Mother Chen, who was in charge of purchasing in the small kitchen of Xiangjun in Yunxian Bofu, carried a basket cross-body and hurriedly entered the side door. Because he didn't notice it for a while, the baskets of vegetables, meat and other vegetables that were placed on the side of the trail and waiting to weigh the pounds and pounds stumbled fiercely.
For a while, several mothers-in-law swarmed into this small road, scolding the vendors who placed seasonal vegetables and meat should not put these things here, while helping Chen's mother with all hands and feet, and patting the dust on her body. A clever mother-in-law hurriedly picked up the basket that Chen's mother flew away when she fell, and easily sorted out the melons and fruits that were rolling away and put them in the basket.
Chen's mother fell hard because of this fall, and her brain was groggy for a while. I only heard that the noisy mothers-in-law said that they would help her to rest in the hut on the side, and another mother-in-law hurriedly said that she wanted to get good gold sore medicine. The other woman brought a basin of water, twisted the handkerchief, and took the handkerchief and touched it on Chen's mother's head.
As soon as it touched Chen's mother's forehead, the stinging pain immediately woke up Chen's mother, who was in pain. She snatched the handkerchief, then shook off the hand holding her, and said, "Thank you this time, but I still have important business, so let's go first." I'll come back with you again in my spare time and touch Pai Gow together. ”
After speaking, Chen's mother saluted, and hurried to the inner courtyard. The mother-in-law who picked up the basket fell behind and shouted a few words, but Chen's mother didn't look back. On the contrary, he stepped a little more eagerly.
As soon as Chen's mother entered the courtyard where the townsman lived, the maidservants who were in charge of sprinkling and sweeping looked sideways, and they had never seen Chen's mother, who had always been strict and happy, so embarrassed. Not to mention the wrinkles in his clothes, there were large patches of dust. The hairpin ring on his head was crumbling, and his hair was a little messy.
The most frightening thing is the wound on Chen's mother's forehead that is still oozing blood.
When Chen's mother walked to the carved cypress promenade in the courtyard of the countryman, the maidservant girl guarding the door saw Chen's mother's appearance and hurriedly walked down the marble steps. stepped forward to support Chen's mother and asked, "Mom, what is going on?" Can I apply some medicine to the frontal wound? The slave and maid will help you to your chamber. ”
Chen's mother shook her head and said, "The injury on the forehead is not in the way. I have to report to the countryman on my urgent matter now. ”
The maid glanced at Chen's mother's forehead in surprise, as well as her outfit at this time, and then said, "Must it be so urgent?" ”
"You can go and ask the countryman. Don't mind me. After Chen's mother finished speaking, she tidied up the messy placket under the porch. Pulled back the loose strands of hair.
Then the maidservant went out and summoned her in.
Chen's mother bowed her head and stepped up the marble steps, walked through the corridor, and stepped into the threshold. He respectfully walked three steps away from the main seat and saluted, and said, "Xiangjun Da'an." ”
"No courtesy."
Chen's mother then got up, then lowered her head and lowered her eyes, and reported respectfully: "Xiangjun, the old slave has a piece of news to report, please ask the Xiangjun to retreat." ”
The countryman on the throne, with a serious face, frowned slightly, and then raised his hand. All the slaves and maidservants in the house withdrew.
When the room was empty, the townsman said calmly: "You say, I'll listen." ”
Chen's mother immediately said: "Xiangjun, when the old slave went out to buy fresh vegetables in today's small kitchen today, he heard a rumor in the downtown area, so he hurriedly came back to report it to you. ”
"Yes."
"This rumor says you...... Say you...... Say you're with ...... And...... ...... with urging Gun-...... An affair. ”
The townsman, who had been sitting on the throne with his waist straight, changed his face in an instant. However, after all, she has been a housewife for more than ten years, and she instantly suppressed the earth-shaking changes in her heart, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "You tell me in detail." ”
Mother Chen, who thought that she would usher in the cane punishment of the countryman, immediately put down her thoughts, and then said slowly: "The origin of the rumors The old slave did not inquire clearly, but those rumors are all reasonable and well-founded, and they are widely spread, and even ...... Join...... What is the matter with Lian Xiangjun...... Where...... and the county princess...... How many hours can we meet...... It's all clear. Then the old slave hurried back to pass the ceremony. ”
When the townsman heard this, a flash of sharpness flashed, and then he shouted: "You explain it carefully." ”
Chen's mother panicked, immediately knelt on the ground, and said anxiously: "The most recent message said that the Xiangjun was a month ago, when he met with the Duke of Xujun in Yunxiangzhai and met for an hour and a half. The one that went further forward was three months ago, when the townsman met with the county prince at the Fenglan Teahouse and saw each other for an hour. ...... again"
After hearing Chen's mother's narration, Xiangjun's face turned slightly pale, and his lips moved. But after a while, she picked herself up and said, "Go down and receive the reward." Take care of the wound on your forehead, and don't leave a scar. ”
Hearing this, Chen's mother breathed a sigh of relief and said, "No." Then he slowly exited the outer room.
After Chen's mother withdrew from the outer room, Xiangjun muttered: "Urging Zhai, could it be you?" These rumors are all facts. Who else but you would know so well. However, when you spread these things at this time, you yourself are also involved in right and wrong. It's not like you're always handy. If it weren't for you, the power behind this would be terrifying. The things of more than ten years ago have been poked out. ”
After thinking about it carefully, the townsman stood up, walked slowly to the inner room, and then played around with the corner of the kettle door bed, and then lifted the cashmere woven carpet that was abundant in Rong Di spread in the center of the inner room. Revealing the collapsed floor and the cypress wooden steps.
The townsman picked up the fire fold used by the night watch maid on the low desk, then opened the fire fold, and slowly walked down the cypress wooden steps. There was an old smell in the air, and after about twenty steps, the townsman got used to the dim sight, found the torch placed on the side of the steps, and lit it. For a moment, a bright light illuminated the steps.
As far as the eye can see, there are about thirty or fifty steps.
The townsman straightened his mind, and then walked down slowly.
Descend the last step and push open the small cypress wooden door that looks very old as far as the eye can see. This small door can only be passed through by one person at a time.
A long creaking sounded, and the townsman opened the small door. Then he stepped through the small door.
As soon as you enter the small door, your vision will be much broader, and you can see that this is a closed room made of marble with a height of more than 2 zhang and a length and width of about 90 zhang. However, there were many empty bogu shelves in this room, and many objects were marked with their names, but at this moment there was nothing left. Only a thick layer of accumulated dust remains.
Xiangjun walked to the middle of the ancient frame, found a position marked "Tenglong Yuhuang", gently wiped the dust on it, and then pressed down to take the dragon character. When he heard this closed room, he let out a "click...... Click...... Click......" sound.
