Chapter 136: Wait and see
Lu Jingzhu thought as he raised his hand and put down his pen.
When Cheng Ye received the letter, he heard that it was sent by the Lu family, and his heart moved.
But when he took out the letter and took a look, he saw that it was the name of the second lady of the Lu family, and his face sank.
The attendant on the side saw it and didn't dare to ask more.
After reading it, Narino threw the letter into the censer.
Looking up at the scenery in the courtyard, I couldn't help but hook the corners of my lips.
"Yuzhu, you said that this Lu family is really useful to the main hall?" Naruno suddenly spoke.
The attendant on the side, Yuzhu, bowed his head, "Although Lord Lu is only in the position of Shangshu now, but looking at His Majesty's meaning, I really appreciate the meaning of Lord Lu, if I take this opportunity to win over the Lu family, I want to come, at the ceremony of sealing the king, His Royal Highness should also thank you for the opportunity." β
Cheng Ye smiled, "Speaking of which, the ceremony of sealing the king was also prepared by the Ministry of Rites. β
Thinking about it, he stood up and walked out.
Yuzhu on the side hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, but you want to go to Tongyun Concubine Niangniang to ask for peace?" β
Cheng Ye smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "Go to the Tai Hospital." β
The news that Cheng Ye invited the imperial doctor for the Lu family soon reached Yun Concubine's ears.
When she heard the news, Concubine Yun was embroidering a purse for the emperor, and a needle pierced her fingertips.
Seeing this, Xilian hurriedly took off her handkerchief and wrapped her fingers for Concubine Yun, and angrily scolded the internal officials who came to report on the side, "When Your Highness went to the hospital, why didn't you come to report!" β
The internal official knelt on the ground tremblingly, and muttered: "When His Royal Highness went out, he only said that he was here to greet his mother. β
Concubine Yun waved her hand and motioned for the official to step down.
As if he had been granted amnesty, the internal officials hurriedly got up and withdrew from the outside of the hall.
Yun Concubine looked at the blood stained on the purse in a daze, and didn't speak for a long time.
When Xilian saw it on the side, she couldn't help but be a little worried, so she couldn't help but say: "Don't worry, Niangniang, maybe Your Highness is Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·."
Yun Concubine suddenly sneered, "What is it?" Song Yuemei's mother and daughter are really good means, one sends a letter to the palace, begging the palace to help her daughter enter the palace, and the other sends a letter to the son of the palace, begging the son of the palace to help her little mother ask for a doctor. This mother and daughter, do you really feel that this palace is so easy to handle? β
Xilian was silent, and when she saw Yun Concubine suddenly get up, she hurriedly stepped forward to support Yun Concubine.
I heard Yun Concubine say again: "If I said that the palace still felt that Yun Li's girl was missing, it had nothing to do with Song Yuemei, she Song Yuemei didn't have the courage, but now I feel that the ambition and courage of Song Yuemei's mother and daughter are not small." β
As she spoke, Concubine Yun had already walked to the door of the palace.
Raising his eyes to look at the sky, he asked Xilian on the side: "How many days are left, is the palace banquet?" β
Xilian bowed her head and said: "Back to Niangniang, there are five days left." β
Yun Concubine smiled slightly, "It's almost there." β
Cheng Ye invited Song Yuemei for Lu Jingzhu to invite the oldest doctor Wang Tai from the Tai Hospital.
The imperial physician often treats the nobles in the palace, but it is the first time he has returned to this official mansion.
Lu Bingyan also knew this imperial physician, and knew that the person who could invite the imperial physician must be the head of the palace.
Although he was a little suspicious, he thought that since he came to Lu's house for diagnosis and treatment, he should be treated as a guest, and he didn't ask anything.
After reading it for Song Yuemei, Doctor Wang opened a list, and said to Lu Bingyan: "Lord Lu, please send someone from your family to go to the Tai Hospital with me to get medicine." β
Lu Bingyan was a little flattered, and hurriedly arranged for Steward Zhao to enter the palace with Imperial Doctor Wang in person.
As soon as Imperial Doctor Wang left, Lu Bingyan breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at Aunt Song, who was still asleep, Lu Bingyan was a little puzzled.
This is just a matter of allowing the doctor to come to diagnose and treat in person, and he can still use the medicine of the hospital.
I just don't know which noble person this is who invited this royal physician.
If it is said that it is the Second Highness, but the Second Highness does not belong to Jingzhu, how can he ask the imperial doctor to see Aunt Song.
But if it weren't for His Second Highness, he really couldn't think of anything that could be related to his Lu family now.
At this time, Lu Jingzhu had just brought chicken soup from the kitchen, and when he saw Lu Bingyan standing in front of A-Niang's bed, he stepped forward and saluted: "Father doesn't need to worry, the daughter is serving next to A-Niang, and my father has been very busy recently, so he should rest more." β
Lu Bingyan came back to his senses and looked at his second daughter.
Today's Lu Jingzhu is becoming more and more beautiful, although it is still worse than Lu Guanlan before his disfigurement, but ordinary people are not moved when they see their daughter.
Could it be that the Second Highness didn't express it on the surface, so as not to make people think that he was addicted to beauty, so he asked the imperial doctor behind his back because of Jingzhu?
Lu Jingzhu saw that his father was stunned, and he couldn't help but remind him again.
Lu Bingyan retracted his thoughts and nodded, "Then you take care of your little lady." β
With that, he turned around and left.
Lu Jingzhu looked back at Lu Bingyan's figure, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a smile.
Ping'er asked the girls who were waiting in the room to step back and handed the chicken soup to Lu Jingzhu.
Lu Jingzhu sat down on the edge of the bed, asked Ping'er to help Song Yuemei sit up, and fed A-Niang soup herself.
After feeding, Lu Jingzhu put down the soup bowl and took out a handkerchief to wipe it for A-Niang.
"Ping'er, go out and guard," Lu Jingzhu said suddenly.
When Ping'er heard this, she immediately withdrew from the house, closed the door, and stood guard at the door so as not to be disturbed.
Looking at Ah Niang, who was still unconscious, Lu Jingzhu suddenly smiled and said, "Ah Niang, have you seen it, the royal physician was found for you by my daughter asking His Royal Highness the Third Highness." Your Royal Highness has given you the care of the hospital, so that you can also use the medicine of this hospital. Auntie, don't worry, your daughter is now older, and in the future, she can also rely on herself to make a living. If she can win the favor of the three highnesses, her daughter will be the princess of the three princes in the future. What is Lu Guanlan, how dare you look down on you, these women in Beijing. In the future, there will definitely be a seat for A-Niang. β
Lu Guanlan heard that there was a doctor in the palace, and he just went back to see Song Yuemei.
couldn't help but smile, turned his head and asked Ah Li, "What's going on in the house today?" β
Ah Li said: "There is no movement, but Ping'er went out of the house early in the morning." β
Lu Guanlan nodded, and then asked, "What about the second brother?" β
Ah Li said: "The second young master's side, I still haven't looked at Aunt Song. β
Lu Guanlan smiled, "Come to think of it, my second brother is indeed ashamed of his own mother, maybe, I still feel that his mother is making a show for him again." β
As he spoke, Lu Guanlan suddenly remembered something and asked, "After Ping'er goes out, do you have someone to follow?" β
Ah Li was stunned for a moment, then knelt down, and said apologetically: "Slave maidΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· The slave maid never thought that she would Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· when she heard the girls in the ink garden say that she didn't bring anything out. I didn't pay attention. β
Lu Guanlan stretched out his hand to help Ah Li up, shook his head and sighed: "Do what you can do and kneel down at every turn, I am not an underworld here, and I don't want to judge you right or wrong." β
After that, Lu Guanlan pondered for a moment and asked, "When did Ping'er leave the mansion?" β
Ah Li thought back and said, "It's five o'clock. β
Lu Guanlan was silent, thought for a long time, and then his eyes lit up.
Seeing this, Ah Li asked, "What did the young lady notice?" β
Lu Guanlan smiled, "I really underestimated Lu Jingzhu." β
Ah Li was puzzled, so she asked, "What does Miss mean by this?" β
Lu Guanlan didn't answer Ah Li, but said: "There is one time, there are two times, you keep an eye on Ping'er, as long as she leaves the house, you will send someone to keep an eye on her." β
"Yes." β
As soon as Cheng Mo came out of Concubine Xian's Zhuhua Palace, he saw him bumping into Imperial Physician Wang head-on, and saw Imperial Physician Wang followed by the housekeeper of the Lu family.
couldn't help but wonder, and immediately stepped forward to stop the imperial doctor.
The imperial physician left in a hurry, and he was just walking around the palace gates, but he still bumped into the second prince, and couldn't help but bow his head and confess: "Weichen has seen the second highness, and he is in a hurry, and he didn't see his highness here." β
Cheng Mo didn't care, just looked at Steward Zhao behind Imperial Physician Wang and asked, "It's okay, I just don't know, why is this Lu family's housekeeper here?" β
Steward Zhao had seen Cheng Mo, and when he saw Cheng Mo, he also followed the Imperial Physician to salute, and when he heard Cheng Mo ask at this time, he replied: "The Imperial Physician went to the house to see a doctor, and the little one followed the Imperial Physician into the palace to get medicine." β
Cheng Mo frowned when he heard this, "See a doctor?" Who in your house is sick? β
Then I thought about it again.
It's not right, no matter who is sick in this Lu family, they are not qualified to ask for a doctor.
Then I heard the imperial doctor Wang say: "YesΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· It is the concubine room of Lord Lu. β
Hearing the words of the concubine, Cheng Mo guessed who it was.
Although Lu Bingyan has more than one concubine room in his family, the only one who can be diagnosed and treated by the imperial doctor is the favored concubine Song.
It's just that who is the one who invited the Song family to the imperial doctor?
I was thinking about it, but I heard a laugh not far away.
When Cheng Mo heard this, he saw that Cheng Ye was coming towards this side.
When he got closer, Cheng Ye saluted him and said, "I've seen the second brother." β
The two of them were kind on their faces, and Cheng Mo also looked gentle, and replied: "Why did the third brother have time to come here?" β
Cheng Ye glanced at Imperial Physician Wang, turned his head and said, "Let's see how Imperial Physician Wang's diagnosis and treatment are going, and whether he has returned to the palace." β
Cheng Ye's meaning was to tell him that the person was the one he invited to Lu's house.
The imperial physician was sandwiched between these two highnesses, neither advancing nor retreating.
Thinking about it again, in the past, he was either for His Majesty or for the lady in the palace, when did he fall to the mansion of the official family to see his aunt.
The more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I felt, but I was helpless.
Cheng Mo looked at Cheng Ye's provocation, but he was indifferent, he just turned his head and said to Imperial Doctor Wang: "Since it is to take medicine for you, then I will dispense the medicine to people earlier, so as not to delay the patient." β
As soon as Imperial Physician Wang heard this, he hurriedly took Steward Zhao and left.
Cheng Ye smiled, "The second brother is in such a hurry to break them off, but you have something to say to your younger brother?" β
Cheng Mo's face sank, "Third brother, if you are really interested in the second lady of the Lu family, after the royal ceremony, you will ask your father to give you a marriage, and now, I am afraid that it will not be good to make any noise in the Lu family." β
Cheng Ye didn't care too much, so he suddenly leaned close to Cheng Mo's ear and said softly: "Then what if I say that I have no intention of the second lady and the eldest lady?" β
Cheng Mo frowned slightly, and then returned to indifference, "Then the third brother will try, can you ask your father to marry you and the eldest lady." β
Cheng Ye hooked the corners of his lips, and his eyes flowed, "Then second brother, wait and see?" β
