After the Gu of the Red Chamber

Upon hearing Jia She said that Zhang's companions were all dead, Mrs. Xing gasped, "They're all dead!? But the second wife did it?"

She subconsciously thought of the second wife who just killed Wang Momo a while ago. Could it be the second wife who did it?

Jia She's eyes were confused, and he looked beyond Mrs. Xing into the distance, maybe he was talking to Mrs. Xing, or talking to Mrs. Zhang who died tragically, and it was more like talking to himself.

Jia She sneered, "Second Wife? What is she? For such a big matter, she is in charge."

In the past, when the Zhang family was in charge, the Rongguo Mansion was not as unruly as it is now. The big house was in charge, and the second house didn't even have the slightest right to be a housekeeper. Let alone such a big thing, Wang Besides her own companion, who can she control?How could such a big thing be done.

He paused, and said in a deep voice: "On the surface, those people were all poisonous and dumb, and then they were sold to the black coal yard by the old lady, but in the end...they all died."

A few simple words implied unspeakable heaviness and despair, even if Mrs. Xing was dying of curiosity, seeing Jia She's appearance, she didn't dare to ask another sentence.

She sighed inwardly, although she knew that the Zhang family was the one who committed the crime, but she sold all the companion rooms of the Zhang family to the black coal yard, and the Zhang family who died for no reason, it seems that the old lady is more than she imagined It's even harder.

Jia Amnesty had a backache, and after mentioning Mrs. Zhang, she felt restless and didn't want to talk about it. Mrs. Xing didn't want to disturb her, so she retreated quietly. Unexpectedly, she bumped into Jia Lian who was eavesdropping at the door.

Mrs. Xing exclaimed, "Brother Lian, why are you here!?"

Everyone knew that Jia Lian and Jia She were at odds. Even if Jia She was ill, Jia Lian only visited once or twice at the urging of Jia Mu. Even Jia Min came here more frequently than Jia Lian. Why this time? Will it come suddenly?

And... Mrs. Xing looked outside subconsciously, but she didn't see Jia Min or Jia Mu's maids, it didn't seem like she was urged to come here by the two of them.

As Mrs. Xing knew, the relationship between Jia Lian and Jia She's father and son has always been bad. One reason is that Jia Lian has been raised under Jia's mother's lap and has heard too many bad things about Jia She, so he always has a bit of disdain for this father.

Even under normal circumstances, Jia Lian might not be very good at visiting Jia She, not to mention that Jia She's 'disease' was really shameful these few times.

It wasn't because of the sudden wind that he fell ill, or because he played too much with the housemaid, until the bed collapsed and his waist flashed.

He came here this time mainly because he had been having a nightmare for a while, which kept him awake all night. (Small. Lei Feng. Honghong deeply hides merit and fame.)

Unexpectedly, he couldn't find out anything about his biological mother, so he could only come to his father to find out, but he never expected that his father would say that his biological mother was poisoned!

Now that Mrs. Xing found out, Jia Lian directly passed Mrs. Xing, strode forward, knelt down in front of Jia She, kowtowed heavily, and begged, "Master, why did my mother disappear?"

Jia She pondered for a long time, "Did the old lady tell you about your mother?"

It's fine if you don't talk about it when you were young, but now that Brother Lian has a family, you shouldn't tease him anymore.

Jia Lian shook his head, "My son has only known my mother's surname Zhang all these years, and I don't know anyone else. My son... my son is really curious."

Even his mother's surname was accidentally mentioned by the second wife once, otherwise he might not even know his own mother's name.

But other than that, don't mention his mother's name, he doesn't even know what kind of person his mother is, whether she was born in a big family or a small family.

It's not like he wasn't curious about it when he was young, but when the old lady heard about it, she became angry and ordered him not to ask any more. Even Zhao Nanny begged him in private to stop asking about his mother's affairs. As time went by, he never asked again.

But as a child, how could he not be curious about his own mother?Not to mention... His mother seems to have been murdered by someone.

Jia She said: "How could your mother be born in a small family? How could your father and I be so casually married to someone from a poor family?"

Jia Lian subconsciously glanced at Mrs. Xing.

Mrs. Xing who lay innocently lying on the gun: ...

Jia She coughed in embarrassment, "It was an accident to marry Mrs. Xing back then. She was picked by the old lady for me. Naturally, I deliberately picked a bad one for me. When I married Mrs. Zhang, your great-grandmother was still there. Then Maybe it's up to the old lady to mess around..."

Jia Amnesty sold Jia Mu and Mrs. Xing unceremoniously, but Mrs. Xing, who was lying on the side, couldn't help it, "I'm so bad..."

What does it mean to deliberately pick a bad one for him? Is she so bad?Jia Amnesty didn't think about his reputation at that time, he was so angry that he got his wife, and the Rongguo Mansion was involved in the rebellion of the uncle. Besides her, which other family dared to marry him.

Only then did Jia Amnesty notice Mrs. Xing's existence, he waved his hand directly and said, "Go down."

I didn't tell Brother Lian before. On the one hand, I didn't know what to say, and on the other hand, I was afraid that he would reveal something, which would make the old lady unhappy and suffer for nothing. You should make it clear to Brother Lian, lest he be like his mother, and be murdered for no reason.

Mrs. Xing pursed her lips, but she finally went down. Although she was not smart, she still had some discernment. Knowing that Jia She and Jia Lian had something to say, she not only retreated obediently, but also helped them close the door .

After seeing Mrs. Xing leave, Jia Amnesty asked bluntly: "You have also seen your mother's dowry, why do you think your mother came from a small family?"

Although Zhang's dowry is not full of gold, silver and jewels like Wang's dowry, it can also be seen the background of the aristocratic family. How could Brother Lian misunderstand that his biological mother came from a small family?Could it be that the old lady did something else in it?

Jia She silently picked up the small abacus, he is best at collecting debts.

Jia Lian said bluntly, "The son has never seen his mother's dowry." He glanced at Jia She with some embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "I'll let the master decide this matter."

Generally speaking, when he gets married, his biological mother's dowry should be returned to him, but after the eldest sister was born, the old lady and the second wife did not see this matter mentioned, although he wanted to ask, but Afraid of offending the old lady, he restrained himself.

Speaking of which, he talked to his father about his dead mother this time, because he wanted to get back his late mother's dowry. He was a man after all, so why did he ask Xifeng for money for everything.

Jia She's eyes narrowed slightly. After Mrs. Zhang passed away, the old lady insisted on taking away Mrs. Zhang's dowry because she was afraid that he would spend it. It's time to give it to Brother Lian, but I never thought that it is still in the hands of the old lady until now.

Jia She snorted coldly, the old lady really became more and more shameless as she got older, she could do such a thing as withholding Zhang's dowry!If he didn't know it, if he kept it in the hands of the old lady, he wouldn't know who would be cheaper after a long time. It seemed that he had to find a time to get Zhang's dowry back.

"It's nothing." Jia She said indifferently: "I have your mother's dowry list in my hand. When I get better, I will help you and the old lady get it back as a father."

Back then, he was careful and kept Zhang's dowry list in his hand. The old lady wanted to steal Zhang's dowry, but it was not so easy.

Of course, this can only be said after he is in better health, he couldn't help but thumped his poor old waist, to be honest, martial arts masters are definitely not human beings.

Jia Lian looked weird, but finally stepped forward to help Jia She, and thoughtfully stuffed a soft pillow behind Jia She, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, master."

He glanced at Jia She's waist strangely, paused, and couldn't help but persuade: "Master is getting old, it's better to make sure you are healthy."

To be honest, it is too embarrassing to get yourself sick because of playing with women from time to time. Not to mention that the old lady and the second master are not willing to come to visit the doctor, even the fourth aunt did not come to visit the doctor recently. If you dare to take Daiyu and brother げ, the master should be a little tricky.

Thinking that the master wanted to ask for his dead mother's dowry for him, Jia Lian endured it, and finally persuaded him tactfully.

Jia Amnesty: "..."

Probably because he had been misunderstood too many times, Jia Amnesty at this time was so calm that he couldn't even get angry.

He gave up the idea of ​​explaining clearly to Jia Lian, and fell into deep self-doubt. Did he forget to worship the bed mother when he made the child?Why is Brother Lian's head so stupid?

Jia She greeted the Zhang family silently, and said directly: "The Zhang family was also a first-class family in Beijing back then. It is a century-old scholarly family that has been handed down from the previous dynasty. Your grandparents are the elders of the pavilion, which is not compared with ordinary families. People like Mrs. Wang are not worthy of carrying shoes in front of your mother."

To put it bluntly, even the Lin family was slightly worse than the Zhang family back then. After all, Lin Ruhai's father, Lord Lin, was the highest in the court back then, but he was just a minister of the first rank, not even the first rank, let alone Court is old.

If it hadn't been for the time when he married Mrs. Zhang at the time when the Rongguo Mansion was at its most prosperous, I'm afraid he still wouldn't be able to marry Mrs. Zhang.

Jia Lian stayed for a long time. Although he guessed from his father's mouth that the identity of his biological mother might be extraordinary, he never thought that it would be so high, but...how come he never heard of it before?

Without Jia Lian opening his mouth, Jia Amnesty knew what he wanted to ask just by looking at the stupid look on his face, and said bluntly, "The Zhang family...is also unlucky, and they got involved in the matter of the uncle."

Few people know that Emperor Pingkang has an uncle who is not a few years older than Emperor Pingkang, and he is also a man of great talent. In terms of talent, he is probably even higher than Emperor Pingkang. When the late emperor was alive, there were many brothers who died. And the sound came out.

But no matter how powerful he is, no matter how popular he is in the court, he is still not the blood of the late emperor. There is a man who would not leave good things to his son, but to his brother.Before his death, the first emperor not only personally named the oldest prince at that time, Emperor Pingkang, to ascend the throne, but also ordered his uncle to become a monk, just to guard against his uncle.

No one thought that the uncle would rebel in the end. Although the chaos was quickly put down, the Zhang family was also implicated. In the end, Zhang Ge's father and son were executed, and all the female relatives and underage men were exiled. northeast.

At that time, Mrs. Zhang was already pregnant with Brother Lian, and the old lady grounded Mrs. Zhang directly on the grounds of raising a baby, and refused to let Mrs. Zhang collect the body of the Zhang family.

In order to protect themselves, the Rongguo Mansion sold all of Zhang's companions to the black coal field, because Zhang's crimes were so serious that even he didn't dare to speak up, so the old lady sold them all. It was only then that I realized that the dumb drugs that those people were fed were mixed with other drugs, and they disappeared not long after they went to the black coal yard.

As for Mrs. Zhang being grounded back then, she couldn't even see her father and elder brother for the last time, and she couldn't even collect the corpses for her relatives. Under the depressed mood, her pregnancy was not very good. Later, Brother Hu had an accident, and in a hurry Then she gave birth prematurely, and finally died of dystocia, leaving only Brother Lian.

Speaking of Brother Hu, Jia She felt another pain in his heart. Unlike Brother Lian who hadn't raised much, Brother Hu was his first son and the son he had the most high hopes for. These children can be compared.

Back then when Zhang's family was grounded and all of Zhang's companions were sold, he was also busy running for the Zhang family, so he paid less attention to Brother Hu. He never expected that Brother Hu disappeared inexplicably like this.

Thinking of Brother Hu's body floating on the lotus pond back then, Jia She hated him even more for being blind.

Jia Lian was shocked. If his mother's family was involved in the rebellion, then... it's no wonder that the Rongguo Mansion never mentioned the matter of his biological mother. He was silent for a long time, and finally asked in a hoarse voice: "Since my grandfather is a royal Old, why bother...why..."

He also briefly talked about the uncle's rebellion, and speaking from his heart, even if the uncle is ten times stronger than Emperor Pingkang, he does not have his share in the throne. The so-called name is not correct, and the uncle is just the younger brother of the former emperor. , not the son of the first emperor, and the last emperor passed on the decree to Emperor Pingkang, even if it was him, he didn't think that the uncle could succeed.

According to what my father said, my grandfather is the old man, so why should I get involved in my uncle's rebellion?He can see things clearly, and he doesn't think that his grandfather, as a dignified elder, will not be able to see clearly.

Furthermore, to put it bluntly, even if the uncle succeeds, my grandfather is only a duke of the state, which is comparable to the power of the old man, and if the Zhang family is a scholar family, they will care about the mere duke of the state Grandpa's name?

From Mrs. Zhu, he could also see the arrogance of some scholars. No matter how he thought about it, Jia Lian felt a little weird.

Jia She said: "Who didn't suspect it back then, but it happened that your eldest uncle's autograph was included in the paper inviting the uncle to succeed him."

To be honest, this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Zhang Gel. If he had been ruthless at the time and abandoned his eldest brother-in-law, he might have been able to save the rest of the Zhang family. However, Mr. Zhang also insisted that his son was innocent. The entire Zhang family was implicated, the whole family was executed, and even the married daughter was not treated well.

Speaking of which, Mrs. Zhang was not the only daughter of the Zhang family who died for no reason. As far as he knew, Mrs. Zhang's sister who married to Gusu also died for no reason after a few years.

"It's really my uncle's autograph?" Jia Lian still didn't believe it. If his grandfather was the old man, how could he teach such a confused son?

"Why not him." Jia She said helplessly, "Your uncle is the second best in the court, and his handwriting is unmatched. The Holy Majesty has seen it with his own eyes, and it is indeed your eldest uncle's handwriting."

Although the handwriting is true, this matter is indeed a bit weird. Both the eldest brother and Zhang Gelao kept complaining, but the evidence was solid, and the Zhang family was ransacked in the end.

After being silent for a long time, Jia Lian asked, "Then my mother is the old lady's ruthless hand?"

He wanted to know the cause of his mother's death more than any uncle's grievances.

Jia Amnesty shook his head, "I'm afraid it's not just the old lady."

It stands to reason that this matter should be done by the old lady, but he always felt that if it was the old lady, the means would not be so obvious. With the ability of the old lady, it should be poisoned to death, but he didn't know until the last moment He was poisoned and died.

Furthermore, thinking about it now, there may be some problems with brother Hu's matter, but it is not surprising that the old lady killed Mrs. Zhang, but it is unreasonable that even brother Hu would not let go, plus what was dreamed in the dream, Jia Amnesty suspected that it was the Wang family who did the attack, and that the old lady was an accomplice.

He paused and said again: "I know your mother definitely didn't die of dystocia, back then..."

Back then, when he heard that Mrs. Zhang was going to die, and he didn't care about the uncleanness of the delivery room, he rushed in immediately. He saw with his own eyes that Mrs. Zhang vomited black blood...

Jia She's eyes were slightly cold, and he said coldly: "I saw your mother vomit black blood and died with my own eyes. Was there a woman who died of dystocia who vomited black blood? I knew at that time that your mother's death would be inevitable. There are some problems, but the old lady suppressed them and didn't allow me to pursue them any further. At that time, the Zhang family also..."

Jia Amnesty sighed helplessly, he was also a bit cowardly at that time, knowing that there was something wrong with Mrs Zhang's death, but he didn't dare to investigate further.

Jia Lian's eyes were red a long time ago, and tears were rolling in his eyes. He never thought that his mother... might have died at the hands of the old lady!No wonder the old lady always treated him indifferently. If he wasn't a descendant of the Jia family, he might have followed in his mother's footsteps.

Seeing the unconcealable resentment on Jia Lian's face, Jia Amnesty quickly reminded: "Don't try to ask the old lady clearly, it is absolutely impossible for the old lady to tell, besides, the old lady is an old lady after all, if a Not good, you are just like father, you deserve the reputation of being unfilial for nothing."

Jia Amnesty thought about it for a while, but in the end he didn't say that the old lady was not his own mother. For one thing, it was a dream he had with no evidence, so it's hard to say whether it's true or not; , annoyed the old lady, and then the old lady directly dealt with Brother Lian with a ruthless hand.

As for the reputation and so on, it was also the recent incident that made him feel emotional.

He didn't take reputation seriously before, and it was only after these things that he realized the importance of reputation. It was obviously a ghost, but everyone would rather believe that he was a horseman.It was obvious that he got down to his waist due to practice, but everyone would rather believe that he hurt his waist by messing around with others.

Faced with his father's complaints, Jia Lian turned his head silently. To be honest, it sounds more reasonable to hurt the waist immediately by the wind and the fool than to hurt the waist by hitting ghosts and practicing kung fu!

Not to mention that Jia Lian asked about the death of his biological mother, cried a few times in private, and asked people to inquire about the situation of the Zhang family. After returning to Lin's house, he tidied up Lin's house and bid farewell to Jia's mother.

Counting the time, they have stayed in Rongguo Mansion for a month, and it is time to go back to Lin Mansion.

Although all their supplies and food came from the Lin Mansion during this period of time, but as time went on, it was inevitable that people would gossip. For this matter, she often heard the sour words of the second wife.

Jia Min is also arrogant, she thinks she didn't spend any money from Rongguo Mansion, besides, she also gave a big gift when she went to Beijing this time, and she gave Mrs Wang another 200 taels of silver in private, which is enough for their family to eat It's been half a year.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang would never mention her 200 taels of silver, and she was only obsessed with the matter of her living in her mother's house. She was willing to accept Mrs. Wang's anger, and while Lin Ru was in Beijing, she directly said that she was going back to Lin's house.

Jia's mother was willing to let her daughter go back, and she wanted to keep Jia Min no matter what she said.

For one thing, she hasn't given up on making the two Yu'er together. She intends to let the two Yu'er get along more, which will allow Jia Min to bring the two children back to the Lin family.

Furthermore, although the Zhen family is gone, Mrs. Zhen is still there. Mrs. Zhen is a smart person, and she knows a lot of secrets about the Jia and Zhen families. These things were shaken out, the best way is to hold Lin Ruhai in his hands, if there is something, it's better to plan as soon as possible.

Just because of these points, Mother Jia tried her best to keep Jia Min, and she even pretended to be sick again.After all, Jia Min was a filial daughter, even though she knew her mother had ulterior motives, she still stayed. She just ordered someone to tidy up the Lin residence so that they could go home at any time.

Lin Ruhai's trip to Beijing was unexpectedly smooth. Not only did he not meet any water bandits on the way, he didn't even meet any men in black. Although the Zhen family was a little noisy, Shi Ding only went to Zhen On the boat of the Zhen family, after walking around, the Zhen family immediately behaved up and down.

As for the matter of the Li family, it was nothing. Lin Ruhai directly bought two rough envoys and servants on the way to serve the Zhen family.

With the maid taking care of her, it was difficult for the Zhen family to manipulate Li Shi anymore. In addition, Mrs. Zhen's speech finally allowed Li Shi to take good care of her body. The daughters of Li Shi who were overjoyed thanked Lin Ruhai again and again.

Li's family gave birth to Zhen Baoyu after having three daughters in a row. The eldest daughter was married to Xining Wangfu early in the year, far away in the northwest. There are only the second daughter Zhen Lan and the youngest daughter Zhen Qian.

It was Qian girl who went to beg Lin Ruhai at the beginning, and it should be Qian girl who is familiar with Lin Ruhai, but when Li Shi saw Zhen Lan's nonsense, she found a reason to approach Lin Ruhai, and every time she came back, her cheeks were flushed, and the corners of her eyes were flushed. His brows were slightly happy, and he was secretly startled when he looked at Mrs. Li.

Lan Yatou is already 16 years old. If she were placed in an ordinary family, she should have been engaged and ready to get married, but because Lan Yatou had a very good birth, Zhen Yingjia intended to send Lan Yatou to the fifth prince's mansion, so she was not in a hurry Make an engagement to Miss Lan.

Unexpectedly, if they stay here, they will become enemies. Although Lin Ruhai is nearly half a century old, he has been well maintained. He looks like he is only in his 30s. He does not have the elegance of a mature man, and his personality is gentle and imaginative everywhere. Zhou Xiang, Lan girl was in a sudden catastrophe again, she fell into it just like this when she was most at a loss and helpless.

If it was the other man, now that the Zhen family is in great trouble, Mrs. Li would turn a blind eye and let her daughter go. Because of this, how could she just watch her daughter sink into it.

This day, after serving her mother-in-law with great difficulty, while her mother-in-law was fast asleep, Mrs. Li quickly grabbed her daughter and said sharply: "You child, why did you go to Mr. Lin again for such a trivial matter?"

Zhen Lan blushed slightly, and said in a low voice: "Master Lin has helped our family so much, my daughter just wants to thank Master Lin."

It's autumn now, and the north is colder than the south. When they were caught, it was still late summer and early autumn, and they were only wearing summer clothes. As they went north, the thin clothes could hold them together. Fortunately, Master Lin noticed and prepared jackets for all of them, so that everyone was not sick. Based on this, she should also thank Master Lin.

Mrs. Li said with a stern face: "Your second uncle and third uncle are here for this kind of thing, just let them thank you. You are a girl, what are you going to do?"

"Madam." Zhen Lan blushed slightly, and said in a low voice, "My daughter just wants to thank Mrs. Lin."

Although she was speaking, Zhen Lan's little face turned redder, her eyes were so moist that they seemed to be dripping water, revealing an inexplicable color, which made Li secretly startled.

"Don't think that mother doesn't understand your little thoughts." Li Shi said with a straight face: "The surname Lin killed your father, if you have any thoughts about him, how can you be worthy of your father!"

"Madam~~~" Zhen Lan couldn't help but cast a glance at the old lady Zhen who was lying in the inner room, blushing, and said angrily, "Mother is talking nonsense, the old lady is beside her."

If others knew this, she would lose all face.

"The old lady is asleep." Even though she said so, Li Shi also glanced in the direction of old lady Zhen feeling a little uneasy, seeing that old lady Zhen was breathing calmly, and she didn't seem to wake up, so she was slightly relieved. Take a breath.

It's not that she doesn't know whether the old lady's room is a suitable place to talk, but there is nothing she can do about it. The Zhen family is a criminal, and several female relatives live together. Only the old lady has a special status and can A room alone.

If you don't drag your daughter into the old lady's room to talk, if you talk outside and let others overhear, your daughter will be ashamed to face others.

Mrs. Li said sharply: "Mother won't talk nonsense to you! If it wasn't for the surname Lin, why would your father be gone, and why would your younger brother have to leave home at such a young age? The surname Lin is our family's enemy!"

Zhen Lan blushed and argued, "It was the Holy One who ordered the house raid, not Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin was just following orders."

Mrs. Li scolded angrily: "What kind of orders are you acting on! This matter is clearly recruited by the surname Lin."

Although Mrs. Li didn't know that Zhen Yingjia sent her son away, it didn't mean that Zhen Yingjia didn't value her wife. In fact, apart from this matter, Zhen Yingjia didn't do anything else to Mrs. Li, even how did he provoke Lin Ruhai? also said.

Although half of it was found by the Zhen family themselves, but most of it was Lin Ruhai's problem. Generations of inspectors who inspected salt have known to make a fortune with muffled voices, and only Lin Ruhai is more serious, and he wants to report the real situation on the salt road. , wouldn't this force the Zhen family to take action against him?

Helplessly, the more Li talked, the more Zhen Lan ignored her. In the end, she stomped her foot and ran away. Li burst into tears. The child's father died so miserable. He also thought about his enemies, coupled with the cold face of his mother-in-law and the deliberate bullying of his sister-in-law during this period, Li Shi suddenly felt that life was hopeless, and he wished to find a rope and hang himself to death.

Just as Li Shi was sobbing, he heard a cold snort from behind, "What's there to cry about?"

Mrs. Li turned her head in surprise, "Old...old lady!"

She quickly wiped away her tears, tried her best to put on a smiling face, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with the old lady?"

She felt a little uneasy in her heart, and she didn't know how much of what she said earlier was heard by the old lady.

Old Madam Zhen put on a cold face, and snorted coldly: "Don't insult me, I heard what you just said."

I really didn't expect that such an idiot as Lan girl came out of Zhen's family!

Mrs. Li was silent for a while, and then said tremblingly after a long time: "The old lady is not asleep?"

The old lady Zhen snorted coldly, "How could I fall asleep." She said quietly, "When I think of Ying Jia and Baoyu, how can I fall asleep."

In the entire Zhen family, apart from the clumsy second and third couples and a few ignorant children, no one could really fall asleep.

She worries about the future of the Zhen family day and night, and has trouble sleeping and eating day and night. As long as she closes her eyes, she will see her son's death, how could she fall asleep.

She wished she could go with her son several times, so as not to live in the world and suffer fragmentary pains, but for the sake of the Zhen family, she worked hard, as long as she was still alive, the Holy Majesty would always look a bit thin and give the Zhen family a lift hand.

If it wasn't for the children in the family, why would she have to struggle, she didn't expect that there would be such a fool as Lan Yatou in the family!

As soon as Zhen Yingjia and Baoyu were mentioned, and thinking about her daughter's shady thoughts, Li Shi couldn't help it anymore. She sobbed: "It's the daughter-in-law's fault, she didn't teach the child well."

It's all her fault. Over the years, she has devoted all her heart to Baoyu, and she has neglected her daughters.I didn't expect Lan'er to dare to have such thoughts!

Li's face was flushed, and she was so ashamed that she wanted to stuff Zhen Lan back into her stomach and remake it.

The old lady Zhen sneered slightly, "It's nothing, it's a skill to be bold and black-hearted."

I'm not afraid that she is bold, but I am afraid that she is not bold enough!

Li's head drooped and she didn't dare to answer these words, feeling that this was really not a good thing to say.

The old lady Zhen waved her hand, "Call Miss Lan in."

Mrs. Li was taken aback, "Old lady... Lan'er is still young, I will punish her, please invite the old lady to-"

The old lady Zhen said angrily: "What do you think I will do to her? Girl Lan is also my granddaughter after all."

She was annoyed and angry, but she still pointed at Lan Er to pull her brother, so naturally she would not do anything to Lan Er.

Li Shi was used to being submissive, although she felt a little uneasy, she obediently called Zhen Lan over.

As soon as Zhen Lan knew that Mrs. Zhen was not asleep, her face turned pale with fright. Although she was very frightened, Mrs. Zhen had accumulated power in Zhen's house for a long time, and Zhen Lan didn't dare to disobey, so she could only coyly Follow Mrs. Li to Mrs. Zhen's room.

Unexpectedly, after arriving there, the old lady didn't get angry, but gently waved to Zhen Lan: "Lady Lan, come here."

The old lady Zhen has been pampered and pampered for many years. This time, Lin Ruhai and Shi Ding have tried their best to provide good things to the old lady Zhen along the way, but they still can't compare with the original Zhen family.

The old lady Zhen was hit too hard. Coupled with her poor diet, she lost a whole circle of weight. The skin was loosely stretched across her face, which added a bit of fierceness. In addition, the old lady Zhen couldn't hide her eyes. At first sight, Zhen Lan thought she had seen a ghost.

An ordinary call, but in Zhen Lan's ears, it was no different from the whisper of an evil spirit. Zhen Lan's face was pale, and she struggled for a long time before walking over.

Zhen Lan gave a blessing, "Old lady."

Zhen Lan is not only Zhen Yingjia's youngest daughter, but also the best born among the first daughters of the Zhen family. Zhen Yingjia also has great hopes for her, and she has been carefully trained since Zhen Lan was born. It's no worse than the concubine in the palace.

The old lady Zhen nodded secretly, and felt a little regretful that her good granddaughter was cheaper than the Lin family.

She told Mrs. Li: "Go out now, let me say a few sweet words to Miss Lan."

"Yes." Although Mrs. Li was uneasy, she still retreated obediently, leaving Zhen Lan and Mrs. Zhen whispering.

Wei Wei, the old lady of Zhen, took off the red gold seven-treasure gold bracelet on her wrist tremblingly, and stuffed it into Zhen Lan's hand. She lightly pressed the ruby ​​on the seven-treasure gold bracelet, and the ruby ​​jumped away, revealing the inside A black pill the size of a grain of rice.

Because of her special status, neither Lin Ruhai nor Shi Dingke dared to search her body, but let her bring out her things instead.

The old lady Zhen bewitched in Zhen Lan's ear: "You want Lin Ruhai? It's not too difficult, as long as you take this deception for him..."

No one knows that the ancestors of the Zhen family were descendants of the Miao people from southern Xinjiang...

Mrs. Li pricked up her ears secretly outside the door to listen, and only vaguely heard a few words, such as Lin Ruhai, Gu, etc...

She was uneasy, and she didn't know what her mother-in-law was up to. If her mother-in-law would agree with Zhen Lan and Lin Ruhai, this kind of thing was absolutely impossible. Ying Jia could be said to have been killed by Lin Ruhai. It is impossible to let Lin Ruhai go, Lan'er is a little left-handed, and she is not one to listen to advice.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Li became very anxious. She was afraid that Lan'er would be ignorant and offend her mother-in-law, and she was afraid that her mother-in-law would be annoyed and expose the matter and ruin Lan'er's reputation. However, after listening to it for a long time, she They didn't hear any quarrels, and when they were wondering, they saw Zhen Lan walking out from inside with a blushing face.

Zhen Lan's little face turned red, and she could vaguely see a little bit of excitement. Li Shi felt uneasy, and asked quickly: "Xian'er, the old lady..."

"The old lady is not angry with me." Zhen Lan blushed and said, "Madam, I'm going back to my room."

Li Shi still wanted to ask again, but saw Zhen Lan running away in a hurry, Li Shi was dizzy with anger, and when she wanted to catch Lan girl back, she was afraid of waking up her sister-in-law, and she had no choice but to go to another lawsuit. Now, she had no choice but to go back to the old lady's room, annoyed the old lady: "Old lady, Laner, she..."

The old lady Zhen waved her hand, "It's nothing, Lan'er...like him."

The same ignorance and fearlessness, and finally suicidal.

The old lady Zhen smiled strangely, "This is a good thing!"

Lin Ruhai didn't know that because of him, the Zhen family almost fell into a human relations war. He wholeheartedly sent the Zhen family to the capital safely, and then handed over the deadly secret documents to the Holy Master. This matter is considered to be over.

Who would have thought that when he arrived in the capital, the Holy Majesty would avoid seeing him!

Emperor Pingkang first refused Lin Ruhai's request to see him on the grounds of his poor health, and then asked Xia Dequan to arrange for Zhen's family to live in Huangzhuang.

Although Huangzhuang is also a closed place, but looking at the decorations inside, and the maids and servants serving back and forth, does it look like it looks like after the criminals are taken in?

Ordinarily, Zhen Yingjia committed a serious crime, and it would be good if the female family members of the Zhen family don't go to prison, and they can really serve as serious guests, but this is still holy, Lin Ruhai and Shi Ding can only be depressed and don't mention it in their hearts.

Handing over to Xia Dequan, Shi Ding frowned slightly, "Cousin-in-law, could it be that His Majesty..."

Could it be that the Holy Majesty's brain twitched and favored the Zhen family again?

Although Zhen Yingjia is dead, but the evidence of the crime is convincing, no matter what happened to the Zhen family, they should pay some price, the Holy Majesty still treats the Zhen family kindly, how can the deceased rest in peace! ?

Lin Ruhai took a long breath, and his heart was full of depression. Sure enough, as long as Mrs. Feng Sheng was still there, the heart of the Holy One would never be right.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, "Is Princess Ping'an okay?"

After Tu Li sued the Zhen family, she finally officially resumed her identity. At the plea of ​​Prince Yu, Emperor Pingkang named Tu Li the princess of Ping An. Daughter's greatest wish.

Seeing that Shi Ding still didn't understand, Lin Ruhai pointed out: "Among the Zhen family that the Holy Majesty treats kindly, there is Third Master Zhen."

That's all for the Zhen family nearby, but this Third Master Zhen has insulted many adopted daughters of the Zhen family. If people find out that Third Master Zhen is being raised by the Holy Spirit, Prince Yu will be the first one to refuse.
