The concubine Jiaojiao has high means, but the sick prince does not flirt

Chapter 223 Backyard Secret
This sentence woke up the dreamer, and Bai Zhi echoed in surprise: "Why didn't I think of this? It should be like this. It's not their first time. As expected, Chun's mother has been transferred to a safe place by the third prince. We have a place, including those girls. They are all witnesses, and the third prince absolutely does not want them to fall into our hands, so the case is settled so quickly. It seems reasonable, but it is not."

"Zhi'er, do you think this Yiren Pavilion also has a secret passage leading to the back garden of the inn?" Shen Changyan thought of this question again.

Bai Zhi agreed: "I think it's entirely possible. Let's go to Mother Chun's room and look for it again."

But the two of them searched in Chun's mother's room for a long time but couldn't find the tunnel entrance, so they couldn't help wondering if they made a mistake in judgment.

Bai Zhi felt a little depressed. The search failed. She was very unwilling, but she had no choice.

So she went to the backyard to relax, get some fresh air, and then search the other rooms again.

The houses in Yiren Pavilion are relatively small, dark inside, and the lighting is not good, although it feels depressing to be inside people in broad daylight.

The chicken coop in the backyard was indeed empty, and even the flowers and plants were removed by the slave women of Yiren Pavilion before they left.

The things that couldn't be moved were scattered on the ground in a crooked manner. At first glance, it looked like they had been robbed by bandits.

Bai Zhi unconsciously smiled coldly, this was really a tree falling and the hozen dispersed, but it was not known whether it really dispersed.

She wandered around the backyard carelessly, just to relieve her depression and unwillingness.

Shen Changyan stood at the door of the back hall, watching her quietly, without stepping forward to disturb her, he understood her mood at this moment.

"Long word, come quickly."

Suddenly Bai Zhi screamed and waved at Shen Changyan.

Shen Changyan was puzzled, and hurried over: "What's the matter, Zhi'er?"

"Did you see this rockery?" Bai Zhi whispered, whispering.

Shen Changyan followed the direction she indicated, observed carefully, and found that there was something strange about the rockery. The stone in the middle seemed to have a different color from the other stones, and it was isolated.

"Zhi'er, do you suspect this fake mountain?"

Bai Zhi nodded slightly, but lowered her voice and said: "Ignore it now, come back in the evening."

Shen Changyan understood what she meant, and told her with his eyes that he completely agreed.

Immediately, the two of them discussed about continuing to search Yiren Pavilion as if nothing had happened, and their faces were red and hot. There were no walls or darkrooms, so the two had no choice but to give up.

Returning from Yiren Pavilion to Shen Guogong's mansion, Bai Zhi and Shen Changyan felt that the atmosphere in the mansion was not right.

I asked the servants if anything had happened in the house, and they all said it was fine and everything was normal.

But the two just felt that something must have happened, but they kept it from them.

So Bai Zhi asked Yin Tan first, Yin Tan repeatedly stated that he was in the courtyard, preparing for the young lady to marry, but did not go anywhere.

She also asked with a look of surprise and worry: "Miss, what happened? In three days, it will be your wedding day with Shi Ziye, won't it be delayed?"

Seeing that she really didn't know, Bai Zhi smiled at her comfortingly: "It should be okay, we just came back from outside, but I feel that the atmosphere at home seems to be different today, so ask, since it's okay, that's good , you can do what you should be busy with. Let's go to the upper room to have a look."

Then she and Shen Changyan came to the upper room, and went in quietly without letting the servant girl tell.

Mrs. Shen was sitting on the couch doing embroidery work, when she heard the movement, she suddenly raised her head, and saw the two of them approaching in unison, she couldn't help being surprised, and hurriedly asked: "Zhi'er, Chang Yan, why are you here?"

Seeing her reaction, Bai Zhi once again realized that something must have happened.

If it weren't for her showing up even at a time when they shouldn't be there, she should be so surprised.

However, she did not ask, but pretended to be calm and smiled softly: "I went to Grandma Bai's house with Chang Yan. Because something happened on the way, I had someone send the embroidery back first. Have you seen it?" No."

Mrs. Shen put down her embroidery work, took her hand, gestured for her to come to her side, and said with a friendly smile: "I see, Grandma Bai's embroidery is so good, like the craftsmanship of a royal embroiderer. Zhi'er is a kind girl, and she always You can make good friends. Zhi'er, is Bai You okay?"

Bai Zhi nodded and replied, "Bai You is fine, and has gone home. Grandma Bai used to be the embroiderer in the palace."

Mrs. Shen suddenly smiled and said: "No wonder, I don't think her embroidery techniques are like folk embroidery skills. It's just suitable for you to use when you get married."

Bai Zhi then told her that Grandma Bai said that Mrs. Shen had bought hydrangea at her stall and that Grandpa Bai was once Shen Guogong's military attendant.

Mrs. Shen couldn't remember who Granny Bai and Grandpa Bai were.

Bai Zhi hurriedly laughed and said: "Maybe it's been too long, and I don't know him personally, so I don't have any impression. Mrs. Shen, how are things at home these days? Why do I see that the servant's face is not as usual, and there is no smile on her face?" ?”

When Mrs. Shen heard this, she did not deny it, but asked: "Zhi'er, what did you hear?"

Now Bai Zhi is really sure that something happened at home.

She shook her head and replied: "The servants said it's all right, but Chang Yan and I always feel that there is something wrong, so please tell Madam if you have something to say."

"Zhi'er, nothing happened. The servants may have been tired of helping you prepare for your marriage these days. In fact, time is a bit tight, and I have a lot of thoughts, and I want the best for everything. It's not me. I have made embroidery by myself, not to mention the embroiderers in the mansion, they have been staying up all night to make all kinds of embroidery. You and me who are long-talking do it, and there are many other things used."

Mrs. Shen spoke calmly, as if nothing really happened.

But Bai Zhi still saw some unconcealable bad mood and exhaustion in her eyes.

Madam Shen didn't say anything, so she didn't bother to ask any more questions.

The two sat in Mrs. Shen's room for a while, talked a little, and then took their leave.

Su Zhu sent the two of them outside the gate of the courtyard.

Bai Zhi suddenly took Su Zhu's hand, and said urgently and sincerely: "My dear sister, can you tell us quietly what happened in the mansion? Why did Madam order everyone to keep it from us? coming?"

Shen Changyan also echoed from the side: "Su Zhu, mother may have had her concerns in hiding this from us, but it may not be right. After all, things happened, no matter who it is about or what, multiple people have multiple powers, It can be resolved through discussion and discussion together. You should also understand our two personalities. We are not afraid of trouble, and we will not make trouble. We are both very sensible. Please tell me."

Su Zhu looked at the expectant eyes of the two people and felt a little panicked: "No, no..."
