Chapter 12 Self-Protection? Counterattack!

After leaving the General's Mansion, An Ruofei's mood calmed down a little. She was right, Li Ningyou hurt her and wanted to find someone to help her bandage, so she could leave the General's Mansion by taking this opportunity.

In the car back to Si Le Fu, Li Ningyou looked directly at An Ruofei, and her eyes seemed to see her through.

"Can Lord An tell me the truth, why did you hit my sword?"

An Ruofei did not hesitate, and said to Li Ningyou very calmly: "Miss Li, do you believe that He Yan wants me to hurt you?" ”

Li Ningyou didn't feel too shocked, and said, "Lord An's words... I believe. It's just that she grabbed some kind of trick to coerce you into hurting me?"

An Ruofei looked at Li Ningyou steadily, "Miss Li, He Yan doesn't need to catch any handles, and I don't have any handles worth catching her." At that time, in her mansion, He Yan wanted to persecute me, and she only needed power? ”

Li Ningyou was still a little relieved, and asked again: "Then why is it in which house?" Why you? ”

An Ruofei knew that he would never be able to say a word about Xi Yan, so he replied: "Although you are injured in the house, everyone knows that I injured you, and I can't argue." As for why me, because I am the best candidate to be the scapegoat for He Yan, if I am not here today, will you still agree to He Yan to dance on stage? ”

At this point, Li Ningyou already has her own opinions, but she is still skeptical of An Ruofei's words.

......

In the Si Le Fu, An Ruofei felt a great crisis and threat. Since He Yan can take the people under her for her own use, there must be people from other clans around her. If you don't rectify Si Le Fu, I'm afraid that one day I won't know that I will be used in a thousand ways.

Just when An Ruofei was worried about the affairs of Si Le Fu, He Yan came.

An Ruofei laughed disdainfully, and said in his heart: "It's just in time." ”

Leaving aside the idle people and others, He Yan pointed at An Ruofei domineeringly, "An Ruofei!" You don't talk about credit! Aren't you afraid of death? ”

An Ruofei couldn't help but laugh sarcastically: "Credit? What more credit do you need to say! When I was in your house, I couldn't get out, so I was naturally afraid of death. But now, do you dare to sue me? You don't dare! If you dare, how would you come to me again! ”

He Yan was furious, "Why don't I dare? ”

But An Ruofei's expression was still the same, and he looked like he would go with you, "If Miss He dares, just go to the palace and say yes." Let's see if it's my big crime, or if you want to assassinate Li Ningyou! ”

He Yan was annoyed and angry, and asked rhetorically: "Red mouth and white teeth, why do you say that I want to kill Li Ningyou?" Just by your one-sided words? ”

"Of course not!" An Ruofei was still sitting on the chair, looking at her fearlessly, and said provocatively: "Miss He may have forgotten the sword I took from your mansion. In the general sword dance, where is there a bladed sword, but what Miss He gave me was not only a bladed sword, but also quenched poison! At that time, there were only three people in the hall, you and me, and the sword was yours, but you said, who do you want to kill? ”

An Ruofei sneered, "By the way, there are a few gaps in that short sword, which were cut out of Li Ningyou's sword during the dance. If Li Ningyou's blade coincides with the gap of the short sword, what can it mean? I don't need to say it, you Miss He will understand. ”

He Yan seemed to be unwilling, and said in a dark voice: "Why is the sword mine?" You brought it, you wanted to kill her, not me. Besides, her father is just a second-grade auxiliary general, and my He family is a first-grade mansion! Don't think that if you dance in front of Your Majesty, Your Majesty will favor you twice, and you can frame me. ”

An Ruofei's smile at this time was even brighter, and he got up and said, "You are bullying me for being ignorant when I first arrived." You know who is Hu Zou in your own heart. Any of your Miss He's swords are famous swords, and there is a craftsman's signature on the sword, so you can know that the sword is yours just by checking it. And! It's a bladed sword... The sword weapons used in the sword dance have never had a rule of cutting edges. Secondly, Li Ningyou's mother is His Majesty's own sister, what can you do with Yipinfudi? He Yan, you know these relationships better than me. ”

When He Yan heard this, she suddenly seemed to be deflated, and no longer seemed to be domineering just now, and said, "Then what do you want?" ”

An Ruofei did not immediately reply to He Yan's words, but sat back in the chair safely, "It's very simple, Miss He's sword, I will keep it well." And you only need to do three things, one of them: Miss He must learn to forget what happened to Lord Xi that day. Second: There should be no one in the House of Slele who has different intentions for me. Third: Miss He should weigh things carefully in the future. If Miss He is dizzy again one day, maybe I will take your sword into the palace to complain. What do you think of these three conditions? ”

He Yan almost gritted her teeth and said, "An Ruofei, there are still long days in Chongdu City." Hope you're doing it well. ”

An Ruofei sat firmly on the chair, picked up the teacup, and said without raising his head: "The mountains are high and the waters are long, I only hope that I will meet you indefinitely." I do not send it. ”

……

After He Yan left, An Ruofei looked at the ten-mile platform of Chongdu City in amazement.

The wind is blowing, and the sky is surging. Although she was now able to temporarily restrain He Yan by herself, she felt more powerless than before.

There are hundreds of people up and down the Si Le Mansion, and if you want to clean it up, it's not easy. Since He Yan can place people around her, then others can do the same. Moreover, if the rectification movement is too big and alarms the other family valves, she will fall into the whirlpool again.

In the end, An Ruofei made up his mind that the people of all forces could stay on the periphery, but the people around him, whether it was the gate valve or other forces, could not stay, and strive to not interfere with the well water of all forces.

After thinking for a long time, An Ruofei called the female official and asked, "Si Le Fu has to recruit and leave a group of new servants every year, where are the new recruits selected?" ”

The female official replied, "Most of the female servants in Si Le Fu are women who have not yet reached the rank of official in the family of some lower officials, or are more talented palace maids in the palace; There are also talented and innocent geisha in the market. Anyone who enters the government needs to make a register and register. ”

An Ruofei nodded, "Then you call the person who is going out of the house this year, I have something to ask." ”

An Ruofei's mind was to choose some reliable people to stay among the people who were going to leave the mansion this year, and she thought that the four major gate valves would only buy people, and they would generally only be selected among those who had been in Si Le Fu for a long time, and these who were about to leave would not have much value to them.

For the musicians and dancers in the original Shengge Workshop, An Ruofei did not plan to recruit them into Si Le Fu from the beginning. Although they are reliable, there are many more dangers when they follow An Ruofei. An Ruofei still wanted to put the original person in danger. For this, she would rather take a little more risk.

"Are you nineteen people going out of the house this year?" An Ruofei looked at the person in front of him, "Among you, are there any from the official family?" ”

After that, An Ruofei saw three women walking out. Immediately, An Ruofei asked again: "Who are the people in the market?" ”

As soon as the words fell, several more people stood up.

"Then the rest are palace maids?"

"Yes, what did Lord An call them to do?" The female officer was very puzzled just now, so she asked.

An Ruofei didn't promise her, but said: "The three people from the official family can go first." As for the rest, An Ruofei is still weighing. The maids and palace maids have their own advantages and disadvantages, but the people of the eunuch's house, An Ruofei believes that they will not be willingly used by her, nor will they be loyal to her.

After thinking about it, An Ruofei said again: "After leaving the house, there is something to rely on, and those who can go home can leave now." After some more people left, there were only three people in front of An Ruofei. One is a servant in the market, and the other two are palace maids.

"Is there any one of you who doesn't want to leave and wants to stay in Se Lok's House?" After the three hesitated, two more palace maids wanted to leave, and An Ruofei also let them go.

An Ruofei looked at the only one left, "Since you don't want to leave, I'll let you stay." In Saalman's House, I still have the final say. If you are willing to be by my side to do things for me, I will certainly not treat you badly, are you willing? ”

After thinking about it and hesitating, Lang Yu finally expressed his willingness.

An Ruofei nodded with satisfaction, "In this case, the suspect doesn't need to." You will be my right-hand man from now on, and all the affairs around me will be handled by you. ”

Lang Yu's hesitation made An Ruofei feel reassured. If she agreed without even thinking about it, An Ruofei would be suspicious.

"What's your name?"

"If you go back to Si Le, my name is Langyu."

She looks like she is only twenty-five or sixteen, she was originally a maid in the palace, and when she was on an errand at the concubine's office, she was elected to the Si Le Mansion, and she has been in the palace for three years.

An Ruofei heard that she had been on an errand with Concubine Yuan, so she asked with some curiosity: "Is Concubine Yuan's surname Xi?" An Ruofei vaguely remembered that in the plum garden next to the side hall that night, Xi Yan had mentioned that the path could lead to the Zhaochun Palace of the Yuan Concubine. Presumably Concubine Yuan is Xi Yan's aunt.

Lang Yu replied respectfully: "Concubine Yuan is the eldest lady of the Xi family in the past, and after entering the palace, the slave maid served her. ”

An Ruofei was a little puzzled, "You are so transparent, how can Concubine Yuan be willing to let you out?" ”

"Si Le didn't know, the slave maid was still young, and the concubine Niangniang saw that the slave maid had some talent, and she took pity on the slave and maid, so she sent the slave and maid out."

An Ruofei nodded, her explanation was reasonable.

That night, someone in Si Le Fu suddenly died, An Ruofei smiled, and said to himself: "He Yan's speed is still satisfactory." ”

......

So far, on the surface, Salo House is calm.
