Chapter 25: The Heart of Defense
Mu Yun stood behind Li Shuci and looked at Hanshan lightly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info What a vicious heart, would use this method to murder a three-year-old child! If it weren't for Li Shuci telling her to pay attention to the actions of the Flashy Garden, that cute little child would have been burned through the stomach and intestines by caustic soda!
"Hanshan, do you know what happened to the evil slave who murdered his master?"
Hanshan only heard a faint emotionless voice above his head, as cold and clear as the frozen surface of a lake in winter. Her body that was slumped on the ground suddenly straightened, and she threw herself at Li Shuci's feet, and said in a hoarse voice: "Fifth girl, slave maid...... The slave doesn't know, the slave doesn't know anything......"
Mu Yun kicked Hanshan away, preventing her from touching Li Shuci, and said indignantly: "You don't know, don't you know why I asked you to drink that bowl of soup just now, and you won't drink it even if you die?"
Hanshan was frightened and couldn't say anything to justify, only kowtowed again and again: "Madam, five girls, slaves and maids are in trouble...... The slave is forced to do so, please, please......"
"Heh, beg me, what?!Please let you go?, you can come and poison a three-year-old child as a last resort?!" Li Shuci's dark eyes were full of cruelty. Hanshan is Yao's personal girl, and in her previous life, when she got married, she made her a dowry girl and brought her to the Shen Mansion. It was she who, for her own selfishness, framed Li Shuci and tricked her into giving her brother a soup with caustic soda with her own hands.
At that time, although Li Xiu had grown up a lot, he was still a child. Li Shuci thought that after she returned, things might change, and he didn't dare to take it lightly, so that the few people around him who could be trusted kept an eye on the people around her grandmother, father, mother, and younger brother.
As expected, the last time the Shen family failed, they still refused to let go, they wanted to tie the Li family to the Shen family's boat, and if they obeyed, they had to defeat the Li family's descendants first. The Shen family wanted to break down the third room mentally, but Li Shuci couldn't let them get their wish!
When Yao heard Li Shuci's words, he was shocked and dropped the tea cup in his hand, "Ah Ci, what are you talking about?!"
Hanshan heard Yao's question, and turned to pounce in front of Yao, but Mu Yun stopped her and refused to let her approach Yao.
The soup that Hanshan was going to feed Li Xiu before was poured into her own stomach by Mu Yun. Although she desperately vomited a lot, she was already in unbearable pain at this time, and struggled to climb in front of Li Shuci: "Fifth girl, Hanshan is in trouble...... Please save me, I don't want to die. ”
Li Shuci sneered, "If you don't want to die, you can let others die, what is the reason?"
"Do you think your lover will be waiting for you outside the West City Gate?" Li Shuci's words made Hanshan stunned and speechless, she thought that no one would know.
Mu Yun said: "He was already ready to take the money and leave you and escape." ”
Hanshan's eyes widened in disbelief, and he muttered in despair, "How do you know...... His family is in trouble, and he wants to use money to save his life, and he said that the matter will be solved, and the rest of the money will redeem me and marry me...... I know what kind of person he is! He can't leave me!"
Yao Shi said sadly when he heard this: "Hanshan, you have followed me for so many years, if you want to leave the house, come and tell me directly, how can I give you a dowry and marry you well, but you actually want to murder my child for money!"
A trace of remorse appeared on Hanshan's face, but he turned into confusion and panic, looked at Li Shuci and Mu Yun back and forth, and said sharply: "I'm all for him, he won't leave me, you lie to me!
Li Shuci looked at her coldly and didn't say a word. Hanshan trembled violently, the expression on his face became more and more painful, and he pleaded in a trembling voice: "Please...... I beg the girl to spare my life......"
Li Shuci's dark eyes glanced at her lightly, "Why should I spare your life?"
Hanshan blocked his throat in one breath and looked at Li Shuci in a daze. Suddenly, his face was frightened, as if he had foreseen his death, he struggled to climb in front of Li Shuci, and begged with all his strength to hold on to the last glimmer of hope: "Fifth girl, I will tell you everything, I will tell you the murderer!"
Li Shuci no longer looked at her, and said indifferently: "You know, I already knew." ”
She knew it in her last life!
The person in Hanshankou, the family is very difficult, but it is also the masterpiece of the Shen Mansion, and then the Shen Mansion used money to lure him to Hanshan, but the two of them didn't know that the person who bought the murder was the Shen family.
Mu Yun stepped forward and tied her up, stuffing the hemp core in her mouth. "Let's go, you'll soon be able to see the person you love in the prison!"
Hanshan was poured with caustic soda water by Muyun and thrown into the prison, but it was only a few days of torment, and it was still a dead end. She is not a bodhisattva, she will not be soft on the enemy, she wants Hanshan to taste this kind of slow intestine through the stomach and wait for death. Moreover, she didn't want to kill in front of her mother.
Seeing that Li Shuci had dealt with Mu Yun cleanly, Yao stepped forward and asked, "Ah Ci, what the hell is going on?"
Of course, Li Shuci couldn't tell it all, "Mother, a few days ago, Qingge found out that Hanshan secretly had close contact with a man outside the house, so he fell in love. As a result, it was found that someone was paying for the murderer. ”
"What?!" Yao's eyes widened, "How is this possible? Your father is indifferent and has never offended anyone in the court." Your grandfather ......"
"Mother, people's hearts are complicated, who can guarantee that you can exchange your life for peace without fighting or grabbing? What's more, the relationship between the various factions in the imperial court is complicated, and my grandfather, as the right man of the court, is already responsible for countless cadres, isn't the Li Mansion one? Father can stay out of the matter?" Li Shuci's sentences were bloody, and the Yao family was dumbfounded, she was born in Wuning Houfu, and she didn't understand the affairs of the court at all, but her nature was simple, so she didn't think about it.
"Mother, you can't have the heart to hurt people, you can't have the heart to prevent people, Li Mansion only has a father, but the father is not the eldest son, I believe you must know better than me. Li Shuci believes that with a little explanation, his mother can understand it in her heart.
Even if we can't change the minds of our fathers and mothers now, and let them take the initiative to meet the enemy, at least we should let them be on guard.
"Your grandmother also said this, but I always felt that I was too worried. Yao Shi looked at the daughter in front of him in a daze, but gave birth to a sense of trance, once upon a time, Mrs. Yu also said this to her, but she took it as a deaf ear. However, Li Shuci, who was obviously still a girl in front of her, her daughter, with dark eyes and a cold look, said these words, and she felt convinced for no reason, "Well, my mother knows, and I will talk to your father about it." ”
Li Shuci breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't confront the Shen family head-on now, but she could eat the chess pieces laid by the Shen family one bite at a time. However, she hopes that the people around her will be aware of the danger and be vigilant at all times. Otherwise, although she has grasped some opportunities, the world is impermanent, and changes are impermanent.
If it weren't for today's incident being discovered by Mu Yun in advance, what would happen to her younger brother Li Xiu now?!
She peeled back and forth the things she could remember, in the conspiracy designed by the Shen family, grandmother was the key, if grandmother was good, everything behind it would not be able to continue. The most important thing for Li Shuning now is to guard her grandmother, she wants to see who is trying to hide so deeply to hurt her grandmother!
Grandmother is a decent person and disdains to do some tricks that hurt nature and reason, but she can't hide everything from her eyes. Shen Jiayi and Aunt Shen help each other, if Shen Jiayi enters the palace, it will not have a small impact on the Li family, and grandmother should also know, it is impossible not to be defenseless, but it is still succeeded, and it is a joke to get sick suddenly! This thing is done so secretly, it must be the person next to the grandmother, but who is it?
The girls and grandmothers around her grandmother are all trustworthy people who can get close, Li Shuning has looked at it again and again during this time, and still can't think of what the problem is? Or something she ignored.
In late August, the dog days came to an end, and the days in Beijing were getting cooler and cooler. Shen Hong recuperated in the Shen family for nearly half a month, and was "finally" able to climb off the bed, and the big bag and small wraps were personally carried by Lao Shangshu to the door to confess the guilt.
Mu Yun stared at Li Shuci, the flower picker on the locust tree, bored, for fear that she would fall from the locust tree unsteadily. Now Li Shuci not only has far-sighted eyes and ears to hear all directions, but also feels light, and retreats the girl's mother-in-law, and asks Mu Yun to teach her to climb trees, Mu Yun said to Qingge speechlessly: "It's not enough to describe our five girls!"
Qingge knew that Mu Yun talked a lot, and he felt uncomfortable if he didn't speak for a while, but he wasn't actually asking himself, but he was complaining spontaneously. So she remained silent, and left her alone to mutter, "Girl, what do you say would have happened if Madame knew that you had tied your skirt around your waist and jumped up and down the tree?"
Qingge laughed when she heard this, she had followed the girl since she was a child, and she knew that Li Shuci was not a lady inside. Climbing a tree is not a big deal, Li Shuci has been restless since he was a child. whispered in Mu Yun's ear: "The girl was just sick and wilted for a while a while ago, and now that she is in good health, she naturally wants to restore her nature." ”
In the past, it was Qingque who followed the girl crazy, and she cleaned up the aftermath. Now the blue finch has been replaced by Muyun. The difference is that now I know that I carry people on my back!
"With our girl's talent, coupled with this fat courage, if one day I become a master of the rivers and lakes, I won't feel strange at all!" Mu Yun rolled her eyes and said, this is her habitual action.
The green pigeon nodded approvingly.
There is a very tall and stout old locust tree in the northwest corner of Li Shuci's courtyard, the flowers are in full bloom at this time, the snow-white locust flowers overlap and hang on the branches, the petals are elegant arc-shaped, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance.
She was picking locust flowers among the trees, and asked Mrs. Wang to make some locust cakes at night. It's not that she has to pick these acacia flowers herself, but she feels that she feels very light as a swallow, and she is fresh in the past two days, "You reminded me that when you go out tomorrow, you go and make me a few sets of men's clothes." ”
After thinking about it, he added, "It's better to make two or three more sets of night clothes." ”
When Mu Yun heard the "night clothes", he exclaimed: "Girl, what bad idea do you have again!"
