Chapter 167: The Fourth Aunt Mother and Daughter
The little eunuch who was waiting close to him saw that the third prince's face was not very good, and asked cautiously: "Master, is it the next time to go back to the house or?" β
"You guys go to wait outside the palace first, I'll go out later!"
"Yes!"
The third prince walked alone in the palace, and the palace people passing by paused and saluted him, which was an honor that a prince deserved, but this was not the case ten years ago.
His biological mother was just a lowly slave girl, who was selected by the former queen from the slave to serve by her side, it is said that it was because her father and the former queen were angry and spoiled her, and her stomach was angry, and she suddenly broke the dragon species.
It's just that after that time, my father completely forgot about her, and even forgot the existence of his own prince, his mother didn't even have the title of a talented person, and he was the most embarrassing existence in the palace.
Or the first queen has a good heart, thinking about the master and servant, often taking care of their mother and son, and scolding those evil slaves who bully the master, she pitied her mother, and finally gave her a title.
At that time, he was the second brother when he was most envious, and the age difference between him and the eldest brother was very big, at that time he basically rarely appeared in the palace, all he could hear was the legend about him again and again, but the second brother was the same age as him, and his biological mother was the noble Qi Guifei, who was loved by thousands of people, an arrogant and generous teenager.
The turning point of things happened ten years ago, although he already knew that the capital was already bloody at that time, but he lacked a way to understand the outside world, and he didn't know much about many things, until his father, the man he respected and feared, took his hand and sent him to the queen, of course, the queen at this time has been replaced by a younger woman.
He said, "He will be your queen mother from now on." β
He gladly accepted, he hated the lowly blood and miserable childhood that his biological mother had brought him, and he knew that he would have everything he wanted in the future.
He thought that his father cultivated him and loved him, and even intended to pass the throne to him, knowing that the second child was called back from the border pass, he knew that he was just a pawn of his father, and the bloody example of the last son was in front of him, and now he would not let any of his sons dominate, whether it was him or the second child, it was just a bargaining chip for his balance.
It's just that the arrow is on the bow, there is no turning back, although the front is unknown, but turning back must be hell.
He sometimes thinks that the second child is very ridiculous, in the weird situation, sometimes he has such a naΓ―ve idea, if he wants to get what he wants, he must do whatever he wants, and he will take the initiative to avoid disputes with himself if everyone is afraid, and he has done a good job in this regard, because everyone believes that he is a madman, a madman who has no bottom line and would rather be destroyed.
He sometimes envies the second child, because the noble birth reveals that Zhao Ling and Zhao Qian are assisted by their side, they are brothers who grew up together, and he can't plug in. When they were playing one by one, he was just a coward who was bullied by the eunuchs.
Unconsciously, he walked to the front of a calm and dilapidated palace, frowned slightly, but had no intention of going in, gently pursed his lips, glanced inside with a deep gaze, and then turned to leave.
"Third Highness?" An old woman called out in surprise, she had taken care of Zhao Ye for a while when he was young, and later served his biological mother, "Old slave, see Third Highness!" Won't the Third Highness go in and sit down? The master is looking forward to seeing His Highness day and night! β
"Take good care of her!" Zhao Ye took out a bag of silver and gave it to the old woman, and turned around and left without hesitation.
The old woman sighed silently, how could this heart knot be untied if it was untied?
Inside the Jiang family manor.
"What do you say? Did the master really come to pick us up? The fourth aunt asked in disbelief.
The person who came just nodded expressionlessly: "Pack up your things and go back now!" β
Jiang Huiran shed tears even more excitedly, his father finally remembered them, he could finally leave this ghost place, stay away from those rude peasant women, and finally return to the Jiang family and the capital!
The mother and daughter hurriedly cleaned up, for fear that someone would regret it, so they simply packed up a few things before and returned to the capital with the people who came to pick them up. But what they didn't know was that shortly after they left, the house they were staying in was on fire, and the news that they had been burned to death would rush back to the capital before they did!
It took two days to return to the capital, but they did not return to Jiangfu but to a simple house.
"What kind of place is this? Why don't you just go home and let us live here? The fourth aunt asked suspiciously.
"You wait here first, and someone will come looking for you later!" The man who took them back to the capital said impatiently.
"What do you mean?" Jiang Huiran said angrily, "You are a subordinate, who gave you the courage to talk to us like this!" When I see Daddy, I want you to look good! Don't play tricks, let's go back to Daddy! β
"Huh!" The man sneered, "Let you wait here and wait here, so much nonsense from there!" Hurry up and go in, there are people here who are in charge of eating and drinking, and they have angered me, and I will be hungry for three days! β
The fourth aunt and Jiang Huiran finally reacted, this man was not ordered by Jiang Yuan to take them home, the fourth aunt rolled her eyes, gritted her teeth and asked, "It's Jiang Xiaoyu!" It was Jiang Xiaoyu who asked you to bring us here! What the hell is she trying to do! β
The fourth aunt's emotions finally became excited, and she rushed forward and grabbed the man's clothes and asked sharply, "It's not enough for her to harm our mother and daughter!" What does she want to do! What the hell does she want to do! β
The man pushed the fourth aunt to the ground, dusted off her clothes, sneered and said, "Don't think of yourself as the high-spirited Mrs. Kuo back then, it's better to be honest with me!" But I don't want to follow the old path of the eldest lady, so I am obedient! β
Of course, the fourth aunt knew the news of the eldest lady's suicide, and when she knew that even the eldest lady was forced to commit suicide by Jiang Xiaoyu, she finally accepted her fate, and took Jiang Huiran to hide away from the capital in fear, if it wasn't for Huiran's marriage, she wouldn't want to face Jiang Xiaoyu, but now the man's words confirmed that all this was arranged by Jiang Xiaoyu, which made her emotions collapse all of a sudden.
She sat on the ground and cried without an image: "What does she Jiang Xiaoyu want to do!" We've all been forced to the countryside by her, and she still won't let us go! β
Jiang Huiran immediately went to help her mother up and said, "Don't cry! Let's take a look at Jiang Xiaoyu first, what she wants to do! We didn't do anything, and I don't believe she dared to kill me, the daughter of Shangshu, for no reason! β
Jiang Huiran took a deep breath, looked at the man and said, "Let Jiang Xiaoyu come to see me, I'll wait for her here!" No matter what she wants to do, I'm not afraid! β
"She'll naturally come to see you when she's free, and before that, you just wait obediently, go in!" The man crossed his arms and said coldly, "If I speak, I may not be so polite!" β
"Mother, let's go in first!" The two women of them will naturally not be the opponents of these men, and there is no other way to face them except to be soft and obedient, and then think of other ways.
Mother and daughter helped each other into the courtyard, where there were several servants serving, and there was nothing uncomfortable except for someone watching.
Even so, the two of them were still apprehensive in their hearts, and they didn't know what Jiang Xiaoyu wanted to do!
It's just that from the beginning of the hope, thinking that they could finally start a new life, to now being crushed by reality their hopes, the gap during this period is enough to make people's hearts fall into the ice, one is Jiang Xiaoyu's ghost, one is Jiang Yuan's cold-blooded ruthlessness.
The fourth aunt has the bottom in her heart, her feelings tell her that she noticed that something was wrong when Jiang Xiaoyu showed a tough attitude at the beginning, not only did she just want revenge, she also wanted to return her mother's innocence, and her grandfather's innocence, and all of this was indispensable to herself, she would be a very critical part, not only would she not move herself, but she would come back to beg for herself!
The fourth aunt didn't wait long, in the evening, Jiang Xiaoyu arrived, she looked at Jiang Xiaoyu, whose temperament was becoming more and more cold, and sneered: "You really won't let go of our mother and daughter easily!" β
"It seems that you should also know where the irreconcilable contradictions between us are, right?" Jiang Xiaoyu said lightly.
Jiang Huiran waited for Jiang Xiaoyu fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "Even if I bullied you when you were young, but these days, our mother and daughter have not been miserable enough by you?" What exactly do you want? You'll let us go if we die! β
"In fact, you're dead!" Jiang Xiaoyu said lightly, "Just yesterday, the news that you were burned to death has been transmitted back to Jiangfu, and your corpses will also be transported back to the capital in the next few days!" β
"What!" Jiang Huiran's face began to panic, "What the hell are you talking nonsense!" We are obviously living well, why are we dying! What the hell did you do! β
"Your body is not dead, but your identity is already a dead person!" Jiang Xiaoyu said lightly, "In other words, even if you are locked up here for the rest of your life, no one will know who will look for two people who have died?" β
The green tendons on Jiang Huiran's forehead were exposed, her eyes were red and she stared at Jiang Xiaoyu, and shouted hysterically: "Jiang Xiaoyu, why are we not sharing the sky with you, why are you forcing us into such a situation!" If you want to kill us, I will never let you do it, I will kill you! I'm going to kill you! β
