Chapter 206 Persecution (4)
Han Jianming relayed the meaning of the Chen family to Yuxi, and said after finishing speaking: "Yuxi, this is already the greatest sincerity of the Chen family. Besides, we are ignoring the resignation." Chen Jianeng offered to let Chen Ran go out , is already a big step back.
Yuxi has returned to normal at this time, and her negative emotions have been suppressed. When Han Jianming came, she was still holding a book in her hand. After listening to Han Jianming's words, he said, "Brother, this method only treats the symptoms but not the root cause." With the vicious character of Concubine Song, even if she followed Chen Ran outside, she would not let her go. Not to mention, she also killed three of Concubine Song's subordinates.
Han Jianming said: "That can't be helped. Before you get married, you don't go out again, and you don't go out when you marry the Chen family. After three to five years, this matter will be over."
Yuxi smiled bitterly and said, "Aside from this, is there no other way?"
Han Jianming shook his head and said, "Yuxi, the marriage is for the good of Qin and Jin, not for the sake of enmity. The Chen family is so sincere, it would be too heartless if we withdraw the marriage."
Yuxi didn't expect Han Jianming to say that to her, and was stunned.
Han Jianming continued: "Yuxi, I know that you were frightened and scared. But the Chen family is also a victim of this matter. Have you ever thought that once you retire, Chen Ran will be the Lord. The son-in-law is not allowed to be an official , once Chen Ran is elected as the Lord, his life will be ruined. Yuxi, people can't live only for themselves, but also for others. Also, no one likes people who can only share wealth and not share adversity." If the Han family In this case, destroying a relationship is a moral loss. Without morality, who would dare to make friends with you in the future? It's hard to do it alone, a family can never be revitalized by itself without help.
Yuxi heard what Han Jianming meant, but she couldn't blame her elder brother, it was indeed because she didn't make it clear. At that moment, Yu Xi asked with a wry smile: "Brother, why do you think that Song Guifei's killing of me has nothing to do with the Chen family, why do you think the Chen family is also an innocent victim?"
Although Han Jianming felt sorry for Yuxi, he couldn't say anything against his will. The Chen family was indeed innocent in this matter. And it is completely justified for the Chen family not to withdraw their marriage.
A mocking smile crossed Yuxi's face: "Brother, do you really think that the Chen family is ignorant of Concubine Song's murder of me? Tai Ninghou is the emperor's confidant, and he often walks in the palace. Such a person would not know that Concubine Song is the kind of character who will not give up until she achieves her goal? Would she not know that the Chen family refuses to marry, and that Concubine Song can't help but the Chen family will turn around and deal with me?" Seeing that Han Jianming didn't say a word, Yu Xi continued: "Brother, it's not that the members of the Chen family don't know about it, but in the eyes of the Chen family, my life and death are insignificant. I was fine and alive, and they asked Chen Ran to marry me back; if something happened, I died. They asked Chen Ran to decline the Lord Shang in the name of keeping my filial piety."
Han Jianming gave a wry smile, Yuxi's analysis was reasonable. For the Chen family, as long as they don't withdraw their marriage, it really doesn't make any difference to them whether Yuxi lives or dies. It's just that even if it is clear, this marriage cannot be withdrawn. Outsiders don't know the inside story, and if they retire, everyone will only think that they are people who can only share wealth but not adversity and have no friendship: "Yuxi, I have seen that you and Chen Ran get along very well in the past two years." The rest Han Jianming didn't ask that sentence, why Yuxi could say the word "retirement" so easily, without thinking about the relationship with Chen Ran at all.
Yuxi's expression didn't fluctuate at all, and said: "Chen Ran thinks that I am suitable to be his wife, and I also think that he is a very good marriage partner, that's all. My death doesn't have much impact on him , and he will even win a good reputation for being filial for me. After the incident, he will still be an elegant Tanhualang, and there will be no delay in being an official and getting married. But I am worthless in death, and even be killed by others in the future. When I mention it, I will only say blessings." What she said was a true portrayal of Chen Ran's fiancée in her previous life. Chen Ran not only used the girl's death to avoid Princess Qinxin,
He also earned a good reputation for being kind and righteous. After the crisis passed, Chen Ran was still that young, talented young man with unlimited career prospects, and married a famous lady as usual. And even if the dead girl was mentioned, she would only say the other party's blessing. And she didn't want to repeat the girl's mistakes and become Chen Ran's stepping stone.
Han Jianming smiled wryly: "Yuxi, sometimes I really don't know whether it is good or bad for you to read so many books for you?" It's too transparent, but it's not a good thing.
Yuxi can ignore the gossip outside, but she can't make Han Jianming feel that she is heartless. Because Han Jianming is her biggest backer: "Brother, I know it is not so easy to divorce. I will stay in the yard during this period and will not go anywhere. I just hope that I can spend this time in peace." Go!" According to Sister Quan's words, this hope is very slim.
Seeing this, Han Jianming also breathed a sigh of relief, and asked another question: "Does Fourth Sister feel dangerous going to the palace this time?" Otherwise, why did she just take Zijin with her.
Yuxi didn't hide it from Han Jianming, nodded and said: "I was uneasy two days ago, and I always felt that something bad happened. Just in case, I took Viola with me when I went to King Jing's Mansion."
Han Jianming said: "I didn't expect the fourth sister to be able to predict good and bad." He said that there was no such a coincidence, and it was really as he expected, and he didn't expect that Yu Xi really had the ability to predict good and bad.
Yuxi laughed and said: "This is nothing but a kind of intuition." It was just her intuition. If she really foresaw good and bad luck, she would not go to the palace that day. It's just that others won't take this intuition seriously, but she will take it seriously.
Han Jianming left after finishing speaking. Before leaving, he said, "Yuxi, don't worry, you will be fine at home."
Yuxi said dryly: "I hope so!"
Not long after Han Jianming left, Mammy Quan came in. Seeing that Yuxi's face no longer had the decadent look of yesterday, Sister Quan's eyes flashed with relief, so it's not a bad thing to encounter more setbacks when she was young.
Yuxi saw Quan Nanny and said: "Mommy, Concubine Song will not let it go. You must not blatantly commit murder in the palace. I am worried that she will use people around me to do it." Thanks to all the mothers. The things she said about the palace that day naturally also pointed out the domineering and domineering character of Concubine Song.
Can Madam Quan not know about Concubine Song's disposition, as far as Concubine Song's character is concerned, she will use all methods of coercion and inducement to achieve her goal. She didn't point it out because she hoped that Yuxi would think of these things herself: "Zisu and Zijin don't have to worry about it. , Caidie, Xuntao, and Aunt Guo, I will remind them." Zisu and Zijin's family members cannot be found in a short time, and the other three have family members in Beijing, and having family members is a weakness. What people in the palace are best at is to grasp the fatal weakness of others.
Yuxi also has this worry: "Tell Aunt Guo and Caidie the truth, and let them tell the family members to be more cautious these days." After saying this, Yuxi looked at Quan Nuo and said, "Mama, can you Don't forget your family."
Sister Quan smiled and said, "I have already asked my nephew and the others to take their children to Red Date Village." She took the letter out yesterday and asked her nephew and grandnephew to go to Red Date Village. Red Zaozhuang is Yuxi's territory, and it is a rural place, so it is not easy to catch them.
Yuxi also reminded Mammy Quan, nodded after hearing this, and said, "That's good. I just hope they won't be implicated."
Five days in a row passed peacefully. And for the past five days, Yuxi has been huddled in the courtyard, not even going to the main courtyard these days.
After Yuxi finished eating a small bowl of fish soup, she said to Nanny Quan, "Madam Quan, it's been five days and everything has been calm. In seven days, we're going to get married. You said it's Concubine Song who doesn't plan to do anything. Or the calm before the storm?" Deep down in her heart, Yuxi also hoped that Concubine Song would stop. After all, who knows if he will be so lucky to escape next time.
Sister Quan said calmly, "Before the girl gets married, she will definitely do something." It was just the calm before the storm.
Yuxi looked at Sister Quan, and asked a question that had been in her heart for a long time: "Does Sister Quan have any enmity with Concubine Song?" From Sister Quan's words, it is not difficult to hear her dislike for Concubine Song. And she was so sure that Concubine Song would do something, Yuxi always felt that there was a special reason.
After a moment of silence, Quan Nuan said: "When I first entered the palace, I didn't understand anything. I made several mistakes when I was on duty, and I almost died once. It was my aunt in charge who helped me. And the aunt in charge just because I was in the palace She accidentally soiled Mrs. Song's clothes in the back garden, so she ordered her to kill her with a cane."
Yuxi didn't ask why the aunt in charge soiled Concubine Song's clothes, she only knew that Concubine Song would be killed even if she accidentally soiled her clothes, she, the person who blocked the way of Concubine Song's precious daughter, If it will be let go unless the sun comes out in the west. Since then, the only trace of luck left in Yuxi's heart has disappeared.
Madam Quan's words came true soon. At noon the next day, Aunt Guo knelt on the ground and cried bitterly: "Girl, please save my son?" He asked her to put the medicine in Yuxi's food. If she does not do so, her son will be killed. With Mammy Quan's previous warning, Aunt Guo dared to put medicine in Yuxi's food. Once she puts medicine in the girl's meal, the girl is gone, and her son will not survive even if he is rescued. In addition, she also has to catch up with her daughter-in-law, grandson, and two daughters and a family. The price was too heavy and she didn't dare to take the risk, so she had to confess to Yuxi, hoping that Yuxi could help her.
After listening to Aunt Guo's cry, Yuxi was silent for a while. Then Aunt Guo was asked to go down first, and she asked Grandma Quan: "Mommy, is there a kind of medicinal diet that makes people look poisoned after eating?"
Sister Quan said without thinking, "No."
Yuxi lowered her head and thought for a while, then said: "Mother Quan, Concubine Song just wants me to make way for Princess Qinxin. Whether I live or die is not important to Concubine Song, right?"
Sister Quan nodded, fortunately Yuxi didn't ask her to prepare poisonous medicine, otherwise she would be stupid. For the Song family, as long as Yuxi doesn't block Princess Qinxin's way, the Song family doesn't care whether she lives or dies. (to be continued)
