200 Rune Water(1/2)
After hearing that Chu Qianchen was not bullied by the queen, Shen breathed a sigh of relief, but her brows were still slightly frowning.
The object of her dissatisfaction was not only the queen, but also the lady.
The queen was so arrogant that she was sent to Prince Chen's mansion and kept saying that she wanted to give the palace maid she gave as a concubine. However, as Chu Qianchen's grandmother, the grandmother did not say a word to her granddaughter at all, and she relied on her elders to suppress her.
Of course, Shen knew the grandmother’s intentions.
As a daughter of the Chu family, it was natural to make contributions to the family with a family marriage of a comparable family.
The mansions of the royal family and nobles in the capital were also like this, so in order for his father to agree to marry into the Yongding Marquis' Mansion, the princess had to marry a foreign country when necessary.
While enjoying family blessings, a person must also make contributions to his family.
But Chu Qianchen is different.
As soon as Chu Qianchen was born, she was transferred by Chu Lingxiao, which made her suffer from Jiang Minshan's advice since she was a child. Over the years, the Chu family not only did not do anything for Chu Qianchen, but also owed Chu Qianchen.
But in this way, the grandma actually felt that Chu Qianchen should contribute to the Chu family!
Shen closed his eyes, suppressed his anger, held Chu Qianchen's hand and praised: "Sister Chen, you did the right thing, don't pay attention to your grandmother!"
Although my daughter is young, she is far more clear than some people who have lived for most of her life.
"That's it." Chu Qianchen boasted, took the tea cup handed over by Dongmei, and personally served Shen's tea.
Shen raised his hand, gently stroked Chu Qianchen's cheek, and said seriously: "Sister Chen, the queen probably won't give up like that..."
Behind the queen is the emperor. The emperor is too afraid of King Chen and will never stop because of one or two failures.
Now, King Chen is not in the capital, which is the best opportunity for the emperor to suppress Prince Chen’s Mansion.
Chu Qianchen naturally understood it too.
To the emperor, the Chen Palace was originally like an iron bucket, but now her existence is like an iron bucket suddenly has a crack. She has become the weakness of the Chen Palace and is also a breakthrough in the emperor's eyes.
However, Chu Qianchen was not worried at all. In her previous life, she might have been the weakness of Prince Chen’s Mansion, but she is definitely not now.
"It's okay." Chu Qianchen said confidently, his phoenix eyes seemed to be flowing like a gem.
Shen just reminded Chu Qianchen and did not continue to persuade him. She knew that this girl knew it.
She thought that Chu Qianchen had just come out of the palace and asked, "You haven't had lunch yet?"
Before Chu Qianchen could answer, Shen ordered Dongmei to tell her a series of dishes, all of which were Chu Qianchen's favorite dishes.
Chu Qianchen felt warm and said, "I used it with my mother in the palace. Mom, don't always remember me, I will be fine, you should be kind to yourself."
Chu Qianchen just deliberately sued Mrs. Chu again. She had made up her mind anyway and complained to the mother and son from time to time, and then took the opportunity to persuade Shen Zhi and Li.
Shen understood, but she looked around and said, "My body is so big. If you don't believe me, take my pulse."
Chu Qianchen really clenched Shen's pulse and nodded slightly: "No, I haven't stayed up late recently."
Madam Wang couldn't help laughing at her side, and the mother and daughter's position seemed to have been reversed.
In Chu Qianchen's smile, Shen changed the subject abruptly and turned the topic to Gu Zhiyan, "I went to see Qi Niang a few days ago. Your third aunt said that after taking the talisman water that day, she slept and then subsided. It was fine. She just didn't like to go out these days."
"Your aunt felt sorry for her and caught two little cats that had just been full moon. One of them looked very similar to your moon."
The two sisters Shen and Chen Wan have always been close to each other and talk about everything. In private, the two sisters also said some kind words, and Chen Wan sighed a few words:
"Big sister, hey, I look at Sister Huang'er's cautious look now, and there is no such thing as the Chu girl's grandmother. She can run for Qi Niang, which means that she is not bad by nature."
"After all, it's a child you raised by your own hands, how could he be bad in nature... She might just be shocked by this incident, and there are some."
Chen Wan didn't say much, but just sighed three or four words casually.
But it still had some impact on Shen, which made her feel even more complicated whenever she thought about Chu Qianhuang.
Shen took a sip of tea and said, "After Qi Niang was frightened, I asked your grandmother to find someone to investigate this matter. That day, Sister Huang happened to run into this matter on the street. She appeared so coincidental..."
Also, the timing of the Fu Shui was even more coincidental, as if it was prepared for a long time. The various coincidences combined made Shen think more.
If it were in the past, Shen would never have suspected Chu Qianhuang, but now, she had to speculate on the child with the greatest malice.
The people from the Duke's Mansion left Beijing and went to Manchun Building to investigate the matter, and they investigated it more carefully than Chen Wan.
The results found are similar to those found by Mama Rong.
Furong did suffer from the disease of flowers and willows, but she was not driven away by Manchunlou, but she ran away by herself. The madam originally planned to sell Furong to a kiln at a low price.
The madam also said that after Furong escaped, she had sent someone to search in the town, but she gave up without finding anyone. Furong was sick and couldn't sell it for a long time.
When the people from the Prince Jing’s Mansion went to investigate, the madam was afraid of causing trouble, so she said that they drove Furong away.
Chu Qianhuang happened to pass there that day. She ran to Duke Mu's mansion, but before entering the door, she went back. On the way back, she sat in a teahouse and happened to see Qi Niang running over alone.
Mrs. Shen talked about these things to Chu Qianchen.
Since Chen Wan got sick from Qi Niang, she has always believed in these genius words. She bought a lot of talismans and did a lot of rituals, sometimes useful and sometimes useless. Shen has long been used to it.
Originally, when something happened to Qi Niang, Shen wanted to tell Chu Qianchen, but Chu Qianchen was busy learning to provide for the middle school and do internal affairs in those days. She had just passed the door and it was not easy for her to gain a foothold in her husband's house. Later, Qi Niang also had a fever and everything was fine, so Shen didn't say anything more.
Chu Qianchen pondered and asked, "Where is the Fu Shui?"
Shen also checked Fu Shui's affairs, gave Dongmei a wink, and asked her to say it.
Dongmei replied: "Princess, I personally went to Wuwei Temple to ask. It was indeed the fu water that the eldest girl asked for from there. The Taoist priest there said that the third princess's illness was indeed cured by Taoist priest Zhixuan. However, the master of the temple sealed the mouth and did not allow them to say privately that it must have been the Queen's explanation."
For a Taoist temple, curing the third princess's illness is worth bragging about. If it weren't for fear of the emperor and the empress, Wuwei Temple wouldn't be so low-key.
When the little Taoist priest talked to Dongmei, he felt quite aggrieved, thinking that Taoist Master Xuan was much more capable than Taoist Master Xuanjing, but the reputation and incense of Wuwei Temple were not as good as Yuan Qing Temple.
Chu Qianchen thought for a moment and said, "Mom, I want to go and see Qi Niang."
She also wanted to see the so-called Fu Shui. Qi Niang's illness is extraordinary, but she is a heart disease. She believes that there are gods and Buddhas in the nine heavens, but there are more people in this world who pretend to be gods and ghosts and make mysterious things. She has lived for two lifetimes and has seen countless prescriptions. She has never seen such "effective" Fu Shui.
Chu Qianchen said it was wind or rain, and wanted to go to the Prince Jing's Mansion immediately, but was amused by Shen.
"No hurry, I'm leaving after lunch, Qi Niang's illness is not an emergency."
As a result, under Shen's persuasion, Chu Qianchen changed his heavy makeup, changed into a new dress, and combed it again with a lightweight sling.
This is not the first time Shen gave Chu Qianchen clothes. Chu Qianchen didn't care at first, until after the mother and daughter got on the Zhuhe car, she accidentally noticed that there were several signs of needles on Shen's left finger, and her thoughts moved.
She thought that the clothes she had never worn before, but now she noticed that the clothes should be made of new ones, and there was no smell of camphor wood that had been kept in the camphor wood box for many years, so the materials were clustered with new ones.
This was made for her by Shen.
This was the first time she had got clothes sewn by her mother.
"Mom," she leaned against Shen's shoulder with a smile, "Your hands are so coincidental! My girl-red is not good..."
As she said that, she touched her head again. Her hair bun was combed by Shen himself. It was obviously just a sect, but it was much more delicate than her.
Mrs. Shen gave her the pink velvet flower on her sideburns, "If you want to learn, I will teach you next time."
"But there is a sewing room in the royal palace, so you don't have to do everything yourself. Just do some sewing and thread for King Chen occasionally."
Chu Qianchen obediently responded, but Amber was hard to describe. He really couldn't bear to tell Shen that there was actually no needle and thread room in their palace.
Amid the whispers of the mother and daughter, the Prince Jing County Mansion arrived.
Shen came temporarily. Strictly speaking, it was a bit rude, but she was the eldest sister of the princess, and no one in the princess's palace carcass would care about this at all. The servant immediately reported to Shen Wan happily.
Shen and Chu Qianchen were taken to the main courtyard of the royal palace.
"Sister Chen, you are really mean." Shen Wan pulled one of Chu Qianchen's hands and smiled affectionately.
She only thought that Chu Qianchen had accidentally learned about Gu Zhiyan from Shen, so she came to the county prince's mansion to visit Gu Zhiyan.
Chu Qianchen smiled slightly and said, "Qian Niang is my cousin."
Shen Wan has always relied on subjective preferences in dealing with people. In the past, she thought Chu Qianchen was very thoughtful, so she didn't like her anywhere. Now it's different. The more she looks at Chu Qianchen, the more she likes her.
"Qi Niang must be happy to know that you are coming to see her. She is inside." Shen Wan's smile became deeper, and she took Chu Qianchen and Shen to the green yarn cabinet behind.
Incense is lit in the corner, and the green shade outside the window reflects into the room, making it look cool and comfortable.
Gu Zhiyan, wearing a pink silk shirt, was lying on the couch, and she lost weight, which made her big eyes bigger and darker, but she was a little dull and her eyes were dull.
Shen felt very distressed, "Seven Niang looked like she was getting thinner than me when she came back."
Shen Wan frowned and said, "She has a bad appetite these days and hasn't eaten a few bites for lunch."
"Auntie, sister." Gu Zhiyan obediently called Shen and Chu Qianchen.
The little girl looked obviously in poor spirits and was depressed, like a small flower that lacked water, making the adults feel more and more pity.
If Furong was still alive, Chen Wan really wanted to kill her with her own hands and let her die so gently. It was so cheap that she would be!
Shen pulled Chen Wan to sit by the window, deliberately diverting her sister's attention: "Awan, have you not had a good sleep these days? Look at you, your eyes are dark..."
Chen Wan touched her face and sighed, "I'm worried that Qi Niang will not be able to sleep soundly at night."
She hasn't had a good rest these days and is always worried about her daughter. Although she has a wet nurse and a maid to take care of her, she is still worried and gets up at least twice in the middle of the night to see her daughter.
Shen Shi Xun said: "Qi Niang is sick, so you should pay more attention to your health."
In fact, everyone understands these principles, but when things happen to them and those they care about, no one can do that rationally.
Chu Qianchen glanced at the sisters and silently withdrew his gaze.
She knew that Shen did not tell Chen Wan that she was the miracle doctor of Jishitang, and even Duke Mu and Duke Mu's wife did not tell her, although she vaguely felt that Duke Mu seemed to have speculated.
If the other party didn't ask, Chu Qianchen didn't say it, so now, she won't take the initiative to say it.
The emperor was too afraid of the prince. For the emperor, it was only a trivial matter to give a marriage to the prince who could not be controlled, but giving a miracle doctor to the prince would be completely different. The latter would probably stimulate the emperor again, making the emperor suspicious, and even doing something beyond reason.
It is related to the prince, Chu Qianchen would rather have less than more.
Chu Qianchen walked to Gu Zhiyan's couch and sat down. She touched Gu Zhiyan's forehead first, and then lit her vein without any trace, frowned slightly.
She carefully observed Gu Zhiyan's complexion, rubbed her head, and asked with a smile: "Qianniang, do you miss me?"
Gu Zhiyan blinked first before slowly answering: "I want to!"
