Volume 1, Chapter 1: The Beginning
In the Great Yuan Dynasty, in the thirty-eighth year of Emperor Zhengxi, in front of the mansion of Lang Lianjia, the right attendant of the Ministry of Works, was full of cars and horses, and people came and went, so it was not lively.
The ancestors of the Lian family have been in and out of a number of Jinshi Juren, and there have been two champions, one of whom is the grandfather of Master Lian, and later the official worships the first-class scholar. Even the old man's father is the leader, and the younger brother is Tanhualang. Even the three generations of the family are now a good story in the capital.
Today is the 60th birthday of the old lady of the Lian family, and everyone is here to pay homage to the old lady Lian. Even the old lady was wearing a red five-blessing longevity jacket, a dark red six-panel skirt, decorated with gold three things on the placket, her hair was combed without mess, and the beads were green, looking kind and kind, rich and peaceful.
Mrs. Lian was laughing with the guests. A girl in a red silk jacket came in from outside, walked up to Mrs. Lian, and said a few words in Mrs. Lian's ear. Even the old lady frowned, judging from her demeanor, it was obviously a bad thing. But soon, even the old lady turned her head and spoke happily to everyone, as if nothing had happened just now.
After a while, everyone heard a commotion outside. A maid hurriedly walked in and said, "Old lady, it's not good, a crazy woman has kidnapped Young Master Lin. ”
Even the old lady chuckled in her heart. The young master Lin that the girl said was a son born to Lian Yuebing, the daughter who married into Luyang Houfu. Although Lian Yue is the stepfamily, the son born to the original spouse has passed away, and now Lin Shao is the best candidate to inherit the title of Marquis.
Even the old lady immediately went to the place where the accident occurred. Reading > novel xstxt and others followed. When they arrived at the destination, everyone saw a woman with several long earthworm-like scars on her face, holding Young Master Lin hostage with a sharp knife at this time, and the tip of the knife was against Young Master Lin's neck. As long as the knife is forced, Young Master Lin will die.
Lian Yuebing screamed, "Who are you? Why are my children hijacked"
The woman with the dagger in her hand sneered, "Why, Lian Yuebing, you don't know me so soon?" It's really a noble person, how can I say that I have been a sister for more than ten years. ”
Lian Yuebing was terrified after carefully identifying it: "You, you are Yueyao?" How is it possible, aren't you dead? ”
Even the old lady looked gloomily at the woman with the knife: "Come on, take her down for me." ”
Lian Yueyao listened to Mrs. Lian's words, and the sharp sword pierced the child's delicate skin. said coldly: "Whoever dares to come, I will kill him." Lian Yueyao was very sure that Mo didn't dare to move.
Lian Yuebing pulled Mrs. Lian's arm and begged bitterly: "Mother, can't, mother, she will hurt Lin'er." ”
Old Madam Lian looked at Lian Yueyao viciously. She wanted to have this woman's mouth gagged at this time, otherwise she would definitely talk nonsense later. But he is also afraid of the grandson in the hands of this woman, Lin Er is Lu Yanghou's only heir, if he dies, the Lian family will definitely be retaliated against by Lu Yanghou. Now it's a real mouse-thrower.
Lian Yueyao saw the appearance of Old Madam Lian: "Mo, you also have today." Do you know when you are afraid? ”
Old lady Lian stared at Lian Yueyao, if she looked at her, she could kill, Lian Yueyao didn't know how many times she had died.
Lian Yuebing looked at her son's neck covered with blood, and begged bitterly at the moment: "Sister Yueyao, from childhood to adulthood, I will let you do everything." Treat you like a sister. For the sake of the past, do not hurt my children. Please. ”
Lian Yueyao looked at Lian Yuebing: "Mo, did you hear your daughter's pleading for me?" How did I cry out to you that day? But what did you do to me? ”
The old lady said with a cold face: "It's good that something is coming at me, and there is no need to implicate innocent children." Putting the kids down? "If it weren't for the estimation of Brother Lin in Lian Yueyao's hands, the old lady would have ordered someone to kill him immediately.
Lian Yueyao looked at Old Madam Lian's face and did not move, and a smile flashed on her face. This smile made even the old lady feel cold in her heart: "You also know that you are innocent?" Mohs, people are doing the sky and watching. You took all the money from our second room to pave the way for your children, and exchanged my marriage for your children to reach a higher level. When I had no more use value, you sold me to Zhou Shu, a merchant in Haicheng, as a concubine. Externally, they announced that I was sick and dead. It is said that the most poisonous woman's heart, your heart is really more poisonous than a poisonous scorpion. ”
As soon as Yueyao's words fell, there was an uproar at the scene. What is the concept of all the household assets in the second room. At that time, the second master of the Lian family was a salt patrol in the imperial history, and the real fat shortage, the family assets accumulated in the past few years are definitely not a small amount. In addition, Lian Dongbo's wife, Ma, is also the eldest daughter of the Lihou Ma family. Back then, it was also ten miles of red makeup.
There were still some people's eyes on the spot looking at the eldest lady of the Shen family who came over. The eldest lady of the Shen family felt everyone's scrutiny and turned cold: "Girl, you died of illness back then. Our Shen family doesn't know about it, and my uncle has guarded the ...... for you."
As soon as the words of the eldest lady of the Shen family fell, Lian Yueyao sneered and said: "Don't be hypocritical here, your second son of the Shen family has won the favor of the daughter of the prime minister's house, and I, an orphan with no father and mother, hinder the path of your second son's green clouds." Your Shen family wants to quit this family business, and you don't want to bear a reputation for treachery, so you want such a vicious plan. I only complained that I was too stupid, and I actually believed in you, a poisonous woman, Mo's, so that no one told me about being wronged. Speaking of this, Lian Yueyao looked at Mrs. Shen with a knife in her eyes: "Your Shen family wants to climb high branches and dislike me as an orphan girl, I have nothing to say." But you have destroyed me in order to achieve your purpose. It's a shame that your Shen family still dares to boast of being a scholarly and honest family, which is really shameless to the extreme. If my father had known, he would have regretted why he had saved such a hypocritical person. ”
The eldest lady of the Shen family listened to Yueyao's words with a knife, and her face changed a lot. She didn't know much about the divorce. But she knew that the second master of the Lian family had indeed saved her father-in-law's life, and the grace of saving her life was a great grace. This is also why after Lian Yueyao's death, the Shen family still had contacts with the Lian family.
At this time, the eldest lady of the Lian family, Peng, immediately stood up and said, "Girl, what you said is really incredible. Even if the Shen family wants to withdraw from the family, it is a big deal to set a family for you again. How could they sell you to a merchant as a concubine? You are the daughter of the Lian family, do you know what kind of situation the Lian family will fall into if you frame the Lian family like this? ”
Lian Yueyao smiled sadly, gritted her teeth at the lady present and said word by word: "I don't know what deal Mo has with Zhou Shu. I only know that I was sent to Zhuangzi in the countryside by the Mo family, and it didn't take long for me to marry me to Zhou Shu, who was said to have entered Beijing to take the exam. However, Zhou Shu is not a lifter, he is a sea merchant. I'm just a concubine bought by Zhou Shu, and I know that I will destroy myself in the future...... This face was cut by my own hands. After speaking, Lian Yueyao touched the long scars on her face.
The lady present looked at the scarred and terrifying face, and no one doubted Lian Yueyao's words. If a woman is not desperate to the extreme, she will never destroy her appearance.
Peng felt everyone's judgmental and even contemptuous gazes, and his legs softened. The maid holding her felt Peng trembling very clearly. Peng was scared, really scared. If this matter is confirmed, the family will be over. At this time, the Peng family looked at Mrs. Lian, hoping that Mrs. Lian would turn the tide, otherwise the capital would have a foothold in the Wulian family.
Even the old lady didn't show the slightest emotion on her face, and looked at Lian Yueyao coldly at this time: "It's over, put the child down when you're done." ”
Lian Yueyao's face regained her calm at this time, looked at Old Madam Lian and said, "Mo Shi, if I fall into your hands, life will be worse than death." I don't want to suffer anymore. I'm tired, I just want to go to Jiuquan to see my parents. With that, the sharp tip of the knife had already stabbed the child's neck. Just now, it just scratched the skin, but now it is directly pierced into it.
Lian Yuebing saw the blood on the child's neck, and was suddenly born: "Yueyao, I beg you, let my child go." I beg you, it's okay to let my baby go. He's still so young. ”
Lian Yueyao listened to Lian Yuebing's pleading, looked up at the sky and muttered: "Mother, you told me that people are sinister and asked me to protect myself, but I didn't listen to you. Mother, I don't blame anyone for falling into today's position, only for my own lack of eyes. Dad, Mom, I miss you very much. After speaking, Lian Yueyao let go of the child and knelt on the ground.
This move made everyone around him breathe a sigh of relief. Lian Yuebing hugged her frightened son, her eyes full of tears.
Seeing that Lian Yueyao let go of the child, Mrs. Lian shouted loudly: "Come on, take her up." Don't let her talk crazy here...... "Hold people up, and then think about dissipating these words." Even if it can't be dissipated, the damage should be minimized.
Before even the old lady's words fell, everyone saw Lian Yueyao's knife reversed, pierced into their hearts, and pulled it out again. In an instant, blood gushed out like a fountain. and they fell to the ground.
The eldest lady of the Lian family, Peng, fainted when she saw such a scene. Peng was not so frightened that he fainted, but was stunned by the consequences of this incident.
Old Mrs. Lian, who had always been calm, saw Lian Yueyao lying in a pool of blood, and her heart sank. If Lian Yueyao hadn't died, she could still think of ways to minimize the damage, but Lian Yueyao was dead, and there was no way to eliminate these effects. Lianjia may face a catastrophe.
This matter spread out as quickly as possible, and the imperial history was folded to the heavens, and the emperor did not send it.
Not long after, Lord Zuo Cheng Li Guoxun, who was a close friend of Lian Yueyao's father, also presented a letter to the emperor.
The emperor still did not send it.
The emperor has this attitude, and the people below naturally speculate on the holy will. No one is on the fold anymore. The reason for this is what everyone speculates.
Things are deadlocked.
On this day, the wife of the prince of the Duke of Qi, Luo Shi, entered the palace to visit the queen mother's aunt. The Queen Mother is an extremely intelligent person, knowing that the emperor is not her own, she must not be as filial as a son. So after the emperor ascended the throne, she used to just have fun and ignore everything, and her only preference was to listen to some folk stories. Treating such a queen mother, the emperor is naturally a filial son. The relationship between mother and son is very harmonious.
The Queen Mother listened to her niece talk about what happened to this woman, and she felt a little pity for what happened to this woman. The Queen Mother had this trace of pity, and then sighed with the emperor for a long time. In and out of the words, it should be strictly moved. As a result, the people involved in this case have their own destinations.
