into the bosom

Chapter 418

"Princess, don't worry, we have a measure."

Naturally, Xu Jiao was at ease when they did things, but because they cared, they had to say a few more words, "When the colorful clouds come in a while, Banlan's place will be as usual, let Qinniang watch."

"Yes." Negative Xue replied.

Xu Jiao covered her lips and yawned, "Go out first, I'll squint for a while before anyone comes, and wake me up when someone arrives."

"Princess, don't worry about sleeping! The servant girl will call you later." Negative Xue closed the quilt for Xu Jiao, and said softly.

Xu Jiao nodded, closed his eyes, and took a breath.

She was already suffering from the wind and cold, and the medicine she drank contained sleep-promoting ingredients, but she fell into a deep sleep in a short while, and when she was woken up softly by Ling Xue, she felt much more relaxed than before falling asleep.

At this time, the night outside the house was as thick as ink, and the sky was dark.

Caiyun was led and quietly walked into the inner room, Xu Jiao was waiting for her on the couch.

Seeing Xu Jiao, Caiyun's slightly disturbed face was slightly startled, and then her eye circles turned red, she squatted down and bowed deeply, and said with a choked voice, "Princess!" , "Princess, you can be considered to be back. The servant girl is looking forward to the early return of the princess every day, so that the maid can see the princess as soon as possible, so that she can live up to the entrustment of the empress."

Xu Jiao didn't say anything, just looked at her with drooping eyelids, without discerning emotion or anger.

Then Caiyun thought of something, hurriedly untied her skirt, took out a tattered purse sewn inside the skirt, and took out a rolled letter paper from the purse, and handed it to Xu Jiao with both hands Said, "Princess, this is something that my maidservant asked my servant to take care of and handed over to the princess. Please have a look at it."

Xu Jiao glanced at Negative Xue lightly, and the latter stepped forward knowingly, took the letter paper, checked it carefully and found that there was no problem, then passed it to Xu Jiao.

Xu Jiao took it, unfolded it, and by the faint candlelight, she saw Wang Wan's words appearing vividly on the paper, but it must have been written in a hurry, and the handwriting was a little sloppy. The letter read:
Ajiao, Yanfeng suddenly disappeared recently, I feel uneasy and always feel that something is going to happen.After thinking about it in every possible way, I made this decision deliberately, and drove Caiyun away before it was too late, and asked her to keep the letter for her.I don't know how things will change in the future, and I don't know if I will have the opportunity to see you again. When I did this, I was already prepared for this, and I thought I could really face it calmly.Who knows, it's really not easy to be calm at this moment.I want to live, I want to be with Yanfeng and the child in my stomach, live well, but I dream back at midnight, always feel uneasy, I am afraid that living is a luxury.Ajiao, you and I are sisters, you are the person I trust the most in this world, I left this letter just in case, I would rather you never see this letter, if you do , It can only show that things are really going in a bad direction. Maybe I am no longer in this world, maybe I am still alive, but I have no power to influence many things.Ajiao, don't feel sorry for me, seek benevolence and gain benevolence, this is my own choice, and I should bear the consequences.I'm just afraid, I don't know if my parents and family will be affected by me.There are also Yanfeng and the child in my stomach. Speaking of which, they are all innocent people under my obsession. If possible, please try to protect them as much as possible.Ajiao, thousands of words are in my heart, I can't say enough in just a short note, I don't know if there will be a day to see you again, at this moment, I really miss you, I can't help but think of you and me when we first met.Fate has treated me unfairly. I know that I am unlucky and unlucky, but meeting Ajiao is the best gift God has given me.The sky is high and the sea is wide, Ajiao has finally lived what we all want to be.I only hope that Ajiao can fulfill his wish and live a wonderful life. If I am not here, I will sincerely pray that Ajiao will have a smooth life and be happy and worry-free.

Xu Jiao looked at it, her eyelashes wet with tears.After reading the letter, she raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, and looked up at Caiyun who was kneeling in front of her, "Get up first! What happened back then, if you know, tell me word for word."

"Yes." Caiyun quietly breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, pondered for a while, and then said softly, "Not long after the princess left Feng'an, the empress also tried to send Mr. Yanfeng out of the palace, and kept him a secret. It is placed in a village outside Feng'an City. Every three days, someone will send a letter to the palace to inform the empress of Yanfeng Langjun's recent situation. The Wang family does not know where Yanfeng Langjun has gone. Some dissatisfaction, several times in a row, When the Empress went to Cuiwei Palace, she kept asking about the whereabouts of your husband, inside and out, and the words became more serious every time, and it was almost like breaking up on bad terms."

Xu Jiao frowned slightly, she could imagine.Didn't Wang Wan think about such a terrible secret a long time ago?Xu Jiao didn't ask, but she thought that Wang Wan should know in her heart, and she would get rid of Yanfeng directly to be at ease, but who knows, instead of getting rid of him, she hid him, even if she didn't fall into the hands of the Wang family or others , This is also a terrible handle.

The Wang family naturally felt that it was a hidden danger, and even suspected that Wang Wan wanted to use this to manipulate the Wang family. Suspicions and suspicions arose, and it was inevitable that they would separate from each other and break up unhappy.

Wang Wan might not have expected this, but she still did that, and what else could Caiyun call that man "Lang Jun" just now?
Women, after all, are easy to move true feelings.Wang Wan was not a cruel person, how could she treat the man who conceived the child with her, the biological father of her child, as a pawn, or even a stumbling block, and throw it away after use?After all, he was moved by his heart and used his affection, but in that man-eating Miyagi, this was the most terrible thing.

"At that time, Zhuangzi hadn't sent news of Mr. Yanfeng into the palace for several days, and the empress became uneasy. She always felt that something had happened, so the empress set up a bureau, using the servant girl to steal property , drove the servant girl out of Cuiwei Palace. Before that, he entrusted the letter to the servant girl, and told the servant girl that no matter what, he would accept the letter properly, and wait until the princess returned to Beijing to find the maidservant. At that time, I personally delivered this letter to the princess. Let the maidservant ignore other matters, and the maidservant has been following the order of the empress, and finally waited until this day."

As Caiyun spoke, tears were streaming down her face, and in the next instant she fell to her knees on the ground with a "plop", touching her forehead to the ground, and choked up, "I beg the princess to save my mother!"

Xu Jiao's eyes fell on her hands which were much rougher than before. Naturally, life in the laundry room was not so easy. Besides, she was relegated for a crime, so she must have suffered a lot, but she was also a loyal one. No wonder Wang Wan picked her.

"What happened after that? Are you clear?" Xu Jiao asked again after pondering for a moment.

Caiyun hesitated and shook his head, "After the servant girl was driven out of Cuiwei Palace, she was relegated to the washing place. Because of her mother's orders, she dared not ask about many things. The stillbirth, for some reason, offended His Majesty, was reprimanded, and fell out of favor, Caixia and others were directly executed with a stick, and Empress was even imprisoned in Cuiwei Palace and was not allowed to go out."

Xu Jiao frowned when she heard that, except for the first thing about the letter, she knew everything that Caiyun said later, and she even knew more than what Caiyun said.

In other words, Wang Wan asked her to come to Caiyun just to let her see this letter, and there was nothing else in the letter except that she almost confessed her funeral. In other words, Wang Wan actually wanted her to help her. Yes, but it's just to take care of her parents and family, and that man who doesn't know whether he is dead or alive.

Xu Jiao's emotions were surging for a while, neither Wang Wan's parents, family members, nor that man could compare to Wang Wan in her heart. Now that Wang Wan is still alive, the funeral affairs explained in this letter are all bullshit.

"I have already received what your mother asked you to give me. I will send you back first. You have to be patient. After a while, I will find a way to let you out of the palace." Xu Jiao said to Caiyun .

"But..." Caiyun still wanted to say something, but she didn't want to bump into Xu Jiao's eyes that were coldly glanced over, but those clear and lingling eyes were covered with a thin layer of ice, making her unable to say a word. , had no choice but to nod numbly, and was sent out.

"Wentao!" Seeing that the person left, Xu Jiao murmured, "Find a few people to go to the place where A Wan hid earlier, and see if they can find any clues." , It’s just that it’s been such a long time, I don’t know if there are any clues left.

But whether that man is dead or alive, she thinks Wang Wan will want a clear answer.Moreover, did that man disappear because of someone else, or did he leave... Xu Jiao's eyes were covered with ice and snow. There is not so much love and righteousness in this world.

"The servant girl will do it now." Wen Tao immediately turned around to make arrangements.

"Wait, be careful, don't let people notice." Although Wang Wan is almost useless now, neither Emperor Xian nor the Wang family should pay too much attention to her, let alone, under the current situation , I'm afraid I can't take care of her, but I still have to be careful.

"My servant understands." Wen Tao nodded, solemnly agreed, and turned to leave.

It was also getting late, Xu Jiao tightened his clothes, ready to go to bed.

But at this moment, there was a faint commotion outside, Xu Jiao frowned, and Neg Xue had already turned and walked out without ordering.When he came in again after a while, his complexion was not very good, and he leaned into Xu Jiao's ear and whispered, "Princess, something happened."

After a cup of tea, Xu Jiao casually put on a robe, sat on the big kang by the window, looked at Qinniang and Banlan who were kneeling in front of them, with calm expressions.

Qin Niang glanced at her face, turned her head to stare at Banlan, gritted her teeth secretly and said, "It's all the servant girl's fault, I did it according to the princess's order, but who knows that something went wrong, please ask The Princess will punish you!" As she spoke, Qin Niang leaned down and touched her forehead to the ground.

Tonight, according to the order of the princess, she rewarded Banlan with a bowl of ginseng chicken soup with ingredients in the name of the princess according to what she did in the past. Mother Qin was supposed to be safe, but how could she know that this little bitch is so cunning... just now Seeing that Ban Lan slipped out without saying anything, she was still hiding in the shadow under the wall of the main courtyard, peeping at the main room, Qin Niang almost died of fright, and felt a chill all over her body at that moment.When he came back to his senses, Ban Lan was captured and brought directly to Xu Jiao.

She made a careless mistake, but no matter what, she couldn't let this little bitch slip away.

Xu Jiao raised her eyes faintly, "Ms. Qin, get up first!"

Qinniang felt that she had made a mistake, and she didn't dare to make a mistake, so she understood Xu Jiao's intentions and stepped forward to help her up. Generally hold your breath and stand aside with your hands tied.

"You're smart." Xu Jiao looked at Ban Lan, and smiled suddenly.

"The princess is ridiculous. If the maidservant can be called smart, she wouldn't have discovered now that the princess has been suspicious of the maidservant for a long time, but she is so calm, not only hiding it thoroughly, but also using it thoroughly." Half Lan was kneeling, but her back was straight and her face was a little pale, but most of the cowardice on her face before was restrained.

Xu Jiao's eyes also turned cold, "You should be glad that you are still worth being used."

Banlan's eyes flickered twice, she gritted her teeth, and finally said, "I'm afraid the princess has misunderstood, Madam is really not a maid..."

"It's true that you didn't do it, but you chose to turn a blind eye. In order to clear the relationship, you even knocked yourself unconscious, almost killing half your life. If you say you are afraid of death, you have such a cruel hand on yourself .” Xu Jiao sneered.

Banlan's face turned pale again, "I didn't expect the princess to notice it so early..." At this point, Banlan's expression was in a daze, and she smiled wryly, "I really didn't want to die at that time, nothing else I made a choice and fought for my own way of life, but now I know that life is worse than death, and I am always worried and doing things against my will. reputation as a faithful servant."

Xu Jiao snorted, "It's my fault too, I shouldn't have thought that kindness towards you in the first place." Ban Lan used to be anxious, but Mrs. Zhao had a cold face and a kind heart, thinking that she was by her side The old man was almost grown up by her, so Mrs. Zhao was a little bit reluctant after all, but Xu Jiao thought that she hadn't made such a terrible mistake, and Mrs. Zhao wanted to spare her once, then let her go!Unexpectedly, this is the result, so the ancients said that it makes sense to be unfaithful once and not to be unfaithful a hundred times.Even if Xu Jiao knew that even if Banlan resisted at that time, it would be useless. After all, Mrs. Yan was just the knife that killed people. The real murderer wanted Mrs. Zhao to die, and she died in Mrs. Yan's hands. Because of Ban Lan, there was a slight change, but as long as he thought that Ban Lan was right in front of him at the beginning, and he would not save him, Xu Jiao couldn't help it no matter what.

At the beginning, she was in a trance and didn't notice anything unusual, but He Lianshu had doubts about Banlan's wound. Later, she had someone keep an eye on her secretly, and she really discovered the clue.

That day, she escaped by self-mutilation, but she also passed the handle to the person behind the scenes. After waking up, she inevitably became the eyes and ears of that person in the Zhongyonghou Mansion.

When Xu Jiao knew about it, she almost wanted to rush to kill Banlan, but He Lianshu stopped her.

Their house was cleaned very cleanly, and it was difficult for other people's eyes and ears to get in, which really made suspicious people very worried.
