Chapter 4 The culprit
"Open the door!" Before the sky was clear, I heard the sound of knocking on the door.
Murong Xun opened her eyes, and there was a faint smile in her thick ink-like eyes. She got up and put on a dress to open the door.
As soon as the door was opened, it was pushed vigorously, and then a woman led several maids and squeezed in, afraid that something would be missed when she entered the door later.
Murong Xun rubbed his eyes and asked respectfully, "What can I do for you?"
The woman is Chen, the steward of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Murong Xun looked at the green bracelet on her wrist and smiled gently at the corners of her mouth. At this time, Chen stared at Murong Xun indifferently and commanded several maids behind him and said, "Search, search carefully!"
Several maids went forward as if they were competing for favor, palmed the lamp, turned over the box and cabinet, and began to search. At this time, Chen took a look at Murong Xun and said faintly, "There is a dress in the clothes sent earlier. The lady is tied with a lucky jade pendant. The maid carelessly forgot to take it off. I didn't find it in the clothes I took back today. Your wife's clothes are handled by you. That's my wife's favorite, so she sent me to you to see if it fell on you!"
Murong Xun smiled, stood aside with his fists, and said with a smile, "You have to look carefully!"
After a long time, the maid shook her head at Chen with a disappointed face. At this time, Chen's face darkened and looked at a little maid beside him with some majesty. The little maid was stunned and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "It's impossible. Look carefully. I put it under the pillow with my own hands!"
Chen's face changed. She stared at the little girl, raised her hand and slapped her. She scolded, "It turned out that you stole your lady's jade pendant and wanted to blame others!" She turned back to Murong Xun and said coldly, "Excuse, let's go!"
With that, several people left with the little girl who stayed in place, and suddenly the cabin became silent again.
Murong Xun looked at the ordinary jade pendant lying in the palm of her hand, but the shape was strangely distinguishable at a glance. This was what she had just got from Chen's body. Chen was the personal maid of the fourth aunt in those years, and it was because of her shameless betrayal that the fourth aunt had an unspeakable injustice.
You should also try all kinds of flavors!
............
The next day.
The first lady took a faint look at Chen, who was trembling, and said, "It's useless! Go down!"
Chen hurriedly retreated as if he had received an amnesty.
At this time, the third aunt, who was playing a small fan for the eldest lady, said puzzledly, "Why bother to deal with such a little bitch. Why don't you just invite someone to kill him directly?
The eldest lady glanced at the third aunt and said, "There are so many pairs of eyes in the house, and the master still needs an explanation." Then he smiled deeply and said, "Death is sometimes a relief for some people. The most painful thing is that you can't survive or die."
"Is there anything going on in the young master's place?" The eldest lady asked, and there was a beautiful maid about sixteen or seventeen years old on her right. The maid thought about her words and said, "The young master still reads poems and paints every day, and raises flowers and grass. When you are interested, you can go to the racecourse to ride a horse!"
The old lady listened faintly, and there was no joy or anger on her face. For a long time, she looked back at the little maid, patted the table next to her with her right hand fiercely, and shouted angrily, "There are many young people who come and go with each other, talking about the government and dealing with current malpractices. What does he want to do? Does a cheap bastard want to be successful? When will Daxiang's country be the turn of these three fingers! Even you little prostitute dare to hide such important things from me! When I'm dead?"
The little maid suddenly turned pale. She hurriedly knelt down and cried, "Madam, forgive me. The maidservant was fascinated for a moment. The maidservant did not dare to deceive the lady, and the maidservant dared not dared to do it anymore!"
The old lady waved her hand boredly and said in a vicious tone, "Since I have learned to lie, it's useless to keep this tongue!" Come on, cut her tongue and drive her to the stable. Since you are in love with the young master, give you to the servant who serves him, so that you can see the young master every day!"
The little maid was so scared that she almost fainted. She almost forgot to beg for mercy and was dragged out by several strong women. Soon after, I heard a sad cry from the outer courtyard. A woman came forward with a mahogany tray and lifted the white cloth. It turned out to be the bloody tongue of the little maid who had just been cut off.
The third aunt said "ah" and suddenly turned pale. She wiped the corners of her lips with Juanzi and took a few steps back quietly. Only the old lady took a look without changing her face and said lightly, "Feed the dog!"
Soon after, another woman came into the house and said, "The little hooves of Ziyan didn't want to be given to the horse. He just hit the wall and committed suicide!"
The first lady picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. Suddenly, she thought about something and said to the woman standing in front of her, "I heard that the young master cherishes his horse. You have to find a cautious person to serve him. I think Murong Xun's girl is also idle, just take good care of her!"
"Yes!"
When the servant retreated, the third aunt said, "The young master's horse is called Chi Mo, but he is a fierce man. The stranger is generally not allowed to approach. The last time, Shaner wanted to ride it, and was almost fell off the horse by the hateful beast."
The first lady smiled meaningfully, "I hope Chi Mo won't let me down!"
The third aunt turned her eyebrows and suddenly stroked her hands and smiled, "In this way, the young master will not be able to get rid of it!" Kill two birds with one stone, sister, you are really smart!"
While the two were talking, they saw Chuntao running anxiously and said anxiously, "Madam, the second young master quarreled with the eldest princess's son in the eastern suburbs, and then the two punched each other, and the second young master beat him to death!"
"Ah!" The old lady screamed and fell on the teacher's chair with a pale face, "My son, how can it be like this!" She looked at Chuntao and asked, "Where is the prince now?"
"It was taken away by the governor of the capital and imprisoned in prison. Madam, you have to find a way!"
The third aunt was too surprised and said, "I heard that people who enter the prison will peel off their skins even if they don't die. Xuan'er has been a good child since he was a child, and he will suffer that kind of hardship there!"
" Shut up!" The eldest lady put one hand on the edge of the table, "It's better for him to die there, and it's better for our mother and son to die, so that it will be what you want!" After straightening her hair, the old lady forced her to calm down and immediately ordered Chuntao, "Get the car quickly. I'm going to the prison!"
............
"Is this Chi Mo?" I saw a jujube red horse bowing its head and eating grass in the stable in front of it. Its long mane is scattered, and every muscle on its body is full of Peng Bo's strength. It is so healthy and solemn, like a long-term general, proud and cold.
"Brush Chi Mo's brush first! Clean the stable and replace it with clean grass!" A servant pointed to the bucket, brush and other utensils not far from the stable, "Chi Mo's temper is not very good. Be careful!" After saying that, the servant left.
Murong Xun looked at the horse in front of him, and his heart was full of admiration, which aroused the pride that had not been aroused for a long time. He remembered those hot-blooded years. "Such a good horse should be majestic on the battlefield, and should not be a plaything in this rotten house!"
Chi Mo is like a well-bred teenager, chewing the forage gracefully, but with indifferent alienation. He disdained the woman who looked at him. The woman leaned in from its right with a bucket and gently patted it on the neck. And Chi Mo sounded his nose arrogantly, which was regarded as a greeting.
When Murong Xun saw that Chi Mo was still obedient, he picked up the brush to clean the mane for it. At this time, Chi Mo, who was still obedient, suddenly hissed manicly, and the horse's hoof walked uneasily. When Murong Xun saw this, the alarm bell in his heart was loud and he hurriedly took a step back. However, Chi Mo took the lead in making the move. He raised his hind leg and kicked her.
This foot is very strong. According to Murong Xun's light skill, it is easy to avoid it, but there are other working grooms in this stable. She doesn't want to attract people's attention at this time. She just suffered Chi Mo's kick, but slightly deflected and has not been hurt.
At this time, Chi Mo became more and more manic, raising his two front hoofs high, and the hissing sound was even more sad. Murong Xun quickly rolled aside so that he would not be hurt by Chi Mo's hooves. However, Chi Mo seemed to be stimulated and became angry. He wanted to escape from the shackles of the reins. The pillar tied at one end of the rope shook fiercely, and the whole hut shook violently.
Seeing that Chi Mo's fury had broken the pillar and went to bed with a "pop" in the hut, Murong Xun jumped forward, grabbed Chi Mo's reins, and was brought out a few feet by it. The angry fierce horse raised his front hoof and was about to kick Murong Xun, who had been dragged on the ground for a while. She hid and missed her. Chi Mo was even more excited and continued to kick the woman under him. He was surrounded by indifferent grooms, but no one moved forward to save him.
Chi Mo's hoof fell again, and Murong Xun's murderousness appeared in his eyes. I'm afraid he wanted to kill the beast. The poison needle is hidden between the fingers, only when the beast goes crazy.
Just as the silver needle in Murong Xun's fingers was about to shoot out, a white shadow fluttered down, rode on Chi Mo's body, grabbed the horse's mane, and drove the horse's abdomen tightly. This move was unacceptable to the proud Chi Mo. It raised its horse's hoofs high and hiss resounded through the sky.
Murong Xun quickly put away the poison needle in his hand. At this time, he only felt a warm palm covering his shoulder. Murong Xun stiffened all over and quickly looked back and broke into a pair of warm eyes.
How to describe these eyes?
There is a warm and sincere care in the amber eyes, which makes people feel like they are bathed in the sun. When you were walking in the cold wilderness, someone sent you a cotton-padded jacket, a bowl of hot soup.
Or Murong Xun's induction was too cautious, which made the man half squat in front of her slightly stunned, and then an apologetic look rose in her eyes, "Is it because I'm too abrupt? Did I scare you?"
Murong Xun quickly shook his head and looked at the man's dress. He was afraid that he was a prince. He fell down and pretended to be scared by Chi Mo just now, and his shoulders were still shaking. "The maidservant has seen the prince!"
The man wore a moon-white brocade coat and looked more and more gentle. With a gentle smile, he picked up Murong Xun on the ground and said, "Have you been hurt by that beast?"
Murong Xun took a step back, pulled his arm out of the man's warm palm, and replied in fear, "The maidservant is fine. Thank you for your concern!"
The man smiled and looked back at the man in white riding on horseback. And the man in white had subdued Chi Mo, quickly jumped off the horse, handed over the reins to the groom who was rushing by, and said as he walked, "What's wrong with Chi Mo today? I don't even know him!"
The man still had a smile on his face, "Chi Mo, it should be drugged!"
