Chapter 7: Forced Questioning

After the funeral ceremony, there was still a two and a half month long mourning period, followed by the enthronement ceremony. Pei Si Yan stayed bored in the Write Autumn Xuan, continuing to listen to Yun Qi talk about the past, as well as reading books and learning etiquette. Li Qing dye every now and then will ask the doctor to come over to give her a pulse diagnosis, the doctor every time after reading straight shook his head, said to go back to study a good.

Pei Si Yan really want to tell him - you are researching to become a god to become immortal, you can not cure "amnesia".

Li Qingzheng always has a very indifferent expression, not slow and orderly management of all these things. Pei Si Yan learnt from Yun Qi that he was only twenty-three years old - she couldn't help but admire him a little, young and promising ah!

Bored Pei Si Yan write autumn Xuan inside and outside of a circle, quite a large courtyard, divided into the front and rear two into the hall bedroom study and so on more than a dozen rooms, there are separate out of the kitchen, there is also a small independent garden, rockery, flowers, plants, pools and pavilions, as well as the pavilion, as if a smaller version of the Jiangnan garden.

Pei Si Yan lying on the grass, thinking about herself and Tantai Yan in the end resembles to what extent, with her since childhood together with the retainers of the family did not suspect in front of them is an impostor.

How the world was more than generally marvellous!

The weather was still hot and dry, the robins were screaming non-stop on the trees, Pei Si Yan was lying under the cool shade of the trees, throwing her books aside and comfortably closing her eyes in preparation for a nap.

At this time, Yun Qi's shout came from outside: "Madam, you are not allowed to come in."

"You wanton girl, how dare you block this madam's path, do you want to be beaten before you know the rules, right? Still don't give me a way out!"

It was Lady Yue Luo's voice, arrogant and domineering.

Pei Si Yan reflexively jumped up from the ground, carrying her skirt and rushed to the side of the hanging flower door to peer outside, only to see Yun Qi and Yun Shan open their arms to block the open courtyard door, as if they were a pair of old hens protecting their chicks. Lady Yueruo stood in front of them with her waist crossed and her eyes wide open, as if she was the mistress of the residence.

Yun Qi defended, "Madam, it's not that Yun Qi doesn't know the rules, it's Miss who ordered that all people are forbidden to set foot in Write Autumn Xuan without permission."

"I am the aunt of the young lady, come to see the young lady who hasn't shown her face in front of people for half a month except for the funeral ceremony can't I?" Lady Yueruo snatched the food box in the hands of the maid beside her and said, "I personally made Miss's favourite pastries."

Pei Si Yan was afraid that Lady Yueruo and the maid beside her would see her, and shrank back towards the back of the door again, holding her breath to listen to them.

"Madam, it's really not allowed." Yun Shan said.

"I'm going to have to see the young lady today!" Lady Yue Luo shouted, making a wink.

A few maids immediately came forward to pull Yun Qi and Yun Shan, Lady Yueruo took advantage of an opening to squeeze through the courtyard gate, Pei Si Yan was shocked in her heart and swept around the garden in a panic, trying to find a place to hide for a while.

She didn't want to talk to Mrs Yue Luo, in case of the east and west to disclose the "memory loss" thing will be bad.

Pei Si Yan took a look, the pond side of the stacked patchwork of rockery is the best place to hide, she to 100 metres sprint / sprint speed rushed over, praying that Mrs. Yue Luo do not first to the garden to see.

Behind the rockery is full of lush weeds, Pei Si Yan can't care if there are any biting insects or snakes or something like that, "bark" a foot to stand over, and found that the weeds are growing on top of a piece of rotten mud, light green embroidered shoes immediately turned dark brown.

The sound outside the garden is getting louder and louder, can vaguely hear Mrs Yue Luo shouting "Miss how not in the study and bedroom, is not in the garden ah", Pei Si Yan repeatedly complained of suffering, closed her eyes, stepped into the mud, she grasped the rockery stone to prevent themselves from sinking, and then through the small holes in the stone to see what is the situation outside.

A graceful and luxurious woman in gorgeous clothes appeared in front of the hanging flower gate and looked into the garden, Yun Qi and Yun Shan hurriedly ran over and blocked in front of Lady Yue Luo.

"Madam, please go back." Yun Qi pleaded.

Lady Yueruo sternly droned, "How come the young lady is not at Write Autumn Xuan? Where did Miss go?"

Yun Qi and Yun Shan coincidentally turned back to look at the empty meadow with surprised expressions on their faces, they looked at each other and fell silent.

Lady Yueruo asked, "Say, where did Miss go?"

The maids' bodies trembled a few times by Lady Yue Luo's fright, their heads bowed deeply.

"Asking you guys, what are you pretending to be mute for!" Lady Yueruo became angry, "Don't you all know where Miss went? Where is Li Qingdan, who was the one who screamed all day long that Miss's safety was of utmost importance? Now that miss has disappeared right under your noses, tell us how you want to explain?"

Yun Shan's body shook as if brushing chaff, Yun Qi pulled her hand and said, "Madam, please forgive the slave girl for not being able to tell you."

Lady Yue Luo let out a cold laugh, "Can't tell me? I think you guys simply don't know where Miss went, right? If you guys refuse to tell the truth again, don't blame this madam for being impolite!"

Upon hearing this, Pei Si Yan was almost about to pop out from behind the wigwam - she wouldn't be trying to chastise Yun Qi and the girls, would she?

I don't know where Li Qingyan ran off to, it would be great if he could show up now, or if Lady Yuexi came, God have mercy, come and relieve her of someone!

Yun Qi clenched her teeth and refused to say a word. Lady Yue Luo was so angry that she raised her eyebrows, and with a wave of her hand, a maid came forward to roughly hold Yun Qi and Yun Shan's arms.

Look at this kind of situation, let Pei Si Yan remember many years ago to watch a certain TV series in the perverted dog blood abuse method, God ah, they will not be in front of her eyes real reproduction of slapping, clip fingers or something, right?

The current situation, beat her to death, Pei Si Yan also can not appear in front of the heart of the mischievous Mrs Yue Luo, this is not a self-inflicted trap, send sheep into the tiger's mouth? But also can't let madam yueluo chastise Yunqi them, right?

Pei Si Yan anxious like ants on the hot pot, left and right difficult to know what to do. Can't wait to hit his head on the rockery and knock himself back to modern times!

Over there, Mrs Yue Luo opened her mouth again, "Since that day, Miss went out of the house for no reason, and has been strange since she came back, not guarding the spiritual hall and not seeing anyone ... Could it be that there is something wrong with Miss?"

Your old man is still really smart and good eyesight, Pei Si Yan rolled her eyes, there is indeed a heavenly problem.

Yun Qi said, "Slave girl doesn't know what madam is talking about, the young lady doesn't have any problems except for the fact that she has been unwell due to her sadness."

"There is nothing wrong with what sister Qi said, miss is really fine." Yun Shan concurred.

"Madam, please go back, if Miss sees you trespassing into the Write Autumn Xuan will be very unhappy, when the time comes ..."

"Pah," Lady Yueruo raised her hand and slapped Yun Qi fiercely, interrupting her words and leaving clear red handprints on her plain face.

"What kind of thing are you, how dare you talk to me like that? Miss has spoilt you all to the point where you are becoming more and more uncaring, do you think that just because you are the First Miss's personal maid that you are more valuable than us commoners? Hmph, you are all the most lowly lackeys no matter where you are, remember that for me!"

A burning anger "Teng" rushed straight to the top of Pei Si Yan's head, she glared at the arrogant Lady Yue Luo, touched her cheek, feeling that slap seemed to have hit her, she really wanted to rush out now to teach her a lesson and then drive her out of Write Autumn Xuan.

But thinking about it, Pei Si Yan didn't dare to really do so.

"The slave girl is just telling the truth, there is no intention of contradicting and offending madam." Yun Qi said in a small voice, and by the sound of her voice, she seemed to be on the verge of crying.

"It seems like you must be given a little colour before you'll tell the truth isn't it?" Lady Yue Luo threatened.

"Madam, the slave girl really can't tell you."

Lady Yueruo's maid slapped Yun Qi and Yun Shan's ears mercilessly, the sound was exceptionally loud and piercing.

"If you guys dare to tell miss about what happened today, see how I ... will do it."

No longer able to tolerate Lady Yueruo's unbearable virtues, and even more so unable to watch Yun Qi and the girls suffer for her, Pei Si Yan's brain was hot, and with a ruthless heart, she jumped out from behind the wigwam, and asked in a cold voice, "How does the lady want to dispose of my maids?"

Lady Yue Luo's expression stiffened when she saw the young woman who stepped out from behind the wigwam, her maid immediately stopped her hands and trembled as she knelt on the ground.

"Miss!" Yun Qi and Yun Shan called out, looking at Pei Si Yan with delight.

Pei Si Yan pulled them behind her and faced Lady Yue Luo again, "Aunt Yue Luo, you haven't answered my question yet!"

Lady Yue Luo quickly regained her composure as she asked, "Miss, where did you fight from?"

Pei Si Yan tried hard to think of that day in the main hall Lady Yue Ruoxi's strong appearance, with her current unlucky status despite being a junior she could still suppress Lady Yue Luo, right?

"May I ask what qualifications you have to ask about my affairs?" Pei Si Yan asked back, puffing out her chest and raising her head high.

Must first overwhelm the other party in terms of aura before she can do so, tell the other party that she is not easy to bully.

"I ..." Mrs Yue Luo was momentarily speechless, but quickly spoke again, "Miss, just now you deliberately avoided me? Otherwise why would you know ... what just happened."

Pei Si Yan felt her heart beating abnormally and barely looked composed, "Aunt Yue Luo, I don't want to repeat what I said a second time."

Aunt Yue Luo coughed twice uncomfortably, "I have no intention of doing anything, I'm just scaring them. I was also worried about Miss's safety, I was in a hurry and did that."

"It's my fault for making auntie worry, but I'm safe and sound now, auntie please return." Pei Si Yan pointed at the hanging flower gate, hoping that she would take her dog slaves and get out quickly.

"But as a member of the Tantai family, I'm really very curious about where miss went just now." Lady Yue Luo looked at Pei Si Yan's pair of shoes that were stained with rotten mud, "I think I still have a little bit of right to ask before Miss has inherited Wu Pan."

Have your grandfather's right, Pei Si Yan couldn't help but want to curse, why is this woman so pestering?

Pei Si Yan's brain was racing, casually making up a set of blind lies, "I'm just casually strolling around the garden, to be honest, I'm not feeling well I really don't want to talk to anyone, so I intentionally avoided you auntie. I also ask auntie to be considerate of me, please go back."

Lady Yue Luo narrowed her eyes and slowly said, "Miss, you seem a bit shall different from before."
