Li Zongyang walked out of Tingyuxuan in despair, but he didn't want to bump into Mama Gui who came in a hurry.

Mama Gui was old, and when she was hit like this, she didn't grasp the center of gravity of her body for a while, so she fell backwards so hard.

Fortunately, the two maids who followed behind her were quick and stepped forward to catch her, which prevented a tragedy.

Looking at Mama Gui's frightened appearance, one of the angry maids couldn't help but reprimand: "How do you walk?" Reckless, what if you fall grandma! ”

Li Zongyang heard the reproach, slowly raised his head, glanced at the maid coldly, and then squinted at the frightened Mama Gui, clasped his fists and said, "I'm sorry."

After speaking, without waiting for a reply, he turned his head and left, his back lonely and ...... Aloneness.

The maid listened to Li Zongyang's insincere apology, and her heart became even more angry, and she turned to his back and shouted and scolded: "What is your attitude? Don't you even apologize after hitting someone? ”

Hearing the scolding, Mama Gui, who had come to her senses, hurriedly stopped her: "Xiaoqing, be presumptuous!"

Another timid maid was frightened by Mama Gui's "presumptuousness", and hurriedly lowered her head, but the maid named Xiaoqing was a little unwilling, frowning and pouting dissatisfied: "Mama!"

Mama Gui glared at her, stopped her from continuing to complain, and then sighed again, took her hand, and said with soft eyes: "He is a guest, we are slaves, don't mess up the proportions, lose your manners!"

Xiaoqing was still unwilling after hearing this, and stretched out his hand to point in the direction where Li Zongyang left and complained: "But he... You..."

Mama Gui pulled back Xiaoqing's hand and whispered: "Enough," after interrupting her words, she said earnestly: "Sometimes you can endure it, and if you can't bear it, you have to endure it, you are quick to speak for a while, and what you lose is not your courtesy, but the hospitality of Xia Mansion!" Those of us who are slaves and maids should always think about how to solve the problems for our masters, not cause trouble! What is my temporary grievance?! ”

Xiaoqing lowered her head in shame, although she was unwilling, but she also replied, "I know, what Mama taught me."

Mama Gui knew that Xiaoqing was holding grievances for her, after all, she was old and her body was not as flexible as their little girls, and this heavy fall might break her old bones.

Seeing Xiaoqing standing with her head down, looking unhappy, Mama Gui sighed and said softly, "Don't be wronged, let's go." ”

"Ouch!"

But as soon as she took a step, she let out a painful wail, her face turned pale in an instant, and her body was unstable.

"What's wrong with Mama?"

The two girls hurriedly stepped forward to support her and asked nervously.

Mama Gui frowned and replied, "I guess I have broken my foot."

When the two little maids heard this, they were anxious, they were really afraid of something!

Mama Gui soothed: "It's no big deal, I heard that Yuxuan is in front, and you two girls will help me over."

Xiaoqing hurriedly said: "Mama has any errands to hand over to the slave maid, you can rest here for a while!"

Mama Gui pretended to smile lightly and said, "Yo! You can't do this! Hold me along. ”

Listening to Yuxuan, Xia Xue'er was surrounded by admirers, babbling and arguing! There are those who want to praise her with their heads, and there are those who try their best to introduce themselves......

Xia Xing struggled to protect his sister's surroundings, not daring to be distracted, for fear that his sister would be taken advantage of. At this time, he regretted it very much in his heart, he knew that this was the case, he shouldn't have looked for these painting idiots in the first place! Just find a few random people! It's good now, the painting idiot becomes a nymphomaniac in seconds, and they are all handsome who already have thoughts about Xia Xueer!

Xia Xue'er was hurt by the noise, but she was helpless. I used to only know that girls were hopeless when they became, and I never knew that boys would have such a crazy side, but today I really have a long insight!

was speechless to look at the sky, but as soon as she raised her head, she saw Mama Gui sneakily hiding behind the pillar on the corridor, Xia Xue'er shouted at Mama Gui as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw: "Mama is here, is there any order from Madame?" I'm coming! He immediately took the opportunity to pull out, struggled to push through the crowd and quickly ran towards the corridor.

As soon as Mama Gui entered the Yuxuan, she saw this lively scene, and originally planned to hide in the dark to observe the situation in the courtyard, thinking about who among the handsome men was more favored by the young lady, so that the lady could have a bottom in her heart. I didn't want to see anything, but Xia Xue'er found out! had to smile awkwardly, and walked towards Xia Xue'er with the help of the two little girls.

"The dinner party is on, and the lady invites the guests over!"

Xia Xing was trying his best to block the group of crazy people, but when he heard this, he was overjoyed, and said loudly: "Today is the birthday of the little sister, and now the dinner party is open, and the old lady invites all the sons to move and taste the delicious food!" We'll have time to talk another day, and we'll talk again when we have time! ”

When everyone heard this, they had no choice but to leave in a huff. General Xia is a well-known hero in the capital, and his wife is also famous for her gentleness and virtuousness, beautiful talent, and is deeply respected by everyone.

Looking at the painting idiots who were reluctant to leave one after another, Xia Xueer and Xia Xing relaxed at the same time and exhaled a long breath. Xia Xing gave his sister a look, then chased forward and left with everyone.

As soon as the source of the noise left, Tingyuxuan suddenly quieted down.

Xia Xue'er only found out at this time that Mama Gui's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat, and her lips were a little pale. So he asked with concern, "Is Mama unwell?"

Mama Gui squeezed out a smile and replied, "The old slave is fine, Miss Lao is worried!"

"Really?"

Xia Xue'er set her eyes on the maid who was supporting Mama Gui on the side, and her eyes full of the smell of inquiry made people have nowhere to hide.

Xiaoqing immediately avoided it after coming into contact with that gaze, lowered her head and said resignedly, "Mama...... This is being ...... outside the listening rain hall Hit by a son...... Broken foot! ”

Xia Xue'er frowned, but she understood everything in her heart, so she didn't ask too much. Squatted down and reached out to touch Gui's ankle.

Mama Gui was flattered, and waved her hand again and again and said: "I can't help it, the third lady can't help it, the old slave ......"

Before she finished speaking, Xia Xue'er raised her head and said in a stern tone: "Mama, don't move!" Then she gently lifted the corner of her skirt, pulled down her stockings, and after a careful inspection, she breathed a sigh of relief, got up and said to Mama Gui: "There is some redness, swelling and bruising, fortunately it did not hurt the bones, Mama should be careful in the future!"

Mama Gui has followed Mrs. Xia all her life, and she has never given birth to a child, Xia Xue'er's actions just now really moved her heart, and she nodded and replied with tears in her eyes: "The old slave remembers."

Xia Xue'er nodded, and instructed Xiaoqing: "You go to the medicine pavilion to get a bottle of medicine that invigorates blood and dispels blood stasis." looked at the other girl again, turned to Cuizhu and said, "You give her a hand and help Mama into the wing room to rest."

As she spoke, Xia Xue'er stretched out her hand to take the scroll in Cuizhu's hand, and Cuizhu hurriedly stepped forward and carried Mama Gui to the wing room with the maid left and right.

Xia Xue'er waited for them to go away, looked around again, and made sure that there was no one before jumping on the roof and quickly flying towards the tall tower in the distance.

As soon as she landed, looking at Su Qi with a stern face, Xia Xue'er instantly became nervous. Ever since she saw the blue smoke rising from the top of the tower, she had been terrified all the way.

Setting off smoke is the way to contact disciples in the Netherworld, and according to the priority of the matter, it is divided into three colors: red, yellow, and blue, and blue is the highest level, and can only be activated when there is a real emergency.

Although Xia Xue'er was anxious, she didn't dare to ask what happened, she was very afraid, afraid that she would not be able to bear the thing that came out of Su Qi's mouth.

Su Qi looked at Xia Xue'er, who was full of anxiety and wanted to speak, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Xianglan is recuperating in the valley." ”

Xia Xue'er breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then asked, "Is she okay?" ”

"After the careful treatment of the third uncle, there is no major problem, although the heat has not woken up, but fortunately, the most difficult period has passed."

Xia Xue'er was happy when she heard this, and a reassuring smile appeared on her face, but she immediately frowned again, Su Qi still hasn't said what happened. It's not Xianglan, is it Shizun?

Hurriedly opened his mouth to verify: "Yes...... Did something happen to the master? ”

Su Qi shook his head, "No." ”

Xia Xue'er was even more anxious in her heart, it wasn't Xianglan, it wasn't Shizun, so what could make Su Qihui so anxious to activate the emergency contact channel?

"I'm relieved to see you're okay."

"Huh?" This is...... What do you mean? Xia Xue'er looked at Su Qi with an incredulous expression.

"Before, you sealed yourself, only complained about yourself, and took all the sins on yourself, I am really afraid that you will ......"

The more Xia Xue'er listened, the more confused she became, and she couldn't help but interrupt: "Senior brother! You're not going to come to me just to make sure I'm not giving up on myself, are you? ”

Xia Xue'er was a little helpless about Su Qi's reaction, but she hurried to meet her after seeing the smoke, is this it?

Su Qi looked at Xia Xue'er's incredulous and helpless expression, and felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, and his face was a little cold unconsciously, isn't this a big deal? Isn't everything related to her a big deal!

However, after this mention, he remembered the purpose of calling her to come this time, so he quickly put away the little temper in his heart, and said with a stern face: "I received a message from the spies before, and today a small force of rivers and lakes has quietly infiltrated the capital. At first, we didn't pay much attention to it, but later we found out that all of them had gathered near Xiafu, some of them hid in nearby restaurants and some dressed as street vendors.

Although it is still unclear what the purpose of this trip is, seeing that they made such a large-scale sortie, and went to great lengths to hide people's eyes and ears, it must have been planned and premeditated earlier! It just so happens that there are not many brothers in the city at this time, and if there is a conflict, we may not be their opponents! ”

Xia Xue'er looked worried at Su Qi, and hurriedly said comfortingly: "Senior brother, let's worry too much, their purpose may not be Xia Mansion, but it may also be to protect someone's thoughtfulness?" ”

She didn't say this out of thin air, just because she thought of Su Han. If that person is a nobody, how could he refuse to reveal the slightest information related to his background?

Su Qi naturally knew what his junior sister was thinking, he shook his head and said: "With the prestige and reputation of the Xia family, not only in the court, but even in the rivers and lakes, there is no shortage of admirers, and the second young master of the Xia family does not listen to political affairs and only travels in the mountains and rivers, and it is not surprising that he has a few friends in the rivers and lakes.

However, the younger sister doesn't know that the emperor is very jealous of the forces in the rivers and lakes, and he has already explicitly forbidden the courtiers in the court to have the slightest relationship with the forces in the rivers and lakes. Even if your father really had a personal relationship with a certain force in the rivers and lakes, I am afraid that he would not choose to venture into the mansion today, let alone arrange so many people to wait outside the mansion, right? ”

Xia Xue'er fell into deep thought after hearing this, what Su Qi said was reasonable. Today, there are many people in the house, and the guests are not only relatives and friends, but they are also powerful ministers of the DPRK and China, although they are dressed in white, they are all literati and ink writers, but they are just lonely travelers who do not belong to any of the rivers and lakes.

"Do you know what kind of sect they are?"

Su Qi shook his head and replied, "Unknown." ”

"If it's really coming at me, it's not as blatant as it is, not to mention choosing it today."

"That's what I couldn't figure out the most. According to my observation, none of them are ordinary martial arts practitioners, although they are well-trained, but the aura on their bodies does not seem to be possessed by killers, at least it is different from the group of barren mountains. ”

Xia Xue'er was silent, so blatant, was it really coming at her? But after thinking about it, I denied this speculation.

From secretly poisoning to chasing and killing Xianglan, although the mastermind behind the scenes was bent on killing her, he also took care of it, and then thought of the conversation with Bai Yining earlier, the attitude of not admitting it to death, it was not so much that she was confident but that she was timid, maybe she was afraid of the Xia family's forces, maybe she was worried about Xia Lin's future situation, or maybe it was some other reason, but no matter why, Bai Yining didn't dare to make this matter public, and she didn't dare to face her head-on, this is a fact.

Maybe they really came for Su Han, Xia Xue'er told herself.

"Senior brother, I left in a hurry when I came out, and I was afraid that someone would be suspicious after a long delay, so I had to go back."

Su Qi wanted to speak and stopped, and finally only instructed: "Senior sister, you have to take precautions, you must not take it lightly!" ”

"Hmm!"

When Xia Xue'er was leaving, she looked at Su Qi, who was uneasy, and was full of doubts.

I don't know when, her second senior brother who has not changed his face has quietly changed his mind. In the past, I always felt that he was using himself to successfully interpret what it means to "Mount Tai collapses in front and the color remains unchanged, and the elk is happy in the left and does not look instantly", but now, the cold and handsome guy who does not smile will also be in a hurry!

In fact, looking at Su Qi's worried and uneasy expression, Xia Xue'er was secretly happy in her heart!
