The other person held a stick and raised it high, looking like it was about to be smashed into Du Qingyu's tender little hand.

"Stop!"

Suddenly, a woman's coquettish voice came from the direction of the entrance of the main hall.

The eunuch who executed was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly glanced at the third eldest princess who was frowning at the door, and slowly put down the stick in his hand.

The onlookers dispersed, only to see a seventeen or eighteen-year-old dressed lady with a clever smile walking around, but it was another niece of the Queen Mother, the late Miss Shen Weiyun.

The second eldest princess at the top showed a slightly relieved smile, but the third eldest princess stared at Shen Weiyun with an unhappy face, as for Shen Manzhu, she looked at her cousin Shen Weiyun with resentment in her eyes as if she had been quenched with poison.

Shen Weiyun stepped forward, and greeted the two eldest princesses with a respectful and cordial attitude.

"Why are you here?" The third eldest princess asked in an unkind tone.

Shen Weiyun was not afraid of the coldness of the third eldest princess at all, she smiled kindly and explained to the third eldest princess that she came late because there was something wrong on the road.

"Huh!" Shen Manzhu on the side sneered coldly twice, and said, "I don't know what the little change in my sister's mouth is, it is even more important than the peony banquet of the third eldest princess!" ”

For Shen Manzhu's obvious provocative words, Shen Weiyun didn't care at all, she smiled at Shen Manzhu tolerantly, and casually explained, "It's just some trivial things that are not enough to worry about." Then, she turned her gaze to Du Qingyu, who was still being held by the eunuch, and said with a surprised face: "Isn't this Miss Du Er of the Wenguo Mansion, this, what's wrong?" How do you get pressed ......?"

……

On an island in the lake.

Two young guards pushed a tall man to his knees.

A guard in his thirties raised his head and kicked the tall man's heart fiercely, and asked, "Say!" How did you get in! And what purpose! ”

The tall man's eyes drooped slightly, but he remained silent all the time.

"His grandmother's ......" The thirty-year-old guard was angry, swearing and swearing, while tugging at the tall man's collar with his left hand, clenching his right hand into a fist, and slamming the tall man's chest several times.

"Poof!" The tall man was beaten and spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"Oops......" A few women's exclamations sounded not far away.

The head of the guard looked at the young ladies who were blocked by the maid on the side, his heart was worried and angry, his eyes flashed several times, and he had some plans in his heart.

"Your Excellency!" A guard hurried over and said, "My subordinates have not found any other suspicious people. ”

"My lord! No other suspicious persons were found by his subordinates. Another guard came from the opposite direction and bowed to the head of the guard as well.

The head of the guard listened to the advice of his subordinates, and his heart was relieved at the moment.

No other thieves were found......

I didn't find out that the noble lady was involved......

Then, there is a possibility that this matter will be turned into a big thing and a small thing!

The head of the guard straightened his sleeves, lowered his eyes and turned to salute the direction of several young ladies, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, at the moment, I am afraid that this thief who has mixed in has something to do with the unconscious little maid...... This led them down for interrogation......"

"Slow," Miss Guangliu of the Zhongyi Bofu motioned to the maid who was blocking her to get out of the way, she took two steps forward, looked at the head of the guard, with an uneasy look on her face, and said, "This unconscious maid must be next to the young lady who came to participate in the peony banquet, and now she is not serving by the master's side and is unconscious, this ...... In case, the young lady was also poisoned by thieves...... What if you are knocked unconscious and hiding in some hidden place...... Have you searched the island carefully...... The young ladies who participated in the peony banquet today are all people with status, in case there are three long and two short, can you afford it......"

"This ......" The head of the guard was very ugly when he was scolded by Miss Guangliu one by one, he understood that the identities of the young ladies in Lujiuyuan today were not simple, so he wanted to conclude today's incident as a matter of a thief and a little maid on the bright side...... It's not that the head of the guard doesn't want to find out what happened today, he just thinks that the man has been caught anyway, and as long as he is there, he has a way of knowing what the purpose of this person is...... It's just that although the head of the guard has the intention to cover it up, he is also afraid that in case, what if this thief really harms a noble girl......

However, this thief didn't spit out a word!

The head of the guard looked fiercely at the tall man who was kneeling on the ground, but saw that the tall man was looking away, he followed the tall man's gaze, and saw that the tall man was looking at the unconscious maid who was supported by two maids...... His brows furrowed, seeing that the maid was well dressed, so, the master of the maid......

"Have you searched carefully?" The head of the guard asked the two subordinates.

The two young guards glanced at each other, and Goo Jun said that he had really searched carefully.

"Although this small island is not big, the scenery is very complicated, and it will be very complicated to search," Miss Guangliu said: "This guard, I think, you still told Shangfeng to send more people to search together,"

"This ......" the head of the guard showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and said, "Miss also knows that the third eldest princess attaches great importance to this banquet...... If something goes wrong halfway, I'm afraid that the third eldest princess will be unhappy......"

Hearing this, Miss Guangliu pursed her lips, and the other young ladies also fell silent.

Some of the young ladies who appeared here were not used to seeing the Third Eldest Princess and Shen Manzhu bullying the Du sisters in the main hall, and some of them were afraid of the Third Eldest Princess's too moody temperament......

This peony banquet can be regarded as the first time that the third eldest princess held a banquet, and the first time she communicated with the noble circle of the capital as an "adult", and the importance can be seen...... If it really makes a big deal out of it, this is to discredit the peony banquet of the third eldest princess...... As an eyewitness present, no one knows if the third eldest princess will hate them, or how she will hate them...... Moreover, the young ladies who grew up in the courtyard of the deep house have clever thoughts, and everyone knows very well that it is best not to involve the master in this matter in front of them......

At this stalemate, footsteps pierced through the rockery not far away.

Everyone looked over and saw that it was Aunt Yin and Leng Xi, who had just gone to search with the guards, who had returned.

The two guards who followed Aunt Yin and Leng Xi also told the head of the guards that they had not found any suspicious people.

"Aunt Yin," Miss Guangliu asked hesitantly, "Is it true that no suspicious people have been found?" ”

Everyone also looked at Aunt Yin.

Aunt Yin's age is here, and Aunt Yin's talent is famous, and she often teaches in the mansion of the nobles in the capital, so everyone's attitude towards Aunt Yin is very respectful...... Although I wonder why Aunt Yin suddenly appeared here, I am very dependent on Aunt Yin at the moment.

Seeing that everyone asked, Aunt Yin first glanced at Leng Xi, who was standing quietly aside, and then smiled: "I have carefully looked at the north with Miss Leng, and I really didn't find anything suspicious over there." ”

Seeing Aunt Yin say this, the head of the guard was overjoyed and said, "If that's the case...... I think it's just that this thief wants to murder this girl...... The lowly took this thief down for interrogation, and as for this maid, ......"

The head of the guard looked at the unconscious maid, and then at Aunt Yin, as if he didn't know how to decide.

"Don't worry," Aunt Yin didn't look at the unconscious maid, and said, "Although I haven't found anything suspicious in the north, I haven't seen any other places, so I'm always very uneasy...... can't disturb the banquet of the third eldest princess, so, just us people, everyone searched around, and didn't find anything best, if there is really a ...... That's not as simple as a human life......"

As soon as Aunt Yin said this, not to mention that the relevant guards were scared in a cold sweat, even those irrelevant young ladies were also frightened and turned pale.

So the crowd dispersed and went around the island in groups.

Aunt Yin took the maid and turned into a small road facing south.

After walking a few steps, Aunt Yin suddenly stopped, she looked back at Leng Xi who was silently following her, and said with a smile: "Why does Miss Leng always follow me?" ”

Leng Xi was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Aunt Yin to ask such a question, she looked at the bushes with lush foliage, and then showed a very embarrassed smile, and said, "I, I admire my aunt's talent and learning...... It's a little dark here, and I think I can rest assured by following my aunt......"

Aunt Yin raised her eyebrows and smiled, and said lightly: "I heard that Miss Leng dabbled in horseback archery when she was in the south, and she grew up like a man, but she didn't want Miss Leng to become timid after returning to Beijing?"

Leng Xi blinked, smiled shyly and lowered his eyes without answering.

Shaking her head and chuckling, Aunt Yin didn't care about Leng Xi and continued to walk forward, and Leng Xi also followed behind Aunt Yin.

After a while.

After carefully probing the Yin Guo, there was still nothing, but at this time, I heard a commotion not far away, among them, there was a faint word for the town of the country, and the faces of Aunt Yin and Leng Xi changed, and they hurriedly walked towards the noise.

“…… The slave maid felt that this person's face was very familiar, wiped the blood on her forehead and looked at it, and recognized it at once, " When Aunt Yin and Leng Xi got closer, they heard a little maid swear and say: "The slave promises that she is the maid next to Miss Wei Si of the Zhenguo Houfu......"

"Miss Wei Si of Zhenguo Houfu ......"

"The Maiden ...... of the Maple Tree"

"Why is Wei Feng's maid ...... here?"

"Where's Wei Feng? Didn't you get killed on this island......"

……

After recognizing the unconscious maid as Wei Feng's personal maid, all kinds of speculations about Wei Feng followed.

Someone saw Aunt Yin coming, and hurriedly said: "Miss Wei Si is my aunt's student, aunt come and take a look, is this Miss Wei Si's maid......"

Aunt Yin frowned and stepped forward to check.

Leng Xi was about to follow, but Yu Guang suddenly noticed a bright light flashing in the grass at the feet of the unconscious maid, and after a pause, Leng Xi slowly walked to the grass and stopped.
