237 Coming when called, and leaving as soon as it is called
237 Comes when it is called, and goes away when it is called
Thanks to this strange disguise, no one really recognized them along the way.
They were about to reach the boundary of Qinyang Mansion, and the two slowed down their travel. Along the way, Sun Mubai rode in the carriage, Ran Zhirou pretended to be the coachman, don't look at Ran Zhirou like this, she is very stable in driving. In view of Ran Zhirou's good skills, Sun Mubai's injuries along the way were also healed.
Now that they have arrived at the boundary of Qinyang Mansion, the two of them are not in a hurry to get ahead of them, so they first found an inn to stay in and inquire about the recent situation in the city.
Not to mention, there has indeed been a big incident in the city recently, just the Xia family, a prominent family in the city, his baby son actually hurt people, this person is still the son of General Pang Wei, and he has great power in the court. Now that Xia Chaoyang has been imprisoned in the prison of Qinyang Mansion, the Xia family is also very well-connected, but it has withered in the past two years.
Xia Guifei has completely fallen out of favor, last time Ran Zhirou's mother and stepfather An Wangye came to Xia's house and saw Xia Chaoyang and his current wife Hua Shanshan.
Ran Zhirou's mother wanted to make a fuss, but was stopped by Prince An. Don't want her family's Ranran, she wants to see how well the two of them are doing!
And after that, I don't know what Prince An said when he entered the palace, Xia Guifei completely fell out of favor. For half a month, I couldn't even see the emperor's face. Sometimes, Xia Guifei endured her frustration and asked the palace maid to take the ginseng soup to ask to see the emperor, and she was also directly invited out.
When she was favored before, she had never been treated like this. Xia Guifei was a little difficult to accept for a while, but the emperor became more and more indifferent to her. She didn't dare to be as petty as before.
Most of the women who make their little sex are spoiled by men, especially the women in this harem, revolving around a man. If you are favored, you will have a qiē, and if you fall out of favor, you will lose everything in an instant.
Xia Guifei seemed to have lost a qiē, and there was no room to turn over. In this palace, once a woman falls out of favor, countless women will come up and fill the emperor's surroundings, not to mention the emperor's thoughts. It was never in a woman.
The news of Xia Guifei's fall from grace spread to Qinyang Mansion, and this kind of thing spread ten or ten hundreds, and it was soon known. The Xia family has such a great reputation. His concubine daughter played a big role. There were rumors before that Xia Guifei's situation in the palace was not as good as before, and now there is definite news that she has completely fallen out of favor.
Ordinary people naturally dare not mess with the Xia family. But this Qinyang Mansion has a rich and powerful family. Xia Chaoyang is a standard gentleman, a few good brothers get together, and they can't stand the ridicule of fox friends and dog friends, so they fight. It doesn't matter if this shot hurts someone, the other party is still the son of General Pang Wei.
General Pang Wei only has one precious son, and the injury is not good, and the family heirloom is hurting. After that, the Pang family will be extinct. At this moment, how could General Pang Wei spare him? Plus this General Pompey is a notoriously short-tempered man. After this happened, he pulled out his knife and directly picked Xia Fu, and almost didn't cut Xia Chaoyang with a knife.
Xia Chaoyang was very frightened, he was usually arrogant and domineering, and he was messing with flowers and grass outside, which really caused a problem. In the end, it was Hua Shanshan who stood in front of him, Hua Shanshan was a very powerful and strong woman, and in the face of General Pang Wei's anger, she dared to meet him and look at him.
Under Hua Shanshan's sonorous questioning, General Pang Wei actually carried a knife and left the Xia Mansion. Although when he left, he was quite unconvinced, and he also cleaned up a few people from the Xia family, but Xia Chaoyang was fine after all.
Immediately afterwards, a team of officers and soldiers came, took Xia Chaoyang away, and went directly to the prison of Qinyang Prefecture and County. Although Sun Zhixian is not a faint official, he is a little afraid, this time it is the son of General Pang Wei who was injured, and the other party is the famous Xia family in Qinyang Mansion. It's not fun to offend either end.
At this moment, it was reported that Concubine Xia in the palace had completely fallen out of favor, and this Sun Zhixian had a little bit of a score, and he didn't need to be biased, just act impartially.
If the son of the Xia family hurts someone, then he must be punished according to the law. Sun Zhixian was very decisive this time, and directly took the official messenger to get people, although he still gave face to Master Xia, but he took people away without saying anything.
The Xia family is in an eventful time, Xia Chaoyang hurt people after all, so even if Hua Shanshan spits out lotus flowers, this dead can't really be said to be alive.
Mrs. Xia has been a powerful person all her life, and now she is completely dispossessed, so she almost screams to the heavens and the earth, crying and shouting for her son and baby.
Master Xia trusted a lot of people and found a lot of relationships, hoping to get his son out. But now it's hard to even see his son. Master Xia finally understood, as soon as these people heard that his daughter had fallen out of favor, they didn't give him face.
Friends in the business field, no one wants to offend people, especially if the other party is General Pang Wei, how many people dare to offend? There are a few people in these business fields who are more powerful than other generals, although it is said that wealth can be channeled, but now General Pang Wei is staring at this matter to death, and Sun Zhixian can't even cover up a little.
Master Xia ran around and didn't get anything, but he came back with a belly full of gas. When did he, Xia Zhengfeng, suffer such anger, in the entire Qinyang Mansion, who didn't sell his face?
But now, although he knew that those people were looking at the face of his concubine's daughter before, his Xia family was not an ordinary family, and those people treated him like this?
Master Xia and Mrs. Xia originally wanted to stand up, but the more they looked at it, the more wrong it became, and today it was rumored that General Pang went to the Yamen, and I don't know if there was favoritism, whether it was unfavorable to their son. Master Xia wanted to see his son several times, and he also used a lot of silver, but the cell head had been taken care of early in the morning, and the silver was useless!
Mrs. Xia thinks every day about what kind of suffering and what kind of crime her son will suffer in prison. This child didn't suffer much when he was a child, he grew up in the palm of his hand, how could he stand it in prison!
Master Xia has thought of all the methods, and when he returned home, the women in the family were always making trouble, and he couldn't live this day.
At the last minute, they only thought of one person. Now the one who can have the strength to confront General Pang Wei is Prince An. A word from Prince An. Maybe it can be settled, although General Pang Wei didn't agree to kill him, but Prince An promised to help. Then you can turn big things into small things.
When the time comes, there are still people who dare not take the Xia family in their eyes, and their Xia family will definitely be able to return to its former fame.
Mrs. Xia was originally reluctant to accept that woman and return to Xia's house, but when Yang'er received the letter of resignation, although she was angry that the woman didn't know what to do, and dared to disregard etiquette and do such things as a divorce, she was also sincerely relieved.
Because of their Xia family. finally got rid of this woman completely, and this home will definitely be quiet in the future. I just didn't expect this to happen suddenly. The one who can help them at this time is King An.
can let King An help, then you have to welcome Ran Zhirou back first. In the past, when other girls liked Xia Chaoyang, they were willing to help with any favor. Now that the two of them are separated, are they still willing to help their son?
Mrs. Xia thinks. Ran Zhirou is still rare for their son. The reason why she is so determined to part with her son is because of Shan'er's relationship. As long as they treat her a little better, let Yang'er give her the status of a wife, and coax her well, then Ran Zhirou will come back.
When Master Xia heard Mrs. Xia say this, he also felt that it made sense. This daughter-in-law liked them so much before, how much vinegar she ate for Yang'er, and how much she played tricks on them. The daughter-in-law is angry. As long as they lowered their posture a little, they snubbed Shan'er's child for a while. The daughter-in-law's heart is balanced. When the time comes, I won't help them rescue Yang'er, and she will be obedient to whatever she is told.
Mrs. Xia is very confident in this, Ran Zhirou has two weaknesses, one is soft-hearted and coaxing, and the other is their son.
They have caught Ran Zhirou's weakness, thinking that as long as they are like before, they can make Ran Zhirou obediently listen to them and do anything for them. As everyone knows, the current Ran Zhirou is no longer Ran Zhirou. It's ridiculous that she changed in the last few months of the Xia family, those people didn't pay attention to it at all, and they even naively thought that Ran Zhirou was still the stupid woman who couldn't live without their son.
But also, why did these people take Ran Zhirou to heart? What was she thinking in her heart, what had changed, and how could these people really take it to heart? From beginning to end, all they cared about was themselves, only their handsome son. The so-called daughter-in-law, in their hearts, is not even as good as a stranger. often stay together, but they have resentment, like enemies. There is no such a big grudge against strangers.
After Ran Zhirou heard about this in the city, she guessed what the Xia family was thinking. She said for what, she was anxious to find her back, apart from their precious son, what else could make Master Xia and Mrs. Xia pretend to release an olive branch to her?
Thinking of the hypocritical tone on the letter, Ran Zhirou wanted to laugh, this Xia family is really interesting, she Ran Zhirou is a dog that comes and goes when called, and their son is the baby bump, how they treat her will not feel at all, and they will push her to the forefront as soon as they have something. She Ran Zhirou owes them a lot, why would she let them be so naïve?
"Don't be angry, I'll feel distressed if I'm angry." Sun Mubai appeared behind her, holding her shoulders, and stretched his head in front of her.
"Sun Mubai, I really think I was stupid in the past now."
"It's not as stupid as it used to be, how can you be so smart now and live to understand?"
"......" Ran Zhirou was really stunned for a moment, "What are you talking about?" ”
"I actually want to thank Xia Chaoyang."
Sun Mubai knew that Ran Zhirou didn't understand, so he smiled and hugged her. "If Xia Chaoyang hadn't failed you like this, how would you leave him, and how could I have a chance to be with you again?"
Ran Zhirou frowned.
Sun Mubai stretched out his finger in time to touch her eyebrows. Don't frown, he can't see her frowning. He hoped that Ran Zhirou would be happy beside him, and would not let the sorrow slap her face again.
"I know this kind of thinking is very selfish, but I sincerely thank Xia Chaoyang for not knowing how to cherish you, because God has mercy on me and gave me a chance to cherish you."
"How do you know you have a chance, and I haven't promised you yet?" Ran Zhirou was unhappy, why was this man so bad, and he wanted Xia Chaoyang to abandon her. However, before she saw him again in the yamen of the Criminal Department, the contradiction between her and Xia Chaoyang was irreconcilable.
"Because your expression has already told me, you will promise me."
"You know again?" Can this man be less confident in himself one day?
"I just know, don't deny it, self-righteous men are terrible, but don't worry, I'm not Xia Chaoyang." Never do anything to hurt Ran Zhirou.
Ran Zhirou was silent, and when she mentioned Xia Chaoyang, it was her eternal pain. Sun Mubai knew that Ran Zhirou had an unbearable past, but she never knew how many things she had carried in that past. If it was just because of a woman's jealousy, Ran Zhirou wouldn't have reached this point.
"Didn't you always want to know, why do I hate Xia Chaoyang so much?" Ran Zhirou didn't know what to think, but today, she had decided to tell Sun Mubai all about this qiē. Whether he believed it or not, she wanted to sue him.
As for why, Ran Zhirou herself doesn't know. There are some things that have been in my heart for a long time, and I really want to pour them out and forget about them. Maybe Ran Zhirou has also felt it these days, and she has slowly let go of the hatred in her heart.
Nam Jaechen has lost his position as prime minister, and his own troubles are innumerable. Gao Jianling had already paid the price and died in the forbidden land. The only one who owes her is Xia Chaoyang. But Xia Chaoyang, that idiot, even if she doesn't do anything, she is already at peace, what else does she need to do, is she entangled with the person she never wants to see again?
However, seeing the letter in front of him and thinking of the Xia family, the fire in Ran Zhirou's heart was hooked up by rubbing.
If she doesn't clean up that family, she won't be Ran Zhirou!
When they used her as a dog, it wasn't just a matter of ignoring her, she had already thought that the Xia family would not be blocked, but since they found her first, she was not welcome. If she doesn't make a mess of the Xia family, she won't be Ran Zhirou!
Seeing the expression on Ran Zhirou's face, Sun Mubai knew that the Xia family was miserable this time. However, he didn't care about the Xia family, those people made Ran Ran suffer so many grievances, and they should pay the price. He was more concerned about what Ran Ran was about to say to him, and he had a feeling that these things must be important.
This may also be the reason why Ran Ran has been unable to let go, Nan Zaichen, Gao Jianling, and Bian Xiaoqian who appeared in Tianyang Mansion, these people must all be stored in Ran Zhirou's story.
