In the ancestral hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the upper position enshrines the tablets of the ancestors of the Shui family, and two rows of incense candles reflect the huge ancestral hall as daylight. At this time, a slender figure kneeled in the center of the ancestral hall, and in the smoke of incense, the woman's miserable little face loomed.

"Squeak", the door of the ancestral hall was pushed open outside, Shangguan Qiu led the maid into the ancestral hall, looked at the woman kneeling on the ground, and said with a light smile: "Ling'er, I said that you are so good how to push Xuan'er into the lake, you also know that at this season, the lake is cold, if Xuan'er has something three long and two short, the prime minister is not easy to explain to the Li Mansion." ”

Shangguan Qiu slowly walked in front of Shui Ranling, bent his legs slightly, lowered his head to look at the woman kneeling on the ground, and said with a gentle smile: "Besides, Xuan'er is about to marry into the county king's mansion." Ling'er, Xuan'er has just been pushed into the lake, and it has been reported to the county king's mansion, and now it is impossible not to give them an explanation. ”

Hearing this, Shui Ran Ling smiled indifferently: "If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse." ”

Shangguan Qiu's eyes flashed, and he continued: "Ling'er, no matter what you say, I am also your mother-in-law, and everything I do is for you, but now Xuan'er is unwilling to give up on this matter, so don't blame me for embarrassing you." ”

As soon as the words fell, Shangguan Qiu's face was already filled with a touch of viciousness, he stood up straight, and announced lightly: "Fourth Miss has already admitted that she pushed Miss Li into the lake with her own hands and wanted to put Miss Li to death. Now Miss Li remembers the love of sisters in the past and spares her death, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. ”

The corners of her lips curled up with a hint of mockery, and now that it was in her hands, she had nothing to say.

Shangguan Qiu instructed the maids beside him: "Help the fourth young lady to the outside of the ancestral hall." ”

"Yes, ma'am." The two maids stepped forward, lifted up the water dyed feathers on the ground, and walked out of the door.

A bench had already been placed outside the ancestral hall, and the two maids directly pressed the water dyed Ling on the bench. Shangguan Qiu said to the little maid who was already holding a long staff on the side: "Thinking that the fourth lady is a woman, if she goes down with a hundred canes, I am afraid that her life will not be guaranteed, but now it will be halved and reduced to fifty canes, and it will be executed immediately." ”

The two little guys with long sticks walked to Shui Ranling's side, raised the long staff in their hands, and were about to fall, when a soft female voice suddenly came from behind them: "Stop." ”

The two looked at the voice, a group of maids and women were hugging a woman in brocade clothes walking towards this side, and while walking, the ring around the woman's waist was 'ding', which was very pleasant.

The woman's hair and temples are high, her skin is as white as fat, her eyebrows are like distant mountains, her eyes are full of affection, and she is really beautiful and glamorous.

"Xuan'er, what's wrong? This has just fallen into the water, why don't you rest in bed, there is an aunt here, but you can't worry. Looking at Li Yanxuan, Shangguan Qiu asked with a smile.

Walking in front of Shangguan Qiu, Li Yanxuan blessed her body, and said: "Xuan'er is fine, aunt don't worry." ”

Shangguan Qiu took Li Yanxuan's hand and laughed continuously: "Okay, my aunt knows that you love your aunt, but my aunt can't see you suffer a trace of grievance." ”

"Aunt," Li Yanxuan looked at Shangguan Qiu, then let go of Shangguan Qiu's hand, walked to the woman lying on the stool, with a guilty face, and said: "Sister Ling, my sister knows that you hate my sister, so I pushed my sister into the lake, my sister doesn't complain about you, but today's matter is no longer something that everyone can solve with just one eye and one eye closed, so even if my sister wants to save you, she is more than enough to do it." ”
