Houmen Yixiang

Chapter 115 I Dare To Promise With Your Body, Do You Dare To Accept It With Your Body?

On September [-]th, Shen Qingzhu and Shen Yuyan were brothers and sisters in Lanying Villa.chaos.As soon as the matter of love broke out, it was revealed that Shen Qingzhu raped Wen Ruxiang in front of Shen's mansion one after another. As for the affair between the niece of the Guangping Hou's mansion and her uncle, it was quickly covered up by these two incidents.

The accusations surrounding Guangping Hou's Mansion and Wuyang Hou's Mansion quickly turned to Shen's Mansion, and the people in the two mansions were greatly relieved.

Everyone in the capital was discussing these two matters excitedly, and at one point the nobles in the palace were disturbed to ask questions. After learning about it, they all reprimanded the rumors in the market, saying that Shen Qingzhu and Shen Yuyan are the hosts of the tea tasting club. Personal affairs can be done at any time, why bother to take such a big risk on that day?He must have been framed by someone else to behave improperly, including the misbehavior towards Wen Ruxiang later on, someone must have caused trouble!

It's not that the nobles in the palace are so discerning about right and wrong, but that Wu Wan, one of the insiders, told the matter immediately after returning to the palace. From her identity and perspective, these words naturally increased a lot Credibility, to win the recognition of noble people.

The second prince Wu Zhe clamored even more that he must find the real culprit behind the scenes, tear his body apart, and seek justice for Shen Qingzhu and Shen Yuyan!He even went to Shen's residence in person to express his belief in the determination of the two of them!

As soon as the words of the nobles spread, the rumors in the market really decreased a lot.

Immediately afterwards, it was revealed that Mrs. Gong Shao left angrily on the day of the poetry meeting. From Yan Yulang, one of the organizers, it was vaguely known that Shen Qingzhu was thinking about Mrs. Gong Shao, and it happened that Shen Yuyan lost to Gong Shao before. Madam was upset, so the two conspired to murder Madam Gong Shao, who knew that one of them was accidentally tricked by himself, which led to the anecdote of the pavilion in Furong Villa and the tyrant in front of Shen's residence.

The feasibility of this statement, although no siblings.chaos.The love is so exciting, but the credibility is much higher, and even the nobles in the palace can't say anything now.

This matter had just been reported for a day, and another more explosive news came out!

Shen Qingzhu, was abolished!
Became a eunuch!

It is said that someone sneaked into the mansion in the middle of the night and crushed it with their feet.

According to the servant in the mansion, the screams alarmed the entire Shen mansion.

The head of the Shen family, Shen Jingyun, jumped up from the hospital bed in shock, vowing to severely punish the culprits!
Unexpectedly, the searchers hadn't been dispatched yet, but Shen Jingyun found a crime statement on the table, and counted the list of noble ladies with whom Shen Qingzhu had been in secret over the years, and there were many important ministers in the court.

Shen Jingyun collapsed to the ground, and immediately called back the people who went out to search!
This evil root, good to go!

Shen Jingyun judged that the person who committed the crime against Shen Qingzhu this time must be the husband-in-law of a certain woman on the list, and he was annoyed that he was cuckolded, so he abolished Shen Qingzhu to relieve his hatred!

If it is finally found out, the Shen family will be ashamed!Shen Jingyun forcibly choked back a mouthful of old blood, and announced to the government that no one is allowed to bring up this matter\and investigate it again!Externally, it was claimed that Shen Qingzhu was scalded somewhere by boiling water!

He also took away the power of the eldest wife of the Shen family on the grounds of improper discipline, and the two elders of the Shen family relied on each other. Shen Qingzhu was abolished, and Shen Yuyan was expelled from the Moon Temple. After a setback, the second wife of the Shen family began to rise.

And then things are not over yet.

On September [-]th, the affairs of Shen Qingzhu and the ladies and gentlemen were spread everywhere in central Beijing, the words were conclusive, the location and date of the private meeting, and the clothes they wore that day were all clearly stated.

Shen Jingyun was so angry that he wanted to secretly send someone to find out the person who abolished Shen Qingzhu and spread the list, but after checking, that person only spread the list of family members of some insignificant officials, while the lists of family members of some important ministers did not leak out.

This move is clearly a malicious move with a warning in it, if the Shen family dares to act rashly, that person will not mind publishing the complete list!
It was only then that Shen Jingyun realized that maybe the Shen family tree was attracting attention, or maybe the Shen family children accidentally offended someone who shouldn't be offended, so they were maliciously attacked and retaliated by the other party.

From now on, I will strictly rectify the family style, punish the offspring who have misbehaved in the mansion, and never slacken, so as to rectify the family style!

When Lu Xinyan heard about this, she couldn't help clapping her hands!I greatly admire the person who secretly punished Li Qingzhu. Such a shameless person is really relieved to use this method to deal with him!

"Miss, just now the little monkey threw in a note." Qing Tong handed over the note.

Lu Xinyan took a look, raised her eyebrows slightly, "Xiao Shizi has found out who is behind the scenes."

"who is it?"

Lu Xinyan handed the note to her, Qingtong glanced at it, and said in surprise: "It's really her!" Then she curled her lips, "Nothing can escape Miss's eyes, it's boring."

Lu Xinyan glared at her, "Go and inform Uncle Tian, ​​we will go and bring the son back together later!"

"Yes, ma'am."

"Wait, that girl Yueyue is still the same?"

"It's better, Miss, do you want Liaoyue to notify Uncle Tian?"

"Forget it, it's a very important matter, you should go this time." Lu Xinyan said: "We will talk about the Yueyue matter when we come back from the palace."

There are still three days before he will enter the palace to perform for the queen mother, and the matter of Miyata Yu must be resolved smoothly within these three days!

"Then I'll go."

When I went to pay my respects to Mrs. Feng in the afternoon, not only Mrs. Jiang was there, but Mrs. Lian was also there.

Seeing Lu Xinyan, Jiang Shi naturally had no good face, Feng Shi smiled, Lian Shi covered his mouth and chuckled, "Yo, Cao Cao Cao Cao will be here soon, Zhuzhu, I just talked to my aunt about the son and you."

After Lu Xinyan finished her salute, she sat down leaning against Feng's family, showing the tenderness of her little daughter, "Did the third cousin say anything bad about me?"

"How can it be? Aunt and sister-in-law will testify for me." Lian Shi giggled, "I mean, you and Shizi are like the happy enemies in the storybook. If you don't give in, you will slowly develop feelings for each other, and finally love you to the end! So I advise my aunt and sister-in-law not to worry too much about you, maybe you will be able to embrace your great-grandson in a few days!"

"How can the story in the storybook be taken seriously?" Lu Xinyan smiled, "The storybook often says that sisters-in-law frame each other, sisters are jealous of their sister's marriage, brothers covet brother's money, and one room fantasizes about the other. Powerful people, if you move to this life, how can you survive this life?"

Her eyes turned slightly, she looked at Lian Shi with some meaning, and spoke like a needle, "Aunt Third Cousin, don't you think so?"

Lian's complexion changed suddenly, he quickly yelled two hahas, and said with a smile: "Zhuzhu has such a mouth, she can really talk, Aunt Sanbiao is not your opponent, okay, okay, I won't make fun of you anymore."

After laughing, he continued: "But having said that, I really haven't seen the son for several days. The son was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, and he just stayed outside for a day or two. After staying for several days, he didn't know whether he would eat well or sleep well. Be careful, outsiders are not attentive to you."

As soon as these words came out, Jiang's eyes of resentment immediately stabbed at Lu Xinyan like a knife.

If it weren't for her, how could my precious son go away for several days and not return, and I don't know if the money in my hand is enough!
Feng's smile dissipated, worry surfaced on his face, and he looked at Lu Xinyan expectantly.

"Zhuzhu, Yu'er did something wrong before. You taught him, but grandmother never said a word. The incident with the maid beside you was also wrong with Yu'er. If he comes back, grandma will punish him herself! Zhuzhu, what do you think?" ?”

"Grandmother ordered, Zhuzhu dare not disobey!"

Feng Shi was overjoyed, "Daughter-in-law, immediately send someone to find Yu'er!"

Jiang Shi was also overjoyed, "Understood, mother, my daughter-in-law will do it right away."

"It's all over now, everyone is happy! Congratulations, aunt and sister-in-law!" Lian's face was full of smiles.

At night, the people sent by the Jiang family returned, but there was no sign of Miyata Yu.

"What's going on here? Where's the young master?"

The few who went were all the servants next to Miyata Yu, and one of them said with a bitter face: "Go back to Madam, the young master can't be found."

"Can't find it?"

"The young master went out that day, and it was the young one who accompanied the young master to the Yicui Building. The next day, the young one persuaded the young master to come back, but the young master refused, saying that he would stay for a few more days. The younger one has rushed back. This afternoon, the younger one went to Yicui Building. Miss Duoer said that the young master left on the fifteenth day. The younger ones searched all the places that the young master frequented, and they all said that they hadn’t seen the young master for a long time. As soon as I hear this, I will hurry back and report to Madam." The young man said in a low voice, "Small, I am afraid of the young master...something happened to me...unexpectedly, Madam, please send more people out to look for it."

Jiang felt her body was emptied in an instant, and she couldn't support herself and fell on the chair with a back comb. Madam Su hurriedly supported her, kicked the young man, and reprimanded: "What nonsense are you talking about? The young master is just playing for a while. , if you talk nonsense, be careful I will slap your mouth!"

Gently rubbed Jiang's temples again, "Madam, you must not fall down at this time! The young master is trying to scare you by being naughty, you need to send some people out to catch him and teach him a good lesson."

"Yes! That's right!" Jiang Shiru grasped a piece of duckweed, "It must be like this! He must be mischievous and playful. He often scared me like this when I was a child! My son has a good temper and never offends...people... "

Jiang became angry, "Yu'er didn't offend anyone when he was outside. In this marquis' mansion, there are people who wish he could die! That bitch went out on fifteenth day, and it happened that Yu'er disappeared after fifteenth. It must have something to do with her!"

"Ma'am!" Mother Su hurriedly comforted her. She could see the lessons learned by Mother Zhou. When Madam offends Young Madam, at most Madam will be locked up again. She will not be so lucky! "The young lady respects the old lady, and the young master is the only grandson of the old lady, so even if the young lady really took the young master away, even if she gets angry with the young master again, at most it will be like hanging on a tree to vent her anger last time, and she will definitely not hurt him! But If it wasn't for the young lady's hand..."

Su Momo didn't go any further, "Madam, why don't you send someone to look for the young master first!"

Jiang Shi calmed down, "Come here, send 30 more people out to find the young master!"

It's not that Jiang believes that Miyata Yu is not in Lu Xinyan's hands, on the contrary, she believes that Lu Xinyan took Miyata Yu away!However, before there is no evidence, Jiang decided not to act rashly, otherwise Lu Xinyan might take her anger out on Miyata Yu!
So she had to look for evidence first, and the evidence was that Miyata Yu could not be found in this capital!As long as Miyata Yu cannot be found, it means that Miyata Yu has been hidden by someone, and the person who hid him must be Lu Xinyan!At that time, she can drag Lu Xinyan to confront Feng Shi and force her to hand over Miyata Yu!
"Yes, ma'am!"

Here, the Jiang family sent people out to continue looking for Gong Tianyu's whereabouts, and while it was getting dark, Lu Xinyan left from the Shizi Mansion next door, and went to Xiao Yichen's other courtyard.

Lu Xinyan wanted to see Miyata Yu's miserable state first, but was stopped by the little monkey, "Mrs. Gong, the young master said you are here, so go directly to his study."

"Qingtong, go and see Shizi, I will go to see Shizi Xiao first."

The appearance of the study room is not much like most study rooms, but it is not the one that Xiao Yichen took her to last time.

This guy, the cunning rabbit and the three caves, it seems that it must be because of too many enemies!
"Master, Mrs. Gong is here."

"Go down." A cool and pleasant voice came from behind the desk.

Little Monkey: How about the lonely man and widow?
"Not going down yet?" Someone raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, sir."

I'm doing this for your sake, okay?The little monkey slandered, and when he went out, he kept the door ajar, as if this would avoid suspicion.

Lu Xinyan rolled her eyes, little monkey, your young master has long since lost his reputation!

The man behind the desk, dressed in an eternal crescent-colored robe, was looking down at the official documents. The light orange oil lamp slanted on his face from the upper left, and he was as handsome as jade.

Everyone is calling, what are you pretending to do?Lu Xinyan snorted softly, "Xiao Shizi, thank you for the matter of Gong Shizi."

"What are you going to do next?" Someone asked lightly.

The woman's figure is slender and graceful, and it is impossible to move one's eyes away at a glance.

"I also ask Shizi Xiao to help me."

"How to help?"

"Let that assassin tell the people behind the scenes tonight that Prince Gong is in my hands, and he will be transferred tomorrow afternoon! Then let the assassin tell the people behind the scenes that the assassination failed and his whereabouts will be leaked."

"You want to follow the plan, mess up the opponent's position, let the opponent show their traces in a panic, and catch the turtle in the urn?"

Lu Xinyan said: "Yes! I will enter the palace in a few days. This matter cannot be delayed, but to solve it thoroughly, there must be definite evidence!"

Xiao Yichen glanced at her quietly, "Got it, I will arrange someone to do it later!"

"Thank you, Mr. Xiao, this time I will treat you as a favor." Lu Xinyan said sincerely.

Xiao Yichen slowly closed the official document, and said with a half-smile: "Miss Lu, do you know how many favors you owe me in total?"

"Xiao Shizi means..." Do you want to start to settle accounts with her?
"The first time was Wuyanghou Mansion, the second time was Lanying Villa, and this time, a total of three times." Someone tapped his finger on the table, calmly stating the facts.

"Xiao Shizi is so kind, I will definitely find a way to repay..."

A certain person lowered his eyes and said: "Everyone in the world says that the grace of saving a life should be promised with your body."

Lu Xinyan blinked, was she teasing her?

Her eyes fluttered, she smiled, she was as beautiful as a flower, extremely touching, and her unusually soft voice rang in the study, "I dare to promise you with my body, Prince Xiao, do you dare to accept it with your body?"

I dare to promise you with my body, Mr. Xiao, do you dare to accept it with your body?The voice lingered in Xiao Yichen's ears like the echo of a valley.

His ear tips were hot, and his whole body was stiff.

This woman is really bold!He was just joking, but she dared to tease him in turn? !

(Lu Xinyan: Are you joking? Forgive my poor eyesight, I didn't see it from your old face.)
He didn't answer it, and he didn't answer it, and he stared at her angrily.

Lu Xinyan blinked charmingly, as if she was embarrassed not to see him.

In the end Xiao Yichen was defeated, and coughed twice to change the subject, "Where will you stay after Mr. Gong picks you up?"

"Speaking of this," Lu Xinyan blinked happily, "I have to trouble Shizi Xiao once more."

Xiao Yichen's face darkened, "You want to put him in my Shizifu?"

Don't just tarnish his other house, but also want to tarnish his Shizifu?

Absolutely not!

Lu Xinyan shrugged, "If Shizi Xiao is not willing, then I will hide him in my pomegranate yard."

"A big man went to the pomegranate yard..." What kind of words!Before saying the next few words, I suddenly remembered that the Pomegranate Courtyard was originally the courtyard where Miyata Yu and Lu Xinyan got married, and it was normal for Miyata Yu to live there!
Xiao Yichen suddenly felt uncomfortable all over, and changed his words abruptly, "It's inconvenient for a big man to go to the pomegranate yard...it's not convenient, they are all women! Forget it, I will help people to the end, I will do what I can, and put it in my son's mansion!"

"Then thank you, Mr. Xiao!" Lu Xinyan said with a smile, "Now I will arrange for someone to send Mr. Gong to you quietly."

The look of wanting to turn around without nostalgia at all made someone very upset, beckoning, "Come here." Go away when you're done, how can it be so easy!

Lu Xinyan was stunned at first, but then realized, "Xiao Shizi wants to see your 'hand', promise, it's in good condition, take good care of it every day!"

Also said that she has no special hobbies, is it so obvious that she is blind and brain-dead?

Lu Xinyan obediently raised her hands to Xiao Yichen, blinking her eyes, begging for praise.

Someone secretly glanced at her, and moved to those hands. They were as slender as jade, white and smooth, like the tips of tender lotus roots just out of water, and they wanted to take a bite just looking at them.

Thinking this way in his heart, he unconsciously did so with his hand, grabbed it and put it to his mouth.

"Ah!" Lu Xinyan frowned in pain and withdrew her hand, looked at the obvious teeth marks on her index finger, and complained, "Why did you bite me?"

Who told you that your hands are born to be bitten?Xiao Yichen said calmly: "This is a lesson for you to speak inappropriately just now!"

"What inappropriate words?" Lu Xinyan thought angrily, "You said that you promised yourself with your body? You mentioned that first!"

"Even if I mentioned it first, you should answer 'please Xiao Shizi don't make fun of me', and you should strictly refuse!" Xiao Yichen said righteously and sternly.

The current him doesn't know how many times the woman in front of him has angered him because of what he said now, and how much sulk he will have in secret because of the words he said now!
Is there something wrong with this man?He can make jokes casually, but wants her to observe etiquette?Lu Xinyan was too lazy to argue with him, so she casually saluted, "Please don't make fun of my concubine, Mr. Xiao!"

Then he rolled his eyes, "Is it okay now?"

"Perfunctory!" Xiao Yichen hummed and spit out two words, Shi Shiran stood up, "Let's go."

At noon the next day, Lu Xinyan deliberately took Qingtong Baizhi to go out, but was stopped at the gate of the pomegranate yard by Jiang, who had been waiting there earlier.

"Ma'am, what do you mean?" Lu Xinyan asked coldly.

Jiang's face was expressionless, "Your grandmother invited you over, and I have something to ask you."

Lu Xinyan raised her foot and walked out, "I have something urgent to go out now, and I will visit grandma when I come back."

"Do you want your grandma to invite you?" Jiang snorted coldly.

"Why is it so urgent that you have to go now? I have seen my grandmother once in the morning, and my grandmother didn't say anything at that time."

Jiang's mouth was lifted, "Now and then, if you want to know something, you will know when you go."

That situation must force her to go!
Lu Xinyan turned her head and said, "Qingtong Baizhi, first follow me to my grandmother's place to say hello."

She took off the cloak and handed it to Qingtong, as if she was about to go out after seeing Feng Shi.

Jiang shi saw it, and secretly hated her, but she knew that if she dared to make trouble at this time, Lu Xinyan would not give her face at all, and she might just leave like this.

The Fushouyuan was the same as usual, but the mothers-in-law and maidservants who came and went seemed nervous. When they saw Lu Xinyan, they lowered their heads in panic, and then looked at her quietly after a while. The probing eyes made the atmosphere a bit weird.

"Old madam, madam has brought young madam here." Nanny Sun stood at the door, saw Lu Xinyan, and shouted with a complicated expression.

"Come in."

"Yes, old lady." Nanny Sun lifted the curtain and let Lu Xinyan and Jiang shi in.

After autumn, Feng Shi, who was not in good health, was afraid of the cold, so he hung up thick curtains early.

Mrs. Jiang let Lu Xinyan go in first, and she fell behind, so she quietly asked Grandma Sun: "Where are the 20 or so young servants I brought?"

Nanny Sun said in a low voice: "The old lady let her go, saying that firstly, there was no evidence, and secondly, because she couldn't be caught if she wanted to. There's no need to get so stiff."

The Jiang family was dissatisfied and muttered: "The third brother and sister's mother's family saw it with their own eyes, even found the place, and said there is no evidence? Mother is too biased!"

Lu Xinyan asked Qingtong Baizhi to stay outside, walked in by herself, saw Feng Shi reclining on the Arhat couch, smiled and called out: "Grandmother!"

Feng's expression was weary, and he forced a smile, "Zhuzhu is here, come and sit down beside grandma."

Lu Xinyan glanced sideways at Lian Shi who was sitting beside her, and stretched out her hand to support Feng Shi, "Grandmother, Zhuzhu is going to enter the palace in a few days, and I happened to think of a new style this morning, and I was going out to choose some materials when I came back, and I was just about to leave The Pomegranate Court ran into Madam and said that Grandma has something to ask me! Grandma, why are you looking for Zhuzhu?"

"It's not a big deal." Feng Shi was thinking about how to speak, but Jiang Shi rushed forward with dissatisfaction: "Mother, Yu'er's life and death are still unknown in her hands, so it's no big deal?"

Lu Xinyan was surprised and said: "The life and death of the son is unknown in my hands? Ma'am, what does this mean?"

Mrs. Jiang condemned loudly: "Stop pretending! On September [-]th, the Tea Poetry Meeting at Furong Mountain Villa was canceled because of the Shen family's affair, and you left early. Calculated by the distance, you should have been ugly at the end of the day." Yin Shichu came back, but you didn't come back until Chen Shichu, where did you go during the two hours?"

Lu Xinyan panicked and said, "Aunt Sanbiao said she wanted to eat red bean cakes, so I took a detour to buy red bean cakes for Aunt Sanbiao."

"Buy a red bean cake, at most half an hour, how can it take two hours?"

"I... encountered something on the road... I was delayed, the carriage... yes, the carriage suddenly broke down, and it took an hour to fix it!" Lu Xinyan hesitated at first, and then deliberately raised the volume, as if to affirm her words, "I don't believe Madam can do it. Go ask the coachman that day!"

"The coachman is your man, so naturally you can say what you say!" Jiang sneered, "But the fact that some people have seen it is not like this!"

"What did someone see?" Lu Xinyan panicked at first, but quickly regained her composure, "I stayed in the carriage and didn't get off, I'm afraid others may have misread it."

"The carriage of our Guangping Marquis Mansion has its own logo. Even if you don't get off, others will know that there are people from the Guangping Marquis Mansion! On September [-]th, you were the only one who went out in the carriage!" Jiang Shi A sneer appeared on his lips, "Third siblings, you know this matter best, tell me!"

Lien's name seemed to shrink back when she was suddenly named, but she still dared to say: "Zhuzhu, my natal sister-in-law knew that I like red bean cakes, so she sent someone to buy them that day, but it turned out that when she saw you, someone knocked the prince unconscious. , grab your carriage and take it away!"

"Third Biao Aunt, you are talking nonsense!" Lu Xinyan stood up suddenly, her voice was slightly sharp, and her expression was agitated, "Did I meet any prince that day? How could I take him away? I just went to help you buy red bean cakes! Why did you frame me like this?"

Lien was taken aback, "Zhu...Zhuzhu, I'm just telling the truth, I didn't intend to frame you! This morning, my natal sister-in-law came to deliver sweet-scented osmanthus cakes to Qianer. My natal sister-in-law only talked about it when she was worried about something wrong with him. When she heard the report from the servants in the mansion, she thought you young couple were joking and didn't take it seriously. Only this morning did she realize that the matter was serious, so she made the matter of that day Tell me, it's about the son, I dare not hide it, so I told my aunt and sister-in-law about it."

"Just based on the one-sided words of a servant, do you believe it? Is there any other evidence?" Lu Xinyan said angrily.

Seeing that she was so stubborn, Jiang became angry, and said sharply: "If it was just a servant's one-sided words, of course we would not believe it! But coincidentally, on the way back, the servant of Lianfu passed the Laifu Inn, and Seeing the carriage of our Hou Mansion, I saw someone secretly helping Yu'er, who was knocked out before, into the inn! Lu Xinyan, you will lock Yu'er in the inn for a few days, what do you want? What did the abuse look like?"

"Laifu... inn?" Lu Xinyan panicked even more, and said incoherently: "No, I haven't, I haven't been to that inn, I didn't knock Shizi unconscious, and I didn't take him away..."

"Stop acting! Since yesterday afternoon, I sent someone to look for Yu'er all night, but no one was found. It was clearly hidden by someone! And the only person who is dissatisfied with him is you, Lu Xinyan! I suspected it was You, now that someone in the Lianfu has seen it with their own eyes, it must be absolutely true!"

Jiang said: "Just now I have sent someone to pick up Yu'er! If I wasn't afraid that you would go out and take him away, I would definitely find him and then confront you! But it doesn't matter now, it will be the same when Yu'er comes back ! Later, I will see how you are still sophistrying?"

"So you dragged me on purpose and didn't let me go out?" Lu Xinyan asked with wide-eyed eyes.

"That's right!" Jiang raised his chin, faced Feng, and said proudly, "Mother, whether you agree or not, I will divorce her this time! Such a narrow-minded and vicious person, we are the ones who stay behind." The scourge of the Hou Mansion!"

Feng said disappointedly: "Zhu Zhu, is this true? Why did you do this? You clearly promised grandmother yesterday that when Yu'er came back, grandma would personally punish him. Why did you go back on your word? Why didn't you tell Yu'er yesterday? Was it captured by you?"

"Grandmother, I don't, I really don't." Lu Xinyan couldn't help covering her face, shaking her shoulders as if crying, but her heart burst into laughter.

Emma, ​​this acting is really not ordinary tiring!
"Lu Xinyan, you can just act. Let me see how long you can act." Jiang said loudly: "Nurse Sun, it's almost time, please wait at the gate in person. Come here, mother!"

Nanny Sun glanced at Feng Shi.

Feng Shi nodded, and said weakly: "Go."

After Sun Nanny left, the room suddenly fell silent.

Feng's face was full of sadness, Jiang's looked at Lu Xinyan coldly and proudly, Lian's downcast eyes couldn't see the expression in her eyes clearly, but the corners of her mouth that couldn't be suppressed showed her good mood at the moment.

Lu Xinyan curled her lips lightly, lowered her eyelids, and played with her fingers, with an aggrieved look on her face.

At this time, a red silk voice sounded outside, "Old Madam, Uncle Fu has something to ask."

Uncle Fu is the concierge, Jiang Shi was overjoyed, "But Yu'er is back?"

Hongxiao hesitated for a while, "Go back to Madam, there is no news about the son, Madam Shen, the wife's natal sister-in-law, sent someone to deliver something, she said that she forgot to bring it to the Third Madam when she came here in the morning. Specially sent someone to deliver it."

When Jiang heard that it wasn't Miyata Yu's news, she was overjoyed, and complained dissatisfiedly, "What is so valuable that it has to be sent to mother, why not send it directly to the third sibling's yard?"

Lian said anxiously: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, my natal sister-in-law knows that I can't sleep well these days, so she is worried that I went to ask for a Taoist talisman for me, but she forgot to bring it when she went out in the morning, so she sent it specially. .I heard that it is best to hand over the consecrated things to the person directly. It is not good to change hands too much, so..."

"Forget it, it's all here, let someone bring it in." Feng Shi said.

"Yes, old lady."

Hong Kao opened the cloth curtain, and a nanny in her forties walked in. After paying several salutes to Feng Shi, she handed a sachet to Lian Shi, and then left.

Lian Shi opened the sachet and looked around, suddenly his face changed drastically, "Auntie, sister-in-law, Zhuzhu, I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable, I will go back to rest first without waiting for the son to come back."

Although the Hou Mansion did not have a separate family, the Lian family was always the member of the third house. If she hadn't been one of the witnesses, the Feng family and the Jiang family would absolutely not want her to know what happened to the eldest house.

Now that she offered to leave on her own initiative, the two of them couldn't wish for it. Just as they were about to agree, they suddenly heard Lu Xinyan say with a half-smile: "Auntie Three, this sachet contains a consecrated talisman, but you said as soon as you received it." Uncomfortable, could it be that there is something wrong with the sachet? Or is it that the third cousin is possessed by an evil spirit, and she feels uncomfortable when she sees this righteous thing?"

"In broad daylight, why are you so worried about talking about being evil or not in Mother's room? Bah, I get goosebumps!" Jiang spat directly.

Feng frowned, she knew that Lu Xinyan was not a random person, so she looked at Lian without saying a word.

Lian smiled and said: "Zhuzhu, don't scare my aunt and sister-in-law. You know that I am not in good health these days. I have been very uncomfortable since just now, but I have been holding on until now. .”

"Since you have held on for so long, let's hold on for a while longer! After all, the third cousin is one of the important witnesses!" Lu Xinyan said lightly: "If the third cousin really can't hold on anymore, just tell me, Bai Zhi is here Waiting outside, you can come in at any time and get a few needles for Third Biao Aunt, to ensure that the needles will cure the disease."

Now even the Jiang family frowned. It was obvious that Lu Xinyan was at the end of her rope just now, and she could give her a fatal blow as soon as Yu'er arrived. Why did she become so nonchalant again in the blink of an eye?

Could it be that there is something hidden in the middle?
Lian showed a pitiful expression, "Auntie, my niece and daughter-in-law are really uncomfortable, please ask my auntie to agree with my niece-in-law..."

"If you're really uncomfortable, let Bai Zhi come in and take a look for you. Bai Zhi's medical skills are much better than those of doctors outside." Feng said.

Since Zhuzhu insisted on her staying, there must be a reason for her to stay.

Lian had no choice but to sit down, "The niece and daughter-in-law just bear with it."

Lian Shi, who was forced to stay, completely lost the joy and relaxation that he couldn't restrain before, and was restless and suffering.

Lu Xinyan played with her fingers silently, without sweeping her eyebrows again.

After an unknown amount of time, Nanny Sun's voice finally sounded outside, "Old madam, madam, third madam, young madam, the eldest son is back."

In fact, it was only a quarter of an hour, but for the three people in this room except Lu Xinyan, they lived like years, so it felt like a long time.

When Feng Shi and Jiang Shi heard this, they were so happy that they quickly stood up, "Hurry up, bring it in!"

Lian's complexion turned pale, his fingers were twisted together, trembling slightly.

The red silk was closing the curtains, Nanny Sun and another maid helped the pale and emaciated Miyata Yu to walk in.

Miyata Yu was already thin, but now he looked like he could be blown away by a gust of wind!
Feng was so startled that he fell back to Luo Hantao, Jiang couldn't believe it at first, and then howled loudly, "Yu'er, what...what's going on? Who made you like this?"

Before Miyata Yu could speak, Jiang cursed loudly, "Is it Lu Xinyan? Is she the one who caused this? What a vicious bitch! Yu'er, don't be afraid, mother and grandmother will make decisions for you ! This time, mother is desperate, and she insists on getting this vicious woman out of the house!"

"Mother~" Miyata Yu called out weakly, Jiang's tears poured down, he reached out his hand to touch him, but was afraid of hurting him.

"Help Yu'er to lie down here with me first." Feng Shi ordered while enduring her discomfort.

"That's right, help the prince to lie down first." Jiang shi wiped away tears again and again, "I'm sorry Yu'er, my mother feels really sad to see you like this..."

Thinking about the day he went out, even though he hung from a tree all night, he was still very energetic, and now he is so weak that he can't even speak, how can Jiang not feel uncomfortable?
"Thank you...Grandmother." Miyata Yu, who was injured, lost that self-righteous look, and looked much more pleasing to Lu Xinyan, "Mother, I'm fine, the doctor said, I'll recover after a while. "

After Jiang nodded with tears in her eyes, she looked at Lu Xinyan with angry eyes, "Lu Xinyan, you hurt Yu'er like this for a lowly maid beside you, what else do you have to say?"

Lu Xinyan shrugged, "If the prince falls into my hands, I will indeed beat him to death in order to vent my anger on my maid! But this time, I did not do it!"

Jiang snorted angrily: "Yu'er, tell me! With grandmother and mother here, don't be afraid if you have anything to say!"

"Mother, on September [-]th, not long after I left Yicuilou, I was knocked out from behind. When I woke up last night, I was in the mansion of the prince of the Duke of Zhen next door. The prince said that I was stabbed in the chest. Sword, the man wanted to stab me a few more times, but it happened that Prince Xiao passed by and rescued me from the assassin. In order to catch the assassin, Prince Xiao temporarily hid me in Shizi Mansion, saying that he would send me back when he caught the assassin " Miyata Yu took a few breaths, "Just now he asked me to come back, he must have caught the assassin."

After Lu Xinyan transported Miyata Yu to Shizi's Mansion last night, she asked Bai Zhi to give him an injection, and Miyata Yu woke up after a while.

As for the fact that Lu Xinyan rescued Gong Tianyu and handed it to Xiao Yichen to hide, because Lu Xinyan is the wife of the prince of the Guangping Marquis, if she had any private contact with Xiao Yichen, it would inevitably be a scandal, especially Jiang's, so the two discussed this matter. Simply let Xiao Yichen take the responsibility.

"Dang the chest... stabbed with a sword?" Jiang almost fainted.

The bandages on Miyata Yu's chest were changed by Doctor Qin today, and he couldn't tell by wearing an outer shirt. Jiang Shi began to see Miyata Yu's footsteps sloppy and pale, and thought it was because Lu Xinyan locked him up and starved for a few days, but he didn't expect it to be Was stabbed with a sword.

She jumped up angrily and rushed towards Lu Xinyan, almost wanting to tear Lu Xinyan apart in a frantic look, "You bitch! I'm going to fight you! Yes, I want your dowry, I'm just greedy for your money, but When did I want to take your life!? But what about you, you are so vicious, I, Yuer, just bullied your maid, and did nothing to her, and you want his life?! If not Xiao Shizi, I, Yuer, is dead on the street right now! I will die with you now!"

Feng stroked his forehead and yelled, "Nonsense! Stop it! What are you doing!?"

Grandma Sun Hongxiao and the maid who helped Miyata Yu in together quickly grabbed the hysterical Jiang Shi.

"Just now Yu'er said that Shizi Xiao asked him to come back. Maybe the assassin was caught. I will send someone to find Shizi Xiao and ask him for someone!" "The murderer behind this scene, no matter who it is, will never be forgiven!"

The meaning in these words shows that if it is really Lu Xinyan, she will never take sides this time!
After Jiang Shi heard this, she calmed down, and stared at Lu Xinyan viciously with a pair of fierce eyes like a she-wolf guarding her cubs.

Lian's face on the side was pale as if frightened, the kit in his hand was deformed, and he asked tremblingly, "Assassin... Has the assassin really been caught?"

"According to the son, he must have been caught." Lu Xinyan glanced at Lian Shi with a half-smile, and said to Feng Shi: "Grandmother, hurry up and send someone there, so we can find out the truth and return Zhuzhu's innocence. "

Feng said: "Aying, you go there yourself!"

"Yes, old lady." Nanny Sun lifted the curtain and left.

Lian's complexion turned paler, and his breathing quickened, "Auntie, that assassin must have been born extremely vicious, but my daughter-in-law is timid, and now her body is weak, afraid of having nightmares, my niece and daughter-in-law want to leave first... "

"Aunt Third Cousin, what's the hurry? If you're afraid that the assassin will scare you, you can cover your eyes with a handkerchief later." Lu Xinyan said leisurely: "If you get too scared, I'll let Qingtong stand in front of you. , all the young men in this mansion are not her opponents together, let alone an assassin? Besides, Xiao Shizi acted properly, and he will definitely tie the assassin tightly and send someone to follow him to ensure that no accidents will happen , so Aunt Sanbiao, your worries are a little overdone."

Lian forced a smile, "Having said that, I'm not afraid of [-], just in case. I still have master Jian'er Qian'er to take care of. There can't be any accidents in this body."

"The reason why Ma'am believes that I have killed the eldest son is the testimony of the third cousin. Now the real culprit is coming. If the third cousin is gone, how can I clear my grievances? Since the third cousin You are so worried, how about this, I will let Qingtong Baizhi wait by your side!"

After Lu Xinyan finished speaking, without waiting for Lian's reaction, she shouted through the curtain: "Qingtong, Bai Zhi, come in."

The two of them were outside the curtain, and when they heard the call, they immediately lifted the curtain and came in, "Qingtong (Bai Zhi) has seen the old lady, madam, third lady! Miss, what are your orders?"

Feng looked at the two maids, neither humble nor overbearing, neither flustered nor flustered, one heroic, one refined, each with their own charm, couldn't help admiring.

Only a person like Zhuzhu can be equipped with such a maidservant who is more majestic than ordinary girls!

Lu Xinyan said: "The assassin who will assassinate the prince will be sent soon. The third cousin is not in good health and is timid. She is afraid of shocking her. You are by her side to protect her!"

"Yes, miss!"

The two walked over, one on the left and the other on the right, and stood beside Lian, as if protecting and watching.

Lian's hand holding the sachet suddenly didn't know where to put it.

As soon as the room fell silent, she heard Grandma Sun say, "Old lady..."

"But the assassin brought it? Come in!" Jiang interrupted impatiently, clenching her teeth, wishing she could see the murderer who almost killed Miyata Yu immediately!
Feng Shi was also very anxious, he didn't care about Jiang Shi's rudeness, and said, "Come in."

The navy blue curtain was lifted, and a crescent-colored figure floated in, shining brightly, illuminating the entire room.

The handsome and profound face, the tall and straight figure, and the cool and noble demeanor made all the female relatives in the room dumbfounded, including Lu Xinyan.

She was so surprised that her red lips opened slightly, and she looked at the man in the middle of the room in disbelief, how could he come in person?When he said it last night, he didn't say he was coming!
Xiao Yichen glanced out of the corner of his eyes, and slightly invisibly twitched the corners of his lips, cupped his hands and said, "Xiao has met Mrs. Gong, Mrs. Gong, Mrs. Gong, and Mrs. Gong... Young Mrs."

I don't know if it was Lu Xinyan's illusion, but when this man said a few words about Madam Gong, the tone of his voice was quite different from before.

When I called her Mrs. Gong Shao or Miss Lu alone before, I didn't feel it, but now I compare it, the gap is revealed.

But that feeling is hard to describe, it seems to be a little gentler, and it's like gritting your teeth and shouting...

"Zhuzhu, I've met Duke Xiao Shizi soon." The Feng family on the side said.

It was only then that Lu Xinyan realized that she had lost her mind just now, and she quickly stood up, "I met Xiao Shizi."

Jiang shi snorted, "Shameful thing."

Someone said kindly: "Mrs. Gong must have been frightened by the assassin, so you don't have to be polite."

Yes, I was scared, but it wasn't the assassin, it was you!Lu Xinyan made a face at him when no one was paying attention, but his eyes just happened to look over and fell right into his eyes, those glazed eyes seemed to be filled with a smile, and she turned away quickly.

That natural and smooth movement, it seems that the glance just now was just unintentional.

Lu Xinyan's face suddenly became hot. The scene just now felt like two young couples who had made an appointment in private. They were flirting with each other in front of their ignorant elders. They were both excited and excited. Only the parties involved would know the feeling.

Bah, what are you thinking about?What little lovers, little enemies are almost the same!Lu Xinyan looked at Xiao Yichen with a bit of anger, that person had returned to his calm and detached appearance, the previous glance and the smile in his eyes were like flowers in the mirror of water.

Lu Xinyan let out a few breaths, and let out the invisible suffocation in her chest.

The assassin came in behind Xiao Yichen, as Lu Xinyan said, they were tied firmly with a rope, and the other end of the rope was in the hands of the little monkey.

Xiao Yichen cupped his hands and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, everyone must have known about the assassination of Gong Shizi by this assassin, so I won't repeat the matter after Xiaomou. Before coming, Xiaomou had already tortured this assassin. Ladies, if you have anything to say, please accept it." ask him."

Jiang Shi was the first to rush forward, eyes red, "Did you hurt my Yu'er? What enmity does he have with you? Why did you kill him?"

If it wasn't for Xiao Yichen's presence, if Jiang Shi had a sliver of reason, his hands would have turned into sharp knives and scratched the assassin's face.

The assassin lowered his head, "I have no enmity or grudge with Gong Shizi, and we have never met each other. I just take money and do things."

"Who is it? Who paid you to kill my Yu'er? Is it Lu Xinyan?" Jiang yelled.

"No, it's Lianfu Lianlian, Master Lian."

"Lian Fu..." Jiang's eyes widened, almost choking on his own saliva, "Master Lian Lian?"

As she spoke, she couldn't help looking at Lian Shi.

"Yes, it's Master Lian. He gave me 100 taels of silver and let me take the life of the son of Gong Tianyu of the Guangping Marquis Mansion." Then put the blame on Mrs. Gong Shao!But the last sentence, the assassin who had already received the death penalty, did not dare to say it at all.

"You are talking nonsense! How could my elder brother want to kill the crown prince? He has no grievances with him, why did he want to kill him?" Lian Shi's pale face became even whiter than paper, she screamed loudly.

"That's right, how could Master Lian harm Yu'er?" Jiang Shi murmured before recovering from the shocking news.

The assassin said: "Our killers have the rules of killers, don't ask the reason, and only take money to do things!"

"Impossible!" Lian Shi hissed, "Someone must have pretended to be my eldest brother and asked you to kill the prince! In this way, the real murderer can clear himself of suspicion!"

After Lian finished speaking, he knelt on the ground with an excited expression, facing Feng, "Auntie, sister-in-law, you must not be deceived, let my elder brother be wronged, and let the real murderer go unpunished!"

Before Feng could make a statement, the little monkey pulled the rope in his hand, and the assassin said: "Master Lian contacted me personally, and he didn't deliberately hide his identity! We are killers, in order to prevent the buyer If you turn your face and deny it, you will definitely investigate it secretly first, so as not to make a loss-making business!"

Lian collapsed to the ground all of a sudden, this big brother!At that time, I told him so clearly in the letter, let him act in a more concealed way, and don't let others know!How do you know he...

"I don't believe it, my eldest brother has no reason to kill the prince!" Lian insisted on this point, which is why Feng and Jiang kept silent.

Although the assassin speaks with certainty, why?Miyata Yu and Lian Jia have never had any contact, and they don't see each other even once a year. How could there be such a deep hatred?

"Auntie, sister-in-law, my eldest brother has been wronged, please investigate clearly!" Lian made a weeping appearance of being wronged, and covered his face with his hands, but his subordinates' eyes rolled away, "There is something I have hidden. It's been in my heart for a long time, but I have never dared to say it, and now, in order to return my elder brother's innocence, I have to say it."

She covered her face and pointed her fingers at Xiao Yichen and Lu Xinyan, "Auntie, sister-in-law, Xiao Shizi first went into the water to save Zhuzhu in Wuyang Hou Mansion regardless of his life, and then helped Zhuzhu in the polo field of Lanying Villa, At night, it was rumored that the two of them had a private meeting in the Stone Forest, causing Princess Changping to lead someone to arrest him. Because of this, Yu'er fell into the cave and hurt her forehead! And Zhuzhu is the only person in this mansion who has enmity with the prince! So I have to suspect that it was Shizi Xiao and Zhuzhu who joined forces to kill Shizi and wanted to push it on my elder brother! With Xiao Shizi's ability, it is easy to find someone to pretend to be my elder brother, deliberately make the assassin think it is my elder brother, and then catch him The assassin came to frame my elder brother!"

Feng's and Jiang's couldn't help but Qi Qi looked at Xiao Yichen, and circled back and forth between him and Lu Xinyan.

Xiao Yichen's expression remained calm, he turned a deaf ear to Lian's accusations, his calm and noble demeanor made Feng's and Jiang's believe him three points first.

The son of the Duke of Zhen, the nephew of Concubine Xiao, the cousin of the third prince, the young talent favored by the emperor, would he fall in love with a married woman?
It doesn't look like it at all!
