After a while, he said again: "There is another matter, the matter of Yunqi going to Chongwen Academy, I'm afraid it won't work now." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info As soon as the matter of Du Lingjun and Shi Wenjin came out, the imperial court is now investigating the Wei and Du families very closely, although Yunqi's appearance has changed, his body shape and voice have not changed, don't show his face first, if he is found out, his life is gone. Let him send the coffin of Rumeng back to the south, on the island, accompany Yun Ning, and take care of the affairs on the island. ”

I nodded: "I understand, and I have figured it out now, what is an official or not, as long as he can be safe." ”

He patted my hand and smiled.

Back at Bancheng Villa, Zhou Sinian ordered someone to decorate the body of the little maid with the body of Rumeng, temporarily park it in Evian Courtyard, and let Yunqi escort it back to the south tomorrow, and move all the people in Evian Courtyard out to live in another courtyard, no mourning, no crying. Rumeng was given death by the emperor, and allowing her body to return to the south is already Li Chaozong's big face for Zhou Sinian.

Speaking of not crying, Zhou Sinian specially instructed: "Let Liu'er persuade Aunt Yu, just say that you can't cry now, and when I wait for this winter, I will take her back to Sun City, it doesn't matter how long she likes to cry and how loud she cries." ”

Who knew that in the afternoon, Liu'er ran over with a pale face, crying and reporting: "Granny Yu is gone, and the slave maid didn't expect that her legs and feet are not good, why did she run out?" ”

Zhou Sinian's face turned pale all of a sudden, "Let's go and find it, where can she go for an old woman with bad legs and feet?" His voice was tired and frightening. I didn't go back to the south this year, and I was careful all winter, and I was finally safe. First the jade mystery is in front, and then it is like a dream, and this is the jade mother-in-law, the people of the jade family, lining up one by one to torment his heart. Are they here to protect Zhou Sinian, or is it his curse?

Outside, the sun was setting and shining obliquely through the lattice, and everything in the room was shrouded in a blur of rose. We held each other and sat together in the courtyard in front of the door, watching the sun go down. The sun was red, like a boiled crab. Zhou Sinian suddenly smiled bitterly: "We look like this, don't we look like an old couple?" They were all sick, holding each other up, and then watching the sun go down together. ”

I took his hand, "No, we are still a couple in the prime of life, the illness is only temporary, we still have five children, they are all very young, we need ......"

The twilight is vast, shrouding the half-city villa. When the lantern was lit, it was still dusk and yellow.

Granny Jade didn't find it. The guards at the gate of Evian Courtyard were removed after Li Chaozong's death was like a dream, and everyone was busy pretending to be like a dream, and no one paid attention to where Granny Jade went. But none of the guards saw her go out, and neither did the guards who patrolled her.

At this time, seeing You Ning walking alone, I wanted to ask him where Xiaoyun had gone, but when I thought of the ivory carving bracelet and looked at Zhou Sinian beside me, I still dispelled this thought.

I didn't want to, but You Ning came over with a heavy heart, and said to me and Zhou Sinian: "City Lord, madam, I think Sister Xiaoyun has been a little strange lately. ”

My heart was beating suddenly, and Zhou Sinian came to his senses, looking at You Ning with great interest: "What's strange?" ”

"She often talks to herself, and when I ask her what she's talking about, she says she's endorsing."

I breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "What's so strange about that?" Ah Xiao has been working very hard, Youning, you have to learn more. ”

Zhou Sinian asked, "Did you hear what she said?" ”

You Ning shook his head, his big eyes flickered, and his face was melancholy: "I can't hear clearly, I don't listen like an endorsement, but like chanting." Just now I went to Xiaoyun's room, she looked even worse, muttering about the lotus pond, and her mother-in-law killed someone......"

Zhou Sinian's eyes suddenly became very bright, and his mouth trembled slightly: "It's called Zhou Tong!" Send someone to salvage the lotus pond! Then he jumped up from his chair and walked away.

I didn't care about Zhou Sinian, grabbed Youning, and asked in a loud voice, "Where is Xiaoyun?" What about Xiaoyun? ”

Yuning was frightened by the two of us, and said to Ai Ai, "Xiaoyun is in her own room. ”

When I followed Yuning to Xiaoyun's room, she wasn't there. The figures outside are more and more following their commands to go up to the peak, running towards the lotus pond. I had no choice but to follow the flow of people to the lotus pond.

Lanterns were lit by the lotus pond, and Zhou Sinian sat on the shore. In the dim light, his face was like a knife, and his lips trembled slightly.

It was even deeper, and the chill gradually came up, I told Qingyang to go and get a coat for Zhou Sinian, and looked at her face inquiringly. She shook her head blankly.

At this time, trembling, a small figure came over, it was Xiaoyun. Her lips were trembling, as if she had been greatly frightened. I hurriedly took her in my arms.

"Don't be afraid, my father and mother are here," I comforted her, "you see that my brothers are looking for what you see inside, can you tell me what is in the lotus pond?" Where did you see it? So that the brothers can find it quickly and suffer less cold. ”

Xiaoyun looked at me tremblingly, like a frightened kitten, curled up in my arms. Say nothing. I had no choice but to stop asking, hugging her and gently patting her on the back.

In the lotus pond, the water seems to be very calm, there is no ripple on the water surface, the trees and houses on the river bank form a cyan silhouette in the water, the water surface will shake from time to time, and a few small bubbles will appear, and then immediately return to calm, that is the water ghost in the water. There were no lotus flowers in the pond, and the lotus leaves turned a deep withered yellow, all broken and buried motionless in the water.

The night was getting darker, and the cold wind was blowing. Qing Yang brought us both coats, and Xiaoyun's eyes were half-open and half-closed, yawning one after another. I wanted Qingyang to carry her to sleep, but she hugged me tightly and refused to let go.

The water ghosts in the lotus pond had been replaced by a second wave, and when they searched until they reached the vicinity of the stone arch bridge, someone finally came out and shouted, "Found it!" ”

Zhou Sinian stood up, and everyone walked forward with him, only Ruyun and Luzhu stood next to me. I hugged Xiaoyun, she shivered even more, I don't know if it was cold or scared. I had no choice but to sit down in my chair, wrap her in my cloak, and pat her gently.

Granny Jade's body was carried ashore, and all the people gathered around, and with a command, the water ghosts in the lotus pond came ashore. With the help of their companions, they took off their water ghost suits, put on cotton clothes, and then assembled into a team. The whole process was done in one go, without making a single sound.

Abin is not among them, he didn't grow up in Sun City, and he must not be as good as the children of Sun City, so he won't appear in the ranks of water ghosts. (To be continued.) )
