Qing Rulan tugged on the sleeve of the third lady and cried breathlessly: "Mother, the eldest sister won't just leave, right?" ”

The third lady was also a little sad, although Qing Ruxu was a little willful, but in the end, her heart was not bad, and she was young, she touched Qing Rulan's hair and said: "Haven't you finished copying your scriptures, it's better to go back and finish copying, maybe your eldest sister's illness will be cured." ”

Qing Rulan choked up and agreed: "I'll go back and copy the scriptures and pray for the eldest sister." ”

The third lady nodded at the Song family, and went back with the people in the third room. Song turned around and looked at Qing Hong, who wanted to speak and stopped, and said hesitantly: "Master, there is a saying, the concubine doesn't know whether to say it or not......"

Qing Hong saw Qing Ru's face like gold paper, and his heart was panicked, "It's all this time, if there's anything you can't say, you just say it." ”

Song walked over and helped Qinghong sit down, and said: "Xu Er's illness, the imperial doctors are helpless, and now they can only resign themselves to fate, since they are resigned to fate, why don't you invite Master Zhiren of the Great Ci'en Temple to come and pray for Xu Er, if you can survive tonight, maybe it will be good?" ”

"Master Zhiren?"

Speaking of Master Zhiren, Qing Hong didn't know what he thought, as if he had caught a glimmer of hope from behind, and without waiting for Song to say anything, he stood up rubbly, "Let people prepare the car, I will personally go to the Great Ci'en Temple to invite Master Zhiren!" ”

Song looked at the door for a long time, saw Qinghong's back disappear at the end of the corridor, turned around and ordered Yuzhi Zisleeve and the others: "You all quit, don't make noise about the eldest girl to rest, and don't quarrel with the old lady in the wing, her old man hasn't rested for a few days." ”

"Yes, the slaves and maids are out there waiting for dispatch."

Qing Ruxu was lying on the bed, half-closed eyes, hearing that the surroundings were gradually quieting down, Song sent everyone else away, and said to Lan Zhou, who was guarding the bed: "Lan Zhou, you go and fry another pair of medicines, although it is not effective, it is better than nothing." ”

Lan Zhou glanced at Qing Ruxu lying on the bed, and responded, "Slave and maid, let's go." ”

Lan Zhou went out, and Song instructed Shizhou again: "I asked someone to find a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, which is in my yard, you go and get it and cook it for Xu Er to set aside." ”

Shizhou had already been instructed by Qing Ruxu, so he just listened to Song's assignment, and when he heard the words, he said, "Then the girl will be handed over to Madame." ”

"Good girl, with me here, don't worry."

Listening to the Song family's series of orders, the chill in Qing Ruxu's heart almost numb her entire body from the cold, there are so many subordinates who are not assigned, but they branch out the most intimate maids around her. But she has ruled the whole house for many years, and there are few people in this house who do not believe in her, and besides, no one will doubt her dispatch with the reputation of a loving mother accumulated over the years.

Even in his previous life, didn't he believe in her until he died.

Only the mother and daughter of the Xiao Song family were left in the room, Qing Ruchu walked to the side of the bed and said softly: "Big sister, big sister? ”

Qing Ruxu was indifferent, still lying there, as if she were a walking corpse. Qing Ruchu stretched out her hand and gently pushed her, seeing that she still didn't react, she finally straightened up, put away the sadness on her face, her eyes became condensed, she looked at her mother Xiao Song, and whispered: "Why does my mother want to stop me." ”

Xiao Song looked at her, her eyes were sharp, she didn't have the usual virtuous and gentle manners, her tone was cold and hard, and she said: "It's too risky for you to increase the dose of 'Thirteen Lives' without telling me." Not a single one, our mother and daughter's murder of Qing Ruxu over the years will be exposed, and then not only you, but even me will be doomed! ”

Qing Ruchu lowered her head and said unwillingly: "The original plan was good, and I did everything from beginning to end, but I didn't expect that Qing Ruxu didn't know why she suddenly changed sex...... But it's nothing, now as long as a bowl of soup and medicine, plus enough 'thirteen lives', she can not sleep, and no one will find out! ”

"No one will find out?" Xiao Song's face was calm, "You also underestimate your father too much!" If you plan this scene, if it happens, it's just an opportunity. But it didn't work out, it was almost a fiasco, you have to stop! ”

"Why didn't my mother believe me? How could my father find out that he didn't even know what the thirteen lives were! No imperial doctor can tell that she has been poisoned! ”

"Then let me ask you, where did Ice Muscle Gyokuro go? Why is it gone, and it has been replaced with a Huoxiang balm? ”

"Maybe it's just a handmaid who has shallow eyelids and has been replaced."

"You can't have such a fluke mentality, my mother has been acting for so many years without anyone noticing, relying on prudence." Xiao Song's tone was unquestionable, and he said: "In short, the matter of Ice Muscle Yulu is definitely not simple, I will not allow you to destroy the original plan!" It's only been a few years, what are you anxious about? ”

When Qing Ruchu heard this, she blurted out: "How can I not be in a hurry? ”

Xiao Song stared at her, as if he had already understood her thoughts: "Chu'er, I know what you are for. ”

Qing Ruchu lowered her head, bit her lip, and was silent for a while.

Xiao Song frowned slightly; "You're young, and there are a lot of things you take for granted and you're too eager for quick success. Such extraneous branches may make all the previous efforts go to waste. ”

Qing Ruchu was not convinced, "But my mother also saw it, I did it very carefully, and no one found out at all." Today, what if I end her life, I am really fed up with her hypocrisy and wrongdoing, and her face, which makes me disgusted to the core! Besides, only when she is gone, can she erase the traces of her mother's steproom, right? ”

Xiao Song's gaze suddenly became gloomy: "You are not allowed to mention this matter!" ”

Qing Ruchu slowly raised her head to look at Xiao Song, her deep eyes were full of coldness: "Mother, the matter has come to this point, only one step away." ”

Xiao Song frowned slightly: "Do you think that if she dies, you will be able to marry Jiang Rin?" ”

"Why not?" Qing Ruchu's tone was very stubborn, and it seemed that she had already recognized Jiang Rin. "I am also a girl from the Qing Mansion and my father's daughter, if she dies, will my father give up Jiang Rin, a good son-in-law? Even if my father can't think of it, my mother will help me fight for it, right? ”

"Confused!" Xiao Song stretched out his hand and focused on Qing Ruchu's head, and said: "You came out of my stomach, how could I not know your thoughts, do you just think that without Qing Ruxu, even if no one helps you, Jiang Rin can't escape your scheme?" I might as well tell you that the relationship between men and women in this world is not as easy as you think, and feelings cannot be forced. If there is no Qing Ruxu as a bridge, it will never be possible for you and Jiang Rinxing. ”

"Why did Mother say that?" Qing Ruchu's voice trembled a little: "The first time I saw him in the Great Ci'en Temple, I ...... I can't let him go...... And she! Qing Ruchu pointed to Qing Ruxu who was lying on the bed and said, "She didn't take Jiang Rin to heart at all, but her father did everything possible to match them!" ”

"But you didn't deliberately appear in front of Jiang Rin once or twice, did you, did Jiang Rin have a moment when his eyes fell on you?" Xiao Song ruthlessly tore apart Qing Ruchu's illusion and said, "If he really has a heart for you, you won't be eager to kill Qing Ruxu, right!" You know in your heart that Jiang Rin didn't take you to heart at all! ”

"Mother!"

What Song said was merciless, and as a mother, she was right. But Qing Ruchu didn't appreciate it, her face turned pale, and her body trembled like chaff: "Am I your daughter or not, how can you belittle me like this?" ”

"I'm not belittling you, it's because I'm your mother that I want you to see the truth!" Xiao Song didn't give Qing Ruchu a chance to refute at all, she said: "Also, if you don't want Jiang Rin to marry your eldest sister, your father won't have anything to do with Jiang Rin at all!" ”

"I don't understand what my mother means......"

Xiao Song looked at Qing Ruxu on the couch and said: "She is a short-lived ghost, everyone in the capital knows that those who are willing to marry her are either blocked by the family or want to use your father's connections to climb up, of course your grandmother and your father will not agree to her marrying into such a family." But I can tell you unequivocally that there was also a deal between Jiang Rin and your father. ”

As if being pricked by a needle, Qing Ruxu's eyelids jumped suddenly.

Although she didn't expect that Qing Ruchu would change her plan for Jiang Rin's sake and want to die now, because she had already imagined thousands of reasons and had been mentally prepared, such reasons were also within her range. But what the Song family said stabbed her very deeply, what kind of deal was there between Jiang Rin and her father? Is it because of this deal that Jiang Rin married her?

Qing Ruchu didn't notice her, because she was also shocked, "The mother's words made the daughter even more confused. ”

Xiao Song looked at Qing Ruchu's surprised gaze and continued: "Although I don't know how Jiang Rin persuaded your father, and I don't know what your father promised Jiang Rin. However, Jiang Rin has clearly promised in front of your grandmother that he does not want to marry the 'daughter of the Qing Mansion', but simply wants to marry Qing Ruxu. ”

Therefore, even if Qing Ruxu died, Jiang Rin would not marry the other daughters of the Qing family, otherwise, he would be slapped in the face.

Qing Ruchu was stunned by the sudden news, and she was speechless, and only said after a while: "How can this be?" ”

Song sighed and said, "I don't know what's wrong with this, but it's clear that even if Qingru Xu dies, no one will be able to convince your father to fulfill your thoughts." You know your father, he seems to have a good temper, but he's actually very stubborn. No one can change what he decides, not even your grandmother, but only compromise. ”

Qingru reluctantly shut up.

Song patted her on the shoulder and comforted: "Actually, you have done a good job, and your mother will not let you work in vain." ”

Qing Ruchu raised her head suddenly: "What does Mother mean by this?" ”
