The bright sunlight shines on the bluestone road through the mottled leaves, creating warm halos. Murong Xue is bathed in the golden halo, holding a small altar of viburnum wine in her hand, and Shi Shi walks forward without haste. .
"Murongxue!" A familiar angry voice came, and Murongxue looked back, only to see Mrs. Du and a middle-aged man in his thirties walking over angrily, surrounded by dozens of maidservants behind them, Mammy.
She also knew the middle-aged man, he was Du's natal nephew, Du Chengjiang's father, Du Yi, who is currently the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and is a fourth-rank official!
Murong Xue sneered, she came quite quickly, probably the moment she stepped into the Marquis Mansion, Mrs. Du got the news, and brought a lot of servants to stop her: "Step-grandmother, Du Shaoqing, you are making such a big battle, Is it a joint trial in three courts, or is it a questioning by the teacher?"
"Murong Xue, don't interrupt, Cheng Jiang sued you for seriously injuring him, is there such a thing?" Du Shi asked harshly.
Murong Xue raised her eyebrows slightly, and the interrogation was about to start, she didn't say a single word of nonsense, she was so straightforward and eager to wait, she just cooperated: "It was he who teased me, so I took the initiative to teach him..."
"Nonsense, Chengyi is your cousin, how could he tease you!" Shi Du interrupted her sharply, completely disbelieving her explanation.
"You watched Du Chengjiang grow up. It's not like you don't know about his lustful Dexing. Isn't that what he's used to doing when seeing beauties come forward to tease you?" Murong Xue looked at her with a smile that was not a smile. It's all sarcasm.
Du Shi choked, and stared carefully at Murong Xue, only to see that her black hair was like a waterfall, her eyebrows were picturesque, and her bright little face was so beautiful that she couldn't help but look at her, and she even talked about Du Chengjiang who likes women: " Even if Chengjiang teases you, you can just teach him a little lesson, how can you hit him so hard? Do you know that Chengyi will be kicked into a disability by you... "
"Don't worry, no matter what, Du Chengjiang has a little relationship with me, and I won't ruthlessly kill him to cripple him. It will only make him remember this incident deeply, and he will never dare to tease me carelessly again. "
Du Chengjiang is the eldest grandson of the Du family, if he is kicked disabled, the Du family will definitely not let it go, she is not afraid of the conspiracy of the Du family, but she has no power now, and she has no parents to protect her, and the Du family is waiting to catch her. , ready to put her to death, of course she can't let them do so!
Looking at Murong Xueyun's indifferent appearance, Du Yi's face was gloomy, and he snorted softly: "I hurt someone seriously, I can't help thinking about it, I don't kowtow to admit my mistake, but I argue with forceful words, it's really uneducated..."
"Shut up, it's not up to you to comment on whether I'm educated or not." Murong Xue interrupted him, and looked at him coldly: "On the contrary, Du Shaoqing, have you ever heard of 'sons don't teach, fathers and sons do' Du Chengjiang will become what he is today, all because of your connivance, you should be glad that the person he molested was me, not the royal princess, otherwise, he would have become a eunuch now, or lay half dead in the prison of the Ministry of punishment it's..."
Du Yi choked: "You..."
"You are incompetent and can't discipline your own son. I will take care of it for you, let him learn a lesson, and avoid trouble. It's okay if you don't appreciate it, but you still mock me..." Murong Xue didn't say anything next, contemptuously He looked Du Yi up and down, turned his face away, and his contempt was beyond words.
"Okay, okay!" Du Yi laughed back in anger, and said three good words in a row, his eyes were burning with rage: "You are really eloquent, you are so eloquent, and your ability to turn right and wrong into black and white is unparalleled in the world..."
"I'm just telling the truth, where is right and wrong wrong?" Murong Xue squinted at him, her eyes full of innocence: "It's not surprising that Du Shaoqing doesn't listen to me, after all, honest words are hard to hear, and the truth is hard to hear. In this world, people are open-minded and sensible." There are a minority of people, and most people are still dirty-minded, unreasonable!"
Du Yi's face was livid. She was mocking herself for being narrow-minded and bullying others: "Murong Xue, I am your uncle, your elder. Who taught you to talk to elders like this? Don't you know how to respect the old and love the young?" She kept Suppressing him, even mocking and sarcasm, really pissed him off! The ancient saying, only women and villains are difficult to raise, is really right.
"Respect the old and love the young?" Murong Xue raised her eyebrows and looked at Du Yi, her eyes and eyebrows were full of mockery: "Du Shaoqing, respect is mutual, you don't love the young, and you still want me to respect the old? What a fantasy!"
"You..." Du Yi stared at Murong Xue, unable to speak out angrily, a fishy sweetness suddenly surged in his throat, he couldn't hold it back, and spit out a mouthful of blood with a puff.
"Ah Yi, what's the matter with you? Come on, come on..." Mrs. Du called out in panic. The scene instantly became chaotic.
Standing outside the circle, Murong Xue looked at Du Yi, who was pale, and raised her eyebrows lightly: "Just a few words, he vomited blood out of anger, his concentration is really bad, I really don't understand how he got into this position." It belongs to the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple who is the fourth grade.
"Step-grandmother, Du Shaoqing, take your time, I'll go back to Luoxue Pavilion first!" Murong Xue dropped these words lightly, turned around with a smile, and walked towards Luoxue Pavilion unhurriedly: Du Yiqi vomited blood , Mrs. Du was busy taking care of him and comforting him, she must not be in the mood to teach herself a lesson, her ears can be quiet now.
Turning the corner, the courtyard gate of Luoxue Pavilion came into view, and Murong Xue raised her voice to order: "Hongxiu, come out and help me get Jiaoweiqin, Anxiang, and go to the kitchen to prepare some side dishes..."
From noon to now, she has been busy dealing with all kinds of ghosts and monsters, and she hasn't had lunch yet. A small cup of Qionghua wine should be very good with a few side dishes!
"Sister... Sister..." A voice of surprise came to his ears, and Murong Ye hurriedly ran out of Luoxue Pavilion. His brocade robe was a bit messy, his hair crown was half crooked, and his black jade-like pupils It was stained with streaks of red blood, and there was also a thick blue shadow under the eyelids.
Seeing Murong Xue, his eyes sparkled, he ran up to her, carefully looked at her over and over again, and confirmed that she was intact, he let out a long sigh of relief, and his joy was beyond words: "It's great that you are fine!"
Murong Xue smiled unnaturally, she fell asleep after taking the lotus seeds, and didn't even have time to say hello to Murong Ye: "You haven't slept all night."
"You disappeared, why did I fall asleep..." Murong Ye waved his hands disapprovingly, then suddenly thought of something, lowered his voice and said, "Sister, did you take fire lotus seeds last night?"
Murong Xue nodded: "I have taken it." If the fire lotus seeds hadn't been used, she would have died from the poison a long time ago!
"Then why did you come back so early?" Murong Ye was full of surprise: "When you got poisoned before, after taking fire lotus seeds, you had to sleep for at least twelve hours..."
Murong Xue was stunned, the original owner was tortured to death every time the poison occurred, and after waking up, she didn't pay much attention to the time, thinking about it carefully, she would indeed fall asleep for more than ten hours.
And she took the fire lotus seeds at Zishi (23:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.) last night, and woke up at the end of Chenshi (7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.) in the morning, and only fell asleep for four hours. What's going on
A crimson robe floated by the corner of her eyes, Murong Xue suddenly came back to her senses, looked up and saw a familiar handsome face, her eyes froze suddenly: "Ye Yichen, why are you here?"
