Abi's death made Zhu Liangxin suffer a dark loss, and he tried his best to adjust his body, but now the situation has taken a turn for the worse. Mama Kong looked at the pale queen mother with a worried face.

"Niangniang, the deceased is gone. You can't always hold on to it. ”

Zhu Liangxin didn't answer her words, but just asked, "Have you found out some eyebrows?" ”

Mama Kong sighed and shook her head slightly. Seeing this, Zhu Liangxin sneered, angry and hateful, "Doing it so inconspicuously makes the palace impressed." ”

"Niangniang, this matter itself is full of weirdness......" Mama Kong wanted to speak and stopped.

Zhu Liangxin glanced at her coldly, "Mama, don't say anything about ghosts and monsters with this palace, you know that this palace has never believed this." If there is really a ghost asking for her life, she should go straight to the palace and hook the soul of the palace. But after so many years, aren't we all alive and well? It's her pelican palace, and now there is no grass, and it is full of ruins. ”

When Zhu Liangxin said this, he actually laughed. Mama Kong lowered her head and did not say a word. The queen is not afraid of ghosts and gods, but she is still somewhat in awe. The events of that year have always been a thorn buried in Mama Kong's heart. She didn't want to think about it, and she didn't dare to think about it.

"According to the palace, this matter should be investigated from the fourth and fifth first."

Mama Kong was stunned for a moment, "Niangniang, you doubt King Run, can the old slave figure it out...... But Qing Wangye, he ......"

Zhu Liangxin looked at Mama Kong, "Mama, you know why this palace is suspicious of him. Now, in order to be able to clear up the relationship from the Huainan County case, we can be regarded as tearing our faces with Xiao Duo. If he can be obedient and obedient, it will not be in vain for the careful cultivation of this palace back then. But...... If you can't keep a wolf cub, people are selfish, and when their lives are at stake, they will always have to find a way to protect themselves. Hongu is worried about whether Abi said something that he shouldn't have said before he died. “

"The old body understands," Mama Kong nodded, her master has always been only Zhu Liangxin. At this point, she naturally understood Zhu Liangxin's worries, "I heard from the people in the Internal Affairs Office, there are no traces of abuse on Abi's corpse... The slave maid thought to herself, maybe Ah Bi girl was not tortured to extract a confession. ”

"Extorting confessions by torture is the lowest way to get people to speak. There are many other ways to do this, which you and I don't even know. When Zhu Liangxin said this, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of Tongtian Pavilion.

She frowned slightly, and couldn't help but feel a little flustered. She has always been on the same page as Tongtian Pavilion, but fortunately, Liang Qi'an is a gentleman in the end, and she has always kept her promise and has not rooted the power in the palace in the royal capital. However, there is a case in everything.

What if Liang Qi'an has changed his mind now? What happened before made Zhu Liangxin more and more convinced that Tongtian Pavilion was already about to move. There is no other reason, just to help the Nine Emperor Princes regain everything he has lost.

Zhu Liangxin believes that if it were for Hua Yaluo and her child, Liang Qi'an would definitely break the vow he had made and fulfill their wishes. Such thoughts made Zhu Liangxin start to be a little impetuous.

"The spies who sped on Nameless Villa are back."

Mama Kong frowned and shook her head, "I haven't seen Da Langjun pass the news over in the past few days, it seems that our spies have not been able to find out who bought the Nameless Villa." ”

"In a few days, the palace wants to go to the Great Compassion Temple to ask for an ever-bright lamp for Abi, and you ask the elder brother of the palace to go with you." Zhu Liangxin closed his eyes and forced himself to calm down, and only opened his eyes for a while.

"Yes." Mama Kong answered and retreated. Zhu Liangxin was left alone to sit in this empty and lonely palace, looking at the gilded cloud patterns depicted on the corridor in a daze.

……

"Abi is dead?" Meng Yidi held the medicine that Shen Yu had boiled for her in her hand, and she was not in a hurry to drink it. After a while, he sighed and said, "Did the Internal Affairs Office say anything?" ”

"The Praetorian Guards have been on guard in the past few days, and they have also routinely interrogated various palaces. The rest, there is none. Shen Yu looked at Meng Yidi's somewhat transparent face, and wondered if he should add some qi and blood replenishment things to the decoction.

Meng Yidi was silent for a while, then picked up the bowl and drank a few sips of the decoction. It is also strange to say that the medicine that Shen Yu boiled for her did not seem to be as bitter as before, and it tasted warm and warm, and it would not make her feel irritable and resistant.

Shen Yugong stood aside respectfully, waiting for Meng Yidi to finish drinking the decoction, and hurriedly brought up the zongzi candy, and saw Meng Yidi take one into his mouth, so he removed the empty bowl, "Niangniang, we have to slowly adjust our bodies, don't be in a hurry." In the future, the mother will take the medicine on time, don't resist again, the slave will change the tricks to make some medicinal food for the mother to taste. ”

Meng Yidi shouted candy in his mouth, and after listening to Shen Yu's words, he glared at her with a smile, "Why do you think you are coaxing the child." ”

Shen Yu smiled slightly, and a pair of pear vortices appeared on the corner of his mouth, "The heart of the doctor's parents, isn't the mother just a child in the eyes of the slave." ”

Meng Yidi was stunned for a moment, seeing Shen Yu speaking to herself so without scruples, as if she had seen the deceased Xiao Liu, her nose was sour, and she lowered her head, not wanting to make a fool of herself in front of the palace people, "Okay, how do you want to treat it, this palace depends on you." ”

Listening to Meng Yidi's words, Shen Yu was really relieved. After serving carefully for so many days, the effort was finally not in vain, "Niangniang, you just drank the medicine, so you will rest for a while." This medicine will make you feel sleepy, and you will feel better when you get some sleep. ”

"Well, it's up to you." Meng Yidi nodded, let Shen Yu help him sit on the edge of the bed, and gestured to the low stool placed next to the bed with his eyes, "You sit here and talk to the palace." Anyway, for a while, Hongu couldn't sleep. ”

Shen Yu nodded and sat down obediently, "What does Niangniang want to talk about?" ”

Before Meng Yidi spoke, he subconsciously glanced at Zhu'er before he said: "For some reason, after hearing the news of Aunt Abi's death, this palace was a little sad. ”

Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, a little confused, "Why is this so?" ”

"Because ......" Meng Yidi lowered his eyes and laughed self-deprecatingly, "I don't know if it's because sick people are easy to think more, when this palace heard you say that the palace didn't thoroughly investigate Abi's affairs, I was thinking, in the inner courtyard of this deep palace, quietly let a person disappear forever, it turned out to be such a simple thing......"

Shen Yu listened to Meng Yidi's sigh, and only felt frightened. In addition, Zhu'er has been standing beside them and waiting, which makes her feel like a thorn in her back, "Niangniang is kind-hearted, but it's just ...... Abbi is Abey, you are you. You are the lord of the East Palace, Abi ......"

"You want to say that this palace is the master, and you are slaves, which is different, right?" Meng Yidi looked at Shen Yu gently, and when she finished saying this, not only Shen Yu, but even Zhu'er's body trembled slightly unconsciously.

"Hmm......" Shen Yu nodded with difficulty, she thought of the Gillian who had always been at odds with her before. Later, when Ah Cai returned to Xinglin Yuan after the catastrophe, he told her that Gillian was crazy, because she gave her innocent body to the fifth prince Xiao Duo, but Xiao Duo was unwilling to give her even the identity of a room.

is as arrogant as Gillian, naturally she can't stand it.

"It's the same, it's all the same," Meng Yidi saw that she didn't speak, and said softly, "It's all human life, what's the difference." ”

When Shen Yu heard this, he looked up at Meng Yidi with some surprise. For a moment, she felt that Meng Yidi was very similar to Ah Jin. But Ah Jin has walked in the rivers and lakes since he was a child, and he is not bound by those red tapes, and naturally there will be no class distinction. In contrast, Meng Yidi has grown up in such an environment since he was a child, and it is already very commendable to have such an idea.

"Niangniang, you can just talk to the slaves and maids about these words. If others hear it, I'm afraid they will misunderstand that you mean something else. After the shock, Shen Yu kindly reminded him.

Meng Yidi smiled, feeling a little tired, "Well, Bengong knows." ”

Shen Yu looked at her tired expression and knew that the effect of the medicine was mostly up. So she stood up and served Meng Yidi to lie down, and carefully covered her head, and exited the room with Zhu'er.

The two had just walked a few steps away, and Zhu'er suddenly asked, "The crown princess's body, when will you be able to adjust." ”

Shen Yu looked back at Zhu'er, and was unsure in her heart to ask what the purpose of this sentence was, so she replied vaguely: "It will take about half a month." ”

Zhu'er thought for a while and said, "After half a month, can I continue to take Qiuzi Soup?" ”

Shen Yu didn't give her a definite answer, but replied: "At that time, I will diagnose the pulse of the crown princess again, if there is no problem with the body, you can naturally take it." ”

"Okay," Zhu'er turned around to leave, and then turned to look at Shen Yu, "If you really want to be good for her, you should try to shorten this time and make her pregnant." In the past few days, the prince has been in the side hall. ”

Zhu'er has always been a taciturn person, and suddenly saying so much to Shen Yu in one breath made her not know how to deal with it. Zhu'er looked at the other party's stunned appearance, and knew that Shen Yu was still wary of her in her heart, so she didn't say anything else, turned around and left the East Palace.

Shen Yu looked at the back of her leaving, and suddenly felt that the burden on her shoulders had sunk a little more. She looked up at the sky with some helplessness, watching large clouds like snowflakes drift by in the wind, and only felt that she was standing in the center of the whirlpool. How difficult it is to get out of the way.

……

After Song Wenyu and his wife had lunch in the restaurant, they took a carriage to the jewelry alley. It's rare to have a sunny day, the autumn is crisp, and there are many people who come out to shop, as soon as Song Wenyu enters his brother-in-law's shop, he can't help but sigh.

"The people from your Shen family are all good at doing business. You see, this store has only been open for a few days, and it is so prosperous. ”

"That's nature. I don't know about other stores, but the raw stone materials in this store are all purchased by Shen Dalangjun himself. Where and what ore, he knows best. According to Shen Yuanwai, Mo Lin has followed his father to do business since he was seven or eight years old. When Ah Jin introduced his younger brother who could do business, his expression was proud and did not restrain him.

Song Wenyu nodded her nose dotingly, "You are more modest." ”

"It's good, why should you be arrogant." Ah Jinya replied sharply, Song Wenyu knew that he couldn't talk about her, so he didn't say anything.

"Eldest sister, brother-in-law," Shen Molin was originally looking at the account book upstairs, but when he heard Xiao Er say that Ah Jin was coming, he hurriedly went downstairs to greet the two of them in person.

Ah Jin saw him coming, and immediately smiled on his face, "We haven't come to see you for a while, and your brother-in-law happened to be resting today, so we thought about coming over to cheer you on and buy some things by the way...... But look at you here, you don't need us to cheer you on. ”

"If you want it, you can't ask for it," Mo Lin smiled and greeted the two upstairs. The three of them reached the second floor, and finally cleared up.

Ah Jin sat down and finally breathed a sigh of relief, "That loud voice just now almost made me almost escape." ”

"The shop is a little small, I actually didn't expect that the business would be so good these days," after that, Shen Molin looked at Song Wenyu again and said: "I heard that it is the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, and Wang will hold a ceremony to worship the sky." So many princes, nobles, and nobles came to place orders. ”

Song Wenyu smiled when he heard this, "The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony does happen every year, but this year's one will be extraordinarily grand." After all, there are too many things that have happened this year, and the saint wants to use this ceremony to sacrifice to the heavens to get rid of bad luck and gather the fortune of the country. In addition, it is time for the princes who are divided into foreign seals to return to Beijing once every five years to report on their work. So, it's going to be extra lively. ”

Shen Molin was stunned for a moment, his expression was a little solemn, "Brother-in-law refers to the Seven Princes who guard the east and the Three Princes who guard the north?" ”

Song Wenyu smiled and said, "There is also the eldest prince who is guarding the west." ”

Shen Molin's face turned pale when he heard this, and he was speechless for a long time. Ah Jin looked at the two people who were playing dumb riddles for some reason: "Why is this topic so heavy?" ”

Song Wenyu looked at Ah Jin, reached out and touched her hair, and slowly told him about these old things, "You may not know that the current queen Zhu is a continuation, and the original wife of the saint is Yuan, and Yuan's health has been bad since she gave birth to the eldest prince, and she passed away after a few years." At that time, the saint was still just a prince. ”

"And then?" Ah Jin blinked, she had never been interested in hearing about these things of the Emperor's Family. If she had a heart, she would have known it as early as in Tongtian Pavilion, and she would have casually asked Bai Xiaosheng, who was in charge in Tongtian Pavilion, maybe she could know more details than Song Wenyu.

Later, today's sage became the emperor, in order to further win over the family in the royal capital, he married the Zhu family, and gave birth to the second prince Xiao Shuo...... Until ......" Song Wenyu said this, and did not say any more.

Ah Jin pursed his lips, feeling that he knew what Song Wenyu wanted to say, "Until the sage led the troops out of the Yun Kingdom and brought back the princess of the dead country, and even wanted to make the prince born to the princess of the dead country the crown prince, right?" ”

"Well," Song Wenyu nodded slightly, as if he was afraid that he would be uncomfortable, he reached out and shook Ah Jin's hand, "The sage originally wanted to appoint the Nine Emperor Princes as the crown prince, and there was a voice of opposition from the government and the opposition. Fortunately, Concubine Liang had a general understanding and persuaded the sage to establish the crown prince not according to his own preferences, but to establish a virtuous person. At that time, the eldest prince and the second prince had the highest voices, but they didn't expect ...... The saint finally belonged to the four princes of the imperial concubine. Because the imperial concubine and the good concubine have always been good, it is inevitable that some people will speculate that the saint's move is suspected of loving the house and Wu. But I think the four princes deserve it. ”

"Now that the dust has settled, why are these princes separated." Ah Jin tilted his head and thought about it, always feeling that there were some things that he couldn't think clearly.

"I don't know very well about this. I vaguely remember that after the accident between Concubine Liang and the Nine Emperor Princes, the imperial concubine lived in the Great Compassion Temple, and the saint abolished the crown prince of the four princes and set up the second prince Xiao Shuo. In the second year, the eldest prince, the third prince and the seventh prince were divided into feudal seals, guarded one side, and asked them to report on their work every five years, and when they returned to the royal capital, they could only bring a pair of personal soldiers, and they could not leave the fiefdom without the permission of the saint. ”

Ah Jin listened dumbfounded, only thinking that this was a disguised captivity, but he didn't say it. After listening to the whole thing, her heart also became heavy, "Why did they come to such a good time, but in this eventful season, they have to come back to report on their work." ”

"Time, life." Song Wenyu sighed, I don't know if he was lamenting the current situation, or lamenting the many changes in fate.

Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, Shen Molin hurriedly livened up the atmosphere, "Sister, brother-in-law, how can we ordinary people understand the changes in this court." You said you were coming to cheer up my business, didn't you? If you want to do something, just tell me about it. ”

"Oh, that's it...... The second Langjun of the Song family is about to get married, and the other party is a girl from the upstart Zhuang family in the royal capital. Since we are brothers and sisters-in-law, we should give a gift to the newlyweds on the wedding day to please the bride and wife. I just don't know...... What to send. ”

"Oh, yes, yes. My brother-in-law's family also came to me before, and ordered some gilded grape pomegranate plates...... That...... My sister and brother-in-law will send a set of noodles. Shen Molin thought for a moment and asked.

Ah Jin glanced at Song Wenyu and saw that he nodded, then looked at Shen Molin and said, "Okay, I'll bother Shen Dalangjun to come up with a style first, and after we see it, we feel that we can choose the materials again." What do you think? ”

"No problem!" Shen Molin replied briskly.

"That'...... I'll pay a portion of the deposit today. Ah Jin said that he was about to take the silver ticket from his arms, but was stopped by Shen Molin.

"Sister, what are you doing? It's all their own shop, if you go to Lan Yin Kee to book a banquet, don't you have to pay a deposit? ”

"That's nature." Ah Jin's words almost choked Shen Molin to death. Song Wenyu pursed his lips and couldn't help laughing.

"That's not good, where is the reason to be a younger brother to take a deposit from his sister. It's not that you don't want your money, you just keep it, and then we will pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. Shen Molin blushed, and insisted that Ah Jin put the silver ticket back.

"In this case, thank you brother." Seeing this, Song Wenyu thanked him at the right time.

Shen Molin smiled and said, "It should be...... Speaking of which, I have been open for a long time, but I have not been able to find the right person to inscribe. I heard that my brother-in-law's handwriting is good, I don't know if my brother-in-law can inscribe a plaque for my brother's shop. ”

Ah Jin raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart, it turned out that he was waiting here. The Shen family really doesn't do loss-making business.

Song Wenyu looked at the sisters and brothers with a smile and a smile, only saying that these two people are human spirits, and they can't afford to lose a little, "Okay, there's no problem." ”

"Come on, put pen and ink!" Shen Molin smiled heartily, and hurriedly went down to beckon the shopkeeper to take a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. Song Wenyu and Ah Jin were left sitting upstairs, looking at each other and smiling.

"This king is becoming more and more uneasy, you should be careful in everything." Ah Jin remembered what he said before, shook Song Wenyu's hand, and said with trepidation.

"Well, I will." Song Wenyu nodded.

As the two were talking, they heard a commotion downstairs. Ah Jin stood on the edge of the railing and looked at it, but he couldn't see it really, so he had to retract his body again.

"What's going on down there?" Song Wenyu looked at her and asked.

Ah Jin shook his head, saying that he didn't see it clearly, "I'll go down and take a look, it seems that the girls are arguing with each other, Shen Dalangjun is a man, there is definitely no way to persuade this kind of fight." ”

Song Wenyu pulled her silently, and said after a while: "You be careful." ”

"Well, you're waiting for me up there." Ah Jin patted her hand, then took Ah Zhen down the attic, and quietly pulled Shen Molin aside and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Shen Molin raised his chin towards the two women standing in the center of the shop and said, "One is the daughter of Shangshu Mansion, and the other is ...... It seems to be a concubine in King Qing's mansion? ”

Hearing this, Ah Jin raised his head and glanced at the woman carefully, and muttered, "It's really her." ”

"Why do you know those two women, eldest sister?"

"I just recognize one of them," Ah Jin said, looking at Shen Molin and explaining, "I had a relationship before, and I haven't moved around since." ”

"Oh, then the eldest sister is going to wade through this troubled water for her brother? The daughter of the Shangshu family is so powerful, I'm afraid that if I go up to persuade me to fight, I will still be scolded for being a bloody dog. Shen Molin said half-jokingly.

Ah Jin glared at her angrily, "I went up to persuade her, and it was the same." However, for your sake, you have to give it a try. ”

With that, Ah Jin pushed aside the crowd and came to the two. The Shangshu Qianjin was sneering at Baoqin, and suddenly saw Ah Jin walking up with a smile on his face, and he was stunned for a moment.

"This girl, you've been thirsty for so long, aren't you? The concubine asked the store to prepare melon and fruit snacks, you go to the private room to drink tea and eat some snacks, and pick a few more satisfactory jewelry by the way. ”

"...... you" Li Wen, the daughter of the household department, looked at Ah Jin with a smile, and saw that she was not dressed like an ordinary person, and before she figured out the identity of the other party, she didn't embarrass Ah Jin, "Forget it, don't look at it." Visiting the same store with something that doesn't have a countertop on the table is unappetizing just to think about. ”

After that, Li Wen glared at Baoqin again, and then brushed her sleeves and left. As soon as she left, the ladies and girls who had come with her before all left one after another. Shen Molin stood aside, watching the customers in the store suddenly walk more than halfway, and couldn't help but feel a little painful.

"Greetings to ladies and gentlemen." Ah Jin stood at the door with a smile and said aloud in the direction where everyone left, then he turned his head to look at Baoqin, who was already crying, and said, "Baoqin girl, do you still remember the concubine." ”

Baoqin raised her head and looked at Ah Jin for a long time before nodding with a complicated expression, "Thank you, Mrs. Song, for relieving the slave family." ”

"It's a gesture. Besides, this is my brother's shop, and she is making such a fuss here, and she is also messing with my mother's business, and I don't think I will follow it. After Ah Jin said this, seeing that Baoqin was unwilling to talk about this issue, he said again: "The melon and fruit dim sum I just mentioned is indeed prepared." Do you want to go to the private room to sit down? ”

Baoqin opened her mouth, as if she wanted to agree. But after thinking about it again, he finally shook his head, "Thanks to Mrs. Song's love, it's just that the slave family feels unwell now and wants to go home." Mrs. Song, we'll see you later. ”

"See you later." Ah Jin didn't continue to stay, just stood at the door, watching the maid walk out of the door with the qin. I saw that she had just stepped out of the door and stopped.

"I don't know if Mrs. Song knows someone who can mend the strings?" Baoqin turned to Ah Jin and asked.

Ah Jin was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "I know one or two, is the girl holding the piano going to mend the strings?" ”

"Well, the strings of the lute are broken. I haven't been able to find a suitable store to help make up for it," Baoqin looked a little lonely when he said this.

"The girl holding the piano can carry the pipa to my house when she is free, and I will still be able to make up the strings in general." Ah Jin saw her look so sad, and suddenly said such a sentence, impulsively not like her.

Baoqin was also a little surprised that Ah Jin would take the initiative to invite her to the Song Mansion, and after being stunned for a long time, I saw her nod lightly, and thanked Ah Jin before leaving.

Ah Jin turned around and saw Shen Molin looking at him without saying anything, so he said, "If you have anything to say, it's all your own family, you don't have to think about it." ”

"The eldest sister is confused. Dealing with her may make it more difficult for the eldest sister to gain a foothold in the inner city. Shen Molin followed Ah Jin upstairs and persuaded bitterly.

"It's not a relationship. are all people who love music and rhythm, and looking at her lonely appearance, she is always a little unbearable, so she opened this mouth. Ah Jin turned back and smiled at Shen Molin embarrassedly, and said to Song Wenyu: "The matter has been settled, let's go." ”

Song Wenyu nodded, and as soon as he stood up, he saw Shen Molin looking at Ah Jin with a look of hatred for iron, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”

Before Ah Jin could speak, Shen Molin preemptively said what had just happened below. As soon as he finished speaking, he added, "Brother-in-law, you also persuade the eldest sister that living in this inner city is no happier than living in the rivers and lakes." Think twice about what you say or do. ”

After listening to Shen Molin's narration, Song Wenyu turned his head to look at Ah Jin, who glared at him like a bluffing kitten, "What, you have to count me down a few words?" ”

"It's okay to let Baoqin come to the Song Mansion, but it's not okay to go to the Qingwang Mansion." Song Wenyu said such a sentence seriously, so that Shen Molin, who was nagging on the side, had nothing to say.

Ah Jin smiled when he heard this, took his arm affectionately, and left the store.
