Danyang was completely unprepared and was startled by Zizhu's shout in his ear.
When I was confused, I turned around and saw eyes full of worry, as if I was about to cry the next moment.
After being stunned for a moment, she suddenly realized, shook her head with a helpless smile, and raised her hand to tap Zizhu's forehead.
"You, if you have time to think about random things, you might as well focus on doing your errands."
Zizhu covered her forehead where she was knocked, and carefully confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Princess Danyang, and then said aggrievedly:
"What are your orders?"
Princess Danyang's expression turned serious at this time, she gently stroked her sleeve pocket and said in a deep voice:
"There is something I want you to inquire about. Remember not to attract attention, and it is best not to leave any traces."
The sudden heavy atmosphere reminded Zizhu of the princess's irresistible appearance before dawn this morning.
And at this moment, she had no idea of refuting, so she immediately listened to Princess Danyang's whispered order.
After Danyang sent Zizhu away on errands, he closed the doors and windows himself, picked up the light and returned to the inner room, then took out the jade pendant and letter paper that had been in his sleeve pocket for almost a day.
The jade pendant still carried her body temperature and shone with a crystal-clear luster under the candlelight. It was extraordinary at first sight. Not to mention the four-clawed dragon carved on it, a pattern that only princes and kings can wear.
And now, after careful inspection in the candlelight, Danyang confirmed that there was water bladder in the jade pendant, and he was even more convinced.
This is a status symbol that can only be worn by the direct descendants of the royal family of all dynasties. It is almost as important as the seals of the kings - Panlong Pei!
Only the recognized heirs of the princes and kings can choose from the previous princes and kings, and it is a special accessory that will be handed over when they are officially canonized.
But the situation of Prince Anyang is quite special. The old prince of the previous generation fell ill and died too hastily, probably because he was afraid that he would not be able to wait for the imperial edict and the jade pendant would be lost when the prince succeeded to the throne, so he gave it to his son before going through the procedures.
Unexpectedly, this thing would eventually become a talisman that killed his son, Prince Anyang, in his previous life.
But just like Danyang's intuitive feeling when he first saw this jade pendant in the elegant room, putting such an important thing in the theater? And no one is watching!
This conspiracy smell of frame-up cannot be stronger, can it?
In other words, should the other two letters be the evidence that finally made her wise emperor uncle make up his mind to identify the suspect?
While analyzing, Danyang put down the jade pendant and picked up two pieces of slightly yellowed letter paper of unknown material on the side.
Unfortunately, what appeared on the unfolded letter paper were not words she recognized. A kind of code or traces of other words were scrawled on it, and there were only a few lines.
Just when Danyang was slightly disappointed, she subconsciously rubbed the letter paper between her fingertips.
And the next moment, her whole body suddenly stopped.
This kind of feel...
Feeling it carefully, she found that the hand of the letter paper had a subtle touch similar to the leather of a riding crop. But overall, it should be softer and more pliable. If you look carefully, you will see that it still has a slightly greasy sheen under the candlelight.
As she unfolded the letter, she curiously took it to the tip of her nose and sniffed it. There was also a faint, unprocessed, cheese-like smell.
Danyang took the letter away and stared deeply at it, his brows furrowed tightly.
She was just afraid that she was involved in something terrible.
But regretting it at this time will not help.
Danyang closed his eyes tightly for a moment, and when he opened them again, he had neatly folded the letter and put it away with the jade pendant.
There are still many things to do, so take your time and do each one carefully, carefully and carefully!
After cheering himself up from the bottom of his heart, Danyang blew out the candle, got up, put on his clothes, and lay down on the bed with the curtains hanging low, closing his eyes and meditating.

Princess's Mansion, Governor's Hall.
Every morning, all the stewards would gather here, waiting for reports or to receive cards and run errands. As soon as they stepped into the threshold, they couldn't help but gather in a circle in twos and threes and start whispering to each other.
"Have you heard? The demon king in our mansion is going to start learning how to be a master!"
"Tsk, the spoiled eldest lady dares to start learning right away... Hey, are our eldest princess doting on our daughter too much?"
"There are rules for doing things on weekdays. I think even if the princess wants to learn from being in charge of a house, she still doesn't break the rules. Isn't it going to make the whole house restless?"
In fact, it is reasonable for people's hearts to fluctuate.
The Princess Mansion is neither big nor small.
Although there are only three serious masters in the mansion, there are also hundreds of servants who need to maintain daily food, drink, operation, internal and external affairs and other chores.
And if you want everything to run smoothly, a set of rules and regulations is naturally indispensable.
Before that, when the eldest princess got married and left the palace to open a mansion, there was a time when she personally took charge of the family affairs.
But because she was weak and later became pregnant, she handed over the power to the old lady of Zhenguo Palace, the mother-in-law of the eldest princess Qinghe, sent by Aunt Feng.
After that, the Princess Mansion, which originally had few servants, gradually became the aristocratic family that now has over a hundred people.
In other words, in fact, most of the rules in the princess mansion were slowly formulated after Nanny Feng was sent.
On weekdays, because the eldest princess is not in good health, ordinary trivial matters will not bother her. That is to say, the stewards rarely have to go to the eldest princess to take orders.
As time went by, the prestige of Princess Qinghe gradually declined. In the end, it became a situation where all the big and small officials in the princess's house almost only knew that Nanny Feng was a strong-willed figure, but they didn't know that the "real son" was the eldest princess Qinghe.
In addition, Princess Danyang has been favored by all parties since she was born, and the impression that she is just a little girl who has not grown up is naturally deeply rooted in people's hearts. It is inevitable that everyone will be dissatisfied and worried.
Just as everyone was whispering to each other and the uneasy atmosphere became more and more widespread, the middle door of the Governor's Hall suddenly rumbling, and slowly opened completely amidst the creaking sound of being unused for a long time and the attention of everyone.
Due to the solemnity of the Governor's Hall, although it is only a small courtyard upon entering, there are five steps inside and outside the main entrance.
Therefore, although everyone was startled and turned around, they did not see anyone entering or leaving the door for a moment.
But you don’t have to think about it, everyone knows it.
In the princess's mansion, the only people who can enter the governor's hall with great fanfare are the eldest princess Qinghe, the true master, and the only blood relative who is appointed to take charge of the family affairs, Princess Danyang.
but--
This is really, really grand!
While everyone was sighing, some people accidentally caught a glimpse of the sky which was still fish-belly white, and secretly thought in their hearts, this little girl can get up early. Could it be that she is just trying to be fresh, or that the new official is taking office as a thorn in the side?
At this moment, a burst of neat footsteps approached.
Everyone was wondering how many servants were following Princess Danyang, but when it came time to make a grand spectacle, they didn't want to...
A team of four muscular maids dressed in pink and blue robes, identically dressed, carried red sandalwood shoulder carriages, with uniform steps and majestic spirit. They were carrying pink and jade-like porcelain dolls, Princess Danyang. Crossed the threshold.
