Unspeakable?

Ah Shu knew very well that she couldn't think of anything else except her infertility. Such a thing, he had to tell Liu Xiong himself.

Thinking of the relationship between the two in the dream of the previous life, Ah Shu was a little uneasy, she pursed her lips a little, and hinted: "I don't know what Ji has to say, but I have to tell the king, I have something to do, first Tell Ji."

"The queen is talking, and the concubine is all ears."

Looking at Jiang Chengjun's unwavering beauty, Ashu straightened her back more and more, and brewed tea with her own hands, until the dryness in the room was slightly moistened by the steam of the tea soup, Fang said through a haze: "Then Although Zheng Jialangjun is good in everything, the only thing is a little different, and I don't want to hide it from Ji, so I will tell the truth."

"There is already an adopted child in Zheng Jun's family. Both his biological parents have passed away, and they are raised under Zheng Jun's knees, just like their parents and children. If a woman marries, she will be recognized by the child as a first-mother."

Jiang Chengjun's flawless and delicate face finally had a crack.

Her hand on the side of the skirt suddenly tightened, and she suddenly raised her eyes, looking at A Shu with vigilance and suspicion: "What does the queen mean?"

A Shu saw her reaction in her eyes, smiled and said, "Ji Duo worry, I have no other intentions." She picked up the pot herself and poured another cup of tea for Jiang Chengjun, "If Ji is difficult to make a decision, you can go back and think carefully. After thinking about it, order someone to tell you."

Jiang Chengjun's face was expressionless, he tried his best to hide the sharpness in his eyes, bowed slightly to thank him, and raised a cup of tea.

Ah Shu took the towel handed by the maid next to her, wiped the water vapor from the tea she had just made, and said warmly, "Just now Ji Ji has something to tell the king, I'll order someone to lead Ji."

After saying that, he gestured to the maid beside him.

However, before she finished speaking, Liu Yu had already walked around the folding screen placed in the room, walked over, and sat beside A Shu.

He had obviously heard what A Shu had just said: "What's the benefit of talking to a man like me about women's affairs? If Ji has something to do, talk to the queen."

His face was the same, still smiling, very pleasant, but what he said, there was an unequivocal rejection.

Jiang Chengjun was about to get up from the couch, when he heard the words, he froze suddenly.

Liu Xiu's words actually blocked everything she was going to say.

She twitched the corners of her mouth a little uncomfortably, and said, "What Your Majesty said makes sense."

The servant girl outside seemed to have discussed it, and suddenly raised her voice to report: "The carriage is ready outside the palace gate, and Captain Jiang has also passed."

This is an eviction order.

Jiang Chengjun looked at the two people on the couch who did not open their mouths to chase away guests, but only lowered their heads and drank tea as if nothing had happened. Their quiet faces were ugly for a moment.

She hid her hands in her sleeves tightly, stood up and said respectfully, "Thank you the king and queen today, and wait for me to go back and discuss with Zipei."

Having said that, he left.

There were only A Shu and Liu Yu in the room, and the maids consciously retreated to the door and waited.

Thinking of the situation just now, Ah Shu couldn't help but cover her lips and chuckle, with a sense of pleasure: "Just now Jiang Ji has something to tell her husband, she is the daughter of her mentor, how can her husband bear to make her face like this?"

Liu Xiu seemed to be dissatisfied with her attitude. He stretched out his hand and pulled her belt into his arms. He frowned and said, "What can she have to say to me? I shouldn't have cared about her marriage. It's all for Jiang Taichang's sake."

He wrapped her arms around her and turned her over to face him, as if he suddenly remembered something, brushed his knuckles over the tip of her nose, and said with a chuckle, "After careful consideration, when I was in Taixue, I edited for Wei, Much of the livelihood of copying books was taken over by Jiang Taichang for me."

When he spoke, there was a rare warmth and emotion in his eyes: "He probably knew that if he gave me money directly, I would never accept it, so he secretly helped me in that way."

Ah Shu listened softly, reached out and stroked his temples, thinking, that's why you want to help the Jiang family find a good place for them, right?

However, thinking of Jiang Chengjun's reaction just now, she was a little absent-minded. Both women, naturally understand each other's mind. Although Zheng Ling was good, Jiang Chengjun didn't like him.

In the end, it is everyone who came from the past generations, I am afraid that they are not very interested in Zheng Ling's family.

"Jiang Taichang is indeed a great scholar, and his husband is also very kind." She suddenly raised her eyes, "If Jiang Ji is unwilling to marry, will her husband marry Jiang Ji in return for Taichang's kindness?"

Hearing this, Liu Xiu frowned, took her hand loose, and asked inexplicably, "If she doesn't marry, I'll just look for someone else, why do you want me to marry?"

Ashu pursed her lips and said softly, "She can't give birth, so she happens to be the mother of Po Nu and Adai. Besides, having no heirs is unfilial. Ordinary people should not want such a woman. There will be all kinds of blame..."

"What about you?" Liu Xiu's brows tightened, pinching her chin with one hand, so that she couldn't dodge in the face of him, "If I marry her, or marry someone else, would you be willing?"

"I..." Ah Shu's black pupils shrank for a moment, and the body under his control gradually stiffened. For a moment, he couldn't figure out what he was thinking, and he didn't know how to answer.

Liu Xiu's face was tense for a moment, and he stared at her for a moment without blinking, holding his breath slightly to listen to her answer.

But after waiting for a long time, she didn't say the answer that he liked.

The light in his eyes gradually faded out, and he let go of her. He didn't open his eyes and coughed lightly, and said, "Forget it, it's still early today, so I'll go to the government office first."

Ah Shu naturally saw his disappointment at that moment, remembering that when Zheng Donglan came before, he had also asked such a question, and gradually understood what kind of response he was expecting.

But she couldn't do what he wanted.

It is true that there should be no woman in this world who would watch her husband marry someone else without any qualms, but she was different from Liu Yu.

She clings to him with sincerity and fear, and the more respected his status will be in the future, the more unreliable such attachment will be. Today, because he loves her, he expects her to say no. What will happen in the future? I'm afraid that today's "unwilling" sentence will be the evidence of accusing her of bad morals in the future.

However, after Jiang Chengjun and Jiang Yu returned, they never made up their minds for three or two days.

Jiang Yu had seen Zheng Ling as a person, and was deeply satisfied, but when she heard her sister talk about the children in his family, she was hesitant. He still didn't know about his sister's infertility, so he only clenched his fists and lightly beat the table and said, "I saw Zheng Langjun before, and thought that although his rank was a little lower, he was of upright character and good manners. It's not bad, who would have thought such a thing would still happen in the family. If A-jie gets married, although it is not a continuation of the string, she still wants to be a mother, which is really outrageous..."

He didn't say the rest - the king also looked down on him and his sister.

The resentment that had arisen from the issue of the official title resurfaced again, making him suffocated.

He said impulsively, "Elder sister, why don't you go and report this matter to the king."

Jiang Chengjun was leaning against the jade pillow on the couch in a trance. Hearing this, his face was calm, and he waved his hand lazily, signaling him to take it easy.

Zhao Ji's obscure words were still in her ears that day, and after thinking about it repeatedly, she finally believed that Zhao Ji should have known her secret. And Liu Xiu's words and deeds on that day taught her to wander.

After thinking about it for two days, she finally made up her mind, no matter whether he knew it or not, he didn't want to marry that surnamed Zheng, so she might as well give it a try.

She got up and went to the Boshan stove, adding some incense to it, looking at the wisps of blue smoke, faintly remembering the gilt incense burner in the boudoir of Chang'an Mansion.

"Adi, this is a major event of my life. In two days, I will go and talk to the king in person."

In the western city of Xindu, there is a very inconspicuous pastry shop just two blocks away from Na Chunluofang.

The shop was no more than half a zhang wide, and there was a simple low table at the door, with many different cakes stacked on the table. Although the shop is small, the business is exceptionally good. Every morning, servants of many large families come to buy cakes from this shop, and it is very lively with people coming and going.

There is no other reason, just because the cakes made by this shop are not only extra soft compared to other shops, but also have a unique sweet taste.

There are shops nearby who often come to spy on secretly, trying to find the secret method of this house, but no matter how you spy or try secretly, it is difficult to make that natural sweet taste. Longer.

Adai and Po Nu have also tasted the cakes from this shop, especially Po Nu, who is a little older, they can see the sweetness, and they love it so much that Xin Palace will send someone to buy some every few days.

Usually, the one who comes here to buy is a maid named Chun'er by Po Nu's side.

On this day, as usual, she came out early in the morning with several servants who were doing errands in the kitchen, and bought separately. In the Xin Palace, food and meat are all provided by themselves, and the servants just take the opportunity to come out, or buy some iron cavalry cooking utensils, or go to the liquor store to drink.

Chun'er was the only one who went straight to the pastry shop.

In addition to the cakes that Mr. Ponu loved to eat, a small and inconspicuous carriage was parked on the side of the road.

Chun'er paid the copper coins and carried the full food box. She didn't rush to go back, but looked around cautiously. Seeing that no one was paying attention, Fang Yi dodged and got on the carriage.

I don't know how long it took before she got out of the car with a pale face, carrying the food box, and walked back in a hesitant manner.

In the bedroom, the doors and windows were closed, and Ah Shu was sitting in the inner room, holding the secret letter sent by Xu Cheng, and she was a little lost for a while.

The maids next to her were all sent to the outside world, and only Queer was by her side. Seeing that her face was uncertain, she asked in a low voice, "Ashu, what did you say in the letter? But what did you find?"

Ah Shu first nodded, then shook her head.

It was mentioned in the letter that Xu Cheng ordered his servants to stay there for more than a month, and finally found that every few days, a servant of the Jiang family would go to the famous cake shop in the city. The maid goes with you.

Listening to the words of others, the maid was ordered to call Chun'er.

But although Chun'er and Jiang's servants had met each other, they seemed to be getting to know each other gradually, but they had never seen any overstepping, so they didn't have any doubts. Until the day before yesterday, the Xu family found out that Chun'er had boarded a carriage that drove out of the Jiang's house, and when she returned, her face was different.

A few words have already made Ah Shu's heart full of doubts, and gradually, the general outline of the matter is drawn in her mind.

However, there is currently no real evidence. If you take someone out of the blue, you will startle the snake, and it is not easy to make a statement.

She hesitated again and again, told Queer about the matter, and instructed: "There is no evidence yet. Do you remember Chuner next to Po Nu? Let Feng Er find a reliable person to keep an eye on her."

Queer was surprised, but she didn't understand much, so she took the order.

For the first one or two days, nothing unusual was seen. On the evening of the third day, when the two young masters were eating, Chun'er, who wanted to poison Adai secretly, was caught on the spot.
