From the third room to the big room, you have to pass through several courtyards along the way. Lu Yunlan was thinking about what Du Juan had said about Xue Lan before, and her steps couldn't help but be a little slower, and Lian Rong followed her master, so she was naturally unhurried.

When passing through a bamboo forest, I vaguely heard someone talking in the forest.

Out of an unknown sixth sense, Lu Yunlan stopped and listened to two sentences.

“…… Brother Chen Ping, I have already tried to find a way to ask for a miracle doctor in Jiangnan, but the whereabouts of the miracle doctor are uncertain...... It doesn't bring people back to the ...... right away for a while. Imperial Physician ...... Doctor Fang is my man...... I can ask him to help me for a ...... or two."

“…… Your Highness has a heart...... It's just that Chen Ping has always had a stubborn illness and is not in good health, so he is afraid of ...... Doctor Fang said that the sooner the sores are treated, the better, but Chen Ping avoided medical treatment, which dragged him to the current ......"

- The only one who can be called His Royal Highness is the prince of the dynasty!

Now that the eldest prince died early, the second prince is not allowed to be favored, and Wu Guifei, who gave birth to the third prince, is not in harmony with the Lu family.

Lu Yunlan took half a step back in panic, and stepped on the dead leaves without paying attention to make a small sound, and the conversation in the bamboo forest immediately stopped. She could only watch as two people came out of the woods in a short time.

The beautiful young man in purple clothes was really Ji Ling, he raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw Lu Yunlan, and smiled before he said anything, as if to say, "We are really destined." And behind him was a young man in a white robe with gold rim, who looked a few years younger than Ji Ling, but he was also handsome, and he was a little similar to the Lu family.

"This is ......" The white-robed young man frowned slightly, but when he saw Ji Ling's calm expression, he was also a little relieved, and thought for a while, "Could it be the third sister of the second uncle's family?" In his cognition, several cousins were born with their own merits, but they didn't have much contact, so they couldn't remember it for a while.

Ji Ling smiled, "You can't even recognize your own relatives...... This is the youngest daughter of Grandpa Guo, our fifth sister. At the end, he turned to Lu Yunlan and said, "This is the Fourth Highness." ”

The white-robed young man heard the first half of the sentence, and the expression on his face suddenly became subtle, and he exchanged a look with Ji Ling without a trace, and then called out in a warm voice.

"It turned out to be the fifth sister."

Lu Yunlan couldn't retreat, so she could only be blessed, "I've seen my cousin, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince." The girl in blue paused for a moment, and then said, "Lan Niang passed by here and accidentally disturbed the conversation between the two cousins, but it was really not intentional. ”

"It's okay," Yu Wenwen smiled, "We're just chatting casually, not bothering." ”

Although Yu Wenwen was smiling, there was still a cloud of sadness between his eyebrows, which must have been troubled by the injury of the person named "Chen Ping" just now.

In fact, the disease of sores and ulcers is not a major problem, but is generally caused by the internal invasion of poisonous evils, and the evil heat burns the blood, resulting in the stagnation of qi and blood. However, the onset of this disease is rapid, and if it is not treated in time, it can easily cause serious consequences such as damage to muscles and bones. Listening to the conversation between the two just now, "Chen Ping" has been ill for a long time, and he has reached the point of asking for a famous doctor......

Lu Yunlan hesitated.

Ruan was adopted by a famous doctor in Jiangnan in her early years, learned a lot of skills, and also had a few hand-copied medicine scriptures, and later these books were made as her dowry and went to the Ji Mansion. She and Ji Minghe didn't have a long relationship, and most of her free time later relied on those books to pass the time, so she did see a good way to treat sores.

It's just that she brought it up so rashly, doesn't it prove that she overheard the two of them just now?

“…… There is still something going on in the Wind Lotus Courtyard, so Lan Niang will not bother the two. ”

Thinking about it, Lu Yunlan finally had a plan, and after she saluted the two of them, she led the maid Shi Shiran to leave. It's just that when she passed under the leafy acacia tree in front of her, the girl in blue brushed her waist as if unintentionally, and dropped something on the pile of thick yellow leaves.

It was a very light sound, if it weren't for Ji Ling paying attention to her movements, she would almost never have noticed it.

Ji Ling's surprised gaze swirled on the girl's back as she gradually moved away, he didn't think that Lu Yunlan hadn't noticed it, so it could only be deliberate - she deliberately left something.

The purple-clothed young man stepped forward quickly, bent down and picked up an object from the fallen leaves.

"Ji Ling," Yu Wenwen was still worried about Chen Ping's affairs, and he didn't even care much about Lu Yunlan leaving, but when he saw that Ji Ling seemed to have encountered something new, he casually asked, "What are you looking for?" ”

It was an ordinary sachet with white flowers on a blue background, embroidered with a delicate magnolia petal. If it weren't for watching it fall from Lu Yunlan's body with his own eyes, it would be no problem even if it was a maid's. Ji Ling quietly held the sachet in his hand, stood up and said with a smile, "It's okay, it's just that I saw this pile of fallen leaves shaking just now, and I was afraid that there were some snakes and insects in it that scared people, so I looked through it carefully." ”

Yu Wenwen did not doubt him, but said, "There are a lot of plants and trees here, it is inevitable that there will be these things, and when the time comes, call some people to clean it up." ”

"Okay."

Ji Ling didn't say much, and the two of them left the bamboo forest with their own hearts.

Back to the Wind Lotus Courtyard, the cuckoo hadn't come back yet, but Xue Lan was embroidering under the corridor to the light, she saw Lu Yunlan and Lianrong coming back, and hurriedly put down the half-embroidered handkerchief and came over to salute.

"Why did Miss come back?" Xue Lan's expression was slightly different, but her mouth was earnest, "Mama Wang knew that today was the birthday of the third lady, and the ladies were going to eat and drink, so she told the slave maid to guard here." Miss is back so early...... Could it be that you are not feeling well? ”

Lu Yunlan shook her head, "I'm a little dizzy after eating, you go to the small kitchen to find a bowl of hangover soup." ”

"Yes, slave and maid will go."

Lu Yunlan saw Xue Lan leave in a hurry, so she took Lian Rong's hand and walked into the house, she whispered, "You wait outside for a while, if you see Du Juan, let Du Juan guard outside for you, and when Young Master Ji comes, stop him outside the Wind Lotus Courtyard...... As for you, Shella girl...... You keep an eye on me. ”

Lian Rong glanced at her young lady in surprise, but Lu Yunlan didn't want to explain more, so she could only answer "yes".

This unmarried woman can't meet with a man often......! Even if it's a cousin, you have to avoid suspicion, how can Miss be so sure that Young Master Ji will come......

After explaining the personal maid, Lu Yunlan went straight to the dresser, she turned the jewelry box upside down, and sure enough, she found a cold object between the bottom two layers of handkerchiefs. She quietly took it out and sat back outside.

Not long after, Xue Lan came back with hangover soup.

Lu Yunlan sat in the room, supporting her head with one hand, while her personal maid Lianrong was nowhere to be found. Xue Lan hesitated for a moment, but could only step forward and put the soup on the table in Lu Yunlan's hand before saying softly.

"Miss, the slave is back."

"Hmm."

The girl's voice was low and soft, and she seemed to be a little confused, but she still glanced up at Xue Lan before she said, "...... What about lotus seeds? ”

"Sister Lianrong is not here, can the young lady ask the slave to find it?"

Xue Lan was originally very willing to serve the young ladies closely, but Lu Yunlan gave her a disgrace when they first met - anyway, her wife is also an old man in the Qingguo Mansion, which doesn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha...... In the final analysis, these five young ladies were just born to the old man and the woman outside-yes, she was resentful early in the morning, and she wished to leave early.

But Lu Yunlan suddenly grabbed her wrist and twisted her eyebrows slightly.

"You wait and look for her, and I'll talk to you."

“…… Yes, miss. ”

There was a faint incense in the room, and Xue Lan could vaguely distinguish the smell of sandalwood. It's funny to say, the girl's family is generally not this flower fragrance or that flower fragrance, but these five young ladies only like to order a taste of sandalwood in the house, the last time the fourth lady passed by, and was surprised to ask them if they invited their sister-in-law to recite the scriptures.

"I heard that your mother is a Zhao woman who was purchased from the kitchen?"

Coldly, Lu Yunlan asked. Xue Lan couldn't guess what the five young ladies were thinking for a while, so she could only answer truthfully.

"Yes, miss. The slave maid's family has been the descendant of the Qingguo Mansion since the old lady. ”

Lu Yunlan let out a soft "oh" in a soft tone, tilted her head slightly, and only looked at her with a pair of pitch-black pupils. Those eyes seemed to be drunk, but they were not really drunk, and the shadows were a little cold.

"It's a bit of a disservice to you to serve me," the girl sighed, "I'm just a concubine, and you should serve the eldest sister in your capacity; Otherwise, it should be the second sister, I heard that the second sister treats people very well. ”

Xue Lan was startled and hurriedly knelt down.

"The young lady has tormented the slave! This...... The slave is just a slave, how dare she say that she is not an identity. ”

The second lady, Lu Yunmeng, looks kind on the surface, but in fact she is narrow-minded. If she goes to Furong Courtyard on an errand, where can she get a first-class status? Moreover, Aunt Yao is also a warm-hearted and cold-hearted ...... Xue Lan thought of what she had complained about last time, and that aunt even wanted to buy ingredients for the main courtyard......

She shuddered, not daring to think about it again.

Lu Yunlan looked at her with a light smile, took the decanting soup and drank it slowly.

"The three generations of your Zhao family are all from the house, Mrs. Zhao buys in the kitchen, your father works in the village, and you are a well-spoken ...... I'm just a newcomer, and I just want an ordinary and honest girl...... As for you......"

It sounded as if there was something in the words.

Xue Lan gritted her teeth and kowtowed fiercely.

"What did the young lady say?" She raised her head suddenly, her eyes were extremely determined, "If the cuckoo said, the young lady doesn't have to believe her - the slave saw the cuckoo's little hooves breaking into the young lady's bedroom alone, and thought that the young lady had said that we were not allowed to enter if we had nothing to do, so she planned to beat her one or two, but the cuckoo didn't say anything......

What a clever and eloquent mouth, he dares to reverse black and white!

Lu Yunlan sneered in her heart, if it weren't for what happened in her previous life, she would never have imagined that Xue Lan would dare to beat her with red mouth and white teeth.

"Oh?" The girl in blue pretended to be surprised, "But the cuckoo said that she found out that you had sneaked into my house." ”

Xue Lan is still vibrating, "Miss, the slave maid was wronged by the cuckoo, if the young lady doesn't believe it, the slave maid has her own evidence to prove her innocence!" ”
