Chapter 389: Attracting the Snake
The next day, Aunt Bai regained her freedom.
Lu He's confidant came to deliver the order to release Aunt Bai from her guard, and brought a court doctor to see Aunt Bai.
Aunt Bai took the opportunity to inquire about Lu He's condition, with a look of anxiety and concern.
The court doctor answered truthfully, saying that Lu He's heart was damaged and he had to rest for several days. After recovering from the illness, his health was not as good as before.
Aunt Bai was heartbroken and cried, feeling both self-blame and worry.
As Lu He's favorite concubine, Aunt Bai's reaction was reasonable and impeccable.
After sending the court doctor away, the maid applied medicine to Aunt Bai and said, "The Marquis still loves Aunt Bai. Even though he was still sick, he didn't forget to save Aunt Bai."
Aunt Bai didn't answer after hearing this, and lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.
The weather was fine, and Jiang Shu went to look for Su Rou after breakfast.
When passing the garden, she ran into Shen Qingrong halfway.
Jiang Shu frowned subconsciously and didn't want to pay attention.
But Shen Qingrong stopped her and said, "Princess, shouldn't old friends reminisce about the past when they meet?"
What old stories could they reminisce about?
However, Jiang Shu understood that Shen Qingrong must be waiting for her here on purpose. If she didn't reminisce about the past with her, Shen Qingrong would not let it go. Anyway, she
would leave tomorrow and it would be difficult for her to come again in the future. It would be okay to say a few words to her to save her from pestering.
Jiang Shu turned his head and looked at the pavilion not far away, and walked over.
Shen Qingrong quickly followed, and Leng Xing and the maid who led the way stood guard ten steps away from the pavilion.
The two entered the pavilion, and Jiang Shu said straight to the point: "What do you want to say?"
Shen Qingrong stared at her and asked the doubts that troubled her: "How did you and King Jing know each other, and when did it start?"
Jiang Shu was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "This is a private matter, I can't tell you."
Pingyang is too far away from Shangjing, and many things cannot be reported here. In addition, Shen Qingrong is not allowed to leave the house and cannot understand the outside world. She has never heard that Jiang Shu has saved Yu Zheng.
Therefore, Shen Qingrong firmly believes that Jiang Shu used her to get Yu Zheng.
"I think you are guilty, it's because of that letter, right!"
Shen Qingrong stared at Jiang Shu closely, her face full of jealousy and hatred.
Her love letter did not let her get what she wanted, but instead made wedding clothes for Jiang Shu. How can she be willing and hate!
Listening to these outrageous remarks and looking at Shen Qingrong's distorted face, Jiang Shu snorted in disbelief.
In Shen Qingrong's eyes, this response was acquiescence, ridicule, pride, and showing off!
Shen Qingrong clenched his hands angrily and glared at Jiang Shu angrily, wanting to pounce on her and tear her to pieces.
Jiang Shu had seen this look so many times that he was too lazy to pay attention to it, so he wrote lightly: "You and I have nothing to do with King Jing."
"The Lu family is a rare good family. I advise you to cherish yourself."
After saying that, Jiang Shu walked away.
Shen Qingrong stared at Jiang Shu's back fiercely, with a sinister smile on his lips.
Yes, she must cherish the Lu family's wealth and honor.
After getting rid of Shen Qingrong, Jiang Shu went to Su Rou's yard.
Su Rou, who was coaxing Lu Sui'an, heard the maid say that Jiang Shu was coming, and hurriedly carried Lu Sui'an out of the house to greet him.
"Princess." Su Rou welcomed Jiang Shu to the side hall and ordered someone to serve tea.
After Jiang Shu sat down, he stretched out his hand to Lu Sui'an and said, "Sui'an, come and hug me."
Lu Sui'an was not too shy, and she had met Jiang Shu two days ago and liked her very much, so she did not resist.
Jiang Shu held Lu Sui'an in his arms and teased her, and the more he teased her, the more he liked her.
"Sui'an is so cute, I want a daughter."
Su Rou smiled and joked, "The prince will be very happy to hear this."
Jiang Shu blushed slightly and coughed lightly, "It's useless for him to be happy, children are all up to fate, and he can't decide."
Su Rou nodded in agreement, and finally said, "But if you have more children, you may get what you want."
Jiang Shu said, "If you want to have children, it should be your husband. Master Lu will definitely be happy."
Su Rou replied smartly, "It's useless for him to be happy, children are all up to fate, and he can't decide."
"Puchi——" The two looked at each other and burst out laughing.
Jiang Shu and Su Rou get along very well, but it's a pity that they have to leave tomorrow and don't know when they will see each other again.
Lu Sui'an played with Jiang Shu for a while and wanted his mother again.
Jiang Shu returned her to Su Rou, and took out a fist-sized brocade box from his sleeve and said, "This is for Sui An."
Su Rou took it and opened it. When she saw the longevity lock in the box, her eyes immediately turned red.
"Thank you, Princess."
She did not refuse. She knew that Jiang Shu was sincere, especially after seeing the words engraved on the back of the longevity lock. "
May you be healthy and happy every year."
These four words not only contain the sincere blessings for Lu Sui An, but also contain Lu Sui An's name.
The gift is expensive, but the thought is even more important.
Children are full of curiosity about everything. Lu Sui An saw the beautiful longevity lock in Su Rou's hand and reached out to take it.
"Does Sui An like it?" Jiang Shu asked teasingly.
Lu Sui'an cried out twice, tossed and turned, looked left and right, and refused to let go.
It seemed that she liked it.
Jiang Shu smiled, and after Lu Sui'an had enough fun, he put it on her personally.
The two talked for a while, and Lu Sui'an was hungry, so Jiang Shu got up and said goodbye.
Knowing that Jiang Shu was leaving tomorrow, Su Rou said reluctantly: "After Sui'an takes a nap in the afternoon, I will go to find the princess and go to the viewing building to enjoy the scenery."
"Okay." Jiang Shu smiled and agreed.
Anyway, she had nothing to do, so drinking tea and chatting with Su Rou would not be so boring.
When Jiang Shu returned to the guest house, Yu Zheng had not returned yet, so she and Leng Xing packed up their boxes and prepared to leave tomorrow.
Before lunch, Yu Zheng returned to the guest house and had lunch with Jiang Shu.
Similarly, Su Rou and Lu Mingke were also having dinner.
However, just after eating two bites, the servant came in in a hurry and reported: "Sir, the young lady and Aunt Bai are in the viewing tower."
Lu Mingke put down his chopsticks and sneered: "They are really impatient."
Lu Mingke originally thought that Aunt Bai would avoid the limelight and take action in two days, but she didn't expect them to be so impatient. "
Let's go to the viewing tower." Lu Mingke stood up neatly.
Su Rou didn't understand, so she stood up and asked: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Lu Mingke said: "Go and see and you will know."
It was very late when he came back last night, and he didn't tell Su Rou because he was afraid that Su Rou would be worried.
Su Rou was confused and followed Lu Mingke to the viewing tower.
It was dinner time, and everyone in the mansion was having dinner. The garden was quiet and deserted.
Shen Qingrong and Aunt Bai were talking in the viewing tower, and they did not see Lu Mingke bringing people.
When they heard footsteps and the maid came in to remind them, Lu Mingke had already gone upstairs.
"What should we do?" Aunt Bai was panicked and anxious like an ant on a hot pot.
Shen Qingrong calmed herself and said, "Don't panic, just deal with it as we said before."
They deliberately chose noon when everyone was having dinner and no one was walking around in the mansion to meet, but they didn't expect something to go wrong.
Shen Qingrong took a deep breath, pulled Aunt Bai and walked quickly to the viewing platform, pretending to look at the scenery.
Aunt Bai grabbed the fence with both hands to relieve the tension in her heart.
