Mrs. Gan looked at Grandma He in astonishment: "Shi Zhongyu said he really had frostbite?"
Aunt He also didn't expect this girl to be so honest. She was told to stand in the snow, "Mr. Cao personally checked her pulse and said the coldness in her legs was not fake."
Lin Yutong himself was so proficient in cheating on his pulse that even a great doctor would find it difficult to detect the clues.
When Gan heard this, he couldn't think of other possibilities, and his expression changed for a moment: "I thought I was smart, but why am I still so stupid! Injuring the enemy by one thousand and damaging yourself by eight hundred is something only fools would do.
.”
"Master!" Nanny He whispered: "Why don't you please take care of the princess a little more...Besides, the girl is definitely not a fool. When people are pushed into a hurry, they have to use some stupid methods..." It was like the master knew clearly before.
What will happen after disobeying the prince, but it is the same reason that you are forced to do it.
Mrs. Gan knew what Nanny He meant and narrowed her eyes and said, "Forced?" Her tone suddenly turned cold, "Very good... Mrs. Chu..."
Aunt He knew that her master had another account in her mind. She seemed to think of something and changed the subject: "Shi Zhongyu asked the old slave to report to the master that she took in a person. It was the girl who asked that person to find her..."
"Who?" Mrs. Gan was really a little afraid that her daughter would not know the importance. Shi Zhongyu's side was particularly important and not everyone could know.
"Lin Yuzhi!" The look on Nanny He's face became strange.
My ex-husband’s concubine? This kind of relationship really gives me a toothache.
Mr. Gan raised his eyebrows, "Why is this kid so clueless?"
Aunt He came close to Mrs. Gan: "Shi Zhongyu said that this Lin Yuzhi is very strange. She inexplicably went from the Lin family to Jin Guogong's Mansion, and she was able to escape by herself inexplicably. When I went to see Shi Zhongyu, I watched through the screen
One glance at the girl showed that she was a little confused from the heat and had a wound on her head. But she kept mumbling something like "Broken Crossbow Army" and "Broken Crossbow Army". Maybe I heard it wrong, and maybe the other three words she said were not the same.
Definitely. What Shi Zhongyu meant is that the girl sent him there not because of the friendship between sisters, but because Lin Yuzhi probably knew something important. She asked me to tell the master that she will be following Mr. Cao these two days.
Let’s go see the girl again.”
Only then did Mrs. Gan understand. She pondered for a long time, and her tone was a little hesitant: "You say...Is it okay if I meet this child...?"
Aunt He saw Gan's hands involuntarily tightening the hem of her skirt, and understood the nervousness and anxiety in her heart. She was scared, which was the same as being more timid when she was close to home. She immediately said: "Okay! Why not? What if?
The opportunity is right..."
Is the opportunity right? There is no right or wrong opportunity.
In the past, when the child didn't know she was alive, she didn't dare to think about it. Now that the child knows, she feels that she can't wait to see the child even more.
Isn't it an opportunity? If there is an opportunity, you must see it. If there is no opportunity, you must create an opportunity.
Mrs. Gan came back to her senses and turned to look at Aunt He, "I'm a person who must retaliate. There are some things I can tolerate. I'll write them down first and then settle the matter slowly. But I can't tolerate this matter about Mrs. Chu. You tomorrow
Go tell Shi Zhongyu and ask her to arrange for someone to whisper in the ears of Lord Yong'an..."
Aunt He immediately understood. The Princess of Yong'an County was none other than the daughter of Princess Wenhui. She was previously named the Princess of Yong'an. She was demoted to the title of County Princess because of her fault last year. This matter is called the County Princess.
The Lord suffered a huge loss of face in the capital. He didn't see her show up for a year and kept saying she was ill at home. The culprit for her being demoted was none other than the Chu family.
Lin Yutong was also listening to the gossip about the Chu family that Sanxi had inquired about.
"... Princess Yong'an grew up in the palace when she was young. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is loved by thousands of people. The emperor is her uncle, and the empress dowager is still alive. It is said that the empress dowager likes her more than the two princes.
When she reached the age of hairpin, the Empress Dowager betrothed Princess Yong'an to her grandnephew from her natal family, but she didn't expect that this grandnephew was unlucky. He fell to death on a horse less than a month after getting married. After all, the princess couldn't be asked to guard this.
She was not born in a filial piety, so she married Marquis Wen Yuan and became her stepmother. But on the second day after the wedding, when she was presenting to her elders, she fainted. When she saw the doctor, she knew something was wrong! She was pregnant! More than three months!
Then this child is definitely not from the Xiao family of Marquis Wenyuan, but can only be from the Li family of Marquis Chengen of my ex-husband..."
Lin Yutong was holding the teacup and preparing to drink tea. Hearing this, he couldn't help but be stunned. What kind of fate is this? God doesn't joke like this.
Sanxi also shook her head: "This is true. You can find out if you ask casually. Back then, we almost had a falling out because of the child in her belly. But in the end, Princess Yong'an still gave birth to the child.
The Li family wanted to take away the child, but the princess refused to give it to him. They said that the child's surname was Li, but he could not return to the Li family until he reached adulthood. Princess Wenhui mediated, and the matter was settled.
The young master of the Li family grew up in the Xiao family. But the Li family is not authentic. Waiting for the young master to be fourteen, the Li family made the decision to marry him a concubine from the Chu family. Naturally, the Li family decided to get married.
It was arranged. But this girl from the Chu family didn’t know what she was thinking. She said she was married to the Li family and she was the wife of the Li family. She didn’t go to greet the princess at all. Even if they met outside, she only regarded the princess as the princess.
, she was not a mother-in-law at all. Later, I don’t know what happened, but it seemed that during the chrysanthemum appreciation party last autumn, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a conflict. The daughter-in-law had a miscarriage, and the mother-in-law became the sinner. My wife was also present at the time, and a quarrel broke out. The lawsuit was filed.
In front of the emperor, it was said that Prime Minister Chu knelt down to plead guilty to the emperor, but the emperor demoted the title of the princess and now she has become the county lord."
Although there are some inaccuracies in these things, the key content cannot be found outside. But based on what I heard, Lin Yutong is quite aggrieved for the county head. Especially for
This son is also in trouble. The Li family feels that she should not keep the child with her and not return it to the Li family. But don’t the Xiao family blame her? Raising a child that is not their own and poking people’s eye sockets can have a good attitude.
Yes, I feel overwhelmed when I think about it. Now, even this child may not be able to understand it. He may feel that his mother makes him not like the Li family, and he cannot become a Xiao family. In the end, he married a daughter-in-law,
It has become a barrier between mother and son. Lin Yutong did not dare to draw conclusions about what happened that day. But when she thought about such a mother who was reluctant to leave her child, saying that she deliberately caused her daughter-in-law to have a miscarriage, she was really suspicious.
.
Being able to ask the emperor to punish his niece, but also to give face to Prime Minister Chu, shows how rich the capital of the Chu family is in the court.
The county head herself is nothing, but she has a good mother. Princess Wenhui's current status in the clan is really unsurpassed by anyone. And no matter how Chu is the daughter of the Chu family, she is also the wife of the clan. If there is
Chances are, the eldest princess will not step forward to step on Mrs. Chu.
Lin Yutong felt that this matter really needed to be carefully planned.
But before she could make any plans, Shi Zhongyu arrived.
Lin Yutong was stunned when he looked at Shi Zhongyu, who was following Dr. Cao, wearing men's clothes and wrapped tightly.
"Girl..." Shi Zhongyu stepped forward and lifted the quilt to see Lin Yutong's legs.
Lin Yutong glanced at Doctor Cao and immediately understood that this was not an outsider. He waved his hands repeatedly, "It's okay! It's really okay. They are all fooling people..."
When Dr. Cao heard this, he immediately became displeased: "How could I have made a mistake in diagnosing the pulse?" His beard was stiff from the cold, and it looked like every root was standing on end. When he spoke, it was obvious that his beard was curling up and up.
Lin Yutong wanted to laugh. When he saw him talking, he stretched out his hands to rub his face and hands. He wanted to warm himself up a little and check his pulse again.
The fourth master glanced at Shi Zhongyu who was following him and asked Doctor Cao to sit outside: "Have a cup of hot tea and talk warmly. There's no rush."
Shi Zhongyu saluted the fourth master respectfully, knowing that this was to make room for the two of them to talk.
When there were two people left in the room, Lin Yutong quickly pulled Shi Zhongyu: "Has Lin Yuzhi gone to find you?"
Shi Zhongyu nodded: "When she came out that day, this girl was wearing an undershirt and a half-old cloak. When she arrived at my place, she didn't know her personnel. I heard her talking about 'breaking the crossbow army', and I didn't know what it meant.
.When people wake up, I’ll talk to you again.”
Breaking the crossbow army?
This is something I don't know.
Lin Yutong whispered: "I suspect that Duke Jin and the Chu family are planning something big. You heard about the 'Broken Crossbow Army' again. These two families are raising private soldiers."
"Private soldiers?" Shi Zhongyu's eyebrows twitched, and then he sneered, "That's fine, let Prince Heng go to hell."
Well?
Lin Yutong's expression made Shi Zhongyu understand immediately: "You don't want to join the Duke's mansion... If you go further, it's because of the Chu family."
"It's too early to say this." Lin Yutong couldn't shout out the details, so he only said: "I only know that my mother is now Prince Heng's concubine. With Prince Heng here, her life will be difficult.
Without Prince Heng, she will have no life to live. Even if Prince Heng is to fall, he cannot fall into the hands of others..."
Shi Zhongyu took a breath: "I understand, girl. I will tell the master this. In addition, there is a teahouse next door to Yunshang Pavilion. From now on, if you have important matters, you can ask your uncle to go to the teahouse to pass the news." With that, he looked out.
After taking a look, he said, "Uncle...are you reliable?"
Lin Yutong smiled: "Don't worry."
Seeing Lin Yutong's determined look, Shi Zhongyu was convinced. Most people couldn't resist the girl's appearance. She looked at Lin Yutong's legs and said, "My master sent me a message overnight, asking me to apply eye drops at Yong'an County Lord's."
.I guess the eldest princess will know about me now. Don’t worry, girl, I will definitely teach Mrs. Chu a lesson this time..."
Lin Yutong's eyes flashed, this is really the same thing as the heroes. They all thought of one point.
Fourth Master estimated that the time was almost up, so he brought Dr. Cao in. When Dr. Cao felt his pulse, he looked at Lin Yutong solemnly: "Does the girl know medical skills?"
"I read some medical books..." Lin Yutong prevaricated, "Changing the pulse is just a trick..."
Dr. Cao doesn't think so. If he can control his pulse so well, he must be at least a master of acupuncture.
After seeing the two of them off, Fourth Master tucked Lin Yutong into bed again: "This concubine Gan is really not an ordinary person." This seems to be a business, but all the information collected is intelligence.
Lin Yutong scratched his head: "No matter how many skills you have, you have to show them step by step." At least we have to wait until Prince Heng succeeds. At this time, no one will believe the promises made by a prince's concubine.
While they were talking, Guixi reported outside that the third young master was here.
Is Kim Shouri here?
The fourth master stood up and said, "You just lie down. I'll go to the front." After saying that, he told Sanxi, "Don't give your master cold fruits."
Tell her to rest, it's not that she's sick, it's because she's on her period.
Lin Yutong's medical skills will not be able to cure dysmenorrhea, but it is definitely not as comfortable as usual on this day. In addition, the weather is really too cold, so it is most comfortable to sit on the kang.
"Prepare a small hot pot. This is what we ordered. We don't want to entertain guests." She ordered, turned around and stared again.
The Fourth Master is indeed a guest.
Fourth Master and Jin Shouli were sitting opposite each other on the heated pavilion in front. The white soup was boiling in the pot on the table, and the aroma penetrated straight into their noses.
"What do you think about the division of property?" Jin Shouli took the wine poured by the Fourth Master and looked up at the Fourth Master's expression with a nonchalant look.
"Divide the property?" Fourth Master shook his head, "Give me a portion of the property that can support my wife and children. No matter how much I have, I don't even dare to think about it."
Jin Shouli felt that these words were actually quite sincere, especially after the fourth daughter-in-law offended Mrs. Chu, "Have you never thought about fighting?"
The fourth master nodded to Jin Shouli: "You are trying to trick me." He held the wine bottle and poured another glass for Jin Shouli, "Not only do I not dare to argue, but I also have to persuade you. Go back and talk to your second uncle.
Say, you can't make it. No matter how much wealth you have, it will be dead, but if a person wants to move up, it is not something that can be solved by money. The second uncle wants to serve, and the third brother can't live like this all his life, either.
I want to find a job to get ahead. But this Chu Cheng was first the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, then the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and then the Prime Minister. It has been many years, and there are many disciples and former officials. You said that you have offended people so much that you are no longer an official.
What can we do? Why did you forget so quickly that your second uncle was dismissed from office twice? The Chu family is a big tree. As long as the tree is there, we will have to stay there all day. If we really want more, we will have more.
Seriously, it’s really not a joke to go back and settle old scores.”
Jin Shouli thought to himself, don't you understand this truth? But what can be done? This wasted time is more than ten years. My father has been involved in this life, so he has to spend his whole life in it. This is a step forward, and he can't keep up step by step.
Above. With the same background, his son may really be nothing. In less than two generations, he will really become a commoner. He sighed, feeling a little frustrated: "Tell me, what do you think, uncle? Everyone knows
It is said that a single tree does not make a forest. If there are many brothers and nephews in the family, the more promising ones can support each other. It would be better for him to wish he could reduce everyone in the family to bare rods."
The fourth master chuckled. As a close confidant of the emperor, Jin Chengan acted as a solitary minister. The more ties between the family and the officialdom, the more trouble there would be. The more Prime Minister Chu suppressed Jin Chengan's brothers and nephews and prevented him from coming forward, the more trouble he became.
It was because he seemed to have a bad relationship with Jin Chengan, the father-in-law of the father-in-law. That was why the emperor did not hesitate to leave the city and trust him because he was Jin Chengan's father-in-law. Previously, Mrs. Chu wanted to marry Jin Shouren to a girl from the Chu family, and Jin Chengan had fiercely opposed it.
, and that attitude was not hidden from anyone at all. There were not many people in the capital who didn't know about it. But when it came time to celebrate the wedding, when Mrs. Chu mentioned the marriage, Jin Chengan immediately stopped objecting. This seemed to be because it was for the old lady's wedding.
Compromising for the sake of reason, in fact, is just pushing the boat along.
He did not accept Jin Shouli's words, as if he was speaking to an elder. Instead, he changed the subject and said: "Nowadays, there are complaints and complaints. I see, in fact, no one is complaining. The one we should blame the most is ourselves. If we really have the ability,
No one can block this Qingyun Road. No matter how much you hate Prime Minister Chu in your heart, you have to admire his ability. It is said that when he was the county magistrate in Xuzhou, in one year, he left only one
Xuzhou, which has about 20 households, has been managed. It has a population of tens of thousands. It will be self-sufficient for the next year and does not need government relief. What kind of ability do you think this is? I don’t think gods have such ability. I heard about the severe drought.
It has lasted for three years. What do you think the drought will be like in this field? As soon as I arrived in Xuzhou, the wind changed and the rain became smooth. Isn’t this a good life? God is helping me. As soon as this achievement came out, the Chu County Magistrate
He rose through the ranks and became the Prime Minister of Chu today."
Jin Shouli took another sip of wine and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. How could people have such luck? But as he listened, he felt something was wrong. Yes! Even if you perform magic tricks in a year, you can't do so many tricks.
The arrival of people can be regarded as attracting refugees, but what about the fields? You can't just fatten up the fields with just a breath, right? Is there really nothing fishy here?
Why does he feel that the fourth child is a little uneasy and well-intentioned when he says this today? It seems to be reminding him that if he wants to get ahead, he must kill the Chu family. And the breakthrough point for killing the Chu family should be found in the resume of Prime Minister Chu before he became famous...
