Chapter 187: Annihilation
Meng Xilan trembled slightly with anger, and looked at Gao Fuli in shock. "Poison? Where did you get the poison? ”
Gao Fufu lowered his head again: "Slaves have their own ways to be slaves, I don't want to pollute your ears, master!" ”
"Humph! You don't want to stain my ears, but now you stain my eyes! Meng Xilan shook off Zhulu heavily and stepped forward to support her hand, and said in a deep voice: "Now that you all have your own ideas, what you want to do, why don't you still take me as a master in your eyes." ”
When the three of them heard this, they all knelt down in unison and kowtowed to confess.
Gao Fuli even knelt down and took a step forward, and said with tears in his eyes: "Master, the slave knows that he has done something wrong, but the slave is all for the sake of the master...... Be a man and do things, never suffer in the future, this is what you taught your slaves! If the slave doesn't finish him today, the matter will be big when he turns around, in case he jumps over the wall and bites you in a hurry, won't he cause trouble for the master! ”
Meng Xilan's heart tightened when she heard this, and she looked at Chang Chun who was out of breath on the ground again, her body shook slightly, and she sat down with a frown.
She didn't know that he was a nuisance, and even if he was left alive today, he would be hurt again one day. But even so, she didn't want to see someone die in front of her on the spot.
Zhu Lu looked at the subtle changes in the expression on her face, hurriedly knelt down and took two steps forward, using half of her body to block Gao Fu, and pleaded: "Master, Xiao Lizi has done something wrong today, but you can spare him this time if he has been serving you wholeheartedly." ”
Gao Fu bowed his head and wiped his tears, never defending himself again.
Meng Xilan was silent for a while, reached out and rubbed her temples, and sighed: "That's it, you all say it's for my sake, how can I punish you?" It's just that this man died here, how long do you think you can hide it? ”
Gao Fuli was obviously prepared, wiped the tears on his face and said: "Don't worry, master, since it is the minion's idea, then the master will simply leave everything to the minion to handle." ”
If he dares to do this, he must have a backhand.
Meng Xilan sighed slightly; "Okay, then you can do it, and you won't leave any trouble."
Gao Fuli's shoulders drooped slightly when he heard this, and a hanging heart finally let go.
Meng Xilan didn't want to stay in the temple for a moment, leaving only Gao Fuli to cook alone, and returned with Zhulu and Zhuqingyuan.
Zhu Lu personally drove the carriage, and Zhu Qing accompanied the master inside, seeing her solemn expression, she said: "Master, don't be angry, the slave is stupid and doesn't know how to persuade you, but the slave knows that Xiao Lizi is the most loyal to the master." For the sake of the county lord of Anning, he has always been very reluctant to go, and always feels that he has burdened the master! ”
Meng Xilan closed her eyes and recuperated, listening to her words, thinking about Fang Cai's affairs, and her heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
In the evening, Gao Fuli hurriedly came back to report: "The slave has taken care of everything, and the master can only rest assured." ”
Meng Xilan looked at him silently, looking at him in fear.
"Master...... If you want to beat or punish, it's all up to your words. Gao Welfare took a deep breath and took the initiative to ask for punishment.
He thought about it, he had to let the master out of this evil breath, otherwise, wouldn't it be worse if she was stuffy in her heart and had a dislike for herself.
Meng Xilan was silent for a while before saying: "I won't punish you, today you made the decision for me and caused a trouble, it stands to reason that I should reward you." However, we have one more life in our hands. The blood in this body must be cleaned up first. ”
When Gao Fuli heard this, his heart sank: "Master, don't worry, the matter of the young man of Changchun, the slave is properly cooked, and the slave is willing to use the head of the item as a guarantee, and there will definitely be no leakage." ”
Meng Xilan's eyes were dark when she heard this, and her fingertips tapped lightly on the tabletop and said, "Something really happened, what's the use of your head?" But I'll accept this sentence first, and if you dare to mess around behind my back, I won't spare you. ”
The high welfare should be repeated, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief in my heart. Zhulu secretly sweated for him. The master's mind is so heavy, he won't just forget it.
Two or three days later, the news of the county lord Anning's illness reached the palace.
The powerful masters in the palace all went to the palace to escape the summer, only a few less favored mothers and princes stayed in the palace, they heard that the county lord was sick, and naturally wanted to show goodwill, so they sent the palace people to prepare a thin gift.
What kind of illness Zhou Li'er had, few people in the palace knew, and no one in the hospital dared to talk nonsense, for fear of offending Zhou Shirao.
Meng Xilan knew that the people in the palace were not strict, and now that such a "good" thing had happened, how could she be less seasoned with gossip.
Zhu Lu got her orders, and deliberately turned several people, so that the palace maids could spread the news of Zhou Li'er and Renzhu's secret marriage.
started talking like this, coupled with everyone's oil and vinegar, this secret story gradually became a charming story. Subsequently, some people outside the palace also knew about it, so they turned this story into a play, which caused a storm in the city.
Seeing that the heat was almost brewing, Meng Xilan specially prepared a lot of supplements to replenish qi and blood, and sent someone to send them to Zhou Li'er, deliberately slapping her in the face.
Every time Gao Welfare goes out of the palace, he can always bring back some new news. Meng Xilan didn't like it when she heard it, and her face was just faint.
Zhulu was puzzled: "Master, now that the evil spirit in your heart has been removed, why are you still unhappy?" ”
Meng Xilan said lightly: "There is nothing to be happy about. If we gloat and get carried away, then the next time we are laughed at, it will be us again. ”
Zhou Li'er calculated Xiyue and harmed the Meng family, this account is now cleared, but the twists and turns in the future will not end there.
At night, Meng Xilan had just fallen asleep when there was an abnormality outside.
Zhulu put on a coat to look at it, and came back in a panic: "The master is not good, the Changqing Palace is gone." ”
Meng Xilan chuckled in her heart when she heard this, wearing only pajamas and cloaks, and hurried to Changqing Palace.
Looking up, you can see bursts of black smoke in the distance, which are constantly drifting from the upper mouth of the Changqing Palace.
Meng Xilan clenched Zhu Lu's hand in a panic, causing Zhu Lu to secretly feel pain.
In the Changqing Palace, the fire was raging, and the flames on the roof went up with the wind, soaring high, sharp and piercing like the sharp teeth of a beast, which made people shudder to watch.
The eunuchs and maids inside and outside the palace were busy fighting the fire, all of them were in a mess and looked frightened.
Meng Xilan stood at the gate of the palace, grabbed a person at random and asked, "Where is the ninth master?" ”
The little eunuch said with a crying voice that he didn't know. The fire was so big that everyone was busy putting out the fire, and no one bothered to go inside the house to take a look.
Meng Xilan instantly let go of her hand, and subconsciously wanted to go to the palace.
Zhulu Zhuqing was panicked, and grabbed her tightly with both hands: "It's dangerous, master, you can't go in." ”
Gao Fuli stood behind him and shouted, "Where is the ninth master?" Have any of you seen the Ninth Master? ”
He kept shouting loudly, but no one dared to answer, because no one saw where the ninth master was?
For some reason, Meng Xilan suddenly felt a desperate sadness hit her heart, and she shivered all over.
In the midst of the chaos, the grizzled little round ran out of it, kowtowed to Meng Xilan and said, "Your Highness, the slave can't find the ninth master...... The ninth master is not ......"
Before he finished his words, he was scolded by Meng Xilan: "What's not there?" How do you serve your master? ”
As she spoke, she turned and walked out as if she had suddenly remembered something.
They say he's not there, he's not there......
"Master, where are you going?" Zhulu Zhuqing panicked, only to see Meng Xilan walking extremely fast, muttering in his mouth: "He's not here, he's not here." ”
Meng Xilan hadn't taken two steps before she saw a figure running in the distance.
She stared at the figure, her hands clenched into fists unconsciously.
Gao Fufu was sharp-eyed, and he immediately recognized who that person was. "Master, that's the Ninth Master, it's the Ninth Master."
Meng Xilan's expression froze slightly, only looking at Zhou Youchen running all the way, panting at her, and panting at the smoky Changqing Palace behind her, her face was puzzled: "What's the matter?" ”
Meng Xilan looked at him and didn't say anything, she reached out and grabbed him, and then, hugging his thin shoulders hard, she sighed heavily: "Where did you go again?" ”
Along with her words, there were also her tears.
She had never been so panicked as she had just been, as if something had really happened to him......
Zhou Youchen was stunned, and the whole person leaned stiffly towards the warm and trembling body, not knowing what to do for a while.
Seeing this scene, Zhulu Zhuqing lowered his eyes and said, "Ninth Master, the Changqing Palace is gone, and my master is worried that something will happen to you, and he is scared enough." ”
Hearing this, Zhou Youchen came back to his senses slightly, his gaze slowly moved up, he looked over her shoulder at the Changqing Palace in the smoke, and suddenly exclaimed: "No, my aunt is still inside......
He suddenly broke away from Meng Xilan's arms, and was about to run towards the palace gate, but Gao Fu's eyes were sharp, he hugged him, and said tightly: "Ninth Master, can you go in." It's too dangerous inside......"
Zhou Youchen was willing to listen, scolded and kicked him, and shouted: "You let go of me, I'm going to find my aunt......"
Gao Fuli didn't let go no matter how he resisted, and finally had to do his best to press him to the ground.
Meng Xilan staggered over, knelt on the ground, looked at Zhou Youchen, whose eyes were red, and said in a deep voice: "No matter who is in there, you can't go in." ”
When Zhou Youchen heard this, a fierce energy flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly stretched out a palm and slashed at Gao Fuli's throat, Gao Fuli couldn't breathe in an instant, and the whole person collapsed to the ground.
Zhou Youchen got up from the ground and was about to get up and run forward, but saw Meng Xilan stretching out his hand to block the front.
"Get out of the way, I have to save my aunt......"
Meng Xilan shook her head slightly, and said word by word: "The fire is too big, you can't save her." ”
Zhou Youchen didn't want to do anything with her, he didn't want to hurt her, unexpectedly, Meng Xilan seemed to have to entangle with him, grabbed his arm with both hands, and said with tears in her eyes: "Chen'er, you are obedient." ”
Suddenly, there was a loud noise behind him, and everyone exclaimed: "Oh no, no, the roof of the main hall has collapsed!" ”
Meng Xilan was so frightened that she let go of her hand and turned around, only to see billowing dust mixed with thick smoke coming to her face, and most of the entire main hall collapsed, in tatters and ruins.
"Auntie......" Zhou Youchen suddenly shouted heartbreakingly, and the whole person knelt straight outside the palace gate, like a puppet that had been pulled off the rope in an instant.
Meng Xilan looked at him quietly, her eyes widened, and she looked at a loss, and she also knelt down, kneeling in front of him, and stretched out her hands to hug him again, silently comforting.
The Changqing Palace was destroyed in this way, burned beyond recognition by a sudden fire, but the secrets hidden in the cracks of the palace wall will not be swallowed by the flames, they are still there, waiting for someone to dig up.
