Chapter 178: Who Knows the Truth?
Xu Zijin drowned, wearing the wedding dress that had just visited her, and drowned under the landscape corridor on the road back to Changyiju from the front yard. They all said that he was drunk at the time, and the subordinate was broken up again, so he accidentally fell into the pool at the bottom of the cloister, and no one knew. By the time they found out, they were out of breath.
At that time, she was too sad to think about it, and when she received Zijin's suicide note, she realized that there was something she couldn't understand. Zijin turned out to be a light boat by his side, and that person was very loyal and very thoughtful. If he was so drunk that he couldn't even walk steadily, how could the light boat be broken up and let him go back to the new house alone?
There must be something hidden in this, but in the Xu Mansion before, she didn't have time to deal with the old lady, so where did she have time to investigate. Now it's okay, Xu Zili is willing to see people, the landscape is back, all the conditions are there, it's up to her to act.
An'an lay down in the quilt to sleep, his hand habitually put it to the side, but it was empty, and the beautiful scenery was stunned for a moment, then closed his eyes and turned over to sleep.
"If there is no other command, the slave and maid will go down." Yushi bowed slightly towards Shen Shanshui, ready to go out.
"Please wait." The delicate young man spoke in a serious tone, and when Yushi turned around, he saw that he no longer had such a soft smile on his face, his eyes were full of seriousness, and the lines on his face were also stiff: "I still want to ask the girl about something." ”
His face was inexplicably red, Yushi turned around and bent his knees slightly at him: "Calling the slave and maid Yushi is, the princess's younger brother is naturally half a master, so there is no need to use honorifics to the slave and maid." ”
Shen Shanshui paused, looked at her sincerely, and said: "I don't care about the master and the subordinate, but you seem to be a very close person to my sister, so I want you to ask, what is the matter between my sister and Yan Wangye?" ”
Yushi pursed his lips, remembering that they were about to leave, and couldn't help but sigh long: "The matter between the princess and the princess, starting from the very beginning, can be regarded as a strange fate......"
Shen Shanshui listened solemnly, Yushi tried his best to pick up good words, and couldn't bear to be sad about this young man, but his master had no less hardships along the way, and no matter how he said it, it couldn't be smooth sailing.
In the end, she also saved the matter of the prince's reconciliation, and only smiled: "The master will have the protection of the prince in the future, no matter where he goes, he will not be bullied again." ”
Shen Shanshui listened, his throat kept moving slightly, and he looked like he was about to cry, but in the end, he was a man, and after listening to it, he suppressed all his emotions well, and only bowed his head to Yu Shidao: "Thank you." ”
Yushi hurriedly waved his hand, signaling that it was okay for him, and then withdrew with a red face.
"Our master's brother is really ......"
Back in the room, sitting next to Jinyi, Yushi couldn't help but admire: "I really don't know what words to use to describe him, it's so beautiful." ”
Jinyi glanced at her and said helplessly: "Are you still in the mood to look at the master's younger brother?" The master is going to make peace with the prince, and if we leave the capital, we will never see her again. ”
As soon as he mentioned this, Yushi's face collapsed, and he pulled the sleeve of the brocade shirt sadly: "What should I do?" The prince doesn't listen to persuasion at all, have you looked for Linfeng? ”
"I've looked for it, but it's useless." Jin Yi shook his head: "Now that the master and the prince are at a standoff, and neither side has a step, let's think of a way and find an opportunity." ”
"What can be done?" Yushi pouted: "Unless the master suddenly becomes pregnant, this is irreparable." ”
But pregnancy really depends on fate.
Both sighed at the same time.
The next day, Meijing got up early, and without waiting for breakfast with Song Liangchen, he pulled Shen Shanshui out.
Yan Wang Ye sat at the dining table alone with a dark face, took a bite and glanced at the vacant seat next to him, but did not ask.
Lin Feng saw that his master's eyes were about to squint, and finally said understandingly: "The princess and Shen Shanshui went out early in the morning, saying that they were going to thank the third young master of the Xu family for taking care of Shen Shanshui in the past. ”
Snorted from his nose, Song Liangchen said lightly: "This king didn't ask her, what are you talking about?" ”
Linfeng raised his eyebrows and immediately saluted: "The slave knows his mistake." ”
It's really not easy to be a subordinate, if you can't guess the master's mood, you will be scolded, and if you guess, you will be scolded, it's really bitter!
"I'll have nothing to do, I'll take a stroll around this house later." Song Liangchen put down his chopsticks and asked, "Which courtyard does the third young master live in?" ”
Yushu silently replied in the dark: "So return to the hospital." ”
"Got it." In response, Lord Yan got up and went to change clothes behind the screen elegantly.
Lin Feng's expression was very complicated, and it was difficult to talk about his grandfather. Aren't you going to walk around this house? Why do you only ask which courtyard the third young master is?
This person, duplicitous, really let others see it clearly, and they couldn't cry or laugh.
Not long after Xu Zili got up, he was looking at the fallen leaves outside and wanted to arrange the next things, when he saw Qingzhou running in with a smile on his face and said, "Master, Princess Yan and Shen Shanshui are here." ”
His eyes lit up slightly, Xu Zili turned around, and saw the two sisters and brothers walking in side by side, with smiles on their faces, looking particularly intimate.
"Shanshui has come to thank the third young master for taking care of him many times."
As soon as he saw Xu Zili, Shen Shanshui went over and knelt down directly, looked at him with his hands and said, "Without your secret help, Shanshui would not have been able to see my sister intact." ”
Xu Zili smiled, looked down at him, and subconsciously reached out to pat him on the shoulder, but found that he was sitting in a wooden wheelchair, which was very inconvenient.
"No need to be polite, this is what Zijin said to me a long time ago." He said: "You two brothers and sisters are his last concern in this world, and where I can help, I will naturally help." ”
Meijing also bowed to him, and when she saw the light boat behind him, she couldn't help but step forward and said, "Come today, I have something to ask the third young master and the light boat." ”
Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, looked down at Xu Zili, who looked at Shen Meijing, and said gently: "It's okay to ask, princess." ”
Looking back at the brocade clothes and jade food, Meijing said: "You go out and guard the door, if someone comes, remember to say goodbye." ”
The brocade clothes and jade food were all stunned, but they still understood the rules, and they should go out.
However, this is the first time that the master has spoken to avoid them, and he is still a little uncomfortable in his heart. The master's past is not only untouchable by the prince, but also by them.
The door closed, and there were only four of them in the room, and Meijing looked at Qingzhou and Xu Zili seriously: "I think Zijin's death is strange, and he also said that he might be harmed, so why did everyone think it was an accident and didn't investigate it carefully, so the case was hurriedly decided?" ”
Xu Zili was stunned for a moment, Qingzhou frowned, looked at the beautiful scenery for a while and said: "You are an outsider now after all, and the third young master has been investigating this matter." ”
The implication is that you don't have to worry about it.
Meijing shook her head: "I have the ability to check now, if I don't find out, I'm afraid I will regret it for life." ”
Shen Shanshui nodded, looked at Xu Zili and said, "Sister is such a character, if the third young master knows anything, it is better to tell her, so as not to toss it herself." ”
Xu Zili was silent, lowered her eyes and didn't look at her for a long time, as if she thought for a long time before she spoke: "The princess should have put Zijin down a long time ago, but now her identity is different, if you still hold on to Zijin's affairs, the gap between you and the prince will be deeper." ”
"It's so deep that it can't go any deeper." Meijing pouted: "Don't worry about the prince's side, you still tell me directly, for such a long time, have you found out who is trying to harm Zijin in this mansion?" ”
Xu Zili frowned, sighed softly, lowered his eyes and said: "There are many wolf ambitions in the mansion, I have lived in a room for a long time, and I really don't know much, and I may not be able to help the princess." ”
"That's right." Slightly disappointed, Meijing looked up at Qingzhou: "Then can you answer me, on the wedding night, why did Zijin walk on the road alone?" Where have you been? ”
Qingzhou opened his eyes and said in a low voice: "That night, the little one helped the fourth young master back to Changyiju, and met the fifth young master on the way and accidentally twisted his foot, the fourth young master was in a good mood, so he pushed the little one to help the fifth young lady, saying that he could go back alone." Who would have thought ......"
Xu Zipei? Doesn't she have a maid by her side? Why do you want to help the boat? Meijing frowned, Qingzhou must not know these questions, she still has to ask Xu Zipei.
"Shanshui will talk to the third young master first, I'll go first."
Xu Zili frowned lightly and looked at her figure, her eyes complicated.
Shen Shanshui nodded obediently, watched his sister leave, and then looked down at Xu Zili and said, "The third young master doesn't seem to be the same as before. ”
