Vol 4 Chapter 93: to meet

Miss Zheng's family opened her eyes slightly.

The foreground was shaking slightly, and she took a long time to identify it carefully before realizing that it was in a carriage.

She was startled suddenly, and the scene before she fainted immediately flooded her mind...Entering the Lei Mansion, hearing the conversation, being pulled closer to the door, and then...

Recalling that the pain was as painful as a knife, and it was twisted into the atrium, she closed her eyes and swallowed the blood that rushed to her throat.

Skip that paragraph, the memory of what happened afterwards is very clear, that nasty beauty hall steward, the person she wanted to save with all her heart, was still not at ease after doing bad things, and wanted to come to personally inspect, and wanted to stop herself from committing suicide, so she jumped on it , choked her, ruthlessly choked this enemy who wanted to eat his flesh and lay bare his skin...

I don't know where the strength came from, full of grief and indignation, I just want to hold all the shameless and despicable people in this world under my hands, burn them clean, the woman gradually struggled under his hands, and then...

I can't remember after that, it seems that I fainted suddenly...

Miss Zheng Qi was startled, and turned to look at the decoration of the carriage. She was from a family, and when she saw the gorgeous decoration of the carriage, she was even more frightened—I heard that some places kidnapped people, ruined them, and then sold them to those places. Dirty place...

Thinking of this, she turned pale and gritted her teeth—the Zheng family was about to be ashamed because of herself, how could they continue to live on and tarnish the entire century-old name of the Zheng family!

She suddenly stood up, opened the window, and was about to jump off.

Even if there is a cliff outside the window, she jumped!

Looking out of the window is a cliff!

The movement of opening the window startled everyone, one of them poked his head in, and saw that she was about to jump out of the window with her skirt tied up, so startled that she grabbed the corner of her skirt, "Miss Zheng Qi, don't get me wrong, I'm waiting to save you!" Your people, sent you home!"

Miss Zheng Qi turned her head in panic, her face was protrudingly white in the dark carriage.

"His Royal Highness Li Wang is inspecting Puyang today," the man explained hastily, "I accidentally discovered that Miss...is in danger, so he rescued her and ordered me to send Miss back home."

At this time, Miss Zheng Qi saw that it was the way home outside, and the Zheng Mansion was already in sight not far away, she sat down as if she was exhausted, staring blankly at the high raised blue cornices of the Zheng Mansion, tears fell silently all over her face.

The man was very polite, he sighed and put down the curtain without asking or looking. After a while, Ms. Zheng Qi heard the sound of horseshoes outside the car window. Apparently someone was sent to guard the window to prevent her from jumping out of the window. The sound of horseshoes was a little far away and not close. It does not match the legendary Prince Li's eccentric temperament.

Not long after arriving at Zheng's Mansion, the people who worked in Li Wang's Mansion were very good at coming, so they didn't directly help them down, but handed over Li Wang's post, and went directly to see the master of Zheng's mansion, the old man of Zheng's mansion and several masters accepted the post and hurried When he came out to greet him, the courteous and courteous staff member of Li Wang came forward to meet him. He was very polite. During the conversation, he calmly explained the matter of Miss Zheng's "being deceived and framed by the stewards of the Hall of Beauty". Shocked, he immediately ordered the steward of the backyard to carry out the sedan chair, and quietly carried the young lady directly to the backyard. Not long after, there was a loud cry of grief in the backyard.

The Wang Li staff in front did not leave, and was kept in the front hall by the old lady of the Zheng family to talk. During the conversation, what happened to the Seventh Miss of the Zheng family was vaguely and euphemistically explained. The more the Zheng family listened, the more frightened and angry they became, and they looked at each other in blank dismay.

Suddenly hearing the commotion in the backyard, a woman stumbled forward after a while, the old master of the Zheng family hurried out of the living room and continued, his face was ugly after hearing a few words, and when he came back, he didn't even care about the guests, and whispered in the old man's ear, vaguely A few words came out, "...suicide...while people are watching closely..."

The old man of the Zheng family's face was pale, he closed his eyes and sighed deeply, then the old man of the Zheng family said something that must be concealed in a low voice, but the old man of the Zheng family suddenly shook his head.

The long-sleeved and good at dancing Li Wang's staff suddenly stood up, saluted upwards, met the surprised eyes of the old men of the Zheng family, and said calmly and earnestly: "Please forgive me for taking the liberty, I will send the young lady back, and I will be in your residence. The reason why I linger on is because my highness asked me to marry Miss Zheng Qi."

Everyone in the hall was shocked. Mr. Zheng was about to say that his granddaughter was engaged, when he suddenly thought of what happened today. This matter must not be hidden from anyone, and he must not be hidden from others. He is a branch of the royal family, and his family is famous. How can it be easy for his daughter-in-law to be innocent? You're dirty, after all, this marriage is already out of the question.

It's just that His Royal Highness Li's reputation...but it doesn't seem to be very good.

The staff member observed his expression, and said more sincerely: "My Highness rescued the young lady today, it was a matter of little effort. After not wanting to save the young lady, the young lady hit the pillar and committed suicide immediately. My highness looked at it, very heartbroken by the young lady Zhenlie, and is willing to seek employment for the young lady For the concubine."

Seeing that the Zheng family looked embarrassed, he took another step forward and said in a low voice: "In this situation, the marriage contract between the Zheng and Meng families may be difficult to conclude. With the integrity of the Zheng family, they will definitely not embarrass the Meng family, but In this way, Miss Zheng can only commit suicide or become a monk. Her beauty has been reduced, and the ancient Buddha's lamp is blue. My Highness can't bear Miss to fall into such a situation. A strong woman with a strong heart, innocently swallowed up by this troubled world, this is exactly what His Royal Highness wants to understand and love. His Highness is so caring, and he will definitely not embarrass Miss Zheng for this in the future. Wouldn't it be nice to spend half your life in misery? Old master, after all, that is your granddaughter who grew up lovingly and lovingly..."

The last sentence seemed to have finally moved Old Mrs. Zheng. His wrinkled face, which was originally tightly wrinkled, was tightly clustered again, and then he let go suddenly. He sighed and waved to his sons.

Li Wang's staff members beamed with joy. Said: "Then I will take my leave and report the good news to our Highness, so I can prepare a gift and invite a matchmaker as soon as possible, and formally come to propose marriage."

Li Wang's staff hurried away, and the atmosphere in Zheng's hall was stiff. After a while, the head of the Zheng's house, Mr. Zheng Qi's father, said anxiously: "Father, how do you start this matter? We are about to get married, how do we explain it to the Meng family? Besides, His Royal Highness Li, although the staff in the mansion are well-behaved today, their reputation is really inappropriate..."

"As a father, how can you not know?" The old man of Zheng's mansion sighed, "It's just that now, the marriage contract with the boy Ahu of the Meng family is no longer possible. If you hide the marriage, it will be a catastrophe for the Meng family to find out in the future; if you don't hide it, Qi girl There is a dead end, and the Meng family will definitely not marry again. What's more troublesome is that Prince Li is determined to marry Qiyatou. At this point, if he really wants to refuse, with his temperament, I am afraid that my Zheng family is still a big Woe, in the past, my Zheng family could still rely on its status as a scholar, clear its reputation, and not be afraid of the powerful and powerful, but now he is the benefactor of Qiyatou. , I'm afraid I won't end up..."

Everyone looked awe-inspiring, and the old man of the Zheng family sighed, "Go and prepare a generous gift, and tell the Meng family the secret of this matter, and withdraw the marriage!"

Everyone sighed and dispersed, and the nuns who were listening in the hall hurriedly turned around, rushed into the backyard, and informed the female relatives behind of the results of the discussions of the men in front.

The female relatives thought that she had changed her mind, thinking that life is better than no life. Ordinary women have come to a dead end when they encounter this situation, and now it is considered a turnaround. It can even be said that it was a blessing in disguise. I think Miss Zheng Qi will not seek death again, so they told the nanny to live well Care, the crowd dispersed.

Miss Zheng Qi stayed under the window for a while, and then said that she was so tired that she wanted to sleep. The maidservant made the bed, watched the young lady go to bed with her clothes on, put down the curtains, and each retreated.

After a while, the courtyard gradually became quiet, and Miss Zheng Qi slowly sat up from the bed.

The setting sun was golden in a room at dusk, she was slender and bright in the light, but she was as white as plaster. Beauty gains and loses life.

She got out of bed slowly, put on soft-soled shoes, half of the bulging blanket was exposed from the half-raised curtain, and it seemed that someone was still soundly asleep.

Then she quietly stepped out of the door, her timing was very accurate, at this moment, the big maids usually do needlework in the other room, and the women should go to the big kitchen to get dinner, most of the servants eat in front, there is one in the yard No one.

She quietly walked out of the yard, took a remote path, bypassed her garden where people often came and went, and walked to a gloomy-looking bamboo forest on the west side of the yard.

She remembered that there was a well in the bamboo forest. Many years ago, a servant girl threw herself into a well here. After that, no one came to the bamboo forest and its vicinity, and it was very quiet against the back wall.

When she entered the bamboo forest, she saw a lonely well platform covered with moss, cold in the dim setting sun.

No one came to the bamboo forest for a long time, the growth was dense, the body passed through the narrow bamboo gaps, and the cold bamboo leaves brushed across the cheeks, with sharp edges, which seemed to be slightly painful.

But I don't think, I don't care, life doesn't matter, so what is appearance?

She numbly walked to the well platform, vaguely seemed to hear some noise from the other side of the wall, but she didn't want to pay attention to it, she sat on the well platform like a wandering soul, and looked carefully at the bottom of the well, there was water, as deep as an abyss, reflecting her face Fragmented.

She stared quietly in the direction of the backyard for a while, then suddenly turned her head, feeling that there seemed to be eyes staring at her behind her, but behind her was only a dense forest, and the bamboo leaves cut the residual sunlight into pieces.

After watching for a while, she turned around without making a sound, and fell down the well—

"call out."

Something flew over with a sharp sound and snapped a few bamboo poles. Her shoulders went numb and she couldn't move suddenly.

Her body was still leaning forward, she was about to fall into the well stiffly, with the sound of the wind blowing over her head, a person jumped from the wall, quickly broke a piece of bamboo and wood, and stretched out his hand to support her.

The man helped her down the well platform, sat with his back to the well platform, then reached out and patted her shoulder acupuncture points away, and asked with a frown, "What's wrong with you girl? How can you seek death?"

As he spoke, he looked up and down, and frowned again.

Miss Zheng Qi turned her eyes leisurely back, only to see the man in front of her, about 30 years old, thin, dark, with a weathered look on his face, but his eyes were full of energy. He was looking her up and down, but there was no obscenity in his eyes. Some doubts.

She tried to die but couldn't find it, and instead met a strange man in this remote place. The last thing she wanted to meet at the moment was a strange man, she got up without saying a word, turned around and left.

The man stood up, didn't pull her, saw her walk a few steps, and suddenly asked, "Do you know Miss Zheng Qi?"

Miss Zheng Qi shook her body, she didn't look back, and her pace became faster and faster.

The man stared at her back, his eyes fell on the sapphire knot on her waist, and said: "I heard that the Zheng family has a well-known family, the young lady is like the young master, and she wears the sapphire decoration in ancient seal characters. The girl must be Miss Zheng Qi's sister. Under Mongolia Hu, passing by here, I brought some small gifts from Dige Li Rentang, and I want to ask the girl to pass them on to Miss Zheng Qi."

Meng Hu said, his black face turned red, and he knew that this request was a bit abrupt, he returned to Mongolia, passed by the Zheng Mansion, on a whim, climbed the wall to see his fiancée, and regretted it when he climbed the wall, so rash, He is also a well-educated scholarly family, so don't let meng lang's trip be underestimated by others. Just as he was about to leave, who knew someone would commit suicide, so how could he not care? It's just that I blushed when I said it at this moment, so I could only rub my hands and said in a sly way: "I know I shouldn't visit Zheng's mansion at this time, but I also want to take a look at Zheng's mansion, and the fragrance of Beauty Hall needs to be used as soon as possible, when I return to Mongolia I'm afraid the scent will be gone, so I..." He took another step forward, and said earnestly, "I don't know what's embarrassing for the girl, but I just need to let go of my heart..."

When he announced his name, Miss Zheng Qi turned around abruptly, biting her lower lip and looking at him. Hearing him rambling on a lot of things, and mentioning the Hall of Beauty twice, her complexion changed terribly, and she suddenly interrupted him , tremblingly said: "...Mr. Meng, I am Zheng Xuan."

"...you must know that the only one who dies through hardships through the ages..." Meng Hu was still persuading him, but he couldn't help being startled when he heard this sentence, and after thinking about it, he realized that his fiancée didn't have a single name of "Xuan"!

Then he realized that his fiancée was about to throw herself into a well just now!

What happened?

He froze there in astonishment, his heart was at a loss, the bamboo in front of him was verdant, and the woman in front of him was as bright as the moon, but that moon was also a pale moon, without the joy of reunion, with a curved string, what he saw was desolation and parting.

"Why..." he murmured, feeling bitter in his heart, does the Seventh Miss of the Zheng family just look down on such a reckless man like him?

He adores the woman from a scholarly family, and at that glance just now, he vaguely felt that there was a moonlight cast on his heart, so when he heard the name Zheng Xuan, his first reaction was ecstasy, but after the reaction, he was infinitely hurt.

The woman on the opposite side said faintly: "Do you want to know why I committed suicide...then help me kill her first..."
