MTL - I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man-Chapter 242 Comprehensive Fanwai: Returning from Old Time Flowers (7)
Ye Rou felt that his life had been bumpy enough. From the splendid and prosperous Nan Chen Palace, he was unexpectedly flattered and gave birth to a child. He was left in the palace for a few years, and finally he got into the clouds and mists. His son was recognized by the royal family, but in a blink of an eye, he was a broken country. Perish. Although the family was spared, her son was killed in chaos.
Today, she is thousands of miles away from home and married into the capital. Although the Jiang family is not a friendly person, with the intimate daughter of Min Niang, she only hopes to live with her daughter safely, and she has no other choice in this life.
But what's going on?
She is sitting in a gazebo. In the midsummer season, the mountains are cool. In front of her is a huge rockery, more than ten feet high, ridges and ridges of strange stones, with the luster of jade. The purple flower of vine planting, a silver chain-like waterfall pours down from the top, twists and turns in the rocks, turns into several strands, and finally pours into the lagoon with great momentum.
One of them fell exactly on this gazebo on the edge of the lake where Yerou lived. Flying beads splashed on all sides, making the gazebo refreshing and pleasant.
Here is a huge garden with strange flowers and grass everywhere, and the scenery is beautiful and elegant. Outside the garden, there are magnificent palace houses, exquisite everywhere. Compared with Nan Chen's imperial palace in previous years, it's not too bad.
And the servants serving in the manor are also obedient and decent. From the words and manners, it can be seen that they are definitely the servants of the gates.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye in this strange manor.
Thinking back to the experience three days ago, Ye Rou is still worried. She and her daughter are walking very well in the carriage. Suddenly the horse is frightened and runs across the aisle. The entire carriage flies out.
The feeling of weightlessness enveloped the whole body, and at the moment of life hanging, Ye Rou could only hold her daughter tightly, waiting for death to come. However, just in mid-air, the carriage door was suddenly opened by the giant force, and two women in black took their mother and daughter out of the carriage and jumped onto the rock of the mountain wall.
Listening to the sound of the horse carriage falling down, Ye Rou was shocked, still managed to calm down, and thanked the life-saving benefactor: "The two women are helping me, they are memorable."
Both women are mediocre, but martial arts are extremely high.
Let Ye Rou be surprised that they did not respond to their gratitude at all, but just silently took their cornices and walked along the wall, all the way forward.
Originally thought that the two women would send themselves to the top of the cliff, who knows but went further and further in the other direction.
Ye Rou was shocked. She wanted to ask in horror, but when she saw her daughter in the arms of another, she forced her to say nothing. Smart, she has noticed that something is wrong.
Later, his mother and daughter were sent into this luxurious manor house.
The docile niece greeted, served the mother and daughter, dressing and grooming, and sent her delicious food ...
Three days passed in a blink of an eye. Regardless of the words behind the scenes, these days of life are indeed extremely comfortable. In this vast manor house, their mother and daughter are almost masters, and they enjoy a variety of meticulous service, except that they cannot walk out of the manor's walls.
In fact, this manor was huge, and Ye Rou walked for three days without going all over.
These days she is full of doubts, who brought her here, and why? With her ingenuity, she had already guessed that her horse was scared before, and it was this group of people who secretly started.
Could it be that those official tasks that I handled for my husband before have caused trouble? What kind of elites secretly manipulated on the "Fish Scale Atlas" in his early years, and now he is afraid of being discovered by himself, so start with it first! Is it the hatred that the husband caused when he was in the local office?
But if these people do it, just let them fall off the cliff without any bones, why bother to get people here? Looking at the luxury of this manor, the people behind the scene were afraid that the power would be extremely high, and Ye Rou was worried, even though the slaves in the manor were very respectful to their mother and daughter.
Compared to his mother's anxiety, Min Niang has been very happy these days.
Compared to the depression and uncomfortable at home, this manor is as beautiful as heaven.
The nieces who were surrounded by them were smart and considerate, gentle and obedient, and brought her various toys and delicious fruit snacks. The vast manor house is full of children's exploration. And there was no ridicule from Mrs. Tai, or the ridicule of those aunts. She can swing high on the swing, and there is no old lady to scold her.
Early in the morning, she followed her mother to the lake, and while her mother was sitting in the gazebo, she ran to the edge of the rockery and got in. Soon she got a lot of blooming purple flowers in her hand. .
The maidservant who had served her seemed particularly busy today, and she didn't know where to go. Min Niang looked at the pure white lotus blooming on the lake behind the rockery, she tilted her head and started to wriggle her head again.
My mother has made lotus tea before. Recently, my mother didn't think about it, so she just picked a few for her. The lotus in front of her is so beautiful that she will love it.
Just do it. There is a boat moored just behind the rockery. She got out of the cave and walked quickly to the side of the boat. I was about to get on the boat, but I saw a small shadow suddenly appear on the boat.
Min Niang was startled, and she looked at it carefully. She turned out to be a little girl who looked younger than herself. She seemed to be only three or four years old.
Her bright eyes were glaring at Min Niang, and she asked milkily, "Are you our maid? How so small?"
Min Niang shook her head. "I'm not a maid."
"then who are you?"
Min Niang was astonished, she didn't know what she was, as if she were not a guest or a slave.
"I live here with my mother, starting three days ago." Min Niang scratched her hair and tried to describe it.
The little girl snorted immediately, and her eyes were hostile: "It turns out that your mother is the woman. I heard the grandmother secretly talk about it. They thought I was asleep, hum, I heard it clearly. They said in the father's manor There is an additional woman, and she is very well born, maybe her father will accept it. "
The little girl waved her fists angrily, "I don't want my father to marry his wife."
"Nanna, is it just to marry my aunt?" Min Niang is a little older, already knows the difference between an adult's wife and concubine, and his cheeks became red immediately. He argued, "My mother is my father's wife. How can I be an aunt, don't talk nonsense." Eight. "
"Really?" The little girl stared at her.
"Of course, my father is still an official in the court, and the emperor can see it." Min Niang angrily said that the servants at home before leaving were discussing Jiang Qingyun's call by the emperor, and Min Niang also I heard one ear.
"My father is also an official in the court. He is still a general," said the little girl. She thought hard and thought, it seems that his wife is more senior than the servant, since the legendary woman is already the wife of the official, it should not be possible to come to be the father's chamber.
Min Niang looked at him, her head turned, remembering that her mother had been worried about the true identity of the owner of the manor these days, and immediately tempted, "Who is your father?"
"My father is my father. Today, when my father went out, I knew I was here to see the woman. I sneaked into the carriage. Huh, the clueless slaves didn't notice it." The little girl said proudly, seemingly right He is very proud of his achievements.
Min Niang opened her eyes wide as if she still didn't know who the father was.
The little girl's eyes fell on Min Niang again, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm going to pick some lotuses, and my mother can make lotus seed tea and lotus seed cake."
"Can these lotuses be eaten?" The little girl stared in surprise at the pure white lotus blooming on the lake.
"Of course, the lotus cake made by my mother is delicious, sweet and fragrant."
The little girl held her finger. "Really? Then I want to eat, too."
"Okay, I'll give you half of it." Min Niang promised generously.
"Then I will pick it up with you."
Food is a natural equivalent among children. Soon, a small friendship was established in an invisible corner of adults.
In front of the rockery, Ye Rou was still sitting in the gazebo.
She has asked for the host here several times and wonders if she can achieve her wish today.
Being anxious, suddenly a clear voice came from behind him.
"I heard that Madam is not thinking about these days, but these servants are not serving well?"
Ye Rou stood up instantly and turned to look around. A young man with a straight posture was splitting his willows and came slowly to this side.
Seeing the man's face clearly, Ye Rou suddenly froze.
Good-looking young man, thinking about his life, no one can compare with the person in front of him except the Eighth Prince who he saw in the Nanchen Palace.
Cui Wei smiled slightly and walked out of the gazebo, stopped and walked to Ye Rou to salute him.
Ye Rou felt relieved, and the other party's observance of etiquette immediately made people feel good.
Is he the one behind him this time? High-minded and extraordinary. Among the various speculations, Ye Rou had thought about whether his appearance attracted the others, but when he saw this person, he immediately excluded the item.
Secretly relieved, Ye Rou bowed and salute, calmly said: "I was in distress on the road a few days ago, Meng son rescued, Ende remembered. Now I am disturbing for a few days, but I am afraid that my family will remember, and the young girl misses her father. These days I want to see the son, just to say thank you and resign incidentally. "
She spoke politely, and Cui Yun couldn't help laughing: "Madam's intelligence, when you know that the admiral's wife is here, why bother to say these words?"
Unexpectedly, this person was so straightforward, Ye Rou was dumb for a moment.
"As for Miss Miss's respect for her husband, I'm afraid it is even more nonsense. Listening to the servant said that these days the Miss has been playing with great joy and reluctant to think about it."
Ye Rou's face suddenly appeared embarrassed. In the past few days, when she saw Min Niang's rare and lively, she did not restrain her. Min Niang did have a good time.
Ye Rou squeezed his sleeves and whispered: "It's just a long delay, I'm afraid my family is worried about anxiety."
"No worries, anxiety is real." Cui Yan smiled. "No one helped to do the account anymore. Zunfu is very anxious these days, but with the name of bereavement as a shield, my colleagues in the household did not find it. Lord Jiang is actually a waste of talent. "
Like a thunder on a sunny day, Ye Rou was frightened. This man knew how to help his husband in private affairs.
Seeing her look of horror, Cui Wei only thought it was funny. He couldn't hide anything about this, but still wanted to escape the investigation of Qianli Division?
What are the couple thinking? Do you think the inventory of Fish Scale Atlas is just a routine business? This matter has a bearing on the world ’s property and population, and is now the number one event on the court.
Ye Rou just stopped, subject to others, can't help himself. Jiang Qingyun's talents were ordinary, his body was a vegetarian meal, and his boss concealed him. He said that the prelude to the emperor even dared to declare to the emperor all his credit, which is already a crime of bullying him! That is to say, it is only now that this good-tempered master can save his life. He replaced Xiandi and already cut people directly.
"My wife didn't have a pleasant stay at Jiang's house, why should she stay in such a vulgar place. The wife may not know yet, just yesterday, the Jiang family has begun to organize funerals for his wife and young lady."
Ye Rou was startled: "This ..."
To be honest, she has not had much affection for the Jiang family in the past two years. But if you and your daughter are already dead in name. Wouldn't it fall into the hands of others?
For a moment, she sweated coldly and bowed her head: "After all, it is inconvenient in the end, please understand me for the difficulties of waiting for my wife and children."
"How difficult is this? If the wife feels uneasy under the fence, tomorrow I will let the housekeeper come over and transfer this manor to his wife's name." Cui Yunyun said lightly. It seemed as if only a blank piece of paper was sent out, without concern.
Ye Rou was surprised that this manor was very gorgeous, and from his own journey, he speculated that it should be located in the suburbs of Beijing. The value is obvious. Such a salute, give it away without changing the color.
With such a beautiful appearance and huge wealth, she thought of the sharp and resolute temperament of the young blade in front of her. She suddenly thought of one person and asked, "Are you the general Guo Cui?" She is also the top noble son in Beijing. Have heard of one or two.
Cui Wei did not expect that the other party could recognize himself and nodded with a smile.
Ye Rou's lips trembled, unable to speak. She heard her nephew say that this Cui Yi was so ruthless and oppressed that Nan Chen's gatekeeper spared no effort. Could it be that when Yeh's in Michigan angered him.
"Mrs. don't have to think too much. The court of Ye ’s state of loyalty and loyalty in the state can't pay back the reward. How can it be punished?"
Seeing her panic, Cui Wei easily thought of what she was worrying about.
This Mrs. Ye is extremely intelligent and not bad, but unfortunately her courage is too small and her temper is weak. It's strange how she gave birth to that daring son.
"As for the reason, it was only because an old lady of his wife's early years was thinking about it and had to let her be wronged for a few days." Cui Yi gave an ambiguous statement.
The two were talking, and suddenly there was a hustle and bustle behind them. It turned out that a naughty ghost who had slipped under the eyes of Yahuan was finally found by the anxious maids.
Cui Wei and Ye Rou came to the back of the rockery, and they saw two little Dingding holding a boat full of silver lotuses, amidst a group of maids, and ashore.
"I want to eat lotus cake!" The little girl said with confidence.
Cui Wei picked her up with a headache and appeased for a while, before finally persuading the little ancestor, the two left the manor. Before leaving, Xiaodou Ding's watery eyes were still staring at Min Niang, promising to come to her to play tomorrow.

At the foot of the mountain, due to several days of heavy rain, the originally calm stream has risen into a stream, and the water surface is surging.
A figure was scouting around the river.
The men and women of the brigade had been busy all day and night, and the corpses of Yerou's mother and daughter had not been found. The officials and the Jiang family had seen them, and the verdict was finalized because they were washed away by heavy rain.
Chen Pin also sent people to salvage downstream, but there was no harvest. This mountain stream leads to the dense forest and there are many beasts in the middle. Although the searched maggots are not directly spoken, the meaning in the discourse is that the poor The bodies of his wife and young lady were eaten by the wolf.
The Jiang family also mourned, and ordered people to go south to send a letter to the Ye Family in Mizhou, and set up the Lingtang in full swing.
Even Ye Kuang accepted this cruel reality, but some people still refused to give up.
Above the mountain wall, Chen Li took a closer look along the line where the carriage fell down. In the past few days, he hardly sleeplessly explored the details. Don't miss the abnormality of a rock.
After a busy morning, he climbed down the rock wall.
Compared with the despair and darkness of the previous days, Chen Li's face now has a touch of vitality, and there is more anger in his eyebrows.
He was originally a top horse in northern Xinjiang. If it hadn't been for half the martial arts, he would have found a clue.
On this mountain wall, there were traces of being trampled on by people. The trampled people were very clever, and most of the traces were washed away by the heavy rain. However, Chen Li fell from the carriage and found that the situation was wrong.
In addition to the time difference between the impact sounds that were asked about the maid ring servant who followed the car, Chen Li could easily speculate that when the carriage fell, it was fixed by people, and then mother and daughter Yerou were removed from the car. Rescue and let the carriage continue to fall.
who is it? Thinking about it, Ye Rou's mother and daughter cannot have enemies in Beijing, is it because of herself?
