Chapter 1363 gave me a hairpin

The handwriting on the veil is messy and also very brief.

Xiao could only write in powder and blood, which shows that she had limited time and could only reveal so much information.

Xiang Weinan looked serious after getting the handkerchief, knowing that he would have to see Mr. Xiao again.

He also didn't expect that after he met the emperor when he came back and learned from the emperor that the second prince might still be alive, he turned around and learned about the whereabouts of the second prince from the Xiao family.

This matter was of great importance. Xiao clearly had no space of her own, and her parents were even treated as hostages to control her.

But fortunately, Xiang Weinan is the son-in-law of the Xiao family, so it is the most normal behavior for him to visit his father-in-law and his wife.

So a few days later, Xiang Weinan bought a lot of supplements and went to Xiao's house again.

In front of the watching maid, he calmly asked Mrs. Xiao to stay in the Xiao family and take good care of her father-in-law.

Everyone knows that the marriage between Xiang Weinan and Xiao was forced by the latter, and his attitude towards Xiao is not surprising.

Fortunately, the Xiao family didn't know that he had been helping the emperor all along, and the Xiao family thought that marrying Xiao to him would be a way to win over people. Unfortunately, before it was too late, the previous emperor died and the new emperor ascended the throne.

But for this reason, the Xiang family was not classified by the emperor as one of the three princes and marginalized.

Instead, for the sake of the old man, the new emperor transferred Xiang Weinan back to the capital with the help of Xiang's family. Even if his official position after returning was not high and was just a sinecure, it would still be better than living in a small county as a county magistrate.

powerful.

The Xiao family and the third prince all felt that this was done deliberately by the new emperor to show the officials in the court, so that everyone would know that he was broad-minded and nostalgic.

Just because the Xiao family didn't know Xiang Weinan's position, they didn't strictly prevent him from contacting the Xiao family.

Xiang Weinan's stay at Xiao's house was not very long and he left soon.

But before leaving, he gave Mrs. Xiao a jade hairpin as a way to appease her.

After Xiang Weinan left, the hairpin was taken away by the maid and inspected. There was nothing wrong with the hairpin and was returned to Xiao.

But when Mrs. Xiao went to the toilet, she took off the hairpin, removed the bead on the hairpin, and then hollowed out the hairpin.

The inside of the hairpin is filled with powder of the same material. You can poke the powder out with a few pokes.

The originally solid hairpin became hollow, and then Ms. Xiao hid the charcoal pen given to her by Xiang Weinan inside the hairpin.

With this charcoal pen, it will be much more convenient for Xiao to write something.

Now she has her own space except when she goes to the toilet, and is monitored at other times.

But even if I need to go to the toilet, the two people are waiting outside, urging me from time to time.

But with charcoal, Xiao's actions became smoother.

It was only when Xiang Weinan came over the next time and received Xiao's letter that he finally understood the cause and effect of the matter.

After Mrs. Xiao returned to Beijing from Jiangyuan County, she went back to her parents' home to visit her parents the next day.

This time, I saw the figure of the second prince who was supposed to have drowned.

The figure flashed past, and it was just a silhouette. Xiao herself was not sure. She immediately suspected that she had seen it wrong, so she didn't take it to heart.

Unexpectedly, the Xiao family quickly replaced Aunt Gu and her confidant He Wen, and assigned two maids to take care of her personally, and even prevented her from returning to Xiang's home.

This move actually confirmed Xiao's suspicion.
