Grandpa Guo was dumbfounded, coughed twice, and then sat up straighter: "Don't tell your mother about these things first, otherwise it will be bad to show your stuffing." As for the matter of the second room......" Grandpa Guo looked at Wei Qingqing with a smile: "Leave it to you to deal with, Che'er believes in you, and Daddy also believes in you, just like the matter of the Wei Mansion, if you don't come to ask for it, Daddy will not interfere." “

Wei Qingqing looked at him with a sharp and sharp gaze, could it be that he knew all the things he did in private?

Wei Qingqing looked at him again, and his eyes became drunk again.

"Daughter-in-law understood."

Wei Qingqing saluted and withdrew.

But I don't know that compared to the complexity of her heart, Grandpa Guo is even more uneasy: "I can be a teenager, I can have such courage and insight, if I am a man, I don't know what kind of career I want to achieve, but unfortunately as a woman, I am trapped in this inner house." ”

"It's trapped in the inner house, and the young lady can't be underestimated." The old man on one side laughed.

"yes." Grandpa Guo smiled, quite a bit of honor: "I just said that Archer can't look down on anyone, but I fell in love with this little girl who looks like a delicate flower, at first I thought it was a hero who was sad about the beauty, but now it seems that I am superficial." ”

After a pause, Grandpa Guo opened the drawer of the desk and took out a letter from it. The envelopes were yellowed, and the mouth of the envelope was torn, indicating that the letters inside were often pulled out to see.

After thinking about it, Grandpa Guo gave the letter to the old man: "You copy it out, find a suitable time, and send it to the young lady, this letter, burn it." ”

The old man looked at him worriedly: "Do you really want to do this?" The letter ...... Didn't Archer say that the young lady was never allowed to know? In case the young lady is involved......"

"I don't want to involve her either, but the affairs of this capital are going to involve her everywhere, if she knows, maybe she can save her life in the future." Grandpa Guo is as worried.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, the old man didn't dare to say anything more, so he went out directly with the letter.

Before Wei Qingqing returned to the Autumn Courtyard, she went to see the Duchess of the Kingdom.

But the Duchess was sick in bed, and no one wanted to see her, Wei Qingqing couldn't do anything even if she wanted to reveal any news to her, so she had to go around the plum garden and pick a few fresh plum blossoms, so that Lan Sheng personally sent them over.

These plum blossoms were picked by the young lady herself, and the young lady said that the plum blossoms looked delicate, but the vitality was very tenacious. Madame only needs to be carefully raised with water in a warm room, and these flowers that seem to be withering can live for a long time, and the unopened buds can bloom again. A room full of fragrance. Lan Sheng personally sent Zaomei to the Duchess's room.

The Duchess was lying on the bed with red and swollen eyes, and she didn't want to speak at all.

Seeing this, Lan Sheng looked at Mama Cao on the side like a talker, and said with a smile: "Today, the young lady went to see Grandpa Guo, and I saw him drinking, although the wine is good, it is better to drink less." ”

Mama Cao heard what Lan Sheng said, and looked at the few early plums she was holding, shocked by her own thoughts, and looked at Lan Sheng suddenly.

Lan Sheng saw that she guessed, and he didn't say more: "The young lady is still waiting for the slave and maid to reply, and the slave and maid won't bother much." With that, he bowed and went out.

Mama Cao waited for Lan Sheng to leave, and immediately found an excuse to send the people in the house away, and then put the plum blossom branch at the head of the Duchess Guo's bed, and said, "Madam, did you hear what Lan Sheng just said?" ”

The Duchess still didn't want to speak.

Mama Cao said: "Do you remember, the uncle and Miss Yan had an accident that day, and the young lady was also present, and the slave remembered that she was sent by the eldest princess to fold plum blossoms that day, but the young lady is a smart person, how could she not know that the eldest princess had ulterior motives for Miss Yan?" ”

"What do you mean by that?"

The Duchess asked casually in a dumb voice.

Mama Cao laughed: "With the young lady's friendship with Miss Yan, and also with the young lady's affectionate and righteous temperament, how could she watch Miss Yan have an accident?" If there was no other reason, how could she watch Uncle and Miss Yan die in front of her eyes? ”

"And Lan Sheng's words." Mama Cao recalled carefully: "What kind of vitality is very tenacious, but the seemingly withered flowers can live for a long time......"

The Duchess was slightly stunned, opened her eyes and stared straight at Mama Cao, her lips opened, and she was speechless with excitement.

Mama Cao knew what she wanted to say, and nodded: "And Grandpa Guo, the young lady said that she was drinking, and the slave maid sent someone to inquire early in the morning, and the news over there also said that Grandpa Guo was too sad and locked himself in the study and no one would see him." ”

The Duchess finally understood, held back for a long time, and only scolded 'old and immortal', and then let go of the breath that almost suffocated her.

"If you want to come to this matter, you still have to hide it from the people in the house, otherwise the young lady will not say it so obscurely." Mama Cao reminded.

Of course, the Duchess of Guo understood, but the whole person seemed to come to life.

Seeing her like this, Mama Cao said distressedly: "Madame hasn't had a good meal for a long time, do you want the slave maid to ask someone to stew a few good dishes......

"No, Qingqing tried her best, she just didn't want to show her stuffing, how could I have a good appetite for food and drink at the moment? It shall be business as it is, and no one shall discover it. The Duchess said.

"Then you're not wronged......"

"What's this grievance?" The Duchess didn't care: "As long as they're all good, it's fine." ”

Even if Mama Cao was distressed, she didn't dare to be careless when she heard her say this.

The Duchess looked at the fresh plum blossom branches at the bedside, the snow had not yet fallen, but it was already exuding a refreshing fragrance.

The Duchess looked at the plum blossom with emotion: "Thanks to Qingqing, this child ...... It is the blessing of Archer, and it is also the blessing of the Guogong Mansion. ”

When Wei Qingqing saw a pair of jade cicadas sent by Mama Cao. I know that the Duchess understands her own thoughts.

"Miss, what should Rong Fangfang do? You can't let her keep making trouble like this. Lan Zhi didn't want to call Rong Fangfang Miss now, after all, Rong Fangfang was outside the courtyard, and she scolded her for what she couldn't hear.

Wei Qingqing asked Lan Sheng to put away the jade cicada, and then said to Lan Zhi: "Since you are so angry, you can do it, send her back in person, and tell the second master that his father and mother have just lost their beloved son, and they can understand his loss of love for their daughter, but after all, they are brothers, Lin Lin died, and his father and mother were also very sad, so please ask him to let his father and mother be clean for a few days for the sake of his relatives." ”

Lan Zhi's eyes lit up: "Miss, don't worry, the slave will definitely stand at the gate of the second room and say this clearly to the second master." ”

After speaking, he took people out, grabbed Rong Fangfang and took the carriage to Rong Minghuo's temporary residence.

And it was very clear that Wei Qingqing's words were said loudly at his door.

Rong Minghuo's face turned green with anger, and Tao was also indignant on the side: "What does she mean by this, is she saying that we disregarded brotherhood and bullied the big house?" ”

Isn't that what it means?

The subordinates on the side muttered in their hearts, the second room lost a young lady, the big room also lost a son, and the second master let Miss Rong Fangfang go to the Guogong Mansion to insult and make a fuss. It's really lagging behind.

But Rong Minghuo's original intention was not like this, he just wanted to have an explanation from the fifth prince and the staff, otherwise wouldn't it offend people if the staff thought that his daughter would rather die than marry?

"I didn't expect this Wei Qingqing to be so unwilling to suffer." Rong Minghuo was angry: "Obviously, it was her refusal to help Lin Lin say a good kiss, which caused Lin Lin to commit suicide in despair, but now when these words come to her mouth, it has become me messing around because of the hatred of the family." ”

Tao secretly saw Rong Minghuo's indignation in his eyes, and thought of his daughter's death, he didn't feel that Rong Linlin's death had anything to do with Rong Minghuo, and only hated Wei Qingqing.

When Rong Minghuo left the mansion, the Tao family was still thinking about something, and suddenly heard that the third prince's side concubine sent some condolence gifts, all of which were excellent supplements.

"Concubine Wei? We don't seem to have a good relationship with her. Tao muttered in his heart, but Rong Fangfang's eyes lit up, remembering the incident on the night of the emperor's birthday banquet, and told Tao, "Is this what my father often said, the enemy of the enemy is the friend?" ”

Tao Shi reacted, looked at the tonic, and immediately said: "Tell the steward to pick up a return gift for the side concubine immediately, by the way, Fangfang, Ming'er, you will go with me to send a return gift to the side concubine in person." ”

She didn't believe it, a prince's side concubine. can't suppress a Wei Qingqing!

Wei Qingqing only sighed lightly after learning the news of the second room; "It looks like we can't stop them, so let them go."

"This Concubine Wei will take advantage of loopholes and will not let go at all." Lan Zhi pouted.

"Guo Qing got a message back?" Wei Qingqing asked. fervor

"After Guo Qing went out yesterday, he hasn't come back yet, and I don't know if something happened." Lan Zhi Road.

Wei Qingqing was also a little worried, if something happened, it would mean that the third princess and Yang Daxian also had an accident.

It is obviously a very delicate part, but I didn't expect it to be discovered by Wei Susu so soon, and I thought that the three princesses were already stared at by Wei Susu.

was so worried that it was not until two days later that the prince personally issued an order, wrongly blaming Wei Xun and his son, and took them out of prison, and also arranged a reception banquet.

"Reception feast?"

Wei Qingqing asked while letting Lan Sheng tie his cloak.

Lan Sheng nodded: "It was sent by Fang Cai Qiu Ling, listen to the meaning of the house, I'm afraid I can't refuse." I have to go to the banquet this afternoon, but the lord and the eldest son have not suffered any crimes in prison, but they have lost some weight, and the young lady will see you in a while, but don't be sad. ”

Wei Qingqing pursed her lips slightly, she didn't speak, she was not surprised that the prince would pick up his father and brother in person, there was the letter that Ge Lao sent all the way to the southwest, she believed that it was enough to keep her father and brother safe, but this move should have angered the narrow-minded prince, why did he still have a banquet?

Poisoning his father and brother at the banquet was such a reckless thing, Wei Qingqing believed that the prince did it.

Thinking of this, Wei Qingqing didn't stay any longer and went out directly.

In November, the first snow had already fallen, and there was a snow last night, and now the snow has stopped, but there is still a thin layer left on the ground.

The fetus in Wei Qingqing's womb was not yet three months old, and Lan Sheng Lan Zhi was afraid that she would accidentally bump into her, so she carefully supported her all the way until the Wei Mansion.

When she came, Zhu Daxue and Zhu Zhu had already arrived.

Wei Qingqing crossed everyone and saw Wei Qingshan in a thin cotton coat, and the already thin person now had sunken cheeks.

Wei Xun was not much better, his eyes were all black, and he stood there with a straight body in a green coat. Inexplicably, he felt a sense of coldness, presumably he had heard of Mr. Yan's 'death'.

Wei Qingqing came over, Zhu Zhu hurriedly looked at her, and hinted at her about Wei Xun with her eyes.

Wei Qingqing took a few steps forward, saluted, and was immediately helped up by Wei Qingshan.

"Qingqing, are you okay this time? Father talked about Rong Hai and Mr. Yan...... "Wei Qingshan just said this, he felt that his heart was hanging in his throat, even such a noble son of the Guogong Mansion could die." Wouldn't his Qingqing be more dangerous?

"My daughter is fine, but my father is okay?" Wei Qingqing originally didn't expect to see Wei Qingshan, but when she heard his worried and warm words, she actually wanted to cry.

Seeing her like this, Wei Qingshan hurriedly wiped his eyes: "Daddy and your eldest brother are fine, but I'm just worried that you are a girl's family, and Che'er is not at home." ”

"Don't worry, Daddy, I'm fine." Wei Qingqing said a few words to Wei Qingshan and looked at Wei Xun.

Wei Xun couldn't hide the sadness in his eyes. But more than that, it was the gloom that made Wei Qingqing feel scared when she saw it.

Since his father thought that the Guogong Mansion killed Mr. Yan, the eldest brother was bound to think the same way.

"Father, I have something I want to talk to my eldest brother." Wei Qingqing said.

Wei Qingshan was naturally happy that their brother and sister had a good relationship, Wei Xun seemed to resist for a moment, but quickly endured it and followed Wei Qingqing to the garden of the Wei Mansion.

"You stand down first."

Wei Qingqing called Lan Sheng Lan Zhi.

Although Lan Sheng Lan Zhi was not at ease, she saw Wei Qingqing's eyes resolute, so she had to step aside.

Wei Xun keenly noticed that Lan Sheng Lan Zhi was extra cautious, and looked at Wei Qingqing, who was tightly wrapped, and frowned: "Little sister, should you ......?"

"Big brother found out." Wei Qingqing didn't intend to hide it from him, the gloom that flashed in Wei Xun's eyes made her feel afraid, if the eldest brother really embarked on another road that she didn't want to see for Yan Ruan's sake, it would be too late.

Wei Xun saw that it was really as he thought, his palms clenched for a long time, and finally let go, and his eyelids drooped, as if he had lost his heart.

"You take care of it, if necessary, go back to your parents' house to raise it, and the eldest brother will take care of you." Wei Xun spoke softly.

Wei Qingqing listened to his tone and knew that he must have given up the dangerous thoughts in his heart, both surprised that he could do this for himself, and distressed that he could do this for himself.

"Mr. Yan is not dead." Wei Qingqing no longer sold Guan Zi and said it directly.

Wei Xun's footsteps froze, and he looked at Wei Qingqing, thinking that Wei Qingqing was lying to her, but Wei Qingqing's eyes were clear and he didn't lie halfway.

"Then she ...... with Rong Hai"

"Big brother has big brother things to do, and big brother has already decided to give up, right?" Wei Qingqing looked at him: "The situation in the capital is changing very quickly, what the eldest brother has to do now." How to protect yourself. This time Mr. Yan had an accident, there must have been many people behind him waiting to take advantage of the eldest brother. ”

"When the prince's people took me out of prison, they secretly revealed that it was the people from the Guogong Mansion who connived at the eldest princess to kill her husband." Wei Xun no longer hid it from Wei Qingqing.

When Wei Qingqing heard this, he finally understood why the prince was able to condescend and bring his eldest brother out of prison.

But with the temperament of the prince and his staff, they would not have thought that it would be Wei Susu to use such a dirty method!

"Then this afternoon's feast must be for this purpose." Wei Qingqing said.

"Before the crown prince, the six princes also came to see me quietly." Wei Xun looked at Wei Qingqing, and suddenly felt that it was inconvenient to tell his father and outsiders, and there was someone to discuss: "The prince's matter, I know how to deal with it." ”

Wei Qingqing admired Wei Xun's mind, at the beginning, he must have decided to deal with the crown prince with the six princes.

"The eldest brother must not only guard against the crown prince, but also against the third prince. and his current side concubine Wei Susu. Wei Qingqing quietly said her true identity and the fact that Wei Susu burned her alive, she thought, if she didn't make it clear, Wei Xun wouldn't care about a woman, let alone understand how ruthless a woman could be.

Wei Xun listened to Wei Qingqing's words, and his footsteps froze in place.

He looked at the little sister with a calm face, and looked at the series of cruel truths that came out of her mouth, as if she was talking about someone else's business, how painful it should be that fire burned on her skin.

"I never understood why you resisted Rong Ruizhang so much." Wei Xun's eyes were awe-inspiring: "Little sister, you don't have to worry about the next thing." ”

At lunch, Wei Xun and Zhu Daxue talked very happily, and even Zhu Zhu was not so alienated.

Wei Qingqing seemed to understand what he was going to do, but looking at Zhu Zhu's crimson little face and watery eyes, she didn't say anything, she believed that even if the eldest brother didn't love Zhu Zhu so much, he would treat Zhu Zhu well.

For the affectionate Zhuzhu, this may be a good home.

In the afternoon, Wei Xun went to the prince's mansion with Wei Qingshan.

Wei Qingqing came out of the Wei Mansion, and the scholar Zhu also spoke on purpose, and between the words, they were all testing Wei Qingqing's meaning about Wei Xun's family affairs, and Wei Qingqing gave a positive answer.

After listening to this, Zhu Daxue was obviously relieved, and Zhu Zhu was even more shy.

Wei Qingqing returned to the Guogong Mansion from the Wei Mansion, thought about it, cleaned up, and planned to go to see the Guogong Mansion, but before he went, he saw the pothos that ran in a hurry before the blood stains on his hands were cleaned up.

Goodbye pothos, Lan Zhi's face was not good: "Didn't Miss say that there is nothing that I didn't ask you to come here, what are you doing here?" ”

The green pothos didn't care so much, and saluted crampedly, before carefully saying to Wei Qingqing: "Young lady, there is a rabbit dead in the bamboo forest, you go and see ......"

"Dead rabbit tell Miss to see something, you clean up yourself." Lan Zhi immediately interrupted in displeasure, but Wei Qingqing looked at the green pothos and wanted to cry, and realized that it was not a rabbit, it was Guo Qing!
