The author has something to say: I saw that some relatives were discussing the number of nasturtium seeds. There is one point that was not explained in the article. Let me talk about it now:

There are nine golden lotus seeds——

One for Lin Ruhai, one for Tu Yan, and one for Daiyu first, and half for production, so the number of remaining nasturtium seeds now is five and a half.

After all, Tu Yan had limited manpower, and it was difficult to verify the Gao family without being noticed, so he reported the matter to the emperor.The emperor was busy with government affairs, and the chief eunuch of the harem came to report that Zhen Shun-pin was in a coma and could not take any medicine. Seeing Tu Yan reporting the half-baked matter, he couldn't help laughing angrily.

"You are too good at hiding! This time, I don't have time to take care of this matter. You are idle all day, and you are the one to investigate the affairs of the Gao family. I will give you a few people, just order them. After pondering for a moment, he said again: "I know you want to avoid suspicion. You don't have to worry about the affairs of Cheng Junwang. I have arranged someone else."

"...Yes, my son complies with the order." Tu Yan hesitated for a moment before accepting the order.

Before Tu Yan could leave, Dai Quan suddenly came in from the outside to report: "Your Majesty, the Empress only sent someone to report that Concubine Zhen Shun is dead."

The emperor only frowned when he heard this, kept the ink pen in his hand, and said, "Understood. This matter will be handled by the empress according to the regulations."

This means that the funeral will be conducted in accordance with the rules of the concubine's funeral ceremony, and there will be no posthumous title.The people in the palace knew that Zhen Shun's concubine fell out of favor, and also saw that the emperor did not show any kindness after his death, so naturally they were not dedicated enough to the funeral.The queen doesn't like Zhen Shunpin, but as a queen, she still handles it according to the established rules. As for the stealing and cheating of the subordinates, as long as it is not on the bright side, she will ignore it.

Apart from Concubine Zhen Shun, only Concubine Zhen of Chengjun remained in the Zhen family.When the news came, Mrs. Zhen was stunned, tightly hugging the little prince in her arms, without a drop of tears.

"Brother Xun, there are only us mother and son left."

At this time, the servant girl Chunhua came in and reported: "Princess, the prince is here."

King Cheng came in with his brows intertwined, with a cold and impatient expression on his face. He didn't even look at Zhen's mother and son. He sat there and asked, "What's the matter with sending someone to call me? Tell me quickly, I have something to do ahead of me."

Zhen Shi is used to his attitude, but seeing brother Xun's eyes shrinking, she feels a pain in her heart.While patting Brother Xun's back to comfort him, he said flatly, "I know Princess Chunqin has something to do with that genius doctor Fan Shu, and I want to ask Princess Chunqin to invite Fan Shu to show Brother Xun. Maybe it can be cured."

"Just take care of such trivial matters, why come to me?" Seeing her mentioning Xiao Shizi, King Cheng glanced at her, and immediately looked away with displeasure on his face.

Xun Ge'er was born before full term, and took medicine, which made Xun Ge'er born in extremely bad health, now he is almost five years old, but he looks like a two or three year old child.Brother Xun's skin is very white, morbidly white, and very thin. The blue blood vessels on his body are very obvious. His lips are not normally rosy, but dark purple. Not to mention scary at night, even in broad daylight. Doubt it is alive.

Brother Xun is a child after all, and he has never been out. Years ago, he heard the laughter of children outside, so he ran out out of curiosity, and scared the little princes and young ladies from the two concubines in the mansion to tears. Although Concubine Gao said nothing, the other Concubine Chen felt sorry for the child, and because Clan Zhen had long since fallen out of favor and had little status, she stood outside the gate and said a lot of nasty things.If only talking about the Zhen family, it would be fine, but the Chen side concubine not only brought the Zhen family along, but also pointed at the young prince, Zhen's family was furious, rushed out and slapped Chen side concubine to the ground.Concubine Chen cried to the king of the county, and the king of Cheng went to the Zhen family to scold her, not because he felt sorry for the concubine Chen, but because he disliked the little prince to go out and embarrass him.

This has always been what the Zhen family hates the king of Cheng the most, but the father dislikes his own son. Besides, if the king of Cheng didn't want to tie the Zhen family to the palace of the king of Cheng as soon as possible, why would she be so anxious to get pregnant in Xiaozhong and be forced to marry her? Drug production.

Taking a full view of the expression on Chengjun King's face, the last trace of hesitation in Zhen's heart was completely cut off.

Zhen said: "Concubine Gao is taking care of everything in the mansion now. If I want to invite Fan Shu, I have to go to Prince Chun's mansion. Concubine Gao has complicated affairs, do you have time to accompany me there?"

Less than half a year after Zhen's family was defeated, King Cheng seized her housekeeping power under the pretext of being an excuse, which was also the reason why she was struggling in the Prince's Mansion.If it wasn't for her generous dowry, and the king of Chengjun and Concubine Gao were worried about forcing too much and causing trouble, she still doesn't know what to do now.

Chengjun Wang thought that the second brother of Zhen's family had killed the whole family of Princess Chun, so he went to beg him.Of course, in order to prevent Mrs. Zhen from seeing other people in private, all the people who were sent to follow the car along the way were designated by him.

Hearing that Mrs. Zhen came, Lin Qingyun was surprised.

Originally, the two of them agreed to see each other again at Muni Temple on the first day of next month. In fact, after reporting the matter to the emperor, she no longer planned to have any further contact with Mrs. Zhen, but she never thought of changing her mind about agreeing to invite Fan Shu.Fan Shu actually knew a little about the affairs of the young son of Chengjun Prince's Mansion, but because there were many troubles in that mansion, Fan Shu didn't want to get involved, so he didn't accept Zhen's invitation.She is not sure whether she can invite Fan Shu, so she can only try her best, and take it as a reward in exchange for that letter.

Welcoming Mrs. Zhen into the hall, the maids brought tea.

Huamei reported in front of Lin Qingyun: "Princess Chengjun came alone. The high side concubine didn't come, and the two maids who followed were all from Princess Chengjun. I asked Xiao Baozi to go ahead and ask, and the guards who followed the car The mother-in-law and the others spoke vaguely, and it doesn't look like they are obeying the orders of Chengjun Princess."

After hearing this, Lin Qingyun knew it well.

After entering the hall, Mrs. Zhen asked her intention: "When will Princess Chun invite Fan Shu?"

"I've sent a letter. No matter whether he can come or not, there will be news in ten days."

Zhen was slightly surprised, and said with a sarcastic smile: "Princess Chun can't even do this right? I thought I was holding something that everyone wanted in my hand. It can be seen that Concubine Chun's life is going smoothly, and such a treasure is not tempted. It’s just that you don’t want it, so doesn’t Prince Pure want it?”

Lin Qingyun ignored the provocations and provocations, and said lightly: "It's rare for the princess of Chengjun to go out freely, but she should be more relaxed. I'm afraid there will be no such good opportunities in the future. You don't need to mention what you said before, my lord If you are not interested in this, I am no longer allowed to intervene, and I invited Fan Shu for you, just for the sake of the young prince."

Zhen Shi was taken aback, as if she didn't believe that she was willing to let go, but after a long time of careful observation, it really didn't look like a fake.As a result, Zhen Shi panicked instead, and said in a very cold tone: "You really don't want to talk anymore?"

Lin Qingyun pretended to be puzzled and said: "You and I have a feud. It made sense that you were willing to beg me for the sake of the young son. Now that I have invited Fan Shu, there is nothing else I can do. Why do you want to talk to me?"

Mrs. Zhen looked a little depressed, and said mockingly: "Who will let you marry me? Prince Chun, the only legitimate son of the dynasty, the only prince prince among the princes, is already recognized by everyone as an invisible prince. Who has his limelight now? Sheng? If there is another better choice, can I come and ask you?"

"You can ask the emperor."

Mrs. Zhen laughed, and her laughter was full of sarcasm: "You can't be so naive, right? Who am I? I am the daughter of the Zhen family, the daughter of a criminal minister, and the king of Chengjun is the son of the emperor. Could the emperor be partial to helping me?" Are you looking at me? But the emperor likes my Brother Xun a little bit..." Mrs. Zhen didn't say the following words, after all, it would be treasonous to speak out, so even if she felt extremely resentful, she couldn't resent for the sake of the little prince.

It's not that the emperor didn't take care of the young prince of Chengjun's palace. In the first two years, he asked the imperial physicians of the imperial hospital to see him, but the imperial physicians were helpless, and the emperor never asked again after that.Perhaps compared to the thought and effort spent on Tu Yan, the emperor really didn't like the young prince of the Chengjun Prince's Mansion. The only one is the legitimate son, but the youngest son is the emperor's grandson, and the emperor has many.

Mrs. Zhen got up to say goodbye, and before leaving, she suddenly said: "You said you were not interested, why did you take that box away? I think the Pure Prince's Mansion will be very lively in the future."

Lin Qingyun understood what she meant, but he was unmoved, and only said: "If I can invite Fan Shu, I can make him leave. Your little son's illness cannot be cured overnight."

Zhen's face changed, and finally said nothing.

Everyone has weaknesses, and Zhen's weaknesses are obvious at a glance. Even if Lin Qingyun didn't want to threaten the child, in order to prevent Zhen's madness, he had to use it as a threat.I only hope that Zhenshi can always remember that if she takes a wrong step, Xiao Shizi will follow her forever.Naturally, she would not do anything to a child, but as Zhen Shi herself said, once she is gone, no one will take care of Xiaoshizi sincerely.

Mrs. Zhen was already a bit of a madman. Once Zhen Shunpin died, all she had was the young prince and [-] gold, and the [-] gold was the guarantee of her and the young prince's survival, so how could she hand it over so easily.

She also talked about this matter with Tu Yan last night, talking about why Zhen Shi revealed her secret, it was just to save her life.No one knew about this before, so what if Tanchun knows?Outsiders don't move, even if you are as smart as Tanchun, you can only rot the secret in your stomach.Concubine Qi Shu's mother and son have always liked to marry courtiers and gain support. Now that the Zhen family is useless, and death from illness is the best choice, how can the Zhen family sit still and wait for death.As soon as the [-] gold was exposed, Concubine Qi Shu's mother and son were naturally envious. It may be that they did not try to coax Mrs. Zhen into defrauding the gold, but Mrs. Zhen dare not be naive.

If the king of Chengjun did not come to the gold, the emperor would be even less likely, so no one naively thought that the emperor would solve the matter by summoning people for trial.

These days, she has been thinking about Mrs. Zhen, thinking about what Mrs. Zhen said in the back hall of Muni Temple that day, full of resentment towards King Chengjun, and today she heard her resentment towards the emperor, as well as Concubine Qi Shu's mother and son. Obviously, if she got gold, she would die of illness, how could she let others slaughter her?So, what will Zhenshi do?

Ten days later, Fan Shu received a reply letter. Fan Shu said that he could treat Xiaoshizi, but he could not be in the county prince's mansion.

Lin Qingyun only told Zhen Shi the news, and Zhen Shi took care of the rest.

The Zhen family looks like a noble concubine of the county, but in fact she has no power in her hands, and her entry and exit are restricted.That Fan Shu didn't want to come to the Prince's Mansion, and fell into Mrs. Zhen's arms, and she didn't want to stay in the Prince's Mansion for medical treatment. She was afraid that Gao and others would play tricks, so she went to Prince Cheng again.Although King Cheng didn't care about Xiao Shizi's condition, he was his own son and a legitimate son, and everything was up to Zhen Shi.After getting permission, Zhen Shi ordered someone to furnish a house.When she got married, the dowry given by the Zhen family was very generous. There were three mansions in the middle of the capital, six shops of various sizes, and the locations were all good. Now she has chosen a house not far from the county prince's mansion as a medical treatment. At that time, she will also live there, staying away from the disputes in the county palace for the time being.

The [-] gold has not yet been obtained, the county palace will only monitor her, she is safe for the time being, she only needs to guard her brother Xun.

The Zhen family stopped coming out, and Lin Qingyun's life calmed down.

This day, Tu Yan took her out of the mansion to inspect the clubhouse under construction.It took a lot of time to select the site and design the layout of this place, and the construction didn't start until March this year. All affairs were coordinated by Tu Yan and handed over to the second housekeeper of the mansion to supervise and manage.Now four or five months have passed, and the work is basically completed everywhere, but the follow-up tasks such as transplanting flowers and plants, buying tables, chairs, tea sets, etc. are more cumbersome. Lin Qingyun thought that Wang Xifeng would be entrusted to take care of the future, and the other party was in Xiaoli, so he didn't rush. Let it grow slowly, and choose an auspicious day in the spring of next year to open.

Xiangsi and Nanny Li stayed in the mansion to look after Brother Rui, and Chu Yang followed out. Bailing Huamei loves to be lively, and she is also a 21-year-old girl now.Bai Ling has a family. Her parents have already asked for grace, and when they reach their age, they will be the masters of their own family.Huamei said that she didn't want to go out, and she didn't have any family members, so she wanted to stay in the mansion.

The size of the clubhouse is not small, and the inside is not much different from the Grand View Garden. It not only provides banquets and gatherings on weekdays, but also provides accommodation.Since all the guests are entertained by women, they are all women from management to service. In terms of safety, the large courtyard next to the clubhouse is the residence of the guards, who are responsible for day and night patrols.

After visiting a few places, a group of people sat and rested by the pool, with a few ginkgo and red maple trees behind them, and the ground was covered with yellow and red fallen leaves, which was very poetic and picturesque.Fishing and banquets can be held here, so there is a guest courtyard behind a small piece of holly not far away.

While looking at it, I discussed some improvements with Tu Yan, and then I didn’t continue to walk around. There are many tree holes that were just dug on the ground. It’s autumn now, which is not a good time to plant trees and flowers, and it’s not waiting to open, so some Jingui The flowers and plants that are not easy to support have not been planted for the time being.

Coming out of the clubhouse, Bai Ling suddenly said: "Princess, Sister Bailu's cloth shop is not far ahead, let's go and have a look, I heard that Sister Bailu is happy."

Counting that Bailu has been married for a year, she used to go to the palace to pay her respects every month, but she hasn't come in the past two or three months, saying that she just got married and is raising a baby at home.Thinking that there is nothing wrong at the moment, and on the way, let the carriage go to cloth village.

When he arrived at the place, Tu Yan hugged Chuyang and said, "I won't go in. Chuyang has been wanting to come out. I'll take him to the street for a stroll. We'll meet in the teahouse ahead later."

"En." Lin Qingjun teased Chuyang, waved goodbye to him, and turned to enter the cloth village behind him after seeing the father and son leaving.

This cloth shop is called Fang Ji Cloth House, with two gates and a small courtyard. In view of the location, Fang Shan is not too rich to buy this property.Fang Shan has been in the palace for several years. Although he is diligent and capable, he still can't save such a shop, half of which is funded by his uncle.

The business in the store was good, Bai Ling went in first, and when Lin Qingyun entered, only Bai Lu was there, and he avoided it just now as a foreigner.Bailu has a ruddy complexion, is slightly fatter, and speaks with a smile, without asking, he knows how satisfied he is now.Bailu welcomed her to sit in the back room, served the best tea, and talked about the news outside.The two Bailing Thrushes stood at the door, watching the movement in the store through the curtain, always feeling fresh.

At this time another guest came in, Bai Ling whispered, "It's from the Jia family."

Lin Qingjun asked casually, "Who is it?"

"I don't remember what it's called, but I just remember it was the maid next to Miss Jia's third."

Lin Qingyun felt something strange in her heart, got up and walked to the door curtain, lifted a slit and glanced out, it turned out to be the girl in front of Tanchun, called Sister Chan.Sister Cicada came over and bought a foot of fine cotton cloth, two-color needlework, and left after paying the bill.

Bai Lu saw that she was not looking right, so he asked: "What's wrong with her? I don't know who she is, and she only bought things at our house in the past six months. I met her twice when I was looking at the shop, so I asked about it. Which girl is she from, she just smiled and didn't speak."

The big maids in front of Tanchun are Shishu and Cuimo, and Sister Chan is just a little girl who doesn't walk around with Tanchun, and Bailu doesn't recognize them.This girl Bai Ling is very inquisitive and caring about people. She has been to Jia's house in the past and met Sister Cicada twice, so she remembered a general impression.

"I can't tell what's wrong." At first, I just felt strange, Jia's house is far away from here, even if Sister Cicada wants to buy something, how come here?She also remembered that when Sister Cicada came in, she looked around, bought something and then looked at the street outside the store, as if she saw someone, so she casually took a foot of cotton cloth to pay the bill.Recently, Tanchun did a scene that made her particularly concerned, so now she saw Tanchun's girl's whereabouts sneaky, so she naturally paid attention. "Bailing, go outside and find a guard to follow that girl, see where she goes, and see who she is."

Seeing that something was unusual, Bailing hurried to find someone.

She didn't wait in the cloth village, but went to the teahouse to meet Tu Yan Chuyang.

Tu Yan was in the private room, and ordered someone to wait for her at the door of the teahouse, and she would be ushered into the private room as soon as she came.As soon as he entered, Chuyang ran up and bumped into his leg: "Mom, eat candy."

Chu Yang held the malt candy in his hand, biting down the saliva, and it had already been delivered to her mouth.She didn't dislike it either, she opened her mouth and ate most of the malt candy, and said to Tu Yan, "He's still teething, it's not good to eat candy, didn't I say don't let him mess around. Look at the saliva. "

Tu Yan quickly clarified: "I didn't dare to give him food, I just took it for fun."

"You bit the tooth marks on it?" Lin Qingyun exposed his little lie, and glared at the father and son angrily: "In the future, if Chuyang grows up, if the teeth don't grow well, you will be responsible for it. Pamper him."

Tu Yan just lowered his head to drink tea and didn't speak, Chu Yang seemed to understand, and giggled while lying on the table.

About half an hour later, Bai Ling came in and said: "Princess, the people following are back."

Tu Yan looked over in puzzlement.

"Let's talk later." Lin Qingyun called people in.

The guard came in with his head down, saluted and said: "That maid has been following me since she left the cloth village, and the other party is like a maid from some other family. The two entered an alley one after the other and talked together. Look at their words and deeds. Although they know each other, they are not very familiar with each other, and they are a bit on guard against each other. After that, the maid of the Jia family went back to the Jia family, but the other maid went to a house in Muyu Street. I asked, and it was the princess of Chengjun. The dowry house was cleaned and resettled by Princess Chengjun some time ago, and all the neighbors saw it."

Zhen's?

Ordering the guards to retreat, there is no need to explain to Tu Yan at this time, she just sighed: "I didn't expect the third girl to have a relationship with the Zhen family in private, I'm afraid that the third girl would contact the third girl before the Zhen family deliberately leaked the gold to King Cheng. pass."

"Mr. Zhen promised the third girl a favor because she wanted the third girl to enter the county palace." Tu Yan easily guessed.

Lin Qingyun thought of Zhen Shunpin and Jia Yuanchun who were in the palace earlier, and looking at Zhen Shi and Tanchun, I am afraid that the ending would be a loss for both.

The Double Ninth Festival is a big festival, and the wives both inside and outside the palace participate in the banquet, and the princes and ministers climb up with the emperor.

Before the banquet started, Lin Qingjun invited the queen to greet her and stayed. Both Chu Yang and Brother Rui were there. Chu Yang was very interested in Brother Rui who was wrapped in swaddling clothes. He secretly poked Brother Rui's face with his finger, and once he didn't pay attention, he poked Brother Rui's face red, Brother Rui burst into tears, and Chu Yang was so frightened that he cried too. Their faces turned pale with fright.Afterwards, Yan Haosheng discussed the rules with Chuyang, and Lin Qingyun felt that he valued Chuyang's IQ too much, what could he understand before he was two years old?But Chuyang remembered, and never poked Brother Rui's face again.

Concubine Wu, Concubine Qi Shu, Concubine Rong, Concubine Li... the once favored nobleman of Zhou gave birth to a daughter, who was promoted to the position of concubine and named Li. The little princess died before she was one year old.

Several concubines and their daughters-in-law sat at the head of the queen, praised Brother Chuyang Rui, and talked about interesting stories about the grandchildren and grandchildren of the princes' mansions in various counties, which seemed to be harmonious.Of course, swords and swords in words are inevitable.As daughters-in-law, they can't get in the way of these people's wits. They sit together and talk. Shi sat alone, with a cold face, which was out of tune with today's atmosphere.

Suddenly, Princess Dingjun asked her: "I heard that the young prince of Chengjun's mansion has invited a powerful doctor, and the diagnosis and treatment have improved a bit. That doctor is Fan Shu, the genius doctor of Jiuhua Mountain. Was it invited by Princess Chunqin?"

Lin Qingjun replied with a slight smile: "Yes, Princess Chengjun came to me, and I am also a mother, so I feel the same way. Besides, our prince has a little friendship with Dr. Fan, and there is nothing to lose if we try it. After all, Dr. Fan is a benevolent doctor. Heart, it came without saying a word."

Princess Sujun curled her lips when she heard the words "doctor's benevolence". No one knew Fan Shu's stubborn temper, so he was talking nonsense with his eyes open.

Princess Dingjun smiled deeply: "After all, the seventh brother and sister are benevolent. If it were me, I really don't know if I can have the kindness of the seventh brother and sister. Then again, how could she have the nerve to ask for help?"

"It's just pity for the world's parents." Lin Qingyun understated it, but from the expression of Princess Dingjun, she already understood that Chengjun Palace has attracted the attention of all parties. Even if they don't know about the [-] gold now, they will find out soon.It might have been a lot of fun then.
