The steward bowed his head slightly and said in fear: "I don't dare to speculate. I just report to your highness what I have heard."
The third prince was silent for a moment and gave a cold smile.
He suddenly realized something.
Why does the side imperial concubine's brotherhood send the leopard to hide the fact that the leopard originally has a master. The fool was worried that he would not tear his face with Hou Fu and send the leopard back, and his benefits would be gone. Although Mo Er really sincerely wanted to please himself and let himself remember the kindness of the Mo family, it was a pity that he was used in the wrong way and was used by others.
If they have an accident at the mouth of a leopard, they can blame the Houfu of Xinyang for it. They say that the Houfu knows what they like, deliberately raises a leopard and lets outsiders know, so that they can send the leopard by other people's hands and finally attack themselves. It can be seen from the medicine in the leopard's ration that they are worried that the leopard will not be mad and will not take the initiative to attack people!
Even the imperial doctor didn't find out what was added to the mutton, but the leopard's anger made him extremely dislike such spices!
Fortunately, leopard domesticated out of the spirit, did not hurt.
Can raise such a leopard
The third prince's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered the incident of crazy donkey hurting people in gambling house a few days ago.
It seems that people have mentioned that the donkey belongs to the Marquis of Xinyang?
"Let's go to the residence of marquis Xinyang." So the third prince said.
The steward's heart swings, but his face doesn't show. He bows down to answer the question and makes arrangements. He's afraid that the prince will change his mind after a moment's delay.
He didn't find the third prince's cold eyes.
The captain of the guard hesitated for a moment and quickly arranged his entourage. He was worried that he would lose because of the shortage of manpower. You know, the bodyguards of Xinyang Marquis's residence have been on the battlefield! Even if the rookie has never seen blood, he was severely cut by his predecessors! It's much better than those people who have been rushing around the capital for many years, concentrating on dealing with the common people
The captain of the bodyguard looked at the two around him. They were still thrown out by Xun GUI's family to practice. They were tall and strong. They were really good fighters. But if they were against the regular army, the gap would be too big, OK!
The group reluctantly emboldened themselves and went out of the house with the third prince's help. The smart captain of the bodyguard also sent someone to inform the five city soldiers and horses department. He thought that if there was a fight later, there must be a persuader.
Hou's residence in Xinyang
Mrs. Hou is showing the old lady a lot of cloth and jewelry. She is accompanied by several girls, all of whom are girls of the right age in the Shen family. Thinking that they will be acquainted with each other in two days, the old lady will take people out to have a look after her birthday. He Miao is also among them. He just feeds the old lady Hawthorn cakes made by herself. He adds some to her mouth from time to time, and occasionally mentions which sister is wearing what color dress. It's very enjoyable. The dumplings lay on her lap and formed a ball lazily.
Mrs. Hou felt that she had been robbed by someone for no reason, but she couldn't stop it. She was very sorry for the child. She specially took out the good things at the bottom of the box to hemiao, and explained to several other girls:
"don't envy hemiao either. I compensated her for that leopard. As for the Marquis's house, if you don't let people bully you! Banban is so sensible. These things are all dead things, but they are not as pleasing as the living creatures! "
You girls also know that he Miao's status is different now. How dare you fight against her? Although she was generous, she sincerely gave her some ideas about what kind of dress to cut and what kind of pattern to embroider.
Some people even thought in their heart: side imperial concubine can't wear a red dress. It seems that it's just a concubine room with a higher reputation. There's still a positive imperial concubine at the top of the prince's mansion. I don't think it's free. It's better to marry a promising student as a positive husband and wife. Isn't it more comfortable than side imperial concubine? I've never heard that the wives of all the governments go out to attend banquets and parties, but I seldom hear that the side concubine goes out!
Such a contrast, in the heart face a little envy, but also eliminate a lot of jealousy.
It has to be said that although the Shen family now has the appearance of marquis Shen, they can't stand Marquis Shen for the time being, but they are very skillful. They are well controlled inside and outside, and even the family dare not make trouble for him. Few of these girls and young masters are crooked. Except for the wonderful couple in the second room of Shen family!
It's probably that their parents are so wonderful that they have been talked about by others. The children in the second room know who is their biggest support. They are not misled by their parents, so they are on the right track. They are obsessed with their uncle's family. At this time, they get together with the girls in other rooms, but they have nothing to do with each other.
Everyone knows that if you want to have a good marriage, it's all on Mrs. Hou!
But there are always some untimely people to disturb the tranquility of the pool.
"The third prince called at the door?" Mrs. Hou looked at the servant who came to deliver the message in surprise.
"Yes, the old slave has already invited people to the hall." The housekeeper replied respectfully.
The girls left wisely and hurried to the back yard from the hall of the old lady's room.He Miao didn't leave. She put down the plate with half a cake left. Tangyuan curled up in her lap, mouth is still moving, half squint, flicked tail.
He Miao patted all the desserts on the fat cat and said something to the old lady. After that, he decided to go with Mrs. Hou. He had enough to eat and drink and ran away by himself.
Mrs. Hou knew that the third prince came to the door for the sake of the leopard. They went to the front yard together with a few instructions and etiquette.
On this day, Ren an is also here. Now he twisted his foot and couldn't move. He didn't have to go to the deodorant Taoist priest. Instead, he came here every day to report. By the way, he got a lot of treasures from the Baron's house. Those are all given by his mother. He Miao must want to give them by his own hand!
Playing with an emerald ornament on the Bogu shelf, the dumplings come back, meow.
"Here comes the third prince?" Ren an squinted slightly.
Qibao jumps out of the ground. "I'll see what they say!"
"No Ren an stretched out his hand to hold it, "Mrs. hou can handle it." The third prince came here for peace. He was stupid to fight against Hou Fu for a leopard.
If you think about it, the other party also knows that it has been calculated. No, they can join hands with the third prince to teach some people a long lesson.
In the hall, the third prince sincerely apologized, saying that he didn't know that the leopard belonged to Houfu. When the leopard disappeared this morning, he knew that it was the second son of Guangan Bofu who had asked for it from Houfu.
In the end, he said that he would compensate the Houfu, and repeatedly promised: "as long as there is information about the leopard, inform it immediately, and try to send it back to the original owner."
Mrs. Hou naturally politely refused.
Finally, when seeing off the guests, a vigorous donkey suddenly rushed out of the corridor beside the ear room!
