The spacious carriage with mahogany vermilion lacquer is unusually bumpy because it walks on the uneven loess road.

And Xiao Jinxuan opened the curtain of the carriage with one hand and looked out quietly, no one knew what she was thinking in her heart.

Since beating in Taining Courtyard, the final punishment of the old lady is to go to the family temple.

The group of people in the Shuai Mansion didn't even want to give Xiao Jinxuan a night's repair, and at noon, they drove her out of the mansion.

And now, under the supervision of more than a dozen family members who followed the carriage, Xiao Jinxuan was almost driven to the Xiao family temple located a few miles away in the suburbs of Beijing.

The weather in June was already hot, and Xiao Jinxuan saw a layer of fine sweat on her forehead.

Xin, who was sitting in the carriage with the other party, quickly handed over the water bag.

Xin, who has been by Xiao Jinxuan's side since Yangzhou, learned the news that the other party was going to be driven to the family temple outside the mansion, and without the slightest hesitation, he rushed back to the Shuai Mansion and decided to accompany the other party.

After all, this general clan family temple, because it is dedicated to the ancestors of the past dynasties, most of them are built near Zhuangzi in the countryside near the mountains and rivers. So once you go to live there, the conditions must be extremely difficult.

Xin is by his side, and one can take care of Xiao Jinxuan. In addition, if there is all the dirty work, he can do it all, and he will not let Xiao Jinxuan suffer and suffer.

And Xiao Jinxuan, who knew this, took the water bag and drank a few sips of water, then looked at Xin and said:

"Actually, you don't have to insist on coming with me, I left in a hurry today, and I didn't pack all the things I needed. So I left Ling Xiao and Agar, and sorted things out in Forsythia Courtyard first. And when they come to the family temple later, you will go back to Beijing. After all, Xin you are going to marry Baizhu, don't leave the other party to stay in the Shuai Mansion by yourself. ”

Hearing this, Xin refused directly without thinking about it, and then saw him frowning and said:

"Jinxuan, what are you talking about, now that our manpower is not in Jingshi, if I am leaving, what can happen if you have a mistake. As for Baizhu, you should take her with you at all, so that if you are not accustomed to the water and soil in the family temple, she can also treat you nearby. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan shook her head slightly, and then she continued to look at the scenery along the road outside the window, and then said in a soft tone:

"Baizhu has taken care of the second aunt for a year, even if she is a good doctor, now she doesn't know her aunt's body better. If I had taken her with me, my aunt's condition would have been recurred. And the family temple is too hard, and I don't want Baizhu, who is about to become a bride, to come and accompany me to suffer this sin. ”

Since she learned the bad news of Zhou Xianyu, Xiao Jinxuan's open heart was tightly closed.

and has become the same as before, not smiling, cold and indifferent.

But Xin can still see that Xiao Jinxuan still attaches great importance to the people around her, and bothered to plan for everyone, not really indifferent.

And at this moment, Xiao Jinxuan suddenly changed her words, and then murmured with a hint of reminiscence in her eyes:

"Xin, do you remember how similar the scene is when we came to Beijing from Yangzhou. At that time, I was full of spirits, and I secretly swore in my heart that after I came to Changping City, one day I would call the entire Jingshi to know that there was still a concubine like me in the Shuai Mansion. ”

At this point, Xiao Jinxuan's voice suddenly paused. Then after a long time, she smiled a little miserably.

"But you know what, even though I've done it now, I regret it. After all, if I had been staying in Yangzhou, then my fate with Xianyu would have stopped at the time of the snowstorm, and the encounter was in a hurry. There will never be any more of these things, so it is true that I have hurt him. ”

Seeing Zhou Xianyu's death, Xiao Jinxuan still hasn't let go, Xin can't help but be secretly anxious, and comforted again.

And the two people in the carriage had a ride or a conversation effort. At sunset, under the afterglow of the sunset, Xiao Jinxuan's carriage stopped, and Xiao's family temple also appeared in front of them.

Speaking of this temple, it is actually not simple, only the family with the official is qualified to open a temple for the ancestors, and ordinary people are absolutely not qualified.

Because the family temple of the Xiao family is located on the feng shui treasure land surrounded by the village on three sides and facing the direction of Zhengyang.

Because of the illustrious family background and the marshals and generals all over the house, this temple also covers a wide area, and it is a landmark building in Shili and Eight Villages.

And because Xiao Jinxuan's carriage had to travel through the village to come to the Xiao family temple. So immediately the people around were shaken.

Because they saw that Xiao Jinxuan's carriage was marked with the totem of the Shuai Mansion, the villagers only thought that the other party was here to worship their ancestors.

And every time the Xiao family comes to worship their ancestors, they will always give two steamed buns of silver afterwards, so as to pray for the ancestors in the family temple to accumulate yin virtue.

Therefore, the people, who thought that they would soon have money to eat, immediately ran to tell each other.

So when Xiao Jinxuan got off the carriage, she saw that there were nearly 100 villagers, all of whom were waiting in front of the family temple before her, and they were all standing there expectantly.

Seeing this scene, looking at these rural people with patches on their clothes and emaciated and yellowed faces, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but feel a little compassion.

Now the reason why Xiao Jinxuan is still called Bai Chu and others and collects news about Zhou Xianyu is actually just an obsession of hers.

In her heart, she didn't say anything now, but she had slowly accepted the reality of the other party's death.

Therefore, thinking that receiving almsgiving, maybe she could increase some good fortune and reduce bad karma for the other party, so she immediately ordered Xin to take out the silver and personally distribute it to the people around her one by one.

And just when Xiao Jinxuan sent more than 20 copies, and handed more than two taels of broken silver to a six- or seven-year-old girl who was smiling at her.

Suddenly, she could hear the direction of the family temple behind her, and a voice full of endless ridicule and resentment came without warning.

"Who should I be here to act as a good person, it turns out to be Jinxuan's niece. I really didn't expect that I, the third aunt who was driven to the family temple, would be lucky enough to see you this time. Xiao Jinxuan, haven't you always been very powerful, why are you being sent here now? ”

He turned around indifferently, in fact, he had just heard the voice of the person who spoke.

Xiao Jinxuan knew that the other party was the third lady of the former Shuai Mansion, the third lady Qian, the third aunt who once wanted to put her to death.

At the beginning, Xiao Jinyu was dismissed by Qian Yunhong, and she was shocked and angry, which led to a red miscarriage.

The old lady in anger hated all the Qian family, so under the intentional traction of Zhao's words, she drove her third daughter-in-law, Qian, to the family temple.

And looking at the Qian family, who was still dressed brightly despite being in the remote place of the family temple, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but say lightly:

"The third aunt hasn't seen you for a long time, and it seems that your life in the family temple is still very nourishing. As for why I got here, I don't have to worry about my aunt, if there is nothing else, Jinxuan will go in and rest. ”

Xiao Jinxuan is now the county lord, and her identity is naturally higher than that of the Qian family.

But although the Qian family is deep in the family temple, because before coming here, the private money she saved in the years when she was in charge of the Shuai Mansion was brought by her, and she has always been rich and easy to do, so she has always been well-informed about the outside world.

Especially for Xiao Jinxuan, a big enemy, the Qian family has been secretly watching her almost all the time.

Therefore, Zhou Xianyu's death and the other party's current loss of power, she knows everything clearly.

Therefore, when Xiao Jinxuan passed by her and was about to step into the family temple, the Qian family immediately grabbed her, and then said with a malicious smile:

"Jinxuan, don't rush in, now that you have just arrived at the family temple, you will inevitably have to deal with these surrounding people in the future. Therefore, my aunt kindly introduced you to everyone, and it would be easier for you to walk around here. ”

As soon as Qian finished saying this, she immediately arrested Xiao Jinxuan even more vigorously, and then she immediately raised her voice and said:

"Folks, you must not have guessed. The one standing in front of you, but the Zhaoyang County Lord of our Great Zhou, is also the princess who has never passed through the royal prince. ”

For Zhou Xianyu, the subjects of the entire Great Zhou, there is no one who does not know the name of this war king.

And the other party is in the hearts of the people, that is the god of war who guards them, the pride of the entire Great Zhou, and a living legend.

And Qian saw that everyone's attention was focused on Xiao Jinxuan, and then a trace of hideousness flashed in her eyes, and then she continued:

"But you should have also heard that the war king of our Great Zhou is now dead. But you have no idea that the death of the prince was all caused by my niece. Obviously, if she is willing to go to the border fortress, Beirong will have a chance to withdraw from the army, and the king will not need to be personally recruited, and he will not be killed by the Yeying people. Jinxuan is from Yangzhou, she was regarded as a disaster star when she was in her hometown, and it is obvious that the invincible royal king, the reason why he will die this time is because he is mixed with a disaster star, everyone said that I was right! ”

Most of the people in the countryside had never even read a book, so Qian's affectionate words immediately convinced most of them.

And everyone will also see that Xiao Jinxuan did not come to worship her ancestors, but was driven to the family temple.

Thinking of Qian's words that the other party was a disaster, the people around were thinking, maybe it was for this reason that even the Shuai Mansion was unwilling to take in the other party, so Xiao Jinxuan was expelled from the family temple.

With Zhou Xianyu in the Great Zhou, it will not be in the way of the plug over there, so the other party's position in the hearts of the people is no worse than that of Zhou Xianrui, the virtuous king.

So driven by ignorance and anger, he immediately didn't know who was in the crowd, and he actually smashed an egg at Xiao Jinxuan.

However, because the accuracy was poor, he just fell on the stone steps under the opponent's feet.

But someone took the lead, and this would already regard Xiao Jinxuan as the people around the disaster.

Immediately, some people continued to smash all the things in their hands at Xiao Jinxuan, and their mouths shouted excitedly:

"Kill you, a misguided disaster star, without the protection of the war king, Da Zhou will start another war. Folks, this woman killed the prince, and now that she is here, she will kill us all sooner or later. Anyway, even her own relatives don't care about her, let's just beat her to death, which can be regarded as doing the right thing for heaven. ”

Under this kind of angry and excited emotion, the people who were still restrained by Shicai had even walked in front of Xiao Jinxuan and threw all the things in their hands at her.

The egg liquid was wrapped in her hair, mixed with green vegetable leaves, and Xiao Jinxuan's face was all sticky, looking extremely embarrassed.

And the stones that were thrown will also hit her all over her body, and the pain will not stop. The cheeks and jade neck have long been bruised.

But in the face of all this, Xiao Jinxuan didn't move, and she didn't defend herself, she just stood where she was and closed her eyes, and she endured everything.

Because compared to the physical injury, her heart will also be scarred.

And she even felt that all this in front of her was her atonement to Zhou Xianyu again, so even if she was beaten to death and scolded to death, she would not dodge it.
