Chapter 477: A Tooth for a Tooth
The old mother glanced at Jian Ning worriedly, only to see Jian Ning say slowly: "Mother Liu, I have been wearing this dress for several days, you go to my room and get me some clean clothes." ”
Mother Liu deliberately looked very surprised, and said, "Yo, miss, who can see you here, you just don't wear it..."
Jian Ning was furious and said, "Presumptuous, do you really think that my father taught me a lesson and locked me in this firewood room, I am a phoenix that falls into the grass and is not as good as your chicken?" Have you ever considered whether you still want to work in this Jian Mansion, if you forget what your identity is, I will remind you, you are just a minion, when my father's anger is gone, aren't you afraid that I will clean you up? ”
After hearing this, Mother Liu was still afraid, walked to Jian Ning's side with a smile, and said, "Miss, don't be angry, I'm mainly afraid that Mother Zhang will mind guarding this for me for a while." ”
The old mother hurriedly said: "Mother Liu, look at what you said, you and I are both slaves, what is there to mind, you just go." ”
Mother Liu snorted: "That..., then why don't you let Mother Zhang go and get clothes for Miss, I'll guard Miss here." ”
Jian Ning said: "What, are you just afraid of the cold outside and don't want to go?" Alright, I'll go to my dad now. ”
Mother Liu hurriedly said: "Miss, don't be angry, just go to the slave." ”
When the old mother saw that Mother Liu was gone, she quickly closed the door, only to see the two beautiful girls flying in from the window.
Zuo Jiayin walked up to Jian Ning and hurried to fix her wounds, and then admonished, "Miss Jane." I'll leave you some for you to take on time. Don't be angry with yourself and your dad anymore, the body is on its own, you know? ”
Jian Ning whispered, "I know." Sister, tell the adults and let him be careful of that Yang Lezhi. ”
Zuo Jiayin nodded. Suddenly, there was a cacophony outside the door. The old mother shouted that it was not good, and said, "The housekeeper is here with a lot of people, so you can go quickly." ”
Zuo Jiayin handed it to Jian Ning unhurriedly. Then he said, "Remember my words." Adults don't sit idly by, you just need to take care of yourself. ”
Jian Ning nodded. Said: "I know, you guys hurry up." ”
Zuo Jiayin walked up to the old mother and whispered, "In order not to affect you, you have to suffer something." After speaking, there was a slap on the back of the old mother, and the old mother fell down in response.
Zuo Jiayin and Wen Rou put on their veils, Jian Ning motioned for them to hurry up, they walked under the window, only to hear Jian Ning say: "Rest assured, adults, they haven't got anything." ”
Before the words fell, at the moment when Zuo Jiayin and Wen Rou flew out, the door was kicked open, and the housekeeper rushed in with more than a dozen guards, only to see Jian Ning shouting, and when the people heard it, they saw Jian Ning's shoulders half naked, and he was about to retreat, the housekeeper stopped those guards, sneered and looked at the open window, and said, "Hurry up and chase me!" ”
The guards rushed out in response, and the butler walked up to Jian Ning's side and said with a smile: "I knew that someone was going to come to see you, say!" Who the hell is it? ”
Jian Ning sneered and said, "You have the ability to chase it yourself, ask me what to do, I don't know anything." ”
The housekeeper shook his hand and gave Jian Ning a slap, Jian Ning covered her hot face, and said calmly: "I won't tell you a word if I die, you die of this heart!" ”
The housekeeper still had to fight, and Liu's mother on the side stepped forward and said, "Housekeeper, you can save some energy, I'm afraid this dead girl won't survive for a few days." ”
The housekeeper walked out of the door angrily, and saw the old mother who was chopped to the ground by Zuo Jiayin at the door, and turned back to Liu's mother and said, "Drag her aside for me, don't get in the way." ”
Mother Liu hurriedly responded, dragged the old mother aside, and then spat at the old mother, and said, "Old immortal, you think that others will not clean you up, hum!" ”
Jian Ning lay on the bed, quietly thinking about what Zuo Jiayin said to herself, she decided that she still had to live well, and she couldn't let these bullying dog minions act in front of her, and one day, she would clean them up.
Zuo Jiayin and Gentle flew out, the guards of Jane's Mansion were already blocked in front of them, Gentle and Zuo Jiayin glanced at each other, respectively pulled out a short knife from their bodies, flew into the crowd, and fought with the guards, dozens of rounds later, Zuo Jiayin and Gentle rushed out of the encirclement, according to the route of the ground in advance, jumped out of the wall from the roof of Jane's Mansion, the carriage was waiting not far away, the two people rushed towards the carriage, the pursuers behind them were getting closer and closer, and the gentle body had not fully recovered after all, She was gradually losing her strength.
Seeing this, Zuo Jiayin stepped forward to pull Wenwen, and the pursuer shouted behind him: "If we run again, we will release arrows." ”
Gentleness: "Good news, you go first, I'll lead them away." ”
Zuo Jiayin: "Neither of us can be exposed, and I can't leave you alone, go, I'll pull you, it's coming soon." ”
Before the words fell, Zuo Jiayin heard a swishing sound in her ears, she instinctively blocked her body behind Gentleness, and shouted: "Gentleness, get out of the way!" ”
With a bang, at the moment when Zuo Jiayin was about to fall to the ground, Gentle saw that the pursuers were only ten meters away from them.
Gentle suddenly found that Zuo Jiayin's footsteps slowed down significantly, and hurriedly went to pull her, just at this critical moment, a figure blocked between them, the same night clothes, veiled, unable to see clearly, the man threw something at the pursuers, suddenly, a bright light appeared in front of the pursuers, and the dazzling light seemed to break the night in the dark night, and the pursuers couldn't see what was in front of them clearly, and everyone was in a mess, and the masked man took advantage of the panic of the pursuers to carry Zuo Jiayin lightly on his back, Turning to Wen Rou, he said, "Let's leave this place quickly, she's hurt." ”
At this time, Zuo Jiayin had already fainted.
Wen Rou got into the carriage with the masked man, and the coachman who had been waiting saw that the man had returned, and hurriedly drove away.
Seeing that the man put Zuo Jiayin down carefully, Wen Rou said, "Thank you for saving the strong man, I don't know..."
The words are not finished yet. I saw that the man tore off the veil and was gently stunned. It turned out to be Xiaonuo!
Gentle and surprised, she hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Xiaonuo." What are you doing here? ”
Xiaonuo: "Fortunately, I'm here, although I don't know martial arts." Fortunately, it's okay to work lightly. Originally, I wanted to sneak out to see you, but I didn't expect to know that you and Sister Jiayin had come to Jian's Mansion as soon as I arrived at home, so I hurriedly followed. ”
Gently hugged Xiaonuo tightly. Said: "Xiaonuo." Thanks to you, I don't know if Jiayin and I would have been able to escape. ”
Xiaonuo: "I was about to enter Jian's Mansion when I saw you rushing out. So I'm here to answer you, and I don't know martial arts, and I don't dare to come forward. ”
Gentle looked at Zuo Jiayin, who had fainted in Xiaonuo's arms, only to find that Zuo Jiayin had been hit by an arrow in the back, Gentle was startled, she always thought that Zuo Jiayin was injured when she was fighting in Jianfu, and when she calmed down and thought about it, she remembered that when she was in chaos just now, Zuo Jiayin used her body to block the arrow for herself, and immediately felt very remorseful, and shouted again and again: "Jiayin, Jiayin..."
Xiaonuo was very calm, and said: "Don't worry, I've seen it, the blood that comes out is red, it shouldn't be poisonous, and the only hope now is that this arrow won't hit Sister Jiayin's vital point." ”
Gently said to the coachman: "Hurry up! ”
Gentle and annoyed: "I knew that I really shouldn't have come to the place, not only did I not help Jiayin, but also made her get hurt, I really deserve to die, why am I useless?" ”
Xiaonuo gently patted the gentle shoulder, and said, "Don't say that, everyone is a family, and you can think of using your body to save you in a critical situation, which means that Sister Jiayin cares about you very much." ”
Gently nodded sadly, and said, "I hurt her countless times, misunderstood her, she never blamed me, I..."
Xiaonuo: "Sister Gentle, okay, don't blame yourself, if you hadn't come, Sister Jiayin might not have been able to break out of the encirclement." ”
When the carriage was still nearly a mile away from home, the carriage turned and drove towards another place, gently lifted the curtain and looked at it, and said to the coachman, "Go home, where are you going?" ”
Xiao Nuo pulled Wen Rou back into the car and said, "I agreed with the coachman before, I'm worried that someone will follow me behind, Tianchu hasn't found evidence to prove that Jian Qi is playing tricks now, and we can't startle the snake now." ”
Wen Rou saw that Zuo Jiayin's face was getting paler and paler, so he said, "Then where are we going, Jiayin won't last long." ”
Xiaonuo: "Don't worry, I have already told Tianchu before leaving, if one of you is injured, we will change the direction and go to Yang Sanniang's house to hide, Miss Liu'er will know medical skills, and Tianchu will fight with us wherever he is." ”
Gentleness: "Then you won't be discovered?" ”
Xiaonuo: "At least we didn't enter the door of the Meng Mansion directly, besides, aren't there Chai Meng and Dragon Slayer by Tianchu's side?" They'll find a way to shake off their tails. ”
Gentleness: "Xiaonuo, you are so young, you have such a calm mind, I have to be impressed by you." ”
Xiaonuo smiled and said, "These are all given to me by my father, you forgot, my dream is to be the first female general of the Ming Dynasty." ”
Seeing that Xiaonuo could still joke with herself easily, she couldn't help but relax a little.
The carriage made its way into the slums south of the city, which was full of alleys, and soon disappeared into the night.
In the dim candlelight, it was Jian Ning's pale face, she lay on the bed, looking coldly at the familiar and strange man in front of her, this man who gave her life, but trampled on this life mercilessly, this man who destroyed his own woman with his own hands, it was this man who let himself lose his mother's love at a young age, and even let the maid around his mother take the lead, and his mother was killed by the maid who was close to him, and the man in front of him ignored the disappearance of a life because of the woman's enchantment and coquettishness, It was this man who made himself lose almost everything.
Jian Qi coughed dryly twice, seeing that Jian Ning had been silent, he finally couldn't help but stand up, and the housekeeper on the side hurriedly followed Jian Qi, like a pug, and said with a smile: "Master, that old mother woke up, and she refused to say anything, saying that someone knocked her unconscious, and she didn't see anything." ”
Jian Qi nodded, walked to Jian Ning's side, and said solemnly: "Ning'er, dad asks again, who came to see you, is it someone sent by Meng Tianchu?" ”
Jian Ning sneered and said, "If you want to kill you, you can kill it." How many times have I told you, I don't know those two people at all. I just asked me again and again what kind of ledger I wanted, and if you didn't believe me, there was no way for me, so you could pull me out and beat me with dozens of whips. ”
The housekeeper said, "Miss." The master is also for your good, you will explain it a day earlier. Just go back to your clean and warm boudoir a day earlier and stay. You see that this place is smelly and dirty, and the old man feels distressed when he looks at it. ”
Jian Ning didn't pay attention to what the butler was saying, and only glanced at him coldly. "I don't know them." What do you want me to say? ”
Jian Qi: "Then tell me whether those two people are men or women, and what they look like." ”
Jian Ning: "People are veiled. I don't know? ”
The butler showed a hideous face on the ground and said viciously, "Didn't they talk to you?" I don't think you want to live anymore. ”
Jian Ning smiled indifferently and said, "Dad, I know you feel sorry for me, and you also want to know where I put the things you want, right?" ”
Seeing Jian Ning suddenly say this, Jian Qi felt hopeful, so he said: "Yes, Ning'er, Dad doesn't want to, but you have to know that if that thing is discovered by Meng Tianchu, not only me will be implicated at that time, but even you will be implicated." ”
Jian Ning nodded and said, "Okay, I can tell you."
When Jian Qi heard this, he looked at the housekeeper happily, and then said, "Then you tell me quickly." ”
Jian Ning suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at the housekeeper and said, "Then you whip him fifty lashes first, and I'll tell you later." ”
When the housekeeper heard this, he was immediately stunned, looked at Jian Qi cautiously, and said, "Master, she must want to take revenge on me, she won't tell you, don't be fooled." ”
Jian Qi glanced at the housekeeper, and then said to Jian Ning, "What if I hit him, but you didn't give me what I wanted?" ”
Jian Ning smiled and said: "He's just a slave, and I'm your biological daughter, if this family really wants to be implicated, that person is not him but me, what do you say?" If you can't even believe your own daughter, then you can just slap me to death. ”
After hearing this, Jian Qi turned to look at the housekeeper, the housekeeper quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, Jian Qi was about to speak, Jian Ning said: "And the person who beats him must be personally chosen by myself, and he must be on the ground in front of me when he beats the ground." ”
Jian Qi: "Ling'er, you see that this housekeeper is old, if he really smokes fifty lashes, it will die, if you think he has disrespect or neglect for you, I will let him teach him a lesson, is fifty whips too heavy?" ”
After hearing this, the housekeeper naturally understood that Jian Qi was pleading for himself, and he didn't expect Jian Ning to make such a move, so he quickly knelt in front of Jian Ning's bed and begged: "Miss, it's not right to be a slave in the past, you have a lot of adults, just spare me this time, I don't dare anymore." ”
Jian Ning smiled and said, "Since my father feels so sorry for you, I can't say anything more." ”
When the housekeeper heard this, he was about to say words of thanks, but he saw Jian Ning stretch his waist and said, "Then you all go back, this firewood room is so cold, don't freeze your father, the housekeeper and Mother Liu, if you haven't thought about whether to torture me, I want to go to bed first." ”
When Jian Qi heard this, he knew that Jian Ning was the king of the eight who ate the scales, so he was ruthless and said, "Someone, tie up the housekeeper for me and take it to the yard." ”
When the housekeeper heard this, he begged Jian Qi for mercy again and again, where could Jian Qi take care of a slave at this time, if he beat the housekeeper Jian Ning could really call out the account book, he could even hand over all the people around him to Jian Ning to get angry, as long as he could keep himself, besides, those two people should have come to the account book tonight, and if they didn't get it from Jian Ning, those two people would not give up, if it was really not the person sent by Meng Tianchu, then it means that he was not the only one who peeked at the account book, It's always good to start early.
Xiao Nuo and Wen Rou helped Zuo Jiayin to Liu Er's house, where Meng Tianchu, Chai Meng, and Slayer Long were already waiting.
Seeing that Zuo Jiayin was injured, everyone hurriedly stepped forward, and Xiaonuo said to He Ding and Yang Sanniang: "Please go and boil some hot water, and the other go to the door to watch it, okay?" ”
The two of them hurriedly went out, and Liu Er stepped forward, looked at the injury, and said, "Men should go out temporarily." ”
Chai Meng and Tu Long also hurried out after hearing this, Meng Tianchu stepped forward, and when he saw Liu Er frowning, he was a little worried, and asked, "Is it serious?" ”
Liu Er nodded and said, "Although the arrow is not poisonous." But the arrows are very deep, and I am worried that it will easily cause heavy bleeding. Sister Jiayin won't be able to stand it. ”
Suddenly, Zuo Jiayin groaned, and Meng Tianchu hurriedly shouted: "Jiayin, Jiayin." ”
Zuo Jiayin opened his eyes. The first sentence asks, "Is it okay to be gentle?" ”
After listening to it gently, I couldn't help but cry sadly. Holding Zuo Jiayin's hand. Said: "Jiayin, I'm fine, I'm fine." You've saved me again. ”
Zuo Jiayin smiled slightly. Said: "As long as you are safe, you will have to hurry tomorrow." Thousand... Don't get hurt. ”
Gently cried and said, "I'm not leaving, I'm not going anywhere." ”
Zuo Jiayin shook his head lightly and said, "Fool, I have nothing to do, you can leave with confidence." ”
Liu'er: "Sister Jiayin, you are awake now, I will discuss one thing with you, your arrow wound may be relatively deep, I don't have anything here to relieve your pain, I am worried about how to pull out this arrow." ”
Zuo Jiayin: "Don't worry, you can do it for me with peace of mind, you can put a piece of cloth in my mouth, no cloth, a wooden stick is fine, come on, I believe in you." ”
The sweat on Liu Er's forehead came out, and at this time, Yang Sanniang said outside the door: "The hot water has been boiled." ”
Zuo Jiayin looked at Liu Er and said in a weak voice, "Let's start." ”
Liu Er gritted her teeth and said to Wen Wen: "Please bring me water, I'm going to start." ”
Meng Tianchu walked up to Liu'er and encouraged: "Don't worry, I also know something, I will be there when you need my help." ”
Liu Er looked at Meng Tianchu's encouraging eyes and nodded.
Not far away, the watchman knocked on the third watch, and suddenly a terrible scream came from above the night sky, and the sound was not Zuo Jiayin, but from the sky above Jian Mansion.
It's rare to have a good weather, Mengfu is the same as usual, the subordinates and the maids get up early in the morning to clean the yard and each room, everyone performs their duties, and they are talking and laughing and doing their work, at this time the people in the hall ran to Lao Hetou, saying that there were guests coming, Lao He Tou felt puzzled, and hurriedly went out to greet him, it was the right political envoy Jian Qi with a few subordinates with some gift boxes have entered the door.
Lao He hurriedly stepped forward to greet him with a smile, Jian Qi looked around with a smile, and said, "When is this, your master hasn't gotten up yet?" ”
Lao He said with a smile: "I've gotten up a long time ago, isn't the second lady going to hurry today?" Everyone got up early, and even the little master didn't sleep lazy. ”
When Jian Qi heard this, she chuckled in her heart, and still smiled and said, "Where is the second lady, you want to hurry?" ”
Lao He was about to speak, only to see Meng Tianchu walking out with a family laughing all the way, and when he saw Meng Tianchu come out, Jian Qi secretly felt weak, but after all, he was a veteran of the battlefield, and he was still stable at this point.
Jian Qi laughed a few times first, Meng Tianchu pretended to see Jian Qi, both of them walked towards each other with a smile, and after each saluted, Jian Qi looked at the people behind Meng Tianchu, and said with a smile: "It seems that I didn't come at the right time, where are Lord Meng's family going?" ”
Meng Tianchu said with a smile: "Gentle mother's health is sick, and Gentle has always been concerned, so let her go back to Beijing first, anyway, it won't be long before I have to go to Beijing, and then I will bring her back." ”
Jian Qi felt even more wrong when he heard that Meng Tianchu was also going to enter Beijing, so he said, "Is Lord Meng entering Beijing?" ”
Meng Tianchu smiled and said: "I should have gone to Beijing a long time ago, but there have been miscellaneous things at home, so I have been delaying it again and again, and it is the matter of Long Live Lord asking me to go to Beijing to restore my life." ”
Jian Qi was relieved at this time, as if he should not go for this incident, so he said, "It seems that Lord Meng is going to be promoted again." ”
Meng Tianchu pretended to laugh a few times and said, "How is it possible? Hahaha, by the way, I don't know if Master Jane came today..."
Jian Qi immediately turned around and pointed to the gift boxes behind him and said, "This is some of the food and drink things that my niece brought back from the capital, I will also send some to Lord Meng, it is not a good thing, and I hope Lord Meng will accept it with a smile." ”
Meng Tianchu deliberately pretended to be very moved, thanked him again and again, and after letting his subordinates carry those gift boxes away, he said, "Otherwise, Lord Jian will give up a light meal, and I will send the second lady out of the city and come back." ”
Jian Qi hurriedly said: "Master Meng, don't be so polite, there will be opportunities to drink in the future, you are busy with yours first, and I will leave."
Meng Tianchu naturally wanted to keep it, Jian Qi saw that he didn't see any clues, and he felt bored, so he insisted on saying goodbye and leaving, Meng Tianchu sent Jian Qi to the door, and suddenly Jian Qi looked back at the people in the crowd, and said with a smile: "Why didn't you see the talented and beautiful third lady of Lord Meng?" ”
Meng Tianchu listened, smiled, and said, "I drank a little more yesterday, and I just got up just now, as if I was dressing up." ”
Jian Qi sighed, but slowed down his pace and said, "Otherwise, I will send the second lady out of the city with Lord Meng." ”
Meng Tianchu secretly called out to the old fox, but said with a smile on his face: "No need, how dare you dare to work hard for Lord Jian." ”
As he was talking, he saw Zuo Jiayin's upper body wearing a rose purple satin water-red brocade jacket, embroidered with dense patterns, the placket was inlaid with real pearl emerald collars, covered with a gold-edged pipa placket, and tied a pink brocade silk satin skirt. He walked over towards Meng Tianchu and Jian Qi with a light smile.
Jian Qi saw that Zuo Jiayin's footsteps were steady, his face was like a peach blossom, and there was no trace of illness, and all the people around Meng Tianchu, including Chai Meng and Tu Long, were by his side, according to what Liu's mother said the day before, it should be two women to find Jian Ning, so it seems that Meng Tianchu's only two wives who know kung fu are not injured, and one of them is going to Beijing today, in this case, Meng Tianchu's possibility is much smaller.
Zuo Jiayin walked to Jian Qi's side with a smile, bowed and saluted, Jian Qi said: "Since Master Meng is polite and doesn't let me send it, I won't send it, you guys hurry up and get in the car, I won't delay the second lady to hurry." ”
