The next day, when the sky was slightly bright, a carriage stopped in front of Rong Ruo's private house, Shen Wan came up wearing plain clothes and carrying a basket, and Cao Yin's wife Li was already sitting in it, and said sadly: "Poor girl." ”

Shen Wan bowed and said, "I'm sorry for your trouble." ”

"It's not troublesome, it's just that you pretended to be my girl." Li patiently explained to her, "We only have half an hour, and the people from Nalan Mansion will come at any time, so we have to leave early." ”

Shen Wan agreed, listening to the sound of horses' hooves and wheels, and suddenly said, "How is the young lady?" ”

"Poor, the child in the belly doesn't know if she can keep it, according to the rules, she can't touch Rong Ruo's afterlife, she can't bear to ask for death and life, I went to mourn that day, she held her stomach and responded in front of people, although she looked pitiful, but it was very decent and solemn." Li said, and couldn't help but reddened the corners of his eyes, "It's really a sin." ”

The carriage was getting farther and farther away, the sky was getting brighter and brighter, the sun was still strong at the end of June, and in the deep palace, Lan Qi was in a hurry to go to Cining Palace when it was not so hot earlier. A few days ago, she took care of the fourth elder brother, and she came to serve the queen mother non-stop, and now she doesn't have to take care of the children, and she can pounce on Cining Palace wholeheartedly, Su Mala persuaded her to take care of her body first, Lan Qi said very frankly: "Be busy, I don't have time to think nonsense, otherwise calm down, my mind will be full of Yinzuo." ”

A group of people walked to Cining Palace, although the sky was bright, the hour was still early, there was no one on the road, and only halfway to see a few people in front of them, Lan Qi didn't look at anyone carefully, only heard the people next to him say: "It's a noble person of Juezen." ”

Lan Qi raised his head slightly, and saw that the people there had quickened their pace, and sure enough, it was Jue Chan who had brought Xianghe and a few people to him, and saluted respectfully. I haven't seen her for a few days, Lan Qi's mind is on Yinzhen these days, and she has forgotten Nalan Rongruo's death completely, and when she saw Juechan at this time, she suddenly remembered it, but seeing that her complexion was still indifferent, she couldn't help but feel relieved for her.

Lan Qi asked politely, "So early, where are you going?" ”

Jue Chan responded: "The concubine's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and it is no longer convenient to go out, so let the concubine go to Ningshou Palace to ask for peace." ”

"The Queen Mother also gets up early every day, and she should have gotten up at this time." Lan Qi responded, and didn't say much, so she took Huanchun's hand and continued to move forward, Juechan waited on the side, seeing Concubine De dangling in front of her, she suddenly asked, "Niangniang, can you ......?"

Lan Qi turned to look at her: "What's the matter?" ”

At this moment, outside the tomb of the Nalan family, the Li family and Shen Wan slowly walked out, Shen Wan's eyes and nose were red and he was silent, the Li family kept sighing that fate made people, and suddenly the girl next to him ran to say that someone from the Nalan family was coming, and the Li family hurriedly asked Shen Wan to hide in the carriage. Sure enough, it didn't take long for a carriage to come over there, and everyone helped the pot-bellied young lady to get out of the car.

Accompanying the young lady was Rong Ruo's side room Yan, she was much older than the young lady, and now the two supported each other like sisters, Li greeted each other, greeted each other, and the young lady thanked: "Why is my sister-in-law here?" ”

Li could only say nonsense casually: "I dreamed of Brother Nalan last night, and asked me to ask for a sip of wine, I felt uncomfortable, and I must bring wine to see him." ”

The young lady was grateful: "Rong Ruo and Brother Cao are brothers and sisters, no wonder they ask their sister-in-law for wine and food, he has been gone for so many days, I have never seen him in my dreams." ”

These words, Shen Wan, who was hiding in the carriage, heard them very clearly, the young lady said that she didn't dream of Rong Ruo, and so did Shen Wan, she always wanted to see her again in her dreams, she wanted to tell Rong Ruo that she didn't regret having a fight with him, she wanted to tell Rong Ruo that she would live well, but Rong Ruo didn't come to see her, nor did she go to see his wife and concubine, Shen Wan couldn't help but think: What about her?

This one of her naturally refers to her in the palace, since following Rong Ruo, Shen Wan has always known that he has that person in his heart, and even more has given it to her, I am afraid that the moment his life disappears, Rong Ruo still only thinks about that person in his heart, and he is even more happy that everyone is waiting for him to dream and see each other, but he just went to her dream.

Li quickly boarded the car and smiled awkwardly at Shen Wan, the carriage quickly left the cemetery, and Li said on the road: "They are now orphans and widows, and they don't know who will inherit the Nalan family in the future." Lord Mingzhu and Mrs. Mingzhu were better when they were there, if they went west one day, the young lady and their life might not be better, and the youngest sons and daughters-in-law in the family were all powerful characters. ”

But Shen Wan didn't listen to a word, until Li Shi said to her: "Don't worry, sometimes I will come to the door to see if the child is okay for you, and it is convenient to bring you a letter." ”

Shen Wan thanked her, and soon returned to the private house, the things at home have been packed, she is going to leave Beijing tomorrow, Li sent her to the carriage, took out a few silver tickets from her arms and stuffed them to her, and said: "The national exchange, you can take it to Jiangnan with peace of mind, and use it at all times." I don't have anything to give you, Rong Ruo and my brother-in-law, we should take care of you for him, don't you feel that you can't save face, if you want to live, how can you do it without money? ”

Without waiting for Shen Wan to refuse, Li Shi was afraid that she would come back, so he immediately turned around and boarded the car, and said in the car: "Ming'er, I won't come to see you off, sister, we will have a date later." ”

The carriage left, Shen Wan pinched the silver ticket in her hand and stood still, and the girl at home came to urge her to go in, and she came back to her senses. After putting away the silver ticket, she saw what else she hadn't packed up, and called the people who were still left behind with her, asked them where they wanted to go, and gave them as much money as possible, and finally left only a mother and daughter willing to follow her, they were also orphans and widows at home, and there was nowhere to live without Shen Wan.

In the afternoon, Cao Yin sent someone to confirm with Shen Wan the time of the carriage tomorrow morning, and then sent those people away, and someone came in front of the house, it seemed that it was the first time to come back to this place, and asked all the way: "Is this the house of Lord Nalan?" ”

Shen Wan saw that it was a stranger, and now there was no male servant in the house, so he couldn't help but keep some distance, but after the visitor confirmed that it was Shen Wan's private house, he put the bag he was carrying with both hands, and just said: "My master asked the small one to bring it, you can keep it." ”

Shen Wan frowned, and naturally asked, "Which one is your master?" ”

"The master said that Miss Shen doesn't need to ask, you just keep these things, it's hard to go to Jiangnan all the way, please take care of yourself more." The visitor said these words politely, and when he saw that Shen Wan and the people around him were far away, they didn't come to take it, so they simply put it on the ground, and without waiting for Shen Wan to do anything, he turned around and left.

Only waited for the man to go far away, the girl went to close the door, picked up the bag and held it to Shen Wan, a few people returned to the house, one by one things turned out, it was a stack of thick small silver tickets, and scattered silver, the woman who was the mother on the side said: "These scattered silver, enough for us to spend on the road, this person is really thoughtful, although the silver ticket is valuable, it is not easy to use on the road, it must be our uncle's former friend, it is really difficult to worry about them." ”

I don't know why, Shen Wan feels unsure, if it is Rong Ruo's old friend, he can report his name, and Shen Wan has not seen those sons and brothers with Rong Ruo, and there are many people who come to the private house for a small gathering, why do you want to help yourself in such a unassuming way? Unprovoked will think of that person in his heart, but he thinks it is unlikely, I heard that she is not happy in the palace, how to find someone to send these things to himself?

In a daze, the middle-aged woman counted the silver tickets and exclaimed: "Girl, there are 30,000 taels of silver tickets here, which noble person is so kind?" This noble person is not another nobleman, but these two words pierced Shen Wan's heart, and he sat aside in a daze, unable to say anything.

In the palace, when Lan Qi came back from Cining Palace, she heard that the matter had been done, and Huanchun and the others didn't know what the master was doing, but they just sent someone to her mother's house to send a letter, thinking that the mother was reporting safety to her father and mother, telling them that she had cheered up, how would they know that Concubine De would actually help the noble Juechan send money to Shen Wan.

30,000 taels of silver tickets, was taken out by Jue Chan, those broken silver, it is estimated that it is the mind of Lan Qi's family, Lan Qi was very surprised how a little noble man could take out 30,000 taels of silver tickets, Jue Chan smiled bitterly at the time: "The concubine followed the concubine Niangniang, she really didn't worry about food and clothing, the concubine Niangniang's family often sent silver in, Niangniang she casually rewarded the concubine with some, and the silver ticket was also saved one by one, and the concubine had nowhere to spend, so she saved it over the years." ”

At that time, Lan Qi wanted to refuse, but it can be seen that Jue Chan did not force it, and his expression and words were not intense, but he was moved, took the silver ticket and agreed, and then used the excuse of asking Huanchun to send someone to send a letter to his home, and asked Ama to send the money to Shen Wan, and then what happened in the future, she would not care and didn't care, it should have ended a long time ago.

Two days later, Lan Qi met Juechan again on the palace road, at this time Shen Wan had long been away from the capital, Juechan thanked Concubine De Niangniang for helping her fulfill her wish, and when they were about to separate, Juechan suddenly said: "Niangniang, you must be careful in everything in the palace in the future, and the food used by the princesses of Brother Brother must be more careful." ”

Lan Qi's heart tightened, but after saying this, the Jue Chan clan hurriedly walked away, but let her stand on the palace road, Huanchun and a few people saw the master in a daze, and asked her what was wrong, only to hear her say in a daze: "Why didn't the emperor tell me, who is the murderer?" Why not kill them? ”

Huanchun secretly screamed in his heart, these days people who are looking at the spirits are up, but they can't drill the horns like this, and they don't dare to persuade indiscriminately, first send her family to Cining Palace, and then secretly talk to Su Mala's mother, and grandma sighed: "It's better to let the mother scatter her heart." ”

Coincidentally, on this day, the emperor came over to accompany his grandmother to lunch, saying that the summer heat did not subside this year, and he wanted to invite his grandmother to Yingtai to recuperate, but the Empress Dowager shirked and said that she didn't want to ride in the car and bumpy in the car, and she was very good in the palace, and she pushed Lan Qi out: "You two go, come back after autumn, go openly, I see who dares to care?" ”

Xuan Ye smiled and nodded, he knew in his heart that the imperial grandmother would not go out, he just wanted to wait for the imperial grandmother to say that he would take Lan Qi out for a while, and readily agreed: "Yingtai is ready, I will leave tomorrow." ”
