Chapter 593: Auntie is looking for you
When a few people came out of the mourning hall, they saw four other people walking towards them.
"You are here." Shen Lan raised his hand and greeted them.
Gu Zhaoxi smiled at her: "What are your identities?"
Shen Lan looked at Luo Zijia helplessly and shrugged her shoulders: "Jia Jia and I are both maids serving the eldest lady."
So, it was only after they had served the eldest lady her meal that the two of them had the time to come out.
Qi Chuzhao pursed his lips and said, "I am serving in the courtyard of the eldest young master."
Joseph: "In the fourth wife's yard."
Now, the identities of several people have been clarified.
As for what to do next, to be honest, Gu Chaoxi didn’t have any ideas in mind.
"We haven't seen Ji Ze yet, so we don't know what the situation is in this plane."
From the time she came out of her yard after dinner until now, she has not met any important people.
Occasionally, one or two people were seen on the road, and they were all servants serving in the yard.
There was nothing else to do except bow to her.
Pei Yan frowned and thought about it carefully. There was indeed nothing worthy of their special attention right now.
"The old lady has passed away, but I don't think I've heard that Ji Ze is ill now. The haunting incident must have happened recently, right?"
"Also, we have to figure out the relationships among the other people in the mansion."
The two of them talked back and forth, completely ignoring the existence of others.
After a while, Gu Chaoxi licked his lips and came back to his senses.
"I think we should go through the whole house."
"So big." Shen Lan smacked his lips.
This house is too big. After she and Luo Zijia came out of the main house, they walked around for a long time before they got to the front and met Qi Chuzhao.
Now it is a bit complicated to figure out the locations of other people's courtyards and the relationships between the characters.
Gu Chaoxi also knew it, nodded, and watched carefully: "Although it is difficult, we can't just give up like this."
"Let's do it in two groups."
The house was big, and the eight people were divided into two groups. They went inside from both sides, and then came back from the main road in the middle.
Pei Yan, Gu Chaoxi, Violet, and Luo Zijia are in the same group.
There are four people left in a group.
After dividing, walk to the ends on both sides from the current position, and then start exploring the inside.
Because lunch time is relatively early, most of the owners in the yard are sleeping at this time.
They didn't go in to disturb them, but just found out who lived in this yard and then immediately went to the next yard.
Gu Chaoxi looked up at the sky and continued walking forward.
Just as he was about to turn the corner, Shen Yao saw a man walking out of the yard in front of him, being greeted by a maid.
He immediately reached out to stop the person behind him and stepped back, only secretly looking around.
The man was wearing Chinese-style clothes, was very tall, and looked cheerful and tough.
Someone in the yard said, "Fourth Young Master, please don't come to my place. Be careful not to be misunderstood. I can't explain myself clearly."
The man smiled and bowed slightly towards the inside: "What the fourth concubine said is right, I will pay attention to it in the future."
The fourth young master and the fourth concubine?
Shen Yao frowned and stepped back a little.
The man walked away from the other side, and then the maid who had sent him out went into the yard.
Shen Lan leaned forward, a little curious: "This fourth young master seems to be the son of the second wife, right?"
That is, he is Gu Chaoxi's current younger brother.
What, Ji Ze’s son fell in love with his fourth wife?
This is somewhat interesting.
There was no movement over there, so the few people started walking forward again.
When passing by the fourth concubine's yard, he took a look inside.
There was no one in the yard, the door of the house was open, and the painting hanging opposite the gate could be seen.
Judging from the voices, he should be in the room with the maid.
Shen Yao looked away and looked in the direction where the Fourth Young Master had just left: "It would be even better if we could figure out the relationship between the Fourth Young Master and the Fourth Concubine."
But there is no evidence for this kind of thing, and it is not easy to find.
Even if there are people who know the truth, such as the maid of the fourth concubine, it will be useless if they are unwilling to speak.
More importantly, the maid is not alone now.
The group of four continued to move forward.
What Gu Chaoxi cared more about was actually the clock tower.
Among the scraps of information about General Ji Ze’s mansion, there are few records about the bell tower.
In one of the few sentences, it was said that the bell tower was used to punish people, which means that if someone in the mansion made a mistake, he might be locked up in the bell tower.
"It seems that you can't just enter the bell tower casually?"
Pei Yan looked towards the bell tower. The door of the bell tower was locked, but the platform on the second floor could be reached.
They walked up from here and standing on the second floor, they could almost overlook the entire general's mansion.
The approximate location of each courtyard can be seen clearly.
"The door was locked and there was no sound from inside."
Gu Chaoxi took a look at the lock on the door, which was the kind that required a long key to open.
There was no sound inside, it was very quiet.
Presumably, this key should be in Ji Ze's hand, or in the butler's hand?
She pursed her lips, walked to the edge of the second-floor platform, and looked down.
The bluestone road below appeared before her eyes. It would be nice to stand here and enjoy the scenery on a snowy day.
In the distance, a little maid was walking towards them hurriedly. She looked unfamiliar, someone they had never seen before.
The man walked closer, looked up at Gu Chaoxi who was standing beside him, and spoke in a respectful tone.
"Second Miss, the Second Concubine wants to see you."
Oh, she is a biological mother of this identity.
"Well, okay." She nodded, and the little maid was waiting for her downstairs.
Turning around, Gu Chaoxi looked at Pei Yan and said, "Ah Yan, you guys continue. I'll go first."
"be careful."
Although he didn't know what would happen in this plane, Pei Yan still gave a reminder.
When she went downstairs, the little maid stood by and waited obediently.
Seeing her coming down, he nodded slightly at her and led the way.
After turning a few corners, we walked into a yard.
There were some flower petals placed in bamboo baskets in the yard to dry. There was also a recliner in the corner of the yard. A beautiful woman was lying on the recliner with a heater in her arms.
Hearing the sound of someone entering the yard, she opened her eyes lazily.
"Xiangxiang, I told you not to get too close to the first wife's two sons."
Gu Zhaoxi was slightly startled: "I know, but I just happened to meet you, it's not good to just turn around and leave."
The woman lowered her eyes and waved for her to come over.
He looked her up and down, and a smile slowly appeared on his lips: "It's a new era now, do you want to study abroad?"
"Me?" It is said that Ji Ze did not really want his daughter to study, but hoped that his son would be both virtuous and talented.
