"Get up!" Jinan Ou waved his hand and said, "Can the prince be inside?" ”

"In!" There was a trace of doubt on the face of the guard who answered: "However, the prince seems to be crying?" "Crying? What kind of face does he have to cry about! When Jinye Hou heard this, he immediately snorted heavily, raised his feet and walked towards the courtyard.

The guards immediately took their positions and continued to stand guard.

The courtyard was quiet, unlit, and pitch black. Jin Yehou had already walked in, so he didn't bother to let the people outside come in and light the lamp, but fortunately, he was followed by an entourage with a lantern in his hand. With the faint light of the lantern, the two of them went into the depths of the courtyard and came to the upper room.

The room was lit with a lamp, and sure enough, as the guard had said, a faint cry came from inside the door.

"What does a big man look like like a girl?" In his early years, he guarded the border and fought hundreds of battles, and he saw all good men with iron bones, but he never thought that his son was a soft bone and did such a despicable thing. Dare to hide here and cry?

He really wanted to rush in and smoke him with big ears and melon seeds!

"Master Hou, go in and take a look, don't you know?" The guards on the side persuaded.

"Yes." Kazuha nodded, raised his foot and kicked the door open.

"Minions see Master Hou!" There were two small servants in the hall guarding here, and when they saw Jinye waiting to kick in the door, everyone was taken aback, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to ask for leaves.

Since most of the people around Gu Xiaoye died in Qingyun Mountain last time, Jinye Hou has not added manpower to his courtyard, and later Gu Xiaoye has repeatedly made mistakes. It's always guarded, and you don't need so many little guys.

At this moment, Jin Ye looked at the two little guys who invited him to leaves, and his face was very complicated. After a while, he asked lightly, "Is the prince inside?" ”

"Yes, yes!" The two little guys hurriedly agreed.

"Get up!" Jin Ye Hou said lightly, raised his feet and walked into the house, and after passing the hall, he heard the cry coming from the east room, so he walked over and pushed the door open.

The table in the room was full of food, but it was already cold. Gu Xiaoye was lying on the table crying, and when he heard the sound of pushing the door, he raised his head, revealing half of his red and swollen face like a pig's head.

Jin Yehou immediately gasped, this, this is Xi'er's hand? That's too ruthless, isn't it?

"Daddy! You're here! Gu Xiaoye saw that Jinye Hou had come in, and he unexpectedly wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Jinye Hou to ask for leaves.

"Sit down!" Jinye Hou waved his hand. Road.

"Thank you, Dad." Gu Xiaoye said, and then stood up from the chair.

The atmosphere froze for a moment.

Jin Ye Hou remembered that he came over today, and he was about to question Gu Xiaoye, but looking at his son's appearance, he couldn't swallow his words when they came to his mouth.

"Dad, you're surprised by the wound on my face, aren't you? This is my sister's own hand. A smile split into the corner of Gu Xiaoye's mouth and said.

"I know this, Xi'er told me!" As soon as someone started, Jin Ye Hou opened the conversation, he frowned and glanced at Gu Xiaoye, and said suspiciously: "However, your face ......"

"She's right! Everybody saw it. Gu Xiaoye said lightly.

"No, I was trying to ask, did you slap yourself again according to that mark because you wanted me to punish your sister?" Jin Yehou groaned: "It's so hard, it's not like a woman's hand!" What woman has so much strength? What's more, Xi'er is still sick! He said. He shook his head, glanced at Gu Xiaoye with hatred, and said, "It's a shame that your sister is still interceding for you!" I didn't expect you to do anything in order to slander her! ”

Gu Xiaoye never expected that Jinye Hou would doubt himself so much, he was stuck in his throat in one breath and couldn't go up or down, his face was flushed, and his cough was earth-shattering.

The little guy on the side hurriedly poured a cup of tea and handed it over, patting Gu Xiaoye's back a few times before he calmed down.

"Dad, I didn't lie to you, after my little sister slapped me, Amber next to her also slapped me." Gu Xiaoye's face was full of grief and indignation: "If you don't believe it, you can ask your sister again to see if she can refute it?" "Blood in the groove.

When Jinye Hou heard this, he was a little surprised: "You mean, the maid next to Xi'er beat you?" ”

Gu Xiaoye nodded.

"Then you must have done something you shouldn't have done to her off." Jin Ye Hou thought for a while.

Gu Xiaoye stumbled and almost stood unsteadily.

After a long time, he smiled bitterly and said: "Dad, you are right, this matter is all my fault, I shouldn't have seen Miss Ren's beauty, so I admired it." ”

"You're really not worthy of someone." When Jinye Hou heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "You have this bit of self-knowledge, it seems that you are indeed repentant." ”

When Gu Xiaoye heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he glanced at Jinye in disbelief.

Suddenly he smiled.

Really? How noble is that Miss Ren's identity, is he really not worthy?

He doesn't believe in this evil anymore!

"This time, for the sake of your injuries not being healed, I won't beat you." Jin Ye Hou glanced at him and said solemnly: "It's just that if you ask to marry Miss Ren, you will never mention it in the future, and you can't have such an idea!" In a few days, my father will ask someone to set a family business for you. ”

"Why?" When Gu Xiaoye heard this, he couldn't help despairing, he raised his head and looked at Jinye fixedly.

This is his father, but in his eyes, he has never looked up to his son!

"You have a bad character, and you don't deserve others." brocade

Ye Hou said lightly.

These words were like a sharp bayonet, which pierced Gu Xiaoye's heart at once.

But it hurts, but there is a trace of stubbornness in his heart.

Don't you all want me to contaminate that Miss Ren? I'm just thinking about it!

A mocking smile immediately appeared on the corner of Gu Xiaoye's mouth.

When Jinye Hou saw it, he thought he was laughing at himself, and said in a deep voice: "Since you are not allowed to go out without permission this time, this time, I will punish you for not going out for three months!" Hello for yourself! With that, he turned and walked out of the house.

"Dad, go slowly." Gu Xiaoye said slowly, but the expression on his face was unpredictable.

It's a pity that Jinye Hou can't see it with his back to him, otherwise, when he sees his son's unbeaten expression, he might rush in and beat him again.

When he got out of the courtyard and came outside, Jinye Hou instructed the leader of the guards: "You give me a good life to guard this place carefully, if something happens to let him escape again, you are the only one who asks!" ”

"Yes! Master Hou! The subordinates will guard this place carefully and never let the prince escape! When the guard heard this, his expression immediately froze.

Jinye Hou nodded, and then turned to leave.

Ren Mansion.

As soon as he returned to the house, Yuxiang left Ren Jiaying and went to Mrs. Ren's yard, crying and telling today's events one by one. At the end, he added oil and vinegar and said: "Madam, the slave maid has been persuading the young lady to come back quickly, but in order to make the young lady happy, the second young lady of the ancient family actually took a chair for our eldest son, and as soon as the young lady was happy, she no longer cared about this matter, and said that she would meet the second young lady of the ancient family in the future!" ”

This is not the case at all, but Yuxiang omitted the most important part, and with such a plausible improvisation, things immediately turned sour.

When Old Madam Ren heard this, her face changed suddenly, and the blue tendons on her forehead exploded: "Then according to this, that Second Miss Gu and her brother are in the same group?" ”

When Yu Xiang heard this, she couldn't help but shrink a little, many people saw this matter, and she couldn't lie, so she had to say: "That's not it, when that Gu Shizi spoke too much, the second miss Gu once rushed up and gave him a hard slap, and the face of the prince was swollen!" ”

"Is there such a thing?" When Mrs. Ren heard this, she opened her mouth in surprise.

Yu Xiang had a ghost fetus in her heart, and hurriedly explained: "Actually, it's nothing, the maid next to her also slapped Gu Shizi!" Come to think of it, this prince's status in the Hou Mansion is not high, and everyone can beat him. ”

"You!" Mrs. Ren has lived for half her life, and she has never heard of a concubine in the Hou Mansion who inherits the title and family property with such a low status, and she is not even as good as a woman, which is simply ridiculous!

"If that ancient prince is really of low status, he will not be favored by the marquis,

Then how could he be made a son? Old Madam Ren frowned and said, "But this second Miss Gu not only beat her brother, but also connived at the maids around her, which is also a person who doesn't understand the rules!" ”

"Grandmother! Miss Gu Er was only angry with her granddaughter, so she beat her brother, there is a reason for it, and grandmother can't deny her because of this incident! Immediately, a clear voice sounded outside the door, followed by Ren Jiaying walked in from outside, followed by Ren Taishi.

As soon as Yuxiang saw Master Ren, his face immediately changed.

"You girl, you don't invite Ye when you come in, it's so unruly! This is what the second lady of the Gu family infected, right? When Mrs. Ren saw Ren Jiaying openly refute herself, her face immediately changed.

"Ying'er asked her grandmother for leaves. There was a reason for the incident just now, and I asked my grandmother to forgive me. In the face of Mrs. Ren's anger, Ren Jiaying's face was very calm, she ignored the ridicule in Mrs. Ren's words, and bent down to give her a leaf in a dignified manner.

Taishi Ren on the side immediately frowned, he waved his hand, and said, "Okay!" Don't talk about the rules! The second lady of the Gu family has a good temperament, and she is also sincere to Ying'er, so you don't have to say a word. ”

"You know to protect her!" When Mrs. Ren saw her husband enter the door, although her face softened, her anger did not subside.

Taishi Ren raised his eyes and glanced at her, and said lightly: "What happened to me, Ying'er has already told me everything." As he spoke, he lowered his eyes and glanced at Yu Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground, and said indifferently: "Then how did you state it to Mrs. just now, now, say it again in front of me!" ”

Although the voice was faint, it exuded an aura of not being angry and arrogant.

Yuxiang was already scared silly. What she said to Mrs. Ren just now added a lot of fuel and vinegar, but now, in the face of Mrs. Ren, she didn't dare to say a word.

"Since that's the case, then Yuxiang. You'll say it again! "Mrs. Ren still trusts this maid who grew up by her side since she was a child, and was later sent to her granddaughter's room.

"Madam, slave maid ......" Yu Xiang bit his lip tightly, but in his heart, heaven and man were at war.

What is she going to say? Do you say what you just said, or tell the truth?

To be honest, she can pass this level in front of Master Ren, but she will be disgusted by Mrs. Ren.

Vice versa.

"Yuxiang! What happened to you? Why don't you speak? Seeing that Yuxiang only opened her mouth to say four words, Mrs. Ren couldn't help but ask: "Just tell the master, how the second lady of the Gu family coaxed Ying'er and let her be bullied by the son of the Gu family!" ”

"Humph! Did this girl just say that? When Taishi Ren heard this, his face immediately changed.

When Mrs. Ren saw his angry face, she couldn't help but be taken aback: "Master, what's wrong with you?" ”

"What's wrong with me? You ask

This girl! What a big lie she told! Taishi Ren shouted angrily, turned around and ordered: "Wu Gang, slap your mouth!" ”

"Yes! Master! "Wu Gang, who was with Ren Taishi. immediately stepped forward and gave Yuxiang a big mouth, hitting her with a stumbling blow and falling directly to the ground.

"Sir! What are you doing here? When Mrs. Ren saw this scene, she couldn't help but be shocked and angry, and hurriedly shouted: "Shut up!" ”

But Wu Gang obviously only listened to the Taishi, and was indifferent when he heard this, and shook Yuxiang with a big mouth.

"Yuxiang, can you speak now? You don't open your mouth. I'll beat you until you speak!" Old Lady Ren said in a cool tone. He is the most authoritative figure in the Ren family, and most people are afraid of him, and no one dares to lie in front of him.

Those who lied were eventually kicked out of the house.

These Yuxiang all know. She knelt there, there was a slap mark on each cheek, and the corners of her mouth were dripping blood, but her heart was even more bitter, she regretted it very much, when she was in the Kazuba Waiting House, Miss told her that she would tell the old man about these things when she came back, but she didn't believe it, and came to Mrs. Here to add oil and vinegar, now it's okay, Miss brought Ren Taishi over, what should she do now? ”

In desperation, she turned her head to look at Ren Jiaying. I hope she can look at the past and ask for a favor for herself.

But Ren Jiaying's friendship with her has long been exhausted by her arrogance, especially today, when she heard Yuxiang slander Gu Ruoxi so much in front of Old Madam Ren. I won't say an extra word for her.

"The old man asked you, what are you looking at Ying'er for?" Taishi Ren said angrily: "The old man hates flamboyant tongues and two-faced minions the most, today, if you don't make things clear, then you can go out of the house!" Don't stay in the Hou Mansion in the future! "Brother Guang of intestines.

"Master Taishi! The slave said! At this moment, Yuxiang really felt a little like a dead heart, and nodded busily when he heard the words, and then started from the beginning: "The slave accompanied the young lady to the Jinye Houfu, and as soon as she got off the carriage, she met the son of the ancient family, and he came out in a hurry, and almost collided with the young lady, and later. It was Amber, the maid beside Miss Gu Er, who rushed out in a hurry and separated Gu Shizi from Miss Gu Shizi......"

"Huh? Didn't you just say that it was you who rushed up to stop the Gu family? Old Madam Ren's eyes immediately widened.

Yuxiang didn't dare to look at her face. lowered his head and said: "Back to the old lady's words, Yuxiang was confused just now......"

"Presumptuous!" When Old Madam Ren heard this, she burst out in anger.

But at this time, Ren Jiaying suddenly said with a flat face: "Grandmother, go on!" This girl still has a lot of things to say! ”

When Mrs. Ren heard this, she turned her head and glanced at Ren Jiaying, who had a calm face, and said lightly: "That's it, let's talk about it!" This girl's words sound noisy

Heart. ”

"Nope! Let this girl speak! Master Ren frowned and said, "I want to hear what she just said!" ”

Seeing that her husband was so angry, Mrs. Ren's eyes flashed at the moment, and she finally didn't say anything more.

When Yuxiang saw this scene, she almost cried, she glanced at Ren Jiaying again, but saw that her expression was calm, and she didn't look at herself at all.

Yu Xiang's heart trembled. She suddenly understood that what she had done in the past had touched the bottom line of this young lady, and now she wished that she would be punished by Mrs. Ren, and it was best to get rid of her.

Thinking of this, Yuxiang's heart suddenly surged up with a burst of regret, I knew that today, she would obediently be a maid next to the eldest lady, what do you do with those moths?

"Yuxiang! What do you do coldly? I'm waiting for you to reply! Seeing that Yuxiang had not spoken, Mrs. Ren was annoyed at the moment.

"Back to the old lady, the slave will say it!" Yu Xiang lay on the ground and kowtowed to the two people in the upper seat, and finally gritted her teeth and told the next thing one by one, this time, she did not add oil and vinegar, nor did she deliberately say it very ambiguously.

The more Mrs. Ren listened, the more surprised she became, her mouth opened wide, she didn't expect that the same thing, said by a person's mouth, would have such a different effect!

"Madam, are these words the same as what I just told you?" Only then did Taishi Ren turn his attention to his old wife.

"That's the same as what Ying'er said?" Mrs. Ren didn't answer the rhetorical question.

Old lady Ren immediately nodded and said, "Yes, that's what Ying'er told me." ”

If it was different, he would naturally order someone to palm Yuxiang's mouth.

Old Madam Ren naturally understood this, she turned her head, and glanced at Yuxiang, who was trembling and kneeling on the ground, but did not speak.
