During the break in the afternoon, the secret guard brought the latest news to Xiao Yanlin: "The second master has gone to find the second prince." ”

This sentence was like pressing the switch of time freeze, and when there was a stick of incense, Xiao Yanlin was silent and didn't say anything.

The dark guard wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know where to speak, so he could only retreat silently.

When Gu Baiyu woke up, she saw Xiao Yan standing by her side, and when she got up, she silently hugged her.

He remained silent.

Gu Baiyu sensed that something was wrong, so she could only hug Xiao Yanlin harder.

After a while, Xiao Yanlin spoke, and his voice was hoarse after not speaking for a long time.

His tone was still calm, but Gu Baiyu heard a little loneliness from it.

"Yu'er, if Ruoyun grows up, I'll let him leave the Hou Mansion and go to build the mansion by himself."

Gu Baiyu is such a smart person?

Hearing this, where is there anything you don't understand?

She only hesitated for a second, and then said: "I am not injured this time, and the child is fine, if the second master is insisting, Gu Ruan Ruan's side ......"

Xiao Yanlin shook his head: "I know that you just let Gu Ruan Ruan go again and again for me, but Ruoyun should learn to grow up." ”

Gu Baiyu sighed.

It seems that in this life, no matter how hard she tries, the fate of Xiao Ruoyun and Gu Baiyu seems to be controlled by a pair of invisible big hands, firmly tied together.

"Master Hou has made a decision, then I will support it."

Xiao Yanlin finally revealed some information to Gu Baiyu: "Ruoyun went to find the second prince." ”

Gu Baiyu paused.

In a simple sentence, they all understood what it meant.

The second prince and Xiao Yanlin are now endless, and Xiao Ruoyun went to seek the help of the second prince, which is equivalent to choosing to stand on the opposite side of the elder brother in the confrontation between the two.

And all of this is because of Gu Ruan Ruan.

Between his brother and Gu Ruanruan, Xiao Ruoyun had already made a choice.

"The second prince is probably coming to save people."

Xiao Yanlin shook his head: "It's not that easy. Yu'er, I watched the flowers in the backyard bloom well, and in the afternoon, you took Lingyu to the backyard to drink tea and look at the flowers, right? ”

Gu Baiyu shook his head: "I don't, Master Hou is going to deal with Gu Ruan Ruan in the front yard in advance?" ”

Xiao Yanlin is helpless, sometimes the lady is too smart and annoying.

"She's going to hate me, I don't want her to hate you more, and you can't see blood now, I'm afraid you're uncomfortable."

Gu Baiyu held his hand: "I won't." This is a grudge between me and her, and I am not afraid that she will hate me, because it is her guilt. ”

"The child in the womb will not be afraid, because this is his father who is angry for his mother."

"If he were a boy, he should have learned how to protect his family in his mother's womb;"

"If she's a girl, she should learn how to protect herself in the back house."

"I don't want my children to be pampered and grow up too kind and naïve, they should learn to distinguish between right and wrong and protect themselves and their families."

Gu Baiyu's words were gentle, but very firm, so that Xiao Yanlin had no reason to refuse.

"Okay, then come with me."

Underground torture chamber.

Ever since Gu Ruan Ruan was forced to die, Xiao Ruoyun finally agreed to Gu Ruan Ruan to find the second prince, Gu Ruan Ruan was a little uneasy.

Her heart was beating wildly for no apparent reason, and she could only console herself that it was because she was about to regain her freedom.

However, less than an hour after Xiao Ruoyun left, the door of the torture room was opened.

Seeing that the person who came was Xiao Yanlin's secret guard, Gu Ruan Ruan chuckled in his heart.

"Where's the second master?"

The dark guard sneered: "Are you still waiting for the second master to bring rescue soldiers to save you?" Dream! You almost hurt the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, do you really think you can get away with it? ”

Gu Ruan Ruan was really panicked: "What do you mean by this?!" Didn't you say it was tonight? What are you doing now? ”

The secret guard mercilessly took the man out of the torture chamber -

"You are a concubine of the Hou Mansion, when do the Hou Ye and Mrs. want to dispose of you, do you still need to pick a day?! Hou Ye is in a bad mood today, so he has to deal with it in advance. ”

Gu Ruan Ruan was going crazy when she heard this, and struggled desperately!

"No, he can't do this, I am a good concubine given by the emperor, he can't dispose of it privately!"

"Also, why doesn't he talk nonsense?! Say yes tonight! It's tonight!! ”

But no one paid attention to Gu Ruanruan's struggle.

She hadn't eaten anything in the past few days, and she didn't have any strength at all, so the secret guard took the person out of the torture room without much effort and escorted her all the way to the front yard.

And the entire front yard, all the subordinates in the house have been called over.

They stood on the sidelines one by one, and when Gu Ruan Ruan came, Xiao Yan gave a look, and the secret guard moved to block Gu Ruan Ruan's mouth.

Gu Ruan Ruan could only whine, but he couldn't utter any meaningful syllables.

And Xiao Yanlin finally said his first words after coming here.

"First, the good news. Madame is already pregnant with the eldest son of the Hou Mansion in her belly, presumably someone has guessed that today I will announce this good news, from today onwards, everything in the Hou Mansion will be the most important thing for Madame. ”

The courtyard suddenly resounded with the congratulatory voices of the people.

waited until all the voices fell, Xiao Yanlin said the second sentence of the day.

"This is a happy event, but there are people in the house who are not long-sighted and try to kill the child in the arms of the lady, and this person will be punished today."

These words, originally not by Xiao Yanlin's identity, it is best for the old housekeeper to do it for him.

But Xiao Yanlin chose to speak by himself.

He just wanted to give everyone present a shock, let them know who is in charge of this Hou Mansion, and who they want to protect in this Hou Mansion!

After Xiao Yan finished speaking, the rag in Gu Ruanruan's mouth was taken out, and a sharp roar immediately came out of her mouth.

"Xiao Yanlin! Gu Baiyu! How dare you! How dare you! You wait, wait for the second master to call the second prince, I want you to look good! ”

This is more like a bluff, and no one will listen to it at all.

Two guards supported her on the left and the right, tying her to the torture bench.

Her hands and feet were tied, her back was facing the sky, and her whole person was like an animal on a chopping board, allowing her to be a mermaid.

The Hou Mansion has a family member who specializes in executing the most vicious subordinates.

The two men were stout and carried wooden sticks taller than a human being, which were the instruments used to carry out the cane.

Gu Ruan Ruan didn't really know that he was scared until he was tied to the torture bench, and he was in tears for a while.

looked straight at Gu Baiyu: "Sister! Sister I know it's wrong, I really know it's wrong! I'm a ghost this time, I'm forced by the second prince! ”

"Sister, please, please spare me this time, as long as you spare me this time, I swear that I will never appear in front of you again, sister! Have you forgotten the friendship we grew up with? ”

Gu Baiyu shook his head and looked at her with pity.

"I have never forgotten the friendship between us, but you forgot it first......"
