Chapter Ninety-Six: Saving People from Fire and Water
The room was still the same, and even the things in the corners were spotless.
Xin Nian passed by slowly, looking at the familiar arrangement: since the death of Princess Qin, one was busy, and the other was afraid of touching the scene, so she had never been here again. Looking at it now, I suddenly feel that things are wrong in my heart.
There was a sobbing sound in the dormitory, it should be a lychee. Xin Nian walked in, and sure enough, he saw Lychee lying at the end of the bed, and in the muffled whimper, I don't know how much sadness and pain there were.
Xin Nian looked at the big bed steadily, she remembered Princess Qin's last words, and now all kinds of signs have confirmed the other party's guess: Princess Qin was killed, it was the hand of Concubine Liao, and the people she instructed should be Aunt Fang and Ling'er in the small kitchen.
Reasoning, this revenge can't be avenged, but if I don't avenge my sister, how can I be willing? What's more, since the concubine can be ruthless to her sister, how do you know that she won't do it to me? The accident between Liuzai and Yaya, could it be the work of the concubine? It's either her or the Liao family, and she can't get rid of these aunts and nephews. In this way, I have to avenge this revenge for being reasonable, public and private.
Xin Nian looked at the bed and was distracted, her mind turned a thousand times, and after a while, she exhaled lightly and said lightly, "Lychee, don't cry."
"Auntie?"
Lychee heard the voice and looked up in surprise. Xin Nian saw that her eyes were swollen like peaches, and smiled bitterly, "What's wrong? But when you think of your sister, you're sad?"
"Auntie."
Lychee wiped her tears: "I...... I just can't bear to be here, and the princess and I have been in this courtyard for more than ten years...... I also know that sooner or later there will be this day, that is...... I just felt that it was too fast, I knew that today, I should have followed the princess in the first place, I shouldn't be greedy for life and afraid of death......
"Sooner or later, there will be a day? You're saying Grandma is going to sell you about it?" Xin Nian raised his eyebrows and interrupted Lychee's words.
"It's someone else who sells. Grandma said, "I am the princess's maid in marriage, and I have always been loyal, so she will send me to guard the princess's mausoleum."
"Guarding the Tomb?"
Xin Nian was stunned, and then said angrily, "What kind of bastard is this? When did Shouling actually arrange a weak woman? In the wilderness, why didn't she just feed you to the wolf? It's still going to take that."
"It's okay if you just feed the wolves, but I'm afraid I'm afraid of ...... Grandma won't spare me so easily." In the wilderness, the most terrible thing is not wolves, but people, especially men.
Lychee's body trembled, and she suddenly smiled miserably, and muttered, "What kind of loyalty am I? I can't even bury the princess, this is my retribution for being greedy for life and afraid of death, I only hope to go to see the princess under the nine springs innocently, and I will be content."
"Eternal hardship, only death. If so, who is not greedy for life and afraid of death? My sister is the kindest and gentlest person, how could she agree to you bury her with her? That is not faithfulness, it is a sin against her."
Xin Nian stepped forward and hugged the lychee in his arms: "Okay, okay, don't be afraid, I have already asked the prince for you, you will all pack up now, and then come to my courtyard together." By now, the people who should have been in the camp have probably gone out of the camp a long time ago, and the rest are all reliable people around my sister, how can I leave you here and ignore them?"
Lychee was crying miserably, and when she heard this, she was stunned, and then raised her head sharply and looked at Xin Nian in disbelief: "Auntie? This...... It's true? Can...... But grandma won't agree, how can she let us go?"
"How can she not want to let you go, dare to talk to the prince with such a vicious mind?" Xin Nian took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears for Lychee: "This is Prince Duan's Mansion, and the prince is the real speaker."
Lychee's breathing suddenly became rapid, and she swallowed a mouthful of saliva before she whispered, "But auntie...... You...... You've offended your grandma, and she's going to hate you to death......
"I have offended her before, and she has hated me to death."
Xin Nian disagreed, and patted Lychee on the shoulder: "Okay, let's go clean up, and by the way, tell everyone the news, I think you will go to my courtyard today." Don't wait until tomorrow, when all the teeth are here, let's slap grandma's face again, it will be a little bad, let the concubine and the prince look at it, and feel uncomfortable, isn't it?"
What's uncomfortable with that? Rajah
It's hard to say, but concubine, she's just afraid that she can't eat Aunt Xin, right?
Lychee burst into tears and smiled, the haze on her head finally dissipated, and the sunlight penetrated, making everything around her bright again, and even breathing easier.
Soon, the news that Xin Nian took a dozen old people around the princess back to Qingliangyuan spread, and the Liao family was lazily listening to the report of several daughters-in-law, and when they heard this, it is said that their faces changed on the spot, and they broke a cup, and then Guizhi came to Qingliangyuan to see Xin Nian.
"Our grandmother said, these dozen people have already agreed with people, and they will be sold tomorrow, if my aunt is short of people to call, there are people in our house, but my aunt picks them, and if they are not satisfied, they will buy them from outside, in short, these people are not allowed to use them."
Xin Nian slowly plucked the teacup, looked at Gui Zhi with a smile, and didn't speak until Gui Zhi was stared at, shrunk her neck, swallowed saliva and asked her, "What do you want me to do, auntie?" Our grandmother is waiting for a reply."
She took a sip of tea and said lightly, "It's nothing, it's just that your appearance is a little unpleasant." What are you? Dare to stand tall in front of me. Now I am cautious, and I look much better. Go back and tell your grandmother, I want to keep these people, the prince has already agreed, over there, just find an excuse to send it away, don't say that they didn't sign the contract, they just signed, do they dare to argue with the palace?"
"Although they don't dare to call out, but we are such a big palace, and we have broken our trust, won't we be laughed at when we spread it? Say our grandma bullies people......
Gui Zhi didn't wait to finish speaking, then he saw Xin Nian put the teacup down, and heard her say loudly, "If this is considered bullying, then it is bullying, what can it be? I grew up playing with your grandmother, I don't know what kind of temperament she has? Are there still fewer people she bullies? At this time, I put a few people's teeth in my eyes. If you go back immediately, just say my words, grandma is really so weak that she can't even suppress a few people's teeth, don't be in charge, I will be in charge of this family, and I will suppress those people's teeth, how about it?"
"You ......"
Gui Zhi was so angry that his face turned red: "Auntie is so angry, you should also think about your identity before you speak, and spread it, people still think that we have no rules in Duanwangfu."
Xin Nian looked at Gui Zhi with a smile, and said leisurely: "Your grandmother and I are sisters from childhood to adulthood, and there are many times when we talk out of proportion, so what rules do sisters make a joke with each other? But you, a girl, can't take your turn to be presumptuous in front of me, and you want to subdue me, and it's almost as good as calling your grandmother."
"You ......"
