The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort - 113. Secret

A turmoil fell, and it was the instigator who was unlucky in the end.

Ruan Juli, Forsythia gave a “pooh” and said, “It deserves it, the black-hearted man wants to figure it out on the girl. Now, let’s see what she has to say!”

Bai Zhi was applying medicine to the wound on Jiang Ruan’s face, and the slap print now became more and more red and swollen, looking very dazzling on Bai Shengsheng’s face. Bai Zhi said distressedly: “The master is also embarrassed, and the girl is also a young lady in the mansion, how can she be beaten in front of outsiders, besides, this is still a tense effort.” Bai Zhi and Lian Qiao now understand, Jiang Quan’s heart I was afraid that he had never regarded Jiang Ruan as his own girl, and his natural tone was filled with blame and anger.

Tian Zhu was watching. She was a martial artist. She naturally knew how powerful the slap fell on Jiang Ruan’s face. She couldn’t help thinking about it in her heart. It was the first time that she had truly seen Jiang Quan’s indifference to Jiang Ruan. It’s really rare in this world that a biological father made such a heavy hand.

Jiang Ruan saw Tian Zhu in a trance, and said to Bai Zhi: “Go and give Tian Zhu some medicine.” Tian Zhu received Jiang Quan’s slap on her behalf, and it was not easy to think about it. Tian Zhu said: “No, the subordinate is a maid, even if you see that the subordinate’s face is too fast, you will be suspicious.”

Jiang Ruan thought for a while, then did it, saying: “This slap will not let you suffer in vain.”

Tianzhu said nothing.

The whole night passed. On the second day, Dewdrops brought back news from outside. Jiang Quan sent someone to Baozhitang to confront. As the middle-aged doctor said, Xia Yan once sent his personal maid to Baozhitang to catch it. The medicinal materials are all medicines to restore the body after a small childbirth. Jiang Quan was naturally furious, and sent someone to arrest Lin Lang and Jade and interrogate Xia Yan’s adulterer. Naturally, the two maids could not tell who they were. Jiang Quan was also really angry, so he sent the two maids without a word. The dead were thrown in the mass graves.

Lin Lang and Jade are the big maids in Jiang’s Mansion, but now they end up in a different place. For a while, everyone in Jiang’s Mansion is in danger. Under Jiang Quan’s rage, he arrested all the maids and women in Yanhuayuan. He tortured to confess who the adulterer was. Some people couldn’t bear the severe punishment, so he relaxed and said that he was a passing wandering son, who has now left Beijing.

This is the fact that Xia Yan was stealing people outside. Jiang Quan wanted to divorce his wife in desperation, but Jiang Susu knelt all night outside Jiang Quan’s study. Jiang Chao also knew about it. Xia Yan interceded. Although the Xia family felt dull, after all, Xia Yan was the bond that maintained Jiang Xia’s two in-laws. After discussing it, Jiang Quan put down the divorce, but he did not forgive Xia Yan easily. Only a small Buddhist hall was set up in the mansion, and Xia Yan was thrown in to make her reciting the scriptures daily, and to the outside world, Xia Yan was a Buddha and put her under house arrest.

Since then, Jiang’s mansion has changed drastically. Everyone knows that Xia Yan has completely lost Jiang Quan’s favor and loses power. Everyone in the mansion who had a bit of foresight began to secretly show favor to Wu Yiniang Hongying. There are also those who are optimistic about the second sister-in-law, all day long in front of Jiang Li’s mother and daughter.

Hong Ying is young and beautiful, quite favored by Jiang Quan, but unfortunately he has no children and his status is too low. Fortunately, the second sister-in-law has her family’s help, and she also has a daughter for Jiang Quanyu. The forces in the Fuzhong were confusing for a while.

Dewdrop curled her lips and combed Jiang Ruan’s hair while saying: “Why are there no smart people in this mansion, please do what those people do. If you are a slave and maid, you should be pleased to please the girl. The girl is the decent master of the mansion, and it is Isn’t the princess who is proclaimed by the empress dowager better than the auntie Rauch?”

Jiang Ruan looked at her and said, “That said, you are the smartest?”

Dewdrop sneered and said, “The slaves didn’t mean that, but those people are really stupid. The slaves really couldn’t see it.”

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly, why everyone in this mansion went to please Wu Yiniang and Er Yiniang, and turned a blind eye to her, the eldest daughter, for the simple reason. It’s because Jiang Quan’s dislike for her is clearly in front of his eyes, and even the servants can detect that a daughter who is disgusted by her father, what future will it have in the future?

When Dewdrop combed her hair and plugged in the last hairpin, Jiang Ruan stood up and said, “Let’s go, let’s see mother.”

The news of Xia Yan’s loss in the mansion came to Jiang Ruan, and naturally it also came to Jiang Dan, who was “clear-hearted and low-spirited”.

The maid said: “I didn’t expect Madam to end up like this.”

Jiang Dan supported his chin with one hand, and looked out the window with the other. Compared to her immature appearance three years ago, she showed a bit of a girl’s unique beauty. At a glance, it looks different from Jiang Ruan’s charming and Jiang Susu’s delicate beauty, with a kind of gentle and well-behaved. It’s just that her expression is slightly gloomy at the moment, and she is different from the usual cowardly appearance.

“I want to calculate Jiang Ruan, but my mind is a little stupid.” She sneered.

The maid immediately silenced. In the past three years, her young lady has become more and more moody and unpredictable. It seems to have grown up to ten years old overnight. Sometimes when looking at Jiang Dan’s eyes, the close-fitting maid will have a chill on her back.

“It’s a pity that there was such a big battle, but in the end only Mrs. Jiang was pulled down.” Jiang Dan’s tone was a little cold: “Why didn’t Jiang Ruan be killed together? If she died, how good.”

The maid was shocked when she heard it, and she was busy looking down at her toes, wishing to disappear into the house.

Jiang Dan’s Yu Guang caught a glimpse of her movement, and a sarcasm smile appeared on the corner of his lips, turning his head to look at Basho outside the window.

“Miss, miss it slower.” Dragonfly patted Jiang Susu’s back carefully, Jiang Susu was picking his throat and vomiting.

Since the day Xia Yan’s accident happened, Jiang Susu has been eating and vomiting. If he didn’t know the inside story, the maid would think that Jiang Susu was hurt.

Jiang Susu pushed the dragonfly away, and embarrassedly covered his mouth with a veil: “Get out!”

Dragonfly had to back out with the silver plate. Jiang Susu leaned on the chair, only to feel uncomfortable in his stomach. What Jiang Ruan said to her that day came to his ears again: Because, the Zihe cart was discarded by his mother.

Only when you understand the meaning of Jiang Ruan’s words can you know how terrible this sentence is. Jiang Susu could only wish to escape her stomach, as long as she thought of what she had eaten in her belly…she would vomit into a dark place.

The bitch Butterfly bought back such a Zihe cart. Jiang Susu had already tortured her severely and threw her out of the house. If she did such a thing, she naturally couldn’t keep her. Jiang Susu would have nightmares every night for the past few days. When she screamed from the dream, she was sweaty, and she only felt anxious. She took the bronze mirror on one side, and saw that the original beautiful and refined face had become haggard. , It seems to be greatly reduced.

“Bitch!” She threw the bronze mirror to the ground, anxious between her eyebrows.

The small Buddhist hall newly built in Jiang’s Mansion is nothing but a dark room in disrepair. Located in the most remote corner of Jiang’s Mansion, the yard only had dilapidated excavations and dry wells, and a few dead trees, which looked gloomy, as if there was not a trace of the sun all year round.

Two dark-skinned wives guarded the door, chatting while eating melon seeds. Perhaps they were talking about the people in the small Buddhist hall. They looked back at the Buddhist hall from time to time, and their eyes were full of contempt.

It happened to be this scene when Jiang Ruan brought Tianzhu and Bai Zhi over. When the two wives saw Jiang Ruan, even the melon seeds stood up, nodding and bowing.

A few days ago, the servants in the mansion had long been dressed up and raged. It was originally Xia Yan who seized the opportunity, but was stupefied by this unobtrusive eldest daughter, and fell to the present level. The subordinates are not blind, and the things between the masters can also be seen clearly, and it is clear that this eldest lady is much better than her. Thinking that Jiang Ruan is now the celebrity in front of the dowager again, wouldn’t it be easy to deal with a lady in the mansion? So even though he knew that Jiang Quan did not like this prostitute, no one dared to despise Jiang Ruan, and he was still respectful on weekdays.

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly and waved his hand: “I’ll come in and see my mother.” Bai Zhi stepped forward and stuffed two purses filled with broken silver into the hands of the two women.

The two wives only held their purses quietly, and smiled: “Why are you polite, Missy, if you want to come and just say it. The old slave will open the door to Missy.” The iron key on the neck opened the door of the house.

Only then did a few people see clearly that the door of the house had been hammered again with iron, and the door bolt was still outside. This is to lock Xia Yan upright.

After the two women opened the door, they avoided it. Jiang Ruan led Tianzhu in. Bai Zhi stood outside the door. The woman knew it well. She walked far to the other side and couldn’t hear what the people inside were saying.

The room was dark and there was only one small window opened, but the small window was nailed down with wooden boards. There is nothing in it.

Xia Yan had heard Jiang Ruan’s voice from the window a long time ago, and at the moment he just didn’t know. Tianzhu lit the oil lamp, and it became clear in the room. There was only a wooden bed with a thin blanket on it, which was damp and dirty. A wooden table, a grass futon, an offering table, and a statue of Guanyin made of clay. Xia Yan knelt on the grass futon, closed his eyes, as if praying sincerely.

Jiang Ruan sat down on the only chair in front of the wooden table and looked around. Thinking about coming to Jiang Quan, I was really furious at Xia Yan. The room is almost as good as her “home” on Zhuangzi. Fengshui takes turns, Xia Yan told Zhang Lan’s family to “enter” Jiang Ruan, but he thought that he would fall into the same situation today.

Xia Yan’s legs were already kneeling and numb, and her knees were painful and itchy. The place was humid and not ventilated. When it rained, it was cold and bitter. However, within a few days, she suffered from rheumatism. But Jiang Quan gave another death order, not allowing anyone to visit. Today, it was the person who came to visit, but it was her thorn in the eye, Jiang Ruan.

Xia Yan wanted to ignore Jiang Ruan, but Jiang Ruan was too calm and silent, sitting quietly in the room. But she knelt on her legs really uncomfortable, finally opened her eyes, and said in a flat tone: “What are you doing?”

Jiang Ruan smiled and looked at her: “For three days, don’t be surprised. My mother has only been here to cultivate her body and nurture her character for a few days, but she seems to have been contaminated with the Buddha’s nature. Looking at the clouds, the wind has become much lighter.”

Xia Yan was anxious, and she tried her best to pretend that she was still the same talented woman as she used to be. But looking down, the clothes were stained with oil and dirt, and they looked greasy. Because I was locked in this place, I couldn’t take a bath every day like in the past, and my whole body exuded a stench. The long hair that was originally proud is now in a mess, with a knot in the middle. As for his face… With his eyes closed, Xia Yan could also imagine how ugly he is now.

In front of Jiang Ruan’s smiling eyes, Xia Yan had a feeling of being stripped naked and still going to the market to watch. How did she accept this feeling.

She raised her head to look at Jiang Ruan. Jiang Ruan was dressed in a long dress with golden silk embroidered in juan and begonia-colored gauze, with black hair and snowy skin, red lips and white teeth. Even in the dark black room, her whole body seemed to be coated with a layer of glittering brilliance. This brilliance made her just sitting at the wooden table, but she seemed to be sitting in the most prestigious seat in the world. The smiling gaze looked down and looked like an ant in the dust, full of mockery.

Xia Yan trembled all over, the more glamorous Jiang Ruan, the more embarrassed she was. At this moment, Xia Yan thought of the scene when she first met Zhao Mei many years ago.

Many years ago, she was well-known as a talented woman in Beijing. All female workers are good at piano and chess, that is, all men are enamoured and women are jealous.

But she still couldn’t marry into a good royal family, just because her father was a son of the Fuzhong, and even the status of carrying her was not high. Those princes and generals were able to marry her back as concubines, but they could not be wives.

The most terrible thing in the world is not the beauty of twilight, the red face and the white hair, but the cultivation of peonies in clay pots. Young Xia Yan’s heart is higher than the sky, and he wants to climb a good relationship. At this time, she met Jiang Quan. Jiang Quan is an upstart in the imperial court. He is elegant, handsome, and personable. She is in love with her, but she is not the last person to marry.

Xia Yan once saw Zhao Mei from a distance. At that time, Jiang Quangang told her that she would marry the daughter of the Zhao family. Xia Yan ran outside the general’s mansion and saw the girl with a wanton smile. She was hunting and hunting in red, with pure smiles in her eyes. It was obvious that she grew up in a honey jar, and her father and brother both looked at her lovingly. An extremely complicated mood arose in Xia Yan’s heart.

She thought, why is there someone in this world who can get everything that others desire without any effort, but what I am thinking of is not getting it in my life?

She was jealous, she went crazy with jealousy. She thought, if only this ignorant daughter could also taste the feeling of rolling in the dust like her. To drag her into the quagmire, never see the sun. Let those smiling eyes lose their smiles forever, let her wither slowly, let her see the most miserable and vicious things in the world, let her crawl under her feet and weep.

On that day, Xia Yan changed her mind. She thought that even to be a concubine, she would also enter Jiang’s Mansion, not for anything else, just to make the clean and happy soul become distorted and miserable.

She did it, Zhao Mei entered the mansion, Zhao Mei fell out of favor, Zhao Mei was bullied by his subordinates, and the child born to Zhao Mei would never be loved by Jiang Quan. Until Zhao Mei died, Xia Yan thought that she would trample Zhao Mei under her feet in her life. Unexpectedly, just now, she looked at Jiang Ruan in a red dress sitting in the dark. What she saw in her eyes was not the clean smile of the year, but the ridicule that saw her through, as if laughing at the overweight of a clown. .

Xia Yan screamed and rushed towards Jiang Ruan. She wanted to grab Hua’s face. But Tian Zhu moved faster and kicked her knee off with a kick. Xia Yan fell abruptly and knelt in front of Jiang Ruan.

Jiang Ruan looked at her and said lightly: “Mrs. Jiang, how does it feel to fall into hell?”

Xia Yan was startled, and suddenly laughed madly, she pointed to Jiang Ruan’s nose: “Bitch! Just like your shameless mother!”

With a “pop”, Tian Zhu handed over the veil, Jiang Ruan gently wiped his hands, looked at the dumbfounded Xia Yan, and smiled slightly: “Mother, the misfortune comes from the mouth.”

Xia Yan gritted her teeth fiercely and suddenly laughed. She simply broke the jar and said, “You are angry now? Little prostitute, it seems that you are protecting your short-lived lady. It’s a pity, back then. When she died you didn’t see her crying and begging me to let your brothers and sisters go. Tsk tsk, it’s really ugly.”

Jiang Ruan’s eyes moved slightly, but still did not speak, Xia Yan continued: “Huh, you don’t know how your mother died, do you? She was not in good health at the beginning, I persuaded the master to care about her, and the master ordered the kitchen to give her tonics. The slut saw that it was something the master sent, and drank it happily, but didn’t know that he was drinking poison.” Xia Yan laughed strangely: “But I didn’t leave a handle, because the medicine was not given by me. Guess who made it?”

Jiang Ruan’s heart moved, but his face was still expressionless. Xia Yan laughed first herself, as if she had encountered something particularly funny, and said: “It’s Jiang Dan! Hahaha, I only threatened Jiang Dan with a few words, and she was so scared that she would play in the Zhaomei bowl every day. Poison. Isn’t Zhao Mei very kind in his life, but he didn’t know that he kindly raised a white-eyed wolf by his side! But later, I also discovered a more interesting thing, Jiang Dan actually poisoned you too,” she said. She laughed: “Because I told her that Zhao Mei treated her only superficially. You are Zhao Mei’s biological daughter. Zhao Mei will never be able to treat her like you. If you die, Jiang Xinzhi will only be her. Sister, Zhao Mei will treat her as a daughter. Jiang Dan listened to me and would find opportunities to poison your refreshments on weekdays. Hahaha! Jiang Dan in this mansion is the most cruel, you are so right She, she wants you to die. Are you disappointed and sad now?”

Tianzhu glanced at Jiang Ruan in surprise, but Jiang Ruan did not move, as if he had never heard Xia Yan’s words. She just spoke lightly: “Thank you, Mrs. Jiang, it turns out that there is still such a story.”

Xia Yan laughed a little disappointedly: “Now that I have entered this place, my skills are not as good as others and I have lost to you, so I have no hope of escaping again. But you, Zhao Mei, that bitch has gone to hell. The master hates you again. Sooner or later, you and your short-lived brother will not end well! There are many people who want you to die in this house. Be careful one day I see hell, and I don’t know who the murderer is!”

Jiang Ruan smiled and said, “If I can’t go to hell, what does it have to do with Madam Jiang? But I know if Madam Jiang can go to hell.”

Xia Yan was startled and looked at Jiang Ruan vigilantly.

Jiang Ruan sighed: “Mrs. Jiang thought that she had entered this small Buddhist hall and she was hopeless in this life. I was afraid that she wanted all her hopes to rest on her second sister and second brother, but how could Mrs. Jiang not want to think about it, if her auntie cheated. The matter of the news spread, how will the second brother and the second sister raise their heads in the capital in the future? How can they have a good future?”

Xia Yan’s body trembled. Yes, if the story of her stealing and setting up her daughter-in-law was spread outside, what would Jiang Chao’s colleagues think of him? Is there any good person willing to marry Jiang Susu? Xia Yan knows how important his aunt’s reputation is to her children. She raised her head suddenly: “How can outsiders know that the master won’t spread it out!” she yelled. Jiang Quan loves his sons and daughters so much, he will naturally not expose his family ugliness.

Jiang Ruan smiled more and more gently: “There are so many people, there is no impermeable wall in the world, why is Madam Jiang so sure that it can’t be passed on?”

“It’s you… it’s you…” Xia Yan looked at Jiang Ruan as if looking at a ghost: “You want to kill them…”

“You are the one who hurt them, not me.” Jiang Ruan stared into her eyes, saying every word.

Xia Yan knelt down at Jiang Ruan suddenly, and began to kowtow continuously: “I beg you, don’t hurt them, please, save them, anyhow they are your brothers and sisters, they are all my fault, you complain. I am alone, they are innocent.”

Xia Yan knocked dozens of heads in succession, and Jiang Ruan was unmoved. Finally, she raised her head, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, and sneered: “If you really want to go out and talk, then go out and talk.”

“Ms. Jiang is thinking at this time, as long as she decides on her own?” Jiang Ruan said softly.

Xia Yan looked at her in fear. Yes, she thought so. If Jiang Ruan had to spread the matter out, she would hang herself on a rope and die, and outsiders would no longer be able to talk about Jiang Susu and Jiang Chao. She has been ruined. In this life, I hope Jiang Susu and Jiang Chao can live comfortably, but Jiang Ruan is like the roundworm in her belly, and her thoughts are broken.

Jiang Ruan laughed: “Ms. Jiang loves her children so much. It’s really moving. But I don’t know if the second sister and the second brother will think about his wife the same way?” She leaned down and looked directly at Xia Yan’s gaze: “I think , The second sister and the second brother will also feel ashamed and angry for having such a mother. If Mrs. Jiang can’t decide on her own, they will definitely try to erase Mrs. Jiang, because Mrs. Jiang is like a stain to them. Ah.” She stared at Xia Yan’s horrified eyes and smiled cheerfully: “Ms. Jiang must be very sad when she saw her children come to obliterate her existence. I just don’t know if she will do it first, whether it is the second sister or the second. elder brother?”

She straightened up and glanced at Xia Yan lightly, with a surprisingly cold tone: “Ms. Jiang, don’t worry, I won’t let you die so easily. I won’t kill your life. I will kill you. Do it with your own flesh and blood.” Her tone was enchanting and enchanting, with a strange temptation, as if the charm of the underground palace was beckoning at others. She faintly said: “This good scene of fratricide, this princess has a heart like a snake and scorpion, how can I miss it?”

The red skirt was charming and flicked across the ground, and the door of the small Buddhist hall was closed again with a “pop”, and there seemed to be someone crying in the room.

Jiang Ruan looked up and coldly ordered the two women outside the door: “Watch tight, don’t let her die.”
