As an emperor, Baili Zhen is very superstitious about heaven's predictions. Previously, he received instructions from Master Huiyuan and found out that several people in Pancheng had similar natal charts. Through calculation and the recent performance of several people,
He deduced that Hua Shuxue was probably the Phoenix Lord, so he wanted to point out Hua Shuxue to his son Bailitan. If not, he would not agree to it anyway based on Hua Shuxue's ugly appearance.
The son married her.
But now there are rumors that a golden fire phoenix has been seen landing in the general's mansion.
He has already sent people to investigate this matter. The result of the investigation is that many people saw the golden fire phoenix falling into the Prime Minister's Mansion, and those who saw it also said that the phoenix hovered for a long time before it slowed down.
disappear slowly.
This made Baili Zhen, the emperor of the Llan Kingdom, confused. Who was the host of the Phoenix Star? According to his opinion, Shangguan Rumeng was indeed inferior to Hua Shuxue in everything, but if
Shangguan Rumeng is really the master of Lingque Terrace, or he may be keeping her reputation secretive and hiding her true identity. If he points out the wrong marriage to his son, it will be more of a loss than a gain.
In the study room, Baili Zhen looked at Yuan Zhan solemnly and asked Yuan Zhan's opinion.
The light flashed across Yuan Zhan's clear pupils, so fast that even Emperor Baili Zhen didn't catch him. All he could see was that his delicate face was frowning thoughtfully. In fact, the real Phoenix star was
The host must be Hua Shuxue, because when he went to catch her that night, he saw the illusion she used, which was very similar to the rumored ghost sect technique used by the master of Lingque Terrace. In addition, if she was unusually weak,
How could a woman dare to carefully plan the assassination of the emperor?
However, Yuan Zhan had many doubts in his heart. For some reason, he didn't want to reveal Hua Shuxue's status as the master of Lingque Terrace, and he didn't want her to get involved in any disputes.
But as a subordinate, he knew very well that at this moment he should inform Baili Zhen of his own judgment, but he opened his mouth but could not say anything.
Baili Zhen had no doubts about him. He had deep trust in Yuan Zhan and had never doubted him.
There was silence in the upper study room. It took a long time to hear Yuan Zhan's clear and cool voice: "I don't know which of the two of them is the person of Lord Feng. The emperor believes that Hua Shuxue is the person of Lord Feng. I don't know who he is."
What do you rely on?"
Emperor Hui frowned and thought deeply, and his heart suddenly became clearer.
He thought that Hua Shuxue was the host of Phoenix Star, but it was just that she had been showing superiority and attracting people in every possible way recently, so it was natural for him to think that Hua Shuxue was the host of Phoenix Star. In fact, the real host of Phoenix Star was the host of Lingque Terrace.
I'm afraid the master won't act in such a high-profile manner, then he is wrong.
"Could it be that my calculation was wrong? The real host of the Phoenix Star is Shangguan Rumeng. That's why the fire phoenix descended from the sky."
If Yuan Zhan didn't speak, he felt that whatever he said or did at the moment was wrong. It would be better to say nothing, do nothing, and leave everything to Emperor Hui's decision. This was only fair to Hua Shuxue.
.
However, Yuan Zhan deeply thought about who had spread the legend of the Fire Phoenix, and whether it was man-made or a real foreshadowing.
Emperor Hui Baili Zhen raised his thick eyebrows and ordered in a deep voice to go down.
"Yuan Zhan, go and fetch Shangguan Rumeng into the palace. I want to meet this girl."
Although he heard that Shangguan Rumeng, the general of the Lun Kingdom, was unparalleled in beauty and versatile in both civil and military affairs, he actually did not pay much attention to this woman. Now he wanted to take a closer look and evaluate whether she was really the prince Bailitan.
The destined princess.
"Yes, I will go immediately."
Yuan Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still a trace of worry in his heart, because he had seen Shangguan Rumeng before. She was just a domineering and arrogant daughter of an official family. If she came in front of Emperor Hui, would she
As for the flaw, Emperor Hui, as the emperor of the Lian Kingdom, naturally had extraordinary abilities. His flaming eyes could not only read countless people, but also be able to spy on them.
However, Yuan Zhan could no longer think too much about this matter. He immediately left the palace and went to the residence of General Shangguan Rumu, and took Shangguan Mu's legitimate daughter Shangguan Rumeng into the palace.
Today, Shangguan Rumeng is much more low-key. She wears a pink dress and a white waistcoat. She is an outstanding person, so she dresses up like this. She becomes more and more delicate and delicate, and her movements are even more elegant and decent. She is as graceful as a jade, Yuan.
Zhan couldn't help but be surprised. He hadn't seen him for a few days, but Shangguan Rumeng's behavior was completely different from before. He seemed to be a restrained and well-educated person. What was going on?
Yuan Zhan guessed in his mind and took Shangguan Rumeng all the way to the palace to meet the saint.
When Emperor Hui saw Shangguan Rumeng, his pupils could not help but darken, and he was full of deep thoughts. Such a generous, restrained and beautiful woman should be the Phoenix Lord, the real master of Lingque Terrace. As for Hua Shuxue,
There was some annoyance in Baili Zhen's eyes. He was really too rude and not qualified to take on the important task of being the master of Lingque Terrace.
With this thought in mind, Emperor Hui began to examine Shangguan Rumenglai carefully. After several encounters, Shangguan Rumeng was good at what he did. Not only that, he was so generous and decent that no one could see a hint of disdain. Emperor Hui became more and more interested in Shangguan Rumeng.
Feeling satisfied, he ordered people to send Shangguan Rumeng out of the palace.
When Shangguan Rumeng left, Baili Zhen's face turned warm.
"Yuan Zhan, I think this Shangguan Rumeng should be the person from Fengzhuxing."
"Then the emperor decides to marry Shangguan Rumeng to Prince Bailitan?"
Yuan Zhan asked softly, feeling relieved in his heart. For some reason, he just didn't want Hua Shuxue to be involved in the emperor's plan.
Who would have thought that when Emperor Baili Zhen heard Yuan Zhan's words, he did not confirm immediately. Instead, he hesitated a little: "But I am still a little unsure. What if Shangguan Rumeng is not from Fengzhuxing, but someone else?"
?Also, you found that there are four people with similar natal charts. Apart from these two, aren't there two more? You also ordered someone to check them carefully for me to see if they have any abnormal behavior."
"Yes, I accept the order."
Emperor Hui was suspicious by nature. Although he believed that Shangguan Rumeng could be the host of Fengxing, he was afraid that he would make a mistake. This was a matter of great importance to the country, and there was no room for sloppiness, so now he is jointly and severally
He also became interested in those two women.
Yuan Zhan was a little speechless, but now that Emperor Hui didn't have his thoughts on Hua Shuxue, he felt relieved. But as soon as this thought came to an end, he heard Emperor Hui's instructions again.
"Also, I have to pay close attention to Hua Shuxue. Don't be careless. Now I have to pay attention to these women. I must not make any mistakes."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Yuan Zhan took the order and walked out, and went to the study. Emperor Hui ordered the eunuch: "Go and invite the prince into the palace."
Three days later was the Autumn Hunting. He was injured in this Autumn Hunting, so he could not participate in person. He could only be led by Prince Bailitan to form a group of princes and ministers from the court to go to Qiya together.
The paddock was being hunted, and yet another envoy from the Yun and Xia kingdoms was still waiting for them to leave, so they should do their best to invite people to participate in this autumn hunt.
In the study, the eunuch obeyed the order and immediately went out of the palace to invite the prince Bailitan into the palace.
Prince Bailitan was currently in the Prince's Mansion. After watching the lanterns that night, he summoned his staff to study strategies on how to please women and how to impress women. He had already prepared several plans and was thinking of one.
As soon as the order was implemented, the eunuchs did not want to come to deliver the order. His father in the palace announced that he would enter the palace, and Prince Bailitan entered the palace immediately.
Baili Zhen assigned the prince about the hunting in the paddock in three days, and did not forget to give instructions to the prince beforehand.
"Recently, you have been focusing more on this matter, and don't always focus on Hua Shuxue."
Bailitan was a little stunned and stared at Bailizhen in the study room. It was his father who summoned him to the palace earlier and told him that he wanted to marry Hua Shuxue to him, and also said that Hua Shuxue refused to marry him.
Encourage him to use his brains to solve Hua Shuxue's problems. There is nothing to fear from a woman. But now his father actually asked him not to put his mind on Hua Shuxue. Bailitan is a little confused. Father, this is
What's the meaning.
"What does father mean?"
Baili Zhen finally felt that it was not a good idea to talk about this matter, and he did not want to tell Bailitan about Master Huiyuan's calculation of Phoenix Master, because after all, this matter was not settled yet, and if it were leaked, it would be
Trouble.
"I want you to organize this autumn hunt well. Prince Yun and Prince Xia are still in the country of Lan. During this autumn hunt, we in the country of Lan will naturally do our best to invite landlords.
They are participating together to ensure that nothing happens to them, so you must be careful and don't be careless."
Baili Zhen spoke sternly.
Bailitan had no doubt that he was there, and calmly received the order: "Yes, I will obey the order."
But he didn't listen to Baili Zhen's words. This autumn hunting was a good opportunity. Why not invite Hua Shuxue to join in. If he encounters a wild beast or something, a hero will come to save the beauty. But
It is easiest to move the heart of a beautiful woman. Thinking of this, Bailitan's face is particularly beautiful and cowardly.
Baili Zhen waved his hand, gesturing for him to go down and handle the matter.
Autumn hunting is a grand ceremonial activity in the Lan Kingdom. In previous years, the Emperor of the Lan Kingdom, Baili Zhen, would personally lead a team, ranging from the emperor to the princes and ministers, to hunt in the Crow Paddock.
But this year, because Emperor Bailizhen of the Llan Kingdom was assassinated by an assassin, his body did not recover, so Bailizhen ordered the prince Bailitan to lead the team. In addition to the people of the Llan Kingdom, Yun was also invited to this autumn hunt.
Guo and Xia Guo and others were present, so Baili Zhen was afraid of any accidents, so he specially told Bailitan to make good preparations. Bailitan received the order and did not dare to be careless. Every level was strictly controlled to ensure that everything was foolproof.
.
In Hua Mansion, Hua Shuxue received an invitation from Prince Bailitan, asking her to participate in the Autumn Hunt.
In the flower hall of Nuanxue Pavilion, Hua Shuxue closed her eyes slightly, holding the invitation letter in one hand, thinking about whether to go or not.
Hong Luan, who was standing on one side, was gently squeezing her shoulders. From time to time, she glanced at her master. Looking at the expression on her face, she seemed not to want to go, so she whispered: "Master, if you don't want to go, don't go."
Go ahead, this autumn hunting is originally a matter for men."
Hua Shuxue's lips curved into a smile, and she suddenly opened her eyes, her eyebrows were strange and charming.
"Go, why don't you go? I think something interesting will happen during the autumn hunt this time, so why don't I go and see the excitement?"
She almost forgot one thing. She had provoked Prince Su Bailiping earlier. This autumn hunting was an excellent opportunity. Prince Su Bailiping would not be stupid enough to stay still. Besides, if the emperor didn't go, only Prince Baili would be there.
If Tan leads the team, then Baili Bing will hunt unscrupulously. In this way, not only the prey will be hunted in this paddock, but also people?
How could she miss such a good show? She thought with a smile on her face and eyes, and said with a smile: "Hong Luan, send someone to return to His Highness the Crown Prince. I will go in three days."
"Yes, Master."
Hong Luan didn't know why her master changed his mind, but she agreed and went out to do things.
Prince Bailitan was very happy to know that Hua Shuxue had been invited to participate in the autumn hunting expedition, so he spent the next time busy with the hunting and did not disturb Hua Shuxue. As for other people, it seemed that they were also very busy, not only Bailitan
In Litan, even the crown prince of Yun Kingdom, Xuanyuan Yue, did not move. Hua Shuxue was happy and quiet. She was just trying to find out about her life experience, and she had been given the opportunity to do so in the past three days.
Unfortunately, Huazhuang is the minister of the Ministry of War of the Lian Kingdom. He is also busy with the autumn hunting. He can't see anyone all day long. It is difficult for Hua Shuxue to see him, so how can he let him go and take care of the three people?
The lady offered a commission to the wife, so Hua Shuxue decided to knock on the old lady of Hua Mansion.
In the Huaiyuan, the old lady's room was full of people. From the old lady, the eldest lady Yan and others, to the old lady's personal maid Yizhu and others, the little devils Hua Yizhu and Hua Shuwen were all there.
, a room full of people.
The old lady was smiling all over her face. Although she was very angry at Hua Shuxue's lack of appreciation, the emperor intended to marry her to the prince Bailitan. What a great opportunity this was, but she actually refused to marry. What a brainiac.
There will be no problem, the old lady has been thinking this way, but in front of Hua Shuxue, she was smiling all over her face, because Huazhuang said that the emperor asked the prince to cultivate a relationship with Hua Shuxue, and then he would also help them
If the marriage is planned, then the girl in front of her is probably the future crown princess. Naturally, she doesn't want to offend the future crown princess, so she has a loving smile on her face.
One hand held Hua Shuxue tightly, and while touching her hand, she talked to everyone in the room, and they were all in harmony.
Hua Shuxue had goosebumps all over her body. If she hadn't endured it, she really wanted to throw away the old lady's hand and touch her. It's not like she was really nice to her, but she just thought she might be in Hua's family.
It's just useful, so why bother pretending to be so disgusting and humiliating other people's eyes in vain.
The little devil at the bottom saw her today. He didn't mean to cause trouble at all. He behaved well. As expected, he was scared by her last time. As for Hua Shuwen and Hua Shuyun, although he was jealous, he didn't dare to provoke her. He only took
A pair of eyes would gouge her out from time to time.
In the room, the third lady and the fourth lady would tell funny jokes from time to time to make others laugh. As for Mrs. Yan, she did not speak from the beginning to the end. She looked at Hua Shuxue from time to time with a pair of peaceful eyes. I don’t know why Hua Shuxue always felt that
She looked at her with a deep meaning, and she could not yet detect what the deep meaning was.
Hua Shuxue said while thinking: "How old is Zhu'er this year?"
The little devil Hua Yizhu immediately said obediently: "Nine years old."
In the past, he would not have responded so obediently and would have cursed a long time ago. But as soon as he thought of Hua Shuxue hitting him with a board, pinching his fingers, and then washing his mouth with water from the cesspit, he immediately behaved himself.
Dare he be careless at all, not to mention his mother said that if he dares to offend this eldest sister again, he will be sent to the eldest lady Yan's side, and he will never be able to stay with his mother again. When he thinks of this
, Hua Yizhu can no longer be as arrogant as before.
Although the eldest lady Yan is very gentle, Hua Yizhu is still a little afraid of her, because when the eldest lady looks at him, she seems to hate him, although he doesn't know how he offended his aunt, and this matter
He didn't dare to tell others that the eldest lady was very nice to outsiders.
After listening to Hua Yizhu's words, Hua Shuxue nodded, and then looked at Hua Yizhu with a look of pity: "He is the only male in our Hua family, but with his status now, it will be difficult for him to find a job in the future.
.”
Although he is the only male in the Hua Mansion, he is still a concubine in status, so his future career will definitely be affected.
As soon as Hua Shuxue finished speaking, everyone in the room changed their expressions. This time, she saw the expression of the eldest lady Yan also changed.
Hua Shuxue couldn't help but twitch the corners of her lips. She thought that Yan could really keep his expression unchanged for thousands of years. It turned out that there were times when his skills were broken.
The expressions of everyone else in the room also changed. Hua Yizhu thought of what his mother said and shrank back into the arms of the third lady. Hua Shuyun didn’t know that Hua Shuyun
Xue asked what she was doing and stared at her fiercely.
In the room, the only one who was interested was the old lady. The old lady looked at Hua Shuxue and said lightly: "This matter is indeed a matter. It's rare for little Xue girl to think of it. The master mentioned it to me and said that he wanted to take care of the bamboo."
The son will be adopted into my wife's name, just like you did before."
If Hua Shuxue had not been adopted into the name of the eldest lady Yan, how could Prince Su propose to marry her? Once she had this status, everything would be different.
But as soon as the old lady finished speaking, the third lady's face changed and turned pale. She pulled Hua Yizhu and knelt down, not daring to say a word. This kind of thing was a gift from the old lady to their wives.
When she spoke, not only did she not dare to speak, but her body also started to tremble.
Hua Shuxue smiled faintly, took her hand out of the old lady's hand, reached for the table on one side, brought tea, held it gently, and said calmly: "Even if it is adopted in the name of the madam, it can't be changed.
His status as a concubine is just like mine. Even if he is adopted under the name of his wife and marries to Prince Su's palace, he will still be bullied by others, so Zhu'er's matter really needs to be carefully considered."
As soon as Hua Shuxue said these words, she felt a bunch of sharp light like a knife stabbing her body. However, when she looked over, she was still peaceful. The eldest lady Yan did not make any movement.
Hua Shuxue was certain that the sharp knife-like light before was indeed Yan's glare at her.
When the old lady heard what Hua Shuxue said, her face became thoughtful. In fact, when Hua Shuxue said this, the old lady already knew what she meant, because her son had told her about it beforehand, saying that Hua Shuxue suggested that the three
If the wife is raised as a common wife, then Hua Yizhu is naturally the legitimate son of the Hua family, and there is no need to adopt the name of the Yan family.
The old lady also knows that this method is feasible, and it must be for the sake of the only male in the Hua family. What Hua Shuxue said is not unreasonable, but why does Hua Shuxue want to help the third lady? The old lady's eyes are full of thoughtfulness
, I really can’t think of any involvement between these two people, and Hua Shuxue has not had any contact with the third lady during the time she came back from Prince Su’s Mansion. Is she really thinking about the Hua family? If she is really thinking about the Hua family.
Why did she refuse the emperor's proposed marriage? She knew that this proposed marriage would bring the Hua family to unprecedented glory.
The old lady's mind was spinning so many times, she raised her eyes and saw that the third lady was still kneeling, and she said unhurriedly: "Get up, what are you kneeling for?"
"Thank you, madam."
The third lady stood up and did not dare to say a word.
"What does Xue'er mean?" Although the old lady knew it, she didn't say it out loud and let Hua Shuxue say it. Hua Shuxue originally wanted to mention this matter, so she ignored the old lady's thoughts and spoke directly:
"By raising the third lady as an equal wife, wouldn't Zhu'er be the legitimate son of the Hua family? By then, whether he is an official or a businessman, he will not be looked down upon by others. You must know that he is the only one who is doing well now.
, Only the people of this Hua family have glory. If he fails, everyone in this family will have no one to rely on."
This last sentence was a bit sharp. The old lady was stopped for a moment, and then everyone in the room looked at the eldest lady Yan.
No matter how calm and gentle Yan was, her face was a little uneasy at the moment. She raised her eyes and looked at Hua Shuxue, saying nothing for a long time, but after all, the look in her eyes was not very good-looking.
How could Hua Shuxue be frightened by Yan's eyes? She didn't take it at all and continued to speak: "Madam has always been a charitable person who thinks about the Hua family, so if others don't agree with this matter, I'm afraid Madam won't disagree either.
Yes, it depends on what the old lady thinks."
A big hat was placed on Madam Yan's head. Yan's chest was heaving, which showed that she was very angry. Not only was she very angry, but she was unable to refute.
The old lady looked at Hua Shuxue, then at the eldest lady Yan, and couldn't help but laugh. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been natural enemies since ancient times. This old lady has suffered a lot in the battles with her daughter-in-law, so she saw her daughter-in-law at this time.
The old lady couldn't help but feel happy about the failure of Women's Day, so she followed Hua Shuxue's words.
"Young lady Xue has thought it through. Previously, I was worried that the eldest lady would not agree. Now that the eldest lady has given me some advice, I am now more thorough. For the sake of the Hua family and the good of Zhu'er, who doesn't agree? Who doesn't agree?
I can't get along with the ancestors of the Hua family. This lady has always loved Zhu'er the most and has the best interests of the Hua family, so how can I disagree? Okay, this matter will be settled. When the master comes back, I will propose it to him.
This incident made the third lady a equal wife, and Zhu'er's status naturally rose."
After the old lady finished speaking, Yan stood up suddenly, her expression changed several times. Everyone in the room looked at Yan, wondering what she meant by standing up. Yan suddenly woke up.
The person I played was a person who fasted and chanted Buddha's name. If he failed in such a short period of time, then all the efforts he had done before would be in vain. Thinking of this, he forced himself to smile and looked at the old lady: "Old lady, my wife
My stomach hurts a little, so I need to go and relieve myself first.”
The old lady nodded. Seeing Yan's complete defeat, she felt very happy and nodded: "Go, come over later and we will discuss this matter."
"yes."
The lady almost bit out the word, then turned around and walked out. Anyone with eyes could easily see that her body was swaying. The maid beside her immediately stepped forward to help her and walked out.
Hua Shuxue ate tea and watched the show, then looked at the old lady and sighed in her heart, this old lady is also shrewd. In just a short time, she beat her daughter-in-law to a pulp. The woman in this inner house is really powerful.
.
While thinking about it, she got up and said goodbye. She didn't want to spend time with these people. Anyway, she had said everything she should say. I believe the old lady also listened to it, so Hua Shuxue quietly glanced at the third husband's wife with her eyes, and then
He turned around and left the old lady's room.
The three masters and servants walked all the way out of the Sophora Courtyard and walked back to Nuanxue Pavilion on the broken green stone path.
Just as she was about to arrive at Nuanxue Pavilion, she saw a person emerging from behind the shade wall of a nearby tree. It was actually the third lady's personal maid. She glanced back and forth to make sure that no one was there, so she quickly said: "
Eldest lady, the third lady invites you to meet at the lotus pond of Hua Mansion tonight at Haishi, and she will tell you what you want to know."
After the little maid finished speaking, she quickly ducked under the shade of the tree and disappeared quickly.
Hua Shuxue stood under the wall, her pupils were dark, she didn't know what kind of different life experience she had. It seemed that the third lady also had good intentions. Before the master gave the order to make her his equal wife, he told her first
About her life experience.
good.
"Let's go back."
The three masters and servants returned to Nuanxue Pavilion. Next, Hua Shuxue stayed in Nuanxue Pavilion and waited. She knew the lotus pond of the Hua family. It was not far from Nuanxue Pavilion. She crossed the old lady's pagoda courtyard and went there.
You can see the two promenades. In the summer, the lotus pond is very beautiful, but it is late autumn now, so it is all solemn.
The third lady invited us to meet at the lotus pond because the terrain there is relatively remote and no one goes there, making it easier to talk.
At Haishi, the moonlight hit the branches, and the whole house was silent, as if a layer of gauze had been gathered. Hua Shuxue led the two maids Hong Luan and Qing Luan out of Nuanxue Pavilion and walked all the way to the lotus pond of Hua's house.
There was silence in Nuo Da's mansion, and the patrolling guards didn't know where they were staying. The lotus pond was a secluded place, so it was even more deserted.
There is a flat bridge on the lotus pond. Hua Shuxue, the master and the servant, stood on the bridge. They quickly looked up and saw no one. After waiting for a while, Hua Shuxue became a little angry and said coldly: "
Could it be that these three ladies are actually playing tricks on us?"
She really hadn't thought about this problem before, and she thought that the third lady didn't have the courage and didn't dare to provoke them. Unexpectedly, there was no one now.
Hua Shuxue's eyes were cold and she said gloomily: "Go back."
As soon as she finished speaking, Hong Luan behind her suddenly screamed, and then she pulled Hua Shuxue with a look of horror on her face and pointed at the dark lotus pond behind her: "Master, look, there seems to be a person here?"
After hearing her words, Hua Shuxue quickly leaned out and looked under the Pingqiao. Under the pitch-black bridge, there was indeed a person lying face down. Although the light was dim, Hua Shuxue's eyes were like mirrors and she could see at a glance.
It turns out that there is indeed a person down there. They have been here for a while, but there is no movement from this person. It is conceivable that this person is dead. Who is it?
Hong Luan and Qing Luan beside them both changed their expressions, and one of them said in a deep voice: "Miss, let's go quickly, I'm afraid someone is trying to set a trap to harm us."
However, before the three masters and servants had gone far, they heard a set of footsteps not far away, and then saw someone carrying a lantern walking from the opposite side of the lotus pond, shouting: "
Mother, mother, where are you? Mother?"
The visitor turned out to be Hua Shuyun, the third young lady of the Hua family.
Hua Shuxue's heart sank. Could it be that the person who died in the lotus pond was actually the third lady? After thinking about it, I'm afraid she really was the third lady.
Who killed the third lady, Hua Shuxue thought quickly, and then thought of the eldest lady Yan.
However, if the three masters and servants left now, Hua Shuyun behind them would be hard-pressed to speak, so Hua Shuxue simply stood, winked at Hong Luan and Qing Luan, and then faced Hua Shuyun directly.
Yun walked over and spoke as if nothing had happened.
"It's a nice night tonight, it seems like it's time for us to go out for a walk."
Hua Shuxue's brisk voice rang out, and the three of them walked up to Hua Shuyun and others in a few strides.
When they both looked at each other, Hua Shuyun raised an eyebrow, glared at Hua Shuxue impatiently, and then said angrily: "Eldest sister saw my mother kiss."
Hua Shuxue shook her head and expressed her ignorance: "I haven't seen her. I wonder where the third lady has gone?"
"What does it have to do with you?"
Hua Shuyun snorted coldly, then pushed Hua Shuxue away and led the servants behind him towards the lotus pond in front. Hua Shuxue led Hong Luan and Qing Luan away as if nothing had happened, silently
She wondered if Hua Shuyun would not be able to find the third lady under the lotus pond, but as soon as her thoughts came to the ground, she heard a frightened voice.
"Miss, look quickly."
Then several exclamations sounded. At this time, Hua Shuxue heard the screams and decided not to leave. So the three masters and servants turned around and walked to the lotus pond again, looking at the screams with surprise on their faces.
The little maid asked repeatedly: "What happened?"
One of the little maids looked pale and pointed downwards, unable to speak a complete sentence, while Hua Shuyun leaned on the bridge railing like crazy and shouted: "Mother, mother."
After she finished yelling, she shouted to the woman beside her: "Hurry, find someone quickly."
The little maids immediately dispersed in all directions, some looking for someone, and some desperately pulling flowers and clouds by the lotus pond. Soon the people in the Hua Mansion were alarmed, and the eldest lady Yan in Huazhuang also returned.
The old lady was alarmed and led her people over. At this time, the servants of the Hua Mansion fished out the people from the lotus pond. It was the third lady.
Hua Shuyun suddenly started crying like crazy. She cried until her heart was broken and she was in pain.
After Huazhuang and the old lady appeared, their faces were also full of shock. They didn't know why this happened. This kind of thing had never happened in the Huazhuang family. The third lady did not stay in her own yard at night and ran to
What is this lotus pond for?
Huazhuang looked at everything in front of him with a face full of surprise. At this moment, Hua Shuyun raised his head bitterly, looked at Hua Shuxue, and screamed heartbreakingly.
"Hua Shuxue, it must be you, it must be you who harmed my mother, right? Otherwise, why would you come to this lotus pond if you didn't sleep at night?"
As soon as Hua Shuyun finished speaking, all the people gathered around the lotus pond at Hua's house looked at Hua Shuxue.
Huazhuang's face looked gloomy. Although Hua Shuxue recently made people afraid to offend her, if Hua Shuxue really did this, he would not spare her.
The old lady and others all looked at Hua Shuxue. Hua Shuxue didn't expect that the target was suddenly pointed at herself. The reason why she pretended not to know before was that she was afraid that the target would be pointed at herself. She didn't expect that it was still pointed at herself now. What exactly was it?
Did the person who harmed the third lady intentionally kill her and then put the blame on her, or did he accidentally throw her into the lotus pond.
Huazhuang said in a deep voice: "Hua Shuxue, what is going on? Why did you come to this lotus pond so late at night without sleeping?"
Hua Shuxue looked innocent and said calmly: "I don't know what happened. I just couldn't sleep, so I went out for a walk. Can this be considered as harming others? This kind of harm requires evidence."
Huazhuang was speechless for a moment, but Hua Shuyun ignored any evidence and screamed sadly and desperately: "If it's not you, who else? It must be you. Today I thought you were so kind that you helped my mother."
Dear, I didn’t expect that it was because I wanted to harm her.”
Hua Shuxue was quite speechless, her face was dark, and she coldly reminded Hua Shuyun: "What did I harm her for? I have no grudges with her, and I have no grudges. Am I going crazy because I want to harm her?"
Her eyes were filled with frost as she spoke. The matter of the third lady might be related to her life experience, so she also wanted to find out who harmed the third lady. She must give the deceased an explanation. She would not let go of the person behind it.
Looking at the third lady who was placed on the ground, Hua Shuxue stared at the person on the ground, and then
He walked over and examined the third lady carefully. Soon his eyes fell on the third lady's neck, and the bruises on the left and right sides were clearly exposed. Hua Shuxue squatted down, inspected carefully, and then coldly
's opening.
"Father, you can report it to the officials. They will find out when they come. The third lady did not fall into the lotus pond and died. She was strangled to death. You can tell by looking at the two bruises on her neck. In addition,
She has been thrown into this lotus pond for at least an hour, and my daughter just came out for a while,"
After Hua Shuxue finished speaking, she called behind her: "Xiao Rui."
She had seen Xiaorui coming over earlier. This place was not far from Nuanxue Pavilion. They were naturally alarmed by such a big movement. When they heard Hua Shuxue's cry, they quickly came out to report it.
"Reply to the master, less than half an hour after the eldest lady came out, the slave opened the door in person. The eldest lady said she couldn't sleep, so she took Sister Hongluan and Sister Qingluan out for a walk."
Hua Shuxue stood up, then glanced at everyone in the Hua family, and finally said with certainty: "The third lady was strangled to death and then thrown into the lotus pond. I think the person who harmed her must be someone from the Hua family.
So all father has to do is report it to the officials, and the officials will definitely find out who did it, and they will soon know who did it."
As soon as Hua Shuxue finished speaking, everyone looked at Huazhuang. Huazhuang's whole face was green. But when they heard Hua Shuxue talking about reporting to the official, their eyes flickered, and then they quickly made a decision and ordered the housekeeper.
Fu Hai: "Immediately carry the third lady back, change into clean clothes first, and then put her in the coffin. Tomorrow it will be announced that she slipped and fell into the water and died."
As soon as Huazhuang finished speaking, the housekeeper Fuhai took the order and took his own people to do the work.
The third lady's daughter Hua Shuyun didn't expect that Huazhuang would issue such an order. How could she be willing to do so? She screamed to stop others from touching the third lady's body, and then said to Huazhuang: "Why, why do you treat your mother like this?
She was killed by someone. Why didn't father report it to the official? If he didn't report to the official, he would not be covering up the person who killed his mother. No, my daughter doesn't agree, father."
It's a pity that Huazhuang is the minister of the Ministry of War and a popular person in the eyes of the emperor. How can he let such a scandal in the house leak out? I'm afraid that this matter will be settled in the end. At this moment, Hua Shuxue actually sympathizes with Hua Shuxue.
Yun, at the same time, was quite speechless about Huazhuang, but this matter involved her, and the third lady was killed properly, so she would not sit idly by and do nothing. Even if there was no government, she would investigate this matter.
Yes.
After hearing Hua Shuyun's words, Huazhuang's face darkened, and he ordered the maid: "Take the third young lady back to me and lock her in the house properly. I will handle this matter as a father. Even if this matter is in the Hua family,
I will also get to the bottom of it."
Hua Shuyun didn't care. She kept screaming: "Father, father."
But no one paid attention to her, and she was dragged down by the two little maids. Who dares not to obey the master's order? Huazhuang is still very dignified in the Hua family.
Fuhai had already led the people to carry down the body of the third lady. Huazhuang glanced around and finally gave a deep order: "If I find out what happened today, I will definitely punish him severely. And if anyone does it,
If this matter spreads out, don’t blame me for being cruel and ruthless."
"Yes, sir."
A gust of wind blew by the lotus pond. Everyone was trembling with fear. They felt the cold air coming up from the soles of their feet. Some timid people couldn't help but look around. They always seemed to feel that someone was staring at them in the dark. It was so scary.
ah.
Finally, Huazhuang ordered: "Go back."
With a whoop, everyone dispersed and fled the lotus pond in a hurry.
In the end, only Huazhuang, Hua Shuxue, the old lady and the eldest lady Yan were left by the lotus pond.
Hua Shuxue led the two maids Hong Luan and Qing Luan to the front of Huazhuang, and said calmly: "Father is letting the tiger return to the mountain."
After she finished speaking, her eyes glanced at the eldest lady Yan. She had thought about it before and found that no one would do anything to the third lady except Yan, but Yan would really be in trouble because of what happened during the day.
To kill the third lady? Or is it because of something else? Hua Shuxue was puzzled. Besides, the third lady has not been promoted to the equal wife yet. As long as the Yan family does not agree, she will not be promoted to the equal wife.
, so it must be because of other things. Is it really related to her own life experience? If so, she must let the Yan family show her flaws and avenge the third lady. Hua Shuxue thought about crossing Huazhuang and preparing to leave.
But just after walking a few steps, I suddenly heard a scream not far away, and then roared like a wolf, accompanied by the screams of the servants of Hua Mansion.
Hua Shuxue stopped, her eyebrows twitched, then she stopped and looked not far away.
With an ugly look on his face, Huazhuang ordered his servant to go and see what was going on. The man took the order and ran over quickly.
The servant who went to check soon came back and reported to Huazhuang: "Return to the master. It's the young master. The young master seems to be in a daze. He doesn't pay attention to anyone. He bites whoever he catches. No one dares to approach him now."
.”
When Huazhuang heard this, his whole face turned dark, he turned around and walked forward. The old lady was also anxious and hurriedly followed.
This Hua Yizhu is a male member of the Hua family. Huazhuang and the old lady are naturally the most wary ones. When they heard that Hua Yizhu was stunned, they were naturally worried.
A cold light flashed in Hua Shuxue's pupils, and she quickly said: "Father had better send someone to protect Zhu'er."
Hua Yizhu's seizure in the middle of the night was probably related to the death of the third lady. Maybe he saw how the third lady was strangled to death, so he bit people like crazy and saw his mother being killed with his own eyes.
Death is something not everyone can bear.
Huazhuang was stunned and didn't say anything, but he had an idea in his mind and walked straight in the direction of Hua Yizhu.
Mrs. Yan passed by Hua Shuxue, her eyes were cold and cold, like the eyes of a snake. When Hua Shuxue looked carefully again, she had already walked over.
Hong Luan spoke softly: "Master, let's go back, it's late at night."
I originally wanted to find out the master's life experience, but I didn't expect that the life experience was not found out, but it cost the third lady's life. I don't know who was so cruel that he killed her. It was really hateful.
Hua Shuxue nodded, and then led Hongluan and Qingluan back to Nuanxue Pavilion.
That night, many people in Hua Mansion couldn't sleep all night. Hua Shuxue didn't think too much and went to sleep after returning. Let's investigate the death of the third lady later. The person who harmed her will definitely be very careful not to reveal any lies.
of.
But the next day, it was not very bright yet, and a green-white dark light faintly penetrated into the room, and Hong Luan was heard walking in and reporting to her in a low voice.
"Master, it's not good. Something happened to the young master of the Hua family. Something happened to him too?"
"What?" Hua Shuxue woke up with a start and quickly got up from the bed. Something happened to the little devil Hua Yizhu. Although that guy has always been unpleasant, she doesn't care about children. Now
When I heard that something happened to Hua Yizhu, I actually felt a little distressed.
"Is he okay?"
She had previously instructed Huazhuang to send people to protect Hua Yizhu, so why would anyone hurt him?
"I heard that he also died. He slipped and fell into the lotus pond where the third lady died. By the time people found him, he was already out of breath."
"Such a coincidence."
Hua Shuxue really couldn't believe this. Why did two people die in the lotus pond? It was really evil. She thought about it while getting dressed and prepared to go see the little devil. No matter what, they were still famous.
For the sake of her brother and sister, it was right for her to go and pay homage to him.
Hong Luan was waiting for Hua Shuxue. At this time, the Hua family was shrouded in deathly silence. The entire mansion was filled with the smell of death. Two people died overnight, and they both died in the lotus pond, so the whole Hua family
The people in the mansion had a shadow over the lotus pond, and various theories were circulated in the flower mansion, making people panic.
Hua Shuxue led people all the way there, and heard crying in the distance, still Hua Shuyun's crying. This woman lost her mother overnight, and now her younger brother is also dead. How can she not be sad, so
She cried until she passed out several times, and then cried again when she woke up. In the past, she could rely on her mother and her brother, but now she has lost all her support. Who will love her in the future? Count on Huazhuang.
It's impossible for Dad.
Huazhuang didn't sleep all night. The old lady fell asleep near dawn, and the eldest lady Yan was also there. Her eyes were swollen and she had obviously cried.
When Hua Shuxue arrived, there was a lot of mourning in the inner room. In addition to Hua Shuyun, many servants of the Hua family also shed tears. To be honest, if only the third lady died, everyone would not feel sad. Now even
The young master is dead, and everyone is not only scared and terrified, but also sad.
The little Hua Yizhu slept in the coffin above the hall, peaceful and quiet, without the slightest bit of unhappiness. This guy left at ease, without any resentment, and left happily. Did he know that,
How sad this living person is, especially since he is the only male in the Hua family. How sad are the old lady and the master?
Hua Shuxue was thinking in her heart, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind. She quickly looked at the Star Soul Ring in her hand, and then looked at Hua Yizhu.
Xiao Jiu died of drowning at first, and now Hua Yizhu also died of drowning. Xiao Jiu died at the age of nine, and Hua Yizhu was also nine years old, and their auras are very similar. In this case, why not let Xiao Jiu die from drowning?
Jiu Dai Hua Yizhu was reborn and lived in the Hua family. Thinking of this, Hua Shuxue curled her lips slightly, and then awakened Xiao Jiu in the Star Soul Ring. Recently, she has not let Xiao Jiu appear.
Even if he was afraid that someone would hurt him, it would be a good thing if he could be reborn through Hua Yizhu's body. Anyway, Hua Yizhu no longer exists now.
But whether you can be reborn now depends on whether the magnetic fields of the two people match. If they match, Xiao Jiu's soul can get into Hua Yizhu's body. If it cannot get into the physical body, it means that the magnetic fields do not match, and she will not be able to get into Hua Yizhu's body again.
There is nothing you can do if you have the intention.
Xiao Jiuyi in the Star Soul Ring was overjoyed when he heard Hua Shuxue's words. He responded excitedly. In fact, he really wanted to stay with his sister all the time. It's great to have such an opportunity now, no matter what.
, he always wants to try.
As soon as Hua Shuxue heard Xiaojiu's words, she opened the Star Soul Ring and released Xiaojiu from the ring.
Above the hall, the pink and cute Xiao Jiu stood next to Hua Yizhu's coffin, looking left and right, very curious, and then stretched out her hand to touch Hua Yizhu's face, looking at Hua Shuxue with a raised eyebrow and a smile: "
Sister, he looks similar to me."
Hua Shuxue nodded, and then told him: "Quickly try it."
