Chapter 123: Falling into the Well
In the evening in the Anwang Mansion, a terrible cry came from a well in the southwest corner. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"What's going on, let's go, let's go and see!"
The two guards who were patrolling the guard hurriedly ran over when they heard the noise, and found that Mrs. Wen in the house was sitting on the ground and hiding her face and crying.
"Mrs. Wen, what's going on?"
"Brother Guard, save my maid!" Wen Miao saw them appear, and cried with despair on her face: "Donglian accidentally fell into the well, you should quickly find a way to save her!"
The guard heard that someone had fallen into the well and hurried up to check on it. I saw a maid lying in the water with a bloodless face, most of which was out of breath.
"You, call a few more people, and we'll pull that maid up together. The slightly older guard instructed another person to run errands, and then said to Wen Miao, "Lady Wen, that maid is probably dead, how did she fall into the well?"
"I don't know......" Wen Miao stood up tremblingly, and said trembling in the autumn wind: "I just saw that she hadn't gone back for a long time and came to take a look, but I didn't expect this hard-working girl to fall into the well so accidentally, woo woo woo ......"
Afraid that she would faint from excessive grief, the guards hurriedly sent her back to the house.
According to the past, it was not uncommon for one or two people in the palace to have an accident, but it was Dong Lian who died today, which set off a wave to some extent.
"Miao, what's going on?"
When the maids were serving Wen Miao and drinking medicine, Cheng Jingjing pushed the door in a rage and broke in. Everyone hurriedly put down the matter at hand and greeted her respectfully: "The slave maid greets the princess." ”
"Let's all go down," Cheng Jingjing took the medicine bowl in the maid's hand and said to them: "It's good that Mrs. Wen will be taken care of by this princess, there is nothing for you here." ”
The maids did not dare to disobey her orders, and went down one after another.
"Jingjing, why are you here?" Wen Miao asked as she pretended to be puzzled when she saw her worried face.
"Tell me honestly, who did Dong Lian's thing?" asked Cheng Jingjing with a straight face.
"She fell into the well by herself," Wen Miao said sadly, "It's all my fault, if I hadn't asked her to fetch water, she wouldn't have accidentally fallen." She's been shouting that she's not feeling well for the past two days, and I should have found out that I was right. ”
"Did Dong Lian really fall by herself?" Cheng Jingjing looked at her suspiciously.
"Then who do you think did it?" Wen Miao pretended to realize and said, "Do you think it is-"
"Okay, don't say it, be careful that the wall has ears," Cheng Jingjing covered her mouth and said, "Since it wasn't made by that person, I wouldn't have let her have good fruits to eat." Does the prince know about this? Did that hard-working girl really fall into the well by herself?"
"Well, it was the prince who sent someone over to check the corpse," Wen Miao's eyes were filled with sadness: "I heard that Dong Lian was knocked on the back of her head by a stone when she fell, so no one has ever found her in the well." ”
"Don't be too sad," Cheng Jingjing sighed: "It's all fate, but this girl is also fate, and she finally came out of the Qinglou and died unexpectedly." Then I will have her buried so that she can die in peace. ”
"Jingjing, can you do me a favor?" suddenly Wen Miao asked by grabbing her sleeve.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Jingjing said: "You and I are good sisters, you don't need to be so polite, you can say anything I can do." ”
"Too many things have happened recently, I want to go out for a walk alone," Wen Miao said in embarrassment: "It's just that I don't have any status in this palace, I'm afraid that the prince won't agree." You and the prince are the best, can you help me talk to the prince about this...... There is no winter lotus here, and I am really depressed to stay. ”
"Don't worry!" Cheng Jingjing said decisively: "It's just to go out for a walk, the prince will definitely agree." I'll go to him tomorrow and talk to him, and ask him to promise us to go out for a while and come back, anyway, I'm bored in this Anwang Mansion." ”
"It's better to have you with me. ”
Wen Miao hugged her gratefully, but there was a flash of chill in her eyes.
She wanted to take this opportunity to go out alone and find a few trustworthy people to come back, but she didn't expect Cheng Jingjing to be so wary of her. In order not to arouse her suspicion, she could only agree.
In the bedroom with the lights flickering, Huaiyu carefully served Zhuang Hanxue and lay down. Now that their princess is three months pregnant, it is the time when the fetal gas is unstable, and she has to do everything herself, otherwise she will be caught by some villains.
"Princess, are you still sleeping comfortably in this bed, do you want the slave to make it thicker for you?" Huaiyu asked intimately as she put down the curtain.
"That's it," Zhuang Hanxue lay on the bed tiredly, and asked weakly, "I heard that Donglian had an accident a few days ago?"
Huaiyu's face changed, and he knelt on the ground hurriedly: "The princess is angry, the slave is afraid of affecting your fetal gas, so she is hiding this." However, I heard those guards say that Dong Lian fell into the well by herself, and no one intended to kill her. ”
"It's good if you don't," Zhuang Hanxue said slowly: "This princess doesn't have the heart to care about other things now, as long as the little ancestor in this belly is safe." However, Dong Lian's girl was also brought up by this princess since she was a child, and she is also half a daughter, you send someone to send a generous gift to her house, even if this princess compensates them. ”
"The slave maid knows," Donglian got up and wanted to retreat, but suddenly remembered something and said: "Princess, the slave maid heard today that Princess Cheng is going to take Wen Miao out to play in a few days, I wonder if they have any conspiracy?"
"Even the two of them can't make any trouble," Zhuang Hanxue yawned sleepily and waved at her: "Go down, this princess is going to rest." Don't tell me anything important in the future, the little ancestor in this belly is enough for me to toss. ”
"Yes. ”
Huaiyu looked at the bulging hill happily, looking forward to her little master's arrival soon.
The late autumn sun is particularly lovely, and when Cheng Jingjing stands in the crowded Jiangnan water town, she can't help but take off her gauze hat and take a deep breath of fresh air.
"Dodge, dodge. ”
At this time, an ox cart full of fruits and vegetables came in front of her, and Wen Miao hurriedly pulled her aside and complained: "You didn't look at the road, you almost got hit!"
"I'm so happy, I haven't come out for a long time to breathe. ”
Cheng Jingjing smiled, causing passers-by next to her to look sideways. Some of the rough men stared at her even more lustfully, and they almost pounced on her and kidnapped her.
"Jingjing, isn't it okay for us to swagger down the street like this?" Wen Miao looked at those ill-intentioned people and said worriedly: "We don't have a guard with us, it's not good if we are targeted by bad guys." ”
"What are you afraid of," Cheng Jingjing said proudly: "In the past few months, I have refined my swordsmanship, and I have reached a level, and even the prince has praised me." Don't worry, these three-legged cat kung fu people can't bother me. ”
