Chapter 275: The Jiang Family's Housewife Comes
"You and the prince, but really nothing?"
Regarding Jiang Yuyan's words, in fact, Jiang Xu believes it. And if she hadn't had feelings for this concubine, she wouldn't have let people deliver the letter to the palace that day, and she also said good things to the queen.
Although their Jiang family is only a side branch, when she married into the Jiang family, the Qinghe Jiang family had not yet produced a queen, and Jiang Yanyue was just the daughter of the Jiang family.
She is also well-organized, because the Jiang family lives very closely, so she gets along well with the queen, and it can be said that she still has some feelings with the queen.
It's just that no amount of affection can match the benefits. The daughter of her own nephew is still like this, not to mention that a Jiang Yuyan is just a cousin and nephew?
Hearing this, Jiang Yuyan's forehead was swollen, and she said in a trembling voice: "My daughter swears with her life, if there is anything to do with it, my daughter will not die well!"
When she said this, she said sadly: "In the past two days, my daughter has thought about this matter repeatedly, and I am afraid that this matter is not aimed at her daughter, but at His Royal Highness the Prince." It's just a cheap life for her daughter, if the matter is not clarified, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be the one who suffers the most from the unjustified disaster. β
And if the prince finds out the facts, then her innocence will be proven.
If the prince is fine, she may be fine.
Jiang Yuyan was very clear about these things in her heart, and she had been thinking about it for the past two days, and when she saw Jiang Xu's coming today, she said what she thought in her heart.
Hearing Jiang Yuyan's words, Jiang Xu wanted to say something, but he didn't say it, but just said: "Yan'er, you have followed your mother for so many years, you should know what kind of character I am." If I can protect you, I will. It's justβ"
She sent Jiang Yuyan to hell with one sentence: "This order was given by the queen." β
She didn't say it explicitly, but Jiang Yuyan's face was as white as paper, and she suddenly fell to the ground.
The next moment, Jiang Yuyan was heard crying in a broken heart: "Mother, please save me!"
The woman in front of her was crying and collapsed, and the tears in her eyes couldn't stop dripping, which made Jiang Xu's heart a little soft-hearted.
Although she has no feelings for the concubines and concubines in the family, she has been by her side for so many years, even if she is a cat or a dog, she has to have some affection.
What's more, Jiang Yuyan has been quite obedient over the years, and she is satisfied with her work.
But in the end, Jiang Xu just said: "Yan'er, I can't save you." β
She can't be saved.
Who would dare to disobey the queen's order? Moreover, the queen saw her earlier feelings, and ordered someone to explain to her, saying: "Now rumors are spreading in the government and the opposition, and only when she dies can they stop." β
Jiang Xu didn't understand this truth, so he came in person.
She came to see Jiang Yuyan on the road in person, one was to reassure the queen, and the other was to see her before she died.
She is not hard-hearted, and she has a lot of patience for Jiang Yuyan.
"Good boy, if you have any wishes, tell your mother, and she will do it for you. β
If she has a wish she wants to achieve, he can help her fulfill her mind.
Jiang Yuyan raised her head and said with tears in her eyes: "Mother, Yan'er just wants to live." β
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Xu's expression became indifferent, and he said, "You are not a foolish child. β
It is precisely because you are not confused that you want to live in this world even more!
Jiang Yuyan knew that Jiang Xu was angry, so she tried her best to calm down her emotions and wiped the tears on her face.
When tears are useless, only strategy is the best. Jiang Xu is right, she can't save herself, so she can only save herself.
She had to figure out a way.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Jiang Xu didn't urge her, sat on the chair and closed her eyes to recuperate, but there was a lot of unbearability in her expression.
Jiang Yuyan quietly glanced at Jiang Xu's family, and asked softly, "Queen Mother, how do you want me to go?"
Hearing her speak, Jiang Xu pinched his eyebrows and said, "After I leave, you will repair a book, and the Tao is a rumor that harms you, and you will be innocent with death." As for...... Death, you pick. β
Whether the hanging beam is thrown into the lake, it will not have anything to do with the Jiang family after all.
"So, what happens after I die?"
Jiang Xu sighed and said, "After you die, the Jiang family will seek justice for you." β
It's not so much to seek justice for her, but to make a big deal for the prince to get justice.
After all, one of the parties has died, is it possible that the rumors from the government and the opposition still want to force another prince to death?
Naturally, they didn't dare.
And the emperor will not only appease the Jiang family, but also the crown prince.
At that time, the victim will become the beneficiary, and only one Jiang Yuyan will be sacrificed.
It's a good deal.
"It works. β
Jiang Yuyan stopped crying at this time, and her voice was calm: "It's just, has my mother ever thought about something?"
Jiang Xu didn't expect her to ask herself, because she asked, "What's the matter?"
Jiang Yuyan cried for a while, her voice was a little hoarse, but she gradually calmed down inside: "If I die, maybe the incident will not develop in the direction you want, but will evolve in another direction." For example, the Jiang family and the prince forced me to death in order to protect themselves. β
"This ......"
Jiang Xu suddenly frowned and said, "The queen will not let things develop like this. β
"Come to think of it, the queen doesn't want the prince to suffer any harm, but aren't the rumors still spreading?
When Jiang Yuyan said this, without waiting for Jiang Xu to speak, she continued: "I have a cheap life, but it's nothing if I die. But perhaps what you are trying will not succeed, and others will be even more suspicious of the prince. After all, my mother only walked on her front foot, and it didn't take long for me to die, so anyone would think of something, right?"
This is true.
There are two sides to everything, and the way they are thinking may be right, however, if something goes wrong in the middle, maybe they will really change the direction as Jiang Yuyan said.
"What do you mean?"
Hearing Jiang Xu's words, Jiang Yuyan knew that things had taken a turn for the better.
She bent down, solemnly kowtowed, and said, "Only if I am alive will people not continue to doubt the prince." Because, let's sit upright. Moreover, mother should not forget one thing, before I got married, the emperor announced that I would enter the palace, do you think he asked me to gossip about homely things?"
She only said this, and she successfully made Jiang Xu frown.
She knew about this, but the eunuch who sent Jiang Yuyan back once instructed him indirectly, saying: "What should not be inquired about, Mrs. Jiang must rot her curiosity in her stomach." β
Therefore, even though Jiang Xu was very curious about this, he never even asked Jiang Yuyan a word.
What did the emperor tell her to do, and why did she make a special call?
At this time, when Jiang Yuyan mentioned it, Jiang Xu's family was also out of proportion.
She was silent for a long time before she said: "It's just that it's useless for you to tell me these things, after all, it is the queen's order." β
And she, can only execute.
However, it's not completely impossible.
"Today you can persuade me, but I hope that tomorrow, you can do the same to move the queen. β
Hearing Jiang Xu's words, Jiang Yuyan quietly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then said softly: "Daughter, thank you mother." β
Seeing her slamming her head on the ground, her forehead bleeding faintly, Jiang Xu sighed and said, "Don't thank me, you should know that it's useless to thank me." β
This concubine has always been an honest and responsible person since she was a child, but she doesn't want to be now, but she has a faint edge.
I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.
"On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the wife wants to enter the palace to ask for peace. Although you are a side concubine, you are in the royal spectrum. If you want to survive, you can go to the queen yourself. β
Jiang Xu said this in a row, and if she could help Jiang Yuyan, she could only go here.
After all, this concubine was also raised by herself.
"Yes. β
Regarding Jiang Xu's words, Jiang Yuyan lowered her eyebrows and responded respectfully.
"Alright, get up, it's cold on the ground. β
Jiang Xu got up and helped her up, and said, "I remember that your knee is not very good, beware of the recurrence of old injuries." β
When she was in the house, because Jiang Yuyan was loved by Jiang Xu's family, she was pushed down the lotus pond by another concubine.
It was already winter, and the little child was almost drowned, but fortunately, someone passed by and saved her life.
It's just that since then, Jiang Yuyan's health has not been very good, and this joint has to suffer every year.
And the concubine's punishment was even worse, she was carried out of the family law by Master Jiang and whipped thirty times, and sent directly to the family temple.
Until now, the child is still in the family temple, the eighteen-year-old girl, let alone being kissed, the Jiang family will forget that there is such a young lady.
At that time, Jiang Xu had also pondered how much Jiang Yuyan deliberately wanted to do in this matter, just thinking about her as a five-year-old child, and she didn't have so much scheming. In addition, I observed it later, so I gradually let go of my mind.
But looking at it now, she feels that Jiang Yuyan may not be able to do it.
Perhaps, I have always mistaken this concubine.
"Thank you mother for your concern, my daughter is fine. β
Jiang Yuyan got up with her strength, and a smile regained on her face.
She ordered someone to wash her face with water, and wiped some rouge again, as if the tears had never existed.
Now she is no longer the girl who begged for a living under Jiang Xu's hands, and she no longer needs to bow down and disguise herself.
Now, if she wants to live, she has to change her life.
Like making yourself useful.
And a cowardly concubine who can be abandoned at any time will obviously not be useful to the Jiang family.
For the time being, Jiang Xu's dispelled the idea of getting rid of himself, so Jiang Yuyan asked his subordinates to bring a dim sum plate and sit to talk to Jiang Xu's family.
In fact, the mother and daughter have nothing to say.
After all, it is not biological, even if there is some affection over the years, it is almost nothing.
So after sitting for a while, Jiang Xu got up and prepared to leave.
Jiang Yuyan reluctantly sent her out and personally helped her into the carriage: "Mother is slower on the road, come to the house to sit when she has nothing to do, and her daughter will recite scriptures and pray for you every day." β
These words were a little weird, but Jiang Xu didn't take it to heart, nodded and smiled: "Okay, you can go back too, it's cold, don't stick here." β
Jiang Yuyan responded with a smile, still standing in place and watching the carriage leave.
When the carriage was gone, he turned and went back to his room.
"Go down, all of you. β
After Jiang Yuyan returned to the room, she first sent people away, and then removed the pearl jade on her head and threw it on the dresser.
The sound of the jade colliding made a crisp sound, which was particularly loud in this small room.
Jiang Yuyan looked at herself in the bronze mirror and slowly put away her smile.
And in those eyes, a layer of coldness appeared.
originally thought that when Jiang Xu's family came today, there might be blame. She was also prepared, at most she would be scolded.
Who knows, Jiang Xu's family actually came directly to send her into the ghost gate!
