After His Majesty was reborn, the poor little girl in his previous life was spoiled to death
Chapter 92: Seal the Mansion!
Ning Er looked at Zishan with a smile: "What do you understand now?"
Zishan just laughed and said nothing, and pushed Ning Ermo to stand in the wind. She was about to turn around and go back to the house, when suddenly a panicked maid ran down from the front and said as soon as she saw them, "Oh no!"
The two of them were startled. Ning'er saw that the maid was in a hurry and came out of Mrs. Zhu's upper room. She thought something serious had happened and asked quickly, "What happened?"
The maid was about seventeen or eighteen years old. When she saw Ning'er, she did not greet her but just said anxiously, "Old lady..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Ning'er's heart was hanging. Zishan beside him said anxiously: "Ancestor, please tell me, what happened to the old lady?"
The girl then blurted out, "The old lady wants to close the mansion!"
"What?" Before Ning'er could say anything, Zishan jumped up.
Seal the mansion! This is a big deal!
She saw that the girl was really dumb and couldn't speak, so she couldn't get anything out of her for the time being. She just asked Ning'er to go back to her room quickly, and she went to find out the news in a hurry.
Even though Ning'er had never heard of the mansion being sealed off before, she knew something serious had happened from the reactions of the two. She grabbed Zishan and said, "Don't panic. If the mansion is really sealed off, we shouldn't move around freely now."
Then she looked at the maid and asked, "Did the old lady send you out? Just you?"
The girl said, "Sister Feicui sent me to report to the young masters in the mansion. She and Sister Xiuyu went to the Madam and the Second Master in person, and Sister Manju went to the old aunt."
Ning'er was shocked when she heard this. All the maids in the old lady's room had been sent out, which showed that this matter was of great importance.
She hurriedly asked, "When she sent you out, did the old lady say anything? Sister Feicui asked you to pass on the message, so what did you say?"
The girl was not a very clever person, but she was honest. Seeing Ning'er's detailed questions, she answered everything in detail:
"I didn't see the old lady, I just know that she was very angry in the inner room, and even Sister Xiuyu was scolded. Then several older sisters hurried out to discuss how to find someone in the front yard to seal the mansion. They sent me to talk to the young masters."
When Ning Er heard this, she grabbed Zishan and said calmly, "Sister, listen to me. Don't go anywhere now. Let's go back to the house."
Then he thanked the maid who delivered the message and said, "This sister has something to do, please go and do it, we can save you the trouble."
As soon as she and Zishan entered the room, she told Lingzhi: "Count all the maids in our room, and tell them to put down their work and stay in their rooms. They are not allowed to walk around casually, stay alone, or talk to anyone randomly."
Seeing that the girl was so serious, Lingzhi didn't have time to ask the reason, so she quickly accepted the order and went to count and gather the servants.
Ning Er then said solemnly to Chun Cao: "From now on, you must follow me closely and not wander off on your own."
Chuncao is different from Zishan and Lingzhi. She followed him in from outside the mansion. If something really happened, she would be more vulnerable than these maids, so he had to be extra cautious.
Chuncao didn't know what was going on at the moment. Although she looked confused, she still agreed.
Ning Er finally relaxed a little. She sat in front of the dressing mirror and saw that her hair was loose and her clothes were casual. She turned around and told Zishan to pick out a set of formal clothes for her to wear. "Put your hair up again and wear whatever you need."
Chuncao and Zishan did not dare to be careless. They hurriedly followed Ning'er's instructions and helped her wash and change her clothes from head to toe. They also combed her hair carefully and dressed her properly.
Ning Er looked at herself in the mirror and saw that she looked like she was dressed casually for a banquet. She said with satisfaction, "This is good enough."
She sighed. It was rare for her to have a relaxing day, but problems kept popping up one after another, and she ended up not being able to do anything at all. When the sun was about to set, she had to start all over again to get dressed. She should have gotten ready right after she opened her eyes.
Chuncao then dared to ask what happened. Ning'er told her what happened before. She looked at Zishan in shock and asked, "What big thing happened that made the old lady want to close the house?"
Zishan was worried: "Over the years, except for the time when the old marquis suddenly passed away, no matter what happened, I have never seen the old lady make a big fuss to seal the mansion."
As they were talking, Lingzhi came up and reported to Ning'er, "Miss, I have checked everything one by one. Everyone is here. I asked them to put down their work first. The three of them should rest in the back room in pairs. They are not allowed to go out without permission."
After hearing about the seal of the mansion, she was shocked at first, but then calmed down. After all, she was the oldest and had to be more patient: "Miss, the seal of the mansion is nothing more than a few things. Either there is news in the mansion that must not be leaked, for fear that the servants will spread it; or there is unrest outside, and the mansion must protect itself. Or..."
Thinking of this possibility, Lingzhi's eyebrows twisted into a "川" shape: "Even if there is a thief in the mansion, I am afraid he will escape and I want to catch him in the urn!"
Either way, it's unnerving.
Ning Er said, "We don't need to guess. We just need to follow the old lady's instructions and guard the door strictly. It's useless to worry about it now."
Lingzhi agreed, that's right, we are inside Songshou Hall, closest to the old lady, we will know once the dust settles.
The master and his servants made up their minds and simply sat quietly in the house, finding some things to do to pass the time.
After an incense stick of time had passed, Ning'er's mind drifted to the woman that Aunt Ye mentioned. If the mansion had not been suddenly closed at this moment, she would have been unable to hold back and went to find Aunt Ye to ask for clarification.
Suddenly, there were two knocks on the door outside. Lingzhi got up quickly and saw that it was an unexpected person.
Ning Er stood up: "Sister Xiang Ming!"
Xiang Ming was still wearing a pine green round-necked jacket, a green silk vest, and a pine flower sweat towel. She called out calmly, "Hello, Miss Ning."
It was as if the chaos and war in the mansion had not affected her at all.
Ning Er breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously: "Sister Xiang Ming, why are you here now?"
Xiang Ming pulled her to sit on the couch together: "The Marquis entrusted me with the key to the front yard. The old lady wants to seal the house. I will rush over to report to her after I finish the front. I came to see you by the way."
She looked around Ning'er's room and saw that everything was in perfect order without a trace of clutter. She nodded and smiled, "It seems that I was worrying for nothing. The girl is indeed decisive."
Ning Er knew that she was a subordinate that the Marquis trusted very much, and she was different from ordinary maids: "Sister, don't laugh. When we heard about such a big thing, we were at a loss."
Xiang Ming looked at Ning'er and said, "Miss, you did the right thing. If you mess up now, you will end up causing trouble."
She brought Ning'er the news they were most concerned about at the moment: "Do you know what happened?"
"There's a thief in the old lady's room! What was stolen was a box of treasures that the old lady had carefully selected and stored away over the years!"
"The worst part is, there are imperial items inside!"
