The rough girl's name is Liu Xiaocui, and she is a native of Jin'an. The mother-in-law's surname is He, and Zhang Xing heard Liu Xiaocui call her Mama He, so she called her that. The two men were silent. Zhang Xing knocked on the side, and the two of them answered simply and concisely, and once they asked about the news outside, they immediately closed their mouths.

Later, this Xia Lian who moved in was about sixteen or seventeen years old, tall and handsome, and she was a first-class girl in Qiuhua Academy, and she originally disliked Zhang Xing's background. Zhang Xing thought of some outside news, so she was naturally close to Liu Xiaocui and Mama He. Xia Lian saw it, but she looked down on it even more, and couldn't help but be mean in her words.

Zhang Xing naturally wouldn't care about these verbal battles at this time. Zhang Tao couldn't hear it, she valued her sister Zhang Xing the most, after listening to Xia Lian's words, how could she bear it? From time to time, the two exchanged words.

Seeing that there was a tendency to make a big fuss, Zhang Xing hurriedly pulled Zhang Tao aside and said in a low voice: "If she wants to say it, she will say it, but it's just a battle of words, and it won't hurt me in the slightest." On the contrary, it is inconvenient for us to be here everywhere, and there are people watching it all the time, although there is nothing to do now, but it is always right to keep a low profile and endure something. ”

Although Zhang Tao was angry in his heart, he listened to Zhang Xing's words and did not conflict with Xia He again.

Three days later, they had not yet returned, but a distinguished guest came to the courtyard. Zhang Xing was not allowed to go out of the courtyard, and could only occasionally look at the door, and saw that there seemed to be a surge of distinguished guests outside, and concluded that the person who came must be a very important person.

She thought about it and felt that it was very likely that Gu Yongfeng, the king of Huaiyang, was here - in the Jianghuai area, he was most likely to be here right now.

Gu Xichao went up to Qingmeng Mountain, and then connected to Tushan without asking about the green and white. This reminded Zhang Xing of the bitterness she witnessed outside Huaiyang City a few years ago. If it is really the palace, it will compete with each other. It doesn't matter which side is defeated. It's not what Gu Yongfeng, the king of Huaiyang, wants to see. Not to mention. This matter also involved the Shen family, the Marquis of Zhongyong. The family affair of the eldest lady of the palace. The three little masters of the Huaiyang Mansion were all involved, and Shen Huailin and Shen Huaijin also appeared, so it was Gu Yongfeng's turn.

But this is just Zhang Xing's speculation, as for whether it is the truth or not, she does not know.

Zhang Xing was restless, since Gu Yongfeng came, then their life-saving straw Gu Xichao was really not enough.

I'm afraid he won't be able to protect himself.

Zhang Xing guessed correctly, it was indeed Gu Yongfeng, the king of Huaiyang. However, after Gu Yongfeng came, he heard that Shen Huaijin and Gu Xichao had both gone up to Qingmeng Mountain, and they didn't finish drinking a cup of tea, so they also went up the mountain with their cronies.

Zhang Xing didn't know how Gu Yongfeng went up the mountain, she was restless all day, and at night, she couldn't sleep when she heard the movement outside. When I went around the courtyard, I vaguely felt that there was another large wave of people and horses entering the courtyard, and the sound of the horses' hooves falling on the stone slabs sounded for a long time. Outside, the light of the distant lantern shone in the shadows of the tree branches, and the occasional cold light flickered in her heart.

She didn't know who it was this time. In this courtyard, her life and death are not up to herself, Shen Huaijin, Gu Yongfeng, none of them are afraid that they will let her live. As for Gu Xichao, she felt that there was still a glimmer of life before, but now it seems that he is only afraid that he will be sad at that level.

It's better to rely on others than on yourself. She must have been prepared. She knew that she couldn't get out - in fact, it was useless to go out, Wei Minwen, Wang Jiye and others were missing, the stone was still in Shen Huaijin's hands, and those people in Weijiazhuang, if she left, what would happen to these people?

However, this house is really simple, she searched inside and out, but she didn't find anyone who was suitable. I found a sharp corner of rubble in the corner of the wall, sharpened it on the stone, and hid it in my sleeve. I don't know if it's useful, but it's better than nothing.

When the day dawned, two sedan chairs were brought in from the courtyard, accompanied by eight sturdy women, who smashed open the door as soon as they entered, and let them get on the sedan chair immediately. Zhang Tao and Xia He were a little panicked. Zhang Xing tightened Zhang Tao's hand tightly, signaling her to calm down.

Zhang Tao settled down, she originally wanted to sit in the same car with Zhang Xing, but the two mothers-in-law who came with her obviously had kung fu, so they couldn't allow her to talk about struggle, so they stuffed her and Xia He into a sedan chair.

Xia Lian sneered and said, "Little Pepper, stop a little, your sister is just a countryman, where can anyone sit in the sedan chair of our palace?" ”

"Shut up. Do you say one more thing, believe it or not that I tore your mouth? Zhang Tao said viciously.

Xia Lian was taken aback by her appearance, and after being stunned for a while, she was a little frightened, sneered, and gave up.

Zhang Tao snorted, and scolded a fool in his heart, he really thought that he would become a hero of the palace by saving the eldest lady's life, if the palace really planned to treat them well from now on, how could he send these yin and yang weird mothers-in-law over? Or go straight into the yard to carry people? This is clearly a situation to quietly dispose of them!

Zhang Tao felt more and more that her sister Zhang Xing was wise, if she hadn't told her in advance, she was afraid that she would have thought like Xia Lian.

Zhang Tao fidgeted in the sedan chair, while Zhang Xing sat quietly in another sedan chair. The palanquin was carried out of the back door, and after it she heard the sound of the horses snorting. After getting off the sedan chair and changing to the carriage, she saw more than a dozen men in strong suits around her, and subconsciously probed into the depths of her sleeves.

As soon as Zhang Tao got into the car, he grabbed Zhang Xing's hand tightly, trembling and whispering, "Sister." ”

Zhang Xing patted her hand. Xia Lian was riding in the same carriage with them, her face was obviously a little uneasy, and she muttered, "Where are they going to pull us?" ”

Zhang Xing and Zhang Tao did not answer.

The curtain of the carriage was lowered, and nothing could be seen clearly. After about half a day, the carriage stopped, and the servant urged them to get out of it. Zhang Xing looked around, there were mountains in the distance, the mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist, the nearby courtyard wall extended to an unknown place, there were flowers and trees in the yard, and only the courtyard house looked like it had been some years.

It seems that they have arrived in a remote village.

Zhang Xing breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

As long as they don't die immediately, there is still hope of survival.

Not far away, the servant woman who came with her was talking to a mother-in-law, but she was too far away to hear what they were saying. I saw that the woman was smiling and nodding.

The mother-in-law saw Zhang Xing looking this way. Immediately he shouted for the people to be led into the courtyard quickly.

The yard is very small. But three rooms. Zhang Tao followed Zhang Xing at all times, and when the servant woman assigned, she pointed at random, and the two sisters lived in a room. Xia Lian lived alone in one room, and the remaining room was piled with miscellaneous items.

After they entered, the courtyard door was locked, and Zhang Tao was panicked. Zhang Xing comforted in a low voice: "Don't panic God first, if they want our lives." Why drag it here? ”

Zhang Tao suddenly said with great joy: "Sister, are you saying that we have nothing to do?" ”

Zhang Xing shook her head, "Not necessarily. In the end, they have been mixed into such secrets, but they have not been extinguished, and the days to come will be different from before. She grabbed Zhang Tao's hand again and said, "Tao'er, you have to remember, even if we can get away with it, this time we can't talk about it to anyone." ”

Zhang Tao nodded hurriedly.

As he spoke. There was a sound of footsteps coming at the door, and Zhang Xing hurriedly waved her hand to ask Zhang Tao not to speak.

Footsteps came to the door. Xia Lian's voice sounded, "Little Pepper, Little Pepper." ”

"Go open the door." Zhang Xing said in a low voice.

Zhang Tao opened the door as she said, Xia Lian stood at the door and looked inside, Zhang Tao stopped at the door and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Xia Lian pulled her aside and whispered, "Little Pepper, come and live with me." ”

Zhang Tao looked at her with a frightened face, sneered, and said, "Zhilu Dao is scared? I will not live with you. After she finished speaking, she shook off Xia Lian's pull and turned to enter the house and close the door.

Xia Lian gritted her teeth and scolded in a low voice: "Little hoof, don't be arrogant, you will feel good in the future." ”

It was getting dark, and a mother-in-law brought food in from the door. There is a well in the west corner of this courtyard, Zhang Xing and Zhang Tao pulled a bucket of water up, washed their faces with cold well water, and then fell asleep.

The three of them stayed in the courtyard, and Zhang Xing and Zhang Tao were calm because they knew that there was still a way to live. Xia Lian lived alone, Zhang Xing and Zhang Tao ignored her, panicked every day, ruthlessly wrapped the bracelet in her hand, stuffed it to the mother-in-law guarding the door, and begged her to help hand the message to the Qiuhua Institute of Huaiyang Palace.

The woman threw the thing to the ground and said coldly, "Do you still want to spread the news here?" I advise you to stop. ”

Xia Lian picked up the jade bracelet that had been broken in two on the ground, and almost burst into tears.

Zhang Tao watched at the door, the fear that he had suppressed came up again, he subconsciously approached Zhang Xing, and asked in a low voice: "Sister, will we not be able to get out for the rest of our lives?" ”

After a while, Zhang Xing replied in a low voice, "No." ”

Keeping them for the rest of their lives is about the same as asking for their lives, but if this is the case, then the food that is sent every day will definitely not be good. Although the food they eat these days is not very good-looking, they can also eat it, and just by virtue of this, it doesn't look like they want to die early and be born early.

After another five days, the courtyard gate finally opened, and a mother-in-law who looked like a steward came in with several people, and Xia Lian exclaimed in surprise: "Mama Wu." Zhang Xing saw Zhang Tao stand up, and also stood up.

That Mama Wu had a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold, and as soon as she came in, she said: "You have made a great contribution, and the princess has long been thinking about rewarding you, but there have been many things in the house recently, so she has delayed." Are you all right here? ”

Xia Lian said with tears in her eyes: "We were originally serving the eldest lady, and it is our duty to do that." ”

Mama Wu looked at Zhang Tao again. Zhang Tao had already received a lot of advice from Zhang Xing, and knew that he couldn't talk much at this time, so he only nodded and said, "It's okay, thank you for the princess's concern." ”

Mama Wu smiled even warmer, looked at Zhang Xing and asked, "Little Pepper, this is your sister, right?" ”

Zhang Xing bent her body and smiled: "Mama Wu is good." ”

"Okay." Mama Wu smiled and said, "Since everyone is good, then it's good." Today, the old woman is here to take you back, and second, she is here to ask you something. (To be continued......)
