Li Qingyi shook his head after hearing what Isatis said, "I don't know, I can't see clearly. If Chang Lan can find out her origins and origins, maybe we can make some guesses. But I think the hope is very slim. Regarding Princess Zhenbei, sir. Someone must have checked it long ago."
"So mysterious?"
"If we can't find it, we can only look to Mrs. Gongsun to find the answer. After all, she was the one who selected Princess Zhenbei and sent her to prison to provide a heir for the elder brother."
Silan frowned, "It's not easy to find fear in Mrs. Gongsun. She even hates her grandson. How can she still like you as my granddaughter-in-law? It's really difficult to make her tell you everything."
Li Qingyi thought for a while, "Although Mrs. Gongsun was not the only one who found someone to give her eldest son a child, she was definitely not the only one who knew about it. At least she needed someone to look for the person for her, right? Once she found the person, wouldn't it be wrong? Don’t you need someone to look after the jailers? These people must be close to the old lady, and your Excellency probably hasn’t investigated them in depth.”
Woad sighed, "When will the girl be able to relax for a few days?"
Li Qingyi secretly thought, first she was told to stop living, and now there are still people who want her life.
"We went to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion. There was not only my mother-in-law but also my grandmother above me. Filial piety is extremely important, especially on the wedding day. You can't be careless. Do you all remember what I told you before?"
"Remember, slaves don't dare to forget a word!"
******
On the second day, Mrs. Ruan sent a greeting card to Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
It was impossible for Old Madam Gongsun to turn them away due to superficial matters. Besides, Princess Zhenbei was there to persuade her. No matter how angry she was, she could not do anything inappropriate.
So the next day, Ruan took Li Qingyi to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion with a generous gift.
When Princess Zhenbei was in the capital, she was already very familiar with the Ruan family and was waiting for them in front of the mansion at the right time.
As soon as Ruan got off the carriage, she immediately came up to him with a smile, "I didn't expect that we could meet again so soon. I thought we would have to wait until next year."
Seeing that her words were natural and intimate, Mrs. Ruan could not help but let go of her embarrassment.
After all, Gongsun Yiqiu had married Li Qingyi.
"I told Mrs. Chen and the others earlier that if you always live in the capital, we can see each other more often. You won't leave this time, right?"
Princess Zhenbei lowered her voice slightly, "For such a big matter, as soon as the government got the news, they set off immediately. Many things have not had time to discuss. No, I will accompany the old lady to take the first step. The second and third bedrooms There are a lot of things at hand over there, and I have to take care of things at the old house, so I won’t be able to leave for a few days.”
Li Qingyi came out of the carriage and heard this sentence.
Since he is going to come back after a while, he plans to stay in the capital permanently.
Princess Zhenbei's eyes lit up when she saw Li Qingyi, "Good boy, come here and let me take a look."
Today, Hengwu gave Li Qingyi a single snail bun according to the style of his clothes. He only wore a clear green jade hairpin. Such a simple outfit did not make people feel plain, but showed a casual and light aura. Come.
There were also many servants from the Zhenbei Palace who came with them this time. It was the first time for everyone to see Li Qingyi, and they were all surprised by her good looks.
Princess Zhenbei was full of admiration, "This child has made a lot of achievements and has grown taller."
Every word reveals familiarity and intimacy.
Li Qingyi obediently made a blessing ceremony, "Yi'er has met the princess."
"Okay, okay, let's go in quickly. The old lady is waiting for us in Jingyuntang."
Mrs. Gongsun used to live in Jingyuntang, and the servants who stayed in the house cleaned the yard every day even if they were lazy in other places. Therefore, although the old lady arrived suddenly, she did not delay moving in.
The group of people walked along the Chaoshou Corridor in a circuitous way. Outside the corridor, the branches were full of magnolias, which were shining brightly.
Princess Zhenbei explained: "Second aunt's grandma loves exotic flowers and herbs the most. They were all planted by her before she came out of the palace. Although she no longer lives here, there are still people in the house who take care of it every day. So as not to waste
Got these things that I put a lot of thought into. "
Be obedient, Tingyin'er, Princess Zhenbei will not mention this second aunt unless necessary.
Ruan continued: "There are few people living in the house, and the old lady specially asked people to take care of these flowers and plants, which shows that she loves and misses this second aunt."
Of the three sons and two daughters born to Mrs. Gongsun, the eldest son and youngest daughter are the most favored.
The eldest son's marriage was not satisfactory. For the other children, the old lady found marriages for them that she thought were very good.
Princess Zhenbei smiled and said, "That's right. My second aunt's husband's family is in the capital. It's just that she has been following her husband, who is a local magistrate, in office. She was transferred back to the capital just this year and is waiting for the appointment documents from the Ministry of Personnel."
Li Qingyi's brows jumped when he heard this.
As soon as the Fourth Prince's incident came out, many officials were involved.
In addition, Wei Shicheng entered the cabinet, and the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel became vacant. If the appointment has been planned before, it may come to nothing.
I don’t know which kind of husband’s family this second aunt’s grandmother belongs to?
I heard Princess Zhenbei say again: "Yesterday, as soon as we arrived in Beijing, my second aunt and grandma sent us a message. Today, I took my little daughter back to the palace as soon as possible. At this moment, I am also accompanying the old lady in Jingyuntang. .”
When Li Qingyi heard this, he knew clearly that it was probably the former who was so anxious.
No wonder Princess Zhenbei specifically mentioned this matter.
The original trouble in Zhenbei Prince's Mansion was caused by the Mu family. Now that he is in trouble, the second aunt should be happy. But it happened that her husband's family had something to do with the fourth prince, and now they were implicated. She was caught in the middle. Her husband's family couldn't openly complain about her, but they were in trouble secretly.
Li Qingyi smiled secretly, fearing that the second aunt was forced by her husband's family to ask Qin Zeng for help. This time she came back to see Mrs. Gongsun for advice.
As he spoke, he arrived at the place.
I saw the courtyard of Jingyuntang from a distance, and there were a bunch of girls and women standing at the door.
When a maid in yellow saw Princess Zhenbei leading the people, she smiled, saluted them, and said, "The old lady and the second aunt are waiting in the house."
Princess Zhenbei nodded, passed over the others, and raised the curtain herself.
The maid in yellow looked at her in surprise and reported softly at the door: "Old madam, Mrs. Li and Miss Li have arrived."
Li Qingyi heard a stereotyped voice say: "Let them all come in."
There were not many people in the room, but those standing and sitting all looked towards the door for a while.
The moment he saw Li Qingyi, all kinds of eyes including surprise, curiosity, and inquiry gathered together in an instant, like ice knives and frost swords, trying to peel her away and take a closer look.
