"Otherwise, something is going to happen!"
When I said this, Fu Badai was also slightly shocked, and Chabixing looked at me with a smile: "Does the eldest lady already know something?"
I took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Jin, Gongsun Shu, and Yuan Mingde from Henan, have all had letters with Pei Yuanxiu."
"Pei Yuanxiu, that's--"
As he said, he suddenly remembered something and looked up at me. My face became slightly heavy. I just pursed my lips and didn't answer this. Instead, Fu Badai said, "Have you seen all these people?"
"Well, in Qinghan and - at their wedding, many of these people were present."
"Then have they had any private interactions with Pei Yuanxiu?"
I thought about it and nodded: "Yes."
"Have you seen it?"
"Um."
"What did they talk about?"
"I don't know this."
"Why?"
I was silent for a moment before saying softly: "They have always been guarding against me in doing things. They just locked me outside the door that time. They happened to see them after coming out of the Jinling Mansion. Moreover, it was not those people who came forward in person, but they were the envoys they sent, so even if the emperor wanted to investigate, he could not find them."
“…”
Fu Badai said nothing, but just slowly lowered his head.
At this time, Chabixing suddenly said, "They locked the lady outside the door?"
“…”
I was stunned for a moment, raised my head, and looked at his face that was used to being hippie and smiling. My brows frowned slightly, and a hint of chill appeared in my eyes: "Who did it?"
My heart couldn't help but sink.
Actually, I can understand his mood at this moment. After all, I am a little famous in Xishan Academy and I was also sought after at the beginning. But in their eyes, I, who should be very sought after, was trampled on by others. Not only did I hurt them, but I also hurt them.
Speaking of which, I may not be angry about that incident, but when I think of the things that happened in Jinling Mansion, I feel really angry, but it is not the turn of that incident. After a long time, I gradually faded.
Anyway, Han Ruoshi may not be able to live better than me.
Thinking of this, I waved my hand: "It's been the past, I won't talk about this for now."
Chabixing seemed so angry that he wanted to say something. I turned to Fu Badai and said, "The teacher thinks that if there is a possibility, if it is really a person from Shanxi or Yuan Mingde, then this matter is reasonable."
Fu Badai didn't say anything at first. After a while, he said, "Is it Nangong Jinhong's nephew?"
"yes."
As I said that, I looked at Chabixing again and said softly: "At that time, we also guessed that there might be someone who called to catch the thief, but the emperor believed them very much. After all, Qu Xueyi was Nangong Jinhong's only nephew, and this nephew has been growing up with him. For this matter, even the imperial concubine once called me to her to question."
Fu Badai said: "Do you think they seem to be acting?"
“…”
I was silent for a moment.
If you talk about the people in the palace and the people in the court, acting is probably more meticulous than those actors on the stage. If you really want to say it, you may not be able to tell the truth or the false.
But - I remembered that Nangong Lizhu called me in front of her that day, and her eyes were almost red when she hated her.
She did act well, but she was already a concubine and had almost broken up with the queen Chang Qing. Only Pei Yuanhao was worthy of her acting, but Pei Yuanhao was not present that day. If she said she really wanted to act, she would show it to me, it would be a bit out of tune.
I thought about it and said, "It doesn't seem fake."
"oh……"
Fu Badai fell silent.
At this time, Chabixingcai said: "If this is the case, then the people from Shanxi or Yuan Mingde from Henan will be very suspicious."
My brows were also tightened.
Perhaps, we were really wrong before. Even if Nangong Jinhong yearns for power, he will not attack his only nephew. This matter really has nothing to do with the people of the Nangong family. In this way, he will relax his vigilance against those people.
Fu Badai sighed: "If this is the case, I will give you a note tomorrow."
I nodded.
He said again: "If the emperor comes to you, you know what to say, right?"
"..." I was silent for a moment and nodded.
After all, it is related to Nianshen's safety, and I cannot stand by and watch.
After saying this, seeing that it was getting late outside, I wanted to get up and say goodbye. Of course, Fu Badai would not give me a gift. Only Chabixing sent me to the gate. He was a little unexpectedly quiet. He did not laugh and make a fuss like before, but instead made me look at him with some concern.
He looked at me, too.
I smiled and said, "What's wrong with you?"
He said: "Did the eldest lady suffer a lot of grievances during the time she married into Jinling?"
"..." I was stunned. I didn't expect that he still remembered this matter. I couldn't tell that this person was usually an optimistic monkey, but he attached great importance to some things.
I thought about it and said, "Of course I feel wronged, but I have enjoyed a lot of blessings."
Then he smiled and said, "So it's offset."
He said coldly with a cold face: "Of course, men marry their daughter-in-law, and of course they love them. Who is the one who marrys their daughter-in-law to make her suffer aggrieved?"
“…”
For some reason, I was a little surprised at his persistence in this matter and a little surprised at his opinion. Although this view had never been mentioned before, it unexpectedly made people feel very comfortable.
I smiled and said, "Then your future wife will be blessed."
He originally wanted to be stern, but at this time he couldn't hold on and laughed twice.
I smiled and patted his shoulder: "Your words do make sense. In the future, I don't know who will be so lucky to marry you."
His face turned redder again, probably because his skin was whiter than that of ordinary people, and it only turned red, and it looked like his whole face was red. I continued, "But now, it's not yet time for you to consider marrying a wife. Men always talk about love and love, and they are petty and disappointed you to study art in Xishan Academy for so many years. Now, since the emperor brought you to Jixian Hall, the meaning is very clear, but you have to know that as the elder of the three dynasties has left, no one of the remaining people is easier to deal with than him. If you really want to do something in the court, your own practice is indispensable."
He nodded: "I know."
"Be careful in your words and actions."
I left these words, patted his shoulder again, and then turned around and left.

When I returned to the palace, I heard that Chang Qing was still in a low mood and didn’t even eat anything at night, but I didn’t go over to persuade her. After all, this kind of thing needs to be cured slowly, and now I have many things to consider.
For example, I know that Miaoyan went to see Nangong Lizhu again today.
This time, she told me obediently that Su Su and the others were afraid that I would lose their temper, but when they saw that I was just plain and didn't look angry, they were relieved.
When I was drinking sweet soup with Miaoyan, I asked her: "You go see that lady. Is she cured now?"
"No."
"Didn't the imperial physician be called in the palace to treat her?"
"It's cured, but there's no improvement."
"oh……"
"And, she's still having a high fever."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah!" Miaoyan nodded vigorously and said to me: "Her forehead is so hot. I touched it, it's hot! And today, she couldn't even open her eyes, and I only saw her crying."
"……oh?"
I listened, for some reason, but I felt that the sweet soup in my mouth was a little greasy. I held it for a while before I could barely swallow it.
I really can't say that I have any sympathy for Nangong Lizhu, but I heard that a beautiful beauty was so sick, and she felt a little bit unspeakable.
"Later," Miaoyan continued, "Someone outside asked her father out and said she wanted to report something to her father. I remember my mother told me that she could not stay alone in her room, so when my father left, I followed her out too."
I smiled and stroked her hair: "Miaoyan is so good."
She laughed and said, "Then, I heard someone talking to my dad."
"Oh? Who? What did you say?"
"The man was talking to his father in a room, and I didn't see it. As for what they said-" Miaoyan looked up at the beam of the room and thought hard: "It seems to be talking about the condition of the imperial concubine, saying that if it delays tomorrow night and doesn't wake up, it may be very dangerous."
"oh?"
I raised my eyebrows and asked, "Did your father tell you if you want you to go there tomorrow?"
"Yes, Dad said, I'll take me over to see the empress tomorrow."
"oh……"
I slowly put the bowl of half-drink sweet soup on the table, looked at the flashing candlelight, and smiled faintly.
The next day I got up very late, and it seemed like I finally had a chance to sleep in. Su Su and the others came to urge me several times before I got up with Miaoyan. After breakfast, it was actually past Si Shi.
