Chapter 52 Gradually cooling

Aunt Liu walked out of the Cui Wei Courtyard in a hurry, walking, and her overheated brain gradually cooled down, and suddenly felt that what Shen Yue said seemed to have some truth.

She couldn't help but look suspiciously at the personal maid beside her, Pearl.

She suddenly remembered that today she just passed by the lotus pond and inadvertently sighed that the flowers in the pond had bloomed, and the pearl mentioned the lotus feast, and also hyped up the scenery of the eldest lady at the lotus banquet every year, which made her think.

Could it be that Pearl really betrayed her?

Pearl was unexpectedly looked at by her, and couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, and said with a smile: "Why does my aunt look at the slave like this?" ”

"Pearl, how many years have you been with me?" Aunt Liu suddenly asked.

Pearl became more and more apprehensive in her heart, and said cautiously: "It's been more than five years. Back then, thanks to the aunt who bought the slave from the hands of the human tooth, there is a slave today, and this kindness will never be forgotten by the slave and the maid in this life. ”

Aunt Liu stared at the pearl for a long time, and felt that the gratitude in her eyes did not seem to be fake, so she slowly let down her guard.

couldn't help but ask her for advice: "You say, should we hold this lotus feast?" Why did I suddenly feel a little uncertain in my heart? ”

"Auntie, did you believe the eldest lady?" Pearl glanced at Aunt Liu's face and sneered: "You were really bluffed by the eldest lady, what does she know about a young lady who doesn't go out of the door and doesn't go out of the second door." ”

Aunt Liu felt that she was right, but she still said: "Didn't my housekeeping power be taken away by the eldest lady from the eldest lady?" ”

Pearl pouted and said, "That's because Xiangye values you, what does it have to do with the eldest lady." ”

She raised her hand and held Aunt Liu's arm affectionately, sighed and said, "You are too sincere, doesn't the eldest lady just see this and want to pinch you?" ”

"How?" Aunt Liu raised her eyebrows and looked at her.

"Look at it, when the eldest lady was housekeeping, what kind of life did the eldest lady live? How many good things did you give her after you housekew? Pearl peeked at Aunt Liu, and found that she had already moved, so she hurriedly continued to bewitch: "Slave maid, the eldest lady is afraid that you will be in the limelight and favored by the master after successfully holding this lotus banquet, so I will ignore her in the future." ”

"She's just trying to suppress you." She had the final word.

Aunt Liu has always been vain, and she was complimented by the pearl for a few words, and soon became fluttering, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that what the pearl said made sense, and completely threw Shen Yue's exhortation out of the clouds.

But she didn't know that the loyal maid she thought turned her head and took the time to run to the courtyard of the eldest lady.

After listening to Pearl's report, the eldest lady plucked a golden hairpin from her head and threw it to her, and = sent her away.

As soon as the others left, Shen Weiwei couldn't wait to speak: "Mother, I don't understand why you are holding up that Aunt Liu like this. ”

"You think it's a lift?" The eldest lady reached out and nodded her forehead, and said with a smile: "You, you are still too tender." ”

"I still have a mother." Shen Weiwei hugged the eldest lady's arm and said coquettishly.

The eldest lady looked at her dotingly, shook her head and said, "This time, you think for yourself." Mother can't be by your side forever, and you will have to face it all by yourself sooner or later. ”

Shen Weiwei pouted dissatisfiedly, and was about to plead again, when a masked woman suddenly appeared in the house.

She couldn't help but be taken aback, and couldn't help glaring at the other party fiercely, and scolded angrily: "Aunt Hong, how many times have I told you, don't always be so elusive, you want to scare Miss Ben to death." ”

"Yes, my subordinates know their mistakes." The masked woman saluted Shen Weiwei respectfully, but her tone was flat without the slightest fluctuation.

Shen Weiwei only felt that Honggu didn't take her seriously at all, and suddenly became even more annoyed, and couldn't help but raise her foot and kick at Honggu.

Honggu received a kick motionlessly, and the doctor said to Shen Weiwei lightly: "Just get angry, Honggu is also your elder, don't go too far." ”

He said to Honggu again: "Can the things entrusted to you be done?" ”

The dead soldiers of the Yongning Marquis Mansion have always left only the most elite, and there are only a fixed hundred people in each generation, as the most favored daughter, when she got married, her father directly gave her one-third of the dead soldiers, and Honggu was the leader of these thirty dead soldiers.

Over the years, the matter handed over to Honggu has never been missed.

The eldest lady was sure that this time was the same, and she was just a casual question of routine.

I didn't want to, but I heard Honggu say: "The subordinates have failed, please ask the master to surrender." ”

"What did you say?" The eldest lady couldn't help but knock over the teacup in her hand.

Almost at the same time, Shen Yue grabbed the arm of Emperor Xiuhan, who had infiltrated the Prime Minister's Mansion again, but she was surprised.

"Your Highness really rescued my mother?"

Di Xiuhan looked at Shen Yue's excited expression, but his eyes were a little complicated, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only nod.

Shen Yue, however, was immersed in her own emotions and did not notice the abnormality of Emperor Xiuhan.

It was just a guess before, but now that it is finally confirmed that her mother is really alive, she can't wait for half an hour.

couldn't wait to urge Emperor Xiuhan and said, "Then what are you waiting for, take me to see my mother." ”

"It's so late today, do you want to wait until tomorrow to go?" Di Xiuhan asked tentatively.

When Shen Yue heard this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, and said angrily: "Then why doesn't Your Highness come back tomorrow to inform me?" ”

With this news, how could she possibly sleep tonight?

"Okay." Di Xiuhan nodded helplessly.

The two of them once again carried light skills, evading the patrolling guards and quietly leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, but this time they didn't go far and arrived at their destination.

"Has Your Highness arranged my mother in your palace?" Shen Yue looked at the palace plaque in front of her, squinted her eyes slightly, and her fanatical heart gradually cooled down.

The experience of her previous life had made her accustomed to thinking twice when she encountered things, and she had already experienced Emperor Xiuhan's scheming as deep as the abyssal sea, which made her have to think more.

When she returned from rebirth, she saw everything clearly, and she was already alone.

Now that she finds that her mother is still alive, she finally has a little more concern, but she also has one more weakness.

"What are you thinking?" Di Xiuhan grabbed her chin suddenly, forced her to look up at herself, and frowned, "Is this king such a filthy person in your heart?" ”

Shen Yue didn't struggle, but instead curled the corners of her lips and showed a good-looking smile to Emperor Xiuhan, "Why did Your Highness say this?" Your Highness and I are not related, you helped me, I repay you, rightly, isn't it? ”

She is not a person who does not repay debts, even the most difficult human debts.

Di Xiu stared at Shen Yue coldly for a long time, but in the end, he was frustrated to find that he had nothing to do with this woman.

He could only snort coldly, shook his hand and took the lead into the palace.

Shen Yue rubbed her chin, lowered her eyes slightly to hide the look in her eyes, and silently followed behind him.

The two were silent all the way, until they came to a secluded courtyard, and Di Xiuhan spoke again: "Mrs. Su is inside, you can go in." ”

He frowned, glanced at Shen Yue deeply, and still didn't say anything more.

No amount of talk will change anything.

"Thank you."

Shen Yue was anxious in her heart, once again ignoring Emperor Xiuhan's strange appearance, and sincerely thanked her and rushed into the courtyard.

The small courtyard is not large, only one main room and two side rooms, but it is very delicately cleaned.

At this time, only the main room was still shining, and a slender figure was printed on the window.

Shen Yue's eyes couldn't help but be hot, and she muttered "Mother" and rushed directly into the room, forgetting that she was knocking on the door.

The people in the room were startled by her, screamed and ran to the corner and shrank up.

Shen Yue's footsteps couldn't help but pause, and she looked at the scene in front of her in amazement, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a while.

It took her a long time to react, hurriedly walked to the woman's side, squatted down and said softly: "Mother, I'm Yue'er, I've grown up, don't you recognize me?" ”

She raised her hand and put it on Su Yao's shoulder, and the touch under her hand made her heart shrink again.

It's too thin, and it's almost the same to say it's skinny.

In her vague memory, her mother's figure is indeed very slender, but it is definitely within the normal range, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the flesh and blood are evenly stopped.

What kind of torture has she endured over the years to become what she is now?

Shen Xiang, the eldest lady......

Shen Yue couldn't help gritting her teeth fiercely, and her heart was full of anger.

At this moment, Su Yao trembled violently, slowly raised her head, looked at her in confusion, and muttered, "Yue'er? ”

"Yes, I'm your Yue'er, does my mother recognize me?" Shen Yue said happily.

Su Yao's eyes suddenly became wild, and she pushed Shen Yue away, and said sharply: "No, you are not my Yue'er." What about my Yue'er, where have you hidden my Yue'er? ”

She began to rummage frantically through the house, and the porcelain in the room was suddenly crackled and shattered.

Su Yao stumbled on her feet, and she was about to fall into a piece of broken porcelain, so Shen Yue came back to her senses and hurriedly stepped forward and dragged her back.

Without waiting for her to speak, Su Yao knelt down with a puff and pleaded with her: "Big lady, I beg you, please return Yue'er to me, okay?" ”

Her knees were on a piece of broken porcelain, and in an instant the blood on her face spread out, but she seemed to be completely immersed in her own world as if she didn't realize it.

Shen Yue looked at her in a daze, completely stunned for a while.

She had imagined countless scenes of mother-daughter encounters, but she never imagined that it would be like this.

They were standing face to face in front of each other now, but her mother didn't recognize her at all.

Di Xiuhan didn't worry about following up, so when he saw such a scene, he sighed unexpectedly, stepped forward, stunned Su Yao with a knife, and glanced at Shen Yue and said, "Don't be stunned, move Mrs. Su to the bed first." ”

Only then did Shen Yue come back to her senses, and hurriedly took Su Yao from his hand, carefully picked up the person, and placed her on the bed.

Di Xiuhan went out for a trip, and soon a person who looked like a doctor walked in.

Shen Yue stood by the bed and watched nervously, her face pale as if she was the one who was seriously ill.

Di Xiuhan stepped forward, gently took her into his arms and patted her comfortably.

"How so?" Shen Yue leaned on Di Xiuhan's chest, her eyes were full of confusion, as if she was asking Di Xiuhan, and she seemed to be talking to herself.
