The Favoured Medical Princess: 520 backer

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!

Mr. Lu remained silent as she felt guilty, and General Zhou became more and more suspicious.

After the scandal happened at the birthday banquet of the Prince's Mansion, General Zhou was worried at first that his ignorant daughter would cause trouble for him. Who would have thought that the next day, King Zhennan would send someone to kill his eldest son? Called over and assigned errands. Although it was just a false position from the sixth grade, it could be considered a future.

Think about the Chang family and the Yu family, who sent their children to the battlefield in order to give their children a future. The fighting in front was so intense that it was almost a risk for one's life. Even if one could come back alive, it would only be a sixth-grade military rank.

The future is important, but life is more important!

Just like his eldest brother, who lost his life on the battlefield before he was even crowned weak, the Dingyuan General Mansion could only be handed over to him, a man who had never been on the battlefield.

Thus, in those days, although General Zhou was criticized by others, he was still quite proud of himself.

But in just a few days, everything changed.

First, the eldest son's job was lost inexplicably, and then the Wang family, who had always been honest and docile, actually started making trouble to adopt an heir. What surprised him even more was that the Crown Princess was still on Wang's side.

Otherwise, how could this gold-sealed post come by such a coincidence?

In the past, this post would have been enough to show off for a long time, but now it seems like a hot potato.

General Zhou looked at Mrs. Lu and narrowed his eyes slightly. He had been married to Mrs. Lu for many years, and he could tell at a glance that her expression was a bit unnatural. General Zhou immediately understood.

"Foolish woman!" General Zhou looked like he hated iron.

The imperial concubine’s status in southern Xinjiang is becoming more and more secure. The wives of every family are not busy trying to please her, but this foolish woman is stupid enough to offend the imperial concubine!

General Zhou deeply believed that he had revealed the truth. The imperial concubine must not be trying to help the Wang family, but wanted to use this incident to give her family some color.

Hey, he had a good plan. In the future, the eldest son would inherit the Dingyuan General's Mansion, and the second son would adopt the eldest son. Both sons have their own futures and wealth, but this foolish woman messed it up!

Originally, whether or not to adopt an heir and who to adopt as the heir was a private matter for the Zhou family. However, if the eldest concubine was behind the Wang family, I am afraid that even the clan leader and elders would give some to the eldest concubine. For thin noodles, it won’t be up to you at that time.

The more General Zhou thought about it, the more irritated he became, and he said impatiently: "This is something you caused yourself. You should find a way to solve it yourself!"

"Master! You misunderstood, this..."

Lu wanted to defend herself, but General Zhou had already walked away.

Mrs. Lu held the post tightly and slumped down on the chair.

Why? !

The Crown Princess looks down on her sister Hui, but she is willing to support the dull Wang and Zhou Roujia! Why? !

What should she do...does she really have to bow to the Wang family?

The little maid stood aside tremblingly. Seeing that the post was about to be crumpled, the little maid almost cried.

No matter what, this post was stamped with the princess’s gold seal, and it was finally delivered to Wang, who was punished to kneel. When she got the post with obvious wrinkles, Wang kept holding tight My tense heart suddenly relaxed, and tears flowed down uncontrollably.

Yes, she did nothing wrong!

Except for her daughter, she already had nothing. For her daughter, she will not give in this time.

Now that even the Crown Princess is helping her, what else does she have to worry about? !

"Mother." Zhou Roujia handed over the handkerchief worriedly.

Wang wiped her eyes carelessly, took her hand, and said firmly: "Sister Jia, don't worry, mother will not let them send you to the temple!"

Zhou Roujia nodded slightly and leaned on Wang's shoulder.

It’s time for the eldest son to adopt an heir. Once he has an heir, his mother will have someone to rely on.

With this post stamped with the princess's gold seal, Wang took Zhou Roujia out of General Dingyuan's mansion the next day without any hindrance.

Nangong Yue called Xiao Fei to accompany her and kept them for lunch before sending them back. Although Nangong Yue neither talked about Xiao Luan's marriage nor the adoption of the Zhou family this morning, Wang's trip still attracted a lot of attention and speculation.

Especially Jiuyi Lane...

When the old patriarch of the Zhou clan heard that Wang had gone to Bixiaotang early in the morning, he was really shocked.

Actually, after Patriarch Zhou came back from General Dingyuan's Mansion yesterday, he didn't really want to take care of this matter. After all, it was not worthwhile to offend General Dingyuan for the sake of having an heir. But now, I can't help but hesitate.

"No wonder that gentle and taciturn Wang made such a bold move. It turns out he has found a backer!" Elder Zhou couldn't help but murmured to himself with emotion.

"Old Master." Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but said, "Then what should we do?"

Clan Chief Zhou thought for a while and said categorically: "Of course it is to help the Wang family. Except for the Dingyuan General's Mansion branch, our Zhou family has gradually declined over the years. If we can take this opportunity to please The Crown Princess, it is impossible to say that she can earn a good future for her children and grandchildren."

"What the old man said is true." Mrs. Zhou nodded. Moreover, it is easy to add icing on the cake, but I am afraid that the other party will not remember their kindness. It is difficult to send help when the time is right. The Wang family and her daughter are now in a difficult situation, so they will remember their kindness. .

The Crown Princess is now so partial to the Wang family, maybe Zhou Roujia can really marry into the Zhennan Palace. As long as she says a few good words for them in front of the Crown Princess in the future, the Crown Princess will think more of them.

After listening to Madam Zhou’s analysis, Patriarch Zhou thought for a while and had an idea.

That afternoon, he personally went to General Dingyuan's Mansion and told General Zhou righteously that the reason why General Zhou allowed the second bedroom and two bedrooms was because the eldest brother had no heirs to inherit the family. But now, almost twenty years have passed, and the eldest brother still has no heir, which goes against the original intention of General Zhou. If he continues like this, he will be under Jiuquan. He really has no face to face Brother Cong, and proposes that he should do it for him. It is only right for the eldest son to adopt an heir.

Patriarch Zhou burst into tears when he spoke, and his reasons were reasonable...

"...it is now being spread outside that General Zhou deliberately wanted to occupy the Changfang's property, so he neglected the Wang family for many years, leaving the Wang family without a son." Que'er described vividly, listening to De Nangong Yue couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled softly.

It must be said that the Dingyuan General's Mansion is not a tightly guarded mansion. In just a day or two, the news that the eldest family member Wang had asked for an heir had already spread in Luoyue City.

It really has everything.

Que'er is also a know-it-all, and will come back with new news from time to time, which Nangong Yue listens to with great interest.

Huamei also asked with great interest: "Prince Princess, do you think the adoption of the Zhou family can be accomplished?"

"At this point." Nangong Yue said with a smile, "As long as the Wang family doesn't back down from the battle, there is a high probability that this thing can be done... I am afraid that our palace will have a happy event soon."

All the maids in the room laughed, and the atmosphere was warm and happy.

Nangong Yue looked at the engraved glass placed in the corner of the room, "Huamei, go and see if the eldest girl is here. It's time to go out."

Huamei responded, and as soon as she left the house, Xiao Fei came.

So, the two of them went out together to the charity hall.

For the past few days, Xiao Fei would go to the shantang every afternoon, stay for an hour and then come back. However, this was the first time that Nangong Yue went with her. On the way there, she listened to Xiao Fei talking. Jedi said: "Sister-in-law, Xiaoya's energy has improved a lot. I heard from Sister Fu from Shantang that Dr. Yu from Qianjintang would come to see her every day. Not only did she confiscate the consultation money, but also the medicine money. Boss Jin is really a good person."

Xiao Fei said seriously: "Sister-in-law, if we still need a pharmacy to make medicines, let's entrust it to Qianjintang. Boss Jin is so kind, and he will definitely not use fraud in the medicine."

Xiao Fei said seriously, and Nangong Yue nodded with a smile, "Okay."

The carriage arrived at the shantang not long after, and the two of them were welcomed in by Grandma Fu as soon as they got off the carriage.

When Nangong Yue came this time, in addition to rice and noodles, she also brought some snacks and candies, asking Nanny Fu to help distribute them to the children. Then she and Xiao Fei went to visit the injured girl Xiaoya.

Old doctor Yu was changing her medicine. When Nangong Yue arrived, the medicine had been changed, and an apprentice was packing the medicine box for him.

"Mama Fu." When Old Doctor Yu saw them coming in, he said to Mammy Fu, "I have written a new prescription. When I go back, I will have people bring the medicinal materials and boil the medicine on time every day. Just give it to her."

"Thank you, old doctor." Nanny Fu thanked her sincerely and sent him out personally.

Xiaoya already recognized Xiao Fei and sweetly shouted, "Sister."

In addition to a little maid sent by Nangong Yue, there is also a kind-faced nanny in the house. It is said that Boss Jin of Qianjin Hall asked her to stay here to take care of Xiaoya.

After the little maid bowed her knees and saluted, she quickly brought two round stools for the two of them to sit down.

Xiao Fei took out the candy she brought to Xiaoya and personally peeled off the candy wrapper to feed her. Xiao Fei was always serious about her work and even peeled off the candy wrapper with a very serious look. Nangong Yue couldn't help but purse her lips and chuckle.

Baihui said from the side: "Qing Ning, go and pour some glasses of water for the madam and the eldest girl."

"It's Sister Baihui." Qing Ning blessed herself, but did not retreat. Instead, she quietly walked over to the nanny who was sitting aside to mend the girl's clothes. She lowered her voice and said, "Nanny Chen, Please take me to the stove to boil some water, I..." She looked ashamed, "I don't know how to use the earthen stove here."

Nanny Chen hesitated for a moment, then Qing Ning said coquettishly: "Just help me, it's not easy for me to have the opportunity to serve Madam. If Madam is satisfied, maybe I can be promoted to the rank of eldest maid in the future. , Nanny Chen."

Qing Ning is young, only 12 or 13 years old, smart and sweet. After being sent here, he took over all the work and made Nanny Chen smile. Now, Qing Ning just asked her to do this small favor, and Grandma Chen couldn't refuse, both emotionally and rationally.

Nanny Chen glanced at Nangong Yue who was talking softly to Xiaoya. Although she had never seen this lady, the girl had come here several times. Each time she just sat for a while and brought some I gave the candy to Xiaoya, read her a story and then left. I never did anything extra, and it only took time to boil a kettle of water. It should be fine, right?

"Mother Chen." Qing Ning blinked and looked at her, which made her feel soft, so she agreed, "Okay then."

"Thank you, mama!"

Qing Ning smiled, took Nanny Chen's hand affectionately and went out.

The door is closed.

Nangong Yue asked with a smile: "...Xiaoya, do you still remember where your family lives?"

Xiaoya shook her head while eating sweets and said: "In the mountains far away, after my mother gave birth to her younger brother, my father became ill, and then my mother sold Xiaoya and her sister. And then Xiaoya Ya couldn't find her sister. Grandma said that if Xiaoya was obedient, she would sell Xiaoya to a rich family, and she would have enough to eat every day and have new clothes to wear. Xiaoya was very obedient, so she sold Xiaoya to a wealthy family. Ya sold it to a village."

"Xiaoya is so obedient. My sister will give you a reward." Nangong Yue praised her and asked Baihui to take out the snacks she brought.

This is a red bean cake made in the small kitchen of Bixiaotang. The red beans are ground into fine sand and mixed with honey that children like. It tastes sweet. A small cat face is also specially made into a mold. As soon as he took it out, Xiaoya's eyes lit up. Baihui fed her and she ate a whole piece in one go.

Nangong Yue said with a smile: "It turns out that Xiaoya was sold to Zhuangzi. Is it fun in Zhuangzi?"

"We all live in a small courtyard. We are not allowed to go out." Xiaoya felt that it would not be fun for a while, "But we eat a big steamed bun every day! And there are bitter medicines." At this point, she His little face wrinkled up, "If you don't take the medicine, there will be no steamed buns to eat. Xiaoya doesn't want to go hungry, so she takes the medicine obediently."

Nangong Yue noticed that she said "we" and asked, "Besides Xiaoya, are there any other brothers and sisters?"

Xiaoya chewed red bean cake and nodded vigorously.

Nangong Yue lowered her eyes slightly, her tone became softer, and asked: "Then why did Xiaoya sneak out of the village?"

As if thinking of something terrible, Xiaoya trembled all over, shook her head vigorously and said: "No! Xiaoya didn't run away, Xiaoya is very good and obedient... But Xiaoya hurts, it hurts so much."

Nangong Yue hugged her, patted her back gently, and said, "Sister knows that Xiaoya is very well-behaved. It's all the bad people's fault. It's the bad people who are bad."

Nangong Yue coaxed in a low voice. The little girl was still young after all. After a while, she burst into laughter again and ate two pieces of red bean cake in a row.

At this time, the door opened, and Nanny Chen came back after helping to boil the water. She observed it without leaving any trace, and saw Xiaoya happily eating red bean cake, and a maid holding a handkerchief gently He wiped the debris from her lips.

Happy and happy.

Not long after, Qing Ning brought tea, and then Grandma Fu came back.

Nangong Yue stood up, said goodbye to Xiaoya, promised to bring cakes to her next time, and went out with Nanny Fu. They went to see other children, and finally asked Baihui to leave two hundred taels of silver for Nanny Fu, which was enough to maintain the expenses of this small charity for two years.

Nanny Fu accepted it gratefully, hoping that the more noble people like this the better, so that more children could be saved.

Nangong Yue stayed for about an hour before returning home with Xiao Fei.

Sitting on the carriage returning home, Nangong Yue lowered her eyes and thought deeply. Xiaoya said that Zhuangzi looked at these children so closely. She probably didn’t run out by herself. In other words, Xiaoya would appear in Shanxi. It's not a coincidence.

Nangong Yue couldn't help but frown, until Xiao Fei asked: "Sister-in-law, is there something wrong?"

Nangong Yue sighed softly. There were some things that she couldn't tell Xiao Fei for the time being, so she just said: "Little Ya is really pitiful. I only hope that the country will be peaceful and the people are safe. If every family can have enough to eat, how can their parents be willing to sell themselves? Where is the child."

Xiao Fei didn't think much and nodded in agreement.

Yes!

It is easy to write the four words "Guotai Tai Minan", but it is too difficult to actually do it.

Just like now, in order to prevent the great country from being invaded by foreigners, and in order to prevent countless families from being destroyed, the eldest brother is leading the soldiers to fight in a **** battle!

Her eldest brother is so brave, which makes her proud!

Xiao Fei secretly decided that when she sees her eldest brother again next time, she will no longer think that he is a reckless man!

The carriage entered Bixiaotang from the East Street gate, Xiao Fei returned to Yuebiju, and Baihui went to the front yard under Nangong Yue's instructions, and asked Zhu Xing to have someone search for the person Xiaoya mentioned near Luoyue City. Zhuangzi.

After Nangong Yue entered the house, before she could take a sip of tea, Huamei came over and said that Mrs. Qiao came an hour ago and asked to see King Zhennan, but because King Zhennan hadn’t come back yet, she was There was a commotion in the front yard, and someone insisted on going to the military camp to call the King of Zhennan back. Because Nangong Yue was not in the house either, the maids and women in front could not stop him at all.

"Later there was nothing we could do, so the housekeeper sent a boy to the military camp." Huamei said with an unreasonable look, "Now Mrs. Qiao is staying in the prince's study and refuses to leave."

The maids in the room looked at each other.

They are all used to Mrs. Qiao coming over to make trouble from time to time, but now it seems that it has become worse?

"Concubine, you have to go..." Huamei wanted to ask if she should call Mrs. Qiao over. She was afraid that if Mrs. Qiao made such a fuss, the prince would blame the concubine for not being a good homemaker when she came back.

"No need." Nangong Yue said nonchalantly, "The front yard belongs to the front yard, and the inner house belongs to the inner house..." She smiled slightly and continued, "Mrs. Qiao is making trouble in the front yard. If I continue I have to interfere in matters in the front yard, and the prince will blame me for meddling too much."

As the saying goes, there is a difference between inside and outside. The mistress of any mansion will not go beyond that and interfere in the affairs of the outer courtyard.

Moreover, Nangong Yue did not want to pay attention to the Qiao family's affairs from the bottom of her heart.

If she has this energy, she might as well read more books.

"Just let people keep an eye on the study room." Nangong Yue gave a casual order and went to the clean room.

After washing and wiping her black hair until it was half dry, new news finally came from the study, "...the Crown Princess, Miss Qiao escaped from Yaoshu Concubine with her maid. His current whereabouts are unknown."

Nangong Yue was slightly surprised and asked: "What's going on?"

Quie'er sorted through the information he got and reported it in detail: "It is said that Miss Qiao was punished several times by the female teacher for disobeying the discipline in Yaoshu Women's Home, and this time she was imprisoned again. Then, Miss Qiao went on a hunger strike and fainted, so the gentleman in the women's courtyard had to go and ask for a doctor. Miss Qiao took advantage of the chaos and escaped from the women's courtyard with the maid."

"This..." Ying'er said dumbfounded, "Miss Qiao is really brave."

Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows slightly. It was not peaceful outside now. She, a girl, dared to walk around with her maid. I don’t know where she got the courage. It seems that being kidnapped by the Nanliang people did not teach her a lesson.

The last time Xiao Fei traveled from southern Xinjiang to the royal capital, she was safe and sound because of good luck. However, the second princess who also ran away from the palace ended up with her innocence completely ruined. Now... I don’t know if Qiao Ruolan has this Got lucky.

Quie'er continued: "...the female concubine also went to look for it, but found nothing, so they had to send someone over to inform Mrs. Qiao. Mrs. Qiao was making trouble at the prince's place, blaming the prince for insisting on sending Miss Qiao to be married. Shu Nuyuan will let her disappear."

Nangong Yue sneered and said, "I'm afraid the prince is angry."

"Prince Princess, you are really good at predicting things." Que'er said jokingly, "The prince said that if he allows Miss Qiao to go to Mingqing Temple, nothing will happen. Mrs. Qiao is in the study. We were crying and making noise, begging the prince to send troops to go. The prince just ordered people to announce the arrival of General Tang."

Nangong Yue tilted her head slightly to show that she understood.

These matters in the Qiao family are really troublesome, so let King Zhennan deal with the headache himself.
