After Shen Yiyao listened to it, she was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth.
She couldn't help thinking of the scene when she first met Yan Ting a long, long time ago...
That year, under the magnolia tree, she was frightened and turned around, and saw a handsome man who looked like a god.
He is tall and tall, with sharp and angular facial features like carvings, deep eyes, high nose bridge, and a hint of elegance in his heroic appearance.
As if feeling scared to her, he smiled apologetically.
For a moment, she seemed to smell the smell of flowers.
Nie Yuan is from this moment.
This scene had appeared in Shen Yiyao's dreams countless times, and only when he woke up did he realize that everything was a joke.
The so-called deep hatred of love, how dreamy and beautiful it was in the beginning. After waking up from the dream, the blow was so heavy. When all the love, admiration, and sweetness have all turned into a joke, hearing this kind of thing at this time, except for adding a disgusting feeling that almost drowns the whole person from the bottom of my heart, there is nothing else.
Shen Yiyao did not notice that her whole body trembled slightly, which was enough to prove the degree of her surprise at this time.
It's been a long, long time-
"Is this true?"
Yan Yan nodded and looked at her a little worriedly.
Shen Yiyao took a deep breath and calmed down.
"You don't care about this matter, this time my mother must make peace with him."
Seeing Shen Yiyao's ugly face, Yan Yan couldn't help but regret that she didn't listen to Luo Huaiyuan's words, and she shouldn't have said this on a whim.
This vague worry continued until she left Weiyuan Hou's Mansion and returned to the Fourth Prince's Mansion. After seeing Luo Huaiyuan, she couldn't help but mention it to him.
"Aren't your mother-in-law sad?"
Yan Yan was not in the mansion, and Luo Huaiyuan also went out. After staying in the mansion for so long, although everything was controlled by remote control, there were still some things that needed to be dealt with. Not long after Yan Yan returned to the mansion, Luo Huaiyuan also came back. The first thing he did when he came back was to take a shower and change clothes, and then went to sit in front of Yan Yan.
Yan Yan shook her head, "But mother's face is not good."
"Forget it, sooner or later, you need to know. The sooner you know, the sooner you will be freed." Luo Huaiyuan picked up a cup of tea and poured it, motioning for Yimeng to give him another cup. After Yimeng left, he whispered, "But I I think this is a bit difficult, and there will be no divorce with my mother-in-law."
Yan Yan felt the same way.
"If I say, it's better to solve such a scourge early." Luo Huaiyuan couldn't help but look at Yan Yan's expression when he said this.
Yan Yan pursed her lips and said nothing.
At this time, the two of them didn't know, and at this time, another major event happened in Weiyuan Hou's mansion.
**
Shen Yiyao wore a small white satin jacket with engraved gold and hundreds of flowers, and a pleated skirt with scattered flowers and mist. The cloud bun is slanted, and a sapphire hairpin with many flowers is inserted on it. This hairpin glowed with a dim and inexplicable light under the light, which made Shen Yiyao's whole person unbelievably beautiful, like a mysterious girl in the Nine Heavens.
Yan Ting was in a trance and seemed to see Shen Yiyao who was still a girl.
At that time, she was well-informed, simple and brilliant. She would hold back her eyes and shed tears because of little things, and her cheeks would be flushed and shy because of his chuckle...
But I don't know when it has changed, everything has changed, why did it change
Yan Ting felt that his brain was extremely stiff, and once he recalled the past, he felt dull pain. The beautiful figure in front of him zoomed in and out, zoomed in and out, and the picture shook so much that he felt dizzy and almost wanted to vomit, and he heard his dry voice sound.
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
The other party said another word.
He suddenly felt a large blazing flame spread from the bottom of his heart, burning him almost to pieces. He didn't know that at this time, his face was hideous, the blue veins on his temples were exposed, and his eyes were blood red, as if they were about to protrude.
"What do you know? You don't know anything! You actually despise me, do you know who is hurting me for what I'm doing now? It's all because of you, it's all because of your surname Shen, you are high above, you look down on me, you If you don't step me into the mud one by one, you will not be reconciled..."
His face was like a ghost, his eyes were burning red, and he approached step by step.
Yan Ting's appearance frightened Shen Yiyao, and she couldn't help but back away, until she slammed into the bed post before she came back to her senses.
"What are you doing, stay away from me!"
Shen Yiyao waved her hands in horror, seeing him continue to approach her, she couldn't help pushing him with her hands. Yan Ting grabbed her hands and pressed her face. The two were so close that they could almost feel each other's breath.
Shen Yiyao smelled the alcohol, and Yan Ting smelled a sweet fragrance that penetrated into his heart. He couldn't help but force her into his arms, took a breath of intoxication, buried his face in her hair, and an urgent urge surged up.
This kind of feeling, this kind of feeling a man has towards a woman, he hasn't had for a long time. Thinking about this, a violent rage came to my heart. Whoever harmed him like this now, it's all of them, all of the people from the Shen family...
Shen Yiyao struggled hard in his arms, Yan Ting turned a deaf ear, and his eyes were stunned. He didn't react until the other party shouted at her, covering her mouth with one hand and tearing her clothes with the other.
"What are you calling, who dares to come in? You are my wife, and you should serve me!"
Saying that, Yan Ting pushed her down on the bed behind him.
Shen Yiyao is now extremely regretful, regrets that she underestimated the shamelessness of the other party, and regrets why she deliberately chose to talk about this in the bedroom in order to save face for each other, and even sent out the head of the maid next to her.
But how could such a thing be talked to in front of people? If people knew about it, she wouldn't care. How Ah Mo would meet people in the future...
Shen Yiyao hated herself for being weak and powerless at this time, why didn't she practice martial arts in the first place, and her father also wanted to teach her when she was a child. But she didn't like it, and neither did her mother, so she never mentioned it again. If she had martial arts, she wouldn't face such a dilemma at this time...
God, who will save her...
As long as Shen Yiyao thought about Yan Ting touching her with her own body, she felt nauseated for a while. She could feel the clothes detaching from her body one by one, and a sense of despair filled her heart...
In vain, when she felt light on her body, she heard a bang and someone fell to the ground, and she hurriedly sat up with her clothes in her arms.
"Mother Hui-"
Madam Hui had no time to respond to her at this time. After Yan Ting was dropped, a carp stood up and attacked Madam Hui. Yan Ting looked like a madman, and he only attacked and not defended. Madam Hui had some scruples, and for a while he made him retreat again and again.
But in the end, she hit the stone with an egg, and Madam Hui looked at the empty door, and a volley side kick smashed Yan Ting out.
In fact, all this happened very fast, only between the electric light and flint.
Hearing that there was something wrong inside, Cui Qiao and Cui Ping, who went to find Hui Niang, rushed in, just to see Hou Ye hit the wall and fell. Going to see the lady again, she was described as a mess, and her clothes were not covering her body. Cui Qiao exclaimed, "Oh my god," and hurried over to get the clothes and put them on with Shen Yiyao.
Yan Ting collapsed to the ground, and after a while, he crawled up in embarrassment, a bloodstain dripping from the corner of his mouth.
Shen Yiyao put on her clothes and got out of bed, her face flushed, both ashamed and annoyed: "Yan Ting, I've settled with you, I'll give you five days to think about it, otherwise I'll go and invite my father to come. !"
Yan Ting wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, glanced at Shen Yiyao like a wolf, and turned to leave.
At this moment, Shen Yiyao started to cry.
She was shaking all over, her arms and legs were shaking. Seeing this, Cui Qiao quickly helped her to the couch and covered her with a quilt. Cuiping went to pour two grandma soup, one was stuffed under her feet, and the other was held by her. I went to cook red dates and almond tea, and let her drink a bowl of it.
It took a long time for Shen Yiyao to calm down: "Mother Hui, it's fortunate that you came in time."
Madam Hui said: "Madam, what's wrong, the task that the girl gave me before she left was to protect the madam and the young master. Thanks to Cui Qiao, they saw that something was wrong, so they called me."
"It's all my fault for being blind, and it's also my fault for underestimating the shamelessness of this beast!" Shen Yiyao wept silently.
Cui Qiao and Cui Ping stood aside with their heads down, not daring to answer.
Madam Hui thought for a while and said, "Madam, are you going to tell the girl?"
Shen Yiyao wiped away her tears and shook her head: "I still can't, I can't always let my child worry about my mother-in-law, anyway, I've settled with him this time, and if he doesn't reply after five days, I'll go back to my mother's house. I invited my father and brother to come."
Madam Hui nodded and said no more.
***
Yan Ting rode his horse and ran all the way out of the house.
The night was as cold as water, and there was no moon.
Yan Ting didn't know why he wanted to come out. He only knew that he wanted to get out of there, and he didn't know where he went until he reached the door of the private house.
The gatekeeper seemed to have heard the movement and came out to greet him.
"Master Yan."
After the man saluted, he went to lead his horse, but he didn't notice Yan Ting's stunned expression.
Yan Ting thought about it, and didn't want to go back. He simply stayed here for one night and went directly to the value tomorrow. Xu Xiangrong wouldn't come to his private house when he had nothing to do. Yan Ting knew that he was not there at this time, so he was very relieved.
There are very few servants in the private house, and if you don't call them out, they won't appear in places where they shouldn't be. The housekeeper who led Yan Ting asked if he needed to call someone to serve, but he waved his hand and refused. Walking into a room, he didn't even light up the lights, so he walked to the bed and lay down on it.
He fell asleep in a daze, and woke up suddenly in the middle of the night to find that there was light in the room.
A familiar face appeared in front of him, and Yan Ting was shocked.
"How did you come?"
Xu Xiangrong is dressed in a royal blue embroidered silver-patterned brocade robe, with a black jade crown on his head and a gold and jade belt of the same color around his waist, which is low-key and luxurious. This man has nothing to do with Junmei, this man has nothing to do with Junmei, but he has an unusual bearing, graceful with calmness, and reserved with extravagance.
I saw him smiled and said, "The housekeeper told you that you are here, but I just didn't stop, so I came to have a look."
After a pause, he reached out and wiped the corner of Yan Ting's mouth, "What? Who hurt you?"
He looked at the blood stains on his fingers with a calm expression, as if nothing had happened.
Yan Ting was stunned for a moment and turned his face away: "It's okay."
Xu Xiangrong didn't ask any more, took off his shirt, and got on the couch.
A faint scent of sandalwood permeated the surroundings, and strands of strands burrowed into Yan Ting's nose. This is Xu Xiangrong's usual incense, which is more expensive than gold.
He got on the couch, leaned over, and wrapped an arm around Yan Ting's waist. Yan Ting's body froze, and when he saw that he had no other movements, he relaxed.
Silent all night.
"People are gone?"
Xu Xiangrong tapped the table with his slender fingers and asked.
The butler nodded.
"How about the things you were asked to check?"
"Because the time is too tight, I haven't found out the details. I only know that Mrs. Yan seems to be arguing about making up with Mr. Yan. Before coming here last night, Mr. Yan came out of Mrs. Yan. It seems that he was injured after he came out."
Xu Xiangrong showed a meaningful smile, "Why, then Shen Yiyao is still a tiger father without a dog? Shouldn't she be a hero among women like her daughter?"
His tone was indifferent, with a hint of sarcasm.
The housekeeper shook his head, "If you go back to the eldest son, the only daughter of the Shen family, Shen Yiyao, has been quiet since she was a child. No matter what aspect she looks at, she doesn't have any skills in martial arts."
Xu Xiangrong knocked on the table and waved to let people back off.
The commotion in Jinseyuan last night did not disturb the rest of the house.
Jinseyuan also issued a password ban, so the boat crossed the water without a trace, as if nothing had happened.
Yan Ru has been married into the Liang family for a long time, but there has been no movement in her stomach. Yan Ru's mother-in-law was not in a hurry, but Xue's was as anxious as adding fuel to the fire. Every day, he burns incense, worships Buddha, and asks about all kinds of secret recipes for childbirth.
No, I heard that there is a goddess temple in the suburbs of Beijing that is very effective, and I thought about taking Shen Yiyao to worship together, and praying for blessings for the two girls who were married.
Shen Yiyao was worried about the matter of separation, and she didn't want to go when she saw Xue's coming to look for her to go out for incense. Unexpectedly, I couldn't resist Xue's persuasion. Xue's words were indeed reasonable. My mother-in-law was not in a hurry, but my mother couldn't be in a hurry. What if the mother-in-law always sees that her daughter-in-law is not moving and stuffs people into her son-in-law's room
Shen Yiyao thought that her daughter and son-in-law planned to have children later, and she couldn't help feeling that the two juniors were a little reckless. Before His Majesty's choice of concubine for the fourth prince, there was already a commotion. If A Yan was always silent, the palace would not have more excuses to enter the palace.
She decided that she must take the time to mention this matter to her daughter another day. By the way, this time, she should put a name on the goddess who sent her son in advance, and bless A Yan's son well in the future.
The day to go out and incense is set for tomorrow, and Xue Shi will leave after that.
The next day, the two of them left the house in a car early in the morning.
Shen Yiyao and Mrs. Xue had a car, and a few of them followed the maidservants who served in a car. They also brought a number of family members and guards, and a mighty group of people went out of the city.
After the brigade walked past, a figure on the corner of the street disappeared in a flash.
This Temple of Sending Children is said to be in the suburbs of Beijing, but it has actually been outside the scope of the suburbs of Beijing.
It was originally a small temple in several surrounding towns, but it caught fire at some point. The matter of childbirth has always been the top priority for women, because it is very effective, and it has been passed on from ten to ten, and it has also spread among the women's circles in Beijing. Therefore, many noble ladies from Beijing will come here to worship and send their children. Niangniang, by the way, ask for a child-delivery talisman to go back.
It is said that the lottery in the temple is very spiritual. If you can draw a lottery, and obtain a child-giving talisman drawn by a Taoist priest in the temple, and close the talisman to the person who asks for the child, you will be able to win a man in one fell swoop.
It was almost noon when Shen Yiyao and his party arrived at the Concubine Empress Temple.
Therefore, there is a lot of incense in the place, and there is also a tea shop nearby. The group first found a place to rest and prepared to have lunch before going to the temple to burn incense.
After a short pause, the group set off again.
The process went very smoothly, both Xue Shi and Shen Yiyao drew one for the sign. Seeing that the two were gorgeously dressed and knowing that they were not ordinary people, the Taoist priests in the temple took the initiative to offer two gift-giving talismans. The Xue family was in a very good mood and added fifty taels of silver as offerings, and Shen Yiyao also added fifty taels. After that, they sat in the temple for a while and drank a cup of tea, before the two of them left with others.
In fact, the ladies in Beijing generally have temples dedicated to them, and that kind of big temple is naturally not comparable to the grass-stage team here. There are reception monks on all walks, and vegetarian meals are also available. But what you can ask God is to do what you want, you can only enter and follow the customs.
After so much tossing, on the way back, the spirit of the two was a little sluggish. As I was falling asleep, I suddenly felt the carriage stop with a violent jolt, and there was a scream and the neighing sound of the horse falling to the ground.
In just a moment, screams were heard everywhere, and from time to time there was a sound of arrows breaking through the air.
For a while, the cries, shouts, and screams were endless, as if they had entered an endless hell overnight.
Shen Yiyao was accompanied by guards when she went out on this trip, and they were all her personal guards. Not many people, but about ten. Halfway through the trip, there was a sudden rain of arrows in the sky, not to mention the driver who was driving the car, and these guards were also a little confused. Fortunately, these people's reactions are also sensitive, and they hurriedly resisted when the situation was wrong.
It's a pity that the other party's thoughts and calculations are very sinister. The terrain here is unique, it is in a curve, and the front three sides are all vegetation and forests. A rain of arrows shot over, there was no way to avoid it, there was no way to escape. Several servants and even the coachman fell to the ground screaming with arrows, and the guards in front of Shen Yiyao's carriage were also injured.
The arrow rain is too dense, even if these people are constantly waving their weapons, they can't block the front and can't block the left and right. From time to time, some people are hit by the arrow.
Without even meeting the enemy's face, they suffered heavy casualties, which can be described as extremely useless.
In the carriage, Xue shi and Shen Yiyao listened to the sound of 'dong, dong, dong' arrows being shot into the wall of the carriage, their faces were pale, and they looked at each other. Fortunately, this carriage is specially made, and the wood used is all high-quality, and no arrows were shot for a while.
"Madam, what should I do?" Cui Qiao's face was pale, her lips were trembling, and her words were out of tune.
A voice sounded outside: "Which group of people attacked, do you know who is sitting inside? We are the guards of the government's mansion, and the eldest lady of our mansion is sitting inside. I have never had a grudge against anyone, but I found the wrong person. ?"
No one answered, and the rain of arrows in the jungle continued to shoot.
A guard came to the window and whispered: "Ma'am, it looks like it's coming for us. There are too many people on the other side and they don't show up at all. They just attack with arrows. I'm afraid brothers..."
Before the words could fall, a scream rang out.
It was already obvious that this group of people were obviously here for the Duke Zhenguo's mansion, and maybe even for Shen Yiyao. It's just that Shen Yiyao is a good-natured woman, and she's a woman who doesn't go out of her way, so who can she have a grudge against, even to the point of putting her to death
Seeing that it was impossible to do good, the leader of the guard shouted sharply: "Since it is for our government, tell your lord, no matter who he is, as long as our eldest miss suffers a little bit of damage, from now on, the ends of the earth will be endless. !"
After speaking, a long whistle: "Brothers who can still move, fight with them."
All this happened in an instant, and almost before he fought back, he was killed and injured. At this moment, those who were able to move were beaten so hard that they could not lift their heads, and the horses also fell down with arrows. The horse that Shen Yiyao was riding was the first to fall to the ground. These people are vicious, and they are completely trying to catch everything.
Just when everyone in the carriage was shivering, Hui Niang, who was sitting in a corner, moved.
She pulled out the long whip around her waist and pulled up Shen Yiyao: "Madam, I'll take you out."
"But-"
Madam Hui followed her gaze, looked at Xue Shi and Cui Qiao, who were shaking like chaff, and closed her eyes: "I guess it's for Madam, and now I can only pray that these people see me and take Madam out. , come after us."
The flesh on Xue Shi's cheeks only trembled, and she gritted her teeth with a smile: "Brother and sister, let's go, she has only one person and can't take us both. The wall of this carriage is so thick that it can't be attacked for a while, maybe it's as Madam Hui said, see the target Leave and stop."
Everyone knows that this is just a word of comfort, and it may be a dead end just to kill. Just now he looked out from the window, the arrows were raining all over the sky, and now we can only hope that Madam Hui is strong in martial arts, and there is really a way to take Shen Yiyao out. Otherwise, when the guards outside are all dead and wounded, waiting for everyone is a word of death.
Between these words, Madam Hui quickly pulled down a layer of brocade curtains that surrounded the car wall, and lifted the short table with the saucer and snacks in the car. Shen Yiyao came to tie the piece of wood to her back, then put Shen Yiyao on her back, and tied it tightly to herself with the extra strip of cloth.
After doing all this, Madam Hui took a deep breath and squeezed the whip in her hand.
At this time, the field was in chaos, and the remaining guards rushed into the woods with a certain death mentality, and finally confronted these gangsters who were hiding their heads and their tails. Although the number was much smaller than the opponent, they also disturbed the offensive. .
It was this time that the carriage, which had not moved for a long time, suddenly made a loud noise, the roof of the carriage flew into the air, and a figure appeared. The man's hands were extremely agile, and he used his strength to hit the huge roof of the car into a place where the arrows were dense, and suddenly heard a miserable howl coming from the woods.
In the chaos, Madam Hui sneered and poured into everyone's ears.
"Just this little trick, I still want to kill. I will take my wife away first. Everyone who has been protecting the brothers for so long, everyone escaped. When I return to the Duke's Mansion, I will definitely report to the Duke to take revenge for you."
Between the words, this person has already rushed out at a very fast speed, and there is another person behind him, so don't think it must be the target this time.
In just a blink of an eye, the man sprang five feet away and walked away.
As the man left, there was an explosion in the sky, and when I looked up, I saw a very dazzling dark blue mark in the sky, hanging in the air and not going away for a long time.
