[Red Mansion] Ronghua Road of Mrs. Hou's Mansion

Jia Rui was originally a womanizer, he had been thinking about Sister Feng for a long time, since he had the opportunity today, how would he let it go?Therefore, after receiving the news from Ping'er, she was ecstatic and restless, just waiting for the night to meet Sister Feng.

He was secretly proud of himself, and held a handkerchief in his arms as a threat, but Sister Feng would not dare to play any tricks.Otherwise, he yells so loudly that everyone knows about it.It's late at night, the lonely man and the widow are in the same room, and they know what they are doing without even thinking about it.If Sister Feng still cared about the face of the Wang family, she could only commit herself to him.

The waiting time seemed extremely long, and finally when the appointed time came, he quietly went out while no one was prepared.

The letter from Ping'er was right. He saw a woman wearing a cap standing at the door, so there was no doubt that it was Ping'er.

Therefore, he didn't ask any more questions, knocked on the door, and went in.He was really happy in his heart, and immediately laughed out loud.The room was shrouded in darkness, and no one could be seen clearly, but it seemed that someone could be felt shaking in front of his eyes.He naturally thought that this was Sister Feng, so he would tear off his clothes and pounce on her regardless.

But who would have thought that it was all for nothing, and only heard a sound, as if someone had left.

He was anxious and panicked, but in the darkness, he couldn't find anyone, so he stretched out his hands and waved wildly, trying to catch someone.

He had clearly sensed someone just now, so why did he disappear? Could it be that Sister Feng deliberately played hide-and-seek with him for fun?

After finally getting the chance to get close to the beauty, he naturally wouldn't leave. Although he was anxious, he could only be patient and yelled 'beauty, cousin' while catching her lightly.

I searched for it for a long time, but to no avail.But he was tired, leaning against the door to rest, still chanting Sister Feng's name, he couldn't help wondering, could it be his illusion that Sister Feng hadn't come yet?

After a while, I heard a vibration behind me. It turned out that someone pushed the door.

He was a fool, his impatience had overwhelmed his reason, and he got up and opened the door without thinking much.

After opening the door, with the sparse light, he barely saw a woman in front of him, and he grinned.Just when she was about to hug the beauty into her arms, the beauty rushed forward by herself.

The warm and fragrant nephrite all of a sudden soothed an anxious heart, and at the same time there was a fire rising in his body, which made him even more impatient.He immediately dragged the beauty into the house, and began to undress, and couldn't help teasing out of joy.

But the beauty was very angry and struggled hard.

"You bastard, open your dog eyes, how dare you be rude to me!" Then he shouted, "Are you all dead, pull him away quickly."

But Jia Rui didn't listen, and continued to caress her body with his hands.

The people behind were dumbfounded.Didn't you come here to catch rape tonight? What's going on now?

Hearing Xu Xi's scolding, they reacted, rushed forward, and pulled Jia Rui up.

However, Jia Rui lost his balance and was pushed down by this random tugging.There was only a bang, followed by a scream, and there was no more sound.

Everyone was silent, and there was a deathly silence in the meditation room.

Xu Xi panted heavily, pulled the messy clothes, but still did not forget to look for Sister Feng.

Xu Xi said disgustedly: "Ask him, where is that bitch?"

After a long time, Jing Shui said in a trembling voice, "Gu...girl, he seems to be dead..."

Xu Xi turned pale with shock, "What did you say?"

"The servant just sniffed his breath, he seems... dead."

"Just now, the Taoist boy who got up early and was in charge of cleaning passed by there, and found the door of a Zen room was open. When he got closer, it turned out that the door was broken. Then he went in and found Jia Rui's body. After that, the whole Everyone in the Qingxu Temple knows it." Zhu Xiao's voice was crying, obviously frightened, "I didn't believe it at first, so I went to see it myself. There was blood on the back of the man's head. Rui himself. The Jia family has passed away now, and they are going to seek Taoist Master Qingxu for an explanation."

Feng Shi was terrified and took a step back.All the chairs and cups behind him fell to the ground.The cloth towel fell into the water basin, splashing a large splash of water, which wet her clothes.

"Dead, why did he die?" Feng's eyes widened, "Where's Xu Xi?"

Zhu Xiao said: "I heard that Miss Xu suddenly felt unwell last night, and she went down the mountain before dawn."

"Where's Mrs. Wang?" Mrs. Feng had a bad feeling.

"The servant did not see Mrs. Hou, only Jia Rui was alone."

Feng Shi panicked and murmured: "Impossible, impossible..."

Qing Zhu supported Feng Shi, and asked Zhu Xiao: "Has Mrs. Hou ever returned?"

Zhu Xiao's voice was as low as a mosquito ant, "I'm back."

Feng's heart sank to the bottom, she slumped down on the chair, and said in a deep voice, "I was fooled! What a cunning little fox."

Qingzhu said cautiously: "Madam, what do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean, of course Xu Xi failed! Otherwise, why would she not stay to watch the show, but hurried down the mountain?" Feng said bitterly, "I was put on by that bitch, and she also took the opportunity to help her." She got rid of Jia Rui with a good plan and a good method!"

"So, Mrs. Hou has been acting these days?" If this is the case, this patience and scheming are really astounding.

"Is there any other possibility?" Feng warned, "Just pretend not to know about this matter, and don't show your flaws in front of others."

Qing Zhu and Zhu Xiao shook their bodies, and said hastily: "Yes, servants, remember."

Mrs. Feng went to greet Madam Gu with her heart in mind, and she saw Sister Feng as expected. Compared with the previous few days, Sister Feng is in a radiant spirit today.

She helped the old lady out, and smiled sweetly, "Second Aunt, Third Aunt."

Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "You are the first one here again. Did you rest well last night? Last night, you slept in the middle of the night because of brother Ming's noise. Today, you were woken up before dawn. I arrived I'm still sleepy now. By the way, have you heard what happened last night?"

Sister Feng's face was indifferent, and she said casually: "I didn't sleep well the past few days. I was so sleepy last night that I didn't even hear the morning bell. It was already dawn when I woke up. What did Auntie say?"

Feng Shi clenched her hand tightly, the pain in her palm didn't make her lose her mind.Mrs. Wang is too good at putting on a show, and she is not guilty at all.

Liu looked at Feng and said, "Second sister-in-law, have you heard about it?"

Feng sighed, "How could I not have heard of such a big event, and it scared me away from the last bit of drowsiness. I went to see someone, and I heard that the master of the Jia family died so tragically that I couldn't even see it." Close it, thinking about it, there must be some grievance." Then he said to Sister Feng, "It's a good thing you didn't go, you can't sleep well, if you watch those scenes, you will have difficulty falling asleep for days and nights. "

Sister Feng's voice was calm, "What Second Aunt said is true. But, I'm still curious, what kind of grudge is it that has such a ruthless hand?"

"Many people have this question, but they have no way of knowing. Although Jia Rui is a branch of the Jia family, he can't die here without knowing why. Therefore, someone has already gone to Taoist Master Qingxu to explain it. Such a thing How did the Taoist priest know that Jia's family is really in a hurry to go to the doctor."

Sister Feng sighed uncontrollably: "Even if you report to the official, I'm afraid it will become an unsolved case."

Liu Shi shook her head and said in a low voice, "That's not necessarily the case."

Feng sneered, "Could it be that the siblings know who the murderer is?"

"It seems that the news about the second sister-in-law is still unclear. Many people have seen it, and found a piece of handkerchief for women from Jia Rui. Moreover, the material of the handkerchief is high-quality Shu brocade, and the patterns on it are uniquely embroidered." And delicate, the owner of this veil must be a wife or girl from a wealthy family."

Feng said suspiciously: "Didn't the siblings want to say that Jia Rui was killed by a certain daughter?"

"In short, it must have something to do with a certain woman."

Sister Feng lowered her head, staring at the porridge in the bowl.

Feng sneered in his heart, and said with concern on his face: "Why is Sister Feng silent, isn't she scared?"

Sister Feng smiled embarrassedly: "I'm timid, I made Second Aunt laugh at me. In my humble opinion, if someone kills someone intentionally, then this place is really dangerous. For the sake of everyone's wealth and lives, it's better to go back early."

Mrs. Gu also agreed, "We have lived here for four or five days, so it's time to go back. Order to go down, get ready, and go down the mountain tomorrow."

The murder of someone in Qingxuguan was spread in the capital, and this also alarmed the government, and Shuntian Fu Yin had to start investigating the case.

Jia Dairu and his wife had only one grandson, and now that their only grandson was killed, they mourned unceasingly, and shed tears day and night.He even begged Jia's mother to put pressure on Shuntian Fuyin to catch the real culprit as soon as possible.

With the Rongguo Mansion coming forward, the Yin of the Shuntian Mansion did not dare to be unsatisfied, but after checking and searching, there was no clue, the only clue was the veil.

What troubled Yin Shuntian was that, according to careful inquiry and observation, the owner of this veil was probably a girl of status.Looking at the entire capital city, there are countless relatives of the emperor and noble families, is it possible that he wants to ask them one by one?That is tantamount to offending all the nobles in the capital. How will he gain a foothold in the capital in the future?

Shuntian Fu Yin felt that this was an extremely difficult matter.But he didn't know that he was not the only one who had a headache, the Xu family was also in dire straits because of this incident.

The courtyard is deep, with red walls and green tiles, pavilions and pavilions, and lush trees.The whole yard was extremely silent, only the thrush was chattering in the corridor, but she was a little more irritable for no reason.

Xu Guogong looked at Xu Xi who was kneeling on the ground, the veins on his forehead popped up, "What's going on?!"

Xu Xi's sleeves were wet with sweat, but his whole body was cold and his teeth were chattering, "Father, I, I'm just...Father, this matter has nothing to do with me. I really didn't kill Jia Rui..."

Xu Guogong was furious, "It has nothing to do with you, so what's the matter with the handkerchief? The embroiderer in our mansion went out to buy silk thread, passed by the Shuntian government office, and clearly recognized that it was your handkerchief, and you still want to say that it has nothing to do with you ?!"

Xu Xi burst into tears, "How do I know why the veil appeared on Jia Rui's body? I feel disgusted even when I look at him. Why did I give him the veil? Father, I was really wronged..."

Jing Shui kowtowed again and again, "Grandpa, the girl really doesn't know that Jia Rui. The servant girl... the servant girl remembered that in Qingxu Temple, a beggar went on a rampage and hit the girl. Maybe it was at that time that the veil was dropped. It's unknown if Jia Rui picked it up, Lord, please don't wrong the girl."

Xu Guogong kicked Jing Shui, "You lowly maidservant, you don't serve the master well, in order to flatter the master, you encourage the girl to do some daring things all day long, and help the girl get into this catastrophe, not punishing you is not enough to deter everyone. " Then, he ordered the left and right, "Pull it down, and beat him to death with random sticks!"

Saying that, two burly attendants dragged the still water down.

Jing Shui begged for mercy: "I know I was wrong, I don't dare to do it anymore, please forgive me this time... Girl, girl save slave..."

Everyone was silent, and no one dared to intercede for Jing Shui.

As a man, Xu Guogong has always ignored the affairs of the backyard, and has always loved his only daughter. This time he was furious, which shows that it is really impossible to turn a blind eye to Xu Xi's actions.

From a long distance, it seems that the screams of still water can be heard.Xu Xi closed his eyes, tears streaming down uncontrollably.After kneeling for a long time, her legs were trembling with pain, but she didn't dare to shout about the pain.

"You look at me pampering you all the time, so don't you know what you do?" Xu Guogong said, "You first urged your sister-in-law to go to the Qingxu Temple to offer incense and pray for blessings, and then went to the palace to meet the sixth princess. This happened in a few days, I don't even need to think about what you did!"

It was only then that Xu Xi realized how ridiculous her sophistry was, and she cried even more heartbreakingly, "Father, I... I was wrong, but I am really unwilling. !"

Xu Guogong hates iron but not steel, "You, you, you are confused, and you don't know where you are wrong until now. Feng Shi wanted to borrow a knife to kill someone, but you took it obediently, and that's all. Wang Shi obviously set up for you. You foolishly sneaked in, not only failed to get rid of her, but also poured dirty water on yourself. You can't even look down on a rascal like Jia Rui, can Wang? You just acted for you to get you hooked, and you took it seriously. Maybe she is laughing at you behind your back!"

Xu Xi wiped his face with his hand, recalled it, and gritted his teeth: "She must have arranged for that beggar! She also let Jia Rui pick up the handkerchief on purpose. It's so sinister and vicious!"

Chen said softly: "Father, my sister is not deeply involved in the world. It's normal for her to fall into the other party's trap. You shouldn't scold her. The most important thing now is how to get my little sister out of this case."

Xu Xi couldn't care less about resenting Sister Feng, and hurriedly said: "Yes, father, what should I do if Mrs. Wang tells others that the handkerchief is mine? I have taken this handkerchief out before. Once Mrs. Wang reminds others, others I'll recognize it. I didn't kill Jarry, and I don't want to go to jail."

Xu Guogong pondered for a moment, "It is true that you did not kill Jia Rui, but it is indeed related to you."

Not only that, if the veil of the daughter's family appeared on a strange man, it would be easy to be accused of giving and receiving in secret. At that time, not only Xu Xi's reputation would be ruined, but the Xu family's face would also be ruined.

Maybe there are those who have dirty minds, spread some glamorous things, and try their best to ruin Xu Xi's innocence and the Xu family's reputation.At that time, what is waiting for Xu Xi is the ancient Qingdeng Buddha and his death.

Xu Xi grabbed Xu Guogong's robe, tears streaming down his face, "What to do, what to do, I'm still young, I don't want to become a monk, I want to live well."

Xu Lingzhe couldn't bear it, "Father, isn't this the end of the mountain? It's been several days, and the Wang family hasn't acted yet. Perhaps she is also afraid of the Xu family and dare not go too far."

Xu Guogong sneered: "With Gu Xingchi here, what is she afraid to do? The reason why she hasn't acted yet is to give me time to think about it."

Xu Lingzhe was confused, "What are you thinking about?"

Xu Guogong looked at Xu Xi with cold eyes, "She is giving me time to think about how to deal with Xi'er."

"Father!" Xu Xi exclaimed.

"Xi'er, you were the first to think of harming her. If she hadn't been prepared, she would be the one who died today." Xu Guogong looked at her deeply, "She may not want your life, but she must charge a little interest. You do you understand?"

Xu Xi's hand fell down feebly, and he got up from the ground, "Father, Feng Shi has nothing to do with this matter!" She also wanted to drag Feng Shi into the water.

Xu Guogong suddenly laughed, "Is there any evidence?"

"I..." Xu Xi fell down again.

Xu Lingzhe couldn't bear to see his younger sister suffer, and said: "Father, let's go to the palace to beg the empress."

……

After Gu Xingchi found out what happened to Qingxu Temple, he rushed to Qingxu Temple before he had time to report to the emperor, protecting the Gu family all the way back to the residence.

Gu Xingchi's eyes faintly flickered with flames, he took Sister Feng's hand and said, "In the past few days when I was away, so many things happened, you have suffered."

Gu Xingchi questioned Sister Feng, investigated again, and learned the truth of the matter.

Sister Feng smiled nonchalantly, "Aside from not being able to sleep well, I didn't suffer much, so don't worry about it."

Gu Xingchi pursed his lips, and many emotions were intertwined, "We are husband and wife, your affairs are naturally mine. I should protect you and help you do what you want. As long as you say something, I will It can be done. But why didn't you let me know?"

Sister Feng smiled and said, "You have official duties, so I can't bother you about such a trivial matter. Besides, I never thought that I would fail."

In the past, if Sister Feng said such confident words, Gu Xingchi would definitely burst into laughter and then make fun of her.But now, there was no joy on his face.

When Sister Feng looked up, she was startled when she saw his deep eyes staring at her. "What’s wrong with you?"

Gu Xingchi withdrew his hand, still staring at her, "Did you think about me when you were making arrangements with your body? You are confident that you will not fail, but have you ever thought that I would be worried?"

Isn't she fine?Sister Feng didn't take this point to heart, "I pretended to be relaxed just because I was afraid that you would worry."

Gu Xingchi was dubious, "Really?"

She nodded quickly.

Gu Xingchi shook his head and chuckled, "Yes, I'm worried. I'm worried that you will put yourself in danger. But I'm also very angry."

Sister Feng looked at him for a while and found that he was not joking, so she frowned and said, "Why?" Isn't this making a big deal out of a molehill?

Gu Xingchi stood up with a calm expression, "Second House covets the title, so Feng wanted to frame you. Dealing with her is what I should do. I'm very happy that you did it for me. I told you before, Ruojia If Rui dares to approach you again, I will not let him go. When I left Qingxu Temple, I left someone to protect you. If he is still wicked, you can directly order someone to tie him up and teach him a lesson. It doesn't matter if you kill it, it's up to you. But you didn't, you still..."

"I'm..." Sister Feng interrupted him when she heard that his words were wrong.

"You want to lure Xu Xi into the game, you want to hit the Feng family, you want to kill three birds with one stone, right?"

"That's what you said. If I don't expect, Xu Xi will never appear in the capital again. Mrs. Feng has learned a lesson and Jia Rui is dead. Isn't it great?" What a good plan, she I really don't understand why Gu Xingchi is angry.

Gu Xingchi laughed angrily, but she still didn't understand why he was angry.
