Chapter 266: Instead
Sakura was stunned for a moment when she saw Yinqi and Jiubeile, and hurriedly bowed, Jiubeile smiled when she saw this, and thought to herself, this fifth sister-in-law was really a little anxious, and she knew that he was coming, so she specially asked a maid to invite him.
However, Yinqi was not surprised to see Ying'er, but raised his hand to let Ying'er get up, and then asked Ying'er to go back to Xinuan Pavilion first, and he and Jiubeile would arrive later.
When the three of them arrived at the Xinuan Pavilion, Wanyue had already ordered someone to prepare the tea for Yinqi and Jiubeile, and after Jiubeile briefly said a few polite words to Wanyue, he was ready to go straight to today's topic.
"Fifth sister-in-law, the matter you asked me to investigate before has been clarified." Nine Baylor sat down unceremoniously and said coldly.
As soon as he said this, Yinqi set his eyes on Wanyue, and Wanyue didn't look back at him, but just raised his eyes to look at Jiubeiler, and asked in a deep voice: "Ninth brother, you can tell the result directly." ”
"Fifth sister-in-law, the jade bracelet you mentioned was found in a jewelry shop on the outskirts of the city, and the people who inquired down followed the vine and found that it was an old lady who sold the jade bracelet to the jewelry shop.
These words made Yinqi a little confused, and as soon as Jiubeile finished speaking, he couldn't help but ask.
"What bracelet? Who is the old lady? ”
Jiubeile raised his hand, smiled at Wanyue, got up and handed the jade bracelet to Ying'er, and Ying'er handed it to Wanyue, but after all, this matter is the fifth brother's own business, since Jiubeile helped find out the results, it is inconvenient to interfere in other matters, so it is better for the fifth brother's question to be answered by herself.
Wanyue saw that Jiubeile didn't reply to Yinqi's words, and saw that he smiled at herself just now, so she understood the meaning, turned her head to Yinqi, picked up the jade bracelet and looked at it, and replied with a serious face.
"I gave Zhang Gege a jade bracelet in good condition before, and I heard from the people in Zhuangzi that the bracelet disappeared after Zhang Gege's death, so I specially asked the ninth brother to help find the whereabouts of the jade bracelet. Now that I think about it, it should be the grandmother on Zhuangzi who stole Zhang Gege's bracelet, and as for the person who killed Zhang Gege, it should also be the grandmother who stole the bracelet. ”
However, when Yinqi heard this, he had some doubts in his mind.
"How can you be sure that this bracelet is the one for Zhang Gege?" Yinqi squinted at the jade bracelet, although the condition looked good, it seemed that he gave it to Yue'er before, but when he went to the gold jewelry store to buy it, there seemed to be three bracelets of the same style.
is not the only thing in the world, which inevitably makes Yinqi wonder.
Wanyue saw that this incident aroused Yinqi's curiosity, and now is also the best time to solve Yinqi's misunderstanding of her, Wanyue raised her finger and pointed to the inner circle of the bracelet, and replied very plainly: "Lord, look, there are small cracks in the inner circle of this bracelet." ”
Yinqi hurriedly lowered his head to look at the bracelet carefully, and after looking at it twice, he didn't find a crack, so he simply picked up the bracelet and looked at it carefully, and really found a very small crack in the inner ring.
"This bracelet was given to me by the prince at the beginning, Sifeng accidentally dropped this bracelet when she was playing in my room, and made such a little crack, I thought about giving it to Zhang Gege, but I didn't expect her to lose her life because of this bracelet." Wanyue saw that Yinqi had already seen the crack in the inner ring of the bracelet, so she simply continued.
Yinqi felt that his Fujin's words were not unreasonable, the subordinates in Zhuangzi were all untrained by him, so naturally they could not be compared with the subordinates in the house, and it was reasonable to have one or two slaves and maids who were greedy for money.
But he was a little puzzled about who it was, so he put down the bracelet and turned his head to look at his ninth brother, his face full of suspicion.
"Ninth brother, which old lady sold this bracelet to the jewelry shop?"
I really don't know which old lady Jiubeile is, he just let his subordinates follow secretly, just in case, it is also convenient for the fifth brother's people to catch that grandmother smoothly.
"I really don't know this, I just let the people follow, if the fifth brother wants someone to arrest her, I will order the people below to take you there." Nine Baylor said truthfully.
Yinqi waved his hand.
"This matter is not in a hurry, since the ninth brother has already sent someone to keep an eye on it, then when the ninth brother has dinner in our mansion, I will send two more guards to find your people."
Wanyue also echoed: "Yes, ninth brother, you can help investigate this matter, so let's eat in our house." ”
Seeing that his brother and sister-in-law were so 'forced' to keep him, Jiubeile didn't need to be polite, and nodded in agreement.
He also heard that there was a good new troupe in the Fifth Brother's Mansion, and he happened to have a good time.
"I heard that there is a good new troupe in the Fifth Brother's Mansion?"
When Yinqi heard this, he smiled proudly and raised his hand to point at Jiubeile.
"The ninth brother is really blessed, there are indeed a few singers in the house, if the ninth brother wants to listen, I will let Yan Qimin lead you over. I'll say a few words to your fifth sister-in-law first, and I'll come back to you later. ”
Jiubeile was naturally willing, and immediately nodded in response: "Okay." ”
In the next moment, Yinqi yelled at Steward Yan at the door: "Steward Yan, take Jiubeile to the attic of the West Courtyard, and let those singers sing a few plays for Jiubeile." ”
Steward Yan immediately replied: "Yes, Jiubeile, you follow the minion, and the minion will take you over." ”
Before Jiubeile stepped out of the Xinuan Pavilion's house, Wanyue remembered that Hongsheng and Zhang Gege had met before, and she didn't want something unforeseen to happen, so she simply proposed to Yinqi.
"Lord, now with Hong'an, there are five children in the concubine's house, even if there are grandmothers to take care of, the concubine also feels a little lacking in skills, can you let those Gege in the backyard help raise one or two children, so that the concubine will have more energy to manage the backyard. If they can help with raising the children, they can also have something to do. ”
These words made Yinqi ponder for a while, except for Tong Jia's family, he has not been pampered by the others, and a few of them were sent to him by the Queen Mother's grandmother, and he felt a little indebted to those women, Yue'er's proposal was a good idea.
Let the group of Gege in the backyard have something to do, and he can also be less troubled, but the matter of which children to hand over to that group of Gege made Yinqi hesitate, except for Hongsheng and Junhua, the other three children in the Xinuan Pavilion were all born to her, and the three of them may not be willing to give up.
Yinqi thought about it for a while, and ordered straightforwardly: "Then simply hand over the two children of Hongsheng and Junhua to them to raise." ”
These words were in Wanyue's heart, although she was happy in her heart, but she still had to pretend to be a little embarrassed, so she replied with some surprise: "I don't know if Hongsheng and Junhua are happy, this matter still depends on the thoughts of the two children." ”
