Miss Fortune: Is the regent ready for today?

Chapter 16 The Princess Visits
Huaishan, Yueyang Taoist Temple.

The snow-white carrier pigeon landed on the window edge. A hand reached out from the room and untied the mailbox from under the carrier pigeon. After reading it carefully, the person in the room asked the disciple who was guarding the window, "The enchantress of Changlinya and her greedy man." Your brother has arrived in Beijing?"

"Go back to Master, they have been in Beijing for three days."

"It seems I was injured this time and shouldn't be in seclusion." The man sighed.

"What is the master's order?"

"Nothing else. Just now Li'er sent a letter to remind you. Since the object was lost from my hand, I, as an uncle, must find it back and deliver it to Li'er safely." The person in the room thought for a moment. , "The two princes in the palace who are not fuel-efficient have been fighting fiercely openly and secretly recently. I was afraid that they would involve Li'er, so I sent Yinhuang and Siqing to help Li'er."

"Yes, my disciple, I will go and inform my senior brothers and sisters."

"and many more."

"Master, do you have any more instructions?"

"Is there any new information about that object?"

"Master, no. The two from Changlinya went straight to the capital after leaving Baiqi Villa. They were intercepted and killed several times without any injuries, but only lost some property. Later I heard that they arrived in front of their house. , was assassinated again, and escaped." The disciple paused, "It seems that the two days in Beijing have been very peaceful, so there is no new news. Now many people's eyes are no longer on them. After all, there is no Anyone who has seen it with their own eyes knows that the object is really on them, it is just a guess. Moreover, when they entered the capital, they used the token of Antaisi. Once it was linked to the imperial court, many people in the world did not dare to act rashly. "

The person in the room snorted coldly, "Among the five people living on Changlin Cliff, these two are the most cunning and thoughtful." He stood up, "The person who snatched the object from my hand that day was a young woman. In this huge world, there are really only a few people who can fight with me and not fall behind! Rumor has it that the enchantress has extremely high attainments in martial arts. Although I have never fought with her, the figure of that person is very similar to her!"

"Master, that person also used bone-penetrating golden needles?"

"No, since she came to rob something, how could she use her real skills? The woman took a long sword, and the sword was quenched with poison. It really looked like the style of the witch." The person in the room thought for a while, and then ordered: "When Si Qing and the others arrive in Shangjing, let them find a chance to fight with that witch and find out her background. It would be best if they can force her to use a sword."

"Yes, disciple, go and inform senior brothers and sisters now."

Go to Beijing, Yin Mansion.It was already dusk when the three of them returned to Yin Mansion.

Yu Ruyi got off the carriage briskly, and Yin Luo and Yan Juan followed him. They watched him carrying the Pixiu statue towards the main hall, apparently planning to put it on the shelf in the exhibition hall.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Yu Feng walked out of Dongyuan, "What good things did the Sixth Young Master bring back?"

"Yu Xiu Pi Xiu." Yin Luo interjected.

Yu Feng looked at her in surprise, "You actually took the initiative to talk to someone?"

Yin Luo tilted his head and did not answer his question.

Yu Feng walked to Yan Ao, "What happened to them in Tingxian Tower?"

Yan Yao answered briefly: "I didn't follow him."

Satisfied, Yu Ruyi put the Pixiu statue on the shelf in the exhibition hall and praised: "It's not bad."

When the disciples on duty in the dining room saw them coming back, they started making preparations.

After the four of them had their meal, they drank tea for a while in the main hall and talked about what happened in Tingxian Building today and the people they met.

As the sun sets, the moon rises, and the stars shine brightly, the swaying red candle's light becomes fainter.

The fourth night in Beijing passed like this.

Early the next morning, the Yin Mansion welcomed its first visitor through the main entrance.

Meng Kong looked at the girl in goose-yellow dress in front of him and felt that she looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it.Behind her were two strange men, wearing brown robes, each holding a wooden box.

Ming Fang smiled and explained the purpose of his visit: "Please go and inform me. It means that Fang came to Miss Yin to express his gratitude." Meng Kong stared at her hesitantly for a while, but still felt that she looked familiar.

Zhao Youzhiwu saw that he was staring at his second princess so directly, and his face was a little unhappy, but Ming Fang was not angry or annoyed, and repeated what he just said: "Please go and inform me, Ming Fang came to say thank you. "

Only then did Meng Kong come back to his senses. He was a little embarrassed and awkwardly arched his hands towards Ming Fang, "Sorry, I was distracted just now. I'll go now." After saying that, he turned around and ran towards the inner courtyard.

Zhaoyou muttered: "What kind of gatekeeper is this? He can lose his mind even when someone is standing in front of him... Moreover, isn't the Yin Mansion rumored to be very rich? Why do they find an attendant to guard the gate?"

"His martial arts skills are very high," Zhao Wu judged, "at least above you."

Zhaoyou had a clear mind: "So what? I will never be reduced to a gatekeeper. Right? Second princess?" He smiled at Mingfang, a somewhat flattering smile.

Mingfang glared at him.

Soon, Meng Kong came back.He leaned over and cupped his hands towards Ming Fang, "I didn't know that the second princess is here, so I was rude just now." He spread his hands toward the house, "Second princess, please."

Ming Fang nodded and stepped into the door of the mansion, followed closely by Zhao You Zhao Wu.As soon as she entered the house, she saw a young man wearing amber robes walking towards them. He was as bright as maple leaves in autumn, free and extreme, with clear and three-dimensional bones, and he had a standard appearance for a Liang man.

Yu Feng walked very slowly, and when he saw Ming Fang, he cupped his hands and said, "Our lady asked me to come and greet the princess."

Mingfang nodded and followed him into the courtyard.

She thought a lot along the way. Before she met Yin Luo in Tingxian Tower, she had already heard about the Yin Mansion, because the way they entered the capital was too flamboyant. They took the token of Commander An Tai and spent a lot of money to buy it. Went down to the house east by south of the palace.Although she was picked up by the Min family in Cuizhou when she was very young, she knew that this house was once the residence of the Yao family, one of the famous families in Shangjing.After hearing that the Yao family was killed and overthrown in the struggle for power among the six tribes a few years ago, the Yao Mansion became vacant until now, when it was bought by the Yin family.

There are always some unwritten rules circulating in the markets of every city. In Shangjing, if someone buys the vacant mansion of a declining family, the new owner of the house will replace the original family and participate in the old disputes.And this Yao Mansion was once taken under the command of her fourth emperor brother.This made her think more.

Ming Fang recalled that before she left for Beijing, her father often invited her to have dinner and told her some things about his youth, from the beginning of spring to the end of winter, from midsummer to the end of prosperity.There is always a person named Yin appearing in those stories that are not known to be true or false.

His name is Yin Jielin, the only son of the Yin family, one of the five nobles in Beijing.

The hierarchy of Daliang Shangjing is very clear. Those who have been serving as officials for generations are called nobles, while those who have established a foothold in Shangjing and have close ties with officials are called aristocratic families. In addition, there are Jiufu, Liubu , respectively controlled by the Zhangfu Department and the Chengxing Department.

The Yin family has produced prime ministers from generation to generation. They have high family lintels and are upright and loyal. They have been a great help to the Ming family since ancient times. There are also rumors that the founding emperor of Daliang, with the help of the Yu family, cooperated with the Yin family, the Mei family, the Song Dynasty family, and the Ming family. The families worked together to achieve hegemony, and later succeeded. Emperor Ming successfully ascended the throne, and the three families of Yin, Mei, and Song became officials in the court. Their descendants all studied together with the princes and princesses, and enjoyed high honors.

Yin Xiang, who repeatedly appears in the story of Emperor Chongwen, is not only a loyal and upright good official, but also his brother who he has played with since childhood. When the three sons were fighting for the throne, Yin Xiang jumped into a cold winter pond and rescued Chongwen who was plotted against him. The emperor once broke into the court after Emperor Chongwen ascended the throne and asked him why he did not strictly control floods...

Mingfang has seen his portrait.

The Yin Luo's features and eyes that I saw in Tingxian Tower yesterday were very similar to the person in the painting.

Yin Jielin did have a daughter, but her name was not Yin Luo, but...Yin Helan.

Ming Fang raised her head slightly and looked at the main hall of the Yin Mansion, which was very close at hand. There was a purple wooden plaque with the word "Xinxin" engraved on it. She walked into the main hall with a smile on her lips.

When Ming Fang stepped into the main hall, Yin Luo happened to make the tea. She paused slightly towards Ming Fang as a salute, and then she smiled and said: "I thought the second princess was just saying it politely yesterday, why did she really come so early in the morning? Yes." She didn't seem confused, just being polite.

Ming Fang sat at the tea table at her invitation. Yin Luo gave her a cup of tea. Zhao Wu, who was waiting at the side, immediately stepped forward and took out a silver needle from his sleeve to test whether it was poisonous. Was stopped by Ming Fang.

Yin Luo looked at Zhao Wu and raised his eyebrows. He didn't look angry, but he didn't say much either.

Ming Fang shook his head at Zhao Wu and said in a very sure tone: "Miss Yin will not harm me."

Yin Luo was amused by these words, "Why are the second princess so sure?" She leaned towards Ming Fang opposite and stared at Ming Fang's eyes carefully. They were a pair of almond eyes, somewhat similar to her master, but There was no desolation in Ming Fanlan's eyes.
