Chapter 82
Jiang Fuyue picked up the small mirror beside the bed and looked at it. She saw that the eyes of the person in the mirror were red and swollen, like walnuts, which was really... funny.

Jiang Fuyue didn't look at it any more and pushed the mirror down with a "pop" sound.

Jingzhe went away and came back again. When he came back, the handkerchief in his hand became bulging: "I have asked someone to prepare ice. Madam, don't worry. Apply it carefully overnight and it will be fine."

Jiang Fuyue nodded.

She closed her eyes and lay down, and Jingzhe gently applied the mask to her eyes.

The room was quiet for a while, and then Jiang Fuyue suddenly said, "It's been a while since my third sister went back. I guess it's time to kiss her, right?"

Jingzhe was stunned for a moment, and the movements of his hands followed suit: "... I guess so."

Guyu frowned and said, "Madam, you still have the mind to take care of the third girl! She is -"

Before she could finish her words, Jingzhe glared hard at her and immediately fell silent.

"Yes, she is Mrs. Jiang's daughter." Jiang Fuyue curled her lips, and there was an inexplicable chill in her voice, "It's hard to say for a father, but as a mother, no matter how you treat others, you should treat your own children. Even when we are of flesh and blood, we will always do our best to think about them, and even sacrifice ourselves when necessary."

After a pause, Jiang Fuyue continued: "Let's see what this Mrs. Jiang can do for her daughter."

"Madam, what do you mean..."

"Mrs. Jiang is the chief culprit, so naturally she must sacrifice her life." Jiang Fuyue's tone was very natural, as if she was just talking about an insignificant matter.

Her mother was tortured so much that she left.

Then Mrs. Jiang, let alone run away.

Jingzhe and Gu Yu looked up at each other, then silently lowered their eyes.

"Girl, be careful and hurt yourself carefully," Jingzhe said slowly, with a calm tone, as if he had made up his mind, "If something happens, ask the slave to take care of it."

After all, the girl is an official's wife, how could she do such a thing.

Besides, if the incident is revealed, the rest of the girl's life will be ruined.

But she is not afraid and has no worries.

She had a lowly life. She was almost sold into a land of fireworks when she was young. Fortunately, with the help of her wife, she was able to live where she is today.

Without his wife, she would never have grown up.

Every day now is stolen.

What's more, without the girl by his side, Gu Yu can still take care of things, but he will have to work harder in the future.

Jingzhe thought so, and his eyes became firmer.

Guyu on the side bit his lip and said: "Girl, tell me to do it! Jingzhe acted safely, and with her by my side, I can rest in peace!"

Hearing this, Jiang Fuyue smiled: "You two are not afraid, so how can I be afraid?"

She will personally send Mrs. Jiang on her way.

She closed her eyes, her face was calm, and the huge waves in her heart were unknown.

No sleep for one night.

The next day, Jingzhe and Gu Yu were forced to rest by her, and Shi Yi and Shi San followed her.

Near noon, Shen Chuan arrived as expected.

The servants welcomed him into the main hall, and then went to Songshouyuan to report to the old lady.

The old lady frowned after hearing this: "Why are you here again?"

Liu's mother said: "Old Madam, you forgot, didn't you say that you came to see Madam on the Queen's order? I must have missed seeing you yesterday and couldn't pay the errand, so I made another trip." Hearing this, Old Madam Now I have nothing to say.

"In that case, why don't we just ask Fuyue to see him?" As soon as the words came out, the old lady suddenly paused, "I heard that Fuyue is sick, how are you doing now?"

Mother Liu smiled and said: "Don't worry, old lady. Madam is already well. She also walked around the backyard in the morning. I heard from people below that her steps are just a little frivolous. It's not a big problem!"

After saying that, Liu's mother sighed again: "Oh, now in the old lady's heart, the weight of the madam is really getting heavier! If this matter spreads outside, I don't know how many people will envy the madam!"

These two words of Mother Liu made the old lady very happy: "Well, after all, she is the mistress of our Hou Mansion. It is not easy to manage the whole Hou Mansion. As a mother-in-law, I take care of you, so naturally. It’s as it should be!”

Mother Liu smiled and echoed a few times, and then said: "Then Mr. Shen..."

When Shen Chuan was mentioned, the smile on the old lady's face faded.

She thought for a while and said: "Then Shen... Shen or something, is he a fifth-rank official?"

Mother Liu nodded yes.

The old lady snorted coldly and said: "A mere fifth-grade official is worthy of asking me to go see him? Don't alarm the Marquis, just ask Fu Yue to go!"

Hearing this, Mother Liu hesitated: "But old lady, I heard that Mr. Shen is the famous person in front of His Majesty. If we don't see him, will we offend him?"

"No matter how famous he is, he is still a fifth-rank official! It can be seen that His Majesty doesn't take him seriously. We are the Marquis Mansion! Are we still afraid of him?" The old lady said in an impatient tone, "Okay, okay, hurry up and call Go down and pass the message! By the way, tell the kitchen to have lunch early today."

Seeing this, Liu's mother did not dare to say anything more and followed the old lady's instructions.

The coming and going in the backyard wasted a lot of time.

Shen Chuan was not in a hurry. He just sat drinking tea in the main hall, looking like an old god.

After a while of burning incense, I heard the sound of footsteps approaching from far away.

Shen Chuan raised his eyes to look at the person who came, put the tea cup aside, stood up and saluted: "Mrs. Gu."

"Master Shen, there is no need to be polite, just sit down," Jiang Fuyue said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, Master Shen, you have made these two trips. I must have delayed you a lot, right?"

Shen Chuan sat down and observed Jiang Fuyue's expression without any trace. He saw that there was no other abnormality in her except for the reddish circles under her eyes, and he felt slightly calm.

When he heard that the maid next to Jiang Fuyue went to call the imperial doctor Ling's son overnight, he was really shocked.

Shen Chuan didn't reveal anything on his face. He shook his head and said with a smile: "It's fortunate that the Queen sent me such a leisurely errand. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would be detained in the palace by Your Majesty to review for Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." It’s a memorial.”

Jiang Fuyue was startled.

Shen Chuan is actually approving memorials for His Majesty?
Or with the prince?
She quickly came to her senses and looked regretful: "If I had known better, I should have been sick for two more days and asked you to take some time off."

Shen Chuan pursed his lips, and most of the smile on his face disappeared: "I don't want to be so leisurely all the time."

Jiang Fuyue couldn't answer this.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall had turned cold, Shen Chuan stood up and said, "Now that I have seen with my own eyes that Mrs. Gu is fine, I have to go and reply to the Queen, so I have to take a step forward."

Jiang Fuyue also stood up: "I'll see you off, sir."

"No need," Shen Chuan said hurriedly, "Madam is still weak, it's best to go back and rest quickly."

After saying that, Shen Chuan turned around and walked away in a hurry.

Jiang Fuyue didn't go out to see him off after all.

Seeing him leaving, Jiang Fuyue turned around and returned to Shaoguangyuan.

As a result, as soon as we reached the Weeping Flower Gate, the boy from the concierge outside caught up with him out of breath: "Madam, there is a woman outside who says she is your friend and wants to see you!"
