Chapter 224: There is a flower thief
Cheng'en Mansion, Bihua Temple.
Xiao Qingchu held a fan in her hand, sat under the courtyard porch, looked up at the full moon in the sky, and listened to the whispers of Mother Hua beside her.
"Madame said, let the county lord relax, there is a prince who comes forward to intercede for the girl, presumably the queen mother will not account too much, take advantage of these days, the county lord has a good rest, and in a few days, I can't say that there are many things to be busy."
Hearing this, Xiao Qingchu finally withdrew his gaze from the full moon.
"In a few days, I'll talk about it in a few days." She looked at Mother Hua faintly: "Now I just want to know, when will Xiao Qingxue die?" If she hadn't gone to King Yi to inform, the lord of this county would not have mistakenly thought that she had been favored by King Yi because of the informant, let alone ......."
Speaking of this, Xiao Qingchu remembered all the humiliations he had received in Renshou Palace, and the hatred in his heart spread in an instant.
There is nowhere to vent these hatreds, only thinking of Xiao Qingxue's death can make her happier a little.
She said hatefully: "A slut like Xiao Qingxue, who ignores the honor and disgrace of the family, reports to outsiders, and betrays the family, must not live, the county lord will let her die tonight, and he must see her die!" β
Mother Hua understood what "grievances" Xiao Qingchu had suffered, and she gently persuaded: "Don't worry, the county lord is in the third room of the Hou Mansion in the afternoon, and she has said everything that should be said...... The third wife of the small third room is a person who is afraid of things, and she will definitely be able to give our government a satisfactory explanation tonight, not that the slave and maid boast, the slave and maid do things, how can she disappoint the county lord. β
When Xiao Qing first heard this, the corners of her lips hooked slightly.
She shook the fan in her hand, and her voice softened a little: "What Mother Hua said is very true, with Mother Hua's horse, I have always been extremely ......"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Qingchu looked ahead, and his head was stunned.
In her sight, a masked black figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and in the blink of an eye, it brought down the servants and maids serving in the courtyard.
"Who are you! Come ...... "people."
The word "person" hasn't had time to say yet-
Xiao Qingchu only felt a pain in his neck, and was flashed to the man in front of him and clicked on the acupoint.
In the huge courtyard, in an instant, only Xiao Qingchu, who was pointed out and couldn't move, and-
Hua's mother was stunned.
Rao Shihua's mother was accustomed to seeing storms and waves around Duchess Chengen, and when she saw this man who appeared like a ghost, she was so shocked that she forgot to call out loudly for a while.
"Who are you, who are you...... What are you doing? Mother Hua asked in a trembling voice.
The masked Fei Yu looked at her coldly, thinking of Shen Shu's arrangement before leaving, and said in a rough voice with a stiff voice: "I heard that the county lord of Qingchu has a beautiful appearance and a moonlight, and I am naturally here to pick flowers." β
Mining, mining ...... Flower?!!
Mother Hua and Xiao Qingchu's eyes widened in horror.
Because Shen Shu said that he would only give two teas of time, Fei Yu didn't talk nonsense with them, and directly knocked Xiao Qingchu unconscious.
"I'm going to pick her flowers, if you want to call it, you can call it loudly, it's best to call all the people here, and take a good look at the young master picking flowers."
After saying this coldly to Mother Hua, Fei Yu grabbed Xiao Qingchu's collar and flew away towards the outside of the courtyard.
"Save ......"
Mother Hua looked at his back and subconsciously wanted to call for help-
Leng Buding, thinking of Fei Yu's words, hurriedly shut up.
No, you can't shout.
If it is heard, the innocence of the county lord can no longer be preserved.
The innocence of the county lord, but the glory of their mansion!
Thinking so, Mother Hua ran out of the yard with all her might, and ran towards the courtyard of Duchess Chengen, which was closest to Bihua Courtyard.
*
Two tea times later.
This mother, Hua, stumbled into the courtyard of the Duchess of Cheng'en, and reported the matter in the courtyard to the Duchess of Chengen.
Duchess Chengen just called someone and called the secret guard to the front yard to save people.
Outside, on the shore of the silent Muhuayuan Lake, a fire suddenly broke out.
In the night, a hasty and tragic cry pierced the sky: "Someone! Come on! There are flower thieves, go to the water! β
This voice was extremely clear, with terrified terrification to the extreme, and spread far away, instantly alarming the night guards of the back houses of the two mansions.
Immediately afterwards, several more voices rang out one after another in Muhua Garden-
"Where's the flower thief? Come on! Come! Catch him! β
"There's a flower thief setting fire! Come on! Come on! Save people! β
For a time, many people from the two provinces rushed to Muhua Garden.
There were even a few secret guards, from the front yard of the Cheng'en Mansion, performing light skills, and jumping towards the place where the fire started.
When Duchess Chengen got the news, her face changed, and she stood up: "Let's go, take someone with you, and go with me to have a look!" β
At the same timeβ
On the opposite side of Mirror Lake, in the lakeside pavilion in the front yard of Muhua Garden, the four uncles and nephews who were drinking were also attracted by the sound.
"Huh? Is it a drain? β
Chu Zhan was the first to dodge to the railing of the water pavilion and looked at the other side of the lake.
His peach blossom eyes flashed slightly, and he said in surprise: "How did I hear someone calling...... Flower thief? β
"Flower thief?!"
Xiao Jingzheng stood up in surprise: "The house is heavily guarded, and there are secret guards sent by the Queen Mother to patrol, how can there be flower thieves!" β
He stared into the distance and vaguely saw that the other side of the lake was already full of people: "No, I have to go and see." β
After saying this, he bowed his hand to the crowd, and was about to confess his sins and leaveβ
"Uncle." Chu Yi said in a deep voice: "As you said, the two governments are heavily guarded, and it is easy to determine that no one will be able to sneak in, this matter is really strange, we are not outsiders, how can we sit idly by, we will go with you to take a look." β
When Prince Chu Xin heard this, he also stood up and looked at Xiao Jingzheng with concern on his face.
"Yes, uncle, this matter is related to the reputation of the ladies in the house, or we should go with you to be a witness."
Xiao Jing still had a hint of hesitation on his face.
After all, there were people on the other side of the lake shouting "flower thieves", and if he led them over, what if there was really ......
Chu Zhan saw his hesitation, and smiled casually: "Uncle doesn't need to worry, we just follow Uncle from a distance to watch, if that thief is really strong in martial arts, and he can't even control the secret guard, I and His Royal Highness King Yi are by the side, so I can have a foil." If the thief has been caught, I will come back quietly. β
"Rui Wang is right." The prince smiled warmly and said: "It's rare to come to the ancestral mansion today, and we encounter such a thing, if we do this and watch, if the queen mother learns about it in the future, I'm afraid she will blame me and the fourth brother for standing by." β
Speaking of this, Xiao Jingzheng couldn't shirk it anymore, and arched his hand: "Then there is Lao Chujun and the two princes." β
With that, he whispered and ordered someone to deliver the news to Mrs. Chengenhou and Mrs. Shizi.
Only then did he lead the three of them, take a group of servants who were waiting outside, and walk towards the inner courtyard of Muhua Garden.

In a rockery cave.
Xiao Qingchu heard a terrible cry in her ears and woke up faintly.
When she opened her eyes, she saw a fire outside the rockery, and thick smoke was pouring into the cave.
And the black shadow who had just kidnapped her also jumped and hurriedly left the cave......
"Cough, cough, cough......"
Xiao Qingchu choked on the thick smoke and coughed.
As soon as she came to her senses, she saw in the light of the fireβ
Not far from her, the two crooked-necked servants and the old woman, with their hands tied, were looking at her with wide eyes in horror......
