"I can't say we are familiar with each other, but I have met him once or twice in the Hou Mansion. Why did brother suddenly ask about him?"
Song Fu frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment and said, "On the Lantern Festival, the second master of the Jiang family and his friends rescued me and Qianbai. The second master of the Jiang family... was seriously injured."
"Is this happening?"
Song Wan was slightly surprised and asked hurriedly: "How is the second master doing now? Is it in danger of his life?"
"She should still be with Mr. He..."
Afraid that Song Wan would be worried, Song Fu changed his tone and said, "He Lao is an expert in Qihuang. You don't have to worry as long as he is here."
Song Wan had also heard of the name of the judge of Yuan Tai Hospital. After hearing this, she felt a little relieved. She didn't know what she thought of and suddenly said: "The second master has an honest and upright temperament. He is honest and truthful. He is an extremely upright gentleman." , it’s not surprising that he can save my brother.”
In her heart, although Jiang Yan was harsh in his childhood, he was humble and kind-hearted, and now he seems to be brave and heroic, which is really admirable.
"Speaking of which, I feel that if the Hou Mansion was left in the hands of the second master, such a decline would not occur."
"Jiang Xingjian is really lucky to have such a concubine."
Song Wan nodded: "To compare the two is an insult to the name of the second master."
Song Fu looked at Song Wan, but some words remained unsaid.
"Brother mentioned the prince earlier, but did he intend to side with the East Palace?"
"That's true. If the person behind the shooting of the eldest prince is really the prince of the East Palace, I think this person can endure things that ordinary people cannot tolerate, but I don't know what his character is."
"If his character and temperament are acceptable, it would be a clear path to seek refuge in the East Palace."
"It's a hundred times better than supporting Shen Qianshu's rise to power."
When Song Wan heard this, his eyebrows were filled with a hint of distress.
Aunt, she probably doesn’t know what her father and the clan are planning, right? If I knew it, I don’t know how angry I would be.
"Qianbai and Shen Qianshu haven't recovered yet, so it's unlikely that Shen Qianshu will be there..."
Thinking that the other person was just a child, Song Wan swallowed the words back.
"Shen Qianshu can wait, but we can't wait. You also know that those boneless wallflowers in the court are not much better. It has only been a few days, and many people have taken advantage of the funeral of the old lady of the Hou Mansion. loyalty."
"And no one knows the Prince of the East Palace right now. I don't know how long it will take to connect with this person."
On the day of the Lantern Festival, too many people died in Beijing, and the Holy One issued an order to seize the dead in order to maintain the normal operation of the court.
Now the entire court is in chaos, and the two factions that used to fight over the three-five battle are now either waiting and watching, or wandering around like grass on the wall. This situation makes Song Fu very anxious.
After all, it is not yet known whether the Prince of the East Palace is a human or a ghost, but they have no choice.
"East Palace..."
"I had a double relationship with a young eunuch in the East Palace before. I wonder if I can contact the prince through this person?"
After telling Song Fu about meeting Ji Rong, Song Fu said: "This person has suffered all the humiliation in the East Palace and still doesn't leave. It may be because he knows the prince's condition, or he is a confidant of the prince."
"In the palace, the lower the status of the eunuchs and maids, the more no one cares about them, and it becomes much easier to do things."
Song Fu gently twirled his fingertips, frowned and said, "I'll ask my aunt to check on this person."
Song Wan shook his head: "It doesn't work now. We rushed to join the prince as soon as Qian Bai was injured. How heartbroken would my aunt be? If I had waited for a while, I know that my brother is worried about Wan'er, but my father has not let me know today. I'm afraid they won't take care of me during this period of time when I return to Chengyang Marquis Mansion, why don't we wait a little longer?"
Qianbai's serious injury has not yet healed, and she still doesn't know how to grieve when her aunt is taken care of by herself in the palace. She would be heartbroken if she knew that her brother, one of her own clan, would give up on her so quickly.
She couldn't let her aunt feel betrayed by everyone close to her.
"Brother knows."
Song Fu smiled lightly, but had other plans.
Wan'er has a good heart but doesn't realize that the situation is not up to anyone.
If the Prince of the East Palace really endured the humiliation and humiliation for eight years under the eyes of everyone in the harem, it shows that this person has a very tough character. Such people can only be friends and not enemies. If my aunt knew that there was such a prince in the East Palace, she would not be able to extend an olive branch earlier than them.
Song Fu didn't want Song Wan to worry about this, so he said a few words and then turned to other things.
About half an hour later, Heng Wu came to report that the Song Mansion had sent two little girls. Song Fu had someone bring them in. He turned around and said, "Brother, the girl I found for you knows some fists and kicks, so she can help you guard the house." .”
Heng Zhi came in with two little maids. Song Wan saw that the two girls were only fifteen or sixteen years old. One had a round face and the other had a pointed face with heroic eyebrows.
The girl with a round face said softly: "Slave Jin Shu, I have met the young lady."
"My slave Luan Jian, I have met the young lady."
Song Wan saw the two of them and said a few words of sincerity, and asked Heng Wu to take some silver and reward them with money, and then let them go to their own rooms.
After Song Wan was properly placed, Song Fu felt relieved and briefly told her to pay more attention to her safety before leaving.
After seeing off Song Fu, Song Wan informed Heng Zhi Heng Wu about Jiang Yan's injury, and the master and servant sighed again.
"My slave, go and worship the Bodhisattva, and ask the Bodhisattva to bless the second master."
Song Wan nodded, not knowing how to repay Jiang Yan for his kindness in the future.
Not only the Song Wan brothers and sisters were worried about Jiang Yan, but Qingzhai and Su Mian in the Chengyang Marquis Mansion were also very worried about him.
Jiang Yanji has not returned home for many days, and Qingzhai has not received any news about him.
After waiting for many days, Qingzhai finally went to Jiang Yan's study with an expressionless face and pulled out a white jade box from the bottom of the desk.
"what are you up to?"
Su Mian looked at Qing Zhai with red eyes and blocked the door to prevent her from going out.
Holding the white jade box in his arms, Qingzhai said: "Get out of the way."
"No."
Su Mian cried and said: "You want to destroy the second master's most precious thing, right? The second master hasn't come back yet, what are you doing to touch his things? Put them back."
Qingzhai narrowed his eyes to cover the mist in his eyes: "The second master has told me that if any strange phenomena occur in the house or in him, this thing will be dealt with. Now I am also following the order."
"I don't care. No one can touch his things without hearing the second master's order with his own ears."
After saying this, Su Mian stepped forward and snatched the box from Qing Zhai's hand.
"Let go!"
Su Mian held on to the box tightly, and the two of them struggled for a while, and the white jade box fell to the ground due to the tearing movement.
The jade box shattered in response, revealing a small, carefully wrapped bundle inside.
The two have served Jiang Yan for more than ten years. Although his thoughts are very secretive, they cannot hide them from the people around him.
Although they didn't know what it was, they could more or less guess that it was related to Song Wan.
Qingzhai looked at the baggage that fell on the ground, picked it up with red eyes, and threw it into the charcoal basin that had been burned outside the house.
Seeing everything being swallowed up by the flames and turned into black ashes, Qingzhai gritted his teeth and shed a tear.
Su Mian got up from the ground in a daze and cried: "She must know where the second master is. I want to ask her about the whereabouts of the second master."
"Even if the whereabouts of the second master are really unknown, the sincerity of the second master these years cannot be turned into ashes. She...she should know what the second master has done for her."
