Before Xiao Qingchu could ask, the three people stumbled and opened their mouths.

"Ahem...... County, county lord, it's not what I'm calling, yes, cough...... It was the man in black who put the knife around my neck and told me to scream. ”

"He, he arrested us, and said let's be a witness, saying that he, he had something with you, and had a good thing, and I, we didn't see anything, the county lord."

"County, county lord, it must be Xiao Qingxue, this is definitely Xiao Qingxue's doing!"

Listening to them say these words incoherently, Xiao Qingchu immediately understood what was going on with the man in black and the fire outside at this moment.

"Xiao, Qing, Xue, I will never let you go!"

Xiao Qingchu gritted her teeth and said this, and found that she didn't know when, her dumb hole had been solved.

However, as if in response to her call-

Suddenly, Xiao Qingxue's voice came from outside the rockery: "Come on!" The county lord is here, I hear the county lord's voice, hurry! Come on! Someone will put out these fires! ”

As the voice fell, several more female voices shouted outside the cave:

"Ah, it turned out to be the county lord of Qingchu inside, quick! Come here! ”

"Come and save the county lord of Qingchu! Fast! ”

With their messy shouts and noisy footsteps, they rushed from afar.

At the same time, the voices came in from outside again—

"County Lord, if you hold on, we will rescue you."

"Yes, don't be afraid, the county lord, everyone has already rushed over, don't rush out in a hurry, so as not to hurt yourself."

The voices of these people sounded like they were anxiously asking for help and being kind to comfort them.

But Xiao Qingchu heard the schadenfreude in his voice.

She hated it so much that she bit the blood in her tooth sockets, and stood up against the wall, moving little by little towards the hole.

And the two servants and the old woman were so choked by the smoke that they couldn't speak, and they could only look at Xiao Qingchu with a blank eye, their eyes full of flattery and pleading.

Because of the rockery where they are located, it is very close to the lakeside.

The ladies who came to the inner courtyard of the two mansions hurried to the place where the fire had started, and the raging fire had been doused by the vigil wives.

Outside the rockery, Xiao Qingxue, who had been following everyone and even extinguishing the fire, was personally carrying a bucket to put out the fire, and when she saw that the fire was extinguished, she rushed to the entrance of the cave first.

"County Lord! Princess! You okay? She shouted into the cave with concern.

However, what responded to her was-

"Ahem...... Cough...... Cough...... You slut! ”

Xiao Qingchu came out of the cave with a choked cough, was extremely angry, rushed straight to Xiao Qingxue, slapped Xiao Qingxue hard, and threw it in Xiao Qingxue's face!

"Smack-"

The crisp slap sound made the noisy surroundings instantly become as silent as death.

Xiao Qingxue was beaten and staggered a few steps, until she was helped by the "maid" Shen Shu, and she could not stand up.

"Xiao Qingchu, are you crazy?" The county lord of Yunling said unceremoniously: "Qingxue was kind enough to save your life, you are so kind to take revenge?" ”

"Save?"

Xiao Qingchu looked at the county lord of Yunling, his face blackened by thick smoke was full of hatred: "Yunling, you must be playing ghosts, you ......"

"That's it!"

At this moment, a majestic female voice came from the back of the crowd.

The crowd fighting the fire flashed open a crack with the sound.

It's grandmother!

When Xiao Qingchu heard this voice, tears immediately welled up in her eyes.

She turned her head and was about to complain to her grandmother, but she was stunned to find that-

Behind the scattered servants, there were not only her grandmother, Duchess Cheng'en, Hua's and mother-in-law, Min's, but also Cheng'enhou's wife, Zou and Shizi's wife, Xu, and the wives of each room in the two mansions!

The ladies of the two mansions are almost all here!

The wife of the prince of Chengen, Min Shi, desperately glanced at Xiao Qingchu.

Seeing this battle, Xiao Qingchu's hand that had just thrown out his slap trembled slightly.

On weekdays, in front of the elders of the two provinces, she has always been knowledgeable, dignified and elegant.

Even in front of people, he has always whispered softly, and he has never even spoken heavy words to anyone.

Unexpectedly, today she was used by Xiao Qingxue and the Yunling County Lord in such a treacherous way to make her ruined!

"What the hell is going on?"

Chengenhou's wife Zou asked unhappily: "Qingchu, why did you slap your sister as soon as you came out of it?" Could it be that your sister did something wrong to save you? ”

Although the Zou family doesn't look down on the style of the small three rooms on weekdays, they have never treated them badly.

Now, Xiao Qingchu, the granddaughter of the princess, treats her granddaughter Xiao Qingxue like this in front of so many people, and she doesn't even take their Hou Mansion in her eyes!

She originally turned a blind eye, thinking that she wanted to keep her head down, and that's it.

But tonight—

Mrs. Zou knew that there were still those nobles on her back, so she would never let the girl of the Hou Mansion fall behind in front of outsiders.

Xiao Qingxue heard her grandmother speak for her for the first time in front of everyone, and her eyes immediately turned red with excitement.

She subconsciously wanted to rush to her grandmother Zou and beg her to make decisions for herself-

was dragged by the "maid" Shen Shu on the side, and grabbed her sleeves.

"Yikes! Girl, why are you so hot, do you have a fever? Shen Shu pinched her throat and exhaled at the right time.

These words made Xiao Qingxue immediately come back to her senses, and hurriedly cooperated.

When Xiao Qing on the side saw this, she was angry in her heart, and she was instantly picked higher again.

In this Xiao Mansion, she Xiao Qingchu is the ancestor who pretends to be weak and innocent, how can she tolerate Xiao Qingxue and other inferior goods, and pretend to be like this in front of her to trap her!

Seeing that Mrs. Cheng Enhou was aggressively waiting for her answer-

Xiao Qingchu couldn't care about anything, so he simply walked in front of the elders, knelt down directly, and said with a crying voice: "Please also ask the elders to make decisions for Qingchu, tonight it was Xiao Qingxue who colluded with a foreign man, broke into Qingchu's courtyard, kidnapped Qingchu into the cave, and set fire to this game."

She was acting coy outside again, making a saving appearance, this was all planned by her, Qing Chu was really angry before she started, please make decisions for Qing Chu! ”

Her voice was neither high nor low, enough for those around her to hear clearly.

And not just the servants and a few ladies present—

Even Xiao Jingzheng, King Yi, the crown prince and Chu Zhan in the pavilion who were hiding behind the flowers and trees not far away, could hear it very clearly.

The four people present in the pavilion were all human spirits, and when they heard this, they looked at each other, and their faces showed a little surprise.

"Xiao Qingchu, were you stupid by the flower thief?"

Outside the rockery, the county lord of Yunling opened his mouth unceremoniously: "The county lord is a guest in the Hou Mansion today, and he is bored after eating, so he and Qingxue came to this Muhua Garden for a walk and eat, first I heard that someone in your cave was shouting flower thief, we hurriedly rushed over, and saw a man setting fire everywhere, and then began to call for help to scare him away."

Or was Qingxue the first to find you in this cave, otherwise, you would have been burned to death by fire, or choked to death by smoke, how could you have survived to this moment? It's good for you, as soon as you come out, you will beat a rake, and rely on Qingxue for such filthy things. Tell me, why did Qingxue want to harm you? ”
