When Zheng heard her husband's sincere confession, all the pain and discomfort in her heart disappeared.
The couple reconciled and couldn't help but think of their sister-in-law Song Ruoxue.
"This girl is very clever. If it weren't for her, we would have never gotten through this crisis." Song Zhi said, "What about that girl? A few days ago, she fell in love with a piece of clothing and pestered me for a long time, but I didn't buy it for her. Today, she coaxed my wife back, so I bought it for her."
Zheng chuckled at the side: "Now it's probably not your turn to buy things."
She saw that her sister-in-law Song Ruoxue and the young master of the Marquis's Mansion were in a hot relationship, and she was afraid that good news would come out soon. In fact, it was good this way. The Marquis's Mansion had a good reputation, and the girl's life was simple. If she went to such a family, she would not be afraid of encountering any dirty things.
She also thought that from what she saw today, Gu Shaohe should be sincere to the girl, so she would not be afraid that she would suffer any grievances in the future.

Since the matter of the beauty pageant had been put aside and there was no major event to attend to in the court during this period, Gu Yanwei put the actual wedding with Shen Qingqiu on the agenda.
But Shen Qingqiu was a person who could not sit still. She felt a little annoyed just trying on clothes in the palace. Gu Yanwei knew the temper of his queen. The wedding was already prepared, and they were just waiting for the auspicious time. He simply took his queen out of the palace for another trip.
After the enthronement ceremony, Shen Qingqiu will be the official mother of the nation.
Not to mention others, she herself would also ask herself to take on this responsibility, and maybe she would not go out so often in the future. So this might be her most relaxed trip without any burden on her shoulders.
"Where do you want to go?" Gu Yanwei asked her.
Shen Qingqiu said: "Let's go...to the border." She wanted to see the place where the martyrs of the Gu family died on the battlefield.
Gu Yanwei naturally agreed, and the wheels started rolling, and the group quickly headed out of the pass.
"It's okay if he dies, but it also saves food for our palace!"
Lin Mingzhu opened her eyes hazily and saw only a few blurry figures walking back and forth in front of her.
——
"Don't dream about it. This vicious woman has made Miss Chun unconscious. It's good enough that she's not killed now! She's also treating her!"
"You deserve to die!"
Following these people's cold words, Lin Mingzhu then remembered that she was sent by her ruthless grandparents to replace her twin sister Lin Mingyue... They clearly had the same blood flowing in their bodies, but her grandparents wanted her to die rather than Lin Mingyue to die.
Lin Mingzhu felt a slight pain in her heart.
But at this moment, someone next to him spoke.
"Girl, what should I do? You have such a high fever. If you don't take medicine, your body will be burned out!"
Lin Mingzhu raised her head slightly and saw the girl in front of her with double-ring buns and tears in her eyes. She gritted her teeth and said, "I will go back to our Lin family. The palace doesn't want to hire a doctor for you. The master and the mistress will definitely..." Before she finished her words, the dying person had already grabbed her sleeve.
“Don’t go…”
"Girl, girl, you're awake!" Luan Cui wiped her tears quickly, "Where else do you feel uncomfortable?"
Lin Mingzhu felt uncomfortable all over. How could a person with a fever feel comfortable? But she could only endure it. It was already this late. Not to mention whether she could go out or not, she would probably have burned herself to death by the time she came back.
Lin Mingzhu's lips were pale, and she only ordered: "I have a very high fever. Get some water from the well in the yard and apply ice to my forehead. If my body temperature doesn't drop, take off all my clothes." She looked around and happened to see a pot of the best Huadiao wine on the kitchen. She pointed at it and said: "Get it and apply it evenly on my body with a handkerchief."
"But girl, that wine is for drinking..." Before Luan Cui finished her words, Lin Mingzhu had fallen asleep.
Her head was so swollen and painful, this was the only way to cool it down. Unable to control herself any longer, Lin Mingzhu soon fell asleep.
I don’t know how much time passed.
"Miss, you're awake. That's great. I was scared to death!" Luan Cui patted her chest and clasped her hands together. "God bless you, God bless you." Lin Mingzhu smelled the smell of alcohol on herself and guessed that it was Luan Cui who smeared alcohol on her, which lowered her temperature a little.
Lin Mingzhu's mind cleared up a little, and she asked Luan Cui to open the window in a hoarse voice, saying, "You stay with me at night. If my temperature rises again, you can drink more wine."
Lin Mingzhu said: "Also... I am not Lin Mingyue..."
Luan Cui said: "Miss, I followed you and of course I know who you are. If you hadn't taken care of me back then, I would have died on the battlefield...Miss, don't worry, I will definitely take you out of the palace safely!"
Lin Mingzhu looked at her face and then she remembered, "It's you." It was the medicine boy she had accidentally sent down when she was picking herbs before.
Luan Cui naturally nodded with bright eyes, and Lin Mingzhu held her hand, "Thank you."
"Girl, what are you talking about?" Before she could finish her words, Lin Mingzhu had already fallen asleep.
The next day, when she heard the birds chirping, Lin Mingzhu woke up and touched her head. Her high fever had subsided. But even if the high fever subsided, her life might not be saved.
Luan Cui told her what had happened recently, which really surprised her.
Her younger sister, Lin Mingzhu, was the legitimate daughter of the general's mansion. She grew up outside the Great Wall and was spoiled, so she had no rules and was a wild girl.
Prince Ning, who was attracted by the beauty of the girl at the martial arts arena, designed a drama to destroy his innocence. However, because his father, General Gu, was guarding the border outside the Great Wall, Prince Ning had to marry her no matter how crude the drama was.
It stands to reason that with such a father, Prince Ning would respect her even if he didn't love her. But she played a good card badly and actually harmed Li Chun... Prince Ning's most beloved concubine!
He even aborted the fetus in the woman's belly. Now King Ning wants her to pay with her life! Lin Mingyue should have paid with her life, but she was lucky to have grandparents who truly loved her... He actually called her back from Yan State and gave her a prescription. When she woke up, the cat replaced the prince. Lin Mingyue could live with her identity, but she had to die in her place.
Lin Mingzhu was having a headache thinking about it... She couldn't understand why she was so unloved despite being a twin sister with the same face.
Just at this moment, a sound suddenly came from outside.
"Bitch, you bitch, I'm going to beat you to death today!!"
A fat old woman jumped out from nowhere. Before Lin Mingzhu could react, she had already slapped herself hard, "Bitch, I will take you away even if I die!" Fortunately, Luan Cui and the other maids who followed her stopped her tightly, so Lin Mingzhu was not knocked down by her.
"That's enough, Sister Wang. Instead of wasting time, why not ask the prince to find a doctor for Hongying? Maybe she can still be saved."
"Why waste your time talking to this bitch? When the matter is settled in a few days, this bitch will die sooner or later!"
Lin Mingzhu raised her head and glanced at several people with her dark eyes. Perhaps they were not prepared for such a look from her. The one who spoke to stop Old Lady Wang was startled, but soon she glared at her fiercely again, "Bitch, what are you looking at?!"
Of course, Lin Mingzhu knew that she had to bow her head when she was under someone else's roof. After all the maids left, she covered her cheek, which was in unbearable pain. Luan Cui, who was standing beside her, was both distressed and angry, "Why is Madam Wang like this?"
Lin Mingzhu looked to the side and asked, "What's going on?"
Luan Cui said: "It seems that Hongying is not doing well...but what does that have to do with me? I'm here to bully you!"
Lin Mingzhu is a doctor, even a national expert of Yan State, of course she can treat illnesses? But why did she save Hongying, because her mother slapped her? Lin Mingzhu touched her face, with thousands of thoughts in her eyes.
"Doctor, how is it? Can my daughter be saved?"
Old Lady Wang looked at the old doctor in front of him pitifully. The doctor stroked his beard and shook his head, saying, "How can we save her? The child is already seven months old and you insist on having an abortion. Now, let alone the child, you can't even save her!"
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she immediately knelt on the ground and started to cry after a while, "Hongying, Hongying! I am sorry for you! I am sorry for you!"
Some time ago, Hongying's husband, who was also the long-time attendant of Prince Ning in the palace, was sent out to join the army, but he died right after he went to the battlefield. Hongying became a widow at a young age, and the old lady Wang didn't want her daughter to have a burden and it would be difficult to remarry, so she bought abortion drugs at a high price. Who would have thought that it would not work after eating a human being?
Looking at the miserable old man crying, the old doctor sighed, "Okay, let's find a good coffin."
Lin Mingzhu heard it from a distance and silently thought of him as a quack doctor.
"I can cure Hongying's disease. I'll go and take a look."
When she heard someone say this, Old Lady Wang turned around like a drowning person holding onto a floating board. “Why is it you?!” Her voice was so sharp that it could burst one’s eardrums. “You bitch!”
"It's not enough that you've harmed Hongying, you're also making sarcastic remarks!!"
"I harmed Hongying?"
Before Lin Mingzhu finished speaking, Luan Cui couldn't help but say, "It was you who gave Hongying the abortion drug!"
"It's you!" Old lady Wang pointed at Lin Mingzhu fiercely, "It's you. If you didn't hate Changgui and insisted on throwing Changgui into the Lin family army, how could Changgui die like this? How could I not die if Changgui didn't die!!" The more Old Lady Wang talked, the more she felt that it was all her fault, "Lin Mingzhu, you hurt Hongying once, what else do you want to do?!
Luan Cui, who was serving beside him, knew the truth. Lin Mingyue loved Prince Ning deeply, but Prince Ning did not love her, so she took out all her resentment on the maid Hongying, who was favored by Prince Ning. Not only did she marry Hongying to the servant, she also wanted to drive her out. However, the old lady Wang was Prince Ning's wet nurse, so she could not do that.
She asked Changgui to join the Lin family army, and asked Hongying to go with him if he was sent out, so that she would not have to see him and would not be bothered by him.
Lin Mingyue has indeed done a lot of evil...
But the two of them had the same face. Now that she had run away, and she couldn't produce any real evidence, could she really take on the murder lawsuit for Lin Mingyue?
"Ahhh! Mom, save me! I'm dying!" Hongying in the house raised her head and howled.
