Chapter 233 Bai Ying
"I'm sorry, I was in such a hurry that I didn't notice there was anyone here. Are you okay?" Zi Su came over to help Chu Liuzheng up. After seeing Liuzheng's face clearly, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.

Chu Liuzheng didn't expect to run into her here.

Wasn't this person imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment by the tyrant? When did he get out?

"It turns out to be Miss Liu Zheng." Zi Su reached out to help Chu Liu Zheng pat the hem of her clothes clean.

Chu Liuzheng asked doubtfully: "Do you recognize me?"

Zi Su nodded, thinking that she had seen how special the emperor treated this person on the night her master was punished, so she naturally recognized him.

"My name is Zi Su, and I serve in You Lan Ju. I didn't mean to offend you just now, please forgive me." Zi Su bowed to Chu Liu Zheng, "My master is not feeling well, I have to go to Wen Hua Palace to report, bye now."

Chu Liuzheng was surprised why Zi Su was so polite to her. He quickly returned the greeting and watched her leave.

In order to avoid bumping into people again, Chu Liuzheng didn't dare to be distracted or jog this time, and walked back to Yiran Garden attentively.

Moxiang and Yuzhu were on duty in Wenhua Hall, and there was no one in the room.

Chu Liuzheng put the bag on the table, not bothering to try on clothes. He poured water while opening the system, searching for information related to Youlanju.

[Zi Su was sent to the Ministry of Punishment by the tyrant himself. If she wants to get out, she must have the tyrant's order. I remember the tyrant said he didn't want to see Concubine Gao again. Why did he slap himself in the face so soon? ]

She pulled it down.

[Hmm... Here it is, let me take a look... Tsk, she didn't even slap me in the face. Gaopin's method is quite tortuous. She even set her sights on the Queen Mother.]

[Concubine Gao asked the Gao family to send in a jade Guanyin statue, and brought it to the Wanshou Palace to pay respects to the empress dowager. The jade Guanyin statue was exquisitely carved and lifelike. The empress dowager was delighted when she saw it and couldn't let it go.]

Seeing this, Chu Liuzheng could guess what would happen next.

[After receiving the gift, the Queen Mother will naturally show some concern for Concubine Gao. After all, Concubine Gao is pregnant with her grandson. If she shows concern, wouldn't Concubine Gao have a chance? ]

She glanced down.

[Sure enough, Gaopin took the opportunity to complain to the Queen Mother, saying that the baby in her belly was naughty, and she had no one to help her, so she couldn't eat or sleep well. In order to look more realistic, Gaopin put on some makeup before going out, making herself look as haggard as possible.]

[The Queen Mother was so angry when she heard that. She could not let anyone suffer but her grandson. Compared with her grandson, the little mistake Zi Su made was not important at all. She immediately sent someone to the tyrant.]

[During the New Year, the tyrant didn't want his mother to be upset, so he followed the Queen Mother's wishes and released Zi Su. It was also thanks to Concubine Gao who often sent people to the Ministry of Punishment that Zi Su didn't suffer too much in there. ]

After figuring out how Zi Su came out, Chu Liuzheng was about to shut down the system when she suddenly remembered that Zi Su had just mentioned that Gao Bin was a little bad. She became curious and continued to search.

[Hmm? Gaopin suddenly felt abdominal pain and bleeding... Frog fun! Is this a sign of miscarriage? ]

She tried to refresh quickly, but nothing worked for a long time.

[Why do I suddenly have a stomachache? Did I eat something wrong? ]

Chu Liuzheng searched in the system for a long time.

[No one added anything to Gaopin's food. Besides, Gaopin herself is so careful and cautious. She doesn't dare to be careless about what she eats, drinks, and wears. Who can harm her... Wait, it's not that she ate something wrong, she was frightened! ]

[She said that there was always a white shadow floating around in her dreams, and she couldn't sleep well at night. Today, Gaopin woke up from her nap and opened her eyes. She was startled to see the white gauze hanging on the head of the bed. Then she suddenly had abdominal pain and bleeding from her lower body. ]

[This pregnant woman is restless and suddenly frightened. These symptoms may lead to miscarriage, right?]

Chu Liuzheng only had a vague understanding of all this. Seeing that Gao Pin's current situation had not been updated yet, he dug up this gossip and pondered over Bai Ying's matter while browsing the system.

Qiao Ru had seen a white shadow, she had seen a white shadow, Gao Bin had dreamed of a white shadow.

What on earth is this white shadow?
【Why not? 】

Chu Liuzheng found it strange, but there was nothing she could do since she was not in the system. After all, she still hadn't figured out the system's criteria for collecting gossip.

After flipping through the system for a while, she still couldn't find any useful information. Chu Liuzheng closed the system and went to try on new clothes. Since entering the palace, she never made red clothes, no matter if it was water red, madder red, pomegranate red, peach red, silver red, Wei red, Yafei, Sumei... She would not touch anything that had anything to do with red.

She doesn't touch bright colors.

Chu Liuzheng was not used to wearing a light red dress after a long time, but he was very happy.

She stood in front of the dressing table and looked at herself in the mirror. She had taken good care of herself these days, and her complexion was already fair and rosy. Now, with the bright red dress, she looked even better.

A pair of almond-shaped eyes are as bright as water, revealing a spirit of high spirit.

Chu Liuzheng turned around in front of the mirror with a smile and found that the clothes were a little big. He thought that his mother might not know her current size and deliberately made them bigger so that she would have enough space to wear them.

After all, if clothes are too big, they can be altered to be smaller, but if they are too small, they cannot be worn.

She reached for the two pairs of embroidered shoes in her bag and wanted to try them on together. As soon as she put her feet in, she found something inside the shoes.

She reached into the toe of her shoe and pulled out a silver ingot weighing about five taels.

Chu Liuzheng blinked, rummaged through the remaining three shoes, and took out another small gold ingot.

That's ten taels of silver.

She didn't have time to try on the shoes and hurried to open the letter from home, but she poured out five taels of silver from the envelope.

The contents of the first two pages of the letter were similar to the previous ones, mainly reporting safety and saying that everything was fine at home. It was obviously the eldest brother's handwriting, but the handwriting on the third page was more childish, and it was written by Chu Yuxin.

"Sister, His Majesty rewarded me with 100 taels, and my mother left me 10 taels. I secretly put it in your embroidered shoes, and my father, mother, and elder brother didn't know. Remember to buy some meat. My mother stewed the meat yesterday, and it's so delicious!"

Chu Liuzheng's eyes curved when he saw three more lines of small words at the end.

"I know—brother."

"I know that, too—Mother."

"I'm the last one to know—Dad."

The three lines of words were neatly written, the same as the handwriting on the previous two pieces of letter paper, obviously written by Chu Shangming.

Chu Liuzheng couldn't help but chuckle and read the short letter over and over again. As he read, his eyes gradually turned red.

She pursed her lips, suppressed the thoughts churning in her heart, lowered her head, carefully folded the letter, put it back into the envelope, and locked it in the cabinet.

There are still seven years left, and it will pass quickly.

Comforting himself in this way, Chu Liuzheng rested his forehead against the cabinet door, closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, turned around, picked up the embroidered shoes and tried them on.

The small one is a bit tight, the large one is just right.

She stared at the shoes on her feet with a smile, thinking that her mother's craftsmanship was still so good.

The sky outside the window was getting darker and darker. Under the silvery moonlight, the shadows of the trees were mottled and swaying in the wind.

A letter was quietly presented to the desk.

The person at the window said, "Bring it here."

The servant handed over the letter respectfully.

A pale and thin hand opened the envelope, read the letter, and threw it into the brazier beside him.

"Pack your luggage and leave for Beijing in two days."

"only."
