Chapter 62: A Visit to Mrs. Chen
Chen Peiyuan's illness was so good that Gu Linyan inquired according to Shen Luo's previous explanation, and passed on the news, only saying that he had not found any new entrants.
This was what they expected, since they were not newcomers, they should have been a pawn already lurking in Chen's mansion.
The poisonous snake hides in the dark in a good way, and naturally it will not be exposed by itself, and if you want to find it, you must startle the snake.
Shen Luo planned to go to Chen's Mansion for a trip, but he was worried that he didn't have time to speak, but Su Zhi mentioned it first.
The case of Lifu originally belonged to Chen Peiyuan, but it was only because he was so sick that he couldn't investigate the case, so Su Zhi did it for him, and now that he is well, it is logical for Shen Luo to visit.
"It doesn't matter if Mrs. Left and Right stays in the palace, why don't you go to Chen's mansion for me and see how Lord Chen's health is."
Su Zhi's tone when he said this was meaningful, but he didn't hide it, he was as smart as Shen Luo, and Su Zhi naturally knew that she would understand what she meant.
This was what Shen Luo thought in her heart, Su Zhi opened her mouth first, she nodded like pounding garlic, and even if she agreed, she said that she would go to Chen's mansion later.
Because it was a decision made from the beginning, what kind of clothes should be worn appropriately, naturally it was already properly dressed.
Chen Peiyuan's wife was notoriously indifferent in the Shangyin Imperial City. The rest of the mansions in the imperial city often have elegant meetings for viewing flowers and discussing poetry, and she almost never goes to any noble banquet.
She doesn't like to join in the fun, so Shen Luo naturally can't wear heavy makeup.
The satin moon brocade I bought before, Shen Luo thought about it for a long time, and now it is finally made into a dress, which is a Su embroidered moon brocade shirt, dignified but not luxurious, delicate but not enchanting, and a little jade jade hairpin on the head, which is suitable.
Although this Shangyin Imperial City is not very peaceful for the time being, because Mrs. Chen likes to be quiet, Shen Luoyuan only planned to take Fran alone, but Su Zhi refused, so she had to take Hua Yi with her.
Fran is a talker, in the past only the two of them were in the carriage, Fran always talked non-stop, but today with Hua Yi, she is quiet.
Shen Luo breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, if he could keep Fran so well-behaved and quiet, then it would be a good thing to bring Hua Yi in the future.
Thinking like this, Shen Luo looked at Hua Yi quietly: Well, it is indeed eye-catching.
Hua Yi sat still, unresponsive.
Chen's mansion was in the middle of the alley of Jianxing Street, and as soon as the carriage turned into the alley, Hua Yi's expression became a little alert.
Shen Luo only secretly sighed in his heart that she was a clever person, and smiled warmly on her face: "Don't be so nervous, there are people from the prince around."
Hua Yi glanced at Shen Luo, nodded, and didn't speak, but his body relaxed a little.
When he arrived at the gate of Chen's mansion, Shen Luo first sent Fran to the gate of the mansion to greet him, and when the little guy guarding outside the door entered the mansion to spread the word, Shen Luo and Hua Yi got out of the carriage together.
Shi Dahai waited outside the gate of the Chen Mansion, and Shen Luo, Fu Lan, and Hua Yi followed the little guy who led the way into the Chen Mansion.
Although he was following behind the little guy who led the way, the Chen Mansion was not big, and Shen Luo had sneaked around once, and after walking a few steps in the familiar courtyard, he unconsciously remembered the scene of being almost caught by Su Zhi that day.
Secretly relieved, the three of them walked to the front of the main hall after a while, Mrs. Chen was wearing a very elegant plain brocade, and was already waiting outside the hall.
"I've seen the Princess Regent."
Shen Luo walked closer, and Mrs. Chen stepped forward to greet him a few steps and saluted.
Shen Luo hurriedly helped Mrs. Chen's arm, and said softly: "Madame, please get up quickly."
Mrs. Chen got up, welcomed the three of them into the main hall with a smile on her face, and ordered the maid to cook tea.
After Shen Luo sat down, Mrs. Chen sat down: "The princess came this time, but it was for my lord's illness?"
Shen Luo nodded, and then carefully looked at Mrs. Chen.
As I saw during the last night visit to Chen's mansion, Mrs. Chen's eyes are still faintly green, which shows that although Chen Peiyuan's illness has improved, Mrs. Chen is still sleeping unsteadily.
"I did come to visit Lord Chen. The prince is busy, although he is worried about Lord Chen's body, but he can't get out of his body, I am an idler, but after all, I am a female dependent, and I have to let Mrs. work hard to take a look for the prince. ”
Mrs. Chen kept smiling until Shen Luo finished speaking, and then nodded first.
"Although I am always stuffy in the house, I don't know what is going on outside, but the maids below are talkative and talkative, I have heard about the princess, and I have heard that the princess used to run a horse on the long street, very jumpy, but now it is groundless."
Shen Luo sighed in his heart: Sure enough, the high position is only not good at all, that is, everything is stared at by others.
"It's not groundless." As he spoke, Shen Luo stretched out his hand and took the tea from the maid, "I was born in Nanrong, and my nature is indeed jumpy, but now that I am the princess regent, I still have to be restrained." ”
Mrs. Chen took a deep look at the soft-spoken princess regent, sighed sullenly in her heart, and said with a smile: "My lord's illness is now very good, but because he was dangerously ill before, the doctor was afraid of leaving any sequelae, so I asked my lord to recuperate for a few more days before going to the council."
Since Mrs. Chen had already mentioned that Lord Chen was dangerously ill, Shen Luo sighed: "It is indeed dangerous, and the people outside of us still feel frightened, not to mention that Mrs. Chen is Lord Chen's pillow person?" I just don't know...... Has the cause of the illness been found out now? ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Chen sighed faintly: "I have checked it, but I haven't found any clues."
When Mrs. Chen said the word clue, her mind suddenly became a little dazed, and Shen Luo looked at it in her eyes and glanced at Fran.
Fran nodded secretly, and then listened to Shen Luo say: "By the way, the prince ordered me to prepare some nourishing medicinal materials, all of which were taken from the Tai Hospital, although they are not priceless, but they cannot be bought in ordinary medicine stores.
Mrs. Chen smiled gratefully, stood up, and wanted to salute Shen Luo again, Shen Luo hurriedly got up and walked a few steps quickly, supporting Mrs. Chen.
At this time, Fran stepped forward and said: "Princess Qiyu, madam, the medicinal materials brought this time need to be handled with care, but I am afraid that the little ones are not very safe, and I am afraid that the sisters in the house will have to go with me."
Shen Luo cast an inquiring glance at Mrs. Chen, who nodded again and again, pointed to the maids waiting in the hall, and asked them all to follow Fran out.
After the maids all went down, only Hua Yi, Mrs. Chen and Shen Luo were left in the main hall.
Only then did Shen Luo hold Mrs. Chen's arm tightly and asked in a low voice, "I see that Mrs. is worried, but what do you have to tell me?"
