Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful

The old lady fell into the lake? Why did she fall into the lake for no reason?

Xie Zhaozhao asked Guanyan: "Have you seen a doctor?"

Guan Yan looked around and whispered, "Miss, I think there is something wrong. The old lady cried yesterday that she fell into the lake, and the whole family didn't say anything about rushing to find a doctor for treatment, but desperately looked for you, Miss. Especially the second young lady, I think she is gloating and happy to win!"

"What did she say?"

"The second young lady said to call the eldest sister back quickly, because it would be difficult to solve the problem without her."

Xie Zhaozhao smiled slightly. Xie Xiangxiang was really too idle!

He said to Guanyan, "Go find a teahouse and have a cup of good tea before you go back. Then tell them that the ladies from the various mansions and I are packing our things and will be back soon."

He also said to Mo Yan, the errand boy who had come to help yesterday, "Go back to Qingpu Courtyard quietly and check the courtyard carefully, especially under the trees and in the corners of the walls. Are there any signs of newly turned soil? If there are any, dig them up. Whatever you dig up, throw it away as soon as possible."

Mo Yan's eyes widened: "Miss, do you suspect that they secretly buried something dirty?"

Xie Zhaozhao nodded slightly and said calmly, "The harem is used to using these unpresentable means. We were away for the past two days, and they were impatient to set up a trap, waiting for me to get in, so I have to cooperate."

Mo Yan rode his horse quietly back home, and Guan Yan also went somewhere else to kill time.

Xie Zhaozhao called Yuanyuan over again and said, "Go to Xie's residence quietly and ask the palace doctor for a prescription."

After whispering this and that, Yuanyuan also rode away on her horse.

Xie Zhaozhao and Liu Yiyi, Zhang Yanyan, Li Ranran, and Zhou Tangtang are real girlfriends. After enjoying the Yue Lake in the morning, they drank tea and chatted in the tea room.

"Do you know the female owner of the ice shop who caused a lot of trouble a while ago? She is the cousin of Master Gu. That woman is very wild. She even ran to the prince and said that she wanted to be his adviser." Zhou Tangtang said.

"Really? There's a female counselor?"

"The strange thing is that the prince actually agreed! Not only did he agree, but in order to please her, he planned to give the most lucrative grain supply to Prince Gu when he started the construction of the extension of the Grand Canal."

"Why do I feel like Prince Gu is a bit of a gigolo?"

"Hahaha, they are cousins!"

After listening to Zhou Tangtang's words, Xie Zhaozhao remembered that the extension project of the Grand Canal was probably started during this period in his previous life.

For the Grand Canal extension project, more than 50 migrant workers were recruited and the demand for materials was huge.

In her previous life, Gu Chengyan took her dowry and took over the job of supplying grain to the Grand Canal.

What about this life? Did you take Xie Xiangxiang's dowry?

Zhang Yanyan asked Xie Zhaozhao: "Does Lord Gu know about this?"

Xie Zhaozhao shook his head: "The elder probably doesn't know. He won't care about such things. He is busy enough with the affairs of the court."

Zhou Tangtang looked at Xie Zhaozhao with a smile: "No way, he should be busy farming, right?"

Xie Zhaozhao blushed and said lightly, "You haven't married yet, but you're teasing me!"

There were no outsiders here, and everyone was making fun of Xie Zhaozhao.

"Is he nice to you?"

"Does he have any hidden illness?"

"Will he love you?"

……

Xie Zhaozhao blushed, how could she tell outsiders about matters between husband and wife?

But her mind immediately recalled Gu Shaoyu's teasing of "Little darling, little darling" every night. He was like a tiger descending from the mountain, bullying her, a little lamb, without any chance of fighting back.

While they were playing, Yuanyuan came back in a hurry, looked at Xie Zhaozhao and nodded slightly.

Report: "It's bad, the old lady in the mansion fell into the lake."

"Why did you fall into the lake for no reason? Have you seen a doctor?"

"No, the old lady and the Marquis' wife are anxious to ask you to go back."

Zhang Yanyan felt strange. Shouldn't she go find a doctor after falling into the lake? Why did she go find Xie Zhaozhao?

Could he have drowned?

But he still said, "Let's all go away, there are urgent matters at the mansion."

Everyone packed up their things and drove away in their carriages.

When they returned to the mansion, the housekeeper Zhang Qing came over immediately and said, "Madam San, go check on the old lady. She accidentally slipped into the lake."

"What's going on? Is there no one to serve us?" Xie Zhaozhao got off the carriage and went to Ci'en Courtyard without even returning to his own courtyard.

"It was too hot, and the old lady couldn't stand the heat, so she went to the lakeside to cool off under a tree. I don't know what happened, but she slipped and fell."

As Xie Zhaozhao listened to Zhang Qing's words, he walked straight to the old lady's yard.

Seeing Xie Zhaozhao coming back, Mrs. Tu looked unhappy: "Madam, you still want to go out to cool off? Mother fell into the lake because of the heat, and you just came back?"

Xie Zhaozhao didn't respond to her and hurried in. He saw that the old lady was in a sickly condition, lying on the bed, covered with a sheet.

He touched her forehead and found that she didn't have a fever. He asked Mrs. Tu, "Did you invite a doctor?"

Tu said, "The doctor from Yuqingtang came and used medicine for a day, but there was no improvement. He fell into the water for no reason. Could this be caused by evil spirits?"

Xie Zhaozhao frowned and asked, "What did the doctor at Yuqingtang say?"

"The old lady fell into the water, and Taxue followed her and rescued her immediately. Her lungs were not injured, but she felt uncomfortable for some reason, especially in her heart, which hurt a lot. The doctor couldn't find any problem either."

As Tu was talking, Aunt Wang, Gu Boyu's concubine, followed up with a sentence: "I heard that there was a family whose old lady fell into the water for no reason. No matter how they treated her, she couldn't be cured. Seeing that the old lady was dying, they asked a Taoist priest to take a look, and only then did they find out that she was possessed by evil spirits."

Xie Zhaozhao said: "These are nothing but supernatural theories. How about we take the letter to the palace and ask the imperial physician to take a look?"

Tu said: "The doctors at Yuqing Hall are no worse than the imperial physicians. They can't find out what the underlying disease is. We have to think it's the work of evil spirits."

Xie Zhaozhao smiled and said nothing.

Tu said to Zhang Qing, "Go to Chongyang Palace and ask Taoist Master Qi Zhenzi to come and see the old lady. She has not eaten or drunk anything for two days."

Soon, Taoist Priest Qi Zhenzi arrived.

I saw the Taoist priest, wearing a green robe and a Taoist bun, holding a whisk in one hand and a five-element compass for exorcism in the other, and a sword on his back.

The three long strands of beard on his chin trembled slightly in the summer breeze.

From a distance, he really looks like an immortal.

He was holding an exorcist five-element plate in his hand, and as soon as he entered the mansion, he shouted in surprise: "What a fierce and domineering evil spirit!"

It was like a judge from heaven, looking down at all the people in the palace and giving a divine conclusion.

Xie Xiangxiang then said, "No way, how could there be evil spirits in our house?"

Aunt Wang also said, "Master, please look carefully, is there really an evil spirit?"

Taoist Priest Qi Zhenzi gestured with the five-element compass in his hand for a while, and then said with certainty: "There is a strong evil spirit in the east direction of the courtyard."

Everyone looked in the east direction where he pointed. Isn’t that Qingpuyuan?
