Sun Xiaoniang's sending of the maid made Chu Xi know that she had now become the target of the palace, but on the other hand, she also clearly knew how weak her foundation in the Kang Wangfu was, not to mention the maid sent by Sun Xiaoniang, she didn't dare to use it, even the maid arranged by Father-in-law Lu, she was not too relieved.

Pei Shu happened to be out of the house for the past two days, except for that day when she was angry and provoked Qin Xiaoshuang, she never left her yard in the following time, so that Sun Xiaoniang and some other concubines couldn't catch her mistakes even if they wanted to.

Qin Xiaoshuang learned that the two maids sent by Sun Xiaoniang to Chu Xi were sent to the embroidery room, and couldn't help but sneer in the direction of Sun Xiaoniang's yard: It's really a useless thing, and it still wants to climb on my head.

Although Qin Xiaoshuang has lost her momentum now, she has been in King Kang's mansion for the longest time, she knows that those people can be bought, those people can be used, and if she wants to inquire about some news that is beneficial to herself, she can just spend some silver.

The prince was left in the palace for the past two days, but he always has to come back, and what Qin Xiaoshuang wants to know is the specific time when he will come back.

When the little maid in the courtyard came to visit Mrs. Qin with Chu Xi, Chu Xi frowned, she suppressed her temperament and didn't go out, but she didn't expect trouble to come up.

But for such a person who has fallen to the bottom, Chu Xi is not not afraid, and there is a precedent for the prince to support her on the day she enters the door, and she looks down on Qin Xiaoshuang.

Chu Xi greeted him with a smile, and when he saw Qin Xiaoshuang, he smiled even brighter, but there was a hint of threat in his tone: "What? Want to take advantage of the prince's absence to come and find trouble? But I'd advise you to weigh the consequences of messing with me before you do anything! ”

Qin Xiaoshuang also laughed, without any annoyance, without waiting for Chu Xi to open his mouth to invite her in, he missed her entering the house, walked around the house, looked at it for a while, turned his head and smiled: "My sister is really a blessing, the furnishings here are not worse than my original Qin village!" ”

Chu Xi showed a trace of disgust on his face: "But my sister is not as good as before, but my sister and I will get better and better, what is Qin Xiangju, everything here will only be better than Qin Xiangju in the future." ”

"What Miss Chu said is, with your face alone, I have already lost, a face that looks five or six points similar to the former princess, how can I also divide the feelings of the prince in two." Qin Xiaoshuang looked at Chu Xi with a smile, and clearly told her that she was just borrowing someone else's strength.

Chu Xi clenched her hands, and there was a wave in her heart, she could live in the palace with the identity of a substitute, but she couldn't climb to the highest position with this identity, in the end, she still had a poor background, but she must not let Qin Xiaoshuang look down on herself: "You don't have to provoke me, I know that I am a substitute for Shen Jiahe, but so what, as long as the prince likes it, one day I will replace Shen Jiahe in the prince's heart." ”

After listening to this, Qin Xiaoshuang held her stomach and laughed, laughed for a long time, and even laughed out of tears: "Are you telling me a joke?" I thought you fireworks girls were smarter, but I didn't expect you Chu Xi to be so naïve. Who is Shen Jiahe? That's the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, a talented daughter of the emperor's own title, you are a person in the dust who still wants to compete with the bright moon? ”

Chu Xi's eyes were red because of Qin Xiaoshuang's laughter, and after listening to her words, the unwillingness in his heart all came up: "You have been fighting with Shen Jiahe for so long, and everyone has already left, but you still ended up like this, and now you are still praising Shen Jiahe in front of me, I really feel sorry for you, no matter how powerful Shen Jiahe is, she is just a woman, to put it bluntly, she is just from a better background than us people, maybe she is not as good as me compared to her." ”

Qin Xiaoshuang chuckled, raised his eyes and glanced at her contemptuously: "Not as good as you?" Do you mean your face, or your piano skills, or your dancing? In my opinion, not only your face only has three points of her beauty, but even your pipa is not half of Shen Jiahe's. ”

"Qin Xiaoshuang, what do you mean, if Shen Jiahe really does everything you say, then the prince can still give her a leave of absence, the prince will never forget her now, but it's just because what you can't get is good." This is said to Qin Xiaoshuang, but it is also self-comforting.

But after hearing this, Qin Xiaoshuang's expression became even more contemptuous, and Chu Xi was even more angry and said even more carelessly: "In my opinion, Shen Jiahe is not fake and high-looking, what pipa skills are superb, what dance skills are outstanding, and it is not something that is practiced to seduce men, what is the difference between it and our Qinglou women." ”

"What did you say!" Just after Chu Xi's last word fell, Pei Shu's angry shout suddenly came from outside the door.

Chu Xi turned back suddenly, Pei Shu was standing at the door looking at her with an angry face, she looked at Qin Xiaoshuang in a daze, and when she saw the flash of the smile, she knew that she was careless, and hurriedly knelt down and begged Pei Shu for mercy: "Wang ...... Lord, the slave and maid don't mean that, the slave and the maid...... It's all because of her, it's all because she provokes me. ”

Qin Xiaoshuang looked very aggrieved: "I am praising Sister Shen every word, and the slave maid kindly reminded Miss Chu not to forget her duty, but she slandered Sister Shen so much, I really don't know what to do!" ”

Pei Shu glanced at Qin Xiaoshuang with a cold face, after so many things happened, how could he not know about Qin Xiaoshuang's tricks, but he couldn't tolerate anyone slandering Shen Jiahe, let alone Chu Xi slandering her, so he immediately ordered his subordinates: "Come on, drag this woman who doesn't know what to do for me out and beat the twenty boards." ”

"Don't want it, don't let the slave and maid spare it!" Chu Xi's whole body was lying on the ground begging for mercy, but Pei Shu didn't look at her.

Seeing this situation, Ah Lai knew that the prince would not be soft-hearted, so he immediately ordered the two guards behind him: "Don't hurry up and drag people away." ”

Chu Xi is a delicate and weak woman, not to mention the twenty boards, even if one board goes down, half of her life is gone, and after the twenty boards are finished, the whole child is a dying bloody person.

Ah Lai realized that he was afraid that this person would not be well, so he hurriedly came to Pei Shu and said: "The slave saw that this Chuxi girl was beaten badly, do you think you want to ...... it?"

But Pei Shu was so angry that he didn't want to care about her life or death now, so he directly interrupted him and ordered: "Throw people into the side courtyard, life and death are up to you!" ”

Qin Xiaoshuang stood in the gloomy house in the side courtyard and looked at Chu Xi who was covered in blood, and a faint sense of happiness rose in her heart, she imagined that it was not Chu Xi who was sleeping here, but Shen Jiahe, who had turned herself into this, as long as she fantasized like this, she felt that the whole person was very happy.

It took a long time for Qin Xiaoshuang to come out of the room, she looked at the two little guys in the side courtyard, and ordered in a cold voice: "The prince said that this slut lives and dies, and if something happens, there is no need to go to the prince's return, as for tonight's food, I see that she can't eat it, so there is no need to send it." ”

Chu Xi is just a daughter of Fireworks Willow Lane, with no power behind her, and these two subordinates don't want to do much, so they nodded and agreed.

Early the next morning, Father-in-law Lu was still instructing the little guy in the study to sort out some moldy books to dry, and when he turned his head, he saw the little guy in the side yard running over in a hurry, and after listening to the reply, his brows couldn't help frowning: "Dead?" ”

Gonggong Lu shook his head, he wanted to observe the matter of the prince bringing back a Qinglou woman for a while and then consider whether to report it to the queen, but he didn't expect that the person would die so soon.

Gonggong Lu could only hurry back to Pei Shu: "Miss Chu's body is not stopped, and she has already gone this morning." ”

Pei Shu was sorting out the paperwork in his hand, and only nodded at the moment, not feeling very sad in his heart: "Find a place to bury people." ”

King Kang's Mansion died of a woman who was somewhat similar to Shen Jiahe, and soon a good deed person passed the word to Shen Jiahe, but she didn't care, now that Qin Xiaoshuang had been punished, she and Pei Shu were just strangers, and she had more important things to deal with.

A few days ago, Zhou Qian sent her a letter, saying that she asked her to hurry up and pick up the Susu girl who had entrusted him to take care of before.

Bai Wei helped Shen Jiahe change into men's clothes and said with emotion: "This Susu girl hasn't left for so long, I'm afraid she doesn't know where to go alone, otherwise Miss will take her into the house, and arrange an errand casually." ”

Shen Jiahe shook his head: "I gave her enough silver taels before, but she still hasn't left, and I don't know what the situation is, let's go over and see it first." ”

Zhou Qian was in a hurry in the room, but the Susu girl just looked at him with a look of tears, and when he didn't know how to comfort him, he finally heard a knock on the door, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Su guessed who the visitor was, so he hid in the room to tidy up his face, and Zhou Qian hurriedly greeted him alone: "My eldest lady, you are here." ”

"It's just that you are so embarrassed to eat with multiple people?" Shen Jiahe glanced at him suspiciously, and then walked towards the house.

"I beg you to take her away!" Zhou Qian looked like he was about to cry, and complained after Shen Jiahe: "I can't keep her like this as a born person." ”

Bai Wei scolded him unhappily: "That's our young lady raising someone's family, and the young lady gave you a lot of money before." ”

Zhou Qian glanced at Bai Wei with a bitter face, and then arched his hand at Shen Jiahe as if resigned to his fate: "Okay, okay, in this case, I will return the rest of the money to you, and you will take people away, what is the matter with me!" ”

Shen Jiahe suddenly felt funny, but he didn't pay attention to him, and only looked at the indoor environment: "You're a lot cleaner, it shouldn't be your credit, what about Miss Susu?" ”

Su Su walked out of the inner room and stepped forward to give Shen Jiahe a blessing: "Su Su has seen Miss." ”

Shen Jiahe nodded and motioned for her to sit down opposite her: "Susu, didn't I give you silver before?" You don't have a place to go? ”

Su Su raised his eyes and glanced at Zhou Qian, and then replied in a low voice: "I have always been dependent on my father and the two of them, but now that my father is gone, my house is almost uninhabitable, before I sold myself into slavery, and Miss placed me here, isn't it for Zhou Gongzi to be a maid?" ”

Zhou Qian stood aside and rolled his eyes: "Call me Master Zhou, and besides, I don't need any maids, we are different from men and women, and it is really inappropriate to live under the same roof like this." ”

Su Su bit her lip, and the handkerchief in her hand was clenched tightly: "Is Zhou Gongzi disgusted with Su Su?" But the clothes that are washed are not clean? Or is it not delicious to make vegetarian dishes? ”

When Zhou Qian heard this, he stood there silent for a long time, since this Su Su lived here, his life has improved a lot, not only does he not have to find a way to get food every day, but it is much cleaner inside and out.

Compared with wandering alone and alone, the current vegetarian life makes him feel a little at home and has a little bit of fireworks.

But there are always bad things, for example, when he studies the stars on weekdays, as long as he sees this girl dangling in front of him, he feels that his heart is messed up, and he can't settle down.

He is a person who wants to achieve a great cause, and he can't be ruined in the hands of a little girl, after thinking about it, Zhou Qian still thinks that it is better to send people away quickly.

Shen Jiahe saw that the two were tired, so he only smiled softly, and then did not persuade Su Su to leave, but persuaded Zhou Qian: "Don't call yourself a master, anyway, you are also a fake Taoist, it is better to simply change your career completely." ”

Shen Jiahe has a lot of ideas to make money, and if he moves a little modern things casually, he believes that they will set off waves here, if Zhou Qian can become her agent outside, he will definitely be able to earn him a lot of money.

"What kind of fake Taoist, five elements gossip, astrological destiny these things, if you can find one more powerful than me, I will immediately change careers, besides, how can it be so easy to change careers!" Zhou Qian muttered.

Bai Wei covered her mouth and laughed, directly piercing his face: "Let's not talk about the truth or not, anyway, the slave maid has never seen a Taoist priest who loves money like you!" ”

"Hey, you little girl!" Zhou Qian glared at Bai Wei fiercely.
