Chapter 123: Affection Is Always (II)

After Xue Mingrui finished talking with his cronies, Zhu Er hurriedly entered the house to report carefully, and made it clear what happened to Shuntianfu in the Tao family and how Tao Zhengan replied to Shuntianfu. (Niu Wen ~ Net)

Zhu Er looked at Xue Mingrui's face, "If it is according to the meaning of Shun Tianfu, the master of the in-laws has harmed his own flesh and blood with his own hands, how can this matter be nonsense." ”

Xue Mingrui said: "How did the fifth miss die?" ”

Zhu Er didn't dare to talk nonsense, "It's a sudden illness, and I made trouble for a while back then, I'm afraid it will pass on." Buried in mass graves, probably for fear of passing it on to others. "If the affairs of the young lady's family are not good, where will there be his good fruit to eat. Besides, Hou Ye didn't let people inquire about these things easily, but when he talked about it today, he knew that it was not ordinary, and he didn't dare to have it all in one go.

"And the peasant woman. It's also strange that her daughter's body has not been accounted for until now, the meaning of Shuntianfu, if this body can't be found, I'm afraid this case will be closed. When I went, the peasant woman wept for a while in front of the yamen, and then went back to rest. ”

The case of her biological daughter was finally reported to the yamen who was willing to open the coffin for an autopsy, but the body could not be found for a while, and the peasant woman did not go to the mass grave to look for it, but "cried" in front of the yamen for a while, and it was over.

Xue Mingrui didn't speak, and Zhu Er hurriedly said: "I have already asked people to follow the peasant woman, and I will go back and forth to the marquis as soon as there is news." ”

Xue Mingrui nodded, and Zhu Er bowed down again.

Xue Mingrui looked at the official document for a while, and Rong Hua's frowning and biting lip expression last night came to him again. Although she had spoken intermittently in her dreams, he had no way of knowing what kind of dreams she had had.

Rong Chuan came back from the military department, drank a big bowl of tea when he entered the house, and then talked in a series of words, without noticing Xue Mingrui's expression, "I don't know when you read so many official documents." The military department is so much about it, unless it's time for you to investigate, it's so complicated, I don't know which bastard is stumbling over you, you don't want me to ask, if you let me know, I don't care who he is, first find out and beat him half to death, he dares to sue me, but I don't know if it is in my hands again. As he spoke, he talked about the transfer of the main official positions of the Ministry of War in recent years, "I have a tight grip this time, I see what tricks they can play, and what else is there in the court that they can't reach?" On the outside, it is said that he is a harmonious prince, and daring to be affectionate is how much benefit he can get from him. ”

"No wonder we're deserted." After a pause, "Prince Zhuang has been sick at home for two days, right?" Every day when I pass by his mansion, I see people coming and going in front of the door, and I am afraid that sixty percent of the Beijing officials will have to visit. ”

"Third brother, do you think I should also buy a gift and send it?"

After Rong Chuan finished speaking, he went to see Xue Mingrui.

Xue Mingrui raised his head and was slightly distracted, and asked Rong Chuan, "What?" ”

Rong Chuan was stunned this time, "I mean......" Rong Chuan looked at Xue Mingrui carefully, he rarely encountered this kind of situation, usually he said the last sentence, and Xue Mingrui guessed the following.

Rong Chuan was about to say it again, but Xue Mingrui had already come back to his senses, "Give a regular gift, you don't need anything else." ”

Rong Chuan nodded.

Xue Mingrui said again: "Last time, I asked Mr. Wu to be Mingzhe's Xixi, and I asked Mr. Wu to meet Mingzhe in the past few days, and by the way, I told Mr. Wu that the younger brother of the young lady also wanted to ask him to teach him together." ”

Rong Chuan was slightly stunned, a little surprised, and immediately agreed, "Others may not be, Mr. Wu will definitely agree to the third brother's matter, and besides, it is the younger brother of the sister-in-law, and he is not an outsider." ”

Xue Mingrui said to Rong Chuan that he didn't mention anything else.

……

Rong Hua changed into a Chinese costume and followed Mrs. Xue into the palace together, and Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Xue sent out the hanging flower door.

Looking at Rong Hua with a colorful crown, Mrs. Xue couldn't help but feel a little envious in her heart, the gorgeous clothes worn by Mrs. Xue were particularly beautiful, with snow-white skin, big eyes, and full red lips, which made people unable to take their eyes off.

Rong Hua helped the old lady into the car, turned around and said goodbye to Mrs. Xue and the second wife, and then entered the carriage.

When the carriage moved forward, Mrs. Xue and the second wife returned to the garden.

The two of them talked about homely things while walking. Mrs. Xue doesn't like to talk, and she can only hear the laughter of the second wife all over the garden, "Such a good thing, but I can't look forward to it, I look at it with envy." ”

Mrs. Xue said: "It's all thanks to the old lady." ”

Second Mrs. Xue glanced at Mrs. Xue and said with a smile: "I think the old lady likes Rong Hua very much, who has the old lady brought into the palace to meet the queen mother for so many years?" ”

Who in the palace has been ordered to be eligible to enter the palace?

The second wife's words flickered, and Mrs. Xue frowned.

Sure enough, the second wife talked about her in the next sentence.

"Even if it's a sister-in-law, there has never been such a thing, the old lady also carefully selected two gifts, for fear that the queen mother will not be happy, you must know that the first time you enter the palace is to be thoughtful, so as to leave a good impression on Rong Hua," said the second wife and smiled when she lifted the veil on her lips, "I see that Rong Hua has not been married for a long time, but he compares everyone else." The old lady often said in my ear that Rong Hua is a good boy who knows books and is courteous, and she chats with Rong Hua more on weekdays, and she likes it in her heart. The second wife squinted her eyes and looked at Mrs. Xue.

The expression on Mrs. Xue's face stiffened slightly.

The second wife said again: "If you want me to see, this is a good thing." He paused deliberately, and the smile on his face deliberately became a little incongruous, "The old lady's house is full of good things, and the old lady gave Rong Hua a pair of tourmaline earrings, which are also engraved with the pattern of many sons and many blessings, how delicate and delicate, don't say it's children, I will be tempted to see it." ”

How could Mrs. Xue not understand the meaning of these words. The second brother and sister mean that Rong Hua is close to the old lady because of the good things in the old lady's house, and she doesn't talk much in the house all day long, but she hates these gossips.

Seeing that Mrs. Xue's face changed, the second wife immediately continued: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, Rong Hua is a smart child who knows how to advance and retreat, and nothing will happen." ”

On the surface, it seems to be saying that he entered the palace this time, but it reveals another layer of meaning. Although Rong Hua is the daughter-in-law of the big house, she is extremely smart, how can she not weigh which side it would be better to get closer to. Second Mrs. Xue smiled very deeply, but in just a few words, she explained two meanings.

The first is that Mrs. Xue is a person who can't even keep her daughter-in-law, and the second is that Rong Hua, a concubine, only knows how to climb and be rich.

Mrs. Xue's face really couldn't hold it, and Mrs. Xue's smile became even more proud.

"Rong Hua, this kid has nothing in his heart, he is a good boy who is polite and thoughtful, no matter who he is, he will like it. Mingrui is busy on weekdays, and it is not enough to be filial by the old lady's side, and Rong Hua often goes to the old lady's side to do more filial piety for Mingrui. ”

Unexpectedly, he would say such a sentence.

The second wife was stunned.

Mrs. Xue said lightly: "The pair of earrings Rong Hua gave by the old lady also showed me, they are very beautiful." ”

Second Mrs. Xue glanced at Mrs. Xue, as if Mrs. Xue's performance was unexpected, paused, and then said after a while: "I'll just say, there is nothing bad in the old lady." ”

Mrs. Xue didn't say anything else, and separated from the second wife in front of the moon gate.

Gu's mother, who was beside Mrs. Xue, stepped forward and said, "Madam, what the young lady said is right, so it seems that you should listen to the young lady's words." ”

Mrs. Xue still had a cold face, "That being said, if she is so close to the old lady, Rui'er will also be unhappy, and besides, who the old lady is, it is hard to guarantee that she will not be taken advantage of one day." She said that just now, not entirely because of what Rong Hua said in her room this morning, but also because she was angry that her second brother and sister couldn't talk like that.

Gu's mother smiled: "I think the young lady is thoughtful, and the young lady should listen to what the young lady has to say." ”

Mrs. Xue said: "When she comes back from the palace, I will let her speak clearly." ”

Gu's mother nodded and smiled, maybe with the young lady, the situation of the big house will gradually get better.

……

Rong Hua sat in the car, and Old Madam Xue kindly shook Rong Hua's hand, "Don't be nervous, the Queen Mother and the Imperial Concubine are all excellent, and you will definitely like it when you see you." ”

Rong Hua smiled and nodded, "It's always the first time to enter the palace, and I can't help but feel a little panicked, but fortunately, there is an old lady by my side." ”

The old lady patted Rong Hua's hand, "Although there are a lot of rules in the palace, we have said it from beginning to end today, we will definitely not do anything wrong, as long as you follow me, I will mention you if there is anything." The Queen Mother won't say much to you when you meet for the first time, and you shouldn't be afraid of saying something wrong. ”

Rong Hua smiled and nodded.

The old lady also pursed her lips and smiled, this child was a little different from the first time she met her at the Xue family. A pair of eyes are very bright, and her gestures are full of intelligence and cleverness, and she doesn't need to say anything to her twice. She likes smart children, Ming Rui was much smarter than ordinary children when she was a child, she always took Ming Rui with her, just wanted to raise Ming Rui with her own hands, and the situation that her ancestors and grandchildren got along with her before returned to the old lady's mind, if it wasn't for something like that......

The old lady sighed, and went to see Rong Hua again, this child is different from the eldest daughter-in-law, maybe there will be a chance in the future......

The old lady was thinking that the carriage had stopped.

……

Tao Mansion, the eldest lady was lying on the bed and heard Chen's mother come back and say: "The slave maid went to the Hou Mansion, and Jinxiu said that the eighth aunt and grandmother went to the palace with Mrs. Xue early in the morning. ”

The eldest lady frowned, trying to stand up, but her arm was just stretched and her face turned pale with pain.

Chen's mother hurriedly stepped forward to serve, "Mrs. still lie down and rest, she can't move yet." ”

The eldest lady took a few breaths, "All of them are unreliable, what is our family like now, Shuhua and Ronghua have gone back, and there is no news at all." ”

Chen's mother said, "Don't worry, madam, maybe the eldest lady will come back with a letter in a while." As soon as the words fell, the little guy next to the eldest master came back to pass the word.

The little guy entered the house and hurriedly knelt down, "Madam, the master was called to Shuntianfu to see the evidence." ”

The eldest lady was anxious, "What evidence?" ”

The little guy replied, "That's right...... There is a seal by the side of Miss Five. ”

Ahhhh

There are too many people in Union Hospital, there are too many ticket sellers, and the first place is not hung up to the expert number, but fortunately, I found a doctor to see it is also very good, thank you for helping me come up with ideas, everyone is right, I would rather queue up for special needs, and I will not buy a number.
