———*————*———

"I heard that the child fell off on the way..." Mrs. Sheng said with a gloomy expression.

Dong Yuan didn't dare to ask further questions.

Yuan Puying was pregnant with the child of Sheng Xiuhai, the second master of the Sheng family, and he was the heir of the Sheng family, so how could she leave Beijing openly?The Sheng family didn't want to marry, and the Yuan family didn't want to marry, but neither of these two families would want to leave anything to talk about.

Someone must have done it.

Dong Yuan didn't dare to ask who did it.

She didn't want to know either.Some secrets are safest not to know.

Since the bell rang, it was already the right time. Although Mrs. Sheng was worried, she was also sleepy, talking with Dong Yuan, her eyelids couldn't hold back.

Dong Yuan advised her to lie down on the bed.

Mrs. Sheng thought that Sheng Changhou and his son would definitely not be coming back tonight, so she listened to Dong Yuan's persuasion, got up and went into the inner room.Then he said to Dong Yuan: "Don't go back. Although you are walking in the mansion, there are so many flower trees and fruit trees in the garden, and it is spring and summer. If you bump into the flower god or the tree god in the middle of the night Not good. You can rest overnight in my warm pavilion."

Dong Yuan was about to say yes, when Citron came in and said: "Grandma, Mother Luo, Xunfang, and Biqiu have all come and asked if you would like to go back to the yard to rest."

It is always inconvenient to sleep in Mrs. Sheng's warm pavilion.

Mrs. Sheng heard that Luo's mother brought a group of servants to pick up Dong Yuan, she smiled and said: "In that case, you go back and rest."

It is safe to walk at night with more people.

Dong Yuan said yes, he helped Mama Kang to make Mrs. Sheng lie down, and then got up and went back to his yard.

Although I ordered the maids and women in the courtyard to go to bed early, but Sheng Xiuyi and Dong Yuan did not come back, and no one in the courtyard dared to go to sleep.The little maid standing under the eaves couldn't bear it anymore, she squinted her eyes and dozed off, staggered, staggered two steps, almost fell down, but she suddenly woke up.

Footsteps could be heard in the distance, especially clear in the quiet midnight.

The woman guarding the door knew that the person who picked up the grandma had returned, so she hurriedly opened the door.

After Dong Yuan entered the door, he asked Xun Fang to tell everyone to go and have a rest, and he had to work on errands tomorrow.Only Qiangwei, Mother Luo and Juhong were left to serve her.

After washing and bathing, Dong Yuan no longer felt sleepy.

"Is there still no news?" Mother Luo asked about Dong Yuan Sheng Xiuyi, and then became anxious.

Dong Yuan told her what Sheng Lehao ​​had told her, and told Mother Luo and the others.

"Could it be the imperial concubine?" Qiangwei asked Dong Yuan.

Dong Yuan shook his head: "The people from Zhenxianhou's Mansion have also entered the palace, and there are some close officials, so it's not about women. It's probably because the emperor is not good..."

Luo's mother hurriedly covered Dong Yuan's mouth, frightened: "Sister Yuan, how can you say that the emperor is not good? You will be punished by God."

In the era when the monarchy was granted by god, the emperor was born in response to the destiny.

His life and death are the will of the heavens, and ordinary people can't discuss it.

Dong Yuan nodded, and Luo's mother let go.

But in the end, what Dong Yuan said was true, Mother Luo, Ju Hong, and Qiangwei also became worried for a while.If the emperor is not well and the court changes hands, I'm afraid there will be another disturbance.

With the turmoil, both the Sheng family and the Xue family, which are in high positions, cannot avoid being affected.So Dong Yuan, Luo's mother and others were worried.They are attached to the Sheng family, and they also need the Xue family as their backing and protection.If something happens to these two families, they will not have a good life.

Are there any eggs under the nest?

After talking for a while, Dong Yuan asked Mama Luo and the others to rest, and put down the curtain to lie down.

If what Sheng Lehao ​​said is true, Dong Yuan can be sure that something happened to Emperor Yuanchang.

What the hell is wrong with him?
For Emperor Yuanchang, Dong Yuan's memory has always been a pair of thick eyes like splashed ink, presumptuous and domineering, haunting her and making her feel fearful.

This kind of fear never disappeared even after Brother Cheng was born.

Back then, Concubine Yang had a husband and son, so didn't she still enter the palace to serve the emperor?

If Emperor Yuanchang is not good...

She sighed deeply, she actually had such hope in her heart.

In the early morning of the next day, Mrs. Sheng didn't close her eyes all night, so she called Lin Jiufu, the chief steward of the outer court, and asked him to send someone to the gate of the palace to inquire about the news.

The second master, Sheng Xiuhai, came to greet Mrs. Sheng in the morning, and argued: "I don't know that my father, elder brother, and third brother have not returned all night, and I only heard about it this morning. Mother, do you want my son to inquire?"

Although he was born in a common room, he was raised under Mrs. Sheng's name, so he called Mrs. Sheng his mother, not his mother.

Mrs. Sheng was very displeased with his overtures, and thinking about what happened last night, she felt that she had shown mercy to Sheng Xiuhai many times, but he didn't appreciate it, and only thought Mrs. Sheng was easy to deceive and fool.She thought about it, and immediately said calmly: "How dare you work for you? I asked Director Lin to inquire about the news. Don't worry, your brother and third brother are not here, and there is Brother Hao in the outer courtyard. It's important that you are healthy..."

After that, he told again about last night when Sheng Lehao ​​came in to pay his respects in the middle of the night.

Second Master's face flushed red immediately, and he stood with his hands down.

Mrs. Sheng ignored him.

He himself felt bored, so he had to say cheekily: "Mother, son, go to the outer courtyard to see the situation."

Mrs. Sheng nodded slightly, and the second master ran away in a hurry.

Even Second Mistress felt ashamed and flustered.

When they arrived at Sizheng, Shengchanghou and his son finally returned to Shengfu.

When Mrs. Sheng heard the news, she hurriedly went to the gate of Chuihua to greet her with Dong Yuan, second mistress Ge Shi, and cousin Qin Yi.

The father and son hadn't slept all night, their faces were tired, and there were thick shadows in their eyes. The second master who greeted them at the gate accompanied them into the inner courtyard.Sheng Changhou's expression was angry, Sheng Xiuyi's expression was as cold as usual, and third master Sheng Xiumu's face was full of apprehension.

Seeing Mrs. Sheng, Sheng Changhou restrained his anger and nodded at her: "Go back."

Mrs. Sheng watched the father and son come back intact, and she was so happy that she couldn't hold back the tears.

Brothers Sheng Xiuyi and Sheng Xiumu hurried forward, saluted Mrs. Sheng, embraced him from left to right, and comforted him: "Mother, don't cry, haven't we returned well?"

Madam Sheng wiped away her tears, choked with sobs and said, "Mother, aren't you happy?"

Sheng Changhou turned his head and coughed softly: "You just spent the night in the palace, what are you worrying about for nothing?"

Mrs. Sheng quickly wiped away her tears and stopped crying.

With Sheng Xiuyi and Sheng Xiumu brothers in front of Mrs. Sheng, the second master Sheng Xiuhai couldn't get in the way at all.

Aunt Dongyuan didn't have to go forward to serve.

After entering Yuanyang Pavilion, Marquis Sheng Chang said to everyone very rudely: "Everyone go back! It's not that there is something wrong, what are you all doing here!"

The second master, the second mistress Ge Shi and the cousin Qin Yi hurriedly saluted and retreated.

Dong Yuan didn't know who his father-in-law was angry at, seeing that he was in a bad mood and said that again, he hurried out.

"A Yuan, stand still." Sheng Xiuyi blatantly called her in front of Sheng Changhou.

Sheng Changhou's face darkened.

Sheng Xiuyi bowed to Mrs. Sheng and Sheng Changhou: "Daddy stayed up all night last night. The child will go back to the yard without disturbing Daddy's rest."

Sheng Xiumu also hurriedly got up to say goodbye.It seemed that he was afraid that Sheng Changhou's angry mold would touch him.

Sheng Changhou snorted coldly, turned around and went to the clean room to change clothes.

Madam Sheng let go of her heart, but raised it again.But Marquis Shengchang was getting angry, and she didn't dare to keep brothers Sheng Xiuyi and Sheng Xiumu, for fear that Lord Marquis would punish the children.

After Sheng Xiuyi's husband and wife and the third master Sheng Xiumu said goodbye, Mrs. Sheng ordered the little maid to go to the kitchen to make assorted noodles, and when Sheng Changhou washed up and changed into homely clothes, she smiled at him and said, "Master Hou, eat something before going to sleep. "

The assorted noodles served with the hen boiled into soup were so mellow that Sheng Changhou felt a dull pain in his stomach.Not only did he not eat last night, he didn't eat at noon yesterday, and he stayed up all night.

The stomach is already empty.

It's just that he has something on his mind, and he was bullied to death by Sheng Xiu, so he doesn't feel hungry.

At this moment, smelling the fragrant assorted noodles, the appetite is up.

He sat on the kang opposite Mrs. Sheng, picked up mixed noodles and started eating.After eating a bowl, my stomach became even more empty, and I asked if there was any more.

Mrs. Sheng hurriedly said yes.

Citron went to the small kitchen in person and filled another bowl for Sheng Changhou.

After three bowls of noodles, Sheng Changhou felt a lot more comfortable and warm in his stomach.

Only then did his thick eyebrows that were tightly locked open slightly.

Mrs. Sheng was hesitant to speak all the time, she wanted to ask but dared not ask, for fear of offending Marquis Sheng Chang.Sheng Changhou saw it, put down his chopsticks and said, "Did you worry last night?"

Mrs. Sheng sighed, and said: "Ah Yuan and I stayed up almost all night. I was really worried, and my heart was hanging on my chest. Lord Hou, what is going on in the palace? Why are you and Brother Yi and Brother Mu? Don't you hand me one back?"

Sheng Changhou paused, and glanced at the servants in the room.

With sharp eyes, Kang's mother and others all backed out quickly.

Waiting for the maids who were serving all over the room to retreat, Sheng Changhou said in a low voice, "Your Majesty went hunting in Chengjing Mountain the day before yesterday and met an assassin..."

Mrs. Sheng could only exclaim, covering her chest in confusion.

"...was shot by an arrow, which was poisonous, and immediately fell off the horse. The night before yesterday, I went back to the palace overnight and summoned the imperial physician for treatment." Sheng Changhou said, "This morning, Lou Youde only said that His Majesty was caught with a cold. , Don’t say that His Majesty is busy. Yesterday morning, His Majesty woke up, but vomited a mouthful of black blood, and fell into a coma. The people in the Tai Hospital were also frightened. I just came back from the palace, and the empress sent someone to deliver a letter to me. I called Brother Yi and entered the palace. His Majesty’s life and death are still uncertain, how dare he deliver a letter to you?”

"What about now?" Mrs. Sheng asked nervously, "How is Your Majesty?"

Sheng Changhou coughed: "If Your Majesty has something to do, will we come back?"

Only then did Madam Sheng realize that she was overly nervous.

"The poison has been cleared, and my life is safe. I just woke up this morning." Sheng Changhou looked down again, "The doctor in charge of the hospital said that the residual poison still cannot be completely removed, but it is very lucky to be able to save this life."

Mrs. Sheng let out a long sigh of relief.

She was scared out of her wits.

"Have you found out who did the assassination?" Mrs. Sheng asked again.

Sheng Changhou shook his head: "Still investigating. The assassin was alone, without any identification on his body, he shot His Majesty and committed suicide, like a dead man. I'm afraid it will take some time to find out who is behind the scenes " Then he said, "Don't worry, I'm the one to deal with the imperial court..."

Then he remembered Sheng Xiuyi and snorted coldly.
