Chapter 37 No.30 Eight Unlucky Qingqing

The weather is getting warmer tomorrow, but the charcoal basin is still burning in the house. Jiang Lanshu, Qingju, Rongxiu, and Tanchun bowed their heads, guarding the outside cautiously.

There was a refreshing fragrance lingering in the room, and the girl on the couch was asleep, with a strange blush on her delicate face.

In front of the bed, an old man with a gray beard put his wrinkled hand on Ye Lingwu's white and tender wrist. Half a moment later, the old man's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

The entire Jinghe Hall was extremely quiet, and Mrs. Shen was twirling the beads silently with a sullen face, exuding a hostility that was hard to dissipate.

The girls and maids below knew that Mrs. Shen was in a bad mood at the moment, so they didn't dare to speak out, for fear of causing trouble to the upper body.

"Lan Shu, you went to Jiyou Lake with girl Ling, where are you when something happened to her?" The old lady Shen's tone was flat, but she revealed a chilling majesty.

Jiang Lanshu shook her lips, but didn't make a sound for a long time.

Old Mrs. Shen gave her a sideways glance, and said, "Rongxiu, tell me what happened. Why did Jing Yan come back with the unconscious girl Ling?"

Rongxiu didn't dare to shirk responsibility, half kneeled and said: "Go back to the old lady, yesterday the servant girl and the girl went to the royal family for an appointment, and met the young princess of the Shunchang Palace, the eldest girl of the Taifu Lou's family, and some strange girls, One of the girls pushed the girl, and the girl caught the cold by falling into Jiyou Lake."

Old Mrs. Shen Old Mrs. Shen paused for a while while twisting the Buddha beads, raised her eyelids, and said coldly: "You mean that girl pushed Ling Ling into the water on purpose?"

"It was intentional. Afterwards, the girl threw stones at the girl who fell into the water. The servants were restrained and couldn't stop them. Later, the servants saw that the girl hadn't come out of the water after they left, so they went to find someone. Fortunately, they met the second brother on the way. "Rongxiu's answer was clear and smooth, without any concealment.

"Okay, very good," Mrs. Shen put the Buddhist beads in her hand on the table in a gentle manner, her eyes were a little bit dark, "This is my old lady who is easy to bully, even my girl dares to bully me." move."

Mother Xuan said: "Old lady, how do you plan to handle this matter?"

Old Mrs. Shen was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "I see that the weather is very good these few days, why not invite some friends to the house for a bar in a few days."

Xuanmomo said knowingly: "Yes, this old slave will go and tell Princess Jiayi to send invitations to each family."

After sending old lady Shen back to the main room, Jiang Lanshu felt that her feet were light and her heart was pounding.

Seeing that Jiang Lanshu was out of her mind, Qingju looked behind her and made sure no one dared to speak out: "Girl, what's wrong with you?"

"Qingju, I'm so flustered, do you think the old lady will blame me?" Jiang Lanshu's lips turned pale.

Qingju said: "No girl, this matter has no direct connection with us at all, how can the old lady blame the girl."

Jiang Lanshu's face was ugly, she clutched her chest and said nothing.

Night falls.

In the haze, Ye Lingwu returned to the small courtyard in Daiyue Town. The sky was gray and the air was filled with an unpleasant smell of dust. She walked slowly inside, and suddenly a raging fire was burning all around.

The whole person seemed to be in a furnace, the raging fire scorched her body, and her internal organs were about to be scalded, and her consciousness was also scorched, until she was about to suffocate, and she was about to wake up.

The room was dark, Ye Lingwu sat up slowly in a dull consciousness, rubbed her colic temples, and realized that it was no longer a dream.

"Girl, are you awake?"

Ye Lingwu slowly raised her head, watched Rongxiu approaching sickly, without saying a word.

Rongxiu sat on the side of the couch, put the pillow upright on the wooden bed, and said softly: "The girl is finally awake, the old lady is so worried. The doctor said today that you are weak, so don't worry too much, so the old lady Madam sent someone to the Rong family private school to ask for a five-day leave."

Ye Lingwu leaned back dejectedly, and said in a tired tone, "Sister Rongxiu, I want to have a glass of cold wine."

Rongxiu was stunned and said: "Eating cold wine is not good for your health. The girl just caught a cold, so let's drink a cup of hot tea."

Ye Lingwu was silent for a while, her mouth was astringent with the bitter taste of medicine, and she said, "Forget it, let's bring a cup of hot tea."

Rongxiu responded and went to pour tea, and after serving Ye Lingwu lay down again, she left the room.

Ye Lingwu lay on the bed for a while, as soon as she closed her eyes, the feeling of falling into the lake was like a wave, and her heart became more and more restless.

Tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, he simply got up.

It was pitch black outside, but fortunately the moonlight was bright, so she wouldn't go astray just by wandering along the corridor.

The cool breeze of the spring night brushed against her face, and the irritability in her heart dissipated a lot.

At this moment, voices suddenly came from the corridor at the corner. The voices came from far to near, as if they were coming from this side.

——"I went to investigate the Yueyue here, and found that there is something strange about the territory of the Yueyue. The Yueyue is our frontier fortress. If there is a civil strife, I am afraid that foreign enemies will take advantage of it."

Then there was a youthful voice with an indifferent voice: "In recent months, Sheng has been promoted to the position of a few prison officials. Although we can't find any clues, it has also made the fish in the prison ditch a lot anxious."

Ye Lingwu paused.

This voice is... Shen Zhan?
Ye Lingwu took a furtive glance at her body.

Sure enough, in the distance, a middle-aged man with a serious expression walked towards this side with a lantern, and beside him was Shen Zhan, whom he hadn't seen for many days.

Ye Lingwu was about to look away, but her throat was not up to snuff, and she suddenly coughed sharply.

"Who!" The middle-aged man called out in alarm.

Ye Lingwu hurriedly covered her mouth tightly, retracted her body in a panic, her back was covered with cold sweat, she looked around in fear, and saw that there was only a rockery around where she could hide besides flowers and trees.

In desperation, she could only lift the hem of her skirt and turn around to run into the rockery. Before she could run a few steps, a sharp wind blew past her head, and a black shadow suddenly fell in front of her eyes.

"Hmm!" He looked at the wall of meat with such a hard look.

Ye Lingwu covered her nose, raised her head, and saw Shen Zhan's smooth chin angle.

And that cold gaze with murderous intent!

But immediately, that gaze softened.

Shen Zhan didn't expect that the girl who should be sleeping soundly in the house would appear here.A peach-colored jacket and a plain white satin skirt.

The moonlight penetrating through the gaps in the rockery was reflected on her white face. The way she looked at him was like a picture of a beauty, her eyebrows were like clouds and mist, and her eyes were smoky.

Both surprised and fearful.

Shen Zhan forgot what to say for a moment.

When the four eyes met, Ye Lingwu suddenly felt that her legs were as heavy as lead, and her head was blank. She was stunned for a long time before she lowered her head tremblingly, and called softly: "Master Hou."

Ye Lingwu's voice is naturally soft and waxy, probably because of her young age, it really sounds like a kitten's paws scratching people's hearts.

Shen Zhan came back to his senses, his expression returned to his usual indifference, he cleared his throat and said, "Tell me, what did you hear again?"

What a good word "again".

Ye Lingwu felt numb all over, looking into his deep eyes, the thick brown pupils were as beautiful as stars, but it made her feel a chill suddenly.
