"I have the hope of Emperor Taizu! Outsiders can only see that our scenery is infinite, and its realization is that there are already brothers in the Lu clan and there are constant disputes, and now is the most dangerous time! I'm getting old and old, how can I withstand these storms? I truly treat you as my daughter-in-law and feel at ease with you, so I hope you can stay for this family. ”

When Marquis Huaiyong fought for Emperor Taizu, he was also exhausted, and he had a lot of bones behind him, so he had today's fame and status, and it was inevitable that he would be afraid. Entrusting such an important matter to her as an outsider is really not in line with Lu Tongyi's past style.

Shuying knew that Lu Tongyi was also very jealous of her.

It's just that time has changed, and Lu Tongqi has new considerations. Lu Cheng is dead, instead of reuniting Xie Sheng and Xie Shuying's father and daughter, and exposing those old things that can't see the light, it is better to take a step back: if he keeps them safe, she will be the chaste archway of the Huaiyong Hou and the Yiqing sword of the Anding clan, and both sides can live in peace.

On the surface, it sounds good, but at the bottom is the transaction. But only in this way can she gain a foothold in the Hou Mansion and have a chance to get close to the truth.

The little girl understood. When there was a problem in the family, Hou Ye protected the little girl, and the little girl remembered it. I will stay in the Hou Mansion for three years, and I will abide by my duty and return the innocence and fairness of the Lu clan. I implore the Hou Ye to take care of my father and the Shen Tu family, the little girl is grateful and repays her life and death! ”

"I'm going to work hard for you! Anyone will tell you everything you want to know in the future. Lu Tongyi walked to the shade of the pavilion, leaned over and folded a budding lotus flower, and handed it to Shuying.

"Picking lotus in Nantang autumn, lotus flowers are over people's heads. Bow your head and get lotus seeds, lotus seeds are as green as water. In the sleeve of the lotus, the lotus heart is completely red. Remembering Lang Lang is not coming, looking up at Feihong ......"

-

The Hou Mansion was built in a valley, and it was rare for anyone in it to feel unbearable heat. Coupled with doing white things, it is a little more slaughtering. The night was cooler than the day, but the mountain breeze was still full of heat, which was the phenology of midsummer.

At night, it was a shadow vigil again. As the drowsiness crept in, Bangzi struck three times loudly and sharply, shaking her awake. originally told her that someone would come to replace her on the third watch, and she could go back to the room to rest, but after an hour, no one came.

Shuying gave An Yue, who was muttering, a look, and An Yue was immediately silent.

She got up from the circle chair and paced back and forth in the empty hall, feeling the cool feeling creeping up from her fingertips to her heart in order to relax her muscles and bones that had been tense for a day. It was another Qixi Festival, a festival that should be full of lights and laughter, but it was washed silent by the sudden funeral......

A dark shadow suddenly appeared outside the door, and Shuying was so frightened that she tightened her cuffs, trying to hide the shiver caused by the nervousness. When the shadow slowly approached, she saw that it was a tall man, dressed in white, and his eyes were as cold as a pool.

"You ......"

Maybe it was stimulated, her heart beat violently, she knew that this was Lu Qi, the concubine of Huaiyong Hou, but she was stunned for a while, and she didn't know how to call it.

"I beg your pardon for being offended. If you know the times, girl, you should get out of this place as soon as possible! Lu Qi didn't advance or retreat, looked at her and said coldly, "My brother hasn't blinked his eyes yet, if the girl doesn't have other plans, she doesn't have to come to the Hou Mansion to offer her courtesy." Am I right? ”

"Something else?"

She inquired with the people in the house, and the first person who noticed Lu Cheng was Lu Qi. This made her have to wonder about the motives of this concubine.

Moreover, he also seemed to sense that her purpose of coming to the Huaiyong Marquis Mansion was not pure, so he would threaten her like this.

"Houmen is like the sea, and people's hearts are unpredictable, I'm afraid that Mr. Suiyun, you will not be able to stay out of the matter, right? Since I am already a member of the Hou Mansion, we will see each other in the future, and you don't have to deliberately make things difficult for me, which is not good for you and me. ”

Shuying's voice was slightly choked, half of which was panicked because of being exposed, and half of it was wronged by preaching.

She didn't want to be courteous to anyone at all, and she didn't want to be entangled with the rules and regulations of the Lu family, so why should he teach her?

As for remarrying this person, it seems impossible now.

"Also, in terms of name, I am your sister-in-law, please be more respectful to me."

Lu Qi was noncommittal, and turned sideways to face the spirit position, not even looking at her much.

After saying goodbye, he walked out of the mourning hall, a cool breeze came to his face, Shuying suddenly remembered that he had been busy in the past two days, and he had not taken a closer look at the Huaiyong Marquis Mansion, so he said to An Yue that he would take advantage of the cool night to walk outside. An Yue left the lantern for her and went back to the courtyard first.

Lu Qi listened to her footsteps and couldn't help laughing, walked to the spiritual seat and lit three sticks of incense.

Another cool breeze blew, and a sturdy guy wearing black clothes and white scarves walked in, "Childe, do you want to go with me?" ”

He knelt down and stood up, his hands behind his back were silent for a moment, and the light that had just flashed under his eyes dimmed. In a deep voice, he replied, "Go." ”

The little servant was ordered to leave, and the white disappeared into the night, and walked quickly in the direction where Shuying had left.

Shuying walked to a fork in the road, and suddenly heard the sound of a bubbling stream, so she continued to follow the sound to the stream. Listening to the gurgling water, my mood is also much soothed.

Suddenly, a footstep exposed by stepping on a branch and leaf caught her guard.

"Who is it!?"

No one answered.

She didn't dare to step forward, so she could only turn back in place, the man was hidden in the dark shadow, and he couldn't see his figure and face clearly.

A bright sword flash flashed, and in the fright, Shuying quickly hid behind a large rock, blew out the light, and waited for the man's next move.

The scene of the day of the raid swirled in my mind, and then I felt that the stream passed through my mind, and the rest was blank.

The jade bracelet on the wrist slammed into the stone, and there was a "ding" sound, which shook the ear drums. The original owner of this bracelet was Mrs. Xu. Mrs. Xu had been wearing this jade bracelet before, and when Shuying was leaving, she gave it to her as a memory.

It is said that jade can ward off disasters for the Lord. I don't know if this time, it also blocked a disaster for Xie Shuying.

She had a plan in mind, and when the man approached, she grabbed a handful of dirt and threw it over, fascinating his eyes.

It seemed like a long time had passed, and the man never came down to check.

She repeatedly confirmed that there was no movement around her except for the sound of water and insects, and then slowly stood up and looked around, and the boulder in her throat fell back into her heart. She bit her lip hard to keep herself awake and quickly ran back to her lodgings.

I didn't expect that the Hou Mansion, which was orderly during the day, would have such a mess at night. Fortunately, I picked up a life today, and I can't take it lightly next time......

Two days of hard work and fright made her fall into bed tired, coupled with last night's cold meal, the already weak shadow was infected with the wind cold.

I felt dizzy, and I didn't know how long I had slept, and when I woke up, Liluo was waiting by the bed.

Liluo said that it was time for the girl to go to the spirit to fulfill her filial piety, but the second grandmother learned that she was sick and let her rest for a few days.

Shu Ying let out a long sigh. After a few days, the people here will probably forget about her completely.

Liluo was a little apprehensive, "Sister An Yue is decocting medicine for the girl, I'll help her keep an eye on it, so that she can rest for a while." ”

Shuying pressed Liluo's hand and stared straight at the pair of deer eyes, "Your mother has been busy in the house these days, right?" Didn't you see it? ”

Liluo's eyes immediately turned red and she nodded twice.

"That'...... When I get better, you will go back to the second room to serve, and you can still be with your mother every day. I can't be lively here, and I'll suffer if you follow me. ”

"Nope! I'm not going! The girl didn't know that my mother was not bullied by the second grandmother in the second room...... I am also often bullied by Sister Peach, and there is no place for me in the second room! ”

Pear burst into tears, her voice was a little hoarse, and she still held Shuying's hand tightly, "When the girl didn't come yet, my mother told me that Miss Ruoying was a good person, so don't go back to the second room...... I don't want to go back! ”

Shuying remembered the various performances of this little girl in the past two days, and finally knew what was wrong.

After brushing the sleeve of the pear fall, the arm was actually full of bruises and scars, as if there were stains on a thin white lotus root. The picture is dazzling and terrifying.
