Chapter 101: Countermeasures
Zhaoyang asked the maid to bring a big black cloth, and then surrounded the basin to block the light on both sides and behind. Phalaenopsis surrounded the black cloth, only exposed the front. When everyone looked at it, they saw that the petals emitted a faint light. After watching it for a while, the light gradually became stronger.
"Wow! So amazing! Who did this? He is so clever!"
"Although that pot of three-color chrysanthemum is good, this pot of Phalaenopsis is very special, and the flower shape is beautiful and festive. I don't know if there are any real flowers, so I want to plant a pot too."
“I want to plant it, too.”
So everyone asked who gave Zhaoyang Flower and asked her that she had no seeds.
"It was sent by Miss Chu Wu. She said there were no seeds. She saw it in her dream, so she drew it and stringed it with beads."
For a moment, everyone's focus instantly fell on Chu Xinyu. Even Prince Chu, who was greeting guests in Furong Hall, and several princes and princes came to play the fun.
"The shiny flower is so magical." Prince Chu was also surprised.
"Best Lord, this handmade flower is made of beads. I sprinkled some luminescent powder on it. These luminescent powders mainly absorb various light and heat, convert them into light energy to store, and then automatically shine in the dark." Chu Xinyu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Princess Zhaoyang discovered the secret of the handmade flower so quickly, and thought she would find it later tomorrow.
"Miss Chu Wu is indeed kind and has a broad sense of knowledge." King Jin's peach blossom eyes were staring at her with a burning look, the corners of his lips slightly raised, with a look of unconcealed praise.
Chu Xinyu frowned and thought to himself, how can he be seen everywhere, can't he not see him for a day? Because of Xu Zhilan, she was very fond of the King of Jin. Xu hated the house and the mistress. Who said he was the man Xu Zhilan wanted to marry, and the person who indirectly killed her parents and sisters.
Of course, she was so angry that she couldn't show her face here, so she lowered her head and bowed and said, "The King of Jin has been too rewarded." The long eyelashes fell quietly, covering up the displeasure in her eyes.
Fu Yinghua stood by and watched the scene, his eyes dark and unlighted. Princess Jing'an looked at her coldly. This time she didn't say anything. She had wanted to hold on to Fu Yinghua before, but she didn't get her face back and was slapped in the face in public.
In this situation, she was not inconvenient to say anything again, but when she watched Chu Xinyu’s gloriousness, she felt very unbalanced.
"It turns out that the fifth sister said to be what she likes is this. I really didn't expect that my sister is so clever." Chu Jiating came over to have a sisterly relationship with her, holding a glass of chrysanthemum wine in her hand, raised her glass and said, "Sister, sister, I wish you a glass, congratulations on winning the best first place today and bringing glory to our Marquis' Mansion."
After saying that, she first did it, and then poured a glass of wine for Chu Xinyu.
Chu Xinyu didn't expect that she was the first person to come to toast her. Her eyes met with Yang Qianjun in the air. Yang Qianjun blinked, and Chu Xinyu took her wine, blocked her face with her wide sleeves, raised her head and drank, and then wiped the wine traces on her lower lip with her sleeve.
Seeing Chu Jiating toast, several girls followed suit and wanted to get involved with Chu Xinyu. After all, her status is different now. When the emperor's imperial edict came, she would be the wife of the Marquis of Peking. Although she was very jealous and envious, she was not easy to offend her. If she had a good relationship with her now, she might have more contacts in the future.
When Chu Xinyu saw that they all toasted her, she immediately said that she could not drink much and would get drunk if she drank a little, and refused to be drunk at other people's house because she lost her identity.
But there is one person who must toast her, and this person is Zhao Yuyi. She said, "You can not drink other people's wine, but you must drink this glass. I'm sorry for you and knocked you into the water. Fortunately, you are fine. This glass is my apology wine. Don't give me a favor."
"I'll drink it for her. Xinyu is indeed unable to drink." Yang Qianjun took the wine she handed to Chu Xinyu with one hand. Seeing Zhao Yuyi's face slightly changed, she smiled and said, "If my daughter's family is drunk, it will be bad, and she will lose her composure. I will not be drunk for a thousand cups. Don't say a glass of fruit wine, it's okay to have ten cups."
When Zhao Yuyi heard her say this, she no longer forced herself. However, when Yang Qianjun just raised her head and wanted to drink the wine, someone suddenly hit her behind her, and the wine spilled out, just pouring on Chu Xinyu in front of her.
Chu Xinyu wore a light yellow embroidered bamboo leaves and plum blossom dress, and the fruit wine was light red, and it was sprinkled on the clothes, which was particularly obvious.
The little girl who bumped into Yang Qianjun said in panic: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I thought there was something under my feet biting me... I'll wipe it for you." As she said that, she took out her handkerchief and wanted to help Chu Xinyu wipe the water mark.
Chu Xinyu held her in one hand and said, "No need, the table will be almost gone anyway, so that's it."
"You are so careless!" Zhao Yuyi went over and pulled the little girl away and scolded her.
At this time, Luo Yunqing came over and said, "I brought an extra set of clothes. I have asked the maid to get them. I will ask where the wing is. I will accompany you to change the clothes."
"I don't……"
Chu Jiating pulled her arm and lowered her voice, "I heard that there is another program later. Your clothes are dirty, so you lose the face of the Marquis' Mansion. I thought our Marquis' Mansion was so poor that we couldn't afford to buy a piece of clothing."
Yang Qianjun said, "Let's go, I'll go with you."
After saying that, he pulled Chu Xinyu's hand and wanted to leave, but Zhao Yuyi pulled his wrist, "Since you said you are not drunk for a thousand cups, why not, let's have a competition?"
The girls looked at her in shock. Miss Zhao was too disgusted. She thought this was a restaurant and actually asked someone to fight with her. Only vulgar people in the market would make such a request.
For a moment, the eyes of her looked at her were full of contempt and contempt. No wonder Lin Ling called her a dilapidated house, without the elegance of a lady from a family.
The Zhao family originally had a title. When it was founded, it was named Wuyang Bo and was awarded the title for three generations. However, when Zhao Dashi's father's generation was just the third generation, the imperial court took back the title.
Therefore, Grand Secretary Zhao could only rely on the imperial examinations to become an official, and the Zhao family had a poor family. In order to pave the way for the NPC Zhao, Mrs. Zhao insisted on marrying the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Jiangnan as his official wife.
Mrs. Zhao's business methods are no worse than men, and her personality is relatively strong, so she controls Grand Secretary Zhao very strictly. Therefore, his colleagues often make fun of his wife Guan Yan. Therefore, the noble ladies and daughters in the capital look down on the Zhao girl from the bottom of their hearts. Now, when Zhao Yuyi says she wants to fight for wine, she even more despises her.
Yang Qianjun shook her hand away, raised her eyebrows gently, and said, "What kind of wine does my daughter fight for every family? If you want to fight, it is better to fight for poetry, lyrics, songs, and what if you lose, how about drinking?"
"this……"
Luo Yunqing said, "Miss Yang, you play with them, I will accompany Miss Chu to change clothes."
"I will take you to the wing room." A maid came over and said.
The familiar voice shocked Chu Xinyu. Although she had not seen the woman who brought the man in, she remembered the voice very clearly. Yes, it was this voice.
When Chu Xinyu heard the sound, she looked at the maid with a pretty face and a petite figure. Wasn’t she the maid who has been serving the princess next to the princess Chu?
How could it be the Princess Chu?
She felt that there must be some misunderstandings in this. How could Concubine Chu be with those who are not good for her? But everything is waiting for the result of my cousin. He has secretly allowed someone to observe which of these young men is pretending to come in.
An Qilan stood up and was about to say something, but when she saw Chu Xinyu winked at her, she immediately understood and pulled Sun Ruoya together, stood by Yang Qianjun, and pulled Zhao Yuyi to compete with her for poetry, lyrics and songs.
Chu Xinyu and Luo Yunqing left with the maid. At the door, they met Luo Yunqing's maid holding a bag. The three of them followed the maid. As soon as they walked through a corridor, a maid came hurriedly.
Luo Yunqing recognized her as Shang Chunhua's maid, so she grabbed her and asked, "Xiaomei, where are you going in such a hurry? Where are you cousin?" She remembered that her cousin left the table halfway through the meal and said she would come back. Who knew that no one was seen until now.
Seeing that it was her, Xiaomei forgot about etiquette and said anxiously: "The girl is still in the toilet. She said she had a bad stomach and asked me to come back to ask if there are any antidiarrhea drugs."
Luo Yunqing was worried when she heard that Shang Chunhua had a bad stomach. Seeing this, Chu Xinyu asked her to go out for work. She went with her maid and asked her to see her maid and asked her to find Chu Jiapeng and told her not to walk around.
Luo Yunqing nodded and asked the maid to give the bag to the maid, and then took the maid back.
The maid took her through the corridor and came to a quiet wing room. She lightly locked the door knocker three times and smiled: "This room is rarely used, and there are very few people coming here, for fear that the door knocker will have dust."
After saying that, she pushed open the door and lit the oil lamp, then pointed at the inside and said, "You go in here and change your clothes, I'll be guarding outside the door."
Chu Xinyu smelled a very faint fragrance when she went in. She didn't say anything and went into the inner room to change clothes. Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered, she heard the sound of the door closing outside, and then a "click" sound, as if the lock was falling.
Chu Xinyu did not go out to see what was going on, but looked at the inner room. There was only one bed here, and there was a wardrobe and a dressing table next to it.
The wardrobe is large and can accommodate a person. Now the wardrobe is open and there is nothing inside.
She changed her clothes and walked out. Of course the maid was gone. The fragrance in the room became fainter. She saw a window behind the hall that was opened.
She went over and pulled the door, locked from outside.
The maid had a problem. The fragrance in the room was a fragrance. Fortunately, she had prepared a lot. Lan Yi gave a sachet with a spice that could resist the fragrance, so she was fine after smelling the fragrance.
After waiting for about half a quarter of an hour, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside. I came to the door to stand, buckle the door knocker, and called Miss Chu twice. I didn't hear anyone inside, so the person outside came to the door panel and listened for a while, and there seemed to be a slight panting sound from inside.
After a while, Chu Xinyu heard the sound of unlocking outside, and then his footsteps left briskly.
At this time, a person jumped into the window behind the hall.
It's Xiao Jingxuan.
"Where is her?" Chu Xinyu asked the maid.
Xiao Jingxuan said: "I'm back."
Chu Xinyu guessed that the woman was going back to find someone, so she asked, "Where is that man?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the door was pushed open. A handsome man came in with a sleepy man, walked into the inner room, put the person on the bed, and then went out, and carried another sleepy woman in and placed it on the bed.
Chu Xinyu was about to go up and see who it was, but Xiao Jingxuan stopped him and said, "Don't look." He didn't want her to see the dirty things.
"Who is that woman?" She couldn't see her face, but her clothes looked familiar.
Xiao Jingxuan said: "Today, I accused you of robbing her hydrangea."
"Tong Zhen?" Chu Xinyu was surprised. She thought it was Tong Zhen because she had offended not only these people because she had come back. In addition, she failed to frame her and was driven out instead. She must have hated herself.
"Well, there is another man named Gu, let her go tonight."
The main idea was made by Tong Zhen. The only one with Gu was only providing connections. Moreover, the one with Tong was waiting for news outside the palace, so he asked someone to kidnap her directly.
In the last life, this woman put the medicine into Chu Xinyu's wine. If it weren't for her, Chu Xinyu wouldn't have fallen into the water. She was saved by that person and would not have been abandoned by that person later.
Chu Xinyu asked with a gloomy face: "What about this man, who is he?" She wanted to know who Tong Zhen asked to insult her.
"A liar, also a gambler. His family lives in Xicheng. His first wife was beaten to death by him. Now he owes a lot of debts. His second wife has been sold to a brothel to pay off the gambling debts." He could find out the other party's life experience so quickly, but Lin Chenyao was still as numerous as Lin Chenyao.
Chu Xinyu was so surprised that she couldn't stop talking about her. Tong Zhen actually found such a person. She had a little sympathy for this girl, but she knew that it was Tong Zhen and she also found such a person. She immediately put away the sympathy and didn't think that her cousin was cruel to do this.
If she hadn't heard that someone was not good for her and was ready for everything, she would have been fascinated by people now, defiled by this person, and ruined her reputation!
Chu Xinyu asked in a cold voice: "Who brought him in?" She didn't believe that this matter was related to Princess Chu, but her maid was an accomplice.
"If you want to ask the prince of Chu, he seems to have found out his eyes."
At that time, the handsome man did everything and walked out and said, "Master, everything is arranged."
Xiao Jingxuan nodded, "Okay, go out and close the door." After saying that, he said to Chu Xinyu again, "Let's go from behind, those people are coming soon."
The man walked out and closed the door. Xiao Jingxuan took Chu Xinyu out of the window and closed the window. The two of them took another way to leave.
Sure enough, not long after, a maid led a few girls to push the door and said, "If you want to change your clothes, just change it here, and go later..."
A sudden scream interrupted her.
In the Peony Hall, the Princess Chu was chatting with a few noble ladies. A pale maid hurried to her and possessed her and whispered a few words.
When the Princess Chu heard this, her face changed. She glanced at the second wife Chu and the Lord of Yuzhen whom she had just talked to. The second wife Chu was suddenly seen by her, looked at the Lord of Yuzhen, and asked the Princess Chu softly: "What's wrong?"
The Princess Chu didn't say anything, and told Princess Duan to help her entertain guests, and then said to Mrs. Chu: "You and Yuzhen come with me."
