Xia Zixian was taken aback and hurriedly rushed over, wanting to rescue her.

Only then did she exclaim: "Zixian, save me." ”

Xia Zixian hurriedly pulled the vines on Xia Ziwu's hands and feet, but her strength was too small, and she was helpless.

At this time, more vines poured out from all directions, swept in the direction of the two sisters, like pythons, quickly roaming the ground, but in the blink of an eye, the two sisters who had lost their faces were tightly bound.

The two struggled in panic, who knew that the more they struggled, the more they struggled, the more they suffocated, and they couldn't breathe.

"Help!"

Xia Zixian shouted in panic.

Outside the house, hurried footsteps sounded, and someone shouted, "There's a thief in the flower hall, go and inform the young lady." ”

The door of the house was wide open, and someone broke in from the outside, surrounding the two sisters on the ground in the middle, but they only watched from the sidelines and did not help: "If you really recruit a thief, this time it is still two female snitches." ”

"We are not thieves, we are guests of your young lady." Xia Zixian hurriedly defended, panting, and begged the onlookers: "Hurry up and save me, I'm about to lose my breath." ”

The subordinates all looked disdainful and looked at the two of them with disdain: "If Miss doesn't come, we can't make our own decisions." If you don't move, the vine will relax a little bit. ”

The two of them no longer struggled according to the words, and only then did they feel that the strength of the vine gradually decreased, and they were no longer so painful.

"Miss is here!"

When outsiders spread the news, they listened to the ringing bell, and many warblers and swallows poured into the house together.

One of the first two is tall, with a high nose and phoenix eyes, sharp cheeks and thin lips, and a sharp face, while the other is more petite, with apricot eyes and cherry lips, three points of innocence and seven points of arrogance.

The two of them walked to Xia Zixian and Xia Ziwu like the stars and the moon.

The apricot woman glanced at the two people tied to the ground, sighed and shook her head in disappointment.

And the phoenix-eyed woman glanced at the coral tree, and snorted coldly: "Such bold, she actually stole into my prime minister's mansion, searched out the stolen goods, and handed them over directly to the yamen." ”

The women behind him were discussing: "It's still a woman, her hands and feet are so unclean, it's shameful to die." ”

"That's it, it's the first time I've seen a female thief."

Xia Zixian hurriedly argued: "We are not thieves, we were invited by Miss Yue to come to the house as guests." ”

The phoenix-eyed woman was condescending, and sneered again: "I invited it?" Joke, how do I know you? ”

A few people behind him burst into laughter.

It turned out that this phoenix-eyed woman was Miss Qianjinyue of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Xia Zixian hurriedly said: "Miss Yue, you sent an invitation to our house and invited us to enjoy the Hundred Flowers Banquet. ”

Miss Yue stretched out her hand at her: "Where's the invitation?" ”

"As soon as you enter the door, it will be handed over to the concierge of your house."

The apricot-eyed woman pouted: "The invitation card has a handwritten font written by Miss Yue herself, and you actually handed it over to your subordinates?" Aren't you afraid of any bad misunderstandings in the future? ”

Someone behind him echoed: "Lord Luo Bingjun is right, which savage is this?" Don't even understand this truth? ”

This apricot-eyed woman turned out to be the famous Lord Luo Bing, no wonder she was full of arrogance and dared not look at her.

Xia Zixian hurriedly spoke up, with a bit of humility in her words: "Back to the county lord, we are from the Xia Shilang Mansion of the Household Department, and we are really not thieves." ”

The apricot-eyed woman bent down, glanced at Xia Zixian, and sighed: "I have seen Miss Xia Ansheng of the Xia family, and you also want to pretend?" ”

"Xia Ansheng, that's my second sister."

Miss Yue and Lord Luo Bing glanced at each other: "It turned out to be the daughter of Xia Shilang who was originally raised outside, no wonder she is so shameless." Is my prime minister's house a place for people like you to enter? ”

There was a snickering behind him. There are many people who tend to be inflammatory, and they immediately follow and discuss.

"That is, don't think that if you enter the door of her Xia family, you can turn into a phoenix, this background can't be changed."

"I heard that her mother was originally just a broken household, and I don't know how she hooked up with Xia Shilang in the first place, and she actually raised her as a steproom."

"I'm afraid you don't know, a few days ago, Xia Shilang had an accident and was imprisoned, and I heard that the third lady of their house has been staying in the Meng Mansion and not leaving, even if her mother is seriously ill and sent someone to invite her, she insists on refusing to come back. In the end, it was the Meng family who sent her back in a carriage. It's like a wolf's heart, greedy for power, and throwing his father and mother aside. ”

"Really? How do you know? ”

"It has long been spread in the capital, I didn't believe it at first, and I specially asked Miss Meng, I know that it is even more unbearable than this."

Everyone said a word, and I said a word, but they showed no mercy at all, and the words became more and more difficult to hear.

Xia Zixian and Xia Ziwu on the ground were blue and red for a while, and they were so ashamed that they couldn't afford to dig into the ground.

A noble girl turned her face and asked Miss Yue: "How did you invite them over this time, and having a relationship with this kind of person has tarnished our reputation." ”

Miss Yue pouted: "I invited her Xia Ansheng." Who knows what they're going to do? ”

Xia Ziwu has a weak heart, has not said a word, and does not dare to say the words prepared in advance, lest it will be self-defeating, the relationship will not be provoked, and then anger everyone.

How could Xia Zixian ever suffer such humiliation?

She held back her tears and said softly: "My second sister has something to do today, let the two of us come and say thank you to Miss Yue." ”

Lord Luo Bing snorted softly: "I'm afraid that people's eyes are above the top, and they don't know what their surname is, so they don't bother to make friends with us, right?" ”

Miss Yue also snorted lightly from the end of her nose: "No matter how much Yu Shizi lifts her, she can't change her identity." It's just a daughter in the squire's house, what is there to be proud of? ”

Everyone was talking about An Sheng again, flattering Lord Luo Bing, leaving the Xia family sisters on the ground and ignoring them.

Xia Zixian only felt that the ground was cold, and the blood in her hands and feet was not gone, and she was a little cold, so she begged with good words: "Since it was a misunderstanding, Miss Yue, please quickly order someone to loosen the ties for the two of us, right?" ”

One sentence diverted everyone's attention again.

"Misunderstanding? I don't think so, right? ”

Miss Yue bent down and stretched out her hand at her: "Hand over the things that stole from me first, and naturally let the two of you go." ”

"What's that?" Xia Zixian was a little surprised: "What am I doing stealing your things?" ”

Miss Yue straightened up and sighed lightly: "Since you don't want to admit it, then I can't help it, you two just stay here all the time." ”

Xia Zixian endured the disdainful gaze of everyone around her, bit her lower lip tightly, and said aggrievedly: "I really don't know what you are talking about? How could I dare to steal something from the Prime Minister's Mansion? ”

"If you hadn't stolen anything, how could you have touched the mechanism of this man-trapping vine?"

"Trapper vine?" Xia Zixian glanced down at the vines on her body, her face still pale.

Lord Luo Bing pointed to the coral tree next to him: "We all know that this coral tree is inlaid with one hundred and eight night pearls, each of which is priceless, so there are always people who want to steal when they see wealth."

Therefore, in order to prevent thieves, the Prime Minister planted the trapping vines that he had painstakingly found around. As long as someone comes forward to dig up the Night Pearl and touches the mechanism, it will trigger the trapping vine and capture the person. If you two had not been thieves, this vine would not have bound you both. ”

"I didn't!" Xia Zixian denied it without thinking, and then turned to Xia Ziwu: "Third sister, are you touching this coral tree?" ”

Xia Ziwu was in full view, if she admitted that she had stolen the night pearl from the coral tree, she was afraid that she would be ridiculed and ruin her reputation, so she said stiffly: "How can I be? ”

Miss Yue just snorted coldly: "This trap of the trapping vine needs to be returned to the stolen night pearl before it can be activated. If you don't admit it, forget it, stay honest here. If the trapper is hungry for a while, he may strangle the two of you to make flower fertilizer. ”

These words made Xia Zixian and Xia Ziwu suddenly shocked.

Xia Zixian twisted her face and asked Xia Ziwu angrily: "If you really take the pearl, you will return it to others quickly." ”

Xia Ziwu was also suddenly frightened, and stammered, "I...... I really want to touch it just because it's fun. Who knows, it will fall off at the first touch. ”

This is called wanting to cover up, covering your ears and stealing the bell, and everyone in the audience is clear.

Xia Zixian was ashamed and angry when she heard that her hands and feet were really unclean, and she was so tall and tall in Pingsuli, but today she was surrounded and ridiculed, just like watching a monkey, can you not be annoyed?

"Where are the beads? Hurry up and return it to Miss Yue! ”

Xia Ziwu struggled carefully twice, and suddenly a pearl slipped from her cuff and rolled on the ground twice before she stopped.

"Ah, she really stole it!" Someone exclaimed: "Why are you so shameless?" In the future, everyone should pay attention to her a little bit, and be careful that everything in their house is taken away. ”

"The daughters of the Xia family are really all extraordinary, since ancient times, they have opened the world, I'm afraid I haven't heard of that young lady with unclean hands and feet, right?"

"I heard that the Xia family is in decline, and Mrs. Xia was deceived by her own brother some time ago, and even the house and shop were all staked out. Now the Xia family is just an empty shell. ”

"I see, no wonder when I go to other people's homes as guests, I don't forget to make a fortune."

"Originally, it was a broken household, this kind of thing is not ashamed but proud, and the habit is engraved in the bones. And he has no knowledge, it is not surprising that his eyes must be hot when he sees these luxurious objects in Miss Yue's home. ”

Verbal swords.

The sarcastic words recklessly destroyed what little dignity the two sisters had left.

Miss Yue winked, and a subordinate stepped forward behind her, picked up the beads on the ground, and walked around the coral tree to put it back in place.

As if commanded, the vine slowly let go of the two of them, then snaked back and faded away.
