Chapter 26
"It doesn't matter." Lu Heng said leisurely, "It's only one day, and it's not too short of time. But you only have one. If you leave any root causes, it's more than worth the loss."
Wang Yanqing pursed her lips, the more Lu Heng said this, the more guilty she felt. Lu Heng took advantage of the fact that there was no one around, and said to Wang Yanqing: "Next we are going to Liangwei's mansion, they should not know me, but just in case, don't call my name, official position in front of people, call me brother That's alright. Now we are the servants of Chen Yuxuan's house, a thousand households of Jinyiwei. We went back to our hometown with our master to get married. We passed through Baoding Mansion and learned that Liang Wei had passed away, so we came here to express our condolences. You don't have to say anything when you enter Liang Mansion, you just need to observe those People's expressions. If there is something wrong, keep it in mind and let me know when no one is there."
Wang Yanqing nodded and promised, "Okay."
Chen Yuxuan's Jinyiwei costume was very eye-catching, no one dared to provoke them on the way, and the group quickly arrived at Liangfu. When Liang Wei's family heard that Jin Yiwei from the capital was coming, they were surprised and happy, and hurried out to greet him.
After entering Baoding Mansion, Lu Heng returned to the back of the team without saying a word to Chen Yuxuan. With the commander standing behind Chen Yuxuan, he was under great pressure. He bravely stepped forward to socialize with the Liang family, daring not to behave in the slightest. Lu Heng was in the crowd with a relaxed and natural expression. He didn't move forward, but went to the carriage first and helped Wang Yanqing to get off.
Wang Yanqing opened the car door and was surprised to find Lu Heng standing outside. She glanced in front of her and said in a low voice, "Second brother, I'll just do it myself."
Many Jiao young ladies do not go out the door, do not walk through the second door, and even get in and out of the car and have to be helped, but Wang Yanqing has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and this level of exercise is nothing to her. What's more, ordinary maids just need to help her. Lu Heng is the commander of Jin Yiwei.
Lu Heng shook his head. Although his voice was not high, his tone was very firm: "Your injury is not yet healed, so you can't be careless."
If it was delayed any longer, it would attract the attention of others, so Wang Yanqing had no choice but to hold Lu Heng's hand and get out of the car slowly. Lu Heng's hand was warm and strong, and he supported her with one arm without shaking. Wang Yanqing landed smoothly and didn't feel the slightest collision. After she stood up, she found that Lu Heng had no intention of letting go, so she whispered, "Second brother."
Lu Heng let go of her hand. Wang Yanqing breathed a sigh of relief and silently looked around under the cover of the crowd.
Chen Yuxuan and the Liang family were chatting in front of them. There were three old men standing at the front, who seemed to be elders of the Liang family. Behind the clan elder was a woman. The woman wore sackcloth and filial piety. Although there was no decoration, it was obvious that she was well-dressed. Next to her was a boy of fifteen or sixteen, who was no different from an adult man, but his body had not yet developed, and the clothes on him were a bit empty.
Wang Yanqing easily guessed that the woman was Liang Wenshi, the successor of the deceased Jinyiwei Qian household Liang Wei, and that young man was probably Liang Wei's youngest son, that is, Liang Wenshi's biological child. Wang Yanqing glanced at the crowd in front, and asked Lu Heng in a low voice, "Second brother, it's not that Liang Wei has two sons, why didn't he see the eldest son?"
Although Chen Yuxuan is not a big man, he is still a thousand households from the capital. Liang Wenshi, as a female family member, has welcomed him at the door. If the young master of the Liang family is at home, how can he not show up? Lu Heng shook his head slightly, and said, "Wait in and see."
Wang Yanqing's current status is that of an ordinary servant in the Qianhu Mansion. She can't wear too gorgeous clothes. She only wears a white jacket with a stand-up collar. It is impossible for a "maid" to wear fox fur, but Lu Heng is afraid of freezing Wang Yanqing, so although the color of this dress is plain, the lining fabric is very good, especially Bijia, the interlayer is filled with fine tribute Cotton with a ring of rabbit fluff on the outside. Wang Yanqing's neck is slender, even with the white stand-up collar, her neck is still showing a slender part, lining her slender chin and white cheeks, making her more beautiful and soft.
She is such a stunning beauty standing at the door, which is much more eye-catching than the brocade guards brought by Chen Yuxuan. Chen Yuxuan thought to himself that it was almost time to greet him, so he brought the "attendants" into the mansion. Chen Yuxuan went to the main hall to offer condolences. Lu Heng and Wang Yanqing, as entourages, did not need to worship and could move freely.
Liang Wenshi and the Liang family were all around Chen Yuxuan, and no one paid attention to them. The servants of the Liang residence knew that they were following a distinguished guest from the capital and did not dare to stop them. Lu Heng and Wang Yanqing walked around the house at will, which was more convenient for investigation than revealing their identities.
Liang Wei's family is a hereditary family of thousands, and is a fifth-rank military attache. His rank is not high, but if he does not leave Baoding Mansion, it is enough to live a very good life. The Liang family’s house has three entrances in the front and back. The first one is the main hall, the living room, and the place where Liang Wei’s two sons lived. At this moment, it has been converted into a mourning hall. Although Liang Wei’s coffin has been buried, the white flags, lamps and candles have not been removed. The second entrance is where Liang Wei and his wife Liang Wenshi lived, separated from the outside by a hanging flower door; the third entrance is the embroidered building of Miss Liang Da, the embroidered building is in the northeast corner, and there is a small garden to the west.
In the past few days, Liang Wei's funeral has been held, and many foreign guests have come to the door. There are people coming and going in Liang's house, and everything is in a mess, which is convenient for Lu Heng and Wang Yanqing. Lu Heng seemed to walk aimlessly, and when he arrived at a clean and uninhabited place, he asked, "How is it, what did you see?"
Wang Yanqing had only seen the Liang family once at the gate of the mansion, but the first face was often the most important, and the face-to-face effort was enough to explain a lot. Wang Yanqing was afraid that someone would eavesdrop on him, so he approached Lu Heng and said in a low voice, "When Liang Wenshi saw Jin Yiwei coming to the door, his eyes widened, his eyebrows pressed down, his upper and lower lips slightly opened and closed, and when he heard Chen Yuxuan say he came to the door to offer condolences, She breathed a sigh of relief, her lips finally closed, but her eyes were still rolling. Even if Jin Yiwei's visit was really not a good thing, she was too scared."
