Chapter 116: You're Not Here to Destroy My Mouth?
When Wei Chan was pushed into the door, her temples were half scattered, her eyes were red and swollen, and her dress was not very neat - Jian Xubai was waiting in person, how could Ji Su dare to give her too much time to tidy up her appearance?
After seeing the simplicity and whiteness of the upper seat, the thirteen-year-old girl's face was full of panic and fear that could not be concealed, pale and thin like a flower under the storm. Even if it is not very beautiful, it looks pitiful at the moment.
Helplessly, Jian Xubai didn't eat this set at all, and glanced at her coldly, without even saying the word "sit", so he asked straight to the point: "What did you say to your cousin?" When she went back to her room, she cried endlessly?! ”
"It's no secret that my brother-in-law loves my cousin." Wei Chan was stunned when she heard this, suspicion and despair intertwined on her face for a moment, and finally froze into a thick sarcasm, "With your identity, if you want to do your filial piety on behalf of your sister, just do it directly, why bother making excuses?" ”
"Filial piety?" How sharp is Jane Xubai? As soon as he heard this, he realized that this matter was afraid that it was related to his mother-in-law, and he groaned in his heart, but his face was still indifferent: "Your cousin almost fainted from crying when she returned to the room, and I interrogated for a long time and couldn't say anything, what the hell is going on?!" ”
"Didn't my cousin tell you?" Wei Chan was silent for a moment, and suddenly laughed, "Ah, that's right!" Not to mention her own responsibility, let's just say that the world often says, if there is a mother, there must be a daughter, even if you will like her very much, brother-in-law, but you have only been married for a few days? How dare she take such a risk so that you know? ”
Jian Xubai also smiled, his appearance was originally beautiful, his long eyebrows were stretched, and his thin lips were slightly hooked, especially heroic, and his spirit was flying, but there was no emotion in his phoenix eyes, and he was as dark as if he was a bottomless cold pool, and the cold light flowing at the bottom of the pool was cold and sharp, as if he was about to rush out of the sheath at any time.
"Since you have found your cousin, you obviously don't want to take the narrow road." His tone was relaxed, as if he still had a little bit of ridicule, but what he said made Wei Chan shiver subconsciously, "People who have always been afraid of death are best dealt with, if you still want to play smart, I don't mind letting people take you down, teach the rules and talk back!" ”
Wei Chan originally wanted to test a few words, but peeked at the haze between his eyebrows, obviously his patience was about to run out, so he didn't dare to hesitate, and asked timidly: "...... You...... You're not here to kill me? ”
"Confused!" Ji Su couldn't stand it anymore when he heard this, and scolded him, but also reminded, "What is your identity?" Grandpa wants your life, just a hint that you'll be buried! In the middle of the night, Grandpa Ming'er still has to go to court, if it weren't for giving you a chance, why would he come over to ask in person?! ”
In fact, Wei Chan also understands this truth, but when it comes to her own life, how can she rest assured if she can't say it accurately?
After listening to Ji Su's words, she laughed at herself and said: "I am now ruined, and I have this life left, although the world looks at me as damned, I myself, but I don't have the backbone to let go!" ”
Since she wanted to live, there was naturally no reason to be disobedient, so she simply started from the beginning, "Since Cousin Yun was born, what my aunt has been thinking about every day is to make him the son of the world. The candidate for the prince in the mind of the helpless concubine is the third son of Lu! ”
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were already at odds, and they fought to the death for this. Helplessly, King Hengshan has never been able to make up his mind, even if the two of them have the upper hand, they can only be for a while, and they can't be decided after all.
In this case, Wei Mengying is worried that her biological son Lu Guanyun is still young and has an unpromising future, but Lu Guanlun has reached the age of marriage, "Once the concubine marries a noble daughter for Lu Sangongzi, and the Yue family is coerced, my aunt is afraid that it will be difficult for her to resist - but my aunt has been concentrating on enveloping the prince and protecting Cousin Yun in the past few years, and it is inevitable that she will not take much care of her cousin, and there will gradually be a gap between mother and daughter!" ”
"Especially my cousin got the blue eyes of your noble man as early as the Shangsi banquet, and after returning to the Hengshan Palace, he didn't say a word to his aunt, and he didn't confess until the decree was issued! The middle aunt noticed something, and naturally worried that after my cousin married you, even if she was favored by you, she might not be willing to contribute to Cousin Yun! ”
Wei Mengying is confident to coax her eldest daughter well, but - it will take time!
But the concubine may not be willing to give her this time!
So Wei Mengying thought about it and felt that it was the safest to attack Lu Guanlun directly.
After all, the other sons of King Hengshan, the eldest son and the fifth son are all concubines, and they are naturally inferior to Lu Guanyun, the step-son-in-law, in terms of identity; The second son is the original concubine, more noble than Lu Guanyun, but he neither pleases the concubine nor the king of Hengshan, and he also marries a jealous and childless wife, and the reasons for not setting him up can be counted in a lot of minutes!
is also Lu Guanlun, the original concubine, with a good temperament, and his studies are not bad, he is deeply favored by the concubine, and even the King of Hengshan is very satisfied with him - if it weren't for Wei Mengying to envelop her husband too well, Lu Guanyun would not be qualified to compete with this brother at all!
"It's just that although the third prince of Lu is bright, it is not difficult to calculate, but how shrewd the concubine is, how can she not protect him?" Wei Chan smiled bitterly, "Although my aunt has a heart, she has never been able to find a chance, and later, she hit the idea on the concubine's birthday!" ”
On the day of the concubine's birthday, there were many guests.
As the concubine of the birthday star, she basically can't get out of her body from morning to night.
On this day, as long as you keep an eye on the person who reported the news, it is enough to knock Lu Guanlun into the abyss before the concubine reacts!
"It is a great evil deed for a stepmother to murder her original concubine, and Liu's stepmother, who was before my cousin, is a ready-made example!" Wei Mengying naturally wanted to learn a lesson, "My aunt didn't even dare to use the maids around her, so she thought of me, my niece." ”
Unexpectedly, Wei Chan not only failed in the mission, but was also taken to a secluded place by the concubine and severely insulted, and used this as a handle to coerce her to murder Lu Guanyun!
"My aunt has always been a close eye on Cousin Yun, and the people on the concubine's side have never had a chance to get close. But for my niece, I was defenseless in the end, so I covered up what happened to me that day, and after returning to the table, I pretended to accidentally sprinkle the soup on Cousin Yun, and took him back to the room to change his clothes. ”
What can Lu Guanyun, who is only four years old, understand? After Wei Chan changed his clothes, she casually found an excuse to temporarily support him, and put the incense sticks given by the concubine into his usual incense box.
"It's a pity that the person sent by my aunt to Cousin Yun is really shrewd, it is said that the incense was only lit for a short while, and it was discovered that something was wrong - I immediately went back to my aunt, and my aunt immediately sent Cousin Yun to Hanxia Xiaozhu and began to investigate thoroughly!"
Wei Chan was originally forced to do this, but when she saw this, she naturally became a frightened bird, so she quickly found an excuse to run back to Wei's house!
"After I went home, I told my grandmother and mother what happened, although the two elders felt sorry for me, they were even more afraid of offending my aunt, so they decided to hide it - I thought that Cousin Yun was fine, and the concubine didn't send anyone to threaten again, so the matter passed!" Big tears fell from her eyes, "But two days ago, my aunt sent Bo's mother to Wei's house, saying that because the Queen Mother spoke, the position of the son of the world is eight times out of ten. Nine is going to fall on Lu Sangongzi! It's just that my aunt is unwilling, so she forced the concubine to promise to hire the daughter of the Wei family as the wife of the third son of Lu, and the Wei family is not married to a girl now, this family business, of course, is mine! ”
It's not that she didn't suspect that this sudden good family affair was actually a trap?
But in the face of temptation, people always have a fluke mentality - especially for her experience, except for her grandmother Mrs. Cao and her mother-in-law Mu, the rest of the Wei family, including her own father, does not know.
After receiving the news, the top and bottom were full of joy, not to mention, the second, third, fourth, and fifth rooms all expressed their envy, jealousy and hatred for the big house to varying degrees - the fifth room especially regretted marrying his daughter who was only two years older than Wei Chan too early, otherwise this pie might not be the turn of the big house!
In this case, where can Wei Chan say half a "no"?
"Now that the third prince of Lu is retiring from his family, what happened to me on the concubine's birthday and the murder of Cousin Yun can't be hidden from the family. I'm afraid that the elders just quit their relatives, but it is not enough to make my aunt angry, and even if they don't continue to attack the Wei family in the future, they will no longer care about the future of the Wei family's children! Wei Chan wiped away her tears and said in a low voice, "What's more, I'm not innocent for a long time - it's better to let me die of a violent illness, not only to dissolve the marriage contract according to the will of Lu Sangongzi, but also to make my aunt angry, so as not to affect the family!" ”
"My mother couldn't bear it, so she quietly let me go out, and wanted me to go to Fengzhou to join my uncle...... But I thought, even if I can reach Fengzhou safely, my own family can't accommodate me, so there must be a place for me in my uncle's house? ”
"It's better to gamble and beg my cousin!"
"After all, my cousin is my aunt's biological daughter, so maybe she can help me succeed in interceding?"
She raised her eyes to look at Jian Xubai, "You asked me what I just said to my cousin?" The conscience of heaven and earth, I just answered truthfully according to my cousin's question! After all, now my cousin's pity is my last straw, she wants to know the truth, how dare I lie to her?! ”
Speaking of this, she asked softly, "Now that my brother-in-law already knows the ins and outs, but he doesn't know, what are you going to do with me?" ”
"You said, on the day of the concubine's birthday, according to your mother-in-law's wishes, she asked you to choose the time when Lu Guanlun passed by and deliberately collided with Cousin Ji?" Jian Xubai narrowed his eyes, "But after you collided with Cousin Ji, he didn't embarrass you as your aunt thought, he just said that you didn't look good enough, so naturally he wouldn't clash with Lu Guanlun who came later?" ”
Wei Chan didn't expect him to listen to it for a long time, but when he opened his mouth to ask about it, he was stunned for a while before he said, "Yes." ”
"Let's send her back to the Apricot Pavilion." Jian Xubai pondered for a moment, but after looking up, he only said, "Call two more people to call her, but don't let her make grandma sad again for the time being, you know?" ”
Ji Su bowed down.
Wei Chan couldn't bear his thoughts, and hesitated to ask for an understanding, but was secretly pushed by Ji Su, signaling her to go out, Fang warned in a low voice: "Go away!" Grandpa is in a bad mood tonight, don't be confused! ”
After Wei Chan was led away by the servant, Ji Su turned around and went back to the house, and saw that Jian Xubai was still sitting on the top, and couldn't help but persuade: "Grandpa, the night is dark, you still have to go to the morning court tomorrow, and after going to the court, you have to go to the military department to be on duty, this will not sleep, but how can you hold on?" ”
I was afraid that because of Wei Chan's words, he would have a bad feeling for his mother-in-law and Song Yixiao, which would be entangled in his heart, thought about it, and replied, "Just based on Miss Wei's one-sided words, these things may not be able to be taken seriously!" What's more, even if the princess of the in-laws is not good, since grandma cried so much for Miss Wei, she is obviously kind-hearted. The so-called mother must have a daughter, but it is just a common saying, how can it be taken seriously everywhere? ”
"Of course, not all of what she said is true." Hearing this, Jian Xubai waved his hand and said lightly, "But it's not necessarily that she's lying, but this little girl herself doesn't know who she was trapped!" ”
Seeing Ji Su's surprised expression, he didn't explain, he just stood up and said, "I'm just thinking about some flaws in her words, this will be almost the same, let's go-by the way, tomorrow you remember to explain the person, please come to the house with the doctor we know well, lest when you tell the imperial grandmother, the news will not be right!" ”
