Chapter 219: Surprised
After listening to her niece's crying and crying, Concubine Teng was obviously unhappy in her eyes, her son did it too much, but this yarn is also true, knowing that her son doesn't mean much to her, can't she bear it first?
After all, it was her own niece, she was still reluctant to let her cry sadly, and wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, "Okay, Sasha, since my aunt already knows about this matter, I will tell you about your cousin when I go back, so that he will not treat ......you like this next time."
This is equivalent to not saying it, Teng Shasha looked at her aunt in disbelief with tears in her eyes, "Auntie, it doesn't matter if Shasha is wronged, but my cousin is acting like this, doesn't he take my aunt in his eyes?" Didn't take the Teng family in your eyes? only blindly put his heart on the body of the Ye girl, and the yarn is not worth it for the aunt......"
Concubine Teng felt sorry for her niece is really distressed, but this is obviously to sow discord, if she can't hear it, then she doesn't have to mix in the inner house, so her face turned pale, "Shasha, what should be said, what should not be said, you are such a big person still don't understand?" No matter how bad Miss Ye is, she is also my daughter-in-law in the future, if you want to marry in as a concubine, you must respect this wife, I don't want to be anxious in the future because of the dispute between wives and concubines. My aunt has always loved you, just thinking that you are virtuous enough, such a little trick is brought to your aunt's face, don't you think it's a hatchet? ā
Teng Shasha's face, who was reprimanded by Concubine Teng, turned even paler, and she hurriedly knelt down, "Auntie, niece doesn't mean this, you misunderstood, niece is ......"
"Well, I know what you mean." Concubine Teng still couldn't bear to really punish her after all, and reached out to help the niece up, "This is a concubine, how unwilling you are, can your aunt not know?" My aunt is the one who came over, and she has been pressed on top of her head by the Zhu Chen family for 20 years, and she can't bear to come over? Finally, she can't bear it now, and she can't toss it anymore. If you marry a child in the future, you will also have to learn a forbearance word, you are fledgling now, what will you do to fight with that Ye girl? ā
Teng Shasha was originally a clear-minded person, and when she heard this aunt's words, it was nothing more than a forbearance word, and the light in her eyes flashed and flashed. She is different from her aunt after all, her aunt still has the wholehearted love of King Ruyang, but what do she have? The disgusted look of her cousin today echoed in her mind again, if she really married her cousin as a concubine, can she survive the day when her aunt is so proud and beautiful?
She eventually became suspicious of this.
Concubine Teng didn't know that this niece had thought so much in a short period of time, and she just tried to teach her the way to be a concubine.
The more she heard this, Teng Shasha's expectations for the future were extinguished, how could she win over her cousin? In the case where he hated her so much.
Concubine Teng saw that she was silent, patted her hand and said, "Okay, don't think so much, and my aunt will back you up, and you may not really lose to the Ye family's concubine in the future......"
This promise is like painting a pie, Teng Shasha came up with this idea for the first time.
When she came, she was very aggrieved and resentful, but at this time, she was confused, which was too far from what she imagined.
After reluctantly talking to her aunt for a while, she got up and said goodbye, saying that she was going back to the house.
Concubine Teng didn't stop her, but gave her a lot of rewards and shocks, and said that she would definitely teach Zhu Ziqi to be angry for her, but she could see from her aunt's eyes that her aunt's words were enough to believe only five points.
On the way out of the palace, she still turned a corner and walked towards the courtyard of Princess Zhu Chen.
"Cousin, isn't that the way out of the house?" The eldest girl beside Concubine Teng was busy.
"Sister Grape, I want to see how the princess looks down now." Teng Shasha hurriedly made an interested look.
Grape didn't think much about it, and said disdainfully: "What is there to look at her?" Now I don't know anyone, the prince is just a meal for her to eat, the people who used to be despised by her are now behind the back with color, it's funny to think about, the majestic Princess Ruyang is now ......not as good as a cat or a dog."
Teng Shasha's heart was shocked, but her face was not obvious, and she only said that the princess was suffering from a vicious illness and wanted to recuperate, and only a few people in the know knew about Zhu Chen's recent situation.
When she arrived at the main courtyard where Zhu Chen's family lived, this was once the most luxurious residence in the palace, but because of the owner, it now seemed desolate and ruined.
didn't enter the house, she just watched the cloaked Zhu Chen holding a pillow and smirking at the crack in the window, looking like she didn't know anything, and the subordinates who were supposed to wait for her were playing cards while eating her supplements, and no one went to wait for the princess who had become an idiot.
"Cousin, don't look at it, let's go back, isn't this an idiot, what's there to see?" Grape covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and said with disgust.
Teng Shasha's eyes flickered, without alarming anyone, she walked out along the way she came, and met the pot-bellied An Jiao on the way.
The two are not very familiar with each other, but they are just nodding friends.
When passing by, An Jiao called Teng Shasha, "I heard that you have been successfully shortlisted for the side room of the new prince, congratulations." ā
"There's nothing to congratulate." Teng Sha is authentic without joy.
"How is it not worth congratulating? You're going to fly on the branches in the future, and I can't envy it. An Jiao said a little sarcastically, pointing at Zhu Chen's family in the main courtyard, "I hope you don't end up like that one in the future, but I have seen with my own eyes how much this new princess likes this future princess, can you fight the future princess?" ā
"Either way, it's not your turn to sneer at me." Teng Shasha glanced at An Jiao's stomach and sneered, "I haven't entered the door of the palace yet, but unlike some people who have children with unrighteous names, they don't even have a way out, so they can only survive like this." As if thinking of something, she approached An Jiao again and said: "Tell you a piece of news, the evil seed in your belly, the prince has already made a decision, whether it is a man or a woman, it will be given to the side branch to raise, so as to never make waves in the future, as for you, it is to leave the son to the mother." ā
When An Jiao heard this, her pupils widened suddenly, and she grabbed Teng Shasha's arm suddenly, "What you said is true?" ā
"What did I lie to you?" Teng Shasha withdrew her arm, "This is what my aunt told me personally, because the Ye family doesn't want his family's concubine to raise such a son, and the prince can't clean up the mess for his unrelated brother-in-law, so the prince has to compromise in the end." ā
An Jiao took a few steps back with a pale face, holding her round belly in her hand, she didn't love this child, but she couldn't have any feelings after being pregnant for so long? And her life? The more she thought about it, the more she felt like she was falling into an ice cellar.
Teng Shasha didn't look at her again, but walked away.
Although she squeezed An Jiao with her words, she didn't feel happy, she didn't like her cousin, if Ye Manjun made her look like Zhu Chen's, just thinking about it, she felt cold sweat all over her body.
"Girl?"
At night, the maid saw that she was surprised by all the nightmares, and hurriedly lifted the curtain to help her up.
Teng Shasha lost her sleepiness, got out of bed in her clothes, put on her shoes, paced to the window and looked at the night outside the window, thinking of the humiliation during the day, and the fists under her sleeves clenched tightly.
But when she thought of Zhu Chen, she loosened her fist again, she didn't have her cousin's love, it was impossible for her to compete with her aunt like her wife, and she counted on her aunt as a backing, which was obviously delusional.
As soon as the sky was bright, Teng Shasha fell ill.
As the side room of the future prince of Ruyang Palace, the Teng family is absolutely concerned about her, and it is both a medical extension and a blessing, but Teng Shasha is still quite ill.
This news reached the ears of Lin Long and Ye Manjun, and the two sisters-in-law glanced at each other, which one is Teng Shasha singing?
"Whether it's pretended or real, it's not bad news." Lin Long was quite satisfied with the result.
Ye Manjun smiled indifferently, "I don't judge her, it's just sister-in-law, her illness won't come from that weather, right?" ā
"Who knows." Lin Long didn't care about the authentic words, "I can't care about other people's so many idle things, let's go, let's look at the fabric and ......"
When the carriage stopped, she immediately lifted the curtain and was helped out of the carriage by the maid, and just at this time, a carriage drove by, because of the strong winter wind, the curtains of the carriage were not tightened, and she seemed to see a rather familiar face.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you? What are you looking at here? Ye Manjun saw Lin Long standing on the low stool, not up and down, he seemed to be a little stunned, and he was busy worrying about the tunnel.
Lin Long woke up at this time, and when she looked at it again, the carriage had already driven away, she turned countless thoughts for a while, glanced at Aunt Xin on the side, and asked her to chase the carriage before.
Aunt Xin understood, and flashed to chase the carriage.
Seeing this, Ye Manjun had to stand on the ground, and she hurriedly grabbed her sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, what's the situation?" ā
Lin Long raised his index finger to her lips, "Sister-in-law, don't ask yet, I'll tell you when I get back." ā
Although Ye Manjun was curious, he was not the gossip person, so he had to nod his head in agreement, "Sister-in-law, let's go, let's go and see the unique cloud yarn in Ruyang City, which is difficult to buy in the capital, take this opportunity to buy more, and bring it back just for the mother and the aunt and the aunt......"
"It's still thoughtful, no wonder your mother-in-law likes you so much." Lin Long was quite satisfied with Ye Manjun's ventilation, and was quite interested in this latter topic.
The two sisters-in-law smiled and walked into the cloth shop.
It's just that in the process of purchasing, Lin Long was always a little distracted, obviously not on this.
Ye Manjun didn't know why, but he didn't ask again.
When the two of them bought a large amount of cloth and returned home, Aunt Xin still didn't see anyone.
got into the carriage and went home, and halfway through, Aunt Xin appeared.
Lin Long immediately lifted the curtain of the carriage, "Did you keep up with the carriage?" Do you know where they live? ā
"Grandma, punish me, the man in this carriage is quite cunning, and I lost it in the end." Aunt Xin's face was annoyed, but she was still angry that she hadn't completed the errand.
Lin Long couldn't hide his disappointment, but he didn't scold Aunt Xin, "Aunt Xin, you don't need to blame yourself, if you lose it, you will lose it." After a pause, she frowned again and asked, "By the way, Aunt Xin, has the other party found your whereabouts?" ā
Aunt Xin pondered for a while and shook her head, "It shouldn't be, I'm very careful with me." ā
Lin Long nodded, and said a few words of comfort, then closed the curtains of the car and turned around to sit down.
"Sister-in-law, this?" Ye Manjun looked curious, and finally couldn't help but ask, who is this tracking?
Lin Long approached his sister-in-law and said in a low voice, "I seem to see the Nine Princes." ā
"Him?" Ye Manjun's eyes widened in surprise, fortunately, he was not the one who was shocked since he was a child, so he did not lose his temper, and finally digested the words of his sister-in-law, and she said again: "Sister-in-law, isn't this ninth prince in the capital?" Why did you come to Ruyang City? Could it be that you are blinded by the mistake? ā
"I hope so, but it's not surprising that he comes to Ruyang City." Lin Long responded coldly.
Ye Manjun suddenly thought of the incident of her brother and sister-in-law encountering water bandits when she came, and contacted her sister-in-law's cold attitude at this moment, Bing Xue was smart and she seemed to be thinking more and more, and at this moment she seemed to have discovered a big secret.
Lin Long saw Ye Manjun's expression change and change, and hurriedly held her hand, "If you have anything to say, let's go back and talk about it." ā
Ye Manjun nodded cautiously, this is not a trivial matter, and it is not her style to shout casually.
The two sisters-in-law returned to the house with a heavy heart, and Ma Lan came out.
"Mrs. Hou and Miss Ye have gained a lot today."
Lin Long was helped into the hall by the maid, "I want to bring it back to Beijing as a favor, so I have to buy more." ā
Ma Lanshi stretched his neck to look at the movement of his subordinates, and couldn't help but be speechless, this cloud yarn is very expensive, this Mrs. Hou is really a rich lord.
Lin Long had something on his mind, and he seemed a little absent-minded when talking to Ma Lan's, and Ma Lan's thought she was tired, so he said goodbye and left with humor.
Lin Long hurriedly called the bandit stone in, "Go, ask where the uncle is, if he is in the house, let him come back, and say that I have something to look for him." ā
Bandit Shi hurriedly withdrew to find Ye Xuyao.
Ye Manjun said: "Sister-in-law, tell your eldest brother about this now?" ā
"Sooner rather than later." Lin Long said very decisively.
Ye Manjun thought about it, but he didn't rush to go back to change his clothes first, but sat down and waited for his eldest brother to come back with his sister-in-law.
Ye Xuyao happened to go back to the house, and was discussing things with Master Ma, when he heard the report from the bandit Shi that his wife was looking for him, he frowned, didn't ask what was the matter, just got up and told Master Ma about the crime.
Master Ma smiled: "Young couple, it is common sense for Mrs. Hou to think that Master Hou is also in common sense. ā
Ye Xuyao nodded lightly, and did not react too much to this, but it made Master Ma so embarrassed, he wanted to slap himself in the mouth, he wanted to say this to get closer to each other, but he didn't seem to accept his words.
Hurriedly entered the backyard, Ye Xuyao thought that something had happened to his wife, but when he lifted the curtain, he saw that his wife was sitting and talking to his sister, so he breathed a sigh of relief, "What's the matter with calling me?" ā
Lin Long hurriedly got up and pulled her husband to sit down, anyway, it was a family, and she also sat next to her husband, "I naturally have something to say when I call you back." ā
Ye Xuyao glanced at his wife, and his sister who was obviously in a daze opposite, what the hell are these two doing? Still, he made a gesture of listening.
"That's right, husband, I seem to see the ...... of the Nine Princes"
Lin Long didn't go around in circles, and bluntly told her husband about her shocking glance, although she was not sure if it was a mistake, but she would rather kill the mistake than let it go, this nine princes even wanted to assassinate them on the way to Ruyang in order to rebel, and they still hated it when they thought of it.
When Ye Xuyao heard this, his face did not change, but his eyes narrowed slightly, obviously he listened to his heart.
"Lady, you have made a contribution this time." He was right.
"I'm not sure, just in case." Lin Long was afraid that he would be overjoyed, so she hurriedly emphasized this sentence again, this is her husband's errand, and she can't mislead her husband because of this.
"Yes or no, I'll find out." Ye Xuyao reassured her.
"Big brother, I seem to remember something that I have overlooked." Ye Manjun was obviously in a daze at this moment, and suddenly came to such a sentence.
"Tell me about it." Ye Xuyao said.
Ye Manjun was still organizing the language, and after a while, he said again: "Big brother, sister-in-law, do you remember that I told you how Zhu Ziran died?" ā
Both husband and wife were impressed, and nodded hurriedly.
Ye Manjun continued: "I remember that when Zhu Ziran was stabbed to death by Zhu Chen, he seemed to have been reciting what nine before he died, and at that time, I didn't care too much about Zhu Erye, thinking that he was just babbling before he died, and now that I think about it, it seems that there are many doubts about his death......"
The husband and wife glanced at each other, especially Ye Xuyao, his sister's words were quite important to him, in this way, it seemed that a series of things could be connected, seeing his sister pause, he urged, "Go on." ā
The elder brother's attention obviously encouraged Ye Manjun, and she tilted her head as if she was trying to recall the situation that day, "...... At that time, Zhu Ziran's body was obviously crooked, which gave Zhu Chen's family a chance to take advantage of it, otherwise how could Zhu Ziran, a big man, let Zhu Chen's fight back so lightly? It can only be said that Zhu Ziran's death is not simple......"
Recalling it at this moment, she found that she was too shocked to ignore many doubts, and she also said in a cold sweat, if the Nine Princes intended to rebel, then it would not be surprising that others were in Ruyang City.
Lin Long was also shocked when she heard this, her hand clenched her husband's big palm, and when Ye Manjun stopped, she said: "How do I think this is murder and extermination, if this is true, so Zhu Zijie's death is not simple." ā
Ye Manjun also sighed, "It seems that this should be the case, but these are all our speculations in the end......"
"Nope." Ye Xuyao interrupted his sister's words loudly, and said with a clear gaze: "It is very likely that we are already close to the truth." After shaking his wife's hand, he got up, "Don't talk about this, I'll go to talk to Zhu Shizi now, if he is really in Ruyang City, there will be another storm in Ruyang City." ā
If you don't go to Zhu Yi, the king of Ruyang, it proves that in his mind, Zhu Ziqi is obviously a more suitable candidate.
Ye Manjun heard his eldest brother raise his future husband like this, and a little smile appeared on his face, "I know the severity, big brother, don't worry." ā
"Do we still use your commands? Naturally, it will not be a bad mouth. Lin Long got up and dressed her husband before letting him go.
Sitting down again, she reached out to hold Ye Manjun's slightly cold hand, "Speaking of which, your misfortune is caused by these Nine Princes." ā
Ye Manjun smiled open-mindedly, "No, I still want to thank him, if it weren't for his trouble, I wouldn't have met Second Master Zhu, let alone married him with him." ā
In her heart, Zhu Zijie is not even a guest in life, this man has no meaning to her, if she really marries him, it is estimated that in a few decades, she will become another Zhu Chen.
Lin Long looked at Ye Manjun, who was not entangled, and said with emotion: "It should be your happiness, and you can't leave." ā
Ye Manjun smiled and nodded generously, at this moment, she only wanted happiness for a lifetime.
At this time, the ninth prince, Zhu Sa, was a guest in the house of the magnates of Ruyang City.
The head of the Rong family personally served him tea, "Nine princes, please use it." ā
Zhu Sa nodded lightly, "How do you think about this king's mention of yƬ?" ā
"My sister is sad all day long for the death of her nephew...... "The head of the Rong family also wanted to bargain.
Concubine Rong walked out from behind the screen with firm steps, her face full of determination. "Big brother, what else do you want to think? My son Ran died in vain, and the person who killed him is still alive in the world, and the Nine Princes now want to avenge us, why don't we accept it? ā
Zhu Sa was not surprised by her appearance, Zhu Ziran died in the hands of Zhu Chen's family like that, how could this woman in front of him not hate? If he only provoked him slightly, the woman would bite him lightly.
"Sister, you go back first......" The head of the Rong family said busily, saying that she was just listening, why did she run out?
"I won't go back, that Zhu Yi is unlucky, I just want to kill the woman to avenge my son, he is good, he sent me home like this, he is unkind to me." Speaking of this, she laughed out loud, and the hatred and madness in her eyes were no less than that of Zhu Chen's before, "I still remember my son's death vividly, and this account has to be settled." ā
"The head of the Rong family, Ling Mei is the heroine hero, refreshing enough, the opposition is you a big man, but he hesitates, but it is underestimated, not even as a woman." The Nine Princes deliberately used the method of agitation, "Seeking wealth and danger, your Rong family is willing to bow down and be a vassal all the time?" The establishment of this Ruyang City was also due to your ancestors. ā
The head of the Rong family is naturally unwilling, there was a nephew to support before, but now that the nephew is dead, the candidate for the side room of the Zhu Zi period, the daughter of their Rong family is unlikely to be favored, but I am afraid that the future situation will not be as good as my sister, and this prospect is worrying.
"Brother, are you a man or not?" Concubine Rong urged.
In the end, the head of the Rong family looked grim and agreed to cooperate with Zhu Sa.
Zhu Sa had a clear smile on his face, without a Zhu Chen clan, he could still make waves in this Ruyang City, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became bigger and bigger.
The border of Ruyang City.
Inside the tent of the march, a tall man seemed to be sharpening his broadsword in earnest, while a lobbyist sat opposite him.
"General Huo, haven't you really forgotten your family's blood feud?" āā
