Chapter 117: Eavesdropping
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!
"I heard that Aunt Zhao from Beiyuan killed her, just for a teacup, and when she sent it back, there was only one breath left."
"Don't say it, then Steward Liu is Aunt Zhao's person, and the province has heard that we have suffered."
The whispering voices of the two little maids reached Bai Zhi's ears, she felt a little cold in her hands and feet, she could beat people to death for a cup, how ruthless Aunt Zhao should be.
There are three aunts living in Beiyuan, Aunt Zhao, Aunt Zhou, and Aunt Liu.
It is rumored that Aunt Zhao has the worst temper, Aunt Liu is the best-looking, and Aunt Zhou is a smiling tiger, none of these three people is a fuel-efficient lamp.
Bai Zhi didn't understand that since these three people were Wei Xuan's women, why didn't they follow him back to Jinling Wei's house, but stayed in this small courtyard. Isn't it possible that the gold house is now popular?
The three aunts are not fuel-efficient lamps, she is afraid that there will be no good fruits to eat, and after thinking about it, it is more reliable for Mama Zheng, so she took the monthly money to the kitchen and ordered a few dishes that Mama Zheng liked, and carried them over.
In winter, it was cold, and she had to walk through the entire courtyard from her yard to Mama Zheng's side, so Bai Zhi found a path to walk, and when she crossed the rockery, she obviously heard someone talking behind.
She felt that she shouldn't eavesdrop on others, so she was about to leave secretly, but she didn't think that she had just taken a step, and the voice of the person behind the rockery sounded accordingly, "The master can't wait, the account book must be obtained within three days." ”
"What can I do, the account book is placed in the study, the study is surrounded by secret guards, if I go to get it, I will be killed by a sword." It was a woman who spoke, and Bai Zhi could tell that it was Mama Zheng.
"I know that the guard will go to the city to do errands in three days, and when the time comes, I will send someone to ambush him when he returns, and there must not be many people when he goes out, and when the time comes, the people will naturally transfer the secret guard away, you just need to act when the opportunity arises." The strange man's voice rang out again.
Mama Zheng was silent for a moment before speaking, "I know, I will do what you tell me." ”
After listening to the conversation between the two of them, Bai Zhi only felt a little surprised, did Mama Zheng want to murder Wei Xuan with others.
Sure enough, none of them are easy here.
She looked down at the food box in her hand, a little glad that she hadn't sent it out, and was about to leave with it, but she just turned her head and paused, someone was hiding behind the rockery, she couldn't see who it was, she could only see a little bean-green skirt exposed outside.
She didn't have time to worry about it, so she hurried away.
And just after she left, a woman came out from behind the rockery, and when she turned to leave, she didn't want to step on a small pebble.
The movement was not big, but the man behind the rockery was a person who practiced martial arts, and he was particularly sensitive to sound, he frowned and shouted, "What person?" ”
Mama Zheng was also taken aback, and when the two turned the rockery, the man had already walked away, leaving only a plain skirt corner.
"This person must find out who it is, she heard us talking, and she can't stay alive." The man's voice was grim and cold.
Mama Zheng bowed her head and responded, "I'll let people check it out immediately." ”
Bai Zhi hurriedly ran back to her room, closed the door with her backhand, and covered her chest a little frightened, these people were going to ambush Wei Xuan in three days, and she was hesitating whether she should inform Wei Xuan. After thinking about it, I decided to forget it, there are many people around Wei Gongzi to protect, and her little maid still doesn't participate, and the province finally put her life into it.
Thinking about it like this, she decided to treat it as if she hadn't heard it, although she wasn't going to report to Wei Xuan, but Zheng Mama's kind of person who colluded with outsiders to murder her master, she naturally couldn't take refuge, looking at the food on the table, she silently opened the food box and ate it herself, spending so much silver, throwing away the strange distress.
Mama Zheng returned to the courtyard and asked people to check the whereabouts of the people in the house today, and picked out all the people who went out alone without companions.
Mama Zheng used the loss of a piece of white jade jade butterfly in the treasury as an excuse to check all the maids in the house. At that time, the people of Fuchu happened to be resting, and many people got together to play cards, but a few of them acted alone.
There are three people who are not accompanied by anyone, one is the maid Biyun next to Aunt Zhao, the other is Huansha next to Aunt Liu, and the other is Bai Zhi.
The three people were called to Mama Zheng and asked them a few questions.
Bai Zhi felt that something was wrong when she heard the question, this was to ask her if she went to the backyard in the afternoon, she naturally couldn't say that she didn't go, she went to the kitchen and ordered, as long as Mama Zheng asked people to ask, she could inquire.
"I went to the backyard in the afternoon." Bai Zhi exhaled quietly, secretly telling herself not to be afraid, this thing is not so bad.
Mama Zheng's brows furrowed when she heard this, and she said coldly, "What are you doing in the back garden?" ”
Bai Zhi glanced at her, a little embarrassed, "I originally wanted to go to Mama's yard to talk, but you weren't there when I went with the food box, so I went back." ”
She can be sure of this, because at that time, Mama Zheng was hiding behind the rockery and talking to the man.
Mama Zheng's brows did not loosen, and her eyes kept staring at her face, as if considering the truth of her words, "Have you ever walked over the rockery?" ”
Bai Zhi was stunned when she heard this, and there were some doubts in her eyes, "No, the road over there is not easy to walk, I am from the lotus pond." ”
Mama Zheng nodded, waved her hand and let her out, and soon called the other two people into the house.
Bai Zhi and Biyun didn't answer anything, and by the time it was time for Huansha, Mama Zheng's face was already very impatient.
"Where did you go in the afternoon?"
Huansha glanced at her, and then smiled faintly, "Take a turn in the back garden." ”
"Have you ever been near a rockery?" Mama Zheng asked again.
"I've been there, and I happened to hear you talking to a man, Mama." Huansha laughed, "Originally, I didn't plan to eavesdrop, but what you said is really funny. ”
Mama Zheng's face suddenly darkened, and soon her expression turned into a sneer, "What do you want to do?" ”
"Naturally, I told Wei Gongzi." Huansha looked at her and blinked, "If I tell Wei Gongzi the news, Wei Gongzi will definitely reward me well." ”
"You think you can get out of this room?" The look in Mama Zheng's eyes was only uneasy for a moment, and she soon calmed down, this is the other courtyard, and it is the place she is in charge of, and there are many ways to open her mouth alone.
"It's useless for you to kill me, do you think I'm the only one who heard what you said?" Huansha was obviously not afraid, but there was a faint excitement in her eyes.
Mama Zheng looked at her expression, obviously prepared, "Anyway, what do you want?" ”
"Glory and wealth." Huansha spat out four words.
Mama Zheng laughed angrily, "I myself am a slave, isn't it ridiculous that you want to be prosperous and rich with me." ”
"Don't be ridiculous, I know that Mama has a sum of money in her hand, as long as you give me this silver, I guarantee that this secret will rot in my stomach for the rest of my life." Huansha said.
Mama Zheng frowned, affectionately revealing Senran's anger, that silver was last year's harvest just sent from the grange, if she moved without permission, she would naturally not be able to get rid of the amount when the accounts were settled at the end of the year.
"No, that silver can't be moved." Mama Zheng refused directly.
"If I don't get my money, I can't guarantee what this mouth will say." Huansha laughed lightly when she heard this, "Or I can tell Wei Gongzi the news, I think Wei Gongzi will be willing to give me a sum of silver." ”
"You really don't dare to touch you?" Mama Zheng was threatened, and she was very unhappy.
Huansha added another fire, "If I die, I guarantee that the matter of your collusion with outsiders to murder the master will reach Wei Gongzi's ears early tomorrow morning." ”
Mama Zheng's face was gloomy, and after a while, she sneered, "Okay, I'll give you silver." ”
Huansha got this sentence, the corners of her mouth hooked into a smile, she stood up and looked at Mama Zheng, "I'll give you three days, I hope to see the silver before Wei Gongzi arrives in the city." ”
Mama Zheng almost gritted her teeth and watched Huansha walk out, and then smashed a blue and white porcelain cup to vent her hatred.
Bai Zhi and Biyun were waiting at the door, Huansha opened the door and came out, glanced at the two of them proudly, and said with a smile, "I'll go first, are you still going to stay here for tea?" ”
Both of them were stunned, but they understood randomly, and went out with Huansha.
The courtyard where Bai Zhi lives is in the West Courtyard, Biyun and Huansha are in the North Garden, in different directions, there are few places along the way, and they are separated from each other not long after they came out of Mama Zheng's courtyard and walked.
Bai Zhi lay on the bed at night and didn't sleep, thinking about the expressions of Mama Zheng and Huansha in her mind, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, Mama Zheng's face was obviously angry, she looked at Huansha and her eyes were wrong, but she looked helpless.
She thought about it and suddenly remembered that she saw the pea-green skirt in the daytime, and she was taken aback, Huansha Mo was not the person hiding on the other side of the rockery.
The next morning, as soon as she got out of bed, there was a person in the room.
Raccoon yarn.
"Why does Miss Huansha have time to come to me?" Bai Zhi smiled, always feeling that she was not good.
Huansha glanced at her, naturally entered the room, and then sat on a chair and looked at her, "You went to the rockery yesterday, and you also heard the conversation between Mama Zheng and that man." ”
Bai Zhi was stunned, obviously she didn't expect her to say this straight to the point, although she was guessed, she didn't want to admit it, "I don't know what Miss Huansha is talking about, I'll go to the kitchen to help in a while, if the girl is okay, I won't keep you." ”
Huansha smiled, "You don't have to pretend to be confused for me, you and I know what I mean, otherwise I will reveal this news to Mama Zheng, do you think she will believe it?" ”
