215 Yunyi(1/2)
There was even more chaos in Rongfu Hall.
Madam Wang used salt for the grandma and gave her a sense of relief. After a while, the grandma recovered and her face turned pale.
"Ling Yu, what did your elder brother do?" said the grandma in a trembling voice.
In the morning, the grandmother knew about the eldest son's return to Beijing. She thought that the eldest son had an errand, so it was natural that he would go directly to the palace when he returned to Beijing. Even later, she saw that the Chen Prince's Mansion was sealed by the Jinyiwei, and she also thought about whether it was the eldest son's credit.
She was waiting for her eldest son to return home, wanting to celebrate the contributions of the eldest son, but who thought that the eldest son did not come back, and what she was waiting for was the news that he was taken to the heavenly prison.
The lady became more and more panicked as she thought about it. She looked at Master Chu Er at a loss, "You have to help your elder brother!"
In the room, all the servants were sent out, leaving only the Grandmaster and the masters and wives of the other three wards of the Marquis' Mansion, with a solemn atmosphere.
When Chu Lingyu saw that the lady was fine, he felt a little relieved.
Then, he frowned deeply again and said angrily with some annoyance: "Mom, this is the emperor's personal order. How can I help?! I don't know what the elder brother did..."
"I just want to find out the news, so there must be a way."
Chu Lingyu also tried to inquire about the news, but all of them looked secretive and refused to say more.
Chu Lingting and Chu Lingtao's faces were not very good-looking, and they all hated Chu Lingxiao for causing trouble for the family.
The title is a long house, and the benefits are all the long houses. However, if the long house causes trouble, it will cause trouble to the other houses.
The women including Liu were even more nervous. They had never experienced such a thing.
The third wife, Yu, said stutteringly: "Mother, the Imperial Concubine and the Second Prince..."
She wanted to ask if she was going to visit Concubine Chu and Gu Nanzhao to find out the news, but she couldn't continue to say it halfway.
It’s already this time, and it’s only one hour before the curfew. Even if the Madam is handing over the sign to the palace now, she will definitely not have time to enter the palace today.
Liu knew that the grandmother was partial to Chu Lingxiao, so she didn't dare to say that Chu Lingxiao was wrong, so she could only target Chu Qianchen and complained: "Mother, Sister Chen was also in the palace at that time. She was Princess Chen, so why didn't she plead for the uncle? The uncle is her biological father!"
The third wife and the others also nodded frequently.
Yes. Instead of making things difficult for them, the Grandmadame might as well go to Prince Chen’s Mansion to find Chu Qianchen.
The lady glared at Liu coldly, her lips tightly pursed and she didn't say anything.
Is it still for her to say such a simple truth?!
The problem is that Chu Qianchen just discovered her life experience and is still angry now, so she couldn't take the initiative to plead for Chu Lingxiao.
The grandma calmed down and asked again: "Ling Yu, what crime will your elder brother convict?"
Chu Lingyu also inquired about this, and his face looked even more ugly.
He said with difficulty: "Ninety-one will win the title."
These seven words seemed to have exhausted all his strength.
It seemed as if a bucket of cold water fell down on his head, and the lady was almost in a palpitations.
If this title passed down by the ancestors is gone...
Just thinking about it, she felt dizzy again and almost passed by again.
Madam Wang was quick-witted and sniffed salt under the Madam's nose.
The lady took a few deep breaths in a row before her breath gradually calmed down.
Chu Lingyu hesitated and said, "Mom, sister-in-law..."
Fifteen years ago, the Chu family encountered a disaster and was almost seized. It was only through Duke Mu's mansion that he retained the title.
So now, can it be...
The lady raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, and the forehead felt ache.
Since the day Chu Qianchen returned to the door for three dynasties, Shen took Chu Yunmu back to his parents' home with him, and he has not yet returned to the Marquis' Mansion.
Originally, the grandmother wanted to be cold in Shen so that she would not be able to show off her power in the Chu family if she thought it was the Marquis. Who would not be a daughter-in-law who lowered her head in front of her mother-in-law? Only Shen had never been soft-hearted in front of her mother-in-law in recent years, and she had to reveal the old story.
But now, seeing that the emperor was about to issue an order to seize the title, the eldest son suffered in the prison, the grandmother didn't care about anything else.
She gritted her teeth and said resolutely: "Hurry up and prepare the car, I'll go to Duke Mu's mansion now."
The carriage drove out of the Marquis' Mansion after two cups of tea, and Liu also went with him. The grandmother also warned Liu specifically, wanting her to be small against Shen.
Mrs. Ren thought well, but she didn't expect that she had no chance to enter and was turned away.
"Madam, the concierge of the Duke's Mansion said that we would like to thank the guests in a closed door today."
Madam Wang came back in shame and passed the message truthfully.
Her face was not very good-looking, and the Duke's mansion's refusal was too direct, and she was too lazy to even give excuses on the scene.
This shows that they know why the Chu family came.
Madam: "…"
As the in-laws of Duke Mu's mansion, the time when the Madam came here was not a guest of honor? This was the first time she was rejected like this.
The first reaction of the Grandma was to return to the Marquis’ Mansion, but she didn’t say it after all.
She almost crushed the flowing beads in her hand and said to Liu: "You go."
Liu's face changed a little, and he responded unwillingly.
She got off the carriage and took Madam Zhang to knock on the door of the Duke's Mansion.
After a while, Liu came back, and the same was true. The Duke's Mansion closed the door to thank the guests today.
The Grandma was stubbornly waiting outside the Duke's Mansion, hoping that the gate of the Duke's Mansion would open.
However, she waited and waited, and the gate of the Duke's Mansion was always closed.
The uneasiness in the Madam's heart became stronger and stronger as the sun sets.
Liu reminded in a crooked manner: "Mother, it's almost a curfew..."
"..." The Madam's heart seemed to have been poked several holes, and the cold wind whirled through her heart, making her heart cool.
In the past, no matter what happened to the Marquis’ Mansion, there was a guarantee for Duke Mu’s Mansion, which was also the confidence of the Marquis’ Mansion.
Didn’t even care about Duke Mu’s Mansion this time?!
The lady opened her mouth slightly, and she couldn't help but lift the curtains and looked at the gate of the Duke's Mansion. The red lacquer door was still closed with no sign of opening.
The lady said powerlessly: "Go back."
She came with anticipation and left in panic. That night, the lady fell ill.
The Marquis was imprisoned, and the Grandma fell ill. The two pillars of the Marquis' mansion fell down, making the mansion even more lost. People from the second, third and fourth rooms were waiting to inquire about the news everywhere, but now the Chu family was on the verge of the storm, and no one dared to have any connection with them, and they were all vague.
Even Chu Yunyi, who was studying in the Imperial College, was greatly affected and was stopped outside the classroom by a group of people.
"Isn't this Brother Chu?! I haven't seen each other for a few days. How are Brother Chu doing lately?"
Shi Zice smiled and shook the folding fan, looking suave. Behind him, four or five people, including Yi Cheng, blocked Chu Yunyi's way forward.
Before Chu Yunyi could answer, Shi Zice asked and answered: "Hey, look, I can't speak. Ling Zun is still in the Heavenly Prison. Brother Chu, can you be well?"
Anyway, they had already broken up with Chu Yunyi outside the Yongding Marquis' Mansion last time, and Shi Zice was too lazy to pretend to be a good friend, so he did not hide the sarcastic smile on his face.
Chu Yunyi's eyes were full of anger, and his hands were clenched into fists.
If it were the past, he would have said a sentence: A good dog will not block the way.
But now, when his family changes drastically, he can no longer follow his own personality.
Chu Yunyi didn't know what happened in the imperial study yesterday. Even the uncles at home didn't tell him too much about his father's affairs, and just asked him to study hard in the Imperial College.
Not only did the family members tell me, Chu Yunyi also heard some rumors outside, and probably knew that his father had been to the prison because of false accusation of King Chen. The fact that the Jinyiwei surrounded King Chen’s mansion yesterday was also caused by his father.
When Chu Yunyi first heard about it, his mind was almost blank.
My father was so cruel. He first transferred Chu Qianchen when he was born, but now he made such a fuss. He wanted to kill his daughter... The things he did consumed Chu Yunyi's last bit of respect for him.
Before coming to the Imperial College this morning, the Madam took his hand and said to him earnestly: "Brother Yi, you are the Changsun, and the Chu family's generation depends entirely on you."
"Brother Yi, you have to be successful."
The lady looked ten years older, and Chu Yunyi had never seen her grandmother look like she was tired.
Grandma is right, he is the eldest grandson, and the family can only rely on him in the future.
It's time for him to grow up!
Chu Yunyi pursed his thin lips, and said nothing after all. He bypassed Shi Zice and others and wanted to leave.
However, Shi Zice and the others were deliberately looking for trouble, so how could they let Chu Yunyi leave easily?
Yicheng took two steps to the right, blocking Chu Yunyi's way forward again, and said sarcastically: "Chu Yunyi, do you have bad eyes or bad ears? Didn't you hear Brother Zi Ce talking to you?!"
Shi Zice slowly shook the folding fan and said sarcastically: "Brother Chu, since you are not feeling well, you should see the doctor. Why do you come to the Imperial College? Isn't this a misleading person or yourself?!"
The followings brought by Shi Zice immediately spoke to him:
“That’s it.”
"Since you are sick, you should drop out of school and go home to recuperate!"
To be continued...
