Chapter 621 Guilt
After Cen Ao ordered the dispatch of personnel to arrest the people, he also ordered people to send Cen Xiyan and Jingshuang master and servant back to Cen Mansion. Except for a confidant sent by Cen Ao, the other guards were sent to protect Cen Xiyan.
There's a carriage.
Cen Xiyan only brought two guards when he left the house, but when he returned there were several times more, and the extra guards were basically people around Cen Ao and Cen Lan.
With such a grand scene, returning to the Cen Mansion naturally attracted the attention of all parties in the mansion.
No, as soon as Cen Xiyan returned to Jinglan Pavilion to wash up and change clothes, Mrs. Cen sent her maid Chuntao over and asked her to go to Furong Garden to talk.
When Cen Xiyan went to Furong Garden, he saw Mrs. Li and Mrs. Zhao both at Mrs. Cen's place.
When Mrs. Zhao saw Cen Xiyan, her eyelids twitched. Her hands on her legs were subconsciously clenched into fists. They were perfectly manicured and her fingernails painted with kodan dug deeply into the palms of her hands, but she seemed completely unaware of it.
Cen Xiyan glanced at Zhao briefly. When Zhao met her eyes, his already pale face turned even paler, and his lips trembled involuntarily.
"Xi Yan pays his respects to his grandmother and his mother." Cen Xiyan looked back at Mrs. Zhao and bowed to Mrs. Cen and Mrs. Li in a polite manner.
Li Shi nodded towards Cen Xiyan.
Mrs. Cen, with a loving look on her face, patted the seat next to her and said to Cen Xiyan: "Sixth girl, come and sit."
Cen Xiyan sat next to Mrs. Cen, facing Mrs. Zhao. She raised her eyes, then looked over and said, "Aunt Zhao is also here with my grandmother? I saw that Aunt Zhao's face didn't look good, why?
Why don’t you take a good rest?”
Hearing Cen Xiyan's words, Mrs. Cen and Mrs. Li couldn't help but look at Mrs. Zhao.
When Zhao saw everyone's eyes turned towards her, her body suddenly trembled!
When Mrs. Cen saw Mrs. Zhao like this, she frowned and said coldly: "You are not in good health. You just rest in your yard. Why are you always running out!"
Mrs. Zhao and Cen Xiyan just arrived at Furong Garden. Old Mrs. Cen didn't bother to ask her what she was doing here. She just looked at her sick and sick look and felt upset, especially because of the haunting in the house a while ago.
As soon as the incident came out, the rumors about Zhao also reached the ears of Mrs. Cen, and she became even more displeased with Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao calmed her mind, forced a smile on her lips, lowered her eyebrows and said submissively: "My concubine's body is fine. She can't lie down in the house. I haven't seen the old lady for a few days, and I feel bad in my heart.
I was thinking about it, so I wanted to come over and have a look, and it would be good to listen to the conversation between the old lady and the eldest lady. Wouldn’t the old lady find it annoying to have a maid?"
In fact, she came to Furong Garden in a hurry after hearing that Cen Xiyan had returned home and that Mrs. Cen sent someone to Cen Xiyan's yard.
After hearing what Zhao said, Mrs. Cen only glanced at her and said nothing more. Instead, she took Cen Xiyan's hand and asked her about her departure from the mansion today.
"Sixth girl, I heard that when you returned home, your father and your third uncle's people came back with you? But what happened?" Mrs. Cen didn't mince words and directly asked the questions in her heart.
.
If Cen Xiyan met her father and third uncle when she went out for shopping, even though it was a bit of a coincidence, it would not have attracted the attention of Mrs. Cen, but Cen Ao and Cen Lan's guards had followed Cen Xiyan back, so this matter was
This is a bit unusual, and I heard that two of the guards were injured.
Cen Xiyan didn't intend to hide it. She couldn't hide the matter at all, and her original intention was to make a fuss, otherwise the scene would not be a climax.
Cen Xiyan glanced at Mrs. Zhao again without any trace, and looked at her unintentionally. Mrs. Zhao was frightened by her, and then she answered Mrs. Cen's question, "To my grandmother,
Today, my granddaughter spent the whole morning shopping in the East Market. She bought all the things she needed to buy. Seeing that it was still early, she planned to go to Yuehua Temple to worship Buddha and offer incense. However, unexpectedly, she encountered a robber on the way. Fortunately, her father
My uncle and I were also going to Yuehua Temple today to visit the abbot master, and we happened to meet our granddaughter, so we rescued her." As Cen Xiyan spoke, he patted his chest with his hand, showing a somewhat frightened look on his face.
Then he said: "Those evil people are very evil. Now that I think about it, my granddaughter's heart is still pounding."
Cen Xiyan's words made Mrs. Cen, Mrs. Li, Mrs. Zhao, and even the maids and mothers in the room change their expressions!
"Liu Yatou, you, you mean, on Yuehua Temple, you met... met a robber??" Mrs. Cen was very frightened, and she was a little unbelievable! You know, Sheng'an City is...
The Imperial Capital! The Yuehua Mountain is right in the city, and the Yuehua Temple on the mountain has always been enshrined by the royal family. Where did the thieves come from and have the courage to commit crimes there?
Li immediately asked: "How many gangsters are there? Have any of them been caught?"
Cen Xiyan nodded and told Mrs. Cen and Mrs. Li the details of the process, including the contents of Cen Ao's interrogation of the gangsters. Of course, what the gangster said about the dirty ways to deal with her
, she couldn't say it, so she took it over in a vague way.
After telling what happened, Cen Xiyan said with a "fearful" look on his face: "Grandma, mother, Xiyan has lived in Qingyuan Town for ten years and has been living a peaceful life. He doesn't even interact with the neighbors near Zhuangzi.
I didn’t think I had offended anyone. After I returned to the capital, I didn’t even recognize a few people and rarely went out. I really couldn’t figure out who it was that wanted to kill me... Now that I think about it, my back
I feel cold, and my heart feels uncomfortable..."
After hearing what Cen Xiyan said, Mrs. Cen and Mrs. Li both looked very unhappy and frowned, thinking about this matter.
The Cen family has been hereditary for generations, and holds the military power. It can be regarded as the top wealthy family in the Eastern Xun Kingdom. Those gangsters knew that Cen Xiyan was the sixth lady of the Cen family, and they still attacked her. They were very courageous! And
As Cen Xiyan said, she had been in Qingyuan Town for ten years without any incident, but she had an incident just a few months after returning to the capital. This is even more intriguing! Is the other party here for her? Or is it for her?
Are you from the Cen family? Is someone provoking the Cen family?!
Because of inertial thinking, Mrs. Cen and Mrs. Li took things astray.
At this moment, Mrs. Zhao suddenly stood up! In this quiet room, her actions seemed particularly abrupt, and the eyes of everyone in the room were involuntarily focused on her.
