Chapter 320 Poison Scheme (4)

Empress Dowager Wei was satisfied.

It is comfortable to deal with smart people.

She didn't say anything, and left Zhong Xinran alone on Xinghuatai, just to clear herself up.

No matter what Zhong Xinran does in the future, whether she is exposed or not, it has nothing to do with her.

The reason for threatening Zhong Xinran like this is to test whether Zhong Xinran is really smart and sensible enough, and to give a warning by the way.

From the looks of it now, Zhong Xinran's performance was enough to reassure her.

Empress Dowager Wei leaned back in the chair comfortably, and said: "Looking at how promising you are, I just care about you, why are you crying?
In this way, your mother is seriously ill, the mansion has not been repaired, and it is not convenient for orphans and widows to live in the inn, so you should move to Tianji Pavilion.

I asked the imperial physician to recuperate your mother's body, which can be regarded as fulfilling His Majesty's filial piety. "

If you want to complete that plan, you can only have a chance by staying in the palace.Zhong Xinran did not refuse, but saluted and thanked Queen Mother Wei, and then went to the side hall to take care of Mrs. Zhong.

After passing the corridor, she saw Wei Sang standing outside, she bowed her head and bowed respectfully: "My Lady Xuan."

Wei Sang smiled lightly: "Excuse me, the girl is His Majesty's junior sister and the first daughter of His Majesty's benefactor, Wei Sang dare not accept your gift."

Aunt Ju whispered in a voice that only three people could hear: "Shameless bastard! Do you dare to pretend to be a queen?"

Zhong Xinran pretended not to hear, and said calmly: "Ministers don't understand Madam's words."

"One day you will understand." Aunt Ju smiled coldly and helped Wei Sang to leave.

Zhong Xinran straightened up and stared coldly at the backs of Wei Sang and Nanny Ju, it may not be known who will die, so don't be too happy.

It was dusk, Chonghua was called to discuss matters again, and there was another friction at the junction of Li Guo and Dongling. He had to deal with it, and he might not be able to go back to the dormitory to rest tonight.

Just in time for Zhong Weiwei to pack her things, she leaned under the lamp and asked Xiaotang to take out all her treasured tea cakes and tea sets.

These are all her favorite things, and she is reluctant to discard any of them.

But if you want to leave, these things obviously cannot be taken away.

She hesitated again and again, her heart hurt so badly that she finally left only a simple and round paulownia box.

The tea cakes in the box are firm and beautiful, even the size and roundness are almost the same.

In the center of the tea cake was a Tangdi pattern, which was Chonghua's gift to her on her birthday last year, and it was also the tea cake he made himself.

She has been cherishing it as a treasure and is reluctant to move it. It is a thought to take it away this time. If she dies in the future and is buried with her, it will be regarded as Chonghua accompanying her.

Zhong Weiwei handed the paulownia box to Xiaotang: "Let Fang Jian send this out tomorrow, and give it to Zhong Mao for safekeeping."

Xiaotang hurriedly put the box into her bag, and Zhong Weiwei called her again: "Go and get my jewelry box."

The jewelry box was full of jewelry, which Chonghua found for her after the two reconciled.

Although the things inside are not as precious and exquisite as those of Queen Mother Wei and others, they are the best things in Chonghua's private treasury.

Zhong Weiwei picked and picked, and dug out the sapphire phoenix pendant from the deepest part.

The sapphire phoenix pendant was packed in a dilapidated Tangdi flower purse with rough needlework—it was the old one given to her by Chonghua and she kept it with her for several years. After he ascended the throne, he asked Zhao Hongtu to burn it Purse.

Zhong Weiwei recalled these things over the years, with mixed feelings, and couldn't help but wet his eyes.

Xiaotang leaned over to take a look, and couldn't help but said, "Hey, when did this treasure end up here?"

With a smile, Zhong Weiwei was ashamed: "Your Majesty did it, tsk tsk, it's really a concubine's love, I don't know how long it has been hidden, but you just discovered it today."

Zhong Weiwei pursed her lips and smiled, leaving the Tangdi flower purse behind, carefully wrapped the sapphire phoenix pendant, and put in a brand new exquisite purse, pressed it to the bottom of the box, and locked the jewelry box.

Aunt Qian came in from the outside, frowned and said, "Have you heard? Wan'an Palace has kept Mrs. Zhong and Miss Zhong and arranged them to live in Tianji Pavilion."

Zhong Weiwei had already heard about this, and it was expected: "Didn't it mean that Mrs. Zhong was ill? The imperial doctor said that it is not suitable to move. If she is transported out of the palace, she will live in an inn. Orphans and widows, between two women It's not suitable for my generation. If something happens, it will be your Majesty's fault."

The excuse that Empress Dowager Wei made was perfect, and Aunt Qian sighed, "It's time to be too sick."

Although Zhong Weiwei didn't like Mrs. Zhong and knew that Mrs. Zhong might be pretending to be sick, she didn't want to say anything wrong about Mrs. Zhong in front of Aunt Qian.

In any case, I have to save some face for my foster father who died.

So she just said "hmm" and didn't say anything more.

Aunt Qian didn't like to say too much: "Your Majesty asked me to tell you that you don't have to wait for him at night, take your medicine earlier and go to bed earlier, don't worry about other things, you have him."

This is to let her leave Mrs. Zhong's affairs alone. Zhong Weiwei knows it well, and obediently asks Xiaotang to pack her things, drink medicine, and sleep.

Aunt Qian was still worried, and secretly sent someone to watch Zhong Xinran and her daughter.

Under the control of people with good intentions, frequent frictions occurred on the border between Dongling and Li country. Many people died on both sides, which was quite troublesome.

It's the autumn harvest season again, and in some places, the autumn floods have risen and the people need to be relieved. Chonghua is very busy.

Zhong Weiwei woke up the next morning and only saw Youyou, but not Chonghua.

I personally made some of Chonghua's favorite food and sent them to Zhaoren Palace. Standing outside the main hall, I took a look at Chonghua from a distance, packed up another gift, and took it to Tianji Pavilion again.

Xiao Tang disagreed: "Last time I looked at the eldest girl, and I wished I could immediately coax the eldest son to like her alone. If you visit the sick, you can just visit the sick. Why do you take the eldest son with you?"

Zhong Weiwei said indifferently: "Why did the Queen Mother manage to keep the mother-in-law in the palace? It is because we received the kindness from our adoptive father back then.

The adoptive father is a great Confucian of the generation, who is admired by countless scholars.People in the world are ignorant and don't know why.

He will only see orphans and widows being treated coldly, and feel that His Majesty is a white-eyed wolf, not worthy of the protection of scholars.

Letting His Majesty go down to fulfill his filial piety is too wronged him, I can't bear it.I took it with me and went back and forth, ruining the reputation of filial piety, and disgusting them, why not do it? "

Xiaotang couldn't refute, so she obediently stopped talking, but actively gave her advice: "Then don't stay long, just mess with it as you like. I'll arrange someone to come over and say that His Majesty has something to ask you to do. Let's go."

Zhong Weiwei said: "Don't worry about it, I have my own opinion."

After waiting for so long, finally, Queen Mother Wei and Zhong Xinran made the move. She couldn't wish for it more, how could she let this opportunity go casually?

In Tianji Pavilion, Mrs. Zhong was lying on the bed humming.

Originally, she recovered after the imperial doctor administered the acupuncture, but when she heard the imperial doctor said that she was very serious and could not move, of course she had to be too sick to move.
