Chapter 43 Duplicity
Ever since Shen Zhuoxi was taken away, Grandma Ju had been standing guard at the door. She finally waited for her to come back and quickly asked about the situation.
"Yu Qinglian complained, but I laughed at her." Shen Zhuoxi didn't take it seriously at all: "She wants to save face and wants me to be punished. She has taken all the benefits, and that's not okay."
"It has to be Miss." Hui Zhi couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said: "You didn't see the expression on the eldest lady's face. At first, relying on the Grand Master's presence, you wanted the eldest lady to apologize."
"But I didn't expect that the eldest lady was not even afraid of the grand master, and she directly attacked him. The eldest lady looked like she had been constipated for a long time, especially when the young lady asked the question at the end."
Huizhi said, imitating Shen Zhuoxi, and said seriously: "'I'll call you my aunt, do you dare to agree to it?'" In one sentence, the eldest lady almost suffered internal injuries."
"I kept saying that I didn't dare, so I could only hide in the Grand Master's arms and pretend to be dead. Hahahaha, I feel happy thinking about that. The eldest lady is so powerful and domineering!"
Aunt Ju didn't see that scene and regretted it extremely: "If I had known earlier, I should have followed and had a look. Over the years, the eldest lady has pretended to be a good person and allowed others to bully the young lady."
"Finally, someone can let her feel it for once, and it's considered revenge."
"What's going on here? Don't worry, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future." Huizhi patted Grandma Ju's hand and said, "You go down and have a rest. I will serve you."
Just thinking about Yu Qinglian's deflated appearance, Grandma Ju felt so excited that she couldn't sleep. She said, "I'd better keep a vigil as a servant. I can't sleep anymore."
"Stop keeping watch." Shen Zhuoxi interrupted the two people's excuses and said, "It's already dark. I'll go to bed after washing up. There's no need to keep a watch."
It had been sunny for several dozen days. In the latter half of the night, the moonlight was covered by thick dark clouds, and there was a vague tendency of rain.
The wind has also become cooler, and it is no longer as hot as before.
Jing Muling couldn't sleep, so she put on some clothes and stood in front of the window to enjoy the breeze.
Zhengyang was waiting at the side and guessed that he couldn't sleep because of Shen Zhuoxi, so he boldly advised: "Sir, if you are worried about the second lady, go and see her as Yu Mu."
"How can I not be concerned about her?" Jing Muling denied: "This little heartless guy announced his recovery in the name of Prince Yu's palace asking a doctor to treat her."
"Now the whole Shengdu is talking about this matter. Fortunately for her, even the Queen Mother went there, but she forgot about my grace. She kept saying that she wanted to help me cure my eye disease, but she disappeared."
Even though he denied it, the resentment in his words was obvious, just like a resentful woman who has a taste for food.
Zhengyang was stunned and said with a sneer: "You also said that the second lady's recovery is being discussed. She must be very busy. It will take a long time to clean up the mess in the Grand Master's Mansion."
"I guess she hasn't gotten out yet, but she is not free. You are free recently. How about going to the Grand Master's Mansion tomorrow?"
"That's all. Going to see her in the Grand Master's Mansion as the king will bring her more trouble." Jing Muling casually closed the window and said, "Find out the clothes. I will go to the Taishi Mansion to see her." Master’s Mansion.”
Shen Zhuoxi was drowsily asleep and heard faint movement near the window.
"Who is it?" She always didn't like others to disturb her sleep, and she was a little impatient.
"Me." Jing Muling, who was using the identity of Yu Mu, deliberately lowered her voice, completely different from usual, and whispered outside the window: "Open the window."
Shen Zhuoxi realized it was him and then he woke up: "Why are you here?"
As he spoke, he put on his clothes and went to open the window.
There was no moonlight outside the house, and it was pitch black. Fortunately, there was a night light hanging outside the door, which could shine in through the doors and windows.
Yu Mu neatly turned over and came in, complaining: "You don't need me, so you won't welcome me?"
"You are a man and I am a woman, how can we always meet each other in the middle of the night?" Shen Zhuoxi yawned and said, "It's so late, is there anything important?"
"Can't you come if you have nothing to do?" There was a sourness in Yu Mu's words that he didn't notice: "What happened to the Grand Master's Mansion that tripped you up? Once you've recovered, you should go out and wander around and make up for what you have been missing for more than ten years."
"How can the Grand Master's Mansion trap me? It's just because the old grudge between mother and I has not been avenged." Shen Zhuoxi sighed: "The Grand Master's Mansion, so big, looks so glamorous, but in fact it is rotten."
"Besides, you need money to go out and wander around. I only have seven or eighty taels of silver a month. What can I do?"
"You don't want the money I gave you." Yu Mu changed the subject and said, "Yi Antang is not giving it to you. You have good medical skills, so you can make money there."
"I plan to start from Yi'antang." Shen Zhuoxi frowned slightly and said, "However, please ask King Yu to give it to me in his name. There is no movement from him, and I can't urge you."
"For the time being, we can only do it secretly. If we can't do it openly, many things won't be done."
Yu Mu's brows raised under his mask: "What is King Yu's identity? If he doesn't take the initiative to look for you, you won't look for him either?"
Shen Zhuoxi shook his head and said, "I don't really want to meet him."
Yu Mu's face changed slightly, and he suppressed the disappointment in his heart and said: "Why, didn't he help you find a doctor? As far as I know, he has never been so kind to anyone, you are an exception."
"King Yu is indeed very good." Shen Zhuoxi hesitated for a moment, but said truthfully: "It's my fault. Although he can't see, those eyes always give me a sense of oppression."
"I can't see through him, and I don't like the feeling of being out of my control."
It turned out to be the case.
Yu Mu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Shen Zhuoxi hated him!
He thought for a while and said: "King Yu's eyes are like that. I have known him for many years and I have the same feeling. Your foundation is not stable now. If you can get King Yu to help you, it will be much easier in the future."
"The eldest lady in your house is from the Earl's Palace. Although she is a concubine, the Earl's Palace has been declining over the years, all because of the Taishi Palace and the Yu family's in-laws."
"You want to touch the Yu family, but the head of the Earl's mansion won't agree."
It would indeed be very difficult to influence several families with related interests by oneself.
Shen Zhuoxi understood this and said, "I owe King Yu a favor regarding the doctor. I will go to Prince Yu's Mansion tomorrow to see his eyes. As long as his eyeballs are not broken, I can cure them."
Yu Mu's eyebrows were slightly curved, with an obvious smile: "Okay, you go to bed early, I'll leave first."
Shen Zhuoxi frowned, a little speechless: "??? Is this why you came here?"
"No." Yu Mu quickly denied it and said, "I was going to ask you about Yi'antang, and I mentioned King Yu by the way, so I made an extra comment."
"Oh." Shen Zhuoxi yawned again, rubbed his eyes and said, "Let's go. Don't climb on my wall in the middle of the night. If you need anything, call Huizhi."
"Okay." Yu Mu agreed.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard Shen Zhuoxi say: "A very beautiful woman came from Yi'an Hall. I rescued her accidentally. Her name is Mu Yu."
Yu Mu waited quietly for his next sentence. He didn't hear it for a long time and asked suspiciously: "Then what?"
"You have been single for many years and she is as beautiful as a flower. What do you think?" Shen Zhuoxi leaned against the window and said, "Yu Mu, Mu Yu, even their names are full of tacit understanding. It is simply a marriage given by God."
The corner of Yu Mu's mouth twitched - what about Yu Mu and Mu Yu? He is Jing Muling, and that Mu Yu is the real Yu Mu!
