Chapter 185: The Old Land

Liu Ruoxi invited Mrs. Liu San and Liu Ruoshan to sit in Mrs. Liu's house, and Mrs. Liu agreed happily, and she also had something to talk to Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoshan.

"What a coincidence did the snake come out of?" Liu Ruoshan asked Liu Ruoshan, not only by coincidence, but also strange.

Not only Liu Ruoxi, but also Mrs. Liu Second and Mrs. Liu San also suspected that someone had deliberately released the snake out.

"Fourth sister, think about it, have you seen anyone nearby, and have you noticed anything strange." Liu Ruoshan said to Liu Ruoshan.

"I didn't dare to say it at the old lady's just now." There is no need for Liu Ruoshan to ask very much, Liu Ruoshan seems to have something to say, "...... In a trance, I saw someone behind the bushes, the snake bit someone, and the eldest princess disposed of people, but I always felt that the people in the Hou Mansion were secretive......"

Liu Ruoshan told everyone about the suspicious situation at that time.

"No need to ask, someone must have done it on purpose." Mrs. Liu San said, "Moreover, the person who released the snake must also be a person from the Hou Mansion." ”

How can other people move freely in the Hou Mansion, and they can also let snakes bite people.

"Who in the Hou Mansion has such courage?" Mrs. Liu frowned and said, "This snake came out, several girls were injured, who is the purpose of the person who released the snake?" ”

"In my opinion, the purpose of the person who let the snake out should be the big sister." Because Liu Ruoshan was at the scene, she saw most clearly, those snakes fell on Liu Ruoyuan's legs and feet first, Liu Ruoyuan jumped up in shock, and those snakes were frightened and crawled around, only to hurt other people.

There was someone in the Hou Mansion who deliberately targeted Liu Ruoyuan! Moreover, this person is obviously not low in status and influence of the Hou Mansion!

"The eldest lady is really counting on letting the eldest girl marry into the Hou Mansion. I don't know what she would think when something like this happened. Mrs. Liu San raised her eyebrows and said. And thanks to the snake is not poisonous, otherwise ......"

Otherwise, Liu Ruoyuan may not be able to come back alive today.

Anyway, the eldest princess's poetry meeting this time was a mess.

"In such a comparison, the second girl broke the vase, which is a trivial matter." Mrs. Liu San thought about it, and then asked Liu Ruoshan, "What else did your second sister do today?" ”

"I listened to my mother's instructions and refused to be with them, but just watched carefully. …… We arrived early. While waiting in the flower hall, the little girl from the Hou Mansion talked to the second sister in private, and after that, the second sister went out for a while, where she went, no one knew, and when she came back, the second sister looked very happy. Going out to compose poems and breaking vases is what happened after that. Liu Ruoshan told everyone one more thing.

"These two girls are not as honest as they seem." Mrs. Liu San said to Mrs. Liu Er. "When I looked at it, I didn't know the depths. However, it doesn't look like a climate. ”

After talking about the poetry meeting for a while, Mrs. Liu Second and Mrs. Liu San separated Liu Ruoshan and Liu Ruoshan. The two men lowered their voices and said something else.

“…… It was the little girl who served in the courtyard of the eldest sister who said it...... I'm afraid that the eldest lady ordered her to hide it from ......, if it is true, it is too chilling......"

……

At the same time. In Mrs. Liu's house, Mrs. Liu had already sent Liu Da/Grandma and Liu Ruojuan away, leaving Liu Ruoyuan to speak alone.

“…… Who put the snake to bite you. Do you have a number in mind? Mrs. Liu asked Liu Ruoyuan.

"Mother, I saw a little guy behind the bushes in a trance, and I was suspicious ......"

"What kind of little girl, did you tell the eldest princess?" Mrs. Liu asked hurriedly.

“…… Skinny and small, I saw his face, and the next time I saw it, I would definitely recognize it. I didn't have a chance to tell the eldest princess, and the eldest princess didn't seem to want to delve into this matter......"

Mrs. Liu understood, but she could only frown and sigh.

"The eldest princess must know the inside story." Now that he knows the inside story, but he covers it up like this, there must be something embarrassing in it that can't be revealed, so he will deal with his subordinates so neatly, and he will deliberately appease Liu Ruoyuan.

"Who is so powerful, he can buy the people of the Hou Mansion to do such a ruthless hand."

"I suspect it's someone from the Dingyuan Bowei family." Liu Ruoyuan said, "Only his family is the closest to the eldest princess, isn't it rumored that the eldest princess has fallen in love with the ninth girl of his family?" I think Wei Wu is the most suspicious! ”

"Didn't she get bitten too?"

"Let's hide it." Liu Ruoyuan said, seemingly convinced that Miss Wei was the culprit. Although today's poetry meeting was dispersed halfway, Liu Ruoyuan performed very well, and among those girls, only Wei Wugirl could be with her. Later, the two men almost had some-for-tat meaning.

After all, what happened in the Hou Mansion was very important, and Mrs. Liu couldn't make any definite judgment just by guessing.

"It can be regarded as ......a blessing in disguise," Liu Ruoyuan suddenly smiled, "The eldest princess treats me really affectionately, saying that she wronged me." Mother, you said, the eldest princess feels that she has wronged me, and she can't live with me, will she just ......?"

Will you think about her a little more when you think about Han Qing's marriage?

This is Liu Ruoyuan's idea. Mrs. Liu looked at Liu Ruoyuan's face and did not refute, but she was worried that this might not be the case.

"The eldest princess still hasn't made up her mind, so we have to make some other plans." Mrs. Liu thought about it, and said to Liu Ruoyuan, "In two days, it will be the banquet of Yongjing Palace, and when the time comes, my mother will take you there, and you will ......."

"Mother......" Liu Ruoyuan's face showed a look of surprise.

"If you remember your mother's instructions, there may be hope, and it will be much stronger than the eldest princess here......"

Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoyuan discussed in a low voice for a long time before they dispersed with great ambition.

In a blink of an eye, it was time to congratulate Rong Chenghan. On this day, everyone in the Liu family got up early in the morning, because Rong Chenghan worshipped the relationship between the second master Liu as a teacher, and the relationship between the Liu family and the Yongjing Mansion is also different from usual. The Yongjing Palace's side had already sent a confidant steward to send an invitation, and specially said that he wanted to invite Mrs. Liu to lead the family to the banquet.

Liu Ruoxi didn't want to go, but she only showed a hint of such a thought, and she was counted down by the joint efforts of Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu.

"If you don't like to go to other people's homes, they all depend on you, how can you not go to this incident. This is not the same as the invitation ...... the eldest princess. Legend has it that when you go out, others will laugh at you for not knowing how to be polite, and I don't know if you will say behind your back that your father treats Chenghan badly......"

Liu Ruoxi also knew that the words of Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu were reasonable. She can not go to the eldest princess, because she has reached a consensus with Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu. But Yongjing Palace, she has no reason not to go, and Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu will definitely not support her.

After all, she just went to congratulate her, but it was only half a day's work, and if she couldn't even cope with this, she wouldn't be able to do anything else. Liu Ruoxi thought about it, and didn't insist anymore.

Second Mrs. Liu saw that Liu Ruoji agreed. I was very happy, busy with Zhang Luoliu's dress. According to Mrs. Liu's second wife, she asked Liu Ruoxi to wear the long gown that had just been made in floating brocade.

"Mother, it's too conspicuous." Liu Ruoxi shook her head.

"There may be some conspicuousness, but when I go to the palace for a banquet today, those young girls and grandmothers must be dressed up. Mother can't let you be compared to others. Mrs. Liu said.

Liu Ruoxi glanced at Mrs. Liu's second wife, and felt a little strange in her heart. Mrs. Liu usually likes to dress up her, but she has never said anything about comparing herself to others. Although she felt a little strange, Liu Ruoxi didn't think much about it. I was only happy to be Mrs. Liu, and I was happy for Rong Chenghan. Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu really treat Rong Chenghan as a close person.

"Mother, you have too little confidence in your daughter." Liu Ruoxi made up her mind and refused to be conspicuous, so she deliberately smiled and said to Mrs. Liu. "Do I need some good clothes, so that I will not be compared? I am the daughter of the first beautiful man and the first beauty in the capital, and I am not afraid of people crossing me when I wear a cloth dress casually. ”

Liu Ruoxi said. Mrs. Liu lost her temper instead. In the end, Liu Ruoxi still did not wear a floating brocade gown, but picked another golden gown with autumn fragrance. And a set of red gold inlaid red coral heads, simply dressed up. Mrs. Liu was also satisfied.

Here, Mrs. Liu also cleaned up, so she went to Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu brought Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan, Mrs. Liu San took Liu Ruoshan, and Liu Da/Grandma brought her eldest sister to come one after another.

"Are the big girls all right?" Mrs. Liu asked Liu Ruoyuan. Liu Ruoyuan is wearing a red gown with gold all over the place, with a golden phoenix adorned with beads on her head, and she is dressed in brilliant embroidery.

"Back to the old lady, it's all right." Liu Ruoyuan stepped forward and said coquettishly to Mrs. Liu. The snake that bit her was not poisonous, but it was a skin wound, and the fright was more serious, and now it is naturally fine.

"That's good." Old Mrs. Liu nodded and glanced at the eldest sister again, "How are you?" ”

The eldest sister's illness has also been cured, but her face is still a little haggard, and she has lost a lot of weight, dressed in a full costume, and looks even thinner.

"Back to the old lady, the eldest sister is fine. Yesterday, I kept talking about following the old lady to see more. Liu Da/Grandma stepped forward to answer for the eldest sister.

Mrs. Liu looked at the daughters-in-law and granddaughters, and nodded with satisfaction.

A subordinate came in to report that the carriage and horses in front had been prepared, and the eldest master and others were already waiting in front. Mrs. Liu then got up with all the daughters, took the car at the second gate, and went to the Yongjing Palace.

Liu Ruoxi and Mrs. Liu sat in the same car, from Liu's house to Yongjing Palace, the road was spacious bluestone road, and the carriage walked very steadily, but Liu Ruoxi subconsciously grabbed / grabbed Mrs. Liu's hand.

She didn't know how many times she had traveled back and forth on this road in her previous life, but there were not many pleasant memories left on this road. Although, she used to sit in a sedan chair with ten miles of red makeup, full of joy and longing.

"What's the matter," Second Mrs. Liu felt that Liu Ruoxi's hand was a little cold, and hurriedly held it with her backhand, she didn't think that Liu Ruoxi was nervous, "Is it because of the discomfort?" ”

"Oh......," Liu Ruoxi walked for a while, looked up and saw Mrs. Liu's concerned gaze, and a thought flashed through her mind for a moment, if she said that she was not feeling well now, there was a chance that Mrs. Liu would let her stay at home because she felt sorry for her. However, this thought was only fleeting, and it was replaced by another, more determined thought.

Rong Chenghan will not break off his relationship with the Liu family, and looking at the current situation, the two families will get closer and closer. In this case, Liu Ruoxi couldn't avoid contact with the people of Yongjing Palace, even if she avoided this time, there would be a next time. So what is the need to indulge one's weakness to escape that, bravely facing it is the only and most correct choice.

"Nope." Thinking of this, Liu Ruoxi shook her head at Second Mrs. Liu, "Mother, I'm fine, it's just ...... The first time I went to the palace......"

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid," Second Mrs. Liu thought that Liu Ruoxi was nervous, and hurriedly smiled and comforted, "The princess is a person with a very gentle personality, besides, there is still a mother by your side." ”

"That's what my mother said." Liu Ruoxi nodded and smiled.

"I'll see the princess as soon as I meet ......" Second Mrs. Liu lowered her voice and told Liu Ruoxi again.

Soon, they arrived at the Yongjing Palace. Liu Ruoxi's hand clenched into a fist in her sleeve, this is the sad place she used to be, and she will never be that sad person again. If someone is destined to be injured, then she will choose...... (To be continued......)
