Chapter Eighty-Four: Cowardice
Hanyue was sent by Liang's mother, and she didn't dare to delay at all, so she rushed to the Juxian Hall in the front yard. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
As soon as I entered the courtyard gate, I heard hearty laughter from the main hall, as well as the sound of men talking.
This girl knew that there were distinguished guests in the hall, and she didn't dare to break in just because it was the big girl next to her wife, so she let the little girl at the door go in and let her go, and she honestly waited for Mu Lingxuan to come out to see her under the corridor.
After a while, footsteps sounded, and the purple bamboo curtain hanging on the door of the main hall was lifted, and Mu Lingxuan, who was wearing a round-necked robe with royal blue arrow sleeves, walked out, followed by Mu Hu.
His face was faint, and he couldn't see his joy or anger, as if the person who was laughing and talking in the hall just now was not him at all.
This one glanced at Hanyue lightly, and said coldly: "Don't panic, just tell me what happened in Bisong Courtyard as it is." ”
Han Yue was stunned by his cold glance, and her whole body was cold, and her smile was frozen.
A slender girl, the favored big girl in front of Mrs. Hou, instantly became shrugged and hunchbacked, so pitiful.
Fortunately, Liang's mother was able to send Hanyue at that time, because she had her own considerations, this girl was naturally articulate, and she was always the first in front of Liang Wenyu.
In the face of the invisible pressure of her own son, Hanyue stammered a few words at the beginning, and the more she said the following words, the more she spoke, the scene where Lan Jiayin stopped her own Mrs. Hou was too shocking, and Hanyue was extraordinarily eloquent when she said it, and she said it very vividly.
Mu Lingxuan can almost imagine how her smart little girl realized that something was wrong, and how she decisively stepped forward, pulled away her own mother, and resolved the Bai family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in four or two thousand pounds, and the conspiracy against her mother and herself.
He is the concubine of the Hou Mansion, and he has been taught by the Marquis of Xuanping himself since he was a child, and he has very little time to linger in the backyard.
Under his father's ear, he knew that a good man was determined in all directions, and he couldn't interfere too much in the affairs of the backyard, otherwise, if he was known, he would say that he did not distinguish between inside and outside, and he was more than a substitute.
However, not interfering does not mean that Mu Lingxuan does not know the eldest brother of the family.
Probably because Mu Lingxuan grew up in the conspiracy and hostility of the Bai family's mother and son since he was a child, so he really hates his father's favorite concubine and beloved son as much as he wants.
When he is a little older and the power in his hand is a little bigger, it is not difficult for Mu Lingxuan to find that every time, when he is in a desperate situation, there is a mother and son behind the scenes.
came and went, and the instinctive hatred when I was a child turned into deep hatred, and I completely regarded these two as the biggest enemies in the family.
So when Mu Lingxuan listened to Hanyue's words, he immediately knew that the people under his mother's hands were still hidden in the dark by the Bai family.
You must know that this time to deal with the Bai family, Mu Lingxuan was afraid that something would happen halfway, so he deliberately picked out the dark lines he knew and handed his mother a safe list.
But in the end, the Bai family still got the news of Mu Yishan through his contacts who had been operating in the Hou Mansion for many years, and even learned the details of his relationship with the Lan family, which shows that he still doesn't know enough dark lines.
Thinking about it, the Bai family knew that Mu Lingxuan had an important handle in her hand that could kill her son, and it had been two or three days, and when Liang Wenyu was under house arrest, she didn't cry or make trouble, and she was rarely silent.
But when the Lan family came to visit today, he suddenly appeared in Bisong Courtyard, and it seemed that the Bai family's honesty during this time was just to wait for the opportunity.
Why did the Bai family think that the Lan family's visit was her best chance to make a move?
Mu Lingxuan thought, I'm afraid that the Bai family analyzed that something was wrong from the clues he got along with the Lan family, I am afraid that he knew the prince of the Xuanping Hou Mansion, and eighty percent of them looked down on the fifth lady of the Lan family.
Thinking about it like this, Rao is Mu Lingxuan didn't treat the Bai family anymore, and he had to admit that this woman could be in the Hou Mansion for so long, and between the Xuanping Hou and his wife, she was really happy, and she was indeed a rare smart person.
You see, they have already been strictly guarded, and she can still run out of the yard where she is guarded, Mu Lingxuan secretly sighed that she still underestimated the other party.
If it weren't for Lan Jiayin's head turning fast, seeing that the situation was wrong, she would stop it, I was afraid that the Bai family would already be bloody on the spot, and wanted to use her own half life to win the sympathy of Xuanping Hou, and then when she dealt with Mu Yishan in the future, she would be able to fall lightly and leave her son's life!
"Hmph" Mu Lingxuan figured out the joints, couldn't help but snort coldly, and said secretly: "You have a good calculation, but it's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, in the end, God is still on my side." ”
I can't help but feel a little more love for my little girl, there is a lot, Lan Jiayin is sent by God, and it is the weird idea of the people who are blessed by him.
After thinking about it for a while, he instructed Hanyue: "You go to my yard to find Luzhu now, and tell her that since the Bai family is sick, it is better to let her sick father go home." ”
"As for Madame's side, if you ask about the Bai family, you can say that I said it, let her not worry about these trivial matters, and when the guests are sent away, I will explain to her."
How could Hanyue understand the meaning behind this sentence?
"I'm afraid the Bai clan is really going to fall ill!" I felt a little sad in my heart, "I saw Aunt Bai in the back garden a few days ago, she was still surrounded by beads and greenery, and she was surrounded by everyone. It's a little bit of a competition with his wife. ”
"But the prince has only been back for a few days? The wind in this house is about to change! ”
"In the past, it was always their family who tried their best to calculate us, don't you know, there is also a day when the prince is drugged......"
Hanyue inevitably thought of herself from Bai's body, and thought of the little bit of caution she had in the past, she was really cold from head to toe!
Answering the errand with a trembling voice, Hanyue hurriedly bowed her knees and retreated, and without looking back, she rushed out.
It made Mu Hu laugh for a while, "I said master, I haven't seen you for a few years?" There has been a big change in the family! ”
"Like before, this girl is a little talented, isn't that a little bit of a head to come to you?"
"It's okay now, trembling back, turning around and running away after speaking, this is for fear of being bitten by the wolf?"
Mu Lingxuan naturally knew what the reason for the change was, but this will be the future brother-in-law still sitting in the house, and there is no extra effort, chewing his tongue with Mu Hu outside.
Although he also invited several cousins and brothers to accompany him, he was the protagonist in the end, and he couldn't let people feel that he was despising the guests.
turned around and looked at Muhu, and said with a smile, "Uncle Leshan was still in front of me yesterday and said, let me keep an eye on you and find a gentle and virtuous lady for Bao'er." ”
"The most important thing in our house is the gentle and graceful beauty, you widen your eyes, who you fancie, you will come back and forth to the master, and the master will call the shots for you."
Mu Hu heard that his spine was cold, and he shook his head again and again, "That's good, anyway, I have a son, and the slave will just serve the master in the future!" ”
Mu Lingxuan ignored him, turned around and went back to the main hall, Mu Hu raised his heels, but he couldn't stop worrying in his heart, he was really afraid that the master would point him a daughter-in-law, and when he got there, he would no longer be at ease.
Hanyue on the other side got into the sedan chair when she went out, and urged her mother-in-law to go to Wutao Courtyard until she turned the corner and couldn't see Juxian Courtyard anymore, she was relieved.
Leaning into the sedan chair with a weak body, he couldn't help but mutter, "The prince has been getting older in recent years, his body is getting taller and more powerful, and he is becoming more and more handsome, which really makes people love him in their hearts." ”
"However, it is precisely because of his age, the momentum of this lord is becoming more and more like Hou Ye, and it is becoming more and more terrifying, a few years ago, the sisters of Manchu, let alone six or seven out of ten, have the idea of beating him, but in the past two years, I am afraid that there are fewer people who dare to get close......"
Thinking of the Hongyu who was drunk by the prince last year, he had the courage to recommend himself to the pillow seat, no one knows whether he cooked raw rice and cooked rice, but early the next morning, he was beaten to death at the gate of Wutao Courtyard, but there is no one in the Quanhou Mansion who does not know!
Thinking of the bloody and hoarse red jade who was beaten and begged for mercy, Hanyue couldn't help but feel a spirit all over her body, that was one of the most beautiful people in the Hou Mansion, even the uncle had to look at her more.
I'm afraid that only my own son, this kind of cold-hearted person with a stone heart, can turn a blind eye to such a lovely person, right?
Hanyue was thoughtful, but she didn't dare to delay at all and ran to Wutao Courtyard, and passed the word to Luzhu without changing a word, and she didn't even have time to drink her saliva, so she rushed to the back garden again.
On the way, I happened to meet Dou'er who came to look for her, and learned that Mrs. They had already seen the Nine Heavens Immortal Spring, and now they were taking a painting boat to tour the lake, Mrs. said that she would place the luncheon in the Ziyun Pavilion by the lake, and let her go directly to the pavilion to help Liang's mother, so that she didn't have to rush to serve Mrs.
Ziyun Pavilion is backed by the bamboo forest, facing the blue lake, sitting in the pavilion and looking out, not only the view is excellent, but the surrounding scenery is also extremely beautiful.
It is said that it is a pavilion, in fact, it is a large open hall with five rooms, the roof is three or four zhang high, there is no wall around it, there are eighteen cloud pillars inside, the red pillar is matched with the white auspicious clouds, it is very eye-catching and beautiful.
The ground of bamboo and wood paving, a bamboo and wood high platform is placed in the middle, there are three steps of bamboo and wood ladders on each side, and the fence guards around the platform are all carved with exquisite flowers, and the flower core is also inlaid with matching gems.
The periphery of the Purple Cloud Pavilion is surrounded by white, purple double sand mantles, the breeze is together, the light yarn is ethereal, like a fairyland, it is a wonderful summer cool treasure land.
When Hanyue entered the pavilion, the inside was almost cleaned up, because there were big ice kettles in the corners of the walls around them, as well as the banana fans on all sides of the head, under the control of the little girl, fanning the wind leisurely, compared with the scorching heat outside, it was as comfortable as early spring.
She looked around, Mother Liang was staring at the maid setting the table on the bamboo and wood platform behind, she quickened her pace, stepped up the stairs carved with hibiscus flowers, and curtsied with a smile, "Mother Liang, the matter has been done, if you have anything to do here, please command." ”
Liang's mother didn't ask much, raised her head and pulled her sideburns, and said with a smile: "On a hot day, I still ran such a big lap in the house, and it's hard work, there are few guests today, our wife attaches great importance to the Lan family, and only invited the fifth lady and the mother to accompany her, even the host and the guests are counted, but there are only three tables, what is there to be busy?" ”
"It's going to be a feast in a while, you say, if there is no movement, isn't it too monotonous?"
Hanyue thought about it and suggested: "Mother Liang, Mrs. Lan, Miss Lan has filial piety, listening to dramas, and telling stories, it is definitely not appropriate, our wife has not prepared anything, I am afraid that I have thought of this." ”
"The maid thinks, why don't we call a few musicians with good skills in the troupe, and let them play some elegant tunes on the boat, coming from the lake, the movement is not very big, and it seems to be extraordinarily meaningful, do you think it?"
"Hey, that's a good idea, no wonder Madame likes you, you're a clever one." Liang's mother applauded, but instead of supporting Hanyue, she called a young mother under her to go to her own drama troupe to spread the word.
After sending the mother away, Mother Liang pointed to the two mahogany Eight Immortal Tables under the high platform, and said to Hanyue, "There is a chilled sour plum drink there, you can drink some to quench your thirst." ”
"Calculate the time, Mrs. They should come back from swimming in the lake, you take a breath, and you can take the smoking class in a while."
This is also because Liang's mother saw that she did a good job, so she made a special face.
After all, each of the eight big girls around Liang Wenyu has something good, except for Hanyue, because of her calm personality and old work, she is the first big girl who is stable and stable, and the other seven are really like a hundred flowers, competing to bloom.
Being able to serve Mrs. Hou on today's occasion is really the most faceless and good errand, Hanyue was immediately overjoyed, and the smile on her lips did not fade, and this good news immediately washed away her bad mood just now.
Sure enough, Liang's mother was right, Hanyue drank a sweet and delicious sour plum drink, and there was faint laughter outside, she glanced at Liang's mother, and when she saw this person walking out, she hurriedly straightened out her clothes and accessories, and followed her mother out to greet her.
Liang Wenyu's face was full of joy, obviously he was in a happy mood, and the anger just now was not visible at all.
I heard her smile Yingying instructed the maid, "Quickly bring our sour plum drink." He turned to Mrs. Lan and said affectionately, "Sister, don't look at this childish custom, but our things are good, and there are a few flavors of good medicine in it, which is the best to drink in the summer, and there is no break in other people's homes." ”
"It's not convenient to be on the boat just now, so you'll have to give it a good taste."
As he spoke, Liang Wenyu led everyone to the high platform.
Because there were not many people, Liang's mother did not move the big table, but placed four wide low tables on the shiny bamboo and wood platform.
Behind the two low tables in the middle, there is a soft and thick embroidered beaded brocade mat, needless to say, this is the position of Liang Wenyu and Mrs. Lan.
The two first ones, there are two **** pads on the left, which are the positions of Ye Fangjun and Xue Rulan, and three **** pads on the right, which are the positions of Lan Jiayin's three daughters. (To be continued.) )
