In the ancient alley of a sheep intestine path, there is only room for two people to walk, the bluestone paving road, full of moss, and the high walls on both sides are deep and lonely.

In the ancient alley, far away, a man and a horse walked slowly. The sturdy dark clouds were on the horse, and the man's rough hand pulled the black cloak, and the cold face under the hat was like frost and snow in winter, which made people's feet cracked.

At this moment, there seemed to be a lonely and desolate sound of flute from the side of the high wall.

As soon as the reins were tightened, he couldn't help but stop, looked up at the sky, only felt the boundless gloom, listened for a while, and slowly moved forward, thinking in his heart, probably which concubine in the family is not favored, can blow such a mournful flute.

Thinking about it, Leng Jun's face was a little moved, but it recovered in an instant, and the pace under his feet accelerated, as if he was going to catch up with something......

Hengguo Mansion

The back garden is full of flowers, and the fragrance of the flowers is rich and dripping, attracting butterflies and bees.

Su Ling ran after the butterfly for a while, and after finding nothing, he returned to the pavilion out of breath.

The maid Bai Tao immediately handed her a cup of fruit tea, the tea was still steaming, Gao Xuecian raised her eyes, her hands kept moving, the maid was careless, Su Ling was also careless, she took a sip after taking it, and wow!

Bai Tao immediately wiped it for her in a panic, "Girl, slave maid...... Sorry ......"

"Phew! Are you trying to murder your master?! The little girl's lips are thin, how can she stand the heat, and a small blister instantly appeared at the corner of her mouth, which made Su Ling scold.

Gao Xuecian walked over and put the peeled grapes into her mouth, ** cool and moist, and the little girl who was crying immediately stopped crying.

Seeing this, Gao Xuecian raised her hand and gently swiped the corners of Su Ling's mouth, and comforted her softly, "The girl is good, the heat is not serious, just ask the doctor to apply some ointment."

Su Ling finished chewing the flesh and looked up at her, "Really?" Will there be scars? ”

"If it's faster, there won't be a scar."

Su Ling turned his head and shouted to Bai Tao, who was kneeling on the ground in a daze, "Did you hear that!" Hurry up and call the doctor! If you don't go, I'll ask my mother to lock you up in a small dark room."

Bai Tao lowered her head and gritted her teeth secretly, "Yes, yes, the slave will go."

The moment he got up, Bai Tao glanced at Gao Xuecicada fiercely. This woman's methods are really powerful, and in a few days, she subdued the four girls who have always been short-tempered and perverse, and even she, the maid who accompanied the girl from childhood to adulthood, could not compare.

Gao Xuecian is good at observing words and colors, and naturally she also noticed the color of Bai Tao's eyes, and a trace of mockery flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Everyone has their own family doctors, the doctor came quickly, and the news from the Han family spread quickly, so they hurried to see their little daughter.

Gao Xuecian saw that only the Han family was coming, her eyes were slightly dark, and then she looked to the west intentionally or unintentionally, which was Su Tongying's courtyard.

She hadn't seen him since the last time she said goodbye to school, and even if she stayed with Su Ling every day, she hadn't met him.

Gao Xuecian was a little lonely in her heart, she was unintentional and didn't want to, but the person became clearer and clearer in her mind.

This feeling of being out of control is somewhat bad.

There was a deep sigh in his ear, "What's going on?!" How could the girl burn her mouth if she was so good! Han put his arms around Su Ling with a gloomy expression.

Su Ling's scald still took some time in the end, and it was not serious, but I was afraid that it would affect his diet.

Su Ling was tired of being in her mother's arms, and she shed tears of grievance, Han only had such a daughter, and she had never seen her father when she was born, she had been fond of her since she was a child, and she was reluctant to bump into it, and now she saw the blisters at the corners of her pink lips, and she was distressed and angry.

"What do these servant maids do to eat!"

There is no need to guess, Bai Tao knew that the Han family was going to be punished, the Han family has always been a bad one, and he was extremely harsh on his subordinates, and she had never experienced and seen the means of punishing his subordinates, Bai Tao was so frightened that she almost wanted to fall, she hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy with tears "Madam, madam, the slave knows that she is wrong"

Han's pair of cold eyes shot at her instantly, and Bai Tao's body trembled even more, trembling and crying.

"Slave maid...... Slaves, slaves don't have hearts, uh! At that time, Miss Gao was also there, she, she knew that the tea was hot, but she didn't remind the girl! Bai Tao seemed to have found a glimmer of life, and pointed to the high snow cicada standing aside, "Madam, she was also there at the time!" ”

"Oh~" Han lazily faced Gao Xuecicada, neither condemning nor defending, looking at it with a bit of inquiry.

Gao Xuecian glanced at Bai Tao, laughed disdainfully in her heart, but pretended to be worried and blamed on her face, "Sister Bai Tao, you ......"

As if surprised and sad, Gao Xuecian knelt down in front of Han, "It's the people's daughter who is not good, so that the girl's jade body is damaged"

Han's eyes sank, Bai Tao was also stunned, and then said in ecstasy, "Madam, look, she herself admits that the slave maid is ......"

"It's the people's girl, it's wrong, I obviously saw that the tea that Sister Bai Tao gave to the girl was still steaming, and when I just wanted to stop it, I was already ......"

Bai Tao sat down in shock, Su Ling has always been close to Gao Xueciao, she treats herself gently and considerately, seeing that Bai Tao wants to frame Sister Xuecicada, how can she not care, and leaned out of her mother's arms, "Mother, don't listen to her nonsense, it's her hot daughter, well, my daughter hurts so much~"

Su Ling pointed at the white peach, and then turned his head to his mother for comfort.

Bai Tao chose the most wrong choice, she thought that with a few years of companionship, the girl would be towards herself.

Han Shi was silent, but Ammer, who was standing behind her, knew Madame's thoughts, and she took a few steps forward, "You stupid slave, you didn't protect the girl carefully and hurt the girl, come on!" Pull down the 20th board, punish 4 months, and demote to a third-class maid"

Bai Tao was stunned, twenty boards? She is not one of those rough maids, where can she stand it, Madame is asking for her life!

"No, madam, the slave knows that she is wrong, madam, spare your life...... Ah, let go of me! ”

Gao Xuecicada lowered his head and did not participate again. Twenty boards, although she didn't die, but she was seriously injured, and she was fined for four months, and she didn't have money to catch medicine, so she didn't want to die.

Her eyes moved slightly, but she didn't feel cruel, she just thought that this Han family, did she want to do this to her?

looked up at Han, but found that she was also looking at herself, looking at the eyes that glowed with cold light, as if she wanted to see through her heart, Gao Xuecicada felt a chill down her spine.

A cold and lazy voice came from overhead, "Gao Xueciao, listen to Ling'er, you have been playing with her recently, right?" ”

The voice was good, but Gao Xuecian felt that her scalp was numb, and she still didn't change her face at Shang Han, "Mrs. Hui, yes"

The tone is neither humble nor arrogant, Han really looked at her at this time, I heard that it was an orphan girl brought back by Su Qianli, this style of temperament seems to be good, this is good, and the appearance is also outstanding.

Han's expression softened slightly, "Are you still used to living?"

"Mrs. Hui, the people's daughter is vulgar, and she came to the mansion to thank your mansion for paying it"

A lone young girl, with a stunning appearance, and a noble family......

Han asked Amer to take Su Ling back to her courtyard to rest, and then lazily reclined on the soft cheek, looking at the ten-fingered dankou, "Are you here to look for relatives in the capital?" ”

Gao Xuecian lowered her head, as if she was a little sad, "The people's hometown is a natural disaster, and there is no one else at home, so she can only come to Shengjing with her grandmother to find relatives in order to seek a shelter."

Han Shi lifted his eyelids, "Which family is your relative in the capital, you are a good friend of Ling'er, it is rare to see her so happy these days, I am also happy as a mother, you can talk about it"

It's going to drive her away.

Gao Xueciao's face suddenly stiffened, and then quickly covered it up, and smiled, "The people's daughter is panicked, the prison lady is worried, and the relatives of the people's daughter...... She is a family sister, her name is Gao Xuan, and she now lives in the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion."

Ningyuan Marquis Mansion? Han's eyes instantly turned cold, and he looked straight at Gao Xuecicada.

Night falls

The lights of thousands of homes are lit up sporadically, spread among the layers of houses and attics, and the bright moon gradually rises, looking from afar, like the vast and slim river of smoke in the world.

This is the fifth game.

Su Tongying was moderately calm and calm, but Mustard Ziyang was a little impatient.

Losing five games in a row, doesn't he lose face as a dignified military master?!

"You came to me today just to see the old man's jokes?"

Su Tongying's eyebrows narrowed slightly, and she fell again, and said lightly, "The younger generation doesn't dare, the elder knows why I came."

Mustard Ziyang suddenly felt his eyebrows twitch, and said in a rough manner, "Don't even think about it!" The old man doesn't know anything and won't say anything! ”

Hearing this, Su Tongying put down the chess pieces in his hand and looked at Mustard Ziyang fixedly, "Elder Ge, how did my grandfather treat you when he was alive?" ”

Mustard Ziyang didn't expect him to move the general out directly, he was stunned for a while, and his eyes were gloomy for a moment, "The general treats me like a new parent"

"Then why, you don't allow us to track down the war?"

mentioned the battle of the ancient ferry back then, and the bottom of Mustard Yang's eyes was a little darker.

The old man's voice was like a weathered sadness: "It's not that I don't want to say it, it's that the general warned me back then, don't say it!" ”

Su Tongying was directly stunned.

Why did grandfather not want to tell them? Is it unwilling to involve the Su family in the dispute, or is there another reason?

After pondering for a while, Su Tongying took a sip of tea, "Thank you for telling me."

Mustard Ziyang waved his hand, "You just listen to the persuasion" Among the general's sons, there are few outstanding ones, and the most outstanding ones are the second and third sons.

The eldest man of the Su family is a mediocre talent who is obsessed with official politics, and he can't do martial arts, which is why Emperor Jing did not give him the prince the throne after the general's death, but the third son who won the general's favor went with him, and the fourth son was even worse, and he directly abandoned martial arts from Wen.

And Su Yankai, who has been famous for a long time, is a talent, but because he is still the eldest princess, he has become the master of the dynasty and the brother-in-law of the current emperor.

Looking at it this way, the Su family still has to rely on the juniors.

"This chess game, it seems to be calm, but in fact the undercurrent is turbulent, if you are not careful, take a wrong step, you will be doomed, you know?"

Su Tongying sighed lightly, got up and bowed to Mustard Yang.

"What the elder said is very true, and the younger generation also knows that you are thinking about our safety, but, the crow still has the feeling of feeding, the lamb still has the intention of kneeling, his father and grandfather were killed, and Tongying asked himself if he was worthy of being a gentleman, this revenge for killing his ancestor and killing his father, Tongying must not fail to revenge!"

"You! …… Alas, "Mustard Ziyang knows that he is not joking, why didn't he want to avenge the general, but there are too many interests and forces involved, and it is not something that can be solved overnight."

Mustard Ziyang got up from the cushion angrily, but he used too much force, knocked on the corner of the table, and the wide robe swept to the teacup in front of him, and a cup of hot tea was sprinkled on him.

Seeing this, Su Tongying immediately stepped forward and helped him up, "Pavilion elder be careful"

At this time, there was a bang at the door of the private room, and Miao'er stood at the door with an angry face, and when she saw the two people who were still moving, she was stunned, and then the anger in her eyes turned into shock in an instant, extremely shocked!

This...... What's going on?!

Mustard Ziyang and Su Tongying also looked at each other, but Su Tongying was the first to react, helped Mustard Ziyang up, turned his head to look at Miao'er, who had not yet recovered from his senses, and frowned slightly, "What's wrong?" ”

The cold voice poured her spirit, and seeing that Childe's face was not good, Miao'er shrank her head weakly.

"No, it's okay, it's just that it's getting dark, come and ask Gongzi when he will return home" After speaking, Miao'er hurriedly retreated, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Childe, the slave didn't see anything!" ”

The two left behind were inexplicable.

"You girls in Su Mansion are like this...... Casual? "I don't know the rules at all.

"It's not...... It's just that this one is a little special," Su Tongying smiled bitterly.

"Oh? Special to you? The old man's eyes lit up.

Su Tongying coughed lightly twice, decided to avoid this topic, and made a gesture of please, "It's getting late, and the junior has sent the attendants at home to send the elder back home."

Miao'er, who took the initiative to control the wind outside the door, still couldn't calm down.

She never expected it! Her son-in-law...... Actually, what a mouthful!

No, she has to take care of the wind! Never let anyone else see it! Miao'er burst into tears, Childe, Childe.

The door behind her opened, Miao'er stiffened, turned around slowly, and then quickly retreated to the side, bowing her head and saying nothing.

Mustard Ziyang stepped out first, the plain robe shook gently, and the silver hair was unruly and scattered, Miao'er couldn't help it, and secretly raised her eyes, about fifty years old, but it can be seen that he should also be a beautiful man when he was young.

The tough face was covered with wind and frost and vicissitudes, but the pair of sharp glasses were bright and exuding a sharp essence.

Suddenly, those piercing eyes turned to look at her. Miao'er suddenly trembled with fright and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

Seeing this, Su Tongying, who came out closely behind Mustard Yang, looked at Mustard Yang for some reason.

The latter glared, "Look at what the old man is doing, the old man didn't scare her"

Su Tongying said helplessly, "The elder of the pavilion has misunderstood, the servants are not well served, and they should be punished."

The words seemed to be said to the people on the ground intentionally or unintentionally, Su Tongying looked at the petite figure on the ground and trembled, and then smiled with satisfaction.

Su Tongying's small eyes naturally couldn't escape the bottom of Mustard Yang's eyes, and he snorted coldly, "You really live up to your reputation."

Su Tongying knew that he was trying to make fun of himself, so he could only smile helplessly. But to Miao'er, it sounded like ...... Complaining about the taste.

Miao'er shivered viciously.

After sending away Mustard Yang, Su Tongying turned around and returned to Miao'er. Miao Er was afraid that he was still angry at her for the 'good thing' that she had unintentionally bumped into them, so she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him.

"How long are you going to kneel?" Su Tongying asked lightly.

Miao'er suddenly regretted it in her heart, "Gong, Gongzi, the slave and maid know that they are wrong, the slave and the maid are really, and they didn't see anything!" ”

Miao'er suddenly straightened her waist, raised her right hand and swore an oath, "The slave swears, the slave will never tell you about this!" Slave ......"

"Stop" Su Tongying frowned, how could she not understand the more she listened. What the hell is she talking about?

Then his eyebrows smoothed, he bent down and pulled her up, and said, "Elder Ge is just a hidden person, not a ruthless person, I won't blame you."

"Huh? Oh" Miao'er's eyes dodged, silently withdrawing the hand in his palm.

Look at the son is very respectful to the old man, it's not like that kind of relationship, isn't it himself...... Thinking wrong?

Looking at the empty palm, Su Tongying withdrew her hand and said lightly to her, "Go home"

"Ah, yes......"

Miao'er followed behind Su Tongying, and when she walked to the door of the teahouse, she saw the shopkeeper and two beautiful men standing there, and Miao'er remembered a very important thing.

She...... Finished.
