Ning Chen loves his wife

Chapter 422 Come One Step Late

Come one step later

Butler Zhou anxiously spends his days outside the door like years.This time the prime minister's killing spree in the mansion even surprised him!
He vaguely felt that the prime minister would not be so impatient to kill in order to prevent the succession of the family, there must be something else wrong!
But this time the prime minister kept it a secret from him, so how could he dare to ask more questions.

A quarter of an hour later, the boy left and returned, and brought the housekeeper Qing'er.

Qing'er stood on the threshold and looked at Butler Zhou outside the door. "I heard that the housekeeper of the prime minister's mansion is looking for my eldest son?"

Seeing Qing'er's extraordinary temperament, Steward Zhou did not dare to offend, after all, now he has something to ask for, he clasped his fists and said, "I am the steward of the prime minister's residence, and following my master's order, I specially invited the genius doctor Yan Huichun to visit the residence. "

Qing'er looked coldly and said: "It's not a coincidence that you came here. An hour ago, the genius doctor Yan Huichun followed my eldest son and the fifth prince to Qingxi Town in the north for disaster relief."

What? !Come late? !Butler Zhou was shocked.

Qing'er explained with a cold expression: "The holy decree ordered the fifth prince to go to Qingxi Town for disaster relief. My eldest son was worried that the road would be dangerous and set off with the fifth prince, and the genius doctor Renxin Rende insisted on going to rescue the dying and heal the wounded. If If the housekeeper doesn't believe it, he can go to the Fifth Prince's mansion and ask in person."

Butler Zhou didn't say anything, cupped his hands, turned around, got into the carriage and left quickly.

The coachman hurried to the door of the fifth prince's mansion.

Eunuch Quancai met Zhou Steward in the side hall. "I don't know why the butler came to the door?"

Steward Zhou bowed to Quan Cai and said: "According to the prime minister's order, I specially invite the Fifth Prince to come over to the residence for a briefing."

Quancai said with a strange face: "How come the Prime Minister doesn't know, the Holy One issued an imperial decree early in the morning, ordering my master to go to Qingxi Town in the north to relieve the disaster. It has been a long time since I left, I am afraid that I cannot meet the request of the Prime Minister."

The fifth prince really went to the north for disaster relief!Steward Zhou was anxious, but asked calmly: "I really don't know about this matter, it's such an unfortunate coincidence. Qingxi Town in the north is a long way away, but you have always been inseparable from the Fifth Prince, why didn't you follow him to serve you? Without you by my side By the way, the Fifth Prince might not be used to it." The flattery was not forgotten in the routine.

Quancai squinted his eyes and looked at Steward Zhou with deep meaning, "Master Jing is inseparable from master, when did he become a miscellaneous family? With Master Jing accompanying master to Qingxi Town for disaster relief, miscellaneous families are naturally very relieved."

Jing Rong really went to Qingxi Town in the north with the Fifth Prince to provide disaster relief, so the people in the Jing Mansion did not lie, so the genius doctor also went there!

Bad thing!How to explain to the prime minister after going back? !
Butler Zhou wanted to go back to the manor immediately, but he just sat down, so he had to find a perfect excuse to leave.Seeing Quancai suddenly concerned, he said, "Young one, the manager's voice is not quite right. Are you feeling unwell?"

Quan Cai coughed cooperatively and said: "The miscellaneous family has a cold, but the housekeeper has good eyesight." It was all caused by Jing Rong!What kind of tea do you drink while sitting in the snowy yard in winter!

Housekeeper Zhou got up immediately and said: "Since the manager is not feeling well, please rest more, the younger one just returned home to report."

"The miscellaneous family will not send the butler away." Quancai stood up and watched Butler Zhou leave.With sinister eyes, what is the prime minister's intention in sending the butler to the Fifth Prince's Mansion?Did he really not know that the Fifth Prince was sent to Qingxi Town for disaster relief by an imperial decree, or did he know he wanted to test something?
Steward Zhou left the Fifth Prince's Mansion and ordered the coachman to hurry back to the Prime Minister's Mansion immediately.

Steward Zhou didn't go to see the prime minister as soon as he got out of the carriage, but immediately secretly sent people to chase the Fifth Prince's men and horses along the way. He must chase the genius doctor Yan Huichun back in the shortest possible time!

Then I straightened my clothes and hair and went to Aoxue Pavilion to meet the prime minister.

Third Aunt came out from the inner room to meet Steward Zhou. "What did the steward tell me, the master is not feeling well and is sleeping."

Steward Zhou stepped forward to salute and hurriedly said: "Third Aunt, this is not acceptable, the servant's report is a big matter, please wake up the master."

Seeing Steward Zhou's anxious expression, San Yiniang also became anxious, turned around and went back to the room to wake up the prime minister.

Not long after, the sound of the prime minister just waking up came from the room. "Come in."

Steward Zhou immediately walked into the inner room.

Without the prime minister's instructions, San Yi Niang immediately stood up in a considerate manner and said, "Master, I ordered the kitchen to cook lotus seed soup for you. I will go and see if it is ready."

The prime minister nodded in agreement, watched San Yiniang leave, and turned his gaze to Butler Zhou.

Before the Prime Minister could ask, Steward Zhou immediately reported back, telling the truth about the fact that he went to the Jing Mansion but did not see the miracle doctor, and went to the Fifth Prince's Mansion.

"After the servant returned to the mansion, he immediately sent the secret guards to chase after him. It's just that it may take a day to recover the genius doctor."

The prime minister was very satisfied with Steward Zhou's improvisation, so he pondered for a while.The gangster said that the poison he gave him would take a month to come out, so there were still 25 or [-] days left, so there was no rush in terms of time, just impatient.

But at this point, he has no choice but to wait.

It's just a coincidence that he wanted to seek treatment from Yan Huichun, but he left with the Fifth Prince.Could it be... the Holy Spirit did it on purpose?
Seeing that the Prime Minister didn't make trouble, Steward Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, and reminded him, "I don't know about offering rewards for famous doctors...?"

The prime minister looked at him tiredly. "Be prepared, all the doctors who reveal the list are invited to come into the mansion to diagnose and treat the truth."

"Yes." Housekeeper Zhou bowed his head in response, and now he is more certain that apart from being unable to carry on the family line, the Prime Minister may also have other strange poisons in his body.Suddenly remembered something and continued: "Master, just now when I returned to the mansion, I heard from the gatekeeper that the Empress Dowager sent Nanny Yao to visit Madam in the main courtyard, do you see...?"

The prime minister's eyes darkened. "Go and entertain Mother Yao on behalf of the truth."

"Yes." Steward Zhou led the order to retreat to the main courtyard, and learned that Nanny Yao was in the wife's room, so he waited in the courtyard.

Inside the room, outside the room.

All the court ladies brought by Nanny Yao stood outside, including Yinqiao and the others.

In the inner room, Mrs. Li was sitting on the bed, and Nanny Yao was standing beside them, only the two of them.

Nanny Yao took a look at Mrs. Li's appearance, but no scars could be seen on her face, she bowed her head and handed over a letter. "A letter from the Queen Mother."

Mrs. Li took it, opened the envelope and took out the letter to read silently.

In the letter, the Empress Dowager severely accused Mrs. Li of being anticlimactic and not clean enough.

Since Zhuo Shiqing's heir could be killed by poisoning, why couldn't he just poison him to death in the first place?

As a result, there will be endless troubles, and you will suffer the consequences.

First he was beaten, then he was grounded, more success than failure.

The words in the letter were sharp, and the language was so sharp that Li's scolding was all over the place.

After scolding, the Queen Mother comforted her in a letter.

Now that things have happened, it's too late to regret, so it's better to make up for it.

In this incident, recuperating from an injury is equivalent to a foot ban, and the ban will be lifted after the injury is healed.

Let her recuperate well, and think about what to do in the future quietly during the recuperation period.

After reading the letter, Mrs. Li remained silent for a long time.
