Splendid spring returns

Chapter 88 The Head of the Household

Xin Nianchou said: "That's what I said too. But my sister really has no appetite. I asked Lizhi today and said that I have been forced to eat something for the past two days, and my stomach hurts badly. Since it hurts, it must be due to illness. How can the imperial physician Why can't we diagnose it?"

Aunt Gu also said worriedly: "Who says it's not. If this goes on like this, I don't think the princess wants to live anymore. When she talks to us today, she just says that life is better than death."

Gu Changting sighed: "Feng Rong has been weak and sick since she was a child. In her words, she took medicine when she knew how to eat. After so many years, she was actually a person who was cultivated by medicine. As the saying goes, medicine is three parts poisonous. Her symptoms, How do you know that the residual poison left in the body has not exploded for more than ten years? Tomorrow, I will go to the imperial hospital in person and invite two imperial physicians who are best at detoxification to come and have a look."

Xin Nian's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "This is also a direction, it's you, after all, you are walking outside and know some stories about the world, so I never thought about poisoning. If that's the case, go invite me immediately after you have eaten." , an hour earlier is fine, what if something delays tomorrow?"

Gu Changting said helplessly: "I have just returned to Beijing, and I haven't reported to the emperor yet. I thought I would come back to see my mother and your mothers. I didn't expect to hear about Liu Zai Yaya when I first entered the mansion. After all How did you do it? How did Haoduanduan fall into the water? What about the servants around him? Is there no one following?"

"Don't worry, listen to me slowly."

Xin Nian recounted the matter, and finally said: "Chun Yu made an unintentional mistake, she was tricked by someone, if so, I also fined her three months' monthly money, those women in the garden, I intend to kill the chickens to scare the monkeys, so They were all thrown to Zhuangzi, and then the mansion bought a batch of victims who fled to Beijing from Ren Yazi. Although they looked uneven, I thought the servants in the garden were mainly capable, and these people did the most tiring farm work. It's nothing to worry about, not to mention the work in the garden. As for those exotic flowers and plants, they are naturally taken care of by gardeners, which has nothing to do with them."

Gu Changting nodded slowly.Here, Aunt Gu smiled and said: "It is said that the clothes are not as good as the new ones and the old ones. Why do I feel that these newcomers are much easier to use than the old ones? They are all kind and friendly. They are not very eloquent, but they are warm-hearted and easy-going. Cattail asked them to do something, and they didn't shirk at all, their hands and feet are very quick."

Gu Changting said with a smile: "This is our master's negligence. Thinking about those slaves, who have been in this mansion for many years, they are intertwined with each other. How can there be no reason for it? If they gain some more power, they will be even more domineering and domineering. Wait for the master I don’t even pay attention to it, and it’s time to purge a group of people and give others a wake-up call.”

"My lord is right. Anyway, I feel that after the change of people, the atmosphere in the garden has changed. It's just that, Sister Xin has offended many people. When someone tells the truth in front of you, you You have to make the decision for Sister Xin."

"Hehe, it's obvious that you are good sisters. Am I the kind of person who doesn't know right from wrong?"

Gu Changting laughed.While talking, someone came from the kitchen and asked if the meal was ready, and the second young master Gu Yuchen also came, and several people came to the dining room to sit down.Aunt Qin is weak, so the two of them don't come here for dinner recently.

Xin Nian saw a bowl of stewed ham with elbows on the table, tasted it, and found it soft and rotten, so she said to Xinghua: "There are a lot of meat dishes on the table, the third girl likes this the most, you take it to her and Aunt Qin Eat. That's enough for us."

Xinghua agreed "yes", but didn't move her footsteps. She secretly glanced at Gu Changting's face, and saw him say indifferently: "Didn't you hear what my aunt said? Why don't you follow suit?"

"Yes."

Only then did Xinghua come forward, put a large bowl of ham into the food box, and carried it away.Here, Xin Nian gave Gu Changting a blank look, and said leisurely: "My lord is so majestic, Xinghua has been with me for so many years, and now he wants to look at you, what's the reason?"

Gu Changting shrugged: "Are you asking me? That's your girl, why don't you ask her? If you have time, you want to run on me, whoever I provoke."

Gu Changting was a free and unrestrained person, and there was no rule of eating or drinking at the dinner table. Several people chatted and laughed after lunch, and Gu Changting was about to enter the palace, so he left in a hurry, and then Aunt Gu also took Gu Yuchen to leave.

Chun Yu didn't ask Xin Nian until there was no one in the room, "Why didn't Auntie tell the lord? It's obvious that our young master and girl fell into the water and was murdered. If you don't tell me, when grandma sues, it will be a cruel act of ours."

Xin Nian glanced at her, and said with a smile: "You think the prince is you, and there is only one string in his mind? I just need to tell him the whole thing, and you think there are doubts in it that he can't think of? It depends on whether he thinks about it or not."

Chun Yu blinked her eyes twice: "Auntie, what do you mean? The prince's heart is actually like a mirror?"

"Almost." Xin Nian nodded: "Some things, I can't let me say, otherwise it will be superfluous and not beautiful."

"I understand." Chun Yu nodded: "It's just Auntie, what if the master is so confused and lets things go?"

Xin Nian blinked her eyes twice, shook her head and said: "He cares so much about Liu Zai Yaya, he won't let this matter go by in a muddle.

"Ah? Side concubine?" Chun Ye was stunned: "Grandma has been showing off for a long time. I heard that the servants in their yard secretly called side concubine empress. Side concubine? I can't explain it to the concubine."

Xin Nian snorted coldly: "No way? Why not? She just lost her position as a side concubine, but Liu Zai and Yaya almost lost their lives. Grounded? How can I dispel the hatred in my heart?"

Chun Yu whispered: "Then... what if the Lord... just wants to pretend to be confused and ask grandma to be a side concubine?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw the master jumping up against the table, gritted his teeth and said: "He really doesn't even have this kind of affection, so I want to have a good talk with him."

"Uh……"

Chun Yu stared at her toes, groaning and moaning like a mosquito, and said, "Didn't that mean...some things, what Auntie said would be superfluous, but not beautiful?"

Xin Nian: ...

******************
"Yesterday, when the prince came back, he first went to Qingliangyuan. Later, he met Aunt Xin on the way. For some reason, he changed his mind and went to Wangfei's place. He had lunch at Qingliangyuan at noon, entered the palace in the afternoon, and returned in the evening. Then I went to pay my respects to the concubine, and after dinner at the concubine's place, I went to the concubine again..."

Guizhi didn't wait for the report to finish, and saw Liao sitting up from the couch, her willow eyebrows stood upright, and said indignantly: "What do you mean? I've gone to see it once, and it's not enough? I have to go tonight? Did you spend the night there?"

"Yes, I entered Wangfei's courtyard and never came out again. I heard that two imperial doctors were invited..."
