Chapter 41

Aunt Liu helped Old Mrs. Zuo into the youth courtyard.

"Shuang Rui is back? Where is the master? Why didn't the master come back?" Old Mrs. Zuo saw Shuang Rui clearly in the middle and was shocked: "What happened?"

Mrs. Jiang stepped forward to hold Old Mrs. Zuo's arm and said sadly, "Don't be anxious..."

When the old lady Zuo saw the tears in the corners of Jiang's eyes, she became even more panicked, "What happened?"

Jiang choked and repeated Shuangrui's words to the old lady.

The old lady Zuo rolled her eyes, fell back, and fainted.

Mrs. Jiang hurriedly asked people to carry the old lady back to Shi'an Hall in a sedan chair, but left Aunt Liu behind. "Three girls, don't go to Zhuangzi yet."

Aunt Liu ran to Yulanzhai with an uneasy expression.

It rained continuously for five days, but there was still no news from Yangzhou.

The entire Zuofu was just like the weather outside, lifeless, without any unnecessary sound.

The old lady Zuo couldn't help but asked Jiang to go to Prince Chu's Mansion, "Let Princess Chu talk to Prince Chu and see if she can help ask what's going on in Yangzhou? We can't just keep waiting like this." ?”

Zuo Xiangning stopped Jiang in secret, "Eldest sister is less than three months pregnant and the fetus is not yet firmly seated. If she is frightened, it is not a trivial matter."

"Then what should we do now?" Jiang stood at the door, looking at the pattering rain outside, "I don't know if it's raining in Yangzhou too."

"I gave Zhang Rui a 200-tael silver check and told him to send a message home when he arrived." Zuo Xiangning sighed secretly and comforted: "There is no news, maybe it is good news."

The mother and daughter were staring at the rain in a daze when they saw a woman running in from outside holding an umbrella.

"Madam, a letter from Yangzhou!"

Zuo Xiangning and Jiang hurriedly stepped out of the threshold and stood on the porch waiting.

The letter was written by Zuo Zimo. It was very brief, saying that he had not found his father, but he had heard from others that many people had been rescued. He and Zuo Ziteng were separately searching for him in the villages.

After reading the letter, the two looked up again, only to find that the sky had cleared up.

Jiang felt relieved and took Zuo Xiangning and said, "Let's go to Jingyin Temple to burn incense. If we can see Master Hongyi, you can also ask him to approve a hexagram for your father."

Aunt Liu heard that Jiang was going to Jingyin Temple, so she insisted on taking Zuo Xiangyu with her.

The next day, the female family members of Zuofu sat in five carriages and went to the Silent Temple in a mighty manner.

Mother Cai stayed at the house, and Zuo Xiangning brought Zhang Rui's family and her two sons with her.

At night, Zuo Xiangning tossed and turned in bed unable to sleep.

Her father did not fall into the water in her previous life. Could it be that her rebirth changed the fate of those around her?

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, wondering if other bad things would happen.

She got up with her clothes on and took Pancui to the main hall.

She knelt on the mat in front of the Buddha statue, clasped her hands, and said devoutly: "If there are any sins, I hope the Buddha can blame them all on this little girl."

She kowtowed three times on the futon before standing up.

"How much guilt can you bear?"

A male voice suddenly sounded from behind, startling Zuo Xiangning.

She turned around and saw a man dressed in black, Ling Xiao, walking from the shadows outside the door four or five steps away from her.

Isn't he leaving the capital?
Zuo Xiangning raised her hands and gathered her cloak together, and said, "I didn't expect that the Crown Prince would also be at the Silent Sound Temple."

"What happened to your Zuo family?" Ling Xiao looked at the red mark on Zuo Xiangning's forehead in confusion.

Is she stupid?
Does knocking hard mean you are sincere?

And why does this little woman, whom I haven’t seen for seven or eight days, seem to have a much smaller face with her fat face?

"All the female relatives came out to burn incense and worship Buddha, and they also wanted to meet Master Hongyi... Could it be to seek marriage for you?"

Zuo Xiangning's face sank slightly.

Although she didn't have a deep relationship with her father in both lives, the blood relationship was there. Her father's life and death were uncertain, so she couldn't joke about it.

"I don't have to worry about our family's affairs." Zuo Xiangning blessed him and walked quickly past him. "I saw a man entering the yard where your aunt Zuo lives." Ling Xiao suddenly said from behind her.

Zuo Xiangning turned around and asked, "Who is it?"

"I don't want to worry about your family's affairs." Ling Xiao sneered.

Zuo Xiangning glared at him, turned around and took two steps forward, then turned back and said, "Where is my girl?"

Ling Xiaofeng narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the little woman standing upside down with willow eyebrows in front of her.

"Let me ask you, where is my girl? Have you seen it?" Zuo Xiangning said anxiously.

"He was sent back by my people." Ling Xiao said reluctantly.

Zuo Xiangning turned around, picked up her cloak, and ran towards the small courtyard where she lived.

Ling Xiao gritted his teeth and followed her.

Zuo Xiangning quietly ran back to where she lived, woke up Zhang Rui's family, and whispered: "You quietly go find Zhang Tu and Zhang Cheng, and try to find a way to see if someone has entered Aunt Liu's yard." people."

"I'm going now." Zhang Rui's family quickly put on their clothes and ran out to find someone.

Zuo Xiangning returned to her room and saw Pan Cui lying on the footrest outside, motionless.

Zuo Xiangning stretched out her hand and tried it under her nose. Her breathing was normal.

She was not in a hurry to wake up Pancui.

She was waiting quietly in the room for Zhang Rui's family.

She believed what Ling Xiao said, but she didn't know who the man was.

After less than a cup of tea, Zhang Rui's family and Zhang Tu walked in together.

Zhang Rui's family stood nervously by the door. Zhang Tu whispered: "It's the housekeeper."

Zuo Xiangning's face changed slightly.

The housekeeper actually ran back from Cangzhou!
"I heard the housekeeper say from the back window that he wanted to put someone into Madam's room, and also mentioned adultery..." Zhang Tu asked in a panic: "What should I do now?"

Zuo Xiangning's hands were tightly clasped together, she was trying to frame Jiang's family!
Zuo Xiangning said to Zhang Rui's family: "Bring a few trustworthy people and block the yard where Aunt Liu lives. No one can be let out."

But as soon as Zuo Xiangning finished speaking, she felt that this "trustworthy person" might not be easy to find.

"How many more trustworthy people can you find now?" Zuo Xiangning asked Zhang Tu.

"Shall I go get Mingwang?" Zhang Tu was confused.

"There is no time now," Zuo Xiangning said: "Zhang Cheng will continue to watch there. You can follow me to the madam's yard first."

Zuo Xiangning said that and was about to walk out, but when she walked to the door, she saw Ling Xiao standing by the door, looking like a door god.

Zhang Tu and Zhang Ruijia were startled when they saw a black shadow standing there, and they all blocked in front of Zuo Xiangning.

Before they could speak, Zuo Xiangning asked in a low voice: "Why are you here?"

"I have people." Ling Xiao looked down at her, "They are all trustworthy."

Zuo Xiangning is in urgent need of a few men who are strong and preferably good at kung fu.

"I want four people." Zuo Xiangning only hesitated for a moment, then said: "Two of them went to my mother's yard with Zhang Rui's family, caught the man and sent him away. The other two went to Aunt Liu with Zhang Tu 's yard."

"Okay." Ling Xiao raised his hand and whistled softly to his mouth without saying anything, and four men in black quietly landed in front of the door.

Zuo Xiangning first told Zhang Rui's family: "If there is someone else, let them kidnap them. No matter whether they live or die, they can't say anything."

Zhang Rui's family stood there like a fool, her mind was already in a state of confusion. Her son pulled her sleeves at the side, and she realized what she was doing and ran out in a hurry.

Zuo Xiangning said to Zhang Tu again: "Knock the housekeeper and Aunt Liu unconscious, and then throw them into a quilt."

Zhang Tu blinked twice and said "yes" unnaturally.

Zuo Xiangning thought for a moment, then called Zhang Tu, "By the way, don't forget to take off their clothes."
