The corners of Qingguan's mouth curved again and she said, "You have to give up even if you don't want to. Who told you to be plotted against?"
Zhao Jingyan snorted, "I will return it one day."
A faint smile emerged from Qingguan's mouth, "Consider the matter in front of you first. The emperor's health is a bit worse. You are not in the capital. There are some things that should be prepared in advance to avoid future troubles."
Zhao Jingyan took her hand, put it on her lips, kissed it, and said softly: "Wan Wan, you change my medicine first, and then feed me some porridge. I will arrange it right away."
"good!"
Qingguan agreed immediately!
"By the way, how did you know about the meeting between King Xian and Zhao Huayang?"
Gu Qingguan hesitated for a moment and said calmly: "When I returned home yesterday, Su Ziyu was waiting halfway. He told me."
Su Ziyu
Zhao Jingyan was slightly shocked, how could it be him
Gu Qingguan knew what he was thinking and said: "I didn't believe it at first, but today the Emperor called the King Xian and he admitted it himself."
Qingguan softly told everything in the palace one by one, and finally said: "In my opinion, these words are 20% true and 80% false. Tinglin, you should be careful. The Prince Xian's Mansion needs to send more people to keep an eye on it." "
Zhao Jingyan said immediately: "I will make arrangements immediately."
After changing the medicine and feeding them clear porridge, Qingguan and Zhao Jingyan discussed going back home first and coming back at night.
In order to make him recover by the 15th, she must go back home and discuss with Uncle Fu and Zi'ang how to use the medicine.
As soon as she left, Gao Xiaofeng, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Punishments and others entered the Prince's Mansion one after another. Zhao Jingyan smiled slightly when he heard A Li's report, and talked to the visitors one by one.
The night is as cold as water.
As soon as this group left, Mr. Wang Ge came in quietly. Zhao Jingyan was slightly happy and ordered A Li to welcome out the second outer gate.
On the other side of the room, Qing Guan called Qian Fu and Cao Zi'ang to his side and told the prince's pulse.
When the two of them heard this, they suddenly felt a headache. Trauma can only be cured by resting. There is no good medicine. When the time comes, it will heal naturally.
The three of them frowned and discussed for a long time, and decided to use a method of treating both internal and external diseases, and carefully drew up a prescription.
After the incident, Qian Fu went to Qingfeng Hall to get medicine in person, while Cao Ziang started making plaster for trauma.
At the third watch, Qingguan walked into Shi Songyin's yard, stroking her slightly aching temple.
Shi Songyin had already taken off his hairpin and was sitting in front of the mirror in a daze. When he saw her coming, a smile suddenly spread across his face.
Since returning from the Jiang family, she has never seen Qingguan or Jiang Hongwen again. Knowing that they are both busy with the prince's affairs and she can't be of much help, she simply stays in the house contentedly. I don't cause any trouble to them, but I always think about it in my heart.
Seeing the worry in her eyes, Qingguan stepped forward and stroked her hair, telling her what had happened in the past two days.
Shi Songyin never thought that a small painting could cause such a big disturbance, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
Qingguan pulled her to sit down and whispered: "Don't be afraid, just take care of yourself. In the past few days, someone from the Jiang family should come to cancel the engagement. At that time, Hongwen and I will discuss whether we can take the opportunity to Tell your story frankly."
A lie requires countless lies to cover it up. She doesn't want the matter between Songyin and Hongwen to become complicated.
Shi Songyin never expected that Qingguan was still thinking about her at this time. His eyes could not help but heat up, and he put his arms around her neck.
"Our matter is not urgent. Let's get the prince through this hurdle first. Don't cause any more trouble at this time."
Qingwan's eyebrows frowned slightly.
Shi Songyin hurriedly smiled and said, "It won't be too late to discuss it after my eldest brother arrives in Beijing."
"How many days does he have left?"
"I heard there's still half a month left."
Qingguan counted the days, then nodded and said: "It's up to you. I've thought about a recipe for you, you try it and see. I won't be in the house often these fifteen days, so you can look after the house for me. ”
Shi Songyin touched Qingguan's slightly darkened eyes with her delicate hands and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely take care of this home."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yueniang hurriedly opened the curtain and came in, "Miss, the grandma of the Jiang family is here."
"Qingguan?" Shi Songyin's heart began to beat wildly when he heard the word "Jiang Mansion".
Qingguan patted her hand and said, "I must have come here on the orders of my ancestors. Do you want to come with me and listen?"
Shi Songyin pursed her lips and nodded.
Mrs. Zhu looked at the delicate woman in front of her, dumbfounded.
She prides herself on seeing all directions and hearing in all directions, but she never noticed the strangeness between Hongwen and Miss Six.
Her ancestors still knew how to act, and she knew what she was doing, but she still asked her to choose a date with the eldest lady.
Mrs. Zhu put down the tea cup, coughed slightly and said: "Sixth sister, I came today to obey the orders of my ancestors. You see, when things have reached this point... they have to be settled, but no matter how they are settled, our two families still have to settle the matter." We have to discuss it.”
"Sister-in-law!" Qingguan still called her by her old name and interrupted her rudely.
The sound of "Sister-in-law" made Mr. Zhu's face sweet and her heart bitter.
She can still take on the role of "sister-in-law" now, but she will never dare to do so in the future. The woman in front of her will be extremely valuable in the future.
"There is no need to discuss, the Jiang family will cancel the engagement directly."
Zhu was surprised, "How amazing is this? How can a person like Qing Lingling, the sixth sister, bear such a bad reputation?"
"The Shili clan of the Jiang family will be a strong supporter of the prince in the future. I am a woman with no parents or siblings. My only eldest sister is already married. I can do anything."
One day, she will leave the capital, and the Jiang family's roots are in the capital. It is the lesser of the two to harm each other. Rather than suffer criticism from others, it is better for her to bear all the consequences.
What's more, she is someone who has lived through life and death, and knows that fame is nothing compared to feelings.
Zhu's heart warmed up and she choked with sobs: "Sixth sister, if you say this, let sister-in-law do what you want."
She is not a three-year-old child. She has already figured out what kind of person Qing Guan is over such a long time. With her temperament, she will never take the initiative to provoke Ting Lin.
Now if the matter is to be blamed on her alone, the Jiang family can't do it, and I'm afraid Tinglin won't agree.
Qingguan said calmly: "Now is not the time to care about things. Let's get over the hurdle in front of us first."
Tinglin's interests cannot be damaged, and the Jiang family's interests cannot be damaged. She is the only one who can be damaged.
Zhu hurriedly said: "The ancestors wanted to put the whole thing on Hongwen, saying that Hongwen had someone else he liked."
Qingguan's beautiful eyes moved and she shook her head. As a result, Hongwen was pushed to the forefront, and Shi Songyin might even be involved. Inappropriate, hugely inappropriate.
Thinking of this, Qingguan made a decision immediately: "There is no need to involve others. Sister-in-law will go back and tell the ancestors to do it according to my method. The Jiang family will come to cancel the engagement in three days."
"Sixth sister?" Zhu stood up anxiously.
Qingguan stepped forward and held her hand, and said with a chuckle: "Tell the ancestor again that she owes me a huge favor, and she will pay it back to me later."
Shi Songyin on the side heard this and his eyes turned slightly red. Based on her understanding of Qingguan, this favor must be for her.
Seeing her firm tone, Mrs. Zhu sighed and said, "How can I ask my sister-in-law to give up on your child? After all, the Jiang family is not lucky!"
Qingguan smiled and said: "We are a family after all."
Mrs. Zhu turned her back and wiped her tears, and said: "Yes, yes, yes, we are always one family. If one family does not speak the same language, I will report it back to my ancestors."
"It's hard for you to be pregnant and still running back and forth. I've asked Yueniang to prepare some comfort medicine. You can take it carefully when you go back."
When Zhu heard the words that were both cold and hot, his heart felt warm again and he shed tears.
Qingguan sighed softly, "Please help me to save the eldest lady. When the matter is over, I will go back to the house to save her."
Even the eldest lady has thought about it, she is really an exquisite person. Mrs. Zhu sighed helplessly: "Don't worry, I will definitely bring these words."
Qingguan helped her up, but looked to the other side, "I'll see my sister-in-law off, Songyin, you should go back to your room and rest first."
Shi Songyin stepped forward to salute Mr. Zhu, took a deep look at Qingguan, and left with a faint smile.
Qingwan escorted Zhu to the second gate, moved his lips a few times, and asked, "How is Wu Yanling now?"
When Mrs. Zhu heard about this person, she gritted her teeth with hatred. If it hadn't been for this mother and daughter, how could her ancestor's seventieth birthday be in such a mess.
"When I heard the news that Zhao Huayang was dead, I made a fuss like a madman and wanted to leave the house. My close relative was dead, and it was hard for the house to stop him, so my ancestors sent five or six women to follow him."
Qingguan put his hand on his forehead, paused for a long time, and said: "After all, our ancestors are well-informed."
Zhu's palms were sweating, and she lowered her voice and said, "Sixth Sister, why did you say that Zhao Huayang was fine and then hanged himself? Prince, did he really not do anything?"
When Qingguan heard this, she felt that her palms were already cold.
Even Mr. Zhu was suspicious of Tinglin, not to mention those people who didn't know the inside story. It's no wonder that the emperor wanted to send people out of the capital in a hurry. Everyone agreed, even gold and stone can be melted.
It seems that this series of plots have been planned early in the morning. The clouds are treacherous, whether they are sinking or floating, good or bad, and they still need to work together to clear the clouds.
Qingguan entered the Prince's Mansion again with uneasiness, and saw that the house was brightly lit, and it was obvious that there were still guests.
A Li saw her coming and said happily: "Miss Six, follow the younger one to the study and wait."
Qingguan waved his hand, pointed to the big tree in the courtyard, and said, "I'll stand there for a while. Someone will come out and hide behind the tree."
"I'll bring a bamboo chair for Miss Six."
"No need, I've been riding a carriage all the way and I was just about to stop. Go and do your work."
Ah Li was worried, pointed to the door, and whispered: "The little one is over there. Miss Six, just say a word if you need anything."
Dark night, starless and moonless.
The fog is getting thicker and thicker, and I'm afraid it's going to rain.
Qingguan carefully combed through what happened in the past few days, peeling off the cocoons bit by bit, trying to find some flaws.
Just as he was thinking about the shocking situation, he heard someone talking at the entrance of the courtyard. After listening carefully, it turned out that it was Concubine Yan who was bringing snacks but was stopped outside the courtyard.
Concubine Yan did not give up and argued with the guard for a few words.
A Li who was at the door heard the noise, walked over with sword steps, and said very politely: "Concubine Yan, please come back. The Crown Prince has given an order, so there is no need to come here again if you have nothing to do." Concubine Yan's eyes showed a little sparkle, and she looked at Liang absently. The house of lights burst into tears after a moment.
