Chapter Ninety-Seven: Don't Guard Against It

Zhiwan didn't want to go back to the house, so she hugged the dust in the house, walking back and forth, the more she thought about it, the more confused she became, all this came too suddenly, and she didn't have time to think about it at all.

When the two children were put to sleep, Poria pulled her out.

When I returned to the Hou Mansion, I just entered the second gate, and a maid shouted to Ling, "Your mother was beaten in the front yard, and the Hou Ye didn't allow others to help her, so don't you hurry up." ”

Poria's face turned white when she heard this, and she turned around and ran towards the study, clenching her palms and walking briskly towards the study.

Outside the study, Yao's mother knelt there, there were blood stains on her clothes, and her forehead was full of beads of sweat, Poria went to pull her up, Yao's mother shook her head, "Mother is fine, mother is wrong for not protecting the girl, she should be punished." ”

Knowing the evening atmosphere, I pushed the door in, and in the study, there was a mess, broken tea cups, and antique vases, which were broken on the ground, and they creaked when they stepped on it.

Dingyuan Hou sat on the chair, his expression was very depressed, he shouted sorry in his mouth, and he didn't even notice that Zhiwan approached him, but stared at a painting in a daze, the woman in the painting covered half of her face with a fan, and only a pair of eyes could be seen, which was so beautiful that people were ashamed of themselves.

Zhiwan called his father softly, Dingyuan Hou raised his head, looked at Zhiwan, and reached out to touch Zhiwan's head, "Dad shouldn't scold you, you're right, just don't think it happened before." ”

Zhiwan thought that Yao's mother must have said that she was killed by someone, and only Chen'er and Si'er were there, but it was Qin Zhiyu and Qin Zhishu who were wrong, and Dingyuanhou couldn't help her escape back to justice, otherwise Chen'er and Si'er wouldn't be able to hide it, Zhiwan's nose was sour, and she nodded her head, "The matter has nothing to do with Yao's mother, my daughter ......." ”

The matter has nothing to do with Yao's mother, but she shouldn't hide it from him, and help Zhiwan escape from marriage, if he had known earlier, he wouldn't have let Zhiwan come back, outside the Hou Mansion, he could make full decisions. But in the Hou Mansion, he is not alone in the final say, she is too confused!

Zhiwan begged bitterly, but Dingyuan Hou was still relieved. Spare Yao's mother.

When Zhiwan went out, he happened to meet Qian's, Hou Ye went out on an errand, and when he came back, he was furious, and beat the fourth girl's personal mother Thirty boards were not counted, and she was punished for kneeling, which had never happened before, Qian was happy, but he was afraid that something big would happen, but he came out unharmed when he saw Zhiwan. Qian thought that the fault should not be on her, it should be that she didn't take good care of Zhiwan, so he asked Hou Ye, "Hou Ye, what mistake did Yao's mother make." Angering you so much? If it doesn't go my way, I'll pick another one for the four girls? ”

Dingyuan Hou stared at Qian, his hand slowly tightened, and then slowly let go, closed his eyes and said, "No need, prepare the official uniform." I'm going to the palace. ”

Qian knew that the Marquis of Dingyuan came back from an errand, and it was reasonable to change into official clothes and immediately enter the palace to meet the emperor, but now he was delayed for a long time for Yao's mother's affairs, and the more Qian thought about it, the more he felt that the matter was very serious, and the Hou Ye rarely forgot his official duties because of personal reasons.

It's just that Hou Ye has already punished Yao's mother. Her punishment again means that Hou Ye's punishment is light, and she doesn't know what happened and why Hou Ye punished her.

Zhiwan and Poria helped Yao's mother back to the Sandalwood Courtyard, Bai Shao had already carried the medicine box to Yao's mother's room, and Zhiwan helped Yao's mother take medicine. Looking at the wound she was beaten, Zhiwan's eyes were red, and Yao's mother squeezed out a smile with difficulty, "Hou Ye hurts the girl, it is the slave who did something wrong, and he shouldn't hide it, if the slave told Hou Ye, the girl would not have suffered so many grievances, and Hou Ye should punish the slave and maid." ”

Zhiwan smiled lightly, "You hide it from your father for my own good, I understand." ”

On this day, it was destined to be unpeaceful, the news of Yao's mother's punishment was speculated, and there was nothing to say, but before I could figure it out, then Hou Ye's tantrum in Aunt Mei's house spread all over the Hou Mansion, and several aunts wanted to be courteous when Hou Ye came back, so that Hou Ye lost his temper and slept in the study all night.

Early the next morning, the chief manager appeared in the study, his face stiff, "The slave is not doing well, and the two children of the fourth girl have not been able to send them away." ”

Dingyuan Hou frowned, "Except for Lao Liu Tou, who knows some punches and kicks in the small courtyard, everyone else has no martial arts at all, who can stop you?" ”

The chief shook his head, "There are still two secret guards in the shadows, and they are above the minions, and the minions have no chance to get close to the two children, they are under the order of the king of Yue County to monitor the two children, if the minions go again, they will not show mercy." ”

Dingyuan Hou frowned even more, what did King Yuejun do when he had nothing to do to spy on the two children? Yesterday, the emperor also issued an inexplicable holy decree to him, not to easily let the people who know the late Xu, especially those gentlemen, he still wondered, but Gonggong Xu added, such as Second Young Master Song, such as Young Master Chu, such as ...... For example, a bunch of them, he was confused, and the Marquis of Dingyuan was even more straightforward, and directly asked the emperor for marriage, but the emperor haha, and the son-in-law found it himself, and was cruel to the son-in-law, this is a holy decree.

Don't give marriage, and don't allow him to let people easily, and can't be too good to his son-in-law, the emperor is really idle, he has only been away from Beijing for more than ten days, and even the emperor is concerned about the marriage of Zhiwan.

At this time, Lin Moxuan, the secret guard told Ye Guiyue about the fact that the chief manager sneaked into the small courtyard last night and wanted to take away the two children, including the fact that Dingyuan Hou found out that Zhiwan had given birth to a child during the day and smashed the table with one palm.

Ye Guiyue raised his eyebrows slightly, he didn't expect that Dingyuan Hou would go to the small courtyard, and he found two children so coincidentally, why didn't he listen to the secret guard come back to tell her about being punished, Dingyuan Hou quietly sent away the two children, it seems that he wanted to hide it for her, he wanted to see what husband Dingyuan Hou would pick for her!

"Send a few more people to watch the small courtyard, and no one will be allowed to approach without my permission in the future."

"Yes."

After the dark guard left, Leng Feng came in and said, "Master, Leng Qi has passed the word, and the fireworks have been successfully made." ”

The corners of Ye Guiyue's mouth hooked, and the smile on his lips was like a flame, burning wantonly, scorching with a touch of romantic gesture, beautiful and incomprehensible.

In the sandalwood courtyard, Zhiwan was pruning the flower branches, and a little maid in a blue and blue skirt hurriedly came in and said, "Fourth girl, the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Weiguo Mansion have sent people to ask for marriage again." ”

Hearing this, Zhiwan clicked, and cut off a blooming bright moon, Poria pouted, glared at the maid and said, "If you ask for a kiss, you will ask for a kiss, and it's not the first time, what are you afraid of!" ”

To say that in the past, Poria would be frightened, but yesterday, the Hou Ye knew about the girl, how could he marry the girl into the princely family, it was absolutely impossible. Since it won't, I don't have to worry about how many people come.

The little maid shrunk her neck when she was scolded, and pursed her mouth a little aggrieved, Mrs. said earlier. The fourth girl's family affairs let the Hou Ye call the shots, and now that the Hou Ye is back, the four girls don't go to look at it, what if the Hou Ye really allows the four girls to be allowed?

Zhiwan put the scissors back in the tray, clapped his hands, and walked towards the courtyard door, Poria handed the tray to the little girl, and then walked out of the yard with Zhiwan behind him.

Before entering the rosin courtyard, Zhiwan saw two maids going out with trays, talking and laughing. "Do you say that the fourth girl is blessed or unlucky, she offended the king of Yuejun, and her good family affairs were harmed to him, but it attracted the prince of Xiangwang and the young master of Suining Mansion to ask for marriage, and there are eight families. Just wait for the Hou Ye to nod. ”

"Hou Ye has not been in a good temper in the past two days, he just dropped the teacup in front of so many people, and I don't know who was angry, Hou Ye has always loved the four girls, and for the sake of the four girls, they were all sent to the prison of Zhennan Wangguan, I guess I won't let the four girls go indiscriminately."

"Master Hou won't. But the old lady and the lady will, the old lady can't wait to send the four girls out as soon as possible, I will tell you secretly, last night, the old lady also had a nightmare, it seems that the Hou Mansion was beheaded because of the four girls. The old lady spoke, if the Hou Ye did not marry the fourth girl within a month, she would be killed, so as not to face the ...... of the ancestors and ancestors without shame. ”

As she spoke, the maid suddenly found Zhiwan standing not far from them. With a white face, he hurriedly lowered his head, pretending not to see it, and ran away quickly with a smoke, and behind him was the scolding of Poria Cocos, daring to chew the root of his tongue, and he wanted to hit ten boards!

Thinking of Zhao's nightmare, Zhiwan's eyes flashed slightly, the corners of his mouth curved slightly, and he stepped into the courtyard.

In the house, several ladies who came to the door to ask for relatives praised Zhiwan as having nothing in the sky and on the earth, and Zhiwan who was standing at the screen had a hot face.

Zhao sat there, fiddling with Buddha beads in his hand, with a loving smile on his face, and occasionally a few modest words, only to listen to her, "Master Hou, several young masters really want to marry Zhiwan, do you have an idea?" ”

Do you really want to marry? I haven't even met in person, where does the sincerity come from? Falling from the sky?

Qian saw that Dingyuan Hou was sipping tea and was silent, he didn't know what to think, he was a little anxious, several ladies were waiting for a reply here for a long time, and they had already said it, no matter who the Hou Ye promised Zhiwan to, after all, Zhiwan could only be Xu family, they all understood, it can only be said that there was no fate, the more Qian looked at it, the more he felt that Dingyuan Hou didn't want to know the determination to marry late at all, and his heart was also gloomy, and even Zhao's nightmare was said, Hou Ye was still partial to Zhiwan, did he really want to be satisfied with the Hou Mansion? !

Qian was about to speak, when suddenly the maid called the four girls, Qian's brows sank, and said, "Come in." ”

Zhiwan calmly stepped into the house, saluted in a circle, and then bit his lip and looked at Dingyuan Hou, "Dad, no matter who you promise your daughter to, your daughter has no complaints, but my daughter has two sentences that I don't know whether to say or not." ”

Dingyuan Hou was silent for a few seconds, then nodded, "Say it." ”

Zhiwan glanced at a few ladies with a somewhat evasive expression, as if he wanted to tell Dingyuan Hou alone, Qian impatiently urged, "These ladies are here to matchmakers, if they have something to say, they will say it directly, twist and pinch, how can they be a beautiful girl!" ”

Zhiwan wrung the embroidered handkerchief in his hand, and his voice was worried, "On the way here, I heard that the old lady had a nightmare at night, and the Hou Mansion that I harmed was full of beheading, and Zhiwan also had a nightmare, and it was also a nightmare, and it was the husband who asked me to send a burden to my father, and then the officers and soldiers came to arrest the father, and the daughter begged the husband, not only did he not help, but he also fell into the well, abandoned his daughter, and the daughter was delirious, and set a fire at night, and the fire burned for a day and a night, and everything was burned to ashes....... ”

The more Zhiwan said the quieter the voice, the whole person shrank up, there was a kind of fear that others would look at her, Zhiwan lowered her head, even her breath shrank, and she didn't dare to pant roughly, but the corners of her mouth were raised, you will have nightmares, I can too, I hurt the Hou Mansion all over the door, I admit that it is, but I didn't mean it, it was my husband who asked me to do it, I had to do it, today you will marry me, and I will harm the Hou Mansion in the future, it is completely a cycle of cause and effect, and there is no cause and no effect.

Zhao's face stiffened, looking at Zhiwan's way, it seemed that the nightmare was not nonsense, could it be true? She said that she had a nightmare completely to warn Hou Ye, Zhao was beating a drum in her heart, rather than taking the entire Hou Mansion on the line, she would rather not marry in her life!

Dingyuan Hou sat there, sipping tea casually, if you look carefully, you can also find a smile on the corner of his mouth, his daughter is really earth-shaking, and she will plan it, "But do you remember who the husband in the dream is?" ”

Zhiwan shook his head, "I don't know, my daughter has never seen him before, I only remember that when I saw him for the last time, he was wearing a cloud brocade robe, a jade belt around his waist, a jade fan in his hand, and a Qinglou woman ...... in his arms." ”

Yunjin, the Dayue Dynasty has regulations, only earls and above can be worn, plus the waist jade belt, that is the home of the powerful, and there is a Qinglou woman in his arms, it can be seen that he is a gentleman, just these few sentences, the young master of the family who came to ask for marriage today is all covered.

Hearing Zhiwan say this, those ladies couldn't sit still, when Zhiwan said it, they sat down in their hearts, it was completely in line with ah, they were just invited to talk to the matchmaker, in case Zhiwan said it came true, I couldn't imagine it, the four girls knew all the courage, they were wronged, they set fire, everyone died together, and they did it completely, she didn't need to discredit herself.

The ladies regretted agreeing to help propose, and now even if the Marquis of Dingyuan agrees to ask for marriage, she will definitely be asked to return when she goes back, but what she said just now is so sincere, if she says that she will not marry at this time, isn't that a slap in the face?

Several ladies looked at each other, the meaning was self-evident, and they were about to get up, when Dingyuan Hou put the teacup on the table and said, "The old lady has a nightmare alone, I don't believe it, I even have a nightmare at night, I don't dare not believe it, even if it's not true, I don't dare to take this risk, I don't dare to respond to a few people's requests for forgiveness, please tell the king and others, and let me come to the door another day to make amends." ”

Those ladies hurriedly stood up and said with a smile, "The big dream warns, you must be guarded, it is reasonable that the Hou Ye does not dare to marry the fourth girl, so let's go back and say goodbye." ”

After speaking, he hurriedly walked out, and he didn't want the Qian family to send it, as if he was a step slower, he was caught by the Marquis of Dingyuan.

When the ladies left, Zhao no longer hung that smirk, and the Buddha beads in her hand moved quickly, which showed that she was angry in her heart, "If you have the courage to ask for a kiss, it will harm the Hou Mansion in the future, and the Hou Ye plans to keep her for a lifetime?" ”
