Chapter 38: The Secret (2)

"You say, Yingqi is in the palace?" Hearing Fang Mingzhu's words, Old Lady Meng's expression became solemn. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"It stands to reason that although Yingqi is from Tanhua, according to his grade, he has not yet reached the point where he can enter and leave the palace. He is violating the law, will he be criticized? Mrs. Meng's words made Fang Mingzhu feel that her mother-in-law was definitely not an ordinary country woman.

She was a little nervous herself, but she still tried to comfort her: "Mother-in-law, don't worry, my father said it was for Yingqi's safety." It's going to be fine! ”

After saying that, Fang Xiangye personally asked her to come back to comfort her and said it again, and Mrs. Meng slowly eased her expression. However, it can be seen that the doubts between her eyebrows have not disappeared.

After Fang Mingzhu left, she leaned on the couch and sighed at Mother He: "Ziqing, why can't I escape?" ”

Mother He familiarly pressed lightly on Mrs. Meng's head, and said, "Old lady, don't worry, Young Master Yingqi will be fine!" No matter what he says, his father-in-law will not ignore him. Didn't Xiangye let the young grandmother come back to comfort you? ”

Mrs. Meng closed her eyes and said, "I hope!" If Yingqi really has anything wrong, I just don't want to fight for this old life, and I have to protect him well! ”

Mother He paused, and then said, "What are you talking nonsense?" Childe will be fine! When he was born, didn't someone say that he was blessed and close to nobles? ”

Old Madam Meng shook her head and said, "That's it, let's wait and see!" Fortune tellers naturally pick up good words! Brother Jiu'er doesn't know where he went today, you can go and see it later! ”

Mother He nodded yes and said: "In the past few days, the little lady is very well-behaved, and she writes and embroiders with Qingyu every day, which is strange and sensible!" ”

Hearing her mention An Niang, Mrs. Meng couldn't help but smile, "Qingyu is here, she has one more companion." That's fine, I originally planned to wait for the weather to get hot, and I wanted to invite her Xixi or teach her mother to come back. Now there are a lot of things at home, so let Qingyu accompany her first! ”

Mother He nodded and said, "Speaking of which, this Qingyu, the original upbringing is really good!" That Zhou adult can bother to raise his daughter like this, and his daughter is still so promising, I think he shouldn't be a bad person! It's a pity that he was convicted! ”

Old Madam Meng shook her head and said, "Ziqing, the affairs in the court are not as simple as good people and bad people. You don't understand it in detail, anyway, let's look at Qingyu well, so let's treat her well. Don't talk to her about her family! ”

Mother He hurriedly nodded: "Got it!" The slave and maid just said it in passing. I won't talk too much next time. ”

When Mrs. Meng saw that she really knew her mistake, she didn't dig deeper. With his eyes closed, he leaned on the couch and slowly breathed deeper.

Seeing that she was asleep, Mother He gently helped her put on a blanket and went out.

In Fang Mingzhu's room, Xiaohuan told her everything she had seen and heard that day. In the end, she couldn't help but ask: "Miss, that Chang mother, why is she so weird?" Lift your hairpin over and over again. Isn't that an old thing? Even if the weight is heavier and the condition is older, I don't think it's unusual! ”

Fang Mingzhu was moved when he heard this, and said, "No matter how much, you bring the hairpin to me first!" ”

Hearing her say this, Xiaohuan hurriedly rummaged through the cages, and finally found the golden hairpin in an inconspicuous corner.

Looking at Fang Mingzhu's smiling face, Xiaohuan was a little weak-hearted: "Miss, it's really not that I'm lazy." I saw that this hairpin was old and old, so I didn't take it to heart. Just leave it there. ”

Fang Mingzhu looked at this girl a little flustered and hard-mouthed, thinking about her loyalty to herself, she couldn't help but soften, and stretched out a finger on her head: "You!" Not an example! ”

Xiaohuan rubbed his forehead, pouted, and nodded: "Yes, I know." While watching curiously, Fang Mingzhu put the golden hairpin in his hand and looked at it repeatedly.

This is a crested hairpin, the workmanship is very fine, the phoenix on the hairpin head is carved lifelike, and even the feathers on the wings of the phoenix are carved very finely. In the mouth of the phoenix, there is an obvious gap, obviously, that phoenix, before the mouth should be holding something. According to the common design, it is about a bead or something. Now, though, the bead is apparently missing. The handle of this hairpin is also thicker than the average hairpin. If it weren't for the dark color of the gold, it would still be a rare treasure.

"You say, did the man say that this hairpin was given to me by my aunt? Since my aunt wanted to give it to me, why didn't my wife keep it for me, but the attendant next to my aunt brought it? Didn't I have a few things left by my aunt in my jewelry box before? Fang Mingzhu took the golden hairpin and subconsciously asked Xiaohuan.

She was told since she was a child that her mother, Aunt Ning, died in childbirth when she gave birth to her. Xiangye didn't like her very much because of this, and felt that it was because of her that his concubine died early.

The reason why she knew that her mother was pampered was also because she had a few treasures in her jewelry box that could not be easily seen. According to the nurse who brought her before, the tourmaline handicap, the pink agate stone, and a complete set of diamond necklaces are rare in the lady's place. This shows the scenery when her mother was there.

"If Aunt Ning hadn't left early, where would there be a goblin-like character like Aunt Qian in this mansion!" This sentence is also the most people she hears say. What kind of person is the biological mother, she can't delve into it. It's just that the origin and end of this hairpin must be figured out by myself. Otherwise, that Chang's mother would not have reminded Xiaohuan so solemnly.

It's just that she looked at the hairpin several times, but she couldn't find any clues in it.

Xiaohuan saw that she had no choice, and it was a little strange. Then he said: "Miss, I always think that Chang mother is so strange. She said that the person who asked her to guide you had gone, and explained that you had better put incense sticks on her on the fifth day of March every year. These words are really outlandish. By the way, miss, isn't the fifth day of the third month the day you return to the door? Is there something going on in the house that day? I walked around the house, and I didn't hear anyone say anything! ”

Fang Mingzhu shook his head and said, "Just because you didn't ask anything doesn't mean that there is nothing big in the house." Sometimes, the bigger the event, the more secretive. There should be something deep in Chang's mother's words, but we don't know it. ”

As she spoke, her fingers unconsciously twisting lightly on her hairpin, suddenly, something strange happened.
