Chapter 5: The Death of the Handmaiden
The old man was so angry because of this incident that he couldn't eat, and he lost his temper in the room, and no one was seen.
The housekeeper asked Long Yinle and Liu Ye to move the room, but Long Yinle said that he was not afraid of bad luck, insisted on living in Yingchun Garden, and continued to live in the new house where the murder occurred.
The housekeeper didn't dare to bring this matter back to the old man for the time being, so he just waited for his anger to subside, and then let him personally tell Grandma Sun about changing the house.
After a night of silence, I heard early the next morning that something big had happened again. It turned out that Huang Yanqing, the wife of the third young master, begged outside the old man's door last night and asked the old man to save his husband, but the old man was unmoved and threatened to let him accept the punishment of the national law. Huang Yanqing had nothing to do, so she ordered her daughter-in-law to seduce the guards guarding the treasury, and then went in to steal the Liu family's heirloom Golden Eagle card, and secretly took it to the Regent's Mansion to beg the current regent to raise his noble hand.
Women and children have no knowledge, Huang Yanqing knows that the current regent controls the government, and the emperor is just a puppet, in her cognition, the regent is the biggest person in Zhao State, of course it is right to ask him.
Of course, she couldn't see the regent, and she couldn't even enter the regent's palace, so the guard outside the door took the treasure she had sent, and said a few perfunctory words, and promised that it would be done, and she went away happily, knowing that people were just going to covet her treasure.
Knowing the good things Huang Yanqing did, the old man was so angry on the spot that he spit out a mouthful of blood, fainted to the ground, and couldn't say a word.
This matter reached Long Yinle's ears, and she said lightly to the maid Xiaoxiang: "According to the status of the Liu family in the capital, when this case is sentenced by Shuntianfu, it will be more or less based on the old man's face. Now that the regent has been alarmed, it seems that the third young man of the Liu family is more than lucky. ”
Xiao Xiang didn't know why, and asked, "The regent received a gift, why do you have to give a heavy sentence?" ”
"Who's in charge today?" Long Yinle asked rhetorically.
Xiao Xiang thought for a moment, "Regent. People outside said that the emperor should also listen to the regent. ”
"Isn't that it?" Long Yinle smiled and stopped talking.
Xiaoxiang still didn't understand, and wanted to continue to ask, but Long Yinle carried a chair out of the yard to bask in the sun.
Shoutou walked over a little sadly and said to Long Yinle: "Sister, grandpa is sick, can you accompany me to see him?" ”
Long Yinle looked at him sideways, "He's in anger now, aren't you afraid that he will lose his temper at you?" ”
"I'm afraid!" Shou Tou raised his head suddenly, paused, and said, "However, I'm worried about grandpa, I'm afraid I'm going to go." ”
"You're not a doctor, and you can't help him if you go." Long Yinle said lightly.
"But ........"
"No, but, go yourself." Long Yinle said quickly, "Your grandfather doesn't like me, and I will only try to make him angry when I go." ”
Shoutou was a little sad, seeing that her face was cold and hard, and he was sure that she would not accompany him, so he slowly walked to the gate of the courtyard by himself. After walking a few steps, he looked back at Long Yinle again, "At most, I'll give you the rattan ball, and you will accompany me." ”
"The rattan ball is your baby, but it's not something I like, I don't want it, and I don't want to go with you." Long Yinle closed his eyes, "If you continue to disturb my lunch break, don't blame me for inviting the little snake out to play with you." ”
Shou Tou looked a little scared, but what Long Yinle didn't expect was that he actually said: "Then if I play with the little snake, will my sister accompany me to see my grandfather?" ”
Long Yin Lexing's eyes opened slightly, looking at him with some novelty, seriously, she really wanted to test how deep this fool's feelings for his grandfather were, she stretched out her hand and shouted: "Baizi, come out!" ”
The white snake suddenly fell on her hand from somewhere, raised his head, stretched out the snake letter, and looked at Shoutou proudly. The dignified snake king ended up trying to scare the fool, and Bai Zi was really annoyed, but who let him lose to Long Yinle?
Shou Tou was startled, hurriedly took a few steps back, snuggled against the cyan brick wall, swallowed his saliva and said, "Don't come here." ”
Long Yinle smiled evilly, "Aren't you going to play with it?" If you dare to hold it in your hands, I promise you not only to accompany you to see your grandfather, but even to help your grandfather retrieve the family heirloom. ”
Shou Tou stared at Long Yinle with wide eyes, "Really? ”
"When did I lie to you?" Long Yinle looked at him lazily, remembering the frightened expression he had when he saw the white snake on his wedding night, and he didn't believe that he dared to hold the white snake in his hand.
Shou Tou puffed up his chest, with a desperate look on his face, but his legs were constantly trembling, he walked over cautiously step by step, the white snake stretched out his head, he stopped in fright, and looked at Long Yin Le in fear.
Long Yinle sneered, "What? Don't dare to come? If you don't dare, go yourself. ”
Shou Tou stretched out his hand to support his trembling legs, and looked at Long Yinle with hesitant eyes, "Can you really retrieve the Golden Eagle card for your grandfather?" ”
"Absolutely." The corners of Long Yinle's mouth hooked up with a trace of contempt.
Shou Tou patted his chest and said to himself: "That's a wooden pipe, that's a white wooden stick, that's a white moving wooden stick, that's a white moving wooden stick, but no matter what, it's still a wooden stick." He sprinted a few steps, stepped forward and stretched out his hand to grab the white snake in Long Yinle's hand, his eyes were tightly closed, his face turned pale, and his body was constantly trembling.
The white snake instantly wrapped around his wrist, he screamed in fright, his body collapsed to the ground, and immediately several guards rushed in, he shouted: "Don't come, don't come, go away!" ”
The guards looked at each other, not knowing what he was up to.
Long Yinle was a little surprised, and he could see that he was still scared to death, but he let the white snake wrap around his wrist and not shake it off.
"Baizi, come back!" Long Yinle said lightly, okay, for the sake of his filial piety, she decided to help him.
The white snake withdrew from his wrist, suddenly burrowed back into Long Yinle's wrist, and disappeared. Long Yinle got up and helped Shou Tou, pinched his cheek and said, "Shou Tou, you won." ”
Shoutou suddenly cried out, grabbed Long Yinle and said, "Scared me to death, scared me to death." ”
Long Yinle laughed, pulled him up, and said, "You are a manly husband, don't cry." ”
Shou Tou wiped a handful of tears, his body was still weak, the guards stepped forward to help him, and looked at Long Yinle with questioning eyes, "Young Grandma Sun, why are you bullying Young Master Sun?" ”
Long Yinle glanced at them and said, "I'm exercising his courage, you escort him in to rest for a while, and then accompany him to see the old man." I'm going to go out. ”
Shoutou took Long Yinle's hand, "Sister, didn't you promise to accompany me to see my grandfather?" ”
Long Yinle patted the back of his hand, "I also promised to help you get the Golden Eagle card, you go to see grandpa yourself, and then accompany you when I get the Golden Eagle card." ”
The guard sneered: "Don't talk nonsense, the Golden Eagle cards are already in the Regent's Mansion, how can Grandma Sun get them back?" Please don't deceive Young Master Sun, lest he be disappointed in the end. It can be seen that this guard is one of the few people in the mansion who maintains Shoutou, and at this point, Long Yinle ignores his rudeness.
Shoutou believed in Long Yinle very much, and he said: "Don't talk nonsense, my sister will definitely be able to get back the Golden Eagle card." ”
Long Yinle only smiled silently, turned around and went back to the house. And Shou Tou followed the guards to Yufeng Building to see the old man.
Long Yinle pulled out the jasper hairpin on her head, and the hairpin turned into a human shape in her hand, and she said, "Green Lotus, go to the Regent's Mansion to investigate, where is the Golden Eagle card?" “
The green lotus responded, and suddenly turned into green smoke and went out.
However, after only half a moment, Green Lotus returned, and she frowned and said to Long Yinle: "I can't get in!" ”
Long Yinle was a little surprised, although Green Lotus was a ghost, but when he followed Long Xing'er before, he got a breath of yang energy, and he had the mana of the dragon staff to help him cultivate, and finally he was even more enlightened by Yang Ruhai, even the ghost king had to be afraid of her for three points. But she couldn't even enter the Regent's Palace.
"It seems that I am going to go out in person." Long Yinle groaned and said, maybe, there are no masters in the palace.
