Chapter 85: Hiding the Blade in Front of People (1)
Bamboo Shadow didn't know what it was like to say this, shallow rhyme and lightheartedness, these two wonderful girls, for the sake of each other's sisterhood, carefully kept their distance from him......
One is the woman he likes, and the other is the woman he regards as his sister, in fact, he should be happy for them, after all, in this deep high gate, it is not easy to have this innocent sisterhood, not to mention that you can give up the love between men and women for each other. Although it was he who hurt him in the end, as long as the light rhyme and light heart were well, he was alone.
After seeing the master and Xia Yanran, I know that the matter of fate cannot be forced, otherwise, both sides will lose.
There is a gloomy surge between the two, for the love of men and women who pass by, and for the sake of sticking to the same sisterhood. Qianyun has never liked to cry, but at this moment she couldn't stop crying, her eyes were just sour, but she suddenly heard a faint greeting: "Bamboo Shadow." ”
The two followed the prestige, and it was the new female guard Zhu Yang. In fact, Zhu Ying and Zhu Yang have known each other for a long time, and they used to learn martial arts in one place, but they ...... After several years, they have not known each other very well.
Zhuying looked at the heroic black-clothed figure, and asked with some doubts: "Aren't you on duty today?" ”
Zhu Yang glanced at him casually, and didn't explain much, but said, "I'm not here to find you." After that, he looked at Qianyun again: "Madame wants to see you." ”
Zhu Yang went to look for her in the shallow rhyme house, and the maids said that she came out to insert mugwort leaves. No, Zhu Yang had to follow Zhiyanxuan's house one by one, as long as the room with Ai Ye was inserted, he would not let go of any of them. It wasn't until I found this room that I caught it right.
"Let's go, don't delay any longer." Zhu Yang urged the shallow rhyme with deep meaning.
Zhu Ying was a little embarrassed, took the iris and mugwort leaves in Qianyun's hand, and said, "You go with Zhu Yang, don't teach Mrs. to wait in a hurry, I will insert the rest of the room for you." ”
Qian Yun didn't want to entangle with Zhu Ying in front of outsiders, so she simply nodded and went to the main garden of Zhiyan Xuan with Zhu Yang.
"Why does Madame want to see me?" On the way, Qianyun couldn't help but ask. After all, she had been belittled for more than forty days, and during this time, Izuku had never seen her.
Zhu Yang didn't hide it much, and replied truthfully: "The word has just come from the torture hall that Zhuo Yan is pregnant. That's about it. ”
"Pregnant?!" Qianyun was surprised, but in the end she suppressed the doubts in her heart, and went to see Xiu in silence all the way.
I haven't seen her for more than 40 days, and her lower abdomen has been slightly bulging, counting the days, she should be pregnant for more than four months, and her body is indeed much rounder, but her beautiful face has not changed, it is still a pointed melon seed face, white and clear. Qian Yun stepped forward and bowed: "The slave has seen the lady." ”
Out of Xiu took the opportunity to retreat left and right, leaving only Zhu Yang behind, and then said to Qianyun: "I have wronged you these days...... You did very well. ”
Qian Yun only replied lightly: "I'm for Master Hou, and ......" She glanced at Xiu's lower abdomen: "There are also Hou Ye's children." ”
Hearing this, Chu Xiu only sighed slightly, frowned slightly, and went straight to the point: "I deliberately scared Yan Yan that night, I thought she would talk nonsense and leak clues, but I didn't expect that mouth was very tight, and now I can only say to the outside world that she is crazy, and use this as an excuse to put her in the torture hall." ”
"It turns out that Burning Yan is not crazy." Qian Yun muttered, I don't know if it was disappointment or what: "What else can you say from her?" ”
Izuku shook her head and said that there was no progress: "What's even more surprising is that she claimed to be pregnant this morning, and Doctor Qu specially went to the torture hall to check her pulse, which is indeed true." ”
"Whose child? Do you have a clue? Qian Yun asked again.
Out of Xiu's face sank immediately, and said, "She is sure that it is the Hou Ye." But it just so happened that Hou Ye died more than two months ago, and she was exactly three months pregnant......"
"How could it be Master Hou's!" Qian Yun reprimanded indignantly: "How can she slander the reputation of the Hou Ye so much? Hou Ye...... How could Master Hou take a fancy to her! ”
Qianyun didn't believe it in her heart. Even though she has some resentment against Izumi because of Yun Ci's death, she has to admit that Yun Ci likes only Izuku alone. Even if Xia Yanran was pregnant in the past, it was just a cover to divert everyone's attention.
Don't say that if you don't believe it, you won't believe it. But Zhuoyan is Zhiyanxuan's maid, and Xia Yanran is married, if according to the old practice, the maid who marries has sex is no longer a common thing. Although he knew that Yun Ci would never touch Burning Yan, but now Burning Yan is determined, and no one has any real evidence to deny it......
After all, the deceased is gone, and Zhuo Yan dares to talk such nonsense because Yun Ci is no longer alive.
Thinking of this, a rare cold look crossed Izuku's face, and he lowered his voice and said, "I originally thought that for the sake of Master Xia's face, let her go." Now that she has the courage to ruin the reputation of the Hou Ye, I don't need to be lenient to her anymore. ”
As soon as these words came out, the shallow rhyme couldn't help but be stunned, and I felt that Xiu seemed to have changed in an instant.
At this moment, Zhu Yang, who had been silent, also suddenly spoke: "If we guess correctly, the child with a burning face must be the second master." That night behind the rockery, the two of them ......"
At this point, Zhu Yang was already unable to speak, so he stopped at the right time, changed the topic and asked: "How is Madam going to debunk her?" ”
Izuku didn't say anything, only kept her face calm, and put her hands on her lower abdomen, not knowing what she was thinking. After a while, I saw her raise her eyes coldly to look at Zhu Yang and Qianyun, and said, "Since she said that she is the child of the Hou Ye, then she can no longer be locked up in the torture hall." Not only do I want to let her out, but I also want to eat and drink well and serve her......"
An inexplicable cold light flashed in Xiu's beautiful eyes, and the other two people shivered. Qian Yun looked at the widow of the Lixin Marquis on the Danqi intently, and there was only one thought in her heart: Izuku had really changed.
However, in this place of crisis, her change is inevitable, and if she wants to avenge Yun Ci, she must become hard-hearted, otherwise she will not be able to protect herself.
For a moment, the three women in the room were silent, each with their own thoughts. It seems that there is something called "calculation" faintly born, and the snake hits seven inches, and it must be hit with one hit......
*****
On the same day, Chuxiu reported Zhuo Yan's pregnancy to Mrs. Tai, and Mrs. Tai was the master, released the person from the torture hall, and allowed her to temporarily return to Zhiyanxuan to recuperate.
Zhuo Yan stayed in the torture cell for a few days, and the person looked a little timid, and returned to Zhiyanxuan with a dull gaze.
At that time, Izumi was leaning on the beauty couch drinking the morning dew among the flowers, and when she saw Chi's mother bringing in Zhuoyan to ask for peace, she lazily raised her eyes and glanced at it, and asked leisurely: "Are you back?" That look and tone are a bit like Xia Yanran.
Seeing this, Zhuo Yan fell to his knees with a "plop", and said urgently as if he was frightened: "Madame's forgiveness...... The slave didn't know that you were there that night, and it was so offended to talk and collide......"
"Click" interrupted the burning words, it was out of the show that put the tea cup on the table in front of the beauty's couch, and chuckled: "That night I had insomnia during pregnancy and went for a walk in the inner garden, how could you see me as if you had seen a ghost?" ”
"Madame......" Burning Yan bit her lip, remembering how she felt when she saw Izuku behind the rockery in the inner garden that night, it was really weird. Izumi wore a plain dress, a cloak without powder, but there was a tear mole in the corner of her eye, and she was still holding a dagger in her hand...... At that time, she was blinded by the ruby on the dagger, and when she saw the tear mole, she was so frightened that her legs went limp, and she fell to the ground trembling and could not get up.
At that time, she was really frightened, like a madman, she didn't know what she was saying, and then she was thrown into the torture hall. But these days in the torture hall, she has thought through thoroughly, this is clearly a trap set by Xiu, to trap her! Thinking about it like this, she calmed down.
As long as there is no real evidence, even if she says any nonsense, what can Izumi do with her? Moreover, she has a child in her belly. This child is the key to her turning things around!
People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. Zhuo Yan knew this, so he also gritted his teeth, pretending to be cowardly: "That night, the slave maid missed my young lady and couldn't sleep at night, so she ran to the inner garden to pray for her, but she didn't know that she collided with her wife...... At that time, the slave and maid were frightened, so they would not choose to speak. I hope that Mrs. will forgive her sins. ”
As soon as Zhuo Yan's words fell, he heard a light laugh, and when he looked up, he saw Xiu getting up from the beauty couch, and Lianbu moved lightly to her and helped her up himself.
Burning Yan pretended to be flattered: "Madam...... How can this be done? ”
"How not?" Izumi smiled lightly: "I can't remember what you said that night, but I have wronged you these days." Now that you are pregnant with the widow of the Hou Ye, I am also a slave, so I naturally know your difficulties. ”
When Xiu came here, he glanced at him with a deep meaning, and then continued to Zhuo Yan: "I have ordered someone to clean up the south wing of Zhiyanxuan, your body is valuable, just live in it for the time being, and we can raise the baby together." ”
Raising a baby together? For some reason, Zhuo Yan's eyelids jumped when he heard this, and he subconsciously protected his lower abdomen: "Madame......"
Izuku's lips hooked up a charming smile: "Don't be afraid, Mrs. Tai has ordered, your baby will be taken care of by Mother Chi, if there is an accident in Zhiyanxuan, her old man will only ask!" ”
Hearing this, Zhuo Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Mrs. Tai is most interested in the heir, since she ordered Chi's mother to come to her own baby, and she said such a "warning", I am afraid that it is too late to avoid suspicion, and she does not dare to make any small moves easily.
After such an analysis, Zhuo Yan also smiled: "Thank you Madame for your kindness." ”
Izuku nodded with a smile and waved his hand: "You go and rest!" When this child is born, no matter whether you are male or female, you will not be left unidentified. ”
What does this mean...... With a burning face, he thanked again and again: "Thank you, madam!" ”
"It's not to thank me, it's Mrs. Xie and her old man." Izumi smiled again: "It's getting late today, you are so recuperating, let the kitchen do whatever you want to eat." Early tomorrow morning, I will go to Rongjin Hall to thank her old man! ”
Zhuo Yan bowed down to receive the order, and was about to say goodbye, but Izumi seemed to remember something, and added: "By the way, I see that you have been close to Qianyun a lot recently, so I will let her be transferred to serve you full-time." ”
