Chapter Forty-Seven: The Man Who Resolves
After someone else took care of the King of Chu, Xue Jinyi had to follow Mrs. Xue back to Huazhaolou.
The body of the young lady of Jin Anbo's family has been carried away, and most of the guests have dispersed, and the eldest princess is sitting in front of the screen, rubbing her brows helplessly and worriedly.
What a good day, it's too unfortunate that someone died here.
Seeing Xue Jinyi come back, the eldest princess's face improved slightly, and she asked, "Where did Miss Xue go?" ”
"Go back to the eldest princess," Mrs. Xue snatched the words, "When Jinyi went out to see the lanterns, she met that the king of Chu was unwell and sent him to see the doctor. Listening to the doctor's words, fortunately, he met Jinyi, and the king of Chu did not have to worry about his life. ”
"Oh?" The eldest princess raised her eyebrows and nodded at Xue Jinyi, "Jinyi is worthy of being a person favored by the Bodhisattva. ”
The people who didn't leave heard their conversation, and they all gathered around, looking at Xue Jinyi's eyes a little complicated, but they all echoed the words of the eldest princess and praised her kindness.
Xue Jinyi faced praise for the first time and wanted to disappear on the spot.
"Jinyi is dedicated to goodness," Mrs. Xue stared at Xue Jinyi with a loving expression, "I hope she can do more good deeds and accumulate virtue for herself." ”
"Not bad, not bad." The eldest princess's mood looked better, "Duchess Weiguo should also go back to rest early, and invite you to sit in my mansion another day." ”
Mrs. Xue pulled Xue Jinyi to salute, and the two came out of Huazhao Building.
The crowd outside had dispersed, except for the lanterns on the side of the street, which emitted a lonely and dim glow.
After Xue Jinyi got into the carriage, she asked softly, "Mother, Jinyi heard that the young lady of the Jin Anbo family died, and she ...... How did he die? ”
She looked at Mrs. Xue's face.
"How did you die?" Mrs. Xue turned her head to look at Xue Jinyi, "Probably there was some hidden illness that died violently." ”
She's lying! Repeating her question, and looking at her again...... Xue Jinyi could tell that Mrs. Xue was lying.
Jin Anbo's daughter, was it really killed by Mrs. Xue?
Xue Jinyi felt a layer of sweat in her palms, and sighed on the surface: "It's pitiful." ”
"Isn't it?" Mrs. Xue lifted the curtain and looked out the window at the market.
Is this a refusal to continue talking to her? Xue Jinyi tightened her skirt, how should she resolve this situation?
Mrs. Xue knew that Jin Anbo's family intended to marry her daughter to the king of Chu, and she was afraid that Jin Anbo would take away her credit, so she killed her, so that first of all, Jin Anbo's family had no unfavored daughter to take out, and secondly, there would be rumors that the king of Chu would take out his wife, and finally, ...... This is enough to worry the royal family, who care about reputation, and must find a way to defuse the rumors.
Mrs. Xue made the eldest princess think that she made the peony bloom as scheduled, which was bound to make the eldest princess think that she was the one who could solve the royal family's dilemma......
What is chanting and chanting Buddha in the family temple for a year, how can it be important to resolve the ferocious spirit on the king of Chu?
has repeatedly planned a good reputation for her, for this.
Xue Jinyi's gaze swept over Mrs. Xue's face, and the light of the street lights shone on her face, like this person's inconsistent personality.
On the way, the carriage passed by Jin Anbo's Mansion, and Mrs. Xue lowered the curtain and sighed lightly: "I hope there will be no more such a tragedy." ”
Then her eyes fixed on Xue Jinyi's face, the dim light made her eyes look gloomy and terrifying, Xue Jinyi didn't squeak, lowered her eyes slightly, as if she was feeling sad and scared for the young lady of Jin Anbo's family.
Madame Xue is warning her?
If she doesn't marry the King of Chu, anyone who dares to move the idea of stuffing her daughter to the King of Chu so that Madame Xue can't take credit in front of Queen Cai will die?
There is already a person dead, will Mrs. Xue still care about more lives? Obviously, in the face of her own interests, Mrs. Xue can kill people without blinking, and she is not a hard-hearted person, she can't watch innocent people die because of her, and she can be indifferent.
After that, there was nothing to say, and returned to the Weiguo Mansion with troubles, Xue Jinyi weakly pushed open the door of the broken courtyard, and Mama Yao and Caiyun, who heard the sound, both stepped forward.
"Miss, where have you been? Nothing happened, right? Mama Yao asked with concern.
Xue Jinyi barely squeezed out some smiles, "I just went to look at the lanterns on the street, it's fine." I was a little tired from walking, so I went to sleep first. Go to bed early, too. ”
With that, she walked briskly into the wing room and gently closed the door.
"Miss!" Mama Yao was not at ease.
"Mama," Caiyun grabbed Mama Yao's arm impatiently and yawned, "Miss must have no accident, otherwise she would definitely be whipped by Madame at this time, how can she come back with all her beards and tails?" ”
Mama Yao felt that what Caiyun said seemed to make some sense, looked at the door again, and then went to rest.
The next day, after Xue Jinyi got up, she gave Caiyun some copper plates, "You go to Dongshi to buy some dim sum and come back, it must be delicious and fresh, otherwise I won't make Zangzi noodles for you to eat." ”
can go out for a stroll, and there are noodles to eat, Caiyun couldn't ask for it, and happily took the money and left.
Mama Yao put a bowl of mung bean soup in front of Xue Jinyi, and asked puzzledly, "What did Miss do with Caiyun's money?" ”
"We'll find out when she gets back." Xue Jinyi took a sip of mung bean soup, and the sweet taste was more comfortable.
Half an hour later, Caiyun came back with a box of pastries, sat on the stone bench opposite Xue Jinyi, gasped and said, "I'm tired, I'll eat a few pieces of dim sum first, you won't care, right?" ”
"It's okay, it's all going to be eaten by the three of us anyway," Xue Jinyi smiled, "Have fun playing outside?" ”
"Okay, right?" Caiyun's eyes flashed with excitement, and he said with great interest: "Isn't this the young lady of the Jin Anbo family who died inexplicably at the eldest princess's birthday banquet?" This news has spread throughout the entire East Market this morning, and I think maybe everyone in the capital knows that His Royal Highness the King of Chu has killed another girl! ”
Sure enough, word spread...... Xue Jinyi sighed, her face completely devoid of interest in listening to gossip.
Caiyun was still immersed in the excitement of gossiping, "I heard that the palace sent someone out to find someone who could change the fate of the king of Chu." ”
Mama Yao shook her head, "If you want me to say, it's better to send the King of Chu to the temple, maybe you can get the favor of the Bodhisattva like our young lady and resolve the disaster?" ”
Xue Jinyi's eyes lit up.
Yes, what Mama Yao said makes sense.
As long as the King of Chu leaves, won't there be no troubles?
Xue Jinyi drank the rest of the mung bean soup in one go, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and got up, "Let's go, let's go and say hello to grandmother." ”
Mama Yao was puzzled, "Didn't Miss say that she wouldn't go during this time?" ”
"I guess my grandmother's illness is almost better, right?" Xue Jinyi glanced at Caiyun, "Shouldn't the granddaughter go to see her old man?" ”
Caiyun snorted coldly, "When people are sick, they don't wait for ......"
Xue Jinyi ignored her, "Let's go, after reading my grandmother, I have to go and ask Mrs. for peace, I can't delay." ”
It is impossible for Old Madam Xue not to know what is going on outside, she needs to stop the old lady before she takes action, otherwise according to Madam Xue's viciousness, she may attack this mother-in-law who is already disgusted!
