That night, the second young master had a persistent high fever and had nightmares all night long, calling for his father in a daze, his little face flushed, scared Aunt Qing stood by the bed and covered her face and cried.
"Qing'er, Xi'er will be fine." Chu Bai embraced Aunt Qing, and persuaded her in a low voice. Aunt Qing's thin body leaned on Chu Bai's body, crying so much that it was raining like pear blossoms, which was extremely distressing.
"Husband, it's all my fault that Qing'er didn't keep an eye on Shi'er. He's still so young. When I think about it, I almost lose sight of Shi'er..."
When Aunt Qing was agitated, she couldn't finish her sentence, as if she wished she could suffer instead of Chu Shi.
Aunt Qing's words reminded Chu Bai of the day's events again, his face darkened, and his dissatisfaction with Chen Xiang Yuan increased a bit.
"How is this going?"
Mrs. Yingchuanhou, who was in a hurry to get the letter, looked anxious, and walked a few steps to the side of the collapse, leaned over and touched Chu Shi's head, and it was hot.
"What's the matter, isn't it fine during the day?"
Mrs. Yingchuan Hou's tone was urgent, implying questioning.
"The doctor said that Shi'er didn't have a physical problem. It was very likely that she was frightened in the afternoon and lost her mind." Chu Bai said in a low voice.
Mrs. Yingchuan Hou's face immediately turned ugly when she heard the words, "I said that this evil bastard is dedicated to the Kehou Mansion, and even Shi'er will not let it go, it's unreasonable!"
"Mother, I have already sent someone to invite Master Dao. Shi'er's illness is really strange."
Mrs. Yingchuanhou nodded, "Alright, let the Taoist master take a look at the horoscope of this evil bastard."
Everyone in the room waited quietly, Aunt Qing sobbed softly from time to time, Chu Shi curled up on the couch with a small body, shouting something in her mouth.
Contrary to the lively and active appearance in the past, Mrs. Yingchuan Hou felt very distressed.
About an hour later, a middle-aged man in a gray Taoist robe came in, with a somewhat Daoist posture.
This person is Taoist Master Yunfeng, who has some connections with the Yingchuan Houfu.
Daoist Yunfeng stood a step forward, looked at Chu Shi, "Second Young Master was frightened and lost two souls and two souls. If he is not recalled in time, his mind will be damaged in the future, and it will be difficult to make a big deal."
If the mind is damaged, isn't that a fool? Chu Shi is the hope of Yingchuan Houfu, so how can he be a fool.
Mrs. Yingchuan Hou immediately said, "Then trouble the Taoist priest to cast a spell and save Shi'er. Nothing will happen to Shi'er."
Daoist Yunfeng nodded, raised his eyes and glanced at Aunt Qing who was sad beside him, their eyes met, and they moved away quickly without anyone noticing.
After asking for Chu Shi's birth date, Taoist Master Yunfeng pinched his fingers at the stars again. After waiting for a long time, the darkness between his brows became more and more obvious.
"Daozhang, what's the matter?" Mrs. Yingchuan Hou asked.
Daoist Yunfeng sighed, "Hey, the second son's pearl is covered with dust. It should be noble and supreme, but it happens to be suppressed by a villain. It will be very disadvantageous for the second son in the future."
Mrs. Yingchuanhou's eyelids jumped. Isn't this villain Chu Xin, the evil seed of Chenxiangyuan? The show has become a concubine.
Isn't it just that the villain is obstructing everywhere, Mrs. Yingchuanhou glanced at Taoist Yunfeng, "Is there a solution?"
Daoist Yunfeng glanced at Chu Xin's date of birth, "This person shouldn't have belonged to Yingchuanhoufu, his fate is rough, and he has a mother with special fate to take care of him. When he grows up, the two will be in harmony. Definitely take away everything that belongs to the Second Young Master, even the Second Young Master's life, and don't stay for long."
Mrs. Yingchuan Hou gasped, "Can that sick child still harm Shier?"
Daoist Yunfeng smiled, "Ma'am, there are many capable people in this world, if the little son's mother can find someone to cast a spell and take away the second son's lifespan, it may not be impossible."
After saying that, Taoist Master Yunfeng took out a pair of spells from his pocket, lit them on a candle, chanted a few spells, and then mixed the ashes into a bowl of clear water.
"Feed the talisman water to the second young master to drink, and he will recover within two hours. However, this method cannot last long, and the poor way of life is limited, and my wife has to be prepared."
With that said, Taoist Master Yunfeng left the yard.
Mrs. Ying Chuanhou swayed, her face was surprisingly embarrassing, and her eyes were clear, "Just now the guards beside your father wrote that your father was injured. If the guards weren't smart, your father might be in danger. Your father suffered some injuries, His Royal Highness sent your father back, and he arrived in Shengjing three days later."
Mrs. Yingchuan Hou didn't care about Aunt Qing anymore, and said directly, "Do you still remember the divination for Chu Xin in Bianzhou?"
Chu Bai nodded. The man said that Chu Xin would not live to be three years old at most, so the Yingchuan Hou Mansion opened and closed its eyes, but seeing that Chu Xin was almost four years old, could it be that Princess Chaoyi did it behind her back? What kind of trick saved Chu Xin's life
There is also Princess Chaoyi's attitude towards Chu Xin before and after, which is even more unpredictable. In the past few years, Princess Chaoyi ignored Chu Xin, and Chu Xin grew up with the maidservant.
After only a few months of separation, Princess Chaoyi changed from her usual indifference and cared for Chu Xin, which made people think deeply.
"What does mother mean?"
Mrs. Yingchuanhou's face was cold, "If Chen Xiangyuan really did it, I would definitely not be able to get around her. No wonder I tried everything I could to get back to Shengjing. The incompleteness is the result of manipulation in those days."
Madam Yingchuanhou was so angry and angry that she tore Princess Chaoyi's heart alive.
"Ma'am, if you want to know if it's Chenxiangyuan, you might as well search for it, and you will definitely find some clues."
The white nanny next to Mrs. Yingchuan Hou suddenly proposed.
Mrs. Yingchuan Hou's eyes lit up, "You are right, since you have done it, you should leave some traces. Let's search now, and she will definitely be caught off guard!"
Bai Momo nodded, this is this
"Okay, you stay here with Shi'er, don't worry about the rest, leave it to mother."
Mrs. Yingchuan Hou waved her hand, asking Chu Bai to stay with Aunt Qing.
During this period, Aunt Qing never said a word, but her goal was achieved.
Chu Bai did not refute Madam Yingchuanhou, and watched Madam Yingchuanhou leave.
"Don't worry, Shi'er will be fine." Chu Bai comforted in a low voice.
Aunt Qing nodded, and the two sat on the couch and stared at Chu Shi.
On the other side, Mrs. Yingchuanhou angrily led people to Chenxiangyuan. Most of the whole Chenxiangyuan was arranged by Mrs. Yingchuanhou, so no one obstructed Mrs. Yingchuanhou.
Princess Chaoxi was standing aside with her chin propped up, squinting her eyes and sleeping lightly. After a while, she heard bustling sounds from outside the yard.
Princess Chaoxi opened her eyes, and Mint walked in immediately, "Princess, it's Madam who led people to rummage in the yard."
"what happened?"
Mint shook his head, expressing that he was not clear.
Princess Chaoyi stood up, asked the little maid to look at Chu Xin, and went out by herself.
The maids and women in the courtyard searched around, and within less than a stick of incense, the Chenxiang Courtyard was in a mess, and all the servants in the Chenxiang Courtyard stood aside and waited.
"Ma'am, the princess is here." Seeing Princess Chaoji approaching, Bai Momo reminded her in a low voice.
Mrs. Ying Chuanhou glanced at Princess Yi, "I lost an emerald earring during the day, and that earring was given by Lord Hou himself. turn up!"
"yes!"
The maidservant nodded, and rummaged harder, crackling, breaking many objects wherever she went.
Princess Chaoji frowned, "When did mother come to Chenxiangyuan during the day?"
"After the Second Young Master's accident, Madam came to punish the maids of Chenxiang Courtyard. She came once when a new batch of maids were replaced!" Bai Nao said quickly.
"There were so many people at that time, how could my mother be sure that she fell in the Chenxiang Courtyard? My mother did not go to other places less this day."
Princess Chaoyu is not stupid. It is absolutely impossible to search for an earring with such a great fanfare.
It must be something else!
It's just that it's too disrespectful to yourself. In the middle of the night, without even saying hello, you directly bring someone to the hospital for search, which is too much.
Mrs. Ying Chuanhou was choked, and she glared at Princess Yi angrily, "What is this called? I forgot about it this afternoon because of Shi'er. This jade earring just fell in Chenxiangyuan. Maybe some servant is greedy for money." Take it away, are you going to deliberately oppose me and deliberately make me unhappy?"
Princess Chaoji pursed her lips, but was held back by Madam Xu, "Princess, Madam knows the earrings best, as long as you find them, it's all right. Why do you need to obstruct and annoy Madam?"
Mr. Chaoxi moved his lips and waved away Nanny Xu's arm, "Mother, it's not that my daughter-in-law insists on getting upset with you, it's just that in the middle of the night, it's hard to find someone who's in a dark place, and since she's sure it's in the yard, I won't be able to find it tomorrow. late."
Princess Chaoyi is sure that Mrs. Yingchuanhou didn't come to look for some earrings at all. There must be something unclean in the yard. After changing slaves in the afternoon, Mrs. Yingchuan lost the earrings. Princess Chaoyi doesn't believe in coincidences.
The more Princess Chaoyi obstructed, the more Mrs. Yingchuanhou suspected that she was guilty, and said coldly, "What kind of attitude is this? These earrings are not ordinary earrings. Can they be the same? Look, if you don't find the earrings today, who will?" Don't even think about going out!"
Mrs. Yingchuanhou didn't take Princess Chaoyi seriously at all, and the maid gave an order to find her even harder.
Princess Chaoyue took a deep breath, clenching her fists tightly in her sleeves.
After a while, a woman came out with a package in her arms.
"Ma'am, I found it under the locust tree over there."
Madam Yingchuanhou's eyelids twitched, "Open!"
The woman nodded, opened the package, revealing a brocade box, opened the brocade box tremblingly, and gasped suddenly.
There are two puppets in the brocade box. Looking at the clothes, they should be the sons of your family. They are young. The two puppets are tied with a red string. The difference is that one is laughing and the other is crying. The crying one There is also a red cloth bag wrapped around the neck, which is tightly strangled.
Mrs. Ying Chuan Hou immediately recognized that the cloth of the two puppets came from two juniors, and the crying one was Chu Shi!
The old woman pinched the dolls, then found scissors, opened the two dolls, and sure enough pulled out two notes from inside.
Mrs. Yingchuanhou took the note, on which were written the birthdays of Chu Xin and Chu Shi, the one on Chu Shi was still written in scarlet letters, and smelled it closely, a faint fishy smell directly made Mrs. Yingchuanhou's face slightly pale. Change.
"Princess, what is this?"
Mrs. Ying Chuanhou threw the puppet directly on the face of Princess Chaoyi, "You have such a vicious mind, you actually buried a witchcraft under the locust tree, no wonder you chose Chenxiangyuan as soon as you entered the mansion. I have already thought about it!"
Princess Chaoxi shook her head, "This is not made by the palace, and I don't know why two puppets were found here, but my mother came here suddenly in the middle of the night and found the puppets as soon as she arrived. Is it a coincidence? "
Mrs. Ying Chuan Hou glared at Princess Chaoqi, "You still dare to argue, because you have been having nightmares, and now you have found a puppet from your yard, what else can you say!"
"I don't need to persecute a child. I went out in the afternoon. When I came back, my servants were replaced by my mother. Now I have a puppet planted to frame her. There is no excuse for the crime!"
Princess Chaoyi absolutely cannot admit this matter, once she admits it, the Yingchuan Hou Mansion will most likely use this matter to dispose of herself, and Xin'er will have no one to take care of her.
"Snapped!"
Chu Bai walked into the door, and slapped Princess Chaoqi directly, "What kind of attitude is this? Mother can still deliberately frame you, why don't you hurry up and apologize to mother!"
Chu Bai was persuaded by Aunt Qing to come here, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard Princess Chaoji's disrespect to Mrs. Yingchuanhou.
The corner of Princess Chaoxi's mouth was tilted to the side, the clear palm print on her fair cheek was very obvious, and the corner of her mouth was broken.
"I am the princess of Xiyue Dynasty, and my father has not abolished me for a day. You are just a son of the Marquis Mansion, how dare you fight against me?"
Princess Chaoxi's anger broke out all afternoon, but as a mother, Princess Chaoxi decided not to back down.
Chu Xin was shut down in the ancestral hall when she was only four years old. She still has scars all over her body and her forehead is also broken, piercing the heart of Princess Chaoxi everywhere.
Chu Bai was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "Princess? A princess with such a vicious mind like you will only bring shame to the royal family. Don't forget your identity!"
Princess Chaoyi clearly saw the contempt in Chu Bai's eyes, the two had been married for four years but had never lived together, outsiders said that they respected each other like guests, but in fact Chu Bai was extremely disgusted with Princess Chaoyi.
"Bai'er, don't talk to her, such a vicious person would not let a four-year-old child go, it's really cruel, no wonder he taught Chu Xin such a domineering temper!"
Mrs. Yingchuanhou spat, but after all, she was still afraid of what she said to Princess Yi just now, so she suddenly rolled her eyes.
"What about Xin'er, it's not your turn to make irresponsible remarks. How have you ever treated Xin'er sincerely in these years? He is a four-year-old child like Chu Shi. Why do you have the heart to let him kneel in the ancestral hall and instigate him not to let him die?" This matter informs me that no matter what my status is, you are not allowed to abuse me, but if anything happens to Xin'er, I want your entire Marquis Mansion to be buried with you!"
Princess Chaoyi was furious, staring at the two of them with red eyes, the cold outburst of hatred made Mrs. Ying Chuanhou couldn't help but take two steps back, her nose almost turned crooked at Princess Chaoyi's words.
"Snapped!"
Chu Bai slapped him again unceremoniously, and Princess Chaoyi was caught off guard, and her body softened, and she fell to the ground directly.
"Don't overestimate yourself. What else do you expect? The Zhao family has collapsed, and Concubine Zhao is not favored. She has a lot of quarrels with the prince and the princess. Besides, you are already married, and your unfilial parents-in-law are plotting against Shier. How dare you Strong words and contradictory words, no matter which one is enough to divorce you."
Mrs. Yingchuan Hou gave Chu Bai a wink, and Chu Bai understood, "From now on, Xin'er will be brought up by Aunt Qing for the time being, so as not to be misled by you. As for you, stay in Chenxiangyuan and reflect on yourself!"
Princess Chaoji was stunned, "No, you can't take Xin'er away..."
Chu Bai raised his jaw, "Go and take Xin'er away and send it to Aunt Qing."
As soon as the words fell, two women broke into the door immediately. Mint wanted to stop them but was pinched by the two women. His strength was no longer able to withstand the two women, so he could only retreat to the side and watched the two women. The son took away Chu Xin who was sleeping soundly.
"Xin'er!" Princess Chaoji wanted to go forward, but was stopped by Chu Bai, who tightly grabbed Princess Chaoji's hair.
"Princess, don't toast and refuse to eat fine wine, just admit this obediently, so as not to suffer from flesh and blood!"
Being pulled by Chu Bai forcefully, Princess Chaoyi's scalp was almost torn off, and she grunted in pain, Chu Bai was so angry that she kicked Princess Chaoyi's abdomen.
Princess Chaoji's face suddenly turned pale, and she fell to the ground, curled up and clutching her stomach, watching Chu Xin being taken away.
"Take care of the people, if something happens, this son will sell you all!"
After the words fell, those maidservants immediately knelt down, "Yes!"
With a bang, the door of Chenxiangyuan was closed tightly, and Princess Chaoyi was so angry that she closed her eyes and passed out completely.
