When Xiao Ti returned to the bedroom, he found that he was sitting on the bed, wrapped in a thick quilt, yawning constantly, looking very sleepy but unwilling to sleep.

Xiao Ti asked, "Why didn't you sleep?" ”

Seeing that he was back, Yu Yuanyu immediately became energetic and hurriedly said.

"I'm waiting for you, has Xiao Meng found anything?"

Xiao Ti briefly repeated what Meng Xizhou had said before, and finally took out his purse.

Yu Yuanxuan couldn't wait to take the purse, opened it and saw that it contained a jade bracelet.

She took out the bracelet and looked at it carefully, her eyes widening.

"Isn't this my mother's bracelet?!"

Xiao Ti: "Are you sure?" ”

Yu Yuan pointed to the inside of the bracelet and said, "Look here, there is a pattern engraved here, and the jade bracelet you pulled out from the hands of the charred corpse earlier also has this pattern inside." ”

Then she turned the bracelet again, pointing to a tiny crack.

"When I was a kid, I was mischievous and accidentally knocked my mother's makeup down.

The jade bracelet contained in it fell to the ground, and it was at that time that the crack fell.

My mother gave me a beating for this, and I can't be mistaken. ”

The jade bracelet is a tribute, and there is a pair in the world.

One of the bracelets has been taken away by the Empress Dowager Deng, and the other bracelet has been buried underground with the Xie family as a burial companion.

But now, it appeared in Yu Yuan's hand.

Yu Yuan couldn't help asking.

"Who the hell is that Ripo? Why does she have my mother's bracelet? Could it be that someone dug up my mother's grave......"

Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still anymore, and she was about to jump out of bed when she lifted the quilt.

"I'm going back to Bashu, I'm going to see my mother's grave!"

Xiao Ti hurriedly hugged her: "It's so late, the city gates are already closed, you can't get out." ”

Yu Yuan was so anxious that he spoke incoherently: "My mother's grave is likely to be dug up, could it be a tomb robber?" Will they destroy the bodies of my mother and stepfather? I'm going to go back and see, I can't let them be exposed to the wilderness! ”

Xiao Ti hugged her tighter.

"Don't worry, when you come back from the palace tomorrow, I will accompany you to leave Yujing, and we will go to Bashu together.

If there are really grave robbers who dare to touch the graves of my father-in-law and mother-in-law, I will definitely catch them even at the ends of the earth. ”

Yu Yuanxuan gradually calmed down.

She clutched the jade bracelet tightly, her heart full of worry and uneasiness.

Normally, no matter how big things happen, it wouldn't affect her sleep, but tonight she lost sleep.

As long as she closed her eyes, it was the scene of the remains of Xie and Feng Lianghan being dug up and thrown into the wild by tomb thieves.

Back then, she failed to protect Xie and Feng Lianghan, which was already the biggest regret in her life.

If she can't even protect the remains of Xie and Feng Lianghan, then what face does she have to live?!

Xiao Ti felt the uneasiness in her heart.

He didn't sleep either, just stayed with her all night.

At dawn the next day, Xiao Ti and Yu Yuanxuan changed into ceremonial clothes and rode into the palace in a carriage.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and according to the custom, all the princes and nobles, as well as the officials and their wives above the fourth rank in Beijing, must enter the palace to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor, the queen mother, and the queen.

Yu Yuanyu was in a low mood, but on this occasion, she still had to force a smile.

When Xiao Ti saw it, he couldn't help but feel distressed.

He quietly held his curly hand and silently comforted him by the cover of his wide sleeves.

Yu Yuan prayed silently in her heart, hoping that time would pass sooner and sooner......

Empress Wen took a group of female dependents to Biquan Palace to pay New Year's greetings to Empress Dowager Deng.

The ladies tried their best to make the Empress Dowager Deng happy, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Among them, only Yu Yuanxuan remained quiet the whole time.

In the past, when she encountered such occasions, she could still eat some refreshments to relieve her boredom, but today she didn't even have the heart to eat and drink, she just wanted to end it quickly and go home quickly.

Mrs. Yang suddenly called her name at this time.

"I heard that the princess of Langjun opened a drama garden, it seems to be called Chery Garden? The drama sung there is good, the princess of Langjun is so talented, and today is such a good day, why not sing a song between the queen mother and the queen mother on the scene to help the fun? ”

Her words immediately shifted the attention of everyone present to Yu Yuanxuan.

Yu Yuan replied without thinking about it.

"I can't sing."

Mrs. Yang pursed her lips and smiled: "Princess Langjun, don't be modest, just sing a few sentences, don't you even want to give this face to the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother?"

Then she looked at the other ladies and asked as if asking.

"You say yes?"

Those ladies didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and they nodded in agreement.

"yes, yes."

Yu Yuanxuan was already in a bad mood, and when Mrs. Yang provoked her like this, her tone of voice was naturally not very good.

"According to Mrs. Yang's logic, the person who opens the opera garden must be able to sing.

I remember that there was a teahouse in the property under Mrs. Yang's name, and there should be storytellers and singers in the teahouse.

Would you like Mrs. Yang to tell us a story or a little song on the spot? ”

Mrs. Yang's face was red and white when she said this, and she wanted to refute but couldn't speak, so she was as angry as a big hen with fried hair.

She turned her head to look at Empress Dowager Deng and Empress Wen, and complained angrily.

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, take a look.

The courtiers just want the princess of Langjun to sing a play to cheer you up.

She didn't want to give the two mothers this face, so she didn't care, but she still used words to squeeze the courtiers!

What kind of serious person can the woman who sings a little song be?

The courtiers are the three rank of the lady who was given the title by the emperor, why did she humiliate the courtiers so much?! ”

As she spoke, she covered her eyes with a silk handkerchief and sobbed.

Empress Dowager Deng has always been gentle, and today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so quarreling is not a good sign.

She was about to comfort Mrs. Yang and persuade Mrs. Yang to stop crying.

I saw Yu Xuan get up and take two steps forward, and then knelt straight down.

Yu Xuan: "Everything is the fault of the courtiers, it is the courtiers' nonsense that hurts Mrs. Yang's dignity, so the courtiers go home and think about it." ”

After saying that, she got up and turned around and left, which can be said to be quite fast.

By the time Empress Dowager Deng reacted, Yu Yuanxuan had already walked to the door.

Empress Dowager Deng hurriedly stopped her.

"Wait a minute!"

Yu Xuanxuan sighed secretly, he was still too slow.

She had to retract her foot and turn to look at Empress Dowager Deng.

"What else does the Queen Mother command?"

Empress Dowager Deng: "You can't be blamed for this matter, Mrs. Yang is also responsible, if she hadn't taken the initiative to provoke you, you wouldn't have said something like that." ”

Empress Wen echoed: "What the Queen Mother said is very true. ”

Mrs. Yang: "......"

How did it become her responsibility?

Empress Dowager Deng said to Mrs. Yang: "You apologize to you, and this matter is over." ”

Yu Yuan waved her hand and said no, she was willing to take all the responsibilities alone, so let her go back and think about it behind closed doors!

Empress Dowager Deng was very pleased.

"I've really grown up, and I'm getting more and more knowledgeable."

Yu Yuan: "......"

Tired, really!

Please, let me go, I want to go home!
