Chapter 367: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
The two of them rushed back to Cheng'anbo Mansion before the raindrops gradually turned into a pouring rain.
Mama Lin was already waiting in front of the mansion, and a large group of slaves around her had lanterns. There are people with umbrellas, and the originally deserted and lonely streets have become very lively, Su Xiyun just opened the carriage curtain, and Mama Lin already stepped forward with an umbrella.
"Miss, you're finally back!" Mama Lin said happily: "I have asked four times, and now that you are finally back, she can rest assured!" ”
"Grandmother, is she okay?" Su Xiyun said lightly, then held Mama Lin's outstretched hand, and slowly got out of the carriage, a cold wind hit, and she couldn't help but tighten the cloak on her body. The group is double especially bloody.
Mama Lin's eyes were very sharp, and she immediately found that the cloak on Su Xiyun's body was not her own. At that moment, her eyes lit up and said, "Miss, this cloak is so beautiful!" ”
"Well, when I came out of the palace, I met it, and the cloak was his." Su Xiyun replied lightly, but turned around and glanced deeply at the back alley, where it was pitch black, and there was no end in sight, only the ruthless and endless rain kept falling, and the sound of the rain was just like her troubled mind at the moment.
Just now, Qi Ye got off the carriage not far away. Su Xiyun knew that he must be hidden over there, and he would only leave when he saw her enter.
"Let's go back." Su Xiyun said lightly. said. Lift your feet and walk towards the house.
Mama Lin hurriedly followed with an umbrella, and when someone went over and drove the carriage that Su Xiyun had just ridden to the back door.
"Miss, I always say, the weather is bad and the face is slippery, you don't have to go to greet her tonight, in case of a cold, it will not be good." Mama Lin said respectfully while protecting Su Xiyun as much as possible with her umbrella.
"You go back and tell me, Xiyun thank your grandmother for your care." Su Xiyun said as she walked forward slowly.
Mama Lin was busy responding, but said tentatively: "Miss, why did you come back so late today?" ”
Su Xiyun glanced back at her. Xindao can ask like this. It must be what Su Lao meant, if she doesn't answer, the old witch will lie on the bed, maybe she will have some thoughts. At that moment, she said lightly: "Because I didn't enter the palace yesterday, I copied more scriptures today, and when I left the palace, I met His Royal Highness again, and I came back late." ”
"Your Highness?" Mama Lin was a little dumbfounded, how could Su Xiyun meet His Royal Highness? Just when she was surprised, Su Xiyun continued to expose a more: "Yes, Your Highness." He asked me for news about the eldest lady, and I learned that the eldest sister had disappeared. ”
Mama Lin was stunned, the eldest lady is missing? How can the good ones be missing?
Su Xiyun saw her surprise in her eyes, and then said: "But Mama doesn't have to worry, I heard that His Royal Highness has sent a large number of people to find it, I believe that if the eldest sister is taken away, she will be able to find it back soon." She wouldn't be stupid enough to smoke and tell Su Daiyun about sneaking away.
Mama Lin's surprise was even worse, where did the eldest lady go, and she couldn't find her even after sending a large number of people?
But Su Xiyun had already turned her head and concentrated on walking, not ready to solve this confusion for her. Mama Lin looked up at Su Xiyun, and said in her heart: It seems that Miss doesn't know about this matter.
She was thinking about it, Su Xiyun had already turned her head and said, "Mama Lin, you can send me here, not far in front of you is Qinfangju, you are old, hurry up and go back to Chunhui Courtyard!" ”
It turned out that Su Xiyun suddenly rose up the day before yesterday and changed the name of the courtyard where she and Su Qianyun lived to Qinfangju.
Mama Lin was about to refute, but Su Xiyun had already taken the bamboo umbrella in her hand lightly and went to Qinfangju. And on the other side of the fork, there are also two maids with umbrellas waiting there, and it seems that it is the big girl Ruyue next to Xiao Lu and the second lady. Su Xiyun walked over quickly, and people talked and laughed and went to the front yard.
The two maids that Su Lao allocated to Su Xiyun never showed up.
Mama Lin stood there, staring blankly at the back of Su Xiyun leaving, thinking in her heart, should she remind Su Lao of this matter?
And Su Xiyun returned to the courtyard, not long after entering the house, the pouring rain outside came down, she drank the tea served by Xiao Lu, and looked at the rain curtain outside the window in a daze.
I wonder if Qi Ye returned to the courtyard next door at this time? He's so good at light work, he shouldn't get caught in the rain, right?
"Miss, would it be good for the slave to bring dinner to the kitchen?" Suddenly, an unfamiliar female voice came into Su Xiyun's ears and pulled her back from her contemplation.
Su Xiyun turned her head, looked at the bewitching girl standing in front of her vigilantly, and said coldly: "Fang Fei, didn't I tell you to stay in the house and not run around?" It turned out that this woman was the two maids that Su Lao assigned to Su Xiyun that day. Su Xiyun has always ordered them to stay in their own room, and the two of them were quite familiar with current affairs before, but they didn't expect to run in front of Su Xiyun so blindly.
Fang Fei couldn't help but shrink when she came into contact with Su Xiyun's cold eyes, but she still mustered up the courage to say: "Miss, you always let the slave maid serve you, not let the slave stay in the house all day. ”
As soon as she came to Qin Fangju, she made up her mind to get close to Su Xiyun in her heart, but unfortunately, the gentle and infinite young lady in the eyes of outsiders became such a cold appearance as soon as she returned to this house, no, when the young lady faced Xiao Lu and the second miss, her face was still very gentle, but as soon as she saw her and Fanghua, the young lady's face would become ugly.
Fang Fei understands that Miss is guarding against the two of them! She originally wanted to take her time to gain the trust of the young lady and then get close to her, but now she doesn't have so much patience, her lord has already given her an order, if she still can't get close to Su Xiyun in the near future, she will become an abandonment, and what awaits her is only death.
When Su Xiyun heard Fang Fei's words, the expression on her face suddenly became even more mocking: "Are you an old maid, or my maid?" ”
Fang Fei lowered her head and whispered, "The slave is your maid Miss." ”
"Isn't that it? Since it's my maid, let's go back quickly! Don't be an eyesore in front of me. Su Xiyun said mercilessly. Her thoughts were interrupted and she was in a bad mood.
Fang Fei's face suddenly showed embarrassment, she didn't want to leave, but Su Xiyun's attitude made her want to leave very much. Just when she was entangled, Su Xiyun slowly spoke again: "You go back and tell Fanghua, just stay in the house if it's okay, don't run around, if you let me see it again, I will be polite to you." The tone was cold.
The look on Fang Fei's face changed suddenly.
It's a pity that Su Xiyun is even more ugly than her face, and she said angrily: "You don't want me to send you in person if you don't leave?" ”
Fang Fei hurriedly retreated in embarrassment.
As soon as she left, Su Xiyun called out Zhou Can: "Keep an eye on them, and if you find anything wrong, deal with it immediately." "She doesn't have the heart to deal with these ghosts at all!
Zhou Can looked at Su Xiyun's rare temper with amusement, and said in a leisurely tone: "Miss, even if you are worried about the prince, then you don't need to sprinkle the fire on others, right?" ”
Su Xiyun couldn't help but blush when she was told the central matter, and then said indignantly: "That's what they deserve!" I wanted to keep watching the two of them and see what moths could be made, but I'm not in the mood at all now! Hurry up and check, I can't wait to get rid of them! ”
But Zhou Can frowned and said, "Miss, no, there is." ”
When Su Xiyun heard this, she was taken aback: "Is it from the house or outside the house?" ”
She couldn't imagine that someone would come to deal with her in the house, and there were quite a few people outside the house who wanted her to die.
Sure enough, Zhou Can nodded and said, "It's from outside the house, and today's maid named Fang Fei quietly slipped out to connect with people." ”
Su Xiyun's face suddenly became solemn. She thought for a moment, and then said, "Then you hurry up and find out, it seems that before the second sister gets married, I can't touch them." ”
Zhou Can said slowly: "Miss, they are the people of the old arrangement, you are indeed not easy to deal with, but I will find a way to deal with this matter, and I will not let you be hurt." "If Su Xiyun has a long and two short, Qi Ye won't peel him off!
Su Xiyun nodded, and Zhou Can left immediately.
At this moment, in the upper room of Chunhui Courtyard, Su Lao was lying on the bed, with a pillow embroidered with red peony flowers behind his head, and listened to Mama Lin repeat Su Xiyun's words to her with a solemn face.
"Old, slave maid, look at the disappearance of the eldest lady, maybe Miss Er really knows something." Mama Lin guessed.
However, Su Lao shook his head and said: "Daiyun's disappearance must have something to do with the concubines of the East Palace, unless it is the hands of those women, no one has such a great ability to get people away under their noses!" Xiyun is just a boudoir lady, what can she know? At most, I have a better relationship with Daiyun. ”
When Mama Lin heard this, she hurriedly said, "It's the slave who wants to go wrong." ”
However, Su Lao frowned and said, "But since I went to ask Xiyun, I think this matter is not simple." ”
Mama Lin didn't dare to interject or say anything.
"Or, what does Xiyun really know?" Su Lao muttered to herself, but then she shook her head again: "No, the relationship between the two of them is not so good. ”
Mama Lin looked at Su Lao's infinitely entangled expression, and was about to say something, when a shocking thunder suddenly sounded outside the house.
Su Lao was suddenly startled and almost fell off the bed!
