Chapter 205: Brother Chao'er is sick
Three days later, Shen Yue sent a large team of men and horses to escort Li Yingluo into Beijing in the name of a businessman.
Shen Xiu didn't go to see her off, the people sent by Shen Yue, she went to see her off again, it was too eye-catching.
The vassal king is not allowed to have dealings with the officials of the imperial court, even if the new champion is from Qingyang and has too many contacts, it is not a good thing.
"Don't worry, concubine, there are so many people on the road, Mrs. Tang will definitely be able to get to the capital safely." Yin'er said with a smile.
For no reason, Shen Xiu felt a little uneasy in his heart, and said, "If there is news from my brother, he must inform me in time." ”
Maybe it's really that she is too worried, and Mrs. Zhuangyuan is not good. Especially in the capital where the streets are full of powerful people, if Li Yingluo's old story of being a girl is picked up, it will definitely be enough to drink a pot.
And Li Yingluo is leaving, and she doesn't know when she will return.
She is such a good sister, if it is not possible to see each other again, it will be ten years later, and I will feel sad if I am happy for her.
"Yes, I will always keep an eye on the news in the capital." Yin'er said.
Shen Xiu nodded and ordered, "Take five hundred taels of silver and give it to Yu Yongzhao, and you will send it personally." ”
"Yes." Yin'er agreed, and asked casually: "Does the side concubine want him to buy anything?" ”
Yu Yongzhao belongs to the marriage, because he is an errand outsider, and his monthly salary is much higher than that of the maid and wife of the waiter.
Usually he runs errands outside, and he is often reimbursed, and Shen Xiu never asks. Basically, Yu Yongzhao will give it if he wants silver.
But suddenly, give him as much as five hundred taels, and that's mostly to let him buy something.
"You just give it to him." Shen Xiu said.
This is a reward for Yu Yongzhao, the report is timely, and the idea is not bad.
The errand is done, of course, you have to reward. Otherwise, it is not easy to get a subordinate like Yu Yongzhao.
It's not necessary to talk about feelings, it's good to talk about money, anyway, she is not short of money.
"Yes." Yin'er was curious, but she didn't dare to ask again.
After lunch, Yin'er went out to give Yu Yongzhao money, and Shen Xiu took a nap in the house.
I was sleeping and thinking, when I heard someone in my ear: "Side concubine, side concubine......"
Shen Xiu opened his eyes in a daze, only to see Linlang standing by the bed, looking anxious.
"What's the matter?" Shen Xiu asked, although he was still a little sleepy, he couldn't care about it at the moment.
If you wake up in the middle of your sleep, something must have happened. It probably won't be a good thing either.
"Manager Wang is here, and I have something to report." Linlang said, "Brother Chao, Brother Chao, it's not good." ”
Just now, the chief manager of the king hurriedly came over and said that there was an accident in the prince's mansion, and it was not good for Brother Chao'er.
She was still hesitant to wake up Shen Xiu, but it was also Manager Wang who said that this kind of major event was more important than a nap.
If Shen Xiu knew that she was delayed, she was afraid that she would be angry.
"Huh?" Shen Xiu was shocked, and immediately got up and said, "Call the chief manager to come in." ”
"Yes." Linlang responded, and hurriedly went out to pass on the people, but did not forget to let the little girls fetch water.
Shen Xiu just woke up from a nap, and she definitely had to wash her face.
The little girls stepped forward to wait for Shen Xiu to wash it, and Shen Xiu took the handkerchief and washed it in a hurry.
"The slave meets the concubine." Manager Wang knew that Shen Xiu was washing his face, so he saluted outside.
Shen Xiu said: "What's wrong with Brother Chao?" ”
Although children are prone to illness, and Brother Chao is extremely weak, he can let Manager Wang report it, but I am afraid that things will not be simple.
"As early as a few days ago, Brother Chao was sick." Manager Wang said, "Brother Chao'er is frail and often sick. But just now, when the doctor came to see Chao Ge'er, because the nurse was also unwell, he took the pulse by the way. found out that the nurse was drugged, and the doctor said that Brother Chao'er would get sick because of eating the nurse's milk. ”
Originally, it was common for children to get sick, and I didn't pay much attention to it. As a result, the doctor was shocked when he found such a result.
Although Brother Chao'er was raised in the Shizi Mansion, Cheng Yuanniang immediately issued a notice that someone dared to murder her son, and she wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly.
"How is Brother Chao now?" Shen Xiu asked.
Mr. Wang: "The doctor said that there is no big problem, and he has changed to a new nurse, and the doctor has also diagnosed the pulse." ”
Shen Xiu was relieved when she heard it, no matter how the women in the back house fight, the child is innocent. Said: "The doctor who diagnosed the pulse, what you said is so sure? ”
The doctors who can diagnose the pulse of the elder brother are all used by the royal palace.
Generally speaking, in such a major event as the murder of the prince, the doctor may not dare to say it directly, even if it is diagnosed.
At most, remind his loyal master to pay attention, this doctor is so bold to say it directly and affirmatively.
Or is it that under the guidance of Cheng Shaomu, the doctor is already Cheng Yuanniang's henchman and wants to take the opportunity to make trouble?
"Yes, that's for sure." Mr. Wang said.
Shen Xiu couldn't help but ponder, Brother Chao'er must be really sick if he was sick. Otherwise, it was so big to toss, but in the end it was found out to be a fake disease, and Cheng Yuanniang estimated that she would be in trouble.
If there was only Cheng Yuanniang, she didn't care about Brother Chao'er's life or death, it was possible to use Brother Chao'er to play a game.
But Cheng Shaomu is not a fool, he understands what his sister looks like better than anyone else.
It is impossible for Cheng Yuanniang to give birth to a child, it is rare to have a living eldest son in her hand, this is her hole card, and it is also the only possibility to turn over.
Taking the only hole card as a game, in her impression, Cheng Shaomu was not so unwise.
If someone else does it......
Look at this backyard, the Wu family won't, she can't wait for Cheng Yuanniang to always be the princess.
Nian Ruolan is a soy sauce maker, and the Ye family sisters have no heart and no courage, and they also give Wei Ling as their younger brother.
Only Wei Ling, she has ambition, means, and courage.
If you make a move, you will kill Cheng Yuanniang, and it is not strange to attack Brother Chao.
However, if it was Wei Ling, her purpose would not be to kill Brother Chao'er. Under the pretext that Brother Chao'er was sick, she accused Cheng Yuanniang of not taking good care of her, and snatching Brother Chao'er over to raise her was her purpose.
really tossed Brother Chao'er to death, and for Wei Ling, it was also missing a hole card.
"Concubine ......," Mr. Wang asked tentatively.
Shen Xiu was silent in contemplation like this, and he didn't ask questions, he just had an idea, and it was not easy to say.
"It's really uncomfortable." Shen Xiu said to herself a little, the palace with a group of wives and concubines, it is difficult to take a nap. Asked: "Where is the progress of the Shizifu now?" ”
Mr. Wang: "Uncle Cheng has passed by when he heard the news, and the princess of the county seems to be on her way." The subordinates of the east wing also took them all and waited for them to fall. ”
"Took down the people of the East Wing?" Shen Xiu couldn't help but shake his head and said, "This should be the princess's stupid move." ”
There is no point in torturing people, that is, to catch a top bag, just find a reason to take the guilt at will, and the matter will be over.
This ending is Cheng Yuanniang's failure and Wei Ling's success.
And the child's wet nurse is not easy to change casually, and Chao Ge'er is sick again, so it is not good to make such a big move.
"Now there is no reliable person around the princess." Manager Wang said, "It's Uncle Cheng, a big man, it's not good to run to the backyard every day." ”
If Zhou Xi's family was still alive, things would never be like this.
She died of illness, and Wei Ling estimated that she would set off firecrackers happily.
It's that Cheng Shaomu is here now, and he is afraid that there will be less contact with him.
"Uncle Cheng doesn't know much about the back house." Shen Xiu said.
Pingyuan Hou's Mansion is headed by Mrs. Cheng alone, although Pingyuan Hou loves to drink flower wine, but the back house does not compete for favor.
Whether it is Cheng Shaomu or Cheng Yuanniang, they have always lived in the greenhouse built by Mrs. Cheng.
No, the process is less pastoral, in the end, it is a man, and he has experienced so many things. I just don't know how to fight in the house, and it's not easy to manipulate.
"That side concubine ......," Mr. Wang asked tentatively.
Now Cheng Yuanniang has begun to toss, and it will not affect the autumn moon of Pinghu for a while.
"Manager Wang, this Pinghu Autumn Moon has always been taken care of by you." Shen Xiu said suddenly.
Manager Wang was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, it has always been taken care of by the old slave." ”
Shen Xiu is a powerful master, but she doesn't like to worry about taking care of things.
Pinghu Qiuyue has a total of thirty-two rooms and twenty-two subordinates, and she basically doesn't take care of them, all of them are taken care of by him.
But suddenly asking this question made him a little confused.
"I believe that Mr. Wang is a thoughtful person." Shen Xiu said, "You won't let me down." ”
Manager Wang hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, concubine, if something goes wrong, you cut off the head of the old slave." ”
"What do I want your head to do." Shen Xiu said with a smile, and suddenly changed the tone of his words and said, "Send someone to find Lady Su, I have something to say." ”
Manager Wang was stunned, but suddenly understood a little, and said, "The side concubine means ......"
"Concubine Wei's courage is too big." Shen Xiu said, "According to her style of acting, things will soon find me." If I hadn't taught her a lesson in advance, she would have thought she would have gone to heaven. ”
In a way, Princess Cheng did have a vision in choosing this person.
In the hierarchical palace, the side concubine wants to be on the throne, and it is useless to abide by her duties.
Boldness, carefulness, and ruthlessness are all necessary. Wei Ling has it all, not to mention, but also bold.
This is an advantage, but at the same time, it is also Wei Ling's fatal wound.
No matter what Cheng Yuanniang originally thought, but since she wants to make trouble with this matter, let's make it bigger.
If she doesn't suppress Wei Ling's momentum, she doesn't want to live a quiet life.
"The side concubine is wise." Manager Wang immediately understood, and admired it very much in his heart, "The old slave went to find Lady Su in person." ”
Shen Xiu shook his head and said, "I don't need you to go." ”
Saying that, he called Linlang, gave a few words, and said, "Don't necessarily ask Lady Su to come over in person." ”
Recalling the words Su Huaiyu said next to the carriage during the Chinese New Year's Eve sacrifice, she had always wanted to thank Su Huaiyu, but she had not yet found the opportunity.
Taking advantage of this time, she also thanked Su Huaiyu.
"Yes." Linlang responded and turned around.
Shen Xiu looked at Manager Wang again and said, "It's a big deal, no one wants to run away." If you investigate it thoroughly, something went wrong with Pinghu Qiuyue. Mr. Wang, I really won't show mercy. ”
The cold sweat on Manager Wang's head suddenly fell, it was not that his errand was not done well, but Shen Xiu's tone, which was too strong.
"Please rest assured." Mr. Wang said again.
He didn't dare to say anything else, but when he said that this Pinghu Qiuyue, he took care of it single-handedly, and there would definitely be no accidents.
