After returning to the mansion for dinner, Li Danruo told Jiang Yanming about meeting Yao Tianshi at noon, Jiang Yanming frowned, looked at Li Danruo and said in a low voice: "What do you mean?" ”

"Well, on the day of the baptism, Empress Zou didn't even want to speak, and the daughter of Zou Mansion was only happy, and she didn't want outsiders to know about her illness. \[\]”

"You say yes, Zou Mansion feasts every day, either a literary meeting, or a tea and scenery, if you know that Zou Hou is seriously ill, Zou Wang Ye must not be in the mood for this day banquet." Jiang Yanming nodded and said, Li Danruo handed him a cup of tea, and then said: "Poor divination, rich incense, Empress Zou must be irritable and ruthless, so that people can find Yao Tianshi to approve the eight characters, and now it can make Empress Zou difficult, and this is the disease, it seems that Empress Zou is only afraid that this disease is more serious than we think, and when he is sleepy, his temper must be bad, besides, Empress Zou is originally a hard and impatient personality." ”

Jiang Yanming's eyebrows were raised and lowered, and he looked at Li Danruo and said with a smile: "Let Hong Yizhong be Ejiao, do you want him to touch this untouchable place?" Well," Jiang Yanming said with a smile while thinking about it: "This is a good idea, although Liu Guiren has a basis for Hong Yizhong's lawlessness, but Hong Yizhong's arrogance and lawlessness is not a day or two, a year or two, he has already taken refuge in Zou Hou, and now after he ascended the throne, he has been promoted from a six-grade rite official to the Privy Council, I don't know how many people have been impeached in recent years, but they have not fallen, it can be seen that grace, besides, Zou Hou is a very shrewd person, he is seriously ill at this time, and he should be stable, if there is nothing unexpected, he will never allow anyone to move Hong Yizhong, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council." ”

"Well, last time I went to Zou Mansion with my aunt to congratulate Uncle Zou and his concubine to have a child, the Hong family gave a very heavy gift, Mrs. Hong Yizhong is stammering, heavy flattery must be a request, Hong Yizhong must be eyeing this privy envoy position, the privy envoy Hai has been sick for more than a month, who doesn't want to be this envoy, if you want to ask for it, you have to drill the camp, maybe you can put him in." Li Danruo's voice was flat and low, Jiang Yanming exhaled softly, and only nodded after a while and said: "Hong Yizhong is not a very smart person, that Guo Shu, I have never been at ease, he is a confidant of Empress Zou, how can he help Liu Guiren?" It's hard to figure out. ”

Li Danruo raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows and said with a wry smile: "I can't figure it out either, but looking at Liu Guiren's appearance, it is very natural, this is her, I can trust her." Jiang Yanming stretched out his hand and hugged Li Danruo, she kissed her lightly on the forehead, and held her in his arms, Li Danruo lay in Jiang Yanming's arms, silent for a long time, Jiang Yanming gently brushed Li Danruo's cheek, almost to her ear, and asked in a low voice: "Mama Shen has already set off?" ”

"Not yet, I said to the outside that I was going back to my hometown to care for the elderly, but I can't be in a hurry, I have already set off on an auspicious day, I set off on the 16th, I reported a death on the way, and then turned to the south, alas!" Li Danruo stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around Jiang Yanming's waist, and sighed sadly: "I hope I can't use it." ”

"Definitely not needed, don't think about it." Jiang Yanming lowered his head and kissed Li Danruo, and comforted him gently, Li Danruo circled him and didn't speak, she knew that he forgave her, and she didn't want to use it, when she thought of the little person who was happy every day and only knew how to smile softly, he had no parents...... Her heart is like a knife, and her child is entrusted to fake death to escape Mama Shen, and she can't rest assured.

"Well, I don't want to, the eldest uncle will go to Zou Mansion tomorrow?" Li Danruo changed the topic a little bluntly, she didn't want to think about this terrible thing, Jiang Yanming nodded and said: "The eldest uncle is kind, and Ding Wei had a little friendship with Prince Zou before he was worried. Li Danruo answered softly, didn't ask any more questions, and the two sat in each other's arms for a long time before getting up and going into the house to rest.

In the rich and dazzling palace, the layers of curtains are hanging low, Zou Hou is crooked and soft on the couch, there are several yellow silk cushions of different sizes behind the back, and the waist is covered with a bright yellow dragon and phoenix Chengxiang thin quilt, the thin face is pale and bloodless, and even the lips have faded almost bloodless, because of the thinness, it looks extraordinarily large and bright, and the eyes are staring at the female envoy holding the pile of black and faintly purple pieces of Ejiao in her hand, staring at it for a long time, Zou Hou raised her finger and signaled the female envoy to step back, then she turned her head and looked at the henchwoman who stood up in front of the couch with her hands down, gritted her teeth and asked, "What else did she say?" ”

"Back to the saint, don't say anything, just say that this is the best aged Ejiao, and present it to the saint for body replenishment." The female officer cautiously bowed down and replied, Zou Hou closed her eyes, and the snow-white fingers on the brocade quilt clutched the quilt and slowly loosened it, the female officer was shocked and watched Zou Hou's ten fingers overflowing with anger and clenched and loosened, loosened and clenched, Zou Hou simply closed her eyes and adjusted her already somewhat unstable breath, who leaked her condition? Who is so bold?

"How did she know I was going to use ejiao, and did she ask if she had any?" After a while, Empress Zou asked in a vain voice full of coldness, and the female official bowed down and said: "Back to the saint, the slave maid did not follow the order, and did not dare to ask directly, but only told Mrs. Hong Yizhong that the saint has always disliked these things, and I don't know if I want to eat them. ”

Empress Zou's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness: "It's right to eat at this time, she's sure!" Zou Hou was in a hurry, and couldn't stop coughing a few times, the female officer hurriedly poured a cup of hot water and brought it over, Zou Hou waved his hand irritably: "Ah Tang, tell me, who leaked the letter to Hong Yizhong?" ”

"The slave and maid can't say it well," Ah Tang replied cautiously: "However, the slave and maid think that it must not be from our palace, first, it is not easy for people in our palace to get in and out, and second, do not hide from the saint and say that these people, slaves and maids can be trusted." ”

"Well, I can also trust it, except for the waiting people in this palace, it will have to be too hospital." Empress Zou said in a calm voice: "You said that Imperial Doctor Hu wants to marry the Hong family?" ”

"Back to the saint, the slave maid heard Guo Shu talk about it yesterday, Guo Shu and the slave maid gossiped, saying that when the third lady of the Hu Taiyi family and the fourth son of Hong Yizhong's cousin got along and inserted the hairpin, they had to break the money and send the backup gift to the Hu Mansion." Ah Tang replied cautiously, Zou Hou's eyes narrowed a little, his eyes looked at the roof caisson fiercely, and after a while, he suddenly sneered lightly: "Hu Ji is dizzy!" Go, pass on my will, transfer Hu Jishen to serve in the Northwest Army, and set off immediately!"

Ah Tang was startled, and after a moment of confusion, he said carefully: "Sage, Dr. Hu is good at gynecology, and the sage can't leave him when he is sick, or ......" Ah Tang was halfway through his words, and then he was swept back by Zou Hou's very strong gaze, only swept Ah Tang subconsciously retreated half a step, and bent his knees respectfully agreed: "Yes!" With that, Ah Tang withdrew from the hall, went to the door and called the waiter to come over and pass the word, and then returned to the couch lightly.

Zou Houbai leaned on the pillow like a piece of paper, closed his eyes as if he was asleep and was silent for a long time, before he suddenly asked in a low voice: "The surname Yao has not been found yet?" ”

"Back to the saints, not yet." The female officer held her breath and whispered back, Empress Zou opened her eyes, looked at Ah Tang with annoyance, gasped for a while, and leaned back again, her voice was not ruthless, revealing a thick weakness, as if talking to herself, and whispered: "Ah Tang, you say, is it me...... Didn't they all say that the surname Yao was a god operator, did he figure out something, so he ran away? Do you think I can ......?"

"The saint must be good, he must be good, aren't you much better these days than the previous days? Sage, don't think about it, who knows what the surname Yao is for, so the charlatan can't be trusted...... The saint must be good, and he will be fine in a few days, and there is a brother. The female officer hurriedly comforted and explained, Zou Hou closed her eyes, leaned on the pillow, as if she was asleep, and only opened her eyes and gritted her teeth after a while: "You are right, I have a son, I have a son, I can't die, I die, he can't live!"

Ah Tang looked at Empress Zou timidly, but didn't dare to answer, Empress Zou let out a long breath, leaned back and was silent for a long time, and suddenly laughed softly, like sadness and self-mockery: "I heard that Zou Mansion feasts every day? Ha, ha, Ah Tang, you see, how pitiful your girl is, such a father and brother, such a fool, no wonder the emperor passed the throne to the official family, saying that relatives are worry-free, such a fool, what are the worries? Poor brother......" Empress Zou smiled sadly, and her voice gradually became inaudible: "Such a father and brother, such a husband, are all bastards." ”

Ah Tang's face turned pale when he heard this, and he didn't dare to come out.

Li Danruo took the fat red, passed through the back corner door and entered the Jiang house, just turned into the moon gate next to the main house, and was going to the backyard to go to Doulu, Doulu saw that it was Li Danruo, and hurriedly bent his knees and said: "Grandma is here, and my aunt and grandmother have just come, and I am losing my temper at this time." ”

"What's going on?" Li Danruo stopped and asked, Doulu pursed his mouth and said: "It's not for the sake of the Seventh Lady's family, the eldest aunt and grandmother told me another one, it's still not good, the eldest aunt and grandmother are losing their temper." Li Danruo said 'oh', let Doulu go, motioned her to be busy, and stopped under the moon gate for a moment before going to the main house.

Li Danruo motioned to Fat Hong to guard the door, lifted the curtain and entered the main house, and heard the eldest aunt Jiang Yanhu angrily reprimanded: "...... The Jiang family is not as good as before, I have told you hundreds of times? Why can't you listen? Tell me, from top to bottom in the family, which one treats you poorly? Look at your ......"

"The fifth sister is here." Jiang Yanshu sat sideways on the edge of the kang and saw Li Danruo coming in, and hurriedly got up to greet him, Jiang Yanhu swallowed the words behind him, looked at Li Danruo and greeted first: "The fifth sister is just right, look at her!" Jiang Yanhu nodded with his wrong teeth, and he was full of awkwardness and disobedience to the seventh lady Jiang Yanfeng, Mrs. Cheng was crooked, her face was full of helplessness and sadness, she bowed slightly and motioned for Li Danruo to sit, looked at the seventh lady Jiang Yanfeng sighed, and swallowed back the words to her mouth.

"I've told her about five or six families before and after, she either hates this or that, but you tell me, what do you want to marry?" Before Jiang Yanhu's breath could settle down, Jiang Yanfeng twisted his head, looked back at Jiang Yanhu and shouted, "What kind of people are they?" What's the use of a hundred households? I know you dislike me and bully me for being a fatherless and motherless orphan! I know! No one is a fool! I'm an orphan, and I can't be bullied by you!"

"You!" Jiang Yanhu pointed at Jiang Yanfeng and couldn't speak, Jiang Yanshu hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "If you have something to say, how can you talk like this?" Jiang Yanshu turned his head to look at Jiang Yanfeng and said lightly, Jiang Yanfeng burst into tears and shouted, "Why can't I say that?" If you can do it, I can't say it? Don't be stupid, whoever bullies me, I'm like a mirror in my heart!" As he spoke, Jiang Yanfeng shook off Jiang Yanshu vigorously, turned around and ran out crying.
