Chapter 31: Rumors (1)
Compared with her, Li Yueru is undoubtedly lucky, Lingxi picked up a life under the careful treatment of the imperial doctor, she fell into the water with Honghui, but fortunately did not die, it is really the favor of God, and Yinzhen is relieved, if even Lingxi is dead, he really doesn't know what to do.
After Lingxi woke up, Yinzhen had asked her about falling into the water, Lingxi seemed a little hesitant when answering, she said that she only remembered that she and Honghui ran around with a kite, and she felt a little dizzy when she ran near the Pujia Pond, so she wanted to sit on the edge of the pool and rest for a while before putting it, but she just sat down for a while and saw Honghui not afraid to slide into the water, and she accidentally fell down in a hurry, and then she didn't know what happened, and when she woke up again, she was on the bed.
When he learned that Honghui was no longer there, Lingxi was stupid, and then he began to cry nonstop, crying while saying that he was going to find Honghui. Don't look at the usual quarrels between her and Honghui, in fact, the relationship between the two is very good, Li is afraid that she will cry and hurt her body, so she coaxed for a long time before she barely coaxed, but she still kept crying.
The spring rain is thin, like this person's tears, continuous, this year's spring is a time that many people do not want to remember, I wish it had passed earlier, and finally ushered in the hot summer in such anticipation.
At this time, a terrible rumor began to circulate in the mansion, saying that Shizi did not fall into the water at all but was killed by someone, and the person who killed him was Ling Ruo, who used a kite to lure Honghui and Lingxi to the edge of the Pujia Pond, and then pushed them into the water in an attempt to kill them.
When Ling Ruo learned about this rumor from Wen Ruyan's mouth, she was shocked and frightened, the person who created this rumor had sinister intentions, and it was clear that she wanted to put her to death. Although this rumor has no basis at all, the people who died under the rumor do not know the geometry, and even the saints say: Rumors are fiercer than tigers. If it continues to spread like this, the situation will only become more and more unfavorable to Ling Ruo, and if Yinzhen becomes suspicious of her, it will really be indefensible.
Immediately ordered Shui Xiu to inquire about where this rumor came from, but unfortunately no one knew about it at all, only that it spread throughout the entire Baylor Mansion almost overnight, and it was in an uproar, and it was spreading everywhere.
On this day, Ling Ruozheng and Wen Ruyan embroidered the Eight Immortals Birthday Celebration Picture together, and in another month it will be Concubine De's birthday, although they can't enter the palace, but the gift still has to be presented, Shui Yue and Su Yu fan for the two respectively.
At that time, it was already summer, and the weather was extremely hot, and the house had prepared ice, but the quantity was limited and only a few Fujin were supplied, and Gegeges like Ling Ruo were not qualified to enjoy it, so they could only rely on a fan to cool off.
Ling Ruo was not surprised by Shui Xiu's futile return, the needle broke out with a royal blue silk thread, and the tip of the needle was spitting out the cold light in the sunlight that sprinkled the main hall, and she said without raising her head: "Sister, who do you guess released this rumor?" ”
Wen Ruyan smiled slightly, the slender and cold needle seemed to have life in her hand, constantly outlining vivid patterns on the brocade, "Don't you already have the answer in your heart, why ask me again." ”
The tip of the needle stopped as it passed through the brocade, Ling Ruo took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his hand and said coldly, "It's a pity that there is no evidence." ”
Wen Ruyan also stopped what she was doing and raised her eyes and said, "Since she has a heart for you, she will not leave evidence for you to check, not to mention that she is a side Fujin, and she is not something you can move now." Instead of dwelling on this, it is better to think about how to eliminate the impact of the rumors, especially on Lord Belle's side. ”
As soon as she talked about this, Ling Ruo was suddenly upset, since Yinzhen came back, she had only seen him in a hurry at Honghui's funeral, and she didn't even say a word, and she didn't know what Yinzhen was thinking now, and Liu Zhen, who was good-looking here, couldn't help frowning.
As he was talking, Xiao Changzi came in and said with a slightly strange expression: "Girl, Chang Fujin sent someone to pass the word, saying that it was for you to come over." ”
Since Honghui's incident, Chang Fujin has been seriously ill and has avoided anyone, Ling Ruo has been to ask for peace a few times, but he has been sent back, and now he actually took the initiative to summon him, I don't know why?
With a little apprehension, Ling Ruo saw Nala's clan, she leaned on the rosewood chair, wearing a moon-white flag suit, without a trace of color on her body, and even the simplest silver hairpin was pinned between her hair, which was extremely pure, thinking that it was because of the unintentional dress of the newly lost son. He is still extremely thin, but fortunately he is still in good spirits. To Ling Ruo's surprise, the Nian family, the Li family, the Ye family, the Guarjia family, the Song family and several other side Fujin and Shu Fujin were all there, and when they saw Ling Ruo coming in at this moment, their eyes were all focused on her.
"The concubine knocks on the body to see Chang Fujin, and Chang Fujin Wan'an." Facing the Nala clan, Ling Ruo couldn't help but feel a little guilty in her heart, although Honghui's death was not to blame her, but how much responsibility lay there.
Nala nodded slightly, motioned for Ling Ruo to sit down, stroked his sideburns and said, "I called you here today because I have something to say." The dark gaze swept over everyone one by one, "Recently, there was a rumor in the house, I think your sisters have heard a little, it is about Honghui, there are rumors that Honghui did not fall into the water, but was killed by someone, and the words are conclusive, even the name is there, it is among us." After that, his eyes fell on Ling Ruo and said lightly: "Ling Gege, what do you have to say?" ”
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was in an uproar, and the rumors were all heard, but they didn't expect Nala to ask so directly.
Ling Ruo didn't expect that the Nala clan summoned her for this matter, and listening to the meaning of her words, it seemed that she had the intention of asking the teacher to ask for guilt, so she was shocked at the moment, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The concubine is wronged, the concubine is regarded as if the prince has come out, and it is too late to love, how can she do such a heartbreaking thing." ”
A chuckle suddenly sounded in his ears, and he saw Nian covering his lips and saying coquettishly: "Everyone can say good things, and what you think in your heart is the most important." The so-called no wind and no waves, if Ling Gege really hasn't done it, where do the rumors come from. ”
Li frowned and said: "This is just a rumor, it can't be true, how could Ling Gege do something to hurt the son of the world with such love for the son, my sister is a knowledgeable person and has a noble status, how can she be like a woman in the market." ”
Nian sneered and said aggressively: "Then should you pretend to be deaf and dumb?" If it is really untargeted, how can it be known to everyone, and there must be a reason. My sister is good with Niu Hulu's family, so I help her speak, but she can't be deliberately frank. Sister, you might as well ask all the sisters here, can anyone believe that Niu Hulu has nothing to do with the death of the son? ”
Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and no one dared to speak out, even if someone really believed that Ling Ruo was innocent, but who would offend the powerful Nian clan for an unfamiliar Gege? What's more, all the women are more or less jealous, and Ling Ruo can be given a pure mind to live in a Gege body. If you don't fall into the well, it's polite, and you still plead? It's a big joke.
Li Shi was silent for a while, looking at Ling Ruo's gaze with a little apology, although she had the heart to help Ling Ruo, but in this situation, her words alone could not turn the tide.
Just as Nian was secretly proud, Nala, who had been silent, suddenly stood up and said word by word: "I believe her." ”
