After Zixuan came back from the West Chamber, she kept thinking back to the time when she was four years old, when her mother was pregnant, but because she was too young, she only remembered some inconsequential fragments.

What Mrs. Liu said was not unbelievable, with the Wang family's city government and vanity, how could she tell her ambition to an old mother who was close to her family.

It seems that I have to find time to go to my uncle's mansion and ask Steward Sun and Aunt Du, who are imprisoned in the firewood room, they are Wang's henchmen, and they may know some clues.

After making up her mind, Zixuan sat upright, entered the space of her thoughts, turned over the Heart Sutra, and began to practice.

This is really a good method, since she started practicing, Zixuan feels light and full of energy, and now that she enters the space, even if she stays in it overnight, she will not feel very tired, and she can freely access and store things.

Early the next morning, Zixuan went to the prince's dedication room early.

This is the first time she has come to find the prince after she moved to Chu Anyuan, and it was so early that Xiang Jiu was very surprised to see Zixuan, and opened her mouth in surprise, and even forgot to report it.

When Zixuan entered the door, Wang Zixian happened to be changing clothes, and his shirt was not yet dressed, and his broad back could be clearly seen, and she was stunned for a moment.

A few days before the wedding, although she was with him every night, she never saw him undress, whether it was before going to bed late or after waking up early.

Wang Zixian didn't turn around, thinking it was Xiang Jiu, and scolded angrily in displeasure: "Get out!" ”

Only then did Zixuan realize that she was out of shape, and immediately covered her eyes and said in a muffled voice: "Lord Wang, it's me." ”

Hearing this, the prince made a meal, quickly put on his shirt, drove the wheelchair, looked at her, cleared his throat and said, "Come so early!" ”

Zixuan still covered her eyes and said, "Well, Xiang Jiu said that you get up early every day, so I came earlier on purpose." ”

The prince put on his robe and said indifferently: "Don't cover it." ”

Zixuan put down her hand and smiled at him.

Wang Zixian's cold face softened a little, pointed to the table and said, "You got the things you asked for last night, take them." ”

Zixuan walked over and picked up the note and looked through it, and sure enough, it was the same, and smiled knowingly: "Thank you." ”

At the moment before noon, Wang came to the door and sent three plates of gold ingots, a total of five hundred taels.

Zixuan roughly took down the gold ingots, and let Red Sleeves and Alan inspect them one by one before putting them in the library.

Wang's eyes were glued to the three plates of gold ingots, and he said painfully: "Give me Mama Liu's confession and IOU!" ”

Zixuan took it out from her cuffs and gave it to her, saying, "Take it!" ”

Wang took the note, confirmed that it was safe, glanced at Zixuan meaningfully, looked at it with contempt, and turned around to leave.

Zixuan's heart sank, and there was a faint sense of unease.

Red Sleeves thought that Zixuan was displeased, so he shouted to the Wang family: "How can you leave without saluting the princess, there is still a rude law!" ”

The mother-in-law beside the Wang family broke her mouth and said: "What are you, you dare to shout here, she is the princess, and my wife is still the princess's stepmother!" ”

"And what are you?" Red Sleeves unceremoniously stepped forward and slapped her, and the "snap" sound was very crisp.

The mother-in-law beside Wang covered her face in pain and wanted to fight back, but was blocked by the red arm.

Wang frowned unhappily, looked at Zixuan with gloomy eyes, and said: "The palace is becoming more and more ruled, and a subordinate dares to ride on the master's head and beat and scold wantonly." ”

Zixuan said: "The dog around my stepmother is also getting better and better, and he barks when he sees people." ”

Wang stared at Zixuan with both eyes, but he didn't intend to argue, but said, "Mama You, don't pay attention to her, let's go!" ”

Only then did Mama You shake off her red-sleeved hand, glared fiercely, and followed behind Wang.

Zixuan felt more and more that something was wrong, the Wang family was not tolerant of pot-bellied people, and today he took out five hundred taels of gold for nothing, so he should vent his grievances before leaving.

"Red Sleeves!" Zixuan frowned and said, "Go and bring all the five hundred taels of gold, I want to take a closer look." ”

Seeing that she was so cautious, Red Sleeves couldn't help but become serious, and immediately went to the warehouse to get it.

Zixuan picked up a heavy gold ingot, looked at it carefully, and there didn't seem to be anything wrong.

Red Sleeves didn't know what she was looking at, and pointed to the pattern carved in the middle of the ingot: "This little coin is really beautiful." ”

Zixuan also nodded, looked up and down at these patterns, and suddenly saw a small character engraved in an inconspicuous nest: Xia.

Summer?

Could it be summer?

She was shocked in her heart, and picked up other gold ingots to compare, and the same position, without exception, had this word.

Zixuan hurriedly said: "Red sleeves, immediately bring someone to stop the Wang family, and I will go to find the prince." ”

With that, she took a gold ingot, ran straight out of the courtyard, and went to the prince's study, where he read almost all after returning from the court.

Wang Zixian was practicing calligraphy, and seeing her in such a hurry, he said quietly: "What happened?" ”

Zixuan ran out of breath, and said breathlessly: "Lord Wang, I want to ask you something, has there been anything wrong with Xia Houfu recently?" Or what finances have you lost? ”

Wang Zixian said without thinking: "In the case of Xia Houqian Daily, the family was stolen by thieves and lost tens of thousands of taels of silver. ”

"Recently, Beijing has not been peaceful, and this matter has been in an uproar, because not only his family has been stolen, but several noble families have also been stolen."

Zixuan hurriedly said: "Not good! The gold sent by the Wang family today is afraid that it is the Xiahou Mansion! ”

After that, she took out the gold ingot and pointed it out to him: "Look, Lord Wang, there is a small 'Xia' character engraved here, the location is extremely small and hidden, if you are not a careful person, you will never be able to see it." ”

Wang Zixian took the gold ingots and looked at them, frowned and said, "What about the Wang family?" ”

"Not long after leaving, I asked Redsleeves to intercept her!" Zixuan said worriedly: "No, I'll go out and have a look now." ”

"Wait!" Wang Zixian stopped her and said, "It's too late! ”

At this time, the voice of the government came from outside the hall, and then someone shouted in a rough voice: "The government is handling the case, open the door quickly!" ”

Red Sleeves hurriedly ran over and said, "Lord Wang, the princess is not good!" The Wang family has already left the house, and Lord Fucha of the Yamen is outside with officers and soldiers, saying that he will search! ”
