first princess

Chapter 20 The Thrilling Banquet (2)
This will not implicate the Guo family.Guo Rong smiled sweetly: "It's really inappropriate for me, an outsider, to intervene in the family affairs of the Shui family. I'll wait for you in the garden. Let's shoot arrows together when you're done!"

"Okay." Shui Linglong nodded with a smile, and Guo Rong happily followed the little girl and turned to leave.

Shui Linglong and his group walked for another quarter of an hour before they arrived at the scene of the incident. Shui Lingyu was pressed in the snow by Shui Lingyue, her face was flushed with finger marks, Shui Lingyue didn't stop, she scratched her ear One after another, they greeted Shui Lingyu: "Little bitch! You are fat! How dare you help Shui Linglong deal with me? See how I deal with you!"

Shui Lingyu whimpered, sobbing choked up, her hair was scattered all over the floor, her hair was disheveled and half covered her face, she was in a terrible state of distress.

"Stop!" Shui Linglong yelled sharply, Shui Lingyue froze, followed the prestige, and saw that the person was Shui Linglong, she rolled her eyes and ran away!

Shui Linglong didn't chase after her, and ordered Ye Mao and Cui'er to help Shui Lingyu up: "Can you still go? I'll send you back home, and I'll ask a doctor to take a look."

Shui Lingyu lowered her eyes, whether she was cold or afraid, she was shaking all over: "There is no need to mobilize the crowd, the elder sister can help me to rest in the other courtyard in front, but I am just such a poor life, she bullied me twice and disappeared It's fine."

There is a small road with rockery and pine forest on the left, and another courtyard on the right. The front shop is deserted for a mile, but the chrysanthemum garden in the back has many twists and turns. The location is indeed quite secluded.

Shui Linglong blinked, and told Ye Mao and Cui'er to help Shui Lingyu up.

Shui Lingyu sniffed, and said: "My clothes are dirty, can I borrow a set from my elder sister? This is a banquet after all, and I can only afford this set."

I'm afraid that the spare clothes won't be on the table, or...

Shui Linglong raised her eyebrows, and said very generously: "Zhi Fan, go to the car and get Miss San's gilded white butterfly dress and purple jasmine skirt with embroidered skirt."

Shui Lingyu's long eyelashes trembled. The old lady ordered the best embroidery house in the capital to make this outfit. She had seen it in the Fushouyuan, and the elder sister hadn't worn it once...

Shui Linglong looked at her, smiled, and asked, "What's wrong with Third Sister? Are you uncomfortable? Do you still have something on your mind? You have been a little absent-minded since you entered the Guo Mansion."

Shui Lingyu pushed Tweety, Tweety bowed and walked aside, Shui Lingyu took Shui Linglong's hand, choked up and said, "I'm so scared, big sister..."

Tears fell on the back of Shui Linglong's hands, like morning dew, crystal clear.When the cold wind blows, the rouge fragrance that smells good on Shui Lingyu's body is shaken, Shui Linglong raised her eyebrows, and the smile on the corner of her lips seemed to be gone: "Since third sister is afraid, don't go to rest in some yard, I will take you back Let’s go to the mansion, this is not my home after all, if something happens, there is nowhere to cry, what do you think?”

Shui Linglong's face turned pale, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back. She swallowed, and said, "I'm really dizzy, eldest sister will accompany me to rest for a while, and I'll go back home when I can leave."

"Since the third sister insists on this, I don't have much to say." Shui Linglong smiled and helped Shui Lingyu into a room in the courtyard with Ye Mao.

The courtyard is so secluded that no one lives there, the courtyard is full of dead branches, but the wing rooms are elegant and unique, with a strong yet faint fragrance.

Shui Lingyu took off her cotton-padded jacket, lay down on the bed, and said with teary eyes, "Sister, stay with me for a while, okay? I have something to tell you."

"What does Second Sister want to say?"

"I... elder sister, actually I... I... I like Mr. Qin!"

She had already seen this.Shui Linglong paused, and said: "I see you have almost rested, let's go back home!"

"Elder Sister, listen to me." Shui Lingyu's teardrops fell down, sobbing uncontrollably.

Time passed bit by bit, and the cold wind made the window lattices whine, like the whimpering of unjust ghosts, which made people's hair stand on end.

Shui Linglong sat quietly, neither in a hurry nor in a hurry.

After a long time, Shui Lingyu propped herself up, but she seemed exhausted. Her arm slipped and she knocked over the teacup on the bedside table. The teacup fell to the ground and shattered. , although Mr. Qin and I are in love with each other, since ancient times, marriage contracts have always been the orders of our parents and the words of the matchmaker. Neither of us can decide, so in order to be able to marry her, I..."

"You are willing to do anything, even if your conscience is ignorant, isn't it?" Shui Linglong said coldly, she tore off the sachet from Shui Lingyu's waist, and took out an identical sachet from under the bed , "Small skills! Do you think it would be great if you can make rouge and perfume?"

Shui Lingyu suddenly changed color: "Ah - big sister!"

"You really disappoint me! I gave you a chance, but I don't cherish it, so you will be at your own risk!"

"Big sister! You... When did you..." This is cartilage fragrance, and most people will lose their limbs after smelling it for a quarter of an hour, but they have already stayed in the room for more than two quarters of an hour, which can only show that Shui Linglong was already on guard!

Of course Shui Linglong had been prepared for a long time, Zhuge Yu asked Anping to send a bunch of camphor flowers on the surface, but in fact he had already sprinkled anti-virus powder in it, the scent of camphor flowers was strong enough to cover the smell of the powder.From the moment Shui Lingyue and Shui Lingyu tore their faces apart, she asked Zhuge Yu to keep an eye on Shui Lingyu's personal maid, including what raw materials she bought.

"Want to know when I started to doubt you?" Shui Linglong glared angrily, pointed at her nose and said, "Shui Lingyu, with your selfish nature, would you be willing to offend Shui Lingyue for me? Last time in the temple, you voluntarily drank tea mixed with crotons! You are bullying! Shui Lingyue told you to frame me, and you framed me!"

Shui Lingyu's face became very ugly when she was said to be the center of the matter.

Shui Linglong put down her hand pointing at her nose, looked down at her, and said: "You shouldn't have poisoned me because of Qin Fangyi's coercion and temptation. If Shui Lingyue was like this, I wouldn't hate her so much, because I and She doesn't tolerate fire and water, but what can I, Shui Linglong, do to you, Shui Lingyu?"

Shui Linglong clapped her hands, Ye Mao kicked the door in, Shui Lingyu turned pale, and finally realized the crisis was coming: "Eldest sister! You go around me! I was just confused for a while, I will never fight against you again !"

Shui Linglong's ears are callused when she hears such begging words, why don't she think about giving the other party some sympathy when she is framing someone?Or, what happened after the incident was revealed?
Shui Linglong made a gesture, Ye Mao stepped forward, and under Shui Lingyu's horrified gaze, he slapped her unconscious!
"Time is running out, hurry up!" Shui Linglong didn't think that Shui Lingyu and Shui Lingyue tricked her here just to let her sleep, the action of throwing the cup just now should be a signal.

She took Ye Mao's hand and walked towards the gate of the front yard. Unexpectedly, she saw Shui Lingyue walking over with a "servant" from the Shuifu before she stepped through the hanging flower gate.

Shui Linglong's expression changed slightly, and she hurriedly dragged Ye Mao around the corridor and walked towards the back door.Unfortunately, as soon as she stepped out of the back door, she collided with a man, almost instantaneously, the man pulled out his long sword and pointed it at her chest.

Shui Linglong didn't expect that she would meet the aloof Zhenbei King!It was a bolt from the blue!

Intuition, experience, and the sword around her neck told her that guests would not wander into such a secluded courtyard unless there was some conspiracy, and they were so vigilant!So, she, Shui Linglong, broke the Zhenbei King's matter!

She suddenly remembered the action of Shui Lingyu throwing the cup, don't tell her, King Zhenbei and his group also used this as a signal.

Shui Linglong looked at the handsome man who was middle-aged but defeated time in front of her. Cold sweat broke out layer by layer on her back. In her previous life, she didn't have much dealings with King Zhenbei, because she couldn't match such a powerful opponent. All of them were dealt with by Xun Feng overtly and secretly.But it is undeniable that King Zhenbei's fate was very tragic. Not only was he expelled from the Kashgar Qing clan, but he also died in a confusing manner.

"My daughter, Shui Linglong, greets the lord." Shui Linglong tried her best to greet calmly.

"It's you?" Zhuge Liuyun's cold eyes flashed a trace of strong surprise, a lightning bolt suddenly lit up in the sky like dark clouds, shaking Shui Linglong's eyebrows twitched!
"Okay, I won't go in, take your things, remember, I'm going to take off her clothes, do you hear?" Not far away, Shui Lingyue's malicious conversation came.

Shui Linglong was overjoyed, but regarded death as home and said: "My lord, my daughter... My daughter didn't do it on purpose... If I don't offend me, I won't offend anyone. My daughter is just repaying the other person in her own way. She should have been lying in the bed The person who used to be a courtier is a courtier, but now it has become the chief culprit, if the prince thinks that the courtier is vicious and insists on killing the courtier, then the courtier will accept her fate!"

In Zhuge Liuyun's deep eyes, countless undercurrents swirled, like a whirlpool with suction, and the sharp eyes that burst out from the depths of the whirlpool seemed to see through her every disguise, and the cold wind rolled her hair , Gathering and dispersing suddenly, holding her slap-sized face, she is not beautiful, but calm and calm, with a faint stubbornness of not admitting defeat.

Shui Linglong remained silent, Shui Lingyue's appearance and her words could already prove that she hadn't seen anything just now, but Zhuge Liuyun's murderous aura remained undiminished. There can only be one explanation: he believed in the theory of inconsistency, but Zhuge Yu refused to resign, so he wanted to take the opportunity to kill her!

Countless thoughts flashed through Shui Linglong's mind, and suddenly, with a flash of inspiration, she raised her hand to straighten her hair at the temples, just revealing the gold emerald bracelet Zhuge Yu gave her.

Zhuge Liuyun's eyes trembled, and as soon as he grasped Shui Linglong's bright wrist, the strength almost broke it: "He actually gave you all of this."

Shui Linglong fearlessly met Zhuge Liuyun's lingering gaze, and an invisible contest began to spread between them.Shui Linglong is betting that Zhuge Liuyun will eventually cast a trap.

After a while, Zhuge Liuyun took a deep breath, let go of her, and took back his sword: "You are a smart person, you know what to say and what not to say."

"Yes, I just took a rest in another courtyard today, and didn't meet any noble people." Shui Linglong let out a long breath, winning the bet, what a risk!
Zhuge Liuyun changed the subject: "It's not that simple to get this king to agree to your marriage with Yu'er!"

Amitabha, this girl doesn't want to marry at all!Hello, let your son withdraw!

Of course, it would be good for Shui Linglong to have a good time in her heart, if she really wanted to say it, Zhuge Liuyun would have to kill her, in Zhuge Liuyun's view, Zhuge Yu dumped her as a matter of course, and she despised Zhuge Yu.In this evil old society, people are always unequal.

After Shui Linglong took Ye Mao away, Zhuge Liuyun turned into the westernmost wing of the other courtyard. Inside, a woman dressed as a little eunuch was already waiting. And Chi, even wearing the eunuch's clothes, does not have a luxurious and elegant charm.

Seeing Zhuge Liuyun, the woman's eyes turned red: "There are other people in the yard who actually understand our signal."

"It's just a sweeping maid, I've already dealt with it." Zhuge Liuyun said slowly, "I sent someone to search carefully, but I couldn't find the "Avalokitesvara Buddha Lotus", think again, is it not in your father's and brother's hands? "

The woman raised her eyes: "That painting has been lost for a long time, and I don't know where it went."

"Avalokitesvara Buddha"?Behind the rockery, Shui Linglong, who concentrated her energy and eavesdropped on the conversation, clenched her fists. She had a piece of "Avalokitesvara Buddha" in her hand, and she didn't know if it was the one King Zhenbei was looking for.

The woman recalled her sadness and sobbed, "They died so badly!"

Zhuge Liuyun patted her on the back and comforted her: "My condolences. Remember that you are the imperial concubine, and you must not shed tears for others."

The woman's gaze froze, and she said angrily: "Guo Yan slaughtered my whole family of the Dong family! Even a seven-year-old girl will not be spared! If I don't kill this insane beast, I won't be able to vent my hatred!"

The Dong family that the woman said should be the royal family of Mobei, but Shui Linglong didn't remember that there were people from Mobei among the emperor's concubines.

Zhuge Liuyun opened his mouth: "Guo Yan returned to the capital, there are many opportunities to deal with him, but as the saying goes, if you hit a snake and hit seven inches, you either don't do it, or you die with one move. Since I promised to avenge you I will definitely keep my promise, but how and when I do it is according to my wishes, do you understand?"

The woman nodded, choked up and said, "I understand, I believe you."

In the memory of her previous life, Guo Yan returned victoriously, was named a mighty general, and married the three princesses, but died young within a year. She didn't know why at the time, but now that she thinks about it, Guo Yan's death may be the king of Zhenbei. Move hands and feet with that woman.

Forget it, Guo Yan is not hers, life or death has nothing to do with her.

Shui Linglong and Ye Mao continued to hide behind the rockery, until Zhuge Liuyun and a young eunuch left through the back door, Ye Mao patted his chest and said in shock: "It was really thrilling just now!"

Shui Linglong couldn't help laughing: "I thought you weren't afraid of anything."

Ye Mao scratched his head and smiled naively: "Hee hee."

At this time, the sky was clear and cloudless, and the golden sun was shining on the snow, reflecting the dazzling light like gold.Shui Linglong squinted her eyes, suddenly, a young man in fine clothes and fine clothes came out from the forest not far away, who is this person?
"Really, Miss San was injured and you didn't report to me earlier? How can I punish you if something happens?" Qin Fangyi scolded a maid while walking, but her eyes couldn't stop looking around.Beside her are Shui Hangge with a cold face and Shui Lingxi who is frowning but not worried.

When everyone turned into the courtyard and opened the door to enter, they bumped into the man who rushed out of the door!

This person is not Qin Zhixiao, who is it?

Qin Zhixiao's heart pounded, and he forgot to say hello to Shui Hangge and Qin Fangyi.

Shui Linglong was slightly taken aback, a trace of sarcasm flashed across her eyes, if she ran a little slower, she would be the one who was "saved by a hero" by Qin Zhixiao naked, last time Qin Zhixiao blatantly sacrificed his reputation to rescue her Cheng Wei turned out to be just a gentle trap, this sanctimonious cousin had been working with Qin Fangyi so early on and wanted to plot her against her.The sad Shui Lingyu didn't know that she had made a mistake in her infatuation and was being treated like a monkey.No, maybe she knows it, but she deceives herself and wants to give it a go. It is hard for a woman not to become a fool in front of love, just like herself in her previous life.

Shui Lingxi glanced in, her face paled in fright: "My God! Third sister... Third sister... What's wrong with third sister..."

This scene is no longer enough to be described as horror. Shui Lingyu's clothes are hanging on her body indiscriminately, her hair is disheveled, her face is distorted, she keeps digging the hard wall with her fingers, all her nails are turned up, and some are inserted into the wall In the room, some were scattered on the ground, and two pieces were stuck on the blackened fingers. The pulp of the fingers was torn and fleshy, and the blood was all over the wall... Tweety fell to the side, dead.

Rao Shui Hangge, a tough man, couldn't help being horrified when he saw it. He swept his eyes and found two scorpions wagging their tails under the bed. Qin Zhixiao followed the trend and argued, "It's not me! I... I just happened to pass by, and when I heard someone shouting for help, I broke in!"

Qin Fangyi frowned, Shui Lingyue was really ruthless, she even presumptuously put poisonous scorpions in it!And what she was most puzzled about was, how could Shui Linglong, who was supposed to be lying here, become Shui Lingyu?

Shui Hangge's eyes turned cold: "Really? Why did I see you planning to run away! Did you kill Lingyu?"

Qin Zhixiao swallowed, of course he wanted to escape, what he wanted was Shui Linglong, not Shui Lingyu, if he didn't escape, would he wait for someone to catch him?
Qin Fangyi hurriedly smoothed things over: "People haven't lived here for a long time. Maybe the scorpion ran out from some corner. Lingyu is Zhixiao's cousin. Zhixiao has no reason to harm her. Well, don't worry about these things, hurry up and get Ling Send it back to the mansion and ask the doctor to treat it!"

Shui Hangge gestured to the servants, and the two servant girls stepped forward and held down Shui Lingyu, who had lost all reason. A tall maid slipped out from the back door where they could not see. It's the servant girl of the Shuifu, with her head lowered all the time, Shui Linglong couldn't see her appearance clearly, she only knew that there was a long scar on the right side of her face, which looked a little hideous, and because Shui Linglong had been trying to pay attention to King Zhenbei's movements just now, so He didn't pay attention to what happened in Shui Lingyu's room.
