Chapter 252 Inquire about news, secret calculations
Rong Jingqiu's eyebrows were also frowned. The doctor in the palace had many minor problems, but there were no major problems. Princess Qinglan checked him, but did not find any abnormalities. Because of this, she did not think that the doctor in the palace would have any problems.
But if this person was not abnormal, why would he kill the elementary apprentice in anger?
For a doctor with good medical skills, it is really easy to kill someone. After all, no one is more familiar with the human body than they do.
"Then report to the official." Rong Jin said angrily, "We can no longer keep such a person in our mansion. In the past, he was quite upright in his behavior, so he was kept as a doctor..."
Rong Jingqiu interrupted her mother, "Let's go."
When Rong Jin faced her daughter, she put away her anger and asked in a kind tone, "Qiu Yatou, what do you want?"
When Rong Jingqiu saw her mother's carefulness when facing her, she immediately said with a smile, "Mom, my body is really good, you don't have to be so careful."
Rong Jin gently stroked his daughter's hair, "Son, when you become a mother in the future, you will understand your mother's current mood." He paused, "I don't ask for anything else in my life, I just want you brothers and sisters to be safe and smooth, and I will be unstoppable in this life."
Rong Jingqiu was silent, her hands gently stroked her flat belly. She was not lucky enough to taste what it was like to be a mother in her previous life. She wanted to realize this dream and have a child connected to her bloodline.
But soon she threw this depressed mood behind her. Her previous life had passed away. It was useless to think about it again, so she turned over and discussed it in detail with her mother.
Rong Jin's brows kept frowning, but finally looked at her daughter in surprise, "How did you think of her?"
"Mom, don't underestimate her. The rotten ship has three-point nails." Rong Jingqiu said sneered.
Originally, she wanted to pull Rong Jingdong in, but when she thought of Rong Jin's words that only asked you brothers and sisters for safety and well-being, she swallowed the words she said. She couldn't bear to hurt Rong Jin, so she didn't want to worry about something that was not yet confirmed.
Rong Jin nodded and finally said, "You can do whatever you want, and your parents will have the best of all major events."
Rong Jingqiu hugged her mother's arm and snuggled gently against her, like a child.
Rong Jin gently caressed her daughter's hair. This is the treasure she lost and regained. How could she not cherish or love?
"When will my mother tell her clearly?" Rong Jingqiu quickly regained her calm and self-sustaining face. Although her mother's arms were good, they were not her alone. "The paper cannot be kept in the fire. The longer it takes, the worse it will be. If a lie is told, it will be used to make countless lies. Mom, if the fourth sister knows this from other ways, she will be more extreme and obscene."
At the end, she lowered her eyes slightly to cover up her true thoughts. Rong Jingdong had been quiet for too long, which was unusual, so she had to lift her out. According to her hot temper, if this matter is really related to her, it will be a matter of time before she reveals a flaw.
Just plotting against Rong Jingdong in front of her mother, she felt a little ashamed. This maternal love became stronger and stronger, but she could repay her less and less. In the end, it would still make her sad. When she thought of this, her heart felt so uncomfortable.
When talking about her younger daughter, Rong Jin had a headache. Her palms and backs were full of flesh, which was equally important to her? However, when she thought that her eldest daughter was willing to care about her younger daughter, her heart finally felt a little more comfortable.
"Your sister was spoiled by Wei Niang. Now she wants to correct her, but she has no idea how to start. If she comes back, she will definitely make a noise..." While saying that, she carefully paid attention to the expression of her eldest daughter and told the worst situation in advance.
Rong Jingqiu said, "Mom, the fourth sister's surname is Rong. It's not like living in the grandfather's house. Others can gossip." After a pause, "As for my marriage with the ninth prince, let's talk carefully, I believe the fourth sister will accept it."
"I hope so." Rong Jinshi had a look of relief on her face and patted her daughter's back of her hand. "I can't be so sad for you to still remember her, and I feel very relieved for her mother."
Rong Jingqiu lowered her head with some shame. She was not as tolerant and generous as her mother said. She would never tolerate those who poisoned her.
Rong Jinshi mistakenly thought that her daughter was embarrassed to hear the praise, and her heart suddenly became soft.
Finally, the eldest daughter asked a few words to care about her younger daughter. When Rong Jin left, she was smiling. She had to deal with the matter in person to pick her up. After all, she could only persuade her younger daughter to have a few words of dog temper.
When Rong Jingqiu saw her mother's back as she left, her expression suddenly stopped. Her fingers coldly tapped the table. Rong Jingdong would take the opportunity to come back. She had to think about how to "enter" this legitimate sister.
"Girl, the Ninth Palace is coming down." Zhu'er lifted the curtain and came in to report.
Rong Jingqiu retracted her complicated and messy thoughts, and said leisurely, "Please come in." She paused, "Who will accompany her this time?"
Although the two had an engagement, they were always a foreigner before getting married. Every time Zhao Yu came to visit her, a man from the Rong family would accompany her.
"It's Brother Lu."
Rong Lu?
When Rong Jingqiu heard this name, she knew why Rong Lu was rushing for this errand, and then she had a smile on her face.
Not long after, the young boy Rong Lu pretended to be accustomed to accompany Zhao Yu to lift the curtain. As soon as he came in, he saluted Rong Jingqiu in a regular manner and asked his elder sister.
This action made Zhao Yu smile on his face and touched Rong Lu's head with a rare affectionate feeling.
Rong Lu's face turned red and she felt uncomfortable trying to avoid the hands on her head, but when she thought of her own sister who had married into the East Palace, she barely suppressed her desire to escape.
"Okay, I'm embarrassed to not see my brother Lu?" Rong Jingqiu smiled, rescued Rong Lu from Zhao Yu's "clip", and waved to him and let him come to her side.
Rong Lu hurried forward with relief and let her sit next to her, and then the elder sister's wet nurse Lin An brought him delicious pastries. At Rong Jingqiu, he would subconsciously relax himself.
My biological mother, Aunt Fu, was sent to the family temple. Before getting married, my sister said it was her idea and told him to hate her if he wanted to hate her, it would have nothing to do with others.
He shook his head at that time. He knew that his sister did this for him. He let his biological mother do whatever she wanted. He was the one who suffered in the end. Even if he had already recorded it in his name, his background could not be changed, and his blood relationship could not be cut off. The things his biological mother did would eventually be counted on him.
He told his sister that he would hate no one, but no matter how his biological mother gave birth to him, he would visit her regularly at the ancestral temple and not let others bully her.
My sister said yes, and said that she would give him money regularly and ask him to use it to improve his living conditions for her aunt, but she could not give money to her, otherwise it would cause trouble and he should remember it.
He was too embarrassed to speak out about what his biological mother did, and his sister's approach was considered to be the best of everyone, so he nodded and agreed.
He did not hide the fact that he visited Aunt Fu's wife Rong Jinshi. Before his sister married into the East Palace, she told him that she would obtain the consent of her mother before doing anything, and that she would not make any mistakes in etiquette. Of course, these things must be reported to her father in addition, so that her mother would not make things difficult for him.
He thought his mother would be unhappy, but he quickly agreed to visit his biological mother on the first and fifteenth days of the first and fifteenth days. He breathed a sigh of relief and became more respectful to his mother.
Zhao Yu glanced at the young boy who was well-behaved and smirked. Then he stepped forward and looked carefully at Rong Jingqiu's face. It was indeed getting rosier every day. "I brought you some nourishing medicinal herbs, and your body still needs to be replenished."
Rong Jingqiu gave him a blank look, "I don't want it. I want to vomit as soon as I smell the medicine recently."
After taking too many medicines, she was already impatient with the smell and also aroused the nightmare of her previous life.
"If you are obedient, how can you joke about your own body?" Zhao Yu scolded her with a stern face, then went directly over her, called Lin An to approach, and patiently ordered the effects and dosage of the medicinal materials, without any action.
Seeing this, the young boy Rong Lu quietly approached Rong Jingqiu and said, "Third Sister, Your Highness Ninth really cares about you." I wonder if the prince's brother-in-law would care so much about his sister? He had expectations in his heart, but was afraid of hearing bad news.
Rong Jingqiu glanced at him sideways, tapped him lightly on his head, and joked: "At a young age, you know what is good and what is bad?"
But Rong Lu nodded, "My third sister doesn't know that the master of our clan is not good to his wife. I saw with my own eyes that he either beat or scolded his wife, and disliked him as a farmer girl."
Rong Jingqiu was stunned. Unexpectedly, she could still hear such gossip. The clan master had never cared about it. At this time, she couldn't help but frown. How could such a person be worthy of being a husband? It would prevent misleading his children.
She had to mention this matter to her parents when she turned around. Such a scumbag was not worthy of being a role model, and she had to beat him up so that he would not dare to discourage his wife again.
Rong Lu didn't know that he had just been gossiping, so he ruined the future of this clan's scholar.
"What are you siblings and brothers talking about?" After Zhao Yu ordered Lin An, he saw the siblings whispering to each other and not knowing what they were talking about.
"Nothing." Rong Jingqiu said, looking at Rong Lu, signaling him to calm down and not to panic, "By the way, leaving the East Palace was too hasty that day. I seemed to see the sixth sister in front of the bed?"
Whenever Rong Jingji was mentioned, Rong Lu would erect her little ears and listen carefully. The purpose of his coming here was to inquire about his sister. After all, he was too far from the East Palace, and it would not be easy even if he wanted to know his sister's recent situation.
Zhao Yu glanced at Rong Lu. Rong Jingqiu would mention Rong Jingji. A large part of the reason was this boy. Seeing that he was quite respectful to Rong Jingqiu, the elder sister, he said casually, "She was very worried about you that day, and she kept taking care of you in front of your bed. Later, she was exhausted and almost fainted..."
When Rong Lu heard this, she couldn't help but scream in surprise, and looked at Zhao Yu nervously, "How is my sister?"
"Don't be nervous, she is not seriously injured. The prince took her back. Afterwards, I also sent someone to tell her about your third sister's situation so that she can feel at ease." As for the poisoning in Rong Jingqiu later, he did not send anyone to mention Rong Jingji.
Rong Lu's heart was then put back into her stomach. He could finally feel at ease when he heard the prince care about his sister so much.
When Rong Jingqiu saw the smile on the young boy's face, she knew that Zhao Yu had chosen it as well. As for whether Rong Jingji's life after marriage, she still had to go and see it with her own eyes to rest assured.
As if he knew what Rong Jingqiu was thinking, Zhao Yu looked at her and said, "I never lie. It's good if it's good, but it's bad if it's bad. I heard that the prince has been quite fond of Concubine Rong recently and stayed in her bedroom one after another."
Rong Jingqiu coughed lightly, and her eyes rushed towards Rong Lu. She was talking nonsense in front of the child. But she knew in her heart that what he said was true. If there were no rumors, Zhao Yu would not have known this. Otherwise, his brother-in-law would have cared about his brother's backyard, and that would have been gossiped about.
Zhao Yu snorted coldly, he was twelve or thirteen years old, and he really thought he was an ignorant child. He could kiss him at this age, but in some rural areas, I was afraid he could be a father.
Rong Lu's face turned slightly red. Hearing this news made his heart cheer for a long time. Does this mean that his sister is extremely favored by the prince? He is not an ignorant child. Naturally, he knows that in the backyard, a man's attitude determines what kind of life a woman can live, and whether she is favored or not is really important.
It’s like his biological mother, who had to be favored before, and to be filled with wind, and to be filled with rain, which made her stepmother breathless. Once she lost favor, she would be nothing. If she could stay quietly in a corner of the backyard, she would have no place to stand.
Rong Jingji is really favored. The prince has been staying with her for a long time, which makes the other women in the East Palace hate her and she has no choice but to do anything.
Concubine Qi had already broken many decorations in the house, but the jealousy in her chest could not be calmed down. The prince had a new person and forgot the old person. He had never been like this before. Now she mentioned the highest fear of Rong Jingji. The position of the Crown Princess is still vacant, and she would not let Rong Jingji sit on it no matter what.
When Qi Aoer came to visit her, she happened to see Concubine Qi sitting in the ground with a distorted face, and she frowned immediately. She wanted to be the crown princess with this mind. No one could criticize the Qi family's daughter for being uneducated.
"Sister San, get up, hurry up and wash your face. I have something to say to you."
Hearing the voice of the legitimate sister, Concubine Qi came to her senses, looked at the legitimate sister, and looked embarrassed on her face. She hurriedly called the maid to come in and help her get up, turned to the clean room behind, washed her face, and reorganized her appearance, and then came out to meet Qi Aoer again.
"Why is the legitimate sister here?" She sat down and said, "I didn't ask anyone to tell me, I'm at the door to greet me."
"There's no need." Qi Ao'er said, taking something out of her sleeve and throwing it in front of Concubine Qi, "Is this what you told your concubine to do?"
A villain threw it on Concubine Qi like this. She subconsciously took it, looked at it, and quickly threw it away. She said guiltily, "What is this? I didn't ask my aunt to do this. Did the legitimate sister make a mistake?"
"It's best if you don't have it, Sister Chao, I told you that Concubine Rong will not be your opponent. If she can't be the crown princess, we don't need to treat her as a thorn in our eyes. And if we use this method to deal with her, it's simply a killing knife."
Qi Aoer looked full of contempt and immediately looked at the close maid. The maid immediately stepped forward and picked up the villain and threw it into the charcoal basin. Suddenly, there was a burning smell in the room.
Concubine Qi's face looked very ugly, and she felt that the burning smell was a mockery of her, especially from Qi Aoer, the self-deprecating sister. Her resentment became stronger and stronger. She clenched her hands tightly into fists and listened to her scolding her.
However, when she heard that the candidate for the Crown Princess had been confirmed, she immediately looked at her legitimate sister, "Who?"
Qi Aoer frowned and repeated, "General Xiao's daughter is now on the way back to Beijing."
This candidate made her feel a headache. General Xiao was in charge of military power, and hundreds of thousands of people on the border followed his orders, but the one who controlled him was General Ma and the in-laws of Hou Rongcheng, Dingyuan.
The queen should have worked hard to choose the candidate for the Crown Princess. With the guarantee of these two parties, the position of the crown prince should be stable.
Logically speaking, the saint would not agree to this marriage, but he agreed and issued an imperial edict to grant marriage.
This future crown princess is not easy to deal with. If the crown prince can successfully ascend the throne, she will be able to be praised. It is not easy for her to pick peaches from her hands. This is also the biggest reason why she is dissatisfied with this marriage.
So when she came, she had to raise the jealousy of the concubine's sister and let her rush forward as cannon fodder was a good choice.
"This should be your enemy, not a mere concubine of the Rong family, who is just a person who is taking over to see the child. What are you competing with her?"
Concubine Qi knew what the legitimate sister said was intended, and she knew that she shouldn't bite the bait, but she couldn't help but be jealous. She couldn't take any favors or status, so how could she be willing to do so? She had already consumed all her youth in this Eastern Palace, and these two should always belong to her.
Even if it was a flash of light, she wanted to catch it.
"I get it." She replied muffled.
Seeing that she was awake, Qi Aoer smiled a little on her face, "Let me tell you in detail about this future princess. You know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles."
On this side, the sisters discussed the magnanimity of the enemy, but on the other side, Rong Jingji teased the child left by Rong Jingchun.
After only ten days of marriage, the queen announced that she would come to see her, and then handed the child back to her. There were also a group of girls and wet nurses who had no experience in taking care of the child. At first, she was in a hurry, but later she finally learned how to serve a child.
She thought simple, treat this child well, make good relationships, and can have a support when she is old in the future, and she will not be in a miserable future, so she has tried her best to deal with this matter.
Fortunately, this child is not difficult to take care of and is getting closer to her, which makes her feel a little accomplished.
