Chapter 433: Big Things Turned Small (1)

Chapter 433

According to what Zhao Dezhu said, what happened in the Cangshu Mansion yesterday was not much different from what happened in the Fourth Master's Mansion at night, all the same maids fell into a coma, the same group of black-clothed people who fought with open fire, the same blood flowed like a river, and the same corpses everywhere, if it wasn't for Zhao Dezhu leading the secret guards in time, I am afraid that today's Cangshu Mansion would be in ruins.

Dry wood and fire oil piled up on the side of the wall, a cold-faced killer who leaves no living mouth...... This is clearly not intended to leave a single living mouth.

"Are the guards okay with their injuries?" Erph asked anxiously as she thought of this, her face full of solemnity, and she straightened her clothes and pulled up the shoes on the pedals, as if she wanted to see the guards who had fought hard all night last night.

"It should be fine!

Several Secret Guards came out of the Cangshu Lord's Mansion and stopped the bleeding with the wound medicine they were carrying, and some serious wounds were bandaged with each other, and they should be fine. It's just that before leaving, the leader of the dark guard asked the slave to bring a message to the master, saying that he was afraid that he would not be able to come and serve in the past two days.

As for where they are recuperating from their wounds, the minions do not know. ”

As the eunuch by Erfu's side from beginning to end, Zhao Dezhu knew Erfu's temperament quite well, and as soon as he saw her movements, he guessed her next step, and hurriedly explained.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Dezhu finished speaking, Erfu's movements froze.

"Go down and rest, I've been tired all night last night. Erfu took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, as if to spit out all the troubles and sullenness in his head, and relieved himself for a long time. Only then did he step forward to help Zhao Dezhu, who was short and polite, patted Zhao Dezhu's shoulder, and said with a smile full of encouragement and comfort.

Zhao Dezhu nodded again and again. Secretly wiped the tears that slipped from the corners of his eyes.

As the big eunuch of the West Courtyard, he usually values him more than Wang Shoucai, but at the critical moment, he found that he was not much better than Wang Shoucai, and he might even be worse, he was ashamed......

thought that he would be taught a hard lesson by his master, but he was so sympathetic by his master. He felt his eyes drenched in sweat.

Erfu didn't know about Zhao Dezhu's psychological changes, and she didn't have the heart to sleep when she saw Zhao Dezhu leave the upper room. Rubbing the corners of his forehead, which was a little swollen and twitching, he looked at the empty room, casually pulled a cotton cloak embroidered with satin embroidery and wrapped it around his body, and walked briskly to the front yard.

saw two pairs of children, such as Hongxuan and Xiaoqi, who were safe. There were only two things left in Erf's mind. On the one hand, he was thinking about the fourth master who had not returned overnight, and on the other hand, he was concerned about the casualties of the servants and slaves in the back house.

Thinking about his thoughts, Erfu had already staggered out of the range of the west courtyard, looked at the end of the two paths at the fork in the road, hesitated for a moment, and then walked towards the dividing line between the inner house and the outer courtyard - the hanging flower gate.

A turquoise screen door embedded in the vermilion lacquer handrail corridor divides the inside and outside into two parts, and also divides into two worlds.

Erph thought that what she saw at dawn was the worst scene. In the cracks of the floor tiles that have not yet had time to be cleaned, there is still blood left. Which Cheng thought, she just bypassed the screen door and couldn't suppress the discomfort in her stomach, there were broken arms and legs everywhere, and there was a wail, as if it was like a magic sound in her ears, looking at the knife marks and sword wounds on those pines and cypresses, all of which showed the tragedy that happened this morning.

The more I watched, the more frightened I became, and the more I watched, the more frightened I became......

Erfu, who was originally quite leisurely and calm, didn't know when he started, his steps were a little staggering, and he pounced on his face with a layer of powder, without any blood, and his teeth unconsciously bit his lower lip, and his hands clenched his clothes uneasily, and his mouth was broken: "It must be fine, it must be fine, those people don't have the courage to ......"

The study in the front yard - the forbidden place in the fourth master's mansion.

Although Erfu had never been to the house as a lady, she still walked along the widest and most elegant five-colored cobblestone road, and came to the door of the study without any accident.

At this time, the gate of the front yard and the main courtyard, which was wide open in the past, was tightly closed.

"Bang bang bang!"

As soon as Erfu raised her hand and knocked on the door, still organizing the language, the door was silently opened, and the fourth master, who was wearing a gray robe, with a tired face and bloodshot eyes, appeared in front of her so suddenly.

"Worries you!"

Without Erfu speaking, the fourth master saw her worry and uneasiness from Erfu's expression, raised his hand and grabbed Erfu, who was standing in front of him with only willpower, and took it into his arms, his bare head was pressed against Erfu's neck that had been frozen cold, and a trace of tears silently slipped down.

In the early hours of yesterday morning, the fourth master who planned to change his clothes first and then go to the study to see the fourth master of Cangshu, was suddenly attacked in front of the wardrobe in the inner room, the assassination master who broke out of the wardrobe, a number of black-clothed people jumped under the beams of the house, and a group of dead soldiers dressed as robbers suddenly appeared, which was supposed to be the front yard of all things silent, and suddenly became a battlefield of swords and swords.

He didn't even have time to arrange a backhand before he threw himself into this life-and-death struggle.

In the morning light, the first rays of morning light fell in the study, and the black-clothed people who desperately wanted to rush to him walked out of the door one after another and disappeared in front of his eyes, but the fourth master, who had always been thoughtful, steady and decisive, hesitated and delayed and did not dare to enter the inner house.

He was afraid that his relatives would leave her one after another when he saw the inner house, and he was even more afraid of seeing Erf lying in front of his eyes again with a bloodless face.

Hearing that the dark guard came to report that Guarjia Fujin from the West Courtyard was coming, he suddenly had a sense of surprise and relief that he had regained, and with the playful eyes of Cangshu, he ran to the gate of the courtyard like a hairy boy, just waiting for the knock on the door, hoping to see the full beard and full shadow of Erfu for the first time.

"You're okay!" Erph noticed a trace of wetness on his neck and the fourth master's slightly trembling body, and his arms around the fourth master's waist tightened, and asked softly.

"I'm fine, what about you?" The fourth master lost his temper for a moment and returned to normal, and sent Su Peisheng and Fu Nai, who were still watching the excitement, to deal with Cangshu. With Erf in his arms, he walked into the study.

This study, which had never been open to the ladies of the house, appeared in front of Erfu's eyes, looking at the simple but not stylish study in front of him, but the atmosphere hides warm details. She forgot that she shouldn't have appeared here, let the fourth master hold her hand, and came to the bookcase in the study that was the size of the boss's desk, and sat down on the inward-curved horseshoe Taishi chair inlaid with marble slabs carved with cloud dragon patterns that belonged to the fourth master.

"I'm scared!" The fourth master personally handed Erfu a cup of hot tea, handed it to Erfu's hand, and took the opportunity to touch Erfu's hand, feeling that Erfu's hand was already warm. Only then did he put his mind at ease, after all, the Erfu who looked like a broken glass doll just now really frightened him. It also made him feel distressed.

Erfu shook her head with a smile, a pair of eyes reflected a miniature version of the fourth master, and replied with a soft voice: "Yaoqin and Qixiang are very away, and those secret guards are not easy to get along with." So even if there are three or two little thieves. It's just an axe. ”

Don't look at how light she can say, but she was frightened before, but as soon as she saw the fourth master in front of her, her eyes were full of concern, she felt relieved, and she forgot the blood marks all over her hands and feet that scared her hands and feet.

The sixteenth day of the first month.

This day is a special day for all the slaves in the Fourth Master's Mansion, except for a few spies who know the details. Everyone else spent the day in a state of trepidation.

Before the sky was dark, the big palace maids in front of Fujin and Guarjia Fujin came to pass a message, saying that it was hard work to prepare for this Lantern Festival lantern feast. gave them a day off, and asked the big kitchen to send all kinds of fresh vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs and other things to improve the food, and the only requirement was that they were not allowed to go out.

Although it is very pleasant to play cards in the room when they are full, they say that they are under great pressure in their hearts when they are so ignorant and locked up in the yard.

Fortunately, it was not only their servants who were locked up in the courtyard, but even the masters of the courtyards had received such orders.

A few Gege, except for Niu Hulu, who are still not very smart, made a fuss in the yard for a while, and finally stopped under the persuasion of the maidservant, and the other Gege were all smiling and eating and drinking and living a short life of rice worms.

Jing Gege even called the servant girl who was close to prepare mahjong, cards and other things, and became a fortune boy.

And the Li family, who was on an equal footing with Erfu, after getting the news, heard that Yaoqin next to Erfu was coming and going freely in the mansion, so he was so angry that he rushed out on the spot, and he rolled up his arms and sleeves to go to the Wulanala clan to distinguish the difference.

The virtues of the concubines and concubines who are guarded on weekdays have been forgotten, and they have been scolding in the courtyard for a long time with a sharp voice, mainly to say that she, a side Fujin, is also a serious royal daughter-in-law, and she must not be tortured like this, and she will be grounded for no reason, but some people who have made mistakes and been grounded can go out and walk around.

But her luck is really not very good, just when she scolded happily, Qi Xiang led a few secret guards pretending to be maids to come over to send ingredients to the east courtyard, as soon as she heard it, she was really angry, and no matter what the difference between master and servant, she stepped forward and kicked Li to the ground, and slapped the two maids who fanned the flames next to Li a few times, so that she left two secret guards to guard, and threw Li back into the room, strictly ordered her not to step out of the door, and punished the slaves who did not know how to persuade the master in the courtyard for three months, and left the east courtyard with people, and went back to complain to the Wulanala clan。

"I'm tired, why don't you go back with you to rest for a while!" the fourth master looked at Erfu's blue eyes and asked with worry.

"How can I be so squeamish!" Erfu blushed shyly, lowered his head and twisted the corners of his clothes, and replied softly, "Besides, Ye here is busy finding out which people came from yesterday, and Fujin is also busy counting the number of injured, how can I be so lazy!"

"Fool, there are secret guards for these things!" The fourth master rubbed the top of Erfu's soft hair, smiled again, and said in an extraordinarily gentle tone, then called Su Peisheng, who was waiting outside the door, in, and commanded softly, "Let people prepare a soft sedan chair and wait for your Guerjia master to go back to rest, and let those secret guards hurry up and clean up the house, I don't want to spread any bad rumors!"

After speaking, he didn't wait for Erfu to refuse, and put it in Erfu's ear, and said softly: "Go back and rest, and go over to Lan Qin to have a look!"

Seeing that the fourth master said this, Erfu naturally couldn't refuse, otherwise it would reach the ears of outsiders, and she thought that she deliberately dominated the fourth master and didn't let the fourth master go to see the Ulanala clan, so she nodded obediently, smiled and told the fourth master to pay attention to his body, and don't work too hard to sit in the soft sedan chair arranged by Su Peisheng, and go back to the west courtyard directly.

At the same time, she also asked Su Peisheng to go to Lanyue Tower to take a trip to bring back Gu Zheng and Xiaowen and others, who had been banned over there and couldn't come back, so as not to worry about the other servants in the courtyard, of course, it was more because there was no one who was familiar with her temperament and habits to serve by her side, and she really felt uncomfortable.

If it were according to her temperament, it would naturally be best to get back Yaoqin who was helping in the main courtyard, but she also knew that the Wulanala clan in the main courtyard was too busy, and it was when she needed manpower, so she could only retreat to let Guzheng and the others come back to serve.

"Let people prepare water in the bathroom of the wing room, I want to take a good bath to relieve fatigue!" As soon as he saw Guzheng and Xiaowen and others, Erfu couldn't wait to order, and he didn't even leave them time to take a breath, and sent them directly to the small kitchen to be busy.

In the wing, the luxurious white jade soup pool, it only took a moment to fill it with hot spring water that is good for the body, and the water surface was sprinkled with a layer of colorful flower petals, which was fragrant and steamy, so that Erfu stopped all her precautions as soon as she entered the door, and jumped into the water wrapped in a thin gauze skirt.

Looking at the red marks looming on her body, Erfu said secretly: It's a shame that the clothes she wore in this winter are all leather, otherwise she is afraid that she will be covered in bruises.

"Master, Concubine Tong Jia is so ruthless, how can I treat you like this!" Gu Zheng twisted the handkerchief to wipe Erfu's back, and at the same time nagged in his mouth, blaming Erfu's somewhat strange scars on Concubine Tong Jia, who made that scene too real, so that Guzheng directly regarded Concubine Tong Jia as a two-faced person with a merciful face, and even made Guzheng completely hate Concubine Tong Jia.

For Guzheng, anyone who hurts the Guerjia clan is definitely not a good person.

Erfu had already understood the fourth master's plan under the order of the Wulanala clan to prohibit all servants from entering and leaving at will and the fourth master sent out all the secret guards to clean the courtyard, and the fourth master did not plan to make a big deal about it, so he didn't explain it to Guzheng, but just smiled and waved his hand, and said softly: "Don't talk nonsense, Concubine Tong Jia is also angry." ”

And Erfu's actions made Guzheng even more distressed, and this misunderstanding was so deeply engraved in Guzheng's heart.

It's just that she didn't know the psychological activities of the guzheng, and when she saw that the guzheng was no longer speechless, she didn't say anything more, smiled and rubbed her somewhat stiff neck, beckoned Xiaowen and Xiaoman to step forward, wrapped in a robe and went into the inner room to rest.

This night, Erf slept very soundly.

I slept until the next day, and then I supported my aching body, opened my eyes, rubbed my hungry flat belly, took out the posture of shouting for help when I met the gangsters, and shouted heartbreakingly: "Come on, prepare food." ”
