The early morning sunlight penetrated the dim room through the thin window paper, taking away the faint candle light, and the warm and atmospheric boudoir was finely furnished.

On the carved shelf bed surrounded by a soft veil, Ling Yiyi opened her sad and confused eyes leisurely, staring at the veil on the top of the bed in a daze, what Zhao Xuanchen said last night couldn't help but flash through her mind, as well as her grandfather's unconditional protection, and the three women in strange clothes that she dreamed of after falling asleep.

Ling Yiyi was very sad in her heart, very emotional, and confused, she was really emotional, maybe she was too tired and too sad and rational last night, and when she woke up this morning, all her feelings ran out and harassed mercilessly.

Tielan took the wooden basin with warm water inside, put the wooden basin on one side neatly, turned around to tell the young lady to get up, and saw the young lady's blank eyes staring straight at the top of the bed, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Miss, it's time, it's time to get up!"

Tie Lan said as she lifted the quilt on Ling Yiyi's body with one hand, stretched out her little hand to hold Ling Yiyi's arm, and pulled up Ling Yiyi, who was still sleeping on the bed and contemplating.

In the past, at this hour, Miss had already been waited on by Mo Lan and Hui Lan to get up, and Miss's life has been taken care of by Hui Lan and Mo Lan, last night, Hui Lan and Mo Lan were beaten by the old general, and now they are still lying on the bed and unable to move, and she is only waiting for Miss to get up today.

Ling Yiyi was passively pulled up by Tie Lan, sat on the bed weakly, hung her head and sighed weakly, "Tie Lan, Miss, I only slept for a few hours from falling asleep to waking up!" Anyway, it's nothing to do today, Miss Ben won't get up, you can go back to sleep! ”

After speaking, Ling Yiyi took Tielan and turned around to get the dress, slumped back on the bed, pulled the quilt and covered herself, closed her eyes and turned her back to Tielan and faced the wall.

She is in a bad mood and doesn't plan to get up today, she just wants to sleep well, and when she wakes up, she forgets about Zhao Xuanchen and all her worries, and her mood will definitely improve.

Tie Lan took out a set of cigarette skirts from the wardrobe, the coat was carved with gold and hundreds of butterflies and wore a flowery cloud brocade jacket, her little face looked helplessly at Ling Yiyi who fell back on the bed, walked quickly to the bed, put the beautiful skirt on one side, reached out and pulled up the young lady who pretended to be asleep, and explained with an ugly face.

"Miss, the slave has something to tell you!"

Tie Lan knew that at this time, if she didn't tell Miss the truth, Miss was afraid that she would really stay in the room and continue to sleep, but ......, Tie Lan bit her head and lowered her head sadly, not daring to look at Ling Yiyi, who was looking at her.

"Miss, why are you still asleep? Now the whole Sheng'an is about to fall into trouble! ”

Ling Yiyi clutched the warm gorgeous quilt, wrapped her arms around her neck, raised her eyes and glanced at Tielan, who was in a bad mood and lowered her head.

"Oh, let's hear it!"

After confronting Zhao Xuanchen last night, Ling Yiyi, who knew that she had been deceived by others like a fool, thought of the bloodthirsty killing in Yilan Courtyard last night, and really didn't want to stay in the General's Mansion anymore, and she couldn't show any interest in anything.

Tie Lan raised her eyes and glanced at Miss's perfunctory appearance, feeling a little anxious, and hurriedly spoke worriedly.

"Miss, something is wrong! I don't know who is spreading rumors behind my back, but now the whole Sheng'an is spreading it, saying that the third watch of the young lady went to the Qinglou in the middle of the night and had a private meeting with a man! Now the old lady and all the masters in the house know that the old lady has just called someone to pass Miss to the Meditation Courtyard, and I am afraid that Miss will be sent down! Miss should get up quickly, let's go outside the mansion and wait for the old general, now only the old general can keep the young lady! Otherwise, the young lady is afraid that she will be sent to a remote village by the old lady, or driven to the family temple, and the young lady will be ruined for the rest of her life. ”

When Ling Yiyi heard this, she had already made up her mind in her heart, I was afraid that her reputation would be completely ruined! I don't know who is plotting against her behind her back, but she can't run away from those powerful families in Sheng'an, it's not whose young lady is targeting her, or the minister is targeting the General's Mansion, but in the end, she herself was too careless to give others a loophole, so she is in such a situation where she is now roasted on the fire!

Thinking about it, Tielan didn't tell those rumors to herself, I'm afraid that she would be sad! However, her current mind mirror is extremely silent, and it would be good if she could leave this general's mansion.

"Miss, you're talking! Miss, what should we do now! ”

The young lady is now very ugly outside, saying that there is a lack of men, and what are really unbearable! Miss is really in big trouble this time!

Ling Yiyi threw away the quilt, got out of bed with only her underwear, and took the beautiful cigarette skirt, the corners of her mouth hooked up a faint smile, such beautiful clothes, she is afraid that she will not have a chance to wear them in the future!

Ling Yiyi elegantly put on a fine cigarette skirt, and wore a brocade jacket with a coat of gold and hundreds of butterflies.

"What can I do? I'm afraid there's no way! ”

She didn't want to think of any way, so be it! As long as they don't get beaten, they can do whatever they want!

This is not only the old lady Ling, but also her eccentric mother, the third lady, and the good sisters of the general's mansion who don't like to see her.

Tie Lan's honest little face was a little surprised, and doubts flashed in her eyes, but she didn't speak anymore, and helped Ling Yiyi put on the dress on her body properly, and then took a thousand-year-old peach wood comb and helped Ling Yiyi pull a simple bun.

Tie Lan is the guard selected by Ling Feng, as a maid to protect Ling Yiyi's safety, these things of food, clothing, housing and transportation, they used to be taken care of by the dead picturesque, and later by Huilan and Mo Lan, she would only have a simple bun.

Ling Yiyi looked at the delicate little face in the bronze mirror, with some unfamiliar feelings, and glanced at the worried and awkward Tielan girl standing straight in the bronze mirror, and a faint warmth flashed in her heart.

No matter where she is now, at least, Tielan is still by her side!

After Ling Yiyi washed, she took Tielan to the boudoir, and strode towards the waiting in the courtyard, respectful Mama Zhou, and the two big maids beside the old lady, "Let's go!" ”

This grandmother really looks up to her, and actually sent Mama Zhou, who is most valued by her, and the eldest girl to Yilan Courtyard to wait for her, are you still afraid that she Ling Yiyi will not go!

Seeing that Miss Ling, who had an indifferent temperament, was about to walk by Mama Zhou's side, Mama Zhou immediately bowed respectfully to Ling Yiyi, "Miss, please stay!" ”

When Ling Yiyi heard this, she turned her head in confusion and glanced at Mama Zhou beside her, and the big girls behind her who had just raised their hands and made a half-salute Chunhua and Xia Yu.

Mama Zhou was wearing a simple and unpretentious dress today, and there was no mistake in walking, and the thoughtful and polite Chao Ling Yiyi saluted again, and said loudly, "The old lady ordered, the eldest lady has lost her virtue, and from now on, she will be sent back to the ancestral house and temple to fulfill her filial piety to the old ancestor, and she will start immediately without delay!" ”

Tie Lan was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly opened her mouth to ask, with a questioning tone. "Mama Zhou, how can the old lady ......?"

"Bold!" Chunhua and Xia Yu were dressed as gorgeously as young ladies, and when they heard someone questioning the old lady, they immediately shouted.

At the same time, Ling Yiyili's eyes swept and shouted coldly, "Tielan! ”

When Tie Lan heard this, she immediately took two steps back and stood behind Ling Yiyi respectfully.

Chunhua and Xia Yu suddenly glanced back at the cold and ruthless eldest lady, and they were shocked in their hearts and immediately bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes, "Please atone for your sin!" ”

When did the eldest lady have such a cold look, like a blade inserted into people's hearts, which made people shudder.

A trace of hesitation flashed in Mama Zhou's shrewd eyes, and she said softly and comfortingly, "Miss, the old lady also cares about Miss!" Now the rumors outside are getting worse and worse, and the eldest lady can only let the gossip attack if she stays in Sheng'an, and at the same time, it will also damage the reputation of the General's Mansion! The eldest lady doesn't think about herself, but also for the old general and General Ling Feng! Miss, it's better to go back to the ancestral house to avoid the limelight first, and after a few years, people will forget about it, and it will be a sunny day for the eldest lady to go back to the General's Mansion! ”

Mama Zhou didn't care about the surprised eyes of the two big girls behind her, she didn't deal with the eldest lady once or twice, she knew in her heart that the eldest lady was not as useless as people looked like she was, nor was she as pampered and arrogant as before, and the eldest lady might be the person who hid the most in the General's Mansion.

Yesterday, the eldest lady secretly left the mansion, and everyone in the house knew about it, and the old general did not deal with the eldest lady, so he knew that the eldest lady was not ordinary in the old general's heart, even if the eldest lady left the general's mansion today, she would be able to come back another day!

Ling Yiyi smiled at the corner of her mouth, her deep gaze was full of meaning, and she glanced at Chunhua and Xia Yu's sloppy and contemptuous posture, "Tielan, go and clean up your salute, Chunhua will call Miss Ben's close guards and go back to the ancestral house with Miss Ben!" ”

It's a long way back to the ancestral home, and having a guard can save you a lot of trouble, at least someone can help drive the horses and beat the bad guys!

"Miss!" Mama Zhou glanced at Ling Yiyi in embarrassment, gritted her teeth and lowered her eyes and continued, "Miss, your close guards were asked for by the future Concubine Xuan and Fifth Miss yesterday!" ”

After Mama Zhou finished speaking, she cautiously glanced at Ling Yiyi, whose expression remained unchanged, and said no more.

Tie Lan stared at Chunhua and Xia Yu who flashed sneering in her eyes with resentment, and didn't know how to comfort her family like an abandoned master, or maybe it was a master who had been abandoned by the General's Mansion.

"Heh, the future Princess Xuan is indeed more than a cut higher than Miss Ben's status!"

The smile on the corner of Ling Yiyi's mouth deepened, an invisible dark light flashed in her glass-like eyes, and she said softly in a soft voice, "I think that grandmother has prepared a carriage for Yiyi, Tielan will help Miss Ben clean up her salute, and Chunhua and Xia Yu will help Huilan and Mo Lan!" Let's go! ”

"No!" After saluting, Tielan walked towards the backyard wing with the dissatisfied spring flowers and summer rain.

Ling Yiyi looked at the three people who disappeared, and then carefully looked at the grass and trees in the Yilan courtyard, the rockery pool and green bamboo were all arranged by her father himself, and she had lived in the yard for more than ten years, and her feelings were naturally very deep.

I thought that she would marry the second prince from Yilan Academy, which is now King Xuan, but I didn't expect the world to be impermanent, but in a few months, every qiē became unfamiliar, and even she became uncontrollable, not to mention the ever-changing Sheng An.

"Mama Zhou, grandmother asked Yiyi to set off immediately, I'm afraid I don't want to see Yiyi again!"

Ling Yiyi retracted her affectionate gaze, looked at Mama Zhou who was looking at her in front of her with a smile, her smile was like a flower blooming in March, she took two steps forward and lowered her head and whispered in Mama Zhou's ear.

"Mama Zhou, who did Xue Rou ask for Miss Ben's close guard? Is it a mother? Grandmother? Or grandfather? Can you tell me a thing or two? ”

It was obviously a question, and it was as thin as a mosquito's chirp, but it could be heard in the ears of the cautious Mama Zhou, but it was like Ling Chi's pain all over her body, and the fear in her heart was even worse.

Mama Zhou's face was pale, she lowered her eyes and glanced at the courtyard where there was no one around, thinking that all the servants and maids in Yilan Courtyard were beaten yesterday, and now she is afraid that she will not be able to get up from the bed, looking at Ling Yiyi, whose face does not change and is as indifferent as water, the fear in her heart is like ice.

"Eldest Miss, the third lady helped the fifth lady to speak to the old lady, but the old general did not express his position!"

Ling Yiyi's eyes were condensed, she already understood a general idea in her heart, the corners of her mouth hooked back a few steps, and said loudly, "Yiyi can't be filial piety in front of her grandfather, grandmother and mother in the future, and I bother Mama Zhou to help Yiyi bring a word, just say that although Yiyi is not in the General's Mansion, Yiyi will miss them!" ”

After Ling Yiyi finished speaking, she raised her feet and walked towards the outside of Yilan Courtyard, lowering her eyes to cover the cold glow under her eyes!

The third lady, who is also her biological mother, is so biased that she actually helps her sister rob her sister's guards, even if the guards themselves don't want it, they can rob and give it or give it, and the meaning is 108,000 miles away.

There is also grandmother, who actually agreed, they have asked their wishes, those guards were personally selected by their father, they are good, they didn't ask themselves, they quietly snatched them to Ling Xuerou, it is really chilling!

Mama Zhou stood respectfully in place and looked at the straight petite figure, I don't know why, she always felt that the eldest lady's reaction was too weird, and she didn't make a lot of noise like in the past? The eldest lady is really the deepest lady in the city of the General's Mansion!

Tie Lan was dressed as a girl in green clothes, with her sword hanging from her waist and two large packages straddling her back, and turned out of the backyard, holding the seriously injured Huilan in her hands! Behind him were the two old ladies Chunhua and Xia Yu, who were holding Mo Lan in their hands, and Mo Lan and Hui Lan were also carrying burdens on their shoulders.

Chunhua and Xia Yu glanced at Mama Zhou, who didn't know what they were thinking, and shouted, "Mama Zhou! ”

Mama Zhou immediately put away her dazed look, nodded solemnly, raised her feet and walked towards the outside of the courtyard, "Well, send them to the back door to get into the carriage!" ”

Tielan didn't want to pay attention to Mama Zhou, Chunhua and Xia Yu, and firmly supported Huilan with both hands to walk out, and the grievances in her heart had nowhere to say.

Where the buttocks of Huilan and Mo Lan had been drugged on their backs, blood flowed out of the cracks again, staining the skirts behind them red, and the two of them, who were pale and sweating profusely, gritted their teeth and followed Tielan out with difficulty.

They already knew that the young lady was driven back to the ancestral house by the old lady, thinking that the young lady had not abandoned them, and their hearts were bitter, astringent and reassuring, and the young lady was the person they had to be loyal to, and the young lady did not abandon them.

Ling Yiyi walked out of Yilan Courtyard, and saw the third lady with an ugly face, Ling Xuerou, who had a young face and an arrogant look, stood outside the courtyard with hatred of iron and steel!

"Yiyi......" The third lady took two steps forward, and just wanted to reprimand a few words, but was interrupted by Ling Yiyi.

Ling Yiyi looked at the third lady with a faint smile, "Is my mother here to see Yiyi?" Yiyi still thinks that her mother's daughter has always been the only one in Xuerou? ”

The innocent smiling face is as lovely as a child, and there is a strong irony in the words, here and now, she is leaving, and her mother still wants to reprimand herself, and her heart and eyes are really biased to the navel.

"How can my sister say that about my mother, my mother also cares about my sister!"

Ling Xuerou, who was holding the third lady, stepped forward unhappily, and glared at Ling Yiyi with proud eyes.

Ling Yiyi gently played with her sleeves, looked at Tie Lan and the others who came out behind her, and then glanced at several familiar guards behind Ling Xuerou, including Cai Yue and Li Qin'er, the female guards who were left in Yilan Courtyard by her that day and were recognized by her.

"Concerned about me? Then may I ask my mother, Yiyi is about to go back to the ancestral house, the road is dangerous, can my mother return Yiyi's close guards to Yiyi, so as to protect Yiyi's safety all the way! ”

When the third lady heard this, her expression was stunned, and she returned to normal, looking at Ling Yiyi with an apologetic expression, "Yiyi, your grandfather has already sent an escort team to you, and he will definitely be able to protect your safety!" ”

The third lady explained gently, reaching out to grab Ling Yiyi's hand.

The smile on the corner of Ling Yiyi's mouth was even worse, she skillfully dodged the third husband's hand, and turned sideways to salute the third lady, "Yiyi is here to say goodbye to her mother!" I don't know when I'll see you when I say goodbye! ”

After that, Ling Yiyi no longer paid attention to the third lady with a stiff face, and no longer looked at the ostentatious Ling Xuerou, and took Tielan, Huilan, and Mo Lan to bypass the slaves watching the play, and strode out of the hand door of the General's Mansion with their heads held high.

She didn't want to stay in the General's Mansion anymore, and leaving at this time was exactly what she wanted!
