Chapter 165: A Thunderbolt from the Clear
The night is as cold as water, and the moon is as cold as frost.
Mrs. Jin was lying on the bed, looking at the gently floating veil, her heart was mixed, the jade clan that suddenly appeared, and a jade unicorn hidden in the mansion, as well as the book of urgency...... Everything disrupted Mrs. Jin's originally peaceful life in an instant, she couldn't accept it, but she seemed to be powerless, but she silently felt that behind this, there seemed to be an invisible hand manipulating.
This unforeseen sense of fear, like a mountain, weighed heavily on Madame Kim's body, making her unable to move.
At this moment, a cool breeze blew and blew the veil, and then the sound of soft footsteps was heard.
Mrs. Jin didn't open her eyes, thinking that it should be Aunt Gu or some maid who came in to serve.
The man walked to her bedside, stopped, gently lifted the veil, tucked the quilt for her, and then a faint fragrance came into her nostrils.
This kind of fragrance is not something that can be used by subordinates.
Mrs. Jin was suspicious when she heard a choked voice and called, "Auntie." ”
Qianqian? What is she doing at such a late hour? Mrs. Jin was slightly startled, but she continued to close her eyes quietly.
Liu Qianqian knelt beside the bed, reached out and gently brushed the sweat-soaked hair on Mrs. Jin's forehead, and called her tentatively, seeing that she didn't react, she couldn't help but whimper.
She sobbed for a while, and then as if she had mustered up enough courage, she cried softly: "Auntie, so many things have happened in Jinfu these days, I am very scared. These things were all done by my brother, and Agui was my brother's subordinate. It was he who sent Agui to attack the mother of the jade unicorn, and then let Agui blame your aunt for you......"
Hearing this, Mrs. Kim's heart sank. The hand under the quilt couldn't help but clench together.
"There is also poisoning the sweet soup, which was also sent by my brother, and then misled the jade unicorn, so that she thought that it was sent by your aunt...... The person who forced you to commit suicide was not the Jade Qilin, but the elder brother...... He said that he would let the Jin Mansion be in turmoil before he could get back what belonged to him......"
What belongs to him? Mrs. Kim's heart was extremely cold. But he felt so funny, this Golden Mansion, there is something that belongs to him!
"Auntie. You raised my brother and me since childhood, you are our closest people, and you are as kind to us as a mountain, I know. My brother did it. I'm sorry for you, I also tried to persuade my brother, but he wouldn't listen to me. Auntie, what should I do? Wake up quickly, I'm really scared. Auntie, you must not have anything to do, and the Jin Mansion must not have anything to do. ”
Mrs. Jin only felt that her stomach was overturned, and she was extremely angry. It made her feel like she wanted to vomit, but. Liu Qianqian was by her side, and she endured the discomfort, wanting to hear what she would say next.
However, after Liu Qianqian finished speaking, she didn't speak again for a long time, but the sobbing slowly eased and quieted down.
After a long time, she sighed and said, "If you wake up, I don't know if I have the courage to say these words to you, after all, he is my own brother." For our departed father's sake, forgive him. After that, Liu Qianqian seemed to kowtow beside her bed before leaving.
It wasn't until she confirmed that Liu Qianqian had really left that Mrs. Jin slowly opened her eyes, only to feel a chill coming from the bottom of her heart, and couldn't help retching.
Aunt Gu, who was keeping vigil outside the house, heard the movement and hurriedly rushed in, and saw her lying on the bedside vomiting, so she hurriedly brought a basin over, but she didn't vomit anything.
Aunt Gu patted Mrs. Jin on the back and comforted her for a while, then Mrs. Jin calmed down, sat for a while, and said slowly: "It's quiet at night, I'm going to the ancestral hall to talk to the master." ”
Aunt Gu was stunned and persuaded: "Madam, your body is still very weak, you should rest more." It's windy at night, so if you have anything to do, let's do it tomorrow. ”
Madame Kim shook her head, though weak, but extremely resolute.
The Jinfu ancestral hall under the ink color looked a little gloomy, and Mrs. Jin dragged her body that had not yet healed and walked into the ancestral hall alone, leaving Aunt Gu to wait outside the door.
She walked to the tablet tablet, gently picked up the most familiar name, carefully wiped the dust off it, and a tear fell on the tablet, revealing a round water stain.
She slowly put down the tablet, knelt down in front of the tablet, forcibly endured it for a long time, and suddenly seemed to collapse, venting all the resentment and anger accumulated in her chest, she howled loudly, completely missing the image of the strong Mrs. Jin in the past.
She is the wife of her husband who is dignified and upright, and from the first day she entered the gate of the Golden Mansion, she has been fulfilling her duties as a wife, and she has never dared to slack off for more than 20 years.
She knew that her husband didn't love her when he was alive, and only favored the concubine Wang. However, she kept in mind the "seven outs" of women, and did not dare to be jealous or compete for favor.
As his wife, she knew that it was her responsibility to give birth to her husband's son-in-law, continue the incense of the Jin family, and glorify the lintel of the Jin family. But her husband stays with the Wang family all day long, how can she have a son?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Jin couldn't help crying: "Master, after you pass away, the Jin family needs the heir of the in-laws, and the queen mother needs the bloodline of my in-laws to assist the unification, for the Jin Mansion, for the queen mother, I really have no choice, so I took Wang Huilan's son......"
She tried her best to put away her tears, raised her head, and looked directly at General Jin's tablet, and slowly the majesty of Mrs. Jin appeared on her face again, "Master, you have passed away for so many years, I have been working hard to support the Jin family, the Jin family has today's prosperity, and there is today's stability above the court, I dare not say that I have merit, but I dare to say that I do my best, and I focus on the overall situation everywhere, even if I go underground to see the ancestors of the Jin family and you, I have a clear conscience." ”
"But now, Yuanbao's background can no longer be hidden......" Mrs. Jin said, tears flowing down again, "My most trusted nephew, he is deliberately making a fuss about Yuanbao's life experience, and wants to steal everything from the Jin family." Master, tell me, how do I protect the Jin family, how do I protect the ingots? ”
After saying this, Madame Jin slowly sat up straight, and she looked at the tablet. gradually calmed down, calmed down his emotions, gritted his teeth and said, "Master." By now, the Jin family is in danger...... No matter how it ends, I have to protect the ingots...... No matter how hard this incident hits him, I have to keep the bloodline of our Jin family! Master, you have a spirit in heaven, please bless me......"
With that, Mrs. Kim looked at General Kim's tablet. He kowtowed three times before getting up and leaving.
*****
The gold ingots were tired all day and full of sleepiness. However, I couldn't sleep at all, and finally it was almost early in the morning, so I fell asleep in a daze.
In a dream. Filling. They were all bloody wounds of the jade unicorn......
"Young Master......"
"Young Master......"
A call woke him up from the nightmare, he slowly opened his eyes, saw Ah Fu with a concerned face, frowned slightly, and said, "What bothers me?" ”
Ah Fu hurriedly replied, "Young master, the old lady asked you to go over now." ”
As soon as he heard this, the gold ingots sat up suddenly. A face full of surprise: "My mother woke up?" I didn't care about any etiquette image immediately. Immediately pulled his shoes and ran towards the Hibiscus Garden.
By the time Jin Yuan Bao entered the house, Mrs. Jin was already sitting in the room in full dress, and her expression had calmed down a lot.
Seeing that his mother was awake, Jin Yuan immediately stepped forward excitedly, knelt on Mrs. Jin's leg, took Mrs. Jin's hand and said, "Mother, it's great that you're awake." The jade unicorn forced you to commit suicide, and your son will definitely seek justice for you. ”
Madame Jin smiled slightly, reached out and gently stroked the hair and cheeks of the gold ingot, her eyes were loving.
Jin Yuan looked up at Mrs. Jin, and was already a little aware of what Mrs. Jin was going to say next, and felt a little uneasy in his heart: "Mother......"
"Yuanbao, my mother has something to say to you." Mrs. Kim seemed to have mustered up her courage.
Seeing Mrs. Jin's expression, Jin Yuanbao's eyes immediately widened in horror and evaded: "Mother, don't say anything, don't say anything, your body is still very weak, you have to rest well." ”
"Yuanbao, don't run away, it's time for our mother and son to face reality together." Mrs. Jin calmed down her emotions and said slowly: "Jade Qilin's adoptive mother, Yu's real name is Wang Huilan, and she is your father's concubine. Yuanbao, I'm not your mother. The person who gave birth to you is Wang Huilan. ”
This sentence came out of Mrs. Jin's mouth, which is undoubtedly the most real evidence, like a thunderbolt on the head of the gold ingot.
The gold ingot's eyes widened instantly, and the expression on his face froze.
"It's true." Mrs. Jin endured her heartache, "Twenty years ago, it was I who took away Wang Huilan's newborn child and drove her out of the Jin Mansion. I had no choice. Your father, General Kim, died on the battlefield, leaving me alone and widowed. The Queen Mother only believes in her relatives, I have no heirs, the Queen Mother will not hand over the Weapons Manufacturing Bureau to me, and the power and glory of the Jin family will no longer exist. How many people in the DPRK and China covet the Kim family, and the Kim family cannot be left without an owner for a day. I regard Wang Huilan's child as my own flesh and blood with General Jin, which is forced to protect myself, and I have worked hard for the past 20 years to support the big tree of the Jin family and make it prosperous. It is because of you that my mother is today's Mrs. Jin, and the Jin Mansion is prosperous today. ”
Although he had doubted it, he did not take it as real. He's been running away, avoiding......
But today, Mrs. Jin suddenly showed the truth naked in front of him, so how could Jin Yuan Bao accept it for a while!
He shook his head in disbelief, his cold hand was withdrawn from Mrs. Jin's hand, only to feel that his mind was blank, and there was only one question left, why did you lie to me? Why did you lie to me for twenty whole years?
Suddenly, a thunderclap exploded outside the house, pulling the gold ingot's mind back.
He smiled sadly: "Qilin lied to me, you lied to me too, why did the two women I love the most lied to me!" Jade Qilin said that she lied to me for her mother and to help me recognize my relatives. You said that you lied to me, for the sake of the overall situation, for the sake of the Jin family, you all have so many big truths to talk about, my gold ingots have always thought they are smart, but you treat me as a fool. A fool who has grown to be twenty years old and doesn't even know whose own mother it is. ”
Seeing his dejected appearance, Mrs. Jin felt more and more like a knife: "My mother is sorry for you, but my mother can't help it, my mother really does this for the Jin family." ”
"You treat me as your biological son and the only orthodox heir of the Jin family, so as not to lose the grace of the Queen Mother, to grasp the power of the Weapons Manufacturing Bureau, and to hold the powerful position of the Jin family. I'm just a pawn in your hands. The gold ingots trembled and slowly stood up in the chair.
"No...... No......" Mrs. Jin burst into tears, shook her head desperately, and said, "That's how it started at first." But later, my mother really loves you, and my mother doesn't want to lose you. ”
However, how could the gold ingots listen to this at this moment? He staggered out of the house, unable to hear Madame King's crying behind him.
Jin Yuan walked out of the Golden Mansion in a trance, only feeling that he had lived for twenty years. It's just a conspiracy, a joke. After twenty years of his gold ingots, he didn't even know who his own mother was, the two women he loved the most. They all deceived him so hard......
He walked through the two boxes in a daze, and suddenly a lightning bolt pierced the gloomy sky, and then a deafening thunder exploded, and in an instant. Suddenly the sky turned white. The torrential rain smashed down.
The gold ingots paused, looked up at the sky, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a wry smile, even God knew that he was uncomfortable?
The wind carried the raindrops and smashed on the bluestone slab, splashing one after another, crackling to form a rain curtain. It was as if a white curtain had been pulled up between heaven and earth, for a moment. Pedestrians all over the street took refuge.
Only the gold ingots staggered alone in the rain, cloaked and wet, like a walking corpse, completely devoid of the former suave and arrogant image.
Suddenly, a carriage came galloping in!
However, Jin Yuanbao's mind was blank at this time, his eyes were desperate, and he didn't even know how to dodge, so the coachman was skilled and didn't really hit it, but was just taken to the ground by the galloping carriage.
Looking at the prostrate and sloppy gold ingots, the coachman couldn't help but scold: "Don't you have long eyes? If you want to die, go to another place to die, don't look for Lao Tzu's bad luck...... "After scolding, I didn't even look at the gold ingots, so I drove away in a carriage.
Jin Yuan sat in the water in a daze, as if he didn't feel the slightest pain of falling, and he stared numbly at the waterhole on the ground. The rain continued to fall, shattering his reflection in the pool......
He only saw himself broken in the water, but he forgot that in the Jin Mansion behind a few alleys, Mrs. Jin was sitting by the window, deeply worried about him.
After the rain, the weather cleared up instantly. Clear blue sky, cloudless.
A group of beggars sat under the base of the city wall to bask in the sun, and when the gold ingots staggered past them, they suddenly stopped, turned around and walked towards the group of beggars, took off their jade pendants, and threw them at the beggars.
"Do you want something delicious? Do you want to be angry with fresh clothes? Take these, take these, and have whatever you want! The gold ingots smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes.
When the beggars looked at each other and hesitated, a little beggar tentatively picked up the jade pendant.
"Good eyesight!" Jin Yuan Bao applauded and smiled: "This jade pendant can give you a hundred acres of fertile land and a herd of mules and horses!" Take it, take it away! ”
"Really?" The beggars were surprised.
Jin Yuan Bao smiled coldly: "People are fake, but things are genuine." ”
As soon as the words fell, the beggars immediately rushed to each other, one by one, and almost fought.
Jin Yuan looked at them and sneered, the world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit, as expected.
He took off his luxurious coat, draped it over a shirtless little beggar, and said with a smile: "Come on, come on, this dress is unique in the whole capital, it is extremely luxurious, put it on you, you are now a gold ingot......
The little beggar was flattered: "Thank you, uncle, thank you, son......"
"Childe?" The gold ingots laughed maniacally: "I always thought that I was born rich, but in fact I was just a puppet wrapped in brocade clothes and food......
The little beggar naturally didn't understand the words of the gold ingot, so he retreated a few steps in horror.
A beggar who seemed to be the leader glanced at the garment, and then said loudly: "Ignore him, I think this man is a madman, but his things seem to be of the highest quality." With that, he led all the beggars around him to rob the gold ingots of his clothes.
The gold ingots were pushed by them, but they didn't resist, but laughed, and took off their clothes one by one: "Don't worry, don't worry, it's all for ......you" He took off his clothes one by one and gave them to the beggars, and after a while, his upper body was stripped naked.
He looked at everyone with a smile: "Now you are a gold ingot, you are also a gold ingot, you are also a gold ingot, you are all a gold ingot......"
It was already late autumn, and it was pouring rain, so the air was cool at this time. However, the gold ingots didn't seem to notice it at all, but looked up to the sky and shouted: "Happy! After stripping away all these burdens, I know who I am! Happy, happy! ”
However, two tears slipped down in that smile.
I don't know that after a few days, the Jin Mansion has not found the whereabouts of the gold ingots, and Mrs. Jin can't help but panic, but at this point, she can't tell the world, so she has to send more people to search for the figure of the gold ingots in the whole city.
At this time, the gold ingots were coarse and ragged, the bun was gone, the hair was scattered, and he sat in front of a cheap stall on the side of the road, drinking heavily, and without any scruples, he directly picked up the wine bottle and poured it into his mouth.
At night, the gold ingots seemed to have drunk it, stood upside down on the table, and turned around to leave.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper of the wine stall hurriedly rushed over and grabbed him: "Guest officer, you haven't settled the bill yet." ”
"Huh?" The gold ingots blurred his eyes, touched the pockets on his body, and was already penniless, and then instinctively waved his hand, still a noble son: "Bookkeeping." ”
The shopkeeper was slightly stunned, looked at him, and then said with a smile: "Officials and guests, the small shop is a small business, and there is no credit." ”
"Young Master Ben won't lose your money, be less wordy, and keep accounts." The gold ingots were obviously drunk, so he pushed the shopkeeper away and left.
The shopkeeper was pushed by him and staggered, and immediately became angry: "It's all so virtuous, and you dare to call yourself a young master, and you don't pee to take care of yourself, you want to eat the overlord meal, right?" Come on, call me. ”
When the two guys heard the sound, they came over and grabbed the gold ingots and beat them.
"Beat me hard until he has a long memory and doesn't dare to eat white food again."
got the order of the shopkeeper, and the guys were even more merciless, punching and kicking the gold ingots.
The gold ingots curled up on the ground, covered his head with his hands, and let the guys beat him hard, and he didn't fight back, even the eyebrow bone was beaten out of blood, and his body was already bruised, but he couldn't stop laughing: "Good fight!" Don't stop, hit! Well played! (To be continued......)
