Chapter 41: Atonement

Zhou Ziyu dragged his injured arm and had to send Yan Lingyue home.

Yan Lingyue couldn't be stubborn, so she could only nod. But as soon as he came out of Ming Hanxuan, he met the second prince Zhou Zichang.

"Where are you going, Ninth Brother?" Zhou Zichang's gaze paused as he swept over Yan Lingyue.

Zhou Ziyu obviously didn't like Zhou Zichang very much, so he protected Yan Lingyue behind him and said, "Send Yue'er home." ”

"Oh," Zhou Zichang nodded and looked at Yan Lingyue with a smile, "The first time we met, didn't my brother and sister say hello?" Let me introduce myself, I am Ziyu's second brother, Zichang. ”

Of course, Yan Lingyue knew that he was the second prince, the famous crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, how could she not know, "Yue'er has seen the second prince, and I hope the second prince will not be surprised if she is rude." ”

"Where, where. I have heard about the kidnapping of my younger brother and sister, and the ninth brother and younger brother and sister have worked hard," Zhou Zichang looked at Zhou Ziyu's arm, "The ninth brother's injury is not serious, I came over immediately after hearing the news from my father." ”

"No, it's fine. Yue'er wants to rest, I want to send Yue'er out of the palace," Zhou Ziyu pulled Yan Lingyue and was about to leave.

Zhou Zichang was embarrassed to lose face like this, but he still tried his best to keep smiling, "Then the ninth brother will send the younger brother and sister out of the palace first, and the second brother will not bother." ”

Zhou Ziyu didn't care, and dragged Yan Lingyue away.

Zhou Ziyu could not give Zhou Zichang face, but Yan Lingyue didn't dare, so she could only turn around and wave her hand to Zhou Zichang.

Seeing the backs of Zhou Ziyu and Yan Lingyue gradually disappear until they disappeared, the smile on Zhou Zichang's face disappeared, and his hands were clenched tightly into fists. Obviously, he is the crown prince of the Great Zhou, why does he always have to look at Zhou Ziyu's face?

is just a fool, why can Zhou Ziyu be favored by his father? What qualifications does he have to be so willful?

Among the princes in the palace, Zhou Zichang is the one he is most unaccustomed to. One day, he will make Zhou Ziyu kneel in front of him and wag his tail at him and beg for mercy!

It is said that after Zhou Ziyu and Yan Lingyue stepped out of the palace gate and got into the carriage, the first thing Zhou Ziyu did was to tell Yan Lingyue to stay away when she saw Zhou Zichang again.

Looking at Zhou Ziyu's serious face, Yan Lingyue couldn't help but smile, "Why?" Will the second prince still eat people? ”

Zhou Ziyu nodded solemnly, leaned into Yan Lingyue's ear and whispered, "This is true, when I was a child, I saw my second brother skinning people. ”

"Huh?" Yan Lingyue's eyebrows frowned slightly.

Zhou Ziyu said, "I remember when I was nine years old, the third brother gave me a rabbit, and when I chased the rabbit out to play, I met the second brother who was holding a knife to peel the skin of a little eunuch. The little eunuch cried heartbreakingly, and Ziyu was frightened at that time. I wanted to go to my father to save the little eunuch, but I was stopped by my mother. ”

"The queen mother said that Ziyu can't talk nonsense, otherwise the father will punish the second brother." Zhou Ziyu said, "The second brother is so cruel, Ziyu doesn't like the second brother." Ziyu likes the third brother, the third brother is gentle and good to Ziyu. ”

Listening to Zhou Ziyu from Zhou Zichang, he talked about Zhou Ziqin again. Yan Lingyue tugged at the corners of her mouth, she thought at first that Zhou Ziyu was so cold to Zhou Zichang because of the grievances between the queen and the imperial concubine. I didn't expect there to be this thing in the middle.

Zhou Ziyu emphasized again, "Yue'er must stay away from the second brother, it is dangerous." ”

"Okay, okay, I know," Yan Lingyue sighed.

This time, Zhou Ziyu did not enter the Yan Mansion, sent Yan Lingyue to the door of the Yan Mansion, and after watching her enter the Yan Mansion, she returned to the palace.

The huge Yan Mansion, looking for Yan Lingyue recently, is almost crazy. Yan resolutely had a black face all day long, and the subordinates of the Yan Mansion were even more in danger, lest they make a mistake and make the master unhappy. At this time, everyone was looking forward to Yan Lingyue's safe return as soon as possible.

So the moment Mr. Yan saw Yan Lingyue, his eyes lit up, "Miss! Miss, you're finally back. ”

"Miss, you're not hurt, are you?" Manager Yan came to Yan Lingyue's side and looked up and down carefully.

Yan Lingyue smiled, "Your young lady is blessed with a great life, how can she be injured." ”

"Yes, yes, look at the old slave's broken mouth," Mr. Yan slapped himself.

Yan Lingyue waved her hand, "Steward Yan, you are busy, I'll listen to the Rain Pavilion now." I was tied up in a cave for the past two days, and my whole body was about to stink. ”

When Mr. Yan heard this, he was slightly entangled, and finally stopped Yan Lingyue, "Rong Lao Nu dared to ask, is it really the second miss who kidnapped the fifth miss?" ”

Yan Lingyue raised her eyebrows.

Mr. Yan said, "As soon as the master returned home, he dragged the crying second lady directly to the ancestral hall. Even the old lady was alarmed, and the lady, the eldest lady, the third lady, and the sixth son all rushed over. The old man lost his temper, and although he retreated, there were still many people who heard a few words, and they all talked in private that it was the second miss who kidnapped the fifth miss. ”

Manager Yan said with a bitter face, "Could it be true?" Otherwise, how could the master lose his temper so much with the second lady? ”

Yan Lingyue listened to it and was happy, "I didn't expect Steward Yan to be quite fond of gossip." After the words fell, Yan Lingyue strode towards Tingyu Pavilion. As for the questions of Manager Yan and his subordinates, she didn't have time to solve their doubts, otherwise the spearhead would have been pointed at her at that time.

No matter whether Yan Zhihe is good or bad in the future, she doesn't want to carry this pot. To be honest, if it weren't for her occupying the body of the fifth miss of the Yan family and wanting to vent for the fifth miss of the Yan family, Yan Lingyue would not be interested in taking care of Yan Zhihe at all.

And after this incident, Yan Zhihe and the second aunt are completely out of play, even if Yan Li'an is still there. From now on, her only task is to avenge her father, the queen mother, and the Beiyan royal family!

As early as when Yan resolutely came back with Yan Zhihe, everyone in the Rain Pavilion knew that their young lady was safe and sound. The four maids had already prepared hot water and meals, and were waiting for Yan Lingyue to return home.

As soon as Yan Lingyue stepped into the Listening Rain Pavilion, everyone greeted her.

Seeing that Mama Li was about to start wiping her tears again, Yan Lingyue immediately said, "Prepare water, prepare water, I want to bathe." If your young lady doesn't take a bath, she will be smoked to death by herself. ”

Yan Lingyue rushed straight into the room.

Seeing this, Mama Li also forgot to cry, and hurriedly ordered the four maids to carry hot water.

It wasn't until the whole person was buried in the bath bucket that Yan Lingyue breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she had finally come to life.

And after the third aunt got the news of Yan Lingyue's return, she hurriedly brought Yan Xiling and Yan Qingning over. At that time, Yan Lingyue had just finished bathing and was lying on the bed drowsy.

"Seeing that the moon girl is safe and sound, the heart that my aunt is carrying can finally be put down," the third aunt sat on the edge of the bed, and as she spoke, tears fell.

finally stopped Mama Li, but I didn't expect to meet the third aunt again. Listening to the third aunt's choked voice, Yan Lingyue only felt a pain in her brain, "Aunt Lao is worried, isn't Yue'er good?" ”

Yan Lingyue was patient, picked up a silk handkerchief and helped the third aunt wipe her tears, "Although Yue'er was kidnapped for two days, fortunately she didn't suffer any harm, but she was hungry for two days, and her stomach was a little wronged," Yan Lingyue rubbed her lower abdomen and joked.

After hearing this, the third aunt hurriedly went to find Mama Li, "Where is Mama Li?" Don't go and prepare a meal for your young lady yet. ”

"No need, no need, before I came back, I had already eaten at the Nine Emperors," Yan Lingyue stopped the third aunt.

"I heard from the lord that the Nine Emperor Princes were injured in order to save the Moon Girl?" The third aunt said, "Is it serious?" It shouldn't delay the wedding, right? ”

Yan Lingyue shook her head, "It's not serious." ”

The third aunt sighed, "The Nine Emperors are really a good boy. No matter what the rumors are, as long as the Nine Emperor Princes treat the moon girl sincerely. ”

Yan Lingyue smiled.

"Fifth sister, are you still in the mood to laugh?" Yan Qingning said, "If it were me, I would have gone to the ancestral hall to punish Yan Zhihe." ”

"Qingning! What nonsense? The third aunt frowned.

Yan Qingning pursed her lips, "That's what it was." I really don't know what my father thinks, and he has repeatedly protected Yan Zhihe. ”

"Don't say any more, third sister," Yan Xiling pulled Yan Qingning's hand, "Fifth sister has finally come back, let's let her have a good rest." ”

"Yes, yes, the moon girl should rest quickly. Wait for the aunt to come back tomorrow," the third aunt sniffed and stood up.

Yan Lingyue was really tired, and she didn't say anything to save her. After Mama Li sent the third aunt and the two sisters out of the room, Yan Lingyue collapsed on the bed again.

And this sleep was an afternoon, and when Yan Lingyue opened her eyes again, night had already fallen, and the room was quiet.

Yan Lingyue stretched, put on her coat and got out of bed, just poured a glass of water, and before she could drink it, she heard a suppressed cough from the door.

Yan Lingyue's hand shook in fright, and she almost threw away the water cup, "Mama Li? Yan Lingyue shouted, but she didn't hear any movement, so she frowned and walked to the door. Who would have thought that as soon as he opened the door, he saw Yan Li'an kneeling at the door.

Belch...... What's going on? Yan Lingyue swallowed her saliva, and after putting the water cup back on the table, she hurriedly went to help Yan Li'an, "Sixth brother, what are you doing?" Don't hurry up yet. ”

Yan Li'an can't afford to live or die, "Li'an is here to atone for the second sister's sins." ”

"What the second sister did has nothing to do with the sixth brother, the sixth brother doesn't have to do this," Yan Lingyue tugged at Yan Li'an's arm, trying to pull him up.

"Li'an's move is not to intercede for the second sister. The second sister did such a rebellious thing, and Li'an had no shame to plead. Lean just didn't want to go, and wanted to do something to make himself feel comfortable. ”

Seeing Yan Li'an kneeling at the door and insisting on it, Yan Lingyue had a headache, "Mama Li? What about Mama Lee? Looking around the courtyard, Yan Lingyue shouted.

Yan Li'an said, "The fifth sister doesn't need to shout, they were all called away by their grandmother." ”

Yan Lingyue let out a turbid breath, so she could only go back to the room and move a stool, and sit aside to accompany Yan Li'an.
