Chapter 188: Investigate to the end
In the side room of the Wuyuan Courtyard, Jia woke up on the tent bed with sandalwood, and the sister-in-law Zhang, who was waiting with her, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the situation, and hurriedly called the red ginseng out to inform everyone.
"Ahem......"
The pain of being choked by the water was still there, Jia Shi frowned haggardly, opened his thin white lips and said, "I...... Where am I? β
Sister-in-law Zhang hurriedly brought a glass of water over, helped Jia Shi to sit on the soft pillow, and said: "Madame, don't worry, this is our old lady's side room, you just fell into the water, do you remember?" β
Jia Shi took the water cup, and in the process of swallowing slowly, she gradually recalled everything that happened not long ago, and the anger in her eyes instantly rushed out, she clenched the water cup tightly, and said through gritted teeth: "Sui Linglong!" β
Sister-in-law Zhang said in her heart that it was really the hands and feet of the cheap concubine, and she hurriedly soothed Jia's emotions: "Madam, don't worry, your body is what matters, there is justice in this world, and the good things that Sui Linglong has done will not let her easily prevaricate." β
As she was talking, Zhou Laolang took Xiao Tong and said through the curtain.
"Greetings to Madame."
The two men said respectfully.
Jia Shi said in a low voice: "No courtesy, come in." β
Zhou Lao Langzhong opened the door curtain, and Xiao Tong came in one after another, and Sister-in-law Zhang hurriedly lifted a stool for the former to sit on the edge of Jia's tent bed, and said softly: "Old Zhou, please show Madame, is there any big problem." β
Zhou Laolang said: "This is nature. β
Xiao Tong took out the pulse pillow, and Jia calmly put his wrist on it, and then covered it with a veil.
Zhou Laolang stretched out his finger and pressed it, and said, "It's the old lady who doesn't want the lady to be disturbed, so she just asked the old man to bring the apprentice in and give the lady a pulse." β
Hearing this, Jia Shi nodded: "The old lady has a heart." Suddenly I remembered one more thing, "By the way, I fell into the water...... So who brought me ashore? This is a life-saving grace, and you must not prevaricate at will! β
Sister-in-law Zhang hurriedly said: "Madam, it is our family Qi girl." β
"Cheng Qi?"
When Jia Shi heard this, some incredible expressions appeared on his face.
If you talk about Cheng Qi, let alone Xiping Jiucheng, there are few people in the entire Dachang Kingdom who have not heard of it, and she is naturally like thunder, but to be honest, Cheng Qi's image in her heart is not very good.
In the past, he was just a submissive waste, but since last year, Cheng Qi has gone from eating dead rats to picking up other people's pants, and then to rudely abusing the second and third uncles, stealing Duan Guifei's night pearl, and all kinds of ......
Even if she later saved the emperor's life in the mutiny and invented the popular LancΓ΄me perfume, Jia couldn't like her, after all, people's first impression of people, without long-term getting along with each other, is extremely difficult to change.
It's just that I didn't expect that now, I was actually saved from her!
"Where is Cheng Qi?"
But no matter what, the grace of saving his life could not be repaid, and Jia still wanted to thank him personally.
Sister-in-law Zhang replied: "Madame, I don't know, our girl is not drowning lightly in order to save you." He glanced back and said, "I should rest in the Tinglan Water Pavilion at this time, if Mrs. wants to see her, let's wait for our girl to see her better." β
"Who said that?"
Xiao Tong retorted: "The girl is not in Tinglan Water Pavilion, she is in the main hall." β
Sister-in-law Zhang has been taking care of Jia's family in the side room, and she didn't pay attention to the situation outside, and when she heard this, she was puzzled: "The main hall? β
Lieutenant Zhou Laolang withdrew his fingers and withdrew his pulse diagnosis: "Madame's body is fine, just meditate and cultivate." He answered Sister-in-law Zhang's question again, "That Sui Linglong deliberately pushed Mrs. into the water, and Miss Qi is pursuing it in the main hall." β
Jia Shi was even more surprised when he heard this, and raised his body slightly and said, "What did you say?" β
Zhou Laolang said: "The little prince and the old lady are here, and Ge Yuanjun is also there." "Stopped," Miss Qi pointed out to Sui Linglong in front of everyone, and wanted to escort that person to the official mansion. β
Sister-in-law Zhang nodded, this is Cheng Qi's style, unless she doesn't see bad things, because as long as she sees it, she can manage it or not, she has to do her best to make the wicked get revenge and speak for justice.
But Jia's heart is not calm, she has not suffered any grievances since she was a child, who knows that after marrying Xiping, she simply eats grievances as food, but her mother's family is burdened by sin, and there is no backer, no one will care about her feelings.
She originally thought that even if the matter of being pushed into the water by Sui Linglong today was exposed, Ge Yuanjun would definitely not be able to choose Sui Linglong so much, not to mention that there was Ge Lingjun's child in that person's belly.
Therefore, she did not have the impulse to pursue it after waking up.
But now, there are people who are fighting for her outside, and they still don't hesitate to offend Ge Yuanjun.
Jia Shi gritted his teeth, stubbornly put on his shoes and got up, walked out of the side room, and walked towards the main hall.
β¦
β¦
There were a lot of people sitting in the hall, and the one sitting was naturally Jiang Xiaowangye, who was still the merry man on weekdays, wearing loose clothes, sitting reclining, with an unknown bracelet in his hand, as if he was smiling.
Ge Yuanjun next to him, there were so many things at the banquet today, and it was still on his own head, his face was blue and purple from constipation for half a month, but he was pressed by Jiang Xiaowangye, and he didn't dare to say anything.
Then there was Mrs. Cheng and the other parents, but except for the Guogong Mansion, the rest of the people like Shanhua Mansion and Dongfu were not there, which was not a glorious thing after all.
Cheng Qi sat at Mrs. Cheng's hand, her face was haggard and pale, but her eyes were flashing with fine light, like mussel beads that could not be covered by gravel.
Cheng Yan sat on her right hand, glanced at her state more, and said in a low voice: "If you can't stand it, let's go back to Tinglan Water Pavilion to rest, there are me and Taiheng here, and Sui Linglong will not be allowed to escape easily." β
If she doesn't see the criminals lying in the law, Cheng Qi will not rest, otherwise when she was in the city bureau in the past, she would not have been sent to the traffic police brigade to extort a confession by violence, let alone say the eight-character mantra every ** captain.
- Cheng Qi! You get me off work!
She is so righteous and Ling Ran, coupled with that extremely beautiful face, it is naturally eye-catching.
"Sui Linglong."
Jiang Xiaowangye's gaze was inseparable from Cheng Qi at all, and after being glared at by Cheng Yan, he reluctantly turned his head to look at Ge Yuanjun, and said in a mixed tone: "Why haven't you brought it yet." β
"People are out there."
Red Ginseng Road.
Jiang Xiaowang waved his hand and said, "Bring it up." β
"Yes."
After the red ginseng finished speaking, I saw that Sui Linglong was tied up by Mother Zhou and others, the person was messed up and his hairstyle was scattered, and he was crying with pear blossoms and spring rain, and anyone who saw it would feel distressed.
In this way, it naturally made Ge Yuanjun feel pity, and that person was still pregnant with his child.
"Sui Linglong, you are so bold, as a concubine, not to mention the following crimes, and vainly trying to push Mrs. Jia to fall into the garden lake and drown." Although Jiang Xiaowang is nostalgic for flowers and willows, he is in contact with kind girls who work hard for life, and he doesn't like Sui Linglong, who does not hesitate to kill people by any means.
"A slut with a heart like a femme fatale, what else is there to judge, just kill it!"
Jiang Xiaowangye crossed Erlang's legs, his face was not angry, and he beckoned to call someone.
Where is Ge Yuanjun willing, he quickly got up and arched his hand and said: "The little prince is angry, it's just ......" glanced at the concubine who was struggling on the ground, he was embarrassed, "It's arbitrary, it still has to be tried first." β
Jiang Xiaowang drank a lot of wine at the banquet, and he was a little upset at this time, his handsome face was much more serious than Cheng Yan's, he rubbed the corners of his eyes, and said, "Since the envoy wants to be tried, then let's try it." β
Seeing this, Ge Yuanjun wanted to kick this half-sized man out of outer space, but he had to endure it when the official was crushed to death, and asked Zhou's mother to pull out the cloth ball in Sui Linglong's mouth.
"Rei ......"
"Sir! Help, sir! Help, sir! β
As a result, before Ge Linglong could speak, Sui Linglong shouted in front of everyone, and Ge Lingjun only felt that his face was lost, but if Sui Linglong was really disposed of, he couldn't pick up his face by smashing it on the ground.
"Linglong, the little prince said that you pushed Xinlan into the water, but is there anything wrong?"
Ge Yuanjun asked.
Sui Linglong didn't think about it and said, "No! The bow kept complaining for himself on the ground, "It wasn't the concubine's doing!" Madame's eyes twitched ...... she fell into the water, "Yes, Madame...... No...... It's a concubine! β
Her disorderly speech undoubtedly proved the panic in her heart and the urgency of not having time to talk nonsense, Mrs. Cheng said with a cold face: "Speak well!" β
Sui Linglong, an ordinary embroidery girl, was frightened by the four words of the Hengyang County Lord, tears fell, and said: "Master, the concubine knows...... The concubine is favored by you...... So...... So...... Madame has always disliked concubines...... Today is the party...... Madame was very angry...... The concubine wants to give the lady...... Make amends to your wife...... I chased all the way to the ...... to the east."
Cheng Qi's hands propped up on his knees clenched into fists violently, and he almost stood up in excitement.
Cheng Yan hurriedly held her down.
Cheng Qi took a deep breath, she couldn't see Sui Linglong, a master who could still make up nonsense in front of the parties, it was obvious that she was chasing Jia Shi and trying to provoke that person, when did it become an apology again.
"Sui Linglong, you can think about it."
Cheng Qi gritted his teeth in warning.
Who knew that Sui Linglong turned a deaf ear, in her cognition, no matter how powerful Cheng Qi was, she was just a girl to be married in the Guogong Mansion, where could she compare to Ge Yuanjun's Xiping Thorn History to cover the sky.
With Ge Yuanjun here, she will not take Cheng Qi in her eyes.
"Sir." Sui Linglong continued her lie, "Concubine...... I tried to make amends to my wife in every way...... It's a soft word...... The slap was also pumped...... Can...... But the lady just refused to let go of the concubine...... Keep asking aggressively...... Even...... ...... even "she suddenly wept," she suddenly wept, "it was the lady who wanted to push the concubine into the water...... The concubine pushed twice in order to save herself...... Behold...... Who knew that Madame accidentally fell down......"
"Sui Linglong!"
Cheng Qi Huoran got up, pointed at the man and said, "You are talking nonsense!" β
Sui Linglong glanced at Cheng Qi slyly, and said busily: "There is also Miss Qi!" Miss Qi...... Miss Qi bumped into this scene...... Not only did he not help the concubine to complain...... "I don't know when I broke free of the rope and pointed at Cheng Qi with her bright red nails, "It was Miss Qi who asked Mrs. to push the concubine down and drown!" β
"I ......"
Not long after Cheng Qi was flooded, the whole person was angry, and when he heard this, he couldn't suppress it anymore, got up and went over, slapped Sui Linglong's cheek, and fanned it as hard as he could!
"Smack-"
"I'll fuck you!"
Cheng Qi scolded: "In front of me!" How dare you say such a thing! See how I clean you up! β
That Sui Linglong was slapped by her just now, and at this moment she fell to the ground and was dying, and the people around her were all stunned, I didn't expect Cheng Qi to beat people in person!
In the end, Cheng Yan reacted and hurriedly pulled Cheng Qi back.
Poof.
But here, even Cheng Pei couldn't stand it anymore, and laughed sarcastically.
This Sui Linglong also takes herself too seriously, thinking that she is a big card master, worthy of Cheng Qi and Jia's lives to slander her, look at Cheng Qi is angry like this, you will know what is going on.
Cheng Qi broke free of Cheng Yan, took a few steps forward and said to Jiang Xiaowangye: "Little Wangye, you have to uphold justice!" Looking back at the smoking Sui Linglong, Ling said, "I went for a walk in the east drunk, and happened to bump into Mrs. Jia and this Sui Linglong behind the rockery, I didn't want to offend, so I didn't show up, who knew that this Sui Linglong, not only pulled Mrs. Jia at will in broad daylight, but also said wildly, saying that Mrs. Jia had no merit for the heir, and asked Mrs. Jia to ask for a divorce from her wife, so that she could enter the main hall, the vulgar and rude words were really appalling!"
Not only that, after she instructed Mrs. Jia to fall into the water, I went into the water to save her, but Sui Linglong not only didn't help, but even took a wooden stick and wanted to kill me together! How vicious the heart! β
After she finished speaking, she stared at Jiang Xiaowangye, waiting for the man to speak.
Who knew that Jiang Xiaowang patronized and looked at her, forgetting what he was going to do next.
This Cheng Qi is so funny.
Especially her angry appearance, a pair of peach blossom eyes bulging, and the momentum that refused to tolerate a trace of darkness in front of her, obviously she had just scolded more dirty words, but she said that Sui Linglong's words were rude.
"Little prince?"
"Little Prince!"
Cheng Qi reminded in a loud voice.
Jiang Xiaowang reacted suddenly, shook his head, and said casually: "A vicious person like Sui Linglong, if you don't kill it, you still keep it for the New Year to eat meat?" When someone comes, they will be beaten to death with sticks to set the record straight. β
How willing Ge Yuanjun was, he quickly got up and wanted to intercede for that person, but he now understands that Cheng Qi has been affected and drowned a lot, so this girl will not let Sui Linglong go, and Jiang Xiaowangye has a good relationship with Cheng Yan, and he is quite interested in Cheng Qi, so the judgment must be one-sided.
He thought quickly in his mind, knowing one thing, Sui Linglong can't be saved, Jia and Cheng Qi jointly exposed Sui Linglong alone, it is impossible for him to fight for a concubine, it is too cheap, so what he has to do now is to keep the child in Sui Linglong's womb, which is his own flesh and blood.
"Little Prince......"
Ge Zhijun was embarrassed: "Although this Sui Linglong's crime is difficult to write, but ...... After all, she still has a child in her belly, please think twice before making a decision. β
When Sui Linglong heard this, her expression changed from joy to despair, it turned out that Ge Yuanjun was just for this child, she cried in pain, but because it was too noisy, she was gagged by Zhou's mother again.
But Ge Yuanjun was right, this child was innocent, Jiang Xiaowang scratched his jawbone, and he didn't want to disobey Cheng Qi's wishes to make that person unhappy, and he fell into a dilemma for a while.
"Little Lord."
Mrs. Cheng said calmly: "The child is indeed innocent, even if the biological mother does something wrong, it should not be added to the child." β
As soon as the old lady opened her mouth, Jiang Xiaowang immediately felt much more at ease, and asked respectfully: "Then old lady, do you mean, do you want to let go of this poisonous woman?" β
"It's better than that."
Mrs. Cheng took the idea and said: "This child is born, if she continues to be raised by the side of her biological mother, wouldn't it be ruined if she learns from it, besides, Sui Linglong's sin cannot but be investigated." "Stopped," then ...... First lock her up in the Thorn Shi Mansion, not allowed to enter and exit, and wait for the child to be born, put it under Mrs. Jia's knees to raise, if Mrs. Jia does not give up, it is not impossible to go out in the future, as for this Sui Linglong. β
The old lady glanced at Sui Linglong coldly, that person made such a mistake and disrespected the main house as a concubine, which couldn't help but remind her of the Chen family who was still locked up in Nalantai, so she was even more unhappy.
"When the child is born, she will be sent to the government prison and let her fend for herself."
Old Madam Cheng has spoken, and Ge Yuanjun has to give face, and this is already the most appropriate way to deal with this matter, glanced at Sui Linglong, and sighed sullenly in his heart.
If you come to eat privately, you won't talk about it, and you will get yourself into trouble.
Set people on fire.
Eat the consequences.
And Cheng Qi saw that Ge Yuanjun suffered a loss like this, and he had no objections, although he was still very angry, but he unexpectedly did not continue to pursue it rationally, after all, the faces of the Ge family and the Cheng family could not be torn too much.
It's just that this breath was relieved, and the pain of choking on the water surged up, Cheng Qi's body arched slightly, covered his mouth with his fist and coughed violently twice, and his eyes were instantly stimulated and bloody.
Jiang Xiaowang frowned, got up and said with concern: "It's okay, do you want to go back and rest?" β
Cheng Qi shook his head and signaled that he was fine.
Cheng Yan watched from the side, his face turned cold unconsciously, and he walked over and said, "Xiaoqi." β
"Zong Yu."
Seeing that these three people were in a game, Mrs. Cheng said lightly: "Help your sister go back to rest." β
Jiang Xiaowang smacked his lips and had to give up.
It seems that his character as a wanderer is too successful, even in such a large public, his grandmother is not worried that she and Cheng Qi are standing together, and she can't even talk.
had to watch Cheng Yan help Cheng Qi leave.
β¦
β¦
"You're just competing like that, aren't you afraid of offending Ge Envoy?"
Cheng Yan squinted at her and asked.
Cheng Qi remembered that he was forcibly kissed by him at this time, and cautiously hid to the side, the man chuckled, and she frowned and said: "If you let Sui Linglong go, I don't know how proud that person will be in the future, besides, I am not only for Mrs. Jia who fell into the water, but also for myself, dare to take a stick and swagger on my head, looking for death." β
Cheng Yan couldn't stop laughing when he heard this, and his hands looked dashing.
Cheng Qi looked at him cautiously, wanting to ask about the forced kiss, but ...... But he was too ashamed to say it, so he had to give up, just thinking about guarding against that person in the future, and never letting him take advantage!
'Poof. β
As soon as she made up her mind in her heart, she was kissed again on the right cheek.
Cheng Qi looked ahead, stunned.
it?
She turned her head to look at Cheng Yan, but the man didn't say a word, only walked to the Xijing Pavilion in the west with a smug smile, and didn't explain why she suddenly kissed herself.
"Cheng Yan, I'll go to your ......"
Cheng Qi glared and wiped his face, just thinking of a Hedong lion roar and scolding.
"Miss Qi."
Jia's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Cheng Qi looked back blankly, seeing that the person was accompanied by Zhang's sister-in-law, and subconsciously glanced at the direction that Cheng Yan left, for fear that Fang Cai's actions would be seen, and in a trance, she also understood the purpose of the person's stealing relatives.
"Ask for a ...... for Madame"
Cheng Qi saluted in a regular manner, but was held by Jia's hand.
"You're welcome, girl." Jia Shi looked at Cheng Qi, although the man was haggard, he couldn't hide his spirit, but he was a cheerful and fresh child, not as demonized as rumored, "Thank you to the girl for saving me today, when the girl was in the main hall, I saw it all, and I want to thank the girl for avenging me." β
Cheng Qi said calmly: "Madam, this matter is also related to my safety, you don't have to take it to heart." Thinking of Sui Linglong's two-faced and three-knife appearance, she was angry, "Besides, Sui Linglong is so vicious and doesn't make her pay the price, if someone goes in the future, will there be a peaceful day in this country's mansion?" β
Hearing Cheng Qi say this, Jia Shi was a little surprised.
It stands to reason that she saved her life, such a great grace, but Cheng Qi just passed it as a good deed, not for herself, but for her.
But Cheng Qi didn't take it to heart, it didn't mean that Jia Shi was not grateful, she knew that Cheng Qi was not short of gold and silver, and even better than herself in material conditions, so she thought for a few seconds and took out something from her arms.
"Please take this."
Jia Shi said.
Cheng Qi fixed his eyes and saw that it was a crescent-shaped jade pendant.
"This is what my father left me." Jia Shi said calmly, "The girl is very kind, my Jia Xinlan is unforgettable, this jade pendant girl accepts, if there is anything I can help in the future, bring this jade pendant to me, as long as I Jia Xinlan can do it, I will definitely do my best and die." β
Cheng Qi didn't want to accept it, and it wasn't this what she saved Jia's for, let alone Jia's...... What will she do in the future to ask her for a poor person, but Jia insisted again and again, and she had to take it with both hands.
"Thank you, Madame, for your kindness." Cheng Qi said.
"I have nothing, I can only use this as a reward, and please don't dislike the girl." Jia Shi said.
Cheng Qi hurriedly said: "Why should Mrs. be arrogant, this is a goose feather sent for thousands of miles, and the courtesy is light and affectionate." β
Jia Shi was pleased, and the two didn't say much, Cheng Qi asked Zhang's sister-in-law to send Jia back to rest, turned around and walked in the direction of Tinglan Water Pavilion alone, fiddling with the jade pendant in his hand, and putting it in his arms.
