"What's going on here?"
Mu Canglin's voice coming from the door instantly attracted Shui Rourou's attention.
"Brother Lin!" Shui Rourou's big tears rolled down instantly, accompanied by a gentle sob. Even if he didn't look at her expression, it was just that she had suffered a lot of grievances now.
At this time, she suddenly kicked Hongxiang, stopping her slap.
Hongxiang was kneeling on the porcelain piece, her cheeks red and swollen.
Facing Shui Rourou's cannibalistic eyes, she was too frightened to say a word.
"What's going on? Why is the blood energy so heavy?" Bai Liran said solemnly, "But who is injured?"
As he spoke, he took a step forward and continued to pretend to be blind.
"Brother Lin, wuwuwu..." Shui Rourou didn't say much, but continued to cry aggrievedly.
After all, Hongxiang has served her for so many years, and they already have a tacit understanding.
He immediately sobbed: "Your Majesty! Please make the decision for my young lady!"
"Oh? What happened?" Bai Liran's eyes revealed a playful look, watching the performance of the master and servant with interest.
Naturally, the two of them did not realize the abnormality. One Gu Zi pretended to be aggrieved and wiped away tears, while the other cried: "It's Huaying! Huaying hurt the slave and scratched the lady for some reason!"
This slave has a humble life, and death is not a pity! But Miss, she is the daughter of Concubine Zhuang who has grown up with a lot of love and pampers!
Now that I am injured, if my empress finds out, I don’t know how to feel distressed! "
"This is happening! It's totally unreasonable! Why would Huaying do this!" Bai Liran looked furious, which made Shui Rourou secretly rejoice.
She sobbed softly and said softly: "I don't know, I just heard Hongxiang say. When I was in a coma, it was thanks to Huaying that she brought me in. I was quite grateful to her at first, but who would have thought...who would have thought …”
"Huaying and the young lady have no grievances, how could they harm the slave and the young lady for no reason!" Hongxiang said angrily, "She brought the young lady in in public, she was simply harboring evil intentions!"
"Oh? Then why do you think Huaying hurt you?" Bai Liran asked casually.
Hearing this, Hongxiang glanced at Shui Rourou secretly.
Shui Rourou sobbed softly: "Maybe I accidentally offended her!"
"But Miss, you have always been kind and kind-hearted. Even if you are reluctant to step on an ant to death, how could you offend Hua Ying?"
Hongxiang said quickly, "Besides, it's not like you and Huaying have never met before. Huaying has always been very respectful to you!
However, when she sees you, Miss, recently, she often treats you coldly! It’s really strange! "
The master and the servant sang in harmony, deliberately talking about Hua Ying's attitude change, but did not make it clear.
For a moment, Bai Liran also pretended to be confused.
He was silent for a moment and said seriously: "It's indeed strange!"
Shui Rourou, "..."
Hongxiang, "..."
It was obvious that Mu Canglin had always been extremely smart, but why did he look so stupid today!
Shui Rourou twisted the handkerchief in frustration and annoyance, but she accidentally touched the wound and let out a cry of pain.
"Ah! It hurts so much -" she screamed, and instantly looked at Bai Liran with tears in her eyes.
Bai Liran stood there without any reaction. Hongxiang said quickly: "My lord, please find a doctor for treatment as soon as possible! Otherwise, such a deep wound may leave a scar! Huaying This is really too cruel! Your Majesty! Please punish the murderer severely and seek justice for the young lady!"
"Hongxiang, don't say that! It must be that I didn't do well enough, which made Hua Ying angry and hurt me." The grievance in Shui Rourou's voice could not be concealed.
But Bai Liran still didn't respond, which made Shui Rourou even more anxious.
After thinking for a moment, she suddenly said: "Brother Lin, will you punish Huaying because of me?"
"Do you want me to punish you? Or not?" Bai Liran threw the question back, but Shui Rourou was confused.
She lowered her head, looking resigned.
"I know that Huaying is your bodyguard, Brother Rin. He has been with you through life and death for many years and has made great contributions to you. No matter how big a mistake she makes, you will forgive her, right?" Shui Rourou's voice said, Already choked with sobs.
"Miss!" Hongxiang said quickly, "But you are also a legitimate young lady who grew up doted on by my master and his wife, and you are also the prince's savior!
Huaying hurt you for no reason. Do you have to suffer this grievance? If Concubine Zhuang learns that you have been so wronged, she will definitely blame the prince! "
"Then don't tell your parents and aunt." Shui Rourou sobbed.
"There is no way to hide the injuries on your body and those on this slave! How could the master, his wife, and Concubine Zhuang not know about it?"
Hongxiang sighed, "Huaying, she is now the princess's bodyguard after all. I'm afraid that by then, the empress will also vent her anger on the princess!"
If it was a misfortune before, now it is a clear threat!
This is to move out of Zhuang Fei, trying to suppress him, forcing him to commit the crime!
Bai Liran couldn't help but curl his lips and said in a deep voice: "What you said makes some sense! I am also very curious as to why Huaying would hurt someone! Why don't you invite her to come over and confront you!"
With that, he shouted outside: "Hua Ying! Don't come in yet!"
Mu Canglin, who had been listening to the whole process, walked in with a cold face.
"Tell me, why did you hurt the master and the servant?" Bai Liran said with great interest.
"It's not me." Mu Canglin didn't even bother to pretend. He looked at Shui Rourou with eyes full of disappointment.
"Oh? Isn't it? But they suspect that you were ordered by the princess to do this on purpose!" Bai Liran said, "Is that right? Rourou?"
Shui Rourou, "..."
She has a dirty word and she doesn't know whether to say it or not!
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, but Bai Liran continued, as if he was afraid that it was not embarrassing enough, "You and Rourou have never had any grudges. Just now, you saw Rourou fainting at the door. When others ignored her, she held her head against her. Under the pressure of the eldest princess, she was carried into the palace and settled down. In fact, it was just to deliberately hurt their master and servant! But is this so? "
"I just don't want the prince to have a reputation of being ungrateful and unwilling to save him!" Mu Canlin said solemnly, "Besides, if Concubine Zhuang finds out, she will definitely not spare the prince lightly!"
Although, at the beginning, he was indeed very concerned about Shui Rourou's physical condition.
But it's not that he didn't consider the reputation of the palace, otherwise he wouldn't have brought her in.
"Oh, you are loyal! But Rourou insisted that it was you who hurt people! I can't just cover you up!" Bai Liran sighed seriously,
"It's better than this. Since you hurt them, let them punish you personally!"
With that said, he immediately threw a dagger to Hongxiang.
"According to your own wishes, take revenge!"
This move really made the two of them turn pale. Shui Rourou gritted her teeth secretly and said aggrievedly: "I... How dare I use such a weapon to hurt people? Brother Lin, you'd better not embarrass me!"
"It doesn't matter, isn't there Hongxiang?" Bai Liran said, "I think she is quite courageous!"
"I don't even dare! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"I don't even dare!" Bai Liran sighed, "That would be difficult to handle! Otherwise, Huaying, you can take care of it yourself! Use whatever punishment you think is appropriate! You must satisfy Rourou. That’s it!”
Mu Canglin took the dagger, his eyes filled with coldness.
On the opposite side, Shui Rourou looked at him, her eyes full of pride.
Seeing this, Mu Canglin suddenly gave a sarcastic smile.
"Before Huaying takes action, Rourou, I will ask you one last time. Did Huaying really hurt you?"
