Chapter 68: Yi Ruonan turns things around
In the Ci'an Hall, the aunts of each province sat down one after another on both sides. The drama of the theater, the assist of the assist, all waiting to see the follow-up development of things. And it wasn't until the maids and ladies served new tea and snacks that Mo Shi let the kneeling people continue.
It's a pity that the little maid Song Er is not enough after all, she was not the main output of Cuiming Academy, if it wasn't for Mo's initiative to order her, it would be another older mother-in-law who replied, or a mother-in-law who was given a good confession. And now that Song Er was interrupted halfway, he didn't know what to refute, and the other people in Cuiming Courtyard next to him didn't dare to speak easily, so they could only be anxious.
Song Er was sweating, but Chun Tao took over the conversation very smartly: "Ask the old lady to call the shots, Aunt Wang accidentally fell into the water, and the young lady jumped in to save people with good intentions, but was framed by Diao Nu for murder, which is really hateful!" ”
"You slut is talking nonsense!"
With a coquettish shout and angry scolding, everyone saw that it was Aunt Su who walked in at the door. She was originally helping to take care of the Wang family in Cuiming Courtyard, but at this time, she took Yi Ruojiao and Yi Ruofan, two sisters, and the three of them knelt down before and after.
The people present were shocked when they heard this, and silently felt that their knees seemed to hurt a little.
Su Shi kowtowed and said, "Old lady, today's eldest lady borrowed wine to commit murder, which is obvious to everyone!" The concubine and Sister Wang have been humiliated by the second lady over the years, and they originally thought about their home and everything was prosperous, but they didn't dare to resist! But the lives of the concubines are cheap, but the heirs of the Yi family are more expensive than gold! Sister Wang worked hard to give birth to an heir for the second room of the Yi family, and she shouldn't suffer this catastrophe! ”
She said it fiercely and urgently, and it was quite a bit of a taste of standing up and fighting.
Yi Ruojiao and Yi Ruofan next to them shed tears when they heard the words, but they didn't say a word.
"Aunt Su's crime is to put me to death!" Yi Ruonan walked in from the door.
Mo Shi felt that his brain hurt a little at this time, and entering her Ci'an Hall one by one was like a no-man's land, but it could be returned! glanced at the old lady next to her, who understood that she was guarding the front door.
Yi Ruonan's wet clothes have not been changed, the bun on his head is also messy, and the makeup on his face is even more spent, looking very embarrassed. But her eyes were as if they were soaked in poison, locking Su Shi tightly.
She hated Su Shi very much, this person's rhetoric deceived her trust and led her to the lake to arrange such a frame-up, forcing her to jump into the lake! Yi Ruonan doesn't know how to water, and most of the people present at that time are people from Cuiming Courtyard, most of them are busy fishing for the Wang family, if it weren't for the other maids and daughters of the Yi family who came quickly, she probably wouldn't be able to see the sun tomorrow!
Su really didn't expect Yi Ruonan to have the courage to jump into the lake, she was very worried that things would change, so she could only break the jar. She has no rules now, and as long as she thinks that Yi Ruonan may retreat again, she hates it so much.
So everyone saw Su Shi staring at Yi Ruonan resentfully and said: "The eldest lady naturally denies it, but people are watching the sky, you were so innocent back then, and you pushed the concubine down the stairs in the same way, so that the concubine could not be raised again!" It's not enough for you to harm your concubine, and now you're harming Sister Wang, you're really ruthless! ”
When such words came out, the scene immediately exploded. Regardless of whether it was fanning the flames or not, the people present began to whisper, and some even whispered: "It is said that this eldest lady of the Yi family is generous, but I didn't expect her heart to be so black, and she is so ruthless at a young age, and she will be able to pay it back in the future!" ”
"That's it, who would dare to marry such a girl!" Some people talk about it, and some people agree with it.
Seeing this, Su Shi kowtowed again: "I beg the old lady to call the shots for the concubines!" ”
"Yes, old lady, you can't help the eldest lady, this is a matter of human life! If it is not handled properly, it is said that going out will damage the reputation of the Yi family, and it will also make people say that the affairs of the Yi family are not clear, how can they lead the hundred officials of Tongzhou! The person who spoke was a woman in pink, she was wearing a peach-colored plain brocade shirt and a white lake crepe skirt, and her face was very charming.
Lin snorted coldly and said, "Joke! My husband's appointment as the governor of Tongzhou is an appointment order issued by the imperial court, how can you be allowed to beak like this! Or is Lord Wu unconvinced, what has he said to your Aunt Liu? ”
That's right, the woman in pink who just spoke was the aunt of Lord Wu Jianbin of the Wu family, surnamed Liu. This Lord Wu is Wu Jianbin of Tongzhou, the state of Tongzhou, from the sixth grade, and Yi Xihu and others share the affairs of Tongzhou, but the grade is below Yixi Lake. And his son Wu Feng is close friends with Yi Luochuan, the third young master of the Yi family.
This Aunt Liu didn't dare to make another mistake when she heard this, Lin's hat was buttoned so big, she would not be disciplined by Wu Jianbin when she went back, and she would also be punished by the housemother, Mrs. Wu, under the pretext of an excuse, so she could only apologize with a smile.
Mo Shi, who was sitting at the top, glanced coldly at the aunts who were watching the play, and it was not until everyone was silent that she moved her gaze to Su Shi.
Su naturally knew that she had stabbed the hornet's nest, and the old lady pressed the matter and refused to mention it, but now she has uncovered it. But she can't help it, because she doesn't know the bottom of her heart now. She did everything she could, but she didn't expect that Yi Ruonan would be so open-minded when she was by the lake, and no one could tell if she dared to jump down by herself. It's because she brings up the old thing again, so that Mo can no longer be partiality in front of everyone! Su Shi had no choice, because the arrow was on the string, and he had to send it!
In fact, Su Shi really lost her mind a little, Dafan she still had a trace of sobriety, after Yi Ruonan made that move, she should know that this framing had actually failed. The best thing for her to do is to swallow this breath and fight again in the future, rather than pulling up the past at this time.
Yi Ruonan knew that she was in her hands after Su Shi said about Jinhua County, she didn't pay attention to Su Shi at the moment, but knelt in front of Mo Shi and said: "Uncle Grandmother, Nan'er is wrong about this today, Nan'er is willing to be punished!" ”
When she said this, almost everyone present was stunned, no one thought that she would admit it like this. But soon everyone found out that it was not so simple, because Yi Ruonan, who spoke again, turned the situation around almost instantly!
"Today, Aunt Wang of Cuiming Yuan set up a birthday banquet, Nan'er, I am very happy, because I will have a younger brother or sister soon! But despite all the happiness, I shouldn't be greedy for wine and drink with my sixth sister and seventh sister! In fact, I was already drunk at that time and was about to go back to Nanfeng Ju to rest, but Aunt Su came to tell me that she had an accidental miscarriage so she was confused, and mistakenly thought that I pushed her, and she always hated me. In fact, she knew that she had accidentally misstepped, and that she had not been able to forgive her mistakes, so she thought of me as the culprit in her heart, so as to alleviate her own guilt. But she said that now she has figured it out, and she wants to renew the old relationship with me......"
"Nonsense!" Su interrupted Yi Ruonan's words.
Yi Ruonan was not interrupted by his train of thought, and still sneered: "Aunt Su! You pretended to reconcile with me at that time, afraid that I would not believe it, and told me that my mother sent some Luoying grass to Aunt Wang's yard, saying that if a pregnant woman smells the fragrance of Luoying flowers, she will be born prematurely, and the premature baby will definitely die! I tell you that your mother is not that kind of person, she will not do such things! You don't have to let me worry, you will keep it a secret for us! ”
Su Shi was even more panicked, Luo Yingcao was what she was about to say, but she didn't think that Yi Ruonan would poke this thing out first!
"I'm not lying! The fallen grass is in my yard! Su blurted out.
"Yes! Aunt Sue! Since Luo Yingcao is in your yard, why did you frame my mother for assassinating Aunt Wang? Yi Ruonan forced each other step by step.
Su Shi felt that this was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he hurriedly explained: "Luoying Grassland was originally in Sister Wang's yard, but I found it and moved it to me!" ”
Su was obviously flustered, and had long forgotten to call himself a concubine.
Yi Ruonan smiled: "So you have already discovered Luoying Grass?" But you didn't stay quiet, and you didn't come to ask your uncle and grandmother to call the shots like you did today, but you used it to lure me in! You think that my mother assassinated Aunt Wang because she told me that you knew that your mother had released Luoying grass in Cuiming Courtyard in exchange for my trust. Although I know that my mother is not that kind of person, and I am afraid that there is a misunderstanding about this Luo Yingcao, I am really afraid that I will not be able to explain it clearly, and I just want to wait until I ask my mother to explain it to you. I don't want you to deliberately invite me to visit Crescent Lake, and while I was drunk and confused, I couldn't explain it clearly, so I used Luoying grass to provoke a dispute between me and Aunt Wang, which caused Aunt Wang to be excited to fight with me by the lake, and then there was a falling into the water! Forget it, I saw my aunt fall into the water and forgot that I didn't know how to water, so I jumped down to save her! As a result, I also went to half my life and was pulled back to the yard, and when I woke up, I didn't have time to change my clothes, and I heard that you framed me for assassinating someone's life! I...... I ......"
Before Yi Ruonan finished speaking, he seemed to have been hit hard and fell into the arms of Chun Tao next to him. When I saw the pitiful look, it instantly aroused everyone's sympathy.
"You talk nonsense!" Su Shi was dumbfounded, and was about to get up and rush over to beat Yi Ruonan, but was held down by his mother-in-law.
Su Shi was still struggling, and Mo Shi smashed a cup from above, making the scene instantly quiet.
Mo can't control the truth, so far, Yi Ruonan's rhetoric is the most satisfying, and it is inevitable to sacrifice Su. But despite this, she still opened her mouth to ask where Huang was now.
Yi Ruonan didn't hide it, and replied bluntly and weakly: "Just now I mentioned the matter of Luo Yingcao to my mother, she was very surprised, and she is sending someone to the purchase list!" ”
Sure enough, after a while, Huang Shi came in tremblingly, and knelt in front of Mo Shi with another "poof". She said that she found a list of purchases, and also found the merchant who sold Qiu Ju at the beginning, and the other party also admitted that because of the lack of goods at that time, he casually bought some Qiu Ju from some flower sellers, and did not know that it was harmful to people.
So far, Yi Ruonan has won a big victory!
This matter soon spread to Yi Xiangxiang's Yongle Residence, almost word for word. Yi Xiangxiang was playing against Yi Luochuan at that time, and Zhao Ziqian and Xiong Wei were cooking water and tea for them on the side, and everything went into their ears.
In fact, if you want to say that the tension in Ci'an Hall is terrifying, the scene of Yongle House at this time is also so weird that it is terrifying. The Seventh Prince made tea for the Yi family brothers and sisters, and if this matter was spread, it would definitely be a big surprise, because even Xiong Wei felt that His Royal Highness's actions during this period of time were unexpected. Yi Luochuan originally felt that it was inappropriate and wanted to make an exchange with Zhao Ziqian, but Yi Xiangxiang refused to let him. Then Zhao Ziqian also reassured him that he was fine, and Yi Luochuan gave up.
Yi Xiangxiang heard Qing Xuan's narration say that Yi Ruonan jumped into the lake without saying a word, and she was holding the white jade chess pieces in her hand, and she said with great admiration: "The eldest sister is really a heroine among women, others gamble with their lives, she also gambles with her lives, she is a ruthless person!" There is also a second aunt who is also a powerful one, it seems that she has already made sufficient preparations, and in case of the incident of Luoyingcao East Window, she has already had a way out. ”
Yi Luochuan didn't know until today that his sister had told him that day that there would be something going on in the second room, and he said after he left a son: "Why didn't you stop it when you knew about it?" If Grandmother knew, she would have given you a beating! ”
He heard Qing Xuan's description of how angry his grandmother and mother were about it.
"Qingxuan, you go to the main courtyard first and tell your mother, take this opportunity to clear out a group of loose maids, and you don't have to let the Yi family raise a group of idlers." Yi Xiangxiang did not reply to Yi Luochuan's question first, but opened her mouth to tell Qing Xuan to do something.
Qing Xuan turned around and left after getting the order, and Yi Xiangxiang said to Yi Luochuan: "The reason why I let things go is also to take this opportunity to make the back house more peaceful and self-contained. And although our big house has no big enmity with the Su family, but the grandmother suppressed her grievances of losing her son, which is a hidden danger! Su's resentment will accumulate deeper and deeper, and one day it will erupt, I have long wanted to take this hidden danger away, this is a good opportunity, why stop it? ”
Before Yi Luochuan could say anything, Xiong Wei next to him interjected disapprovingly: "It's just an aunt who doesn't enter the stream, or from another room, and you can't do anything to reach into your big room, right?" Why bother. ”
"Xiong Gongzi is right, but ants can also shake elephants, take this matter as an example, if the big sister reacts a little slower, it must be the big sister who takes off a layer of skin. Moreover, the inside of the back house is really dirty, and the eldest sister will leave our house immediately, and after that, the Su family has lost its enemies, and it is difficult to guarantee that it will not aim the arrow at my grandmother. Of course, my grandmother naturally wouldn't be afraid of her, but my younger siblings are still young, and we can't afford to break the jar that Su is crazy. In the back house of the Yi family, what Yi Xiangxiang is most worried about is the pair of younger brothers and sisters who have not yet been able to judge right and wrong.
Yi Xiangxiang thought, if only they were also traversers! At her age, she had already started to run the Joy Building!
As for the question of the Su family, Yi Xiangxiang was indeed on guard early on, in fact, she had been staring at the Su family's movements, otherwise she would not have known the plan of the Su family and the Wang family so quickly. The fact that the Su family could not regenerate for the rest of his life was caused by Yi Ruonan. Yi Ruonan's surname is Yi, and it is difficult to ensure that the Su family will not regard the entire Yi family as an enemy. That's why Yi Xiangxiang kept staring at her.
At this point, the people present naturally understood Yi Xiangxiang's concerns, so they didn't say anything more.
In fact, Zhao Ziqian still knew a layer, and he felt that the reason why Yi Xiangxiang asked that Su to design Yi Ruonan was to understand her big sister's adaptability. Yi Xiangxiang helped Yi Ruonan in the draft, that is, indirectly sent her to the bigger and more ruthless house, Yi Xiangxiang borrowed Su's design to determine whether Yi Ruonan had the ability to survive in the tiger wolf's den.
Of course, Zhao Ziqian also knew that Yi Xiangxiang would not admit that he had a knife mouth and a tofu heart. However, it is not that Yi Xiangxiang is soft-hearted, but that she should be said to protect her shortcomings. Between Yi Ruonan and Su Shi, Yi Xiangxiang chose the former, and used the latter as Yi Ruonan's whetstone.
After this incident, Yi Xiangxiang determined that Yi Ruonan at least had the ability to protect herself, so that she could really help Yi Ruonan participate in the draft with peace of mind. Zhao Ziqian thought so.
Both affectionate and affectionate.
Yi Ruonan, who won, returned to Nanfeng Ju, but unfortunately she didn't have the joy of winning, because she was originally scheduled to perform a play tomorrow to go to the Hou Mansion, but now that this happened, she naturally had to postpone her plan.
However, her unhappiness soon disappeared, because that night when she was angry that the Su family had ruined her big business, Yi Xiangxiang sent someone to call her to Yongle Ju and told her not to bother about the affairs of the Tihou Mansion anymore, because Yi Xiangxiang would arrange for her to participate in the draft. Yi Ruonan was still a little worried at first, after all, she was brushed down back then. It wasn't until Yi Xiangxiang said that she had entrusted the Seventh Prince Zhao Ziqian to arrange it to ensure that she would not lose the election again, that she happily returned to her Nanfeng Residence.
Today's Yi Ruonan, that is really a spring breeze. Compared with Hou Fu, she naturally hopes to participate in the draft, because once she succeeds, it will be even more supreme power.
And the reason why Yi Xiangxiang told Yi Ruonan about this now was that she didn't want Yi Ruonan to think of something to design for the affairs of the Hou Mansion, and then block her old grandmother.
After this day, the Yi family no longer has an aunt named Su, and Yi Ruonan's justification is true or false, but it is logically impossible to find fault. And Su Shi violated the gag order issued by the Mo family and told the matter of Jinhua County, and she naturally had no place in the Yi family. Yi Tangquan originally wanted to intercede with the Su family, but instead he was scolded by Yi Kangwen, the old lady of Yi, saying that he was making a disturbance in the house, so he didn't dare to say anything.
There is nothing serious about the Wang family except for drinking a few sips of lake water, and Luoying grass has already been changed to her yard by the Su family, so that Wang's fetus is healthy. She was also very smart and didn't take the initiative to say anything, even Yi Ruojiao and Yi Ruofan just cried and didn't say a word when they arrived at Ci'an Hall, because Cuiming Yuan and Yi Ruonan became victims from the bright side. The final result of this matter was that the Su family planned revenge, and all the things were counted on the Su family. Although the Wang family failed to give Huang and Yi Ruonan a heavy blow as expected, his situation has not changed.
However, there is another beneficiary in this scene, that is, Song Er, who is the master of Mo's face, and is directly mentioned as Yi Tangquan's new aunt. So although there is no Aunt Su in these two rooms, there is one more Aunt Song!
Of course, this day was Yi Ruonan's most exciting performance, not only turned things around, but also eliminated his old enemy, which is why Yi Xiangxiang and Zhao Ziqian talked about Yi Ruonan in Yongle House the next day.
