Chapter 133 Jiang Caiping, Jiang Ping'er (the first to ask for a monthly pass)
Chapter 133 Jiang Caiping, Jiang Ping'er
Ruyan hugged a bunch of women's dresses, because she was just a plum fragrance, and there was no too gorgeous dress. However, as a favored personal maid in a large family, the quality of Ruyan's clothes is not as bad as that, at least better than the sister in the door.
Zhang Xuan took the lead and remained silent.
Ruyan obediently followed behind, and didn't dare to do anything.
Zhang Xuan wanted to go to the secret room to see Concubine Mei, and the reason why she brought Ruyan instead of Ruyu was because Ruyan was like a jade who was calm and scheming, and knew how to control her words and deeds. If she is Ruyu, she is too naΓ―ve and innocent, and she will inadvertently leak the news.
And if it is like smoke, it is not in line, and if she is not in the heart, she will definitely rot some words into her stomach and will not mess up half of the sentences.
It's not that Ruyu can't be relied on, it's just because of her personality, and girls who are too innocent are always not suitable to intervene in some confidential matters.
Zhang Xuan turned left and right in the dark night with smoke, but in fact, he went around in a big circle and turned back. Because the flower hall where the secret room is located is in the back garden, it is not far from Zhang Xuan's study.
But Zhang Xuan didn't take Ruyan over directly, but deliberately went around in circles. It's not pretending to be mysterious, but Zhang Xuan needs to sort out his somewhat messy mind.
Concubine Mei's stay in the mansion must be a potential hidden danger. may be safe, but it may also erupt at some point, impacting Zhang Xuan and the Zhang family.
Zhang Xuan is definitely not the kind of person who has the benevolence of a woman and can't resist the opportunity to make a decision. But as a time-traveler who has accepted modern civilization, even if his heart is like a stone, it is difficult to attack a pregnant woman.
Since this is the case, Concubine Mei can only be imprisoned.
He didn't take a certain risk to fight the emperor to the end, and fight for a chance to survive for those subordinates in the Rongwang Mansion, because he knew that the emperor was determined to kill people for the sake of Concubine Mei's affairs. Although not many people in King Rong's mansion know about the matter of King Rong and Concubine Mei, there are still people who know some inside information. If these people are allowed to survive, there will be some rumors in the future. How could the emperor not have thought of this?
For the sake of his authority as an emperor and his face as a man, Li Longji will not make the slightest concession. If Zhang Xuan insists on forcibly singing against the emperor, the risk can be imagined.
The current power cannot be maintained, and it may even suffer a catastrophe from which it will never recover. After weighing the pros and cons, he chose to remain silent.
The world was far more ruthless and predatory than he had imagined, and this natural rule, full of blood, was not something he could compete with alone.
The flower hall had been locked and sealed, and Zhang Xuan was the only one who held the key.
Zhang Xuan stepped forward and silently unlocked the lock, but did not enter, but stood in the shadow in front of the hall door and groaned for a long time. Ruyan didn't dare to disturb him, and stood honestly to the side.
Zhang Xuan's heart flashed, and he walked in slowly, turned back and smiled at Ruyan, "Ruyan, come in with me, lock the door." β
Regarding Concubine Mei's matter, since Zhang Xuan has made up her mind, there will be no more swings.
In fact, in his subconscious, Concubine Mei's secret does not need to be connected for life, but only needs to keep the old secret during the last few years of the emperor's survival. After waiting for the past few years, as long as the old emperor dies, there are not many people who really pose a threat to Zhang Xuan.
Ruyan became more and more shocked, she followed Zhang Xuan down the dark passage, and walked into the secret room, her pretty face became extremely red, and her thin shoulders trembled slightly.
Zhang Xuan stared at the iron boxes, he didn't open them, but he was as delicate as smoke, and he couldn't guess that they were all filled with money.
Zhang Xuan didn't know how much wealth there was in front of him, and he didn't want to figure it out for the time being. It's just that he knows that the current income of the Datang Central Finance is only forty or fifty million yuan a year, and the property in the secret room is converted into a staggering figure.
Zhang Xuan let out a sigh of relief, and then stepped forward again and pushed open the door of the secret room.
In the dim candlelight, Concubine Mei sat on the bed with a pale face, staring at Zhang Xuan and Ruyan who walked in.
In the underground secret room of this mansion, there is a woman β who is like a flower and jade...... Childe, this is ...... Ruyan secretly glanced at Zhang Xuan, and the shock in her heart can be imagined.
Zhang Xuan stared at Concubine Mei silently, and Concubine Mei also looked at Zhang Xuan numbly, the two faced each other silently, but they did not collide with the spark that the girl expected in her heart.
Ruyan obediently put down the dress in her hand, quietly retreated, and retreated to the outside of the secret room, and when she came out, she also closed the door for the two of them. Because she understands that her son-in-law wants to have confidential things with this woman.
Although the prince was forbidden to hide it from her, she still felt that some things could be better if she didn't know about them. It's a good thing for both yourself and your master.
Although there were thousands of questions echoing in her heart, the girl's curiosity prompted her to wonder about the identity of this woman in the secret room. She is still a girl after all, and she would never have dreamed that this woman would be the imperial concubine, not the woman secretly raised by her master.
Long.
Concubine Mei sighed faintly, her voice desperate and hoarse, "Is it time for the slave family to go?" β
"Actually, I know in my heart that I won't kill. If you wanted to kill, you would have done it a long time ago, and there is no need to compare it to today. Zhang Xuan smiled lightly and sat down on the bed.
"And I don't really want to die...... And not just because of the baby in the womb, am I right? β
Concubine Mei's shriveled lips trembled.
"Jiang Caiping......" Zhang Xuan said softly.
Concubine Mei was suddenly shocked, and looked up at Zhang Xuan, with a glimmer of light in her godless and numb eyes.
"Or call it Jiang Ping'er, the woman in the palace has died in the rebellion, there is no doubt about it."
"My heart is full of hatred...... The old guy who hates the palace is ruthless and unjust, but in fact, he doesn't have much affection for this guy outside the palace. Walking with him, I'm afraid it's also to take revenge on the old guy. β
"When I heard the news of Li Wan's death that day, my mood was very calm β, and I was mentally prepared tomorrow morning." Zhang Xuan clapped his hands and stood up, "Actually, I'm a little worthless for Li Wan." If Li Wan hadn't been for, and he was willing to endure for a while, I am afraid that the situation would have another result. Li Wan is affectionate and righteous, but he has no affection for him, isn't this a great irony? β
Concubine Mei's pale face suddenly turned red, and she trembled her lips and said in a trembling voice, "Their father and son are not good tools - the old one abandoned the slave family and took the opportunity to swallow the slave's body...... Do you think Li Wan is really worried about the safety of the slave family? The slave family has his flesh and blood, will the emperor let him go? β
"After entering this Rongwang Mansion, the slave family was imprisoned here...... Presumably, when he succeeds in his rebellion and really sits on the throne of the emperor, or after the slave family gives birth to this child, he will kill the slave family, right? β
"Whoever knows in the whole world that he has such wealth is a slave except himself. Because of these, it was originally a secret collection of the former Sui, and the treasure map just happened to fall into the hands of the slave father. β
"The slave family saw his ambition, so they gave him a great fortune, and saw how he killed his father and the king......"
Concubine Mei laughed wildly and hoarsely, "It's hateful that after he got it, he wiped out his slave father and brother." And although the slave entered the cold palace, she was still the imperial concubine, but the old tools in the palace were indifferent to it! The slave family hates it so much, and it can't help but eat the flesh and blood of this father and son......"
"It is reasonable to kill slaves and kill their mouths." Concubine Mei smiled sadly, "Can you tell the slave family in time, who is it?" β
When Concubine Mei asked, Zhang Xuan was stunned and immediately smiled.
The matter between Li Wan and Concubine Mei was revealed, and there was an element of his promotion in the dark. But I can't help it, Concubine Mei, who has been confined in the cold palace, doesn't know who this extraordinary young man in front of her is.
However, if King Rong is defeated, he can occupy King Rong's mansion as his own mansion, and he is afraid that he is not an ordinary person.
"Under Zhang Xuan, the son of Zhang Jiuling, the official worships the Zhongyong Marquis of Fuguo, the general of Jinwuwei Yulin Wei Liangwei, and the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion." Zhang Xuan smiled indifferently.
Concubine Mei was taken aback, she was in a high position at such a young age, obviously ......
But she didn't think about it that much at the moment...... It doesn't matter who Zhang Xuan is in the end, the important thing is that she can live and give birth to the child. If it weren't for the child in her womb, she would have committed suicide in despair.
"I'm not going to kill." Zhang Xuan smiled, "You can rest assured." β
"Why? Aren't you afraid that the slave family will not die and bring disaster? Concubine Mei looked up at Zhang Xuan in a daze.
"Because it's a pregnant woman...... Zhang Xuan said indifferently, "Moreover, Concubine Mei is dead, remember my words, you will be called Jiang Ping'er in the future, and Concubine Mei in the past was buried in the rebellion, that's all." β
"As for this child, I will adopt." Zhang Xuan waved his hand suddenly, "You can rest assured in this secret room, and in a few days, I will set it up...... I think it's a smart woman who knows what to do. β
"Take off the palace clothes and put on this dress, from now on, Concubine Mei is dead, and you are Jiang Ping'er."
Zhang Xuan finished and drifted away.
In the secret room, only Jiang Ping'er was left sitting on the bed in a daze, and then her body went limp, and she fell down, hiding her face and letting out a lowered hysterical howl.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Like smoke, I will take care of this woman in the future. Remember my words, today's events are not to be with anyone, including Ruyu. See what I'm saying? β
Ruyan's face was straight, and he bowed his head respectfully, "Son, the slave and maid know, the slave and maid are dead, and they will not talk to outsiders." β
"In the future, this place will be a forbidden place in the house, and no one will be able to approach it."
"In the hands of the key, no one but one dares to approachβ"
Zhang Xuan smiled coldly, "There is no forgiveness for killing!" β
Ruyan had a thrill in his heart, and lowered his head with some fear, and let out a soft "um".
What kind of person Zhang Xuan is, Ruyan naturally knows better than others. His words have always been the same, as a personal maid, she can only do what Zhang Xuan handed over, which is the most basic. Once something goes wrong, even if Zhang Xuan spoils her again, she will not show mercy
