"Nope!" Aunt Hui immediately denied it, "I am innocent with the old marquis, and I have not overstepped the system at all!" ”

"Really?" Mu Yunxuan seemed to have made a great determination, and Fang said, "I once heard the gossip behind the back of the grandmother in the palace, saying that on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, after the death of my father, I saw my aunt secretly meeting the old marquis in the back garden, and the two subordinates saw it with their own eyes!" Of course, I didn't believe it before, but now I ......"

"There are many people in the palace, and there are many eight women who love to chew their tongues and tell right and wrong." Aunt Hui sneered lowly, "I admit that I did see Master Hou in the back garden that day, but it was just an unintentional encounter, and I only said two words in total, and there was no ambiguity." ”

Seeing that her daughter still looked like she didn't believe it, Aunt Hui finally sighed and began to talk long: "Back then, when your father and the old Marquis of Helian led the army into Sichuan and quelled the rebellion of the King of Dian, I was sixteen years old.

At that time, I was a well-known beauty in Sichuan, and I broke through the threshold when I said that my relatives had broken through the threshold, and there was no shortage of children of the Sichuan and Shu families who were worthy of the lintel.

It's funny, although I was born in Shu, since I was a child, I love to watch some martial arts dramas of becoming a king and defeating a hero, and a hero in the green forest. If I want to marry Hui'an, I must marry a tall, burly, heroic man, preferably a big hero who straddles a horse and holds a spear and gallops on the battlefield.

Actually, this is just the ideal of a young girl's Huaichun, clinker treats me well, let me wait for such a man, and there are two of them.

At that time, Mu Yutang, the prince of Beijing, was majestic and noble, like a bright moon and a clear breeze, which made people admire at first sight and couldn't extricate themselves. And Dingyuan Marquis Helian You has a little more powerful and resolute style, and also has its charm.

After the night banquet and dance, I heard that both of them were interested in me, and I was secretly happy. But in addition to the joy, there is also a little worry, and I don't know how to choose. During this period, the Marquis of Helian asked someone to send me a letter, the letter was not long and a little blunt, and the words revealed the unique longing of military generals, which was difficult to speak and ashamed to admit.

I have never received such a letter, and I have been so excited that I can't sleep, and even impulsively want to choose the Marquis of Helian.

Then the next morning, my father and mother called me and told me the result of their search for the night, and that they wanted to promise me to the prince.

At that time, I still carried the letter of the Marquis of Helian in my arms, and for a moment I felt that the letter became extremely hot and burned my heart.

I lost my mind for a while, but I was stunned to listen to my father analyze the situation for me, saying that the prince of Beijing is in a high position, and even the current emperor is afraid of three points. Although the Marquis of Helian is also illustrious, he has never been able to surpass the control of the prince of Beijing, and the Helian clan is a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, which determines that the Helian clan's honor and favor are limited, and it is difficult to become a big weapon no matter what.

My father told me a lot, some of which I didn't seem to understand, but I also understood one thing: the person I chose could only be Mu Yutang, the prince of Beijing.

I am a boudoir woman, and I have to obey my parents' orders in the end of marriage. And I have also glimpsed the true face of the prince, which is indeed shocking and fascinating. After a short struggle, I complied with my father's wishes. As for living up to the affection of the Marquis of Helian, he can only sigh and regret.

Since then, I have never crossed paths with the Marquis of Helian. returned to Quang Ninh with the prince all the way and became his own son, and he was favored. In the blink of an eye, the years have passed, and there are already a group of children under my knees, and I have long forgotten the events of that year. ”

The reminiscence of the past made Aunt Hui's pale cheeks contain a faint brilliance, she said a lot in one breath, Mu Yunxuan hurriedly brought tea, Aunt Hui took two sips of her hand, gasped again, and said: "Clinker is impermanent, six years ago, the prince was plotted by gangsters and passed away. ”

"When I heard this bad news, it was like the sky was falling, and I just wanted to give up my body to follow the prince, but at that time, Yun Feng was just growing up, Yun Tong and Yun Xuan were still young, and I, as a mother, couldn't give up my child, so I could only bury my thoughts about my deceased husband deep in my heart and raise my children wholeheartedly."

Her words made Mu Yunxuan's eyes redden, and Qi Qiran called "Mother......"

Aunt Hui caressed her daughter's hair lovingly: "With my Xuan'er by my side, the days of widowhood are not so sad." On August 15 of the second year after the death of the late husband, the palace held a family banquet and specially invited the family of the Marquis of Helian to come to the mansion to gather together.

On that day, the family banquet was lively. It's just that I'm a widowed concubine, and it's not interesting to stay at the feast for too long, so I said goodbye to the princess. Clinker, walking to the back garden, unexpectedly met the old marquis who came out to change clothes.

I was going to leave after seeing the ceremony, but I didn't want to walk a few steps before I heard the old marquis call me 'Hui'an'.

Since the death of my late husband, my maiden name has not been called, I feel that it is inappropriate, pretending not to hear and speeding up the pace, but after a few steps, I was blocked by the old marquis.

The old marquis drank a few more glasses that night, and he was already a little drunk, and suddenly asked me if I had been doing all these years.

I didn't know how to answer, but he sighed to himself, saying that he had been fighting all his life, and he didn't admire the love of his children, but he was moved by a glimpse, but he lost to others, and he hated it for many years.

He suddenly mentioned old things, which made me panic in my heart, but I could only say that the deceased is gone, and I am now a widow with no trouble, so why mention those old things.

The old marquis sighed, turned around and left, leaving only a sentence, saying that if I have difficulties in the future, I can still go to the Hou Mansion to ask him for help. I easily persuaded him to leave, and I was so worried that I hurried back to Lanxin Garden. Since then, I have been a little jealous of the old marquis, and I have never met again, whether in public or in private. ”

Su Qi looked at Aunt Hui's eyes calmly, not as if she was lying, and asked after thinking about it: "Can you bother Aunt Hui to think about it, have you ever seen Lianxiang on the day she had an accident?" ”

Aunt Hui lowered her eyes and slowly spoke: "I remember, that day was the third anniversary of the prince.

As a concubine, I can't enter the prince's mourning hall. But after all, it was the day of the deceased husband's sacrifice, and I was sad in my heart, and I stayed in Lanxin Garden all day. It wasn't until late evening that Lianxiang came to my room looking for me.

I remember that a few days ago, she mentioned to me that she was not young and had no hope in the house, and hoped that I would allow her to leave the house and find her own family to marry. You also know that because she had climbed the high branches of the prince, I did not like her very much, and now that she had this thought, I consciously let her go out of the house, out of sight and out of mind, there was nothing wrong with it, so I allowed her to go and talk to the princess when she was free.

I think she came this time to ask her about leaving the house, but at that time, my son Yunfeng was in my room, and told me something important, which made my heart more troubled, so naturally I didn't have the heart to pay attention to the matter of lotus incense, so I gave her a box of dim sum and sent her away casually.

After that, Lianxiang left, and I didn't see her again until the next morning, when I heard about her affair with the old marquis......"

After listening to Aunt Hui, Su Qi and Mu Yunxuan glanced at each other, both full of doubt.

Aunt Hui said a lot of words, her face became worse and worse, Su Qi couldn't bear to disturb anymore, so she comforted a few words of peace of mind. Mu Yunxuan served Aunt Hui to fall asleep again, and then walked out of the bedroom with Su Qi.

"I thought that when my mother woke up, all her doubts would be solved, but now I am more and more confused!" In the main hall, Mu Yunxuan kicked the corner of the table and said sullenly.

Su Qi was also completely confused: according to Aunt Hui, she did not harm Lianxiang, and since Lianxiang wanted to go out of the house to marry, she should not have the intention of seducing the old marquis.

So, why did Lianxiang appear on the old marquis's bed, and she thought that Aunt Hui was her enemy?

Outside the window, a bright lightning bolt streaked, followed by rolling thunder, shaking the earth slightly.

"I thought of a way!" Mu Yunxuan stood up suddenly, and grabbed Su Qi's hand, "Won't you be able to see ghosts?" You take me to find Na Lianxiang, and I will ask her face to face why she hates my aunt so much! ”

"Are you crazy?!" Su Qi hurriedly grabbed her, "In the past, I was afraid of that resentful spirit, but now I want to take the initiative to find her?" ”

"I think clearly," Mu Yunxuan's tone was firm, "My aunt has not harmed Lianxiang, so I can't let Lianxiang abuse my aunt!" ”

Her resolute attitude really moved Su Qi, "You have some truth, since Aunt Hui herself doesn't know, then asking Lianxiang about the events of the year is also the most risky way." It's just that you can't see or touch the lotus fragrance, let alone talk to her. ”

"That ......"

Su Qi's eyes flickered and he smiled: "I have a better candidate...... Siniang! ”

Huang Siniang, who had been floating on the roof to watch the play, was suddenly named: "What's the matter with me?" ”

Mu Yunxuan was frightened by her "Siniang", and the back of her neck was cold: "You won't be ...... You're talking to that female ghost, aren't you? ”

"Exactly." Su Qi simply made an introduction: "The two of you have met, you might as well say hello officially: Mu Yunxuan, the daughter of the Mu family, and Huang Siniang, the late Miss Huang Siniang of the Huang Mansion." ”

Mu Yunxuan was still timid in her heart, but she had no choice but to shake her hand towards the empty corner according to her words, "You...... Okay......" After saying that, he whispered to Su Qi and asked, "Female ghost...... Are they all born...... Particularly scary? ”

"Hey you dead girl!" Huang Siniang floated in front of Mu Yunxuan angrily, "Can you speak?" Who's scary? ”

Su Qi glanced at Huang Siniang's scorched black head mushroom head, swallowed his saliva and said: "No, like this Huang Siniang, she was born like a fairy and has a graceful body, and she is also a female ghost...... Extremely beautiful. ”

"That's nature!" Huang Siniang snorted.

When Mu Yunxuan heard this, she also relaxed slightly. Su Qi easily coaxed one person and one ghost, and then continued to get down to business: "Siniang, as a female ghost, it is easier to communicate with the resentful spirits, are you willing to be merciful and help us do us a favor and go talk to Na Lianxiang?" ”
