The fat woman's feet went limp, her body shook, and she slowly fell to the ground.

In an instant, Murong Xinyu had quietly put all the house slaves in Heyang Wangfu's clothes, but saw that the housekeeper and Ruyi were still stupid, just looking at themselves in a daze, hurriedly walked over, slapped one person on the head, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, you guys, are you still reluctant to leave?" ”

Helian looked north, Ruyi woke up like a dream at this time. It's just that Ruyi has gone through a cycle of life and death, ups and downs, and his emotions are sad and joyful, and he wants to leave at this time, but his hands and feet are sore, and he stumbles on the ground.

Fortunately, Helian looked at the north and saw his hands quickly, squatted down and put his arm on his shoulder, half on his back, half on his back, half on his back, and walked forward together.

But hearing a sound of broken footsteps behind her, the second lady rushed up with her coat in her arms, and said while running, "Hurry up, hurry up, don't let others know about this." ”

As he ran, Ruyi's limbs gradually regained their flexibility, and he let the housekeeper put himself down. Look at the second miss, but she is already far ahead, running far ahead with small steps.

Ruyi had something in her heart, and couldn't help but focus on the appearance, seeing that the second lady was far away, she couldn't help but ask, "Butler, look at me, I broke into such a big basket, you say, what should I do?" ”

Helian Wangbei thought seriously for a moment, but felt that there was no good plan, so he sighed and said, "Ruyi, this matter involves the King of Heyang, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to calm down." However, there is no one in the world who can't overcome the hurdle, although you can relax your mind, everything will pass. ”

Ruyi said, "Actually, I'm fine, I'm just worried that the trouble for the second miss is too great, and the other is ......" Speaking of which. It seemed that he had nothing to do with the housekeeper, so it was difficult to continue, so he stopped talking.

Although he didn't finish his words, Helian Wangbei also understood what he meant, thought for a moment, and said, "Ruyi, I know your heart for your wife, even if you are in the Huainan Palace, your heart has never left her. But you are now the escort chosen by the second miss, and your every move is related to the image and status of the second miss in the palace. If you are so half-hearted and look forward to the future, you will not only endanger your own life and affect the prestige of the second lady, but also not the slightest benefit to your wife. ”

"I'm not afraid, butler, you may not know that my wife has always been in poor health and often sick, and if I don't care about her anymore, I don't know who else can help her. Thinking of me Zhou Yun, although I am a lowly person, I am a living person, with the seven emotions and six desires that a normal person should have.

I can't leave my wife alone, and my wife will understand why I'm doing this. Ruyi's eyes flashed, without a trace of hesitation, but at the end, he couldn't help but sigh softly, and said in a low voice, "It's just a matter of my husband and wife, but the second lady is involved, and I really don't want to go." ”

Helian Wangbei said, "Your hardships may make people sympathetic, but people will not change their rules because of sympathy. You must know that you are no longer the Zhou Yun who married into Xiaoxi Village in the past, and you are now the attendant Ruyi of the second lady of Huainan Wangfu. It's an ironclad fact, can you change it? ”

"Don't you do it because you can't change it? Although I sell my life in the palace, what is wrong with taking care of my sick wife once in a while? How did this become a heinous sin? Butler, I don't understand, I really don't understand, what is all this for? How can there be such unreasonable rules? And no one should touch it! Ruyi seemed to be muttering to herself, and seemed to be complaining to someone.

Listening to Ruyi's weeping words, the housekeeper of Huainan Palace's heart couldn't help but feel a layer of waves. However, even though we know that some things do not make sense, what can we do? You are so small, you don't have any power to play with something that powerful. So, the butler just shook his head lightly and didn't say a word.

"Butler, you have a wide range of knowledge, a wide range of worlds, and you are more than many times more than me. Don't even you know the cause and effect of all this? If you know, why are you so reluctant to tell me the truth? ”

Helian Wangbei looked at Ruyi, who was emotionally intense, and seemed to be able to touch his pain at this time with his eyes, he wanted to help, but he lacked strength, so he could only shake his head slowly and said, "Ruyi, I am not as strong as you imagined. A lot of things are far beyond my understanding. Perhaps, this is what people often call fate. We are all worms of fate, trapped in it, disoriented, searching in vain......"

"Hey, what are you talking about?" The second lady of the Murong family turned back at some point, and when she heard the butler's inconsequential words, she couldn't help but interject and said, "Actually, everyone is strong enough, so strong that you can't believe that it is your own strength." It's just that few people can really realize this, so they will bow their heads and admit defeat in the face of life's setbacks. However, they are often unwilling to admit that the reason for this is due to their own cowardice, so they shift all the responsibility to their own imaginary fate. ”

That wishful character was originally extremely unruly, Helian Wangbei originally wanted to use some words to smooth out his edges and corners, but he didn't know that the second lady suddenly jumped out halfway, stirring up the situation and making all his efforts come to naught. But what could he do? She is the master, he is the steward. How can the housekeeper sweep her joy when her master is high-minded and high-spirited?

However, these words sounded to Ruyi, who was full of anger, but it was exactly his own mood. Therefore, he nodded again and again, and secretly made up his mind that no matter what the future holds, he will stick to his persistence.

So, for the second lady of Huainan Palace, who seemed to be lazy, Ruyi immediately added a bit of reverence.

However, to the surprise of the housekeeper and the attendants, after making this high-level statement, the mood of the high-spirited second lady of the palace suddenly took a sharp turn, and in an almost crying voice, she complained to the two family members, "Just now because I ran too fast and in a hurry, I, I actually lost a shoe." ”

The housekeeper and Ruyi looked straight at the feet of the second lady with four eyes at the same time, and sure enough, they saw a slippery little foot, which looked super innocent under the comparison of the embroidered shoes on the other foot.

"You guys help me look around, I must have left it somewhere not far from here." The second lady begged her family to help her with a smile on her face.

Despite the concerted efforts of the family, Murong Xinyu's lost shoe could not be recovered. Fortunately, there are many goods in the city, and everything is available. I didn't have to walk and jump barefoot to meet a shoe buyer.

Putting on the new shoes, the second lady was relaxed. After walking a short distance, you have already arrived under the walls of the Huainan Palace. Because the three of them were embarrassed and unwilling to enter through the gate and make people see jokes, they decided to choose a secluded place to enter over the wall.

With the steward's understanding of the palace, the place was quickly chosen. Murong Xinyu took the lead and swung over the wall lightly. Ruyi didn't have her ability to go up and down at all, but he had his own way, he climbed a big tree with his own hands, and then hung the branches of this tree into the house. stood by the side of the second lady.

Of the three, the butler did not come in. After Murong Xinyu stuffed a thing into Ruyi's hand, he leaned on the wall again, waving his hand to beckon Helian Wangbei to come in.

Ruyi opened the thing stuffed by the second lady and looked at it, but it turned out to be the deed of sale that he was forced to sign by the Heyang Palace, his heart was agitated, and he suddenly felt a chill in his hands and feet.

The housekeeper Helian Wangbei also jumped into the mansion at this time.

The three of them entered the mansion and were about to sneak back to the room, but they heard a clear voice sounding without any expression, "The master and the slave travel together, plus the palace housekeeper, which one of you are this time, although there may not be many people, but it is also lively!" ”

When the three of them heard the sound, the butler and the attendant hurriedly bowed to the ground and said respectfully, "Lord! ”

Murong Xinyu then also knelt down and shouted, "Mother." ”

The person who came was Murong Chengxuan, the prince of Huainan. She paced over slowly, her majestic eyes scanning the three people who sneaked into the mansion over the wall, and finally stopped her gaze on the face of the second daughter, "Well, it seems that the water supply system of the palace can't satisfy your master and servant." However, even if you want to go out to bathe, you don't have to make yourself look like a chicken in the soup. ”

"Mother, you don't know anything." Murong Xinyu hurriedly replied, "The whole thing is like this. Today, Xin'er was bored in the house for a long time and was in a depressed mood, so she took her attendant Ruyi out for a stroll. was walking happily by the river, but who knew that someone was drowning and calling for help. As soon as Xin'er was in a hurry, she pushed Ruyi into the water and ordered him to immediately rescue the drowning man ashore. How do you know......

How do you know that although this Ruyi usually looks smart, he can't swim, and he plops twice in the water, and he is about to sink to the bottom. Xin'er saw that it was not good, so she had to jump into the water by herself and rescue the two of them one after another. ”

"Oh? In this way, it's your mother's fault to blame," Murong Chengxuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile, "Your luck doesn't seem to be bad, even if you sneak out of the house, you can still encounter danger to see righteousness and bravery, and make up for it." ”

King Huainan has always had a strict personality, and he hates opportunism and lies the most. Helian Wangbei and Ruyi have been working in the mansion for many years and know this very well. The two of them had ghosts in their hearts, and they were caught by Murong Chengxuan, and they bowed their heads and waited for punishment, and when they heard the second miss's boastful talk out of nothing, they were suddenly frightened and stupid, plus Wang Jue's words obviously had something in her words, knowing that she was like a mirror in her heart, where could the second miss's words deceive her?

Therefore, neither of them dared to make a sound, but tried their best to lie on the ground, lest the prince be angry and innocent of the pond fish.

Murong Xinyu is such a person, her mother's words implied a sharp edge, and she couldn't hear it. replied immediately, "Today's matter is purely a coincidence, and Xin'er doesn't dare to hope to use this effort to erase the mistake of taking her family out of the house without permission." Leaving the house without permission is an unshirkable responsibility, Xin'er is willing to listen to her mother's punishment. ”

Well, I'm quite brave enough to take responsibility. A hint of approval flashed in Murong Chengxuan's heart, although he knew that she had told a lot of lies, but he couldn't find a flaw for a while, so he had to nod slightly, but turned his head to look at Helian Wangbei, frowned slightly and asked, "Housekeeper, the second lady took her attendants out to travel, but you must not be from her room, but why did you get involved with them again?" And you are honest, at the discretion of Benjue. ”

Helian Wangbei raised his head, not knowing how to answer. Murong Xinyu took over the conversation with a smile and said, "Housekeeper? Xin'er didn't know what he was going to do, so he probably went out on business. However, it was also fortunate that he was so coincidental to get there. ”

King Huainan said quietly, "Oh? ”

"Mother, think about it, Xin'er rescued two people in a row at that time, and she was consuming no strength, and she couldn't climb ashore, at this time, the housekeeper appeared at the right time, reached out at the right time, and pulled Xin'er up from the water, but she completely stepped one of her right feet into the water, and she was embarrassed. Hehe, seriously, as far as this matter is concerned, Xin'er is quite grateful to him. ”

King Huainan looked at the housekeeper carefully, and saw that his right foot was really wet, but his left foot was clean, which was consistent with the second girl's statement. I don't want to delve into it at the moment, it's just that her personality has always been calm and serious, so at the moment, her heart is peaceful, but she can't see any changes on the surface.

Murong Xinyu climbed in front of her, raised her face, pulled the hem of her mother's skirt, and said, "Mother, as the saying goes, the country has national laws, and the family has family rules, Xin'er is willing to admit punishment, but at this time, the responsibility is all on Xin'er alone, and it has nothing to do with the housekeeper and Ruyi, I hope that my mother will not punish them because they helped Xin'er." ”

The housekeeper and Ruyi listened to her trying her best to take the responsibility on herself, but she found an excuse to excuse them, and they were grateful. Ruyi is even more because this series of accidents are all caused by himself, if he is held responsible, he should confess his guilt no matter what, so his heart is surging, and his limbs can't help but tremble with excitement.

Murong Chengxuan was moved by the second daughter's brave words, and was about to reprimand her lightly, but suddenly saw Ruyi, who was convulsive, holding a ball of writing paper in his hand, which looked a little like a contract or something, and immediately swallowed the reprimand back, but said to the attendant, "Ruyi, what are you holding in your hand?" And take it and look at it with Benjue. ”

Helian Wangbei looked blankly at Ruyi's hand, but saw Ruyi's face suddenly changed greatly, and he didn't know what was going on, Murong Xinyu hurriedly got up, walked over with an arrow, snatched the paper ball in Ruyi's hand, and said, "Mother, I can't let you see this thing!" ”
