Chapter 296: Return to the capital

The Queen Mother sternly asked Emperor Zhou to rush back to the capital as quickly as possible, did not return to the palace, and went directly to the Three Princes' Mansion to visit Su Xuan, hugging Su Xuan and crying.

The problem between Su Xuan and Zhao Ye, the Queen Mother understood in her heart, but she chose to turn a blind eye, thinking that after having a child, there would be harmony between the two, but now it seems that she thinks badly, not every girl is willing to accept her fate, and then live the kind of life that is at least the most standard in the eyes of others, but she forgot, some girls look weak, but she just doesn't accept her fate!

She felt sorry for Su Xuan, her unborn great-grandson, and at the same time, she faintly felt that the family happiness she longed for might not be so perfect, although this imperfection was in her expectation, but she still looked forward to this miracle with the innocence that did not fit her experience.

Sometimes I can't help but laugh at myself, and I really go back the more I live.

The Queen Mother wanted to know the truth about Su Xuan's miscarriage, but Zhao Ye had already made up the matter satisfactorily and found two substitutes for the dead. His wife is unwilling to give birth to an heir for herself, for a man, this is a humiliation, he naturally will not let more people know, in addition, the Queen Mother is still very concerned about Su Xuan, if she knows that she would rather kill her own child with her own hands than give birth, I don't know what thoughts will be left in the Queen Mother's heart.

However, Zhao Ye's punishment for Su Xuan did not do nothing, he killed all the people who served around her, he knew what kind of method to use to make her the most painful.

The Queen Mother went to comfort Su Xuan, Zhao Ling and Jiang Xiaoyu did not follow her, and the people in the capital knew that the Chu Wangfu was happily preparing for marriage, and going at this time was undoubtedly with a deeper stinging meaning, they didn't know if Su Xuan put it down, but they all felt that it was better not to do it for the time being, or not to appear in front of her at the same time.

Zhao Ling sent Jiang Xiaoyu back to Jiang Mansion, he needed to go back to report his safety to his father, and there were some things in the Jiang family that Jiang Xiaoyu also needed to deal with.

"Old lady, Xiaoyu is back!" Jiang Xiaoyu knelt beside the bed, looking at the old lady of the Jiang family, who was already thin and shrunk into a ball, she was slightly stunned in her heart, the breath of death became more and more intense, if it weren't for her wheezing, Jiang Xiaoyu even wondered if it was a living thing on the bed.

The old lady looked at the top of the bed vacantly, and asked after a pause, "Is he still alive?" ”

"Alive!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "He is in good health, he still remembers you, and has been waiting for your news!" It's just that the big tree you met at the beginning has been too long ago and has long since disappeared! ”

Jiang Xiaoyu didn't want to ask what was buried under that tree, it didn't matter anymore, it might just be a dream of her girlhood.

"Hmm!" The old lady nodded slightly, there was no surprise or disappointment, she couldn't be sure if what Jiang Xiaoyu said was true, but she was willing to believe that it was true.

"I don't have long to live!" The old lady said in a rotten and hoarse voice, "Your marriage to the prince must be hurried!" Oh yes, Haoran seems to be in trouble, I hope you, as a sister, can take care of it! ”

"When I came back, the third aunt had already told me, don't worry, it's not a big problem!" Jiang Xiaoyu said softly, the old lady is living a miserable life now, she knows that maybe death is a relief for her, but whether it is for herself or for the Jiang family, she drags it and lives with a tenacious perseverance.

Jiang Xiaoyu was still unbearable, and walked out of the room and took a deep breath.

"Eldest sister, are you back?" Jiang Youran's eyes had a trace of sincere surprise in her eyes, these days when Jiang Xiaoyu was away, she was a little scared, this Jiang Mansion has been extremely cold since her mother died and Yiran left, she had no intention of getting family affection from Jiang Yuan, for this gradually strange father, her sense of trust was not as much as Jiang Xiaoyu, at least she had saved herself at all costs.

"Hmm!" Jiang Xiaoyu looked at the sunlight and was a little cold, just in the old lady's house, the cold made her forget that it was summer now, "Are these days okay?" ”

"Very good!" Jiang Youran was a little worried, because in the days when Jiang Xiaoyu was away, Jiang Yiran's activities were quite frequent, and she even came to her twice, she didn't understand Jiang Yiran's explicit hints, when her mother didn't finish it, she hoped that she could finish it.

In any case, she couldn't and didn't dare to do it when she poisoned her grandmother, and her mother's example was in front of her, how could she have the guts? Since she was sure that Jiang Xiaoyu would not hurt her, and might help her in the future, how could she do something that made Jiang Xiaoyu unpleasant? What's more, no matter what, Jiang Xiaoyu is kind to her.

She didn't know why she still had the face to come to her after Jiang Yiran tried to kill herself, but she really couldn't give up her conscience completely like her, she still regarded her as her sister more or less, so she still couldn't help but didn't tell Jiang Xiaoyu about her request.

"That...... I don't really want to stay in the capital anymore, I'm scared here, and I want to live a simpler life, even if it's harder! Jiang Youran said, compared to the feeling of not knowing when she would lose something, she didn't have much greed for wealth and power, and her biggest wish now was to stay away from Jiang Yiran, stay away from right and wrong, and live in peace.

"Wait!" Jiang Xiaoyu's gaze moved away from Jiang Youran's face, watching the sun shine on the budding flowers, but her mood couldn't be brightened because of this, "Grandmother's days are short, you can accompany her again!" Wait for grandmother...... You send her back to Zhejiang, maybe in her hometown, she can be safer! ”

"Hmm!" Jiang Youran nodded, with a hint of melancholy in her eyes, she had forgotten what an arrogant and domineering girl was like before.

Jiang Xiaoyu didn't greet Jiang Youran too much, because there were indeed a basket of things waiting for her to deal with, and the first thing to bear the brunt of was Qi Qiaoyan's matter, the key to this, Liu Xiaodong had already written to himself and briefly said it. She really didn't expect Jiang Yiran to attack Qi Qiaoyan in order to win over Qin Hui, in fact, when dealing with Qi Siyuan, she selectively ignored Qi Qiaoyan, but after thinking about it, when Qi Siyuan chose to rebel, he naturally blocked the lives of the whole family, he didn't care about the life of his own daughter, so why did he bother to do this?

It's only now, when she really has to face this problem, that she thinks about it. She hated Qi Siyuan to death, but she never seemed to want Qi Qiaoyan's life.

"My baby apprentice, it's getting more and more beautiful!" Liu Ruli looked at Jiang Xiaoyu with a smug gaze, "This trip seems to be a lot darker!" ”

"Old man, come less!" Jiang Xiaoyu snorted, "What about her?" ”

"My darling, you're shy!" Liu Ruli laughed, "I see that you are still wearing men's clothes, and you have harmed the girls of good families along the way, right?" ”

"Why is Master becoming more and more unserious?" Jiang Xiaoyu sighed, "Didn't you travel to the rivers and lakes with your senior brother?" Why did you go back to the capital again? ”

"For the sake of two people, the first person is your grandmother, I count the days, she is about to run out of oil, I have been practicing medicine for so many years, I know that this kind of pain of gradual loss of life, it is an end to survive, just seeing that your marriage with Zhao Ling is near, even if she is tortured, she should not die at this moment!" Liu Ruli sighed.

Jiang Xiaoyu lowered his eyes slightly, and asked again, "What about another person?" ”

Liu Ruli smiled mysteriously: "You'll know later!" ”

The two talked as they walked, and Liu Ruli nodded towards the room in front of him and said, "It's right there!" ”

Jiang Xiaoyu looked through the window and looked at Qi Qiaoyan sitting in front of the bronze mirror with a pale face combing her hair, her eyes empty, like a soulless puppet.

She looked at it for a moment and said, "Let's go!" ”

"Don't go and see her?" Liu Ruli asked in some surprise.

"No need!" Jiang Xiaoyu shook her head lightly, putting herself in her shoes, if Qi Qiaoyan came to comfort herself after learning that Qi Siyuan had slaughtered the Bai family army and killed her grandfather, would she have the idea of dying with her? If she killed her father, what identity do you have to comfort her?

The best way to comfort some people is to use more miserable things, and for Qi Qiaoyan, nothing can be more miserable than her, and no matter what kind of posture she appears, she will inevitably have the aura of a winner, but it makes matters worse.

It's just that she can't become a saint yet, and she will be with her in the future, and she will be a passerby, if she wants revenge, she can just come.

Liu Ruli also agreed with Jiang Xiaoyu's idea and didn't ask any more. There are some things that have never been experienced, and the opinions of others are like seeing flowers in the fog after all, and they can't influence the decisions of the parties, not to mention that no matter what kind of decision Xiaoyu has, he will always support it.

"Actually, this time Xiao Dong was alert enough and kept monitoring Qin Hui, which saved her, but I didn't expect Qin Hui to hook up with Jiang Yiran!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "But with Jiang Yiran's temperament, if Qin Hui can't provide her with value, she may not bother to help him arrest Qi Qiaoyan back, but what is the secret between them?" Jiang Xiaoyu said softly, "What will they do next?" ”

"Leave them alone!" Liu Ruli thought for a while and said, "There is a person you have to see!" ”

"Oh?" Jiang Xiaoyu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Who?" ”

"Just follow me!"
