Chapter 996 Pretending to be sick
He suspected that Gao Roy was not Gao Roy, maybe she was, it was just a false identity she fabricated.
If there was Gao Royi in Jiangnan, then he doubted whether the woman in the house was really Gao Royi?
Otherwise, how could a man who was born into a pampered girl from a small family be so calm, proud, and sometimes delicate, pitiful, and aggrieved to the point of pity.
He has always been good at recognizing people, and he has long noticed that Gao Royi's delicate look is just an act, and she is a proud woman at heart.
But at that time, he thought that Gao Roy was pretending to be like that because he felt pity for her, but now that he thinks about it, it's probably not the reason.
Gao Royi deliberately approached him, and her purpose was definitely not pure.
Is it to force the first wife to leave and the concubine to be promoted?
So, after he divorced his cousin, did Gao Roy try his best to please his father and make her the crown princess?
Wrong, still wrong...
Rong San's eyebrows knitted, and he sat alone in the study, thinking hard all morning, but couldn't come up with a clue.
In the afternoon, Prince Rong came back.
Not long after he came back, the Heavenly Master who was in retreat at Huguo Temple suddenly counted his fingers and turned pale with shock, "No, someone is forcibly changing the destiny of Dasheng Kingdom."
We must know that whether a country is prosperous or troubled depends on the fate of the country.
Only when the national destiny is constant can the country prosper, the country be peaceful and the people are safe, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. However, once the national destiny is damaged, the country will suffer constant disasters.
Thinking of this, the presiding heavenly master stopped his work and left the seclusion early.
After the Heavenly Master had eaten, he got into the carriage and entered the capital.
……
Xia Zihan has been busy welcoming guests these past few days, and has no extra mood to inquire about Prince Rong's mansion.
Ever since he learned that Concubine Rong Shizi was crazy and was divorced by Rong San, Xia Zihan devoted himself to the funeral of Mrs. Chu, and did not know that Gao Royi was already the concubine of Rong San.
"Princess, the princess sent someone to ask the princess to go to the side hall. There are no longer enough seats for so many people. The princess wants to divide some of the guests into the flower room."
The little maid came in to report.
Xia Zihan greeted the female relatives in the mourning hall. When he heard this, he took all the female relatives to the greenhouse and informed the maids to get boiled water quickly.
When visiting someone's home to pay homage to a deceased person, you must drink a glass of boiled water. This is an old rule and tradition.
"Mother." Xia Zihan called Mrs. Xia Er, "There are many people here. Please help to receive them, and I will go to the mourning hall."
It didn't work if there was no one to greet the guests in the mourning hall. Prince Anjun's palace only had two people, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. One would accompany the guests in the side hall, and the other would greet the guests in the mourning hall. The arrangement was just right.
But there is no one taking care of the flower room.
Sisters Chu Jingxiu and Chu Jinglan are qualified to receive guests here, but she and Mrs. Zhuo don't trust their sisters, so they don't let them get involved in receiving guests.
It just so happened that her stepmother was among the visitors in the greenhouse. Mrs. Xia Er was an upright person and had a good way of handling people and entertaining guests. Xia Zihan liked her very much, so he asked her to help.
Mrs. Xia Er agreed wholeheartedly, "Go and do your work, leave this place to me." Every time in front of outsiders, Chu Yu would give her face and call her mother.
She cherished the word "mother" very much, and she always responded to Chu Yu's requests.
"Then thank you mother." Xia Zihan thanked her in a low voice and went to the mourning hall.
When I first arrived at the mourning hall, I heard the maid report, "Princess, Princess Rong is here." "Didn't you divorce? Why..."
Before Xia Zihan could ask, Gao Royi walked in.
When Gao Royi saw Xia Zihan, a trace of gloom flashed deep in her eyes. She lowered her eyes, walked forward, lit three incense sticks for Mrs. Chu, and took a stack of paper to burn in the earthen basin. .
"What's going on?" Xia Zihan took advantage of Gao Royi to burn incense and kowtow, and quietly asked Chu Cong beside him.
Chu Cong said, "A few days ago, Prince Rong suddenly promoted Gao Rouyi as Princess Rong, and gave her all the housework in Prince Rong's mansion. Instead, he pushed Princess Rong aside. It is said that Princess Rong is very ill and only Rong Wu is waiting for her.”
"Hey, you didn't get married and you did this to the mistress of Prince Rong's palace?" Xia Zihan felt incredible.
Chu Cong said, "There was no big sedan chair to marry, no matchmaker, and no court meeting, so what the couple did was unclear. People outside were spreading rumors that this time, I don't know when. Prince Rong will divorce his wife.”
Having already divorced one wife and one concubine, Rong San's backyard has become a joke in the capital.
Some people even put this matter on the gambling table, betting on when he would divorce his wife again.
The master and servant were talking in low voices, Gao Royi had already stood up, and Xia Zihan hurriedly welcomed her to the side hall.
Gao Royi has actually met Xia Zihan, but Xia Zihan has not met Gao Royi.
On Wuzhi Peak, after all the Miao people were killed by Da Sheng's people overnight, Eva stood on the outside, watching her people die in front of her from a distance, and she was powerless to save them.
At that time, Eva saw Xia Zihan.
Seeing this at this moment, Eva's heart was full of hatred for Xia Zihan, because she was also one of the murderers of the Miao people.
The leader of the murderer is her husband.
Eva came to the door specially today, intending to quietly destroy the feng shui of Prince Anjun's mansion. Unexpectedly, before she opened her mouth, Xia Zihan asked her to go to the side hall.
How could Eva just let it go?
She held her stomach and said, "Princess Chuyu, my stomach hurts, is there anything..."
"Why do you have a stomachache? Then sit down quickly and I'll take your pulse." Xia Zihan was not stupid.
After knowing that the other party was Gao Roy, who had been pretending to be a ghost, she became wary of Gao Roy. At the same time, she also decided to never let Gao Roy out of her sight, lest she Do something bad to Prince Anjun’s mansion.
Therefore, when she saw Gao Royi having a stomachache, whether it was real or fake, she immediately decided to check her pulse herself.
You know, except for her master, her medical skills are unmatched by any doctor in the capital. It is Gao Roy's honor to have the honor of taking her pulse.
But in Gao Royi's eyes, this honor made her nervous, angry, and annoyed.
She secretly performed a magic trick to stir up the aura in her body, and then stretched out her wrist to feel Xia Zihan's pulse.
After Xia Zihan checked her pulse, she frowned.
"Concubine Rong Shi, your body is very weak. It seems that it is not due to a bad stomach."
