The Golden Bough and the Dog verse 10

Yanxia was indeed dishonest, the old eunuch slapped the maid, and she pretended to be a ghost and returned two back.

But this is to make them angry, not to cause trouble.

Tang Xian shook her head with a smile in her eyes.

"That's still too short a time together. The girl didn't know anything, Yanxia was bold, sometimes likable, sometimes absurd, and often made people want to beat her. ”

Tang Xian thought for a while and replied as thoroughly as possible: "It's very bold." ”

It was nearly mid-March when Yanxia was picked up, and a few days after Yanxia woke up, Tang Xian was going to sleep in the tomb.

Knowing that she was afraid, Yanxia actually pretended to be a maid and infiltrated the tomb, and then relied on her agile skills to blend in with the clay figurines dummy, evaded the inspection of the old eunuch, and was locked in the tomb with Tang Xian all night.

- Although she lost too much blood due to pulling the wound, she fell asleep most of the night, and she still needed Tang Xian to take care of her.

But there was someone to accompany her, and Tang Xian didn't feel that the tomb was terrible for the first time.

In the smoke in the imperial mausoleum, even if it is seriously injured and will bleed and scream if it moves, it is also very reliable.

Tang Xian once again remembered her promise: "I swear to you that within three months, all innocent people in the Imperial Tomb will be able to regain their freedom." ”

Three months, carefully calculated, it has been a little half a month.

Tang Xian fiddled with the flower branches in her hands, remembering all kinds of the imperial tomb in her heart, and her eyes gradually became more jumping.

If there is no progress on her side, can she pin her hopes on Yanxia?

"It seems that the girl and Yanxia really get along well."

Zhuang Lian saw her changed demeanor at the mention of Yanxia and came to a conclusion.

Tang Xian hesitated, nodded generously, and said, "She is informal, frank and righteous, I naturally like her." ”

"Frank and righteous?" Zhuang Lian was skeptical.

Tang Xian remembered Cen Wangxian's incident, choked in her throat, and wanted to take this sentence back.

After a pause, she changed the subject and said, "When I picked up Yanxia, she was dying and almost couldn't be saved. It's not right to steal things, but it's not a crime to death, who did this to her? ”

When Tang Xian asked, Yu Guang glanced at the opposite side of the flower cover, where Yun Zhu was staring and contemplating.

She also has a bit of a grudge, since both sides have plans for her, they don't have to be so humble.

Can't you hit him, can't you stab him?

"Huh." Zhuang Lian smiled dryly, also glanced at Yun Zhu, and said in a low voice, "It's an accident, it's all a misunderstanding." Girl, stop talking. ”

The clouds stopped moving, Zhuang Lian's tone was vain, and the appearance of the two of them was like a weak heart after being condemned by morality, which fueled Tang Xian's momentum.

So she said clearly: "I think so, if my mother's favorite maid makes a mistake on the spur of the moment, I may punish them, or drive them away, but I will never take people's lives easily." What is the difference between shouting and shouting and killing at every turn and a brutal beast? ”

Zhuang Lian: "......"

With a "pop" sound, Yun stopped putting down the tea cup in his hand.

Chapter 9: Bang Dang

Hearing the crisp sound of collision, Tang Xian's heart was shocked, and she suddenly remembered the previous meetings with Yun Zhu, and felt remorseful.

What to provoke such a person?

She stared at the peach branch in her hand, and she didn't dare to move her eyes again.

Zhuang Lian also froze for a moment, then quickly came back to his senses, holding a round-bellied brown bottle with peach blossoms on the corner of the table in front of Yun Zhu, and asked casually, "What does Childe think?" ”

In the low bottle is a slightly thick branch, on which three or five thin branches are divided, among which the most buds are to be released, and there are only three delicate flowers in full bloom, dotted with fresh green buds, which looks elegant and refined, and vibrant.

Yun stopped and said: "It's too bland." ”

Zhuang Lian played a round game: "It's a little, otherwise add another branch with a more colorful color?" ”

"That's not necessary." Yun Zhu raised his hand, and his slender fingers flicked the flower on the branch, tearing off a pink petal.

"Add some human blood to the water and raise it for a few more days, and the flowers should be red." He said softly, ending with a twist, "Fresh." ”

Tang Xian didn't dare to raise her head, but she felt it, and the last sentence of Yun Zhu was obviously coming in her direction.

What is this? Before the business was negotiated, did they start attacking and threatening each other openly and covertly?

This man is too shameless.

But Tang Xian didn't dare to reason with him, so she could only pretend to be deaf and ignore anything she heard.

"Hahaha, that's what Childe said." Zhuang Lian gave Tang Xian a reassuring look, but Tang Xian, who was in fear, did not receive it.

He stopped along the cloud again and said, "It just so happens that Cen Wangxian still has half a breath, and the flowers raised by the blood of the scholar are the most gorgeous." ”

Tang Xian: ...... And it was not appeased.

Yun stopped turning to Zhuang Lian with an unkind look, and at the same time pushed away the brown bottle in his hand with his fingers, obviously not satisfied.

Zhuang Lian, who was not flattering at both ends, laughed dryly, and felt that in order to have a good relationship with Tang Xian, it was better to let these two people stay away.

He had followed Yun Zhu for many years, and in the blink of an eye, Yun Zhu knew what he was thinking.

Yun stopped looking at Tang Xian unpleasantly, but he had promised to hand over the person to Zhuang Lian in the next two months, and he would not interfere in the interrogation.

He pointed at the quail-like Tang Xian before Zhuang Lian opened his mouth and said, "Find her something to do." Also, to remember to stay away, fake, very unappetizing. ”

Previously, Tang Xian was only insinuating Huai, but at this moment, Yun Zhu was exposing their hypocritical friendliness in front of the two parties, and he was arrogantly disgusted.

Zhuang Lian is accustomed to his bad temper, and he can still keep his face unchanged, "Yes." ”

Turning to Tang Xian, Zhuang Lian said: "Girl, it's getting late, I'll send you back first, and I'll arrange things for you tomorrow." ”

Tang Xian didn't want to stop at all, she didn't stay voluntarily, why did she have to serve people?

But with Fang Cai, she didn't dare to choke on the wall in the clouds, so she put down the flower branches with a "hmm" and walked out of the study with Zhuang Lian.

The red sun outside hung in the treetops, and the glow spread obliquely, dyeing the eaves in the distance and the tall magnolia in the near distance into a brilliant orange-red, making Tang Xian remember the magnificent sunset he had seen on the monument of the imperial tomb.

The imperial tomb is depressing, but the beauty has never disappointed anyone.

Tang Xian remembered Yanxia because of the brilliant clouds, and I don't know if she pretended to be able to do it well, and whether she intimidated the old eunuch again.

Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered the wife of the head of the house mentioned by Zhuang Lian, and her mind moved, and said: "Since the wife of the head of the house treats Yanxia well, then she must be a good person with a bodhisattva's heart, how can she ......?"

She turned her head and looked towards the study.

How did you raise such an ambitious and disgusting son?

Zhuang Lian pretended not to read her unfinished words, said "hehe" twice, and asked her to go down to the attic sideways.

Tang Xian leaned on the railing and walked down a few steps, feeling that the voice could not be transmitted to the study, and said as if unintentionally: "By the way, you also know that I am from a famous family, and I can't do rough work, even if I can't sweep the fallen leaves." It is not difficult for me to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and hop tea, but if the wife of the family lacks a ...... to relieve boredom."

It's hard to mess with the clouds, but the wife of the house is charitable, if you can get to the wife of the house, it may be much easier to get out.

It's a pity that Tang Xian's words were not finished, and the idea was seen through.

A message came from the open study behind him: "Come back." ”

Zhuang Lian and Tang Xian stopped together.

Tang Xian frowned and looked at Zhuang Lian suspiciously.

Zhuang Lian gave her a look of self-help and walked back to the attic.

After a while, Zhuang Lian came back and said, "My son-in-law said that since the girl can only do some elegant things, she will stay in the study from tomorrow to serve, and there is no problem with grinding and sorting out the books, right?" ”

Tang Xian didn't want to be alone with Yun Zhi at all, and when she heard this, she felt remorseful in her heart, and said hurriedly: "How can this be done...... If he or he has important documents in his study, aren't you afraid of being seen by me? ”

"Childe said that the girl's eyes are bright, and she will definitely be able to control it." Zhuang Lian said pityingly, "If you can't control it, it doesn't matter, the girl even knows that the son intends to rebel, and she is not afraid to know anything else." ”

Tang Xian: "......"

The more you know, the more dangerous it is, the slimmer your chances of leaving.

Damn it!

.

Late at night, Tang Xian tossed and turned to reflect on her behavior today.

First, when she learned that Zhuang Lian was not in the mansion, she should immediately dispel the idea of talking about a deal, and find a random excuse to deal with Yun Zhu.

The amount of energy in the cloud stop is as large as the eye of a needle, and it is impossible to provoke.

Second, when Zhuang Lian mentioned the wife of the housemaster and Yanxia, she should be the main guest in time, and turn the topic to the wife of the housemaster at that time, so that she can get some information.

It's a pity that she only thought that her mouth should be strict, and she reacted slowly, and she didn't react until she left the attic, so far away, but she was still listened to by the clouds, and ended up in a situation where she served in front of him.

Tang Xian regretted that she couldn't sleep all night.

She learned from the pain, and reminded herself in her heart that the next time she secretly stopped sarcastically, or wanted to inquire about the news, she must be far away from him, and she must not be listened to by the person with a small belly.

After finishing and sighing, it was too difficult to inquire about the news in this house.

The guards were indifferent and indifferent, the only owner was a bastard, Zhuang Lian's attitude was kind, but his vigilance was quite high, and he warned her once on the way back: "The last one who tried to inquire about my family's wife did not even leave a bone." ”

Tang Xian couldn't sleep steadily, listened carefully, and only the distant insect chirp unique to the middle of the night was in her ears, and other than that, everything was silent.

She was dark, unlit, and she couldn't see the light to the left or right.

Tang Xian groped her way to the door of the room in the dark with her memory, and once again confirmed that the doors and windows were locked tightly, and her heart was steady.

Unfortunately, I hit my knee on the edge of the bed when I got back to the couch.

Tang Xian rubbed her knees in pain, in a daze, thinking that it would be good if she could contact a girl, the girl's family was soft-hearted, even if she couldn't inquire about anything, it could also make her feel more at ease.

The night was spent in such melancholy.

The next day, it rained lightly, and the guards prepared an umbrella for Tang Xian, and she reluctantly went to the attic study.

The study was empty, Tang Xian entered, passed the floor flower cover, and saw that the innermost table was placed with the elegant flowers and half-polished pen and ink that had been inserted yesterday, as well as a half-folded letter, which was spread out loudly.

It seems that someone read the letter in front of the desk and forgot to put it away.

The rain was dripping, and outside the half-open window, the rain and dew rolled down from the pure white magnolia petals, mixed with the rain splashing on the windowsill, and a few drops burst onto the table, leaving a little water mark.

Tang Xian hesitated to step forward to check.

The guard was outside the door, and she was the only one in the house, and when she was discovered, it could be argued that she wanted to close the window.
