Xiao Qingjie went back to his father's courtyard to pay his respects, and then went directly to Wang Shu's room. They all said, "One month lasts, and one hundred days lasts." Wang Shu is now out of confinement and needs to be raised for a few more days.

Xiao Qingjie mostly lived in the front yard on weekdays, and occasionally called his maid to serve him. Wang Shu and Xiao Qingjie were a young couple. Although Xiao Qingjie was mediocre in ability, he was quite honest and kind, unlike other princes who were dissolute and immoral. In the palace alone, the concubines of Prince Wei Yuan had many daughters from concubines.

Wang Shu was half leaning on the couch eating cakes. Because she was still weak, there were more charcoal fires in the room than elsewhere. When she saw Xiao Qingjie coming over, she quickly asked the maid to help him take off his coat.

Xiao Qingjie sat side by side with her and put the box on the table. Wang Shu glanced at her and said with a smile: "Unfortunately, my brother-in-law was still here with me just now. He is hungry now, so I asked the wet nurse to carry him down to breastfeed him. You have some tea, and I will ask someone to check if it is okay."

Xiao Qingjie shook his head and waved the maids in the room to get out.

After everyone had left, she pointed to the wooden box and said, "Wang Chong gave me this today. He said it was given to you by your mother."

Wang Shu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's in it?"

"I feel a little bit confused. It’s weird, I’ve never opened it before,” Xiao Qingjie said.

Wang Shu then picked up the box and smiled: "I'm afraid that Erlang has something to give to me, and I asked him to borrow it in my mother's name. Although Erlang doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason, he won't be a ferocious beast."

She said . Opening the wooden box smoothly, there was only a piece of paper inside. Even Wang Shu immediately stopped laughing. With Wang Chong making such a big fanfare, the content on this paper may be very tricky.

Wang Shu and Xiao Qingjie looked at each other and opened the book. There were only a few words on it, but it recorded the cause of death of Xi Po from a certain family in Beijing. Both of them were confused after reading it. In the end, Wang Shu said: "Erlang is very thoughtful and will not hand this thing to you for no reason. Go and find out if there is any connection between Xi Po and the Duke's Mansion."

Xiao Qing said thoughtfully. It was her delicate heart that revealed the crux of the matter in one sentence: "I'm just a commoner's wife, how much trouble can she cause."

However, Wang Shu frowned and felt uneasy. Rather than saying it has something to do with the Duke's government, it's better to say it has something to do with my mother.

She thought about it and said, "You should have nothing to do with the prince's matter. I have my own concerns."

After saying that, she folded the note and put it in her sleeve.

Xiao Qingjie nodded and said to her: "You have to take good care of yourself now and don't worry too much."

The couple said a few more words. After a while, the wet nurse brought the foster brother over. Xiao Qingjie teased the young boy for a long time before he arrived. Go run errands in the front yard.

It was very difficult to investigate Xi Po's case. Wang Shu asked her personal maid to go to the neighboring houses and spend a few taels of silver to inquire about it. Then she asked about the day when the old woman died. In addition, the old woman had taken over the palace of the Duke. happy event.

Wang Shu was so smart, when the girl came back to report, she connected the things almost instantly, and after thinking about it for a while, her expression suddenly changed.

Xipo's death was related to her mother. Why was Xipo poisoned to death by her mother on her wedding night? Wang Shu couldn't think of any other reason other than murder to silence her.

Mother was only afraid of doing something secretly.

At that time, apart from mother and Da Lang, the only people in the mansion who could be called masters were Er Lang and Er Lang's daughter-in-law. Erlang is the Duke of the country. If something happens to him, the officials will definitely investigate him thoroughly. Since his mother recognizes him, she has no reason to harm him.

Erlang's daughter-in-law has a rift with her mother, but she herself is not very happy. In the past, her mother wanted her aunt and young daughter Qin Jin to marry Wang Chong, but Wang Chong was unwilling and married Lu Yuexiang instead. Later, her mother mentioned that Wang Shu thought her uncle's family was getting worse and worse and wanted her daughter to be her concubine. Even if she is not the first wife, her fate in the future is uncertain.

Who would have thought that her mother would be so confused? She didn't know that Wang Chong was in the Ministry of Punishment and the most vicious things he saw.

If word spread, not only the mother, but also the Qin family and her would be doomed. One raised such a daughter, and the other was taught by her. Even for her children, if Xiao Qingjie takes over the throne in the future, these children will definitely be criticized for this matter, and the elder man may not be able to get the title.

But these were just her guesses after all.
