After Mu Ying came out of the mansion, he went straight to the housekeeper and checked the list of guests that day, and indeed found a strange name.

"Who is this Shamu?" Mu Ying asked the housekeeper.

"This ......" The housekeeper himself was confused, and invited the little guy who registered that day, and after the little guy came, he immediately recalled: "It's a very beautiful young lady." ”

Mu Ying raised his hand to give him a popping chestnut before saying, "I don't care if she's beautiful or not, you tell me who she is first." ”

The little girl covered her head that was hurt, and then found a booklet and flipped through it, before pointing to a line written down on it and said: "This young lady came alone, saying that she is an old friend with our eldest lady, and she came to congratulate her, and she also sent a lot of ayara jewelry to ......."

Mu Ying frowned, if it was Miss Yansleeve's old friend, she should know it, but why had she never heard of this name?

"Anything else?"

"Something else?" The little girl scratched his head again, and saw that Mu Ying was about to knock him, so he hurriedly said: "I remember, this young lady has been following a few birds, dusty, but very obedient, I was surprised at that time." ”

"Birds? Birds! Mu Ying reacted suddenly, the clue that Miss said must be this, then she has to find a way to get one.

After thinking about it, he immediately took the only clue and went out.

It didn't take long for the emperor's decree to reward him to come down.

The father-in-law who passed the decree came to the Wei Mansion first.

Wei Xin had been panicking because of the old concubine, for fear that the emperor would be angry with him, so he hid at home and didn't dare to go out.

The housekeeper saw that he was afraid of this, and reminded: "The slave looks at the smiling father-in-law who passed the decree, maybe it's a good thing, and our young lady has made a meritorious contribution in the matter of the old lady, maybe the emperor will send someone to reward it." ”

"Reward?" Wei Xin was still uneasy, but it was impossible not to accept the holy decree, so he hesitated for a moment, but still went out hard.

When he arrived in the hall, his father-in-law, who had a cold attitude before, greeted him with a smile when he saw him today, and said, "Congratulations to the Hou Ye, congratulations to the Hou Ye." ”

"Master Hou?" Wei Xin was stunned.

The father-in-law immediately said: "Yes, the emperor is the one who asked the Sprinkle family to pass on this will, to restore your marquis, and to appoint you as the minister of the Qincha." ”

Wei Xin jumped hard, and hurriedly motioned to the housekeeper to stuff a big red envelope, and his father-in-law read out the will with a smile.

After reading it, Wei Xin had restored the title of Marquis of Wuning and was named the minister of the third rank.

"What is this minister going to investigate?" Wei Xin was still a little worried.

"Don't worry, the emperor hasn't said it yet, I'm afraid that there is no errand sent abroad, and when I have it, I will send you there immediately. And with the current honor of your Wei family, it must be a very good thing for you. After the father-in-law finished speaking, he motioned to the little father-in-law behind him to hand over another holy decree and asked him, "Is the fourth lady here?" ”

"Ruyi? She's ...... in Chen's house now."

"The Chen family?" The father-in-law looked at him suspiciously, and Wei Xin hurriedly explained: "It's a temporary stay for a few days, and I'll pick it up in a few days." ”

Only then did the father-in-law laugh: "That's the case, if that's the case, let's go to the Sprinkle family." ”

Wei Xin hurriedly said: "The emperor also wants to reward Ruyi?" ”

"That's natural, this time the old lady went down the mountain, thanks to the fourth lady, the old lady herself willed, to accept the fourth miss as her granddaughter, Roujia Guifei is the fourth lady's stepmother, the emperor is now planning to canonize the fourth miss as Princess Jinghe, after the canonization today, there will be a canonization ceremony after a while." After the father-in-law finished laughing, Wei Xin hurriedly handed over a thick purse.

The father-in-law accepted it with a smile, saluted him, and reminded: "The daughter of the Hou Ye, the future is immeasurable." ”

Wei Xin's head was clouded, and he couldn't imagine that Ruyi could let the old lady accept her as her granddaughter, and Concubine Roujia even accepted her as a righteous daughter, such an honor, who can have it in the entire capital?

He felt that the gloom in his heart was swept away, and when he watched his father-in-law leave, he hurriedly called the housekeeper to instruct: "Go, prepare the carriage, I will pick up Ruyi and go home." ”

"Master, you take the fourth lady back like this, what did the old lady say?" The housekeeper reminded him that the old lady insisted on driving the fourth lady out. And with the personality of Miss Four, even if she invites her, she may not be willing to go back.

Thinking of this, Wei Xin's face sank: "Then go and ask the old lady first." After saying that, he passed with a calm face.

It was getting late, and when Wei Ruyi received the emperor's canonization decree, he was not surprised, and he was not very interested in those gorgeous jewelry silk satins, so he only said to the edict: "I don't know when I can go to see the concubine?" ”

"Princess, don't worry, when the concubine is better, she will naturally send someone to invite you over." The father-in-law smiled, this Wei Ruyi has such a ability to please the old lady to treat her like this, but it is much better than the princesses in the palace who are nested in the deep palace.

"Yes, then please trouble my father-in-law to kowtow to the emperor as Ruyi, and Ruyi will definitely enter the palace in person tomorrow to thank you." Wei Ruyi smiled at him.

"You're welcome, that's what a minion should do." The father-in-law didn't accept the purse stuffed by the people, and saluted again before turning around and leaving.

Chen Yansleeve watched him leave, then turned his head to look at Chen Ding on the side, and said, "Father, do you say this is a good thing or a bad thing?" ”

Chen Ding smiled: "No matter what is good or bad, the emperor has opened his mouth, can we still do it?" However, Ming'er entered the palace as he wished, and he had to be careful. ”

"Ruyi understands."

"The rules of the harem are heavy, I will invite a grandmother to tell you about it later......" After Chen Ding finished speaking, he instructed the housekeeper to go down and make arrangements.

Chen Yansleeve looked at Wei Ruyi, who was not smiling at the bottom of her eyes, and saw that she had something on her mind, and after Chen Ding left, he asked her quietly: "Ruyi, what are you thinking?" ”

"It's okay, I'm going out tonight, my sister told my grandfather for me, I won't stay for dinner." Wei Ruyi said with a smile and trotted out.

Chen Yansleeve saw her leave in a hurry, frowning, what secret is this girl hiding in her heart, so mysterious.

After Wei Ruyi left the house, he went straight to Laifu Building, Laifu Building was about to open in two days with the help of the shopkeeper Shen, Wei Ruyi asked Fang Bo to buy a small but very secluded courtyard behind Laifu Building, and dug a secret passage in the previous room to use it as a place for them to meet.

After Wei Ruyi came over, Uncle Fang immediately went to the kitchen to work, but Wei Ruyi went straight to the backyard.

After arriving, Xue Wuxian sat under the porch at the door and slept, Xiao Yao paced back and forth, and when she saw her coming, she said anxiously: "Miss, you are here." ”

"How?"

"Yesterday, after you asked Gou Yu to send Wuhui over, she told everything she knew, saying that the hospital was asking them about your general prescription, as if she wanted to make up her mind about the prescription." Xiao Yao said: "Now that he is the head of the hospital, if he says that there is a problem with the prescription, who dares to say that he is wrong?" Miss, your prescription ......"

"If he says that, he'll save me a problem." Wei Ru's opinion was just about this matter, he breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again: "What about Wuhui, have you sent it back?" ”

"After asking yesterday, I asked the dog to send it back quickly, and no one found out, but I think she wants to come out of the temple, and I want Miss to help her, so I take it upon myself and answer her first, but the premise is that she keeps an eye on Wukang and the courtyard for us." Xiao Yao said a little timidly.

She was afraid that she would make the young lady angry by making her own decisions, but she didn't expect Wei Ruyi to smile comfortingly at her after listening to it: "It's a matter of urgency, you did the right thing, I received the news last night and was going to come out, but something was delayed during the day." ”

Xiao Yao also smiled at ease, and then said: "And you let you keep an eye on Yun Hao, Da Chun Erchun didn't dare to relax at all, I heard that after yesterday, he returned to Yun Mansion and lost a lot of temper, and he never came out again, and I don't know if he was planning something in secret." ”

"Don't worry, you let Da Chun Erchun spread the news these days."

"What's the news?"

"News of the Bailuo Bird." The corners of Wei Ruyi's mouth rose with evil spirit.

After Wei Ruyi came out, Uncle Fang had already come with the food, Xue Wuxian, who was still sleeping, smelled the smell of rice, his nose moved, his eyes hadn't opened yet, the person had already come over, and was pushed away by Xiao Yao with a slap.

"What are you doing......

"Go out to eat yourself when you're hungry, don't think about robbing Miss!" Xiao Yao glared at him.

Xue Wuxian clasped his hands on his chest and threatened her: "Little girl, do you believe that I threw you out?" ”

Xiao Yao snorted: "Throw me? Throw me away, I see if Uncle Fang will not cook for you in the future! ”

Fang Bo smiled: "A ball of harmony, don't make noise, don't make noise." ”

After speaking, he looked at Wei Ruyi with a smile and said, "Miss, come and try it, these are the four signature dishes I picked out with Shopkeeper Shen." ”

Wei Ruyi looked at it, these four dishes not only looked good, but also tasted extremely fragrant.

"What is this made of?"

"One is made of crab meat, these crabs are all I asked for from an old customer, his family does this fresh business, I want this crab, he picks the best for me, I just pick out the crab meat, and then mix two uncommon but unique ingredients with seasoning, this dish is made."

Uncle Fang was very proud, and Xiao Yao was speechless when he heard it: "This dish is so laborious." ”

"Isn't it? And this steaming and stir-frying work has to be a specific heat, the heat is big, the meat is old and woody, the heat is small, the meat is too tender, only a specific heat, this crab meat is so tender, with this plate of crab roe and crab paste, tsk, this taste is not ordinary people can eat. Fang Bo gushed endlessly, and Xiao Yao secretly swallowed his saliva.

Wei Ruyi also had a special appetite, picked up the chopsticks and tasted it, it was indeed tender, and she couldn't wait to swallow her tongue.

The remaining three dishes are also famous, and they are all time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Wei Ruyi tasted some before saying, "Since this dish is so laborious, it is better to prepare only one table a day." ”

"A table?" Uncle Fang hurriedly said: "Although it is laborious, if you find more people to help, it is not that you can't supply it." ”

"No, more is ordinary, just less. Rare is expensive, those who have eaten are praised for the deliciousness of the world, and they always hook people to eat, this name does not need your effort, you will play it yourself, and then consider increasing the amount when the business becomes bigger in the future. After speaking, Wei Ruyi looked at Xiao Yao and Xue Wuxian who were gluttonous on the side, and pulled out more than half of the ones they had just tried and gave them them, and the two of them had no time to fight since they started eating.

Uncle Fang was only surprised by Wei Ruyi's words, he had never thought about this before, he had always felt that the aroma of wine was not afraid of the deep alley, until he was killed by this Laifu Building.

"I'll go and talk to Shopkeeper Shen."

"Hmm." Wei Ruyi nodded, seeing that things were in order, she asked Uncle Fang to prepare some more breakfast and soft and easy-to-digest pastries, and when it was dawn the next day, she went around the back door of the Chen family to Laifu Building to get the breakfast prepared by Uncle Fang, and went to the other courtyard.

When it was all light, a group of congratulatory people came to the gate of Chen's mansion, but they were all blocked back by Old Man Chen because of his poor health.

Yun Hao was also in this group of people, and he couldn't get in at the door, so he returned to the carriage with a gloomy face.

The little servant said flatteringly: "Master, why don't you go and go to the former sons to have fun and relax." ”

"My life is going to be gone, what to play!" Yun Hao smacked him angrily.

The little guy shrunk his neck, and then said: "I heard that there is a new thing in the capital recently, called Bailuo Bird, which is a bird from Fusang, very vicious and fierce, and likes to peck people's eyeballs. ”

Yun Hao listened, and then he became a little interested: "Bailuo Bird? ”

"Yes, I heard that the little one, if trained well, can still listen to the command." Seeing that he was interested, the little girl became more and more attentive to tell him all the gossip he heard in the middle of the night last night.

Yun Hao was interested in such a poisonous thing, and secondly, he thought of using this thing to kill people.

Wei Ruyi was surrounded by so many masters, ordinary assassins couldn't kill them, so this inadvertent bird would never be guarded against.

As soon as he thought so, he immediately called for a car to drive there.

But when he arrived at the place where the birds were purchased, he saw a group of people surrounding the cage.

The birds in the cage have unusually dark eyes, and their sharp beaks keep pecking at the cage.

Yun Hao just came, and he took a fancy to it at a glance.

"I want this bird!"

"Yo, Yun Gongzi, this bird is not cheap." Someone shouted. Who doesn't want to buy one to play, but this bird is fierce.

Yun Hao snorted coldly: "What about expensive?" After speaking, he took out a stack of silver tickets and threw them on the face of the bird seller: "To the master." ”

The man who was wrapped in a cloak and bowed his head immediately gave him the bird, and then stooped down to pick up the silver ticket.

Yun Hao didn't pay attention to her face at all, and left with the birds, and everyone dispersed.

The person who picked up the silver ticket got up and watched him leave, only then did he slowly straighten up and turn his head to look at Mu Ying who was standing in the corner: "The matter is done, what else do you want?" ”

"Thank you, girl, for helping." Mu Ying originally planned to grab one, but these birds were so clever that she couldn't touch them at all, but instead woke up the owner of the birds, Shamu.

The corners of Sha Muyan's red mouth were slightly hooked: "You're welcome, you can have as much as you want this bird, but ......"

Mu Ying immediately looked up at her nervously, but Sha Mu laughed, her unusually deep facial features became more and more bright, and she only tilted her head slightly to look at Mu Ying and said, "I said that it was Chen Yansleeve's old friend, even if it was to help her, but Wei Ruyi is also your master, right?" ”

Mu Ying frowned: "How do you know her?" ”

"If you want to know, you can know each other, what's all the fuss." Sha Mu's fingers gently curled up a strand of hair in front of him, walked up to Mu Ying, saw her slightly blushing face when looking at herself, raised her hand and gently pinched her chin, leaned closer to her and said to her, "You tell her, I will still look for her." ”

Mu Ying looked at her big watery eyes and looked at herself and smiled, goosebumps rose all over, and she immediately jumped away: "If you want to hurt my young lady, I will never let you go!" ”

"I'm going to hurt her, the bird pecked her eyes last time, how can it stay until now?" Sha Mu pursed her lips, counted the silver tickets in her hand boringly, and then turned to leave.

Mu Ying saw her leave like this, and wanted to follow, but just around the corner, she disappeared.

She looked around and saw that she was indeed gone, so she hurried back to report to Wei Ruyi in annoyance.

After she left, Sha Mu walked out of the silk shop on the side, looking at the back of her leaving, the corners of her mouth raised, what she Sha Mu wanted to get, there was nothing she couldn't get.

After she left, Ayi in the shadows immediately went back to report.

Lou Yan had just drunk the medicine, and when he heard his return, he glanced at Mu Yun, and Mu Yun immediately said; "Fusang has a family of drug refiners comparable to the royal family, do you remember?"

Lou Yan remembered, his eyebrows moved slightly.

Ah Zhong immediately said with a big mouth: "I remember that when I was young, I singled out this family and mixed up all the poison arsenal that other people had saved for several lifetimes. ”

Lou Yan glanced at him coldly, Ah Zhong's back was cold, and he immediately shut up obediently.

Mu Yuncai said: "For so many years, they have been looking for Zunshang, and this Miss Shamu is the rising star of the family, and she is bent on seeking revenge on Zun, but they haven't found out who Zunshang is for so many years." So now, she suddenly appeared in Beiyan, and she came to Miss Wei again, most likely because she knew Miss Wei's medical skills. ”

"There is no separation between medicine and poison, the second master once said that although their family is famous for refining poisons, since you smashed their poison storehouse, there are many poisons that their descendants can't practice, so I wonder if it has something to do with this."

Mu Yun said a lot, and Ah Zhong concluded: "So it's still a strange honor." ”

Ayi also obeyed his unobstructed mouth, how did the Venerable endure it for so many years without beating him to death.

"Go and remind Ruyi and protect her."

"Then what happened back then......" Mu Yun looked at him hesitantly, Lou Yan hid the slightest embarrassment, and said, "That's it, I'll tell her personally." ”

Everyone was relieved, and Lou Yan asked about other things.

Mu Yun said: "Concubine Mei has been sent to the palace, I think the emperor is already mad now, as for the fifth prince, whether he can survive this hurdle depends on whether he is ruthless enough." If he can abandon Concubine Mei, he will be able to protect himself, but such a vicious person will be more difficult to deal with in the future. ”

"So he must die."

After Lou Yan finished speaking, he glanced at the chess game beside him, gave up a chess piece, and went one step further, eating a piece of white chess.

After Yun Hao returned to Yunfu, he went to ponder the hundred birds, and the little servants were all waiting outside, and after a while, there was only one concubine who came to deliver the soup.

This concubine has been crazy for a long time since her five-year-old child was found dead in a dry well in the backyard, and for some reason, she suddenly regained her consciousness in the past two days.

Yun Hao still had a trace of guilt, so he let her out.

The little maid saw her coming and said with a smile: "Auntie stewed soup?" ”

The concubine smiled shyly: "The craftsmanship is a little raw, and I don't know if the son still likes it or not." "She looks very good, she is the kind of soft and delicate beauty of Jiangnan women, and her smile is as gentle as a picture scroll, even if she has been crazy for a few years, her skin is a little worse, but now after dressing up, she is still beautiful and moving.

The little girl watched her deliberately change into an Ai blue long dress, and the pink belly pockets inside were all visible, so he swallowed his saliva and hurriedly let her go in to find Yun Hao.

Wei Ruyi had already gotten off the carriage at the gate of the courtyard at this time, and after saying his intention with a smile, someone immediately went to reply, and after a while, the old lady came out in person, and when she saw her, her eyes were full of pity: "Why is the princess here." ”

"I miss my ancestors." Wei Ruyi said with a smile.

The old lady sighed in her heart, and only smiled on her face: "The old lady is fine, after taking your medicine, she can sleep for several hours at night, but the old lady needs to be quiet now......"

Wei Ruyi understood what she meant, and she was not reluctant, but handed the food box in her hand to the old grandmother: "There is breakfast prepared in it, and it is mixed with medicinal herbs, and it is still bothering grandma." ”

"The princess is bothered."

"If the old ancestor has any discomfort, he must send someone to invite me immediately." Wei Ruyi admonished, and the old lady nodded, and then turned her head and went in.

Wei Ruyi also returned to the carriage, but she also expected this scene, so she only instructed the coachman: "Let's go back to the Wei Mansion first." "If you go back to Wei Mansion from here, you must pass through Yunfu, and you will know whether things are successful or not.

She thought of the concubine who had been quietly brought out by Xue Wuxian during the day yesterday, and looked at her haggard appearance, feeling both pitiful and hateful. If she hadn't used her child as a bargaining chip to compete for favor, how could the child be calculated by other concubines who did everything for the sake of men? Yun Hao was even more shameless, knowing the truth about the child's death, but pretending that nothing had happened because of favoritism.

Today, let's settle a debt.

Wei Ruyi's carriage slowly passed in front of the Yunfu Gate, and at that moment, a heart-rending scream came from the Yunfu.

The little guy guarding outside the door of Yun Hao's study heard the sound, was startled, and hurriedly pushed the door, but when he pushed it open, he was stunned, and the people who followed him were also so frightened that they covered their mouths, and at this time, Yun Hao only covered his eyes with his hands and shouted: "Kill her for me, kill this slut!" ”

Half of the concubine's face was full of bloodstains from being caught, and two fingers on one hand were drooping, as if she had been broken alive, but her palms were holding on to those two eyeballs, and she laughed like crazy: "Yun Hao, this is the sin you deserve, you deserve to die!" After saying that, without waiting for anyone to kill her, she crashed into the corner of the table and died.

The cage was startled to the ground, and with a hissing of the bird, it flew out like a shadow.

Outside the mansion, Wei Ruyi saw the blackbird disappear into the sky, his eyes were indifferent, Yun Hao, this is just the beginning.
