078 Uninvited guests
That night, Mrs. Su was gone.
A room full of people bowed their heads and wept bitterly in front of the old lady's bed.
The window opened, and the scent of sandalwood in the room was dispersed, and the cold of late autumn invaded in.
Jiang Yirou knelt behind Su Peiran, clenching her fists. Her palms were pierced by her fingernails, dripping with beads of blood, blending with sweat and making her wet.
Thinking of the old lady's frantic words just now, her heart twitched.
As soon as the old lady spoke, she was pressed back to the bed by the grandmother who was serving on the side. It is said that the old lady will only talk nonsense when she is dying, is this really the case?
If the old lady's words are true, the fire in the Jiang family eight years ago was not an accident, but there was another hidden story, so who was the murderer? The old lady is talking about "them", could it be that there is more than one murderer?
The more Jiang Yirou thought about it, the more frightened she became, and her heart fluctuated for a while, and she couldn't help herself.
The sky was full of firelight and flames, and the ghostly hot tongue of fire burned every qiΔ to ashes. Her father and mother were burned alive. If it weren't an accident, what kind of person would do such a poisonous thing to the Jiang family?
Her eyes were red, her body was stiff and she knelt stiffly, her right shoulder stabbing but she didn't notice it.
Su Bai, who was kneeling on his side, suddenly felt a chill on his back, felt a murderous aura, and immediately shook his body.
He suddenly raised his head and glanced at everyone, only to see a group of family members crying with their heads down, and their eyes were fixed.
The crying sounded intermittently all night, and early the next morning, Su Mansion was pouring vegetarian inside and outside. Mrs. Su's illness is not a day or two, and she is over seventy years old, and the Su family has already prepared filial piety clothes for the upper and lower people.
When Jiang Yirou followed Su Peiran to Mingde Hall again, the old lady had already changed her shroud. The outside of the shroud is flat gold embroidery, wearing a phoenix crown, wearing a lotus pendant, a wishful hairpin, very luxurious.
Mrs. Su lay there peacefully, her eyes closed, her face peaceful, and she seemed to walk very calmly.
If she hadn't heard the old lady's words yesterday, maybe she would have really believed that her grandmother had left as she was now......
She stood there in a daze and looked at the old lady's face, until Mama Qin next to her frowned and scolded, and then she came back to her senses and retracted her gaze. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Su Miaoran sitting on the edge of the small window with one hand on the case, staring at this side, his eyes suspicious and inquiring.
Jiang Yirou's heart sank, she lowered her eyes silently, moved silently, and retreated from Su Peiran's side to behind her.
As soon as the news of Mrs. Su's death came out, people from the palace immediately came to offer condolences. The people in that palace probably expressed the regret and sorrow that Concubine Su Guifei was unwell and could not come in person, and stayed until the evening of the same day, and talked with Su Yuntang and Su Jintang for a long time before leaving.
Su Xinran, who was kneeling on the ground, pouted and sneered, and said in a low voice: "It's different to be a concubine, if you can't think of it, you won't come, just find someone to prevaricate, big sister, this is really a big shelf." β
Su Miaoran laughed secretly when she heard this, and said in her heart: This is not false, Su Qingran is a concubine, and she is the favorite of His Majesty today, if she wants to go out of the palace and go back to the house to dress up in linen and filial piety for the old lady's funeral, how can Her Majesty not allow it? Saying that he is sick is just an excuse.
Looking back now, Su Qingran didn't care about the old lady's mind back then, and even worse than her Su Miaoran, how could she take the old lady's funeral to heart?
Su Miaoran's eyes were cold, and she raised her chin arrogantly.
What Su Guifei, it sounds majestic, to put it bluntly, she is just a concubine of the heavenly family!
She Su Miaoran either doesn't marry, if she wants to marry, she must marry as a wife!
She has long had enough of being a concubine and being looked down upon and rubbed by others, and wait, there will always be a **** who will rise to prominence and enjoy all the glory and favor, and trample Su Qingran under her feet!
The people of the palace had just left, and immediately someone came to visit.
At present, when they have not yet arrived at the Su family for a banquet, most of these uninvited guests are distinguished guests who cannot be refused. Su Yuntang and Su Jintang didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took all the family members to greet them.
When they saw someone coming, everyone was stunned.
The man was dressed in a fine ice blue silk robe, with a dark pattern on it, dressed luxuriously, his posture was slender, his eyes were like two rippling spring water, and his demeanor was outstanding, but he was too uninhibited, and he was actually the current Royal Highness of the Third Prince - Duan Wang Zhaoxu.
Su Yuntang and Su Jintang glanced at each other, secretly confused.
I thought it was the crown prince's concubine Su Yueran, but I never expected it to be the third prince, what did he do?
"Meet the Third Highnessβ" The Su family bowed their heads and bowed.
Zhao Xu waved his hand: "No need to be polite, this king came here this time to offer condolences to Mrs. Su, these etiquette rules, don't care about it now." β
Su Jintang hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness came to the door in person, it really tormented us." β
This is true, Mrs. Su died, no matter what, there was no need for Zhaoxu to come to mourn, he was a dignified son, and he came to the door in person, what is the intention, it is really unpredictable.
When Su Jintang thought about it, he couldn't help but secretly sweat.
The third prince came to the Su family in person this time, and it was definitely not really to mourn Mrs. Su. Could it be that his abnormal behavior was to give the Su family some hints? Or do you intend to use the Su family to provoke His Royal Highness the Prince?
Thinking of the assassination of the prince's mansion last time, Su Jintang felt more and more that the intention of the third prince was not simple.
The crown prince and the three princes, neither of them can afford to be provoked by a small Su family.
"I said that you don't have to be polite to this king, you can just be busy with yourself, just leave this king alone." Zhao Xu snapped the fan open, pretending to laugh easily.
Su Yuntang and Su Jintang could only hold their faces and laugh dryly, and said secretly: With such a bottle of Great God Town in front of him, how could he be absent......
Zhao Xu's gaze turned to the direction of the family members behind the two brothers, swept lightly, and fell on Jiang Yirou's body accurately.
The girl wore a light white dress, and her figure looked more slender and elegant.
She hung her head, revealing only a pointed chin, petal-like lips tightly pursed in one place. Zhao Xu looked at it for a long time, and the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't help but deepen - this little girl was reserved, he rarely came, and she didn't even look at him.
Su Miaoran raised her eyes slightly, and saw Zhao Xu's smiling appearance, her beautiful eyes flashed, she followed his gaze and looked over, and saw Su Peiran's master and servant, and her heart tightened.
Could it be that the third prince has taken a fancy to Su Peiran?
How does this work?
She bit her lip, her heart fluctuating.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not pleased with His Majesty, and the second prince Zhaolin is changeable and elusive, and the three princes Zhaoxu in front of him are the best candidates for a husband.
This is something she has long understood.
But how could such a good marriage be taken away by Su Peiran, a sick woman?
Thinking of this, Su Miaoran's teeth were forced, and he bit his lower lip so hard that blood oozed out.
As early as when she met Zhao Xu by chance and picked up his personal jade pendant, she wanted to get his blue eyes. For this reason, he did not hesitate to frame Su Peiran at the banquet of the prince's mansion, wanting him to be disgusted with Su Peiran, and eliminating the possibility of Su Peiran and him, and then deliberately put aside Xiuyun and appeared alone in front of him to have a coincidental scene, wanting to leave a good impression on him.
Su Miaoran looked at Zhao Xu's bright smiling face, and her heart suddenly hurt.
She knew that it would be Su Peiran, she had been like this since she was a child, she was clearly a concubine, but Su Peiran didn't have to do anything to get what she wanted so hard.
Why?
What the hell is she?
