Volume 1 Chapter 4 The One Who Wants His Life
The bride thought that everyone was just coaxing, but she didn't expect that someone really lifted her hijab, not to mention that it was still the county lord of Yuxi, the anger that suddenly rose in her heart could only be suppressed, biting her red lips lightly, and raising her willow eyebrows,
"Doesn't the county lord of Yuxi know that this red hijab should be lifted by the husband?!"
Lin Junyu's small and delicate melon seed face next to him also showed indignation, but because of the identity of the county lord of Yuxi, he had to quickly order the maids to pick up the red hijab.
"The county lord of Yuxi is still in the boudoir, so he naturally doesn't know the rules of this red hijab." Lin Bingyan snorted softly.
If others heard it, they wouldn't care about anything, but it was the lord of Yuxi, and now he was twenty years old and unmarried, which was a joke in the capital, and now Lin Bingyan said such sarcastic words in front of everyone, which naturally caused everyone to secretly gasp.
On the contrary, Yinyuxi's bright and beautiful eyes just glanced at Lin Bingyan, and said with a smile that was not angry,
"Lin Gongzi only knows that the county lord is not married, but he doesn't know that the county lord has always been unruly, not to mention that you are not clamoring to see the bride, now that the county lord has let you get your wish, you are talking about the county lord."
Before Yinyuxi's words fell, she heard the bride's coquettish voice, "The prince ...... the world"
Originally, when they heard what the county lord said, several sons were about to respond with laughter, but they didn't want Cheng Shizi to come back at this time, so they hurriedly put away their laughter.
"What's going on?!" Cheng Shizi's moon-like eyes were deep and thorough, sweeping over everyone as if he could see people invisible, and finally his gaze fell on Yin Yuxi.
"Husband, it was the county lord of Yuxi who lifted the red hijab of Xinchun." Tan Xinchun's eyebrows were frowned, but his clear eyes were a little aggrieved.
"Xi Niang said that this red hijab should have been the first to be lifted by her husband, and now it is lifted by others, I am afraid it is very unlucky."
Yin Yuxi just pursed her lips lightly, and after listening to Tan Xinchun's words, she yawned lightly, "It's too early today, I'm a little sleepy, Cheng Shizi should hurry up and send the bride back to the happy room, and the county lord should also find a place to sleep for a while." As he spoke, he raised his legs and walked through the crowd with a sigh of relief.
Tan Xinchun couldn't be angry, but seeing Cheng Shizi's face slightly gloomy, she could only swallow this breath secretly.
"Let's all go to the front yard." Cheng Shizi just said lightly, and then hugged Tan Xinchun and went to the backyard.
The sleepiness on Yin Yuxi's face had faded away, and he pursed his lips and muttered, "Today's carnival is still interesting." ”
"County Lord, aren't you going to drink in the front yard?" Hua Luo watched the county lord go straight to Xiyuan, so she asked more.
"No, let's go to Concubine Cheng to sit down and ask for peace."
This Cheng Wang Ye has two hostesses, one is the noble and domineering Princess Lan, Lan is the princess of the Xiongnu royal family, and the ancestor emperor gave the Lan family to Cheng Wang Ye in order to make peace with the Xiongnu. There is also a gentle and virtuous side concubine Yao, Yao's family was born in a scholarly family, and was brought back from Jiangnan by Prince Cheng back then.
Yin Yuxi lost his father and mother in his early years, and he was withdrawn, and he was noble, he had few playmates, he met Yao when he was young, and Yao always regarded Yin Yuxi as his own sister, so Yin Yuxi was also a little close to this Yao, even if Yin Yuxi had a bad relationship with Chengwangfu now, it did not affect the relationship with Yao.
Concubine Yao lives in the West Garden, the West Garden is much quieter than the South Garden of the main concubine, and no one saw it when Yin Yuxi walked in, "I'm afraid they are all greeting guests in the front yard, let's just settle quiet." So saying, he pushed the door open, and went into the house, and went straight into the inner room.
"I'll sleep for a while, and you guys will stay outside and keep watch."
Yin Yuxi didn't want to sleep, just trying to be quiet here, but she didn't expect to be sleepy after lying on the bed for a while, and even the more she slept, the more she slept.
The front yard was lively, the bride Tan Xinchun had already changed her wedding dress, standing beside Cheng Shizi Cheng Jianian and smiling like a flower, Cheng Shizi drank everyone's toast, slightly drunk, Tan Xinchun helped him sit at the main table.
At this moment, a slave hurriedly ran over and said in a panic: "Oh no, Xiyuan is gone!" Lord Wang, Xiyuan is gone! ”
Everyone subconsciously looked towards the west, and sure enough, there was already black smoke rising over there, Cheng Wangye suddenly stood up, looked next to the side concubine, and saw that his two sons were there, and felt a little at ease, and then asked the slave, "Now that everyone is in the front yard, how can Xiyuan walk in the water in a good way!" Why don't you hurry up and put out the fire! ”
Concubine Yao was also a little strange, after all, it was her mansion, she hurriedly saluted Prince Cheng, "Lord, the concubine has taken the first step." ”
Cheng Wang Ye waved his hand at everyone and said with a smile: "Everyone don't be impatient, just drink to your heart's content." These household chores are taken care of by their own husband. After speaking, he leaned over and gave a few words to the princess, and took the housekeeper to the backyard.
Concubine Yao and Prince Cheng rushed to Xiyuan one after another, and at this time they saw Shen Ruoting rushing into the burning room regardless of the obstruction, and Concubine Yao saw the two maidservants standing at the door, and her heart jumped suddenly.
"Lord Wang, I'm afraid that the county lord of Yuxi is resting in my room. Lord, hurry up and think of a way, such a big fire can kill people! ”
Hearing this, Prince Cheng hurriedly waved his hand and ordered, "Chengfu, hurry up and order some more people to put out the fire as soon as possible!" He put his arms around Yao, while comforting,
"Xinlian, don't be anxious, the county lord of Yuxi has always been expensive, and he will definitely be fine. Besides, didn't Shen Gongzi go in and save him? ”
In the room where there was a fire, Shen Ruoting pushed away the fallen utensils with his bare hands, and walked towards the inner room, behind the thick smoke curtain, Yin Yuxi lay motionless on the bed, he hurriedly ran over to pick up Yin Yuxi, and when he came back, the fire was about to burn the beam, and the falling debris blocked the way out.
Shen Ruoting had no choice but to pat Yin Yuxi's face fiercely, "Jade breath, jade breath!" Wake up, wake up! ”
Soon, Yin Yuxi woke up faintly, and when she saw the scene in front of her, she thought she was dreaming, and subconsciously pushed Shen Ruoting away, not wanting her arm to touch the flames, she gasped for air, and suddenly woke up, "What's going on?" ”
"Don't ask, did you see the basin?" Shen Ruoting pointed not far away, watched Yin Yuxi's gaze fall there, and hurriedly pushed her, "Go and splash the water on yourself and go out through the window." He gritted his teeth and wanted to get up, but found that he was pushed by Yin Yuxi just now, and it seemed to hit the corner of the table, and the pain made him unable to get up.
Yin Yuxi couldn't think about it so much, picked up the basin and poured it into herself, and when she was about to climb to the window, she remembered that Shen Ruoting was still there, she retracted her feet again, and yelled at Shen Ruoting,
"Why don't you hurry up, hurry up!" In the smoke, she couldn't see Shen Ruoting sweating profusely, only saw him stumbling up, Yinyu was very anxious, thinking that Shen Ruoting did it on purpose, even so, she turned around and grabbed Shen Ruoting, only to notice his strangeness, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Shen Ruoting's bright eyes looked at Yin Yuxi, his pale face was bright red, and his tone was difficult, "Yuxi, you go first." Leave me alone. ”
He endured the pain and was about to push away the jade breath hard, but he didn't expect the silver jade breath to reach out and wrap his waist, in his eyes, the original cold and arrogant facial features of the silver jade breath were only tenacious, and he had to grit his teeth and follow the silver jade breath.
The two came to the window with difficulty, Yin Yuxi pushed Shen Ruoting to the window first, and when she saw the people outside, she hurriedly shouted: "He's injured, carry him out first." ”
The fire grew bigger and bigger, and it was impossible to extinguish it.
Outside the West Garden, Yin Yuxi sat in the pavilion in embarrassment, letting Hua Luo and Juexiao help her wipe it, and when she saw Yao coming over, she hurriedly asked, "Is Shen Ruoting okay?" ”
Yao Shi glanced at her, "In the past, even if you had everything that everyone passed on, today is good, Shen Gongzi sacrificed his life to save the county lord of Yuxi, and the county lord of Yuxi also saved Shen Gongzi regardless of his safety...... Alas, I really don't know what to say about you. ”
Yin Yuxi reluctantly tugged at the corners of her mouth, "I'm used to it, they can say whatever they like." Looking at her burned arm, she gritted her teeth, "It's a pity that this Xiyuan has to be wronged by Sister Yao for a while." ”
"What's this, it's just a room, and the most important thing is that people are okay." Yao was also careful to help Yinyu rest on the plaster.
I wanted to say something, but when the words came to my mouth, I swallowed it back, Yin Yuxi was a little strange, why did Xiyuan just go out of the water today, if Cheng Shizi wanted his own life, why let Shen Ruoting come over to save himself. What's in it? Just when Yin Yuxi couldn't figure it out, several men walked out carrying a wrapped corpse, one of the corpse's arms was shaken out, Yin Yuxi saw the bracelet on his arm, his eyes were stunned, isn't this Chang Jingran's bracelet?!
"Wait!" Yin Yuxi hurriedly got up and walked over, covering her nose and lifting the white cloth.
"County Lord, do you know this woman?" The minion asked softly.
"Isn't this Miss Chang Er? Where was she found? ”
The servant replied, "Back to the county lord, this woman was found in the side room of the main house. ”
Yin Yuxi held her breath and turned her head to look at Yao, looking at that look, Yao didn't know what was going on, she was originally surprised by today's fire, but now seeing Chang Jingran, her heart was a little clear, but it was only for a moment that she fell into confusion. She thought for a moment, then ordered, "This should be the second miss of the Chang family, you better hurry up and tell the prince." ”
"Yes, the minion will go."
Seeing the slave walking away, Yao Shi walked over with a nervous expression, "Yuxi, today's matter is not simple. Now that Miss Chang Er is dead here, I'm afraid that someone is deliberately trying to make trouble. I'm fine, it's just that you ......," sighed softly, "I'm afraid I won't be able to get out." ”
