After Huang Zicheng finished speaking, he felt a little regretful. His words seemed a bit presumptuous.
How could the prince, who has always been so meticulous, be so teasing.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu didn't seem to notice this at all, and simply turned around and walked out, "That's all, there's nothing to do at the moment, just stay here and keep an eye on it! There are still some things to deal with in the house, I'll go back first
Already."
What could happen in the house?
Isn't it the palace where the prince lives?
Huang Zicheng curled his lips and quickly straightened his expression, "Don't worry, Your Majesty."
After Xiao Yu left, the expression on his face completely calmed down, his eyes fell on the roster, and then he hurried to his office and hurriedly summoned a group of people under his command.
The Gao family can no longer be saved, and now they are still empty-handed, but they are still maintaining their basic dignity.
After all, the Gao family is Concubine Gao's mother's family. If the prince directly seizes the Gao family, I am afraid that the people in his hands will also have a big reaction.
So the flower stand is still there today.
But as a married daughter of the Gao family, Gao Ying was in no mood to consider these things.
She couldn't remember exactly how many times she went to her parents' house, but seeing her father looking so haggard due to alcoholism, she couldn't say what she said about Chen Liu.
In just a few months, half of the hair on my mother's head has turned white. She is obviously only in her forties.
Seeing her running around and looking haggard, her mother just kept crying and said, "Yingying, your family can't help you now, your father is already in trouble.
If we can't wait for the crown prince to ascend the throne, it will be the end of our family. You are a married woman. No matter what, it won't affect you, and my uncle's matter is not a big deal.
It only takes a few years of hardship, and then you can live with him forever! Mom knows that you have been suffering a lot since you married him, but Yingying, listen to mom, no matter what happens, nothing is more important than living!"
The mother who always had her eyes above her head would actually say such words. How could Gao Ying dare to say a word about the pain in her heart.
In the end, he could only return home sadly.
However, the Chen Mansion was also deserted. Most of the servants had been dismissed. Chen Liu was convicted and the Gao family was in decline. She knew very well that she should not be high-profile at this time, so she dismissed all those people.
Now that I'm back at home, I feel that everything is cold, even though it's summer.
Seeing her look, the maid knew that there was no result today, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but she still cheered up and smiled, "This slave asked someone to stew grandma's favorite dessert this afternoon. Grandma can use some of it."
!”
Gao Ying waved her hand, feeling surprisingly tired, "I came back late today, so I don't need it. I might as well pack it up together and send it to the uncle."
When the maid heard this, she glanced at the sky. It was already dusk, and lights were already being lit in the yard. She couldn't help but whisper: "It's getting late today, does grandma still want to go to Dali Temple? There's no need to humiliate them again."
"
"Your master is still suffering there! I can make them relax more if I go more often and give them more money."
Since my uncle was imprisoned, their grandmothers have been going to Dali Temple every day to deliver food and money. The money they received from those people was not reduced at all. As for whether the food has reached the uncle's hands, no one knows.
have no idea.
Of course, no one dared to say this to Gao Ying.
Seeing their grandma like this, they knew that there was only one thing supporting her now. If one thing went wrong, something might happen.
Therefore, the maid did not dare to delay and immediately went to pack the food box in a hurry.
By the time we went out, it was completely dark and the lights on the street were all on.
Chen Liu's official position is there, and the travel of the female family members in the mansion is related to the status of the men in the family. The carriage she rides now is completely different from the one she used to ride in the Gao family, it is just a Qingwei carriage.
While passing by Zhengyang Street, I suddenly heard several familiar voices.
She quietly lifted the car curtain and saw several women in gorgeous clothes sitting next to the beauty in the restaurant opposite. Looking at their figures, she knew they had played together before.
It's just that at this time, they are still the same as before, carefree and well-fed.
And myself...
Her hands holding the food box tightened and she pursed her lips to prevent herself from making any sound.
Arriving at the corner of Dali Temple Yamen, Gao Ying got off the carriage and walked step by step to the back corner gate.
Before I even got there, I saw a person walking hurriedly from behind.
When passing by her, he suddenly stopped.
"Tall girl?"
The voice seemed familiar. Gao Ying stopped and turned around to realize that it was the fourth prince.
When the fourth prince saw her looking over, he suddenly remembered, "I should call her Mrs. Chen now. Look at me, I forgot about it."
Gao Ying has always been a familiar guest in the palace. When he was a child, he often went to the palace to play with the princes and princesses. Although the fourth prince was not favored, he met him several times in the palace, and they barely had some friendship with her.
Seeing him, Gao Ying couldn't help but think of the past, and her eyes inevitably looked a little lonely.
So it took him a while to realize that he should salute him, "Fourth Prince."
"No need to be so polite, you are here..."
His eyes fell on the food box in Gao Ying's hand, and the smile on his face faded little by little, "Are you here for Mr. Chen?"
Gao Ying pursed her lips and did not answer, which was regarded as acquiescence.
"I didn't know until something happened to Mr. Chen. To tell you the truth, I came here for this too."
These words lit up Gao Ying's eyes, and she looked at the person in front of her in disbelief, "What did the prince say?"
"My father has never given me any serious tasks, so I have been there since I was studying in the Imperial College. Lord Chen and I can be considered colleagues." The fourth prince's voice was serious, but his expression was a little tinged with emotion.
The scholar said, "Some time ago, the prince sent me to Tongzhou, so I didn't know what happened here.
I just heard about it when I came back today. Don’t worry, I’ve sorted out his case, and the accusations against him are not sufficient. I already have preliminary assumptions, and I came here today to find out.”
When Gao Ying heard his words, her breathing became rapid. For such a long time, she had been treated coldly and looked at with blank eyes, but she didn't see any hope at all.
Now when I heard the fourth prince's words, I felt what hope was.
She lost control and grabbed the fourth prince's arm, "My lord, are you telling the truth? You...can you really bring my husband back?"
The fourth prince frowned slightly, looking at her with a hint of sympathy in his eyes, "I dare not give you a 10% guarantee, but... it shouldn't be a big problem."
His eyes fell on the food box in Gao Ying's hand again, and he simply stretched out his hand to take it, "The people guarding these doors are all snobs. If you can't pass this thing in, leave it to me.
Go to Mr. Chen.
It's getting late now, and the night is cool, so you'd better go back first! Have a good rest at home for two days. It won't take long before I have news for you."
If it were anyone else, Gao Ying might not believe it.
But this person was the fourth prince. Although she was not very familiar with him, she knew him somewhat. He never told lies.
If he said it can be fished out, then there is a high probability that it can be fished out.
After getting the news, Gao Ying was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night. She wanted to ask someone to inquire, but she was afraid of ruining the fourth prince's plan, so she could only stay at home with her heart pounding.
On the third day, I finally heard someone from the family coming and going, saying that the uncle was back.
When she rushed out of the second door in a panic, she saw a thin figure appearing at the door.
