He conspired against her in his previous life, and he flirted with her on their wedding night again
Chapter 229 Illegitimate birth
The boy drove the carriage back to the palace.
After Xie Jingyan got off the carriage, he helped Shen Wan down.
After entering the palace, Xie Jingyan hugged Shen Wan. Shen Wan didn't struggle this time. She was really tired. Moreover, at this time, the maids and servants in the palace were still out shopping for lanterns, and most of them hadn't returned home yet. .
Throughout the whole day, except for a nap, there was almost no rest. Yinshuang and Haitang prepared hot water, Shen Wan soaked in the bathtub, and fell asleep leaning against the bathtub.
When she woke up, it was already late at night. Being held in Xie Jingyan's arms, Shen Wan settled into a comfortable position in his arms and went back to sleep. When she woke up again, it was already the next morning.
Shen Wan sat on the bed and stretched. Yin Shuang entered the room with a copper basin and said, "The princess has finally woken up."
Shen Wan said, "Is there something you want to report?"
Yinshuang put down the copper basin and walked over, saying, "Princess, do you think the girl who Chen Feng sent to keep an eye on yesterday is who?"
This is the news found.
As expected of Xie Jingyan, she has never been disappointed in her work.
Seeing the gossipy look on Yinshuang's face, Shen Wan knew something in her heart. She asked, "Is she the second master's illegitimate daughter?"
Yin Shuang's eyes suddenly opened wide, "How did the princess know?"
Thinking that her princess could dream about things that had never happened, when the princess saw the girl's wishing card, she asked Chen Feng to send someone to investigate. The princess most likely knew about it a long time ago.
The princess’s dream was too powerful.
Yin Shuang helped Shen Wan get off the bed, brought the dress over and helped Shen Wan put it on, while saying, "I really thought that after the second young master died, the second master would be extinct. I didn't expect that he not only had an illegitimate daughter, but also an illegitimate daughter. He is an illegitimate child, already seven years old. The foreigner is not a serious family yet. He was redeemed from the flower house by the second master. He placed it on the road that the second master must pass from the government office back to the Hou Mansion. The old lady knew that the second master After raising the outer chamber, the second master is only allowed to visit the outer chamber twice a month, but recently the control has been loosened, and the second master goes there almost every day..."
Shen Wan had never seen the outer chamber raised by the second master in her previous life, and she really didn't know that the outer chamber's identity was so unworthy. She just accidentally asked Chen Feng to send someone to investigate, but she didn't expect to find so much useful information.
Last night, Shen Wan asked Chen Feng to send someone to follow the girl, so Chen Feng sent a secret guard to do this. The secret guard followed the girl shopping for a few days and went back after being tired.
The outer room lived in a courtyard with three entrances. There were servants in the outer courtyard and maids and women in the inner courtyard. The outer room was quite content with such a day, but the girl was dissatisfied. After going around the lanterns, she left When she met Shen Wan at the lantern festival, she told her concubine's wife that she was full of envy and jealousy and wanted to recognize her ancestor as soon as possible.
The outer room said, "Please wait patiently. Your father's legitimate son died unexpectedly, and there is no other son under his knees. The old lady has already relaxed a little. It is estimated that you and your brother will be taken back soon. The rules of a wealthy family are Duo, if you really enter the Hou Mansion, you must be careful in your words and deeds, and you must not be indulgent and willful..."
The outer room started to warn me, but the girl listened impatiently, "I don't know when daddy will send someone to pick us up. I'm telling you now. When we get into Pingyang Marquis Mansion, it won't be too late for mother to tell my daughter."
The outer room smiled bitterly and said, "My mother's status is unworthy and will make your father criticized. The old lady will not let my mother in..."
The secret guard hid outside the window and listened to every word that the mother and daughter spoke to each other.
When the second master had a legitimate son, the old lady would not notice an illegitimate son, but with Shen Li gone, the second master didn't even have a bastard, and the illegitimate son was also rare.
The second wife is jealous and controls the second master very strictly. The second master is also under her control. Occasionally, if she complains, the old lady also turns to the second wife. The second wife feels that the old lady is sincerely doing her best, respects the old lady very much, and believes that she The charioteer is a skilled charioteer, but he is first slapped in the face by Hongkui's pregnancy. The second wife must know that the second master raised a foreign wife more than ten years ago, and the foreign wife gave birth to a pair of children for the second master. She did not know that the second wife was What a feeling.
Shen Wan had previously wondered how the old lady and the second husband could think of letting Shen Ying learn Fangzhongshu from the Hualou girl to win Xie Jingyin's heart. It turned out that the second master had already learned about the power of Fangzhongshu and knew that men couldn't resist and wanted to scream. The second wife would definitely be furious if she knew it.
Shen Wan was already looking forward to the second wife's reaction after knowing this.
After washing up, the maid brought the food in. Xie Jingyan came back from morning exercise, and the two of them sat down to have breakfast together.
After dinner, Xie Jingyan went to the study. Shen Wan walked a lot yesterday and her calves were a little sore, so she didn't go out and was leaning on the couch reading.
Yin Shuang took the tea and ran back after a while. She looked at Shen Wan and said, "There is good news, bad news, and good or bad news. Which one should the princess hear first?"
This maid can still play tricks when she reports things.
Shen Wan turned the page and said, "Let's hear the good news first."
Yin Shuang said quickly, "Last night at the lantern festival, Mr. Wu had a fight with others in Wanhua Tower and his nose was broken. This matter was known to the censor. The censor impeached Mr. Wu for his failure to teach his son. As the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, , he couldn’t even discipline his own son well, and allowed his son to do such a shameful thing. When the emperor found out, he was very angry, and then he demoted Mr. Wu and promoted him to the Minister of Rites..."
Shen Wan felt relieved after hearing the news. Even though Mr. Wu and Mrs. Wu had their son sleep in Liu Mianhua, it finally came back to bite her.
Shen Wan asked, "Where's the bad news?"
Yin Shuang said, "The Fourth Master of the Song Dynasty in the Zuo Prime Minister's Office was appointed to the Third Rank. He died in the Meizhou earthquake, and the position became vacant. King Cheng recommended the Second Master, and the Emperor approved it."
That is to say, the second master has been promoted to a higher level.
Last time, King Cheng recommended the Second Master to be the Military Supervisor, but was disturbed by Xie Jingyan, so he recommended the Second Master again this time.
It seemed that what she felt was right, King Cheng was indeed attracted to Xie Jingyin.
The Queen Mother wholeheartedly supported the eldest prince, but King Cheng was not of the same mind as the Queen Mother. No wonder after Xie Jingyin ascended the throne in her previous life, the Queen Mother did not even want to see King Cheng.
Shen Wan was distracted, and Haitang asked, "Is there any good or bad news?"
Yin Shuang said, "On the way back to the palace last night, someone assassinated the prince and princess. When the emperor knew about it, Lei Lei was furious and immediately ordered the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to investigate the assassination. He also said that if they could not find out, he removed the names of the Minister of Punishment and the Minister of Dali Temple. Position."
It is expected that the emperor would be angry. During the day at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, Fu Shu's child was killed in front of all the civil and military officials. In the evening, Xie Jingyan and her were assassinated during the lantern festival. There are people under the emperor's feet who are doing such nonsense. How can the emperor tolerate it? .
But those assassins escaped and died, and no one was caught alive. It would be extremely difficult to find the real culprit with just a few corpses of assassins.
