There was no answer from Aunt Wu in the room, but it was eerily quiet.
Aunt Wu looked tremblingly at Wen Qinglan, who was lying on her side on the ground. She suddenly discovered that the coat draped over her body was actually a men's style.
"Lan'er!" Aunt Wu screamed and threw herself on Wen Qinglan.
Uncle Wen, who was in the main seat, finally couldn't stand it any longer. He scolded coldly: "Isn't it embarrassing? Do you want the entire Wen family to know about it?"
Aunt Wu's heart was as sharp as a knife, but she could only swallow it along with the blood.
"Cao Yu, you send someone to bring a small sedan over to take the Fourth Miss back to the west courtyard, and send two capable servants to guard the Fourth Miss day and night! Nothing can happen to her yet!" Wen Shuquan is now even more dissatisfied with Aunt Wu. How could he think this kind of person was good before
Cao Yu took the order and went down.
Not long after, Cao Yu brought two rich and powerful servants over.
They roughly pulled Aunt Wu away, one held Wen Qinglan's hands, the other held Wen Qinglan's feet, and lifted her down.
Yuan'er pulled Aunt Wu and hurriedly followed her out.
At this moment, only Wen Shuquan, Wen Qinglan, Lu Tao and Tian Chong were left in the room.
Wen Shuquan said to Tian Chong: "Go and bring Tong'er up."
Half an hour later, Tong'er was escorted into the house.
As soon as she came in and saw Wen Shuquan, she immediately knelt on the ground and cried and told everything.
But Wen Shuquan's eyes became colder and colder.
Tong'er sensed that something was wrong, and quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Please Third Master, please spare me! I'm doing this for Miss Fourth! If I hadn't discovered that the young lady had gone to the wrong place first, I'm afraid she would have hid among the servants If you go into the room, you won’t be able to tell even more clearly!”
Wen Shuquan's face was as pale as a vegetable. He never expected that Wen Qinglan could be so stupid.
This time the fifth prince came, originally quietly.
But somehow, his father actually met the fifth prince.
As a last resort, the fifth prince could only accompany Wen Guanbin.
After they chatted for a while, the fifth prince Jiang Yuancheng left.
When Wen Shuquan thought about losing today's opportunity, he was so angry that he slapped the table with Xiang.
Tong'er, who was kneeling on the ground, was shaking like chaff.
She has never been in this situation before.
After this happened, she was afraid that she would not be able to return to the West Courtyard.
Thinking of this, Tong'er became even more scared.
With a casual glance, he saw Wen Qingzhu standing next to him.
As if she had seen a life-saving straw, she knelt and moved to Wen Qingzhu's feet.
"Miss Seventh! Please save me! I really didn't mean to harm Miss Fourth! At that time, when I realized something was wrong about where I came from, I screamed out. I didn't expect to attract Master Wu here!"
But no matter how she explained, no one wanted to believe her.
Wen Qingzhu said quietly: "It's not just this matter. Since you found out that Miss Fourth went to the wrong place, you should pull her away immediately instead of hiding quietly by yourself."
Tong'er's heart was filled with a sigh of relief. How could she dare to say that she had followed quietly.
Suddenly, she thought of something.
Tong'er suddenly raised her head, tears and snot falling from her nose: "Miss Seventh, I know one more thing. Miss Fourth has secretly met His Highness the Fifth Highness several times! After I was discovered last time, Miss Four, Miss Four I won’t let my servants come close to serve me…”
"Say it again!" Wen Qingzhu did not speak, but Uncle Wen did.
Seeing that Uncle Wen showed signs of relenting, Tong'er hurriedly knelt towards him and explained: "Actually, the fourth lady and the fifth prince have always been in contact. It's true that there is a secret door to the northwest of Yanyuan. This servant saw The fourth lady has brought His Highness the Fifth here several times!"
Wen Qingzhu's heart trembled. Isn't the north of Yanyuan just behind the West Courtyard
Jiang Yuancheng was able to sneak in quietly from that place
Wen Shuquan's face was even more ugly. He didn't expect that Wen Qinglan had such a secret.
After being silent for a long time, Uncle Wen took a deep breath.
Matters related to the fifth prince must not be revealed.
Jiang Yuancheng couldn't let Wen Qingzhu know about the fact that Wen Qingzhu fell into the servant's bath today.
"Tian Chong." He made a decision in his mind.
"The villain is here." Tian Chong sighed secretly. This Tong'er is too stupid. If he keeps this secret, he might be able to live a few more days.
"Take Tong'er away." Uncle Wen no longer looked at Tong'er on the ground.
"Thank you, Third Master! Thank you, Third Master!" Tong'er became much calmer after hearing Wen Shuquan's tone, thinking that he had let her go.
But after Tian Chong accepted the order, he immediately called on the servant to escort Tong'er down.
It was only when the boy stood up Tong'er that Tong'er felt something was wrong.
She wanted to shout loudly, but before she could shout, her mouth was blocked.
There were only three people left in the house.
Wen Qingzhu whispered to Lu Tao behind him: "Go outside first and close the door."
"Yes." Lu Tao glanced at Wen Shuquan, turned around and retreated.
After Lu Tao closed the door, Wen Qingzhu calmly sat down under Wen Shuquan.
Uncle Wen had a sullen face and said nothing.
"Father, have you made your decision?" Wen Qingzhu looked at him with a smile.
"Are you willing to marry the fifth prince?" Uncle Wen squinted his eyes, always feeling that Wen Qingzhu had an ulterior motive.
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "There will be no good consequences for marrying him! Now the Yun family is on the cusp of a storm. If the refugees outside Kangcheng are not solved, the Yun family will not be able to live in peace."
"What qualifications do you have to want to trade with me?" Wen Shuquan was very wary of Wen Qingzhu.
He probably knew in his heart that what happened to Wen Qinglan today must be Wen Qingzhu's behind-the-scenes design.
Wen Qingzhu picked up the tea cup next to him and took a gentle sip.
After putting down the tea cup, she turned to look at Wen Shuquan: "Father, I know what you want, and now there is an opportunity."
"what chance?"
"A drinking banquet held by the Fu family!" Wen Qingzhu smiled at the corner of his mouth.
…
On November 17, the Wen family received an invitation to the Fu family's banquet.
Wen Guanbin was very excited and respectfully sent away the person who sent the post.
But when he opened the post, he saw that the person invited was Wen Shuquan.
This made Wen Guanbin's face darken instantly.
That afternoon, Wen Guanbin called Uncle Wen over.
In the east courtyard, Jasmine quickly sent the news back.
Wen Qingzhu was standing in front of the plum tree, admiring the plum blossoms in early winter.
Although they are not in full bloom, in the east courtyard, Shaoyao thought of a way to make the plum blossoms bloom in advance.
"Jasmine, you have to be prepared. This time I will take you and Lu Tao to Fu's house." Wen Qingzhu picked off a flower branch and turned to her.
Jasmine was startled when she heard this: "Didn't Miss always bring peonies when going out?"
Wen Qingzhu explained with a smile: "Going to Fu's house this time will not be life-threatening, but I need you to keep an eye on someone for me."
"My slave understands." Jasmine nodded.
In the evening, as soon as Xi'er delivered dinner, Uncle Wen came.
Wen Qingzhu immediately ordered: "Xi'er, add another pair of chopsticks."
Green Tao next to him moved a stool for Uncle Wen.
After Uncle Wen sat down, Xi'er also finished adding chopsticks.
The two maids stepped back knowingly.
Wen Qingzhu gave Uncle Wen a few slices of pork belly: "Father works hard all day long and eats more meat."
Wen Shuquan was not moved at all and just said quietly: "Grandpa asked me to take Mingyu and Xiaoliu with me."
"Really?" Wen Qingzhu was not surprised and added a little meat to himself.
Uncle Wen looked at her calm and indifferent expression, and became more and more unsure.
After eating two chopsticks, Wen Qingzhu put down his chopsticks when he saw Uncle Wen staring at her.
"Father, I have already helped you get the opportunity of the Drinking Banquet. Then you should tell me about my mother." Wen Qingzhu's tone was impolite.
After a long silence, Wen Shuquan finally said: "Your mother's death was an accident."
"Oh." Wen Qingzhu responded lightly, and then continued eating.
Was it really an accident
Wen Qingzhu didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart.
After sitting for a while, Uncle Wen stood up and left.
Wen Qingzhu lost his appetite and never picked up the chopsticks again.
Half an hour later, Jasmine walked in.
"Miss, the third master went to listen to Qinxuan."
Wen Qingzhu gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Why wasn't he the one who died?"
Jasmine lowered her head and did not dare to speak.
Early the next morning, Wen Qingzhu dressed up, sat in the study and waited quietly.
Half an hour later, Wen Shuquan took Wen Mingyu and Wen Qingfang to the drinking banquet.
After another half an hour, Wenqing Group also quietly went out with Lu Tao and Jasmine.
As soon as she stepped onto the carriage, she saw Zheng Xu.
"Miss Wen." Zheng Xu greeted politely.
Wen Qingzhu was in a bad mood, so he just nodded and began to close his eyes to rest.
The carriage walked for more than half an hour and finally stopped in a small courtyard.
Zheng Xu got out of the car first. After making sure that the surrounding area was safe, he let Wen Qingzhu get out of the car.
Wen Qingzhu, wearing a power hat on his head, followed Zheng Xu all the way to the backyard of the Prince's Mansion.
Arriving at a luxurious and low-key courtyard.
Wen Qingzhu took a look at the surrounding environment. When he saw them coming in, no one of the maids and servants working around them raised their eyes.
The servants of the Prince's Mansion are indeed very strict.
When he arrived at the house, He Wenru was sitting on the main seat, holding needle and thread in his hand, making a small shoe.
The moment she saw Wen Qingzhu, she was stunned.
Although she was separated by a wall, Wen Qingzhu's temperament and demeanor were still fresh in her memory.
"Miss Wen Qi?"
Wen Qingzhu stepped forward and saluted He Wenru: "Greetings to the Crown Princess."
"Please get up." He Wenru raised her hand and turned to look at Zheng Xu.
"Is she the medical woman that my uncle mentioned?" He Wenru couldn't help but ask.
It was really strange. Didn't she remember that Wen Qingzhu was seriously ill
Zheng Xu respectfully leaned over and explained: "Back to the Crown Princess, I am talking about Miss Wen Qi. Her medical skills are not inferior to those of Imperial Doctor Fang."
After hearing what Zheng Xu said, He Wenru was even more shocked.
Within the capital, currently, only Doctor Fang has the best medical skills.
"Then last time..."
Wen Qingzhu immediately explained: "My daughter had no choice last time, and she was not seriously ill."
Hearing what she said, He Wenru, who had seen strong winds and waves, quickly understood.
"Then trouble Miss Wen." He Wenru stood up and pointed to the side room next to her.
Wen Qingzhu nodded and followed He Wenru in.
Less than half an hour later, only Wen Qingzhu came out.
Zheng Xu quickly stepped forward and asked, "How is the Crown Princess? Why didn't she come out?"
Wen Qingzhu frowned, raised his hand and said, "Don't worry, the Crown Princess is fine. She took my medicine and it will take a while to wake up."
"What about the condition of the Crown Princess? She can still..." Zheng Xu didn't finish his words, but Wen Qingzhu understood.
Wen Qingzhu was walking around the house. Why was He Wenru's situation so strange
"What's going on?" Zheng Xu became more and more anxious when he saw her expression.
Wen Qingzhu stopped and suddenly turned to Zheng Xu and said, "I have tested it several times just now. Whether it is an ordinary witchcraft or an extremely rare witchcraft, I can confirm that the Crown Princess has not been poisoned."
"Impossible!" Zheng Xu denied her words without hesitation.
Wen Qingzhu pursed his lips and stared at him closely: "Is there anything else you haven't told me?"
"I..." Zheng Xu wanted to explain, but he didn't know how.
Some things are hard to explain.
At this moment, He Wenru walked out.
