Chapter 21: The Good Wife of the Lower Hall Wants to Turn Over (1)
As a green light appeared in front of him, Qi Yan returned to the big tree again. Qi Yan saw at a glance that there was one more flower blooming on the tree, pink and tender, and it was very beautiful.
"Welcome back, the mission is well accomplished, as a reward, I invite you to tea!" With a smile on the scholar's face, it made people feel brighter, he said, stretched out his hand, and a cyan porcelain cup appeared on the table, he reached out and picked up the teapot next to the tea, and poured a cup of tea into the porcelain cup.
Qi Yanzheng felt a little tired after just experiencing a lifetime, so she drank the tea in one gulp, which was really a lot easier, which made her look forward to the next task.
When Qi Yan entered the mission, there was no one else around, and the surrounding environment should be in the bedroom, and she was now lying on the bed resting, so she simply closed her eyes and accepted the plot.
This time Qi Yan came to ancient times, this is an empty dynasty, called the Tiansheng Dynasty, the emperor of the Tiansheng Dynasty has just passed away, the new emperor finally ascended the throne after a fierce brotherly dispute, the first thing the new emperor took the throne was naturally to dispose of a large number of officials who supported his younger brother who failed to seize the heir, including their close relatives and distant relatives Seven aunts and eight aunts, the plot is strict zhòng directly involved in the execution of the battle for succession, the plot is not strict zhòng but there is joint responsibility is also sent far away.
Among the people assigned was an official named Yao Zhong, who did not support the crown prince who had now ascended the throne as emperor, nor the second prince, who was very prestigious in the army, but his teacher was the chief assistant of the dynasty, and he was a person from the second prince's side. Yao Zhong is only a prefect, and the place where he is appointed is not in the capital from the capital, he should have avoided that turmoil, but he didn't expect that a soldier committed something in the place under Yao Zhong's jurisdiction, and he should have been arrested and beheaded, but because this soldier was helping Zai Fu do things, Zai Fu asked Yao Zhong to let him go. Later, after the new emperor ascended the throne, this matter was revealed, and Yao Zhong was sent to a wild land, leaving only a family of women and children to rely on.
Yao Ruolan is Yao Zhong's only daughter, Yao Zhong was only eleven years old when she was assigned, her biological mother died early, and her stepmother returned to her parents' house as early as when Yao Zhong had an accident, and they broke off the relationship.
Yao Ruolan has lived in the backyard since she was a child, and she has no mother to protect her, so she has a lot more eyes than ordinary little girls, she knows that if she doesn't work hard, she will be sold by her master sooner or later, so she learns everything very hard. is not only proficient in singing and dancing, but also good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, because of this, many dignitaries want to buy her home as a concubine. But every time Yao Ruolan just smiled and shook her head to refuse, others thought she wanted to be a wife and laughed at her for her delusional, only she knew that as long as she wanted things in this world, there was nothing she couldn't get.
So, Yao Ruolan polished her eyes and looked at the guests coming and going, playing with them on the spot, greeting each other with a smile, wanting to find a lover from them, even if she was a concubine, this was just the first step.
Finally, when Yao Ruolan was sixteen years old, the Heavenly Sage Dynasty ushered in the triennial imperial examination, and finally a young man surnamed Jun became the champion. When Zhuang Yuanlang rode by on a tall horse, everyone was surprised by his handsome appearance and noble temperament, and even a woman chased him for several miles to express her love, and Yao Ruolan in the crowd who covered her face with a fan couldn't help but be moved, but she forced herself to look away and fixed her gaze on the person next to Zhuang Yuanlang, who was Xu Yitang, the flower of Jinke.
Soon at the celebration banquet, Yao Ruolan sang in person, and her eyes captured Tanhualang's heart, and after talking to each other, Xu Yitang recognized her as his first love, the prefect's family who used to live near his house. Yao Ruolan refused to admit it at first, and then she cried and told her about the grievances she had suffered over the years, which made Xu Yitang feel more and more sorry for her, and then married Yao Ruolan as a concubine despite her family's obstruction.
Yao Ruolan naturally wants more than these, she took every step of the way, surrounded the people of the Xu family, and then suppressed Xu Yitang's wife, designed to kill her children, and let Xu Yitang abandon her and drive her out of the house, and then, Xu Yitang rose step by step, and his power became bigger and bigger, in order to make Yao Ruolan his wife, he pressed Yao Zhong's charges on others, and let Yao Zhongguan reinstate, since then, Yao Ruolan has really lived a comfortable life without calculation.
But Yao Ruolan's happiness is based on the pain of one person, this person is Xu Yitang's wife, Wen Qiyan.
Wen Qiyan was born in a scholarly family, the Wen family has been a scholar for several generations, Wen Qiyan's grandfather was a university Confucian of the Tiansheng Dynasty during his lifetime, and his father Wen Xueli was not in the office, but he was extremely talented, so he was already full of peach and plum all over the world at a young age. Wen Qiyan has a gentle temperament, and has been educated to learn from Shu Dali since he was a child, although he is quite talented, but because at this time the world thinks that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, so Wen Qiyan never shows it in front of people. At that time, Xu Yitang was just a student of Wen Xueli, but because he studied seriously, he was treated differently by Wen Xueli, and married his daughter to him.
In the first three years of marrying into the Xu family, the husband and wife were quite harmonious, although they were troubled by Xu's mother many times because of their childlessness, but they were also resolved by Wen Qiyan, Wen Qiyan still honored his mother-in-law, took care of her husband, and managed the affairs of the family until Xu Yitang participated in the imperial examination and became a tanhua, and Wen Qiyan also gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses that year, and the Xu family can be described as three joys. It was not long before Xu Yitang welcomed Yao Ruolan into Xu's mansion, under the pretext that Wen Qiyan needed to take care of her body and spoil Yao Ruolan alone, although Xu's mother minded Yao Ruolan's background, she didn't interfere too much when she felt sorry for her son. Wen Qiyan has not resisted because of the education he has received since he was a child, but he just does his own thing in a down-to-earth manner and takes care of his children. Yao Ruolan is provocative, it doesn't matter. Yao Ruolan wants to be in charge, it doesn't matter. Yao Ruolan wants to have a baby, and she doesn't care. In Wen Qiyan's heart, a wife is a wife, a concubine is a concubine, and the love for the concubine cannot go beyond the love of the young man.
But she was wrong, when her son was ruthlessly killed by Yao Ruolan, she went to Xu Yitang to deal with Yao Ruolan's rejection. Although she has a gentle temperament, she is not stupid, she found evidence through clues, and brought the evidence and witnesses to Xu Yitang, so that Yao Ruolan had nothing to say, but Xu Yitang just impatiently asked her to get out. She thought about suing the official and thinking about finding her father, but before she could send a letter to her father, she was insulted by a man in black who broke into her room, not only that, but she also happened to be caught and raped in bed by the Xu family and Xu Yitang's friends, she was kicked out of the Xu family and became a notorious abandoned woman.
The Wen family didn't believe that their daughter would be such a person, so they took her back, but it caused the literati students to spurn the Wen family, and Yao Ruolan added fuel to the fire, and the Wen family's reputation was ruined. At this time, Xu Yitang was promoted by Yao Ruolan and hugged the thigh of a senior official in the court, and later Xu Yitang helped the Yao family overturn the case, the soldier became an innocent person, but the real perpetrator became Wen Xueli who happened to pass by, Wen Xueli was weak to defend himself, and was scolded by the former student to death, Wen's mother also hanged herself with a rope to follow her husband, and the Wen family has been completely defeated since then.
Wen Qiyan lived like a rat crossing the street, hiding everywhere, living by sewing clothes for others, and secretly living only because she was worried about her daughter, but she saw that her daughter was bullied by Yao Ruolan's daughter to the point that she was not even as good as a subordinate, and Yao Ruolan's daughter was as noble as a princess, she wanted to take her daughter away secretly, but was caught by Xu Yitang and others. She endured Yao Ruolan's humiliation, just to die with her, but she didn't expect that there was always a person with strong martial arts guarding her by her side, and when that person caught Wen Qiyan, Wen Qiyan saw the scar on his wrist, and knew that he was the one who insulted her, it turned out to be Yao Ruolan's conspiracy! Yao Ruolan admitted it with a smile, and then asked her to beat her to death, when she died, only her daughter was crying, but she could only watch, and she couldn't even comfort her. So she hates, hates Xu Yitang, hates Yao Ruolan, hates the man in black who ruined her innocence! She also regretted that she had burdened the Wen family, a pair of children, and ruined her life!
So she is willing to exchange her soul, she only hopes that her parents are well, and she will not ruin her reputation and affect the Wen family, and protect a pair of children to grow up, she doesn't want to be a gentle and kind woman like in her previous life, she doesn't want to tolerate everywhere anymore, and she doesn't want to be bound by secular dogma anymore. As for the people of the Xu family, she naturally didn't want them to live so well, wicked people like them should be punished, and they should not die well!
