Jiang Yunxu waved her hand and returned to the yard, and everything returned to calm. She turned around and told Hong Qiao: "Find someone to watch her and don't let her wander around."
"Princess, does she suspect that Haitang is up to no good?" Hong Qiao was surprised.
Jiang Yunxu shook his head: "I wish I was overthinking it, but it's always right to be more cautious."
Especially at this juncture, you should pay more attention to any strange face that appears.
"Let's check with Aunt Tan again to see if there is anything unusual during this period, including her son."
Today, Aunt Tan has repeatedly been rude and dared to go directly to Chu Xuanzhi in front of her. This is indeed a taboo.
Hong Qiao nodded.
Since Haitang came to her yard, there hasn't been much movement, she doesn't talk much, she doesn't run around, she just does her own thing.
Sweeping the yard, occasionally helping with starch and washing clothes, and other times taking care of the flowers and plants under the eaves.
In the evening, Chu Xuanzhi came to Jiang Yunxu with a box of snacks in his hand. He happened to see Haitang pruning the flower branches with scissors in her hand. For some reason, her hand slipped and the scissors cut her hand, causing blood to pour out.
Haitang couldn't help but shouted in a low voice. She sadly picked up the peony that she had accidentally cut off on the ground. She was about to go to the house to plead guilty, but unexpectedly saw Chu Xunzhi walking up the steps.
"Slave...slave deserves to die. I didn't mean it." Haitang's face was red, her eyes were blurred, her lips were white and dry, and she didn't look normal at first glance.
Chu Xuanzhi frowned.
The next second, Haitang fell to the ground holding the peony flower in her hand and fell unconscious.
Seeing this, Chu Xuanzhi sighed: "Find a doctor to take a look at it."
"Why bother looking for a doctor? I'm ready-made?" Jiang Yunxu heard the noise and put down what he was doing and walked out. He bent down to take Haitang's pulse and frowned: "This is caused by overwork. These days,
This girl never rested."
Chu Xuanzhi was a little confused.
"Slave...Slave, everything is fine." Haitang opened his eyes leisurely and moved, gritted his teeth and propped himself up to kneel down again: "Slave, I am just too grateful to the princess for taking me in, so I want to do more things. All of this has nothing to do with the princess."
Jiang Yunxu did not defend herself, but nodded calmly: "This girl tells the truth. She works from morning to night without stopping. She cleans the yard spotlessly from top to bottom."
Haitang was slightly stunned and looked at Jiang Yunxu cautiously.
The other party smiled at her.
"Now that you have come to my place, don't think about whether you are grateful or not. Those who don't know may think that I am treating you harshly. It doesn't matter if you are tired. It is too rude of you to scare people. Fortunately, today it is the prince.
I’m here, I won’t argue with you.”
Jiang Yunxu generously waved her hand and asked someone to send Haitang back to rest. He also asked someone to give her some medicine to take. He also told her: "You should have a good rest these days. You are exhausted. I want to take it."
Carrying the reputation of harsh treatment.”
A few words made Haitang speechless. She couldn't even speak anymore and lowered her head in shame: "Yes, I will listen to the princess."
After the people left, the corridor became clear.
Jiang Yunxu looked at Chu Xuuzhi, expecting him to mention this matter, but instead he shook the snack in his hand.
"It took a while, but it should still be hot. Try it quickly. This is the result of the shopkeeper's new research."
He entered the room and put the snacks on the table and opened them. There were three kinds of snacks in total. Their shapes were exquisite and attractive.
"Don't you blame me?" she asked.
Chu Xuanzhi smiled: "There are at least dozens of people who serve my mother-in-law. As you said, they are just slaves. My mother-in-law has not treated her badly. You have given her a place to stay today, which is considered a kindness. Why should I blame you?"
you?"
He didn't take this matter to heart at all. What made Haitang stay was not the identity of Concubine Wan's personal maid, but the fact that her sister was Haiyun and died of poisoning.
For Hai Yun's sake, Chu Xunzhi could turn a blind eye.
Hearing this, Jiang Yunxu felt more relieved. She smiled and tasted a few snacks. Chu Xuazhi thoughtfully poured her a cup of tea to moisten her throat.
After she felt calm, she told her the purpose of coming here.
"The emperor was suddenly hit by a strange poison and fell unconscious. The doctors were helpless and the capital was almost in chaos. Prime Minister Jiang, that old fox, also took the opportunity to return to the capital."
Jiang Yunxu was stunned. His first reaction was that this matter might be a conspiracy, deliberately set up by Emperor Lingzhou.
