Chapter 92: No regrets
Looking at Sun Mingzhe's dejected appearance, Bai Yanran was a little unbearable, but she was just helpless.
She could probably guess that the reason why Miss Qian did this was nothing more than for her father, who was now in prison.
Qian Shilang was originally a poor scholar, and he was only a third-class jinshi at the beginning of the middle school, and the Jingguan who was able to make a sesame seed in the household department still took out all his savings to make a point.
Later, he suddenly soared, but he just found out Ji Sihong's mind and entered the eyes of His Royal Highness King Jian. It's just that Ji Sihong has seen a lot of this kind of person, although he is a confidant, he is just an outcast who can be scapegotified at any time.
Bai Yanran sighed in her heart, although this Qian girl was filial, she was too impulsive, and she folded herself in without knowing what King Jian was doing.
For Ji Sihong, Qian Wan'er is just a fresh woman, since he pushed Qian Shilang out at the beginning, where is it so easy to get people back, let alone for a dispensable woman.
Qian Wan'er's move is really not very clever, but she has no regrets, and if she makes a mistake, she will lose all the games.
Bai Yanran sighed, and saw Su Xin on the side hooking her head and looking at something, and said in her mouth: "It seems that Mother Zou came just now, and she came to thank Miss Tong, and when I saw you talking to Dr. Sun, I left first." ”
Bai Yanran nodded, and didn't think much about it.
Bai Yanran expected it to be good, and the next day, Qian Shilang committed suicide in prison.
He didn't dare to say anything until he died, because he knew that he was in danger. In order to suffer less crimes, and to make the family feel better, he finally died in prison.
Qian Wan'er was in the palace of Jianwang, and the day she learned the news was the day of her father's funeral. Concubine Song was soft-hearted and asked her to send her back to her father for the last ride, but it was a different situation when she returned to the Qian family.
On weekdays, her father's favorite aunt took advantage of her mother's serious illness and the old housekeeper was in a hurry to take care of the funeral, and ran away with the adulterer with most of the family's money, but left behind her infant brother.
Seeing that the Qian family was about to arrive, the people who were active were also afraid of being implicated, so they ran away one by one, and the old housekeeper couldn't stop them. Now there is only a devastated Qian Mansion left, and four younger brothers and sisters are in a mess.
Qian Wan'er was not in a hurry to return to the palace, and she had to take care of her seriously ill mother after finishing her father's funeral. The front of my father's mourning hall was empty, and there was not even a person to mourn, and the Qian family seemed to have become a mess, and no one wanted to come over and get dirty.
When she was picked up by the carriage of the palace after the first seven years, Qian Wan'er was full of hatred in her heart. It is not only to Ji Sihong, who single-handedly killed his father, but also to Bai Yueyu, who pushed herself closer to the fire pit, with a dagger hidden in her sleeve, full of grief and hatred.
However, unfortunately, Concubine Song was not feeling well, Ji Sihong went to her yard and saw no one, so Qian Wan'er went to find Bai Yueyu first.
At that time, Bai Yueyu was in a good mood, although she couldn't go to Ji'an Hall to find Sun Mingzhe now because she was pregnant, but Cai Qing could go out to inquire about some news.
Knowing that Sun Mingzhe had already known the news of Qian Wan'er, Bai Yueyu was inexplicably happy, and even had a good face for Qian Wan'er.
Qian Wan'er's eyes, which fell on this appearance at this moment, were naturally even more dazzling, she closed her eyes and grabbed the dagger and stabbed at Bai Yueyu.
It's just that she, a young lady raised in the boudoir, understands this, and her eyes are closed, and the blade is unexpectedly crooked.
Bai Yueyu was defenseless, only felt a cold light flashing in front of her, and along with the pain on her arm, there were splashes of blood. Cai Qing exclaimed in surprise and subconsciously hid away, and Bai Yueyu was also frightened, dodging everywhere in embarrassment.
It wasn't until Cai Qing hugged Qian Wan'er from behind under Bai Yueyu's scolding that Qian Wan'er's strength was naturally not as good as Cai Qing, who had worked since childhood, that this farce was over.
Bai Yueyu looked at Qian Wan'er who looked like she was crazy, and snatched the dagger in her hand in shock, then she made up her mind, and then slapped Qian Wan'er fiercely, scolding: "You dare to use a knife in the palace, do you want to die!" ”
Who knew that Qian Wan'er was not afraid, she only glared at her viciously, and said with red eyes: "You lied to me, you clearly said that as long as I and I become the prince's person, the prince will definitely not ignore my father because of his feelings." But ......"
Before she finished speaking, she was coldly interrupted by Bai Yueyu: "Your father committed suicide in prison in fear of sin, and he can be buried after death, and he has not affected the family." If it weren't for the prince's notice, do you think your Qian family would have escaped such a heinous crime? ”
Qian Wan'er was originally a gentle-hearted official lady, where did she understand the pickles, otherwise she would not have been coaxed by Bai Yueyu to give her body to Ji Sihong in a few words. Now that I hear this, I can't tell whether it's true or false for a while, and I'm stunned in place.
Bai Yueyu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her like this, and continued with a cold and arrogant expression: "I want to come to Qian Shilang for the sake of his family, his sin is not light, and it is impossible to get out of it with his whole body." Always plan for the living, rather than being tortured in prison, it is better to die cleanly, and not to affect the family. ”
Qian Wan'er thought of her father's heartache again, but she couldn't say anything.
Everyone said that her father was a heinous crime, and he was innocent, and even she didn't know how to defend him. Even though her father is indeed not a good official, even if her father was not good to her during his lifetime, it is her father in the end.
Now that his father is dead, the Qian family is also scattered.
Bai Yueyu still said in her ear: "Now that the lights are out, this matter will be revealed." But your mother is still sick in bed, and there are a group of younger siblings waiting for you to feed. In the future, you will serve the prince well, as long as the prince is happy, your family will naturally have no worries about food and clothing. ”
Qian Wan'er's heart sank all the way, because Bai Yueyu was right, now she is the only support in the family, if something happens to her, what will her mother and younger siblings do?
When Cai Qing let go, Qian Wan'er sat on the ground as if she had been drawn to the soul, and there was no longer the former look in her eyes. She closed her eyes in despair, not daring to look forward to anything else.
The case of the king dragged on for too long, and although the case was closed in the end, the emperor's golden words naturally could not be ignored.
Since King Jian's punishment was punished, everyone knew that the matter was over, and the death of a small household servant did not set off any waves. Especially the big wedding of His Royal Highness King An is imminent, and it is completely submerged in it.
To say that the most concerned ones today are the Anwang Mansion and the Bai family, and the Bai family has the Qi family, the main mother, up and down. King An's Mansion is all thanks to the old housekeeper Zhu Yong's saddle, and he is really busy, but the prince of his family is still uneasy.
"These corners have been wiped clean, and the prince's wedding day is full of distinguished guests, so I will tighten your skin carefully."
"This, this, this, these flowers are about to bloom, why are they still here, why don't you let the flower room send fresh ones."
"My God, these chickens and ducks are not taken care of, if you let these animals run ahead, you will lick the ground for me!"
Zhu Yong looked back and forth in the house with a big belly, and his cuffs were wet with sweat on his forehead, and he still felt that he was not satisfied anywhere. I thought that these rough and clumsy subordinates were just underbeaten, and if they were to whip them a few times, they would be diligent.
The shed where the chickens and ducks were locked was next to Ma Liu, and when he heard his voice, a young man who was sleeping lazily next to Ma Lu was awakened, and he ran over and said, "Steward Zhu, why are you here?" Oh, these animals stink, please come here, but don't smoke you. ”
Zhu Yong happened to be tired, and sat on a stone bench in the shade of a tree not far away, and the young man immediately served tea diligently. Zhu Yong only took a sip and spit it out, scolding: "Dasheng, you rabbit cub, you dare to bring me this pot water, you are tired of it!" ”
The young man named Dasheng was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and he looked good, but he didn't look like an honest man with a ruffian on his body.
Dasheng caught the cup that Zhu Yong had fallen, and said with a hippie smile: "Steward Zhu is angry, the little one is a car driver, and naturally there are only these coarse teas in the house." If you are valued by the king, naturally all good things will be rewarded to your house. ”
Zhu Yong was a lot more relieved when he heard this, and began to boast again: "That's natural, I am an old man in the Tong family in the past, and after the prince built the mansion, the queen mother specially assigned to the palace as a housekeeper, and naturally I am the prince's most trusted confidant."
Don't look at the stuffy gourd in the ancient recipe and follow the prince's ass all day long, in fact, the prince still guards me if he has anything. Otherwise, if you look at such a big thing as getting married, you will spend so many days on Gu Fang, obviously not trusting him and not letting him interfere. ”
Dasheng is a clever ghost, so he naturally hurriedly followed his words and said: "That's that, when it comes to the prince's henchman, the first one is naturally you." How long have you been with the prince, and the Gu Fang guards have only been here for a few years, so naturally they can't compare with you. ”
He rolled his eyes, put down the cup, sat on the side and fanned the wind and said, "Steward Zhu, you are naturally relieved to do things, why do you have to pick and choose." ”
Zhu Yong snorted coldly, and said after a while: "You don't know, although our princess is not from a famous family, she is a skillful person, otherwise how can we let our prince get married willingly." ”
He looked left and right, motioned for Dasheng to come over and listen, and then lowered his voice and continued: "Didn't you hear those crazy words outside? For a while, it was the fox and the fake tiger that beat the Miss Lan family, and for a while, it was to climb the high branches and regret the marriage.
is such a woman, but our prince is like an evil spirit, and he is very precious, and he told me to handle it well, and I must satisfy the princess. ”
Seeing that Dasheng couldn't help nodding, Zhu Yong sat up straight with satisfaction, and pretended to sigh: "I'm afraid this princess is not easy to get along with, and our good days will come to an end." On the day of the wedding, there is no fault in the house, in case the princess finds trouble, it is not as simple as deducting the monthly money, and a board is definitely indispensable. ”
Seeing that Da Sheng shrunk his neck, but his eyes were completely impatient, Zhu Yong showed a meaningful smile.
