Chapter 524 A Mysterious Woman Appears at Xianzhuang
“There are some people I didn’t see, but that doesn’t mean I don’t know.” Aunt Winter said grimly, in the beginning, although she was not the Marquis’s aunt yet, she still vaguely knew some of them, and this was something that Li certainly also knew.
“But the marquis this will not let us go out … our yard are not allowed to go out, the last time or the dowager lady sent someone to ask, the jewelry box only brought out, this will want to go out of the house, I am afraid that even more can not.” Sister Li said with difficulty.
The marquis is really angry this time, so this time the grounding, not just Aunt Dong a person, but first most of the people in this yard first removed before the grounding, the ban is the whole yard people.
Now in Aunt Dong’s courtyard, there are only Jin Zhu and Sister Li left, plus two rough-hewn grannies, and the rest are even more uninvolved.
Aunt Winter’s daily meals were still delivered by the kitchen.
“Idea to notify Third Miss to come and see me.” Aunt Dong’s face condensed and said.
“After Third Miss came that day, she never came back again, and I’m afraid the Marquis won’t let Third Miss come over there either!” Sister Li frowned and said, on the day of Aunt Dong’s accident, Third Miss rushed out in tears, saying that she wanted to go to the Marquis to talk about it, but she didn’t come back afterward, and I heard that she was reprimanded by the Marquis before being driven back to her own courtyard.
According to Sister Li’s opinion, the three misses before the matter is not over, originally in the period of confinement, this is again because of the winter aunt’s matter by the marquis reprimand is also normal, think of the three misses should not be convenient to come over, otherwise it is impossible to come to the present only came so a trip.
“Third Miss is not me, the Marquis can’t really do anything to her even if he is ruthless, give some silver to the granny who delivers food to the kitchen and ask her to go to Third Miss to say something.”
No matter how, Jiao’er was once the marquis’s favorite daughter, and now Jiao’er and the fourth prince of the matter is also considered to be the name of the book, although not the royal consort, but how can this kind of thing can be said to be clear, to the powerful backing of the Huayang Marquis House, Jiao’er in the future is not without opportunity to become a royal consort.
The marquis will only be angry at the petite child to become a concubine, but now things have passed so many days, and also has become a final decision, he must have accepted this reality, not necessarily will not forgive the petite child, for the petite child occasionally do not respect his will, to sneak to see their own, will certainly also turn a blind eye, close a blind eye.
No matter what, she was still carrying the Marquis’ heir in her belly, and on that point, it was impossible for the Marquis to really do anything to her.
Reaching out and touching her stomach, Aunt Dong’s face flashed a trace of grim hatred and venom, this time she is considered to have used that little bitch’s trick, but she is not without a way back, the heir, for the Marquis the heir will not be unimportant, or for every man, the heir is the most important.
Aunt Winter felt that with this, she possessed the opportunity to rise again.
At lunchtime, the granny sent by the kitchen to deliver food to Aunt Dong received a heavy purse and joyfully headed towards Wei Yuejiao’s Feng Yi courtyard.
The banquet for Wei Yue-mai to be crowned as the Jingde County Princess was scheduled for the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Although not yet to the day, Hua Yang Marquis House own wind and fire to do up, posting also sprinkled out, so glorious a thing, the dowager lady of course, do not spare no effort to publicize, widely posted, almost slightly related to the nobles of the world are sent out, a time the people in the capital are talking about this Wei six miss.
Speaking of this Miss Wei six from the beginning of no talent and no appearance into the present not only talent and appearance, and the fame of the capital even the Queen Mother has also ordered to be named Jingde County Princess, which is only a few months in between and himself.
The capital’s largest gold jewelry store “Xianzhuang” in a private room, came a mysterious guest, and Xianzhuang that seems to be the son of the world’s chubby shopkeeper to talk.
The visitor was a woman, it could be seen that the clothing was very plain, from the outside only saw gray dress, just like the most unusual woman in the street in general, but on her head was wearing a drapery hat, long gauze scarf hanging down, almost hanging to her feet, the whole of her person was hidden inside the drapery hat.
It was completely impossible to tell what she looked like from the outside, only the shape was vaguely visible, and the only thing that could be heard was the voice, which was a woman.
The woman stood in front of the window, the curtains slightly raised so that she could see a corner of the sky beyond.
This is the third floor of a private room, but also in the most remote corner of the place, Xian Zhuang’s fellows know, this room is the shopkeeper’s deliberately left, even if the outside of the room is full of guests, this room is not allowed to go out, after all, who does not know when the shopkeeper’s friends will come.
“Has the Marquis come to collect the bill yet?” The woman asked softly, looking out the window.
The voice is soft and gentle, the speed of speech is not fast, there is a kind of gentle and elegant like jade feeling, even if it is exposed to the outside of the gray gown dress can not hide the fact that she has been well educated.
“The marquis has not come, my subordinate sent someone to invite, but he said he was very busy recently.” The fat shopkeeper sighed and respectfully said the same “Could it be that the marquis is not willing to come and collect the bill!”
“Go and ask again, always deliver all the accounts before the year, so that we can start again after the year.” The woman said faintly, but she could hear that there was a bit of sadness in her voice.
“But … the marquis also said before, recently the marquis of huayang happened too many things, so that he can’t get out of it for a while, and finally the sixth young lady was promoted to be the county princess, and I heard that the dowager lady of the marquis of huayang is going to make a big fuss about it again, and the marquis is afraid that this will be really busy and can’t get out of it. ”
The fat shopkeeper was quite knowledgeable about the affairs of the Marquis of Huayang, and also knew that Wei Literature had indeed been distracted recently.
“What’s the big deal? What can be organized, the position of the county princess was originally the sixth miss, the Marquis of Huayang’s dowager wife will specialize in things, the marquis to support the ball, so many years the marquis guarded them this title, in fact, is really tired, if not the marquis, their house and who can hold up this brand.”
The woman said coldly, her words thick with displeasure.
“That’s true, but after all, this is now a big happy event for the Marquis of Huayang, and the Marquis there is also very happy.” The fat shopkeeper smiled helplessly at the woman’s sudden temper.
“And what’s wrong with Aunt Winter? Didn’t she say she was pregnant with the Marquis’ heir? How all of a sudden was banned, and look at this meaning is even the child in her belly is not valued?” The woman also knew that her fire was inexplicable, calmed down her anger, and asked gently.
“A few days ago Miss Six almost had an accident, the Marquis knocked on the palace door at night, alarming the Emperor, just to ask the Imperial Doctor in the palace to go to Miss Six to see her, saying that Miss Six was so sick that she almost couldn’t get up, and the reason for this was that Aunt Winter deliberately took the time to delay Miss Six’s visit to the doctor, which is why the Marquis was so shaken up, and directly shut Aunt Winter up.”
This matter is now a flurry of people are rumors, of course, different accounts, fat shopkeeper this news but not outside rumors, so closer to the truth.
“This matter … although said Aunt Dong is not too good, but in the end … is still the heir of the marquis is important, the marquis came to collect the bill, you persuade the marquis, to the big thing, this kind of fight between the backyard in fact which house have. It is not a big deal, if the sixth young lady understands things, she will not well count these.”
The woman thought for a moment and softly spoke.
“This … I’m afraid the marquis is not necessarily able to listen to!” The fat shopkeeper laughed bitterly, this kind of thing, it’s really not easy to say, now the marquis for the sixth miss to the winter aunt locked up, obviously on the side of the sixth miss, as for the winter aunt’s belly carrying the heir, the marquis’s this look clearly is not valued.
This will be a good idea to pass the word upwards, and it will certainly please the marquis, but it is not possible not to say it, so you can only laugh bitterly again and again.
“Listen to listen to not listen to have to say, this is originally our duty, always can not let the marquis think poorly, this heir is of course the more the better, on the battle pro brother, fighting father and son soldiers, the marquis if there is still a heir, always better than the current situation, not to say that covet this position of the marquis of huayang, but how do you say more secure some.”
The woman talked, some words are out of the backyard outside, completely overriding the tone of the backyard.
“Fine!” The fat shopkeeper said helplessly.
“Then I’ll go back first, always push the Marquis to collect the account quickly, otherwise this account book is too much amount, if people find out, it’s really troublesome.” The woman turned around and ordered a few more words, then went downstairs through the side door on the side.
This side door was right at the back entrance of this compartment, considered a secret door that no one went up or down at all on weekdays, but the door was hidden.
The woman from this secret door down to the bottom floor is another back door, out is an ordinary alley, people come and go and not much, just a few not big yard.
She entered a small courtyard deep in the alley through the back door of “Xianzhuang”. …
As she hurried past here, a modest carriage suddenly arrived at the other end of the alley, on which Jing Wenyan sat with a sullen face and a blank expression.
She did not want to come to the back door of Xianzhuang, and did not find that hat cover the tight woman, she really just passing by and their own, because this trip is very secret, so she did not want others to know, only deliberately changed a common green wall carriage, only with a small maid, all the way to grab all the way to the path and travel.
However, many things are just so coincidental, Wei Yuewu, who was self-conscious of her improved health, was also casually walking down the street with Shu Fei at this time.
Carriage stopped at the street, look at the weather is good, lying in bed for a few days, self-conscious of no major illness Wei Yuewu came to the mood to take Shu Fei get off and walk, only her face covered with a layer of veil, slightly hide some of the beauty of the gesture, only to reveal a pair of bright and brimming water eyes.
Jing Wenyan’s carriage came out of the alleyway and was actually planning to go over to the opposite alleyway.
Sullen and silent, Jing Wenyan suddenly saw Wei Yueyue Dance in the crowd and couldn’t help but let out a low eep, her eyes lit up and hurriedly commanded “Stop the car!”
The coachman picked up the whip and flicked it, and the carriage stopped.
A maiden jumped down briskly from the carriage and blocked in front of Wei YueMei and Shu Fei, “But is it Princess QingDe?”
The maid asked respectfully.
Wei Yuewu raised her willow eyebrows, looked at the unmarked carriage in front of her, then looked at the not-so-familiar maid in front of her, and hesitantly asked, “Are you …”
