Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 153 Disharmony in the inner chamber
Shen Yan opened up a new world for her future, and she deliberately put the matter of the Ji family behind her.

However, the next morning, Pearl brought her another message: "I heard that the Ji family had just left the city gate yesterday, and that bastard Ji Jie had his tongue and hands cut off on the way!
"I don't know who did it. It seems that the old man doesn't know about it!"

Hearing this, Shen Xi also stopped abruptly under the corridor. "Who did it?"

"I just don't know!" Pearl said, "The Ji family thought it was us who did it, so they turned back and went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to look for the old man.

"The old master got angry and told them to go to Shuntian Mansion to file a complaint if they couldn't do it, and let Shuntian Mansion go and find out who did it!

"They don't know whether they weighed the sue or failed to sue, or believed the old man's words, and finally left."

Suspicion suddenly arose in Shen Xi's heart, this is strange, it wasn't Shen Ruopu, nor she did it, if Shen Yan had this ability, she wouldn't be bullied like that by Ji Jie.

There is no need to count on Shen Qu's virtue.

Who else would there be?Does the Ji family have enemies elsewhere?
Cut off his hands and tongue... It was clearly because he didn't want him to speak outside, could it be because of Shen Yan's matter to seal his mouth?
But being able to cut off his tongue and hands under the noses of the Ji family, and still make people unable to find evidence, if you don't have certain skills, you will never be able to do it!
With this ability and helping them, the only one in her impression is—Qi Jiu? !

Could it be Qi Jiu?
Thinking of this, her mind suddenly trembled again.

The Ji family acquired a large amount of property from the second room, and this time Ji Jie was so bold that he wanted to take Shen Yan's life, so there is no guarantee that he will not set his mind on her next time.

Since Qi Jiu wanted to protect her wholeheartedly, he would naturally not allow him to live in peace. How could she let Shen Yan eunuch him, Qi Jiu might have sealed his mouth for this reason.

And the key is that apart from her, no one would do this!
But why did she appear at this time?

The image of the Helian people who assassinated Shen Yan mentioned flashed in her mind, and her brows frowned for several days and did not let go.

It's July when we're talking.

After Shen Xi took advantage of the gap after Shen Xin's betrothal gift, and told Shen Ruopu that he wanted to take Shen Yan into the palace to have a look, the two sides began to prepare.

Not many people in Yanwang Mansion have been relaxed recently.

As soon as Xiao Huai entered the Zhaoyang Palace, Su Yan came up to greet him and reported to him: "The palace has sent a ceremony, and the elder son and the elder Han Ge were the heads of all civil and military officials at the grand ceremony. The elder Han Ge declared the decree, and the elder son presided over the whole ceremony. .

"The crown dress, the king's chariot, and the subordinates have all been prepared. The list of the ministries has also been submitted to the Chengyun Hall. Please look over it, the young master."

The grand ceremony of the capital is the most important thing in the wild.

King Yan left Beijing half a month ago to inspect the military camps.

The Helian people are the confidants of the Great Zhou royal family. Although the Wuma people are not very harmful, they have been oppressed tightly these years.

If the remnants of the second clan make trouble at this time, it will not be honorable to the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Therefore, the safety of the capital is handed over to Xiao Huai, who will lead the subordinates of the Chinese Army Yamen to be responsible for the guards outside the palace and inside the capital.

The servant came up to take off his armor, Xiao Huai stepped into the bathtub except for his clothes, and sat silent for a moment facing the incense burner at the corner of the desk, and said, "Which people from the Shen family are going?"

Su Yan paused, and backed out.

He came in again after a while, and said: "It's Master Shen Ruopu and the second and third daughters of the Shen family."

Xiao Huai splashed some water on his face and didn't speak any more.

Aunt Pei made several new clothes for Shen Xi to enter the palace, and made several new hairdos.

When Liu Ling went to Qionghuatai to pick out styles, he gave them to her according to the cost. He smiled and said, "Ms. Shen is the God of Wealth of our shop, how can I earn her money?"

Aunt Pei happily chose two more.

In the past few days, Shen Xi inquired about the itinerary of the female family members of the Han family.

When the Qiu family heard that the Shen family had won the honor this time, they also sent someone to say hello.

Of course, in her capacity, she doesn't need to curry favor with people like them, but such things as icing on the cake won't hurt her.

What's more, Wen Chan also said that her talent will be useful to the Han family in the future, so she is naturally happy to give her some more face.

Apart from trying to prevent Helian Assassin's moths from jumping into the flames this time, Shen Xi still has one more thing to figure out, how many old items of the Zhang family does Wen Chan or the Han family have?

But it was obviously impossible for an outsider like her to do it.

So she had to start within the Han family, and she had to find someone who could figure out the number.

Han Dun and the second master of Han, Han Jianzhang, undoubtedly knew about it, but she couldn't chew these two bones at present.

Sisters Han Ning, Song Jiao, and Qiu Shi are all possible, but there is no reason to tell her.

In addition, only the servants in charge of the treasury next to her knew.

What servants can Wen Chan have?When she married to the Han family, the dowry must be people from the past of the Zhang family.

Even after so many years, there are still a few left.And even if she accepted Zhang's family, it's impossible that she never stayed with a close maid for so many years, right?
It has only been three or four months since she woke up after her death. She still remembers those people in her room clearly.

On the sixth night of the first day of the lunar new year, she took a piece of paper to write down a few names, and gave them to Zhenzhu Yuanbei respectively: "When Jieshi arrived in the palace, the two of you tried to find a way to get close to the servants of the Han family, and inquired about these people. Are you in Han's house?

"If they are, then try to ask about their whereabouts and situation."

Pearl Yuanbei nodded solemnly.

Shen Yan took the costume and came over to let Shen Xi check it out, so she was also there.

Hearing her inquire about the Han family several times, I knew she had something to do, so I didn't dare to inquire.

But after thinking about it, she still came over: "Mr. Han Ge and his wife don't seem to have a very good relationship."

Shen Xi turned to look at her.

She said: "Because I remember, not long after Mr. Han Ge became the third prince, his wife moved out of the main courtyard and went to live in another courtyard in Ruyi Town in the southern suburbs.

"Anyway, I didn't move back until the end when I died."

Shen Xi had guessed that Grandma Han Xu's position in the Han family was delicate, but she never thought that she had a bad relationship with Han Dun.

It stands to reason that with such an outstanding husband-in-law, Xu should assist him carefully.

And if Han Dun was at odds with each other, how could he walk in the court without any worries?Besides, they're not old enough to be bored with each other.

"Does he have a concubine?" she asked.

"No." Shen Yan shook her head resolutely, "The reason why Mr. Han Ge is highly respected is not only because of his high political ability, but also because he is very disciplined in private.

"I seldom participate in court officials' invitations and entertainments. If I go, I heard that it is also Qingshui Bureau. There are no concubines in the family, and there is never a connecting room."

That's weird.

The Qingshui Bureau just doesn't invite any official prostitutes and singers for dinner. Since Han Dun is so strict, why is he at odds with his wife Xu?

Thinking about Qiu Shi being so timid and cautious in front of Wen Chan, the women in the family must also be difficult to behave. Could the reason for this disharmony have something to do with that old woman?
