Chapter 1,067: The Housemaid Comes to the Door

"Who?" Shao Wanru didn't understand, so he waved his hand and asked again.

Yujie opened the curtain and went out.

"It is said that an old man who is related to the Marquis of Xingguo wants to see the princess." The mother-in-law lowered her head and did not dare to look at Shao Wanru in the curtain, and whispered.

The mother-in-law actually didn't want to retaliate. This madam didn't have a good background at first glance, otherwise she would have retaliated against the old lady instead of the old person.

There are so many old people. The people we met in childhood who are not very relevant are also called old people.

However, since it was mentioned that he was an old person and a visitor from the Xingguo Hou Mansion, the mother-in-law did not dare to offend him and could only come in to report.

"Princess, are there any old people in the Xingguo Hou Mansion? When I was in the Xingguo Hou Mansion, I didn't see a lady come to visit you before?" Yu Jie turned back, lowered the curtain, and went inside to report.

The days in the Xingguo Hou Mansion were actually only a few days. Not to mention the wife, I didn’t even see a few ladies from Beifu. All I saw was a few people in the mansion, and some of them were scheming. Yu Jie really thought I couldn't find any lady who was my master's old friend in the Xingguo Hou Mansion.

"Princess, are you here to blackmail someone on purpose?" Qu Le's mind flashed and she asked. She couldn't remember any lady who was familiar with her princess.

Those who can be called old friends must be acquaintances. The princess has not even seen outsiders in the Xingguo Hou Mansion, so where did she come from?

It is impossible to say that it is Mrs. Jiang, the wife of the Marquis of Xingguo. Mrs. Jiang cannot come out to see anyone at the moment, and it is even more impossible for the concubine. The eldest grandma will not come to report a familiar lady. As for the other people, the two girls Tamaki can't even think of it.

Shao Wanru pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "There really is one!"

"Which one? How come the princess, slaves, etc. have been following the princess and don't know about this?" Qu Le and Yu Jie looked at each other.

"That day, when I met Marquis Xingguo outside..." Shao Wanru said with a hint of darkness in his eyes.

"No way, a woman like that comes to see you?" Qu Le said in disbelief. It was the outer chamber of Marquis Xingguo. It didn't look good at first glance, and the news I heard later was indeed true.

Not only is she a foreign wife, but she has been raising a foreign wife for more than ten years, and she even has a daughter.

Who in a noble family would value such an outer room?

"Princess, Marquis Xingguo has gone too far. He actually let this woman come to his door. Could it be that he wants the princess to recognize her first, and then the princess proposes to let her into the house?" Yu Jie turned pale with anger.

"This is unlikely. If you want to enter the Xingguo Marquis' Mansion, the wife must speak up." Qu Le shook his head and denied,

Marquis Xingguo has his own elders, and he is also the elder of the princess. How could he let a junior help his concubine to enter the palace?

"Why is it impossible? Madam Tai is no longer in charge of the affairs. The person in charge of the palace is the eldest grandma, and the eldest grandma is the daughter-in-law. No matter how thick-skinned Marquis Xingguo is, he is too embarrassed to let his daughter-in-law bring up such a thing. The princess is now He is the most distinguished person in the Xingguo Marquis Mansion. As long as the princess comes forward, his foreign wife will not be a problem. Not only will he admit this foreign wife, but he will also recognize a daughter."

Yujie sneered.

Shao Wanru was silent for a moment. This woman came very strangely. It was just a one-time relationship. She was in an ordinary outer room. When she saw the people in the palace, it was too late to hide. Fortunately, she actually had the courage to enter the door of her own palace. She was so good. She was just an old acquaintance, how could she be sure that she would see her and be willing to see her.

"Send her away, just say I don't know her." Shao Wanru said, no matter where this woman came from, she didn't want to pay attention to it, but it would be interesting to see what they do next.

"Princess, please go and take a look!" Yu Jie took the initiative and said lightly. She wanted to take a look at that shameless woman.

Shao Wanru nodded.

Yujie opened the curtain and went out, taking the woman who reported the news to the outside of the house. When she got to the door, she saw a lonely carriage in front of the gate. In front of the small carriage stood a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy. The little maid, wearing a double bun and a pretty face, saluted hurriedly when she saw Yujie coming over.

"Who is your wife? We, the princess, don't know any wives." Yu Jie raised her head and looked at the carriage with a rather arrogant look.

The curtain of the carriage was opened, and there was a little maid of twelve or thirteen years old inside.

The woman named "E Niang" who was seen above was revealed behind the opened curtain. When she saw Yu Jie, she smiled before saying anything. She supported the little maid's hand and got out of the carriage. She turned sideways and saluted Yu Jie: "This This girl, we met last time, when Princess Chen and Marquis Xingguo were both there, girl, do you still remember me?"

Wearing a light-colored long skirt, the woman looked very elegant, and her originally delicate appearance became even more outstanding.

She is a woman who knows how to dress well.

That day, Xingguo Hou Shao Jing took him with him, and Yu Jie didn't dare to look at it more. At this time, she looked up and down carefully.

"Who are you? Our princess doesn't know you!" After reading this, Yujie's face remained stern and she said displeasedly, "You'd better go back. If you want to find Marquis Xingguo, you should go to Marquis Xingguo's Mansion."

"Miss Yujie, I am E Niang whom the Marquis brought here last time!" E Niang said softly, tears overflowing her eyes, looking extremely pitiful, "Didn't the princesses all meet me when we were in the private room before? Have you been polite?"

"So what do you want to do?" Yu Jie was shocked. She actually knew her own name. She was indeed prepared, and her expression became calm at the moment.

"I don't want to do anything, I just have something to do and want to see Princess Chen." E Niang wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and said with great grievance, "After meeting Princess Chen before, I remembered one thing. It should be with Princess Chen. It’s related to the princess, so I made a special trip this time.”

"What's the matter with our princess?" Yu Jie looked at the Empress up and down again, and said with an unhappy expression, "What's the matter with our princess that we need you to come and run over."

With Shao Wanru's identity, how could he be related to such a woman.

"It's true, it's about the princess's father. Please ask Miss Yujie to go in and report." E Niang said softly, and bowed sideways, looking very respectful to Yujie.

The princess's father is the former crown prince of Xingguo. Yujie can't take charge of such a matter for a while.

The princess has been searching for the truth of that year, and several close confidants know it, but it is too difficult to find out what happened back then, and the prince died in a place like the border.

Is there any clue now?

It's just that this clue actually appeared in the hands of this woman, and Yujie was dubious.

"Miss Yujie, it's really important. When I met Princess Chen before, I couldn't remember it. I only remembered such an important thing later. Miss Yujie..." Seeing Yujie's expression hesitant, E Niang knew there was something going on, so she spoke more and more eloquently.

His expression was very sincere.

"No, our princess said that the affairs of the princess's father and mother are very clear. There is no need for this lady to say anything. If this lady really feels that something is wrong, go out and turn two intersections to the left, which is the Ministry of Punishment. , you can go to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice to explain this kind of thing clearly."

Qu Le walked out of the door of Prince Chen's Mansion.

She left later than Yujie. It was Shao Wanru who specifically asked her to leave like this, and what she said now was also what Shao Wanru specifically told her to do.

"I really have something to report to the princess." Seeing Qule walking out expressionlessly, E Niang knew it was not good and said hurriedly.

"Madam, our princess really doesn't know you, and we don't want to know about the former crown prince of Xingguo who you deliberately confused. If you continue to entangle us, don't blame the guards in our palace for not knowing him. Directly I will arrest you and throw you into prison, and charge you with disturbing the palace."

Qu Le followed Shao Wanru's orders and his attitude was very tough.

Several guards came out from the door and walked over with evil eyes. Although the long sword hanging on the waist was still in its sheath, it exuded a murderous aura.

These guards guarding the door were specially sent by the emperor. When Qu Le just went out, he told them that someone was deliberately coming to cause trouble, and asked the guard leader to send a few out.

E Niang's face turned pale in panic. When she saw Qu Le's stern eyebrows and then looked at the guard who looked a bit evil, she didn't dare to say anything and could only help the maid get into the carriage.

The carriage turned a corner and went around obediently.

"Qule, did the princess ask you to come?" Yujie looked at the carriage that seemed to be escaping, then at the guards walking back, and asked in a low voice.

"Let's talk after we go back first!" Qu Le nodded.

The two of them entered the palace gate together and headed to the backyard.

"Princess, she said she knew some old things about your father. She said she didn't think of you when she saw you, but now she suddenly remembered you, so she made such a special trip." Yu Jie asked Shao Wanru as soon as she entered the door. Report.

Qu Le had just arrived late and didn't hear this sentence. At this time, he was stunned for a moment that it was such an important thing, and subconsciously looked at Shao Wanru.

With the princess's temperament, she would definitely investigate this matter.

"It's such a reason!" Shao Wanru smiled coldly. Just now she had guessed that this woman must have a very reasonable reason for her to see her, and it seemed like this at the moment.

"Is the princess true?" Yu Jie said worriedly. The matter between Princess Qinghua and the former Crown Prince of Xingguo Palace was the princess's biggest concern. If this matter was true, she couldn't miss it.

"Do you think it's true?" Shao Wanru raised his cold eyes and asked.

"Slave... I don't know... I think it may be true or false." Yu Jie hesitated, she really couldn't tell the truth.

"Why do you say that?" Shao Wanru asked with some interest.

"This woman is the concubine of Marquis Xingguo. Based on her identity, it seems that she may know something. But even if she knows something based on her identity, she cannot suddenly come to see you, whom she has only met once, unless...unless Something very sudden and unexpected happened! So I think it may be true or false, I can’t say for sure!”

Yujie thought for a while and said bluntly.
