Chapter 123
In the afternoon, Qing Ming, who had gone to the General's Mansion to wait for news, came back.

"After the general came out of the palace, he went directly to Jingzhao Yin's mansion and has not returned yet."

Ye Chaoge nodded, it was as expected.

The Xu family is the mother's family of the current empress. Uncle Xu Xiaoguo is a baby born to Mrs. Xu's family in her fifties.

The relationship between the General's Mansion and the Xu family is not bad, but no matter how good it is, the one who was beaten was Uncle Xu Xiaoguo, the lifeblood of the Xu family, and he was beaten in the street, and the most important thing was that Ye Cibai did it first.

In any case, it is impossible to understand so quickly.

For Ye Cibai, she is not very worried. No one will do anything to him when his grandfather is here. Besides, Master Zuo of Jingzhaoyin Mansion, after the last rumor, she has some understanding of this person, and she has also heard that He has done many things.

Most of the common people's evaluation of him is that he is not afraid of power, and he is a good official who makes decisions for the people.

Ye Cibai is in Jingzhao Yin's Mansion, and it will be nothing if Mr. Zuo is there.

What's more, there is Wei Yun.

Thinking of this, Ye Chaoge cut off everything.

"Did Uncle Tian find out anything?" she asked.

"It's basically the same as what Madam Liu said before. No one heard what uncle Xu Xiaoguo said to the young master except the two of them."

No progress, although expected, but still somewhat disappointed.

"However, Tian Bo found out that Uncle Xu Xiaoguo was drinking in Yuyaolou last night..."

"What time is it, Qingming, don't be so secretive, and tell the lady everything you know at once." Hongchen drank from the side.

Qing Ming feels aggrieved, she just said it a little bit.

Without further delay, he hurriedly told Ye Chaoge the investigation results that Tian Bo wanted her to convey.

"Drink flower wine with the second son of the Chang family at Yuyaolou?"

"Yes, Tian Bo deliberately went to find the singer who accompanied him last night. They didn't pay attention to it at the time. They only knew that Uncle Xu Xiaoguo was very happy and said something, just wait and see Ye Cibai's excitement."

Waiting for Ye Cibai's excitement?
The second son of the Chang family?
Ye Chaoge tossed a few key words over and over again, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Hongchen, go and take out the name I told you to remember earlier."

Ever since she learned that Pei Lan's mother and son were making small moves, she made a list of the people she came into contact with.

Who makes friends with them, who knows their identities, and who looks down on them...

List them all clearly.

Sure enough, Chang Xing was found on the list that he had made.

Chang Xing is the second son of the Chang family, a well-known playboy in Beijing.

Chang Xing made friends with him, and then made various contacts, Ye Chaoge slammed the table and stood up.

She got it!

I know why Ye Cibai was so impulsive that he lost his mind and beat Uncle Xu Xiaoguo in the street!

If her analysis is correct, then Chang Xing must have known the background of the concubine, so he told Uncle Xu Xiaoguo, that's why he said 'wait for Ye Cibai's excitement'.

And what happened on the street today must be that Uncle Xu Xiaoguo provoked Ye Cibai, which made him lose his mind and beat that guy.

"Does grandpa know these things?"

"Before the maidservant came back, Uncle Tian went to Jingzhao Yin Mansion to inform the general."

Hearing this, Ye Chaoge breathed a sigh of relief, but before she could breathe freely, she froze.

She knew about the existence of mother and child in the outer room, so she sorted out everything, that Uncle Tian...

"Have you mentioned this matter with Tian Bo?" Ye Chaoge asked.

Qingming shook her head again and again, "How dare a servant without Miss's order."

so……

Perhaps, it's not just Tian Bo, but his grandfather...

Thinking of the red plums and red dust that her grandfather gave her before, and what she said at that time.

Suddenly, a bold guess emerged in my mind.

Perhaps, from the very beginning, my grandfather knew about it...

This guess is very bold, but with the emergence of this guess, many things that cannot be figured out gradually become clear.

……

In the evening, Qing Lan, who went to Jingzhaoyin's mansion, also came back.

In the end, as Ye Chaoge had guessed before, there was no progress. Qi Jiren and the Xu family were at a stalemate. Although it was not to the point of tearing apart their faces, there was a big conflict over their respective concepts of punishment.

From Qing Lan's mouth, Ye Chaoge learned that Wei Yun had also been staying in Jing Zhao Yin's Mansion.

The existence of Wei Yun is tantamount to Ye Cibai's second layer of protection. If the Xu family wants Ye Cibai to look good, with Wei Yun around, Ye Cibai will be fine.

The current queen has no heirs, and the crown prince is the future heir. This face, even if the Xu family doesn't want to give it, they have to give it.

What's more, Uncle Xu Xiaoguo just received a beating, and Ye Chaoge paid special attention to it, it was all skin and flesh, he just suffered a little bit, and never hurt his muscles or bones.

If the Xu family bites too hard, it is bound to offend two people at once, one Qi Jiren and the other the crown prince.

The Xu family would not be so stupid.

Although, on the bright side, Ye Cibai was at fault, but the Xu family must know exactly what happened, if Uncle Xu Xiaoguo hadn't provoked him first, how could he have been beaten.

Knowing that Ye Cibai is a rough man who has been on the battlefield and experienced iron blood, Uncle Xu Xiaoguo, a serious dude, still ran to provoke him, so it's strange that he didn't get beaten.

After thinking about this, Ye Chaoge raised his heart for a day and slowly let it go.

In the dead of night, when Ye Chaoge was about to go to bed, Hong Chen knocked on the door and came in, "Miss, Tian Bo is here, the general asked you to come over."

It was said that Ye Chaoge put on his clothes and was led by Hong Chen and Tian Bo, and quietly went to the General's Mansion in the dark.

in the library.

Qi Jiren stood there with his hands behind his back, and when he saw Ye Chaoge approaching, he asked her to sit down.

What was mentioned first was not the matter of Ye Cibai, but the fact that she came to the mansion to look for him during the day.

"Grandpa already knew about it, Qingxi Street."

Qi Jiren glanced at her approvingly, "You can find out about this so quickly, grandpa really didn't misunderstand you."

A long time ago, he had discovered that his granddaughter was really smart, but after all, he just came back, so he couldn't reveal too much about many things, of course, there was also the meaning of observation.

But along the way, she did not disappoint him.

Hearing this, Ye Chaoge knew that his analysis was correct, and Qi Jiren really knew about the existence of the mother and child in the outer room on Qingxi Street.

Seeing her silent, Qi Jiren thought he was angry at his concealment, sighed, and explained: "Ge'er, grandpa didn't deliberately conceal..."

"Grandpa doesn't need to say too much, Ge'er understands and understands."

If it were her, she would have made the same choice.

She is his granddaughter, but he is different from her. She has a previous life experience, so she can accurately guess the people around her, but Qi Jiren does not.

For him, she was raised outside since she was a child, and she didn't understand her temperament and other things.
