Lan Xiangkun raised his hand and took a few people to the east wing.
When everyone was seated, he glanced at Si Jinxing and said:
"It's Princess Jing."
Princess Jing?
Ye Wan'er?
Si Jinxing's eyes turned cold. When she saw Ye Wan'er yesterday, she looked pitiful, as if she was being bullied and manipulated by Concubine Luo.
How come in the blink of an eye, you come to bully our own family?
What's the logic behind this? Do you think she's easy to bully?
She stood up suddenly and rushed out!
Mr. Lan, Lan Zhantang, quickly told Lan Qichen to stop the man and said:
"Xing'er, what are you doing? Listen to what your uncle has to say first."
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing had no choice but to patiently return to his seat.
She thought she was very calm and had never been like this before.
She just wanted to ask Ye Wan'er, why would she hurt innocent people just for Qi Moli?
If that's the case, she can let go and deal with the Ye family, right?
Lan Xiangkun felt relieved when he saw his little niece looking indignant. This child is a righteous person!
He said, "Xing'er, you should be aware of the situation of Princess Jing.
The position of princess was not what Prince Jing wanted to give her, so why would he be interested in her?
And how could she reach out to our house?
I'm sure you know the reason.
If you impulsively look for her now, will you fall into the trap of the person behind this?"
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing asked, "Should we just pretend that this never happened?
Ye Wan'er must have come here for me, but she made my grandmother's condition so serious, how could I possibly disturb her?"
Lan Xiangan, the third master of the Lan Mansion, heard the voice and said:
"You kid, your uncle has been talking for a long time, why don't you listen?
Ye Wan'er came here for you, but the person behind her is using you to kill someone.
Have you ever thought about what happens next? What is the purpose of their plan? "
After hearing this, Si Jinxing asked blankly:
"Third uncle, you mean..."
She paused, sorted out her thoughts, and slowly said:
"If their plan succeeds and something happens to Grandmother, our Lan family will undoubtedly be devastated and plunged into grief..."
Mr. Lan nodded and said:
"If what I predicted is true, I'm afraid there will be chaos in the capital!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room looked solemn.
Because of this speculation, and the old lady's illness, everyone put down their chopsticks after eating only a few bites at lunch on New Year's Day.
Fortunately, not long after lunch, Mrs. Lan woke up.
She looked around at everyone, finally looking at Si Jinxing, and slowly said:
"Xing'er, why are they all gathered here?
Oh, you're here to ask for New Year's money, right? I'll get up right away."
Si Jinxing almost couldn't hold back when she heard that.
If it weren’t for Ye Wan’er, the house would have been so lively on New Year’s Day this year, and my grandmother would have been so happy!
She suppressed the soreness in her eyes, but couldn't utter a word.
It was Lan Qichen who stepped forward and said:
"Grandma, you were overworked recently and fell ill early this morning.
But luckily, Xing'er is here. She gave you some medicine, and you'll be fine after a few days of rest!"
When the old lady heard this, she gradually remembered that she fainted in the morning. She looked at Si Jinxing and said with some difficulty:
"I was just saying, I really feel much better. Xing'er must have put in a lot of effort, right?"
As she spoke, she slowly raised her hand and reached out to her granddaughter who was covering her face and crying.
Seeing this, Si Jinxing hurriedly sat down in front of the couch, held the old lady's hand, and said:
"Grandma, if you really love me and don't want me to have to worry about anything, then take good care of yourself.
You have to take the medicine I prescribed properly."
The old lady smiled and said, "Okay, grandma will listen to whatever Xing'er says!"
After all, she had just had surgery and was still a little weak. The old lady said a few words and fell into a deep sleep again.
Although General Lan did not say a word to his wife, he felt much more relieved.
That night, Si Jinxing and Wei's mother stayed in the room together to prevent the old lady from suffering from postoperative discomfort.
The next day was the second day of the Lunar New Year.
Today, the weather cleared up, but it was a little colder.
Han looked at the sleeping old lady, pulled Si Jinxing to the west wing, and said distressedly:
"Your grandmother's side will be taken care of by me and your two aunts.
You silly child, look at the dark circles under your eyes, lie down and get some sleep."
At Han's urging, Si Jinxing had no choice but to lie down on the couch, cover herself with the quilt, close her eyes and pretend to fall asleep.
After Han left, she suddenly opened her eyes and said softly:
"Qingchan, come here."
Qing Chan stepped forward suspiciously, and heard her own princess quietly ask:
"Did your prince arrange spies in Prince Jing's mansion?"
Qing Chan said without hesitation: "Of course there is.
In this Jianzhou city, among the wealthy families and large courtyards, which family doesn’t have a few spies?
Take our palace for example, there are also many spies planted there.
It’s just that the information those people spread was fake.”
Si Jinxing then remembered that when she first went to Qi Moli's house, that person had mentioned the matter of spies.
That's good!
She couldn't wait to say, "You go later..."
Upon hearing this, Qing Chan couldn't help but ask, "She? Can she help us?"
Si Jinxing said: "Why not?
Have you forgotten the saying, the enemy of my enemy is my friend?
But there's no rush for this matter. Let's first find out her current situation before we can make any plans!"
Qingchan nodded and left.
Si Jinxing then lay back on the bed. She felt sleepy and soon fell into a deep sleep.
At the same time, outside the Pingguan Marquis Mansion on Xuanwu Street.
Si Junshan, wearing a plain suit, got on the carriage.
He lifted the curtain and took a look at the house next door, only to see that the door was closed.
I think the child is very happy in the Lan Mansion.
Si Junshan was going to transport the old lady's coffin back to Hengzhou today, so he went to the Southern Prison of Jingzhao Prefecture early in the morning.
When the jailer on duty saw that it was Lord Si, he immediately let him go and led him inside.
The house in the South Prison is low, with thick walls and very small windows. Therefore, the cells are dark, damp, and filled with an extremely unpleasant smell of decay.
But Si Junshan was not afraid of the disgusting smell at all.
He followed the jailer, turning many corners and passing through one prison gate after another, and finally saw Si Junyuan and Si Jinchang who were imprisoned opposite him.
