"Knock--bang--"

The crockpot of the soup was smashed by stones, Qiu Yang screamed and jumped away, and then the small furnace that was burning with flames exploded.

Debris and chicken broth were flying everywhere, black smoke was rising, and the air smelled of chicken broth and soot.

Qiu Yang stood still, turned his head, and saw that familiar face.

"Three...... Third Miss?"

Qiu Yang shuddered, and in the slight smoke, that person was indeed Ling Lan, the third lady of Ling Guofu.

"It hurts, huh--"

Zhou Xingzhi gasped, she finally moved here with the help of the wall, but she still couldn't fall asleep.

She was about to leave, and she wanted to talk to Uncle Qiu more.

But as soon as she poked her head out, she saw such a scene.

The alluring aroma disappeared in an instant.

"Hey--"

She reached out and wanted to stop Ling Lan.

I don't know why Ling Lan did this.

But as soon as she made a sound, her legs began to ache, and she gritted her teeth and slipped to the base of the wall.

Zhou Xingzhi grinned in pain, turned his head to look, and saw Ling Lan standing behind Qiu Yang.

Her face was cold, like the frost and snow of June.

"Shhhhhh

Ling Lan snorted dissatisfiedly, Qiu Yang was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to attack, so he could only stand bent down.

She is the most noble lady in Ling Guofu, the future noble concubine.

In Ling Shuang's heart, Ling Lan was more important than her two grandsons.

And this Ling Guofu is Ling Shuang's final say!

I saw Ling Lan Xiupai cover his mouth, raised his feet, and with a look of disgust, he directly kicked the broken stove away, and then jumped to the side, just stepping on the small tree that Zhou Xingzhi had watered before.

The branches of the dry little tree were broken, and Ling Lan was ruthlessly trampled under his feet.

This is not something that a weak person can do!

Qiu Yang was dumbfounded.

It was the first time he had seen such a gentle third lady do such an outrageous thing.

"It's just right that a wild girl like Ling Shu is dead, hum--"

From beginning to end, Qiu Yang didn't dare to refute.

After Ling Lan left, he covered his face and grinned in pain.

The soup eventually splashed in his face.

Ling Lan left proudly.

Look at her back.

Zhou Xingzhi suddenly felt cold in his heart and a chill down his spine.

Teeth creaked.

For the first time in this world, I felt the danger.

"I've changed my mind...... Slut, wait and see!"

Zhou Xingzhi gritted his teeth and secretly watched Qiu Yang bend down to clean up the fragments of the crockpot, to make sure that he would not be discovered by her, so he covered his face and quickly went to the corner of the side courtyard.

There was a hut in the corner of the courtyard, which was his temporary pharmacy, mainly for the treatment of the injured Ling Shu, where his standing medicinal materials were available.

Zhou Xingzhi silently sent him away, made up his mind in his heart, and then returned to the couch with his body propped up, looking at the slowly darkening sky outside the window, waiting for Qiu Yang to come back.

Half an hour later, Qiu Yang finally returned.

Seeing that Zhou Xingzhi was lying down, he thought she was waiting for his chicken soup, so he rubbed his hands and walked over embarrassedly, bowed and saluted.

"Fourth Miss, it's all because the old man is not good, the fire is too big and the stove is blown up. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Xingzhi slowly turned his head, his eyes scanned Qiu Yang's face, and then asked, "Uncle Qiu, is your face injured?"

Qiu Yang's heart was a little confused, he hurriedly covered it with his hands, and replied with his head buried in his head: "When the stove was blown up, the old man was too close, and some soup was splashed...... Fourth Miss don't worry, it's okay, I have already put some herbs on the old man before, and I will be fine in two days. ”

"That's good. ”

Zhou Xingzhi nodded slightly, and then turned his head to look out the window.

It was getting dark, and she had to leave to-morrow night, so the plan had to be done tonight.

Seeing that she was not suspicious, Qiu Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and when he was about to leave, Zhou Xingzhi turned his head again, he was shocked, and stopped behind her back without looking back.

"Uncle Qiu, since the envoy who took the third lady into the palace is here, then the envoy who nominated me to enter the palace as well...... Are you here too?"

Zhou Xingzhi asked casually, Qiu Yang stood still, not knowing the meaning of her words, but he still turned around and nodded in reply.

"I am here, and I will go back to Beijing with the messenger who picks up the third lady and the other beauties the day after tomorrow. ”

He didn't know Zhou Xingzhi's purpose, thinking that she was just asking curiously.

Zhou Xingzhi smiled slightly, and then asked, "Uncle Qiu, can you find a way for me to meet with that envoy?"

After speaking, she paused for a moment and added, "Of course, this matter cannot be known to the rest of Ling Guofu. ”

Qiu Yang was shocked, so he turned around and walked to Zhou Xingzhi's bed, and after thinking about it, he asked cautiously, "Fourth Miss, have you changed your mind?"

He thought she wanted to go to the palace too.

It is indeed prosperous in the palace, and any woman will be tempted.

"It's not. ”

Zhou Xingzhi smiled gently, looked up and said, "I just have something I want to say to him." ”

After speaking, Zhou Xingzhi looked at Qiu Yang again and said slowly: "How can I be willing to let down Uncle Qiu's heart." ”

Hearing this, Qiu Yang was finally relieved.

Since Miss wants to see her, let her see it.

"It's just that it might be a little late. ”

Qiu Yang Road.

"It's all right, I'll wait. ”

After Zhou Xingzhi finished speaking, he turned over and lay down, Qiu Yang saw that she had no other instructions, and went out after saluting.

When the envoy came, it was already nightfall, which was later than the time when Lingkong Mountain secretly met Zhou Xingzhi last night.

Zhou Xingzhi had been waiting for him in the dilapidated pavilion, and when she saw him, she finally overlapped with the person in Ling Shu's memory.

The short and fat looks kind, but there is a fine light in his bones, and his eyes are unswerving.

Looks like a person with a clear goal.

Zhou Xingzhi looked at it, the envoy was about forty years old, because he had been in the officialdom all the year round, he would fulfill the minimum courtesy.

"The messenger Song Lian has seen the fourth lady. ”

Zhou Xingzhi waved his hand when he heard this, Song Lian looked at it, Zhou Xingzhi hung his legs and did not get up to return the salute.

Seeing that his eyes fell on his leg, Zhou Xingzhi naturally understood, so he said: "The envoy should know that my leg is seriously injured, and the etiquette has not been fulfilled, and I hope that the envoy will take care of it." ”

"It's okay, it's still the fourth lady's body that matters. ”

He had been in Ling Guofu for a few days, and tonight was the first time he had seen Fourth Miss, so it seemed that those rumors were true.

"Uncle Qiu, please leave first, Miss Ben has something to say to the envoy alone. ”

The gaze was firm, this was not like the two of them chatting before, this was simply a commanding tone.

Qiu Yang stood at the foot of the stone steps, holding a teapot in his hand, and he was about to make tea for Song Lian.

"Since the fourth lady has said so, these vulgar rites will be exempted. ”

Song Lian said, then turned his head and smiled at Zhou Xingzhi: "If the fourth lady mistakenly thinks that Song doesn't understand the rules, then it's not easy to do, right?"

"Huh. ”

Zhou Xingzhi pulled his lips and smiled, but secretly mocked in his heart: "Sure enough, it's an old slippery head." ”

Qiu Yang left after seeing the salute, only saying that he was far away, and he had any orders to summon him.

She understood, he was still afraid that something would happen to him before he left Ling Guofu.
