It was Chen time when I woke up the next day. After washing up, I ate some porridge and asked Baozi to invite the Jedi to come over.The Jedi naturally knew the purpose of my asking him to come, and told me what happened last night without any nonsense.

Not an hour after we left, Hua Jinlin, who was in Zuihualou and the top card in the storm, was taken into prison by soldiers who broke in suddenly. At the same time, a group of officers and soldiers also surrounded Washington. A group of men, women and children were thrown into prison.When the officers and soldiers were arresting people, they found a few letters in Mrs. Hua's study that hadn't been destroyed in time. The officer and soldier in charge opened the letters, his face changed drastically, and he presented the letters to the emperor overnight.At that time, the emperor's face was livid after reading the letter, and he ordered the governor of the capital to strictly investigate the people in Washington.

When the officers and soldiers were arresting people, several beautiful women in ragged clothes rushed out from the backyard and said that they were taken into the mansion by people from Washington. At the same time, many contraband were found in the treasury of Washington.Overnight, Washington, which once had power for a while, collapsed...

Hearing this news, I smiled happily.He got up and dusted off the hem of his clothes, leading the Jedi and others to the front hall.At this time, the news that the steward of the laundry room had revealed to Hua Lingshu had already arrived, and as soon as he entered the front hall, he saw people rushing around Hua Lingshu clutching handkerchiefs.At this moment, she doesn't have the heart to succumb to me, although she is surprised that I will come out and walk around, but she has no time to worry about it right now.He glanced at me and then turned his head to look at the door, then sat on a chair with an uneasy look.

I also ignored her disrespect, lifted up my clothes and sat down on the head, and asked with a smile: "What is Aunt Hua doing in the front hall early in the morning?"

Seeing my question, Hua Lingshu had no choice but to calm down and answer, "It's nothing, there are some things in the mansion that need to be decided by the master."

Hearing this, I hooked the corners of my mouth and didn't ask any more questions. I quietly looked at Hua Lingshu's anxious expression with my right hand resting on my cheek, and my heart was secretly refreshed.

Counting it, it has been nearly ten years since Hua Lingshu entered the Hou's Mansion. Because of her mother's early death, Hua Lingshu is in charge of most of the affairs in the backyard of the Hou's Mansion. This woman will never treat herself badly. There was no trace of age on her face, and she was dressed in water-white cloud satin like a young girl in her twenties.It's a pity that such a rich life can't satisfy her, and she wants to climb up, but she never thought about whether the decayed Washington Palace behind her would be worthy of her support if the Hou Mansion collapsed.

After sitting quietly in the front hall for half an hour, the old man came back with his official hat on his face.However, when he saw Hua Lingshu standing at the door, his originally elated expression suddenly sank.He walked into the front hall with his hands behind his back, and his face softened a little after seeing me.

"Master..." Hua Lingshu yelled, the circles of her eyes slowly turned red, and she seemed to feel pity for me.

The old man seemed a little impatient looking at her, and he didn't want to say anything else to her, so he said bluntly: "I know what you came to see me for, but I tell you that you want me to intercede for Washington. possible."

Hearing this, Hua Lingshu stepped forward and grabbed her father's sleeve, choked with sobs and said, "Master, how can my elder brother be unfavorable to the son? Someone must have wronged them. My father is too old to stand such a toss. Only you can help the Hua family at this time."

It's okay if Hua Lingshu didn't say anything. Hearing this, the old man let out a cold snort and shook off her hand, and took a step to the side.

"Wronged? Then Hua Jinlin admits that your elder brother Hua Mingqi personally ordered someone to kill Ah Yan, how could he be wronged! And you!" After speaking, the old man gave Hua Lingshu a look, and said sharply: "Do you think I really don't know anything? Hua Lingshu, I ask myself that the Marquis Mansion has treated you well all these years, yet you actually did such a thing!"

Hua Lingshu was not at ease in her heart, she was startled when she saw her father pointing the finger at her, she covered her chest with her hands, her eyes were red, and she wanted to continue to pretend to be stupid: "Master, what are you talking about, why can't I understand it? "

Seeing Hua Lingshu pretending to be stupid, I smiled lightly beside me, and raised my voice and said to the steward outside the door: "Unexpectedly, Aunt Hua usually doesn't leave the gate at all times, but this news is well-informed? It doesn't matter if you don't understand, I'll find People talk about it and you understand. Steward Yuan, go and bring out Mama Li who is being imprisoned in the firewood room, and ask her to explain to Aunt Hua."

Hearing the word 'Mama Li', Hua Lingshu trembled again, her brows were slightly frowned with a look of confusion.

After a while, Mama Li was brought up, and when she saw my father and me, she fell to her knees with a plop and confessed repeatedly.

"Master, young master, this old slave has already explained everything. It's Madam, no, no, it was Aunt Hua who gave this old slave ten taels of silver for me to send news to Washington. But this old slave can't read a single word, so Aunt Hua gave it to me. What kind of news, this old slave does not know at all. Please forgive me, this old slave will not dare to do it again next time. It is the old slave who sees money and is blinded by dog ​​blood to do such stupid things. Please, master Please forgive me this time." After speaking, Mama Li clapped her mouth.

After listening to Li's mother explaining everything, Hua Lingshu looked at her and said sharply: "What nonsense are you talking about, what time will I give you ten taels of silver to pass on the news?"

Seeing that Hua Lingshu was still stubborn, I wasn't in a hurry. I slowly moved the tea leaves in the cup with the tea cover, and said, "Don't be too quick to deny, Mama Li, you don't know that there are always people you know, so bring them here. Let them help Aunt Hua recall what she has done."

Fan Yu responded and turned around to leave the door. After a while, more than a dozen maids and servants were brought to the front hall. When they saw me and my father, they knelt down.

Seeing these people, Hua Lingshu staggered and sat on the chair behind her with a pale face, trembling slightly, trying to restrain her fear.

Seeing this, I straightened my body and pointed at the people kneeling on the ground, looked at Hua Lingshu and asked, "Aunt Hua, these people are all eyeliners planted in my and my father's yard, Aunt Hua is old, My memory is not very good, do you need me to tell you who they are one by one?"

Knowing that what she had done could no longer be concealed, Hua Lingshu simply stopped pretending.Close your eyes and take a deep breath, and then open your eyes, with a smile on the corner of your mouth, and ask me: "So what if I leaked your whereabouts that day? I just want you to die so what?"

"It's not very good, but it's just repaying the other person in the same way. You want to use Washington to kill me, and I want you to watch Washington be destroyed in your hands." After that, I laughed softly I got up, then seemed to think of something, and hurriedly continued: "Oh, yes, Aunt Hua doesn't know, since I came back from the injury, I have switched all the messages you sent. Washington can end up today, Speaking of which, Aunt Hua deserves a lot of credit."

Hearing this, Hua Lingshu completely collapsed, screaming and rushing towards me.Looking at her baring teeth and claws, I smiled contemptuously and stretched out my hand to block Fan Yu who wanted to block me. When Hua Lingshu rushed to me, I suddenly stretched out my foot and kicked her out.

Hua Lingshu is just a weak woman, how can she resist the pain of my foot and flew out screaming.I got up and walked to Hua Lingshu, bent down, stared at her intently and said in a cold voice: "I wanted to do this a long time ago, Hua Lingshu, you could have a good life, but it's a pity that you don't know how to cherish it." No wonder others. I kicked you for my father, you owe me, use your cheap life to pay back!"

As I said that, I got up and shouted: "Come on, drag Aunt Hua out, and die with a stick!"

Hua Lingshu's mournful screams came from outside the door, I looked up at the stiff-faced old man, and finally couldn't help asking: "Father, you actually don't want her to die, do you?"

The old man was silent for a moment, then sighed feebly. "I don't want her to die. In fact, I have owed her all these years. Before your mother passed away, she asked me to take good care of you. In order not to let you be wronged, I never gave her a child. I..."

"Father, I'm sorry." As I said that, I got up and knelt down in front of my father.Where did my father ever see me like this, he got up in surprise and wanted to help me up from the ground, I pushed his hand away and continued: "After that I don't know if it was a previous life or a dream, I just realized that I was so bad before. Sensible. I have thought about this confession for a long time. I know that you have worried a lot for me. I want to repent if I go the old way again. Dad, I know you feel sad, but keeping Hua Lingshu is always a disaster. She has been in the mansion for many years, and she knows a little about everything in the Hou mansion. I can't take the risk. If you keep her In the mansion, if she hooks up with the sixth prince like in her previous life, maybe all our efforts will be in vain. Dad, I don't want to let the previous thing happen again, so forgive my son for being cruel."

As I said that, I bowed deeply to my father.

Hearing my explanation, my father helped me up from the ground with red eyes, "Ayan, although I feel ashamed of her in my heart, I don't blame you. You did the right thing. Dad can't ruin the whole world just because of a moment of soft-heartedness." Anping Hou Mansion."

While speaking, Jedi said at the entrance of the front hall: "My lord, my little lord, Hua Lingshu has died."

Hearing this, my father tightened his hand on my shoulder, and then said in a deep voice, "Let's bury it generously."

The Jedi took the order to leave, and I looked back to see my father's tired face, knowing that he was uncomfortable, and knowing that it would be best for him to be alone at this time, so I got up and said goodbye.The old man nodded, picked up the official hat on the table and put it under his arm, and walked towards the backyard.

I walked out of the front hall and looked at the bloody Hua Lingshu who was tied to the stool and beaten, and clenched her fists.He looked up and glanced at the crowd below, and said in a cold voice: "I didn't care what you did before, but from now on, if anyone does anything that harms the Marquis's Mansion, he will never be forgiven if he is found out!"

After I finished speaking, I led the Jedi, and Fan Yu and the others strode away.
