After returning to the east courtyard, Wen Qingzhu asked Lu Tao to call Jasmine back.
Half an hour later, Jasmine rushed back.
"Miss, what happened to Yanyuan?"
After taking a look outside the house to make sure that no one was there, she asked Jasmine carefully: "Have you noticed anything unusual around your grandfather in the past few days?"
"Abnormal?" Jasmine thought for a moment, then shook her head, "I haven't paid much attention to the master for the time being."
Wen Qingzhu thought of the task Liu gave her when she was at Fu Shoutang.
This is a bit difficult to handle.
"Master, do you have any questions?" Jasmine saw the difference in her expression and asked.
Wen Qingzhu frowned and hesitated before saying: "Grandma suspects that grandfather has another woman, and this woman is in Wen's house. She is also very sure that this woman will never be over twenty-five years old."
After hearing this, Jasmine asked again: "Does the old lady doubt the Wen family's maid?"
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Well, if the Wen family's maid reaches the age of twenty-five and has not found anyone, she will be given a bond of prostitution and let her go."
Jasmine analyzed Wen Qingzhu seriously: "This slave is definitely not right. The pretty maids are all the personal maids of each master. In this case, they must be no more than twenty years old and they must have found someone. The rest of the maids may have slipped through the net a little bit." Yes, they must have been picked out by the mothers in charge of the family, and the master should look down on the rest."
Wen Qingzhu nodded and spread out a book: "I think so too. My grandmother gave me a book. It listed all the maids under the age of twenty-five in the Wen family. She asked them to identify them and see which ones were not. A maid who gets married has lost her virginity."
Jasmine followed and looked over, wondering: "Is the old lady in charge of the house now?"
Wen Qingzhu replied: "Yes, now that my grandmother has completely lost her heart, she has taken back the housekeeper's rights. We can't let Aunt Ding of the second room take advantage of her."
The two of them looked through it together and found that there were more than 140 maids under the age of twenty-five in the Wen family.
Calculated according to the average monthly income, the monthly expenditure is a large sum of money.
Seeing this, Wen Qingzhu suddenly became curious. The Wen family spent so much money every month.
What industries are there
With this idea in mind, Wen Qingzhu decided to start his investigation from Zimingtang.
After all, it was the task given to her by Mrs. Liu. Although she felt that Mr. Liu was going in the wrong direction, she still had to do what she had to do.
You have to take a walk around the Wen Mansion just to show off.
When Wen Mingxuan heard that she was coming, he asked for leave to come and accompany her.
Wen Qingzhu didn't deliberately drive him away.
Just when he saw Liu's people coming, he let Wen Mingxuan go.
On this day, Wen Qingzhu visited all the maids in Zimingtang.
As soon as they walked out of Zimingtang, Songyan suddenly appeared.
"Miss Seventh, the old lady asked your slave to come over and ask you, how are you today?"
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "There is no problem with Zimingtang."
Song Yan didn't ask any more questions, said goodbye and left.
As soon as he returned to the east courtyard, he saw Wen Qingxin waiting at the door.
"Sister Eleven?"
Wen Qingxin saw her coming and hurriedly greeted her: "Sister Qi, you are finally back."
Wen Qingzhu took her into the house.
After sitting down, he asked the maid to serve tea and dismissed everyone.
"Sister Qi, I, I don't want to go to Fengguo Temple anymore." Wen Qingxin's voice was trembling, and her hands were grabbing her knees uneasily.
Wen Qingzhu raised his eyes and looked at her: "What's wrong? Are you dreaming again?"
Wen Qingxin bit her lower lip, and it took her a long time to say, "Yes, because I dreamed that Sister Seven could not accompany me to Fengguo Temple."
"Huh?" Wen Qingzhu's expression became solemn.
Before Jiang Yuancheng came, she should have no problem accompanying Wen Qingxin to Fengguo Temple.
Wen Qingxin's eyes were very panicked and she just said: "I don't know why, but in short, the seventh sister suddenly had something to do and stopped going. Then..."
She was trembling and couldn't say the next words.
Wen Qingzhu's eyes narrowed and he asked her, "Did something happen to you or me?"
"Seventh sister first." Wen Qingxin suddenly closed her eyes tightly and gritted her teeth.
Wen Qingzhu looked at Wen Qingxin's expression, but didn't see her eyes.
But she did feel inexplicably uneasy.
"What do you think."
Wen Qingxin lowered her head: "I, I dare not say."
Wen Qingzhu took a deep breath: "Sister Eleven, our cooperation must continue. Although things changed last time and we cannot continue, our goals are the same."
Hearing this, Wen Qingxin clutched her knees tighter.
On the back of the fair and delicate hand, the light blue meridians are bulging.
The skeleton on the back of her hands is also particularly obvious, and it looks like she has indeed lost a lot of weight.
"Seventh Sister, you... you met Prince Ning! He took him to Prince Ning's Mansion!" Wen Qingxin finally said it loudly.
Wen Qingzhu's expression tensed up again.
Is it Prince Ning again
Are Wen Qingxin’s words credible
Maintaining a calm mind, Wen Qingzhu continued to ask: "What about your affairs?"
Wen Qingxin suddenly raised his head, his expression extremely frightened.
She stood up suddenly, and then knelt down in front of Wen Qingzhu with a bang.
She cried for help: "Please Sister Qi, please help me! I really can't go to Fengguo Temple! That old man is not a human at all! He will kill me! I dreamed that he wanted to... If I don't obey, I will be killed." He grabbed his neck!"
"Then what?" Wen Qingzhu asked again.
Wen Qingxin's expression improved a little: "I was frightened and woke up. I don't know what happened next..."
Wen Qingzhuzi looked at Wen Qingxin's expression carefully.
She could confirm that Wen Qingxin was not lying.
But it was hard for her to believe that Wen Qingxin could predict what would happen next in her dreams.
But Wen Qingxin accurately predicted some of the previous events.
"Let me think about it. I have to find out about Prince Ning." Wen Qingzhu's head hurt, and she felt that things in the world suddenly became strange.
"Seventh sister..." Wen Qingxin grabbed the corner of Wen Qingzhu's clothes and refused to let go.
Wen Qingzhu sighed: "You go back first, and don't openly disobey grandma. What kind of temper she is now, after suffering for so many days, I think Ni should be very clear in her heart."
"I know, but..." When Wen Qingxin thought of General Qin, her whole body trembled uncontrollably.
Wen Qingzhu thought of the news that Lei Shuo sent that day.
This Qin Hetai is indeed very perverted.
It's not that he has never married, but he has made many marriages.
But before they got married, the bride died suddenly.
Of course, all his fiancées have one thing in common, that is, they are all girls under the age of twelve, and they were all met by Qin Hetai in advance. He wanted to rape the woman, but when she resisted, he strangled the woman to death in anger.
The reason why Wen Qingxin fell in love with him was because he met Qin Hetai once on the way to Yang's house.
"Sister Eleven." Wen Qingzhu decided to give her a warning.
Wen Qingxin raised his eyes in shock, looking shocked.
This look that I feel pity for is indeed very tempting to a pervert like Qin Hetai.
"Seventh sister..." Wen Qingxin's voice was so soft that it made people's hearts tremble.
Wen Qingzhu stretched out his hand to wipe away her tears, then pressed the tip of her brow and lifted it up.
"You put on an arrogant smile and look at it. It's the same as when you bullied me before."
Hearing this, Wen Qingxin became anxious and quickly explained: "Sister Qi! I really didn't mean it before! No, no, no! I did it on purpose! But I didn't want to kill you! Nor-"
Wen Qingzhu withdrew his hand and looked at her steadily: "What Qin Hetai hates most is stubborn and arrogant women. As long as you are not afraid to see him again, and at the same time show the insidiousness and flattery you should have, I believe him." You will definitely be disappointed!"
Wen Qingxin was still dazed, but Wen Qingzhu had already stood up and left.
Wen Qingzhu went directly to Mother Ye.
She must now find a way to know more about Prince Ning.
How could he be taken away by Prince Ning
Could anything happen before the Flower Festival
At night, Wen Qingzhu went out and went to Baoding Hall.
After Baoding Hall closed, the Sun family's grandfather and grandson also went to the backyard.
After opening the door, Wen Qingzhu sat inside drinking tea.
Sun Hongyuan walked over and knelt down to kowtow to Wen Qingzhu.
Mother Ye wanted to stop him, but Sun Junming said seriously: "The young lady saved grandpa's life. This is what he deserves."
Mother Ye looked at Wen Qingzhu and saw that she raised her hand, and Mother Ye stepped back.
When they finished kowtowing, Sun Junming led Sun Hongyuan to sit down.
"Is Baoding Tang's business good recently? Is there anything strange?"
It was Sun Junming who started to speak. He said in an old-fashioned way: "Business is getting better and better. The prescriptions sent by the lady are very inspiring to us and the curative effect is very good. The most important thing is that some people are willing to undergo surgery."
"Very good." Wen Qingzhu was very satisfied, and then asked, "Didn't the person who wanted to acquire Baoding Hall come again?"
"Yes, but there was a very special guest. He wanted to buy Baoding Hall directly, but Mr. Su later helped to stop him." Sun Junming said calmly.
"Who?" Wen Qingzhu looked attentively.
Sun Junming shook his head: "I don't know. Mr. Su just said that this guest should be treated well in the future and must not be neglected."
Wen Qingzhu was silent. Su Huo didn't want to say that he must be a person with great power.
Then it's not Jiang Yuancheng who is King Ning.
At this moment, grandpa Sun Hongyuan spoke: "I, I know who he is, he is the current emperor."
"What!" Wen Qingzhu suddenly stood up.
How could it be Jiang Yue
What does the current Shunde Emperor want to buy Sun Hongyuan's grandson
Wen Qingzhu was a little upset.
She didn't have much contact with Jiang Yue, but his thoughts were too complicated.
The most important thing is that as an emperor, no matter what Wen Qingzhu does, he may offend him.
Extremely difficult to deal with.
After taking care of this, Wen Qingzhu felt that he might have to give up Baoding Hall temporarily.
Prince Ning or Jiang Yuancheng can still arrange a comprehensive response.
But Jiang Yue was a man who had fought in the last battle for his wife.
Even if Wen Qingzhu was reincarnated, she was not sure that she could deal with him.
Without any hesitation, Wen Qingzhu explained the next lie to the Sun family.
They nodded in understanding.
Wen Qingzhu and Mother Ye hurriedly left the backyard of Baoding Hall.
What she didn't know was that shortly after she left, a figure quietly walked out from around the corner.
She did not go home, but went directly to Changle Lake.
The transfer person sent someone to notify Zheng Xu.
She couldn't contact Su Huo, but Zheng Xu, as Empress Zheng's natal family, must know the emperor's recent situation.
After waiting for more than an hour, Zheng Xu hurried over.
"Miss Wen." Zheng Xu greeted politely.
After Wen Qingzhu asked Mama Ye to go down, he asked Zheng Xu to come into the inner room.
She lowered her voice and asked him: "Mr. Zheng, please tell the truth. Did the book I gave to the Crown Princess last time have any effect?"
Zheng Xu looked at her intently: "Yes, His Majesty has always been very kind to the Crown Prince."
"Then the emperor has been in the palace recently?" Wen Qingzhu asked again.
Zheng Xu felt something was wrong: "Why do you ask that? Have you seen His Majesty outside the palace?"
Wen Qingzhu gritted his teeth and said, "The emperor has been to Baoding Hall. What do you think it was because of?"
"Your Majesty has left the palace?" Zheng Xu was also shocked.
Wen Qingzhu urged impatiently: "Is there anything strange in the palace recently?"
