Chapter 77 A wise plan

Xu Junze looked at Lin Shuran's gentle and beautiful eyes. He always felt that she had been protected too well by the Lin family before. He was afraid that she didn't know the sinister nature of people's hearts. But at the same time, he also knew very well that she was a very smart girl who could tell everything.

Easily allow yourself to be plotted against.

"Don't you think it's unusual for the little princess of the Qing Dynasty to appear in a noisy place like Penglai Restaurant?" Xu Junze looked at Lin Shuran thoughtfully and said.

Unusual? Lin Shuran thought about it and realized that it was a bit unusual. How could a noble lady lead a maid to a restaurant alone? Moreover, according to Xu Mingchen, the little princess seemed to have been drugged at that time.

"Tell me quickly, what's going on?" Lin Shuran didn't want Xu Junze to continue to lie, and urged him to tell everything he knew.

Seeing her anxious look, Xu Junze chuckled helplessly and told her that according to Princess Xiqing of the Qing Palace, Princess Kerou of the Prince Ling Palace asked her to meet her at Penglai Restaurant, and she drank the maid.

After pouring a cup of tea, she passed out. When she woke up, she became the target of everyone watching. She had no idea what had happened.

The eldest maid beside her sent away the other maids and the mother-in-law who were following her. Afterwards, the eldest maid also disappeared.

Gao Zhan was at the Penglai Restaurant at the time. Somehow he learned that Princess Xiqing was next door, so he drugged Lei Yan and Xu Mingchen's wine jars, knocked out the secret guards following Xu Mingchen, and deliberately attracted

The guests in the restaurant saw Xu Mingchen and Princess Xiqing sleeping on the same bed.

"Gao Zhan knows very well that Prince Qing will never let his daughter marry Brother Chen. He may even get angry and kill Brother Chen directly." Xu Junze thought that maybe it was because of this that Gao Zhan

Only then did he deliberately send Xu Mingchen into the room where Princess Xiqing was.

"Why?" Lin Shuran was even more puzzled. Her brother Chen was from a well-known family and the son of a general. Marrying a princess was considered a bit high-profile in the eyes of outsiders, but the two families were considered well-matched, right?

"Because the eldest daughter of the Qing prince was also plotted in this way, and she died on the day of her wedding. The person who plotted against her was a member of the Chen family in Dongling. Not many people in the capital knew that Brother Chen was from the Chen family.

Prince Qing is one of them, so he will never agree to this marriage." Xu Junze knows Prince Qing well, and if Princess Qing knew that Xu Mingchen was from the Chen family in Dongling, she would not rush Lin Shuran

Called.

It was really being plotted together, and it involved Prince Ling's Mansion and the Princess' Mansion, and everything was about to turn into chaos. But after all, this matter involved either relatives of the emperor or powerful officials, and the matter was suppressed.

, everyone tacitly agreed not to mention it again.

At this time, news suddenly spread in the palace that Concubine Su had passed away. According to the rules of the Jin Dynasty, a concubine of Concubine Su's level would be held in state mourning after her death, and all officials and wives would have to go to the palace to observe the mourning for three days.

Three days later, Lin Shuran came back from the palace with a haggard and tired face. She didn't expect that the mourning rules in the ancient palace were so strict. She couldn't eat well or sleep well. She had to kneel for several hours. Fortunately, the Queen Mother and Concubine Yun asked Gong E to do it.

She put something under her knees, otherwise her knees would be swollen.

Back home, Lin Shuran stayed in the room all day and night. Xu Mingchen and the others were worried about her health and wanted to go in to pay her respects. However, Chunxi got Lin Shuran's order. No one could go in and disturb her without her permission.

Even when Xu Junze came back, he had to inform her before he could go in.

"Brother, mother, is this what happened?" Xu Minghao scratched his head anxiously. He also wanted to ask Lin Shuran if he could go out now.

"I don't know either!" Xu Mingchen shook his head in a depressed mood. Maybe Lin Shuran was still angry with him and didn't want to see him?!

In the room, Lin Shuran held her chin in one hand, sitting on the chair with concentration, staring at the eight words on the table that she had thought about for a long time before writing: "Knowing will lead to happiness, and you will not fall into a bad realm!"

This was the decision she made after kneeling in the mourning hall for three days and three nights, and then returned home. She wanted to close the door and train her stepsons well. They must know what others know, and they must know what others cannot.

Study, don’t overwhelm yourself with too many skills, and you must always learn to cope with crises when they come.

The first phase of her training camp plan is to enlighten these ancient children, and the most important step in enlightening them is naturally to read more with the right teacher.

It wasn't that she was arrogant. Looking at the entire Jin Dynasty, no one was better than her in terms of possessing advanced knowledge and skills and understanding of education methods that kept pace with the times, so she decided to personally educate Xu Mingchen and the others.

Finally, the door was opened from the inside with a "squeak". Looking at Xu Mingchen and Xu Minghao standing outside the door, Lin Shuran smiled at them. This smile revealed a bit of mystery and determination, which made Xu Mingchen, Xu Mingchen and the others go back.

I couldn't help but feel nervous, as if something big was going to happen.

Before they could react, Lin Shuran called the housekeepers Xu An and Nanny Zhang, and asked them to bring the servants in the house to clear out an empty courtyard. The room should be designed according to her requirements, and Chunxi was also asked to go there.

Find a carpenter to customize some bookcases, and also send someone out to buy more books. There is no limit to the types of books, the more the better.

"Brother, what's irritating my mother? I heard from Sister Chunxi that my mother wants to build a separate courtyard for books in our house. Then we won't be able to read all the books in the future. It's terrible, I'm miserable!

"Xu Minghao looked up to the sky and sighed, his little head was knotted with worry, as if there were countless books hitting him in front of him. Just thinking about it made him dizzy, and he really wanted to run away now.

Xu Mingchen looked silently in the direction of Lin Shuran's yard. He could vaguely detect Lin Shuran's intentions. This time he was plotted against, not only because he was young and careless, but also because he was immature and could not detect the hidden dangers around him. Lin Shuran

This is because he and his brothers want to read more books and become smarter, so that they will not be plotted against by others.

Therefore, he secretly made up his mind that he must study harder from now on and never let Lin Shuran and Xu Junze worry about him anymore.

Hearing that Lin Shuran was planning to build a courtyard for books at home, Xu Junze let her do what she wanted. Not to mention that she was the mistress of the General's Mansion, he would support her for her obvious purpose.

"Come here, go find some more books and send them to your wife!" Since he had to decide to support what Lin Shuran was doing, of course Xu Junze had to take practical actions and make his wife happy.
