Chapter 236: The Big Wedding (2)
This one was filled with angry voices, breaking the silence in the happy hall.
Shen Nianzhen suddenly stiffened under the hijab.
It's Princess Zhaohua, she's actually here!
Hasn't the queen already locked her up?
Shen Nian's heart was full of question marks, so he heard Rong Chen beside him say coldly: "Zhaohua, you are not in the palace to accompany the queen mother, what are you doing here?" Hurry up and go back, the second brother has a lot of them, so I don't care about you. ”
After speaking, he was given a look by the guards on the side.
Beiyang and Dongchen hurriedly stepped forward to stop them, and asked Princess Zhaohua to leave: "Princess, today is the day of the wedding of His Royal Highness the Second Prince and Miss Shen, this is the marriage given by His Majesty himself, please go back!" “
I almost told Zhaohua that this was the emperor's marriage, so she should stay where she was cool, don't make trouble here.
After all, Princess Zhaohua is a dignified princess, so she can't help but give her face.
Obviously, since Princess Zhaohua was able to sneak out of the heavily guarded palace today, and also blended into the lobby of this worship hall, it was clear that she was here to stir up trouble, how could she be sent away because of these three words? Hearing this, a sneer immediately appeared on her face, and she said loudly: "Second brother! You don't know the true face of this woman next to you! I have come today to save you! ”
"This palace doesn't need you to save it."
Rong Chen didn't want to say a word to her, and said coldly at the moment: "In the heart of this palace, reading is really the salvation of this palace." ”
"Hahaha!" Princess Zhaohua immediately burst into laughter when she heard this, as if she had heard some big joke, and the tears of laughter were about to flow down, and the guests around her all looked at this scene intently, bowing their heads and talking about it.
"Redemption? Second brother, you really open your eyes and pretend to be confused. Princess Zhaohua laughed enough, and then said sarcastically: "This bride next to you, the eldest lady of the Shen family, looks gentle and deferential and generous on the surface, but behind the scenes, she has a ruthless and ruthless villain face!" She was able to hide from everyone and quietly sell her cousin Shen Nianci of the same clan to a brothel! If it weren't for Princess Ben's accidental discovery of this, I'm afraid all of you would have been deceived! Let's talk about it, what qualifications does such a ruthless and cruel person have to marry my second brother? “
"Is this true?" The onlookers began to discuss.
"But...... Hasn't Second Miss Shen been expelled from the Shen family? And the person who sold her into the brothel was Lu Yiming, the prince of the former town of Beihou Mansion...... What is the matter with Miss Shen......"
Princess Zhaohua looked at the people around her, but she didn't get the expected reaction, a trace of anxiety flashed in her eyes, and she said loudly at the moment: "Everyone! You have all been deceived! Shen Nianci is the second lady of the Shen family, if it weren't for the commander of Shen and the eldest lady of Shen to speak, Lu Yiming was just a defeated prince of the Hou Mansion, helpless, how could he dare to sell Shen Nianci? This was originally the conspiracy of the Shen family! ”
"You talk nonsense!"
On the side, Dongchen finally couldn't help but shout: "Lu Yiming can't go on!" I didn't have money to see his mother, so I sold Miss Shen Er! What's going on with the Shen family! It was the Shen family who spent fifty taels of silver to redeem the person! ”
"Well said! You're finally admitting it! ”
Princess Zhaohua seemed to have finally caught Shen Nianzhen's handle, and laughed on the spot, laughing while saying proudly: "What about after your Shen family redeems people?" And where did it go? Didn't you send her to a prostitution house! It's just that it's sold farther away, and Shen Nianci is not allowed to stay in Shangjing, which will stain the faces of you sanctimonious people! ”
"And this kind of thing?" This news is new, and everyone has never heard of it, and they can't help but look at each other when they hear it.
"She's a princess, what she said can't be fake......"
Some people are already beginning to believe Princess Zhaohua's words.
"Someone! Bring people up! Princess Zhaohua looked around proudly, with a hint of smugness on her face, and slowly slapped her palm.
Soon, a group of people walked in from outside, and everyone gave way.
Two handmaidens supported an unkempt, ragged woman who walked in from outside, the woman bowed her head, her hair scattered to cover her eyebrows, but she seemed to be very weak, and she had to rely on the support of two handmaidens to walk in the whole time.
In front of the lobby, as soon as the two maidservants let go, the unkempt woman fell limply to the ground.
"Sure enough, it's that Miss Shen Er!"
At this time, countless people shouted in the hall, and everyone showed disbelief, no one expected that the dirty and messy woman in front of her, who looked extremely weak, would be the original Shen Nianci.
You must know that although the second miss of the Shen family is not as beautiful and generous as the eldest lady, she is famous for her pure beauty! At that time, there were still many people in Shangjing who took a fancy to this second lady......
Who would have thought that so much would happen later? It's really embarrassing that this Second Miss Shen ended up with such an ending in the end.
Looking carefully at Shen Nianci's shoulders, arms, and neck, there are a lot of whip marks and scars, it seems that she has suffered a lot during this time.
Could it be that she was really ransomed from the brothel by the Shen family and sold to a brothel further away?
Possibly!
A shameful girl like Shen Nianci is not unheard of in the major families in Beijing, once there is such a person who hurts the reputation of the family and harms the reputation of the whole clan, he will be secretly disposed of in the end, either he dies quietly, or he is sent to the family temple far away, and even worse, he is sold far away, as long as people don't return to Shangjing in this life, who will know about it?
If it weren't for Princess Zhaohua today, I'm afraid that this Shen Nianci and everyone wouldn't be able to see it!
I don't know where I died in the morning.
Everyone looked at Shen Nianci with great interest, speculating why she ended up like this, whether the Shen family really sold her.
Princess Zhaohua looked at everyone's expressions, and her eyes showed a hint of pride, and then, she coughed lightly, covered her mouth with her sleeve, and slowly spoke: "Nianci, you come to tell everyone, how you were sold to a brothel, don't be afraid, since this princess brought you here today, she is here to seek justice for you." ”
"Zhaohua! You're enough! ”
Rong Chen looked at her in a cold voice and said, "You really want to make trouble here and ruin my wedding?" ”
"Second brother, you have wronged me."
When Princess Zhaohua heard this, she said with a look of grievance and pity: "I'm just afraid that my second brother has been deceived, how can it be called wronged?" Moreover, if you don't argue clearly, if you don't investigate the matter, you don't want your princess to have such a vicious reputation as poisoning sisters of the same clan in the future, right? ”
said with a sarcastic smile.
Rong Chen clenched his fists angrily.
He has already warned and cleaned up the people who may come to make trouble today, and he has made arrangements early, but he never thought that the person who came to sabotage his wedding today would be Princess Zhaohua! Neither he nor Shen Nianzhen offended her!
Shen Nianzhen sighed slightly under the hijab.
She and Rong Chen didn't offend Zhaohua, but Zhaohua was infatuated with Shen Yunlan, but she couldn't be with him, so she hated her and the Shen family not once or twice.
This time, eighty percent still came to the Shen family.
"Your Highness, let her speak." Shen Nianzhen gently held Rong Chen's hand under the hijab, and said unhurriedly.
Originally, the bride in the auditorium was not able to speak, but now that there has been an accident, these can't be taken care of, Rong Chen nodded when he heard this, and said softly: "Okay!" ”
Immediately, he turned his head and glanced at Zhaohua with a cold face: "What kind of drama do you want to play, just hurry up, wait here to worship the church." ”
In fact, the church has already worshipped, and it is almost sent to the cave room.
But in this situation now, of course Shen Nianzhen can't go, as soon as she leaves, she is covered with mouths, and she can't speak clearly.
Shen Nianzhen's neck was sore to death under the heavy phoenix crown, and she wanted to go into the marriage room to rest, but at this moment she could only insist on staying.
Over there, Princess Zhaohua listened to Rong Chen's urging, and looked at the couple in front of her with affection through the hijab, a touch of jealousy crossed her eyes, and she snorted coldly at the moment: "Second brother, don't worry, you can see this woman's face clearly!" ”
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Shen Nianci.
Shen Nianci got the opportunity, and immediately got up from the ground weakly, with the scars on his body, he kowtowed to Rong Chen and the guests first, and then said with a sob: "Ladies, at the beginning, the little woman was indeed redeemed from the brothel by the people of the Shen family, and she lived in the Shen family for two days, at that time, the little woman thought that she had been out of the sea of suffering, but she didn't expect that soon my eldest sister went to find me, and she said to me with a look of disgust, I can't stay in Shangjing anymore, She gave me two paths, either die or leave Shangjing......"
"And then?" One of the onlookers asked quickly.
Rong Chen's eyes immediately looked at the lady who spoke, remembering her appearance.
It's inconvenient to clean up today, but he will definitely not let go of the people who dare to insult him and Shen Nianzhen today!
When the lady came into contact with Rong Chen's gaze, her neck immediately shrank in fright, and she didn't dare to speak anymore.
She's just watching the fun! There's nothing bad about it!
The people next to her had quietly moved away from her.
"I, naturally I don't want to die, but I don't want to leave Shangjing either......" Shen Nianci then said: "Later, my cousin told me that if I don't leave Shangjing, I can only die, and the little woman agreed. Unexpectedly, as soon as I left Beijing, she sold me into a brothel in Linzhou, which is not far from Beijing......"
As he spoke, he seemed to remember something unbearable from the past, and the whole person was full of excitement, and then he cried more and more.
"How did you meet the princess, according to you, who lived in the darkness of the brothel, who was beaten every day, and who was almost dying?" Rong Chen interrupted her coldly and said, "Her Royal Highness the princess of the Great Zhou, it is impossible to go to a small brothel on the border of Linzhou, far away from Shangjing, right?" What can a princess do in a brothel? Is there a beautiful young man there? ”
As soon as this sentence came out, some people laughed loudly.
Yes, how could a princess of a dignified country go to a brothel? What's more, it's still a brothel far away from Shangjing.
This woman looks pitiful, but what she says may not be true!
Could it be that she is here to slander the second prince and Miss Shen? And dragged Her Royal Highness the eldest princess into the water?
At this time, everyone's eyes looking at Shen Nianci were already full of suspicion.
"Didn't I meet Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Hearing this, Shen Nianci hurriedly explained: "I can't bear the beating in the brothel, I, I don't want to pick up customers, so I took advantage of the fact that the turtle and the bustard were not paying attention, and escaped from the brothel, the thugs of the brothel and the turtle chased closely behind, I, when I escaped, I accidentally knocked over the passing convoy, they were transporting lychees from Jiangnan to the eldest princess......"
"And then you're saved?" Someone in the crowd asked.
"Yes, the eldest princess is kind-hearted, and when she heard about the little woman, she was filled with righteous indignation and brought the little woman here to ask for an explanation." Shen Nianci said, and finally raised his head to look at the bride who was wearing a bright red wedding dress and covered with a red hijab and remained silent, and a thick color of jealousy flashed in her eyes.
Why should she stay away from Shangjing and die alone and bored, but Shen Nianzhen can marry beautifully! The person who married is still the second prince of the beautiful Jiyue!
She is not reconciled! She's coming back for revenge!
The princess gave her this opportunity, she would definitely not let Shen Nianzhen escape easily!
"Big sister, I, I'm also a girl from the Shen family, you, even if you hate me again, you shouldn't call me to death! I've already been to a brothel once, and I really don't want to live that life is worse than death......" Shen Nianci cried and complained.
This sentence is really powerful.
The guests, who originally knew more or less about the affairs of the Shen family, saw her sad and crying appearance, as well as the words of the eldest princess, as well as the half-truths and half-truths just now, and felt pity on the spot: "This is too pitiful, even if she makes a big mistake and can't stay in Shangjing anymore, let her go to the family temple to stay, or reward a bowl of poison, isn't it just right to die cleanly?" Why do you want to send people to a place like a brothel in a green house to fight? It's so unbelievable! ”
Well? Die cleanly?
Shen Nianci, who was already ready to be defended by everyone, almost bit his tongue when he heard this.
She looked at the expressions of everyone in the hall again, but saw that the nobles, the ladies, and the nobles present all looked at her with disdain.
Shen Nianci suddenly came to his senses.
No matter how aggrieved she was, no matter what Shen Nianzhen had done, in the eyes of these people, she was the damn one.
She robbed her sister's marriage, and later harmed the Zhenbei Hou Mansion and was sold into a brothel by Lu Yiming.
Therefore, no matter how pitiful Shen Nianci said, they would not sympathize.
In this way, he can only rely on Princess Zhaohua to get back a city, Shen Nianci immediately raised his eyes and looked at Zhaohua like a helper.
Zhaohua also had a sore face.
She originally thought that as long as she brought Shen Nianci to this wedding and exposed the things Shen Nianzhen had done in public, she would definitely be discredited and would never be able to marry the second prince again, but she didn't expect that these people would not react at all after listening to her words.
Zhaohua couldn't hold back any longer, glared at Shen Nianzhen angrily, and asked word by word: "Miss Shen!" Please give an explanation! No matter what Miss Shen Er has done, she is your sister! Why could you bear to pull her out of the fire pit and push her in with your own hands? How is this different from the filthy and lowly people who hurt her? ”
"I ......"
Shen Nianzhen took a step forward and was about to answer.
Suddenly, a shout came from outside the auditorium: "I sold her into a brothel!" It has nothing to do with the second princess! ”
This voice was rough and powerful, extremely low, the same as the abrupt voice of Princess Zhaohua just now, but the feeling it brought to people was not the same at all.
"Who? Who is it? Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this rough male voice, which was different from the woman, and they all turned around.
Only Shen Nianzhen under the hijab was full of emotion, it was Shen Yunqi! Shen Yunqi is here!
Rong Chen slowly turned his head on the side, and looked at the man who strode in from outside the auditorium with some surprise, his face was square, dark and shiny, his eyes were bright, and when he walked in, he was full of tigers and tigers under his feet, with a fierce momentum.
Most of the people in the auditorium didn't know him, and when they heard this, they bowed their heads and whispered: "Who is this person?" Why did it suddenly come out of nowhere? also admitted to selling Miss Shen Er? Who is he? “
Princess Zhaohua also looked at Shen Yunqi with a surprised expression, of course she didn't know him, but it didn't prevent her from recognizing Shen Yunqi's identity at a glance: "You are just a small nursery, what qualifications do you have to come here?" Still making a lot of noise here! Who are you! ”
"Then go down to Shen Yunqi, the eldest son of the second room of the Shen family." Shen Yunqi walked up to the main hall, saluted Rong Chen and Shen Nianzhen at the top, and also gave Princess Zhaohua a five-body gift.
"You...... Is it Shen Nianci's brother? When Princess Zhaohua heard this, her face changed slightly.
"Yes, I'm Shen Nianci's brother."
Shen Yunqi slowly stood up from the ground, turned his head to look at Shen Nianci, whose face had changed greatly since he appeared, and his body was shaky, and slowly spoke, and said with a sarcastic face: "Except for me, there is no one in the second room of the Shen family, who is more qualified to deal with the people in the second room than me?" Don't go and wronged good people anymore, I sold Nianci to a brothel, and it has nothing to do with the second princess. ”
"You're lying!"
Shen Nianci screamed violently when he heard this: "Things are not like this at all......"
