Night, quietly.

The night in Shengjing is like this, it is obviously very quiet, but there is an undercurrent behind it. Silent fighting, no bloody wins and losses. During the day, everyone is well-dressed, you come and go, and at night you calculate each other, and you cheat on me. In this Shengjing, in this imperial city, in this deep mansion compound, how many lonely souls are hidden, no one knows the evil hidden under the red walls and high tiles.

Lu Yinhua had finished grooming at this moment, and she was wearing a plain shirt, with a wide thin shirt tattooed with flowers and butterflies, low-key and luxurious. She sat alone in front of the dresser, her slender jade fingers lazily playing with her hair, she lowered her head, and Lu Yinhua's beautiful face was reflected in the bronze mirror inlaid with red gems around her. She has always been so beautiful, coquettish and angry, and there is a hint of charm between her gestures, which makes people can't take their eyes off.

The door was gently pushed open, Lu Yinhua raised her eyes, and saw that it was Li Yuzhi from the mirror, she raised her eyebrows slightly and said softly, "Yinhua has heard about today's matter." It was I who underestimated my fourth sister, so that my mother and sister were wronged in vain today, and Yinhua always felt sorry in her heart. ”

"If it was really so easy to get rid of the slaves, I wouldn't be worried all the time." Li Yu stepped forward to take the jade comb from Lu Yinhua's hand, she stood behind Lu Yinhua and gently put a hand on her shoulder, she bent down, looking at the peerless beauty in the mirror, the anger in her heart suddenly subsided a lot, she reached out for Yinhua to pin the broken hair behind her ear, her gentle eyes flashed. This daughter is the best in Shengjing in terms of face, conduct, and resourcefulness, her best product, and her pride.

Thinking of this, a thick smile curled up at the corner of her mouth, and she said in Lu Yinhua's ear, "Yinhua, my good daughter." You are the best in the world, and your mother wants to give you the best, and she wants you to be the most noble woman in the world. Neither Virnor anyone else can be a stumbling block for you, and Mother will remove all obstacles for you. Saying that, she slowly took Lu Yinhua's hand and put it in her palm, "These hands of my Yinhua are extremely noble, they are the hands of holding the phoenix seal and benefiting the people, and those things that are stained with blood will be done by my mother." ”

Lu Yinhua lowered her head and smiled slightly, she leaned on Li Yuzhi's shoulder, "What the mother did for her daughter, the daughter knows in her heart." It's just ...... today I'm afraid this matter will make Yuebai sad for a while. Mother should go and see Yuebai later, lest she feel unhappy. ”

Li Yuzhi nodded, and told Lu Yinhua a few more words about the Qiongguang banquet, and then left to go to the west wing where Lu Yuebai lived. In fact, several henchmen who followed Li Yuzhi's side were like Spiegels about Li Yuzhi's views on his two daughters. On the surface, both of them are Li Yuzhi's biological daughters, and the two of them have almost the same degree of food and clothing. As the so-called palms and backs of hands are meat, but this palm is thick and the back of the hand is thin, Li Yuzhi prefers Lu Yinhua, which is an indisputable fact.

Let's talk about this dwelling. They both live in Ripple Garden, Lu Yinhua lives in the East Wing, but Lu Yuebai lives in the westernmost West Wing. Although the two environments are not much different, the east wing is next to Li Yuzhi's bedroom, while the west wing is much farther away. And the Dongli Dynasty has always respected the right rather than the left, and the east but not the west. The two young ladies immediately saw each other.

However, the West Wing is a little depressed at the moment.

"Lian'er, you say. What am I in my mother's heart? Lu Yuebai sat on the edge of the bed, tears couldn't stop in her eyes, fading away from the pampered appearance in the daytime, she was now so fragile that she could be crushed with a pinch of her hand.

Lian'er carefully rubbed the medicine on Lu Yuebai's face, her eyes were also watery, she had been serving Lu Yuebai since she was born, and she naturally felt empathy for her grievances. She said softly and comfortingly, "Second Miss, don't be sad, Madame's slap today is really helpless." The young lady should be more considerate of Madame's difficulties. ”

Lu Yuebai bit her lower lip and tried to suppress the tears in her eyes, probably because of the strong suppression of her emotions, and even her whole body trembled slightly. She took a deep breath and said slowly, "I'm sad not because my mother beat me today, but because of this kind of risky thing, this kind of thing that is easy to fall into infamy, my mother will never let my sister do it." For her, I am just a shield for my sister, a sharp blade to remove obstacles for my sister. ”

"When will she treat me like she did to my sister?" Lu Yuebai couldn't control her tears anymore, and the tears fell and melted the ointment she had just applied. Lian'er was distressed, and hurriedly wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, "Miss is like this, which makes the slave feel distressed." ”

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside, and then Li Yuzhi's voice came again, "Is Yuebai sleeping?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Yuebai hurriedly wiped away her tears and stopped crying, Lian'er quickly stepped forward to open the door, and saluted the people outside the door, "I've seen the eldest lady." ”

"You stand down first."

"Yes." Lian'er nodded.

Li Yuzhi walked straight to Lu Yuebai and sat down, she picked up Lu Yuebai's injured face, and said distressedly, "I have wronged you for my mother's hand today." Does it still hurt? ”

Lu Yuebai shook her head, her mother had been back to the room for a long time, but her mother had only come to comfort her at this hour, presumably her mother went to her sister as soon as she came back. I don't want to be okay, but the grievances that I just suppressed suddenly came to my heart. Tears fell in large numbers, she wanted to lose her temper willfully, and wanted to question her mother's partiality, but she held back. The mother likes children who are intellectual and sensible like her sister, so she can't be angry, and if she is angry, the mother doesn't like her even more. She barely squeezed out a smile, choked up and said: "Don't worry, my daughter is fine." The daughter knew that today's mother had to do it, and Yuebai understood it. ”

"If only you understood." Li Yuzhi withdrew her hand and put it on her lap upright, she sat upright and continued: "This time the Wei Nu'er has not been removed, I can't rest assured after all. Qiong Guangyan, she can't attend anyway. It's the end of August, and it's the season when the weather is getting cooler, and you're most likely to get sick at this time, so you should also take care of your body. Yuebai, do you understand what I mean? ”

Lu Yuebai lowered her head, and the self-deprecation and sadness under her eyes were covered by long eyelashes. She was a little uncomfortable, an indescribable discomfort. I thought that even if my mother wanted to keep herself from hating my sister, she would appease her today. Who would have thought that the so-called pacification, the so-called visitation, was the beginning of another exploitation.

The words have been made very clear, Li Yuzhi does not want Wei Nu'er to attend the Qiongguang banquet. At the moment, there is no good plan to bring her down, the best and safest way is to make her sick, and her face is not suitable for the saint in her illness, even if Wei Nu'er forcibly wants to go, Li Yuzhi can also use high-sounding words to suppress her. Although there is no way to do it, it has a certain effect.

Li Yuzhi saw that Lu Yuebai fell silent, and reminded loudly: "Yuebai, do you understand? ”

Lu Yuebai smiled bitterly, she slowly raised her head, and asked, "Mother, my father is already dissatisfied with me today." If I go to the trouble again in the near future, my father will definitely be angry when he finds out, and maybe he will disqualify me from participating in the Qiongguang Banquet. Why don't you leave it to your sister. After all, my father has always valued my sister, and no matter what, I will always think about my sister. ”

"This ......" Li Yu was stunned, and then said with a flattering smile, "You don't know that your sister is weak, and she has been busy preparing for the Qiongguang banquet recently, and she has been very busy. Don't bother her, leave this matter to you, and you can rest assured that you are a mother. ”

Although Lu Yuebai had a faint smile on her face, her heart sank again and again with Li Yuzhi's words. In fact, she didn't really want to blame Lu Yinhua for this matter, she just wanted to test her mother. Look at how important this second daughter is in her heart. Sure enough, she would rather risk provoking her father again and losing her party's qualifications than let her innocent sister get a little dirt on it.

She endured her heart and nodded: "Since my mother has already said so." Yuebai understood. Yuebai will do this thing without leakage, please let my mother settle down and teach my sister's "Dance on the Drum" well, so that she can show her style at the Qiongguang banquet. She lifted her forehead slightly, looked tired, and said, "It's late at night." Today, my mother is also tired from a day's work, so let's go back and rest early. ”

As a mother, how could Li Yuzhi not feel the change in Lu Yuebai's mood at all? Lu Yuebai's mind actually understands her, but there is only one queen, and only one of the two children can be considered after all. She said no more, silently got up and walked through the screen to the door.

When the door was opened, Lu Yuebai suddenly called "mother". Li Yuzhi's footsteps stopped hesitantly, she turned around and saw Lu Yuebai sitting on the bed, her tearful eyes full of grievances and sadness.

She asked: "If Yuebai is replaced by my sister today, in that case, will my mother also choose to blame all the fault on my sister?" ”

As soon as the words came out, Lu Yuebai regretted it. She hurriedly turned around, trying to hide her tears, "Yuebai's mind is confused, how can she ask such a thing." My sister and I are both mother's daughters, so naturally we are the same. ”

Lu Yuebai heard an undetectable sigh behind him, Li Yuzhi did not speak, but closed the door silently. The moment the door closed, Lu Yuebai got into the quilt and trembled and cried.

I know, I know! Mother, I know it won't be the same. My sister will always be better than me, and she will always be favored by you.

"Miss......" Lian'er didn't know when she came in, she gently hugged Lu Yuebai, wanting to comfort but didn't know how to speak. could only hold her quietly like this, and in her suppressed cry, Lian'er vaguely heard her say, "I can't fool myself, I can't even deceive myself!" ”

Long.

Lu Yuebai lifted the quilt, her eyes were red from crying and staring at Lian'er, "Lian'er, what do I have to do to make my mother look at me, so that she will feel that I am not worse than my sister, and I can do what my sister can do." ”

Lian'er hesitated again and again, her heart was sideways, and she couldn't care about anything, "Miss, Wei's mother and daughter have always made Mrs. jealous. This time the matter was also planned by the eldest lady. If the young lady can get rid of the Wei Nu'er with her own hands and do what the eldest lady has not done, I think the lady will definitely appreciate you very much. ”

Really?

Can getting rid of Wei Nu'er with his own hands prove to his mother that he is better than his sister?

Lu Yuebai's hand holding the quilt gradually clenched, and her eyes were no longer full of sadness, but more firm.

Mother, one day I want you to understand that Lu Yuebai is your best daughter.
