Chapter 7: Jasper's Intentions

After Shen Jinyu asked, Biyu's tears remained again, she took Shen Jinyu's handkerchief, covered her face with a handkerchief, calmed down for a while, and then replied: "Miss, she, she has already left." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Shen Jinyu was stunned, gone, what does it mean to be gone? She asked blankly: "Isn't she a married daughter, speaking of which, even if Uncle Han is exiled, it will not be as guilty as her." ”

Biyu said with tears in her eyes: "The eldest lady married the third son of the Dong family in Longxi, when Lord Han was convicted, the Dong family was on the side of the second prince, and the adult was not convicted, before the exile, Mrs. Han couldn't stand it, and stayed in prison for a while, and left." The eldest lady was already eight months pregnant at that time, and when she learned the news, she gave birth to a girl that night, and on the third day after giving birth, Lord Han and Han Ergongzi were convicted, and the eldest lady insisted on going out of the city to send them, and when she returned home, the dowry was cleared, and she divorced her wife with seven disobedient parents and many words. ”

Speaking of this, Biyu couldn't stop crying, she slowed down, took a deep breath, and reluctantly continued: "The eldest lady took me to live in her dowry village, and that night was a little bad. ”

Biyu glanced at Cheng Xuan, who was sitting on the side, the affairs of her daughter's family, she was not good in front of outsiders, and it was not easy to say it too bluntly. didn't say how bad it was, only paused and then said: "I helped the eldest lady hire a doctor, and the eldest lady also said that she should take good care of her body and wait for Lord Han and the second son to come back." The next day, when I asked someone to inquire about the situation of the little lady in the Dong Mansion, I heard that the little lady was gone. ”

"What about Dong Sangongzi, didn't he show up from beginning to end?" Shen Jinyu asked.

A look of resentment flashed in Biyu's eyes and said, "He, even when the eldest lady was buried, he didn't appear again." ”

In fact, Shen Jinyu had already understood that Han Zhenzhen had passed away, but she couldn't accept it for a while, and now when she heard the word burial, she couldn't be confused anymore, she sat on the Taishi chair, sat straight, bit her lower lip hard, and her eyes were red and about to drip blood.

A woman is not only a woman, even if she is married, she also represents the parents and clansmen behind her, if the husband's family is ruthless, she will lose this waste chess. Neither she nor her husband had a choice.

Shen Jinyu only felt a chill behind her.

At this time, Biyu was still saying: "On the third night after the little lady disappeared, the eldest lady didn't survive. I buried her, sold all her dowry that could be sold, and stored it in the bank, so that the little lady could get it back in the future, and she would also be able to have a decent dowry. In my life, it's worth it. ”

After Biyu finished speaking, she was relieved, covered her face with a handkerchief and cried bitterly.

Shen Jinyu sat on the chair, silent.

Cheng Xuan waited for a while, and when both of them calmed down a little, he said to Biyu: "Miss Shen came to see you early in the morning, and she hasn't taken medicine yet, so I will take her medicine and come to see you again." ”

Biyu stopped crying slightly, and then looked at Shen Jinyu and said, "Miss, why did you lose weight like this, blame me, and tell you these sad things." ”

Shen Jinyu got up, put her arms around Biyu's shoulders comfortingly and said, "Why do you need to be like this between you and me." I'll take the medicine first, and then I'll come to you, with me, we can discuss everything, and you're no longer alone. Sister Biyu, you pack your things and wait for me to take you away. ”

Cheng Xuan intercepted Shen Jinyu's words and said, "Miss Jasper, you pack up your things, Miss Shen will naturally come to you after taking the medicine." ”

Shen Jinyu knew that Cheng Xuan had something to say, so she said goodbye to Biyu and followed her to the outside of the courtyard.

The soft sedan chair and a group of people who had sent Shen Jinyu before were all gone at this time. Cheng Xuan walked towards a bamboo forest outside the courtyard.

Shen Jinyu didn't ask anything, and followed behind.

There is a bamboo pavilion at the end of the bamboo forest, built according to the lake, the lake surface is clear, the water is shining, and the mighty can not see the edge.

Cheng Xuan took Shen Jinyu to the bamboo pavilion, where a round table was placed in the center of the pavilion and four round stools were surrounded by it. He found himself a round stool and sat down.

Shen Jinyu sat opposite Cheng Xuan.

They sat down, Shen Jinyu hadn't slept all night, she got up early and heard bad news, her patience had been exhausted a little, so she stopped beating around the bush and asked directly, "Can I take Biyu away?" ”

Cheng Xuan asked rhetorically: "What do you do to protect the three of you?" ”

Shen Jinyu was silent for a while, and replied, "I have my own way to protect myself. ”

Cheng Xuan stared at Shen Jinyu's eyes, without a trace of a smile, snorted disdainfully, and asked, "With those little tricks of yours, wrap the pearl in the pill and hide the silver ticket in the cover mezzanine of the book?" Or do you rely on your brother's practice of the Mixed Yuan Boy Skill, which is not yet very proficient? ”

Shen Jinyu knew Cheng Xuan not long ago, but on the way back to Beijing, Cheng Xuan was polite, smiled before speaking, and was always very polite, although she thought that they should have checked her luggage, but she didn't expect that her younger brother had internal kung fu They could also be clear, and suddenly heard him sneering, quite uncomfortable.

She didn't get as angry as Cheng Xuan imagined, but her face turned red and then a little gloomy, after a while, she adjusted her mood, looked back at Cheng Xuan down, and replied: "Although the trick is small, it can also protect the temporary peace of me and my brother in Lingnan. ”

Cheng Xuan secretly admired in his heart, he was really smart, he was in a weak position, he could not be provoked in the face of his own anger and sarcasm, and although he was flustered, he could calm down as soon as possible.

He had planned to provoke her to anger, and when she was out of order, he would take advantage of it and leave her behind. This girl is too watertight to do things.

Cheng Xuan sighed with a wry smile: "Gyeonggi is a major land, and it will not be chaotic. The calm waves can not be seen with the naked eye, Miss Shen, it is the fault of the contemptible people who have inquired about you on the road before, but is Cheng Mansion a wolf's den and a tiger's den? That's what keeps you avoided. ”

Shen Jinyu didn't reply, her eyes passed over Cheng Xuan's side, looking at the lake behind him, what was she afraid of, afraid of wealth, afraid of trouble, afraid of admitting enemies as friends, selling herself to take refuge, and afraid of pulling her younger brother who didn't know the world into the quagmire, too much fear, too much fear. What about leaving, would it be better to leave?

Cheng Xuan sincerely persuaded: "I took you back to Beijing to repay your kindness, but today I will take you to see the jade girl, it is indeed a temptation, I just want to know how much friendship you can have with Lord Han Dong, you said that since you were a child, you must be familiar with the eldest lady of the Han family, how can you not be familiar with the jade girl who accompanies her, although I have no personal relationship with Lord Han, but he is a capable minister, not a party, not private, but he tries his best to maintain the orthodox status of the imperial grandson, and was convicted of being tainted for it, I have been the prince's companion since I was a child, and he is like a brother, How could you ignore Lord Han's relatives and friends. ”

Shen Jinyu showed a thoughtful expression on her face, and Cheng Xuan continued: "If you don't worry about this matter, you can ask Biyu, she followed Miss Han, and later when Lord Han Yu was imprisoned and was not convicted, she ran around with Miss Han. ”

Shen Jinyu asked, "You are so earnest to keep me, just because of Han Dong's friend, just to repay your kindness?" ”

She smiled skeptically and shook her head: "I just want to ask for an understanding of everything." ”

Cheng Xuan said: "For Lord Han, but also to repay the favor." Of course, this is not all, you are the grandson of Shen Zheng, you should understand that from the day you returned to Beijing, some people will be worried about you. Earlier, Lord Han was a capable minister, and he could protect you, but now, you are alone, and there is no way to be alone. Even if I let you go, there are people who can't let you go. Now that Lord Han has been convicted, it is because everyone's situation is unstable, and the timing of your coming to Beijing is too unfortunate. ”

Shen Jinyu looked into the distance with a blank face, stunned for a stick of incense, and then replied: "What do you want me to do, I am a woman, I don't say it, I can't explain my grandfather's whereabouts now, and we have been looking for him for many years." As for the younger brother, he was young and didn't know anything. ”

Cheng Xuan said with a smile: "Political affairs, the truth is virtual, and the virtual is real, the more people who are not on the scene, the more people can never forget." Just like the clay statue on the temple, how can he ever show his true body, but there are many believers. So, if you are not in my house, there will be others who will need you, a mud bodhisattva. Let me make it clear, even if I don't use you, I must not let others use you. ”

Shen Jinyu bowed her head and was silent, she seemed to be pushed by an invisible hand, and from the day she entered the tent, many things were out of her control. She just needs to wait until her younger brother grows up, or, when the situation calms down, she can go to Uncle Han or wait for her father and mother in the capital, so she doesn't have to stay here, it's only two years.

She originally grew up in the market, and although her grandfather demanded many things from her, she still loved freedom in the mountains and forests. When she was a child, she stayed in the Han Mansion, just watching Han Zhenzhen act, she already felt the embarrassment of the boudoir woman, she was young at the time, although she didn't understand the deep meaning, but she also faintly felt that the courtyard was deep, and now she was forced to stay due to the situation, and she had a few more inexplicable grievances in her heart.

But to see that Biyu can stay here instead of being coerced, first of all, the Han family and the Cheng family must be on the same front, stay first, and then ask Jasper carefully, and then go to the temple to find help.

She reluctantly nodded and said: "Okay, it's just that if I stay, first, there can't be anything that affects my brother, he really doesn't know anything, and second, everything, I just want to understand, even if I want to use me, I must also be clear." ”

Cheng Xuan readily agreed.

After the two finished talking, they were about to leave, and Cheng Xuan asked Shen Jinyu a little strangely: "Aren't you curious about the jade girl, don't you want to know why she is like this?" ”

Shen Jinyu said with a little dissatisfaction: "After experiencing the war, I always feel that everything is just like this, the dowry of the sister of the Han family must be a lot, the jasper is beautiful, the master is weak, even if there are a few loyal servants, they are not capable of self-protection, what will happen, I can't bear to ask." Bringing it up again is tantamount to revealing people's wounds, how cruel it is. ”

After Shen Jinyu finished speaking, she seemed to realize her gaffe, she was originally following Cheng Xuan, but because of anger, she walked quickly in front of Cheng Xuan, her face turned into a red cloud, and slowly, casually, she slowed down her pace, and moved behind Cheng Xuan little by little.
