After having an easy lunch together, Gu Qing Li arranged the residences of the three new wives and had Yu Ying and Jin Shu take them to the Yu Lan Xuan where Xin Zi Yao used to live.
Jinshu had sent Lu Linghui out a few days ago after the heavy rain, and the chill was still fresh in his ears. He occasionally raised his sleeves to cover his cough as he said to her maidservant Mingzhu in a disdainful manner, "Stay away from her. If you get the cold, then don't serve me anymore."
Jin Zhui paused, then replied with a smile that was not a smile, "We are from the Residence of the Mo King, our king has not been in the imperial government for many years, and has not been lacking in the imperial government. With such a small amount of monthly salary, we naturally cannot afford to hire too many servants, nor can we afford to raise too many idle people.
Wu Yu's face grew longer, as if he was unhappy.
Ming Zhu knew that her young miss did not care about her status and was not willing to bicker with her servant. She coldly laughed, "It is the Duke's Mansion after all. Our Young Miss is an only daughter, and when she was in the Residence, she had five or six maids waiting on her. "
Jin Shu said coldly, "But you are currently at Prince Mo's mansion. In our mansion, other than the main wife, side concubine, and four other wives, we have too many free people. Perhaps the prince will be looking after you."
"You …" Ming Zhu was so angry that her expression changed.
"Alright, shut up." Cheng Ying's cold eyes looked at Wu Yu, "We're all married into the Royal Mansion now. If you can't control your maidservants, then be careful of causing trouble for yourself."
Wu Yu pouted but did not say anything, and pulled Ming Zhu to follow behind the brocade lady.
Cheng Yingzhi followed Yu Ying into the Rain Tide Pavilion. Looking around the courtyard, she was quite satisfied.
"Who used to live here?" Cheng Yingzhi could also see that the yard was decorated very richly with bright green flowers. As she stepped into the house, she saw that the curtains were slightly moved, and the makeup on the dressing table was neat and clean.
"This was originally Madam Xin's residence, but now …" Yu Ying and Jin Shu had different personalities, she was always respectful and humble, and her tone of voice was also much more gentle.
The expression on Cheng Ying Zhi's face changed. She was not completely ignorant about the matters of the Mo King's Manor.
"Dead, right?" Cheng Ying Zhi's face turned dark and felt a chill on her body. It was as if a cold wind was blowing from nowhere, causing her to shiver.
Yu Ying hesitated.
"How did he die?"
Amongst the Fourth Wife, Xin Ziyao had died the most miserable death. Not only had she been strangled to death, but she had also been hanged on the spot. Although Yu Ying said some vague words, Cheng Ying Zhi also understood. The more she heard, the more her hair stood on end. She screamed, "No, I don't want to live here!"
"This servant can't decide on this matter." Yu Ying took a step back, "Madam, if you are not satisfied, you can go find a secondary wife or a prince."
Cheng Yingzhi composed herself. "Where's your wangfei?"
Yu Ying smiled. "Our princess is always ill, and no outsiders are welcome." If Madame hadn't wanted to go … Let me remind you, our wangfei is suffering from... "Pulmonary tuberculosis.
Cheng Ying Zhi violently coughed a few times, but was unable to say anything. Suddenly, he thought in his heart, could it be that this concubine was deliberately making things difficult for her? His heart suddenly went cold.
On the other side, Jin Zhui and Wu Yu entered the Yu Run Xuan where Qin Sang lived. Although the decorations weren't as extravagant and extravagant as Yu Lan Xuan's, Qin Sang liked plants, and the garden was filled with all kinds of flowers and trees.
Wu Yu turned around in satisfaction and said, "The environment is so elegant, who planted so many flowers?"
"Xing'er has been taking care of this courtyard ever since Madam Qin left."
Wu Yu asked casually, "Who is Madam Qin?" She was obviously not like Cheng Ying who had come prepared and was clueless about the matters of the Mo King's Manor.
Jin Shu gave a strange smile. "Madam Qin? She was once a concubine serving under the prince. She was both beautiful and charming, and liked to tattoo on her body. She was like a wild and thorny rose."
Wu Yu felt a little uncomfortable, and looked at her coldly: "Then Your Highness should like her a lot right? Why did he leave again? "Where did you go?"
"Oh …" She … she strangled Xin Wangfei to death with her own hands. In order to cover up the evidence, she had a rose tattooed on her body … "
"Wh …" "What?" Wu Yu trembled and opened his beautiful eyes wide in fear. Strangle Xin Wudao's wife? Murder?
Jin Shu was still using a strange yet slow tone to speak with a smile, "Yeah, later on, she was sent to court and sent to prison in the Ministry of Justice …" "Aiyo, this servant doesn't know what happened next. Madam, you have to ask our prince if you want to know."
Ah!" Wu Yu covered his face and let out a tragic cry, "She … She can't be dead, right?
"Shouldn't the death penalty be imposed for murder?" Jinshu tilted her head and pretended to look at her innocently.
"No, no, no, I don't want to live here!"
Wu Yun almost crawled and rolled his way out of the Rain Tower, just in time to run into Cheng Yizhi who was also screaming as he ran out of the Rain Tower.
Yu Ying followed closely behind. She seemed uneasy yet submissive. She said gently, "Lady Cheng, don't make things difficult for this servant …"
Wu Yu looked at Cheng Ying Zhi with a sobbing tone and suddenly rushed forward to grab her hand as if she was his only backer. He said with a trembling voice, "Cheng …" Sister Cheng, I don't live here, I want to live with you! "
Cheng Ying turned pale and looked back in shock, shaking his head: "I also can't stay, then … …" That Yulan Xuan is Xin … "The place where Hsin-Sian Fei died …"
Wu Yu's crying suddenly stopped, his face turned pale as he stared at her, unable to say a word.
"Where's Zhou Zhen?"
Zhou Zhen asked about the direction of Yu Mu Xuan and then walked over.
In the past, the other wives lived next to each other. Yu Muxuan was the last courtyard in the row, and although it looked simple, it was very clean. When Zhou Zhen walked in, she saw a maid and a servant cleaning the courtyard until it was bright.
"Good morning Madam."
Zhou Zhen nodded at them politely and asked, "What are you guys called? Is she the one in charge of this courtyard? "
"Yes, Madam. This servant is Jinsi."
"This little servant is at ease."
"Did someone live in this courtyard before?" Zhou Zhen stepped into the room, walked around and walked out, frowning slightly.
Before the makeup stage, there were still unused remnants of rouge and water powder. There were also some seemingly quite expensive jewelry in the dowry.
"Zhou Zhen, quickly come out!"
Cheng Ying Zhi and Wu Yu appeared at the entrance of the yard at the same time, each with a defeated look on their face.
Zhou Zhen looked at them strangely. "What's the matter, sisters?"
"This... This... All the courtyards here have died! "
Cheng Ying Zhi's lips trembled, her eyes looking at Yu Ying and Jin Shu became a little fearful. What kind of place was this Prince Mo's mansion? The four courtyards here had all been dead?!
Yu Ying laughed, "What you two madams said is not right. Yu Muxuan has never died. Although Madam Ling has also died in the past, she committed suicide. Furthermore, she died in the Windy Pavilion, not here."
Ah!" Wu Yu was the weakest, when he heard that someone had died in King Mo's own courtyard, his eyes turned white, and he fainted.
Ming Zhu was unable to support her, and seeing that the two of them were about to fall, Zhou Zhen's servant, Little Chan, went over to help. Only then did the two of them barely manage to support her.
