Rebirth Of the Vicious Empress - C92
After finally putting away all of the Second Miss’s dried clothes, Zhao Zi turned around, wanting to thank her, but she had not seen the pink butterfly.
“What are you looking for? “Eh, have you finished packing?”
Zhao Fen ran in, her body still wet from the rain, “Miss, you were worried that you didn’t remember, so you hurriedly told me to come back and help you, I didn’t expect you to be so nimble.”
Zhao Zi looked at the pile of clothes, hesitated for a while, and said: “I called for help earlier, I don’t know where those little girls went. It was Cai Die who helped me tidy them up.”
Hearing that, Zhao Fen was startled, the 100 fold Immortal Leaning Dress in her hands landed on the bed, after a while she said: “Could it be that she wants to take the chance to claim credit?”
However, Zhao Fen knew very well what kind of person the Second Miss was. It was already an excellent idea to not be seen through in front of the Second Miss.
“Whatever.” Zhao Zi did not have the heart to think about all this, “I should first help me gather all these clothes, luckily they weren’t drenched by the rain, otherwise it would be such a pity.”
Zhao Fen nodded her head, the two of them moved extremely quickly, and not long after, they packed up all the clothes that were left to dry today, but Zhao Zi just frowned slightly, “Why is there one less maple leaf skirt, and a handkerchief?”
Hearing that, Zhao Fen looked carefully, and saw that all the clothes were hung in the wardrobe, with one glance, it was clear that the lakeshore dress with the red maple embroidered on it was not there.
“Did you not notice that you were blown away by the wind? The sun is high and the wind is strong. The dress made of lakesilk is light and thin, so it’s possible that it was blown away by the wind, let alone that handkerchief. ”
Zhao Zi heard and nodded his head, “Perhaps, I will look for her later, but do not tell Second Miss about this matter, I do not want to be exposed.”
Zhao Fen nodded her head helplessly, “Alright, it’s just that Miss is a very clear person, if you can’t find her, you have to tell her, okay?”
The two sisters chatted for a while longer before they left. Outside the window, each of them held a handkerchief and stared at it for a long time. A trace of a smile appeared on the corner of their lips before they slowly left.
When Chu Wenjin got the silk handkerchief, his lips formed a smile, “Well done, I will naturally do what I promised. Don’t go back and make a name for yourself, when Chu Qinghuan’s reputation is in ruins, that will be the day you get your wish granted.”
The corner of the thin woman’s mouth slightly rose when she heard that, “Then I’ll wait quietly for Second Young Master’s beautiful voice.”
Chu Wenjin watched as that person left, and a hint of disdain flashed past the corner of his eyes, “They’re indeed the same kind of people. At that time …” Chu Wenjin looked into the distance, and in no time, a manservant came running back.
“Young Master, Young Master Yun said that he still has a few medical books to read, so he won’t follow Young Master out to drink today.”
Chu Wenjin couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this, “Do you want to read again?” A cold snort came out of his nose, scaring the manservant so much that he didn’t even dare to breathe loudly, as he watched Chu Wenjin’s figure gradually grow further and further away, and he let out a long sigh of relief.
“The Young Master Yun is the same as well. He doesn’t give face to the Second Young Master even though he’s living with others. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Old Mistress has such a strong backer, he wouldn’t be able to continue living here anymore, right?” After saying that, he suddenly thought of something and quickly shut up. He looked around and let out a long sigh.
Seeing that the manservant had gone back to being lazy, Yun Jianying quietly left. She only looked at the direction that Chu Wenjin had gone and chased after him after a long while.
Things are always the opposite.
Ever since the Gui Hua Feast, Chu Wenjin was only indifferent to himself, and did not have any of his previous friendships anymore. However, somehow, he called someone to invite him out to drink, and even though Yun Jianying did not know anything, he knew that there was a problem.
He followed manservant to Chu Wenjin’s courtyard only to see that Chu Wenjin’s expression was not extremely strange, just that Yun Jianying was still worried. It’s not like he didn’t know what was going on in the Residence of Prime Minister’s back room. The First Madame s were all beaten up now, but Chu Wenjin didn’t even make a move, how was that possible?
Thinking about that, Yun Jianying followed Chu Wenjin and caught up. He had learned medicine from her master and had some attainments in martial arts, although Chu Wenjin had been in the battlefield for a long time, he was still inferior to him. It was just that when Yun Jianying entered the Taotie residence, she was slightly startled.
Taotie Residence had always been a place for aristocrats in the capital to play games. Beautiful wine and delicious food were by his side, and he was in a daze when he heard a burst of laughter from the door, “Second Young Master is late, could it be that someone tripped them up?”
Chu Wenjin laughed loudly, “How can that be? He was just planning to bring a friend here, but since we didn’t see him, he took up a bit of time. Wenjin ordered for a cup of wine to be given to himself, to apologize to everyone.”
“You want to apologize with a single cup? How can that work? “At least three cups. Come, let Wen Xiang pour some wine for the Second Young Master.”
The more Yun Jianying listened, the more she could not bear to listen. She did not expect that the young and talented Chu Wenjin was just a facade, the current unruly and unruly person was probably his true self. Thinking to this point, he could no longer sit still, and left with a flick of her sleeves.
The corner of Chu Wenjin’s mouth slightly rose as he raised his cup and laughed, “My uncle from a small country is so literary, Wenjin, come and drink another cup with me.” There seemed to be something floating down from his sleeve, but he didn’t know what it was.
After exiting the Tao Tie Residence, Yun Jianying felt that there was a vast sea of people in front of him. Everyone was walking in a hurry, but she didn’t know where she should go to.
He headed to the right, and returned to the Prime Minister’s Mansion, where his Junior Sister was.
After hesitating for a moment, Yun Jianying’s right foot first…
“Miss, it’s all because Zhao Zi couldn’t take care of her that she lacked the maple leaf dress and handkerchief.”
Zhao Zi did not understand. Even if the wind was blowing, she had already looked through the surroundings of the Zhi Lan Institution for the past two days. How could she not find him? Yet, not a single trace of them could be seen. It was as if someone had taken them away …
Zhao Zi suddenly raised her head, only to see a smile emerging on Chu Qinghuan’s lips, “Forget it, there are people who can’t sit still. If she is serious, it’s natural for you to be negligent even if you are on guard.”
Zhao Zi was confused, what did Second Miss mean by those words? Who could that “she” be? She only recalled what happened that day and could not help but ask softly, “Miss, do you want this servant to look for her at Pink Butterfly’s place?” After all, there was only one person who helped her that day.
Hearing this, Chu Qinghuan shook her head, “There’s no need, I’ll be more careful when I get back.” Since that side had already made their move, wouldn’t it be a shame for her to not respond?
It was night. After Chu Qinghuan finished removing her makeup, the Nanny Zhou walked in gently, “Miss, we have investigated thoroughly.” As she spoke, she handed over a piece of paper.
Chu Qinghuan frowned slightly. When Nanny Zhou saw this, she could not help but feel embarrassed: “I, that brat, am not writing like any other, please excuse me.”
It was indeed a crooked character. If it wasn’t for her meticulously inspecting it, she would not have recognized it. However …
“I’ll make things difficult for him. Later on, let him read with his brother. Men’s words are like human beings. Since I rely on my mother, I can’t have weak soldiers under my command. What do you think, Mommy?”
The Nanny Zhou was overjoyed, the young master had already extended the invitation to the teacher, the son of his own clan had gone to the young master’s courtyard to read and learn, wasn’t that the identity of the close manservant? According to the importance Second Miss placed on the Eldest Young Master, taking good care of the Eldest Young Master, could it be …
“This servant thanks Miss. Thank you Miss.” Nanny Zhou actually knocked her head, Chu Qinghuan then signaled her to stand up, “You guys have all worked hard, go and rest.”
The two of them knew Chu Qinghuan’s temperament, so they did not speak further after closing the door.
Looking at the words written on the paper, Chu Wenjin’s traces for the past few days, Chu Qinghuan frowned slightly, and sighed after a long while, “It’s indeed as she said, how could the man’s family stir up trouble by planning this incident in the backyard?”
It was just that after he found out where Chu Wenjin was, Chu Qinghuan wasn’t in a hurry anymore. As he looked at the red candle that was about to cry, he extinguished the candle flame and slept soundly the entire night without mentioning anything else.
Chu Qinghuan rested well, but there were people who were anxious. When Chu Wenjin saw that his precious sister had actually invited him here in such a rush to ask about his progress, he felt even more disgusted and infuriated with Chu Qinghuan.
“You cannot be too hasty with this matter, but the young master is a wild man, I believe the news will be released in a few days, at that time, Xiu Er, you just need to wait to see Chu Qinghuan’s face, which is filled with panic.”
Chu Wenjin wanted to leave, but he was stopped by Chu Jinxiu, “Second Brother, thank you.”
Her brother was a brilliant and talented man. If her father found out that her brother had gone along with the rascals in the upper echelons of the capital for her sake, he would definitely be severely punished.
Chu Wenjin naturally understood his sister’s thoughts, but when he saw the worry on her pure face, he gently reached out and wiped away the worry that couldn’t be seen, “Silly Xiu Er, between us siblings, why are you being so courteous?”
Hearing that, Chu Jinxiu’s starry eyes turned, and she chuckled, “It’s my sister’s fault. Second Brother has worked hard today, hurry up and go back to rest.”
Chu Wenjin nodded, but when he walked out of the room, he turned his head back and said, “Rest assured, just in these two or three days, Chu Qinghuan’s reputation will definitely go down the drain.”
Chu Jinxiu listened and nodded, but she did not expect that the storm would come so quickly, and hit him instead.
Because the Second Wife’s Chang Jin Yue was going to return in a few days, these few days the young ladies of the Prime Minister’s residence were helping the First Madame clean up the Dawn Garden. After tidying up the place with great difficulty, the Old Mistress ordered for everyone to go to the Pear Fragrance Garden to eat.
On the table, Chu Jinfu was pulling Chu Qinghuan’s arm to make her eat an extra piece of sweet and sour pork, “Look at Second Elder Sister, she’s so thin that even Grandmother’s heart hurts when she sees it, I want to ask Aunt for an extra gift.”
The Old Mistress laughed upon hearing this, and instructed the Nanny Lin to scoop up a bowl of pigeon soup to nourish her body. However, Chu Qinghuan suddenly remembered what she had said last night when Ji Fengye had his bones exposed.
“Such a body with the Red Braised Ribs is truly appetizing.”
Chu Qinghuan was infuriated, her hands moved up and down her body, but she disdained his figure, “Prince can leave here to find that Huan Huan, why bother you?”
That person laughed lightly, “If Regional Commander leaves, wouldn’t little beauty be unable to sleep? Furthermore, with such a physique, how can it be possible for him to harm others?
How could anyone be more shameless than that monster? Looking at the plate of Red Braised Ribs, Chu Qinghuan’s cheeks flushed slightly, but she refused to let go of her chopsticks no matter what. Chu Jinfu, who was at the side, saw everything clearly and laughed: “What is Second Elder Sister shy about? If not, I’ll help you get it when I get it, but it’s just an extra gift. Second Elder Sister, you have to split half of it with me. ”
Chu Qinghuan immediately regained her senses, but upon thinking about it, she realized that Chu Jinfu was just playing tricks with her again. She could not help but shake her head lightly, and was about to speak when she heard someone angrily shouting from outside: “Evil girl, come out right now!”
