Liu Qingqing's complexion was not very good-looking, and there was a trace of fatigue on his face.
When something like this happened, Mrs. Su not only locked Mrs. Huang up again, but also severely reprimanded herself yesterday. Now she is in charge of the mansion, and the access control in the mansion is not strict enough, so naturally she is also responsible.
Nangong Yue understood Su's temperament very well. Looking at Liu Qingqing's tired look, she knew that she must also be implicated, so she comforted her softly.
Liu Qingqing took a look at Mrs. Lin, and said again: "Yesterday I also suffered from my second aunt. She was sick by her grandmother's bed and didn't sleep well for most of the night."
That's how it is! Nangong Yue pondered for a moment and then said: "Mother, sister-in-law, let me go back to Nangong Mansion with you."
Lin hesitated for a moment, and asked worriedly, "Can you go?"
"Don't worry." Nangong Yue said with a light smile, "The palace has not been sealed, so I can go back to my mother's house."
What's more, this trip back can also let interested people see that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion is doing well, and the emperor raised it high and put it down gently, so that under anxiety, there will be wrong moves.
Lin and Liu Qingqing did not object after hearing the words.
After all, Mrs. Su is Nangong Yue's grandmother. Mrs. Su is ill. Since Nangong Yue knows about it, if she doesn't visit her, she will inevitably be offended.
Baihui said from the side: "Concubine Shizi, this servant will order someone to prepare the car..."
"The servant is going to get the medicine box." Lily said.
So, more than half an hour later, Nangong Yue, Lin Shi and Liu Qingqing arrived at Nangong Mansion and went directly to Rong'an Hall.
The three of them entered the inner room under the guidance of the servant girl. The inner room was very warm, probably because of Mrs. Su's age, an extra charcoal basin was placed in the inner room, which made Nangong Yue's face turn red.
Su Shi was half lying on the couch leaning on a big pillow, with a fox fur mop on his forehead, his face looked very haggard, as if he had aged several years all of a sudden.
Mrs. Su didn't know about the confiscation of the Zhennan Palace yesterday. Seeing Nangong Yue's return, she smiled at her in relief.
After paying respects to Su Shi, Nangong Yue said, "Grandmother, may my granddaughter take a pulse for you?"
The servant girl immediately brought a handful of twigs to Nangong Yue, and after Nangong Yue sat down, she felt Su Shi's pulse.
Everyone looked at Nangong Yue quietly, only to see that she put three fingers on Su Shi's wrist, pondered for a moment, then put away her hand, and then looked at the prescription prescribed by the doctor again, nodded Said: "This prescription is good, just follow this service."
Although they knew that the Su family was fine, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when Nangong Yue said this.
Then, Nangong Yue winked at Baihui, and then said to Su Shi: "Grandmother, let me help you with the needle."
Baihui hurriedly took out the needle pack from the medicine box, and prepared the candle again. The match between master and servant is very tacit... After a cup of tea, Nangong Yue stopped the injection.
Su Shi showed her face and said: "Yue'er, I feel that my chest is much more comfortable." It seemed that even his complexion looked better.
Nangong Yue persuaded softly: "Grandmother, you still need to rest well, don't get angry anymore."
Su nodded, but thinking of that idiot in Sanfang still made her very angry.
At this time, the voice of the servant girl saluting came from outside: "I have seen the third master!"
Su's brows frowned suddenly, and her anger came up again. Nangong Yue shook her head secretly, thinking how could Su's temperament recover well.
Soon, there was a sound of picking the curtain, Nangong Zhi walked in, bowed to Su Shi with a bitter face and said: "Mother, are you feeling better?"
Su sneered unceremoniously: "It's fine if you don't make your daughter-in-law mad!"
Nangong Zhi froze, bent down even lower, and said, "Mother, my son has apologized to you on behalf of Mrs. Huang!"
"I will forgive you." Su waved his hand and said, "I can't bear such a daughter-in-law! Since she likes to make decisions so much, let her go back to the Huang family and be the master of their Huang family!"
The implication is to divorce the Huang family!
The Su family was so angry that he lost his mind. Since ancient times, there have been three things not to go, the second of which is to not go after three years of mourning. It means that those who keep filial piety for their father or mother with their husbands for three years cannot rest.
The Huang family kept filial piety for Nangong Hao for three years.
How could Nangong Zhi not understand this truth, but his face was even more ugly, and he could only beg: "Please, mother, still save the face of my son and Brother Hao..."
In the past, the Su family would give this bastard some sympathy, but this time she was really furious, and said angrily: "Third son, could it be that even you are going to disobey..."
"Mother!" At this moment, a familiar male voice interrupted Su, and Nangong Qin entered the house through the curtain.
Nangong Qin first asked Lin and the others to go out for a while, leaving only their mother and son in the inner room.
After a while, Nangong Qin and Nangong Zhi came out, and there was a little bit of exhaustion in their expressions.
Nangong Qin ordered Liu Qingqing to send someone to Guangping Hou's Mansion to deliver a message, saying that Mrs. Huang had suddenly fallen ill and was bedridden. If the Guangping Hou Mansion is sensible, it should know how to do it.
Liu Qingqing hurriedly sent someone to do it, while Nangong Yue accompanied Mrs. Lin back to the inner room to talk to Mrs. Unknowingly, another hour passed. Seeing Mrs. Su's face showing fatigue, they were about to leave when they saw a The little servant girl came in a hurry, and said with low eyebrows: "Old madam, second madam, eldest young mistress, Mrs. Guangping Hou is here, and she said that she has already matched the horoscopes of the fourth girl and the fourth son of Cheng. It's auspicious." , That's why I came here specially to give the Najib ceremony..." The little maid knew that there was a lot of fuss in the mansion over the four girls' marriage in the past few days, so she was a little terrified and waited for Su's reaction with bated breath.
Nangong Yue and Lin's family looked at each other in blank dismay. They didn't expect Nangong Mansion's attitude to be so obvious that Mrs. Guangping Hou came to the door anyway.
But this matter is due to Huang's fault first, since he has exchanged Geng Tie with Fourth Young Master Cheng, as long as Guangping Marquis recognizes it, this marriage is actually a foregone conclusion. Just now Nangong Qin asked Liu Qingqing to send someone to pass on the message, in order to let the Guangping Marquis Mansion ambiguously pass it on and secretly return the Geng Tie.
Su groaned for a moment, rubbed her brows and said: "Daughter-in-law Sheng, you go and greet Mrs. Guangping Hou first." Then she ordered the servant girl, "Go and call the third master and the third lady!"
Liu Qingqing knew in her heart that there should be a conclusion on today's matter, so she hurriedly left.
After a while, Mrs. Huang was brought by two women, and they saluted reluctantly.
Immediately after, Nangong Zhi also came.
Su sneered endlessly in her heart, and said: "The third daughter-in-law, the Guangping Marquis Mansion is here..."
Huang's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and she knelt down with a plop: "Mother, you have to pity Miss Lin and agree to this marriage! Sister Lin's marriage to the Guangping Marquis Mansion will be helpful to Nangong Mansion after all. Good!"
Su Shi was too lazy to talk to her, so she just said lightly: "Third daughter-in-law, it's fine for me to agree to this marriage, but you have to promise me two things first." She stretched out an index finger, "One, wait for Sister Lin After my son is married to Guangping Marquis Mansion, don't go back to Nangong Mansion if you have nothing to do..."
Huang's pupils shrank, and he looked at Su in disbelief. Su's intention is clearly that she will not recognize Nangong Lin as her granddaughter in the future!
Huang looked at Nangong Zhi intuitively, hoping that he could say something nice for his daughter, but seeing Nangong Zhi's eyes drooping slightly, he didn't even look at himself.
It's really useless! I don't even dare to say a word when I meet my aunt!
Huang secretly said in disgust. She took a deep breath, calmed down, and thought to herself: As long as her daughter can marry into the Guangping Marquis's Mansion, it's fine, and it's okay if she doesn't go back to her mother's house a few times, she can also visit her.
Su smiled sarcastically, and gestured with another finger: "Second, after sister Lin gets married, either the family will be separated, or the third daughter-in-law, you can go to the Zhuangzi to 'recover' for me!"
This time, it was Huang's turn to change his face. If the family is separated, then the third house will suffer a disastrous decline. It turns out that the husband is in charge of the general affairs of the house. If the family is separated, will he lose this job? And what will the son say about the relationship in the future
Before she could speak, she heard a male voice firmly say: "You can't separate the family! Parents are here, so there is no separation. This is the rule."
Huang-shi subconsciously followed the sound and saw Nangong Zhi looking at Su-shi firmly.
If the family is not separated, wouldn't the Huang family be sent to Zhuangzi to "recover from illness"?!
Huang's complexion turned pale immediately, without a trace of blood, and she looked at Nangong Zhi in shock. He is so cruel!
Of course she doesn't want to go to Zhuangzi, but sister Lin...
Thinking of sister Lin's pleading little face before, Huang's heart ached for a while.
Being a mother is strong, Huang quickly calmed down again.
When the daughter married into the Guangping Marquis Mansion and gained a firm foothold, how could the Nangong Mansion not recognize her as the fourth aunt!
As for myself, even if I go to Zhuangzi now, it doesn't mean that I can't come back later. Wasn't the Zhao family sent away at the beginning, and didn't they return to the mansion later. If you stay in the green hills, you won't have to worry about having no firewood. Now it's still necessary to help your daughter settle the marriage first.
Huang gritted her teeth, and said cruelly: "Mother, please agree to this marriage. My daughter-in-law agrees to everything you said."
Su waved his hand tiredly, "I'll change my clothes and go meet Mrs. Guangpinghou for a while, you all should leave."
Nangong Yue looked at Huang Shi with pity, that is, Huang Shi, Nan Gonglin and other shallow-sighted people, only to think that marrying into the Guangping Houfu would lead to heaven. Nangong Lin has done such an unsightly and scandalous thing, the Madam Guangping Hou has already felt displeased with her in her heart, and now she just wants to use Nangong Mansion to rely on Guangping Hou Mansion because of the chaos in the court. In the future, when disasters happen, what kind of good life can a daughter-in-law who is not loved by her natal family live in her husband's family? There will be a long time in the future... There will be times when she regrets it.
But Huang smiled happily, thinking that as long as she gave her daughter a chance, her daughter could also soar into the sky like Nangong Cheng and Nangong Yue!
On this day, not only Mrs. Huang was in a good mood, but Mrs. Guangping Hou was also in a good mood. Although Najili was a little hasty and did not make it, but after receiving the approval letter from Nangong Mansion, she happily returned to Guangping Marquis Mansion, thinking in her heart: yesterday When she first heard that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion was ransacked, she regretted that she had accepted the Geng Tie from the Huang family, but who knew that she got the news again in a flash, Jin Yiwei just searched carelessly and left. It's not even a matter of ransacking the house. The Zhennan Prince's Mansion is really favored. With the protection of the Zhennan Prince's in-laws in the future, she must be able to get through this difficulty safely in the Guangping Hou's Mansion!
After Mrs. Guangping Hou left, Nangong Yue also bid farewell and returned to Zhennan Palace.
The fact that the Zhennan Palace was raided by Jin Yiwei has long been known to everyone in the capital. These days, there are not a few official residences in the capital that have been raided. Although it is shocking, it is no longer a surprise. In contrast, Jin Yiwei only searched the Zhennan Prince's Mansion once, and he did not seal the mansion, and did not arrest anyone. Even the Zhennan Prince's concubine was still in the mood to return to her mother's house, which was a bit surprising.
These days, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion is still the only mansion that has been confiscated but lightly let go.
For a time, most of the mansions in the royal capital had similar ideas to the Guangping Hou's Mansion, and the Zhennan Prince's Mansion... No, it should be said that the son of the Zhennan Prince was indeed quite favored, and even under this situation, they were all spared.
After the news reached Han Lingfu, he even hurried to Pingyang Hou's Mansion.
However, what he didn't expect was that there were more than one pair of eyes staring at him secretly. After he came out of Pingyang Marquis Mansion, Lu Huaining, the Commander of Jinyiwei who had received a report, went to the imperial study to see the emperor.
The emperor, who had received the report from Eunuch Liu, looked at the memorial and said without raising his head: "Xuan."
Eunuch Liu went out to announce people in person, after a while, Lu Huaining strode into the imperial study room, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "My subject, Lu Huaining, sees the emperor."
The emperor raised his hand and signaled him to stand up. Eunuch Liu hurriedly let all the waiters go down, and the emperor said expressionlessly: "Speak."
"yes!"
Lu Huaining stood up and reported back: "His Royal Highness the Third Prince went to Pingyang Marquis Mansion for two days in a row."
Although the raid was for show, it was not just for show. While raiding Zhennan Palace, Lu Huaining had already followed the emperor's orders to focus on several palaces in the capital.
"Could it be Xiao San again?"
There was forbearance in the emperor's voice, and he unconsciously squeezed the memorial with force.
Han Lingfu's side concubine is the saint of Baiyue, so he does have a chance to collude with Baiyue!
His face sank like water, he took a deep breath, and said: "Check again! The third prince's mother clan is weak, and he probably won't be able to win over so many people to use for him."
Han Lingfu's mother clan has been expelled from the royal capital. If this son can really pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, and secretly win over these important ministers without telling him, the emperor might not even be able to sleep soundly.
The emperor paused, and said in a deep voice: "There is also Lu Wenzhuo, let me check him out too."
The emperor always thought about the scene in the early court that day, especially the words of Guan Yubai echoed in his ears from time to time, which made it impossible for him to ignore it.
Lu Wenzhuo, the chief assistant of the cabinet, can be said to be under one person and above ten thousand people in Dayu. If he is betrayed by himself... Just thinking about this possibility will make the emperor sleepless.
Lu Huaining respectfully accepted the order.
The emperor paused for a moment, then asked again: "Is the princess of Zhennan Wang still safe?"
Lu Huaining hurriedly said: "The minister told the emperor's eloquence to the concubine, the concubine is gentle and virtuous, and asked the servants to let the minister search and not interfere."
"Yue girl knows the general idea." The emperor nodded in satisfaction, and waved Lu Huaining back.
When only Eunuch Liu was left in the imperial study, the emperor suddenly said, "Huiren, what do you think?"
Eunuch Liu was taken aback, and quickly replied with a sneer: "Slaves naturally listen to the emperor."
The emperor sneered, and after a long time, he murmured, "It's really a bunch of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves..."
I don't know if this "white-eyed wolf" refers to the third prince, or a courtier colluding with Baiyue, or Baiyue... Eunuch Liu dared not answer at all, and stood aside respectfully.
Ever since Zhennan Prince's son was impeached and died, some government tentatively sent posts to the door, but all of them were declined one by one. Not only that, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion closed its doors tightly, and even the servants were not allowed to go out at will, except for the usual purchases.
After closing the door to thank guests for a few days, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion has been tidied up a long time ago, as if there are no traces left, but the behavior of the Jin Yiwei that day, like the autumn wind sweeping away, has been engraved in the hearts of many servants in the Prince's Mansion. A deep imprint was left, and people were panicked.
Xiao Fei's life soon calmed down, her life was simple, as long as she had books to read, it didn't matter.
Nangong Yue's small study room is like a treasure house to her, she can always find some rare ancient books that make her ecstatic, intoxicated in the books, it seems that she has forgotten the panic when Jin Yiwei came to search that day in a few days.
As always, she got up at three o'clock in the morning, and went to Fufengyuan to have breakfast with Nangong Yue at every o'clock in the morning.
But this day, as soon as she entered the yard, she saw a short and fat woman kneeling on the bluestone floor and shivering, her face was so pale that there was no trace of blood.
Xiao Fei was a little strange, as soon as she entered the main room, Lily came up to her, and saluted, "Miss, the concubine Shi Zi woke up with a sore throat in the morning, and she was drinking ginger soup inside... how about I serve you breakfast first?"
"No need." Shaking her head, Xiao Fei asked worriedly, "Did sister-in-law catch the cold? Why don't sister-in-law let her rest for a while?"
Bai He hurriedly replied: "Big girl, Shi Zifei said that she will be fine after drinking ginger soup."
Thinking of Nangong Yue's excellent medical skills, Xiao Fei felt relieved, then looked at the woman kneeling outside the house, and asked: "What's the matter with that woman? But what mistake did she make?"
"Miss, that woman stole a few utensils from the warehouse last night and wanted to sneak out of the mansion, but was caught by the guards in the mansion, and she is waiting for the concubine's punishment!" Lily replied logically. .
Xiao Fei frowned: "Since my sister-in-law is not feeling well, don't bother her with such trivial matters, just give this woman twenty sticks as an example, and then send her to the government."
What Xiao Fei did was considered merciful, if this servant dared to steal the property of the master's house, it would not be too much to beat him to death with a few sticks.
Lily responded vaguely, while winking at Huamei who was beside her, and Huamei quietly entered the inner room, and reported Xiao Fei's treatment of the woman to Nangong Yue.
Nangong Yue was rinsing her mouth at this time, and she curled her lips slightly after listening.
In ordinary mansions, there are such slavish slaves, thinking that family ugliness should not be publicized, and they will not be sent to the government. They usually beat them up, and then find someone to sell their teeth.
However, with Xiao Fei's temperament, she didn't send her directly to the government, and she knew that it would be very rare for her to intimidate the other servants.
Nangong Yue nodded slightly and said: "Just do what the eldest girl wants." Since Xiao Fei has already ordered, Nangong Yue will not go to wipe her face, so she can use this opportunity to make Xiao Fei stand up in front of her servants. Liwei is.
After a while, the woman was dragged down and punished...
Nangong Yue deliberately waited until the outside was quiet before walking out of the inner room belatedly.
At this time, the maids had already set up breakfast efficiently.
After breakfast, Lily told Xiao Fei what happened just now, Nangong Yue just smiled and ordered Lily to call Ren Yazi, and sold the woman's family.
Xiao Fei showed a thoughtful expression, knowing that Nangong Yue did this because she was afraid that the woman's family would secretly resent or dissatisfy, and in the end other disasters would arise instead. In contrast, what I did by myself is still a bit rough.
Obviously, my sister-in-law is only two years older than me, so she is so capable, and I still have a lot to learn! No wonder the ancients often said that "reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles", which is very reasonable!
This matter was settled swiftly and swiftly, and finally the restless people in the palace were suppressed. The servants seemed to understand in an instant from the panic that it was the Crown Princess who could dictate their life and death, not the disturbance from outside.
Zhennan Prince's Mansion gradually calmed down, but the Third Prince's Mansion was facing a new wave of storms.
The third prince Han Lingfu, who was still studying in the study room, received the emperor's oral order, and entered the imperial study room with a little doubt.
"My son kowtowed to his father..."
Han Lingfu saluted respectfully, but the emperor didn't ask him to stand up, instead he scolded angrily, "Nizi!" Immediately afterwards, a teacup was thrown at his feet, smashed to pieces in an instant, and the tea splashed .
What the hell is going on?! Han Lingfu was startled, but he didn't dare to avoid it. He kowtowed deeply and said, "Please calm down my father. I don't know what I did wrong to make my father so angry. My son panic."
"You still dare to ask questions knowingly!" The emperor laughed angrily, and said coldly, "Then I will tell you and see what else you have to say! Tell me, did you bribe a Jinyiwei named Xu Fukang? Let him quietly put a letter in a box carried out from Zhennan Prince's Mansion, with the intention of framing An Yihou and Zhennan Prince's son?!"
Could it be that Marquis Pingyang did it? This was the first thought that came to Han Lingfu's mind.
Even though he was thinking this way, he immediately defended himself: "Father! There is absolutely no such thing. My son has been wronged. Someone must be framing my son. I ask Father to see clearly!" size.
Han Lingfu was actually a little apprehensive.
He had indeed been to Pingyanghou's mansion a few times, and discussed with Pingyanghou how he could set fire to Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi again, so that his father could decisively convict them... Pingyanghou said at the time that they could unite Several courtiers continue to impeach, as long as the evidence is convincing, the father will definitely not tolerate it. Could it be that this is the evidence that Marquis Pingyang said
He secretly framed Xiao Yi without telling him, and was discovered by his father
If this is the case, then Marquis Pingyang is really too careless in his actions!
He didn't know himself, and set himself on fire. He set the fire on himself!
Han Lingfu was unhappy, but he also knew that Pingyanghou must not be exposed at this time, otherwise the matter of him colluding with the courtiers to frame Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi would also be exposed, then not only the father, but also the courtiers would be disappointed in him. The civil and military officials in China are gone!
Then his future is really completely ruined!
The more Han Lingfu thought about it, the more frightened he became.
The emperor's face was as deep as water, and his eyes were cold: "Is it because you want me to call that Xu Fukang to confront you, so that you are willing to plead guilty?"
Han Lingfu was covered in cold sweat behind his back, and his heartbeat echoed in his ears. But then he thought about why his father didn't come up with this person's confession? Could it be that...
Han Lingfu gritted his teeth, bowed his head and said, "Father, my son was framed! My son is willing to confront this person!"
The emperor was silent.
The imperial study room was silent, Eunuch Liu on the side hardly dared to breathe, but Han Lingfu below felt a little more at ease. It seems that it's not that the father doesn't want to, but that he can't take it out...
The emperor frowned tightly, his face sinking like water.
Xiao San is not afraid to confront that Jin Yiwei, is it because he really has a clear conscience? Or does he simply know that that Jin Yiwei is dead?!
That Jin Yiwei committed suicide by swallowing poison in fear of sin, he looked like a dead soldier, and his family was not in the capital at all, so it was hard to find...
The emperor took another deep look at Han Lingfu, and did not speak for a long time.
After a long while, the emperor finally said in a deep voice: "I will thoroughly investigate this matter, you go back to the prince's mansion for now, without my order, you are not allowed to go out during this period of time behind closed doors."
Han Lingfu secretly let out a long sigh of relief, he bet right!
Although he was still a little unwilling, he knew that this was the best result, so he bowed himself to accept the punishment: "Yes, father!"
Seeing him backing out of the imperial study obediently, the emperor's eyes were dark and inexplicable.
This seemingly respectful son has become more and more serious over the years, and he often pretends to be smart and does some stupid things behind his back!
Thinking of Guan Yubai's advice to wait and see what happened that day, sure enough, he immediately showed his feet impatiently...
This matter, I will definitely investigate and find out.
The emperor said in a deep voice: "Go and call Lu Huaining here... and, Marquis An Yi."
