Mrs. An Guogong was so angry that she couldn't break free for a while. She simply grabbed the girl next to her before the thing locked her: "Young child who has not yet lost his teeth, dare to use such an insidious method to plot against me, why not tie me up?"

I will immediately take her to be buried with her."

Just as she was about to extend her arm, something unexpectedly stabbed her in front of her. The blade of the sword was green and glistening. It was the emerald sword that had caused her great harm earlier.

Teng Yuyi was able to move when Mrs. An Guo was distracted. The reason for attacking the monster was not to worry about the girl's safety, but to want the monster to die immediately.

She was the most vindictive in her life. She had longed to crush this thing into ashes. She realized that this thing was trying to play tricks again, so how could she let it go as she wished?

However, before she could stab the monster's left claw, the rope tightened suddenly. Mrs. Anguo's eyes bulged and she was suddenly pulled off the ground.

The barrier was broken, the noble ladies turned pale with fear, and the yard was in chaos. The rope went around in a circle, and the end jumped back into the young man's hands. He tied up the monster with a smile, and threw something to Teng Yuyi: "Take this

Give the medicine to the injured."

Teng Yu accidentally received the medicine bottle and looked at the man carefully. He was wearing a white jade crown with a long beam on his head, a gold sword hanging from his waist, a purple robe, and green stockings (Note 1). According to the regulations of this dynasty, this is the attire of a prince.

Looking at his appearance, he is seventeen to eight years old, tall and handsome, and if it weren't for the wicked smile on his face, he would be a rare and beautiful man.

Teng Yuyi had long recognized who this person was. He was the nephew of the current emperor, the eldest son of Prince Cheng and his wife, a well-known son of the clan who was favored by thousands of people: Lin Chengyou.

Teng Yuyi glanced at him, turned around and dragged her aunt, who was still a little dazed, into the house: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The only time she interacted with Lin Chengyou in her previous life was at the flower viewing banquet at Jade True Girl Temple.

At that time, the Teng family had already divorced, and her father was still supervising the army in Huainan Road. In order to take care of her sick aunt, Teng Yuyi voluntarily stayed at her ancestral home in Yanshoufang, Chang'an. As the day when her father resigned became closer, the house often closed

When she saw the letter her father sent from Huainan Road, she didn't understand it and secretly guessed that it had something to do with her father's transfer back to Beijing.

At that time, the cause of her cousin's death was still unknown. She served her aunt's bedside every day. Due to her depression, she had not traveled for a long time. That day, the steward brought the notice and she did not want to go. She heard that the person hosting the banquet was the queen, so she

Make mental preparations.

As Teng Yuyi expected, the flower viewing party was unprecedentedly lively. The ladies dressed up and gathered in groups. It is said that not only the queen, but also Princess Cheng, who has been traveling abroad all year round, also came.

Teng Yuyi followed the ladies to visit the Queen and Princess Cheng, when she suddenly heard someone whisper: "Look, that's the Crown Prince Cheng."

Teng Yuyi looked along and saw a handsome young man walking through the garden.

This man was wearing a light robe with arrow sleeves and a golden bow on his arm. He didn't look like he was here for a banquet, but rather as if he was leaving here at any time to go hunting.

"Yeah, he doesn't look like he's here to see my wife. He seems like he's here to play."

"I heard that he was originally going to fight a horse, but was temporarily escorted by Princess Cheng."

The banquet officially began. Teng Yuyi followed the other girls to play the piano, drink tea, and admire flowers. Because she vaguely guessed the deep meaning behind the queen's poetry meeting, she behaved perfectly. During the chat, she was full of pearls, and she composed poems with unique wit.

, even when dealing with servants in a secluded corner, he is more tolerant and patient than usual.

After the poetry meeting, the Queen and Princess Cheng specially invited Teng Yuyi to come forward. She answered many questions quietly and politely. When she came out, she heard the palace people talking: "I guess she is the young lady of General Teng's family. This woman's appearance is too attractive."

You see, don't look at the arrogance of the prince, after all, he has reached the age of understanding, if he saw the Teng family's young lady with his own eyes, he would probably be tempted."

"Yes, judging from the appearance of the princess, she seems to be very satisfied with the Teng family. The young prince is not afraid of anyone but his parents. With the princess present, the prince does not dare to do anything random. If the prince dares to run away this time, he will inevitably be killed.

The princess will give her a good beating."

Teng Yuyi felt it was very strange. She had grown up, and this was the first time she heard about a princess who would beat her son personally. She wanted to take a closer look at Princess Cheng who was sitting at the top, but the queen ordered them to be taken to the garden to enjoy the autumn.

chrysanthemum.

When passing by the Diecui Pavilion, Teng Yuyi caught a glimpse of many young gentlemen sitting in the pavilion. The breeze blew the bamboo curtains, and dozens of looks were cast on the table.

Teng Yuyi walked without squinting. It was late autumn, and a slight drizzle fell silently. There was a furry coolness on her face. When she returned to Teng Mansion that night, she recalled when the Queen of the Day and Princess Cheng asked her to question her.

The situation is already well understood.

She had no admiration for Prince Cheng, but the ladies were teasing him implicitly in private. The one they talked about the most was Prince Cheng. She listened carefully while drinking tea. Since they all admired this person, it must have been a bit too much.

People's place.

There were so many members of the clan choosing a concubine this time, and she, Teng Yuyi, could not give in. She had to choose the best one.

She calmly took off the hairpin ring and inquired about the news the next day. The queen and princess took her portrait and asked for advice. Lin Chengyou had only two words without mercy: don't marry.

At that time, Teng Yuyi was rolling up her sleeves and mixing incense with white honey when she accidentally knocked over the incense cup.

Not marrying? She may not be willing to marry yet. The death of her cousin and the illness of her aunt must have disturbed her mood, so she went to participate in the marriage selection of the clan children.

In fact, she had already thought about it in the past two days. She had never met him and had no idea about his temperament. What she heard that day was just how that person looked in the eyes of outsiders and what he was really like on the inside. Only after time did she know, what if he was a different person?

Those who are easy to get along with will last a lifetime.

She lost her mother when she was five years old, and her father was away from home during the war. Over the years, she had long been accustomed to having everything controlled by herself. Marriage was no ordinary matter, and naturally it was no exception. She should be glad that Lin Chengyou did not marry him, so that she would not regret it in the future.

and.

She threw her head back and laughed three times, then forgot about the matter in the blink of an eye. The next day she went to the Du Mansion to serve her aunt as usual, and returned home in the evening to make camel hoof soup.

The fragrant glutinous rice soup is paired with Sanlejiang bought from a Persian wine shop. It is truly a delicious dish that only gods can eat.

After she had had enough wine and food, she went to the bathhouse to take a bath. She was twirling her towel when two words popped up in her mind: "I won't marry."

Ha. She immediately lost her interest and threw the towel back into the water with a sullen face. The force was a bit too strong, and all the water splashed outside the bathtub.

Bai Zhi and Bi Luo sneaked aside and whispered: I don’t know why my wife is angry today, her cheeks have been bulging all day long.

What a joke! She was obviously in a good mood. She put on her clothes and went back to the room without haste, but until she rested on the bed, she still had an extremely uncomfortable itching feeling on her back.

This itch is neither in the bones nor the skin. If you reach behind and scratch, you may not be able to find a place, but if you ignore it, the itch will pop up from time to time. In the final analysis, it boils down to one sentence: If you don't feel happy, your whole body will feel unhappy.

This unpleasant feeling lasted for three days, long enough for her to think about doing something to regain her place. At this time, her aunt's condition suddenly worsened.

She worked around the clock to serve the medicinal stone, hoping that her aunt's health would get better, but unexpectedly, the treatment worsened.

The medical officers were all helpless, and her uncle and cousin were worried. In desperation, she sent a letter to her father, saying that all the medical officers she had invited were useless and begging him to find a solution as soon as possible.

Since her mother's death, she hated her father and never wrote to him. She begged her father several times in succession, all because of her aunt's illness.

She didn't want her aunt to die and her mother-in-law left early. Fortunately, her aunt and cousin took good care of her. If her aunt also left, wouldn't she be alone again?

As expected, my father rushed back to Changye, and that night he invited Yu Fengyu from Shang Yao Bureau to diagnose her pulse. Unfortunately, it was too late. My aunt's illness had damaged her roots. After all these days, the medicine was useless.

The night her aunt passed away, her uncle and her cousin mourned and cried in front of the coffin. She knelt down numbly, knowing that it was useless to cry. She had already experienced this feeling when she was five years old. Even if she cried heartbreakingly, her mother would not.

He just lay silently in the coffin.

I remember the night my mother passed away, she stood in the mourning hall and slapped the cold wooden board with her little hands.

"Aniang, Ayu will never make you angry again."

"Aniang, Aniang, get up and take a look at Ayu."

The house was too chaotic, so she climbed into the coffin while people were not paying attention. Her mother was dressed in a rich dress, with flowers on her temples, and her quiet and gentle face was no different from usual.

She climbed in awkwardly and stretched out her fat arms to her mother: "Auntie, hold Ayu in your arms to sleep."

Her mother ignored her. She sobbed softly, put her head on her mother's chest, clenched her little fists and said, "Mom, don't be angry, Ayu, be good, Ayu will help my mother beat the bad woman."

She imagined that her mother would take care of her when she woke up, so she snuggled into her mother's arms and fell asleep unconsciously.

Perhaps the prayer in her heart had an effect. She fell into a warm chest while half asleep, but when she opened her eyes wide with surprise, what she saw was her father's haggard face full of stubble.

My father looked sad, his eyes were bloodshot, and he seemed to have aged ten years overnight.

She was stunned for a while, then suddenly remembered the woman beside her father, and couldn't help but burst into tears: "I don't want grandpa! Grandpa is a bad person! I don't want grandpa to hug me!"

Her father burst into tears, lowered his knees, held her and knelt in front of the coffin. No matter how she cried, she remained as silent as a mountain.

She sobbed loudly. At that moment, she finally realized that her mother would never come back. The feeling of fear expanded infinitely, like a huge stone pressing on her chest. She kicked and beat her father and screamed: "My father is a bad person! It's you.

It’s the disease that caused my mother-in-law!”

Recalling this point, the sadness and resentment surged up like a tide. She went to grab the collar of her undergarment in a daze, and suddenly someone shouted in her ear: "Ayu, Ayu!"

Teng Yuyi came back to her senses and looked at her aunt's face that was similar to her mother's. Her heart was filled with sadness. She sobbed and threw herself into her aunt's arms: "Aunt."

Mrs. Du was stunned for a moment, then her expression softened. She raised her hand and stroked the back of Teng Yuyi's head as if coaxing a child: "Good boy, what's going on? That monster must have frightened you, right?

My aunt is here, don’t be afraid of anything."

As soon as they entered the house, the medicine bottle given by Lin Chengyou was in their hands. Teng Yuyi looked around, quickly calmed down, opened the bottle cap, and poured out three pills at once: "Aunt, let's take the medicine separately first."

Mrs. Du was so happy that she said "Hey" and went to make arrangements.

Duan Fu was lying under the verandah, and Teng Yuyi took the medicine and went outside to save people. The lady in charge of Dong County magistrate's family ran up to her, and said with a dry smile: "Mrs. Teng, what I said just now was wrong.

The old slave kowtows to the lady to apologize, but my second wife is anxiously waiting for help. Madam Teng, please give the elixir to the old slave."

Teng Yuyi glanced at her. The master and the servant had done many immoral things. In her opinion, they were not innocent at all. But after all, it was a human life. It seemed a bit unreasonable to openly refuse to save it. So she smiled slightly and generously opened the bottle cap. Who

If you only pour out one pill, it will be empty.

There are two other people injured. How can one pill be divided between them? The look on the face of the lady in charge changed a few times. She was just an old servant there, and it would be no big deal if she died. Since there is only one pill, of course it must be left to her second mother, so

He hurried forward to snatch it: "Old slave, I have thanked Er Niang first!"

Unexpectedly, Teng Yuyi turned away, grabbed the medicine and ran towards Duanfu.

The lady in charge was dumbfounded. Seeing Teng Yuyi running away, she stomped her feet angrily and turned back down the steps. She looked at Lin Chengyou with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, my second wife's life is at stake. Madam Teng took your medicine but refused to use it. How could it be so?"

The prince’s righteous act has not been let down in vain.”

Lin Chengyou showed no reaction, and the lady in charge swallowed her saliva. The young lady was anxiously waiting for help. She could not let the young lady of the Teng family make random arrangements. She knew there were monsters over there, but she still had to go through them.
