"Where have you been?" Mother asked Deyin who had just returned. She hadn't seen this girl for a while and no one knew where she had gone.
Deyin took out the little gadget she had just bought in the alley and handed it to her mother, and the mother and daughter sat down and started chatting.
"Yinyin, do you feel that the person sent by the Ministry of Rites just now is familiar?" Deyin had never seen Zhao Chonglian, but had only heard of the name in the mansion, so he had no impression of what happened just now.
Just now, when Guaerjia thought of the face in the mansion, she thought of the person who came to visit the master before. It was the elder brother of Aunt Zhao who had not seen for a long time. It was said that it was Concubine Liang who introduced him to the officialdom. However, since he did not work in the Ministry of Rites, why did he come with the people from the Ministry of Rites? Just now, the maid came to report that she had met a strange man in front of Aunt Zhao's courtyard. After several considerations, the maid told the matter to the wife. Originally, Guaerjia did not think much about it and thought that the people from the Ministry of Rites were lost. Just now, Zhao Chonglian's face flashed through her mind and made her remember. This made sense. The person in front of Aunt Zhao's courtyard was her brother.
When Deyin heard her mother mention Zhao Chonglian, she remembered Aunt Zhao whom she met in the alley just now. She came out in a hurry just after the meeting, and no one knew what the two of them talked about. Deyin calculated the time and found that the two siblings had only contacted each other in recent months. Logically, they had not seen each other for twenty years, and they must have common interests to meet again.
Wasn't it the time for her to get engaged to the Fourth Prince in the past few months? Could this be related to her?
"Mother, do you know anything about Zhao Chonglian?"
Guaerjia took a sip of tea and recalled what her master had said before: "I heard from your father that Zhao Chonglian was not valued at first, but later on, with the recommendation of Concubine Liang, he also got a position in the court."
The word "Liang Fei" was deeply imprinted in Deyin's mind. First, Juelan entered Zhongcui Palace, and then Zhao Chonglian had a secret relationship with Aunt Zhao. Could it be that all this was related to Empress Liang Fei? Was it because of good luck that she escaped the disaster in Liang Fei's Palace before? If it hadn't been for her order, those palace maids wouldn't have dared to add things to their food so presumptuously. That incident didn't make a big deal. After all, it would not benefit anyone to tear their faces apart.
After all, they are both princes. The Fourth Prince is now related to the Nianhulu clan. As the Eighth Prince's biological mother, how could she not be anxious? However, it really surprised Deyin that Concubine Liang fell in love with Juelan. As expected, when a person is anxious, he will think less.
"Does mother have any concerns?" Deyin saw Guaerjia asking her like this, and she might have some thoughts in her mind.
Although Guaerjia said that it was nothing, she still had some concerns in her heart. Could it be that what happened recently was too coincidental? Her daughter's wedding to the Fourth Prince was imminent and she really couldn't be careless at this time. The two siblings could have met openly today, but they chose to sneak into the Ministry of Rites and the palace. It was really hard for people not to be suspicious.
Deyin and her mother did not take a carriage today, but walked around all the way. Luwu pulled Deyin's sleeve to let her look ahead. How could she not know that although she had not been here many times, she still remembered clearly where the Fourth Prince's residence was. It was just that she was shy when she saw things related to Yinzhen recently. There was no one outside the mansion, so she could only glance at it with her eyes and walked over quickly with some embarrassment. Guaerjia saw through these little actions at a glance, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled.
It's really as if something happened. I don't know why Yinzhen came back home so early today. He walked towards Deyin, but Deyin kept her head down and didn't notice him.
"Where are you going in such a hurry?" As soon as Yinzhen's voice sounded, Deyin's ears flushed. He took the opportunity to grab her sachet to stop her.
"Master, let go." This seemed quite awkward to the people passing by on the street. Deyin grabbed his sachet as if he wanted to pull it back.
Yinzhen felt that this girl was a little different today, as if she was afraid of seeing him, so he moved forward. However, he did not expect that Deyin quickly stepped back as soon as he took a step forward.
"What's wrong?".
"Master, I want to go back home first."
Yinzhen didn't ask any more questions, but whispered a few words to Deyin. Then he saw Guaerjia coming over and went forward to greet her.
Guaerjia knew that her daughter was shy so she tried to smooth things over for her, saying that she was not feeling well and had no interest in going out shopping.
Deyin was waiting for her mother in front, glancing at Yinzhen from time to time.
