In the east courtyard, Huo Zun's mother, Lin, was already sitting in the hall early, with a small plate of walnuts on the table next to her, and four maids were waiting carefully.

She pinched a walnut and played with it between her fingers, only to hear a crisp "bang", and the walnut's hard coat instantly split apart, sliding along her fingers on the bluestone floor tiles.

Wow –

The sound of walnut shells falling to the ground smashed into Xia Qian's ears, her back stiffened, and she couldn't help but pinch a little tighter.

The other party's body is tall, his eyebrows are slanted, his eyes are like torches, and his luxurious body exudes a compelling sharpness.

The condensed air made Xia Qian's brain short-circuit, and when he looked around, except for Lin who was carelessly pinching the walnuts, everyone else's eyes fell on him.

Seeing Huo Zun give her a look, Xia Qian paused for a moment, and mustered up the courage to step forward and salute the Lin family.

"Daughter-in-law greets mother-in-law!"

Wow –

Another string of walnut shells smashed against the bluestone slab, and the bouncing hard shell splashed on her snow-white dress.

Xia Qian's face was stunned, the night before the performance, when the envoy explained the etiquette of the country to them, he inadvertently mentioned the wedding ceremony, saying that the new daughter-in-law gave tea to her mother-in-law.

"Ahh

She only felt a sharp pain in the back of her knees, and before she could react, she had already "fluttered" and knelt on the ground with both knees.

Immediately after, a pain in the vertebrae on the soles of her feet made her bend down.

She turned her face sideways and looked back, Huo Zun's cold face was full of anger, and several maids also looked at her with round eyes.

"Kowtow!" Qingyue secretly reminded her.

Kowtow?

The new daughter-in-law of Yi Guo gave tea to her in-laws, and there was no such etiquette!

Xia Qian's eyebrows were locked and locked, and people were under the eaves and had to bow their heads.

In this era of the jungle, dignity is far less precious than life.

Thinking of this, she bent down and kowtowed to Lin three times seriously, and then said "daughter-in-law salutes her mother-in-law" is kind and loud.

Lin put the peeled walnuts on the plate and glanced at her casually: "I am a dignified lady, but I can't afford to bow down to you, a courtesan of Kangguo?" ”

A Lady of Destiny?

Xia Qian's body stiffened, no one told her, where did she know the situation of the Huo family, and where could she distinguish so many etiquette.

The Lin clan glanced at the maid Mingyu beside him, and Mingyu hurriedly took two steps forward and handed the white silk silk that he had just taken from Huo Zun's room to the Lin clan.

Lin looked at the clean silk silk again and again, and a black cloud rolled up on his white face.

She held the white silk high and shook it in front of everyone, and finally smashed it on Xia Qian's face.

"It's the same color as your mourning clothes, what's the matter?" Lin looked at Xia Qian angrily.

Xia Qian lowered her head and was silent, her eyes full of panic almost made a hole in the bluestone floor tile.

Seeing that she was silent, the anger on Lin's face became heavier again, and he asked sharply: "On the wedding night, what should I do if I don't see the red?" ”

The maids looked at Huo Zun cautiously, and no one dared to make a sound.

"Mingyu!" Lin suddenly raised his voice.

"Mrs. Hui, according to the rules...... Rest! ”

Xia Qian's head was almost on the ground, and when she heard the word "Dangxiu", she couldn't help but raise it in surprise.

Lin's disdainful eyes just collided with her joyful eyes, and the black clouds on her face instantly rolled up.

"Shameless things can still laugh!"

She trembled in her heart, and looked at the bluestone floor again, with a chill above her head and a warm heart under her heart.

Lin Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and forcibly held back the anger in his chest and mocked: "My general's mansion is not a street in the market, even the most inferior maids are all ice clear and jade, not all the inferior goods can climb in!" ”

Xia Qian nodded three more times towards the Lin family, and said sincerely: "Madame's lesson is that the little girl is blessed and cheap, and she is really not worthy of the young general." Today's events, I am willing to be punished by Mrs. for all the time, and there will be no complaints! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone gasped, and even Lin paused in surprise for a long time.

The Zhenguo General's Mansion is tilted towards the government and the opposition, and the wealth is rival the country. Huo Zun has made great achievements, and he is one of the most beautiful men in the world.

If it weren't for Princess Xingping, the prospective daughter-in-law, standing in the way, how many girls in the world would have sharpened their heads and wanted to marry in?

Xia Qian couldn't wait to leave?

The divorce came so suddenly, and the cheerfulness of this daughter-in-law was even more unexpected to her.

Lin straightened up, looked at Xia Qian from head to toe, and said in a softened tone: "Mingyue, bring pen and ink." ”

"She's menstruating!" Huo Zun's cold voice came from behind Xia Qian.

Xia Qian was stunned and almost fainted.

"I didn't ...... Ahh

Before the word "no" could be heard, there was another heartache on the soles of her feet, and she cried out in pain.

Huo Zun, the bastard, actually kicked her on the soles of his feet again.

She turned her head and glared at him fiercely, only to see that there was a monstrous anger in those cold and cold eyes.

Lin looked at his son in surprise, turned his head and looked at Xia Qian who was kneeling on the ground, pinched a piece of walnut kernel and looked at it, and carefully peeled off the coat on it.

It seemed that after a long time, she finally sighed and said, "If it weren't for the emperor's marriage, I wouldn't have let you live today." It is the rule for the round house to fall red, how many days? ”

"The little girl is from a low background, and the matter of falling red is probably going to make Mrs. ...... Ahh

When the soles of her feet were kicked by him for the third time, the piercing pain quickly sent tears out of her eyes, and when she turned her head, she couldn't see Huo Zun's face clearly.

Xia Qian shivered involuntarily, and cold sweat came out of her forehead.

Not daring to make a sound again, she could only lower her head and stare at the bluestone slabs tightly.

Lin's clear voice came from above her head again: "A few days? ”

"Five days!" Huo Zun's cold voice also came from behind her again.

Sweat!

This conversation between mother and son completely treats her as air in it.

Is this month simply on Huo Zun, in the eyes of his mother Lin?

With tears in her eyes, she was ashamed but didn't dare to speak, her legs were already sore, and she naturally couldn't sit without Lin speaking.

I waited in the autumn breeze for half an hour, and I didn't see the general.

Lin neatly placed the peeled walnuts on the plate, and instructed the maid beside him: "The master is angry, I will not see her at this moment, let's make tea!" ”

During the tea ceremony, Lin deliberately made things difficult, and the other party was not satisfied with what she did.

People are swordsmen, she is fish and meat, and she knows this principle well, and she can only compromise and seek perfection.

For a cup of tea, she knelt for half an hour in front of everyone in the east courtyard, and said the words of begging for mercy seven times, but the Lin family never brought the teacup to her lips.

"I can't even worship tea, and what kind of gentleman's tea is brewed in the palace in shame? Kneel here before dark, and don't get up without my orders! Lin said, and the anger that had just receded came to his eyes again.

"Mother!"

"I don't have your son!" Lin glanced at Huo Zun angrily, "Go and see your father, bring these walnuts to him!" ”

In the study, Huo Feng looked solemnly at a portrait in front of the bookcase.

After seeing Huo Zun's figure, he instantly became furious, picked up a purple sand teacup and smashed it towards the door.

Huo Zun's eyelids closed, and the delicate teacup was torn apart on his forehead.

With a loud bang, steaming tea mixed with emerald green tea trickled down his forehead and printed and dyed on his clothes.

He frowned, stepped forward and placed the walnut on his father's bookcase, glanced at the portrait, and silently took two steps back.

"Drunken disorder, loss of honor in front of the palace, the position of the 100,000 pro-army commanders of the imperial city, the second-grade major general, and the concubine master have all made you lose cleanly. Now the wings are stiff, aren't they? Huo Feng shouted angrily.

Huo Zun's eyebrows locked slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Dad, the child has disappointed you!" ”

"Is that her?"

"It's not certain yet!" Huo Zun glanced at the painting and replied.

Huo Feng stood up from his chair suddenly, his falcon-like eyes turning red with anger.

"Not sure what you're going to do with her marrying her so hard? Notorious, unofficial, what's the difference between you and the thugs now? Kneeling at the gate of the imperial city for four days under such a heavy thunderstorm, I have lost all my old face! ”

"Daddy!"

"Don't call me! Don't you discuss such a big matter with me? Say, how much like? ”

Huo Zun stared at the painting thoughtfully, and said calmly: "Seven points, but there is no trace of the past in his expression and demeanor!" ”

Huo Feng glared at his son fiercely, sat down with a long sigh, and fell into deep thought again at the portrait in front of the bookcase.

After a while, his gloomy gaze fell on Huo Zun, and his tone softened a little: "She had just turned eight years old when the incident happened, and it was six years old, and the change in temperament and even appearance was reasonable. The stakes are high, and we will do everything we can to investigate clearly. If it's really her, you must dig up those people and catch them all. If not, find a chance to get rid of! ”

"Yes, the boy is going to the Brewing Mountain!"

Huo Feng's eyes were deep, and his eyes were ruthless: "Go ahead." Cutting the grass without removing the roots is a disaster after all! ”
