Queen's Development

Chapter 85 Night Detective
Zhu Lingling was in Lingfeng Courtyard, fighting with Hongyu and the others every day to be jealous, fighting like black-eyed chickens every day, you stared at me, I looked at you, fighting very happily, now I got some warmth from Yuzhi Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly thought of Lin Yu's threat, and immediately began to whine and cry, and said after a long while: "The eldest son has a bad temper, and he has to slap his mouth for trivial matters..."

Yuzhi thought of those people who assassinated Lin Jia during the Lantern Festival in Zhaoxian County. She remembered that Lin Jia suspected that the killer was sent by Lin Yu.

She thought to herself, and said, "What's the matter? The eldest son beat you like this!"

Zhu Lingling hesitated to speak several times, and finally said: "Oh, you will know later!"

Seeing that she refused to say anything, Yuzhi said, "Have you put medicine on your face? If not, I'll get you some ointment for reducing swelling and blood stasis!"

It was only then that Zhu Lingling remembered the sapphire box that Lin Yu gave her, rolled her eyes, took out the sapphire box containing ointment from Lin Yu from her sleeve pocket, and handed it to Yu Zhi: "Someone asked me to give you Cuiweiju Xiliu, you can find a way to help me give it to her!"

Yuzhi is so smart, maybe she can guess the relationship between Xiliu and the Eldest Young Master. In this case, she didn't tell her, and the Eldest Young Master can't beat her!
Even if Yuzhi couldn't figure it out, just because Yuzhi gave the ointment to Xiliu, Xiliu would be shocked!

After receiving the sapphire box, Yuzhi asked Zhu Lingling with a smile in her eyes: "Lingling, what's in it?"

Zhu Lingling "hummed", took out an identical box, unscrewed the lid, dug out some ointment and applied it on the red and swollen face, feeling the numbness spread, and the burning pain on the face was relieved, and finally felt comfortable some.

Yuzhi unscrewed the ointment in her hand, and found that it was the same ointment that Zhu Lingling had applied. After smelling it, a refreshing medicinal smell came to her nostrils.

She thought thoughtfully, "Did Xiliu get beaten too?"

Zhu Lingling snorted and said, "She was beaten! Hehe!"

Xiliu suffered from the eldest son's stick!
Yuzhi: "..." Could it be that Xiliu has something to do with the eldest son?
After sending Zhu Lingling to the gate, Yuzhi stood at the gate with an umbrella for a long time, until Zhu Lingling disappeared, and then returned to Cuiweiju.

She went straight to the West Wing, and shouted outside the door: "Xiliu, come out, I have something to do with you!"

Xiliu went to bed early, was woken up by the peach, put on her coat and walked out with sleepy eyes: "Sister Yuzhi, what's the matter?"

Taking advantage of the halo of the glazed hydrangea lamp hanging on the corridor, Yuzhi watched Xiliu's expression changes, and at the same time handed the sapphire box to Xiliu: "This is from Lingling from the eldest son's yard, and said to let I will quietly hand it over to you!"

Xiliu was startled when she heard the words, her face suddenly turned pale, she forced a smile, her eyes flickered, her voice trembled slightly: "Lingling...how did sister...how did she tell you?"

Yuzhi smiled, and said: "She didn't say anything, she just asked me to quietly hand it over to you!"

Xiliu seemed to be in a panic, Chu Lingling probably knew some secret about Xiliu, but she didn't know if the other maids in Lingfeng Court knew.

Seeing Yuzhi still looking at her with a smile, Xiliu's heart was pounding, she hurriedly bowed her knees and saluted: "Thank you sister Yuzhi!"

After all, she hurried back to the room.

Mi Tao was holding a target mirror in one hand and a soft eyebrow pencil in the other, and was drawing eyebrows at the candlestick. When she saw Xiliu coming in, she glanced at Xiliu and said, "What does this servant girl, Yuzhi, want from you?"

Xiliu was in a mess, forced a smile, and said, "It's nothing!"

In fact, her lower body was still a little red and swollen. After a while, I washed my hands, and after Mi Tao fell asleep, I gently applied the medicine.

Mi Tao looks at Xiliu, and always feels that Xiliu is hiding something from her: Could it be that Xiliu was bought by Yuzhi?How about going to find Mama Su tomorrow and let Mama Su talk about Xiliu!

Yuzhi kept this matter in her heart.

She returned to the main room and saw Lin Jia reading under the lamp, so she went to Mama Yang's place alone. After chatting with Mama Yang for a while, Yuzhi returned to the main room with a bowl of chicken shredded noodles - this is Mama Yang I personally made a supper for Lin Jia.

On the second day, the rain continued, so Lin Jia took Yuzhi to the Judgment Hall of the state government by car.

As soon as Lin Jia brought Yuzhi and Alan Ahqing into the judgment hall, Hu Yingzhi came up with Xiongying and Kunpeng.

He smiled slightly, greeted Lin Jia first, and then said: "My lord, in order to thank Yuzhi for saving her life, I have prepared some gifts!"

Lin Jia looked at Yuzhi, and seeing Yuzhi shook her head, he was about to directly refuse for Yuzhi, but just as he was about to speak, Hu Yingzhi looked at Yuzhi with a smile: "Yuzhi, it's a box of books, full of words Books, notes, and poems."

He saw Yuzhi reading a book several times, and thought that she should like reading very much, so he specially fell in love with Yuzhi, and personally went to a book store in Qingzhou to choose a box of books.

Yuzhi really likes books, she was overjoyed when she heard this, her eyes sparkled: "Really?"

She was afraid that Lin Jia would not let her take it in, so she looked at Lin Jia with burning eyes.

Seeing Yuzhi like this, Hu Yingzhi couldn't help being sour, but smiled extremely gently on his face.

Seeing that Yu Zhi liked it so much, Lin Jia regretted it so much—I knew I would have asked people to buy more books and give them all to Yu Zhi—he waved his hand and said, "Since you like it, just accept it!"

Seeing Lin Jia let go, Hu Yingzhi smiled and cupped his hands, and took Yuzhi to look at the camphor box on the porch.

After opening the box, Yu Zhi saw several delicate printed brocade boxes on top of a stack of books, and couldn't help but be taken aback: "This is——"

Hu Yingzhi smiled immediately, showing a pair of cute little canine teeth: "I'm about to ask you to do something!"

Yuzhi just got so many books from others, how can she refuse, she hurriedly said: "What's the matter?"

Hu Yingzhi smiled and said: "I just opened a rouge and gouache shop in Qingzhou City. These are some kinds of rouge and ointment made by the fragrant ladies in the shop. There are also eyebrows from the Western Regions. I just need someone to try it out. Please." Try it and tell me the result!"

Yuzhi's eyes lit up when she heard that, "Is it the lady who made incense in the shop in Zhao County?"

Hu Yingzhi smiled and said "huh".

Yuzhi smiled and said, "I'm very interested in making incense. After I try it, can you take me to meet your incense maker?"

Hu Yingzhi naturally agreed, and ordered Xiongying and Kunpeng to help Yuzhi move the box of books to the warm pavilion where the tea was made.

Yuzhi hurriedly said, "I'll open the door!"

She took out the key and opened the lock, and watched Xiongying and Kunpeng move the box into the warm pavilion—because she was in charge of the tea, the warm pavilion became her little safe haven.

After sending Hu Yingzhi away, Yuzhi lit the small charcoal stove and began to boil water to make tea for Lin Jia.

During the interval of boiling water, Yu Zhi picked and selected a picture book with poems from the camphor wood box and read it.

The paper quality of this book is exquisite, the printing is clear, and the paintings on it are also very artistic, Yu Zhi likes it very much.

While flipping through it happily, she thought: People still have to do good deeds, really good people get rewarded!
Helping Hu Yingzhi was just a matter of lifting a finger, but Hu Yingzhi gave her favorite book and rouge powder.

While Yuzhi was reading a book warmly on the porch, Hu Yingzhi was discussing with Lin Jia how to prevent locust plagues in autumn-Qingzhou is a land of plenty in the north, but it is also a place where locust plagues often occur, and locust plagues need to be prevented every year.

After talking for a while, both of them felt a little thirsty, just in time Yuzhi brought in a freshly brewed pot of Maojian, and each of them offered a cup of tea.

When Yuzhi went out, Hu Yingzhi held a teacup and looked at Yuzhi's back, planning silently.

Lin Jia's future is limitless. Apart from the possibility of being adopted by His Majesty and becoming the crown prince, she can at least succeed the prince in the future and become the next generation king of Xingping County. How could such a Lin Jia marry Yu Zhi as his wife?

In this case, he just waited patiently. Even if Lin Jia took Yu Zhi as his concubine, Lin Jia would still marry a wife in the future. If Lin Jia's wife was jealous, then he still had a chance!

Hu Yingzhi was born in the market, he doesn't care about virginity, he himself is not a virgin, why should Yuzhi be a virgin?

Besides, even if he is a virgin, as long as he and Yuzhi have a sincere relationship and stay together for the rest of their lives, does it matter if Yuzhi is a virgin or not?
As soon as Yuzhi walked out, she heard Lin Jia and Hu Yingzhi talking again behind her, as if they were talking about the method of controlling locusts again, she couldn't help laughing, turned her head and said, "Do you want to eliminate locusts?"

Seeing her smiling and confident, Lin Jia smiled and said, "Do you have a plan?"

Yuzhi stood outside the threshold, and said seriously: "There was a locust plague in our village and nearby villages before. I remember it clearly. There were locusts everywhere, densely packed, and it was disgusting! Later, a county magistrate came from our place. Teach everyone to raise ducks, put the ducks in the fields to eat locusts, my family raised hundreds of them at that time, it was very effective!"

Lin Jia heard this, and immediately said: "I remember reading this method of controlling locusts in a Tang Dynasty notebook, which is very detailed... That book is now in my father's study, I will go look for it at night!"

Yu Zhi immediately said: "I will accompany you there with a lantern!"

Lin Jiaxiu's long eyes were shining brightly: "Okay!"

Hu Yingzhi: "..." I feel so uncomfortable!

Back at the Prince's Mansion in the evening, Lin Jia asked Yuzhi to wear the servant's clothes, and she really took Yuzhi out to the study.

At this time, the night was gradually deepening, and there was silence all around. There were glazed hydrangea lamps hanging at intervals in the corridor, reflecting the stagnant water on the ground brightly.

Seeing that there was no one around, Lin Jia stretched out her hand to hold Yu Zhi's hand, and said softly: "There is a back door in Daddy's outer study, let's go in through the back door!"

Yuzhi felt the excitement of adventure, her heart was pounding, and her hands and feet were brisk. She originally wanted to shake off Lin Jia's hand, but when she found that Lin Jia's hand was a little cold, she hurriedly held Lin Jia's hand and helped him. Warm your hands.

The night wind was damp and cold, blowing through Lin Jia's summer robe, but being held by Yuzhi's warm and soft hands, Lin Jia felt warm in his heart, and he took Yuzhi all the way into the hallway behind the courtyard of the outer study , entered another Zhanshan ear room
The Zhuanshan ear room was empty, a white jade candlestick was placed on a simple table, the candle flame was flickering and flickering, a bit scary.

Lin Jia led Yuzhi into the wing room familiarly.

After leaving the wing room, the two walked forward along the veranda, and soon came to the door of the outer study.

Lin Jia said softly: "Yu Zhi, this is my father's study!"

There were two guards guarding the door of the study, but Lin Jia came and went frequently, and the prince never stopped them, so they kept silent and let Lin Jia bring Yuzhi in.

Arriving at the study of King Xingping, seeing the gorgeous and delicate decorations inside, Yuzhi chuckled lightly: "My lord really enjoys it so much!"

Lin Jia laughed and said, "Daddy always stays in the study outside or in concubine Ji's room—he loves to enjoy himself so much, so naturally he has to tidy up the place where he lives comfortably!"

Yuzhi said softly: "Why doesn't he live with Princess Li?"

Lin Jia stood in front of the tall rosewood bookshelf flipping through books, and said, "I'll talk to you when I get back!"

Knowing that Yuzhi also likes to read books, he said, "You should look for it too, Daddy has a lot of books here, so tell me I got them when the time comes!"

Yuzhi flipped through the pages, and saw that there were several books that looked like story books, so she took them out and said, "I picked three books!"

It didn't take long for Lin Jia to find the notebook of the Tang Dynasty, and left with Yu Zhi in a swaggering manner.
