The Chuling Marquis was named Gu Peiyuan and his courtesy name was Zhongluo. He was the second child in the family. He had an older sister on the top. He went to the palace to become a concubine and a younger sister at the bottom. He married Mu Yan, a member of the salt and iron envoy.
Mu Yan was convicted of corruption and bribery recently. Gu Peiyuan was ineffective in pleading for him, which made the emperor feel annoyed. He knew that the emperor was determined to let Mu Yan die, so he no longer advised him.
The Marquis of Chuling was already in his destiny and had three daughters under his knees.
The eldest daughter Gu Qingcheng was born in the 20th year and was married to Cao Hong, a captain of the Sili School, five years ago.
The second daughter, Gu Qinggui, is seventeen years old, and is the daughter of her first wife who has passed away.
The youngest daughter Yan Qingci has been in her family for a year and was born to her second wife Yan.
The title of King Pingling County was the first rank of Marquis of Dachu Ling, and his father was the emperor's uncle, King Yan, so even if his son really raped Gu Peiyuan's daughter, Gu Peiyuan would not dare to do anything to him.
When Yan Qingci learned that the Chuling Hou wanted to calm down the situation, he sneered and did not come forward. He secretly sent a servant to send a letter to the Sili Captain to inform him of his wife's defiled.
As far as she knows, her elder sister is not comfortable on weekdays. Cao Hong, the captain of Sili, is very drunk. After drinking, she looks like a beast, beating and scolding Gu Qingcheng at all times. This matter has been revealed in the first few years of her elder sister's marriage.
It is said that beauty is poor in life, but Yan Qingci only thinks that women are poor in life.
She had the idea of saving Gu Qingcheng from the sea of suffering early in the morning. Now she has not left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth again, and Yan Qingci has no reason to feel guilty.
In order to ensure that everything is safe, she ordered a servant to spread the story of Cao Hong's wife's robbery in the public. The more people know, the better. This made him feel that his face was humiliated. Once he poured yellow soup, he would definitely fight to the death of the prince of the Prince of Pingling. No matter what the result was, it would be beneficial to them.
In order to prevent Cao Hong from being a Nā person, he did not dare to settle the score with the prince, but killed his wife to vent his anger.Yan Qingci asked Wenqin to invite her elder sister to stay in Guyilou for a few days, using this as an excuse to hold her back and prevent her from going back.
During the Shen period, the prince of Pingling County left after a fight and decided to welcome the wedding day.One day later, the Hou Mansion welcomed the imperial physician Feng Wanlun.
Wenqin led the imperial physician into the lower hospital. Feng Wanlun stepped into the row house with the four walls of the house. When he saw the woman in white standing beside the bed, he looked shocked and looked at the sleeping patient on the couch in panic.
Excuses: The patient needs a ventilated environment, so there should not be too many people in the house.
I hope that Doctor Feng will do his best to treat Mama Li, and I will thank you very much.
Wenqin withdrew and led a group of people to wait in the yard.
The windows and doors were all open, and Feng Wanlun was not easy to speak, so he gave Jifu a courtesy. After seeing the old woman on the couch, he took out a paper and pen to put it on the table and wrote: I think Your Highness had already been seven years ago... How did Your Highness escape?
Jif turned her back to the servants outside the house, and reached out to mark the wooden table: My mother protects me, and we were dispersed by refugees outside the city. My mother’s whereabouts were unknown. I became a sold slave. By chance, Gu Peiyuan bought me into the Hou’s Mansion.
Feng Wanlun wrote: Once you find Your Highness, the subjects of the previous dynasty will have a backbone. Over the years, I have added such a medicinal herb tonics from Motaijinlie. Although it will not be killed at that time, it will also damage your life if it accumulates too much. When will your Highness get into trouble, I will be the first to take the life of the thief.
Jif shook her head slightly and said with her hands instead of her mouth: There is no hurry to do this.
She pointed to Mama Li and asked: She is kind to me, how is her physical condition now?
Feng Wanlun put the written prescription on the table, took back the few pieces of paper with secret words into the medicine box, shook his head and sighed: I'm afraid there is not much time left, so if you use this prescription to hang it, it may be more than half a month.
How could it be...
Jif suddenly felt sad and sat by the bed and tucked the corner of Mama Li's quilt.
Birth, old age, sickness and death are common sense in the world, so please feel sorry for me.
Feng Wanlun said casually that it is best to get the medicinal materials in the prescription into the best medicine shop in Chuling to avoid being replaced by a short pound or less.
Jiff received a hint and replied to him: I know.
In the study room on the first floor of the building, Yan Qingci, who was covered with a lake-colored crepe and green crane buckle, held a scroll in his hand and stood against the window.
After listening to Wenqin's report, she lowered her eyes and pondered, and suddenly asked: What do you think is strange?
Wenqin thought about it and shook her head: I never realized there was something wrong.
Yan Qingci disagreed: He does not call himself a slave, and his every move is not like an ordinary family. Where have you seen such a breeze-proud servant?
Miss doubts her?
My father was named Chuling Marquis because he was a founding hero. Although he was a scrupulous man in recent years, he was a local domineering and a Mu people from the previous dynasty. The emperor would inevitably have some concerns. It is reasonable to put a spy in the Marquis' Mansion.
Is Keef a spy from the palace school?
I am not afraid that she is the Beiyuan Emperor, but I am afraid that she has any entanglements with the forces of the previous dynasty.The Chuling Marquis' Mansion was a founding hero in the Beiyuan Dynasty. However, for the subjects of the previous dynasty, we were traitors who were traitors who were traitors. The remnants of the Mu Dynasty hated the Chuling Marquis' Mansion far more than the worry of Emperor Beiyuan.
So that's why the Marquis' Mansion was safe and sound for many years. The emperor favored the Marquis on the surface, but in fact he pushed him to the dazzling platform to be a target for others. It was not a situation where people hated each other, and if one negligence would fall, it would be a disaster.
Yan Qingci picked up the prescription copied by Wen Qin, rubbed the corners of the light yellow ribbed paper with his right hand, and his mind twisted around the skin owner who felt softer than the touch.
Who is she sacred? I will know when I explore it.
……
In the yard, Madam Li woke up from her coma. Jif was coming in with the decoction medicine. When she saw her awake, she hurriedly supported the person she was about to get up and leaned against the head of the bed, and blew a spoonful of medicine soup to feed the woman.
Madam Li took a few sips, trembling her arms, raised her hand and pointed to the hidden horns in the room. Jif took out the key hidden behind the wall bricks as she directed her, opened the box, took out a bag and handed it to the woman.
This is all the maid's belongings, a total of 210 silver coins and 500 copper coins. Take half of them, and the rest will be given to my son who is far away in Fancun...
Mama, I can't ask for these.
Keef refused, I will bring all these to your children, you don’t have to share them with me.
The woman suffered from illness for a long time and was thin in shape. When she held it in her hands, she looked like a skeleton wrapped in a layer of skin.
She said: You entered the mansion at the age of ten, just like the third lady, you grew up with my eyes. I know your nature the most. I look cold and affectionate, but in fact I am a person who is more enthusiastic than anyone else.It is not much easier to make a living in the house of the Marquis’ Mansion than outside. You keep this money and redeem yourself in the future. It’s better to find a good family to marry after you go out. As for the third lady…
The woman sighed, frowned as if she didn't know what to do: The third lady is a very arrogant person. She is just the opposite of you. She looks kind and warm, but she actually doesn't believe anyone in her heart. Since the lady disappeared, her temper has become more and more strange. She doesn't like to fight with those talented men and show off her abilities, but she also has a cousin. If she is a man, I don't have to worry about this. She is a daughter. She is already past her age and she has no intention of getting married. If the lady is still there, she will definitely be worried about it.
As he said that, Madam Li pulled Jife's hand over, and patted her skin like a dead branch next to her hand, and said: Madam knows that she has been alive for a few days. Before leaving, she is still thinking about trouble for you.
Jif pressed her hand and said warmly: Mama, but she said it's okay.
I want to ask you to take care of the third lady for me, and you don’t have to take care of her for the rest of your life. You will be at the Marquis’ Mansion for a day. She is obedient in her behavior. If there is any sign of madness, you can hold her a little bit and just take it as a favor to me.
Madam Li coughed while talking, and her pale face turned purple due to the violent trembling of her lungs. Jif held her right hand on her shoulder and her left hand on her chest to smooth out her breath from top to bottom.
OK, I promise nanny.I will take care of her for as many days as I am in the Marquis’ Mansion.
Perhaps because of the feeling of relief, after drinking the medicine soup for three mouthfuls, Madam Li's face became rosy and her breathing became very well-proportioned. She coughed less and she could even eat a bowl of porridge.
There are not many cases of sudden recovery from serious illnesses in the world, but there are not necessarily none of them. Seeing Mama Li like this, Jif felt that there was hope for recovery.
After one stick of incense, when she entered the house with a hot second bowl of porridge, she paused with her moving steps, her face froze with joy, and the corners of her lips collapsed, forming an old lead color without vitality.
Madam Li still leaned half against the head of the bed, her head drooped, and was covered with an old jacket that she had worn all year round. She held the spoon firmly in her right hand, but the porridge bowl in her left hand was pressed on the bedding. Most of the rice and water were poured, but the owner didn't react.
This is the second time that Jif faces the separation of life and death, with less confusion and more melancholy.
Tears, wipe your body, change your clothes... Everything is done without expression and silence.
Until the You hour Mo Yue brought someone to invite him. Jif, who had been in a daze for half a day, followed him and accidentally fell into the stream in the garden. Fortunately, Mo Yue quickly pulled it back with a quick hand. Be careful, she would have frozen to death if she fell into the water and didn't drown!
Jif's soul seemed to be awakened by her voice, and later she realized that she was the one who was free to worry about it.
Mu Yan was convicted of corruption and bribery recently. Gu Peiyuan was ineffective in pleading for him, which made the emperor feel annoyed. He knew that the emperor was determined to let Mu Yan die, so he no longer advised him.
The Marquis of Chuling was already in his destiny and had three daughters under his knees.
