Chapter Forty-Eight: A Fierce Medicine
Fang Rui changed into a peach-colored dress today, with a white cloak on the outside, and a set of gemstone heads of the same color as the clothes on her head, and the whole person looked bright and moving, dignified and atmospheric.
She sat in the flower hall and looked around, but this room looked very ordinary, why did the prince like to run here?
When she heard the sound, she immediately got up and turned her head to salute, but she only heard Ji Wuhuan come out of the room with an angry face, and left with a step.
"Lord Wang......" Fang Rui wanted to catch up, but Shen Qing also came out, and her face was also not good-looking.
"Princess, this is ...... princess" Fang Rui was a little gloating in her heart, she must have failed to serve well, so she made the prince angry. But it's okay, now that the prince has tasted the taste of women, he will definitely not even enter their doors in the future.
Shen Qing looked at the bruises on her wrists, remembering Fang Cai, she wanted to ask about the specific situation of the tenth princess and Xuanyuan Li that day, and there was no news about the missing palace grandmother, she was also worried that something bad would happen, but she didn't know which string he touched, which made him angry, and he didn't say why. Could it be Xuanyuan Li? It's impossible, I and him haven't reached the point where we will be jealous.
"It's fine." She didn't want to think about it if she didn't understand, so she restrained the emotions on her face and smiled.
Mama Yang came over with breakfast and reminded, "Princess, I will go to greet the old lady in a while." ”
"Hmm." Shen Qing bowed lightly, and asked again, "Auntie, have you ever eaten it?" ”
Fang Rui was originally coming for Ji Wuhuan, but now that he left angrily, he couldn't wait to catch up and comfort him immediately, so he nodded hurriedly: "Since the princess still has something to do, then the concubine will not bother." With that, he took the people and left straight away.
After she left, Mama Yang cautiously reminded again: "Princess, the eldest lady has never given birth to a son to the eldest master, she has been uncomfortable for so many years, and she has been constrained everywhere, and now that her aunt has given birth to a son, her life is even more sad......"
Shen Qingwaner: "I understand what Mama means, and I know what to do next." "She really needs Ji Wuhuan's help to save her life in this mansion at present, and she also needs his power to avoid Xuanyuanli's minions, even so, it is okay to make him happy, but her heart will never be handed over, and it is impossible to keep the child.
She glanced at the musk sachet that hung on her waist again, and silently finished her breakfast, and went to the old lady to say goodbye.
If it was ordinary, the old lady would definitely make it difficult, but today it was good, only let her ask her to go back after asking her outside. Shen Qing didn't want to stay longer, so she walked back with Mama Yang, thinking about how to transfer Xia Rao and Su Qiu to her side, otherwise there would be no one around, which would be too inconvenient.
was walking, and suddenly heard the woman's coquettish voice, with Shen Qing's intuition, she directly pulled Mama Yang to hide on the rockery on the side.
"Where did the third prince say, you are the younger brother of the prince, how can you be a concubine." The woman said shyly.
"Lan'er, then I'll work hard for you." The man chuckled under his breath.
When the woman heard this, she was shy again, and she heard a little coquettish panting during the period, and then saw the woman push the person away: "Okay, it's not early, I heard that the prince has been in the same room with the princess yesterday, what do you say today, you can't ask the other concubines to hook the prince away......"
"Little goblin, you know the prince, when did you think about me?" The man feigned anger.
The woman smiled again: "Could it be that the concubine doesn't want the prince, and the third prince can still ask for the concubine?" ”
The man chuckled helplessly: "Lan'er, you are the person given to Ji Wuhuan by the queen, how can I ask for it." ”
"Negative man." The woman didn't seem to mind, but said: "You can rest assured about this matter, I will do it for you, left and right, one or two women in the back house have died, and it doesn't matter." That Nizi refuses to obey you, and she can't get the blue eyes of the prince, but it's a hundred times dead, and then push it back to the princess who is ruthless everywhere......"
"It's still my Lan'er who is the smartest."
The two had another sweet talk before leaving.
After they left, Mama Yang was so angry that her face turned blue: "They actually do such immoral things in broad daylight, and they still want to harm people and frame them!" ”
"Can you remember that voice?" Shen Qing narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile.
Mama Yang nodded: "What is the princess going to do?" ”
Shen Qingwaner: "I originally planned to give the eldest lady another dose of small medicine, but now it seems that the small medicine is about to become a fierce medicine." ”
The eldest lady returned to the room at this time, and Yuan Shuang had been waiting for a long time.
"Mother, you have to save your daughter, your daughter must not marry the eldest prince!" Yuanshuang gritted her teeth, the royal wife and concubine, before the marriage, there will be a grandmother to check the chastity, if the family affair is decided, her reputation will be ruined, this is still a big crime of bullying the king.
The eldest lady thought about handing over the power of the family, and had a headache, seeing her crying like this again, she only sighed: "Shuang'er, although the eldest prince is sick all the year round, but after all, he is still the son of the heavenly family, you are also the eldest princess when you marry in the past, the scenery is immeasurable, and the glory and wealth are also inexhaustible, so you don't have to quarrel anymore." ”
"But......" Yuanshuang was a little embarrassed, and sent all the people in the room out, before kneeling in front of the eldest lady: "Mother, if my daughter marries, I'm afraid there will be only one way to die." ”
The eldest lady was puzzled: "Are you really dead and not marrying the eldest prince?" ”
Yuan Shuang shook his head; "It's not that my daughter dies and doesn't marry, it's really ......" Yuanshuang hesitated several times, but thinking about the consequences, she still opened her mouth: "Really, my daughter and Xuanyuan Proton have the reality of husband and wife......"
Before she finished speaking, the eldest lady slapped her hard, knocking her to the ground, and then pointed at her tremblingly: "You...... How can you do such a shameless thing! How did Niang Pingsu teach you, your "Women's Training" has been read into the dog's belly! ”
Yuan Shuang covered her face and cried: "My daughter doesn't want to, I can't blame my daughter, if I want to blame, I blame the princess, I suddenly mentioned the proton in front of my grandmother, forcing my daughter to let the proton give me an explanation, so I ......"
"You're confused!" The eldest lady was so angry that her head was dizzy, and she only felt that there was no hope at once.
"Mother, you have to save your daughter. If you really marry the eldest prince, it will be a crime of deception! ”
Yuanshuang cried, but how could the eldest lady not know the stakes?
"But if you tell your grandmother the truth, your grandmother will definitely drag you to the sinking pond." The eldest lady thought of the old lady and gritted her teeth, but when she looked at her only daughter, she was unwilling. Seeing that the aunt who gave birth to a son has already arrived at her door, if Yuanshuang makes another mistake, then she will not only lose her face, but her mother's family will also be poked in the backbone with her.
"Xuanyuan Proton, did he say when he would come to propose?" The eldest lady said, if Xuanyuan Li personally came to the door to propose marriage, it would be a quarrel with the old lady, and she would also marry Yuan Shuang, I heard that the Nanzhao delegation was coming, and when Yuan Shuang came with her, she would also be the princess.
Yuanshuang's face turned pale, and she sent a letter to Xuanyuan, but until now, he has not responded.
Seeing that she was silent, the eldest lady only felt a pain in her head again: "He doesn't admit it?" ”
"My daughter doesn't know, but after so many years, he has kept saying that he will definitely marry me, and he won't deny it at this time, mother, something must have happened to him......" Yuanshuang couldn't help crying.
The eldest lady looked at her like this, knowing that Xuanyuan was out of luck nine times out of ten, so she only covered her head, as if she only had one breath left, and said weakly: "Don't tell others about this matter first, my mother will go to Xuanyuan Li, if it doesn't work......" The eldest lady paused: "If it doesn't work, then think of another idea." ”
"Yes." Yuan Shuang saw that someone was in charge, and the stone in his heart seemed to be put down, and he nodded again and again, then turned his head and withdrew.
But after leaving, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she put all the anger that Xuanyuan Li didn't respond to on Shen Qing, if she didn't have to tell her grandmother what Xuanyuan Li was, she wouldn't be so eager to give him the first time.
Thinking of this, I heard Forsythia talk about Ji Wuhuan having sex with her last night, and when she saw that they were proud, she was even more angry.
"Are you sure you delivered the letter to Proton Mansion?" Yuan Shuang asked.
Forsythia nodded hurriedly: "The slaves and maids have been sent to the second gate." ”
When Yuan Shuang heard this, he was about to step back to his yard, but he happened to see the third son of the Sumu Mansion who was coming back from outside, that is, Yuan Xiujie, the son of the second room, and Ji Wuhuan's brother-in-law. It's just that after the death of the second lady, the second master also lingered on the sickbed all the year round and did not continue the string, and the person who has been serving him is his biological mother Feng Xiujie.
The Feng family is sleek, and the relationship in the courtyard is very well managed, so the third son of this concubine, Yuan Xiujie, is in the solemn mansion, and the treatment is almost the same as that of the concubine, if it weren't for the old lady who has always looked down on the concubine, his biological mother is afraid that she will be able to correct it.
"Yuan Xiujie?" Yuan Shuang called.
When Yuan Xiujie heard her voice, he remembered the recent incident, but he greeted her with a smile and greeted her: "Big sister." ”
Yuan Shuang frowned when she heard what he said. Yuan Xiujie is the third among the grandchildren, but she is the eldest granddaughter of the house, although she is the fourth among the brothers and sisters, everyone calls her the eldest miss, and no one has ever called the fourth miss.
Thinking of his purpose, Yuan Shuang didn't argue with him, but said, "You went outside to spend all day drinking again?" ”
"Big sister, where are you talking about, I usually go to school seriously, and I happen to be idle today, so I'm going around the house." Yuan Xiujie said without blinking, it can be seen that he has long been accustomed to lying.
Yuan Shuang sniffed the smell of wine coming from him, and the corners of his mouth hooked: "I don't care where you go, but if I tell my grandmother, Aunt Feng will not be punished, and you won't want to be a fox and a tiger in the picture again......"
"Don't mind...... Miss, I didn't offend you. Yuan Xiujie's slender eyes were busy turning. His appearance is not similar to Ji Wuhuan, but he inherited a pair of slender eyes that everyone in the Sumu Mansion has, and he also had a Chinese face with Aunt Feng, which looks even more thief-eyed, and Ji Wuhuan is simply born an underground, for which many people have laughed at him.
Hearing this, Yuan Shuang chuckled: "You came back this time, have you seen your sister-in-law?" ”
"Heard of the fragrance of the country?" Yuan Xiujie didn't think about going, but when he thought of Ji Wuhuan, he didn't have any thoughts.
"Not only is it the beauty of the country, it is simply a country and a city." After Yuan Shuang finished speaking, he also said: "Liu Qing, the son-in-law of the Liu Mansion, is like that because of her." ”
As soon as Yuan Shuang finished speaking, Yuan Xiujie knew what she had in mind.
"Miss wants me to do something for you?"
"What do I need your help with?" Yuan Shuang saw that he was poked, and snorted coldly.
Yuan Xiujie stared at Forsythia, who looked flat but had a well-developed body behind her, and laughed: "I've heard about everything outside, Miss, if there's anything you need me to do for you, just say that I will definitely help you if I can do it." As long as you turn around and say a few more kind words in front of your eldest uncle, you can find a fat shortage for me. ”
"Well said." Yuan Shuang saw that the goal was achieved, the corners of his mouth were raised high, looking at his dripping eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted: "Look at you, Cheng Ri knows that a pair of eyes are staring at the humble Yahuan." With that, he turned around and left.
Yuan Xiujie looked at her back and sneered coldly: "What kind of chaste martyr are you pretending." After that, he also brushed his sleeves away, but for the sister-in-law she mentioned, he really had a little bit of a mind to take a look.
There is a conversation here with each mind, and Forsythia remembers it in his heart.
She is a thoughtful person, and she is not a servant, and it didn't take long for Shen Qing to hear her words.
Mama Yang stood on the side, looking at Shen Qing who was holding the booklet and squinting at it, her face was slightly red: "Princess, what to do with forsythia?" ”
"Don't you let her do things tonight, and see how she does tonight, you can reward her with two taels of silver." Shen Qing said lightly, holding the villain book in his hand more and more energetic.
Mama Yang responded and hurriedly went out. When he was at the door, he saw the little bean sprouts with a red face and tea, and chuckled: "You go in later, the princesses will not blame, you are a girl who has not left the cabinet, it is better not to look at this." ”
Little Bean Sprouts nodded with a red face, and pointed to the asters hanging in the courtyard with Mama Yang, Mama Yang understood: "She found this book for the princess?" ”
The little bean sprouts bowed, Mama Yang looked at Ziyuan, who seemed to have made a meritorious contribution to herself with her chin raised, and did not say anything, since the princess likes it, let her be, she has the idea of pleasing the prince, it is better than treating him indifferently.
Forsythia won the reward, and went back happily, as soon as she remembered that Yuanshuang slapped her twice, and said everywhere that she was a lowly girl, she hated it in her heart.
When Mama Yang saw her leaving, her face sank, and she turned around and was about to enter the house, when she heard a laugh coming from behind her: "This is the princess's personal grandmother?" ”
Mama Yang turned her head to look at her, dressed in a purple gown, with an open neckline, revealing her white collarbones, painted with heavy makeup, and looking like a dusty woman, but she could hear her voice, isn't it the voice I heard in the rockery today.
"You are ......" Ji Wuhuan has a basket of concubines, and she rarely comes here to get the jade courtyard, so she can't recognize it all.
"You call me Aunt Lan, the last time the sisters came together, I guess Mama didn't remember me." Aunt Lan smiled lightly, looking coquettish, with a shallow pear vortex at the corner of her mouth, she looked really good-looking, but there were many good-looking people, and Ji Wuhuan's concubines were as beautiful as flowers.
Mama Yang is as good as a stream, and the princess is thinking about how to find this Aunt Lan, but she sent it to the door by herself.
"Aunt Lan wants to see the princess?" Mama Yang asked with a smile.
Aunt Lan turned her head and took a small square box from Yahuan's hand, and said with a smile: "This is some of the handkerchiefs I embroidered myself, and they are all made of the best materials, I hope the princess will like it." ”
Mama Yang looked at the box, thinking about what she said before, and smiled lightly to the side: "You are in the flower hall later, and the slave will go to inform the princess." ”
"Okay." Aunt Lan only thought that she was in control, and said with a faint smile.
Mama Yang walked away, and Aunt Lan took a closer look at the jade courtyard. The last time I came over, Fang Rui took advantage of the limelight, and now I have the opportunity to take a closer look, but the courtyard where they live is about the same size, and it is not particularly exquisite......
Thinking of this, Aunt Lan's eyes were a little more contemptuous.
When Shen Qing came out, he deliberately tidied up his appearance. Playing with women is not as good as holding a knife and a sword, and being able to go straight to each other has to pay attention to decency.
Aunt Lan was waiting in the flower hall, but when she saw Shen Qing, she was surprised.
The last time I saw her, she had a scar on her face, her face was pale, her body was thin, and she could only see it with a pair of eyes, but now, the scar on her face has disappeared, and the bangs on her forehead have been combed, revealing the bright red cinnabar on her eyebrows, coupled with a red wide-sleeved robe, the whole person looks not only graceful and noble, but also makes people feel glamorous, but it is more elegant, and there is no tackiness.
"My aunt came over suddenly, so I had to prepare tea hastily, and try it." Shen Qing sat down with a smile, did not deliberately exert pressure, nor did he mean to please the intimacy, it was light and light, but people did not dare to underestimate it.
Aunt Lan gathered her thoughts, got up with a smile and saluted, and gave the veil again.
Shen Qing looked at the box handed over, looked at the delicate little lock, and asked with a smile: "Auntie, I'm afraid I forgot to bring the key on this lock?" ”
When Aunt Lan saw her ask, her eyebrows jumped, and she said with a smile: "I really forgot this." With that, he took the key from the hand of the girl ring behind him and presented it.
Shen Qing saw that she had been staring at the key, the corners of her mouth raised, but she didn't open the box, but said, "Thank you aunt for your kindness." ”
Aunt Lan breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the side, and said, "The concubine was supposed to come to greet her last night, but she was worried about disturbing the princess, so she came over now, and I hope the princess won't mind." ”
"It doesn't matter, everyone is sisters, and those who serve the prince together don't have to be too rigid about such subsections. That's right......" Shen Qing said again: "I heard that Aunt Lan was sent to the mansion by the queen's mother, so Aunt Lan must be very familiar with the palace?" ”
Aunt Lan's hand on her lap tightened, and she barely squeezed out a smile: "Who is the princess talking nonsense, where is the concubine sent by the queen, but she just took the blessing of the mother, and she broke her foot during the palace banquet, and it happened that the prince came to help, so the princess gave the concubine body to serve the prince." ”
When Shen Qing saw her, her face was cramped when she said this, as if she was very afraid of being asked, could there be anything strange in it?
Shen Qing talked to her for a while, but this aunt was probing her truth and truth, until news came from outside, saying that something had happened to her aunt, and her inquiry stopped.
Shen Qing's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, she didn't expect this Aunt Lan's speed to be so fast.
"Which aunt is it?" Shen Qing asked.
"It's Aunt Bai Zhi." The subordinates trembled, not because an aunt died in the courtyard, but because this aunt was the most liked by Ji Wuhuan in ordinary times, and other aunts didn't even have a chance to talk to Ji Wuhuan, only this aunt who seemed to be silent, but she could get his blue eyes, and repeatedly invited her to the study to serve the pen and ink.
Mama Yang also told her about Aunt Bai Zhi, Shen Qing got up, looked at Aunt Lan who was pretending to be stunned, and said, "Immediately block the scene, as long as the people who have been to Aunt Bai Zhi's courtyard this morning, all of them will be watched, and no one will want to leave." ”
"Yes!"
"Princess......" Aunt Lan choked up and said: "The concubine also talked to Aunt Bai Zhi this morning, she is the most generous and gentle on weekdays, why did she suddenly ......" Before she finished speaking, she hid her face and cried bitterly.
Shen Qing glanced at Mama Yang, Mama Yang understood, hung her head and stayed, and after Shen Qing left, she took the wooden box sent by Aunt Fang Cailan and walked out.
When Shen Qing arrived at the house where Bai Zhi lived, the things inside were neat, there was no trace of a fight, and the tea cups were all clean, without a drop of water, thinking that they had already been treated.
"What about people?"
"Back to the princess, I'm afraid of staining your eyes, the slave has already asked someone to carry it out."
The person who talked back and forth was a mother-in-law about fifty years old, clean and high-quality, with no messy hair, just high cheekbones, which could hardly hide the mean image.
"Are you serving by Aunt Bai Zhi's side?" Shen Qing asked lightly, in this back house, each aunt is divided into a subordinate, and some of them have good conditions, and they will also bring three or five by themselves, such as Fang Rui, but this Bai Zhi, I heard that she was only born as a slave and maid, and her temperament is weak, and there is such a subordinate serving on the side, I am afraid that she has suffered a lot.
"Yes." The mother-in-law replied calmly, but before she finished speaking, she heard Shen Qing say coldly: "Tie me up." ”
The mother-in-law was stunned: "Princess, why is this?" You can't mess with lynching ......"
Shen Qing stared at her coldly: "Who gave you the courage to talk to this concubine like this?" Could it be that you are used to bullying Bai Zhi, thinking that this concubine is also something you can handle? ”
After Shen Qing finished speaking, the Ziyuan she specially brought out stepped forward and slapped her twice, causing blood to burst from the corners of her mouth, and sarcastically said: "If you commit the following crimes, you can be killed." ”
The mother-in-law was beaten, and then she saw Shen Qing and said: "Without the order of this concubine, you disposed of your aunt's body without authorization, what do you want to hide, the fact that you killed Bai Zhi?" ”
As soon as Shen Qing asked, the mother-in-law puffed out her eyes: "The slave maid really just doesn't want the corpse to stain the princess's eyes." She originally just wanted to please the new princess, but she didn't get the fart right.
"What's your attitude!" Ziyuan saw that Shen Qing didn't say anything, so he was full of strength.
After a few more slaps, the mother-in-law was beaten and her face was swollen like a steamed bun, but Aunt Lan, who came with her, showed ridicule in her eyes.
I thought that Shen Qing would not take too much trouble and close the case, after all, it was just an aunt, it was nothing. I didn't think about it, but she asked again: "Since you said that it wasn't you, then Concubine Ben asked you, who came here this morning, what did you do, who do you think is the most suspicious, why?" ”
The mother-in-law looked at Shen Qing as a scapegoat, where did she dare to hide it, and she was going to say it when she opened her mouth.
Seeing this, Aunt Lan hurriedly stepped forward: "Princess, you ask her, if she can't keep it, she will wronged people, depending on the concubine's body, it is better to ask someone from the government to investigate, after all, Bai Zhi is the prince's favorite concubine, so she died in vain, and the prince ......will investigate it."
When Shen Qing heard this, he nodded solemnly: "Aunt Lan is reasonable. ”
When the mother-in-law saw this, she panicked: "Aunt Lan, slave maid ......"
"Shut up, you are used to stepping on low and praising high, how much Sister Bai Zhi has been blinded and bullied by you, don't think I don't know, let me tell you, this Diao slave, when you meet the princess who knows everything today, don't have a trace of luck. If you dare to throw the body of your master out without permission, I think it's okay to kill you now. Aunt Lan looked indignant, and the people next to her thought that this mother-in-law was the culprit.
Shen Qing quietly watched this good show, and her eyes lit up slightly. No wonder Ji Wuhuan doesn't like these women, they look as beautiful as flowers, but they are all cannibal flowers.
"Then gag this woman first, tie it up and throw it to the firewood room, and wait for the people from the government to come and make a decision." Shen Qing said.
Aunt Lan opened her mouth, but saw Shen Qing staring at her, and she was afraid that she would say too much, so she didn't say more, but looking at the situation, it was foolproof, her plan was absolutely perfect.
If Shen Qing is really a princess of Dayan who has no experience in the world, I am afraid that she will really fall into this set, but what she doesn't know is that Shen Qing is the fox with the most eyes in it.
Ziyuan was left behind, looking at the scene and the woman, she was tired of excuses, so she went back to rest, waiting for the show to begin.
When I came back, Mama Yang hadn't arrived yet, and the little bean sprouts were guarding the door with a strange look.
Seeing this, Shen Qing said, "The prince is here?" ”
The little bean sprouts shook his head and made a gesture, and then Shen Qing frowned: "Shouldn't he be on the mountain?" ”
Shen Qing thought as he walked inside, and when he arrived at the flower hall, he saw a transparent Ji Rui with an almost white face.
"You've got all the blood!" Shen Qing was surprised, when he heard it, he thought that a slippery person like Ji Rui would definitely not really let his own blood, but now it seems that ......
Ji Rui glanced at her coldly: "You still care about me?" ”
Shen Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, went back to the room, and took out a bottle of medicine after a while: "Here you go." It's a reward for helping me a few times. ”
Ji Rui glanced at it lightly and said indifferently: "No need." ”
Shen Qing looked at his alienated appearance, but he didn't care, poured himself a cup of tea, and sent everyone out: "The Nine Emperor Princes came here this time to let me know that you are angry, right?" ”
"You ——!" Ji Rui looked at her with a non-salty attitude, and his eyes lit up: "I really want to break your neck!" ”
"No, after all, if it's broken, there will be no one to play with you. As soon as the Nanzhao mission arrives, we can still play a bigger ticket, are you interested? Shen Qing asked with a smile.
Ji Rui looked at her with a smile on her face, and the anger in her heart disappeared suddenly, and she shook her head helplessly: "I really want to take you back now." ”
"No, I'm the prince's woman now, I love him deeply, he loves me deeply." Shen Qing said jokingly, casually fiddling with the tea in the cup.
Ji Rui didn't talk to her, but said what he meant: "I'm here to tell you, when you enter the palace in a few days, be careful." I can't find Wuhuan, so I can only come and tell you. ”
Shen Qing remembered the queen's invitation and said, "How can you be careful?" ”
Ji Rui glanced at her lightly, poured himself a cup of tea, and slowly held it in her style: "The queen has a sick and weak prince, so there are no other heirs. So for so many years, she has been trying her best to win over and hold a lot of princesses and princesses, so as to ensure that once the eldest prince fails, she has other available people in her hands. This time, the four princes, who were also pacifying civil strife outside, are coming back. He is like me, since his mother died early and was raised under the name of the queen, but for so many years, his military exploits and military power are far inferior to Wuhuan. ”
"Your Majesty, is this going to be a prince?" Shen Qing remembered that the queen was in a hurry to marry the eldest prince, and forcibly took his blood regardless of Ji Rui's wishes, and now even the four princes who were away all the year round have returned, and the queen is still thinking about attacking Ji Wuhuan, so the only thing that can cause her to make such a big move is the matter of Lichu.
Ji Rui looked at Shen Qing in surprise, and immediately laughed: "I knew you were so smart." ”
Shen Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, and did not say much.
"This time when I entered the palace, the most important thing was that the queen wanted the military power in Wuhuan's hands." Ji Rui took a sip of tea lightly before saying.
"She wants the prince to support the four princes?" Shen Qing said again.
Ji Rui bowed his head, and his face was a little solemn.
When Shen Qing saw him like this, she knew that they didn't belong to the Four Princes in their hearts, but she didn't want to get involved, her goal was only Xuanyuan Li, and it was already her limit to deal with the affairs of the inner house for Ji Wuhuan.
"I know, when the prince comes back, I will tell him."
"Hmm." Ji Rui seemed to be very uncomfortable, so he didn't stay long, got up to leave, but fell back to his seat with a dizziness.
Shen Qing looked at him, some memories in his mind were about to come out, but he still couldn't think of it, he just frowned, and pushed Fang Cai's jade bottle to him: "Bloody, no poison." ”
Ji Rui saw it, and after all, he still went to take two pills, and after a while, he felt a lot more comfortable, so he looked at Shen Qing in surprise: "I don't know, Dayan is still good at refining medicine?" ”
"It's not something from Dayan, it's something from Nanzhao, which was collected before." Shen Qing said lightly, seeing that the hour was not early, he got up: "It's not early, the Nine Emperors should go back early, stay for a long time, the rumors can kill me." ”
"You're sorry for your life." Ji Rui stood up, and a light flashed in his eyes.
Shen Qing ignored him and went back to the room, Ji Rui looked at her less and less in her eyes, but she was not very angry, and took the medicine bottle just now and went out.
He came on horseback, and he arrived here from Yunci'an, and he really couldn't stay long.
But after he rode the horse for a while, his body was really a little unbearable, and in the haze, he only knew that the horse seemed to have kicked something.
Zhang Xiaofang was dressed in the clothes of a handsome son, and her heart was still filled with the yearning for the capital that she had never been to, and the bunch of wild flowers she was dragging in her hand still exuded a faint fragrance, but her delicate chest was ruthlessly stepped on by the horse.
"Eight Lambs!" She gritted her teeth, got up, but only saw the scarlet man who was riding a fast horse away, and she had the heart to chase after her, but her heart hurt too much.
"It hurts the county lord to death." She bent down, but there was a light in front of her, and a jade plaque was lying on the soft grass. She stepped forward to pick up the jade plaque, looked at the word 'Rui' on it, took a deep breath, stared at the person in front of her with round eyes, and gritted her teeth: "Don't let your father and I see you again, kill the king of a thousand knives!" ”
As soon as she said this, two more horses came running on the official road, dressed in exotic clothes and with scimitars.
When they got closer, Zhang Xiaofang turned around sharply and hurriedly pasted the beard that had just fallen.
The two of them stopped so much, looked at her and asked, "This brother, have you ever seen a woman?" It's not tall, it's slightly chubby, and it's beautiful. ”
"I haven't seen it, I haven't seen it." Zhang Xiaofang turned her back and lowered her voice and waved her hand hurriedly.
The two of them looked at her white jade-like fingers, which didn't look like a man's hand at all. couldn't help but look at it: "Dare to ask Brother Tai, where are you from, where are you going?" ”
Zhang Xiaofang remembered the jade pendant she had just seen, and hurriedly took it out to show them: "My master has instructions, so it's inconvenient to talk to the two of you." ”
The two of them looked at the jade plaque and hurriedly bowed: "It turned out to be the people of the Nine Emperor Princes, we were presumptuous, we are the ...... of Nanzhao."
"Alright, let's go." Zhang Xiaofang said busily.
The two paused awkwardly, then did not doubt much, and drove away.
As soon as they left, Zhang Xiaofang looked at the jade plate in his hand, showed his big white teeth and sneered: "It turned out to be the Nine Emperors of the Great Wei Kingdom, you are dead......"
In the evening, Shen Qing prepared a meal as usual and waited for Ji Wuhuan to come over, but before Ji Wuhuan sat down, he heard Aunt Lan hurriedly running over and saying that Bai Zhi was dead.
When it comes to Bai Zhi, he remembers, the woman who rarely speaks and is elegant.
He couldn't help frowning: "When's it!" ”
Everyone saw his anger, and as soon as Shen Qing was about to speak, he heard Aunt Lan say, "Today is close to the first half of noon." ”
"Who's doing it?" Ji Wuhuan asked again.
"I don't know." Aunt Lan said busily, and couldn't help but choke and wipe the corners of her eyes: "After the people from the government came in the afternoon, they said that they wanted to conduct an autopsy, so they took Aunt Bai Zhi's body away, and now there is no result, and a mother-in-law is tied up in the firewood room, and I don't know what is happening now." ”
As soon as Aunt Lan finished speaking, someone hurriedly ran over and said that her mother-in-law was dead.
Shen Qing frowned slightly, Ziyuan could find the right time to start when she looked at her, she really infiltrated this back house.
But without waiting for Shen Qing to speak, Ji Wuhuan slapped the table and stared at Shen Qing coldly: "This is the back house you take care of for this king?" ”
Shen Qing frowned slightly, looking at him with a chill between his handsome brows, and said, "The prince never said that I would take care of the back house for you...... Their deal was that she checked the death of his biological mother for him, and she didn't say that she would help him take care of this, and she thought that she was already helping him take care of it, but his inner house was too complicated......
Without waiting for Shen Qing to say more, Ji Wuhuan had already frowned, and with a flick of his eyes, he swept to the sachet that she had forgotten to take off from her waist.
He raised his hand and pulled it over, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, and the familiar musky smell came.
Ji Wuhuan clenched his fists angrily, threw the sachet on the ground, and looked at her with a blue face: "Since you don't want to take care of this back house, then let someone else take care of it!" With that, he turned away indifferently, leaving only a room of cold wind.
Seeing Ji Wuhuan leaving, the little bean sprouts were so anxious.
Shen Qing just slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and said, "Has Mama Yang ever come back?" ”
Mama Yang had already arrived, but she didn't come over when she saw Ji Wuhuan getting angry.
"Princess, it's done."
When Shen Qing heard this, he bowed slightly: "Okay, then close the net tonight." ”
"Yes." Mama Yang looked at her worriedly, and then looked at the sachet on the ground, and finally asked: "Princess, what are you doing with the prince?" After all, he is your support for the rest of your life. ”
When Shen Qing heard this, he was stunned for a moment, relying on him for a lifetime? He also thinks like this, thinking that he is his only support, so is he like this?
Shen Qing smiled coldly, picked up the chopsticks, and slowly began to eat.
Ji Wuhuan stood outside the Langyu Courtyard, Aunt Lan looked at him and stopped moving forward, and her heart hung slightly: "Lord Wang, what's wrong?" ”
Ji Wuhuan's lips were tense and he didn't make a sound, but Yuan Ye understood his thoughts, looked back, and wondered: "The princess didn't follow." ”
Hearing this, Ji Wuhuan was even more cold, and he walked towards Bai Zhi's courtyard angrily.
Aunt Lan was speechless in surprise when she saw him react like this. He lost his temper at the princess so much, he thought that she would fall out of favor, and he never thought that he would come out, but he had to wait for her to catch up. Could it be true that as he saw on the face, he had a heart for this princess?
Aunt Lan didn't dare to think about it, she only prayed that the plan was foolproof, and when the people from the official mansion went to search the princess's room tomorrow, then everything would be conclusive.
In the middle of the night, the eldest lady had no intention of eating, the eldest lady had not come to her room for a long time, and stayed in her aunt's house all day long, and no one said that she was depressed in her heart, and the matter of Yuanshuang also made her extremely annoyed.
"Ma'am, are you resting?" A mother-in-law came over and asked.
She lay on the bed and asked weakly, "What's wrong?" ”
"The maid ring next to the eldest lady came, saying that she had something to report." Mother-in-law said.
When the eldest lady heard this, she sighed: "Let her come in and talk back." ”
After a short time, Forsythia came to the house, and when he entered the house, he saw where the charcoal brazier was, and he stood up and saluted.
When the eldest lady saw her like this, she only thought that she was afraid of the cold, so she did not think about it, nor did she see that when she was blessed, the white powder that shook from the cracks of her fingernails fell into the brazier, causing a puff of white smoke to rise from the brazier.
"Why are you here so late?" The eldest lady asked.
Forsythia got up and said: "It's Xuanyuan Proton, the eldest lady asked the slave to send the news, but there has been no response so far, and the rumors outside have spread fiercely, and the slave and maid are sad when they see the young lady, worried that she will do something stupid." ”
When the eldest lady heard this, she only closed her eyes tiredly: "Xuanyuan Proton, I will go over, you don't have to reveal a word about this, understand?" ”
"The slave understands." Forsythia answered.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, the eldest lady sent her out, and when she walked out of the door, she staggered without paying much attention. However, Fang was not sleepy yet, and now he felt tired.
The eldest lady saw that the mother-in-law was waiting outside to rest, and there were three candles left in the room, and the room was full of servants, so she was sleepy and fell asleep, but unfortunately in this sleep, a purple phantom kept appearing, and a mournful cry for help was like a sharp hook, pulling her brain, making her miserable.
Forsythia came out of the room, looked at the purple dress she had specially changed, patted the powder in her palm, and then checked the things that were originally in her sleeves, and saw that she had already taken advantage of the fact that she had just gone out, and stuffed it in the corner behind the door, and a pleasure of revenge made her raise the corners of her lips with satisfaction, and went back, and after a while, the mournful cry of the eldest lady came out.
