Chapter 10: One Corpse, Two Lives
Yes?
Hearing that the old woman's daughter actually died at the hands of Mrs. Jing, Jing Changfa was taken aback.
At the same time, he also understood why the old woman in front of him was hostile to the masters of Jingfu.
There is no need for Jing Changfa to ask, the old woman has already opened her mouth to tell the story, "My daughter was a concubine of the old marquis Jing before her death, you can see from the portrait how beautiful my daughter was back then, because of her beauty, her personality is well-behaved and obedient, dignified and generous, virtuous and considerate, so she was favored by the old marquis Jing."
In the third year of entering Jingfu, my daughter was finally pregnant with the flesh and blood of the old marquis of Jing. ”
Jing Changfa glanced at the girl in the portrait, and secretly thought in his heart, this woman is beautiful, but it is definitely not dignified and generous, it is a bit of a fox, and the taste of red face and trouble.
"I thought that the flesh and blood of the old marquis Jing had finally come out, but who would have thought that it was because of this child that my daughter was killed!" The old woman couldn't control her emotions again, her face was sad, and the depths of her eyes were full of resentment.
"Mrs. Jing secretly moved?" Jing Changfa asked tentatively.
"Yes, it's that vicious old thing!" The old woman said hatefully: "She is worried that my daughter is already favored by the old marquis, if she fights for her stomach and gets a man in one fell swoop, the old marquis will divorce her and straighten my daughter, so my daughter who secretly killed her stumbled and slipped into the small lake in the backyard of Jingfu, and finally died with two corpses." ”
Jing Changfa was a little creepy when he heard this.
The descendants of the Jing clan have only had frequent contacts with Jingfu in recent years, and Jing Changfa had never come to Jingfu when the old marquis Jing was still there, so he couldn't have imagined that Mrs. Jing was so ruthless back then.
In recent years, Mrs. Jing has given him the impression of being graceful and luxurious, knowledgeable and courteous, elegant and dignified, with a slight majesty under her kind and kind face.
has never lived in a wealthy family, Jing Changfa does not understand the truth that once he enters the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea.
I don't know that since ancient times, there have been many wealthy families, and behind the luxury and glamour, there are endless intrigues and traps.
At this moment, Jing Changfa, who had never seen anything in the world, was frightened and retreated a little.
He had always thought that Mrs. Jing was a sheep, but he didn't want to know today that Mrs. Jing was a tiger at all!
"Scared?"
The old woman suddenly turned around and looked at Jing Changfa.
Jing Changfa lowered his head and was silent.
"Even if you're scared now and want to leave, it's too late." The old woman shook her head.
Jing Changfa was stunned, "weishenme? ”
"Do you think that even I can see through your mind of wanting to occupy the Jingfu family's wealth, and that old lady Jing will not be able to see through it?" The old woman sneered, "You can only cooperate with me now, if you succeed, you can still have a way to live, otherwise I am afraid that if you leave Jingfu and go home, you will encounter bandits who have been bought by some people, and your head will be cut off and you will end up in a different place!" ”
"She, she's really that ruthless?" Jing Changfa was frightened.
"The master of Jingfu, there is no one who is not ruthless." The old woman said hatefully: "Old Marquis Jing was stationed on the border of the Southern Barbarians for the imperial court to guard the frontier, and he often slashed and killed foreign people, because the killing was too serious and notorious, he was called a head-killing general by the locals.
When the son of the old lady Jing grew up, he personally cut off the heads of more than 10,000 people in my Great Qi Dynasty in Northern Xinjiang, and was later nicknamed General Tu, and his name can stop children crying at night.
You say, if Old Lady Jing's heart is not ruthless enough, how can she give birth to such a vicious cub? ”
Jing Changfa knew a little about Jingfu's past, and when he first came to Jingfu, he was also frightened by Jingfu's notoriety, until he had more contacts and a long time, he became more and more unable to control his greed for all the property of Jingfu.
At this time, Jing Changfa, who was frightened by the words, even his legs began to tremble, in the final analysis, he was just an old man from the mountains who came out of a small county town.
On weekdays, there are people who oppress their clansmen by virtue of their seniority, rob people of money and farmland, but kill people...... But he didn't dare.
"So you can only survive now if you cooperate with me."
The old woman was frightened when she saw Jing Changfa, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, although she was telling the truth, but she also took it out of context, blurring the truth, and was deliberately scaring Jing Changfa, otherwise the old man in front of her was afraid that Mrs. Jing would choose to retreat, where would she go to find someone to cooperate with and deal with several masters of Jing Mansion together?
Jing Changfa is an old woman who can't look down on her, she likes Jing Changfa's surname Jing!
This identity is a dead end for Jingfu, who has only one man.
As long as Jing Jianglong, who has been sick and weak for many years, is killed, then Jing Changfa can use his identity to force Mrs. Jing to live with the children in her stepfamily.
The old woman didn't dare to underestimate Mrs. Jing, and she knew that it was easy to assassinate Jing Jianglong, but it was extremely difficult to secretly kill Mrs. Jing to avenge her dead daughter and poor grandson who didn't come and was born.
That's why I want to cooperate with Jing Changfa, after Jing Jianglong's death, Mrs. Jing will succeed the children of the clan to Jing Mansion, and when the child grows up, she will immediately take advantage of the situation to seize power, and then she can stand up clearly, so that Mrs. Jing can't survive, can't die!
"Although it is dangerous, the benefits are great, if you can occupy all the property of Jingfu, you will be able to have money that you will not be able to spend in ten lifetimes." After deliberately scaring her, the old woman began to tempt with money again, "As the saying goes, people die for money, birds die for food, and wealth is in danger!" ”
"Okay, I promise to work with you."
Jing Changfa was already frightened by the old woman, and thought that there was no way out, coupled with the temptation of money, he gritted his teeth and agreed, and then he was afraid that he would suffer a loss in the future, so he asked, "After the matter is completed, how to divide it?" ”
"I have only given birth to one daughter in my life, no son, and I am old, half of my feet have been buried in the soil, what do I want so much money for?" The old woman shook her head and said, "My purpose is to avenge my daughter!"
In the future, after helping you get all the property of Jingfu, you only need to make the decision for me, and force the old lady Jing to never have peace, and the more miserable the life, the better.
I still have some money, but it would be better if you could give me a Zhuangzi to settle in. ”
"No problem!" Jing Fachang originally thought that the other party would share the Jingfu family property with him equally, and even ask for more strongly, but he didn't think that what the other party cared about was not money at all, but revenge, he was overjoyed and immediately agreed.
After that, the two began to discuss cooperation.
Jing Changfa only needs to make a step-by-step pressure to let Mrs. Jing choose which child to pass as soon as possible.
The old woman bought a lot of people in Jingfu, and she was responsible for dealing with Jingjianglong.
As long as Jing Jianglong dies and there is no man in Jing Mansion, then Jing Changfa can use the identity of the Jing clan to coerce openly and honestly, which can be regarded as a conspiracy, even if Mrs. Jing is smart and has the means, she can only choose to compromise in the end.
The two of them were chatting in the house, not noticing that there was someone listening to the wall at the back of the house.
Hearing this, the vague figure hidden crept away, walked to the wall of the small courtyard, took out a bronze medal from his sleeve and threw it out of the partition wall.
There were people guarding outside the wall, and without waiting for the bronze medal to land, they immediately rushed out to catch the bronze medal, and then quickly disappeared into the night.
A moment later, the door opened, and Jing Changfa walked out excitedly.
When the old woman reached the door, she turned back.
The mother-in-law who guarded the door left with her long hair, and then closed the door of the small courtyard again.
The girl who had taken the lantern first came out at this time and looked at the janitor.
"Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao, my mother will definitely help you avenge this time, so that the old woman will lose everything, and she can't survive, she can't die!" In the main hall, the old woman tilted her head and stared blankly at the appearance of her daughter in the portrait, and only after a while did she withdraw her gaze and move to the Buddha statue.
Stretching out his shriveled right hand, he took out a bloodshot rag doll covered in embroidery needles from behind the Buddha statue.
Seeing the rag doll, the old woman's expression immediately became excited, and she reached out and took out a needle awl from her sleeve, which stabbed the rag doll's head hard!
The long needle awl pierced the rag doll's head in an instant.
"Li Xiangqin, I want your life!"
The old woman's voice was mixed with unforgettable hatred.
And Li Xiangqin is the name of Mrs. Jing.
A figure was moving quickly in the darkness, and after a while, he came to a courtyard, stretched out his hand, gently pushed open the hidden courtyard door, and dodged in.
This small courtyard is very large, there are many houses, and there are a few large trees in the empty place of the courtyard, and the figure comes to the windowsill of the largest bedroom with his hands lightly, and raises his hand and knocks gently.
"He agreed?" An old woman's voice came from inside.
"Yes."
"Wealth is innate, not yours, you shouldn't force it! I don't know how many people in this world have lost their lives because they coveted money that shouldn't belong to him. The old woman let out a long sigh and was silent for a while before she said, "Continue to watch." ”
"Yes." The figure turned away.
"Amitabha, I did something wrong back then, you can come to me for revenge, but you want to deal with my good grandson?"
The old woman sat in the unlit bedroom, muttering to herself with her head down.
After a while, he suddenly got up again.
In Jing Jianglong's small courtyard, after Yao's mother sent Jing Changfa away with a straight face, she immediately entered the house, she was worried that she had been persecuting the little young master and a few girls to round the house in the past few days, and her own young master vomited blood, and Jing Jianglong, who would be provoked, hated her in her heart.
I want to open my mouth daoqian.
Entering the bedroom, Yao's mother hurriedly came to the bed, her knees were weak, and she knelt down, "Little master, it's not good to be a slave and maid......"
"What are you doing here?" It's just that without waiting for Yao's mother to finish speaking, Jiang Long immediately sat up and helped him with his hands.
After combing through the memories of the original body, Jiang Long could only be sure that there were two people in the Jing Mansion who were definitely trustworthy.
One is Mrs. Jing, who is the grandmother of the original body, so naturally she will not poison the original body.
And the other one is the original nurse, Yao's mother.
This Yao's mother pulled the original body with one hand, which was from the bottom of her heart, and she was absolutely loyal to Jingfu.
Jiang Long wanted to hide in the dark to find clues, but this body was weak and sick and couldn't investigate it himself, so he had to find a helper.
Mrs. Jing cares too much about her original body, that is, her current self, and after learning that someone wants to poison and assassinate herself, she is afraid that she will be furious and mobilize the whole house to investigate carefully, which will not only violate her original intention.
And it is very likely to scare the people in the shadows away and escape, after all, if there is really a murderer, the other party is really hiding very deeply.
It's not so easy to figure out!
Excluding Mrs. Jing, the only thing Jiang Long can absolutely believe in is Mother Yao.
Of course, he stretched out his hand to help Yao's mother, and he seemed very respectful, not because he was useful to Yao's mother's place, but because the original body had always respected this nurse, especially after Jing's mother died, there was a strong relationship between the two that was not like family affection but better than family affection.
"You vomited blood...... it was the slave who forced you"
"You are also acting on the orders of the old lady." Jiang Long spoke to explain.
"The pressure on the old lady's shoulders is great, and she is also forced to be helpless."
"I know I'm not mad at you, nor am I angry with the old lady."
