The general's wife is sick

Torn fabrics were scattered on the ground, and many unsightly objects were deformed by the stone's head. Nanny Lin moved her foot and happened to kick a bell. The surface of the bell was slightly flat, and it was half smashed by the stone. still make noise.

Nanny Lin's heart was pounding, this was a gift from the Empress Dowager, brought out by Yan Bao from the palace.

Squatting down and picking up all the things without dropping them, Sister Lin held the box in her arms and hurried out of the alley.

The house had already turned on the lights, the night was dark and the air was dry and cold, but Xiong Zhengli was sweating all over his body, he carried Yan Bao into the west courtyard all the way, and Xiaoxin went to invite the doctor.

Yan Bao lay pale on the bed, while Xiong Zhengli and Princess Guangyang stood by the bed.

"Mrs. Bao's complexion is pale, her visceral qi is weak, her pulse condition is slippery and feeble, and it slows down and stops at regular intervals. It is the pulse of excessive fright and blood attacking the heart. The old man left some calming medicine for Mrs. Bao to calm her mind. Being entangled in poison, he looks strong and healthy now, but he is really weak inside, try not to let him be stimulated again, otherwise he may not live a long life."

"Thank you doctor, the Fuchu will definitely pay attention in the future."

The doctor bowed, and he never interfered with the housework of rich and powerful families. He raised a few points in everything.

After the diagnosis and treatment, the decoction was kept, and Xiaoxin sent the doctor out.

Princess Guangyang was sitting by the bed, and Xiong Zhengli was standing behind her. The candles on the table were flickering. Princess Guangyang looked at Yan Bao's expression with a solemn expression, "Ah Li, why is Bao'er frightened so much that he is so angry and bloody?"

Xiong Zhengli opened his mouth, seeing that Yan Bao was still frowning in a coma, he still told exactly what he saw when he picked up Yan Bao.

"When the child saw him, he was alone in a dark alley, with rags all over the floor, and a few bed things that had been smashed by stones were scattered outside the box."

"Bed things?"

Princess Guangyang glanced, and all the things collected by Nanny Lin were stacked in an open box. The box was gorgeous in appearance, carved with hollow patterns, and poured gold around it. This kind of box, palace Not uncommon.

She knew right away that Yan Bao must have met Sister Jiaoyin.

"It's hard for him. Dispose of all these things and don't let others know."

She has known the methods of the queen mother since she was a child. Since the death of the son-in-law and Emperor Xuande came to power, she was worried that the emperor's wings would become stiff, and she would lose power, so she kept putting nails in everyone's house. The court and even the civil and military officials are completely controlled by her.

Xiong Zhengli nodded, but if Princess Guangyang didn't mention it, he would definitely not keep these things with Yan Bao, "He is timid."

"Now the Queen Mother already knows that you don't like him, so let's just let some things go."

But Xiong Zhengli said, "If the Empress Dowager wants to give up, she won't let Jiaoyin teach him, I'm afraid this matter is still unfinished."

"If not... send Bao'er out of the house?"

Princess Guangyang has a change of heart, Yan Bao is timid, and the queen mother is pressing her, so she can save him by sending him out of the house.

"Leave this to the child."

Princess Guangyang nodded, "Don't scare him anymore, he has the same fate as you. Wang Xinru didn't kill him, it was his fate. He was pushed into the mansion by the Queen Mother as a nail. He took it for his own use, so let’s send it out of the house for now.”

Holding Yan Bao's hand covered under the quilt, Princess Guangyang exerted a little force.

In the east courtyard, Hong Yan was very disturbed when he heard that Xiong Zhengli sent Yan Bao back to his residence and carried Yan Bao back to the west courtyard without using his hands. "Liu Xu, are everything ready?"

Liu Xu put on the cloak for Hong Yan, picked up the box, "Ma'am, it's ready."

"Follow me to the west courtyard."

Xiaoxin was at the door, and whispered into the room, "Master, Mrs. Hong is walking this way with Liuxu."

Xiong Zhengli immediately let go of Yan Bao's hand and carefully stuffed it back into the quilt, got up and sat down at the table.

"Mrs. Hong!" Xiaoxin's voice outside the door saluted.

"Hearing that Baodi is ill, I specially found a ginseng tree from the warehouse, hoping that he will get well soon."

Pushing the door open, Hong Yan was pleasantly surprised, "My husband is also here."

Xiong Zhengli said, "Didn't you see Xiaoxin at the door?"

The complexion changed suddenly, and the corners of Hong Yan's upturned mouth suddenly became stiff, "What is your husband's intention?"

"What are you here for?"

Hong Yan withdrew her smile in embarrassment, and ordered Liu Xu to put the ginseng on the table, "I heard that Baodi was ill, so I specially opened a private warehouse. This is a hundred-year-old ginseng, which has the effect of strengthening the foundation and strengthening the original. I hope that Baodi can Get better."

"He's fine, you can go back."

Xiong Zhengli's voice was calm, and Hong Yan's heart ached, "Husband is trying to drive me away?"

"Yan Bao is not in good health. I will send him out to recuperate. If you want to visit him, you can take advantage of it now."

"Why?" Hong Yan was surprised.

You must know that there are all famous people in the capital. If they are sent out of the mansion by the husband's family because of their poor health, it is almost telling everyone in disguise that this person is not welcome in the husband's family. Ren and Shuang'er are serious hits.

"There are too many things in the mansion, which is not conducive to recuperation."

"I hope my husband will think more about it!" Hong Yan bowed deeply to Xiong Zhengli.

"What are you doing? I sent him out of the mansion. You are the only young lady in the mansion. How can you plead for him?"

Xiong Zhengli never beat around the bush when he spoke, but went straight to the point. Hong Yan's face turned pale when he said it.

"What my husband said is that we are equal wives, but Hong Yan has been studying for many years, always remembering the three cardinal principles and five constant principles, women should obey the precepts, dare not be jealous, and feel resentful. But even if my husband doesn't like Baodi, don't let him be abused by everyone. People ridicule. When he was in the boudoir, he was naturally timid and kind, husband... don't treat him like this."

"It's really interesting." Xiong Zhengli got up and approached Hong Yan step by step, "If I want to send him out of the house, would you like to go with him?"

Hong Yan's face turned from white to blue, but her gaze was firm, "If my husband makes such a decision, Hong Yan will definitely accompany Baodi out of the house!"

Then he saluted deeply.

Xiong Zhengli snorted coldly, "I do things, I don't need you to tell me what to do, just stay in your courtyard."

"Husband!"

"If you say more, I will send you out of the mansion with him!"

Because Yan Bao made Xiong Zhengli angry, Liu Xu felt very wronged for Hong Yan on the way back with Hong Yan, so she held back her words.

Going back to the room, closing the door, the charcoal fire inside the room was warm, Liu Xu took off the cloak for Hong Yan, tidied it up and hung it on the screen, finally couldn't help but said, "Ma'am, why did you speak for Mrs. Bao, he was sent out of the mansion Wouldn’t it be better to go. Liu Shuangshao from the Minister’s Mansion of the Ministry of Rites went to Fuzhou with the Northwest Army, and he will definitely not be stationed in the capital in the future. As long as Madam Bao is not here, as my uncle said, you are the only one in the mansion A young lady, why do you bother to listen to my uncle's sarcasm for him, you see that my uncle doesn't save you any face!"

Hong Yan sat in front of the mirror and removed the hairpin for herself. The person in the mirror had a beautiful face and a luxurious temperament, "Yan Bao and I are equal wives who entered the mansion on the same day. Even if my husband doesn't want to see him, I can't make trouble. Be careful of jealousy. Besides, I have seen clearly these days that my husband has a bad temper and is unpredictable. He and I are not in the same heart, and the husband and wife are deeply affectionate. That being the case, what he said today is to send Yan Bao away. Then I was sure that even if I came out to speak for Yan Bao, he would never send me away together. One of Yan Bao and I was given a marriage by the emperor, and the other was given by the queen mother. He was not brave enough to offend both the emperor and the queen Queen Mother."

"Madam is wise!" Liu Xu suddenly realized.

After taking off her make-up, Hong Yan sat by the bed, "My husband's behavior is bound to draw a line with the queen mother. From the day the queen mother bestowed Yan Bao on her marriage, it is doomed that there will only be one young lady left in this mansion!"

Liu Xu said, "Madam has a clear mind!"

Hong Yan sighed slightly, her father was right, the General's Mansion is the same as the Duke's Mansion, they are staunch royalists, and she happened to be the one who was bestowed by the Emperor to marry Xiong Zhengli, otherwise she would be sent out of the mansion now because of her poor health That's her.

There is a turmoil above the court hall, and even the back houses in the capital are inextricably linked with the court hall. It's hard to tell which is right and which is wrong here, it's just full of poor people.

The lights in the east courtyard were extinguished, Xiong Zhengli stared at the person on the bed who was trying to hide his breath, and said slowly, "I know you're awake."

Yan Bao opened his eyes, tears flowed from the corners of his eyes into his temples and disappeared into his black hair.

"I originally wanted you to learn how to be a housekeeper. Even if I can't back you up in the future, your power in the mansion is enough to speak for you." Xiong Zhengli sat by the bed, "I'm not a cold-hearted person, But now, you have to leave the mansion, otherwise even if you are in the general's mansion, it will not be able to protect you."

Yan Bao wept silently, remained silent and motionless.

"You have the support of Earl Ziyang's Mansion behind you. Even if you lose the protection of the General's Mansion, life will not be very difficult. This is the only way to protect you."

"I'm a pawn in your game, am I?" Yan Bao's eyes were filled with the ferocity of the nuns who taught him to suppress him. He was alone and helpless, in the palace, surrounded by hostile people, he was really scared.

"I know that you are not from the queen mother, but from the day the queen mother gave you the marriage, it is absolutely impossible for me to spoil and love you."

"That day..." Yan Bao blinked, tears fell, and slowly told his love at first sight for Xiong Zhengli, "From the moment I saw you on the carriage, I knew I had fallen. Ironically, I didn't know that I judge people by their appearance, but at that moment, I understood what it means to fall in love at first sight."

"I heard the news that you and Hong Yan were married by the emperor, so I foolishly wrote a letter to go to the northwest. For you, I still hold a glimmer of hope. Until I get married by the queen mother, I just feel that I am the luckiest one in the world." Man, at that time, I was really grateful to the Queen Mother."

"But I never thought that after getting married, you would be the beginning of my nightmare."
