Chapter 166: The Widow
Jin Zhi heard Uncle Chen say that, and then watched him walk towards the small stove on the side, wrinkled his nose and said, "If it's Aunt Lin's leftovers, don't want it." "No, in the end, her wife wants to eat the rest of an aunt's food.
Jin Zhi has a lot of rules in his heart, but Sheng Mingzhu doesn't pay much attention to the rules. Lin Qingyan stewed pigeon soup in the evening, and now that the taste has not dissipated, Uncle Chen just opened the stove and a strong fragrance came out, "Don't pay attention to so many rules-" Sheng Mingzhu was afraid that his mouth would be gone, so he just followed Uncle Chen.
The summer is not yet complete, and the servants are all there during the day, but there are no mosquitoes, and there are many at night. There were a lot of stoves next to him, and Uncle Chen was about to raise his hand to drive them away, but he found that somehow, those mosquitoes seemed to be drunk, and their wings couldn't flutter.
"What's going on?" Uncle Chen was in a daze, and Jin Zhi had already filled the rest of the soup. Sheng Mingzhu looked at the bowl of soup and asked Uncle Chen again, "Aunt Lin boiled it today?" β
Uncle Chen nodded, and Sheng Mingzhu rushed into the golden branch again, "Go and ask the doctor in the mansion to come and have a look." β
"Let's go and inquire again, what is Aunt Lin doing now."
Jin Zhi nodded, and quickly went out of the kitchen, Sheng Mingzhu looked at the remaining things on the stove, and then looked at the cook who was waiting on the side, "Knead the bowl of noodles for me, I don't think I went to bed so early tonight." β
ββ
Because it was ordered by the hostess, the doctor in the house soon came.
The soup was just stewed not long ago, and Lin Qingyan put the whole package of medicine into it, and he could smell it a little. The doctor pinched the bowl and sniffed it, his expression changed, and he arched his hand to Sheng Mingzhu before saying, "Dare to ask Madame, where did this thing come from?" β
Sheng Mingzhu's expression did not change, he just looked at the doctor and said, "You don't have to worry about how you came here, just tell me what this thing is?" What is the effect? β
When the doctor saw Sheng Mingzhu say this, he knew that it was a secret in the house, and it was inconvenient to tell him.
"This medicine is called [Dengxian]", the doctor said, "It was originally a secret medicine in the Great Zhou court, which was used to execute the princes, princesses, and royal relatives and nobles who committed crimes. After the use of this medicine, the person will be awake and comatose, and the symptoms will last for a period of time before they die, as the name suggests. Moreover, this medicine is asymptomatic, and it cannot be detected after ingestion. β
"Is it poison?" Sheng Mingzhu looked at the doctor, he nodded, "This poison is not to see blood to seal the throat, but if it goes down, it will die." β
It happened that Jin Zhi came from outside and looked at his young lady, "Madam, at night, Aunt Lin said that there was something wrong and called the Hou Ye to Qinghui Courtyard." β
Sheng Mingzhu got up from his position, and his heart felt as if he had been hung by something. She knew that Lin Qingyan was wrong, and Guan Ping also knew that she would drink without her giving him anything - but who would have thought that the prince would suddenly jump off the wall in a hurry, thinking of this, Sheng Mingzhu's originally steady steps suddenly accelerated, and he quickly walked in the direction of Qinghui Courtyard.
When I arrived at Qinghui Courtyard, Bihe was guarding outside.
From a distance, he saw Sheng Mingzhu and Jin Zhi followed by a large number of people coming to Huhulala, their faces changed, but the distance was already very close. When Sheng Mingzhu arrived, she didn't even have time to talk to Lin Qingyan inside, so she could only hang her head and say hello to her, "Hello, madam." β
Sheng Mingzhu ignored Bihe, and walked directly into the house without her. Bihe stretched out his hand to stop someone, but was slapped by the golden branch behind Sheng Mingzhu, "Find out your own identity-"
Sheng Mingzhu didn't know what was going on behind her, so she only went into the house. Inside, Guan Ping and Lin Qingyan sat looking at each other, the door outside was suddenly broken, and the two of them looked at each other and saw Sheng Mingzhu standing outside - they couldn't see the looks of the two inside, Sheng Mingzhu only saw the bowl in Guan Ping's hand, which was empty.
In addition, there is a half cup of pigeon soup on the tray on the table.
It was too late to feel anything for a while, Sheng Mingzhu walked up to Guan Ping, snatched the soup bowl, and scolded him is sprinkler, "You can't eat enough of the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and the beauties can't see you enough, so are you missing this bowl of pigeon soup?" Before Guan Ping could react, he saw that his wife, who had just described the shrew as scolding him, had red eyes.
Let's tear up.
Guan Pingyuan was still a little angry, he was scolded by his wife for no reason, and he was always a little angry in his heart, and he didn't see her crying again. Sheng Mingzhu held the bowl, and when she thought that she would become a widow soon, she couldn't help but lean on Guan Ping's back and clenched her fists to hit him, "Are you right about me?" I'm still so young, let me be a widow, and I tell you, I'm sure I'll remarry......"
Sheng Mingzhu cried into a small flower face, even if Guan Ping was angry when he heard the word remarriage, he was reluctant to get angry when he saw this little crying cat-like face. Now Da Bottom also knew what she was crying about, so he wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips, "Who said you were a widow-"
Sheng Mingzhu choked up, and held the bowl in his arms, Guan Ping couldn't cry or laugh, so he only hugged her into his arms and said in a low voice, "Didn't I tell you about this a few days ago?" You said you weren't interested in this matter that day, so I didn't say it, why did you cry like this for a few days? β
Guan Ping didn't explain anything, Sheng Mingzhu's mind turned and he quickly reacted, he already knew?
Lin Qingyan sat on the side, watching the husband and wife cry and laugh, only hating that he didn't see it earlier. How can I get involved in this-Guan Ping hugged Sheng Mingzhu and comforted him softly, while looking at Lin Qingyan again, he glanced at her, and Lin Qingyan got up.
Bihe Jinzhi was waiting outside, and she didn't see Guan Ping and Sheng Mingzhu, but she came out.
"Where's my wife?" Jin Zhi stepped forward and asked.
If Lin Qingyan had the heart to talk back to her before, now he has no intention of fighting, so he just waved his hand casually, "Madame and Master Hou are inside." In the second half of the night, I was a little sleepy, Bihe, help me to the side room to rest. β
Bihe didn't know what was going on, and when she saw her look, she didn't dare to ask anything, and quickly went to the side room with her help.
ββ
Sheng Mingzhu leaned on Guan Ping's knee in the house, "You really haven't drunk?" Her voice was slightly nasal, her head was buried in Guan Ping's chest, remembering the bear she was crying just now, and she didn't have a face for a long time.
"Lin Qingyan didn't dare, she spilled the soup herself, and she wanted to seek sincerity with me."
Guan Ping's chin rested on her hair, it was already the second half of the night, the shadow of the window outside was shaking, and he didn't speak for a long time. Sheng Mingzhu didn't have anything to say, just leaned quietly in his arms, and after a while, he felt a little sleepy, "I have to calculate and pretend in my own home every day, and this day is a little boring." β
Guan Ping's voice was slightly hoarse, "I'll take you out for a walk, do you like the peonies in Hancheng?" β
Sheng Mingzhu smiled, "You lied to me." β
He has so many things to do every day, and he is not an idler, so how can he have time to go to Hancheng outside the border?
Guan Ping didn't say anything more, and after a long while, the breathing of the person in his arms gradually stabilized, and he began to snore slightly. Carrying the people to the inner room, covering them with the quilt, they came out, and the gray clothes were still waiting outside, "Go and call them." β
Gray nodded.
Bihe was originally lying on the couch next to Lin Qingyan's bed, Lin Qingyan couldn't sleep peacefully at night, and when he heard someone calling outside, both of them knew what was going on, and they went to the study all the way to the study, Guan Ping didn't talk nonsense with the two of them, and only let Bihe spread today's news.
As for Lin Qingyan, after leaving the house, she is willing to return to the alley building or follow her from Liangdu. It's just that during this time, I have to live away from the world for the time being.
"Master Hou, don't you miss your old feelings at all?" Beauty has always been a little more arrogant, if Lin Qingyan is willing to be ordinary, he will not respond to the prince's request, so he raised his eyes to look at Guan Ping, the beautiful eyes, and there are prayers among them, whoever sees it will soften his heart a little.
"If I don't remember the old love, you will have gone down to be with your husband."
Lin Qingyan's face quickly turned pale, knowing that Guan Ping already knew all the things in his past, and his heart was really dead now.
ββ
Bihe went to the prince's mansion early the next morning and entered through the back door.
Before the prince woke up early in the morning, he heard Chang casually, who was waiting beside him, say that the maid in front of Lin Qingyan was coming, and he got up from the bed in the concubine's room with a frown, only wearing a coat, and when he got outside, he saw a person in the hall, his clothes were not very neat, and the bun on his head was messy, "What's the matter?" β
As if thinking of something, the prince's eyes suddenly lit up.
Bihe stayed for a while before kowtowing on the ground, "I've seen the prince." β
"Tell me, what's going on? What about Lin Qingyan? β
Bihe lay on the ground, her voice trembling a little, "Yesterday, according to the instructions of the prince, Miss Hou drugged Hou Ye when he came to Qinghui Courtyard at night. I don't know if it's because there is too much medicine or too little, Hou Ye suddenly passed out, and the doctor couldn't find anything unusual-but Hou Ye fainted when he arrived at Miss's place, and Mrs. detained Miss - " Speaking of this, Bi He paused, and kept kowtowing to the ground, "Please ask the prince to save my young lady!" β
Xu has been thinking about things for many years, and the prince's first reaction is naturally not very believable. Although he gave Lin Qingyan an order, how could Guan Ping die so easily, he only waved his hand, "You go back to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion first." Alone has its own opinions. β
Bihe fell on the ground and wept in a low voice, and the prince was tired of hearing it, and soon beckoned, and two maids called to take Bihe away.
He was the only one left, and the concubine walked out, "Master, don't you have to go to court today?" After saying that, she leaned on him softly, and it was obvious what it meant. But the prince pushed her away, and called outside, "Someone is comingβ" and instructed the concubine, "Serve the lonely dressβ"
Soon a little eunuch came in, and the prince ordered, "Go and call Zhang Zhong's men, hurry, the sooner the better!" β
The little eunuch nodded hurriedly, and was just about to go out when he was stopped by the prince, "Send someone to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion again to find out what happened yesterday?" "If it's really as the little maid said, there won't be any movement yesterday. The side concubine was originally pushed away by the prince, and she was still a little aggrieved, and she saw that he was in a hurry to leave, and she was reluctant to serve him to dress.
The prince waited a little anxiously, so he only put on his coat, put on his boots and left in a hurry.
