Outside the window, it was dark, the night was very quiet, Jiang Xuan supported his elbows on his knees, Jiang Chong had already left, but she was just sitting there, suddenly she raised her hand and stroked her head, her father still had reservations in her conversation, what conditions should the Xu family have, but her father didn't tell her.

After washing, she lay on the bed, thinking about it, not knowing what the Xu family wanted to do.

The next day, while she was still in a daze, she heard a commotion outside, she turned over and got up, lifted the curtain, and called 'Biyun'

Outside, Biyun pushed the door in.

"What's going on out there? So noisy? Jiang Xuan asked.

Biyun pursed her lips, "It's the second wife who is arresting people." The general had instructed the people around the old lady not to contact the outside, but this morning he found that someone was helping the old lady's grandmother Shen to pass the news out.

It was passed on to my uncle and grandfather. ”

Jiang Xuan knew that it must be the old lady who was locked up and wanted to find her mother's family to help her.

"Mama Shen? Didn't her father judge her? Jiang Xuan muttered.

After breakfast, Jiang Xuan asked where Mama Shen was now, and then took Biyun over.

The second wife locked Mama Shen in a utility room, and when she saw Jiang Xuan, Mama Shen stared vigilantly for a moment, and was relieved to see that Jiang Xuan only brought Biyun.

"Mama Shen." Jiang Xuan's voice was like a breeze.

Mama Shen's pupils shrank, "Big girl, please plead with the second wife, my deed of sale is in the hands of the old lady, what she asks me to do, how dare I not do it." ”

"I can't help it."

The second wife would not poison Mama Shen, but when Jiang Chong came back and knew about it, it was different.

Mama Shen now wants the second wife to be punished first, and when she goes to Jiang Chong, it is not good to refute the face of her brother and daughter-in-law.

"Giving you a plea? Do you want me to intercede for you? Get you out? Jiang Xuan smiled.

Mama Shen nodded again and again, if she can live, who wants to die.

Jiang Xuan smiled again and said nonchalantly, "I have spared you before and didn't interrogate you, but I didn't expect you to jump in by yourself and want to die, am I full?"

Do you want to die, but I'm still holding you back? ”

Mama Shen froze there suddenly, "Big girl, the old slave also took care of you a lot in the past, we have no grievances recently, and there is no hatred in the past...... Why do you ......" her gaze was frightened.

Jiang Xuan laughed, "No grievances in the near future, no hatred in the past?" She smiled at Mama Shen,

"You have been by the old lady's side for more than forty years, and you are the old lady's confidant, and you have been by the old lady's side since she was not married, and you are the one who grasps the things around the old lady.

How many people in the Jiang family were sold back then, but you are the only one who has always been an evergreen tree by the old lady's side.

"My mother's blood, is it delicious? Mama Shen? ”

Jiang Xuan said calmly.

When she investigated the cause of her mother's death, she knew that Mama Shen was the dowry girl brought out by the old lady from her mother's house, they grew up together since childhood, and their relationship was extraordinary.

No matter what happens, if the old lady intervenes, there is the figure of Mama Shen.

Speaking of which, the marriage of a girl in a high-ranking family is not only to have a person who will make it easy in the future, but also to be an aunt in the house.

In order to consolidate the favor, or to help the master win favor from other aunts, the dowry maid is sometimes a little more beautiful than the master.

Mama Shen is like that.

She is not much different in age from the old lady, but she looks younger than the old lady, and her face still retains the beauty of her youth.

Old lady Jiang is like many men, there has never been a lack of concubines in the house, but the old lady has good means, and now the three masters of the Jiang family are all descendants, and none of the women of the old lady have left heirs.

She vaguely heard some old people mention that there was an aunt who was pregnant with a child, but on the day of delivery, one corpse and two lives, both mother and child died.

And although Mama Shen is beautiful, she has never married, and she serves the old lady by herself.

Then, she must know a lot of secrets of the old lady in her hands.

Mama Shen looked at the calm Jiang Xuan, like a lightning bolt falling from the sky, making her scalp tingle.

She stiffened all over.

The most secret secret in my heart was revealed, and it hurt like tearing a layer of flesh and skin.

Mama Shen pinned her neck, with a solemn look on her face, held back her tears, and said sadly,

"If you want to add sin, there is no excuse. Now that the old lady is locked up, and the slave and maid have lost their support, naturally the eldest girl can say whatever she wants. ”

Jiang Xuan looked at her with a smile and sighed lowly,

"From the capital to Jinling, and from Jinling to the capital, how many servants are there in the Jiang family, and how many are around the old lady, but why have you been standing."

Jiang Xuan said sharply, "You stepped on my mother's bones, absorbed my mother's flesh and blood, and flattered ...... in front of the old lady."

As soon as her words came out, Mama Shen's face became panicked, but at this time, there was no room for turn, and she could only go to the end one by one.

"What the eldest girl said, the slave didn't understand very well."

The back of Mama Shen's neck was easily lifted, like carrying a chicken, and then it was loosened again, and with an exclamation, Mama Shen was thrown to the ground.

Biyun clapped his hands.

Mama Shen was dizzy from the fall, and watched her face shaken in front of her.

It seems that Lin Tang's unjust soul climbed up for revenge.

She shuddered as hard as she could.

"The only thing you can do now is to tell me what happened in the beginning, whether it is the death of my mother or the death of the old lady."

"If you don't say anything, you will wait for all the creditors to whom your nephew owes money to come to your door, and chop off his left hand and his right hand, and cut him until he bleeds.

And then completely fall into the abyss.

Don't you expect your nephew to give you a send-off in old age? I'll let him go down with you to serve you underground. ”

Just like when she and the old lady dealt with Lin Tang.

Mama Shen raised her head, her face was pale, and she stared at Jiang Xuan tightly, and suddenly, a weird smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she whispered,

"The eldest lady is virtuous and virtuous, but she blocked the way of others, and was manipulated by the old lady when she gave birth."

Jiang Xuan knew this, she motioned to Mama Shen and said,

"The maid Green Willow who served by Madame's side at the beginning, although it was said that the old lady brought it back, she is not the old lady's person."

Jiang Xuan looked at Mama Shen thoughtfully, and she asked in a flat tone, "Then whose person is she?" How do you know? ”

Mama Shen was silent for a while and said,

"Another time I went out of the house to buy something, I saw green willow on the street, sneaky, I secretly followed her, and then I saw green willow into a private room in a teahouse, the private room looked very high-end, I didn't go up, just waited for her in the corner downstairs, and after a while, I saw green willow come out.

After a while, a middle-aged man in his forties came out.

I didn't know who he was at the time, but I heard the shopkeeper of the teahouse say hello to him and ask him if he would go back to Zhongyibo's mansion. ”

Zhongyi Bofu, isn't that the Xu family?

So, Green Willow is a member of the Xu family?

The Xu family has already nailed a nail in their own home?

"Later, the old lady and I went to Xu's house as guests, and it was clear that I saw the man following Uncle Xu more than once.

I am the only one who knows about this matter, and even the old lady didn't say it, but the old lady always thought that the green willow was her person, but she didn't expect to fall into someone else's way. ”

"As for the old lady, the old lady and his relationship have always been bad, I have long thought that he is dead, and your mother's death is just a trigger."

She told Jiang Xuan how the old lady was drugged, what kind of medicine it was, and how long it was.

"Big girl, I've said everything, please spare my nephew's life." She slammed her head and kowtowed.

Jiang Xuan glanced at Biyun, Biyun understood, and picked up Mama Shen.

"Biyun, go to Grandmother's to have a look."

Biyun glanced at him, said yes, and carried Mama Shen to the secluded Buddhist hall with Jiang Xuan.

Entering the courtyard, Jiang Xuan looked at the guards arranged by Jiang Chong in the courtyard, and motioned to Biyun to solve it.

Biyun nodded, left Bilan, and quietly followed her to the door of the room where Old Madam Jiang was closed.

This is the first time Jiang Xuan and Mrs. Jiang have met since that night in Jinling.

Jiang Chong doesn't want to publicize the matter, he will inevitably send someone to guard it, Biyun's role is to find out the people who are secretly peeping, what she did today, she doesn't want Jiang Chong to know.

Mrs. Jiang's treatment is better than Xu's, at least the food is better than Xu's, hearing a voice outside the door, she asked Mama Shen who came in in in horror, "Who is here?" ”

"It's the big girl here." Mama Shen also reported to her with surprise, although Biyun didn't do anything to her just now, she picked herself up with one hand, which was terrifying.

Mrs. Jiang was full of liver and gall.

She was kneeling on the futon and quickly got up, rushed to the bed, and shrank in the corner.

A pair of eyes stared at the outside tightly, and sure enough, after a while, Jiang Xuan came in with a maid.

Old Madam Jiang waited for Jiang Xuan, who walked in with a smile on her face, gritted her teeth and said, "What are you doing?" ”

Jiang Xuan looked at Mama Shen and said a little innocently, "Why is the old lady's emotions so excited? ”

Mama Shen didn't dare to speak, but just smiled awkwardly.

Jiang Xuan raised his chin at Biyun, "Take Mama Shen down to rest for a while, I'll serve the old lady here." ”

Mama Shen didn't want to go out, but she also knew that the old lady was no longer good, and she didn't know when she would die, and if she wanted to live, she could only listen to Jiang Xuan.

When Mrs. Jiang heard that Mama Shen was going out, she became more and more excited.

But before she could say anything, Mama Shen had already followed Biyun out.

At this point, it was all done by the old lady herself.

In any case, a person is always responsible for his actions.

When she did those things regardless of the will of her children and grandchildren, she was forcing the Jiang family to oppose her.

There is no way, maybe people are selfish. She is just a subordinate, and she also has her own family to protect.

The door was closed, Biyun handed Shen Mama to Bilan, and when she saw Biyun, the guards outside the door immediately turned their heads away, as if they were about to doze off.

Biyun looked up at the roof, there should be no one on it, she bent down and picked up a small pebble, checked it, and bounced towards the roof, very good, the roof was quiet.

Inside, Old Madam Jiang shrunk tightly into a ball, "What do you want to do?" I'm your grandmother! Where's your father, let him come to me! Do you think this will trap me?

Is he still human? ”

Jiang Xuan sat down on the edge of her bed, didn't speak, only looked at her face up close,

"Shouldn't you know what I'm doing here? Grandmother, shall we settle the account for how my mother died? ”

"It's said that it comes from the heart, and this viciousness in your eyes is really disgusting.

Grandmother, you have a bright future, but what kind of path have you taken? ”

Old Madam Jiang was so stimulated that her face was hideous, and she said angrily, "You dare to ridicule me like this, you slut, a slut like Lin Tang." ”

Jiang Xuan looked at her calmly, "I have your blood on me, if I am a slut, then you are not also a slut?"

The reason why a person is a human being is because he knows honesty and shame, and you can't be called a human being at all if you kill your daughter-in-law or your husband.

You think that things are done seamlessly, and you can hide from the world, but the reason is clear, and you are negligent but not leaky, and you will end up like this after all. ”

Old Madam Jiang's expression was distorted, and although she tried her best to restrain herself, the muscles on her face still trembled.

"I don't believe in the truth of God."

"If there is heavenly reason, then, why would I marry the old thing, I won't suffer so much."

"I won't let Lin Tang take away my son, and let my son deprive me of the remaining years."

She was sneering, mocking, her loose muscles trembling.

Everyone thinks that Jiang Lao is a good thing, although he was romantic when he was young, but later he cultivated his mind.

But who would have known that that old thing turned out to be a man and woman who could eat it? Where is his cultivation of the mind, it is clear that he has changed his goal.

For the sake of the child, she endured it, and every time the old thing touched her, she would be disgusted for three days without eating.

He pressed his filthy body against it, again and again, and again and again, night after night.

However, he still wants to blackmail her, so if he doesn't die, who will die?

She worked so hard to watch her three children grow up, and she was able to be an old feudal monarch, but Lin Tang robbed her son.

She didn't allow such a thing to happen.

No way.

No way.

She knew that there was a problem with the origin of the green willow, but she still brought it home, she deliberately instructed her to drug Lin Tang, give birth to a freak, and deliberately let the green willow stimulate Lin Tang on the delivery bed.

Lin Tang is dead, and there will be no one to rob her of her son.

Xu likes the boss, how could she not know? She just deliberately pretended not to know, picked her over to play, and let her run into the boss from time to time.

Finally, the Xu family made a move, and Lin Tang also died.

But the son did not come back, and he went to the frontier for so many years.

Old Madam Jiang's facial muscles trembled for a while, and she said with a sneer,

"Your father didn't dare to come to me, so he sent you, didn't he? He wouldn't dare kill me, would he? He wants to kill me, he himself wants Ding Wei, and your brother, his career has just begun, and Ding Wei has been worried for three years...... Come back, and who will remember you?

And you, you're nineteen, and if you waste another three years, who else wants you? I'm afraid that no one even wants to be a steproom. ”

Old Madam Jiang looked at Jiang Xuan triumphantly, with a determined expression.

Jiang Xuan sneered, "Kill you? Why did I kill you? ”

"I'm not really interested in killing, but I'd love to keep you grinding slowly. Neither my father nor I will kill you, but from now on, you don't want to be an old feudal king, you will only live like a dead dog. ”

Old Madam Jiang said sharply, "Then what are you going to do with me?" ”

Jiang Xuanding whispered to her halfway, "You don't have to do anything, just tell the outside about your murder, your edict will be taken back by the imperial court, and no one in the world will be willing to look at you again."

You can only live in this Buddha hall for the rest of your life. Don't want to take another step.

Or, you could be exiled for thousands of miles.

If he died on the way to exile, don't you know, my father has already told the emperor everything, and the emperor has not issued a decree to reprimand my father.

Instead, stay in the middle and not send it.

's father is still the emperor's celebrity in the eyes of outsiders, and he is still hot.

You are the only one, and you can no longer be tainted with a little glory. ”

"All the people in the family are happy to see you in such a situation, and no one wants you to go out and meet people again.

You say, "Are you a failure?" ”

After Jiang Xuan said this, he turned around and walked out.

"Jiang Xuan!"

Old Madam Jiang screamed behind her, her face pale and collapsed in the corner of the bed.

Jiang Xuan walked out of the door, the sunlight outside the door was spilling through the leaves, looking at the sky, Jiang Xuan did not feel relieved.

Lu Liu turned out to be a member of the Xu family, so early, the Xu family actually buried a nail in the Jiang family?

Was it buried by Xu Shi in order to kick his mother away and move his position?

But according to what Mama Shen said, the person in charge is more than forty years old, and he is a person next to Uncle Xu, so it must not be something that Xu can instruct.

Therefore, that green willow is the chess piece that Uncle Xu buried in the Jiang family.

Why did he do all this?

What does this have to do with the dereliction of duty of the old lady he pinched in the armory?

At this moment, Bilan, who was guarding outside, came to report, "Girl, someone from the Xu family came to say that it was Uncle Xu who asked the girl to talk about it." ”

Jiang Xuan was surprised, Uncle Xu asked her to talk?

An old man, what do you say to her little girl?

"I'm a girl in the back house, even if Uncle Xu is an elder, it's not good to meet like this, right? Tell the person who came, let him go to his father, or the second uncle can do it. ”

Bilan looked at Jiang Xuan in embarrassment, "Someone said that the girl must go, and it is on the second floor of Wangjiang Tower." Uncle Xu is waiting for you there. ”

"And said you'd go after reading this."

Bilan gave Jiang Xuan a note, Jiang Xuan glanced at it, and his expression became cold, "Since that's the case, let's go." ”

When Jiang Xuan arrived, Uncle Xu was instructing the store to serve food.

Seeing Jiang Xuan, he beckoned and said, "Come and sit, it's presumptuous to invite you over like this." ”

Jiang Xuan stood still, "Since the old uncle knows that he is presumptuous, why do you want to do this." ”

Uncle Xu said with a smile, "My girls are pampered to grow up, it is inevitable that they will be a little willful, in the past, if my daughter has offended the girl, the old man hopes that the girl can look down and not look up, and give the old man a chance to make amends." ”

Jiang Xuan saw that he was getting to the point, thought about it, and said, "Old uncle said and laughed, you are an elder, how dare Jiang Xuan make amends?" ”

"The old man is a cheerful person, since he has said this, then let's talk about it."

"What Mrs. Xu did, the old uncle should be clear, but if I was a little cowardly and useless, or my father didn't take care of me, then I would not be able to sit here a long time ago."

"I can still sit in front of you and talk to you like this today, not because of Mrs. Xu's mercy, but because of my own efforts."

"So, in the opinion of the old uncle, I don't know how I should accept the old uncle's reparation?"

It's not the first time that Uncle Xu has confronted Jiang Xuan, he has already seen it last time in Jinling.

He muttered, "What about the girl's opinion?" ”

"The little girl is still very scared, I don't want to go through it again, if I can't severely punish the murderer, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well for the rest of my life.

If the old man has any good way to let me completely settle down from now on, I am very willing to listen to it. ”

Old Uncle Xu nodded, "Didn't you already decide to send the Xu family to the temple?" No one will ever bother you again. ”

Jiang Xuan smiled, "Not enough." ”

"What your idea is, everyone knows, after a while, the Xu family will probably come out again, right?"

"Unless, you take out what you have in your hand, so that I can feel at ease."

Frankly speaking, no matter where the Xu family goes, it will not end well, but Uncle Xu can regret it and not take it out, so why can't she regret it?

"The girl's conditions, will they be too harsh."

Old Uncle Xu put away his smile and his face condensed.

"If Uncle doesn't accept the conditions, we have nothing to talk about, just go to the official mansion and rely on the emperor's ruling.

Murder pays for life, and it is justified. ”

"Go to the official mansion?" Old Uncle Xu raised his lips, "This is obviously not a good idea. ”

"My family has nothing to do with it, the Xu family married into the Jiang family, and that is the Jiang family."

"So far, there is no news from the emperor's side, if my guess is right, your father should not have reported this matter to the past."

"In that case, why don't we go for the best?"

"Old man." Jiang Xuan said, "You should know better than anyone else what happened to my mother's life."

The emperor doesn't know about it yet, it's not simple, as long as he goes out of this door today, the emperor will know tomorrow. ”

She would definitely not say that in fact, the emperor already knew.

"The Xu family is indeed a good Jiang family, but in a blink of an eye, everyone will know what kind of person the Xu family's daughter is. Will the Xu family still be able to say that they are good in the future?

I thought that when I was in Jinling, everyone had reached a consensus, and you also made an appointment with my father to discuss, what?

Is the old uncle going back again? ”

Old Uncle Xu's eyes eased, and he raised his lips and said, "Indeed, it's just that the two didn't negotiate at that time, so I wanted to talk to the girl."

The old man also very much hopes that this matter will be over soon. ”

Jiang Xuan spread his hands, "Simple, take out the things in your hands, everything is peaceful in the world." ”

"I suppose you didn't negotiate with my father, that's why it's right?"

"What if not?" Old Uncle Xu looked at her with a smile.

Jiang Xuan raised his lips and bowed his head and said, "Old uncle, in fact, my family is not in a hurry, anyway, it is not us who suffers, death is not the way to solve things, life is better than death."

If the old man is willing to take it out, he will have someone go and tell my father. ”

"By the way, we can also stop by and talk about Green Willow, or other people's things."

The old uncle, who was still calm before, quietly changed his face, held the cup, and did not speak.

He would look for Jiang Xuan, but he was thinking that he was in Jinling that day, and Jiang Xuan's well-conditioned and eloquent appearance made him unable to forget.

Moreover, Jiang Chong still listened to Jiang Xuan's words very much, if he could convince Jiang Xuan, Jiang Chong would not be afraid, but he didn't expect Jiang Xuan to not enter the oil and salt.

Not only that, but it also involves the past.

"Old uncle, I think the emperor is also happy to know, why did you bury chess pieces in the Jiang family? Jiang Xu's two families are good friends.

Since you are here, what about the other officials? Or even in the palace? Do you have all the pieces you have buried?

What do you want to do? Peeping into the emperor's tracks, peeking into the harem?

Are you trying to rebel? ”

Jiang Xuan's red lips opened lightly, making Old Uncle Xu's face stiff.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly reversed, as silent as midnight.

Jiang Xuan stood up, "So much good wine and good food, the old uncle enjoys it slowly, and thinks about it slowly." The juniors took their leave. ”

"Wait."

After only two steps, Old Uncle Xu had already spoken.

He looked up, and his face was full of calmness that people couldn't fathom in front of him.

"I'll have someone give that evidence to your father, but don't regret it then."

Jiang Xuan said with a smile, "Whether we regret it or not, we will bear our choice." ”

Old Uncle Xu laughed in a low voice, "Okay, very good." ”

"It's just that I don't know about your old lady's murder, what should you do?

Didn't you say that murder pays for life? The old lady has more than one life in her hands, and the old lady of your family. ”

Old Uncle Xu's gaze shot at Jiang Xuan.

Jiang Xuan's heart jumped, and sure enough, the Jiang family still had the nails buried by Old Uncle Xu.
