Chapter 16
Lu Junwan was very displeased when he listened, and scolded: "Ms. Lu Jiang, what are you talking about? Why don't you hurry up and wait in the mother's courtyard?"

"Just get used to her."

Jiang Yunqing refused to leave, and continued to say yin and yang with a half-smile:
"To say that Xuandu Temple is indeed an excellent place for a tryst, I wonder if Yan Chao also wants to go there?"

Qu Yunchu smiled faintly.

She had the most memories of Lu Sanniang's husband in her mind.

On weekdays, he and his original owner dislike each other. The original owner disliked him for being a good-looking man, but he resigned himself to marrying into the Lu family, and others jokingly called him Lu Jiang.

Jiang Yunqing, on the other hand, looked down upon her original intention of marrying into the Lu family by begging for nothing, and slandered her everywhere.

Therefore, when the two meet, they have to fight.

On the surface, it seems that he is fighting for Lu Wenqian, but in fact he is just a master who adapts to the wind.

Just because Lu Wenqian is in charge, he can get more benefits by pleasing him.

"It's been a while since I've seen my sister-in-law. I heard that Yun Qing came back specially for Yan Chao's wedding. He came back just in time. If he came back later, he would be able to catch up with the couple and their children's full moon party. ."

Also imitating the tone of the original owner, Qu Yunchu said with a faint smile:
"I don't know whether the nephew Yanchao, whom my sister-in-law cares about, will go to Xuandu to visit, but he has just become the head of the family and is newlywed, so he probably won't have time to go out of the house."

As soon as he heard that Lu Yanchao had become the head of the family, Jiang Yunqing's face darkened, and he did not dare to comment on the two people's affairs anymore. He hesitated and said: "Then...then he is indeed busy."

After that, he quickly scratched his head and ran out.

"Ouch, I have to go to my mother's courtyard to say hello quickly."

Seeing his hurried away figure, Lu Junwan's expression darkened, and he turned back to apologize to Qu Yunchu:

"Zhiyi, don't be as knowledgeable as him, he has always worn tofu with a ponytail, so I can't lift it."

Qu Yunchu knew that she also looked down on her husband, but her parents' order and matchmaker's words were irresistible, so she didn't mention her sad matter again.

After Tian Ran smiled, she deliberately changed the subject:

"Why did the old lady suddenly become ill?"

"I heard from the girls in the yard that they were frightened at night, and they saw Chunhua and Qiuyi in the middle of the night."

Lu Junwan sighed sadly: "Perhaps these two girls have been with their mother for many years, and it must be uncomfortable to see them being killed by the stick."

Qu Yunchu choked and coughed slightly when he learned that Chunhua and Qiuyi had been to Jiang Rui's courtyard.

If these two were really ordered by Jiang Rui to murder Lu Wenqian, and Jiang Rui failed to protect them, they should also have a lot of resentment towards the old lady.

Why did you let Jiang Rui go but only wanted Lu Wenqian's life?
The old lady has never believed in gods and Buddhas. It is not much easier for them to take the old lady's life than to take Lu Wenqian's life.

Could it be that they have something in Jiang Rui's hands?
Just as she was wondering, Lu Junwan suddenly interrupted her thoughts.

"Zhiyi, what are you thinking about?"

"Oh, nothing."

Qu Yunchu looked back at her: "Is it still quiet in Sanniang's Courtyard last night?"

"cough."

Lu Junwan blushed for a while: "It's not a big deal at all, but that bastard Lu Jiangshi came back at night and made a fuss."

Qu Yunchu heard it clearly, silently covered the corner of his laughing lips, and didn't ask any more questions as he understood, and then told her about writing the prescription.

Lu Junwan asked someone to prepare pen and paper, and when he mentioned his second brother, he had many more doubts.

Taking advantage of the time when Qu Yunchu was writing the prescription, he murmured to himself: "Second brother, what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd? He has been in charge of the family affairs for many years, and he is familiar with all aspects. If you don't accept it, Zensheng entrusted the family affairs to Yan Chao?"

Her eyes sank, and her eyes revealed incomparable worry:
"Yan Chao's intolerable temper will probably cause trouble sooner or later."

Qu Yunchu didn't have the time to speculate on the crazy critic's thoughts, so he handed the written prescription to her, and just responded casually:

"Maybe your second brother has his concerns."

"Ah."

Lu Junwan responded lightly, without further entanglement, and said in a warm voice: "Mother is still sick, so I won't accompany you there, you should come back earlier."

Then he told Ji Zhen and Keyan: "Take good care of the second young lady."

The two quickly replied: "Yes."

"It's just a trip to the Taoist temple, nothing will happen."

Qu Yunchu patted her shoulder gently, said goodbye and went to the outer courtyard to get on the carriage.

The snow on the road had already begun to melt, and the wide wheels were running extremely smoothly on the road, and there was a heater in the carriage. As soon as he got into the carriage, Qu Yunchu couldn't help but doze off.

But Ms. Yan Zhi was tired these days, so she didn't have the heart to disturb her.

Ten miles out of the city, Qu Yunchu was sound asleep when he was suddenly awakened by a shrill cry.

She opened her sleepy eyes, opened the corner of the car curtain to look, and saw a funeral procession coming from the opposite side.

Even the Lu family's carriage gave way.

Ji Zhen, who was riding a horse, looked at the young lady poking her head out, and said with an embarrassing expression:
"Please don't be surprised, young lady. The coffin in front is the coffin of Qu Yunchu, a young female celestial master who is well-known in our Tanzhou city. I heard that she died in a fire in Linxian a few months ago. The news came back to Yanyang City. It was not easy for people to rush to the funeral and return home, so I made way for them on my own initiative."

When Qu Yunchu saw the big black coffin passing by, he felt a little sad:
"You also know Qu Tianshi from Tanzhou City?"

"Slightly heard."

Ji Zhen replied: "Although I don't know where it came from, but in the past two years, I have often heard people mention that there is an immortal female Taoist doctor in Tanzhou City who has saved countless lives and healed the wounded. The villain also admires it very much."

Qu Yunchu's eyes still stayed on the black coffin that was going away.

The crying woman and child next to the black coffin made her unable to let go for a long time.

The familiar thin figures of the old man and the young man brought many past events to mind, and his eyes gradually became wet with tears.

"Aniang, Amei."

She cried out silently in her heart.

The coffin bearers were her own mother, Wei Shi, and her younger sister, Qu A'a, who was less than five years old.

Speaking of which, her fate is not much different from that of the current owner of this body.

Her father, Qu Huasheng, and the original owner's adoptive father were both palace doctors. They were both imprisoned and executed for committing crimes five years ago.

If he and Master Niubi hadn't arrived in Beijing in time, even A Niang and the infant girl would have been implicated.

In fact, long before his father entered the palace, Master Niubi had approved a hexagram for him, and determined that his behavior was a dangerous hexagram.

Helplessly, her father was a headstrong man, so he could not listen to even half of the persuasion, so he insisted on entering the palace.

Qu Yunchu understands his father's disposition even more, his personality is flamboyant and stubborn, he likes to show off his talent and learning, he is not suitable to live in that deep palace at all, so he often writes letters to advise his father to be cautious in his words and deeds in the palace.

Unexpectedly, he did not avoid his own fate after all.

Watching the mourning team gradually disappear, Qu Yunchu felt lonely in his heart.

I thought I could help my mother take care of my sister after this visit, but now it is extremely difficult to even recognize them.

After looking at her coffin in trance for a long time, she sighed and waved to Ji Zhen:
"Turn around and go to Qujia Village."
