Chapter 381: Swallowing Dates
The sky was getting dark, Lu Xiyi was thinking about Zhong Yihan, and he didn't know what was going on with him now.
Xue Xiaowan looked at Lu Xiyi with a preoccupied look, stepped forward, and asked softly, "What's the matter, Sister Lu, did you think of something?" ”
Lu Xiyi came back to his senses for a long time, and said with an indifferent smile: "Not really, I just remembered the capital, the road to Yuncheng this time is too dangerous, are you really not afraid?" ”
Seeing Xue Xiaowan's powerless appearance, she really didn't dare to take this risk, for fear that something would happen to her.
Xue Xiaowan's eyes were blazing, looking at Lu Xiyi's appearance of putting life and death out of the way, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, Sister Lu can take me in." Xiao Wan is already grateful. I'm definitely not afraid of being implicated, it's just that Sister Lu will dislike Xiaowan for dragging you down. ”
Shen Zhuosi heard the conversation between the two of them, and said with a muffled smile: "Okay, don't flatter the two of you anymore." Let's hope this rain will pass soon. ”
Listening to Shen Zhuosi's words, Lu Xiyi fell silent.
Zhenguo Mansion.
Zi Yan was about to enter Zhong Yihan's house with ginger soup, but she heard Lu Xiyi's voice, she was shocked, didn't Lu Xiyi go to Cloud City? How is it possible to come back at this time? In addition, it was stormy outside, and it was impossible for the eldest lady to rush back at this time.
Zi Yan took a deep breath and pushed the door open a tiny gap, and a shadow broke into view.
She was overjoyed, she thought that the eldest lady was really back, when she wanted to push open the door, when she walked in, she found that the woman's side face was a bit like the second lady, and when she looked closely, it was indeed the second lady, she was wearing the eldest lady's clothes, and imitated her voice, sitting on the edge of the bed and talking to the eldest prince about some big and small things.
No wonder the second lady said that she would not be allowed to come to Yonghetang to serve the eldest young master, it turned out that this matter was brewing, Zi Yan was shocked, she didn't expect the second lady to be so scheming!
Zi Yan turned her head in a trance, but unexpectedly a turquoise figure appeared in front of her, raised her eyes and saw that it was Xiu'er, Xiu'er hurriedly grabbed her wrist, and walked to a green bamboo circle glared at her and said, "Who told you to go to Yonghetang, didn't the second lady order, you are not allowed to appear in Yonghetang in the future?" ”
"It's raining heavily today, and the doctor said that he wants to boil more ginger soup to prepare, so Zi Yan will prepare some ginger soup, which was originally planned to be sent to the room, why did the second lady do that? Why did she wear the clothes of the eldest lady and pretend to be the eldest lady to deceive the eldest prince? ”
Zi Yan was very puzzled, looked at her directly, and asked, Xiu'er was not angry, and twisted her arm fiercely, and instantly pinched her jade-like skin red.
"Ah......h
Zi Yan screamed in surprise, but because it was pouring rain outside, and no one paid attention to what the two of them were doing, Xiu'er glared at her and raised her eyebrows: "You better not ask about the second lady's affairs, if something happens to you at that time, I can't protect you, more is better than less, you are just a subordinate, you should know what I mean." ”
“……”
Zi Yan lowered her head with an aggrieved face, and didn't dare to speak anymore, the weak figure shrank in the wind and rain, looking at Xiu'er's tall figure, and after walking away, she couldn't help but squat in place and hugged her knees and cried bitterly.
Doesn't the old lady care about this matter? Zi Yan bit her lip fiercely, and suddenly thought of Grandpa Guo who was sick in bed.
Zi Yan took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, so she ran in the wind and rain, ran to the restaurant in Shilipo, and saw Xiao Xue busy in the backyard and immediately ran in, Xiao Xue looked at Zi Yan who was wet, so she ran in recklessly, and quickly took a towel to wipe the rain on her hair.
"Why did you come here like this? Is there something big going on in the house? Xiaoxue looked at her and asked puzzled.
Zi Yan sobbed and sat aside, looked at her helplessly, and said, "What should I do now?" The second lady has now completely taken the place of the eldest lady, not only wearing her clothes, but also pretending to be her and serving the eldest prince, I can't touch the eldest prince, so there is no way to remind him at all......"
What do you mean by that? Take your time and don't rush. Xiao Xue soothed softly, poured a cup of ginseng tea and put it on the table, Zi Yan held the tea and felt the temperature of the cup, but her heart was cold.
After listening to her narration, Xiao Xue jumped up and down angrily, eager to rush directly to the Guogong Mansion and tell Zhong Yihan the truth of the matter, she sat aside angrily and took a breath and said, "Brother Shen will definitely go to the shopkeeper now." ”
"What then? There was such a big thing, and no one reminded him, although the eldest prince recruited me back to the Gongfu, but I didn't have any contact at all, even if I contacted the eldest prince, I was sleeping, and others couldn't disturb me, and the second lady sent people to stare at me every day, and there was no way to ventilate and report the news. ”
Xiaoxue took a deep breath, and finally knew why, she would agree with the shopkeeper to go to Cloud City to find a miracle doctor, I'm afraid that going to Cloud City is also a cover, if the shopkeeper really encounters any danger on the way to Cloud City, isn't it just as Mei Fangruo wanted?
"Don't panic Ziyan first, you should stay in the mansion now and find the right opportunity, if you can see the eldest prince, it is naturally good, even if you can't see you, don't be discouraged, I will find a way to quickly send someone to Cloud City to find the trace of the shopkeeper, maybe the matter of going to Cloud City is a scam in itself."
"What ......"
Zi Yan looked at her in disbelief, if going to Cloud City was really just a pretense, what if she encountered danger on the road?
Xiaoxue held her shoulder and said: "You go back now, don't let the people in the lotus courtyard be suspicious of you, they must know if you run out, if there is nothing particularly important in the future, you don't have to run out in person." ”
"But I feel like I'm flustered every day in there, and I don't want to go back......"
Zi Yan was very scared, afraid to see those hypocritical faces again, the eldest prince was kept in it without knowing it, and the old lady and the old man could only save themselves now.
"Don't worry, I have already sent people to be stationed in the Guogong Mansion, if there is something in the future, you can go to a teahouse called Lao Ash, and let him bring the news out, so that we can also get in touch."
"Okay, Sister Xiaoxue, then I'll listen to you, I'll go back first."
"Okay."
As soon as the picture turned, Donggong, Lu Ruoling had been inquiring about Lu Xiyi's news for the past few days, but he didn't expect Lu Xiyi to really run to Cloud City, looking at Bai Lan who came out from behind the screen, the corners of his mouth raised and said: "How is it Sister Bai Lan, have you gained any of the manpower sent out?" ”
"None of the people sent out came back alive, and there must have been a master to help them along the way......"
