"County master, the slave maid brought some hibiscus cakes from the kitchen, do you want to taste them?" The sound of new eyebrows sounded outside the door.

At this moment, the slave was holding the ledger and reading it on the desk. This ledger is of great significance, and if it is known to be deadly, the best way to do it is to remember it verbatim.

In the past few days, she has free time, so she locks herself in her room every day to study this ledger. No one was allowed to disturb him, so the new eyebrows were always standing outside the door.

Nu'er's white fingers were still turning the pages, and she didn't raise her head, and said loudly, "I'm not hungry, take this hibiscus cake and scatter it." ”

Xinmei hesitated for a moment, but still answered "yes", and went to the other room with the wooden support to distribute it to the others.

Soon after Xinmei left, there was a rush of footsteps and the sound of Bai Shuang outside.

"County Lord, there is something important."

Nu'er thought about it, put away the account book, and put an open copy of the "Book of Songs" on the desk. Then he said, "Come in." ”

Before the words fell, Bai Shuang immediately pushed the door in, and she was slightly blessed, "County Lord, I just got the news." Li Shilang was degraded three times in a row today, and his official character was demoted three levels in a row, from the first grade of the household servant to the third grade of Taichang Siqing. Now this matter is making a big fuss, and it is rumored in the streets and alleys. ”

"Can I find out why Li Shilang was demoted?" Nu'er asked, she faintly felt in her heart that this matter was inseparable from Uncle Lu Wen.

"It is said that he was impeached by Lord Lu Wen." Bai Shuang said in a deep voice.

Lu Wen?

The slave closed the book of poems casually, and her eyes as bright as the moon turned. Lu Wen loves money, and it is said that it is better to blackmail privately with the handle of the Li family than to make trouble in the court. Could it be that this Lu Wen is too greedy, not only blackmailing others, but also suing others to the court?

The slave thought about it and thought it was highly likely. However, what the slave gave to Lu Wen was only a small amount of Li Shilang's corruption and bribery, even if it reached the court, it would never reach the point of being demoted by three levels.

There must be other reasons behind Li Shilang's demotion.

At that time, the slave naturally didn't know that the reason why Li Shilang was demoted in a row was entirely because the son of the Li family moved someone who shouldn't have moved.

How many palace secrets are hidden in the affairs of the court, and the slave came back to his senses and simply didn't bother to think about it. No matter what the reason is, in short, the Li family suddenly changed, Li Yuzhi lost his backer, and this mansion can finally be cleaned.

That's the result. In the slave's view, the result is far more important than the process.

Without warning, the door was kicked open.

What appeared at the door was a face that was so angry that it was distorted, Li Yuzhi came in a hurry, and the steps on his head were still shaking from side to side. She had just received news from her father, and before she could calm down and think about it, she blamed everything on the slave. She was so angry that she lost her previous composure and forbearance, and rushed straight into Xiaoliuan despite the obstruction of her subordinates.

"...... of Venus"

These three words were almost squeezed out of Li Yuzhi's teeth, and the tone with a hint of hatred was really only something that can only be found when you hate poison. Li Yuzhi stepped forward quickly with three steps and two steps, she stood on the slave's face paint, raised her hand and slapped the slave with lightning speed.

She trembled and pointed at the slave and said angrily, "Your mother is dead, and my mother-in-law will come to teach you the truth of life!" ”

She grabbed the slave's shoulders, and her long nails dug into the slave's delicate skin, leaving blue marks on her body. Li Yuzhi had lost her mind, and she shouted desperately, "You tell me what happened that day!" Why is everyone dead, only you are still alive! Who are you? And who's behind you? ”

"Say!"

"Say! You say! ”

Li Yuzhi's fury stunned everyone. They froze in place in shock and didn't know how to move, only Bai Shuang was desperately trying to pull Li Yuzhi away, but Li Yuzhi was already crazy, how could she pull it away alone?

"What do you mean, the eldest lady, that you sent those people?" The slave stared at her and asked.

"Yes and what!" Li Yuzhi laughed, she slowly approached the slave's face, and said in a voice that only they could hear, "Haven't you always wanted to know how that slut died in Wei Fuliu?" I tell you, I killed her, and I poisoned her with a bowl of medicine. ”

"I guess you don't know yet. When she died, she was buried and buried, and I ordered her to be covered with hair and stuffed with chaff. Think about how ugly your beautiful mother must be. ”

When Li Yuzhi saw the irrepressible resentment in the slave's eyes, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and she straightened up. Squinted condescendingly at the slave's sinking face. I suddenly felt extremely happy.

There was a faint pain in his shoulder, and then the slave didn't know it. At this moment, all that lingered in her mind for a long time was the sick face of her mother in her impression and the death of Wei Yi.

The nightmares that haunted her every night, like a pair of invisible hands that haunted her all the time. It was as if she was shrouded in a huge darkness, as if there were countless boulders pressing down on her, making her unable to breathe.

The darkness and coldness of her youth had been frozen, and no matter how much she ran and fled from then on, she could never escape the edge of the shadows. The red plum in the snow was a ray of light shining into her black life, and people always wanted to get closer.

The slave slowly stood up, the anger in his eyes gradually turning into a deathly silence. She looked at Li Yuzhi and suddenly smiled weirdly.

"Smack!"

A crisp slap hit Li Yuzhi in the face with an unbelievable face.

"Smack!"

There was another crisp sound, and a palm print suddenly appeared on the other side of Li Yuzhi's face.

"You dare to hit me?" Li Yuzhi covered his face and screamed in horror and horror, "I'm your mother-in-law, your nominal mother, okay, okay!" You are an unfilial daughter, today I will do the rules for the general, and discipline you well! ”

Nu'er glanced at her coldly, and sat down calmly, "Just now you have personally admitted to sending someone to assassinate the county lord." Yu Gong, I am the second-grade county lord of the saint's own title, but you sent someone to assassinate me, which is disrespectful to me and disrespectful to the saint. Considered unfaithful. For selfishness, you are my mother-in-law, and the tiger poison does not eat children, but you want to put me to death, which is regarded as unrighteousness. ”

"Today, you unfaithful and unrighteous person want to discipline me, the lord of the holy county, on behalf of my father, I am afraid you can't. Because ......" Nu'er raised her eyebrows lightly, picked up the teacup on the table casually and took a sip, and suddenly she changed her words and said loudly, "Because the county will abolish you today!" ”

"You dare!" Li Yuzhi reprimanded angrily, "I am your father's wife who carried in a sedan chair from the front gate, and the little maid dares to speak wildly!" ”

"If it were normal, I wouldn't dare to cross it. But today, I just dared. Want to know why? The slave asked with a smile, "Xinmei, pass on the doctor Wang who is in charge of checking the pulse of his wife." ”

Looking at Li Yuzhi's puzzled face, Nu'er covered her mouth and chuckled, "Doesn't the eldest lady know that she is half a month pregnant?" But my father had been out on the battlefield for almost two months. Where did you get your pregnancy for half a month! ”
