Chapter 113: Princess An's Past
On this day in General Zhenyuan's Mansion, Ye Xici discovered many things about Fang Xiaoyu that he didn't know before.
Although I have heard of it before, I can't compare to what I have seen with my own eyes.
Legend has it that Fang Haozhi, who almost has the same tragic fate as her, is not in the house, he saw it last time he went to the dry Zen Temple, he was small, thin and weak, although because of the sudden change in Fang Xiaoyu, he was no longer as frightened as before, but the body that was almost dragged down before was still not so easy to be made up for lightly.
However, this kid is a resolute man. Presumably, Fang Xiaoyu sent him to the Kuzen Temple to be practiced by Master Xuyun, not only to avoid possible dangers, but also to allow him to learn some skills, after all, Master Xuyun had traveled around, and what he saw and heard had obvious benefits for a person's broad-sightedness.
Ye Xici came today on the grounds of 'visiting General Fang for the emperor', so although this is not the main purpose, it still has to go through the motions.
The old hammer has eaten a lot of weight these days, he is not sick or sick, pretending to be a wounded general in the house, most of the time he can only lie down, bird's nest and all kinds of supplements to drink, where has he ever lived such a good life as boiled water to drink?
Still pretending to be weak and lying on the bed, but his complexion doesn't look as bad as before. As long as he pretended to be like it, he didn't reveal other flaws, just a few glances, and Ye Xici didn't find anything wrong.
After saying a few words of encouragement, Ye Xici did not delay 'Fang Jianzhang' to recuperate from his injuries, and retreated silently. While waiting for dinner, he mostly sat with the Sixteenth Prince and Ye Xinrou.
During this period, he asked Ye Xinrou a lot about Fang Xiaoyu, and Ye Xinrou was dedicated to matching the two, so she naturally knew everything and said everything.
He also saw with his own eyes that Zhou Zifeng seemed to be going to make trouble with Fang Xiaoyu, and he wanted to help him, but he was stopped by Ye Xinrou, and concluded that Zhou Zifeng couldn't please Fang Xiaoyu. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Zhou Zifeng to leave in a more angry posture than when he came. The hatred and resentment in his eyes only lingered in the eyes for a while, but they instantly returned to nothingness.
"It's like that." Ye Xici looked at Zhou Zifeng's departing back, his eyebrows and eyes lowered, so that people couldn't see his expression at the moment.
"What's really like it?" Ye Xinrou was feeding Ye Shuqing pastries when she heard Ye Xici's deep voice. Suddenly felt the change in Ye Xi's resignation.
Ye Xi straightened out the wrinkled sleeves that were grabbed by Ye Shuqing, and said with a somewhat reluctant smile: "That Zhou Zifeng is the son of Mei Suxi and that businessman?" ”
"Yes, at the beginning, Mei Su cherished the identity of the prime minister's concubine, and General Fang wanted to repay the prime minister's life-saving grace. was afraid that the prime minister would be sad, so he accepted him back as a concubine. thought that she should be an honest person after being deceived by a man, but she didn't expect to get even worse when she entered the General's Mansion. General Fang has done his best, not only received the remnants of his old pearl yellow flowers, but even left his son behind, but Na Mei was not only grateful, but also dealt with General Fang, and repeatedly poisoned Xiao Yu and his younger brothers and sisters in private. If it weren't for the fact that there was a maid in this house who used to be Xiaoyu's mother and carefully guarded by her aunt, I'm afraid that Xiaoyu would have been reincarnated for several years now. ”
Since Ye Xinrou had a good relationship with Fang Xiaoyu, she really despised Mei Suxi's behavior.
When I think about it, I just laughed at these things. After all, she is a person who has nothing to do with herself, this is a great inheritance, and there are so many unfortunate people, how can she come over pitifully. But once Fang Xiaoyu became her friend, even if Mei Suxi did something sorry for Fang Xiaoyu, in her opinion, it would be heinous.
"That Zhou Zifeng's gaze is exactly the same as Ye Xiqian." Ye Xici sneered. So he has always felt that the life experienced by Fang Xiaoyu really has many similarities with himself.
After the early death of the mother, it was like a rootless duckweed. The only difference is that Fang Xiaoyu is at least lucky to have a father who loves her, and he. In this world, he has no relatives, all of them are enemies who want to take his life.
And Zhou Zifeng, he only saw this side from afar. From his gaze, he read the same taste as Ye Xiqian.
Hypocritical and cunning. Greedy and vicious.
Ye Xinrou smiled disdainfully and said, "Brother Xici, don't look down on this Zhou Zifeng." Compared with Ye Xiqian, he is not even worthy of giving him a boost. ”
Ye Xinrou sneered and continued: "Although I don't live in King An's Mansion, I often see him. Prince An loves him. Li Suqing dotes on him, the lady in the palace spoils him, he seems to be just a concubine, but in the eyes of others, he will become the only concubine in King An's mansion sooner or later. It is said that such a person, even if he is raised, he has nothing to say, but he is still very shrewd. Pretending to be innocent and stupid outside, and not paying for his life behind his back, it is really a fight with my second brother. If you slack off on him, you will definitely not even know how to die. Ye Xinrou deliberately increased the volume of the words 'the only son-in-law'. Speaking of which, even the stupid and cute words that Fang Xiaoyu taught her were also used by her.
Seeing Ye Xici's cold expression, Ye Xinrou continued: "But this week's wind is different, this is stupid." In the past, he was spoiled too much by Mei Suxi, and he developed a selfish and selfish attitude. In terms of viciousness, maybe few people can compare to him, at least he can even kill his own mother, even if this viciousness is placed on Ye Xiqian's body, then Ye Xiqian may not dare to poison Li Suqing to death. It's a pity that although he has a ruthless heart and a pair of spicy hands, he doesn't have a smart brain. What's more, the merchant's son is always the merchant's son, and the pattern and the grand view are all gone, it seems that he will be able to get what he wants right away, and he is probably also secretly happy that he will soon become the real young master of the Zhenyuan General's Mansion. But in the end, he is just an insignificant pawn in Xiaoyu's hand. If it weren't for the use of keeping it, he would have gone to accompany her mother to walk Huangquan Road and pass the ghost gate. ”
Ye Xinrou has always been disdainful of Zhou Zifeng. There is no vision, only the immediate interests are concerned. And he's still a grumpy person.
In her opinion, if Zhou Zifeng was smart enough, he shouldn't have laughed at the other party and insulted Fang Haozhi in the first place. The wicked man has Mei Suzhi to do, he can pretend to be a good person, deceive Fang Xiaoyu and Fang Haozhi's favor with a hypocritical face, and even give some help at the appropriate time, so that even if Mei Suxi's assassination of Fang Xiaoyu and Fang Haozhi is exposed, he can also excuse himself as a good person who often helps Fang Xiaoyu and Fang Haozhi. Even, after gaining the trust of Fang Xiaoyu and Fang Haozhi. It's even much easier to do it to the two of them. Think about making up for it when the other party is completely defenseless or even trusts you, isn't the effect much better than the righteous harm but failure to be guarded against?
You see, that's what Ye Xiqian did.
The dirty things in King An's mansion are as clear as mirrors in my heart. But what is not clear will be frightened by Ye Xiqian's hypocrisy.
In the house, Ye Xiqian is a real little overlord, although he is a concubine, he has a more decent life than his son-in-law. But externally, he is a white lotus who cares about his brother and is extremely helpless about the dirty things at home.
He wanted to stop it. But there was no way for him to disobey his parents. You see, he's so innocent. Although outsiders know that it is acting, so what? In the eyes of the uninformed, he is just a poor man who is caught in the middle and is not a human being.
Sometimes the truth doesn't need to be known. As long as you can win the sympathy of the foolish people.
But the fact is that King An loves this concubine to the core. In his heart, Ye Xiqi is the son of evil, and only Ye Xiqian is the young master of the Anwang Mansion.
Because Wang Ye An and Li Suqing were a pair who were privately determined for life, the two even had an adulteration in private, but they didn't say it on the surface.
And it was at that time that most of the emperor's body had collapsed. Many things are beyond our control. I wanted to see all my sons marry wives and have happy children, so I pointed out that all the princes who were not married at that time were married.
Prince An was naturally married to Princess An.
The door is right, and it should be a happy marriage. It's a pity that among them, there is a Li Suqing in Prince An's heart who is involved in this relationship, so that Princess An, who was originally his wife, has become a third party who destroys people's marriages.
As for the matter of King An and Li Suqing, Princess An did not know at all. She is like a little woman looking forward to a happy life, although she had no feelings for King An at first, it was only because of the emperor's marriage that she put on a wedding dress and married into King An's mansion. But in her heart, since a woman is married, she should treat this husband who will spend her life with you wholeheartedly.
Princess An has the restraint and sensibility of a little woman, but she is also a person with strong self-esteem. If you knew from the beginning, King An had someone in his heart. Even if she tried to disobey the holy decree, she would never be the intervener who broke up the lover of the person.
But she didn't know. She didn't know anything about King An and Li Suqing, and she didn't even know that a woman named Li Suqing would appear out of thin air in her life.
If King An really has the responsibility of a man, he can resist the will to fight for his love with Li Suqing, the emperor is an enlightened person, in addition to the prince's affairs, he has to check everywhere, for other sons and daughters. Most of them are treated as free-range. Especially for emotional issues, as long as they are not unscrupulous, it doesn't matter if they have a lower status, anyway, they don't expect these people to be the queens of the world, and if they live a life, they still really like it. If the status is too low, it is not impossible to marry a concubine who is the right person and take the person you like as a concubine.
At that time, the emperor was on the verge of death, if Prince An went to talk to the emperor and spread out the cards, even if Li Suqing could not become a concubine, it would not be difficult to accept a side concubine.
But King An was cowardly and didn't dare to anger the emperor, but she really wanted to be with Li Suqing, so this unsatisfactory anger was all sprinkled on the unwitting princess An.
Prince An thought that it was Princess An who ruined the good things between him and Li Suqing, and thought that Princess An had robbed Li Suqing of all the positions that should have been Li Suqing. He unreasonably attributed a mistake to Princess An's head. On the night of marriage, he drank too much wine, and went to the cave room full of anger to ravage Princess An all night.
Ye Xinrou just looks down on people like Prince An. If he didn't dare to disobey the holy decree and really didn't want to be sorry for Li Suqing, even if he had been snubbing Princess An and not having sex with her, she wouldn't despise him as much as she did now.
Obviously, he was cowardly and didn't dare to resist the order, obviously he didn't refuse this family business, and obviously concealed the causes and consequences of Princess An, but shamelessly imposed all his own stupidity and badness on Princess An.
Princess An dragged her scarred body, and she could barely get out of bed the next day, but she still had to endure the pain in her body, and was dragged into the palace by King An, and hypocritically performed love in front of the emperor.
After returning to the palace, King An intensified his efforts, and kept torturing Princess An in different ways, so that Princess An was physically and mentally exhausted in the end, and she could barely hold on.
After the death of the emperor, the prince kept filial piety for three years, during this period, there were few festive activities among the people, and it seemed that everyone was mourning for the emperor in a silent way.
And as soon as three years passed, King An immediately brought a woman back to the house, this woman was already pregnant when she entered the house, and at that time, Princess An was about to give birth with a big belly.
Originally, a man's three wives and four concubines were nothing, even if King An wanted to take a concubine, it would be a matter of course. After all, he is a prince, and it is normal to have a few concubines. But Princess An was so angry that she almost lost her life.
It's not that Princess An is jealous, it's just that when Princess An was about to give birth, Li Suqing ostensibly went to ask Princess An for peace, but in fact, she added fuel and vinegar to all the things that were taken away, with the viciousness of being robbed of a qiē and the superiority of King An's heart still tied to her.
Princess An is a woman with strong self-esteem, although she has been tortured by Prince An repeatedly, although she is almost physically and mentally exhausted, she still works hard to live optimistically every day, just for the little life that is about to be born in her belly. However, it was Li Suqing's confession that made her suffer an almost desperate blow, and she almost lost her mother and son on the same day.
But maybe she couldn't even look at it, Princess An finally survived strongly, and gave birth to Ye Xi nearly a month ahead of schedule.
Since then, Princess Ann has never been cowardly. No matter how provocative Li Suqing is, he doesn't want to shake Princess An's status. Even if King An always stood by Li Suqing's side, Princess An did not back down at all.
She knows her identity very well, she is the rightful Concubine An who has entered the royal family tree, and she is the royal daughter-in-law. Since she is a concubine, she should show the momentum of a concubine, how can she be ridden to her head to and pee by a side concubine?
She no longer cares about King An's favor, and now that she has a son, that's what she relies on. She must not show weakness, and she must not let her son experience the taste of being bullied by a concubine and concubine!
However, one can never underestimate the shamelessness of the wicked. Li Suqing saw that Princess An was so strong, and knew that her identity could not be curry favor in front of the main concubine, so she gave up her childish behavior of looking for a child, but she didn't know where to get a poison and poisoned Princess An.
"Brother Xici, where did that poison come from or have no clue?" Ye Xinrou couldn't help but feel sorry for Ye Xici. Compared to him, what he experienced seemed to be a little trivial.
Ye Xici shook his head and sighed: "That poison is a chronic poison, after taking it, people will gradually become sleepy, and then begin to be delirious. Slowly, it will take on a state of madness, sometimes sober, looking the same as usual, but sometimes it is crazy, and even the closest people can't recognize it. Since then, I have been searching for the whereabouts of this poison, but I have no clue where it came from, by whom, and how Li Suqing was able to obtain it. Ye Xici pinched his nails into his palms in pain.
I watched my mother go crazy day by day, and occasionally returned to normal, but life was worse than death.
He hated the vicious. It's not just Li Suqing, what he hates even more is the nominally his father's An Wang Ye Shilin!
Sooner or later, one day, he wants them to taste the same pain as his mother, and only in this way can he feel that he has avenged his mother!
And when Ye Xinrou and Ye Xici were talking about this, Fang Xiaoyu happened to come to the door with dumplings around her apron and heard the conversation between them.
But at the same time, she was shocked in her heart. Because where the medicine came from, she knew. (To be continued.) )
