"Mother, didn't I talk to her well?" Chu Lingxiao's face was pale, and his heart was still surging with anger, "The person who did it was her, not me!" ”

The doctor who showed Chu Lingxiao the injured leg had just left, and until now, Chu Lingxiao's left leg was still aching, repeatedly reminding him of what the Shen family had done to him.

Mrs. Tai sighed secretly in her heart, worried that if their husband and wife continued to make trouble, it would be detrimental to the Hou Mansion, so she could only continue to persuade: "Ling Xiao, don't be angry with Ah Zhi, and don't spoil Min Shan too much and ignore Ah Zhi." ”

"As a woman, I also know Ah Zhi's thoughts, the reason why she indulges Sister Chen'er like this is actually just to be angry with you, she is not a person who knows proportion, you see, didn't she send Sister Chen'er away?"

The corners of Chu Lingxiao's lips curled slightly, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes. Shen Zhi regretted it, right? She couldn't pull her face to apologize, so she showed favor to herself by sending Chu Qianchen away.

Mrs. Tai tried to move with emotion, and then said: "You and A Zhi, as well as Sister Huang and Brother Mu, you should always think about them." ”

"Now, Ah Zhi has taken a step back, Ling Xiao, you are a man, you should have a manly bearing, don't be so tough, just lower your body and coax Ah Zhi more."

Chu Lingxiao was not happy to coax the Shen family, so he said casually: "Mother, I know." ”

Knowing her son Mo Ruo's mother, Mrs. Tai could see that her son was still making trouble, her forehead ached faintly, she was tired, and she secretly sighed in her heart that her children were debts.

She thought for a while, and said euphemistically: "Ling Xiao, the days will be long in the future, it is not a way for you and A Zhi to go on like this, listen to your mother, you still move back to live with A Zhi, and you can also recuperate well." ”

"When your legs are healed, you still have a great 'future'."

Mrs. Tai increased her voice on the word future, reminding her son that in the future, he would have to rely on the Mu Guogong Mansion to go to Zhang Luo for his errands.

The reason why she suggested that Chu Lingxiao move back to the main courtyard to live with the Shen family was also to hope that the Shen family would soften when she saw Chu Lingxiao's injured leg, and that they could cultivate their relationship by living together.

Speaking of the future, Chu Lingxiao's heart was moved.

He has already managed to go to Haoguo to ask for a famous doctor who is good at surgery, and his left leg will definitely be cured, and at that time, if he wants to return to the court, he will inevitably need the help of the Duke of Mu's mansion.

Although the position of the deputy commander of the Bannerman Guard has been snatched away, he may not be able to directly parachute into the position of the Bannerman Guard's commander when he waits for the king to command Ding Wei.

The heavens will descend on people, and they must first suffer their minds and muscles......

He first endured the humiliation and waited for the opportunity, that is, as long as he sat in the position of the commander of the flag guard in the future, he would naturally be able to show his face in front of the emperor, and sooner or later he could be reused by the emperor like Lu Siji, the commander of the Jinyi guard.

Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, when he is beautiful, it will be the turn of the Mu Guogong Mansion to bow to him, and the Shen family doesn't want to look at his face and grovel to him!

Hmph, at that time, there will be revenge, and there will be revenge.

Chu Lingxiao finally showed a smile between his eyebrows, and said, "Mother, I will move back to the main courtyard today." ”

As he spoke, he instructed the eldest maid, "You go back and pack up first." ”

"Yes, Master Hou." The big girl hurriedly bent her knees and walked out of the house.

Seeing that her son had really figured it out, Mrs. Tai was relieved, and cautiously said, "Ling Xiao, Sister Chen's matter ......"

She wanted to remind her son not to quarrel with the Shen family again because of Chu Qianchen.

Speaking of Chu Qianchen, Mrs. Tai felt a trace of disgust in her heart, this second granddaughter is really a troublemaker, making the family have no peace.

"Mother, Chu Qianchen can't stay!" Chu Lingxiao emphasized.

Just now he told the Shen family to let Chu Qianchen die violently, but the Shen family just didn't want to, and he still started to do something to him, he was simply a shrew!

But now, she didn't give in, and took the initiative to send Chu Qianchen to Zhuangzi!

This person, if he can take one step back, he can take another ten thousand steps back, this time, he has to let the Shen family personally give this order.

The corners of Chu Lingxiao's mouth hooked up a sneer full of malice, and he said to himself in his heart, if he stayed for a long, long time, he would always let her know......

When that time comes, what kind of expression will she show?!

Thinking about the distant future, Chu Lingxiao's heart suddenly felt a lot happier, and he felt that the burden of forbearance and humiliation in front of him was nothing.

He picked up his crutches and walked out as he said, "I know in my heart, and I will figure it out slowly." ”

At this time, the eldest maid pushed the door and went to the hall outside, and as soon as the door opened, the voices of their mother and son reached outside.

Outside the hall, a young man in blue happened to walk under the eaves and heard Chu Lingxiao's two words in the house: "Mother, Chu Qianchen can't stay!" I know it in my heart, and I'll figure it out slowly. ”

Chu Yunyi froze, standing there like a stone sculpture, motionless.

Chu Lingxiao's two words echoed in his ears repeatedly.

The reason why he came to Rongfutang was because he heard that Chu Qianchen had gone to Zhuangzi and wanted to come over to inquire about the situation, but he heard the words of Chu Lingxiao and Mrs. Tai.

Chu Yunyi couldn't stay any longer, he felt that he couldn't face his grandmother and father at all, ignoring the shouts of the maid behind him, and strode out of the courtyard.

"Young Master, Young Master, ......"

The maid shouted louder and louder, and Chu Yunyi did not look back, but walked faster and faster.

This movement also alarmed Mrs. Tai and Chu Lingxiao in the room, and both of them changed their faces slightly.

After Chu Yunyi left Rongfu Hall, he rushed to Qinghui Courtyard in a hurry, naturally to find Aunt Jiang.

"Auntie, do you know about the second sister's trip to Zhuangzi?" Chu Yunyi said to Aunt Jiang straight to the point.

When Aunt Jiang saw her son coming, her face was full of joy, but she didn't want Chu Qianchen to say the first thing he said, and her face stiffened slightly.

Her long eyelashes trembled, and a layer of water faintly appeared in her eyes when she looked at Chu Yunyi, and nodded, "I just heard about it." ”

Chu Yunyi took a deep breath and said with difficulty: "Auntie, are you going to find your father to intercede for your second sister?" Father he...... He wanted his second sister to die violently. ”

Thinking that his father didn't miss the father-daughter relationship at all, and did not hesitate to put his second sister to death, Chu Yunyi felt chills, shock, disappointment, sadness, sadness, and all kinds of emotions were intertwined.

Aunt Jiang bit her lower lip slightly, weak and helpless, looking like she was taking her husband as the sky, "Brother Yi, your father has his own reasons for doing things." ”

"You don't know, do you? For the emperor's marriage, your father didn't sleep all night last night......"

Chu Yunyi's whole person was like falling into an ice cellar, and his heart was cold.

So, my father didn't sleep all night, and the way he thought of coping with it was to kill his second sister?!

The second sister is his biological daughter!

And their own mother was indifferent to this......

Chu Yunyi's ears couldn't help but think of Shen's sincere and gentle voice yesterday: "Sister Chen, don't worry, with me, I won't let you marry in vain......"

My mother-in-law can run for the second sister, and I went back to the Muguo Mansion today, but what about their aunt?!

Chu Yunyi only felt that he could no longer face Aunt Jiang, and turned around silently.

Aunt Jiang also felt that something was wrong with her son's emotions, so she hurriedly got up from the Luohan bed and called, "Brother Yi, listen to me......"

She quickly chased after Chu Yunyi, trying to grab his arm, but Chu Yunyi walked faster than her, making her catch a ......

Chu Yunyi opened the curtain and went out, and the door curtain brushed the ground and fell, trembling lightly in midair.

Aunt Jiang bit her lip again, Chu Chu was pitiful, and her eldest maid hurriedly comforted her: "Auntie, the eldest young master is still young, and he will understand the hard ......work of Hou Ye and you in the future."

These words could no longer reach Chu Yunyi's ears, and after he left Qinghui Courtyard, he went in the direction of Yimen, and led a horse to leave the mansion, but was stopped here at Jiaomen.

"Brother Yi, where are you going?"

Chu Lingxiao was carried by someone on his shoulder, and motioned to the two guards with his eyes to block the corner gate and not let Chu Yunyi go out.

Just now, after Chu Yunyi left Rongfu Hall, Chu Lingxiao and Mrs. Tai asked people to chase him, and when the maid chased him to Qinghui Courtyard, he was a step late, Chu Yunyi had already left, so Chu Lingxiao led people to chase him here in a hurry.

Chu Yunyi looked directly at Chu Lingxiao calmly, and the face that was four or five points similar to Chu Lingxiao was written with the stubbornness unique to young people, "I'm going to find the second sister!" ”

Chu Lingxiao asked, "Brother Yi, did you just hear me talking to your grandmother?" ”

"......" Chu Yunyi's thin lips pursed into a straight line.

His silence was tantamount to acquiescence.

Chu Lingxiao patiently explained: "Brother Yi'er, you just heard a few words, I'm afraid that you have a misunderstanding between me and your grandmother." ”

"There was no misunderstanding." Chu Yunyi said coldly, his voice was hard, "You just have to say, do you want the second sister to die violently!" ”

Chu Lingxiao's face was not very good-looking.

"Violent death" or something is a kind of external statement, and the noble families in Beijing all know what is going on, and they just talk about it in private, but no one will talk about "violent death" in public so bluntly.

The surrounding guards and subordinates naturally heard it, their faces were a little strange, and they only hated themselves for having ears. It's better not to know this kind of Hou Fu Yin than to know.

"Brother Yi'er, don't make trouble." Chu Lingxiao calmed down, softened his tone, and tried to reason with his eldest son, "There are some things you don't understand, you go back to Rongfutang with me first, and then we can talk about ......."

Chu Yunyi answered Chu Lingxiao with practical actions, and was about to continue walking forward with the horse, looking like he didn't want to say much.

Chu Lingxiao had a headache, and his heart was dry, angry and hateful, feeling that Chu Qianchen was really a broom star, and even Chu Yunyi was bewitched by her and separated from himself.

He really couldn't do anything about his eldest son, he didn't beat him, he didn't scold, so he had to order: "Come on, stop the eldest young master, send him back to Qingfeng Pavilion, and look good!" ”

His implication was to put Chu Yunyi under house arrest temporarily.

The guards could only approach Chu Yunyi, surrounded the people in groups, and said apologetically: "Young Master, don't make it difficult for your subordinates!" ”

Chu Yunyi's fists were invincible to his four hands, and he brushed his sleeves away.

After a while, the corner gate became empty again.

With so many pairs of eyes staring at the Hou Mansion, all this that happened here in Yimen naturally couldn't be hidden from everyone, and the Shen family quickly got a report.

“…… Hou Ye asked the eldest young master not to go to school recently, and to reflect on it in the house, when he figured it out, and when he came out again. Mama Chen added with emotion.

Shen sneered at the corners of his mouth, "Brother Lian Yi'er, this kid has a much better conscience than Chu Lingxiao. ”

Chu Lingxiao and Jiang Minshan are selfish, but the children they gave birth to are not at all like their father and mother, and having such brothers and sisters is also a blessing for Brother Mu.

Mama Chen was also embarrassed and praised: "It's also Madame, you teach well." ”

Chu Yunyi is the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, in the years when he was born, the Shen family only had Chu Qianhuang, a concubine, under his knees, and he also raised Chu Yunyi for a while, at that time, Chu Lingxiao persuaded her every day to keep Chu Yunyi in her name.

Later, after the Shen family gave birth to Chu Yunmu, Chu Lingxiao suddenly proposed to let Chu Yunyi move to the outer courtyard, and then except for the first and fifteenth days of the new year, he generally stopped coming over on weekdays.

Shen knew that this was what Chu Lingxiao meant, and he was not reluctant.

Shen didn't continue the topic, changed the conversation, and instructed Dongmei: "Dongmei, you go and bring the Halloween gift, and I'll do it one last time." ”

The day after tomorrow is the Birthday Festival, the birthday gift to the emperor can not make a mistake, Shen is very solemn, repeatedly checked, and even Mama Chen and Dongmei They are also affected, and everything is done by themselves.

Dongmei quickly brought the gift list and birthday gift, and Shen carefully checked it again, and asked people to lock it in the warehouse of the main courtyard.

Mama Chen knew that the Shen family had been worried a lot recently, so she took the initiative to propose: "Madam, don't worry, the slave and maid must go back to the warehouse three times a day to check, and nothing can go wrong." ”

Dongmei also smiled and coaxed Shen: "Madam, do you want to eat a bowl of rock sugar bird's nest porridge?" ”

"This bird's nest porridge is still the food supplement formula given by the second girl before she left today, adding a few herbs, the second girl said that you didn't sleep well last night, eating it can nourish yin and moisturize dryness, nourish qi and strengthen the body, and then light the soothing incense to ensure that you have a good night's sleep tonight."

A warm current flowed in Shen's heart, and he nodded, "Bring it up." ”

Dongmei responded with a smile and exchanged a look with Mama Chen.

However, before the rock sugar bird's nest porridge was served, a little maid came and said, "Madam, Master Hou is here." ”

The smile on the corner of Shen's mouth disappeared in an instant, and he raised his eyebrows in disgust, and only gave two words: "No." ”

The maid truthfully conveyed Shen's meaning to Chu Lingxiao.

Chu Lingxiao: "......"

Before Chu Lingxiao came, he wanted to coax the Shen family and move back to the main courtyard to live, he thought that the Shen family was showing favor to himself by sending Chu Qianchen to Zhuangzi, but he didn't expect that she would block herself out of the house, and she didn't even want to see herself.

"Smack!"

The slap in Rongfu Hall just now clearly echoed in Chu Lingxiao's ears.

Chu Lingxiao's face was blue and white, his teeth were clenched, and he hated in his heart: This Shen is simply shameless!

Chu Lingxiao was so angry that he brushed his sleeves and said angrily: "Go!" ”

He was carried by his shoulder, and then carried away like this, and his feet fell to the ground.

Chu Lingxiao touched a nail in the main courtyard, and this matter spread all over the Hou Mansion all at once.

No matter where Chu Lingxiao went, he felt that others were watching his jokes, so he went back to the outer study directly, and never went out again, and even went to Rongfutang that night and early the next morning to say goodbye to Mrs. Tai.

Tomorrow is the Longevity Festival, and the capital is filled with a unique joy of the festival, and the Hou Mansion also hangs a red lantern inside and outside the house.

Chu Lingxiao didn't care about this, he originally planned to continue to hide in the house and not go out, but he didn't want to, at noon, the emperor's big eunuch Ni Gonggong came to pass on the emperor's message.

Chu Lingxiao didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly went to the main gate, and asked people to pass on the Shen family.

When the couple arrived at the Waiyi Gate, Father-in-law Ni happened to fall from the carriage with the support of the little chamberlain.

"Grandpa Ni." Chu Lingxiao arched his hand at Gonggong Ni diligently, and Shen smiled decently.

Father-in-law Ni shook off the silver-white Buddha dust in his hand, and said casually: "Master Hou, Mrs. Hou, our family came today to pass on the emperor's orders. ”

Chu Lingxiao and Shen saluted one after another, respectfully making a gesture of listening to the oracle.

Father-in-law Ni cleared his throat and began to pass on the message: "The emperor has an order, on the day of the Wanshou Festival, the second girl of the Chu family is allowed to go to the banquet with Mrs. Hou!" ”

What the?! Chu Lingxiao was dumbfounded.

Gonggong Ni continued: "His Royal Highness King Chen is sick, and he can't enter the palace tomorrow to congratulate the emperor on his birthday, the second girl of Chu is the future Princess Chen, and the emperor said that they are all a family, and they should move around more." ”

Of course, Chu Lingxiao would not believe what the emperor said, the emperor wanted King Chen to die, how could he treat King Chen as his own.

In the final analysis, the emperor deliberately gave this grace and let Chu Qianchen enter the palace to participate in the longevity banquet, but he also did it for outsiders to see.

Chu Lingxiao thought for a while, and said after considering his words: "Father-in-law Ni, the little girl is sick and went to Zhuangzi to recuperate, I am afraid that she will not be able to enter the palace tomorrow." ”

Chu Lingxiao tried to show loyalty to the emperor in this way, and wanted to tell the emperor that their Chu family would definitely keep a distance from King Chen's mansion and would definitely not lean towards King Chen.

He felt that these words were very beautiful, and took a step closer to Father-in-law Ni, and quietly stuffed a thick red seal into the other party through the cover of the cuffs......

However, Ni's father-in-law's face changed in an instant, and his smile disappeared completely.

He is a shrewd person, and he heard a deep meaning from Chu Lingxiao's unclear sentence, Chu Lingxiao was dissatisfied with this family business, drove his daughter to Zhuangzi, and claimed that she was sick.

Now that I'm sick, in two days, shouldn't this person be gone?!

Chu Lingxiao: This is simply trying to spoil the emperor's holy will!

Father-in-law Ni couldn't help but be glad that he had come here today to spread the word, otherwise in a few days, they would probably have the news of Chu Qianchen's death.

This Yongding Hou really has no eyes! Father-in-law Ni said secretly.

He shook the dust suddenly, and the silver-white dust was thrown heavily on the back of Chu Lingxiao's hand like a whip.

"Smack!"

Chu Lingxiao snorted in pain, there was an extra red mark thrown off the back of his hand, and the red seal in his hand also came out of his hand and fell on the bluestone brick ground below.

Chu Lingxiao didn't know what he was wrong at all, and his face changed pale and white.

Shen on the side was silent from beginning to end, and a sneering smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Our family kindly reminds the Hou Ye," Ni Gonggong said in a weird manner, "The emperor attaches great importance to the future Princess Chen, if Ling Yan has any three longs and two shorts, then the Yongding Marquis Mansion is waiting to win the title and convict." ”

What the?! Chu Lingxiao almost suspected that he was hallucinating, and he didn't react for a while.

Gonggong Ni was annoyed when he looked at Chu Lingxiao, but for the emperor's major affairs, he still patiently warned again: "Master Hou, the thunder, rain and dew are all Jun Grace, and the monarch and the ministers have to die." ”

The meaning in Father-in-law Ni's words was simply to force the Yongding Marquis Mansion to death, Chu Lingxiao only felt that his brain was buzzing, and he was even more panicked than the day before yesterday, and the panic was followed by fear.

It was as if black and white impermanence was approaching him step by step from behind with a soul chain.

Gonggong Ni is the great eunuch in front of the emperor and the emperor's confidant, and his words are definitely not to scare himself, that is to say, if Chu Qianchen really dies violently, the emperor will definitely issue an order to seize the title.

Then, the title of the Marquis of Yongding will be cut off in his hands, and he will become the eternal sinner of the Chu family!

Chu Lingxiao was completely confused, and he couldn't think calmly at all.

"Hou Ye, Hou Ye......"

When he came back to his senses at the call of the little servant, he found that it was already empty in front of him, the vermilion lacquer gate of the Hou Mansion was wide open, and Gonggong Ni left with a group of angels.

Chu Lingxiao's chest rose and fell violently.

He felt as if his chest had been crushed by a heavy object, it was painful and stuffy, and his breathing became more and more rapid, as if he was about to lose his breath at any moment.

The little guy was a little worried, and asked cautiously: "Master Hou, do you want to invite the big ......?"

Before he finished his words, he saw Chu Lingxiao's upper body leaning forward, and a mouthful of blood spit out of his mouth with a "wow".

The blood that still had residual warmth sprayed on the little girl's face and robe, which was shocking.
