Chapter 75 Self-destruct
The fourth prince's feet hurt so much that he no longer dared to take advantage of Xiao Lingxiao. He left a few people here waiting for the officials in charge of this place to investigate the matter, and then asked Li Jingxuan to be carried into Xiao Lingxiao's carriage, and then the crowd rushed back to the imperial city.
Some guards sent Xiao Huanyu and Xiao Huanxue back to the Prime Minister's house, while Xiao Lingxiao's carriage was escorted by the fourth prince and went directly to the sixth prince's house. When the carriage stopped in front of the door, there was already a royal doctor waiting here. After a busy time, the imperial doctors finally checked Li Jingxuan's injury. The two wounds on his arm and abdomen shed a lot of blood. Thanks to the divine wolf stopping the bleeding for him, he saved his life. Fortunately, his abdomen did not hurt his internal organs. Li Jingxuan was lucky.
After learning this, Xiao Lingxiao got back into the carriage and returned to the Prime Minister's mansion, and the fourth prince did not stay after sending her back. He hurried to the palace to report the emperor about it.
When Xiao Lingxiao returned to Qingheyuan, it was already dark. The old lady and the first lady came to ask about the incident. Xiao Lingxiao asked Bao Ronger to answer them correctly. She quickly changed the bloody clothes and washed away the smell of blood.
The begonia next to the old lady was driven out of the Qinghe courtyard by Bao Ronger and hurriedly returned to the old lady's house. When she entered the inner room, she heard the old lady scolding harshly, "She is the meat that fell from me. Don't I feel sad? She's already like that. Do you have to put yourself in again!"
"No matter what she is, she is my sister. I will never let her be sent to that damn place!"
Begonia could hear that this was the voice of the third lady Xiao Huanxue, but Xiao Huanxue, who was usually cold, seemed to be much excited when she spoke today. Begonia is the eldest lady's maid. She always knows what happened in the house quickly. Today, a message came from the old lady that she was going to send Xiao Huanyu, who was paralyzed in a broken face, to the countryside to recover. In fact, everyone knew that the old lady was afraid that Xiao Huanyu would damage the reputation of the Prime Minister's mansion and would throw her out.
In the room, Xiao Huanxue's porcelain doll-like face has turned red. She stared and gritted her teeth and said to the eldest lady, "You are the prime minister's wife. You can't go against the old lady's will, but I don't care about the person I'm going to marry sooner or later. Since she was able to leave the blind and dumb Xiao Lingxiao in the Prime Minister's house, why can't she leave Huanyu now? If she really speaks, mother, don't worry about anything. I'll argue with her!"
As soon as she finished her words, she saw the eldest lady take a step forward and raised her hand to slap her fiercely.
After hitting Xiao Huanxue, the old lady tried too hard. She hurriedly held her waist with one hand, pressed the edge of the table next to her with the other, and gasped for a long time. Then she stared at Xiao Huanxue again and said angrily, "You have a lot of ability!" Sooner or later, you will not be from the Xiao family! Do you know that if you take the wrong step now, you may regret it for a lifetime! I raised your two daughters as a baby, but look at what you do! I told you not to touch that bitch. Have you heard? At this point, you still tell me that you won't be the Xiao family sooner or later. Don't be afraid! OK! If you're not afraid, just go! Look at what the old lady did to you!"
After the old lady roared, she frowned again. Seeing Xiao Huanxue covering her red and swollen cheeks and tears in her eyes, she tried her best to suppress her anger and sat on the chair with difficulty. It took a long time to continue, "The old lady, she is fine. At the beginning, she was blind and The dumb Xiao Lingxiao, that's because Xiao Lingxiao is Lu's daughter. Xiao Ranjun was taken away by your third cousin. Do you think the old lady doesn't know why? She could only leave Xiao Lingxiao. She was blind and did what the old lady wanted. The Prime Minister's mansion didn't care about raising a blind and dumb waste, but the daughter left by the master's wife was not dispensable.
"Is it dispensable to have a happy rain!"
Xiao Huanxue was delicate and smart. She was slapped by the eldest lady, which was enough to calm her down. She endured tears and the hot pain on her face, and was still desperately trying to save Xiao Huanyu's inevitable fate.
The eldest lady sighed, "Although Huanyu is my own sister, she is your own sister, but for the old lady and the Xiao family, she is a dispensable daughter. When she was fine, the Xiao family expected your sisters to marry powerful forces for the Xiao family and consolidate the future situation of the Xiao family. Now she doesn't have this value..." The eldest lady looked at Xiao Huanxue, "You are smarter than your sister. You must be able to figured out these things. Let's not stop anyone after the old lady speaks about Huanyu. Don't worry, my mother will send someone to take care of her.
At the end of the words, Xiao Huanxue was completely desperate. Without saying anything more, she turned around and left the room.
As soon as she went out, Xiao Huanxue saw the begonia crouching and hiding in the distance. Her eyes became as cold as before, and she slowly left.
When Xiao Huanxue left, Begonia could take a breath. At this time, the lady in the inner room asked loudly, "Is Begonia back?" Come in."
Begonia hit a thrill and knew that he was going to suffer again. She clenched her teeth and quickly walked into the inner room.
The old lady's face was still angry, but she spoke very gently. "Have you made it clear?"
Haitang nodded, "It is said that he was attacked by a gangster on the road. His Highness was seriously injured but saved his life. He didn't find Mr. Sanbiao. He was probably abducted by the gangster."
The old lady frowned when she heard the words and thought that she clearly confessed that she was going to kill Xiao Fengming. Why did they take him away? Didn't they keep an eye on Xiao Lingxiao's property?
When the eldest lady thought of this, she couldn't help but have an ominous foreboding. She was dedicated to dealing with Xiao Lingxiao, but she forgot that the huge amount of property in her hand would also be malicious. Two million taels of silver can do a lot of things, but the old lady has already sent someone to investigate carefully. In a short period of time, Xiao Fengming has squandered more than half of Xiao Lingxiao's 2 million taels of silver and bought a lot of industries. No one knows how much is left.
Those people took Xiao Fengming away to know the whereabouts of the silver from his mouth.
The old lady frowned and took a breath and found that it was understandable for them to do so, and the money made them go, which was much better than staying in Xiao Lingxiao's hands. It was not bad to think so.
Xiao Fengming fell into their hands and was bound to die. If Xiao Lingxiao lost such a helper, he must be in chaos. In addition, the things lost in the palace are related to Xiao Lingxiao and Xiao Fengming, so that the eldest lady's early arrangement is appropriate.
Thinking that Xiao Lingxiao would soon disappear from her eyes, the old lady's mood suddenly improved a lot. He stood up supporting his heavy body and said to Begonia, who rushed forward to help him, "Take out my coat tomorrow and take good care of it, and also take out the gorgeous clothes that have just been sent back a few days ago. Go to the housekeeper's place and ask him to call out a carriage for me to install a cushioned thick blanket.
"Madam, this is..."
"I'm going to the palace to visit my family."
"To visit relatives in the palace?"
In the inner room of Qinghe Courtyard, Xiao Lingxiao wiped her still dripping hair with a soft cloth and listened to Bao Ronger say all the things she heard quietly under the window of the old lady.
The dearness mentioned by the eldest lady should refer to the noble concubine Qi. Concubine Qi was originally a distant relative of the Qi family. Because she was beautiful, she was selected and sent to the palace. Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the palace, she got the holy pet, and then gave birth to the eldest prince and the second prince for the emperor. Now in the palace, although she is only a noble concubine at the age of 40, the emperor still has a good favor with her and can win the favor of the queen, so the influence of the noble concubine Qi in the harem is even far above that of the queen. This is actually one of the reasons why the Qi family has been stable for so many years. In addition, the eldest prince and the second prince have already married and have children with the eldest clan. Compared with the fourth prince and others, the two of them are more normal and have received the support of many courtiers.
Xiao Lingxiao thought of the things flowing out of the palace, and he didn't know whether the eldest lady got those things with the help of the power of the Noble Concubine of Qi. If this matter is really related to the Noble Concubine of Qi, what benefits can she get from it now?
Wanting to know what happened in the harem, Xiao Lingxiao naturally thought of Xuan. Xuan was hit hard by a word by the wolf last time. When he left, he didn't say where he was going. However, with the divine wolf, Xiao Lingxiao is not afraid that he can't find him. Xiao Lingxiao asked Bao Ronger to go back to her room to rest. She called out the divine wolf and let it cast a spell to take her to see Xuan.
The divine wolf cast spells, and in the blink of an eye, Xiao Lingxiao appeared in a Zen room.
Although it was late at night, Xuan was still reading with a candle. He only felt a strange breath suddenly coming. As soon as he looked up, he saw Xiao Lingxiao, who had been thinking about it.
Xiao Lingxiao's dark hair was not wiped dry and scattered obediently. She was only wearing simple clothes. Although it was not exposed, it was completely different from the usual appearance of her gorgeous clothes. Xuan was stunned to look at her who appeared out of thin air and almost forgot to breathe.
"Ying...Yingxiao?"
Xiao Lingxiao walked to the table with a smile and whispered, "You have returned to Fali Temple. Fortunately, you haven't slept yet, are you reading?"
Xuan Wenyan hurriedly put down the book in his hand, got up and came to Xiao Lingxiao, and looked at her again. Xuan has seen many boudoir women, especially those rich girls. How could one appear in front of men so untily?
The thin clothes showed Xiao Lingxiao's figure. Although her body was still so petite, it looked a little fuller than when she fell in front of the door of Fali Temple. The slanted skirt outlines the lines of her snow-white neck and chest. Between the ups and downs of breathing, the concave and convex places loomed...
After Xuan came to his senses, he found that the Zen room had fallen into a silence. He suddenly became inexplicably nervous and said, "I heard that Feng Ming has returned to the wolf land. Lingxiao, you came here for this, didn't you?
Xiao Lingxiao shook his head with a wry smile and thought to himself, he would pay more attention to his image in the future, so as not to scare the monk like this again...
