Chapter 19 Private meeting in the dark night
Xue Yueying brought Xue Sui into Liuli Pavilion. The girl took some clothes, closed the door, and came out in a panic.
"Search through your clothes and leave a token of any kind."
Qingzhu nodded: "I told Qinghong, don't worry, girl."
Xue Yueying was not at ease. Even though it was such a cool weather, she felt like she was covered in sweat. She took out her handkerchief and wiped her forehead several times.
"Don't let her figure it out."
Qingzhu responded.
Soon, the girl Qinghong opened the door, holding the clothes Xue Sui had changed, and nodded to Xue Yueying from a distance.
Qingzhu said: "Girl, will Mr. Gu come?"
Xue Yueying hummed: "He dares not to come."
Qingzhu sighed, "Girl is really willing, is it easier for Miss Six?"
Xue Yueying couldn't help but frown deeply.
Of course she didn't want to have the same husband as Xue Sui, and asked her to be an equal wife.
This was just a stopgap measure on her part.
This shows her generosity and saves her reputation for stealing her sister's marriage.
Second, in the name of being an equal wife, he calmed down the dissatisfaction of Gu Jie's mother, so that she would not be punished by her mother-in-law after she married.
Thirdly, she really didn't want Xue Sui to go to Prince Duan's Mansion.
There was a strong consciousness telling her that Xue Liu would probably be favored by King Duan. When the time comes when she flies up a branch and becomes a phoenix, it will be obvious who looks at whose face.
But it was different when Xue Liu married into the Jingyuan Hou Mansion.
Under her nose, she has Gu Jie's favor. Xue Liu is like a grasshopper after autumn. He will always be stepped on by her, just like back then, and he can't stand up...
It can be said that it achieves multiple things with one stone.
Now that Princess Duan has returned home, it is confirmed that she has feelings for Gu Jie and is having an affair. Then, the dirty one is Xue Liu, and their identities will be switched. Xue Liu becomes a lowly woman who robbed her husband, and she is the victim.
Once the deal is done, the eldest sister will no longer be able to carry Xue Liu into the palace, and all the glory and wealth will have nothing to do with her.
"Four girls."
Xue Yueying heard the sound and looked over.
After changing his clothes, Xue Liu seemed to be a different person. The rustling light skirt is gathered into a willow shape at the waist, standing tall and slender under the independent eaves.
Ten years ago she was very stubborn and never said a word when she was beaten or scolded. Now she is smiling and is polite to everyone she meets.
Xue Yueying also put on a smile, stepped forward and took her hand, "Let's go, let's have dinner. Don't take it to heart just now. The eldest lady can't do everything properly in the palm of her hand. In the backyard of this house, you have to give in." I, I will let you do it without losing your dignity.”
Xue Sui smiled, "The fourth girl is right."
The two people returned to the table talking and laughing.
Xue Yuelou looked up at her and said nothing.
Xue Sui seemed to have forgotten the unpleasantness just now, and ate generously. When the banquet was over, he whispered a thank you beside Xue Yuelou and led the girl back to Lixiangyuan.
Xue Ji had no status and could not sit at the family banquet table, so Xue Sui accompanied her to another simple meal.
The mother and daughter talked for a while, and Xue Ji's throat felt hard when she heard Ruyi talking about what happened at the family banquet.
"Sixth sister, you have been wronged."
He added: "If you endure it for a while longer, when you get to the palace, if you have the prince's mercy and have a son and a half daughters by your side, you will have someone to rely on for the rest of your life."
Xue Sui raised his eyes and looked at her carefully: "Back then, when you followed Xue Qingzhi, did you think this way?"
Xue Ji was stunned, her red eyes filled with tears.
Think back then, when she danced around the capital, how many celebrities in the capital attracted the following?
The mother in the pavilion was also spoiled by her, and she had already told her that she would choose a suitable husband to redeem her life. She fell in love with Xue Qingzhi because he had an outstanding appearance and was a son of an aristocratic family. She thought that he would be freed from his lowly status and could be trusted with him for the rest of his life. However, she never expected that the promise she made that night would become a thing of the past in the blink of an eye. She picked around and picked a fire pit.
"Sixth Sister, it's my mother's bad fate that has caused you so much trouble..."
She raised her sleeves to wipe her tears. Xue Sui couldn't bear to say any more, so he said a few words of relief and asked the girl Caijuan to take her to rest, and then they went back to their rooms.
Turning around, there is the moon above the sky.
"Girl, girl."
In the middle of the night, there was a knock on the door.
Xue Yueying did not fall asleep. She was lying on the bed fully clothed. She sat up when she heard the girl's footsteps.
"How's it going? Gu Lang has entered the house? Let's go, let's go to Lixiangyuan immediately to catch the traitor..." The door creaked open, Qingzhu held the lamp in his hand, his face full of doubts.
"Yes, it's the master of Biwuyuan. There's a thief in the house."
What? Xue Yueying's face changed with fear, "This Gu Lang is so confused that he can't tell the difference between Biwu Courtyard and Lixiang Courtyard?"
-
In the night wind, there was a lot of noise in the back house.
Biwu Courtyard is the courtyard where Princess Duan Xue Yuechen lived before she got married. She was still placed here when she returned to the province.
If there is a thief in Princess Duan's courtyard, how can we deal with it?
The slightest movement immediately alarmed the entire Shangshu Mansion.
Xue Qingzhi also quickly put on his clothes, stood up, and rushed from Aunt Zhao's room.
"Princess Duan is staying in the mansion for a short time. There are servants guarding her inside and outside. The security is tight. How can there be a thief?"
The nursing home also had a puzzled look on its face, "Young ones don't know either. Before I went to bed, I told each hospital to watch carefully..."
Xue Qingzhi's steps stagnated.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Go and send more people. We must get both the people and the stolen goods."
Xue Qingzhi thought in his heart: Prince Duan and the Crown Prince are not dealing with each other. This may be because the Crown Prince is deceitful and may cause some trouble while Princess Duan returns to her parents' home.
Unexpectedly, when he rushed to Bitongyuan with a group of nursing staff, he saw Mrs. Fu standing at the door with an embarrassed look on her face.
The two girls beside him were also at a loss, and their heads dropped to their chests.
Xue Qingzhi said with a sullen face: "What's going on? Has the little thief been caught?"
The dim lights illuminated Bitongyuan as bright as day.
The "little thief" who was stuck in the yard with his hands cut behind his back and didn't know what to do, looked at the people swarming in with an innocent face, and called out weakly.
"Aunt. Uncle..."
Xue Qingzhi was furious, "Why is it you?"
Mrs. Fu was furious and said, "Jinghui, what are you doing here?"
There was silence in the courtyard.
This Fu Jinghui is Fu's nephew.
If it's just a relative, that's it.
But before Xue Yuechen married into Prince Duan's Mansion, Mrs. Fu's natal family had the intention of marrying their eldest niece back to Yongding Marquis Mansion. At that time, the Xue family did not discuss marriage with Prince Duan. Xue Yuechen and Fu Jinghui had known each other since childhood. They were cousins and had a close relationship. Mrs. Fu believed that no one could deceive her daughter by marrying back to her natal family. When Fu Jinghui inherited the title in the future, then The daughter is also the mistress of the Hou Mansion, so she cannot suffer any loss.
Therefore, no one from the two families objected at that time, and Xue Yuechen acquiesced.
Later, the affairs of the court changed and Xue Yuechen was attracted by Concubine Xiao, so she gave up her thoughts.
But there are many people in Shangjing who know about this matter.
Now that Xue Yuechen is returning to her parents' home, Fu Jinghui is wandering into Bitong Courtyard at night. How can he not attract gossip?
Xue Qingzhi's face was livid, "How did you get in? Why didn't you alert anyone else?"
Fu Jinghui hesitated and couldn't make any sense.
Mrs. Fu was anxious and angry, "Princess, how is the princess..."
She hurried inside and saw the door on the steps creak open.
Xue Yuechen stood in the atrium wearing a silver-white fox fur brocade coat. His whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of silver frost. A few strands of hair were gently blowing in the night wind. His face was ugly and he said nothing.
Standing next to her were a girl and Xue Sui.
Mrs. Fu looked at her in astonishment.
Xue Qingzhi frowned: "Why is Sixth Sister here?"
Xue Sui smiled slightly, looked at the crowd illuminated by the fire, and said calmly: "I ate too much at the family banquet and couldn't sleep, so I came to see the princess for some personal words. My sisters were holding a candle and talking at night when they heard shouts of "catching the thief" outside. It’s broken... What, the thief has been caught?”
Xue Qingzhi nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the sixth sister is by the princess's side.
No matter how much the servants gossip, it is impossible to say that Princess Duan took her sister to have a private meeting with her foreign husband. It makes no sense...
The eldest sister's reputation has been preserved, but the culprit of this incident is unforgivable.
Xue Sui: If you want to watch a show, of course you have to be there first.
Xue Yueying:? ? ? There's a ghost!
