Chapter 121: The Rumors Investigation
Wen Hao was stunned and hurriedly chased after him.
When the people on the side of the road saw this, they hurriedly took refuge from the side.
At this time, two women in the two carriages happened to get out of the carriage, and they were the daughters of the Ye He family. One is He Yilan, the daughter of the He family, and the other is Ye Hanmu, the daughter of the Ye family.
As soon as the two got out of the car, they saw a vicious-looking dog rushing towards them. The two of them suddenly lost their faces, and they didn't know what to do in a panic. The guards of the two families hurried over to block them.
Wen Hao saw that the situation was wrong, so he hurriedly performed light skills and chased after him, and finally blocked Xiao Hei's way before he could collide with them. In order to prevent it from running around again, Wen Hao hugged it in his arms.
He turned to the two girls and said, "I'm really sorry that I didn't look good for a while, and I collided with two nobles." ”
However, Xiao Hei yelled at the two of them very uncooperatively, and Wen Hao was very embarrassed.
He Yilan reacted quickly, and the person in front of him seemed to be His Royal Highness the Prince's subordinate, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "It's nothing, just pay more attention next time, after all, you are also unintentional now." ”
But Ye Hanmu was not so easy to speak, she raised her eyebrows, and said, "Please take care of your dog, what if it hurts others, can you afford to pay for it?"
Although Wen Hao didn't like the woman in front of him, after all, he was at fault first, so he said: "Yes, yes, I'm really sorry, there will be no next time." ”
Ye Hanmu wanted to say a few more words, but as a result, He Yilan pulled her sleeve, approached her and whispered, "He is from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." ”
When Ye Hanmu heard this, he hurriedly swallowed what he was about to say, and said, "It's okay this time, just pay attention next time." ”
Wen Hao's ear power is extremely good, and he actually heard what He Yilan said just now, so he had a even worse impression of the two women in front of him.
However, he didn't show it, and said, "Okay, I'll pay attention next time." ”
Actually, He Yilan didn't want to remind Ye Hanmu, she wanted to make a comparison with the prince's guard in front of her, so that she could have a better impression of her, and maybe it could reach the prince's ears. But I am also afraid that I will make others think more about it by watching from the sidelines.
"Miss, why are you here yourself? I have already taken the jewelry. Miss Ye is also here, Miss Ye is good. ”
Ye Hanmu nodded.
Xiao Hei, who was held in Wen Hao's arms, suddenly struggled to jump out, screaming "Wangwang" in his mouth. When Wen Hao saw that the situation was wrong and wanted to leave with Xiao Hei, the maid beside He Yilan spoke.
She said: "Whose dog is this, why don't you know how to take care of it, what should I do if I collide with the two young ladies?
Originally, Wen Hao didn't pay attention to this maid, but because she said this, he inevitably took a second look. This woman has surprisingly large eyes, but she is not very pretty. And her voice seemed to be very harsh, and Wen Hao suddenly remembered what the man who spread the rumors said.
Could it be that this is what Xiao Hei meant?
While he was in doubt, Wen Hao smelled a burst of fragrance again, the same as the fragrance on the ingot of silver! It seems that that rumor is inseparable from the He family.
The maid wanted to say something, but was stopped by He Yilan's fierce look. The maid was obviously a little afraid of He Yilan like this, so she shrank slightly and shut up.
Wen Hao noticed it, and thought to himself: It seems that the concubine of the He family is not as gentle and virtuous as rumored by the outside world, and a look can make her maid afraid, which may be just an illusion.
Wen Hao saw that the result was almost over, so he didn't stay long, said "goodbye" and left.
Prime Minister's Office.
Han Xiangmo recuperated at home for a few days, and was finally able to get up and walk, but he couldn't sit down yet, and even if he sat down, he had to put a thick cushion on the stool.
Therefore, for the sake of convenience, Han Xiangmo would rather lie on the bed and get moldy than get up and walk around.
However, in the past three days, there have been some signs of rumors sent by Prime Minister Han Qian to investigate. Han Qian didn't hide this matter from Han Xiangmo, so Xiu Tao easily got the latest information on the investigation.
After Xiu Tao understood, she came over excitedly to tell Han Xiangmo.
"Miss, the rumors that the master sent someone to investigate seem to have progressed. It is said that the He family has a little relationship with the household department, Miss, could it be He Yilan, the daughter of the He family?"
Han Xiangmo was not much surprised by this result, just nodded lightly, and said, "You tell me the specific investigation process, I can have a judgment." ”
Xiu Tao said: "It seems that I found a maid of the He family, and I don't know how to be a slave." However, that maid seems to be He Yilan's personal maid. ”
"It seems that this matter is really inseparable from He Yilan, little peach, you continue to inquire, and when the time comes, just tell me the final result." ”
Xiu Tao nodded, but said suspiciously: "Miss, did you suspect Miss He at the beginning, not Miss Ye?"
Han Xiangmo said: "Hmm." She always felt that He Yilan's performance to outsiders was different from her in private.
"Why?" Xiu Tao wondered.
Han Xiangmo said: "I also asked you to agree to this rumor later, but it was only rumored at the beginning that 'His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was molested', and it did not explain who it was." The version of the rumor you told me at the beginning has already been speculated by everyone. Do you think this means that the rumor-monger probably didn't want to make me another protagonist in the rumor?"
Xiu Tao nodded and said, "What is that person's purpose?"
"There were only three people during His Royal Highness the Prince's departure that night, me, He Yilan, and Xia Yiqing. Xia Yiqing likes the son of the historian, which is something that everyone in the capital knows. Naturally, it will not be used as the object of the rumor, and I believe that the person must have taken this into account. In addition, only me and He Yilan are left, no matter who molests the prince, He Yilan and I will appear in everyone's sight. When someone told the prince about this rumor, the prince would inevitably find out about the specific rumor, and the two of us were noticed by the prince. And the prince first suspected who spread this rumor, and it must be me who was already in the rumor! Then He Yilan became the biggest winner among them!"
Xiu Tao still didn't quite understand, and said, "Where did He Yilan win by doing this?"
"The purpose of that dinner is not only for Her Royal Highness the princess to catch the wind and wash the dust, but the queen also has the meaning of looking at her daughter-in-law. Your young lady and I, as the first choice of this crown princess, are naturally stared at by many people. If there is such a rumor, won't I have anything to do with the first choice of the crown princess?"
Xiu Tao then understood: "It turns out that she wants to use this rumor to ruin Miss's reputation, but at the same time, she will let everyone notice her, and use her gentleness to compare with Miss, which will also attract the attention of the prince." ”
Han Xiangmo smiled and said, "The son can be taught!"
"But this is too vicious! ruin my young lady's reputation like this, hum!" Xiu Tao said angrily.
Xiu Tao looked angry, but it made Han Xiangmo laugh, and she smiled: "But she also underestimated His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and my father." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
