When Lu Jingzhu woke up, he caught a glimpse of Ping'er crying by the bedside, and when he looked up, he saw that he had already returned to the ink garden, and there were a few more maids around him.

Lu Jingzhu only remembered something at this time, and hurriedly covered his stomach.

At this time, Ping'er, who saw Lu Jingzhu awake, hurriedly turned around and asked people to serve medicine.

"Miss, it's okay, Doctor Fang Cai has already come to take a look, you are all right, but you were slightly choked by the fireworks, and you haven't been able to rest well in the past two days, so you fainted," Ping'er said, stepping forward to help Lu Jingzhu sit up.

Lu Jingzhu leaned on the head of the bed, looked at the two extra maids in the room, frowned, and said, "Who let these girls come?" ”

Because he was choked by the smoke, Lu Jingzhu's voice was still a little hoarse at the moment.

When Ping'er heard this, she immediately turned her head and ordered, "You all go down, Second Miss, I have to serve here." ”

The two maids behind him immediately bowed their heads and left.

Ping'er said, "It's the master." When the master came back, he saw that you had fainted, so he said that the slave and maid were not well taken care of, and the people who served in the ink garden should be more cautious in the future, and said that he was afraid that there would not be enough people to serve you, so he dialed three girls in the front yard. ”

Lu Jingzhu's face was indifferent, and he couldn't help but have a sneer on his lips.

What she gambled on this time was that Lu Bingyan didn't dare to joke with the life in her stomach.

When she asked her to go to the ancestral hall that day, she understood that Lu Bingyan just hadn't figured out what to do next at the moment.

People like Lu Bingyan didn't figure out the thoughts of the Heavenly Family, so they couldn't make up their minds for a while.

Seeing that there were people in the palace, he was afraid of getting into trouble, so he could only put her in the ancestral hall for pretense, but he did not punish her.

At first, she was worried that she would be useless in front of Lu Bingyan from now on, but last night she figured it out.

How could Lu Bingyan give up the chips in her stomach.

So she took a gamble to see if her good father was willing to let go of her stepping stone.

Sure enough, now Lu Bingyan is afraid that he has figured it out.

Whether Concubine Yun recognizes or disagrees with the child in her belly, since this child is the Third Highness, she can't let anything happen to the child in her belly.

At this time, the maid who was instructed to serve the medicine also came in with the medicine.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw that the people who were accompanying me were gone, and I couldn't help but be stunned.

Lu Jingzhu turned his eyes to look at the maid at this time, suddenly smiled, and said, "What's your name?" ”

This maid was originally a rough maid who cleaned the front yard, thinking that she was not serving well, and she did not do well somewhere, which made Lu Jingzhu unhappy.

Immediately knelt down in a panic, and even the decoction in his hand was spilled on the ground.

"The slave deserves to die, the second lady forgives her sins!"

Seeing that the maid was so panicked, Lu Jingzhu sneered, "I asked you what your name is, is it possible that you will be eaten by me if you answer this question?" ”

The maid hurriedly shook her head, "No······ No, the slave is stupid, and the slave is called Xiaomei. ”

Lu Jingzhu looked at the decoction in Xiaomei's hand, and glanced at Ping'er again.

Seeing this, Ping'er immediately stepped forward to take the decoction in Xiaomei's hand, "Miss's decoction, I'll serve it, you ······ first."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lu Jingzhu: "You go and see your father, and tell your father by the way, I'm awake." ”

Xiaomei hurriedly bowed her head, got up and exited the door.

Ping'er walked to Lu Jingzhu with the decoction and was about to feed Lu Jingzhu two sips.

Lu Jingzhu raised his hand and knocked over the decoction.

Ping'er immediately knelt down, "Miss, the slave knows her mistake." ”

"Wrong?" Lu Jingzhu raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Slave ······" Ping'er really didn't know what she was wrong, but when she saw Lu Jingzhu lose her temper, she knew that she knelt down and admitted her mistake at this time.

"You're not wrong, it's just that I don't want to drink this medicine," Lu Jingzhu said, sighing slightly.

"But the doctor said······" Ping'er wanted to say something, but when she saw that Lu Jingzhu's eyes suddenly became sharp, she immediately stopped talking.

I heard Lu Jingzhu say again: "Who knows if there is anything in that medicine that will harm my child, you have to be more careful in the future, those girls rushed to work in the yard." ”

Ping'er bowed, "Yes, Miss." ”

Lu Bingyan is in the study at the moment.

It's so easy to get back to the house, and before I have time to rest, the official document from the Ministry of Rites was sent to my home again.

This means that if he takes leave to go home, this official business still has to be handled by him.

"Why didn't I find out that the Ministry of Rites had raised some rice buckets before!" Lu Bingyan said as he picked up the pen on the table.

I was about to put down my pen, but I suddenly stopped.

Thinking that he rushed back today, Lu Jingzhu had already fainted, but fortunately, the doctor diagnosed and treated the fetus in his womb and said that the fetus was fine, so he was a lot more relieved.

Now he is thinking about how to think of a way to make Concubine Yun's mother and son admit what he has done, after all, his official cannot be degraded in vain, and the reputation of his Lu family cannot be ruined in vain.

As he pondered, he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Lu Bingyan frowned, now that there is no Steward Zhao, and there is no one to report, this sudden knock on the door is really annoying.

Immediately asked, impatiently, "What's the matter?" ”

I heard the voice of the maid outside, "Master, the second lady is awake." ”

Lu Bingyan's brows relaxed slightly, and said, "Let the second young lady recuperate, I will go to see her later." ”

"Yes, sir," the maid replied from outside the door.

Immediately, there was no sound.

At this time, Lu Bingyan suddenly remembered Lu Guanlan again.

After rushing back to see Lu Jingzhu today, he went back to the study, and as soon as he drank a cup of tea, he had to sit in the front hall for a while with the paperwork sent by his colleagues from the Ministry of Rites, but he had no time to care about where Lu Guanlan was today.

There was such a big thing in the ancestral hall at home, and Lu Guanlan didn't show up.

I knew that he had returned home, and I did not know how to send someone to greet him.

This Rao is no matter how arrogant her daughter is, and it is really too much to do this.

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and shouted outside: "Steward Zhao." ”

But the domestic servant came from outside, and it was Ah Wang, the son and nephew of Steward Zhao, who used to be in charge of the front yard.

"Master, Steward Zhao has already returned to his hometown, what do you have to tell the little one to do it," Ah Wang said as he stood at the door.

Lu Bingyan was helpless.

At this moment, he forgot that Steward Zhao was no longer in the house.

This is usually Steward Zhao who comes to report things everywhere, and it is also Steward Zhao who speaks for him.

Now that Steward Zhao is not here, it really makes him a little uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, Lu Bingyan ordered, "Go to Taoyuan to see if the eldest lady is there, if she is, let her come to the study to see me." ”

Ngawang answered yes at the door, and then turned his head and retreated.

Lu Bingyan turned his head to look out of the window at this time, and saw that outside the half-open window, the plum blossoms were blooming just right.

This family, I don't know when, has completely changed.

His eldest wife died, one of his concubines died, his eldest son was sent away, and his second son never returned home.

Now it seems that he has ended up in a situation where his family is ruined.

What could be worse than this now?

After Lu Guanlan returned to the city from the Taoist temple, he first went to the longevity store, took the coffin and put it in the private house.

I wanted to meet Jiang Queshu and ask my senior brother how the situation was, but there was no one to see, so I had to turn around and go home, so that I could go back and plan how to sing this play well tomorrow.

When he came out of the private house, Lu Guanlan felt that the feeling of staring at a pair of eyes behind him was heavier.

I couldn't help but open the side curtain to look outside, and when I passed by the alley, I really caught a glimpse of a figure passing by, but I couldn't see whether I was dazzled and mistook the cat for a person, or if it was really someone.

Chu Yu saw that Lu Guanlan's behavior was a little strange on the side, so he asked: "Seeing that you have been restless today, it is easy to look better when you come out of the Taoist temple, why is it like this now?" ”

Lu Guanlan turned around and asked Chu Yu, "Do you notice anyone around us?" ”

Chu Yu was stunned when he heard this, "Around us?" ”

As he spoke, he also lifted the side curtain on the other side and looked, "There are quite a lot of people out of the alley." ”

Lu Guanlan was silent, just frowned.

Either she was too worried, or there were people around her who were much higher than Chu Yu.

However, if it is the latter, then what is the purpose of this person?

Now that the reputation of the Lu family has been damaged, the story about the phoenix life of the Lu family's concubine has long been forgotten, and now she is no longer noticed by everyone in Beijing, so how can she cause trouble.

Besides, everything she does now is done in secret, and not many people can notice it, let alone know it.

If it wasn't for her—then why?

In order to ······ Li Duan?

Thinking of this, she immediately asked the coachman to turn the car around and go back to the private house.

Chu Yu and Ah Li were both at a loss, but they just looked at Lu Guanlan in a daze, and their brows were tightly locked at the moment.

Lu Guanlan was expressionless at the moment, only his eyebrows were deeply furrowed, but he couldn't see what he was thinking.

After the carriage returned to the private house, Lu Guanlan didn't have time to explain, so he jumped out of the carriage and pushed the door in.

The yard was quiet as if nothing had happened.

"Grandma Sun?" Lu Guanlan first called softly.

didn't hear any movement, so he shouted Grandma Sun's name again.

Still no movement.

Lu Guanlan didn't care much, so he immediately walked to the house where the coffin was placed in the backyard.

Behind him, Chu Yu followed, and Ah Li also lifted her skirt to keep up.

When he arrived outside the house, Lu Guanlan pushed the door open, but the person was stunned on the spot.

I saw that the coffin, which was fine before, was now split into wooden blocks by something and scattered all over the ground.

Chu Yu came to take a look, and he also gasped.

It was fine before leaving, why did you come back after a while and see that this good coffin has become like this?

Ah Li also exclaimed when she saw it, and immediately asked, "Xiao ······ Miss, what shall we do? ”

Lu Guanlan's face at this moment suddenly became calmer than before.

She has been uneasy for so long today, and now she finally understands who the person behind this is directed at.

Although I don't know who is behind it, and how many people have noticed the strangeness of this matter, if she can do this, she should know much more than she thinks.

It's just that no matter how much this person knows, he doesn't know her character.

Thinking about it, she turned around and spoke slowly to Chu Yu, "Let the longevity store make more coffins, you find an opportunity to send it directly to the Taoist temple tonight." ”

"Yes." ”

In the teahouse, Cang He was holding a teacup and watching the storyteller on the stage chatter.

Behind him, a figure flashed, and then there was another person beside him.

"It's already done," Yan said softly.

Cang He smiled slightly, "Sit down, and listen to the great achievements of this Dacheng General Li." ”

Yan didn't really sit down, still standing respectfully aside.

"The stage has been demolished, I don't know how they will sing in the next play," Canghe said, pouring all the tea in the teacup on the ground.

He also said: "The play is a good show, but unfortunately, the tea is not good." ”
