Chapter 42 Helping with singing
Zuo Xiangning could feel Ling Xiao's eyes on her, but she chose to turn a blind eye.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with what she did.

Back in the room, she picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip, walked to Pan Cui, and sprayed it in her face.

"Pan Cui?" Zuo Xiangning called twice. Seeing that Pan Cui didn't respond at all, she turned around and asked the man standing by the door, "Why isn't she awake yet?"

"Maybe the knock was too heavy." Ling Xiao said nonchalantly, "You'll wake up in half an hour."

Zuo Xiangning said hurriedly: "Is there any way you can tell your people now not to hit Aunt Liu and the housekeeper too hard?"

"They have a sense of proportion." Ling Xiao touched his nose and did not say that he knocked Pancui on his own. The blow was a bit heavy. "They knew you wanted to catch a traitor and they were very accurate."

Zuo Xiangning walked to the door and nervously observed the quiet yards on the left and right.

"This is the Jingyin Temple. It's not just your family that lives here. If things really get serious, it won't be good for anyone in your family." Ling Xiao said with concern: "How about I have someone take them back to Zuofu quietly? ?”

"Let's stay here, it's not big or broken." Zuo Xiangning said quietly: "It just disturbed the Bodhisattva's peace. I hope the Bodhisattva won't blame me."

Ling Xiao understood that she wanted to make things worse so that neither Mrs. Zuo nor Zuo Yi'an had any room to maneuver.

He comforted him in a gentle voice: "Although everyone comes to pray for sutras and kneel before the Buddha, how many of them truly believe in it? If the Bodhisattva is really weird, he can't be blamed at all."

Zuo Xiangning said seriously: "I once truly believed it."

Zuo Xiangning did believe it in her previous life, but what did she get in the end?
Zuo Xiangning let out a long sigh, "But Bodhisattva didn't give me a chance to see what good will be rewarded with and evil will be rewarded with evil."

The sad look on Zuo Xiangning's face made Ling Xiao frown.

Just when he was about to ask in detail, he saw Zhang Rui's family hurriedly walked in from outside the courtyard, came to Zuo Xiangning's side, and whispered: "Girl, the people in Madam's room were secretly sent back to the house."

Zuo Xiangning nodded, "You stay with my wife. When the noise gets louder, you can come out again."

"Yes." The Zhang Rui family glanced at the tall man standing next to him with his hands behind his back, turned around and ran away in a hurry.

Zhang Tu was much more steady than his mother. He walked into the yard, stood two meters away from Zuo Xiangning, and whispered: "It's settled over there. Zhang Cheng has already gone to see Butler Mingwang."

"A quarter of an hour later, you light a fire in Aunt Liu's house. When there is light, ask Mingwang to rush in and put it out. Don't cause a fire. Remember to call Aunt Liu's name and make a louder noise. , lure the people in the old lady’s room over, and rush into the room with them.”

Zuo Xiangning finished her explanation and waited for Zhang Tu to leave. She turned around and went back to the room. She took off her cloak, untied her hair, and tied it up loosely. She took off her outer shirt and wore only her underwear. Then she put on her cloak. Put it on again.

Ling Xiao looked at her bumpy body under her thin clothes, and his eyes widened in surprise.

Is she pretending to have just woken up?

But does she know that she is a man, and should she be a little shy in front of her?

But Zuo Xiangning didn't think much about it at all.

She walked to the door, closed it, and looked at the yard next door through the crack.

"Your Majesty, please don't show up later." Zuo Xiangning said.

"How much hatred do you have with Aunt Liu?" Ling Xiao asked curiously.

"She brought the blame upon herself." Zuo Xiangning said coldly: "I am just reciprocating the courtesy, treating others in their own way."

Ling Xiao thinks she is right, but is it possible for a girl under 15 years old to take off their clothes and put the housekeeper under the same quilt?

After a while, there was a commotion in the yard next to her. Zuo Xiangning didn't rush out until Mother Wang's voice was heard.That sensitive speed is like a rabbit.

Ling Xiao was dumbfounded.

In the yard next door, Mother Wang called "Aunt Liu" as she opened the door. As soon as she entered the room, she saw two white bodies lying on the kang near the window under the bright firelight.

"Oh my God!" Mrs. Wang's eyes almost fell out of fear.

Mingwang, who came in the last step, stood next to Wang's mother, also stunned.

Zhang Tu put out the fire with a bucket, and Zhang Cheng lit the candle on the table.

The room darkened for a moment, then became bright again. Aunt Liu touched the back of her neck and slowly sat up from the kang.

"What are you doing..." Before Aunt Liu could finish her words, she noticed something strange. She screamed and picked up the quilt in front of her. Only then did she see the equally naked butler next to her.

The housekeeper just woke up with a confused look on his face. He looked at everyone and forgot to cover himself, "This... this..."

Jiang helped Mrs. Zuo quickly walk into the room and shouted sternly: "What's going on?"

Zuo Xiangning, who was walking behind, looked at the scene in front of her and glanced at Zhang Tu with satisfaction.

Zhang Tu pulled Mingwang and Zhang Cheng, and the three of them exited the room with their heads lowered.

The old lady Zuo looked at the scene in front of her and was so shocked that she almost dropped her jaw, "Liu Fengzhi, how dare you do such a thing behind my back?!"

"You go back first." Jiang was slightly shocked when she saw such a scene, but she quickly calmed down and asked Zuo Xiangning to exit first.

Zuo Xiangning nodded and left Zhang Rui's family to accompany Jiang.

"Old lady, things are not what you think, and I don't know what's going on." Aunt Liu climbed down from the bed and knelt at the feet of the old lady, and said in a confused voice: "The housekeeper and I really have nothing to do with each other. ...I have nothing to do with him..."

"I asked the housekeeper to go to Cangzhou. When he came back, he didn't come back to me first, but came to your room in the middle of the night. You said that you two have nothing to do with each other. Who would believe it?" Jiang interrupted her coldly and called the messenger of the Zhang Rui family. He winked and said, "Gag her mouth and lock her up first."

"Old lady, my aunt and I..." The housekeeper vaguely understood what was going on. He got up from the bed, grabbing his clothes and asking for an explanation.

Mingwang had already called the Zhang Tu brothers to come in, and immediately blocked the housekeeper's mouth and tied him up without even letting him wear any clothes.

"Old lady, this is the Jingyin Temple, surrounded by family members of various mansions. If such a scandal spreads, then our Zuofu will really become a joke in the whole capital." Jiang whispered in the ear of the old lady Zuo. said.

The old lady Zuo pursed her lips with an ugly face, stared at Aunt Liu resentfully, and said nothing.

Zuo Xiangning returned to her yard, looked at Ling Xiao who was still standing in the room, walked to him, and asked in a low voice: "Why hasn't the prince left yet?"

Ling Xiao took a deep breath, and his mind was filled with the familiar scent of jasmine, which wrapped around his heart in layers.

"The play has just begun, how can I leave first?" He flicked his clothes and walked out swaggeringly.

Zuo Xiangning hurriedly grabbed his clothes from behind and whispered: "Are you crazy? There are people outside now, what should you do if people see you?"

"What should be seen has been seen long ago, and what should not be seen will never be seen." Ling Xiao smiled at Zuo Xiangning, pulled out his sleeve from Zuo Xiangning's fingers, Walk out with your hands behind your back.

Zuo Xiangning followed him to the door and saw him turning to the yard next door. She hurriedly lowered her voice and said, "What are you doing?"

The man looked back at her and said in a low voice, "I'll help you finish the show."
