Chapter 84

When the news of Zhu Zhu's suicide by jumping into the lake reached Wei Qingqing, it was already evening.

"What's going on?"

"Miss, don't worry." Lan Zhi took a breath before explaining: "Miss Zhu was rescued, and there is no danger to her life, but her marriage to the son of the Xu family seems to have been finalized by Mrs. Zhu." β€œ

Wei Qingqing frowned, she didn't expect this old lady to be so confused, Xu Chang has come to this point, the Xu family will be implicated, and she even has to put her own granddaughter in.

Wei Qingqing looked at Lan Zhi and asked, "Do you know why Old Madam Zhu made such a determination at this time?" β€œ

Lan Zhi nodded: "I said that I was not worried about Xu Gongzi's guilt, but the Zhu Mansion was rumored that Mrs. Xu made this decision in order to force the scholar Zhu to intercede in front of the emperor." Today, I wish the scholar is not in the house. As soon as Mrs. Xu went, Mrs. Zhu took Miss Zhu's eight characters and gave her without authorization, and even wrote down the marriage book. β€œ

Lan Zhi said. They couldn't stop sighing, no wonder Miss Zhu was forced to jump into the lake. Her relatives forced her to jump into the fire pit, which is rare in the world.

Wei Qingqing looked out, it was not early, and it was no longer appropriate for her to go to Zhufu at this time, so she said: "Go to Wei Mansion to spread the news, and say that I will go back tomorrow to stay for two days." β€œ

Lan Zhi understood what she meant, she was now the young lady of the Guogong Mansion, even if she cared about Zhu Zhu and came to the door, it was inevitable that the Xu family and the Zhu family would not think much about it, thinking that the Guogong Mansion was going to meddle in the family affairs of the Zhu and Xu families, but it was more appropriate for her to return to the Wei Mansion tomorrow, and then think of taking Miss Zhu out to meet her.

"Slave and maid, let's do it."

Lan Zhi should go out.

Lan Sheng led the pothos in from the outside, Wei Qingqing saw the embarrassed look on the pothos' face, and asked Lan Sheng calmly: "The second master hasn't come back yet?" β€œ

"Just now, Ah Kun came over to spread the word, saying that the second master has something important today. I'm not coming back for dinner. Lan Sheng replied.

"Hmm." Wei Qingqing ordered someone to pass the food.

The green pothos wanted to speak and stopped, seeing that Wei Qingqing didn't mean to ask more, in the end she said it herself: "Young lady, Young Master Tang'er has not heard for several days, do you want someone to take a look?" β€œ

Wei Qingqing knew in her heart that Rong Che had other plans for Tang'er, but this plan could not be known to others.

"If you're worried, check it out." Wei Qingqing replied.

"Yes." Luluo thought that Wei Qingqing deliberately snubbed Tang'er, but now she saw that she promised so simply. Only then did he relax: "This afternoon, the seventh woman next to Mrs. Le Wu came back to inquire about the news. β€œ

"About Tang'er?" Wei Qingqing asked.

"There are Tang'er's, and there are also you and the second master." Lu Luo replied carefully, thinking that Wei Qingqing would be angry, but she didn't want her to just smile calmly, so she said, "It's okay, let her inquire." β€œ

The pothos was surprised, is the young lady really so generous?

She thinks that the Duchess of Guo is open-minded. I can hear from the people in the house that when Mrs. first got married, she was also sad every day because of Grandpa Guo's confidantes.

Luluo put away the surprise in her heart, just when dinner came, she saw that Wei Qingqing's appetite was really good, and she was not affected by music and dance at all, so she retreated.

After Lan Sheng served Wei Qingqing to eat and wash, he mentioned the pothos: "The pothos has no bad intentions. But she is more like the eyes of the Duchess of the Kingdom. β€œ

"Hmm." Wei Qingqing responded lightly.

"Miss doesn't seem to be interested in the affairs of this house." Lan Sheng reminded her with a smile.

After all, she is the young lady of the Guogong Mansion, if she doesn't care about the affairs of the Guogong Mansion, Rong Che will not say anything, but the Duchess will definitely think more.

She is not the young lady who is used to by the Wei family now, but the daughter-in-law of someone else's family.

Wei Qingqing sighed lightly and instructed Lan Sheng: "It's been hot recently, Liu Quanfu took two pieces of ice silk brocade satin, which is just right to make a close-fitting underwear, Ming'er, you personally send one to the old lady and one to the mother." β€œ

Lan Sheng saw that she understood everything, and responded with a light smile.

"As for the Lady of Music and Dance??" Wei Qingqing is really unwilling to take care of Rong Che's peach blossoms: "That's it, the second master will take care of it himself, only a few aunts in the house will send some snacks to relieve the heat, and you will go to the treasury to pick up some suitable things and send them." β€œ

"Yes."

Lan Sheng served Wei Qingqing and half sat on the edge of the bed, and Guo Qing's voice sounded outside the window.

Wei Qingqing put on her robe and sat on the cool floor of the compartment, waiting for Guo Qing to come in. Only then did Lan Sheng bring tea.

"That Zhang Jiao is such a wonderful person."

As soon as Guo Qing came in, he couldn't help laughing, took a sip of tea, and frowned: "Can you change it to wine next time?" β€œ

Wei Qingqing took a sip of tea lightly before answering him: "When your matter is done, there is wine you can't finish." β€œ

"Then I want to brew the bayberry wine that has been in short supply recently." Guo Qing mentioned the conditions, and Wei Qingqing raised his eyebrows lightly, which was a response.

Guo Qing said of Zhang Jiao: "I originally went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to stare at that appearance, but who knew that Zhang Jiao took the initiative to find me and told her plan." β€œ

Wei Qingqing was indeed a little surprised, Zhang Jiao had her own plan?

Wei Qingqing suddenly thought of Fang Zijiao again, now that Fang Zijiao has been mixed with Zhang Jiao, it seems that it is not unusual for Zhang Jiao to have a plan.

Guo Qing looked at her and saw through it again, drank the tea boringly, and when he sat down, he found that it was very cool on the cool collapse, he looked down and saw that the bottom of the cool collapse was empty, and he directly put a basin of ice down.

Although there is a thin layer of cushion on the cool collapse, it is cool and transparent, not too cold, but it is just comfortable, and it is even more amazing with this lotus tea: "Coming to you is to enjoy." β€œ

"Plan." Wei Qingqing reminded succinctly.

"Didn't the Queen Mother directly take away the old lady's chastity archway today?" Guo Qing smiled: "After the old woman goes back." was so angry that he lay on the couch for a day, and when he got up, he said that he wanted to marry Zhang Jiao and marry her to the Zhang family. β€œ

Wei Qingqing had already guessed that she would do this, and the Zhang family basically obeyed Mrs. Zhang's orders as early as when Rong Ruizhang became the prime minister.

Marrying Zhang Jiao is tantamount to guarding her strictly, if Mrs. Zhang is more ruthless and stuffs her into a poor countryside, no one will know if she is dead.

Zhang Jiao must have guessed it herself.

"Zhang Jiao knew that this old lady had bad intentions, so she decided to take advantage of this emperor's feast to meet the four princes." Guo Qing said directly: "She found me just to ask me to help her find a way to stop the four princes and wait for her to come before the four princes entered the palace." β€œ

"She's so sure she'll be able to meet the Fourth Prince?" Wei Qingqing smiled.

Guo Qing also laughed; "Doesn't she have a Fang Zijiao to help, do you know what kind of trick Fang Zijiao came up with?"

Wei Qingqing remembered Xu Yao, who had been with Zhang Jiao in the Wei Mansion a few days ago, and laughed: "Use Xu Yao." She told Xu Yao the secret of the four princes, but she only said about half of it, and Fang Zijiao spread this rumor again, and then it was not whether Zhang Jiao wanted to see the four princes or not, but that the four princes couldn't wait to see her. β€œ

"And that's not all." Guo Qing thought of that Fang Zijiao, and he had a chill: "This person is really sinister, after Rong Ruizhang asked him for 100,000 taels, he turned his head and asked people to go to the Ma Mansion, and leaked the news of Rong Ruizhang's leakage of the scandal between the four princes and the Ma family to the Ma family." and claimed to know other things about the Ma family, and forced the Ma family to hand over 30,000 taels of silver. β€œ

"The Ma family used to be rich, but since offending the prince, in order to save his life, he has given most of the property in the capital to the prince, and now it is difficult to take out 10,000 taels of silver, let alone 30,000 taels."

Guo Qing said it in one breath, and he felt that this Fang Zijiao was a small commoner. Not only is he bold, but he is also ruthless.

"That's very good." Wei Qingqing put down the teacup and looked at Guo Qing with a smile: "But don't come forward to help Zhang Jiao." β€œ

"Why?" Guo Qing looked at Wei Qingqing's dark eyes, and suddenly his wrist flicked: "You mean, Zhang Jiao and Fang Zijiao have also counted me in?" β€œ

"You are their retreat. In case the four princes don't agree to Zhang Jiao marrying her into the mansion, they will all throw these black cauldrons on you, although they don't know that you are my person, but Rong Ruizhang knows. Even if Rong Ruizhang was suspicious of Zhang Jiao and Fang Zijiao at that time, he would be even more convinced that I had instructed you to do these things. Wei Qingqing smiled, but her smile was very cold.

Guo Qing frowned.

Wei Qingqing glanced at Lan Sheng: "Let Liu Quanfu come to see me early tomorrow morning." β€œ

Since Fang Zijiao has set up such a big pit by herself, she naturally wants to help him complete it, and after it is completed, she will also help him go to Rong Ruizhang to ask for credit!

Before dawn the next day, Liu Quanfu came.

"Master."

Liu Quanfu saluted through the beaded curtain.

Wei Qingqing directly took a piece of paper to him: "Go find this person on the paper, the emperor's birthday is these two days." The four princes will definitely go out of the house to attend the emperor's birthday, you let this person find a way to deliver a message to the four princes on the day the four princes enter the palace, just say that Rong Xiang is waiting for him here. β€œ

Liu Quanfu took the paper, glanced at the name on it, and naturally burned it with the candle that had not been extinguished on the side.

"Minions understand."

"Have you ever sent wine to Mafu during this time?" Wei Qingqing asked.

Liu Quanfu smiled lightly: "Naturally, not only Mafu, but also everyone in the capital who can be called famous." All came to the four seasons to make wine, but some of them were given away and some were not delivered. β€œ

Wei Qingqing came out with her makeup, looked at Liu Quanfu and smiled with satisfaction: "Very good, first pick out the wine in Mafu and send it, and let the person who sent the wine inquire about what is the most profitable industry in Mafu at present." β€œ

Since the Ma family gave all the business in the capital to the prince, the accounts began to lose money every year, but even so, the four princes still had a lot of silver in the capital. It can be seen that they have falsified the accounts at all.

Liu Quanfu responded one by one.

After he retreated, Wei Qingqing went to ask the Duchess of Guo to say goodbye to the Wei Mansion, and then hurried back early in the morning.

Wei Qingshan hadn't slept well all night since he heard the news that Wei Qingqing was coming back yesterday, and he thought something had happened to her, and when he saw her coming back from the sedan chair in the morning, his heart fell back into his stomach.

"Daddy has breakfast?"

Wei Qingqing looked at Wei Qingshan, who had been standing in the morning fog for an unknown amount of time, and her hair was wet with dew, and her heart was warm.

Wei Qingshan nodded, and asked awkwardly if Wei Qingqing was bullied in the Guogong Mansion, and when he learned that it was okay, he went to the court with confidence.

When Wei Qingshan left, Wei Hu, who had finished his morning exercises, and Wei Xun, who had finished reading early, also came.

As soon as Wei Xun saw Wei Qingqing, he knew what she came back for.

"I went to see Scholar Zhu yesterday, and Miss Zhu is fine for the time being."

"That's good." Wei Qingqing saw that Wei Xun still didn't have any love for Zhu Zhu, so she suppressed the words in her heart and asked Wei Hu about the preparations for the marriage.

Wei Hu had a bitter face and didn't want to say a word.

Wei Xun, who was on the side, shook his head with a sympathetic smile and said, "In recent days, the Ruyang Royal Mansion has been eager to move the entire mansion over, and the second brother's courtyard has been stuffed to the brim. The king of Ruyang wanted to re-establish the house for him and ask him to move out, but he didn't agree. β€œ

"If I agree, I won't eat soft rice." Wei Hu snorted twice, and looked at Wei Qingqing again: "That tigress." If you let her out, you don't know who to bite. β€œ

"Lord Chiyang is just a little rude, but he still has a good heart." Wei Qingqing said with a smile.

Wei Hu pouted: "That's why you say that about her, little sister." Forget it, little sister, let's go out to play today, we haven't been out together for a long time, why don't we go fishing? It's okay to go shopping, or??"

Wei Qingqing looked at the excited Wei Hu, and couldn't help but splash him with a basin of cold water: "In the future, the second brother will not be suitable to go out with me alone, and when the county lord marries, you can go with the county lord again." β€œ

Wei Hu suddenly wilted.

Wei Xun glanced at Wei Qingqing, who was talking and laughing with Wei Hu, and felt a little envious in his heart, as if he had been studying hard since he was a child, and it was rare for him to be so close to people, even with his two younger siblings.

Talking and laughing in the morning. Lan Zhi came to pass the word, saying that Mrs. Zhu came with Zhu Zhu, and Wei Hu and Wei Xun went to work on their own.

When Mrs. Zhu came, she looked a little haggard.

As soon as Zhu Zhu saw Wei Qingqing, she ran over and hugged her crying.

Mrs. Zhu wanted to remind Zhu Zhu that this was not appropriate, but when she thought that Wei Qingqing had returned to the Wei Mansion early the next morning by such a coincidence, she also figured out that Wei Qingqing really regarded her daughter as a friend.

Think about it this way. Wei Xun is a suitable son-in-law.

"Let's talk a little bit, I'll go sit by the lake." Mrs. Zhu said, and wiped the corners of her eyes and left.

"Qingqing??"

"Let's sit down and talk." Wei Qingqing asked someone to wash her, only to see that her two eyes were swollen like fish eyes.

After Zhu Zhu obediently finished washing, he looked at Wei Qingqing with sharp and firm eyes, and said, "I have already told my father that if he forces me to marry Cousin Xu, I will die." I don't want any! β€œ

Wei Qingqing looked at her clenched fists that were still trembling, and asked her, "Since you have the determination to die, then I can rest assured." β€œ

Zhu Zhu looked at Wei Qingqing in amazement.

Wei Qingqing drank the tea slowly, and then looked at her slowly and said, "The immortal I asked you to beg, did you ask for it?" β€œ

Zhu Zhu pursed the corners of her lips: "Because my father helped me stop the Xu family's family affairs last time, I thought it was okay, so I didn't go." And I accidentally slipped out of my mouth, telling my father that I was going to ask the gods about it. Dad said that if I disturbed the gods, the Zhu family would be buried with me. β€œ

Wei Qingqing smiled lightly: "You are not afraid of death, and you are still worried that the Zhu family will be buried with you?" β€œ

"But Daddy??"

"Don't worry, your father and mother can't die, even for the sake of your father and mother serving this immortal for so many years, they can't die." Wei Qingqing smiled.

Zhu Zhu suddenly realized: "Daddy is scaring me?" β€œ

Wei Qingqing smiled silently, and Zhu Zhu stood up suddenly: "Then I'll go and ask the gods now??"

"There's no rush now." Wei Qingqing said: "Do you know why your cousin Xu went to prison? β€œ

"Because of the death of the prince of the General's Mansion." Zhu Zhu said: "But I know Cousin Xu, he is sometimes very eccentric. But let him blatantly kill the people in the General's Mansion, I'm afraid he doesn't have the guts. β€œ

"But the people in the General's Mansion won't think so, even if he doesn't die this time, I'm afraid he will lose his skin." Wei Qingqing knows Wei Rampant too well, and would rather kill the wrong one than let it go. Rong Che must have dealt with this matter last night, so Xu Chang will inevitably put the blame on him, so how can Wei Yi let Xu Chang go?

Zhu Zhu was shocked when she heard this, but seeing that Wei Qingqing was still calm and light, she couldn't help but envy in her heart, when she could be like Qingqing, pampered and not shocked, and the wind and clouds would not change color.

As he was talking, Lan Sheng suddenly walked over with a slight change in his face and whispered a few words in Wei Qingqing's ear.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhu hurriedly said: "Qingqing, you go and get busy with you, I know what to do." β€œ

Wei Qingqing looked at her and saw that her mood had stabilized, so she got up and came out with Lan Sheng.

"What's wrong?"

"It's Mrs. Le Wu, who suddenly contracted a vicious disease, and the news reached the Guogong Mansion, and the old lady asked her to take her back to the Guogong Mansion for care as soon as possible, and the second master didn't receive any notice." Lan Sheng Road.

"What did the Duchess say?" Wei Qingqing didn't care about this old lady. The most important thing is what my mother-in-law thinks.

Lan Sheng smiled lightly: "The Duchess of the State is very angry that the old lady is good at making claims, and the old lady has also placed Mrs. Le Wu in the Wanqiu Courtyard, and the people of the Guogong Mansion have already sent Mama Cao out to look for you, so she must be more worried about you." β€œ

Wei Qingqing also breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this: "That's easy to do." You go back and pick out a few ginseng and send them to the old lady's courtyard, and say that it is hard for her old man to worry about the second master's room, if she is free, please also ask her to sit in the autumn courtyard and guide her in person. β€œ

As calm as Lan Sheng, he couldn't help but look at Wei Qingqing with wide eyes, and called an old woman in her old age to come to her grandson's room for guidance?

What to instruct, to guide things in the room? Or is it a bed thing?

"Still not going?"

Wei Qingqing looked at Lan Sheng.

Lan Sheng looked at Wei Qingqing's bright eyes, she was clearly deliberately making it bad, and couldn't help laughing: "Yes, the slave will do it." β€œ

"By the way, ask someone to take care of Mrs. Le Wu. If there is anything to use in the yard, she will use it as much as possible, and the rest of the mess will be cleaned up by herself when the second master comes back. When Wei Qingqing said this, she regretted it a little, when could she be so arrogant with Rong Che?

She's so confused.

"I'll come back to deal with the rest." Wei Qingqing changed her mind and sent Lan Sheng away.

But as soon as she returned to Fangcai's pavilion, she saw that Zhu Zhu actually met Wei Xun who came over suddenly.
