The rich and noble peasant daughter
Chapter 237 Dust Settled, Full Moon Ceremony
Chapter 237 Dust Settled, Full Moon Ceremony
After telling Yun Xi a joke about Xu's family and making Yun Xi happy, Li Qiu went out to help the Du Zhou family entertain guests.Today is the three baptisms for the little miss, and as Yun Xi is taking care of her health, it is natural that the elder Du Zhoushi will preside over it.
As the eldest daughter of Yun Xi and Yun Shen, Zhuzhu was destined to attract the attention of all the people when she was born, not to mention that Lu Yiran also said that Zhuzhu was her goddaughter.
Yun Shen, a person who is usually quite low-key, is even more high-profile, sending out invitations.I wish I could invite more people to show off how beautiful my daughter is.Zhu Zhu was just born like a little monkey, but after only three days, she looked much better than before, and her skin was much fairer and tenderer.
Only now did Yun Xi somewhat believe that what Wen Po said back then was not an exaggeration, her daughter would definitely look good when she grew up.
Although she also wanted to preside over her daughter's baptism in person, she didn't want to miss every experience in her life.When Du Zhou heard that she wanted to come out, he rarely got angry and reprimanded her.The central content is nothing more than how important confinement is. If you don't take this opportunity to take good care of your body, you will fall to the root of the disease if you don't keep it well.
Yun Xi felt dizzy after reading it, and quickly promised that she would never go out to have a shower, so Du Zhoushi let Yun Xi go.
Yin Dan knew that Yun Xi really wanted to see what was going on outside, so she found a maid with a sharp mouth to talk about what happened outside.
For example, how many guests have come, and what novelties have been given.For example, as a serious grandfather, Yun Mu gave a plate of beeswax Chaozhu, saying that it would be used as a toy for Zhuzhu when the time came.
The corners of Yun Xi's mouth twitched when she heard that, using beeswax as a toy is really extravagant.
For example, the little lady is not afraid of giving birth, the admission grandma wanted her to cry loudly, and patted her lightly, but Zhuzhu was not afraid, and opened her eyes to see people.Her eyes are black and bright, and the pure little eyes can melt people's hearts.
Speaking of which, Zhuzhu was able to open her eyes on the second day after she was born.But Yun Xi clearly saw in her heart that the baby's eyesight was not well developed at this time, so it might not be able to see the outside world.
But as long as it's about her daughter, no matter how big or small, Yun Xi is still very happy to hear it, and the corner of her mouth can't help showing a happy smile.
Seeing that her mood improved, Yin Dan gave the servant girl an appreciative look.This maid's name is Xingyue, and she is also one of the group that Shuangjiang and Liqiu trained very highly of.They have selected the twelve most important ones and given them names after the names of the months.
Although Xingyue is not stable enough, she is indeed eloquent.
She ran back and forth like this without feeling tired.
After a while, Xingyue ran in and said, "The servants from the palace have also come, and they have given you a lot of rewards. Your Majesty rewarded you with a whole set of silver ornaments, gold ornaments and jade stones, which are all exquisitely made."
"Several empresses in the palace have also rewarded things, such as Concubine De and Concubine Li..." Xingyue paused, and then said: "The empress Mei concubine also sent a lot of things over, and even passed several A lady."
Yun Xi sneered, "Could it be that she is apologizing for her sister?" She had heard that concubine Xu Manjuan had a good relationship with her younger sister Xu Manzhen, and that Xu Manzhen had even entered the palace more times than her mother.
Xu Manzhen plagiarized her things, and even wanted to let her die. If she did such a thing, that Concubine Mei would think that Yun Xi would not pursue it just because she gave more gifts, right?The two sisters really have the same thick skins.As for the so-called witchcraft, Yun Xi knew that it was designed by Xu Manfen.
Her eyes flashed with coldness, "We can't afford the gift from Concubine Mei."
Xingyue nodded in agreement, "My son also said the same thing, so he just asked someone to return Concubine Mei's gift."
"He also said that he didn't know if there would be unclean things in it. The young lady is still young, so she can't stand the trouble."
"Miss, you should really look at it. The big maid in front of Concubine Mei wanted to say something, and she was thrown out by the prince directly." A big maid in front of Concubine really took herself seriously, and she still Thinking of talking to them about Yunfu.
Pooh!This family is really shameless.
"Sister Liqiu even told her directly that she might as well leave these gifts to the Xu family, and then sell them to make up for the family."
Yun Xi couldn't help laughing, Li Qiu was deliberately satirizing the chaotic scene of the Xu family.
Xingyue continued: "Princess Roujia satirized Miss Xu Er directly at the banquet, saying that she is narrow-minded, and just because girl, you didn't connect her with Lord Wenhou, you blamed others."
Yun Xi heard Xingyue chattering over there, and finally said: "Later, let someone wash the door with the water boiled from wormwood, and go to get rid of bad luck."
Xingyue nodded.Yun Xi continued to turn the pages of the book slowly in the house.After the three baptisms were over, the nanny Lin came in holding Zhuzhu wrapped in a red swaddle.The nanny Lin is 25 years old. Although her appearance is ordinary, her whole body is full of tenderness.
The four nannies were all carefully selected by Yun Xi and Yun Shen, and they were innocent.The meals for the three meals were specially prepared by the imperial physician, so that Zhuzhu would not be implicated because they ate indiscriminately.The whole family of these nannies is raised in Zhuangzi, and Yunxi will give them eight days off every month, and the monthly money is also ten taels of silver.Yun Xi even said that if they take good care of them, Yun Xi will help send their children to the school in the future.
With generous money and various rewards, these nannies couldn't help but be indifferent.
However, Yun Xi decided to start feeding Zhuzhu herself in a few days, and the main job of these nannies was to take care of Zhuzhu.After all, breast milk is better for children, and since Yun Xi has the ability to improve her body, her breast milk is naturally better than that of a nanny.In the past few days, she has also started to eat some milky food.
Zhuzhu's eyes were tightly closed, she was sleeping soundly, and there was a faint fragrance of milk on her body.
Yun Xi took her daughter with gentle eyes.Zhuzhu is the first person in this world who is truly connected with her blood. Her appearance makes her heart fall to the ground at once, and it becomes the connection line between her and the world.
Just holding her, Yun Xi felt unprecedented satisfaction, the empty places in her heart were filled.
After the three rites, Yun Xi chose to confine herself in Xinuange.After all, the room in Xinuange is big enough, although she can't go outside to have a breeze, but at least she must have a space to move around, she doesn't want to stay in bed all day, it will definitely get moldy.
Yun Shen moved his office to a small study near Xinuange.
On weekdays, the husband and wife read books and play with the children together, and their lives are very warm.
Within a few days, Yun Xi heard that concubine Mei Xu Manjuan had been demoted to Chang Zai.You know, Xu Manjuan was always there before giving birth to twins, and now it can be said that she has returned to before liberation.
When Yun Xi heard the news, she happily drank a bowl of soup.
Li Qiu said: "Speaking of which, this is also Concubine Mei... Oh, no, I can't call her Concubine Mei now, it should be called Mei Changzai. It was a big shame. She took off her hairpin and pleaded guilty, saying that she accidentally offended the eldest son and you, girl. Who can't see that she is putting eye drops on our family, and she also pleaded for her sister Xu Manzhen, It is said that Xu Manzhen has been a kind and caring girl since she was a child, and she will never do such harmful things."
"In the end, His Majesty didn't give her any face at all, and directly said that the Xu family was not strict in raising daughters, which is why Xu Manzhen had such a vicious heart. Concubine Mei ignored the facts, turned the truth upside down, and was unbearable to be a concubine, so she was demoted to the permanent position."
When Mrs. Xu couldn't find evidence for a long time, Xu Manzhen was accused of witchcraft.Although no real harm was done to Yun Xi, Xu Manzhen was sentenced to three years in prison in the end.As for Xiaowen, he was not so lucky, so he asked to be killed directly.The old lady Wang spent three years in prison after beating a hundred boards with a cane.
Yun Xi is not worried about Xiao Wen, Li Qiu will definitely arrange Xiao Wen properly so that she can come out safely.Mrs. Wang was out of luck. Although the hundred boards didn't kill her, it made her fall down.At least one month of recuperation is required, and good medicine must be taken care of.Mrs. Wang secretly gave all the money to her own daughter in advance, and even brought the Wang family's property along with her.
Mrs. Wang's son and daughter-in-law knew that Mrs. Wang was responsible for all the misfortunes in their family, and they also knew their own backgrounds. They all hated Mrs. Wang, not to mention taking good care of Mrs. Wang.Mrs. Wang was seriously injured, and they never brought her a doctor to see her. The three meals on weekdays were leftovers, and they were just hanging on Mrs. Wang's life.Her daughter-in-law sat by the bed and cursed at her every day.
Yun Xi felt that this Mrs. Wang probably wouldn't survive three years of hard labor.Based on her Antarctic and crimes, if she is doing hard labor, it should be Zhimi.But although Mrs. Wang deserved what she deserved, her son and daughter-in-law were not good either.As the son of the outer family, Wang Yongbo could not get any share of the Wang family's property.And before Mrs. Wang thought he was her own son, she treated him very kindly.
She lightly instructed Li Qiu, "If Mrs. Wang dies, someone can go to the Yamen to sue Wang Yongbo." According to the tossing method of Wang Yongbo and his wife, it is estimated that Mrs. Wang will live less than a month.
Li Qiu nodded, "That's for sure." She hated Mrs. Wang, but she hated Mrs. Wang's son even more.
Then she went on to talk about things in the palace.Speaking of it, Li Qiu did have some skills, and really bought a few maids in the palace.Although none of these maids are needed by those masters, most of them are just rough envoys, but they are enough to inquire about news.
Thinking of that concubine Mei who fell into the clouds in less than half a year, Yun Xi couldn't help shaking her head. This Mei Changzai guessed that it was because she succeeded in giving birth to twins, she was complacent and took herself too seriously.Only then did he intercede for his sister, but it turned out to be good now, and he was demoted directly to Chang Zai.The people in the palace are all human beings, and when they see her lose power, they will definitely step on the high and flatter the low.
"However, if she is relegated to the status of a resident, I'm afraid she won't be able to raise her own children." The one who can raise a princess and prince must at least be a concubine.
Li Qiu nodded and said with a smile: "In the end, Concubine Shu is raising this pair of children."
The eldest prince Chu Long still sits on the bench in front of Chu Xiyuan because of Liu Weishuang's incident.The reason why Concubine Shu took over this pair of children should be for her own son.It was said that Chu Xiyuan was very fond of the twins, and would visit them every few days - Concubine Mei felt that she was favored because of this, so she had the courage to apply eye drops to Yun Shen.
When the Seventh Prince and the Fourth Princess arrived in Concubine Shu's Palace, Chu Xiyuan would also visit Concubine Shu's Palace from time to time, which was undoubtedly a good thing for Concubine Shu.
Li Qiu frowned and said: "Yes, Your Majesty also saw that the eldest prince gets along very well with his younger siblings, and praised him for being like a brother."
Yun Xi said calmly, "Concubine Shu has benefited from raising Mei Changzai's children. I think coming to Luo's family will help Xu's family get through this difficult time." Luo's family is Concubine Shu's natal family.
Li Qiu sneered and said, "Even if the Luo family helps to move around, Xu Manzhen won't be able to stand up. But the Luo family did lend 5000 taels of silver to the Xu family."
Yun Xi couldn't help laughing, "It seems that the seventh and fourth princes are worth 5000 taels."
It was said that it was a loan of 5000 taels, but no one knew that it was actually given to the Xu family for free.
Li Qiu was not very satisfied with this, and he didn't directly beat the Xu family to the ground because of his grudges.
Yun Xi said: "It doesn't matter, anyway, as long as the Xu family is provoked by me, I don't bother to talk to them."She has always been a person who does not offend me, and I do not offend others.
Li Qiu said: "However, Concubine Mei really did her best for her sister. Her parents have already regarded Xu Manzhen as an abandoned child, but Concubine Mei still wants to rescue her sister, and even entrusts her to Concubine Shu."
Yun Xi was surprised and said, "You are well informed."
Li Qiu's tone was a bit complacent, "It's just that I successfully developed a second-class maid of Concubine Shu into our eyeliner." This is something that makes Li Qiu proud, so she couldn't help but say a few more words, "The elder sister of the court lady is a bit flamboyant, The eldest prince fell in love with her. After Concubine Shu found out, she thought she had seduced the prince and expelled her from the palace. The maid was not perfect, and she offended the sinners in the palace. After returning, she wanted to throw herself into the river, but happened to be caught Miss Duo was rescued. The two sisters were very grateful to us, so the younger sister took the initiative to enter the palace and be our internal support."
The corners of Yun Xi's lips twitched, and she said meaningfully: "Since the Luo family wants to rescue Xu Manzhen, then we should also help them."
Such a good backer, if you miss this village, there will be no such shop.
Li Qiu nodded, "Don't worry girl, we have already arranged it."
……
Xu Manzhen's eyes were dull and her face was haggard. Her clothes and skirts had long been stained with dust on the ground.
It was a bit cold in the cell at night, so she couldn't help wrapping her arms around herself to keep warm.Now Xu Manzhen's face lacks the vigor and vigor of the beginning, her eyes are cloudy and filled with deep hatred.
She hated Yunfu for letting her down to this point, and hated Mrs. Wang for confessing her.
He still hated his parents, they ignored her and never thought of releasing her from this prison.If they could spend some money to deal with these jailers, how could she be in such a mess.Xu Manzhen didn't know that her parents were very angry because of her private borrowing money to open the salon, and they didn't want to spend money on it for her.
Xu Manzhen hated everyone who could be hated.Only she didn't think about her own fault.
"I won't just admit defeat like this, these are just a little test given to me by God."
"That's right, didn't it say in the storybook? As long as the protagonist passes these tests, he can make a fortune. Anyone who opposes the protagonist will not end well." Her tone was firm, as if she was convincing herself .
That's right, God gave her such an opportunity, not for the purpose of turning her into mud and dust.
The light in her eyes became brighter and brighter, and finally she believed her own words.
A gust of wind blew in through the window, and Xu Manzhen couldn't help but sneezed.
Xiaowen took off his shoes, tore off a lilac silver ornament from the embroidered shoes, and said to the jailer, "Brother, can you exchange this silver for a candle and a coat. My lady can't stand the cold."
Although this silver jewelry doesn't weigh much, it can be exchanged for hundreds of cash if you take it to a pawn shop.
The jailer looked at her suspiciously and said, "You are loyal to your lady." Then he took the money, and after a while brought a candle and an old cotton coat.
The old padded clothes exuded a musty smell. If it was before, Xu Manzhen would not wear this clothes even if she was killed.But she is so cold now, how can she be picky about these things, and she just pulled the old cotton coat directly on her body, which made her feel better.
Then she placed the candle within a foot of herself, and the dancing candle made her feel unconsciously calmed down.
The jailer looked at her contemptuously. These things were bought by her maid, but she never thought of sharing them with her.But he knew that this maid went to prison to take the blame for Xu Manzhen, but Xu Manzhen never thought about her.
He couldn't help but shook his head, what a silly girl, then yawned and left.
Not long after, a few people who were acquainted with the jailer came in with food and wine, and they had a feast of wine and meat with the guards in the cell.
Looking at this scene, Xiaowen felt a slight movement in his heart.She knew that the opportunity she had been waiting for had come.
After estimating that the guards outside the door were already drunk, she said to Xu Manzhen in a trembling voice, "Miss, I, I'm a little cold."
Xu Manzhen subconsciously wrapped the padded jacket tightly around her body. She was unwilling to give up the padded jacket. She looked at the half-burned candle and said, "Otherwise, this candle will keep you warm."
Xiaowen pretended to be happy on purpose, "Thank you miss."
Xu Manzhen felt very sorry, in her two lifetimes, she had only met such a loyal servant girl as Xiao Wen, and she felt a little regretful when she thought that this servant girl would be beheaded after autumn.She thought about it again, there is no Xiaowen, but also Xiaoyu.
At that time, if you search a lot, you can always find a loyal maid.Big deal, after she recovers, she can burn more paper money for Xiaowen.
The rare guilt that Xu Manzhen had originally felt was suppressed by her again.
At this moment, several men in black came in from the door, holding a bunch of keys in their hands, and said, "Quickly open the door, and you'll be fine after saving her."
Xu Manzhen didn't know the identities of these people, and felt that they were not good people at first glance, so she backed away subconsciously.
"What are you doing?" She couldn't help screaming.
The men in black were the ones that the Luo family had found. When they heard Xu Manzhen yelling, they couldn't help cursing, and immediately said, "Your family asked us to rescue you."
After all, he used the key to directly open the door of the cell.
Just as the lock was opened, several sword lights flashed, and a sword was added to the chest of the man in black, and blood even gushed out, splashing on Xu Manzhen's body.Xu Manzhen couldn't help but let out a scream, then felt a pain in her neck and passed out.
……
When she woke up again, there was a pink curtain embroidered with pomegranate flowers above her head, and the soft touch under her body made her shed tears.She... Did she leave the cell?Great, she was finally free.
Xu Manzhen sat up straight subconsciously, and found that she had changed into silk clothes. She touched the clothes fondly, feeling the soft touch, and a big smile appeared on her face.She just knew that God told her to do it all over again, and wouldn't treat her too harshly!
At this moment, the door was opened, and a girl in purple came in, and said in unproficient Da Chu dialect: "Is it Miss Xu Er? I am Bai He, the princess's maid, and it was the princess who ordered us to rescue you. "
Xu Manzhen's eyes lit up, and she said, "It's Princess Lingxi, I guess I saw her right." Since she was rescued by Princess Lingxi, she doesn't need to worry.
Just recalling the scene before coma, Xu Manzhen asked in confusion: "Then why did you kill people?"
Bai He said in a strange tone: "Those men in black are from Yunfu. They actually wanted to kill you. We followed them all the time, worried that they would attack you, so we acted ahead of time."
Xu Manzhen gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, fortunately, I thought they were really going to save me." Fortunately, Princess Lingxi's people came quickly, otherwise her life would have been lost.
"Where's my maid, Xiaowen? Is she there?" If Xiaowen was also rescued, she would have another loyal servant.
Bai He shook his head, "She was frightened at the time, the candle fell to the ground, and the whole cell was on fire, which made it almost impossible for us to rescue you."
After hearing this, Xu Manzhen also felt strange about Xiaowen.
"When can I go home?"
Bai He said: "You can't go back now. The people in the Yunfu are staring at the Xu family. If you go home, I'm afraid you will be thrown into the sky prison this time. We will not be able to rescue you successfully at that time. The sky prison It’s not easy to rob a prison.”
Xu Manzhen couldn't help shivering when she recalled her prison life during this period.That being the case, it's better for her not to go back, it's better to eat and drink spicy food with Yuan Lingxi here.
It's just that she was still full of resentment in her heart, why did she have to hide her name while those who harmed her were unharmed.And although she doesn't have to stay in a cell anymore, she can't appear in front of others openly.
Du Yunxi!She must get this debt back.
Bai He continued: "We know that you are from the future."
Xu Manzhen, who was originally resentful, froze immediately after hearing this.This was her biggest secret, but this maid said it lightly, as if she was thrown in front of others with no clothes on.
"Actually, you can come back because the princess invited the high priest to do it."
"You and the princess are both poor people who were harmed by Du Yunxi. The interests of the two of you are the same. That's why she brought you back from the future. Only in this way can we, who have the prophetic ability, successfully let Du Yunxi Ruined."
"The princess can no longer bear Du Yunxi's continued arrogance."
"If it weren't for Du Yunxi, you would still be the second young lady of the Xu family. With your help, maybe your nephew will be able to ascend the throne in the future."
Bai He drew big cakes for Xu Manzhen, which fascinated her leisurely.
"It's a pity that Du Yunxi is too cautious on weekdays. We can't catch her at all. She is still a princess who is loved by the people of Dachu. Your sister was even demoted to Chang Zai for pleading for you. Your Nephews and nieces were also raised by other concubines."
Xu Manzhen's eyes widened when he heard this, and his teeth kept chattering with anger.
She looked at Bai He, gritted her teeth and said, "I know the way to ruin Du Yunxi's reputation. There will be a snowstorm in Dachu this year. The snow fell from October to December, which caused a snowstorm. I originally planned to have a snowstorm in October. A month ago, rumors were spread that Du Yunxi was the disaster star, and if she is not eliminated, God will punish her this year. In this way, after the snow disaster, the cause can be blamed on Du Yunxi."
"The snow will fall until December 24th. Before that, I can pray with great fanfare. After I pray, the snow will stop. My reputation will reach its peak."
Originally, Xu Manzhen had planned well, and she planned to organize people in the capital to donate money and gain fame. This time, she will definitely get ahead of Du Yunxi.
As a result, all of her perfect plans fell through because of her imprisonment.
Thinking of this, the roiling hatred in her heart overwhelmed her whole body, and her expression twisted into a hideous appearance.
Bai Xue murmured: "Is it a snow disaster..."
Xu Manzhen nodded vigorously, "Yes, after the snow disaster, there will be floods next spring."
"Even if people still don't believe that she is a disaster after the snow disaster, they can continue to put pots on her head when the flood hits."
These two disasters are also the biggest natural disasters in Dachu in the past century.
When Xu Manzhen thought of what would happen to Du Yunxi at that time, a confused smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
Bai He looked at her like this, a trace of disdain and disgust flashed in his eyes, but there was still a gentle smile on his face, and he asked Xu Manzhen to continue talking.
Xu Manzhen unconsciously talked more and more, and her throat was dry after talking.
Bai He handed over a glass of water, "Drink some water, Miss Xu, you haven't rested for several days, but you are exhausted."
Xu Manzhen took her hand and finished drinking a glass of water, feeling her eyelids getting heavier and heavier. She pulled Bai He and said, "It's agreed, you have to help me become a goddess... If I become a goddess, the princess and I will also able to watch and help each other.”
Halfway through her speech, she passed out.
Bai He helped her onto the bed, closed the door, and locked it directly from the outside, then poohed at the room, "You're still a goddess! What a beautiful idea!"
……
Yun Xi held a statement in her hand, with a solemn expression, "Is that all Xu Manzhen said?"
Bai He, actually one of Shuang Jiang's subordinates, pretended to be Yuan Lingxi's maid, successfully dispelled Xu Manzhen's psychological defenses, and got some words to the same extent.
Bai He nodded, and now she no longer spoke with the weird tone before, "That's all I said. She seems to have been reborn five years later. Before rebirth, she seemed to be tortured unspeakably by her husband."
Bai He said: "Speaking of which, her husband in the previous life is now her cousin's fiancé, Meng Xiucai."
A good girl was forced to marry a poor scholar.Judging from the resentment shown by Xu Manzhen, this Meng Xiucai is not the so-called beloved man.Xu Manzhen's cousin, Yun Xi, had also heard of it. According to Yan Ling, although she was a bit harsh, she was not a bad girl.
Yun Xi said: "Let the Wang family know this news, it would be good if you can give that Miss Wang a hand."
Even if Miss Wang was wrong, she shouldn't be allowed to follow the path of Xu Manzhen's previous life.
Bai He nodded, then smiled, "When the Wang family finds out that their eldest daughter was killed by Xu Manzhen, there will be another good show."
Yun Xi said: "I heard that when Xiaowen left the cell yesterday, the back of her hand was accidentally burned by fire. You can go to the warehouse and get two bottles of Qianhe Ointment for her. Girls' hands must not leave scars."
Bai He laughed and said, "Half a bottle is enough for the wound." The girl in her family is considerate.Unlike Xu Manzhen, Xiaowen played the image of a loyal servant vividly and exquisitely, but Xu Manzhen didn't feel any guilt or anxiety towards her, and only thought of herself.
In fact, both the Xu family and Concubine Shu's natal Luo family are now in a big trouble.
Those men in black last night were indeed sent by the Luo family to rescue Xu Manzhen, but they were all killed by Yun Xi's men.After killing him, he did not forget to leave the Luo family's jade plaque at the scene as evidence.
The Luo family also invited the friends of the prison guards in advance, and asked them to bring wine and meat to drunk the guards guarding the cell.Originally, these little gangsters were going to leave the capital today with the money given by the Luo family, but they were still caught in the face - of course, Wanshiwu was responsible for this.
These little bastards couldn't stand the pain, and quickly confessed to the Luo family.
The entire capital city was in an uproar because of this "prison robbery" incident.Prison robbery is not a small crime, it is a contempt for the laws of the Great Chu, and it can even be said to be a form of treason.Dare to rob a prison today, but dare to rebel tomorrow if it is not guaranteed.
The Luo family also couldn't say anything, they sent people to rescue Xu Manzhen, but the people they sent out disappeared, and there was no one from Xu Manzhen.Although they refused to admit it to death, but the evidence was there, and everyone in the capital believed that it was the Luo family who did it.
Whether it is the Luo family or the Xu family, they are all under guard.
Bai He couldn't help being happy when she thought of the embarrassment of the two families. At the end, she asked, "Girl, what should I do next?"
"The elder son has a medicine on hand, which can make people lose their minds after taking it. It is very likely that more words can be obtained from her. However, this medicine is very harmful to the human brain, and it is possible to become a lunatic. Very big."
Yun Xi squeezed the paper in her hand, her expression turned indifferent, "Give it to her, and dig out as much information as you can. When you're done, give her a white silk."
Are you cruel?She doesn't think so.
There is no need for Yun Xi to waste any extra affection for a person who harbors malice towards her.For killing Xu Manzhen, Yun Xi didn't feel any guilt.Although Xu Manzhen was allowed to live, the torture she suffered would be deeper, and it is more likely that her life would be worse than death.But as long as people are alive, maybe there will be a day when they will be rescued.
Yun Xi didn't want to be like the protagonist in the story, saving the life of the villain for some random reason, only to be reversed instead.
Bai He nodded, turned around and went to arrange the matter.
After Xu Manzhen was tortured for ten years, she was killed by a white silk.Even her ambitious and passionate blood turned into a mirror.Before she died, her eyes were wide open, as if full of unwillingness.
At the same time, her confessions these days also fell into Yun Xi's hands.Yun Xi didn't believe all of her words, but it was okay to use them as a reference.After all, those bits and pieces of news are not as important as this year's snowstorm and next year's flood.
Li Qiu ordered people to bury Xu Manzhen in the wilderness, and there was not even a monument on it - no one knew that under the loess, what was buried was Xu Manzhen, who the people in the capital couldn't find everywhere.
After half a month of wrangling, the Luo family pushed out a bastard of a side branch——Luo Cheng, and then placed all the charges on her.
According to the Luo family, Luo Cheng fell in love at first sight with Xu Manzhen who was dancing the sleeve dance at the Seventh Prince's full moon ceremony.Even if Xu Manzhen was in prison, he firmly believed that she had been framed, and he remained infatuated with her, and even bribed someone to plan this prison robbery and rescue Xu Manzhen.
Everyone knew that Luo Cheng was a scapegoat, but Luo Cheng himself was willing to plead guilty, and no one else could say anything.Luo Cheng was sentenced to be beheaded for robbing the prison.
The Patriarch of the Luo family, Concubine Shu's elder brother was directly cut into a blank slate, and Concubine Shu was banned for a month for a crime of disrespect in front of the palace, her green head card was removed for a year, and she was even demoted to concubine.It took Concubine Shu an unknown number of years to be named Concubine Shu because of her family background and having the eldest prince.Now that she has become a Shu concubine, she doesn't know if there will be a day when she will return to the concubine position.
Yun Xi guessed that Concubine Shu might regret that she had formed an alliance with the Xu family back then.
The Luo family is in such a miserable situation, and the Xu family is not much better.Mei Changzai in the palace was directly demoted to promise. Xu Manzhen's father, Xu Xuechang, was also removed from the black hat because of lax teaching of daughters, and he was never hired.
The position of Doctor Guanglu, Xu Xuechang's younger brother, was also not kept, that is to say, the entire Xu family was reduced to nothing, which can be described as miserable.If it weren't for worrying about the seven princes and the fourth princess who hadn't grown up, Xu Xuechang might have divorced Mrs. Xu.
It's also fortunate that the Luo family didn't come to the Xu family to bring the 5000 taels of silver, otherwise the Xu family would have suffered even more.Yun Xi had no doubt that even if Xu Manzhen was still alive, if she returned to the Xu family, she would be torn apart by the angry Xu family.
……
The matter of Xu Manzhen has been completely settled by now.
Yun Xi didn't forget that there was a Yuan Lingxi behind her back.That Zhang Ming is also a careful person, he changed countless routes along the way, if it wasn't for the hidden door's skill, Zhang Ming would have been thrown away by Zhang Ming long ago.
Yun Xi believed that if she continued to chase, she would definitely be able to capture Yuan Lingxi.
However, Yuan Lingxi, Xu Manzhen and the others became trivial matters before her precious daughter's full moon ceremony.
In fact, Yun Xi's body had almost recovered a long time ago. After all, she was there. She wanted to end her confinement early, but the two nuns and Du Zhou's forcefully suppressed her.He kept emphasizing the importance of confinement to women with her.
Yun Xi had no choice but to sit obediently for 30 days.During these 30 days, she had no choice but to take a bath, at most she could only wipe her body with a hot towel.You can't wash your hair either. Yun Xi feels that if she continues to sit, she will probably go crazy.
So after the 30 days were over, Yun Xi spent half a day taking a shower and washing her hair. After feeling refreshed, she began to prepare for Zhuzhu's full moon ceremony.
Washing three, full moon, one year old... are the three important periods for babies.Yun Xi had already missed Zhuzhu's third wash, so the full moon naturally couldn't miss it.She posted widely and invited many relatives and friends over, and fifty tables were set up for the banquet.
Yun Xi deliberately made a face for Zhuzhu, so that everyone in the capital would know that even if Zhuzhu was a girl, she would still be her and Yun Shen's darling, no worse than a boy.
However, she still chooses plain ones in her clothes.Yun Xi didn't forget that she still had two or three months before she could be considered a filial piety.For this reason, she did not invite Yurong and Yufan, but they had already visited Zhuzhu and left gifts.
When she was busy, Tangerine came over with a big smile on her face.
Yun Xi looked at the orange and smiled, "Why are you here? Are you here in place of your young lady?" Dai Yanling was pregnant and in labor, Yun Xi didn't dare to let her come.
Juzi's voice couldn't conceal her excitement, "I've seen Mrs. My lady gave birth to a young master today, who weighs just six catties."
Yun Xi was startled, Yan Ling was born today?She couldn't help showing a sincere smile, "This is really great."
(End of this chapter)
After telling Yun Xi a joke about Xu's family and making Yun Xi happy, Li Qiu went out to help the Du Zhou family entertain guests.Today is the three baptisms for the little miss, and as Yun Xi is taking care of her health, it is natural that the elder Du Zhoushi will preside over it.
As the eldest daughter of Yun Xi and Yun Shen, Zhuzhu was destined to attract the attention of all the people when she was born, not to mention that Lu Yiran also said that Zhuzhu was her goddaughter.
Yun Shen, a person who is usually quite low-key, is even more high-profile, sending out invitations.I wish I could invite more people to show off how beautiful my daughter is.Zhu Zhu was just born like a little monkey, but after only three days, she looked much better than before, and her skin was much fairer and tenderer.
Only now did Yun Xi somewhat believe that what Wen Po said back then was not an exaggeration, her daughter would definitely look good when she grew up.
Although she also wanted to preside over her daughter's baptism in person, she didn't want to miss every experience in her life.When Du Zhou heard that she wanted to come out, he rarely got angry and reprimanded her.The central content is nothing more than how important confinement is. If you don't take this opportunity to take good care of your body, you will fall to the root of the disease if you don't keep it well.
Yun Xi felt dizzy after reading it, and quickly promised that she would never go out to have a shower, so Du Zhoushi let Yun Xi go.
Yin Dan knew that Yun Xi really wanted to see what was going on outside, so she found a maid with a sharp mouth to talk about what happened outside.
For example, how many guests have come, and what novelties have been given.For example, as a serious grandfather, Yun Mu gave a plate of beeswax Chaozhu, saying that it would be used as a toy for Zhuzhu when the time came.
The corners of Yun Xi's mouth twitched when she heard that, using beeswax as a toy is really extravagant.
For example, the little lady is not afraid of giving birth, the admission grandma wanted her to cry loudly, and patted her lightly, but Zhuzhu was not afraid, and opened her eyes to see people.Her eyes are black and bright, and the pure little eyes can melt people's hearts.
Speaking of which, Zhuzhu was able to open her eyes on the second day after she was born.But Yun Xi clearly saw in her heart that the baby's eyesight was not well developed at this time, so it might not be able to see the outside world.
But as long as it's about her daughter, no matter how big or small, Yun Xi is still very happy to hear it, and the corner of her mouth can't help showing a happy smile.
Seeing that her mood improved, Yin Dan gave the servant girl an appreciative look.This maid's name is Xingyue, and she is also one of the group that Shuangjiang and Liqiu trained very highly of.They have selected the twelve most important ones and given them names after the names of the months.
Although Xingyue is not stable enough, she is indeed eloquent.
She ran back and forth like this without feeling tired.
After a while, Xingyue ran in and said, "The servants from the palace have also come, and they have given you a lot of rewards. Your Majesty rewarded you with a whole set of silver ornaments, gold ornaments and jade stones, which are all exquisitely made."
"Several empresses in the palace have also rewarded things, such as Concubine De and Concubine Li..." Xingyue paused, and then said: "The empress Mei concubine also sent a lot of things over, and even passed several A lady."
Yun Xi sneered, "Could it be that she is apologizing for her sister?" She had heard that concubine Xu Manjuan had a good relationship with her younger sister Xu Manzhen, and that Xu Manzhen had even entered the palace more times than her mother.
Xu Manzhen plagiarized her things, and even wanted to let her die. If she did such a thing, that Concubine Mei would think that Yun Xi would not pursue it just because she gave more gifts, right?The two sisters really have the same thick skins.As for the so-called witchcraft, Yun Xi knew that it was designed by Xu Manfen.
Her eyes flashed with coldness, "We can't afford the gift from Concubine Mei."
Xingyue nodded in agreement, "My son also said the same thing, so he just asked someone to return Concubine Mei's gift."
"He also said that he didn't know if there would be unclean things in it. The young lady is still young, so she can't stand the trouble."
"Miss, you should really look at it. The big maid in front of Concubine Mei wanted to say something, and she was thrown out by the prince directly." A big maid in front of Concubine really took herself seriously, and she still Thinking of talking to them about Yunfu.
Pooh!This family is really shameless.
"Sister Liqiu even told her directly that she might as well leave these gifts to the Xu family, and then sell them to make up for the family."
Yun Xi couldn't help laughing, Li Qiu was deliberately satirizing the chaotic scene of the Xu family.
Xingyue continued: "Princess Roujia satirized Miss Xu Er directly at the banquet, saying that she is narrow-minded, and just because girl, you didn't connect her with Lord Wenhou, you blamed others."
Yun Xi heard Xingyue chattering over there, and finally said: "Later, let someone wash the door with the water boiled from wormwood, and go to get rid of bad luck."
Xingyue nodded.Yun Xi continued to turn the pages of the book slowly in the house.After the three baptisms were over, the nanny Lin came in holding Zhuzhu wrapped in a red swaddle.The nanny Lin is 25 years old. Although her appearance is ordinary, her whole body is full of tenderness.
The four nannies were all carefully selected by Yun Xi and Yun Shen, and they were innocent.The meals for the three meals were specially prepared by the imperial physician, so that Zhuzhu would not be implicated because they ate indiscriminately.The whole family of these nannies is raised in Zhuangzi, and Yunxi will give them eight days off every month, and the monthly money is also ten taels of silver.Yun Xi even said that if they take good care of them, Yun Xi will help send their children to the school in the future.
With generous money and various rewards, these nannies couldn't help but be indifferent.
However, Yun Xi decided to start feeding Zhuzhu herself in a few days, and the main job of these nannies was to take care of Zhuzhu.After all, breast milk is better for children, and since Yun Xi has the ability to improve her body, her breast milk is naturally better than that of a nanny.In the past few days, she has also started to eat some milky food.
Zhuzhu's eyes were tightly closed, she was sleeping soundly, and there was a faint fragrance of milk on her body.
Yun Xi took her daughter with gentle eyes.Zhuzhu is the first person in this world who is truly connected with her blood. Her appearance makes her heart fall to the ground at once, and it becomes the connection line between her and the world.
Just holding her, Yun Xi felt unprecedented satisfaction, the empty places in her heart were filled.
After the three rites, Yun Xi chose to confine herself in Xinuange.After all, the room in Xinuange is big enough, although she can't go outside to have a breeze, but at least she must have a space to move around, she doesn't want to stay in bed all day, it will definitely get moldy.
Yun Shen moved his office to a small study near Xinuange.
On weekdays, the husband and wife read books and play with the children together, and their lives are very warm.
Within a few days, Yun Xi heard that concubine Mei Xu Manjuan had been demoted to Chang Zai.You know, Xu Manjuan was always there before giving birth to twins, and now it can be said that she has returned to before liberation.
When Yun Xi heard the news, she happily drank a bowl of soup.
Li Qiu said: "Speaking of which, this is also Concubine Mei... Oh, no, I can't call her Concubine Mei now, it should be called Mei Changzai. It was a big shame. She took off her hairpin and pleaded guilty, saying that she accidentally offended the eldest son and you, girl. Who can't see that she is putting eye drops on our family, and she also pleaded for her sister Xu Manzhen, It is said that Xu Manzhen has been a kind and caring girl since she was a child, and she will never do such harmful things."
"In the end, His Majesty didn't give her any face at all, and directly said that the Xu family was not strict in raising daughters, which is why Xu Manzhen had such a vicious heart. Concubine Mei ignored the facts, turned the truth upside down, and was unbearable to be a concubine, so she was demoted to the permanent position."
When Mrs. Xu couldn't find evidence for a long time, Xu Manzhen was accused of witchcraft.Although no real harm was done to Yun Xi, Xu Manzhen was sentenced to three years in prison in the end.As for Xiaowen, he was not so lucky, so he asked to be killed directly.The old lady Wang spent three years in prison after beating a hundred boards with a cane.
Yun Xi is not worried about Xiao Wen, Li Qiu will definitely arrange Xiao Wen properly so that she can come out safely.Mrs. Wang was out of luck. Although the hundred boards didn't kill her, it made her fall down.At least one month of recuperation is required, and good medicine must be taken care of.Mrs. Wang secretly gave all the money to her own daughter in advance, and even brought the Wang family's property along with her.
Mrs. Wang's son and daughter-in-law knew that Mrs. Wang was responsible for all the misfortunes in their family, and they also knew their own backgrounds. They all hated Mrs. Wang, not to mention taking good care of Mrs. Wang.Mrs. Wang was seriously injured, and they never brought her a doctor to see her. The three meals on weekdays were leftovers, and they were just hanging on Mrs. Wang's life.Her daughter-in-law sat by the bed and cursed at her every day.
Yun Xi felt that this Mrs. Wang probably wouldn't survive three years of hard labor.Based on her Antarctic and crimes, if she is doing hard labor, it should be Zhimi.But although Mrs. Wang deserved what she deserved, her son and daughter-in-law were not good either.As the son of the outer family, Wang Yongbo could not get any share of the Wang family's property.And before Mrs. Wang thought he was her own son, she treated him very kindly.
She lightly instructed Li Qiu, "If Mrs. Wang dies, someone can go to the Yamen to sue Wang Yongbo." According to the tossing method of Wang Yongbo and his wife, it is estimated that Mrs. Wang will live less than a month.
Li Qiu nodded, "That's for sure." She hated Mrs. Wang, but she hated Mrs. Wang's son even more.
Then she went on to talk about things in the palace.Speaking of it, Li Qiu did have some skills, and really bought a few maids in the palace.Although none of these maids are needed by those masters, most of them are just rough envoys, but they are enough to inquire about news.
Thinking of that concubine Mei who fell into the clouds in less than half a year, Yun Xi couldn't help shaking her head. This Mei Changzai guessed that it was because she succeeded in giving birth to twins, she was complacent and took herself too seriously.Only then did he intercede for his sister, but it turned out to be good now, and he was demoted directly to Chang Zai.The people in the palace are all human beings, and when they see her lose power, they will definitely step on the high and flatter the low.
"However, if she is relegated to the status of a resident, I'm afraid she won't be able to raise her own children." The one who can raise a princess and prince must at least be a concubine.
Li Qiu nodded and said with a smile: "In the end, Concubine Shu is raising this pair of children."
The eldest prince Chu Long still sits on the bench in front of Chu Xiyuan because of Liu Weishuang's incident.The reason why Concubine Shu took over this pair of children should be for her own son.It was said that Chu Xiyuan was very fond of the twins, and would visit them every few days - Concubine Mei felt that she was favored because of this, so she had the courage to apply eye drops to Yun Shen.
When the Seventh Prince and the Fourth Princess arrived in Concubine Shu's Palace, Chu Xiyuan would also visit Concubine Shu's Palace from time to time, which was undoubtedly a good thing for Concubine Shu.
Li Qiu frowned and said: "Yes, Your Majesty also saw that the eldest prince gets along very well with his younger siblings, and praised him for being like a brother."
Yun Xi said calmly, "Concubine Shu has benefited from raising Mei Changzai's children. I think coming to Luo's family will help Xu's family get through this difficult time." Luo's family is Concubine Shu's natal family.
Li Qiu sneered and said, "Even if the Luo family helps to move around, Xu Manzhen won't be able to stand up. But the Luo family did lend 5000 taels of silver to the Xu family."
Yun Xi couldn't help laughing, "It seems that the seventh and fourth princes are worth 5000 taels."
It was said that it was a loan of 5000 taels, but no one knew that it was actually given to the Xu family for free.
Li Qiu was not very satisfied with this, and he didn't directly beat the Xu family to the ground because of his grudges.
Yun Xi said: "It doesn't matter, anyway, as long as the Xu family is provoked by me, I don't bother to talk to them."She has always been a person who does not offend me, and I do not offend others.
Li Qiu said: "However, Concubine Mei really did her best for her sister. Her parents have already regarded Xu Manzhen as an abandoned child, but Concubine Mei still wants to rescue her sister, and even entrusts her to Concubine Shu."
Yun Xi was surprised and said, "You are well informed."
Li Qiu's tone was a bit complacent, "It's just that I successfully developed a second-class maid of Concubine Shu into our eyeliner." This is something that makes Li Qiu proud, so she couldn't help but say a few more words, "The elder sister of the court lady is a bit flamboyant, The eldest prince fell in love with her. After Concubine Shu found out, she thought she had seduced the prince and expelled her from the palace. The maid was not perfect, and she offended the sinners in the palace. After returning, she wanted to throw herself into the river, but happened to be caught Miss Duo was rescued. The two sisters were very grateful to us, so the younger sister took the initiative to enter the palace and be our internal support."
The corners of Yun Xi's lips twitched, and she said meaningfully: "Since the Luo family wants to rescue Xu Manzhen, then we should also help them."
Such a good backer, if you miss this village, there will be no such shop.
Li Qiu nodded, "Don't worry girl, we have already arranged it."
……
Xu Manzhen's eyes were dull and her face was haggard. Her clothes and skirts had long been stained with dust on the ground.
It was a bit cold in the cell at night, so she couldn't help wrapping her arms around herself to keep warm.Now Xu Manzhen's face lacks the vigor and vigor of the beginning, her eyes are cloudy and filled with deep hatred.
She hated Yunfu for letting her down to this point, and hated Mrs. Wang for confessing her.
He still hated his parents, they ignored her and never thought of releasing her from this prison.If they could spend some money to deal with these jailers, how could she be in such a mess.Xu Manzhen didn't know that her parents were very angry because of her private borrowing money to open the salon, and they didn't want to spend money on it for her.
Xu Manzhen hated everyone who could be hated.Only she didn't think about her own fault.
"I won't just admit defeat like this, these are just a little test given to me by God."
"That's right, didn't it say in the storybook? As long as the protagonist passes these tests, he can make a fortune. Anyone who opposes the protagonist will not end well." Her tone was firm, as if she was convincing herself .
That's right, God gave her such an opportunity, not for the purpose of turning her into mud and dust.
The light in her eyes became brighter and brighter, and finally she believed her own words.
A gust of wind blew in through the window, and Xu Manzhen couldn't help but sneezed.
Xiaowen took off his shoes, tore off a lilac silver ornament from the embroidered shoes, and said to the jailer, "Brother, can you exchange this silver for a candle and a coat. My lady can't stand the cold."
Although this silver jewelry doesn't weigh much, it can be exchanged for hundreds of cash if you take it to a pawn shop.
The jailer looked at her suspiciously and said, "You are loyal to your lady." Then he took the money, and after a while brought a candle and an old cotton coat.
The old padded clothes exuded a musty smell. If it was before, Xu Manzhen would not wear this clothes even if she was killed.But she is so cold now, how can she be picky about these things, and she just pulled the old cotton coat directly on her body, which made her feel better.
Then she placed the candle within a foot of herself, and the dancing candle made her feel unconsciously calmed down.
The jailer looked at her contemptuously. These things were bought by her maid, but she never thought of sharing them with her.But he knew that this maid went to prison to take the blame for Xu Manzhen, but Xu Manzhen never thought about her.
He couldn't help but shook his head, what a silly girl, then yawned and left.
Not long after, a few people who were acquainted with the jailer came in with food and wine, and they had a feast of wine and meat with the guards in the cell.
Looking at this scene, Xiaowen felt a slight movement in his heart.She knew that the opportunity she had been waiting for had come.
After estimating that the guards outside the door were already drunk, she said to Xu Manzhen in a trembling voice, "Miss, I, I'm a little cold."
Xu Manzhen subconsciously wrapped the padded jacket tightly around her body. She was unwilling to give up the padded jacket. She looked at the half-burned candle and said, "Otherwise, this candle will keep you warm."
Xiaowen pretended to be happy on purpose, "Thank you miss."
Xu Manzhen felt very sorry, in her two lifetimes, she had only met such a loyal servant girl as Xiao Wen, and she felt a little regretful when she thought that this servant girl would be beheaded after autumn.She thought about it again, there is no Xiaowen, but also Xiaoyu.
At that time, if you search a lot, you can always find a loyal maid.Big deal, after she recovers, she can burn more paper money for Xiaowen.
The rare guilt that Xu Manzhen had originally felt was suppressed by her again.
At this moment, several men in black came in from the door, holding a bunch of keys in their hands, and said, "Quickly open the door, and you'll be fine after saving her."
Xu Manzhen didn't know the identities of these people, and felt that they were not good people at first glance, so she backed away subconsciously.
"What are you doing?" She couldn't help screaming.
The men in black were the ones that the Luo family had found. When they heard Xu Manzhen yelling, they couldn't help cursing, and immediately said, "Your family asked us to rescue you."
After all, he used the key to directly open the door of the cell.
Just as the lock was opened, several sword lights flashed, and a sword was added to the chest of the man in black, and blood even gushed out, splashing on Xu Manzhen's body.Xu Manzhen couldn't help but let out a scream, then felt a pain in her neck and passed out.
……
When she woke up again, there was a pink curtain embroidered with pomegranate flowers above her head, and the soft touch under her body made her shed tears.She... Did she leave the cell?Great, she was finally free.
Xu Manzhen sat up straight subconsciously, and found that she had changed into silk clothes. She touched the clothes fondly, feeling the soft touch, and a big smile appeared on her face.She just knew that God told her to do it all over again, and wouldn't treat her too harshly!
At this moment, the door was opened, and a girl in purple came in, and said in unproficient Da Chu dialect: "Is it Miss Xu Er? I am Bai He, the princess's maid, and it was the princess who ordered us to rescue you. "
Xu Manzhen's eyes lit up, and she said, "It's Princess Lingxi, I guess I saw her right." Since she was rescued by Princess Lingxi, she doesn't need to worry.
Just recalling the scene before coma, Xu Manzhen asked in confusion: "Then why did you kill people?"
Bai He said in a strange tone: "Those men in black are from Yunfu. They actually wanted to kill you. We followed them all the time, worried that they would attack you, so we acted ahead of time."
Xu Manzhen gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, fortunately, I thought they were really going to save me." Fortunately, Princess Lingxi's people came quickly, otherwise her life would have been lost.
"Where's my maid, Xiaowen? Is she there?" If Xiaowen was also rescued, she would have another loyal servant.
Bai He shook his head, "She was frightened at the time, the candle fell to the ground, and the whole cell was on fire, which made it almost impossible for us to rescue you."
After hearing this, Xu Manzhen also felt strange about Xiaowen.
"When can I go home?"
Bai He said: "You can't go back now. The people in the Yunfu are staring at the Xu family. If you go home, I'm afraid you will be thrown into the sky prison this time. We will not be able to rescue you successfully at that time. The sky prison It’s not easy to rob a prison.”
Xu Manzhen couldn't help shivering when she recalled her prison life during this period.That being the case, it's better for her not to go back, it's better to eat and drink spicy food with Yuan Lingxi here.
It's just that she was still full of resentment in her heart, why did she have to hide her name while those who harmed her were unharmed.And although she doesn't have to stay in a cell anymore, she can't appear in front of others openly.
Du Yunxi!She must get this debt back.
Bai He continued: "We know that you are from the future."
Xu Manzhen, who was originally resentful, froze immediately after hearing this.This was her biggest secret, but this maid said it lightly, as if she was thrown in front of others with no clothes on.
"Actually, you can come back because the princess invited the high priest to do it."
"You and the princess are both poor people who were harmed by Du Yunxi. The interests of the two of you are the same. That's why she brought you back from the future. Only in this way can we, who have the prophetic ability, successfully let Du Yunxi Ruined."
"The princess can no longer bear Du Yunxi's continued arrogance."
"If it weren't for Du Yunxi, you would still be the second young lady of the Xu family. With your help, maybe your nephew will be able to ascend the throne in the future."
Bai He drew big cakes for Xu Manzhen, which fascinated her leisurely.
"It's a pity that Du Yunxi is too cautious on weekdays. We can't catch her at all. She is still a princess who is loved by the people of Dachu. Your sister was even demoted to Chang Zai for pleading for you. Your Nephews and nieces were also raised by other concubines."
Xu Manzhen's eyes widened when he heard this, and his teeth kept chattering with anger.
She looked at Bai He, gritted her teeth and said, "I know the way to ruin Du Yunxi's reputation. There will be a snowstorm in Dachu this year. The snow fell from October to December, which caused a snowstorm. I originally planned to have a snowstorm in October. A month ago, rumors were spread that Du Yunxi was the disaster star, and if she is not eliminated, God will punish her this year. In this way, after the snow disaster, the cause can be blamed on Du Yunxi."
"The snow will fall until December 24th. Before that, I can pray with great fanfare. After I pray, the snow will stop. My reputation will reach its peak."
Originally, Xu Manzhen had planned well, and she planned to organize people in the capital to donate money and gain fame. This time, she will definitely get ahead of Du Yunxi.
As a result, all of her perfect plans fell through because of her imprisonment.
Thinking of this, the roiling hatred in her heart overwhelmed her whole body, and her expression twisted into a hideous appearance.
Bai Xue murmured: "Is it a snow disaster..."
Xu Manzhen nodded vigorously, "Yes, after the snow disaster, there will be floods next spring."
"Even if people still don't believe that she is a disaster after the snow disaster, they can continue to put pots on her head when the flood hits."
These two disasters are also the biggest natural disasters in Dachu in the past century.
When Xu Manzhen thought of what would happen to Du Yunxi at that time, a confused smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
Bai He looked at her like this, a trace of disdain and disgust flashed in his eyes, but there was still a gentle smile on his face, and he asked Xu Manzhen to continue talking.
Xu Manzhen unconsciously talked more and more, and her throat was dry after talking.
Bai He handed over a glass of water, "Drink some water, Miss Xu, you haven't rested for several days, but you are exhausted."
Xu Manzhen took her hand and finished drinking a glass of water, feeling her eyelids getting heavier and heavier. She pulled Bai He and said, "It's agreed, you have to help me become a goddess... If I become a goddess, the princess and I will also able to watch and help each other.”
Halfway through her speech, she passed out.
Bai He helped her onto the bed, closed the door, and locked it directly from the outside, then poohed at the room, "You're still a goddess! What a beautiful idea!"
……
Yun Xi held a statement in her hand, with a solemn expression, "Is that all Xu Manzhen said?"
Bai He, actually one of Shuang Jiang's subordinates, pretended to be Yuan Lingxi's maid, successfully dispelled Xu Manzhen's psychological defenses, and got some words to the same extent.
Bai He nodded, and now she no longer spoke with the weird tone before, "That's all I said. She seems to have been reborn five years later. Before rebirth, she seemed to be tortured unspeakably by her husband."
Bai He said: "Speaking of which, her husband in the previous life is now her cousin's fiancé, Meng Xiucai."
A good girl was forced to marry a poor scholar.Judging from the resentment shown by Xu Manzhen, this Meng Xiucai is not the so-called beloved man.Xu Manzhen's cousin, Yun Xi, had also heard of it. According to Yan Ling, although she was a bit harsh, she was not a bad girl.
Yun Xi said: "Let the Wang family know this news, it would be good if you can give that Miss Wang a hand."
Even if Miss Wang was wrong, she shouldn't be allowed to follow the path of Xu Manzhen's previous life.
Bai He nodded, then smiled, "When the Wang family finds out that their eldest daughter was killed by Xu Manzhen, there will be another good show."
Yun Xi said: "I heard that when Xiaowen left the cell yesterday, the back of her hand was accidentally burned by fire. You can go to the warehouse and get two bottles of Qianhe Ointment for her. Girls' hands must not leave scars."
Bai He laughed and said, "Half a bottle is enough for the wound." The girl in her family is considerate.Unlike Xu Manzhen, Xiaowen played the image of a loyal servant vividly and exquisitely, but Xu Manzhen didn't feel any guilt or anxiety towards her, and only thought of herself.
In fact, both the Xu family and Concubine Shu's natal Luo family are now in a big trouble.
Those men in black last night were indeed sent by the Luo family to rescue Xu Manzhen, but they were all killed by Yun Xi's men.After killing him, he did not forget to leave the Luo family's jade plaque at the scene as evidence.
The Luo family also invited the friends of the prison guards in advance, and asked them to bring wine and meat to drunk the guards guarding the cell.Originally, these little gangsters were going to leave the capital today with the money given by the Luo family, but they were still caught in the face - of course, Wanshiwu was responsible for this.
These little bastards couldn't stand the pain, and quickly confessed to the Luo family.
The entire capital city was in an uproar because of this "prison robbery" incident.Prison robbery is not a small crime, it is a contempt for the laws of the Great Chu, and it can even be said to be a form of treason.Dare to rob a prison today, but dare to rebel tomorrow if it is not guaranteed.
The Luo family also couldn't say anything, they sent people to rescue Xu Manzhen, but the people they sent out disappeared, and there was no one from Xu Manzhen.Although they refused to admit it to death, but the evidence was there, and everyone in the capital believed that it was the Luo family who did it.
Whether it is the Luo family or the Xu family, they are all under guard.
Bai He couldn't help being happy when she thought of the embarrassment of the two families. At the end, she asked, "Girl, what should I do next?"
"The elder son has a medicine on hand, which can make people lose their minds after taking it. It is very likely that more words can be obtained from her. However, this medicine is very harmful to the human brain, and it is possible to become a lunatic. Very big."
Yun Xi squeezed the paper in her hand, her expression turned indifferent, "Give it to her, and dig out as much information as you can. When you're done, give her a white silk."
Are you cruel?She doesn't think so.
There is no need for Yun Xi to waste any extra affection for a person who harbors malice towards her.For killing Xu Manzhen, Yun Xi didn't feel any guilt.Although Xu Manzhen was allowed to live, the torture she suffered would be deeper, and it is more likely that her life would be worse than death.But as long as people are alive, maybe there will be a day when they will be rescued.
Yun Xi didn't want to be like the protagonist in the story, saving the life of the villain for some random reason, only to be reversed instead.
Bai He nodded, turned around and went to arrange the matter.
After Xu Manzhen was tortured for ten years, she was killed by a white silk.Even her ambitious and passionate blood turned into a mirror.Before she died, her eyes were wide open, as if full of unwillingness.
At the same time, her confessions these days also fell into Yun Xi's hands.Yun Xi didn't believe all of her words, but it was okay to use them as a reference.After all, those bits and pieces of news are not as important as this year's snowstorm and next year's flood.
Li Qiu ordered people to bury Xu Manzhen in the wilderness, and there was not even a monument on it - no one knew that under the loess, what was buried was Xu Manzhen, who the people in the capital couldn't find everywhere.
After half a month of wrangling, the Luo family pushed out a bastard of a side branch——Luo Cheng, and then placed all the charges on her.
According to the Luo family, Luo Cheng fell in love at first sight with Xu Manzhen who was dancing the sleeve dance at the Seventh Prince's full moon ceremony.Even if Xu Manzhen was in prison, he firmly believed that she had been framed, and he remained infatuated with her, and even bribed someone to plan this prison robbery and rescue Xu Manzhen.
Everyone knew that Luo Cheng was a scapegoat, but Luo Cheng himself was willing to plead guilty, and no one else could say anything.Luo Cheng was sentenced to be beheaded for robbing the prison.
The Patriarch of the Luo family, Concubine Shu's elder brother was directly cut into a blank slate, and Concubine Shu was banned for a month for a crime of disrespect in front of the palace, her green head card was removed for a year, and she was even demoted to concubine.It took Concubine Shu an unknown number of years to be named Concubine Shu because of her family background and having the eldest prince.Now that she has become a Shu concubine, she doesn't know if there will be a day when she will return to the concubine position.
Yun Xi guessed that Concubine Shu might regret that she had formed an alliance with the Xu family back then.
The Luo family is in such a miserable situation, and the Xu family is not much better.Mei Changzai in the palace was directly demoted to promise. Xu Manzhen's father, Xu Xuechang, was also removed from the black hat because of lax teaching of daughters, and he was never hired.
The position of Doctor Guanglu, Xu Xuechang's younger brother, was also not kept, that is to say, the entire Xu family was reduced to nothing, which can be described as miserable.If it weren't for worrying about the seven princes and the fourth princess who hadn't grown up, Xu Xuechang might have divorced Mrs. Xu.
It's also fortunate that the Luo family didn't come to the Xu family to bring the 5000 taels of silver, otherwise the Xu family would have suffered even more.Yun Xi had no doubt that even if Xu Manzhen was still alive, if she returned to the Xu family, she would be torn apart by the angry Xu family.
……
The matter of Xu Manzhen has been completely settled by now.
Yun Xi didn't forget that there was a Yuan Lingxi behind her back.That Zhang Ming is also a careful person, he changed countless routes along the way, if it wasn't for the hidden door's skill, Zhang Ming would have been thrown away by Zhang Ming long ago.
Yun Xi believed that if she continued to chase, she would definitely be able to capture Yuan Lingxi.
However, Yuan Lingxi, Xu Manzhen and the others became trivial matters before her precious daughter's full moon ceremony.
In fact, Yun Xi's body had almost recovered a long time ago. After all, she was there. She wanted to end her confinement early, but the two nuns and Du Zhou's forcefully suppressed her.He kept emphasizing the importance of confinement to women with her.
Yun Xi had no choice but to sit obediently for 30 days.During these 30 days, she had no choice but to take a bath, at most she could only wipe her body with a hot towel.You can't wash your hair either. Yun Xi feels that if she continues to sit, she will probably go crazy.
So after the 30 days were over, Yun Xi spent half a day taking a shower and washing her hair. After feeling refreshed, she began to prepare for Zhuzhu's full moon ceremony.
Washing three, full moon, one year old... are the three important periods for babies.Yun Xi had already missed Zhuzhu's third wash, so the full moon naturally couldn't miss it.She posted widely and invited many relatives and friends over, and fifty tables were set up for the banquet.
Yun Xi deliberately made a face for Zhuzhu, so that everyone in the capital would know that even if Zhuzhu was a girl, she would still be her and Yun Shen's darling, no worse than a boy.
However, she still chooses plain ones in her clothes.Yun Xi didn't forget that she still had two or three months before she could be considered a filial piety.For this reason, she did not invite Yurong and Yufan, but they had already visited Zhuzhu and left gifts.
When she was busy, Tangerine came over with a big smile on her face.
Yun Xi looked at the orange and smiled, "Why are you here? Are you here in place of your young lady?" Dai Yanling was pregnant and in labor, Yun Xi didn't dare to let her come.
Juzi's voice couldn't conceal her excitement, "I've seen Mrs. My lady gave birth to a young master today, who weighs just six catties."
Yun Xi was startled, Yan Ling was born today?She couldn't help showing a sincere smile, "This is really great."
