Seeing Aunt Liu, Old General Shen knelt down again and said, "Get up first, Xi'er is a descendant of my Shen family. As a grandfather, I will definitely uphold justice for him. I will leave Shen Wu to you to investigate. Xi'er is How did you get poisoned, and how did that servant girl throw herself into the well? You must give me an explanation within two days."

"Yes, general, what should we do with Xiaohuan's body?" Shen Butler asked respectfully.

"Does she have a family?" Old General Shen asked.

"It seems that there are two older brothers and an old mother." Butler Shen replied.

"Give her mother a hundred taels of silver for a proper burial, she can be regarded as dying for Xi'er." Old General Shen understood that Xiaohuan's death was a mystery, and giving her family 100 taels of silver would be regarded as helping Shen and Xi'er.

After the old general Shen gave his orders, he continued, "Xi'er was poisoned this time and hurt his body. The location of the yard is too dilapidated and it's not easy to recuperate. Let him live in the previous yard. I remember that there is still a small courtyard next to the Hexia yard. He moved there first."

The east courtyard of the General's Mansion is full of unmarried men from the Shen family. Shen and Xia are the most favored here, and the courtyard next to him must be the best. Shen Hexi got back to his previous treatment because of a blessing in disguise.

When Princess Huiyang heard that General Shen said that he wanted to change the yard for Shen Hexi, she did not obstruct it, but said very gently, "Xi'er is also unlucky, and he suffered such a crime at a young age. I will pick the best things in his yard. Even if the Empress Dowager blames me in the future, I will bear it." As she spoke, Princess Huiyang wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

The reason why she agreed so readily was because she knew that Shen Hexi and Ben would not live to move out of that small courtyard. She understood that Qiqiao Linglong was very poisonous, but she agreed with Shen Hexi to change the courtyard because Aunt Chu begged her a few days ago Wanting to change the yard for Third Young Master, I just took this opportunity to tidy up that yard and give it to Third Young Master.

Aunt Chu is the dowry maid of Princess Huiyang. When she was pregnant with Shen and Xia, she was afraid that some other charmer would seduce Shen Yunping's heart, so she gave her dowry maid to him. After all, the two grew up together with deep feelings in this deep house compound. In the future, she can have a caregiver, which is much better than Shen Yunping bringing back a strange aunt for her.

"Okay, this matter is settled like this, Yunping, come to my study, I have something to tell you." Old General Shen got up and walked out of Fulu Hall first.

Shen Yunping responded and prepared to send Aunt Liu back to her yard first, but she didn't expect that Aunt Liu's body softened and passed out as soon as the two of them stepped out of the front door of Fulu Hall.

Aunt Liu fainted and there was a rush of war. After the doctor took her pulse and said that she was more than two months pregnant, Shen Yunping was completely dumbfounded. He thought that Shen Hexi would be his youngest son. Come a child.

Princess Huiyang asked the doctor to be sent out, and she took a deep look at Aunt Liu who was still in a coma with her beautiful eyes, turned around with a sneer and left her yard.Even if she is pregnant so what, she will not let this child be born.

It was already an hour later when Shen Yunping went to Old General Shen's study. During the period, he went to Shen Hexi's small courtyard to take a look. Seeing that Shen Hexi looked peaceful and there was nothing serious, he went to Old General Shen's study without stopping.

"I went to meet Xi'er." Old General Shen was sitting at the desk and writing with a brush. He didn't even lift his head when he heard Shen Yunping come in.

"Yes, Xi'er has taken a medicinal bath and is sleeping." Shen Yunping knew that Aunt Liu was pregnant again, and that her youngest son was fine, so she relaxed and spoke with joy.

"You can still come out happily, do you know what kind of poison Xi'er is poisoned by?"

"Isn't it an ordinary poison?"

"I'll call Doctor Li for ordinary poison. It's not like you don't know what's going on now. Xi'er has Qiqiaolinglong poison."

As soon as Old General Shen finished speaking, Shen Yunping asked in disbelief, "Qiqiao Linglong Poison, what about Xi'er?"

"I called you here to talk about this matter. There is a piece of jade pendant on Xi'er's body that happens to have a fragrance pill in it. Don't you, a father, know where the fragrance pill came from?" Old General Shen accepted it. Seeing that Shen Yunping was still there, the brush dropped the pen in his hand and sighed, "Who do you think you are like? What else do you know besides being able to fight and marry your aunt at home?"

"Father, it's not like you don't know that the princess wants to have a thousand eyes staring at me. I can't treat Xi'er any better. Since he moved to that small courtyard, I haven't dared to visit him at all, for fear of irritating that jealous woman again. "Shen Yunping was also surprised that his youngest son, who was only three years old, was short and fat, and usually only stayed in his own small courtyard. Where did he get that jade pendant.

"No prospect." Old General Shen rolled his eyes at Shen Yunping and continued to ask, "Could it be that Aunt Liu gave it to him? It's also possible that the Liu Family Fort has been in the medicinal material business for generations and could get the Jiexiang Pill."

"Since Qinghe married me, she has rarely walked around Liujiabao. The first two times when Liu Qinglei came, he stopped by twice when he went to the Prince's Mansion, and I was there both times when he came, and I didn't see him give up. Xier’s jade pendant, but I have given you a lot of medical books and martial arts secrets.” Although Shen Yunping is a general and has tens of thousands of soldiers under him even if he doesn’t fight, he is really afraid of his brother-in-law.

Although his brother-in-law is much younger than him, he is simply a big devil. I heard that once his medicinal materials were robbed by bandits, his brother-in-law brought a group of men without saying anything The old nest was picked, and none of the more than 200 bandits on the mountain were killed by him, and the blood stained most of the cottage.

Just this ruthlessness made him, a general who leads troops to fight, admire him very much.

"If Aunt Liu didn't give it to Xi'er, then he couldn't have picked it up himself." Old General Shen asked suspiciously.

Shen Hexi, who had already woken up, felt dizzy, and before he opened his eyes, he called out, "Xiaohuan, I want to drink water."

"Master Xi, you're awake." Bai Qing stayed by Shen Hexi's side all the time, seeing that he woke up and wanted to drink water, she quickly poured him a glass of honey water.

"Aunt Qing, why are you here? Where's Xiaohuan?" Although Shen Hexi was weak all over, there was no problem with his ears, and he immediately knew it was Bai Qing's voice.

When Bai Qing saw Shen Hexi asking about Xiaohuan's eyes, her eye circles turned red. She knew Xiaohuan since she came to the General's Mansion. They usually have a good relationship. Bai Qing always treated Xiaohuan as her younger sister. Just this morning she met After passing Xiaohuan, he also scolded Xiaohuan for being so clumsy that he could burn the young master's face to dry.

Thinking back now that the last time she spoke to Xiaohuan was to scold her, Bai Qing felt very uncomfortable.

"Xiaohuan, she won't serve the young master anymore. During this period of time, the servants are serving the young master. After a few days, the uncle will send a martial artist to serve as the young master." Bai Qing said with a sob.

"Xiaohuan is serving me well, why do you want to change? I don't want a servant, I want Xiaohuan." Seeing that Bai Qing was crying, Shen Hexi suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, hoping it wasn't what he thought.

Bai Qing didn't want to tell Shen Hexi that Xiaohuan was dead, and wanted to be perfunctory, but his young master lied to her and told the truth very quickly.

"How come, Xiaohuan told me a few days ago that her mother was going to tell her about a marriage. She was a guard in our mansion. I went to see that young man secretly with her, and she asked me if he was okay. It's beautiful, why did she fall into the well, it's impossible, it's impossible." Shen Hexi was a little crazy, he struggled to get up, but fell over and over again.

"Young Master, don't cry. The old general has sent Steward Shen to investigate the matter thoroughly. He will definitely catch the murderer." Bai Qing hugged Shen Hexi who was plopping on the bed and started crying too. , in case something happens, how can she explain it to the young lady.

"I'm not crying. I'm going to see Xiaohuan. Aunt Qing, please let me see Xiaohuan." Shen Hexi's face was full of tears. Xiaohuan is his maid, rather she is more like Shen Hexi's sister.

"Master, you don't want to go if you are still sick. I'm afraid Xiaohuan has been carried out at this time." Bai Qing wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, from Bai Qing's point of view, Shen Hexi is still a child after all, she is afraid that he will see Xiaohuan Ring's dead body will scare.

"Aunt Qing, please, I've always regarded Xiaohuan as my sister, so let me give her a ride, okay?" Shen Hexi, who was already weak, didn't look angry even after Xiaohuan died.

Bai Qing bit her lip and sighed, "Master, I'll take you out later, but you can't talk and let people know." Bai Qing, who is also a maid, was moved with compassion. No matter how Xiaohuan died, she and the young master master Just let him go and see her off.

"Okay, I'll just take a look at Xiaohuan and come back." Shen Hexi's eyes were red and tears were streaming down his face. He really felt sorry for Xiaohuan. It was as if he was blocked by a stone, and he couldn't breathe. At this moment, he really felt the ruthlessness of this world.

Bai Qing dressed Shen Hexi in a thick padded coat and a cloak to wrap him tightly, leaving only a pair of red and swollen eyes outside.

Xiaohuan was just a maidservant. After her death, her body was carried to an abandoned yard not far from the corner gate. Because housekeeper Shen wanted to investigate Xiaohuan's throwing into a well, her body was not carried out of the house immediately.

When Shen Hexi and Xiaohuan passed by, there was not even a servant guarding the abandoned yard. Bai Qing was a little scared looking at the gloomy yard covered with withered grass, and asked softly, "Master, do we really want to go in?"

"Aunt Qing, don't be afraid, Xiaohuan is so nice, she won't scare us."

"Ah."

Shen Hexi was carried by Bai Qing into the room where the coffin was parked. In the empty room there was only a thin black coffin. The mat was carried out as soon as it was rolled, without even a thin coffin.

Bai Qing didn't dare to stay here, she didn't even dare to let Shen Hexi go to the ground.Standing in front of the coffin with Shen Hexi in her arms, she saw that Xiaohuan's wet clothes had been changed and her hair had been combed again, she couldn't help but shed tears again.

"Master, you see that Xiaohuan is walking very peacefully, you should be relieved."

"Aunt Qing was the one who killed Xiaohuan. If Xiaohuan hadn't followed me, she wouldn't have died so young." Shen Hexi stared blankly at the young girl lying in the coffin. Today's weather is so good that she should be standing in the sun Live happily instead of lying in this gloomy coffin, Xiaohuan died because of him, but he can't do anything now.

"Master, this has nothing to do with you, this is Xiaohuan's life."

Bai Qing hugged Shen Hexi in the abandoned courtyard and left in a hurry for less than a cup of tea. Their lives as maids were worthless, and Xiaohuan was lucky to have a master like Shen Hexi .
