As soon as the sky was dark, Mingran was awakened by the sound of small voices outside the house.

"Come in." She shouted at the outside of the house in displeasure.

The door was pushed open, and Lan Ling knelt outside the screen as soon as she entered the room, "Miss, Aunt Feng and Mrs. Song are dead." ”

Ming Ran got barefoot on the ground and quickly walked in front of Lan Ling, "Didn't you tie up Mrs. Song last night?" ”

Lan Ling kowtowed and said, "The slave maid kept watch on the roof of Mrs. Song's house all night last night, and she didn't go back to the house. Early this morning, the subordinates of Su Mansion found the bodies of two people in the pond. ”

Zhuqing entered the house and put on a big coat for Mingran, and glanced at her snow-white feet, "Miss, sit on the soft couch, the ground is cold." ”

Lan Ling put his head on the ground, not daring to raise his head or get up.

Ming Ran sat on the soft couch and looked at her, "Get up, I don't blame you for this." ”

Lan Ling got up and stood aside with a bow.

"The cause of death?" Mingran had a pair of beautiful eyes hanging lightly, wrapped in a snow fox and sitting cross-legged.

Lan Ling raised her head and said, "Yunhe said that she drowned, but as for why she fell into the pond, she is still secretly observing. ”

After returning home after the palace banquet that day, Yunhe went to Su Mansion again.

"Let Yunhe protect Miss Su, this matter should be the hand of the eldest princess. You tracked down Mrs. Song before, but was anyone noticed? ”

Lan Ling closed his eyes and thought about it, then shook his head firmly.

Ming Ran sat motionless on the soft couch, bowing his head and saying nothing.

The room was silent, and the carbon basin in the room occasionally cracked with the sound of a charcoal fire.

About an hour later, there was a rush of trotting in the cloister outside the room.

Mingran showed a look of anticipation.

Fuyue pushed the door in, strode to the soft couch, and said, "Miss, the matter between the eldest princess and Master Su has been spread outside." ”

"How?"

"On the way back to the house, I heard the people talking about the eldest princess who poisoned the horse in order to stay with Master Su, and now she has poisoned Mrs. Su."

Ming Ran sneered, "These news were released by the people of Runwangfu?" ”

"The slave maid doesn't know, when I was guarding outside King Run's Mansion, I only saw Princess Run's carriage yesterday, which was the direction of going to Shen Mansion, and King Run took two people when it was almost dark last night, and it seemed to be out of the city."

Ming Ran groaned slightly, it seems that this matter is deliberately released by the Shen Mansion, no wonder the eldest princess is in a hurry to kill Aunt Feng's mouth.

Princess Run must have returned to the Shen family to tell what she had seen and heard after the palace banquet garden, but Princess Run had been following the eldest princess that day, and she might have heard more secrets.

Now that the matter between the eldest princess and Master Su has been revealed, and Mrs. Su has been buried for less than a month, she only needs to open the coffin for an autopsy, and you can find that the symptoms of Mrs. Su's death are consistent with Shen Xing, as long as the cause of Mrs. Su's death is found, it is like finding out the cause of Shen Xing's death.

In this way, King Run must have gone to inspect Mrs. Su's mausoleum yesterday, but I don't know if his people can find out what poison is in Mrs. Su.

It's just that Mr. can easily recognize this poison, because he is a capable person cultivated by the first emperor, and the people brought by King Kerun will most likely not be able to distinguish Mrs. Su's poison.

But An Xuqiao heard nothing more than that day, he knew the poison in Mrs. Su, and he also knew that the dead soul came from the royal family.

After hearing the rumors outside, he would definitely be able to guess that Shen Xing's death and Mrs. Su were the same kind of poison.

If An Xu Qiao told what he knew, once the Shen family knew the way to return the dead soul, they would naturally think of the person who really wanted to kill Shen Xing.

Ming Ran suddenly got up and sat in front of the mirror, waving his hand to signal Zhuqing to make up.

This poison is not whether King Run can find out or not, but it must not be said by An Xuqiao, it was An Xuqiao who begged him to open the coffin that day, if the emperor knew that this matter was caused by himself, he would not be able to record this account on his head.

This is not a trivial matter, it involves the court situation, she can still not provoke it.

She led Zhu Qinggang to the door of the mansion, and a maid behind her quickly followed, "Miss, Madame, please go to Haitang Courtyard." ”

Ming Ran glanced at the snowflakes falling in the sky, sighed slightly, and turned to enter the house.

Walking into the Begonia Courtyard, I heard the sound of conversation and laughter in the room in the corridor.

Standing in front of the threshold, she lifted the heavy curtain and looked into the room.

Mrs. Ming sat upright above, smiling all over her face.

On the lower chair sat a woman and a woman.

The woman's body was tilted upwards, and she couldn't see her face clearly, only to see her talking eloquently.

The woman below the woman, with distant eyebrows, a pair of bright almond eyes, a delicate and moving face, her slender jade hands lightly covered the corners of her mouth, and let out an elegant laugh.

Mrs. Ming glanced at the door of the room and said with a smile: "You kid, don't come in and see your fourth aunt soon." ”

Ming Ran resisted the reluctance in his heart and stepped into the room.

Mrs. Ming got up, took Ming Ran's hand to the woman, and said, "This is your fourth aunt, your father's fourth sister, who married to Nanzhou Luanbo Mansion in her early years, so you have never seen it." ”

Mrs. Lu Anbo got up, looked at Ming Ran with a smile, and said, "I should have met at the palace banquet two days ago, but I didn't want to delay on the road, so I just rushed into Beijing yesterday." ”

She glanced sideways at Mrs. Ming, and said, "This dyed and elegant place is really unforgettable." ”

Ming Ran bowed slightly, and said with a light smile: "Thank you Fourth Aunt for your praise." ”

"You're really not humble." Mrs. Ming glanced at her dotingly, then took two more steps, and looked at the woman who had already gotten up, "This is the eldest daughter of your fourth aunt, one year older than you, you should call Sister Yuxi." ”

This daughter is the concubine of Lu Anbo's mansion, Guo Yuxi.

"Sister Yuxi."

"Sister Mingran."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Lu Anbo Mansion has moved into the capital, you can go to Yuxi more in the future." Mrs. Ming let go of Ming Ran's hand and walked back to sit down.

"As long as Sister Yuxi doesn't think I'm making trouble." Ming Ran sat down opposite Mrs. Lu Amber and drank the hot tea.

Guo Yuxi couldn't help laughing and said: "Sister Mingran is joking, I have just arrived, and I don't know anything about the people and things in Beijing. ”

"Yes, in the future, I will be relieved that I will have Ran'er with Xi'er." Mrs. Louamber chimed in.

Mingran grinned, "Then Mingran is disrespectful." ”

The sound of tireless talking gradually sounded in the room, and Uncle Lu'an's mother and daughter kept telling about the style and customs of Nanzhou.

Although Nanzhou also belongs to the Celestial Empire, it is the most remote state city of the Celestial Empire.

At that time, Mrs. Lu Anbo married in Nanzhou and never returned to the capital.

Three years ago, the new emperor ascended the throne, and Lu Anbo began to reuse, and a new house in the capital was given a year ago, and Lu Anbo's family moved into Beijing.

Ming Ran listened to the conversation in the room, his eyes swept out of the window from time to time, and he longed for the mother and daughter of Lu Amber Mansion to go back as soon as possible.

At noon, everyone got up and went to the main hall for dinner.

After a hearty lunch, Mrs. Lu Anbo had not returned for many years because she was married from the Ningyuan Marquis's mansion, and she missed the things in the mansion very much, so Ming Ran led her and Guo Yuxi around the mansion.

It wasn't until the sky darkened that Mrs. Lu Anbo and Guo Yuxi left the Hou Mansion.

The snow-covered road was wet and slippery, and after an afternoon of strolling around the garden, Ming's feet were already tired.

As soon as the two of them were sent away, she returned to Xueliuyuan.

Leaning on the soft couch, Zhuqing gently hammered her legs.

Ming Ran supported his forehead with one hand and closed his eyes to take a nap.
