The news that Yuan Yuan, the seventh girl of the Yuan family, returned to her hometown for her grandmother to pay respects spread in the capital a few days later. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Some people praise the seven girls of the Yuan family for their filial piety, some people laugh at this is just a deliberate pretentiousness of the high-ranking ladies in order to gain a good reputation, and some people secretly speculate that the seven girls of the Yuan family have offended someone, and they have just arrived in the capital for half a year and left......

There are many theories.

Of course, these are just a few random words of ordinary people talking about the streets and alleys, and within a few days, new topics arose, and the news about the seven girls of the Yuan family disappeared.

But in the eyes of those who know a little bit of the inside story, the doubts that have always been in their hearts are gradually revealed.

The fourth prince was taken aback when he received Doudou's letter.

There was nothing terrible written in the letter, only a few simple words that she was going to leave Beijing for a while, and the money owed to him could only be repaid after she returned, hoping that His Royal Highness would not be surprised.

Don't be surprised? That sounds a bit frightening.

Yuan Er has always yelled at him, and such politeness makes the four princes puzzled.

Isn't it something that happened on the night of Gu Ge's old birthday banquet that he didn't know?

The fourth prince secretly sent people to inquire for several days but found nothing, so he could only write down all the things he knew and doubted in a letter and sent them to Liangzhou.

And the question that Queen Pei in Fengxiang Palace thinks about is much more complicated than that of the four princes.

I couldn't even sleep for days.

This **** had dinner with the second prince and sent all the palace people out, and then asked: "Heng'er, did you do anything on the day of Gu Ge's old birthday banquet?"

Yu Wenheng raised his eyebrows: "Nearly half a month has passed, how did the queen mother think of asking this?"

Queen Pei said: "You don't care, just say whether it's or isn't." ”

Yu Wenheng said: "I was going to do something, but unfortunately before I could do it, Lord Yuan saw the opportunity, and let the fourth child escape." ”

Empress Pei reprimanded: "You are confused! As long as the fourth child is the son-in-law of Yuan Zongzhi, what difference does it make if he marries the eldest daughter or the second daughter? You should be glad that your design did not succeed." ”

Yu Wenheng was extremely unconvinced, but he could only keep a smile on his face, and learned Xiujie's words that day with Queen Pei.

Empress Pei frowned slightly, and after a moment of silence, she said, "It's reasonable to say this, it's just ...... Heng'er, you must not be so reckless in doing things in the future, it is best to discuss with the queen mother before acting. ”

Yu Wenheng bowed slightly.

Seeing that his attitude was very obedient, Queen Pei's expression was not relaxed, and she said: "I remember that you said that the second girl of Yuan is only one day younger than Xinxin, and her birthday is the seventh day of the seventh month of July?"

Yu Wenheng raised his eyes to look at Empress Pei, and said with some confusion: "Is there anything wrong with this?"

Empress Pei grabbed his hand and asked, "I heard from this palace that Gu Chao has a different attitude towards the two daughters, is this true according to your observation?"

Yu Wenheng was a little nervous by Queen Pei's attitude.

In his mind, the queen mother has always been calm and powerful, and when have he seen her so eager, and it can even be said that she is a little helpless.

Isn't it a thief?

He quickly stabilized his heart and said, "Second Lady Yuan's temper is indeed a little ...... Her attitude towards Miss Yuan Er has always been lukewarm, as for her towards Miss Yuanda...... The son didn't think there was anything special, but he loved his two sons very much. ”

It is no wonder that Yu Wenheng has such an opinion, he and the fourth prince went to Qingzhou Mansion on an errand last year, and they did not have much contact with Gu Chao, and at that time Yuan Xiang had already returned to the capital.

After returning to Beijing, although he and Gu Chao met several times, they never had a chance to speak again.

What's more, in his opinion, Gu Chao and Yuan Xiang are not the objects of his attention, how can they be willing to spend time studying how their mother and daughter get along.

Queen Pei was a little disappointed, Heng'er was still not mature enough, and she didn't observe things carefully enough, and sometimes it was these inconspicuous little details that determined the success or failure of a thing.

She smiled faintly and said, "Gu Chao only got so many baby bumps when he was thirty years old, how could he not love them." ”

Yu Wenheng said: "Isn't it that my mother doubts the identity of the second girl of Yuan? How is this possible, even if it is an uncle, although her appearance is the same as that of their mother and daughter, the corner of her mouth is missing the little pear vortex." ”

Empress Pei said as if talking to herself: "That's true, in the eyes of the queen mother, Gu Chao's smile is sweeter than Gu Xi's, and the second girl is the same." ”

Yu Wenheng said again: "Anyway, Miss Yuan Er is always the granddaughter that the old lady of the Yuan family values the most, otherwise it would not be her who returned to Jiangnan on behalf of the old lady." ”

Empress Pei was noncommittal about this.

The matter of Yuan Er's return to Jiangnan cannot be said to be exile in disguise.

The mother and son chatted for another half an hour, and Yu Wenheng said goodbye and went back to rest without mentioning it.

Empress Pei walked into the inner room and asked Qi Su to summon Mama Zheng.

Mama Zheng was already old and had fallen asleep at the moment, and when she heard that the queen had summoned her, she hurriedly dressed and rushed over.

"Mama Zheng, where is Zheng Amao?" Empress Pei seemed to be a little impatient, and immediately asked when she saw Qi Su closing the door.

Mama Zheng chuckled in her heart, and her palms and back were soon soaked.

Zheng Amao is Mama Zheng's only nephew, and he was a gangster back then, relying on his aunt to be the nurse of Princess Jin, and he showed off his power in the capital.

But since he helped his mother do that thing that year, he seems to have changed as a person, and he took the money rewarded by Pei Tingyu to go south and north to do business, but he bought a large part of the family business.

It's just that he never wants to enter Beijing again, and although Mama Zheng's family has received many benefits from him, they have never met him.

Empress Pei seems to have forgotten him as a person, and has never mentioned Zheng Amao for more than ten years.

At this time, hearing the queen's mother suddenly ask him, Mama Zheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "Niangniang asked Ah Mao, he has been learning to do business, and now he has settled in Jiaxing Mansion, Zhejiang, and he also has a wife, concubines, and children." ”

Empress Pei rubbed the flawless mutton fat jade bracelet on her wrist and chuckled: "Then he can be regarded as a blessed person." ”

Mama Zheng has served Queen Pei for decades, how could she not hear the coldness in her words, and knelt on the ground with a puff and said: "That is also the Hongfu who entrusted the mother, and the old slave thanked the mother for Amao." ”

Empress Pei said: "What is Mama doing? I'm just asking casually." ”

Where did Mama Zheng dare to stand up, and said respectfully: "The old slave will personally write a letter to Ah Mao later, asking him to enter Beijing as soon as possible to ask Niangniang to say goodbye." ”

Queen Pei snorted slightly and said, "Mama get up, you won't be able to walk when you kneel when you're old." ”

Mama Zheng struggled to stand up, bowed to Queen Pei again and bowed before withdrawing.

Empress Pei pulled off the red gold hairpin on her head and dialed the wick, and her eyes revealed a cold air that was incompatible with the warmth of the dormitory.

Did Zheng Amao clean up that thing?

If things really went wrong back then, there must be something wrong with the identity of Miss Yuan'er, and then she must disappear from this world. (To be continued.) )
