Before, on the mountain, Mei Zijin saw Shui Qingqing fall from the carriage, and even watched her sensitively avoid the assassin's assassination.

And she rolled down from such a high mountain beam, not only was she able to survive safely, but she was also able to return to the mansion without incident, which made him even more impressed, and the more suspicious she was about her identity in his heart.

Hearing Mei Zijin ask, Sanshi's expression tightened, and he said in a deep voice: "My subordinates secretly visited the Sheng family, and they didn't find anything unusual. Those servants of the Sheng family all said that it was the third lady of their family who married into the Hou Mansion, but her temperament changed a lot after falling into the water......"

Temperament will change, but some of the body's instincts will not change!

Sheng Yu grew up in the deep boudoir, but Mei Zijin didn't believe that she had such a sensitive reaction speed.

Mo said that she was so agile to escape the pursuit of the assassins, but she was afraid that she would not be able to stand it just by falling off the mountain beam......

The more he thought about it, Mei Zijin's long eyebrows tightened, and the piercing chill on his body and the obvious stiffness in his limbs made him even more worried.

He gritted his teeth to endure the discomfort in his body, and said in a deep voice: "Immediately send someone to the Western Desert to find a witch doctor who can cure the poison of 'cold paralysis'—remember, this matter can only be done quietly, not exposed, and even the old lady is not allowed to tell it." ”

Sanshi was shocked when he heard this, he already thought of something in his heart, and looked at Mei Zijin with a blue face with wide eyes in horror, and said in disbelief: "Master, is it ......?"

Raising his hand to stop his words, Mei Zijin's eyes were full of ice and snow, and he said coldly: "Let's find out who did yesterday's assassination." ”

Thinking that Mei Zijin might have been poisoned by cold paralysis, Sanshi's heart was half cold, and after solemnly responding, he couldn't help but say again: "That...... Miss Sheng's matter, do you still want to investigate? ”

Looking coldly at the heavy snow that began to flutter outside, Mei Zijin said coldly: "You don't need to investigate this matter again, just do two other things!" ”

If this Sheng Yu who entered the mansion was fake, the Sheng family would definitely try their best to hide this matter, so it was better to let him ask her directly......

In order to celebrate Mei Zijin's safe return and to shock the people who were assassinated yesterday, the old lady set up a family banquet at the Shi'an Yuan at noon, leaving Mei Zijin and her daughters to have lunch in the Shi'an Hospital, and asked Shui Qingqing to come together.

Hou Mansion family banquet, Shui Qingqing didn't want to participate, because from beginning to end, she was not the 'family' of the Hou Mansion, coupled with Mei Zijin's ruthless appearance when she pushed her down the mountain beam, it had left a shadow in her heart, and now every time she saw him, she couldn't help but tremble, lest she avoid him.

But the old lady sympathized with her and was frightened yesterday, and she didn't let the people in the house look down on her, so she insisted on letting her go with her. She couldn't refuse, so she had to sit down.

The old lady sat in the middle of the first seat, Mei Zijin and Bai Lingwei accompanied the old lady on the left and right, the other three aunts sat down in turn, and Shui Qingqing sat at the bottom of the tail.

The sumptuous meal was set up on a large table, Bai Lingwei and the other three aunts scrambled to serve soup for the old lady and Mei Zijin cloth vegetables, but Shui Qingqing silently lowered her head and picked up the rice in the bowl, and even the dishes in front of her rarely used chopsticks to threaten them, and the other dishes never moved the chopsticks.

Under the open and secret battle of several aunts, Bai Lingwei finally attracted the attention of the old lady and Mei Zijin with Yun'er again, and successfully suppressed the other three aunts.

Looking at Bai Lingwei, who was proud of the spring breeze, and the aunt Tang Shi, who was sitting in the position under Mei Zijin, showed an angry sneer on her face, her eyes unintentionally turned to Shui Qingqing, who had been eating silently with her head down, and her light flashed, and she suddenly said slowly: "Why didn't the cousin of the Sheng family move the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, but he was scared when he got off the carriage yesterday and didn't come back to his senses?!" Speaking of which, Cousin Sheng is a great hero of our Hou Mansion, yesterday she helped Sister Bai, who was soft-legged, to send Yun Gongzi to the carriage safely, if there was no her, I was afraid of Yun Gongzi......

Tang's words successfully attracted the eyes of the old lady and Mei Zijin from Bai Lingwei.

Seeing this, she smiled proudly, turned around Shui Qingqing with a pair of wonderful eyes, and then spoke: "Cousin Sheng, after you risked your life to send Yun Gongzi to the carriage safely, why did you suddenly fall off the carriage?" ”

Tang's boudoir name is Qianqian, and as his name suggests, she is slender and enchanting, and her brain is flexible. was also quite favored by Mei Zijin before, but after Brother Yun was born, he was completely suppressed by Bai Lingwei, whose mother and son were expensive.

And what she said just now was just that she couldn't see Bai Lingwei talking about Brother Yun and showing off at the dinner table, wanting to divert Mei Zijin's eyes, but she didn't expect it to happen to reach the hearts of some people present.

Yes, it's so decent, why did Shui Qingqing suddenly fall off the carriage?

This question, not only Shui Qingqing himself doubted, but Mei Zijin and even Sanshi, who was driving the carriage at that time, had doubts in their hearts.

Therefore, with Tang Qianqian's words, Mei Zijin raised her eyes and looked coldly at the woman who had been silently bowing her head and saying nothing.

Tang Qianqian introduced the topic to herself without warning, but it made Shui Qingqing, who silently wanted to survive the family banquet, slightly stunned-

Although she knew in her heart that someone deliberately pushed her off the carriage yesterday, but now she has not found out who the black hand is, so without evidence and clues, how can she tell that she was framed when she fell off the carriage?! Isn't it a surprise to the snake?

Feeling the cold light from Mei Zijin's eyes, Shui Qingqing's mind didn't dare to restrain himself from thinking of the ruthless appearance of him pushing himself down the mountain beam again, his heart trembled, put down his chopsticks, lowered his head and whispered, "I...... I accidentally fell off before I could sit still......"

This answer was the same as everyone had guessed, and there was nothing new, so everyone withdrew their eyes and went their separate meals.

Shui Qingqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to pick up the chopsticks to continue picking up the rice in the bowl, but a soft voice sounded beside her.

"I'm curious, how did Sister Sheng escape the assassin's pursuit after she fell off the carriage yesterday?"

The whole body trembled, Shui Qingqing turned around in a panic, and faced Lan Qin, who was smiling gently.

Aunt Lan Qin and Bai Lingwei and others entered the mansion, although their background is not high, and their father only joined the army in Jingzhao Mansion at a young age, but he is full of talent and learning, and he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he is even more talented than Bai Lingwei, the young lady of the Hanlin family.

She sat there, like a gentle autumn chrysanthemum, her eyes were clear, and she said, "To tell the truth, I was surprised to see Cousin Sheng in the morning, after all, the situation was too dangerous. We all thought that Cousin Sheng was more than lucky, but we didn't expect Cousin Sheng to return safely - so, I'm really curious, how did Cousin Sheng turn evil into good luck and escape? ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience fell silent, and everyone's eyes gathered on Shui Qingqing again.

The hand holding the glass tightened, and the amber liquor reflected the cold eyes. The next moment, Mei Zijin raised his head and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.

The more he acted like a nobody, the more Shui Qingqing trembled, and the more chilled he was-

If she changed her previous personality and was bullied and mutilated by him like this, she would definitely not let him go.

But now for the sake of Yun'er, she has to temporarily gain a foothold in the Hou Mansion. And in order to gain a foothold, she dared to argue with Mei Zijin, let alone fight him head-on......

Suppressing the resentment in her heart, Shui Qingqing said in a panic: "I...... After I fell out of the carriage, I accidentally rolled down the hill while escaping...... Just...... I escaped and came back......"

Hearing this, the others sighed, but Mei Zijin smiled with almost inaudible hooked lips......

After the family banquet, Shui Qingqing did not leave in a hurry, but waited for everyone to disperse and took the initiative to kneel in front of the old lady.
