Jie a husband is too arrogant
Chapter 139
Chapter 139
As soon as Su Jiu entered the building, she was very eye-catching. Several familiar girls surrounded her, hugging her and walking towards her exclusive room.
After entering, serve tea, water and fruit snacks, being attentive and thoughtful.
Su Jiu leaned on the low couch, suddenly raised her eyebrows and looked out the door, and said softly, "You guys go down first!"
"Master Jiu has a guest coming?" A woman asked softly.
"Yes, I'll play with you guys later!" Su Jiu smiled lightly.
"The servants will come back later!"
Several women opened the door and filed out. Yulong who was standing at the door and the others all left before walking in slowly.
"It's really Miss Su?" Yulong looked at Su Jiu lightly, and smiled.
Su Jiu took an orange in her hand and peeled it slowly, raised her eyes and said with a smile, "The Crown Princess sent so many people to kill me, and they were determined to put me to death. The Crown Princess is naturally surprised that I am still alive." !"
"I knew you weren't dead!" Yulong smiled frankly, "Is Miss Su planning to take revenge on me when she comes back this time? Are you going to kill me?"
Su Jiu glanced at her disdainfully, "Is it necessary to plan to kill you?"
"Then what does Miss Su want to do? Take His Highness back? Now that His Highness has just sat on the crown prince and is not yet stable, if Miss Su really thinks about His Highness,"
Before Yulong could finish her sentence, she suddenly saw a black object flicked towards Su Jiu, she had no time to dodge it, the hidden weapon landed on her clothes, and with a whistling sound, it caught fire.
"Ah?" Yulong backed away in horror, slapping her chest vigorously with both hands.
Next to her, Qinglan frantically helped to slap her. Turning her head to see the water bottle on the table, she took it and splashed it on Yulong.
"Master hates other people talking about reasoning with you the most!" Su Jiu snorted coldly, pinching a black ball the size of a thumb in her hand, tilting her head and chuckling, Zhao Xiong sent someone to bring her this new gadget. good!
The fire on Yulong's body over there was finally extinguished. The clothes in front of her were scorched, smelling mushy, dripping wet, and it was a mess. Fortunately, the face and neck were not burned. Meat.
Yulong was still in shock, her face was pale and frightened, as if she didn't expect Su Jiu to attack someone suddenly.
Qing Lan felt sorry for her young lady, and cursed without any choice of words, "Bitch, you seduced His Highness, and dared to hurt our Crown Princess!"
Su Jiu glanced over with cold eyes, her eyes full of evil spirits, flicked her finger, and the black ball in her hand went straight towards Qinglan!
The hidden weapon shot straight at Qinglan's face, she tilted her head in a panic to avoid it, and only heard a sound of "chi", the hidden weapon brushed against her hair, and the hair burned quickly, crackling, accompanied by a strong scorching taste.
"Ah!" Qinglan shook her head in horror and backed away, tripped and rolled her body back and forth, her scalp was burning, her black hair seemed to be on fire, and she could not help but scream.
Yulong was also stunned at the side, looking at the rolling Qinglan at a loss, turned around and saw a little servant carrying hot water passing by, before she had time to think, she grabbed the basin and poured it on Qinglan.
After the fire was extinguished, a puff of black smoke came out, Qinglan's tender white face was flushed red from the heat, and she leaned against the wall dully with her hair that was burning like a chicken coop.
"Qinglan, how are you?" Yulong squatted down, caressing Qinglan's face, and turned her head to glare at Su Jiu, "How can Miss Su casually hurt someone?"
Su Jiu raised her eyebrows innocently, "The Crown Princess can kill people at will, but I'm just hurting people, and I'm far from the Crown Princess!"
"If you have hatred for me, why bother to hurt my maid?" Yulong said righteously.
"She scolded me, didn't the princess hear it?" Seeing the upright appearance of the woman, Su Jiu found it ridiculous.
Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief, her face and head felt a heart-wrenching pain, she couldn't help but said angrily, "Su Jiu, don't be too arrogant, I will definitely tell His Highness the Crown Prince that you have hurt our Crown Princess!"
"Okay, you go and tell him now!" Su Jiu nodded reassuringly, and smiled viciously, "See if he is willing to punish me for your princess?"
"You!" Yulong's face turned pale, her body trembled with anger, and she looked at Su Jiu with a dark look.
Su Jiu flicked her hands and got up, and said disgustedly, "This room is too smelly, I can't stay here any longer!"
After finishing speaking, he strode out, and when he passed the two of them, he looked back and smiled, "Next time we meet, the Crown Princess has some tricks to deal with the young master, so don't make any sense. There is only hatred between you and me, and there is nothing to say. Understand?"
Yulong raised her chin and looked at her coldly.
Su Jiu turned her head and went out.
"Too arrogant!" Qing Lan said angrily, "Crown Princess, we must tell His Highness!"
Yulong stood up with a flick of her sleeves, and said coldly, "So what, you didn't hear what she said just now, Your Highness will never do anything to her for me!"
"This breath, shall we just swallow it like this? Concubine, when have you ever suffered this kind of anger?" Qinglan cried with anger and hatred as her hair was burnt.
Yulong glanced at her, "Go home first!"
Su Jiu seems to be a little different from the woman she knew before!
Both of them were in a mess, Qinglan covered her head, feeling that others were watching them talking and laughing, she didn't dare to raise her head, she just walked out quickly while protecting Yulong.
It was already dark when we returned to the Prince's Mansion, and before we could change out our burnt clothes, we heard a message from someone, "Your Highness asked the Crown Princess and maid Qinglan to go to the main courtyard!"
"What's the matter?" Yulong asked.
"Your Highness didn't say anything!"
Qinglan said angrily, "It's just right, this servant is going to tell His Highness about the princess concubine being injured by Su Jiu!"
But Yulong frowned, feeling that it was not that simple for Xiao Lie to see her all of a sudden, at least, it was definitely not to protect her and punish Su Jiu.
Entering the main courtyard, Xiao Lie stood with his hands behind his back on the porch, dressed in black brocade clothes in the twilight, with a handsome face and a cold breath.
Qinglan hurried over and knelt on the ground first, choking with pain, "Your Highness, please make the decision for the princess! The princess was plotted against by Su Jiu today, her clothes were burned, and she was almost seriously injured!"
Yulong was still wearing burnt clothes, it was obvious at a glance, she didn't say much, blessed her body, and stood aside.
"What are you going to see Ah Jiu for?" Xiao Lie asked with a cold brow.
Qinglan was startled, and subconsciously looked at Yulong.
Yulong was in a mess, but she still stood upright, with a noble and inviolable dignity, and said in a leisurely manner, "I heard that Su Jiu has returned to Beijing, and I want to visit, and then I will tell you about the previous matter." She apologized and made amends! Probably Su Jiu was still angry with the concubine, and used the firearm before the concubine could speak."
"Yes!" Qinglan hastily echoed, "His Highness looked at the clothes of the Crown Princess and the hair of the servants. If we hadn't put out the fire in time, the two of us would have been burned to death by Su Jiu!"
Xiao Lie walked down the steps expressionlessly, glanced at Yulong, and landed on Qinglan, "What did you say about Ah Jiu?"
Qing Lan was startled, shook her head and said, "Your maidservant didn't say anything!"
"I heard from the servants of Qinglou that you scolded Ah Jiu, did you?" Xiao Lie's long eyes were deep and dark, with a murderous look between his brows.
Yulong raised her head suddenly.
really!He didn't protect her to vent his anger on her, but came to settle accounts with them for Su Jiu!
Qinglan plopped down on her knees, and said shyly, "This servant also sees that she is too arrogant, has no dignity in her eyes, and blatantly bullies the crown princess, so she speaks without choice."
"So you still scolded her?" Xiao Lie's face darkened, and he shouted, "Come here!"
"Your subordinate is here!" Two guards stepped forward to respond.
"Pull this maid down, slap her mouth thirty times, and throw her out of the house!" Xiao Lie ordered quietly.
Qinglan's face turned pale immediately, she hugged Yulong's leg, and said in panic, "Crown Princess, this servant is innocent, save this servant!"
The board used to punish the servant's mouth can break a mouth full of teeth in one stroke, and thirty strokes is almost fatal for a weak maid like Qinglan.
She knelt on the ground, crying miserably and begging for mercy, hugging Yulong's leg and refusing to let go.
"Crown princess, this servant has been with you since childhood, and I don't want to die. You beg for mercy on behalf of this servant! I dare not!"
Yulong's face turned pale, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Qinglan also cares for a while and then gets confused. She grew up with my concubine, can you please forgive her this time for the sake of my concubine!"
"No!" Xiao Lie's voice was indifferent, he turned and walked towards the inner hall, "Hurry up and drag it down!"
"Your Highness, Qinglan has already been injured by Su Jiu! Could it be that insulting Su Jiu will cost the life of a concubine and maid?" Yulong's voice trembled.
"Her ten lives are not as important as Ah Jiu's hair!" Xiao Lie's voice was indifferent.
Yulong's complexion was instantly pale and colorless.
Two guards took Qinglan's arm and walked out.
"Princess Concubine! Save this servant!" Qing Lan cried out in a shrill voice.
Yulong stood there with her body tense, looking at the indifferent back of the man in front of her,
The blood on his face faded, and he stood there for a long time, until the screams of his servant girl being beaten stopped, then turned around and walked towards his yard step by step.
That woman almost didn't need to say anything, she was already defeated!
She really didn't need to kill her, but she could make her suffer the pain of Ling Chi.
However, how could she, Xia Yulong, admit defeat until the end?
The next day, Su Jiu followed the eldest lady to meet the Empress Dowager Xiao.
After entering the Fushou Palace, Concubine Rong was also there, her eyes widened in shock when she heard the eldest lady introduce Su Jiu as her daughter.
"Su Jiu, why is it you?"
"Little girl, I have met the Empress Dowager, Concubine Rong!" Su Jiu greeted the two of them calmly.
Empress Dowager Xiao didn't realize it at first, she didn't understand why Concubine Rong was surprised, Su Jiu is the young wife of Ji Mansion and Bai Jingrou's daughter, isn't it normal?
Suddenly she remembered that Rong Guifei seemed to have told her that Mrs. Ji's young lady was a fake, a bandit pretending to be a bandit, so she also showed a shocked expression.
Since Su Jiu is a fake Miss Su family, why did Bai Jingrou bring her into the palace again?
Bai Jingrou knelt down in front of Empress Dowager Xiao, lowered her head and said, "Jingrou lied to Empress Dowager earlier, please forgive me!"
"What's going on here?" Empress Dowager Xiao went to help Bai Jingrou up.
Bai Jingrou didn't get up, lost her daughter when she was five years old, bumped all the way to Yuhu Mountain and became a bandit.Two years ago, the second wife and Su Wenqian colluded and planned to marry the second lady Su Yueqiu into the Ji Mansion, but they were robbed by bandits halfway, and then it happened that Su Jiu went to Beijing pretending to be Miss Su's family.
When Empress Dowager Xiao and Rong Gui heard the whole story, they were momentarily shocked and speechless.
Is there such a coincidence in the world?
Concubine Rong looked at Su Jiu with complicated eyes. It turned out that she was Bai Jingrou's daughter.
It turned out that the person Xiao Lie liked turned out to be Bai Jingrou's daughter.
At this moment, she suddenly believed in the reincarnation of heaven.
"Before Jingrou didn't know that Jiu'er was in Shengjing, and she concealed Su Wenqian's marriage to the concubine's daughter to enter the Ji Mansion, and asked the Queen Mother to punish her!" Bai Jingrou said in a low voice.
"You have suffered enough these years, how can the Ai family be willing to punish you!" The Empress Dowager Xiao helped the eldest lady up, held Su Jiu's hand, her eyes were loving, "No wonder the Ai family felt kind to this girl when she saw her. There is such a reason in the middle! Child, you have suffered too!"
Seeing that Empress Dowager Xiao really cared for her, Su Jiu couldn't help feeling soft, and said with a smile, "Don't blame me for lying to you, Empress Dowager!"
"You girl is also bold, a woman is actually a bandit!" Empress Dowager Xiao shook her head and laughed.
Su Jiu said frankly, "It's just that I'm hungry and can't help it!"
With this sentence, Empress Dowager Xiao almost shed tears, "It's all Aijia's fault, otherwise, such a thing would not have happened. Your mother and daughter have been separated for 12 years, and Aijia feels heartbroken just thinking about it!"
Bai Jingrou and Concubine Rong Gui supported Empress Dowager Xiao, and hurriedly comforted her softly.
Several people sat down and talked for a while, Su Jiu gradually became impatient and slipped out under the pretext of going to the toilet.
Su Jiu had been to the palace a few times, but she didn't have anything to go to. She just sat on the waterside pavilion on the side of the veranda to watch the scenery in the lake, and waited for the Da Furen and Empress Dowager Xiao to finish talking and leave the palace together.
Just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the sky is high and the air is refreshing,
The breeze was warm, and Su Jiu was holding a willow branch in her mouth. She was so bored by herself that she was about to fall asleep.
"Rou'er?"
Suddenly, there was a deep, bone-piercing, low-pitched cry from behind.
Su Jiu opened her eyes suddenly, and turned her head to see a man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe standing a few meters away, followed by two palace attendants.
She had never met Emperor Zhaoping, but she knew who it was by looking at his clothes, she jumped down from the wooden corridor, lowered her eyes to say hello, "Little girl has seen the emperor!"
Emperor Zhaoping saw the girl's face clearly, the tenderness in his eyes had disappeared, and he regained his graceful and dignified aura, and asked softly, "Who are you?"
Su Jiu's voice was clear, neither humble nor overbearing, "The little girl is Bai Jingrou's daughter, Su Yuejiu!"
"Are you Jingrou's daughter?" Emperor Zhaoping asked in astonishment, and laughed softly, "No wonder I just thought you had the charm of her youth."
Su Jiu raised her head, turned her eyes and smiled, "The emperor knows my mother?"
"Yes, we not only know each other, but we are also acquainted with each other!" Zhaoping Emperor Yan Yan said with a smile.
His face was slightly thinner than before, and he had been poisoned for many days. Even if he got rid of the poison later, it would still damage the foundation of his body.
"You came with your mother?" Emperor Zhaoping smiled gently, like an ordinary elder.
"Yes!"
"Then why are you here alone?"
"It's too stuffy in the room, so I came out for a walk!" Su Jiu's eyes were bright and she smiled frankly.
Emperor Zhaoping laughed happily, "Your temperament is somewhat similar to that of your mother when she was young!"
Su Jiu sat on the wooden porch and said with a smile, "The Emperor is not quite what I imagined."
"Oh? What do you think I look like?" Emperor Zhaoping sat across from Su Jiu amiably.
"I thought being an emperor would be surrounded by ministers every day, and even going to the toilet would be surrounded by hundreds of people!" Su Jiu used to follow Hu Dapao to the village at the foot of the mountain to listen to books. That's what the old man said, which made her once I also sympathize with Xiao Lie.
Emperor Zhaoping laughed "haha", "Then I am really miserable!"
"Those 100 people are forced to watch you go to the toilet every day. They are also very hard!" Su Jiu said seriously.
Maybe you have to pretend to be very fragrant and enjoy it.
"Haha!" Emperor Zhaoping leaned back and laughed, and the palace servant who was guarding in the distance looked over in horror.
When the eldest lady came out to look for Su Jiu, she saw Su Jiu sitting cross-legged on a wooden chair under the water pavilion in the pavilion, talking and laughing with Emperor Zhaoping, their spirits dancing, and they didn't even see her coming over. .
"Jiu'er!" The eldest lady yelled and walked over.
"Mother!" Su Jiu looked back and smiled.
"Jingrou, your daughter is so interesting. I want to have another son. I will definitely let her marry into the palace to entertain me every day!" Emperor Zhaoping's face was flushed, he seemed to be in a good mood, and his complexion was much better than before.
Su Jiu lowered her eyes and smiled, "The status of a civilian girl is low, how can she be worthy of a prince?"
Emperor Zhaoping laughed, pointed at Su Jiu and said to the eldest lady, "Look at you, she knows how to be humble, and she dared to beg to me just now!"
The lady's eyes were complicated, she gave Su Jiu a distressed look, and looked at Emperor Zhaoping, "The little girl is young and ignorant, she offended the emperor, please forgive me!"
"No, I like her very much, and I hit it off! You will bring this girl to the palace more often, and I will have more fun!" Emperor Zhaoping looked at Su Jiu lovingly.
Su Jiu raised her brows slyly, "Am I becoming a nobleman?"
"Yes, from now on you will be my honored guest!" Emperor Zhaoping said happily.
The lady could not help but pursed her lips, and said, "It's getting late, the women are going to take the little girl out of the palace, the queen mother is waiting for the emperor, the emperor hurry in!"
"Okay!" Emperor Zhaoping stood up, looking at Bai Jingrou with deep eyes, "It's been cold these days, take care of yourself!"
"Yes, the emperor must take care of the dragon body!"
Su Jiu rolled her eyes on the two of them, and raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Girl, come to the palace with your mother some other day, and I'll give you a treat!" Emperor Zhaoping laughed.
"Okay!" Su Jiu pursed her lips in joy.
Emperor Zhaoping nodded with a smile, and went to the inner palace with his servants to greet Empress Dowager Xiao.
Su Jiu and Da Furen went out of the palace, sitting in the carriage, Su Jiu looked at her mother with a smile, "Mother and the Emperor really know each other well!"
The eldest lady glanced at her, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"This is what the emperor said, I'm not talking nonsense!" Su Jiu said with a meaningful smile.
The eldest lady took a deep breath and smiled, "It's some old friendship, there's no need to mention it anymore! Jiu'er, no matter how friendly the emperor is to you, you must remember that he is the emperor!"
Su Jiu leaned on the lady's lap, and said with a faint smile, "I know!"
The emperor likes her mostly because of her mother.
"Yeah!" The lady nodded, and gently stroked Su Jiu's long hair, "It may be a blessing that you didn't marry the prince. In the emperor's house, there are too many helplessness, and everything may not go according to your wishes in the future. You have a bad temper. If you are too straightforward and don’t know how to turn around, you will definitely suffer a lot.”
Su Jiu nodded, casually playing with the jade belt on the lady's clothes, "I know, I thought it was too simple before!"
She thought that Xiao Lie liked her, she just had to accept it, and then work hard to like him.
There are too many things separated between the two, she doesn't understand, so it is meaningless.
Or, she didn't like him enough to break through those barriers.
"Mother, do you like Su Wenqian?" Su Jiu asked.
The eldest lady shook her head slowly, "I don't like it."
"Then why did you marry him?"
"Because I can't help myself."
Su Jiu raised her eyes to look at the calm and gentle eyes of the Da Furen, a hint of thought slipped in her eyes, but she didn't ask any more questions.
At the beginning of September, Zhu Hecheng, Jin Sheng, Yu Xian and others involved in Xiao Jing's treason case were executed in public.
Ji Yuxian came back from the outside, his phoenix eyes swept the depths of the inner courtyard, and said with a smile, "How can the Second Madam not be allowed to celebrate such a big happy event today, Jin Feng, go and tell the Second Madam in person!"
Jin Feng rolled his eyes, nodded and said, "Yes!"
Ji Yuxian walked into the main courtyard slowly, pushed open the door of the study, and immediately frowned slightly.
Standing behind the desk, Chen Yuchan was looking at the painting he made in the morning, her fingers seemed to be dipped in something, and she was sipping on the painting.
Seeing Ji Yuxian coming in, Chen Yuchan was slightly startled, and immediately walked over with her hands clenched, and said with a little fear, "I made cakes for you today, and when I saw the paintings on the table, I couldn't help but look at them more. I glanced twice, please forgive me, my lord!"
Since Ji Yuxian tacitly allowed Chen Yuchan to enter the main courtyard, the woman came over every other day to deliver freshly made pastries.
Every time I come and go silently, I just let it go and leave. This is the first time I stayed.
Ji Yuxian's handsome face was gentle, he walked to the desk, glanced past the person in the painting, and stopped on her rouge lips, his eyes
Wei Liang smiled, but said with a smile, "What do Yu Chan think of the painting I drew?"
Hearing Ji Yuxian's question, Chen Yuchan was almost flattered, and hurriedly replied respectfully, "Extremely similar, and also extremely beautiful! The young master painted the young lady's eyebrows and smiles to the wood, and must be missing her deeply! My heart and mind are all young lady, so I can It's so vivid."
Ji Yuxian smiled handsomely, "Yuchan really understands."
Chen Yuchan turned around slightly, and said in a very low voice, "Because, the concubine's body is the same!"
She blushed after she finished speaking, as if she was afraid that Ji Yuxian would find her abrupt, so she hurriedly changed the subject, "I heard that the young lady returned to the house a few days ago, why didn't she stay? I miss you as much as my son!"
"She," Ji Yuxian's eyes dimmed slightly, his long fingers stroked the vivid eyes of the painter, and whispered, "I'll be back!"
"Yes, Young Madam, I was injured just now, and I probably can't put it down for a while," she paused, and hurriedly continued, "However, Young Madam will definitely figure it out and return to Young Master."
Ji Yuxian's face paled, he slowly rolled up the painting, and said in a deep voice, "I'm tired, Yuchan should go back!"
"Yes! Master, take care of yourself!" Chen Yuchan lowered her head and said softly, carrying the food box, turned and walked out.
Ji Yuxian indifferently looked at the woman's back as she walked away gracefully, with sparkles in her eyes, as if thinking of something, she suddenly pursed her lips and smiled.
Jin Feng entered Jinglan Garden, the yard was overgrown with weeds, it was cold and desolate, no one could be seen, it looked like a deserted yard.
Yuan'er was washing clothes in the backyard, Jin Feng knocked on the door, and it took a while to hear the second lady's hoarse voice, "Who is it, come in!"
Jin Feng opened the door and went in, stood a few feet away, and said, "This subordinate has seen the second lady!"
The second lady was sitting on the wooden chair, her body was thin and her hair was half a hundred. In just half a year, she was completely different from the delicate and dignified woman before.
The woman raised her eyelids and glanced at Jin Feng, then sneered, "Ji Yuxian asked you to see if I'm dead?"
Jin Feng said, "No, the eldest son asked his subordinates to report to the second lady."
"What's the matter?" The second lady brought tea, put it on her lips, and asked in a nonchalant tone.
"Zhu Hecheng colluded with King Zhao and Xie Shiyun, withheld relief food and bribed officials. Today, he has been executed!"
"Bang!" The teacup in the hands of the second lady fell to the ground and shattered, she looked up in disbelief, "What did you say? Brother, he, "
The second wife has been married to the Ji Mansion for more than 20 years, but she still cares most about the Zhu family. The death of Zhu Hecheng is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue to her.
"In addition, the government is searching and confiscating the Zhu family's mansion. The subordinates come down to remind the second lady whether there is any connection with Zhu Hecheng in the Zhu family, so as not to implicate the second young master! After all, because of the matter of the eldest lady, the emperor has already treated the second young master. There are complaints, and there is evidence against the second young master, the second young master will not only lose his official position, I am afraid, "
The second lady's face turned gray all of a sudden.
She did have some correspondence with Zhu Hecheng, which was her disclosure of some business affairs to Zhu Hecheng's Jifu, and the matter of helping Zhu Hecheng transfer some of the ill-gotten gains.
"Second Madam is a smart person, she must already know what to do? This subordinate resigns!"
Jin Feng said lightly, turned around and left.
The second lady closed her eyes, and fell limply on the wooden chair, her face covered with a layer of death.
She understood what Ji Yuxian meant, so she naturally didn't want to follow his will, but if she was alive, Ze'er would definitely be implicated.
The Zhu family is gone, and she can no longer live without Ze'er.
The second lady slowly opened her eyes, with determination in her eyes.
……
Now Jinglanyuan only has Yuan'er as a servant, who is responsible for all the errands in the yard, cleaning, washing clothes, and serving the second wife.
After she finished her work, she dragged her heavy body back to continue serving the second wife, and felt wrong as soon as she entered the door.
Walking a few steps quickly, and entering the inner room, I saw the second lady was fully dressed, her face was pale and painful, and white foam was spitting out of her mouth.
"Second Madam!" Yuan'er turned pale with shock, and plopped down on the low couch, "Second Madam, what's the matter with you, I'm going to call the doctor immediately!"
"No need!" The second lady opened her mouth with difficulty, and grabbed Yuan'er with her withered and yellow hands.
"I have already prepared this pack of arsenic. No one can save me!" The second lady closed her eyes and spoke weakly, black blood gushing out.
Yuan'er panicked and was at a loss, so she cried loudly, "Second Madam, why are you doing this? You have survived for so long, why don't you think about Master Ji Ze?"
The second lady gasped weakly, took a letter beside her and stuffed it in Yuan'er's hand, "You must give this letter to Ze'er!"
Yuan'er held the letter in her hand, cried bitterly and nodded, "Yes, I will definitely do it."
"Tell, Ze'er, everything I, what I did, was for, him!" The second lady finished the last sentence forcefully, closed her eyes, and lay there still.
Yuan'er fell on her body and cried loudly.
When the news of the second lady's death spread, the servants of the Ji Mansion didn't seem too surprised, as if they had already expected this day.
Only when Ji Ze went back to the mansion, he heard that the second wife had died, his vision went dark, and he passed out.
Yu Lao arranged people to prepare for the funeral in an orderly manner, and Yuan'er was kicked out of the mansion before Jize came back.
Yuan'er still held the second lady's last letter to Jize in her hand, she didn't dare to linger outside the door to attract suspicion, so she left secretly, looking for an opportunity to deliver the letter to Jize.
On the day of the funeral, Jize Daban led the funeral procession out of Shengjing City to go to the burial outside the city.
The second wife is a concubine, so she is not allowed to enter the ancestral grave, so she can only find another place to bury her.
After everyone left, Jize threw himself on the tombstone, crying loudly.
Suffering drastic changes, the once gentle young man looked sad and desperate, his face was full of vicissitudes, as if he had changed into a different person.
He thought that when his eldest brother calmed down and forgot what his mother did before, he would go to intercede, and everything would go back to the way it was before.
Why, why did mother leave all of a sudden?
The young man couldn't accept it all of a sudden, hated himself for being incompetent, hated that fate played tricks on him, full of grief and didn't know how to relieve it, so he kept crying.
"Second Young Master!"
A weeping sound came from behind, Jize turned his head suddenly, and saw his mother's personal maid, Yuan'er, coming from behind a tree.
"Yuan'er," Ji Ze stared blankly at her with tears all over his face, remembering that she served her mother before, but now things are changing, and it is even more sorrowful, tears streaming down.
Yuan'er came to the front, kowtowed a few times to the tombstone of the Second Madam, and cried, "Second Madam died so unjustly!"
"What did you say? How did mother die?" Jize asked in shock.
Yuan'er took out the letter in her arms and handed it to Jize, "The second young master will understand everything after reading it!"
Ji Ze hurriedly opened the envelope, only to see the paper covered in blood, which was shocking.
"Ze'er, Ji Yuxian killed me, ruined Zhu's family, and my mother died with hatred. You must avenge your mother and uncle!"
On a blood-red page, every word was filled with tears and hatred, Ji Ze's face changed drastically, and he shook his head in fear,
"No, the mother who won't kill my brother, no!"
"Second young master!" Yuan'er grasped Ji Ze's arm, her eyes were bloodshot, and she said in pain, "It was Ji Yuxian who locked the second lady in the yard where the sun was out, and let her fend for herself, and he was the one who forced the lady Take poison and kill yourself!"
"Madam did all this for you, you must avenge Madam!"
Jize covered his face and cried bitterly, "Why, this is why!"
He loves his elder brother and loves his mother. Why do they have such hatred?
"Second Madam is gone, Second Young Master must cheer up to avenge Second Madam!" Seeing Ji Ze crying bitterly, Yuan'er couldn't help crying bitterly while holding him.
After September, it rained for several days in a row.
The weather was cloudy and rainy, and the weather suddenly turned cold. Chen Yuchan asked his servants to prepare the car and go out, planning to personally pick a piece of material to make a cloak for Ji Yuxian.
Now that the second wife of Ji's mansion is dead, Ji Ze has been hit. Every day when he comes back from court, he stays in his own room, and only uses the side door to go in and out. It seems that apart from Ji Yuxian, she is the only master in the whole Ji's mansion.
Such a change made her feel closer to Ji Yuxian for no reason, and it was reasonable for her to think that she should care more about Ji Yuxian.
Coupled with the tacit consent of being able to enter the main courtyard at any time, it also made her more calm than before as the master of the Ji Mansion.
In addition, it seems that the servants in the mansion are more respectful to her!
Taking the maid out of the house, Chen Yuchan didn't go to Ji's own Yuyi workshop after going to the street, but went to several silk and satin shops carefully, and after careful comparison, she bought the material she was satisfied with.
Full of joy, he sat in the carriage and went back to Ji's mansion, imagining how Ji Yuxian would put it on, a shy smile could not help but overflow from the corners of his lips.
The carriage passed Zhuque Street, and suddenly I heard the servant girl say, "Fourth Young Madam, do you think that is the former Young Madam of our mansion?"
Chen Yuchan was stunned, and picked up the curtain of the car to look, and was immediately stunned there.
Su Jiu was wearing a men's robe, elegant and suave, with a handsome young man beside her, who was wrapping a cloak around her body, his movements were indescribably familiar and intimate, and another young man was holding an umbrella to cover her drizzle.
Su Jiu didn't shy away, chatting and laughing with the two of them, Yan Yan, after taking the umbrella,
Got into the carriage and left.
Chen Yuchan's eyes flickered, and she looked at Su Jiu meaningfully.
The little maid said, "Fourth Young Madam, is that really Young Madam? Why is that so?"
Debauchery?
The two teenagers knew who they were by looking at the gorgeous clothes on their bodies, and how could the young lady mix with these people.
Chen Yuchan rolled her eyes and whispered, "Go home!"
"Yes!"
Because of the rain, Su Jiu didn't go out for two days in a row. Today, it finally rained a little less. I wanted to come to the Qinglou to listen to the music to relieve my boredom, but I stayed for a while and felt inexplicably irritable.
After leaving Qinglou, he stayed in the business for half a day, and did not return to Su's house until it was almost dark.
The next day was still not sunny. At this time of the year, the drizzle is endless, which always makes people feel depressed.
Su Jiu played the piano with the eldest lady for a while in the morning, but was told by her mother that she was not paying attention, so she stopped playing at all.
I don't know if it was because of the rainy days, but Su Jiu's chest started to hurt again. When she opened the porcelain bottle that old man Gu gave her, she found that the medicine was gone.
Su Jiu asked Ermao to drive to Qinglou, and wanted to call Yin Xi to rub her head, but suddenly remembered that Yin Xi was gone.
Can't help getting more and more annoyed!
Su Jiu felt unwell in her chest and was irritable in her heart, so she asked the servant to recruit Qianqiu to play a tune for her.
The room was burning with drowsy agarwood, Su Jiuban leaned on the low couch, listening to the sound of rain outside the window, unconsciously closed her eyes.
When she was half asleep and half awake, it seemed that someone was gently rubbing the top of her head, the movements were gentle and delicate, her body gradually relaxed, she closed her eyes and smiled, "Yin Xi, your hands are a little cold today, but they are more comfortable than usual. !"
The hand that was pressing on her head paused slightly, and then continued to press her gently.
Su Jiu was confused, and said to herself, "Why are you so quiet today?"
Yes, it is indeed too quiet!
Not only did he not joke with her as usual, he even breathed so lightly that he carefully concealed it as if he was afraid she would hear it.
Su Jiu opened her eyes suddenly, stood up and turned her head.
The man behind him was still in the position of rubbing and pressing her, and looked at her in astonishment.
"Xia Shizi?" Su Jiu sneered, her eyes were cold, "Your Majesty has a tendency to be abused? Come to this brothel to put on shoes and rub someone's head, willing to be degraded."
The man's handsome face paled, and he said in a low voice, "For the boss, I am willing to do anything!"
"But I don't want to see you! Get out!" Su Jiu's brows turned cold.
The man's eyes were gloomy and thick, and he knelt down on one knee slowly, and said in a trembling voice, "Boss, I'm sorry for you! I admit that I wrote the letter to ask you to come back because I have selfish intentions, but I never thought of killing you, so I will kill you." I will not let anyone touch you! You are more important to me than my life!"
Su Jiu said lightly, "Xia Shizi, do you think I will let Xia Yulong go?"
Xia Huan's body trembled, and he said hoarsely, "I'll kill her, will the boss forgive me?"
"No one needs to kill her!" Su Jiu's eyes were as cold as snow, "I want to avenge my revenge! Xia Shizi is the younger brother of Princess Yulong, and your identity determines that we will be at odds, so in the future we will I don't hate you, but we didn't have any friendship before!"
Xia Huan lowered his head halfway, Xin Chang's body was bent, so heavy, he choked up and said, "Boss, this is not fair to me! I don't want the status of this son, you know!"
"One cannot choose one's own origin. You are the heir of the Yunnan Prince's Mansion, whether you admit it or not!" Su Jiu said in a low voice, stood up and turned her back to him and said, "Let's go!"
"Boss," Xia Huan was full of unwillingness.
"Go!" The girl's voice was decisive, beyond doubt.
Xia Huan closed his eyes, got up slowly, walked out of the room step by step, and closed the door carefully.
Su Jiu got down on the low couch, her face pale, and she suddenly shouted in a cold voice, "Where is Qian Qiu, why haven't you come yet?"
The servant immediately came in and said in panic, "Master Jiu, Miss Qianqiu was picked up by Mr. Ji's mansion last night, and she hasn't come back yet!"
"Bang!" With a loud noise, Su Jiu directly threw the teacup on the small table out.
It fell to pieces!
Recommend friend Gu Qingkuang's work "Medical Girl: Farming with Adorable Baby" in PK, please collect it
Once time travelling, she actually passed on the body of a peasant girl from the poorest household in history.
There are sick and weak little buns inside, and there are bitter relatives on the outside.
Gu Qiuqiao admitted.
Isn't it just a little poorer, she is a modern goddess doctor, can she starve to death?
Roll up your sleeves, gather herbs, do business, farm, and the poorest household becomes the richest household, envious of those poor relatives.
Say her husband is a fool?

Nima, a certain little husband got angry, turned over and the peasants sang, once the world was astonished.
Everyone was dumbfounded, they dared to believe that he was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger!
(End of this chapter)
As soon as Su Jiu entered the building, she was very eye-catching. Several familiar girls surrounded her, hugging her and walking towards her exclusive room.
After entering, serve tea, water and fruit snacks, being attentive and thoughtful.
Su Jiu leaned on the low couch, suddenly raised her eyebrows and looked out the door, and said softly, "You guys go down first!"
"Master Jiu has a guest coming?" A woman asked softly.
"Yes, I'll play with you guys later!" Su Jiu smiled lightly.
"The servants will come back later!"
Several women opened the door and filed out. Yulong who was standing at the door and the others all left before walking in slowly.
"It's really Miss Su?" Yulong looked at Su Jiu lightly, and smiled.
Su Jiu took an orange in her hand and peeled it slowly, raised her eyes and said with a smile, "The Crown Princess sent so many people to kill me, and they were determined to put me to death. The Crown Princess is naturally surprised that I am still alive." !"
"I knew you weren't dead!" Yulong smiled frankly, "Is Miss Su planning to take revenge on me when she comes back this time? Are you going to kill me?"
Su Jiu glanced at her disdainfully, "Is it necessary to plan to kill you?"
"Then what does Miss Su want to do? Take His Highness back? Now that His Highness has just sat on the crown prince and is not yet stable, if Miss Su really thinks about His Highness,"
Before Yulong could finish her sentence, she suddenly saw a black object flicked towards Su Jiu, she had no time to dodge it, the hidden weapon landed on her clothes, and with a whistling sound, it caught fire.
"Ah?" Yulong backed away in horror, slapping her chest vigorously with both hands.
Next to her, Qinglan frantically helped to slap her. Turning her head to see the water bottle on the table, she took it and splashed it on Yulong.
"Master hates other people talking about reasoning with you the most!" Su Jiu snorted coldly, pinching a black ball the size of a thumb in her hand, tilting her head and chuckling, Zhao Xiong sent someone to bring her this new gadget. good!
The fire on Yulong's body over there was finally extinguished. The clothes in front of her were scorched, smelling mushy, dripping wet, and it was a mess. Fortunately, the face and neck were not burned. Meat.
Yulong was still in shock, her face was pale and frightened, as if she didn't expect Su Jiu to attack someone suddenly.
Qing Lan felt sorry for her young lady, and cursed without any choice of words, "Bitch, you seduced His Highness, and dared to hurt our Crown Princess!"
Su Jiu glanced over with cold eyes, her eyes full of evil spirits, flicked her finger, and the black ball in her hand went straight towards Qinglan!
The hidden weapon shot straight at Qinglan's face, she tilted her head in a panic to avoid it, and only heard a sound of "chi", the hidden weapon brushed against her hair, and the hair burned quickly, crackling, accompanied by a strong scorching taste.
"Ah!" Qinglan shook her head in horror and backed away, tripped and rolled her body back and forth, her scalp was burning, her black hair seemed to be on fire, and she could not help but scream.
Yulong was also stunned at the side, looking at the rolling Qinglan at a loss, turned around and saw a little servant carrying hot water passing by, before she had time to think, she grabbed the basin and poured it on Qinglan.
After the fire was extinguished, a puff of black smoke came out, Qinglan's tender white face was flushed red from the heat, and she leaned against the wall dully with her hair that was burning like a chicken coop.
"Qinglan, how are you?" Yulong squatted down, caressing Qinglan's face, and turned her head to glare at Su Jiu, "How can Miss Su casually hurt someone?"
Su Jiu raised her eyebrows innocently, "The Crown Princess can kill people at will, but I'm just hurting people, and I'm far from the Crown Princess!"
"If you have hatred for me, why bother to hurt my maid?" Yulong said righteously.
"She scolded me, didn't the princess hear it?" Seeing the upright appearance of the woman, Su Jiu found it ridiculous.
Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief, her face and head felt a heart-wrenching pain, she couldn't help but said angrily, "Su Jiu, don't be too arrogant, I will definitely tell His Highness the Crown Prince that you have hurt our Crown Princess!"
"Okay, you go and tell him now!" Su Jiu nodded reassuringly, and smiled viciously, "See if he is willing to punish me for your princess?"
"You!" Yulong's face turned pale, her body trembled with anger, and she looked at Su Jiu with a dark look.
Su Jiu flicked her hands and got up, and said disgustedly, "This room is too smelly, I can't stay here any longer!"
After finishing speaking, he strode out, and when he passed the two of them, he looked back and smiled, "Next time we meet, the Crown Princess has some tricks to deal with the young master, so don't make any sense. There is only hatred between you and me, and there is nothing to say. Understand?"
Yulong raised her chin and looked at her coldly.
Su Jiu turned her head and went out.
"Too arrogant!" Qing Lan said angrily, "Crown Princess, we must tell His Highness!"
Yulong stood up with a flick of her sleeves, and said coldly, "So what, you didn't hear what she said just now, Your Highness will never do anything to her for me!"
"This breath, shall we just swallow it like this? Concubine, when have you ever suffered this kind of anger?" Qinglan cried with anger and hatred as her hair was burnt.
Yulong glanced at her, "Go home first!"
Su Jiu seems to be a little different from the woman she knew before!
Both of them were in a mess, Qinglan covered her head, feeling that others were watching them talking and laughing, she didn't dare to raise her head, she just walked out quickly while protecting Yulong.
It was already dark when we returned to the Prince's Mansion, and before we could change out our burnt clothes, we heard a message from someone, "Your Highness asked the Crown Princess and maid Qinglan to go to the main courtyard!"
"What's the matter?" Yulong asked.
"Your Highness didn't say anything!"
Qinglan said angrily, "It's just right, this servant is going to tell His Highness about the princess concubine being injured by Su Jiu!"
But Yulong frowned, feeling that it was not that simple for Xiao Lie to see her all of a sudden, at least, it was definitely not to protect her and punish Su Jiu.
Entering the main courtyard, Xiao Lie stood with his hands behind his back on the porch, dressed in black brocade clothes in the twilight, with a handsome face and a cold breath.
Qinglan hurried over and knelt on the ground first, choking with pain, "Your Highness, please make the decision for the princess! The princess was plotted against by Su Jiu today, her clothes were burned, and she was almost seriously injured!"
Yulong was still wearing burnt clothes, it was obvious at a glance, she didn't say much, blessed her body, and stood aside.
"What are you going to see Ah Jiu for?" Xiao Lie asked with a cold brow.
Qinglan was startled, and subconsciously looked at Yulong.
Yulong was in a mess, but she still stood upright, with a noble and inviolable dignity, and said in a leisurely manner, "I heard that Su Jiu has returned to Beijing, and I want to visit, and then I will tell you about the previous matter." She apologized and made amends! Probably Su Jiu was still angry with the concubine, and used the firearm before the concubine could speak."
"Yes!" Qinglan hastily echoed, "His Highness looked at the clothes of the Crown Princess and the hair of the servants. If we hadn't put out the fire in time, the two of us would have been burned to death by Su Jiu!"
Xiao Lie walked down the steps expressionlessly, glanced at Yulong, and landed on Qinglan, "What did you say about Ah Jiu?"
Qing Lan was startled, shook her head and said, "Your maidservant didn't say anything!"
"I heard from the servants of Qinglou that you scolded Ah Jiu, did you?" Xiao Lie's long eyes were deep and dark, with a murderous look between his brows.
Yulong raised her head suddenly.
really!He didn't protect her to vent his anger on her, but came to settle accounts with them for Su Jiu!
Qinglan plopped down on her knees, and said shyly, "This servant also sees that she is too arrogant, has no dignity in her eyes, and blatantly bullies the crown princess, so she speaks without choice."
"So you still scolded her?" Xiao Lie's face darkened, and he shouted, "Come here!"
"Your subordinate is here!" Two guards stepped forward to respond.
"Pull this maid down, slap her mouth thirty times, and throw her out of the house!" Xiao Lie ordered quietly.
Qinglan's face turned pale immediately, she hugged Yulong's leg, and said in panic, "Crown Princess, this servant is innocent, save this servant!"
The board used to punish the servant's mouth can break a mouth full of teeth in one stroke, and thirty strokes is almost fatal for a weak maid like Qinglan.
She knelt on the ground, crying miserably and begging for mercy, hugging Yulong's leg and refusing to let go.
"Crown princess, this servant has been with you since childhood, and I don't want to die. You beg for mercy on behalf of this servant! I dare not!"
Yulong's face turned pale, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Qinglan also cares for a while and then gets confused. She grew up with my concubine, can you please forgive her this time for the sake of my concubine!"
"No!" Xiao Lie's voice was indifferent, he turned and walked towards the inner hall, "Hurry up and drag it down!"
"Your Highness, Qinglan has already been injured by Su Jiu! Could it be that insulting Su Jiu will cost the life of a concubine and maid?" Yulong's voice trembled.
"Her ten lives are not as important as Ah Jiu's hair!" Xiao Lie's voice was indifferent.
Yulong's complexion was instantly pale and colorless.
Two guards took Qinglan's arm and walked out.
"Princess Concubine! Save this servant!" Qing Lan cried out in a shrill voice.
Yulong stood there with her body tense, looking at the indifferent back of the man in front of her,
The blood on his face faded, and he stood there for a long time, until the screams of his servant girl being beaten stopped, then turned around and walked towards his yard step by step.
That woman almost didn't need to say anything, she was already defeated!
She really didn't need to kill her, but she could make her suffer the pain of Ling Chi.
However, how could she, Xia Yulong, admit defeat until the end?
The next day, Su Jiu followed the eldest lady to meet the Empress Dowager Xiao.
After entering the Fushou Palace, Concubine Rong was also there, her eyes widened in shock when she heard the eldest lady introduce Su Jiu as her daughter.
"Su Jiu, why is it you?"
"Little girl, I have met the Empress Dowager, Concubine Rong!" Su Jiu greeted the two of them calmly.
Empress Dowager Xiao didn't realize it at first, she didn't understand why Concubine Rong was surprised, Su Jiu is the young wife of Ji Mansion and Bai Jingrou's daughter, isn't it normal?
Suddenly she remembered that Rong Guifei seemed to have told her that Mrs. Ji's young lady was a fake, a bandit pretending to be a bandit, so she also showed a shocked expression.
Since Su Jiu is a fake Miss Su family, why did Bai Jingrou bring her into the palace again?
Bai Jingrou knelt down in front of Empress Dowager Xiao, lowered her head and said, "Jingrou lied to Empress Dowager earlier, please forgive me!"
"What's going on here?" Empress Dowager Xiao went to help Bai Jingrou up.
Bai Jingrou didn't get up, lost her daughter when she was five years old, bumped all the way to Yuhu Mountain and became a bandit.Two years ago, the second wife and Su Wenqian colluded and planned to marry the second lady Su Yueqiu into the Ji Mansion, but they were robbed by bandits halfway, and then it happened that Su Jiu went to Beijing pretending to be Miss Su's family.
When Empress Dowager Xiao and Rong Gui heard the whole story, they were momentarily shocked and speechless.
Is there such a coincidence in the world?
Concubine Rong looked at Su Jiu with complicated eyes. It turned out that she was Bai Jingrou's daughter.
It turned out that the person Xiao Lie liked turned out to be Bai Jingrou's daughter.
At this moment, she suddenly believed in the reincarnation of heaven.
"Before Jingrou didn't know that Jiu'er was in Shengjing, and she concealed Su Wenqian's marriage to the concubine's daughter to enter the Ji Mansion, and asked the Queen Mother to punish her!" Bai Jingrou said in a low voice.
"You have suffered enough these years, how can the Ai family be willing to punish you!" The Empress Dowager Xiao helped the eldest lady up, held Su Jiu's hand, her eyes were loving, "No wonder the Ai family felt kind to this girl when she saw her. There is such a reason in the middle! Child, you have suffered too!"
Seeing that Empress Dowager Xiao really cared for her, Su Jiu couldn't help feeling soft, and said with a smile, "Don't blame me for lying to you, Empress Dowager!"
"You girl is also bold, a woman is actually a bandit!" Empress Dowager Xiao shook her head and laughed.
Su Jiu said frankly, "It's just that I'm hungry and can't help it!"
With this sentence, Empress Dowager Xiao almost shed tears, "It's all Aijia's fault, otherwise, such a thing would not have happened. Your mother and daughter have been separated for 12 years, and Aijia feels heartbroken just thinking about it!"
Bai Jingrou and Concubine Rong Gui supported Empress Dowager Xiao, and hurriedly comforted her softly.
Several people sat down and talked for a while, Su Jiu gradually became impatient and slipped out under the pretext of going to the toilet.
Su Jiu had been to the palace a few times, but she didn't have anything to go to. She just sat on the waterside pavilion on the side of the veranda to watch the scenery in the lake, and waited for the Da Furen and Empress Dowager Xiao to finish talking and leave the palace together.
Just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the sky is high and the air is refreshing,
The breeze was warm, and Su Jiu was holding a willow branch in her mouth. She was so bored by herself that she was about to fall asleep.
"Rou'er?"
Suddenly, there was a deep, bone-piercing, low-pitched cry from behind.
Su Jiu opened her eyes suddenly, and turned her head to see a man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe standing a few meters away, followed by two palace attendants.
She had never met Emperor Zhaoping, but she knew who it was by looking at his clothes, she jumped down from the wooden corridor, lowered her eyes to say hello, "Little girl has seen the emperor!"
Emperor Zhaoping saw the girl's face clearly, the tenderness in his eyes had disappeared, and he regained his graceful and dignified aura, and asked softly, "Who are you?"
Su Jiu's voice was clear, neither humble nor overbearing, "The little girl is Bai Jingrou's daughter, Su Yuejiu!"
"Are you Jingrou's daughter?" Emperor Zhaoping asked in astonishment, and laughed softly, "No wonder I just thought you had the charm of her youth."
Su Jiu raised her head, turned her eyes and smiled, "The emperor knows my mother?"
"Yes, we not only know each other, but we are also acquainted with each other!" Zhaoping Emperor Yan Yan said with a smile.
His face was slightly thinner than before, and he had been poisoned for many days. Even if he got rid of the poison later, it would still damage the foundation of his body.
"You came with your mother?" Emperor Zhaoping smiled gently, like an ordinary elder.
"Yes!"
"Then why are you here alone?"
"It's too stuffy in the room, so I came out for a walk!" Su Jiu's eyes were bright and she smiled frankly.
Emperor Zhaoping laughed happily, "Your temperament is somewhat similar to that of your mother when she was young!"
Su Jiu sat on the wooden porch and said with a smile, "The Emperor is not quite what I imagined."
"Oh? What do you think I look like?" Emperor Zhaoping sat across from Su Jiu amiably.
"I thought being an emperor would be surrounded by ministers every day, and even going to the toilet would be surrounded by hundreds of people!" Su Jiu used to follow Hu Dapao to the village at the foot of the mountain to listen to books. That's what the old man said, which made her once I also sympathize with Xiao Lie.
Emperor Zhaoping laughed "haha", "Then I am really miserable!"
"Those 100 people are forced to watch you go to the toilet every day. They are also very hard!" Su Jiu said seriously.
Maybe you have to pretend to be very fragrant and enjoy it.
"Haha!" Emperor Zhaoping leaned back and laughed, and the palace servant who was guarding in the distance looked over in horror.
When the eldest lady came out to look for Su Jiu, she saw Su Jiu sitting cross-legged on a wooden chair under the water pavilion in the pavilion, talking and laughing with Emperor Zhaoping, their spirits dancing, and they didn't even see her coming over. .
"Jiu'er!" The eldest lady yelled and walked over.
"Mother!" Su Jiu looked back and smiled.
"Jingrou, your daughter is so interesting. I want to have another son. I will definitely let her marry into the palace to entertain me every day!" Emperor Zhaoping's face was flushed, he seemed to be in a good mood, and his complexion was much better than before.
Su Jiu lowered her eyes and smiled, "The status of a civilian girl is low, how can she be worthy of a prince?"
Emperor Zhaoping laughed, pointed at Su Jiu and said to the eldest lady, "Look at you, she knows how to be humble, and she dared to beg to me just now!"
The lady's eyes were complicated, she gave Su Jiu a distressed look, and looked at Emperor Zhaoping, "The little girl is young and ignorant, she offended the emperor, please forgive me!"
"No, I like her very much, and I hit it off! You will bring this girl to the palace more often, and I will have more fun!" Emperor Zhaoping looked at Su Jiu lovingly.
Su Jiu raised her brows slyly, "Am I becoming a nobleman?"
"Yes, from now on you will be my honored guest!" Emperor Zhaoping said happily.
The lady could not help but pursed her lips, and said, "It's getting late, the women are going to take the little girl out of the palace, the queen mother is waiting for the emperor, the emperor hurry in!"
"Okay!" Emperor Zhaoping stood up, looking at Bai Jingrou with deep eyes, "It's been cold these days, take care of yourself!"
"Yes, the emperor must take care of the dragon body!"
Su Jiu rolled her eyes on the two of them, and raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Girl, come to the palace with your mother some other day, and I'll give you a treat!" Emperor Zhaoping laughed.
"Okay!" Su Jiu pursed her lips in joy.
Emperor Zhaoping nodded with a smile, and went to the inner palace with his servants to greet Empress Dowager Xiao.
Su Jiu and Da Furen went out of the palace, sitting in the carriage, Su Jiu looked at her mother with a smile, "Mother and the Emperor really know each other well!"
The eldest lady glanced at her, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"This is what the emperor said, I'm not talking nonsense!" Su Jiu said with a meaningful smile.
The eldest lady took a deep breath and smiled, "It's some old friendship, there's no need to mention it anymore! Jiu'er, no matter how friendly the emperor is to you, you must remember that he is the emperor!"
Su Jiu leaned on the lady's lap, and said with a faint smile, "I know!"
The emperor likes her mostly because of her mother.
"Yeah!" The lady nodded, and gently stroked Su Jiu's long hair, "It may be a blessing that you didn't marry the prince. In the emperor's house, there are too many helplessness, and everything may not go according to your wishes in the future. You have a bad temper. If you are too straightforward and don’t know how to turn around, you will definitely suffer a lot.”
Su Jiu nodded, casually playing with the jade belt on the lady's clothes, "I know, I thought it was too simple before!"
She thought that Xiao Lie liked her, she just had to accept it, and then work hard to like him.
There are too many things separated between the two, she doesn't understand, so it is meaningless.
Or, she didn't like him enough to break through those barriers.
"Mother, do you like Su Wenqian?" Su Jiu asked.
The eldest lady shook her head slowly, "I don't like it."
"Then why did you marry him?"
"Because I can't help myself."
Su Jiu raised her eyes to look at the calm and gentle eyes of the Da Furen, a hint of thought slipped in her eyes, but she didn't ask any more questions.
At the beginning of September, Zhu Hecheng, Jin Sheng, Yu Xian and others involved in Xiao Jing's treason case were executed in public.
Ji Yuxian came back from the outside, his phoenix eyes swept the depths of the inner courtyard, and said with a smile, "How can the Second Madam not be allowed to celebrate such a big happy event today, Jin Feng, go and tell the Second Madam in person!"
Jin Feng rolled his eyes, nodded and said, "Yes!"
Ji Yuxian walked into the main courtyard slowly, pushed open the door of the study, and immediately frowned slightly.
Standing behind the desk, Chen Yuchan was looking at the painting he made in the morning, her fingers seemed to be dipped in something, and she was sipping on the painting.
Seeing Ji Yuxian coming in, Chen Yuchan was slightly startled, and immediately walked over with her hands clenched, and said with a little fear, "I made cakes for you today, and when I saw the paintings on the table, I couldn't help but look at them more. I glanced twice, please forgive me, my lord!"
Since Ji Yuxian tacitly allowed Chen Yuchan to enter the main courtyard, the woman came over every other day to deliver freshly made pastries.
Every time I come and go silently, I just let it go and leave. This is the first time I stayed.
Ji Yuxian's handsome face was gentle, he walked to the desk, glanced past the person in the painting, and stopped on her rouge lips, his eyes
Wei Liang smiled, but said with a smile, "What do Yu Chan think of the painting I drew?"
Hearing Ji Yuxian's question, Chen Yuchan was almost flattered, and hurriedly replied respectfully, "Extremely similar, and also extremely beautiful! The young master painted the young lady's eyebrows and smiles to the wood, and must be missing her deeply! My heart and mind are all young lady, so I can It's so vivid."
Ji Yuxian smiled handsomely, "Yuchan really understands."
Chen Yuchan turned around slightly, and said in a very low voice, "Because, the concubine's body is the same!"
She blushed after she finished speaking, as if she was afraid that Ji Yuxian would find her abrupt, so she hurriedly changed the subject, "I heard that the young lady returned to the house a few days ago, why didn't she stay? I miss you as much as my son!"
"She," Ji Yuxian's eyes dimmed slightly, his long fingers stroked the vivid eyes of the painter, and whispered, "I'll be back!"
"Yes, Young Madam, I was injured just now, and I probably can't put it down for a while," she paused, and hurriedly continued, "However, Young Madam will definitely figure it out and return to Young Master."
Ji Yuxian's face paled, he slowly rolled up the painting, and said in a deep voice, "I'm tired, Yuchan should go back!"
"Yes! Master, take care of yourself!" Chen Yuchan lowered her head and said softly, carrying the food box, turned and walked out.
Ji Yuxian indifferently looked at the woman's back as she walked away gracefully, with sparkles in her eyes, as if thinking of something, she suddenly pursed her lips and smiled.
Jin Feng entered Jinglan Garden, the yard was overgrown with weeds, it was cold and desolate, no one could be seen, it looked like a deserted yard.
Yuan'er was washing clothes in the backyard, Jin Feng knocked on the door, and it took a while to hear the second lady's hoarse voice, "Who is it, come in!"
Jin Feng opened the door and went in, stood a few feet away, and said, "This subordinate has seen the second lady!"
The second lady was sitting on the wooden chair, her body was thin and her hair was half a hundred. In just half a year, she was completely different from the delicate and dignified woman before.
The woman raised her eyelids and glanced at Jin Feng, then sneered, "Ji Yuxian asked you to see if I'm dead?"
Jin Feng said, "No, the eldest son asked his subordinates to report to the second lady."
"What's the matter?" The second lady brought tea, put it on her lips, and asked in a nonchalant tone.
"Zhu Hecheng colluded with King Zhao and Xie Shiyun, withheld relief food and bribed officials. Today, he has been executed!"
"Bang!" The teacup in the hands of the second lady fell to the ground and shattered, she looked up in disbelief, "What did you say? Brother, he, "
The second wife has been married to the Ji Mansion for more than 20 years, but she still cares most about the Zhu family. The death of Zhu Hecheng is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue to her.
"In addition, the government is searching and confiscating the Zhu family's mansion. The subordinates come down to remind the second lady whether there is any connection with Zhu Hecheng in the Zhu family, so as not to implicate the second young master! After all, because of the matter of the eldest lady, the emperor has already treated the second young master. There are complaints, and there is evidence against the second young master, the second young master will not only lose his official position, I am afraid, "
The second lady's face turned gray all of a sudden.
She did have some correspondence with Zhu Hecheng, which was her disclosure of some business affairs to Zhu Hecheng's Jifu, and the matter of helping Zhu Hecheng transfer some of the ill-gotten gains.
"Second Madam is a smart person, she must already know what to do? This subordinate resigns!"
Jin Feng said lightly, turned around and left.
The second lady closed her eyes, and fell limply on the wooden chair, her face covered with a layer of death.
She understood what Ji Yuxian meant, so she naturally didn't want to follow his will, but if she was alive, Ze'er would definitely be implicated.
The Zhu family is gone, and she can no longer live without Ze'er.
The second lady slowly opened her eyes, with determination in her eyes.
……
Now Jinglanyuan only has Yuan'er as a servant, who is responsible for all the errands in the yard, cleaning, washing clothes, and serving the second wife.
After she finished her work, she dragged her heavy body back to continue serving the second wife, and felt wrong as soon as she entered the door.
Walking a few steps quickly, and entering the inner room, I saw the second lady was fully dressed, her face was pale and painful, and white foam was spitting out of her mouth.
"Second Madam!" Yuan'er turned pale with shock, and plopped down on the low couch, "Second Madam, what's the matter with you, I'm going to call the doctor immediately!"
"No need!" The second lady opened her mouth with difficulty, and grabbed Yuan'er with her withered and yellow hands.
"I have already prepared this pack of arsenic. No one can save me!" The second lady closed her eyes and spoke weakly, black blood gushing out.
Yuan'er panicked and was at a loss, so she cried loudly, "Second Madam, why are you doing this? You have survived for so long, why don't you think about Master Ji Ze?"
The second lady gasped weakly, took a letter beside her and stuffed it in Yuan'er's hand, "You must give this letter to Ze'er!"
Yuan'er held the letter in her hand, cried bitterly and nodded, "Yes, I will definitely do it."
"Tell, Ze'er, everything I, what I did, was for, him!" The second lady finished the last sentence forcefully, closed her eyes, and lay there still.
Yuan'er fell on her body and cried loudly.
When the news of the second lady's death spread, the servants of the Ji Mansion didn't seem too surprised, as if they had already expected this day.
Only when Ji Ze went back to the mansion, he heard that the second wife had died, his vision went dark, and he passed out.
Yu Lao arranged people to prepare for the funeral in an orderly manner, and Yuan'er was kicked out of the mansion before Jize came back.
Yuan'er still held the second lady's last letter to Jize in her hand, she didn't dare to linger outside the door to attract suspicion, so she left secretly, looking for an opportunity to deliver the letter to Jize.
On the day of the funeral, Jize Daban led the funeral procession out of Shengjing City to go to the burial outside the city.
The second wife is a concubine, so she is not allowed to enter the ancestral grave, so she can only find another place to bury her.
After everyone left, Jize threw himself on the tombstone, crying loudly.
Suffering drastic changes, the once gentle young man looked sad and desperate, his face was full of vicissitudes, as if he had changed into a different person.
He thought that when his eldest brother calmed down and forgot what his mother did before, he would go to intercede, and everything would go back to the way it was before.
Why, why did mother leave all of a sudden?
The young man couldn't accept it all of a sudden, hated himself for being incompetent, hated that fate played tricks on him, full of grief and didn't know how to relieve it, so he kept crying.
"Second Young Master!"
A weeping sound came from behind, Jize turned his head suddenly, and saw his mother's personal maid, Yuan'er, coming from behind a tree.
"Yuan'er," Ji Ze stared blankly at her with tears all over his face, remembering that she served her mother before, but now things are changing, and it is even more sorrowful, tears streaming down.
Yuan'er came to the front, kowtowed a few times to the tombstone of the Second Madam, and cried, "Second Madam died so unjustly!"
"What did you say? How did mother die?" Jize asked in shock.
Yuan'er took out the letter in her arms and handed it to Jize, "The second young master will understand everything after reading it!"
Ji Ze hurriedly opened the envelope, only to see the paper covered in blood, which was shocking.
"Ze'er, Ji Yuxian killed me, ruined Zhu's family, and my mother died with hatred. You must avenge your mother and uncle!"
On a blood-red page, every word was filled with tears and hatred, Ji Ze's face changed drastically, and he shook his head in fear,
"No, the mother who won't kill my brother, no!"
"Second young master!" Yuan'er grasped Ji Ze's arm, her eyes were bloodshot, and she said in pain, "It was Ji Yuxian who locked the second lady in the yard where the sun was out, and let her fend for herself, and he was the one who forced the lady Take poison and kill yourself!"
"Madam did all this for you, you must avenge Madam!"
Jize covered his face and cried bitterly, "Why, this is why!"
He loves his elder brother and loves his mother. Why do they have such hatred?
"Second Madam is gone, Second Young Master must cheer up to avenge Second Madam!" Seeing Ji Ze crying bitterly, Yuan'er couldn't help crying bitterly while holding him.
After September, it rained for several days in a row.
The weather was cloudy and rainy, and the weather suddenly turned cold. Chen Yuchan asked his servants to prepare the car and go out, planning to personally pick a piece of material to make a cloak for Ji Yuxian.
Now that the second wife of Ji's mansion is dead, Ji Ze has been hit. Every day when he comes back from court, he stays in his own room, and only uses the side door to go in and out. It seems that apart from Ji Yuxian, she is the only master in the whole Ji's mansion.
Such a change made her feel closer to Ji Yuxian for no reason, and it was reasonable for her to think that she should care more about Ji Yuxian.
Coupled with the tacit consent of being able to enter the main courtyard at any time, it also made her more calm than before as the master of the Ji Mansion.
In addition, it seems that the servants in the mansion are more respectful to her!
Taking the maid out of the house, Chen Yuchan didn't go to Ji's own Yuyi workshop after going to the street, but went to several silk and satin shops carefully, and after careful comparison, she bought the material she was satisfied with.
Full of joy, he sat in the carriage and went back to Ji's mansion, imagining how Ji Yuxian would put it on, a shy smile could not help but overflow from the corners of his lips.
The carriage passed Zhuque Street, and suddenly I heard the servant girl say, "Fourth Young Madam, do you think that is the former Young Madam of our mansion?"
Chen Yuchan was stunned, and picked up the curtain of the car to look, and was immediately stunned there.
Su Jiu was wearing a men's robe, elegant and suave, with a handsome young man beside her, who was wrapping a cloak around her body, his movements were indescribably familiar and intimate, and another young man was holding an umbrella to cover her drizzle.
Su Jiu didn't shy away, chatting and laughing with the two of them, Yan Yan, after taking the umbrella,
Got into the carriage and left.
Chen Yuchan's eyes flickered, and she looked at Su Jiu meaningfully.
The little maid said, "Fourth Young Madam, is that really Young Madam? Why is that so?"
Debauchery?
The two teenagers knew who they were by looking at the gorgeous clothes on their bodies, and how could the young lady mix with these people.
Chen Yuchan rolled her eyes and whispered, "Go home!"
"Yes!"
Because of the rain, Su Jiu didn't go out for two days in a row. Today, it finally rained a little less. I wanted to come to the Qinglou to listen to the music to relieve my boredom, but I stayed for a while and felt inexplicably irritable.
After leaving Qinglou, he stayed in the business for half a day, and did not return to Su's house until it was almost dark.
The next day was still not sunny. At this time of the year, the drizzle is endless, which always makes people feel depressed.
Su Jiu played the piano with the eldest lady for a while in the morning, but was told by her mother that she was not paying attention, so she stopped playing at all.
I don't know if it was because of the rainy days, but Su Jiu's chest started to hurt again. When she opened the porcelain bottle that old man Gu gave her, she found that the medicine was gone.
Su Jiu asked Ermao to drive to Qinglou, and wanted to call Yin Xi to rub her head, but suddenly remembered that Yin Xi was gone.
Can't help getting more and more annoyed!
Su Jiu felt unwell in her chest and was irritable in her heart, so she asked the servant to recruit Qianqiu to play a tune for her.
The room was burning with drowsy agarwood, Su Jiuban leaned on the low couch, listening to the sound of rain outside the window, unconsciously closed her eyes.
When she was half asleep and half awake, it seemed that someone was gently rubbing the top of her head, the movements were gentle and delicate, her body gradually relaxed, she closed her eyes and smiled, "Yin Xi, your hands are a little cold today, but they are more comfortable than usual. !"
The hand that was pressing on her head paused slightly, and then continued to press her gently.
Su Jiu was confused, and said to herself, "Why are you so quiet today?"
Yes, it is indeed too quiet!
Not only did he not joke with her as usual, he even breathed so lightly that he carefully concealed it as if he was afraid she would hear it.
Su Jiu opened her eyes suddenly, stood up and turned her head.
The man behind him was still in the position of rubbing and pressing her, and looked at her in astonishment.
"Xia Shizi?" Su Jiu sneered, her eyes were cold, "Your Majesty has a tendency to be abused? Come to this brothel to put on shoes and rub someone's head, willing to be degraded."
The man's handsome face paled, and he said in a low voice, "For the boss, I am willing to do anything!"
"But I don't want to see you! Get out!" Su Jiu's brows turned cold.
The man's eyes were gloomy and thick, and he knelt down on one knee slowly, and said in a trembling voice, "Boss, I'm sorry for you! I admit that I wrote the letter to ask you to come back because I have selfish intentions, but I never thought of killing you, so I will kill you." I will not let anyone touch you! You are more important to me than my life!"
Su Jiu said lightly, "Xia Shizi, do you think I will let Xia Yulong go?"
Xia Huan's body trembled, and he said hoarsely, "I'll kill her, will the boss forgive me?"
"No one needs to kill her!" Su Jiu's eyes were as cold as snow, "I want to avenge my revenge! Xia Shizi is the younger brother of Princess Yulong, and your identity determines that we will be at odds, so in the future we will I don't hate you, but we didn't have any friendship before!"
Xia Huan lowered his head halfway, Xin Chang's body was bent, so heavy, he choked up and said, "Boss, this is not fair to me! I don't want the status of this son, you know!"
"One cannot choose one's own origin. You are the heir of the Yunnan Prince's Mansion, whether you admit it or not!" Su Jiu said in a low voice, stood up and turned her back to him and said, "Let's go!"
"Boss," Xia Huan was full of unwillingness.
"Go!" The girl's voice was decisive, beyond doubt.
Xia Huan closed his eyes, got up slowly, walked out of the room step by step, and closed the door carefully.
Su Jiu got down on the low couch, her face pale, and she suddenly shouted in a cold voice, "Where is Qian Qiu, why haven't you come yet?"
The servant immediately came in and said in panic, "Master Jiu, Miss Qianqiu was picked up by Mr. Ji's mansion last night, and she hasn't come back yet!"
"Bang!" With a loud noise, Su Jiu directly threw the teacup on the small table out.
It fell to pieces!
