Legacy in the Castle (27)

Xia Lingge waved his hand to interrupt his next words, "Butler, there are some things I want to ask you. ”

The old butler looked stunned, and then returned to a deferential appearance: "If Miss Lingge has any orders, just say it." ”

"I want to talk about my brother."

Xia Lingge's eyes fell straight on Shen Yu, and her expression was indifferent, so that she couldn't see the joy, anger and sorrow when she said this.

The old housekeeper hesitated a little: "Miss Lingge...... Want to know what the little master does? ”

Xia Lingge continued to ask: "Father and mother, they love their younger brother very much, right? ”

"Yes."

After hearing this, the old butler's eyes couldn't help but show a loving and gentle gaze: "The prince and the lady of Klouster are family marriages, but they don't have the same interests as other family marriages, and they are guilty. On the contrary, there is a lot of affection, and soon there will be a poetic lady. ”

"It's a bit embarrassing to say, the ancestors of the Kloster family have been in the same vein for generations, and the boy is pitiful, and then he conceived a child at the suggestion of Mrs. Kloster, but he didn't want to be a girl, that is, Miss Vivi."

Xia Lingge listened to the old housekeeper's story in silence, extracting sensitive words that could provide clues inside, such as 'but don't want to'......

In other words, after the Klosters gave birth to their eldest daughter, they wanted a son, but they were still a daughter, so if it is calculated, then the birth of her 'third daughter' may also come from this.

Sure enough, the old butler continued: "After that, it's Miss Lingge, and at this point, Lord Kloster and Mrs. Kloster have been in the doldrums for a long time. Oh, Miss Lingge, please forgive the old slave's clumsy mouth, both the prince and the lady love you and the two sisters with all their hearts, but they are too desperate for a boy, so it is inevitable that they will be a little lost. ”

"It's okay, you continue."

Xia Ling said.

The old butler replied 'yes', his cloudy eyes fell on Shen Yu, and his gray-blue pupils waved a loving smile: "Perhaps it was the love of the Lord and the Lady of Kloster who touched Allah, and my Lord gave a little baby boy to this castle, I still remember the day the little young master was born, the castle was full of joy, and everyone's face was full of happiness and happy smiles." To this day, I am also sincerely grateful to my lord for giving the little master to the castle. ”

Xia Lingge listened to the four words in his mind and unconsciously summed up four words - patriarchy, although the old housekeeper tried his best to cover it up, trying to tell that the Klosters wanted a boy just to make up for their regrets, but the attitude of people cannot tolerate half a lie.

One more point......

"Is there only three of us in my father?" Xia Lingge turned to the old housekeeper, "Should I still have a sister?" ”

The old butler was obviously stunned, the furrow-like wrinkles squeezed deeper, he shook his head and hesitated: "No, no, no, Lord Kloster only has Miss Poetic, Miss Weiwei and you, and there are no other daughters, I don't know where Miss Lingge heard this rumor?" A lie is the blade that cuts off the tongue, and Allah will not let it go. ”

Xia Lingge didn't answer his words, but continued to ask, "Then since the young master was born, did my father, Lord Kloster, behave strangely?" ”

The old housekeeper's brows furrowed even deeper, and his eyes looked at her with suspicion, Xia Lingge was not in a hurry, and still said in a steady voice: "My father died strangely, so I want to know more about his life and see if anyone is secretly poisoning." ”

That little speculation disappeared under her explanation, and the old butler stretched his brows, bowed his head and said for a moment: "I don't remember a little unclear about the time too long, but if you want to say suspicious, since your full moon, the prince has often been away from home, and has not stayed overnight, sometimes only returning once in ten days and half a month, enjoying breakfast with his wife and leaving in a hurry." ”

"And then there's ......"

Xia Lingge looked at him: "What's more?" ”

The housekeeper said: "This situation has lasted for almost a year, and the prince of Klouster once returned home and locked himself in the study for a day and a night, and no one called him to open the door, but since that day the prince no longer goes out early and returns late, but often locks himself in the study and does not come out, and it didn't take long for Mrs. Klouster to be pregnant with the little master, I think at that time, the prince must be praying for blessings." ”

Den......

Xia Lingge suddenly remembered the hidden underground altar in the study, the time when the sacrificial ghost bride and Mrs. Klouster were pregnant with a child, and it was a coincidence that it was difficult not to have a connection, as well as the younger sister...... Could it be the child in the womb of the ghost bride?

Wrong

Mrs. Kloster once said that the fourth sister was not much different in age from her, and even said that she could be the same age, but according to the old butler, it was a year before the old butler put himself in the study, and it would take some time to prepare for the layout.

Who will the four sisters be?

And what is the ghost bride used for?

A lot of questions came to mind. Xia Lingge looked at the old housekeeper's kind and loving look, obviously he didn't know anything anymore, and soon, they came to the ancient castle, and the old housekeeper walked to the gate of the ancient castle with ease, pushed open the door and stretched out his hand to Xia Lingge: "Little young master, Miss Lingge, little duke, please." ”

They walked in slowly.

Si Cheng shook off Shen Yu and came to Xia Lingge's side in two steps: "Senior sister, do you want to ask what you want?" ”

"Pretty much."

Xia Lingge took a deep breath and replied, "But the more I ask, the more curious I am." But now I want to see how the young butler will look at the old man. ”

The castle was quiet, the bright and complicated blankets were neatly spread on the ground, the tables and chairs were clean and tidy, the soft sofa was covered with a layer of bright red satin, the whole castle was so quiet that Xia Lingge blinked his eyes and got up and walked towards the second floor.

She pushed Bai Weiwei's bedroom straight away, the soft skirt like petals was spread out layer by layer, and the weak girl lay on the ground on her side with her eyes closed, her cheeks pale and bloodless. Xia Lingge paused and stretched out his fingertips to put them under her nose, breathing, but very weak.

"Hey, wake up."

Xia Lingge stretched out her hand and pushed her twice, Bai Weiwei opened her eyelids tremblingly, and saw that their pupils were instantly dilated, and her eyes were full of fear: "No, don't kill me!" I listen to you for everything, don't kill me! ”

Xia Lingge pulled down her tossing arm: "What happened?" ”

Bai Weiwei seemed to be relieved, she raised her eyes and looked at Xia Lingge, who pounced on her as if she was sure of something, and cried: "Housekeeper...... That butler is not a good person, he wants to hurt me! ”

"Huh? What did he do to you? ”

Xia Lingge frowned and pulled Bai Weiwei away at the same time, and sure enough, he still didn't like to be too close to the living.
