Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 86 Miscalculation
When Li Sheng came back last night, he briefly talked with Li Taiwei about the Jingzhao Mansion.

The third master of the Bai family and the Bai family have pleaded guilty, and the case can be concluded only after waiting for the trial tomorrow.

But Li Taiwei didn't sleep well all night, and always felt that something was missed.

When it was dawn, Huayan pushed the door in from the outside and called out to the princess.

Li Taiwei didn't sleep well, his head was a little heavy, and he glanced sideways at Huayan.

With her back to the light, Li Taiwei couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, only vigilantly heard that there was something wrong with her tone just now.

"what happened?"

As soon as she made a sound, she realized that her voice was extremely hoarse. Li Taiwei sat up, cleared her throat, Huayan poured hot tea and handed it to her.

Li Taiwei took a sip, moistened her throat, and when she turned her face, she caught a glimpse of Huayan's reddish eyes, as if she had just cried.

Mrs. Li frowned slightly, stared at her for a while, and then asked:
"But what happened?"

Hua Yan took the teacup, put it on the dressing table beside the couch, paused, and said:
"It was just now that news came from the Jingzhao Mansion that the second lady had committed suicide by cutting her wrists at night."

Li Taiwei shivered slightly, her mind suddenly cleared up, she stared at Huayan in a daze, and said in surprise:
"What? When did it happen? How are people doing now?"

Huayan shook her head:

"I was so cold when I found out. The jailer said that the second wife is a noble person. Yesterday, because the old lady of the Bai family suddenly disappeared, Master Qiu postponed the court trial, and she has not yet been convicted. The jailer did not remove her hairpin jewelry. The second lady is In the middle of the night, I cut my wrist with a hairpin."

"The news has just come back to the mansion. The Qiutang Courtyard is completely in chaos. The old lady took Nanny Sun and went there in person. The Prime Minister got the news and went to the second room. I'm afraid they are discussing how to deal with Bai's funeral."

The Bai family's crimes are extremely heinous, and they are suspected of murdering the imperial court official. Although this matter has temporarily suppressed the Li family, but if it comes to it, the Bai family cannot set up a spirit in the Li family.

Li Taiwei thought for a while and asked:

"What's going on with my mother? Can someone keep watch?"

Flower flue:
"Mother Tian and Nanny Jin are staying in the madam's room. Nianxia and Dafu have gone to Qiutang Yard to help and visit the second son and fourth girl."

Li Taiwei sighed, turned to look at Huayan, and said:
"Why did you cry just now?"

Bai's deserved what he deserved, and as far as Li Taiwei was concerned, apart from pity for the second-fang siblings, there would not be much sadness in his heart.What's more, Huayan is not from the Li family in the first place, so she will never shed tears because of Bai's death.

Hua Yan sniffed, but she didn't hide it, and said in a low voice:

"Before dawn, the master sent a letter, saying that Jing Zhe, who had been following Li Wenxiu, hadn't returned for many days. Last night when he asked people to search quietly, he was found under the cliff behind the academy. He was seriously injured and comatose, and his life and death are unknown at the moment."

Jingzhe, like Huayan, was raised in the Lu family's barracks since she was a child. As a secret guard, she has a bond that can trust each other to life and death.

But Li Wenxiu, a scholar, how could he easily hurt an old widower, and still be so seriously injured?

Li Taiwei's complexion sank:
"How about the Awakening of Insects martial arts?"

Huayan thought for a moment, Weng said:

"Apart from Gu Yu in the dark guards, Jing Zhe is the best in martial arts, and when it comes to lightness kung fu, Jing Zhe is far above Gu Yu."

"What can Lu Shizi find out?"

Huayan shook her head.

Li Taiwei frowned, thought for a while, now Jing Zhe has not woken up, but there is nothing to check.

Could it be that there are many masters hidden around Li Wenxiu?
But as a guest in the prime minister's mansion, his father's staff will definitely be placed beside him, how could he not be aware of this at all?

Besides, this Jingzhe... Li Taiwei vaguely remembered that in his previous life, after Gu Yu's death, he took over the post of Deputy Commander of the Forbidden Army, and he was very skillful!It would be a pity if he died at this time
"The manor is in chaos today, and I won't go out, so you find a free time to visit Jingzhe,"

Li Taiwei ordered,

"You can take as many medicinal materials and supplements as you need from my private treasury. Don't worry about it. If someone else asks, you can just say that I asked you to take it to visit the second son of the Lu family."

Hua Yan was stunned for a moment, and thankfully saluted Li Taiwei.

Li Taiwei nodded in response:
"Fresh and change for me, I'll go to see my mother."

In Yunshui's house, Zhaohe rested on the couch with red eyes, without saying a word, looking haggard.

Mother Tian and Nanny Jin persuaded her earnestly at the side, saying that this was Bai's bad retribution, and told Zhao He not to take it to heart.

Seeing Li Taiwei coming in, Tian's mother showed a smile on her face, and hurriedly called the kitchen to bring tremella and lotus seed soup, and then secretly winked at Li Taiwei.

Mrs. Li nodded secretly, walked to Zhaohe and sat down.

"Mother is still worried about Bai's death?"

Li Taiwei stroked Zhaohe's hand and persuaded:

"It's all about karma. Mother has thought about it. If she got it yesterday, this time will be the time when the daughter and father will be broken."

As soon as Zhaohe heard this, he tightly held Li Taiwei's hand, his eyes were full of sadness, and he said after a long time:

"I also know that she has committed a heinous crime, but after all, the children who have been in love with my sister-in-law who have been pretending to be in front of me for so many years are very good. Now that Mrs. Bai is gone, I'm afraid we have completely settled down with the second room." "

Li Taiwei couldn't help thinking of her previous life, the two elder brothers went through fire and water for her, and felt emotional for a moment:

"Ms. Bai committed a crime, and if she dies today, it will be wiped out. We will treat the second wife as usual, and if they need help, we will not stand by."

Showa nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Our girls are kind-hearted!"

Tian's mother put the lotus seed soup brought by the maid on the table, waved to Li Taiwei, and said:
"If someone else meets someone with such a poisonous heart, even if she is widowed, she will be considered light!"

Nanny Jin also nodded and agreed:
"Fortunately, yesterday our princess had a lot of eyes, if there was a mistake between the madam and the young prince, wouldn't it really make her go away!"

"I don't know how the Prime Minister discussed with the old lady? If the old slave sees that the Bai family is so devoid of conscience, they are not worthy of setting up spirits in our Li family!"

Li Taiwei didn't want Zhaohe to worry about Bai Shi anymore, so she got up and sat down at the table to drink soup, tilted her head and said with a smile:
"How does Mammy know that my mother's birth is definitely a child?"

Grandma Jin also laughed when she heard the sound:

"Our wife is blessed, this child is twins, one of them must be a brother!"

"When Huichun went to Yunye Nunnery to pray for his wife, the old slave gave him 20 taels of sesame oil in private. He will definitely bless our wife to get a boy in one fell swoop and give Xiangye a little son!"

When mentioning Huichun, Madam Tian's face darkened, she glanced at Zhaohe, and said to Li Taiwei:
"According to the Princess, can Huichun still be kept?"

Showa was surprised and said:
"What happened to Echun?"

Nanny Tian sighed, and then said something about Hui Chun's eating and drinking.

Before Zhaohe could make a sound, Jin Nanny said angrily:

"How can such a lowly maid keep her? She should have been beaten to death in the first place!"

After saying that, considering Zhaohe's pregnancy, Nanny Jin clasped her hands together again, and said a few words about Amitabha, still bitterly saying:
"Even if the death penalty can be avoided, the life penalty cannot be escaped!"

"That day Hongzhu came to Madam to intercede for her, never thought that she would be such a ignorant person!"

Li Taiwei's eyes trembled, the hand stirring the lotus seed soup stopped, and asked:

"Hong Zhu came to intercede for her?"

Nanny Tian nodded and told Li Taiwei about the events of that day.

Seeing Li Taiwei's expression changed, Zhaohe said worriedly:

"What? But what's wrong?"

Li Taiwei got up suddenly, left a sentence "I'm going to Qiutang Courtyard to see my second brother", and ran out.

Showa was worried, and hurriedly asked Tian's mother to follow.

Li Taiwei just stepped into the Begonia Courtyard, and saw Li Pu in filial piety, staring blankly at the courtyard covered with white plain onyx.

"Second brother!"

Li Taiwei pulled Li Pu over and asked anxiously:
"Did Hong Zhu accompany you to Jingzhao Mansion last night? Has she ever seen Bai...your mother?"

Li Pu's face was pale, he looked at Li Taiwei for a while before regaining his senses, nodded, and said in a hoarse voice:
"When we left, she stepped forward and kowtowed to my mother."

Li Tai frowned slightly:
"Where is Hongzhu now?"

Mrs. Zhao happened to pass by, and heard Li Taiwei's voice, came over and said:
"Hong Zhu went to the firewood room to deliver food to Nanny Qin and went to the princess, what happened?"

"not good!"

Li Taiwei was shocked:
"Go and save Mother Qin!"
