041 Poisoned Arrow
The sky gradually darkened, and a few maids lit the hexagonal glazed palace lamp.
"It's cool, the county lord should go to the house first." Yingluo persuaded and draped the thin garment in her hand over her shoulders.
"The princess said that the county lord has entertained guests for a long time, but I am afraid that she is also a little tired, so I specially explained that you don't need to go over to accompany her, just eat directly in Qinglian Residence." Rulan came over and explained kindly and warmly.
Wang Linzhi only nodded slightly, but Coral smiled and thanked her, "It's hard for my sister to come over on purpose, sit down slightly, have a cup of tea and then leave." β
Rulan glanced at Wang Linzhi, saw that she didn't have any displeasure, hurriedly bent her knees to thank her, and then followed Sango.
Wang Linzhi sat in front of the lamp and continued to think about what had just happened.
She has a short temper and a bad personality, Emperor Changsheng won Cheng Jingshu just because she painted and made her the county lord, which seems a little incredible when you think about it, but it is also inevitable.
Because his grandfather and father not only did not dislike him as in-laws at the end of Emperor Changsheng's life, but also gave him a lot of financial support and material help. When he staged a coup d'Γ©tat, not only did his grandfather and father raise troops to follow, but also her aunt Empress Wang joined in and personally captured Empress Wei and Princess Ping'an.
When my aunt became the queen, she became even more impeccable, and no one in the harem would ever say that she was bad. Her only drawback is that she gave her true heart to Emperor Changsheng, an emperor who only dotes on her cousin.
Now he wants to correct his cousin's name, but he is only abolished in the name of not having a son-in-law, and he can't get the support of hundreds of officials and people all over the world.
In addition, Princess Fengxiang was slapped in the face by her in Qingning Palace, which made the Wu mother and daughter lose their minds all of a sudden, and suddenly revealed their ambitions that they usually hid very well.
The emperor really wants to spoil Concubine Wu Hui, but he definitely doesn't want to raise a daughter like Princess Changle, so he doesn't want his queen to become another Empress Dowager Wu in the future. In order to achieve another balance, he had to carry the Wang family to block the mouths of Youyou. And her being named the county lord was the final result of Emperor Changsheng's weighing of the pros and cons.
Several princes pay attention to her family affairs, and what they value is the queen behind her.
In this life, she wants to protect her family and doesn't want to be anyone's pawn anymore!
Amber had already brought the little maids to fetch dinner.
There are meat, vegetarian and soup, everything is her favorite food, but Wang Linzhi only ate six minutes full with restraint, and did not move the staple food, and after eating, she stood on the wall for half an hour as before.
Wang Linzhi was standing, but her arms were vigorously making a climbing movement, and it didn't take long for her to gasp a little, and she lowered her sore arms, but after a pause, she began to repeat the previous movements again.
These methods were all learned from Mama Li in her previous life, and they were very effective, otherwise she would not have lost weight so quickly.
She is going to lose weight for another lap and refuses to go on a diet, after all, she is now like a jointing flower and plant, deliberately skipping meals or eating less, and then she will grow yellow and thin, and her body will definitely not be good if she lacks nutrition.
She needs to lose weight, but she needs a good body, so she can only restrain herself from eating those heavy tastes, greasy and sweets, and eat more vegetables.
"Tomorrow, send all the pearls sent by the queen to the silver building, and make a pair of colorful pearl curtains, if the pearls are not enough, buy some smaller ones, and the size of mung beans will be made." Wang Linzhi confessed.
Amber respectfully agreed, paused for a while, and then said, "I heard that pearl punching takes a lot of effort, and it will only take several months to string a string of curtains, and the most important thing is the manual fee, I am afraid that it will cost a lot of silver." β
Wang Linzhi nodded, "You go and inquire first, and then talk back." β
She remembered that at the end of the previous life, Concubine Wu Hui gave such a pair of pearl curtains to Empress Dowager Liu, but Empress Dowager Liu, who had not been very kind to Concubine Wu Hui, began to lift Concubine Wu Hui for the first time, and gradually Empress Dowager Liu's niece Concubine Liu Shufei also got along with Concubine Wu Hui, making the life of the originally unfavored Queen Wang more and more difficult. Later, Concubine Wu Hui was so sick that she was dying, and it was also Concubine Liu Shufei who proposed to find a Taoist priest for Concubine Wu Hui to exorcise evil spirits, but she didn't expect to find a puppet written on the birthday of Concubine Wu Hui and her previous child in the queen's palace, and the emperor was furious and directly abolished Queen Wang.
Not long after, her poor aunt died in the cold palace.
Later, she blocked Concubine Liu Shufei to question, but Concubine Liu Shufei smiled and said that she killed the queen herself.
She rushed up to be rude to Concubine Liu Shu, but was stopped by the second prince. Later, after many interrogations, the second prince finally asked from Concubine Liu Shu's mouth that the puppet was secretly hidden by Cheng Jingshu into the Qingning Palace, but at that time, she treated Cheng Jingshu better than her own sister, so she naturally refused to believe these words, anyway, she thought that the second prince helped Concubine Liu Shushu destroy her relationship with Cheng Jingshu.
It wasn't until later that she inadvertently found the secret letter between him and the Wu family in Lu Yangchun's study, and mentioned this matter during the period, so she ran to question Lu Yangchun, but she didn't expect him to admit happily, "The kind of person who is the queen is not suitable to be a queen at all, and if she dies, she will save yourself a burden to the Wang family." β
It wasn't until that time that she saw Lu Yangchun's true face and began to investigate this matter slowly, but unfortunately the people related to this matter had already been dealt with by Lu Zaochun, she didn't find anything, and she was ridiculed by Lu Wuniang and Lu Siniang every day, they laughed at her and didn't want to live with Lu Yangchun, so she made up such a reason.
Since God has let her come back again, she must take precautions and protect her family, and this string of pearl curtains is to prepare for this, "It doesn't matter if it takes a long time, just do it before the winter solstice." β
What she wants more than dazzling jewelry is the peace of these people who love her.
"As for the price line, if you don't understand, ask Mama Li for help."
The amber was written down one by one.
Wang Linzhi raised her head and saw Xiao Liu'er looking inside, looking panicked, Wang Linzhi had to take the initiative to ask her, "Is there something wrong?" β
"Gu ...... The second son, fainted, under the persimmon tree. Xiao Liu'er pointed to the southeast corner of the courtyard and frowned.
Frightened, she sat down on the ground with her legs limp, and Amber hurriedly helped her away.
Wang Linzhi had a bad premonition in her heart, and walked quickly in the direction pointed by Xiao Liu'er, Yingluo hurriedly carried the lantern, and Coral Agate also trotted over.
Before he arrived, he saw Gu Yue leaning softly on the persimmon tree, calling him but not answering, Yingluo brought the lamp closer, only to find that he was injured, his face was pale, his lips had turned purple, there was an arrow on his shoulder, and the clothes around the arrow had turned black.
Wang Linzhi suddenly realized that the arrow was poisonous, "Quick, help him to the house, and quickly invite Liu to come over."
