...

"Isn't this clear?"

Liu Shi wrapped a white medicine cloth around her wrist, and the wound that had just been applied made her painful.

When think of the doctor talking about this injury, it will take two months to heal. When the weather is hot, the pain will be even worse.

The hatred in Liu's heart deepened.

The maid next to Liu Shi fell behind her voice and said, "Madam, the sharp weapon that hurt you is made of sharp stones, and I can't find out where it came from. The old man has already sent someone to the government office. Those maids The servant's body was searched, and no one had a sharp weapon on him. Madam, please wait..."

"Wait?" Mrs Liu sneered, "There are those princes, nobles and young talents who came to the banquet. Why don't you search and search them?"

"What are you talking about, those princes and nobles, young talents, if they offend, can they treat Ning Anbo's house in a fair way?"

Jiang Xingchuan stepped into the room, looked at his angry wife, frowned, and reprimanded, "I already know what happened this morning."

Afraid that he would be angry, Mrs Liu said with trembling lips: "Master, that was just a whimper of the concubine, and I wouldn't seriously ask people to search those distinguished guests."

She was just dissatisfied with the uncle's obvious partiality. The affairs of the Sifang family were a big deal. When she came to her, why should she swallow her up.

Jiang Xingchuan sat on the side of the bed, looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "I know you have suffered for more than 20 days and suffered grievances."

When Liu Shi heard this, his eyes were red.

Seeing her husband come in, she was afraid that he would blame her for being ignorant.

Changing her husband knew that she had worked hard, but he didn't.

"But why are you so clueless?"

Jiang Xingzhou's face suddenly sank.

Liu Shi's tearful eyes were filled with daze, and she looked at him at a loss, "How come I don't know what to do with my concubine..."

"Are you going to hide it from me?" Jiang Xingchuan snapped, "The fourth brother has already told me."

"If it wasn't for me who bumped into the fourth brother and stopped him to find my father, have you ever thought about how this would end?" He complained a little: "The fourth brother cares more about his wife and daughter, don't you? I don't know. It's not good for you to move someone, but you want to move his heart. If it's his daughter's fault, if this matter gets bigger, do you really think that someone will believe you just one word?"

Liu Shi's face was blue and white when he was said, and he lowered his head.

"Yes, that girl is right."

But she clenched her fingers, not only did she not see the slightest bit of guilt on her face, but instead said loudly, "But what's wrong with my concubine?"

His voice was full of resentment.

Qin's family is well-mannered, and in exchange for inviting the play troupe of Qingliyuan, the uncle and the old lady will definitely be happy. When they were happy, the concubine was unhappy, and the concubine felt sorry for the master. The old man was originally inclined to the fourth room. If he could see that the fourth room was better, wouldn’t a bowl of water be even more uneven? "

Jiang Xingchuan's face was faintly loosened, but he frowned, "But you can't make up the facts..."

"My concubine doesn't want to do this either. But if I don't confuse black and white, the sharp-toothed girl will go to the uncle to file a complaint. At that time, I will suffer a loss, and the master will also be embarrassed! For the reputation of the master, I always have to bet A bet..."

Mrs. Liu raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her resentfully, "The concubine thought of a way to let the uncle see the badness of the fourth room, not to let the uncle remember the goodness of our family and let yours Noble title is infallible. My lord, I am all for you..."

Jiang Xingchuan's face changed slightly.

He looked at his wife with tears in his eyes, frowned for a while, and his eyes were hesitant.

In the end, he couldn't bear to blame Liu Shi any more.

But before he got up and left, he instead warned Liu Shi, "You calmly recover from your injury, and don't show your face at today's birthday banquet."

Mrs. Liu tightened her teeth. The old lady's birthday banquet was such a big day that she didn't attend. Outsiders really thought it was Mrs. Qin who was in charge of Ning Anbo's house.

Once it is passed on, where will her face go?

She stood up suddenly, "I only hurt my wrist, not my legs."

Jiang Xingchuan ignored her words.

He ordered a servant to stay in the yard and look at Liu Shi.

Looking at Liu's personal maid again, he instructed in a cold voice, "Take good care of Madam, and don't let Madam go out."

In other words, be optimistic about Mrs.

Tears of grievance welled up in Liu's eyes.

After the uncle of the Jiang family left, the maid next to the Liu family wiped away the tears on her face.

With the disappearance of Jiang Xingchuan, the sadness on Liu's face gradually dissipated.

His eyes became sinister due to obsession.

"My lord is just too confused, a woman's heart."

She scolded in a low voice, turned to look at her personal maid, and clenched her fists, "I didn't want to go this far."

The personal maid understood, "The sweet soup Madam mentioned yesterday..."

Liu Shi looked up and saw the flowers blooming like brocade outside, but his heart was as cold as a bucket of water.

Unaware of her painstaking efforts, her husband took pity on her as a woman, in exchange for his husband's title, he tried every means to plan.

If you don't want to do anything to prevent Sifang, sooner or later, it will make Sifang a big problem.

The matter of her shop is unclear, maybe there is a fourth room's handwriting.

It is better to cut them clean as soon as they return to Jinling, let them be completely ashamed early, and get out of Jinling in despair.

Thinking like this, he said bitterly, "Let's arrange it."

If many guests at the banquet eat bad stomach.

Qin Shi, who set out to organize the banquet, was bound to have nothing to do with it.

Including the little girl who embarrassed her this morning, it is also inseparable from the relationship.

Liu Shi sneered, and suddenly felt that being locked in this yard was not so uncomfortable.

When it was time for lunch, she waited to see Qin's joke.

...

The sky is getting brighter and brighter, the guests are gradually coming together, and the troupe of the Tingyin Pavilion is already in order.

It was a long time before the time for lunch.

After the old birthday star arrived at the Tingyin Academy, the troupe sang a play on the stage, the gongs and drums on the stage were noisy, and all of a sudden it became lively.

Yu Yinxue didn't want to listen to the play, and from time to time his eyes moved to the direction of the female family members, he looked at Jiang Rao's back, his fingers clenched into fists, and he made up his mind secretly.

Jiang Rao also had no intention of listening to the play.

She was among the female family members, and she paid attention to the jewelry on everyone's hands.

Looking for the woman with the blue bracelet in her dream.

But the girls were all wearing wide-sleeved clothes, and their wrists were firmly blocked, so everyone's wrists could not be seen.

Jiang Rao wondered even more about her dream, what exactly she was dreaming about.

The troupe sang, read and played on the stage.

In her heart, she also pretended to be a troupe, guessing the various directions of the dream.

The heart was noisy, and the stage was also noisy. Jiang Rao quietly got up and left the seat, and when she arrived at the small pavilion outside the Tingyin Academy, her heart became a little bit clearer.

Afraid that she might be negligent, she asked Ming Shao to fetch a paintbrush and drawing paper, painted the pattern on the blue bracelet, and described the color of the blue bracelet to Ming Shao, and asked her to go with other maids in her family. Talk about it, pay attention to see if there is any girl at the banquet wearing a blue bracelet.

After Ming Shao left, Jiang Rao wanted to wait for her mother to accompany the old lady to listen to the play, then find her mother and ask her to check whether there were any problems with the various meals at today's birthday banquet.

The mother had been in the back house longer than she had, and had always seen more than she had.

She couldn't figure out what the problem was, maybe her mother could.

Thinking like this, Jiang Rao was in the pavilion, waiting for the sound of singing in the listening courtyard to dissipate.

Instead of waiting for the singing voice to become quieter, waited for a childish elder sister.

Jiang Jinxing remembers my sister

Almost got kidnapped.

As soon as he couldn't find Jiang Rao, he panicked a little.

It was not until he found Jiang Rao at the gazebo that he breathed a sigh of relief and ran towards Jiang Rao with his arms open.

Jiang Rao greeted his brother who opened his arms, hugged him, and frowned, "How come you have become lighter?"

I stared at his face again and took a closer look, his face didn't seem to be as fleshy as before.

Jiang Jinxing said in a straight-forward manner, "Do as the custom in the countryside."

Jiang Rao waited for the next sentence of his nonsense.

Jiang Jinxing made a comparison around his stomach, "Who made the dog hole here only so thin."

Jiang Rao didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

It turned out that his fat and thin change came from the dog hole.

Jiang Rao looked at the servant behind Jiang Jinxing, "Look at the young master more."

In the past, when Jiang Jinxing heard Jiang Rao let the servant look at him, he would definitely make trouble.

Today, he stared at Jiang Rao eagerly.

Seeing that his elder sister was nothing, he wanted to tell her that he might be imprisoned in the Bailu Academy for a lifetime.

But was afraid that she would be worried, so held back and didn't say anything, just stared at Jiang Rao's face and secretly glanced more.

Jiang Rao looked back and suddenly remembered something.

Looking at the servant again: "Go find a thin blanket and give it to the Ninth Highness."

When Liu was injured just now, she swept to Rong Ting among the guests. Seeing that he seemed to have caught a cold, she wanted someone to send a blanket over.

It's just that Mrs. Liu was injured suddenly, and the servants who came here were all for Mrs. Liu. They didn't find the right person, so it was delayed for a while.

Jiang Jinxing volunteered: "Sister, I'll help you."

He will soon be locked in the academy, until he has changed from a human to a ghost, and he will not be able to get out.

Originally, I wanted to grow up and support my sister when I grew up.

But he couldn't.

Before being locked in, he had to do something for his elder sister.

Before running away, he glanced at Jiang Rao with nostalgia.

That look was like a goodbye.

When turned around, wanted to cry.

Even if he wanted to help his elder sister do a lot of things.

But when we meet again, he becomes a ghost brother.

Blame that Yan Nanxun.

That's a jerk living in the world! eat kids!

Jiang Jinxing's heart was full of tears.

Running and thinking...

Sister, I can only help you here.

...

When Yu Yinxue saw Jiang Rao leave the table, he had a ghost idea in his heart.

He also wanted to find an excuse to leave temporarily, and then create a chance to meet Jiang Rao by chance.

Just now, when he helped Jiang Rao to speak in front of Mrs. Liu, and then gave the old lady a birthday gift, Fourth Master Jiang was indeed the same beloved daughter as rumored, and his attitude towards him was a little more polite than that of others.

But this polite exchange is alienating, and it is far from being the son-in-law of their family who likes him.

Yu Yinxue thought about this in his heart, and after a while, he used the toilet as an excuse to get up and leave the table.

But after walking out of the listening courtyard, I heard a voice behind me, "Brother stay."

Looking back, saw that it was Rong Ting.

Rong Ting controlled the wheelchair and walked towards him, "Senior Brother Yu."

He had a faint smile on his face, and the smile seemed harmless to humans and animals. The young man's black clothes, his face was particularly clean in the sun, and he didn't look aggressive.

But Yu Yinxue was dissatisfied with Rong Ting taking his place just now, and now seeing the young man with such a good-looking appearance, his heart was even more unhappy, when he bowed his hands and lowered his head, his gaze was slightly cold, "His Royal Highness. "

Although his voice was respectful, he held back a trace of displeasure, "Where is your ninth highness going?"

Rong Ting hooked his lips.

There was a smile in his eyes, but for no reason, Yu Yinxue felt that his smile was cold and piercing.

Rong Ting did not answer Yu Yinxue's question.

But like a little fox, Yu Yinxue's question was thrown back to him, "Where are you going, Senior Brother?"

Yu Yinxue couldn't say that he was looking for Jiang Rao.

If people know his thoughts, there will be many people who spurn him for clinging to power.

Years of low status made him particularly understand the fear of people.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Rong Ting say, "Are you looking for Miss Jiang?"

Yu Yin learned for a while.

How does he know?

The thought that he wanted to hide was pierced like this, and it was exposed to the bright side, and he couldn't help but panic in his sight.

Rong Ting saw that Yu Yinxue's expression changed in front of him, exactly as he expected.

The anger in my heart was even stronger.

Just thinking that it is not appropriate to see blood today, those dark thoughts were quietly pressed to death in his heart, with a genial smile on his face, "Senior brother, don't panic, junior brother will not think about it."

The young boy's gentle and reassuring tone, and the pleasant look on his face, made Yu Yinxue feel relieved.

However, he didn't know that his expression changed slightly, and the silence at this moment made Rong Ting determine what he wanted to do.

The boy's voice was steep, more like a gentle knife, and the conversation turned sharp, "I'm going to find Miss Jiang too."

Yu Yinxue asked again, "Why?"

Rong Ting stared at the expression on Yu Yinxue's face, his eyes were deep, as if he could see through people completely. In the pupils, world-weariness is still the background color.

"Her aunt is Concubine Yun in the palace. I'm about the same age as her. We only met in the palace before. We have known each other since childhood. It's really boring to listen to the opera sung by that troupe, and I only recognize her here..."

Yu Yinxue breathed a sigh of relief.

Rong Ting suddenly frowned, "But..."

Yu Yinxue was disturbed by Rong Ting's few words, so he felt a little tired, and asked tiredly, "But what..."

"I suddenly don't want to find her anymore."

Rong Ting acted as if he had suddenly remembered something, and put away the wheelchair that was turning.

Yu Yinxue couldn't help but be suspicious, "Why do you suddenly want to go back?"

"I'm afraid of making her angry."

Rong Ting shrugged, "Her aunt broke her mood early in the morning, and my senior brother also saw it."

"As for her, when she was angry since she was a child, it was easy for her to have a sulky temper by herself."

His frown deepened, and he couldn't help his tone, "When she was sulking alone, she was unhappy when she saw no one, I didn't want to make her unhappy, fortunately I just remembered this, and it didn't happen. disaster."

Yu Yin did not dare to move forward after learning.

Rong Ting looked up at him.

The clear light in his pupils was shaking, his expression was sincere, as sincere as if he was persuading people to rein in their horses and turn back, "Senior brother, you should go back too. If you upset her the first time, then later..."

He deliberately left half of his words unspoken.

But it was precisely because he didn't say it that the consequences became more serious.

Yu Yinxue hesitated because of Rong Ting's words.

If Jiang Rao is in a bad mood at the moment, he hastily stepped forward, it is indeed not a matter of favor.

Change it to You Rong Ting's reminder, otherwise almost did something wrong...

It's just that Yu Yinxue is also a person with some tricks and tricks on weekdays.

He quickly realized something was wrong.

Rong Ting's appearance that he has a good relationship with Jiang Rao, in exchange for his tone that seems to know her well... Where does it come from?

He is the prince raised by the queen, and the relationship between the queen and Concubine Yun is not good...

How could he get acquainted with Jiang Rao?

Obviously, the empress's child and the noble concubine's niece should be in an irreconcilable relationship.

He began to doubt Rong Ting's words.

It was not even clear what Rong Ting told him about it.

Rong Ting has always been alone in the academy, and he doesn't like to have fun, and he hardly communicates with others.

They had only met a few times before, and Rong Ting was also lukewarm to him.

How did you get so enthusiastic and change so kindly?

Yu Yinxue felt more and more unfamiliar with Rong Ting in front of him, and was very wary of him.

At this moment, a white ball ran over from a distance.

Running closer, only to find that it was a child holding a fox velvet blanket.

The child stopped in front of the two of them.

He showed his two eyes from behind the thin velvet, his round eyes blinked, and his eyes rolled over Rong Ting and Yu Yinxue.

Jiang Jinxing didn't know Yu Yinxue, and his eyes just swept away.

Finally, he stopped on Rong Ting's body, laughed, and took two steps towards Rong Ting's body extraordinarily kindly, "His Royal Highness, my sister is afraid that you will catch a cold, so let me bring you a thin fleece blanket."
