As Feng Bao's secretary when he left the palace, and the chief manager who walked outside, Xu Jue was a busy man, except at night, most of the time during the day, like most men in this year, and did not stay at home. Therefore, his wives and concubines who can't go out on weekdays often don't know how to spend a lot of time. In addition to worshipping the Buddha behind closed doors, the main wife Luo is in charge of her son Xu Xi, and the other two aunts with children can still pass the time, but the rest of the women are not so lucky, even bickering or pointing at Sang and scolding Huai has become one of the pleasures of boring life.

Mu Ne's Zhang Sanniang naturally can't make any friends among these women, as a new favorite in the backyard, she can often hear those words that deliberately mock her loudly outside. However, for these rumors, she never said them in front of Xu Jue, and she never fought back.

At this moment, Mother Liu and Si'er, who originally expected her to be favored and able to take advantage of the situation, were naturally disappointed, and over time, they rarely flattered in front of this master, and they just hung out and chatted when they had nothing to do. Zhang Sanniang didn't control them, and only did needlework with the cloves, who could sit still. Since Lilac treats her sincerely, she occasionally talks to her about something.

And needlework is a skill she has practiced since she was a child, even if she entered the capital, she has not broken it, at that time it was to make up for her biological mother who was a yuan match but had no housekeeping rights at all. Now that she has become Xu Jue's person, she has been able to exchange for Zhang Whale to treat her mother's illness, but she still can't stop doing it. Because when she entered the door, the cage she sent was very rich, but it was Zhang Whale's silver to bribe Xu Jue in disguise, and she didn't have half of it in her hand, so the empathetic Lilac said that she quietly took the embroidered handkerchief and summer socks to the door, and asked the familiar dumb porter to take it to the market and sell it, only for more than a month, but it was also exchanged for one or two silver.

No one will pay attention to these two pieces of silver, the aunts of the Xu family or the roommates, but Zhang Sanniang is very grateful to Lilac, and she hides it like a treasure.

But on this day, when Lilac came back from the door, she saw that this girl, who had always been sincere to her, was slightly pale, and even turned her head unnaturally when facing her.

Zhang Sanniang has never been good at talking, and she didn't think much about this scene, but when Lilac sat down and did needlework with her, she pricked her fingers three times in just a short time, and she felt that something was wrong. Seeing that the other party was uncertain, she thought about it and whispered, "Is something wrong?" If you don't want to talk about it, go back to your room and go to sleep......"

"Auntie!" Ding Xiang suddenly threw the embroidered frame in her hand into the sewing basket on the side, grabbed Zhang Sanniang's hand, and said in a trembling voice, "The dumb uncle outside told me that it was you...... Your mother ......"

Zhang Sanniang's face changed greatly, she opened her mouth wide, inhaled heavily, and finally asked in horror: "What's wrong with my mother?" Lilac, tell me quickly, what's wrong with my mother? ”

"Auntie, your mother...... She was long gone. Lilac's voice was dry, and when she saw Zhang Sanniang's body shaking, she almost fell off the kang, she hurriedly held the person up, and then hurriedly said, "Auntie, you must mourn!" The Zhang family only sent someone to the door to say a word, and said that it was said by Zhang's father-in-law, the water spilled by the married person, let you serve the good master, whether or not to wear filial piety is entirely up to the Xu family, and there is no need to go back to incense. If it weren't for the dumb uncle who quietly gestured to me, I'm afraid you would still be kept in the dark. ”

"I'm going back, I'm going back!"

Seeing that Zhang Sanniang was actually supporting the lower kang and was about to rush out of the door, Lilac could only hold the person to death. The master and servant struggled for a long time before they both fell to the ground. Lilac didn't care about the hot pain of her elbow being touched, and shook Zhang Sanniang's shoulder twice: "Auntie, it's too late for you to go back, your mother left two days after you just passed the door, and she has been carried out after three days at home, Zhang Gongcheng is in Zhang Luo to continue your father's strings, saying that the people who want to marry the Zhang family can line up outside the Zhengyang Gate, it is better than letting your mother occupy the seat but not be born!" Even if it's for her, you have to live well! ”

Zhang Sanniang didn't seem to hear Lilac's persuasion, and said in despair: "I just promised my uncle to treat my mother, and he lied to me...... Why did he lie to me! ”

Ding Xiang only felt that her forehead and back were covered with sweat, and she knew deeply that if she didn't persuade Zhang Sanniang, if Liu's mother or Si'er came in and saw people like this, she would be finished. However, if there was other news from the dumb uncle on the door, she could still ignore it, but she couldn't help but tell Zhang Sanniang this news. At this moment, she could only pull the person into her arms, so she gently patted Zhang Sanniang's back like coaxing a child, comforting and persuading over and over again, until finally Zhang Sanniang was helped up by her and sat back on the bed, and she hurriedly went to fetch water to serve people to wash their faces.

Under all kinds of comfort and persuasion, it took more than half an hour for Zhang Sanniang to recover a little bit of vitality. Fortunately, Liu's mother and Si'er were so happy that no one took care of them, and they never came back to the house, Lilac also breathed a sigh of relief, re-powdered and applied makeup, and brushed her hair, she said: "I wouldn't say it if I knew it, auntie, you must look away, you have to live to have hope......"

"Hehe, hehehe......" Although Zhang Sanniang was smiling, her face was more ugly than crying, "Lilac, my mother is dead, I really don't want to live anymore, what does it mean for me to live?" I'll go and say in the evening, 'Go and serve others.'" When the time comes, I will die happily, anyway, it will be sooner or later, and it will not affect you......"

The startled Lilac subconsciously covered Zhang Sanniang's mouth, but to her surprise, Zhang Sanniang pulled her hand away, and on her pale face, the dark pupils were motionless: "Uncle only treats me as a useless woman at home, and when I enter the Xu family, the master only treats me as an ignorant nerd, do you know what my uncle said last time he came to see the master?" ”

She chuckled lowly, and just leaned into Lilac's ear, telling the conversation between Zhang Whale and Xu Jue that day. If Zhang Whale or Xu Jue were here, they would definitely find that this girl they had never taken to heart had such an excellent memory and could remember all the conversations between the two. And Lilac was so frightened that her face was like a dead man, without the slightest blood. The master and servant laughed stupidly, and the other sat there in fright, and they didn't know how long it took, and they pinched the lilac in the tiger's mouth before they came back to their senses.

"Auntie, don't say this to a third person, you can't!" Lilac pressed Zhang Sanniang's shoulders with both hands, and the strength was terrifying. Seeing that she only ignored herself, she could only grit her teeth and say, "I'll figure out a way, I'll find a way to help you get out of here!" ”

Zhang Sanniang's always dull face showed a little brilliance. She looked at Lilac in disbelief, seeing that she was staring at her eyes, she hesitated for a moment, nodded, but asked in a low voice, "Can you really get out of here?" ”

"Yes, surely." Lilac pinched her palms with sharp nails, even if she didn't have the slightest confidence, she still gritted her teeth and said, "Dead or alive, you have to try!" Auntie, you really can't read? ”

Seeing Zhang Sanniang shaking her head gloomily, Lilac's eyes suddenly became disappointed, but she thought about it and finally decided to take a gamble: "Then let's paint, and you will find a way to explain this matter with a painting, and mix it in the embroidery and embroidery for the dumb uncle to send out!" ”

The reason why Xu Jue accepted Zhang Sanniang, Zhang Whale's niece, as a concubine, and spoiled people by his side, was precisely because he asked the factory guards to carefully check that Zhang Sanniang really didn't know how to read, and it was true that Mu Ne was not valued by Zhang Whale. Even so, when Lilac helped Zhang Sanniang send embroidery and other things out to sell to the dumb uncle on the door, she would still be strictly inspected. But after so many days, I learned that Zhang Sanniang's biological mother had died, and the Zhang family did not take this daughter back to worship, and even her mother's funeral was done in a hasty manner, and it was clear that she didn't take this daughter who was sent over seriously, and this inspection became like a false story.

On the evening of this day, when Lilac sent something to the dumb uncle, the person who checked it flipped through it casually, and saw a few handkerchiefs and a few embroidery samples, without any handwriting, so he let it go.

The next morning, the porter's dumb uncle went to the bazaar to sell embroidery and embroidery samples, and came back with two quarter-cents of broken silver, which made it even more ordinary.

However, when Xiaobei got this embroidery sample, he looked at it over and over again for a while, but his face gradually changed. Since the news of Zhang Sanniang's mother's death was brought over, she has sent people to buy the embroidery sold by the dumb uncle these days, and she has carefully looked at some of them, and in addition to handkerchiefs and socks, there are also a few embroidery samples, however, it is said that this time the dumb uncle had a different look in his eyes when he took out the embroidery samples, and people bought them back. At this moment, she didn't care about a few of the seemingly exquisite lace patterns, her eyes were only on the middle pictures, and in the end, she called Yan's mother to come over for details.

"Look at the meaning on this picture, one of them is Xu Jue, and the other is ...... The garment is like a sticker, and it is also embellished with a complement. I remember when my mother invited an aunt from the palace to teach my sister and me the rules, she said that although the eunuchs could wear the stickers, they were divided into two grades, the master of ceremonies, the palm print, the pen, the Suitang, the Qianqing Palace steward's brand, and the deacons and close attendants all wore red stickers, which could be decorated with patches, while the other eunuchs of the 24 Yamen, as well as the long-susage, promise, and small fire, all wore green stickers and did not decorate the patches. In this way, it should be a celebrant or a head and face in front of the emperor who went to see Xu Jue, what else did the two discuss? ”

Hearing Xiaobei say this, Yan's mother nodded, and then said in a low voice: "That Zhang Sanniang should always know that Xu Jue is Gonggong Feng's person, if it is just Gonggong Feng's person, it will not be interesting to record it on the map, that is, it should not be from Gonggong Feng's side." And this kind of thing was actually seen by her, or rather, she was involved at all, so the person who went to see Xu Jue was probably Zhang Whale! ”

Xiaobei also thought so in his heart, and immediately said at this time: "You personally go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to deliver lunch, and then tell Xianggong that Zhang Whale may be in collusion with Xu Jue." Zhang Sanniang's matter, you just ask him, do you want to get people out and let him have an idea. If he agrees, I'll do it. ”

Yan's mother nodded, but did not bring the embroidered picture as evidence. Don't talk about the unity of husband and wife, let's just say that this little couple has always been discussed, Wang Fulin will never disbelieve Xiaobei's words, if you bring something, if there is any omission, it will be troublesome. When she took the car and brought the food box to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and after reporting that she had gone in, Wang Fulin came out unhurriedly.

After seeing her, Wang Fulin also turned his back to the door of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and deliberately complained a few words, which was nothing more than a food box for people to send in. It wasn't until she whispered uncomfortably that the young lady had something to piggyback on, and Wang Fulin followed her a few steps away. At this time, she could still hear the low snickering of the disciples behind her.

When Wang Fulin came to the carriage, she used a very low voice and a very fast speed to tell the truth about the beginning and end of Zhang Sanniang's embroidery. When she said what Xiaobei meant, she saw Wang Fulin's brows tightened, and she didn't answer immediately, but muttered for a long time.

"The stakes are too high to take any chances. In this way, you asked her to find a way to send a message to the Xu family, and let Zhang Sanniang take advantage of Xu Jue's absence to ask to go back to the Zhang family to visit her father. Didn't Xu Jue's wife say that as long as others didn't ride on her head, she wouldn't care about the concubines? As long as it is soft and hard, she will definitely agree. It's best to let the girl and the porter follow.

Because after the accident, the Xu family will definitely be investigated, and it will be difficult for them to get out. Then you check the route in advance, make a little incident when Zhang Sanniang returns, and cooperate with her to escape. Remember to guide her to Zhang Hong's private house. Although she is very innocent, this incident cannot be without her circumstantial evidence. Zhang Hong may be able to open up on the Internet for the sake of her being a woman. ”

When Yan's mother agreed, Wang Fulin thought about it and added: "You remember to tell Xiaobei that success is the best, if not, she must not be reluctant." Moreover, if you don't have time to do this tomorrow, then give up, since Zhang Hong knows that Zhang Whale is the mastermind, and he informs Feng Bao according to my words, the two of them will definitely notice that Xu Jue has accepted Zhang Whale's niece as a concubine, and sooner or later they will also play this move. We are just ahead of the curve, after all, Xu Jue is likely to realize that things have changed because Liu Shouyou took the lead before, and Zhang Hong and Feng Bao formed a line, and maybe he will get rid of Zhang Sanniang's hidden danger early. ”

When Lilac gets the news from her dumb uncle, she turns pale. After many years, she was only four or five years old when she was abducted and trafficked, and she did not see the benefactor who sent her uncle to reunite with her, but the arrival of her dumb uncle made her no longer worry about being helpless. Thinking that Zhang Sanniang did not hesitate to die, but after all, she gave up temporarily when she heard that she could leave the Xu Mansion, she finally gritted her teeth and went back to the room to quietly mention it to Zhang Sanniang.

Because Xu Jue had already sent the news that he would not come back tonight, Zhang Sanniang made a decision almost without thinking about it.

"It's a big deal to die, what else is there to think about? I will go to see my wife tomorrow, and if she doesn't promise me to go back to Zhang's house, I will die in front of her!" (To be continued.) )
