Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 380 True Strength
Seeing that Li Chenxiu was about to leave, Zhang Ruxue's heart tightened, and she hurriedly looked up at him.

Shang Kelan looked at him with a smile, and said, "Why are you leaving? Could it be that there are not enough rooms in this palace for you to live in?"

Li Chenxiu blushed slightly, bowed his head and said, "Caomin dare not."

"If you want to go back to the Li family in Meizhou, you can also ask Uncle Xu to give you some money. If you want to stay in the capital and make a career out of it, you can also use this place as your residence. Besides, you can rest assured that Miss Zhang Alone here?"

The last sentence was purely an impromptu addition when she saw Zhang Ruxue's nervous expression.

But Li Chenxiu and Zhang Ruxue felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, what else did Shang Kelan not understand?
The two seem to be destined by fate, and from Shang Kelan's point of view, this is much better than Li Chenxiu falling to death on Concubine Ning's tree.

Furthermore, Li Chenxiu owed him a kindness, Zhang Ruxue also had a predestined relationship with him, and Shang Kelan would help them no matter what.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Li Chenxiu's eyes flickered, as if many thoughts were rushing through him. After a while, he nodded and said: "Yes, thank you, Concubine Chen."

Seeing him talking and sitting back again, Zhang Ruxue breathed a sigh of relief.

After setting them up, Shang Kelan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, looked at Li Chenxiu, and couldn't help asking: "By the way, Brother Li, there is something I want to ask you for advice."

Li Chenxiu nodded, looked at her and said, "Please tell me."

Shang Kelan's eyes flickered slightly, and said: "If a person's appearance is destroyed by poison, can she still recover? It even looks more beautiful than before."

Hearing this, Li Chenxiu pondered for a moment, then shook his head and replied: "As far as I know, if it is really seriously damaged by poison, even after time and medical treatment, the appearance cannot be completely restored to its original state, and there will be traces more or less What remains on the face is even less likely to be more beautiful than before."

On the side, after hearing this, Zhang Ruxue couldn't help guessing: "Could it be that person changed his face?"

Li Chenxiu lowered his eyes and recalled: "If you change your face... I remember that when I was a child, I read the family medical book Strange Story Records. It is recorded that in the period of the first emperor, he was fond of raising magicians, practicing the methods of cultivating immortals, and learning the art of immortality. One of them The warlock is extremely outstanding, no matter how the person's appearance is destroyed, he can restore the person to the original state, and the appearance is even better than before."

As soon as these words came out, Shang Kelan's eyelids couldn't help but twitch, and he asked, "Is this person still alive? Do you know his name?"

Li Chenxiu shook his head: "There is no record of his name, but this warlock cannot be alive. If he is still alive, he should be 120 years old."

120 years old!

Shang Kelan's pupils shrank slightly, and a name instantly appeared in his mind: Master Yunqing!

At that time, Zhao Kehan ​​was disfigured, and it was Master Yunqing who went to Yunlai Temple in Zhejiang Province to find her, and then she recovered her appearance.

Although Zhao Kehan ​​explained to the outside world that she sincerely worshiped the Buddha and the Buddha restored her appearance, Shang Kelan didn't believe it.

That Master Yunqing is also over 100 years old, judging from the timeline, it coincides with the character Li Chenxiu mentioned.

Could it be that Master Yunqing was the sorcerer from the late emperor's time?

But if this is the case, how did Zhao Kehan ​​contact her?Could it be that Zhao Kehan ​​still holds the power of the late emperor?
Thinking of this, Shang Kelan felt as if something was about to explode in his head, and his face became a little ugly.

Li Chenxiu froze for a moment, couldn't help but look at her, and said worriedly: "Ma'am, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Ruxue wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and hurriedly handed her a cup of tea.

Yuliu's eyes flickered slightly, and she patted Shang Kelan's shoulder lightly from behind.

After Shang Kelan came back to her senses, she pursed her lips and said with a smile to the two of them, "Don't worry, I'm fine, but I suddenly remembered that there are some things I haven't finished, so I'm leaving first."

After finishing speaking, she got up and greeted Uncle Xu, Mrs. Tian and Xiaomei. Uncle Xu sent her out, while Mrs. Tian and Xiaomei took Zhang Ruxue and Li Chenxiu to the wing.

After leaving Shangzhai, Shang Kelan and Yuliu got into the carriage and drove towards the Taimiao on the hill in the city.

In the carriage, seeing that Shang Kelan was a little restless, Yuliu brought her a cup of tea and said, "Your Majesty, what did you think of just now?"

Shang Kelan shook his head, took a sip of the tea, and said solemnly: "The relationship is too important, if what I expected is correct, I am afraid that Concubine Jia is more difficult to deal with than what I imagined."

Yu Liu was puzzled and wanted to ask again, but seeing Shang Kelan's expression, she closed her mouth knowingly.

Zhao Kehan... Could it be that the remnants of the former emperor's party have not been eradicated?

Faintly, Shang Kelan felt a little uneasy, but she had no choice but to suppress this matter, and wait until later to send someone to find out the real identity of Master Yun Qing.

At this time, Zhang Mansion.

In the lobby, Mrs. Zhang looked at the boy who came back to report in disbelief, and shouted, "What did you say? The concubine Chen took the young lady away?"

The little servant knelt in front of her, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead, nodded his head hastily, and said with a bitter face: "Madam, please forgive me! The little one is just following the words of the concubine Chen!"

On the side, Da Zhang's face was flushed with anger, and he said angrily: "This Concubine Chen is so majestic, she even took care of the old man's family affairs! I must go to Prime Minister Zuo to discuss it carefully, and see what kind of concubine he handed over." daughter!"

Mrs. Zhang's face was ugly, and Zhang Baozhi beside her kicked the boy away angrily, cursing: "Trash! Why don't you catch her earlier?"

She was in a panic, damn it, now that Zhang Ruxue is suing Concubine Chen, isn't Concubine Chen going to separate from her?Then how can she establish a good relationship with the imperial concubine and let the imperial concubine be her backer?
Everyone had different thoughts, at this moment, a burst of noise gradually came over.

"Zhang Yuanwai, Zhang Yuanwai, you really can't go in!"

"Get away from me!"

I saw an old man with hanging triangular eyes, a bloated figure, and a sinister expression walking in.

He pushed away the maid who was blocking him, stepped into the lobby, looked at Mrs. Zhang and Master Zhang with a sneer, and said, "I don't know what the father-in-law and mother-in-law mean? My new wife, when are you going to give it to me?"

Master Zhang was stunned for a moment, looked at him suspiciously and said, "Who are you?"

The Yuanwai in the portrait is not like this at all, he is old and fierce, and has nothing to do with a gentle and graceful young man.

The smile on Mrs. Zhang's face froze, and she had no choice but to go forward to laugh with her, and said: "Mr. Zhang, this young lady ran away suddenly. We can't hand over anyone right now. Look..."

Zhang Yuanwai sneered, looked at her contemptuously and said, "Okay, if you can't hand it over to someone else, then return the dowry to me!"

Mrs. Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, took out the gift list and said, "Hey, okay, I'll let someone carry it over!"

As soon as the words fell, Mrs. Zhang walked out.

Not long after, a few servants carried five large mahogany boxes and placed them in the lobby.

Zhang Yuanwai walked to these boxes in a leisurely manner, opened the lids one by one, and saw that the boxes were filled with jade, silver, gold, cloth, and pearls.

Almost every box is worth ten thousand taels.

Zhang Yuanwai nodded in satisfaction, looked at Mrs. Zhang and said, "Well, yes, what about the silver and the land deed?"
