Concubine's true colors

Chapter 391 Imprisoned for Life
All the plain white mourning clothes were taken off, and a dark purple cloud brocade dress was added to the body.

Today's Xiao Jinxuan's unlovable attitude in the past has all disappeared, and a trace of chilling and cold air lingers on her body for a long time.

Zhu Xin, who followed closely beside her, had a very close relationship with Chi Ling and the others in the past, so she turned around and looked at the thirty soldiers brought from Prince Rui's residence, and said with hatred:

"Miss has Prince Rui's help this time, even if a family member in the mansion resists, we will not reject him. When I think of Ling Xiao and others who died, and Bai Shu who is now missing, I feel so sad that I want to cry."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help smiling calmly, and then stretched out her hand to pat the dumpling beside her twice.

"Don't worry, now there are thirty soldiers from Prince Rui's mansion here, and Tuanzi are here to hold the line. I want to see, now that I'm back, who can drive me out of the mansion by force."

Perhaps it was the last time the family temple Xiao Jinxuan was in danger, which really left a big shadow on Tuanzi.

So now this little guy follows Xiao Jinxuan every step of the way, no matter where the other party goes, if he doesn't take it with him.

Tuanzi, who has always been gluttonous, actually went on a hunger strike to protest, and had to stay by the other party's side life and death.

And seeing Xiao Jinxuan looking at her, the dumpling who was sitting on the ground well, stood up straight as if being praised.

Looking at the simple and honest appearance of Tuanzi standing upright and almost as tall as herself, Xiao Jinxuan immediately smiled and patted the little guy's head comfortingly.

Then she asked Zhu Xin to knock on the door, and waited until the concierge opened the door.

Looking at the battle of Xiao Jinxuan with her own soldiers in front of her, the servant hurriedly greeted her and asked:

"Miss Jinxuan, you are back. I just don't know about these people. Could it be that you have to bring them into the mansion? The little one is just a gatekeeper. If I let these people from the outer mansion in, the eldest lady will know about it." , she must punish me heavily."

Hearing these words, Xiao Jinxuan signaled the people behind to follow closely, and didn't stop, but said coldly:
"Be good at your job, don't worry, Mrs. Zhao will never have a chance to punish you again, so you don't have to worry."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Jinxuan rushed directly to the Taining Courtyard where the old lady lived.

Because if she remembers the time correctly, the time when she comes back now is exactly the time for all the houses to pay their respects to the old lady.

And as Xiao Jinxuan expected, after she entered the Taining Courtyard, before she entered the main room of the main house, bursts of laughter came out, which annoyed her very much.

Thinking of Shen's death now, this group of people can still be so happy in the mansion.

Xiao Jinxuan immediately ordered the thirty soldiers who came with her to stay outside, while she took Zhu Xin and Tuanzi and directly kicked the door into the main room.

"Bang Dang", the sound of the door being kicked, naturally interrupted the laughter of everyone in the room.

And when Xiao Jinxuan came in, she could see Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Xiao Jinyu sitting on both sides of the old lady, and Mrs. Yang and Empress Sun Xiru were at the bottom.

She couldn't help raising her eyebrows slightly, and said with an inaudible laugh:
"It's really good. Since you are all in the Taining Courtyard, it saves me to search for them one by one. The second aunt died tragically in the family temple fire, and the mother and daughter of Qian's family also died. A little bit of family affection, presumably shouldn't be smiling like just now."

The news that Xiao Jinxuan was rescued by Prince Rui was known to the Shuaifu.

But no one thought that Xiao Jinxuan would come back so suddenly, so after everyone was surprised for a moment, Xiao Jinyu immediately stood up and said:

"Xiao Jinxuan, you are blaming us for failing. It is the Yin Yamen of the capital who said they would keep their bodies to assist in the investigation. Although our Xiao family is a big clan, we have always been most consistent with the imperial court's regulations. And it is possible that they are dead. Well, everyone in my commander-in-chief's mansion still needs to wear hemp and filial piety. Now that my grandmother is still alive, it is already unfilial for a daughter-in-law to die first. According to my Dazhou custom, there is no need to hang white silk in the mansion. And you are just a concubine of the Xiao family. Girl, don't you think you've gone too far?"

After listening to Xiao Jinyu's words without any ups and downs, Xiao Jinxuan just gave her a cold look, and then said to Zhu Xin beside her:

"Look at this good sister of mine, she talks about the dignity of the concubine. But she always only remembers that I am her concubine, but she always forgets that I am also the Princess Zhaoyang of Da Zhou. Don't bear it, Zhu Xin. Now, slap her on the mouth for me, and tell Xiao Jinyu to remember well. I don't like others, who keep disturbing my purity with unpleasant words."

Hearing this, Zhu Xin also hated the Xiao family because of the death of Chi Ling and others.

She didn't even hesitate for a moment, and before Xiao Jinyu could react, she stepped forward and slapped seven or eight resounding slaps from left and right, and all of them hit the face that was carefully maintained in the opposite direction.

Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan just came in, she ordered Zhu Xin to beat someone, and the old lady who loved Xiao Jinyu the most immediately shouted tremblingly with anger:

"Eldest daughter-in-law, Yang Shi, why don't you hurry up and stop her. Are the people outside dead? Hurry up and let me in. Lock this disobedient and unfilial Xiao Jinxuan into the Lianqiao Courtyard. I don't have a granddaughter like her."

Hearing these words, Xiao Jinxuan looked at the old lady without a trace of emotion in her eyes, and then said with a contemptuous smile on the corner of her mouth:

"Granddaughter? Mrs. Xiao, when did your old man regard me, Xiao Jinxuan, as your granddaughter? Since the first day I came to the commander's mansion, you have tried everything possible to drive me out. Not long ago, you succeeded , but indirectly, I went to visit my second aunt and died tragically at the family temple. Now it's not that you don't recognize me, but that I, Xiao Jinxuan, don't recognize you as relatives anymore."

And just as Xiao Jinxuan was speaking, Zhao Shi and the others also rushed forward, ready to rescue Xiao Jinyu, who was bleeding from the corner of her mouth.

But at this moment, the tuanzi who was guarding the side immediately uttered a deafening beast roar, and everyone in the room was immediately frightened to the point of not daring to move.

Although he was afraid of the appearance of Tuanzi's fangs and claws fully extended.

But Sun Xiru, who has always been the most hostile to Xiao Jinxuan, still couldn't help but say:
"Xiao Jinxuan, don't be too arrogant. Zhou Xianyu is dead now. King Yongchang can't protect himself. Do you think your reputation as the princess is of any use? You dare to hurt sister Jinyu, Master Ji and Queen Xue Empress, I will never let you go."

A cold light flashed in the depths of her eyes, and Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help looking at Sun Xiru who was cursing endlessly at her.

Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help being a little curious, how did Sun Xiru know that her prince and adoptive father could not protect herself, and this meant that the other party must know some valuable news.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jinxuan narrowed her eyes slightly, then raised her voice to the outside of the room and said:
"Come here, temporarily detain this Sun Xiru for me, and then send it to Lianqiao Yuan, and take this Xiao Jinyu away with me."

In the past, Xiao Jinxuan might have some concerns about doing things.

But now the court situation in the capital is turbulent, and the order has long been in chaos.

Therefore, although she is the princess, she has no right to detain and interrogate others.

But seeing that Sun Xiru must know something that must be useful to her, then Xiao Jinxuan will naturally not be polite to him.

And when the soldiers from Prince Rui's residence rushed in, tied up Sun Xiru and took them away together with Xiao Jinyu.

Seeing that Mrs. Yang rushed out suddenly, like an old hen protecting the chicks, she blocked the door desperately, and shouted mournfully:

"No one is allowed to take Xiru away, Xiao Jinxuan, what on earth do you want to do? If you still care about the little bit of mother-daughter relationship between us, and regard me as the mother who has raised you for more than ten years, then don't do it." Tell me to hate your whole life."

She calmly lowered her head and smiled, Xiao Jinxuan came to Yang's in a few steps.

After looking at the other person's face that she was familiar with, but now felt very strange to her, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help saying in a cold tone:
"Mr. Yang, I'm afraid you are wrong. When did I have any mother-daughter relationship with you? In your eyes, I will always be a disaster, a useless person who is an eyesore. And your so-called nurturing Well, just leave me in Meizhuang for more than ten years and let me be bullied by the servants."

Having said that, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help taking a deep breath.

Because if it wasn't for Yang's baby change back then, she might have returned to Beirong, possessed her true identity, and lived a carefree life.

And if that was the case, she wouldn't have met Zhou Xianyu, and she wouldn't have caused him to fight for her, but now he died tragically.

So after calming down a little bit, Xiao Jinxuan clenched her hands into fists, and looked at Yang Shi and said with great annoyance:
"All of today's events, in the final analysis, were caused by you back then. Now Sun Xiru will let me handle it. In fact, you owe me Xiao Jinxuan. And you Yang, if you want to hate, I should hate you all these years It’s cold and meaningless. Don’t use any mother-daughter relationship to try to persuade me. Maybe I will give you some face before. But now I will not be soft to anyone who hurt me, so don’t waste your efforts in vain .”

Upon hearing this, Yang's face immediately turned pale, remembering the last time when she knelt down, Xiao Jinxuan was moved.

Immediately, Yang shi knelt down in front of Xiao Jinxuan, wept bitterly and grabbed the corner of the other party's skirt, and then begged and said:

"Jinxuan, I beg you last, I really know I was wrong this time. Last time you hurt Xiru's eyes, I only asked the old lady to punish you in a moment of excitement. From now on in this handsome mansion , as long as you appear, I will take Xiru and stay away. You should take pity on me, and you love Wen Yao so much, for his sake, don't worry about the past, okay?"

After kicking Yang Shi mercilessly, Xiao Jinxuan pulled back the corner of her skirt that was caught.

Looking at the embarrassed appearance of the other party lying on the ground, she said coldly:
"It's because I don't want Wenyao to experience the pain of losing his mother when he was young. Otherwise, let alone Sun Xiru, I won't let you go. You can stay in your room from now on and chant scriptures and worship Buddha. It will make people completely locked up, so you can repent and atone for what happened 14 years ago. Someone dragged her away and locked her in the yard immediately. I don’t want to see this person again in this life.”
