A carriage stopped at the door of Ping Guohou.
Jasmine was already waiting at the door. When she saw the curtain opened, she immediately stepped forward to help her.
"Miss Du, be careful."
Du Weiniang glanced at the heavily guarded Pingguo Hou Mansion, her heart tightened, but she still had a smile on her face.
"Thank you so much, Miss Jasmine."
"You're welcome, Miss Du." Jasmine helped Du Weiniang enter the Pingguo Marquis' Mansion.
When we arrived at the main courtyard, the gardener brought winter jasmine flowers, and the whole courtyard was filled with life.
Wen Qingzhu was sitting in the pavilion, reading a medical book.
It wasn't until Du Weiniang arrived that she put it down and invited Du Weiniang to sit down.
Jasmine asked all the maids waiting around to get down, so there were no outsiders here.
"This is the prescription. Madam, please take a look." Du Weiniang took out a prescription and presented it to Wen Qingzhu.
Wen Qingzhu only glanced sideways, but did not pick it up directly.
Then he asked, "Why don't you, Miss Du, tell me how kind Prince Ning is to your family?"
Du Weiniang knew she would ask this, but she didn't intend to say, "Madam, this is a private matter of the Du family. It's really not convenient to tell outsiders."
Wen Qingzhu chuckled: "Aren't you afraid that Prince Ning will go back on his word and threaten you again and again?"
This time Du Weiniang didn't speak, and the hand on her lap tightened the handkerchief.
Seeing that she was still hesitant, Wen Qingzhu didn't force her. He picked up the teapot and gave her a cup of tea.
"The weather is still a bit cold. Sister Du, why don't we drink some tea."
Changed your title
Du Weiniang raised her eyes and looked over, but instead of seeing the familiarity she had before, she only saw an imperceptible coldness.
"Thank you very much. This is a matter of the Du family. Thank you madam for your concern." Du Weiniang picked up the teacup but decided not to tell her.
After all, there are too many people involved in this matter.
In less than half an hour, Du Weiniang said goodbye and left.
Wen Qingzhu then picked up the prescription on the table and looked at it, then frowned.
By noon, the person in charge of King Jing's funeral was selected.
Yang Jiu sent the news back immediately.
Wen Qingzhu was eating and stopped using his chopsticks after hearing Yang Jiu's words.
"It turns out that Prince Ning is responsible for Prince Jing's funeral?"
Yang Jiu handed over a list: "Madam, take a look at this first. This is sent by the subordinates ordered by the Marquis."
Wen Qingzhu picked it up and took a look and found that both Dali Temple and the Wen family had been temporarily taken over by King Ning's people.
After a long silence, Wen Qingzhu waved his hand to let him go down.
After a while, Lu Tao came over to deliver the account book, looking very happy.
"Miss, this is the account book from the end of last year. I have already taken a look at it, and there is basically nothing wrong with it."
Wen Qingzhu flipped through it casually. His appetite was not very good, so he asked the people to remove the things.
After reading it, Wen Qingzhu only felt that Zhuangzi's income was a bit poor, and found nothing unusual, so he put down the account book.
After letting Lu Tao sit down, she asked about Yang Dong.
Lu Tao answered carefully: "His body has recovered well and he has tried to move on his own, but he cannot move too much."
Seeing her so happy, Wen Qingzhu also thought of what Mother Ye mentioned.
"Lu Tao, you are only a few months younger than me and will turn eighteen this year. Do you and Dongzi have any plans?"
Lu Tao, who was still very interested, suddenly became shy, lowered his head and said, "Why did the lady also talk about this matter?"
"Look, I'm already married, and you guys are getting older. I can't keep dragging you along." Wen Qingzhu held Lu Tao's hand, which was still a little cold.
Lu Tao thought for a moment: "My slave is not the kind of person to be naughty. When he gets well, I will ask him what he means."
"Well, you can just decide for yourself. Tomorrow I will ask Yang Liu to help you deregister."
Lu Tao became nervous when he heard this: "Miss, I don't want to be a slave anymore!"
Wen Qingzhu smiled and comforted her: "Why don't I want you? Yang Dong himself is a good citizen. You are still a slave now. You can't be the main wife. You will still be with me in the future."
"This slave is relieved now." Lu Tao breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Qingzhu corrected her: "You don't need to call yourself a slave from now on. I will remember Shaoyao, Jasmine, Xi'er and the others to be here, and I will do it for you all together tomorrow."
"That slave... I will change it slowly. Jasmine and Xi'er are fine. Shaoyao is going to go..." Lu Tao pointed in the direction of Youzhou.
Wen Qingzhu also considered this issue: "So I plan to ask Shaoyao for her opinion. She still has family members in the capital, and Feihong won't be back for a while."
In the afternoon, Wen Qingzhu didn't wait for Shaoyao, but instead waited for Yang Dong.
He was carried on a stretcher.
Wen Qingzhu put down the medical book in his hand, stood up quickly, and ordered his servants to send him into the house.
"Put it down on the couch, it doesn't matter, it's the Marquis who sleeps here every day."
As soon as these words came out, the servant carrying the stretcher immediately lowered his head.
Yang Dong, who was about to speak, also closed his mouth.
They seemed to know something terrible.
After placing Yang Dong, Wen Qingzhu sat on the chair in front of the soft body: "Tell me, what do you want to do?"
Yang Dong immediately became happy: "Madam is really a sweetheart. I was just wondering if there is any better medicine here to help this subordinate get better."
Seeing his anxious look, Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but chuckle: "The medicine I gave you is already the best. What's more, there are more than just traumas in your body. You can't be anxious."
"Oh." Yang Dong's mood instantly dropped.
But soon he said: "I will handle the matter of changing citizenship. You don't need to leave it to Yang Liu. He still has to help the Marquis with his affairs."
Wen Qingzhu was a little disbelieving and glanced at his unable to move body: "Is this okay with you?"
"I can't do it myself, but I have people under me!" Yang Dong almost assured him by patting his chest.
Seeing how persistent he was, Wen Qingzhu left this matter to him.
After leaving the main courtyard, Yang Dong had someone carry him to find Yang Da.
Yang Dazheng, who was listening to a little tune in the courtyard, suddenly heard a ghost crying and a wolf howling.
"Brother! You have to help me!"
This sound scared Yang Da to the point where he almost jumped up and quickly asked the girl singing the ditty to hide.
The girl gave him a resentful look, but still obeyed and hid.
As soon as Yang Dong came in, he quickly stated his purpose.
The girl from Hualou, who was hiding in the dark, listened attentively and finally felt relieved. It seemed that she could do business this time.
In Prince Ning's Mansion.
Li Qing was taking care of her son when the maid suddenly rushed over and said a few words in her ear.
"The opportunity has come!"
Li Qing handed her son over to the nanny and rushed to stop Guanyue who was about to go out.
"Sister! Have you used up the rouge I gave you last time?"
Guanyue was a little anxious, but she still saluted calmly: "I've seen my concubine sister, but it hasn't been used yet. Your Highness has been too busy these days and hasn't come back, and I have a lot of things on my side, so I didn't have time." use."
Li Qing reached out and touched Guanyue's face and said, "But I see that my sister's makeup has been carefully taken care of today. Is she going to see His Highness?"
"Of course not, it's just that His Highness told me some things about my concubine. Doesn't my sister still know that His Highness likes bright makeup?"
Guanyue looked around, feeling very worried. Could it be that she had been discovered
"That's true! Let me tell you, if you dare to secretly see His Highness without telling me again, don't blame me for being rude!" Li Qing warned Guanyue as usual, turned around and left with the maid.
Looking at Li Qing's leaving figure, Bieyue let out a long sigh of relief.
She clenched the token in her hand. If she could get things done this time, she would no longer have to devote herself to serving Prince Ning!
To be on the safe side, Guanyue did go to see the manager who usually interacted with her before going out.
After confirming that the person following her was gone, she quietly changed into a sedan chair and headed towards Baiwei Tower.
Jasmine, who was hiding in the crowd, glanced at the direction where Guanyue left, then turned and entered the alley.
Not long after, Li Qing was dressed up and ready to go out, when she met Jiang Yijia and Prince Ning coming in.
"I have met Your Highness." Li Qing calmed down her temper, no longer humble or resentful.
Jiang Yuanan couldn't help but feel a little strange about Li Qing like this.
Normally, he would not have looked at Li Qing twice, but today he rarely asked more: "Where is Qing'er going?"
"I'm waiting here for sister Yijia. We have an appointment to go to Baiweilou." Li Qing walked to Jiang Yijia and held her hand familiarly.
Jiang Yijia smiled and said, "Brother Huang now believes that I really came to see Qing'er."
Jiang Yuanan touched his chin and said nothing.
Jiang Yijia has been getting more and more out of control recently. When he saw Li Qing like this today, he felt the same way.
He suddenly said: "Qing'er, why don't you stay with me at home?"
"Didn't His Highness like Sister Guanyue before? It's rare for Sister Yijia to have an appointment with me. I will accompany Sister Yijia today."
Although Li Qing was reluctant to give up this opportunity, she vaguely understood Wen Qingzhu's words.
Men are all bitches!
There is always a need to hang.
So she declined politely.
Jiang Yuanan felt more and more strange. If Li Qing heard this in the past, she would agree to him without hesitation!
"By the way, Your Highness asked Sister Guanyue to go out to do something. Your Highness is back at this time. She will surely be back soon. If you have the opportunity in the future, get up and come back to accompany Your Highness."
After Li Qing finished speaking, she bowed respectfully and left, taking Jiang Yijia out with her.
As soon as she got on Jiang Yijia's carriage, Li Qing's expression changed and she began to feel jealous: "That bitch Guanyue! No! That bitch Yunxian! How dare you let down His Highness!"
Seeing her change of face like this, Jiang Yijia couldn't help but smile sarcastically.
But soon, her face turned gloomy.
Why should she laugh at others? Isn't she the same!
Jiang Yuanan, who stood motionless at the door, thought for a moment. He had not asked Guanyue to do anything recently.
After a while, Jiang Yuanan raised his head: "Here comes someone! Prepare a car! I am going to Baiwei Tower!"
Half an hour later, Li Qing accompanied Jiang Yijia to sit in the reserved room.
But she was still confused: "How can she be sure that Guanyue and King Chu will be next door?"
Jiang Yijia was not in a good mood. After drinking a glass of wine, her stomach was on fire and she became more and more irritable: "If you don't believe me, go check it out yourself! That woman Wen Qingzhu is much more powerful than you think!"
Seeing Jiang Yijia's temper rising, Li Qing did not dare to say any more.
But I was thinking in my heart, why hasn't His Highness come over at this time
Jasmine stood downstairs and said this to the waiter.
His eyes were watching what was going on behind him.
After a while, Jiang Yuancheng came in low-key.
The winking steward immediately took him upstairs.
After changing to two private rooms, I finally chose the one next door to Li Qingya’s room.
Li Qing was anxious, and suddenly heard Qiu Yue's voice outside the door: "Your Highness, please come inside."
Her mood immediately lifted.
Jiang Yijia was a little impatient and didn't notice the situation outside at all.
"I'll leave first. You can wait here for the emperor."
"Princess!" Li Qing was anxious, but the next second she heard Jiang Yuanan's gloomy scolding.
"Jiang Yuancheng!"
Jiang Yijia instantly raised her head and thought, are we meeting now
She quickly walked over and opened the door, and saw Guanyue being held by one hand by Jiang Yuancheng and Jiang Yuanan.
Guanyue, who was in the middle, looked extremely pale, dripping with cold sweat, and her legs could hardly stand.
When Li Qing came out and saw this scene, she couldn't hide the crazy joy on her face.
