When the two of them arrived at the door of Gu Yalai's house, grandma rushed up and said excitedly: "Master, please help Madam quickly, and be sure to save her. She has been suffering all her life and has not enjoyed a few days of happiness."

Jiang Yichun walked into the room and saw Gu Yalai lying on the bed with a pale face. Because the gauze hat fell off, the dense red rashes on her face were also exposed. There was a strangulation mark on her neck, and many of the red rashes under the strangulation mark were broken. It looked like the stranglehold was quite severe.

Bai Ruozhu frowned, was he really seeking death?

Jiang Yichun pulled Bai Ruozhu and went to check Gu Yalai himself. He still remembered Bai Ruozhu saying that Gu Yalai's illness was not good for her and the child in her belly.

Jiang Yichun felt Gu Yalai's pulse, and then pressed a few times on her body. He heard Gu Yalai groan twice and woke up.

As soon as she opened her eyes, her face was full of horror, "Mommy, why did you come back just now!"

After she finished speaking, she burst into tears. Nanny went over and hugged her as if she were her own daughter, comforting her softly. Bai Ruozhu winked at Jiang Yichun and retreated outside the house.

Jiang Yichun also followed out. Bai Ruozhu pointed to the room and said, "Go and stay with her and persuade her. She may not be happy if I am here, so I'd better stay away."

"Okay." Jiang Yichun felt a little bitter in his mouth, "I will go back to accompany you later."

Bai Ruozhu smiled and said she didn't care, and then returned to the house. She asked Mo Ju to go to the main courtyard to report that Gu Ya was fine.

After a while, Grandma Zhang returned with Dengdeng and Mo Ju.

"Mom, why is grandma seeking death? Isn't she afraid of pain?" Xiao Dengdeng heard the adult's words and asked with a confused look on her face.

"Everyone is afraid of pain. She just didn't figure it out for a moment. It will be fine in the future." Bai Ruozhu didn't know how to explain it to her son, so she had to say this.

Xiao Dengdeng nodded, "That's good. If she dies, dad will be sad."

Bai Ruozhu touched his little head. After all, it was his father who felt distressed.

She played with Xiao Dengdeng for a while, then asked Grandma Zhang to take him down to rest, and then called Jian Qi to come over.

"Assign a few reliable people to keep an eye on Ruolan to see if there is anything unusual about her, or if anyone has secretly contacted her." Bai Ruozhu said to Jian Qi.

"Master, do you think something is wrong with Miss Ruolan?" Jian Qi asked.

"I have some questions. Ask them to be more careful and don't let her notice." Bai Ruozhu said again.

Jian Qi's expression was stern. For his master to say this, it meant that in his heart, Bai Ruolan was no longer a fool. Otherwise, how could a fool be so sharp?

"Yes." Jian Qi quickly made arrangements, and two secret guards quietly stared at Bai Ruolan.

Bai Ruozhu asked Mo Xiang to wash up for her and was about to go to bed. The door was pushed open and Jiang Yichun walked in.

"It's settled." Jiang Yichun looked very tired. Bai Ruozhu couldn't bear it and asked Mo Xiang to fetch water for Jiang Yichun to wash up.

Mo Xiang came over with water to wet the handkerchief, and Jiang Yichun said with a straight face: "Put it down and go out."

Mo Xiang looked at Bai Ruozhu, and when she saw Bai Ruozhu nodding, she lowered her head and retreated.

Bai Ruozhu suddenly felt that he was too nervous, and asked with a smile: "Have you never asked a maid to serve you? Were you in the Jiang family before?"

"The Jiang family is so poor, and Mr. Jiang Ge has a clean and honest style. When I was a child, my grandma or my father took care of me." Jiang Yichun's expression darkened a bit as he spoke.

Bai Ruozhu hurriedly changed the subject, "What about the Secretary of General Affairs? Isn't there Wu Wanqing and Ling? It's not like you don't have female subordinates around you."

Jiang Yichun smiled bitterly, "Are you trying to settle an old score? The General Administration Department is all men, and women are also subordinates, not maids. I don't have the habit of letting them serve me."

As he spoke, he wiped his face and hands, threw down the handkerchief, took off his shoes and lay down on the bed.

When Ling was mentioned, Bai Ruozhu remembered Le Bin's incident, so she asked Jiang Yichun to talk about it, including how she was almost hit by the eunuch, and later asked Lu to pay more attention to Ling.

Jiang Yichun frowned when he heard this, "I know Lu Na well. He is loyal to the emperor. Not to mention that Ling Xue was not trained by him. Even if he is his disciple, he will not be partial. He will investigate this matter carefully."

"I'm afraid that he has limited energy after all, and men are still not sensitive enough to the intrigues between women." Bai Ruozhu felt that Ling's provocation with hidden words might not be taken seriously by Lü's men, but Le Bin, who was already suffering from depression, But you will hear it in your heart.

Jiang Yichun thought for a while and said, "I will find a chance to meet her when I go to the palace, and then remind the emperor."

Bai Ruozhu snorted coldly, turned around and stopped talking at all.

"What's wrong? Are you not happy that I went to see her?" Jiang Yichun suddenly laughed, thinking it was quite interesting that his little daughter was jealous.

Bai Ruozhu opened the hand that he had gently placed on her waist and said, "You are going to do business, why should I be angry? It's just that you like to mess with people too much, and I'm tired!"

Jiang Yichun's head was full of black threads when he heard this, "But haven't I never paid attention to anyone?"

"I don't know who sent everyone to me back then." Bai Ruozhu gave him a big eye roll.

"Okay, okay, it's okay if I'm wrong?" Jiang Yichun immediately raised his hands and surrendered.

In a blink of an eye, the next day came, Jiang Yichun went to the palace to attend court, while Bai Ruozhu had breakfast and went to the house rented by the Jiang family.

She chatted with Jiang Chen, Jiang Zhihe and others for a while, and then asked about Yu Chenghua. Jiang Zhihe said that Yu Chenghua would be back at noon.

"Then I'll wait until noon. If I have anything to ask him," Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.

Jiang Zhiyi looked at Bai Ruozhu quietly. She had not had much contact with Bai Ruozhu before. Bai Ruozhu noticed her gaze and gave her a friendly smile, which made Jiang Zhiyi blush a little.

Bai Ruozhu heard about the eldest lady of the Jiang family and admired her and Li very much. Not all women in ancient times could pick up and put down things like Jiang Zhiyi.

Sure enough, Yu Chenghua came back at noon. Bai Ruozhu and Yu Chenghua went to the house where they lived to talk.

"Chenghua, when you were walking together, was my cousin very dependent on Ah Chun and would pull his sleeves?" Bai Ruozhu asked straight to the point.

Yu Chenghua didn't know what she meant, and said nervously: "She must be frightened."

Bai Ruozhu suddenly felt that she seemed to have asked too directly and became the image of a jealous woman, which scared Yu Chenghua out of her wits.

Jiang Zhihe pulled Yu Chenghua's arm from the side and said, "Ruozhu must have something important. Please tell me."

"You still know and understand me, that's the way it is. After my cousin got home, she had a lot of new bruises on her body, as if she had been pinched, and her hands were tied with ropes when she got off the carriage. It is said that Mrs. Gu ordered They were kidnapped, so my parents were very angry about it." Bai Ruozhu told them a few words.
