Chapter 253: Shane
On this day, the people of the Xuguo Mansion in Dongcheng got up earlier than usual.
By the time the day dawned, the Duchess Xu and the eldest girl Xu Chen, who had already served, got into the carriage.
The place where Xu and Xu Chen went today was Qingfeng Temple.
Xu's had a younger sister, and she died before she was finished, and every time her sister's death day came over the years, Xu had to take Xu Chen to Guanzhong to hold a small festival.
Because Xu feels that he is now loved by his husband, and his children are around his knees, and his happiness is smooth, which is part of his sister's blessing.
Because I came out early, there were few cars and horses on the road, and the road was very smooth, and I soon got out of the inner city.
It's just that he just left the inner city, and suddenly a tall horse rushed out of the oblique thorn, almost forcing the carriage of the Xu Mansion to stop......
…………
With the secret help of the "blacksmith", Qin Jian'an "invited" Song Daochang, who had just been sent back by Liang Huanyin, in front of the Qingfeng Guan, and arranged for him to go to a place that no one knew.
Liang Huanyin, who only owes Dongfeng for everything, waited for the news from his subordinates: they "unloaded" Song Daochang at the foot of Qingfeng Guan Mountain, and saw that the person disappeared for no reason without taking a few steps.
"What?" Liang Huanyin slapped his palm heavily on the long case in front of him, "Dig three feet into the ground and find it for me." ”
But after the anger, her eyes rolled and she suddenly asked, "Is the carriage of the Duke of Xu's Mansion out of the mansion?" ”
The subordinate bowed down and responded: "I'm out of the house, I should already be on the road at this moment." ”
"So what are you waiting for?"
What are you waiting for? The subordinates didn't understand what this Miss Liang meant.
"This girl is also going to Qingfeng Temple, and she will meet Xu Chen in person for a while." When he said that, his big eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a trace of killing intent.
She went to beg her grandfather, and mentioned her relatives and Fei had saved their grandparents in front of the Queen Mother, but she didn't expect the news from the palace that the Queen Mother was still hesitating between her and Xu Chen.
Then she had to go out in person to clear this obstacle for herself.
What happened to the five girls in the Marquis of Jingning reminded her that if rumors of a girl's family being hard spread all over the capital, where would a man dare to marry?
happened to know that Mrs. Xu was going to take that Xu Chen to Qingfeng Temple, so she thought about using such rumors to destroy this Xu Chen.
But she didn't expect Song Daochang to disappear for such an unprovoked reason, making her perfect plan fall through.
But it doesn't matter, it can't ruin Xu Chen's reputation, you can simply ruin her as a person.
Homicide...... It's actually quite simple.
That year, she saw for the first time the bandits slaughter her followers and shed blood all over the ground.
She picked up the knife and fought back, thinking that killing people was a difficult thing to do, and she was haunted by nightmares about it.
Later, when she returned to the capital, she once watched the lanterns, and on the way, she and her entourage were scattered by the crowd. She got lost and was followed by a disciple to a deserted alley.
The disciple thought she was a bully, and stretched out his dirty hand to push her into a corner.
She pretended to be scared...... Frightened, when the disciple approached her, he drew the dagger he was carrying, stabbed him in the heart, pulled it out, and stabbed him again......
It turns out that killing people is as simple as that.
Liang Huanyin pursed his lips tightly, was hugged by his subordinates, and walked out of Liang's mansion.
…………
Hua Chen got the news that Song Daochang was safely transferred, and instructed Qin Jian'an to continue the rumors, so he set off back to the academy with some anxiety.
He was actually not at ease, but Xi Xiang persuaded him: What the fifth girl cares about most is the fourth young master's studies, if the fourth young master does not go to the academy for the sake of the fifth girl, the fifth girl will definitely not feel at ease, how can she take care of her body if she is not at ease.
Hua Chen listened to Xixiang's words before returning to the academy, if he knew that she was just coaxing him to leave and not giving him a chance to say goodbye, he would not listen to anything.
…………
After sending Hua Chen away, Xixiang took a pair of shoes made for the five girls and went to the Fangfei Pavilion in the inner courtyard.
Hua Jin looked at the shoes with fine stitches and beautiful looks, and ordered Bai Tao to be put into the cabinet, so he sent all the subordinates, leaving only Xixiang to speak alone in the inner room.
"Your name is Zhao Leyi?" Hua Jin asked straight to the point.
Her eyes flashed when she saw Xixiang, and there seemed to be a complex feeling of fear, helplessness, and sadness mixed in her eyes, but soon this complex feeling was transformed into calmness.
Sometimes the truth can also liberate a person.
After so many years, Xixiang finally doesn't have to pretend that she doesn't remember her life experience.
It turns out that the moment when it is debunked is the most calm moment in my heart.
Xi Xiang knelt down in front of Hua Jin, and lowered her eyes with some guilt, "The slave maid deceived the fifth girl, deceived the fourth ......" Her voice was a little choked, but she firmly suppressed the tears that were about to draw out her eyes, "Deceived the fourth young master, the slave maid deserves death." ”
Hua Jin looked at Xixiang who lowered her head and kowtowed to her, and her heart welled up with helplessness.
"The slave maid thought that it had been for many years, and no one would know the slave's life experience, and if he knew, he would never stay by the side of the fourth young master.
Presumably, the fifth girl also knows that the slave maid is the daughter of a criminal minister, and staying here will hinder the future of the fourth young master, so it is better for the fifth girl to send the slave and maid to the official, those who do not know are not guilty, so that the fourth young master and the fifth girl will not be affected.
The slave and maid are powerless to change anything, but they want to say to the fifth girl one last time: The family has been honest since the great-grandfather, and it is impossible to do anything greedy for ink.
Please also ask the fifth girl to tell the fourth young master, don't feel ashamed because the slave and maid have served him, Xixiang has not done anything illegal. Xixiang can die calmly, but she just wants to say one more word for her father: he is really a good official, worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth! ”
Listening to Xi Xiang say such words, Hua Jin only felt that her heart was very blocked, and she sighed lightly before saying, "Who said that you should go to death?" ”
She wanted to say that her brother would never do this if he was here, but the words came to her lips and swallowed them back raw.
The Xixiang family's embezzlement of ink back then was confusing, and Fei had also told her about this.
So the future of Xixiang and her brother ...... It can also be said that there is no future, so why let Xixiang increase her attachment in her heart?
"I heard that you recently got a letter from your family, which was sent from Jiangnan by your long-lost cousin, hoping to help you redeem your slave body and take you to Jiangnan?"
Hearing Hua Jin's words, Xi Xiang was stunned for a moment, but it was also a moment, and she reacted, and kowtowed to Hua Jin heavily, "Thank you for the grace of the five girls' rebirth." ”
"Today's dialogue, there is only ......"
"Only the five girls and the slave maid know that the slave maid will rot in the stomach for the rest of their lives." Xixiang raised her head, and a line of tears finally crossed the corners of her eyes, "The slave will remember the great kindness of the five girls forever." ”
Hua Jin wanted to say that she was also for her brother, but she couldn't say it when it came to her mouth.
My brother and Xixiang may not be able to see each other again in this life, and the ignorant and innocent love is still in the bud, so it ends without a problem......
