Chapter 5 The crown is gone
The two of them came to the front hall one after the other, and by this time the banquet had ended.
The drinks and dishes at the banquet were removed and replaced with delicate dim sum and sweet fruit tea.
Jiang Wu raised her foot and was about to go in, when she was suddenly hit by a goose-yellow figure and took a few steps back.
Versace? Where is she going in such a hurry?
Seeing that she ran away all of a sudden, Jiang Wu narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.
"Miss Jiang?" Mo Zixuan took a few steps forward and found that there was no movement behind him.
When he turned around, he saw Jiang Wu standing outside the hall, squinting as if she was looking at something.
Jiang Wu came back to her senses, nodded at him, and returned to her seat.
Seeing the two of them coming in one after the other, everyone had to look at them quietly and discuss in a low voice.
The smile on the corner of Mrs. Xinmo's lips had already become stiff, and she raised her hand to take a sip of tea, lowering her eyes to hide her emotions.
She originally said that she was sick and couldn't come, but she also deliberately gave Mo Zixuan a dismissal.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for someone to report to her, saying that he was very close to General Jiang's daughter, and she couldn't bear to come over to take a look.
First, it is the name of a loving mother who participates in the ceremony when she is sick.
Second, it is naturally for verification.
Unexpectedly, she had only been here for a long time, and it had already been confirmed.
If Mo Zixuan's kid has the support of the General's Mansion, then how will her Zihan inherit the Hou Mansion?
"Zixuan is here, come and sit." Mo Hou Ye glanced at him and Jiang Wu, laughed, obviously in a very good mood.
Mo Zixuan sat down at the head of Mrs. Mo and glanced at her lightly.
"If my mother is really sick, she doesn't have to force herself to come to the ceremony, her body is the most important thing."
How did he not know Madame Mo's careful thoughts? I just don't care.
"What did you say? After all, it's a son and a crown, and I, as a mother, can't help but say anything. ”
The corners of Mrs. Mo's lips twitched slightly, and she felt an awkward feeling in her heart.
"Hahaha, you still have a heart."
Mo Hou Ye was relieved for a while, "If Madame is really unwell, don't hold on." ”
"In this way, Zixuan is grateful to his mother for this kindness."
Mrs. Mo nodded in response, and her eyes fell on Jiang Wu.
is a slim beauty, speaking of which, Zihan and this Miss Jiang are the same age.
She lowered her eyes in contemplation.
And at this time, Mrs. Jiang was asking where Jiang Wu went.
She fooled her past with a few words, and at this time, Fan Sisi, who had just run out, also returned.
Jiang Wu looked at her a few more times, and the more she looked at her, the more strange it became.
Why is she so excited?
Without waiting for Jiang Wu to think more, a subordinate ran in in a hurry, kneeling on the ground and not daring to raise his head.
"What's wrong?" Mo Hou Ye suddenly asked, and his subordinates were so frightened that they trembled.
"Go back, go back to the Hou Ye, the crown of the prince is gone."
The crown is missing?
Mo Hou Ye slapped his palm on the table.
"Didn't you say you guys should look at it?" He was furious, took a few steps down from his seat, and gave the man a heavy kick.
The servant spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground, curled up, almost unconscious in pain.
"Master Hou, forgiveness, forgiveness ...... sins"
In the silence, Mo Hou Ye also calmed down.
Turning his head and seeing Mo Zixuan's indifferent appearance, he immediately became angry again.
If this kind of thing happens at this time, it is undoubtedly a slap in the face!
This rebel, if it weren't for the fact that he had a little relationship with the general's wife, he could take the opportunity to win over the general's mansion, so he wouldn't bother to pay attention to him.
"Master Hou, the little girl has a proposal." Fan Sisi walked out of the banquet and bowed to him.
"Since the crown of the prince disappeared in the Hou Mansion, and the guests in the mansion have not left, this crown is probably still somewhere in the Hou Mansion."
"Send someone to look for it now, maybe you can find it."
Mo Hou Ye glanced at her nonchalantly, and then responded: "Well, come here, search the Hou Mansion immediately, and you can't let go of every corner." ”
"The little girl is willing to contribute to the prince and search together." Versace volunteered.
Marquis Mo casually said a few polite words, and he didn't have the heart to stay, so he immediately left with Mrs. Mo.
He didn't look at Mo Zixuan again, leaving him alone to deal with the rest of the mess.
The guests looked at each other, and seeing that Fan Sisi had gone out, they also offered to help find them one by one.
"There is no need to trouble you, but such a thing happened when everyone came to attend the ceremony today, it was Zixuan's inconsiderate consideration, and Zixuan is here to make amends to you."
Seeing that Mo Zixuan was so polite, the officials naturally comforted him and sat on the table and waited.
Jiang Wu's eyes narrowed slightly at the moment.
The smile on Mrs. Fan's lips was well concealed, but it did not escape her eyes.
She recalled the way Fan Sisi had left in a hurry......
The direction she came from was not the antechamber at all, so what was she going to do at that time?
Contacting Fan Sisi's series of abnormal actions, she already has the answer in her heart.
Jiang Wu motioned for Xiaocao to come over, and after whispering a few words, Xiaocao nodded and left quietly.
Mrs. Jiang was also worried, and when she saw Jiang Wuru's behavior, she only felt strange and didn't ask more.
The atmosphere has frozen slightly, and it is no longer as lively as before.
Mo Zixuan is still that indifferent, if it weren't for the mother's hard work in this Houfu.
Don't say that this is a crown ceremony, he doesn't want to come back at all.
The son of the world is like a chicken rib to him now.
I don't know how long it took, the Hou Mansion guards and Fan Sisi came back.
Everyone looked at them in unison, but found that their faces were not very good-looking.
"Hui Shizi, my subordinates have carefully searched all the places in the Hou Mansion, and they have not found the crown." The leading guard did not dare to look up at him.
Fan Sisi's face was already pale.
She clearly hid the crown in that place, and double-checked it several times before leaving.
She deliberately looked for a few laps before passing, just to show that she was not so deliberate.
But when she went over, she found that the crown was gone!
When Mrs. Fan heard this, she looked at her daughter's expression again, and her heart sank.
If it's just gone, that's fine, but if it's known that they made it, then they're afraid they won't be able to eat any good fruit.
At this time, Xiaocao also came back, looked at Jiang Wu's eyes brightened, whispered a few words to her and retreated behind her.
The faces of the guests were heavy, and without the crown, it would not be possible to make a crown ceremony, and the meaning of doing it would be different after that.
A string of crisp silver bells of laughter broke the atmosphere that had fallen to freezing.
Everyone looked and saw Jiang Wu smiling happily.
"Sister-in-law?" Mrs. Jiang frowned and patted her gently.
Jiang Wu cast her a reassuring look, stood up in the puzzled gaze of everyone, and looked at Mo Zixuan.
"I didn't care about seeing someone sneaky, but the more I thought about it, the more strange I felt, sure enough."
"Son, my maidservant has retrieved your crown, and it is now in the room where the crown was originally placed."
