Chapter 168: The True Truth
"Brute, this brute!"
Downstairs, Qin Yanxi's eyes breathed fire, looking at the ugly scene on the railing on the second floor, if it weren't for the fact that she was just a spectator and couldn't do anything, she would rush to kill the man.
"Tut-tut, it's really good, no wonder Tanhualang is ruthless but he still has to come in person, come and give you a hundred taels of silver, it's a pity, you can't bear this money, you will give me a good reception in this building in the future, if you dare to run or dare to commit suicide, don't blame me for killing your brother and sister, I know, you also have a brother and sister." ”
The middle-aged man lifted his pants and left, leaving only the woman kneeling on the ground, leaning against the railing, her eyes blank.
After about a quarter of an hour, the woman slowly stood up, and the gauze skirt on her body had been torn off half, but the woman didn't know it, Qin Yanxi's face turned red, and Su Chen also turned her gaze.
The woman picked up the lute on the ground, and the strings on the lute had been torn off one or two just now, and the woman plucked the only remaining string, but unfortunately the sound was not as beautiful as before.
The next scene is that the woman is forced to be sent to this building every day, Qin Yanxi is in tears, and she wants to leave several times.
"If you're sad, close your eyes, but we must read on, because the truth is behind. Su Chen saw Qin Yanxi's state and comforted him on the side.
"I'll watch it, I just sympathize with her, why did I meet a negative man, and I sympathize more with the women of that era. ”
Qin Yanxi shook her head, she knew in books and TV series that the status of women in ancient times was very low, but she didn't expect it to be so low, especially in this place, those men didn't treat women as human beings at all.
"There's no way, it's a feudal society, and the women who appear here are either sold, or they are sentenced to be lowly because of a crime committed in the family, and their status is naturally low. ”
Su Chen explained, and at this moment, half a month has passed since Xu Mingshan's arrival.
Half a month of torture, especially the steward in the building deliberately embarrassed her, the woman finally couldn't bear it, and one night, she washed herself cleanly, and then tied a three-foot white silk.
Qin Yanxi witnessed the whole process of the woman's suicide, she covered her mouth and let the tears flow, she knew that for this woman, maybe ending her life like this was the best choice.
......
The steward of the building found out that the woman had committed suicide the next day, and the steward was so angry that he arrested the woman's younger brother and sister who were not yet ten years old on the spot, and was about to take the two children to vent his anger, but at this time, there was movement outside the building.
A group of officials walked in, and the whole pavilion was instantly quiet, and the steward hurriedly went downstairs, but when the steward saw the one who appeared at the door, his face showed a look of horror.
Xu ...... Lord Xu?"
It was none other than Xu Mingshan, who left half a month ago.
At this moment, Xu Mingshan is not as glamorous as half a month, his clothes are torn and even bloodstained, and his expression is also tired, but there is a certain joy and relief in his eyes that cannot be concealed.
"Where's Manshuang?"
Xu Mingshan stared at the steward, but the steward didn't dare to make eye contact with Xu Mingshan, but he was trembling all over, but in the end, he couldn't bear it, and suddenly sat on the ground.
"Lord Xu, behind this store is Shangshu Mansion, we are a family. ”
The steward didn't dare to answer, but he sat on the ground and hurriedly reported his back mountain, but Xu Mingshan sneered when he heard the steward's words.
"Chen Yan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, secretly hid weapons and recruited private soldiers with the intention of rebellion, and has been arrested and imprisoned by His Majesty's order, waiting for the trial of the three divisions. ”
Hearing Xu Mingshan's words, the steward was dumbfounded, and the backer behind him fell, so wouldn't he be finished.
Xu Mingshan didn't pay attention to the steward anymore, but walked towards the second floor, no one dared to stop him, and they all made way for him, but after half a sound, a loud scream came from the second floor.
"Aoi-chan!"
This voice came from Xu Mingshan's pass.
At this moment, Xu Mingshan was holding the woman's cold corpse, with endless grief and sorrow in his eyes.
"Why, why don't you understand me, I said that because I know that the Chen family is standing behind this Yichun Courtyard, if I don't say it so ruthlessly, the Chen family will not let you go, and they will not trust me and let me join their rebellion plan. ”
"You said that someone would redeem your body and marry you for you, but according to the rules of Yichun Courtyard, the girl's redemption of Yichun Courtyard will be listed for fifteen days, and only if no one gives a higher price in these fifteen days, she will be given a deed of sale. ”
"Fifteen days, I pinched the right time, but why did you leave like this, you wait for me. ”
Xu Mingshan whispered to the woman's body, but at this time, the woman's sister ran back to the house in the backyard where she lived, took out a letter, and ran over to hand it to Xu Mingshan.
"This is what my sister wrote, saying that if I can see you in the future, let me give you this letter. ”
Stunned to take the letter, Xu Mingshan opened the letter, but when he saw the contents of the envelope, the whole person was dumbfounded, and the next moment, he couldn't hold back anymore and cried loudly.
Qin Yanxi and Su Chen also came to the second floor at this moment, when Xu Mingshan was reading the letter, the two of them were also reading, Qin Yanxi's mood was not much better than Xu Mingshan's, but he didn't cry loudly, but sobbed softly.
Su Chen's eyes stared at the envelope, and his expression was also a little complicated.
"Mingshan, when you read this letter, I think I'm already gone, in fact, I know that you will marry the daughter of Shangshufu in order to avenge your family, you said that you are an orphan, and your family died of famine and starvation back then, but you know, once when you had a fever and talked in your sleep, you told all the secrets buried in your heart. ”
"You are the son of a minister, the family was framed and imprisoned by Chen Shangshu, you escaped because you were lucky in your hometown, and you were admitted to Tanhua, there are rumors outside that His Royal Highness Chen Shangshu Jinluan captured Tanhualang as his son-in-law, I knew that this was designed by you. ”
"I also know that the force behind this Yichun Courtyard is the Chen family, and you said that heartless words to me, it was for the Chen family, only in this way can the Chen family really believe in you, believe that you are a villain who is treacherous and only for his own interests. ”
"But I know better, you and I can't hide the affairs of the Chen family, let alone the daughter of the Chen family, the daughter of the Chen family wants to like you very much, but you are not a woman, so you don't understand women, a woman is very selfish to the man she likes, and she will not allow a man to have a relationship with other women, even if it is just a past relationship. ”
"You once told me that your ambition is to gain fame and fame, and then be loyal to the country, and I also said that I will try to help you achieve it, but I know that your real ambition is to avenge your family, and when I say help you, I actually help you take revenge. ”
"The daughter of the Chen family hates me very much, and she will definitely torture me after you leave, but I have to endure her torture, because only then will she feel happy, and the Chen family will be paralyzed, thinking that you really don't care about me. ”
"So from the moment you left, I knew what I was going to face, but I don't regret it, because I promised you. ”
"Mingshan, I originally thought that I could wait until your revenge was completed and I could see the day when your revenge was avenged, but now I find that I am afraid that I will not be able to do it, because I am afraid, I am afraid that one day you will come to me and see me who is so dirty. ”
"Rather than this, let me keep a good image in your heart, don't be sad, you have to be happy, because you have finally taken revenge. ”
"You are Tanhualang, you have a great future, don't give up all this for me, I don't know when you will come, but I know that after I die, they will attack my brother and sister. ”
"Mingshan, I beg you for one thing, if you come to me, then please find my brother and sister, if they are still alive, help me take good care of them and take care of them to grow up, so, you must live, this is my only request to you. ”
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say, I don't know what they're going to do with my body, but it's probably just a random piece of wasteland to throw at me, so if you come to me, don't look for my body, remember that lute, that's the one you gave me, if you really want to get me a well-dressed grave, bury it." ”
"I kept the pipa for a sister in the building, she promised that I would keep it for me for three years, her name is Qingmei, you can just find her when the time comes. ”
......
Xu Mingshan's crying was a quarter of an hour, he thought that he had calculated everything, protected his beloved, and got revenge, and now he could finally be with his beloved, but he didn't expect that what was waiting for him was such a result.
"Xiaokui, why are you so stupid, why are you so stupid, you explain this to me, I will find another way. ”
buried the woman's head deep in his arms, and after a long time, Xu Mingshan stood up, held the woman's body, and walked towards the door.
Outside the door, everyone on the entire floor was controlled by the officers and soldiers on the first floor at this moment, and they stood there with panicked expressions.
Xu Mingshan looked at these frightened faces, with a ruthless sneer on his face, lowered his head and said softly: "Xiaokui, it was these people who forced you to a dead end, and now they are scared, then I will let them bury you." ”
"All the managers of Yichun Courtyard will be executed on the spot!"
With Xu Mingshan's order, those officers and soldiers raised their swords and fell, and one by one's heads rolled down.
"Xiaokui, this is just the beginning, and those who have bullied you, I will also let them pay for your life. ”
In Yichun Courtyard, there is an account book that manages the accounts, which records the information of the guests that every Fengchen woman receives every day, this account book is very secret, outsiders don't know, but Xu Mingshan knows.
And now, he is going to take revenge on those who bullied Xiaokui.
