The Rebirth of Space: the Lucky Girl From a Farm Family

Chapter 254: There’s no going back

 After the ceremony, the grandfather and grandson went to Wenyuan Pavilion.

 Entering the study, Du Bin served tea and exited the study with Cheng Yun.

The British Duke asked: "Why did the prince come here? Is it because of the affairs of the Prime Minister's Palace?"

The Xian Wang nodded, "Among the five people who died at the entrance of the Prime Minister Wang's Mansion, two were from Yuanda Restaurant. However, the place where Ziqin's accident occurred was right at the entrance of Yuanda Restaurant. This makes people think a lot.

 Has the Duke asked Ziqin? Did he do this? "

 The British Duke said: "Probably not. Ziqin was seriously injured and could not get up from the bed.

As for the people serving him, on the day of the incident, Ru Jin followed the people from Jingzhao Mansion to track down the murderer, and made two trips in and out.

Ruji went to the drug store twice to grab some medicine, but Ruxuan was always at the house.

 Ru'an went to Hongcheng to handle affairs for Ziqin and had been gone for more than half a month. "

The wise king walked around the room and asked, "If it's not Ziqin, who could it be?"

 Yesterday, my father asked the Prime Minister to come down to talk, but today such a big thing happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In order to get my father to agree to this marriage, I have tried my best. I thought it was foolproof, but something went wrong at this juncture. "

Looking at the angry King, Yingying shook his head and said, "I haven't figured it out either. However, if the assassination of Ziqin was done by people from the Prime Minister's Office, then they went too far."

The King Xian argued: "Zi Qin's withdrawal from the engagement has made the people in the Prime Minister's Office angry. I am not surprised that they will attack Zixun.

 It’s just not early or late, but at this time, it’s not very annoying.

 These corpses were placed at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Who with a discerning eye could not see the connection between this matter and Ziqin's assassination? What would your father think?

Given his father's preference for Zi Qin, his father would definitely go to the Prime Minister's Mansion with suspicion.

 The matter of granting marriage may not be settled. "

The wise king sat down on the chair, his face full of frustration.

The British Duke heard what the wise king said and asked, "What are your plans next?"

The wise king shook his head, "I have no plans at the moment. Let's wait and see what my father does. Is Ziqin okay? I will go to Shuying Garden to have a look."

With that said, the wise king stood up, and the British duke stood up after him, "Go, Ziqin has always been kind to the prince. Ziqin will be very happy if the prince can go and see him."

Lu Ziqin and Gu Huayu were walking in the courtyard when a servant hurriedly came over and said, "Sir, the prince is coming to our side."

Gu Huayu smiled and said: "You have to go back and continue to pretend to be sick. It's time for me to go back too. I'll see you another day."

Lu Ziqin wanted to persuade him to stay, but he was worried that the wise king would stay for a long time.

He can drive away Lu Zixun, but he cannot drive away the wise king. So he nodded and said, "Let Ruji take you back."

 Gu Huayu nodded, "I know. Go back and lie down quickly. Remember to put some powder on your face so as not to expose any flaws."

Lu Ziqin walked up to the room and turned back and said, "Remember to come see me, otherwise, I will be lovesick."

Gu Huayu raised her eyebrows, smiled and waved to him, "I know."

Gu Huayu retreated to the corner of the corridor and watched Lu Ziqin enter the main room. She turned around and saw the Xian Wang entering the courtyard with his entourage.

 When King Xian entered the main room, the sound of pleasantries rang out in the room.

“Ruji, go and do your business, there is Ruxuan here.”

After a while, Ruji walked over to Gu Huayu and said, "Master, I asked the younger one to take you back. Let's go this way and go out through the back door."

 “Okay!” Gu Huayu followed Ruji to the back door.

“Madam, the prince went to Wenyuan Pavilion first, and after coming out of Wenyuan Pavilion, he went to Shuying Garden.” A voice came from the left.

 Hearing the words "Shuyingyuan", Gu Huayu stopped.

 Seeing Gu Huayu stop, Ruji stopped, turned around and asked, "Master, what's wrong?"

Gu Huayu pointed to the walled yard on the left and asked, "Whose yard belongs to it?"

Ruji turned to look over and said: "On the other side of the wall is the backyard. The place the master pointed to is the second wife's Dangui Garden. Next to the Dangui Garden is the second wife's Yujing Garden."

“Mother, I don’t blame my grandmother for being angry. The Duke and the Prince are indeed partial.

Grandma is the prince’s biological grandmother. How many times has the prince come to visit her during these days of illness?

Just once, that time, it was because Mr. Liu returned to the house that day.

The prince went to Rongan Hall for a walk, and then went to Shuying Garden. He stayed there for more than an hour, and even asked Mr. Liu to go to Fanlou for dinner.

Today, it is even more extreme. He went directly to Shuyingyuan from Wenyuan Pavilion. I am afraid that the prince will not remember that he has a grandmother in Rongan Hall. "

"Actually, there's nothing to be angry about. It's just that the old lady can't figure it out and can't see through it. Alas, old lady, she has lived in vain for decades."

 “How do you say this, mother?”

“The old lady was unhappy. She was unwilling to accept it. She felt that the Duke and the prince were partial to the sixth child.

 How can the prince and the empress be so partial to each other?

I have been married to a British prince for more than 20 years, watched my queen enter the palace, and watched the prince grow up.

 The prince and his wife are worthy of being mother and son. They only have eyes for themselves and their own interests. In this regard, the prince and the empress are very much like the prince.

You see that they are partial to Lao Liu, but in fact, what they prefer is the emperor's attitude towards Lao Liu.

One day, the emperor's attitude towards Lao Liu changed. If you look at the Duke and the prince again, I guarantee that they will not even look at Lao Liu. "

 “Why does the emperor prefer Mr. Liu?”

“I don’t know, it’s said to be because of the Queen, who is Lao Liu’s aunt…”

“Master, someone is coming this way, let’s leave quickly.” Ruji reminded.

Gu Huayu nodded and followed Ruji away.

She didn’t expect that Li was one of the few sober people in the Duke’s mansion.

In Shuying Garden, the pale-faced Lu Ziqin was lying on the bed, looking listless. Compared with when he was walking in the yard before, he looked completely different.

The Xian Wang sat down at the table and asked with some concern: "How do you feel? Are you feeling better? Has Doctor Hu come to see you today?"

Lu Ziqin said feebly: "It is the emperor's supreme grace to bother Dr. Hu once to visit the palace. How can I trouble Dr. Hu every day?

 Besides, I have Ruji by my side, so there is no need to trouble Dr. Hu with everything. "

The wise king nodded, "That's right. You still have Ruji by your side. I almost forgot about it."

After saying this, the wise king asked, "Did you see anyone shooting arrows at you that day?"

Lu Ziqin shook his head, "At that time, the car was surrounded by people, and Rujin started fighting with others again. My attention was all on Rujin and nothing else."

The wise king said thoughtfully: "Who would attack you? You are not the one who caused trouble."

Lu Ziqin advised: "My lord, don't think too much about it. Your Majesty has already asked people from Jingzhao Mansion and the Military and Horse Division to investigate this matter. We just have to wait patiently. Jingzhao Mansion must give an explanation." Xun said that Prince Xian’s Palace and Prime Minister Wang’s Palace are planning to get married, is it true? Congratulations, Your Majesty.”

“Father has not yet issued an edict on this matter, so it is too early to say congratulations now.

The king wants Ziran to serve as consul in the palace. What do you think, Ziqin? "The Xian Wang replied awkwardly and quickly changed the subject.

Lu Ziqin said: "As long as the prince thinks it is good, Ziran is doing his job with all his heart."

The wise king nodded and said with some agreement: "I think so too. It seems that we have similar views on people. I also think that he is more dedicated to his work and not impatient."

“The prince has given me so much respect, how can I dare to compare with the prince with my eyesight like this?”

After Lu Ziqin finished speaking, he yawned twice, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said tiredly and energetically: "I'm sorry, I'm rude."

Seeing that Lu Ziqin was tired, the wise king stood up knowingly and said, "Ziqin, please rest more and hope for a speedy recovery. I will take my leave now and come to see you another day."

Lu Ziqin tried his best to open his eyes and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, the medicine contains sedative ingredients. After drinking it, I feel sleepy."

"It's okay. You have a good rest. I will take my leave."

 Lv Ziqin told Ruxuan: "Send the prince off for me."

Ruxuan bowed down and said to the wise king respectfully: "Your Majesty, please come this way."

Lu Ziqin looked at the departing figure of the wise king and fell into deep thought. He was afraid that there would never be any return between them.

 The King Xian left Shuyingyuan and took Chengyun and others to return home. Chengyun reminded: "Sir, we haven't gone to Rong'an Hall to pay our respects to the old lady yet."

The wise king thought for a while and walked to Rong'an Hall.

When the wise king arrived at the entrance of Rongan Hall, Furong hurriedly entered the room and reported to Mrs. Yang: "Old madam, the prince is here."

Mrs. Yang said impatiently: "Come here, why are you in a hurry? I know, go down and do your work."

Furong stepped back. Seeing Mrs. Yang's indifferent look, Grandma Wang carefully advised her, "Old madam, it's rare for the prince to come here."

Mrs. Yang raised her head and looked at Grandma Wang and said, "He is pretending to come to see me. I still have to laugh with him and sing with him, right?"

Wang Yan also wanted to continue to persuade, and looked up to see that the king had stepped into the door, and hurried to the King of the King.

Seeing the wise king come in, Mrs. Yang closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

Seeing Mrs. Yang’s eyes closed, the wise king asked in a low voice, “Grandma, have you rested?”

Grandma Wang bent her knees and responded: "Back to your lord, the old lady always sleeps for an hour every afternoon."

The wise king nodded and said: "It is a good thing to be able to eat and sleep. When grandma wakes up, tell her that I have visited her. I have something to do, so I will see grandma next time."

Grandma Wang bent her knees and bowed in response.

After the wise king left, Mrs. Yang opened her eyes, turned over and sat up.

Grandma Wang turned around and saw Mrs. Yang sitting on the soft couch. She sighed slightly and said, "Why are you doing this?"

Mrs. Yang curled her lips and said, "If it weren't for Ziran, I wouldn't even bother to pretend."

While pouring tea for Mrs. Yang, Grandma Wang nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, you always do this all for the sake of the uncle."

Mrs. Yang took the tea handed over by Grandma Wang, lowered her head and took a sip, "Did the prince come from that evil barrier?"

Grandma Wang replied, "Yes, the prince is coming from Shuyingyuan."

Mrs. Yang put her cup on the table next to her and said with a sense of loneliness: "Your Majesty, after living in the palace for a long time, she has changed.

 She is not grateful at all for the fact that I am doing her best. She would rather trust outsiders than Lao Shen, who is her biological mother.

 She is the flesh that fell from the old body, will the old body still harm her?

Lu Dingkun didn't crawl out of my belly, how could the people in his room marry us?

That evil man has a very deep scheming mind. How many times have I reminded you of this? The queen just can’t listen!

I can't understand the prince's proposal for marriage. There are many ladies in the capital who are dignified, graceful, gentle and pleasant.

 As a prince, why worry about not being able to find a good match?

The mother -in -law had to pick up the evil obstacle to Wang Ye. Your Majesty, aren't you being a mean prince? "

Grandma Wang advised: "The empress should have her own considerations. Maybe the Wang Xiangfu will be more helpful to the prince."

“Bah!” Grandma Yang blurted out, “That’s just stupid talk. You have to rely on your own strength to make iron. Don’t you understand?

With a status like the prince, if he relies on others today, others will hinder him in the future.

 Instead of using these crooked ideas, it is better for the prince to behave well in front of the emperor. "

Wang Yan owed his body: "The old lady said reasonable, and the next time Wang came over, you always said to Wang Ye, Wang Ye will listen to your old words."

Mrs. Yang waved her hand, "That's all. They all dislike Lao Shen very much. How can they listen to Lao Shen's words? Lao Shen also wants to understand that apart from Ziran, Lao Shen doesn't care about anyone else."

Grandma Wang advised: "Old Madam, please don't speak angrily. Your Majesty is the old Madam's darling, and the prince was also pampered by the Old Madam and grew up. How can the Old Madam say that she doesn't care?

 The uncle said that the prince asked him to go to the prince's palace to serve as consul. From now on, if the old lady has anything to say, she can ask the uncle to tell the prince. "

Mrs. Yang was a little moved when she heard this and asked, "Will the prince listen to Ziran?"

Grandma Wang shook her head, "I don't know, this old man is working in the palace. Even if he doesn't listen to everything he says, he will think about it."

Mrs. Yang thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty is kind-hearted. As long as the evildoer doesn't go to the palace, he will listen to Ziran sooner or later."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Yang asked: "Do you buy the food for Shuyingyuan yourself or do you go to the big kitchen to get it?"

Grandma Wang looked at Mrs. Yang nervously and said, "I came to the big kitchen to get the ingredients and went back to the small kitchen in Shuyingyuan to cook them myself. The old lady asked what we were doing."

Mrs. Yang glanced at Grandma Wang, and after a moment, she said: "Give that evil obstacle some more of the medicine from back then."

Grandma Wang's hand froze and she said, "Old madam, are you afraid that the medicine won't work?"

Old Mrs. Yang asked: "Why?"

Grandma Wang said: "The person next to Mr. Liu, Ruji, has great medical skills. If he sees the clues..."

Mrs. Yang said disdainfully: "So what if he finds out? If I insist on not admitting my guilt, what can he do to me?"

Grandma Wang advised: "What can Mr. Liu do to the old lady? But what about the Emperor? Mr. Liu is deeply loved by the Emperor. What if Mr. Liu makes trouble in front of the Emperor?"

Old Madam Yang looked at Grandma Wang coldly with a sullen face. She regretted that she had not torn down the evil barrier a few years ago.

Grandma Wang was so stared at by Grandma Yang that she stood aside cautiously, waiting for Mrs. Yang's stormy scolding.

For the first time, Mrs. Yang did not scold loudly, but said lightly: "I'm tired, just stay here for a while."

Grandma Wang hurriedly stepped forward to help Mrs. Yang lie down, and then put a thin quilt on her.

Just as Grandma Wang was about to retreat, Mrs. Yang said calmly: "You need to remember, you are my servant."
