Chapter 57: A Chance Encounter
Yinqi looked at Wanyue's back as she walked away, her face showed a bit of gloom, and she whispered to the minions next to her, "Keep an eye on Chang Fujin, and let Steward Yan replace all the minions in the courtyard of Xinuan Pavilion." ”
"Yes, Lord Belle! The minion will do it. After the servant finished speaking, he respectfully withdrew.
Yinqi turned around and sat down in the chair, he knew that Wanyue had been wronged today, and he had to do something to make up for Wanyue.
After Wanyue returned to Xinuan Pavilion, she lay down on the bed, and what had just happened in her mind came to mind.
If I hadn't made arrangements for Mama Wang in advance, I was afraid that she would have died in the hands of Mama Gui today!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sneer.
An old slave like Mama Gui is the best at disguise, one set in front of people on weekdays, and another set behind her back, if it weren't for Mama Gui saying that she had found the cause that day, Wanyue would probably still be kept in the dark.
She couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, if she was defenseless today and really died in the hands of Mama Gui, then she would have died unjustly!
Thinking of this, Wanyue couldn't help but shudder, she closed her eyes, and tried to forget what happened today.
After a while, the door was pushed open, and Mama Wang walked in with a few slaves and maids.
"Miss, you're frightened today." Mama Wang walked to Wanyue's bed and said.
"I'm fine." Wan Yue raised her eyes and glanced at her with a somewhat indifferent face.
"Miss, the old slave knows that you are a kind child, and you don't want to do today's things, but since they dare to harm Miss, they can't let them get better." Mama Wang approached Wanyue and lowered her voice to comfort her.
Wanyue nodded, and Mama Wang glanced at the maids behind her and introduced them to Wanyue.
"These maids were just sent by Steward Yan, and they were specially ordered by Lord Belle."
Wanyue nodded at her, the servants up and down the Xinuan Pavilion should carefully pick some good ones, and the grandmothers of the Winter Nuan Pavilion should also prepare some powerful ones.
She was thinking about it, and Mama Wang hooked her lips and stood up to stand beside Wanyue's bed.
"Miss, don't worry, these girls are newly selected in our house, if you don't like it in the future, just ask, the slave will send someone to send them away."
After Mama Wang finished speaking, she saw that Wanyue was a little tired, and glanced at the few maids beside her.
"Little master, you can rest first, the slaves and maids will go out first. Tell us what you want. The maids spoke in unison, very well-behaved and polite.
"Hmm." Wan Yue didn't raise her head, she just replied lightly, and she didn't have the heart to look at the newly exchanged maids.
After the maids retreated, Mama Wang sat beside Wanyue, reached out and touched Wanyue's forehead, and said worriedly: "Miss, this time fortunately, you took precautions, if you hadn't asked me to go to Qianzhuang to investigate in advance, I'm afraid you would have been subjected to their ways." ”
Wanyue's pupils shrank a little, yes, today's events are quite thrilling, fortunately, I planned in advance, otherwise.
"When the old slave thinks about it now, he is still a little afraid." Mama Wang let out a long breath.
Wanyue smiled bitterly on her face, "Mama don't worry, Mama Gui, I didn't take it to heart." As for Guarja Yinan"
"Miss." Mama Wang wanted to speak and stopped.
"Mama don't worry, I won't let Guarjia Yinan hurt me again."
Mama Wang saw that Wanyue seemed to have made up her mind, "The slave maid still has to persuade the young lady to think twice, you have seen Mama Gui's methods." Chang Fujin has such a minion, but it can be seen that her own means cannot be underestimated."
Hearing this, Wanyue nodded.
Early the next morning, Wanyue woke up and it was almost noon.
Mama Wang personally brought a bowl of bird's nest porridge over.
"Miss, the bird's nest porridge specially left for you in the dining room. Drink it while it's hot. ”
"Hmm." Wanyue nodded and took a sip of porridge.
"Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Mama Wang looked at Wanyue's darkened eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and thought that Lord Belle was resting in the young lady's room last night, so she didn't ask again.
Wanyue nodded, "Well, I had a nightmare last night, and I dreamed that a big black dog kept chasing me and wanted to bite me. ”
After hearing this, Mama Wang's face became a little ugly, and after a moment of silence, she spoke: "Miss, you don't have to worry, dreams are all the opposite." ”
After lunch, Wanyue took Yudan to the garden to bask in the sun, and suddenly heard footsteps not far away, and a familiar voice followed: "Sister, what a coincidence, you are also here." ”
Wanyue raised her eyes and saw that it was Liu Jia Miaoyin.
Wanyue said lightly: "Sister, good." ”
"Sister, sister heard that my sister was frightened yesterday, and was about to go to Xinuan Pavilion to see you, but I didn't expect to meet you here."
"I'm tired of my sister's memory, my sister is fine, it's just." Wanyue wanted to speak and stopped, thinking that Liu Jiamiaoyin lived in the west side hall, and there was only a wall between her courtyard and her, so why did she have to run to the garden to meet her deliberately.
Liu Jia Miaoyin saw that Wanyue was only halfway talking, she couldn't help frowning, and hurriedly asked, "Just what?" My sister said it was okay. ”
"Just last night, I had a nightmare."
"What did you dream about?"
"I dreamed that a black dog suddenly came out of nowhere and ran after me, trying to bite me, and finally biting me to the point of serious injury."
"What, such a thing?" Liu Jia Miaoyin was shocked when she heard this.
"Don't tell my sister that I was really frightened at the time, probably because I was frightened yesterday."
Liu Jia Miaoyin hurriedly comforted Wanyue, "Sister, don't worry, it's just a nightmare." ”
"What my sister said is that I believe it's just a nightmare."
The two chatted for a long time, and Liu Jia Miaoyin left because she wanted to go back to take care of Hongsheng and Junhua.
As soon as Liu Jia Miaoyin came out of the pavilion in the garden, she saw Bai Jia Suxin.
"Yo, isn't this our Beile Mansion's Shu Fujin, what are you doing here this afternoon?" Liu Jia Miaoyin looked at Bai Jia Suxin with disdain.
"I'm just here for a walk." Bai Jia Suxin said lightly.
"Oh? Is it? Then I won't delay my sister's walk. Liu Jia Miaoyin snorted coldly, twisted her waist and walked away.
Bai Jia Suxin stood in place, looking at Liu Jia Miaoyin's back, eager to kill this slut with a knife.
"Little master, you don't have to pay attention to this side Fujin Liu Jia's clan." Shuang'er on the side saw Su Xin's disgust on her face, and hurriedly opened her mouth to comfort her.
Su Xin's eyes became more and more ruthless when she looked at Liu Jia Miaoyin, if it weren't for her, why would her child have died in childbirth, but it's a pity that the people in the house don't know her true face.
"Sister Su Xin." Su Xin was thinking about it, and a gentle voice sounded beside him.
Bai Jia Suxin came back to her senses and saw that the person who came was Wanyue, and hurriedly showed a gentle look, "Sister, are you also taking a walk here?" ”
"Well, you too?" Wanyue smiled at Su Xin, as soon as the two met, it seemed that the troubles in their hearts were gone.
"yes, it's such a coincidence, I slept late last night, so I woke up a little late." After Bai Jia Suxin finished speaking, she glanced at Wanyue, and continued: "After lunch, I went to this courtyard with Shuang'er, but I didn't expect to meet my sister, I heard Shuang'er say that my sister was really wronged by what happened yesterday." ”
"It's spreading so fast." Wanyue couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, after hearing that Mama Gui was punished by the people of the torture hall, she directly threw her luggage out of Baylor Mansion, and she deserved to frame her sister like this."
Su Xin had an indignant expression on his face, as if he was seeking justice for himself.
"I don't blame Mama Gui, she also has a master above her, she is just being used by others, I can understand Mama Gui." Wanyue said, her tone full of tolerance and kindness.
"Sister is generous, Su Xin admires. However, this matter will not be so simple, there must be some conspiracy behind this, my sister must be careful. Su Xin advised.
"I understand, thank you sister for your concern."
After Wanyue finished speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled, chatted for a while, and then dispersed.
Within a few days, the matter of the personal grandmother of Wubeile Mansion Fujin plotting to kill the side Fujin Tatara clan somehow spread all over the Beijing division and became the talk of many noble ladies in the capital after tea and dinner.
Even the Queen Mother and Concubine Yi, who were in the palace, knew about it, and the Queen Mother specially sent her personal grandmother out of the palace to check.
However, the grandmother went to the house of Chang Fujin to investigate the situation, and did not come to Wanyue's house to inquire.
When the grandmother left, Steward Yan came to Xinuan Pavilion, and Wanyue was forced to go to the palace with Yinqi to explain the matter to the Queen Mother's grandmother and concubine.
In the main hall of Ningshou Palace, Wanyue and Yinqi both knelt in front of the hall, not daring to raise their heads.
The Queen Mother sat on the upper seat and asked in a cold voice, "Fifth Elder Brother, is this true?" ”
Concubine Yi sat on the left side of the Queen Mother, looking at Yinqi and this daughter-in-law with her eyes down, frowning slightly, this matter is about to become the capital of other concubines laughing at her, saying that her son can't even manage the backyard, how can she bear it?
Yinqi knelt down and nodded.
"Grandmother of the Empress Dowager, it was Mama Gui who did it herself, because her grandson knew that she had always looked at the side of Fujin unpleasantly, and in order to stabilize her master's position, she wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of the side Fujin."
Yinqi's voice was not high, and his tone was not heavy, but it was enough for the Queen Mother to hear every word he said.
"It's presumptuous!" The queen mother was angry and took the case, so frightened that Wanyue and Yinqi, who were kneeling below, both shrank for a moment.
The Queen Mother will never allow anyone to treat her grandchildren like this, especially her favorite grandchildren.
Now the rumors about her grandchildren's backyard, her grandmother had to ask for it herself.
"She's an old woman, and she actually wants to get rid of a defenseless royal side Fujin! She's too bold, isn't she? Concubine Yi also said angrily.
Hearing her mother say that she was defenseless, Wanyue couldn't help but burst into tears, or her mother felt sorry for herself.
"Grandmother and concubine of the Queen Mother, don't be angry, I will feel distressed if you are angry." Wanyue whispered, looking well-behaved, arousing the love of the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother said gently: "You get up first, we are not angry when we come to you and Yinqi, but something like this happened, which caused a stir and affected Yinqi's reputation." ”
Wanyue stood up and stepped aside obediently.
The Empress Dowager instructed Concubine Yi again: "This matter will be thoroughly investigated by the mourning family, and you should not meddle, lest you help more and more chaos." ”
After hearing this, Concubine Yi nodded in agreement.
