Chapter 171: Troubled Conscience
Bai Zimo didn't say anything, and after a glance, Jiuyue immediately shut up.
He knew that the master would not let him expose the fact of his leg disease in front of his wife.
However, it also made Pei Qingqing realize that something was wrong?
Bai Zimo's restrained glance, she could see clearly.
Looking at Jiuyue's face again, it was obvious that something was wrong.
The feeling that Bai Zimo was hiding from her came back, and her picturesque eyebrows frowned slightly.
But Bai Zimo seemed to know that she wanted to ask questions, so she didn't wait for her to speak, her figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, the person disappeared.
Jiuyue understood her master's intentions, but the worry on her face was not well contained, and she bowed slightly to Pei Qingqing, "Please rest assured, Madame, the subordinates will protect the Hou Ye, and the subordinates will retire." ”
Then, Jiuyue chased after Bai Zimo.
All of a sudden, Pei Qingqing was left alone, but her doubts were getting higher and higher.
Bai Zimo, there must be something important to hide from her.
It must have something to do with his legs!
No, she must ask carefully another day.
I thought that when he was willing to tell her, he would naturally tell her.
That's a tacit trust between each other.
But now she didn't want to wait.
She and Bai Zimo were mixed with this kind of secret, which made her feel that Bai Zimo was still far away from her.
It's a bad feeling.
Between husband and wife, there should be no secrets!
Well, that's it.
Pei Qingqing thought to herself.
But at the same time, she was also distressed.
If it is said that husband and wife should be honest with each other, but what about her secret?
Say she's a lonely ghost who was reborn after death and came back for revenge?
I'm afraid that if I say it, others will think she's crazy, right?
If Bai Zimo knew, how would he see himself?
Thinking about it, Pei Qingqing couldn't help but worry again.
"Madame, supper is ready. ”
At this time, Bizhu, who had gone to prepare dinner, returned.
Seeing that Pei Qingqing was left alone in the room, Bizhu was suspicious, "Madam, where is the Hou Ye?"
Wasn't it still there just now?
"Master Hou has something to do, and he will be back soon, so he doesn't have to wait for dinner. Bizhu's arrival interrupted Pei Qingqing's unwarranted worries.
The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and when the time is ripe, she will find a way to tell Bai Zimo.
Now, let's eat first.
Hearing that Master Hou didn't come back for dinner, no one knew that Bizhu quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Madame would not suspect her, but she was afraid that the Hou Ye would see it.
Fortunately, Hou Ye is not here, and she can feel more at ease.
But rest assured, how can she rest assured?
She has a troubled conscience every day, tormented by her conscience!
Bizhu's face was filled with sorrow and self-blame.
Her sins will not be atoned for......
"Bizhu, what's wrong with you?" Why don't you look good?
"Huh?" Pei Qingqing suddenly spoke, but Bizhu was startled, and quickly restrained her thoughts, shook her head and said, "The slave is fine, I just remembered that my wife suffered in the Pei family in the past, but now it's okay, Master Hou loves my wife so much, and my wife will never suffer again in the future!"
Bizhu sniffed, and her eyes were red.
She was telling the truth.
She knew that in a few days, she would be exposed.
When the time comes, it will not be a pity for her to die.
As long as the lady can live well, she will no longer endure hardship, and her conscience will be better.
Master Hou will definitely save his wife.
"You girl, when did you learn to be so sentimental?" Looking at Bizhu's appearance, Pei Qingqing laughed for a while, and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes for her, "Bizhu, with me, you won't suffer." ”
She thought what was wrong with Bizhu? It turned out that she was sentimental.
In the future, with her, she will not let Bizhu suffer anymore.
But her words made Bizhu's tears even more fierce.
Bizhu tried to endure it, telling herself that she couldn't cry.
But the tears just couldn't help falling, and she wanted to hug her and say sorry and beg for her forgiveness......
But she couldn't, her old mother and young brother at home were waiting for her to save her life.
For the first time, Bizhu realized that being alive is the greatest torment.
Even before her wife got married, she was bewitched by Pei Ronghua, drove her away, and didn't let her serve by her side, she didn't feel so tormented like now.
Good guy, Bizhu is crying, Pei Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and kept wiping her tears, "Why do you cry more and more? Don't cry, Bizhu, aren't you wronged in the house? If you are really wronged, you have to tell me honestly, do you know?"
This crying is not like being wronged!
Why did you suddenly get aggrieved?
Could it be true that I was bullied?
"No... Mrs. was too worried...... "Bizhu kept shaking her head, as if she had broken into tears, crying and laughing, and wiped a handful of tears for herself, "The slave is fine, no one in the house bullies the slave and maid, and the slave and maid are living well here with Madame!"
It's just a pity that her good days are numbered......
"You, don't cry, I'm hungry, don't go to dinner again, the food should be cold, wipe your tears, don't cry. ”
appeased Bizhu, but Pei Qingqing felt weird.
Bizhu is weird.
Bai Zimo also had something to hide from her.
She couldn't tell what was wrong, but Bizhu was weird.
Bizhu sniffed, stopped her tears, and pulled a smile at the corner of her mouth, "What Madame said is that the slave maid will serve Madame for dinner." ”
......
In the dead of night, the lights are dark.
Two figures shuttled through the night like ghosts.
The emperor's mausoleum, although it is not said to be heavily guarded, also has a spirit army.
But for Bai Zimo, it was a breeze to sweep past these spirit guards.
On the right side of the Emperor's Mausoleum is the entrance to the dark passage that Jiuyue said.
Bai Zimo looked around, and Jiuyue came slowly.
After looking around the surrounding city walls, I didn't see any difference, and a large area was already covered with weeds.
As soon as Bai Zimo stretched out his hand, he might as well be stopped by Jiuyue, "Master Hou, let your subordinates come down!"
The master is a leg and foot supported by internal force, and if there is any danger at the entrance, he can still resist one or two.
Bai Zimo didn't refute it, and let Jiuyue do it.
While maintaining a state of vigilance, Jiuyue had to take into account the safety of her master, peeled off the weeds on the wall, cautiously stretched out her hand, groped for a long time, and touched a small card slot.
Jiuyue became more and more cautious, guarding against any hidden arrows that might hurt people, and at the same time, the palm of her hand pressed a stone brick on the wall.
The stone bricks are pushed inward.
Sure enough, in the next second, a hole was revealed.
Immediately after, an unpleasant musty smell blew out of the hole.
Jiuyue immediately covered her mouth and nose.
Worrying about poisonous gas is one of them, this hole is not ventilated all year round, and the musty smell is really heavy.
It's just that......
It is true that there is a hole, but this hole is not as good as ordinary dark passages, and people can walk straight......
This, to put it mildly, I'm afraid it's no different from a dog hole, right?
This is the escape tunnel left by the workers who built the imperial tomb?!
"Master Hou, please wait here first, and your subordinates will go in to explore the way. Jiuyue suggested.
The master's legs are not suitable for standing and walking for a long time.
In addition, it is such a small hole, and no one can go straight into it.
It's not good for the master to go.
It's better for him to go first and explore the way.
Jiuyue was worried that his master's body was one of them, but in fact, he didn't want his master to drill this hole......
