Chapter 18
The father and daughter talked about what had happened in the past few days, which made Yun Xi completely relieved.

What happened in the morning court today was originally arranged by the emperor. Hou Jingbian informed the emperor that the Chen family had learned of his serious injury, and then made this plan to drive Chen Siyuan into a desperate situation, so that he could find out the people behind him.

Yunxi told her father the news she got from Xiao Muyun, and Hou Jingbian was also very shocked.

Xue Qing seemed to be playing a big game of chess, and Chen Siyuan was just one of the chess pieces.

The father and daughter discussed for more than an hour before they came out.After Jingbian Hou repeatedly tried to persuade her to stay, Yunxi was still planning to return to her princess mansion.

At that house, Marquis Jingbian also begged the emperor to mention the words "Yuci County Lord's Mansion" in his own handwriting, so Yun Xi happened to be able to live there aboveboard.

Before leaving the mansion, Tsing Yi said a few words to Yun Xi, Yun Xi's face changed slightly, and her originally gentle smile became sharper.

For Jing Bianhou's sake, she didn't intend to care about anything, but she didn't expect that woman to be so courageous, daring to tamper with her carriage, it seems that she is still too kind.

After thinking about it, he turned around and went back to Hou's mansion, planning to go back after having dinner with Jingbianhou.Zhang Yuelan didn't take it seriously when she received the news, she knew that she was the mistress of this mansion, and Yuan Yunxi would go back sooner or later.

At the dinner table, Zhang Yuelan had an image of a loving mother. After so many years of acting, she was used to it. Marquis Jingbian was not often in the mansion, so she was very happy to see this scene. Yunxi just twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, holding back the disgust in her heart , getting close to Zhang Yuelan on purpose, made Yuan Qingyue so angry that she almost couldn't hold back, and she didn't have a good face after a meal.

After dinner, Yun Xi deliberately followed Jing Bianhou to the study for a while and played chess.When the father and daughter were having a good time, the servants came to report that something happened to the second young lady, Yuan Qingyue.

It turned out that Yuan Qingyue, who was in a bad mood after eating, heard from somewhere that there was a new arrival in the Pearl Tower. Seeing that it was still early, she was about to leave the mansion. When she was about to board the carriage, she happened to see Yunxi's luxurious carriage. , Looked at his own again, the fire that had just been suppressed came up again.

She was used to domineering, and forced her to ride in Yunxi's carriage, but the servants did not dare to say anything, so they could only let her ride in Yunxi's carriage.

But it didn't take long before something went wrong.

When the carriage reached the street, a dog rushed out from the side of the road and startled the horse.Although the horse was well trained, it suddenly paused.

At this moment, the axle on one side of the carriage suddenly broke, and the carriage rolled over on the street unexpectedly and hit several vendors' stalls on the side of the road.

Yuan Qingyue fell out of the car and passed out on the spot.The guards were so frightened that they hurriedly carried her back.

Jing Bianhou frowned when he got the news, he is not someone who has never seen the world.Immediately, he noticed that something was wrong.

Jing Bianhou looked at Yun Xi, who was as if nothing had happened, and asked about the carriage again. After confirming again that it was Yun Xi's carriage, his expression suddenly became very ugly.

Yun Xi didn't care about what was going on behind the scenes. After dinner, Jing Bianhou personally sent her back to the Princess's Mansion, and sent additional people to protect her, and then went back to the mansion to see Yuan Qingyue.

The next day came the news that Zhang Yuelan had been sent to the family temple.Yun Xi just smiled and didn't care.

Yunxi took the red clothes and Yingyue carefully sorted out the property in their hands.Although Xue Qing's intentions have not been found out yet, he can't just wait.

Hearing the two little girls chatting and saying that silver is such a good thing, she remembered that maybe she could really do something else.

When she was Su Yunxi back then, her property was twice as much as it is now.After all, the Su family is the richest man, and many people stare at the money on the surface, but even Yun Xi himself doesn't know how much money he has behind the scenes.

She suddenly remembered what her grandmother told her back then, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly ordered Hongyi to find a way to send a letter to Xiao Muyun, that she would find him for something.

That night, Yunxi sent all the girls to bed early, and asked all the girls in green and red to stay in the yard. Don't stop Xiao Muyun when he comes, watch the gate of the yard, and don't let others in.

On the second watch, before Xiao Muyun came, Yunxi didn't dare to close the window, fearing that he wouldn't be able to come in, so she fell asleep lying on the table with the window open.

When Xiao Muyun rushed to the horsewhip, he saw Yun Xi falling asleep like this, and his heart warmed up, running around all night was nothing, he lightly put a coat on Yun Xi, unexpectedly Yun Xi still After waking up, rubbing his eyes and seeing Xiao Muyun beside him, he jumped up happily: "You're here!"

With a warm heart, Xiao Muyun smiled and said, "Why are you looking for me in such a hurry?"

Yun Xi raised her head shyly and said, "Can you help me find a way to get something from Zuo Xiangfu? It's very important to me."

Yunxi thought of many reasons to explain this matter, but Xiao Muyun just said a good word gently.Just this one word warmed her cold heart.Then he told him where the things were hidden, Xiao Muyun only said to wait for news in a few days.

After talking with Yunxi for a while, Xiao Muyun left.Before Xiao Muyun left, he told her to go to the next door if something happened, and the people there would pass on the news to him, so she should not worry.

Only then did Yunxi know that the neighbor next door was bought by Xiao Muyun, and the good palace doesn't live here, so he bought a house here.This area is full of high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Although Xiao Muyun was a little puzzled about how he bought it, he was very happy in his heart.

Two days later, someone delivered a brocade box to the Princess' Mansion.

When Yunxi opened it, her eyes became moist. It was this jade pendant, which was what her grandmother said back then, and it was the only thing her grandmother left her.

……

Young Master Pianpian in black clothes walked out from the back door of the princess' mansion with two guards in white clothes with embarrassing expressions. It was Yunxi who was leading Qingyi and Yingyue.

Yingyue is the chief financial steward, her abilities are not ordinary, and the safety of the two of them is guaranteed when they go out with Tsing Yi. Originally, Hong Yi was going to follow her, but Tsing Yi, who has always been less talkative, took the initiative to ask for it this time. After coming out together, Yun Xi agreed without saying a word, Hong Yi pouted out of anger, and Tsing Yi's ears turned red from embarrassment.

Hongyi is good at poison, and also knows some disguise techniques. Hongyi prepared a bunch of things and pasted them here and there. After half an hour, a few of them couldn't recognize themselves when they looked in the mirror. Young master, it's just that Yingyue is a little awkward, obviously not used to this men's attire.

A few people came to a pawnshop in the west of the city. The name of the shop was Youjian Pawnshop, and the name was very interesting.

After Yunxi and the others went in, they took out the jade pendant and put it on the counter. The clerk looked at it and said, "Does this young master want to die or live?"

Yunxi shook her fan and said with a smile: "I don't deserve this treasure, I just borrow it!"

The guy's face was a bit ugly, but he still held back his smile and said, "What do you mean, sir?"

Yun Xi shook her head and didn't answer him, but said: "You can ask your shopkeeper, don't worry he won't blame you!"

The little guy saw that Yunxi and the others were well dressed, and he didn't seem to be looking for trouble, so he said "wait a minute" and hurried to the back hall.

After a while, a fat shopkeeper came in a hurry from the back hall, with some tiny beads of sweat on his forehead.After looking at the jade pendant, then at Yunxi and the others, he asked, "Dare to ask your surname."

"Grandpa said that all men are created equal, regardless of high or low!"

Yingyue and the others were at a loss, but the fat shopkeeper seemed to be taken aback, both surprised and happy.The fat shopkeeper hurriedly said to wait a moment, and hurried out again.

The little guy was also very embarrassed, and served a new pot of tea in embarrassment.

Tsing Yi didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, until Yingyue muttered in dissatisfaction, Yun Xi just smiled and didn't say much, only she herself knew the excitement in her heart.

The kung fu shopkeeper with half a cup of tea appeared, sweating profusely, and respectfully invited Yun Xi and the others to the inner hall.

As soon as Yunxi entered the room, he saw an old man sitting at the head.Just one look at Yunxi's eyes turned red. Grandpa Su, that old man is the chief housekeeper of the Su family, and his grandfather's sworn brother. I don't know his name. Yunxi has called him Grandpa Su since he was a child.
