Chapter 126: Visiting the Mansion of Yan

As soon as he approached the door, Situ Xi was stopped by the guard in front of the door.

"Uncle, when you enter the house, you have to show them the token of your grandfather." Wei Lan's voice sounded on one side, and Situ Xi turned his head to look, he was standing in the shade of a tree on the side, he should have been waiting for him here for a while.

Situ Xi nodded and greeted him, then took out Huai Minggong's token from his bosom and handed it to the guard on his left.

After the guard took it, he took the token in his hand and looked at it carefully, and then flicked a mechanism from under the token, and actually pulled out a piece of iron from its underside, and after reading it, he inserted it back in.

This token actually has such a mechanism, Situ Xi, as the owner of this token, he doesn't even know it, and the iron piece should be an anti-counterfeiting mark.

"My lord, I don't know what you are doing here, you need to register here, please understand."

"I only went to see Miss Yanjia with my wife, nothing else, and I will leave after a few words of conversation with her, and I won't stay for long."

"My name is Wei Lan, and I am also from the Huaiming Mansion, I want to come here to learn about the situation of the Yan family, this is the grandfather's edict, please take a look." Wei Lan also took out a fold, which was stamped with the seal of the Duke of Huai Ming.

"Lord Xie understands, since this is the case, he will lead the three of them forward."

The guards knew the intention of Situ Xi and the others, and asked one of them to write them down on a piece of paper, and then led the way for Situ Xi and his wife and Wei Lan in front, while Situ Xi's guards were left outside the door.

After entering the Yan Mansion, Situ Xi and Zhong Lishu discovered the situation in the front yard of the Yan Mansion, which can only be described as a mess.

The tables and chairs in the courtyard were crooked, the ground was full of scattered porcelain and some cheap cloth, the ground was extremely uneven, and there were even some deep pits in the ground, apparently excavated.

The surrounding greenery has also been cut down to varying degrees, several small trees have fallen to the ground, and the grass on both sides has also been trampled, and some broken branches have piled up on them.

The only thing that seems to be in good shape is the pond in the front yard, with some tender green lotus leaves, and a few fish swimming under the lotus flowers.

It's April, but it's not far from May, and the pond of early summer is trying to add some life to the depressed foreyard.

Glancing at Zhong Lisu, seeing her with a worried look in her eyes, the two of them sped up their pace.

After walking a few paths, the guard led the three of them to a side courtyard, and then stopped in front of a house in the courtyard.

"My lord, Miss Yan is in this house, this Lord Wei, let the little one take you around this Yan Mansion."

"Uncle, then you guys are busy first, I'll go walk around."

With that, the guard took his leave and led Wei Lan elsewhere.

The situation in this partial courtyard is very similar to that in the front yard, and it is also chaotic.

Along the way, Situ Xi found that there were traces of being searched almost everywhere in the Yan Mansion, and there was no figure on the road, and the remaining people in the Mansion should be staying in their own rooms at the moment, and they should not be in the mood to hang around the Mansion now.

"Lady." Situ Xi pushed Zhong Lixuan's shoulder and let her go to the door, let her knock on this door, he and Yan Yue are not so familiar after all.

Zhong Li nodded and hesitated to Yan Yue's door, she raised her hand and put it on the wooden door, knocking it slowly, opening her mouth but not knowing what to say.

Situ Xi listened from the sidelines, and although there was no response from inside the room, he heard a sound of rustling, and after a while, he heard the sound of slowly approaching footsteps.

"Squeak-"

The door was pulled open from the inside, and a woman in a thin silk shawl poked her head out, she was extremely thin, haggard, her eyebrows and eyes were dull, and the whole person was extremely depressed.

"I'm bothering Mama to deliver food again......"

Yan Yue half-bowed her head when she opened the door, and did not look at the person who came, listening to her words, she should have regarded the two of them as the people who delivered food for her.

"Sister Yan......" Zhong Lixuan called her out in distress.

Hearing this familiar voice, Yan Yue was suddenly stunned, her expression was a little dazed, and when she looked up, she found that the person who came turned out to be Zhong Lixuan and her father-in-law.

"Scream?! Why are you here, and His Royal Highness the Nine Kings...... Ah, please wait, no one in my courtyard will come except for my grandmother on weekdays, Yan Yue is disheveled and rude, please wait a minute......"

Yan Yue was first very surprised by Zhong Lishu's visit, but when she looked up at Situ Xi again, she immediately hid in the room in a panic and closed the door at a very fast speed.

Looking at the closed door in front of him, Situ Xi was stunned, and then thought of what was wrong.

The short undergarment that Fang Cai Yanyue was wearing should be her nightdress, and it didn't cover her legs, Situ Xifang didn't feel anything strange, it was just a knee-length short skirt, but now that he thought about it carefully, he suddenly remembered that it was ancient times, and most of the women in Chu were extremely conservative.

Standing at Yan Yue's door with Zhong Li for a few more minutes, Yan Yue opened the door for the two of them again, she looked more energetic than just now, and her face was smeared with a little rouge.

Situ Xi and Zhong Lixuan followed her into this boudoir, although the courtyard outside was extremely chaotic, but Yan Yue's room was extremely neat.

When Situ Xi entered the door, he saw some scraps of porcelain vases at her door, and at this moment, a circle of circular traces could be clearly seen on the top of her dresser, presumably a porcelain vase had been placed on it before.

Glancing at the rest of the room, there were a few places that seemed very empty, a little abrupt.

It seems that she has not escaped rummaging and searching in this room, but she has since cleaned up herself.

Having said that, in this case, he can calm down and tidy up the room, Yan Yue's psychological quality is not bad.
