Chapter 70

Gu Huairou didn't believe it. She felt that Jiang Taohua might not want to tell her. After all, she was so powerful. After this incident, she felt that Mrs. Mei might not be as smart as Mrs. Jiang.Besides, Grandpa has always liked her, so how could he not find a chance to stand up?

Since she refuses to tell, then she doesn't need to keep asking, it will be fine.

The two exchanged pleasantries, Gu Huairou kept looking at Tao Hua with respect in his eyes, without the previous precautions and suspicions.

Her eyes were too hot, and Tao Hua soon understood that Gu Huairou really convinced her.This time on the boat, I didn't leave myself a boat to escape, but chose to believe her and follow her wholeheartedly.

"My lady, go back and have a good rest." When sending her out, Gu Huairou also said: "When my confinement period is over, I will definitely go to Zhengchun Pavilion to see you."

"Okay." Taohua nodded, nodded to her with a smile, and left with Moss.

Spring is getting stronger and stronger, and there are more people walking around in the backyard.As soon as she passed the garden, Taohua saw a somewhat unfamiliar woman.

"Who is that?"

Qingmo looked up and said, "Maybe it's Mrs. Duan. People in the house often say that she loves flowers, but she is not in good health and doesn't like to associate with people."

Mrs. Duan?Taohua raised her eyebrows, and quickly recalled the rosters she had seen in her mind.

Duan Yunxin, the daughter of an official who ruled millet.She should have seen this name a long time ago. When Shen Zaye first tried to make her jealous, he squeezed out the two of them's chance to sleep.One is Meng Zhenzhen, and the other is Duan Yunxin.

It's just that Meng Zhenzhen's reaction was quite strong, and she jumped in front of her immediately, but Duan Yun didn't care, she never formally greeted her, she met several times when everyone gathered, and she didn't look at each other directly.

Is it a person who doesn't like to cause trouble?
After thinking about it, Taohua walked into the garden with the moss.After all, they are all from the backyard, so it is also necessary to say hello.

Duan Yunxin supported the maid's hand and walked slowly, admiring the flowers in the garden while whispering something.When Taohua approached, she heard her say:
"The spring is getting stronger, and the flowers and plants in the yard are getting mixed up. I am allergic to some flowers. When you go back, take the bottle of newly made medicine and send it to my grandfather."

The little girl next to me agreed, and said in a low voice: "My master is resting in the Haitang Pavilion tonight, and that person's temper has not been very good. How about we send it tomorrow?"

"It doesn't matter." Duan Yun pursed her lips: "It's something good for the Lord, so naturally the sooner you give it to him, the better. Now that Mrs. Meng is gone, Mrs. Qin may not target us like that. At worst, you can pay more , let her be considerate."

Hearing this, Taohua stopped in her tracks, and went around to the back of the nearby rockery.

"Master?" Qingmoss asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"They're talking about things, it doesn't seem good for us to go on like this." Taohua pursed her lips: "Besides, it sounds like Mrs. Duan and the Meng family used to have a good relationship, so it's a little embarrassing for me."

After all, Meng Zhenzhen was charged with "framing Mrs. Jiang" before. Later, the truth about Gu's fake pregnancy was revealed, but the whole Meng family suffered.Although it has nothing to do with her, in the eyes of Meng's friends, they probably don't think of her as a good person.

It doesn't matter if you don't say hello.

"Let's go back." Seeing the person walking away, Tao Hua waved his hands and said, "There are still some snacks in the room."

"Yes."

The Zhengchun Pavilion was very quiet.Taohua entered the room and sat down, looked at the dim sum on the plate, pursed her lips, picked it up and ate it slowly.

Shen Zaiye should be at ease in Haitang Pavilion now, with his rough behavior, Mrs. Qin might not be able to go to Linghan Courtyard to pay her respects tomorrow.

It would be a lie to say that she didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Although she knew that she and Shen Zaiye would not have any good results, they were still together now after all.Being in love with her for a while, and then turning to be nice to others, it made her feel like she swallowed a fly.

It's not jealous, it's just a little chilling.Shen Zaiye's heart is really cold.The women in this backyard are all his, but he has never seen any sincerity towards anyone.If you say you will stop, you will stop, if you say you will be harmed, you will be harmed.Then what kind of mood did he use to pamper them?
As the sky gradually darkened, Qingmoss came in from the outside and said, "Master, the Haitang Pavilion is already lit."

After lighting the lamp and it was time to go to bed, Taohua nodded, yawned and lay down on the bed.But Qingmo came over and said: "My servant always feels that what Mrs. Duan said in the garden today may make Mrs. Qin unhappy."

"Why?" Taohua closed her eyes and said, "It's just a gift, there's nothing unpleasant about it."

"But she didn't choose the right time." Qingtai said: "Now that Haitang Pavilion is preparing to serve her bedtime, no one will pay attention to her maid. Lady Qin will not be happy if she stands outside all the time, just like a vulture eating , like other vultures guarding beside him."

"Your analogy is very appropriate." Taohua smiled: "But it's none of our business, let them toss. It's getting late, and you should go to rest early."

"Yes."

The night was getting darker and darker, and the prime minister's mansion was as quiet as usual, but Shen Zaiya did not stay in the side hall as usual.

When the dark curtain in the room was drawn, there was someone inside to pamper Mrs. Qin on his behalf.He silently hid behind the yard, frowned and asked, "What happened?"

Zhan Lu whispered: "King Yu was almost assassinated. The emperor called people into the palace overnight to ask about the situation. King Jing panicked."

"Can he panic about such a trivial matter?" Shen Zaiya's face darkened: "I used to think highly of him."

"It's no wonder King Jing, because His Majesty panicked, and you can see that you have a deep affection for King Yu. King Jing is inevitably worried that King Yu will take this opportunity to turn around again. The meaning there is that you can go there secretly and discuss it face to face. What to do, I'm afraid I have to act tomorrow morning."

Pursing his lips slightly, Shen Zaino nodded.Anyway, no one would know where he went at night.

"Go and prepare, be careful not to be seen by others."

"Yes."

Zhanlu went out, looked around, everyone in the yard had rested, and didn't dare to disturb Mrs. Qin's bedtime, and naturally there was silence outside the yard.So he went to prepare the carriage with confidence, and then came back to invite Shen Zaiye to go out.

No one would walk around in the Prime Minister's Mansion at night, so when they left, they didn't look around carefully.

The little maid hiding in the corner was still holding the medicine bottle in her hand, she watched the prime minister go out in surprise, and then looked at Haitang Pavilion.

She's been here for a long time, but the people in Haitang Pavilion won't let her in at all.Thinking of my master's order, I can only wait for the third watch when the heavenly god gets up before delivering it.

It turned out that I didn't expect it, but I saw it like this.The time has not yet come, why did the master leave?
After thinking about it, the little maid simply stayed here and watched to see when the master would come back.

Taohua woke up at the third watch, looked at the sky outside, turned over and wanted to continue sleeping, but couldn't fall asleep anyway.

Probably because the two of them slept for too long, and she was not used to hugging the pillow when she was alone.Tossing and turning until the fourth watch, still unable to sleep, Tao Hua simply got up, put on her clothes and went out for a walk.

Moss was still sleeping, the moonlight outside was extremely bright, Taohua took a deep breath, opened the courtyard door and walked towards the garden.

So there are many things in a person's life that are predestined.Jiang Taohua's sleep quality has always been very good, and she has never woken up in the middle of the night. It happened that she woke up tonight, and she wanted to go out for a walk. When she walked near the side door, she met Shen Zaiye who had just come back from outside.

Shen Zaiya also seldom goes out at night. To be on the safe side, he would rest in the yard of the favored woman until he left at midnight.But it happened that something happened tonight and he had to be let out of the house. It just so happened that things were a bit complicated, and he was not allowed to come back until the fourth watch. When he came back, he bumped into the swaying Jiang Taohua.

The two stared at each other, neither knowing what the other was doing.However, Shen Zaiye's reaction was still one step faster than Taohua's. She rolled up and pushed open the door of the small black room next to her.

"What are you doing here?!" Shen Zaye stared at her with unprecedented tension in his voice and asked viciously.

Tao Hua was stunned, she blinked her eyes, and said innocently: "I can't sleep, come out and walk around..."

"Who can you fool?" Shen Zaiye frowned: "Once you fell asleep, when did you wake up in the middle of the night? Walk around casually, why did you come to the side door?"

Tao Hua was really wronged: "Master, from Zhengchun Pavilion to the garden, you must go through the side door!"

"..." Pursing his lips, Shen Zaiye said, "You woman, I can't trust you."

"Master still makes this concubine feel unbelievable!" Taking advantage of the darkness around her, Tao Hua finally had the courage to roll her eyes at him: "It's late at night, shouldn't you be in Haitang Pavilion? Why did you go outside the mansion? "

"You don't care about this, but there is one thing you need to know." Squinting his eyes, Shen Zaiye said in a deep voice: "The fact that I left the house is a secret, if you dare to let the second person know, then you are finished."

Shrinking her neck, Tao Hua curled her lips: "Mistress Qin will know about your disappearance, right?"

"You don't need to worry about this." Shen Zaiye said: "I have my own way to keep her from knowing. Once the news leaks out, I can only ask you."

"I understand." Pouting her mouth, Taohua raised her hands and said, "I swear, I will keep the secret for my master."

Slanting her eyes, Shen Zaiye nodded: "Don't let me down my trust in you."

"Don't worry, you!" Yawning, Taohua said with tears in her eyes, "I couldn't fall asleep at first, but when I saw you, I felt drowsy for some reason. If there is nothing else, I will continue to go back to rest gone."

"En." In response, Shen Zaiye opened the door, took Zhan Lu outside, and ran faster than her.

Weird.
