Chapter Ninety-Nine: Secret Message

The next day, Gan Jilu didn't put on makeup, her eyes were red and swollen, and she went to ask Mrs. Gan for peace.

It was because she had a high fever that she was allowed to go back to live in her Linxing Tower. It is convenient for Langzhong to diagnose and treat. But Mo Chuxue was still left in Yonghua Garden to accompany the half-dead Mo Yanqing and take care of her closely.

Wanfeng saw her so haggard, and her distressed tears fell straight down: "Second Miss, you have suffered." The slave maid boiled you a cup of ginseng soup. Drink it first. ”

Gan Jilu picked up the bowl and poured it down with a frown. "How's that going on with what I've got you to stare at?"

deliberately didn't take Wanfeng to Yonghua Garden, just to pay attention to Gan Peilin's movements. Sure enough, she was hooked.

"The eldest lady left the house yesterday and has not returned since." Wanfeng lowered her voice and said, "It was the bamboo language next to the old lady who sent her out." ”

"Hurry up and inform the daughter of the Ao family." Gan Jilu tidied up her face, and walked in with a solemn eyebrow: "I'll go see my grandmother." ”

"Yes." Wanfeng took the empty bowl and hurriedly retreated.

When Gan Peilin woke up again, it was already noon.

The scorching sun poured in through the window lattice, and she was sweating profusely.

Remembering last night's incident, she suddenly lifted the quilt and jumped off the bed, wearing a dress that did not belong to her.

"Miss, you're awake."

The servant heard the commotion, pushed the door open and came in. "Your clothes are dry, and the slave maid will change your clothes and make up for you."

"I'm sorry for you." Gan Peilin also didn't want to wear other people's clothes to go home, so as not to attract more criticism. At this time, Jiang Yu won't come back from the next court, right? After all, yesterday's events were a little bad, and I must feel embarrassed to face him. Thinking so, Gan Peilin couldn't help but lower his head.

"It's ......"

There was a broken pearl on the ground.

The servant thought she wanted it, so she bent down and picked it up and handed it to her.

Gan Peilin recognized at a glance that this was the beads on the pearl necklace given by his grandmother. But how can it be broken? I was curious, and my hand holding the beads was stained with some powder. I thought it was a powder of broken pearls, but there is a rough feeling of sand grains when twisted, and there is no delicate and soft pearl powder at all.

She put it in front of her nose vigilantly, sniffing and sniffing, but there was no smell.

"No." The servant stopped her from putting the powder in her mouth. "Miss, this is a delirious powder, colorless and tasteless."

"Medicine powder ......" Gan Peilin had actually guessed that this was the case. But when I confirmed it, I still felt uncomfortable in my heart.

"The master asked me to remind you not to eat what others give you again." The servant added respectfully.

What are you eating? Gan Peilin didn't think about it.

Coincidentally, the maid handed her a cup of tea to rinse her mouth, and she remembered the sweet mountain spring water in the bamboo bladder.

Gan Peilin stopped talking, and the maid carefully dressed her up.

Just after the makeup was done here, someone came over there to say, "Madame is here." ”

Madam? Gan Peilin paused for a moment. It was only when she saw Xue Baoyun that she came back to her senses. "Say hello to Mrs. Taiwei."

"Tsk!" Xue Baoyun looked at her from top to bottom and from bottom to top, and smiled from ear to ear: "You see, Yu'er just has vision." There is one girl in the Imperial City, and they are all compared to the demeanor of our eldest lady of Ganfu. ”

"Madame is wrong." Gan Peilin was very uncomfortable, as if she already had something with Jiang Yu.

"I'll take you home after lunch." Xue Baoyun's tone was also gentle.

"Don't bother......" Gan Peilin still felt uncomfortable with her.

"It's not troublesome, it's all ready." Xue Baoyun sighed: "If you are not here, I will be the only one to eat." Just stay with me. ”

She said so, and Gan Peilin couldn't refuse. After all, Xue Baoyun sent her home, and she would look better on the surface.

"Let's go, let's go to the flower hall for dinner." Xue Baoyun warmly held her hand and glanced at the bed. The bed was slightly wrinkled, but it was clean. This couldn't help but surprise her. It seems that Yu'er cares about her more than she imagined, and she is not far from half a point.

At this time, the atmosphere in Ao Mansion became extremely tense.

Ao Li took off the small bamboo tube from the magpie, and after reading the contents of the paper roll inside, the whole person was not good.

"Where's my brother?" Ao Li asked the servant Zisu beside her.

"Back to the eldest lady's words, the eldest young master and several young masters are talking in the study." Shiso replied truthfully.

Ao Li grabbed the note and went straight to the study.

"At the moment, there are a lot of things in Ganfu, and the emperor can't take care of King Shengqing for a while. But what we need to do on our side, we must be cautious and careful. Just wait for His Highness to return and arrange the next things smoothly. As soon as Ao Yu's words were said this, he heard the footsteps of someone hurrying over. Okay, that's it. ”

Ao Su opened the door and came out of it, just as Ao Li was about to push the door. "Big sister."

Ao Li looked at him and felt angry. "I don't dare to be your big sister. Are you afraid that your life will be too long? ”

Ao Min laughed and leaned over and quipped: "Big sister, this is not going well." Who made our Grand Governor angry again? ”

"I want you to talk more." Although Ao Li was not happy, when she heard the words "Mrs. Dadudu", she still couldn't help but feel a trace of sweetness in her heart.

"What's the matter?" Ao Yu frowned and asked.

"Come here." Ao Li grabbed Ao Xuan's front placket and dragged him into the study rudely.

"What are you guys doing here? Still not leaving? She yelled at the others.

Those talents are leaving with interest.

The door to the study was reopened.

"Big brother, look at this." Ao Li handed him the paper roll, and his eyes turned red.

Ao Yu took the paper scroll and quickly read the content on it, and his face couldn't help but be gloomy. "This is the daughter of the Gan Mansion. It's quite ambitious. ”

When he heard the words of Gan Fu's daughter, Ao Jue's heart was shocked.

His sharp reaction was captured by Ao Li, and his face suddenly sank. "Hmph, are you worried about her? I don't know what's going on, are you so worried about her? I'm your sister-in-law, why don't you care about me? Last time, how much did you participate in the matter of the prayer hermitage, it is better to simply say it in front of the big brother today. ”

Ao Xuan hurriedly shook his head and lowered: "Big sister misunderstood." ”

"Misunderstanding?" Ao Li smiled contemptuously: "Do you think I don't know about that little bit of fancy intestines?" However, no matter how much you think about people, it is in vain. ”

Ao Xuan obviously felt that something was wrong, his face sank slightly, and he didn't say anything.

"Why aren't you curious, what's going on with her?" Ao Li's face changed from gloomy to cold, from cold to hideous. During the whole process, she stared at Ao Sue: "Why are you so cowardly?" You like her, and you've repeatedly fought against me to protect her. But in the end, she doesn't care about you, and you don't even get a little favor from her, which is ridiculous. ”

"Big sister, if there is nothing else, I'll go first." Ao Xuan didn't want to hear her say these crazy things. I want to figure out what the hell is going on.

But Ao Li didn't give up on blocking his way: "Last night, the people of Gan Mansion sent her to the other courtyard of Jiang Mansion. In that courtyard, only the Metropolitan Governor lived alone. ”

"What did you say?" Ao thought he had misheard. "No matter how poor Ganfu is, it is impossible to use a daughter to buy peace."

"That's true." Ao Li looked at the staring eyes, and couldn't help but smile sneeringly: "She would rather be the concubine of the Grand Governor than your wife." You should die of this heart before it is too late. ”

Ao Yu spoke at the right time: "There are only two kinds of women in this world, and one can't be obtained. Since you can't get it, either you can fulfill her, or you can ...... Let her fulfill your original intention. Always be a woman you can't get, no one can think of. ”

In short, isn't that just to make her disappear forever!

Ao Jue listened very clearly, and his heart hurt one by one. He didn't say a word, and left the study.

"Cowardice." Ao Li gritted his teeth and scolded: "I don't even have this bit of blood, I don't know how the Ao family can have such a useless species." ”

"Alright." These words are really ugly, Ao Yu couldn't help frowning: "You are also a daughter, and you are about to become a wife." Pay attention to your speech in the future, don't let people hear the joke. ”

"I'm disgraced now, are you still afraid of this?" Ao Li's eyes turned red all of a sudden. "Big brother, you are my own brother. You've got to help me come up with ideas. The daughter of Nagan Mansion is a fox, she is entangled with the governor of the capital, and she will not give up easily. I haven't even passed the door, and I'm going to be insulted like this by her, and I'm really unwilling. ”

"Don't worry. Didn't our second brother go! A glimmer of light flashed in Ao Yu's eyes.

"What's the use of him going!" Ao Li said unwillingly: "Isn't it just that the daughter of the Ao family?" ”

"When things happen, you have to be calm. Even if he doesn't do anything, we can do something in his name. "Ao Jue's heart has always been more inclined to King Shengqing. Even against Jiang Yu, he was extremely defensive. If Ao Xuan can draw his sword for Gan Fu's daughter and Jiang Yu this time, then the rest of the matter can be carried out logically.

It's just that, Ao Li doesn't need to know. "Alright, you go back first. I'll take care of the rest. ”

Ao Li nodded earnestly: "Finally, the big brother is still facing me." ”

"Nature." Ao Yu patted her on the shoulder: "Do whatever you have to do." In a few days, when you marry Jiang Mansion and become the wife of the Grand Du, the real power will fall into your hands, even if Jiang Yu wants to take a concubine, you have to nod first. You have nothing to worry about. ”

"Yes." Ao Li's face softened slightly, but when she thought of Gan Peilin and Jiang Yu's lonely men and widows last night, it was difficult to suppress the hatred in her heart. "I'm not going to let that slut have a good time."

Looking at her departing back, Ao Yu tore up the paper roll in his hand. "Gan Fu's daughter, tsk, it's a pity......"

The ghost blows the lamp
