Chapter 132 Seventh Lady 02
In the main hall of the Lin family, Mrs. Hu was crying with tears all over her face, "It's a cold place like Shuozhou in the north. How can Jing Qian go to such a place when he is old? I know that the case is currently being heard by three courts. Lin Huai cannot be changed by one person, so that’s it. The place of exile can always be changed, right?”
Ms. Chu sighed, "It's not that we don't help, you also know that it is a joint trial of three divisions. All the officials convicted this time will be severely punished. Jing Qian's guilt has already been dealt with lightly for the sake of our master's face. Although it is bitterly cold in Shuozhou, it is not impossible to be transferred elsewhere in two years. But at this critical moment, how dare you act against the will of the Holy Spirit?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Hu's expression suddenly changed, she wiped the tears on her face, and stared at Mr. Chu with a cold look in her eyes, "I finally figured it out. Lin Huai is about to be promoted to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Justice. He is Are you afraid that you will be implicated? Needless to say, the friendship between our two families in the early years is needless to say. Now we are still engaged. Mr. Bo's face is not good-looking, and yours is not good-looking. You treat us so poorly. How dare I treat Xian'er? Leave it to you?"
Seeing her being so indiscriminate, Mrs. Chu's eyes darkened in anger, "I and Zhao'er have helped to inquire many times earlier. Bao Jingqian himself has unclean hands and feet. There is irrefutable proof that even the King of Heaven and I will save him." He can't!" Mrs. Chu said with a sneer, "I don't care if you don't worry or not. The Lin family has been criticized for your affairs. For the sake of the friendship in the early years, they did everything to help and comfort you. Now you say you don't Feel free to leave Xian'er to us? How about it? Do you want to regret your marriage? If you want to regret your marriage, then we have nothing to say. Anyway, the wedding date has not been decided yet, and we dare not delay Xian'er's bright future!"
"Aunt——"
Bo Yixian, who was standing outside, came in with red eyes. She first glanced at Mrs. Hu angrily and said quickly: "Auntie, don't be angry. It's just the mother who is talking nonsense in anger. Uncle Lin and Brother Zhao have already helped us a lot." This time, we all remember that my mother was rude just now, and I apologize to my aunt on my mother's behalf."
Ms. Chu was wringing the handkerchief in her hands, still angry, but Mrs. Hu was dissatisfied with her daughter being so humble and petty, "Xian'er, you——"
"Mother, please stop talking." Bo Yixian turned around, with a stern expression on her usually obedient face.
Ms. Hu was glared at by her fiercely, unable to say a word. Bo Yixian blessed Chu Ming again, "It's us who are causing trouble today. Xian'er will take her mother home first and come to visit her someday. Auntie apologizes."
Ms. Chu felt her heart throbbing with pain, and waved her hand, "Go ahead, go ahead."
Bo Yixian apologized again and pulled Mrs. Hu towards the door. Mrs. Hu staggered, but she hated Bo Yixian, "What are you doing! Are you going to the Lin family? Your father is here If you go to Shuobei, you may lose your life! Why are you so unfilial—"
"Mother! Shut up!" Bo Yixian shouted, her eyes filled with anger.
She dragged Mrs. Hu onto the carriage and couldn't help but push Mrs. Hu, "Did mother lose her mind? She actually talked to Aunt Lin like that! Now my father is in such a situation. Does the mother still want to ruin her daughter’s marriage?"
Bo Yixian looked fierce. Mrs. Hu looked at Bo Yixian blankly, wondering how her good daughter had become like this. She burst into tears and said, "Who am I doing this for? I am not doing this for your father. The Lin family has made an engagement with us, shouldn’t they help us? He, Lin Huai, is the minister of the Ministry of Justice, I don’t believe he has nothing to do!”
Bo Yixian's eyes became colder, "Mother, just think about this in your heart. In two days, you can honestly go to the Lin family to apologize. Without our father, the Lin family is our support. We We must firmly hold the Lin family, how can we make them unhappy? Also, my marriage with Brother Zhao has been decided a long time ago. If you ruin it, don’t blame me for denying you as my mother!"
Bo Yixian's eyes were determined, and Hu's face was shocked. She also felt that she could not antagonize the Lin family, but when she thought that the Lin family could help but did not help, she still felt itchy with hatred. In the future, her husband would be the culprit, and she Without the honor of the First Lady of the Bo family, she would only become farther and farther away from the Chu family. Thinking of this, Mrs. Hu covered her heart and cried again.
Tears fell from Bo Yixian's eyes when she saw this, and she was especially frightened in her heart. This marriage was originally intended to be preempted. Now that the Bo family's big house has fallen into such a state, it is really easy for the Lin family to regret the marriage. , and if she loses her marriage to Lin Zhao, what else does she have left?
In the Lin Mansion, Ms. Chu was lying on the couch, stroking her heart, looking very ugly. Not long after, Lin Huai and Lin Zhao returned. When they heard that Mrs. Hu and her daughter had come to the house again today, they all looked gloomy.
Mrs. Chu still had anger on her face, "It's true that mother and daughter have said all the good and bad things. It was nothing for me to work for them earlier, but now that Bo Jingqian is in jail and convicted, it is all our fault. Our Lin Mansion will We are engaged to them, and we are not married yet. Even if we are married, we should talk about some principles. There is no saying that just because of a marriage, we have to rely on us for everything. If there is anything that is not to our liking, it is us. She was afraid of being implicated for not doing her best, and her mother also said that she was worried about leaving Xian'er to us."
Mrs. Chu took a breath, but her chest still hurt, "Listen to this, they are in such a situation now, and we haven't said anything yet, but she said this. In the past, I thought she was mean-spirited and concerned about face. , but she never thought she was such an arrogant and unreasonable person. Now that I know it, she is not worried. I am still worried that if Xianer really marries us, we will have endless troubles."
After Mrs. Chu finished speaking, she went to see Lin Zhao again. She saw that her son was handsome, elegant, and a young hero. In the future, he would be able to become a marquis and prime minister. But now, he wanted to marry the daughter of the most important minister. At that moment, he saw golden light in front of his eyes. Risk, "Oh, I really can't listen to her words. If I have such an in-law, I'm afraid I will lose ten years of my life."
When Lin Zhao saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward to pour tea for Mrs. Chu. Lin Huai stood with his hands behind his hands, his face looking heavy, "But this marriage is already known to everyone in the city. If I regret the marriage now, I can't do it." Wait."
Ms. Chu couldn't help but look at Lin Zhao, "Zhao'er, what do you think?"
Compared to the Chu family, Lin Zhao's expression was normal, "Mother, don't worry. Although Bo Shibo is in exile, the Bo family still has some family wealth, but there is no one in the family who is an official in the court. Since this marriage has been planned for many years, , if we regret our marriage now, we have broken our promise."
Ms. Chu hesitated before speaking, "I don't want to be the one who breaks promises, but...it's just that her father and mother are useless. Don't underestimate the Yue family, in case they drag you down in the future..."
Lin Zhao licked his lips and said, "Everyone has been exiled to Shuozhou, and there is nothing to worry about. Mother, don't take Aunt Bo's words to heart. She really doesn't know the etiquette. It would be better if mother doesn't get angry because of this." ”
Seeing Lin Zhao's words, Mrs. Chu went to see Lin Huai again. Lin Huai sighed, "You don't have to ask me about the truth that even my son knows."
Mrs. Chu felt as bitter as swallowing Coptis chinensis in her mouth. However, this pain was the beginning of the pain. Now she had no other choice but to suffer it. She thought of Cheng Yunzhi's original words, which really came true. Hey, it's a pity that I didn't have the heart to break up with the Bo family and change the marriage, otherwise I wouldn't have to be so depressed today!
When the Bo Lin family was in trouble, Bo Ruoyou was looking for a craftsman in the city to plant flowers in his new house.
The last owner of the new house lived here seven or eight years ago. He was also confiscated due to a crime. Although the house was under the control of the internal government, it was neglected. Now the house has been renovated and has a new look. The scenery in the house But it was quite depressed, especially now that it was early autumn, it was even more withered. There was nothing going on in the yamen, so Bo Ruoyou started thinking about decorating the courtyard.
So busy, and going to Wu Zhaohou Mansion to visit Huo Qinghong every day. He was a little sleepy, but now he has energy, but he still doesn't want to speak. Cheng Yunzhi was brought freshly made fragrant pills and lit. Seeing him leaning on the couch in a daze, he couldn't help but sigh, "The prince has been away from Beijing for more than a month, why is the prince still unwilling to speak?"
Huo Qinghong raised his eyes to look at her, his lips were tightly pursed and he was silent again. Bo Ruoyou came forward and said, "Master Hou is banning gold ointment in the southwest now. He was very worried about the prince when he wrote the letter, but the prince has been sick these days. If you don’t have enough energy, why not send a letter to the southwest to reassure the Marquis?"
Huo Qinghong raised his eyes to look at her again, frowning slightly, as if he was impatient to hear her words. Bo Ruoyou shook his head, "The prince is still a child at heart-"
"What's wrong with the child's character?" Huo Qinghong was quite dissatisfied.
Bo Ruoyou took the time to look at him, "Your Majesty, I have been quite depressed these past three months. Firstly, I felt unwell due to poisoning. Secondly, I said some heart-breaking words to the Marquis when he was poisoned. Later I felt sad. I feel ashamed and have no face to face the Marquis, okay?"
Huo Qinghong hesitated to speak, but Bo Ruoyou did not argue with him, and said directly: "Your Majesty is two years older than me, and he is a man. If you really have any resentment, you should speak frankly to the Marquis——"
"I didn't—"
"Whether there is or not, the prince is the most beloved brother of the Marquis. Not to mention that he just said the wrong thing for a moment, it means the prince did something wrong. He is more protective than harsh to the prince. The prince understands this better than me. ."
Huo Qinghong gritted his teeth, "Of course I understand, you don't need to say it."
Bao Ruoyou touched her lips, but soon showed a solemn look on her face, "It's true that I don't need to say it. The prince understands in his heart, but he is just holding back. It's just that now the Marquis can't get away in the southwest, and there are dangers around him. The prince I look sad all day long in Beijing, which really makes others anxious..."
A look of anxiety appeared on his face, "Brother, is there something wrong in the southwest?"
Bao Ruoyou spread his hands, "I don't know, I haven't received a letter from the Marquis for many days. I just heard that a lot of officials from the Southwest clan were involved, and there were even bandits involved, and gold ointment is a business of the wealthy. , you can imagine how many people don’t like the Marquis to go investigate, but if there are those who take risks, no matter how prestigious the Marquis is, I’m afraid I can’t suppress them.”
Huo Qinghong stood up and said, "Brother is unbeatable on the battlefield, how can he be contained in the southwest?"
Bao Ruoyou had planned to leave, but he couldn't help turning around when he heard this, "That night, the Marquis was injured in the eldest princess's mansion. The eldest princess suddenly became ill and stabbed the Marquis with a hairpin. The Marquis helped him at that time. The eldest princess could have avoided it, but she didn't dare to let go, so she got hit hard."
Huo Qinghong was frightened for a while, as if he had never thought that Huo Weilou would be injured because of this. Bo Ruoyou spoke slowly, "No matter how invincible the Marquis is, he is still a body of flesh and blood, and the understanding of those close to him is The sword will hurt him, and the hidden arrows of demons and demons can also take advantage of him. As for both inside and outside the court, the prince should know more about his difficulties than a woman like me."
Huo Qinghong's eyes trembled slightly. Although he didn't realize how compelling Bo Ruoyou's expression was, those black eyes that were as if he were stating facts made him feel ashamed. His face turned blue and red for a moment, which was quite difficult. At home.
Bao Ruoyou sighed softly, "Have a good rest and come back to see the Crown Prince tomorrow."
After she finished speaking, she left. Huo Qinghong raised his eyes for a moment, but only saw her gentle and upright back slowly walking away.
Now that she has moved into her new house, it is only a stick of incense away from Wu Zhaohou's mansion. When she got on the carriage, Bo Ruoyou counted on her fingers. It was indeed twelve days since she received a letter from Huo Weilou. She couldn't help but feel anxious. Hanging up.
The carriage returned home slowly. When it arrived outside the house, Bo Ruoyou saw Wu Xiang. Wu Xiang was wandering outside the door. When he turned around and saw her carriage coming back, he immediately looked slightly relieved and said, "Fortunately, you are back. I'm still here." I’m afraid I’m in the wrong place!”
Wu Xiang came here for the first time. Bo Ruoyou helped Cheng Yun get out of the carriage and then asked: "Why is the head arrester here?"
Wu Xiang grasped the knife at his waist and said, "There is a case."
After hearing this, Cheng Yunzhi's expression changed slightly. Bo Ruoyou invited Wu Xiang into the house and asked Zhou Liang to get the autopsy equipment while listening to him explain the case. Wu Xiang said: "The crime happened in the nunnery outside the city. , the person who died was a nun who was practicing as a disciple in the nunnery. It looked like she had been dead for many days..."
