Mrs. Xie looked at Mrs. Mrs. Zhang with a half-smile, My sister-in-law is a good person.

It's rare that my younger siblings care about Xiao Jiu's condition. Madam Zhang sarcastically said.

Xie's face was ugly, Sister-in-law speaks carefully.

The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, laughed, Just kidding, brother and sister, don't mind.

Mrs Xie smiled contemptuously, In half a month, Dalang is about to get married. Congratulations, sister-in-law, she has finally become a mother-in-law and will be able to hold her eldest grandson next year.

The eldest young master Gu Ban's wedding date is set in half a month, only three days later than Gu Mei's wedding date.

Gu Ban married Zhang's cousin, a very cheerful girl.

The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, smiled softly, Brother and younger sister remember to drink wedding wine. By the way, in more than a month, it will be the day of Zhen's wedding, followed by Yue'er's wedding. The dowry of Zhen's daughter is handled by Xiao Jiu, I heard that Almost everything is ready. Yue'er's dowry, are your younger siblings ready?

Xie said with an expressionless face, Don't worry about my sister-in-law, I have already arranged for my Yue'er's dowry.

The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, said with a smile: So, I can rest assured. By the way, Yue'er has been a lot quieter recently, so that's fine. The girl's family should be quiet and gentle.

Xie Shi laughed. During this time, Gu Yue had indeed grown a lot.

She said, how could her daughter be worse than Gu Jiu. In the past, he was only temporarily confused, but now that he wakes up, Gu Yue will get better and better.

Gu Jiu was in a daze, not knowing what day it was.

In the dream, it seems that the soul is out of the body, traveling through time and space, and the antique buildings become high-rise buildings.

She floated all the way back to her familiar home.

There is still her room at home, and her mother is wiping her photos, in which she is smiling so brightly.

In the blink of an eye, the brothers all got married and had children.

Parents and grandchildren are full of children, and the children and grandchildren kneel, showing a happy smile.

Every year on Qingming Festival, they make an appointment to visit her in the cemetery.

Gu Jiu floated down from the sky and stared at his portrait. The brothers really knew her preferences and chose a photo of her favorite as her portrait.

My brothers are getting old, so are my parents.

The third generation of the Gu family has grown up. The Gu Group is getting bigger and bigger.

Parents retire early and run around everywhere.

The brothers are also busy with their careers and cultivating heirs.

No matter how busy you are or how far away you are, on the day of Qingming, you will always find time to go back home, go to the cemetery to visit her, and talk to her.

Seeing that her parents were healthy and her brothers were happy, she felt a little sour and satisfied.

She laughed, as brightly as in the picture.

In the eyes of her family, she will always stay at the best twenty years of her life.

A gust of wind blew, and she drifted away gradually, farther and farther away from her family.

She felt no regrets, everything was perfect, she was content.

Gu Jiu opened his eyes and it was dawn.

Did she sleep all night?

It was soft and wet, as if it had been fished out of the water.

How much is she sweating? It was so wet.

Qingmei called hot water and prepared to wipe Gu Jiu's body.

She walked into the bedroom, squeezed a clean towel, and when she turned around, she saw Gu Jiu opened her eyes.

Qingmei cried out excitedly, Girl, you finally woke up. Thank God, you are awake, and the slaves are almost scared to death.

Gu Jiu sat up from the bed.

Qingmei quickly stepped forward to support her, Be careful, girl.

Gu Jiu felt that her whole body seemed to have lost two kilograms, she was light, and she had no strength, but she was still in good spirits.

She asked, How long have I slept?

Don't you remember? The night before last night, after the girl finished bathing, she didn't wake up in bed. She also developed a high fever. Later, a doctor was asked to diagnose the girl's pulse and prescribe it. The doctor said that the girl was stimulated to do so.

Gu Jiu remembered that when she was taking a bath, she felt uncomfortable all over. I didn't expect to have a fever.

So I slept for two days and two nights?

Qingmei nodded again and again, The slaves are dying. If the girl doesn't wake up, the slaves want to beg the master and ask a Taoist to come to the house to do the trick for the girl.

Gu Jiu laughed, I'm sticky all over, wash up first.

Slave listen to the girl.

Under the care of Qingmei, Gu Jiu finished washing and changed into a dry cotton underwear.

I drank two more glasses of water and ate two snacks, and finally had the strength.

He called the four maids to him and stared at their left hand.

When Qingmei served her before, she found that Qingmei's left hand was swollen.

Apparently something happened while she was in a coma.

Tell me, what happened to your hands?

The three maids subconsciously hid their left hand. Wang Yi doesn't need it, she doesn't have anything to do with her hands.

Gu Jiu said, You don't have to hide, I have seen it all. But you got caught?

Qingzhu said, It's because the slaves and maids didn't take good care of the girl. It should have been beaten a few times.

Gu Jiu's face was stern, Did your wife order you to hit your boards?

The four maids remained silent.

Gu Jiu's face sank.

It was Wang Yi who was honest, nodded and said, It's the wife who ordered someone to beat the board.

Gu Jiu narrowed her eyes slightly, Xie Shi really refused to let go of any opportunity.

Then she said, I'm sorry for you.

Qingmei shook their heads again and again, The slaves are not wronged. It is true that the slaves did not take good care of the girl.

Gu Jiu raised her hand to stop Qingmei from continuing to speak.

You were all terrified of what happened in Jumei Zhai that day.

Except for Wang Yi, the other three maids were pale. The scene of Jumeizhai blood flowing into rivers and corpses lying everywhere was deeply engraved in their minds. There is no way to forget.

In the past two days, they were busy taking care of Gu Jiu during the day, and at night they had nightmares all night long, and they survived like this. Everyone got dark circles under their eyes.

Gu Jiu sighed softly and said, I'm the one who has troubled you all.

Don't say that, girl. No one thought of what happened that day. It was an accident.

Gu Jiu said to the four maids, It was indeed an accident, so don't think about it. If you don't sleep well at night, I will give you a prescription to help you sleep.

Qingmei smiled and said: The girl can wake up, better than any medicine.

Gu Jiu said, Sleep is a major issue and should not be neglected. In addition, I will give you a medicine to reduce swelling and stasis, and rub it on your hands. The effect is very good.

The girl just woke up, let's continue to lie down and rest. The slaves and servants can still hold on.

You can hold on, and I can hold on too. I slept for two days and two nights, so I don't need to lie down to rest, I should get up and move around and stretch my muscles. Don't worry about me, my illness is cured, It's just that I haven't eaten for two days, and it's a little empty.

Gu Jiu got up, went to the study, picked up a pen and wrote down two prescriptions, and asked Xiao Cui to go to the storeroom to get the medicine.

She called Qingmei to her, Is the house all right in the past two days.

Qingmei said: The Hou Mansion next door learned that the girl was ill. The old lady and the three ladies sent people to visit the girl, and they also sent a lot of medicinal materials. Miss Mei also came over in person, and the girl was still in a coma at that time. .

Gu Jiu said: Sister Mei is about to get married, so she comes to visit me at this time, and I have to accept her affection. With the old lady and the three aunts, I will go to the Hou's Mansion to greet them another day. thing?

Qingmei shook her head, There's nothing else. Ah, the three girls haven't gone out these days, neither did they go to the council hall to study housekeeping, nor did they go to the Houfu Primary School to study.

Gu Jiu asked curiously, Do you know the reason?

I heard that the third girl is not feeling well because of the bitter summer, and doesn't like to go out.

Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows. When she was in the northwest, why didn't she hear that Gu Yue was suffering in summer. When I arrived in the capital, it began to suffer in summer.

She asked again, What's going on outside? Is there any news from Er Zhuang?

Qingmei lowered her voice, Miss Qi, I haven't returned to the mansion for two days, and I'm staying in the yamen for food and lodging, and I'm too busy to touch the ground.

I heard that the master was called into the palace and was scolded by His Majesty.

In addition, Er Zhuang has already come out of the yamen, but Jumei Zhai has not yet opened, and it will take some time for it to open.

Gu Jiu asked, Has there been any news from fourth brother Gu Yu and Gu?

Qingmei shook her head, Master Gu Si didn't send anyone to deliver the news.

Gu Jiu lowered her voice and asked, Where's Xie Mao?

Qingmei and the others did not see Gu Jiu kill Xie Mao, but saw the killer dressed as a porter carrying Xie Mao's body out of the wing.

That scene will never be forgotten in this lifetime.

As for who killed Xie Mao, Qingmei and the others didn't dare to investigate.

Qingmei whispered, No news yet.

Gu Jiu's accident, two days have passed, and Jin Wuwei has come forward in person, hasn't Xie Mao's body been confirmed yet?

Xie Mao didn't go home, why didn't Xie's family look for him?

Didn't Donggong respond?

Gu Jiu felt a little weird.

Jin Wuwei's case handling ability should not be so bad. Could it be that someone did something to delay Jin Wuwei's handling of the case.

Thinking of this, Fang Shaojian came out of Gu Jiu's mind.

Gu Jiu looked out the window, is Fang Shaojian dead or alive now? In the end can you take care of the aftermath.

...

In the East Palace, in just a few days, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has cleared up some more.

He is discussing important matters with his subordinates.

The guards of the East Palace were killed in a cloth village in the south of the city. The shopkeeper of the cloth village and his staff were also killed.

Can be described as dead without proof.

It is said that thieves broke into the capital.

Of course, everyone from the court to the royal family did not believe this rhetoric.

The thief of the fart, the thief from the capital, it is clear that someone is jumping over the wall.

The so-called thieves are just deceiving the common people and confounding the public.

Prince Zhan Shi and Lord Xu looked at His Royal Highness, Your Highness, decide. The guards of the East Palace died in the south of the city, and someone must be plotting to assassinate His Highness. We must seize this opportunity to suppress our opponents.

His Royal Highness turned pale, Xie Aiqing has no news yet, it's better to wait.

Prince Zhan Shi, Lord Xu shook his head, I can't wait. Lord Xie hasn't appeared at this time, so it must be a lot of luck. It's not that Bu Zhuang found an unnamed corpse, it's probably Lord Xie.

His Royal Highness's lips trembled twice, Could it be that Xie Aiqing really suffered an accident? Did the loneliness harm Xie Aiqing?

Be loyal to His Highness, and Xie Aiqing can rest in peace.

Mr. Xu's mood did not fluctuate, and his tone also seemed inhumane, showing indifference.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was silent for a moment, and said, Taking a fuss about the murder of the guards in the East Palace, Gu is worried that he will shoot himself in the foot. The father has been very irritable recently. Will he doubt that he dares to make trouble during his filial piety? Come on, let the loneliness go to waste.

Your Highness, speak with caution.

Master Xu frowned slightly, His Royal Highness did nothing wrong, why did His Majesty want to abolish the Prince? Your Highness must not scare yourself. In addition, this minister believes that some people around His Highness should also be cleaned up.

His Royal Highness's expression changed slightly.

Mr. Xu's attitude is rarely tough, If Your Highness cannot make a decision in time, then Wei Chen will be bold and take the lead for His Highness.

While the murder of the guards in the East Palace was still unsolved, and the other princes and princes were all suspects, the muddy waters were muddy. If this matter is handled well, His Highness will definitely benefit from it.

His Royal Highness asked, Can you really pull other people into this muddy water?

Don't worry, Your Highness, I will do my best to handle this matter well.

Then it's hard work Xu Aiqing.

It is the duty of the minister to share the worries of His Highness.

Master Xu left Bowang Garden and met the Crown Princess Sun on the garden path.

My minister sees the maiden.

No gift! Is the matter settled?

Xu Aiqing nodded, His Royal Highness has agreed to let Weichen handle this matter with full authority. In addition, the identity of the anonymous corpse is about to be hidden.

Crown Princess Sun smiled and said, Don't keep hiding it, let's make it public.

It's like adding a drop of water to the oil pan, it will fry. Master Xu reminded the other side in a low voice.

Crown Princess Sun smiled and said, This is what this palace wants. Even if you want to die, you have to pull a few backs. We can't be in the East Palace, while other palaces are singing and dancing. My Royal Highness can bear it, but this palace can't bear it. .

Prince Zhan Shi-Mr. Xu stroked his beard and nodded secretly, My lady has time to persuade Your Highness, but at this time, I can't continue to hesitate.

The Crown Princess Sun smiled bitterly, Don't you know, Master Xu, His Highness is such a character, he is always indecisive when things happen. When the Queen Mother is there, there is a Queen Mother to rely on. When the Queen Mother is gone, His Highness has no backbone in his heart, and the problem of indecision is that Getting worse.

When Master Xu heard the words, he sighed secretly, Niangniang has worked hard.

Ben Gong and Xu Aiqing, you are all for the future of Your Highness and the lives of everyone in the East Palace.

Yes, we are all for the future of His Highness.

Master Xu said goodbye and left.

The Crown Princess Sun hesitated for a while, and simply went to Bowang Garden to visit His Royal Highness.

The Prince's Highness looked sad, and the recent events were one after another.

First, Fang Shaojian was wanted by the whole city, and then Xie Mao led someone to arrest Fang Shaojian.

Fang Shaoyuan was not found, but Xie Mao died.

Does all this mean that his crown prince position has come to an end?

His Royal Highness the Prince was worried and his brows were not drawn.

Seeing the Crown Princess Sun approaching, she asked, Why are you here?

My concubine is not at ease, and came to visit His Highness. Has His Highness been drinking again?

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gave a wry smile, Why is Du Kang the only one who can solve the worries. The only one I can rely on now is the wine in the glass.

Crown Princess Sun frowned, very dissatisfied, Why did Your Highness give up on himself?

His Royal Highness smiled, There is not much time. I have worked hard for most of my life and suffered for decades. I just want to indulge at this time. Is it wrong?

The Crown Princess Sun asked, Why does Your Highness think that he has no time? Is there someone whispering in His Highness's ear?

His Royal Highness waved his hand, Don't be suspicious, no one is talking about the lonely ear. If you have a hunch, you may not survive for three years.

nonsense!

His Royal Highness was stunned, unable to believe that the Crown Princess dared to scold him.

The Crown Princess Sun said angrily: His Royal Highness is in a difficult situation, and everyone knows it. At this time, His Highness should not give up on himself, but should cheer up, work hard, and plan for the future.

Working hard to plan for the future? Haha, is it useful?

If you don't try it, how do you know it won't work?

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince shook his head, It's useless. The royal father hates me, and sooner or later he will abolish me.

It's not necessarily. Crown Princess Sun said loudly.

His Royal Highness looked at the princess in confusion.

The Crown Princess Sun opened her mouth and wanted to say that Fang Shaojian was not dead yet, but was now hiding in the imperial city.

But when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed again.

She suddenly realized that His Royal Highness was no longer trustworthy.

He is so passive, always thinking of being abolished. How would he react if he knew that Fang Shaojian was still alive and killed Xie Mao.

Will he look at her with disgust?

Will she scold her for being a poisonous woman and scolding her for political affairs?

Everything is uncertain.

So the Crown Princess Sun retreated, and she decided to continue to hide it.

If His Royal Highness wants to be decadent, let him continue to be decadent.

In the East Palace, there are not only His Royal Highnesses, but also the eldest grandson of the emperor.

As long as the operation is done properly, the eldest grandson of the emperor may not have the chance to ascend the throne.
