Chapter 264: Old Things
Xiao Xuan, who was standing beside Duan Shaolan, heard this, and subconsciously raised his head to look at Duan Shaolan's expression.
Almost at the same time as she rolled her eyes, Duan Shaolan turned her head sideways, the two looked at each other, and Duan Shaolan raised her eyebrows.
The slight uneasiness in Xiao Xuan's heart suddenly dissipated cleanly, and she lowered her head and smiled at the corner of her lips.
In all fairness, Xiao Yunling's appearance is excellent, especially her amorous and soft eyes, at this time her eyes are full of admiration and tears, and even a woman like Xiao Xuan can't help but be a little moved.
Of course, Xiao Xuan won't really be moved, after all, Xiao Yunling is worried about his own horse.
Duan Shaolan shook his head helplessly at Xiao Yunling, he leaned down slightly and stretched out his hand towards Xiao Yunling.
At that moment, Xiao Yunling's eyes were almost about to glow, and she thought that Duan Shaolan was finally going to respond to her. Looking at Duan Shaolan's hand that was slowly stretched out, she was full of anticipation and was about to let go of the hand that was holding the corner of Duan Shaolan's robe, but Duan Shaolan just grabbed the corner of her robe, and pulled the corner of the robe out of Xiao Yunling's hand with the force of her palm.
"From beginning to end, the only person I Duan Shaolan liked was my wife. Not to mention the incident five years ago, I was a victim in the first place. Duan Shaolan's eyes did not fluctuate in the slightest, and he said firmly. Cousin Ling, no matter what my wife's status is, I will not take a concubine even if I get together with her. Shaohua is fleeting, Cousin Ling still don't waste effort on me. ”
Xiao Yunling couldn't listen to anything at all now, and Han Shi, who was standing on the side, was so angry by her piercing cry that she was dizzy for a while, but fortunately, the maid behind her had been following her closely and had already supported Han, so that Han Shi did not fall.
Han didn't look at Xiao Yunling on the ground again, and instead looked at Duan Shaolan and Xiao Xuan, who were standing together in front of him.
Han was only glad in his heart that Xiao Xuan had encountered such a thing, and he did not deal with it as fiercely as Xiao Lu. In addition, this matter is just Xiao Yunling's obsession and mistake after mistake, Xiao Xuan's attitude is really mild except that he does not allow this matter to be spread outside.
"The third uncle and mother are weak, so don't stand all the time." In the end, the Xianwang Mansion is a close branch of the clan, even if a concubine like Han's husband is quite promising, and looking at the face of the Duansu County Lord, Xiao Xuan will not easily make enemies with the Han family. "Third aunt, please take a seat."
Xiao Xuan placed the Han family to sit down, but he didn't even glance at Xiao Yunling on the ground.
"Princess Xie." The Han clan was indeed a little unable to support it, so after Xiao Xuan spoke, she sat down in a good manner. "Although Sister Ling was not raised under my knees, I am her mother-in-law after all. It was really the courtier's fault that she was so charged-bumped-into the princess and the colt. ”
"The third aunt doesn't have to blame herself too much." Han's body is not good and he is bedridden all the year round, not to mention his concubine, even his own concubine is taken care of by the princess of King Xian. "I heard that the third aunt also has two daughters from her own sister-in-law, and the two younger sisters have reached the age of marriage, and Sister Ling'er, as an elder sister, is only afraid that the marriage will not be delayed."
"Don't worry, the princess knows it and will give the princess an explanation."
"Since the third aunt said so, then I won't say anything more." Xiao Xuan still had an appropriate smile on his face and said.
Han got up to say goodbye, and the people behind her also smoothly dragged Xiao Yunling, who was weak, out. Xiao Xuan ordered Lu Lin to go out to see off the guests, and Han took people to leave directly with Lu Lin.
Only Xiao Xuan and Duan Shaolan were left in the hall, and Duan Shaolan grabbed Xiao Xuan's wrist.
"Now that everyone is gone, tell me about what happened five years ago." Xiao Xuan didn't let Duan Shaolan pull her, but winked at him. "How old Xiao Yunling was five years ago, what kind of things can he do, I'm really curious."
Han's frail temperament is not weak, and what Xiao Yunling did not only slapped her in the face as a mother-in-law, but also seriously threatened the future of all the unmarried girls in King Xian's mansion. The Han family is only a concubine and daughter-in-law in the house, and in the future, she will inevitably have to rely on the princess of Xianwang, who is her eldest sister-in-law, and the princess still has an unmarried daughter under her knees. Xiao Xuan said that he wanted Xiao Yunling to marry as soon as possible, and the Han family had its own connections and would let Xiao Yunling get married.
What happened in Xiao Lu's mansion before, Duan Shaoyou saved his life, and was sent to the coastal area of Funan as a petty official, not to mention that he was not allowed to return to the emperor for life, and he would never be promoted, and his original good future was completely ruined. He was beaten and was not even allowed to be injured and was directly sent out of the imperial capital by the Jinqi Guard, and the coastal area of Funan where he was going to be attacked by water bandits all the year round and the people were fierce, and for decades - big - big - small officials due to death and injuries were changed very frequently, he was only afraid that it was easy to save his life for a while, but it was not easy to grow old in peace.
When the mansions in the imperial capital talk about Duan Shaoyou, who doesn't laugh at him for being dead. married the eldest daughter of Emperor Chu, and hooked up with a lowly maid when the princess was about to give birth, but was caught and raped by the princess in bed. Originally, except for Duan Shaolan, he was rare among the children of the Zhenguo Mansion, but he ruined his good future by himself. Even the anger of the Zhenguo Gong, the prince of Zhenguo received the family law, and the wife of the prince of Zhenguo was also ill, and now the stewardship of the Zhenguo Mansion is completely in the hands of the lord of Duansu. No one has to talk about it, looking at the current situation, even if the prince has the support of the queen, he may not be able to go for a long time.
Speaking of the fact that he was drugged by Xiao Yunling for a while five years ago, Duan Shaolan also had a hard time.
Xiao Yunling had been planning about this matter for a long time at that time, but fortunately, the person who broke the matter by chance was a henchman under the Duansu County Lord, and she promptly notified the Duansu County Lord and the Han clan to deal with it, so that the matter did not leak a trace of rumors outside.
Duansu County Lord regards Duan Shaolan as a parent, where can he be allowed to be calculated. The good-natured Duansu County Lord called Duan Chengwen, and Xiao Yunling still shouted that Duan Shaolan had broken her body and wanted Duan Shaolan to marry her immediately.
The county lord of Duansu was not ambiguous, and directly invited a mother-in-law who was proficient in gynecology to test that Xiao Yunling was still perfect.
Xiao Yunling saw that this road was impassable, and cried that she had admired Duan Shaolan for a long time, saying that even if it was not his main room, even if she was a concubine. Duan Chengwen thought that Xiao Yunling was the niece of the Duansu County Lord, so he handed the matter to the Duansu County Lord to decide.
In fact, earlier, after Han knew that Xiao Yunling had moved his mind about Duan Shaolan, he had hinted that the county lord of Duansu wanted the two families to marry. Everyone knows Duan Shaolan's origins, if it weren't for the fact that Han's own girl was too different in age from him, Han's would have wanted to give him his daughter.
At that time, after the Duansu County Lord solicited Duan Shaolan's opinion, Duan Shaolan politely rejected the proposal.
No one expected what would happen later, Xiao Yunling, who looked docile and weak, would take a risk, and on the day when Duan Shaolan and Sister Chu's brother and sister went to King Xian's Mansion with Lord Duansu to celebrate Princess Xian's birthday, they drugged Duan Shaolan.
Duan Shaolan originally only thought that Xiao Yunling was a timid and cowardly little girl, Ding Xingwang was prosperous in the Xianwang Mansion, Xiao Yunling was just the eldest daughter of a concubine, and she was not eye-catching among the many young ladies in the Xianwang Mansion, she had always been low-key and never had bad relations with others, so Duan Shaolan was naturally unguarded against her, after coming out of Princess Xian, he waited for Duansu County Lord and Sister Chu in the garden, drank the tea handed by Xiao Yunling, and when he woke up again, he was lying on Xiao Yunling's bed-in disheveled.
The strength of the medicine did not subside, and he struggled to get up. Fortunately, at that time, Ling Zhi, a henchman beside the county lord of Duansu, found the clue and brought someone to find it, so that the trustworthy person stopped Xiao Yunling and her maids in time, and woke up the drowsy Duan Shaolan with tea.
Ling Zhi is the dowry maid of the lord of Duansu, and the family is still serving in the Xianwang Mansion, her mother is serving by the side of the Xianwang Princess, and her father and brother are also the effective stewards of the mansion, and they also have their own power in the Xianwang Mansion.
Seeing that Duan Shaolan was drugged and calculated, Ling Zhi immediately made a decision, first let people control Xiao Yunling and her maids, and after gagging their mouths, she asked someone to send a message to her mother to invite Duansu County Lord and the Han family from Princess Xian's courtyard.
Not to mention the Han family, after the Duansu County Lord came, he almost fainted with anger when he saw such a scene.
The Han family still has a daughter, where can Xiao Yunling be allowed to do this kind of thing, so he took the initiative to propose that the Zhenguo Mansion does not need to tolerate Xiao Yunling who committed a crime in the relationship between the two families, Xiao Yunling's maid was immediately killed with a cane, and Xiao Yunling was also sent to the Buddhist hall with her head twisted.
Aunt Mei pleaded like a foreign woman, so that Xiao Yunling's father saved Xiao Yunling and released Xiao Yunling with her.
After hearing the origin of the whole thing, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but be surprised.
Although she has seen all kinds of tricks played by some young ladies for marriage, it is nothing more than a fall or a fall into the water, which is effective and good-operated, even if the marriage fails, it will not damage the reputation of both parties too much.
Xiao Yunling, who is silent, looks inconspicuous, but she is resolute in doing things, and she is determined to solve an iron case, forcing Duan Shaolan to accept her back as a concubine even if she does not marry her as his wife. Fortunately, she was still young at the time, so Ling Zhi from the Xianwang Mansion could see the problem, and this time she prevented the incident from happening in time.
"It's just that I didn't expect that the third uncle took her out for five years, and she was still obsessed." Duan Shaolan didn't want to hide anything, anyway, everyone was in front of Xiao Xuan, even if he didn't say it, Xiao Xuan must have a way to know these things. "It's just disturbing your good mood today."
"It's fine." Xiao Xuan was also relieved, even if this matter was counted to the root, it had nothing to do with Duan Shaolan, not to mention that it was just Xiao Yunling shaving her head and picking her head hot. "Today is a good day for my son's full moon, and this little thing doesn't hurt my good mood. Besides, the matter is over, and the third aunt will handle it properly. ”
