In the main courtyard, after the eldest lady sent the fourth lady away, she couldn't let go of her breath.

Ms. Liu exchanged a cup of hot tea for the eldest lady, "Ma'am, when the third young master arrives, you can ask him first."

"Although Ji Ming is not my own, I know he doesn't have the guts to dare to murder and blame his brother."

"That's what the lady said."

"You heard what Luo Shi said just now. She said that Ji Ming and Shumao framed her son." The lady was indignant, "What does she mean? Are you accusing me of being a poor parent, or accusing me? Mother's brother and sister-in-law?"

"Ma'am, calm down."

"Mother Liu, you send someone to Wuninghou's mansion to tell my sister-in-law."

Mother Liu asked for instructions: "Ma'am, what should I say?"

The eldest lady thought for a while, and said: "Let's say, the sixth young master in our mansion has committed some crimes. He had a conflict with Shumao before, please ask my sister-in-law to restrain Shumao."

"Yes." Mama Liu stepped back in response, and found a clever young man to deliver the message to Marquis of Wuning.

When Mama Liu passed by the gate of the courtyard, she happened to see Yang Jiming and Shang Jiayan approaching, and greeted them with a smile, "The third young master and the third young lady are here."

Shang Jiayan said with a smile: "I heard that my mother gave us food, we didn't dare to delay, we came here immediately."

Mother Liu joked, "The third young lady must be thinking about the cakes in the Lord's courtyard."

"Let Ms. Liu find out, Mum has to hide it for me."

Ms. Liu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mum knows what's in mind, so let the small kitchen make more pastries."

"Thank you, Mama Liu."

Mother Liu led them into the main room, "Ma'am, the third young master and the third young lady are here."

Yang Jiming and Shang Jiayan went forward to salute, and the lady asked them to sit down.

The eldest lady said: "Your fourth aunt came here just now and said that the sixth young master was framed."

Shang Jiayan asked: "Mother, can Fourth Aunt say who framed Sixth Brother?"

The lady's eyes fell heavily on Yang Jiming.

Shang Jiayan lowered his eyes slightly, feeling a little sullen.They were praying that Yang Chen would be safe, but these people suspected that Yang Jiming had harmed Yang Chen.

Yang Jiming was taken aback for a moment, "Why does mother look at me like this? Could it be that my aunt suspects me?"

The eldest lady nodded, "She suspects you and Shumao. Because after Yang Chen returned to Beijing, he only had major conflicts with you two."

Yang Jiming laughed angrily, "That boy Yang Chen, I didn't blame him, he caused trouble everywhere after he returned to Beijing, I don't know how many people he offended." The lady calmed down a bit, and said: "They are all a family, four-bedroom It’s a mess, our eldest room has to help clean it up, but we can’t keep all shit in the first room.”

"What mother said is true." Yang Jiming said, "Last night, Jing Shuo and I went to the street to watch the lanterns, and then went back to the house to rest. We have never met the sixth brother. If I want to spare him time, I might as well practice a few more big characters."

Shang Jiayan also said: "Ji Ming and I have been together all the time. Whenever he has time, he reads and has never done anything else."

The eldest lady nodded, and when they mentioned reading and practicing calligraphy, she asked Yang Jiming, "Are you sure you can pass the children's test?"

Yang Jiming replied: "I don't have much confidence, but I will try my best to try to pass it."

"Okay, just try your best, don't force yourself too much." The eldest lady said softly.

The madam was really surprised that a person who had been raised and disabled suddenly had to study and take the imperial examination.She couldn't help but look at Shang Jiayan more, never expecting that he would have such a big influence on Yang Jiming.

Every time she thinks of this, the eldest lady regrets that she has pushed the Shang family's marriage to Yang Jiming. She should have suggested that her natal nephew should go to the Shang family to propose marriage.

Hearing this, Shang Jiayan couldn't help but slightly frowned, feeling that what Da Furen said seemed a little strange.

Yang Jiming replied "Yes".

In Puhe courtyard, Aunt Du was also worried.

She was obviously just letting someone teach Yang Chen a lesson, so why did she become a murderer?

Aunt Du was worried that someone had set up a game in the middle of the game for her.

"Has the boy not been found yet?"

Bai Ping replied: "Additional manpower has been sent to look for it."

"Both the mansion and the Shuntian mansion are looking for him, we must find him before they do." Aunt Du frowned, the matter greatly exceeded her expectations.

"Yes. Auntie, don't worry too much. Even if someone else finds the iron sheet first, he won't be able to confess to us. When our people meet him, they have a disguise."

"That's good."

"Auntie, the person who died was a local ruffian. He usually bullied the weak and feared the strong. He did many bad things. Many people wanted his life. Maybe someone happened to find him drunk by the side of the road and took the opportunity to finish him off."

"It would be great if things were this simple. But if it were so simple, that boy wouldn't disappear. I'm afraid someone is hiding behind us and taking advantage of us. That would be too scary."

Boom boom boom!

The maid who was guarding the door knocked on the door and said: "Auntie, Auntie Fang woke up and is clamoring for you to play with her."

Aunt Du raised her voice and said, "Let her in."

So, the maid opened the door from the outside, and Aunt Fang ran in madly.After the door was closed again, Aunt Fang regained consciousness.

Bai Ping poured tea for Aunt Fang, then stood aside.

Aunt Du asked, "What do you need from me?"

Aunt Fang slowly picked up the teacup, took a small sip, and said with a half-smile, "You seem to be in trouble?"

"You're well-informed."

"We live in the same yard now. Tell me, maybe I can help you think of a way."

"I want to find someone, can you help me find someone?"

"You, Du Baozhu, are so powerful, who can't find you?" Aunt Fang chuckled, "I heard that the fourth master is looking for the sixth young master's servant, so you must be looking for this person, right?"

Aunt Du didn't make a sound, and the expression on her face didn't change much.

Aunt Fang clicked her tongue a few times and said, "You are really cruel. In such a cold day, people can sleep on the side of the road so that they don't freeze to death?"

Aunt Du knew that she couldn't hide it from her, "The clothes are thick and tightly wrapped, and the time outside is also very short, so no one can die."

"Didn't you instigate people to do the things of the dead?"

"No."

Aunt Fang laughed, "The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows."

Aunt Du's face was livid, she obviously agreed with Aunt Fang's statement, and she even made Aunt Fang laugh at her.

Aunt Fang still sneered, "I just don't know, what would the third young master think if he knew what you did."

Aunt Du looked at her sharply, "As long as you don't say anything."

Aunt Fang looked at her without giving in.

After a while, Aunt Fang smiled and said, "Don't worry, we are on the same boat."

After finishing speaking, Aunt Fang laughed and went out.In the eyes of outsiders, she just entered the house crazily, and then came out crazily.

Bai Ping stepped forward and asked worriedly, "Auntie, will Aunt Fang reveal our affairs?"

"Until she avenges her son, she won't say it."

"And after that?"

"At that time, everything will be settled. I believe the third young master will understand."

Yang Jiming and Shang Jiayan stayed in the main courtyard for dinner, and went back to Chenxiang courtyard together.

When passing through a corridor, they met a young boy walking in a hurry.

The young man ran too fast and almost bumped into them, he hurriedly pleaded guilty, "Third Young Master and Third Young Madam, please forgive me."

Shang Jiayan recognized him, "You are a pony in the kitchen. What are you doing in such a hurry?"

"Third young lady, I have something urgent to report to the steward."

"What's the matter?"

Xiao Ma hesitated whether to say or not.

Yang Jiming glanced around and reprimanded: "Third Young Madam asked you something, just answer it truthfully."

Xiao Ma shrank back a little, lowered his head and replied: "I saw the iron sheet next to the sixth young master near the Xicheng vegetable market this morning."

Yang Jiming and Shang Jiayan couldn't help looking at each other.

Yang Jiming asked: "It's already getting dark, why did you report it?"

"Back to the third young master, the young one and Manager Wu have been staying in the kitchen since they came back from shopping. I just found out that Lord Hou and the fourth master sent someone to look for Tiepi."

Shang Jiayan asked: "Is he alone, or with others?"

"Back to Mrs. Third, I saw him meeting a girl in a sneaky way. Both of them were carrying their burdens. They seemed to be heading towards the west gate."

"That girl, do you remember what she looks like?"

"She is short, slightly fat, and wearing a blue cloth jacket. She is so small that she can't see clearly from a distance, only a rough figure can be seen."

Shang Jiayan nodded slightly and said, "Go quickly."

The pony made a bow and left quickly.

Yang Jiming said: "That boy eloped with the girl, right?"

Shang Jiayan sighed: "If they eloped, they must have hidden carefully and ran far away, so it would be even more difficult to find."

Yang Jiming smiled, "Not necessarily."

"How do you say that?"

"Let's go, let's go back to Chenxiangyuan first."

Shang Jiayan looked sideways at him, and smiled quietly.

At the courtyard gate, as soon as Yang Jiming and Shang Jiayan arrived, Bai Ping arrived behind.

After Bai Ping saluted, she said: "My aunt heard about the Sixth Young Master, she is worried about the Third Young Master, and ordered me to take a look."

Yang Jiming said: "My aunt is worrying too much, I'm fine. After you go back, just let my aunt feel at ease."

Shang Jiayan asked: "What did Auntie hear?"

"As for the third young lady, people in Xiyuan today said to everyone that the sixth young master only had conflicts with the third young master and the fourth young master of the Marquis of Wuning after returning to Beijing." Bai Ping looked worried, "If this matter is not clear , I'm afraid the third young master will always be suspected."

With a dark face, Yang Jiming said angrily: "This is really a crime you want to impose, there is no excuse."

Bai Ping said: "Third young master, three people become tigers."

Shang Jiayan took Yang Jiming's hand and squeezed his palm lightly. "Fourth aunt fabricated it out of thin air, Mr. Xu will find out, and father and mother will not allow others to slander us."

However, Shang Jiayan was a little strange, the Fourth Madam turned against them like this?

Yang Jiming let out a foul breath and said, "Fortunately, there is already news about that boy."

Bai Ping was slightly startled, and asked, "Did you find the iron sheet?"

Jiming Yang said, "Yes, the pony in the kitchen saw him elope with a girl this morning."

"It turns out that it is like this. Someone will be found, and then the third young master will be cleared. Let's see if the fourth lady has any face!" Bai Ping was filled with righteous indignation.

Yang Jiming said: "Go back and tell Auntie, don't worry about me."

"Yes."

After Bai Ping resigned, Shang Jiayan frowned slightly, feeling that there was something wrong with Bai Ping's words and deeds, but he couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.

Yang Jiming pressed the center of his eyebrows, and said in a warm voice: "Don't frown, I'll go to Zhang Butou right away, and I'll definitely get the iron sheet back."

"It's getting late, send someone."

"I'm afraid I can't tell clearly when others pass on a message."

"Then you go back early."
