After a few days, Wen Xiangxiang still went to the study every day to listen to the situation, but after that, he basically mentioned Ah Jiu's illness every day, and the whole study was in chaos when he mentioned it.

And Ah Jiu's condition not only did not improve, but became serious, which further aggravated the talk of those ministers.

As far as Wen Xiangxiang knew, these courtiers had already known that Ah Jiu had contracted the epidemic through reports from various spies, and they were preparing to report some of their thoughts to Fu Yan.

Wen Xiangxiang said this is not without reason. When he was passing by the study that day, he accidentally heard several courtiers jointly play the matter, so he squatted at the door and sat for a long time.

This courtier said that Ah Jiu was infected with the epidemic, and that courtier said why not take this opportunity to take the throne. Wen Xiangxiang couldn’t help but sigh, what courtiers were raised in Ah Jiu’s government, each one of them was not thinking about the country’s good, but These are some great treasonous things to usurp the throne!

Wen Xiangxiang only occasionally heard a few weak voices mentioning the source of the epidemic, but he was quickly overwhelmed by these outrageous words. Wen Xiangxiang felt that there were still ministers in the court.

Wen Xiangxiang shook his head again and again after hearing this. The courtiers who mentioned the source of the epidemic never said anything. Instead, these discords became more and more loud. Fortunately, Fu Yan did not follow their words, "Your words are said here by this king. It’s okay to say it, this kingship has never heard of it, and His Majesty is still ill, if you take these words out and say it, it would be a great treason.”

Of course, Fu Yan didn't talk about a thorough investigation of the epidemic. He wanted to cover up some things and even some people.

Those courtiers lost their anger after hearing what Fu Yan said, and Wen Xiangxiang also felt relieved.

They all felt that this was a rare opportunity. As the saying goes, don't come again when the opportunity cannot be missed. After passing this village, the shop will be gone, so the group of people knelt on the ground with a plop, but Wen Xiangxiang, who was eavesdropping, was startled. Jump.

These old things!

Wen Xiangxiang felt injustice in his heart, but he couldn't rush in easily. If he entered in this way, Fu Yan's reputation for conspiracy could be established. Although Ah Jiu didn't want to lose power, he probably didn't like this way, so Wen Xiangxiang didn't stand up. , but listened to Fu Yan's movements with bated breath.

After a long silence, he left.

But he didn't know that when these things reached Ah Jiu's ears, they couldn't help but be embarrassed.

Ah Jiu was sitting on the bed in a daze, raising her pale face and dull eyes, and saying "Uncle Huang is finally about to do it" shows how much sadness and sadness.

Wen Xiangxiang went to the Matchmaker House. He shook his head all the way to the Matchmaker House. The business of the Matchmaker House was still booming. Compared with the desolation of Ah Jiu's sleeping hall, Wen Xiangxiang felt that Ah Jiu was really too pitiful.

Everyone in the Hongniang Pavilion knew Wen Xiangxiang. As soon as they saw him, they felt that it was definitely not serious business, so they ignored him, but Xiang Yun looked at him several times with a blushing face before leading him to Shen Qinghe’s room. .

"In the past few days, Sister Qinghe doesn't seem to be in a good mood."

"Huh?" Wen Xiangxiang paused.

When Xiangyun sent him in, there was not only Shen Qinghe, but also Du Ying in the room.

Only then did Wen Xiangxiang realize that Du Ying probably told Shen Qinghe about Ajiu, so Shen Qinghe was in a bad mood these few days.

Xiangyun is a well-behaved and sensible person, and after taking a few glances at Wen Xiangxiang, he closed the door and stood guard at the door.

"How come you didn't know that something happened to me. If Du Ying hadn't told me, how long would you be hiding from me?"

As soon as Wen Xiangxiang came in, Shen Qinghe scolded Wen Xiangxiang.

"Didn't you always care about these things?"

Wen Xiangxiang sat down on the stool and poured himself a cup of tea, but was cut off by Shen Qinghe.

"A Jiu came to me the day before the epidemic and said that I should be her servant."

"You agree?" Wen Xiangxiang was surprised.

"Yeah." Shen Qinghe nodded and took a sip of tea, "I promised Ah Jiu to be her vassal, and she also said that she was going to establish a women's office the next day, but this happened."

Shen Qinghe shook his head regretfully.

Wen Xiangxiang thought for a while, poured himself another cup of tea, and said, "After Ah Jiu came to look for you, something happened that night." After a while, he put down the tea cup and asked again, "Where did Ah Jiu come to you that day? Didn't you take the carp's marriage book?"

Shen Qinghe was stunned, "How do you know?"

"Oh! My sister!" Wen Xiangxiang patted his head, "When Ah Jiu was sick, the book was taken away by the uncle!"

"Ah!" Shen Qinghe patted his head, "It's over, it's over! When Li Yu came, the conditions he wrote were not all A Jiu, and I named A Jiu at the end. If Fu Yan took this away, I don't know how much trouble it would be. thing!"

"That's not right! I almost got into a fight with Li Yu!" Wen Xiangxiang said strangely.

Du Ying was taken aback for a while, "Why? I've watched this uncle for so long, and I haven't seen him fight anyone!"

Wen Xiangxiang clicked his mouth, "That's the princess, you don't know, you will understand later."

"Oh!" Du Ying nodded her head in a dignified manner.

"Then why did Ah Jiu take the carp's marriage book?" Wen Xiangxiang asked the confused Shen Qinghe.

Shen Qinghe stopped and thought for a while, "It seems that she thought that Li Yu's female lieutenant was also written on that book."

"You mean A Xing?"

Shen Qinghe nodded, "A-Jiu also said that there are many women in the Hongniang House, so I have to check this woman's origin no matter what."

"Is that so..." Wen Xiangxiang reached out and touched his chin, and nodded to himself, "If you say that, the identity of this A-Xing is indeed suspicious."

"I don't know if it's suspicious, but the information revealed by these children in my matchmaker's house has revealed that this A Xing is from the imperial capital and an orphan, and the adoptive parents who adopted her have passed away."

Du Ying wondered, "How did you get to Saibei six years ago? The imperial capital has been peaceful for the past ten years, and it is impossible for refugees to be moved to Saibei!"

"That's why Ah Jiu asked us to investigate."

"En." Shen Qinghe nodded and looked at Wen Xiangxiang, "Then Ah Jiu's illness..."

Wen Xiangxiang obviously hesitated for a moment. He knew in his heart that if Ah Jiu had suffered from severe cold, he would have nothing to do with Li Yu, but the matter had not yet been implemented. Du Ying and Shen Qinghe still decided to tell them that one is the female official's office who is about to take office, and the other is the aunt who is on the side of Ah Jiu.

Should be trustworthy.

Wen Xiangxiang thought about it and pulled the two closer and whispered, "This matter is extremely secretive, and the people in the palace don't know it, let alone the people of the imperial capital. A Jiuran is actually suffering from the severe cold in Saibei."

Du Ying and Shen Qinghe looked at each other after listening, Shen Qinghe frowned and asked, "Severe cold symptoms in Saibei? How did that get introduced to the imperial capital?" Then she thought of Li Yu inadvertently, and immediately understood.

Wen Xiangxiang nodded, "I'm afraid I can't get rid of it. This matter is still under investigation, so it's better to tacitly understand."

Shen Qinghe nodded slightly, only one Du Ying still didn't respond.

Du Ying didn't care about these things, and Prince Dun didn't care either. Now it's not only a threat to the throne, but also related to Ah Jiu's life, so he has to care.

She thought that what Wen Xiangxiang and Shen Qinghe had guessed, Prince Dun would have guessed. Even if she didn't understand it now, she didn't make it clear, but went back and told Chen Zhi a little bit, and Chen Zhi understood it immediately.

Du Ying was about to ask, but found Chen Heng standing behind eavesdropping, "Heng'er."

Prince Dun turned back slightly and saw Chen Heng, who was hiding, walking out slowly, "Heng'er didn't hear it intentionally."

Du Ying smiled, "Mother didn't blame you either."

Prince Dun looked at Chen Heng, "Heng'er, do you have any ideas?"

Chen Heng nodded, "At the beginning, Heng'er was also infected, and when Heng'er recovered, he went to investigate. The imperial capital only passed on the epidemic a hundred years ago, but it was not as fierce as this, so it is not the imperial capital that came out. It should be related to Li Yu."

Du Ying was surprised that her son had always been a smart child, but she didn't want to be so insightful in the world. She gave a thumbs up in her heart, and at the same time felt that she was really clumsy as a mother.

"But the situation has not been confirmed, so don't talk nonsense."

"Heng'er knows." Chen Heng paused and asked again, "Cousin Huang is more ill than Heng'er, does she also know?"

"A-Jiu doesn't seem to be shrewd, but I don't know how many tricks are hidden in her head. She is far more shrewd than we have seen." Prince Dun sighed, his own niece, can he not be clear

"Heng'er wants to see the emperor's cousin."

When Du Ying heard this, Hun'er was frightened, and quickly refused, "No way! You are just recovering from a serious illness, so you can't go!"

Chen Zhi didn't object, and Chen Heng saw Chen Zhi's face. After getting permission, he explained to Du Ying, "Mother, the baby is just recovering, so he won't get any disease. Mother, don't worry!"

Du Ying still refused, and Chen Heng persuaded again, "Have you ever thought about Ah Jiu's situation?"

Du Ying didn't understand.

Prince Dun sighed, "The foreign ministers all said that Ah Jiu was infected with the epidemic, saying that she was critically ill, and now Ah Jiu is locked up in the bedroom by the uncle, naturally this rumor is true. Put Ah Jiu in a state of decline, what will the foreign ministers think?"

Du Ying immediately shook her head and looked up at Chen Zhi, "No! I never thought of putting Ah Jiu in such a disadvantageous position!"

Prince Dun clapped her hand, "You are her aunt, so you shouldn't be!"

This made Du Ying feel at ease.

At the insistence of Chen Zhi and Chen Heng, Du Ying agreed with them through gritted teeth.

Chen Heng was A Jiu who went to visit the palace alone a few days later, but when he came, he happened to catch up with the imperial doctor to completely cure the epidemic for A Jiu.

Chen Heng was surprised.

Isn't there no cure for this epidemic
