Chapter 456: Unexpected
Xia Ruoxue sat in the hall, staring at a pot of "Eighteen Bachelors" camellia on the cabinet in the corner with mixed feelings, no one knew what she was thinking.
According to her heart, she is absolutely unwilling to face the three Shu Yao brothers and sisters again, especially in the capital. As Liu's mother said, no matter how unscrupulous she is, she will also take care of a pair of children, which is her most important relatives in this world. What's more, the three of Shu Yao are now fighting higher and higher, and it is more and more difficult for her to calculate.
After giving up on her mother's brother-in-law, Xia Ruoxue lost her previous "fighting spirit", and she didn't want to provoke the Lianghou Mansion anymore, so she only focused on thinking about making more money. At that time, Handkerchief made an old friend who introduced her to a northeastern merchant surnamed Huang and started a seafood business.
She thought that she just had to work hard to earn more money and then secretly help her children. Money can make ghosts grind, and sometimes money can contribute to many things, such as the family affair with Qian Baye of Yong'an Mansion.
The businessman surnamed Huang seemed to be very well-connected in Beijing, and knew that she was worried about Sima Yan's family affairs, so he quickly sent people information about several candidates who were likely to accept Sima Wei and had quite good conditions, including Qian Baye.
After the family affair had an eyebrow, Xia Ruoxue was glad that she had found a good marriage for Sima Wei, but she didn't think that because of the dispute between the interests of the third and fifth rooms of the Qian family, a good thing was finally beaten, and even made Sima Wei's family affair more difficult. Now, if nothing else, Sima Wei is estimated to be able to marry low, or go to fill the house for others, and just like that, people will have to pick and choose.
During that time, Xia Ruoxue was about to go crazy with regret, repeatedly pricking her arms and thighs with needles, she hated herself for always being thoughtful and taking precautions. Why didn't you think that there would be a demon moth on the side of Qian Baye's mother-in-law? She should have thought of it. If she had secretly taken care of that side earlier. ……
For her now, as long as she can solve it with silver. As long as the family affairs are officially decided, or even get married as soon as possible, she is not afraid that those people will make trouble again, and she Xia Ruoxue also has the means.
Unfortunately, she woke up too late.
Xia Ruoxue, who suffered a heavy blow, has become more and more silent this year, and even began to wonder if there is really retribution.
Ten days ago, a businessman surnamed Huang came to the door again. asked her to help Xia Linyu and they "forced" Shu Yao back to Yulin, and frankly admitted that Xia Linyu's family's means were not enough. also promised that after the matter was completed, he would help Sima Wei to connect a good family affair.
Xia Ruoxue suddenly woke up and asked who he was? What do you want to do? When did you get in touch with Xia Linyu? No wonder, she once overheard that Xia Linyu suddenly made a fortune at some point and started business.
Xia Ruoxue has always been a smart person, she has been the second lady of the Anguo Mansion for more than ten years, and she has followed the Duchess into the palace, and she has also seen and heard a lot of the world, and she reflected it instantly. I'm afraid that this businessman surnamed Huang is not just a simple businessman, so he is so deliberately close to her and Xia Linyu. Is it just to use them to deal with the Lianghou Mansion? If you have to let Shu Yao go to Yulin this time, you don't want to kidnap her as a hostage or kill her, right? If that's the case. She was sure that she and the two brothers' families must be scapegoats, and they would die ugly.
The businessman surnamed Huang obviously expected Xia Ruoxue to be so vigilant and questioned, Xia Ruoxue was not as stupid and easy to deceive as Xia Linyu's family, and casually picked up the teacup and smiled lightly: "Someone who is helpful to you!" Rest assured, you are a smart and valuable collaborator, and we will not harm you. As for Xia Linyu's family, they are unkind to you, aren't you also determined to be unjust to them? Why bother so much? ”
Seeing that Xia Ruoxue was silent, the businessman surnamed Huang continued to use both soft and hard, saying that in the past year of cooperation, they already have a lot of evidence in their hands to prove that Xia Ruoxue and them are in the same boat (although Xia Ruoxue herself doesn't know which boat she belongs to, whose boat she belongs to), and even Sima Xiang and Sima Yu can't escape.
In desperation, Xia Ruoxue asked Qing's mother to go to Prince Qi's mansion on her behalf yesterday to "beg" Shuyao. She knew very well that now that she had justifiably severed her relationship with the Xia Mansion, whether it was Jin Xida, Shujie or Shu Yao, who had been cunning since childhood, they would not give them any chance to stick to the Lianghou Mansion again. Therefore, it was useless to go to the Lianghou Mansion, and it happened that Prince Qi's Mansion held a hibiscus banquet, which helped her.
It's just that she didn't expect that Lord Min would let Qing's mother in and wait in the hall, but then she was kicked out by Lord Zhen, and she was solemnly warned not to make trouble at the gate of Prince Zaiqi's mansion.
What she didn't expect was that the county lord of Yan would take Sima Yan to the hibiscus banquet yesterday (the previous lord of Yan should have disliked Sima Yan for having the notoriety of "the daughter of a poisonous woman", and was afraid of being implicated, so he was never willing to take her). As a result, because she was pushed to the topic again, Sima Yu was grounded as soon as she returned home.
Xia Ruoxue knew that her heart was like a knife, and she returned to Beijing for Sima Yan's family affairs, but she never thought that she would be involved in Sima Wei again and again.
Xia Ruoxue has always kept an eyeliner in Sima Yan's yard, and for the sake of prudence, even Sima Wei doesn't know. Therefore, early this morning, Xia Ruoxue not only received the news that Sima Wei was grounded and punished for copying the female ring, but also was shocked to hear that her daughter Sima Yan was obsessed with Ning Shizi, and wanted to go to the Fuxing County Lord to be related in order to enter Prince Yong's mansion as a side room, so she was misunderstood by the Yan County Lord and colluded with her.
Hearing this unexpected message, Xia Ruoxue was stunned, and she was locked in the room alone for half an hour. What is Prince Yong's Mansion? The only hereditary prince's palace in the Great Zhou Dynasty at present. Even the side concubines are registered with the royal family. Although Sima Wei is the concubine of the Anguo Mansion, she is not from the prince's house, and she has such a notorious mother, how can Prince Yong's Mansion have such a side concubine? Who doesn't know that Prince Yong's Mansion has big rules?
And Xia Shuyao and the Lianghou Mansion would not agree, she used to calculate the three brothers and sisters of Shuyao like that, and it was impossible for them to accept Sima Yan. If it were her, even if she accepted it, she would think of it to death.
Xia Ruoxue is a vicious woman, but she is still a mother who loves her children very much, and now she is extremely guilty of Sima Wei......
If her death can be exchanged for Sima Wei's happy marriage and happiness, she will not hesitate to die.
"Alas-" Xia Ruoxue sighed, but unfortunately her life was not worth much, even if she died now, I was afraid that no one would shed tears for her, including her children.
When Xia Ruoxue saw Shu Yao, dressed in luxurious makeup, come in surrounded by five or six maids, she couldn't help but feel a little dizzy. This girl has had a strange noble temperament since she was a child, and now she is even more graceful and noble so that she doesn't dare to look at it directly.
Xia Ruoxue made a big salute to Shu Yao in a proper manner: "The women have seen the county lord of Fuxinggui, and the county lord Wanfu Jin'an. ”
Lan Jin behind Shu Yao secretly pouted: What tricks does this poisonous woman play? Or were you shocked by the county lord's deliberate costume?
Except for entering the palace, Shu Yao rarely dresses so formally. Today, she is preparing to use "momentum" to suppress people, so that Xia Ruoxue and the people of Xia Mansion can completely know each other, recognize the reality, and go as far as they want. Now the three siblings are not something they can afford.
"Get up, Xia Niangzi is here today, but is there something? Didn't you say your mother was seriously ill? Why don't you have to go back to Yulin to wait? Shu Yao's tone was sarcastic, and there was a majesty that could not be ignored.
Xia Ruoxue's heart couldn't help but shudder, and secretly smiled bitterly, Shu Yao knew her intentions, so she would be threatened to suppress her first? Fortunately, she has changed her mind, and she can't take any more risks and get involved with her again. She wasn't even afraid of death, what else was she afraid of? She died, and her children could not be affected.
In fact, after figuring it out, the businessman surnamed Huang couldn't threaten her anymore. People who hide in the shadows are most afraid of being exposed to the sun.
There was no burden in his heart, and he suddenly felt at ease, and the smile on Xia Ruoxue's face was much more real: "Back to Fuxing Guijun, the people are here, and there is indeed something important to tell." This time, a northeastern businessman surnamed Huang threatened the woman and the family of Xia Linyu, and took advantage of the serious illness of the mother's mother to force the county lord back to Yulin. Although the woman didn't know who he was, or what he was going to do to you, the princess, she could feel that this trip was extremely dangerous. The woman has one more mouth, since someone deliberately wants to endanger the county lord, presumably if one plan fails, there will inevitably be another plan, and the county lord is also asked to pay attention. ”
Shu Yao was stunned, Xia Ruoxue ...... this? Agitated? Cast a mist before somebody's eyes? Retreat? But it's not like it. Shu Yao trusted her instincts very much, she knew that at least Xia Ruoxue's attitude at this moment was sincere, her eyes were very clean and calm when she said those words, it should not be a lie.
Xia Ruoxue didn't care if Shuyao believed it or not, took out a few pieces of paper from her arms, and said to herself: "This is the contract I signed with the Northeast businessman Huang Ye to do business, and there are two letters, and the women don't know if it's useful, let's stay first." Huang Ye does have an authentic Northeast accent, he said that he came to the capital to do seafood business for a few years, but the people can feel that he seems to be very well-connected in the capital, and there are many people in the government. By the way, the woman met Boss Huang a year ago through Mrs. Zhang, the wife of the Chinese scholar Zhang. As for when Xia Linyu's family hooked up with them, and how much they knew about this matter, the women did not know. ”
Mother Liu glanced at Lan Jin, and Lan Jin stepped forward to take the papers.
Shu Yao's bright eyes stared at Xia Ruoxue tightly: "Purpose? What do you want? ”
Xia Ruoxue didn't expect Shu Yao to believe his words so easily, and thought that she would have to check it for two days, so she didn't plan to make any requests at first. When the time comes, leave a letter and let Qing's mother hand it over to Shu Yao.
But now, it seems, she can't help but say it. Xia Ruoxue came back and said in a trembling voice: "No matter what the woman has done, the woman is innocent." The women of the people will completely disown her, and all sins and grievances should be borne by the women alone. Looking at the county lord, for the sake of having half of the same blood relatives, if the princess offended the county lord, he also asked the county lord to let her go in large quantities. If it is a coincidence, you can still reach out to help, and the women will feel five guilty, and in the next life, they will be cattle and horses to repay the county lord. (To be continued......)
