Seeing Mrs. Li's attitude, Mrs. Li knew that she could not count on it.

She was like an ant on a hot pan, spinning around incessantly.

Because of this incident, Li Qinghuan was in a trance all day long. This night, while she was falling asleep, she heard crying from outside.

She opened her eyes, but saw Qian Jiayue standing in front of her, bleeding from seven orifices, it was horrifying.

"Ah!" Li Qinghuan cried out in shock and passed out.

After she woke up, she yelled, "It's not me, it's not me."

Seeing this, Mrs. Li quickly hugged her, "Huan'er, it's all right, be obedient."

"She's here, and she's asking for my life." Li Qinghuan threw herself into Mrs. Li's arms, crying.

Mrs. Li just hugged her tightly and comforted her.

After several times of torment, Li Qinghuan really fell ill again. He stayed in his yard all day, talking to himself, and then suddenly screamed out, which was very scary.

Because Qian Jiayue died before leaving the pavilion, and she committed suicide by taking poison, she could not be buried in the Qian Family Ancestral Temple. She had to find a clean place and was buried like this.

Mrs. Qian has also stayed at the mansion since that day, and it seems that everything is as usual.

Chu Yunjin asked Dongyue to watch secretly, for fear that Mrs. Qian would do something secretly.

The date of Lingji's and Sun Jianxi's wedding has also been fixed.

The emperor specially rewarded Ling Ji with the Princess Mansion as a show of respect.

On the fifteenth day of the next month, it is the reunion of people with a full moon, which means a happy marriage.

The Sun family also attaches great importance to this matter. After all, it is a marriage gift. Although it is a princess from a neighboring country, it is extremely honorable to the Sun family.

Sun Jianxi did not appear in front of Lingji these days.

Lingji also breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since she knew the true face behind his appearance, she knew that she had been tricked.

At this time, she was standing there, and the nuns in the palace came to measure her body, and it was time to prepare the wedding dress.

When Chu Yunjin came in, she saw her frowning, what was she thinking?
"Your Royal Highness." Chu Yunjin stepped forward and saluted respectfully.

"It's just in time." Ling Ji came back to his senses, and looked at her with a smile, "On the day of my wedding, you should go to watch the ceremony."

"Yes." Chu Yunjin replied with downcast eyes.

"There is one more thing, you have to help me." Lingji tugged at her sleeve and said.

Chu Yunjin was startled, "I don't know what's going on?"

"This..." Lingji thought for a while, and then said, "After I get married, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to Qianyuan. If the father really has something to do, can you go there?"

"This..." Chu Yunjin looked at her, "Your Highness, where are you going?"

"I'll find a way to let you go," she said.

"Think about it, daughter." Chu Yunjin dared not agree.

Lingji stared at her, "What? Are you still worried that I will send you as a hostage?"

"Yes." Chu Yunjin did not deny it.

"Hey." Lingji sighed heavily, "I won't."

Only then did Chu Yunjin say, "Since that's the case, then the minister will agree first."

"Okay." Lingji looked at her with a smile.

Chu Yunjin happened to come to Lingji, came out of the post station, and went to Yuntai Pavilion.

Seeing her coming, the old man stepped forward to salute, "Miss Chu, please."

Chu Yunjin nodded slightly, and went up to the attic.

When she walked into the private room, the pavilion master on the other side of the screen nodded slightly towards her, "Miss Chu is rarely free today."

"I don't know why today, but I want to play chess with the pavilion master." Chu Yunjin said.

"Please." The Pavilion Master whispered.

Chu Yunjin nodded slightly, and the two sat opposite each other, but he was wearing a bamboo hat, so he couldn't see his face or eyes clearly.

The two played chess there quietly. In fact, she was a little restless and wanted to use this to calm down.

The old man retreated.

I don't know how long it has passed, Chu Yunjin smiled, "It seems that today is a bad start."

"Miss Chu has something on her mind." He looked at her.

"Yes." Chu Yunjin replied calmly.

"In that case, let's sit quietly here." The Pavilion Master said.

"Thank you." Chu Yunjin said softly.

The pavilion master didn't say much, but sat quietly opposite.

The two continued to play chess, but they didn't say a word.

It wasn't until evening that Chu Yunjin glanced at the sky before sighing, "Continue another day?"

"Okay." The Pavilion Master readily agreed.

Chu Yunjin got up, leaned towards him slightly, and left.

The pavilion master got up and watched her leave.

Chu Yunjin got into the carriage, leaning on the lead pillow, and was very preoccupied.

After returning to the mansion, Chu Yunmo was waiting for her.

"big sister."

"Fifth sister, what's the matter?" Chu Yunjin saw that her expression was not very good.

"My mother had a stomachache just now, and she called for a doctor, but it was too late." Chu Yunmo circled around anxiously.

"Don't worry, I'll go and have a look." Chu Yunjin said.

"En." Chu Yunmo nodded, and followed her forward.

When Chu Yunjin arrived at Fifth Madam's courtyard, she saw a maid and woman standing under the eaves, anxious.

She entered, walked into the house, and arrived at the bed.

The fifth master looked up and saw her, and quickly held the fifth lady's cold hand, "Here we come."

The Fifth Madam was already frowning in pain, her head covered in cold sweat, and when she saw that it was Chu Yunjin, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu Yunjin walked to the side of the bed, "Fifth Aunt."

"I don't know what's going on with this doctor...he hasn't arrived yet." The fifth master muttered aside.

Chu Yunjin quickly checked the fifth lady's pulse, turned to look at Shuang Jiang, and muttered a few words.

After a while, Shuang Jiang rushed back, handing over silver needles and a porcelain bottle with both hands.

Chu Yunjin opened the porcelain bottle, dissolved a pill in warm water, and let the fifth lady drink it.

After the fifth lady drank, her brows relaxed a little.

Chu Yunjin gave her needles, and gradually, Fifth Madam's stomach pain disappeared.

After a while, she pulled out the silver needle, and the silver needle changed color.

"Poisonous?" The fifth master saw it at a glance.

"What did the Fifth Aunt use today?" Chu Yunjin asked.

"It's the same as usual." Fifth Madam said, "Anti-fetal medicine, I ate almond cake."

Almond shortbread?
Chu Yunjin raised his eyes and glanced, "Are there any left?"

"Yes." Fifth Madam nodded.

Chu Yunjin saw the girl not far away bring the rest over.

Chu Yunjin took a piece and tasted it, and seemed to smell a goat's milk wine.

"Fifth Aunt, have you eaten goat's milk wine?" she asked.

"Ah?" Fifth Madam shook her head, "No, how could I eat goat's milk wine?"

"Then this almond cake..." Chu Yunjin asked, "Where did you buy it?"

"It was made by the new cook in the small kitchen." The nurse at the side replied.

"Where are people?" Chu Yunjin asked.

"It's outside." Mammy said, and called the cook in.

"I've met the eldest lady." The cook was still in good health.

"Is there goat's milk in this almond cake?" Chu Yunjin looked at her.
