The inspector has to go to the government office to report, so there is no need for any small talk.

He directly asked the prince consort to take him home, so Qin Qiong went to the Duke's Mansion first.

On the way, Feng Qi introduced Xiao Qiong to Xiao Yan, saying that Xiao Yan was the prince of the Duke's Mansion and the legitimate son of the Prince Consort and the Princess. In addition, the Princess only had Xiao Yan as her child, while the Prince Consort had four daughters.

Also, the eldest princess does not live in the Duke's Mansion. She lives alone in the Princess's Mansion, so the young master lives in both places.

However, when Xiao Qiong asked the young master which side he lived in more and which side he liked to live in.

Feng Qi thought for a moment and said, it used to be the Princess's Mansion, now it's the Duke's Mansion...

When saying this, Qin Qiong found that Feng Qi looked a little strange, as if there was something he was reluctant to say.

The geographical location of the Duke's Mansion should be good. Anyway, it feels like there are large mansions all around. The street in front of the mansion gate was specially cleaned with water because the young master came back.

Qin Qiong followed Feng Qi into the mansion. Xiaoyan went to the front to meet the Duke, so she followed Feng Qi to Xiaoyan's courtyard here - Zhifengyuan.

Feng Qi said that this courtyard had another name before, and later when the young master wanted to move in, the Duke suddenly changed the name of the courtyard, saying that he hoped the Yan family could start over again, starting with the young master. Feng Qi ended here.

Qin Qiong deeply suspected that the old master was feeling guilty for the sins he had committed in the past.

This courtyard is quite nice. The layout of the houses and the furnishings inside all reveal the inner charm and elegance of a powerful and wealthy family.

However, Qin Qiong felt that, as the son of a duke, this yard seemed a little smaller than she had imagined. It felt like it was about the same size as the yard of the seventh young master of the He family, and not as big as the yard of the eldest young lady.

There are four old women doing odd jobs in the young master's yard, and a maid named Meimei, who is said to be given by the princess and is responsible for the young master's housework. The others are all boys.

So, Xiao Qiong was the first maid to enter the young master's inner room and study, which of course caused a small commotion in the yard.

However, Yang Miaomiao was not here today as she went to the princess's residence.

Therefore, Feng Qi introduced Xiao Qiong to everyone in Zhifeng Courtyard, and especially introduced three guards who were about the same age as him.

They are Ye Luo, Mo Sang and Ting Yu.

Feng Qi said to Qin Qiong with a little grievance: "We are the personal guards of the young master, and we have always been by his side..."

When the three people heard Feng Qi introduce himself to the little girl in this way, they were a little confused at first, but as soon as they heard Feng Qi say this, everyone immediately showed a sad look on their face... It seems that the children have been very wronged.

Qin Qiong looked at the faces of these three people carefully and smiled...

She told Fengqi to go back and talk to these people, and then find a chance to show his loyalty to the young master, and everything would be back to square one. Don't be afraid! She's here.

Because the person in charge of this courtyard was Yang Miami, Qin Qiong did not have her own place to live for the time being, so she went to Xiaoyan's room.

After a while, the four guards came running in, bringing food and tea, and they were very fond of Qin Qiong.

So, Qin Qiong had a good chat with these guards about the gossips in the Duke's Mansion...

The current Duke of Weiguo is Xiaoyan's grandfather. He has four sons and five daughters, all of whom are married.

Because the old lady was still alive, the family had not yet been divided. The Duke of Wei also had a younger brother and his family living in the mansion. There were thirty or forty masters in total. This was why, although the Duke's mansion was not small, the housing was a bit tight.

Among the four sons of the Duke of Weiguo, except for the third son who is the son-in-law of the Duke of Wei but does not have a regular job, the other three do have a job. Although they are not very important positions, they are still official positions. However, they were all donated.

The first Duke of Weiguo was a military general, and the current Duke of Weiguo still has some of the shadow of a military general, and the Duke still serves in the army. But when it comes to his sons, none of them practice martial arts.

If you don't want to learn martial arts, you can learn literature. Fortunately, only the third master Yan in this generation has learned it. He finally passed the imperial examination and got a third place, which attracted the attention of the royal family.

Just like that, the next generation of the Duke's Mansion was completely wiped out.

But fortunately, with the Madam Dowager in charge and the Duke in charge, the Duke's Mansion is still peaceful.

By the time it came to Xiaoyan's generation, the Duke's Mansion seemed to have produced several outstanding children all of a sudden, as the previous generation had been suppressed so harshly. The eldest and second young masters had already entered the Hanlin Academy, the third young master was also famous for his talent, and the fourth young master had even entered the military examination.

The most outstanding person of this generation is of course the fifth young master of the Duke's Mansion, the eldest son of the Duke of Wei, the young master - Yan Baihua.

The young master is a man of both civil and military talents, and he is even more handsome than Pan An, so he truly deserves this title.

"The people in Mo are like jade, and the young master is unparalleled in the world."

After talking for a long time, Qin Qiong suddenly discovered that Xiaoyan's name seemed to be different from the names of other young masters in the mansion.

It seems that all the children of Xiaoyan’s generation have the character “Qi” in their names, such as: the eldest son Yan Qihua, the second young master Yan Qiwen... However, Xiaoyan’s name is Bai Hua.

Speaking of this, Feng Qi and the others were a little depressed and didn't want to talk about it. After all, this was the host's family affair...

But later they thought that Xiao Qiong was now the young master's concubine, so they told her.

It turned out that the young master's original name was also "Qi", but during the princess's pregnancy, the old lady decided to give Master Yan San a concubine, a girl from the old lady's family.

So the princess was so angry that she gave the concubine a sterilizing soup the next day after she came into the palace.

This of course caused a stir.

However, the princess was about to give birth at that time, and the eldest princess was the queen mother's favorite, so of course she couldn't be punished. In the end, the Duke of Guo beat the Third Master with ten whips in front of the old lady.

So the princess moved out of the Duke's Mansion and moved to the Princess' Mansion, and never returned to the Duke's Mansion since then.

The couple, who were originally very harmonious, had a heated argument over how to deal with this matter.

The final result was that on the hundredth day after Xiaoyan was born, the empress dowager issued a direct decree, making Xiaoyan the eldest son of the Duke of Weiguo. At the same time, because of this, his name was bestowed by the emperor himself, "Yan Baihua".

Hearing this really opened Qin Qiong's eyes. There are masters in the royal family... This is possible!

However, think about it, this Mr. Yan San was probably dreaming of living a life of "happiness with two wives", which is why he and the princess had disagreements on how to handle things later, leading to the current discord between the couple.

Otherwise, even if he had suffered ten lashes for the princess, he and the princess should have been more loving.

But now, the princess has only one child, Xiaoyan, while Prince Consort Yan has four concubines' daughters. This means that this relationship, which should have been a happy one, has been filled with unnecessary noises.

It really is...Lan Yin Xu Guo.
