Chapter 249: Betrayal (2)
"Slave maid...... The girl will need people to marry into the East Palace in the future, although the prince loves the girl, after all, the palace is not an ordinary place...... The slave and maid had to stay with the girl to help her. β
Liu Lu will not tell the truth in the end, but tells the lie so high-soundingly. Xu Zigui sighed silently in his heart, but there was an aggressive momentum on his lips: "If you are willing, you can come to serve by my side after marrying Yuncheng." Besides, in the spring and winter, the snow warbler sings and learns the autumn, and they have almost learned the rules. When girls grow up, they always want to get married, how can I always keep you by my side? β
After that, he didn't wait for Liu Lu to say anything, but sighed to himself: "That's it, maybe you don't have that blessing." Even Cheng Xu doesn't look down on you. β
Xu Zigui will not grow up to be majestic and destroy his own ambition, this sentence is indeed a bit abnormal. Lan Xiang only thought that Xu Zigui was tired and tired, and Liu Lu refuted her meaning, so she was so wrong. But Liu Lu remembered what Liu Liang said to himself-
Xu Zigui already knew what she had done and wanted to kill her.
Since then, Xu Zigui's words have been particularly harsh in Liu Lu's ears. even had some grievances - except for this time, she had always been loyal to Xu Zigui, and she thought about Xu Zigui in advance, but in the end, it was also a bad result, Xu Zigui would really doubt her...... How could she be willing?
As a result, Liu Lu's somewhat guilty thoughts disappeared. The relationship between master and servant is getting farther and farther apart.
Xu Zigui saw Liu Lu's stubborn appearance of biting his lip and not speaking, and sighed again in his heart. After all, I couldn't bear it, and I spoke again
"That's it, I won't force you, if you have someone you like, just talk to me, anyway, we also grew up together, don't be restrained and embarrassed. In this way, I can arrange it for you, and I will save the mandarin ducks. β
Xu Zigui's words were originally kind, but this time Zi Liulu's heart was left, so he naturally misunderstood Xu Zigui's good intentions. I just thought that Xu Zigui was testing himself. couldn't help sneering: "The girl is always worried about the marriage of a few of us before she gets married, if this is spread out, it will damage the girl's reputation, what I don't know is that the girl hates to marry." β
Liu Lu is a person who practices martial arts, and Xu Zigui is very pampered on weekdays. On weekdays, I'm used to talking fast. In addition, his mind is straighter than that of the others. Say whatever you want. This time, Liu Lu was resentful in his heart. Naturally, the words that are spoken are not to be heard. Even Lan Xiang, who didn't know what was going on on the side, heard the turmoil in the words of the master and servant.
"Willow Green!" Lan Xiang saw that Xu Zigui had no intention of opening her mouth to reprimand, so she had to reprimand: "What kind of style do you have to talk to a girl like this!" β
In fact, as soon as Liu Lu spoke, he regretted it a little. Although Xu Zigui didn't say anything at this time, he didn't scold himself, so he thought he was a little disheartened...... After all, Xu Zigui treats them very well on weekdays.
"I ...... Slaves...... Girl, the slave said unintentionally, girl, girl, don't go to your heart......"
"Hmm."
Xu Zigui closed his eyes and leaned on the pillow and nodded lightly, but he didn't say anything more.
Liu Lu knew that he had said the wrong thing, and he refused to say another word. Although Lan Xiang didn't know what was going on, she also felt the subtlety of the atmosphere, and she was afraid that she would poke the pain of the two of them as soon as she opened her mouth, so she didn't dare to speak again.
In this way, the three masters and servants have been rare to be silent all the way.
When he arrived at the Weiguo Mansion, Xu Zigui followed the Qin family to Liufangzhai to ask Mrs. Xu for peace, so he excused himself from staying in the house under the pretext of being unwell, and returned to his Liuqing Garden.
"Does the girl bathe first or set the meal first?" Xi Qiu changed Xu Zigui's clothes, and while dismantling the fine soft for Xu Zigui, he said with a smile: "If the meal is set up first, the slave maid will go to inform Sister Liulu first, so that Sister Liulu can set the meal well." β
Hearing that Xi Qiu was about to let Liu Lu set the meal, Xu Zigui raised his eyebrows slightly almost invisibly, and then nodded lightly as if he was tired: "Let's set the meal first." β
Xi Qiu bent his knees and retreated to inform Liu Lu.
Let's say that Liu Lu had heard from Liu Liang that Xu Zigui doubted himself, and then heard Xi Qiu say that Xu Zigui instructed him to set the meal, and he couldn't help but have some differences in his heart - Xu Zigui was still relieved to let her manage the food matter. Is she too confident in herself, thinking that she won't touch her life? Or does Xu Zigui have other plans?
Liu Lu thought about these silently, and at the same time set the meal as usual without any doubt, and went to the house to invite Xu Zigui to eat
"The slave and maid in the carriage do not choose to speak, and I hope that the girl will not go to her heart."
Xu Zigui saw that Liu Lu was interested in acting, so he naturally gave enough face to cooperate: "You have always been straightforward and fast-talking, why should I bother with you?" I'm fine. β
After speaking, he patted Liu Lu's hand and sat down.
After sitting down, Xu Zigui did not rush to move the chopsticks, but asked as if chatting: "How is the injury of the red sleeves?" β
Liu Lu didn't know what Xu Zigui meant by coldly mentioning the red sleeves, so he had to reply cautiously: "The doctor said that you can get out of bed in a while." β
Xu Zigui nodded: "You sisters, you take care of them on weekdays."
After that, he asked again: "After all these days, Zi Dai can find out where the traitor came from?" β
Sure enough, when the word mole was mentioned, Xu Zigui quickly caught a trace of panic in Liu Lu's eyes.
"Also...... hasn't ...... yet" Seeing Xu Zigui asking about this, it was somewhat unnatural, and said with a forced smile: "This traitor is extremely cunning, and it will take some time." β
Xu Zigui smiled meaningfully, and said: "It's really cunning." β
With just one sentence, Liu Lu's hand trembled a few times for Xu Zigui's meal.
Xu Zigui didn't break it in his eyes, and he didn't continue, but ate the bowl handed over by Liu Lu defenselessly.
Seeing that Xu Zigui was so defenseless against himself, Liu Lu was a lot more relieved, thinking that Xu Zigui was just suspicious. Xu Shi also didn't want to believe that he was the real murderer, and he was still very relieved of himself.
Thinking like this, Liu Lu exhaled with relief and said with a smile: "The girl is going to see Zidai in a while?" β
Xu Zigui nodded and instructed: "Although you haven't officially bowed, you should also treat Zidai as your master." β
When Zidai was first rescued, the Qin clan said that they would recognize Zidai as a righteous daughter.
Listening to Xu Zigui's reminder, the people waiting in the house remembered this stubble, and Lan Xiang saw that the gap between Liu Lu and Xu Zigui seemed to be gone, so he was also happy to have fun, and asked with a smile
"Girl, have you thought about giving Zidai a name?"
"That's what my mother thinks." Xu Zigui smiled and filled his mouth with a mouthful of porridge. smiled again: "I see that Dr. Zou has a different look at Zidai these days. Maybe it's been a long time and it's not known. β
"Shame, shame," as soon as Xu Zigui finished speaking, Lan Xiang laughed and teased Xu Zigui: "Girl, if you really hate to get married, why do you want to give us a few marriage matches." β
"You guys." Xu Zigui glared at Lan Xiang helplessly. smiled: "It was my mother who mentioned your marriage a few days ago. Let me give you some heart, and I will ask for your opinion. β
After saying that, he suddenly felt sad: "I naturally hope that you can stay by my side forever...... It's just that I can't be so selfish. Lose your happiness, do you say this is the reason? β
"Look at what the girl said," Lan Xiang saw that Xu Zigui was sad, and said jokingly: "In the future, the girl will go to the prince's mansion or the East Palace to marry a few of us, and then we can follow the girl to stay by the girl's side as a housekeeper mother, and we can not let the girl feel guilty and delay us, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?" β
It's really the best of both worlds, but Xu Zigui is not sure if Liu Lu can still believe it. These words couldn't be said to them, and Xu Zigui changed the topic with a smile
"Let's go see how Zidai is."
"Eh" Lan Xiang saw Xu Zigui smile again, naturally Xu Zigui said whatever he wanted, and volunteered to help Xu Zigui go over.
Xu Zigui was thinking about avoiding Liu Lu to talk to Zi Dai, this time Lan Xiang volunteered to accompany her, but it made her heart, and nodded and Lan Xiang helped her to Zi Dai's room.
"Girl"
Zidai couldn't get up and salute, so she had to be supported by the little maids and leaned on the pillow and nodded.
Xu Zigui nodded slightly to indicate that he had received her heart, and then waved his hand to send away the people waiting in the house, leaving only Lan Xiang and Zidai.
When Zidai saw Xu Zigui's battle, she knew that what she was supposed to come was coming. Besides, she has been thinking about it for a long time these days, and she doesn't really know which is more important, but because that person is a sister she grew up with, it makes her in a dilemma.
Lan Xiang saw that the atmosphere between the two of them was delicate, and couldn't help but think that Xu Zigui and Liu Lu were coming when they were in the carriage, and she also had a rough idea in her heart, maybe it was related to Liu Lu's matter.
"Not going to say it?" Xu Zigui raised his eyebrows, and after the two looked at each other without saying a word for a long time, Xu Zigui's eyebrows and eyes gradually cooled: "Or do you plan to ......be the same as her?"
"No......" Without waiting for Xu Zigui to finish speaking, Zidai hurriedly interrupted Xu Zigui's words: "No...... How could the slave ......?"
"Why wouldn't you?" Xu Zigui interrupted Zi Dai's words with a sneer, and his eyes were full of coldness: "Zi Dai, do you think that the way you are now, and you are injured because of me, so I can't bear to punish you, right?" β
"No...... No...... The girl ...... "Zidai seemed to be in pain because she was misunderstood, and her eyes were full of tears: "It's not such a girl, you listen to the slave maid......"
"Yes, girl, you listen to Zidai's explanation first......" Seeing that Zidai and Xu Zigui were both in tears, Lan Xiang couldn't help but feel a little sad, and tears kept rolling in her eyes: "Zidai won't be like you said." β
After that, he looked at Zidai again, and the dark color was a little anxious, "You should say it faster."
Zidai sighed: "Lan Xiang, it's better to know less about some things." β
Regarding the truth, Xu Zigui had already guessed almost the same, in fact, she didn't have to chase Zidai to ask. It's just that what she wants is an attitude of Zidai. Or the original sentence, why does the emperor like lonely ministers? A lonely minister means that his net worth and life are all the emperor's own, and he is alone, if he commits something one day, there will be no courtiers to intercede, and the only one he can rely on is the emperor. Such a person is the most loyal to the emperor.
Xu Zigui did not intend to let Zi Dai be a lonely minister, but asked Zi Dai to distinguish how to choose if there was a conflict between the two sides.
Last time because of the matter between Liu Lu and Liu Liang, Xu Zigui asked Zidai - if the servants below are too good, which one she wants to punish, they will all strike and threaten the master, what should the master do?
At that time, Zidai still chose to keep the willow green. The last time Zi Dai made a mistake for the sake of love, it can be said that if there was no Zi Dai's soft-heartedness last time, there would be no follow-up between Liu Lu and Liu Liang. Then, this time Liu Lu's betrayal may be avoided. Therefore, the butterfly effect is really existing.
"Girl, let's save some face for Liu Lu and let Lan Xiang go out."
This time, Xu Zigui was unrelenting: "I have enough face to give her, Xi Sheng's mistake was much lighter than Liu Lu's, isn't it that the whole courtyard has come to see how I punished Xi Sheng?" This time, Liu Lu turned his back to the master, and he should be watching the punishment in the palace. Our Weiguo Mansion is not thin on willow green. β
Zi Dai sighed, knowing that Xu Zigui had always had no room for sand in his eyes, not to mention that this time he was betrayed by the person he trusted the most, and he only brought blue incense with him, which was indeed for the sake of the past.
Lan Xiang didn't expect Liu Lu to betray such a thing, and covered her mouth in surprise and couldn't believe it: "Is there any misunderstanding between the girl...... Willow ...... How could she ...... willow green?"
"You ask her," Xu Zigui snorted coldly and raised his chin in the direction of Zidai: "Let her sue sΓΉ if you are true or false." β
Lan Xiang looked at Zi Dai again, and seeing that Zi Dai was still hesitating, she couldn't help but sigh: "I know that you have always been three points better with Liu Lu than with others, but if Liu Lu really betrayed the girl...... That's our enemy...... Have you figured it out......"
Zi Dai covered her face with her hands and cried bitterly as if she couldn't hold it back: "It was Liu Lu who came to sue the slave maid, saying that the slave maid would not be able to walk for the rest of her life......
Therefore, Liu Lu really became the so-called traitor.
Although he had already guessed the truth, when he heard that it was really confirmed, Xu Zigui still couldn't bear it in his heart. Not to mention Lan Xiang, although Xu Zi had just returned to her heart, when she heard the truth, she couldn't accept it: "How could it be...... The girl treats us so well on weekdays, how can Liu Lu bear to betray the girl? β
"It's Liu Liang," Zi Dai sobbed while telling Xu Zigui about what she had found out in the past few days: "The girl's guess is right, Liu Lu's back is indeed because of Liu Liang's instigation." β
After that, he paused, and said with difficulty: "Last time, the slave sent Yuerong to follow Liu Liang for a while, and found that Liu Liang had gotten ......closer to the people in the Six Princes' Mansion in the past few days" (To be continued.) )
