The Rebirth of the First Daughter as the Head of the Family

"So, please trouble the princess!"

Master Du made a bow, then looked at Madam, motioning for her to go with her.

Shen Shi wanted to stop it, it can be seen that Mrs. Du had already handled everything properly, so she didn't know how to stop it for a while.

In order to avoid suspicion, Master Du went to the front hall to wait.

The things I think are naturally in Miss Song's hands, I'm afraid something went wrong.

Only then did I go to the front hall to wait in peace.

The fifth prince, He Yuanzhu, did not come to the banquet today because of the etiquette, but sent someone and sent two heavy betrothal gifts.

He still doesn't know about these things that happened in the Duke's Mansion.

Because Song Jinxi was inside the house, she didn't know what was going on outside.

Song Jinyue didn't order anyone to invite her, but led Mrs. Du directly to Song Jinxi's courtyard.

Seeing them leaving, Mrs. Shen hurried into the house and called her daughter to go with her.

Song Jinyue winked at Qiu Yun, signaling her to bring the servants of Ming Zhuxuan.

She took Mrs. Du to Song Jinxi's courtyard, and Qiu Yun trotted all the way with her.

The maidservants in Song Jinxi's courtyard were having a dispute with Song Jinyue's maidservants, so Shen Shi rushed over with her daughter.

"Everyone can't do without the rules, like this, it can't be done without paying attention to the rules of the mansion!" Shen scolded.

Everyone was frightened and hurriedly knelt down on the ground, shivering and trembling.

"Get out of the way, don't stop today, if anyone stops, let Xi'er gossip, and sell the house together!"

Shen slammed the ground loudly, and everyone retreated to the sides to make way.

"Thank you." Mrs. Du walked up to Mrs. Shen, thanked her, and then ordered people to enter the house to search.

Song Jinxi turned sideways and tugged at her mother's sleeve, her eyes full of worry.

At the beginning, in order to frame Song Jinyue, she specially chose the moon-white brocade that everyone in the capital's official and female families had for the witchcraft doll.

At that time, I didn't know the plan of the late emperor and all the officials to pray for blessings.

Later, when I learned about this, the thing had already been buried in the Ming Zhuxuan, so I simply let it go and never moved it.

Who would have expected that such a disaster would be planted.

If it wasn't for the cloth in Song Jinyue's hands, how could she have faced the trap of revealing things?
"Mother……"

Song Jinxi's voice trembled, her eyes were slightly red, and her body trembled slightly.

"Don't be afraid." Shen comforted her daughter in a low voice, holding her hand tightly.

At this moment, Shen only wanted to protect her daughter comprehensively, and she didn't have the heart to think about anything else.

It was because she didn't think carefully about this matter before that she was caught.

Not long after, Mrs. Du's nanny came out of the house with a group of maidservants, and saw that nanny was holding a moon-white brocade cloth in her hand.

When Song Jinxi saw the cloth being searched out again, her heart skipped a beat, her feet were weak and she leaned against her mother's arms.

There was anxiety in his eyes, as if a heart was about to jump out of his throat.

The nanny stopped in front of Mrs. Du, knelt on the ground, offered the cloth in her hand, and replied respectfully: "Ma'am, the thing has been found."

Madam Du nodded slightly, then looked at Miss Song, and asked aloud: "Miss Song, dare I ask, is this cloth a gift from your mother?"

Song Jinxi was at a loss, she couldn't hear Madam Du's voice for a long time, she only looked at her mother, asking for help.

Shen looked at her daughter with distress and sadness, looked at Mrs. Du, and answered for her daughter: "Mrs. Du, this is the palace gift I gave to my little girl."

"Then I'll show it to my master first, Mrs. Shen, Miss Song, I'm sorry."

Mrs. Du left with a group of people, and the maidservants in the courtyard huddled and hid in the corridor, all of them buried their heads very low, as if they were afraid of being seen by Shen's mother and daughter.

"Mother, let me go to the front hall to greet Mrs. Du for mother." Song Jinyue saluted and said goodbye.

Shen looked at each other angrily.

When Song Jinyue was no longer in sight, Song Jinxi hesitated to speak, and snuggled into her mother's arms.

"Mother……"

Shen shook her head slightly, signaling her not to say anything, and then helped her daughter into the house.

Mama Zhao was watching outside, and there was no one else in the house except Mrs. Shen's mother and daughter.

Mrs. Du led the nanny into the front hall of the Duke's Mansion, and Song Jinyue followed behind Mrs. Du.

Mrs. Du saw the moon-white brocade cloth at a glance, waited for the nanny to present the cloth in front of the road, inspected it carefully, and compared it with the cloth given to Miss Song by the princess today.

It is confirmed that these two pieces of brocade are actually one.

Ask someone to measure the size.

The piece of brocade brought out from Miss Song's house was exactly one foot short, and the clothes on the witchcraft doll also happened to be one foot short.

Master Du asked someone to bring the brocade back to the City Patrol Officer, and ordered the City Patrol Officer to send it to the Duke's Mansion.

"Please ask the princess to ask Mrs. Shen and Miss Song to come out."

Master Du acted impartially, and Song Jinyue naturally agreed.

He hurriedly ordered the steward to invite Shen's mother and daughter to the front hall to answer.

In less than half a cup of tea, Shen's mother and daughter came to the front hall, but the expressions of the mother and daughter were the same, they seemed confident.

"Lord Du, I don't know why we are looking for our mother and daughter?"

Shen pretended to be confused while pretending to understand.

"Madam Shen, may I ask Miss Song that the brocade in Miss Song's hand is a foot short, and where is this foot?"

Master Du picked up the brocade, pointed to the missing part, and asked.

Shen looked at her daughter suspiciously, and asked, "Xi'er, where did this foot go?"

Song Jinxi frowned, looking deep in thought, a flash of light flashed in her eyes, she saluted, and slowly replied: "Reporting to Master Du, I used this foot to make a hand stove, just because A few years have passed, and the material is not what it looks like now."

Master Du raised his eyebrows and asked, "May I ask Miss Song to fetch the things?"

Song Jinxi had no emotion on her face, "Master Du, please wait a little longer, I'll go back and look for it, but... I'm afraid it will take some trouble. After all... it's too long ago."

Song Jinxi replied with regret on her face, after all, the brocade was used on the hand stove many years ago, I am afraid that the material has lost its original appearance, and there are no old things used by the girls in the deep house and the boudoir ?
If it was damaged, I'm afraid it would have been sent to the servants early, or thrown away.

"It's okay, I'll just wait here for Miss Song."

Mr. Du naturally guessed the intention behind Shen's mother and daughter's remarks, but he still asked Song Jinxi to find the things first.

Let's see.

If Miss Song really can't find her, it's inevitable that Shen's mother and daughter will go to the City Patrol Department.

I'm afraid I will suffer some hardships.

This time there is no need for Mrs. Shen to be in the Jingzhao Yamen, this time it is necessary to use severe torture, after all, it is related to the Empress of the Central Palace, the foundation of the country.

I just don't know, has this Shen family thought of this time?
After Song Jinxi met with everyone, she left the front hall and went back to pick it up.

Song Jinyue frowned, watching Song Jinxi leave, she always felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart, then looked at Shen Shi, and happened to meet Shen Shi's gaze looking at her.

Shen was complacent, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes.

Song Jinyue felt even more uneasy.
