Qi Xiao and Qi Yu were not there, and Qi Hua refused to show up. Only Qi Youyi and Qi Yue were in the front, and Xu Mingshan kept pestering them. Meanwhile, a male guest of equal status arrived, and they had to entertain him.

The same was true for the female guests. Sometimes it was Madam Qi and Mrs. Liu who came forward, and sometimes it was a few granddaughters-in-law who came forward.

At this moment, Wen Yu was free and was listening to the news Xiao Ji had inquired about. "Mrs. Zhou was not born in our family. She was bought by the old lady Tan when she was the housekeeper. She has always been in the second gate. Her husband is gone, but she has children and grandchildren. But her children and grandchildren are not in the mansion. They have bought houses and land in the suburbs of Beijing. On weekdays, Mrs. Zhou does not fight for life or profit. She just makes a living here! Occasionally, the old lady will call her in, but she is tight-lipped and no one knows what she wants!"

Wen Yu nodded, that was the contact person between Tan and Zhou.

As they were talking, Laba came back and shook his head at Wen Yu: "When I went there again, I ran into Zhou Pozi coming out of the yard. She recognized me and didn't dare to get too close. I can't say for sure whether I got the thing or not. If not, find another night, use the incense to knock them out, and go in to look for them!"

Wen Yu nodded: "We can only find another opportunity!"

Later, Mrs. Zhou went to see Mrs. Tan and took out a small package from her bosom. Mrs. Tan took it and opened it carefully. Inside were three small glass bottles with stoppers sealed with wax.

She knew this stuff and had used it before! It was colorless and odorless.

"No letter?" asked Tan.

"My lord didn't write it. But my lord said..." Mrs. Zhou hesitated to speak.

"What did you say?" Tan frowned.

"My Lord said that this thing is very valuable. The person who made it is dead, and there will be no more of it in the future. And... my Lord said there is one in here, and it is left for you..."

Tan suddenly became furious and glared at Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou wasn't too scared, because she was his. "My Lord said that if you keep playing with fire, you will get burned sooner or later. If that happens, kill yourself first! If you don't want to implicate him, be careful of your children and grandchildren."

Tan's face turned pale with anger, and she cursed in her heart: "Asshole, you should be careful about your children and grandchildren!"

After a busy day, Wen Yu was exhausted. She washed up and went to bed. Qi Wu didn't know where he went. He didn't come back until midnight. When she woke up in the morning, he was gone again.

It was as if he came back and slept next to me yesterday and it was all a dream.

I don't know what he is doing? Wen Yu was a little worried. The recent things were really rushing together! She could not let go of the situation of the prince and the grandson. Since her husband followed the grandson, there must be a good result. Otherwise, no matter how hard she tried, she would have a hard time.

When she finished packing and came out, Zhang Moqing was already waiting for her at the gate.

"Moqing, why are you out so early?"

Zhang Moqing had two big dark circles under his eyes, and it was obvious that he was in a bad mood. "Last night, the fourth master sent a message back that Aunt Liu was not feeling well."

Wen Yu sighed: "To be honest, this is her fate. Even if her injuries healed, her situation couldn't be changed, so how could she feel better?"

Yesterday, her father-in-law was still very angry! If Aunt Liu dares to come back, she will either be killed or thrown into the temple.

"That being said...but the Fourth Master is in pain."

"It's normal for him to feel uncomfortable, but you can't accompany him! Why don't you pretend to be sick again? I'll tell mother. She won't blame you."

"Someone from the Zhang family is coming today. I will hold on a little longer. Don't worry, I know how to handle things. I am looking forward to my grandfather's return, but I am also worried about him coming back."

The two people burned incense and paper money in front of the coffin and then sat aside.

Early in the morning, the concubine sent someone to come, and Madam Qi and Liu came out to entertain. The female official was very familiar with Wen Yu, and Wen Yu pulled her aside without hesitation: "It has been inconvenient to visit her recently. How is she?"

The female official whispered, "The Concubine asked me to tell you that she is fine, don't worry. The Concubine reminds you: The Qi family is not peaceful either, please be careful!"

"Tell the queen that I know, and let her rest assured!"

The female official said: "This year, the Eastern Palace is very quiet. The Crown Princess was assigned to take care of the Crown Princess. There were two disturbances in the middle, but the Concubine suppressed them. The Xue family came during the New Year, and it was received by the Empress. The Xue family was not stupid, so they did not dare to ask further questions.

Mr. Dong Zhan, except for his youngest son, all the others are dead. The crown prince has already found the youngest son and sent the fifth master's men to pick him up. He is expected to be back in the next few days."

Wen Yu said, "Right now, the most important thing for the queen is to protect the baby in her belly. The crown prince and the grandson are wise, so she can rest assured about what's going on outside."

After sending the female official away, at the Wen family, Guan came with Wen Jiao, and Song Shang followed beside them.

The Qi family's grandmother died while giving birth, which made Guan very uneasy. But this matter cannot be underestimated. Who knows how complicated it is! The Qi family is big and powerful, and the competition will definitely be fierce. After completing the ceremony, he held Wen Yu's hand and could not ask too much. He only gave her instructions quietly.

As for Wen Jiao, it seems that she is even more arrogant.

When Wen Yu spoke to her, she just nodded softly.

"You chose this one in the end?" Wen Yu was not surprised.

"Yes, Wen Jiao has met the prince several times and he is quite satisfied with her. The two families started talking after the New Year. However, the person sent by the marquis's mansion to discuss the marriage became very excited when he talked about Wen Jiao's dowry!" Guan shook her head.

"Grandma is so smart, how could she not see it?" Wen Yu wondered.

"Your grandmother is willing! Think about it, she married two girls into the Marquis's Mansion at once, and her son also married a princess. In the capital, this is considered a high-class family, right? She is willing to pay for it! It seems that Wen Jiao's dowry is no less than that of your eldest daughter!"

Wen Yu was unhappy: "That won't do! If she tries to get past me, I'll beat my grandmother and ask her to pay me back!"

Guan tried to suppress her laughter, "There's something funny! The princess didn't interfere in Wen Jiao's affairs, nor did she give any opinions. The old lady wanted her to come forward to discuss the matter so that she could suppress the other party. But the princess immediately turned her face away, which embarrassed the old lady."

"Wen Jiao is not disappointed? Maybe she wants to leave the Princess's Mansion and get married?"

"Don't you see how arrogant she is? She became the wife of the prince right after she entered the family. In the future, she will be the wife of the marquis. As for you, I'm afraid the title of the Qi family will not fall on you, right? It's obviously higher than you!"

Wen Yu shook her head: "Let her fill that big hole with her dowry!"

Guan also shook her head and left.

Song Shang stepped forward: "Ruotong was a little uncomfortable when she woke up early, and her mother was taking care of her at home, so she didn't come."

Wen Yu said, "Has the doctor come to see you?"

"I went to call him. I had to go to the Wen family, so I didn't wait. I'll just take a look around here and then go back. I don't think it's a big deal." Song Shang saw that Wen Yu looked tired, "Is there something wrong with the cause of Grandma Qi's death?"

Wen Yu sighed, "Don't mention it! Several things have happened in the past few days."

She did not hide it from Song Shang and talked about what had happened recently for a long time. When she finished, she felt like she was almost exhausted.

Song Shang listened silently and quickly sorted out his thoughts: "Zhou and Tan have known each other for a long time. Zhou has been robbing people all the way and getting promoted all the way. With Zhou's help, Tan killed Qi Wu's grandmother and became the Marquis's wife. Now she is killing people to win the title for her son. And Aunt Xiuyun may be her biological daughter and related to the Bai family. Zhou helped Song Tao and Yang Xiangdong to get the Song family's property. That's all?"

"My cousin is smart, that's about it."

"No matter how smart I am, I can't be better than these two people! Apart from other things, Tan, a farm girl, was able to get involved with the head of the Bai family and gave birth to a daughter, and then turned around and married the Marquis... Isn't this like a dream? Is she a vixen from Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio?"

"Now that Mu Bo is back, who knows how many exciting stories there will be! However, these are just speculations and there is no evidence. Who is Li Qun and what is his relationship with Lord Zhou? We still don't know. Oh, speaking of this... I want you to check Lord Zhou!"

"Okay! Leave it to me! In addition, my matter... the news has been reported back. The case over there has been closed. They used the name of collusion with bandits to arrest all my people there. It is said that next, the county government will send people to register at the Dali Temple in Beijing, and then they can come to search the Song family, and even take me away.

It’s just… Song Tao suddenly disappeared, which was beyond Mr. Zhou’s expectations. The people he contacted were immediately cleared. I just don’t know what method he will use next.”

Wen Yu said, "Cousin, you don't have to worry too much. You have changed a lot in this life. You bought the title, found out about Song Tao, and married your cousin's wife. I and the Zhang family are helping you. The Wen family is also different from the last life. The most important thing is that you have established a relationship with the crown prince and the crown prince. It won't be as easy for them to touch you as it was in the last life."

Song Shang touched his chin and said, "In theory, his technique is not very sophisticated. How come it is so smooth?"

"The simpler, the more practical. If they set up a trap, their property will be confiscated, and their people will be killed, who will know the truth? Who will overturn the verdict for these people? For example, Master Qing and his nephew, let alone revenge, they don't even know how the Bai family was destroyed! Lord Zhou controls the lives of many officials, and if he gets the money, everyone will share it. There is no risk but the rewards are huge. Who would not follow him?"

"Ayu, if it weren't for you, what would I be like..."

My stinky babies, just one chapter today, really.

I would also like to say this: there is an outline for this article... well, there is.

But as I wrote, many plot points changed.

The following story: Qi Youduan is coming back, Mu Bo is coming back, and the court is still changing. I am also very upset that Wen Feng is still living a good life with a rich woman.

If the rack is not set up properly, it will be very tiring to work on it every day and the results will not be good.

Someone has already reminded me not to just talk about one side, there is also the other side!

So, next, I want to sort out the plot again, set up the framework, and then let Li Daniu have a happy lunch during the May Day holiday...

I am determined not to enter the palace, but I may stop for a while. No matter how long it takes, I will really try my best.

Please understand.
