"Why are they?" The princess frowned.
"We don't know yet."
Aunt Wu helped the princess go to the garden. When she saw no one nearby, she whispered, "Su Liuye and the others live in Dongcheng District. There is a house over there that belongs to Master Xiao. But we haven't found out what happened between them and the elder." What is the relationship between the young master..." At this point, Nanny Wu was a little worried, "Princess, Su Liuye is beautiful, and the young master is not usually a womanizer. This time, the young master brought her with him. Beijing, could it be because she has a close relationship with the young master?"
Mother Wu's words were very clear, and the princess's face turned dark when she heard them.
If this were the case, Chu Yan would not take her seriously now.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Grandma Wu sighed and didn't say anything.
After waiting for a while, the princess said leisurely, "Mother Wu, get ready. I'm going to the east side of the city to have a look."
"Princess, do you want to find Su Liuye?" Nanny Wu immediately understood what she meant.
"I'm going to find out where this woman came from." The fifth princess' voice was slightly stunned, "First it was Zhou Yun'er, and now it's Yan'er."
Mother Wu understood what the princess meant and asked the maid to prepare the carriage. Taking advantage of the snow not falling so heavily today, the carriage leisurely arrived outside the gate of the house.
Looking at the closed door of the house, the fifth princess asked, "Is Yan'er living here now?"
"No. Princess, the eldest young master has been with Master Xiao since he came to the capital..." Speaking of this, Mother Wu paused for a moment, "I don't know where the eldest young master has gone, and I don't dare to If you investigate too much, I'm afraid the young master will find out."
"Mommy, do you really think Yan'er doesn't know anything?"
Aunt Wu had indeed been with her for a long time, but she was just a woman in the backyard. In terms of real means, she could not compare to Chu Yan.
Now that Mother Wu can continue to investigate, it can only mean that what she knows is what Chu Yan is willing to let her know.
After waiting outside the house for a long time, no one was seen coming in or out. The fifth princess was not in a position to go down to check, so she had to ask Nanny Wu to go back first, leaving a maid here to watch. If there was any news, tell her immediately.
"This slave knows."
The maid wrapped her robe tightly and walked all the way to a nearby stall after getting off the carriage. She ordered a bowl of hot noodles and sat there waiting.
Seeing that it was getting dark soon, Su Liuye and Qin Lian came back from outside carrying large and small bags.
Before entering, Qin Lian saw Liu Yuan and Zhang Shan eating noodles at a nearby stall.
She became angry when she saw these two people, and quickly followed Su Liuye back to put away her things. Then she found an excuse to come out. When she went to the front door, she asked Liu Yuan angrily, "Why haven't you gone back today?"
Liu Yuan has been loitering in the house for several days. He had always said he would leave tomorrow, but he is still here now!
"Miss Qin, the young master and I just came back—"
Before Zhang Shan finished speaking, Qin Lian glared at him angrily. She was so frightened that she quickly closed her mouth, huddled beside her and finished the noodles quickly, and ran away immediately, fearing that she would be scolded if she ran too slowly.
"Why are you so fierce? I just came back. I have been running outside all day." Liu Yuan looked at her with a smile, and he couldn't tell that she was tired at all.
"What does your running around outside all day have to do with me? I ask you when to leave!" Qin Lian suppressed her anger, "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, don't you want to stay until the Chinese New Year?"
"Why not?" Liu Yuan raised his eyebrows, looking like a rogue.
Qin Lian was holding back anger in her heart. She really didn't expect that she would lead a wolf into the house. This person didn't want to leave after he got involved.
"No, you have to-"
"Don't be impatient, just listen to me."
Qin Lian was about to chase the person away when Liu Yuan grabbed his raised hand, pulled the person to sit next to him, and asked the stall owner to serve him another bowl of hot and painful noodle soup.
By chance, Liu Yuan caught a glimpse of the maid sitting not far away, sneaking around and seeming to be eavesdropping.
Probably sensing his gaze, the maid ate the noodles stiffly.
Liu Yuan looked at it for a while before looking back, a trace of ridicule flashing through his heart.
The Liu Mansion did have business relations with the Fifth Prince's Mansion, so he knew that the servants attached to the Fifth Prince's Mansion were dressed very similarly to the maid not far away. There should be no second Five Prince's Mansion in the capital.
He raised his lips and pretended not to see the maid and said, "You must have heard about it, right? Princess Kangle insulted the people on the street. This matter has spread throughout the capital, and the fifth princess also took the initiative with County Kangle because of this matter. angry."
"Really?" Qin Lian was stunned, and quickly looked at the people around her suspiciously, "Why do you know about this?"
Of course she knew about this, but she didn't expect that the fifth princess would be angry about it and scold Zhou Yun'er. She thought that the palace would do everything possible to protect her.
Because the Fifth Prince's Palace accepted Zhou Yun'er as the princess, this palace was no longer a good existence in her eyes.
"Of course I know. There is nothing in the capital that I don't know." Liu Yuan blinked and said, "If you don't want the fifth princess to help Zhou Yun'er, I have a way to help you."
"What method? How on earth do you know so many things?"
Qin Lian became more and more suspicious. In her eyes, Liu Yuan was just a gangster, but she didn't know why he knew a lot about the palace.
"Don't ask about this for now, just tell me if you want to or not." Liu Yuandao, "Princess Kangle's insults to the people have already reached the ears of some ministers. Not long ago, the fifth princess once angered the emperor because of her contempt for the royal bloodline. , even the Fifth Prince has some criticisms about this."
"This Princess Kangle is the biological daughter she found later. If her biological daughter has such a character, the emperor will definitely anger her again. Therefore, the fifth princess will definitely try her best to help Princess Kangle."
"Do you want the Fifth Princess to intervene?"
Liu Yuan asked after some analysis.
Qin Lian heard the same truth and couldn't help but ask, "What does it mean to despise the royal bloodline?"
Liu Yuandao said, "The first child born to the fifth princess was indeed a baby girl, who later became the princess. But the fifth princess said she didn't pay attention at the time and asked the midwife to change the child and replace it with a boy. The fifth princess was too weak at the time and did not see clearly the gender of the child, so she has been raising the baby boy for so many years."
"Because of his literary and military skills, the baby boy quickly gained the emperor's respect. Later, he followed the fifth prince and made meritorious service on the border. After returning to Beijing, the emperor gave him the title of heir apparent."
"Everything was going well, but at this moment, the fifth princess became pregnant again and gave birth to a baby boy."
