Chapter Twenty-Seven: Suspicious
In November last year, the Jiang family sent away the youngest of their ancestors, the Marquis of Jibei.
It's only been six months, except for the grandchildren and great-grandchildren, no one else has been filial, and the Kuixian man is not good, and the blow to the Jiang family in Beijing can be imagined!
What made Qin Guogong sad the most was that it was no one else who assassinated Jiang Jingzhen, it was the remnants of the Gu clan - Qin Guogong also lay down directly after receiving the news for this reason!
Therefore, the Guogong Mansion can only be presided over by Mrs. Tao.
The old lady told the juniors in a sad tone: "More than half a month ago, Jing Zhan went out to run a horse, and when he passed a section of the embankment, a woman suddenly rushed out of the embankment and almost startled the horse!" Originally, Jing Zhan was going to be angry, but when he saw that the woman was only thirteen or fourteen years old and very beautiful, he moved his mind! ”
Qiu Yulan was sincerely speechless: "This kind of beauty of unknown origin, no one thinks to check it?" "Even if Qiu Feng is a recognized hero walking the rivers and lakes, he may not be able to have the treatment of being full of goodwill, let alone the Jiang family, who builds his glory on the corpses and blood and tears of many opponents?
As if to see her thoughts, Old Madam Tao sighed: "It is said that this matter is very suspicious, but there is a reason here: since Tianluan married the first emperor and became the queen, our Jiang family has become a descendant. Over there in Kui County, the Jiang family is naturally a first-class family - usually trying to hook up. The woman who led the scene to their brother has never been less! So Jing Zhan and his entourage on the left and right ran into ...... again."
The amorous debt must be repaid, Jiang Jing took the little beauty home to enjoy, and he was angry with his wife Xiao Jin for this. I didn't know that the next day when the sun set in the west mountain, I didn't see him come out, and the next person passed by and didn't listen to his orders, someone noticed that something was wrong and went to tell Xiao Jin, Xiao Jin went to knock on the door with a lot of resentment and couldn't respond, so he panicked, and sent someone to tell his in-laws, while going to the front to shout that the servant banged on the door-
As soon as the door opened, the bloody aura almost knocked the person who slammed the door!
Xiao Jin was simply put into the inner room by his mothers, and he saw his husband who didn't know how many knives he had been stabbed all over his body, and who didn't have an inch of good meat except for one face intact, and the husband around him. The dead soldiers and dead soldiers who died were still stained with Jiang Jing's blood, and the bloody words "blood debt and blood repayment" were written on the quilt - poor Xiao Jin fainted directly!
The fifth lord Jiang Tianjun and his wife who came later were also carried out when they saw this scene - the Jiang family in Kuixian County is not like Jingli, Mrs. Han is from a humble background, and she is not much more noble than the Yuan and Lin family of the Kuixian man, and the second and fifth masters are not allowed to go out, nor are they married to Gaomen, and they are all daughters of local squires, with limited knowledge and ability.
So after encountering such a major event at first glance, all the top and bottom are in a mess, where can you still take care of concealing it? In less than an hour, the matter was brought to the male couple in Kui County!
Jiang Jingzhan is only twenty years old this year, and his birthday in the second half of the year is not even the crown. The Kui County man and Mrs. Han watched this great-grandson grow up, marry a wife, and have not yet given birth to children, and they said they would go at a young age, and they went so miserably - it's no wonder that the two old people can stand it!
…… Of course, Kui County's urgent report to Jingzhong is mainly for Kui County's men, and the importance of Mrs. Han is secondary, and the people who report the news don't have the time to mention her.
Mrs. Tao didn't bother to mention this step-sister-in-law, and after telling what happened, she asked everyone: "Tianqiao wants to worry about Ding, and his house must go back to his hometown to guard his filial piety." The mourners in your room? ”
Strictly speaking, the rise of the Jiang family, the first credit is the Kui County man, without his contribution, Qin Guogong and Jibei Hou could not be cultivated when they were young, and they may not be able to come out so quickly. In this way, I have missed many opportunities to develop and grow, and it is difficult to say whether I can have the achievements I have today in this life.
But emotionally......
Qin Guogong and the Marquis of Jibei really have no feelings for the men of Kui County......
Like eight. Master Jiang Tianxiao, because he was born in Beijing, he has never seen this uncle in his life, and it is not strange that he is indifferent; The older Jiang Tianqi has seen his uncle and been hurt by the Kui County man, the problem is Jiang Tianqi - Jiang Tianqiao's behavior over the years has long made the Kui County man angry! Even if Jiang Tianqi has been in an alliance with Dafang in the past two years, it is difficult to say how much true affection he has for this uncle.
is Jiang Tianchi, who has never said anything bad about Jiang Tianqi - Qiu Yulan is sure that this father-in-law is definitely more inclined to Jibei Hou in his uncle's feelings!
Therefore, after Mrs. Tao asked this, the hall was silent for a while, and it took a long time before Mrs. Zhuang broke it: "The eldest uncle treats our Jiang family as a mountain, but now that the war in northern Xinjiang is blazing, he really can't get out, so he can only let Dan'er, the eldest son, go forward on his behalf!" ”
When it was over, it was silent.
Obviously, Mrs. Zhuang meant that there would be a Jiangya Dan in the fourth room - anyway, there was nothing serious about Jiangya Dan in Beijing. There are people who do serious things, such as herself, her daughter, son-in-law, youngest son and daughter-in-law, but she doesn't go.
With her taking the lead, Jiang Tianqi of the third room also said: "Then let's go to Xiao Qi in our room!" Who told him that his brother was gone? ”
When he said this, he glanced at the fourth room lightly.
Bafang is the most helpless - Jiang Tianxiao married his wife Huang, and in recent years, he has accepted several concubines one after another, but now he only has two daughters, namely Miss Jiang Qixiao and Miss Jiang Qi, Miss 21, and has no son. Even if he has a son, his son at his age can't serve his father yet, so Jiang Tianxiao can only go by himself, and he can't hide!
Old Madam Tao didn't say anything about this kind of scene, after all, although the Jiang family is prominent now, they are also standing on the cusp of the storm, and there is no room for error! If everyone goes back to their hometowns to mourn, even if they don't keep filial piety over there, it will take months for so many people to go back and forth, and who knows how the situation will change?
"In that case, then you should disperse first and go to the big house to have a look...... Don't call that child too sad! The old lady said lightly, "I'll ask Chaohai what he means when I go back-no matter what, you must go to someone, you can pack up your things first!" ”
After exiting the door, Mrs. Zhuang said to Jiang Yadan indifferently: "Since they raised you back then, you will go around for a while, let's go back to the fourth room to discuss things first!" ”
The third room and the eighth room are all in person - there is no way to go to the eighth room, young, no son, you have to do it yourself; The third room is, of course, a rabbit and a fox.
"Seeing that the war in Western Xinjiang is about to break out, I just say that God will give us another chance, I don't want my uncle to ...... him" Jiang Tianqi arrived at the big house, looking at Jiang Tianqi, who had aged a lot in just one day, and his heart was bitter.
Speaking of which, the two cousins were the best among the brothers and sisters of the same generation when they were young - when Mrs. Han passed the door, she treated Jiang Tianqiao and Jiang Tianyuan very badly, and the two brothers and sisters had a miserable life. Later, when Qin Guogong returned to his hometown and found out, he told the Kui County man in anger, and insisted on taking his nephew and niece to his side and being raised by his own wife, Mrs. Dou.
So Jiang Tianqiao and Jiang Tianqi grew up together. Jiang Tianchi can also be counted, but Jiang Tianqi is already several years older than Jiang Tianqi, and there are even more people older than Jiang Tianchi, and the age gap is really not enough to play together. Therefore, the relationship between the eldest and the third is still good, and it is estranged from the fourth child.
It wasn't until they were young that the two stepped into their careers one after another, and Qin Guogong and Jibei Hou were eccentric again and again, and the two cousins began to gradually separate - and later formed an alliance because of the threat of the fourth room.
At this moment, the two cousins sat opposite each other, thinking back on their life experience, they both felt embarrassed, "I think there was no suspicion between the brothers at the beginning, how close was it?" I don't know how it got to this point......"
"I have to return to my hometown to guard filial piety in this room, you can't support it alone, and you may not be able to fight four rooms." Jiang Tianqiao was silent for a long time, and said in a dumb voice, "It's better to be still than to be still, just bear with it for the time being!" ”
"If we endure this time, our revenge for the loss of our son...... Is there any hope for retribution? Jiang Tianqi was very old, but he couldn't cry, "Big brother, you, Yun'er and Xu'er, are all outstanding children, and you don't have to worry about having no successors!" But among the heirs under my knees, in addition to the excellent lovers, Xiao Qi and Fourteen, which one is the one who can support the court? The two of them together are not as capable as the fourteenth daughter-in-law! How can I not take revenge for this revenge!? ”
Jiang Tianqiao laughed miserably: "But how do you report it?" Let's not say that Qiu Jinglan has Ren Ziyong's assistance, this battle may not be lost, even if you lose, will you be able to succeed in seizing his military power? Don't forget whose daughter is Xiaoba's step-family - King Huainan and the Queen Mother have joined forces, how difficult is it to cure Qiu Jinglan's crime? After all, he is not a commander now, and he still has the guise of Han Jishan! won, Han Jishan didn't dare not give him credit; Defeated, Han Jishan didn't dare not give him the blame! ”
He exhaled and said tiredly, "The time is not for me!" It's not you and me! ”
"There's always a way." Jiang Tianqi was silent for a long time, and said faintly, "Back then, our grandfather's generation was so poor, and my father and uncle still earned their heads, which shows that things are man-made!" The four-room is now the upper hand, but ...... It doesn't mean that we won't be able to fight back! ”
"Be careful!" Jiang Tianqiao said in a low voice, "Although the fourth child is not in Beijing, his ears, eyes and ears are ...... And our little nephew, who has never been a fuel-efficient lamp! ”
When they were talking in secret, the fourth room was also discussing this matter, but of course the atmosphere would not be as pathetic as the big room-
"There are also a lot of people in Kui County, Jing Zhan is a junior, although he is the eldest grandson of Wufang, but he also has a little advantage in the ranking, and he is not outstanding in himself, let alone bear any heavy responsibilities." Mrs. Zhuang raised her head, "The remnants of the Gu clan will actually spare a dead soldier on him, aren't they afraid of being caught by Shun Teng?" It's weird! ”
At this time, Chu Yitong had already come out of the small moon, Jiang Yadan was sent to the big room to condole, and after Mrs. Zhuang finished speaking, everyone else waited for her eldest sister-in-law to answer.
"Could it be for my uncle and grandfather?" Chu Yitong pursed his lips, "This time, Kui County is in a hurry to report to us, isn't it because my uncle and grandfather were stimulated by this?" In particular, Jing Zhan died...... So miserable! ”
"In this case, anyone who leaks the news to your uncle and grandfather is suspicious." Mrs. Zhuang frowned, "I don't know if Kui County has thought of this?" Don't leave when the time comes, if you take advantage of the chaos to attack your uncle and grandfather, you can ......."
Jiang Qizheng groaned: "Although the people over there in Kui County have never gone out much, they often don't think well when they encounter major events. But aren't the eldest brother, sister-in-law, and Xu'er all there? What should they have thought? ”
Mrs. Zhuang thought for a while: "It's the same!" If your uncle and grandfather are gone, it will not be a good thing for the big house. It's impossible not to do your best in this matter! ”
"Actually, the child thinks it's strange that although I don't know what the house Jing is living in, since he was stabbed countless times by the dead man, the blood in the room is terrifying!" Jiang Yashuang said, "Didn't anyone notice the movement in the room that night?" Even if Jing Zhan was restrained and couldn't shout at that time, the sound of a knife stabbing into his body and blood splashing was not small in the quiet night, right? Moreover, it is now May, and most of the time in April was half a month ago, and the weather was already warm, but it was not yet time to use ice. So normally, at this time, the window should be open at night, even if the green screen is covered, how can it stop the spread of blood? ”
"It stands to reason that Jing Zhan's death shouldn't have been discovered until the next evening!"
Mrs. Zhuang and the others were stunned: "Could it be?!" ”
