Chapter Ninety-Seven: The North Courtyard

"You said that the county lord invited me to the old lady's courtyard?" Min Yuan frowned, a little surprised. 56 Library's new website:

"Back to the eldest princess, a few days ago, the old lady told the county lord to do filial piety and always serve by his side, so the county lord remembered the old lady's instructions when he was free, but the old lady said that only the county lord was accompanied, and the county lord felt that it was not appropriate, so he wanted to ask the eldest princess to go and see the old lady. ”

Zhaoqiu was a little apprehensive, and the joy along the way was looking forward to the well-guarded and strict rules of the upper room, but it had already dissipated without a trace.

When she came to see the eldest princess alone, she realized that the eldest princess was not an approachable person, and Yan Yanye's words and smiles on weekdays were just kindness to the county lord.

She was a little unsure if the eldest princess would fall into this trap.

Min Yuan and Mother Wu glanced at each other, were silent for a while with a calm face, then slapped the table hard, stood up, and said coldly: "It's too unusual." ”

After speaking, he took Wu's mother out of the house.

Zhaoqiu's neck shrank, and her legs and feet were a little cold, did the eldest princess see through it? Will the county lord be okay? Tears rolled in her eyes in fear for a while.

Min Yuan went out and walked briskly along the corridor for a while before calming down, and Mother Wu just followed closely without saying a word.

"It's too much, old witch. Min Yuan said in a low voice.

Mother Wu quickly glanced up at Min Yuan, then looked around, and was relieved to see that no one was nearby, and persuaded: "My third princess, you can be careful when you speak, there are many people in the house, don't provoke some unnecessary right and wrong." ”

"It's that my mother is too kind, and she persuades me to endure it from time to time, so that she has a long face for the Yu family......" Min Yuan pursed his lips, his face was gloomy, "This Xue family's housewife, it's not her Yu family." ”

It's just that she suffered a lot when she was young, and now even her daughter, her nominal granddaughter, is used as a raft to carry a sedan chair for herself, but it really gives her face.

Mother Wu shook her head helplessly. Over the years, the third princess has been famous and famous, and she has been praised for knowing the rules in general, but when she meets the horse and the county lord, her temper is like that of a child.

"It's the old slave's fault, don't be angry anymore, the eldest princess. Let's take a look, if the Yu clan is restless, just beat her. Mother Wu smiled.

No matter how she said that the county lord is also of royal blood, she usually persuades the eldest princess and doesn't want to cause trouble, but none of the royal family is afraid of trouble. Countering violence with violence is the right way.

Min Yuan's face was slightly gloomy, but his heart did not relax.

The old witch dared to make an eccentric double standard against Yuanyuan, and she dared to let her see what was called the protection of the royal people.

……

"County Lord?" Mother Qin paused, very surprised, and then hurriedly squatted down and saluted, and said with a smile: "What is the county lord doing in the North Courtyard?"

Yiying smiled sweetly, and said softly: "I came to greet the old lady today, is the old lady okay?"

When Qin's mother heard this, she only felt that her scalp was numb, and the alarm bell was loud. The scene of the little girl mocking the old lady in a slow tone last time is still vivid, but she said that she wanted to come to greet the old lady, what kind of idea is this?

She should have said yes, but she had a bad premonition in her heart, glanced at the direction she came from, walked a few steps quietly, hunched her waist and pointed in the direction: "County Lord, please." ”

Yiying blinked, a little puzzled, and pointed in the direction she came from: "Isn't that direction the closest?"

Mother Qin's body stiffened slightly, and she forced a smile: "The county lord is not very familiar with this mansion, and this road is the closest." ”

Banyue stood up and said with a smile: "Mom, I think it's a mistake? The slave maid only memorized all the routes in the house a few days ago, and this is indeed the nearest road." ”

Mother Qin was stunned, then patted her head sharply and said with a smile: "People are old, and remembering things is indeed not as good as before." He said to Yi Ying: "Please also ask the county lord to forgive the sin, but that road is a little off, and this is the main road." ”

Yi Ying waved her hand and said with a smile: "It's okay." As soon as I came to the house, there were guards patrolling everywhere, and I couldn't rest assured when I walked in my own house, so what majesty did my Xue family have to talk about? ”

Qin's mother couldn't, so she had to change directions, but she felt bitter in her heart: What kind of excuse is this, it seems that the county lord really didn't have any good calculations this time.

Half Moon glanced back at the grass not far away and gestured.

A gust of wind blew, and the grass shook slightly, and then it disappeared without a trace.

……

The group passed a fork in the road, on the left was a clean road, and on the right was a small courtyard that looked like it had been abandoned for some time, with weeds growing outside, and layers of dust on the door, and the door was empty.

Mother Qin's whole body tensed, and she was slightly relieved when she saw the hidden door. Anyway, that guy wouldn't be so careless as to even lock the door.

Just, still just in case.

"County Lord, let's walk up the road, cleaner. ”

Yi Ying sighed, didn't raise any objections, and wanted to follow Qin's mother.

Mother Qin's hanging heart had just been put down, but when she heard Banyue suddenly scream, she was startled, and subconsciously glared at her.

Yiying glanced at her and didn't speak.

"County Lord, the old slave was scared by the half-moon girl...... her face was slightly confused, and she didn't dare to say more.

Banyue didn't pay attention to her, but said anxiously: "County master, the slave seems to have seen the little fox in our yard." ”

"Where?" Yiying became nervous when she heard this.

"Look. ”

Mother Qin also followed the direction pointed by Half Moon, and sure enough, she saw a small white thing moving under the red wall, but she couldn't really see what it was.

Yi Ying glanced at it and walked in that direction, and Mother Qin hurriedly grabbed her: "County Lord, let's go see the old lady first, the fox should let the guards in the mansion go and bring it back, so as not to dirty your clothes." ”

Banyue glanced at her coldly: "Mom, do you know that it is the white fox that the eldest prince sent to the county lord, the county lord is very rare, and he has to bathe it himself every day, where can he let it stay here by itself?"

"What the old slave means is that it is not safe here, and the safety of the county lord is always more important than a brute. She was so nervous at the moment that she couldn't bother with words.

"Mother Qin doesn't seem to want me to approach this road from just now, or rather, is there any reason for this courtyard? Could it be that this courtyard is haunted?" Yi Ying looked at her with a smile.

Mother Qin shrunk her neck, how dare she fabricate something haunted, the eldest father mainly knew, and she had to pick her skin?

She shook her head and said with a dry smile: "Where is this ...... the county lord?"

"That being the case, Half Moon, you go in with me and take my white fox out. Hearing this, Yi Ying turned around, no longer hesitated, and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

Mother Qin's teeth were cold, she stabilized her mind and comforted herself: The pony is definitely not in it. After a while, he secretly said: Even in it, it is also his creation, for his Aunt Qin, she has done everything she can, and she is no wonder to the side.

Thinking like this, he also plucked up his courage and went in with the two of them.
