In the next few days, the Prime Minister's Mansion finally calmed down, the eldest lady now has a scar on her face and is reluctant to go out, and has been hiding in her own Ruxue Pavilion, Chen concentrated on taking care of Liu Chengming, these days specially asked for the grace of the queen's mother, and invited the imperial doctor to enter the house to treat it, for a while, the masters in the house have no time to fight openly and secretly, and the people below are finally comfortable.

Xiaocui accidentally contracted the wind and cold this day, and Aunt Hu couldn't leave, so she pleaded with Li's mother, asked Meng Xiaoran to help her go out of the house to buy medicine, and specially instructed her to go to the best Jingtang pharmacy.

Meng Xiaoran deliberately looked for a know-it-all drum and asked where the Jingtang Pharmacy was, and learned that it was near the Kyoto Restaurant, so she knew it there.

Out of the Prime Minister's Mansion walked along the street, and soon arrived at the most prosperous street in the city, she was a little worried about Xiaocui, naturally had no time to see the excitement, sped up her pace to the pharmacy, stood outside the door and looked at this magnificent decoration, and secretly said, it is really the best pharmacy!

She walked in and handed the prescription to Xiao Er, who grabbed the medicine, and suddenly an old man in his forties and fifties came next to her, and asked her in a low voice, "Is it Miss Ruhua?"

Meng Xiaoran turned his head to look at him, with suspicion and vigilance in his eyes, and asked, "What is the matter?"

The old man smiled and said in a low voice, "Shen Gongzi is invited."

That "Shen" also deliberately accentuated her tone, Meng Xiaoran instantly understood, it must be Shen Qian, she followed the old man quietly, walked to the backyard of the pharmacy, and Shen Qian was really waiting for her in a room.

Meng Xiaoran walked up to him and sat down, "Why is Gongzi here today?" Could it be that this pharmacy is also an industry of the Shen Mansion? In fact, she had already guessed in her heart, looking at the old man's respectful appearance towards Shen Qian, it was not difficult to guess that he was the master.

Shen Qian nodded, "That's true." ”

The two were relatively speechless after that, Meng Xiaoran thought of Liu Chengming who had a broken leg, and suddenly asked, "Liu Chengming's leg is broken, did you do it?" ”

Shen Qian put down the tea cup in his hand and shook his head, "No." ”

No? Was it really just an accident? Meng Xiaoran frowned, but Shen Qian smiled, "I didn't do it, but this incident is definitely not an accident, someone planned it, but I don't know who it is, I'm afraid Liu Xiangye has been investigating these days, but he definitely won't find anything." ”

"The Prime Minister's Mansion has had accidents one after another, will he be more vigilant?" Meng Xiaoran said with some concern, she has been in the house for two months, but she has not made any progress at all, if she wants to really get strong evidence through undercover, she must become a confidant of one of them, but now she is just a kitchen subordinate.

Shen Qian seemed to see the anxiety in her heart, and comforted: "You can stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion with peace of mind, be patient, there will always be a chance." ”

"Is Xia He your person?" She remembered Xia He's hints and help at the beginning, and suddenly asked.

Shen Qian nodded, "Xia He was also inserted by me at the beginning, but Liu Ruxue doesn't seem to get any useful information from there, so she can only be regarded as a waste chess now, you still have to start more from the Chen family, find a way to get mixed up with her, and gain her trust." ”

Meng Xiaoran nodded, "Except for the Chen family, there seems to be no one else to choose from." ”

After finishing the business, Meng Xiaoran planned to leave, when he got up, he didn't find that the corner of his clothes was pressed under the table, he stumbled and almost fell, Shen Qian's figure flashed and instantly got up from the seat and hugged her, the two were very close, the girl's unique fragrance came, which made Shen Qian a little stunned for a moment, he had never been so close to a woman, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and Meng Xiaoran was also uncomfortable, she held Shen Qian's arm and immediately withdrew from his embrace.

"Thanks, it's time for me to go, I'll be out for some time." After speaking, he hurriedly pushed the door and left without waiting for Shen Qian to speak, Shen Qian looked at the flush that appeared on her lowered face, couldn't help but hook his lips and smile, his nose sniffed lightly, and there seemed to be a trace of vague fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose, what kind of fragrance smells so good? It seems to be more fragrant than the fine incense powder sold by his family.

Meng Xiaoran hurriedly walked to the front of the lobby of the pharmacy, the old man immediately handed over the medicine she caught, she took out her purse and was about to pay, but the old man smiled, "No need, the son ordered this medicinal material to be given to the girl." ”

Meng Xiaoran was slightly stunned, did not shirk, picked up the medicine and left in a hurry, and after going back, the decoction was sent to the North Courtyard, Xiaocui was lying on the bed with a red face, and opened her eyes slightly when she heard the sound, and saw that it was her, so she was relieved, "Sister, you are here." ”

"Well, I've boiled the medicine, hurry up and drink it while it's hot, right?" Although she was about to vomit when she smelled the smell of this medicine, she had to say that the medicine that Shen Qian forced herself to drink at that time was indeed effective, and at this time she changed her role and became the person who persuaded the medicine, and her words were so similar.

She thought it would take a lot of time, but Xiaocui was very sensible, sat up and drank a bowl of medicine in one gulp with her hand, Meng Xiaoran quickly took out a preserved fruit she specially bought on the street and stuffed it into her mouth.

Xiaocui ate the preserved fruit and smiled at her, "It's so sweet, thank you, sister!" ”

"Okay, just lie down after drinking the medicine and get some sleep." Xiao Cui nodded obediently, lay down obediently, and fell into a coma after a while.

Meng Xiaoran touched her forehead, it was still a little hot, and her forehead was full of sweat, she took out the basin to get hot water, wiped the sweat on her face with a hot cloth, and sat for a while before going out.

Aunt Hu was still busy making dinner in the big kitchen, but she was always worried about Xiaocui, and she made mistakes many times in a row, Mother Li couldn't stand it, and just saw Meng Xiaoran coming back, so she called her over, "Ruhua, you go cook for Aunt Hu and let her take care of Xiaocui." ”

When Aunt Hu heard this, she immediately put down the work in her hand and was grateful, Meng Xiaoran nodded, through this time of getting along, she had already discovered that this Mother Li had a good heart in addition to being selfish.

This night, Meng Xiaoran used all his skills to make a meal full of color and flavor, and even Chen, who didn't think about tea and rice, couldn't help but eat an extra bowl of rice.

Lu Ziqing looked at the food that Lanyue had set up, and took a sip gently, "Well, today's dishes are full of color, flavor, and flavor." ”

Lan Yue made a gesture in his hand, and then said: "The master is amazing, today's dinner is not the previous Aunt Hu in charge of the kitchen, it has been changed, you may guess who it is?" ”

Lu Ziqing picked up a chopstick and tasted it, then smiled, "Xia Ruhua? ”

"How does the master know?" Lan Yue was a little surprised.

"Didn't she do it for a while a while ago? She also sent glutinous rice lotus, and her craftsmanship is very good. Lu Ziqing ate it as he spoke, and unconsciously ate a lot more than before.

After dinner, Lu Ziqing came to the study again, and the subordinates in the courtyard retreated as usual, and no one was allowed to approach near his study, except for Lanyue.

Lan Yue walked into the study with hot tea, and whispered to Lu Ziqing, who was sitting at the desk: "Master, the Chen family has been much more honest these days. ”

Lu Ziqing raised his head and smiled meaninglessly, "Did she send him another letter in private?" ”

Lanyue nodded, "I sent a lot of letters, but I didn't reply to her, I must be in a hurry, but now that the third young master's leg is broken, her mind is all about taking care of the third young master, and she has stopped a lot." ”

"Humph! If she doesn't find something to do, she will have nothing to do, so it's okay, we can rest assured to check on something else, the Prime Minister can relax for the time being, and increase manpower to check Shen Qian to see who is behind him? ”

"Yes!"

After Lanyue left, Lu Ziqing walked to the window, pushed open the window door, the cold wind blew in, a full moon hung in the sky, blocked by the trees in the yard, mottled tree shadows were reflected on the ground, a gust of wind passed, the tree shadows swayed, and the night was more mysterious and charming.

At this time, Lu Ziqing was thinking about the scene of meeting Meng Xiaoran several times, the first time she saw her was outside a ready-to-wear shop, she was dressed strangely, secretly took away a piece of clothing, thinking that she was not discovered, and finally she didn't know why she stopped the little er who went to chase her and paid the money for her.

The second time I saw her was in Zeng's mansion, he and Zeng Chengan were friends, he celebrated his birthday in the past, but he didn't expect to meet her again, she was wearing the blue dress that she stole in the ready-to-wear shop that day, and the young ladies and girls nowadays pursue nudity, she is very tightly wrapped, but even ordinary dresses can't hide her stunning color, it is so moving.

She lied to herself and said that her name was Meng Wei, and afterwards he sent someone to investigate, and found all the women named Meng Wei in Yujing City, but they were not her, she seemed to disappear out of thin air, half a year later, he actually saw her again in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but at this time she changed her name, called Xia Ruhua, Ruhua Ruhua, she was really beautiful like a flower, but he knew that this was by no means her real name.

She was sent by Shen Qian to the Prime Minister's Mansion, there is no doubt about this, if she can find out the forces behind Shen Qian in the future, then can she use their power? Lu Ziqing has been thinking about it, and she can't help but feel a trace of sadness in her heart, if she knows that she actually knew her identity from the beginning in the future, will she be sad and disappointed?

Lu Ziqing knew that it was the best choice for him to get close to her at this time, and find out more news through her, but she instinctively rejected it in her heart, he wanted to get close to her, wanted to get acquainted with her, but he didn't want to do it in this way, but everything was up to him, for the sake of the great cause, he could throw away anything, maybe things wouldn't be so bad, maybe she wouldn't know all this?

Lu Ziqing miscalculated Meng Xiaoran's intelligence, so he regretted it in the future.

The Prime Minister had been quiet for nearly half a month, so quiet that Meng Xiaoran felt unreal, but at the same time, she felt a deep uneasiness in her heart, always feeling that something was going to happen, and soon her premonition really came true.

The tranquility that the Prime Minister had maintained for half a month was finally broken, because of the third young master who had a broken leg, the leg injury gradually recovered, but the injury was a hundred days, and now he can only lie in bed and can't go anywhere, he has always been free and casual, how can he stand it?
