Chapter 792 Demolition of the house (1 more)
After washing his hands and drinking tea, Yun Huai asked, "Where did it happen?"

"Zhu Chao Street." Xu Jia replied, "It is said that it is in Shiban Hutong."

"The location is quite out of the way." Yun Huai paused, "It just so happens that I don't have hidden stakes over there."

In other words, there used to be a small front in Shiban Hutong for people to shave, but after Emperor Xuan Jing proposed to accept Tianying Guard, that hidden pile followed other large troops and surrendered to the court, and now it has sneaked into the north. Yan.

Xu Jia was anxious, "If we can't find out what happened, then my brother's crime will be confirmed by the people of the eldest princess's mansion?"

Yun Huai's face was always calm, and he said slowly after hearing the words: "It's not impossible, as long as I see your brother, I'll find out if I ask."

Xu Jia had also thought about this issue before, no matter what was said outside, it was always a one-sided story, which cannot be fully believed. If you want to know what happened in Zhuchao Street at that time, you have to ask your brother yourself.

However, that was the Dachang Princess' mansion, with the protection of the late emperor, there must be many guards in the mansion, if she sneaked in secretly, the possibility of getting out unharmed is too small.

At this moment, Yun Shisan suddenly interjected, "The Feng family? If I remember correctly, the Yun family has business contacts with the Feng family."

"Is this true?" Xu Jia seemed to have seized the opportunity, and looked at Yun Shisan with burning eyes.

Yun Shisan nodded very positively, "I remember correctly, it is the Feng family, the husband's family of Princess Qinshui."

If the Yun family had something to do with the Feng family, then this matter would be much simpler. Xu Jia mustered up her courage and looked up at Yun Huai, "Can Patriarch Yun take me to the eldest princess' mansion?"

Yun Huai asked: "How to get there?"

Xu Jia felt sorry for having to bother him again, but he still had to owe the favor, and said with a shy face, "The suit A Rong made last time is still there, if I pretend to be a disciple of the Yun family, I will follow you in and out The Dachang Princess' Mansion is much easier."

That "A Rong" made Yun Huai look at her for a long time.

Xu Jia didn't understand why he was looking at him, but felt that his scalp was a little numb, and he didn't speak very well, "Yes, isn't it inconvenient?"

Yun Shisan heheed twice, breaking the stiff atmosphere, "Isn't it just dressing up as Shiliu, although Miss Xu's stature is somewhat different from Shiliu's, but Shiliu has never been to the Dachang Princess's Mansion, and people who want to come there will recognize it." not come out."

"Let's go after a stick of incense." Yun Huai's voice was indifferent, "Although Princess Qinshui doesn't show up often, she is not a good person. Take what should be taken care of, and don't let her see the clues."

Xu Jia didn't know if Mo Xiang and Yun Shisan understood the phrase "keep what should be kept away", she subconsciously lowered her head and glanced at her chest almost the moment he said it, and then her face became unbearably hot.

However, looking at Yunhuai again, the other party's long eyelashes droop slightly, and the movements of drinking tea are elegant and soothing, which is pleasing to the eye.

Xu Jia felt that she probably thought too much.

Back in Zhenxihou's Mansion, Xu Jia found out the chest cloth and took it away for herself, then put on the Yun's school uniform that Ye Rong had prepared for her earlier.

When Mo Xiang saw her, she covered her mouth and smiled, "Young lady is dressed like this, the slaves and servants can see that they are all disciples of the Yun family, let alone others."

Glancing again at the place that Xu Jia had flattened, he immediately felt distressed, "Miss, it's hard to accept this, isn't it?"

Xu Jia felt dizzy even standing there, and gritted his teeth, "There's nothing I can do about it. The most important thing right now is to see my brother."

……

When Xu Jia returned to Yun Huai's house, the other party seemed to glance at her, and soon, Xu Jia had no time to react.

Yun Shisan approached and looked at her with a smile, "I'll go to the eldest princess's mansion in a while, you will be sixteen, you can't reveal your secrets."

Xu Jia nodded, "Okay."

When the time came, several people set off and rode to the mansion of the eldest princess Qinshui.

At this time, in the east room of the main courtyard of the Princess Mansion, a woman in her fifties was sitting. She had a long face, her temples were already grey, and there were fine lines at the end of her eyes, but those eyes were always imposing, a bit mean like .

She was holding a tea bowl, and the lid of the bowl gently flicked the foam, and asked the man in the round collar sitting next, "How is it?"

The woman was Princess Qinshui, and the man next to her head was Feng Chuan, the stepson of Princess Qinshui.

Hearing this, Feng Chuan sneered triumphantly, "Mother, don't worry, that bitch is sure to die, but, if she gets involved in Zhenxihou's Mansion, I'm afraid it will be difficult to end."

Princess Qinshui frowned, but said: "At first, I wanted to find someone to rape her, so I would justifiably send her back. Whoever wants the boy from Zhenxihou's Mansion to bump into him, I can't help making things worse." gone."

Feng Chuan's official wife, Li Shi, is the daughter of the Minister of War.

The fact that the Feng family was born in a merchant family and was able to marry such an aristocratic daughter was all due to Princess Qinshui's honor.

Li's family background is extraordinary, and she is also the daughter of the first wife. If the Feng family wants to divorce her, there must be an upright reason.

……

Yunhuai and the others are still on the way.

Taking advantage of Xu Jia's return home to change clothes, Yun Huai asked Yun Shisan to go to the "Bao Inquiry" shop in charge of selling information to buy a piece of information about Princess Qinshui's mansion, and the people there just delivered it.

In the past, directly contacting the hidden piles would be able to find out the old background of Qinshui Dachang Princess's mansion, but now it is different, the Tianying Guards have all been withdrawn, and Yun Huai knew that Emperor Xuanjing was afraid, so he did not install his own in the capital. People, so intelligence depends on buying.

Right now, he is flipping through the information he just obtained.

It said that Princess Qinshui has always been favored by the late Emperor because of her life-saving grace. Every year, besides Shiyi, the palace will give her an extra sum of money, and the eldest princess uses this money to support her. The whole family also bought several other farms and houses.

It's just that after the death of the first emperor, the money was cut off. The new emperor acted vigorously and took some drastic actions in order to purge the court. One of them was to order the Ministry of Industry to demolish the buildings that the nobles in the capital had exceeded. The Princess Mansion had the most buildings that violated the regulations, and it was the first to suffer.

The Feng family is used to being rice worms, and they are used to stretching out their hands to Princess Qinshui when they have no money. Now that they suddenly don't have the money, they have to demolish the house, which is tantamount to cutting off the livelihood of Feng's father and son.

……

Yun Huai told Xu Jia what he saw.

Xu Jia walked beside him on horseback, and frowned deeply when he heard the words, "What does the demolition of the Princess Mansion have to do with my brother? He is not from the Ministry of Industry, and he did not lead people to demolish those buildings. Why should the eldest princess detain her? My brother is a member of Wucheng Bingmasi, or the son of the Marquis Mansion, so what do they want to do?"

"I'm afraid there are some inside stories." Yun Huai said.

Xu Jia thought of something, "I think there is a place that is very strange."

"Tell me." Yun Huai looked at her.

Xu Jia analyzed: "Mrs. Feng is the daughter of the servant of the Ministry of War, and her background is extraordinary. Now that there is a scandal, shouldn't the eldest princess's mansion do everything possible to suppress the rumors? Why no one cares about the rumors, but instead detains my brother , the whole city knows about it? Are they relying on the power of the Princess Mansion, not afraid to tear themselves apart with the Minister of the Ministry of War, or have they never thought of restoring Madam Feng's reputation at all?"

"Then we can only know the answer when we meet Xu Shizi." Yun Shisan said.

The group of three soon arrived at the gate of Qinshui Dachang Princess's mansion, and they could see that the east side of the mansion had been demolished from a long distance, and the new wall had not yet been built.

The corners of Xu Jia's mouth twitched slightly, "Our new emperor is really unselfish."

After all, she was also my aunt, and she would tear it down as soon as she said it, without giving half a penny.

Yun Shisan said with a smile: "Since the operation is going to be performed, it is natural to find a fat sheep. Who told the Feng family to expand the mansion beyond the limits, and to expand it to such a large extent. I heard that apart from this one, several other prince's mansions were also destroyed If the seedlings are planted, they will be thrown out if they are not allowed to be dismantled, and they will find a place to live by themselves."

While speaking, Yun Shisan got off his horse, walked to the porter, and handed out Yun's badge.

The concierge's expression changed, and he ran in immediately.

Princess Qinshui was talking to Feng Chuan. When she heard that Mr. Yun came, she was startled, and then she was ecstatic, "Hurry up!"

No matter who came, the Yun family was an unstoppable backer, if they could get close to the Yun family, the Feng family would be able to rest easy in the future.

Thinking about it, he told Feng Chuan, "Go back to your room and avoid it for a while, the people of the Yun family can't easily offend you."

Although Feng Chuan really wanted to see Yun's disciple's demeanor with his own eyes, he thought that it was really inappropriate for him to show up because of Li's scandal, so he had to give up, stood up and went back to the room.

Under the leadership of the concierge, Xu Jia and the others walked around for a quarter of an hour, and finally arrived at the hall. She couldn't help but tsk tsk in her heart, no wonder the new emperor ordered the demolition. Princess Qinshui usually keeps a low profile. But it is not low-key at all, such a big house is even more magnificent than that of the emperor's family. You must know that the Feng family is just a merchant, and the eldest princess is no longer the princess. Such an expansion of the house is challenging the strict rules of the Chu State. For the sake of relatives, the first emperor may turn a blind eye to the level, but when it comes to the new emperor, it is not so easy to talk about.
