Chapter 50
As soon as she heard Xie Zhaolin's words of repayment, Mrs. Xie began to feel uneasy again, and she chattered beside her: "You must not promise each other personally." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
It caused a burst of laughter from the people in the room.
After laughing and eating, Mrs. Xie's mood was obviously much better. After Xie Zhaolin talked to her for a while, she went back with Hongqing.
Before leaving the room, Xie Zhaolin turned around and asked Ruying why Mrs. Ruying didn't come to eat today, she didn't think that going to Mafu would make Mrs. Xie, a woman who had been in the deep house for many years, so angry that she couldn't eat.
Ruying hesitated for a moment, looked inside the door again, and said softly: "Today, when you went to the meditation nunnery, Mrs. Ma came to the door and brought a gift, saying that it was to make amends for the Xie family, and that the in-laws still had to do it. As a result, after she left, the lord quarreled with his wife, scolding his wife for being... Fail to keep the faith... Take a daughter's lifelong event... Be child's play. ”
Ruying's voice trembled more and more, Xie Zhaolin raised her hand to stop her, nodded, and told her to take good care of the eldest lady.
"Miss, the Ma family first locked up Mr. Ma in the ancestral hall, and now Mrs. Ma has come to the door in person, it seems that this is going to be a family affair! What can I do?"
Xie Zhaolin stood on the cloister, looking at the calm water being pushed up by the cheerful fish.
And her people are like this lake, calm on the surface, but agitated inside.
Of course she can't marry Ma Wenbin, absolutely not! So we must find a way to get rid of this family business, and we can't let the Xie family be infamy.
What can be done? Xie Zhaolin looked at the lake in a daze, and couldn't help but be distracted.
"Miss, miss, it's windy, why don't you get a cloak for you?" Hongqing on the side thought that Xie Zhaolin was going to sit on the corridor, so he proposed.
Xie Zhaolin came back to his senses, shook his head, and walked in the direction of Yuxiuyuan.
Hongqing stood in place, looking at her back, and a sense of familiarity surged inexplicably, until Xie Zhaolin turned around and cast a puzzled look, she put away her stiff expression and quickly followed.
I actually think that Miss Two looks like Miss Three, it must be an illusion! I just don't know how the third lady is now, she is still ... Is it in this world?
……
In the quiet of the palace, a beautiful woman sat in front of the dresser, wearing only a thin white bedgown, and her long hair was scattered, hiding the expression on her face.
The woman stretched out her jade fingers like green onions, took out a longevity lock from the bottom of the open jewelry box, and stroked it gently.
It was a small, gold lock, a little old in color, but the place on the back where the words were carved was as clean as new, apparently caused by frequent touching.
The woman continued to caress the two words, muttering in her mouth, her eyes pained and sad, her long eyelashes stained with tears as her eyes blinked.
"Whoa", there was a collision sound caused by the bead curtain lifting and falling behind, and an old woman with plain eyebrows and eyes, but quite imposing, walked in and saluted the woman.
The movements of the woman's hand did not stop, and she asked lightly: "Is that female corpse Dangui?"
The old woman shook her head and replied, "Although the body of the female corpse is very similar to Dangui, and the face is unrecognizable because it has been soaked in water for a long time, it is reasonable to say that it cannot be confirmed, but the slave can conclude that it is definitely not Dangui."
"How so?"
"The female corpse has calluses on her hands, so she should be a rough worker."
As soon as the old woman's words fell, she heard a rattle, and when she looked closely, the woman had broken a hosta alive, and because of excessive force, the green tendons on her white hands appeared.
"Mother," the old woman cried out hesitantly.
"What did the emperor say?" The woman asked again, the expression on her face having returned to indifference.
"The emperor used the statement of Dali Temple, saying that it was caused by a palace person in Luoying Hall who accidentally overturned the fire candle and ignited the curtain." The woman looked up at the woman's expression again as she spoke, and then continued: "As for Dangui, it was accidentally lost and fell into the water on the way to move the rescuers..."
"Yes, very good!" The woman didn't wait for her to finish speaking, she sneered a few times, and then ordered to the shadows: "Lan Ting, dress up the palace, the palace is going to meet the emperor!"
As soon as the words fell, a palace maid in pink palace clothes came out to comb the woman's hair, but was stopped by the old woman who came in a hurry.
"Niangniang, it's getting late, the emperor has already rested at Shangguan Zhaoyi, it's better to be tomorrow..."
The woman swept her with cold eyes, and said disdainfully, "So what? Hongu entered the palace with his sister fifteen years ago, and his sister died fourteen years ago, and his niece and daughter disappeared. Two years ago, my niece came back, but now she's dead again. The palace has become a lonely person, and now asking the emperor for permission to go to the temple to pray for the blessing of the deceased relatives, is there anything excessive?!"
The old woman nodded in agreement: "Not too much, of course not too much." But Niangniang's words are too extreme, you must know that you not only have the emperor, but also your parents are alive in your hometown, but you really don't..."
"Mama Wu, did you grow up with this palace since you were a child, and this palace respects you for three points, so you rely on the old and sell the old?!"
The woman screamed, and Mama Wu realized that what she had just said was inappropriate, and knelt down in fear, shouting that she didn't dare.
"In that case, why are you talking nonsense? Is the emperor alone in this palace? Is it the parents of Hongu who are there in my hometown?"
No, the mother she confessed hanged herself as early as when she was a child, and the real parents drove her out of the valley because of the unhappiness of their eldest daughter, and they could only get together every New Year's holiday.
So what other relatives does she have to speak of?
Mama Wu kowtowed again and again because of the question of the woman in front of her, that is, Bai Zhaoyi, and said: "What Niangniang said is right, but it's too late now, let's go and ask to see the emperor tomorrow!"
Mama Wu persuaded bitterly, not only would she anger the emperor and Shangguan Zhaoyi by passing so late, but she was more afraid of Bai Zhaoyi's abnormality today.
She grew up watching Bai Zhaoyi, and knew that the other party was a tolerant person, whether she was despised in the Shangguan family when she was a child, or bullied by the deceased concubine Bai Nianru in the Alien Insect Valley, Zhaoyi Niangniang endured it.
After entering the palace, Bai Zhaoyi was even more cautious, and only broke out when the child was snatched away fourteen years ago.
And the way she looks today is very similar to that of the past.
Of course, Mama Wu understands the pain in Bai Zhaoyi's heart, her daughter finally came back, but she still has to be named a niece. And then it was obvious that he was murdered, but the emperor covered up the past with such a ridiculous statement.
How could she not hate?!
Mama Wu raised her head again to continue to persuade Bai Zhaoyi, but suddenly found that Bai Zhaoyi had already put on a purple butterfly and a flower phoenix tail skirt, and was about to go out with a golden step decorated with agate on her head.
This... This is Bai Xianfei's favorite outfit!
She... What is she doing here? Isn't this to provoke the emperor? Really... Sure enough, I can't let her go, it's a confused brain!
"!" Mama Wu rushed over and grabbed the corner of Bai Zhaoyi's skirt, deciding to stop her even if she lost her life today!
Unexpectedly, Bai Zhaoyi spoke softly, and her voice was already a lot calmer: "Don't worry, this palace won't do anything, just go to ask the emperor, if you don't worry, just follow."
Yes? So easy to talk to? Mama Wu was stunned and staggered out.
