Chapter 31

Steward Song handed the roster to Shuang Yuanxiu, and said, "Returning to His Royal Highness, the old slave has just read through it. In our Tongque Garden, the only one whose surname is Feng is Feng Nanny who is in charge of purchasing from the kitchen. Madam Feng is now It's over fifty, so it can't be his sister, and there is no other servant named Feng, and no one whose ancestral home is in Mingzhou, and there is no one named Feng Xixi."

Shuang Yuanxiu didn't take the roster, but said, "Hand it to him."

Steward Song immediately handed the roster to Feng Xiaoxiao, Feng Xiaoxiao looked through it eagerly, and Wen Moyan glanced sideways.

She didn't want to look at the content, but to see if the roster was true or false.

The paper is old, the ink is not new, and the entire book is full of traces of time, and it has been turned over page by page without any missing pages. It seems that this book is not fake.

Could it be that Feng Xixi really doesn't exist in Tongque Garden?

On the other side, Feng Xiaoxiao's heart became colder the more he looked at it. When he turned to the last page, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "How could there be no? How could there be no? Impossible, impossible! My sister must be here!"

Wen Moyan thought of him rushing into the door excitedly just now, and asked, "Feng... Big cousin, why did you rush in just now, is that girl very similar to your sister?"

The maid who was squatting down to pick up the pieces of the tea set shuddered and hurriedly buried her head lower, feeling extremely nervous.

Feng Xiaoxiao glanced at her, then shook his head slightly and said, "No, they are wearing the same clothes."

Speaking of this, Feng Xiaoxiao took out an oiled paper bag from his arms, took out an envelope from the oiled paper bag, and finally took out a portrait from the envelope.

He unfolded the portrait carefully, and everyone saw that there was a picture of a girl admiring herself in the mirror, which was obviously a self-portrait.

The girl was wearing a blue and white dress, which was exactly the same as the maidservant of Tongque Palace.

Prince Shuang Yuanxing glanced at the portrait, without any emotion on his face, he called out, "Old Song, come and have a look, do you recognize the woman in the painting?"

Steward Song stepped forward, shook his head slightly and said, "Return to Your Highness, this old servant has never seen this girl before."

"How could I have never seen her before? She is clearly here. Look, look, this dress is exactly the same!" Feng Xiaoxiao looked a little excited.

The guards of Tongque Garden immediately surrounded him, as if they were going to attack him.

Seeing this, Wen Moyan hurriedly grabbed his arm, and spoke to comfort him: "Brother, calm down, a portrait can't explain anything."

Steward Song nodded when he heard this, and said, "That's right, the maid's clothes are changed every year, and the clothes in each house are not too different. This young master, why don't you go and inquire elsewhere?"

"I..." Just as Feng Xiaoxiao was about to refute, Wen Moyan hurriedly interjected: "Yes, yes, butler Song is right, let's go elsewhere to find out."

After Wen Moyan finished speaking, she looked at Shuang Yuanxiu and continued, "Forgive me, Your Highness, we will take our leave first."

Shuang Yuanxiu thought for a while, then smiled slightly and said, "Okay..."

"Wait!" Shuang Yuanxiu didn't want to pursue it, but Qi Wang Shuang Yuanqi didn't seem to intend to let them go.

Shuang Yuanqi looked at Wen Moyan with a smile, and said in an ambiguous tone: "Miss San is in such a hurry to leave, is she trying to evade responsibility?"

responsibility?What responsibility?
Seeing Wen Moyan's puzzled expression, Shuang Yuanqi pointed to the set of broken tea sets on the ground, and continued: "This is a tribute from Nanzhao Kingdom two years ago, and my father gave it to my second brother. The price... ...a lot of money."

Wen Moyan couldn't help the corners of her mouth twitching, it's not cheap, it's clearly for porcelain!

When Shuang Yuanxiu heard this, he smiled slightly: "Forget it, don't scare the third lady. It's just a set of tea sets. If the emperor smells it in the future, he will say that I broke it myself."

"Oh, that second brother has suffered for others. It's really pity!" Shuang Yuanqi's eyes wandered back and forth between Shuang Yuanxiu and Wen Moyan.

These two brothers made Wen Moyan owe Shuang Yuanxiu a favor by talking to each other.

Not to mention that Wen Moyan sounds disturbing, even Qingyue feels that this matter is inappropriate.

Qingyue thought for a while and asked: "Dare to ask His Royal Highness, I don't know how much this tea set is worth, how about we compensate according to the price?"

"Compensation?" Shuang Yuanqi sneered, and said disdainfully, "What are you? Are you worthy?"

Qingyue wanted to say that even if he couldn't afford it, their Qin Palace would certainly be able to.

But before the words were spoken, Wen Moyan rushed to the words: "His Royal Highness Qi Wang's words are wrong, everything that has a price in this world is worthy of it, and if you can't afford it for a while, it doesn't mean you can't afford it for the rest of your life. May I ask His Royal Highness, how much silver do you need for this set of tea sets?"

Wen Moyan didn't want the prince to take advantage of the situation and catch her.

I also don't want to owe favors to Prince Qin's mansion.

Shuang Yuanxiu looked at Wen Moyan, smiled slightly, and said a number that he thought she couldn't afford: "5000 taels."

5000 taels? !

Everyone froze in place in surprise.

Shuang Yuanqi answered, "How about it? Can't you afford it? It doesn't matter if you can't afford it. As long as Miss San goes in with us and drinks a glass of fine wine, the matter is over. How about it?"

Of course you can't go in.

This Shuang Yuanqi clearly has bad intentions, if she enters the Tongque Garden today, even if nothing happens, rumors and rumors will spread all over the capital before tomorrow.

Hearing Shuang Yuanqi's words, Feng Xiaoxiao couldn't help but angrily said: "What Laoshizi tea set costs 5000 taels, you are clearly blackmailing people!"

Clanging, the guards of Tongque Garden raised their swords again.

Seeing this, Wen Moyan hurriedly grabbed Feng Xiaoxiao's arm, pulled him behind him, and reprimanded him in a low voice: "Big cousin, please don't say a few words, don't offend the prince and King Qi."

Wen Moyan was reminding Feng Xiaoxiao to pay attention to their identities.

Feng Xiaoxiao shut his mouth indignantly.

And Wen Moyan looked at Shuang Yuanxiu, took out a stack of tickets from his arms without saying a word, and handed them to Shuang Yuanxiu.

Shuang Yuanxiu and Shuang Yuanqi couldn't help being a little surprised when they saw the stack of bank notes.

How could a little concubine have so much money?
Wen Moyan felt that her heart was bleeding, but she had to give the money to the prince right now, so she could understand the matter.

This is a tribute, and there are too many places that can be exploited.

Wen Moyan said, "Here is 5000 taels. Your Highness, would you like to count them?"

Shuang Yuanxiu originally wanted to join Wen Moyan's army, but he was countered, and the smile on his face began to become a little forced.

He gave Steward Song a glance, and Steward Song immediately stepped forward to take the bank note. After a simple check, Butler Song said, "Go back to His Royal Highness, the bank note is fine."
