The Cuijin Pavilion in the capital is the shop owned by the Ruan family. Whatever style of dress is popular at the moment, the embroiderer in the shop will first make a set according to the Ruan family's measurements from the inside to the outside. After Ruan's approval, she will then Customized and sold garments in bulk.
Just a few days ago, I just took some clothes from the shop.
Liu Zi asked cautiously: "Why does the big girl suddenly ask this?"
Li Qingyi considered it and said, "Someone tampered with Second Aunt's clothes, so Second Aunt feels a little uncomfortable."
Garcinia's expression changed, "No wonder Madam..."
Li Qingyi was afraid that Mrs. Ruan would be upset, so he interrupted her and said, "Go and check now to find out whose hands these pieces of clothing have passed through, and who they have been in contact with recently. It must be done quietly so that no one can notice it. If there is anything If it’s inconvenient, let Changlan go with you.”
Garcinia nodded quickly: "Yes, I understand!"
Not long after, the female doctor from the Qin Mansion also rushed over.
This girl's name is Xie Rao, and she is a disciple of the old miracle doctor next to Qin Zeng. For some reason, she is still unmarried at the age of twenty-six or seven, but she is very gentle and easy to get along with.
"Mrs. Li, Miss Li."
Mrs. Ruan hurried over to help her, "Thank you, girl, no need to be polite."
Li Qingyi knew that it was difficult for Ruan to speak, so he opened his mouth and explained a few words to Xie Rao in a low voice.
Xie Rao nodded, "Please also ask Mrs. Li to find a convenient place for treatment."
Ruan was a little uncomfortable, but this was not the time to be coy. She immediately found a room and invited Xie Rao to come over.
Li Qingyi waited outside, the anger in his heart still not subsided.
Wei Baozhu, you are really good, you can use any dirty means, just wait for me!
She cursed Wei Baozhu here, and Li Yuanzhi poked his little head out of the courtyard door.
"Sister..."
Li Qingyi looked back, "Brother Yuan?"
Li Yuanzhi waved to her furtively and asked her to come over.
Li Qingyi looked back at the door and saw that they had not come out yet, so he walked towards him, "What's the matter?"
"Sister, two days ago, someone came to propose marriage!"
"Propose marriage?"
Li Qingyi was startled, "What kind of marriage are you proposing?"
"Oh!" Li Yuanzhi looked troubled, "I'll propose marriage to you!"
Li Qingyi was baffled. In his two lifetimes, no one had seriously proposed marriage to her.
In her previous life, she arrived at the Wei Mansion as soon as she was a hairpin, and then she was hidden in the snow, so no one would come to propose marriage to her.
At that time, Qin Zeng actually said that he wanted to marry her, but he did not have the opportunity to seriously propose marriage at home.
Li Qingyi suddenly became very interested, "What then?"
Li Yuanzhi saw the excited look on her face and thought she was very happy. He immediately grinned and said, "It's over. My father didn't know that my sister wanted to get married. He said you were still young and refused."
Li Qingyi asked him, "Who wants to get married? Don't talk nonsense, kid."
"You don't want to get married, but you are so happy that someone comes to propose marriage?"
Li Qingyi smiled and said: "These are two different things, you don't understand!"
Changlan on the side sighed after hearing this, oh, the girl actually started to hate getting married.
What should adults do?
If a girl gets married, won't adults be able to follow her around all day long?
Ah bah bah bah!
How could she miss adults so much!
The adults just love Miss Li!
The door creaked, and several people looked back.
Ruan and Xie Rao walked out of the house one after the other.
Li Qingyi hurried over and asked, "Doctor Xie, how is my second aunt's health? Can it be easily treated?"
Xie Rao smiled warmly and said, "Don't worry, miss. Madam's condition has just begun to develop and is not serious. I have written down instructions for Madam to treat her internally and externally at the same time. Within half a month, her condition will definitely improve."
Li Qingyi's worried heart finally relaxed, "That's good, I'll let you worry about it.
"
"You're welcome, girl."
Xie Rao followed Garcinia to write prescriptions and prepare medicine. Li Qingyi asked Ruan a few more questions and then talked about Wei Baozhu.
"At this moment, she must still be dreaming about the day when she will be done! If I don't give her some clues, my surname will not be Li!"
Mrs. Ruan settled her worries and felt much better. After hearing what she said, she remembered that someone came to propose marriage, so she joked: "It's not appropriate for you to make this vow! When you get married in the future, don't you just want to Has the husband’s surname changed?”
When Li Qingyi heard this, he asked: "Second Aunt, who is this family that has such a keen eye that they discovered this pearl of mine so early in the morning?"
Ruan Shi smiled at what she said, "The light of your pearl almost blinded the eyes of the young men in the capital! It's just that when you first arrived in the capital and moved into the Wei Mansion, you were criticized and speculated everywhere. Continuously, no one dares to act rashly. Now that your second uncle has become the prince's young master, our Xuandehou Mansion has also restored its title, and we often go around with Mr. Qin. No, many people can't hold it back."
"Many families?"
"No, just in the past few days, there have been three or five waves of people coming to my door one after another."
"Really?!"
Mrs. Ruan looked at Li Qingyi's expression of watching the fun and was a little amused: "Why do you say it seems to be someone else's business?"
"Don't I think I'm still young and haven't thought about it yet?"
"Your second uncle and I don't think we are in a hurry. You have just had your haircut, and you have spent a lot of good time in these few years. When you get married, you have to take care of the housework, take care of your husband and raise your children, and be filial to your parents-in-law. You are very tired! You are a little late. What are you afraid of in a few years? You have to slowly choose someone you like."
"Then Second Aunt, can you find me a quilt like ours?"
Mrs. Ruan beamed at what she said: "I am lucky enough to be able to marry into the Li family. I don't know if there is anyone like our Li family in this capital."
Li Qingyi curled his lips, "I'm disgusted. Most of the people who come here to propose marriage see my second uncle as having a bright future, so they come to propose marriage while he's just emerging. If my second uncle becomes successful in the future, they won't be able to get there!" If the second aunt is willing, can you marry my second uncle to them, and I will stay at home with the second aunt!"
Ruan replied seriously: "Then when your second uncle comes back, I'll ask him!"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
Ruan said again: "But there is something that makes me feel a little worried."
Li Qingyi was startled: "What's the matter?"
"Don't worry, it's not what you think." Ruan pulled her into the house and said, "You should also know something. When your grandfather left the capital with the children of the Li family, it was because of the Zhenbei Prince's Palace, right?"
"Yeah. I know."
"A few days ago, the widowed Princess Zhenbei came to visit."
"Princess Zhenbei?"
When the King of Zhenbei rebelled, it was the Princess of Zhenbei who exterminated her relatives and reported her husband in exchange for the lives of other people in the Prince of Zhenbei's palace.
The emperor thought that King Zhenbei had made great contributions to the country, so he treated him leniently and allowed him to die alone. He did not strip him of his title, nor did he embarrass the palace of King Zhenbei.
However, the palace of the guilty minister was inevitably quiet. The widow of Zhenbei Princess stayed at home and did not go out easily.
Li Qingyi wondered, "Why is she here? Is she here to reminisce about old times?"
"That's true. However, Princess Zhenbei mentioned very tactfully that she wanted your second uncle to accept her son as his disciple in view of the old relationship between the two families."
"disciple?"
Although Li Yong is now the prince's young master, the prince is by no means a disciple, and the two are still monarchs and ministers.
The disciples Princess Zhenbei mentioned were probably the kind who wanted to become a disciple seriously.
"Why would she have such an idea? Isn't it just to get along with the prince?"
Ruan shook her head: "How could I know this? I don't know anything about the matters in the court."
"Then what did my second uncle say?"...
"Your second uncle hasn't agreed yet, and presumably he doesn't know Princess Zhenbei's intentions. After all, what that person did back then
…I can’t say it’s wrong, but it still makes my scalp feel numb…”
Li Qingyi thought for a while and asked: "When my grandfather spoke for the King of Zhenbei, did he know something inside, or was he just asking for mercy?"
Ruan shook his head: "I don't know. I asked your second uncle, and your second uncle said he didn't know about this matter. Your grandfather never mentioned it to anyone."
Li Qingyi carefully recalled Princess Zhenbei and her son, but he had no impression.
In her previous life, until she and Qin Zeng had a wedding ceremony, the mother and son did not appear. Why did they appear now?
Ruan sighed: "If you ask me, this step-sister is not as good as the original wife. If it were me, I wouldn't be so cruel..."
Anyway, if her man rebelled, she might not be able to make up his mind to report him.
If it was for the sake of her son and the lives of the entire clan, she would lock Li Yong up. If it didn't work, she would cripple him to stop him from thinking about it.
"Stepwife? Princess Zhenbei is the stepmother?"
Ruan nodded, "The first wife of King Zhenbei died long ago. She seemed to be seriously ill? I don't know the details. Anyway, she was filling in a house."
The two talked for a while, and Li Qingyi planned to return to the Wei Mansion. Before leaving, he told Mrs. Ruan, "It's better to hide the matter of Second Aunt's treatment. I have my own countermeasures for Wei Baozhu."
Ruan said: "Then what should your second uncle do... I'm afraid your second uncle will know about this disease..."
Li Qingyi said helplessly: "Is it possible that the second uncle will still dislike you? If the second aunt really cares, it's not too late to cure the disease first."
Ruan nodded, "Well, then be careful on the road."
Li Qingyi got on the carriage, thinking that Wei Baozhu must be waiting to see her reaction at the house at this time, so of course she couldn't show anything strange.
She adjusted her mentality along the way, and when the carriage stopped in front of the Wei Mansion, she had regained her composure.
But when he returned to Zhuoxiangyuan, Heng Wu handed over a post, "It's from Miss Mu Jiu."
Li Qingyi's heart moved when he heard this. The last time Mu Yao wanted to tell her something secret, he was interrupted.
I am afraid that if I ask her to meet this time, I will continue the topic from last time.
After carefully reading the content of the post, she carefully put it away and planned to go to the appointment on time tomorrow.
Here in Qinghua Pavilion.
As expected, Wei Baozhu was waiting for news. When Yu'er said that Li Qingyi didn't have any strange expression when he came in, his face suddenly relaxed.
"It seems that Ruan really didn't mention it to her."
Yu'er said: "Miss Li, a young lady who has not yet left the court, may not understand these things. Naturally, Mrs. Ruan will not tell her."
Wei Baozhu sneered, "Now it depends on what Ruan will choose next, whether to cure the disease or hide it?"
