Chapter 114 No one can be easy

"What?" Tao Ling was taken aback.

"What you said to Mr. Gu just now." Tao Yao reminded.

Tao Ling was startled, lowered her head, twisted the handkerchief in her hand and said, "I, I really don't deserve it."

Tao Yao wanted to say something, but Tao Ling hurriedly got up and said, "Their hot water should be ready, I'll take a bath first."

Tao Yao nodded, "Okay."

Tao Ling quickly went to the clean room.

Tao Yao knew that she was afraid that she hadn't passed that hurdle yet.

But when something like that happens, no one can take it easy.

In addition, the second sister is a well-behaved lady in the boudoir. Although the other party did not succeed, the second sister must not mind.

She sighed, and only hoped that the second sister would be stronger and forget about that incident.

In the clean room.

Tao Lingping retreated from the serving maid, took off her dress, and stepped directly into the tub.

She grabbed the cotton towel and scrubbed her skin vigorously.

Especially on the neck, she rubbed it red within a short while.

The tears she had held back for a long time could no longer be held back, and big ones rolled down into the hot water.

She cried silently, which made people feel distressed.

Seeing that she hadn't come out after washing for a long time, Tao Yao went over and knocked on the door, and said briskly, "Second Sister, have you finished washing? Why don't you come out? Could it be that you fell asleep? If you don't come out, I'm going in."

After a while, Tao Ling's voice came from inside, "I'll be right out."

Tao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, but stood by the door and did not leave.

Not long after, Tao Ling came out, she didn't know if she had soaked in hot water for too long, her face was very red.

When she saw that she was walking in a vain manner, Tao Yao held her arm worriedly, "Second Sister, is there something wrong with you?"

Tao Ling shook her head, "I'm just a little dizzy, maybe I soaked for too long."

When Tao Yao heard this, she stretched out her hand to touch her forehead worriedly, but found that her forehead was very hot.

"Second Sister, you have a fever." She said something very anxious, then helped Tao Ling to the bed, and sent someone to call for a doctor.

Soon Tao Tian and Li Shi were alarmed and came to see Tao Ling.

"Why did you have a fever?" Sitting on the edge of the bed, Mrs. Li touched Tao Ling's forehead with a worried look on her face.

Tao Ling forced a smile and said, "Maybe it's raining today, mother don't need to worry."

Not long after, the doctor arrived, took Tao Ling's pulse and prescribed medicine.

After Tao Ling drank the medicine, she lay down and fell asleep.

Mrs. Li held Tao Yao's hand and said, "Lingling has nothing to do here, I will take care of her here, you haven't been back for a long time, go and accompany your father."

Seeing that Tao Ling had already fallen asleep, Tao Yao stayed by herself, so she couldn't do anything else.

Looking at the kind Li Shi, she hesitated for a moment, but finally did not tell her what happened in the backyard of Yipin Building during the day.

She knew Tao Ling well, and she didn't want her family members to worry after they knew about it.

She nodded, "OK."

……

Besides, when Gu Changqing sent Lu Hao back to Duke Lu's mansion, Lu Jiuyuan happened to be back too.

After getting off the carriage, Gu Changqing said: "Sister-in-law Madam said that she hasn't lived in Tao's house for a long time, and she will stay overnight at Tao's house tonight."

"Got it." Lu Jiuyuan nodded.

Lu Hao pulled his sleeve and said, "Uncle Jiu, has Heng'er gone back?"

"Well, I'm back." Lu Jiuyuan nodded.

Hearing this, Lu Hao sighed and said, "Suddenly I feel a little uncomfortable."

Gu Changqing said with a smile: "Didn't you say that you wish he could go back quickly?"

Lu Hao said with a frustrated face: "I don't know when I will see Heng'er again?"

"Don't worry, we will definitely meet again, maybe Heng'er will come to play with you tomorrow." Gu Changqing touched his head reassuringly, then looked at Lu Jiuyuan, "Play a few games of chess?"

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at him, nodded, "Yes."

When Lu Hao heard that they were going to play chess, he immediately ran away without interest.

Gu Changqing followed Lu Jiuyuan to the study.

"What can I gain today?" Lu Jiuyuan put down a chess piece and asked.

Gu Changqing was a little frustrated, "I thought I had made a step forward, but in the end I went back to the original point."

"You want to give up?" Lu Jiuyuan glanced at him.

"Of course not." Gu Changqing immediately shook his head, "After so many years, I finally met a nice girl, how could I back down?

Don't worry, I will definitely be a brother-in-law with you. "

The corners of Lu Jiuyuan's eyes twitched, "Don't be too confident."

"Don't talk about me, let's talk about the little prince Heng'er, what's going on?" Gu Changqing asked seriously.

Lu Jiuyuan said lightly: "I only found out today that the emperor has raised a woman outside the palace, and that child has been raised outside the palace."

Gu Changqing was a little startled, and immediately laughed, "Why did the emperor do this?"

The emperor is the ruler of the world, no one dares to say anything more about how many women he wants, but the emperor has learned from ordinary men and keeps his wife outside, which is really incomprehensible.

The point is, that woman should be very popular with the emperor, otherwise the emperor would not be able to pamper the child that much.

"Maybe... it's to protect that woman." Lu Jiuyuan frowned.

Gu Changqing shook his head, "That's interesting, the princes fought fiercely, and in the end, they may be defeated by a yellow-mouthed kid.

By the way, how did that child just happen to appear outside your house by such a coincidence? "

Lu Jiuyuan paused for a while, and immediately said without hesitation, "This matter, of course, cannot be accidental."

"You mean, all of this was arranged by someone with a heart?" Gu Changqing was taken aback.

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at him, "Otherwise what do you think?"

Gu Changqing was stunned, his Bai Zi had been surrounded.

He sighed, "I lost again."

"Isn't this normal?" Lu Jiuyuan said nonchalantly.

Gu Changqing: "..."

He simply stretched out his hand to mess up the chessboard, and asked with interest: "What's the purpose of the person behind the scenes? If it was done on purpose, could it be that he wanted the little prince Heng'er to approach you so that he could win you over and let you support Heng'er?" The little prince?"

Lu Jiuyuan didn't speak.

Gu Changqing said to himself: "After all, you are now the object of all the princes vying to curry favor with each other, but you have not expressed your position all the time, which has provoked constant actions from all parties.

But who is the person behind this little prince? "

After he finished speaking, he exchanged a glance with Lu Jiuyuan, "Could it be...the emperor?"

Lu Jiuyuan shook his head, "It can't be the emperor."

"That is……"

"You should know in a few days." Lu Jiuyuan said.

Royal Palace.

After the emperor brought Heng'er back, he immediately sent someone to pick up Rongniang into the palace.

The moment Rongniang came out of the sedan chair, the palace people were all stunned.

so beautiful……

Ignoring the gazes cast by others, she hurried into the emperor's bedroom.

The moment she saw Heng'er, her tears "splatted" and she rushed forward, hugging him tightly in her arms.

"Heng'er..."

Heng'er was eating, when she was hugged in her arms suddenly, she almost couldn't breathe, "Mother, mother..."

Seeing that his face was blushing, the emperor hurriedly supported Rong Niang's shoulders, and persuaded in a gentle voice: "I know you are excited, but Heng'er is going to be out of breath."

Surprised, Rong Niang hurriedly let go of Heng'er, and looked him up and down.

Seeing that he was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief, "You child, how you ran around that day made me worry..."

Heng'er took the pastry, and fed it to her mouth flatteringly, "Heng'er knew I was wrong, mother forgive me..."
