Chapter 48: Liao's (I)

The eldest lady listened to Steward Huo. I didn't care not to split my head and asked, "Did you hear it?" Is it the Duchess of Anguo? ”

Steward Huo nodded and said, "I asked a few times, and they all said that it was Duchess Anguo's personal maid." ”

The eldest lady was taken aback, "Isn't Duchess An Guo with the second and third rooms?" So you really encountered a chaotic party? ”

The eldest lady looked at the messy backyard again, the small courtyard where the fourth aunt lived was on fire and really burned here, but fortunately, the people suppressed the fire in time, and the eldest lady explained the backyard to the housekeeper, and asked Yaohua to send Mrs. Cai to Jiangxuexuan to rest, and finally called Chen's mother, "Come with me to the front door to have a look." ”

Chen's mother didn't know what to do, but the eldest lady told her about it, and Chen's mother panicked.

The eldest lady said, "I'll ask after I go over." ”

The eldest lady hurried to the front door with Chen's mother, and the little maid in front of the door hurriedly came over and replied: "The maid who came to knock on the door was talking just now, and now there is no sound to ask." ”

The eldest lady walked over and made the little maid scream a few more times, and there was silence on the other side of the door.

What the hell is going on?

The little guy said: "I heard what the maid said just now, she was injured, and now I'm afraid it's ......."

Chen's mother said, "What can I do? ”

The eldest lady gritted her teeth, maybe there is a traitor in front of the mansion now, as long as the door is opened, the traitor will rush in. But if she doesn't open the door, the second and third rooms will be in danger, not to mention, Duchess Anguo...... Not only is there no hope for Wu Muhou's family affairs, but the relationship with Wu Muhou's mansion will be ...... in the future

The eldest lady weighed for a long time, and then asked the steward to send someone up the ladder to look outside the door of the house, and the little maid said: "Except for the courtyard where the fourth aunt is recuperating and the fire, it seems that there is no one here." ”

The eldest lady called a few housekeepers to wait, in case a thief broke in, everyone flocked to it, and it would not necessarily suffer, and then let the little maid open the door.

Only then did the two young men in Tsing Yi step forward and remove the latch and slowly open the door. No sooner had the door opened than someone fell in with the panel.

In the 24th year of Jingde, on November 5, there was a person in Beijing who called the Seven Princes of the former dynasty, gathered the remnants of the former dynasty and joined with Chen Qing, the deputy general under the command of Su Xiyao, the general of Jianwei, to plot to raise a fire to revolt on the fifth watch on November 7.

Among the chaotic parties, there are many bandits and thieves who take advantage of the chaos to commit theft and robbery, and there are not a few people who have been affected in the mansions of large families in the capital and the pedestrians and carriages.

Such an emergency, the location is in Beijing again, I am afraid it is rare to encounter it once in a century. gave people a surprise, those thieves saw the carriage of the Duke of Anguo, and naturally refused to let go, but fortunately, the Duchess of Anguo traveled with a lot of guards. Only by luck escaped while blocking the road, the Duchess of Anguo and the second and third masters of the Tao family were separated and injured, and they were afraid that they could not resist the chaos again, so they could only temporarily find a hidden place to hide, and the Duchess of An Guo sent her personal maid Ruxuan back to Wumuhou's Mansion to report the news, and there was a troublemaker on the road to Wumuhou's Mansion, Ruxuan had no other way, so she came to Taofu for help.

Ruxuan was injured when she escaped, and after the eldest lady ordered someone to carry her into the house, she finally woke her up.

The eldest lady asked the Duchess of Anguo again, the hiding places of the second and third rooms of the Tao family, and hurriedly calculated the people in the house, selected a few suitable candidates, and took the things to save people.

The second old man Tao Zhengqian, the second wife Wang, the seventh miss, the ninth miss, and the eleventh miss were escorted back first, and the eldest lady was busy asking Yaohua and Ronghua to arrange a few young ladies to go to her room to rest, the second master Tao Zhengqian was slightly injured, Wang was so frightened that his face turned pale, and several young ladies were even more cold hands and feet, and they were trembling.

Yaohua took Miss Seven, and Rong Hua took Miss Nine and Miss Eleven to his residence. asked Mu Hibiscus to hurriedly make a cup of hot tea for the two young ladies to drink.

When Miss Seven and Miss Eleven saw Rong Hua for the first time, they should have been rusty, but at this time, they couldn't take care of this anymore.

finally got out of danger and met his relatives, and the most sincere family affection in his heart was stimulated.

Miss Nine Qiao Hua drank two glasses of water in a row, stroked her chest and said, "It's really scared to death." ”

Miss Eleven also said: "Yes, I don't know how this kind of thing happened." ”

Miss Nine looked at Rong Hua, and barely squeezed out a smile on her tired face, "I only heard about Eighth Sister before, but I only saw it today," said and straightened out her sideburns and clothes, "It's so embarrassing, the gifts and burdens prepared were snatched away by those thieves." ”

Rong Hua hurriedly said: "Those are just things outside the body, if you lose them, you will lose them, as long as the person is safe," smiled comfortingly and said: "I see that the two younger sisters are about the same height as me, so I think it is better to take out my clothes and wear them first." ”

Miss Nine and Miss Eleven said embarrassedly: "Then thank you, sister." ”

Mu Hibiscus hurriedly went to find Yaohua's clothes and came out, and called Yu Mu's maid in to clean the two young ladies, Miss Nine stood up and was just about to enter the inner room, Rong Hua suddenly found that there was a small pool of shocking blood on Miss Jiu's blue dress.

Rong Hua was slightly stunned, stepped forward and took Miss Jiu's hand, "I have something in the warm pavilion, my sister and I come in to take a look." As he spoke, he deliberately used his skirt to cover the pool of blood.

Although Miss Nine didn't know why Eighth Sister suddenly asked her to go to the Warm Pavilion with her, she turned her head and saw Eighth Sister's meaningful gaze, so she obediently followed.

After entering the warm pavilion, I heard that the maids outside had let Miss Eleven into the inner room, and the sound of hibiscus dismissing the other maids came from outside.

Only then did Rong Hua turn around and ask Miss Nine, "Sister Nine, what's on your skirt?" ”

Miss Nine followed Rong Hua's gaze, picked up her skirt and turned to look. I panicked when I saw the pool of blood, "This is ...... Whose blood was rubbed and when. ”

The blood didn't look like it was rubbed, it should be a light bloodstain, and the blood stain on Miss Nine's skirt was gradually deepening.

Rong Hua asked tentatively, "Is Sister Nine coming......?" is just the point, if Miss Nine comes to the moon, she will understand what she means.

Miss Jiu's face turned red and nodded, "It's only available this summer, but it's not my little day yet, so it can't be ......"

Rong Hua nodded, "Otherwise, I'll bring the clothes over, and my sister will change them first?" ”

Miss Nine knew that Rong Hua called her because she was afraid that she would embarrass in front of everyone, so she asked her to quietly change her clothes to save people from gossiping, and immediately felt grateful to Rong Hua.

After Miss Nine changed her clothes, Rong Hua came in again and asked quietly, "How is it?" ”

Miss Nine blushed and shook her head, "It's not mine. It's just weird. The blood had already penetrated into the skirt inside. As he spoke, he showed Rong Hua the skirt in his hand.

Rong Hua thought for a while and asked, "Who is sitting next to my sister?" "Maybe so......

Miss Nine suddenly remembered, "It's the third aunt." Speaking of which, "Could it be the third aunt......

Miss Nine seemed to want to discuss an idea with Rong Hua, "Tenth sister told me that she will fill in a younger brother or sister in half a year." ”

Rong Hua's heart tightened, "Is the third aunt injured?" ”

Miss Nine shook her head and nodded, "Those thieves robbed things, and the third aunt seemed to have been kicked a few times by the thieves in order to take care of Duchess Anguo." Speaking of this, Miss Jiu's face also sank, "Sister, you say, it won't be the third aunt......"

Rong Hua took Miss Nine's hand. "Let's go, my sister and I will go and talk to my mother."

Rong Hua and Miss Nine had just walked a short distance with Hibiscus when they saw a mess in front of them for some reason.

A woman came running in a hurry, "Miss, quickly find a place to hide, the wall behind is half burned, and a thief has come in from behind." ”

Rong Hua hurriedly asked, "Did the third uncle and third aunt come back?" ”

The woman hurriedly said, "Miss, don't ask, hurry up and find a secluded place." The family members in the house are all driving away. ”

Miss Nine suddenly panicked, took Rong Hua's hand and tightened it tightly, and looked around, "Eighth sister, hurry, let's ......"

Rong Hua stopped the mother-in-law, "Are there other young ladies in the house?" ”

The mother-in-law said: "The second lady protected Mrs. Cai and the eldest lady to hide in the flower room, most of the family members are over there, miss, don't go elsewhere, hurry back to the room and turn off the lights and hide, wait until those people are kicked out, and then notify the young ladies." ”

Rong Hua had to go back to the courtyard with Miss Nine first, and then told Miss Eleven and the others about it.

Jinxiu said: "This is careless, we put out the lights, and those people will not come in if there is no one in the house." ”

Rong Hua frowned, "In case it is those bandits who take advantage of the chaos to rob, and the family members in the mansion are chasing after them closely, they may find a random room where there is no one, touch something and leave, in case they touch us...... "The real target of the thieves should not be the mansion of people like them...... I came in through the back door again.

Miss Nine said, "Then what does the eighth sister think is the best?" ”

Rong Hua said: "Call the maids and mothers-in-law in my yard to the house, and light the lights, if it is a thief, you are afraid of the bright place, and you are even more afraid of many people." Besides, we hid quietly, and the family in the house didn't know where we were, so they couldn't come and protect us. That's all she can think of.

The maid and the mother-in-law bolted the doors and windows of the house.

Everyone sat outside, and let the ladies into the inner room.

After a while, I heard a fight, and then I heard someone shouting, "Here's one, come and help beat them out." There was the sound of a slurry.

The voice faded away.

Rong Hua let out a long breath.

Although there are "thieves" in the house. But it's still safe.

What is in danger now is the third wife, Liao, in case she is really pregnant, the pool of blood on Miss Nine's skirt ......
