As soon as the news came out, Yan Bei was in an uproar.

Not long ago, there was news that Prince Xiao was going back to Yanbei to celebrate the concubine's birthday. How long has it been? Xiao Shizi was seriously injured. Xiao Jingkang had lived in the capital for more than ten years as a proton, and no accident happened sooner or later, but it happened at this juncture, and everyone knew that there must be something tricky in it.

When Ren Yaoqi heard the news, she was a guest at Mrs. Xu's Ouyang's home. Mrs. Xu was invited to participate in the compilation of the music scores and Yanbei folk songs in "Yanshanhe Tuzhi". Work with her to organize some of the collected fragments.

When the two were discussing the repair of a broken book, Xu Shanchang came back in a hurry.

These days, Ren Yaoqi has been to Xu's house quite a lot, and this is the first time he saw Xu Shanzhang in broad daylight. He usually stays in the academy, so he couldn't help being a little surprised.

And Xu Shanchang came back to find Mrs. Xu, and regardless of Ren Yaoqi's presence, he directly told the story of Xiao Shizi's assassination and serious injury. This news stunned Mrs. Xu and Ren Yaoqi who were present.

"When did this happen? Where did the news come from?" Mrs. Xu asked hastily.

Mr. Xu Shan seemed to be used to discussing everything with his wife on weekdays, so he said immediately after hearing the words: "After the son was assassinated, the people around him immediately sent the news back to Yanbei. , and heard it."

Mrs. Xu frowned: "How is your son's injury?"

Only then did Xu Wanli turn his head to look at Ren Yaoqi, paused, and said, "Depending on the situation... I'm afraid it's not optimistic."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xu was also silent, but there was obvious worry between her brows.

When Ren Yaoqi heard the news, her heart was also turbulent. In the last life, Prince Xiao died suddenly, and everyone tended to speculate that the cause of his death was the hand of the court. But now there are still a few years before the death of Prince Xiao in the previous life, how could it be at this time?

Ren Yaoqi knew in her heart that if Xiao Shizi really died at this time, the next contest between Yanbei and the various forces in the imperial court might start earlier. First of all, not to mention anything else, once Xiao Jingkang died, the position of the eldest son of the Yanbei Palace would cause a series of big shocks.

King Yanbei only had two legitimate sons, Xiao Jingkang and Xiao Jingxi. When Xiao Jingkang passed away, the position of son fell to Xiao Jingxi. When Xiao Jingkang was around, Xiao Jingxi, the frail second son, could still keep a low profile. When Xiao Jingkang was gone, would Xiao Jingxi still be able to do whatever he wanted like before? As for Xiao Jingxi's marriage, he still has the final say? At that time, no matter whether it is the imperial court or the Yanbei Palace, they will be cautious about the position of Mrs. Shizi.

Mrs. Xu sighed, turned her head to Ren Yaoqi and said, "Let's go here first, I'll send you back first."

Ren Yaoqi is not in the mood to sort out the music score now, so she nodded and left Xu's house.

The news of Xiao Jingkang's assassination became known to everyone only two days later. The people in Yanbei all hope that Young Master Xiao can recover. After all, Second Young Master Xiao is not in good health. If Young Master Xiao dies young, people worry about whether Second Young Master Xiao can survive. Although the Xiao family still has Xiao Heng's room, the popularity of Xiao Shizi and Xiao Jingxi is obviously higher than that of Xiao Jingyue, so everyone did not consider making Xiao Jingyue the Yanbei Shizi for a while.

It's a pity that although the wishes of the people in Yanbei are good, Xiao Shizi still can't make it through in the end. Half a month after the news of Xiao Shizi's assassination came back to Yanbei, there came the sad news that Xiao Shizi passed away due to his injuries, and Yanbei mourned unceasingly.

As expected by Ren Yaoqi, once Xiao Jingkang died, more people would be eyeing Xiao Jingxi.

The Yun family is also planning on this matter at this time.

Originally, the Yun family had already planned to consider Han Yunqian and Yun Qiuchen's marriage. Once the news of Xiao Jingkang's assassination and death was confirmed, the Yun family planned to change their strategy.

Yun Qiuchen was the candidate for the eldest concubine cultivated by the Yun family with great efforts. If the imperial court hadn't insisted on giving Xiao Jingkang a marriage, Yun Qiuchen would have married Xiao Jingkang. Now that Xiao Jingkang is dead, Xiao Jingxi will naturally take over as the eldest son, and Xiao Jingxi has not yet married a wife, so the Yun family began to consider the matter of marrying Yun Qiuchen to Xiao Jingxi.

Mrs. Yun Da said: "Mother, the Yanbei Palace has never let go of the marriage between Ting'er and the princess. The Yanbei Palace may not have the intention of marrying a woman from the Yun family again, right?"

Old Madam Yun sipped her tea and said in a low voice: "One moment is another moment! The eldest son is dead, and the top priority of Yanbei Palace now is to settle the marriage of Second Young Master Xiao. , it’s too late. Looking at the whole of Yanbei, is there anyone more suitable than Qiuchen? Just wait and see, the princess will invite you to chat with her soon.”

"Then the Han family..."

The old lady Ren shook her head: "I didn't formally settle down with the Han family before, so it can't be said that our Yun family backtracked. And even if we want to get married, it doesn't have to be Qiuchen. Doesn't the Han family have an unmarried daughter?" ?”

"Mother means to let Ting'er marry Miss Han?" Mrs. Yun frowned, "I have met that girl from the Han family a few times, although she can be regarded as gentle and well-educated, but when she matches Ting'er, she always feels It's a bit lacking in tolerance, a little petty."

Han You is good in everything, but he is too shy, he speaks softly and blushes easily, but Yun Wenting is the eldest son and direct grandson, and he will inherit the Yun family in the future, so Han You's character is a bit overwhelming scene.

Old Madam Yun said: "Ting'er can't do it, isn't there still Fang'er? Miss Han's temperament is docile, and it would be perfect to match Fang'er as a thorny head. But this matter is not urgent, if it is a marriage with the Yanbei Palace If it is done, there is no telling how the Yun family will change in the future. Let's worry about Chen'er's affairs first, and see the Han family's marriage later!"

Mrs. Yun agreed.

After Mrs. Yun came out of Mrs. Yun's yard, someone called Yun Qiuchen over. Mrs. Yun never kept secrets from her daughter. Yun Qiuchen was very smart and could often help Mrs. Yun make up her mind.

After Yun Qiuchen came, Mrs. Yun told her about Mrs. Ren's plan. Yun Qiuchen was not surprised at all after hearing it. She was raised according to the standards of a princess since she was a child. To be honest, she couldn't be Yanbei. Princess, Yun Qiuchen is actually not used to it. So Yun Qiuchen didn't worry about her marriage with Han Yunqian.

Because of Xiao Jingkang's accident, Ren Yaoqi did not go to Xiao Jinglin for a while, Xiao Jinglin just sent Ren Yaoqi a letter, confirming the fact that Xiao Shizi was seriously injured. After hearing the news of Xiao Jingkang's death, it was even worse for Ren Yaoqi to go to Yanbei Palace to cause trouble.

On the second day after hearing the news of Xiao Jingkang's death, the Rong family sent someone to invite Ren Yaoqi to present to the palace.

In fact, the Rong family did not invite anyone to invite Ren Yaoqi, and Ren Yaoqi also planned to go to the Prince Xian's Mansion. There were some things that she could not bother to ask the people in the Yanbei Palace, but she could ask Rong's.

So Ren Yaoqi saw someone come to invite him, and went to Xian Wang's mansion without saying a word.

As soon as she entered the door, Ren Yaoqi felt a different atmosphere in Prince Xian's Mansion than in the past, but she couldn't tell the details. The sound of babbling and singing operas was still faintly heard in the mansion, but in the past these erotic sounds of silk and bamboo sounded very noisy, but today it seems that Xian Wang Mansion is very quiet and empty, and those sounds feel a little far away.

Rong Shi was drinking tea while waiting for Ren Yaoqi in the main room. When Ren Yaoqi entered, Rong raised his head and smiled at her, waved to her, and said plainly: "Here you are? Come and sit down. "

Ren Yaoqi sat down in front of Mrs. Rong as she said.

Rong said straight to the point: "Did you know the news of Xiao Jingkang's death?"

Ren Yaoqi nodded and waited for Rong's next words.

But after taking a sip of tea, Mrs. Rong didn't continue this question, but said with a smile: "You did a good job last time." Mrs. Rong was referring to the joint work between the Lin family and the Lei family.

Rong put down the tea bowl and touched Ren Yaoqi's head, her hand was very warm just holding the tea bowl.

"You are better than I imagined, and grandma is finally relieved."

After putting down his hand, Mrs. Rong took a palm-sized red sandalwood carving box on the kang table and handed it to Ren Yaoqi.

Ren Yaoqi opened the box and saw a pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants inside, somewhat similar to the pair that the Rong family gave Ren Yaohua when Ren Yaohua got married.

There were still a few banknotes pressed under the jade pendant, Ren Yaoqi put the jade pendant away and took out the banknotes to have a look, and found that there were five thousand taels in total.

"You and Yaohua's two pairs of jade pendants were rewarded by the former emperor. After all these years, I only have these two pairs of jade pendants left here. I don't have anything good for you other than that. You Keep it well, although I gave you more than Yaohua, but Yaohua probably won't care."

After saying this, Rong fell silent, lowering his head slightly, not knowing what he was thinking. Ren Yaoqi looked at her, but did not speak after all. Some things don't need to be asked, Ren Yaoqi already understands.

Not long after, King Xian came in from the outside, Ren Yaoqi immediately got up to salute, and gave up his seat to King Xian.

King Xian nodded and sat down with Rong.

"I'll send someone to invite my mother. She may not have visited my grandfather and grandmother for a long time." Ren Yaoqi said.

King Xian glanced at Rong Shi, but Rong Shi shook his head: "I asked you to come today because I want to give you something, it's getting late, you should go back earlier, I won't leave any food today."

Ren Yaoqi looked at Xian Wang and Rong's, was silent for a moment, then knelt down: "The granddaughter kowtows to the two of you instead of the mother."

King Xian and Rong Shi did not refuse, seeing Ren Yaoqi finished kowtowing, Rong Shi pulled her up.

"Go and say hello to your uncle and aunt, and then go back."

"Yes, grandma." Ren Yaoqi obediently responded, then turned and left.
