Located in the east of the city, a mansion covering an area of dozens of acres is the ancestral residence of the Duanmu family of the Duanding Marquis of the current dynasty. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info from the outside, it is no different from an ordinary residence. But if you walk into the house, you can see the pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard, and the corridor of nine songs. The red bricks and green tiles are piled up, the bluestone glazed inlay, and the rare treasures in the house are even more dazzling.

In front of the mansion stood two big men with thick eyebrows with swords at their waists, glaring angrily and majestic. This is not an ordinary caretaker, but an executioner who has returned from the hell of Shura, exuding a bloodthirsty aura.

The carriage stopped at a distance of ten paces from the gate of Yunfu. Yun Tianhua helped Qiushu and got out of the carriage.

Qiushu has been to the Hou Mansion, so he knows it. At the moment, he was puzzled: "Miss, what are we doing here?" ”

Yun Qianhua didn't answer her words, and ordered, "You and Yun Jia are waiting here and give me the post." What if ......" she thought about it, but finally swallowed back the words that followed.

"Oh!" Qiushu handed her the post. Yun Tianhua took it, turned around and took out the small wooden box he brought with him from the carriage, took a few deep breaths, and walked forward.

Qiu Shu always felt that his right eye kept beating suddenly, and he always felt that something bad was about to happen. "I always feel that the eldest lady is not the same as before."

Yun Jia also felt the same way, "I also think that today's eldest lady always feels cold and has a sense of alienation." ”

"Is it ......?"

"What is it?" Qiu Shu was gone, and Yun Jia asked curiously.

"Nothing. Let's wait! It's going to rain this day, I hope the eldest lady will come out soon. ”

Yunjia no longer asks, you know what you should know, and don't ask if you shouldn't know. This is one of the principles of survival as a subordinate.

Yun Tianhua walked to the gate of the Hou Mansion, and immediately a saber guard walked down the steps, and asked in a tough voice, "Who is the girl looking for, but what's the matter?" ”

Yun Tianhua freed up a hand, handed over the post, and said, "Yun Tianhua, the daughter of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, meet the old marquis." ”

The guard took the post, opened it and looked at it, and glanced up and down at the little girl in front of him, as if to judge whether she was the future princess of the Hou Mansion. Yun Tianhua didn't dodge either, and let him see it generously.

After a while, the guard only left a sentence of "Wait a minute, girl", and walked into the house.

Yun Tianhua looked up at the plaque of the Duanding Marquis Mansion hanging high, this was a name she had only heard of in Zhao Liangyi's mouth in her previous life. For her, these four words are as illusory as a dream.

After the marriage, she has never been here. Now standing in front of this gate, we can deeply understand what is the big family of Zhumen, the high lintel. Just a plaque has already crushed her to the ground, let alone walking inside.

It's really not a place she can walk into.

When the guard came out again, he was followed by a young man, and Yun Tianhua recognized that it was the one who often followed the old marquis. But he never knew his name.

He walked up to her, first saluted, and then said, "The eldest lady came so early, and the old marquis just got up." ”

"In this way, it is bothering."

"Where, the old marquis is happy to know that you are coming. Miss, please. ”

Yun Qianhua nodded slightly, and walked towards the mansion with the box.

***

Entering the living room, the old marquis has not yet come. Yun Tianhua put the box on the table, picked up the tea served by the next person, and waited while sipping. It's just that she pretended to have something in her heart, but she didn't taste the difference in this tea.

It was quiet in the living room, and the maid serving tea had retreated to the door. The morning glow casts an eerie glow on the floor of the living room. Yun Tinghua listened carefully, and could vaguely hear a regular leak on the side of the living room.

About a quarter of an hour later, the old marquis's tough body appeared at the door of the living room, and the little guard who had led him in with him was the same one who had just led him in.

Yun Tianhua stood up and saluted, "Say hello to the old marquis." ”

"Get up!" The old marquis walked in and helped her weakly. Then he naturally sat down on the main seat and asked, "It shouldn't be just to say hello to come here so early!" ”

A maid poured a cup of tea for him, and the old marquis took it, and then waved her hand to let her step down.

Yun Tianhua turned around, picked up the box on the table, bowed his head slightly, and said, "Tinghua came this time, one is to ask for peace, and the other is to return things." ”

"Is that the box in your hand?"

"Yes."

The guards beside him took a few steps forward, took the box in Yun Qianhua's hand, and placed it on the table. At the same time, open the box so that the old marquis can see the contents clearly.

The old marquis glanced at it slightly, and there was no change on his majestic face. Holding a teacup in one hand and a tea lid in the other, he lowered his head and blew on the tea leaves on the water, and then took a sip.

There was silence in the living room for a moment, and Yun Qianhua's heart was pounding, as if it was about to jump out of his throat. She couldn't figure out the old marquis's thoughts, she embarrassed him in person, would he kill her in a fit of anger?

She regretted that she shouldn't have run so recklessly, her palms were full of sweat, and her legs were a little unstoppable. Sometimes, silence is more terrible than quarrels.

But now it's hard to ride a tiger, so she can't retreat.

The old marquis put down the teacup and looked at her fixedly for a while. Only then did he ask, "Do you know what consequences what you did today will bring to your Yun family?" ”

The voice was not hurried, there was no anger or sarcasm, it was like asking a simple question like "Did you eat today?" Maybe it was because of his own weakness, Yun Qianhua faintly felt the murderous aura from above.

The Hou Mansion can take a fancy to you, the daughter of a fourth-grade official, it should be the Yun family's gratitude to Dai De. I don't know how to withdraw from the marriage, where will I put the face of the Hou Mansion?

Yun Tianhua bowed again and said, "I know." ”

"Now that you know, you dare to come? Our Hou Mansion treats you like this, aren't you still satisfied? "The voice is still flat.

Yun Tianhua took a deep breath, looked at the old marquis's gaze, and said: "Old marquis, Tianhua is fortunate to have three lives, to be pitied by the prince of the world, to be loved by the old marquis, to treat it as a treasure, and treat it as his own." She was inexplicably grateful.

It's a pity that the blessings are thin and have no right to consume. The lintel of the Hou Mansion is high, and the name is all over our dynasty, and it is discouraged by the glory. The dragon and phoenix among the princes of the world, chivalrous and gallbladder, thousands of women in the world, and it is not a good match to pour Huahua.

The old marquis said a joke at the beginning, and he was overjoyed and believed it. Now that Huang Liang woke up from a dream, he knew that it was just his own self-righteousness. So today, I apologize. ”

It's all self-deprecating.

The old marquis's rough instruction tapped the table in a rhythmic manner. There was still no change in his face. "I told your father that I promised you that the Yun family would not change, if you have no children, you will succeed one, so why bother so much?"

"Tilting Hua is a person who is destined to bring calamity, I don't want to bring this calamity to the prince." That's what she says, and it's a good excuse.

The old marquis said again: "Didn't Duchun say that as long as you are worthy of the Plastic Condensation Lily Pill, you can solve your problem? Why are you so anxious to abandon this hope? ”
