smile.
Yu Xijiao waved to Yu Lanyun, and the two of them followed in one after the other.
The house had been cleaned, and it could be seen that it was very clean and dust-free. The sixth princess walked around the outer room, and then stopped in front of the door of the inner room: "Miss Yu, can I go in and have a look?"
"Princess, please." Yu Lanyun said hurriedly, took two steps forward to lift the bead curtain, and the sixth princess stepped in.
Yu Xijiao followed with calm eyes and walked in.
Everything in the inner room is the same as in the outer room, just as it was when Yu Lanxuan was still there.
The sixth princess looked around and finally sat down in front of the dressing table. Yu Xijiao sat on a chair nearby and pointed to the chair next to her, indicating that Yu Lanyun should also sit down.
Yu Lanyun sat down uneasily, looking a little nervous.
There were only three of them in the house, and all the servants were guarding outside the door. Yu Lanyun heard the movement at the dressing table and raised her head cautiously. When she saw the sixth princess looking at Yu Lanxuan's dressing table casually, she panicked inexplicably and hurriedly lowered her head.
head.
Yu Xijiao was also watching the Sixth Princess unruly looking at her dressing table in her previous life. This was different from the way the Sixth Princess had behaved before.
It shouldn't be something done by the Sixth Princess, it's very disgraceful, but the Sixth Princess looked through it very naturally, as if she was looking at her own dressing table.
The sixth princess actually looked through the top drawer. There was nothing good anymore. The jewelry boxes were almost empty. Some of them were stolen by Ning and her daughter, and some of them were secretly taken by Yu Lanxuan herself.
It’s gone. Looking back now, it’s basically gone.
Even the few pieces that are occasionally missed are not very valuable.
"Ning's mother and daughter are so cruel, they didn't even leave three points for Yu Lanxuan." said the Sixth Princess.
Yu Lanyun breathed a sigh of relief: "This kind of small jewelry, when the third sister married into the Xin Kangbo Mansion, she basically brought it with her."
"Mother and daughter Ning are really like locusts crossing the border, leaving nothing behind." The sixth princess tugged at the corner of her lips, suddenly picked up a book placed by the table, flipped through it, and two pieces of paper fell out of it.
.
Yu Xijiao recognized that this was a poem she had copied casually for calligraphy practice, and she didn't know how it got stuck in this book.
She also recognized the book. It was just a copy of the women's ring. When Mrs. Yu didn't like it, she asked her to copy the women's ring as punishment. This book has always been on her desk.
"Is this written by Yu Lanxuan?" the sixth princess asked Yu Lanyun after taking out these two pieces of paper and looking at them.
Yu Lanyun hurriedly stood up and argued, then nodded: "It was indeed written by the second sister."
"Yu Lanxuan's handwriting is good. Is it okay if I take it away and have a look?" the sixth princess asked gently.
Yu Lanyun nodded hurriedly: "Sixth Princess is polite, so of course it's okay."
The sixth princess folded the paper in her hand and put it into her sleeve. Then she looked around, suddenly stood up, and walked towards the couch by the window.
On the right front in front of the couch, there is a harp, a harp that has actually been broken.
Seeing this konghou, Yu Xijiao remembered the konghou she first got. At that time, she wanted to learn the konghou, so she asked someone to buy one from outside her house. She originally learned it first, and it didn't have to be particularly good, but she didn't expect it to be so good.
It was very good, with good sound quality and timbre. Even if she had chosen it herself, it might not have been so good.
Not only the sound quality, but also the appearance was beautiful, and it was inlaid with gems. Yu Lanxuan fell in love with it at first sight. Although it was expensive, Yu Lanxuan liked it and didn't care.
Because the price was high, the maid who also went to buy it did not dare to make the decision, so the clerk in the store delivered the goods first. After Yu Lanxuan fell in love with it, she paid the money, and the konghou was left with her.
Yu Lanxuan had two konghou in total. This one was the first one and was Yu Lanxuan’s favorite. After getting this konghou, Yu Lanxuan would play a song from time to time and she liked it very much. Later, her grandmother knew that she now liked konghou, so she specially found one.
The frame was sent over, which was the one included in the dowry.
Originally, both of them were for dowry, but one month before the accident, the harp was broken. An felt that it would be unlucky to marry with a broken harp, and even if it was repaired, it would not be fixed immediately.
Repair it. If you like it in the future, just repair it first and then take it with you. There is no need to record it directly in the dowry. Yu Lanxuan did everything she could at the time and listened to An's words.
First, cross out this konghou from the dowry.
"Several of them were broken, and they fell so hard? Why don't you repair them?" The sixth princess was still asking Yu Lanyun.
Yu Lanyun was at a loss. She actually didn't know about this matter, and she didn't even know that Yu Lanxuan still had Konghou here.
"I……"
"Miss Yu, I also like the konghou. It's a pity that the strings of such a fine konghou are broken. I know a good musical instrument master, why don't I help you find him to repair it?"
"This..." Yu Lanyun looked around blankly, and finally his eyes fell on Yu Xijiao. She really didn't know why the topic jumped here.
The sixth princess had given her a harsh feeling before, but now she suddenly felt like a spring breeze.
"Since the sixth princess has such a kind intention, the clan sister should be able to accept it, right?" Yu Xijiao glanced at the harp, smiled slightly, and said.
Is there something going on with this konghou that I don’t know about?
The sixth princess’s purpose today is to burn paper, konghou?
Two completely unrelated things, worshiping and burning paper were even placed in the front. As for the harem, it was not out of nowhere, but it was well prepared, but I don't know what is... special about these two things?
Yu Xijiao didn't know the sixth princess's intention, so she just took it one step at a time.
After hearing what Yu Xijiao said, Yu Lanyun certainly didn't want to refuse, and said repeatedly: "Then I'll trouble the Sixth Princess."
"It's nothing to say it's troublesome or not," the sixth princess said in a gentle manner.
Finally, after walking around the house and finding nothing special, he asked the palace maid to come in and take away the harp. Then he followed the side door and went to Xuanpinghou first.
Yu Lanyun sent the two of them to the side door. After the side door was closed, she leaned against the door with a pale face. After coming all the way, now that the Sixth Princess was gone, she felt like she was alive again.
So, why did the Sixth Princess come today?
"Sixth Princess, do you want to take a rest first?" Yu Xi, showing off her kindness as a landlord, stood in her house and asked the Sixth Princess with a smile.
"No need, my carriage should be ready by now. I'm afraid I'll be at my house a long time ago. I also have some small black spots on my dress, which is a bit inconvenient. Let's see Miss Yu later." The Sixth Princess
the way of kindness,
After saying that, she was already walking out. Seeing that she insisted on doing this, Yu Xijiao helplessly looked at her dusty dress. In fact, she could change her clothes here.
As expected, the Sixth Princess's carriage had been repaired. The shaft of the carriage got stuck for some reason. For a while, the wheels were inconvenient to rotate. It just needed a little repair. Not long after Yu Xijiao's carriage returned home, the Sixth Princess's carriage was also found.
After arriving at Xuanpinghou Mansion, we waited at the parking lot.
Yu Xijiao put the Sixth Princess on the carriage and watched the Sixth Princess' carriage leave before going back. Halfway through, the boy asked her to go to the study, saying that Yu Ruiwen was waiting.
Yu Xijiao changed her ways and went to the study first.
In the study room, Yu Ruiwen saw her daughter coming and hurriedly asked her to sit down without courtesy. He looked at her face first and saw that the younger daughter's face looked pretty good, then he asked: "Jiao'er, what are you doing here, Princess Six?"
"They said they wanted to pay homage to Lord Lanxuan, and they even burned the paper themselves." Yu Xijiao shook her head in confusion. She still hasn't discovered the true purpose of the Sixth Princess.
It is certain that there is a future.
She didn't know that she was related to the sixth princess in her previous life.
"Burn the paper yourself?" Yu Ruiwen was also shocked. It was really unusual for a princess to burn the paper herself. She subconsciously exclaimed, "Yu Lanxuan and the Sixth Princess used to have a close relationship?"
Yu Xijiao shook her head: "Father, I don't know."
Yu Ruiwen then remembered that his youngest daughter had just come to Beijing and could know something. However, this incident was so unexpected that Yu Ruiwen always felt a little uneasy.
Seeing that Yu Ruiwen was silent, Yu Xijiao suddenly remembered what Feng Yu had said before, and hurriedly gathered her thoughts and said: "Father, I heard that there may be big news in the Ministry of War recently. The eldest brother may be rewarded, and the eldest sister's marriage may also be affected.
In advance, Mr. Xu said that he would be sent to the border early."
"Will Xu Cheng be sent to the border early?" Yu Ruiwen was even more shocked by the subsequent news. He was stunned at first, and then nodded in agreement, "This is really possible. This marriage will either have to be brought forward or postponed."
"What does father mean?" Yu Xijiao raised her beautiful eyes and asked.
"You can't push it back later." Yu Ruiwen said. His thoughts were similar to Yu Xijiao's. The eldest daughter is not young anymore, so she can't push it back any longer. If she pushes it back, she will worry about her eldest daughter.
For so many years, Mrs. Qian has neglected her eldest daughter, and she must not do this again now.
"If we have to go ahead, what we prepared before...is it still in time?" Yu Xijiao frowned slightly.
Yu Ruiwen waved his hand: "Prepare everything you can prepare first. If you really can't prepare it, I will send it to your eldest sister another day."
If the dowry is not fully prepared, it should be owed first. Anyway, the marriage must not be postponed. This is what Yu Ruiwen means. Yu Xijiao feels that this coincides with her own ideas.
"It's a good idea for my father to think so. I just want to trouble my father to pay more attention to the Ministry of War. I'm afraid that time will be too hasty when the time comes," Yu Xijiao reminded Yu Ruiwen.
Yu Ruiwen nodded: "Father knows."
"Then about big brother..." Yu Xijiao hesitated and couldn't help but mention the words of Yu Xianyi who had just been ignored by Yu Ruiwen.
"There is nothing wrong with your eldest brother. He is not young anymore and may get married soon." Yu Ruiwen said with a long sigh.
Yu Xijiao's heart skipped a beat: "Brother... what kind of noble girl will he marry?"
Could Feng Yu's hint and the appearance of the Sixth Princess have something to do with the eldest brother's marriage? A vague suspicion came to mind...
