Shen Lansui had been paying attention to her reaction, and the movements she thought were hidden were actually clearly seen by Shen Lansui.

The corners of her lips were slightly hooked, and she seemed to have some ideas.

"Childe."

"Well, has Madame eaten?"

"I'm eating, Miss Cousin is here, Madame and Miss Cousin are eating together."

"Miss Cousin?"

Zhou Mengli, who was named, immediately sat up straight and retracted her gaze.

His face was slightly red.

She had never seen this third cousin before, but when she heard that his voice was so low and gentle, he must be a beautiful man.

With such thoughts, Zhou Mengli's face turned even redder.

Shen Lansui quipped, "Cousin, if you lower yourself, your head should be soaked in the soup bowl." ”

Zhou Mengli was startled, and quickly put down the bowl, "Cousin-in-law......"

Shen Lansui didn't look at her, his gaze crossed her and fell on the person who walked in.

"Saburo is back."

"Hmm."

Hearing this voice at close range, Zhou Mengli immediately turned her head to look, but she didn't dare to look directly at others, and whispered when she got up to salute: "I've seen the third cousin." ”

Lu Xingyue's eyes swept over the table, and seeing that the two of them hadn't eaten much, he said to Xiangxia on the side: "Go and get the next pair of dishes and chopsticks." ”

"Yes." The summer is going quickly.

Shen Lansui helped Zhou Mengli and said to Lu Xingyue: "I haven't talked to my cousin yet." ”

Lu Xingyue looked at Zhou Mengli at this time, but it was only a dragonfly glance, so he withdrew his gaze and saluted back: "Cousin." ”

Shen Lansui wanted to shake his hand, but he dodged sideways.

Shen Lansui was stunned, "What's wrong?" ”

Lu Xingyue said: "The smell of blood on your body is heavy, don't rush you." ”

Zhou Mengli's heart tightened, her eyes fell on him, and sure enough, she saw a dried and coagulated blood stain on the patch of her robe, and her face turned white at that time.

All the throbbing was gone.

Lu Xingyue and Shen Lansui were unaware, and Shen Lansui asked, "How did you get it?" Went to try the prisoners? ”

Lu Xingyue nodded.

"I'll go to the bathroom and wash up first, and you eat first."

Shen Lansui nodded and summoned Guanchun, "You take the son's official robe and let someone wash it, hang it in the warm pavilion, and iron it with good incense." ”

Guanchun went with the land trip.

Shen Lansui realized that Zhou Mengli hadn't spoken for a long time, and when she looked back, she saw that her face was pale and her eyes were wandering.

"What's wrong with you?" Shen Lansui was taken aback by her, "But what's uncomfortable?" ”

Zhou Mengli shivered as if she had just woken up from a dream, and asked in a trembling voice, "What does the third cousin do?" ”

"Didn't the eldest lady tell you?" Shen Lan was sui, "He, he is the envoy of Beizhen, and he is in charge of the edict and prison." ”

Beizhen Fu envoy, the ...... of the edict prison

Zhou Mengli's whole body was cold.

Although she didn't grow up in Yangdu, she always heard some legends, and she naturally knew about the famous Jinyi Guard, saying that the cruelty of the means was terrifying.

Especially in the edict prison, I don't know how many unjust souls are buried in it, and none of them can come out vertically when they go in.

How terrible must be the one in charge of the prison?

was originally moved by the eldest lady's words, and those charming thoughts dissipated in an instant.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, so she stood up and said, "Cousin-in-law, I'm ...... I'm a little uncomfortable, first, go back to rest first, thank you for your hospitality, miss me. ”

"Huh? That's all you eat? Don't you want to eat it? Your cousin just came back, let's have a meal together before we go? ”

Shen Lansui shouted from behind, but Zhou Mengli ran faster.

Xiangxia at the door came in with dishes and chopsticks, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with Miss Cousin?" ”

It's like there's a ghost chasing her from behind.

Shen Lansui chuckled, "Maybe I'm scared." ”

She had seen that Zhou Mengli was timid before, but she didn't expect it to be so young, she was scared when she saw the blood stains on Lu Xingyue's clothes, did the eldest lady still expect her to come and separate their husband and wife?

What do you think?

She shook her head with a smile, and Xia Xia looked at it from the side, and hesitated: "Madam, the slave doesn't know whether to say something or not." ”

Shen Lansui glanced at her, "You are the person next to me, what can't you say?" ”

Hearing this, Xia Xia was a little more down-to-earth, glanced in the direction of the bath room, and said in a low voice: "The eldest lady has always been dissatisfied with the lady, and suddenly her attitude is so good, what is wrong with the slave maid is not right, she also asked the lady to get along with Miss Biao, and the slave suspect that she wants to send Miss Cousin to our Pinglan Courtyard." ”

She said in a disgusted tone: "How long has the lady only passed the door, and she can't wait to stuff people into the son's room?" Madame is a soft-hearted person again, so the slave maid said more, Madame should pay attention to Miss Cousin in the future, don't be taken advantage of by her. ”

Shen Lansui bowed her head, "You're right, I know in my heart, I'll pay more attention, just say whatever you think in the future, I think it makes sense, I will naturally adopt it, don't be too nervous." ”

Natsu nodded and smiled with relief.

Since Mrs. Da got married, she felt that Mrs. had changed a lot, not as silent and melancholy as before, and at the same time she seemed to be less close to them, and sometimes she was afraid that she would not be able to grasp the balance and make her unhappy.

But today, Shen Lansui's words are equivalent to giving her a reassuring pill, and the knot in her heart that she has been doing is finally untied.

Shen Lansui watched her reaction and let out a long breath.

She naturally knows what Xia Xia is thinking, she can't say anything like changing a core in her body, two people who are completely complete can't have the same personality, and she doesn't use other people's personalities to live for a lifetime, so change is inevitable, Guanchun has thick nerves, she may not think so much, as long as she is good.

And Xia Xia is careful and sensitive, easy to think too much, she has never found a suitable opportunity to talk to her, and now with Zhou Mengli's matter, it is good to make her feel at ease.

"What are you talking about?"

Lu Xingyue only wore a middle coat after bathing, and came out with an ink-colored coat outside.

"People are gone?"

He sat down next to Shen Lansui, still with a faint fragrance on his body.

Shen Lansui filled the soup for him and put it in his hand, "I was scared away by our Beizhen Fu Envoy." ”

Lu Xingyue raised his eyebrows, his face was a little innocent, "Me? ”

Shen Lansui raised her eyebrows, "Otherwise?" ”

"It's better to go." Lu Xingyue picked up chopsticks and picked up vegetables for her, "Eat more." ”

Shen Lansui also gave him a clip, and the two of them didn't talk about things when they ate, and they would talk about today's things when they moved to the couch after eating.

"What do you think of Zhou Mengli?" Shen Lansui asked as she leaned against the cushion while holding the hand warmer.

Lu Xingyue was sitting opposite Fang Ji, reading a book with a book, and raised his eyes in confusion when he heard the words, "Zhou Mengli? ”

"It's my cousin."

Shen Lansui asked, "You've never seen her before?" Don't know? ”

Lu Xingyue shook his head: "She is the cousin of the Lu brothers, and she has nothing to do with me. I've never seen her before today, and I've never heard anyone mention it, so where did she come from? ”

Shen Lansui rubbed the plush cover on the stove and said, "The eldest lady said that it was her sister-in-law's only daughter, and her sister-in-law had a sudden illness. ”

Lu Xingyue pondered for a moment, and his eyebrows suddenly sank, "She is a thief." (End of chapter)
