The rich and noble peasant daughter
Chapter 157
Chapter 157
Yun Shen knew about Ye Yinglan's insult to Yun Xi last night, but he didn't let it go so easily.
He went directly to Nanya County, and as the son of the dignified prince, he appealed for Yun Xi, his fiancée, and sued Ye Yinglan for framing and insulting his fiancée, Du Yunxi.
Yun Xi is the head of the county, and even though Ye Yinglan has some money, she is still a commoner, but she insulted and even framed Yun Xi, and she still doesn't know how to repent, so she must be sentenced.If not punished, wouldn't it be telling the common people that they can learn from her in the future.
Although it wasn't long before Yun Shen returned to his identity, legends about him had already spread in the land of Da Chu.Many people even blame Yun Shen for the abolition of the crown prince and the seizure of the queen's palace power.If it hadn't been for their failure to conspire to seize Yunshen's identity, how could the emperor be furious and find an excuse to abolish the crown prince.
As a result, when Yun Shen went to the Nanya County Government Office in person, the county magistrate immediately escorted Ye Yinglan over after receiving the pleadings.
Yun Shen directly asked several women from Nanya County who were at the banquet to be witnesses. They had all seen Ye Yinglan's rampant and shameless behavior at the banquet.
Lai San danced and described the scene with Yun Xi.
"It's a pity that the girl was not at the scene, and she didn't see Ye Yinglan's distorted expression at that time. She never thought that not only did Prince Yun not have the slightest sympathy, but he wanted the county magistrate to punish her severely."
The corners of Yun Xi's lips curled up. Ye Yinglan didn't know how she was cultivated by the Ye family to cultivate such a high self-esteem.She never thought that there are really men in this world who treat her like dung, and feel disgusted even if they look at her more than once.
This is the biggest blow to her.
In addition, Yun Xi had invited so many people at that time, among them were the magistrate's wife and Tongzhi's wife, who were considered to be of high status in Chuzhou.As long as there is no lack of witnesses, the Ye family will not be able to change the facts even if they quibble. Instead, they will aggravate the criminal law because they know their mistakes and do not correct them.
In the end, Ye Yinglan was beaten with a cane for [-] boards, and her body was bloody, and finally she was thrown into a prison, at least for a period of time.The reputation of the Ye family was also completely ruined. Ye Yinglan, let alone marrying into a wealthy family, even ordinary people would not want to have such a daughter-in-law with a bad reputation.
It is precisely for this reason that Mrs. Ye came to the Du family.She had a bit of a brain, and knew that if she went to Yun Shen, she might end up no better than her daughter.
It's a pity that it would be fine if she apologized sincerely, but she still wanted to use scheming to oppress Yun Xi and plot against Yun Xi, but Yun Xi severely rectified her.
The reason why the Bai family is so eager to get rid of the relationship is that they are afraid of being implicated by the Ye family.Anyone can see that the Ye family is going to be completely devastated.
Yun Xi was very useful in her heart, and the reason why Yun Shen came forward in person was simply to use Ye Yinglan's incident as an example to others.He can also choose to rectify secretly, but the sensational effect caused is definitely far inferior to acting like this.
I'm afraid that after this news gets out, other people who want to send the beauty over will think it over.If Yun Shen was caught with a crime and sued directly in front of the public, there would be an uproar at that time.
Yun Xi would probably be jealous to death by women all over the world.There is such a fiancé who protects her and refuses to let her suffer any grievances.
No matter how envious she is, she will not give it up to others.
She turned her head, with a serene smile on her lips, "Didn't anyone say that he was too fussy with a woman like this, that he was too vengeful?" There are quite a few people who don't feel pain in their backs when they stand and talk these days.
Lai San nodded, "Young lady is really smart. A person from Nanya County said that he acted too harshly. Ye Yinglan has already learned her lesson, so why don't you let her go."
The smile on the corner of Yun Xi's mouth turned into sarcasm, "The knife didn't stab him, so he naturally didn't feel the pain."
Lai Sandao: "It is said that Jia Juren's wife is his child bride-in-law. She works hard, bears children for him, and serves her parents-in-law. Therefore, although Jia Juren doesn't like this wife, he can't find a reason to divorce her. His wife Not only did she give birth to two sons and a daughter, but she also kept her father-in-law's filial piety, which is within the scope of three not to go. He wants her to go down, unless he wants his own reputation to be ruined. Perhaps it is for this reason that he only thinks about it with all his heart. I want to take a beautiful concubine. It's a pity that his mother raises her daughter-in-law as a daughter, so naturally she refuses."
Yun Xi sneered and said, "So he's still a shameless person." Those who can speak for Ye Yinglan have problems with the Three Views of Morality.Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this matter is Ye Yinglan's fault.
Lai San said: "At that time, Shizi Yun never gave this Jia Juren any face in the court."
"If I turn a blind eye to other people's insults to my fiancée, isn't this telling the world that insulting her at will will not pay the price?"
"Although my fiancée has a kind heart and doesn't bother to argue with such villains, I am the one who will repay her the most. If someone dares to insult her or scold her, I will repay her tenfold!"
"If a man can't protect his fiancée, then he is worse than dead."
"A person like you who thinks it's a trivial matter for his wife to be insulted, and even speaks out for the murderer, is nothing more than an irresponsible soft-legged shrimp."
Lai San imitated Yun Shen's tone and spoke out his resounding words in the courtroom one by one.
A smile mixed with sweetness and joy appeared on Yun Xi's face. If a man really puts you in his heart, he would naturally go and pinch off the rotten peach blossoms himself.
"In the end, Jia Juren could only make excuses. The sage said that one should repay grievances with kindness."
Yun Xi smiled instead. In this era...there are also sage's words and poems that are quite consistent with those in the previous life.
"I remember that the sage clearly said, how can you repay kindness with virtue? Repay grievance with straightness, and repay virtue with virtue."
Lai San clapped his palms and laughed, "Shizi Yun said the same thing, and he doubted how Jia Juren got his fame. It's like distorting the words of a sage."
"That Jia Juren was flushed with embarrassment and couldn't say a word. Now Nanya County is calling him a soft-legged shrimp. Many literati don't bother to be with him, thinking that he is misinterpreting indiscriminately in public. The words of a saint."
Yun Xi nodded in satisfaction. For a scholar, the most important thing is reputation.Even if he is a Juren, if he has a bad reputation, it is not easy to become an official. The superiors will not easily let a person with a bad reputation become an official. Isn't this asking for a braid?
She continued to ask, "Has Yun Shen returned from Nanya County?" Nanya County is not too far from Fenghuang County.A few hours will come.
Lai San smiled, "Shizi Yun will probably come back later. But I guess he will be home tonight."
From what Lai San said, Yun Xi understood almost everything she should understand.
She continued: "In a few days, I will take Madam Yu to the Lingyin Temple in the state capital. I heard that Xiao Si also believes in Buddhism. Do you want her to go there with us?"
Lai San directly agreed for his younger sister, "Okay, I will tell Xiao Si when I get back. Xiao Si will definitely be willing." He only has such a precious sister.
Thinking of the lovely little four, Yun Xi also felt a little regretful.Xiao Si is handsome and handsome, and he also has an older brother like Lai San.In the eyes of people in Fenghuang County, Lai San earned such a property as Wanshiwu, which can be said to be a model of a prodigal son who never returns for money.He also loves Xiaosi very much, he keeps half of the money he usually earns for himself, and the other half is given to his sister as a dowry.Logically speaking, the condition of Xiao Si is very good.Just because she couldn't speak, she was greatly discounted.
Yun Xi has a good impression of Xiao Si, and thinks that Xiao Si deserves to be treated by a good man.She also let Dr. Wang look at Xiao Si's throat. At that time, Dr. Wang only said that Xiao Si couldn't speak, and it was more of a heart disease.It would be fine if she could read and write, but she has a headache whenever she sees a book, and now she can only write her own name.Yun Xi taught Xiao Si how to settle accounts, but she studied very hard.
She also only hoped that one day, Xiaosi's heart disease could be completely relieved.
Lai San should report, and the report is almost done, so he is ready to go back.
Yun Xi then turned back to her yard and told her family and friends the whole story of the Ye family.Everyone has only one comment on Ye Yinglan's fate, that is, she deserved it and she deserved it.
When Du Zhou heard what Yun Shen did, he was even more satisfied, and the last trace of grievances about Yun Shen's identity in his heart disappeared.No matter how high Yun Shen's status is and how many crazy bees and butterflies are around him, as long as he can hold on to himself and is willing to treat Yun Xi well, then there is nothing to worry about.
As for Yan Ling, Yi Yun and the others, while they were happy for Yun Xi, they couldn't help thinking of themselves.They also don't know if their future husband will be able to devote himself to Yun Xi like Yun Shen, and will protect Yun Xi to the extreme.
Yan Ling even found that if it was before, she would definitely think of her cousin immediately, and even think about their future.But now it is different.She hadn't thought of this person for a long time, and when she thought of him, she no longer felt the sadness and unwillingness of the past.It seemed that the crazy liking before was just a dream.
The dream was broken, and she woke up.
After talking to them about these things, Yun Xi reckoned that the rabbit meat in the kitchen was almost marinated, so she turned back and started preparing for dinner.
In order to make this orange rabbit meat, she also asked people to go outside to buy chrysanthemum stuffed which is unique to this season.Put the rabbit meat into the pot, add the chrysanthemum stuffing, put the chopped bamboo shoots and chives into the pot, and stir fry together.
As for the oranges, cut them into small pieces after the rabbit meat comes out of the pan, and place them in a circle around the rabbit meat.
After Yun Xi was done, thinking of Yun Shen, when serving, she took out a plate and filled another plate for him.
She rummaged through the ingredients in the kitchen.Perhaps because there are guests at home these few days, the types of ingredients are very rich, and it can be said that everything is available.
Yun Xi remembered that Yun Shen didn't know how long he would be back at night, and if he made other meals, it would probably be cold by then.
After thinking about it, she decided to make husband and wife lung slices and Guoqiao rice noodles.Husband and wife lung slices are a kind of marinated ingredients, and they are full of flavor when eaten cold.The husband and wife lung slices are made of beef scalp, beef heart, beef tongue, tripe, and beef as the main ingredients, and are marinated.The husband and wife lung slices made are extremely delicious.
As for the bridge noodle, she first prepares the soup that needs to be used. The soup used for the bridge noodle needs to be boiled for a long time with big bones, old hen, and ham.For the rest of the materials, there is still time to make them when Yun Shen comes back later.
She cooked orange rabbit meat and couple's lung slices, and handed over the rest to Mrs. Tang and the others.Now she doesn't cook all the time like before.According to the two nuns, she can cook once in a while, but if she cooks too often, her hands will not be easy to maintain.
Nanny comes from the palace, and she knows a lot of secret recipes for body maintenance.
Yun Xi followed the recipe they gave her, and she really felt that her fingers were much slimmer and more beautiful.It is human nature to love beauty, and she still remembers some suggestions from the two nuns very carefully.
After dinner, as soon as she returned to her room, she received the news that Yun Shen had returned.
Yun Shen's house is next door to the Du's house, and the concierge, Uncle Zhang, just needs to pay a little attention to notice his return.
Yun Xi turned back to the kitchen and made the bridge rice noodles.
Then let someone deliver the three dishes to the next door, and then go back to the room in peace.
After washing and washing, she changed her clothes, and with a sudden thought, she picked up the coat on the hanger, batched it up, and then went to the study.
In the study, although the lights were not lit, Yun Xi could sense the familiar atmosphere inside when she was still at the door.
There was a faint smile on her lips, and she knew that after the meal, Yun Shen would definitely act as a "gentleman on the beam" and sneak into the study.Since the arrival of the two nuns, the study room has almost become a secret base for their tryst.
She entered the study room, closed the door, and then lit the oil lamp in the dark, and the orange light illuminated the not-so-large study room.
She looked at Yun Shen, whose eyes became brighter and brighter under the light. She clearly wanted to say a lot to him in her heart, but in the end she just asked, "Do you like the few dishes I sent someone tonight?"
Yun Shen nodded, and said meaningfully: "What you do is naturally good. Especially the couple's lung slices are especially delicious."
Yun Xi couldn't help but give Yun Shen a blank look. Although the couple's lung slices are delicious, Yun Shen is not the kind of person who likes spicy food.He likes this dish simply because the name of this couple's lung slice is deeply in his heart.
Yun Shen knew that Yun Xi already knew what he had done, so he didn't intend to repeat it again, "From now on, I'm afraid they won't dare to provoke you again. Ye Yinglan will have to stay in the cell for at least half a year before she can come out."
Yun Xi smiled, "There are not many people as brainless as the Ye family." The Ye family got Yun Shen's idea because they had tasted the sweetness of sending their daughter as a concubine before.
Yun Shen said: "Ye Yinglan's father is also a ruthless person. He has already divorced Mrs. Ye, and brought in the outer house, together with a pair of twins."
Yun Xi was stunned, "It's true that husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes."
Yun Shen disagreed with this statement, "They are them, and I am me. If it were me, no matter what happens, I will never leave you behind."
Yun Xi was just expressing emotion casually, seeing Yun Shen's serious look, she couldn't help laughing, "Okay, that's them, of course we won't."
Yun Xi was very satisfied with the fate of the sisters and Mrs. Ye.As for Mrs. Ye's husband, the fate was not much better.Previously, the Ye family's business was booming because Ye Yingmei was favored in the prefect's backyard, and everyone was willing to give the Ye family this face.
Ren Zhifu didn't want to offend Yun Shen, the prince of the country, because of Ye Yingmei, and Ye Yingmei's fate could be imagined.Losing the prefect's support and everyone knowing Yun Shen's dislike for their family, I'm afraid that there will be many people who will fall into trouble at that time.Whether the Ye family can keep [-]% of their current property is still a question.
Yun Xi remembered what happened during the day, and simply asked Yun Shen, "Do you understand Su Wan?" She was asking for Mingyue's sake.
Yun Shen asked, "Which Su Wan?" How could he pay attention to other women?
Yun Xi said: "I heard from Mingyue that the empress originally gave her a marriage to Wen Yanhui, but Wen Yan went back and asked the emperor to dissolve the marriage." To be honest, the main reason for this is that the empress did not act kindly.At that time, the Su family belonged to the prince's power, and the empress wanted to add a support for the prince. Su Wan was said to be a famous lady in the capital, and there were countless people who admired her.Only then did the queen want to use her to bind Wen Yanhui.Who knew that Wen Yanhui would actually reject the marriage, embarrassing both the queen and the Su family.
"It's her." With Yun Xi's introduction, Yun Shen recalled something, "Su Wan's grandfather was a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and had countless students, but it's a pity that because of his son's support for the prince, the old man lost his life. "
For that Mr. Su, Yun Shen still had basic respect, but for Su Wan's father, that was pure irony.Is it so easy to get it from the dragon's merit?In fact, as long as the Su family remains neutral, as long as Mr. Su is still there, their position will be very stable.However, Su Wan's father, Su Meng, actually dragged the family down because of pursuing the illusory glory and wealth.
Yun Shen sat down and said: "Su Meng, that is Su Wan's father, because of the prince, he got the position of the young minister of Dali Temple. As a result, the prince was abolished, and he also suffered a disaster, and his position was taken away. His father Su Sheng, he can be regarded as a respectable old man, and because of this, he was splashed with some sewage."
Yun Xi roughly understood, "Is that why the Su family pinned their hopes on Wen Yanhui?"
They need a strong in-law to help them out of this quagmire.
Wen Yan Huigui is the Marquis, with real power in his hands, and the trusted confidant of the emperor, so it is naturally the best choice.In addition, Su Wan's reputation has been greatly damaged because of her previous rejection of relatives.But if the two families reconcile, they will be good for a hundred years.On the contrary, the previous divorce can be covered up by the Su family as a good story.
Yun Shen said: "What did the Su family do?" Although he paid attention to the movements of the capital, he was more concerned with the government affairs.
Yun Xi told about the fact that Su Wan and the maid went to Taiqing Temple together.
Yun Shen rarely teased and said: "Besides Mr. Su, there are other smart people in the Su family who know to start with Mingyue. In fact, they made the right choice. If Mingyue likes Su Wan, Wenyan will look at it later." For her sake, she will also marry that Su Wan."
The corners of Yun Xi's mouth curled up in a sarcastic arc, "It's just that they want something from others, but they still put on a high air and look down on Mingyue. They think that Mingyue is young and will be fooled easily. They really treat others as fools playing."
Not to mention that there is also a Wuweizi in the temple, he knows all this clearly, can he not be angry for his disciple?
Su Wan's behavior not only offended Mingyue, but Wuweizi would also be offended at that time.
Yun Shen said: "You don't have to worry. As long as Mingyue stays with you, Su Wan will have to go back to the capital in a short time."
Even if Wuweizi is the head of Taoism, he is still a man after all.Originally, there was an excuse to take care of Mingyue, but Mingyue had left, so Su Wan and the others had the nerve to live in the Taoist temple.
Hearing a lot of gossip from Yun Shen and meeting his people, Yun Xi drove him back to rest contentedly.
When she woke up early in the morning, Yun Xi suddenly felt much colder.
I simply added a thin down jacket inside. The thickness of this thing is less than two millimeters, so it doesn't show up when worn inside.
After changing clothes and having breakfast, Mingyue clamored to go out to play.Because the weather turned cold today, Yun Xi specially put on an extra coat with a hood for her. The red hood was inlaid with a circle of white fox fur, not to mention how cute it was.
Yun Xi knew that she was in a bad mood these days, and wanted to make her relax, so she nodded and agreed.
Mingyue snapped her fingers and talked about where she wanted to play and what she wanted to eat today, "I want to buy candied haws made by Mrs. Wang, as well as sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and chrysanthemum cakes. I also want to go swimming in the lake..."
She said this bluntly, completely forgetting that she responded to Su Wan bluntly yesterday, saying that she didn't like candied haws.
Yun Yao teased, "Would you like to write down everything, lest your head can't remember."
Mingyue nodded, "Good idea!" Then she took out a pen and paper, and began to write one by one, writing very seriously.
Yun Xi looked at Mingyue and Yunyao with a smile while they were fighting.
Suddenly the concierge came over and said to Yun Xi: "Miss, there is Miss Su looking for you outside the door."
Su Wan?Yun Xi's first reaction was her.
She looked at Mingyue, who was dancing with joy on the brows, and didn't want to ruin Mingyue's rare good mood because of this incident.The surname Su is not uncommon, and several of her friends in Fenghuang County have the surname Su.So the others didn't seem to react to Su Wan's head yet.
Yun Xi nodded slightly, "I'll go out and have a look."
When she went out, it was indeed Su Wan and her maid Hong Xing standing at the door of Du's house.Although it looked like there were only the two of them, Yun Xi felt that the Su family must have sent someone to secretly follow Su Wan and the others to do protection work.
Yun Shen also revealed to her that Su Wan was the most outstanding girl of the Su family's generation - even if her reputation was ruined because of being rejected, the Su family would not just give up on her.Of course, the Su family she lives in has nothing to do with the Su family Wu Weizi lives in. They may have been one family at most 500 years ago.
This one was previously in the capital, and it is said that he was also called the Orchid Fairy.It's just that Yun Xi felt that no matter how outstanding she was, her heart was doomed. She really deserved the title of Orchid Fairy.
Orchids symbolize the noble and elegant spirit.
Yun Xi didn't want to bring their master and servant into her yard, so as not to be seen by Ming Yue and Yan Ling.Yanling has always had a strong sense of justice, and when she saw them appearing, she probably couldn't help stabbing them.
She simply took it to the east wing.The east wing room was originally arranged for Du Lei and Du Rui, two little kids, to live in when they grow up.The two children are still babies now, and they could vaguely pronounce the sounds of father and mother a few days ago.It is very agile to get up, and it looks like a child with strong limbs.
For this pair of cousins, Yun Xi directly spread a thick layer of blankets in their room, and wrapped the table corners and other sharp places with cloth to prevent the children from accidentally falling or bumping.
As for the courtyard of the east wing, Yun Xi planted pomegranate trees in the courtyard.
Winter is coming and some leaves on the pomegranate tree are wilting.
Because the yard is cleaned every day, it is still clean.
Talking here, Yun Xi is not afraid that someone will hear their conversation.
She sat down directly on the stone bench, "Sit down too."
Su Wan hesitated for a moment, but sat down in front of her.She twitched the corners of her mouth and showed a gentle smile, "I didn't expect that you are the legendary Lord Du." Compared with her reputation that can be replaced by others at any time, the girl in front of her is A well-deserved legend.
In less than half a year, he became a county lord from a commoner.No matter how many people are envious and jealous, no one can deny her achievements.Two disputes broke out in the court because of her.Even if those ministers objected, they objected to her promotion being too fast.
And although she is sought after by everyone as the orchid fairy, part of the reason is because of her appearance, talent and learning, as well as her deliberate management of character, and the other part is the public opinion guided by the Su family.And this reputation is as fragile as a mirror in the water and a castle in the air.
When she was returned by Wen Yan, her reputation was ruined.But because of her father's request, she had no choice but to go back and please the Wen family.
Yun Xi looked at her with a forced smile, and said, "You didn't come here today to talk to me about these things, did you?"
It's better to say it directly, and don't go around in circles.She doesn't have that much time to waste with her.It is estimated that Su Wan is used to saying a word in the capital and going around several times, making people dizzy.
Su Wan smiled wryly, "You probably hate my stalking approach."
Yun Xi didn't speak, isn't this obvious?
Su Wan's eyes were slightly red, but she barely smiled, "But Wen Yan is the only choice I have. If I don't marry into the Wen family, I'm afraid that my family will marry a dude in the capital after I go back."
"I don't understand why I tried my best to be nice to Mingyue, but she still refused to buy it."
Hong Xing also couldn't help interjecting: "If it wasn't for Lord Wenhou's refusal to marry at that time, my young lady wouldn't be gossiped by those people in the capital, saying that she must have some shortcomings, so that Lord Wenhou would risk it." The danger of angering the Queen and the Crown Prince must be rejected!"
She seemed to be a maid who defended her young lady.
Yun Xi raised her eyebrows and said, "I thought that giving a marriage is a matter of icing on the cake when the two families have a tacit understanding. Before giving the marriage, did you ask Wen Yanhui for his opinion?"
If the Su family had asked Wen Yanhui, Wen Yanhui might never agree.Just because Su Wan's father belongs to the prince, they are doomed to be impossible.
"My lady is so nice, what is he not satisfied with? The lady tried her best to put down her body and was very kind to Miss Wen, but Miss Wen still doesn't like us."
Yun Xi said lightly: "Your Majesty is still the most powerful and powerful person in the world, why are so many people unwilling to enter the palace?" She glanced at Hong Xing and said, "As for why Mingyue doesn't like you, because she just She's just a concubine, and she was afraid that being courted by you would ruin her fortune, so she hid here with me."
The irony in her words made Su Wan's face turn pale.
Yun Xi directly opened up what they said behind their backs, she wanted to see if they still had the face to say how kind they were to Mingyue.
"You have to trade your sincerity. Although Mingyue is small, she has eyes, and she doesn't want to be hypocritical."
"I really don't understand. It's obvious that you are seeking from the Wen family. Where did you get such a sense of superiority? Now it's your Su family who needs Wen Yanhui's right, not Wen Yanhui who needs you."
"Even if Wen Yan comes back to marry and have children, even if there are so-called legitimate sons and daughters, their status in his heart will not be higher than that of Mingyue."
She had wanted to say these words for a long time.What she said was not wrong, Wen Yanhui had indeed said something similar.
The last trace of blood on Su Wan's face was completely gone, and her lips trembled slightly.
She sniffled and said to Hong Xing: "Go outside and watch over."
Hong Xing glanced at Yun Xi, a little reluctantly, "Miss." As if she was afraid that Yun Xi would bully her young lady.
Su Wan's face darkened, "Are you unwilling to listen to my words?"
Only then did Hongxing leave hesitantly.
Seeing her walking posture, Yun Xi suddenly raised her eyebrows.
She smiled at Su Wan, "Come on, would you like to accompany me to the room for a while?"
She felt as if she had discovered something interesting.
Su Wan seemed surprised by her sudden relaxation, but she still nodded.
Yun Xi stood up and chose a room at random.She didn't forget to use the ability on the plants in the yard.In this way, if someone came, she would be able to notice it immediately, and besides... it could be regarded as a kind of surveillance.
After entering the room, she looked at Su Wan, and asked straight to the point: "Your maid knows kung fu, do you know that?"
"Huh?" From Su Wan's dazed eyes, it was clear that she definitely didn't know.
The corner of Yun Xi's mouth curled up in a sarcastic arc. The person Su Wan brought here must be her confidant, but she, the master, doesn't know her completely, and doesn't even know that she knows martial arts.
Hongxing's walking is very interesting. The distance between each step is the same, and the sound of landing is also the same.This is obviously the result of people who learn martial arts deliberately making walking sounds.For example, Yun Xi originally had this problem, but it was corrected by Yun Shen.
He said that it would be easy for people to notice the depth of her martial arts, and the more she controlled her, the more outstanding her martial arts would be.But if the kind of walking is completely indistinguishable from ordinary people, then it has reached the realm of returning to nature.
"I, I don't know." Su Wan's eyes were truly hurt, "Hong Xing has been with me since I was seven years old, and has saved me many times." She is also the person she trusts the most, but she But she didn't even know that she knew martial arts.She even alienated her nanny for her sake.
Yun Xi said: "Let me analyze it for you now. If you don't even know that she knows martial arts, it seems that you have to be careful about her." She recalled that after meeting this master and servant, she found that every time she talked to Su Wan , or when Su Wan talks to others, she always likes to come out to hate Su Wan, but in the name of standing up for her and doing her good.
Like yesterday, she was the one who caused the trouble, but both she and Yan Ling hated Su Wan because of it.After all, in everyone's eyes, the servant girl would show such an attitude, isn't it the master's instigation?
People who practice martial arts have pretty good hearing. With Hongxing's hearing, can she not hear the footsteps of a little girl named Mingyue?
She must have heard it, but she said those words on purpose. On the one hand, she angered Mingyue, and on the other hand, she was brainwashing Su Wan.If there was someone beside her who talked day and night about how wronged Su Wan was, Su Wan would probably think the same way over time.
She calmly recounted every word Hong Xing said that she remembered, and analyzed the effect of hatred it had on the way.
Su Wan's face became paler and paler, she bit her lower lip tightly, so she didn't faint.
As if grabbing the last straw, she raised her head, "What should I do?"
Yun Xi said: "As your confidant, she knows a lot of things about you. If you break with her, she who holds a lot of your secrets will probably reveal them directly."
Su Wan seemed to have thought of this possibility, but she still said stubbornly: "I didn't do anything to offend anyone." The implication was that she had a clear conscience.
Yun Xi felt that this person was really blind with a seemingly smart face, "She can fabricate it, she knows you so well. For example, take your bellyband and give it to a rogue, or imitate your handwriting and write a letter to someone, Create the illusion that you are having a tryst with someone."
There are many ways.
As her words unfolded, Su Wan thought of these very likely things, and she almost fainted.To Yun Xi's surprise, although her face was pale, she did not collapse because of it, but looked at her seriously, as if she wanted to hear her continue.
The reason why Yun Xi analyzed these things with her was not out of kindness.It's just a random chess game on a whim, and she doesn't know if it will come in handy in the future.She doesn't ask to instigate her against her, but it's not difficult to plant a seed in the heart of the other party.
On the other hand, it can be regarded as helping Wen Yanhui and Ming Yue.Otherwise, Su Wan's desperate situation might lead to some bad consequences if she took the risk.
"What would you do if you were me?"
Yun Xi said indifferently: "At least I won't obey the wishes of my family and do things against my will. Do you want to marry Wen Yanhui because you like her, or is it because of the wishes of your family?"
Su Wan fell into deep thought silently, and shook her head slowly after a while, "I don't know. Wen Yanhui is an upright man, and it would be a lie to say that he has no feelings for him. It's just that after being rejected and made a laughingstock , more unwillingly. My father asked me to come here to curry favor with Mingyue, and try to marry him, no matter what means I use... I just feel humiliated, but I have to do it. I don't want to be sent out as a commodity."
Even if grandpa could protect her for a while, he couldn't protect her for a lifetime.What's more, grandpa was already sick in bed because of his father's affairs.She didn't want her grandpa to know about it, so she got angry and hurt her body instead.Even if she went out of Beijing this time, she still kept it from her grandfather.She can only find the best way out for herself.There is no doubt that Wen Yanhui is the best choice.
"If it were you, what would you do?" She couldn't help asking.Perhaps because her most trusted maid betrayed her, Su Wan instead asked Yun Xi, a stranger.
Yun Xi said lightly: "If I were you, I would have the criminal evidence against your father Su Meng."
She showed a gentle and harmless smile, "If he wants a loving father and a filial daughter, then I can barely cooperate. But if he wants to sell me as a commodity at a good price, then don't blame me for being a fish."
Su Wan was dumbfounded, she didn't seem to expect her so-called method to be this, she fell into deep thought for a moment.
Yun Xi said: "This is just one of the methods. There are several other methods, such as choosing a partner before he promises a marriage. It doesn't matter if the status is not high, as long as he treats you sincerely. The worst strategy is to fake death and leave All of this, but if this is the case, he will lose his current identity. Ah, there is another way, which is to enter the palace. The emperor's woman, he naturally dare not think about anything else."
Su Wan thought about it thoughtfully, and then she came back to her senses, "The most urgent thing is to send Hongxing back to the capital first, and then find out who is behind her."
Her eyes seemed to become firm at this moment.
She looked at Yun Xi and said, "Thank you, you are such a good person. At this time, help me without hesitation."
The corner of Yun Xi's mouth twitched, did she get a good person card?
She was about to say something when suddenly the plants in the yard sent her the message that the red apricot was coming.
Yun Xi suddenly grasped Su Wan's hand with her left hand, Su Wan blushed, subconsciously wanting to break free.Yun Xi quickly wrote the word "coming" on her palm.
Su Wan understood it, it means that Hong Xing is here.She is more sad than angry.
She clearly asked Hong Xing to wait outside, but Hong Xing came over secretly, which undoubtedly confirmed the problem with her.
Yun Xi squinted her eyes, silently manipulating the plants in the yard.
"Plop..." The red apricot outside was tripped by a plant.
Yun Xi opened the door and went out with Su Wan.Seeing the two of them, Hongxing got up from the ground.
Su Wan looked dissatisfied, "Didn't I tell you to wait for me outside?"
Hong Xing said: "Miss, I heard that you have not moved for a long time, so I was worried about what she would do to you, so I came in to take a look."
If it was her in the past, Su Wan might be moved by Hong Xing's loyalty.After being named, she looked at all this with only a touch of sadness in her heart: she was so kind to Hongxing, she could be described as a sister, but Hongxing used this method to repay her.
Hongxing was still performing her superb acting, "I won't let you hurt my lady."
Su Wan looked at this scene and said, "Hongxing, go back to the capital."
Su Wan was about to turn black, and then went back to Beijing to engage in big things.
When Yun Xi returns to Beijing in the future and knows what she has done, she must be very surprised: This is definitely not the silly Baitian I know.
Well, in Yun Xi's eyes, she is just a silly and sweet girl right now.
(End of this chapter)
Yun Shen knew about Ye Yinglan's insult to Yun Xi last night, but he didn't let it go so easily.
He went directly to Nanya County, and as the son of the dignified prince, he appealed for Yun Xi, his fiancée, and sued Ye Yinglan for framing and insulting his fiancée, Du Yunxi.
Yun Xi is the head of the county, and even though Ye Yinglan has some money, she is still a commoner, but she insulted and even framed Yun Xi, and she still doesn't know how to repent, so she must be sentenced.If not punished, wouldn't it be telling the common people that they can learn from her in the future.
Although it wasn't long before Yun Shen returned to his identity, legends about him had already spread in the land of Da Chu.Many people even blame Yun Shen for the abolition of the crown prince and the seizure of the queen's palace power.If it hadn't been for their failure to conspire to seize Yunshen's identity, how could the emperor be furious and find an excuse to abolish the crown prince.
As a result, when Yun Shen went to the Nanya County Government Office in person, the county magistrate immediately escorted Ye Yinglan over after receiving the pleadings.
Yun Shen directly asked several women from Nanya County who were at the banquet to be witnesses. They had all seen Ye Yinglan's rampant and shameless behavior at the banquet.
Lai San danced and described the scene with Yun Xi.
"It's a pity that the girl was not at the scene, and she didn't see Ye Yinglan's distorted expression at that time. She never thought that not only did Prince Yun not have the slightest sympathy, but he wanted the county magistrate to punish her severely."
The corners of Yun Xi's lips curled up. Ye Yinglan didn't know how she was cultivated by the Ye family to cultivate such a high self-esteem.She never thought that there are really men in this world who treat her like dung, and feel disgusted even if they look at her more than once.
This is the biggest blow to her.
In addition, Yun Xi had invited so many people at that time, among them were the magistrate's wife and Tongzhi's wife, who were considered to be of high status in Chuzhou.As long as there is no lack of witnesses, the Ye family will not be able to change the facts even if they quibble. Instead, they will aggravate the criminal law because they know their mistakes and do not correct them.
In the end, Ye Yinglan was beaten with a cane for [-] boards, and her body was bloody, and finally she was thrown into a prison, at least for a period of time.The reputation of the Ye family was also completely ruined. Ye Yinglan, let alone marrying into a wealthy family, even ordinary people would not want to have such a daughter-in-law with a bad reputation.
It is precisely for this reason that Mrs. Ye came to the Du family.She had a bit of a brain, and knew that if she went to Yun Shen, she might end up no better than her daughter.
It's a pity that it would be fine if she apologized sincerely, but she still wanted to use scheming to oppress Yun Xi and plot against Yun Xi, but Yun Xi severely rectified her.
The reason why the Bai family is so eager to get rid of the relationship is that they are afraid of being implicated by the Ye family.Anyone can see that the Ye family is going to be completely devastated.
Yun Xi was very useful in her heart, and the reason why Yun Shen came forward in person was simply to use Ye Yinglan's incident as an example to others.He can also choose to rectify secretly, but the sensational effect caused is definitely far inferior to acting like this.
I'm afraid that after this news gets out, other people who want to send the beauty over will think it over.If Yun Shen was caught with a crime and sued directly in front of the public, there would be an uproar at that time.
Yun Xi would probably be jealous to death by women all over the world.There is such a fiancé who protects her and refuses to let her suffer any grievances.
No matter how envious she is, she will not give it up to others.
She turned her head, with a serene smile on her lips, "Didn't anyone say that he was too fussy with a woman like this, that he was too vengeful?" There are quite a few people who don't feel pain in their backs when they stand and talk these days.
Lai San nodded, "Young lady is really smart. A person from Nanya County said that he acted too harshly. Ye Yinglan has already learned her lesson, so why don't you let her go."
The smile on the corner of Yun Xi's mouth turned into sarcasm, "The knife didn't stab him, so he naturally didn't feel the pain."
Lai Sandao: "It is said that Jia Juren's wife is his child bride-in-law. She works hard, bears children for him, and serves her parents-in-law. Therefore, although Jia Juren doesn't like this wife, he can't find a reason to divorce her. His wife Not only did she give birth to two sons and a daughter, but she also kept her father-in-law's filial piety, which is within the scope of three not to go. He wants her to go down, unless he wants his own reputation to be ruined. Perhaps it is for this reason that he only thinks about it with all his heart. I want to take a beautiful concubine. It's a pity that his mother raises her daughter-in-law as a daughter, so naturally she refuses."
Yun Xi sneered and said, "So he's still a shameless person." Those who can speak for Ye Yinglan have problems with the Three Views of Morality.Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this matter is Ye Yinglan's fault.
Lai San said: "At that time, Shizi Yun never gave this Jia Juren any face in the court."
"If I turn a blind eye to other people's insults to my fiancée, isn't this telling the world that insulting her at will will not pay the price?"
"Although my fiancée has a kind heart and doesn't bother to argue with such villains, I am the one who will repay her the most. If someone dares to insult her or scold her, I will repay her tenfold!"
"If a man can't protect his fiancée, then he is worse than dead."
"A person like you who thinks it's a trivial matter for his wife to be insulted, and even speaks out for the murderer, is nothing more than an irresponsible soft-legged shrimp."
Lai San imitated Yun Shen's tone and spoke out his resounding words in the courtroom one by one.
A smile mixed with sweetness and joy appeared on Yun Xi's face. If a man really puts you in his heart, he would naturally go and pinch off the rotten peach blossoms himself.
"In the end, Jia Juren could only make excuses. The sage said that one should repay grievances with kindness."
Yun Xi smiled instead. In this era...there are also sage's words and poems that are quite consistent with those in the previous life.
"I remember that the sage clearly said, how can you repay kindness with virtue? Repay grievance with straightness, and repay virtue with virtue."
Lai San clapped his palms and laughed, "Shizi Yun said the same thing, and he doubted how Jia Juren got his fame. It's like distorting the words of a sage."
"That Jia Juren was flushed with embarrassment and couldn't say a word. Now Nanya County is calling him a soft-legged shrimp. Many literati don't bother to be with him, thinking that he is misinterpreting indiscriminately in public. The words of a saint."
Yun Xi nodded in satisfaction. For a scholar, the most important thing is reputation.Even if he is a Juren, if he has a bad reputation, it is not easy to become an official. The superiors will not easily let a person with a bad reputation become an official. Isn't this asking for a braid?
She continued to ask, "Has Yun Shen returned from Nanya County?" Nanya County is not too far from Fenghuang County.A few hours will come.
Lai San smiled, "Shizi Yun will probably come back later. But I guess he will be home tonight."
From what Lai San said, Yun Xi understood almost everything she should understand.
She continued: "In a few days, I will take Madam Yu to the Lingyin Temple in the state capital. I heard that Xiao Si also believes in Buddhism. Do you want her to go there with us?"
Lai San directly agreed for his younger sister, "Okay, I will tell Xiao Si when I get back. Xiao Si will definitely be willing." He only has such a precious sister.
Thinking of the lovely little four, Yun Xi also felt a little regretful.Xiao Si is handsome and handsome, and he also has an older brother like Lai San.In the eyes of people in Fenghuang County, Lai San earned such a property as Wanshiwu, which can be said to be a model of a prodigal son who never returns for money.He also loves Xiaosi very much, he keeps half of the money he usually earns for himself, and the other half is given to his sister as a dowry.Logically speaking, the condition of Xiao Si is very good.Just because she couldn't speak, she was greatly discounted.
Yun Xi has a good impression of Xiao Si, and thinks that Xiao Si deserves to be treated by a good man.She also let Dr. Wang look at Xiao Si's throat. At that time, Dr. Wang only said that Xiao Si couldn't speak, and it was more of a heart disease.It would be fine if she could read and write, but she has a headache whenever she sees a book, and now she can only write her own name.Yun Xi taught Xiao Si how to settle accounts, but she studied very hard.
She also only hoped that one day, Xiaosi's heart disease could be completely relieved.
Lai San should report, and the report is almost done, so he is ready to go back.
Yun Xi then turned back to her yard and told her family and friends the whole story of the Ye family.Everyone has only one comment on Ye Yinglan's fate, that is, she deserved it and she deserved it.
When Du Zhou heard what Yun Shen did, he was even more satisfied, and the last trace of grievances about Yun Shen's identity in his heart disappeared.No matter how high Yun Shen's status is and how many crazy bees and butterflies are around him, as long as he can hold on to himself and is willing to treat Yun Xi well, then there is nothing to worry about.
As for Yan Ling, Yi Yun and the others, while they were happy for Yun Xi, they couldn't help thinking of themselves.They also don't know if their future husband will be able to devote himself to Yun Xi like Yun Shen, and will protect Yun Xi to the extreme.
Yan Ling even found that if it was before, she would definitely think of her cousin immediately, and even think about their future.But now it is different.She hadn't thought of this person for a long time, and when she thought of him, she no longer felt the sadness and unwillingness of the past.It seemed that the crazy liking before was just a dream.
The dream was broken, and she woke up.
After talking to them about these things, Yun Xi reckoned that the rabbit meat in the kitchen was almost marinated, so she turned back and started preparing for dinner.
In order to make this orange rabbit meat, she also asked people to go outside to buy chrysanthemum stuffed which is unique to this season.Put the rabbit meat into the pot, add the chrysanthemum stuffing, put the chopped bamboo shoots and chives into the pot, and stir fry together.
As for the oranges, cut them into small pieces after the rabbit meat comes out of the pan, and place them in a circle around the rabbit meat.
After Yun Xi was done, thinking of Yun Shen, when serving, she took out a plate and filled another plate for him.
She rummaged through the ingredients in the kitchen.Perhaps because there are guests at home these few days, the types of ingredients are very rich, and it can be said that everything is available.
Yun Xi remembered that Yun Shen didn't know how long he would be back at night, and if he made other meals, it would probably be cold by then.
After thinking about it, she decided to make husband and wife lung slices and Guoqiao rice noodles.Husband and wife lung slices are a kind of marinated ingredients, and they are full of flavor when eaten cold.The husband and wife lung slices are made of beef scalp, beef heart, beef tongue, tripe, and beef as the main ingredients, and are marinated.The husband and wife lung slices made are extremely delicious.
As for the bridge noodle, she first prepares the soup that needs to be used. The soup used for the bridge noodle needs to be boiled for a long time with big bones, old hen, and ham.For the rest of the materials, there is still time to make them when Yun Shen comes back later.
She cooked orange rabbit meat and couple's lung slices, and handed over the rest to Mrs. Tang and the others.Now she doesn't cook all the time like before.According to the two nuns, she can cook once in a while, but if she cooks too often, her hands will not be easy to maintain.
Nanny comes from the palace, and she knows a lot of secret recipes for body maintenance.
Yun Xi followed the recipe they gave her, and she really felt that her fingers were much slimmer and more beautiful.It is human nature to love beauty, and she still remembers some suggestions from the two nuns very carefully.
After dinner, as soon as she returned to her room, she received the news that Yun Shen had returned.
Yun Shen's house is next door to the Du's house, and the concierge, Uncle Zhang, just needs to pay a little attention to notice his return.
Yun Xi turned back to the kitchen and made the bridge rice noodles.
Then let someone deliver the three dishes to the next door, and then go back to the room in peace.
After washing and washing, she changed her clothes, and with a sudden thought, she picked up the coat on the hanger, batched it up, and then went to the study.
In the study, although the lights were not lit, Yun Xi could sense the familiar atmosphere inside when she was still at the door.
There was a faint smile on her lips, and she knew that after the meal, Yun Shen would definitely act as a "gentleman on the beam" and sneak into the study.Since the arrival of the two nuns, the study room has almost become a secret base for their tryst.
She entered the study room, closed the door, and then lit the oil lamp in the dark, and the orange light illuminated the not-so-large study room.
She looked at Yun Shen, whose eyes became brighter and brighter under the light. She clearly wanted to say a lot to him in her heart, but in the end she just asked, "Do you like the few dishes I sent someone tonight?"
Yun Shen nodded, and said meaningfully: "What you do is naturally good. Especially the couple's lung slices are especially delicious."
Yun Xi couldn't help but give Yun Shen a blank look. Although the couple's lung slices are delicious, Yun Shen is not the kind of person who likes spicy food.He likes this dish simply because the name of this couple's lung slice is deeply in his heart.
Yun Shen knew that Yun Xi already knew what he had done, so he didn't intend to repeat it again, "From now on, I'm afraid they won't dare to provoke you again. Ye Yinglan will have to stay in the cell for at least half a year before she can come out."
Yun Xi smiled, "There are not many people as brainless as the Ye family." The Ye family got Yun Shen's idea because they had tasted the sweetness of sending their daughter as a concubine before.
Yun Shen said: "Ye Yinglan's father is also a ruthless person. He has already divorced Mrs. Ye, and brought in the outer house, together with a pair of twins."
Yun Xi was stunned, "It's true that husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes."
Yun Shen disagreed with this statement, "They are them, and I am me. If it were me, no matter what happens, I will never leave you behind."
Yun Xi was just expressing emotion casually, seeing Yun Shen's serious look, she couldn't help laughing, "Okay, that's them, of course we won't."
Yun Xi was very satisfied with the fate of the sisters and Mrs. Ye.As for Mrs. Ye's husband, the fate was not much better.Previously, the Ye family's business was booming because Ye Yingmei was favored in the prefect's backyard, and everyone was willing to give the Ye family this face.
Ren Zhifu didn't want to offend Yun Shen, the prince of the country, because of Ye Yingmei, and Ye Yingmei's fate could be imagined.Losing the prefect's support and everyone knowing Yun Shen's dislike for their family, I'm afraid that there will be many people who will fall into trouble at that time.Whether the Ye family can keep [-]% of their current property is still a question.
Yun Xi remembered what happened during the day, and simply asked Yun Shen, "Do you understand Su Wan?" She was asking for Mingyue's sake.
Yun Shen asked, "Which Su Wan?" How could he pay attention to other women?
Yun Xi said: "I heard from Mingyue that the empress originally gave her a marriage to Wen Yanhui, but Wen Yan went back and asked the emperor to dissolve the marriage." To be honest, the main reason for this is that the empress did not act kindly.At that time, the Su family belonged to the prince's power, and the empress wanted to add a support for the prince. Su Wan was said to be a famous lady in the capital, and there were countless people who admired her.Only then did the queen want to use her to bind Wen Yanhui.Who knew that Wen Yanhui would actually reject the marriage, embarrassing both the queen and the Su family.
"It's her." With Yun Xi's introduction, Yun Shen recalled something, "Su Wan's grandfather was a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and had countless students, but it's a pity that because of his son's support for the prince, the old man lost his life. "
For that Mr. Su, Yun Shen still had basic respect, but for Su Wan's father, that was pure irony.Is it so easy to get it from the dragon's merit?In fact, as long as the Su family remains neutral, as long as Mr. Su is still there, their position will be very stable.However, Su Wan's father, Su Meng, actually dragged the family down because of pursuing the illusory glory and wealth.
Yun Shen sat down and said: "Su Meng, that is Su Wan's father, because of the prince, he got the position of the young minister of Dali Temple. As a result, the prince was abolished, and he also suffered a disaster, and his position was taken away. His father Su Sheng, he can be regarded as a respectable old man, and because of this, he was splashed with some sewage."
Yun Xi roughly understood, "Is that why the Su family pinned their hopes on Wen Yanhui?"
They need a strong in-law to help them out of this quagmire.
Wen Yan Huigui is the Marquis, with real power in his hands, and the trusted confidant of the emperor, so it is naturally the best choice.In addition, Su Wan's reputation has been greatly damaged because of her previous rejection of relatives.But if the two families reconcile, they will be good for a hundred years.On the contrary, the previous divorce can be covered up by the Su family as a good story.
Yun Shen said: "What did the Su family do?" Although he paid attention to the movements of the capital, he was more concerned with the government affairs.
Yun Xi told about the fact that Su Wan and the maid went to Taiqing Temple together.
Yun Shen rarely teased and said: "Besides Mr. Su, there are other smart people in the Su family who know to start with Mingyue. In fact, they made the right choice. If Mingyue likes Su Wan, Wenyan will look at it later." For her sake, she will also marry that Su Wan."
The corners of Yun Xi's mouth curled up in a sarcastic arc, "It's just that they want something from others, but they still put on a high air and look down on Mingyue. They think that Mingyue is young and will be fooled easily. They really treat others as fools playing."
Not to mention that there is also a Wuweizi in the temple, he knows all this clearly, can he not be angry for his disciple?
Su Wan's behavior not only offended Mingyue, but Wuweizi would also be offended at that time.
Yun Shen said: "You don't have to worry. As long as Mingyue stays with you, Su Wan will have to go back to the capital in a short time."
Even if Wuweizi is the head of Taoism, he is still a man after all.Originally, there was an excuse to take care of Mingyue, but Mingyue had left, so Su Wan and the others had the nerve to live in the Taoist temple.
Hearing a lot of gossip from Yun Shen and meeting his people, Yun Xi drove him back to rest contentedly.
When she woke up early in the morning, Yun Xi suddenly felt much colder.
I simply added a thin down jacket inside. The thickness of this thing is less than two millimeters, so it doesn't show up when worn inside.
After changing clothes and having breakfast, Mingyue clamored to go out to play.Because the weather turned cold today, Yun Xi specially put on an extra coat with a hood for her. The red hood was inlaid with a circle of white fox fur, not to mention how cute it was.
Yun Xi knew that she was in a bad mood these days, and wanted to make her relax, so she nodded and agreed.
Mingyue snapped her fingers and talked about where she wanted to play and what she wanted to eat today, "I want to buy candied haws made by Mrs. Wang, as well as sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and chrysanthemum cakes. I also want to go swimming in the lake..."
She said this bluntly, completely forgetting that she responded to Su Wan bluntly yesterday, saying that she didn't like candied haws.
Yun Yao teased, "Would you like to write down everything, lest your head can't remember."
Mingyue nodded, "Good idea!" Then she took out a pen and paper, and began to write one by one, writing very seriously.
Yun Xi looked at Mingyue and Yunyao with a smile while they were fighting.
Suddenly the concierge came over and said to Yun Xi: "Miss, there is Miss Su looking for you outside the door."
Su Wan?Yun Xi's first reaction was her.
She looked at Mingyue, who was dancing with joy on the brows, and didn't want to ruin Mingyue's rare good mood because of this incident.The surname Su is not uncommon, and several of her friends in Fenghuang County have the surname Su.So the others didn't seem to react to Su Wan's head yet.
Yun Xi nodded slightly, "I'll go out and have a look."
When she went out, it was indeed Su Wan and her maid Hong Xing standing at the door of Du's house.Although it looked like there were only the two of them, Yun Xi felt that the Su family must have sent someone to secretly follow Su Wan and the others to do protection work.
Yun Shen also revealed to her that Su Wan was the most outstanding girl of the Su family's generation - even if her reputation was ruined because of being rejected, the Su family would not just give up on her.Of course, the Su family she lives in has nothing to do with the Su family Wu Weizi lives in. They may have been one family at most 500 years ago.
This one was previously in the capital, and it is said that he was also called the Orchid Fairy.It's just that Yun Xi felt that no matter how outstanding she was, her heart was doomed. She really deserved the title of Orchid Fairy.
Orchids symbolize the noble and elegant spirit.
Yun Xi didn't want to bring their master and servant into her yard, so as not to be seen by Ming Yue and Yan Ling.Yanling has always had a strong sense of justice, and when she saw them appearing, she probably couldn't help stabbing them.
She simply took it to the east wing.The east wing room was originally arranged for Du Lei and Du Rui, two little kids, to live in when they grow up.The two children are still babies now, and they could vaguely pronounce the sounds of father and mother a few days ago.It is very agile to get up, and it looks like a child with strong limbs.
For this pair of cousins, Yun Xi directly spread a thick layer of blankets in their room, and wrapped the table corners and other sharp places with cloth to prevent the children from accidentally falling or bumping.
As for the courtyard of the east wing, Yun Xi planted pomegranate trees in the courtyard.
Winter is coming and some leaves on the pomegranate tree are wilting.
Because the yard is cleaned every day, it is still clean.
Talking here, Yun Xi is not afraid that someone will hear their conversation.
She sat down directly on the stone bench, "Sit down too."
Su Wan hesitated for a moment, but sat down in front of her.She twitched the corners of her mouth and showed a gentle smile, "I didn't expect that you are the legendary Lord Du." Compared with her reputation that can be replaced by others at any time, the girl in front of her is A well-deserved legend.
In less than half a year, he became a county lord from a commoner.No matter how many people are envious and jealous, no one can deny her achievements.Two disputes broke out in the court because of her.Even if those ministers objected, they objected to her promotion being too fast.
And although she is sought after by everyone as the orchid fairy, part of the reason is because of her appearance, talent and learning, as well as her deliberate management of character, and the other part is the public opinion guided by the Su family.And this reputation is as fragile as a mirror in the water and a castle in the air.
When she was returned by Wen Yan, her reputation was ruined.But because of her father's request, she had no choice but to go back and please the Wen family.
Yun Xi looked at her with a forced smile, and said, "You didn't come here today to talk to me about these things, did you?"
It's better to say it directly, and don't go around in circles.She doesn't have that much time to waste with her.It is estimated that Su Wan is used to saying a word in the capital and going around several times, making people dizzy.
Su Wan smiled wryly, "You probably hate my stalking approach."
Yun Xi didn't speak, isn't this obvious?
Su Wan's eyes were slightly red, but she barely smiled, "But Wen Yan is the only choice I have. If I don't marry into the Wen family, I'm afraid that my family will marry a dude in the capital after I go back."
"I don't understand why I tried my best to be nice to Mingyue, but she still refused to buy it."
Hong Xing also couldn't help interjecting: "If it wasn't for Lord Wenhou's refusal to marry at that time, my young lady wouldn't be gossiped by those people in the capital, saying that she must have some shortcomings, so that Lord Wenhou would risk it." The danger of angering the Queen and the Crown Prince must be rejected!"
She seemed to be a maid who defended her young lady.
Yun Xi raised her eyebrows and said, "I thought that giving a marriage is a matter of icing on the cake when the two families have a tacit understanding. Before giving the marriage, did you ask Wen Yanhui for his opinion?"
If the Su family had asked Wen Yanhui, Wen Yanhui might never agree.Just because Su Wan's father belongs to the prince, they are doomed to be impossible.
"My lady is so nice, what is he not satisfied with? The lady tried her best to put down her body and was very kind to Miss Wen, but Miss Wen still doesn't like us."
Yun Xi said lightly: "Your Majesty is still the most powerful and powerful person in the world, why are so many people unwilling to enter the palace?" She glanced at Hong Xing and said, "As for why Mingyue doesn't like you, because she just She's just a concubine, and she was afraid that being courted by you would ruin her fortune, so she hid here with me."
The irony in her words made Su Wan's face turn pale.
Yun Xi directly opened up what they said behind their backs, she wanted to see if they still had the face to say how kind they were to Mingyue.
"You have to trade your sincerity. Although Mingyue is small, she has eyes, and she doesn't want to be hypocritical."
"I really don't understand. It's obvious that you are seeking from the Wen family. Where did you get such a sense of superiority? Now it's your Su family who needs Wen Yanhui's right, not Wen Yanhui who needs you."
"Even if Wen Yan comes back to marry and have children, even if there are so-called legitimate sons and daughters, their status in his heart will not be higher than that of Mingyue."
She had wanted to say these words for a long time.What she said was not wrong, Wen Yanhui had indeed said something similar.
The last trace of blood on Su Wan's face was completely gone, and her lips trembled slightly.
She sniffled and said to Hong Xing: "Go outside and watch over."
Hong Xing glanced at Yun Xi, a little reluctantly, "Miss." As if she was afraid that Yun Xi would bully her young lady.
Su Wan's face darkened, "Are you unwilling to listen to my words?"
Only then did Hongxing leave hesitantly.
Seeing her walking posture, Yun Xi suddenly raised her eyebrows.
She smiled at Su Wan, "Come on, would you like to accompany me to the room for a while?"
She felt as if she had discovered something interesting.
Su Wan seemed surprised by her sudden relaxation, but she still nodded.
Yun Xi stood up and chose a room at random.She didn't forget to use the ability on the plants in the yard.In this way, if someone came, she would be able to notice it immediately, and besides... it could be regarded as a kind of surveillance.
After entering the room, she looked at Su Wan, and asked straight to the point: "Your maid knows kung fu, do you know that?"
"Huh?" From Su Wan's dazed eyes, it was clear that she definitely didn't know.
The corner of Yun Xi's mouth curled up in a sarcastic arc. The person Su Wan brought here must be her confidant, but she, the master, doesn't know her completely, and doesn't even know that she knows martial arts.
Hongxing's walking is very interesting. The distance between each step is the same, and the sound of landing is also the same.This is obviously the result of people who learn martial arts deliberately making walking sounds.For example, Yun Xi originally had this problem, but it was corrected by Yun Shen.
He said that it would be easy for people to notice the depth of her martial arts, and the more she controlled her, the more outstanding her martial arts would be.But if the kind of walking is completely indistinguishable from ordinary people, then it has reached the realm of returning to nature.
"I, I don't know." Su Wan's eyes were truly hurt, "Hong Xing has been with me since I was seven years old, and has saved me many times." She is also the person she trusts the most, but she But she didn't even know that she knew martial arts.She even alienated her nanny for her sake.
Yun Xi said: "Let me analyze it for you now. If you don't even know that she knows martial arts, it seems that you have to be careful about her." She recalled that after meeting this master and servant, she found that every time she talked to Su Wan , or when Su Wan talks to others, she always likes to come out to hate Su Wan, but in the name of standing up for her and doing her good.
Like yesterday, she was the one who caused the trouble, but both she and Yan Ling hated Su Wan because of it.After all, in everyone's eyes, the servant girl would show such an attitude, isn't it the master's instigation?
People who practice martial arts have pretty good hearing. With Hongxing's hearing, can she not hear the footsteps of a little girl named Mingyue?
She must have heard it, but she said those words on purpose. On the one hand, she angered Mingyue, and on the other hand, she was brainwashing Su Wan.If there was someone beside her who talked day and night about how wronged Su Wan was, Su Wan would probably think the same way over time.
She calmly recounted every word Hong Xing said that she remembered, and analyzed the effect of hatred it had on the way.
Su Wan's face became paler and paler, she bit her lower lip tightly, so she didn't faint.
As if grabbing the last straw, she raised her head, "What should I do?"
Yun Xi said: "As your confidant, she knows a lot of things about you. If you break with her, she who holds a lot of your secrets will probably reveal them directly."
Su Wan seemed to have thought of this possibility, but she still said stubbornly: "I didn't do anything to offend anyone." The implication was that she had a clear conscience.
Yun Xi felt that this person was really blind with a seemingly smart face, "She can fabricate it, she knows you so well. For example, take your bellyband and give it to a rogue, or imitate your handwriting and write a letter to someone, Create the illusion that you are having a tryst with someone."
There are many ways.
As her words unfolded, Su Wan thought of these very likely things, and she almost fainted.To Yun Xi's surprise, although her face was pale, she did not collapse because of it, but looked at her seriously, as if she wanted to hear her continue.
The reason why Yun Xi analyzed these things with her was not out of kindness.It's just a random chess game on a whim, and she doesn't know if it will come in handy in the future.She doesn't ask to instigate her against her, but it's not difficult to plant a seed in the heart of the other party.
On the other hand, it can be regarded as helping Wen Yanhui and Ming Yue.Otherwise, Su Wan's desperate situation might lead to some bad consequences if she took the risk.
"What would you do if you were me?"
Yun Xi said indifferently: "At least I won't obey the wishes of my family and do things against my will. Do you want to marry Wen Yanhui because you like her, or is it because of the wishes of your family?"
Su Wan fell into deep thought silently, and shook her head slowly after a while, "I don't know. Wen Yanhui is an upright man, and it would be a lie to say that he has no feelings for him. It's just that after being rejected and made a laughingstock , more unwillingly. My father asked me to come here to curry favor with Mingyue, and try to marry him, no matter what means I use... I just feel humiliated, but I have to do it. I don't want to be sent out as a commodity."
Even if grandpa could protect her for a while, he couldn't protect her for a lifetime.What's more, grandpa was already sick in bed because of his father's affairs.She didn't want her grandpa to know about it, so she got angry and hurt her body instead.Even if she went out of Beijing this time, she still kept it from her grandfather.She can only find the best way out for herself.There is no doubt that Wen Yanhui is the best choice.
"If it were you, what would you do?" She couldn't help asking.Perhaps because her most trusted maid betrayed her, Su Wan instead asked Yun Xi, a stranger.
Yun Xi said lightly: "If I were you, I would have the criminal evidence against your father Su Meng."
She showed a gentle and harmless smile, "If he wants a loving father and a filial daughter, then I can barely cooperate. But if he wants to sell me as a commodity at a good price, then don't blame me for being a fish."
Su Wan was dumbfounded, she didn't seem to expect her so-called method to be this, she fell into deep thought for a moment.
Yun Xi said: "This is just one of the methods. There are several other methods, such as choosing a partner before he promises a marriage. It doesn't matter if the status is not high, as long as he treats you sincerely. The worst strategy is to fake death and leave All of this, but if this is the case, he will lose his current identity. Ah, there is another way, which is to enter the palace. The emperor's woman, he naturally dare not think about anything else."
Su Wan thought about it thoughtfully, and then she came back to her senses, "The most urgent thing is to send Hongxing back to the capital first, and then find out who is behind her."
Her eyes seemed to become firm at this moment.
She looked at Yun Xi and said, "Thank you, you are such a good person. At this time, help me without hesitation."
The corner of Yun Xi's mouth twitched, did she get a good person card?
She was about to say something when suddenly the plants in the yard sent her the message that the red apricot was coming.
Yun Xi suddenly grasped Su Wan's hand with her left hand, Su Wan blushed, subconsciously wanting to break free.Yun Xi quickly wrote the word "coming" on her palm.
Su Wan understood it, it means that Hong Xing is here.She is more sad than angry.
She clearly asked Hong Xing to wait outside, but Hong Xing came over secretly, which undoubtedly confirmed the problem with her.
Yun Xi squinted her eyes, silently manipulating the plants in the yard.
"Plop..." The red apricot outside was tripped by a plant.
Yun Xi opened the door and went out with Su Wan.Seeing the two of them, Hongxing got up from the ground.
Su Wan looked dissatisfied, "Didn't I tell you to wait for me outside?"
Hong Xing said: "Miss, I heard that you have not moved for a long time, so I was worried about what she would do to you, so I came in to take a look."
If it was her in the past, Su Wan might be moved by Hong Xing's loyalty.After being named, she looked at all this with only a touch of sadness in her heart: she was so kind to Hongxing, she could be described as a sister, but Hongxing used this method to repay her.
Hongxing was still performing her superb acting, "I won't let you hurt my lady."
Su Wan looked at this scene and said, "Hongxing, go back to the capital."
Su Wan was about to turn black, and then went back to Beijing to engage in big things.
When Yun Xi returns to Beijing in the future and knows what she has done, she must be very surprised: This is definitely not the silly Baitian I know.
Well, in Yun Xi's eyes, she is just a silly and sweet girl right now.
