famous concubine

Chapter 489 Undressing (3)
"I still can't figure it out, why is this?"

Dongfangyu didn't look at Xia Xue, but raised his head slightly, his eyes fell on the distant sky, his red lips were slightly parted, and after a long while, he said coolly: "Xia Xue, have you forgotten? Our young mistress was pregnant with the eldest son of Dongfang. It is a joy for the grandson to worship in the ancestral hall, but it is a pity that the joy has not lasted for a few days before it turned into pain."

Xia Xue lowered her eyes again, pondered for a while, and then said in surprise again: "You mean, she was using Ji Sulian to plot against Dongfang Ni because of that accident? But today's matter is just to let Dongfang Ni It’s just making a fool of yourself in front of everyone.”

Compared with the pain of losing a child, isn't this too light?

Although the "lost son" does not actually exist, the problem is that that person has been kept in the dark, thinking that he is really pregnant with the eldest son and grandson of Dongfang Mansion!

"Well, but this matter may also be Ji Sulian's self-directed and self-acted planting scheme. After all, besides that person, it is also possible that she sprinkled these beads herself."

Hearing Dongfangyu say this, Xia Xue was a little confused at the moment. Is this Geng Yannuan framing Ji Sulian in order to avenge Dongfangni?Or was it Ji Sulian's deliberate trick to embarrass Dongfang Ni in public?
"Just wait, the good show is yet to come!"

Dongfang Yu glanced at Xia Xue lazily, without further explanation, but turned around and walked out of the hall, to a place with a wide view outside, looking at the rolling hills shrouded in the twilight.

"Xia Xue, do you see it? From here, there seems to be a temple on the top of the mountain."

Xia Xue followed her fingers and looked towards the mountains diagonally opposite. Seeing that under the twilight, the cornices and yellow tiles of the palace could be vaguely seen hidden in the mountains. Yes, there is indeed a temple there, I hadn't inquired about it before."

"Let's go, let's go have dinner now; by the way, check out the words of the teachers, hoping to find something valuable." The girl's eyes flickered, and there was a slight joy in her expression.

After the dinner was finished, I found out the news. It turned out that the temple Dongfang Yu saw on the opposite side was called Puji Temple, which was far away from the Guanyin Temple here. It is also a very famous temple, but most people don’t know it. The well-known Puji Temple is so close to the Guanyin Temple; if you take a shortcut from the mountains, it will not take half a day.

"Puji Temple, well, let's go visit this famous temple tomorrow." The girl stared at the flickering candlelight, muttered to herself and climbed onto the bed.

"Miss, what were you talking about just now? What temple?"

Yan Zhi was staying in the room at the moment, and was going to sleep on the couch next to her. Hearing this, she yawned and frowned at the girl.

"It's nothing, go to sleep." Dongfang Yu smiled and then closed his eyes, dreaming her sweet dream.

Night, quietly, cold as water.

Almost everyone is sleeping peacefully and soundly in sweet dreams at this moment.

Of course, everyone here does not include some people with evil intentions.

Ji Sulian was in a drowsy sleep, but suddenly smelled a stinky smell in the air; she couldn't help frowning, turned over, and continued to sleep, however, after the stinky smell, the doors and windows everywhere There seemed to be some kind of creepy sound faintly.

Hearing that sound, it was like the "hissing" sound made by some kind of animal crawling, or the sound made by some kind of animal when it was entrenched in a high place, raising its head and sticking out its tongue.

This kind of terrifying sound that can make people feel scared from the bottom of their hearts immediately woke up Ji Sulian, who was not sleeping soundly.

She sat up from the bed suddenly, and reached out to touch her forehead, only to find that her palms were wet and sticky with sweat.

"Yuelan, get up and turn on the lights." Ji Sulian frowned, feeling her way out of bed to put on her shoes.

Yue Lan, the maid who was sleeping on the couch, heard a loud shout in the dimness, and immediately rolled down from the couch.

She rubbed her eyes in panic, and saw that in the darkness, Ji Sulian was about to get out of bed with a dark face.Immediately, she fumbled for the torch next to her, and was about to light the torch and go over to light the oil lamp.

Unexpectedly, at this time, she suddenly stepped on something slippery under her feet, and after she stepped on it, it would swing quickly and make a "hiss" sound on the ground, as if it had bitten her shoe. Then there was another "chi" sound, and the room seemed to be calm again.

However, Yuelan was frightened out of her wits by the sudden sound, and suddenly sat softly on the ground, holding her head and screaming in horror: "Ah! There is a snake!"

"Snake? How could there be a snake here?" Ji Sulian heard Yuelan's scream, and her first reaction was to scold in a cold voice. However, after she reacted, she also screamed loudly in horror: " Ah, there are snakes, there are snakes... help!"

Ji Sulian's absolutely high-decibel screams woke up everyone in the yard from their sleep.

Madam frowned, with a calm face, accompanied by Mother Rong, she walked quickly outside Ji Sulian's room, and asked, "Sulian, what happened?"

"Ma'am... madam... there are snakes, there are snakes!"

The terrified voice was trembling uncontrollably, but when Madam heard it, it was not Ji Sulian's voice; it came from the maid named Yue Lan.

"Light on the lights, open the door, and let us in." After hearing this, the madam yelled coldly again, and then asked, "Where is Su Lian? How is she? Did she get bitten by a snake?"

Yuelan shook her head in fear, and it took her a while to get up from the ground, and touched the fire folder that she was holding in her hand, she didn't know where it fell when she panicked just now.

In desperation, she had no choice but to stumble and crawl to the door in the dark, and opened the door after trembling for a long time.

The door opened, but she didn't dare to look directly at the madam's cold and treacherous eyes, she just lowered her head tremblingly, and said in a low voice: "Young lady, I don't know what's going on with the young mistress, she... she... I can't find you Huo Zhezi."

"Useless stuff!" Madam gave Yuelan a cold look, and then motioned for Mama Rong to bring the lantern.

Rong's mother held up the lantern to take a look into the room, and found that Ji Sulian was sitting on the bed stupidly, her face turned pale with fright, and she couldn't move anymore.

Immediately, the madam had no choice but to order Yuelan to go over and pinch Ji Sulian, and after pinching for a while, Ji Sulian slowly came back to her senses.

However, when Madam Rong and Madam Rong walked in to check carefully, they didn't see any trace of snakes at all.

"Yuelan, let me ask you, where is the snake?"

"Slave... Slave, just now I accidentally stepped on a slippery thing in the dark, thought it was a snake, and screamed when I was scared; unexpectedly, I frightened the young lady."
