Chapter 64: A Good Show
After sending Jiang Xiyue back to Yi'anbo Mansion, Shen Fengxu and Shen Baitang returned to Dongningbo Mansion together.
As soon as Fang stepped into the weeping flower door, there was a babbling drama and singing from not far away, faintly, it seemed to be there or not, needless to say, the two of them knew that Aunt Zhao must be listening to the play again.
Shen Baitang shook his head slightly and said, "The eldest lady really depends on her for everything." β
Shen Fengxu felt a little strange and asked, "Isn't my aunt raising a baby with peace of mind recently?"
Since the last time Aunt Zhao slandered the eldest lady, Shen Yanning has rarely stepped into Aunt Zhao's courtyard, even if Aunt Zhao invites someone, Shen Yanning will only explain one sentence, let Aunt Zhao raise the baby with peace of mind, Aunt Zhao has relatives in her heart, so she naturally keeps to herself.
But what's going on today?
With doubts, he went back to the snowmelt courtyard.
After arriving at the Snowmelt Courtyard, Dansha walked over quickly.
"Girl, it's a pity you're not here today. Dansha greeted him with a smile on his face and said, "There is a good show today." β
"What's the show?" asked Shen Fengxu.
"Today, Aunt Zhao went to the eldest lady to say goodbye, relying on her own pregnant child, neither saluting nor serving tea, and also contradicting the eldest lady everywhere, which made the eldest lady very unhappy, and later, when the eldest lady was about to establish rules, the old man happened to come, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw that the eldest lady was going to punish Aunt Zhao, and the old man punished the eldest lady, and let the aunt be exempted from the greeting to the eldest lady in the future. In just a few words, Dansha summed up today's events.
After hearing this, Shen Fengxu also understood, so she smiled: "It's interesting, no wonder Aunt Zhao is so proud now." β
Shen Baitang sneered: "I think that Aunt Zhao's good days are coming to an end." β
In the final analysis, Aunt Zhao is just a concubine, Shen Yanning spoils her only because she is beautiful and has a child, but once the child is born, the child is no longer hers, but the concubine under the knee of the eldest lady.
Today's events are not difficult to guess, presumably Aunt Zhao invited Shen Yanning first, and deliberately annoyed the eldest lady in the courtyard of the eldest lady, just to let Shen Yanning see the eldest lady punish her with her own eyes.
"Well, it doesn't have much to do with us. Shen Fengxu sat on the stool, holding the tea that Dansha had just served, and said, "Just watch them compete with each other." β
As for the fisherman......
But she's not the only one.
Aunt Yun in the side courtyard is afraid that she is also planning something, but Shen Fengxu doesn't know what those insects are used for the time being, but it's not a good thing after all.
"In order to take care of Aunt Zhao's baby, the eldest lady invited a drama and a cook, and specially invited a doctor, but Aunt Zhao didn't appreciate it at all. Shen Baitang smiled coldly, "It's really a waste of thought." β
"It doesn't matter if you appreciate it or not. Shen Fengxu said, suddenly remembered something, and said thoughtfully, "Is the drama of the Lifang class still in the house now?"
Dansha nodded and said, "Since the stage was set up, the people in Lifang's class have never left the house, and they have all been placed in the north courtyard by the eldest lady. β
"I see. β
Regarding the matter between the eldest lady and Aunt Zhao, Shen Fengxu had no time to care, just watch it as a good show, so she turned her head to look at Shen Baitang and said softly: "It's so late, the second sister should go back and rest early." β
It's really not early, and there will be morning classes in the academy tomorrow.
"Okay, you remember to rest early, too. Shen Baitang got up and went back to Qingxue Courtyard.
Shen Fengxu is now investigating the case, the stakes are very high, and there are some dangers, she doesn't want to involve Shen Baitang as well.
Seeing Shen Baitang leave, Shen Fengxu spoke: "You go and call Qingya and Huaqing." β
Not long ago, Shen Fengxu had already instructed the steward to let Qingya and Huaqing enter Shen Fengxu's courtyard, but until today, the two of them are doing some chores in the yard, and in Shen Fengxu's bedroom, only Dansha and Chensha can come in.
Soon, Qingya and Hua Qing came.
"I tell you one thing, there is a rouge shop at the junction of Yuque Avenue and Wutong Alley, the daughter of the shop owner is dead, you go and keep an eye on the shop, see if there is anything abnormal, if the owner of the shop is dead, remember to come back and report it." Shen Fengxu said, groaned slightly, and said, "Also, there is a little boy Ji Feng in the family of the Ministry of Rites, if there is any news related to him, remember to report it together." β
In the past, these things were done by Dansha, but if Dansha was asked to keep an eye on the shop, there would be no one around Shen Fengxu, although Qingya and Huaqing could not fully trust, but at least they had done a good job before, so Shen Fengxu was willing to believe them once.
After all, there is a shortage of people around her.
Qingya and Hua Qing responded together: "The maid understands. β
"Alright, you go down first. β
According to previous experience, if the murderer commits a crime, he will not even let go of the family of the deceased, and if the owner of the shop is also dead, the murderer should be able to be found under the vine.
"Girl, the previous Chef Ye was probably also taken a fancy to by the son of the family, could it be the little son of the Ji family?" asked Chensha softly.
"I don't know...... And the girl in the rouge shop doesn't know who her fiancΓ© is, maybe it will have something to do with it, maybe it won't have anything to do with it......"
For a while, Shen Fengxu felt that the case was too complicated.
Chensha gently comforted: "Don't worry, girl, isn't there also the prince of King Ning who is also investigating the case together?"
Speaking of this, Shen Fengxu remembered: "Also, if there is news, he will send someone to come, according to what I said before, you can find a thin man with a veil at that time." β
Hearing this, Dansha couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't this the person I saw that day?"
"This person is the personal guard of King Ning Shizi, and the person we saw that day was Ning Wang Shizi. Shen Fengxu explained.
Dansha nodded: "I see, it seems that this prince of Ning Wang is really not a good person, even if he goes to visit the flower building by himself, the guards around him also go to the flower building, it is really close to Zhu and red and black to ink." β
Shen Fengxu smiled dumbly.
At the same time, Ming Shu, who was far away in King Ning's mansion, sneezed violently.
The guard raised his eyes and looked at Ming Shu without controversy: "What's wrong?"
"I always feel like someone is saying bad things about me behind my back. Somehow, Ming inadvertently remembered Shen Fengxu, and then his back was cold again.
Wu Zheng was expressionless: "It doesn't matter if you say bad things or not, the important thing is that if you don't finish writing your copybook, the prince will definitely pick up the board and rush in, at that time, I and Zhifeng can't stop it, you can ask for more blessings." β
Mingshu: "......"
