Chapter 9: Strange
It is really strange to say that the old lady has been closed for several days, and few people have entered and left the rooms. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Wakaki whispered to Fuso. "Although my uncle asked people to bring back a message every day, I didn't say anything about what happened."
Fusang looked at Zhang Lingxi with a worried face, and replied in a low voice: "No, you look at the young lady's appearance, as if she has lost her soul." ”
Zhang Lingxi was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and he was in a mess. What was the situation in Qi Mansion, she didn't pay attention at all, and only thought about going back to Liu's house first.
But early in the morning, the Zhong family sent someone to say that they wanted the young grandmother to stay at her mother's house for a few more days, but they didn't say anything in detail. Liu came over to stabilize Zhang Lingxi and said: "It's the old lady who is reluctant to let you go and wants you to stay for a few more days, so I discussed the land with your mother-in-law." You stay in peace and wait for your uncle to pick you up. ”
Zhang Lingxi felt that except for her, everyone else was afraid that they knew something.
It's okay for the Zhong family to hide it, but how can it be that her brother and grandmother also want to hide it from her?
Liu's coming to this experience not only did not make Zhang Lingxi settle down, but made her even more suspicious.
What the hell will it all be hidden from her?
Could it be that something happened to the Zhang family?
Zhang Lingxi's hands and feet were cold.
I remember that Zhang Lingzhe told her that the Zhang family was wiped out by Qi Luming in the previous life! But at the moment, Qi Luming doesn't have any power, and it is impossible to do this kind of thing quietly, not to mention that I saw him two days ago.
Could it be that things have changed, just like Zhang Lingzhe can be reborn, could it be that the fortunes of the Zhang family have changed with the changes of her and Zhang Lingzhe, and the day of extinction has been advanced?
Zhang Lingxi was shocked in his heart, and immediately felt that the sky had collapsed, and he was almost about to faint.
Ruomu quickly supported Zhang Lingxi: "Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”
Zhang Lingxi rubbed his temples and sighed lightly: "Ruomu, accompany me to see the old lady." ”
Finally steadied herself, she had to figure out what was going on.
Wakaki immediately responded and exchanged glances with Fuso.
"Fusang, you and Xunli are keeping an eye in the house, if the master sends a letter, send it to me immediately."
"Yes." Zhang Lingxi's orders were not at all afraid to slack off.
Zhang Lingxi took Ruomu and hurried to the old lady.
The old lady must know the most, although she is old, she has a clear eye and a bright heart, and everything is well understood, and the big and small matters of the family cannot escape the eyes of her old man.
Ruomu didn't dare to speak much, so he could only follow the young lady with his head down and walk briskly.
"Sister Xi! Wait a minute, I have something to tell you! The voice came from far and near, and Zhang Lingxi stopped walking.
Qianqian chased after her and shouted at her while panting.
It seems that she went to find Zhang Lingxi, and hurriedly chased her out when she was not there.
Zhang Lingxi hurriedly greeted her, took Qianqian's hand, and asked, "Why are you running in such a hurry?" Don't be in a hurry, just pant and talk about it. ”
In fact, Zhang Lingxi is more anxious than anyone else, and Qianqian must have something extremely important to run all the way without regard for her manners.
Maybe Qianqian knew something and was in a hurry to tell her?
Qianqian paused for a moment, put her hand on the back of Zhang Lingxi's hand, and said with some apologies: "I went to the room where Qi Luming practiced to look for him, but found that the door was locked. I thought it was strange at the time, so I pushed it, and I saw Jiarou falling to the ground through the crack in the door. ”
"What? How did Jiarou end up there? Zhang Lingxi's face changed, "When was she locked in?" ”
Needless to say, I also know that Qi Luming did it, that is, in the past few days!
Jiarou disappeared so suddenly, but there was no action from the Zhang family, could it be that Jiarou came over at the behest of the Zhang family? Unexpectedly, he met Qi Luming halfway and was robbed by him.
Maybe the Zhang family thought that Jiarou had arrived here safely.
Qianqian said with a crying voice: "I don't know, Jiarou she won't say anything." I had the lock unlocked and sent Jiarou to my house. The stakes are so high that I have to make amends to you personally. ”
Zhang Lingxi asked worriedly, "Jiarou, is she okay?" ”
"It's fine. It was only when I was frightened and didn't eat the water for a long time that I fainted. Qianqian personally checked her pulse and made sure that everything was fine.
Zhang Lingxi could only take Ruomu back and go to the fourth room to visit Zhao Jiarou.
Qianqian sent Zhao Jiarou a change of clothes and asked people to prepare a table of meals. The clothes were changed, but Zhao Jiarou was not seen moving chopsticks.
Jiarou looked out the window anxiously, always feeling that time passed too slowly, and she couldn't wait for Sister Xi to come over.
"Jiarou, you're scared." Zhang Lingxi saw Zhao Jiarou like this now, and blamed herself.
Zhao Jiarou saw Zhang Lingxi and said nervously: "Come here, I have something to say to you." It's all my fault, I delayed my efforts, and I don't know if I will miss something. ”
"Eat something first, and talk as you go." Zhang Lingxi quietly glanced at the dishes, and Qianqian took her subordinates to avoid.
"Your brother asked me to tell you that the uncle seems to want to impeach the Liu family or someone from the Zhao family." Zhao Jiarou pushed the dish away.
"The Liu family? And the Zhao family? Did my fifth brother say anything else? "It even involves these big families, Zhang Lingxi has a stomach full of questions.
Zhao Jiarou shook her head.
It seemed that she didn't know how much, Zhang Lingxi pushed the food back to her and said, "What you said is too useful, I'll let people notify Brother Xian." How can you take a bite and be so hungry? When you're full and have the strength, come back with me. It's been a long time since I've told you a word of confidant. ”
Zhao Jiarou felt that she had done something wrong, and she was depressed and didn't want to eat or drink. couldn't stand Zhang Lingxi's persuasion, so he had to pick up the dishes and chopsticks and eat two bites hastily.
"That's right. Qi Luming's revenge for bullying you, I will definitely help you avenge it. If you let the fifth brother know that you have been bullied by me, you don't know how to blame me, so you have to do it well. ”
Zhang Lingxi's words made Zhao Jiarou burst into tears.
"I've never seen someone like that, why is his heart so bad."
Is this called bad? The Zhang family was directly copied by Qi Luming in his previous life!
"He never takes things seriously, and in his eyes, as long as he is happy, it is a good thing. If he is not happy, he can give you bad things, no matter how good they are. "I haven't brought Qi Luming's temperament over the years, and Zhang Lingxi hates it so much.
"Hey, it's a pity that Qianqian is such a good girl..."Although Zhao Jiarou is timid and doesn't like to talk, she can see things very clearly, so she can't help but hug Qianqian.
"Everyone has a life, maybe get through it, and good days will come. You eat here first, and I'll quickly ask someone to inform Brother Xian. "Zhang Lingxi can't sit still anymore." I'll let Qianqian stay with you for a while. ”
"Well, you can go quickly. That's what matters most. ”
Zhang Lingxi walked on the road and began to think carefully about the ins and outs of the matter.
On the day Zhao Jiarou came to report the news, she was intercepted by Qi Luming. Something happened that night, Brother Xian was hurriedly taken away by several people in the palace, and later even Mrs. Zhong sent someone to ask her to stay in Qi Mansion.
There are a lot of things that don't make sense.
Perhaps what Brother Xian wants to do is related to the impeachment of his eldest uncle. But how could the eldest uncle impeach others? She knows the temperament of her uncle best, and she only wants stability as an official in the court. How could such a big uncle do something that offended people, and he still offended the family of the world?
Zhang Lingxi was concentrating on things, and suddenly bumped into something.
"Sister Xi, I have something good to show you." Qi Luming came out of nowhere, and walked to Zhang Lingxi's side with a smile.
It turned out that it was Qi Luming who hit it.
He had a sword in his hand and triumphantly wanted to show her.
Zhang Lingxi is angry because of him. And he snatched the sword.
Qi Luming didn't know Zhang Lingxi's intentions, and said with a smile: "I originally showed it to you, what are you in a hurry to grab?" ”
"Qi Luming, if you have any dissatisfaction, you will come to me, what kind of ability is it to bully a weak woman like Jiarou?" Zhang Lingxi couldn't help but raise his sword and stab it.
Qi Luming was on one side of his body, and he easily dodged it.
"Hey, I'm an official now, if you stab me, I'll go to jail." Qi Luming took advantage of Zhang Lingxi's unpreparedness, snatched the sword in her hand, pointed at Zhang Lingxi's forehead and said, "Good little girl, what do you do when you learn to dance with knives and guns?" This is a reward from the emperor, and it's not good to break it. ”
"If you dare, stab you with a sword." Zhang Lingxi expected that he would not dare.
"What's the matter, none of your Zhang family members are afraid of death? Or do you want to be loyal to the country like your uncle? Tsk, such a beautiful face, wouldn't it be a pity if he also crashed into the pillar and died? Qi Luming said angrily. He was kind and wanted to use the sword to make Zhang Lingxi happy, but who knew that she would treat him like this.
"What nonsense are you talking about, what's wrong with my uncle?"
The bad news brought by Qi Luming made Zhang Lingxi's face turn white in an instant.
"Your uncle, that's it, knock, blood spattered on the spot!" Qi Luming smiled and gestured with his hand, and said provocatively: "But instead of worrying about your uncle, you should still worry about the Liu family." ”
Seeing that Zhang Lingxi was silent, Qi Luming continued: "Presumably now the Liu family is going to hate you to death, and whether your brother Xian is willing to ask you or not, it is still two words. Anyway, the emperor gave me an official body, so you might as well marry me if you divorce. ”
"Hey, Zhang Lingxi, don't go, I haven't finished my words yet, hey!"
Qi Luming watched Zhang Lingxi run away, threw away the sword in his hand boringly, and muttered to himself: "Liu Xian is better than me." ”
Although Zhang Lingxi went back to his house, he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time in shock.
Why did Qi Luming suddenly have an official body? How could the eldest uncle admonish each other with death? Why hasn't the Zhang family sent any news yet?
She is like this now, as if she is deaf and dumb.
"Miss, my uncle is back." Xunli paused for a moment and said, "You don't have to wait for your aunt to eat, the old lady came from the other side, saying that my uncle was too tired and had cleaned up a room for him to rest." ”
Seeing that Zhang Lingxi was silent, Xunli called Miss again; "Uncle is back."
"Got it, I'll go to the old lady to find him."
"I said that my uncle had already rested."
"Can't I go over when I rest?" Zhang Lingxi was angry at Xunli for the first time.
Zhang Lingxi really went to Liu Xian's bedside and stayed all night, and Liu Xian woke up when it was dawn.
Zhang Lingxi was looking out the window, the light was on her face, and her hair was wrapped in warm colors, and she looked demure and beautiful.
It's a pity that such beauty should not be appreciated at this time.
"Ling Xi? Why are you here? Liu Xian noticed that she looked haggard, and said distressedly: "You shouldn't have stayed with me all night, right?" I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to sleep when I came back, so I asked the old lady not to tell you. ”
"I know your good intentions, but I'm anxious." That being said, Zhang Lingxi's tears still couldn't help but fall, and he couldn't do it in his heart.
"Ling Xi, I'm sorry." Liu Xian suddenly stretched out his arm to hug Zhang Lingxi, making her tremble and almost fall on her back.
Liu Xian hugged her tighter, and said with his face against her and choked: "The matter of the eldest uncle is too sudden, I didn't expect it to be like this." ”
Zhang Lingxi also hugged Liu Xian tightly and sobbed: "Brother Xian, will you hate me?" Will Mrs. Chung hate me? ”
"You didn't do this, how can I blame you."
"Brother Xian, I want to know, who is the eldest uncle impeaching?" Zhang Lingxi broke free from Liu Xian's embrace, sat upright, and asked solemnly.
"General Zhao Mo."
"How so?"
Zhang Lingxi never expected that the eldest uncle impeached the general Zhao Mo in the bloody battlefield, the nephew of Mrs. Zhao!
"This matter is very deep, and it is not clear in one or two sentences. The emperor held in his hand ironclad evidence that General Zhao collaborated with the enemy and treason, and my uncle was also mentioned in the letter. ”
"Even my uncle was implicated? What is it that wants to move the foundation of the Liu and Zhao families. ”
Liu Xiandao, "In the past few days, I have been trying my best to rescue, and I have not investigated this matter in detail." By the way, your uncle's coffin has been sent back to Baoding Mansion. ”
"Then can I go back to Zhang's house and have a look? Grandmother, she's old, and I'm afraid she won't be able to stand such a blow. Zhang Lingxi asked cautiously. And Jiarou is there, I don't worry about her going back alone. ”
"Okay, I'll arrange the carriage and horses. I can't go with you, be careful on your own way. ”
"Hmm. By the way, Qi Luming said that the emperor gave him a sword official body, but is it true? ”
Liu Xian was a little surprised, "He actually told you?" ”
"It's a long story, he showed me off, and I thought he was lying."
"The emperor's micro-suit was attacked when he went out of the city, and he was meritorious in escorting, so he got a reward. Just lucky. ”
"I don't believe that he is just lucky, with his personality, it is strange enough not to sneak up on others, how can he go to escort him."
These words reminded Liu Xian.
"Maybe someone really helps, I'm afraid that he will be used. A few days ago, I asked people to keep an eye on him, and I heard that he was very close to a merchant named Lu Li. But I thought that as long as he didn't bother you, nothing else mattered, so I didn't pay too much attention. ”
Zhang Lingxi clapped his hands excitedly and said: "This Lu Li is really capable, not only is he good friends with my fifth brother, but now he can even surrender to Qi Luming, a freak." I also heard that he married the sister of the Wang family, and he is really a character when he thinks about it. (To be continued.) )
