Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband
Chapter 63: Smoky Shirt
In fact, even if Lu Jinfeng failed to complete his mission, Gu Qinlan would continue to use him.
This Taibai Tower is just an opportunity for Lu Jinfeng to improve himself.
Because of today's unexpected events, Gu Qinlan also lost interest and decided to return to the palace.
As soon as she returned to Prince Duan's Mansion, Gu Qinlan met Zheng Fenghui who looked dazed.
Zheng Fenghui was like a walking corpse at this moment, with a confused look in his eyes.
The coroner has just confirmed that the little conch did not die from serious injuries, but from poisoning!
This means that his previous guess has been confirmed.
The reason why Xiao Hailuo attempted to kill Gu Qinlan was because someone was behind the scenes instructing her. The other party was worried that Xiao Hailuo would reveal the truth, so he chose to kill her to silence her.
And the most important thing is... the little conch had already betrayed him!
Zheng Fenghui was confused and didn't notice Gu Qinlan. He almost fell down. Fortunately, Gu Qinlan reached out to support him in time. She frowned and asked with concern:
"Feng Hui, what's wrong with you? Where do you feel uncomfortable? Why are you so absent-minded?"
Zheng Fenghui heard Gu Qinlan's familiar voice, and he slowly raised his somewhat wooden face, his eyes wanderingly falling on Gu Qinlan.
When Zheng Fenghui noticed the concern in Gu Qinlan's eyes, he felt a surge of pain in his heart. After all, he was only an eight-year-old child. Although his mind was more mature than his peers, how could he easily let go of the betrayal of someone he trusted?
Zheng Fenghui tried hard to suppress his inner grievances, not wanting Gu Qinlan to see his vulnerability, so he took a small step back, leaned forward slightly, and said politely:
"Feng Hui is safe and sound. I almost offended my mother just now. Please forgive me."
Gu Qinlan looked Zheng Fenghui up and down, and finally did not continue to ask, but just said softly:
"It's OK. The family master will be here soon. You don't need to go to the clan school anymore. You can directly receive education in the mansion with Feng Yun and others."
Zheng Fenghui frowned slightly when he heard this, and said with a hint of doubt: "However, the teacher of the clan school is a leading figure in the current academic world. Even our family had to go through a lot of trouble to invite him..."
Gu Qinlan raised her eyebrows, with a sly smile in her eyes:
"It doesn't matter. Everything depends on Feng Hui's own choice. Maybe then you will be pleasantly surprised to find the gentleman I invited."
Zheng Fenghui listened to Gu Qinlan's words, and he couldn't help but feel a little skeptical, as if Gu Qinlan was exaggerating. He thought, there are only a few great scholars in the contemporary world, and who can compare with Mr. Yan's knowledge?
However, Zheng Fenghui did not show any doubt on his face. He just nodded slightly and said goodbye politely.
Gu Qinlan watched Zheng Fenghui's back, a glimmer of inquiry flashed in her eyes, and she turned to the maid beside her and instructed:
"Arrange it as soon as possible. Make sure that his worries are completely resolved before the teacher arrives so that he can concentrate on his studies."
"As ordered."
……
Wenqin's mood was like a turbulent ocean, with no peace. In her dream last night, the phantom of the little conch was lingering, making her toss and turn all night.
At this moment, she lay weakly in the house, not daring to go out, for fear that someone would see her strange behavior. At this moment, a maid ran in hurriedly, shouting in panic:
"Sister Wenqin, Sister Wenqin, something terrible has happened."
"What happened? Why are you so flustered? The young lady is not at home, and you are so lawless?" Wen Qin was in a terrible mood. She vented her anger at the flustered maid, grabbed the pillow next to her and threw it at her.
After being hit, the maid didn't dare to complain. After all, Wenqin was Xiao Wenyin's top maid, and her status was much higher than those maids. She endured the blow, and then said tremblingly: "Sister Wenqin, please calm down. We really have no other choice, so we come to you for help..."
After Wenqin vented her anger, she calmed down a little. She frowned and asked:
"What on earth happened?"
The maid finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Wenqin's mood had eased. She answered cautiously:
"The maid who was doing the laundry was careless and her hands were a little rough. She actually snagged a thread on Miss Xiao's most treasured bright red orchid smoke silk shirt."
"I heard that the embroidery on the dress was done by Sister Wenqin herself, so we thought of asking you to help and see if there is any way to repair it..."
When Wenqin heard this, she immediately stood up angrily, walked up to the maid, poked her head with her index finger, and reprimanded her sternly:
"How did you do this? That material is rare in Beijing, and the young lady got one with great difficulty. You broke it. How can you compensate me?"
"Sister Wenqin, the material is still intact, but the embroidery pattern is unfortunately snagged, resulting in this..."
The servant girl explained hurriedly, tears welling up in her eyes, as if tears would fall at any moment, and she looked like she was about to burst into tears and plead.
Wenqin sighed when she saw this, and said with unquestionable firmness in her tone:
"Forget it, take me to check it out."
She knew in her heart that she could not stay out of it. After all, she was Xiao Wenyin's personal maid. If the clothes were really damaged and Xiao Wenyin got angry, she would not be spared either.
Soon, Wenqin and the maid brought the Yanluo shirt. She carefully examined it and found that it was indeed possible to repair it, so she scolded the maid and returned carefully with the shirt.
Wenqin walked to the corridor with the Yanluo shirt in her hand and met Zheng Fenghui.
Zheng Fenghui was naturally familiar with Wenqin and immediately asked:
"Wenqin? Where are you going?"
Wenqin hurriedly bowed to Zheng Fenghui and replied:
"My Lord, the young lady's clothes were unfortunately damaged by the servants. I am planning to go back and carefully repair them."
Zheng Fenghui always showed great concern for Xiao Wenyin's affairs and immediately said:
"If clothes are damaged, just replace them with new ones. Why bother to mend them?"
Wenqin explained patiently:
"It's just that the embroidery is a little bit snagged, it's not a big deal. Miss has a special liking for this dress and it's hard to give it up."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Fenghui looked suspiciously at the clothes in Wenqin's hand, appearing to be half-believing and half-doubting.
Upon seeing this, Wenqin immediately took out the damaged embroidery pattern, handed it to Zheng Fenghui for inspection, and explained softly:
"Please see, it is indeed fine. This embroidery pattern was made by my servants. It only needs to be re-embroidered and it will be restored to its original state."
Zheng Fenghui didn't take it seriously at first. He just glanced at the hook and saw that it was indeed not big, so he nodded.
However, suddenly, Zheng Fenghui seemed to remember something, his eyes suddenly changed, and he looked at the embroidery pattern again. He was startled, and then he became furious and shouted:
"Miss Xiao must wear new clothes. How can I tolerate repaired clothes? Bring this dress here, and I will order someone to buy a new one immediately."
"what?"
"Why panic? Just give it to me!"
Zheng Fenghui snatched the Yanluo shirt from Wenqin's hand without saying anything, handed it to the accompanying servant, and left.
Although Wenqin was surprised, she did not think too much about it. She just looked at Zheng Fenghui's departing back silently, with an inexplicable wave in her heart.
