The deafening sound of slamming the door made Fu Shen tug at the corners of his mouth.

And Lan Fu, who was beside him, stood at the door with a nervous expression, for fear that the man would notice her.

thought that Huan Ci had stopped thinking of escaping, so she relaxed her vigilance. Who would have thought that after such a short period of work, the woman poked the basket out again.

Looking at Fu Shen's figure that did not stop, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But Fu Shen's next move made her nervous again.

Fu Shen originally wanted to leave, but suddenly caught a glimpse of Lianru standing in the corner. The person who tricked him into coming here that day was Lianru, but when he was happy, he forgot about this person.

"Come here." He glanced at Lianru.

Lianru was pushed by someone, and stepped forward tremblingly, lowering her head and not daring to speak.

"Let me ask you, how does she scold me on weekdays?"

The words he uttered made everyone a little stunned.

Lianru thought she had heard something, and looked up at him in surprise.

"If you go back to the master, the girl always mentions the third master's goodness on weekdays, and she has not scolded the third master." She said with a clear conscience.

If the third master hears those words, let alone her little life, even the woman's little life may have to be finished.

Fu Shen looked at her coldly, and suddenly sneered: "Really? What did she say about me? ”

The girl said that the third master was a good person and rescued her from the fire pit. She also said that she would repay the third master well, and hoped that the third master would come to see her often. ”

The corners of Lan Fu's mouth twitched, and he admired this woman's ability to lie. Huan Ci said things like "where did that brute go", "let me eat this dog thing", "he finally got out" and so on.

Fu Shen hooked his lips and smiled, turning his head to look at Lan Fu: "Really?" ”

Lan Fu picked his fingers nervously, and handed sweeping leaves a look for help.

She'd never lied, but she couldn't seem to shake her head in this situation.

"Of course not." The window behind her was suddenly pushed open from the inside.

The woman in the room glanced at Fu Shen with disgust and said, "Why don't you get out yet?"

Fu Shen turned around and looked straight at her, his lips lightly opened up and down, and asked, "Sweeping leaves, according to the rules of the house, if someone deceives you, what should you do?"

"If it is a first offense, it will be punished with twenty rods, but if it is a second offense, it will be thrown out of the house." Sweeping the leaves back.

Fu Shen looked suddenly enlightened, and turned his head to look at Lianru: "This person has deceived me again and again, do you have to wait for me to deal with it personally?"

Lianru has been worried since she deceived Fu Shen that day, but when she saw that it had happened, she thought that Fu Shen would not bother with her anymore. Now she doesn't need him to point it out, she knows which two times he said.

She hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy one after another.

The atmosphere in the courtyard instantly became tense, and Fu Shen's cold face made Huan Ci a little scared.

"You have to play your prestige and play elsewhere, don't get in my way here." She whispered.

Fu Shen raised his eyes to look at her, "In what capacity are you talking to me now?"

Huan Ci's face changed "aw".

What could she be? Her father died tragically, her home was raided, and she was just a prisoner and could only be slaughtered.

Before she could speak, Fu Shen began to instruct Sweeping Leaves: "Punish Lianru as a staff for twenty, and execute it here." ”

Huan Ci didn't sympathize with Lianru, this woman tried her best to use her, deceived Fu Shen for her own future, and she deserved it.

But when she stood in the courtyard and watched the scene of everyone's execution, she couldn't help but feel weak.

The flesh and blood of a good person who was beaten were blurred, and he couldn't cry in the end.

It's not just this that makes Huan Ci tremble, but people who were once kicked out by her at will now have such rights.

Just halfway through the fight, Lian Ru fainted. Fu Shen frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Take her back and pick another good one." ”

Two men hurriedly picked her up and dragged her outside.

The courtyard gradually became cold, and Huan Ci couldn't help but shudder when he looked at the woman's pale face.

The man appeared quietly behind her like a ghost, and whispered in her ear: "Stay obediently, I will come to you again tomorrow." ”

With that, he walked straight away, leaving Huan Ci alone standing in the wind.

Without Lianru's noise, the small courtyard was completely quiet. Huan Ci was so depressed by tonight's play that he didn't say a word all night.

She sat distraught and drank under the lamp, watching Lan Fu slowly walk over with a basin of water.

Although Lan Fu was four years younger than her, she never underestimated her. Maybe it's because she can't speak, Huan Ci always thinks she's a calm and self-contained person.

"Lan Fu, when you have something to worry about, but you can't say it, will you feel uncomfortable and panicked?" The woman's eyes were drunk, and she squinted at Lan Fu.

Lan Fu pursed his lips and shook his head slightly. If there was anything she could have bothered her, it was this man who had discovered her secret wine and drank it up.

She was about to step forward to dodge the wine jug in Huan Ci's hand, when the woman suddenly stood up, stumbled to the door, looked at the full moon in the sky and said, "I don't have a home anymore." ”

The woman silently shed two lines of tears, and Lan Fu hurriedly stepped forward to drape her with a dress, and snatched the wine jug in her hand.

Huan Ci looked at her in surprise and cried, "I want to drink." ”

Lan Fu rolled his eyes, walked to the table and wrote on the paper: "This wine is very strong, you are already drunk." ”

Huan Ci saw her leave suddenly, staggered to her side, and his eyes lit up instantly after seeing the words on the table: "Can you write?" How can you write? ”

Lan Fu frowned, a little disgusted with her yelling.

But Huan Ci didn't notice it, and was still shaking Lan Fu's shoulders excitedly.

Most of the literate people around her are the daughters of large families, and she has never seen a literate maid. She once forced Ah Yao to recognize words, but Ah Yao gave up after two days of learning, but Ah Lian learned a lot from her.

Lan Fu got out from under her palm, picked up the pen and began to write.

Huan Ci moved his gaze to the table and watched her write the word "avoidance" on the paper.

These two big words made her sober up a lot, and she gratefully shook Lan Fu's hand: "Thanks to you, I almost forgot." ”

But she soon began to be depressed again: "I can't get out, where can I get medicine?" ”

Lan Fu shook his head and wrote on the paper, "Pay attention in the future." ”

Huan Ci opened his mouth and didn't say anything for a long time. blame her for being careless and forgetting such an important thing.

"You know that?" The ghost made a mistake, and she suddenly asked.

Lan Fu nodded and wrote on the paper: "I grew up in the Qinglou. ”

Looking at Huan Ci's surprised eyes, she wrote again: "My mother is a Qinglou woman. ”

Huan Ci bowed his head and said, "I see." Then you are also a rare person, and you can even recognize words. Let's talk about it for a while, and you can just write it down on paper. ”

Lan Fu pursed his lips and wrote, "I'm tired, rest." ”

"Then we'll talk tomorrow." Huan Ci smiled. Now that it's almost the third watch, she is already sleepy.

Early the next morning, Huan Ci rushed to the next room and pulled Lan Fu out of the bed. Last night, Fu Shen said that she was coming today, and she was very unhappy, so she really wanted to talk to Lan Fu. Ke Lanfu didn't bother to pay attention to her, and kept busy before and after.

The left and right Huan Ci were idle, so they kept following behind Lan Fu. Lan Fu cooked, she helped wash the vegetables, Lan Fu sprinkled water, she helped sweep the floor, but the more she helped, the more messy it became.

Just as Lan Fu came over to snatch the broom in her hand, the door was suddenly knocked a few times.

The two looked at each other at the same time, both of them very surprised.

Lan Fu took the lead and stepped forward to open the door, looking at the strange man outside the door with a serious expression.

"Allian?"

Huan Ci saw Ah Lian and hurriedly rushed over. As soon as she pulled up Ah Lian's sleeve, a familiar figure appeared at the gate of the courtyard next to her.

"Say something soon." Fu Shen glanced at Ah Lian coldly.

"Come on in." Huan Ci ignored him, dragged Ah Lian in, and closed the courtyard door by the way.

After the footsteps in the yard gradually moved away, he opened his mouth and said to Sweeping Leaves: "Watch tightly, don't let anyone know." ”

Sweeping the leaves hurriedly answered yes. Although the eldest prince doesn't care about the affairs of the third master and the county lord, if he knows that the third master is in contact with these people, it is hard to guarantee that he will not think about it.

At this time, under Lan Fu's gaze, Huan Ci quickly dragged Ah Lian into the house.

"Why are you here?" She asked excitedly.

Ah Lian smiled bitterly and said, "I also fainted not long after you fell that day. By the time I woke up, he was no longer in Puzhou, and his wounds had been bandaged. I hurried to Bingzhou to look for your uncle, only to learn that he had already left after hearing the news. Later, when I heard that the palace had been raided, I secretly went back and happened to meet Fu Shen, and then I arrived here. ”

"What are you doing with him?" Huan Ci frowned.

"Don't you know?" Ah Lian looked up at her, "Zong Zhengyuan suddenly fell seriously ill, and now the person who controls the government is Zong Zhengche. But there are rumors outside that the emperor once issued a decree to spread the law of Zongzheng, but Zongzheng Che secretly hid the holy decree. There are also rumors that someone threatened the Empress Dowager and demanded that Zong Zhengtou hand over the holy decree. ”

Huan Ci involuntarily frowned. So much had happened in the days she had been trapped here, and she didn't know anything about it.

"Do you know who kidnapped the Queen Mother?" She asked.

He looked at her for a moment, then looked back at the closed door.

Huan Ci walked to the window and took a sneak peek, Lan Fu was busy in and out of the kitchen, and there was no one else in the yard.

"Is it Li Qi?" She asked, looking back.

Ah Lian shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either." Judging from all the rumors, it should be him. On the day the prince was killed, he was the one who sent me the news. ”

"What did he do when he kidnapped the Queen Mother?" Huan Qi was puzzled.

If he wants to use the Queen Mother to threaten Zong Zhengche, what does he want to achieve? Zong Zhengtou must have pretended to cooperate with Zong Zhengyuan to kill his father, and then found a way to counter Zong Zhengyuan. But he didn't expect Zong Zhengyuan to leave the holy decree, so he couldn't get that position safely and smoothly.

"Ah Ci."

The UAE's abrupt call pulled her back to her thoughts.

"Without the prince, you and I can't fight him at all."
