Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Magic Bell

The concubine looked at me gently, "Because, you are very much like a sister of mine." ”

"Sister?" I looked at her in surprise.

The concubine nodded, but sighed, "Yes, in addition to having a sister who is a palace maid, I also have a little sister." She has been dead for many years, though. ”

I was stunned. After a while, I looked up at her, "That sister of my sister, I don't know what kind of sister it is?"

"She was the naughtiest and most endearing little girl in the house, lively, laughing, but like you like to make people angry." It's a pity ......" a sadness appeared in her eyes, "when she was fourteen years old, an illness took her from us......"

I didn't speak.

The concubine sighed, and said faintly, "You and her are similar in many ways, and seeing your mischievous smile, I have the illusion of time and space being reversed, and then I accidentally took you for her." ”

It seems that I owe it to her sister. There are some surprises, but there are also some feelings.

"I don't have the luxury of you really being my sister, but as long as you call me sister, I will take good care of you. Do what I can to protect you. She smiled softly at me.

I picked up the painting on the ground, not knowing how to answer, let alone looking at her.

After I stuffed the painting into my baggage, I thought for a while, then I turned around and smiled, "Okay, I will listen to my sister-in-law's words, and I won't go to Lotus Pond Villa to kill that old woman for the time being." However, I may have to live here for a while, and my sister should be ready to take care of me every day, combing my hair and washing my face. ”

The concubine looked at me in disbelief, "You, you want to stay with me?"

I tried the softness of the bed and smiled, "yes, I'll find something for myself to do." I pretended to think and said to myself, "I wonder if the old bustard of the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion will think I'm too good-looking and dare not ask me?" Or, would he mind if I beat up the guests?"

The concubine looked at her in surprise, "You, what did you say?"

"Why don't my sister accept me as a maid, I can be a maid for my sister for free. I said to her with a grin.

Hearing this, I understood my intentions.

"I just want you not to kill Miss Willo, and for the rest, I don't want you to do anything for me. Auntie said to me uneasily.

I lay down on the bed, looked at the tent on my head and said, "But I don't want my sister to die." ”

My aunt looked at me stunned, and suddenly her eyes turned red.

I'm most afraid that she will cry, "Sister, don't be moved, I just owe something to others." If it were someone else, I would do the same. ”

"Actually, the people in the organization don't necessarily want me to die. I am also Miss Wei Luo's maid who married me, and I have worked faithfully for Qinglei all these years, and I have worked hard without merit, and they can't want me to die because of this incident. Sister-in-law said.

"Oh? yes. But I want to stay here now, what should I do?" I looked at her with a grin.

"You little fool," she said, posing as a big sister, "what kind of place is this, don't you know? ”

I took out two silver tickets from my baggage and shook them in front of her, "Tomorrow I will tell the old bustard of the Baixiang Pavilion that I have wrapped it here, so that it will be simple." ”

My sister-in-law looked at me, and for some reason, she suddenly laughed, "Stinky girl." But soon she suppressed her laughter, "It's useless, Xiang'er, even if you're here, you protect me." ”

"What are you talking about?" a small voice suddenly came from the living room, interrupting us.

My sister and I were stunned for a moment.

I told my sister-in-law not to speak, and I dragged her to the living room.

Walking to the living room and seeing today's uninvited guests, I snorted coldly in my heart, and then smiled, "Xiao Qing'er, you are really bold, you are so blatantly overhearing other people's words." ”

Xiao Qing'er glanced at me, but she didn't get angry, "Thank you for the compliment." ”

"I didn't compliment you. I said.

"I'm not going to eavesdrop. Xiao Qing'er looked directly at me.

"Xiao Qing'er," the concubine stepped forward with a forced smile, "is there any new task for coming so late?"

Xiao Qing'er gave me a blank look and said to her sister-in-law, "Yes." But you weren't in the living room when I came, so I was kind here, who knew that after waiting for a long time, I was actually bitten by a dog. ”

"Hey, only the dog stays in someone's house and doesn't make a sound for a long time. I sneered.

Xiao Qing'er looked at me with a smile, "Only dogs bite people indiscriminately." ”

"Tsk, so you said you're a dog?" I smiled.

"I'm talking about you. Xiao Qing'er was still smiling.

"Oh, boy, are you looking for the ballast?" I smiled as I walked over to him.

"I'm sorry, I'm not as naΓ―ve as you, I have something important to come to my sister-in-law. Xiao Qing'er waved her hand and motioned for me not to disturb him and his sister-in-law.

"Xiang'er, don't be angry," the sister-in-law grabbed me, "Xiao Qing'er is joking with you." After speaking, she smiled at Xiao Qing'er, "Yes, Xiao Qing'er?"

Xiao Qing'er didn't speak. He looked at me with a smile and kept looking at me as if I had flowers on my face.

I sneered, "Really, I have something important to ask you as well." ”

"What do you want to ask?" Xiao Qing'er met my gaze leisurely.

"Hmph. I sneered, "If I'm not mistaken, I believe you heard what Sister Sister-in-law told me, don't beat around the bush, say, what are you going to do with her?"

Xiao Qing'er said, "Yes, I heard it, according to Qinglei's previous rules, my sister-in-law will naturally be punished." However, "he deliberately dragged his tone.

I gave him a blank look and urged, "But what?"

He smiled and said, "However, I just received news from the organization, Lady Wei Luo is no longer the lady of the hall master of the Qinglei Hall, she is now a traitor to the Qinglei, so from now on, the news about her is not important news." Therefore, if you tell you that news, it is not a leak. ”

I was a little surprised by the reversal. "That woman betrayed Qinglei?" The devil master once said that the woman betrayed him in order to enter Qinglei in the first place. "Why did she betray?" I asked.

Xiao Qing'er looked at her sister-in-law, as if motioning for her to answer me.

Why do you want to explain this matter that has just been decided? I looked at Xiao Qing'er in confusion.

However, something strange happened.

The concubine flashed a few hints of hesitation, and after a while, she actually really said it, "Love is extremely hateful." The young lady used to be madly infatuated with the hall master, and in order to prevent others from sharing the hall master with her, in addition to transferring me to Ganluo, she also did many things to hurt the other hall masters' wives. However, the hall master married her in the first place, just to get the power of the Jade Face Hall, so the more the young lady did it, the more she understood the fact that the hall master did not love her. So Miss ......"

"In fact, as early as three years ago, Lady Vero betrayed Qinglei once. At that time, Mrs. Wei Luo took the old department of the Jade Mask Hall with the intention of taking away the position of the master of the Qinglei Hall. Xiao Qing'er added faintly on the side.

This surprised me even more, and I was a little confused, "If that woman did such a betrayal three years ago, why did she continue to be the wife of the hall master later, and she was still protected by the organization?"

"Because of the princess of Siluo. Xiao Qing'er said lightly.

I can't believe looking at Xiao Qing'er.

Seeing my puzzled expression, my sister-in-law sighed and said, "Not bad." Childe Siro is a friend of the young lady. That's why I advised you not to kill Miss. ”

Thinking about his appearance at the Tongyuan Inn today, I never imagined that he would be so capable.

"So, when that woman betrayed Qinglei for three years, that Siluo Gongzi was also involved?" I asked curiously.

"Not really," Xiao Qing'er said, looking at her sister-in-law, "and that's what I'm curious about. Since the young lady is a friend of your young lady, he can do something to protect your young lady, why didn't he help your young lady in the first place and seize the position of the master of the Qinglei Hall?"

The concubine looked at him embarrassedly and shook her head.

"Sister, how did your young lady know Si Luo's son?" I interrupted Xiao Qing'er and asked this question.

"Sister Sister-in-law, do you want me to answer for you?" Xiao Qing'er replied unexpectedly.

I looked at Xiao Qing'er and couldn't help frowning. However, his words surprised me again, could it be that the acquaintance between that Siluo prince and Wei Luo was no longer a secret in Qingleili?

Talking about the topic of her former master, she was obviously embarrassed. She didn't know whether to say "yes" or not.

I don't want to embarrass my sister-in-law, I just thought about this topic, who knew that Xiao Qing'er said to herself, "Actually, their acquaintance is not complicated, one day five years ago, Prince Si Luo came to our hall master for something, Mrs. Wei Luo happened to be there, and when Mrs. Si Luo saw Mrs. Wei Luo, he mistakenly thought it was an old friend of his, and later explained by the hall master, and the misunderstanding was resolved." But after that time, whenever Madame Vero encountered any danger, Princess Siluo would show up to help. ”

"What?" I widened, as the friend she was talking about was such a relationship.

It's no wonder that the concubine is embarrassed.

But I'm even more surprised that the prince of Siluo actually has such a relationship with Qinglei Hall!

Thinking about the nonsense to him on the road today, I feel faintly uneasy.

But I thought of a serious question, "But isn't the hall master angry that cares about a woman like Wei Luo?" I asked Xiao Qing'er.

"I don't know about this as a subordinate, after all, there are some things that we don't dare to ask even if we are curious. Xiao Qing'er said.

"Okay. I sighed, "If that woman betrayed Qinglei three years ago, why did you condemn her as a traitor until now?"

Xiao Qing'er's expression turned cold, "Because, Lady Wei Luo tried in vain to steal the magic sound bell." ”

Lady Sister-in-law showed a shocked expression, "Miss, actually did such a thing?" Surprised for a moment, Sister-in-law suddenly remembered something, "But, wasn't the Magic Sound Bell brought back from the Carved Bone Mountain a few days ago by the Young Master of Qiushui? At that time, the young lady had already gone to the Lotus Pond Villa, and it was impossible for her to have time to steal the Magic Sound Bell." ”
