Shen: "......"

Shen's pupils slowly shrank to a pitch black point.

Mama Chen didn't think that this matter had anything to do with Chu Qianhuang, and hurriedly explained: "The slave maid is very sure that the eldest girl was talking to the maid outside the hall at that time, and it is impossible for her to hear what you and the slave maid said, Madame. ”

In terms of Chu Qianhuang's position, it was indeed impossible to hear them speak, at that time, Shen not only deliberately lowered his voice when he spoke, but also let all the subordinates wait under the corridor.

However, Shen's heart felt as if a thorn had been buried, and that thorn pierced her heart with a faint pain.

Is it really impossible?!

In the past, she thought that Sister Huang would not be able to do something that harmed others and herself like provoking her sisters, but what was the result?

In the past, she thought that Sister Huang was bright, but what about the facts?

Mama Chen's heartstrings tightened.

Shen closed his eyes again, and then asked in a dry voice, "Sister Huang, when will she go back to the house next time?" ”

On weekdays, Chu Qianhuang usually returns home for three days every ten days, and the last time he returned to the house was for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to hire Chu Qianchen and come back temporarily.

Mama Chen counted the days and replied, "Seven days later." ”

These three words tightened her throat, and she also realized what Shen meant by asking.

Mama Chen hesitated for a moment, and her voice was lowered: "Madam, it's impossible." ”

She actually didn't have much confidence in saying this, but she really couldn't think of any reason for Chu Qianhuang to do so.

I don't know if it was to convince her or to persuade the Shen family, she couldn't help but say a few more words: "Madam, you are investigating the matter of the second girl and Aunt Jiang, what does this have to do with the eldest girl?" Big girl, she has no reason to help Aunt Jiang. ”

"Besides, the eldest girl has no contact with Aunt Jiang......"

"Do you remember," Shen suddenly interrupted Mama Chen, "Do you remember that Mei'er said that 'that day' I saw Sister Huang'er." ”

Shen's voice was tense and slightly hoarse.

The "that day" she said refers to the day when Chu Yunmu fell off the rockery in March.

When Mama Cui's incident happened, Chu Qianhuang said very calmly that she was going to pick flowers on the rockery.

However, from that time on, a thorn fell in Shen's heart.

Occasionally, a terrible thought would pop up in her heart, but she always pressed it down, and said to herself, Chu Yunmu is Chu Qianhuang's own brother, how is this possible!

But now, because of Mama Yu's death, this thorn is also getting deeper and deeper in Shen's heart.

During this time, she often had a dream.

In her dream, she walked in a dark fog, and even her eyes seemed to be veiled and she couldn't see clearly.

She could only keep walking forward in the fog, and occasionally the night wind would send some familiar and unfamiliar sounds.

She walked forward patiently, and finally saw a faint glimmer of light ahead......

When she felt like she was just a little bit away from coming out of the fog, she suddenly woke up.

It felt like something was flashing through her at this moment, as if something was about to come out......

"Madam, the second girl is here!"

The voice of the big girl Dongmei sounded outside the curtain, and Shen Shi shook his head violently and came back to his senses.

Mama Chen answered for the Shen family, and Dongmei led Chu Qianchen into the east room, followed by Aunt Lan Ruo from Shouning Palace.

At the same time, another little maid went to invite Li's father-in-law over.

Li Xiao's father-in-law had been waiting impatiently, if it weren't for the crown princess's instructions to send the invitation to the future princess Chen, he would have dropped the post and left.

After entering the east room, the little father-in-law turned his face like a book and put on a pleasing smiling face, and the little maid in the main courtyard admired it, and secretly said that he was worthy of being the father-in-law from the palace.

"I've seen Mrs. Hou, I've seen Second Miss Chu."

Li Xiaogonggong respectfully saluted the Shen family and Chu Qianchen, and took out the apricot yellow post that had already been prepared, "The crown princess ordered the villain to send this invitation to the second girl of Chu, and asked the girl to enter the palace to go to the Furong Garden for a banquet in three days." ”

"The girls don't have to be too grand, they are all going to be sons and girls of the same age, and they will just play polo and enjoy the flowers." Li Xiaogonggong said with a smile, and also reminded Chu Qianchen to prepare his riding clothes in advance.

Chu Qianchen obediently pursed his lips and smiled, and said with a smile: "I'm tired of my father-in-law." ”

She motioned for Lan Ruo to go over and take the post.

She wants to go out for a walk, since the emperor's marriage decree was issued, except for going to the Chenwang Mansion every two or three days as a miracle doctor, she has hardly ever gone out, and it is good to go out for a walk.

And......

An unusually bright light flashed under Chu Qianchen's eyes.

Although Li Xiaogonggong only said that those sons and nobles would go to the banquet, and did not mention that Wuhe Jialou would also go, Chu Qianchen's news was a little more well-informed than Shen's, she had the eyeliner of Chenwangfu, and she had already heard Xue Feng's speech in advance about the prince Gu Nanjin also inviting Wuhajialou.

If the crown prince Gu Nanjin just wants to invite people to play polo and enjoy the flowers together, then there is no need to specially invite Wuhe Jialou. Nine times out of ten, the real goal of the prince is Jialou.

The prince said last time that Uhajialou is extremely intelligent, and he is an immortal genius who knows the subtleties.

There are only a handful of people in the world who can get such praise from the prince, and Jialou is still in the capital now, and eighty percent is for the prince.

Although Chu Qianchen had never said it explicitly to the other party, she could see that maybe Jialou had already guessed that the Seven Star Grass was for the prince.

But even so, this person still gave her the Seven Star Grass as promised.

Chu Qianchen thought about it, the expression on his face did not change in the slightest, he was always gentle and gentle, soft and smooth, soft as a cute and harmless white rabbit.

She didn't even ask Lan Ruo about the post, and the post was always in Lan Ruo's hands.

The little father-in-law was quite satisfied with what he saw and heard, and waved his hand again, "The villain wants to go back to report to the princess, so he will leave first." ”

Shen was trying to ask Mama Chen to help send off the guests, but Li Xiao's father-in-law took the first step, and said: "Aunt Lan Ruo, the Queen Mother still has something to tell her aunt, so she bothered her aunt to send me off." ”

He was about to call Lan Ruo away openly, Shen frowned, and his heart was not very happy.

Chu Qianchen turned his head to look at Lan Ruo, who was not smiling next to him, and said gently: "Aunt Lan Ruo, you can send it to your father-in-law." ”

"Yes, girl." Lan Ruo responded in an orderly manner, pinching the fingers of the invitation subconsciously and exerting himself slightly, but the serious mask on his face was still worn steadily.

Those of them who can get to this position in the palace, if they can't even be happy and angry, I'm afraid they will die of fear 11,000 times.

She thinks she is already an old goblin who has been tempered a lot, but she is still ......

Catching up with Chu Qianchen's phoenix eyes as clear as moonlight, Lan Ruo shuddered in his heart: This is simply a fox spirit that has been cultivated into nine tails!

Lan Ruobi respectfully sent the little father-in-law out of the main courtyard, followed by the two little maids of the Hou Mansion.

Li Xiaogong's father-in-law walked all the way, casually looking at the surrounding courtyards and subordinates all the way, and picked out at least twenty or thirty places in his heart. Thinking back to the various things in the Hou Mansion today, I became more and more disdainful of the Yongding Hou Mansion.

When there was no one around, Li Xiaogonggong lowered his voice and said: "I see that the second girl Chu has a gentle temperament and is a good person, you have served her for several days, what do you think of her?" ”

As he spoke, two grey sparrows fluttered their wings from behind, and their wings flapped over a few bushes, causing a "thump" sound.

Lan Ruo was startled, and when she looked back, she always felt as if there were a pair of eyes staring at her somewhere in the dark.

"The girl does have a good temperament." She whispered, looking numb.

Little Father-in-law Li didn't pay attention to Lan Ruo's expression, and while listening, he walked forward, and then asked, "How did the second girl Chu learn the rules?" The Queen Mother said, you are not too anxious, teach slowly. ”

He seemed to be worried that he had ears on the wall of the Hou Mansion, and he asked very tactfully.

Lan Ruo understood it, and all of them picked up what the other party wanted to hear and said: "The girl has studied very well, and she has always been grateful for the kindness of the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother." ”

Li Xiao's father-in-law was completely relieved, and said in his heart: It seems that Lan Ruo has really trained people, and it is also, the concubine who can't get on the stage only needs to be a little shocked, and for the sake of the Chu family, she doesn't dare to toss out any moths.

"That's good." Li Xiaogong's father-in-law said with a smile, "Then I will go back to the Queen Mother." ”

Lan Ruo sent the person to the Yimen, Li Xiaogonggong left proudly, and Lan Ruo returned to the main courtyard, Chu Qianchen was having a common relationship with the Shen family, and the smiling and chanting appearance was similar to her previous tale and docile appearance.

When Lan Ruo entered the house, Chu Qianchen raised his eyes and glanced at her.

Her eyes were careless, but Lan Ruo shuddered when she saw her, and her face turned visibly white.
