Chapter forty-ninth mind
The assassination of the seventh prince Wei Tianming caused a lot of storm in Kyoto, and the Bai Mansion in Liuxingxiang is no exception.
Liuxingxiang Baifu Grand House Qingyouyuan.
There is a wooden plaque hanging high at the entrance of the quiet courtyard. The three words "Qingyouyuan" written in small regular script on the plaque are elegant and elegant.
The two words "Qingqing" refer to the fragrance of plum blossoms and flowers, and are written by the fifth lady Bai Xuemei personally to express her uncontested mood.
Qingyouyuan is Bai Xuemei's yard, and the main room is her boudoir. The furnishings in the boudoir are simple and bright. At first glance, it doesn't look like the boudoir of a woman waiting to marry, but rather like the sleeping area of a literati and poet.
There is a row of bookshelf on the west side of the room, and the bookshelf is filled with various books. On the table in front of the bookshelf is a guqin. The body of the guqin is smooth, which is supposed to be caused by the owner's frequent touching. On the desk next to the guqin is a plate of tiger-headed orchid, which is green and pleasant, full of vitality, making the room full of fragrance.
At this time, the voices of conversation were heard inside, and Bai Xuemei and the eldest wife Song were sitting on the bed of the Arhat in the inner room and talking about their own words.
"Mom, this time the assassination of the Seventh Prince also has something to do with me. I am really sorry. I don't know what happened to the Seventh Prince's injury. If something happened to the Seventh Prince, I..." Bai Xuemei's face was sad and she was a little dark at the moment. I think she would not have a good sleep for a few days.
Song was also worried after hearing Bai Xuemei's words. Although she was a little surprised when she saw the Seventh Prince sending her daughter back, she was more happy, and she was secretly proud of her heart that even the Seventh Prince was in love with Mei'er.
But in less than half a day, I heard that the Seventh Prince was stabbed and was seriously injured.
Now her heart fell from the sky to the eighteenth level of hell. The time when the seventh prince was assassinated was such a coincidence. What if someone was interested in this matter was related to Mei'er?
Assassination of the prince is a serious crime. Not only will her be loved by her most, but the entire Bai family will suffer along with her.
Fortunately, it has been a few days since then, and no one has mentioned this matter at the mansion. There is no result in asking the master to go to the court to test it. I think everyone has not linked these two things. It is God's blessing!
Song thought his daughter was worried about causing trouble because of the seventh prince. She looked at the circle of black greens in her daughter and comforted her:
"Mei'er, don't worry, the assassination of the Seventh Prince has nothing to do with you. It was him who sent someone to send you back home. What does it have to do with you? Besides, your father is here, he will definitely protect you from being affected by this matter. You suffered some grievances in Hukou Hutong two days ago. In the past two days, I heard from the maid that you didn't have a good rest. Mom sees that your face is not very good, so please relax and don't be sick."
Bai Xuemei knew that her mother could not understand what she was thinking, and did not take her mother's comfort seriously.
In fact, she was not afraid of causing trouble because of the Seventh Prince. If she could do so, she would rather block the assassin for the Seventh Prince than be injured.
What's more, if the Seventh Prince had not left most of the servants to take care of her, how could the assassin succeed?
When he thought that the man was injured because of him, Bai Xuemei's heart seemed to be cut by a blunt knife. However, last time he actually rescued himself in Hukou Hutong, could he also treat him...
Bai Xuemei thought of this in her heart, and she was worried and a little happy, and her cheeks were red.
Song looked at the strange flushing on his daughter's face, thinking that her daughter was sick. He hurriedly picked up his hand and touched Bai Xuemei's forehead to see if she was hot.
He also said anxiously: "Mei'er, you are feeling uncomfortable, why are you blushing so hard? I'll ask someone to invite the doctor."
Seeing that his mother had misunderstood far away, Bai Xuemei didn't know how to explain it. She could only say guiltily: "Mom, I'm fine. But this room is too boring. Just take a window to get some breath, so you don't have to hire a doctor."
When Song heard this, hesitated and asked with concern: "Mei'er, are you really okay? Why don't you ask the doctor to come and have a look?"
"Mom, I'm really fine. If I go to hire a doctor at this time, I don't know how to arrange my daughter with this matter. Mom, do you have the heart to watch us being laughed at by the second room?"
"She Chen Qiuyan dares! What is their second room? You dare to come and come to see us for a joke. If the old lady in the backyard was still there, I would have been holding the second room in my hand. Let's see if they dare to be the long-tongued woman everywhere."
When Song thought of Chen's gloating expression when he went to the old lady to pay his respects these two days, he was so angry that the short-sighted idiot really thought that something happened to the big house and their second house could be safe.
Bai Xuemei didn't think it was inappropriate when she heard her mother's words about the second wife, as if she was taken for granted.
Although Song said this, she still didn't want to be laughed at by the second house she looked down upon. Although she was still a little worried about her daughter, she still got up and opened the window in the house halfway. On the one hand, it was breathable, and on the other hand, it would not let Bai Xuemei get cold in the wind.
After returning from the window, I just sat down again, Bai Xuemei opposite him spoke to her: "Mom, the Seventh Prince has helped me no matter what. Mom, do you want to go to the Seventh Prince's Mansion to have a sick life, so as not to say that I am not polite?"
After hearing what his daughter said, Song lowered his eyes and thought, his daughter's words made sense. No matter what, the Seventh Prince helped Mei'er, if they had no expression, it would make people feel guilty, which would not benefit Mei'er and the Bai family.
Then he said to Bai Xuemei: "According to the word "ritual, you have received help from the Seventh Prince this time, and you should indeed come to thank you. But you are a woman waiting to marry in the boudoir, and there are no female relatives in the Seventh Prince's mansion. If you come to the house like this, you may cause gossip. Moreover, the assassination of the Seventh Prince is of great importance. If you come to the house rashly, you may cause unnecessary trouble. My mother thinks it is better to send someone to send some precious thank-you gifts to the Seventh Prince's mansion to express your gratitude, and we don't have to thank you in person."
Bai Xuemei was very worried about the injury of the seventh prince. The recent rumors about the assassination of the seventh prince in Kyoto made her unable to sleep or eat.
But she knew that what her mother said was not unreasonable. So she could only suppress the strong wish in her heart and nodded reluctantly: "What I said is very true, then let me arrange it."
Seeing that his daughter was in a bad mood, Song thought that her daughter was feeling uncomfortable, so he held her daughter's hand and said with concern: "Mei'er, my mother will take care of this matter. I will never let you gossip. You have a good rest these days, so don't think too much. Mom will ask the kitchen to make your favorite Cordyceps chili chicken to replenish your body."
Bai Xuemei felt really depressed because she had something in her heart and no one could tell her.
Hearing his mother's words, he was extremely impatient with her coaxing her like a greedy child, and said perfunctorily: "Mom, I understand. I'm a little tired and want to rest for a while!"
Seeing that his daughter looked haggard, Song felt so distressed that he scolded the Seventh Prince several times.
"Okay, you lie down for a while, my mother asks Jian Zhi to come in and wait for you to rest."
"Then I'm sorry, my mother." After Bai Xuemei said that, she wanted to get up and say goodbye to her mother, but Song held it down in time.
"You kid, why are you doing these vow gifts when you look like this? You have a good rest, mom will leave first."
After saying that, Song got up and turned around and left in one step. When he arrived at the outside, he quickly called Bai Xuemei's personal maid Jian Zhi to take good care of the lady. After taking a look at the inside, he turned around and left.
When Song left, Bai Xuemei in the inner room could no longer control herself. She grabbed the pillow on the Arhat's bed and buried her face in it and started crying silently.
Jian Zhi, a beautiful and charming maid, opened the curtain in the inner room and walked in and saw the lady crying. After turning her big eyes for several times, she decided to wait aside and not disturb her.
