Ling Yuxin frowned when she heard this, and couldn't help but feel a little worried: how to explain to Cui Han so that she could understand and be willing to take all the maids to learn martial arts and train together? After pondering for a while, she looked up at Cui Han Zhengse and said, "Do you know why there are always Royal Forest Army handles outside?" ”

Cui Han immediately shook her head, and nodded again after a moment,

Ling Yuxin couldn't help but ask, "Cui Han, why are you shaking your head and nodding again, do you know or don't know?" ”

Cui Han hesitated for a moment, and confessed: "The slave doesn't know, because Uncle Quan has explained to everyone, just do your own work, take care of the lord and the young lady, no one is allowed to ask, mention, or inquire about other things in private, as for the people outside, just treat them as if they don't exist." ”

Ling Yuxin was stunned for a moment, and then realized that it was Ling Fengyang who wanted to protect her and didn't want people to inquire and discuss privately and cause unnecessary rumors, so she let Uncle Quan do this, but thinking that Cui Han nodded clearly just now, she asked puzzledly: "Then why did you nod again just now?" ”

Cui Han was silent for a moment, then bit her lower lip, as if she had made a big decision, and said seriously: "Although Uncle Quan didn't let us ask, but in fact, we all know in our hearts that those people are guarding Miss You, the Queen Mother is really too much, she said that she was only grounded for two years, and now that the two-year period has expired, although she released you from the Twilight Villa, she still refused to give you back your freedom, and grounded you in the mansion again, this is clearly not lifted in disguise, she is still the Queen Mother, how can she go back on her word!" ”

Ling Yuxin couldn't help but smile and asked, "How do you know that they are guarding outside to confine me in the mansion?" ”

"Miss, the slave maid followed you in and out of the palace, the slave maid who commanded the Imperial Forest Army still recognized it, the one outside the door was clearly Wei Chifeng who escorted you to the Twilight Villa, and he was also the younger brother of the Queen Mother, he only sent you back with the front foot, and the back foot ran to see you and didn't let you out of the house, that's not the Queen Mother, she knew that you were back, and she regretted it, so she sent her brother to continue to watch you, and wanted to ground you in the house! She is too much, she has caused you to lose your freedom for two years, you have been locked up in that mountain villa for two years, and you have lost your memory because of this, the slave maid can't think about how you spent two years alone in that remote mountain villa, but the queen mother still refuses to let you go, it's really hateful. The more Cui Han spoke, the more angry she became, and the more she thought about it, the more sad she became, and her eyes were a little wet.

Although Ling Yuxin felt a little crying and laughing at Cui Han's speculation, she was still deeply moved in her heart when she saw her so sad and angry about herself, and she was suddenly able to understand why she was so sad when she was not close to her before, so she secretly decided not to deliberately alienate her in the future.

As soon as she thought of this, she stepped forward and took Cuihan's hand and said sincerely: "Cuihan, thank you for your concern, in fact, I have had a good life in the past two years, you don't have to be sad and sad for me anymore." ”

The moment Ling Yuxin held her hand, Cui Han suddenly lowered her head and stared at Ling Yuxin's hand in surprise, and after a while, she raised her head again and stared at Ling Yuxin, her expression was not only surprised, but also seemed to be extremely sad and self-blamed.

Ling Yuxin saw Cui Han staring at herself with such a look and didn't speak, guessing that she didn't believe that she said that she had a good past two years, and said busily and affirmatively: "Really, I really have a good life, I haven't suffered anything, and I haven't suffered any grievances, as for Wei Chifeng, who was guarding outside, this time it was not the Queen Mother who sent me to confine me in the mansion, but the Emperor sent me to protect me." ”

Cui Han glanced at Ling Yuxin's hand again, and suddenly burst into tears, Ling Yuxin and Bai Zhu were both startled, and they looked at each other on the ground.

I only heard Cui Han crying and sobbing and said, "Miss, you don't have to lie to the slave maid, the slave knows that you must have suffered a lot and suffered a lot of grievances." ”

Ling Yuxin suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, but seeing that Cui Han was crying more and more, she became more and more sad, so she had to take a silk handkerchief out first and wipe Cui Han's tears while comforting: "No, Cui Han, I didn't lie to you, I really lived well, I didn't suffer hardship, I didn't suffer any grievances, I really ......" Seeing some comfort, Cui Han still didn't have any tendency to stop crying, Ling Yuxin turned to say, "Oh, Cui Han, don't cry, I still have important things to tell you, I can't tell you if you cry like this, don't cry, don't cry, Don't cry......"

When Cui Han heard this, she immediately took the handkerchief in Ling Yuxin's hand and wiped her tears, tried to stop crying, and nodded, "Well, the slave doesn't cry, Miss, if you have any important things, just give orders, the slave and maid will definitely do it." ”

Ling Yuxin then said: "Cuihan, I didn't lie to you, Wei Chifeng who was guarding the door was indeed not sent by the Queen Mother to guard me, but sent by the emperor to protect me, and I was not grounded in the mansion, I can go out at any time, and they will definitely not stop me, but they will always follow, in order to protect me closely." ”

Cui Han was still a little unconvinced, thought for a while and asked, "Miss, you said that they were sent by the emperor to protect you, so why did the emperor suddenly send someone to protect you?" And you want to send the queen mother's younger brother? ”

Ling Yuxin said solemnly: "I don't know very well why the emperor sent the queen mother's younger brother to protect me, but the emperor suddenly sent someone to protect me because someone wanted to kill me. ”

Cui Han's eyes widened in surprise.

Ling Yuxin continued, "On our way back to Beijing, we encountered several groups of assassins, but thanks to the protection of my cousin and the many guards led by Commander Li and Wei Chifeng, I was able to return safely. ”

Cui Han asked in surprise, "How many times!" Miss, is someone really trying to kill you? But how could anyone want to kill you? Who is going to kill you? ”

Ling Yuxin said indifferently: "The questions you asked are actually what I want to know. ”

Cui Han was stunned for a moment, and then muttered, "How can this be? So what to do? Isn't it possible for you to be in danger at any time, miss? Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, he complained with a slight dissatisfaction: "But why did the emperor send Wei Chifeng to protect you?" He is the Queen Mother's person at all, he is the Queen Mother's own brother, the Queen Mother has always disliked you, how can her brother do his best to protect you. ”

Ling Yuxin subconsciously frowned when she heard this, and asked curiously, "You said that the Queen Mother has never liked me?" Why? ”

Cui Han was stunned again, and replied frankly: "This slave doesn't know, the slave only knows that Miss, you have been very liked by the first emperor since you were a child, but the Empress Dowager Wei ...... That is, the queen at that time was just the opposite, she always disliked you, and even ...... It can even be said that I hate you very much, the slave remembers that when I accompanied you into the palace before, every time I met her, she never gave you a good face, and her speech was very ugly, and she also punished you more than once, the most hateful thing is that the reason why she punished you is not a reason at all, in fact, it is just some small things, but she deliberately punished you very hard. "Ah, by the way, miss, you actually know the reason," and after a pause, he corrected again, "No, you yourself should have known the reason before you lost your memory." ”

Ling Yuxin looked at Cui Han suspiciously.

Cui Han saw Ling Yuxin's expression, and immediately consciously explained: "That's the case, the slave maid remembers that at the beginning, the slave maid also asked you, 'Why the queen...... Is it the current Empress Dowager Wei who always wants to target you? Have you ever offended her? Why does she seem to hate you? ......'At first, every time the slave mentioned this to you, you were also very angry and aggrieved, and you would discuss and recall with the slave and maid to see if you had inadvertently offended her, but then ...... The slave and maid can't remember exactly when, in short, once you were punished by the queen mother again, and then when the slave and maid mentioned these things to you again, you immediately interrupted the slave and maid very unhappily, and asked the slave and maid not to ask these questions again in the future, and not to mention this matter again, and then ......" Cuihan suddenly stopped,

Ling Yuxin asked curiously, "What happened later?" Why don't you go on? ”

Cui Han hesitated.

Seeing this, Ling Yuxin said: "Cui Han, although you tell the truth, don't have any worries, I don't remember anything now, if you don't say it, I will naturally not know, on the contrary, if you tell me more about the past things you know, maybe it can help me recover my memory as soon as possible." ”

When Cui Han heard that it could help Ling Yuxin recover her memory, she no longer hesitated, and said bluntly: "And later, Miss, you seem to have slowly changed, so the slave guessed that you should know the reason why Empress Dowager Wei always targeted you, and you should have known it at that time." ”

Ling Yuxin was even more curious: "What do you mean by saying that I slowly changed later?" ”

Cui Han thought for a while, "The slave and the maid can't say it clearly, in short, the slave and the maid later felt that you were slowly becoming different from the original, for example, when you didn't know why the Empress Dowager Wei was always targeting you, you were actually a little afraid of her at first, but you would still find a way to please her, and you would be very respectful when you saw her, and you also tried to bring some delicious pastries into the palace to give it to her, but these practices didn't seem to work, she didn't appreciate your affection at all, and she still targeted you everywhere, so for a while after that, you tried to avoid her." , Every time you enter the palace, where to go, before you go, you will think carefully about it, and you will deliberately try to avoid her, but later, it is the slave maid who thinks that you should know the reason, you become different, you will never deliberately avoid her when you enter the palace again, and you will no longer be respectful when you see her, and you can often anger her when you say something, and the slave and maid even feel that sometimes you seem to deliberately want to meet her, deliberately want to anger her, the most surprising thing for the slave is that you and her seem to be a little reversed, You don't fear her at all, but she seems to be avoiding you a little, and later, the slave finds that every time she sees you from a distance, she immediately turns around and leaves. ”
