Chapter 735 The candle went out suddenly
Aster peeled another grape and fed it into Zhuo Qing's mouth.
Zhuo Qing swallowed it and chuckled: "She was already dealing with me, and when she actually sent me an invitation for no reason, I realized that something was wrong, and sure enough, it was ......." ”
Shion smiled flatteringly. "I heard that the fifth princess was the worst by the eldest lady, not only was she hungry and frightened, but she almost fought with the eldest lady. I heard that it was the holy decree that the eldest lady didn't know how to ask for, and made a maid under her name into a side concubine! ”
Zhuo Qing sneered. "She deserves it! How much loss our sisters suffered from Zhuo Nan, she Zhuo Ran doesn't have a long memory, and she sent it to the door to be bullied. ”
Zi Yuan didn't dare to laugh at Zhuo Ran, she was now the fifth princess in the limelight! Changing the topic, he said: "I heard that the eldest lady also invited the crown princess, and even the crown princess was eviled. This eldest lady is also bold, isn't she afraid of ......?"
Isn't the eldest lady afraid that one day, whether it is the crown prince or the fifth prince, after ascending the throne as the emperor, the crown princess who becomes the queen will take revenge on her with the fifth princess?
Even if the identity of the eldest lady is respected, she will definitely not be able to surpass the mother of a country! Anyway, she can't figure it out.
Zhuo Nan's behavior is like the courage of a horseman, which will only bring endless troubles!
Zhuo Qing smiled contemptuously and said, "What is she afraid of? At the beginning, she was just a wild girl, and she dared to be disobedient and unfilial when she had not recognized her ancestors and returned to her ancestors. This will be named a lady of fate, and with the support of the queen mother, she is naturally a fox and a fake tiger, and she does not take others in her eyes. ”
It seems to make some sense...... Shion nodded approvingly. "Miss, it's late at night, and it's time to rest after the slave and maid have waited for you to bathe. ”
"Hmm. Zhuo Qing nodded, got up from the beauty couch, and went straight to the bathing room.
A maid lit a candle on the table in the shower room, and in other corners, illuminating the dark shower room all at once.
The two maids filled the tub with warm water.
Aster sprinkled with petals.
A maid helps Zhuo Qing with wide clothes.
Zhuo Qing stepped into the tub with her feet raised, and then sat down slowly. The water in the tub immediately overflowed, dripping the ground around the tub.
Several maids all came out and stood guard outside the gate.
Only Ziyuan was left to pick up the silk cloth and serve Zhuo Qing and help her wipe her back.
Zhuo Qing lay on the edge of the bathtub, smelling the fragrance of flowers, half-squinting and enjoying the service of the asters, and asked, "Which maid did Zhuo Nan get into the Five Princes' Mansion?"
Zi Yuan stopped wiping her back in her hand, tilted her head and thought for a while, and continued to wipe her back and said: "I heard that it seems to be one of the twin sisters, which one is it, the slave maid heard what others said, but she didn't remember it." ”
"One of the twin sisters?" Zhuo Qing repeated, and two bewitching women with identical faces and completely opposite temperaments appeared in her contemplative mind.
One temperament is as cold as a snow lotus, and the other is as enchanting as a red lotus fire.
Zhuo Qing narrowed her eyes and affirmed: "If I guess correctly, there is no doubt that the one who is named the side concubine must be Qingwu." ”
Qingwu Ziyuan nodded in agreement with surprise on her face. "Yes, yes, yes, it's called Qingwu! In order to improve her status, the eldest lady let her marry the fifth prince smoothly, and I heard that she also recognized her as a righteous sister! But Qingwu is undoubted, miss, how do you guess?"
Zhuo Qing's beautiful eyes flashed with pride, but she asked modestly: "Have you forgotten that when my mother was unconscious, one day the Holy Lord came in person, and the Fifth Prince and the Fourth Prince had a dispute over this fox spirit, and the Fourth Prince was whipped and injured, but he was punished by the Holy Lord and confined in the Four Princes' Mansion." ”
That was the day when Bai Zhi hit a wall and died!
When he only had his last breath left, he was trampled on his neck by Zhuo Nan's cruel kick and died unjustly!
Thinking of this, Zhuo Qing's expression instantly became hideous, and her eyes were full of resentment!
Zhuo Qing's change was seen by Ziyuan, and he shrank his neck in fright, and said cautiously: "...... The slave remembered. Obviously, she also thought of the tragic death of Angelica Angelica that day.
Bai Zhi has been disfigured by the eldest lady, and in the end she still refuses to let her go, Bai Zhi's death is really pitiful.
Burst...... , a candle suddenly went out.
The bright room suddenly darkened a corner.
Zi Yuan and Zhuo Qing looked at the candle that suddenly went out in the northeast corner at the same time, and suddenly forgot the topic just now.
Aster glanced left and right a few times and muttered strangely. "How did the candle go out?"
Zhuo Qing also checked a few times, and the door was closed, except for one window that was ajar. Disapprehantly, he said, "Probably the wind blowing in from the window blew it out." It's fine, it's just one candle extinguished, and there are three more, so keep scrubbing and leave it alone. ”
"Yes. Ziyuan answered, picked up the silk cloth and continued to help Zhuo Qing wipe her back.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred, and only two pops were heard, and two more candles were extinguished!
Shion suddenly stopped and looked at the strange candle that had been extinguished, and looked left and right a few times in fear.
Zhuo Qing also sensed that something was not right, but she pretended to be calm and said, "You let the maid outside the door come in and re-light the extinguished candle." ”
Shion nodded, casually placed the silk cloth on top of the tub, and walked quickly to the door.
I heard a creak, opened the door, and the moonlight outside shone in at once.
The two maids who were supposed to be guarding the door were gone!
Ziyuan was suddenly surprised! I thought that the maid guarding the door dared to leave her post without permission?!
Zhuo Qing saw Ziyuan standing at the gate and kept looking, and immediately wrinkled her eyebrows in displeasure and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zi Yuan hurriedly turned around and said, "Miss, the two guarding the door are gone." He turned and stepped out of the threshold, and stood on the top of the steps, looking around and surveying the courtyard.
Looking at the beauty couch that Zhuo Qing had slept on before, it was still placed in place, and the table next to it was still full of tea sets and fruits.
Zi Yuan muttered to herself suspiciously: "I didn't clean up the courtyard, are you cleaning up the young lady's boudoir?"
Zhuo Qing's voice sounded behind him again. "Leave them alone! ”
"Yes, Miss. Shion answered, turned around and stepped into the house with doubts in his heart, closed the door casually, and walked to the extinguished candle.
Zhuo Qing watched Aster walk towards the northeast corner where the first candle was extinguished, and at this moment, there was a creak in his ears, and the door suddenly opened.
Zhuo Qing and Ziyuan suddenly froze, and subconsciously looked up at the open door.
I saw a maid walk in with her head down, making it impossible to see her face clearly.
