Emperor Jiangcai said what he said in front of the Longshu case, Yuan Xi had not fully understood it, and when he returned home, there was another matter between the Zheng family and Yuan Jie.

Things have to be thought about one by one, and problems have to be solved one by one. Let's talk about the Lan family first, the subordinate of the Wei Mansion who delivered the letter was in a hurry and couldn't say it clearly, but he just said that the Lan family sent people to surround the Wei Mansion and arrest Cheng Yong. At first, Yuan Xi was still wondering if Lan Yu and Cheng Yong planned to elope, but Lan Chengjie found out.

But she immediately dispelled this idea, because the eunuch Xu in the palace came late at night and summoned Yuanxi to enter the palace immediately to face the saint. I heard Eunuch Xu say that the fourth prince's request to marry Lanyu was rejected by the saint.

Yuan Xi was muttering in his heart, and Xu Wenliang immediately said: "The emperor also wants to marry Princess Chenxiang to Cheng Yong's son of Weifu." ”

Yuan Xi was stunned, although it sounded like two things, he vaguely felt that there were inextricable connections. Could it be that the emperor knows that Lan Yu likes Cheng Yong? wants to use Princess Chenxiang to occupy the position of Wei Chengyong's wife in advance, so as not to make the Lan family fight the idea of marrying the Wei family?

It's not impossible, the emperor has planted secret agents in the Wei Mansion, and he happened to be placed next to Cheng Yong. If Lu Shaoyong can monitor himself, he can monitor Cheng Yong. Cheng Yong's matter, as long as the emperor has the heart to ask, then there is no privacy at all.

After a while, Xu Wenliang said faintly: "I'm afraid that Miss Lan of the Lan family is not good, and the imperial doctor came back and said that the injury was serious. Even if I could wake up, I would have to collapse in bed. Alas, her father really did it, in the end it was her own daughter!"

Yuan Xi raised his eyebrows, Lan Yu was injured?

Not to mention that Lan Yu was fine in the past, Cheng Yong was reluctant to accept the princess's gift, and now that Lan Yu's life is in danger, Cheng Yong will definitely be even more reluctant to marry the princess.

However, a young man who spends his whole life on a paralyzed woman is definitely not what the emperor wants to see. Even if the emperor doesn't expect Wei Chengyong to take over the Wei family, he always hopes that he can make a difference!

Thinking of this, Yuan Xi couldn't help but shudder. Some things are really unreasonable, they are obviously a pair of children who are happy with each other, but one surnamed Wei and the other surnamed Lan, what is even more pitiful is that there is a thousand pounds of imperial power in the middle of the already thin feelings.

......

Ju Xiang served the old lady to bed and waited outside the flower hall. After Yuan Xi told Wei Dongshu and Aunt Yu what the emperor meant, he turned around and walked out of the flower hall. When Ju Xiang saw her come out, she hurriedly greeted her: "Third girl, the slave maid has something to say to the third girl." ”

Yuan Xi nodded and pulled her to sit under the corridor outside the flower hall: "You say." ”

Ju Xiang hesitated for a while before she spoke: "Miss Lan of Lan Mansion is dying, the third girl knows, the eldest young master and Miss Lan already appreciate each other. The relationship between them, although the eldest young master does not say it in his mouth and does not show it on his face, but his thoughts, presumably the third girl can understand. The slave maid just felt that at this time, the Lan family had come to the door to beg the eldest young master to see him for the last time, but we all hid it from the eldest young master, if Miss Lan really died, and the eldest young master knew about today's events, would he be able to bear it? ”

Yuan Xi was silent for a long time and asked, "Then, according to your meaning, what should I do about this?"

Ju Xiang thought for a while and said: "The life of the slave and maid is given by the third girl, and the slave and maid are naturally of the same heart as you, this is all the little insight of the slave and maid, don't be surprised if you say something wrong." The slave maid thinks that it is better to let the eldest young master go to the Lan family, in case Miss Lan really makes a mistake, the two of them will not leave regrets, right?"

Yuan Xi shook his head, Lan Yu and Cheng Yong must not meet, not now, and not in the future.

If the emperor didn't plan to give marriage, it would be fine, since the emperor had already said that the marriage would be given, Cheng Yong, the would-be concubine, would go to visit another woman in the middle of the night, wouldn't this slap Princess Chenxiang in the face? At that time, even if the emperor didn't care, the queen would be sad. Even if the queen is tolerant, can the old school not hold the handle?

"No, I can't. Yuan Xi resolutely refused, took Ju Xiang's hand, and said softly: "Ju Xiang, you are a sincere person, I will also tell you the truth, you have a number in your heart." Don't let the eldest brother have anything to do with Lan Yu anymore, to put it mildly, Lan Yu is already an abandoned son in the hands of the emperor, at this time, whoever touches it is equivalent to touching the emperor's mold. Our Wei Mansion is really walking on thin ice now, and we can't make a wrong step, otherwise, even if the emperor wants to protect it, those old-school nobles will not let us go easily. ”

"Is it so serious?" Ju Xiang looked at Yuan Xi in surprise: "Third Miss, the slave and maid don't know what to do now, these things in the court, the family slave and maid don't understand anything, sometimes the old lady suddenly asks me that, I am stupid, I don't know how to say it, for fear that I will say it wrong and make the old lady unhappy." ”

Yuan Xi lowered his eyelids slightly: "It's right if you don't understand, smart people don't like to talk very much." Sometimes, the smarter a person is, the more he doesn't understand anything. ”

Ju Xiang opened her mouth and nodded for a while: "Third Miss, I understand, thank you for teaching me." ”

"But don't forget what I told you to say. Won-hee said with a smile.

Ju Xiang bowed her head and said with a smile: "The slave knows that the old lady is still asleep at this time, and when the old lady gets up, the slave and the maid will find a suitable time to tell the old lady what the third girl said." ”

Yuan Xi Wenran patted her on the shoulder, this girl has become smarter and smarter since she followed the old lady, and she is stronger than Ling'er.

"Oh, by the way, I ask you. I heard my father say that Aunt Zheng and Yuan Jie have been arguing about going to live in a Buddhist temple for the past few months, what's going on?"

Ju Xiang hesitated for a while, and also shook her head: "This slave doesn't know much, it's just that Aunt Zheng has to make trouble so many times a month." The old lady was alarmed before, and later, even the old man didn't bother to look at them. Oh, it seems that after the third girl, after you got married, Aunt Zheng often said that she saw You's unjust soul or something, and begged the master several times to take the fourth girl to become a monk together. ”

When things go wrong, there must be demons. If they saw You's death and felt sad that the rabbit died and the fox died, it would be hypocritical. After all, he didn't ask about the family affairs of the Wei Mansion for a long time, and their monthly silver was distributed by Aunt Yu, and Aunt Yu was such a kind person, so she would not deduct them, let alone let them be oppressed. In this case, they are still in a hurry to leave, then there is only one possibility, there must be something they want outside. But what is this thing? Won-hee couldn't figure it out.

"If you want the slave to say, Aunt Zheng is probably jealous, jealous that the old man lives in Xianghanxuan every day. But it's no wonder that Aunt Yu is gentle and kind, and Aunt Zheng is crying every day, can the master be willing to go where she is?"

Even if Aunt Zheng is unbearable, she shouldn't be talked about by Ju Xiang, but then again, Ju Xiang dares to say these things in front of her, which shows that she completely trusts herself.

"And when are they leaving?" asked Won-hee.

This Ju Xiang couldn't tell clearly: "Aunt Zheng and Fourth Miss were going to leave every day before, so it must be as soon as possible, right?"

Yuan Xi pursed his lips, just that, maybe this Aunt Zheng was really afraid of herself and was determined to avoid herself. No matter what, his relationship with them is not as rigid as Wei Yuanjia. Whether they want to go or stay has nothing to do with them. As long as they don't do anything to be sorry for the Wei family, everyone should do a good job of face engineering.

"Miss, why don't you help you keep an eye on them?" asked Ju Xiang.

"No need, just go if you want. Won-hee stood up. It's dark, the sun rises in the east, and it's time to go back and rest.

Yuan Xi had just taken a few steps, and Ju Xiang suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her: "Miss, the slave suddenly remembered something, but I don't know if it's useful or not." ”

"What's the matter?" Won-hee turned around: "It's okay for you to say." ”

Ju Xiang hesitated for a while, lowered her head and asked tentatively: "Just a month ago, Aunt Zheng also made a big fuss like this, when the old lady asked the slave maid to send something to Aunt Zheng. The slave maid heard the four girls say that she was afraid that she would not be able to stay in this capital. ”

"Beijing?!" Yuan Xi suddenly felt that things were a little strange.

"Yes, that's how the slave and maid reacted at that time. But the fourth girl said it earnestly, but when she saw the slave and maid coming in, she didn't say anything. Third girl, tell me, if they can't stay in the Wei Mansion, why can't they even stay in the capital? Don't they live in the Buddhist temple and nunnery near the capital?"

Can't stay in the capital?Yuan Jie?Yuan Xi bit his lip, and for some reason, he suddenly had a convulsion in his heart. Yuan Jie and You have always been close before, and later they also dealt with Xiao Rongshen. Could it be that she learned something from Xiao Rongshen's mouth?

If this is the case, this news must be related to the safety of the capital. Could it be that Xiao Rongshen wants to rebel? Yuan Xi thought about it for a while, and then dispelled this idea, Xiao Rongshen is not Rong Zhan, where did he get the strength to raise the private guards? Since there are no soldiers, there is no rebellion.

Yuan Xi sighed, these things are so good that they are all crowded together, and they can't even find a clue. I wish I could have a quick knife to cut through this mess.

"Did you tell your father and grandmother about this?"

Ju Xiang shook her head: "The slave was just a little strange at the time, and then I forgot about it when I was busy, if it wasn't for you today, Miss, I wouldn't have remembered." Miss, did you find anything?"

Yuan Xi was silent for a while, feeling more and more confused, why are they in such a hurry to leave, is there really a big disaster in the capital?

"Miss, if not, let's not let them go. Ju Xiang said.

No, don't startle the snake. Yuan Xi pondered for a moment, it was better to let the sixth master send someone to follow secretly to see what direction they were going and whether there was anyone to answer on the way. Just follow the vine and find out the people behind the scenes.

Yuan Xi paid attention to it, and waved his hand: "Ju Xiang, don't let the third person know about the conversation between you and me just now, even the old lady can't say it, you know?"

"Miss, don't worry. Ju Xiang responded.

"Ju Xiang, grandmother is going to get up in a while, why don't we go to the small kitchen and cook a bowl of white swallow porridge for her old man?"
