Chapter 139: Before Gathering in the Hall, Carefully Check the Register

Fu Lian Zhao died, Wu Shuyuan grieved, so she imitated the custom of burning the seven sacrifices, and every seven days would invite the empty master of Luojia Temple to enter the house to hold Buddhist affairs, set up a prayer to chant sutras, and surpass the dead, until 7749 days can be completed.

Fu Lian Zhao Shaohua lost her life, and Princess Xiao Wei of Fufeng has since become a child without a mother, young and ignorant, she cried heartbreakingly on the day of her mother's death, and seemed to feel the grief and sadness as deep as the abyss.

Since Fu Lianzhao married into the Assassin's Mansion, Xiao Zong has ignored her, disgusted and disgusted, indifferent and ruthless, as if she had done some great unforgivable disaster, Fu Lianzhao has never felt the slightest warmth and tenderness brought to her by Xiao Zong since then, everything is cautious, step by step is like walking on thin ice, and she silently bears endless loneliness and sadness in this high-walled deep courtyard.

However, Zheng Xiaoqiao's arrival made the only remaining star hope in her heart disappear, Fu Lianzhao has been more cautious since then, and put all his thoughts on Xiao Wei's body, but even so, Zheng Xiaoqiao is still pressing step by step like a life-seeking ghost, resenting each other, Fu Lianzhao still did not escape the tragic end of his life in the end, which is really regrettable.

Xiao Wei lost her mother, and now in the huge Thorn History Mansion, no one loves her and protects her except Wu Shuyuan and Ziying, Xiao Zong, as a father, cares about it, and Zheng Xiaoqiao is also hiding in the shadows, Xiao Wei's situation is still delicate and worrying.

A few years ago, Fu Lianzhao saved Ziying's life, the amnesiac Ziying had nowhere to be home, in order to repay the kindness, Fu Lianzhao regarded her as a sister, nothing to talk about, ruthless and not to complain, Ziying is also often accompanied by the left and right to serve wholeheartedly, because of its joy and joy, because of its sadness and sorrow, the pain and torture suffered by Fu Lianzhao before his death are all imprinted on his heart, pierced into the bone marrow, she knows what she has experienced, she knows how the purgatory-like Thorn Mansion tortures the innocent and kind beauty little by little, and destroys it step by step.

Parents died early, and this time I lost my closest sister, Ziying was in pain, all thoughts were discouraged, what flowers in the pavilion, the moon in the building, what the vermilion pavilion, the window railing, there were a few happy memories, hazy, and now I have a lot of sad tears, and I can't look back.

Ziying had no intention of cherishing everything here, and planned to leave this place of right and wrong, but in a blink of an eye, she dispelled her thoughts, she turned back and quietly looked at Xiao Mei's pure eyes like water, as well as the immature and innocent smile, tears flashed in an instant, if she let go of her heart and left, she seemed to have seen Xiao Mei's future, she couldn't bear to leave her here alone, and it was even more unbearable to watch her grow up in the boundless grievances and grievances.

Now that Fu Lian Zhao is gone, the young Xiao Wei is unattended, Xiao Zong doesn't care about it, Zheng Xiaoqiao has a bad heart, if he leaves now, in case Xiao Liao has three long and two short how to deal with the ups and downs of Lian Zhao's spirit in the sky, at this time he should stay anyway, even if he is unwilling in his heart... After careful consideration, Ziying decided to stay, and vowed to treat Xiao Mei as her own flesh and blood from now on until she grew up.

"Which kidnapped Mei'er?!" Wu Shuyuan clutched the silk handkerchief and asked angrily. Fu Lian Zhao Si'er died, Wu Shuyuan lamented night and night, Hua Fa was reborn, and he was even more annoyed with the thief who kidnapped Xiao Liao at the beginning, vowing to catch this thief with a thousand knives, and relieve the hatred in his heart, so he sent someone to investigate carefully, and then called the waiter who found Xiao Liao that day into the hall for questioning.

According to the truth, Wu Shuyuan got up and asked, "Do you recognize that gang of thieves?" The waiter shook his head, "Mrs. Hui, there was a lot of fighting between the two sides that day, and the men in black were all masked and covered their faces. Wu Shuyuan asked again: "Do you recognize the old woman?" The waiter frowned and thought carefully, then shook his head slowly.

Wu Shuyuan was about to sit down, but the waiter's eyes suddenly lit up again, "Mrs. Hui, that girl really doesn't recognize her humble position, but where does that old woman seem to have seen it..." Where have you seen it? When the waiter thought about it again, the figure of an old woman faintly appeared in his mind, hunched over, sweeping the courtyard with a broom in her hand, and when he passed by with a group of attendants, the old woman turned her head and smiled to greet her.

"Mrs. Hui, it seems that I have seen the old woman in the mansion..."The attendant said slowly, Wu Shuyuan was shocked, "Quickly call all the slaves in the mansion to the front of the hall!" The waiter retreated, and Wu Shuyuan hurriedly ordered the maid to bring the roll call book. After a while, all the servants of the Assassin's Mansion gathered in front of the hall, talking about each other, and then seeing Wu Shuyuan rushing out of the hall with close steps, they immediately shut up and bowed their heads.

The waiter carefully counted the roster, and the maid who called her name slowly walked to Wu Shuyuan, and Wu Shuyuan could only retreat after careful interrogation. It has been more than half an hour since the list was checked, but no abnormalities and missing people were found, Wu Shuyuan took the list and checked it again and again, and then stared at the servants and asked coldly: "There was an old woman in the house who was a servant in the house, rickety and hunchbacked, and there was a slight black mole on her left eyebrow that was very conspicuous, and she was responsible for cleaning the courtyard of the court, have you never seen it?" A handmaid was surprised when she heard this, and whispered, but Mengyan, Qingxia and Sanhua lowered their heads and were silent.

"Back to the old lady, there is indeed such a person in the house." After a while, Qingxia frowned and said, Wu Shuyuan hurriedly asked again, Qingxia replied: "According to what Mrs. said, this person is the old slave Li Xiulian of the house, who was accepted into the house by the eldest lady before her death, everyone called her Mother Li, although her mother was old but strong, she did the hard work of cleaning the courtyard of the court..." The old poisonous woman really deserves to die.. It's more innocent to die..."

Qingxia pondered: "Old lady, Mother Li is kind-hearted and diligent, and I and other little maids all see it in our eyes... Oh yes, the slave maid heard that Mother Li suddenly contracted an illness a few days ago, and went back to her hometown on leave, and she hasn't come back yet..."Wu Shuyuan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and hurriedly asked: "You also said that the old woman has strong bones, but how did she suddenly get sick?" Qingxia replied that she didn't know, and Wu Shuyuan asked: "Who allowed her to take leave?" Qingxia squinted at the scattered flowers on the side and said, "I heard that the little lady allowed it..."

"Scattered flowers! Since you are the maid by Jinzhi's side, you want to know about it, and you tell the truth, dare to deceive you at all! Wu Shuyuan asked coldly, and Sanhua was so frightened that her heart trembled and hurriedly replied: "Back to the old lady, Mother Li was indeed sent home by the little lady to recuperate because of her illness..." Let's all disperse! Qingxia and the others retreated, and Sanhua hurried to Zheng Xiaoqiao's room.

"Madame, something is wrong! The old lady called you to ask questions! Scattered flowers entered the room in a hurry, but Zheng Xiaoqiao stood up unhurriedly as if he was nothing, "What are you panicking, I have expected it a long time ago..."

"Go and invite your lordship, and I'll go with him to the old lady." Zheng Xiaoqiao instructed, Sanhua hurried to the backyard pavilion to invite Xiao Zong, Xiao Zong was sitting and laughing with Xiang Lin and others, and after listening to Sanhua's whispered report, his brows tightened, and he dispersed the small banquet and went straight to the room.

After Xiao Zong entered the room, he saw Zheng Xiaoqiao leaning on the head of the bed to hide his face and sob, crying so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, Xiao Zong hurriedly asked why, Zheng Xiaoqiao slowly complained about the grievances in his heart, Xiao Zong was depressed when he heard it, and pulled Zheng Xiaoqiao to the main hall.
