The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy
Chapter 121 Love Brain Lord
On the second day after her marriage, when Qin Miaoxi woke up, she saw only faint light outside. When she got up and opened the window, she saw the sun hanging high in the sky.
"Purple smoke!"
Zi Yan heard the noise and hurried in with hot water to serve, "Miss, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"What time is it now?"
Zi Yan replied, "Si time."
Upon hearing this, Qin Miaoxi immediately grabbed some clothes from the rack and hurriedly put them on, complaining, "What's wrong with this curtain? I can't see any light outside. You too, why didn't you call me earlier?"
Zi Yan's face was full of confusion. "Miss, you don't need to greet the elders. Why get up so early? Besides, my uncle also told you to sleep a little longer, so I won't disturb you."
Qin Miaoxi looked up at the sky in silence, wondering what was wrong with these two people. Were they confused or had they forgotten? She and Lu Qingchen were married by the emperor, so she had to go to the palace to thank him for his grace. How could she delay?
Zi Yan said without hesitation: "Do we still have to thank the Emperor?"
Then he grumbled in dissatisfaction, "Didn't the young marquis request the imperial decree granting the marriage? I heard he even gave away a mountain of gold for free. And since it wasn't the Emperor's initiative, is there any need to thank him for it?"
Qin Miaoxi: "..." This girl is really bold and presumptuous.
She took a deep breath and had to quickly order, "Go and have the young marquis dress formally, and I will go to the palace with him.
Zi Yan nodded continuously, but the moment she opened the door, she saw Lu Qingchen walking towards her in smart clothes and a respectable appearance.
"But is the lady awake?"
Zi Yan was about to nod in response when Qin Miaoxi came out disheveled, "You..."
As soon as she uttered a word, her eyes fell on Lu Qingchen's court robes, and she asked in surprise, "Did you go to the morning court?"
This isn't right! Doesn't he need to attend court?
"No, I went to the palace to thank the emperor for granting me the marriage."
"You went there by yourself?" Qin Miaoxi was immediately furious. He knew about this but didn't call her. Was he trying to get attention?
Lu Qingchen hurriedly explained, "I saw that you were overworked yesterday, so I wanted to let you rest a little longer. Besides, I've already reported to the Emperor that it was Lu Yuande and his men who caused such a scene in the Marquis' Mansion yesterday that they nearly ruined the Emperor's intention to grant you a marriage. As a result, you were so angry that you fainted, and you haven't woken up yet."
"You are deceiving the emperor!"
"Don't talk nonsense. Many doctors came to examine you this morning, and they can all testify that you are indeed ill in bed."
He blinked his big eyes, as if expecting Qin Miaoxi to praise him.
However, Qin Miaoxi had a splitting headache and said "yes" three times in a row, "You are putting me in an unkind and unjust situation! Lu Yuande is your father after all. I am a new bride, and I am sick because of my husband's relatives. How can this be disgraceful?"
Lu Qingchen suddenly realized, "You're talking about this! Don't worry, I've already spread the news that they were greedy and tried to snatch your dowry, which is why you fell ill out of anger."
Hearing him say this, Qin Miaoxi became even angrier, "Do you think outsiders will believe you?"
"Why wouldn't you believe it? They already have a criminal record."
Qin Miaoxi: "..."
Don't say it, it's true. Lu Yuande had previously seized the dowry of Lu Qingchen's mother, Jiang. If Lu Qingchen hadn't presented the dowry to the emperor, it would probably still be squandered by them now!
She couldn't help but take a deep breath, and finally praised him under his expectant gaze: "You did a good job, don't do it next time."
Lu Qingchen didn't take it seriously, but said happily: "Okay, since you're up, let's have breakfast first!"
Qin Miaoxi said with a puzzled look: "Breakfast? It's almost lunch now!"
"Oh! It's all the same, all the same."
The two of them went to the dining room while playing around. From a distance, Qin Miaoxi could be heard asking, "What's going on with the curtain in my room?"
"I was afraid that someone would make trouble in the bridal chamber at night and peek in, so I used a lot of cloth to sew curtains. This not only blocks the light so that people outside can't see anything, but also reduces the sound."
"If you don't like it, I'll find someone else to replace it."
"No, this is fine. Prepare some more and I'll put them in the stable to help protect the bodies."
"Hehe! I know, I've prepared it for you a long time ago."
"Not bad, not bad. This young man is teachable."
Zi Yan and Wen Zhu stood behind them and looked at each other, especially Wen Zhu, who couldn't bear to look at his master's cheap look.
On the gorgeous table, more than a dozen plates of exquisite side dishes and pastries were placed in an orderly manner. The aroma of the rich and fresh porridge was lingering, making people's appetites whetted.
Lu Qingchen's eyebrows danced with joy as he introduced the dishes non-stop: "The chefs at the Marquis' Mansion are truly exceptional at making cakes and pasta. You must try them more often."
In the blink of an eye, the plates in front of Qin Miaoxi had piled up into a small mountain, filled with all kinds of food.
Qin Miaoxi was already feeling annoyed by Zi Yan's chattering beside her, and now with Lu Qingchen joining the mix, she felt like her ears were no longer at peace.
She closed her eyes lightly, took a deep breath, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Lu Qingchen's flattering look. She couldn't help but burst out laughing, and secretly comforted herself in her heart: This is better than facing a stranger.
After the meal, Lu Qingchen immediately called the housekeeper and then solemnly handed a key to Qin Miaoxi.
His expression was firm, and he promised earnestly, "Since you are the Marquis's wife, the power of managing the Marquis's mansion will naturally be handed over to you. Here are the keys to the treasury; use them as you wish."
Qin Miaoxi raised her eyebrows slightly and opened her red lips slightly: "Any way you want to use it is fine."
I wondered to myself, is he really not afraid that I will squander the entire fortune of the Marquis' Mansion?
Lu Qingchen nodded without hesitation, "Of course, use them as you please. The number of servants in the mansion is limited. If you feel you are short of manpower, you can go to the pawnshop to purchase more."
Qin Miaoxi held the key in her hand, feeling like she was holding a hot potato. Just as she was about to return it, Lu Qingchen anxiously dragged her out the door.
"Come with me, I have a surprise for you!"
Qin Miaoxi was full of doubts and subconsciously followed Lu Qingchen's footsteps. In a blink of an eye, he led her to an exquisite and unique courtyard.
This place is quite a distance away from their new house. The surroundings are quiet and peaceful, with only the breeze blowing and the rustling of bamboo leaves.
As she stepped into the courtyard, a familiar and rich herbal fragrance hit her nose.
Qin Miaoxi couldn't help but startled slightly. She looked up at Lu Qingchen in astonishment, her eyes filled with surprise and confusion, "What is this?"
Lu Qingchen raised the corners of his lips slightly, his eyes full of doting and tenderness, and he said slowly: "This is the alchemy room I specially prepared for you."
Qin Miaoxi was even more confused, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, "What are you going to do with this?"
Lu Qingchen raised the corners of his lips slightly and said with a flattering smile, "I know you've always loved studying pharmacology. Although I know very little about herbs, I've sent people to buy a supply of each herb available on the market, and I also found a few ancient pharmacology books from traveling merchants. Please take a look and see if they are suitable. If there are any problems, I will immediately send people to find other ones."
"you……"
Qin Miaoxi was a little bit unbelievable. When she pushed open the door, she saw the huge alchemy furnace, which was specially used for purifying and shaping elixirs.
She didn't expect Lu Qingchen to do this for her. She looked up at his sincere eyes and all her words came together in three words, "Thank you."
Lu Qingchen immediately smiled and said, "You are my wife, it is my duty to help you prepare."
Qin Miaoxi smiled, but asked doubtfully, "This yard looks like a place where people live. What was it used for in the past?"
Lu Qingchen's face was tangled for a moment, and he stammered, "This used to be Lu Yuande's yard."
Qin Miaoxi: "..."
Zi Yan secretly gave Lu Qingchen a thumbs up, saying that her son-in-law did a great job.
Wen Zhu held his forehead with his hand. He never knew that his love-brain could go to this extent.
