"Master Beile, this servant is here to bring you water to wash up." It was a little girl who was used to waiting for Xianrong.
"It's still early, you go down first and come back later." Hongshi tried his best to make his voice not sound so unusual. After hearing the footsteps outside, he let out a sigh of relief, but the situation in the room remained the same.
It gave him a headache. If others saw it, they would think it was the murderer's face, and the murder weapon was also there. Even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he wouldn't be able to wash it away.
What should I do? What should I do? Hongshi walked around the house in a panic. After thinking for a long time, he picked up the dagger, gritted his teeth and wiped off the blood before hiding it on his body. This murderous weapon must not be seen by others.
You have to take it out quickly and find a place where no one is and throw it away.
Thinking like this, Hongshi put on his clothes and walked out of the wing as if nothing had happened. After walking a few steps, he saw a turtle slave coming towards him. He smiled and said, "Master Beile, you're awake, where are you going?"
Hongshi suppressed the nervousness in his heart and said calmly: "I haven't been to the house for a few days. I'll go back and have a look. I'll come back later." Before the turtle slave could speak, he added: "Miss Xiangrong is a little tired.
I want to sleep a little longer, so don’t disturb her."
Gui Nu agreed wholeheartedly, but after Hongshi walked away, he remembered the reason why he came here. This morning, an uncle named Xiangrong to go to his house to sing and accompany him in the evening. However, Xiangrong has been hired by Lord Beile recently.
Yes, I have to come over and ask first to see if I can go.
Seeing that Hongshi was almost at the door, Gui Nu hesitated for a moment, but decided to ask Xiang Rong first, who was so urgent that he had to answer quickly.
The turtle slave walked to the door and knocked several times but no one answered. Feeling surprised, he gently pushed the door open and looked inside.
Just when Hongshi stepped out of the gate of Yixiangyuan, a distorted cry came from inside, "Someone is coming! Someone is dead! Miss Xiangrong is dead, someone is coming quickly!"
The next moment, Yixiangyuan immediately became chaotic. Everyone rushed to Xiangrong's room. When no one was paying attention to him, Hongshi left Yixiangyuan as if he was running away. Until he stepped into the gate of Baylor Mansion, his heart
After feeling a little more settled, Hongshi turned to a river on his way back home and threw the dagger in his arms into it.
Everyone in the mansion was overjoyed to see Hong Shi coming back. At this time, Lan Ling also walked in from the outside. When he saw Hong Shi, he was a little surprised, but that was all. He walked over and bowed to Hong Shi, and then left.
Go, Hongshi stopped her and said, "Where did you go just now?"
"I went back to visit Ama." Lan Ling's words made Hongshi's eyes turn cold, "It seems that if I don't come back today, are you really going to destroy Yixiangyuan?"
"Master Baylor thinks so." Lan Ling ignored him, but Hongshi was not prepared to let her just deal with it. He took her hand and said, "I seemed to have said yesterday that you are no longer from Baylor Mansion.
My dear Fujin, what are you doing here? If you want to do something bad, take it to your Duke's mansion. I don't want to see you again!"
His words reminded Lan Ling of yesterday, of yesterday's merciless slap. He had devoted himself to her regardless of past grudges, but what he received in exchange was such treatment. It was really ridiculous to think about it.
She suppressed the sourness in her heart and said: "If you want me to leave, you can go to the palace immediately and report the matter to the emperor, and then ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to remove my name from the jade plate. But before that, I am still here.
My direct descendant Fujin, you have no right to drive me away!"
Hongshi pointed at the door of the house mercilessly and said: "If I say no, then it's no. Get out of here immediately!"
Hongshi's ruthlessness chilled Lanling's heart, and she was kicked out by him again and again in public. No matter how thick-skinned she was, she couldn't stay any longer. Moreover, Hongshi had always been sorry for her. She had the intention to compromise, but
Hongshi doesn’t accept this well!
The more Lan Ling thought about it, the sadder he became. He threw away Hong Shi's hand and said bitterly: "Okay, don't regret it!"
Following Lan Ling's movement, a stack of paper was thrown out from her sleeves and fell to the ground. Dingqing looked at it and saw that the pieces of paper were all banknotes worth thousands of taels, at least four to five thousand taels.
, white paper with black characters and red seal, Ling Hongshi was stunned on the spot. The next moment, his anger immediately rose, "Jiang Wife, how dare you steal the house's silver?"
"Am I stealing the money from the house?" Lan Ling's voice was surprisingly sharp, as if something was strangulating his neck. On the other side, a man named Fujin ordered someone to go to the accounting room to check.
Lan Ling didn't pick up the silver, but just stared at Hong Shi, with some bruises still visible on one side of her face, "Hong Shi, do you think I want to steal the silver from Baylor House and leave here?"
You really can imagine it, and it’s a shame that you can imagine it!” Before Hongshi could say anything, she had already said sharply: “You can now have someone check the accounting room to see if the money there is missing by a tael!”
Lan Ling's words made Hong Shi's heart tremble, but he was not sure. At this moment, someone said something in Xi Fujin's ear. The latter said: "Master Beile, I have already been seen by others.
There is a lot of money in the house, but my direct descendant Fujin has not used it."
"Then these silvers..." Hongshi paused, remembering that Lan Ling just said that she came back from the Duke's Mansion. Did she ask Yingge to get these silvers?
He wanted to ask, but didn't know how to ask. Just when he was struggling, Lan Ling said: "I borrowed this money from Ama. You spend all your time drinking and sleeping, sleeping in flowers and willows, and you can originally cover the expenses of the house for half a year."
You have spent more than half of my money. Yesterday I went to tell you that you
I also refused to listen. Do I really think that the people here and Yong Lin and others are hungry? Anyway, I am also the direct descendant of the mansion. I want to support this Baylor mansion, so I went to ask Amma to borrow five dollars.
Qianliang, Amma asked me where the bruises on my face came from, but I didn’t know.
Dare to tell him the truth, just say that I bumped into him accidentally, because I know that if I told him, Amma would never lend me money. Who did I do so much for, not for you, but
At the moment, it seems that it is really redundant. You just talk about me without asking anything.
Stealing taels of silver from the government." She breathed hard, trying to hold back the tears in her eyes, but the tears still fell down and dripped on the white paper with black characters and red seals. She gave up, gave up completely, Hongshi had no medicine.
It can be saved and turned into a pile of mud that cannot be stuck to the wall.
Thinking of this, she wiped away the tears on her face and said: "You want me to leave, don't you? Okay, I'll leave. From now on, whether you and the people in this Baylor Mansion live or die has nothing to do with me.
As for these five thousand taels..." She looked down at the pile of banknotes and said with a cold smile: "Think of it as buying off the last bit of friendship between you and me!"
