Chapter 146 I Must Go This Time
On the second day of the funeral, Wenjiu fell ill and was so hot that everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion was so busy that they couldn't get up. While the old lady was being buried, the imperial physicians were also busy.
People on the street were discussing what happened?
Some people said that the county lady was very filial. She was so sad that the old lady passed away that she knelt for several days and nights without eating or drinking. She became so sick that she couldn't even get out of bed for the funeral.
Everyone sighed, and they started talking about another secret about the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Mrs. Wen was demoted to a concubine.
She was actually taking care of her mother-in-law and was caught having an affair by Old Madam Wen
Then they poisoned the old lady to death. If Mrs. Gao had not gone to see her remains, she would not have known what was going on when she saw blood coming out of all her orifices.
What? The second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion is not the Prime Minister's biological son. Doesn't that mean the Prime Minister is cuckolded and has raised someone else's son for so many years?
Then...is the Fifth Prince's wife the Prime Minister's daughter?
This one said, yes, but the second son, who had been living a life of luxury since childhood, didn't want to leave and just worked as a handyman in the mansion.
Hey, the county lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the eldest son, are really filial. Look, the fifth prince's wife didn't come to see the old lady off, and the county lady is too sick to get up.
The public opinion was pushed to a higher level.
The General's Mansion received the letter from Wen Jiu, and gave up the idea of everyone going to visit together. Only the old lady came with her two aunts and three brothers. This was no different from mobilizing the whole family.
The imperial physician who treated Wen Jiu prescribed a prescription, shook his head, and left. Qing Li felt the strange pulse, looked at his master, and hesitated to speak.
"I used the medicine, don't worry, I'm fine. I have something to tell you. I will be leaving the capital in a few days. Please help me look after the General's Mansion and my brother. If there is anything, you must send a message to me immediately using a falcon. I don't want the General's Mansion to happen again, understand?" Wen Jiu strictly told Qing Li
"Master, rest assured. Qingli will remember this." As soon as Qingli finished speaking, Xuanling said that the old lady and the others were coming.
Qingli withdrew and went to boil some medicine. She had indeed caught a cold and needed to boil some medicine.
Bai Zhi brought the old lady in. As soon as the old lady came in, her eyes were filled with tears. "Oh my goodness, what happened?"
"Grandma, I'm fine." Wen Jiu was telling the truth, just to deal with the doctor's manipulation of her. When the old lady entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, she saw the doctor's expression and became worried and hurried.
Qin Shi hurriedly supported her. When she came in, she saw Wen Jiu like this. She said she was fine. Wasn't this going to kill her? Did she have to be a good girl in Beijing? She came back with injuries of all sizes...
Baizhi put a pillow on Wenjiu's back. Wenjiu gave Baizhi a look. Baizhi took all the irrelevant people out and stood guard at the door with Xuanling.
"Good boy, don't sit up, lie down quickly," the old lady said, and the rest of the people agreed with a worried look on their faces.
Wen Jiu thought that he should explain it to them clearly this time, otherwise he would feel uneasy seeing their worried expressions.
"Grandma, I heard about what happened in the General's Mansion,"
"You don't have to worry about the General's Mansion anymore. This matter has been dealt with. It's just that the woman was used. She spread the word that she wanted to curry favor with the powerful. We also gave them some money. She has already left Beijing," Su Jinxiu said
Wen Jiu couldn't help but frown after hearing this. Just let it go? "Did you say who the person behind this is?"
"The seventh princess's nurse contacted her," the old lady sighed and said
It's probably her. It's not hard to guess. After all, she has a huge hatred for them. Wen Jiu's eyes darkened.
"Don't worry, it's over. Just take good care of yourself." The old lady touched her head lovingly.
"There will definitely be some follow-up to this matter. I don't believe she would do such a meaningless thing. Since she is back, she must have a backup plan. You must be careful, especially at this palace banquet. Don't leave her any chance to act." Wen Jiu was thinking whether it was not necessary to be so anxious, but she had been back for a long time, and she had not yet found out about the old man's affairs, and there was no progress. It was urgent to send something to the second uncle, and she could not delay any longer...
"Be good?"
"younger sister...."
"Wine"
They all wondered
"I have something to tell you all, please support me and keep it a secret for me," Wen Jiu looked at them.
"What's the matter?" Su Jinyu asked, and she just happened to ask the question everyone wanted to ask.
"I'm going to the northwest. The capital will never let me leave, let alone go to the northwest, so I'm......"
"No," Wen Jiu was interrupted by the old lady before he could finish his words, "If you want to see your second uncle, he...he will come back eventually. Ask your grandfather to find a suitable time. Not now. We can't go with you. If you go by yourself, I won't let you go even if you say it to the sky, not to mention the state you are in now."
"Grandma, please listen to me first. I just did something to myself. I just have a cold. I'm going to deliver something to my second uncle. I won't play around. I... Xiao Jue will send someone to escort me. I'll go secretly and no one will know. I plan to take this opportunity to say that the capital is not suitable for recuperation and that I can only recover by going to a temple. Then I will go quietly. During this period, the Seventh Princess will definitely come to see me in person. When she eliminates her doubts, I will be truly safe and I will be back soon."
"What are you sending? I'll go," Su Jinmu said.
"Second brother, I have to go this time. I originally thought that the fewer people who knew about this, the better. I'm afraid you'd worry, so I decided to tell you. I hope to get your support." Wen Jiu's eyes were pleading.
"This... is very dangerous. If my father and mother knew that I didn't stop you, they would break my legs." Su Jinmu's heart softened.
"I'll speak up for my second brother then," Wen Jiu knew he had been persuaded.
"The gift you gave is very important! But it doesn't have to be you. Your grandfather and the deputy general who came back can go. I won't agree."
He threw off the quilt, got out of bed and knelt beside the old lady, frightening everyone.
"My dear, what are you doing? Get up quickly, you are still sick." The old lady threw away the crutches in her hand to warm the wine, but she didn't move.
"Grandma, Xiao Jue won't let anything happen to me. Besides, I have already asked the people from Biluo Mountain Villa to escort us. They are all elites. We have to keep a low profile when entering the northwest. You can rest assured. The things I have this time are really important to my second uncle. They are life-saving things. Please help me, grandma." Wen Jiu almost fell to the ground, sobbing.
"My dear, I can probably guess what you want to give, but if this is discovered, you will be committing a rebellion, punishable by death. You are the apple of our eye, and you didn't grow up with us. Now you want to take this risk. Do you think I will agree? I dote on you, but I'm not stupid. This is a matter of life and death. You are asking for your grandmother's life."
