Cousin Chitose Chitose

After a while, Marquis Changning shook his head as if accepting his fate: "That's all."

Isn't what he's thinking of all the time, is to bring the Marquis of Changning to a higher level?That being the case, the heir he has single-handedly cultivated is better than him, and he should be happy to be able to force him to such an extent.

Seeing this, Wei Yichen understood that the Marquis of Changning had approved of his actions: "Thank you, father, for making this happen."

He looked confident on his face, but he was secretly relieved.Although he has some power in his hands, it is not as good as Marquis Changning who has been in business for many years. If Marquis Changning insists on opposing him, things will be very troublesome.

"If you really decide to put our family on the emperor's chariot, in the future, you have to be more wary of your mother. After all, she is a woman, and she is still an emotional woman. If she knows that you are going to help the emperor deal with the queen mother and The Liu family, what will happen if you don't keep it clean?" A trace of worry flashed across Chang Ninghou's eyebrows: "Forget it, let her continue to 'recover'."

When mentioning Mrs. Changninghou, the pillow person, Changninghou didn't have too much emotion.This made Wei Yichen more and more aware that both the current Mrs. Changning Hou and his mother were just tools for marriage.

Wei Yichen said: "Father, don't worry, I will take precautions against Madam. However, please prepare well first, we may not be able to detain Madam for a long time. This time, my son severely disrespected the Empress Dowager in the court. I'm afraid the Empress Dowager will wait for an opportunity to get back to the place later."

Wei Yichen's words soon came true.

On the second day, Empress Dowager Liu personally issued an order to call Mrs. Changning Hou into the palace.

Marquis Changning naturally refused. He said to the palace people who came to announce the decree: "It's not that I want to disobey the meaning of the empress dowager. It's just that my wife is still sick and can't get out of bed right now. Madam, should you be more harsh?"

As he said that, Marquis Changning wanted to stuff a handful of golden scorpions into the hands of the eunuch in charge, but the eunuch pushed it away and looked at Marquis Changning with a half-smile: "Today, the miscellaneous family came to announce the decree to your wife. If you go back to the palace like this without seeing anyone, the Empress Dowager will blame you. Please let the honored lady come out and see you."

If it was in the past, this eunuch might have given Marquis Changning some face, but now that the Empress Dowager has clearly shown her dislike for the Marquis of Changning, he will naturally not violate the Empress Dowager's taboo.

Jiang Yuanwan and Wei Jinxuan were in charge of the house, and they were naturally present when the palace announced the decree.At this moment, they all had a big stone hanging in their hearts.

They all know how Madam Changning's "illness" came about.If Mrs. Changninghou doesn't come out today, the people sent by the Queen Mother will definitely not follow her, but if she comes out, the people of the Queen Mother will find that Mrs. Changninghou is not sick at all...

Jiang Yuanwan quietly raised her head and glanced at Marquis Changning, only to see that he was calm and composed, and there was no trace of panic on his body: "Madam is not in good health and cannot be blown by the wind. If your father-in-law doesn't mind, please come in with me to have a look."

"can."

……

In Madam Changning Hou's room, there was a strong smell of medicine, and the sound of coughing could be heard from behind the curtain.

The eunuch was walking in front, seeing this situation, he couldn't help covering his nose with his hand, his sense of smell was naturally more sensitive than ordinary people, it was really a pain in such an environment.

The maid at the side observed the words and expressions, and hurried forward and said: "The empress dowager invites Mrs. Changning Hou to enter the palace for a briefing, and please come out to see her."

The eunuch glanced at the maid appreciatively.After entering Mrs. Changninghou's room, the eunuch believed six or seven percent of Mrs. Changninghou's illness.The earlier he met Mrs. Changning Hou, the sooner he could leave this uncomfortable place.

After a while, the window curtain was lifted by the maid beside Mrs. Changninghou, revealing a pale face. If it wasn't Mrs. Changninghou, who was it?At this time, Mrs. Changning Hou looked very weak, her lips were bloodless, and she fell into a coma.

The servant girl who was in charge of serving her lowered her head and said, "Madam just drank the medicine and fell asleep. Do you need a servant to wake Madam up?"

The eunuch glanced at the bed again, and after confirming that the person lying on the bed was Madam Changninghou, he said, "No need, since Madam Changninghou is still ill, let her recuperate well, and the miscellaneous family will go back to the palace to report to the Queen Mother." The empress has returned." He didn't want to stay longer in this place full of medicine.

Jiang Yuanwan, Wei Jinxuan and the others breathed a sigh of relief as the group left in a mighty manner.

"The empress dowager's people came too suddenly, it must have annoyed us because of the previous flower viewing party." Wei Jinxuan patted her chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

Jiang Yuanwan said, "It's too early to relax now. If my predictions are correct, it won't be long before the queen mother sends a second wave of people."

Facing Wei Jinxuan's suspicious eyes, she explained: "My aunt is ill. As the aunt's aunt, shouldn't the queen mother send some imperial doctors to see her?"

Chang Ninghou passed the first level in a fool, but the second level was not so easy!

Sure enough, the eunuch who announced the decree went back to return to his order within half a day, and several imperial doctors were sent from the palace, saying that they were ordered by Empress Dowager Liu to treat Madam Changning Hou.

Jiang Yuanwan listened to the tone of those imperial physicians, Empress Dowager Liu seemed to be suspecting that Marquis Changning deliberately made Mrs. Marquis Changning sick.Those imperial physicians were also very defensive towards Marquis Changning.There are all the necessary etiquette, but once Chang Ning Hou tries to get close to Mrs. Chang Ning Hou's bed, they will stop him.

In this regard, Marquis Changning could only smile wryly.

Following the actions of the imperial physicians, Jiang Yuanwan and Wei Jinxuan's hearts were raised in their throats again.

If something is discovered by the imperial physicians, I don't know what the Empress Dowager Liu will do in a fit of anger...

Jiang Yuanwan once again looked at Mrs. Changning Hou's bed with worried eyes.I don't know how Marquis Changning plans to deal with this crisis.

Someone walked up to her, shook her hand lightly, and whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid."

Although he let go soon, Jiang Yuanwan was still relieved by his actions.

Yes, when the man approached her, she realized that the man was Wei Yichen.Before she knew it, she was already so familiar with Wei Yichen's breath.

Since Wei Yichen told her not to be afraid, then she is ready to come to the Marquis of Changning, right?

After a while, the imperial physicians who treated Mrs. Changninghou came out, all of them with serious expressions on their faces.

Marquis Changning went up to meet him and asked, "I don't know the results of the examinations by the imperial physicians?"

"Your Madam is suffering from tuberculosis." One of the imperial physicians said.

It is very difficult to cure this kind of disease, moreover, this disease will be worse than others, no wonder Changninghou only let Changninghou's wife rest, and she is not allowed to come out and walk around.However, Madam Changning Hou's body is so weak, she can't get out at all.

The imperial doctor couldn't help shaking his head when he thought of the task Empress Dowager Liu had entrusted to him.

Regarding Madam Changninghou's condition, Changninghou did not lie to the Queen Mother.In the future, Mrs. Changning Hou may only be able to linger on the sick bed.

The imperial physicians came and left quickly.

Until they left, Jiang Yuanwan and Wei Jinxuan still couldn't recover.

That's how things work out?

The relieved expression on Marquis Changning's face told them that the matter was indeed resolved.But at this time, both Jiang Yuanwan and Wei Jinxuan were shuddering and not happy at all.

Although they haven't met Madam Changning Hou for a long time, they have been taking care of the house recently, so they naturally know how noisy Madam Changning Hou is.And not long ago, Liu Xihui came to talk to Mrs. Changninghou. How could Mrs. Changninghou suddenly become so weak?

Jiang Yuanwan looked Changning Hou again without any trace, and her heart sank slowly.

Perhaps, her so-called "uncle" is more ruthless than she imagined.Although she didn't like Mrs. Changninghou, after all, Mrs. Changninghou was a husband and wife who had shared the bed with him for more than ten years. How could Changninghou be so cruel.Is it true that no matter who it is, as long as it is of no value to Chang Ning Hou, it will be mercilessly abandoned by Chang Ning Hou?

That night, Jiang Yuanwan didn't sleep well.Mrs. Changninghou's paper-thin face and Changninghou's nonchalant face were always overlapping in her mind.She looked at it, and suddenly found that the lifeless person lying on the sickbed had changed from Mrs. Changninghou to herself...

Early the next morning, Hongyu brought a bowl of porridge: "Miss, my son heard that you didn't sleep well last night, so I specially ordered someone to prepare a bowl of porridge with white fungus and lotus seeds, saying that lotus seeds have the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind. The servant stares at you as you finish the porridge."

When Jiang Yuanwan heard this, she frowned in her heart, but she said: "I really don't know if you are his maid or mine, but now you listen to him and control me."

Hong Xing smiled and said: "The servant girl is Miss's maidservant, so naturally she listens to Miss. If Miss doesn't want to drink this porridge, the servant girl will go and throw it away." As she spoke, she pretended to grab the bowl from Hongyu's hand.

Hongyu was in a hurry, and quickly dodged: "I heard that this porridge was boiled by the prince himself staring at people. If the young lady collapsed like this, wouldn't people be cold? The slave feels that the prince cares about the young lady very much. What the prince said If it is beneficial to the young lady, the young lady should listen to it."

"Okay, stop teasing you, bring it to me to drink." Jiang Yuanwan stretched out her hand towards Hongyu.

Although she couldn't respond to Wei Yichen's wishes, Wei Yichen's actions made it hard for her not to be moved.

When Jiang Yuanwan took the porridge bowl, she felt a little strange. There was actually a small note hidden under the porridge bowl.

Seeing that Jiang Yuanwan had discovered it, Hongyu covered her mouth and giggled.

Jiang Yuanwan glared at her, put down the porridge bowl, picked up the note and read it carefully.The handwriting on that note was strong and sharp, and it was indeed Wei Yichen's handwriting.I saw it said: "Don't worry, I will protect you."

A simple line of small characters jumped into Jiang Yuanwan's eyes, and at the same time, broke into her heart.

Jiang Yuanwan only felt that the head in her mouth was poured into sugar water by someone, and it was so sweet to her heart.

If Wei Yichen had said this to her from the beginning, she would not have believed it.But all along, Wei Yichen has proved with practical actions that he is a person who walks the talk.Whenever Jiang Yuanwan was in trouble, he would appear by Jiang Yuanwan's side at the first time to help her overcome difficulties.Wei Yichen seemed to always be so reliable.

However, what Wei Yichen wanted to protect was Jiang Yuanwan, a cousin of the Hou Mansion who had no background.If one day Wei Yichen knew her true identity, he didn't know whether he would continue to protect her or draw his sword against her.

Jiang Yuanwan's eyes darkened when she thought of the Changninghou couple who had turned against each other.
