first princess

Chapter 15
Shui Linglong wrote down a big "Jing" character, and did not answer, as if she had really fully integrated into the world of calligraphy.Xun Feng once laughed at her: "You can become the most powerful sniper, but you can never be a first-class calligrapher." In order to overthrow his words, she practiced day and night. After more than ten years, she really couldn't compete with Shui Lingxi Down.It can be seen from this that Xun Feng's vision of seeing people is really first-class and vicious.In this life, she also loves to practice calligraphy, but not for the sake of surpassing Shui Lingxi. Everyone has their own strengths, but comparing one's weaknesses to others' strengths is purely to make herself suffer.

Shui Linglong wrote the word "Ning" again, and glanced at Liu Lu, Liu Lu's heart was trembling for a while, suddenly recalling the last time she was slapped, she quickly lowered her eyes and said: "This slave is talking too much, please forgive me, miss." crime."

At this moment, Mother Zhao pushed the door open and entered with a panicked expression: "Miss! Someone accidentally rolled down the steps while carrying the cabinet in your yard. It seemed that he couldn't fall clearly, but he refused to let him ask for a doctor." ! Go and have a look!"

Shui Linglong paused her pen, looked at Zhao's mother, and said with a half-smile, "Mom can take care of things in the yard, I can't help much."

Zhao's mother smiled sheepishly: "That's not what you said! After all, what happened in Miss's yard, of course Miss should go and have a look, and by the way, check to see if there is anything missing in the house, right?"

Does this mean she has to go?
Shui Linglong put down her pen: "Alright then."

Zhao's mother lowered her eyes, hiding the flashing smile, stepped forward, and took the initiative to help Shui Linglong. Just as she walked to the door, Shui Linglong paused and said with a smile: "I'm like a toilet, Mrs. Zhao please Hold on."

Mother Zhao didn't suspect him, so she waited outside the door for a while, and Shui Linglong came out about half an hour later.

As soon as he entered Lingxiang Courtyard, the injured servant rolled and knelt down in front of Shui Linglong, trying to hug her leg, but was stopped by Ye Mao sharp-eyed, and his hand was thrown away. , but he didn't give up just yet, but started to cry whimperingly: "Linglong, I finally met you! I have been looking for you so hard during this period of time!"

"Bold! Who would dare to call Missy by her first name?" Ye Mao said sharply, and kicked that person upside down.

Mother Zhao hurriedly asked: "Miss, do you know him?"

Shui Linglong stared at her with surprise on her face: "Luo Cheng? Why are you here?"

Not only did she know this Luo Cheng, but she also had some connections with him. He was Mama Cui's youngest son, and he worked as the accountant in the Zhuangzi. Everyone has seen it, and you can find out a thing or two by sending someone to check it.But what they didn't know was that the reason why Luo Cheng was nice to her was to trick her into bed!It's just that he has always used the method of coaxing, and never forced it, and after he was reborn, he sternly warned him once, so that he would not dare to appear in front of her again, so she didn't do anything to him.But now, he actually ran to the Shangshu Mansion in the capital?No, it was Qin Fangyi who invited him here!No wonder it's a fish tank and a termite's, but it's just to give Luo Cheng a chance to enter the inner house.

Luo Cheng burst into tears: "Linglong, I've been thinking about you every day since you left! I know I'm not good enough for you, but I really can't let go of our past! As soon as I heard that the Shangshufu was recruiting, I came here , I actually don't expect you to marry me, but I'm terminally ill and I don't have many days left to live, I just want to see you one last time before I die, and it's worth our...so many years of friendship!"

His sincere words, coupled with his handsome and delicate face, made everyone in the yard change their expressions.A terminally ill man wants to see the woman he loves for the last time, who can say that he has ulterior motives, not deep love?
Shui Linglong looked at Luo Cheng, and said calmly: "Luo Cheng, there is a price to be paid for slandering the daughter of the Minister's Mansion, have you thought about it?"

The voice was very soft, as if a ray of wind was blowing by, but this wind was definitely blown from hell. Luo Cheng's scalp was numb, and he shivered, subconsciously trying to escape, Zhao's mother pretended to be angry and said : "Don't slander the young lady! The young lady is discussing marriage, how can she get married if you damage her reputation like this?"

At this time, the old lady, Qin Fangyi, Que Shi, Qin Zhixiao and Shui Lingyu were also shocked.

A smile flashed across Qin Fangyi's eyes, but she quickly said harshly: "Bold and slavish! How dare you damage the reputation of Shang Shufu's daughter! Come here! Beat this nonsense slave to me!"

Luo Chengteng stood up: "I'm not lying! I really hit it off with Linglong, but we couldn't be together due to our status! I didn't intend to ruin her reputation, it's just that I'm dying soon, and I just thought about the last thing on my mind." !"

After finishing speaking, he rushed towards Shui Linglong again: "Linglong!"

Ye Mao kicked his two front teeth.

Zhao's mother pulled Shui Linglong back quickly, but during the tug and pull, a small piece of paper flew out of Shui Linglong's sleeve.

Mother Zhao quickly picked it up and handed it to Qin Fangyi.

After Qin Fangyi saw it, her face changed suddenly: "The fragrance of red lotus root is fragrant and the jade is in autumn. Lightly untie the clothes, and go to the orchid boat alone. Who in the cloud will send the brocade book? When the geese return, the moon is full on the west building. The flowers are floating and the water flows by itself. One kind of lovesickness, two places of worry. There is no way to get rid of this feeling, so I lower my brows, but my heart is on my mind. My God! Mother... How can there be such a poem on Linglong's body?"

Luo Cheng was ecstatic, lost his front teeth, and spoke abruptly, but it did not affect his speed of speech: "Linglong! So you have been carrying the poems I wrote for you with you! I really die without regrets!"

The old lady frowned, and her deep eyes fell on Shui Linglong's plain face, expecting her to give a reasonable explanation.

Unexpectedly, before Shui Linglong could open her mouth, an exclamation pierced the sky.

Everyone followed the sound and looked sideways, but they saw Shui Lingxi, Shui Hangge, and Prince Yunli standing at the door at some point, and beside them, there was a man with a beautiful appearance and a magnificent appearance, who was the son of Prince Pingnan—— Xun Feng.

Shui Linglong never expected that the first meeting after rebirth would be on such an occasion, her heart felt like a landmine had exploded, her flesh and blood were bloody, and every breath was painful!
"Daddy, will you stay with Qing'er and mother for the rest of your life?"

"Of course, Dad will never abandon you."

But turning around, he went to the battle, and before he left, he abolished her position, cut off her legs, cut off her tongue, and let Shui Lingxi throw Qing'er into the sea of ​​fire...

Xun Feng, I don't want to hate you. If you only hurt me, I might not hate you, but why do you treat my Qing'er like that?That's my three-year-old Qing'er!

Do you know what Qing'er looked like when she was burned?
Did you know that Qing'er spent five years in rot?

Shui Linglong lowered her eyes, bit by bit suppressing the overwhelming hatred back to the bottom of her heart, only then did she feel the blood flow again.There were two days left before Ruixue Villa gave her the prize, but Xun Feng came to the door in person. This is really... so interesting!

Xun Feng covered his mouth with his fist and coughed for a while. Everyone knew that he was soaked in a medicine jar and would be very weak every winter, so he seldom went out in cold weather, but today the prince received a He followed Shui Lingxi's invitation, maybe subconsciously, he wanted to meet the noble person who made his life come true.Looking at it this way, it was...too shocking!
There was a trace of coldness in Yun Li's warm eyes, staring at Luo Cheng and Shui Linglong without saying a word.

Shui Lingxi was overjoyed, her uncle and cousin not only bought an identical parrot, but also brought a pair of rare white-feathered red-eyed canaries, she immediately sent a message to the prince, inviting him to come and watch, But in fact, what she really wanted to invite him to watch was this good play by Shui Linglong!

Shui Hangge's face turned green. Even if Linglong couldn't be the crown prince's main concubine, he had actually considered letting her be the crown prince's side concubine. No one in the capital would dare to marry her!

Shui Linglong looked at Luo Cheng steadfastly: "You keep saying you like me, and you didn't mean to ruin my reputation on purpose, so what do you do? You can be in charge of the accountant, not to mention that you are very talented, and you have read a lot. Years of sages, don't you understand what kind of bad influence your actions today will have on me, a woman who has not left the cabinet?"

Luo Cheng's legs trembled from Shui Linglong's eyes, which were darker than purgatory ghosts, and he suddenly forgot most of the lines he had practiced countless times: "I...I can't control myself!"

"Ha!" Shui Linglong laughed mockingly, "What a person who cannot control himself, you are so alive and kicking when you have a terminal illness, how dare you ask Mr. Luo what kind of disease you have?"

Luo Cheng turned his face away: "Anyway, it's terminally ill! The doctor said, I... I'm not a doctor!"

Shui Linglong clapped her hands, pretending to be puzzled and said: "Is that so, but I don't remember how kind you are to me, you... are just talking nonsense?"

Luo Cheng was so excited that his head became hot: "Linglong, after all these years, don't you still understand my feelings for you? When others are giving you bad looks in Zhuangzi, I'm the only one who chops firewood and carries water for you; you and Zhong Mom lived in a leaky house, so I found you a rain cloth; once you and Mama Zhong were hungry for three days, it was I who secretly sent you a basket of steamed buns, have you forgotten?"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was shocked!

What kind of life did Shui Linglong live in Zhuangzi?
Qin Fangyi's face turned pale. How could this Luo Cheng, who had done more than succeed in success, say such things?She completely forgot who found Luo Cheng, and who ordered him to destroy Shui Linglong's reputation at all costs.

Yun Li's eyes dimmed, and his fists were clenched.

Compared with Shui Linglong's situation, Xun Feng immediately noticed Yunli's strangeness, Yunli seemed to be interested in Shui Linglong.

From the moment Shui Hangge saw Linglong's patched shirt, she knew that after Dong Jiaxue's death, Linglong's life might not be easy, but she never thought it would be so sad!In my heart, I couldn't help feeling a little more dissatisfied with this first wife.

Qin Fangyi subconsciously wanted to abandon Luo Cheng as a pawn in order to preserve her image as a good wife and loving mother for many years, but soon she turned around and sacrificed a little bit of her own image. It would be worth it if she could solve Shui Linglong, she gritted her teeth, No objection was made.

It was Shui Linglong who opened her mouth: "Father, at first I thought that those servants dared to neglect me like this because of my mother's instigation, but since I returned to the Shangshu Mansion, my mother has offered food and drink to me. Jewelry and clothing are also much better than other concubines, I think there must be evil slaves enriching their own pockets and cheating, and I hope my father will not wrong my mother."

This kind of whitewashing is not suitable for Shui Hangge or the old lady, but the pain lord's statement is different.Shui Hangge and the old lady glanced at Shui Linglong approvingly, they knew the truth in their minds, it was hard for the child to be so knowledgeable that he didn't disgrace Shang Shufu because of personal grievances.Since you know the general idea, how can you mess around with servants?

The old lady said in a deep voice: "This matter is strange! From my point of view, a boy's one-sided words can't be counted. I don't know what he has eaten. Duty, how dare you take credit for it? Still trying to become the son-in-law of the Shangshu Mansion? It’s a daydream!"

Luo Cheng plopped down on the ground, looked at the old lady, and said sincerely: "Old lady! If Linglong doesn't like me, why would she carry the letter I wrote to her with her?"

The old lady was dumbfounded.

"I wrote that letter to Linglong!" Qin Zhixiao took a step forward and broke the strange silence. He didn't know whether it was anger or embarrassment, his face was flushed, "Luo Cheng, I don't care if you eat wrong What kind of medicine is here to frame Linglong, but I tell you clearly, I wrote that letter to Linglong! It has nothing to do with you!"

Shui Lingyu's heart skipped a beat, feeling like a stone was being thrown on her.

The faces of the servants changed again and again, why did they become Master Biao again?First hanging out with the servants, and then being ambiguous with the young master Biao, is there really something wrong with the eldest lady's character?
Shui Linglong frowned suspiciously, did Qin Zhixiao really help her or did she add insult to injury?If it's the former, this cousin is really stupid; if it's the latter, his disguise is a bit scary.

Of course, she would not be led by this sudden change, she asked Luo Cheng: "You said you wrote the letter, when did you write it, can you remind me?"

Luo Cheng's eyeballs rolled around. To prove that the two of them had been in love for a long time, he said: "Half a year ago!"

"Half a year ago, I went back to the mansion two months ago, so you wrote it for me in Zhuangzi." Shui Linglong smiled and looked at Yunli, "I have heard that His Royal Highness is very good at calligraphy. Your Highness, check to see if the ink on this paper is half a year old."

As soon as the words fell, someone stepped forward to take the note from Qin Fangyi's hand, and handed it to Yun Li.

After Yun Li looked at it, he frowned: "I don't dare to say the date, but the top-quality Yangzhou ink is used on this paper. Yangzhou ink can only be used by the nobles in the capital. I don't know when Shui Shangshu's family became rich. Even a small Zhuangzi can afford it."

Shui Hangge was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, Yangzhou ink was so expensive that he was reluctant to buy it, and the Yangzhou ink used in the mansion was a gift from the prince.Luo Cheng insisted that the letter was written to Linglong in Zhuangzi, but obviously there was no such ink in Zhuangzi, so Luo Cheng was lying!
"Cough, cough..." Xun Feng coughed for a while, and said calmly, "It seems that a slave is not enough to get things done."

Shui Hangge's eyebrows twitched when he heard this, and he looked at Luo Cheng coldly: "Speak! Who ordered you to frame the eldest lady? If you dare not tell, I will beat you to death!"

Qin Fangyi was drenched in cold sweat. Originally, Luo Cheng was able to frame Shui Linglong, but Luo Cheng was surrounded by Shui Linglong's three or two sentences, which not only exposed the fact that she treated the concubine harshly, but also revealed a Big loophole!It seems that only the last set of backup plans can be implemented!

She gestured to Luo Cheng.

Luo Cheng understood, and plopped down on the ground: "Don't beat me to death! I...I was also forced to do nothing! Master...Master, you...you won't die if you walk around me, I will just say..."

"You dog slave! How dare you bargain?" Shui Hangge kicked over, and Luo Cheng lay on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, "Anyway, I'm dead, it doesn't matter if I say it or not, I'm just a selfish person Yes, sir, don't say things like threatening me with my family."

"You..." Shui Hangge was so angry that he was speechless.

Qin Fangyi tugged at his sleeve, he held back his anger and said, "Okay! You just have to tell the truth, and I'll keep you alive."

Luo Cheng kowtowed, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes... Aunt Zhou ordered me to destroy Missy's reputation! Aunt Zhou said that Missy framed Miss Fourth, and she wants to teach Missy a lesson!"

He bit down the word "framed", which undoubtedly charged Shui Linglong for framing a concubine's younger sister, and if it spread, it was also a demerit.

Aunt Zhou, who heard the commotion from a distance, also ran over to join in the fun, hadn't stepped into the courtyard yet, she was so angry that Luo Cheng's false accusation rolled her eyelids, she almost fainted!
Gao Mama couldn't stand it anymore. She knew that Aunt Zhou would attract a lot of red eyes once she revealed that she was pregnant, but she didn't expect that the other party would be so vicious. She was not afraid of other people's troubles, and she would die at worst!She was furious, took off her shoes, and slapped Luo Cheng's face, cursing at the same time: "You are a fool, you dare to frame my aunt! Slap your head to death!"

Aunt Zhou walked up to Shui Hangge, knelt down, and cried like rain: "Master, you want to make the decision for the maidservant! The maidservant is so focused on raising the baby, how could she go to frame the eldest lady?"

Although she did have this idea after the eldest lady rejected her surrender, she didn't do it after all, didn't she?
Shui Linglong looked around, taking in everyone's expressions. Shui Lingyu became angry because Qin Zhixiao stood up for her; the fire was on fire, and it affected Aunt Zhou again; The grievances of the concubine, and the notoriety of framing the concubine's sister.With such scheming and calculations, it's no wonder Dong Jiaxue can't beat Qin Fangyi.
