After retiring, I saved the crazy prince

Chapter 2 Dreams come true
"Okay, it's getting late, so my brother won't disturb my sister's rest. Although my sister's engagement with Lu Langjun is still half a year away, it's time for my sister to start preparing the wedding dress. If my sister still needs anything, just come and tell my brother. As for The dowry left by A Niang to my younger sister, my younger sister should not give it all to Liuxiangyuan. Brother's affairs are left to my elder brother. In the future when my younger sister marries into the General Zhen Guo's mansion, she will use money everywhere, and she needs to leave some money for her. You have a good body, don't let the servants in General Zhen Guo's mansion look down on your sister."

Qi Jiuzhu's father, Qi Shang, was a member of General Zhen Guo's subordinates. During the Eastern Expedition in the early years, he blocked an arrow for General Zhen Guo and lost a leg. The marriage contract between her and Lu Mingtan was broken.

The step-sister Qi Weiwei was quite jealous of this marriage, and every time she saw her, she would try her best to ridicule her, but Chen Yao's mother and daughter did not dare to make a move on this marriage, because the Qi family could not offend the general Zhen Guo's mansion.

Although Chen Yao's mother and daughter were making trouble behind their backs, they didn't dare to embarrass her too much because of this marriage. Qi Jiuzhu could still live a peaceful life in the Yangui courtyard for a few days.

Maybe the fire was just a coincidence, maybe just like what her brother said, she just had this dream because she was thinking too much and worried about the marriage.

"My younger sister respectfully obeys my elder brother's orders."

"Okay, brother has to be on duty tonight, and sister should go to bed earlier."

The fire in Zuixianfang burned for more than half an hour, but fortunately Jin Wuwei came to put out the fire in time, the fire burned several rooms, lost some property in the workshop, and no one was injured.

The fire alarmed Jingzhao Mansion and Dali Temple. After investigating Zuixianfang last night, they found that the fire was related to a group of Jiangyang thieves. After the fire was extinguished, the steward of Zuixianfang counted the items in the workshop, and found that there were indeed only a few pieces of gold, silver, jade and some cash lost.

The governor of Jingzhao and the Dali Temple posted the portraits of these thieves everywhere in the city, and arrested all the thieves that night.

Because of the fire in Zuixianfang, Qi Jiuzhu thought about that dream all night and didn't sleep well. The next morning, Steward Wang came to Yangui Hospital and handed her a letter.

Qi Jiuzhu unfolded the letterhead, and wrote in the letter: If you want to know about Lu Mingtan raising a concubine, please meet Mrs. Qi at Lanji Temple.

When Qi Jiuzhu saw the letter, he felt a thunderbolt in the blue sky and white day. Could it be that the dream was all real?
Could it be that Lu Mingtan did raise an outer room, and after she married Lu Mingtan, she was framed and killed the outer room's child, and finally died in the snow.

The chill from the bottom of her heart surged up again, she only felt icy cold all over her body, as if falling into an ice cellar.

The letter paper was also crumpled up.

"Does Steward Wang know the person who delivered the letter?"

Steward Wang shook his head and said: "As soon as I opened the door of the mansion today, a servant named Li San sent this letter. The servant asked him who sent the letter to the lady, but Li San refused to say, only the lady. You will understand after reading this letter."

Lu Mingtan is the son of the eldest princess and General Zhen Guo. She is just the daughter of a general under General Zhen Guo. The family backgrounds of the two families are far apart. Neither the eldest princess nor Lu Mingtan is satisfied with this marriage. Then he said that he didn't want to get married.

Although Lu Mingtan was unwilling, he did not dare to disobey his father, and the Lu family did not divorce, and Lu Zhun personally brought Lu Mingtan to hire him last month.

She heard the conversation between her father and Lu Mingtan from behind the screen. Lu Mingtan didn't look like a dude, and now he is studying in the Imperial College. He is the eldest son of the Lu family, so he can naturally inherit the title, but he left this shortcut, Preparing to participate in the Spring Festival next year, it can be seen that he is also very motivated.

Qi Jiuzhu originally planned to marry into the Lu family. She didn't want to be able to be on par with Lu Mingtan. The husband and wife are loving, but she wanted to get along with him in harmony and respect each other as guests.

But if it was true as in the dream, she would be rejected by her husband when she married into the General Zhen's residence, embarrassed and punished by her mother-in-law, and finally lost her life in vain.

She clenched the handkerchief tightly, her face was pale, and a layer of cold sweat oozed from her forehead.If it was true as said in the letter, she would definitely go to Lanji Temple to find out. If Lu Mingtan really had a concubine, she would have to make early preparations and find a way to divorce as soon as possible.

"My lady, it's time to drink the medicine."

Chen Xiang pushed the door and entered, put the decoction in her hand on the table in front of Qi Jiuzhu, walked forward, put the back of her hand lightly on her forehead, and said with a smile: "My lady's fever has subsided, after drinking this bowl of decoction, If you sweat under the quilt again, you should be fine."

"Dress up for me, let's go to Lanji Temple."

"But it's still raining outside, my lady hasn't recovered from the cold, so don't let the wind blow and rain again."

Qi Jiuzhu didn't want to wait any longer, she just wanted to go to Lanji Temple to find out the truth, and then think of a countermeasure. She had a premonition that the dream might be true.

Thinking of this, her face turned pale again.

She took the medicine bowl, drank the decoction in the bowl, frowned and said sharply: "I'm fine now. And I'm leaving the house today, don't tell others."

Chen Xiang couldn't help it, she took the medicine bowl, and helped Qi Jiuzhu to stand up and sit in front of the mirror. The beautiful face in the mirror was a little sickly pale, and the face without makeup was like a camellia in the mountains surrounded by mist.

A face with rouge and lip gloss is beautiful, although it is not extremely beautiful, but a girl's slightly round face is like a flower in bud, which makes people look forward to the day when it blooms and amazes everyone.

……

An hour later, Qi Jiuzhu sat on the carriage leaving the house with heavy thoughts. Because she was nervous and uneasy, her heart was pounding. She clutched the corner of her skirt tightly, trying her best to calm down and think calmly.

In fact, she had some doubts about the letter. After all, the family of the General Zhen Guo was very strict, and the eldest princess had only one son, Lu Mingtan, so she definitely wouldn't let him follow the example of those dudes in Chang'an City to raise some kind of concubine.

But because of that dream, Qi Jiuzhu specifically asked his elder brother where Lu Mingtan would go on weekdays and what he liked.

She found out that Lu Mingtan didn't socialize much on weekdays, but occasionally went to the Shusi Restaurant to drink and chant poems with a few friends. Because the eldest princess was not feeling well recently, he went to Lanji Temple to pray for his mother on the first and fifteenth of every month.

Lanji Temple was also mentioned in the letter, so it was no coincidence. She was suspicious, so she wanted to go to Lanji Temple to find out.

Moreover, the handwriting on the letter paper is beautiful, it should be written by a woman, and now she has guessed in her heart that the matter of Lu Mingtan raising a concubine is probably true.

When she goes to Lanji Temple, she'd better catch Lu Mingtan's handle and divorce her in one fell swoop.
