Chapter 2: Hearing an Argument
Plug in the incense, and all the female relatives come forward to help.
Looking at the familiar faces, they all looked sad and crying at this time.
But Jingwen knew that these people were just rabbits and foxes.
For example, the woman who is holding her hand and asking her to sit down now, the third aunt of the Qi Mansion, the Han family.
was originally the most powerful maid by her mother's side, but before her mother was pregnant, she didn't know when she climbed into Qi Jinghong's bed, and became pregnant with an heir, and raised her aunt.
Thinking of this, Jing Wen looked sideways at Han Shi, who was crying and swollen eyes, and said in her heart: Posture.
Jingwen sat for a while and stopped crying, but was told by her subordinates that her prince was invited away by Qi Jinghong, saying that the prince and other princes were here and wanted to sit together.
Helpless, Jingwen could only follow the group of women to the backyard pavilion and wait.
On the way, she looked at the women who were sad and heartbroken in the ancestral hall, crying pear blossoms with rain, and this would only be out of the ancestral hall for a moment.
A few people actually put on smiling faces and laughed with her.
Only a woman in a strange dress was pale, her brows were tightly locked, and she saluted with a depressed face: "Ladies, the concubine is unwell and wants to retire first." ”
Jing Wen looked at her, didn't speak, and nodded.
After she left, Han snorted coldly: "This has no rules, I hope you ladies don't blame, she is a foreign woman, and she doesn't understand the rules." ”
Jing Wen waved her hand, not interested in her words, and replied lightly: "It's okay." ”
Halfway through, listening to the words of the other ladies praising the mansion, Jing Wen's face was a little pale: "Sisters, the concubine has been unwell recently, so she will be absent for a while." ”
Han hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Mrs. Jing is unwell, but do you want to invite a doctor?" ”
Jing Wen quietly pulled her arm out of her hand and shook her head.
"The concubine wants to go.... Toilet. She said the last two words in a very small voice.
Han nodded suddenly in realization: "Then the concubine will send a slave to take you there." ”
"No need, I'll go with Qingzhu, you can talk slowly."
As she spoke, she had taken a few steps back, and when she saw that everyone was still looking at her, she smiled slightly, bowed her knees, and walked in the direction of the latrine.
This was a trivial matter, and everyone didn't pay attention to it.
Walking through the pavilion corridor, Jing Wen took Qingzhu to bypass the rockery, looking at the courtyard that she had been familiar with for sixteen years, and her heart was full of sadness.
She always felt that her death was not so simple, but where did she start with a powerless woman, could she ask for the sick prince whose body was not as strong as a woman?
He wasn't that troublesome, and she had no reason to ask him to look into it.
Originally, the coffin of a person who died by mistake could not be left for too long, but today is the second day, and presumably tomorrow, my father will bury her in the ancestral grave.
As soon as she thought of this, Jing Wen's sense of helplessness in her previous life struck again.
Holding the rockery with one hand, he said in his heart: I don't know that my sister who is far away in Suzhou can now know about her death.
Thinking at this moment, Qingzhu pushed her arm and whispered, "Mrs. Jing, listen, someone is arguing." ”
As soon as she said this, Jing Wen came back to her senses, held her breath, and heard a faint quarrel behind the rockery.
"You give me that jade pendant."
The person who said this, Jing Wen heard who it was.
Qi Jinghong's concubine, Na Gule.
The woman in different clothes who came out with them just now, as Han said, she is a foreign woman, a Mongolian, and someone gave it to Qi Jinghong in order to be promoted.
Able to sing and dance, enthusiastic and charming, and the subtle introversion of the women of the dynasty is different, she has a straightforward personality, open behavior, when they are not smiling teeth, feet do not show their faces, she can dress revealingly, only wear navel clothes to dance their local folk dance, and can even have intimate contact with men, scratching their heads.
The reason why Jing Wen could hear her voice instantly was only because the tone of her voice was still different from that of their dynasty, and she always felt that it was difficult for them to speak Chinese.
However, this did not delay her from becoming Qi Jinghong's most heartfelt woman.
I heard another voice sound: "Why give it to you, don't forget your own identity, I am now the only young lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion, you are a cheap concubine, dare to talk to me like this, do you want to be punished?" ”
Jing Wen frowned again, and brought her ears a little closer, Qi Fangyi. The second concubine of Qi Mansion, the daughter of the Han family.
Nagule snorted coldly: "You are just a concubine, what are you arrogant, you really don't know how black your heart is, so that you can even take the things of the dead." ”
She spoke very slowly, and her tone was not very accurate, but Jingwen still understood.
Dead man's thing, jade pendant!
With a thump in her heart, Yu Pei, that was the thought left to her by her mother in her previous life.
Jing Wen frowned and bit her lip, and her left hand holding the fake stone tightened, and she listened to the outside continue to say: "Yes, you also said, a dead person's things, everyone is dead, whoever says things is hers, if you have the ability, you can call her out of the coffin and let her grab it." ”
Nagule was so blocked that she couldn't speak, and pointed to her hand and trembled: "You... You..."
The Chinese language is not good, she directly smashed out a large paragraph of Tibetan, and directly said that the woman in a white dress of a flowing fox was stunned.
After she reacted, she pinched the handkerchief and pointed at her and scolded: "What nonsense is it saying, Miss Ben doesn't understand, if you don't speak Chinese in the Great Dynasty, you will be killed, what rules do you have, Miss Ben doesn't understand, but in our Dynasty, a cheap concubine is a cheap concubine, dare to talk to Miss like this, believe it or not, I asked someone to beat you with a cane fifty boards, and let my father send you this shameless concubine back to your broken grassland." ”
Nagule snorted coldly: "You give it a try, and see who the master doesn't let go." ”
Qi Fangyi knew that she was definitely inferior to her in front of Qi Jinghong, so she glanced at her and muttered: "Fox." ”
As she spoke, she was about to turn around, not wanting to entangle with her, but Nagule didn't give up and blocked her way again.
"Hand over the jade pendant."
"Concubine, you're endless."
Qingzhu, who was standing behind Jing Wen, couldn't listen anymore, and was about to rush out in anger.
was stopped by Jing Wen with her hand stretched out, only to see her walking out from behind the rockery with a smile on her face.
"A woman who doesn't understand the rules, a cheap concubine, who is this scolding?"
Qi Fangyi, who wanted to have the upper hand in her mouth, turned pale in an instant when she saw her.
He took two steps forward and saluted her: "See... I've seen Mrs. Jing. ”
Jing Wen didn't let her get up, and said with a smile: "I wanted to find a toilet to relieve myself, but I didn't expect the courtyard of your mansion to be so generous, but it made me lost, and I happened to be attracted by your quarrel, and I didn't want to get involved in your own affairs, but I couldn't get angry when you scolded me like a concubine." ”
The woman said, her eyes aimed at Qi Fangyi's back, and one of the maids was secretly retreating to the side, thinking that she was going to move the rescuers, which was exactly what she wanted, but she didn't see it.
Turning to look at Qi Fangyi, who was still curtsy, he smiled and said, "Does the second miss of the Qi family look down on us concubines?" ”
Qi Fangyi's head was sweating with fright at this time, and her tone was a little stammering: "No... Can't. ”
Jing Wen knew that she was also the master of the nest, bullying and bullying the concubines, the maids were okay, and anyone outside could scare her so much that she collapsed directly on the ground.
Before, she was groveling in front of her daughter-in-law, sister, sister's scream, her mouth was sweet, but she didn't expect that her body had not been buried in the soil, and this person was already thinking about the things in her house.
Jing Wen turned to look at Nagule, who was standing on the side, with a flushed face, and pursed her lips and smiled at her.
Ignoring Qi Fangyi, who was still saluting, he laughed with her.
Nagule also saw that the woman in front of her was helping her to vent her anger, and also cooperated with this to talk to her.
The woman asked why she was arguing with Qi Fangyi, and Nagule angrily pointed to Qi Fangyi who was not far away and replied, "She stole a lot of things from the third lady." ”
The kneeling man was said to be in a hurry, so he got up directly, and pointed at Nagule angrily: "You are talking nonsense. ”
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel in front of Jing Wen again, Qingzhu, who was standing on the side, stood up in front of Jing Wen and shouted, "You two are bold." ”
This made the two of them shut up immediately.
Jing Wen was simply laughed at by them, and asked Na Gule sideways: "Then what's the matter with the jade pendant you have been chasing just now?" ”
Before Nagule could speak, Qi Fangyi grabbed the conversation first.
"What else can I do, I guess I've been thinking about it for a long time, my third sister is also pitiful, as soon as the person left, some people who have a heart went to rummage through her box, otherwise this person can't find me."
As he spoke, his eyes turned red, and he pretended to wipe the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.
