Chapter 49: Rising Again (1)

Jiang Wan only felt that there was something wrong with Liuying, and naturally she would not go far when she went out in the middle of the night. But Jiang Wan followed behind Liuying and found that Liuying had walked a lot. Just as Jiang Wan was still guessing the destination of the flowing firefly, the flowing firefly finally stopped.

The place where the fireflies stopped was where a grave was. There was also a pair of candles in front of the grave that shone with a faint light, and the candles were blown by the night wind, and the flame seemed to be extinguished at any moment.

It was a new grave, and there was a lot of paper money scattered around it.

Jiang Wan stood not far away, watching Liuying squat down, she put down the basket she was holding in her hand, and took out the incense, candle and fruit in the basket. Liuying squatted there and burned some paper money, and Jiang Wan couldn't see Liuying's expression at this time.

When Liu Ying stood up, Jiang Wan saw that it was the tomb of the fourth aunt. Liuying came out in the middle of the night to pay tribute to the fourth aunt, isn't it familiar with the fourth aunt?

Jiang Wan didn't have time to think about it and went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

When she returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was already dark. Seeing that Xie Wenxuan was sleeping soundly, Jiang Wan took off her clothes, pretended that nothing had happened, and lay down on the bed.

Early in the morning, when Xie Wenxuan and Jiang Wan were having breakfast, they heard the maid outside the door say, "Did you hear about it this morning?" Madame was frightened. ”

"What happened?"

"Madame got up in the morning with a rag doll thrown on the bed. That rag doll is dressed exactly like the fourth aunt. There was blood all over his face, but he frightened his wife. Not only Madame, but even the maid in front of Madame was frightened. ”

"Could it be that the fourth aunt is coming back to ask for her life? I came to the Prime Minister's Mansion late, sister, what happened to these four aunts back then was really related to Mrs.? ”

"I don't know about this, when I came, the fourth aunt was already crazy. However, I have heard a few old ladies in the house talk about it, saying that back then, the twins died a little strangely. It was fine at first, but suddenly it didn't work. The old man went to find the imperial doctor and came back, and a pair of children died like this. Who do you say can withstand such a big blow, these four aunts are so crazy. The doctor came to diagnose and treat them, and also said that the two children were congenitally deficient, so they died. It's not good to say anything more. However, I heard that when I came to collect the bodies of the two children, the lips of the two children were black, most likely, poisoned. ”

Xie Wenxuan was startled, and the spoon in his hand fell into the bowl, making some noises. The two maids outside the door immediately ran away and didn't dare to say anything more.

Jiang Wan saw Xie Wenxuan's panicked expression and asked, "Eldest sister, what's wrong?" Isn't the eldest sister really knowing? ”

Xie Wenxuan looked outside the house, made sure that there was no one, and said to Jiang Huan, "Actually, I was still young when the children of the fourth aunt died. At that time, I saw that her yard was full of people, so I also looked around. The two maids were right, the children's lips were black. But no one told my father, and I didn't understand at the time, let alone say anything. When I got older, I gradually felt a little strange, but by this time I was dead and had no proof. ”

No wonder Xie Wenxuan said in front of Wang Ying that she knew the death of the fourth aunt's pair of children.

Jiang Wan asked, "Who was the one who collected the child's body in the first place?" ”

Xie Wenxuan thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be today's housekeeper Huo Qing." At that time, he was just an ordinary subordinate. ”

It would be easy to say, if this matter was done by Wang Ying. Then Huo Qing must have gotten Wang Ying's help from this matter, so that he could sit in the position of housekeeper in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Jiang Wan also found that this Huo Qing is still speaking to Wang Ying to this day. Just yesterday, when the body of the fourth aunt was found, Huo Qing's performance was obvious.

"That body was buried by Huo Qing?" Jiang Wan asked again.

Xie Wenxuan said, "There seems to be another person to help." By the way, it is Mama Zhang, who has served the fourth aunt. However, her eyes have not been very good, and after the fourth aunt went crazy, my father saw the face of the fourth aunt and still left her in the prime minister's mansion. ”

"Hmm."

"Why did you remember to ask this?"

Asked casually. But eldest sister, do you also think this matter is related to your aunt? ”

Xie Wenxuan paused and shook his head, "Actually, I'm not sure." It must be a matter of human life, and I dare not say nonsense without evidence. ”

"But do you believe in karma? If someone doesn't even spare a newborn child, I think she will be punished! ”

"Fourth sister ......" Xie Wenxuan looked at Jiang Wan in a daze.

Jiang Wan tilted her head and said, "Huh? ”

"When you reply, it seems completely different. Extremely smart and ......"

"And what?"

"And a great sense of justice."

"Don't my eldest sister like this?"

Xie Wenxuan smiled and said, "Naturally, I like it." It's also great that you're doing this, at least you'll be less bullied. ”

Jiang Wan smiled and didn't say much about this matter, but said, "Eldest sister, I'll make a bet with you, this time the matter of the fourth aunt will definitely be able to come to light." ”

"How do you know?"

Jiang Wan smiled mysteriously, "Because the ghost of the fourth aunt has come to ask for her life!" ”

Xie Wenxuan couldn't help but say, "You, you actually used these words to trick me." ”

Jiang Wan said brightly, "Eldest sister might as well continue to take a look." How can I stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion these days? ”

"Then you have to stay with me."

"It's a deal."

In the evening, according to Jiang Huan's instructions, Liuying kept staring at Wang Ying's courtyard. When Liuying ran back to say goodbye, Jiang Wan was sipping tea with Xie Wenxuan.

"Miss, as you might expect."

Jiang Wan put down the teacup and asked, "The person has already left?" ”

Hotaru nodded, "Well, through the back door." ”

"Let's go, let's follow."

"Well, miss."

Xie Wenxuan didn't understand what the master and servant were doing at all, and asked puzzledly, "What are you talking about?" Beat me dumb riddles in front of me. ”

Liuying covered her lips and smiled, "Miss, if you want to know what we're talking about, just come with us." ”

Xie Wenxuan looked outside and said, "It's so late, you still have to go out?" ”

Jiang Wan said, "Eldest sister, something?" ”

"Yesterday I had a night of trouble. Today, Shen Lian will bring Gong'er over to sleep with me. Fourth sister, I'm afraid it's ...... tonight"

Jiang Wan understood the meaning of Xie Wenxuan's words, and said, "It's okay, then I'll go back to my courtyard to sleep tonight." Since the eldest sister didn't want to go along, then Liuying and I left first. If it's late, you may have missed it. ”

"Good. The fourth sister went early and returned early. ”

When Jiang Wan and Liuying left the Prime Minister's Mansion, they asked, "Is there Huo Qing with you?" ”

Liu Yingqi said, "How does Miss know?" ”

Jiang Wan smiled silently, and then said, "Can you find a way to let my father know?" ”

Liuying shook her head, "Xiangye is not in the mansion, it seems that something has gone out." ”

Jiang Wan suddenly felt a pity, if Xie Qi was there, she believed that she could see a good show. It seems that she should not die?

Regardless of whether Xie Qi was there or not, Jiang Wan decided to take a look. Liuying had already prepared a carriage, and after Jiang Wan got into the carriage, she followed the carriage in front of her.

The carriage circled a certain street, probably to make sure no one was following. Fortunately, Jiang Wan was prepared and followed from a distance, but she didn't let them notice it.

In a short time the carriage was out of town. When Hotaru was about to follow, an uninvited guest suddenly came to the carriage. I only saw a red shadow flash, and in an instant, there was already one more person in the carriage.

"Who are you and how are you here?" Liuyi scolded.

The person who came was Murong Yan'er, and Jiang Wan didn't want to meet her here and now.

Murong Yan'er didn't care about Liuying at all, straightened her skirt, and said, "Jianghu emergency, do me a favor." ”

"Do You Know ......"

Liu Ying wanted to say something, but was stopped by Jiang Huan. Jiang Wan said, "Won't you be chased by General Wei again?" ”

Murong Yan'er's eyes widened, she looked at Jiang Wan and said, "You, how do you know?" ”

Jiang Wan realized that she had missed her mouth, and hurriedly said, "How many people don't know about the matter between you and General Wei?" ”

Murong Yan'er smiled freely and said, "My father-in-law is old, so he is confused. It's okay to take me to meet some sons, I can't look at those weak scholars. ”

Murong Yan'er cares about Jiang Huai, so naturally others look down on her. Wei Xin knows about this. He also wanted to take Murong Yan'er to meet other sons, which showed that he had other plans in his heart.

This stupid girl didn't know that Wei Xin was for her good.

"By the way, I think I've seen you. Ah, I remembered, it was in the Prime Minister's House. At that time, I was only looking for Jiang Huai, and I only remember to look at you, but I didn't talk to you. Am I mistaken? ”

Jiang Wan smiled and shook her head, "You're not mistaken. I am Xie Ning, the fourth lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now I am married to the prince of Yuwangfu. ”

"Chu Yu! I've heard my father-in-law mention it. Originally, you, a beautiful woman like a flower and jade, married him, and you may have lost. But now that Chu Yu has returned to normality, you won't lose. Since I was a child, Chu Yu has been good-looking, much better looking than me, and I was jealous of him when I was a child. However, the eldest princess told me that a woman's appearance is not the most important thing, but to realize her own value and not lose to any man. Speaking of which, when I came back this time, I thought I could see her, but it's a pity that I ......" Speaking of this, Murong Yan'er's expression darkened.

Jiang Wan couldn't tell Murong Yan'er that the person she regretted was right in front of her.

"Since you're here, why don't you come with me to watch a good show?" Jiang Wan said in a relaxed tone.

Murong Yan'er swept away the haze and asked, "What's the show?" Take me with you. I like to watch a good show the most. ”

Jiang Wan said, "At that time, you are only allowed to watch, not to make a sound." ”

"Okay."

Jiang Wan had already estimated the whereabouts of the carriage in front, so she stopped Liuying early so that she wouldn't be discovered.

"Liuying, you wait for me here, I'll go over with Miss Murong."

"Miss, don't leave the slave!"

Jiang Wan patted Liuying's shoulder and said, "It's not that I don't take you, but you don't know martial arts, and it's a burden to carry you." I'll just go with Miss Murong. ”

Murong Yan'er couldn't wait to say, "That's it." Don't waste time, what if you miss the show? ”

Hotaru had no choice but to pout and say, "Okay then." Then you go early and come back early. The slave and maid are afraid here alone. ”

"Hmm."

Jiang Wan and Murong Yan'er were as light as swallows, and they followed the carriage closely. Jiang Wan led Murong Yan'er to hide in a hidden place, watching the carriage in front of her stop.

Murong Yan'er said, "I can't see it, you are a young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion who is not low in martial arts!" ”

Jiang Wan said, "It's easy to say." Aren't you also very powerful? ”

Murong Yan'er smiled, "I've also experienced it." ”

She also taught Murong Yan'er one and a half moves back then!

The people in front of them had already begun to speak, and Jiang Wan and Murong Yan'er stopped chatting.

It was Wang Ying and Huo Qing who got off the carriage. Huo Qing also had a shovel at hand.

"I don't believe that the dead can make some name for the living. Huo Qing, dig up the grave for me, I want to see if she has appeared. Wang Ying said angrily, obviously after being frightened, she thought about things calmly for a while, and felt that it was not a ghost.

Huo Qing took the shovel, but did not act immediately, but asked, "Madam, do we really want to do this?" If it's really a ghost, let's dig her grave like this, I'm afraid it will attract her even greater revenge! ”

Wang Ying reprimanded, "What are you afraid of? I'll take care of something. ”

Huo Qingdao, "Madam, that's right. But after all, I buried the two babies with my own hands. At that time, they were still alive! Over the years, I also feel that I have done something wrong, and I have been worried! ”

Wang Ying became cautious and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Wasn't he already dead at the time? The imperial doctor who came to check on it had already been disarmed and returned to the field. Even if the master asks you to find it, you can't find it, right? ”

Huo Qing said, "Fortunately, the master of this matter ordered the little one to do it, if it was someone else, maybe he really found the imperial doctor." ”

"You're saying that the Imperial Doctor is still alive?"

"This small one has not yet been identified. Even if he is alive, he is very old. What's more, he also received a lot of silver from his wife back then. ”

"In that case, what are you afraid of? I was able to do what I did back then, and I won't be calculated by that little slut anymore today. Dig me ......"

"Yes, ma'am." Huo Qing spat in the palm of his hand, preparing to dig up the grave of the fourth aunt with a shovel.

Murong Yan'er on the side couldn't hold back for a long time, and said, "They are too much." People are dead, and graves are dug. I really didn't expect the prime minister's wife to be such a person. No, I'm going to have to stop them. ”

Murong Yan'er has always been chivalrous, and when she saw this, she naturally wanted to make a move. Jiang Wan hurriedly stopped her, so as not to be self-defeating. When Jiang Wan stopped her, Murong Yan'er was a little unhappy, "I thought you were also a kind person, but I didn't expect you to just come to see the play." I wouldn't have been with you if I had known. ”

Murong Yan'er shook off Jiang Huan's hand, and was just about to appear, when she suddenly heard a scolding, "Stop!" ”
