Seeing off Zhao Suiliang, the housekeeper of the Chu Palace, Xiao Yiran felt that Ying Tianfu could no longer stay, so he immediately ordered Qingwen and Mu Yue to pack their luggage and prepare to go to Taicang early in the morning of the first or second day to hide. After dinner, Xiao Yiran has been thinking about the travel arrangement. After all, Taicang County is too close to Ying Tianfu, and it is impossible to hide there for the next few months.

Where do you go next?

Xiao Yiran didn't think about it for half the night, so he had to wait until he arrived in Taicang. I got up early in the morning, had breakfast, and just loaded my luggage into the carriage, and before Xiao Yiran could get in the car and leave, Cui Jian, the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion, hurried over.

"Miss, this is ......"

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Xiao Yiran about to board the carriage, obviously going out.

"Steward Hu has something?"

"Xiangye, please."

"It's really unfortunate, Hu Cui's housekeeper went back to the house to tell the prime minister, Yiran has something to go out, and then go to the prime minister's mansion to ask for guilt when he comes back."

"Don't hide it, Xiangye is waiting for Miss in the Prime Minister's Mansion, no matter what, please follow Miss to the Prime Minister's Mansion first."

Looking at Hu Xin's posture, Xiao Yiran knew that he could only go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to deal with it first, and then take the opportunity to leave. The two carriages came to the front of the Prime Minister's Mansion one after the other. When he left from Yiranju, Xiao Yiran did not unload his luggage, and he left Yingtianfu immediately after coming to meet Hu Weiyong. Therefore, the carriage did not rush into the Prime Minister's Mansion, but stopped at the side of the street in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, leaving Qingwen to guard the carriage, and taking Musk Yue with Hu Xin into the Prime Minister's Mansion. was taken to Hu Weiyong's study, Hu Xin said goodbye and left, leaving only Xiao Yiran and Musk Yue's master and servant.

At this time, Hu Weiyong was not in the study, and Xiao Yiran could only wait patiently. It's just that after waiting for more than an hour, he still didn't see Hu Weiyong's shadow, and Xiao Yiran couldn't help but get anxious. In the study, some people were restless and couldn't look around.

Look at Hu Weiyong around noon, I haven't even seen a family member, let alone Hu Xin, the housekeeper who brought them in. At this time, Xiao Yiran had already vaguely guessed something in his heart. Instructed Musk Yue:

"You go and tell Sù Qingwen, drive the carriage back to Yiranju, and don't come back. Let's just wait in the comfort of the house. ”

"Miss?"

Musk Yue was not worried that Xiao Yiran would stay here alone, and hesitated and didn't want to leave. Just as a maid walked in, she said to Xiao Yiran:

"Miss, please go to dinner with the slave maid."

"May I ask this sister, who asked you to come?"

"It's Steward Hu."

"Where is Steward Hu now?"

"I'm out of the house."

"Xiangye is here?"

"Xiangye went to the palace early in the morning and hasn't returned yet."

Xiao Yiran asked Musk Yue to hurry back to Yiranju, and he followed the maid of the Prime Minister's Mansion to a delicate room. I saw that the bed tents, tables and chairs were all available, and the round table in the center of the room was already set up for meals.

"Miss, the housekeeper instructed that Miss has been wronged to live here temporarily for the past two days. The slave maid is called Xiaomei, and if you have something, just tell the slave and maid. ”

After Xiaomei finished speaking, she walked to the door of the room and stood quietly under the eaves.

At this point, Xiao Yiran completely understood, and it is estimated that he was put under house arrest by Hu Weiyong. Just, why do that? Xiao Yiran couldn't imagine which one Hu Weiyong was singing. How did she know that Hu Weiyong had long planned to include himself in the Prime Minister's Mansion, not only because of his beauty, but also because of the accidental death of Hu Weiyong's youngest son, so that he was angry with his own affairs.

If you come, you will be safe, Xiao Yiran thought, since this is already the case, then let's stay first and see what Hu Weiyong wants. Since the successful condensation of the clone, especially after being hijacked by bandits on the road outside Baoding Mansion, Xiao Yiran has been very confident in his outstretched hand. If it is really a moment of crisis, it should not be a problem to break out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

After lunch, Xiaomei quickly cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, made tea for Xiao Yiran, and walked outside the door again to stand quietly, as if Xiao Yiran was calling a girl. Xiao Yiran didn't pay attention to it, drank tea, sat down at the table for a while, and then went to bed crookedly and planned to sleep for a while.

Xiaomei is obviously a girl with vision, and when she saw Xiao Yiran leaning on the bed, she closed the door lightly. Xiao Yiran kept paying attention to the movement outside, and when Xiaomei closed the door, she didn't hear her footsteps leaving. After about a quarter of an hour, I heard a series of footsteps coming from far and near. Xiao Yiran pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"Xiaomei, what's the situation?"

Although the voice was very low, Xiao Yiran could still hear that it was Hu Xin's voice.

"Back to Steward Hu, Miss is taking a lunch break after lunch."

"Didn't you say anything?"

"I just asked where Steward Hu and Xiangye were before eating, and there was nothing else."

"How did you answer?"

"It's all according to Steward Hu's orders."

"Didn't you make a fuss?"

"No, the young lady seems very calm and calm."

After that, the footsteps were heard fading away, and there was no other sound.

Hu Xin walked all the way to a secret room in the east courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Hu Weiyong and the other two were quietly discussing something, Hu Xin first stepped forward to greet Hu Weiyong, and then said hello to the two people seated.

"The villain has seen Lord Chen and Master Tu."

"Hu Xin, how's it going?"

"Back to Xiangye, listening to the girl Xiaomei, she didn't make any noise, but showed a calm and calm appearance."

"Oh?"

Hu Weiyong looked at Hu Xin, and then said:

"In that case, let's treat it well."

Seeing that Hu Xin turned around to leave, Hu Weiyong stopped him and asked:

"Who else knows about this?"

"Back to Xiangye, there are only two girls and the driver who is driving the car."

"Go ahead, remember to tell a few words, don't reveal it at will."

"Yes, Xiangye, the villain retires."

Hu Xin turned around and went out and closed the door tightly.

After Hu Xin left, Hu Weiyong looked at Chen Ning and Tu Jie, his two henchmen, pursed the corners of his lips, and asked lightly:

"Have you ever heard of the master of the Pleasant House?"

"Did Xiang Ye mean the singer in the painting boat? It seems to be called Xiao Yiran, right? ”

"It's this woman, who is in the house now."

"What are you going to do with Xiangye getting her to the house?"

"This woman not only understands the study of gardens, but also knows all the calligraphy and painting, especially her appearance, which is really stunning in the world."

"Congratulations to Xiangye."

Both of them understood Hu Weiyong's intentions and congratulated Hu Weiyong together.

"At this time, it is still too early to congratulate, the key is how to deal with the matter in front of you. One is not good, I am afraid that I will be caught by the cow herder. ”

"Xiangye is too worried, right? Now whether it is the minister of the DPRK and the central government, or the border guard, seven or eight out of ten are the people of the prime minister, even if they are caught, what can they do? ”

"You can't say that, there's still a person who has a heart. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it has still been very popular. If it weren't for the fact that this incident had come more abruptly, the old man had planned to do it in another two years, when he was a little older. Alas! ”

Speaking of this, Hu Weiyong couldn't help but sigh.
