"By the way, I will be transferred to the Ministry of Personnel and serve as the Vice Minister of Personnel, which is the position the Master held before." Xie Jian said, feeling puzzled. The six ministries were all the Crown Prince's confidants. Regarding the Master's affairs, Eunuch Wang would definitely recommend him to the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince had always been suspicious, so how could he gain his trust with just this one thing?
"To the Ministry of Personnel?" Chen Heng was a little surprised. "Wasn't Eunuch Wang originally placing you in the Secretariat to obtain some confidential documents? Are you leaving just like that?"
"This time, in pursuit of the spies, both sides have suffered considerable losses. No one will miss this opportunity to regroup. The Fourth Prince and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince both consider me their man. Regardless of which department I'm in, I'll be of benefit."
"Ajian, you have to be careful." If you are not careful, it will be over, and you have to face it again.
Xie Jian nodded, noticing that his wife's complexion was no longer as pale as it had been the past two days. "Are you feeling better today?"
"It should be fine. Ajian, I suspect someone gave me some medicine." Chen Heng felt like she had accidentally taken too much cold medicine these days, and her head was dizzy. At first, she thought it was caused by someone hitting her neck and injuring her spine, but it didn't feel like that, and the side effects were quite severe.
"The doctor didn't find anything wrong with your body." He asked a doctor to come and check his wife's pulse every day, and even asked a famous doctor.
Chen Heng naturally heard what the doctor said. She didn't set high standards for herself. She just wanted to be healthy, enjoy her meals, and have a successful career. "But I always feel like something's wrong."
"In a couple of days the imperial physician will come to the Meng family to check Mrs. Peng's pulse. I have already told Xuanlang that you should also go and let the imperial physician check it then." Xie Jian said.
"good."
What Chen Heng didn't expect was that after she recovered from her illness, she went to Peng's house not to check Ping'an's pulse, but because Peng fell ill and locked herself in the room and didn't see anyone. Meng Xuanlang was anxious and had to ask Chen Heng to persuade her to see if she could persuade her.
The reason why Mrs. Peng was so angry was that she heard the servants gossiping about the third daughter of the Peng family, Peng Yunrong.
The head of the Meng family beat the servant who gossiped half to death and sent him to a farm outside the city. He also warned that if he heard him gossiping again, he would beat him to death and would not show any leniency.
Seeing Chen Heng, Peng burst into tears. "I had to hide this from you. I really don't want to talk about such a shameful thing. My sister is the youngest, and she has been spoiled and pampered since she was a child. Who could have known that she would develop such a personality, with no regard for the whole family? Now she has been detained. I thought the matter was over, but I didn't expect that the news would have already reached the imperial capital."
"If this happened to my sisters, I wouldn't want to mention it to anyone." Chen Heng looked at the thinner Peng and said gently, "Don't think too much about it. It's just that people in the mansion have said a few things, but no one outside has said anything."
"I hope so. What about you? I heard from Xuanlang that you were sick. I wanted to go see you when you were better, but now that I'm in this state, I want you to come see me instead."
"I'm fine. You can relax too. This is the imperial capital after all, and it's far away from Yuezhou."
"How can I relax? You don't know what the news is like in Yuezhou. My sisters are laughed at, and my sisters who married out go back to their parents' home crying every day." Thinking of the letters sent by her sisters, Peng really hated her half sister.
Chen Heng also sighed. This kind of thing would be criticized in modern times. Peng Yunrong was really confused. The young master of the Si family would at most be accused of being a playboy. Not only would her life be ruined, but she would also implicate her relatives.
"A few days ago, Xuanlang's second aunt went to a tea party and met Princess Ning. After being ridiculed by Princess Ning, she came here to scold me." Thinking of the scene that day, Peng burst into tears again.
"Fortunately, there is Master Xiao Meng who loves you. He will definitely protect you and help you." Chen Heng advised. Some men love their wives but will still waver in their decision, but Meng Xuanlang will definitely not do that.
Thinking of her husband, Mrs. Peng felt better. Her husband really loved her.
Seeing that Peng's expression had eased a little, Shen Heng said to the person waiting beside her, "Qiu Yi, go and get some food for my wife. She can't stand not eating for a day."
"yes."
