Chapter 101: Waiting to collect the corpse
Since she knew that Xiao Jinli had secretly entered the palace, she had been waiting here, Jiang Ruxue at this time did not have much extravagance, she only hoped that Xiao Jinli could return safely. Even if...... When he returned, he was beaten and punished...... Just come back.
The right eyelid that was beating faster and faster, and the "bang" sound in his heart that was becoming more and more flustered all made Jiang Ruxue sit still.
Finally, a black-topped carriage drove quickly and far away, stopping in front of the mansion, Jiang Ruxue's eyes were instantly full of hopeful light, and she greeted it desperately.
But when he saw Xiao Qingping get out of the carriage, his face changed instantly: "Old ...... Master. ”
Holding his stomach in the palace, Xiao Qingping was so angry that when he saw Jiang Ruxue, his face immediately darkened.
"Didn't you ground? What is it doing here? Xiao Qingping asked in a deep voice.
"Concubine, please say hello to the master." Jiang Ruxue saluted and looked at the carriage behind Xiao Qingping, hoping that Xiao Jinli would get off the carriage.
"What are you doing here?" Xiao Qingping was obviously impatient.
"Master, have you ever seen Li'er in the palace?" Jiang Ruxue bit her lip and asked cautiously.
"You still have the face to ask?!" Xiao Qingping couldn't contain his anger, and vented to Jiang Ruxue: "They are all good daughters you taught!" At today's palace banquet, my dignified prime minister can barely raise his head! ”
Jiang Ruxue's face gradually turned pale, and her lips trembled: "Master...... Li'er she ...... What's wrong with Li'er? ”
Xiao Qingping glanced at Jiang Ruxue fiercely, and flicked his sleeves: "She can't come back!" Wait for her body to be collected! ”
After speaking, Xiao Qingping didn't care about the crumbling Jiang Ruxue, turned around and entered the mansion.
Jiang Ruxue only felt that her eyes were dark, her eyebrows were dizzy, and she squatted down, so it was easy not to let herself faint.
"Auntie, is this uncomfortable?"
Hearing the voice, Jiang Ruxue looked up and saw that it was Steward Liu, who had gone out of the house to buy, and her heart moved: "Steward Liu, do you want to find out what happened at the palace banquet, and, Li'er...... What the hell happened to Li'er? ”
Steward Liu is a serious henchman who was picked up by Jiang Ruxue after managing the inner courtyard.
Hearing this, Steward Liu's expression was also solemn: "Auntie, don't worry too much, I'll go and inquire." ”
Steward Liu asked the little servant to lead the horse into the house by himself, and as soon as he turned around, he trotted away.
A mere butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion can't enter the palace, and there is no channel to know any dignitaries, but the housekeepers in the various officials' mansions naturally have their own social circles, and it is not difficult to inquire.
Looking at the back of Steward Liu leaving in a hurry, Jiang Ruxue couldn't settle down in her heart.
What did Xiao Qingping say...... Why can't Li'er come back...... Waiting for the body to be collected......
Thinking of this, Jiang Ruxue's tears fell down in a hurry.
Xiao Qingping, who entered the main hall all the way, glanced at his study when he passed by, hesitated for a moment, and did not go in, but walked towards Tian Huiyun's courtyard.
Tian Huiyun, who had just finished calculating the various expenses for food and clothing in the Prime Minister's Mansion in the past few days, sat in the warm pavilion, leaned on the chair and stretched his waist, and when he was extremely relaxed, he felt a pair of big hands on his shoulders.
Tian Huiyun was naturally startled, turned his head to see that it was Xiao Qingping, and hurriedly got up: "Master, when did you come back?" I don't know where those dead girls go to hide and don't report it? ”
Xiao Qingping saw that Tian Huiyun's cheeks were crimson, and the dark clouds in his heart seemed to have only dispersed a little bit, and his tone had a hint of a smile: "I told them not to report." ”
