The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort - 114. The innocent Xiao Shao

Back to Ruan Ju, Jiang Ruan asked all the maids to retreat. Forsythia and Dewdrop didn’t know what had happened. The only one who knew what happened was Tianzhu who was a boring gourd. Although he was puzzled, the maids retired obediently. After going out, only Jiang Ruan was left in the room for a while.

Jiang Ruan sat at the desk without thinking about anything, and in a blink of an eye the sky turned dark. She only felt a little bored in her heart, so she got up and walked out of the house. Ruan Ju’s courtyard was said to be too big, so she walked along the small courtyard to the courtyard wall and sat down by the courtyard wall.

The moon in the summer night is big and round, like a huge pearl, which clearly illuminates the courtyard. Jiang Ruan sighed softly, and Xia Yan’s words suddenly appeared in his mind.

It was Jiang Dan. It was Jiang Dan who poisoned Zhao Mei’s daily tonic.

She remembered that when the third aunt died, she entrusted Jiang Dan to Zhao Mei. In fact, Zhao Mei, as the mistress of the Jiang family, felt distressed that Jiang Dan lost her mother at a young age, and indeed regarded Jiang Dan as her biological daughter. Beloved. Although Jiang Quan left Zhao Mei in the cold for a long time, Xia Yancai was more like a mistress than Zhao Mei, but Zhao Mei’s mother and son had a good time.

For Jiang Dan, when Jiang Ruan was a child, he only felt that the fourth sister was too courageous. Occasionally, Zhao Mei is too clingy, even if she looks at it, she will be slightly jealous. But when I think about it, I’m relieved, just because the little girl without a mother is dependent on her aunt.

Now I think about it, but I feel a little bit cold all over. Those poisons that Zhao Mei had used in the first place turned out to have been poisoned by Jiang Dan, and not only that, Jiang Dan also poisoned her. Jiang Ruan only understood at this time why his body was always upset because he had eaten poisonous things unknowingly in his early years. I just wanted to come to Jiang Dan when she was timid, and there were not many opportunities to find poison in her refreshments.

Jiang Dan, Jiang Ruan sneered in their hearts, knowing that there is still a deeply hidden thing in this mansion, but they didn’t know that she was such a wolf-hearted thing. Thinking of his mother’s life as a joke, Jiang Ruan didn’t know whether it was anger or sadness in his heart.

I don’t know how long she sat under the courtyard wall, until she felt a little sour all over her body, and Jiang Ruan stood up and wanted to go back to the house. As soon as he turned his head, he was stunned. Not far away, the black-clothed youth stood quietly under the tree and looked at her in silence. It was obvious that a long time had passed.

“You… are back.” Jiang Ruan said. Xiao Shao disappeared for a few days, and suddenly appeared from nowhere. Jiang Ruan had something in his heart at the moment, but he didn’t care to reprimand him for rushing to the mansion at night.

Xiao Shao raised her eyebrows, walked towards her, and said, “What’s the matter with you?”

As soon as Fang came back, he heard Tian Zhu talk about what happened in the past few days. Jiang Ruan, who saw him under the courtyard wall, looked sad, and did not know what he thought of, and felt very lonely. That kind of depressed back makes people feel dazzling when they see it.

Jiang Ruan watched Xiao Shao walking towards him and reached out to her as if he was about to touch her face, but stopped when he was about to touch her, and only asked, “Why is it still not good?”

Several days have passed, the palm prints on his face are still clearly visible, and the redness and swelling are very obvious on the white face. Jiang Ruan was taken aback, don’t go too far: “Tomorrow I will go to the palace.”

Xiao Shao had a pause, understood, and after thinking about it, he took out a porcelain bottle from her arms and handed it to her: “Use it after entering the palace.”

Jiang Ruan took it and whispered: “Thank you.”

Today, her mood is really low, which can be seen by ordinary people. Not to mention a sensitive person like Xiao Shao. He glanced at Jiang Ruan, suddenly stretched out his hand to grab her arm, and mentioned her. Before Jiang Ruan could react, he found that he had reached the big pear tree in the courtyard.

“What are you doing?” Sitting on the pear tree trembling, she had to stretch out her hand to grab Xiao Shao’s hand, still feeling uneasy, and her heart was overwhelmed, and she simply wrapped her two hands around Xiao Shao’s waist.

Xiao Shao originally just wanted to bring Jiang Ruan to the tree. When Jin Yiwei Li Jin Yi Jin Er was not in a high mood, he would often climb to the tree to drink. There was no wine at the moment, Xiao Shao thought that maybe it would be better to look at the moon and Jiang Ruan. Unexpectedly, Jiang Ruan stretched out his hand and hugged his waist, Xiao Shao stiffened, and a strange emotion appeared in his heart very quickly. The girl’s peculiar fragrance penetrated into the tip of her nose, and his black hands were as white as jade under the moonlight, and Xiao Shao had an inexplicable urge to cover the gentleman.

Jiang Ruanfang reacted by turning around Xiao Shao’s waist, a little annoyed by his impulse, and quickly let go. Subconsciously raised his head to see Xiao Shao’s reaction, but saw Xiao Shao sitting in a tree blankly, with a beautiful side face. The elegant and deserted people in ordinary days are silly, and they are a bit stubborn and cute.

“Hey.” She tried to calm her voice: “Take me down.”

Xiao Shao recovered, pursed her lips, and asked, “Is this better?”

“Not good,” Jiang Ruan said anxiously: “Not good at all.”

Xiao Shao gave her a surprised look. Jiang Ruan was usually calm, but when he was so anxious, he found it funny. He simply straightened his legs, resting his head with his hands and resting against the branches.

Jinyi and Tianzhu in the distance widened their eyes at the same time. When did these two men who calmly calmed down the insidious and cunning people become so naive? It’s not an exaggeration to say that it is a few years old.

Jiang Ruan stared at the instigator who was lying leisurely, and only hated that he hadn’t learned martial arts before and couldn’t kick this person off the tree. Being in a tree, the cool breeze blowing in the summer night refreshed her bored mood.

It’s hard to have a moment of calm down in the place where Jiang’s mansion is full of calculations and conspiracies. That’s why it is a luxury to not think about anything at this time. She turned her head, Xiao Shao’s head was facing her. This young man was born beautiful. It is rumored in the capital that the Jiang family’s daughter gave birth well, but Jiang Ruan felt that it was because Xiao Shao gave birth to a boy. For example, when she looked over, Xiao Shao’s thin lips were tightly pressed, her long eyebrows flew into the temple, and her straight nose. He was beautiful but heroic, his most moving pair of dark eyes, now closed tightly, with long eyelashes hanging down, Jiang Ruan looked over, contemptuous in his heart, a man, what did he have such long eyelashes for? But my hands are itchy, and I unconsciously stretched out my hand to feel it…

Jinyi touched Tianzhu nervously: “What does she want to do? Indecent assault on our master?”

“How do I know?” Tian Zhu said angrily: “Look at the master’s appearance, doesn’t that mean that indecent assault is welcome?”

Jiang Ruan’s hand was about to touch Xiao Shao’s eyelashes, Xiao Shao opened his eyes unexpectedly, Jiang Ruan was taken aback, facing a pair of dark and deep eyes. Xiao Shao had the best eyes. On weekdays, his expression was cold and his emotions were written in his eyes. At this moment, he looked as bright as a splattered diamond, with three points of intoxication. Rao is a person with a rock-like heart, and can’t help but be moved when he sees it.

Jiang Ruan issued a certificate, but Xiao Shao was also slightly stunned. Jiang Ruan stared at him unblinkingly. The scornful gaze that was always slightly ridiculed at the moment was completely confused. His eyes were clear, and she unconsciously showed a young girl. Unique charm.

Xiao Shao only felt itchy in his heart like an ant crawling over, but Jiang Ruan was dumbfounded, his eyes fell on the roots of Xiao Shao’s red ears.

This person is so innocent?

She let out a “pouch” laugh. This laughter made Xiao Shao a little annoyed, she wanted to turn over and sit up, but forgot that they were still in the tree. Inadvertently, the branches shook with a crisp sound, and the two fell together.

Jiang Ruan screamed, Xiao Shao hurriedly stretched out her hand to wrap her waist, and when the two recovered, they went up and down, Xiao Shao rode on Jiang Ruan, one hand subconsciously placed on the back of Jiang Ruan’s head. , The fallen leaves from the trees fell on the two of them.

Luzhu and Bai Zhi ran out when they heard the sound, and saw this scene as soon as they arrived. Jin Yi covered his eyes, Tian Zhu changed his usual dull appearance and swallowed excitedly: “Master… Master is so passionate.”

Forsythia was afraid of disturbing others, hated and angry in his heart, pushed Xiao Shao away and pulled Jiang Ruan up, guarding Jiang Ruan, watching Xiao Shao vigilantly and said: “Prince Xiao rushed to the mansion at night in the middle of the night, just to occupy My girl’s cheap?”

Forsythia wanted to be pungent and spoke straightforwardly, but he didn’t even realize what was wrong. Xiao Shaoji frowned invisibly.

Dewdrop was very happy. She was born in the market, and she was not as important as Baizhi and Forsythia for the rules, and she could see that Xiao Shao was not in the pool at a glance. These cold people are the only difference between Jiang Ruan and others. If there is this aunt, wouldn’t it be great. Dew Zhu thought in her own mind that it seemed good to be the hostess of Jinying Palace, at least these people didn’t dare to trouble Jiang Ruan easily for these things.

Jiang Ruan had a headache. Dewdrop and Forsythia had misunderstood. Thinking that Xiao Shao had broken into Jiang’s mansion at night, Xiao Shao couldn’t help but glared at Xiao Shao again. But she didn’t want her to be gentle, but actually alienated. Only those close to her would show little true temperament. This action fell in the eyes of Forsythia and Dew, and he couldn’t help but feel shocked. It also confirmed what the girl and the young King Jinying had guessed.

When Xiao Shao saw this, a smile flashed in her eyes. But he didn’t continue to trouble Jiang Ruan, only said: “If something happens, come to Dongfeng Tower to find me. Tonight is too late, you rest early.” After saying that, he turned and jumped onto the wall and disappeared into the night.

The master of the three hundred thousand Jinyiwei of the Dajin Dynasty had to learn how to pick flowers and thieves over the wall. Xiao Shao walked extremely elegantly, but she didn’t know how imaginative what she said when she left, and immediately what a big wave was set off in the hearts of Jiang Ruan’s two close-knit maids.

Because Xiao Shao was so messy and messed up, Jiang Ruan didn’t have the mind to think about what Xia Yan said in the day. He even left the matter of Jiang Dan behind, and his mind was better than before. I didn’t think too much when I went back to the house, and I went to rest after blowing the light early.

On the second day before Jiang Ruan entered the palace, he saw Dewdrop rushing in and said in amazement: “Girl, there is a lot of noise outside, saying that the wife is outside and the person has a head and tail, and she doesn’t want to have a miscarriage. I still want to blame the girl. The people say it is terrible, saying that the master… is not divorced with a green hat, it is really a big belly.”

Dewdrop’s words have brought a third of leeway, and those people’s words should be even more harsh. Jiang Ruan thought slightly, how could anyone outside know if she had not had time to release the news? Naturally, the Xia family and the Jiang family wouldn’t talk about it, and Xuanli wouldn’t ask for trouble. She asked: “Who heard this?”

“It’s the middle-aged doctor,” Luzhu smiled, covering his mouth. “The man ate in the tavern, and when he was drunk, he said this as a joke. It is estimated that the whole capital is talking about it now.”

Jiang Ruan raised his eyebrows, and it was easy. How could the man tell him after receiving the benefits, he must be instigated by others. A person appeared in his mind, would Xiao Shao have too much trouble? But letting him do it saves himself a lot of trouble.

“Is the carriage ready?” Jiang Ruan asked, not delaying entering the palace.

“Ready, just waiting at the door.” Bai Zhi said.

Fang was about to walk to the gate and happened to meet Jiang Quan. Jiang Quan’s face was surprisingly gloomy, and the news came out early this morning, which only made him faceless. After going down, hurried back to the house, it seemed that everyone on the road was watching his jokes. If something like this happened, he would be jabbed in the backbone for the rest of his life. At this moment, Jiang Quan could only wish to choke Xia Yan, the instigator, and his heart was blocked. But when he saw that Jiang Ruan was about to leave the house, he asked, “Where are you going?”

Jiang Ruan looked back at him and smiled: “The empress dowager invited me into the palace for a while, what can I do with my father?”

Jiang Quan was at a loss for a while. Since Jiang Ruan was named the princess, his relationship with the Queen Mother of Yi De has entered into a lot. His father is not as good as Jiang Ruan who has a face in front of the Dowager, and he is full of anger when he thinks of it. His eyes fell on Jiang Ruan’s face, and he was taken aback: “What is this?”

Five clear finger prints hung on the face, as if accusing the person of how violent it was. Several days have passed. Not only has the trace not disappeared, it is still the same as the one newly added yesterday. The redness and swelling has not disappeared, and it is very abrupt on the white face.

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: “What is this? Father doesn’t know?”

Jiang Quan became angry from embarrassment: “How do you enter the palace like this? This is disrespect to the empress dowager, so quickly go back and cover it for me.”

“The princess,” Tian Zhu said at the right time: “It’s time to get on the carriage. If the hour is missed, the empress dowager will blame it and it will be broken.”

Jiang Ruan smiled and said, “Exactly.” She looked at Jiang Quan: “Father, I’m leaving first.”

Seeing that Jiang Ruansi didn’t put his words in ears. Jiang Quan almost burst his lungs with anger, he furiously said: “Jiang Ruan!”

“Father, the empress dowager treats me as flesh and blood, and won’t care about this little rule,” Jiang Ruan said with irony. She smiled: “If my father insists on doing this, I will ask my father again when I return home.” After that, he instructed Tianzhu to open the door. As soon as the gate of Jiang’s house opened, many people watching the excitement surrounded him. Jiang Quan could not stay any longer. Even though his heart was already exploded, he had to gritted his teeth and said fiercely. One sentence: “Niezi!” He walked away.

Tian Zhu glanced at Jiang Quan contemptuously, and carefully helped Jiang Ruan into the carriage. The people outside are naturally sharp-eyed. Seeing the slap print on Jiang Ruan’s face, he thinks of the rumor that Jiang Quan slapped Jiang Ruan when he heard that Xia Yan had a miscarriage. They all talked: “Princess Hong’an is such a charming person, that Jiang Shangshu really can be done, seeing the red seal on his face really makes people feel distressed.”

Another sideline said: “What do you know? Jiang Shangshu has always been indifferent to the children of that talented girl. When Mrs. Jiang passed away, he sent Hong’an Princess to Zhuangzi. Which biological father can do this?”

There was the woman who sipped: “Bah, what kind of talented woman is she talking about, she is clearly an adulterous slut. Who knows whether Miss Jiang Er and Master Jiang Er are Jiang Shangshu’s, maybe they are the adulterer’s. .”

It suddenly dawned on everyone, and they began to talk enthusiastically. This time, the identities of Jiang Susu and Jiang Chao were suspected.

Dewdrops lifted a corner of the carriage curtain, and some external discussions would also be heard in their ears. Dewdrop said: “These people can really guess that if they are heard by the second young lady and the second young master, they must not go out if they are angry.”

Jiang Ruan smiled faintly. In this world, only the people’s mouth can’t be blocked. With a little guidance, the rumors are raging, enough to kill a person’s life. For example, in her last life, wasn’t it just about being forced to the end by these rumors step by step? After the first life, it is time for the self-made fairy Jiang Susu and the proud Jiang Chao to taste this. As for Jiang Quan, how much he loved Xia Yan back then, how much he hates now.

When I entered the palace, I saw the Queen Mother Yi De. Sure enough, the Queen Mother Yi De frowned as soon as she saw Jiang Ruan’s face and said, “How did it happen?”

Aunt Yang on one side also looked at Jiang Ruan’s face and remembered the rumors outside. The Queen Mother Yide was deep in the palace, and didn’t pay much attention to the outside affairs, so she didn’t know about Xia Yan.

Jiang Ruan smiled and said, “It’s nothing.”

The Queen Mother Yide glanced at her, then said to Tianzhu: “You said.”

People who are used to giving orders all the year round have a feeling of oppression. Tian Zhu knelt down and said: “If you go back to the empress dowager, the girl was injured by the master. Because the lady’s childbirth slandered the girl, the master beat him in anger. Girl, the Eighth Highness was also present at the time.”

Jiang Ruan laughed inwardly, and Tian Zhu pulled Xuan Li into the water.

The Queen Mother Yide knew what was going on as soon as she heard it, and said angrily: “If you turn it around, you can’t do it? How dare you do something to the people of Ai’s family! Hong’an, what is Lao Ba doing at your house?”

Jiang Ruan thought for a while, shook his head and said, “Nang Niang also doesn’t know, Xu is going to talk to the master about political affairs with Master Xiahou.”

The Queen Mother Yide is not the one that only harem women are jealous. When she was young, she played power tricks and supported the new emperor ascended the throne. Naturally, she also heard what was wrong in this statement. Thinking of the eighth prince’s ambition now becoming more and more apparent, the Queen Mother Yide frowned slightly. Looking at the palm print on Jiang Ruan’s face, he was naturally furious, and immediately said: “What is Jiang Mansion? You have lived here in Ai’s house these few days. Ai’s family doesn’t believe that your father dare to be so bold!” After a pause, she said again: “How is that Xia Yan now?”

Aunt Yang laughed: “The empress dowager calms down. The slave and maid also know about this. Let the princess sit down and have some tea, and the slave will tell you well.”
