Chapter 296: Shocked
Lu Qingrong didn't know at the time, he was completely worried in vain.
That night, under Jiang Xuan's intently watchful gaze, Lu Qingrong drank a whole bowl of ginger soup in one go, and then lay on the warm bed and fell asleep.
The next day, although she showed no signs of a chill, she still woke up at the beginning of the day.
"What about the sons of the world?" After Lu Qingrong got up, he hurriedly asked.
She's been thinking about last night.
Luzhu paused, remembering that the prince did not let her hide it, so he spoke: "The prince entered the palace early in the morning. ”
When Lu Qingrong heard this, his heart sank, and he asked instead: "What about the two people?" ”
Luzhu understood that she was referring to Wu Qiniang and Wu Shiniang, and immediately responded: "I went back to the house last night, and the lights went out soon after, I was very honest, and I haven't come out until now." ”
Lu Qingrong nodded, got up absentmindedly, and after freshening up and changing, she was still a little unsavory when eating, and looked at the door from time to time, as if only when Jiang Xuan came back, she could be steady.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, seeing that it was about to be time for lunch, Jiang Xuan finally returned to Yuyuan.
Immediately afterwards, a piece of news that shocked everyone up and down in the Marquis Jingyuan Mansion instantly spread to everyone in the mansion.
Wu Siniang was really sent out of the house.
"I didn't expect you to really enter the palace to return to the palace, and the Queen Mother agreed like this?" Lu Qingrong was also surprised.
"It's not a big deal." Jiang Xuan spoke lightly.
"The Queen Mother won't respond to you on the surface, but she holds a grudge in her heart, right?" After all, Lu Qingrong didn't see it with his own eyes, so he was always a little uneasy.
"No, it won't." Jiang Xuan said categorically, looked around, saw that there was no one around, and then said: "The Queen Mother is a very suspicious person, the more cautious and decent you are in front of her, the more suspicious she will be, but you are more unscrupulous, but it makes her feel steady!" ”
Lu Qingrong couldn't help laughing: "How did you know this?" ”
"Naturally, I suffered a lot of losses when I was a child, and I slowly found out." Jiang Xuan raised his hand and touched his nose, as if he was a little embarrassed, and said, "I just sent away one Wu Shi Niang, if you want to send another one, I'm afraid it won't be so easy!" ”
Lu Qingrong obviously felt that his topic had turned bluntly, but he never pierced it, and said to him: "One less is one!" After all, that person, who is alone, will not be so easy to get into trouble. ”
Jiang Xuan was not as optimistic as her, and he was still vigilant in his heart.
However, what surprised him a little was that after a few months, Wu Qiniang, who stayed in Yuyuan, as Lu Qingrong said, had not moved, and was as low-key as a person who did not exist.
And the same low-key is Song Shixiang, who can't see anyone alive or dead.
Jiang Xuan didn't care much about him.
What really worries him is another person.
After the head of Sato was shown to the public at the Shenwu Gate at the end of last year, the first nine sides have ended, but a few months have passed, and the emperor sent to Jiayuguan to intercept the soldiers and horses searching for Sato, and they have not been recalled!
And Xu Wang, the secretary of the military department who was demoted by six levels in a row, is still honestly doing his criminal department.
It can be seen that in the emperor's heart, he doesn't believe that it is Sato's head at all.
Fortunately, the Marquis of Jingyuan's Mansion was not affected by this incident.
Jiang Xuan is still recuperating in the mansion, and Qinyi Courtyard has been very quiet recently, and there has been no incident.
And at this moment, the Chengping Marquis Mansion is not so wishy-washy.
Song Shixiang disappeared for months.
Chengping Hou and Shizi are like ants on a hot pot, not knowing what to do. In the past few months, whether it is the reproach from the emperor or the exclusion from other nobles in the capital, they have already planned to kill their relatives in righteousness, but they have tried their best to solve the problem, but they still can't find the shadow of Song Shixiang.
Among them, the most difficult is undoubtedly He Qingwan.
While dragging her increasingly heavy body, she heard rumors from time to time that Hou Ye was going to sever ties with Song Shixiang, which made her panic all day long. *
Seeing that his lower abdomen was gradually bulging, He Qingwan still kept this secret strictly, and no one knew about it except for the maid Hongxia who served closely.
At the beginning of the day, He Qingwan was sitting on the edge of the bed in the inner room, and Hongxia was carefully helping her untie the silk cloth that had been wrapped around her lower abdomen all day.
"Second grandma, it's not a matter if you always hide it like this......" Hongxia opened her mouth after thinking about it, for fear of angering He Qingwan, "And this belly is getting bigger and bigger day by day, it's not something that can be kept hidden!" ”
He Qingwan ignored her, and Gu Zi fell into deep thought.
She didn't know that!
It's just that Song Shixiang has been missing for several months, and his life and death are unknown. If one day, the Marquis of Chengping really severed the father-son relationship with him, he would completely become a helpless person, thousands of times worse than staying in the mansion and being looked down upon by others now!
When the time comes, she will carry another oil bottle by her side, and that kind of situation will make her dare not think about it......
Hongxia saw that she had not spoken for a long time, she knew that she was not interesting, and she didn't say much, so after serving her to rest, she quietly retreated.
And He Qingwan's heart is far from being as calm as she seems.
Lying on the bed, I repeatedly remembered what Hongxia had just said, she was right, no matter how cautious and careful she was, she couldn't hide it for many days......
Suddenly, she felt irritated and sat up suddenly.
Can't sit back and wait like this anymore!
Since Song Shixiang's life and death are uncertain, and even if he comes back, what awaits him will be unimaginable punishment in his eyes......
Since Chengping Hou wants to drive them out, he must be prepared!
Thinking of this, He Qingwan immediately took action and began to pack up the things in the house.
He Qingwan first emptied the box used for bedding in the inner room, put the valuable furnishings in the room in it, and poured the gold and silver jewelry on the dresser into it.
Seeing that the box was about to be filled, He Qingwan turned around and walked towards Song Shixiang's box of clothes, intending to empty the box.
As Song Shixiang's clothes were thrown aside one by one, a pink skirt belt was carried in it, which caught her attention.
At first, she just frowned, after all, it was not the first time that she had turned out this kind of thing from Song Shixiang's surroundings.
But this time, something is different.
When she noticed that the crony was a little familiar, she thought only for a moment, and then froze in place, unable to move again.
I saw that the skirt was embroidered with a string of plum blossoms, small and delicate, there were dozens of them, and each one was brightly blooming, but it was dazzlingly red.
She will never admit that she is mistaken, this is Qiu Jinting's personal thing.
At the beginning, this pattern was borrowed from Xiangqiao from himself.
He Qingwan held the skirt, and her hands clenched tighter and tighter...... R1152
