Twilight, the afterglow of the sunset is reflected on the plaque with the pattern of bluestone Ruyi's head. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The info plaque is engraved with three big characters of "four livables" in Hanli, and the surroundings are quiet.

A woman wearing a silk gown with a red background is crouching in front of the bookcase, carefully copying the Lotus Sutra. The woman's porcelain-like white and smooth skin shone with a little luster, a pair of almond eyes were bright and quiet, and only the melancholy between her eyebrows showed that she was not calm.

The sound of approaching footsteps came from the corridor outside the door, and she became more and more restless when she listened, so she simply put down her pen to see who it was.

The person who came was a woman with cloves pinching beans and green buds, she hurriedly walked to the bookcase, bowed to her, and said urgently: "Second lady, the eldest prince said that he was looking for you urgently, and he was waiting in the old place." ”

The woman who was called the second lady looked tight, and said secretly: The last time I saw my brother was a month ago, but I came to say goodbye to myself, saying that he and his father had decided to go to the Zhuangzi of Yongping Mansion to take refuge.

The property of the Xue family's Xifu was confiscated, and both her brother and father were dismissed, where was there still money to go so far? She wanted to give them some entanglement, but her brother was stubborn and refused to accept it. She insisted on giving, but her brother had no choice but to say that the people in the second room of the East Mansion had secretly helped them.

The east and west mansions of the Xue family have been on the same page since the time of the first emperor, and they do not give in to each other. The eldest lord Xue Xianyan is dedicated to welcoming the saint and is willing to be a minister, but the second elder brother Xue Jianyan is an upright personality, honest and honest, and the two families live separately. Who knew that the eldest man had no children until forty, and his body was not very good, so he succeeded the second son of the second room, that is, Yiying's father, Xue Wenfu as the heir. The people in the capital thought that this would be an opportunity for the two governments to reconcile, but after the succession, Xue Wenfu never went back to see it, and he still didn't get along with the old man like before.

Some people speculate that the eldest master is determined not to reconcile with his younger brother, so he does not let the heir communicate with the second room, and some people speculate that Xue Wenfu is fascinated by the prosperity of the big house and does not want to return to the original "broken ground"......

Yiying vaguely knew the reason for the matter, but it was not as unbearable as outsiders said, it was just a knot between his father and the ancestor of the second room.

In this disaster, Xifu was confiscated from the family property and dismissed from the official, because the Dongfu has never had contact with it, although it is a member of the same clan, but it is only to let a few masters temporarily idle and accept investigations, but the family property has not moved at all, and the official position has also taken a big turn. Therefore, Dongfu now has the spare power to help them.

In her opinion, the blood relationship is constant, no matter how much she doesn't communicate, the relationship between father and son, mother and son is always there, but it is also trustworthy, so she put her heart down.

The saint is old, and he is afraid that he will do something to change the order overnight, and it is understandable that the elder brother took his father to take refuge. Since the Xue family had an accident, every time my brother came here, he only told her about the situation at home, so that she could rest assured, and never refused to let her aunt and grandmother, who had left the cabinet, take care of her. It won't be for the money to come back today, so what will it be? Could it be that Dongfu is treacherous? No, it shouldn't be, is it because my father is not in good health?

The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, and she hurriedly stood up and said, "Nanping, in this case, you can go with me." "Nanping should be.

The master and servant went out from Siyi, Nanping held the lamp in front of him, and went to Tingyuxuan, a remote place in the house.

As he approached, Nanping stopped and stood aside. Xue Yiying is only the same as peace, Nanping is here to look at the wind, and he and his brother talk about some family things.

Since something happened to the Xue family, Hou Ye did not allow herself to interact with her mother's family, so she had to use the little housekeeping power in her hand to let her brother pretend to be a little maid in the house every few days.

She took a few steps forward, but there was no figure, and she was about to ask Nanping what was going on, but when she turned her head, she saw a corner of familiar clothing revealed behind the rockery of Tingyuxuan. She looked relieved and walked in the direction of the rockery without hesitation.

Before I could get there, I saw another person walking out from behind the rockery. The man was wearing a crow blue and purple auspicious clouds and flowers, and his face was gloomy.

Yi Ying's face turned pale, and thousands of thoughts flashed in his mind, so he knelt down and said, "Master Hou, there will be no next time...... Please let him out of the house, he's just a commoner now......"

Changxin Hou Xu Xian's face became even more gloomy when he heard this, and said: "Do you want to have this kind of shameless thing again? You are really affectionate, whether you can save your own life or not, he will intercede for your concubine first!"

Yiying was stunned, she was just meeting with her brother, where was there any concubine?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Xu Xian was even more angry, and threw the man behind the rockery to the ground. Yi Ying took a look, where was her brother Xue Licheng, who was clearly a white guy who came from nowhere!

The little guy looked frightened and begged: "Sister Lan, no, second lady, the little one is just your plaything on a whim, please ask the Hou Ye for mercy and let me go......"

When Xu Xian heard this, his face became even worse. The name Zhilan, since two years ago, only a few masters in the mansion and Nanping and Jiang Jia around Yiying know it, and the two have always been loyal, so they want to come......

Yi Ying almost closed her breath when she heard it, and said sharply: "Where did you come from, I have never seen you, what kind of person is ......?"

Nanping, who was not far away, ran over in a panic, interrupted her words, knelt down and said: "Master Hou, don't listen to him rambling indiscriminately, he was a good friend of the slave maid, he loves gambling on weekdays, I am afraid that I will lose all the money and be desperate, and I thought that the slave maid was on an errand beside the second lady, and deliberately came to tarnish the reputation of the second lady and begged for some silver." ”

But the little guy laughed and snorted, "This girl, I've never seen you," he paused, "With your stature, you are 108,000 miles away from the second lady, how can you be compared to her." I've seen another one, the little girl with a mole between her eyebrows......"

Is there a mole between her eyebrows? Isn't that her other big girl, Jiang Jia? Xu Xian frowned, and believed it again.

Yiying's mind was chaotic, she and Nanping knew that this was just a frame-up, and if she had this kind of thing, she should naturally clear everything that could be cleared up. But before he could explain it, Nanping was in a hurry to take this matter on his shoulders. She has been in the mansion for so many years, she doesn't know what can be sloppy, what must not be stained, such an act is ostensibly loyal, but this statement is really stupid, really suspicious.

Yiying recalled the ins and outs of this incident: Nanping told her about this meeting, but she didn't see her brother's shadow...... She woke up suddenly, looked at Nanping in disbelief, and said, "Nanping, are you trying to harm me?"

Nanping hadn't opened his mouth yet, but Xu Xian said coldly: "Xue Yiying, you really know how to climb." Nanping has always been loyal to you, helping you to get along with this concubine, and he will not hesitate to bear the blame for you when something happens, you are really kind to this master!"

Sure enough, this is the purpose of Nanping. It doesn't matter whether there is such a thing or not, the key is whether the man in the house believes it or not. Nanping's words left an impression of loyalty to Xu Xian, and when she said this again, Xu Xian would only think that she was unkind.

It's just that she can't believe it, and this condemns herself? Yiying looked at the pillow person next to her for many years in shock, and said, "Master Hou, don't you give the concubine a chance to explain?"

Xu Xian glanced at it coldly and said: "You came here to listen to Yuxuan, so you looked around looking for someone, Nanping looked at the wind for you on the side, and saw Ben Hou looking scared away, not a private meeting with someone, what is it?"

At this time, Yiying didn't dare to hide it anymore, and said the fact that she had quietly met her mother's family. Xu Xian's expression was relieved, if he saw the Xue family, he could be considerate, after all, the Xue family was just a fugitive and a wanderer. His gaze lingered on the three of them for a while, and finally stopped on Yi Ying's suffocating face, eased his tone, and said, "I have to investigate this matter again, you go back to Siyi first, and recently stayed in the room to copy Buddhist scriptures." The implication is to ban her feet.

Yi Ying's expression was a little gloomy, after so many years of love, he refused to fully believe her. Nanping felt a chill: she even told the little guy what birthmark the second lady had, and the little guy must have also told the Hou Ye, but the Hou Ye didn't want to mention it in front of outsiders, and the Hou Ye still believed the second lady, which meant that she was suspected. The second lady has already understood the ins and outs of this matter, and her fate can be imagined......

Nanping hurriedly gestured to the little guy. The little guy took out a thing from his arms, and when Xu Xian saw it, his face suddenly turned blue.

Yi Ying's heart jumped, it was the object of Xu Xian's love gift, the jade plate of the crane title Zhu Guo. This jade plaque is very valuable, not only is it valuable, but it was also given to the old marquis by the first emperor, and the old marquis passed it on to the marquis as a token in the house, and the marquis gave it to her, and the Zhao family didn't even look at it. Now that the Hou Mansion is in power, people outside will also give some face when they see this.

She cherished it very much, never wore it outside, and only kept it carefully in the makeup, but a month ago, in order to let her brother go out of the city smoothly, she gave it to her brother, so that he and his father could pretend to be members of the Xu family, hide people's eyes, and go out of the city. And the private treasury of her property in the courtyard is not under the control of Nanping, which Xu Xian also knows.

This jade plaque is of great significance to the entire Hou Mansion, and now it appears in the hands of a man who is not careful, even if he tells the truth, it will bury a thorn in Xu Xian's heart.

Yiying didn't think about this, she just looked at the jade card blankly, and said secretly: How could the jade card be in the hands of this little guy? She obviously handed it over to her brother herself, where is that brother now, did something happen to her? Her face turned pale, worried about the safety of her father and brother, and she didn't have time to explain for a while.

Xu Xian was a little hesitant, and looked at Yiying's ugly face again, plus today's series of events made him really unhappy, so he was impatient to listen to her explanation. He ordered a few powerful mothers-in-law in the house to send Yiying back, but he wanted to lock her up.

Nanping and the little guy were also locked up separately.

Xu Xian stepped on the moonlight, his mood was extremely heavy, and he paced away to the outer study. When his eyes touched the other side of the Hou Mansion, he suddenly became cold. This time, I don't know if it was Zhao's old trick repeatedly, or if she really betrayed herself?

Fourth, livable.

A woman dressed in a silver-red honeysuckle with yellow honeysuckle pattern is making her bed. Suddenly, there was a sound of hurried footsteps in the corridor outside the door. She frowned, turned around and was about to scold, but what she saw was not some ignorant little girl messing around, but two thick mothers-in-law with thick shoulders and round waists half-carrying their masters into the floor cover.

Jiang Jia was shocked, glared at the two mothers-in-law fiercely, and said urgently: "Presumptuous, how dare you treat the second lady like this!"

The two mothers-in-law glanced at each other when they heard this, and one of them smiled and said: "Miss Jiang Jia, the slave maid is on the order of the Hou Ye, if there is anything offended, please forgive the second lady." The words sounded polite, and the tone and eyes were indeed sarcastic and disdainful that could not be misunderstood. After saying this, the two swaggered out and stood guard outside the door.

Jiang Jia's face changed, those two mothers-in-law were clearly from the Zhao family, what were they doing outside the Siyi Gate, could it be, her eyes widened, she looked at the pale master in disbelief, and said in a lost voice: "Madam, this is ...... House arrest?"
