Chapter 184: Maybe She's Not Dead
"The slave doesn't know." Ruby shook her head, still honestly kneeling in place.
"For Chu Liang, the red kite is only part of it, and in my opinion, Chu Liang's heart is undecided, so if you don't mind staying by my side for three years, if he is still so affectionate and righteous to you today, then I will personally go and tell Hao Xuan about it when the time comes, is that good?" Yun Yuexi looked at Hongyu and said, "You're not very old, so even if you wait, there's no hindrance, what do you think?" ”
"Slaves and maids listen to Miss." In the room, the fire of the earth dragon was burning, warm as summer, in stark contrast to the cold outside, and Hongyu's cheeks were red, and I didn't know if it was because it was too hot or because of shame.
"You're not wrong." Yun Yuexi still sighed after all, and looked sideways at the plum blossoms outside the window.
This is the room where my mother has been living before she got married, and the white plum outside the window falls with the cold wind, and for a while I can't tell whether it is plum or snow, so that Yun Yuexi's thoughts gradually drift away, as if falling into the memory of another world.
If she remembers correctly, Chu Liang will marry a ** Oiran with great fanfare in three years.
That Oiran is said to have been a young lady of the official family, but because her father was imprisoned, she was implicated and had to fall into the dust, but she didn't expect to be taken by Chu Liang on the first day she arrived there, and she was directly brought back to the house to be his wife.
At that time, many women were envious of this Oiran's good life and envy her good luck.
At that time, she didn't know that Chu Liang was Ouyang Haoxuan's person, but she knew that Chu Liang was quite a person with means in the capital, and the business of the dart bureau was booming, and the relationship with some important ministers in the court was also very good, which was on par with Tan San's ability.
It's just that Tan San is upright, but this Chu Liang is evil.
Yun Yuexi didn't dare to risk Hongyu's lifelong event, if Chu Liang married Hongyu now, what if he met that Oiran again in three years?
At that time, if Chu Liang really marries the Oiran, where will he put the red jade?
"Ruby is kneeling here like this?" When Ouyang Haoxuan stepped into the room, he found Hongyu honestly kneeling on the ground, while Yun Yuexi looked out the window.
"Ruby, you go down first!" Yun Yuexi came back to her senses, looked at Hongyu and said, "Remember what I said today." ”
"Slave maid remember Miss's orders." Hongyu got up, saluted respectfully, and saluted Ouyang Haoxuan before retreating.
"What's wrong?" Ouyang Haoxuan waited until Hongyu retreated, then looked at Yun Yuexi and said, "Hongyu did something wrong?" ”
"Chu Liang wants to marry her, and he came to Hongyu when I was unconscious, although Hongyu didn't agree, but she also thought about it, I didn't agree." Yun Yuexi took the clear water handed over by Ouyang Haoxuan, and said lightly: "You tell Chu Liang that if you have a heart, you will come back in three years to propose marriage." ”
"Okay." Ouyang Haoxuan pinched Yun Yuexi's nose and said with a smile: "If you are angry, I will kick Chu Liang away." ”
"No need," Yun Yuexi shook her head and said, "Just let him be in the capital, and I will observe for three years." ”
"Well, that's fine." Ouyang Haoxuan nodded, he has always been obedient to what Yun Yuexi does, and he doesn't know Chu Liang's temperament, if he can be restrained because of the red jade, it is also a good thing.
"There's one thing I've been forgetting to tell you." After Yun Yuexi finished talking about the red jade, she suddenly remembered the last conversation with the witch, and hurriedly told Ouyang Haoxuan about it, and then asked excitedly: "Do you say that your mother will also be alive?" ”
"This ......" Ouyang Haoxuan couldn't help but reply with some hesitation when he saw Yun Yuexi being so concerned: "Yuexi, you must know that the poison that person took at the beginning may not be exactly the same as the poison that his mother took, and if that person had already made a plan, he might have taken the antidote in advance, and ...... You can't open your mother's grave, can you? ”
"But what if Mother is still alive?" Yun Yuexi grabbed Ouyang Haoxuan's hand and said seriously: "You also know that the reaction after taking that kind of poison will never see the sun, can you bear to let your mother live in that kind of dark place?" ”
"Xi'er!" Ouyang Haoxuan hugged Yun Yuexi tightly in his arms and comforted in a low voice: "The witch may have said something just to disturb your mind, you must know that the person who attacked her mother at the beginning was probably the queen mother, so what she said is likely to be false, and her mother is dead." ”
"It's me who is useless......" Yun Yuexi was held in Ouyang Haoxuan's arms, and finally couldn't help but sobbed softly.
If she could, she really wanted to go back to before her mother was poisoned, so that she could save her mother and not have to suffer the pain of losing her mother again.
However, now that it is already a luxury to come back again, how can I ask for so much?
"It's not your fault, Xi'er, the most blared thing for this incident is actually me, it's me who didn't protect my mother." Ouyang Haoxuan gently patted Yun Yuexi's back, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.
Whether it is the Ruan family or Ruan Qingyun, the roots of these things all come from the original promise to his father.
But what kind of mood did my father have to ruthlessly let the person he once loved bear all this?
If he was in his father's position, would he let Yun Yuexi carry these for him?
Ouyang Haoxuan asked himself this, but his first reaction was no.
He would rather Yun Yuexi forget him, find an ordinary family, marry an honest ordinary person, and live a peaceful and stable life.
He absolutely couldn't tolerate that after his death, he would leave Yun Yuexi like his father left Ruan Qingyun, and let her face all the intrigues and tricks alone.
Even if she is very intelligent, even if her scheming is enough to resist all calculations, she is the person she has to protect for the rest of her life.
"Haoxuan, don't you have anything to ask me?" Yun Yuexi cried for a while, seemed to vent all the sadness that had accumulated in her heart before, breathed a sigh of relief, wiped away her tears, looked at Ouyang Haoxuan and asked, "I woke up that day and only worried about those things, now if you want to ask, just ask!" ”
"Nope." Ouyang Haoxuan shook his head, patted Yun Yuexi's head, and said with a smile: "No matter what happened before, the future of me and you will be rewritten by us hand in hand, Xi'er, even if the Ouyang Haoxuan you mentioned has changed his mind, I still want you to believe me, okay?" ”
For Ouyang Haoxuan, he didn't think about these things, but he finally decided that no matter what happened before, his little Xi'er chose to stay by his side, so he should give Xi'er a stable future.
When he went back that day, he thought a lot, and then sent someone to check the clues that might be related to this matter, and when he thought that his little Xi'er had been bearing these things by himself, he felt heartache, and he hated the person behind the scenes even more.
"Haoxuan, thank you." Yun Yuexi smiled slightly, stretched out her hand to hug Ouyang Haoxuan, and her heart was unprecedentedly calm.
The capital, Yunfu.
"Master, please save the second brother!" In Yun Yi's study, the Li family knelt in front of Yun Yi and begged: "The concubine immediately wrote a letter to the eldest brother, and asked the master to borrow 100,000 taels of silver from the concubine first." ”
"Li, are you crazy?" Yun Yi kicked on Li's body and said viciously: "Li Qiu and Li Jin have lost the old man's face, and they even want the old man to take out 100,000 taels to ransom them?" Now that the entire capital knows that they owe Xiangyang Gambling House 100,000 taels of silver, have you ever thought about what the emperor will think if the Yun family takes out this silver? ”
"Master, you lend the silver ticket to the concubine, and the concubine secretly goes to redeem people, and it will definitely not involve Yunfu at that time!" Although the Li family was also very angry with her uncompetitive second brother in her heart, it was her second brother in the end, so she could only continue to kowtow to Yun Yi and say: "Master, you can help the second brother who helps the concubine, otherwise when the eldest brother knows about it, he will blame the concubine for not saving him!" ”
Yun Yi couldn't help frowning when he heard Li mention Li Xiao's name, indeed, if Li Qiu doesn't grow up, there is still Li Xiao on it.
Li Xiao is a family member in the Li family in Yunzhou, and his prosperity in the court over the years has a lot to do with Li Xiao, if Li Xiao turns around and knows that he has not made any money, I am afraid that it will not be conducive to the relationship between the two families?
For a while, Yun Yi was really a little hesitant.
At this time, Steward Zhu knocked lightly on the door and said loudly outside: "Master, the second lady asks to see you!" ”
"You get up first!" At this time, Yun Yi still cared about the support of the Li family in Yunzhou, and naturally he didn't want the Mi family to see the Li family's embarrassed side, and when he saw the Li family get up quickly, he said unhappily: "Let her in!" ”
Mi Shi walked into the study, and when he saw Li, he said with a smile: "It turns out that my sister is here, Fu'er, bring over the things that have just been prepared." ”
"What is this?" Yun Yi saw Fu'er holding a brocade box, and couldn't help frowning and asked.
"Master, I also heard about the matter outside, and I am afraid that I can't take out so much silver in the house, and the ruyi in this is placed in the corner of the treasury, and the concubine feels that it is probably not needed, so I specially brought it to the eldest lady." Mi Shi explained lightly: "It's just that this matter has to be agreed by the master, this is the birthday banquet gift sent by the Li family in Yunzhou to the master." ”
Yun Yi was stunned for a moment, the affairs in the house over the years have been handled by the Li family, so he basically hasn't seen the gifts he received on his previous birthday, nodded, but felt that Mi's method was good, anyway, it was impossible for him to suddenly take out 100,000 taels, and now in order to save the people of the Li family, the gifts sent by their Li family will be temporarily taken out, and they will be redeemed after Li Xiao sends the silver ticket, so it doesn't seem that he can't be saved when he dies.
"Well, you did a good job, since there is a birthday gift from the Li family, it must be a priceless thing, arrange someone to go to the pawnshop, remember not to die, you still have to redeem it when you turn back." Yun Yi nodded with satisfaction and said.
"Okay, then the master will take a look, and then the concubine will be taken as a concubine." Mi glanced at Fu'er and motioned for her to open the brocade box.
"This ......" When Yun Yi saw the jade Ruyi, he suddenly slapped the Li family in the face, and roared angrily: "You actually used the Ruan family's dowry? ”
