Wei Hanzhou ignored her and walked forward.
Liu Tangxi quickly trotted to catch up.
After catching up, she couldn't help but ask about what happened in the palace that day.
But until they got home, Wei Hanzhou didn't say a word.
However, as soon as he arrived at the doorstep, Liu Tangxi discovered something was wrong.
How come there is suddenly a carriage at this door?
They're not here to arrest her!
Liu Tangxi was shocked.
She had just put on a veil and hadn't done anything particularly conspicuous. Would the heroine find her and take her away as soon as she left the house? The heroine was too powerful.
Liu Tangxi began to feel uneasy.
At this time, Lao Zhang came out and saluted Wei Hanzhou and Liu Tangxi, "My lord, Madam, Eunuch Xu from Prince Jin's Mansion is here."
Liu Tangxi breathed a sigh of relief.
But who is the King of Jian? She seemed to have some impression of this name, but not a very deep impression. For a moment, she couldn't remember what kind of image this person had in the book, whether he was good or bad, and what he had done.
Wei Hanzhou walked quickly towards home, and Liu Tangxi followed him.
As soon as I passed the front wall, I saw a eunuch coming out of the main room. Although this was a eunuch, judging by his clothes, he should be of high rank.
"Hello, Lord Xu." Wei Hanzhou saluted.
Seeing this, Liu Tangxi found that he was right. In this dynasty, eunuchs also had ranks, and it seemed that their ranks were not low.
Liu Tangxi also followed suit.
Eunuch Xu leaned half his body to the side and returned the greeting, "You are too polite, Wei Xiuzhuan."
After that, he directly stated the purpose of his visit. "I heard that Wei Xiuzhuan and his wife were not feeling well, so the prince ordered me to come and visit them. This is Doctor Liu from the palace, who specializes in treating motion sickness."
Liu Tangxi finally found out the identities of these people.
But at the same time, she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten something. Before she left the house, she was still thinking about Wei Hanzhou's health and wanted to find a clinic to take him to see a doctor, but once she left the house, ate delicious wontons, and heard interesting stories, she forgot about it.
Fortunately, this King Jian did not forget about them.
Although he was pretending to be checking their motion sickness symptoms, Liu Tangxi and Wei Hanzhou both understood what he meant. In fact, he was checking their poisoning.
Since this doctor came from the palace, he must have very advanced medical skills, much better than those doctors in the clinics outside. Therefore, the two of them did not pretend and directly let the doctor take their pulses.
After the doctor took my pulse, he said, "Your motion sickness symptoms are almost gone. If you are still worried, you can take some medicine. My wife is fine now. No need to take medicine. Just rest for a few days and she will be fine."
Liu Tangxi understood, which meant that Wei Hanzhou still had poison in his body, but it was relatively mild. She was fine.
That being the case, she felt relieved.
"Thank you, doctor."
"You are very kind, sir."
Although they both suffered an undeserved disaster because of the King Jian, he came to visit them afterwards, so they couldn't be blamed. If anyone was to blame, it could only be the person who harmed them.
Liu Tangxi actually had a better impression of the prince.
"I don't know the county
"Have the car sickness symptoms been alleviated?" Liu Tangxi asked casually.
The doctor didn't answer.
Eunuch Xu smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Madam. The prince and the princess are both fine now."
"Um."
After taking the pulse, Eunuch Xu took his people away.
What they left behind, besides a large bag of medicinal herbs, was also silver, jewelry, and several pieces of expensive cloth.
Liu Tangxi had declined politely, but the father-in-law just smiled and didn't say much. It was so embarrassing that she didn't know what to say.
After the father-in-law left, Liu Tangxi asked, "Will it be true? It's too expensive?"
Although they drank the poisoned tea, they were not poisoned too deeply, they were just a little frightened. Besides, she just cooked a meal for the princess and the prince, so wasn't this too much of a thank you?
Wei Hanzhou lowered his eyes and said, "Keep it."
He thought, if it weren't for my wife, the prince and princess would probably be...
I'm afraid that not only Prince Jian and the princess, but he will also not be able to escape.
Thinking of this, Wei Hanzhou looked at Liu Tangxi who was sitting next to him.
Liu Tangxi was staring at the thing in front of him, thinking for a while, looking at Wei Hanzhou, and asked in a low voice, "Doesn't this include hush money?"
The term "hush money" was indeed new. Wei Hanzhou was stunned for a moment before he reacted. However, he thought the term was very appropriate.
Seeing Wei Hanzhou's reaction, Liu Tangxi felt that he had guessed correctly, and muttered softly, "What's there to say about this matter? I hope that no one knows that we are traveling with them. After all, what if the person who wants to assassinate him comes after us?"
After mumbling a few words, Liu Tangxi wanted to go and make medicine for Wei Hanzhou.
Mrs. Chen quickly took it over.
Liu Tangxi wanted to follow but was stopped by Wei Hanzhou.
"If you continue like this, Aunt Chen will probably feel useless and be kicked out."
Liu Tangxi immediately understood what Wei Hanzhou meant.
She was used to doing everything by herself, so she was not used to this.
After a while, Liu Tangxi suddenly remembered a question that had not been answered, and continued to ask, "Wait, don't change the subject. What happened in the palace that day?"
Wei Hanzhou glanced at her and said nothing.
When they entered the main room, Liu Tangxi saw that he still didn't say anything, so he called him, "Hey, Wei Hanzhou, if you don't say anything, I'll be angry."
Now there were only the two of them at home, and Wei Hanzhou was the only one she was familiar with. If Wei Hanzhou ignored her again, she would be bored to death.
"I'm so angry!"
Wei Hanzhou stopped, turned to look at Liu Tangxi, and sighed slightly.
Then, the two of them sat on the chairs, and Wei Hanzhou recounted what happened that day in his cold and dry tone.
"The prince said..."
"Expression! Pay attention to his expression! The prince's expression certainly wasn't so cold when he said this, right?"
Wei Hanzhou: "..."
"The Third Prince said..."
"Are you sure that the Third Prince didn't have a trace of pride on his face when he said this?"
Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi and tried to stand up from the chair.
Liu Tangxi quickly grabbed
Holding Han Zhou's hand, she put on a flattering smile and said, "I'm just joking, husband, please continue."
Whether it was the Crown Prince or the Third Prince, these people were all characters she had seen in books. Even though she had received some of the memories of the original owner, she still felt very unfamiliar with them.
Looking at Wei Hanzhou's cold expression, she always felt a little out of place.
Next, Wei Hanzhou spoke with a little more expression, not so cold anymore, and Liu Tangxi also listened attentively with his chin in his hand.
However, she felt that Wei Hanzhou must be hiding something, because that's what he said.
"…The Emperor proposed it, but I refused, so the matter is over."
"Impossible, he must have said something else."
Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi and added, "Prime Minister Zheng helped to say a few words."
Zheng Xiang... She hadn't remembered this character before Wei Hanzhou mentioned him, but as soon as he mentioned him, she remembered him.
She remembered that after the third prince ascended the throne, he wanted Prime Minister Zheng to continue to serve as prime minister, but Prime Minister Zheng refused and then resigned and retired.
However, Wei Hanzhou was actually trying to change the subject?
She won't be fooled!
"What did the emperor say? How did you refuse at that time? Tell me more specifically."
Wei Hanzhou glanced at her.
Liu Tangxi pinched Wei Hanzhou's sleeve and urged, "Hurry up and tell me!"
In the past, Liu Tangxi's move was always successful. However, today, Wei Hanzhou did not compromise, but said, "Ministers do not criticize the king."
Seeing Wei Hanzhou, the treacherous minister, saying such things in a serious manner, Liu Tangxi felt extremely discordant.
Pooh!
The book says that he superficially flatters the emperor, but in fact he works for the crown prince, and together with the crown prince deal with the third prince, and at the same time he also wants to overthrow the emperor and rebel.
Such a bold and presumptuous person, no, he was so audacious that he actually told her that "a minister should not criticize his monarch."
Seeing Wei Hanzhou go to the study room next door without looking back, Liu Tangxi curled her lips, thinking that this man was quite boring.
Did he really think he could only ask him alone? There must have been many people present that day, and she would have plenty of opportunities to find out later.
Perhaps seeing Liu Tangxi's displeasure, Wei Hanzhou spoke again, "Madam, weren't you curious about the affairs of Huang Fucheng's family just now?"
Liu Tangxi's attention was immediately diverted, and he said excitedly, "Yes, tell me quickly."
Then, Wei Hanzhou told Liu Tangxi about the two wives in Huang Fucheng's family.
After listening to this, Liu Tangxi said with a sigh, "That Huang Fucheng also asked for it. He wanted to divorce his wife after becoming an official. There is no such a good thing. He deserves to be caught in the middle and suffer."
Seeing that Liu Tangxi no longer mentioned the palace banquet, Wei Hanzhou breathed a sigh of relief.
"But, my husband, I didn't realize that you are such a gossipy person, and you even inquire about such things." Liu Tangxi said with a smile.
Wei Hanzhou's face suddenly turned dark.
Liu Tangxi quickly comforted her, "Oh, I said the wrong thing. It was my husband who had everything under control. My husband is amazing! Remember to find out more about this kind of thing and tell me about it in the future."
Wei Hanzhou sneered, stood up and walked towards the study.
He is the top scholar in the imperial examination. Does she really think he is some gossipy person?
Liu Tangxi didn't care about Wei Hanzhou's attitude and listened to the gossip.
, she was happy. Seeing that it was getting late, she went to take a bath.
Although she was about to face a lot of troubles after arriving in the capital, there were also some things that made her very satisfied, such as bathing.
She finally had a private room to shower. Looking at the modern shower head, Liu Tangxi felt grateful to the time-traveling heroine. People who traveled through time and space and are smart are amazing. They have time to come up with these convenient things.
Liu Tangxi took a bath very happily.
However, she felt that it was necessary to buy a bathtub so that she could soak in it and relieve fatigue when she had nothing to do.
After washing, Liu Tangxi went out.
Wei Hanzhou hasn't come back yet.
Liu Tangxi took a look at the bed and tidied it up simply.
She was so tired today that she had no time to pack her luggage. The bedding, quilt, pillows, etc. on the bed were all new, so she just laid them out and used them.
As soon as the floor was laid, Wei Hanzhou came back.
Liu Tangxi tidied up and went to bed.
After a while, Wei Hanzhou also came out of the purification room.
The two of them had slept together for many days, and they had been sleeping together all the way. But she was so uncomfortable on the way that she basically fell asleep as soon as she lay down.
Now that he suddenly didn't have to rush on the road, lying on his bed in his own house, Liu Tangxi suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
She was originally very sleepy, but at this moment, she couldn't fall asleep.
The feeling of the capital is completely different from that of the countryside.
The countryside is a very quiet place. Even if there are sounds of insects and wind blowing through branches, it seems even quieter.
But the capital city is not so quiet.
After lying down for a long time, Liu Tangxi felt very bored and wanted to talk to Wei Hanzhou.
But when she thought that Wei Hanzhou had to go to court early the next morning, she didn't dare to disturb him.
She didn't fall asleep, and neither did Wei Hanzhou.
"My lady, you don't need to worry about outside opinions. Your husband has already explained your identity to the emperor. The storyteller deliberately made it up to attract people."
This is why Wei Hanzhou said that the stories told by storytellers are only partially true.
Hearing this, Liu Tangxi immediately became interested.
In fact, the storyteller was not completely making it up. If she had not met Li, she would have been sold to a brothel. It was just that she was lucky to meet Li.
"For a girl as beautiful as me, I think the trafficker wanted to sell me to a brothel, but I met my mother along the way, so I married my husband."
Hearing this, Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi and asked, "Madam, aren't you worried about people saying you were born in a brothel?"
Liu Tangxi said, "Of course not. Why should I worry about this? I didn't really come from a brothel, and the storyteller praised me as a man of affection and righteousness and a fairy."
Listening to Liu Tangxi's cheerful and somewhat complacent tone, Wei Hanzhou suddenly realized that his worries were unnecessary.
"Go to sleep."
Liu Tangxi felt that the topic had just started and was about to start talking, but Wei Hanzhou suddenly stopped talking.
He was clearly the one who brought up the topic, but it ended after just a few words?
What's wrong with this person?
"My husband, don't you feel that?"
Wei Hanzhou closed his eyes and said nothing.
"Husband?"
Wei Hanzhou still didn't speak.
This Wei Goudan is a taciturn person.
Wait--
"You're not shy or embarrassed again, are you?" As he spoke, Liu Tangxi moved closer to Wei Hanzhou, leaning his upper body against Wei Hanzhou, trying to see clearly the expression on his face at the moment.
Unexpectedly, Wei Hanzhou suddenly opened his eyes.
Looking at the light in those eyes, Liu Tangxi's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He quickly lay back in his seat and said quickly, "If you don't want to talk, then don't talk. It's getting late. Let's go to sleep."
Wei Hanzhou thought of the softness on the back of his hand just now and sighed slightly.
Liu Tangxi was really tired after being on the road these days. For the first time since coming to this world, he slept until noon before getting up.
I heard from Mrs. Chen that Wei Hanzhou went to court before dawn, and she even cooked for him.
The tone was exactly the same as what Wei Hanzhou said yesterday. He wanted to show off and not be rejected.
"Thank you for your hard work, Aunt Chen."
Mrs. Chen was startled by the title and said quickly, "Madam, what are you talking about? This is what I should do."
After breakfast, Liu Tangxi started to clean up the house.
It didn't look like much, but it took until noon to pack it all up.
After packing, she made a list of all the things she needed to buy.
After lunch, Liu Tangxi began to feel dazed.
There was something that she had always rejected but had to be put on the agenda, and that was returning to Marquis Huai'en's Mansion.
She had never thought of taking advantage of the Marquis's Mansion, nor had she thought of using the original owner's identity to improve herself, but, after all, it was the original owner's home. Since she had taken over someone else's body, she had to go back and take a look. Moreover, even if she didn't take the initiative to go back, she would be discovered sooner or later.
This is not something she can avoid just because she wants to.
But there is a female protagonist there who seems to have betrayed the original owner.
Moreover, the original owner had bullied the heroine since childhood.
According to the plot in the book, after the original owner returned, she had a quarrel with the heroine and went to the Marquis to accuse the heroine, saying that the heroine had harmed her. As a result, the Marquis locked her up in the family temple and threw a stone at her feet.
After she goes back, will the heroine deal with her?
Now it has been two years since she finished reading the book, and she has been living in the villain's extra story for the past two years. She has no connection with the plot in the book and has long forgotten some of the plot.
She remembered that apart from the heroine, Marquis Huai En didn't seem to like the original owner very much, right?
If she goes back, will Marquis Huai En still dislike her?
In addition to his father, the original owner also had a mother, who was the heroine's biological mother.
The stepmother in the book has a similar temperament to the original owner, and is even more vicious. She schemes to frame the heroine everywhere and wants to kill her.
However, the novel is written from the perspective of the heroine, so naturally it leans towards the heroine.
After all, the stepmother is the original owner's biological mother, so she should be pretty good to the original owner.
This person should be the only person in the Marquis' Mansion who can be kind to the original owner.
However, she seemed to remember that the stepmother died not long after she died. The stepmother wanted to kill the heroine but failed to do so and instead took herself with her.
Now that two years have passed, it must be no longer the case. Marquis Huai En married another concubine, who had some connections with the mother of the third prince, and treated the heroine very well.
Alas, what a pity, the only person who might be on her side is gone.
If she entered the Marquis's Mansion like this, would she be secretly killed by the heroine and her stepmother?
Liu Tangxi sat at the door of the main hall for an hour.
Before she could think it through, Lao Zhang suddenly came hurriedly over.
"Madam, there is a carriage at the door. A maid said she is here to deliver a letter to you on behalf of her mistress. Do you want to see her?"
Liu Tangxi was slightly surprised, stood up from his chair and said, "Let her in."
"Yes, ma'am."
Soon, three people appeared in the yard, a nanny who was about forty years old, followed by two little girls in their teens.
Although the nanny was a servant, after she came in, her eyes kept staring at Liu Tangxi.
There seemed to be surprise and some contempt in his eyes.
Liu Tangxi didn't say anything and just let the nanny watch.
The nanny looked at it for a long time, and finally seemed to remember why she came, and said with a smile, "I have seen the madam."
Liu Tangxi said calmly, "You're too polite, Ma'am."
The nanny quickly stood up straight, with a look of arrogance in her eyes, and took the invitation from the little girl, saying, "Now that the peonies are in bloom, my wife is holding a flower viewing banquet at home, and would like to invite you to our house. Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention that our house is the Wenchang Marquis's House."
Speaking of the word "Marquis' Mansion", the nanny became even more proud.
When Liu Tangxi heard about the Wenchang Marquis's Mansion, she thought about it carefully. Wenchang Marquis and Huai'en Marquis were both marquisates with similar status and position, so the original owner must have been there often. If she was really a well-known maid, she would definitely know the original owner.
I guess this nanny doesn't have much face at home.
Instead, he set up a plan in front of her.
Liu Tangxi had no intention of arguing with her. Thinking of the things that had been bothering her for a long time, she asked, "Will all the people from the marquis' mansions in the capital go?"
"Of course. In three days, all the prominent families in the capital will go. They are all families of the fifth rank and above. My master admires the talent of the number one scholar, so he asked his wife to invite you."
This tone has a feeling of charity.
Liu Tangxi didn't want to say anything at first, but this man was so arrogant that no matter how good-tempered she was, she couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.
"I wonder if this nanny is one of the maids serving the wife of Marquis Wenchang. Is she in charge of money and clothes, or the kitchen and groceries? Or is she the nanny of Marquis Wenchang's son in the outer courtyard?"
The nanny was feeling proud, but when she heard this, the smile on her face faded a lot.
"Otherwise, how could Madam know what the Marquis meant, as if she had seen it with her own eyes?"
The nanny showed a guilty expression on her face, and there was some surprise in her eyes. Wasn't it said that this top scholar was bought from a human trafficker? How could she know so much?
"I have accepted the invitation. If you have nothing else to do, please go back. Nanny Chen, please show me around."
After saying that, Liu Tangxi took the note and went into the house.
Even in the criminal's house, Aunt Chen was just a janitor who did rough work. Now that Liu Tangxi had called her to be a nanny, she was immediately very excited.
He straightened his back and said loudly, "Old sister, please come in!"
The nanny glared at Aunt Chen and cursed, "Who is your sister?"
However, seeing that Liu Tangxi had already gone in, she turned around and left angrily.
After returning to Wenchang Marquis Mansion, when people asked about Liu Tangxi, she naturally would not tell others that Liu Tangxi had criticized her. Instead, she said a lot of bad things about Liu Tangxi, such as being unsophisticated, not presentable, and having beauty for nothing.
Liu Tangxi changed her mind after seeing the attitude of the nanny at Wenchang Marquis's Mansion and the post.
Since it is not easy to go to Marquis Huai'en's Mansion secretly, it is better to go openly.
Amnesia is a perfect excuse.
Now that she is the wife of the top scholar, and there are so many legends about her outside, even if the heroine knows that she has returned, she will be cautious and dare not confront her openly. Then she will treat the Marquis's Mansion as her own wife and go back to take a look and come back.
After figuring it out, Liu Tangxi turned back to the house, took out the cloth sent by Prince Jin's Mansion yesterday, and started making clothes for himself.
Since there are so many people in the capital who want to meet her and know her, she might as well meet them all at once, and then she will feel relieved.
When it was getting dark in the evening, Wei Hanzhou returned from the Hanlin Academy.
He looked very busy and went to his study after dinner.
Liu Tangxi was busy making clothes and was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Because she had made clothes for Li and her family before, Liu Tangxi was quite familiar with the process. On the afternoon of the second day, she had finished sewing the clothes. After sewing them, she began to embroider something on the clothes.
The dress was Xiang Fei's color, so she embroidered green branches and leaves on the cuffs and collar.
The original Xiangfei color looked a bit gaudy on her, but after the green branches and leaves were embroidered on it, it added a bit of freshness and loveliness.
Liu Tangxi is very satisfied with his craftsmanship.
While I was admiring it, Wei Hanzhou came back from outside.
Liu Tangxi walked to the door of the main hall wearing new clothes and smiled brightly at him.
The eyes were curved, and the long, curled eyelashes moved slightly. The small mouth was slightly open, revealing white teeth.
With this smile, the original nine-point color now turned into ten points, and the dark sky suddenly became a few points brighter.
Wei Han’s boat paused slightly.
"Does it look good?" Liu Tangxi asked while pulling the edge of her skirt.
Wei Hanzhou's eyes were full of surprise, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and he said, "It looks good."
Liu Tangxi looked at Wei Hanzhou with satisfaction and said, "Well, you finally spoke human words."
Wei Hanzhou...
"Oh, this dress is too expensive, I have to take it off quickly to prevent it from getting dirty." With that, she slammed the door in front of her and then locked it with a click.
Liu Tangxi has gotten used to this. Before, when she was in Weijia Village, she would close the door every time she changed clothes without considering Wei Hanzhou much.
Wei Hanzhou looked at the closed door in front of him and sighed slightly.
The author has something to say so don't rush me, it will be recognized in the next chapter.
