Rouge wrong

As soon as the few people left, Shen Cuo immediately frowned, and said angrily: "Hmph, why did I search for Daya Wang for so long but couldn't find it, and the clues were broken several times when there were signs. Mischief."

With a smile on her face, Hua Nongying looked at Shen Cuo lovingly as if looking at a younger generation: "Young master, don't be angry, I didn't know you were looking for Wutong. She was sold as a thin horse to those shadow brothels for Jiangnan officialdom. , Mingying and I thought those people were looking for her, so we tried our best to eliminate her trace."

Shen Cuo didn't believe it, but he didn't pursue it.

"I'm too lazy to care whether your words are true or not, but this Huo Wutong seems to be very talented, and Huo Mingying is quite ambitious, what are your plans?"

"No matter how ambitious he is, it is only for the sake of being a righteous faction. There are many internal struggles in the martial arts. Without the Tianming Sect, the martial arts alliance will naturally collapse.

The Qianzheng Sect wants to maintain the position of the number one sect, but there are other sects eyeing it, the court deliberately suppresses it, and there are young disciples who are not accepted, so he has a lot of troubles. "

Shen Cuo shook his head, puzzled and said: "The purpose of being in the martial arts is to be wanton and unrestrained, why are they all such trivial matters when you come to them?

It would be a ghost if you can still improve your skills in this way, no wonder these decent people are vulnerable. "

Hua Nongying seemed to agree, nodded and said: "What the young master said is true. It's no wonder that for so many years, many martial arts sects, large and small, have been suppressed by the Tianming Sect. If the imperial court did not intervene, I'm afraid there would be nothing wrong now." Change."

"Oh, what you said is none of your business. If you and my mother hadn't been in the way, how could my aunt, me, and the Tianming Sect have ended up like this?"

"The young master is now the princess, and the leader doesn't have to fight anymore, isn't it good?"

"My aunt and I have become birds in mother's cage, what good is there? Don't forget what you promised once. If Huo Mingying dares to make trouble, I will personally carry out your punishment of apostasy."

Shen Cuo spoke fiercely, but Hua Nongying's expression did not change, she still said kindly: "Young master, as a former attendant of the saintess, even though I have been doing decent work for many years, I still regard the saintess as the most important person in my heart.

In terms of loyalty to the saint, I am no different from Xie Yu. This time I came to Beijing to help you. "

Shen mistakenly heard her mention Jieyu, and his expression softened a little.

"If you weren't Xie Yu's aunt, do you think I would talk to you so nicely?

There is no need to say whether we believe or not trust each other, but we are just using each other. "

Hua Nongying smiled faintly, did not answer, and asked instead: "How is Xie Yu's child now? I heard that she has been at the eldest princess's residence for several years."

"She's fine, don't worry about it."

"I'm not worried about her, I just want to remind the young master that my own people can't be raised outside for too long, otherwise my heart will become wild."

Shen Cuo sneered: "Oh? Then you probably don't know where your heart has gone."

Hua Nongying shook her head: "I'm different, my heart has always been on the saint...Young master, you won't understand."

Shen Cuo has very complicated feelings for Hua Nongying, and the two of them are not very close.

But when she was poisoned and almost captured alive, it was Hua Nongying who appeared and secretly helped her escape.

It was only then that she knew that Huo Mingying's wife was actually her aunt's maid.Moreover, it was Xie Yu's aunt who was said to have run away from religion.

Three generations of the Hua family belonged to the Tianming sect. Hua Nongying's brother and sister-in-law died fighting against the barbarians. After Hua Nongying betrayed the Tianming sect, her parents committed suicide one after another, leaving Hua Jieyu alone.

Shen Yunpo took pity on Hua Jieyu when she was young, so he spared her punishment, gave her Hua's surname, and chose her as Shen Cuo's maid.

Shen Cuo also knew about this matter, but because Shen Yunpo forbade everyone to discuss it, he didn't know it in detail until that time when he met Hua Nongying.

Hua Nongying not only helped her, but also seemed to have a deep affection for Tianmingjiao and her aunt.

Shen Cuo is not without doubts about this, but Tianming's congregation has always respected the leader and saintess, and Shen Yunpo is very prestigious in the church, so Shen Cuo just pretends to be Hua Nongying and still misses the old love.

However, that was just her wishful thinking in the past, now that she has understood Liu Rongzhi's views on Shen Yunpo, when she looked at Hua Nongying's attitude again, she couldn't help but suddenly realized.

"You—" Shen Cuo's face changed drastically, he got up and said angrily, "Hua Nongying, what do you mean?"

She has become a frightened bird now, and any disturbance is enough for her to think in that direction.

Even if Hua Nongying is Huo Mingying's wife and Huo Zisu's mother, she still cannot escape the charm of her aunt in her eyes.

"It seems that the young master has grown a lot in the past two years."

Shen Cuo's eyes were about to burst, and he said with a ferocious expression: "You better not mean that, my aunt, who is like a fairy, is being watched and coveted by you mortals and villains."

Hua Nongying shook her head, sighed and said: "Young master, you really don't understand that I am different from your mother, I don't want to possess the saint.

She is the saint of Tianming Sect. She was not supposed to be polluted by the dust of the world, but by accident, she was involved in the chaos of the world, the struggle for power and ambition, and the grievances of your parents.

I am helping the imperial court not to destroy Tianming Sect, but to free the saint.

You are the niece of the saint without ever knowing her.To her, whether it is the position of the leader or the members of the Tianming sect, they are nothing but a burden. "

Shen Cuo's eyes widened, watching her without speaking for a long time, as if he was stunned by these words.

"Have you ever seen the saint laugh? Have you seen her cry? Have you seen her troubled?"

Hua Nong Image recalled the past, with a look of nostalgia on his face, "I have seen it. Just like Xie Yu understands and loves you, I also understand and love the saint.

She has the most sincere heart of a child, but her heart is broken by the closest and most trusted person.

Just like what I said at the beginning, I did not leave Tenmyoko to betray the Holy Maiden, but to save her.The position of leader is a shackle to her, and your mother is poison. "

Shen Cuo's eyes moved slightly, his expression gradually calmed down, and then he slowly sat back in his seat.

"Leaving aside other things, my mother...is really blind to poison."

Hua Nongying smiled and said: "What I told you about the past is the truth, the Liu family is treacherous, Liu Rongzhi not only covets the Holy Maiden, but is also the murderer who killed your father.

Although I have no choice but to borrow the power of the imperial court, I absolutely do not want the Holy Maiden to fall into her hands.

It's just that Liu Rongzhi made a high-level move at the beginning, which made my plan fail, and this time I came here to make up for my mistake. "

"Oh? It seems that you have some good plans?"

Huo Wutong brought Yanzhi and Huzi back to the room. Yanzhi was not very excited today because she had met her sister before, while Huzi was more confused and unfamiliar than excited.

Huo Wutong looked at his younger brother who had grown up a lot, but was still tiger-headed, and smiled gently: "What's the matter, Huozi, don't you know my sister?"

Huzi nodded first, then shook his head, and said in a crisp voice, "I remember Eldest Sister, just, just... I don't really remember her appearance."

In Huo Wutong's impression, this younger brother is more timid and cowardly than his younger sister. If it were in the past, he would have probably hidden behind Yan Zhi by now.

But today, although he showed hesitation and uncertainty, he didn't seek help from Rouge, he behaved gracefully and dressed like some young master.

"You were young when my sister left, so it's normal if you don't remember. You have grown up a lot compared to then, and my sister almost couldn't recognize her."

Yanzhi pulled her younger brother to her sister's side, and said happily, "Huzi has grown a lot taller, and he also practiced martial arts like his older sister, so he will definitely be very good in the future."

When Hu Zi heard what the second sister said, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said excitedly: "Has the eldest sister also learned martial arts? Isn't she very good? Several masters said that I am still young and can only learn bit by bit.

Otherwise, the gain outweighs the loss, so I have only learned a few moves and breathing, and I can't even beat the masters with one hand. "

"Who is your master?"

"My master is shopkeeper Shen's guards, they are amazing! Of course, shopkeeper Shen is even more powerful. But she said that I am not talented enough to learn her martial arts."

Huo Wutong has achieved some success in learning martial arts so far, because of his outstanding talent and being a leader among the young disciples who are upright, he unconsciously developed some complacency.

However, when she confronted Shen Cuo that day, she knew what it means to be unfathomable.

Although her master is also strong in martial arts and has deep inner strength, she always feels that she will catch up one day after ten or seven or eight years.

Shen Cuo gave her a completely different feeling. Although she was so young, her control over her inner strength had already reached a pinnacle and unattainable level.

The gap is probably not only caused by skills, talent, and years of martial arts practice, but Huo Wutong has no clue at all.

"Rouge, I heard you and Huzi are both called Shen... Shopkeeper Shen, Master of Fufeng County, what's going on?"

"Ah, this thing is..."

It has to be said that at the beginning, Yan Zhi enthusiastically explained the ins and outs for her sister, and Hu Zi also said a few words from time to time, the strange atmosphere between the three siblings gradually dissipated.

"It seems that the princess is really good to you."

Even if the two of them don't talk about it and just look at their state, expression and appearance, Huo Wutong can be sure that the younger siblings are not wronged when they live by Shen Cuo's side.

It's just that after listening to the words of the two, she further understands that their life is not just good.

After all, no family would teach their servants martial arts.Shen Cuo is not so much buying Yanzhi and Huzi as slaves, but rather repaying Yanzhi's kindness for saving her.

That being the case, why do they refuse to reunite their sisters now?Obviously, Shen Cuo also sent someone to look for her.

"Yeah, shopkeeper Shen is very kind to us."

Hu Zi nodded again and again, although he was not as close as his sister and Shen Cuo, but his respect and gratitude to Shen Cuo was no less than that of Yan Zhi.

Huo Wutong obviously noticed this, his heart sank slightly, but there was still a gentle smile on his face: "Then sister will definitely thank the Princess for taking care of you in the past two years.

Now that our three brothers and sisters can finally be reunited, my sister will definitely take good care of you and will not let you be wronged again. "

Hu Zi was taken aback for a moment, then opened his eyes wide and looked at Yan Zhi.Rouge pursed her lips, and said with a distressed expression: "Sister, I have something to tell you about this..."

Huo Wutong gradually restrained his smile, looked at Yanzhi and said: "Erya, if you are afraid that the princess will not agree, then don't worry. My master is the leader of the martial arts alliance, and he can face the saint directly. It is impossible to cover the sky with one hand and break up the three of us, siblings, unreasonably."

Yanzhi shook her head anxiously and said: "That's not the case, sister, Shopkeeper Shen... Shopkeeper Shen really doesn't want me to leave.

But, but it's not unreasonable as you said, shopkeeper Shen is a very emotional person, she just doesn't want us.Moreover, I also promised her..."

Huo Wutong's expression gradually became solemn and serious: "Do you know what you are talking about? At the beginning we didn't have the right to choose, but now it's different.

You are forced by life to sell yourself to Shen Cuo, no matter how well she treats you, in the end your status is inferior to others.

My sister may not be able to give you a good life like now, but at least we are free.You are not yet 12 years old, my sister does not want you to regret it in the future. "

The more Huo Wutong said, the lower Yanzhi's head dropped.Huo Wutong gradually lost sight of Rouge's expression, but she could still hear her voice.

"Sister, the three of us were separated once, and now we are reunited only because of favors from others.

Although you are free, you still have to repay your master for saving your life.Even if you ask your master to let us reunite now, it is just one more kindness that needs to be repaid.

I have thought about it carefully, and I want to stay with Shopkeeper Shen.But that doesn't mean we sisters can't see each other again.

Besides, Huzi is not from a lowly background, shopkeeper Shen promised to let him choose whether to go with you or stay. "

Upon hearing this, Huzi quickly said, "I, I want to be with Second Sister..."

He has been closer to Yanzhi since he was a child, and now he has lived with Shen Cuo and others for two years, so he naturally wants to follow Yanzhi even more.

Huo Wutong's complexion was already very pale at this time, after learning of her father's death and the disappearance of her siblings, she only wanted to find them.

But she didn't expect that the three of them would have a chance to see each other again, but the younger brother and younger sister didn't want to live with her anymore.

The goal she had been striving for all this time suddenly ended in this most unacceptable way for her.
