The night before yesterday I didn't close my eyes, last night, Huan Ling finally rested peacefully, but the next day I also got up early in the morning, came to Xie Zheng's room, Yuzhi brought hot water and was about to wash Xie Zheng, he grabbed the hand towel for Xie Zheng to wipe his face and wiped his hands, and held a spittoon to serve Xie Zheng to rinse his mouth, the kitchen maid sent breakfast, and he rushed over to feed Xie Zheng personally, although he was willing to do everything, but also dedicated his hospitality.

Xie Zheng was helped by the jade branch to sit up, Huan Ling held the porridge bowl in one hand, and the spoon in the other, scooped up the gruel spoonful by spoon, and after blowing it cool, he sent it to Xie Zheng's mouth one by one, a palm-sized bowl, full of gruel, Xie Zheng only ate half of it, and said: "It's full." ”

"That's full?" Huan Ling looked at most of the gruel in the bowl and said, "Why don't you eat some more?" ”

Xie Zheng was extremely silent, as if he had a thousand words, and only said: "I can't eat it, you eat." ”

Huan Ling insisted on telling her to eat more, so she had an idea, and said with a smile: "That... I take a bite, you take a bite? ”

Unexpectedly, Xie Zheng turned his face cold, turned his face inward, and didn't talk to Huan Ling, Huan Ling was afraid that he would make her angry, and he was a little at a loss for a while, and suddenly saw the maid bring the soup, he hurriedly brought it, and said with a smile: "I don't want to eat the porridge, the medicine should always be drunk, right?" ”

When Xie Zheng heard this, he turned his face sideways, Huan Ling scooped a spoon of hot and hot decoction, but he forgot to blow it cold, so he sent it to Xie Zheng's mouth, and thought he was very intimate, and called with a smile: "Come,"

He forgot to blow the medicine, but Xie Zheng saw it, she watched Huan Ling scoop up a spoon of soup medicine, but he didn't blow it and sent it to her mouth, he was silent, but he also closed his mouth and didn't want to drink, Huan Ling saw her like this, thinking that she always thought that the medicine was bitter, so he said: "I told them to put honey, not bitter." ”

Xie Zheng glanced at him, and then said one word succinctly: "Hot." ”

Huan Ling was stunned for a moment, then reacted, hurriedly took back the spoon, and said with a smile: "I forgot...... It's my bad ......."

After he said that, he hurriedly blew the medicine, and tried the warmth himself, and then fed Xie Zheng to drink, but he tried the warmth of almost every spoon, Xie Zheng drank the medicine, suddenly smiled, looked at Huan Ling, and said: "I drank half of it, and the county marquis also drank half of it." ”

Huan Ling was stunned for a moment, yes, he seemed to have really drunk a lot of the medicine, and then he laughed at Xie Zheng twice, and only said: "With honey, it's quite sweet to drink." ”

Yuzhi was standing aside, and when he heard Huan Ling say this, he couldn't help but smile, covered his mouth and smiled secretly.

After a burst of laughter, Xie Zheng suddenly became much colder, and she asked, "Can the one who sent someone assassinate me be brought to justice now?" ”

It turned out that Xie Zheng was worried about this matter, she thought that the Gu Lu clan sent someone to assassinate her, and that night, the county lord of Liyang and the county lord of Xinning heard the assassin's words with their own ears, the Gu Lu clan would inevitably be unable to escape this catastrophe, and the Gu family would inevitably be implicated, but she always felt that not all the people of the Gu family were guilty.

Huan Ling replied truthfully: "I have been sent to the court lieutenant prison, and in six days, I will be tried in the third division of the court lieutenant office, and I will be convicted at that time." ”

Tingwei Prison? Triage? Xie Zheng was stunned, imagine that the three divisions of Sili Mansion, Yushitai and Sili Mansion are all set up for the Chinese and military officials, the princes and generals on the trial, and the petty officials of the nine grades have never been tried, but there has never been a precedent for trying the common people, the court lieutenant office is still like this, and the people in the court lieutenant prison are naturally all people from the public family, but Gu Lu is just an ordinary woman, although she is the mother of the scholar family, but she does not eat public food after all, she committed a crime, she should be taken to the prison of Jingzhao Yin Mansion, but how can she ......

Xie Zheng's face was full of doubts, and he asked, "Tingwei Prison?" How is the Imperial Prison? Shouldn't it be the Jingzhao Yin Mansion that hears this case? Or is His Majesty quite concerned about this case? But no matter how serious he is, he shouldn't have asked the Imperial Lieutenant Office to handle this case......"

"Are you sleepy, an ordinary person committed a crime, and it was tried by Jing Zhaoyin Mansion, but is he an ordinary person? With his identity, this case should have been started by the Imperial Lieutenant Bureau. ”

These two are not talking about the same person now, and naturally they can't talk about going together, but Huan Ling said this, Xie Zheng seemed to have noticed that something was wrong, a pair of willow eyebrows frowned slightly, Huan Ling suspected that she was obsessed with Gu Xun, and she was very apprehensive in her heart, but she didn't dare to say anything, she was afraid of annoying her, and then she shook her face and ignored him, so she only smiled with her and said: "Do you want to be like the case of Zhang Gou and Zhou Xuyi last year, ask Jingzhao Yin's Mansion to try it first, and then play Your Majesty, and transfer the case to the Imperial Governor's Office?" Wouldn't that be redundant? ”

Why does this case have to be tried by the Imperial Authority? Could it be that the mastermind is not Gu Lu's? But that night, the Assassin did say that he was instructed by a Madame Gu......

Without waiting for Xie Zheng to ask, Huan Ling looked at her face, and then said: "What's more, this case was personally assigned by His Majesty, and this morning in the court, it was the prince who reported the matter to His Majesty, and he summoned the county lord of Liyang and the county lord of Xinning to testify, but he confessed on the spot." ”

Pleaded guilty on the spot in court? Xie Zheng became more and more confused when he heard it, and he became more and more convinced that what Huan Ling mentioned in his words was definitely not the Gu Lu family, but the Gu family was now serving in the court, and only Gu Xun was there......

Xie Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Huan Ling suspiciously, and asked in a tentative tone: "What did the county marquis say...... Is it Gu Xun? ”

"yes, didn't he send someone to hurt you like this?" Huan Ling spoke, with anger between his eyebrows and eyes.

Xie Zheng's face was full of disbelief, and he said in a daze: "How can it be Gu Xun...... It shouldn't be ......"

She didn't continue, but Huan Ling was stunned for a moment and said, "Then who do you think it is?" This matter, but he admitted it in front of His Majesty and the crown prince, saying that he hated you for killing Gu Jiulang, so he wanted you to pay for your life, and he also made disrespectful remarks, saying that you relied on your own identity and Your Majesty's favor, so you were unscrupulous, bold, and never put anyone in your eyes. ”

Huan Ling's words were half-true, but they were not unfounded nonsense, but they were a little exaggerated, and in the end, they were just worried that Xie Zheng would not believe that Gu Xun had harmed her.

He saw Xie Zheng turning his face inward, knowing that she was uncomfortable, so he persuaded again: "This Gu Xun, it looks honest, but I didn't expect that there was such a face behind his back, when Gu Jiulang had an accident, you also said that he had never embarrassed you, it turned out that tolerance and generosity were only on the surface, but in his heart he was planning how to kill you, he was really a person who was inconsistent with the outside, and now if he hadn't been detained in Tingwei Prison, I would have taken off his head!" ”

Huan Ling originally just wanted to persuade Xie Zheng, so that Xie Zheng would stop believing Gu Xun so easily, but he never thought about it, he was talking about it, but he was angry with himself, and when it came to Gu Xun sending someone to assassinate Xie Zheng, he really wanted to dismantle Gu Xun into eight pieces!

Xie Zheng was still silent, looking at the corner of the bed at the inside of her feet with blank eyes, she was a little distracted for a while, not that she didn't want to believe that Gu Xun hurt her, but she couldn't accept it for a while.

"Deyin, did you originally think that it was the King of Linchuan and the King of Wuling who harmed you this time?" Huan Ling saw Xie Zheng turn his face away from him, and leaned forward slightly as he spoke.

Xie Zheng didn't say a word, he only nodded, and suddenly looked at Huan Ling for a long time, and asked, "Even if Gu Xun harmed me, is the Gu family not immune from being affected?" ”

"That's natural, if you raid the house, if you destroy the door," Huan Ling said, already thinking in his heart, now that Xie Zheng has asked about the Gu family, then it's time for him to ask her if she can think of a way to save Li Yuanniang, but this matter, he can't speak for a while, Yuanniang is Gu Xun's wife after all, if Deyin is angry with Yuan Niang because he hates Gu Xun, then he rashly mentions this matter, wouldn't it make her unhappy?

He was thinking about how to talk to Xie Zheng, but Xie Zheng asked Li first: "Then your cousin...... Wouldn't he be implicated as well? ”

Huan Ling was stunned for a moment, hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, frowned and said with a sad face: "Yuan Niang is innocent, but she married the wrong person, I naturally don't want her to be implicated for no reason, but now I can't save her......"

After he said that, he hurriedly looked at Xie Zheng again, and asked expectantly: "Deyin, you have always been smart, can you save yourself?" ”

Xie Zheng was silent, only retracted his gaze, no longer looked at Huan Ling, she was already thinking about countermeasures, Huan Ling sat aside, watching her look away, thinking that she was unwilling to save her, so she lowered her head again, pretending to be sad.

"My uncle came to me last night and told me that I must find a way to save Yuan Niang, but now I am helpless, so I have to ask him to ask Gao Ming, who knows that he is ...... He knelt down and begged me, insisting that I intercede with you, he said that he was now desperate, so he came to me, but I know that you must hate the Gu family to the core, and you didn't dare to agree, although my uncle didn't say anything to me when he left, but I know that if something really happened to Yuan Niang, then my uncle's family and I will definitely not have any more contact in the future......"

Xie Zheng is so smart, how can he not know what Huan Ling is thinking in his heart? She looked sideways at Huan Ling and only asked, "Have you played enough?" ”

When Huan Ling heard this, he froze suddenly, and hurriedly raised his head to look at Xie Zheng, but saw that there seemed to be a trace of displeasure in her eyes, and there seemed to be a trace of disgust, and he really couldn't guess what she meant...... Angry?

"I just want to beg you to save her......" Huan Ling looked aggrieved, and after speaking, he raised his butt slightly, and seemed to be ready to kneel down and beg Xie Zheng, but then Xie Zheng said: "Since she is your cousin, I will naturally find a way to save her." ”

Huan Ling's butt had already left the stool, and when he heard Xie Zheng's words, he sat down again and asked Xie Zheng: "Are you really willing to save her?" ”

"Since you begged me like this, then I can't refuse you," Xie Zheng originally wanted to say that the Li family was his sister, and it was within his duty to save each other, but he always wanted to save face, and he couldn't pull his face.

In fact, since she mentioned the Li family, she has been thinking about saving her, even if Huan Ling doesn't say it, she will talk to Huan Ling.

Huan Ling laughed so much, he looked left and right, he wanted to be coquettish with Xie Zheng, but he saw Yuzhi standing at the door of the inner room, there was only a bead curtain inside and outside the house, what was said inside, and he could hear it clearly outside, Huan Ling was embarrassed for a while, so he took Xie Zheng's hand and laughed in a low voice: "I know that Madam has always been a knife mouth, tofu heart." ”

Xie Zheng withdrew his hand, slapped his hand lightly, and said angrily: "Who allowed you to call me like this, it is not good for Yuzhi to listen." ”

"What are you afraid of, Yuzhi still wants to call your wife," Huan Ling suddenly said in a strange voice: "It's just some people who have never admitted that they have me in their hearts, but now it's okay, when she is well, I can hug the beauty." ”

Xie Zheng glanced at him sweetly when he heard this, and then turned away from the matter, got serious, and said: "Your cousin is now in the Gu family, and the reason why she is implicated is because she is Gu Xun's wife, and now she only needs to ask her to reconcile with Gu Xun, and when she clears up the relationship with the Gu family, even if the Gu family is full of beheadings in the future, she will not miss the slightest." ”

The method of reconciliation and separation, for the good of the Li family, almost all thought of it, but the Li family was unwilling to reconcile with Gu Xun.

"This ...... I'm afraid it won't work......"

Without waiting for Huan Ling to explain why it didn't work, Xie Zheng's temper came up again, "What?" Your cousin looks like a peugeot and has an excellent background, are you still afraid that she won't be able to find her in-laws after she leaves with Gu Xunhe? Or is your uncle afraid of losing face and can't afford to lose this person? ”

"No, my uncle went to the Gu family yesterday to talk to Yuan Niang about it, but Yuan Niang herself was unwilling, she said that she wanted to live and die with Gu Xun and refused to leave!" Huan Ling said and worried.

Xie Zheng never thought that the relationship between the Li family and Gu Xun was so deep?

"It's okay if you don't want to leave, let the Gu family demote her to a concubine, even if the Gu family raids the house in the future, she can be safe and sound, she will only be dismissed or sold as a slave by the government, if she is dismissed, she has nowhere to go, she will go home, if she is sold, just ask your uncle to come forward and say a good word, and you can bring her back."

The concubine can't be on the table, she is just a slave to the master's family, and since she is a slave, the rise and fall of the master's family naturally has nothing to do with her.

Huan Ling listened and considered: "Degrade your wife to a concubine...... It's a good idea, I didn't think of ......."

"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and tell your uncle, you go to Gu's house with him, ask Mrs. Gu to write the document by hand, and demote your cousin to a concubine, and then you take the document to Tingwei Prison, ask Gu Xun to sign, and finally send it to Jingzhao Yin Mansion for the record, isn't this matter done!"

When Huan Ling heard this, he bowed his head again and again, and responded: "Okay, Mrs. is really smart, I'll go to my uncle's house." ”

"Jade Branch!" Huan Ling called to the door when he got up, and when he turned around to go out, Yuzhi had already walked in, and he instructed again: "Take care of Madame." ”

After speaking, he hurriedly walked out, leaving Yuzhi standing in the room with a confused expression: "Madam? ”

She suddenly had a spring breeze on her face, walked quickly to the bedside stool and sat down, and called with a smile: "Madam? ”

Xie Zheng glanced at her and said angrily: "Do you believe his nonsense?" ”

Yuzhi smiled meaningfully and didn't ask much.

And Huan Ling walked quickly to the door of the Hou Mansion, all the way like a spring breeze, suddenly seemed to think of something wrong, suddenly stopped, if Deyin really thought that the King of Linchuan and the King of Wuling sent someone to kill her, then this case should be handed over to the three divisions for trial, how could she say that this case should be tried by Jing Zhaoyin Mansion, is she hiding something?

Zeng Qionglin followed behind Huan Ling, saw him stop inexplicably, and asked puzzledly: "What's wrong with the county marquis?" ”

Huan Ling was pulled back to his thoughts, only to reply: "Oh, it's nothing," and continued to walk out after speaking.
