Chapter 53: Falling from the Sky & Disaster
Huang Li and the two mothers-in-law were still in a daze when they came in, except for Lixia and them, there were no other maids in the inner courtyard who could come in, even if there were a few occasional marrying booklets, they were also taken in by the sting, and at noon with the female servant Tuoda also heard the voiceover before daring to do that, and now they were called in again, and the three of them were stunned.
The more lively Huang Li saw that no one asked for a long time, and asked Lixia, who was the best talker on weekdays, if they had missed something just now, or if they shouldn't have come in the first place......
Li Xiang didn't know where to start, so he casually handed the pastries that Chunyu had just stuffed over to Huang Li and them, and sent them away.
She didn't even know when the bracelet appeared, Lixia often packed these things, and Lixia didn't know, the last time Lixia used this box was before the hunt began, and she asked Lixia to send the bracelet back at the end of March. It may not be today, in front of everyone's eyes, it is better to directly stuff her to be frank.
Whether it is the Xianxian Courtyard or the Seven Kings' Mansion, where is the place where casual people enter and exit, this bracelet is like falling from the sky, and it came to her again, as for how this "sky" "fell", she no longer wants to know.
He said that if he took it, he couldn't return it.
Li Xiang still remembers.
Her heart was so blocked that Li Xiang closed the box and asked Lixia to take it and put it away, she didn't even want to see the box with jewelry, she didn't want to do it at all.
"Look at what I do, do your business, and urge them when you're done." Li Xiang went to the window to breathe, and when she turned her head, she found that several girls were staring at her from time to time, not knowing whether to be angry or laughing, so she said a few words, and saw that they hung their heads stupidly, and she turned her head back and still leaned against the window to get distracted, until a housekeeper came outside to deliver something.
A pile of paper full of writing was handed over, and Li Xiang glanced at it roughly and put it in his hand.
"Mother Zhang worked hard, collected these, let's have tea." Li Xiang poured a cup of tea and handed it over, Zhang's mother was flattered and accepted the tea with trepidation.
Zhang's mother is a marry, and there are a lot of maids and mothers-in-law who come over, someone has to take care of it, the palace has the arrangement of the palace, but they are the ones who accompany the marriage, they are the girls, and they are another set, she is one of the few leaders.
She hadn't seen the girl much before, the eldest girl was frail and sickly, she didn't leave the yard for a long time, and they couldn't see anyone, and then she got better, and she didn't like to come out very much, the first time she saw the girl was a few days before she left the cabinet, and the people who added makeup came and went, and they saw the girl for the first time that night, and the last time the servants of the house visited the mistress was the second time, and this was the third time.
"The top ones are the ones that have been taken away, there are people from all over the place, it's very messy, the others in the lotus garden are below, and the ones mentioned above are all found here in Kyoto City." Mother Zhang paused, "Girl, if you want to check the things they had before, you have to tell the house, the old slave can't find it here." ”
Li Xiang glanced at the pile of paper, "I'll fix a book later, and ask my father for help." It's just that the rest of the people in the lotus courtyard have to rely on their mother for some time. ”
"The old slave knows that he should do his best." Zhang's mother held the tea cup, tasted it, put down the cup with a smile, and temporarily retreated after a while.
Flipping through the pile of paper, it is indeed as Zhang's mother said, there are almost everywhere, the beauties who pay tribute from the attached small countries, the good family sent by the vassal king Nagong, the female officials in the palace, the distant relatives of a certain minister, the down-and-out noblewomen who are serious about eight hundred, and so on, and even two singing and dancing girls, which can't be said to be a little related, almost nothing to do with it, except that they are all in the Xiangqi Palace, it can basically be said that there is nothing in common.
The ten people who were taken away, the biggest thing they have in common is that they are still good-looking.
No matter how you look at it, it's confusing.
Murong Jin was detained, the people around him were detained, and the little guy in the study was taken away, this is a matter of common sense, even if there is nothing to symbolically take a few away, who knows if he can cheat something! However, those few people in the Lotus Courtyard who have not been favored or even seen Murong Jin a few times, what are they doing with them?
The more I thought about it, the more clueless I became, Lixia had already sharpened the ink over there, Li Xiang remembered that he had just said that he was going to write to his father, asking him to check if there was anything wrong with these girls, put down the pages in his hand, Li Xiang went to the desk, picked up the pen and thanked him, and suddenly felt that he was really heartbroken.
Actually, what does this concern her?
Murong Jin said last time that he was going to Xiyuan, but these days passed day by day, and there was not much time left, but there was no news in the palace at all, and no one in the former harem mentioned that the prince went to the fiefdom, and it was not good that this time it was a chess game played by their father and son, what did she care?
She didn't want to write.
Each province has its own network of connections, and some even spread throughout Dayan, such as the royal family. Li Xiang doesn't really know what it looks like in their family, but it's just a little bit of a matter after all. With this, it is easier to do anything, and it is the easiest to check one person to check one thing.
Those people are in the hands of her father, just like she couldn't contact her father before, so she couldn't get news from other places, one is to protect herself and the other is not to let people take the opportunity to make trouble, which is very good.
She now wants to check the beauties sent in by the vassal king, the small vassal kingdoms and the officials, and apart from her father, she can't find a second person to help for a while.
But why did she check?
Zhang's mother collected all these things and handed them to her, but so far, no matter how Wang Fu or Zhou Shi, there has been no movement. It is impossible for Wang Fu to investigate slower than Zhang's mother, if it is really those people who will affect the verdict of this case, Guan Tang They will not be indifferent now, last time it was obvious that they were aware of the staff Qingke, maybe this time it will be the same, assassinating the prince, this is a capital crime, even if it is an ordinary brother, it is a big taboo, and once the crime is confirmed, it is a dead end for the immortals to go down to the Seven Kings Mansion.
Suddenly stopped writing, Li Xiang hung the pen back on the pen stand, sat down on the Taishi chair, and rubbed the letter paper, "Send someone to hand over a message to my father and ask him to check the ten people." ”
Chunyu was a little surprised when he saw that his master's letter was halfway through writing, and he rubbed the letter paper where a few words had been written.
The handwritten letter is added with private printing and fire paint, that is, the content of the letter is very important, and if you send a person to say it, it is general, and it is not too serious.
Chunyu only understood a little after a while, and silently copied the detailed information of the ten people that Zhang's mother had just sent, and went out to find Lidong to return home to pass it on to Xiangye.
"With the posture of the prince, the others will not be able to enter the mansion this month...... Lixia muttered, and instead concentrated on pinching his master's shoulders.
"What did you say?" Li Xiang got up and turned his head to look at Lixia.
Lixia looked dazed and repeated.
Li Xiang paralyzed back, thoughtfully, and patted the hand on his shoulder after a while, "You go and call Zhou Shi and Wang Fu, I have something to discuss with them." ”
