255, and away?
Chu Ling sat calmly in the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion for tea. Xiao Yan'er, who was sitting beside her, moved without a moment of peace, as if someone had nailed it in the chair under her. Chu Ling said helplessly: "Yan'er, sit well."
Xiao Yan'er glanced at Chu Ling with grievance. She didn't know how Sister A Ling could be so calm. She wanted to rush in and rescue Mrs. Zhuo from this fire pit. What if Mrs. Zhuo was abused by those bad guys, what if they were late?
Chu Ling said: "Don't worry, if something happens to Mrs. Zhuo, the Shangguan family can't get it." Even if Mrs. Zhuo dies, if the Shangguan family doesn't look good, there will be trouble. What's more, Chu Ling doesn't think that Shangguan Chengyi can kill his wife because of this.
Xiao Yan'er sighed and looked at Chu Ling with some hesitation. Chu Ling smiled at her comfortably, "Don't worry, I'm there." Xiao Yan'er's eyes were full of trust and she nodded heavily, "Yes."
Shangguan Chengyi came in from outside, with a sincere and enthusiastic smile on his face, as if he had no idea why His Royal Highness came.
"I am really shining with the princess here." Shangguan Chengyi smiled. Chu Ling put down the teacup, stood up and smiled, "You are polite, Lord Shangguan, come to visit you with a liberty. If you have any trouble, I hope Lord Shangguan will forgive you."
Shangguan Chengyi smiled and said, "It is my honor to be here. I don't know what the princess is here today? Why not sit down and talk?" Chu Ling sat down again as he said, "Mr. Shangguan, I will not hide it from the previous Japanese palace. He really benefited a lot. It happened that there were some small questions to ask Mrs. Shangguan, so he took the liberty to visit and asked Mrs. Shangguan for forgiveness."
Shangguan Chengyi still had a smile on his face, but there was a little more alert and scrutiny when he looked at Chu Ling's eyes. Chu Ling was obviously not afraid of him, and waited for his answer with a smile. After a while, he heard Shangguan Chengyi frown slightly and said, "It's really not to hide it. Zhuo Jing was a little uncomfortable in the past two days, I'm afraid he can't solve the princess's confusion. If the princess has any questions, why not ask the wife of Xiangguo Duke? The wife of Xiangguo Duke is noble and is the princess's aunt, which is just right."
Chu Ling smiled and said, "Isn't this afraid that my aunt will love me, my niece, and I can't bear to say anything even if I have something to do? It turns out that Mrs. Shangguan is sick, that's a coincidence. But since I'm here, let's go and see the wife. Lord Shangguan don't worry, I know the right way. I only look at the wife's health, and I will never let the wife be tired."
Shangguan Chengyi frowned, but he didn't expect that the princess would be so difficult. He came to decline in person. Generally, people with a little wink should have stood up and said goodbye at this time. This princess actually hit the snake and rode on it!
Just looking at Chu Ling's serious look, she obviously would not give up. Shangguan Chengyi sighed and said, "The princess is the blessing of Zhu Jing. Since that's the case, please, princess." Chu Ling's smile on her face became deeper, and she stood up and said, "Thank you, Lord Shangguan."
"Don't dare."
Shangguan Chengyi was not actually afraid that Chu Ling would see Zhuo. He believed that Zhuo would not say anything in front of the princess. Not to mention that Zhuo's family had no one, and she had no place to go after leaving Shangguan's family. Even for the sake of her two sons and grandson, she would not say anything that was unfavorable to the Shangguan family. For so many years, Shangguan Chengyi was not dissatisfied with this wife, but his mother always disliked Zhuo. It was useless to persuade him a few times. As a son, he naturally had to stand on his side. After all, his mother raised him with great difficulty. If he had no mother, how could Shangguan Chengyi be today?
However, he really didn't want Chu Ling to see Zhuo. Shangguan Chengyi always felt that this Shenyou Princess was an unstable factor. He didn't know when he would do something. It would be better for the Shangguan family to contact her less.
Shangguan Chengyi personally led the way, and the group soon arrived at Zhuo's yard. Standing in the yard, Xiao Yan'er looked around and said with disgust: "Is this Mrs. Zhuo's yard? Didn't she say she is the Prime Minister's wife? Isn't the Prime Minister a high-ranking official?"
This made Shangguan Chengyi look a little bad, but he couldn't say anything to refute. The courtyard where Zhuo lived was indeed not very much like a place where the Prime Minister's wife could live. It wasn't that bad, but it was definitely not good. It would have been fine if the entire Prime Minister's Mansion had a simple and simple style, but Mrs. Shangguan liked to be lively and gorgeous. This courtyard was really deserted and out of place in the entire Prime Minister's Mansion. It didn't look like the place where the wife lived, but it seemed like the place where the unvalued guests lived.
Chu Ling glanced at Shangguan Chengyi with an awkward look and said lightly: "Yan'er."
Xiao Yan'er hid beside Chu Ling and grimaced at Shangguan Chengyi, but she no longer expressed any opinions on the face.
Two girls stood outside Zhuo's dormitory. When they saw three people coming, they hurried forward to salute, "Master."
Shangguan Chengyi said: "Young Master is inside?"
The girl nodded and said, "The second young master is here to serve the wife."
Shangguan Chengyi said: "Open the door."
Zhuo's room was not small, but the doors and windows were tightly closed, which made it look a little dark. When the three of them entered, Shangguan Yunru, the second son of Shangguan family, was getting up and going outside. When they saw Shangguan Chengyi coming in, they hurriedly bowed and bowed, "I have seen... princess, and father." Shangguan Yunru, as the legitimate son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, naturally had seen Princess Shenyou.
Shangguan Chengyi asked, "Princess comes to see your mother, how is your mother?"
Shangguan Yunrudao: "My mother just took medicine and went to bed."
Chu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at the medicine bowl on the cabinet next to the bedside. This was interesting. Mrs. Shangguan had just taken the medicine and went to bed. Naturally, she, the visitor, couldn't bother a sleeping patient.
Chu Ling smiled and said, "That's a coincidence that I came..."
"Girl, what are you doing?!" Shangguan Chengyi's face suddenly changed and he said in a deep voice. It turned out that Xiao Yan'er had already touched the edge of Zhuo's bed while they were talking. Xiao Yan'er had a sweet smile and turned around and said, "Young Master Shangguan, isn't your mother awake?"
Shangguan Yunru looked back and saw Zhuo on the bed looking at them with his eyes open, and his face froze. Chu Ling just pretended not to see his expression and walked over with a smile and said, "It seems that Yan'er is too clumsy and wakes up Mrs. Shangguan."
Xiao Yan'er glared at Shangguan Yunru with her cheeks and bulged her, but she did not wake up Mrs. Zhuo!
Chu Ling walked to the bed and sat down, smiled at Zhuo and said, "Madam Shangguan, I heard that you are not feeling well, are you seriously injured?"
Zhuo shook his head and said, "The princess is here, my wife... I can't meet you from afar. Looking back at the princess for forgiveness." As he said that, he struggled to sit up. Xiao Yan'er next to him hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and Chu Ling also reached out to support her and said, "If you are unwell, just lie down."
Zhuo shook his head and said, "It's just a minor problem that makes the princess laugh. Master, Ru'er, the princess must have something to say to me, so you can go and help first." If Chu Ling said this, Shangguan Chengyi might have to find some excuses to refuse. But since Zhuo said it himself, Shangguan Chengyi couldn't say anything in front of Chu Ling even if he was unwilling. He had to look at Zhuo deeply and turn and walk out with Shangguan Yunru.
Zhuo's complexion was really bad. He sat on the bed against the pillow and looked haggard and looked dull. Because he had no makeup on, he was even more haggard and older than what he saw in the palace last time. Zhuo looked at Chu Ling and smiled helplessly, "Let the princess laugh."
Chu Ling shook her head and said, "I have heard Mi'er talk about this matter."
Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It turned out to be Mi'er...she is a good child."
Chu Ling looked at her, "What are the plans for her own wife? Should she live like this for the rest of her life? I heard from Mier that her wife wants to go to Shufa to become a monk? I am very forgiving that the situation of the above-mentioned official family will not allow her to make such a decision."
Zhuo looked sad, "I was carefree in my life when I was a teenager. My father was afraid that I would be wronged by marrying into a high school, so he chose such a marriage for me. My mother always taught me not to look down on my mother-in-law just because of her good background, which made my husband's family restless. I did it one by one, but in the end...even my own son..."
Chu Ling listened silently and did not interrupt.
"I was taken by the old lady to raise my children as soon as I gave birth to a child. I could only look at the children every day when I greeted me. Later, I saw that the child was spoiled by the old lady, so I had to tell the master. The master valued the legitimate son and brought the child to the front yard for upbringing. But the old lady felt that I wanted to alienate their grandparents and grandchildren and took my second son away. Over the years..."
Zhuo did not shed tears when he said this, and his expression seemed to be no longer as sad.
Chu Ling sighed lightly and said, "What do you plan to do?" Zhuo's life is indeed a tragedy. Mrs. Shangguan and Shangguan Chengyi are naturally the biggest murderers, but this cannot be separated from Zhuo's weakness and concessions. At least, when he was still in Shangjing for more than ten years, even if he was a little tough, he would not let Mrs. Shangguan take both sons away. As a result, both sons he raised were not concerned about their biological mothers.
Zhuo is very pitiful, but if she still wants to give in and out of weakness, Chu Ling has nothing to say. The affairs of husband and wife family are the most difficult and difficult to manage. Maybe she has a tough attitude to take charge of Zhuo, but when she turns around, she will be resentful.
Zhuo obviously understood this truth. When she closed her eyes and opened it, she no longer had any sadness or weakness in her eyes. She just looked at Chu Ling calmly and said, "I want to leave the Shangguan family and ask the princess to help me."
Chu Ling curled his lips slightly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Why should I help you? How do you plan to leave the Shangguan family?"
Zhuo said: "I want to divorce Shangguan Chengyi. Although my dowry has been used a lot over the years, there are still some left, which is enough for my future life. My father was the Minister of Revenue and the Zhuo family was also a scholarly family. I have read a lot of books since I was a child. If the princess doesn't bother me, what can I do to serve the princess? Just give me instructions."
Chu Ling looked at her calmly and said, "Shangguan Chengyi is the prime minister of the dynasty, with a high position and a powerful position. Being with him... Have you really considered it? Don't forget that you still have two children, and you have grandchildren. Once your affairs get big, they will be afraid that they will not look good on their faces. At that time, the lady will regret it."
Zhuo smiled faintly and said, "Princess, look at my sons and daughters-in-law, does it matter if my mother is a life or death? Oh, they are concerned. They are worried that something will happen to me and will embarrass the Shangguan family. Such a son... I have never raised them, just."
After a long time of silence in the room, Xiao Yan'er looked at Chu Ling anxiously. She wanted to persuade Chu Ling to agree quickly, but she knew that this matter was of great importance, so she had to force herself to endure it. She held her braid and rubbed her braids.
After a long time, I heard Chu Ling say, "Since the wife has decided, I can promise my wife. After this matter, I hope my wife will serve me for five years. How about it?"
"Thank you, Princess." Zhuo sat on the bed and couldn't stand up, so he had to support his hands on the bed and solemnly bow to Chu Ling three times. In fact, she knew that it was a very loss-making business for the princess to take her in at this time. Not to mention how much she could do for the princess, it would be more than worth the impact of the princess' intervention on her reputation. But for her, the past five years not only gave her the princess' kindness, but also gave her a place to settle down with a woman who had just left alone.
Zhuo's eyes were a little red, and her relatives ignored her. A princess who had only met one person had a helping hand to her. Zhuo didn't know how much Princess Shenyou helped her because she was pity for her and how many were because of something else, but she really didn't want to spend the second half of her life just like that. After wasting so many years, she didn't have much time to endure it anymore. She didn't want to bet whether Mrs. Shangguan would die before her, and what's the point even if she won the bet?
Chu Ling nodded and said, "Okay, since the lady has decided, I will prepare when I go back. I will let someone notify the lady of what to do. In the past few days, the lady can still regret it."
Zhuo nodded, not in a hurry to express his determination, but his eyes were filled with determination.
Chu Ling stood up and asked Xiao Yan'er, "How is Mrs. Zhuo's body?"
Xiao Yan'er said angrily: "It's not good. If what Mrs. Zhuo wants to do later is very troublesome, it's best to slow down for a few days. I'll provide Mrs. Zhuo with some health care medicine."
Chu Ling nodded, turned his head and smiled at Mrs. Zhuo, "Let me go back and ask me to send the medicine, Mrs. Zhuo will take care of her illness first. As for the girl Mi'er, I will stay with me first. What is the inconvenience here?"
He shook his head and said, "Thank you for your concern, I have nothing here. Since Mi'er is out, don't let her come back."
Chu Ling said: "It's good that my wife knows it. Since that's the case, I'll say goodbye first."
"Send the princess." Zhuo Shi said.

I got a tooth removed in the morning, and after the anesthetic was gone, my whole body was in a bad state~o(>_<)o~
ps: Someone thinks that Mrs. Lingchu is too slow for this matter. Uh... maybe a little bit, but a princess who just came back picked up her whip and rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion to manage other people's private affairs may be a bit difficult. I'm really sorry
