Chapter 38 Past Events

The poisoning of Jin Xi was investigated quickly, and it was indeed written by Ning Jieyu. When she heard that Ning Jieyu saw evidence, she refused to admit it and tried her best to slander Jin Xi, and the emperor was furious and gave her three feet of white silk.

When Chen Yuan knew this, she couldn't help but sigh. Although Ning Jieyu was sinister, she was a life after all. She was once the princess of Fengxia Kingdom, but now she ended up like this, which made people sigh.

I thought the matter would be settled, but I didn't expect that three days later, Wangyu died in the lake in the middle of the night, causing another uproar. There were rumors in the palace that Ning Jieyu was framed and came to find someone to take his life.

Jin Xi was so scared that Xuan summoned Chen Yuan into the palace to accompany her for a few days.

Chen Yuan went to Jinxi's palace gate and saw that it was so desolate that it even made people's hair stand up. She quickly asked Yuxiu and the others to clean it up, and opened the door and windows of the palace to let the sunlight shine in.

Jin Xi is a little bit haggarder than before, and I think she has not been doing well these few days.

"elder sister……"

Jin Xi stood up from the imperial concubine's couch, looking bleak, "Sister, I'm so scared..."

Chen Yuan comforted her for a while, "Sister, don't be afraid, she will be punished with evil. Sister is open and honest. Are you still afraid that she will not succeed?"

Jin Xi shook her head, wanted to speak but stopped, and finally turned into a sigh. Chen Yuan was puzzled and asked her if she had any worries, but Jin Xi refused to speak out, which made Chen Yuan even more curious.

Jin Xi stepped back and asked, "How about you, win?"

Unexpectedly, when Jin Xi asked this, Chen Yuan was a little confused, but she still lowered her head, her happy face made people even more sure that she was doing well. Jin Xi sighed again, Chen Yuan was so restless that she was like this.

"What my sister wants to say, why not say it directly. This really makes me..."

"Actually, I know that although Concubine Ning hates me, she will not harm me." Jin Xi said this quietly, which scared Chen Yuan. Jin Xi continued: "The reason why she was convicted so quickly was because of winning the court."

"Young Master?" Chen Yuan thought carefully. Recently, Yu Jing and Xihua joined forces to attack Fengxia. Are they afraid that Fengxia would use Ning Jieyu's hand to tamper with her in the palace, so they couldn't wait to get rid of her? "How do you know sister?"

Speaking of this, Jin Xi looked painful, "Wang Yu... She happened to have encountered something she shouldn't have met, so... I've hurt her..."

"Sister, what's going on?"

"Wangyu came back that evening and told me that she heard the man around her instructing Ning Jieyu's maid to perjure evidence. I didn't believe it at first. The lady didn't seem to be someone who would harm me, so she told Wangyu not to speak out. Unexpectedly, she ended up killing her. They must have killed someone to silence him. Yuan'er, what should I do..."

Seeing Jin Xi's dying collapse, Chen Yuan was a little puzzled, "Sister said that the wife pretended to be a Gong Qingxiu, but in fact she sent someone to poison you and then blame Concubine Ning Jie? In this way, she was not suspected of being an enemy of you in the palace, and the emperor favored her, so no one suspected her..."

Jin Xi sighed and agreed to Chen Yuan's speculation.

"But if this is true, it is impossible for me to leave no clues, so my sister means that the young master is helping her conceal her evidence of the crime?" Chen Yuan struggled to express her question, "Young master... why did she do this?"

"Sister, can you tell me that before the wife entered the palace, she had been... growing up in Yingxiang's family."

A sentence was like a shocking thunder, which made Chen Yuan's ears buzzing. She never thought that her wife would have anything to do with Ying Mansion.

Jin Xi held Chen Yuan's cold fingers and sighed for her, "I heard from the palace servants that if the emperor hadn't snatched his love from the sword, now her wife..."

"Sister, stop talking," Chen Yuan thought of everything before, and some things gradually surfaced. No wonder she always felt familiar with her wife. How similar was her eyebrows and eyes to the person in the painting? No wonder Wanwan looked wrong in front of Chenxiang Tower. She was obviously afraid that Chen Yuan knew about the past between Ying Zhen and her wife. It turned out that the young master really had someone else in his heart, and this person was actually a wife...

"Sister, don't be sad. I don't want to tell you these things, but I'm afraid that you will blame me if you know it in the future."

Chen Yuan shook her head. She was a little confused now. She was afraid, afraid that she was not good enough, and afraid that this marriage would eventually become empty. She originally thought that the sixth day of the September 19th was very close, but now she felt that the day was so far away...

The two were talking when Yuxiu came in and said that it was the wife who sent someone to deliver something.

Jin Xi thanked him respectfully, but after seeing afterwards, most of them were taken tonics, so she couldn't help but frown, then looked at Chen Yuan with a little hesitation, "Yuan'er, last time you said you wanted to find a safe imperial physician for me, I wonder if there is a way?"

Chen Yuan was a little apologized and sighed, "The imperial physician in the palace is afraid that he can't concentrate on serving his sister. Why don't I find a medical woman outside the palace to be a maid for my sister?"

"No need," Jin Xi lowered his eyes and advised lightly: "It's not that important. Since I can't bribe the imperial physician, it's a bit troublesome to get people in from outside the palace. Not to mention the fact that the people are well-deserved, even my identity is not suitable to make trouble for things to attract attention."

Seeing this, Chen Yuan didn't say anything. He originally wanted Aunt Tang to find a reliable person outside, but Jin Xi didn't want to make a lot of effort and Chen Yuan couldn't force it. Besides, she was not sure if something happened to Aunt Tang, so she should not take the initiative first, so she would save Jin Xi from being disappointed.

"Don't take care of me... Look at you, you don't even know that the wife is from the Ying Mansion. You can hide such a big thing without saying it. It's obvious that they treat you like this... Yuan'er, don't you feel disheartened?" Jin Xi blew the green tea leaves floating in the teacup, and looked at them rolling down, asking a little carelessly.

"Who hasn't passed yet? The lady is already a concubine. Will there be any change? If I hold on to these things, wouldn't I be ignorant?" She smiled slightly, and her calm and generous tone seemed to be completely from the heart, making Jin Xi unable to see any trace of cover.

Having said that, the past between the wife and the young master planted seeds in Chen Yuan's heart. The more she forced herself not to be curious, the more she could not control her heart. It turned out that she cared too much about a person, so she was so cautious and so cowardly.

That night, Chen Yuan tossed and turned, and she recalled the scene when she first met the young master, as if it was yesterday. The young master always behaved elegantly in front of her, speaking as jade, acting easely, and not irrationally at all. Chen Yuan always felt that such a young master was admired by her and admired her, but now she realized that perhaps it was because the young master didn't like her that he was so relaxed and polite. I believe that when he learned that his wife was in trouble, he would definitely not be so unrestless...

Chen Yuan felt frustrated for the first time, and for the first time he discovered that not everyone likes this kind of self. It turns out that in front of love, it has nothing to do with perfection. Everyone is the same between love and not love.

After staying with Jin Xi for almost three days, Ying Zhen did not say a greeting. Chen Yuan became even more depressed. He didn't know if he was suspicious and wanted to be valued but not taken seriously. He felt even more nervous. Finally, he was on the day he left the palace and the person who took Chen Yuan told her that the young master had been leaving Lindongcheng for several days after being ordered.

Seeing that Chen Yuan's birthday was getting closer and no one mentioned this in the mansion, Zhong Ling was still a little angry. Chen Yuan didn't say much. After all, this place is not as good as the Western China. How many people pay attention to their joy like that? But my grandfather traveled thousands of miles and asked someone to bring her a gift.

Chen Yuan's eyes suddenly turned red and she missed her grandfather very much.

Mrs. Ying sent someone to greet her and said she wanted to take her back to the house to celebrate, but Chen Yuan didn't have the same intention, so she said that she was discomfort and she shook her off. She was in her current state and didn't want to go to Ying's house. Although this move was a little willful, this little birthday was not a big deal. Mrs. Ying asked her to rest for a while, saying that it would be okay to wait for Ying Zhen to come back before re-working.

Until the birthday, Chen Yuan was still wondering if the young master would suddenly come back to celebrate her birthday with her, but most of the day passed and there was still no news.

Whenever someone passed by the door, Chen Yuan couldn't help but look around, but she still had to hide it, for fear of being seen. Zhong Ling and the mothers organized a large table of vegetables to celebrate her birthday at noon, but Chen Yuan didn't eat much, so she was a little hungry now. Chen Yuan didn't know what she was competing for, but she felt uncomfortable with a sense of depression and couldn't say it out. After all, nothing happened, and she couldn't even find a reason for her grievance.

The peach trees in the courtyard have already fallen, and the trees are scattered on the treetops. The green leaves absorb water and lie loosely on the branches. The green peaches under the leaves have long been revealed, but they are still small and green and tender, making people unable to help but want to try them first.

Chen Yuan looked at the gradually sinking sunset and sighed again.

"Miss, this is the first time you sighed today... Oh, I've been a bit wrong!" Zhong Ling couldn't help but complain, "Miss is always depressed when she comes back from the palace. It's true that the son-in-law is. Even if she is not around, she doesn't know how to give a gift to make the lady happy!"

It was rare to see Zhong Ling complaining to the young master, and Chen Yuan was a little amused, "You, you have no way to cover up your words. I am just not happy in my heart. What does it have to do with him?"

"Miss, don't refuse to admit it. You see, you are so haggard recently... At night - do you want to go out to relax?" Zhong Ling said insensation.
