Chapter 105: Grievances
Shen Yu is involved in a murder case.
When Lu Shi was talking, she couldn't help but have red eyes several times, but she never shed tears, she had always been very forbearant in front of her juniors.
Shen Youqing thought that Shen Ju was afraid that he was worried about Lu's worries, so he didn't say anything more to her, and what Lu said was not clear.
Shen Youqing softly comforted the Lu family for a while, and her feelings slowly turned around.
In order to divert Lu's attention, Shen Youqing pointed to the pink and white flowers in the vase on the table and asked, "Auntie, where did you pick these flowers?" ”
Lu Shi glanced at it lightly, "It's just some wild flowers." ”
"Auntie, your room is full of flowers, and it is so beautifully pruned, I will ask my aunt for more advice in the future."
Shen Youqing said with a smile.
Lu knows how to live very well, even if it is a flower, she has to take care of it clean and elegant, and she is also quiet and elegant, she will quietly listen to others' praise for her without being pampered and arrogant, and she will humbly accept others' teachings to her without being arrogant; It's hard to hate people with such a temperament, and it is precisely because of this that Shen Ju treats her all the time, and the old lady is no different from Pei's to her, and Pei's will not be her enemy.
In general, the Lu family is a very smart woman, which makes Shen Youqing feel ashamed.
Think about it, when she reaches Aunt Lu's age, I'm afraid she won't be able to do this, she may only be like her mother Pei, sometimes impulsive, sometimes quiet, no different from now......
"Qing'er is so smart, she must be able to learn it as soon as she learns."
Lu's voice pulled Shen Youqing's distant thoughts back, and nodded, "Then thank you aunt." ”
"Hmm." Lu's voice was a little tired.
Shen Youqing poured her a cup of tea, and Lu Shi took it and took a sip. Then he said: "Qing'er, I'm a little tired, I want to go and take a rest, and I'll go back when the rain stops later." ”
"Yes, auntie, I'll leave when the rain stops."
Shen Youqing really waited until the rain stopped before leaving the plum garden.
Because of Shen Yu's matter, Shen Ju's face was a little heavy in the past few days. Even the maids didn't dare to speak out loud.
Shen Youqing occasionally went back to the plum garden. Talking to the Lu family for a while, in fact, this could not make her mood relax, Shen Yu was her only son. How can you not be worried......
After waiting for three days, Shen Youqing finally waited for Huo Ying.
After Huo Ying came out of Shen Ju's study, Shen Youqing caught up with him.
"Huo Ying."
Shen Youqing stopped him, Huo Ying obviously didn't expect Shen Youqing to be behind him. I was a little stunned when I saw her.
He looked back at the door of Shen Ju's study, and then looked at her. suddenly smiled, "Fourth Miss is waiting for the official here?" ”
A leaf fell on the top of Shen Youqing's head, and she scratched her head a little embarrassed, "I want to ask about my second brother." Can Lord Huo sue me? ”
Huo Ying changed his expression, "Fourth Miss, follow me." ”
Shen Youqing followed him out of Songhua Hall blankly. Stopping in front of a pavilion, Huo Ying walked in first. Shen Youqing also hurriedly followed.
"Wen Yuan was personally taken into custody by the emperor, and it is very simple to find out thoroughly, but it will take some time, and the fourth lady doesn't have to worry."
Wen Yuan is Shen Yu's cousin, and even Shen Youqing only learned about it after listening to Lu two days ago, which shows that Huo Ying is really Shen Yu's friend; Huo Ying's tone was relaxed, as if there was really nothing going on, but Shen Youqing felt that Shen Yu's matter was not easy.
Shen Youqing thought for a moment and asked, "What's going on with my second brother?" ”
Regarding the affairs of the palace, Huo Ying only said briefly: "A few days ago, the Jade Concubine died violently, before she died, only a few palace maids and guards had contact with her, and the imperial doctor found out that the Jade Concubine was poisoned; Since ancient times, it has been forbidden to keep poison in the palace, and the poison was found in Wen Yuan's room, and His Majesty was furious and sent all the guards living in that room to the prison. ”
"Didn't the Holy One know that he was my father's son?"
How could the son of a second-class official be thrown into the prison casually, and they needed Huo Ying's notice to know.
Huo Ying shook his head and said: "Wen Yuan didn't explain his identity, and besides, even if His Majesty knew about it, I am afraid that he would not deal with it lightly." ”
Shen Youqing generally knew that most of the affairs of the palace were secretive, and if it was really the concubine in the palace who was killed, the emperor would order a thorough investigation, but he would never say why.
She was afraid that her second brother would be wronged because of this......
Shen Youqing asked again: "Who is the Jade Concubine?" What is the temperament? ”
"She is the eldest daughter of the governor of Liangzhou, she is arrogant and arrogant on weekdays, and the emperor loves her more, pampered and arrogant, and scolds the palace people at every turn, I am afraid that there are many enemies among the concubines and among the palace people."
Shen Youqing frowned, "What kind of official is Imperial Doctor?" Is it bigger than your official position? ”
Huo Ying was slightly stunned, is this the point?
"Zhizhou is from the fifth grade." After Huo Ying was puzzled, he still answered Shen Youqing's question.
The daughter of a five-grade official is a favored concubine, so it's no wonder that she is so troublesome, but Shen Yu has never seen that jade concubine, so how could she kill her......
There are only two most likely ones.
"One is that Concubine Yu offended someone, and that person killed her, Wen Yuan and those palace people mistakenly became scapegoats; The second is that Wen Yuan was framed, but if that is the case, the other palace people will also be arrested, and it will not only be Wen Yuan alone......"
Shen Yu and Concubine Yu have no grudges or hatreds, and there is no acquaintance in the palace, with Shen Yu's temperament, it may be difficult to get along with others, but he will not make enemies with others, so the first one Huo Ying said has become the greatest possibility.
"That's the first one!"
Huo Ying nodded in agreement.
Shen Youqing's solemn appearance, Huo Ying couldn't help but feel new when she saw it for the first time, and it was also to ease her mood, so she smiled and said: "It seems that the fourth lady is not as ...... as the official thinks."
But it stopped abruptly at a critical moment, and Shen Youqing asked: "Which one?" ”
Huo Ying smiled and said nothing.
Shen Youqing didn't bother to ask again, and said directly: "Lord Huo, can you let me go and see the second brother?" ”
"The prison is not a place to come and go at will." Huo Ying said decisively, seeing that she was a little lost, a triumphant smile appeared on her face, and she added: "If the fourth young lady is willing, maybe King Ning will help with this." ”
Shen Youqing: "......"
Although he felt helpless, what Huo Ying said was not true, if Xiao Yan helped, I am afraid that the matter of the second brother would be solved sooner.
Huo Ying suddenly approached her and said with a smile: "Fourth Miss, tomorrow, this official will come to pick you up." ”
Shen Youqing glanced at him and muttered something inexplicable.
Huo Ying sighed lightly, "This official is also a servant of the Criminal Department, and the prison is a place where this official often goes in and out, doesn't the fourth lady even know this?" ”
"......" (To be continued.) )
