On the way back, Jiang Shuixian supported the old lady's arm and deliberated, "Mother, do you think the face of this Shuiyao girl has been disfigured, so she dare not let others see her."

Tan nodded, and said sympathetically, "Maybe, you remember to take care of her, after all, it's because of Ziqi's injury."

"My daughter-in-law knows, but the servants in the mansion talk a lot. This Shuiyao girl just entered the mansion, and some people made rumors that she was a concubine brought back by the general, and she was gossiping in the backyard."

Tan was furious, picked up his crutches and threw it out, "Narcissus, you can handle this matter as you see, whoever dares to talk too much, get caught and fight twenty, and then throw it out of the house."

The goal was achieved, and Jiang Shuixian laughed. She thought that with Tan's support, even if the princess was there, she would give her a little bit of face.

Mrs. Tan touched her hand which was a little cold, covered it in the palm of her hand and said lovingly: "I heard that the princess has troubled you in the morning. This woman is very difficult to deal with, and she is deeply favored by the emperor. At present, I have no way to drive her away. , but it won't be long before she will leave of her own accord."

Jiang Shuixian looked up in surprise, "Mother, what do you mean by that?"

Tan smiled slightly, "You can't tell, you'll know when the time comes. People always have something to be afraid of, and Zhou Lingyue won't be jumping around for a few days."

Jiang Shuixian kept these words in her heart, and planned to go back and ask Chuntao to inquire about what Zhou Lingyue was afraid of in this mansion, and why Tan Shi would say such a thing.

At night, when everyone else is in bed, it's time for Jiang Shuiyao's activities.While the night was dark and the wind was high, and no one disturbed her, her plan was also being carried out in secret.

She asked the maid for a set of maid clothes, and went back to her room to change quietly.The courtyard where Mrs. Zhao stayed was guarded during the day, and the gate was closed at night. She saw that the courtyard wall was not high, so she thought she could climb the wall to get in.

Before Fan Ziqi left, she left a guard to protect her. When she saw that Jiang Shuiyao wanted to climb the wall and headed for Zhao's courtyard, she didn't stop her, but watched silently from the sidelines.

Jiang Shuiyao didn't notice that the ladder was wet, and her feet were slippery when stepping on it, and she was about to fall off before she climbed up.

The guard had quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed her by the arm, and led her to stand firmly on the top of the wall.

"Thank you, hero."

The figure trembled, lowered its head and said: "Girl, you don't have to do this. These are the general's orders. I don't care what you do. If you are in danger, just yell, and I will come to rescue you."

Jiang Shuiyao watched the figure disappear, and said to himself, good man!

The ladder was too heavy, she didn't have the strength to pull it up now, just in time she saw a big tree in the yard, she slipped over quietly, grabbed the branches of the tree, climbed to the fork, and finally slid slowly along the trunk down.

When she was a child, her family was poor, her father left early, her stepmother tortured her in different ways every day, raised her as a boy, asked her to stop all the work, and rubbed her shoulders when she was free.

When she got to the window, she saw that the light was still on inside, she stretched out her fingers and drilled a small hole through the window, through the hole, she saw Mrs. Zhao lying comfortably on her side on the soft couch, and the little girl next to her was cracking sunflower seeds for her. , there is a heater at the feet, with fine silver charcoal burning inside, and steam is rising from the basin.

Because this Mrs. Zhao is pretending to be crazy, she usually doesn't let other maidservants get close to her in the courtyard, but at night, it's her world.

Jiang Shuiyao tried to push the window, but found that it was not locked. She hooked the corner of her lips and pushed open the door forcefully. The people in the room were startled when they heard the sound.

"Shuiyi, go and see how the window is open."

"Maybe it's because the wind is too strong, and it was blown away." Jiang Shuiyi stood up, put on his clothes reluctantly, and went to the window.

The winter wind was bitingly cold. Before she came over, she sneezed and tightened the cotton coat behind her.

Jiang Shuiyao looked under the window for the right moment, and suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Shuiyi.

Seeing her face covered with blood and scars, as well as her wide-open eyes and drooping mouth, Jiang Shuiyi was frightened half to death, and quickly blocked the window.

"Mom...no...it's not good..."

Seeing her pale face, Mrs. Zhao shouted from the room: "What's wrong, you're so scared, did you see a ghost?"

Jiang Shuiyi clutched her chest: "Elder Sister! Mother, I saw the ghost of Eldest Sister. There were scars and blood all over her face. Didn't you say she was dead!"

Mrs. Zhao hurriedly put on her shoes and went to the bed, rushed to the window and opened the window to look outside. She didn't find anything, and patted her daughter's back hard, "Damn girl, who are you scaring? See if I don't smoke. you."

Jiang Shuiyi yelled while hiding: "Mother, I didn't lie to you, I really saw my eldest sister."

Seeing that her daughter didn't seem to be lying, Mrs. Zhao took her daughter's hand and held the candlestick in one hand.

I have been pretending to be crazy in the mansion for so long because I want to stay here and not leave. The old general and the old man are kind enough to send a lot of supplements. , urged his second daughter, Jiang Shuixian, to help his younger daughter find a husband's house, so that even if he couldn't stay in the general's mansion, he would have a foothold in the future.The prerequisite for stability is that her eldest daughter will not come back to make trouble.

If the youngest daughter is not mistaken, the mansion is indeed not clean.

Jiang Shuiyao heard the voice outside, and quickly went up to the tree in the yard, hung the blood-stained wedding dress she had prepared on the branch, and hung a rope on it, and when Mrs. Zhao came out, she appeared in front of her .
