Chapter Twenty-Three: When the Mountain Rain Is Coming
I clenched the Chu in my hand, Aunt Sun, I want to annex my mother's dowry, but I also want to take care of my marriage, I'm afraid it's not so easy, right?
If you want to get it all back, it's actually easy, but I'm afraid that my father will have the reputation of spoiling his concubine and killing his wife. But I'm not an unrighteous person, not to mention that my father is very good to my mother, and no amount of gold and expensive things are as important as the reputation of the Song family. So, I have to think of something else.
"Yan Yun, you go and inquire about the situation of Lingtai Ling and Aunt Sun."
"Miss, don't you want to start with Sun's mother's family?" Zhu Yun is a smart one.
"There are three possibilities for an aunt to need money. First, the dowry in the hand is not enough, and their children's careers or marriage needs. "I picked up a pen and paper.
"Second, my mother's family is in trouble, and I have to use it for the support of my mother's family."
"Well...... "I put pen to paper," I said, "and I have a lover, and it will cost me." ”
Then he wrote on the paper: "Wait", and handed it to Zhuyun: "Send it to Tianxianglou." ”
Of these three, no matter which one of them is, you can get a glimpse of it from Sun's mother's family.
When I got back to the house, it wasn't too early.
Today, the eldest brother is not here, Kwai Shui came, I was also lazy, and I ate a bowl of crucian carp soup and was ready to put off the lights and go to sleep.
Who knows, there is a legend that the eldest lady is coming. And he hurriedly put on his clothes.
"Is there something wrong with the eldest sister coming here so late?" I asked hurriedly.
The eldest sister made a look, and I got rid of the maids around me, leaving only the snow rhyme and bamboo rhyme. "They're people you can trust."
"Sister, I have something to ask for. If my sister helps me today, she will repay me in the future. ”
"Eldest sister, please speak."
The eldest sister said softly, "Come in." I saw a man jumping in from the window. This person's face is like a crown of jade, and he is extravagant. Although embarrassed, there is no humility. There was a trace of blood oozing from the palm of his hand.
"This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and now there is no time. I am about to choose a concubine, and I am the most suspicious. It's good to hide it from you, and I'll tell you about some of it later. ”
"Eldest sister, don't worry."
Song Di nodded at the crown prince and quickly left my Tanghua Courtyard.
I saluted.
"No need, Yao Mei has just come back, don't leak today's events, I think you know the severity. These two maids, whether they kill or not, are all handled by you, but if the news leaks, the entire Song family will be implicated. ”
"Your Royal Highness, Song Yao hereby swears that I am the bloodline of the Song family, and if I do anything that hinders the prince and the Song family, I will never marry for the rest of my life, and I will not die well."
The prince motioned for me to stop: "Time is urgent, you first find a place to hide alone." ”
I immediately looked around, and if there was any place to hide people, I really didn't think about it. It was always inconvenient under the bed, and when I looked again, I saw the box containing the clothes.
"I just want to grieve Your Highness."
"It doesn't matter."
After hiding His Royal Highness in the box, he could hear that Mama Zhao outside seemed to have come in. I hurriedly turned off the lights.
"Did Miss sleep?" Mama Zhao asked Bamboo Yun.
"What's the matter?"
"A group of officers and soldiers from outside came in, and it was said that they were led by Commander Li, saying that they had found assassins in Los Angeles and wanted to search them."
"Anything to disturb Miss, Mama Zhao has also seen the world. Our Hou Mansion is not an ordinary family, can he be the commander of the forbidden army at will? “
Mama Zhao hurriedly made a silent movement: "This time I brought a token." I'm searching the room of the eldest lady in the East Courtyard. I'm here to inform the young lady and get ready. “
I pretended to be woken up: "Why is there so much movement outside?"
Zhu Yun responded: "It was an assassin in Los Angeles, and Commander Li came to the mansion to arrest him." “
I said angrily: "Miss's boudoir is also checked?" “
"Of course it is." Mama said.
"Okay, I'll see, what is the Grand Commander's ability to capture the assassin?" I slowly got up.
Soon, the noise was heard from far and near. A vicious man came in with a team of people: "Miss, I am ordered to search for the assassins." “
"Could this assassin run into my boudoir?"
"Miss don't worry too much, if not, we'll go."
With that, Commander Li made a gesture, and his subordinates began to rummage through the boxes and cabinets.
The box where I hid the prince is located on the left side of the wing. But I didn't dare look there. For I know that if I look there, I will never be gone.
After a while, the guards approached the box and was about to open it, when I smiled: "Does the general even want to search for this?" “
"Search!" Commander Lee gave the order.
The guards opened the box at once. I saw that the upper layer was full of my dirty clothes.
Suddenly, everyone was a little embarrassed.
At this time, I saw the eldest sister coming in from outside: "Commander Li, you have such a great ability, after searching me, you came to search my little sister's wing, you look at what you did, my sister Yao is not married now, isn't it that you, the commander, want to marry?" If that's the case, I'll go to the house one day and ask for an explanation. My sister can't be a concubine, so what if you divorce your wife first? “
Everyone knows that Commander Li's wife is very jealous, and he is afraid of guilt.
Commander Li saw that the house had almost been searched, so he smiled and said, "Don't dare, now it's just for the safety of the Hou Mansion, Li Mou never dares to have delusions." “
"Then you won't leave?"
Commander Li saw this situation and left with his guards.
The eldest sister helped me close the lid of the box: "Good sister, I have wronged you." When he's done searching and leaving, you'll go to sleep. After that, he walked out of the wing: "Xue Yun stays, the rest of the people go out, my sister is frightened today, no one is allowed to come in and disturb Miss again." “
After a while, the movement gradually died down. I hurriedly opened the box.
The crown prince didn't show any embarrassment: "Thank you today, I have to rush back to the palace immediately." If you are in trouble in the future, you will come to find the orphan, and I will definitely help you. “
I smiled and said, "Good! “
After the prince left, I showed some tiredness: "Tonight is lively. “
Xue Yun: "This Commander Li is really shameless, he has to break into everything." “
"I don't know which faction this person is, so be careful in the future." No matter which faction it is, it seems that it is not from the prince's side now.
I've been through so much in one night, and I'm really tired. Then he blew out the lamp and slept.
