Chapter 253: Cause and Effect
Lin Zhixuan came to Li's house only three days ago, and received a letter from Xue'an, the old lady asked Lin Zhixuan after dinner, and Lin Zhixuan respectfully said her relationship with Xue'an's cousins, as well as the love of growing up together.
The old lady glanced at Lin Zhixuan in surprise when she heard this, but she didn't say anything, just asked her to prepare well. But the people of the Li family knew about this layer, and their eyes changed when they saw Lin Zhixuan, they hadn't paid attention to this guest lady a few days ago, but they didn't expect that there would be such a big background.
Originally, he was very arrogant with Qiu Ju and Gu's mother, always looking like a hillbilly, and he didn't care about the things in Lin Zhixuan's house, but now that this incident has come out, the people in the family have gone to Lin Zhixuan's house to offer their courtesy first.
Lin Zhixuan saw that only Xue An came to visit, but there was no Chu Nan, so she knew the purpose of Xue An's visit.
I thought it was for the letter that Xue An asked Xue An to send to Wei Mingxu when he was in Jinling.
Xia Lan's body gradually improved, but after Chun Tao entered Beijing, her body became weaker day by day, as if she was not accustomed to water and soil, but she couldn't ask for a doctor in an open and honest way, and only let Dongmei take care of her.
Xia Lan was forced to serve by Lin Zhixuan's side, and Gu's mother and Qiu Ju had already followed Lin Zhixuan's instructions, often walking outside, and touching the bottoms of Mrs. Li's grandmothers to some extent.
After all, Lin Yaxuan has not let Yurui and Qiu's mother idle these days, although she is lying on the bed and can't move.
Now that Wei Yingxiang inherited the prince's title, the matter is in full swing in the capital, and Xue'an's identity is also rising, and they are all in the capital, the wives and grandmothers of the Li family have given Wei Xue'an enough face, and the eldest lady personally went to the second gate to greet her, and led her to the old lady's house to ask for peace, and talked for a long time.
Xue'an is weak, it has rained a few times in the past few days, the weather is getting colder, Lin Zhixuan entered Beijing for a few days, Xue'an only got cold, so I can't ask what is going on, now it's better, and the wives and grandmothers of the Li family are really tired, and after a while, their faces don't look good.
Lin Zhixuan knows Xue'an, although the Li family treats each other with heart, but after all, they are not as thoughtful and considerate as their own family.
Lin Zhixuan persuaded loudly: "Sister An has never been weak, and after talking for most of the day, I am afraid that Sister An is tired, so it is better to go to my house to rest for a while, and then come to the old lady for dinner at noon." ”
The third lady was quite surprised when she heard this, and felt that it was very rude for Xue An to be so delicate, but the old lady nodded and said, "It's okay." ”
and let his subordinates serve carefully.
Xue An was tossed for most of the day, and she was also weak, and when she finally entered Lin Zhixuan's house, she finally fell down with a pale face.
Lin Zhixuan and Sizhu helped Xue An to the bed very worriedly, Qiu Ju poured a cup of soothing tea, Sizhu fed Xue An half a cup of wine, and lay on the bed for a while, only to see Xue An's face gradually change blood.
Lin Ruoxuan, who came back with her, was also frightened, and asked if she wanted to ask for a doctor.
Xue Anqiang smiled and said: "Don't get in the way, I'll just lie down for a while, you don't have to surround here anymore, it's good that Zhixuan is here." ”
Although Lin Ruoxuan was still worried, she looked at Wei Xue'an's appearance, as if she had come to find Lin Zhixuan on purpose, so she didn't stay long, only persuaded her to rest for a while, and then led her subordinates out.
Lu Lan watched Lin Zhixuan send everyone, and even the silk bamboo beside Xue An retreated, and he frowned a little puzzled.
Xue An watched everyone in the house go out, so she looked at Lin Zhixuan so fixedly, waiting for her to speak.
But there are some things that Lin Zhixuan really didn't think about how to tell her. It was also embarrassing to see her looking at herself like this, so she smiled and opened the conversation first, and asked, "Why didn't Chu Nan follow you?"
Xue An saw Lin Zhixuan playing Tai Chi with her, and she didn't push too hard, but said lightly: "Chu Nan is a little unhappy with the eldest girl of the Li family, so she never comes to the Li Mansion. ”
Lin Zhixuan was slightly surprised when she heard this: "Who is the eldest girl of the Li Mansion, why haven't I seen it." ”
Xue An said: "The eldest girl and the second girl of the Li family went to their grandfather Liao's house as guests and stayed in the Liao family for a while. ”
Lin Zhixuan twisted her eyebrows.
She has inquired in the past few days that the eldest wife of the Li family is surnamed Liao, and she is the eldest daughter of Liao Qing, a cabinet bachelor and a secretary of the household department. It's just that I didn't know that she had two unmarried daughters.
Lin Zhixuan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "What grievances can she have with Chu Nan?"
Xue An originally thought that Lin Zhixuan would ask her which Liao family was first, but now looking at her appearance, she clearly knew that she might be familiar with the bureaucrats and nobles in Beijing, why did she know, who told her, and what she was going to do with all this.
Xue An's face gradually turned cold, but she still replied to Lin Zhixuan's words: "When the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs discussed Prince Jing to establish the princess, the Ministry of Rites presented Chu Nan, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs discussed the eldest girl of the Li family.
The emperor meant to favor the eldest girl of the Li family at that time, and almost gave the marriage, but the prince refused. Chu Nan has not given up all these years, and has never been married, and the eldest girl of the Li family is not afraid of Gu getting older, so she waits like this. You know Chu Nan's temperament, the more the eldest girl of the Li family is like this, the more Chu Nan regards her as an enemy. ”
When Lin Zhixuan heard this, she was quite surprised, but because it involved Wei Mingxu, Lin Zhixuan didn't ask any more, she knew that Xue An was here to ask about the letter she gave Wei Mingxu, and now she just wanted to avoid the important and talk about Chu Nan, so she let this matter go, but she didn't want to go back again.
Lin Zhixuan looked at Xue An's expression, and was afraid that she would go around like this again, and her doubts were even heavier, so she had to get back to the point, and said with a wry smile: "But the eldest girl of the Li family is not in the house." ”
Xue An saw that Lin Zhixuan was serious about talking to her, and then she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, Zhixuan, you should know why I hid it from Chu Nan." ”
Lin Zhixuan sighed, looked at Wei Xue'an and said calmly, "What do you want to ask?"
Xue An looked at Lin Zhixuan's frank appearance, she had thousands of doubts in her heart, but she didn't know where to start, she only held Lin Zhixuan's hand tightly: "Ah Zhi, don't you have anything to tell me?"
Lin Zhixuan hesitated for a long time before saying, "That day in the Wang family's stone forest, Prince Jing once saved my life. And in Jinling, when the earthquake was chaotic, I overheard someone talking about someone in the capital who wanted to be unfavorable to him. I was very afraid of this incident, and hesitated all the way back to Hangzhou, and later, thinking of his life-saving grace, I wanted to send him a letter to warn him, hoping that he would escape. ”
Xue An was very surprised when she heard Lin Zhixuan's words: "That's it?"
Lin Zhixuan said: "That's it! You can ask Brother Yu about the Jinling Stone Forest, he has always been with me and Prince Jing." ”
Xue An listened to Lin Zhixuan's words, and her body, which had been tense, slowly relaxed and lay on the bed: "So that's the case." ”
Lin Zhixuan looked at Xue An, who was relaxed, and said with a faint smile: "Yes, that's it, but who would have thought that you didn't send that letter for me, but after all, I wrote such a letter, and with such a thought, I can be regarded as repaying him for saving his life." ”
Xue An looked at the void quietly: "No, I sent the letter for you." ”
Lin Zhixuan glanced at Xue An in surprise.
Xue Ancai continued to murmur: "If it weren't for that strange letter, how could Prince Jing have secretly returned to Beijing with only three or five entourages, and everyone thought that he was still in Jinling for disaster relief." ”
Lin Zhixuan's body shook suddenly: "What did you say? He left his entourage and secretly entered Beijing because of my letter?" )
