Fight the Giants

  Chapter 560 There is an effect and a cause

  As soon as Zhang Fu came back, he heard that Nanny Sun had been rescued.

  The master and servant looked at each other.

"My lord, I have checked with the servants. I heard that it was the mother-in-law and maidservants in the Madam's courtyard who went to see Nanny Sun with a tray, and then they were knocked out in the firewood room. Even the guarding mother-in-law was knocked out. No. Grandma Sun was also rescued."

  Zhang Fu frowned. Everyone in the mansion knew that Nanny Sun was imprisoned by him. Even Mrs. Tai wanted to intercede, but she couldn't let him release Nanny Sun.

   Except Mrs. Tai, no one in the mansion dared to violate his orders. Who would touch Grandma Sun?

  Zhang Jin took a step closer, "Master, I heard that there is a jug of wine poured on the floor of the woodshed."

   Zhang Fu pursed his lips, raised his hand, and stopped Zhang Jin.

  In the morning, he broke up with his mother, and his mother must have sent someone to attack her because she was afraid that he would use Nanny Sun as a witness. Mother wants to repeat the old plan again, using poisoned wine on the nanny?

   Thinking of Rou'er, Zhang Fu felt a pain in his heart.

   "Master, there are not many people who know the inside story. The people in the house don't know how to do it. Could it be that... the eldest lady rescued him?"

  Zhang Fu was taken aback, "You mean, sister Ning rescued someone?"

  Zhang Jin nodded.

  Nurse Sun is one of the very few people who know the truth and can testify. Since Mrs. Tai wants to do something to Sun Nanny, the eldest lady may rescue her and want to keep her.

   Zhang Fu pressed his forehead with a headache.

  My mother didn't make any sense, and my daughter didn't trust him either.

   "My lord, it's only a coincidence that the young lady did this. Nanny Sun, a servant, dared to lay hands on the mistress, and the young lady sent someone to arrest her because she wanted to avenge the madam."

  Zhang Jin felt sorry for the eldest lady and the young master, and was afraid that the master would have a suspicion against them, so he often helped to make up for it.

  Zhang Fu shook his head, "I know. I'm not angry either."

   He also smiled, "If she really did it, I would be happy if she did it. It's just that this child doesn't seem to trust me."

  Zhang Fu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's been so many years, the eldest young lady hasn't lived with the master, so it's a little strange. But, should the master send someone to investigate? It's not necessarily that the young lady did it."

  Guogong Mansion is heavily guarded, and this mansion is no longer the home where the eldest lady lived in the past. It is the mansion bestowed by the emperor as the Marquis, the eldest lady is not familiar with it, and she doesn't know where he is locked up.

  Huo Xi took Tayue with him, stepped on the gangplank, boarded the boat, crossed the deck, and entered the cabin.

   "Nurse Sun."

  Nurse Sun is even more sluggish than before in Zhang's firewood room. Probably also knew that she would not get it, her face was ashen. Hearing the sound, he looked up.

   "Who are you? Why did you catch me?"

  Huo Xi knelt down in front of her and looked at her: "My name is Huo Xi."

   "Huo Xi?" Nanny Sun raised her spirits and looked at her.

  Huo Xi let her look at her, and opened his mouth lightly: "I still have a name, Zhang Yuning."

   Nanny Sun's eyes widened, "You, are you the eldest lady?"

  Huo Xi nodded.

   Nanny Sun's whole body softened: "Are you still alive? You are really alive! Are you here to avenge your mother?"

  Huo Xi didn't answer, just looked at her quietly.

Grandma Sun shed tears: "I have often dreamed of your mother these years. Your mother is a good mistress who treats servants generously and never beats or scolds them. But I am only a servant after all. Madam Tai Take me to Zhuangzi and send poisoned wine to your mother, can I not go? Can I hide? I don’t want to..."

   Nanny Sun lay prone on the deck, weeping bitterly.

   Kowtowed several times to Huo Xi, "Miss, I don't want to either. If I had a choice, even if I pretended to be sick or dead, I wouldn't go..."

   "You are innocent, and my mother is even more innocent. She died because of you."

   Nanny Sun cried louder and louder.

  “People are always responsible for what they have done. The Buddha said that if there is an effect, there must be a cause.”

  Nurse Sun sobbed, and couldn't say anything to make Huo Xi spare her life.

   "It is better for you to die in my hands than in the hands of Mrs. Tai. At least I will restrain you and reward you with a thin coffin."

   Nanny Sun couldn't stop crying, she hasn't lived enough yet.

   "Now Mrs. Tai wants you to die, and your family may not be able to escape."

Grandma Sun's eyes widened, "No, no, they don't know anything! I haven't told them! I've kept this secret to death, and I've never told anyone! Miss, please spare them! ..."

   Bang bang kowtow.

   "It wasn't me you asked for. If I hadn't brought you out, your family would have been dismissed by Mrs. Tai at this moment. But they are still alive in my hands."

   Nanny Sun raised her head suddenly: "What does Missy want me to do?"

   "You write down what you did to my mother, and what you know, for me to use. My mother can't die in vain."

   Mrs. Sun hesitated.

"Life for life, I won't implicate your family. Your man Miao Renqi should be in charge of the outer courtyard. I heard that the Duke of the State asked him to deliver letters and things to my grandfather. He has been obedient and obedient over the years, and he has never been there. Shangyong sent it. Tell me, what will be waiting for him?"

   Nanny Sun narrowed her eyes.

"But I don't plan to do anything to him. Although your son Miao Sijiu is good at gambling and has no skills, I heard that your two grandsons are smart. The older one is still working as a book boy with the young master in the house. Very talented…”

  Huo Xi stared at the change of expression on her face.

   "You write down everything you know, including about the Wu family. I promise you, I will let your family get rid of their citizenship and keep them away from the capital. If they are capable, they will earn a future."

   Nanny Sun shed tears and nodded: "I will write."

  Huo Xi asked people to prepare pen and ink. Grandma Sun didn't know many words, so she dictated, stepped on the moon to write for her, and finally asked her to sign and press her fingerprints.

  Nurse Sun looked at her bright red handprint on the white paper, "Miss, are you really going to release them from slavery?"

   "I assure you on behalf of my late mother."

   Nanny Sun felt relieved.

   Smoothed the messy hair with both hands along the cheeks, and smiled at Huo Xi: "You have to go clean."

  Huo Xi glanced at her, and ordered to Tayue, "Someone bring some food, fetch a basin of water, and bring a set of clean clothes."

"yes."

   "Thank you, miss!" Nanny Sun knelt down on the ground again and kowtowed to her.

  Huo Xi didn't speak, just glanced at her, turned and went out.

  The water of the Qinhuai River is gently rippling, supporting the boat to swing gently back and forth. Huo Xi supported the side of the boat, staring at the surging river in a daze.

   After a long time, Tayue came over, "Girl, I'm already gone."

  Huo Xi raised her head and sighed, closed her eyes, "Give her a coffin, and let her family restrain her. Arrange them to leave Beijing."

"yes."

  At the gate of the palace, Mu Yan left the errand, and walked out of the palace with Ye Chen.

   "I finally got an appointment with Minzhi, and we agreed to go drink together today, so you can't make excuses."

   "Am I that kind of person?"

"Aren't you? Since Minzhi got married, he can't wait to stay at home and hug his sweet wife every day. And you are just a bachelor, and I ask you out nine times out of ten. If you are not enlightened, I would suspect that you are a golden house. .”

  Mu Yan raised her eyebrows, "I don't understand?"
