The daughter of the emperor is reborn to be beautiful and cool, and the King of Zhenbei loves her wi
Chapter 65 Knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts
In his previous life, Shen Nanzhi discovered that he had been drugged by Jiang Yanran when he was attacked by a black bear in Qiuwei.
It was also at that time that Qiuyue, in order to save her, led the black bear away alone and ended up being mutilated.
Because the incident happened so suddenly and Qiuyue had already passed away, Shen Nanzhi was distracted by too many things afterwards and did not even think about the fact that Jiang Yanran put the drug in her food. Could it be that there were some things like pastries that she casually gave to Qiuyue, causing Qiuyue to be poisoned?
It’s just that because she didn’t take much and the poisoning was not as severe as hers, she was not noticed until now?
Thinking of this, Shen Nanzhi didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly pulled Qiuyue and went straight to the side room.
Lu Pianpian has been working hard these days to remove the poison from Shen Nanzhi's mother. Seeing that Shen Nanzhi's mother's health is getting better day by day, Lu Pianpian seems as if her soul has been sucked away.
When Shen Nanzhi and Qiuyue rushed over, she looked at Shen Nanzhi with a pair of panda eyes and some resentment: "Sister Zhizhi, children will not grow tall if they don't get enough sleep."
Shen Nanzhi rubbed her hair and said, "I heard that the new crystal pork elbow from Fuyunlou is pretty good. I was thinking of asking Ah Si to buy some for you tomorrow."
As soon as the words fell, Lu Pianpian's eyes lit up: "Really? In fact, it's okay to sleep less for a day or two. I'm young and in good health!"
As she said that, she got up from the bed swiftly, and asked while getting dressed, "Sister Zhizhi, is there something urgent?"
After she finished speaking, she noticed that Qiuyue, who was following behind Shen Nanzhi, had red eyes from crying. Lu Pianpian couldn't help but asked worriedly, "What happened to Sister Qiuyue?"
Even if she messed up the job, Shen Nanzhi was not the kind of person who treated others harshly. Qiuyue had always treated Lu Pianpian well. Seeing her like this, Lu Pianpian quickly comforted her: "Sister Qiuyue, don't cry. You won't be beautiful if you cry anymore."
Qiuyue, who was originally feeling depressed because of self-blame, couldn't help laughing when she heard this.
But soon, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Because Shen Nanzhi grabbed Qiuyue's wrist and handed it to Lu Pianpian: "Help her check, is she poisoned?"
Lu Pianpian and Qiuyue were both stunned.
However, Lu Pianpian was the first to react. She didn't even put on her coat. She just stretched out her hand and placed three fingers on Qiuyue's pulse.
After a moment's silence, Lu Pianpian's full-moon-like face almost wrinkled into a bitter gourd.
Shen Nanzhi's heart also began to lift.
"How about it?"
Lu Pianpian shook her head: "She was really poisoned, and it was the same as Sister Zhizhi's. However, the good news is that her poisoning was relatively light. The bad news is that it was discovered too late."
Although Shen Nanzhi was severely poisoned, she was discovered in time, and with Xiao Chuyun's heart-protecting pills and Lu Pianpian's daily medicine, it would not be a big deal even if she used kung fu for a short time.
But Qiuyue, who had been ignored, was only slightly poisoned, but every time she used her kung fu, the poison would travel through her meridians and had already invaded her lungs without her knowing it. Although it had not reached the point of a complete outbreak, it was already in danger.
After listening to Lu Pianpian's analysis, Qiuyue's face was as pale as paper. She raised her hand to cover the corner of her lips and said worriedly: "Miss, this servant, will this servant die?"
Everyone is afraid of death, and Qiuyue is no exception.
Shen Nanzhi also looked at Lu Pianpian with a nervous expression.
Lu Pianpian sighed, and after a long silence, she said very sadly: "With me here, of course Sister Qiuyue can't get into trouble, but I might be exhausted to death."
With Shen Nanzhi and her daughter in front, and Qiuyue now beside her, Lu Pianpian felt that it would be easier to stay with the prince.
But she just thought about it briefly. Compared to the cold prince, it would be better to stay with Shen Nanzhi.
Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
She smiled and looked at Lu Pianpian: "Since Pianpian is working so hard, let's ask someone to send the menu of Fuyunlou tomorrow. Just order any dish you want and have them prepare it and send it to you every day until you get tired of it?"
Fuyunlou is the largest and most reputable restaurant in Beijing. Any dish there is enough to cover the expenses of an average family for a month.
Seeing Shen Nanzhi being so generous, Lu Pianpian's eyes lit up: "It's a deal!"
After saying this, she didn't dare to delay for a moment, and got up to think of a prescription for Qiuyue.
Shen Nanzhi also gave Qiuyue a holiday, so that she didn't have to stay by her side to serve her recently, and could stay with Lu Pianpian to recuperate and detoxify.
There are many maids in her yard, but her only trusted maids are Qiuyue and Qiuyu.
Qiuyue is good at martial arts and protects her safety, while Qiuyu is good at literature and manages her private treasury and account transactions.
Among the remaining maids, there are two named Yanzhi and Xiuhe, who know a little bit of martial arts, but are far inferior to Qiuyue.
Moreover, Shen Nanzhi had no impression of these two maids in her previous life, and she didn't know whether they were worthy of trust and entrustment.
After all, even Mother Liu betrayed A Niang, so Shen Nanzhi didn't dare to trust anyone else.
She thought she should observe the situation for a while longer before bringing anyone up.
Because she was thinking too much, Shen Nanzhi didn't sleep well that night.
Naturally, I got up late the next day.
When Shen Yanxin came over, Shen Nanzhi had just hugged the quilt and was about to get up.
Shen Yanxin couldn't help but joked, "You kid, it's so late and you're still sleeping in! How are you going to deal with being so lazy in bed after you get married?"
Seeing her complexion gradually getting better, Shen Nanzhi hugged her arm and said coquettishly, "Then I won't get married! I want to stay in the Shen family forever."
Shen Yanxin tapped her forehead and said, "Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? The imperial decree for the marriage has already been issued, and it's not up to you. Besides, I heard that the Imperial Observatory is already asking for a date, so it should be set in a few days."
When she spoke of the latter part, Shen Yanxin's tone was a little melancholy.
She felt reluctant to let her daughter get married.
Shen Nanzhi was naturally reluctant, but the sooner the marriage was settled, the sooner she could feel at ease.
Based on her understanding of Xiao Qian'an, this man will definitely not give up.
Although he didn't really like her, he was paranoid and proud. With his personality, he probably thought that there was nothing in this world that he couldn't get.
Shen Nanzhi's repeated rejections must have made him even more determined to win.
This is always a problem.
Just as she was lost in thought, she saw Shen Yanxin suddenly reach out and help her comb her hair.
"Zhizhi, early this morning, your uncle sent the divorce letter to Jingzhao Yin to have it stamped."
She and Jiang Shiyan no longer have any relationship at all.
I believe that the news will spread all over Kyoto soon. Shen Yanxin doesn't care about what others think, but she is also worried that Shen Nanzhi will be criticized by others.
While thinking about her worries, Shen Yanxin gathered Shen Nanzhi's long hair, and with her nimble fingers helped her to tie it into a bun, and also helped her choose a set of jade headwear.
The jadeite that looks old-fashioned to others, when put on Shen Nanzhi's body, actually sets off her snow-white skin, making her look not only dignified but also charming.
Shen Yanxin sighed and said, "Mother thought that after your wedding, you would go back to the old house in Jiangnan with your grandparents. They are old and cannot be away from their family. Your aunt and the others thought so too. They originally planned to quit after your uncle got married, but recently I heard that something went wrong with the Wen family. The original plan of the two families to discuss marriage has to be delayed. Besides, from what your uncle said, it seems that he is not interested anymore."
Shen Nanzhi has been busy with his own affairs recently and has no time to ask about his uncle and Miss Wen San.
Hearing Shen Yanxin say this, she couldn't help but ask, "What happened to the Wen family?"
Speaking of the Wen family of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion, Shen Yanxin couldn't help but frown and told Shen Nanzhi the news she heard from Shen Huaishu last night.
It was only at this moment that Shen Nanzhi found out that the mother of Miss Wen San, Wen Lanyuan, Qin, was the concubine of Wen Changyuan, the Earl of Yong'an. Before her, Wen Changyuan had a son and a daughter with his first wife.
However, the son died before reaching adulthood. Not long after, Wen Changyuan's first wife also passed away due to excessive grief.
Of the legitimate children of the first wife, the only one left was the eldest daughter, Wen Lanxiang.
Based on the several times that Wen Lanyuan almost got into trouble, the investigation was traced all the way and finally found out that Wen Lanxiang was the one, which also involved several old cases.
Wen Lanxiang provided the evidence she had collected over the years while enduring humiliation, which was sufficient to prove that her mother and brother were both killed by the Qin family, and that she had been suppressed and persecuted by Qin and Wen Lanyuan, mother and daughter, over the years.
The reason why she hired people to persecute Wen Lanyuan these times was, firstly, to take revenge on her and her daughter, and secondly, she felt that Wen Lanyuan was not worthy of being the prince of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and she wanted to take advantage of this incident to attract the attention of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, so as to trace back to the old case of her mother and brother.
She knew that both Jingzhao Yin and the Ministry of Justice had some dealings with the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion. Even if she presented evidence directly to sue, it would end up in nothing. It would also expose her in advance, putting her in danger and leaving her with no way to appeal.
Because the son of the Duke of Zhenguo, Shen Huaishu, was known for his integrity and was also on duty at the Dali Temple, and happened to have an engagement with Wen Lanyuan, she decided to get involved and take a gamble.
It turned out that she was right.
Qin has been taken to the Dali Temple by Shen Huaishu to await trial. The evidence is conclusive and all that is left is to be convicted.
As for Shen Huaishu and Wen Lanyuan, after this incident, they probably won't be able to be together anymore.
No wonder Shen Nanzhi saw that her uncle looked a little tired last night. She was annoyed by Jiang Shiyan at the time and didn't ask much.
It turned out to be the case.
Before, Shen Nanzhi couldn't understand what Xiao Qian'an said, but Wen Lanyuan found him and was willing to be his chess piece in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
Now that I think about it, Xiao Qian'an didn't tell the whole truth.
Presumably, Qin and Wen Lanyuan had already realized that the situation was not good at that time, and knew that Shen Huaishu would not cover up for them. In order to protect Qin, they came to Xiao Qian'an for help again.
When Shen Nanzhi first met Wen Lanyuan, he thought she was a timid and cowardly girl.
Knowing the face but not the heart.
Not only has she suppressed and persecuted Wen Lanxiang for so many years, but she also covered up for Qin even though she knew that Qin had done something wrong, and even used her future husband's family as a bargaining chip.
Such a person is definitely not as timid as he appears to be.
I'm afraid even my uncle has been deceived by her.
Shen Nanzhi thought about how his uncle was depressed after the incident at Wanbao Tower in his previous life. Now that he has seen Wen Lanyuan's true character in this life, he shouldn't be so sad, right?
Thinking of this, Shen Nanzhi couldn't help but sigh: "My uncle is such a good person, how come he has bad relationships!"
Hearing this, Shen Yanxin also sighed: "Who said it wasn't true? However, none of you are worry-free. Changan is like a monkey all day long, and he is out of tune. Your aunt's hair has turned white with worry. If he continues like this, I don't know which girl will be interested in him."
Shen Nanzhi thought that although her cousin Changan was not very serious, he was actually reliable when he got serious.
In the previous life, he was the one who was ordered to rush to the front line to turn the tide.
No one would have thought that the uneducated and unlearned dandy who spent his days playing with cats and dogs would become a young general who was highly respected by everyone.
Shen Nanzhi had never thought deeply about it before, but now looking back, she was shocked to realize that at that time, the Dog Emperor was probably not optimistic about Shen Changan.
But he still assigned such an important task to Shen Changan.
why?
Just one thought made Shen Nanzhi feel cold all over.
He was just waiting to see him gather the old members of the Shen family, waiting to use them as his vanguard, and then use the military force in southern Xinjiang to completely wipe out these remnants of the Shen family and Shen Changan, so that he could take control of the military power!
I never thought that Shen Changan would be so competitive.
Even without the help of the imperial court, he was able to defeat the enemy bandits in southern Xinjiang who were advancing with unstoppable force just by integrating the remnants of the Shen family.
Therefore, Shen Changan's victory made the Dog Emperor even more uneasy.
Even after the death of the Dog Emperor, this suspicion was also passed on to Xiao Qian'an.
Therefore, he made arrangements in advance before Shen Chang'an returned to the court, poisoned Shen Nanzhi, and placed Shen Nanzhi under house arrest, so that he could use Shen Nanzhi to control Shen Chang'an who refused to submit.
Things that I had never figured out before suddenly became clear at this moment.
Shen Nanzhi subconsciously clenched her fists. She would never allow such a thing to happen again in this life.
However, southern Xinjiang will still invade, so how should we respond then?
Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly heard the maid outside come in to report: "Miss, Zhou Shun came back and said that regarding Miss Wen San's case, she needs to go to the Dali Temple to give a statement."
Wen Lanyuan was in danger twice, and Shen Nanzhi happened to catch up with her both times. So she can be considered one of the important witnesses.
Shen Nanzhi responded, washed up, ate two pieces of cake, said goodbye to her mother, and took a carriage to the Dali Temple.
But just as they reached Baifu Street and turned the fork in the road, their carriage was suddenly stopped by someone.
The man bent his body and stood beside the carriage, not moving away at all.
"Miss Shen, my master wants to see you. He has something important to discuss with you."
Shen Nanzhi lifted the curtain and looked over. She recognized the man. His name was Liufeng. Like Liuyun, he was also one of Xiao Qian'an's close followers.
She couldn't figure out what else there was to talk about between her and Xiao Qian'an.
Thinking of the scene in Wuyi Lane that day, Shen Nanzhi refused without hesitation: "Sorry, I really have nothing to say to your young master, and I have something important to do at the Dali Temple, so get out of the way!"
However, Liu Feng remained unmoved, as if he would stand in front of the carriage unless Shen Nanzhi agreed.
Seeing this, Shen Nanzhi didn't tolerate it at all. She ordered Ah Si in a deep voice: "If someone doesn't know what's good for them, just run over them."
Hearing this, Liuyun's face showed some surprise, as if he didn't expect Shen Nanzhi to not give him any face at all.
Snapped!
Before he could come to his senses, Ah Si had already raised the reins, ready to charge straight at him.
Just then, a carriage suddenly came from the fork in the road and blocked Shen Nanzhi's way.
