After death, I became the cannon fodder of the three protagonists

While Mu Si and the governor of Jingzhao were investigating the case, Su Yi, a Hanlin official, arrived at the Gu Mansion with a canonization decree in his hands.

Behind him, the officials carried a plaque engraved with "Zhennan Prince's Mansion", and some people held auspicious clothes, and behind him, there were eight loads of things rewarded by Emperor Jingyong.

The Gu Mansion had been prepared for a long time. The front door was wide open and the desk was ready. There was no trace of the assassin entering the house in the middle of the night.

Gu Ping'an was still on Baihe Mountain, Gu Jinnian and Chen Qingzhou would not take a rest until tomorrow, and the only masters in the house were Su Mo and Gu Xingnian.

The mother and daughter were served by the maids, and they were forced to take a flower bath and put on heavy and fragrant clothes.

The little girl was quite happy to smell her fragrance, especially when she moved her hands and feet, listening to the jingling of the jewelry on her body, she was even more happy.

Su Mo frowned.

Her hair was heavy because of the jewelry, and the fragrance of flowers from her body and clothes were intertwined, making her dizzy.

Jin Zhu noticed Su Mo's discomfort, took out a handkerchief soaked in mint water and handed it to her, whispering to comfort her: "Madam, please be patient. After receiving the imperial edict and sending Hanlin Chengzhi away, you can take off the jewelry and replace it." Get your clothes back."

Su Mo hummed lightly, took the veil, and the smell of mint penetrated into her nose, making her clearer.

The imperial decree was read out in front of the main hall, and there was Gu Guanshi who gave instructions in advance, and Su Mo's performance made it impossible to find fault.

After bowing his head to thank him, Su Mo knelt down, took the imperial edict with both hands, and then stood up.

The eunuch who followed Su Yi waved the floating dust, took out a list and began to sing about the things that Emperor Jing Yong bestowed on Su Mo.

Manager Gu recruited servants to help the officials take down the plaque of "Gu Mansion" and replace it with "Zhennan Prince's Mansion".

Su Yi is also called an old acquaintance, and it was Luoshan Village where he and Hei Jiawei went together in the first place.

It's just that time has passed, Su Yi glanced at Su Mo, feeling complicated in his heart.

Who would have thought that the country woman he met a year ago was actually the grandson-in-law of the late King Zhennan.

Su Yi quickly looked away, his errands were done, so it was natural for him to leave.

Manager Gu smiled and sent Su Yi and the others out of the mansion, and at the same time handed them the purse that he had prepared earlier.

After everyone left, Gu Guanshi immediately arranged for his servants to bring firecrackers and lit them in front of the house, making them crackle.

Gu's Mansion... No, it's Zhennan Prince's Mansion now.

Gu Guanshi directly asked his servants to carry all the things that Emperor Jingyong rewarded to Duofuxuan's warehouse.

Su Mo didn't say anything and asked Jin Zhu to follow Gu and register everything.

She herself went to the ear room, where hot water was already prepared, she soaked it for nearly two quarters of an hour, and felt that the smell on her body had dissipated a lot, so she got up and changed into comfortable clothes.

Originally, Su Mo asked Mu Si to arrange for some of the Su family's stewards to come here before Su Yi arrived at Gu's residence, so he could take advantage of the situation to beat them up.

But who ever thought about it, the assassination happened, and Mu Si was only thinking about investigating the case, so he was delayed.

Now that the case has been settled, Mu Si left the palace, wrote a secret letter to Gu Qinhan, and then went to the inn to find the stewards of the Su residence.

The capital is neither too small nor too big. If something happens, it will spread throughout the streets in less than half an hour.

Those in charge of the Su family naturally heard about Gu's affairs from other people's mouths.

The first few people were very anxious and wanted to pack up and go to Gu's house, but they had some scruples.

After all, relying on their identities, there was no one to lead them to visit rashly. They were afraid that they would be sent away by the guards of the Gu residence just by approaching them.

Merchants, in the eyes of most aristocratic families, are lowly people.

Although it sounds like my young lady is now the head mistress of Gu Mansion, it doesn't mean that my young lady is really living a comfortable life.

The young lady has been in exile for many years, and she has suffered a lot of blood and hatred. Naturally, they can do nothing to cause trouble for the young lady.

Therefore, the three stewards patiently waited for Mu Si's arrival in the inn.

Who would have thought that instead of waiting for Mu Si, he would have waited for the news that Su Mo had been conferred the title of Zhennan Princess.

The stewards were shocked.They were already deeply shocked when they learned that their young lady's brother-in-law was the commander of the Black Armored Guards.

It is even more unbelievable to hear that my young lady has been conferred the title of Princess Zhennan now.

I have been to the capital for the past two days, but there is no such thing in the news they inquired about?

"Could it be that we heard wrong?"

Su Jincai was the first to break the silence.

Su Jinbao on the side shook his head, "I heard it very clearly. It was the Gu Mansion that the assassin entered last night."

Su Jinfan is the oldest among the stewards in the Su family, and everyone usually takes him as the leader.

Su Jinfan lightly clicked the table and glanced at the two of them, "It doesn't matter whether she is Mrs. Gu or Princess Zhennan. We only need to know that she is the eldest lady of the Su family and our master. That's enough."

Even though she said that, she still felt a little panicked in her heart. Princess Zhennan was a relative of the emperor, so she was different after all.

The three stewards had their own concerns, and even took a few bites for lunch, especially Mu Si's delay in coming, which inevitably made them even more uneasy.

Could it be that this young lady of my family will abandon the Su family after she becomes the princess of Zhennan?
After all, the Su family is a merchant...

Fortunately, Mu Si finally came.

The three stewards were relieved when Mu Si told them to take them to Zhennan Prince's Mansion, but they were not completely at ease.

They couldn't feel at ease until they saw Su Mo.

Gu Mansion is close to the Imperial Palace, but a certain distance from the inn.

The street was bustling with people, and the carriage was driving slowly. The three stewards lifted a corner of the curtain, listened to the chatter of passers-by, and realized that there were very few voices about the assassination case and Princess Zhennan. They exchanged glances.

It seems that someone made a move.

The three of them raised their hearts again.

The carriage slowly stopped in front of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, and Mu Si led them in through the side door. Steward Gu received the news in advance and asked someone to prepare tea, and went to the backyard to invite Su Mo over.

Mu Si had something to say to Su Mo, and after leading the three stewards into the front hall, he went out and stood guard outside the door.

When he saw Su Mo coming, he hastily cupped his hands, "I pay my respects to Madam."

Mu Si was very stubborn about Gu Qinhan. He believed in his heart that there was something special between Gu Qinhan and Su Mo. Even though Su Mo had been canonized as Princess Zhennan, he still called her Madam.

Su Mo hadn't gotten used to her new identity yet, so he didn't notice anything strange at this moment. He nodded slightly, looked around Mu Si, and looked inside the room.

"But those stewards are here?"

Mu Si nodded, "Exactly, but before that, I have something to report to Madam..."

He paused, lowered his voice, "It's about the assassin last night."

Su Mo's face condensed slightly, after thinking for a while, she pointed to the ear chamber beside her, "Come with me."

The two entered the ear room one after the other, and Gu Guanshi personally guarded the door.

Mu Si didn't hesitate, and told the truth about what happened this morning.

When Su Mo heard that Fang Shi had been assassinated and died in front of the town inspector's gate, Su Mo froze as expected.

Fang Shi... just died like that?

All calculations have been made, but I didn't plan that the cub might be born prematurely... I had a stomachache for a long time last night. I went to the maternity checkup in the morning. The doctor told me to get ready, and it might start at any time.

If you still feel uncomfortable, go to the hospital immediately. After all, it is a second child. If you bear it, you may be born in the house...

My cub is not full-term yet, and my husband hasn't come back yet. (_|||)
