Chapter 30 The slaves and maids all said

When Kumquat Green Chrysanthemum was taken from the flower hall to Gu Yuqing's bedroom by Ji Xiang, the sky was already dark, and the croissant lamp under the cloister of Tongyuan illuminated Tongyuan. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The flowers and branches in the garden are full of shadows, swaying in the wind under the illumination of the moonlight and lights, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing. There is a birdcage hanging under the corridor, and the starling in the cage is reciting poems to a peach tree not far away.

The world is full of fragrant flowers in April, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are in full bloom.

Kumquat Green Ju couldn't help but sigh silently in her heart, compared with the eldest lady's Tongyuan, the east courtyard where the second lady lived was still inferior after all.

In front of the door, auspicious opened the curtain and led the kumquat green chrysanthemum in.

As soon as he entered the back room, Kumquat Green Ju was startled by Gu Yuqing, who was reclining on the bed with a gloomy face.

After a little glance at each other, Kumquat and Green Chrysanthemum bowed down and saluted Gu Yuqing, wondering in her heart, the second lady was in a good mood all the way back, why was the eldest lady's face so ugly.

Although Gu Yuqing was only thirteen years old, he sat there without saying a word with a gloomy face, and the momentum he exuded still made people feel worried.

Kumquat Green Chrysanthemum claims to be Gu Yuhe's personal maid, and the eldest lady has always pampered the second lady, even if she is scared, it will not reach the point of trembling.

It's just that they have a cup of tea after the ceremony, and they didn't listen to Gu Yuqing telling them to get up, and the kumquat green chrysanthemum began to furl in her heart.

In the past, the eldest lady would also call them to Tongyuan for questioning, but to ask the second lady how she lived and ate, and her attitude had always been amiable, and every time she left Tongyuan, they could get a lot of rewards from the eldest lady.

But this time...... After looking at each other again, Kumquat said boldly: "I don't know if the eldest lady asked the slaves and maids to come over, but what orders do you have." ”

Gu Yuqing looked coldly at the kumquat green chrysanthemum kneeling at her feet, gently rested a teacup in her hand on the kang table in her hand, and asked coldly, "When did the second lady have a close relationship with the second prince?"

Kumquat Green Ju was immediately trembling by Gu Yuqing's question, and with a numb scalp, Kumquat said, "The second lady has no relationship with His Royal Highness the Second Prince. ”

The trembling voice had betrayed her, proving that she was lying.

Gu Yuqing sneered, "Your voice is shaking like this, do you think I will believe what you say?"

Kumquat hurriedly kowtowed, "What the slave said is true, the eldest lady is aware of it." Although he was calm, his face gradually lost blood.

"Mingcha, if I am clear, if I really find out what you are guilty of bullying, and then I will send you to the prison of the Ministry of War to carry out the bone punishment, what do you think?" Gu Yuqing's voice was light but revealing a chilling chill.

Coupled with the bone punishment that made people smell and change, Kumquat Green Chrysanthemum was suddenly so frightened that his hands and feet became weak, and he couldn't support his kneeling body.

Ji Xiang, who was standing aside at this time, scolded: "While the eldest lady still has the heart to ask you, don't hurry up and tell the truth!"

Ji Xiang was already angry because of what Gu Yuhe and the second prince did outside the palace gate today, and at this moment, he deliberately raised his voice, so frightened that Kumquat Green Ju trembled and sat on the ground.

Green chrysanthemum is less timid than kumquat, and he has long been afraid and speechless, and kumquat can barely support one or two.

"Eldest Miss, the second lady has always listened to your arrangement for everything, and always asks for your consent before doing things, whether the second lady has a close relationship with His Royal Highness the Second Prince, when to start contacting, the eldest lady knows better than the slaves and maids, the slaves and maids really don't know that the eldest lady called the slaves and maids behind the second miss at this time to come over and ask why this matter, and the second miss is still waiting for the slaves and maids to go back and beat their legs and rub their shoulders. ”

After saying this long list, Kumquat himself was taken aback by himself.

God, is she dying, she dares to say such a thing in such a tone in front of the eldest lady.

Kumquat raised his eyes and looked at Gu Yuqing timidly, just in time to meet Gu Yuqing, a pair of eyes were looking at her, and there was calm in his eyes.

Kumquat suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, only to feel that almost instantly, his body was covered with cold sweat.

The eldest lady dotes on the second lady, loves the house and Wu, and by the way, the personal maid in front of the two second ladies is also very good, so it shouldn't be counted!

Just when Kumquat was thinking about these things in his heart, Gu Yuqing said coldly, "It's really not to hit the south wall and not look back, auspicious, go to the kitchen and get a pot of coals, it's going to burn red." ”

Gu Yuqing had lost her patience.

Ji Xiang took the order and left, but after a while, he came back with a pot of extremely prosperous silver frost charcoal, signaled according to Gu Yuqing's gaze, and placed the charcoal pot directly in front of the kumquat green chrysanthemum.

The red charcoal fire illuminated the gray and white face of the kumquat green chrysanthemum like a dead man, and the eyes were also dancing with a red luster.

Gu Yuqing quietly picked up the tea cup that was already cold in his hand, the mouth of the cup was slightly tilted, and a stream of extremely fine tea went down the mouth of the cup and dripped into the charcoal basin.

Suddenly, the hot coals that encountered cold water made a "zizi" sound, and a hot vapor steamed up, blocking between Gu Yuqing and kumquat green chrysanthemum.

The heat was thick, and she quietly raised her eyes to look at Gu Yuqing's kumquat but couldn't see Gu Yuqing's face clearly, she couldn't guess what the eldest lady was doing with the brazier at this time, it was the weather of late spring, and the brazier was no longer needed.

"Don't tell the truth, do you? auspicious, put their hands in the brazier. Gu Yuqing commanded in a calm voice, and poured water into the brazier while instructing.

Ji Xiang got Gu Yuqing's order, and took a step forward without hesitation, grabbed their hands and pressed them into the brazier.

As soon as his hand approached the brazier, he felt the scorching temperature in the brazier, coupled with the sound of "zizi" ringing in his ears, and the steaming heat lingering in front of him, the kumquat green chrysanthemum was suddenly frightened and struggled, crying and begging for mercy.

It's just that the auspicious strength is too great, how can they struggle to open.

"The slave said, the slave said everything, and begged the eldest lady to spare her life. Lu Ju, who had been silent, wept bitterly and said in horror.

Gu Yuqing gave Jixiang a look, and Jixiang immediately let go of Lu Ju's hand and only grabbed Kumquat's hand tighter.

As soon as the hand was released, Green Ju immediately crawled to a place half a foot away from the brazier, looking at the red light in the brazier, Green Ju cried and said: "The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, the second miss suddenly received a post from the second prince, inviting the second miss to go to the Xishan Courtyard to enjoy the osmanthus flowers. ”

Last year...... The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival......

Gu Yuqing remembered that that day Gu Yuhe got up early in the morning, dressed up, and told herself that she was going to attend the flower viewing banquet held by her friend, Gu Yuqing naturally nodded without much thought, and even gave her a pair of earrings to take to the owner as a thank you gift before she went out.

"That was the first time that the second lady and His Royal Highness the Second Prince met alone?"

Lu Ju cried breathlessly, "Yes, the second lady was still puzzled for a long time at that time, and I don't know why the second prince just gave her a post." ”

Gu Yuqing felt that it was unbelievable, the first time she met the second prince, she had to deceive herself by hiding it, Gu Yuqing couldn't figure out why she did this!

This is no longer a problem of Xiao Duo brainwashing her and pouring ecstasy soup into her, it is simply her own problem.

Gu Yuqing raised his hand angrily and smashed the tea cup in his hand into the brazier on the ground.
