Chapter 25: Conspiracy
"I went back to Master Xu, and I said that it was too late today, and I would go early tomorrow morning......"
“…… Ming'er?"
Cui Hong was taken aback, this is a summoning by Lord Xu, who is Lord Xu?
He is the heaven of the people of Pingcheng!
Someone else had already gone upside down, this little girl actually picked up Jiaolai, lost her mind slightly, Cui Hong smiled, and took the clothes she had just brought in, "Bai girl, get dressed, it's too late, the master should be angry...... "Remember, and said, "Li Gongzi is also waiting in the hall......"
"Li Gongzi ......" Mu Wanqiu sat up straight, "He's there too?" "Is it hard to ask her to honor the bet? Just pondering, seeing Cui Hong's dodging gaze at a glance, Mu Wanqiu leaned back again, and said lightly, "How can he be such an arrogant person?" ”
Cui Hong shuddered, a lightning bolt crossed the window lattice, her mother screamed, the clothes in her hand fell to the ground, Cui Hong looked down in a panic to pick up the clothes, "The slave is afraid of thunder......
“…… Is it? Mu Wanqiu quietly watched her pick up a set of pink auspicious clothes, shaking the dust on it in a panic, and strangely found that she was not afraid of the lightning just now.
“…… The thunder and lightning that the White Girl begged for was terrifying. After her mood stabilized a little, Cui Hong sneered and said, "It's not too early, the white girl should get dressed." ”
Mu Wanqiu, who was carrying a huge amount of money tonight, miraculously begged for rain, shattering Lord Xu's wishful thinking, and the cheers of the boiling pot in the rainstorm outside the yamen suddenly saw her as a god, obviously she couldn't be killed, Lord Xu panicked, and summoned Master Hou San overnight, Master Hou actually came up with an idea of getting the moon first near the water, and asked Lord Xu to take advantage of tonight to trick Mu Wanqiu into the backyard and accept her as an aunt; But if she doesn't go, how can this be good?
Seeing Mu Wanqiu sitting quietly and still, Emerald Red sweated urgently on her head.
"I'm afraid of thunder and lightning, so I light all the candles and ......" suddenly didn't see Cuihong's nervousness, Mu Wanqiu said lightly.
The emerald ghost answered the god with a strange yes, put down his clothes, and turned back to light the candle.
"Okay, you go out......" At the same time, a few long candles were lit, illuminating the small room brightly, and Cui Hong turned around and listened to Mu Wanqiu's instructions.
"This ...... This ......" Emerald Red twisted her hands in one place, "Master, Master......"
couldn't finish Lord Xu's explanation, she just went back, and Lord Xu had to peel her skin!
"Go and tell the lord that if I want this rain to rain for three days, I must fast and meditate now......"
"This ......" was stunned for a moment, and Cuihong's expression was light, "Yes, the slave will go back to the master......"
Hearing a burst of cheers outside, Mu Wanqiu frowned and asked Cui Hong, who was about to arrive at the door, "...... What's going on out there? ”
“…… It's the people who are cheering! Cui Hong turned around, "They all gathered at the door of the prefect's office and shouted to see you, the "savior"......"
"Oh......" Mu Wanqiu sighed, just about to lie down, and sat up suddenly, she remembered, in her previous life, it was because of this rain that it was not easy to come by, and the people who relied on the sky to eat ignored the thunder and lightning in the middle of the night, and they were all crazy in the rain, and later, the yamen reported that many people were killed by thunder and lightning that night......
"You went back to Lord Xu......" After a little thought, Mu Wanqiu called Cui Hong, who had already gone out, "Let the people go back, tonight is thunderous, God wants to punish the wicked, be careful that they have suffered unjustified disasters......"
Thinking of the reports of the various yamen in the previous life, it was said that the people who were killed by lightning were all wicked people, Mu Wanqiu said with a calm face, only such intimidation can save these excited and crazy simple people.
Turning around, Cui Hong looked at Mu Wanqiu in astonishment, and for a moment, she suddenly felt that Mu Wanqiu was a fairy who came to purify all living beings, and she didn't dare to give birth to a trace of blasphemy and deception.
After a long time, he replied in a trembling voice, "Yes...... Be...... The slave and maid are back to the master. ”
……
"Master Ann ......"
"Master Ann ......"
Seeing the master waiting for the three major steps in, the officials at the door of the hall greeted him one after another.
“…… Grown-up? Hou San asked as he walked.
“…… I'm up early, and I'm waiting for you in the back hall. Lord Xu's personal servant Xu Jie was coming out, "Come in......"
"Morning ......" One foot in the door, one foot outside the door, Hou San suddenly stopped there, "...... Got up early? He asked, unconvinced.
Last night, the little lady was a little darker, but she looked quite smart, and she just got her hands, how could Lord Xu be willing to afford it so early?
"Yes......" Xu Jie nodded, "I shouted early in the morning to let the slave pass you, no, the slave just came out, you came......" Xu Jie said, turned around and walked in with Hou San.
“…… Are you in a good mood? Hou Sanyi dragged Xu Jie aside.
"Adults have a dark ......face early in the morning," Xu Jie lowered his voice, "You ...... carefully"
Didn't you succeed?
Hou Sanyi was stunned, thinking of Mu Wanqiu's slender figure, he shook his head suspiciously, and muttered, "...... How can an adult not even handle such a small girl? ”
Xu Jie closed his mouth in amusement and hid behind Hou San.
Lord Xu was sitting in the hall drinking tea with a gloomy face, and the maids and women were standing on both sides like puppets holding their breath one by one, and when they saw Hou San stepping forward to salute, he had a gloomy face and no words.
"My lord......" didn't dare to sit down as usual, Hou San bent down and called out to my lord, wanted to say something, shut up again, raised his hand and sent everyone out, and then turned around, "That little girl......"
"She said she wanted to meditate...... Master Xu said in a muffled voice.
"Jing ......" The rain has come down, what kind of mind is she still quiet? was obviously perfunctory, and when Sanyi spoke, he remembered that the person in front of him was his food and clothing parents, and he was busy changing his words, "That...... The adult will wait for her to finish thinking before ......" and said gloomily, "As long as she is still in the adult's house, she is the meat on your board, you can rub ...... as you like"
"I'm worried about Li Gongzi......" A hint of gloom flashed in Lord Xu's eyes, "In the past, I couldn't invite him, but this time I took the initiative to collapse here......"
Before he finished speaking, Lord Xu stopped talking.
Also remembering the intimacy of Li Jun and Mu Wanqiu in front of the Altar of Asking for Rain, Hou San's lips moved, but he didn't speak, he straightened his waist and broke.
"Your Excellency......" He pondered for a moment, and Hou San's eyes suddenly lit up, "...... Do you remember the secret letter you received the other day? ”
“…… Secret letters? Lord Xu was stunned, "...... Which one? "There are more than a dozen secret letters in the yamen every day, how can he remember?
"The ...... of Lord Ruan," Hou San said mysteriously in a low voice.
“…… Lord Ruan? After staring at the two goldfish eyes and thinking for a long time, Lord Xu shook his head.
"It's the ...... that captured Mu Xiangye's daughter," Hou San reminded again.
"Mu Xiang's daughter......" Lord Xu muttered unconsciously, as if remembering, he asked, "What does this have to do with the white girl?" ”
"The subordinates heard that the white girl was the ...... who entered the city during that time" Hou San flashed two monkey-like eyes, "The subordinates also heard that before she entered the game shop, she was a wandering girl......" her mouth was attached to the root of Lord Xu's ear, and she said word by word, "The situation is exactly the same as described in that secret letter......"
