"Madam, the princess of Nanjun Wangfu wants to invite you to Chu Mansion for a trip, this is a post, do you want to take a look?"

In the Chengenhou Mansion, a maidservant girl in an emerald robe presented a prayer note to the second lady Ren who was sitting at the table and playing with the incense burner, and her voice was crisp and gentle.

When Second Mrs. Ren heard this, she looked up at the post, but she didn't take it, she only said contemptuously, "Mrs. Ben doesn't have time, just throw it in the paper basket!" ”

Cuizhu nodded and put the post away, but the person didn't leave immediately.

"What, what's the matter?" Second Mrs. Ren has always doted on Cuizhu, and when she saw this, she lazily doubted.

Cuizhu saluted again, and then said, "Back to Mrs. Hui's words, the princess's side of the concubine Zhi Jin instructed the slave maid, if you are not willing to go to the appointment, let the slave maid mention a person's name to you." ”

"Oh? Whose name is it? Second Lady Ren no longer played with the agarwood in the incense burner, and asked for a long time.

Cuizhu looked into the eyes of Second Lady Ren and slowly pronounced out the ordinary name - "Akang".

Akang ......

As soon as these two words came out, the blood on Second Lady Ren's face immediately receded and became iron-blue.

Her back straightened, her shoulders trembled violently, and her mouth kept babbling, "Akang, Akang......"

Then, tears fell like pearls with broken threads.

"Ma'am?" Seeing his master like this, Cuizhu couldn't help but scream softly, and said suspiciously, "Madam, who is Akang, why are you so out of shape when you hear his name?" ”

Second Lady Ren did not answer her words.

She was still in the same state of distraction, weeping in grief.

After a long time, as if remembering something, I wiped away my tears with a handkerchief. Commanding Cuizhu in a loud voice, "You go and prepare a carriage for me now, I want to go to the Chu Mansion to make an appointment!" ”

"Ma'am?" Cuizhu shouted again, and said with a suspicious expression, "Could there be any traps in this?" ”

"It's a trap, I'm going to ...... Don't ask any more questions, go and get me a carriage at once!" Second Lady Ren instructed Cuizhu without question.

Cuizhu had no choice but to turn around and prepare the carriage.

About an hour later, the carriage of the Chengenhou Mansion stopped at the gate of the Chu Mansion in the east of the city.

Cuizhu helped the second lady get out of the car and went to call the door.

The dumb uncle had already been instructed by Chu Ci, opened the door, and learned that it was the wife of the Ren family, so he immediately brought the second lady Ren in.

But green bamboo. But he was kept out.

Second Mrs. Ren didn't have the heart to think about it at all, and after listening to Chu Ci's rules, she only explained that Cuizhu waited steadfastly, and then couldn't wait to walk inside.

Xie Ci lived in the flower hall, and Chu Ci put down the book in his hand when he heard the footsteps.

"I'm on my way!" After the second lady Ren entered the flower hall, she didn't say much, she went straight to the point, and ran to the topic, "If the princess has anything to say, you might as well say it directly." ”

Hearing this, Chu Ci raised his head and looked at Second Mrs. Ren.

He looked at her deeply, pointed to the seat under him, and said. "Madame, let's sit down first!"

Second Lady Ren was under the eaves of the people, she had to bow her head, she gritted her teeth and walked forward quickly, after sitting down, she looked at Chu Ci's eyes, and said word by word, "I sat down, can the princess say it now?" What do you mean by asking someone to leave my name 'Akang'! ”

"What do you mean......" Chu Ci sneered softly, with a thick sense of sarcasm.

Then he took out a notebook from his cuff and threw it to Second Lady Ren and said, "What do I mean, Madam will know after reading this notebook!" ”

Second Lady Ren took the letter suspiciously, opened it, and read it at a glance.

Page by page.

She recognized that it was Ren Yihua's handwriting.

And what is recorded in this book is all Ren Yihua's inhumane secrets.

For example, how he induced his aunt to kill three-year-old Ah Kang, and then blamed his eldest brother Ah Ming.

How did he harm his aunt, just so that his mother-in-law could adopt him without any guilt, and use all the resources of his mother's family on him......

After reading the last page, Second Lady Ren's hands trembled.

Her eyes were scarlet, she raised her head, looked at Chu Ci sharply, and asked, "Are these all true?" ”

"What do you say?" Chu Ci looked at her with a sympathetic expression and asked rhetorically, "Ren Yihua has been brought up by you since he was six years old, I heard that he is worried that you can't sleep well, since the age of six and a half, every month he will offer you thirty volumes of Buddhist scriptures in the small Buddha hall...... You know his handwriting best, don't you? ”

When Second Lady Ren heard Chu Ci say this, the last bit of hope in her heart was extinguished.

She really didn't expect it.

She never dreamed of it.

The son who was brought up by herself, raised by herself, and spent almost all her efforts, will be the murderer of her own son.

Ren Yihua, this pig and dog are not as good as the beast.

How old was Kang'er when she died, whether she was five years old or five and a half years old.

This young child has such a vicious scheming.

not only harmed Kang'er, but also blamed Ming'er, who was smarter than him and lost his biological mother early......

Ren Yihua, it's too poisonous!

She was so stupid that she put a poisonous snake by her side and let it go for fifteen years!

……

She raised her hand and covered her mouth tightly.

I didn't want to cry in front of Chu Ci.

Chu said goodbye and said that poor people must have something to hate, and this sentence is really appropriate for Second Mrs. Ren.

But even though she thought so, for the sake of Lu Zhaohua's future, she still kindly handed her a handkerchief and said, "The deceased has passed away, Mrs. mourn!" ”

Second Mrs. Ren heard Chu Ci say this.

He reached out and took the handkerchief in her hand.

After vigorously wiping the corners of his eyes, his sanity has returned a lot.

looked at Chu Ci coldly and said, "The princess found out this matter for me, it should be more than kindness, right?" ”

Chu Ci nodded, "You're right, I'll check on the matter of your second room, it's really not kind." ”

"Tell me what the hell you want to do! Just because I owe you a favor, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help you, and I should repay you this favor. ”

When Chu Ci heard her say this, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and he said, "Madame is quick to talk, then I will go straight too...... I want my wife to help testify that on the day of the 16th Dynasty Greeting Meeting, Zhaohua did not go out of the city and go to Luoxia Villa, but went to the Zhenguo Mansion on my behalf to send medicine for asthma to Miss Yang Liu. ”

"And the reason why you helped Ren Yihua propose marriage was because he wanted to eat swan meat, so he deliberately made up rumors to slander Zhaohua."

"Okay, I'll agree to everything you say." Second Lady Ren nodded and said without hesitation.

Chu Ci said "um".

Second Lady Ren wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, then looked at Chu Ci and said, "Will the princess still cure asthma?" ”

Chu Ci glanced at her, and his tone was very detached, "Second Mrs. Ren, our transaction has been completed, I don't need to answer this question, right?" ”

When Second Lady Ren heard her say this, her face couldn't help but darken.

She pinched her palm, paused for a moment before she spoke, "Then I'll make another deal with you." ”

"What deal?"

"You help my little brother treat asthma, and I will return the sweat towel of the eldest lady of the Lu family to you."

Chu Ci: "...... What's going on with this sweat towel? ”

Second Lady Ren glanced at her lightly, and said hatefully, "It was Ren Yihua's brute who deliberately stayed, wanting to use it as evidence that the two of them were privately given handles, and the word 'Zhaohua' was embroidered on it with Miss Lu's maiden name......

In that case, the thing should be returned.

Chu Ci let out a soft "um" helplessly, "Then Mrs. Lao should return the sweat towel as soon as possible, and when I confirm with the eldest lady that nothing else has been lost, I will go with you to check the pulse of your mother's brother." ”

Second Lady Ren nodded, "When I finish dealing with Ren Yihua's brute, I'll have someone send it to you." ”

Chu Ci has no opinion.

She glanced at Zhe Jin, "Second Lady Ren still has to deal with family affairs." Hello, send her out. ”

"Yes, girl!" Zhejin agreed, and then walked out with Second Lady Ren.

As soon as Second Lady Ren left, Queen Lu Xiaojun walked out from behind the screen in the flower hall.

He diligently poured a cup of tea for Chu Ci, handed it to her, and said with a smile, "The lady is tired, drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat." ”

Chu Ci snorted lightly, took the tea, and drank it slowly.

After drinking, she looked at King Lu Xiaojun, who was sitting next to her, and asked again, "Did you send the letter to Qin Fang?" ”

Lu Xiaojun said, "The dark guard left at noon yesterday, riding a fast horse with an expedited speed of eight hundred miles, and in a few days, there should be news." ”

Chu Ci let out a "hmm", thinking of the book stolen by Qinglongwei, he couldn't help but sigh, "But to say that this Ren Yihua is really a ruthless person, he is only five or six years old, and he can come up with so many vicious ideas......"

King Lu Xiaojun nodded very sympathetically, "That dog thing looks like a human, but I didn't expect it to be more venomous than the most poisonous snake inside." ”

After a pause, he patted his chest again and said, "Fortunately, the brothers of the second uncle's family don't have that vicious plan, otherwise, I'm afraid that I would have died ten or twenty times ago!" ”

"Bah, what are you talking about!" Chu Ci couldn't get used to hearing him say such frustrating words.

glared at him and said, "The reason why Second Mrs. Ren can't protect her sister-in-law is that she didn't think that the obedient concubine who was pressed by herself would murder her eyeballs, but you are different from him, you grew up in Luyou Dean since you were a child, not only are you protected by your grandmother, but also your grandfather is hurting, and you can't tell how many secret guards there are around, those people in the second room didn't kill you, where is your life, it is clearly their life!" ”

"Okay, good, what the lady said is that whatever the lady says is right!" King Lu Xiaojun looked at Chu Ci with doting eyes, looking like what the lady said.

Chu Ci was shrouded by his tender gaze, no matter how thick-skinned he was on weekdays, he couldn't help but blush now.

He glared at him with a soft snort and said, "What are you looking at, you can't blink your eyes!" ”

"Look at the lady!" King Lu Xiaojun said casually.

Chu Ci snorted again, "I have something to see." ”

"The lady is so beautiful!" King Lu Xiaojun blurted out.

Chu Ci's face immediately turned even redder, and he dragged the corner of the handkerchief with both hands to cut a barrier between the two, and said angrily, "Don't look at it!" ”

"Nope. Just have to see! King Lu Xiaojun said, dragged the handkerchief in her hand, and then looked at it seriously with one hand on his cheek, "The lady looks like this, even if I look at it for thousands of years, I won't get tired of it." ”

"Speaking from the heart, if there weren't so many mundane things, I really wanted to move a small bench, sit in front of the lady like this, and watch it for a year or two years."

Chu Ci: "......"

Second Mrs. Ren didn't send Lu Zhaohua's sweat towel over until the second day.

Chu Ci unfolded it from the box, took it out and took a look, the rose lace in the lower right corner was indeed embroidered with the words 'Zhaohua'.

She breathed a sigh of relief. looked at Zhe Jindao, "Let people prepare the car, I have to go back to the Nanjun Palace." ”

Fold brocade and take the order.

An hour later, Chu Ci got out of the car at the gate of the Nanjun Palace.

She took the brocade and walked directly towards Luo Shen Yuan.

Luo Shenyuan's subordinates Xu got Lu Zhaohua's orders, and when they saw her, they didn't ask a word, and directly invited her in.

At this time, just after lunch, Lu Zhaohua had eaten and was walking in the bedroom to eat.

Seeing her open the curtain, her eyes lit up, and she immediately took a few steps forward and called "sister-in-law".

Chu Ci bowed slightly at her, and then helped her to walk towards the brocade couch. After the two of them were seated separately, she took out the wooden box that was tucked away in her cuff and handed it to her.

Lu Zhaohua took the wooden box, looked at Chu Ci with a puzzled expression and asked, "Sister-in-law, what is this?" ”

"Open it and take a look." Chu Ci said lightly.

Lu Zhaohua lowered his head and slowly pushed the box away.

After seeing the familiar sweat towel, she didn't speak, and her personal maid next to her covered her mouth first and said in surprise, "Isn't this the sweat towel that the girl has been looking for?" ”

Lu Zhaohua took out the sweat towel in the box, looked at it carefully, nodded as well, looked up at Chu Ci and said, "Sister-in-law." This sweat towel is what I've been looking for, how can it be where you are? ”

Chu Ci told all the transactions she had made with Second Lady Ren.

After Lu Zhaohua listened, he was both happy and afraid.

After calming down, she thanked Chu Ci solemnly, and then threw the sweat towel in her hand to the maid on the side with a disgusted face, saying,

"I don't want to see anything that beast touched, you burned it all for me, and it was the same color and color as this sweat towel. I burned everything of the same texture, and I didn't want to see them again! ”

"Yes, girl!" The maidservant took the order and left with a sweat towel.

Chu Ci glanced at her again uncomfortably and asked, "Zhaohua, are you sure that all you lost was this sweat towel and nothing else?" ”

Lu Zhaohua nodded, "I'm sure, the only one whose whereabouts are unknown is this sweat towel." ”

When the words fell, for fear that Chu Ci would not believe it, she explained one more sentence, "Sister-in-law." Don't you know that for a girl like us, personal belongings are very important, and therefore, every piece is registered by the maidservant...... Whether something is lost or left behind, check the booklet to know. ”

"I see!" Chu Ci came halfway, and he hadn't lived in Gaomen, so he really didn't know much about these details.

But now that she heard Lu Zhaohua say that she didn't lose any other personal belongings, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, I sat with her for a while and talked about something else. By the way, I made a confession and left.

Return to Chu Mansion.

As soon as she entered the door with her front foot, the dumb girl came up with her back foot, holding a few posts in her hand, and said, "Girl, these posts were all collected by the slave maid for you after you left, you see, which ones are useful and which ones are useless!" ”

Hearing this, Chu Ci took the post in her hand.

After reading them one by one, I found that they were all sent by the ladies who gave her skin care products.

Without exception, she was invited to participate in the chrysanthemum viewing party.

This chrysanthemum viewing party. It is an autumn festival held by the powerful families of the capital in turn.

Chu Ci was not invited last year because Concubine Yun treated her badly and didn't think about taking her out at all, and the other ladies in Beijing were not very familiar with her.

But this year, because she was implicated with the Yang family, there were eight more ladies who wanted to take her with her.

Zhi Jin was standing beside Chu Ci, and she also read the content of the post clearly.

"What do you think?" Chu Ci didn't know much about these people, and after thinking for a while, he simply looked at Zhejin and asked for her opinion.

Zhi Jin thought about the situation in the eight ladies' homes, thought carefully for a while, and said, "The slave thinks. The girl can go with Mrs. Jiang, the nine generations of the Jiang family are passed down, which means that Mrs. Jiang will go to the banquet alone, and the girl will go with her, not only to get her wholehearted care, but also to be accompanied by Mrs. Jiang to relieve boredom......"

Chu Ci also felt that it was feasible when he heard Zhi Jin say this, then glanced at her and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, then you can help me reply to these posts." ”

Zhe Jin also knew that Chu was rehabilitated, and he didn't understand these roundabout politeness, so he agreed and took the posts to the study.

Chu Ci went out for a trip, and he didn't feel anything when he read the post just now.

Now put down the post and immediately feel sleepy.

She yawned gracefully.

was about to go back to the room to take a nap, but at this time, the dumb girl opened the curtain and suddenly walked in quickly.

He bowed in front of her and said, "Girl, the lady Ren who came before is here again, do you see it or not?" ”

Mrs. Ren!

Hearing these three words, Chu Ci almost immediately remembered the second transaction she had made with Second Madam Ren that day.

sighed helplessly - it is estimated that it is impossible to make up for sleep.

"Forget it. You don't need to invite her in, you go directly to the pharmacy and tell Si'er, ask him to carry the medicine box on his back, and go out with me! ”

The dumb girl said yes and walked out.

Chu Ci watched her leave, went to the house to change her clothes, and then walked outside.

Outside, Si'er was already waiting, and when she saw her come out, she hurriedly handed over her sister and asked, "Is my sister going to the clinic today?" ”

Chu Ci nodded, "Zhejin just happened to be doing something else." I can only call you to go with me. ”

Hearing her say this, Si'er smiled softly, revealing eight snow-white teeth, "It's Si'er's honor to be able to do things with my sister." ”

Chu Ci raised his hand, patted him lightly on the shoulder, didn't speak, and walked out directly.

Outside, the second lady of Ren Xu got out of the carriage and stood on the ground to wait for her respect.

Seeing Chu Ci coming out with someone carrying the medicine box on her back, she immediately stepped forward and called "Princess Shizi".

Chu Ci glanced at her. said lightly, "I know what you want to say, lead the way, go to your brother's house now......"

Second Lady Ren nodded curtly and asked Chu Ci to get into the car.

Chu Ci did not refuse, and stepped on the ladder to get into the car first.

After she sat down, the second lady Ren came in.

After both of them were seated, the carriage clattered towards the second lady's maiden family, Qu's house.

In the carriage, the two sat opposite each other, no one spoke, and there was only silence in the carriage.

I don't know how long it has passed, but Second Mrs. Ren can't help it. Breaking the silence, he said, "Princess Shizi, whether you believe it or not, I want to tell you that you can go to see my brother, I am grateful." ”

Chu Ci listened to her.

It's still a good thing to say.

couldn't help but turn his head sideways and glanced at her carefully, but found that in just two days, Second Mrs. Ren seemed to be ten years old, and even gave birth to a third of her gray hair.

She is also a mother.

Looking at her appearance, she couldn't help but sigh, "Siren has passed away, don't be too sad." ”

When Second Mrs. Ren heard her say this, she seemed to know what she was thinking, and her eyes immediately turned red.

Then, as if opening a conversation, he babbled a lot of words.

She said that she didn't expect that the person she had raised for so many years and treated as her own son would be such a Zhongshan wolf. When she confronted him with the note, he not only did not repent, but he did not even explain.

He was stunned on the surface, looking like he didn't know why, but behind his back, he had already prepared a sharp weapon to kill her.

She said that if she hadn't brought her guards to protect her in the shadows, she might have been a corpse by now.

……

She said a lot on and on.

Chu Ci listened quietly.

It wasn't until she realized that she was about to be unable to bear this huge change and psychological pressure that she suddenly spoke, forcibly changed the topic, and said, "Tell me about your brother's illness, is his asthma born or acquired?" ”

"What's the difference?" Second Mrs. Ren took the handkerchief handed over by Chu Ci and wiped her tears. With a little softness, he asked in a low voice,

Chu Ci sighed, "If it is acquired, I am seventy percent sure that it can be cured, but if it is congenital, I can only prescribe a prescription for him and let him keep it." ”

Second Mrs. Ren understood what she meant, nodded and said, "My brother's asthma is acquired, and he fell into the water once when he was six years old. Because it was winter, I was rescued a little late, and I suffered from asthma. ”

"Once, there was a doctor who said she wouldn't live to be 30 years old."

"And how old is he now?" Chu Ci took over and asked.

Second Mrs. Ren said, "I'm already twenty-six years old." ”

"And how has he been in the past few years?"

Second Mrs. Ren continued, "The body is like that, twelve months a year, ten months in bed, only two months in winter can withdraw to bask in the sun. ”

Chu Ci knew what she meant by this.

The most important thing for asthma patients is not to smell irritating odors.

Winter is the cleanest season of the year.

It is also the season when many asthma patients can barely go out......
