Mu Huagui

Chapter 146

When autumn came, Princess Xianjun proudly announced that her daughter-in-law Qin Yiyi was pregnant.The princess of Dongjun was so angry that she turned around and issued a death order to Chen Jiao'er, and if the two of them were not allowed to stay in bed, she would directly accept the side concubine.

Seeing that Chen Jiaoer's mood was getting worse and worse, Zhou Mingyuan frowned secretly, and directly called Wanqian to the study for questioning.After knowing it, I went to the palace to face the saint the next day.

Soon Zhou Mingyuan was ordered by the emperor to go to Annan, and the princess said angrily, "Did you do it on purpose, did you want to help your daughter-in-law and piss me off? I have already thought about her enough, sending someone to give birth to her is not enough." No. Don't you want to be childless for the rest of your life?"

Zhou Mingyuan really wanted to say that if it wasn't born by a woman, he wouldn't care for more.But it was easy for him to leave, and the lady still had to live in the mansion, so she had to comfort her mother and said, "What does this have to do with her? I don't like the girls my mother sent me. They are as thick and strong as two old sows. Your son is so handsome and mighty." , how can you have a baby with a sow. Besides, you don’t understand the matter of going to Annan, but my father knows something about it. It’s about the emperor, I have to go, and she can’t control it.”

After saying this, the concubine burst into a "puchi" laugh, "Look at you kid, if you don't like it, just say it, mother will pick a few girls from the south of the Yangtze River for you, and you will be satisfied."

"By the way, your sister's wedding is scheduled for next month, so you have to hurry back." Young Master Wang is over [-] years old. He used to be from a poor family and had to take the scientific examination, so he was delayed.After making a marriage agreement, the Wang family naturally hoped to get married as soon as possible.

To young master Wang, the prince has always treated him as his nephew, so he didn't feel embarrassed. He directly set the wedding date in November.

"The emperor's order is hard to violate. There are parents and Jiao'er at home, so I'm not bad." Zhou Mingyuan thought for a while and said helplessly.

Zhou Mingyuan made a trip soon, Chang Zaixian wrote some things for his parents to prepare on the list and he helped send them back.I stayed in the capital, preparing for the spring of the next year. Annan's wedding team came to pick up the bride and return to Annan together.

After all, the princess was worried, and said that Lianqiao and Dingxiang should go to Annan to serve the eldest son.Zhou Mingyuan raised the corners of his lips and smiled, but he didn't refuse.

The night before leaving, Zhou Mingyuan was full of enthusiasm. Chen Jiaoer thought that he would go away for three months and would not come back until the New Year, so she also worked hard to cooperate with him.

Chen Jiao'er kept sending him to the second gate, looking at the sound of bamboo following behind her husband-in-law, as well as Forsythia and Lilac who couldn't suppress their joy.Looking at the dead leaves blown into the air by the cold wind, I feel that my heart is as helpless and desolate as this leaf.

By being busy with Zhou Yahan's marriage, Chen Jiao'er makes her life extremely fulfilling every day.Several times, the princess wanted to test whether her son's going out was caused by his daughter-in-law, but she didn't find a chance.

Encouraged by Chen Jiao'er, Zhou Yahan also started to go to the princess's courtyard to pay her respects every day.At first, the princess refused to see her, nor let her in.But she comes every day, not only people come, but also bring snacks made by herself.After going back and forth, the concubine finally let her in. Although she didn't give her any good looks until she got married, at least she no longer rejected her to perform filial piety in front of her.

The wedding was extremely lively, and the Wang family also showed enough sincerity. The Queen Mother sold the fields and houses of her hometown, and managed it very decently.The prince was very happy, and when Zhou Yahan returned home in three days, he took another 1 taels of silver and posted it privately to his daughter.

Zhou Yahan and Wangfei didn't say a few words, and sent her to find Shizifei.Seeing her ruddy face, Chen Jiao'er joked, "How are your husband and mother-in-law treating you?"

"Mother-in-law treats Yahan very well, my husband is also very good." The voice became softer as she got to the back.When the flushed face is full of happiness.

Seeing that they are doing well, Chen Jiao'er is also relieved, but recently she is not in a good mood, and she wants to fall asleep from time to time, and her body is getting lazier and lazier.It may be that Zhou Mingyuan is not here, and the weather is getting colder and colder.Although Zhou Yahan was still talking, her thoughts flew farther and farther away, and she wanted to follow him to see if she was all right.

"Sister-in-law misses her brother." Zhou Yahan also noticed it, and Chen Jiao'er said with a smile, "I lost my mind just now, let's go see my aunt. I want to sleep, and when I leave, just say goodbye to my mother."

"Okay, then sister-in-law has a good rest." Zhou Yahan helped her to bed, with a wry smile in her heart, she still didn't know if she would like to see her.

Fortunately, Aunt Tang was not stupid to the end, her daughter was married, if she disappeared, wouldn't the daughter she had worked so hard to get back be someone else's again.Fortunately, Zhou Yahan already has her own ability to judge. She only listens to her aunt's nonsensical words, but she doesn't really act according to her aunt's words.

Hearing that her daughter-in-law fell asleep again, the concubine was a little annoyed, she was sleepy at every turn these days, if Yuan'er was in the mansion, she might be even happier, maybe she had a reaction.But Yuan'er has been away for more than a month, and I can only guess that it was because of Yahan's marriage.

Hearing that Chen Jiao'er was ill, Lu Huo'er also came to visit once.Before leaving, Chen Jiaoer was so angry that he hesitated to speak, and wanted to hit him, "Tell me what you have, you look like you, you think I'm terminally ill."

"How is it possible? I am going to be engaged to Xia Zisu." Lu Huo'er was provoked by her and blurted out.

"Really, this is really, really great." Chen Jiao'er almost cried with joy, her two most important friends had a good home, how could she be unhappy.

Seeing her happy, Lu Huo'er felt a warm feeling in his heart.Confess a few more words with her, and leave the palace.Chen Jiao'er asked Licorice to find Qi Luoshu and came in to meet her. Although Qi Luoshu was a foreigner, he was the shopkeeper of her dowry shop and was in his early forties, so naturally no one would say anything.

Qi Luoshu brought Xiaobao into the palace together. Xiaobao was already seven years old and had entered a school to study.Unlike before, when she saw Chen Jiao'er, she threw herself into her arms and acted like a baby, saluted respectfully, and stood beside her father in an orderly manner.

Just looking curiously at the layout of the room, Chen Jiao'er waved to him, pulled it to his hand, and asked Licorice to bring him preserved fruits. "Silly boy, but I haven't seen my sister for more than half a year, so I forgot."

After eating a few pieces of preserved fruit, the child is still a child after all, and quickly raised his head, "I will never forget, my sister was so beautiful when she got married."

"What about now." Licorice teased him.

Small eyes widened, he looked carefully at Chen Jiao'er's face, "Of course it is more beautiful." In his heart, his sister has always been the most beautiful.

The children's words drew laughter from the whole room, and Chen Jiao'er told Wanxi to take Xiaobao to play outside.Wanxi knew that they had something to say, so she took Xiaobao to the yard.

Seeing that the young lady didn't let her go out, Licorice felt a little excited. It seemed that the young lady regarded her as her confidant.I was finally able to sit on an equal footing with Aunt Su and Cherry, and I felt very happy.

"Did the nails in the Prince's Mansion of Xian County go in?" Chen Jiao'er cut to the chase.

"Since the young lady explained last time, I have tried to arrange it. The door of the king's mansion in Kexian County is extremely strict, and the person who is let in is just a rough girl, so I'm afraid it won't be very useful in a short time." Qi Luoshu told the young lady about the matter He was extremely caring and tried his best to arrange it.On the one hand, they buy and sell ready-made people, and on the other hand, they train their own people and send them in.It's just that these two aspects have not played a role in a short period of time.

Thinking of one thing, Qi Luoshu hesitated and said, "This girl found out that Aunt Chen seems to be still alive, but she was locked up and suffered a lot."

What, Chen Jiao'er stood up, she thought Chen Qihong had..., what should I do.Caught in Qi Luoshu's eyes, Qi Luoshu said helplessly, "The only way to save someone is to try, I'm not sure."

"If you're not sure, give it a try. After all, this incident happened because of me." Chen Jiao'er is not a saint, if it's nothing to do with it.If she is capable, she may help. If she is not capable, she will not care.

It was a deal, she saved Chen Zining, and she provided information about the palace.But it's fine if you don't know, since you know, if Chen Jiao'er doesn't do anything, she will really have a bad conscience.

"Leave this matter to me, and I will discuss it with Mr. Lu." Qi Luoshu knew that her life in the palace was a bit sad, and with the absence of the eldest son, her spirits were always sluggish.

Is there still no news about Mrs. Lu and Liu Shuhe? "These two people just disappeared out of thin air, and they can't be found no matter what.

Qi Luoshu nodded, "It's indeed strange."

The two chatted for a while, and Qi Luoshu remembered a strange event, and said, "A few days ago, fishermen fished out a female corpse."

"Oh." Chen Jiao'er listened quietly to the following, and there was nothing surprising about just a corpse.Although the law and order in the capital is good, crimes like crimes are inevitable.

"A corpse has no face." Qi Luoshu regretted it again, he just wanted to tell some interesting stories outside to make the young lady happy.Why are you saying such things suddenly? Isn't the little girl afraid when she hears this.

"No face, what's going on here, shopkeeper Qi, please explain in detail." Chen Jiao'er felt as if she was about to grab something, but when she let go of her hand, it was still empty.

Qi Luoshu explained in detail what he had heard, "The body that was fished up was wearing coarse clothes, and the skin and flesh had already begun to rot. I heard that the person who picked up the body vomited for three consecutive days and couldn't eat a single grain of rice."

Sent to the yamen for an autopsy, it was said that a piece of flesh at least the thickness of a palm was missing from the face, and it was peeled off from the whole face.However, apart from a set of clothes, there was nothing on the body that could prove her identity.Many people went to identify the corpses, but none of them matched. "

"Think of a way to tighten the eyeliner of Prince Jinxian County. Other courtyards can be postponed. We must find a way to get around the princess of Prince Xianjun first." Chen Jiao'er's expression was very serious, and Qi Luoshu hurriedly nodded in agreement.This difficulty is a little lower. The bride who married into the palace is more likely to need manpower than other people.

They chatted about some things in the shop, and a little girl came outside to pass on the news, "Wanxi took the young master of the Qi family to play in the garden, and collided with the third young master, and quarreled."
