Chapter 64
Qingyu, the rough envoy of the outer court, hurriedly said: "My lord! The servants are wronged! Mrs. Gu sent someone over, saying that there is something slandering Mrs. Gu hidden in our yard, and they are going to search for it..."

Madam Gu?Taohua blinked and looked at Shen Zaye.The latter's face became gloomy, and he pushed her away and stepped into the room.

After a while, several house slaves were thrown out, and fell to the middle of the yard with a few "bangs".

"It's against you, who gave me the guts to search for things in my prime minister's mansion?!" With an angry shout, Shen Zaiye raised his eyes and said to Zhanlu: "Bring me all the people in Wenqing Pavilion!"

"Yes!" Zhan Lu agreed, turned around and ran quickly.

Shrinking her neck, Tao Hua braved the old man's anger and came in to take a look.The house slaves lying on the ground were not wearing the clothes of the Prime Minister's mansion, but they were brought over by other people's family.

Then you can't blame Shen Zaiye for being so angry, who is so blind?Bringing people to the prime minister's mansion to search, and being bumped into by the prime minister, isn't that the same as going to the snake's den to dig eggs?It's no wonder they can't kill these stupid brats!
The mansion quickly became noisy, and Zhan Lu was really brave, and even brought a guard to escort a gorgeously dressed man over.

"Let go! Let me go! It's against you!"

The sharp voice came from afar, Taohua was taken aback, and quickly jumped to stand behind Shen Zaye.

Mei Zhaoxue was the first to step into the courtyard, her face was a little panicked, as if she really didn't know that Shen Zaiye was back, she stepped forward and saluted, "My concubine pays my respects to my master, I don't know if my master returned to the mansion ahead of time, and I didn't greet you. Please forgive me!"

Shen Zaiye didn't look at her, but raised his eyes to look at the person being detained behind him.

Seeing that Master Xiang had returned, Mrs. Gu stopped making noise, but the expression on her face was still quite upset, muttering something in a low voice.

"Master!" Gu Huairou rushed forward and said, "My mother doesn't understand the rules, if there is anything that offends Master, please forgive me."

"Don't know the rules?" Shen Zaiye sneered: "The wife of the dignified Lang Zhongling doesn't even know the rules, so she needs others to tolerate? I'm not Mr. Gu, I don't have such a broad mind. If you don't have an imperial decree, how dare you treat me like that? Mrs. Gu is the first one to search for people in the prime minister's house, so what if I don't go to Mr. Gu to settle this account?"

Gu Huairou froze for a moment, then quickly turned her head to look at her mother, winking again and again.

Mrs. Gu is used to being arrogant and indulgent in the mansion. Because Master Gu is silent, she has always been domineering and talkative.Originally, when Gu Huairou was favored in the prime minister's mansion, she even took her own daughter as the prime minister's favorite treasure, arguing a lot.

So now, even though Shen Zaiye's face is ugly, she just lowered her voice: "I didn't do anything wrong, what can the prime minister do to settle accounts?"

"Mother!" Gu Huairou was so anxious that her face turned pale, she glanced at Shen Zaye in a panic, then quickly retreated to her side and tugged at her, "Don't speak so aggressively!"

"Why did I rush?" Mrs. Gu frowned and said, "Isn't it? It's clear that someone wanted to kill you first, so why are you so weak?"

Smiling back in anger, Shen Zaiye looked down at her with his hands behind his back, and asked, "Who is going to harm whom?"

"Master Xiang doesn't know yet, does he?" Looking up at Jiang Taohua, Mrs. Gu knelt on the ground and said coldly: "As soon as you left the capital, rumors began to spread inside and outside the house that Huairou used her pregnancy to frame the Meng family. , about framing Mrs. Jiang. Coincidentally, the news spread from Zhengchun Pavilion."

What?Tao Hua looked at her in astonishment: "As soon as I leave, there will be no one in Zhengchun Pavilion, so where will the news go?"

"I'm going to praise Mrs. Jiang that you're smart." Mrs. Gu snorted softly, squinting her eyes and said, "You seem to have separated the relationship once you followed Mr. Xiang, but secretly arranged for the servant girl to slander Rou'er! Poor Rou'er Not to mention the loss of a child, but also to be slandered!"

That's kind of interesting Hey!Taohua squinted her eyes, stepped forward to look at her and said, "Please tell me again, why am I slandering Mrs. Gu?"

"What are you pretending to be here?" Mrs. Gu frowned, looked up at her and said, "Who doesn't know? You sent people to talk about it in the house and in the shop, saying that my Rou'er is not pregnant, but Taking advantage of her pregnancy to make things difficult for you and the Meng family, she has a small belly and a deep mind. She also said that she bought off the doctor in Xuanhutang, and she had a nose and eyes, so I almost believed it! Now the outside scolds me, Rou'er, so badly, you are happy gone?"

Taohua was very surprised, where did the news come from?She and Gu Huairou should be the only ones who know, and she is busy dealing with Shen Zaiye, so where does she have the time to frame Gu Huairou?

Turning her head to look at Gu Shi, her eyes were full of inquiry.Gu Huairou was obviously very guilty, when he met her eyes, he quickly avoided and lowered his head.

What's the situation?

After Shen Zaiye listened from above, he said lightly, "Zhaoxue."

"The concubine is here."

"You are the mistress of the mansion. When I'm not around, you are in charge of this mansion. But now you let others bring their slaves to the house to run wild, do you know your mistake?"

Mei Zhaoxue was taken aback for a moment, and quickly lowered her head: "I am willing to admit my fault for dereliction of duty."

"Go back and punish me for copying the Heart Sutra ten times."

"……Yes."

Mrs. Gu was taken aback, and stared at Shen Zaye.It was Mei Zhaoxue who was punished, but she was clearly slapping her in the face, why?

"Could it be that Master Xiang is so biased that it's not easy to investigate this matter?" She said angrily: "At least it has something to do with the reputation of Xiangfu! You can't spare the villain behind it!"

"Of course I will investigate, don't bother Madam." With a cold glance at her, Shen Zaiye turned to look at Gu Huairou: "Since there are such rumors spreading, please ask the doctor from Xuanhutang to come over for a reexamination first." .”

Gu Huairou was slightly startled, and hurriedly lowered her head and said, "If you want to invite me, please invite Doctor Zhang, he is very experienced in women's diseases."

"How is it enough to just invite one?" Looking at her with a smirk, Shen Zaiye said: "There are too many people in Xuanhutang who are proficient in medical skills, even if we invite them together, I can afford it."

As her face turned pale, Gu Huairou's heart was in a mess, and she immediately tore her mother's clothes vigorously.

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Gu looked at her inexplicably, raised her chin and said, "Diagnose when it should be diagnosed, I can't let you suffer wronged in vain! You are too kind, so you are always bullied in this mansion !"

Taohua smiled, looked at Gu Huaiju and said, "It's really kind."

She hasn't bothered with her about trying to kill herself last time, but now she is afraid that she will reveal the secret of her pregnancy and bite her first?
What good would it do her?If it is found out that she is really not pregnant, it will be even worse.As soon as the Meng family entered the prison, Shen Zaiye no longer had any scruples, and it would be no problem to deal with the Gu family directly on the charge of fake pregnancy.

Man, why are you so keen on courting your own death?
Gu Huairou was so anxious that she couldn't speak, she glanced at Tao Hua twice, her eyes were full of pleading.

She didn't do this, she's not so stupid!It's too late to hide, and you still want to die with others?
Tao Hua was taken aback for a moment, and raised her eyebrows slightly.

If it's not her, then who is it?

Without time to make eye contact with them, Shen Zaiye went into the inner room with the peach blossom in his hand, asked her to lie on the bed to rest well, and then asked Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu, along with the rest of the spectators, to wait in the outer room.

Mrs. Gu sat on the side, looked into the inner room several times, and whispered: "There are so many people sitting, but she is lying down?"

"Mother." Gu Huairou finally couldn't help but whispered: "I'm not as favored as I used to be, can't you put aside your airs?"

"You..." Mrs. Gu frowned: "If you put yourself down so low, who would think highly of you?"

"Do you think there is Gu's house everywhere?" Gu Huairou stomped his feet angrily, "There are rules here, I'm not the only one!"

Startled by her yelling, Mrs. Gu restrained herself a bit, and said, "Understood, why are you in such a hurry? Master Xiang is still watching."

"..." Gu Huairou closed her eyes in anger.In the past, she always reported the good news but not the bad news, which caused her mother to think that she was really amazing, and used her name to offend people everywhere, and in the end it was her who suffered.

Why are you so restless?

Shen Zaiye drank his tea quietly without raising his eyelids.In the booklet he had in hand, one more name had already been crossed out.

The doctors from Xuanhutang came soon, ten of them in total.Gu Huairou really didn't want to reach out, and wanted to escape by taking advantage of her dizziness and discomfort.Mrs. Gu also saw something was wrong, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

With so many people in the room, how could Gu Huairou dare to say anything?He could only grit his teeth and said to Shen Zaiye: "I don't want to get a pulse, can I let me go back to rest? Let's pretend that what happened today never happened."

"If you have been wronged, I will think you are very sensible when you say this." Looking up at her, Shen Zaiye said indifferently: "But today it was your mother who made Taohua wronged, and you still say that, It would be a little arrogant."

Gu Huairou was taken aback for a moment, then knelt down while holding up her skirt: "I am willing to make amends to Mrs. Jiang."

"It's a good thing to be able to correct your mistakes." Shen Zaiye said: "But the doctors are here, you should take a look. If you don't, then even I will think you have a guilty conscience."

Body froze, Gu Huairou lowered her head and did not move.Moss next to her continued to wink at Zaiye, and immediately stepped forward and pressed Gu Huairou on the chair next to her, and stretched out her hand to ask the doctor to feel her pulse one by one.

Gu Huairou's face turned blue, she looked at Qingmo and said, "I have no enmity with you, what are you doing?"

"According to the words of taking care of the wife, this is to prove my innocence to my wife, and it is also to wash away my master's slander." Qingmo said with a deadpan expression: "You are not afraid of the shadow, so don't be nervous."

No wonder you're not nervous!Gu Huairou struggled desperately, frowned and shouted: "Let me go!"

"If you continue to struggle, it means that the rumors outside are true." Shen Zaiye said with a straight face: "Huairou, blaming others for a fake pregnancy is no less serious than Meng's murder of an heir."
