Upon hearing her mother's name, Qing Lingyi's demeanor changed instantly.
The usual confused and soft appearance is gone, just like the snow on the leaves of bamboo shaken off, it is bright, clear and full of life.
She grabbed Biwei's arm and said, "Is there any news about mother?"
Biwei told everything about today.
She was called to reconcile the accounts and found something strange and inconsistent.
What's even weirder is Jiao Er, who is very dishonest and has sneaky eyes that frequently drift toward Bi Wei.
Bi Wei frowned and wanted to call someone in.
Jiao Erdui put on a hypocritical smile and asked, "I heard that Lord Ling Jiang's son, Jiang Yizhou, the current Minister of Household Affairs, was once a classmate of the third lady?"
Biwei straightened her face and said, "No."
Jiao Er rubbed his chin: "It seems that Miss Biwei is not a good and honest girl."
This scene is greasy and absurd. Bi Wei was speechless and started to leave.
"Why!"
Jiao Ershu shamelessly grabbed her, "Miss Biwei is so angry, she didn't even listen to what I had to say!"
Biwei said word by word: "Don't let go, I'll call someone."
Jiao Er said with a smile: "Master Jiang said that he wants to see Madam."
Bi Wei was very annoyed: "If he wants to visit, then he should hand in the message from the front door..."
"I said I got some news about General Qing, and I want to tell my wife face to face."
Bi Wei was suddenly startled and frowned.
Six years ago, the Huyan clan's cavalry invaded brazenly, and Qing Yan led his troops north to meet the enemy.
In the letter sent home to Qing Lingyi, Qing said that the border was very cold and this battle would not be easy to fight, but King Huyan still could not change his arrogance and arrogance and could not win against her.
However, Liang Jun was defeated and retreated hundreds of miles away.
The humane minister said she died in battle, but there were no bones, and even her weapon, the horse, could not be found.
This undoubtedly gave Qing Lingyi and Bi Wei, including Zuo Xuan, some meager hope.
They are all using their own methods to investigate in the west, trying to get even a little bit of information about Qing Yan.
Before Jiang Yizhou went out to become an official, Qing Lingyi said that if he heard anything about his mother, he would definitely tell her.
At this moment, she frowned and asked, "Where is Jiang Yizhou now?"
"The flower hall on the west side. He said he would not leave until he saw his wife."
"Okay," Qing Lingyi nodded, "I'll go right away."
·
at the same time.
Wu Liang stepped into the pavilion with a serious look on his face.
Grandma Sun had seen this scene many times and was used to it. She greeted Cheng Anle very discerningly: "It's hot here, Miss Anle, let's go inside and eat."
Cheng Anle nodded obediently.
After they left, Wu Liang reported: "Jiang Yizhou is here again, in the west flower hall."
Cheng Yang was not surprised, but asked: "He contacted Biwei?"
"...through Jiao Er."
Wu Liang's voice was muffled because everything was under the control of the general.
He thought that the general's gradual tenderness towards his wife during these days was because he was moved, but he did not expect that this was the calm under the storm.
The general actually made plans himself and deliberately gave Jiang Yizhou and his wife a chance to meet.
why?
Cuckold yourself?
"General..." Wu Liang couldn't hold it back and wanted to ask clearly.
Cheng Yang suddenly said: "Wu Liang, do you want to make a bet?"
Wu Liang was stunned: "Bet?"
Cheng Yang was thoughtful: "Tell me, will Qing Lingyi go to the appointment?"
Wu Liang was stunned again and said resolutely: "If I go, it will be a private meeting. Madam is a married woman and will definitely not go!"
"So, you bet she won't go."
"Definitely not! Even if she has to go, she will definitely tell the general first!" Wu Liang spoke from the bottom of his heart. He had met his wife and knew that she was a smart person.
Cheng Yang nodded and said lazily: "Then I'll bet she will go."
Wu Liang didn't understand what he meant.
"Since it's a bet, there must be a bet."
Cheng Yang raised his eyes. From his angle, he could see the door of the small kitchen.
His words were smooth, as if he were talking about something extremely trivial: "If you win, you will eat my bowl of noodles. But if I win..."
He was about to say something cruel when he suddenly coughed violently.
"General!"
"Go..." Cheng Yang's lips turned white, "Cough, bring the medicine."
He thought he was getting better in the past few days, but he didn't drink medicine very diligently, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't do it.
Wu Liang hurried to the study.
·
Kitchenette.
Qing Lingyi had already reached the door. Suddenly he thought of something and stopped.
Biwei followed behind and was caught off guard, hitting her back with his head.
She said "Ouch", covered her forehead and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"
"Do you think it's strange?" Qing Lingyi turned around.
"strangeness?"
"Not to mention anything else," Qing Lingyi said, "Cheng Yang doesn't seem like someone who would let such a thing happen."
Bi Wei also realized: "Is this a plan by Aunt Zhao or someone else?"
Qing Lingyi found this difficult to say because Aunt Zhao was no longer in charge of the house and her power was not as great as before.
Based on what Qing Lingyi has discovered so far, Aunt Zhao may not dare or be able to make such moves under Cheng Yang's nose.
She vaguely remembered that before falling asleep yesterday, Cheng Yang asked her about Jiang Yizhou.
Could this be Cheng Yang's plan?
But what does he want?
"If it's an ordinary thing, that's it. We can tell General Cheng first. But about General Qing..." Bi Wei was troubled.
"Yeah," Qing Lingyi also had a headache, "Cheng Yang can't know about this, so we have to go."
·
In the pavilion, the concoction brought by Wu Liang had already cooled down, but Cheng Yang was unconscious and drank the whole bowl of wine.
Putting down the bowl, he looked at the door of the small kitchen. Through the flower tree, he saw Qing Lingyi leaving the kitchen. Without stopping, he walked straight to the outside of Yanshan Residence.
Cheng Yang's handsome face sank inch by inch.
"General..." Wu Liang also noticed it, and sighed in his heart that Madam is really confused!
What the general hates most is betrayal!
No matter who it is, there are no exceptions.
Even though they are classmates, the Cheng and Jiang families have had hatred for many years. The mere fact that Madam went to see Jiang Yizhou was already a death sentence for the general.
There was dead silence in the pavilion.
The red sun rose into the sky, the heat wave rolled in, but Wu Liang's back felt chilly.
Cheng Yang was also disturbed by the heat and felt inexplicably irritable.
He had clearly taken the medicine, but he still had chest tightness and dizziness, which were more serious than the previous few days, and even similar to the feeling he had on his way back to the North after his victory in the Southwest.
He fell into a coma that day and took a long time to wake up.
He closed his eyes and stood up suddenly.
Wu Liang was surprised: "General, where are you going?"
Cheng Yang didn't look back: "To the west, the flower hall."
Wu Liang reacted for a moment and looked slightly happy: "Are you going to stop Madam?"
Cheng Yang sneered, with a fierce and ferocious light in his eyes, "I want to kill her."
