The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 431 No way
Storm Pavilion.

Cui Hengyue stood in the middle of the Qingshi Road, glanced across the Fengbo Pavilion not far away, and looked at the surrounding scenery one by one.

This is a trail, people in the mansion don't often walk it, but this trail reaches Fuhai Courtyard faster than other roads.

Cui Hengyue looked at the bluestone bricks under her feet: "Have you changed the floor tiles here?"

Cui Yongxuan followed her gaze to the ground, and replied: "I haven't changed it."

Hearing this, Cui Hengyue tiptoed and rubbed the ground: "If it doesn't rain, the ground is not slippery."

"What do you mean by that?" Cui Yongxuan was so angry that his voice raised unconsciously.

Realizing that the sound was too loud, he looked around and saw that Wei Jiang and Ming Da were not far away, and his daughter's maid was also far away, so he felt relieved.

But when he spoke next, he deliberately lowered his voice: "Let me tell you, no matter how stupid I am, I will not harm my children.

"I admit that I was not careful, but I can't help it, I have to rush over. I really didn't mean it.

"Your mother lost her beloved son back then, lost her mind, and said some stupid things, I don't care about her.

"But you are different, you are the eldest daughter of my Cui family, every word and deed represents our Cui family, there must be no mistakes.

"You can blame me, you can hate me, but you can't say that I am the murderer of your brother."

When mentioning her mother, Cui Hengyue felt sad, and said with red eyes: "Really? After my brother died, why did you treat me and my mother like nothing, and discarded them like worn-out shoes?
"My mother has just experienced the pain of childbirth and the pain of losing a child, and you welcome the pregnant outer room into the door. How do you face the ancestors of the Cui family by doing this?"

Facing Cui Hengyue's questioning, Cui Yongxuan was so ashamed that he stuck his neck and roared, "From today on, don't mention the past again", turned around and left here.

Cui Hengyue looked at his panicked back, and raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but the hatred in her heart was getting stronger and stronger.

"Yuan Niang—"

Shui Fu came over and looked at Cui Hengyue cautiously: "Are you okay? What did the third master tell you?"

Cui Hengyue looked at her sideways: "Did you find out the attendants who followed my father back then?"

"Found it." Shui Fu reported with a formidable expression, "When the third wife gave birth, the person who followed the third master was named Achang.

"But the second day after the third wife gave birth to you, Achang left the mansion, and it is said that he made a mistake and was kicked out.

"I have sent someone to his hometown, and there should be news soon."

Cui Hengyue didn't speak, and walked towards Jinglan Garden.

That night, Cui Hengyue said to Shui Rong and Shui Fu: "I'm going to visit Sifang, you stay here, if you have any problems, come and find me."

Shui Fu was a little worried: "I'll go with you."

"No need, too many people would be inconvenient." Cui Hengyue went into the inner room to change clothes after finishing speaking.

After a stick of incense, Cui Hengyue climbed over the wall and entered the fourth room, and quietly walked towards Mrs. Cui's room.

Occasionally encountering patrolling guards, Cui Hengyue quickly hid in the darkness, and only continued to move forward after they left.

Based on previous memories, Cui Hengyue quickly arrived outside the window of Mrs. Cui Si's room. She listened carefully, and after making sure that the people inside were fast asleep, she gently opened the window and climbed in.

Although the winter has not yet passed, Mrs. Cui Si has always been in poor health. There is a charcoal fire in the house, so the windows dare not be closed tightly.

Cui Hengyue paused, and slowly walked towards the brazier.

Logically speaking, the people in the fourth room were under house arrest and hated by the queen mother and the old lady. The treatment must be very poor, especially if the people in the house worship the high and trample the low, life will be even harder.

However, there is not only a charcoal brazier in the fourth lady's room, there are more than one, there are four charcoal braziers.

That's not counting, what's more suspicious is that the charcoal in the charcoal brazier is the same as that used in Jinglan Garden.

This treatment is not bad.

Cui Hengyue thought of what Liu Yang said, "The Duke used to love the fourth master very much."

Could it be that grandfather still loves fourth uncle very much and helps him secretly?

Cui Hengyue suppressed this doubt temporarily, and looked at the room under the moonlight.

The furnishings in the room are very simple, but the layout is very elegant. There are many things for children on the west couch, such as exquisite robes, tiger boots, wooden swords, and kites.
Wait, something is wrong.

Back then, the fourth lady gave birth to a daughter. Although the daughter died later, what was left behind should belong to the girl. Why are all the things in this room used by the boy?
At this time, Cui Hengyue heard what Liu Yang said again, "Fourth Madam always felt sorry for Fourth Master, and wanted to give Fourth Master another little man, but after recuperating her body, she was pregnant with a boy.

"Unfortunately, I accidentally slipped a tire."

Perhaps these things were prepared by the fourth wife for their unborn son.

Cui Hengyue tapped her head lightly, smiled self-deprecatingly, and slowly approached the bed.

"Well"

The person on the bed groaned, turned over, and suddenly opened his eyes.

The four eyes met, and panic gradually appeared in the beauty's eyes. She opened her mouth, wanting to call someone.

A hand covers her mouth just in time.

"Hush, don't make a sound, I won't hurt you." Cui Hengyue motioned her to keep quiet, and tried to show kindness.

Seeing her calm down slowly, Cui Hengyue tried to talk to her: "I know you are wronged by being trapped here, do you want to go out?"

Fourth Mrs. Cui stared at Cui Hengyue and nodded slowly.

"In this way, if you answer my question honestly, I'll take you out, okay?" Cui Hengyue was persuasive.

Fourth Madam Cui nodded again.

"Then tell me, how did your daughter die back then?" Cui Hengyue slowly let go of her hand: "Don't call, as long as you tell me, I will take you out."

However, as soon as Cui Hengyue let go of her hand, Mrs. Cui Fourth screamed: "Ah!"

"you"

Cui Hengyue's face was livid with anger, but she jumped out of the window immediately.

"What happened, go and see."

Bai Xinyuan rushed into the yard with his guards, Cui Hengyue immediately jumped onto the roof, and lay down close to the black tiles.

On the roof not far away, there were many black shadows. Looking over here, Cui Hengyue hurriedly pressed her face down against the tiles, trying her best to integrate herself with the tiles.

Fortunately, the moonlight was weak at this time, and the dark guards didn't notice Cui Hengyue, so they jumped into the courtyard and looked around.

In the room, Mrs. Lu and Yuyi were sitting by the bed to appease Fourth Madam Cui. After confirming that there was no one else in the room, Bai Xinyuan came over and asked, "What's wrong with Fourth Madam?"

Mrs. Lu asked just now, but Fourth Madam Cui didn't answer her, she just curled up in her arms.

"I don't know, the fourth lady was frightened, you guys go out quickly."

Bai Xinyuan didn't listen to her, but went to the window and checked, "Fourth Madam, did someone come in through the window?"

"Cat" Mrs. Cui Si suddenly pointed at the window and shouted: "A cat has come in, there is a cat, there is a cat"

At this time, Cui Yonglin rushed over when he heard the movement, and seeing his wife trembling, he immediately became angry: "Get out of here."

Bai Xinyuan glanced around before leaving the room with the guards.

The room was quiet, Cui Yonglin walked to the bed, squatted down, and looked at his wife distressedly: "Han'er, don't be afraid, it's just a stray cat, it won't hurt you.

"In this way, I will sleep on the ground tonight, and I will protect you."

Fourth Mrs. Cui just looked at him and didn't speak.

Seeing this, Cui Yonglin ordered: "Go out, I will guard tonight."

Mrs. Lu and Yuyi looked at Mrs. Cui Si, then at each other, and walked out silently.

Cui Yonglin helped his wife to lie down, and carefully covered her with a quilt, his tone was as gentle as ever: "Han'er, did someone come in just now?"
