The lights are shining.

Liangyu climbed the stairs and walked to the door that was hidden in the void, and with a little force, the door fell backwards with a bang, waking up a group of people who were laughing around the table.

Song Hengbo was the first to react, she stood up weakly and bonelessly leaning on the edge of the table, and a delicate body was hidden under the layers of gauze clothes, full of fragrant powder.

She raised her eyebrows, bringing out a bit of force: "Who are you?" What is the intention of breaking into my boudoir in the middle of the night! ”

Liangyu's face did not change, and he stood as straight as a pine: "On the order of the seventh girl, send the fourth girl to the ancestral shrine." ”

"Seven girls?" Song Hengbo smiled disdainfully, "Let's not say that she is no longer in the mansion now, even if she is in the mansion?" I'm her sister, why did she punish me to go to the ancestral shrine? Just relying on the identity of a descendant? It's a joke. ”

"The four girls are willing to say whatever they want, but the four girls are definitely going to the ancestral shrine to think about it today." Liangyu didn't want to argue with her, and when she saw that the maids around her all stood up and protected Song Hengbo's side, she just smiled lightly, "It seems that the four girls are unwilling to cooperate with the slaves and maids to go on a trip?" ”

Song Hengbo looked coldly: "Tell your girl, I am the future general's wife, and what is she, she is just a girl from the broken Hou Mansion!" Maybe in the future, who will have to look at whose eyes to live? If she makes me happy today, maybe I can say a few kind words for my cousin in front of her in the future, so that she can find a good husband to marry in the future, if I am not happy, she will not want to have a good life. As she spoke, she paused slightly, and her voice suddenly became sharp, "Get her out of here!" ”

Liangyu was still as steady as Mount Tai, she glanced sideways behind her, and in the blink of an eye, Yeyi walked in with a sword in hand.

Song Hengbo saw the long sword in Yeyi's hand almost at a glance, a chill rose in her heart, she stumbled back a few steps, and said sharply: "This is the Hou Mansion, you dare to commit murder here." ”

"Fourth girl, this is the secret guard of the house, and it is also the personal guard of the seventh girl, it is inevitable that the slave maid will hurt the fourth girl for a while, and please ask the fourth girl to consciously go with the slave maid." Liangyu smiled slightly.

Song Hengbo scolded sharply: "Presumptuous, why let me pass, I have the ability to let Song Yige roll over for me!" ”

Liangyu only said: "Since the four girls are unwilling to cooperate, then don't blame the slave maid for hurting the four girls for a while." ”

"Presumptuous!" Song Hengbo reprimanded with a pale face.

Liangyu smiled sarcastically, half-lowered his eyes, and was about to tell Yeyi to make a move, when he heard a faint female voice outside: "Liangyu, Yeyi." ”

As soon as Song Hengbo heard this voice, anger instantly surged into his heart, and when he picked up the maid in front of him and was about to step forward to reason with her clearly, he heard her voice continue to sound again.

"Take Song Hengbo down for me."

Calm, no waves.

She suddenly looked up and looked at the slender girl standing under the eaves of the porch, the halo shallow and faintly shrouded, hitting her white face like jade, for a moment, she actually felt that she was like a charm in the night.

She was suffocated for breath, and she didn't have time to defend herself, only to feel a brutal force coming from her side, and her body hit the table next to her, and she didn't even have time to cry out in pain, and she was gagged from behind.

Liangyu knew that these girls were delicate and noble, so she didn't dare to tie her with any rope, but instead tied her hands with strips of cloth, lifted her up, and pushed her in front of Song Yige: "Girl, tie it up." ”

"Send it to the ancestral shrine." Song Yige stood under the eaves of the porch and said in a cold tone, "Ming'er will send her to grandmother again." ”

Song Hengbo was restrained by Liangyu, his mouth was also blocked, and the whole person could only make a whimpering sound from his throat, which sounded a little pitiful.

Song Yige didn't look at her for half a minute, but looked at the maid who was kneeling on the ground in the house: "You girl is not doing well in some places, you who are waiting by her side, you should mention more, during my absence, how she is bullying others, don't think that I don't know if I am far away in Lin'an." ”

"Next time, I'm not just going to punish her, you...... My Huaiyang Houfu Temple is small, but I can't accommodate you girls who are too high-minded, understand? ”

The maid knelt on the ground and trembled, and could only respond resignedly, and the rest did not dare to say a word.

Song Yige asked again: "Which of you is the fourth sister's personal maid?" Come out. ”

"It's a slave." A petite figure slowly crawled out of the group of maids, its forehead still pressed against the cold ground, and its little face began to turn white with fear.

Song Yige glanced at it and said, "The ancestral hall is cold at night, you follow the fourth sister to serve." ”

When the maid heard this, she instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and her body fell to the ground softly: "Yes, the slave obeys the order." ”

Ancestral shrine.

In the dark night, only a lantern hung leisurely under the porch, the light and shadow were dim, and no life was visible, like a beast lurking in the night, just waiting for the prey to come to the door.

As soon as he stepped on the stone steps, Song Hengbo couldn't help but shiver, and a little timidity rose in his heart in an instant.

What stands here is only solemnity.

She was so frightened that her legs trembled, and she refused to move even a step.

Liangyu glanced at the maid, and the maid immediately stepped forward to hold Song Hengbo's hand, secretly exerted his strength, and took a few steps inside, Song Hengbo turned around angrily, and saw that his maid lowered her eyebrows and was pleasing to her eyes, and her usual half of her agility was gone.

"Four girls." Liangyu's voice sounded leisurely behind herself, in such a cold night, Song Hengbo's heart jumped, she turned around, and saw Liangyu standing behind him, with a smile on the corner of her lips, "I hope you know that it is the seventh girl who is in charge of the internal affairs of the mansion now, and the master of the Hou mansion is the eldest prince, the brother of the seventh girl, and you are just a concubine." ”

"If the seventh girl wants to open it one day and doesn't want you to be such a sister, do you think your life in the house is better than now, or not so good now."

Seeing that Song Hengbo was still unmoved, even angry, Liangyu continued to laugh and said: "Another disrespectful word, the fourth girl, your only reliance now is just the old lady, but now that the old lady is old, how long do you think the old lady can protect you?" ”

Saying that, Liangyu gently pushed her into the ancestral shrine, "Today, the four girls should think about the slave maid, don't waste such a good opportunity in vain, I hope the four girls of Ming'er can be restrained." ”

"Slave, farewell." Liangyu faced Song Hengbo's blessed body, and closed the door of the ancestral hall with an expressionless face.

She had been serving with the old marquis before, so she naturally knew how much the old marquis didn't like such a concubine, and even she didn't like this concubine very much.

Song Hengbo was so angry that he trembled, but he was helpless.

The maid walked around behind her in silence, untied the strip of cloth that she tied to her wrist, and as soon as her wrist moved, Song Hengbo had nowhere to vent his anger, so he turned around and slapped the maid's face with a palm.

She was furious, and used ten percent of her strength, and the girl's pretty little face suddenly became red and swollen.

But she still felt very incomprehensible, and scolded again: "Waste." ”

The maid hung her head slightly with red eyes.

The lights in the ancestral shrine are dim, and only the night is long.

After settling the matter between Mrs. Song and Song Hengbo, Song Yige immediately took Yesan back to Qingfeng Courtyard.

When she went back, Lu Zhu had already found an empty wing room for Xie Jingzhong and them, and a dim candle flame was placed on the table, and a map was laid on it.

She walked over a few steps and stood beside Xie Jingzhong: "Is this the place where my brother disappeared?" ”

Xie Jing replied, broke a branch out of nowhere, and drew a circle on his map, which was in a mountain, near a green hill on the outskirts of Jinling City, and next to several green hills there were also some nunnery for monks to practice.

Song Yige came all the way, but the water didn't come in, and now she was thirsty, she saw the teapot on the table, and she didn't care if the tea in it had cooled, so she poured a cup directly and poured it into her throat, and finally said: "Brother is so dignified, why did he go to such a remote place?" ”

Lu Zhu shook his head: "This slave doesn't know." ”

Song Yige turned his head to look at Xie Jingzhong's side face, and his tone softened slightly: "I don't know what Gongzi Xie thinks about this matter?" ”

Xie Jingzhong looked at the circle he drew seriously, and said without raising his eyes: "Since the girl already has an idea in her heart, why bother asking me?" ”

Hearing her words, Song Yige smiled slightly: "In this way, Gongzi Xie also agreed that I would search the mountains at night." ”

"Huaiyang is sick and weak, but it is not an ordinary man who can withstand the cold of the mountain night, although it has been so long, I don't have much hope." Xie Jingzhong directly said the worst plan in his heart.

Song Yige took a deep breath, what Xie Jingzhong said was not what she was worried about, her brother's body and bones couldn't last so long in the mountains, let alone that it was still close to early winter.

However, they always have to give it a try anyway.

Song Yige pinched the corner of the map, and after pondering for a while, he finally made a final decision: "Night three, count the number of people, and follow me into the mountain." ”

Xie Jingzhong sighed slightly, and then said: "Let's go, I'll go into the mountain with you, and I will take care of it." ”

Song Yige turned his head to look at it with some doubts, and after seeing Xie Jingzhong's serious appearance, his eyebrows loosened and he smiled softly: "This matter has troubled Gongzi Xie a lot, and now he has to involve Gongzi Xie to enter the mountain with us, so it is really impossible to repay such a great kindness." ”

After a pause, she continued, "Everyone in the world says that it is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, and my brother has such a close friend as Gongzi Xie, and this life is enough." ”

Xie Jingzhong smiled and shook his head: "You have praised me so much that I am not embarrassed." ”

"You can explain the affairs of the house, we may not be back until the day after tomorrow."

Song Yige smiled and bowed his head, led the green bead out of the house.

Now that the weather has gradually cooled, I don't know when it actually started to rain again, and the dense drizzle under the lamp halo weaves a rain curtain, completely covering the scenery here.

After standing under the porch for a while, the drizzle that drifted in wet the broken hair on her sideburns, she pushed back indifferently and said, "Do you remember everything?" ”
