Glory all the way

Chapter 236
The bed curtain was full of alcohol, and on the warm kang, the blushing "Du Xuan" fell asleep soundly. On the side, the maid carefully held the beauty bowl and placed it in front of the kang, and turned to Bai Yingluo and said: "Madam, I have already fed the young master to drink." Sober up soup."

Bai Yingluo nodded, lowered the bed curtain gently, turned her head and stared coldly at Butler Xiang, and said, "Why, you have to sit and wait until dawn, can't you leave after my husband wakes up?"

The calculation in his heart was in vain, Xiang Steward was already a little annoyed, but his face became even more ugly after being provoked by Bai Yingluo.

With a face of reluctance, he cupped his fists and bowed to Bai Yingluo, then Steward Xiang turned and went out the door.

Thinking of the drunken Du Xuan still in the East Wing, Bai Yingluo was worried, followed Steward Xiang's footsteps and walked out, intending to send him out of the gate of Yixin Garden.

As soon as the group of people descended the stone steps, they heard a slight sound from the east wing room. After careful identification, it seemed that someone was coughing. Then, there was a loud noise.

However, there was only one sound, and there was no more movement.

Looking at the dark east wing, Steward Xiang had a meaningful smile on his lips, "Mrs. Du, as far as I know, there are only two masters, Mrs. Du and Mrs. Du, in this Zhuangyuan's mansion, right?"

As early as when she heard the noise, Bai Yingluo's heart sank, seeing Steward Xiang becoming suspicious, she didn't know what to say.

In a daze, Xiang Steward turned around and headed towards the East Wing.

"Wait a minute..."

With a cold snort, looking at Steward Xiang who stopped and turned back to look at her, Bai Yingluo asked with a sullen face, "What? Are you still going to search my Zhuangyuan's mansion?"

"Slave dare not..."

Laughing, Steward Xiang replied: "The slave is for the good of Mrs. Du and Mrs. Du, and I hope Mrs. Du can forgive me. You know, the princess's mansion has escaped and the criminals are going to be the first to be searched. Tianfu is here, I'm afraid it will be like this too, Madam thinks?"

Seeing his sophistry, Bai Yingluo smiled instead of anger, "If the governor of Shuntian Mansion was here, I would naturally not say a word. But you, don't you have the qualifications? Want to search my Zhuangyuan's mansion? Yes, go back to the princess and ask for a handbook Come on, otherwise, if you dare to be presumptuous here, even if I sue the imperial court, I will never let it go. Do you think that the people in my Zhuangyuan Mansion and Jing'an Marquis Mansion are easy to bully?"

When Bai Yingluo was carried out of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, Steward Xiang's face suddenly became a little apprehensive.

But thinking of Bai Yingluo's obstruction, there must be something strange in the room. When I invited the handwritten letter, it might be too late. Xiang Steward was heartbroken, and replied with a sneer: "Although the servant does not have the princess' written letter, the oral letter does not. Yes, if Mrs. Du doesn't believe it, you can wait for the servant to finish the search, and go back to the princess mansion with the servant. When she arrives in front of the princess, Mrs. Du will naturally know. However, if you deliberately obstruct and let the criminal go, when the time comes, I don’t know if the Zhuangyuan Mansion and the Jing’an Marquis Mansion can afford it.”

After all, Xiang Steward took a few steps forward regardless, stretched out his hand and pushed open the door vigorously.

Bai Yingluo only felt that her eyes were dark, but on the other hand, she pinched herself severely and raised her heel to follow her.

There was a mess inside the door, and some people were sighing in a low voice.

Knowing that the voice came from Suiyuan, Bai Yingluo's heart moved, and she ordered the little maid to light up the lights in the room.

In front of him was an overturned bookshelf, the books on the shelf fell to the ground, and a bench was also pressed under the bookshelf.

On the side, the kerosene lamp was overturned on the ground, while Suiyuan was hugging his legs and sighing in a low voice, his body curled up into a shrimp, his face was even redder from suffocation.

"Suiyuan, what are you doing?"

Looking back at Liuying, and asking her to help Suiyuan up, Bai Yingluo asked sharply, with an imperceptible tremor in her voice.

"Madam, I know I was wrong, so don't punish me."

Seeing that Bai Yingluo brought a group of people, Sui Yuan didn't care about crying out for pain, and hurriedly stood up and knelt down to plead guilty, seeing a flame ignited on the overturned oil lamp, and a nearby book was set alight, Sui Yuan Not caring too much, he flapped his sleeves, and the mournful look on his face became more and more obvious.

"What's going on? It's so late, what are you doing in the study instead of resting in your own room?"

Bai Yingluo asked.

Holding the half-burned book in his hand, Suiyuan said in a low voice: "You told the servant to stay with the young master all the time. Just now the young master fell asleep, and the servant planned to go back. But during the day, the young master told the young one that there was a Tomorrow, this "General History of the Four Libraries" will be taken to the Hanlin Academy, but the servants are afraid that they will forget it early in the morning, so they come in with a lighted lamp to look for it, but unexpectedly, they trample over the stool."

Saying that, Sui Yuan was about to cry, "Ma'am, I didn't do it on purpose."

While Sui Yuan was replying, Steward Xiang had already looked back at the brightly lit East Wing, and there was nothing unusual about the entrance.

"I'll send you back later..."

Pretentiously glaring at Suiyuan, Bai Yingluo turned her head and asked Steward Xiang, "Why, do you want to search?"

With Bai Yingluo's recalcitrant appearance, Steward Xiang couldn't be sure, and muttered angrily, "Madam was joking, the slave didn't intend to search", turned and left angrily.

After hearing the housekeeper reply that those people had already left and the door was locked, Bai Yingluo slumped on the edge of the soft couch, completely powerless.

Looking at Suiyuan who was still kneeling on the ground, Bai Yingluo glanced at Liusu.

When Liusu pulled him up, Bai Yingluo hurriedly asked, "Where is your son?"

Suiyuan timidly scratched his head, squatted down, and lifted the curtain under the soft couch where Bai Yingluo was sitting, Du Xuan's mouth was stuffed with a veil, and it was stuffed there.

Several people hastily pulled Du Xuan out and carried him to the soft couch. Du Xuan was still in a deep sleep. Bai Yingluo looked at Suiyuan with a face full of tears and laughter, glanced at the overturned bookshelf and asked, "Then, what happened?" thing?"

"Young Master coughed and vomited all over the floor. When he heard the movement outside, the little one pulled over the bookshelf before he could clean it."

Sui Yuan muttered blushingly.

Thinking about it now, Bai Yingluo was covered in cold sweat. Just now, if Steward Xiang found Du Xuan, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Bai Yingluo couldn't help boasting: "Good boy, he's clever enough, and he's rewarded."

"Mrs. Xie's compliments are all small things should be done."

Scratching his head embarrassingly, Suiyuan called Chen Xiang and the others to help, and lifted the bookshelf.

After picking up the books scattered on the ground, there was an impressive amount of filth and an unpleasant smell, even if Sui Yuan cleaned it up decisively, the smell couldn't be covered up for a while.

Feeling emotional in her heart, Bai Yingluo praised Suiyuan again, and Fang took Chen Xiang and the others back to the house.

Du Xuan was also carried back, and the bed in the inner room was already empty.

Liu Ying, who had been standing by the side all the time, said: "Ma'am, Mr. Bai took advantage of the chaos and left just now, saying that he would come to see you and Mr. Xiao some other day."

As long as he can't be found in the Zhuangyuan Mansion, there is no valid reason for Xiang Steward to take the opportunity to trouble Bai Yi, or Princess Qingcheng wants to punish Bai Yi's crimes, and when Bai Yi returns to the Princess Mansion, there must be a way to resolve it .

Thinking so, Bai Yingluo exhaled lightly and said, "Then let him go."

After tossing and tossing all night, Bai Yingluo only felt exhausted all over her body. When she lay down after taking a bath, she felt a faint sense of slumping in her stomach. In the middle of the night, she felt a little pain.

Crying in pain softly, Liu Su, who was on duty outside at night, woke up and came in holding a lampstand. Seeing that Bai Yingluo's face was like gold paper, she hurriedly called for Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Liao.

Chen Xiang didn't dare to delay, took Bai Yingluo's counter card, and ordered the housekeeper to invite Dr. Du to Du's Pharmacy. In this room, Granny Cui had already brought the prepared wormwood without hesitation, and smoked it for Bai Yingluo.

In two quarters of an hour, Dr. Du arrived.

After checking the pulse and prescribing the prescription, Dr. Du said to Chen Xiang: "I'm overly nervous and running around too much, so I'm a little tired, so it's okay. I prescribed an anti-birth prescription, take a good rest these few days, three days I'll come back to check the pulse later on."

Chen Xiang sent Dr. Du away with gratitude.

After smoking wormwood and drinking the brewed anti-fetal medicine, it was not until dawn that Bai Yingluo felt comfortable.

Caressing her lower abdomen, Bai Yingluo said softly: "It's all mother's fault, and you have been wronged. Let's not make an example, okay?"

There was a slight movement in her belly, as if the child was responding to Bai Yingluo, and Bai Yingluo smiled gratifiedly.

It was warm under her body, but her spirit was not sleepy at all. Seeing that it was almost time for Du Xuan to get up, Bai Yingluo lay quietly beside him, and when he woke up, she told him the news he had been looking forward to. he.

On the other side of the princess's mansion, Steward Xiang entered the mansion with a sad face, and was told that the princess was still waiting in the main hall, and immediately had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Have you found someone?"

The housekeeper kowtowed and got up, and Princess Qingcheng asked in a cold voice.

"Slaves are not good at doing things..."

After pleading guilty, Steward Xiang explained everything that happened in the Zhuangyuan Mansion in detail, and muttered angrily: "Princess, although there is no evidence, I am sure that there must be something abnormal in the Zhuangyuan Mansion. The third son has disappeared several times. The No. [-] Scholar’s ​​Mansion must not be able to escape the relationship.”

Uncompromising, Princess Qingcheng shook the bright red wine juice in the white jade wine glass in her hand, and asked lazily: "What about Sanlang? Can you find it?"

Butler Xiang shook his head a little discouraged.

The hall fell silent.

Guessing how his master would punish him, a layer of sweat broke out on Xiang Steward's forehead.

In the silence, Princess Qingcheng yelled: "Who? What are you doing furtively there?"

Outside the door, a boy with a stunning appearance flashed out.

"Lu Er, what are you doing here if you're not sleeping in your room?"

After seeing who was coming, Princess Qingcheng asked softly.

"Princess, I found my third brother."

The boy called Green Ear walked up to Princess Qingcheng and said.

"Where is he?"

Princess Qingcheng sat up straight, and when she got down, Steward Xiang also raised her eyes and stared closely at Lu Er.

"He was drunk in the wine cellar, and I saw the boy in charge of the wine helping him back to the house."

Green Ear replied crisply.

Xiang Steward's face was ashen, but Princess Qingcheng's lips suddenly smiled a little more.
