Chapter 54: Aunt Xue's questioning

The Prime Minister's Mansion in the north of the city is partial

Li Chenghai stood in front of the gold-painted tiger with his hands behind his back, looking at the majestic descending tiger on the picture, and was silent.

The matter of Xinzhou has been almost arranged. The deputy general surnamed Lei intended to take refuge in him, and the three Li Hua brothers had already tried it. This person has a clear mind, and when he heard that he was invited by the prime minister, he agreed in one bite. He also gave them some souvenirs to bring back to Zhaocheng to show their loyalty. In this way, the military power of the Xinzhou Army and the river transportation of the Xihe River are still in their own hands.

He smiled happily, fortunately, he started quickly, Yuan Zhen didn't find anything in the past few days when he went to Xinzhou.

Losing Hui Guogong in exchange for the young Vice General Lei is worth it!

What if the people in Zhaocheng hide those people? When the holy decree of Hui Guogong was disposed of, those Diao people naturally left. Hui Guogong, you have also done a good thing for Benxiang, and Benxiang will make you comfortable on the road.

Thinking of the saint, he turned back to the table and held a note in his arms towards the candle.

It was this afternoon, and the news came from Chief Cui that it was the Holy Lord who severely reprimanded Rong Wei, An Gu and Yuan Gang in the Golden Palace, and ordered the case of the dead body of Dali Division to be thoroughly investigated to the end.

Rong Wei went to Dali to investigate the case was recommended by the prime minister, if this case is confusing, it will cause panic in Zhaocheng. Isn't it the best time to get rid of the Rong Mansion? Even Rong Nanxing was also eliminated!

"Qi Yu Xiangye, 'Erhei' has a letter."

Butler Kang's voice came from outside the door.

"Come in,"

"Yes," Steward Kang lowered his head and gently pushed the door in. Hold up what is in your hand.

Li Chenghai glanced at him, took the letter and asked, "Is the woman in red missing?" ”

"Yes, someone recognized that it was Rong Nanxing, the third lady in the Rong Mansion! Coincidentally, Sister-in-law Wu also sent a message, and that Mrs. Li did it. ”

"Is it really her?" Li Chenghai opened the letter in his hand evilly, "This time, do you have any life left?" Dare to touch the things that are true, I don't know the depths,"

"Yes, Xiangye is right! That girl is indeed arrogant," Steward Kang said with a flattering smile, "Sister-in-law Wu said that she has used it for two days, and she will not survive in three days." The old slave sent someone to stare at it, and Xiangye was relieved. ”

Li Chenghai nodded slightly, "Well, Feng Kuanjian's hilt has been found?" ”

"Not yet, the city guards searched all the blacksmiths in the city but couldn't find it. The old blacksmith's body was sent to the Great Division. Do you want to ask his son? ”

"Not for the time being, presumably he won't know. This Feng Kuanjian actually destroyed his own sword, we didn't even know? Li Chenghai touched his beard with his fingers and said slowly, "You go and send a letter to Lord Sun, if you don't want to die, deal with him as soon as possible."

"Yes, the old slave knows."

"Also, the letter from 'Erhei' said that a girl went to Dali to examine the corpse, saying that it was an animal poison. Send someone to investigate the shop in the city that sells young animals. If you find something wrong, don't alarm them yet. Let's help each other secretly."

"Want to help? Xiang Ye, ? ”

"Yes, the bigger and more difficult this case is, the more opportunities there are, go ahead," the smile on Li Chenghai's face was sinister and cunning.

"Yes," Steward Kang couldn't help but tense and left in a trembling voice.

In Ning Xue's courtyard, Aunt Xue's face turned blue and stirred the Yingluo thread in her hand, and the jewels kneeling beside her and a few mothers-in-law didn't dare to look up at her.

"Tell me, what's going on? A big living person is gone? ”

"Slave and maid, slave and maid don't know, the day the slave and maid went, it was still there," the jewel was agitated, and his voice was very small.

"Don't know? What about you? She was beaten thirty boards, and she could still run out of the yard? It's really capable."

"The old slave doesn't know," the leading mother-in-law glanced at the orb, "When the orb girl went, the old slaves had just come out of her, she,"

"She was tortured by us, and she didn't have the strength to run at all," a woman answered.

"Yes, yes, my aunt is very good to the old slaves, and the old slaves will not look at others," the other mother-in-law also explained.

"Could it be that Aunt Shu took people away? That Qingling was originally a person from Shumengyuan, "Baozhu remembered that when Qingling came, it was Baozhen from Shumengyuan who brought it. "The slave remembers that it was Baozhen who brought it herself."

"Yes, yes, the old slaves really didn't treat her well."

"Shumengyuan? Orb, what you said is true? Aunt Xue put down the Yingluo thread in her hand and got up and asked.

"Yes, it's true, the slave doesn't dare to lie,"

"Get up, come with me to Shumonin,"

"Yes," Baozhu and the mother-in-law glanced at each other and slowly got up.

In Shu Mengyuan, Yan Shu was applying makeup in front of the mirror.

Xiangye said that she would spend the night here tonight, so she naturally had to dress up.

"Baozhen, go and bring me that light dance suit."

"Yes," said the maid beside her, walking towards the wardrobe.

Looking at the delicate appearance in the mirror, she smiled slightly.

Since she was brought into the Prime Minister's Mansion, she has been cautious.

When I was in the building before, I had heard that he was insidious and the most torturous. If you accidentally provoke him, you will not have good fruit to eat. Therefore, when she knew that she was going to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to be an aunt, she was mentally prepared, in case he discovered her true identity, even if she died, she would not fall into his hands.

As for that, Aunt Xue tried not to provoke it. If she troubles her out of jealousy, she won't be relentless.

Just thinking about it, the mother-in-law outside came in to reply.

"Auntie, Aunt Xue is here,"

"What is she doing here?" Yan Shu pursed his lips unhappily and put down the hairpin in his hand, "Please let her in,"

Baozhen also took the dance dress over, put it next to it, looked at the door and whispered.

"Auntie, she never comes to us? Isn't it? ”

"Don't be afraid, we didn't offend her. Besides, I'm not a bully," Yan Shu smiled and went to the door to greet him.

As she walked to the door, Aunt Xue came in with the jewel, and the mother-in-law behind her was waiting at the door.

"Sister Xue, why are you free to come over today? Please sit down," Yan Shu smiled and poured her tea.

"Since you came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, I haven't come to see you. How's it going, can you get used to it? The smile on Aunt Xue's face was very fake.

"It's not bad, Xiangye is good to the slave family. and those who serve are also attentive. But it's much better than the building."

"That's right, after all, this is the Prime Minister's Mansion. You still have to pay attention to your reputation," Aunt Xue smiled and took a sip of tea.

"Sister Xue, are you looking down on me when you say this?" Yan Shu's face changed, and he said unhappily.

"Oh, no, I'm sorry for my sister."

Aunt Xue responded with a smile, "After all, my sister came out of that kind of place, but we must always pay attention to the image when doing things, the people in our Xiangfu are the faces of Xiangye, if you are away from home,"

Before she finished speaking, Yan Shu stood up suddenly with an unkind face, "Sister Xue, Yan Shu has always respected Sister Xue, I don't know what offended you and let you hurt people like this!" ”

"Don't get excited, how can this hurt you? I'm reminding you of the way you do things. Aunt Xue also got up, "By the way, Aunt Shu, that girl named Qingling was sent by you to Baozhen?" ”

"yes, I saw that she was strong and had some strength. Let Baozhen send it to Ning Xue Courtyard," Yan Shu said indifferently, "What, Aunt Xue doesn't want her?" It's okay, you just send her back. ”

"I'm sending her back? Joke、You have brought this person back yourself, and you are still looking for me? When am I? Aunt Xue trembled with anger.

"That's it, that Qingling is gone," Baozhu said reluctantly as she helped Aunt Xue.

"Gone? Sister Xue lost someone by herself and came to me, is there such a reason in the world? Yan pointed to the orb and shouted angrily. Also, what are you? Dare to talk to me like this, treasure treasure slap your mouth! ”

"Yes, auntie!"

Baozhen was just about to step forward, but Aunt Xue took the orb behind her, "So rude!" Dare to hit someone in front of Aunt Ben. Someone came, tied up Aunt Shu and brought her to Xiangye for comment, "

Her shout summoned the mother-in-law at the door in, and she was about to tie Yan Shu up.

Yan Shu shouted, "You are not a lady, what right do you have to dispose of me." I don't do it, I don't do it,"

At this moment, Li Chenghai's footsteps stepped into Shumengyuan, and Steward Kang behind him looked at his figure with uneasy eyes.

"What is this for? Shouting, "

"Xiangye, you're here! If you don't come again, you won't be able to see Yan Shu, "Yan Shu ran over, kneeling on the ground and crying aggrievedly.

Li Chenghai looked at her, then at Aunt Xue, and asked unhappily, "What are you doing here?" ”

"I—I'll come and see Aunt Shu."

"She didn't come to see me, she came to bully me, woo, I'm really unlucky, just a few days after I came, just," Yan Shuli was extremely aggrieved with rain, her body kept shaking, and she looked at Li Chenghai with uneasiness and panic in her eyes.

The slave family was getting ready to welcome Xiangye, but as soon as she entered the house, she said that the slave family had no rules, which insulted Xiangye's reputation. But the slave family has never been out of Shumengyuan, Xiangye knows the temperament of the slave family, and the slave family is inseparable from Xiangye."

"I didn't," Ning Xue looked at her and said only these three words without saying anything.

looked at Li Chenghai's eyes with sadness, sadness, and a little stubbornness.

"Come on, send Aunt Xue back to Ningxue Courtyard. In the future, without the permission of her own appearance, she is not allowed to step into Shumengyuan! Li Chenghai closed his eyes and commanded fiercely.

"Yes, Aunt Xue, please," Steward Kang motioned to Aunt Xue not to speak and leave quickly.

Aunt Xue glanced at Yan Shu very resentfully, and then looked at Li Chenghai, letting the tears flow down her cheeks, her lips trembled slightly but she didn't speak. After bowing slightly, he raised his head and walked out of Shumengyuan.

"Xiangye, what will the slave family do in the future? The slave family wanted to get along with Sister Xue, so they sent the slave maid to her. Who knows, she actually said that I had no rules and ruined the reputation of Xiangye! The slave family just sent a girl, what is the matter with Xiangye, woo, "

Seeing her leave, Yan Shu was still kneeling on the ground and crying, "The slave family just can't figure it out, and he is so kind, he is actually treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, woo,"

"Okay, you can get up too," Li Chenghai helped her up, "Ning Xue is a little stubborn, but her heart is not bad, you have to get along well in the future." If such a situation occurs again, no one will spare it! ”

"Xiangye~~ slave family," Yan Shu was about to speak, but when he saw Li Chenghai's eyes were cold, he didn't dare to speak again, and slowly got up.

Ningxue Courtyard was not very close to Shumeng Courtyard, and the group walked on the way back to Ningxue Courtyard.

Steward Kang looked at Ning Xue and complained, "Auntie, what are you doing to provoke her?" She is a dancer, what is worth asking for yourself? ”

"Uncle Kang, the slave who eavesdropped on the conversation was sent by Baozhen! I had punished her, and I wanted to ask something. But within a few days, the man was gone! That's why I'm just."

"I see." Steward Kang lowered his head and frowned, "That girl was sent by Yan Shu?" Is it trying to frame you? ”

"Yes. That's why I went to Shumengyuan to ask. But Xiangye, "Aunt Xue was very aggrieved," you also saw it, Xiangye didn't even ask what happened, so he sent me back. He also said that I would not be allowed to go to Shumengyuan in the future. Uncle Kang, what should I do? ”

"If you listen to the old slave, just stay in Ningxue Courtyard and don't care about anything. The most important thing is to protect yourself, as for whether the girl is in Shumengyuan, the old slave will investigate. Once you have the results, you will inform your aunt."

Steward Kang persuaded her with kind words. "Xiangye has been busy recently, and the time to go to Ningxue Courtyard is not as good as before. Aunt still, "

"Uncle Kang, I know!" Ning Xue seemed to understand, nodded slightly, and said no more.
