Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Wind Is Clear
"Guyue, Xiao Niang let you go in first. "When I arrived at the main bed of Qingfeng Garden, the tongue of the bird said to Guyue.
Gu Yue glanced at the nervous Hua Mian and saluted the finch's tongue, "The slave will go in first." ”
"Sister Guyue......" Hua Mian watched Guyue enter the main bed, she peeked at the finch tongue beside her, and was shocked by the other party, and immediately lowered her head.
Bird's tongue glanced at the shrunken flower next to him, and said in his heart: The little hoof is still shrewd, and he has come to report the letter and invite merit!
"I disturbed my wife's rest, and asked my wife to forgive me. Entering the house, Gu Yue knelt in front of the couch.
In the main bedroom, the oil lamp on the small leaf boxwood carved round table was just lit, and the soothing incense lit in the center of the room was stuffed into every corner of the room, occupying the sleeves and cabinet corners, not counting, and the surplus ones rushed to get into Guyue's nose, which made her drowsy, and her brain was not as clear as when she came.
The veil on the brocade couch was separated, Ming Yue Lan was wearing a blue and Tilian obscene clothes and pants, and a white silver silk hook flower gown, she was lying on the couch half-awake and half-asleep, with a pair of jade arms on her delicate face, and her posture was lazy and charming.
Mingyue Lan's apricot eyes drifted to the kneeling person on the ground, and said unhappily: "Water." ”
Gu Yue knew that she was angry, so she didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly got up and poured tea and brought it to the couch. Ming Yuelan took a sip of water, and the whole person became more sober, "Say, it's so late, what is Xue'er doing again?"
After Ming Yuelan drank the water, Gu Yue knelt down again after putting the cup on the table, and said the reason she had thought of on the road: "Mrs. Hui, the third girl accidentally knocked on the wound at night, and when she was angry, she thought that she had not punished Fanxing for the matter of staying in the guest house, so she sent a slave maid to ask Madame, is there a whereabouts of Fanxing in the house?"
After Gu Yue finished speaking, Ming Yuelan became angry, "She still has the face to ask, if she hadn't run to the guest house without permission, how could she be injured by the concubine!"
Madame was furious. Gu Yue's body was much closer to the ground, and she touched the ground with her fingers, "This matter is still not strict with the stars, and she told the third girl about the matter in the Zhuxi Pavilion, otherwise the third girl would not ......"
"Hmph, none of your masters and servants are worry-free!" Ming Yuelan threw the soft pillow on the couch towards Gu Yue, and after Gu Yue was smashed, she quickly bowed down, and said in a trembling voice: "Madame, stop being angry!"
"Stop being angry, she will let me save some heart!" Ming Yuelan threw a soft pillow on Gu Yue's body again, although it didn't hurt, Gu Yue was still so nervous that she didn't even dare to come out, for fear that Ming Yue Lan would punish her in anger.
Hearing Ming Yuelan's angry rebuke in the house, Hua Mian's body shrank and shrunk outside, and when he saw it, he mocked: "What, I'm afraid, do you want to serve in front of Mrs. when you are so daring?"
Hua Mian didn't refute it when she heard it, but just blindly shrunk and acted cowardly. Seeing her like this, she thought that she was just a greedy little girl with no heart and no heart, and she would make a fool of herself in front of Ming Yuelan after a while, so she laughed at her and stopped talking.
There was silence in the main bed for a moment, Gu Yue bowed stiffly, closed her eyes as if she had waited for a long time before she heard Ming Yuelan above her head say angrily: "You go back and tell her that there is no news from Fanxing's escape from the house until now, so she doesn't have to ask again in the future." ”
Gu Yue opened her eyes and hesitated for a moment, then said, "Yes, the slave will go back and tell the third girl." Then he got up and saluted, and hurried out of the room. She was in a hurry, so she didn't notice that Ming Yuelan was looking at her intentionally or unintentionally behind her arms.
Gu Yue is Fanxing's sister and Liu Hanxue's personal maid, she is smart and steady on weekdays, Ming Yuelan did not tell Liu Hanxue the true whereabouts of Fanxing, because she was afraid that letting Gu Yue know would be detrimental to Liu Hanxue. Although she temporarily assigned Yunwu to Liu Hanxue, Yunwu is not a person who can do things, so it is better to wait for her to pick two good girls, and then deal with Guyue.
Seeing Gu Yue come out safe and sound, Hua Mian breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Queyu pushed her on the side, and said angrily: "Don't let the little lady wait for a long time, go in quickly." ”
Hua Mian settled down and walked slowly towards the main bed, Gu Yue passed by her side and wanted to remind her of something, but when she saw the finch tongue in front of her, Gu Yue put her mind away and let Hua Mian walk in.
After Huamian entered, Guyue also stood beside Queyu, and Queyue treated her very better than Huamian's attitude, "Guyue, are you okay in the house?"
"Aunt Xie cares, I'm fine. Gu Yue smiled and shook her head.
Finchtongue nodded and said, "That's good, Madame, her injuries have not healed, and even I have been scolded in the past few days." ”
"Madame values my aunt so much, and she is willing to scold you? It seems that the lord is really angry this time, otherwise how dare those guards make such a heavy hand!" Gu Yueruo looked at the finch tongue distressedly, "It's just that the hard work Aunt Finch tongue, this time is going to be difficult." ”
"Hey, I'm fine. Finchtongue looked at Gu Yue carefully, she was holding a lantern, and she could see the bruises and bruises faintly exposed on Gu Yue's body in the night, "It's you, have the three girls been getting heavier and heavier these days?"
Gu Yue pulled the collar up, bowed her head and said, "It's okay, the girl is angry, if this can make the girl angry, I am willing to bear it, anyway, it will be fine if I apply the medicine." ”
When Queyu heard this, his heart swelled with distress, "What do you mean by being willing to suffer? The third girl has always been raised by the clouds, but you and Fanxing have been entangled with me since childhood. Obviously, Yunwu has such a wooden temperament, how can he raise the three girls so powerful!"
Hearing this, Gu Yue looked around nervously, "Auntie be quiet, be careful to ask others to listen." ”
"It's so late, except for a few of us, everyone else has already rested. Bird's tongue said.
"That's fine. Gu Yue comforted Que Yue and said: "Auntie don't worry too much about me, the girl will be injured in the future, her mood will be better, and I will be better." ”
"Alas......" sighed, "you are always like this, and you suffer any grievances." You don't count like this, the stars are even more than you!
At the mention of the stars, Gu Yue's eyes lowered, and her brows frowned worriedly: "I don't know where the stars are now......
Seeing that she said something that she shouldn't have said, Birdtongue hurriedly sorted out her thoughts, hugged Gu Yue and comforted her: "You don't have to worry too much, maybe the guards will be able to find the stars after a while." ”
Gu Yue wept in her arms, "I don't know how to behave, why did this girl run away?"
The hand that caressed Gu Yue's head paused for a moment, "Maybe it's just a momentary thought......
did not ignore the slight abnormality of the finch tongue, and the lonely moon buried her head in the arms of the finch tongue, and the uneasiness in her heart became heavier and heavier. Ming Yuelan didn't say anything, but she didn't even hide her tongue, then the stars must have had an accident!
"Hey, by the way, it's not too early, you should go back too, right?"
Gu Yue wiped her tears, "Auntie, Huamian is still inside, she doesn't know the way, I'll send her back in a while." ”
"That girl, if she doesn't know the way, she prefers to come by herself. Thinking of Hua Mian, the corners of her lips floated with disdain, "Guyue, how did you meet this girl?"
Gu Yue replied, "I met her on the way to Qingfeng Garden. She was hiding behind a magnolia tree on the side of the road, and I asked her what she was doing, and she said that she couldn't find the way and asked me to lead the way. ”
"You didn't meet anyone else on your way, did you?" asked the farrow.
"Auntie, don't worry, she is also cautious, I didn't see anyone following her when I saw her. Lone Moon replied.
"That's good. Queyu was relieved, and reminded Gu Yue: "When you send her back in a while, be careful not to let people see it." ”
Gu Yue responded: "Auntie, don't worry, I can save it." ”
Queyu looked at her and smiled with satisfaction, Gu Yue has been very worry-free since she was a child, so she is really relieved that Gu Yue will send Hua Mian back for a while.
"The slave maid Huamian has seen the little lady. Hua Mian knelt on the ground when she entered the room, but as soon as she spoke, Ming Yuelan, who was already angry, added a little more anger, "What do you call me?"
Hua Mian saw Ming Yuelan staring at herself, and she was afraid that she would even stumble when she spoke, "Little, little girl......"
"In the end, it came from Musheng Pavilion, so I don't understand the rules!" Ming Yuelan scolded: "Didn't you teach you before you came in?"
"Back to Xiaoniang, Aunt Bird's Tongue didn't say anything to me. Hua Mian replied tremblingly, racking her brains and unable to figure out what she had done wrong.
Thinking that Hua Mian was here to report the news, and she didn't want to be too harsh, Ming Yuelan put away her temper, but her tone was still a little unkind, "That's it, since you are here for the first time, I will spare you this time." Tell me, what did you hear about in Musheng Pavilion?"
Seeing that Ming Yuelan forgave herself, Hua Mian breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and said to Ming Yuelan with a smile: "Back to Xiaoniang, the slave maid saw the second girl and she and King Yi Yi prostituting during the day!"
As soon as these words came out, Mingyue Lanmo didn't move on the couch for a long time, and Hua Mian couldn't wait and called softly: "Little lady?"
Seeing that Ming Yuelan didn't reply to herself, Hua Mian said again: "No wonder the little lady was scared, the slave maid was really shocked when she saw it during the day! King Yi is too, the slave maid heard that he is not close to women, how could he be seduced by the second girl so easily?"
"Come here. Listening to the chatter of flowers, Ming Yuelan suddenly said loudly. Hua Mian thought that she was going to reward herself, so she happily came over, but before she knelt on the couch, Ming Yuelan shook her hand and gave her a slap.
"Little lady!" Hua Mian was stunned, she covered her face that was hurting, and her eyes reflected Ming Yuelan's angry face.
"I sent you to keep an eye on it in Musheng Pavilion, you cheap maid is greedy for merit, and you dare to make up such a ridiculous thing to trick me!" Ming Yuelan was so angry that she had to make up for another slap, but Hua Mian subconsciously dodged it, which made her even more angry, "You still dare to hide!"
"Little lady, forgive me!" Hua Mianbai kept kowtowing on the ground and said: "How dare the slave and maid deceive the little lady, the second girl, she is really not innocent with King Yixi!"
"You still dare to say it!" Ming Yuelan wanted to smash Huamian with a jade pillow, but heard Huamian hurriedly say: "Little lady, the slave and maid really didn't lie! Today, during the day, King Yi sent the slave and maid to fill the medicine, and when the slave and maid returned to the room with the medicine, they saw King Yi Yi pressing the second girl on the couch. When they saw the slave and maid breaking in, they hurriedly separated, and both of them looked panicked, especially the second girl, whose clothes and hair were all in order!
"Little lady, not only that!" Hua Mian saw that Ming Yuelan didn't throw the jade pillow over, so she continued: "King Yi Yi also hugged the second girl in front of the slave maid, and even the decoction he gave to the second girl was fried by him himself! King Yi Yi also threatened the slave and maid not to tell this matter! The second girl also promoted the slave and maid to become a first-class maid by her side in order to seal the slave maid's mouth!"
"......" The jade pillow in Ming Yuelan's hand slowly put down, and she looked at Hua Mian in disbelief, "What you said is true?"
Hua Mian raised her hand and swore: "If Hua Mian's words are not true, the lady can take the life of the slave." After making the oath, she added: "Also, Xiaoniang, Qiqin and Zhencha have always been in the room." Looking at their appearance, the second girl and King Yi have been like this for a long time. ”
Ming Yuelan turned her head and leaned on her arm to think carefully about Hua Mian's words, thinking that Mo Yunchen had been helping Liu Zhilan openly and secretly before, even if there was an emperor's dictation, it would be too much, and a clear-eyed person could see that there was a problem between them. From this point of view, what Hua Mian said is somewhat credible. However, this matter involves Mo Yunchen, so she is better cautious.
"Sparrow's tongue!" Ming Yuelan called out.
Hua Mian heard her call for a finch tongue, and her heart was nervous. Could it be that Ming Yuelan didn't believe her, so she wanted to call the finch tongue to drive her out?
"What do you have to say Madame?" After the finch tongue came in, she saw the soft pillow on the ground and the nervous Huamian, thinking that Huamian had touched Ming Yuelan's moldy head, and she secretly rejoiced in her heart, calling this little hoof dishonest.
"Tongue, you take the pair of apricot blossoms and pearls from the treasure box and give it to her. Ming Yuelan said.
"Ma'am!" Finch Tongue was startled, and Hua Mian looked at Finch Tongue with a smirk smile. When Fang Que opened her mouth to call Ming Yuelan "madam", she knew why she had made Ming Yuelan angry as soon as she came in. This finch tongue deliberately didn't tell her this, obviously he wanted her to be beaten out, and then he pried out the handle of Liu Zhilan from her mouth so that he could ask Ming Yuelan for credit!
"Go ahead. Ming Yuelan said, and the finch tongue had to reluctantly take out the silver hairpin from the treasure box and put it on Hua Mian's hand.
"This hairpin is so beautiful!" Hua Mian touched and touched the hairpin in his hand, the apricot blossom carving with buds on the silver hairpin is lifelike, especially the flower core in the apricot blossom, it is actually a whole pearl into irregular pieces and grinded into fine pieces and then embedded in. If the sun shines on it, it is pearlescent and moist, not to mention how beautiful it is!
"If you like it, this hairpin will be given to you. Ming Yuelan looked at Hua Mian's love for Yinchai, and said with a smile: "If what you said is true, then you have to keep an eye on them carefully for me when you go back." If you can get hard evidence and give it to me, you will be rewarded much more than that. ”
Hua Mian looked up, and a pair of eyes were soaked in greed. She clenched the silver hairpin and said excitedly: "Madame, don't worry, the slave will not let Madame down!"
After letting the finch tongue take Hua Mian out, Ming Yuelan lay on the couch with a side face, and a sinister smile unconsciously appeared on her face. Liu Zhilan, you have teamed up with Mo Yunchen to harm me to this point again and again, if I miss such a good opportunity this time, then I am really sorry for my injury, right?
