Seeing Yang quit coming, Chu Xi was very surprised, Yang Mansion and Chu Mansion had long since stopped contacting, and they didn't move around.

"Where's the man?" Chu Xi asked Yahuan, who was talking back and forth.

Yahuan said: "I'm waiting in the front hall, saying that this is the back house, and it's inconvenient to come." ”

Chu Xi got up and glanced at Lu Tan, who had just come back: "You rest first, and I'll ask you when I get back." ”

"Yes." Green sandalwood bowed, hurriedly turned her head and went down, and when she left, Chu Xi saw her red soles.

When I arrived in the front hall, I saw a plain-clothed young man walking anxiously back and forth in the hall with his hands behind him, and when he heard a sound behind him, he turned back anxiously: "Xi'er, are you okay?" ”

Yang Ci was very anxious, followed Lu Tan's back all the way, and watched her enter the Prime Minister's Mansion, but then there was no trace, so he hurriedly sent someone to pass the word.

Chu Xi felt a little strange: "What can I do?" With that, he glanced at the green sprouts and motioned for her to take everyone down and wait.

Chu Xi stepped forward and sat down in a few steps, motioning for Yang Ci to sit down as well.

Yang Ci looked her up and down, and saw that she was not injured, so he was relieved: "I just left the house, and I saw that your personal ring seemed to be covered in blood, and I hurriedly came in from outside the city, I thought something happened to you, so I hurried over." ”

Chu Xi smiled faintly, but she also felt strange in her heart, she only asked Lu Tan to find an imposter master, how could she be contaminated with blood? However, she didn't plan to tell Yang Ci about these doubts: "Xu met bandits on the road, I just asked her to go out of the city to Hanshan Temple to help me get some incense ashes. ”

Seeing this, Yang Ci nodded: "Then I'll take someone to investigate outside the city immediately."

"Not for now." Chu Xi stopped, she seemed to notice something, looked at Yang Ci with a smile, and changed the topic: "How is Yang Mansion now?" ”

"You let people send a lot of high-quality medicine over, after my grandmother took it, her complexion improved, but her heart knot was difficult to solve, I was wondering, do I want you to go over" Yang Ci looked at Chu Xi, but Chu Xi shook his head slightly: "Not for the time being, it's not time yet." ”

"Why?" Yang Ci was puzzled: "If grandmother sees that you are doing well, and you are by her side, she will definitely feel a lot more relieved." ”

Chu Xi looked at him and said with a smile: "You really don't know? Didn't grandmother tell you anything? ”

"Grandmother only talks about my aunt, I think she might"

"You don't know anything." Chu Ji's face was a little bitter, Old Madam Yang was talking about her mother, because of guilt, because of distress, but also because of anger, she was in the past, in the end, it was Chu Bingsong's blood, when Old Madam Yang saw herself, she would inevitably be entangled, worrying, angry, distressed and other complex emotions, sooner or later she would be dragged down: "Wait a little longer, after a while, I will pass." ”

Yang Ci looked at her complicated expression, and was also a little distressed, and sighed softly: "Don't be too bitter about yourself." ”

"Don't worry." Chu Xi smiled faintly, raised his hand and tossed the tea, but heard Yang Ci say again: "When the spring is over, you said that the snow will stop, and there will be floods downstream."

"It's dangerous." Chu Xi's hand froze.

"I don't know how, but I don't know how to persuade." Yang Ci was very distressed.

"I can't persuade him, he has such a stubborn temper, I originally thought that he would learn some lessons in the future, but now it seems that he is just passively avoiding the world." Chu Xi put down the teacup and stood up: "Let's go back first, since we know that it is inevitable, it is better to prepare earlier." ”

Yang Ci looked at Chu Xi's calm appearance, and actually had some admiration. looked at her and smiled: "I sometimes really hope that you are still the granddaughter of our Yang family, in this way, many people are taking care of the Yang family, and I don't seem to be able to protect the Yang family enough." ”

"Aren't I looking after you right now?" Chu Xiwan'er: "Go back, the current crisis has not completely passed, the King of Freedom will come out soon, and that is when you should really be prepared." ”

"Yes."

Listening to Chu Xi's words, Yang Ci subconsciously responded as if he was obeying the commander's order.

Chu Xi smiled faintly and turned to leave.

Yang Ci watched the door open, and watched her plain figure slowly disappear on the snow-covered winding road, as if in a dream. Such a woman, he only dared to look at it from a distance, and he didn't even have the courage to get close.

After Yang Ci left, someone immediately went to Chu Bingsong to reply to the news. Chu Xi didn't want to hide it, after all, she couldn't hide it.

Sure enough, not long after Chu Xi went back, Chu Bingsong came over, followed by Brother Hong.

Brother Hong is dressed in a royal blue brocade dress today, with a gold crown on his head and his hair tied up, except that his face is the same as Chu Bingsong's with a bit of calculation, he doesn't know, he thinks it's just a doll carved in pink and jade.

As soon as Chu Bingsong came, he led Brother Hong to sit in the first seat, looked at Chu Xi standing at the bottom, and said coldly: "What do you want to do?" ”

"I don't understand what my father meant." Chu Xi looked at him lightly. He still demands himself, and he doesn't dare to do anything to himself.

Chu Bingsong seemed to see through her thoughts, but there was no other way, so he only snorted lightly: "Don't think I don't know, you plan to rebuild the old friendship with the Yang family, but don't forget, it is the Yang family that has to cut off relations with your mother, so she dies of depression, you have to be worthy of your mother." Chu Bingsong knew very well that even if the relationship between Chu Ji and the Yang Mansion improved, it would not be beneficial to him, because the Yang family would not accept him at all. In this way, Chu Xi will only become more and more unable to offend, and he, as a father, will become more and more unable to control her.

"How my mother died, I remember it very well, and I will definitely get her revenge back little by little for my mother! How did they cause their mother to lose all their grief and die a little bit, I will make them ten times more uncomfortable, taste the pain of not recognizing their six relatives, experience the grief of falling from a high place to the dust, and then take their lives! At this point, my father doesn't have to worry about it at all! Chu Ji stared straight at Chu Bingsong, without the slightest warmth in her eyes.

Chu Bingsong looked at her like this, and suddenly felt a little chill down his back, and his brows furrowed fiercely: "You woman, don't be so angry." ”

Chu Xiwaner: "What my father said is true. Father came here today, but what other instructions do you have? ”

Chu Bingsong looked at Brother Hong on the side and said, "From today on, Brother Hong lives in the same courtyard with you." ”

"What?" Green Sprout exhaled softly, Chu Bingsong glanced at her dissatisfied, and said to Chu Xi: "Your mother is sick, and the other sisters are still young, as for the rest of the aunts, I don't think there are many proper ones, it's best to stay with you." ”

Chu Xi was sarcastic in her heart, and asked with a smile: "Father thinks that I am a girl who has not left the cabinet, and I am under the same roof with my younger brother, who is almost eight years old, is this appropriate?" "Don't let people point fingers when you pass it out.

Where does Chu Bingsong think so much, in his opinion, Chu Xi has the emperor's blue eyes, and has the love of the prince's concubine and Mrs. Hou, and Brother Hong is naturally the best to follow Chu Xi now.

"What's inappropriate, you are brothers and sisters, and you talk about the rule that men and women don't sit at the same table at the age of seven. Besides, you pack up and let Brother Hong live in the East Wing. Chu Bingsong couldn't refute it at all, but after thinking about it, he said: "Yanxue's body is just getting better now, Brother Hong has a misunderstanding about her, and when the misunderstanding is resolved, I will let her take Brother Hong away." With that, he stood up. looked at Brother Hong.

Brother Hong'er is a big ghost, and when he got up, he saluted respectfully to Chu Xi: "Please also ask the big sister to teach more in the future." ”

Seeing this, Chu Xi didn't say anything: "Whatever my sister knows, I will teach you one by one." Chu Xi smiled.

Chu Bingsong looked at her and smiled, and said in a deep voice: "You heard here that a maid ring will not be easily bullied, Brother Hong, you have to take care of it, if you don't take care of it well, I think you can ask the emperor to play again, is it possible to delay you for a year and then get married." After Chu Bingsong finished speaking, he walked away, leaving only two servants to serve, one is a delicate girl who wants to poke her nose into the sky to welcome spring, and the other is Lei Pozi with a pair of triangular eyes.

As soon as Chu Bingsong left, the two slaves and maids were about to go to heaven.

"Miss, you can call some people to help us clean the east wing, our little boy has a little rest, but there is no spacious and comfortable place." Yingchun smiled.

Xiao Fu'er couldn't see it: "You don't have long hands, you don't know how to clean up by yourself." ”

"This is what the master ordered you to clean up, and I am only responsible for taking care of the little boy." Yingchun hurriedly said, and looked at Chu Xi: "Miss, don't you want to delay getting married for a year, the slave maid has no other meaning, that is"

"Throw her out of here." Chu Xi looked at the noisy Yingchun and said.

When Chu Xi's words fell, Xiao Fu'er immediately beckoned two powerful mothers-in-law to come, directly blocked Yingchun's mouth, lifted her up and threw her into the yard, and she grinned in pain.

Brother Hong is smart and knows how to behave, so he looked at Chu Ji with an innocent face: "Big sister, can you call two mothers-in-law to help me clean up together, and I'll give them a reward when I go back." ”

Chu Xi didn't want to care about this, looked at the green sprouts, and asked her to go down to make arrangements.

"I usually let people clean the east wing regularly, and now it can be lived, you go and take a look, and tell me if there is anything missing." Chu Xi said lightly.

Brother Hong answered, took Lei Pozi's hand and went out.

Lu Ya stood on the side and looked at Chu Xi: "This little boy looks quite well-behaved?" ”

Chu Xi watched him walk out of the door lightly, indifferently stepping past Yingchun who was screaming on the ground, smiling lightly; "Just like my father." They are all cold-blooded and ruthless lords.

"Then miss, do we have to take care of him in the future?"

"Don't worry about it, send meals regularly every day, if he comes, let him wait in the flower hall, except for the flower hall, he is not allowed to enter the conservatory and room." Chu Ji instructed, this Brother Hong, like Chu Bingsong, is a young man with wisdom, but it's a pity that he has this temperament.

After explaining this, Chu Xi asked people to call Lu Tan over, and at this time, Lu Tan had already taken a shower and changed his clothes.

"Miss, I've found you someone you're absolutely satisfied with." Green Sandalwood said excitedly.

Lu Ya poured hot tea for Chu Xi, added two pieces of silver charcoal, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you went out yesterday to find someone." ”

"Hey, hey." Lu Tan smiled, sat down naturally on the warm couch next to Chu Xi, and said with a smile: "Let me tell you, when I went, this old guy was still deceiving people, obviously he was too old to walk, and he was still trying to deceive people, planning to wait for himself to die, give himself a golden body, be greedy, this person"

Green Sprout looked at her and stuffed the pastry into her mouth, and smiled: "Then, what about this person, can you please come back?" ”

"He's old like that, where do I dare to drag him back, in case half of the Dao'er dies, then I don't suffer a big loss, but I heard that he used to be the junior brother of the abbot of Hanshan Temple, and the Tao is okay, but then he went down the mountain for some reason, and began to tell fortunes and exorcise ghosts everywhere, and the ordinary people shouted a great immortal, I knew at a glance that the blood split out of the peach wood sword was clearly the blood water sealed with wax pills, and it melted away when it was roasted on the fire, and then he pretended to be a ghost, and the peach wood sword was then drawn, The blood came out, and everyone was stunned. ”

Chu Xi saw that she was happy, and said, "Then, you said that you found someone for me, who is it?" ”

Lu Tan hurriedly swallowed the pastry in his mouth, patted the scum on his hand, and said with a smile: "That monk Dharma name Huineng, he has a disciple of the lineage, the Dharma name is clear, and now he looks like he is forty or fifty years old, with a white beard, and it looks like that, relying on his master's name, he is also abducted and deceived everywhere, but he is a little better than his master." ”

"Which point?" Green Sprout asked with interest.

"This guy is clear about the affairs in the capital, his master is in charge of the outside of the city, and he is a living bodhisattva in other states and counties, and he resolutely does not come to the capital. He is good, he specializes in running in the capital, I heard that some time ago, it was calculated that Lord Han Min Han would be imprisoned, no, Lord Han is still eating in prison, and he opened the market in the circle of noblewomen in the capital at once. "Green Sandalwood Road.

When Chu Ji heard this, he also felt a little interesting, he could calculate the matter of Lord Han, could it be a coincidence? Or is he also involved, knowing that it is inevitable?

"Where is he now?" Chu Xi asked.

"Now in a house donated by the so-called 'pilgrims' chanting sutras and chanting Buddha, I can't move at all, this guy is so bold, I take a knife to his neck and he is indifferent." Green Sandalwood said annoyedly.

Chu Ji thought of Han Min and the little girl who was raised in his house, and always felt that there was something to do with this matter, it seemed that she still had to think about meeting Han Da again, and now that King Xiaoyao was also imprisoned, it was a good time for him to come out.

"Miss, the slave still doesn't understand, if you want to invite a monk, why don't you invite the presiding master of Hanshan Temple?" Green Sprout said on the side.

Chu Xi smiled: "What I'm looking for is such a fake monk." After that, he looked at her: "I'm a little hungry, you can go and help me prepare some soup." ”

Lu Ya hurriedly put down the work in his hand and turned his head to go out, Lu Tan was still thinking about how to take down this clear space monk, so he heard Chu Xi say: "Your enemy has been found?" ”

Lu Tan was stunned, looking a little nervous: "Miss"

Chu Xi didn't give her a chance to lie, but smiled lightly: "Yang resigned early this morning, saying that he met you on the road, you came back from outside the city, and I smelled the blood on your body, and I also saw your red soles." ”

Green sandalwood's face turned a little pale. It's completely different from Fang Cai's lively appearance: "Miss, I, I" I don't want to lie to you, but I can't tell you either.

Chu Xi sighed lightly and stood up from the warm couch: "You don't have to say it, but I don't want you to lie to me, okay?" ”

"Okay." Lu Tan nodded hurriedly, but his eyes were already slightly wet.

Chu Xiwaner: "Go down and rest, I must not have slept well yesterday." ”

Faced with Chu Xi's non-blame, Lu Tan was grateful, answered, and walked out. Just as he was about to step out of the door, he paused, looked back at Chu Xi who got up and went inside, bit his lip slightly, as if he had made up his mind, and turned his head to go out.

The Pavilion is still very quiet, but outside the Pavilion is still shrouded in a dark cloud.

Chu Xiuxiu and Chu Dai'er still went out early and returned late, Chu Bingsong seemed to know what they were doing, but they didn't care much, only Chu Zhenzhen, who was grounded and had a bad reputation, and Qin Xue who was lying on the bed.

"Ma'am, drink the medicine." A mother-in-law came in with a decoction from outside, Qin Xue felt a little uncomfortable today, and wanted to vomit when she smelled the medicine, and said, "If you don't drink it today, you can take it out." ”

The woman paused and glanced at the waiting maids on both sides. Yahuan understood, stepped forward and pressed Qin Xue.

Qin Xue was shocked, and looked at the woman with a pair of bloodshot eyes: "What do you want to do!" I'm still the eldest lady of Chu Mansion, and I'm still your master, you can't kill me if you want to! ”

The woman smiled: "How dare we, it's just that the eldest lady, your illness is not good for a day, and the people outside will have to point fingers at the master for a few more days, and we are all for your good." After that, the woman's face smiled coldly, pinched Qin Xue's chin, and poured the medicine directly into her, until she choked her snot and tears with an embarrassed look, then let go of her hand and said with a respectful smile: "Madame has used the medicine, just rest well, the slaves and maids don't bother." With that, the maids and daughters all retreated, and she was the only one left in the empty room.

She finally eased up, and then sneered, laughing and tears falling down, but she couldn't wait to hammer the bed: "Chu Bingsong, you hurt me!" You're hurting me!! I'll let you know what the result of the fish die and the net is broken! ”

Qin Xue raised her head, her face was as hideous as a demon crawling out of hell: "Chu Bingsong, you wait for me!" ”

Chu Xi returned to the room. Lin Qingyu had already gotten up and sat in front of the bookcase in her room, drawing something with a serious face.

Chu Xi told General Yang about it, and said with some worry: "This flood happened, and King Xiaoyao will definitely take the opportunity to come out." ”

Lin Qingyu bowed: "I can't prevent it this time, the emperor doesn't want to kill him, so we can only let him put the knife on the emperor's neck." Lin Qingyu raised his eyes and smiled, as if he had finished painting the painting under his hand, and looked at it carefully, and was very satisfied.

Chu Xi looked at it from a distance, it seemed to be a portrait of a sub-character, and when she got closer, this guy actually painted herself.

Chu Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, but Lin Qingyu smiled and said, "How about it, if I'm not here, you can still see the painting and think about people." ”

Chu Xi glanced at him lightly: "Are you going somewhere?" ”

Lin Qingyu bowed slightly: "The people of Southern Xinjiang seem to have changed their minds about assassination, and the invasion of the frontier seems to have stopped suddenly, so I plan to take this opportunity to go back to Wuji Pavilion to see if I can find a way to completely solve the poison on my body." ”

"May I ask how your poison got in?" Chu Ji said.

Lin Qingyu chuckled: "Of course you can." With that, he walked out from behind the bookcase, hugged her in his arms, felt the temperature on her body, and chuckled: "When I was born, I was poisoned by this. The reason why my father and mother have been traveling abroad is actually to escape the imperial court, and the other is to be able to find an antidote. I heard my mother say that when there is a woman who likes my father very much, but my father just wants to marry my mother, and he protects my mother very tightly, but the person has nothing to do, so he put poison on me who was just born, but what I didn't expect is that I was surprised since I was a child."

"Alright." Chu Ji saw that he was talking nonsense behind him, so he interrupted him: "Since you don't say it, I won't ask, I know that you have your thoughts, but this matter will not be hidden from me for the rest of my life, right?" ”

"Nature." Lin Qingyu listened to her words, the big stone in his heart fell, and he exhaled a long breath: "I know that you are different from other women, you are my concubine, a unique concubine." ”

Chu Xiwan'er let him hug him: "How long will you go this time?" ”

"It won't be long, as short as two or three days, as long as half a month, if you can't find me, I'll come back." Lin Qingyu smiled.

Chu Ji listened. I didn't ask any more questions, as for the third senior sister, as for that child, it would never be an obstacle between them!

At this time, outside the city, a carriage stopped, and someone came with news: "Go back and wait, the pavilion master will go back in a few days." ”

The thin lips of the woman in the carriage were slightly raised, and a soft voice came: "Okay, then I'll go back and wait." After that, the carriage curtain was lifted slightly, and it happened that two fast horses galloped by, and a woman in a fiery red tight dress in front of her raised a horse whip, full of joy: "Bearded, you can't catch up with me!" ”

Zheng Yun smiled: "Then you wait!" With that, he took hold of the reins and hurriedly pursued him.

The woman in the carriage looked at it, and her eyes were bent into crescent moons: "I didn't expect Zheng Yun to like such a woman, it's really strange." ”

"Are you going to meet Zheng Yun?" The bystander asked.

The woman slowly lowered the curtain and withdrew her delicate fingers: "No need, let's go back and wait for Qingyu." ”

"Yes."

With that, the carriage turned its head around and slowly headed out of the city.

Zheng Yun seemed to feel something, turned his head to look, but only saw an ordinary carriage. Zheng Yun shook his head, turned his head and caught up with Yun Songyi again, and went to the city together.

Today, there are two more porridge sheds in the city. are all located not far from the Yan Mansion, with the signboard of the Yan Mansion, but when the two uncles of the Yan family planned to ask someone to go over to help, the soup kitchen was ignorant of it.

"It must be Il's Nizi's people, who made so many people come to give porridge, and now she ignores us, what does she want to do?" The second lady of the Yan Mansion said.

The eldest lady smiled: "A little girl, what do you have to do with her, as long as she doesn't take that money to pick up those people in Jiyun Mansion." With that, the two turned their heads and were about to leave, but Yun Songyi also happened to arrive, followed by a man.

When the two of them looked at it, they hurriedly turned around and left, not wanting to talk to her at all.

Yun Songyi seemed to have long been used to it, and didn't mind at all, Zheng Yun got off the horse and asked, "You two aunts don't seem to like you, is it because you are usually too domineering?" ”

"Am I domineering?" Yun Songyi turned over and dismounted neatly, and said with a smile: "If I am really arrogant, can I still allow you to keep this big beard?" Don't forget how you promised me, huh. After that, he walked forward, looking at the homeless people who were lining up to lead the porridge and rice, Yun Songyi also sighed lightly, turned his head to find Aunt Hong, and asked with a smile;" You were sent by Sister Sister'er? ”

Aunt Hong saluted respectfully, and Yun Songyi quietly took out three thousand taels of silver tickets and stuffed them into her hand: "You go and see if you can buy some cotton clothes or charcoal or something in the city." Give everyone points. ”

"Yes." Aunt Hong responded with a smile, she sighed at this point, Chu Xi and Yun Songyi, looking at them are all young ladies who don't know how to suffer, but they are very good in their bones.

As he was talking, Yan Jifu heard the news out of nowhere, and hurriedly came out to find Yun Songyi: "Sister, you're back." ”

"Cousin, doesn't it mean that your son is in spring, why are you still here?" Yun Songyi asked with a smile, although she didn't get along well with a few aunts, she didn't have a dislike for these brothers and sisters.

Yan Jifu looked around, there was no Qianying he wanted to see, and he smiled reluctantly: "I was just about to go out, Ming'er and Brother Li are in the same examination room, so I want to meet him." ”

"Li Gongzi." Yun Songyi naturally knew that it was Li Xiao: "I was called up the mountain by my grandfather early in the morning to guide me, and I should be studying at home at this time, didn't you disturb in the past." ”

Yan Jifu smiled: "How come, besides, I just want to relax before the exam, and I heard that his aunt seems to be sick, and when it comes to filial piety, he should also go back to see it, and concentrate on studying books, so he doesn't neglect family affection, right?" ”

Looking at what Yan Jifu said, Yun Songyi looked him up and down again, wearing a brand-new lake-blue robe, wearing a rat-gray cloak that is not often worn, and his hair was neatly tied up with a white jade crown, looking extraordinarily energetic.

Seeing this, Yun Songyi immediately knew what he was thinking: "Don't you want to go to see Sister Xi'er?" ”

"What nonsense" Yan Jifu's face flushed slightly, and he hurriedly turned over and said, "If you don't go, if you don't go, I'll go by myself." ”

Yun Songyi looked back at Zheng Yun and shook her head slightly, Yan Jifu was somewhat disappointed when she saw that she didn't go, but she didn't say anything more, she got into the carriage and went to the Li Mansion.

Chu Xi explained to Lin Qingyu again, and when he left, he began to feel empty in his heart, turned his head to look at the self-portrait he had drawn, laughed, and waited until the ink was dry, and then carefully rolled it up and put it away.

Chu Xi was about to take out a miscellaneous book sent by Mrs. Hou last time and continue to read, when a voice came from outside, saying that someone from the Jiang family had come.

Someone from the Jiang family?

Chu Xi's first reaction was still an accident, the Jiang family had nothing to do with her, how could they suddenly come to look for her.

"Who's coming?" Chu Xi walked out of the inner room, and saw Yahuan and said, "It's the young lady of the Jiang family." ”

The young lady is Ning's, she just went and thought that Ning's was simple, but later found out that it was not, it didn't have much to do with herself playing with her mind like this, she really didn't want to see it: "Tell Mrs. Ning, my body is not convenient, please go back first, and when I am free in the future, I will visit again." ”

"Yes." The girl took the order and went down.

Chu Xi leaned on the warm couch, almost counting the days with her fingers.

As soon as the spring exam is over tomorrow, it will be late March, and Zhao Xunyan will not be able to stay in prison for long, and when he comes out, it is the time of the flood, he can't keep it all to do something on the flood, she has to find something else to stumble him.

Chu Ji thought to herself for an afternoon, and soon it was dark, and Lu Tan also rested, and came early to serve, but today is destined to be no peace.

"Miss, my cousin and the son of the Yan Mansion are here, saying that they want to see you." Another girl came to report.

Chu Xi glanced at the green sprouts with slightly tight palms, and chuckled: "Green sprouts, you go and tell your cousin, I am not in good health today, you ask him to go back to review tightly, and don't stay in the prime minister's mansion for long." Now Qin Xue and Chu Zhenzhen seem to be stunned, and when they see someone, they are about to tear down the bones and swallow them in their stomachs, she doesn't want to let Li Xiao have an accident at this juncture.

Chu Xi's words fell, and he saw Yahuan who was talking back and forth: "Now my cousin is asking the eldest lady to say goodbye in Ruyi Garden, and I heard that the second lady also invited him over."

Chu Xi covered her forehead with a little headache, why can't this Li Xiao come late, so that she can be clean and clean.

"Go get my cloak, and come with me to see the green sandalwood and green buds." Chu Xi got up, Chu Bingsong and Qin Xue killed each other, it was something she had expected a long time ago, she planned not to interfere, and directly watched them torture each other, but she didn't want Li Xiao to break in.

"Miss, come over after dinner." Xiao Fu'er said busily.

Chu Xi shook her head slightly: "No." With that, he hurried towards Ruyi Garden.

When Chu Ji arrived at Ruyi Garden, he saw Yan Jifu standing in the flower hall, he saw Chu Ji coming, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Miss Chu." ”

"Where's my cousin?" Chu Ji said.

Yan Jifu didn't know why: "I was talking inside, Mrs. Chu said something that I couldn't listen to, so I came out and waited." ”

After Yan Jifu finished speaking, Chu Ji turned his head and walked in, and when he entered, he saw Li Xiaozheng taking something from Qin Xue's hand.

"Cousin Xiao, mother." Chu Xi stepped forward to salute.

When Qin Xue saw that it was Chu Xi, she seemed to understand: "Your speed is much faster than your father." ”

Chu Xi frowned slightly, and then noticed that something was wrong with Li Xiao's expression: "Cousin Xiao, you"

"Big sister, Aunt Fang Cai told me that the reason why the second sister was provoked by you last night?" Li Xiao looked at Chu Xi with disbelief in her eyes.

Chu Xi's expression was cold in her heart: "With one side of the word, did Cousin Xiao start to doubt me?" ”

Li Xiao hurriedly shook her head, full of apologies, but said: "I didn't mean that, it's just that my aunt told me a lot, and said that my uncle wanted to poison her."

"I don't know this, Cousin Xiao, it's not early, you should go back, tomorrow is the Spring Exam"

Before Chu Xi's words were finished, Qin Xue said: "Forget it, Li Xiao, I know you are a good boy, but I really don't want to live anymore, you better give me back my poison." ”

Poison?

Chu Xi remembered the bottle she handed to Li Xiao just now, and frowned slightly, but Li Xiao clenched the bottle tightly: "No, I can't watch you die." ”

"But if I stay in this mansion, sooner or later it will be a dead word." Qin Xue's face was pale, and her voice was crying. Li Xiao came over this time, she was really surprised, there was no poison in that bottle, but she couldn't let go of this opportunity, if she let it go, she would definitely be tortured to death by Chu Bingsong.

Chu Xi looked at Li Xiao. She knew that he was kind-hearted, so she just took a step back, thinking about it, Chu Bingsong should have also received the news and rushed here, the relationship between Qin Xue and Chu Bingsong has now reached this situation, Chu Bingsong will never allow her to leave the mansion.

Sure enough, just when Li Xiao decided to take Qin Xue back to the Li Mansion, Chu Bingsong stepped into the house with one foot.

"What are you talking about?" Chu Bingsong's expression was uneasy, and there was a doctor behind him.

Li Xiao thought that this was meant for him, so he stood up with a heavy face: "Uncle"

Before he finished speaking, Chu Bingsong hurriedly walked to Qin Xue's side: "Aren't you sick again." Then he turned his head to look at the doctor: "Doctor, come and see." ”

The doctor was also very cooperative and hurriedly stepped forward to take the pulse, but Li Xiao was a little confused.

"What's going on?"

Qin Xue glared at Chu Bingsong fiercely: "I'm not crazy, you don't want to slander me, Chu Bingsong, I warn you, if you dare to kill me, I guarantee that the dirty things you have done will definitely be known to the whole world!" ”

Chu Bingsong's face was dark as if he was about to drip water, and after glancing at the doctor, the doctor understood, and hurriedly took out a silver needle: "Madam, don't worry, I'll give you a needle and you will be a lot more sober." ”

"Stay away from me!" Qin Xue shouted uncontrollably, as if she was stunned, and Li Xiao also believed her words that she was a little crazy, after all, she had also been paralyzed by quadriplegia due to excessive fright some time ago.

Qin Xue knew that Li Xiao was her last straw, and begged loudly: "Xiao'er, save your aunt, Xiao'er"

Li Xiao couldn't bear it, so he stepped forward and knelt down: "Uncle, just let your aunt go." ”

Chu Bingsong was also able to bear it, and calmly helped him up: "Silly boy, what are you talking about, if you really believe in your uncle, will your uncle want to harm your aunt?" ”

"But"

"She hasn't taken medicine well in the past few days, and as soon as the incident last night stimulated, she began to be in a trance again and said a lot of nonsense, so I went to invite the doctor to come over again and again, and when the doctor prescribed medicine and took the medicine, she was fine." Chu Bingsong patiently explained.

Li Xiao was also blindsided, and he didn't know who to believe, at this time, Qin Xue had been sealed by the doctor's needle, and he couldn't speak at all, and Chu Bingsong blocked his sight again, so it seemed that Qin Xue seemed to be quiet.

Chu Bingsong said: "You're going to spring tomorrow, but are you ready?" I heard that the prince has high hopes for you, and your Li family depends on you to glorify your ancestors. Chu Bingsong said as he pulled him out, Li Xiao looked back at the doctor who was busy with his work, and had to follow Chu Bingsong away.

Chu Xi sighed slightly, and turned her head to look at Qin Xue, who was staring at her eyes in despair, with a faint expression. When my mother was tortured and killed by them, was she so helpless?

She didn't know, but because of these people, her mother cut off the relationship with the closest Yang family, and was betrayed by Chu Bingsong, a negative man, and was finally made an adult by Qin Xue, so she didn't feel how pitiful Qin Xue was now. It doesn't matter if she's cold-blooded, or if she's vicious, now she's decided.

"Let's go." After Chu Xi finished speaking, he stepped up and left.

Chu Bingsong kept sending Li Xiao outside the mansion, and then said with a smile: "You go back first, I still have the ink I used when I was admitted to the top of the competition, and I will send it to you later." ”

"Xiangye is really generous." Yan Jifu didn't know why on the side, and said with a smile.

Li Xiao's expression was still calm, but it was because he couldn't tell who was right and who was wrong.

Chu Bingsong simply said a few words, then turned his head and left, before leaving, he ordered: "No one is allowed to step into Ruyi Garden in the future, I heard it!" ”

"Yes." The others were so frightened that they responded, Chu Bingsong glanced at Chu Xi who was standing at the fork in the road, his face tightened, and he stepped away.

Chu Xi waited for him to leave, and then walked to the door.

Yan Jifu was also waiting for Chu Ji to come over and refused to leave, and when he saw her coming, he was full of joy and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Miss Chu." ”

Chu Xi returned the salute, and then looked at Li Xiao, who was embarrassed to look at her, and stepped forward and smiled; "Cousin Xiao is going to take the exam tomorrow, you shouldn't be in a bad mood for trivial things, otherwise, wouldn't it be a pity to waste ten years of cold windows?"

Li Xiao listened, and then raised her head: "But aunt she"

"Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and Cousin Xiao dares to guarantee that what he sees must be right? People are blind, and things should be seen with heart. Chu Ji said lightly, and didn't plan to tell Li Xiao anything: "Don't worry, although my mother is sick, my father and her are married anyway, and it won't be okay." ”

Li Xiao listened, and just sighed deeply: "I just suddenly didn't know what to do, as if the sage books I read before were not taught." ”

"Liyi, benevolence, wisdom and faith, everything that should be taught in the book has been taught, and when Cousin Xiao has more contact with it in the future, he will understand." Chu Xi smiled faintly.

Seeing that Chu Xi had always looked calm and indifferent, Li Xiao's still restless heart suddenly settled down, and he apologized to Chu Xi: "Big sister, I originally came to look for you today, but I didn't want such a thing to happen, it's really"

"Cousin Xiao doesn't have to mind." Chu Xi smiled and said: "Wait for Cousin Xiao's high school, if you are still worried about your mother, you can ask the emperor to invite the imperial doctor to come over." Chu Xi said with a smile.

Li Xiao's eyes lit up, and she nodded hurriedly: "I understand." Chu Siwan, after a few more words, turned his head and left.

If you invite the imperial doctor over, you will definitely be able to find out that Qin Xue has been poisoned, who else can be suspected? Even if he can find a scapegoat, when the time comes, the so-called senior monk will come, and Chu Bingsong will not be soft

Chu Xi walked back slowly, the road back to the Jinge seemed to be extraordinarily long, and the green buds and green sandalwood did not speak, and followed quietly, it seemed that the night sky of the capital was also completely quiet on the eve of spring.

Chu Ji woke up early the next morning in a noisy noise, and when she heard the sound of arguments outside, she faintly felt a headache.

Lu Tan whispered outside: "Miss, are you awake?" Yingchun next to the little boy outside fought with Xiao Fu'er. ”

"You go and help." Chu Ji said helplessly.

Lu Tan seemed to be waiting for this sentence, and was about to leave, Chu Xi added: "Don't kill you." ”

"Don't worry, the slave has a good grasp of it." After saying that, he slipped out of the smoke and looked at Yingchun, who was pinching Xiao Fu'er's neck. He stepped forward and grabbed her by the neck, kicked her at the ankle, and neatly put her down.

Xiao Fu'er saw that Lu Tan finally made a move, so she knew that it was Chu Xiyun, and sat on Yingchun's stomach as soon as she took a step, pinching her neck with both hands: "I asked you to grab something from me, where do you think this is, this is Zhujin Pavilion, you actually dare to snatch Miss's soup, and throw the soup bowl on the ground, see if I don't kill you!" Xiao Fu'er was so angry when she remembered that the soup that her mother had stewed all night was ruined like this.

Aunt Fu hurriedly ran over when she heard the news, and pulled up Xiao Fu'er: "Okay, okay, you have to be forgiving and forgiving." ”

Xiao Fu'er snorted, stood aside and looked at her dissatisfied: "You, you don't understand the rules at all, next time you do this, I will strangle you." ”

Of course, everyone knows that Xiao Fu'er is just bluffing her, otherwise she would have been pinching for a long time, and she wouldn't have seen Yingchun die.

Yingchun's delicate little face was full of dirt, and she cried directly with hatred, and when she cried, Brother Hong and Mrs. Lei hurriedly rushed out.

"Sister Yingchun, what's wrong with you?" Brother Hong didn't know what was going on, but Lei Pozi was very clear, and hurriedly protected Brother Hong behind him and said: "Little boy, she is bullying us with few people, and the eldest lady is also bullying us with these slaves." ”

When Brother Hong heard this, his face immediately changed, and he glared at Xiao Fu'er gloomily: "You subordinates, why do you do it?" ”

"She knocked over Miss's soup, and she made a lot of nonsense, and she wanted to beat me"

"Whoever allowed you to call yourself 'me', you are a, don't you know?" Brother Hong'er's scolding tone was very similar to Chu Zhenzhen's, Aunt Fu looked at Lei Pozi, and then remembered that this Lei Pozi was not serving in Chu Zhenzhen's courtyard.

Lei Pozi whispered a few more words in Brother Hong'er's ear, Brother Hong looked even more annoyed, raised his hand and pointed at Xiao Fu'er and said, ", don't kneel down for me yet!" ”

Xiao Fu'er looked confused: "Little boy, it's not the slave who is wrong, why are you?"

"Can't you hear your master! I think you're the opposite, and I'll tell my father when I turn around, and let him throw you all out and feed the dogs."

"Father doesn't have the same breath as you." Chu Xi stood at the door and said lightly, when she came from Lu Tan to speak, she had already gotten up, and watched at the door for a long time, and when she saw that Brother Hong was manipulated by those two subordinates, and her innocent face showed such malice, she didn't have the heart to bear him, although he was young. But who says children can't do murderous things.

As soon as Brother Hong saw that it was Chu Xi, he remembered Chu Bingsong's words and wanted to slap her, so he hurriedly recovered his innocent appearance and ran towards Chu Xi: "Big sister, you are awake, Brother Hong misses you." ”

Hearing this, Chu Xi frowned inexplicably and glanced at Mrs. Lei; "What did you instigate Brother Hong to say?"

When the Lei Pozi heard this, she hurriedly exaggerated and sighed: "Miss, how dare the slave and maid instigate the master, your heart-wrenching words are irresponsibly said, but you can take the slave's life." ”

Xiao Fu'er was so angry: "You are still quibbling, you are instigating Brother Hong"

"You" Brother Hong was about to scold when he opened his mouth, but he was hurriedly stopped by Lei Pozi: "Little boy, this is the eldest lady's girl, the eldest lady will deal with it." ”

Chu Xi sneered, she thought that if she just said a few words, she would punish Xiao Fu'er because she was afraid of face.

"Little Fu'er." Chu Xi spoke.

"The slave is here." Xiao Fu'er lowered her head aggrievedly, but she didn't have the slightest intention of quibbling.

Chu Xi looked at the smugness in Lei Pozi's eyes, and said: "You are also tired this morning, go back and rest, this month's monthly hair is doubled, count me as rewarding you." ”

Xiao Fu'er was stunned, and when she saw Lei Pozi's face of eating, she almost couldn't hold back her laughter. Busy and happy yes.

Lei Pozi pushed Brother Hong, and Brother Hong hurriedly said: "Big sister, she just humiliated me"

"Yes, I've been standing in the doorway watching and listening the whole time, how come I've never heard her humiliate you for half a word? Brother Hong, lying is a very bad character, especially when lying and harming others, you must not do so in the future, remember? Chu Xi bent down and looked at Brother Hong'er and smiled.

Brother Hong was stunned, and hurriedly turned his head to look at Lei Pozi, Lei Pozi gritted his teeth slightly: "Miss, you say this, you just want to protect that Yahuan, anyway, this is your yard, you can say whatever you want, and it is Brother Hong who suffers."

"I just reasoned with Brother Hong, lying and hurting others is a very bad character, and you will commit it, it seems that this memory is not long." Chu Xi straightened up, tilted his head slightly and looked at the eager green sandalwood: "Green sandalwood, drag it down, hit ten boards, and have a long memory." ”

Lu Tan smiled, and was busy, when Lei Pozi had not yet come to his senses. He tripped her to the ground, grabbed her legs and dragged her to the bench.

The mothers-in-law of the Pavilion are also very efficient, and the board was quickly taken over, but in the blink of an eye, the crackling board was hit, and Yingchun watched from the side, and was directly scared stupid.

Lei Pozi shouted: "Little boy, save the slave, save the slave and the maid."

Brother Hong panicked, and hurriedly turned his head to look at Chu Xi, but Chu Xi smiled and said: "It's extremely bad to lie and hurt people, Brother Hong can remember it." ”

Brother Hong nodded hurriedly: "Can the big sister let go of Lei Pozi?" ”

"Naturally, since Brother Hong has spoken." Chu Xi glanced at the green sandalwood, and the hands of the mother-in-law immediately stopped, and this time, they quickly hit seven or eight boards, and there was no blood, but the pain made Lei Pozi's face sweat.

Brother Hong breathed a sigh of relief, Chu Ji glanced at Brother Hong, there was still hatred on his little face, and he shook his head helplessly: "Yingchun, why don't you take the little boy to breakfast?" After breakfast, I took it directly to my father to say goodbye, and then sent it to my husband for class. ”

Yingchun is now half a word and I don't dare to say more, thinking that Brother Hong is now a lone seedling in the house, and everyone will think a little highest. Everyone will let it go, but I don't know that Chu Xi is so unafraid.

Lu Tan glanced at Lei Pozi, who was screaming and screaming, and said, "Get up, I'm going to take away the stool." ”

"You little prostitutes, I'll clean you up sooner or later" Lei Pozi muttered quietly while struggling to get up, thinking that Green Sandalwood couldn't hear it, but she didn't know that Green Sandalwood's ear power was many times better than ordinary people.

Lu Tan looked at this evil woman, kicked the stool away, and Lei Pozi fell directly to the ground, so painful that she screamed again.

"Hmph, tricky mother-in-law, this is a pavilion, not your little broken yard, next time you dare to bully people indiscriminately, it won't be as simple as ten boards." After Lu Tan finished speaking, he turned his head and left directly, turned his head to the hateful eyes of Brother Shanghong, frowned slightly, and didn't care too much.

Back in the conservatory, Lu Tan said, "Will they go to sue the master?" ”

"Yes." Chu Xi sat on the warm couch, looking at the breakfast on the small coffee table, and enjoyed it contentedly.

When a few people heard this, they were a little worried, but Xiao Fu'er was busy blaming herself, saying that she shouldn't care.

Chu Ji smiled. put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and looked at Xiao Fu'er: "It's right not to worry too much, but it's not blindly forbearing." But next time you do it, you have to use your brain, if there is no green sandalwood to stand out for you today, with your small body, who do you think you can beat? ”

When Xiao Fu'er heard this, she smiled shyly, but she was moved by Chu Xi's tolerance in her heart.

"What if the master comes over to make trouble in a moment?" Green Sprouts said with some concern.

"He's not coming." Chu Xi smiled faintly, Chu Bingsong was so anxious about Qin Xue's affairs now, he wouldn't care about such a trivial matter at all, as long as Brother Hong was not injured and was still alive and well, it would be fine.

After breakfast, Chu Xi explained again, and then took the carriage and went out, today she was going to find Han Min's family and the little girl, Han Daren can't always be in Dali Temple.

Knowing the news of Chu Xi's Chu Mansion, Chu Zhenzhen began to move, and the maid next to her was about to cry at this time: "Second Miss, the slave really doesn't dare"

"If you don't dare, I'll let you die!" Chu Zhenzhen threatened fiercely, Chu Xi dared to retaliate against her like this, she let Chu Zhen see clearly whether she was easy to bully!

That girl's face was pale, and the scars on her face that she had been scratched by Chu Zhenzhen last time were still there, and now she heard Chu Zhenzhen's words. If it weren't for the fact that she still had her parents at home, she really wouldn't even have the heart to be: "Second Miss, if the slave does this, sooner or later it will be a dead word"

"You want your family to die with you?" Chu Zhenzhen grabbed her weakness, and the girl hurriedly begged for mercy. After seeing that Chu Zhenzhen had no room to turn, she wiped her tears and walked out of the courtyard and went to the front yard to go to the study.

Brother Hong was about to go to Mr. to take classes at this time, but he saw a pink-clothed girl ring walking out of the side, looked at her red and swollen eyes and face, and said in disgust: "Who are you?" ”

"Slave Slave Slave"

The girl was still a little hesitant, Yingchun looked at it, pouted and pulled Brother Hong'er and said, "Let's go, I don't know where to come from." ”

The two were about to leave, and the girl gritted her teeth when she saw this, stepped forward and hugged Brother Hong'er and was about to jump into the lake not far ahead, but before she could jump in, three or five stout women rushed out from behind her and pinned her to the ground.
