Chapter 140: Conspiracy (1)
Murong Yu looked at her face and saw that her eyebrows and eyes were full of seriousness, but she was too careful, but ......
"How do you know of my mother's death? Do you have someone in the palace to take care of? ”
"Third Highness, the eldest princess is the queen's party, so naturally she will not go down the same path with the third highness. As for the death of the mother and concubine of the Third Highness, the old people in the palace naturally know more than I know, and the Third Highness only needs to know that the women have no dissenting intentions, and the women don't need to say much, so they can only wish His Highness all his wishes come true, and the women will retire first. ”
Xia Sihan didn't want to say anything, got up and saluted, and took Xiao Jiu out.
Murong Yu didn't embarrass her, Xia Sihan knew that he was seriously suspicious, and he wouldn't turn over his hole cards to let him know, retaining a sense of mystery so that he didn't dare to act rashly. However, the evidence she left behind will definitely be found out by Murong Yu.
He came to the door today just to arouse Murong Yu's fighting heart, and he was in retreat for half a year, if he didn't take action, he was afraid that he would be completely trampled on by someone if he came out again. Even if there are people in the court to help, they can't withstand the suppression of the eldest princess and the queen.
After Xia Sihan left, Murong Yu stood with his hands in his hands, thinking for a long time before making up his mind.
The corners of Xia Sihan's mouth, who walked out of the door, rose slightly, no matter whether the purpose of this trip was achieved or not, in short, it would be good for Murong Yu and the queen to have a party. Without her help in this life, Murong Yu's pace of progress was much slower. gave him a little sweetness this time, hoping that Murong Yu would not let her down.
Back in the shop, everything was as usual, Xiao Jiu had already gone to Ebony and selected an embroiderer to help.
The news of Xia Sihan's return to the shop spread, and everyone knew that she had been wronged, and seeing that she was released intact, they secretly had their hearts.
Some people are glad that she came out, because the wedding dress is not ready yet. Some people also secretly lamented that she was too lucky, and if she died inside, it would save a lot of trouble. Xia Sihan didn't let these people get their way.
Originally, it took three months for the four embroidery girls to rush to work, but now with the help of the people on the ebony side, Xia Sihan calculated the days, and it could be completed in almost a month and a half. She can also put her heart at ease and make Murong Xue's clothes.
But before that, she has someone else to thank her, and that is Zhang Yanran. Before the accident, Zhang Yanran spared no effort to let her into the cell, but now that she is out, I wonder if Zhang Yanran regrets it? Xia Sihan looked at the two clothes that had been made at hand, put them in the box, and waited for Murong Xue to come.
Two dresses a month, I don't know if the princess can still remember. Just thinking about it, a person came in from outside the shop, wearing a dark blue brocade robe and an ink-colored brocade belt around his waist.
Xia Sihan hurriedly stood up to greet him, "I've seen the prince, I don't know why the prince came?" ”
"Can't this son come if he's fine? Boss Xia is a noble person, don't you forget the princess's clothes? ”
Xia Sihan frowned, the princess's clothes? She smiled, "It turns out that the prince came to get the clothes, and the women thought that the princess and the princess had explained!" ”
"Explain what? What does Yanran have to do with this? ”
"The woman is talkative, yesterday the woman was wronged into the Dali Temple, I was worried that I could not deliver the work on time, and I happened to meet the princess. She said that she would go into the palace to explain, but fortunately, the woman was fine, and she hurried to do it after she came out. ”
Xia Sihan took out the box and presented it, Shizi's face was slightly gloomy, and he left without saying a word after taking the box.
Xia Sihan looked at her back and sneered in his heart. Someone gave a pillow when I dozed off.
Yesterday, the prince already knew about this, and the prince will definitely ask clearly after listening to her words today, so how should Zhang Yanran explain?
Xia Sihan didn't wait, now that the eldest princess has already made a move, if she doesn't block the eldest princess, she really can't swallow this breath. She turned her head to look at Ji Yun who was sitting inside, this matter could not implicate them. So Xia Sihan went outside with some broken silver.
The outer room raised by the horse master should be somewhere in the east of the city, Xia Sihan followed his memory to find the neighborhood, looked around and came to a corner.
Here, there are many beggars living in snails, and at this time they suddenly smelled a smell of meat, and the half-squinted beggar's eyes widened suddenly, and a beautiful woman appeared in front of him.
"Want to eat?" She was holding two buns in her hands, freshly baked and still hot.
The beggar stretched out his hand to grab it, but Xia Sihan shrank back, "Help me do something, the buns are enough, and in addition, some silver will also belong to you." ”
The beggar looked at the bun and the silver, nodded again and again, snatched the bun into his hand, and devoured it.
Xia Sihan looked at the alley not far away, handed him the silver, and instructed: "Help me keep an eye on the lady in the alley, if the master of the horse comes, you write down the time of each visit, and I will come back to you in seven days." ”
When the beggar heard this, he shook his head again and again, "No, no, if it is discovered, it will be miserable." ”
"You don't want the silver either? It's just that you are here to set a time for them to meet, and not for you to listen to the news, what are you afraid of? ”
Xia Sihan added another piece of silver, and the beggar grabbed the silver without thinking about it, and said with a sullen head: "This is what you said, I just have to write down the time, and when the time comes, if something happens to me, don't bother me." ”
"Don't worry, I'll come to you in seven days." Xia Sihan got up to leave, the reason why he wanted to know the time of their meeting was just to play a drama that would make the eldest princess and the concubine master turn against each other.
At the same time, Murong Yu's side is also acting, although the Guogong Mansion has some dealings with him, but at the critical moment, Murong Yu has no one around him who can help, and the queen has also installed eyes and ears. It was Murong Yu who could only let the guards act secretly.
The charges against buying and selling officials can be large or small, and most of the local officials are tacitly acknowledged if there are no special circumstances in normal times. But now it's different, there is still a month before the imperial examination, and then it will be the time for them to close the net. On the surface, the capital is calm, but in fact, it has already been turbulent.
I don't know if King Ning warned the eldest princess behind her back, she really didn't look for trouble again.
However, Xia Sihan was still cautious and waited patiently for news. It's just that during the period, I heard that the princess went to the flower house to drink wine and was angry with the prince, and returned to the Guogong Mansion in a rage.
Instead of picking her up, Shizi said that she was a jealous woman, and the news came from nowhere. In short, Zhang Yanran is now angry, and she regrets her impulsiveness that day. It's just that who's behind it? Zhang Yanran pinched off the flowers on the branches, and her face was frosty.
Xia Sihan, you can let the prince come back and question me, since they got married, although the prince is not favored, they can still be regarded as respectful to each other, and now the prince is questioning himself for her!
Zhang Yanran is not convinced! She is the concubine of the dignified state, Xia Sihan is just a lowly businessman, how can she be compared with her?
