On both sides were the executioners, and the courtyard was surrounded by the Xia family's family and the people in the mansion, and on the steps sat Li Guifei, who was drinking tea leisurely, when her eyes were sharp and shot at them, Xia Qingyu subconsciously hid behind the old guard.

"Could it be that this eight or nine-year-old hairy kid is also an assassin?" I saw Concubine Li raise her eyebrows unhappily.

Zhang Baochong, the lord of the mansion, hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to plead guilty: "Concubine Li, please forgive me, even if I give me a big list, I don't dare to tease my mother." In fact, this child was caught after falling from a tree near the rain shelter bridge during the search scene, and for the sake of prudence, he was brought here. ”

"Oh......" Concubine Li smiled, "you get up first." "Concubine Xie Li." Zhang Baochong dared to get up, stretched out his sleeves and wiped the cold sweat that was scared.

"Bring the kids in." Hearing this, the old guard responded with a "yes", so he had to pull Xia Qingyu, who was hiding behind him, and pushed her in front of Concubine Li.

Xia Qingyu stood with her head down and looked very scared, but she was anxiously thinking about how to get out at this time.

"Child, you look up and let me see." Compared to before, the cold tone was different, and Concubine Li coaxed softly. The old guard poked behind her and signaled him to be obedient, and Xia Qingyu looked up at Concubine Li hesitantly.

I saw that Concubine Li, who was sitting in front of her, had a round face, pink and fair skin, a pair of peach blossom eyes that were soft and charming but with a bit of ruthlessness, and at the age of twenty-five, she looked like a nineteen-year-old girl, which was not inferior to Xia Qi Xia Xin. This is a woman who is favored by God, but Xia Qingyu doesn't like Concubine Li at all in her heart.

Seeing that the child's eyes were pure, pink and cute, and his facial features were small and delicate, Concubine Li was happy to see it and said to her personal maid Lily of the Valley: "Go get some pastries." Then he beckoned to Xia Qingyu and said, "Child, don't be afraid, come here." I'll give you some snacks to eat. Xia Qingyu had no choice but to take two steps forward. Seeing this, the old guard breathed a sigh of relief and stepped aside.

After a while, Lily of the Valley came up with a large plate of pastries, and Concubine Li grabbed two pieces from them, took Xia Qingyu's hand and put them in her palm: "Good boy, come, eat, this pastry is the best pastry in the palace."

Xia Qingyu looked at the pastry in her hand and was stunned, thinking that it would be poisonous, maybe she hadn't seen the prisoners below who were tortured by her to the point that she was not human, but she really thought that Concubine Li was a good person.

Seeing Xia Qingyuguang standing still, Lily of the Valley couldn't help but scold: "Bold slave, you don't kneel down to thank you for the reward of the noble concubine." When the words fell, Concubine Li sneered: "Bold and bold, are you dead when you are in this palace?" Come on, pull down the rod and kill it. ”

"The concubine spare her life! The slave knows that she is wrong, please spare her life......" Lily of the valley was so frightened that she suddenly knelt on the ground in horror, slapped her mouth straight, and kowtowed violently, crying and begging for mercy, "Please Niangniang forgive the slave for the sake of the slave and maid who have served you wholeheartedly for three years." The slave didn't dare anymore. ”

Concubine Li didn't even look at her, so she let people pull her down. The people in the garden listened to the mournful cry of the palace maid, and they were all frightened and frightened.

Master Xia couldn't bear to open his mouth to dissuade but was stopped by his wife, and finally opened his mouth and didn't say anything, so he just left.

Although Xia Qingyu's heart is bigger than ordinary people, but in the end, it is a child, and it is the first time to see such a very hot person, Li Guifei is a thousand times more vicious than the demon grandfather, and her heart is suddenly cold, she wants to withdraw her hand but can't, and her face is even paler.

Concubine Li smiled and coaxed Xia Qingyu to eat pastries as if nothing had happened, and Xia Qingyu had to eat slowly obediently. "What's your name, kid? How old are you? ”

"My name is Ye Yu." Xia Qingyu didn't want to reveal her identity, so she didn't say her real name, and used her mother's surname, even if her age was hidden, she lied that she was eight years old.

"Who else is in your family?" Xia Qingyu shook his head and said, "I'm an orphan." "Oh...... Good boy. Concubine Li reached out and touched his face affectionately, and continued to ask, "Why are you in the tree outside the rain bridge?"

"Watch the plays, those plays are so good!" Xia Qingyu praised sincerely. "Huh...... What's so good about those plays, when you go back to the palace with me, the real good shows have to be watched by you. Concubine Li said with a smile.

"Take her back to the palace?" Xia Qingyu was blindsided, she didn't want to go back to the palace with her, she had to go back to Moyin Valley to find Aunt Luo and Uncle Wu.

"Red Sleeves, take him down and settle him down."

"Yes, concubine." Xia Qingyu just wanted to open her mouth and say not to follow her to the palace, but she was firmly grasped and pulled away by the maid named Red Sleeves, so she had to swallow the words she was about to shout, and waited for an opportunity to flee depending on the situation.

When Xia Qingyu was dragged away, he heard the dull wails of the assassins in the distance, and the sneer of Concubine Li came from the end: "Okay, you Concubine Mei!" No matter how much you toss, you're just a nasty bitch. Zhang Baochong, dragged them all down and put them to death. Then she was dragged away.

The maid Red Sleeves led Xia Qingyu to a room, asked people to fetch water, took a new set of clothes to put down, and thought about taking off her clothes to help her take a bath.

However, Xia Qingyu refused to let her get close, saying that she wanted to wash herself, and the red sleeves finally had to compromise, she thought about the fate of Lily of the Valley because of this kid's tragic death, and she was terrified, and seeing that Concubine Li liked this child very much, if he was a little wrong, she would definitely die, so she didn't dare to force him too much.

After the red sleeves exited the door, Xia Qingyu first let out the little glass in his arms, and brought a plate of fruit from the table to feed it, which was almost starving all day.

After watching Xiao Liuli eat a full meal of fruit, Xia Qingyu told it to guard at the door again, and whined quietly if there was any sound.

Xiao Liuli is not an ordinary animal, she hears that her sense of sight and smell is extremely sensitive and very smart, so Xia Qingyu trusts it very much.

Xiao Liuli took the order and left, if it was changed to a weekday, he would have to bargain with his master, but he was a smart little fox who knew when to do the most thing.

Xia Qingyu took a hot bath comfortably because of the little fox guarding her, changed into a new set of clothes made of silk, and happily walked around the room a few times. After washing, Red Sleeves ordered someone to bring a sumptuous dish in and wait for Xia Qingyu to eat.

Xia Qingyu unceremoniously let go of her hands and feet to eat and drink, and was choked several times, so frightened that her red sleeves and face turned white, and she hurriedly gave her a back while shouting: "Oh, my mother, Ye Gongzi, you can eat slowly, and no one will rob you, it's not enough for me to let them add more." I can't choke myself to death. If something happens to you, I can't afford it, Sister Lily of the Valley is ......" said and choked with sobs, and couldn't help tears falling down.

When Xia Qingyu heard this, she felt faintly guilty in her heart, listened to the words of the red sleeves, and slowly ate it. Seeing that Xia Qingyu listened to his words, Red Sleeves couldn't help but rejoice, and a smile regained on his face: "That's right." What a good boy. After Xia Qingyu ate well, Red Sleeves served him to sleep again.
