In Anyuanhou's Mansion.
Wei Qingyan comforted Yan Lan and was talking to her.
Du Xueyi came over, "Yan Lan, Mrs. Gong wants to see you, are you willing to go?"
Then he looked at Wei Qingyan and said, "Why don't you go together? Mrs. Gong misses the general and is crying hard. Please help Yan Lan persuade her."
Wei Qingyan understood that he was indirectly revealing Mrs. Gong's situation and asking her to consider whether to meet her.
In my impression, the eldest sister Wei Shiran is a rich and well-maintained person.
But the woman in front of her had no makeup, her complexion was sallow, her figure was thin, her eyes were swollen from crying, and she looked haggard.
The brother-in-law next to him, Gong Mingcheng, still looked gentle and elegant, but there was a hint of tiredness in his eyes.
After Wei Qingyan looked at the two of them without leaving any trace, he saluted with Yan Lan.
Wei Shiran looked at Yan Lan, "I've heard about you. Your father took you into the Wei family. You have been in the Wei family for many years, and I can be considered your sister.
Now there are only a few servants left in the Wei family. Will you follow me back to Gong Mansion? "
Neither Wei Qingyan nor Yan Lan expected that Wei Shiran would send out such an invitation.
Neither of them reacted for a moment.
Wei Shiran glanced at her husband and continued, "This is what we discussed together on the way here. In the past, when you were in Linzhou, I couldn't take care of you. Now that you have returned to Beijing with the Luo family and Li, I can't ignore you." you."
She lowered her voice, "Otherwise, I'm afraid my brother and father will blame me."
Gong Mingcheng also nodded.
Yan Lan has no contact with Mrs. Gong. Regardless of whether her invitation today is sincere or fake, Yan Lan's heart will not be uneasy.
She has been lucky enough to receive a lot of goodwill recently and is willing to take Mrs. Gong's words as sincerity.
But it was still a blessing, "Thank you sister Wei for your kindness. It's just that I got along with Miss Chang, so it's good to live here.
After a few days, I will find someone to clean up the Yan family, and then I can go home. "
She also wanted to investigate the affairs of her brother and Qingyan with Miss Chang and others, so she was destined not to be an ordinary woman in the back house.
"Miss Chang?" Wei Shiran looked slightly surprised.
Du Xueyi hurriedly introduced Wei Qingyan to the two of them, "My sister, the one who got lost back then, is back home now."
Wei Shiran looked at her husband again and saw him nodding.
Apologizing, "I was rude. I didn't know that the girl from your house is back. I'm really sorry."
Du Xueyi looked at her dazed look and said, "No problem, no problem."
Wei Shiran then took a serious look at Wei Qingyan and saw that she was a girl with fair features.
He nodded and said to Yan Lan, "That being the case, I won't force you. If anything happens in the future, just send someone to Gong Mansion to tell me. You don't have to be polite to me."
Previously, I only thought that Du Xueyi had lost his wife, Yan Lan was a divorced person, and there were no elders in the house. It was always not good for a man and a woman to live together under the same roof.
Now that Du Xueyi's sister is here, it would be better.
She also knew that Yan Lan was not familiar with her and would not feel comfortable returning to Gong Mansion with her.
This topic was dropped, and he asked some more about Yan Lan's situation.
Finally, she said, "You are a good girl. In such a difficult situation, you still want to offer death cards to my father and brother. My sister is grateful to you.
Fortunately, that villain still has some sense of shame and knows how to kill himself. He just hates Wu Yuchu for causing my brother to be isolated and helpless and die in battle at a young age.
If I had known earlier, I should have gone to the Wu Mansion today. I should have gone to his mourning hall and spat hard. "
"Okay, okay, don't feel bad. You'll have a headache again later. My husband promises you. He will have a funeral tomorrow and I'll spit a few mouthfuls for you." Gong Mingcheng stroked his wife's shoulder and persuaded softly.
Wei Shiran raised her hand to press her temples and shook her head, "No, spitting a few times will give him an advantage. If you join Wu Yuchu and join the Wu family, if he harms my brother, even if he dies, his descendants will never even think about it." Be nice.”
"Shen, shen, shen." Gong Mingcheng agreed repeatedly, looking at his wife worriedly, "Did you do it again?"
Wei Shiran clenched his fists against his temples and clenched his teeth.
When Gong Mingcheng saw this, he knew that she was in severe pain again, and hurriedly said to Du Xueyi and others, "My wife's old illness has returned, I will take her back home first.
As for what I mentioned earlier, I hope the Marquis will communicate with me from time to time. "
He looked at Yan Lan again and said, "Your sister is telling the truth. She doesn't have any relatives in the capital now. If you have time, go to the house and walk around."
After saying that, without waiting for anyone to react, he bent down, picked the person up and walked quickly towards the door.
"What's wrong with her?" Wei Qingyan frowned slightly as he looked at the two people leaving in a hurry.
Her medical skills are not good, but she can also see that the eldest sister is very bad.
Du Xueyi sighed, "I heard that after her youngest son fell into the water two years ago, he has been sick and weak. Maybe she was worried about the child. Not long after, she also suffered from a headache. She rarely went out to socialize in the past two years."
I saw that the relationship between the general and the Gong family was not close, so I didn't say anything.
Wei Qingyan glanced at him and asked, "What is Master Gong talking to you about?"
Du Xueyi received the general's displeased look and hurriedly told the truth, "After knowing about Luo Chengzhou's blood letter, they want to investigate the evidence of Wu Yuchu's murder and avenge the general who protects the country."
Wei Qingyan remained silent.
She boasted that she had a good eye for people, and that her eldest sister and her husband didn't seem to be lying. Listening to her calling each other "di", she could feel the blood relationship and the pain of losing her brother.
However, the eldest sister was not very close to her in the past.
"Find an opportunity, let's go to her house and have a look."
She just looked at the husband and wife with some black eyes on their heads.
Yan Lan was still there, so Du Xueyi didn't want to ask more questions, so he just wrote down the matter.
Wei Qingyan asked him to send someone to keep an eye on Mrs. Wu, and then returned to Fengxiao Courtyard.
In the evening, he put on his night clothes and left the Anyuan Hou Mansion.
As soon as they arrived at Qingtai Lane, Shi Yu appeared.
"Luo Chengzhou is dead, and the prince will be the first person to be suspected. If he comes out at night, he is not afraid of being caught." Wei Qingyan glanced at the man whose hair and face were covered.
This time I knew how to hide it more.
Shi Yu smiled, "Who has evidence?"
Then he pointed at the Wei Mansion and said, "Find a secluded place. I have something to tell you."
Both of them were familiar with the Wei Mansion and soon settled in a vacant courtyard. Shi Yu informed Wei Qingyan of what he had found.
Wei Qingyan looked at Shi Yu, "Who might harm Concubine Shu?"
While Concubine Shu was giving birth, the person who harmed her was most likely the person who had arranged for the two children.
Shi Yu's eyes brightened slightly, she could always grasp the key points and explained, "At that time, there were already many people in the prince's backyard, and the rest of them had no heirs yet, so anyone could possibly murder Concubine Shu.
Those who were most likely to take action and had the ability to do so were the Crown Princess and another concubine at that time. Concubine Shu was already favored, and the birth of two children would pose the greatest threat to them.
However, the concubine is no longer here, and I have ordered people to investigate from the queen. "
The current queen is the niece of the Queen Mother, who is also Shi Yu's cousin. Many years have passed since the incident, so it is not easy to find her.
Wei Qingyan lowered his eyes, "Thank you very much."
Shi Yu's lips twitched slightly, "Going to the Wu Mansion again?"
Inexplicably feeling that Shi Yu would accompany her, Wei Qingyan chose to tell the truth, "Master Gong and his wife are a little strange, and I want to explore the situation."
Shi Yu immediately understood that it was related to mysticism, "Is there something wrong with Sister Shiran?"
"Are you familiar with Mrs. Gong?" Wei Qingyan was surprised.
I had never heard Shi Yu call eldest sister like this before.
Shi Yu's eyes were deep and he nodded slowly, "We only got to know each other after Qingyan died in the battle."
