Chapter 179: The Nightmare Begins! (Above)
Xiao Huanxi's eyes widened and he froze in place, and the tea cup fell from his hand and fell to the ground with a clatter.
After the ladies were gone, Xiao Fengjue walked up to her from outside the door: "You can die now, no matter how much I plan, you will never want to have anything to do with Chu Junyi again." ”
"No...... No, father, eldest brother, I just ......" Xiao Huanxi was so flustered that he was incoherent in his heart, and it took a while to smooth out his thoughts, "Even if the rumors get out, it's nothing, I just like Brother Junyi, is it wrong for me to like someone?" ”
Xiao Fengjue closed his eyes, he should have been furious, but now that he has released a little fire, he has completely despaired of this sister:
"Xiao Huanxi, you are really stupid! Father, find someone to marry her far away. ”
Xiao Jingran seemed to have aged ten years for a while, and his always upright and serious face was full of vicissitudes: "Huanxi, you ...... this time"
Xiao Huanxi knelt on the ground with a thud and shook her head frantically:
"Father, don't listen to your eldest brother, I don't want to marry someone else, why should I marry someone else? Shen Ninghua has already agreed that I will stay with Brother Junyi, my wish is about to come true, why should I marry someone else? ”
Xiao Jingran gritted his teeth: "Your mother didn't get married, I was afraid that your brothers and sisters had never married again, but now I think it hurt you!" Ning Hua, do you know what it means for a woman who has not left the cabinet to return overnight? ”
"What?" Xiao Huanxi shook his head in a daze.
"You didn't return overnight, if you were placed in an ordinary people's home, it is estimated that you would have been forced to die a long time ago, because you have no name!"
Xiao Huanxi retorted sharply: "There was nothing that night, I was just trapped, locked in the courtyard in the suburbs all night, and nothing happened!" ”
"Who can prove it?"
"I ......" Xiao Huanxi froze in place, and looked up sharply for a while, "Father, nothing really happened to me, it was Shen Ninghua who ordered me to shut me out, and it was only at dawn that people opened the door for me!" ”
Xiao Jingran stroked her hair painfully:
"Shen Ninghua knows what's the use, she will help you speak? Moreover, if there is no such thing as today, I will help you plan well, maybe there will be a turnaround, but you actually want to hang yourself in order to marry Chu Junyi, you are going to die by yourself! ”
"Father, things are already like this, there is no way to undo anything, you help me, you help me! You are the emperor's most trusted courtier, and the Xiao family is the protector of the Da'an Dynasty, as long as you want to do it, who dares to stop it! ”
Xiao Jingran sighed, turned around and walked out: "Take a good look at your young lady, don't let her have an accident." "This kid can't tell the Xiao family's current situation at all......
Children are the debt of their parents! Even if Xiao Huanxi is not successful now and has caused such a big mess, he still has to find a way to reverse how much he can, unless he has to, he doesn't want to marry his daughter far away, if it is really irretrievable, he can only let her stay away from Kyoto.
Xiao Jingran left here to find a way, but Xiao Huanxi was almost desperate.
"Even if my father was angry before, he wouldn't leave like this...... "Father really doesn't care about her anymore...... The panic of being abandoned made her heart almost stop, and she kept pinching her palms to calm down a little.
The maid stepped forward: "Miss, get up quickly, it's cold on the ground." ”
Xiao Huanxi's face was hideous, and he suddenly picked up the tea cup on the ground and smashed it at the maid's head: "It's all your fault, it's all your slut, if you hadn't asked me to sit down and rest for a while, how could I be so ugly today, come on, come on, drag her down for me, beat!" Hit hard! ”
The maid's forehead was broken, and the blood left a face, Xiao Huanxi was clearly going to beat her to death, thinking, she stood up suddenly, took the tea cup porcelain on the ground and slashed it on her forehead, and then ran desperately in the direction where the ladies left.
"Help, help! Kill! ”
As soon as the ladies arrived at the door, they were about to get into the carriage and drive away, when they saw a maid with a bloody face rushing out from the gate of the Xiao family: "Madame save me, the eldest lady wants to kill me out of anger, I have no choice but to escape, please Madame save my life!" ”
Mrs. Shao Shi of the Ministry of War frowned tightly: "To beat people like this, although this is a slave, but it can't be easily killed, in the end, it is a human life." ”
"Who said it wasn't, I think Miss Xiao couldn't hang herself and take out her anger at this little girl."
"You can't send people back, otherwise you'll be killed."
The maid seemed frightened: "If I don't go back, I'll die if I go back." As he spoke, he ran frantically towards the outside of the house.
Xiao Fengjue rushed over with someone, but was blocked by several ladies: "Xiao Gongzi, that maid didn't make any big mistakes, why bother taking her life." ”
"Several ladies, the maid signed a death contract, life and death are naturally dealt with by the Xiao family, just now my sister was just angry and out of control, so she accidentally injured her, and she wanted to take it down to recuperate, but let her run away. She looks a little sane, if she misses and hurts someone outside, it's not good, come to someone, don't chase someone back quickly. ”
Since it is a death contract, it is difficult for them to interfere.
Several ladies got into the carriage and left, and their impression of Xiao Huanxi became worse and worse.
In the princess's mansion, Shen Ninghua was flipping through the chess games in the room, and Hongling walked in quickly to report:
"Miss, our people have already acted, and Lu Shu has already escaped from the Xiao family, but her forehead is injured."
"Forehead injury?" Shen Ninghua was stunned, Lu Shu was the person she had placed in the Xiao family before, and she was just thinking about having one more eyeliner in case of emergency, but she didn't expect it to play a big role now. Without her guidance, Xiao Huanxi would not have died like this.
"Yes, there is news that she was smashed by Xiao Huanxi with a tea cup, in order to enhance the effect, she cut her forehead with a porcelain piece, and then jumped into the moat to get out when the Xiao family guards were chasing her, and now the Xiao family's guards are still salvaging in the moat."
Shen Ninghua's heart moved: "Well, I'll give you medicine, and you let people give it to Lu Shu, which can ensure that she doesn't leave a scar." In addition, you arrange for someone to send her to Jiangnan, if she is still willing to stay with me, you can arrange for her to be in Huajun Medicine, if she wants to be free, you give her enough money and let her arrange it herself. ”
"Yes, miss. You've thought so much for her. Hongling smiled.
Shen Ninghua smiled: "Okay, hurry up and arrange it, don't let the Xiao family find out about the horses' feet." ”
Watching Hongling leave, Shen Ninghua hooked the corners of her lips slightly: "Xiao Huanxi is completely finished this time." ”
In less than a day, the matter about Xiao Huanxi in Kyoto has been rumored, and some people originally thought that the Xiao family's century-old family, coupled with the fact that the Xiao family is very strict, should not raise such a daughter, but as soon as Xiao Huanxi forced the maid to death came out, no one spoke anymore.
That day, the guards of the Xiao family chased a maid with a head covered in blood, and finally the maid jumped into the river, which they had seen with their own eyes.
When Xiao Jingran heard all kinds of rumors, he fell ill directly.
Xiao Fengjue invited a doctor to settle Xiao Huanxi again, and the rumors reached the point of no return.
Chu Junyi went out to listen to the recent situation of Huajun Pharmacy, and returned to the Xiao family again, and the entire mansion had a stormy atmosphere.
Xiao Fengjue was waiting outside his yard: "Are you back?" ”
Chu Junyi stood still, the expression on his face unchanged: "Big brother, are you waiting for me?" ”
"For the sake of a woman, you are really courageous to abandon the Xiao family."
"I don't understand what Big Brother is talking about?"
"Today's events, one after another, the time card is excellent, I haven't reacted here, the matter is irretrievable, in the end, the emperor personally gave the title of Princess Zhaohua, this means is not ordinary. If such a woman marries home, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be peaceful in the backyard. ”
Chu Junyi was silent and didn't answer his words, but his expression did not waver at all.
Xiao Fengjue's eyes burned with anger, with a monstrous anger of forbearance: "I don't understand, what good is it for you to ruin the Xiao family!" Is it worth it for a Shen Ninghua? ”
"Big brother, you don't really want to protect something, when you find it, you will understand how I feel now, it has nothing to do with whether it is worth it or not, just because you want to do it."
"Heh, I really can't understand your so-called protection, you took this step today, don't think about looking back in this life."
"I have a clear conscience, no regrets, and no need to look back."
"I have a clear conscience, you don't care about the Xiao family and your nurturing grace, you don't care about your father's teaching to you, you don't care about the love between Huanxi and your brother and sister, I ...... You can also ignore your brotherly affection, this is your clear conscience? You just have no shame for Shen Ninghua! ”
Chu Junyi's face was condensed, his eyes stared at a bush of grass and trees on the ground, and his eyes were filled with bursts of light: "I remember the grace of nurturing, the love of teaching, and the brotherhood, and I remember it clearly, if the Xiao family needs it, I can repay it to you, but Shen Ninghua is only one for me, and I will regret it for the rest of my life if I miss her!" ”
Chu Junyi paused slightly, and then said word by word: "So, I can be sorry for anyone, but I can't be sorry for her!" ”
"Okay, it's really affectionate, then I'll see how long your relationship can last!" Xiao Fengjue's eyes were sharp, like a cold sword out of the sheath, with an unstoppable momentum after being tempered by ice and fire.
Chu Junyi did not show weakness, and his majestic momentum came out, which was prohibitive: "Then big brother, you should take a good look." ”
In the room, the candle flame was affected by the momentum between the two, constantly jumping back and forth, and it took a while before it slowly regained its calm.
Xiao Huanxi had a nightmare all night, and it wasn't until the morning that she suddenly woke up, clutching her chest and gasping fiercely, calming the fear in her dream, but she didn't know that today was the beginning of her nightmare.
She got up and wanted to drink some tea, suddenly there was a commotion at the door, the noise made people uneasy, and before she could have a seizure, someone kicked the door open, and the four mothers-in-law stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Huanxi, pressed her down on the bed, and began to check her clothes.
"Who are you, let go of me, let go of me! Help me! ”
