Xiangshu met the gaze of the township lord of Shangyi'an in surprise, swallowed his saliva, and still couldn't speak. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhu Xuan didn't force her anymore, turned around and was about to leave.
At this time, Lang Yue also put away his sword and prepared to leave.
Xiangshu's impatient voice finally came from behind: "I said, I said-"
Zhu Yue paused and turned around: "Who is the main pointer?" ”
"Yes, Mrs. Guo."
Zhu Yue already knew that it was Mrs. Guo, but he didn't understand why Xiangshu was so determined by Mrs. Guo, and he didn't know what tricks she had in the hands of Mrs. Guo.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yue asked, "Why did you help her?" That's what she was trying to say.
Xiangshu swallowed: "Yes, it's because of my brother." ”
"Your brother?" Zhu Yue and Lang Yue looked at each other, "Aren't you an orphan?" How can there be a younger brother? ”
"When I was very young, I lost my parents and became orphaned in the war with my younger brother, and later I met human traffickers and sold my slave to the princess's mansion as a maid, and my brother's whereabouts are unknown. It wasn't until later that a slave accompanied the princess to Pei Wang's Mansion and found that there was a little girl in Mrs. Guo's maid's house who looked very similar to my father's eyebrows, so she tried every possible way to find out that he was my younger brother. It turned out that after my brother and the slave maid were separated, he was rescued by Guo Shangshu, if it wasn't for Guo Shangshu, my brother would have been eaten by wolves. The slave's younger brother owed Mrs. Guo's mother's life, and the slave maid's life was exchanged for a life, just to repay the Guo family for saving my brother's life. ”
When they heard this, Zhu Yue and Lang Yue finally understood the reason why Xiangshu was desperate for Mrs. Guo!
She stared at Xiangshu incredulously.
"You're willing to give her a life for a life, so you want to hurt someone at all costs?" Zhu Yu asked lightly.
Xiangshu blushed, hid his face and cried: "The slave is wrong. ”
What's the use of saying it wrong now!
Zhu Yue looked at her coldly for a moment, no matter how sad she cried, she couldn't give birth to a trace of sympathy.
Xiangshu knelt on the ground and begged: "The slave and maid know that the sin is unforgivable, and only wants to die, and I hope the girl will not torture the slave and maid with this beggar again." ”
"What the slave said is true. On that day, the slave maid did not consider the consequences, and almost harmed the girl, comparing her heart to her heart, and the slave and maid did know that she was wrong. ”
"If given the chance, the slave will never think of such a bad idea again. Girl, for the sake of the past, give the slave and maid a good time. ”
Xiangshu hugged Zhu Xuan's legs.
Zhu Yue kicked her away: "I knew today, but I must have been the beginning!" ”
Xiangshu wiped away her tears, glanced at Wu Gang, who woke up from a coma on the ground, struggling and panting, and her heart began to go up and down again, she wanted to strangle Wu Gang immediately.
Why not die yet!
"Girl, the slave knows it's wrong." Xiangshu begged bitterly.
Before the words fell, Lang Yue suddenly threw the sword in front of her: "Kill him." ”
Xiangshu didn't react for a while, looked at Zhu Yu in a daze, and saw that the girl didn't react, so she woke up and the girl promised to let her live.
Xiang Shu picked up the hilt of the sword with difficulty, and the blade of the sword was aimed at the throat of Wu Gang, who was panting, closed his eyes, and stabbed forward hard, feeling as if he had been stabbed into a dull thing.
She numbly drew her sword, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Wu Gang staring at her with wide eyes.
She shuddered, threw down her sword and stepped back.
"Wu Gang has been killed by Madame Guo's assassins, you don't have to be this beggar's mother-in-law anymore." Zhu Xuan announced lightly.
Xiangshu looked at the seven girls with palpitations.
"Give me back the sword." Lang Yue stretched out her hand and spoke to the frightened Xiangshu.
Xiangshu took a deep breath, tried his best to soothe the tension in his heart, and then picked up the blood-stained hilt of the sword and returned it to her with a trembling voice.
Early the next morning, there was a sound of banging at the gate of King Pei's mansion.
Aunt Li hurriedly walked in from the outside and hurried back to Rongjiao Courtyard.
According to the prior agreement, Aunt Li should have rushed back before the fourth watch, but she ran in at dawn regardless of the seriousness.
Aunt Li made too much movement, which attracted Li Bu's attention.
However, because it was a handmaid with a head and face next to Mrs. Yan, Li Bu was very knowledgeable and opened the door and let her in without asking her anything.
After Mrs. Li walked to Mrs. Guo's upper room, she took a deep breath, and then knocked on the door to enter.
Mrs. Guo was slowly grooming in the mirror.
Chunhe took out a tray with a row of hairpins in it and showed it to Mrs. Guo.
Mrs. Guo glanced at it and pointed to one of the bead hairpins, and Chun He put down the tray and pinned the bead hairpin to Mrs. Guo's bun. Mrs. Guo stroked her hair ornament in the mirror and looked at Aunt Li through the mirror: "Is the matter done?" ”
Aunt Li nodded in alarm.
Mrs. Guo smiled contentedly and asked Chunhe to choose a festive dress for her to wear.
"I've been worrying a lot these days, and even my complexion is not good. Wei'er's happy day is coming, and it is time to dress festively. As Mrs. Guo spoke, Chunhe had already opened the cage, took out one of the bright clothes, and asked, "Madam, how is this?" ”
"That's it."
When Mrs. Guo said that she was about to get up, she caught a glimpse of Aunt Li who was hesitating in the mirror, and wondered, "What else is going on?" ”
"Madam, it's just that Aunt Li stopped talking, "the ten people sent are all dead." ”
"What?" Mrs. Guo's hand on the corner of the table was slightly sluggish.
Then she looked angry, and reached out and jerked the tray on the dresser down, and the tray fell to the ground with a clatter, and the three remaining hairpins scattered inside.
Why is it impossible to kill a little beggar and do such a small thing?
Mrs. Guo turned around with a sullen face and looked at Aunt Li: "What's the matter?" ”
Aunt Li fell to her knees: "The maidservant waited nearby for almost four watches, but she didn't see those people come back, so she quietly ran to the Land Temple to see, and she didn't expect that there were several beggars gathered in the Land Temple. When the maidservant went in to look, she found many people lying on the ground. And all of them, we sent them. The beggar died and died, but he didn't understand how ten strong people could die. ”
Mrs. Guo's face sank when she heard this.
"Who would have done it?" Mrs. Guo asked angrily.
At this moment, Zhu Bi, who had been hiding outside the door and eavesdropping, broke in and said, "Mother, this must have been done by that little girl!" ”
Zhu Bi's sudden intrusion displeased Mrs. Guo.
Why is her daughter always so reckless, she doesn't look like a concubine at all!
Aunt Li also echoed at this time: "The maidservant also feels that she can't get rid of the relationship with the township lord of Yi'an. ”
"Where did she come from!" Mrs. Guo still didn't believe that a girl from a concubine, with no background and no ability, how could she be able to deal with the ten masters she sent out.
Even if there is a skilled Lang Yue by her side, let Lang Yue deal with ten people alone, she is outnumbered!
Mrs. Guo was thoughtful.
Zhu Bi couldn't wait to say at this time: "Mother, the moon next to her is not a good stubble. Since Lang Yue knows how to do it, she knows some fox friends and dog friends, and her mother can't underestimate her. ”
Zhu Bi's words are reasonable.
Aunt Li hurriedly said: "Madam, have you forgotten what happened on the way to Shuiyue Nunnery last time?" ”
Mrs. Guo was slightly cold.
Of course she remembers!
Zhu Yue's ability to escape from a group of assassins indicates that there is someone behind her.
Aunt Li sank her heart and said, "Actually, the maidservant already has a suspicion. ”
"Auntie, let's hear it." Mrs. Guo said busily.
"Madame thinks that the forces behind the Yi'an Township Lord will be related to General Zhao of Nangong Mansion?"
Nangong Zhao?
Mrs. Guo subconsciously shook her head, unwilling to believe this fact: "Impossible. She is just a concubine girl, why should General Zhao help her? ”
"Madame, don't you think that the beauty of the township lord of Yi'an is a disaster?" Aunt Li reminded.
No matter how they deny it, it is a fact that Zhu Xuan is too beautiful.
Mrs. Guo was taken aback and denied it again: "How is it possible? She's a righteous woman. ”
"The righteous daughter is not biological after all. How could Madam expect her to have the same identity as Nangong Changshan. Aunt Li reminded again.
The idea is a bit bold.
Last time, Zhu Bi was cut off the title of the township owner because of what moth Huang Nuying mentioned.
"Mother! I agree with Aunt Li's idea. No matter what Uncle Zhao's reason for treating the little concubine, Uncle Zhao may be the mastermind behind the scenes. Zhu Bi also said.
Mrs. Guo was unwilling to accept this fact, "Aunt Li is just guessing, Changle, don't get involved in this matter." ”
"Mother's matter has come to this, and it is impossible to face Fu Xiaoyu's daughter in person. Just create accidents. Zhu Bi said.
"Accident?" Mrs. Guo looked at Zhu Bi, whose eyes were full of hatred, Zhu Xuan's face had a look distorted by ferocity, she looked at Mrs. Guo, and her eyes did not blink.
"yes. Accidentally. A stone falling from the sky can kill people, not to mention that I heard that Cousin Xia of Nangong Dongfu accidentally ate the poisonous wine and died. Zhu Bi said coldly.
Mrs. Guo pondered for a long time, and this was the only way to do it for now.
Aunt Li said: "Madam, let's go to the old lady to see the reaction of the little maiden, and it's not too late to make plans." ”
In the Moss Courtyard.
When Mrs. Guo walked in, she saw Zhu Yue sitting next to her and drinking morning tea with the old lady.
After Mrs. Guo walked over with Zhu Bi to say goodbye, she sat silently to the side, and poured two cups of tea for Mrs. Guo and Zhu Bi.
Mrs. Guo glanced at the morning tea, and there was a faint milky fragrance wafting in the tea.
She smiled casually: "The old lady really has ideas. When milk is added to the tea, the color and aroma are different. ”
"That's not what I thought. It's Mrs. Ding. ”
As soon as the old lady's words fell, Mrs. Guo raised her eyes and glanced at Mrs. Ding, who was smiling lightly, and regretted what she had just said.
Mrs. Ding did not ask for credit, but behaved more humbly, and said, "Thanks to the old lady's blessing, I can think of this method." ”
Zhu Bi pouted: "It's as if only you think of it." I've thought of it for a long time, but I haven't had time to do it yet. ”
"Changle, it's one thing to think about it, and it's another thing to make it." Aunt Rong smiled.
Zhu Bi's face turned pale: "Aunt Ding presides over the middle feed in the house, if such a simple thing can't be done, then it really can't be said." In the past, when my mother advocated it, she also thought of a lot of new tricks, which were much more powerful than this. ”
"Changle, don't say it." Mrs. Guo humbly waited for Zhu Bi to finish speaking, and said angrily.
Zhu Bi said: "When the old lady praised Aunt Ding, Changle remembered his mother's kindness. ”
Mrs. Guo was quite proud in her heart.
Zhu Bi finally got to her heart.
This is the tacit understanding between mother and daughter.
Mrs. Guo's eyes flashed with a hint of happiness, and then her eyes inadvertently fell on Zhu Yue, who was drinking tea next to her.
Zhu Yu stayed out of the matter, as if he had not paid attention to these conversations.
She just drank tea intently.
Mrs. Guo's eyes narrowed as she remembered what happened last night.
Aunt Rong changed the subject and asked Xiang Yi'an, "Did you sleep well last night?" ”
This is exactly what Mrs. Guo wanted to ask, and Zhu Bi couldn't help but look over, and looked at Zhu Yue with an indifferent face coldly.
Only then did Zhu Yue raise his head and smile at Aunt Rong: "Yi'an slept well, and it was dawn when he woke up." ”
Aunt Rong said: "Yi'an's sleep has always been very good, even I admire it. I have to wake up several times a night. As soon as winter comes, I don't sleep steadily. ”
"Speaking of winter, I remember, the old lady plans to burn the earth dragon at the beginning?" Mrs. Ding asked.
"The weather has been unusually warm these days, so I should have started using it at this time in previous years, right?" Aunt Rong asked.
Mrs. Guo didn't wait for Mrs. Ding's answer, and hurriedly interjected: "Yes." In previous years, when I was worried about the affairs of the house, I had never been so lazy, and I burned the earth dragon on the first or seventh day of the new year. ”
Mrs. Ding smiled: "It also depends on the weather." What day in previous years, what day is this year? The weather is unusual, as warm as spring, and if you are afraid of the cold, I can first have someone set fire to the dragon in your house. ”
Roast you to death!
Mrs. Ding scolded in her heart.
Mrs. Guo stared at her with her eyebrows, and said, "When the earth dragon is to be used, everyone will use it together, I don't dare to use it exclusively with the old lady, it's strange that you still have the idea of enjoying the earth dragon alone." ”
There was a faint sourness in their words.
Seeing that the old lady was about to be displeased by their open and secret fighting, Aunt Rong changed the topic again: "Yi'an, there are two maidservants missing from your house now, a maidservant, my aunt originally wanted to add a few people to you, but when I thought of Xiangshu's matter, my aunt felt sorry. So I don't dare to make a private claim and then make a selection for you. It's better to let Mrs. Ding help out. ”
Mrs. Ding smiled: "What is this?" Originally, it was my business, the fifth princess, rest assured, I will definitely help Yi'an find a few loyal and honest maids. ”
Zhu Bi was not happy to hear it: "The seventh sister is just a concubine in the end, and it is enough for her to have two maidservants in the house." There are only four of them in my house. ”
Mrs. Ding blinked her eyes and looked at Zhu Bi, who was not ashamed of her words: "Your seventh sister is the township master, what are you?" ”
Zhu Bi was angry when asked.
Mrs. Guo refuted Mrs. Ding and said, "What Changle said is right. Changle is the most noble eldest daughter in the palace, and Yi'an is just a concubine born to a cheap concubine, and from this point of view, it is not an exaggeration to say that Changle's share is twice as much as that of Yi'an. ”
The old lady said unhappily: "Yi'an is the township master, and he will come according to the township master's example." ”
The old lady's words were like a slap on Mrs. Guo's face.
Mrs. Guo remained calm, although the muscles on her face were beating faintly due to the hidden anger, she still took a deep breath, swallowed this evil breath, suppressed the clamor in her heart, and sneered: "Old lady, no matter how much Yi'an is raised, she is just a concubine, and she will be a concubine for others in the future, old lady, you-"
Before she finished speaking, the old lady coldly placed the teacup on the table.
The milky tea spilled out.
Mrs. Guo concluded. (To be continued.) )
