Chapter 267: A White Lies

Without delay, Di Lian and the others left the Sun Mansion smoothly, and left Jinzhou smoothly, and hurried all the way north. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At this time, the capital was indeed in chaos as Xie Hengxu had expected.

......

Rui'er's disappearance was a heavy blow to the Xie family, and the Duchess Rongguo fell ill on the day her grandson was lost.

After Dilian and Xie Hengxu left, the two children had been living with their grandfather and grandmother, and now Rui'er was lost under Su's nose, and she was also sick, so as not to give Sister Ling'er too sick, so she sent the child away.

The princess Bai has a child to take care of who is younger than Brother Rui and Sister Ling.

The second lady has to take care of Xie Rongzhu and Brother Huan, who are not in good spirits.

Therefore, the only one who can pick up Sister Ling'er is Princess Shenghua.

Sister Ling was temporarily handed over to the Prime Minister's Mansion to take care of her, and the Xie family was not afraid that she would suffer, but these two smart and pleasing dolls were lost in the mansion for a while, and it seemed to be much colder in an instant.

In autumn, the flowers and trees in the garden also began to wither, Xie Hengyuan walked slowly under the corridor with his hands, his eyebrows frowning slightly on his unsmiling face, how to look depressed.

He had just returned from the Prime Minister's Mansion and had seen Sister Ling for his mother, and now he hurried to Hainaju to tell his mother about the child's current situation.

In fact, Sister Ling'er is not doing well, not that Princess Shenghua did not take care of her, but no matter how careful and careful, the child always does not eat well and does not sleep well, and often cries, as if she knows that her brother is suffering, and she is also very sad.

It is said that the twins have the same heart, but at this point, he really doesn't want to see the two children so sensitive.

The more Sister Ling made trouble, the more uneasy it became, and she was always wondering if Brother Rui had caused any hardships, and whether she had been beaten and bullied.

Seeing that the courtyard gate of Hainaju was approaching, Xie Hengxu gathered his thoughts, adjusted his expression, and hurried into the courtyard, all the way to the inner room.

At that time, the Duchess of Rongguo, Su Shi, was leaning on the bedside embroidery, and the red brocade in her hand was small, like a doll's belly pocket.

Xie Hengyuan's eyes were slightly sour, he lowered his eyes and saluted, and called softly, "Mother." ”

Since Brother Rui was lost, Su's demeanor has not been very good, and the already sick body that has been dragged down has not improved, but has become thinner.

Seeing him come back, she hurriedly put down the needle and thread in her hand, looked at him with a blank look, and her tone was eager and choked, "Ziyuan, have you seen Sister Ling?" How have you changed in the past few days? Is Mama Chang taking care of it well? Do you still cry at night? ”

Xie Hengyuan's throat was slightly astringent, and he reluctantly pulled out a smile, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, looked at Su Shi with gentle eyes, and spoke comfortably.

"Mother, don't worry, Princess Shenghua is very dedicated to taking care of Sister Ling'er, the child has been used to it these days, and she won't wake up at night, and she won't cry from time to time."

When Su Shi heard this, his eyes turned red, and he wiped his tears with guilt and distress.

"That's good. You don't know, the two children are very clingy to Lian'er, she left a few days ago, the child was sent to me, and she was going to wake up at night and cry for a long time, now... I'm just getting used to it now...", Yan has already cried at this point, covering his face and crying silently.

Xie Hengyuan's eyebrows frowned, and he stretched out his hand to support her and coax her softly, "Mother, your body is better, the doctor said that you should avoid great joy and sorrow, and you have to recuperate, even if it is for us, please take care of yourself." ”

Su Shi felt a pain in her heart every time she thought of the two children, she leaned on the head of the bed and wept silently, holding Xie Hengyuan's hand trembling slightly.

"Ziyuan, it's all my fault, Lian'er and Zixu handed over the two children to me to take care of..., I didn't take a good look at Brother Rui'er,... At the moment, I can't even take care of Sister Ling'er. ... If Brother Rui has three longs and two shorts, I will not only be sorry for Lian'er and Zixu, but I will die, and I will not have the face to see the ancestors and ancestors..."

Su Shi cried so far, holding his hands and beating his chest mournfully.

"Mother!" , Xie Hengyuan hurriedly stretched out his hand to restrain her movements, and a pair of cold phoenix eyes on his tense face were also slightly red, "Mother, don't think like this, that thief dares to break into my Rongguo Mansion to steal Brother Rui'er, it must be a plot and a careful plan, who would have thought that such an accident would happen?" At the moment, although Brother Rui is in their hands, but a few of them have something to ask, so they don't dare to hurt him easily, this matter Dad has asked Xueyu to send a letter to Lian'er and Zixu, I believe they have already known it now. Mother, even if you can't trust us, you should be able to trust Lian'er, she must have a way to save Brother Rui'er unharmed. ”

Su Shi was stunned when he heard this, and there were still tears on his face, but he asked Xie Hengyuan excitedly, "Letter, do Lian'er and Zixu know about Brother Rui'er?" Can you reply? What does the letter say, huh? ”

At this time, in addition to making up white lies to untie the Su family, the Xie family really doesn't know what to do to untie her heart knot, if this heart knot has been pressing her, according to the Su family's current illness, I'm afraid it is...

"The snow region travels thousands of miles a day, Lian'er and Zixu naturally received the news a long time ago, and there was no reply a few days ago, because Lian'er was focused on finding Brother Rui'er, today I went to the Prime Minister's Mansion and saw the letter sent back by the Snow Region, Lian'er already knew who the person who robbed Brother Rui'er was, and had already gathered people to save Brother Rui'er back." , Gently holding Su Shi's shoulder, Xie Hengxu sighed and said helplessly, "Mother, since Lian'er already knows and has made preparations, even if you don't believe in others, you have to believe that she is, what she wants to do must be foolproof, you have to take good care of your body, and Sister Ling'er will come back as soon as possible to take care of it personally, I believe that soon, Lian'er and Zixu will be able to return with Brother Rui'er." ”

Xie Hengyuan pursed her lips, her expression was solemn and serious, and she said it word by word, she couldn't help but believe it, Su Shi was stunned, and the gloomy color that had been tangled on her face for a long time gradually dissipated.

She stared at Xie Hengyuan's expression tightly, and after a while seemed to be sure that he was not coaxing herself, she slowly leaned back on the pillow mattress, sighed and said again and again, "Okay, that's good, like this..., so that I can rest assured." ”

The corners of Xie Hengxu's lips hooked, got up to help her lie down, and said calmly, "Okay, mother, it's time for you to rest, you will rest more after drinking medicine in the future, take care of your body as soon as possible, and wait for Brother Rui'er to come back." Seeing that Su Shi was lying down, he carefully tucked the corners of the quilt for her, smiled lightly and said softly, "I haven't told my father and second uncle about Lian'er's news, so let's go to the study and discuss it with them, and you can sleep peacefully, wake up, and your illness will be cured." ”

Su Shi nodded hurriedly after hearing this, pushed his arm and said repeatedly, "Go quickly, your father is worried that he can't sleep well all day long, you tell him the news." ”

"Well, I went."

Xie Hengyuan smiled, got up and stood by the bed for a while, before turning around and leaving, and when he got out of the courtyard gate of Hainaju, the smile on his face gradually subsided, and he was replaced by a depressed and uneasy face. (To be continued.) )
