Chapter 330: The Scapegoat

Thinking that this matter can be related to his daughter, Hu Shilang felt restless, others don't know, he does understand his daughter's heart, and the biggest thing his daughter made trouble was actually to use the county lord of Xiuwen, a lesson from the past, and now when he heard that the county lord of Xiuwen had an accident, and his daughter was next to him, he couldn't help but feel a sudden pain in his head, for fear that this matter was really related to his daughter.

But it was inconvenient to interrogate the mother and daughter, so they could only sulk in the study.

"Sir."

Tongfang Yunniang knocked lightly at the door.

"Come in." Hu Shilang only waited for Yun Niang to come in, and immediately closed the doors and windows and asked, "How is the question?"

Yun Niang said in a low voice: "Master, I asked carefully again, and the little maid who followed the eldest lady said that the situation was too chaotic at that time to see clearly, but after the incident, the county lord of Xiuwen kept shouting that it hurt, and did not say how to fall, the slave maid thought, with the character of the county lord of Xiuwen, if he was really pushed by someone, can he not shout on the spot? It should have nothing to do with the eldest lady."

"You know what." Hu Shilang walked around the room anxiously, "If you really can't see anything clearly, it's a headless case, it's really troublesome.

He is a person in the officialdom, especially knows those tricks to shirk responsibility and frame him, he just received the news, saying that the county lord of Xiuwen will be given marriage to the prince of the fierce clan, and the will has not yet been made, and now that this kind of thing has happened, the people of Ruicheng Wangfu will definitely try their best to shirk their responsibilities, and if they are injured by Xiuwen County, they will be suspected of escaping from marriage, and the holy thunder will be angry Ruicheng Wangfu will inevitably be severely punished, but if it is pushed down by other ladies, Ruicheng Wangfu will not be responsible.

Although the county lord of Xiuwen didn't say anything on the spot, it may be that she is young and didn't expect it for a while, and someone will naturally remind her when she returns home.

Although he was in a hurry, Hu Shilang couldn't do anything for a while, and there was no one who had the heart to inquire about more news, usually Mrs. Hu was responsible for this kind of thing, but now Mrs. Hu is no longer the usual dignified lady, she is completely an irrational shrew, and several other concubines are not in harmony with the big house.

Hu Shilang couldn't think of a solution after thinking about it, and was extremely upset, at this time Yun Niang was a little nervous and looked out frequently.

"What are you worried about?" Hu Shilang's anger suddenly rushed to Yun Niang.

"Forgiveness of sins, sir." Yun Niang pretended to be calm, but there was panic on her face that she couldn't hide, "The slave can't stay alone in the study with you for too long."

"What?" Hu Shilang thought it was incredible.This Yun Niang was his roommate, even if the two of them slept in the same bed normally, why couldn't they stay in the same room with him alone?However, he knew the crux of the problem after a little thought, and couldn't help but curse in his heart.

"Master......" Yun Niang looked at Hu Shilang with pitiful eyes.

"Go down." Hu Shilang waved his hand irritably.

Yun Niang was afraid that he would change his mind, so she hurriedly ran as fast as she could.

Otherwise, the one he had worked so hard to get in his life would be ruined, and a touch of ruthlessness flashed on Hu Shilang's face.

……

Su Yiqing lay on the beauty couch and closed her eyes to recuperate, while listening to the green vine report on the movements in the circle of ladies in the past two days.

"Princess, this is roughly the case with all kinds of rumors outside now." Green vine hangs his hand to report.

Su Yiqing didn't make a sound, it seemed that she was asleep, but Lu Teng knew that she wasn't asleep, and as a good subordinate, she could easily judge whether the master was asleep.

After a while, Su Yiqing slowly opened her eyes and glanced at the fine bone teacup on the table.

Lu Teng immediately went to the small tea room next to him to make a cup of Lu'an melon slice tea and brought it to Su Yiqing.

Su Yiqing picked up the teacup and gently dialed the tea leaves on the door with the tea lid, she doesn't like to drink this kind of tea, generally speaking, she likes to drink simple flower tea, just to try to avoid being too similar to her before, some small details will be changed, the days of being out, what rough food has not been eaten, these precious good teas are not difficult to eat, dialed for a while, she took a sip lightly, looked at the green vine and asked, "Where were you from before?"

Before Green Vine spoke, she added, "If you don't want to say it, you can not say it, many maids have poor backgrounds, and some sad past events don't want to be mentioned, so I just ask casually."

"Princess, the slave doesn't know where the slave is from." Green vine replied respectfully, "The slave stayed in the Salesian Home until she was four years old, and the slave and maid vaguely remember that because there was no money, the Salesian Home could not be run, and the orphans in the courtyard were adopted by themselves...... It's just that not everyone has the luck of being adopted, the slave was bought away by the servant of a salt merchant, but the family was very harsh on people, and then the enemy came to seek revenge, the master was killed, the house was burned, and the next people scattered, the slave and the maid became beggars on the streets, and the little beggars on the street were not that easy to do, at that time the slave was only six years old, because of the weakness, it was easy to be pitied, and when they wanted more money, they were often bullied by other little beggars, and they were injured and lay on the ground bleeding, Fortunately, a beggar mother-in-law found some herbs to help apply it, so she picked up a life, and then the slave and maid followed the beggar mother-in-law to beg and take care of each other, after two years, the beggar mother-in-law was old, and fell ill after a rain, and soon died of illness without money to see the doctor, and the slave couldn't bear to be thrown into the mass grave by a broken mat, so she learned to sell herself under the overpass, and wanted to scrape together a few dollars for the mother-in-law to be buried, and then she was fortunate to be favored by the steward of the palace and bought it back."

Another poor man, Su Yiqing sighed and asked again, "How old were you at that time?"

Green Vine replied, "Eight years old."

Eight years old. [,!],Su Yiqing repeated, the eight-year-old age is not big, but it is not small, the dignified palace doesn't like to buy this kind of subordinate, the identity is a little unknown, especially when they also cultivate green vines as henchmen, the requirements are stricter, think for a while, and then ask, "What about after you were bought back by the steward?"

"The princess forgives her sins, can this slave not say it?" Green Vine said very frankly, "The slave has had a hard time in those years, and I don't want to mention it again."

"Of course, I just said it, not reluctantly." Su Yiqing can actually imagine that in her previous life, she saw in some TV novels that the methods of training agents and secret agents were extremely cruel.

"Princess, this is all the slave maid willingly." Seeing the pity in Su Yiqing's eyes, Green Vine explained, "I want a little beggar on the street like a slave maid, and it is my daughter's family, if it weren't for such an opportunity, even if I didn't starve to death on the street, I would have fallen into a dirty land, and now the slave maid can be the big maid in front of the princess, and she is better off than ordinary rich ladies, and the slave maid feels very lucky, and the hardships she has endured before are worth it."

"Really?" Su Yiqing said this casually, and didn't believe it very much, she remembered Xin'er, she never knew Xin'er's past experience, and she thought that it might be similar to this green vine, when she was a child, she couldn't help but look forward to the future hardships, and in the end she died tragically in a foreign country, even if the green vine was sincere at this moment, she was just a tool of the palace, this is different from Yuemian, Liu'er, they are different, what her fate is not certain, and now what gratitude and the like are fake.

"Princess, you are a good person, and the slave maid is really lucky to be able to follow the princess." Green Vine said something like this again.

Su Yiqing didn't answer, sometimes she said too much, but it seemed fake, and now she didn't believe what Lu Teng said, even if this girl was sincere at the moment, she might not think so the next moment.

Xin'er has always said that she is a good person, but when she is chased by robbers and ruthlessly pushed her out of the carriage, can she still hold on to such a belief?

At this time, a little maid outside the door whispered, "Princess, Miss Ning is outside, and she wants to come in and say hello to the princess."

"Nope." Su Yiqing said impatiently, she was not in the mood to see this woman pretending to be too lazy to deal with her.

The little maid took the order and left, and after a while she heard the sound of soft footsteps, and it seemed that the little maid had come in again.

Su Yiqing instructed Lu Teng, "If it's about Ning Ya'er again, you go and send her, don't hang around in front of me if there's nothing to do."

"Yes!" said Midori saluted, taking a few steps back before turning to go out.

Outside, Ning Ya'er was dressed in a light green dress, dressed extremely plainly, standing coquettishly outside, and her grandmother Jian Mama was accompanying her.

As soon as she saw the stern big girl beside the princess come out, Ning Ya'er couldn't help but shrink, holding a coquettish smile: "This sister, I just want to say goodbye to the princess, make amends, and trouble my sister to report it."

Green vine said lightly: "Miss Ning has a heart, the princess is busy, please be safe, Miss Ning, please go back."

"No, I really just want to say goodbye, I ...... I have something to say to the princess." Ning Ya'er begged bitterly.

"If you have anything to say, say it to the slave and the maid, and the slave and the maid will definitely tell you." Green Vine said coldly.

"This ......" Ning Ya'er was stunned.

Green Vine made a face and reprimanded, "Miss Ning, don't blame the slave and maid, you are also from the scholarly family, do you know the rules? What kind of identity is the princess, managing a huge palace, busy with affairs, you can't say that you can ask for peace, just talk, there are so many people up and down the palace, and there are so many relatives and friends, if you want to say that everyone wants to ask the princess for peace, and if you want to gossip, you can gossip, so is the princess busy? help, or don't make trouble for the princess, let the princess put down the work of the full house, Don't you feel ashamed just to let you say goodbye?"
