Chapter 179: Waking Up from a Dream (Part II)

Wen Yi generously met Wen Hui's gaze, and her gaze was calm. She is not only explaining the truth, but also excusing the latter, and more importantly, a reminder.

No one knows what happened that day, why did Zheng Lijun blame Wen Hui? is so merciless. From the memory of her previous life, Wen Yi only knew that the person who finally became the crown princess was Zheng Lijun, and Wen Hui also escaped safely, and relied on the former's momentum, it can be seen that they have an excellent relationship, even if Wen Hui doesn't know everything Zheng Lijun does, she should have some understanding of her nature.

In this life, because of Wen Yi's intervention, Zheng Lijun's conspiracy against Du Yuanru failed. After the death of the only maid in the Lu Wang's Mansion who went wrong, this public case became a puzzle, if Wen Hui didn't say what she knew, then as long as Zheng Lijun didn't let go, no one would be able to ask about this matter clearly, and it would always be inference.

For the Zheng family, which has the support of Concubine Zheng and His Royal Highness the Third Prince of the future emperor, inference is not enough. In order to dispel the arrogance of the Zheng family and save the Gu family from harm, Wen Yi had to pry open Wen Hui's mouth in front of the envoy of the Lu Wangfu. Although she knows that Wen Hui and Zheng Lijun have been close friends for many years, but when things come to this point, shouldn't the other party still have delusions about this so-called close friend?

Wen Hui just stared at Wen Yi and Jiang Yao, with a little shock in her eyes, and more dazed: "Is it true?" Lijun she ...... She had that look on her face at the time? I didn't see it...... I'm nothing more than ...... with her It's just ......," she bit her lip, her eyes reddened, "just a joke and gossip...... "how could she tell the truth?" However, it was really not a big deal, and Zheng Lijun had no reason to annoy her because of what she said......

Seeing her react like this, the people in Luwangfu didn't say anything, and Jiang Shi was anxious first: "Hui'er, think about it again, you have always been a rectum, and you are also familiar with Miss Zheng's family, is it a moment of negligence, mistaken etiquette, and I don't know if you annoy people?" Think about it," Old Madam Yu glanced at her, then at Wen Hui, her whole face gloomy.

Wen Yi sighed in her heart, Wen Hui didn't open her mind, and she couldn't help it, if she continued to ask, she was afraid that if the truth was not asked, the people in Luwangfu would be suspicious first. She had no choice but to continue to push the topic forward: "Since the sixth sister said that it was just gossip, it probably wasn't a big deal, right?" Miss Zheng was annoyed at the time, but when we met her again, she took the initiative to talk to our sisters, and the sixth sister was not with us when she was enjoying the flowers in the plum forest, so Miss Zheng came to talk to us about family life. She turned her head to look at Jiang Yao and said with a smile, "Sister Yao was also there at the time, am I right?" ”

Jiang Yao chuckled and nodded: "That's true." Sister Zheng paused for ...... at the time, "Seeing that my cousin's girl was not there, she also asked me how many girls from the Shilang Mansion followed, but unfortunately I didn't bring anyone that day, but the fifth sister brought two people, and Cui Yu was sent by my aunt to my cousin." Wen Yi said with a smile: "The sixth sister is used to going out with the snow to find plums on weekdays, Miss Zheng doesn't see them, and it is common to ask a few more words. I was thinking at the time, although Miss Zheng seemed to be annoyed with the sixth sister before, in fact, she was still very concerned about the sixth sister, and she didn't mean to be alive, otherwise, how could she pay attention to whether the people around the sixth sister were honest and acted safely, whether they were used to in Beijing, or they had just brought them from their hometown. Besides, before the tea party began, I don't know who was angry when the sixth sister sat down, and it was Miss Zheng who comforted her. ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone present became a little subtle, and their eyes involuntarily turned to Cui Yu standing in the corner. The latter cringed a little, and lowered his head a little.

In the past few days, she has been transferred from the eldest lady Jiang to the courtyard of the old lady, let alone leaving the house, she can't even go out of the courtyard door. Old Madam Yu also spoke, unless she got her own approval, no one in the Manchu Mansion would pay attention to her, even if it was the eldest lord and the eldest lady, she was no exception, no matter how stupid she was, she also knew that there was something wrong with the errand she received in the Lu Wang's Mansion, and she had been recalling the situation over and over again in the past few days, and even remembered the details clearly. She had the heart to say it at this moment, but she remembered that her master had not commanded her, so she kept silent and just stood with her hands tied.

Pinqi and others from Luwangfu saw it in their eyes and were quite appreciative. The big girl next to Wen Hui, they have already inquired in the past few days, although they are smart, they are also a little too clever, and when they meet their own young lady and others, they will also help, they are really young and vigorous, and they don't know how to admonish the little master. The girl named Cuiyu in front of her is really honest and safe, and she won't make her own decisions, no wonder Mrs. Gu Jiang will specially send her out with her daughter.

Wen Hui heard the details of this matter for the first time, her eyes changed, and she asked urgently: "Is this true?" That's what Lijun asked at the time? She was a little uneasy in her heart, Zheng Lijun asked a little too carefully, which was very different from her usual temperament. She is actually not close to Cui Yu, but because she can often see her at her mother's place, she is quite familiar. If it weren't for the fact that her girl didn't go with her that day, and Zheng Lijun named Cuiyu's name again, she wouldn't have sent the latter to do something, maybe she would rather find a better friendship and double happiness

After receiving Wen Yi and Jiang Yao's affirmative answers, Wen Hui's face finally showed a little panic, and she hurriedly said, "I'...... I...... At the beginning of the tea party, Lijun told me that one of her girls was unwell and couldn't wait, and she didn't want to let people know the joke, so I sent someone to her house to bring a letter and send two more girls over. She called Cui Yu's name at that time, and I didn't think much about it, so I called a maid in the palace to carry a letter and go out......"

Pinqi raised her eyebrows and asked gently, "May I ask Miss Gu Liu, how did you choose that maid at that time?" ”

Wen Hui was dumbfounded, and was silent for a while before she said: "I saw her standing in front of me, so I ......" bit her lip, "When I went to look for Lijun, she was talking to Lijun, and then I went to sit with my sisters, and this maid guided me all the way...... I didn't recognize her......" After speaking, her face turned a little pale, her body shook slightly, and her hand supported the coffee table behind her before she stood firmly.

Wen Yi's eyebrows jumped heavily, and she secretly glanced at Pinqi, and saw that she exchanged a few glances with the two mothers-in-law, with annoyance between her eyebrows, but she was also a little clear, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the matter of this palace maid is clearly explained, it will be easy to handle later.

Old Madam Yu asked Cui Yu: "Later, you received a message from Miss Six outside?" What did the people of the palace say? Did you leave right then? Who saw it? ”

Cui Yu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, bowed her head and told the details of what had been sorted out in her mind these days. When she heard the maid's words, there were still a few companions around, and a few maids and daughters-in-law from other families were present, she remembered the names and identities of several of them, and explained them one by one, and a mother-in-law of Luwang's Mansion took out a piece of paper and wrote it down. Next, when she went out, she met someone, and after she went to Zheng's house, she saw whom, she made it clear and clear. After the woman finished recording them one by one, she turned back to her companions and said, "When this maid left the palace, many people did see it, and the porter in the palace also reported it. Only the Zheng family said that it was a mother-in-law. Since she said that she also saw the sedan chairs of the two officials on the road, as well as the official errand, it would be clear to turn around and ask someone to go to Jingzhao Mansion to ask. Pinqi and the others nodded.

The facts on Cui Yu's side are clear, and then it will be Wen Yi's turn. She recalled the experience after the tea party, and asked Jiang Yao to confirm, there was nothing troublesome, even after breaking up with Jiang Yao and Lin Meier, she met Wen Hui and Zheng Lijun and others on the road, and said that she changed to the middle road in order to avoid it, and finally smiled: "Coincidentally, I took that road to avoid people, but I didn't expect the six sisters to take that road too, I heard that one of the people who was originally traveling with me was going to return from Meilin along the same road, but it annoyed Miss Zheng, she took a step first, and the others would follow." As a result, unfortunately, I actually met a male guest sneaking in in the mezzanine, and there was a quarrel between the people on both sides. ”

Pinqi's expression was a little unfathomable, and she glanced at Wen Hui. Wen Hui's face was even paler, and her hands were trembling: "Lijun was walking in front at that time...... We didn't even notice it, so we followed her...... Later, she said that she wanted to take a shortcut, but the young ladies of the Zhuang Ling family were not happy, and she was also angry...... The third prince has always favored her, so he did what she wanted, and it was difficult for others to say anything...... She also said on the way, there is a room to rest in that road, if we are really tired, we can go there to sit and ...... "biting my lip," the bastard boy surnamed Zhou originally took people away, and it was Lijun who saw their backs with sharp eyes and shouted loudly, so we went to ask them why they trespassed into the backyard of the palace...... The young ladies of the Zhuang Ling family later complained that it was because she insisted on taking the middle road that she called a bastard to look at it, but Lijun's face was very ugly at that time, and she didn't pay attention to them......"

At this point, it's pretty clear. Although there is no evidence or physical evidence to confirm that Zheng Lijun is the mastermind behind the scenes, this trap is actually not perfect, and there are definitely many flaws. Next is the Lu Wangfu's own business.

Pinqi gave the two mothers-in-law a look, and one of the mothers-in-law smiled and said, "In this way, things are really coincidental." The other person took the pen and paper, skipped Wen Hui, but saluted Wen Yi: "Thank you Miss Nine for informing me, Miss Nine has a good memory and can explain everything clearly and clearly." Wen Yi didn't look at the expression on Wen Hui's face, but smiled and said, "Actually, although I didn't dare to tell anyone afterwards, I also thought back and forth in my heart." At this time, I only hope to do a little bit of my part, not only for the innocence of our Gu family, but also for the face of the court and the palace. After all, this kind of thing...... It's appalling. If it weren't for the coincidence, maybe my uncle's family would have been framed inexplicably. ”

Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't understand what they said. Next, the farewell of the farewell, the farewell of the send-off. After the people from the Luwang Mansion left, the Jiang family sent Jiang Yao away, and said to Wen Yi with a grateful face: "Good boy, if it weren't for you, the eldest aunt really doesn't know what to do, your sixth sister almost fell into a place of no return" Wen Yi just smiled faintly and said: "They are all daughters of the Gu family, if one person's reputation is damaged, the others will also be affected." The niece is just to maintain the family's name and do her duty as a family. ”

Old Madam Yu's face sank, coughed lightly, and glared at Wen Hui: "Now you are clear?" That Zheng Lijun is vicious, and you treat her as a close friend in vain, even if we all tell you that she is not a good person, you still do everything possible to send her a letter, and now you can recognize her true colors, right? Let me tell you, you give me an honest stay at home, and wait for the beginning of spring next year, when the marriage between several princes and Wang Shizi is decided, you will do your affairs with Dongning, you quickly put away all the careful thoughts that should not be there for me, if you dare to act rashly, our Gu family will not lack your daughter."

Wen Hui shivered, suddenly sat down on the ground, and cried loudly: "I don't know...... I do not know...... Why would she do that? I'm so good to her...... I've been playing with her since I was a child...... Attend classes together...... Learn to ride and shoot together...... Why did she hurt me......" cried very sadly.

Jiang Shi was distressed, and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort: "Good Hui'er, this time we didn't watch out, we didn't recognize her femme fatale, and we won't be fooled again in the future." Don't cry, my mother knows you're sad, go back to sleep, and Ming'er will be fine. Don't you want to go to Dabaoguo Temple to worship the Buddha? The plum garden there is excellent, stronger than that of the Luwang Mansion, and when you take care of your body, my mother will accompany you, and you can eat vegetarian food there if you want......"

She comforted gently, and Wen Hui gradually collected her tears, but her expression was still sad. Wen Yi didn't say anything, and saw that the old lady Yu didn't speak, so she kept standing on the side with cold eyes and watching, and when Wen Hui finally put away her tears, the old lady Yu lightly ordered her to go back to the room, but left Jiang to speak.

Wen Yi sent Wen Hui out, still thinking about Liu Gu's who had not yet arrived, but she was taken aback by Wen Hui's wrist: "Sixth sister, what's wrong with you?" ”

Wen Hui's face turned white, but her eyes were a little terrifying. She stared straight at Wen Yi and asked, "I haven't offended her...... At that time, on the way, I only told her one thing. If there was anything that annoyed her, it was only then, but ...... Why is she annoying me? ”

Wen Yi was a little puzzled, but she just told her to catch it painfully, so she said angrily: "I don't even know my sister, how can I know?" If my sister can figure it out, she can be more vigilant in the future, and don't fall for her plot again. ”

Wen Hui laughed miserably, let go of her hand, and was stunned again: "She was only one step away from the most honorable position of the woman in the world, even if she was slightly lowered by one level, others could not compare to her, what was she not satisfied with?" But they gave birth to thoughts that should not be...... I was born, and I was just delusional, I have been friends with her for many years, so what if she promised me? Is it better than having someone else take that place? Why...... Would she rather harm me than make me happy? Could it be that I have been in love with her since childhood...... Is it that thin...... She actually hates me like this, and wants to make me worse than death from now on......" After a pause, there was an indescribable desolation in her words, "I regard her as a best friend, but she regards me as something......

She staggered out under her feet, and the thin Treading Snow Xunmei hurriedly followed. Wen Yi looked at her back and frowned, as if she understood something in an instant.
