Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 101
The next day, Liu Yunxiang woke up a little late, and it took him a while to wake up in a daze, but his eyelids still felt heavy.

The usual spirit is getting worse and worse, and I can't get up anymore.

After calling Jinyan, it was Xiao Wu who came.

"Sanniang, you're awake." The little girl ran forward and looked at her worriedly, "Sanniang, you look so pale, are you sick?"

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Help me up."

Xiao Wu climbed onto the bed and helped Liu Yunxiang up with difficulty.

"Sanniang, I feel that your body is so stiff."

"Well, indeed, just walk around later."

After Xiao Wu helped her up, he ran outside to fetch a water basin and things for washing.

"Where is Jinyan?"

"Jinyan said to go to the east courtyard to have a look."

Liu Yunxiang nodded and let the little girl serve him.After washing up, I would like to smoke before coming back.

"The fifth girl is amazing, she can take care of others." Jin Yan boasted.

Xiao Wu looked proud, "I know a lot!"

"For example?" Liu Yunxiang asked while letting Jinyan change her clothes.

"I can embroider, write, play chess, and draw." Xiao Wu said, wagging his fingers.

"Then which one do you like best?"

Xiao Wu pouted, "I don't even like it."

"Oh?"

Xiao Wu hesitated for a moment, walked up to Liu Yunxiang, and whispered, "San Niang, can I study medicine?"

Liu Yunxiang was slightly taken aback, "Are you studying medicine?"

There are very few women who study medicine, especially girls from official families. After all, they are a minority who encounter such an adventure as Qu Moran.

But compared to poetry and books, it is indeed more practical, and with a skill, you can support yourself in the future.

"Do you really want to learn?"

Xiao Wu nodded hurriedly, but shook his head again, "Grandmother and mother will definitely not agree."

"You're by my side, asking what they agree to do."

"But I don't want Sanniang to be scolded by them."

Liu Yunxiang rubbed Xiao Wu's head, "San Niang is not afraid of them, so how about it, I will take you to meet someone in two days and see if she is willing to accept you as an apprentice."

Entrusting Xiaowu to Qu Moran, she can feel at ease.

When serving Liu Yunxiang for dinner, Jinyan couldn't help it.

"Girl, why don't you ask me what I found in the east courtyard?"

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Say what you want."

Jinyan pouted her lips, and said: "The whole family was very scared. They were all in the east courtyard last night. It is said that the old lady couldn't bear it and passed out. I only heard the news in the morning, saying that the person hadn't died yet. Breathless, seriously injured, it’s hard to say whether I can survive.”

Speaking of this, Jinyan glanced at Liu Yunxiang, "I thought that if he died, you would be clean."

Liu Yunxiang glared at Jinyan, "What does it have to do with me?"

Jinyan stuck out her tongue, and said again: "The second master's assassination of Yan Mu, the whole capital knows, and the streets and alleys are talking about it. Although they don't know the conflict between the two, they all say that he deserved what he deserved."

"How could the streets and alleys know what happened late last night?"

"I don't know, but he will get married tomorrow, and now he is still unconscious, I'm afraid..."

The whole Hou Mansion was trembling all day long, but they didn't wait for the emperor to ask him to blame or the government to arrest him, gradually everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"I think the emperor asked someone to find out why the second child killed Yan Mu. Such a shameful humiliation, which man can bear it. Maybe he also thought that Yan Mu deserved to die and deliberately ignored it." The old lady said forgivingly.

It's just that when she said this, Xie Zi'an's face turned ugly.

He gritted his teeth, "No man can bear it, and so do I, so Liu Yunxiang will be divorced."

The old lady snorted coldly, "When the traitor is dead, she has nothing to rely on, so she will rest, but she will have to suffer enough."

Xie Zian pursed his lips, "Then listen to mother."

As soon as the mother and son finished speaking, a eunuch came to Dongchang, greeted him with a smile, and then said: "Our Dugong has a lot of sons, but the one who loves me the most is Master Qi."

As soon as these words came out, the mother and son trembled non-stop.

The eunuch was still smiling, and continued: "Has the mansion prepared a white flag?"

The old lady wiped off her sweat, "This..."

"When the Yan Mansion is up, your mansion will be up too, but you need to prepare more, after all, there are quite a lot of people in your mansion."

As soon as these words came out, the old lady collapsed on the ground in fright.

"For the current plan, it's better to burn more incense, and ask the Buddha to bless our seventh master to be fine." The eunuch finished with a smile, and looked around again: "By the way, where is the third lady in the house?"

Xie Zi'an swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said to the servant next to him, "Quick, come find the third lady."

"No need, I'm just greeting the third lady on behalf of our governor, and please pass it on to the third master."

After the eunuch left, Xie Zi'an wiped off his cold sweat, and turned to look at the old lady: "Liu Yunxiang can't rest, she is our family's life-saving talisman."

The old lady's face was pale, and the corners of her mouth trembled slightly, "Yes, I can't rest, I didn't expect Shangguan Xu to support her."

Seeing the second wife, Mrs. Xue sitting at the side in a daze, as if the matter had nothing to do with her, she was so angry that she hit her with a cane, "You are a dead star, you caused all the trouble!"

The second lady suddenly smiled, looked up at the old lady and asked: "Now the whole capital knows that I have been to Lanyuan, and my natal family's Uncle Zhongyong will also know, how will I behave in the future?"

"When you came back from Lanyuan, you should have hanged yourself, so as to preserve the reputation of you and the Hou Mansion!"

"Haha, let me die!" Xue Shi laughed even louder, pointing at the old lady and Xie Zixuan who was bored behind, "You all want me to die!"

"Okay, don't go crazy, don't you like to burn incense and worship Buddha, now go to the small Buddhist hall to pray for Yan Mu, and ask the Buddha to protect him from death."

Xue Shi walked around the hall with a smile, and saw the faces of these people in the Hou Mansion clearly, then she stopped in the middle and shouted: "You are all wrong, Yan Mu never touched me!"

Xie Zixuan frowned, "If he never touched you, why didn't you defend yourself?"

Xue Shi tilted her head, with a hint of madness in her expression, she fixedly looked at Xie Zixuan and said, "I'd rather be him!"

"What do you mean?"

"That night it was a beggar with pus all over his face, so disgusting, so dirty, so smelly, he touched me!" Xue laughed.
