Resourceful beauty

Chapter 18 Plan ahead
"What the hell..."

Looking at Fang Ruxuan's back, Su Yuan said angrily: "Mother Zhao, do you think those people are unreliable? There are no more than five people who handled that document, and the things we brought out are not even Ruyu and the rest of the siblings don't know about it, but how does she know about this little girl?"

On the side, Nanny Zhao stared deeply into the distance, and muttered with some anxiety: "I heard that the cell is very dark. Miss Six was imprisoned in Jiangbei Water Prison and Funan City Prison for a month. Princess, you said, yes Isn't it possessed by a ghost?"

Su Yuan was startled, and grabbed the armrest with both hands.

It is said that ghost eyes reach the sky, if Fang Ruxuan is really possessed by ghosts and spirits, wouldn't she know what she has done or what she will do in the future?

She only felt the hairs on her back standing up one by one, and the cold wind was blowing in. Su Yuan felt a little creepy, but immediately turned her head and glared at Mother Zhao, saying, "How dare you say something like that?" I don’t believe that there is a god standing three feet above my head, but she can cure my head.”

After finishing speaking, Su Yuan stood up and hurriedly entered the inner hall.

That anxious look, as if someone was chasing after him.

On the other side, Fang Ruxuan returned to Shu Yuxuan contentedly.

Calling Ding Xiang, Fang Ruxuan asked: "I remember, there is an older brother in your family, right?"

Speaking of her elder brother, Ding Xiang's expression was slightly sad.

There are four members of Ding Xiang's family, both father and mother are dutiful peasants, the elder brother Ding Hai is two years older than Ding Xiang, and he is the most honest, the relationship between the two brothers and sisters is very good.

When Ding Xiang was seven years old and Ding Hai was nine years old, the two brothers and sisters went to the mountains to collect firewood. Ding Xiang saw a wounded little squirrel on the tree, and felt compassion for a moment.

Ding Hai volunteered to go up the tree to save the little squirrel, but when he came down, he slipped and fell down the tree, and hit the back of his head heavily on the rocks under the tree.

The family did not have enough money to treat Ding Hai, so Ding Xiang was sold to a human tooth, and then entered Qi Wang's mansion.

After that incident, Ding Hai suffered from sequelae. Although he is not stupid, his reactions are slower than ordinary people. Now he is seventeen, and there is no one in the village who even talks about marriage.

In the previous life, Fang Ruxuan didn't know what happened to Ding Hai in the end, but she had seen that honest young man, always with a simple and honest smile.

Since he is not stupid, Fang Ruxuan believes that as long as he is given a chance to practice, he will become smarter sooner or later.

Ding Xiang was sad for a while, and replied with a smile, "Although my elder brother is not as smart as others, he is full of strength. He does all the work at home. Before coming to Beijing last year, my parents said that my elder brother wants to do more in spring." Plant a few acres of land."

Fang Ruxuan hesitated for a moment, but finally, she couldn't help but asked, "Ding Xiang, if you let your brother do things for me, would you be willing?"

Ding Xiang didn't understand a little bit: My lady is in the inner house, so what needs someone outside to do?Besides, my brother is not smooth and capable.

Knowing that there will be more and more things about her in the future, she can hide it from others, but she can't hide it from the two maids who are closest to her, Fang Ruxuan tells the whole story of what she is going to do next.

Su Ye was the first to react, and said with a surprised face: "Miss, what do you mean, you want Brother Ding Hai to go to Miss Chen, and then rescue Jin Suan from the prison in Funan City?"

Seeing Fang Ruxuan nodded, Ding Xiang didn't close her mouth for a long while.

These days, they had gotten used to Fang Ruxuan's rebellion against her former wisdom, but what Fang Ruxuan said now was not only smart, but also bold.

But by Fang Ruxuan's side, the two maidservants have also seen the world. The situation in Prince Qi's mansion is not good, and King Qi and Fang Zhengjun are not in the mansion. If Fang Ruxuan has no means of her own, sooner or later she will be killed by Su Yuanmu Female bullies don't even have bones left.

Following my young lady, my elder brother is stupid, but I don't have to farm in the wind and sun, and my parents can be more leisurely, which is much better than before.

Ding Xiang looked at Fang Ruxuan with some excitement, "Miss, what do you want to do, I will send a message to my family right away, so that my brother will not waste his energy by plowing more fields."

Fang Ruxuan took out the banknotes she asked for from Su Yuan just now from her sleeve, handed them to Ding Xiang and said, "In addition to the silver in our hands, you take all of them to Sister Mei. I told her what to do before I came." That's it. When the time comes, let your brother go to find Wang Gui in the prison in Funan City. He and Wang Gui can just run errands according to Sister Mei's instructions. I will make other arrangements in the future. "

Including what I have in my hand, there are more than 400 taels of silver in total.

Ding Xiang asked with some apprehension: "Miss, is it all?"

"Yes, all."

Fang Ruxuan said categorically.

Without asking any further questions, Ding Xiang took the bank note from Fang Ruxuan, turned around and went into the house.

After a while, she came out and replied: "Miss, the four little maids in the courtyard are all from Jiangbei. The slaves and Su Ye have been training for more than a year, and they can be used in the house in the future. Among them , Mohe is the oldest and the safest to do things, and these days when the slaves are not around, let her come in to serve."

In Shu Yuxuan, there are only two first-class maids, Ding Xiang and Su Ye, and the second-class maids, who have been injured and fled in the past few months, and none of them are left.

Of the twelve third-class maidservants, there are only four left now, and the others were brought in by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so I don't know if they are reliable or not.

Fang Ruxuan nodded.

Early the next morning, Ding Xiang left the house with her burden on her back.

However, in the distance, there was a tail behind him.

In the Yixin Palace, Su Yuan instructed Qiu Tong: "Tell him, stay close and keep an eye on him. I want to see what she wants to do after defrauding me of so much money. "

After waking up in the afternoon, Fang Ruxuan took Su Ye to Shanshui Pavilion.

Shanshui Pavilion is King Qi's study.

Seeing that Fang Ruxuan was not looking for books from the bookshelf, but was looking for something in the desk drawer, Su Ye was a little curious.

After a while, Fang Ruxuan opened a booklet with surprise and read it.

That's the list of King Qi's attendants.

"Miss wants to hire someone?"

Probe glanced a few times, saw that it was full of densely packed names, and then thought of Ding Xiang going home to find his brother, Su Ye seemed to understand a little bit.

Looking at Su Ye appreciatively, Fang Ruxuan replied: "There are no available people in the palace now, and if there are, they are all from the princess's side, so we need our own people."

Su Ye nodded with flickering eyes, and didn't ask herself what the lady did with these people.

"Miss, this servant has a younger brother who is 13 years old this year. If you can use him, don't forget about this servant."

Su Ye fawned over Fang Ruxuan's sleeve.

Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, Fang Ruxuan nodded.

On the other side, knowing that Fang Ruxuan had entered the Shanshui Pavilion, and there were maids guarding outside, Su Yuan instructed Qiu Tong and Qiu Shuang behind her, "Find two clever little maids, and keep an eye on them for twelve hours a day. Fang Ruxuan, look at what she does every day and who she meets."

Although Fang Ruxuan didn't do anything these days, Su Yuan felt a little uneasy in her heart, always feeling that she was planning something.

Qiu Tong and Qiu Shuang agreed and made the arrangements.

Coming out of the Shanshui Pavilion, Fang Ruxuan silently recited the names and addresses of the people in her heart several times. When she walked to Shuyuxuan, she just passed the Chuihua Gate when she saw Fang Ruyu coming towards her, followed by Fang Ruhui and Fang Ruhua .

"Second sister, fourth sister, fifth sister..."

Nodding her head and smiling, she said hello, Fang Ruxuan turned sideways to leave.

Fang Ruhui stretched out her hand to hold Fang Ruxuan's hand, "Sixth Sister, I haven't seen you for a while, but you are as quiet as before and love to read. No wonder Father likes you."

This kind of Fang Ruhui put away her sharp teeth and sharp mouth, Fang Ruxuan felt a little uncomfortable.

"I don't know what advice Fifth Sister has?"

Fang Ruxuan pulled back her sleeves calmly, turned her head and asked Fang Ruhui.

Fang Ruhui and Fang Ruxuan were born in the same year, Fang Ruhui was born in February, and Fang Ruxuan was born in June. However, Fang Ruhui was always called Fang Ruxuan by her first name. Today, she is usually called "Sixth Sister", but this is the first time she has ever met.

"I can't talk about advice. However, I want to know what happened during these days in the prison, which caused the Sixth Sister's disposition to change drastically. She is no longer as gentle and obedient as before."

Fang Ruhui's eyes were fixed on Fang Ruxuan, as if she wanted to see her heart.

What happened that night resurfaced in Fang Ruxuan's mind, and Fang Ruxuan's heart skipped a beat, and she involuntarily clenched her hands tightly in her armholes.

With a slight smile, Fang Ruxuan took a step forward, and said in a low voice: "It's just that people who committed serious crimes were locked up together, robbed food every day, got into a fight when they got into trouble, and dragged the jailer out to smoke for a while. It's nothing more than a trivial matter like whipping the whip, why, Fifth Sister wants to know? Or, go to Shu Yuxuan and have my sister tell her in detail?"

People's imagination is always more frightening. Fang Ruhui imagined a group of men in ragged clothes and hideous faces gathered around to grab a dry steamed bun to eat.

Fang Ruxuan reached out to grab her hand and it was cold, Fang Ruhui backed away in shock, calling out repeatedly: "No, I don't want to..."

Fang Ruxuan smiled in satisfaction, glanced at Fang Ruyu and Fang Ruhua who had been silent all this time, and said, "Since that's the case, my sister will take a step first."

After finishing speaking, Fang Ruxuan turned her head and left.

Behind her, Fang Ruhua said in a clear voice: "Second Sister, I think there must be something that happened in the prison that Sixth Sister doesn't want to mention."

At the moment Fang Ruhui mentioned, there was a flash of fear in Fang Ruxuan's eyes. Although she settled down in an instant, it was that pretended calm that made it more intriguing.

Fang Ruyu was silent for a while, with a calculating smile on his face.
