Chapter 1128: Hanging
The day of Yu Cong's marriage was set for December 22, which was the day when he specially went to ask the senior monk to count. A few days ago, Yufu began to prepare, at this time the door hung a red lantern, and a lot of red silk was tied in the house, which was festive inside and out.
Not everyone is happy, though. Aunt An touched her stomach and asked Qiaozhen, who came back from outside, "What did the master say?"
Qiaozhen said: "Auntie, the master said that you can raise the fetus with peace of mind, what you want to eat or what you lack, tell the housekeeper." ”
Aunt An said, "The master is still blaming me!" Since the events of that day, although Yu Cong believed that her words did not anger her, he was cold to her. Even if she was pregnant, Yu Cong ignored her.
Qiaozhen said: "Auntie, you have to relax now and give birth to the child well." As long as you give birth to a son, the lord will forgive you. ”
Aunt An shook her head and said, "In the past, my wife couldn't give birth, so the lord naturally treated the child in my belly as a treasure." But now that he has the Liu family, his child of mine will not be rare. "The Liu family is a flat wife, and if she gives birth to a son, she can be regarded as a son-in-law, and this sister-in-law is naturally more noble than a concubine.
Qiao Zhen couldn't help but scolded: "Looking at Bing Qingyujie, in fact, he is a fox spirit in his bones, and he is the best at seducing men." "I used to be the king of Pingxi, and now I am the master of her family.
Aunt Ann didn't speak, but she couldn't sleep when she lay in bed at night. Finally, she took out the hidden box from under the bed, and looked at the box full of gold, and Aunt An's heart gradually calmed down. This man is really not as reliable as this yellow and white thing.
On the second day, Yu Cong wore a red wedding dress and happily carried a sedan chair to Liu Erye's house to welcome the bride.
At this time, Han Gao entered the study and said to Han Jianming: "Master, the Lin family has already entered the city. ”
Lin has been in Luzhou for so long, and his illness has actually been almost cured. It was only because it was cold that she was afraid of recurrence, so she didn't rush to Jinling.
Han Jianming didn't want Yu Cong to be the groom so happily, so he deliberately pinched the time to reveal the news to the Lin family. As Han Jianming expected, after the Lin family knew that Yu Cong was going to marry a flat wife, they rushed to Jinling without caring about anything.
Lin's arrival today is exactly what Han Jianming wants. The so-called early is better than lucky, and poured a basin of cold water on Yu Cong when he was most happy, which made him unforgettable for life.
Liu Yi is like a puppeteer, and Mrs. Quanfu gives her face and makeup. After tossing for a while, Mrs. Quanfu said, "Girl, it's time to change your wedding dress." "The girl who is married is not rejoicing. But this Liu girl doesn't look like she's going to get married, but like she's going to the execution ground.
Looking at the big red wedding dress embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water on the bed, Liu Yi still didn't have any expression, and was changed by the maid.
Liu Yi is not willing to marry Yu Cong, even if she loses her life to Yu Cong, she is still unwilling to marry. But Mrs. Liu was forced to die, so she could only compromise.
Mrs. Liu took Liu Yi's hand and said with tears in her eyes: "Yu Niang, my mother is sorry for you, don't blame my mother." "For the sake of the Liu family, she has no choice. Moreover, his daughter has lost her body to Yu Cong, and if she doesn't marry him, she will only have the only way to become a monk. This is also the meat that fell from her body, how can she bear to be accompanied by her daughter in the second half of her life.
Mrs. Liu's tears fell on Liu Yi's hands, and she finally had a reaction. Liu Yi said: "Mother, I was the king of Pingxi before, and now I am Yu Cong, and I have also repaid the kindness of the Liu family." In the future, whether I live or die has nothing to do with the Liu family. "Similarly, she won't take care of anything in the Liu family.
Hearing this, Mrs. Liu's heart tightened: "What are you talking about, this kid? My mother knows that you don't want to marry Yu Cong, but my mother can't help it." The Liu family is now in danger, and if there is no one to help, they will be wiped out at any time. After listening to some of what her husband said, Mrs. Liu was frightened. So Master Liu asked her to persuade Liu Yi, and she agreed without hesitation.
Liu Yi said coldly: "If the Liu family has the disaster of extermination, they will sacrifice the women in the family in exchange for peace?" In addition to Liu Yi, the Liu family also sent out two girls.
Mrs. Liu cried and said, "Mother, a woman, I don't understand that, I just ask that your brothers and sisters can be safe." "The other girls of the Liu family were all sent to be concubines. Liu Yi is married to be a wife, and her situation is much better than theirs.
Liu Yi looked at the white hair on Mrs. Liu's head, and her heart softened a lot: "Mother, the Liu family can't be saved, you and your father and second brother should prepare for the worst!"
When Mrs. Liu heard this, her face turned white with fright: "Yu Niang, how do you say this? What does it mean that the Liu family can't be saved?"
Liu Yi said: "Mother, this time I lost my body to Yu Cong is the handiwork of Princess Pingxi." Princess Pingxi will not let me go, and naturally she will not let go of the Liu family. "The current governor of Jiangnan is the brother of Princess Pingxi, and he has not rectified the Liu family now because he has just taken office, so it is not appropriate to make a big move, and when he has a firm foothold, he will definitely not let go of the Liu family.
In fact, Liu Yi is very smart, but all her energy is focused on piano skills, and she doesn't care much about outside things.
Mrs. Liu shook her head and said, "You are married to Yu Cong, Princess Pingxi has no reason to anger the Liu family again." ”
Liu Yi said: "Mother, Princess Pingxi is good at forbearance, and she is known to be virtuous, if she wants to move the Liu family, the evidence must be conclusive, and she will not fall into the hands of others." Mother, you know better than me what the situation of the Liu family is now. As long as you have the heart, you can't find any criminal evidence. ”
Mrs. Liu still didn't want to believe it: "There are some problems with the Liu family, but it is impossible for all of this big family to be good." "Actually, Mrs. Liu knows very well in her heart that the Liu family has long been rotten. Otherwise, they would not send the girls in the family to those reckless husbands as concubines in exchange for peace.
Liu Yi knew Mrs. Liu's temperament, and said, "Mother, you can tell your father and second brother about it." Mother, I did everything I had to do, and I couldn't do anything more. ”
As soon as Mrs. Liu was about to speak, she heard the mother-in-law outside shouting, "The bridegroom has arrived at the door." ”
Xi Niang walked in from outside, touched up Liu Yi's makeup, and then took off the hijab and covered her head.
Not long after, the mother-in-law outside shouted happily: "The bridegroom has come to welcome the bride." ”
When the bridegroom entered the house, it suddenly became lively. Then the bridegroom took the bride away with a smile.
Yu Cong is also a powerful figure in Jinling City, and this time he held a big wedding banquet, so it was easy to find Yu Fu.
Except for a small number of people such as Han Jianming and Fang Xing, most of the people who received the wedding card came. No matter what, Yu Cong is Yunqing's henchman, and everyone doesn't want to offend him.
The coachman said to Lin, "Madam, the road is blocked, and the car can't get in." "The rest of the way, you have to walk in.
Lin lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage and walked a short distance with six guards.
Looking at the two stone lions hanging with red satin, Lin was silent for a long time, and then stepped forward and asked the man who greeted the guest at the door: "Song Mang, this house is full of red silk, who is marrying here?"
Song Mang saw the Lin family as if he had seen a ghost, and when he came back to his senses, the sweat on his forehead came out: "Husband, madam, why are you here?" As Yu Cong's henchman, he is very familiar with Lin's temperament.
Lin pointed to the big red satin hanging on the plaque and asked, "I asked you who you are marrying today?"
Song Mang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Madam, you go into the house first, and I'll tell you slowly." "Coax people in first, and wait for the general to finish worshipping the church.
Lin stood still and said, "When I entered the city, I heard that Yu Cong'er had married a wife today? Is this true?"
Looking at Song Mang, Lin's eyes were cold.
At this time, a little servant ran over panting and said, "Big butler, the sedan chair for welcoming relatives will arrive soon." Seeing that Song Mang didn't move, the little servant said: "Big butler, the sedan chair has arrived, we have to prepare firecrackers, if it is delayed, the general will definitely be angry." ”
Song Mang was so angry that he hadn't coaxed the ancestor next to him, and now he was obviously adding to the chaos.
Seeing that the Lin family insisted on not entering the house, Song Mang had to muttered a few words in the little girl's ear. The little girl's eyes widened, then he glanced at Lin and ran away.
Yu Cong's face changed greatly when he heard that the Lin family was coming, but he couldn't make a fuss in front of the guests, otherwise he would have no face to mess around here.
After noon, Han Gao said to Han Jianming: "Master, Yu Cong got the news, and first rushed back to Yu's mansion to coax the Lin family into the house, and then he and the Liu family smoothly worshiped the church and became relatives, and nothing happened. ”
Han Jianming shook his head and said, "This woman is really useless. "They didn't even make a fuss when they got to the door, and there are more people than this!
Han Gao said: "Master, do we still want to follow up on this matter?"
Han Jianming said: "No need. Such a person is not worth his time and energy.
After Lin was coaxed into the house by Yu Cong, he let people watch her and didn't let her come out. This Yufu is also the courtyard of Sanjin, and the gongs and drums are noisy outside, how can the Lin family not hear it!
When he heard that Yu Cong was going to marry a flat wife, the Lin family didn't want to believe it. But now that the facts are in front of her, she can't help but believe it.
Looking at the four mothers-in-law beside him, Lin said calmly: "You go out, I want to stay alone for a while." Seeing that the four mothers-in-law did not move, Lin laughed at himself: "I'm in the house, I can't run." ”
One of the eldest mothers-in-law said, "Madame, forgive us, the general told us to keep an eye on you, and if we leave you, the general will kill us with a rod when he knows about it." ”
Lin chuckled and said, "If you don't go, then don't go!" After saying that, she climbed into bed and went to sleep.
The four mothers-in-law looked at each other, not knowing which one the Lin family sang about, but the four of them didn't ask again.
In the evening, Yu Cong came over. When he came, Lin was eating. When the four mothers-in-law saw Yu Cong, they bowed and went down.
Yu Cong saw that the Lin family was just burying his head in eating, and said in a low voice: "Ah Xiang, I want a sister-in-law." "A concubine can't be compared with a concubine.
Lin put down the dishes and chopsticks and wiped his mouth, and said coldly: "Yu Cong, when my father did not agree to our marriage, you knelt in front of my father and swore that if you fail in this life, I will die with ten thousand arrows through my heart, and go to eighteen layers of hell after death." Yu Cong, do you remember these vows? ”
Yu Cong said with difficulty: "I remember everything. Ah Xiang, I know it's my fault, but I want a sister-in-law with my blood in my veins, what's wrong with that?"
Lin muttered, "You're right, it's my fault, it's all my fault." "She shouldn't have believed Yu Cong, she shouldn't have listened to her father's words and married the right person. If she listened to her father's words, even if she couldn't give birth, she wouldn't be where she is today.
Yu Cong said: "Ah Xiang, don't worry, even if I marry the Liu family, this family will be big with you." ”
Lin looked up at Yu Cong and said, "It's getting late, it's time for you to accompany your ******." You can't let your ****** stay alone in the empty room, right?"
In the early morning of the second day, Han Gao said to Han Jianming: "Master, the Lin family hanged last night. "Liu Yi hanged her brother before, but Lin really hanged herself.
Han Jianming was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Are you dead?" Whether it was for the sake of Yu Cong or whether he really didn't want to live, only the Lin family himself knew.
Han Gao shook his head and said, "No, she was saved by the mother-in-law who was guarding her." You said that this woman is stupid enough, wouldn't she just make way for the Lin family when she died. "The so-called flat wife is actually a noble concubine, and only an unsophisticated person like Yu Cong will make a flat wife.
Han Jianming didn't comment on the Lin family, but said: "The Lin family has been suffering with him for so many years, and Yu Cong doesn't care about the old feelings at all. ”
Han Gao nodded and said, "Who says it's not, even if the Lin family has a lot of not, they will never leave him when he is in the most difficult time." ”
Han Jianming said with a smile: "Yu Cong probably doesn't know how big he is after doing this. "can force his wife who shares his hardships to hang herself, such an act is chilling to outsiders, let alone those close to her.
Han Gao said: "Master, I think even if we don't do it, this Yu Cong can toss himself to death." ”
Han Jianming said: "It can't be delayed for that long. "It's Layue now, it's not good to make a big move, as far as he estimates, when Yuxi is out of the first month, he should order to deal with the Liu family. I have to say that the brother and sister still have a tacit understanding.
Han Gao really couldn't figure it out, and asked, "Master, do you think this Yu Cong has a brain? No matter what, this Liu family is also the prince's woman, isn't he afraid of annoying the prince if he marries the Lin family as his wife like this?"
Han Jianming said: "He's not brainless, he's a **** heart......
Before he finished speaking, he heard Han Hao say outside: "Master, there is an urgent letter delivered in the house." ”
After reading the letter, Han Jianming stood in place for a while and did not speak.
Han Gao and Han Hao were a little apprehensive in their hearts, and finally Han Gao opened his mouth and asked, "Master, what happened to Ho City?"
Han Jianming said in a low voice, "Madame went." "No matter how many wrong things Ye has done, he is always the wife who has been with him for more than ten years. Now that the person is gone, he feels very uncomfortable in his heart.
Han Gao and Han Hao were not surprised, at the beginning of the month, they got the news that the eldest lady was seriously ill and had not many days.
On this day, white lanterns were hung on the gate of the Governor's Palace, all the brightly colored things in the mansion were replaced, and the subordinates also wore filial piety clothes, and even Han Jianming himself changed into plain clothes.
