Although Yingluo was very uncomfortable and depressed in her heart, she was inevitably angry and hated Qin Yan, but she also knew that now was not the time to be uncomfortable.

She only lay down for a while and then sat up, got out of bed and personally helped Brother Miao, who was paralyzed on the ground, and smiled at her comfortingly: "I'm fine, silly girl, don't be afraid." ”

Fang Yingluo was lying on the bed, Brother Miao couldn't see her face clearly, this time I saw Yingluo's sideburns scattered, her eyes were slightly red, and more importantly, her lips were red and slightly swollen, and there was a blood mark on her lower lip, which looked extremely sad, and she was bullied at a glance, Brother Miao didn't feel trembling, and tears welled up in her eyes, and said: "Girl, how is this good, the girl is the daughter of the official family, how can the prince of King Jing be so blind, the girl is engaged, how can he treat the girl like this, if this is known, Didn't you take the girl's life for life......"

Yingluo smiled bitterly, patted Brother Miao's hand, and said: "Silly girl, this royal law is tailor-made for the emperor's relatives and relatives, and is only used to restrain the subjects. Okay, I'm really fine, help me clean up, I'm afraid that the old lady will come to call someone for a while, and it will be too late. ”

Brother Miao hurriedly wiped his tears, pulled Yingluo to sit in front of the dresser, hurriedly straightened Yingluo's hair again, and covered her face a little. As soon as it was tidied up, Mother Yun and Shuangxing entered the house.

The Praetorian Guards were defending in the courtyard, and Yingluo ordered Mother Yun and Shuang Xing to take the maids and women of Qiushui Garden to search the houses.

Then the Praetorian Guards rushed in, but they controlled everyone, and Yun Mama and the others shrank in the room and didn't dare to make a sound or come out. But I pricked up my ears to listen to the movement, but I knew that someone had entered the west wing of the five girls here, and Mother Yun was in a hurry, but the Praetorian Guards were blocked outside the door and couldn't get out at all.

Just after the Praetorian Guards withdrew, the mother-in-law and maids in the house waited for a while and rushed out when they saw that there was really nothing to do, and Yun's mother hurriedly returned to the house.

At this moment, seeing Yingluo sitting in front of the dresser, although her face was a little pale, her expression was extremely calm, and her lips were a little red and swollen with blood marks, Mother Yun exclaimed: "What's wrong with the girl?" ”

Yingluo said with a smile: "When the general heard the movement behind him, he suspected that the assassin was hiding in this house, so he rushed in. ”

Mother Yun breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and Shuang Xing also said nervously, "Did the assassin really come to the girl's room?" The girl is really okay, right? She said, her gaze wandering around the room.

Yingluo smiled and said: "The assassins are hiding in places where there are few people, just now you are all in this house, where does he dare to hide here, the general rushed in and glanced at it and jumped out of the back window of the bright room, didn't someone shout to catch the assassin in the back garden, most likely the general found some clues and traced the past." ”

Mother Yun was relieved to hear that there was him, patted her chest, and said, "It's a good scare for us, thanks to this person, otherwise something might happen to such a Beiyao villain hiding in the mansion." It's just that such a thing happened today, and now it ruined the girl's recruitment out of thin air, which is unlucky. ”

Shuangxing's eyes rolled, and she looked around the room again, and saw that there was nothing wrong in the house, that is, the five girls had nothing wrong except for the blood stain on their lips, so they also believed Yingluo's words.

But at this moment, there was a sound of talking outside, and after a while, Jiao'er's voice sounded outside the house, and said, "Girl, the little maid in the old lady's courtyard came over and asked the girls to go to the old lady." ”

Hearing this, Yingluo looked at the mirror again, and saw that everything was in order, so she stood up. When she arrived at the porch, Su Yingzi also came out of the house, and looked at Yingluo, Yingluo smiled and said, "Seventh sister was not frightened, right?" ”

Su Yingzi smiled and stepped forward to shake Yingluo's hand, and said, "Fang Cai is really scared to death, there are Beiyao assassins at the feet of the Son of Heaven to commit murder, but fortunately, they are all caught." My heart is still beating so hard this time, and I think the fifth sister is not scared. ”

Yingluo smiled and squeezed Su Yingzi's hand, and said, "Our inner house girl's family, how can we ever encounter such a thing, it is normal to be frightened." ”

The two of them talked and went to the old lady's Fulu Courtyard, and the maids tacitly moved away and followed and served.

After passing the verandah, Su Yingzi turned her head to look at Yingluo's lips, and said worriedly: "Fifth sister is okay, right?" ”

On Sitong Street that day, Yingluo pulled the prince of King Jing into the alley, at that time, Su Yingzi felt that the prince of King Jing was especially following Yingluo, and guessed that there were only men and women between the two, and later heard that Yingluo decided to eat Chi Jingyi, Su Yingzi was still very puzzled for a while, and saw that Yingluo seemed to like this family affair very much, so she didn't think much about it.

I don't want to make such a fuss today, Qin Yan came to Qiushui Courtyard in person, how could Su Yingzi not understand what was going on in between?

Yingluo saw that she took the initiative to mention it, so she no longer hid it, smiled bitterly, and shook her head.

Su Yingzi tightened Yingluo's hand and said, "Now that the fifth sister is engaged, how can that person still ...... Today is always the gift of the fifth sister's levy, and now it is like this, what if it makes the fifth sister suspicious. ”

Yingluo saw that Su Yingzi was really worried about herself, and she didn't feel a little warm in her heart, and said: "The pure one is self-purifying, if he is suspicious of me and wants to withdraw from me, I will not have half a complaint." ”

Su Yingzi was stunned for a moment, sighed, and said: "Fifth sister thinks clearly, Young Master Chi is in charge of the huge family business at a young age, and he must be a person with a firm heart, how can he listen to the wind and rain and believe in gossip, let alone suspect his fiancée because of some nonsensical things." ”

Yingluo smiled and said no more, but Su Yingzi said: "My aunt taught me since I was a child that I would rather be a poor wife than a noble concubine, and my aunt was ruined by the word concubine in her life, and she was trapped every day in the small courtyard and pretended to be sick for half her life. Chi Dagongzi values the fifth sister, such a good family business, how comfortable my sister is to marry in the past, I am really happy for the fifth sister, I only hope that there will be a good family business in the future. As long as that person treats me in the future, I have the heart of the eldest son Chi to treat half of the fifth sister, and I am also content. ”

Yingluo didn't know what Su Yingzi meant, she was saying that no matter how good Qin Yan was, she couldn't marry herself as a concubine, but Chi Jingyi was real, reminding herself that she would rather be a poor wife, not a noble concubine, and don't be confused.

Although Yingluo didn't need Su Yingzi's reminder, she also accepted her affection, shook Su Yingzi's hand back with a smile, and said: "Seventh sister rest assured, Seventh Sister is such a good heart, in the future, my seventh brother-in-law will be very important, and when the time comes, when the seventh sister looks back, she will not envy my sister and me." ”

Su Yingzi couldn't help blushing slightly, the two of them talked, and soon arrived at Fulu Courtyard.

When they arrived, Su Yingying and the others, who lived closer, had already arrived, and the old lady looked very unenergetic, and her face was very unsightly, as if she was seriously ill. Several ladies and girls on the side also looked palpitating, and Su Yingying was sitting on the edge of Luohan's bed and personally serving the old lady with the decoction.

Yingluo and the two stepped forward to salute, Ma had just finished using up the decoction, Su Yingying wiped the corners of the old lady's lips with a handkerchief, and the old lady looked at Yingluo and said, "I heard that the assassin stayed near the Qiushui Courtyard, and the Praetorian Guards also entered the Qiushui Courtyard, have you two ever had a problem?" ”

Yingluo blessed her body and said, "Grandmother Lao is worried, and the granddaughters are just a little frightened, and now they are fine." ”

Su Yingzi also said that there was nothing to do, and the Ma family stared at Yingluo and said, "The prince of King Jing entered your house?" ”

Yingluo's heart tightened unconsciously, she looked up at the old lady in a little confusion and surprise, and replied: "The granddaughter didn't know, the granddaughter was scared at the time, and heard someone screaming and found that there were bloodstains, and then it seemed that a Praetorian Guard rushed into the house, and the granddaughter was so frightened that she hid in the inner room and didn't dare to move a little, nor did she dare to look up, so she knew that the Praetorian Guard entered the house and glanced twice before jumping out of the back window, and the granddaughter didn't know if that person was the prince of King Jing." ”

As soon as the old lady said this, everyone's eyes fell on Yingluo, and when they saw her look surprised, their eyes were full of surprise and fear, and they didn't seem to be fake at all, so they withdrew their gaze one after another.

Su Yingying, who was sitting on the side, exclaimed: "Ah, what's wrong with the fifth sister's mouth?" How did it break? ”

Yingluo has been hanging her head slightly since she came in, and she raised her head slightly when she answered the old lady's words, but she didn't think that Su Yingying's eyes were poisonous, she was surprised, and suddenly everyone's eyes returned to Yingluo.

Yingluo was not surprised, only raised her head and said with some fear: "I heard that the assassin entered the Qiushui Courtyard and was scared, and I didn't dare to shout loudly, so I bit my lip without noticing it for a while, and made the fourth sister smile." ”

When she came out, she covered her lips with fat powder slightly, and after a while, her lips were no longer red and swollen, only the blood stains were still a little conspicuous, and the old lady took a closer look, and then ordered Songzhi to fetch a plaster to apply to Yingluo.

Yingluo stood aside after thanking her, but at this time, Mama Duan came in and said, "Old lady, I heard that the old lady is not in good health, and Young Master Chi wants to come over to visit the patient, and the third master has already brought Young Master Chi over this time." ”

When everyone heard this, they all stared at Yingluo again, and the fourth lady Xiao Liu smiled and quipped: "Ouch, this young master Chi can see that he has a heart, I'm afraid that he is worried about our little five, so I have to come and see it in person, the fifth girl has a husband like this, and she will be blessed in the future." ”

What Xiao Liu said, everyone naturally understood, and when they looked at Yingluo for a while, they couldn't help but feel a little envious and jealous.

It is also true that such a thing happened today, Chi Jingyi not only did not anger Yingluo for this, nor did he leave the Hou Mansion to avoid the disaster, but stayed until now.

This heart is indeed very rare.

Yingluo was stared at by everyone's complicated eyes, Rao is thick-skinned, and this time she also turned red, and a warm current surged in her heart.

The old lady smiled and said to Xiao Liu: "Okay, you are such a niece who is an aunt, what are you talking about." ”

Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Isn't my daughter-in-law also happy for her fifth niece." ”

The eldest lady Bai instructed the maid: "Go and put up the screen." ”

The maid placed the screen, and Yingluo also moved behind the screen with all the girls.

Su Yingyu glanced at Yingluo, and said with a low smile: "I remember that when the eldest sister and the second sister were married, the two brothers-in-law went to the mansion to show their grandmother first, but the fifth sister was in a hurry, we don't know what the fifth brother-in-law looks like, I heard the maids say that the fifth brother-in-law is handsome and has a unique demeanor, and we have to open our eyes for a while to look at the fifth sister." ”

Yingluo was teased by her, pretending to be embarrassed and raised her hand to pinch Su Yingyu's face, and there was a sound of footsteps outside while speaking, followed by the sound of the maid's announcement, the door curtain was opened, the light and shadow flickered, and I saw a few people entering the house.

At the head was Su Dinggong, the prince who had just returned home in a brown brocade robe, Su Dingwen, the second master, and the fourth master were also together, and Chi Jingyi walked beside Su Dingwen.

To say that although Su Dingwen is not a good person, he is also dignified, although he is middle-aged, he is also personable, and full of poetry and books, but he is the most eye-catching among the masters of the Hou Mansion. On weekdays, when a few old men come to greet the old lady, everyone's eyes will involuntarily be attracted by Su Dingwen first.

But today, the girls looked at it, and they ignored Su Dingwen very lightly, and they were all attracted by the beautiful figure like the moon next to Su Dingwen at a glance.

Chi Jingyi is wearing a festive dark red cloud brocade robe today, with a dark belt around his waist, he was originally handsome and outstanding, and he was dressed plainly on weekdays, and he looked slightly weak.

Men wearing red will look flying and wanton, but this red dress on him has two more unique leisurely and free and easy, his steps are calm, his air is elegant, his figure is like a Zhilan jade tree, walking into the house, it seems to make the whole room a little brighter.

It makes people give birth to a bright moon into their arms, and the breeze sends a refreshing feeling. Yingluo could feel that Su Yingying's breathing next to her had paused for a moment, and Chi Jingyi on the other side of the screen had already greeted the old lady.

The old lady gave a seat, greeted two sentences, Chi Jingyi said: "The younger generation ordered the next person to go to Yunhetang to take two old ginseng plants, ginseng can greatly replenish vitality, solid detachment, can cure labor injuries and weakness, and can calm the nerves and resist labor, the old lady's sick body is procrastinating, presumably it is caused by the worry and fatigue of the younger generation for the family day and night, and today I am frightened, I should use some ginseng soup to replenish the vitality, the old lady is healthy, and it is the blessing of the descendants." ”

Chi Jing said nothing, raised his hand slightly, and happily sent a lacquered red sandalwood long box, and the old lady smiled kindly and said, "You have a heart." ”

She motioned for Mama Duan to step forward and take the box, Mama Duan opened the box with a smile, and said unexpectedly: "Oh, this ginseng has really grown into a fine, old lady, please take a look." ”

She said and presented the open box forward, the old lady looked at it and saw that the box was spread out with a bright red flannel lining, and there were two old ginsengs of similar quality lying on them, the size was very large, the reed head was long, the reed bowl was dense on all sides, the branch was large, the reed was long, the skin was fine, the color was tender yellow, the lines were fine and full, and it looked like it was not a hundred years, and it was not as complete as it looked, and it was rare that the two mountain ginseng were like two bearded birthday stars, and they really became a spirit.

Rao is old lady has seen good things in her life, and she can't help but be taken aback at this moment, and said: "This kind of ginseng can be met but not sought, it is a life-saving treasure, there is no price, even if you take one out, you can also make it an heirloom, this is too valuable, the Chi family brother is too polite, the old woman is just a common symptom, where to use such a good old ginseng, this is not to be accepted." ”

Good ginseng is indeed priceless, and some people treasure it and keep it for life-saving purposes, where will it be sold, so there is no ginseng of such quality in the Hou Mansion, not to mention that Chi Jingyi gave it away.

The old lady was really a little surprised, but Chi Jingyi smiled soothingly, got up and said: "The old lady is polite to the younger generation if she doesn't accept the party, the younger generation has already married the fifth girl, to say a word of courtesy, the younger generation is now the grandson-in-law of the old lady, and it is natural to respect the old lady." ”

The old lady saw that Chi Jingyi's posture was calm, her posture was calm, her character was handsome, and she shot so extraordinary, such a character was really no worse than the noble son of the royal family, and it was a little unpleasant for a while.

She felt sorry in her heart, but her face smiled like a flower, and she nodded in praise again and again.

Behind the screen, Su Yingzi saw Chi Jingyi like this, but she couldn't help but hit Yingluo with her arm with envy, and said in a suppressed voice: "Fifth sister, that mountain ginseng must have been brought by Prince Chi when he saw the Praetorian Guards besieging the mansion, and he specially asked people to go back and get it. ”

Su Ying's purple vocal cords are envious, and Su Yingyu and Su Yingxue sisters are even more so, although they are far away and can't see the mountain ginseng in the box, it is expected that it can make Mama Duan scream in surprise, and the old lady will be priceless, but the eldest prince Chi said that he would take it out.

It can be seen that the Chi family is rich and noisy, and it is enough to see the Chi eldest son's heart for Yingluo. It is rare that such a lover has such a lover's appearance and character, how can Yingluo, a three-room concubine, be able to find such a good husband as a husband.

The two of them were inevitably a little jealous in their hearts, but they only looked at Yingluo sourly and didn't say much.

However, Su Yingying looked at Chi Jingyi outside, and the hand hanging by her side couldn't help but shake it, and her heart was extremely uncomfortable.

She and this concubine in the third room seem to be natural enemies, she doesn't like Su Yingluo, and she can't wait for her to marry a clay-legged wife, but now Yingluo has such a good family affair, Su Yingying is really unwilling.

What she admires most is a man who is as gentle as jade and has a good demeanor, which is like Chi Jingyi. Even if she doesn't look down on Chi Jingyi's identity as the son of a businessman, she doesn't want such an outstanding man to cheapen Yingluo.

Lowering her eyes, Su Yingying couldn't help but take two steps back slightly while people were unprepared, gave a look at the big girl Dongmei, and wrote a few words in Dongmei's palm.

Dongmei understood the meaning, looked at Yingluo, her eyes flashed with calculative coldness, nodded at Su Yingying, turned around and quietly retreated.

Yingluo knew very well in her heart that Chi Jingyi had to come to the old lady to visit the sick at this time, and made a special trip to get two priceless old ginseng, all to calm his heart, and also to show the entire Hou Mansion that he would not change his attitude towards family affairs because of today's events.

He made her feel grateful at the same time, but she was even more ashamed and shameless.

All her thoughts were on Chi Jingyi at the moment, and her eyes couldn't be pulled back from Chi Jingyi's body for a while, so naturally she didn't notice Su Yingying's small movements.

Chi Jingyi over there saw that the old lady was not in good spirits, so she didn't say much, stood up to say goodbye, and the old lady didn't stay longer, Chi Jingyi saluted, and when she turned around, she couldn't help but glance in the direction of Yingluo across the screen.

The shielded screen is specially used for female dependents to avoid themselves, and it is very clear to look out from the screen, but from the outside to see the inside, only a shadow can see a vague shadow, Yingluo knows that Chi Jingyi can't see herself, but I don't know if it's a psychological effect or what, but I feel that his quick glance fell straight on her body, and his eyes are gentle and calm, with a sense of comfort, which makes her eyes a little red.

Yingluo blinked her eyes hurriedly before forcing back the slightly hot tears.

Although Chi Jingyi is a guest, he is a junior in the end, and it is not good for Su Dingwen and others to send him off in person, so it is Su Jinghua who sends Chi Jingyi out of the house all the way.

The two were talking, and as soon as they left the Songhe Courtyard, they heard two little maids biting their ears outside a flower wall outside the verandah.

One of the maids, whose voice was slightly crisp, exclaimed, "Really? Did the Assassin really enter the house of the five girls? Oh my God, the five girls can accept the levy today, isn't their reputation now guaranteed? ”

The other maid suppressed her voice and said, "Shhhhh I heard this from the maid of Qiushuiyuan herself, so it's naturally true. The leading Praetorian Guard general also rushed into the boudoir of the five girls, and I heard that it took at least half an hour to come out of the house, and then he caught the assassin, and the Praetorian Guard also withdrew, which can be wrong! ”

When Chi Jingyi first heard the maid speak, he was slightly stunned, and he didn't react for a while, and then listened to the latter maid's response, where he didn't understand, he was suddenly full of anger, his face turned red, and he was about to jump over and twist the two maids who chewed the root of their tongues.

didn't want him to just move, but Chi Jingyi next to him grabbed his arm, he looked over with puzzled and anxious faces, but Chi Jingyi shook his head slightly at Su Jinghua.

But when she heard that there was a flower wall, the maid who spoke out first said again: "Just now the five girls went to the old lady's courtyard, I saw it really, the five girls' lips are swollen, and they look like they have been bitten by someone." ”

"Really? God, this can't be nonsense! ”

"How can it be nonsense, how many people have seen it, I don't believe you will take a closer look at it for a while."

"But how is this possible, is the assassin crazy, desperate and still thinking...... Thinking about that kind of thing. ”

"Who said it was the assassin, didn't you stupid girl listen to what I just said, the commander of the Praetorian Guard has been in the house of the five girls for a long time, and the five girls look like that, I can't tell what happened in the house."

Su Jinghua was already furious when he heard this, and his whole body trembled, and he couldn't wait to rush out and tear the two maids apart. asked them to frame his sister with such foul language, but Chi Jingyi heard such words.

He was about to jump out, but Chi Jingyi was busy holding Su Jinghua's hand and speeding up his pace and walking away through the hand-copying verandah.

Su Jinghua only thought that Chi Jingyi had listened to the words of the two maids, so he stopped himself, and for a while he was really anxious, angry and disappointed in his heart, and just after passing the moon cave door, he shook off Chi Jingyi's hand and said: "Those two broken mouth girls are talking nonsense, I didn't expect Brother Chi to ......"

"Someone deliberately arranged them there, and deliberately said those words to me, how could I believe it."

Before Su Jinghua's accusatory words were finished, Chi Jingyi interrupted him with a smile, his face was calm, his eyes were clear, and he naturally didn't bewitch the two maids at all.

Su Jinghua was so young that the two maids were just bumped into by them when they inadvertently broke their mouths, and now when they heard Chi Jingyi's words, even if they understood the past, their fists clenched again for a while, and their faces were pale.

Chi Jingyi patted Su Jinghua on the shoulder and said, "If you rush out, you will inevitably make some noise and alarm people, and you will really make a big fuss, if you make a big fuss, wouldn't it be your sister who will suffer first?" The words of the two maids are not yet known to the whole house? This is what weighs the hearts of those behind the scenes. ”

Su Jinghua gritted his teeth and said, "Then you can't let them splash dirty water on my sister indiscriminately!" ”

Chi Jingyi said with a smile: "No one said that it was just up to them, you don't have to send me, so I quickly turned back, quietly followed the two maids, identified who it was, where was the errand, and turned around and quietly made someone arrest it and handed it over to the third master." Those two maids didn't expect you to turn back, and they wouldn't be guarded, so go quickly. ”

Su Jinghua's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he didn't dare to delay, he hurriedly nodded at Chi Jingyi, turned around and ran back with light steps.

Seeing his figure disappear, the smile on Chi Jingyi's face unconsciously subtracted, his eyes looked into the distance a little blankly, and he stood for a moment before he smiled, turned around and strode away outside the house.
