Chapter 43: Covetousness
Walking down the library, Yinli let go of his hand. The two walked together towards the lake. Both the Snowclouds and the Dark Guard are hidden behind. It's farther away, after all, Fuzhong is still relatively safe. What's more, Yinli's coming over this time is also temporary, and many people don't know.
In front of them was a rockery, and the two found a rockery near the lake and sat down. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly seemed to hear the voice of Si Si Suo, and it seemed that someone was speaking.
Yingqi's eyes lit up, and she pulled Yinli, Yinli had no choice but to let her listen to the corner.
"Master Cousin, well, ah, tap...... Well, you tap" An ambiguous female voice came low. Ying Qi couldn't help but roll her eyes, how could she meet two wild mandarin ducks.
Yinli was also a little speechless, pulling Yingqi's hand, ready to withdraw quietly. He was not interested in these things in Wuya Mansion.
"Young Master Cousin, then you have decided whether you want the second miss or the Zhou family's young lady, why did it suddenly change?" The woman's next sentence made Ying Qi stop.
"You girl. Your young lady is very good. But Zhou Luyao is more valuable. Just use the same excuse to lure Zhou Luyao over. ”
"But if you don't choose the second miss, how can I strive to be the second miss's maid?" the woman was a little dissatisfied.
"At that time, young master, I'll be done, so it's better to just ask you to come over. Stupid!"
"That's pretty much it. In this case, choose the lake on the left side of the stage. There are only occasional people passing by. This makes it easier for you to get out of the water and attract people. ”
"Good. Then I'll exert myself, you little hooves!!, be comfortable!" The rest of the time I only heard the impact of **.
Ying Qi pulled Yinli and quietly withdrew.
Bypassing the rockery, Yinli beckoned, and Xueyun immediately stepped forward.
"We're going to figure out how to make a fool of him. Ying Qi thought for a moment and whispered to Xue Yun.
"It's all up to you. Yinli smiled.
So Xueyun and the dark guard quickly went down to make arrangements.
There is a path along the lake on the left side of the stage, and the woods on both sides are woods, and the Tibetans are excellent. As soon as Ying Qi and Yin Li hid themselves through the trees, they saw the so-called young master of the table coming in a hurry.
"It's him!" Ying Qi snorted. The person who came turned out to be an old acquaintance, Li Sangongzi of the state capital. Yinli tightened her hand. Ying Qi covered her mouth and stopped making a sound.
Sure enough, after a while, I saw Zhou Luyao with a little maid under the guidance of the maid just now.
The night was hazy, "Where is your young lady?" Zhou Luyao saw the maid stop by the lake.
"Over there. The maid replied. "Over there, Miss Zhou, look. She seemed to be pointing to the side with her hand, and in the hazy night, Zhou Luyao stepped forward to take a look, the maid's foot was hooked, her hand was forced, and with a plop, Zhou Luyao fell into the lake.
"Help, help, Miss Zhou has fallen overboard!" the maid cried out. Then I saw Li Sangongzi rushing over.
"Who fell overboard?" and jumped into the lake without hesitation, without waiting for the maid to reply.
"Young Master, Young Master. ”
"You go over there and call for more people to come over, I'm here watching. At the same time, she pointed out to the little maid. The little maid, who looked very immature, ran out quickly.
When Yinli saw that there was no one, he whistled, so the secret guard came out of the nearby woods and knocked the maid unconscious.
Then Xueyun and a woman in her forties found by the dark guard also jumped into the lake. Xueyun quickly scooped up Zhou Luyao before Li Sangongzi, and then wrapped Zhou Luyao's coat around her mother-in-law.
And the mother-in-law was hugged by Li Sangongzi, the mother-in-law pretended to be a little choked and fainted, Li Sangongzi took the mother-in-law half to the shore in the dark, and also stripped off most of the clothes on the mother-in-law's body, pretending to struggle to fall off in the water, and waited for someone to come.
Xueyun quickly wrapped Zhou Luyao, who was choking on water, and sent it to the small courtyard next to him with a silk sheet. And then a large crowd of people gathered.
Then I saw Li Sangongzi crawling ashore with his almost half-naked mother-in-law in his arms.
"Miss Zhou, are you alright?" a group of aristocratic women rushed over surrounded by their respective maids.
When the lantern came over, everyone was stunned.
I saw that the woman held by Li Sangongzi showed her face, and it turned out to be the princess who professionally washed the manger in the stable.
Li Sangongzi saw clearly the person he was holding through the lantern, and was stunned for a while.
"W-what's going on?"
Everyone thought to themselves, we still want to ask the two of you.
"Ahem, ahem. I saw that Mrs. Wang seemed to choke on a few mouthfuls of water, and then woke up leisurely.
As soon as he saw that he was being held by Li Sangongzi, he pushed hard, and then he lay on the ground and cried.
"I'm not alive anymore, you, even if you're a son, you can't tease me, an old woman. I have sons and daughters, how can I see people here? After thinking about it, she got up from the ground again and pulled Li Sangongzi to tear it.
"You who killed a thousand knives, even if I don't agree, you can't destroy the corpse and destroy the traces, and push the old woman and me into the lake. ”
When everyone heard this, they saw Mrs. Wang's clothes with some tearing marks, and the two of them were quite speechless.
As for Li Sangongzi, he was completely shocked and speechless.
This, what the hell is going on, why did I hold a stablewoman.
"Hey, what's going on? Everybody's gathered around here. Just when everyone was surprised, Ying Qi came over with Zhou Luyao. Zhou Luyao had already changed into a royal blue dress that came with her. She had always been in the habit of preparing a dress of the same color when she went out, and no one noticed that her dress was different from the dress at the banquet. The night is hazy, and the style is not far behind.
"Miss Zhou, where are you from?" someone in the crowd asked.
"Oh, Sister Qi and I went to the Library Pavilion to see Master Nalan's treasures. I saw the lights shining here from afar, so I came over curiously. Zhou Luyao replied with a smile.
"Hey, isn't this Mrs. Wang? Why did you fall into the water?" Zhou Luyao took a step forward, and seemed to suddenly find Mrs. Wang.
"Miss Zhou, I'm sorry, I gave you to me, and the cloak that was going to make my daughter's dress for the day got wet. Just now...... Just now...... "Mrs. Wang seemed to remember the incident of falling into the lake, and she cried even more sadly.
"It's fine. This cloak of mine was sent from the coast of Guangdong, and the material is excellent, so you can wash it at home and it won't be damaged after drying. Your daughter can use it then, too. But why did you suddenly fall into the water? Are you okay?" Zhou Luyao pretended not to see Li Sangongzi's embarrassment.
"I, I ......" Mrs. Wang didn't speak again, but everyone understood in their hearts, it is estimated that in the night, Li Sangongzi recognized Mrs. Wang as Miss Zhou. Everyone couldn't help but be very disgusted with this Li Sangongzi, and the young ladies of each family also unconsciously moved behind their mothers-in-law, worried that they would be taken in by this Li Sangongzi, this is a rubbish person.
"Okay, go clean up and don't catch the cold. The eldest lady handed the color to a few big maids, and the two maids came forward and hugged the princess and left, and everyone dispersed. The other two maids were reluctant to step forward and support Li Sangongzi to leave.
"Sister Qi, is it convenient for me to go to your courtyard?" Zhou Luyao looked at Ying Qi with a smile.
"Of course welcome. It's just that the small courtyard is simple, Sister Yao shouldn't dislike it. The two walked away as they spoke.
The lake, which was still very lively just now, fell silent for a while, and Yinli walked out of the forest with the secret guard.
"Send another maid over and protect her. ”
"Yes, master. Xueyun curtsied and followed in Yingqi's direction. Yinli also turned around and walked towards the outer courtyard, it was time to return.
"Sister Qi, I really don't know how to thank you. Zhou Luyao and Ying Qi sat on the long table of the peach blossom cupboard, and after Lixia served tea and pastries, all the maids withdrew. After all, the rest of the conversation is not suitable for the maids to hear.
"Sister Yao, this is what I should do. Our daughter's house is as precious as a flower, where is such a filthy sludge that people can covet. Ying Qi thought of Li Sangongzi's embarrassed appearance and felt funny.
"Thank you again. If you want me to help you in the future, as long as I can do it, I will do my best. Zhou Luyao remembered that if she was really insulted by that Li Sangongzi, she would still be able to live like that. When I go home, I must ask my father to teach that Li Sangongzi a hard lesson. What kind of garbage, dare to come up with such a dirty means to think about yourself.
"It's okay, it's okay, Sister Yao, don't care. Friends should help each other. ”
"Well, you'll be my best sister from now on. Zhou Luyao also felt that her mouth was too relaxed, and she just had to act in the future.
"Sister Yao, have you ever been outside to visit the capital? I am at home every day, and I never know what it is like outside?" Ying Qi changed the subject.
"I've been out. The capital is very lively. There was a chance that we would hang out together. The two slowly moved on to other topics.
