To say that Huang Qiu, the third master of Jianning Houfu, is indeed a very wonderful existence.

The Huang family was originally a family of Dongming, the old lord was born in the Dongming Dynasty, and naturally there were groups of wives and concubines, in addition to the concubines in the room, there were two good concubines alone, and the second master's biological mother Liao was one of them.

The old lord was very fond of the Liao family, and he maintained it in many ways, so that he could keep the only concubine of the second master.

Mrs. Tai and Liao were pregnant successively, each gave birth to a son, the third master is actually less than a month younger than the second master, Liao is also a very hearted woman, persuaded the old Hou Ye, with his mother's brother into the office, when Dalong was founded, it was the time of employing people, the old Hou Ye got the title, and he was proud, and he actually complied with Liao's intentions.

Since then, Mrs. Tai has regarded Liao as a thorn in her side.

Liao's also has some means, although the old lady later accepted a charming aunt, but she has always been able to hold the heart of the old lady, and she attaches great importance to the second master, and later gave birth to the second mother Huang Yuan.

With Liao's struggle, the second master was once very favored.

In contrast, the third master was neglected by the old grandfather, and actually invited a gentleman to the second master, but instead lost the third master to the family study.

Mrs. Tai felt sorry for her son, and when she saw her father's partiality, she was extremely arrogant to the third master.

There is the old Hou Ye to protect, the second master's life will not have any twists and turns, but unfortunately the second master is not yet fifteen, the old Hou Ye has a stroke, hemiplegia in bed, on the fold of the son Zhishi at home to recuperate, Jianning Houfu power fell into the hands of Mrs. Tai and the eldest son, the second master's days are worlds apart from then on.

Not long after, Liao fell ill and died.

The second master had a difficult time when food and clothing were difficult to maintain, Huang Yuan was only five years old at the time, but under the "teaching" of her brother, she flattered her mother to the fullest, although the brother and sister suffered a lot, they grew up peacefully in the end.

Compared with the second master's young and bumpy, the third master's days in the old Hou Ye can not take care of himself, more and more lawless, when the second master brothers and sisters are conscientious and self-protecting, the third master is in the casino hook bar squandering, for a while it has become the benchmark of Kyoto Gentleman, when the old Hou Ye passed away, the third master is in the heat of filial piety, and even competed with a certain gentleman for a famous breed of cockfighting introduced in the Western Regions, and almost folded himself into the Shuntian Mansion.

The eldest brother Huang Yan couldn't bear it, so he persuaded Mrs. Tai that she could no longer indulge the third master, and that she had to control it financially. This method really made the third master stop, but his temperament became more and more gloomy, especially when his career was not smooth, and he hated Jian Ning for not mentioning joining hands, and secretly held a grudge in his heart.

Although the third master is useless, he has to say that he is a sinister person with the second master, and he is very kind-hearted, at least although Mrs. Tai and Jian Ninghou are wary of the second master's brothers and sisters, they don't care much in the end, but the third master sees through the ambition that the second master endures, and after some careful investigation, he really pinched a painless handle of the second master, and wanted to coerce the second master to meet his financial needs, and he also threw out the bait of "knighthood" without greed.

Now that the second master heard the Jiang family mention this stubble, he only disdained it except for the cold snort.

"With the third child's brain, you still think I don't know his ideas and calculations? Is there a way for me to become a knight, just with a fool like him who can't even keep his official position? Is he really able to calculate the boss and let the long house be convicted, and the Houfu has such an in-law as the Weiguo Mansion, so that he will not ruin the Danshu iron coupon, and the title can be my turn as a concubine? The long house collapsed, the third child thought that the order would also be his turn, and he didn't look at how big his head was, whether he could bring such a big hat, the reason why I gave him a few silvers was nothing more than to see him go against the boss, if the title really fell into his hands, the Huang family was about to fall, that is what I wanted, the lord of the title or something never cared, if it really made me a thing, I could fight for one, but I wanted the old pious woman to watch her sons kill each other, and death could not be closed to make me out of my evil anger for many years. ”

"Uncle is indeed hateful, for so many years, let's bow down and be small, he is still that cold face, like who lives on his charity, although he is now serving as a squire in the military department, he is not relying on the merits of his father and ancestors, and he is just supporting Wei Guogong." Jiang pursed the corners of his lips.

"That's why I can't watch the five mothers of the long room become the third princess, that highness is definitely not a thing in the pool, and he has a great chance of winning." The second master seemed to be too hot, and pushed the Jiang family who was leaning in his arms with a twisted brow, but Jiang Shi grabbed his arm tightly.

"Second master, the third brother and sister are still mentioning a matter in a hurry today, so that we can go to the Chu Wangfu to mention it and match Qi Niang with Erlang of the palace."

Huang Tao squeezed the corners of his eyes, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and after half a sound, he lifted the corners of his lips without a smile: "The third couple are both Adou, Shiro is also a nerd, only Qi Niang, but unfortunately it is a boudoir." ”

The Jiang family obviously didn't appreciate Qi Niang as much as the second master, and the corners of his lips pursed seriously: "Qi Niang knows too much, can she be tolerated?" ”

Huang Tao shook his head: "I didn't think of it at the beginning...... The third daughter-in-law, who didn't succeed, actually told Jiang Yue about her dealings with our house, how old was she at that time? I just turned ten years old, and I actually found you that there is a way to provoke the Jing girl to be separated from the eldest princess, and to listen to the sister, the little girl, the heart is flexible, I just handed over the matter of Wu Niang to her, how do I know that she only relied on those few old clothes, and Wu Niang contracted a pox rash, and deduced that we were instructed by a certain prince. ”

"She even knew that the second master had two hearts for the prince." Jiang lowered his voice and said.

Huang Tao frowned fiercely: "It's also to blame me for being negligent for a while, and she actually said that the Third Highness came out." Another pause: "Jiang Yue is a clear one, she just wants to have a good match, she also has a big heart, and she will not marry if she is not a clan...... Seeing how much she plans, she doesn't have the luxury of expecting the Third Highness, but she understands that it will attract our jealousy! I originally wanted to use her, so I told her about the secret of the Chu Palace, so that she had a plan in her heart, and she would be able to maneuver in front of Jing Yatou in the future, but she actually hit this plan. ”

Jiang was a little impatient: "It's up to her to make it, this is not like the broken handle that the third brother has at hand." ”

"What can be done, she has already told the third couple about it, maybe there are still people from the Jiang family, even if we can wipe out the third family, can we still kill the third brother and daughter-in-law's mother's family? That girl is cautious, and she knows the scale, and now that the old three-one room is involved, she doesn't dare to talk nonsense. The second master knocked on the kang with his fist: "Okay, just match this marriage, we are closely related to Yu Dong, we are in the same boat, and we are no longer afraid that Jiang Yue will talk nonsense." ”

Jiang was quite unwilling: "Cheap that girl, I only felt hiccup when I looked at her, and I really didn't like it, and if Yu Erlang can really inherit the throne of Chu in the future, she will not become a princess, if the third highness can ascend to the throne, the general of Zhenguo is also a hero, and the third room will not show off its might." ”

"You can rest assured, if the third highness can really ascend the throne, the Chu Wangfu will no longer be the current Chu Wangfu, hum, an empty throne, only Yu Dong thinks about it, I still want to see the third and the boss pinch each other, so that the third room can have a false momentum, and only then can the capital and the boss be trusted." The second master smiled coldly: "What makes me feel at ease is the other side of the Guogong Mansion, our brother-in-law is not a soft-eared coward, if you want to let San Lang attack the lord, unless the son is short-lived, but this matter is not simple, you can't start easily, and you have to find an opportunity to kill people with a knife." ”

"It would be nice if there was another opportunity for Jin to rebel now, but unfortunately I didn't succeed that time, teach Jing girl ......"

"This matter has to be mentioned again, it almost involved the Third Highness, if he knows, we will not have nine lives enough to die." The second master hurriedly interrupted Jiang's words, but his mind was stirred, his eyes slid left and right, and he frowned and thought deeply.

——

One day in June, a rainstorm suddenly fell, the rumbling momentum lasted for the whole day, until the evening, only the rain was injected, a round of sunset but followed by the rain into the wind stopped, in the foothills of the undulating place appeared, the green sky, a bend of the rainbow bridge connected the heaven and earth, attracted the surname to look up, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the first glow after the rain.

Mama Jiang came out of the corner door of the backyard of the Guogong Mansion and walked on the rain-stained stone road in the back alley of the mansion, hanging her face and worrying.

She deliberately took a leave of absence today.

This afternoon, the mystery of Hu Qing's family in the flower and herb house brought her a message, saying that her children had been found and had been redeemed from Ninghai Jinyang, so that she could see it at Dexing Building in Changqingfang this evening.

This was really shocking to Mama Jiang.

If this statement is false, why did Ning Hai be specifically mentioned? His own pair of children were not detained by Mama Song in the Song family in Ninghai! Half a month ago, Mama Song also said that Ning Hai brought a letter, saying that her children were all right and reassured her. Mama Jiang thought about it repeatedly, but she didn't dare to take it lightly, so she decided to explore the truth.

Changqingfang is also in the inner city, through Fuhou Lane and Dongxingfang, it only takes two minutes to walk.

Jiang Mama because of the impatience, standing in front of the Dexing Building was already a little out of breath, this Dexing Building is a famous restaurant in Kyoto, the guests are either rich or expensive, Jiang Mama has no chance to set foot in, at this time standing here, watching the running hall ushered in, the heart is inevitably a little shrunken.

was hesitating, but a long-robed white-faced person who looked at the steward stepped forward: "But Mama Jiang?" ”

After getting confirmed, he welcomed Mama Jiang inside, walked through the foyer to the backyard, and went to an independent small building, up to the second floor.

Mama Jiang recognized at a glance the young woman standing at the top of the stairs wiping her tears, it turned out to be Xia Yun who used to be an errand in the courtyard of the fifth lady!

Xia Yun was sobbing and choking, and when she saw that Mama Jiang had even more red eyes, she stepped forward and saluted: "Mama is here, go in quickly, Sister Qiao and Brother Tong are inside." ”

Mama Jiang's heart was shocked, because what Xia Yun said was her child's name.

Three steps and two steps forward, through the open door, I saw Yijing sitting in a chair, smiling and talking to a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman, and next to a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy was standing.

Although she hadn't seen her for many years, Mama Jiang still recognized her children at a glance.

The woman seemed to have a little impression of Mama Jiang, but the young man didn't recognize his biological mother at all, and the two of them recognized Mama Jiang after getting Yijing's signal, Yijing made a special trip to give them a heartfelt time, and went out of the house first, and saw Xia Yun, who was still wiping tears from his eyes, and frowned a little impatiently.

Originally, as early as the old years, Yijing asked Du Yuniang to find a way to "rescue" Mama Jiang's children from the Song family, Xia Yun also has a merit or two in this matter, because she is indeed worse than death in the Song family, Yijing may have Du Yuniang took Xia Yun back to Beijing, just now Xia Yun cried about what happened in Ninghai, rolled up her sleeves and let Yijing see the overlapping scars on her arms, Yijing asked her what she planned in the future, but she was silent.

"Xia Yun, it's useless to mention the previous things, since you escaped from the Song family and stayed in Jizhou for a while, don't you think about where to go in the future?" Yijing asked again.

Xia Yun immediately knelt on his knees: "The slave just wants to serve Wu Niang." ”

View: ......

After half a ring, he said again: "Qiuyue and Qiushuang persuaded you at the beginning, but you were obsessed, and there are not so many grasses to eat in this world." ”

Xia Yun was stunned for a moment, and cried again.

"If you don't have any plans for the time being, go to Xianghe Zhuangzi to stay, as long as your hands and feet are diligent, food and clothing will not be a problem." Yijing was impatient to talk to her more, turned to look at Mama Jiang's mother and son, and saw that they had almost finished talking, and re-entered.

Mama Jiang is also a person who knows people's eyes, and after listening to her children talk about the tragic experiences in the Song family over the years, if it weren't for the beautiful scenery that rescued them in time, her life would have almost broken in the hands of that gentleman, and her heart ached, thinking of Mama Song's words of relief over the years, she hated her so much that she gritted her teeth.

immediately pulled the children to kneel on the ground: "The slave and maid family has been rescued by the princess, but the princess has instructions, and the slave and maid family would rather go to the soup and fire." ”

Yijing looked at Mama Jiang for a long time before raising her hand, letting them get up, motioning for Sister Qiao'er to take her younger brother out, and said slowly: "Mama, Yinchai died at your hands after all, if I let you vote for the official, are you willing?" ”

Mama Jiang was not surprised, gritted her teeth and said: "It was the slave and maid who made the killing, and the slave and maid were willing to pay for their lives and testify against the Song family." ”

is a person who understands, and he asked again: "I don't have anything for you to do, only one thing, do you know what kind of collusion Mama Song has with her mother?" ”

In addition to letting Mama Jiang testify against the Song family, so that she could not escape the death penalty, there is a more important thing, that is, about Aunt Zhang's accident this time. Mama Jiang is Mama Song's "murder weapon" and Aunt Zhang's cronies, Yijing guesses that she should know some things, even if she can't use this to prove the Huang family, but once her stepmother's malice is confirmed, she will be able to take every step in the future, and she will have no scruples.

Mama Jiang bowed her head heavily——
