The corner gate leads to the narrow alley of the backyard, with the mountain of the main house on one side and a high stone wall on the other, only four or five steps wide between the two walls. Mama Chen took a few steps back, and her back pressed against the corner door.

Seeing that she couldn't move against the door panel, Mama Li slowly pulled out a short knife, scraped the thumb of her left hand twice on the blade, and then raised her eyes and stared at her and asked, "Usually you don't care what you do today, the old body only asks...... How did the old lady get sick? ”

There are two high walls on the narrow road, and the clothes on the two people who are blown by the wind in the hall are "fluttering" and rolling around.

"I ...... I wasn't in the hall at the time. Chen Mama stared at the short knife shining with cold light, only to feel that the wind seemed to smell of blood, so she stretched her neck and swallowed her saliva, and said in horror: "I didn't see anything." ”

Don't say? It seems that the only one is hard.

Li Mama squinted gloomily, leaned forward, grabbed her placket with one hand, and crossed the short knife with the other hand, and the blade slashed from her neck, and asked coldly: "Still don't you see?" Well? ”

"I ...... I say! If it weren't for the back sticking to the door panel, and the front placket was in Mama Li's hand, Mama Chen was so frightened that she was about to collapse to the ground, and hurriedly said, "I heard...... I heard the old lady reprimand the eldest lady, saying that her vision was too narrow, saying that she belittled the two ladies in the third room, and that the lady could not afford to benefit. Then as soon as the tithes fell, the eldest lady came out to call for someone. ”

After finishing speaking, Mama Chen looked at Mama Li with a sad face, but as soon as she lifted her eyelids, there was a tingling pain in her neck.

It seems that this time the truth was told.

Mama Li leaned back a little, swirled her hand, "whoosh" put the short knife into her sleeve, and then clapped her hands and said, "Go and twist the handkerchief." After finishing speaking, he suddenly frowned again, and looked at her gloomily, "Remember, you must never leave the old lady in the future." ”

Mama Chen nodded hurriedly, only nodded, and suddenly her neck stabbed again, and the old woman stiffened her neck again, blinked and said, "I know, Li Zhangyuan has orders, how dare I not listen." ”

Now that the matter has been done, Mama Li is too lazy to talk to this treacherous woman again, snorts coldly, pulls her body vertically, and suddenly jumps onto the roof.

On the roof of the house, Li Ma swept around, and then walked north along the back of the ridge of the house, until she reached the edge of the house mountain, and then jumped on the elm tree.

The old woman had a habit of climbing trees and going to the house, and she had to go back to the tree once when she turned a corner.

Lan E watched her jump onto the tree across the bluestone road, and then tumble down from the tree, and couldn't help but laugh: "It's broad daylight now, Mama." ”

Li Ma didn't answer this question, stepped forward to salute, and then said with a solemn face: "The old slave asked, it's really wrong here." ”

Even if she didn't deliberately point it out, Lan E knew what she meant, and the old lady's sudden dizziness was related to Pei's family.

Lan'e nodded her chin and said softly, "I guessed." ”

Although Mama Li heard her voice softly, there was a chill inside, and she knew that she had also thought of this, so she frowned and asked: "The old slave doesn't understand, according to the old lady's temperament, don't say that the Pei family asked the lady to admit her mistake, even if it ...... Cough! Why did Pei start? ”

Before entering the Qixiao Hall, Lan E suspected that the old lady had pretended to be sick again. When she saw Pei Shi in the inner room, and saw her holding Chen Ma and the others in the room inch by inch, Lan E overturned her previous idea.

The old lady's illness must be related to Pei's letting her go to Li's house to admit her mistake.

As for the real situation at that time......

Lan E frowned and thought for a moment, shook her head and sighed: "The Pei family has been too smooth in the past few years, forgetting that she is the eldest lady of the Wang family, not the daughter of the Pei family." ”

What is the big lady Pei's daughter?

Mama Li was stunned for a moment, only to be stunned to taste the meaning of her words again, and then said: "The old lady has the most important reputation in her life, so according to the lady, what should I do next?" ”

For the sake of the old lady who has not yet arrived at home...... Lan E curled her fingers and dusted her sleeves and asked, "I guess you have already visited the old lady." ”

Mama Li nodded with a solemn face: "Yes, the old slave will go to see her first when she enters the mansion." The old slave looked at her...... There seems to be a sign of a stroke. ”

A sign of a stroke? Judging from the situation in the Garden of the Windswept in the morning, there will be a real disaster in a few months. Regardless of whether she goes to Jinyang or not, the first thing is that the old lady must not make a mistake now.

Lan E raised her eyes and looked at Mama Li: "No matter what method you use, you must wake her up." ”

Mama Li nodded with a heavy face: "The old slave also thinks so, she is the grandmother of the lady after all, the old slave will try." With that, he took two steps back, straightened his waist, and suddenly disappeared.

Her front feet disappeared, and Lan E's back feet went around the bushes, and when Ah Yi saw her come out, she trotted under the wall.

When she got to the front, the little girl whispered, "The lady asked the maid to keep an eye on the movement...... Just now, Bi Langjun led a big doctor in. ”

Get a big doctor?

Lan E slowed down, frowned and asked, "It's not Zheng Yiling?" ”

"It's not." Ah Mo shook her head: "The maid heard it clearly, Bi Langjun said to the eldest lady...... Doctor Zheng ordered him to leave the city and did not return, so he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask for Doctor Chang. ”

The great doctor of the Prime Minister's Mansion?

Lan E's heart sank.

Although she couldn't tell who was talking to Li Shu in the forest, she knew that the right prime minister Chen Ping also participated in the battle of "Sweeping Zhulu". In order to be able to eradicate the Lu clan in a row, these people must be trying their best to win over the major families.

At this time, Wang Bi begged to come to the door......

Lan E thought for a moment, and then instructed Ah Mo: "You think of a way to lead the eldest brother to the Forgetful Words Hall." ”

There was a bit of caution on her face.

Ah Mo was shocked, and said in a low voice: "The slave is going to call Bi Langjun." With that, he glanced left and right a few times, and then hurriedly turned back again.

The Forgotten Words Hall is diagonally opposite the Qixiao Hall, which was originally the study of the old man Wang. It's just that since he died of illness three years ago, the courtyard has been idle.

There are clusters of flower trees hanging in the elm tree, and when Lan'e goes around the trees, a bluestone path appears in front of her. Twenty or so steps further along the path, a small courtyard will be revealed in the shade of green trees.

The servant woman in the courtyard was bending down to sweep the stone steps, and when she saw Lan E, she hurriedly put down her broom and stepped forward to salute: "The slave has seen Mrs. E." ”

Lan E pointed to the courtyard door and said with a smile: "What is your name?" I want to go to my grandfather's study, the door is locked? ”

The servant woman guarded the empty courtyard every day, and now she finally saw a "living person", and she was still a master, and the servant woman was busy and replied: "Oh, the slave's name is Ah Yue, the door is open, and the lady can go in." ”

Lan E asked and walked, and Ah Yue straightened up and followed behind her. Between questions and answers, the two entered the courtyard.

The trees in the courtyard are green cages, and the stone tables and stone benches with simple forms are placed against the south wall, and then there are several clusters of Xiangfei bamboos in front of the house, and a row of bluestone houses behind are half covered and half covered.

After the two of them passed through the bamboo forest, Ah Yue stepped forward and pushed open the door, then turned sideways and said, "The slave is in the courtyard, and the lady will go in by herself." ”

Lan E smiled at her.

Ah Yue bowed and retreated.

Lan E came to the Forgotten Words Hall, originally wanting to find a quiet place to talk to Wang Bi, but after seeing that the couch in the room was clean, she sat down on the couch near the door.

Birds chirped outside the door, and the cool breeze blew into the house from the bamboo forest, Lan E came up sleepy, so she propped her left elbow on the desk and dozed off with her chin.

When he was in a daze, he heard Ah Yue say in his ears, "The slave has seen Bilangjun." Lan E sat up straight and turned her eyes to look out the door.

In the midst of the bamboo shadows, Wang Bi Shi Ran entered the house.
