Chapter 219: You're the Alone
"Little girl, you have to be calm." The land lord seemed to have a premonition and hurriedly dissuaded him.
Mingyuexi resolutely refused: "What the Seventh Princess did, I can't bear it anymore, and I won't retreat anymore!" ”
This made the land lord a little embarrassed, and when he was struggling with how to deal with this matter, the door was suddenly pushed open. I saw Zhu Bajie walking in from outside the house, and said in an anxious tone: "Xiaoxi, I know you are very angry, but the other party is a princess." If something happens to the Seventh Princess now, the first person to be suspected is you! ”
"So what? The seventh princess has done so many things wrong, is it natural that she should be because she is a princess? No matter what the result is, I must avenge this revenge! Under the dark apricot eyes of Mingyue Creek, there was a burning rage.
In fact, she knew that Zhu Bajie was kind enough to persuade herself, but she had tolerated it again and again, but the final result was that Caiyun lost her child. You see, there is a limit to human patience.
Zhu Bajie could see that Mingyuexi hated the Seventh Princess, even if he said more, it would be useless.
The two sides fell into a stalemate, and in the end, Mingyuexi did not choose to compromise, and the two broke up unhappily.
Dark clouds blanketed the sky so dark that it almost overwhelmed people.
The bean-sized rain fell to the ground and quickly soaked everything around.
Mingyuexi put away the oil-paper umbrella and handed it to Chunhua's hands, while the family of Zhang's mansion led her in.
Lin Caiyun had an accident that day, and not long after Mingyuexi and Zhu Bajie separated, Gu Yanbai came to Zhang's Mansion to pick her up. For this reason, Mingyuexi returned to live in the Xiaoyao Hou Mansion, and came to visit Lin Caiyun whenever he had time.
Mingyuexi walked into Lin Caiyun's house, and what caught her eye was Zhang Wusheng's desolate figure. She crossed her expression with a touch of sadness, and then walked behind Zhang Wusheng with steps, and said with guilt: "I'm sorry about Caiyun's matter!" "She came a few times before, and Zhang Wusheng happened to be out and was not there.
Hearing Mingyuexi's voice, Zhang Wusheng's movements paused slightly, and he quickly regained his composure, and said softly: "Caiyun has been in a bad mood these days, don't mention this matter in front of her for the time being." ”
After staying for a while, Zhang Wusheng left behind, leaving Mingyuexi alone.
Zhang Wusheng walked out of the house, walked directly to the study, pushed the door and entered.
His subordinates had been waiting here for a long time, and when they saw him coming, they immediately saluted: "My subordinates are here to join the master." ”
Zhang Wusheng sat down and asked with a gloomy face, "How is the matter investigated?" ”
"The subordinates have ascertained that this matter was committed by the Seventh Princess, and no evidence has been found yet. However, the subordinates also found out that the seventh princess and the second prince often contacted privately, and the second prince may also be involved in this matter. "The subordinates told the truth.
The next moment, there was a loud bang, and Zhang Wusheng's fist slammed on the table, and the hatred in his eyes almost poured out. As long as he thinks of Caiyun's self-blame for the loss of his child, his heart is like a knife. Similarly, he didn't expect that even the second prince would be involved in this matter. If it was true, he would definitely not let the two go.
"Check! Don't let go of any clues! Zhang Wusheng ordered.
Mingyuexi guarded Lin Caiyun for a while, and after she woke up, the two talked about it, and she left to go back to the Hou Mansion.
On the way back, the heavy rain had turned into a drizzle. Due to the slippery road in rainy days, the carriage traveled for a long time before it arrived at the Hou Mansion.
As soon as Mingyuexi got off the carriage, the people walked into the Hou Mansion. But before he could take two steps, he was suddenly stopped.
I saw Cheng Yu walk out and said, "Young lady, the master asked you to go to the study." ”
Normally, Gu Yanbai would not call himself to his study, but today he called himself away, I don't know what happened.
Although Mingyuexi had doubts, she still followed Cheng Yu to the study.
As soon as she entered the study, Mingyuexi was surprised to see Xu Mubai sitting there.
After all, I hadn't seen him in days. Even on the day of her wedding to Gu Yanbai, he never came. Gu Yanbai called her to the study, could it be because of him?
Just when Mingyuexi was puzzled, Xu Mubai took the initiative to say hello: "Long time no see, is Young Mrs. Gu okay?" ”
"Everything's fine." Mingyuexi found a place to sit down, and asked, "I wonder why Xu Gongzi suddenly came?" ”
Faced with her question, Gu Yanbai took the conversation over and explained the reason.
Not long ago, Xu Mubai successfully entered the office through the relationship of relatives. coincided with the instability of the border pass, he was familiar with the art of war, and as a military advisor, he followed the general to the Northern Expedition, so he missed the wedding of Gu Yanbai and Mingyuexi. Now that he has returned to the dynasty victoriously, he has specially sent congratulatory gifts and blessings.
In this way, Mingyuexi remembered that when she passed by the main hall just now, there were a lot of things placed there.
"Gongzi Xu is polite." Mingyuexi responded politely.
Xu Mubai waved his hand: "You're welcome, it should be so." Then the conversation suddenly changed, "But the main reason for coming here today is to inquire about the assassination of the second prince before." ”
It turned out that after Xu Mubai returned to the court, he heard about Mingyuexi and Gu Yanbai somewhat, and he couldn't help but be a little worried, so he specially came to inquire about the situation. And Gu Yanbai asked Mingyuexi to come over for this matter.
Today is different from the past, Xu Mubai has made great contributions this time, and the emperor admires him a lot, and heard that he will be promoted to a knighthood. If there is Xu Mubai's help, it can be said to be like a tiger with wings.
After that, the three of them discussed the matter seriously in the study.
At present, it seems that Xu Mubai has contacts with many people in the army, and he can use this line to ask for some clues from the imperial guards. As for Gu Yanbai, he was not idle here, he was ready to use all his forces to secretly suppress the power of the concubine's mother's family, so as to make sufficient preparations for future actions.
On this day, Gu Yanbai went out to run errands as usual. However, as soon as he left the house, he was suddenly stopped by someone.
I saw the seventh princess rushing towards him, and shouted happily: "Yanbai, I'm here to visit you!" ”
Seeing that the seventh princess was about to grab Gu Yanbai's sleeve, and Gu Yanbai's figure flashed, which directly made her pounce.
"Yanbai, don't you want me? As soon as I left the palace, I came to look for you, and I saw that I also brought you some snacks from the palace, which were all made by the imperial chef that my father specially found from Jiangnan. The seventh princess was not angry, and while fiddling with the basket in her hand, she walked towards Gu Yanbai without giving up.
Gu Yan's face was white and calm, and he refused coldly: "Seventh princess, please respect yourself, this marquis already has a wife." As for the dim sum made by the Jiangnan Imperial Chef, I am not blessed. ”
Dropping these words, Gu Yanbai bypassed the Seventh Princess and tried to leave. didn't take a few steps, the seventh princess took the opportunity to hold his sleeve and said with a smile: "Yanbai, even if you reject me and marry someone else, you are the only one in my heart." ”
