The third lady asked Li if she knew who was spreading rumors, and she said she didn't know. Li really didn't know, she couldn't intervene in the outer courtyard, and the people in the key positions in the inner courtyard were replaced by the third lady.

Mrs. Chu San said, "Okay, I'll let people check, and if it's verified, I'll deal with her." ”

It was verified in half a day, and the source was actually a rough woman in the Li family's courtyard, and many people testified that it was this mother-in-law who said it. The third lady let her be beaten ten boards and thrown out.

Li was so angry that he hid in the courtyard and didn't dare to go out.

The days flickered to the 25th, and Chen Afu, who had pretended to be sick for three days, also got up. She has to leave tomorrow, and she still has some things to do, so she can't continue to pretend.

She got up early in the morning and led people to make golden silk cakes. I made some first and sent two pieces to the masters of each yard for breakfast, but of course I didn't send them to the Li family.

After breakfast, he continued to do it, and sent someone to send the forty yuan for the queen mother to An Rongtang, and the twenty yuan for the Rui Wangfu had just been packed into a food box, and the people from the outer courtyard came to report that Princess Rui had brought the second son here.

Chen Afu hurriedly changed his clothes, cleaned his hands, and went out to greet him. As soon as I got out of the main door, I saw Princess Rui leading the nurse holding Li Xuan and a few subordinates into the courtyard wall.

Chen Afu walked a few steps forward and said with a smile, "You guys are just in time, I'm about to have someone send some snacks to Xuan'er." ”

Seeing that Princess Rui was smiling reluctantly, and if she looked closely, her eyes were red, and she seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

Chen Afu was stunned for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "Yo, what's wrong?"

Princess Rui smiled again, and several people entered the east house and invited Princess Rui to sit on the kang and the girl to tea. put Li Xuan on the kang, took a piece of golden silk cake and put it in his hand, and let the subordinates retreat.

Chen Afu asked, "What's the matter, did you encounter difficulties?"

Princess Rui nodded, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and cried in a low voice. Li Xuan saw that his mother was sad, and he also opened his mouth and cried, and the golden silk cake in his mouth was spit everywhere.

Chen Afu hurriedly took Li Xuan into his arms, helped him wipe his face, and asked, "Princess, what's wrong with you?"

Princess Rui wiped her tears, took Chen Afu's arm and said, "Grandma Chu, now, only you can save my family Xuan'er." ”

Chen Afu was stunned, "How do you say this?"

Princess Rui cried, "When I went home, I told the prince about your method, and the prince was also happy, saying that the royal sister can take out her own green leaf agarwood to treat Xuan'er, the father is the grandfather, and the queen mother is the grandmother, and they will definitely be willing to ......."

But the prince of Danrui didn't want to ask them directly, so he went into the palace to find Concubine De and asked her to ask the emperor or the queen mother for a green leaf agarwood to treat Xuan'er. However, Concubine De was unwilling, and reprimanded Prince Rui, saying that he was unfilial. Green leaf agarwood is more precious and has great benefits to the body of the emperor and the queen mother. Even if the younger generations have it, they have to take it out to be filial to the elders, so how embarrassed to reach out to the elders to ask for it. Not only did she not ask for it herself, but she also didn't allow Prince Rui to ask for it......

The more Princess Rui cried, the more sad she became, "The emperor and the queen mother don't have one root, if there is only one, I won't have that kind of thought." I know that Li Chao grew up in front of her mother, she likes Li Chao more, and she definitely hopes that Li Chao will inherit the title in the future. But what about my Xuan'er? How innocent is he! He was obviously stupid by Li Chao's biological mother, but he still wants to let the son of that wicked woman inherit the title. The reason why the wicked woman gave up her life to do bad things must have thought of this step. Grandma Chu, please, I beg you, take my Xuan'er to the countryside, how did you bring the eldest sister of the Chu family in the past, just take him......"

Chen Afu looked at Li Chao in his arms, the little guy still remembered her and was very clingy to her. watched Princess Rui cry, but her hands were tightly grasping Chen Afu's clothes, and even the golden silk cake was lost. This child is not very stupid, he is much better than the little girl Chu at that time, as long as he is corrected properly and let him slowly get out of the terror, the disease can be cured. She also likes Li Xuan, sympathizes with him, and wants to help him.

But his identity is too sensitive, and she is afraid of attracting more attention to Tangyuan. What's more, she can't do such a big thing.

Chen Afu said in embarrassment, "Princess, I also like Xuan'er, but ...... Taking him to Tangyuan, the responsibility is really great. He is of royal blood, and I am afraid that if we don't cure him well, or if there is something else, our family will not be able to afford it. ”

Princess Rui wiped away her tears, her eyes were full of perseverance, and she said, "Grandma Chu, I have already thought about it, and my prince is also willing." Instead of letting Qi Xuan'er live a stupid life, it is better to let him go to the countryside with you and give him a hope. If it can't be cured, we don't blame you, if there is really anything missing, it is his life. I always fought for him, and I have no regrets. What's more, I'm afraid that after the death of me and the prince, Xuan'er will not live long even if he is stupid, after all, his mother has a vendetta against Li Chao for killing his mother. ”

When Princess Rui's words came to this, Chen Afu really couldn't find any other excuse, and said, "This matter is very important, I can't be the master alone, and I have to ask the elders." Besides, can the emperor agree to this?"

Princess Rui said, "My prince went to the emperor yesterday to make a statement, and the emperor said that as long as you want, I will hand over Xuan'er to you." ”

She has been crying with Lord Rui every day these days, and Lord Rui also feels sorry for this sister-in-law, hoping to cure the child's illness. The two have already discussed, Princess Rui went to ask Chen Afu, and he went to ask the grandchildren of the Chu family.

Although Lord Rui is ridiculous, he is extremely smart. He is "willing to degenerate", not only because he is a good woman, but also because he has a clear attitude, and he is not interested in that position. He had been to Fuyuan and saw Chu Hanyan, and his medicine was also found in Fuyuan, and he had a gut feeling that Chen Afu was not as simple as it seemed. Therefore, he firmly believed that Chen Afu would definitely be able to cure Li Xuan's illness.

Princess Chen Afriuri's mother and son had dinner in Zhuxuan, and then took Li Xuan to play for a while. Li Xuan liked it very much, and was often amused to giggle. The mother and son were sent away in the next morning.

Just after dinner, Chu Lingxuan came back. Seeing that he was dusty and gray, he just didn't rest well. Chen Afu hurriedly asked people to prepare food and bath water.

When he had eaten and dried his hair, he was put to sleep. Chu Lingxuan also wanted to take Chen Afu to sleep with him, but Chen Afu refused with a red face, saying that many things had not been cleaned up yet.

As soon as Chu Lingxuan was next to the pillow, there was a loud sound, and Chen Afu put down the Luo tent and went to the West House to pack the cage lightly. Houfu is not her usual residence, and in the dowry, except for the large items that are not easy to bring, most of the things will be packed and sent to Tangyuan.

She was directing Mama Li and the girls to clean up, and An Rongtang's girl came to invite Chen Afu, saying that the old marquis and the third master had something to do, and they wanted to go to her.
