The coachman panicked and reached out to pull the door, but he couldn't open it. The door had been deformed when it fell.
The coachman was even more anxious. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He called a few loudly, but there was still no answer. He was about to get up and ask a few people for help. He opened the door first to see if anyone inside was okay.
Suddenly I heard someone shouting from behind: "Escape, escape!"
The carriage driver was stunned for a moment and didn't react, but then he thought of something and turned around. What he saw was a figure squeezing through the crowd and running wildly. The carriage driver of the Zhennan Marquis Mansion had actually run away.
The carriage driver of Prince Duan's Mansion turned around and was about to chase her, but was stopped by a passerby: "You can't catch up now. Let's see how your concubine is doing. The master opposite is still here."
It means that if a monk can escape, he cannot escape from the temple.
The government officials came quite quickly. Two teams of patrolling government officials came over. On one side, they sent someone to ask the girl on the carriage of Zhennan Hou Mansion to get off. On the other hand, they helped the carriage driver of Duan Wang Mansion to open the door...
There's chaos on the street!
Yu Xijiao also took this road, but when she came over, the road was already clear. When the carriage passed by slowly, she saw through the window screen people on the roadside in twos and threes, pointing at one place and gesticulating vaguely.
I heard the words "Prince Duan's Mansion", "Concubine Xu" and "Girl from Zhennan Hou Mansion".
Yu Xijiao stopped the carriage in an alley on one side and Mingyue went down to find out the news.
Mingyue came back quickly, and there were many people talking outside. The fence on the side was still crooked, and there was no time to repair it, so passers-by were frightened.
"Girl, the carriage of Zhennan Houfu collided with the carriage of Prince Duanfu. I heard that the person in the carriage of Zhennanhoufu was the girl from Zhennanhoufu, and the person in the carriage of Prince Duanfu was their concubine. Zhennanhoufu
The girl was not seriously injured, but something happened to the concubine of Prince Duan's Mansion, and she was just carried away. It was said that the carriage driver of Zhennan Marquis Mansion ran away because of unknown personnel."
Mingyue neatly reported all the information she had learned, especially the key points.
"I heard that the carriage of the Zhennan Marquis Mansion was startled first and bumped into the carriage of Prince Duan Mansion. The carriage of Prince Duan Mansion almost overturned into the river."
There is currently only one girl in Zhennan Hou Mansion, Zhang Wanying, and it is Zhang Wanying that Yu Xijiao wants to see today.
Can't go to the banquet?
"Girl, how could such a coincidence happen? Miss Zhang met Concubine Xu, and the two of them bumped into each other like this. The carriage driver of Zhennan Hou Mansion heard that he was afraid of taking responsibility, so he squeezed out of the crowd and ran away.
You can tell by looking at it that it’s impossible to come back. Girl, do we still want to go to the tea shop?”
"Go over first!" Yu Xijiao said.
Mingyue nodded and called the carriage driver to come over.
When the coachman passed this section of the ground, he was extremely careful, fearing that he might be a little negligent, as something big had happened here just now.
When they arrived at the place, Yu Xijiao put on her curtain and got out of the carriage, and took Mingyue to the reserved private room. When she opened the door, she saw that Xu Jiayi was already there.
She was lying in front of the window, looking down at the excitement. When she saw Yu Xijiao coming, she quickly turned around and said, "Miss Yu San, I just saw you upstairs. Although I didn't see your face, I thought it was you who came.
.”
After he finished speaking, he looked back and said to himself: "Didn't I say that Miss Zhang is coming too? Where is the person?"
She has a good feeling for Zhang Wanyin, at least she is not as picky as the daughter of a wealthy family in the capital. Apart from being arrogant at the beginning, she later talks well and sounds reasonable, so she
Hearing that Yu Xijiao wanted to invite them, Xu Jiayi came over immediately.
Yu Xijiao sat down and frowned slightly: "I may not be able to come. Something may have happened to Miss Zhang! I'll come over and tell Miss Xu that you can go back if anything happens."
She was considered the lucky one today, Xu Jiayi was invited on behalf of Zhang Wanying.
"Miss Zhang, something happened. What happened?" Xu Jiayi asked in surprise, then shook her head, "I'm fine! I'm not in a hurry to leave."
"When I came here just now, I heard that the carriage of Zhennan Marquis Mansion collided with the carriage of Prince Duan Mansion. I wonder if it was Miss Zhang who was in the carriage." Yu Xi said softly.
Xu Jiayi's eyes suddenly widened, she took a breath of cold air, and then said after realizing: "I... seemed to have heard that something happened to the carriage of Zhennan Hou Mansion."
Xu Jiayi was usually not invited, but this time Yu Xijiao invited her, and her mother agreed. She was so excited that she couldn't sleep in the morning, so she came early. She lay on the window above and looked down, eagerly waiting for someone to come.
Vaguely, I seemed to feel that someone below had indeed mentioned something about the Zhennan Marquis Mansion just now, as if something had happened to the girl in the Zhennan Marquis Mansion.
Xu Jiayi was focused on waiting for the others, and did not pay attention to the following words. She did not think that this matter had anything to do with her at all.
Now I thought about it.
"I don't know if it's Miss Zhang, I just feel like she is."
Yu Xijiao came here specifically for Xu Jiayi. This girl is sincere. Don't wait here until then. It's better for her to come and say it herself.
"Miss Yu San, how about we go to the Zhennan Hou Mansion?" Xu Jiayi said enthusiastically, "Let's go see if Miss Zhang is really okay!"
"Miss Xu, we don't know the details of this matter now, but we can't just come to the door casually." Yu Xijiao said, she didn't want Xu Jiayi to be involved.
In fact, this girl is not stupid, but she is too straightforward, and her temperament is not like that of those delicate and graceful daughters of aristocratic families. If she is really involved in such a thing, she will definitely suffer.
"Why can't you just come to your door? Let's go and have a look." Xu Jiayi blinked in confusion and said.
"Miss Xu, I don't know what you mean, but would you like to go back and ask your father-in-law?" Yu Xijiao said, blinking her long eyelashes.
Miss Xu doesn't understand the meaning of this, but I believe Mrs. Xu will understand that the matter has not yet been decided at that point. The relationship between several people is only general. At least we need to wait and see for a while. As for this matter, Yu Xi
Jiao always felt that it was too much of a coincidence.
"Miss Yu also wants to go back and ask your father-in-law?" Xu Jiayin didn't understand.
"Yes, I have to go back and ask Mrs. Zhou." Yu Xijiao nodded.
Although Xu Jiayin didn't understand why she had to ask the elders at home to see a friend, she was usually very obedient and knew that she would get into trouble sometimes. Seeing that Yu Xijiao also listened to her elders, she didn't resist so much and said
: "Okay, then I'll go back and ask my mother before I decide."
"Okay." Yu Xijiao nodded.
Watching Xu Jiayi leave from the window upstairs, she breathed a sigh of relief. She strongly regretted getting this girl Xu involved in this matter. It was obvious that this person was sincere. How could she be Zhang Wanying's opponent? If she did it again next time
If this happened, she would definitely have to push Xu Jiayi partly.
"Girl, let's go back too!" Mingyue looked out the window, and outside the window, Xu's carriage had already left.
"Let's go!" Yu Xijiao nodded and turned to leave.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door. The master and the servant looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Mingyue took two steps forward and opened the door.
There was a familiar maid outside the door, and the master in a curtain hat stood behind him. Seeing Yu Xijiao in the private room, the maid stepped back, and Zhang Wanyin's voice came over: "Miss Yu San, I... this is
Came early?"
"Princess Mingqing?" Yu Xijiao was stunned and looked at Zhang Wanyin who slowly walked in.
As soon as she entered the door, the maid closed the door and took off the curtain hat from Zhang Wanyin's head. Sure enough, she saw a gentle smile on Zhang Wanyin's face, "I heard from my cousin that Miss Yu is going to invite her here. It happens that I have something to do and I am out of the palace.
I'm so presumptuous, I hope Miss Yu can forgive me."
"I am lucky that Princess Mingqing can come here." Yu Xi smiled tenderly. Fortunately, Xu Jiayi was taken away by her. It would be even worse if she stayed.
One Zhang Wanying is not enough, now there is another Zhang Wanyin?
The two Zhang sisters are both scheming people.
After the two parties had seen each other, they sat down.
Zhang Wanyin looked around: "Is it true that no one is here? Didn't it mean that there is also a girl from the Xu family who is the niece of Concubine Shu?"
"I just heard that something happened and Miss Xu went back." Yu Xijiao explained.
"What happened?" Zhang Wanyin was very surprised.
"I heard that something happened to your sister, and the carriage of the palace hit the carriage of Prince Duan." Yu Xijiao's eyes fell on Zhang Wanyin's face, and her eyebrows frowned slightly, "When Princess Mingqing came over, there was no
Have you heard anyone talking about it?”
"The second sister's carriage crashed into Prince Duan's carriage? Who was in the carriage?" The smile on Zhang Wanyin's face slowly receded, and her eyes became anxious.
On her way here, she didn't pass through that section. Although the matter has spread now, there are not as many people as there were on that section of the road, and there is proof. Many people who came later came to watch the excitement.
"It seems to be Xu... concubine." Yu Xijiao said.
Zhang Wanyin stood up suddenly, the smile on her face had long since faded: "Concubine Xu?"
"That's what they said. I just heard this. Now people in the capital are spreading rumors about this matter. I don't know how your sister is doing now or if something big has happened." Yu Xijiao sighed, "Wait a minute.
I first went back to my house and asked Mrs. Zhou if I could go over and disturb your house at this time, and then find time to see your sister."
Seeing Zhang Wanyin like this, this matter should have nothing to do with her. Thinking about it, if something like this happens at this time, people will definitely doubt her. After all, her future identity will be Princess Duan, and she happened to overpower Xu Anjiao, but she happened to
Xu Anjiao entered Prince Duan's Mansion first.
But if it weren't for her, who could have such great ability and do it so seamlessly? As far as Yu Xijiao knew, there were not many people who could do this.
If it were just a fight between women in the inner court, it would be even less...
Yu Xijiao guessed that the most suspicious person was Mrs. Qian!
There was a deep look in her eyes. I originally thought that Mrs. Qian could sit still very well during this period, and she wouldn't be able to do anything when she fell like that. Now Yu Yuxi didn't dare to go to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion to stir things up, but she didn't expect that she couldn't sit down now.
Well, this matter will be of great benefit to myself and the Xuanping Hou Mansion...
"Miss Yu San, I'm going to take a look. I won't sit with you anymore. We'll make an appointment later." Zhang Wanyin said eagerly. Suddenly something like this happened, and it might involve her. How could she sit down now?
I hate that my cousin, who looks smart, is actually stupid, so why would she bump into Xu Anjiao?
