The bright moon was in the sky, the streamer was bright, Xie Fenghua stared at the stunned man in front of him, and suddenly couldn't say what he felt.

After a few moments, she laughed dryly to dispel the embarrassment that was permeating the two of them at the moment, "It's me who has overstepped the rules." Please don't blame Master Hou. ”

"No, it won't. That's all in the past," Yuan Minzhou came back to his senses, laughed for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Do you know how your sister died?" ”

“…… Know. ”

Xie Fenghua remembered the ice and snow in Mocheng that day, and a cold that penetrated deep into the bone marrow suddenly came out from under her skin, she gathered the clothes on her body, and her eyes fell on the flickering lights in front of her.

The lights, a little star, are like clusters of flames, as if they have the ability to turn ice and snow into flowing water.

If she could get such a fire to keep her warm that day, she might not be frozen into stone, right?

She thought so, and then smiled bitterly to herself.

The fierce battle lasted for three days and three nights, and all the soldiers who followed her died in the long swords and arrows, and they were all unrecognizable. The sons and daughters on the battlefield in the border city have never lacked the little warmth, but the reinforcements that should have arrived but did not come.

Xu is face was too cold, and Yuan Minzhou couldn't help but ask, "Since you know everything, there's nothing you want to say?" ”

"What does Master Hou want me to say?" Xie Fenghua felt funny, his clear eyes seemed to be able to penetrate all things, and he could also see through what he was thinking at the moment, and said slowly, "I...... Since my sister has chosen this path, she must have thought that this would be the result. I don't think I regretted my choice, even in the moment before she died. ”

This is indeed the truth.

Although he relived his life, looking back at his fame, fortune and reputation in his life, it was just a passing cloud that covered people's eyes. But if she had to make another choice, she decided to return to the battlefield.

In life, people must always find their own faith.

And her faith may be to fulfill the faith of others.

For example, the man.

Yuan Minzhou was stunned, as if he didn't expect her to think like this, and only said after a while: "You can figure it out." ”

"Thank you Lord Hou for the compliment." Xie Fenghua answered, then stood up, smoothed the folds of the clothes on her body, and at a glance, the dome was like a cover, and the stars were sparse, at this moment she was in a high place, but she had the illusion of seeing the mountains at a glance.

In an instant, the depression accumulated in his chest seemed to be swept away, and the whole person became relaxed.

She looked at Yuan Minzhou, who was slowly standing up, as if she didn't talk about those old things, he was still a gentle and noble marquis in front of people, and she couldn't find the slightest sign of gaffe.

She suddenly sighed and thanked Yuan Minzhou: "Thank you Lord Hou for your help this time." If there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay the kindness of Lord Hou. ”

Unexpectedly, Yuan Minzhou just looked at her quietly, nodding with a smile, "There will be a chance." ”

Hearing this, Xie Fenghua nodded, jumped off the roof, and returned to the ancestral hall.

The light above his head was then covered, thinking that Yuan Minzhou was afraid of being discovered and thoughtfully covered the bricks and tiles, and the ancestral hall returned to its previous quietness. It's just that the conversation on the roof can't calm Xie Fenghua's heart after all.

As if thinking of something, she turned around, her eyes paused at the oil of a certain lamp, and when she walked over to take a look, she saw that the wick had been cut off by something, and it was pouring into the oil.

This must be the handiwork of her second aunt.

She was guarding against the meal, but she didn't expect Mama Li's hands and feet to be in the lamp oil, and when she thought that she had almost fallen for the calculation of the woman in the house, a touch of coldness suddenly rose in her heart.

It's just that she is not a person who suffers, and presumably the Shen family can almost comprehend her courtesy.

……

West Courtyard.

Shen sat in front of the dresser and let Mama Li comb her hair.

At the age of thirty, her skin is extremely well maintained, and the years have not left any obvious marks on her face. She stroked her hair, the corners of her lips curved slightly, and asked with a smile, "Are you sure you've put people in?" ”

"Mrs. Hui, the old slave personally saw people enter." Mama Li gently slid the comb in her hand and sneered, "That second young lady is also a clever one, and when she saw the old slave bring the food over, she didn't eat a bite." It's just that compared to Madame, the second lady is still younger, and she didn't expect the old slave to do anything in the lamp oil. ”

She added a medicinal powder to the lamp oil, and once the wick was dipped in the lamp oil and burned, the powder would evaporate, silently and colorlessly stun people.

Even though the second lady is extremely vigilant and has kung fu, this time it will definitely be difficult to escape.

Shen nodded, a touch of pride crossed his eyes, "Mama, I am naturally relieved that you are doing things." However, it's no wonder to me, who made that girl restless? Can't you just stay there? I had to go to the Hou Mansion to do bad things, and now I have made my daughter the target of public criticism. If you don't teach her a lesson, she's really going to be lawless! ”

Mama Li hurriedly agreed, "Madame is right. In the past, when the eldest lady was still there, the second lady was unscrupulous. Now that the eldest lady has sacrificed, the second lady doesn't know how to restrain herself, and it's no wonder that others. ”

After a pause, she suddenly asked, "Madam, ...... over there in the ancestral hall?"

"Find someone to watch. Keep an eye out for what's going on inside. Shen stood up, a cold light slanted from his charming eyebrows, and said coldly, "I won't disturb that girl's dream tonight." Let's bring someone over early tomorrow morning! ”

"Yes."

Mama Li hurriedly retreated, retreated to the door, but met Xie Zhengyun and Aunt Liu head-on. Seeing this, she hurriedly shouted inside, "Master, Aunt Liu, why are you here?" ”

"Is Madame asleep?" Xie Zhengyun walked in, and Aunt Liu also wanted to follow, but was stopped by Mama Li.

Seeing this, Aunt Liu hurriedly shouted: "Mama Li, the concubine came to visit Mrs. with the master." Don't stop you! ”

This was said to Xie Zhengyun, and sure enough, he looked back at Mama Li and said in a deep voice, "Why don't you go and inform Madame?" ”

Mama Li had a bitter face and looked at Aunt Liu vigilantly, "Master, it's so late, ...... you look?"

Aunt Liu naturally knew that she wanted to drive herself away, but she had already walked here, where was the reason to go back halfway?

Thinking like this, she twisted her body and walked to Xie Zhengyun's side, and said softly, "Mama Li, please rest assured." The concubine just heard that Mrs. has been thinking too much in the past few days, so she deliberately learned a set of massage techniques, and took advantage of tonight to come over to relieve Mrs. of her fatigue. The concubine is kind-hearted, how can the grandmother bear to keep the concubine out of the door? Isn't it...... Madame is inconvenient now? ”

As he spoke, he deliberately glanced inside, with a look of special meaning.

When Mama Li heard this, she almost crushed a mouthful of old teeth, and seeing that Xie Zhengyun was already frowning unhappily, she had no choice but to let the two of them in.

Shen had already heard Mama Li's loud message, and she didn't have time to get dressed, but she saw that Xie Zhengyun had already strode in, followed by Aunt Liu, who had a charming face, and when she saw her, Aunt Liu hurriedly grinned, ran forward flatteringly, and held her arm and said, "Madame's complexion looks very good!" ”
