Hearing the news of Chu Jiao's return, Su Jinhua came to visit, Chu Jiao looked at it, it was still that bright appearance, but there was a little unusual between the eyebrows.

"I'm very worried when I hear your news, but my father and brother won't let me go out, but fortunately you're okay now."

"Well, fortunately, everything is safe, by the way, how do you feel after you and Yao Jue get married?"

It's okay if you don't mention the previous things, but when you mention it, Su Jinhua feels big.

"Don't mention it, there's nothing good or bad, you know I've always been a strong character, he spends all day in Flower Street and Willow Lane, where can I tolerate it."

"I went to catch him a few times, and he often made jokes, which really lost the face of our Su family, or the saint reprimanded him, he was willing to stop for two days, and I don't know how to live in the future."

Su Jin painted a look of hating iron but not steel, Chu Jiao smiled, too, such a woman should not be able to tolerate sand in her heart.

"What would you think if your husband was also in Flower Street and Willow Lane all day long?"

Su Jinhua asked with some curiosity.

"I won't let him have that kind of opportunity, by the way, I'm planning to find him some concubines or side concubines recently, do you know any young ladies who look good? Family affairs are not very important, the main thing is good conduct. ”

Su Jinhua smiled: "I didn't expect that there would be people who married their husbands this year, probably you are the first person, with your husband's temperament, but don't let him harm others, you are enough." ”

Listening to her teasing tone, Chu Jiao understood in her heart that Su Jinhua deliberately did not help herself, and she only smiled: "If you don't help me, I will find it myself." ”

The two of them were talking at this moment, when they suddenly heard a noise next to them.

The two of them looked for prestige, but they saw Qin Shao standing there, his face was not very good, and he couldn't see anything: "I don't know if you two will drink tea here, I'll sit down and talk to my wife about something, I won't disturb it."

Su Jinhua didn't wait to speak, Qin Shao sat down first, seeing that his expression was indifferent, his eyes were locked on Chu Jiao: "The emperor left me in the palace that day and said that he wanted to choose a side concubine for me, but he thought of going with you, so you don't have to worry at this time, everything is naturally decided by the saint." ”

Chu Jiao nodded: "The saint selection will naturally not be bad." ”

Looking at Chu Jiao's somewhat detached eyes, Qin Shao's eyes sank, but he was very close a few days ago, but he didn't know that he had been cold again, and he didn't know why this woman was so fickle.

"I remembered that there were still some things in the house, so I will leave first, and come back to play with you another day." Su Jinyan saw that the situation was wrong, so he hurriedly excused himself and left, only two people remained, and Chu Jiao also got up.

Qin Shao sat on the stone bench, looking secretive, and Xiuying didn't know what he was thinking.

Chu Jiao returned to the room and accidentally thought that Qin Shao still had a side concubine outside, and she remembered that there was such a thing.

asked the mother-in-law below, and the mother-in-law said that although the girl was a side concubine, Qin Shao had never touched her, and the mother-in-law didn't dare to say more, after all, Qin Shao didn't say anything.

Chu Jiao didn't embarrass her, so she called Xiuying: "That girl has been raised outside for a long time, and the influence of our prince is not good, so it is better to pick up that girl back when she hits the day." ”

When Xiu Ying heard this, he seemed to have heard some kind of fantasy, so he had to go back and hurriedly went to find Qin Shao.

"Did she really say that?" Qin Shao's eyes were very dark, and when he spoke, people couldn't hear joy and anger.

Xiuying nodded, Qin Shao immediately stood up as if he was going to ask for an explanation, but after a while, he sat down again and waved his hand at Xiuying and said, "That's it, follow her." ”

Another day passed, and the two had dinner together in the evening, Qin Shao said, "Is her room ready?" ”

"Don't worry, I have already ordered my mother-in-law to clean it up, leaving the largest yard except me to her, and the people are all fully equipped, I heard my mother-in-law say that her health is not good, so I also left two doctors in her room, and I can take care of it in time if something happens."

Qin Shao let out a cold snort from the tip of his nose: "You have everything you think." ”

Actually, that's not what he wanted to ask.

He wanted to ask why Chu Jiao's whole person had changed so much after returning to the capital, but he became like this when he said it.

He thought that the relationship between the two people should always go further, but he didn't expect to stay in the same place.

"As a housewife, I think naturally and thoughtfully, everything comes first to the prince, I am full, so I will go back first." Saying that, Chu Jiao stood up and walked straight towards her room without looking back.

Looking at the back of the money gone, Qin Shao's heart sank a little more.

Chu Jiao was not in the mansion on the day she brought the person back, she went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, since the epidemic passed, Chu Jiao had to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion almost every two or three days, and Chu Zhennan was very happy.

However, Chu Jiao made a new discovery, because Mama Wang, who used to serve beside the eldest lady, was gone, and Chu Jiao asked the other maids and maids, but they all knew nothing, and only said that Mama Wang had returned to her hometown.

Mama Wang's hometown is far away from the capital, but when she heard that Mama Wang returned to her hometown, Chu Jiao felt a little strange in her heart. Because the Wang family has no relatives. She was the only one left, what was she doing back to her hometown at such an age?

And still before the death of the eldest lady?

Mama Wang has been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years, serving the eldest lady for so many years, and she has no merit and hard work.

Even if the eldest lady is dead, the Prime Minister's Mansion will definitely not treat her badly, and will let her live for the rest of her life.

But before the eldest lady died, she left.

The eldest lady is seriously ill, shouldn't she be by her side?

It's all because she didn't put her mind on this before, she thought that as long as she developed a new prescription, and then stabilized her mother's mood and found good medicinal materials, she could save her mother's life.

A series of doubts arose in the Chu family's heart, but these had to meet Mama Wang herself to know the truth of the matter.

In Chu Jiao's hands, there was no manpower that could be mobilized except Xiuying, so Chu Jiao asked Xiuying to investigate this matter.

Xiuying came back for three days, of course his strength alone was not enough, Qin Shao ordered his men to follow and look for it, and then he found Mama Wang.

It's just that Xiuying brought back a corpse, and Chu Jiao was shocked, because it was very troublesome to transport the corpse, so the process was very careful.

This corpse, it looks like a long time has passed, and the worms are attached to it.

But Chu Jiao didn't have the heart to be disgusted, there was no epidemic in the place where Mama Wang passed, how could she die on the way?

After checking the body, there were no traces of injury, and I asked for a careful examination, and after disemboweling, I found that it was poisoned.

Xiuying said at this time: "This grandma is really pitiful, when I found her, I was in a mass grave, where there were a lot of corpses, if it wasn't for our people to investigate carefully, we wouldn't have been able to find her at all, but it was also in a mass grave just out of the capital, thinking that Mama Wang's front foot just stepped out of the capital, and the back foot person died." ”

"Can you find out what these poisons are?"

He nodded and said bluntly that it would take a few days to produce concrete results.

At this time, Chu Qing came back, and Chu Jiao hurriedly asked people to take the body back to the house.

When she saw Chu Qing again, she was wearing a white plain dress, obviously mourning, but her expression did not show any tiredness, but was a little weird inside.

Although Chu Jiao didn't say anything, she felt strange in her heart, coupled with the previous peace and blessing incident, she thought it was necessary to ask her.

Chu Qing and Chu Jiao were in the same room, and they didn't know what they were talking about.

After a while, Chu Qing let out an exclamation, and when he heard the sound and rushed over, he found that Chu Qing's cheeks were red, and his eyes were red as if he had been greatly wronged.

Chu Zhennan looked at Chu Jiao with a shocked expression, after all, the palms and backs of his hands were full of meat.

"Good daughter, don't cry, what's going on?"

"Dad, it's all my fault, I didn't take good care of my mother, my mother died and I did have a sin, it just so happens that I don't have a husband now, it's better to let me go with my mother!" Saying that, Chu Qing's body broke free, and Chu Zhennan slammed headlong into the pillar.

Bright red blood flowed down Chu Qing's head, and her body fell to the ground limply.

Seeing the red in this room, everyone panicked, Chu Zhennan hurriedly stepped forward to visit, fortunately there was a faint snort, he hurriedly invited the doctor to see Chu Qing's situation.

From beginning to end, Chu Jiao looked at it coldly, and she didn't show any performance at all.

Chu Qing woke up after a long while, and her head was already wrapped with gauze.

Chu Zhennan sat beside her and carefully tucked the quilt for her: "What's wrong with you two sisters?" If you have something to say, make it clear, don't do stupid things in the future. ”

As soon as Chu Qing mentioned this, she didn't say anything, she bit her lip tightly, and tears fell down.

Chu Zhennan saw that he couldn't ask a thing or two from Chu Qing, so he asked Chu Jiao: "What the hell is going on with you!" ”

But Chu Jiao, who has always been able to speak well, didn't squeak anymore, just lowered her head and stared at Chu Qing all the time, with a complicated expression.

"You two sisters, if you hide anything from me, I won't allow it."

The two of them refused to say anything, and Chu Zhennan was also in a hurry.

It was Chu Jiao who spoke first: "Dad, I'm tired and want to go back first." ”

She didn't wait for Chu Zhennan to finish speaking, the person left, listening to the sound of Chu Qing crying and crying behind her, she only felt that the whole person was in a trance, and the whole person was cold.

Chu Jiao sat in the carriage and recalled what she had just said.

"I know that my status is not as good as you, but I only like Yao Chi, even if I can't marry him, I don't want to marry someone else, but I didn't expect it all to be ruined by you, you let me marry the son of the Pan family, what's the difference between letting me die? By the way, do you know why Pan Zhou died suddenly? I killed it. ”
