Chapter 856

On the carriage, Zhuo Nan looked at Jing Rong and asked suddenly: "Our mansion is holding a funeral for Qing Wu, is it not suitable to go to the Prince's Mansion to worship the Crown Princess?"

Jing Rong said indifferently: "I have never heard of it."

Zhuo Nan lifted the curtain of the car and took a look outside, then lowered the curtain and looked at Jing Rong and said, "Anyway, let's leave when we go to Shangzhuxiang."

"En." Jing Rong nodded in agreement.

The carriage soon arrived at the gate of the prince's mansion, and the red lanterns were replaced with white ones and white strips were hung.

There are cars coming and going at the gate, and there is an endless stream.

The carriage could only stop by the side of the road, Jing Rong and Zhuo Nan got out of the carriage one after the other.

Qing Yi sat in the carriage and did not get off.

Only Qingshang followed Zhuo Nan and the others into the Prince's Mansion.

As soon as they entered and presented the gift list, the servants of the Prince's Mansion led the couple to the mourning hall.

As far as the eye could see, all the servants had white cloths tied around their waists, and the mansion was full of mourning and joy.

White cloth strips were also hung on some trees wherever he went.

Zhuo Nan followed closely beside Jing Rong.

All the acquaintances they met, the other party took the initiative to say hello to their husband and wife.

Zhuo Nan noticed that Jing Rong was in a good mood, and a glance at the other party was regarded as a greeting.In a bad mood, just ignore and continue to leave.

The servants led them to the gate of the mourning hall and left.

Jing Rong and Zhuo Nan stepped in by themselves, and saw the coffin of the princess in the middle of the lobby.

A rectangular altar was placed in front of the coffin, on which were placed fruits and other offerings, and an incense burner was placed for people to offer incense.

There was a futon on the ground in front of the altar, and people kept kneeling and getting up to offer incense.

On the left side of the coffin of the crown princess, there is a row of concubines in linen and filial piety kneeling.

Kneeling in front of the brazier on the right are several children also dressed in sackcloth and filial piety.

Zhuo Nan had a panoramic view of the entire mourning hall, but did not see the prince himself.Knowing that the crown prince hated the crown princess to the bone, and murdered to vent his anger, he naturally disdained to step into her mourning hall.

Glancing at a few children, I found that the oldest child in the first row was only six or seven years old. He should be the legendary eldest grandson Zhao Haoyang.

Standing behind him was a middle-aged man with an honest appearance. This man...had a child Gu in his body!

Zhuo Nan sensed the existence of sub-gu in this person's body, so he couldn't help but look at him twice more.

Immediately, Jing Rong's voice rang in his ears. "This person is a doctor invited by the Crown Princess for His Royal Highness, named Qin Ba."

Zhuo Nan: "..." Qin Ba?Could it be that he was the eighth-ranked disciple of the Qing Dynasty who had never shown his face before?

Zhuo Nan turned his eyes away and continued to walk forward, looking squarely at the coffin behind the altar of the princess, and then stood in front of the altar.Immediately, a servant offered three incense sticks that had been lit with both hands.

After Zhuo Nan took the incense, he just nodded slightly towards the coffin, and handed the incense back to the servant.

The servant was slightly taken aback, took the incense and put it in the incense burner.

Several concubines who were kneeling below saw that Zhuo Nan was so rude, and they couldn't kneel down and offer incense in person, so they whispered to each other and asked who she was.To be so arrogant, the person who ignored the passing away was the dignified princess!
Even if a smart person has never met Zhuo Nan, he can guess her identity when he sees the scene beside her.

After learning that she is a first-rank lady who doesn't need to salute when she sees the queen mother and the emperor, she stopped looking for trouble.

Seeing Zhuo Nan's rudeness, the princess's natal family dared not speak up!

With the backing of the queen mother behind them, there is no need to kneel down and worship the emperor when they see the emperor.

Asking her to bother to bow down to the princess, isn't it just asking for trouble?

Can a daughter-in-law of the crown princess be older than the father-in-law of the emperor? !

Jing Rong didn't even pick up the incense, and said directly: "The wife of the official can represent the official."

The servant looked at Jing Rong with a cold face and didn't dare to force him, this master is someone their princes fawn on!He can't afford to offend him!He directly passed the lit incense to other guests who came to worship.

The husband and wife turned around and left the mourning hall, and immediately someone invited them to enjoy tea in the main hall.

Jing Rong directly refused, saying that there was still something to do at home, and took Zhuo Nan away.

When Wu An learned that Jing Rong and his wife had come to pay homage to the Crown Princess, he immediately reported to the Crown Prince.

The prince hurried to the mourning hall, only to learn that Jing Rong and his wife had already left.

Wu An immediately explained to Jing Rong and his wife: "Master, Jing's residence is organizing Qing Wu's funeral, and it is indeed inseparable from the person in charge."

The prince nodded slightly, and instead of chasing after him, he glanced at Wu An hintingly.

Wu An understood, turned and left.

Outside the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

Zhuo Nan helped Jing Rong's hand to get on the carriage.

Just as Jing Rong was about to step into the carriage, Wu An's shout came from behind him. "Master Jing, wait!"

Zhuo Nan who was sitting in the carriage did not lift the curtain, but pricked up his ears.

After Wu An approached, he bowed his head to Jing Rong and saluted. "Master Jing's mansion is holding a funeral and even took the time to come to pay homage to the crown princess. The next official came to thank the prince on behalf of the crown prince."

Jing Rong said indifferently: "Prince, you are being polite. Only a maidservant died in the government's mansion, but the crown prince lost his wife. How can they be compared."

Wu An: "..."

The corner of Zhuo Nan's mouth in the carriage curled up into a narrow smirk.Jinghu's words are more irritating than hers, ha ha!

Wu Qiangjian was stupid, pretending that he didn't understand the deep meaning of Jing Rong's words, he looked at Jing Rong and said, "The crown prince asked the officials to come and remind Mr. Jing. Last night, the eunuch Quan, who was next to the fifth prince, went to the prime minister's mansion first, and then Went to Situ Mansion."

After hearing this, Jing Rong's expression remained unchanged, and he said flatly, "Thank you for the kind reminder from the Crown Prince, and take my leave."

"Your Majesty is being sent off respectfully!" Wu An cupped his hands again, watching Jing Rong get into the carriage, Qing Yi drove away quickly in the carriage, and then turned back to the mansion to report to the prince.

In the carriage, Zhuo Nan looked at Jing Rong and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Go to the prison to see the Fifth Prince or go back to the manor?"

Jing Rong looked at Zhuo Nan's pretty eyes, curled his lips and said with a smile, "Go home."

Jingfu, Muqiu Courtyard.

Master Jing stood in the courtyard and walked up and down.

Qiushi was lying on the beauty couch and was resting with his eyes closed.

The maid, Xiao An, was beating her legs.

The sound of Mr. Jing's footsteps walking up and down to disturb the tranquility was heard again, Qiu finally couldn't bear it anymore and suddenly opened his eyes to stare at Mr. Jing. "You got fleas? Walking around?"

Master Jing froze, looked anxiously at Qiu and complained: "You won't go to the East Courtyard to see what's going on, and you won't let me go?!"

Qiu closed her eyes again, disapprovingly said: "Isn't it just that a lowly maid died? The mourning hall is a place full of bad luck. I don't let you go for your own good."

Master Jing's eyes widened and he retorted: "What do you mean a lowly servant girl died? Do you know that because of this matter, the five princes have all been imprisoned!"

Qiu opened her eyes again, glanced casually at Master Jing, took a sip from the tea cup, then looked at him and said, "Why are you making such a fuss? It must be that the eldest daughter-in-law is unreasonable and has wronged the Fifth Prince.

Within three days, the truth will be revealed, and the fifth prince will be released.

Anyway, Rong'er is capable, if the Fifth Prince and the Crown Prince are vying to curry favor, what can happen, you are the only one to worry. "

Master Jing stared at Qiu Shi, dumbfounded and had no words to refute.
