Before the Empress Dowager rewarded Youyou with this mansion, Granny Liu was one of several maidservants who guarded the mansion, and she was responsible for cleaning the backyard and guarding the back door.

After Yoyo moved in, seeing that she was honest, he asked her to continue to guard the back door.

With a new owner, or a celebrity in front of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, Granny Liu was overjoyed and dutifully guarded the back door, preventing idle people from approaching the back door. Some time ago, Luluo was ordered to let her open the door for Zhang Ning every night, she waited at the door every dark, and after Zhang Ning's carriage entered the door, she was still at the back door, ready to open the door for Zhang Ning at any time.

Every time Zhang Ning came, the coachman rewarded her.

She thought that the days would continue to be so moisturized, but a few days ago, Deng Zhicheng, the little eunuch beside King Zheng, threatened her with her grandson's small shoes, if she didn't say who was sitting in the carriage that came every night, her grandson's life would be gone.

The little shoes she made for her grandson with her own hands, and there were two little tigers embroidered with red silk thread on the toes.

Her grandson is her sweetheart, although she feels sorry for the county lord, she still told Deng Zhicheng that it is the current minister Zhang Ning Zhang.

Granny Liu begged: "Good man, I only said this sentence, and I didn't say anything else." A good man spares his life. ”

Just one sentence is enough.

However, how did Deng Chengcheng find that a carriage quietly came in through the back door at night? The thin man muttered silently, "Don't tell what happened tonight, or your life will be gone." ”

He disdains to threaten children, and as for Granny Liu, she deserves it.

Granny Liu said repeatedly: "The old woman doesn't dare, the old woman doesn't dare." ”

The thin man put away the rope around Granny Liu's neck, and on tiptoe, ran out of the open window.

…………

The swill cart stopped at the side gate of King Zheng's mansion again, and several rough servants struggled to carry the swill bucket on the car, and the man took out two copper plates and handed them over, one of them took the copper plates, counted them clearly, and said, "Add five from tomorrow." ”

"This ......," the man who carried the swill said in embarrassment: "Brother, just a few buckets of swill, fifty copper plates are already very expensive, how can they be increased?" ”

"It's okay if you don't add it, you won't use it from tomorrow. Someone has come out with sixty copper plates, and I don't add only five for the sake of your frequent pouring? The servant said, taking the brass plate in his arms.

He does chores in the kitchen, and he has to be a kitchen steward to sell swill, and the steward has to take care of it, and the servants who carry the swill have to give a few copper plates, otherwise people will move it for you? In this way, he really didn't have much left. How can I do it without it?

The man who transported the swill hesitated, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, add five, add five, and give it to you tomorrow." Say okay, don't give it to anyone else. ”

"Of course." The servant said, and entered the house with a few companions who carried swill.

The man transporting the swill truck tied the swill bucket tightly, and Deng Zhicheng came out quietly, saying, "You tell Gonggong Cao that Zhang Ning seems to be suspicious of our family." ”

The man who transported the swill didn't reply: "How do you know that Zhang Ning is suspicious of you?" Have you seen him? ”

"I've seen it, he came over today, not only did King Zheng talk to him in the study, but the county lord also invited him over." Deng Zhicheng said with a smile in his voice: "I don't know if he will come over tonight, King Zheng didn't leave the house today, and he didn't drink a drop of wine, if he came over, he would have a good show." ”

Today, we must let King Zheng break the scandal of their tryst, hum, the dignified county lord, the night party lover, the lover is still the emperor's fiancé, the commander of the Jinyi guard, if it spreads, Zhang Ning is nothing, and the name of the county lord will be ruined. Who asked her to recruit Zhang Ning as a county horse? Should!

Deng Zhicheng thought viciously in his heart, the smile on his face was even stronger, but the man who carried the swill continued to tie the swill bucket, did not turn around, and did not see it.

He said, "Okay, I'll wait for your good news." Gonggong Cao's intention was to first stink the reputation of the county lord of Anding, and then attack Zhang Ning on this matter. As long as the county lord of Anding disgraces the royal family, the empress dowager will definitely not favor her anymore, and it is unknown to cancel her title of county lord. As long as she can't be Zhang Ning's help, what does it mean to marry Zhang Ning? ”

Deng Zhicheng knew in his heart that this was what Gonggong Cao ordered. He said: "Please tell Gonggong Cao that this matter is tonight, please listen to the good news tomorrow." ”

The man who carried the swill said: "You remember, once King Zheng broke through them, you shouted, everyone in the whole house knew about it, and then lit three torches at the back door." Ready, as long as you see three torches, immediately send someone to invite the king of Heyi County, his mouth is broken, it will definitely spread out, plus we add fuel to the fire, the reputation of the county lord is not ugly, and it is difficult. ”

Deng Zhicheng sneered twice and said, "What is it to make her reputation stink and let her fall out of favor in front of the Queen Mother?" According to our family's intentions, it would be good to force her to commit suicide in shame today. ”

The man carrying the swill cart said, "This is up to you." ”

The two negotiated, and the man tied the swill bucket, pulled up the swill cart and disappeared into the narrow alley at the side door.

Deng Zhicheng looked at no one left and right, turned around and entered the side door, covered the side door, and before he turned around, his mouth, nose and neck tightened at the same time, and the whole person was dragged behind a tree not far from the side door.

A voice said casually: "You want to break their good deeds, make the reputation of the county lord, and force the county lord to commit suicide?" You're quite capable. ”

Hearing these two sentences, Deng Zhicheng felt like falling into an ice cellar. When he said these words just now, he was standing a step or two behind the man who was carrying the swill, and his voice was very low, and no third person should have heard it. How does this person know?

He struggled desperately, trying to escape from the man's clutches and trying to distinguish, but the man's hands behind him were like iron hoops, and no matter how he struggled, he couldn't move.

The man's arm around his neck was slightly forced, Deng Zhicheng couldn't breathe, tilted his head, and fainted.

The man took him by one foot and dragged him to a courtyard not far from here, which had been prepared, and the lock of the courtyard gate had long been broken, and the man pushed it, and the courtyard door opened silently.

The county lord's mansion only lives Youyou and King Zheng's father and daughter, and a lot of the courtyard is empty, and there are not many servants, most of them wait in the courtyard where the father and daughter live. It's so easy to find an empty yard, it's easy to find a secluded place.

It was getting dark, and I could vaguely see a well in the courtyard.

It was the thin man who stunned Deng Zhicheng, he had been lying on the roof tile close to the place where the two were talking, and his hearing was good, how could he not hear what the two were saying? How can you show mercy to Deng Zhicheng?

There was an iron bucket next to the well, and the thin man poured a bucket of water on Deng Zhicheng's head, Deng Zhicheng was motionless, and he poured another bucket of water again. After pouring six or seven buckets like this, Deng Zhicheng opened his eyes.

The sky was darker again, Deng Zhicheng didn't see the scene in front of him clearly for a while, and the thin man thought he hadn't woken up, so he poured another bucket of water down.

Deng Zhicheng screamed.

At this time, Zhang Ning's carriage drove into the back door of the Anding County Lord's Mansion.
