Chapter 51
After Lin Jinhua sent Zhao Huaiyan away, she sat alone in the gazebo outside the courtyard and was lost in thought.
Mo Feng and Yang's mother watched from a distance, a little worried: "Mom, go get the cloak for the young lady."
Mama Yang knew that she had something to say to the young lady, so she tactfully withdrew.
After Mo Feng watched the people leave, he stepped forward, looked at Lin Jinhua who was wearing thin clothes, and said softly, "Miss, the tea is cold, and this servant will replace it with a hot one for you."
Lin Jinhua looked at the gray sky in the distance, covered with overcast clouds, as if a storm was about to come. Hearing her words, she smiled slightly: "Okay."
Seeing that she was willing to speak, Mo Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Slave, please say more, after all, the concubine De concubine has been in the palace for so many years, she has cultivated a lot of power, and she has been able to be domineering and arrogant for so many years, not only because of the emperor. Darling, go back, you have to be more careful."
"I understand." How could Lin Jinhua not understand, she has lived two lifetimes.
After a pause, he looked at Mo Feng: "How did you go about hoarding medicinal materials before?"
Mo Feng saw that she took the initiative to ask questions, and smiled slightly: "It's been done, and I left a message to the shopkeepers, saying that once those medicinal materials are newly purchased, they will be sent to the place designated by the servants immediately. But the shopkeeper said that these medicinal materials It is not often used, and it is rare to enter once a year or so.”
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua nodded, looking down at the cold tea in front of her, she didn't mind picking it up and took a sip. The astringent taste of the tea spread from the tip of the tongue to the bone marrow. Although the taste was bitter, the aftertaste was sweet.
She stood up and said softly: "Let's not make any moves for the next few days, wait for half a month." Concubine De is going to make trouble today, and people will definitely stare at her, so I should just think about how to cultivate my own in this half month The manpower is good, and he relies on Zhao Huaiyan everywhere, but one day he can't take care of himself, what should he do?After all, he is also in crisis now.
As she thought this way, she had already slowly walked to the door of Lin Luzhi's room. She only felt relieved when she heard the maid said that he was still awake. Otherwise, if he knew what happened today, he would definitely be furious.
"No one is allowed to tell the master and young master what happened today, you understand?" She lightly instructed the servant.
This young man has also followed Lin Luzhi all year round, and he has also been on the battlefield. This year is approaching thirty, and he is a steady man: "This subordinate understands." After finishing speaking, looking at the young lady in front of him, how many Distributing worries: "Miss, the general has been very prestigious in the barracks all these years, and there are several generals who have good friends with him. If it is really not possible..."
"It's really not possible, can you still plot rebellion?" Lin Jinhua smiled.
He paused for a moment, then quickly lowered his head: "This subordinate dare not."
Lin Jinhua knew he didn't mean that, but at this time the emperor had just withdrawn his father's military power, if they were not sensible enough to go to the people in the military camp, wouldn't they be telling the emperor that even if he withdrew his military power, the people in the military camp would still obey his father?This will only lead to greater disasters.
"There's no need to mention it in the future. Take care of your father. If you can leave the house for a few days, don't leave the house." Lin Jinhua said lightly, then turned and left.
I don't know when the sky began to drizzle, falling with the cold wind.
The young servant looked at the back of Lin Jinhua leaving alone, and felt sorry for Lin Luzhi's daughter in his heart, but he could only sigh and turn his head back to the house.
As soon as Lin Jinhua arrived at the central hall, Wang Ruyan and Mrs. Wang hurried over. The two of them walked in a hurry, as if they had come from another place.
As soon as Mrs. Wang entered the room, she saw the red mark on Lin Jinhua's right face that hadn't faded, and she only sighed softly: "It's too much for Concubine De to embarrass your daughter's family like this." She was as unafraid as Wang Yushi Those powerful people are only for their children, so they should always be more careful and not speak too much.
Wang Ruyan's eyes were red, and she stepped forward and said: "When I came, I heard people talking about your two maids. Fortunately, Prince Ning came in time, otherwise I don't know what will happen. Defei is also a harem. How could someone like you bully a weak woman like this."
Lin Jinhua took her hand and smiled comfortingly: "You don't have to complain for me, the concubine De concubine punished me, and she also blamed me for being ignorant, so I should be punished." She looked outside, Wang Ruyan and Mrs. Wang would feel sorry Seeing that she didn't intend to use them to deal with Concubine De, she liked her more.
Wang Ruyan still cared about Lin Jincheng, but she was too embarrassed to ask, she blushed and held back for a long while without making a sound.
Mrs. Wang asked someone to fetch the plaster before she was pulled to sit down.Seeing her calm expression and peaceful mind, she felt that she was really smart, so she said softly: "There are too many gossips in Lin's residence these days, so you should stay here and not go out."
"I think so too." Lin Jinhua glanced at Mrs. Wang gratefully, knowing that she was sincerely treating her well, she paused, and then said: "It would be great if my grandparents' house is still there, no matter what, it's still good." A true dear."
"The Xu family..." Mrs. Wang thought for a while, but Min lips smiled: "If you don't tell me, I forgot, I heard that the master of the Xu family has written a petition and wants to return to Beijing to repair the ancestral grave. There are also many ministers who seconded the proposal and asked the emperor to transfer the Xu family back to Beijing."
"Really?" Wang Ruyan was very happy. The Xu family was also a respectable family back then. If the Xu family came back, would the old lady and the eldest son of the Lin family dare to bully the Jinhua brothers and sisters like this?
Mrs. Wang smiled and nodded her forehead: "Your mother can tell lies, but your father used to say that if Mr. Xu comes back, he must play chess and drink tea with him."
Lin Jinyu's heart brightened when she heard it, but she was worried that Concubine De hated herself now, would she anger the Xu family because of herself, and play tricks on the Xu family instead?
She thought about it, and then she wondered: "It's a trivial matter for the Xu family to return to office. The only thing I worry about is whether my uncle will be like daddy when he returns to Beijing."
When Mrs. Wang heard this, the smile on her face froze for a moment.There is no reason to add a crime. If Concubine De, Zhao Kan and the others do not want the Xu family to enter Beijing, or have more vicious methods, they are indeed afraid that something will happen.
Wang Ruyan also became nervous, biting her lip tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.Without the Xu family's help, Mr. Lin might really marry Miss Zheng's family.
"mother……"
"Mrs. Wang, Jin Hua is very grateful for your coming this time. It is better for the Wang family not to get involved in today's matter. Mr. Wang is in the position of censor, and there are already many crises, so there is really no need to interfere with this matter." Wading in the muddy water." Lin Jinhua saw the hesitation in Mrs. Wang's eyes, and she didn't force it, she just smiled.
Mrs. Wang did mean that. The Wang family's safe and sound existence did not depend entirely on the emperor's trust.The affairs of the court are inherently treacherous, let alone the dispute between King Ning and King Jing has gradually been involved.The dispute between the court and the party is a taboo for the official censor.
Seeing that Lin Jinzheng was sensible, she felt more and more emotional. She just held her hand affectionately and smiled helplessly: "I really can't help you with this matter. It would be great if I could see the Queen Mother. The old ancestor of the Xu family was handkerchiefed by the Queen Mother back then. It’s just that after so many years, the Queen Mother has been in seclusion and can’t sincerely worship the Buddha, and she doesn’t want to see anyone except for Buddhist affairs.”
Mrs. Wang got up after she finished speaking, and then turned around and asked someone to bring 200 taels of silver bills to her: "I can't do much, your family of three just moved out, and I'm afraid it won't be enough for you. Take the power for a small use."
Lin Jinhua understood Mrs. Wang's advice, and knew that she was in a dilemma, so she didn't force it, but she just smiled and said, "I still have some money, Madam, why don't you use it to buy some medicine."
"Medicine?" Mrs. Wang was puzzled, Lin Jinhua turned her head and asked someone to wait for her pen and ink, and quickly wrote a prescription for her.Just now as soon as he entered the door, he saw her dry mouth and internal heat, vomiting symptoms from time to time, so when she grabbed him, he took her pulse conveniently, it was an irregularity caused by the depression in her heart.
When Mrs. Wang saw the prescription, she still couldn't understand it, and then she thought of her physical discomfort these past few days, she was somewhat ashamed, even if they are all women, the illnesses brought by women are always difficult to talk about.
She looked at Lin Jinhua's frank look, but smiled helplessly: "You are really a good doctor..." After she finished speaking, she paused, and looked up at her: "Ru Yan's uncle is now serving as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. My mother is seriously ill, which is also a woman's disease, and she refuses to ask for a doctor, so I wonder if I can ask Miss Lin for help."
Minister of the Ministry of Officials?Isn't it just about the transfer of management officials?
She smiled slightly: "Naturally."
"Well, I'll send a car to pick you up when I'm free in a few days." This is not counting as the Wang family's intentional opposition to Concubine De, but also helping Lin Jinhua.After all, with the addition of Wang Yushi and a servant of the official department, the old lady of the Lin family should be more peaceful.
When Mrs. Wang was sent away, Wang Ruyan was still a little bit reluctant: "My mother said that I was afraid that if I stayed, it would cause you trouble instead. When I go back, I will bring you some medicinal materials." I'm ashamed to ask what Lin Jincheng said.
Lin Jinhua saw that her round face was flushed red, and she didn't know why, so she just whispered, "My brother and father are both fine now, as for the marriage, if my father didn't agree, it's impossible to do it."
Upon hearing this, Wang Ruyan lowered her eyes shyly and hurriedly said goodbye and left.
After they left, Mo Feng smiled softly and said, "Miss, feel relieved now, I heard that the old lady of Mrs. Wang's natal family has been in touch with the Queen Mother all these years."
Lin Jinhua blinked her eyes. Since that's the case, she will be very busy these few days.
Concubine De went back to the palace that day and wanted to see the emperor, but the emperor didn't see her at all, and it dragged on for several days until the eve of the Shangyuan Festival.
That night, Lin Jinhua took advantage of the darkness to sneak to the Ninth Prince's Mansion. Mo Xue was not in good health, so she came in a carriage with Mother Yang.
When Zhao Qing saw her at the back corner door, he was a little surprised: "I thought you were afraid to go out."
"Everyone thinks so." That's why she came out smoothly.
Together with Mother Yang, she followed Zhao Qing through several hanging flower doors, and finally arrived at the room where Concubine Jia lived temporarily. This time, she did not see the side concubine Wei Yunyi.
She felt strange, but she didn't ask any questions, she just stepped forward to greet the concubine Jia.
Concubine Jia looked much better, she was sitting on the couch and was embroidering, when she saw her coming, she just smiled and ordered someone to help her up, before she said: "I heard that Concubine De went to your place to make trouble, what's the matter with you?"
"Thank you for your concern, my daughter-in-law is fine." She smiled slightly.
Zhao Qing naturally sat on the side of the concubine Jia, her peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly: "Miss Lin is one of the smartest, although Concubine De is also smart, she has been used to being arrogant and willful by the emperor for so many years. It's too early, I'm afraid Miss Lin's little cleverness won't be useful."
Lin Jinhua smiled, lowered her eyes and replied, "I used to blame the courtiers for their recklessness."
"You still have self-knowledge." Zhao Qing said simply, seeing Concubine Jia glaring at her, she smiled and said nothing, and asked someone to bring an embroidered stool for her to sit down on.
Only then did Lin Jinhua begin to feel the pulse of Concubine Jia, and while taking the pulse, she listened to Concubine Jia: "Mrs. Wang is a kind person. Among all the civil and military wives in the court, she has the best temper, but I saw her many years ago." gone."
Lin Jinhua's eyes jumped slightly, she suddenly mentioned Mrs. Wang, was she trying to imply something?
She didn't ask, seeing that she understood, the concubine Jia continued to smile and said: "I remember the age of Wang's daughter is about the same age as you?"
"My name is Ru Yan, and she is as old as a court lady." Lin Jinhua replied.Withdrawing his hands, he said: "My lady's pulse condition has stabilized. Next, I will change to an ordinary prescription. I will cook three pieces a day, boil three cans into one bowl, and just take it." After finishing speaking, he turned to write the prescription.
Seeing her holding her breath like this, the concubine Jia smiled wider and said: "Your brother's marriage to the Zheng family is not a bad thing. The Emperor must have known Miss Wang's good match long ago. "Wang Yushi is the emperor's most important minister, and his children's in-laws will definitely be valued by the emperor. If the Wang family marries the Lin family, who is at the forefront of the storm at this time, the emperor must be suspicious of Wang Yushi, and then the only person in the court who can tell the truth will be in danger.But the Zheng family is different. General Zheng wants to step on the heart of the Lin family to climb up. Everyone knows, and the emperor also knows that if the Zheng family and the Lin family marry, the emperor will not continue to attack the Lin family, and the Lin family will be able to breathe.
Hearing these words, Lin Jinhua could turn the corner in her mind.If she heard it in the previous life, she would definitely agree, but this life is different, Zheng Ruyi is a scourge, she will kill everyone, so even if she dies, she will never let Zheng Ruyi marry in.
Lin Jinhua wrote the prescription and put it on the candle beside it to dry slowly before handing it to the maid on the side. She smiled at Concubine Jia and said, "Thank you for your advice, Madam."
Seeing her being so respectful, Concubine Jia knew that she was unwilling, so she didn't say any more: "You are a smart boy. Thank you for your hard work today."
"The courtier has other things to do, so I won't take care of you any more." After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, she was about to leave, but the concubine Jia asked again, "When can my concubine return to the palace?"
Zhao Qing frowned slightly: "Mother Concubine, why worry..."
"After all, I am a concubine, so naturally I have to serve in the palace." Concubine Jia took a deep look at him and smiled softly.
Lin Jinyu looked at her gentle appearance, her facial features were full of gentleness, and she also had a bit of gentle temperament, which made people relax. Presumably the emperor didn't like her, there must be other reasons.
"Your Majesty can go back to the palace at any time, as long as you pay attention to drinking the medicine every day." After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, without looking at Zhao Qing's indifferent eyes, she bowed and withdrew.
I found Mama Yang who was staring outside, and planned to go back the same way with her, but when I left the back corner door, I accidentally saw Wei Yunyi who had never shown up before.
Wei Yunyi's complexion became paler, and her already thin face was a little sunken, and her whole body was weak as if she was about to become feathered at any moment. She looked very gloomy in a dark green skirt.
Seeing her coming, Wei Yunyi stepped forward two steps forward with a smile and said, "I knew you were coming, so I waited specially."
Lin Jinhua knew that she had something to say, so she looked at Mama Yang and said, "Mom, go and wait for me outside."
Mother Yang hurriedly responded.
Wei Yunyi looked at her with a smile, seeing her young and healthy appearance, and her exquisite heart, how could she not be envious.
"I'm going away for a while, can I ask you to do me a favor?" She smiled softly.
Lin Jinhua looked at the deep sadness hidden in her eyes, and knew that she might not be able to untie the knot in her heart.And based on her previous life, she won't be able to live long.
She didn't say anything, just said: "The side concubine, please tell me."
"Where is the word command. I just hope that after I leave, you can take care of the Ninth Prince for me." She said this with a smile, but tears welled up in her eyes.
Lin Jinhua frowned subconsciously: "His Royal Highness Prince Ning will take good care of you."
Wei Yunyi shook his head: "No matter how much His Royal Highness Prince Ning takes care of him, he still can't solve his knot. The person who has the knot has never been me, but the Ninth Prince."
Lin Jinhua was surprised, but a servant girl's voice came over: "Side concubine, are you here?"
Wei Yunyi looked at the voice, said no more, just took Lin Jinhua's hand and put something in her palm: "It's for you, if you accept it, you will help me."
"The concubine..."
"This thing can help you a lot." She smiled, and Lin Jinhua looked down. It was a small butterfly-shaped jade, with the word 'Wei' engraved on the back of the jade.
The servant girl's call became louder and louder. Seeing her silence, Wei Yunyi only grasped her hand tightly: "Promise me."
"My daughter-in-law may not agree..."
"Side concubine, you are here, why did you come out by yourself, it's very windy outside." The servant girl had already seen Wei Yunyi, and hurried over.
When Lin Jinhua saw Wei Yunyi saw the maid, there was a bit of coldness in her eyes, and she naturally closed her hand and put the jade butterfly in her palm.
Wei Yunyi glanced at her and smiled, "Thank you."
Lin Jinhua gritted her teeth slightly, did not speak, just watched her being helped away by the maid.As soon as they left, she also turned around and went out the door and got into the carriage.
Seeing that her expression was gloomy, Mama Yang asked puzzledly, "Miss, what happened?"
Lin Jinhua leaned on the carriage, turned the jade butterfly out and looked at it for a while, then shook her head: "Does Mom know anything about the Wei family?"
"The Wei family?" Yang's mother thought for a while: "The Wei family has long been lonely, and there have been only a few rumors about the Wei family in the capital for so many years, and the side concubine Wei has always kept a low profile, so the slaves don't know much, only Wei Wei. The former wife of the family seems to be from southern Xinjiang."
"Southern Xinjiang?" Lin Jinhua didn't remember people from Southern Xinjiang getting involved in her previous life. She lowered her eyes to look at the jade butterfly in her palm, and put it away in her sleeve without thinking about it.
The carriage ran for a while before it finally stopped. The people waiting at the entrance of the alley saw her coming, so they rushed up to greet her: "Miss Lin."
"Master, I'm sorry to have waited for a long time." Lin Jinhua did not get out of the carriage, only across the carriageway.
Huijue lowered his head with a bamboo hat, and rolled his eyes a few times: "Miss Lin, the poor monk dare not come out of Dingnanhou's mansion now, I'm afraid I can't do what you want."
Lin Jinhua knew that he had asked him to publicize that Zhao Kan would cause an epidemic before alluding to it, so she smiled slightly: "Master, don't worry, you will be able to go out soon. After you go out, do something for me immediately."
"What's the matter?" Huijue was relieved to see that she didn't force herself to go out.
"I want you to enter the palace and meet the Empress Dowager." Since the Empress Dowager believes in Buddhism, Huijue, a living Bodhisattva, is the best way to speak.
"Mother... Empress Dowager?" Huijue only felt a little guilty. He knew how much he had. He still dared to fool ordinary ladies. If it was the Empress Dowager, how would he dare.
Lin Jinhua looked at his timid look through the curtain of the car, and raised her brows slightly: "Master, what are you afraid of? What you say will come true one after another. You are a living Bodhisattva, so why not be afraid of seeing the Queen Mother?"
"But..." He was still worried: "The queen mother is no different from ordinary wives. For her sake, she already has no desires or desires. What?"
Want nothing?
Lin Jinhua didn't believe it. After Zhao Kan ascended the throne in her previous life, the queen mother died strangely. At that time, she didn't understand it. She just thought it was really old and died of illness. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid it was the hands of Concubine De and the people behind her. .If so, the queen mother must be their threat. Besides, the queen mother stepped on bones in the harem to become a high-ranking queen mother. Fighting is born, so there is no reason to really give up.
"I don't want you to turn things around, you just need to coax the queen mother well, and you can pass a few words at the critical moment." Lin Jinhua said.
Huijue still felt that something was wrong. This carelessness was a crime of beheading.
He looked at the people in the carriage and said, "Miss Lin, is this too risky? Besides, what you say and what I say will come true. How is this possible?"
"Why is it impossible? The period of half a month is coming soon. After the outbreak of the epidemic, among the palace concubines, the empress and several favored concubines will be infected, and the four princes, seven princes, nine princes and ten princes outside the palace will also be infected. , the fourth concubine will give birth to a son in half a month, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this!" She said lightly.
What she said was ordinary, but Huijue's legs were weak: "The person behind you has the ability to fight like this?"
The corner of Lin Jinyu's mouth curled up: "Master doesn't believe it, just wait a little longer, news will come out one after another within these two days, and you will only get the reputation of being an afterthought if you talk about it again."
"This..." He began to struggle, he didn't want to lose face or wealth.
Seeing him like this, Lin Jinhua had already guessed how he would choose, so she didn't say any more and let the carriage go.
Huijue watched the carriage leave for a long time, then gritted his teeth: "If you gamble, you gamble!"
The night passed smoothly.
The second day is Shangyuan Festival.
On the Lantern Festival, the people in the capital will hang lanterns in every household, enjoy lanterns, and guess lantern riddles. The children of rich families will do things to pay homage to their relatives, or go to the grave to offer incense and hang a big lantern. blessing lanterns.
Lin Jinhua got up early in the morning, changed into a crescent white long gown, and was about to go out wearing a red cloak with a white fringe.
Mother Yang helped pack up the things for worship, Bai Lan ran in excitedly, and said happily, "Miss, the young master is awake."
Lin Jinhua smiled. It was just an infection. Drink the medicine and rest well, and you will wake up naturally.
She was about to go to have a look, but the old lady who was guarding the door hurried over and said in a panic: "Miss, the old lady brought Miss Zheng together, and said that she would accompany you to pay homage to Madam."
When Bai Lan heard Zheng Ruyi's name, her face darkened, she turned her head and ran to Lin Jincheng's room, but Lin Jinhua didn't stop when she wanted to.
"That's all, put away the things first, let's go and have a look." After finishing speaking, he stepped forward to the second door.
The yard was small, and it took a few steps to reach the end. At this moment, the old lady was waiting at the door with Zheng Ruyi.
Zheng Ruyi also changed into plain clothes today, but the old lady still wore a bright green embroidered dress, her hair was combed meticulously, and she looked very wealthy.
When she saw Lin Jinhua approaching, her face was gloomy, and she said coldly, "You still want to stop me? After all, I am your grandmother. Even if you move out, can you be so disrespectful and disfilial?"
Seeing that she still had a thick face, Lin Jinhua admired her, so she smiled slightly and said, "Grandmother is here, and Jinhua is at a loss to welcome her. Come here, please old lady sit down in the flower hall, and present the best from West Lake Longjing.”
"I'm going now, servant girl." A servant girl responded immediately.
Seeing that she was savvy, the old lady just snorted softly and walked in.
As soon as she passed Lin Jinhua, Lin Jinhua went out with Mama Yang, who was carrying a basket.
Zheng Ruyi saw it, and immediately grabbed the old lady, looked back at Lin Jinhua with a bit of grievance, and said, "Miss Seven, don't you even want to share the same room with me?"
Lin Jinhua frowned slightly, turned sideways and before she could speak, she heard a weak male voice say, "This is Lin's Mansion, not Zheng's Mansion. Jinhua can go wherever she wants, as long as she is willing."
Hearing this voice, Lin Jinhua frowned secretly, seeing Bai Lan who was helping him out, she didn't speak.
Zheng Ruyi looked at Lin Jincheng who had come out unexpectedly, bit her lips slightly, her eyes filled with mist, and said timidly, "Jincheng..."
When Lin Jincheng heard her calling his name weakly, if he had done it before, he would have softened his heart a long time ago, but now he felt inexplicably disgusted.
He only frowned slightly and remained polite: "Miss Zheng, please respect yourself."
self-respect?
Zheng Ruyi's face turned red, and Lin Jincheng had never brushed her face like this before when she was angry.
Her tears fell instantly, and she looked at him pitifully: "Mr. Lin, do you actually despise me so much?"
The maid next to her hurriedly said: "Mr. Lin, do you know that when your accident happened, my lady knelt down in front of the Bodhisattva for a whole day, just to beg the Bodhisattva to bless you. After you were injured and fell asleep, my lady didn't even think about eating. I don't want to, I can't sleep peacefully day and night, and I'm losing weight..."
Lin Jinhua clenched her fists slightly, how long will this pitiful beauty trick of Zheng Ruyi be used?In her previous life, she lured her brother step by step into the net like this, and then brutally killed him after using it...
Lin Jinhua didn't dare to think about it anymore, although Lin Jincheng's eyes moved, he still said indifferently: "Miss Zheng's kindness, Lin appreciates it."
Zheng Ru thought that he was still unmoved like this, and the hand holding the handkerchief had already begun to clenched tightly.
The old lady immediately frowned and said in a low voice: "Why did you talk to Miss Zheng, you have already made a marriage contract with her..."
"In the matter of children's marriage, if the grandfather is present, then the grandfather is in charge. If the grandfather is dead, then the father is in charge. Grandmother always wants Jinhua to learn the three obediences and four virtues. Why did she forget?" Lin Jincheng said indifferently.
The old lady's face froze: "Is this your attitude when talking to your grandmother?"
"Jincheng considers himself respectful, and has never done anything unfilial to his step-grandmother. On the contrary, it is the step-grandmother who insulted her before, and I still hear it in my ears. I dare not forget it." After Lin Jincheng finished speaking indifferently, he glanced at Bai Lan beside him: "Bai Lan, see off the guests."
"You—!" The old lady was so angry that she couldn't speak when she heard the word 'step-grandmother', and now she saw that he was as rude as Lin Jinhua, and even furious, but Lin Luzhi was not there , no one cares whether she dances or not.
Bai Lan stepped forward: "Madam Lin please, Miss Zheng please."
Zheng Ruyi's eyes were very red: "If Mr. Lin doesn't want me, I'll just throw myself into the river." After saying that, she ran out crying.
Lin Jincheng frowned. Seeing this, the old lady just snorted coldly: "The marriage between you and Miss Zheng was also decided by the Empress Defei. If you forced Miss Zheng to death, I think you have a few lives to pay for."
"Grandmother's only grandson killed the eldest grandson of the Zheng family, and she was sentenced to death. She's just the eldest daughter, so what are you afraid of?" Lin Jinzheng looked at her with a sneering chill.Seeing that they have nothing to gain from themselves, they start to use elder brother, they don't even think about it!
The old lady has always said that she can't stand Lin Jinhua. Looking at her cold eyes, she always feels a chill creeping up the mountain from the bottom of her feet, and she just glanced at her secretly: "Since your father hasn't woken up, I won't stay any longer. When he wakes up, you should do the same." Go back to Lin Mansion to live!" After saying that, he turned his head and led the people away.
After watching her leave, Lin Jincheng held onto the door and coughed violently.
Bai Lan hurried over to support him and said with concern: "My lord, are you alright, this servant will help you back to your room first."
Lin Jincheng shook his head slightly, looked up at Lin Jinhua, and smiled slightly: "Going to worship mother?"
Lin Jinhua glanced at the worried Bai Lan, nodded, and said, "Bai Lan, I seem to have left some candles in the room, can you bring them for me?"
Hearing this, Bai Lan was a bit reluctant, but she nodded and looked at Lin Jincheng: "Young Master, this servant will come whenever you go."
Lin Jincheng also noticed Bai Lan's special affection for him, nodded, and recruited his own servant to wait on him before approaching Lin Jinhua: "Bai Lan will tell you more about what happened in the mansion before, Jinhua, you have been wronged."
Seeing the apology and distress in his eyes, Lin Jinhua smiled sweetly: "I'm fine, my brother is not in good health, let's rest at the mansion so that I can take care of my father, mother can understand."
"But you go alone, I'm worried..."
"Brother, don't worry, they don't have time to trouble me today." Now Lin Jinhua was probably at her wits end, bending her eyes and smiling slightly.
Seeing her cunning look, Lin Jincheng was both sad and distressed. A younger sister at his age should be at home without any worries, yet he has to bear so much alone.
"Don't worry, brother won't be confused, and will definitely protect you." Lin Jincheng slightly raised the corners of his lips, and gently raised his hand to rub her head.
Lin Jinhua's heart was warm, no amount of suffering seemed to be considered suffering.
Lin Jinhua asked someone to send Lin Jincheng back, and when Bai Lan came, he took a deep look at her and said, "Cai'er is getting better, and I plan to send her to Zhuangzi to recuperate, so you can go and discuss with Zhu Wucai today, see Which Zhuangzi is suitable."
"But son, he..."
"Miss Bailan, the young master has someone to take care of him. As a girl, you stay by his side all day long. Wouldn't it be difficult to match him in the future?" Mother Yang also reminded her.
Bai Lan's eyes turned red suddenly, thinking that Lin Jinhua was unwilling, she just lowered her eyes and nodded, but couldn't help the hoarseness of her throat: "I'm going now, servant girl." After saying that, she turned her head and ran away.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua only sighed slightly.It's not that she doesn't want to, it's just that she doesn't want to see Bai Lan follow her brother to do housework. Besides, seeing what her brother means, he has no interest in Bai Lan. After marrying a wife, where will Bai Lan be?
"Miss, do you want your servant to persuade Miss Bailan again?" Mother Yang asked worriedly.
Lin Jinhua shook her head slightly: "No need, after a while, I will have a good talk with her. If she still insists on doing so then, I won't force her anymore." Lin Jinhua sighed lightly, then turned her head and went out .
When leaving, he specifically asked the carriage to pass through the Seventh Prince's Mansion first, and then King Jing's Mansion.
Although the coachman didn't understand, he did it anyway.
When passing by the Seventh Prince's Mansion, after waiting for a short while, I saw the doctor inside stumbled and ran out with a panicked look on his face. Not long after, another doctor was thrown out, and the servant inside was still yelling: "Quack doctor!"
The doctor did not dare to speak with a bitter face, and when the boy returned, he patted his body in a hurry, as if he was afraid of getting something dirty, he hurried away.
Mother Yang still didn't understand: "What's going on inside?"
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly: "Go to the gate of Prince Jing's Mansion."
At this moment, Zhao Kan was already bored enough that the emperor ordered him to rest in the mansion and not go to the court for the past few days, but he didn't know that the news of Xiong Shuli's death came early in the morning.
"My lord, Mr. Xiang... Mr. Xiong was killed by gangsters at night, and the officials couldn't find anything. Mrs. Xiong and the young master's slaves have already arranged for people to be sent to Xiong's house." The people below said in panic.
"Zhao Huaiyan!" Zhao Kan almost gritted his teeth and said these words.
"What does the lord mean, Mr. Xiong was the one who did it by King Ning?"
"Who else but him." After Zhao Kan finished speaking, he sneered coldly as if remembering something: "He is very defensive. A mere woman has made him do so many things. It seems that as long as Lin Jinhua is in my hands On the other hand, he would be willing to let him get out of the capital."
The people below listened, rolled their eyeballs, hurriedly came up and said in a low voice: "Then, should we go and catch Lin Jinhua..."
"Idiot." Zhao Kan glared at him fiercely: "You think the father is blind? Although Lin Luzhi was cut off from the military power, who doesn't know that the people in the military camp still listen to him, and Lin Jincheng has also been promoted to the third rank , Although he was looking at the city gate, it shows that the father has not given up on the Lin family, and he may be useful in the future." That's why he insisted on sending Zheng Ruyi to Lin Jincheng's side to watch.
Hearing that, the man was too busy to speak.
The atmosphere here was calm, when someone came outside suddenly: "My lord, the Seventh Prince's residence said that it has been infected with the disease."
"Epidemic?" Zhao Kan was surprised.
Only then did the person next to him remind him: "My lord, Master Huijue of Dingnanhou's mansion said a few days ago that an epidemic will break out in the capital within half a month, all because of your injustice and virtuousness..."
"Snapped--!"
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Kan directly smashed the walnut he was playing with, and stared at him viciously: "Say it again!"
The man hurriedly knelt down and dared not speak any more.
Zhao Kan glanced at him sullenly, and then someone opened the door and called in the people outside: "What's the current situation in the Seventh Prince's Mansion?"
"I heard that the Seventh Prince was suddenly infected with the disease, the doctor frightened him away, and the people in the Seventh Prince's residence were panic-stricken, so he hurriedly ordered people to go to the palace to find an imperial doctor." The man said humanely.
Zhao Kan's face was sullen, and before he could speak, someone rushed over again: "My lord, Master Huijue is at the gate of King Jing's mansion right now."
Zhao Kan was about to look for him, when he heard the words, he just snorted coldly: "I see what evil words he has!" After saying that, he flung his sleeves and left.
At this time, at the gate of King Jing’s mansion, Huijue held back his trembling legs and sighed helplessly to the onlookers: “It’s a disaster, it’s a disaster from heaven, if King Jing doesn’t sincerely worship the Buddha, and the concubine De concubine doesn’t practice purely, this disease will not only make the palace All the favored ladies will be infected, and the Ninth and Tenth Princes will be infected one by one."
As soon as he said this, the people outside all looked terrified.
When Zhao Kan came, he gritted his teeth when he heard these words: "You are bewitching people with your demonic words. Today, this king will do justice for the heavens and kill you, a demon monk!"
When Huijue heard this, he was in danger. He put his hands together and looked straight at him: "The poor monk is not afraid of death, but the suffering of the common people. If the prince is willing to worship the Buddha sincerely, the poor monk will not regret his death."
Zhao Kan snorted coldly, pulled out the servant's knife and slashed at him, but one of the people knelt down immediately: "My lord, you can't kill him!"
"That's right, my lord, I can't kill you."
The people knelt down one after another.
Zhao Kan's face was slightly green, but he would never do anything to the people in front of them.
He held back his breath and only looked at Huijue coldly: "What if the empress and the princes in the palace won't be infected with the disease?"
"The prince can kill the poor monk, and the poor monk will never complain."
"Really? But this king is even more suspicious. You are the one who caused this disease, and you are the one who cast the curse of the epidemic to kill this king and the concubine!" he said coldly.
Huijue glanced at him sympathetically, sighed and shook his head slightly: "My lord, the culprit has already found you, why don't you believe it? Recently your closest relative died unexpectedly?"
Zhao Kan frowned slightly when he thought of Xiong Shuli who had just died.
Seeing that Lin Jinhua's words were really right, Huijue finally let go of his hanging heart, and became more confident. He just put on the airs of a master and said, "If the prince doesn't believe it, it will come true within a few days. The prince If you suspect that the disease was caused by the poor monk, you can go and investigate, but the prince should not go to the fourth prince's mansion these few days..."
"Why?"
"Because the fourth concubine will give birth to a little emperor's grandson in the next few days, if the prince passes by, I am afraid that the epidemic will be recruited." After Huijue finished speaking, the people unconsciously took half a step back.
Zhao Kan clenched his fists tightly, wishing to slash Huijue right now, but he finally held back and said coldly: "Then I want to see if what you said is true. Come on, tell me the truth." This demon monk was taken into custody..."
"Brother Sanhuang is unavoidably unsafe to keep in his own mansion, how about putting him in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion?"
Zhao Qing came out from behind, glanced at Huijue lightly and said.
Lin Jinhua in the carriage raised her eyebrows slightly, wondering why he was here, could it be arranged by Zhao Huaiyan?
"Miss, this Master Huijue looks quite a bit." Mother Yang only smiled.
Lin Jinhua lightly raised the corners of her lips, glanced at Zhao Kan who was holding back his anger and had nowhere to vent his anger, and the smile in his eyes deepened: "Isn't it, a real master."
Concubine De probably knows the news by now, as long as people in the capital start to die, then their good days will come to an end.
"Let's go." Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Lin Jinyu didn't stay any longer, and let the coachman drive out of the city.
As soon as she left, Zhao Qing looked sideways in her direction.
Zhao Kan said in a deep voice, "What are you looking at?"
"It's nothing." Zhao Qing looked back at him lightly: "Come here, brother, there is one more thing to tell Brother Sanhuang."
"what's up?"
"Father and younger brother have allowed me to investigate Lord Xiong's murder. Brother Sanhuang doesn't need to intervene anymore." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Huijue: "Master Wronged has gone to Jingzhao Mansion Prison to stay for a while."
Huijue naturally prefers to go to Jingzhao Mansion, at least he won't be killed by King Jing jumping over the wall in a hurry. Holding back his panic, he clasped his hands together and nodded slowly.
Zhao Kan watched the people being taken away, and Zhao Qing also left on horseback, and then he had a gloomy face: "Go and invite me the Marquis of Dingnan!" The epidemic is spreading as he said, so this time it really fell.
At this moment in the imperial palace, when Concubine De heard the news, her first reaction was to go to the emperor to make decisions, but before she left the Yonghe Palace, she saw that Yun Jiang beside the queen had already brought a group of eunuchs.
She glanced at it with disdain, and said sarcastically, "What advice does the Empress have?"
Yun Jiang saluted with a smile, and then said softly: "Yesterday, after Imperial Physician Liu checked the empress's pulse, she found that the empress was already infected with the epidemic disease. The empress was ordered by the emperor. Starting today, the empress will be confined to the Yonghe Palace and not allowed to take half a step."
"Foot grounding? Heh..." Concubine De seems to have heard a big joke: "I have been in the palace for so many years, and I have never been grounded. Let me see who dares to stop me today!" After she finished speaking, she was about to go forward However, the group of eunuchs quickly stepped forward and stopped him.
Yun Jiang was still full of smiles, but his eyes were cold: "Your Majesty, why should you be angry with us slaves? The Emperor's order, the Empress Dowager, can't do anything about it." After finishing speaking, the maid who looked at Concubine De said: "Still stunned. What are you doing, why don’t you invite your mother to go in? Don’t you know the crime of violating the emperor’s order?”
Concubine De raised her hand and slapped Yun Jiang hard: "It's not your turn to give orders here."
Yun Jiang covered her face, still not angry, she just looked at her with a cold sneer: "I don't dare. Madam, please stay in Yonghe Palace." After finishing speaking, she left directly.
Concubine De wanted to go forward, but was directly stopped by the group of eunuchs.
Yun Jiang walked for a while before stopping to look at Concubine De who was still yelling at the eunuchs, the corners of her mouth curled up coldly, and she turned and left.
(End of this chapter)
After Lin Jinhua sent Zhao Huaiyan away, she sat alone in the gazebo outside the courtyard and was lost in thought.
Mo Feng and Yang's mother watched from a distance, a little worried: "Mom, go get the cloak for the young lady."
Mama Yang knew that she had something to say to the young lady, so she tactfully withdrew.
After Mo Feng watched the people leave, he stepped forward, looked at Lin Jinhua who was wearing thin clothes, and said softly, "Miss, the tea is cold, and this servant will replace it with a hot one for you."
Lin Jinhua looked at the gray sky in the distance, covered with overcast clouds, as if a storm was about to come. Hearing her words, she smiled slightly: "Okay."
Seeing that she was willing to speak, Mo Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Slave, please say more, after all, the concubine De concubine has been in the palace for so many years, she has cultivated a lot of power, and she has been able to be domineering and arrogant for so many years, not only because of the emperor. Darling, go back, you have to be more careful."
"I understand." How could Lin Jinhua not understand, she has lived two lifetimes.
After a pause, he looked at Mo Feng: "How did you go about hoarding medicinal materials before?"
Mo Feng saw that she took the initiative to ask questions, and smiled slightly: "It's been done, and I left a message to the shopkeepers, saying that once those medicinal materials are newly purchased, they will be sent to the place designated by the servants immediately. But the shopkeeper said that these medicinal materials It is not often used, and it is rare to enter once a year or so.”
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua nodded, looking down at the cold tea in front of her, she didn't mind picking it up and took a sip. The astringent taste of the tea spread from the tip of the tongue to the bone marrow. Although the taste was bitter, the aftertaste was sweet.
She stood up and said softly: "Let's not make any moves for the next few days, wait for half a month." Concubine De is going to make trouble today, and people will definitely stare at her, so I should just think about how to cultivate my own in this half month The manpower is good, and he relies on Zhao Huaiyan everywhere, but one day he can't take care of himself, what should he do?After all, he is also in crisis now.
As she thought this way, she had already slowly walked to the door of Lin Luzhi's room. She only felt relieved when she heard the maid said that he was still awake. Otherwise, if he knew what happened today, he would definitely be furious.
"No one is allowed to tell the master and young master what happened today, you understand?" She lightly instructed the servant.
This young man has also followed Lin Luzhi all year round, and he has also been on the battlefield. This year is approaching thirty, and he is a steady man: "This subordinate understands." After finishing speaking, looking at the young lady in front of him, how many Distributing worries: "Miss, the general has been very prestigious in the barracks all these years, and there are several generals who have good friends with him. If it is really not possible..."
"It's really not possible, can you still plot rebellion?" Lin Jinhua smiled.
He paused for a moment, then quickly lowered his head: "This subordinate dare not."
Lin Jinhua knew he didn't mean that, but at this time the emperor had just withdrawn his father's military power, if they were not sensible enough to go to the people in the military camp, wouldn't they be telling the emperor that even if he withdrew his military power, the people in the military camp would still obey his father?This will only lead to greater disasters.
"There's no need to mention it in the future. Take care of your father. If you can leave the house for a few days, don't leave the house." Lin Jinhua said lightly, then turned and left.
I don't know when the sky began to drizzle, falling with the cold wind.
The young servant looked at the back of Lin Jinhua leaving alone, and felt sorry for Lin Luzhi's daughter in his heart, but he could only sigh and turn his head back to the house.
As soon as Lin Jinhua arrived at the central hall, Wang Ruyan and Mrs. Wang hurried over. The two of them walked in a hurry, as if they had come from another place.
As soon as Mrs. Wang entered the room, she saw the red mark on Lin Jinhua's right face that hadn't faded, and she only sighed softly: "It's too much for Concubine De to embarrass your daughter's family like this." She was as unafraid as Wang Yushi Those powerful people are only for their children, so they should always be more careful and not speak too much.
Wang Ruyan's eyes were red, and she stepped forward and said: "When I came, I heard people talking about your two maids. Fortunately, Prince Ning came in time, otherwise I don't know what will happen. Defei is also a harem. How could someone like you bully a weak woman like this."
Lin Jinhua took her hand and smiled comfortingly: "You don't have to complain for me, the concubine De concubine punished me, and she also blamed me for being ignorant, so I should be punished." She looked outside, Wang Ruyan and Mrs. Wang would feel sorry Seeing that she didn't intend to use them to deal with Concubine De, she liked her more.
Wang Ruyan still cared about Lin Jincheng, but she was too embarrassed to ask, she blushed and held back for a long while without making a sound.
Mrs. Wang asked someone to fetch the plaster before she was pulled to sit down.Seeing her calm expression and peaceful mind, she felt that she was really smart, so she said softly: "There are too many gossips in Lin's residence these days, so you should stay here and not go out."
"I think so too." Lin Jinhua glanced at Mrs. Wang gratefully, knowing that she was sincerely treating her well, she paused, and then said: "It would be great if my grandparents' house is still there, no matter what, it's still good." A true dear."
"The Xu family..." Mrs. Wang thought for a while, but Min lips smiled: "If you don't tell me, I forgot, I heard that the master of the Xu family has written a petition and wants to return to Beijing to repair the ancestral grave. There are also many ministers who seconded the proposal and asked the emperor to transfer the Xu family back to Beijing."
"Really?" Wang Ruyan was very happy. The Xu family was also a respectable family back then. If the Xu family came back, would the old lady and the eldest son of the Lin family dare to bully the Jinhua brothers and sisters like this?
Mrs. Wang smiled and nodded her forehead: "Your mother can tell lies, but your father used to say that if Mr. Xu comes back, he must play chess and drink tea with him."
Lin Jinyu's heart brightened when she heard it, but she was worried that Concubine De hated herself now, would she anger the Xu family because of herself, and play tricks on the Xu family instead?
She thought about it, and then she wondered: "It's a trivial matter for the Xu family to return to office. The only thing I worry about is whether my uncle will be like daddy when he returns to Beijing."
When Mrs. Wang heard this, the smile on her face froze for a moment.There is no reason to add a crime. If Concubine De, Zhao Kan and the others do not want the Xu family to enter Beijing, or have more vicious methods, they are indeed afraid that something will happen.
Wang Ruyan also became nervous, biting her lip tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.Without the Xu family's help, Mr. Lin might really marry Miss Zheng's family.
"mother……"
"Mrs. Wang, Jin Hua is very grateful for your coming this time. It is better for the Wang family not to get involved in today's matter. Mr. Wang is in the position of censor, and there are already many crises, so there is really no need to interfere with this matter." Wading in the muddy water." Lin Jinhua saw the hesitation in Mrs. Wang's eyes, and she didn't force it, she just smiled.
Mrs. Wang did mean that. The Wang family's safe and sound existence did not depend entirely on the emperor's trust.The affairs of the court are inherently treacherous, let alone the dispute between King Ning and King Jing has gradually been involved.The dispute between the court and the party is a taboo for the official censor.
Seeing that Lin Jinzheng was sensible, she felt more and more emotional. She just held her hand affectionately and smiled helplessly: "I really can't help you with this matter. It would be great if I could see the Queen Mother. The old ancestor of the Xu family was handkerchiefed by the Queen Mother back then. It’s just that after so many years, the Queen Mother has been in seclusion and can’t sincerely worship the Buddha, and she doesn’t want to see anyone except for Buddhist affairs.”
Mrs. Wang got up after she finished speaking, and then turned around and asked someone to bring 200 taels of silver bills to her: "I can't do much, your family of three just moved out, and I'm afraid it won't be enough for you. Take the power for a small use."
Lin Jinhua understood Mrs. Wang's advice, and knew that she was in a dilemma, so she didn't force it, but she just smiled and said, "I still have some money, Madam, why don't you use it to buy some medicine."
"Medicine?" Mrs. Wang was puzzled, Lin Jinhua turned her head and asked someone to wait for her pen and ink, and quickly wrote a prescription for her.Just now as soon as he entered the door, he saw her dry mouth and internal heat, vomiting symptoms from time to time, so when she grabbed him, he took her pulse conveniently, it was an irregularity caused by the depression in her heart.
When Mrs. Wang saw the prescription, she still couldn't understand it, and then she thought of her physical discomfort these past few days, she was somewhat ashamed, even if they are all women, the illnesses brought by women are always difficult to talk about.
She looked at Lin Jinhua's frank look, but smiled helplessly: "You are really a good doctor..." After she finished speaking, she paused, and looked up at her: "Ru Yan's uncle is now serving as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. My mother is seriously ill, which is also a woman's disease, and she refuses to ask for a doctor, so I wonder if I can ask Miss Lin for help."
Minister of the Ministry of Officials?Isn't it just about the transfer of management officials?
She smiled slightly: "Naturally."
"Well, I'll send a car to pick you up when I'm free in a few days." This is not counting as the Wang family's intentional opposition to Concubine De, but also helping Lin Jinhua.After all, with the addition of Wang Yushi and a servant of the official department, the old lady of the Lin family should be more peaceful.
When Mrs. Wang was sent away, Wang Ruyan was still a little bit reluctant: "My mother said that I was afraid that if I stayed, it would cause you trouble instead. When I go back, I will bring you some medicinal materials." I'm ashamed to ask what Lin Jincheng said.
Lin Jinhua saw that her round face was flushed red, and she didn't know why, so she just whispered, "My brother and father are both fine now, as for the marriage, if my father didn't agree, it's impossible to do it."
Upon hearing this, Wang Ruyan lowered her eyes shyly and hurriedly said goodbye and left.
After they left, Mo Feng smiled softly and said, "Miss, feel relieved now, I heard that the old lady of Mrs. Wang's natal family has been in touch with the Queen Mother all these years."
Lin Jinhua blinked her eyes. Since that's the case, she will be very busy these few days.
Concubine De went back to the palace that day and wanted to see the emperor, but the emperor didn't see her at all, and it dragged on for several days until the eve of the Shangyuan Festival.
That night, Lin Jinhua took advantage of the darkness to sneak to the Ninth Prince's Mansion. Mo Xue was not in good health, so she came in a carriage with Mother Yang.
When Zhao Qing saw her at the back corner door, he was a little surprised: "I thought you were afraid to go out."
"Everyone thinks so." That's why she came out smoothly.
Together with Mother Yang, she followed Zhao Qing through several hanging flower doors, and finally arrived at the room where Concubine Jia lived temporarily. This time, she did not see the side concubine Wei Yunyi.
She felt strange, but she didn't ask any questions, she just stepped forward to greet the concubine Jia.
Concubine Jia looked much better, she was sitting on the couch and was embroidering, when she saw her coming, she just smiled and ordered someone to help her up, before she said: "I heard that Concubine De went to your place to make trouble, what's the matter with you?"
"Thank you for your concern, my daughter-in-law is fine." She smiled slightly.
Zhao Qing naturally sat on the side of the concubine Jia, her peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly: "Miss Lin is one of the smartest, although Concubine De is also smart, she has been used to being arrogant and willful by the emperor for so many years. It's too early, I'm afraid Miss Lin's little cleverness won't be useful."
Lin Jinhua smiled, lowered her eyes and replied, "I used to blame the courtiers for their recklessness."
"You still have self-knowledge." Zhao Qing said simply, seeing Concubine Jia glaring at her, she smiled and said nothing, and asked someone to bring an embroidered stool for her to sit down on.
Only then did Lin Jinhua begin to feel the pulse of Concubine Jia, and while taking the pulse, she listened to Concubine Jia: "Mrs. Wang is a kind person. Among all the civil and military wives in the court, she has the best temper, but I saw her many years ago." gone."
Lin Jinhua's eyes jumped slightly, she suddenly mentioned Mrs. Wang, was she trying to imply something?
She didn't ask, seeing that she understood, the concubine Jia continued to smile and said: "I remember the age of Wang's daughter is about the same age as you?"
"My name is Ru Yan, and she is as old as a court lady." Lin Jinhua replied.Withdrawing his hands, he said: "My lady's pulse condition has stabilized. Next, I will change to an ordinary prescription. I will cook three pieces a day, boil three cans into one bowl, and just take it." After finishing speaking, he turned to write the prescription.
Seeing her holding her breath like this, the concubine Jia smiled wider and said: "Your brother's marriage to the Zheng family is not a bad thing. The Emperor must have known Miss Wang's good match long ago. "Wang Yushi is the emperor's most important minister, and his children's in-laws will definitely be valued by the emperor. If the Wang family marries the Lin family, who is at the forefront of the storm at this time, the emperor must be suspicious of Wang Yushi, and then the only person in the court who can tell the truth will be in danger.But the Zheng family is different. General Zheng wants to step on the heart of the Lin family to climb up. Everyone knows, and the emperor also knows that if the Zheng family and the Lin family marry, the emperor will not continue to attack the Lin family, and the Lin family will be able to breathe.
Hearing these words, Lin Jinhua could turn the corner in her mind.If she heard it in the previous life, she would definitely agree, but this life is different, Zheng Ruyi is a scourge, she will kill everyone, so even if she dies, she will never let Zheng Ruyi marry in.
Lin Jinhua wrote the prescription and put it on the candle beside it to dry slowly before handing it to the maid on the side. She smiled at Concubine Jia and said, "Thank you for your advice, Madam."
Seeing her being so respectful, Concubine Jia knew that she was unwilling, so she didn't say any more: "You are a smart boy. Thank you for your hard work today."
"The courtier has other things to do, so I won't take care of you any more." After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, she was about to leave, but the concubine Jia asked again, "When can my concubine return to the palace?"
Zhao Qing frowned slightly: "Mother Concubine, why worry..."
"After all, I am a concubine, so naturally I have to serve in the palace." Concubine Jia took a deep look at him and smiled softly.
Lin Jinyu looked at her gentle appearance, her facial features were full of gentleness, and she also had a bit of gentle temperament, which made people relax. Presumably the emperor didn't like her, there must be other reasons.
"Your Majesty can go back to the palace at any time, as long as you pay attention to drinking the medicine every day." After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, without looking at Zhao Qing's indifferent eyes, she bowed and withdrew.
I found Mama Yang who was staring outside, and planned to go back the same way with her, but when I left the back corner door, I accidentally saw Wei Yunyi who had never shown up before.
Wei Yunyi's complexion became paler, and her already thin face was a little sunken, and her whole body was weak as if she was about to become feathered at any moment. She looked very gloomy in a dark green skirt.
Seeing her coming, Wei Yunyi stepped forward two steps forward with a smile and said, "I knew you were coming, so I waited specially."
Lin Jinhua knew that she had something to say, so she looked at Mama Yang and said, "Mom, go and wait for me outside."
Mother Yang hurriedly responded.
Wei Yunyi looked at her with a smile, seeing her young and healthy appearance, and her exquisite heart, how could she not be envious.
"I'm going away for a while, can I ask you to do me a favor?" She smiled softly.
Lin Jinhua looked at the deep sadness hidden in her eyes, and knew that she might not be able to untie the knot in her heart.And based on her previous life, she won't be able to live long.
She didn't say anything, just said: "The side concubine, please tell me."
"Where is the word command. I just hope that after I leave, you can take care of the Ninth Prince for me." She said this with a smile, but tears welled up in her eyes.
Lin Jinhua frowned subconsciously: "His Royal Highness Prince Ning will take good care of you."
Wei Yunyi shook his head: "No matter how much His Royal Highness Prince Ning takes care of him, he still can't solve his knot. The person who has the knot has never been me, but the Ninth Prince."
Lin Jinhua was surprised, but a servant girl's voice came over: "Side concubine, are you here?"
Wei Yunyi looked at the voice, said no more, just took Lin Jinhua's hand and put something in her palm: "It's for you, if you accept it, you will help me."
"The concubine..."
"This thing can help you a lot." She smiled, and Lin Jinhua looked down. It was a small butterfly-shaped jade, with the word 'Wei' engraved on the back of the jade.
The servant girl's call became louder and louder. Seeing her silence, Wei Yunyi only grasped her hand tightly: "Promise me."
"My daughter-in-law may not agree..."
"Side concubine, you are here, why did you come out by yourself, it's very windy outside." The servant girl had already seen Wei Yunyi, and hurried over.
When Lin Jinhua saw Wei Yunyi saw the maid, there was a bit of coldness in her eyes, and she naturally closed her hand and put the jade butterfly in her palm.
Wei Yunyi glanced at her and smiled, "Thank you."
Lin Jinhua gritted her teeth slightly, did not speak, just watched her being helped away by the maid.As soon as they left, she also turned around and went out the door and got into the carriage.
Seeing that her expression was gloomy, Mama Yang asked puzzledly, "Miss, what happened?"
Lin Jinhua leaned on the carriage, turned the jade butterfly out and looked at it for a while, then shook her head: "Does Mom know anything about the Wei family?"
"The Wei family?" Yang's mother thought for a while: "The Wei family has long been lonely, and there have been only a few rumors about the Wei family in the capital for so many years, and the side concubine Wei has always kept a low profile, so the slaves don't know much, only Wei Wei. The former wife of the family seems to be from southern Xinjiang."
"Southern Xinjiang?" Lin Jinhua didn't remember people from Southern Xinjiang getting involved in her previous life. She lowered her eyes to look at the jade butterfly in her palm, and put it away in her sleeve without thinking about it.
The carriage ran for a while before it finally stopped. The people waiting at the entrance of the alley saw her coming, so they rushed up to greet her: "Miss Lin."
"Master, I'm sorry to have waited for a long time." Lin Jinhua did not get out of the carriage, only across the carriageway.
Huijue lowered his head with a bamboo hat, and rolled his eyes a few times: "Miss Lin, the poor monk dare not come out of Dingnanhou's mansion now, I'm afraid I can't do what you want."
Lin Jinhua knew that he had asked him to publicize that Zhao Kan would cause an epidemic before alluding to it, so she smiled slightly: "Master, don't worry, you will be able to go out soon. After you go out, do something for me immediately."
"What's the matter?" Huijue was relieved to see that she didn't force herself to go out.
"I want you to enter the palace and meet the Empress Dowager." Since the Empress Dowager believes in Buddhism, Huijue, a living Bodhisattva, is the best way to speak.
"Mother... Empress Dowager?" Huijue only felt a little guilty. He knew how much he had. He still dared to fool ordinary ladies. If it was the Empress Dowager, how would he dare.
Lin Jinhua looked at his timid look through the curtain of the car, and raised her brows slightly: "Master, what are you afraid of? What you say will come true one after another. You are a living Bodhisattva, so why not be afraid of seeing the Queen Mother?"
"But..." He was still worried: "The queen mother is no different from ordinary wives. For her sake, she already has no desires or desires. What?"
Want nothing?
Lin Jinhua didn't believe it. After Zhao Kan ascended the throne in her previous life, the queen mother died strangely. At that time, she didn't understand it. She just thought it was really old and died of illness. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid it was the hands of Concubine De and the people behind her. .If so, the queen mother must be their threat. Besides, the queen mother stepped on bones in the harem to become a high-ranking queen mother. Fighting is born, so there is no reason to really give up.
"I don't want you to turn things around, you just need to coax the queen mother well, and you can pass a few words at the critical moment." Lin Jinhua said.
Huijue still felt that something was wrong. This carelessness was a crime of beheading.
He looked at the people in the carriage and said, "Miss Lin, is this too risky? Besides, what you say and what I say will come true. How is this possible?"
"Why is it impossible? The period of half a month is coming soon. After the outbreak of the epidemic, among the palace concubines, the empress and several favored concubines will be infected, and the four princes, seven princes, nine princes and ten princes outside the palace will also be infected. , the fourth concubine will give birth to a son in half a month, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this!" She said lightly.
What she said was ordinary, but Huijue's legs were weak: "The person behind you has the ability to fight like this?"
The corner of Lin Jinyu's mouth curled up: "Master doesn't believe it, just wait a little longer, news will come out one after another within these two days, and you will only get the reputation of being an afterthought if you talk about it again."
"This..." He began to struggle, he didn't want to lose face or wealth.
Seeing him like this, Lin Jinhua had already guessed how he would choose, so she didn't say any more and let the carriage go.
Huijue watched the carriage leave for a long time, then gritted his teeth: "If you gamble, you gamble!"
The night passed smoothly.
The second day is Shangyuan Festival.
On the Lantern Festival, the people in the capital will hang lanterns in every household, enjoy lanterns, and guess lantern riddles. The children of rich families will do things to pay homage to their relatives, or go to the grave to offer incense and hang a big lantern. blessing lanterns.
Lin Jinhua got up early in the morning, changed into a crescent white long gown, and was about to go out wearing a red cloak with a white fringe.
Mother Yang helped pack up the things for worship, Bai Lan ran in excitedly, and said happily, "Miss, the young master is awake."
Lin Jinhua smiled. It was just an infection. Drink the medicine and rest well, and you will wake up naturally.
She was about to go to have a look, but the old lady who was guarding the door hurried over and said in a panic: "Miss, the old lady brought Miss Zheng together, and said that she would accompany you to pay homage to Madam."
When Bai Lan heard Zheng Ruyi's name, her face darkened, she turned her head and ran to Lin Jincheng's room, but Lin Jinhua didn't stop when she wanted to.
"That's all, put away the things first, let's go and have a look." After finishing speaking, he stepped forward to the second door.
The yard was small, and it took a few steps to reach the end. At this moment, the old lady was waiting at the door with Zheng Ruyi.
Zheng Ruyi also changed into plain clothes today, but the old lady still wore a bright green embroidered dress, her hair was combed meticulously, and she looked very wealthy.
When she saw Lin Jinhua approaching, her face was gloomy, and she said coldly, "You still want to stop me? After all, I am your grandmother. Even if you move out, can you be so disrespectful and disfilial?"
Seeing that she still had a thick face, Lin Jinhua admired her, so she smiled slightly and said, "Grandmother is here, and Jinhua is at a loss to welcome her. Come here, please old lady sit down in the flower hall, and present the best from West Lake Longjing.”
"I'm going now, servant girl." A servant girl responded immediately.
Seeing that she was savvy, the old lady just snorted softly and walked in.
As soon as she passed Lin Jinhua, Lin Jinhua went out with Mama Yang, who was carrying a basket.
Zheng Ruyi saw it, and immediately grabbed the old lady, looked back at Lin Jinhua with a bit of grievance, and said, "Miss Seven, don't you even want to share the same room with me?"
Lin Jinhua frowned slightly, turned sideways and before she could speak, she heard a weak male voice say, "This is Lin's Mansion, not Zheng's Mansion. Jinhua can go wherever she wants, as long as she is willing."
Hearing this voice, Lin Jinhua frowned secretly, seeing Bai Lan who was helping him out, she didn't speak.
Zheng Ruyi looked at Lin Jincheng who had come out unexpectedly, bit her lips slightly, her eyes filled with mist, and said timidly, "Jincheng..."
When Lin Jincheng heard her calling his name weakly, if he had done it before, he would have softened his heart a long time ago, but now he felt inexplicably disgusted.
He only frowned slightly and remained polite: "Miss Zheng, please respect yourself."
self-respect?
Zheng Ruyi's face turned red, and Lin Jincheng had never brushed her face like this before when she was angry.
Her tears fell instantly, and she looked at him pitifully: "Mr. Lin, do you actually despise me so much?"
The maid next to her hurriedly said: "Mr. Lin, do you know that when your accident happened, my lady knelt down in front of the Bodhisattva for a whole day, just to beg the Bodhisattva to bless you. After you were injured and fell asleep, my lady didn't even think about eating. I don't want to, I can't sleep peacefully day and night, and I'm losing weight..."
Lin Jinhua clenched her fists slightly, how long will this pitiful beauty trick of Zheng Ruyi be used?In her previous life, she lured her brother step by step into the net like this, and then brutally killed him after using it...
Lin Jinhua didn't dare to think about it anymore, although Lin Jincheng's eyes moved, he still said indifferently: "Miss Zheng's kindness, Lin appreciates it."
Zheng Ru thought that he was still unmoved like this, and the hand holding the handkerchief had already begun to clenched tightly.
The old lady immediately frowned and said in a low voice: "Why did you talk to Miss Zheng, you have already made a marriage contract with her..."
"In the matter of children's marriage, if the grandfather is present, then the grandfather is in charge. If the grandfather is dead, then the father is in charge. Grandmother always wants Jinhua to learn the three obediences and four virtues. Why did she forget?" Lin Jincheng said indifferently.
The old lady's face froze: "Is this your attitude when talking to your grandmother?"
"Jincheng considers himself respectful, and has never done anything unfilial to his step-grandmother. On the contrary, it is the step-grandmother who insulted her before, and I still hear it in my ears. I dare not forget it." After Lin Jincheng finished speaking indifferently, he glanced at Bai Lan beside him: "Bai Lan, see off the guests."
"You—!" The old lady was so angry that she couldn't speak when she heard the word 'step-grandmother', and now she saw that he was as rude as Lin Jinhua, and even furious, but Lin Luzhi was not there , no one cares whether she dances or not.
Bai Lan stepped forward: "Madam Lin please, Miss Zheng please."
Zheng Ruyi's eyes were very red: "If Mr. Lin doesn't want me, I'll just throw myself into the river." After saying that, she ran out crying.
Lin Jincheng frowned. Seeing this, the old lady just snorted coldly: "The marriage between you and Miss Zheng was also decided by the Empress Defei. If you forced Miss Zheng to death, I think you have a few lives to pay for."
"Grandmother's only grandson killed the eldest grandson of the Zheng family, and she was sentenced to death. She's just the eldest daughter, so what are you afraid of?" Lin Jinzheng looked at her with a sneering chill.Seeing that they have nothing to gain from themselves, they start to use elder brother, they don't even think about it!
The old lady has always said that she can't stand Lin Jinhua. Looking at her cold eyes, she always feels a chill creeping up the mountain from the bottom of her feet, and she just glanced at her secretly: "Since your father hasn't woken up, I won't stay any longer. When he wakes up, you should do the same." Go back to Lin Mansion to live!" After saying that, he turned his head and led the people away.
After watching her leave, Lin Jincheng held onto the door and coughed violently.
Bai Lan hurried over to support him and said with concern: "My lord, are you alright, this servant will help you back to your room first."
Lin Jincheng shook his head slightly, looked up at Lin Jinhua, and smiled slightly: "Going to worship mother?"
Lin Jinhua glanced at the worried Bai Lan, nodded, and said, "Bai Lan, I seem to have left some candles in the room, can you bring them for me?"
Hearing this, Bai Lan was a bit reluctant, but she nodded and looked at Lin Jincheng: "Young Master, this servant will come whenever you go."
Lin Jincheng also noticed Bai Lan's special affection for him, nodded, and recruited his own servant to wait on him before approaching Lin Jinhua: "Bai Lan will tell you more about what happened in the mansion before, Jinhua, you have been wronged."
Seeing the apology and distress in his eyes, Lin Jinhua smiled sweetly: "I'm fine, my brother is not in good health, let's rest at the mansion so that I can take care of my father, mother can understand."
"But you go alone, I'm worried..."
"Brother, don't worry, they don't have time to trouble me today." Now Lin Jinhua was probably at her wits end, bending her eyes and smiling slightly.
Seeing her cunning look, Lin Jincheng was both sad and distressed. A younger sister at his age should be at home without any worries, yet he has to bear so much alone.
"Don't worry, brother won't be confused, and will definitely protect you." Lin Jincheng slightly raised the corners of his lips, and gently raised his hand to rub her head.
Lin Jinhua's heart was warm, no amount of suffering seemed to be considered suffering.
Lin Jinhua asked someone to send Lin Jincheng back, and when Bai Lan came, he took a deep look at her and said, "Cai'er is getting better, and I plan to send her to Zhuangzi to recuperate, so you can go and discuss with Zhu Wucai today, see Which Zhuangzi is suitable."
"But son, he..."
"Miss Bailan, the young master has someone to take care of him. As a girl, you stay by his side all day long. Wouldn't it be difficult to match him in the future?" Mother Yang also reminded her.
Bai Lan's eyes turned red suddenly, thinking that Lin Jinhua was unwilling, she just lowered her eyes and nodded, but couldn't help the hoarseness of her throat: "I'm going now, servant girl." After saying that, she turned her head and ran away.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua only sighed slightly.It's not that she doesn't want to, it's just that she doesn't want to see Bai Lan follow her brother to do housework. Besides, seeing what her brother means, he has no interest in Bai Lan. After marrying a wife, where will Bai Lan be?
"Miss, do you want your servant to persuade Miss Bailan again?" Mother Yang asked worriedly.
Lin Jinhua shook her head slightly: "No need, after a while, I will have a good talk with her. If she still insists on doing so then, I won't force her anymore." Lin Jinhua sighed lightly, then turned her head and went out .
When leaving, he specifically asked the carriage to pass through the Seventh Prince's Mansion first, and then King Jing's Mansion.
Although the coachman didn't understand, he did it anyway.
When passing by the Seventh Prince's Mansion, after waiting for a short while, I saw the doctor inside stumbled and ran out with a panicked look on his face. Not long after, another doctor was thrown out, and the servant inside was still yelling: "Quack doctor!"
The doctor did not dare to speak with a bitter face, and when the boy returned, he patted his body in a hurry, as if he was afraid of getting something dirty, he hurried away.
Mother Yang still didn't understand: "What's going on inside?"
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly: "Go to the gate of Prince Jing's Mansion."
At this moment, Zhao Kan was already bored enough that the emperor ordered him to rest in the mansion and not go to the court for the past few days, but he didn't know that the news of Xiong Shuli's death came early in the morning.
"My lord, Mr. Xiang... Mr. Xiong was killed by gangsters at night, and the officials couldn't find anything. Mrs. Xiong and the young master's slaves have already arranged for people to be sent to Xiong's house." The people below said in panic.
"Zhao Huaiyan!" Zhao Kan almost gritted his teeth and said these words.
"What does the lord mean, Mr. Xiong was the one who did it by King Ning?"
"Who else but him." After Zhao Kan finished speaking, he sneered coldly as if remembering something: "He is very defensive. A mere woman has made him do so many things. It seems that as long as Lin Jinhua is in my hands On the other hand, he would be willing to let him get out of the capital."
The people below listened, rolled their eyeballs, hurriedly came up and said in a low voice: "Then, should we go and catch Lin Jinhua..."
"Idiot." Zhao Kan glared at him fiercely: "You think the father is blind? Although Lin Luzhi was cut off from the military power, who doesn't know that the people in the military camp still listen to him, and Lin Jincheng has also been promoted to the third rank , Although he was looking at the city gate, it shows that the father has not given up on the Lin family, and he may be useful in the future." That's why he insisted on sending Zheng Ruyi to Lin Jincheng's side to watch.
Hearing that, the man was too busy to speak.
The atmosphere here was calm, when someone came outside suddenly: "My lord, the Seventh Prince's residence said that it has been infected with the disease."
"Epidemic?" Zhao Kan was surprised.
Only then did the person next to him remind him: "My lord, Master Huijue of Dingnanhou's mansion said a few days ago that an epidemic will break out in the capital within half a month, all because of your injustice and virtuousness..."
"Snapped--!"
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Kan directly smashed the walnut he was playing with, and stared at him viciously: "Say it again!"
The man hurriedly knelt down and dared not speak any more.
Zhao Kan glanced at him sullenly, and then someone opened the door and called in the people outside: "What's the current situation in the Seventh Prince's Mansion?"
"I heard that the Seventh Prince was suddenly infected with the disease, the doctor frightened him away, and the people in the Seventh Prince's residence were panic-stricken, so he hurriedly ordered people to go to the palace to find an imperial doctor." The man said humanely.
Zhao Kan's face was sullen, and before he could speak, someone rushed over again: "My lord, Master Huijue is at the gate of King Jing's mansion right now."
Zhao Kan was about to look for him, when he heard the words, he just snorted coldly: "I see what evil words he has!" After saying that, he flung his sleeves and left.
At this time, at the gate of King Jing’s mansion, Huijue held back his trembling legs and sighed helplessly to the onlookers: “It’s a disaster, it’s a disaster from heaven, if King Jing doesn’t sincerely worship the Buddha, and the concubine De concubine doesn’t practice purely, this disease will not only make the palace All the favored ladies will be infected, and the Ninth and Tenth Princes will be infected one by one."
As soon as he said this, the people outside all looked terrified.
When Zhao Kan came, he gritted his teeth when he heard these words: "You are bewitching people with your demonic words. Today, this king will do justice for the heavens and kill you, a demon monk!"
When Huijue heard this, he was in danger. He put his hands together and looked straight at him: "The poor monk is not afraid of death, but the suffering of the common people. If the prince is willing to worship the Buddha sincerely, the poor monk will not regret his death."
Zhao Kan snorted coldly, pulled out the servant's knife and slashed at him, but one of the people knelt down immediately: "My lord, you can't kill him!"
"That's right, my lord, I can't kill you."
The people knelt down one after another.
Zhao Kan's face was slightly green, but he would never do anything to the people in front of them.
He held back his breath and only looked at Huijue coldly: "What if the empress and the princes in the palace won't be infected with the disease?"
"The prince can kill the poor monk, and the poor monk will never complain."
"Really? But this king is even more suspicious. You are the one who caused this disease, and you are the one who cast the curse of the epidemic to kill this king and the concubine!" he said coldly.
Huijue glanced at him sympathetically, sighed and shook his head slightly: "My lord, the culprit has already found you, why don't you believe it? Recently your closest relative died unexpectedly?"
Zhao Kan frowned slightly when he thought of Xiong Shuli who had just died.
Seeing that Lin Jinhua's words were really right, Huijue finally let go of his hanging heart, and became more confident. He just put on the airs of a master and said, "If the prince doesn't believe it, it will come true within a few days. The prince If you suspect that the disease was caused by the poor monk, you can go and investigate, but the prince should not go to the fourth prince's mansion these few days..."
"Why?"
"Because the fourth concubine will give birth to a little emperor's grandson in the next few days, if the prince passes by, I am afraid that the epidemic will be recruited." After Huijue finished speaking, the people unconsciously took half a step back.
Zhao Kan clenched his fists tightly, wishing to slash Huijue right now, but he finally held back and said coldly: "Then I want to see if what you said is true. Come on, tell me the truth." This demon monk was taken into custody..."
"Brother Sanhuang is unavoidably unsafe to keep in his own mansion, how about putting him in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion?"
Zhao Qing came out from behind, glanced at Huijue lightly and said.
Lin Jinhua in the carriage raised her eyebrows slightly, wondering why he was here, could it be arranged by Zhao Huaiyan?
"Miss, this Master Huijue looks quite a bit." Mother Yang only smiled.
Lin Jinhua lightly raised the corners of her lips, glanced at Zhao Kan who was holding back his anger and had nowhere to vent his anger, and the smile in his eyes deepened: "Isn't it, a real master."
Concubine De probably knows the news by now, as long as people in the capital start to die, then their good days will come to an end.
"Let's go." Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Lin Jinyu didn't stay any longer, and let the coachman drive out of the city.
As soon as she left, Zhao Qing looked sideways in her direction.
Zhao Kan said in a deep voice, "What are you looking at?"
"It's nothing." Zhao Qing looked back at him lightly: "Come here, brother, there is one more thing to tell Brother Sanhuang."
"what's up?"
"Father and younger brother have allowed me to investigate Lord Xiong's murder. Brother Sanhuang doesn't need to intervene anymore." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Huijue: "Master Wronged has gone to Jingzhao Mansion Prison to stay for a while."
Huijue naturally prefers to go to Jingzhao Mansion, at least he won't be killed by King Jing jumping over the wall in a hurry. Holding back his panic, he clasped his hands together and nodded slowly.
Zhao Kan watched the people being taken away, and Zhao Qing also left on horseback, and then he had a gloomy face: "Go and invite me the Marquis of Dingnan!" The epidemic is spreading as he said, so this time it really fell.
At this moment in the imperial palace, when Concubine De heard the news, her first reaction was to go to the emperor to make decisions, but before she left the Yonghe Palace, she saw that Yun Jiang beside the queen had already brought a group of eunuchs.
She glanced at it with disdain, and said sarcastically, "What advice does the Empress have?"
Yun Jiang saluted with a smile, and then said softly: "Yesterday, after Imperial Physician Liu checked the empress's pulse, she found that the empress was already infected with the epidemic disease. The empress was ordered by the emperor. Starting today, the empress will be confined to the Yonghe Palace and not allowed to take half a step."
"Foot grounding? Heh..." Concubine De seems to have heard a big joke: "I have been in the palace for so many years, and I have never been grounded. Let me see who dares to stop me today!" After she finished speaking, she was about to go forward However, the group of eunuchs quickly stepped forward and stopped him.
Yun Jiang was still full of smiles, but his eyes were cold: "Your Majesty, why should you be angry with us slaves? The Emperor's order, the Empress Dowager, can't do anything about it." After finishing speaking, the maid who looked at Concubine De said: "Still stunned. What are you doing, why don’t you invite your mother to go in? Don’t you know the crime of violating the emperor’s order?”
Concubine De raised her hand and slapped Yun Jiang hard: "It's not your turn to give orders here."
Yun Jiang covered her face, still not angry, she just looked at her with a cold sneer: "I don't dare. Madam, please stay in Yonghe Palace." After finishing speaking, she left directly.
Concubine De wanted to go forward, but was directly stopped by the group of eunuchs.
Yun Jiang walked for a while before stopping to look at Concubine De who was still yelling at the eunuchs, the corners of her mouth curled up coldly, and she turned and left.
