Hearing the news from the front yard, Jiang Jingjing got up from the bed, and her eyes were as dark as a deep well.

"Master, are you alright?"

"Hehe, Wen's is still alive, how can I be fine!"

Soon, a letter came from the front yard, saying that a family banquet was going to be held.

"Master, you're still sick, let's not go!"

"Go, how can you not go!"

At the same time, Wen also returned to He'an Park with Qu Chensi.

"Tatsumi, you did a very good job today."

Wen's eyes were still swollen, but his expression was joyful.

"Mother, why are you?" Before Qu Chensi's words were finished, he was intercepted by Wen.

Wen Shi held his son's face and said seriously: "Chen'er, you remember, everything my mother did was for you, understand?" ”

Qu Chensi nodded ignorantly.

"Chen'er, tonight's family banquet, you must go, remember, you can't cause trouble, and you can't have a quarrel with Qu Miaoling, you know?"

Qu Chensi continued to nod.

Wen was satisfied, and let Taolei put eggs on her red and swollen eye sockets.

In the evening, the old lady did not come under the pretext of being unwell, Wu Dehou's expression stiffened for a moment, he raised his wine glass, spoke freely, and praised the Wen family who was not shocked, and even praised Qu Chensi He also praised a few words.

This table of food can be said to be enjoyed by the guests and hosts, with eyebrows and smiles.

At the end of the family banquet, everyone was about to leave, Qu Miaoling suddenly said: "Father, I see that it is close to the time when I am married, but I have not personally investigated many places in my mother's dowry list, some time ago I met with Princess Chasing the Moon, she also mentioned this matter to me, I thought that what the princess said was right, I can't get married, and then go to my mother's fiefdom to inspect!" ”

Wu Dehou had a loud alarm in his heart, and so did Wen.

"Miao Ling, what do you mean?"

"Father, I heard that my mother has several manors on the outskirts of the capital, and I want to go over and investigate."

Just wanted to go and see Zhuangzi, Wu Dehou put his mind at ease, "Since you want to, then go, it's just that those Zhuangzi are remote, Miao Ling should be careful." ”

"Mother, what do you think?"

Wen smiled awkwardly, she didn't expect this Qu Miaoling's movements to be so fast, and she would actually hit the idea of those manors at this time.

She pinched the corner of her clothes angrily, and said with a forced smile: "Master Hou has agreed, I naturally have nothing to say, Miao Ling will go if she wants to!" ”

"That's good, my daughter will leave tomorrow and go early and come back early."

After Qu Miaoling finished speaking, she glanced at Wen Shi meaningfully, and then left with the gentle model behind her.

Everyone left, Wen asked Qu Chensi to go back to rest quickly, and he was in a hurry in the house.

"Madam, some of those manors in the outer city have already been pawned out by us!"

"I still need you to say that now I should find a way to stop Qu Miaoling!"

Wen yelled.

"Madam, the slave has an idea."

Wen's eyes Iran, "You say? ”

"If Qu Miaoling goes to the manor, she will naturally learn about our small moves, but what if she can't reach the county lord's fief at all?" Momoxin smiled sympathetically.

When Wen Shi heard this, his brows first relaxed, and then suddenly he was gone.

"Elm head, if Qu Miaoling really has an accident on the way there, we will all be finished!"

Momoxin was reprimanded and rolled out of the bedroom in a panic.

And after Taoxin fled, Wen suddenly said: "Taolei, you say, if Qu Miaoling is killed by the thugs, won't we clear the suspicion?" ”

"Madame mean—"

Tao Lei understood in seconds, she looked at Wen's, and the other party nodded slowly.

"The slave and maid immediately ordered someone to do it."

Tao Lei left in a hurry, and Wen smiled smilingly.

Qu Miaoling, you can't fight me!

Back at Wanzhen Courtyard, Qu Miaoling and Qingrou immediately began to prepare.

Looking at Gentle and busy, bringing clothes, pastries, and commonly used mouthwash cups, even the futon she likes, Gentle wants to bring it.

In the end, he was stopped by Qu Miaoling, who couldn't cry or laugh, "Gentle, let's not go on an outing, we don't need so much!"

"But miss."

"Gentle, obedient."

Gently and aggrievedly, he took out the packed things again, and only chose some necessary things, such as clothes, shoes and socks, such as money.

Qu Miaoling looked soft, and her thoughts couldn't help but drift away.

Why did she always feel that something wasn't right?

Since she proposed to go to the manor to inspect, she also had a certain understanding of Wen's crimes.

At that time, Wen's expression was indeed a little frightened, but the raised eyebrows that followed, as well as the slightly suppressed corners of the mouth, these series of small movements always made Qu Miaoling feel that it was not so simple.

What's wrong?

Qu Miaoling was also confused, but let's take one step at a time.

The next morning, Qu Miaoling got into the carriage, and there were a total of four manors in the fiefdom of the county lord of Huiling, each of which had its own steward, and they did not communicate with each other.

They report directly to Wen.

Qu Miaoling sat in a carriage all morning before coming to the first manor.

The manor, surrounded by verdant mountains and green trees, is very beautiful.

Qu Miaoling asked the guards to knock on the door, but after a long time, no one came out.

"Miss, the minion goes over and has a look!"

This person is a tall horse and a stout guard, which Min Jie specially prepared for her when he knew that she was going to go far away.

Attached are three powerful guards.

Standing there, these four people had a sense of inviolable majesty.

Qu Miaoling agreed, and the Qiao guard walked over and "banged" twice at the door.

The big iron door trembled, and it seemed that it was about to fall apart.

Xu was violent and miraculous, and the door finally opened, but it was a young boy.

"What's the matter!"

The kid didn't look big, but his voice was urn-like, not short, he spoke with his head up, but his tone was not weak.

"I'm here to take care of your affairs!"

Guarding Joe didn't care, he put his hands on the iron door, and the door opened.

The boy shouted, "What are you doing, do you know where this is?" This is Huangzhuang, beware of our stewards sending you to prison! ”

In the carriage, Qu Miaoling's brows furrowed more and more.

If she remembers correctly, this Zhuangzi is taken care of by her mother's cronies, and her aunt also mentioned that she is in charge of things, and she is a proper person.

Why is it that when his mother is gone, he has changed as a person?

She motioned to gently lift the curtain of the carriage.

"I don't know when the steward of this manor has become a mediocre man who listens to the villain's words?"

"You-"

The kid stretched out his hand and pointed his finger at Qu Miaoling.

"Presumptuous!"

Guard Qiao shouted, "This is Lord An Hui!" ”

"Lord Anhui!" The man was stunned.

After a while, a scattered voice came.

"Who, dare to make trouble in Huangzhuang, don't die! Come on, get me out! ”

"Yes!"

A group of stick-wielding family members rushed out and surrounded Qu Miaoling and the others.

The kid who was scared stupid said in a daze, "The one in charge, this is the county lord of An Hui!" ”

"Bang bang bang."

The stick fell to the ground.

The steward was also stunned, and he hurriedly knelt down, "I don't know if the county lord has arrived, and I have missed the distance, and I will go to the county lord to atone for my sins." ”

Seeing the steward kneeling, the people in the Zhuangzi knelt down.

Qu Miaoling slowly walked out of the carriage.

"Heads up!" Qu Miaoling's voice was cold.

Those people looked up as she said, and she looked over one by one, and none of their faces were familiar.

These people were not arranged by her mother at all.

She was even in this group of people, looking at Duwen's distant relatives.

Qu Miaoling hooked her lips and sneered, did this Wen family use her mother's manor as a shelter? What dirty, smelly stuff is sent here?

I'm afraid it's not the same for the remaining Zhuangzi!

Qu Miaoling's eyes became colder and colder, she ignored those people, and walked straight to Zhuangzi, not far after she entered, she heard the sound of chirping behind her.

"This county lord An Hui should be the daughter of the county lord of Huiling! Then is this Zhuangzi also the county lord's! ”

"What nonsense, you forgot, whose person is our Zhou Steward!"

"Mrs. Hou is not kind to us, that's natural, but this imperial village was given to the Lord of Huiling by the Holy Lord!"

"Don't forget, this Huiling county lord married into the Wude Hou Mansion, married a chicken with a chicken, the Huiling county lord died, these things are naturally the Hou Ye's, then it is also Madame's!"

Qu Miaoling listened to these words, and the coldness in her eyes was even worse.

It seems that this Wen family has run the manor into an iron bucket, but it is not royal, but her Wen family's own!

What a daring!

She sat on the high chair, and when she saw that the steward of the week had no orders from her, she got up without saying anything, and pretended to please her.

"Your Royal Highness, you are here to relax, the servant has prepared a yard for you, and meals and hot water have also been delivered, do you see if-"

Is this going to drive her away?

This week, the steward is really in cahoots with the Wen family, and his every move is like a mold carved out.

Qu Miaoling got up and looked like she had listened to Steward Zhou's words and went to the other courtyard.

Before stepping out of the threshold, she suddenly said: "Steward Zhou, how do I remember that the surname of the original steward of this manor is Lu?" ”

When the steward heard this, his face turned cold at first, and then he lowered his voice and said: "What the county lord said is that Lu Jinzhong, he secretly stole the treasures of the manor, and he was already expelled by his father!" ”

Stealing?

Qu Miaoling turned around, smiled coldly, and said that Lu Jinzhong stole from others, I'm afraid it wasn't the Wen family's means to get rid of people!

It's just framing a good servant, how simple!

Qu Miaoling returned to his other courtyard, looked at the table of vegetarian food in front of him, and couldn't stand it softly.

"Those people treat Miss so harshly, just now I obviously saw that the cook sent wine and meat to Steward Zhou, why did we only have green vegetables here!"

Looking at the green in front of her, Qu Miaoling smiled.

She also roughly understood the situation of this Zhuangzi.

"Be gentle, eat more vegetarian, it's good for your body!"

After speaking, Qu Miaoling ate with his head bored.

There is no way to be gentle, so you can only pick a good dish for Qu Miaoling.

Staying overnight in the first Zhuangzi, Qu Miaoling left early the next morning.

That week, the steward went to send it off in a fake way, and Qu Miaoling's carriage hadn't gone far yet.

Then the door slammed shut.

"Master, they've gone too far! You're the master of the manor! ”

Qu Miaoling didn't say anything, but the meaning in her eyes was vague.

went to two more manors, the situation of which was similar to the first, Qu Miaoling didn't stay long, and came to the third manor.
