Along the way, I looked at the maids and mothers of the Lin family who seemed to be more cautious in breathing, and their steps were as light as cats.

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but be surprised. Could it be that something happened to the Lin family during her absence?

This question was answered after Ren Yaoqi went to Ren Shijia's yard and met Ren Shijia.

Ren Shijia was very happy that Ren Shijia returned to his residence today. He handed the child over to the maid and took Ren Yaoqi to the kang to ask about his well-being. Ren Yaoqi also handed the gift list given by Rong to Ren Shijia's nanny.

"What happened in the mansion?" Ren Yaoqi asked softly.

Ren Shijia looked very good.

"My husband dealt with all those people yesterday."

Ren Yaoqi was stunned: "Who?"

The smile on Ren Shijia's face was sarcastic: "What else? Are you just the trick slaves who dare to harm my Brother Cen? My husband found that kind of medicine in a kitchen manager's room. He also involved a few nannies and maids. Those people are now beaten by his husband and are about to sell them."

Ren Yaoqi was a little surprised. Is Lin Kun already planning to break up with the Lin family's big house?

At this moment, there was a noise outside, mixed with the cry of a woman.

Ren Shijia frowned slightly, and the expression on his face was a little complicated.

"Auntie, your uncle, aunt, I'm wronged..." The woman's voice became louder, as if someone wanted to pull her away.

This call of aunt made Ren Yaoqi stunned and couldn't help but look at Ren Shijia.

Ren Shijia sighed and finally said, "Let her come in."

After a while, a woman stumbled in and knelt in front of Ren Shijia with a thud: "Auntie, I am wronged..."

She raised her head with tears on her face. It was time for Ren Yaoqi to recognize her as Qingliu, a maid prepared by Old Lady Ren for her son-in-law.

Qingliu had some dirty tears on her face and her hair was a little messy, but she had no injuries on her body. She was very quick to move and should have never been hit by a board.

"Qingliu, it's not that I don't believe you. It's just that the wet nurse's food was indeed passed by your hands in those days. Someone saw that the manager in the kitchen had stuffed you money, and the maids who committed the crime were also close to you. When they confessed, they also called you out. Because you were the one given to me by my mother, my husband also showed mercy to you and did not let you be tortured. But I can no longer tolerate you, so you should go back to my mother's place."

"Auntie, you also said that I was given to you by the old lady. My family was in the hands of the old lady. How could I betray you? I was wronged."

Ren Shijia was a little hesitant when he heard this.

Qingliu continued: "It must be those who deliberately poured dirty water on our Ren family to confuse our master's audio-visual. Aunt, you should be the master of your slaves."

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but look at this maid who was low-key, gentle and gentle in her usual style. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, she was quite polite and dared to pull the Ren family in.

My personal behavior has risen to my family behavior, so it is really hard to move her.

Ren Shijia sighed: "You go down first, stop making trouble. I will discuss it with my husband before talking."

Qingliu refused to leave, crying non-stop.

Chunlan, the eldest maid next to Ren Shijia, raised her face and taught her a lesson, but in the end she finally dragged her down.

Shi Jia sighed again: "My mother's family was chosen by her and I really couldn't deal with her. I could only send her back and hand it over to her to her for delivery."

At this time, someone outside reported that the eldest wife was coming.

Ren Shijia frowned.

After a while, Mrs. Lin came in, and the expression on her face was always dignified and friendly.

"Oh, my aunt and nephew are whispering. Am I disturbing?" Mrs. Lin spoke, which is always unpleasant.

Ren Shijia cheered up and dealt with her.

Mrs. Lin exchanged a few greetings with Ren Shijia, then smiled at Ren Yaoqi and said, "Good boy, I want to say a few thoughtful words to your aunt, so you can do it?" Her tone was a little joking.

Ren Yaoqi stood up with the flow: "Then I'll go back first." She had no intention of participating in the Lin family's fight.

Ren Shijia originally wanted to keep Ren Yaoqi, but Mrs. Lin said so, so she couldn't say anything. She remembered what Lin Kun told her before going out, and secretly cheered herself up.

After Ren Yaoqi came out of Ren Shijia's room, he went back to his room. Seeing that there was no movement from Ren Yaoyin next door, Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but ask: "Where is my fourth sister? Not in the mansion?"

The answer was Xiangqin: "I have inquired, and the fourth lady is said to have gone to the Yun family."

Yaoqi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "She went there alone?"

Xiangqin lowered her voice mysteriously: "I heard that she sent a letter to the eldest lady of the Yun family, and then the eldest lady of the Yun family asked her to go to the house to discuss poetry."

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help laughing when she heard this. Her fourth sister was actually quite capable.

"Didn't you just returned home? Where did you find out about these?" Ren Yaoqi asked while asking Apple to change her clothes.

Xiangqin smiled proudly: "I am the best maid around the ladies, otherwise the third lady would not lend me my maid to you, Miss No. 5."

Ren Yaoqi was amused and laughed, so he waved his hand to let her go.

Mrs. Lin and Ren Shijia didn't know what they said. When they went to Ren Shijia for lunch, Ren Shijia's face turned a little bad. Ren Yaoqi didn't ask much. He went back after dinner.

In the afternoon, Zhu Ruoju suddenly came and brought news that Lady Luo suddenly died of illness.

When he heard this news, Ren Yaoqi was stunned for a long time.

“Aren’t yesterday still fine?”

Zhu Ruoju's eyes were a little red: "It was originally fine, but this morning she looked very bad, and she was out of breath and couldn't even say anything. I went to invite the doctor back. The doctor said that she was old and she didn't care about some of her physical problems. After years of accumulation, she caused a stubborn disease. She also said that she was depressed and had a dying intention. The doctor said that we wanted us to prepare for the funeral, but as soon as the doctor left, she couldn't do it. My mother originally wanted to ask Shui Ai to come back to send her for a ride, but she didn't even see the last one."

Shui Ai Ren Yaoqi did not bring her back, but asked her to stay in Baoping Hutong for the time being and asked Chuchu to teach her the rules. She is now in the Lin family, so it is not easy for her to bring a maid back suddenly. She was taking her away when she returned to Baihe Town.

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but wonder, if she hadn't brought Lady Luo from the farm at that time, would Lady Luo live longer?

Ren Yaoqi knew that he could not think about such things, otherwise he would easily fall into a devil. So she told herself not to think about it.

He asked Apple to take out thirty taels of silver to arrange for Zhu Ruoju to bury Mrs. Luo, and sent two nannies to help. He also asked someone to pick up Shui Ai to go back to Baoping Hutong. After Zhu Ruoju left, Ren Yaoqi lay on the kang to read a book, and it took an afternoon to see.

The next day, shortly after Ren Yaoqi finished breakfast, Xiao Jinglin sent someone to pick her up the mansion.

Yanbei Wangfu is located in the middle of Yunyang City, facing north and south. It has four main gates in the east, west, south and north, and eight auxiliary gates, covering an area of ​​more than 500 acres. All buildings are mostly distributed on three axes, both left, middle and right, and look very magnificent from a distance.

Although the Yanbei Palace is not as big as the Kyoto Palace, it is built according to the rules of the palace and is divided into the front hall and the rear hall.

Ren Yaoqi entered by carriage from Yanbei Wangfu, so the road was unobstructed. It was not easy to see Ren Yaoqi when he was on the carriage. When he got off the carriage, he took a random look and found that the place he was going to was near the west axis of the Wangfu.

The buildings in Yanbei Wangfu rarely use gold bricks, white marble, and glazed glass. Most of them use a whole piece of bluestone, which is very dark in color. It is not beautiful, but it reveals domineeringness and vicissitudes everywhere.

Xiao Jinglin's residence is located in Yanjuyuan, west of the royal palace. It has a beautiful name, but the yard is nothing special. The courtyard is very large and there are no flowers and plants planted, only two elderly sycamore trees.

When Ren Yaoqi entered, Xiao Jinglin was waiting for her in the courtyard, holding a spear in her hand. Her face was quiet and her face was sweating. Ren Yaoqi didn't know if she had finished practicing the gun or was about to practice it.

Seeing Ren Yaoqi coming, Xiao Jinglin's eyes flashed, and then she picked up the gun in her hand beyond everyone's expectations, and suddenly came towards Ren Yaoqi, pointing the gun head directly at Ren Yaoqi's storefront.

The maid Peng, who was walking beside Ren Yaoqi, was startled and exclaimed that she was about to stand in front of Ren Yaoqi, but was avoided and pushed by Xiao Jinglin, and used clever force to push the person out several steps away, and then the spear continued to come towards Ren Yaoqi.

During this process, Ren Yaoqi kept looking at Xiao Jinglin with a smile until the gun tip was pressed against the tip of her nose, and Ren Yaoqi didn't even blink his eyelids.

Before Xiao Jinglin could get the gun away, the man laughed first: "What a courage."

Ren Yaoqi shook his head and looked at Xiao Jinglin and moved the gun away: "I was shocked at first, but I knew I couldn't hide, so I simply didn't hide."

Xiao Jinglin threw the gun to her maid, looked at the apple again, and praised it very rarely: "The maid is good, but she is a little stupid." This is definitely a good thing.

Apple wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, bowed to Xiao Jinglin, and retreated behind Ren Yaoqi.

"I'll take you to see my mother." Xiao Jinglin took Ren Yaoqi's hand and was about to walk out.

"Jinglin, don't you change your clothes?" Ren Yaoqi looked at her men's clothing that she wore for the convenience of practicing martial arts.

Xiao Jinglin looked at herself, thought for a while, then pulled Ren Yaoqi and turned to her room: "Then let's change her body." This tone was really forced.

Apart from the plaque "Shude Shunhe" hanging in it, Xiao Jinglin's boudoir was completely unsightly. The layout was so simple that it was an outrageously.

Xiao Jinglin quickly changed her clothes and then pulled Ren Yaoqi away: "The gentleman who taught Qin is from my mother's place, haven't you brought Qin here?" Xiao Jinglin saw that Ren Yaoqi's maid was empty-handed.

Ren Yaoqi shook his head: "My piano is kept at home, it's okay, I'll watch you practice."

Xiao Jinglin frowned: "How come that happens? Hongying quickly find a piano and go to my second brother's place. He must have it."

The place where the princess lives is not too far from Yanju Courtyard. It is located on the central axis of the royal palace. This is the residence of the princes and concubines of the Yanbei Palace. It is still not closely related to the beauty, but there are many trees in the hall, which is contrasted with the dark bluestone, with a unique simplicity and elegance.

Princess Yanbei was sitting in the hall talking to someone. Xiao Jinglin let go of Ren Yaoqi's hand before entering to avoid letting people see them pulling and pulling.

Princess Yanbei is very beautiful. When Ren Yaoqi first saw Yun Qiuchen, he felt that the eldest lady of the Yun family was indeed a natural beauty. However, compared to her aunt Princess Yanbei, Yun Qiuchen was still a little worse. Xiao Jingxi and Princess Yanbei were somewhat similar.

Ren Yaoqi went up to greet Princess Yanbei. Princess Yanbei smiled gently and asked her to get up.

"Is this the fifth lady of the Ren family? I often hear Jinglin mention you."

Xiao Jinglin seemed to have restrained her temperament in front of Princess Yanbei, and her voice lowered a few degrees: "I asked Yaoqi to come to practice the piano with me."

The princess nodded and pointed to the middle-aged woman she was talking to before and said, "Then you should learn from Mr. Zou."

At this time, an old woman came in outside and reported that the old princess asked the princess to come over and talk. The princess told Xiao Jinglin a few words, then went in to change her clothes and went out.

The princess said that Mr. Zou was a piano player with an ordinary appearance and a little fat, but her reputation was very famous. Ren Yaoqi had also heard of this person.

"Princess, Miss Ren, let's start." Mr. Zou was so mellow that he spoke in a straightforward manner. No wonder Xiao Jinglin thought she was boring.

Xiao Jinglin and Ren Yaoqi followed Mr. Zou to the side hall next to him, and two pianos were placed opposite each other on the short table in the room.

Xiao Jinglin asked someone to move a few more cases, and the three of them sat around in a word "concave". However, Hongying, who had gone to borrow the piano, came back. She was indeed holding a piano in her hand, and then carefully placed it on Ren Yaoqi's desk.

"Huh? Why did you bring your second brother's 'Great Sage'?" Xiao Jinglin said in surprise.

Hongying said, "The second young master asked him to take it."
