Hong Peiju suddenly fell ill in Fanghua Residence, which alarmed everyone in the Hou family. Yang came over in a hurry and wanted to move Hong Peiju to her main room, or to Hong Peiju's study.
However, Hong Peiju was very "sick" this time, and she suffered from headaches even if she moved even slightly. She had no choice but to leave Hong Peiju in Fanghua Residence and Aunt Zhuo was responsible for taking care of her.
Baojiang stayed in Danguiyuan with Jijun sisters as a matter of course. He told Ms. Yang that he was worried that the wedding preparations would be complicated and people coming and going would disturb Hongpeiju's rest. Yang was worried about Hong Peiju's health, so naturally she would not delve too deeply into it.
Ji Min asked a little puzzled,
"Sister Baochang, you have always been cautious and respectful in front of the Marquis. Why is there such a fierce conflict between you this time?"
Bao Chang sighed and said,
"A long time ago, I found out that he was lying to me, and the longer it went, the more worried I was about my parents. I originally secretly found someone to go to my hometown to look for my parents, but before the people I sent came back, he They forced me to marry Old Man Jiao. I couldn't bear it for a moment. That's why I'm like this today."
Ji Min said a little puzzled again,
"But how did sister know that Hong Peiju lied to you?"
Bao Chang looked sad.
"That was one day, I suddenly discovered that the paper my father sent me letters was a little different from the previous paper. The paper in my hometown was delicate and soft, and my father knew that I liked spices. Every time the paper was sent, it would have a faint floral fragrance. . This floral fragrance is an unknown flower from my hometown. It is not very beautiful and the fragrance is not strong. You can only faintly smell it when you put the paper close to your mouth and nose. When I came to the capital, my mother said, There was no such little flower in the capital, so she would wrap the letter paper with petals for a few days before writing. Every time I got a letter from my parents and smelled the fragrance of the flowers, I felt very peaceful and felt like my parents were there. It’s the same around me.”
Speaking of his parents, Bao Chang's eyes flashed with tenderness, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, thinking he was recalling the time when the family was harmonious and harmonious under Cheng Huan's knees.
Ji Jun couldn't help but sigh.
Bao Chang continued,
"But then one time I found that there was no such floral fragrance on the paper. At first I thought it was my parents who used other papers to make up for it. But the next few letters still didn't have it. I became suspicious, so one time I wrote it in the letter I deliberately mentioned that I missed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by my mother, and asked my mother to use a round mooncake mold to make sweet-scented osmanthus cake for me. As a result, soon after, along with the letter from my parents, I also brought a letter with "Fu" printed on it. "Osmanthus cake shaped like a moon cake, I knew it must be Hong Peiju pretending to be my parents and replying to me!"
Ji Min sighed softly. Thinking back to my previous life, I had also been deceived by Hong Peiju's letters pretending to be her parents, but at that time, I had never been suspicious. It wasn't until I entered the palace in a daze and was enlightened by Concubine Lu that I gradually understood...
The human heart is so sinister that it is simply indescribable.
Bao Chang smiled bitterly.
"I have never liked to eat osmanthus cakes since I was a child, so my mother would never make osmanthus cakes for me. And my grandmother passed away on the Mid-Autumn Festival, so it is even more impossible for my mother to make osmanthus cakes. It looked like a mooncake. However, I was weak and could only keep an eye on it. From then on, I began to quietly pay attention to Hong Peiju’s whereabouts, his actions, the people who interacted with him, etc. Sure enough, I discovered the clue!"
When Ji Jun heard this, he sighed in his heart. Sure enough, it is not easy for a woman to survive safely in a deep house.
No wonder Lin Daiyu was cautious every day when she was in Jia Mansion, walking on thin ice.
When I read the original work at that time, I thought that Lin Daiyu was a bit sensitive, and that she might be doing nothing, which made her sad for spring and autumn.
Now it seems that it is not an exaggeration to say that tigers and wolves are everywhere.
Bao Chang did not mention the letter paper related to the "Blood Lan Pearl" again.
Ji Jun also knew that she was using this as her final trump card.
Jijun promised to protect the river and immediately sent people to Baochang's hometown to find Baochang's parents.
Ji Jun believed that only when Bao Chang's parents stood in front of her safe and sound, Bao Chang would hand over the letter containing the "Blood Lanzhu". Because it is useless for her to keep it and will only bring risks to herself.
Now in Danguiyuan, at least under her own protection, she can be temporarily safe.
It's just that Baochao said that she was poisoned by Hong Peiju, and Jijun had a headache, because after being given the "Ronggu Powder" by Meilin, the poisonous insects on Jijun's body were not so sensitive. The poison that Baochao was poisoned by The Gu on Yun's body showed no reaction at all.
For this reason, Ji Jun did not dare to use his own blood to detoxify Bao Chang easily.
Since she traveled through time, she has discovered that there are many mysterious and unknown things in this world, which cannot be solved with a passion.
Moreover, if detoxification was so simple, Hong Peiju would definitely not let Bao Chang stay in Danguiyuan without attacking Bao Chang.
So Ji Jun guessed that based on Hong Peiju's character and calculation, he must have known that his own blood could not detoxify Bao Chang's poison, so he left Bao Chang alone.
Over there, Mei Lin went to visit Hong Peiju. She saw Hong Peiju lying on the bed with an angry look on her face and a sad look on her face. She smiled softly and said,
"Dad, are you worried about Sister Baochang marrying into Jiao Mansion?"
Hong Peiju snorted, then frowned and gasped.
Hong Peiju cannot get angry easily now, cannot get angry, or even exercise strenuously. If the movement range is slightly larger, the head will explode.
Meilin saw this and said hurriedly,
"Dad, don't worry. In fact, marrying Sister Baochang to the Jiao Mansion is indeed a bit unfair to Sister Baochang. How can that uncle of Concubine Jiao Xian, a bad old man, be worthy of the eldest lady of my Marquis Mansion?"
Hong Peiju tried her best to look at Meilin with her eyes wide open, feeling a little confused and angry.
Mei Lin smiled and said Shi Shiran,
"Dad, have you forgotten? Daddy doesn't think about people like Concubine Jiao Xian, who are cold-natured, selfish and cold-hearted. How could she not like her because her father married the eldest daughter of the Hou family to her? Her incompetent and wretched uncle couldn't do anything to help her, so she felt grateful to her father? Moreover, she dared to coerce her father to marry the eldest daughter of the Hou family to her incompetent uncle, and she didn't take her father seriously. , why should Daddy touch Concubine Jiao Xian’s cold ass with his hot face?”
Hong Peiju was dissatisfied,
"Dad knows what you are thinking. You are about to enter the prince's palace. No matter which prince you are, the two of them will eventually fight against Concubine Jiao Xian's two princes. But sacrificing a treasure is also to pave the way for you. In the future, at least In the palace, you can be regarded as the elder of the Concubine Xian, she will not embarrass you for the time being, and her face is acceptable, so why is dad wrong?"
Meilin shook her head gently and slowly put away her smile.
"Dad has planned everything carefully, thank you to my daughter. However, with Sister Baochang like this now, I'm afraid that dad can't take advantage of his wish, and it will also cause trouble for his daughter. Why don't dad stop embarrassing Sister Baochang. Our Marquis Mansion There are plenty of girls, so why do we have to have a life-and-death fight with Baochang?"
Hong Peiju's eyes widened, she endured the pain and said anxiously,
"Should you give Yuyan away? I know you are very dissatisfied with Yuyan, but you have to know that Yuyan will be of much greater use in the future! Even if you cannot win the hearts of the third or fourth prince in the future, use Yuyan It’s also good to go and help you with your pet! You can’t tolerate her so much, do you have to abuse her like this?”
Meilin sat down calmly, took a sip of tea gracefully, and smiled generously,
"Dad looked down on Mei Lin. Mei Lin is not a petty person. Although Mei Lin was born and raised by her aunt, she has been very respectful to my wife since she was a child. She learned a lot about how to behave with others from her and Sister Liuli. The truth. I know that even if I cannot enter a high school in the future, I still need to be generous and have a long-term vision."
Seeing this, Hong Peiju felt a little relieved. He knew that Meilin was ruthless and was worried that Meilin would harm Yuyan. After all, Yuyan is an important chess piece in his hands, and he doesn't want to waste it like this.
Mei Lin also guessed what he was thinking, and said calmly,
"Dad, in my palace, there are legitimate daughters, concubine daughters, and adopted daughters. Can you adopt another adopted daughter? For example, wouldn't it be the same if Shen Ying could be adopted as an adopted daughter and sent to the Jiao family?"
Just as Hong Peiju was about to scold her, her head started to hurt violently again. For a moment, she could only cover her head and close her eyes tightly, speechless. He could only breathe slowly and try to get over this wave of pain as soon as possible.
Meilin continued,
"Dad, I know you are thinking that Shen Ying is already in ruins, so how can she enter the Jiao family? Once she finds out that she is not a virgin, she will definitely anger Concubine Xian. But dad, do you think , Is that bad old uncle of the Concubine Xian still capable of being humane?"
Meilin's understatement made Hong Peiju feel that there was suddenly a candlelight in the dark room, and her headache suddenly seemed to be relieved a lot!
Yes, if Concubine Jiao Xian's uncle cannot be humane, then what kind of person does it matter?
So what if it's a man?
As for Shen Ying's identity, who can say she is "Bao Chang"?
Mei Lin saw Hong Peiju's eyes burning brightly and knew that he was attracted, so she said no more.
Hong Peiju is like this. You can't help but say that there are some things that his perspective is different from your own and will be limiting. But you can't say too much. If you say too much, he will become suspicious.
Mei Lin felt happy. In the palace, Concubine Jiao Xian humiliated her wantonly, and she responded in this way!
There is a walking curse that drags down Concubine Jiao Xian's fortune!
In the future, even if your prince and husband-in-law cannot inherit the throne, the wealthy prince will not be able to escape!
In order to show the "deep brotherhood", the future Holy Emperor will definitely take more care of him for the sake of face and the appearance of "brothers and brothers" as long as his husband does not rebel!
However, the premise is that the Holy Emperor cannot have too many brothers in the future. If the Holy Emperor has too many brothers, the value of his own prince will be greatly reduced!
Even, being forgotten, being left out, being exiled...
