Resourceful beauty

Chapter 31 The Heart of the Villain
"Miss said that it was she who was sorry for you, and told you...don't hate her."

In the elegantly furnished room, only a candlestick was lit on the high table in the corner, and the whole room looked a bit dark, so Lan Zhi couldn't see the expression on Lan Xi's face clearly.

Lan Xi clung to the bedpost and didn't say a word for a long time. Just when Lan Zhi got up to leave, she asked in a low voice, "When?"

"what?"

Before she could react, Lan Zhi froze on the spot, hesitated for a while, bit her lip and replied: "The princess has already sent Mother Zhao to the Qiu Mansion, and she will probably send you there tomorrow."

"I want to be alone for a while..."

In the darkness, there was a trace of suppressed sobs in Lan Xi's voice.

Lan Zhi and Lan Xi grew up together, how could Lan Zhi know what Lan Xi was thinking at this moment?

Almost instantly, Lan Zhi's eyes were stained with tears, she nodded, she turned and walked out of the room quickly, just as she stepped out of the door, tears fell down my cheeks.

Lan Zhi covered her mouth and trotted away.

In the room, Lan Xi stared blankly at the night outside the window, and suddenly smiled, but that smile looked so creepy in the darkness.

In Shu Yuxuan, Fang Ruxuan who heard the news sneered and said, "It's just picking up people's teeth..."

Last time, King Qi Li Daitao used his servant girl to cover up Fang Ruyu's joke in a stiff manner. This time, Su Yuan couldn't think of a way, so she could only repeat the old trick.

"Hey, poor Lanxi."

Ding Xiang sighed softly.

"you do not say……"

On the side, Su Ye echoed and said: "Lanxi is almost responsible for all the big and small things at the Lishui Pavilion. I thought that I would have a good future with the second lady, but now I have put my whole life on it. It's worth it, with such a master, I really don't think it's worth it for Lanxi."

As she said that, she seemed to feel that something was wrong with her words. Su Ye put down the work in hand, ran over to Fang Ruxuan and said, "Miss, you understand the meaning of slaves, don't you? Don't misinterpret slaves. "

Fang Ruxuan laughed. She wanted to tease Su Ye a few words at first, but in an instant, thinking of Lanxi's situation, her face was stained with sadness.

In her previous life, she was also calculated by Fang Ruyu and Qiu Shumin, and eventually became Qiu Ming's concubine.

In this life, although Fang Ruyu's treacherous plan did not succeed with an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, the cause and effect fell on Lan Xi.

Although Lanxi was Fang Ruyu's maid, in her previous life, she didn't feel sorry for herself, and even gave a piece of pastry in her sleeve to herself who was punished to kneel when she passed by the ancestral hall.

In this life, Fang Ruxuan will not be stingy with revenge and kindness, even if she does not have the strength to help her now.

"Go and find out what is the attitude of the Qiu Mansion, and when will Lanxi send it over."

Fang Ruxuan raised her eyes and said to Su Ye.

Su Ye nodded and left quickly.

In the early morning of the second day, when I went to the Yixin Hall to say hello, Su Yuan looked sleepy, Fang Ruyu looked distraught, obviously frightened by the bellyband that belonged to her yesterday, and Fang Ruhui, knowing that Fang Ruxuan had messed up, His eyes stared at Fang Ruxuan frequently, as if he wanted to poke a few holes in her body.

Coming out of Yixin Hall, Fang Ruxuan didn't stay too long, turned around and walked towards Shu Yuxuan, when she passed through the Chuihua Gate, she heard a slight weeping sound in the distance.

Glancing at Fang Ruxuan, Ding Xiang turned around and walked in that direction. After a while, a maid with her head bowed came over behind her.

Looking up, her beautiful face was full of tears, it was Lan Xi.

Yesterday evening, Mother Zhao went to the Qiu Mansion in the dark, and brought back the news that the Qiu Mansion was willing to settle the matter, and Lan Xi was sent to the Qiu Mansion in the evening today.

Fang Ruxuan didn't know what conditions Su Yuan used to convince Qiu Zongde and Mrs. Qiu, but Lanxi's fate was settled just now, and there was no room for change.

Fang Ruxuan sighed in her heart, and waved to Lanxi, "Come with me."

The two walked towards the backyard one after the other, Fang Ruxuan said softly: "Lanxi, there is a saying in the book, it is called a lost cause, but you know it is not a blessing, have you heard of it?"

With red eye circles, Lan Xi nodded.

"No one knows what will happen in the future, so don't think about the worst of everything, you know?"

Fang Ruxuan persuaded.

Seemingly unable to listen to anything, Lan Xi just nodded numbly, Fang Ruxuan paused, looked up at Lan Xi and said, "You think that you are finished, and getting to Qiu Mansion is just a dead end, right?"

Anyone would say words of comfort, but Fang Ruxuan was the first person to point out her future situation so bluntly, and Lan Xi couldn't help but look at Fang Ruxuan.

"Qiu Ming is an idiot. A lady from a rich family, no matter if she is a concubine or a concubine, she will not marry him. Those daughters from small families, given the status of Qiu's family, they will definitely look down on her." Therefore, Qiu Ming's future wives and concubines will either be maids from the Qiu family, or innocent girls bought from outside."

"He is only sixteen or seventeen years old now, and he certainly doesn't have a wife or concubine around him. You used to be a concubine in the past, and you are a servant girl who went out of the palace. Although it is not very honorable, as long as Prince Qi's mansion is in one day, people in the Qiu mansion I dare not do anything to you. After a long time, as long as you coax Qiu Ming to only listen to you, Mrs. Qiu will look at you differently."

"In two or three years, if you have a body, regardless of whether you are male or female, your status in the Qiu Mansion will be guaranteed, and you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future. If you have more means to make Qiu Ming want you, then, Why not be the young mistress of the Prime Minister's Mansion? Isn't it much better than marrying a steward from an outer courtyard, and still being a current person?"

"My words may be more straightforward, but if you think about it carefully, is it so reasonable?"

In the five years in Wutong Garden, Fang Ruxuan did nothing, but Qiu Ming just liked her and did not allow anyone to bully her. This is very difficult for ordinary people to do, but he is a fool, but he can do it .

But it is also because he is stupid that he can control it better.

Lanxi has been in the palace for so many years, she knows better than anyone else the way out for maids like her, not to mention she is a smart person, she listened to Fang Ruxuan's words while thinking, and now she understands clearly in her heart.

"Miss Six, what do you want the servant to do for you?"

Wen Xianyin knew the elegant meaning, Lan Xi asked sensitively.

Fang Ruxuan shook her head with a smile, "I just don't want you to end up in such a miserable situation. After all, you have served the second sister for so many years. Listen, or don't listen, or what to do, you have to think about it yourself. Words That's all, in the future, cherish it."

After finishing speaking, Fang Ruxuan turned and left. Lan Xi stood blankly by the flower pond by herself for a long time.

In the evening, a sedan chair took Lan Xi, who was wearing a wedding dress, to the Qiu Mansion.

In Lishui Pavilion, Fang Ruyu stood at the courtyard gate with a pale face, not moving for a long time.

Even if Lan Xi came to kowtow in front of her, she also came with a hijab on her head, and she didn't even want to look at her. She is blaming herself, right?

Aggrieved and unwilling, the handkerchief in Fang Ruyu's hand was twisted and lost its shape. Behind her, a little servant girl stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Miss, at noon, I saw Sister Lanxi and Miss Six talking in the backyard."

"What did you say?"

Fang Ruyu turned around abruptly, stared at the little maid and asked.

The little servant girl shook her head, "The servant girl was just passing by and caught a glimpse. Sister Ding Xiang and Sister Su Ye who were beside Miss Six were watching from a distance, and the servant girl did not dare to approach."

The person who was bought by Shu Yuxuan was found out by Fang Ruxuan silently, and she was tricked by herself.At the Qiu Mansion, what should have been Fang Ruxuan's apron obtained from Qiu Ming was replaced by her own in the end, and that apron was still made by Lanxi...

Lan Xi knows everything about him, big and small.Could it be that Lan Xi is the ghost in his house, and she told Fang Ruxuan about the matter in advance?

Thinking about it a little bit, the more Fang Ruyu thought about it, the more strange it felt.

Lan Zhi glared at the talkative little maid, stepped forward to defend Lan Xi, and said: "Miss, this servant and Lan Xi have served Miss since childhood, and have never had two hearts. Miss, please don't wrong Lan Xi."

"Injustice?"

Turning around to stare at Lan Zhi, Fang Ruyu asked back: "Then tell me, how did the sixth younger sister see through, and then bit me back to hurt me? And why did someone see her talking with Lan Xi? Why don't I know, my house When did the people here get so close to Shu Yuxuan?"

The person who was asked couldn't say anything, Lan Zhi looked sad and lowered her head. After a while, she muttered unwillingly: "If Lan Xi is really such a person, the belly pocket that appeared in the Qiu Mansion would not have been made by her." .”

Fang Ruyu's close-fitting clothes were all made by Lan Xi, but some of them were made by Fang Ruyu herself. If Lan Xi had told Fang Ruxuan in advance, since she knew that the incident was inevitable, the apron would be shown to others, and she would still use her own Wouldn't it be stupid to do it to frame Fang Ruyu?

Fang Ruyu was stunned for a while, then said in a tone of shame: "The matter has come to this point, what else can I do? Don't you want me to compensate her?"

Lan Zhi shook her head again and again, Fang Ruyu had already turned around and went back to the house before the words of apology came out. In the wind, some self-excusing words came from her, "Besides, she is a maid who can be a concubine for the young master of Xiangfu. Her ancestors have accumulated virtue..."

With an unbelievable expression on her face, Lan Zhi paused and froze on the spot.

In the Yixin Palace, Su Yuan rubbed her forehead and asked a little tiredly: "Is there any unpleasant words coming from outside?"

Qiu Tong shook her head, "I'm all guessing whether this is the beginning of a good relationship between Prince Qi's Mansion and Qiu Mansion. He also said that Princess Qi has a kind heart and made such a good story..."

In this case, Su Yuan didn't feel relaxed at all. Thinking of such strange things happening one after another since New Year's Eve, and Fang Ruxuan couldn't escape each of them, Su Yuan felt chest tight.

After a while, she seemed to remember something, turned her head to look at Zhao Mama and asked, "Do you still have any memories of that Aunt Guan who went to the Su Mansion before?"

　The author also feels that Fang Ruyu cannot be allowed to harm Qiu Ming. Are you satisfied with the result?
