Chapter 49: Empty Lament (1)
、、、、、、、、、、
The sunny sunny sky was suddenly cloudy, the whole sky was black and oppressive, but the morning was as dark as the middle of the night, the thunder hit the eardrums like a dense drum, the lightning thunderbolt shone half of the sky, and the big trees in the garden looked a little hideous and terrifying under the electric light.
"Second girl, let's go inside, it looks like there will be a heavy rain later." Lingyu looked at Chu Jian who was standing in the corridor outside the door, her eyes were very worried, since the concubine came to find the second girl the day before, the second girl has been silent and silent, and she doesn't know what she is thinking.
Bang - a thunderbolt flashed in the sky, and when I saw the first time, my mouth was faintly raised, and I sighed slightly, "Did you find out what was the cause of the fire in Jingrongzhai yesterday?" ”
Lingyu was startled by the thunderbolt, she looked at the second girl who looked very pale under the electric light, "I heard that someone deliberately set the fire, but what are the details, but there is no public announcement, second girl, go back to the house." ”
When I first saw my eyelids, I lowered my answer, turned around and slowly walked into the house, Lingyu and Ziyao hurriedly closed the windows, and in less than a moment, the heavy rain poured down outside, and the sound of rustling rain was like who was crying, and it sounded so sad.
She...... What should I do?
Help Chun Yuyan leave Ningcheng? Or refuse Qi Jin's request? Whichever one it was, she had a reason to refuse, but she couldn't open her mouth, and if she agreed, it would be very unwise, and she ...... Never an irrational person.
Yesterday, Qi Jin sent someone to send her a letter, and the letter was nothing more than saying that if she didn't help Chun Yuyan, no one would help him anymore.
She doesn't know the story between Qi Jin and Chun Yuyan, but morality aside, Qi Jin's feelings for Chun Yuyan are enough to move all hard-hearted people, Qi Jin's love is selfish, her life is only open to Chun Yuyan, Qi Jin can bet everything for Chun Yuyan, but she can't, she can't let the Zhongwang Mansion and the Yu family fall into a desperate situation because she is moved.
"Lingyu, does the concubine still have a letter today?" Chu Jian supported his forehead with one hand, leaned back on the teacher's chair, looked at Lingyu who was folding his clothes, and asked in a low voice.
Lingyu replied, "No, but I'm afraid this kind of weather won't come." ”
Chu Jian raised his eyelashes slightly, "This rain will stop after a while, if the concubine sends a letter, let the person take it back as it is." ”
In summer, there are many thundershowers, and if you look at the heavy rain showers outside, it will stop after a while.
Lingyu was surprised, she didn't know what happened between the concubine and the second girl, but she used to think that the second girl liked the concubine very much, why is she a little indifferent to the concubine now? "Yes, second girl."
Chu Jian paused for a moment, and then asked, "Are you still crying these days?" ”
Recently, for some reason, Yu Heng always cries in the middle of the night, his mother often can't sleep in the middle of the night in order to take care of him, when this child first came to the Yu family, he was not afraid of life at all, and he got along very well with the jade lord and Mrs. Yu, and when he saw the first time, he would also call his sister sweetly, and the exquisite and lovely appearance made the jade mansion very lovely, but today he was a little short-tempered for some reason, and he didn't pay attention to anyone, and he was only in Mrs. Yu's arms every day, and no one could hold him.
Chu Xiang didn't have much feeling for this younger brother, but she has always liked children, and she loves him very much, but maybe because of Yu Yunsheng's relationship, this kind of love is somewhat estranged.
"Madame invited a doctor for the young master, saying that the young master has heat in his body, and he can drink a few pieces of medicine." Lingyu replied with a smile.
Chu saw a slight chin at the beginning, "This little guy is really tormenting, that Yu Yunsheng didn't want to take his son himself, but left people to his mother, but he himself was quiet." "I feel sorry for Mrs. Yu's tiredness, and it is difficult not to complain about Yu Yunsheng when I first see her.
"Second girl, it's better to be careful with this kind of talk, you also know that the master now treats the young master as a treasure, and it will not be good if someone listens to it and chews the root of his tongue." Lingyu hurriedly glanced at the first sight, although the eyebrows were all his own people, but he still had to be careful that the wall had ears.
Leaving no trace at first sight snorted coldly, Yu Yunsheng and Mrs. Yu seemed to be slowly repairing their relationship because of this Yu Heng, and they no longer respected each other as much as before, during this time, Yu Yunsheng often spent the night in Xiuhe Courtyard, and I heard that he never went to Huaichun Courtyard again.
Lingyu seemed to be a little unhappy when she saw it for the first time, so she didn't dare to say more, the house fell into silence, only the occasional sound of the wind, I don't know how long it took, the rustling and rain outside gradually became smaller, and the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and a touch of golden light squeezed through the thick clouds, and a ray of light appeared.
"The rain has stopped outside." Zi Yao pushed open the window and smiled.
When she first looked up, she saw that the leaves outside the window looked more verdant after being washed by the heavy rain, and the air was fresh with a faint smell of wet earth, so she stood up, "I'll go out for a walk." ”
Lingyu and Ziyao put down their work, "Second girl, let's go with you." ”
Hatsumi stopped them from coming, "I'm just walking around here, and I'm not going out anywhere, are you still worried that I'm lost?" I want to walk around alone, you guys stay here. ”
Lingyu and Ziyao looked at each other, and could only rely on the second girl, "Then the second girl, you be careful of slipping." ”
Hatsumi smiled at them and walked out.
In fact, she didn't know where she wanted to go, she came out of the Eyebrow Garden, and walked all the way to Yuanxin Lake, the corners of her skirt were already stained with mud and rain, and she didn't know what she was worried about, but she felt that many things were pressing on her heart and felt very uncomfortable, but she didn't know who she could talk to, if she let Mrs. Yu know that the concubine asked her to help Chun Yuyan, she didn't know if Mrs. Yu would do anything to the concubine, and Qi Zhen ...... In fact, another reason why I hesitated to help the concubine at first sight was Qi Zhen.
She...... I can't bear to embarrass Qi Zhen!
But if Chun Yuyan can't get out of Ningcheng, I'm afraid that it will really be difficult to escape death, how can she bear it?
Hey, it's useless to think about these things at this time, since she has already planned to return Qi Jin's letter untouched, Qi Jin should be able to understand the meaning.
"Second girl, I finally found you." Chu Jian sighed, and when he turned around and was about to continue walking, he saw Xia Yu running panting.
"Xia Yu?" Chu Jian raised his eyebrows lightly and looked at Xia Yu.
"Second girl, Madame asked you to go to Xiuhe Courtyard." Xia Yu saluted the first sight, and said breathlessly, when she went to the Eyebrow Garden, she heard Lingyu say that the second girl had only come out for a while, and she chased it out, but it took a long time to find the second girl.
"I know, I'll go." I think she hadn't seen Madame Jade for a few days.
When I first saw that I wiped off the general soil with a handkerchief, I came to Xiuhe Courtyard with Xia Yu, and before I entered the house, I heard Yu Heng's crisp laughter at first sight.
"Mother" walked into the inner room for the first time, Mrs. Yu sat on the chair with a soft expression, Yu Heng was on the soft couch, Li Niang and another Aunt Wang who took care of Yu Heng were teasing him, the little guy smiled happily, saw the first time he came in, and hurriedly wanted to jump off the soft couch, "Sister, sister ......"
Madame Yu smiled softly at Chu Mi, "He has been thinking about you for the past few days." ”
Chu Jian gently pinched Yu Heng's fair and ruddy cheeks, "Stinky Xiao, I heard that you have always been disobedient these days, which makes your mother tired, right?" ”
Yu Heng flattened his mouth, and his voice was delicate and coquettish, "No." ”
"None? So who cries all the time at night? Chujian smiled and rubbed his hair, this child is very smart, could it be that Yu Yunsheng loves him very much, almost the same as his own son at that time.
"Sister, Heng cried only when he had a terrible dream at night, and it was gone last night, I don't believe you asked my mother." Yu Heng took the hand of the first meeting and staggered to Mrs. Yu's side, "Mother, tell my sister quickly, Heng is very well-behaved." ”
Mrs. Yu smiled, "Heng is very well-behaved, there is no disobedience, Heng first went out with Aunt Wang, and my mother had something to say to my sister." ”
Heng flattened his mouth, "Yes, Mother." ”
Aunt Wang came over to pick up Heng, bowed to Mrs. Yu, and went out, "Young master, let's go outside and come on." ”
Mrs. Yu glanced at Li Niang, and Li Niang walked out willingly, put down the bamboo curtain in the inner room, and let the girls who were working outside go out.
Seeing such a posture, Chu Jian felt a little uneasy, "Mother, what's wrong?" ”
Madame Yu glanced meaningfully at Hatsumi, and motioned for Hatsumi to sit down on the chair opposite, "Sit down." ”
I couldn't help but wonder what had happened and why my mother had a heavy face.
"The first time I saw you, the concubine came to you, what did she say to you?" Madame Jade glanced at the first sight with sharp eyes, and asked softly in her voice.
When I first saw my heart, I lowered my eyelashes and said softly, "Also...... Didn't say anything, just gossip. ”
Madam Yu was silent for a moment, and then said sharply, "She asked you to help Chun Yuyan get out of the city?" ”
When I first saw my face pale, how could my mother know?
Madam Yu was just guessing, but when she saw her face for the first time, her expression became solemn, "Sure enough!" ”
"Mother, ...... you" was wide-eyed at first sight, did mother know Chun Yuyan's identity?
Madame Yu sighed, "It seems that you already know about Concubine and Chun Yuyan?" ”
Hatsumi nodded stiffly, she knew everything she should know, but she didn't know how much her mother knew.
"In that case, you should also know that this matter is not trivial, how can you help a little girl who says to help." Madame Jade glanced at the first sight and said softly.
"Mother, I didn't agree, and I also know that this matter is widely implicated, but the concubine will not die because of this." When she first saw her, she didn't help, it didn't mean that Qi Jin would die, if Qi Jin took the risk to rescue Chun Yuyan, she was afraid that Zhongwangfu would be affected by her at that time.
Madam Yu said, "It's best if you didn't agree, as for the concubine...... I'm afraid I've received the news now. ”
"What do you mean?" Hatsumi suddenly looked up at Madame Jade.
"Last night at the city gate, Chun Yuyan was found by soldiers, and then fled into Jingrong Zhai, this morning in a courtyard of Jingrong Zhai, which has become a ruin, found two corpses, a woman and a man, the appearance is unrecognizable, but the man's left hand tail finger has Chun Yuyan wearing a jade ring, he ...... He has lost his life in the flames. Mrs. Yu said in a low voice, her eyes were strange, I don't know what she was thinking, she talked about the jade pendant worn by Chun Yuyan, there was a faint smile on her lips, whether the tail finger ring on the male corpse was the purple jade ring of Chun Yuyan, I am afraid that only he knows.
When I heard it for the first time, I felt a chill rise from the soles of my feet, and my face was pale, and it was difficult to accept it for a while.
