Chapter 107 Qinghe is pregnant
The more Madam Su thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
At that time, Dingbei Hou Su Yuan was on an inspection tour in Cangzhou and disappeared inexplicably. How could he be in the Su family out of the blue?
Looking at the second master of the Liu family's behavior that day, it didn't seem like he was lying.
Could it be that Su Yuan really suffered?
Thinking of this, Madam Su's hands, which were holding the peach blossom chair, could not stop shaking.
"Old Madam, what should we do now? If we do this, we will alert the enemy."
Madam Su took a deep breath and said, "Send the maid to observe the movements outside the ancestral hall to see what is going on."
"Also... go to the eldest son's courtyard now and ask Mingzhe to come see me."
"How's the preparation of the medicine I asked you to prepare going on at Liu's?"
Nanny Zhang said, "Madam, yesterday I sent a bowl of chicken soup to Hua Ting Garden, and Mrs. Liu has already drunk it."
Old Madam Su sighed deeply.
"That's good. I will make that venomous snake suffer a fate worse than death."
"Go and call Mingzhe."
Aunt Zhang nodded: "Yes, old lady."
When Nanny Zhang arrived at Su Mingzhe's yard, Su Mingzhe was sitting in front of the window, studying an ancient book.
When I looked up, I saw Aunt Zhang from Old Madam Su's side rushing over.
After Nanny Zhang entered the side room, she immediately bowed to Su Mingzhe.
"Master, the old lady wants you to come over."
Su Mingzhe put down the ancient book in his hand, and there was a hint of doubt in his clear Ruifeng eyes.
"I wonder what grandma wants from her grandson?"
Nanny Zhang smiled and said, "This concerns the whereabouts of the old marquis. Please go there, young master."
"Father's whereabouts?"
"Yes," said Aunt Zhang.
Su Mingzhe frowned. Just as he was about to stand up from his chair, he was held down by his personal bodyguard Yun Ling.
Yun Ling whispered, "My Lord, His Royal Highness Prince Li said that your legs cannot be exposed for the time being."
Su Mingzhe nodded and looked at Aunt Zhang.
"I understand. You go back and tell Grandmother first. I'll change my clothes and come over."
"Yes, young master."
After Su Mingzhe changed his clothes, he sat in a wheelchair and was pushed by Yun Ling to Old Madam Su's yard.
He has been staying at home these days, just to let people see his legs.
He couldn't move his legs because of the poisoning.
After Su Yuheng secretly removed the poison, he is now able to move around.
But it will take some time to fully recover to the way it was before.
After entering Old Madam Su's yard, Old Madam Su specially arranged for someone to guard outside the door, fearing that Su Yanqiu's men would come in.
After Su Mingzhe entered the wing room, he bowed to Old Madam Su.
"Grandson, meet your grandmother."
When he raised his eyes, he saw that Madam Su's eyes were red.
"Grandma, why do you look at your grandson like that?"
Old Madam Su shook her head and waved at him.
After Su Mingzhe slid his wheelchair over, he heard Madam Su sobbing, "I'm sorry for making you suffer these past few years."
"How is your leg now?"
Su Mingzhe sighed and said, "Grandma, my grandson's legs are still the same as before."
"Grandma, what's wrong with you today? Why are you crying?"
Old Madam Su shook her head. Her sadness was not because of Su Mingzhe.
But it was the internal strife within the Su family that made her feel disheartened.
"Nothing. I asked you to come here today because I have something to tell you. I know where your father is."
Su Mingzhe frowned.
In fact, he already knew about Prince Li's incident of leading people to break into the ancestral hall, and he could guess about 80% of it.
But there is a nine-linked formation in the ancestral hall, which is superimposed with other formations. If you want to enter, you will be pierced by thousands of arrows.
If you are not careful, you might alert the enemy.
Now that he knew how ruthless his brother was, how could he be so reckless?
She looked at the old lady and asked, "Grandmother, do you know if there are any secret passages in our Su family's ancestral hall?"
"Do you know where the mechanism in the ancestral hall is?"
After Su Mingzhe finished speaking, Old Madam Su looked at him in disbelief.
She trembled slightly and said, "Mingzhe, you... you know?"
Su Mingzhe remained silent and agreed.
There's nothing to hide about this kind of thing.
"If my grandson is right, Yanqiu wants to get the marching order from my father."
"Grandmother, do you know where the marching orders are?"
Madam Su shook her head: "Grandmother is not aware of the marching order."
"However, the secret passageway in the ancestral hall you mentioned is something I've heard Yuan'er talk about before."
"That ancestral hall was designed by your ancestors so that if our mansion were to be in trouble one day, we could take shelter there temporarily."
"But the specific location, I'm afraid, still needs Grandma to think about it."
"Yanqiu has people guarding the ancestral hall now, so grandma can't go in."
Su Mingzhe frowned slightly and asked, "Grandmother, do you have any other ideas? Or do we need to ask the elders of the clan to come and open the ancestral hall?"
Old Madam Su sighed.
"I have to find an opportunity to invite all the elders of the clan and personally open the ancestral hall in front of everyone."
"You should go back first. Grandmother will take some books left by our ancestors and see if we can find the mechanism of the ancestral hall."
"If we find you, Grandmother will send someone to look for you."
"Now that our Su family has someone with wolfish ambitions, we must not alert the snake."
Su Mingzhe nodded, "Yes, Grandma."
After Su Mingzhe left, Nanny Zhang pushed the door open and came in.
"Old Madam, it seems that the eldest son knows everything."
Madam Su sighed: "At this point, we can only plan slowly."
"Last time, I heard that Heng'er and Yanqiu had a falling out because of a woman named Qinghe?"
Nanny Zhang nodded and said, "I heard that the prince and Miss Qinghe were having an affair in the First Floor, and the second lady saw them, and a rift developed between them."
"The other day, the prince wanted to reconcile, so he lit some sweet incense in the Second Miss's yard. And somehow, Madam Liu, sent by the old lady, was on the Second Miss's bed."
"The prince almost had an affair with that Madam Liu..."
Nanny Zhang's words stopped at her lips.
The corners of Old Madam Su's mouth twitched.
"That Aunt Liu is such an idiot. She was asked to watch over Fangfei Garden, and she actually caused such a thing."
"Now, Yanqiu has ordered him to be caned and driven out of the Marquis's residence!"
"What a fool! They never give me peace of mind."
…
The Queen hosted a banquet.
Su Yuheng and Liu Jinshu at the Su family both received invitations.
In Fangfei Garden, Su Yuheng looked at the invitation on the table with a frown.
"Why is the Queen suddenly hosting a banquet when she's fine?"
Bai Lu said, "I heard that this time, they invited some unmarried young men and women."
"Miss, do you think the Queen is interested in that girl and wants to marry Prince Rui?"
Su Yuheng shook her head: "I don't know, but this banquet hosted by the Queen is definitely not that simple. There must be something going on."
As the master and servant were talking, a burst of clear bird calls came from the north side of the wing.
Su Yuheng looked back and saw a figure over there, so he gestured to Bai Lu.
"You go out first."
Bai Lu nodded, turned around and left the room, closing the door.
Linglong came in through the window and knelt in front of Su Yuheng.
"How is it?"
Linglong said, "As Miss expected, Qinghe is pregnant and is already on her way back to the Marquis' Mansion."
"We will arrive at the Su family in half an hour."
"I just don't know if this prince is willing to take responsibility for Miss Qinghe."
Su Yuheng said calmly: "Don't worry, she is pregnant with Su Yanqiu's child. Old Madam Su will let her in, even if it's as a concubine."
