Chapter 101: Waiting for the price to sell
Sima Run would never have imagined how happy Wei Jian would be in his heart to see him fall!
She has known him for half her life, and he is delicate or not, can she not know? said that he was not successful enough, but because he insisted that he had "important matters" to discuss with her, but after entering Wang Xuan's room, he sat opposite them with his eyes straight away, and he didn't let out a single fart, if he didn't fall, Wei Jia really needed great endurance to resist the urge to beat him down with his own hands.
When there were only two people left in the room, Wei Ji let out a sullen breath, sat down in Sima Run's position just now, separated from Wang Xuan, and said: "It's finally clean, you can just say anything you want!"
Wang Xuan's left elbow was propped up on the case and held her cheeks, sitting lazily against the case, holding the glow-in-the-dark cup that had just been filled with her right hand, and a pair of eyes locked on her were dazzling by the candlelight.
He said softly: "The child you picked up...... The lips that were like peach petals at first saw were as pale as ice sculptures and snow sculptures during the day, and as bright as grease at night.
Hearing Wang Xuan mention Yun'er, Wei Jian couldn't help but sit upright: "What?"
"Using him as bait is a shortcut to the current situation. Wang Xuanyun said lightly.
In her previous life, hearing this kind of words, Wei Jian would definitely not care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and categorically rejected him, but now she has learned to think twice when encountering things, and listen to him carefully, and it is not too late to make a decision, first divert her attention, pour a glass of sake to suppress her shock, and pick up the luminous cup, she stared for a long time, and said: "This is my cup, do you want to return it to me?"
He asked, "Are you saying this in preparation for abandoning me?"
In this regard, without waiting for her to reason with him, he began to talk nonsense to her, and talked about it many times, it was always her who suffered, and seeing that he was out of tune, she simply changed the conversation: "Let's get down to business, what does Yun'er have to do with this matter?"
"Yuna?"
"I gave the boy a name. Remembering the lie she had told Sima Run before, she took a sip of sake, lowered her head and said vaguely: "By the way, I told King Langya before that you gave this name, if he asked...... Although they are already very familiar, if you want her to beg him, she still feels that she can't open her mouth."
Wang Xuan also took a sip of wine: "Ge, I'm very happy." ”
This clueless sentence made Wei Jian very inexplicable: "Huh?"
Wang Xuan put down the wine glass and changed his legs to sit on his knees, put his arms on the table, leaned forward slightly, and narrowed the distance between him and the guard: "You can do whatever you want, I will listen to you." ”
These words made Wei Yan's heart flutter, but the throbbing was fleeting, and she took another sip of sake before she said slowly: "What if I say I want you to kill Sima Run?"
Wang Xuan's face did not change: "What can't be." He leaned forward a little more: "What should I do, die suddenly or be cured for a long time?"
The corners of Wei Yan's mouth twitched: "Isn't he your eight-worship friend?"
Wang Xuan was like a child, fanning his thick eyelashes, and said sincerely: "I don't know him well." He also said: "You let me see the light of day again, so I only recognize you." ”
Wei Ji stared into his eyes, secretly thinking: Seeing the light of day again means that this pair of tricks can be used again - yes, I saw it before, and I didn't seem to see him cover his eyes with brocade recently, but what does this have to do with her?
But listening to the meaning of his words, even if she wants to go to the adulterous department, he will collude with her without saying a word, so he will definitely help her with this little thing of lying, since this is the case, then there is nothing to worry about: "Killing people or something, I am laughing at it, but Yun'er's matter, please help me more." ”
After hearing her say this, Wang Xuan, who was full of interest, suddenly became listless and sat back with a pout: "Okay." ”
What's the matter, could it be that he really plans to kill Sima Run? This is their so-called friendship in a pair of pants, which shows how unbelievable the legend is, Wei Jian twitched the corner of his mouth again, it was getting late, Yun'er was still waiting for her, he didn't have time to joke with him here, and moistened his lips with sake: "Yun'er is just a poor concubine, how can it affect the situation?"
Wang Xuan straightened his expression: "Who said he was a poor concubine?"
Wei Jian was stunned for a moment, she heard Yun'er's biological mother mention that "the main mother doesn't like it", so she took it for granted that the "main mother" was her husband's main room, since Yun'er's biological father has a main room, he is naturally a concubine, isn't that the case?
Seeing Wei Ji's confused face, Wang Xuan smiled slightly: "Thinking that the Jiang family was worried that you would abandon her son, she deliberately said something specious, in order to confuse your public and earn a way for her son to live, the 'main mother' in her mouth is actually her own grandmother, Mrs. Jiang." ”
Wei Jian couldn't digest it for a while: "Jiang Clan, no matter what, Mrs. Jiang is also a generation of heroines, how could she chase and kill a pair of orphans and widows all the way from thousands of miles, and they are still related by blood." ”
Wang Xuan's index finger fell on the map: "This is the former residence of the Jiang family, which is only twenty or thirty miles away from our current location." ”
Wei Jian had dealt with Mrs. Jiang in her previous life, and she heard that the Jiang family moved south under the auspices of Mrs. Jiang, but the specific time and location of the relocation were not very clear.
So Wang Xuan told the story of the past:
Nine years ago, the area was hit by a devastating flood, which caused countless casualties and lost thousands of acres of fertile land.
In the winter of that year, the victims who were instigated ~ broke open the gate of the Jiang family, killed the husband and two sons of Mrs. Jiang, and robbed the granary and treasury of the Jiang family.
Jiang Gong was honest and honest, and he really did not accumulate much wealth during his lifetime, and all his property was looted a few days ago, and he couldn't take it out.
But the people above didn't listen to this, saying that there was starvation all over the place outside the door, but their Jiang family closed the door to the wine pond and meat forest, and they had no mercy, and they even dared to disobey the emperor's order, and they planned to save money to make ~ Rebellion?
The boss gave them a three-day period, and if they didn't hand over the money and food after three days, they would ask him about the Jiang family's male ding, Mrs. Jiang knew that this kind of threat was not just as simple as scaring them, after all, the boss did not allocate disaster relief funds, but let them pay for these big families, and no one was willing, so at this time, it must be a few thorns as a typical example, so as to kill a hundred people.
There is a so-called blessing that is not serious, and disaster will come again, depending on the strong attitude of the other party, if you don't do it, this unfortunate thing will fall on their Jiang family.
Mrs. Jiang took off her filial piety clothes and began to walk around in many ways, but other people's families were not rich in that stall.
On the night of the third day, Mrs. Jiang looked at the three carts of grain borrowed by Dong Nuoxi, which was too far from the requirements above, although her husband and son were gone, but there were still a few outstanding grandsons, Mrs. Jiang made a decision, took her grandson and granddaughter, and even did not want the remains of her husband and son, and rushed out of the encirclement at night and fled to Xiqiang.
They left in a hurry, bringing only the remaining soft and a little grain, and when they arrived in Xiqiang, they were all in rags, not much better than the victims who fell outside their Jiang family.
Fortunately, he was rescued by Yao Kehui's younger brother Yao Keyu, who was stationed at the border at the time, and in order to save her grandchildren, Mrs. Jiang married her second son's youngest daughter Jiang Xixu to Yao Keyu.
After Jiang Xi is famous, he is well-read and very beautiful, Yao Keyu fell in love with her at first sight, and after reporting to his brother, in order to show respect, he held a wedding in accordance with Han etiquette, married her as a wife, and she was the only lady, and she never took a concubine and spoiled him.
But in fact, as early as a few years ago, when Jiang Xi went to the temple with his mother to make incense, he met Wu Shu, a child of the declining scholar clan, and then had several contacts.
But Wu Shu never expected that the Jiang family did not set the marriage for Jiang Xi early in the morning, completely because Mrs. Jiang was ready to sell at a price, and she was thinking about using this most outstanding granddaughter to climb the roots and branches, so when she saw the vulgar matchmaker invited by Wu Shu, she didn't even need to investigate, and immediately rejected Wu Shu's proposal on the grounds that his family background was too poor.
So even though Jiang Xi had to commit herself to Yao Keyu for the sake of her family, she still pretended to be Wu Shu in her heart, Zhen Ri frowned and didn't say anything, and secretly used the secret recipe at home to prevent pregnancy.
After two years like this, by chance, Mrs. Jiang learned that the person who instigated the victims to break into their Jiang family behind her back was Wu Shu.
It turned out that Wu Shu, who was rejected from marriage, fought for the upper reaches, and it took less than two years to be promoted to the eight-rank deputy governor Sima Changshi, but this was still too far from Mrs. Jiang's requirements, Jiang Xi was already sixteen in the year of the flood, so Wu Shu, who was in a hurry, took a risky move, and he saw that there were hungry and red-eyed victims everywhere, so he secretly sent people to encourage them to rob Jiang's house.
In Wu Shu's thoughts, as long as Jiang Gong and Jiang Gong's eldest son die, and the Jiang family is looted again, their Jiang family will definitely not be able to slow down in the past two years, then his chance will come.
It's just that he didn't expect that Jiang Xi's father was also in the house at that time, and he was killed by the victims in order to protect the family property, and then he issued an order to call the big family to raise money for disaster relief......
Jiang Xi was disheartened when he heard that it was Wu Shu who had ruined their family, and he was going to apologize with death, but Yao Keyu, who noticed her abnormality, stared at her inch by inch, and Mrs. Jiang also said that if she died so irresponsibly, it would be a crime on top of a crime.
Jiang Xi thought of those brothers and sisters who had left their homeland because of Wu Shu's sins, and if they died, in case Yao Keyu expelled them in anger, she was afraid that she would let them live that terrible life of displacement, so she gritted her teeth and survived, and the following year, she was pregnant with Yao Keyu's child.
