Immediate Aftermath (1)
Xia Xin's assassination made the royal capital rumorful, and ordinary people didn't know about those grievances, but only knew that there was a girl who died on the street, so they made up all kinds of stories and spread them.
Where there are people, there are stories, and after word of mouth, they are unrecognizable.
And the most convincing story is that the flower thief coveted the beauty of Miss Xia, and wanted to take it away, but when it failed, he killed Miss Xia.
As for Xia Xiang's anger after hearing about it, ordinary people who are keen on spreading rumors will not know.
Being in the royal capital, Xuan Jinhuan has also heard of these rumors, but he thinks it is ridiculous, and he doesn't know who spread this story all over the world.
But a few days later, another incident happened.
The five girls in the Zhenguo Mansion disappeared inexplicably, and their whereabouts are still unknown.
This Yan Wu girl is the daughter of the younger brother of Yan Huan, the prince of Zhenguo, and she is in the boudoir; It is said that the five girls of Yan went to their aunt's house with their mothers and sisters to celebrate their birthdays, and they were arranged to rest in the wing room at noon, and no one went in and out on the way, but when the female envoy went in to call the five girls of Yan, they found that the room was empty.
Originally, the Zhenguo Mansion blocked the news, but for some reason the news still spread.
The disappearance of Miss Yan Wu, combined with the previous rumors after Xia Xin was killed, can make people think that she was a flower thief.
It's just that such a coincidence happens together, and it's obviously not as simple as a coincidence.
And it wasn't until the day after the incident that Miss Yan Wu was found in a temple that had long been deserted; At that time, the fifth girl Yan was already delirious, and she just muttered with fear on her face that there was a ghost.
The disappearance of the fifth girl Yan was already well known, and her reputation had been lost, so the Yan family had to send her to Zhuangzi to avoid the limelight.
And the Yan family is also secretly investigating this matter, wanting to find out the mastermind behind the scenes; However, in the end, it was found on the head of the Chu family, and it is said that a tassel was found in the abandoned temple, which should be Chu Yan, the second son of Chu Taiwei.
Chu Yan and his brother Chu Ci are both young and promising sons, and the girls in the royal capital all want to become the young ladies of the Chu family.
Not long ago, Chu Yan had been married to the eight girls of the Danyang Ning family, and everyone said that they were a natural pair of talented women and good looks.
If it was Chu Yan who designed to kidnap Miss Yan Wu to ruin her reputation, I'm afraid no one would believe it if she said it.
It's just that there is news from Zhuangzi that Miss Yan Wu is pregnant, and under questioning, Miss Yan Wu admitted that she was raped by the second son of Chu, and the son in the womb is the child of the second son of Chu.
So the Duchess of Zhenguo and the grandmother of Yan Wu, Wan Shi, boarded the door of the Chu family together and asked the Chu family to give an explanation, otherwise they could only see the government.
I don't know what the two families talked about, but I only know that the final result is that the Chu family withdrew from the marriage with Miss Ning Ba, and Chu Yan welcomed the fifth girl Yan as his wife.
This result is equivalent to taking over the appointment, it is indeed the second prince of Chu who forcibly abducted the fifth girl Yan, such a thing has become a joke in the royal capital, saying that the second prince of Chu, who originally looked dignified and talented, is such a person, and he is really not good-looking.
And the Yan family and the Chu family have always been incompatible because of the dispute between the king of Qi and the king of Jin, but now they have become in-laws; And the fifth girl of Yan married into the Chu family in this way, which doomed this marriage to be a tragedy.
Xuan Jinhuan, who watched this farce all the time, only now did he see the mystery of this farce, and the real driving force behind the scenes was really sinister.
The five girls of the Yan family, the second son of the Chu family, and the wife of the second son of Chu, Ning Ba girl, this farce can be regarded as involving the mothers of the three mothers in the palace.
The two families of Yan and Chu are already incompatible, and this marriage not only does not allow the two families to release their previous suspicions, but instead makes the contradiction even higher; The second son of Chu is a promising junior, but the fifth girl Yan is only a concubine, if it weren't for this matter, she might not even be able to enter the door of the Chu family, let alone become the second young lady of the Chu family. The second is the innocent implicated Ning Ba girl, originally the Ning family girl married the son of the Chu family, so the two families became friends, but they were disturbed by this matter; The two families have always been like this, if they become in-laws, if they don't, they will be enemies, so although Ning Ba girl is not half at fault, it will be difficult to marry such a good family, but it is not to make enemies.
Because both Yan and Chu were involved in the prince, after the accident of the fifth girl Yan at that time, Yun Yan Pavilion was also secretly investigating, and the results were really shocking.
Someone kidnapped Yan Wu and threw her in the deserted temple, and then quietly stunned the second son of Chu and took her to the deserted temple; Under the effect of the aphrodisiac, the second son of Chu and the fifth girl of Yan had a night of lingering, and then the second son of Chu was stunned again, and when he woke up, he was already lying on his bed in clothes, and it was just a spring dream.
This twist and turn involved the Yan family, the Ning family, and the Chu family, but it was Xie Lan who was really targeted.
As long as they let them come back to it and think about it carefully, they will definitely react; According to the traditional saying that the beneficiary is the mastermind behind the scenes, they will definitely suspect Xie Lan when the time comes.
Those people are really ruthless!
But since things have developed like this, Xuan Jinhuan has thought about it, so let them speculate with each other; Anyway, this is a game of life or death, and mercy to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.
The next thing to do is to put on a play and make them doubt each other, but no one will clarify for themselves.
That Ning Ba girl is the most innocent person who is implicated, I heard that she is gentle and gentle, and she has both talent and virtue, she should have a happy marriage; It's just that after Miss Ning Ba was retreated by the Chu family, her eldest aunt, Mrs. Ning, wanted to marry her to her mother's nephew, who had eloped with his childhood sweetheart, although this matter was concealed to death, but after all, there is no impermeable wall in the world.
As long as this play is sung well, many things will be completely different.
First of all, she wanted to solve the twists and turns of the Yan family and the Chu family, and as for the Ning Ba girl, she would also help out.
No one wants to marry someone like that, so Miss Ning Ba is also crying day and day, but she can't withstand the arrangement of her elders.
Fortunately, the marriage between Miss Ning Ba and that son-in-law was only discussed by the two patriarchs, and before the three media and six hires were clearly met, everything was easy to say.
Whether it is the Yan family or the Chu family, they actually want to marry the Ning family.
As long as the people of the Chu family think that after Chu Yan and Ning Ba divorced, the Yan family intended to ask to marry Ning Ba girl, then the matter would be interesting; And Mrs. Ning's maternal nephew, but there is still some marriage with the Yan family, his father was a student of Zhen Guogong's father, but he still has a friendship with Zhen Guogong, but time has passed but there are few contacts.
At that time, the people of the Chu family will only do everything possible to prevent Miss Ning Ba from marrying that son, and they will also feel that the matter between Chu Yan and Miss Yan is planned by the people of the Yan family behind their backs.
And during this time, the former dynasty was slightly calm, and the big drama planned some time ago should also be staged.
