Chapter 148: A Former Lover Who Passed By

"Today is a good day."

Xiao Sulu stood in front of the window, looking at the peach blossoms that were blooming with a tilted head, and suddenly asked, "I heard that the dowry of General Shen's Mansion has sixteen?"

None of the maids beside him dared to speak, for fear of touching the scales.

Xiao Sulu sneered and turned her gaze to Cha'er on the side: "Look at you, you can say it."

"Yes!" Cha'er responded: "In order not to fall behind, the Guo family of Dongping Houfu temporarily added four dowries to the original twelve dowries when they went out, and only sent the bride out of the door after completing the sixteen lifts.

Cha'er briefly said the lively scene in Kyoto City today in a few words, and the proportion was very good, which would not displease the eldest princess and would not be untruthful.

When Xiao Sulu heard this, she suddenly showed a playful smile.

"It's interesting to have lovers marry someone else on the same day, passing by."

In the eyes of outsiders, it is just an interesting joke, but when it comes to the parties, it is an unforgettable miss.

"Regrets?"

Qin Guanming sat on the tall horse, and his eyes fell on the happy car passing by.

Inside, sitting was the woman he had put on the tip of his heart, and the woman he had ever dreamed of marrying home.

But today, he is marrying someone else, and she ...... I'm going to marry someone else.

The road was far away, the carriage did not stop, and the jujube red horse with a big red flower under him also strode forward with its head held high.

The distance between them, from far to near, after passing by, gradually drifted away.

He heard a voice in his heart, screaming at him.

"Regrets? Do you feel sorry? The woman you once wanted to have a thousand times will no longer belong to you after today, do you regret it?"

Qin Guanming gritted his teeth, he tried his best not to turn his head, and buried all his thoughts in the joy of the gongs and drums.

There was no need to answer, every inch of his skin, every nerve was shouting.

He regretted it, he was unwilling, but he ...... Powerless.

Inside the happy car, Shen Yajun gently lifted his hijab and lifted the sedan chair to a corner.

She saw a pair of black boots embroidered with mandarin ducks.

Her breath suffocated instantly, and her eyes couldn't help but slowly lift up, and she saw him dressed in a happy suit, as handsome as she had imagined.

There are many pictures that come to mind one after another, he used to like her so much.

He said that she was the kindest, loveliest and most unusual woman in the world.

He said it would be nice if they could all throw off the clan shackles and only each other.

But the General's Mansion is too different after all.

The Shen family, which holds one-third of the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, must not have anything to do with any prince at will, otherwise, once the Sacred Heart becomes suspicious, the entire Great General's Mansion will suffer an unjustified disaster.

Shen Yajun has understood this truth since she was a child, and she can't do anything to ignore the General's Mansion.

They are destined to be inseparable.

But she doesn't regret it.

Shen Yajun put down the curtain of the car, put the hijab on her head again, and folded her two slender jade hands on the phoenix robe on her knees, she thought, today is a good day.

also forget the unknown regret in her heart.

The two wedding banquets were set up in the Yongchang Marquis Mansion and the Shen General's Mansion respectively, and even the eunuchs who rushed out of the palace to give gifts appeared in pairs, sending them to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion on one side and the General General's Mansion on the other.

Qin Chaojiu wore a dark blue dress today, the gold thread at the collar shone in the sun, she stood in front of the door of General Shen's mansion, watching Shen Yajun's carriage go away all the way.

Only then did he come back to his senses and reluctantly bid farewell to the general's wife.

The general's wife is done

A gift: "With Princess Lao Beimu personally sending it off, our Yajun can have your close friend in the boudoir, which is really a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes."

"The general's wife stays, I have to go back to the Hou Mansion, and I won't stay in the General's Mansion to eat."

"Yes, you are heavy, slow down, and you have to be careful with many cold things at the banquet." The general's wife was much more difficult to say two words, and expressed her concern for Qin Chaojiu.

"I'll take notice." Qin Chaojiu was slightly stunned, then smiled and turned to leave.

Shen Ci drank a lot of stuffy wine today, and when he came out of the door drunk, he only saw the carriage of the Beimu Palace, which had already disappeared.

Leaving from the General's Mansion, the Qin Dynasty returned to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion belatedly.

It is also a coincidence that there are many people who came to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion to drink wine with the Qin Dynasty for a long time, and they all came from the General's Mansion.

Qin Jiang didn't dare to get angry, and still greeted every guest with a smile.

After all, the status of the Great General's Mansion is not comparable to that of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, which can't even produce a military general.

"Asahyu, you...... You're here, sit down, sit down."

As soon as she came in, Bai Wan showed a look of overjoyed expression, and affectionately pulled Qin Chaojiu to the position that had been reserved for her a long time ago.

The Qin Dynasty was able to come for a long time, and everyone in Yongchang Hou was pleasantly surprised.

"Go and bring me the pastry I prepared for the princess." Bai Wan immediately commanded.

Soon, a milk cake was delivered to Qin Chaojiu.

"This is made of cow's milk and eggs, even the queen mother is full of praise when she eats it, and the things that are rewarded from the palace are specially kept by your mother."

This milk cake is indeed a very rare food in this era, and as soon as Qin Chaojiu took it, he couldn't help but think of the sentence reminded by the general's wife just now.

She took the pastry to the tip of her nose and sniffed it, and her eyebrows suddenly frowned.

"What's wrong? But you can't smell it?" Bai Wan immediately became nervous.

Qin Chaojiu waved his hand and sniffed it carefully, and a trace of coldness suddenly appeared in his eyes.

She put down the pastry, and when she raised her eyes, she happened to see a little guy bow his head in a panic, turn around and run.

Qin Chaojiu's hands were quick, he grabbed the teacup in front of him and flew over, smashing directly into the crook of the little guy's knee.

"Ahh Bai Wan screamed in fright and hurriedly covered her mouth again.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes looked towards Qin Chaojiu and them.

Qin Guanrui moved quickly, and he had already stepped forward to hold the person down and take him down.

Qin Chaojiu was about to speak, when Bai Wan suddenly pressed her hand and whispered, "Today is your second brother's big day, you ......

Qin Chaojiu didn't respond to her, but raised his head and said to everyone: "I'm really embarrassed to teach my own subordinates who don't have long eyes, and disturbed everyone, I will use tea instead of wine to compensate you."

Qin Chaojiu said, getting up and picking up the teacup.

After drinking a cup of tea, Qin Chaojiu got up directly, turned around and left with a black face.

Bai Wan stretched out her hand and pulled Qin Chaojiu.

Qin Chaojiu said with a cold expression, "Madam Hou, don't worry, I won't ruin your son's wedding banquet."

After speaking, he pushed Bai Wan's hand away and got up to leave.

Bamboo quickly picked up the piece of pastry on the table.

Qin Guanming is the groom's official today, and he saw from a distance that something was wrong here, but he was entangled and couldn't get out.

Qin Guanming and Qin Jiang's father and son were also surrounded by a group of people, complimenting each other.

Only Qin Guanrui, since Qin Chaojiu came to the Hou Mansion, his eyes have not left her for a moment.

"Is it tried?" Qin Chaojiu stepped into the room and saw Qin Guanrui's face as black as the bottom of a pot.

Qin Guanrui took a step forward, looked Qin Chaojiu up and down nervously, and asked, "What did you eat and drink just now?"

"I only had a cup of tea."

When Qin Guanrui heard this, he immediately called out as if he was facing a great enemy: "Someone is coming, call the doctor quickly!"

"What's wrong? I'm fine." Qin Chaojiu was also a little flustered by his nervous appearance.

Qin Guanrui said, "Someone wants to poison you, I'm afraid you've already eaten it in your stomach."

The doctor came quickly, and at Qin Guanrui's insistent request, he still asked Qin Chaojiu for a pulse, and after confirming that it was okay, Qin Guanrui was relieved.

"Who is trying to harm me?" Qin Chaojiu asked.

Qin Guanrui frowned: "If you don't ask, you will commit suicide."

Qin Chaojiu said to the doctor, "Doctor, can you help check this pastry?"

The doctor took the pastry in front of him, first smelled it, twisted it with his hands, and finally tried it with a silver needle, and said, "With my many years of medical experience, this pastry is indeed poisonous, and it is highly toxic arsenic, and if you eat it, you will die."

Qin Guan was so angry that he dropped the cup on the spot: "Who is so vicious! I must kill my sister for a long time!"

The bamboo was startled, no wonder the princess didn't eat it just now.

Bamboo said with trepidation: "Didn't this pastry be taken out of the palace? Isn't it ......?"

Is it the queen who wants their princess to die?

"From the palace to the Hou Mansion, it needs to go through the hands of many people, and any of them can be poisoned, and it is not certain who poisoned it."

Qin Chaojiu interrupted Zhujie's words and spoke.

Turning around, Qin Chaojiu took the silver and rewarded the doctor, and instructed him, "Today's affairs of the Hou Mansion, please don't say much about the doctor."

"Yes, please rest assured Princess Beimu."

When the physician had received the money, he departed.

Qin Jiang and Bai Wan and his wife also came together, and they were all frightened on the spot when they learned that Qin Chaojiu had a sudden attack just now, but it was because of the poison in the food.

"This ...... Who did this? Why did you choose to deliberately make a fool of my Hou Mansion in front of so many colleagues and officials today?!" Qin Jiang subconsciously spoke.

Bai Wan tugged at his sleeve, but Qin Jiang didn't understand what she meant. Z.br>

The corners of Qin Chaojiu's crimson lips drew a sneering arc, and she said as if she was self-deprecating: "Mrs. Hou is afraid that I will ruin the wedding banquet of the second prince of the Hou Mansion if I investigate it, and what the Marquis of Yongchang cares about is whether today's matter will be laughed at and sweep his face, but he does not mention the danger and grievances of this princess, which is very sad."

Qin Jiang and Bai Wan's faces were all pale, and the two of them hurriedly wanted to explain, but they were interrupted by Qin Chaojiu raising his hand.

"Master Hou, Mrs. Hou doesn't have to worry, this princess knows that this matter has nothing to do with the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, and she will not blame you."

Not giving them more opportunities to speak, Qin Chaojiu held Zhujie's hand: "Let's go."

"No, Asahyu, mother didn't mean that, mother is worried about you, you listen to my explanation." Bai Wan chased after her.

Qin Chaojiu paused for a moment, then turned around and said, "What does Madam Hou want to explain?"

"I thought you suddenly hit that little guy because you still had a grudge against us, I didn't know he would poison people, I don't know......

The corners of Qin Chaojiu's lips hooked slightly: "The third brother doesn't know either."

There was no need to say any more superfluous words, and Qin Chaojiu turned around again.

This time, Bai Wan finally didn't chase after her.

Yes, Qin Guanrui also didn't know anything, but his first reaction was towards Qin Chaojiu.

When he saw that Qin Chaojiu had done something to that little guy, he decided that the little guy had done something wrong, and immediately arrested someone and went down to interrogate him.

But as a mother who is connected to her by blood, her first reaction is that she wants to find fault.
