The Prime Minister's Wife

Chapter 43

After sending Lin Hui away, she said to Manzhu indifferently: "Let someone rob the jade chessboard and spread the news about my wife's serious injury." She wants to know who is the biggest beneficiary of this matter.

"What, you said that the jade chessboard was robbed, and that mute was seriously injured, and his life and death are unknown."

In Lingxiao Palace, Feng Yiyuan shouted in surprise, and then she was happy again. After being locked in the palace for so many days, she finally waited for a good news, but the next moment, her complexion immediately sank again.

Thin feelings, this name that she hates so much, why is she still alive?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help complaining about those thieves who robbed everything and were so stupid as to leave him alive, otherwise the mute would be dead, but the current situation is enough for her to be troublesome.

After the news that the jade chessboard was stolen spread, there were different opinions. There are two most acceptable theories. One is that the fourth prince was reluctant to part with the chessboard and secretly sent someone to snatch it back; , The thief deliberately shouted "Catch the thief", but in fact the jade chessboard is still in Zuoxiang's mansion.However, the two statements only talk about the situation on that day, and they can be broken as soon as they are attacked, and they cannot stand the test of facts at all.

Thinking of Boqing's arrogant mocking of herself that day, Feng Yiyuan has been unable to calm down for the past few days. Now that she encounters this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, she has to find a way to make that dead dumb confess as soon as possible. After thinking about it, she said: "Come on Please, bring up Aunt Yao." Now the queen mother ignores her, but at the critical moment, it is this old woman who can say a few words.

In Mu's mansion, because the weather is getting colder, Boqing no longer goes to the garden, and is afraid of the cold, covered with a thick blanket of white fox fur, sitting on a soft couch in front of the window, drinking the concoction sent by Shangguanluo in one gulp, reminiscing With bitterness in his mouth, he said: "Manzhu, the part of the road where the accident happened is the closest to the mansion of the lord in the court." It was not dark at that time, if you want to be unnoticed, do everything, unless there is someone nearby to respond.

Manzhu thought for a moment, then replied: "Go back to Ma'am, it's Taiwei's Mansion."

Taiwei's Mansion, the Queen's natal family!
Boqing's lips curled up, and she smiled coldly, how could she forget such important information, and suddenly remembered the scene of Feng Yunxiao dragging Feng Yiyuan away on the day of the birthday banquet, and she understood somewhat in her heart.

Feng Yunxiao wanted to take advantage of the fact that the jade chessboard was robbed to divert the emperor's attention from the incident in the Wumeng Mountains. What a third prince, he really shot himself in the foot this time, and said with a cold face: "Manzhu, let people Spread the news that Wuyue Kingdom has mastered the refining and forging of ironware, remember, the sooner the better." She wanted to cover up, and she would not give them a chance.

Boqing looked at the flowers in the garden with a contemplative expression. In late autumn and September, they were as red as blood, and the fragrance was stronger than usual. Suddenly, there was a sound of brisk footsteps approaching from far away, breaking the silence of the Tianhuayuan.

Before seeing anyone, I heard Mu Zhaoyue's carefree voice from a distance, calling: "Little sister-in-law, the eighth princess has sent someone to visit you, why don't you hurry up and come out to meet you."

Feng Yiyuan, at this juncture, she sent someone to visit her, she couldn't help being stunned for a moment, she was not afraid of others talking about her right and wrong behind her back, just as she was lost in thought, Mu Zhaoyue had already walked in from the outside, and the people who were with her There was even Tao Ran.

Seeing that there was only one person in the room, Mu Zhaoyue couldn't help complaining: "Where is your maid, she disappeared again for no reason, I will help you teach them a good lesson another day."

Boqing smiled at Tao Ran as a greeting, and when she was about to sit up, a slim figure walked in quickly, held her arm and said softly, "Ma'am, servant help you up."

His fickle eyes fell on the hand that was supporting him, which was also wrapped in gauze, and he couldn't help raising his head. Lianyi was looking at her with a shy smile, knowing that she had walked out, nodded silently, and let her support her Standing up by himself, he changed into the clothes for meeting guests, and then said: "Let's go, I will accept the princess's reward in the front hall."

In the front hall, Mu Zhaoyue looked at Bo Qing in surprise, and said puzzledly: "Sister-in-law, it's just a reward from the princess, and you're still hurting yourself, so why bother to make a trip to receive the reward in the Tianhuayuan. "

"Yes, Mrs. Zuo Xiang, you are injured, and the eighth princess should not be able to find fault with you." Tao Ran also spoke to dissuade her, she also knew that the eighth princess was always targeting fickleness, but such a trivial matter should not be the eighth princess Make an excuse.

Boqing shook her head, she had her own plan, her lips moved slightly, and she heard four words floating out from Lianyi's mouth: "Courtesy cannot be discarded!"

Boqing insisted on this, Mu Zhaoyue and Tao Ran had no choice but to look at each other helplessly, so they had to ask the gift giver to wait in the front hall first, while they walked slowly behind Boqing.

From the Tianhuayuan to the front hall, it only takes less than three quarters of an hour to take the soft sedan chair in the mansion, but because of the injury on Baoqing's body, he walked very slowly along the way. Every time Mu Zhaoyue wanted to urge her, Ripple would She would be the first to yell at her, thinking that the bearer walked too fast and bumped her master, so Mu Zhaoyue had no choice but to refrain from speaking.

After walking for more than half an hour in a short distance, the three of them came to the front hall, which made Mu Zhaoyue and Tao Ran wonder why this little girl has become so delicate.

Boqing walked into the hall holding Lianyi's hand, and saw an elderly court lady with two young maids and two young eunuchs sitting in the front hall. Seeing her appear, the court lady immediately led everyone to meet her. Front said: "This servant has seen Mrs. Zuo Xiang, and under the order of the eighth princess, she sent her the holy medicine for healing and the medicinal materials for her body. I wish my wife a speedy recovery."

Boqing turned around and gave a little blessing to the outside of the hall door, thanking the princess and the Tian family for the reward, and then gave Mu Zhaoming a wink, asking her to entertain her.

Mu Zhaoyue hated Feng Yiyuan to the extreme, because she couldn't speak because of her fickleness, she had to squeeze out a smile and said, "This aunt has a very face, I don't know how to call her?"

"Miss Hui Zhaoyue, the servant's surname is Lin, and everyone in the palace calls her Aunt Lin." Aunt Lin said flatteringly.

Boqing saw everything in her eyes, and Mu Zhaoyue said politely: "So it's Aunt Lin, sorry for your trouble, my sister-in-law said that I am very grateful for the gift that the eighth princess gave her, please thank the eighth princess on behalf of my sister-in-law, When my sister-in-law recovers, she will definitely enter the palace to thank her in person."

"Madam Zuoxiang, Miss Zhaoyue is too polite, I will definitely tell you the story on your behalf."

After Aunt Lin finished speaking, she continued to speak respectfully to Bo Qing: "Mrs. Zuo Xiang's body has not fully recovered, so it is inconvenient for this servant to disturb you. Madam, please rest more, and this servant will leave."

Boqing nodded, gave Lianyi a wink, and Lianyi stepped forward with a smile and said, "Aunt Lin has worked hard all the way, and this slave will send you out."

Aunt Lin respectfully blessed her body and saluted: "Mrs. Xie, it's time to thank you."

"Aunt Lin, you're welcome, this way please!"

After watching Aunt Lin walk away, she glanced lightly at the several boxes in the hall, and sat leisurely on the right-hand seat of the front hall. Nanny Li, who had been waiting outside earlier, walked in and said, "Ma'am, servant girl Have someone send things to Tianhuayuan.”
