Chapter 1: When Cardamom is Reborn
In the middle of summer, the cicadas chirp and the willow leaves sway gently.
Just after noon, it's a good time to take a break.
The masters went back to their rooms to rest, and the maids guarding the door also quietly leaned against the shade and took a nap, and they didn't know what kind of sweet dreams they were having with the sound of knowing.
The same is true of Qingdai, Rao is a young man and an old man, and he can't stand the warm wind in the afternoon, so he quietly took a nap.
"Bang Bang ......"
Suddenly, she was awakened by a noise in the room.
"Miss, are you okay......" Qing Dai asked respectfully in the house, as the eldest maid of the Military Marquis Mansion, although she was worried about the situation in the house, she didn't dare to forget the rules.
"I'm fine......" a childish voice came from inside the room.
Hearing the familiar voice of the young lady coming from the house, Qing Dai's worries were relieved a lot.
It's just that...... How does Qing Dai think that today's young lady's voice has a little more majesty that only Hou Ye has?
At this time, inside the house
At the front of the beautiful dressing table sits a young girl in cardamom.
The makeup boxes that should have been neatly placed on the dressing table were scattered all over the ground, and the precious pearl hairpins were scattered all over the ground like worthless, which was the source of the sound.
The girl in front of the dressing table looked at herself in the bronze mirror in surprise, her jade-like flawless skin was a little red, like the eyebrows of a distant mountain, and a pair of smart eyes flashed with an unstoppable light.
It is the age when my family has a girl who has just grown up, and there is still a little childishness on her cheeks, like goose eggs but not so cute, long hair scattered around her waist like ink, accompanied by a goose yellow bedclothes, like budding stamens.
People can't help but imagine what kind of beauty this face will be after a few years.
It's just that such a beauty turned a blind eye to the luxurious pearl hairpin all over the ground, but was injured by an ordinary silver hairpin, which made people feel distressed, but fortunately, the hairpin body was flat and blunt, and the wound was not deep.
The tingling pain in his hand brought Xie Jin back to consciousness.
She's reborn!
returned to the time when the war was not burned, my father and brother were still there, and my reputation was not ruined.
Although the silver hairpin in her hand is the most inconspicuous one in the makeup box, it is the only ornament she had when she was dying in her previous life.
The Xie family, who has been on the border for generations, is the only military residence of the first emperor himself, and has the most outstanding military exploits of the Great Qin Dynasty.
Xie Jin's father was a respected first-class military candidate, and Xie Jin's eldest brother was the youngest hussar general.
And she is also the most outstanding lady in the imperial city, which is enviable.
Xie Jin never thought that she would end up being calculated and ruined and died.
She slowly closed her eyes, recalling those cold days.
The Xie family is full of loyalty, generations of horses, and the border of the country.
At that time, the smoke rose again, and Xie Jin's father and brother led the troops to the battle.
Even though the male son of the Xie family has never been afraid of the horse leather shroud, when Xie Jin in the previous life received the bad news from his father and brother one after another, he was still in pain.
It's just that as a child of the Xie family, the border beacon fire has not subsided for a day, so she has no qualifications to shed tears.
The men in the Xie family's big house all died, and the second master of the Xie family took the juniors of the Xie family to the battlefield.
Although Xie Jin was familiar with the art of war under the education of her father and brother, she was married and it was inconvenient for her to dress up, so she handed over the tactics that her father and brother had discussed to Master Xie Er.
Although Xie Jin did not go on the expedition, he did not spare any effort in secret, made suggestions for the battle situation, worked hard, and became ill.
Finally, when the smoke faded, the army returned to the court.
The glory of the Xie family is still there, but it is the second master Xie who accepts the admiration of the people instead of the former Xie Houye.
Xie Jin silently supported the mourning hall for his father and brother, and kept vigil for his father and brother day and night.
On the eve of the funeral, she was framed for trying to betray her husband and steal in front of her father and brother.
Such shameless things were introduced to the palace that night.
The Son of Heaven was furious, and immediately suppressed the rumors with thunder, and also took away her status as a princess by a secret decree, and secretly ordered her to practice in the Xie family's nunnery to atone for her sins.
"I didn't expect that Sister Jin, who was glamorous in the past, would have such a plain moment......" Xu Ping'er looked at Xie Jin, who was dressed in plain clothes, and mocked.
Damn, why did Xie Jin fall to this point is still beautiful, it is distressing, Xu Ping'er thought hatefully.
Bah! No wonder Brother Shen, who seduced her, still misses her.
"Those who keep filial piety should be like this." Xie Jin said indifferently, his eyes swept over Xu Ping'er and fell on Zhu Pei beside her.
This should have been her personal maid, but now she has changed her master.
If it weren't for the personal service of Zhu Pei, how could she go to the small room next to the mourning hall alone, and was surrounded by Shen Huaiyue in the house, causing her reputation to be tarnished.
In the past few days, she has been trapped in the nunnery, and she has figured out that something is wrong.
I'm afraid that the Xie family has changed, otherwise she, as the concubine of the Xie family, was blocked in the house by a house slave she had never seen before, and there was nowhere to ask for help.
After being trapped for a few days, Xie Jin was even more worried about his frail mother, and he didn't know what was going on now.
Zhu Pei couldn't stand Xie Jin's gaze, and hid behind Xu Ping'er with a weak heart.
"Useless stuff." Looking at Zhu Pei's appearance, Xu Ping'er secretly slandered herself in her heart, but she smiled on her face, took Zhu Pei's hand and looked at Xie Jin and said, "Pei'er, what are you hiding, everyone will be good sisters in the future." ”
"Sister Jin is afraid that she doesn't know, Brother Shen has already accepted Pei'er, and when the funeral of this Xie Mansion is completed, he will officially give her the title of an aunt."
"Before the house is gone, my father and brother's bones are not cold, and you have done such a shameless thing. In vain, I treated each other sincerely, Xie Fu did everything to raise you white-eyed wolves! Xie Jin sneered indifferently.
For many years as a master and servant, Xie Jin's sharpness made Zhu Pei hide behind Xu Ping'er more and more.
"Go down." Looking at Zhu Pei's dodging appearance, Xu Ping'er was full of disgust, and wanted to take her to hit Xie Jin, but she didn't expect it to be so useless.
"Yes......" Zhu Pei retreated silently, Xu Ping'er's face was in full view, and a trace of resentment flashed silently in her eyes.
Xie Jinren is a phoenix, she is afraid in her heart, what is Xu Ping'er, she is from an ordinary lady, but like her, she is General Shen's aunt.
"Sister Jin, I'm afraid you're mistaken, now this is full of capital, who doesn't know, it's you who don't know shame. A married woman, in front of her father and brother, hooks up with her cousin, even if His Majesty wants to suppress it, this rumor can't be suppressed. Xu Ping'er said with a smile.
Seeing Xie Jin's face change color slightly, Xu Ping'er only felt refreshed in her heart, she had been pressed by Xie Jin, and finally regained some momentum.
The Xie family's big house is now exhausted, and she is still afraid of what Xie Jin will do.
"Oh, by the way, sister, I'm afraid you don't know yet, aunt, oh, no...... When Mrs. Xie heard the news, she was even more dying, and it was difficult for her to even get the soup. ”
"Xu Ping'er, if you dare to touch my mother, I will let you die a good death."
When Xie Jin heard this, he changed color even more, and grabbed Xu Ping'er's wrist hard.
In the end, it was the daughter of Jiangmen, Rao is sick body, and it also made Xu Ping'er feel pain in her wrist.
It's just that he hasn't eaten rice or water for a few days, but Xie Jin was still pushed hard by Xu Ping'er, and he could only support his body weakly......
Xu Ping'er touched her red and swollen wrist and said viciously: "It's not good to die...... Why are you going to make me die a bad death......"
"Do you think you are still the high-ranking daughter of the Xie family, the prince and concubine, what I don't like the most is your high-minded appearance. Your father and brother are dead. Your current reputation is ruined, and the royal family can't wait to have you as a daughter-in-law. Now you can't even get out of this nunnery. ”
As she spoke, Xu Ping'er held Xie Jin's chin.
"It's just that this face is really beautiful, even if you are so down-and-out, a man who can hook you will be fascinated by you......"
"Brother Shen said, if you follow him, you will change your identity, and you will be prosperous and rich in this mansion, with fine clothes and food, except for not being able to see people, nothing will lack you. You don't have to live here in the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha to live this ......."
"You...... Not...... Shame ......"
Xie Jinqi's face turned red, they actually wanted her to be the daughter of the Xie family, and the princess of Daqin was like a girl in the Gaomen Mansion as an unsightly plaything in the Gaomen Mansion.
Looking at the angry Xie Jin, Xu Ping'er smiled even brighter, and it was so good to trample Xie Jin under her feet.
"We don't have ...... Shame ......on you, Sister Jin is afraid that you have forgotten that you fell in love with Brother Shen at the beginning, and even did not hesitate to ruin the marriage contract since childhood, but it was all over the capital. If there is no such antecedent, how can the current structure be so smooth. ”
"Sister Jin, you didn't expect it, your eldest brother Shen didn't marry you at the beginning. Now, with Second Master Xie having meritorious service in protecting the country, the young general has a family and a room, but he wants to taste you. ”
"It's me who is blind and doesn't see the black heart of your dog man and woman...... Even if I die, I won't let you succeed......"
"Dead? Sister Jin, don't you know the methods of the powerful family...... How easy it is to want to die, not to mention how can Brother Shen be willing to ......"
"Since it is a family disgrace, I will give my second uncle, and after the funeral, I went with my father and brother, and I have fulfilled the reputation of the Xie family......"
"Second master, Sister Jin, have you ever thought about the fact that Hou Ye Xie and Gongzi Xie have always been brave, why did the whole army be wiped out in the Battle of Pishan......
"Is it ......?"
That traitor is the second uncle!
Looking at Xie Jin's face, Xu Ping'er knew that she had figured out all the joints.
"Jin'er really deserves to be the daughter of the Xie family, and she can see through it at all. That's right, it was Brother Shen and Second Master Xie who teamed up to leak the eldest uncle's strategy......"
"I also want to thank Gongzi a lot, that is, Chi Lu, who was ambushed and killed the god general of Yan Kingdom desperately. It has made the war behind Brother Shen much easier, and with the tips you gave me, I have today's military exploits. ”
"It's just a woman, Brother Shen wants it, how can Second Master Xie not give it to ......"
"Why...... Father has always treated the second uncle so well......"
Xie Jin, who knew the truth, burst into tears, her father and brother who admired her the most, did not lose to the iron cavalry of the enemy country, but died from the butcher's knife of her relatives.
"Why! Just because the big house will not be extinguished for a day, the rest of the Xie family will never have the day to come out, and this halo and glory should also change owners! ”
"When, when, when......"
Suddenly, the death knell sounded, and it was the mother of the Xie family who died.
"Mother's ......"
Xie Jin sprayed a mouthful of blood on Xu Ping'er's face and fainted.
