But She’s So Charming - Chapter 63
I have to say that Lin Xiu was very jealous of her aunt. Without him, she would never forget what kind of life she had with her little mother before she saved Lin Fu.
Jiang Xi is a lady of everyone, and she can’t do anything harsh on her concubine. Charcoal fire, eating, and the monthly rate have never been less than Du Xiaoniang and Lin Xiu. But because of this, Du Xiaoniang just wanted to find the lord to cry and complain.
She Xiaoniang Du desperately wants to enter the Lin Mansion, is it because of this day of not having enough food and starving?
Naturally not.
Lin Xiu had also been dissatisfied. She thought countless times, why she is also the daughter of her father, the second young lady of the Lin Mansion, but like a vagrant outside, she can only live a life of waiting for the mistress’s charity?
Du Xiaoniang and her, both openly and secretly, actually resisted.
But with a mistress like Jiang Si, the leaves in Du Xiaoniang’s yard seem to be full of eyes. Even if they have all their abilities, they are ultimately useless, and as time goes by, people begin to confess their fate.
Later, Du Xiaoniang heard Jiang Si’s voice and was afraid, even if Jiang Si’s tone was very kind.
After so many years, Lin Xiu finally turned Jiang Si’s black hair into white hair, and finally waited until her Ru’er had the first day, but how could it…like to have returned to the original place again?
King Ying gave Jiang Si a seat.
Jiang Si squinted at Lin Xiu and said, “Since you are pregnant, then you can tell me, how did you get pregnant?”
As soon as these words came out, Cheng Yanzhi’s body stiffened, and he subconsciously shook Lin Fu’s hand, but Lin Fu relentlessly avoided him.
Lin Xiu’s imposing manner was greatly reduced by Jiang Si’s condescending tone. She took two long breaths before she recovered her composure.
“Shouldn’t my mother ask Grandpa Guo first, why didn’t he deny it?” Lin Xiu asked.
Yes, just after Lin Xiu said that paragraph, Cheng Guogong did not deny or argue for the first time. Instead, he was ready to kill her directly. This action did have a hint of murder.
But this is no wonder Cheng Yanzhi, after all, before Lin Xiu went to this Hongmen banquet, she had already calculated everyone. Except for Jiang Si’s arrival, which she hadn’t expected, everyone else’s actions were what she expected.
Especially Cheng Yanzhi, he loves his Lin Fu so much, it is inevitable to kill his thoughts.
Mrs. Lin brushed a green thread stuck to the tatter, and smiled at her: “You are a widow. At the beginning of the year, you took the wife release letter from the settlement. Although sometimes you are eligible to enter and leave the government, after all The mansion was established outside. You said you belonged to the grandpa in your stomach, and I also said that you belonged to the king of the capital in this stomach.”
A word of widow, a word of Wang’s family, directly forced Di Lin Xiu back a step.
Although the King’s House in Jingcheng is a real merchant, the amount of gold and silver in the house is quite high. Many wine shops in the capital are spreading that the Wang’s cottages are all made of gold.
Of course, people like Mr. Wang, who relied on ships to become rich once in business, but have no ink in their stomachs, naturally love vulgarity over elegance.
For example, Lin Xiu, the little widow, has been seen by him, and the little widow of the Liang family makes people happy when she listens.
A few years ago, the prince of the Wang family had taken a betrothal gift for all ages to Anjia, and said that he would marry Lin Xiu as the continuation of the Wang family. Mrs. Wang’an drafted a wife release letter, and the price was easy to say.
The so-called aristocratic aristocracy, the more upright and desolate, the more disgusted with copper, this is true.
This happened angrily the old lady scolded Lin Xiu in front of everyone: Hiring bees and butterflies, shameless.
Because of this, Lin Xiu was ridiculed and ridiculed by others. Even the ladies in the other rooms of the Anjia ridiculed her behind her back, ridiculing her that she was so unwilling to be so lonely that she was going to hook up an old man who stepped into the coffin with half his foot!
Lin Xiu finally looked forward to the time to suppress this rumors, but did not want to be provoked by her aunt in a few words today.
These words and sentences are like a blow to Lin Xiu! Her calm and composed face suddenly seemed to be chapped.
Lin Xiu tilted her head and looked to the side blankly. The case officer’s pen didn’t stop, presumably he had also written the passage just now.
But today, it’s definitely not the time to be sad because of that old thing. If you don’t kill the child’s grandfather, I’m afraid that one crime after another will fall on her.
Lin Xiu clenched his fist, burst into tears, and then said in a very sad tone: “These years, the eldest sister has treated me very well. I didn’t dare to crave more, but that day my concubine was drunk and dizzy. It’s terrible, I only remember that Grandpa Guo kept calling the word Qingqing in his concubine’s ear… The rest, I can’t remember…” After that, she looked at Lin Fu and said: “Elder sister, although I do I have done so many wrong things, but for the sake of your health, I have indeed promised the grandpa not to mention it again. If it weren’t…if it didn’t happen to have a body, this matter…I will definitely bring it into the soil. of.”
Lin Fu looked at Lin Xiu’s hand holding her stomach and smiled. She suddenly felt that she had smeared the position of Mrs. Cheng Fu. She actually raised an unfamiliar wolf in this yard.
It’s a pity not to be an actor with such a pretentious attitude.
Seeing Lin Fu’s face changed, Cheng Yanzhi immediately whispered from the side: “Fu’er, you know how I look drunk, how could I be with her…” Cheng Yanzhi hadn’t finished speaking, but Lin Fu’s sharp gaze Shut up.
Fortunately, at this moment, Lin Fu and Cheng Yanzhi have been married for more than ten years and had three children. It is unlikely that Lin Xiu was sentenced to death in his heart because of Lin Xiu’s words.
But on the contrary, if this happened ten years ago, with Lin Fu’s temperament, it would definitely end with peace.
Lin Fu looked at the case officer on the side, suppressed the nausea that was overwhelming in his heart, stepped forward and said to Lin Xiu: “Lin Xiu, this matter is not to be faked after all. Even if you have a hard mouth now, you can wait for you. After giving birth to a child, can you still be hard-headed?” This is true. You can still use some tricks to recognize your relatives with blood, but the child’s facial features cannot be changed.
It’s easy to see if it’s the Cheng family’s species.
Lin Xiu smiled disapprovingly: “Sister, don’t worry. If I don’t know who the child in this belly is, then I won’t come.” After she finished speaking, she continued to mutter, “Since I am pregnant. I haven’t had any reaction since, I guess, she is 80% of her sisters, and they all say that the girl is like a father, so she must look very similar to the grandfather of the country.”
What this is saying is that it can be as disgusting as it is.
Just when Cheng Yanzhi’s face was completely dark, Mrs. Lin suddenly laughed a few times.
“Lin Xiu, by saying that, you are sure that the man in your stomach has been planted?” Mrs. Lin interjected.
Lin Xiu clutched the gradually bulging belly, nodded and said, “Yes.”
Madam Lin showed a shrewd light in her eyes, and then asked the judge on the side: “Master, have you recorded everything she said just now?”
The case officer nodded, “Going back to the old lady, she’s not bad at all.”
At this moment, Mrs. Lin’s personal maid opened the door and said something, making the smile on Mrs. Lin’s face deeper and deeper.
Then, Mrs. Lin curled her lips to Lin Xiudao, “This is the end of the matter, and the old man will punish you for the crime of slandering others today.”
“Bring people up to me!”
The next moment, I saw a few old women approaching with a man in sluggish attire.
The little servant was dressed in a gray-blue coat and tied his hair with bamboo hairpins, but because of the unusually large number of beards on his cheeks, his appearance was a bit unclear.
When everyone saw it, they all looked at each other, and they didn’t understand what Old Lady Lin had to do to bring such a person in.
Only Lin Xiu’s complexion was pale.
“This…Who is it…” Mrs. Cheng said.
After all, the two mothers tore off the beard on the man’s face in one breath.
While waiting for the man to show his true face, everyone in the room couldn’t help taking a breath of cold.
This man!
A thin version of Cheng Yanzhi.
The men of this generation in the Cheng family look very good-looking, all of them are the most romantic and suave, especially those of Cheng Yan, the pair of peach-eyed eyes, but they caused a lot of romantic debts when they were young, but this man’s Peach Blossom Eye is exactly the same as Cheng Yanzhi’s.
In an instant, everyone’s eyes all fell on this person.
I saw this little servant standing with his hands in his hands, standing firmly in the middle of the main hall…
The waitress on the side couldn’t help sighing in her heart, this standing posture…how could it be the same as the way the grandpa was at home on weekdays? !
Although the expression on this young man’s face is very stiff, if you only look at his eyes and the jaw that is not too wide, I am afraid that Brother Yun will call him “Uncle” when he is here.
“Lin Xiu, Lin Xiu, with your mind, being bored in this back house simply buried you! Even the old man had never thought about it, you dare to put this young man upright in your Yiyuan. Pao Ding!” This little boy was originally a lowly male prostitute on Yongyang Street. Who could have imagined that Lin Xiu would have ransomed him with the money and money given by Anjia.
It stands to reason that such a concealed and dirty thing should have been unknown to others, but it was also a coincidence that after Jiang Si received the letter from Cheng Yu, she sent someone to check Lin Xiu’s Yiyuan.
But no matter how you check it, you can’t find any strangeness.
Just when Jiang Si was about to let the spies to evacuate, the gods seemed to have touched the road with his own fingers, making things take a turn for the worse.
Two days ago, Mother Xue, who was next to Jiang Si, happened to go to the drugstore to grab the medicine. She went out and turned right. She saw someone. She thought she had met her uncle. Just when she was about to come forward to greet her, she realized that she had confessed to the wrong person. The ghost followed him all the way.
Finally stopped to discover that this person had entered Lin Xiu’s Yiyuan!
Now that the source has been found, the rest is naturally easy to handle.
But let’s not say that Lin Xiu treats people well and doesn’t pay the eldest lady’s money. Jiang Si spent a lot of money to buy the female envoy in Yiyuan.
Until today, Jiang Si has clarified the ins and outs. Co-authoring this Lin Xiu coveted Cheng Guogong, it was not a matter of a day or two, and even… even a substitute was found.
After a while, Jiang Si greeted people and brought up a box.
After opening the box, you can see that it is full of clothes.
Lin Fu stepped forward and took out one by one.
Turning over, Lin Fu suddenly picked up a white straight embellishment and trembled. After seeing it clearly, she threw it directly on the ground, because she found that every piece of clothing in it was worn by Cheng Yanzhi. Style.
Most of Cheng Yanzhi’s clothes are made by Lin Fu himself, but because Lin Fu’s embroidery skills are not as good as Lin embroidery, he would often turn to Lin embroidery when he encounters difficult styles such as “Ban Bian Bo Mo”.
But how did Lin Fu know that Lin Xiu would embroider the same pattern again after returning home… Lin Fu suddenly recalled all the past, all of which really made her feel sick.
Lin Fu recognizes this clothes, and Mrs. Cheng naturally recognizes it.
Old Mrs. Cheng’s face changed drastically, she angrily dropped the cup on the side to the ground, and said angrily: “Lin Xiu, you are so bold!”
The old lady Cheng used a lot of strength, and the water stains from the broken cup directly splashed on this little boy.
Where did this little boy have seen such a battle? He was so scared that he had lost the posture just now… He suddenly knelt down and said tremblingly to Lin Xiu: “Madam, madam.”
If it is said that he and the Lord of the Country still have a seven-point appearance, at this moment, there is only three points left.
To be honest, seeing this scene, to say that the worst expression on this face is not Lin Xiu sitting on the ground with hollow eyes, but Cheng Yanzhi standing beside Lin Fu! How long has he been a proud person! What is the difference between Lin Xiu’s actions and humiliating him?
Mars had already appeared in Cheng Yanzhi’s eyes. If the court commander was not here, I’m afraid he would have rushed to chop Lin Xiu and this young man together.
The young man’s body was shaking like chaff, seeing Lin Xiu ignore him, the next moment he crawled to the case officer in official uniform.
“Grant, master, the slave has something to report.”
The case officer dealt with the file, and couldn’t help rubbing his temples in an embarrassment. They thought this was a case of child trafficking, but they didn’t expect that there could be so many things behind one incident!
The investigator sighed, and then slowly said, “Just say it.” After speaking, he started writing again.
Lin Xiuyan watched the little boy who was eager to get rid of his relationship with him and pour out all the things that should and shouldn’t be said…
The little boy cried out with a horrible cry, saying that he wears these clothes, all Lin Xiu asked, he is a brothel boy, can only serve the master, and he can’t resist…
Lin Xiu’s heart was cut like a knife, and the tears in his eyes couldn’t stop hitting the ground.
It’s over, it’s all over.
She looked at Cheng Yanzhi’s disgusting gaze, and couldn’t stand it anymore, suddenly picked up a broken cup from the ground, and she was about to stroke her neck.
Cheng Yu quickly pressed her in place.
Cheng Yu’s strength was not small, and everyone in the room seemed to hear the sound of bone dislocation.
Lin Xiu didn’t care about the pain. She threw away Cheng Yu with all her strength. She suddenly stepped forward a few steps, crawling at Cheng Yanzhi’s feet, and said very humblely: “Duke Guo, our child has nothing to do with him. She is your kind. .”
Cheng Yan kicked her away and asked coldly: “Fuer treats you so kindly to you, how can your conscience be cleansed by the dog?”
After a while, Lin Xiu smiled palely and said: “Favour? If I hadn’t sent my sister-in-law to Suzhou, she could not bear the pain of losing her son and used Ru’er as a substitute! Will Lin Fu treat me kindly! How long will she take me and Ru’er for a day or two? Or maybe a month? When the compassion of her eldest lady is gone, and the world will remember her noble character, she will kick it. Kick me back to Anjia! Let that old godly woman treat me harshly all day long! Who of you has lived my life like this!”
The more Lin Xiu said, the crazier he became. Apart from her roar and the slur of the case officer reading through the files, there was no other sound in the room.
Perhaps it was the undisguised disgust in Cheng Yanzhi’s eyes that hurt Lin Xiu’s heart. She suddenly covered her face with her hands, lowered her voice, and said, “The world is like this, so why am I not wronged?”
Lin Xiu’s monologue not only made Cheng Yanzhi unmoved, but also made him think this person was simply ridiculous.
Dare to mention wrong?
In this case, he let her know what is wrong.
Cheng Yanzhi walked to the door and gave another word to the outside. After a while, the female envoy Chun Yao beside Lin Fu walked in with the doctor with a box.
Chunyao walked to the side of King Ying, bowed her head and talked about the concealment of the evidence. King Ying nodded, and asked Cheng Yu to take Yang Tianwang and the official who were kneeling on the ground temporarily to the narrow room next door for trial.
As soon as these people left, Dr. Sun took out the unused stack of menstruation in the box.
Chun Yao took out the scissors, uncovered all the threads on both sides of the menstrual belt, and then poured out the contents with a copper plate.
“The slave servant begs Dr. Sun to check what the drugs are in it.” Chun Yao said.
Lin Xiu raised her head suddenly.
Chun Yao said again: “His Royal Highness, the old lady was pregnant a while ago, but because she has been seeing red, she wore this confinement belt for a while, but she did not expect to wear it for a few days, and the lady had a miscarriage… this On the two days, the slave and maid accidentally discovered that the contents of this confinement belt seemed to be different from each other.”
Before Chun Yao finished speaking, Lin Xiu suddenly stood up and said, “Don’t squirt people! This is the menstrual band I made for my eldest sister. It only contains moxa and astragalus!” Lin Xiu’s chest twitched, suddenly There was something wrong.
Doctor Sun took the plate, and then squeezed a part of it with his thumb and index finger. He first took a closer look, and then sniffed it. Then he said: “There are seventy percent of them are Ai Ye, but the remaining thirty percent is not what this lady said. Of the astragalus, the remaining 30% are comfrey, safflower, and musk.”
Hearing this, Lin Xiu shook his head and said, “Impossible…Impossible.” Lin Xiu is not foolish, so how could she act in such an obvious place that can leave evidence!
Lin Fu can’t keep that child, it’s because of her own loss, what does it have to do with her!
At this time, King Ying opened his mouth and said: “This king remembers that these safflower and musk pregnant women should not be used.”
“His Royal Highness said that it is not only that the safflower and the musk are not usable, but the comfrey in it is also a blood-stimulating thing. If these herbs are hidden in the menstrual belt, let alone small births, even later It’s also very difficult to get pregnant.” Dr. Sun said.
At this moment, Lin Xiu was stupid and understood what was going on.
This is blatantly framed!
Lin Xiu raised his eyelids and stared at Cheng Yanzhi’s unfeeling eyes. He choked up and said, “Duke Guo, why are you treating me like this? Back then, Concubine Cheng was in my hands. I thought she was yours. The flesh and blood, just let her go… But why did you refuse to give me a life?” Back then, she could have killed her sister-in-law with a single knife, but she looked at the silhouette of the baby in her hand that was similar to him. Still can’t bear it.
She gave birth to a compassionate heart that she shouldn’t have, and changed the “women” on the birthday card to “women”. She only said one request to the traffickers. She wanted the child and never returned to Beijing.
She thought that this matter would never be known, but today she realized that the paper package can’t keep the fire, it turned out to be true.
“Causal reincarnation, today is your retribution.” After saying this, Cheng Yanzhi sneered, and then continued: “You are not qualified to complain. Concubine was less than two years old.” She was wronged.
Lin Xiu’s shoulders trembled faintly.
It turns out that no one in this big family is a fool. Everyone has the ability to survive. Look, at this moment, she is wronged, and all of them don’t change their faces.
The case officer buried his head in the book, and while browsing the regulations, he compiled what he had just heard into a file. It took about half an hour before they handed the file to King Ying.
Although King Ying confessed that he wanted a real sentence and no favoritism, the case officer and the principal were not stupid. In today’s battle, even if the woman is really innocent, they dare not write it as innocent.
Moreover, these officials have always understood winks, and they also understand that this family must have other purposes if they want to conduct a public trial.
In the end, because Lin Xiu was pregnant, he was exempted from moss punishment.
Therefore, Lin Xiu’s final judgment was: to seize the title of Mrs. Fifth-Rank, sentenced to popular, exiled for 3,000 miles and 20 years, and never returned to Beijing, but Yang Tianwang was directly convicted of beheading because of his involvement in conspiracy in Ryukyu. Do not leave the whole body.
Lin Xiu laughed more and more madly. Although her charge does not constitute a death sentence, how is it different from the death sentence for twenty years?
King Ying squeezed the verdict in his hand and whispered to the investigator: “After transferring her to the Criminal Department, remember to take good care of her mouth. All the words mentioned about Cheng Hao will be erased.”
King Ying spoke, and the case officer should naturally be.
After the case was closed, news soon passed back to Jiaoyuetang.
Anruer missed the floor in shock.
Lin Xiu has been selfish all her life. Even Lin Fu has been good to her for so many years and has fed the dog all the way, but she has never said anything to Anru’er.
Lin Xiu was raised by Du Xiaoniang, so Du Xiaoniang’s disposition was naturally taught to Lin Xiu. Du Xiaoniang’s status is low, but her heart is extremely high. The so-called heart is higher than the sky and life is thinner than paper. .
Lin Xiu knew very well that women’s jealousy and resentment would often ruin a person, so he had never said anything to Anru’er.
She hoped that her Ru’er could resemble Lin Fu.
Be a good lady of everybody, marry as the adopted daughter of the Cheng family, be a big lady, and forever break away from the concubine.
Ke Ren’s character is actually very magical, and I don’t know when, the strength in Anru’er’s bloodline is like being connected with Lin Xiurong.
It is precisely because of this that Lin Xiu was so disappointed when he learned that Anru’er had moved his mind to get the piece of jade that could marry King Ying.
Disappointed, they seem to never escape that fate…
Anruer cried for a long time in Moonlight Hall, and within a few hours, her thoughts had turned thousands of times.
Surprise, disappointment, resentment, embarrassment and so on all came to her. Anru’er even thought about why her mother didn’t kill Tang Wu directly back then? If she didn’t leave her life, then looking forward, there is nothing wrong with it.
Who would have thought that her mother’s mercy once ruined everything about her completely.
Anru’er grew up next to Lin Fu. Lin Fu believes in Buddhism. Apart from copying Buddhist scriptures all day long, the most common saying is the reincarnation of cause and effect.
This made her wonder, was it because she had robbed Tang Wu of everything, so Tang Wu was about to take away everything she had? But she was struggling with her fate for the position of Princess Ying.
Mother Anjuerla landed and said, “Mother, what should I do? Am I going to make room for the Xitongyuan guy soon?”
“The princess is not anxious. The princess and his highness were ordered by the emperor to get married, and the wife’s crime does not involve affiliation. Even if the princess blames the princess for this, it is fair to say that the position of princess Ying will not easily change Do it.” Mother Lu sighed again: “But the matter is over. Regarding the wife, the princess should tell her Royal Highness in advance.”
According to Tang Wu’s current status, Anru’er could no longer fight with her. Mother Lu had analyzed her a long time ago, and when Tang Wu’s child landed safely, the Cheng family would definitely recognize her.
At that time, whether it was the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, or the favor of her highness, Anru’er was bound to be overwhelmed.
Anruer bit her lip tremblingly, and said yes.
Sleepless all night.
As soon as King Ying returned to the mansion, he saw Anru’er kneeling at the entrance of Sui’antang.
Mottled tears hung on her face, and her lips had lost the slightest blood.
The moment King Ying stopped, Anru’er wept silently again.
It is said that a woman’s tears have always been the best weapon against a man. It is hard to resist with softness, but the premise is that this man must have you in his heart, otherwise the cry of crying will not only be unpleasant, but also make it even more depressing. People are irritable.
Anjou knows that men are unfeeling, and that royal men are even more unfeeling, so she has made enough psychological preparations today.
She was raised in Cheng’s family when she was young, and once played polo and fell into tears. She burst into tears because of pain. At that time, many young men on the court cast distressed glances at her.
Only King Ying beside Brother Yu didn’t even look at her when he passed by her, and he was very indifferent.
When she was young, looking at Wang Ying’s handsome and upright figure, she only felt that she saw an extremely dazzling light. She had paid too much for this to Daoguang… She forbeared and planned, but what about the end?
Anru’er looked at King Ying in a daze, and she suddenly felt that his attitude towards herself seemed to have never changed.
Even the disgust is gone.
General Cao opened Sui’antang’s door, and bowed and moved a chair for Anru’er.
King Ying sat in the upper position, and the envoy on the side immediately offered King Ying tea.
Anruer was forced by King Ying’s silence so that many words were stuck in her throat. After a long time, she said: “Your Majesty, I really don’t know what the mother did.” After finishing speaking, Anruer I couldn’t hold back again, and made a weeping sound again.
Seeing his unspoken words, Anju’er knelt on the ground immediately and said: “Although the mother has committed a big mistake, the concubine is still willing to ask your Royal Highness. On the day of exile, he can send a little softness to the concubine in return for nurturing. The feeling of love.” In Anruer’s words, there are five points that are true and five points that are false. The true five points are due to the love of mother and daughter with Lin Xiu for many years, while the false five points Because Anru’er knew that King Ying was a person of filial piety, if he were to abandon himself only for his own selfish desires at this time, I am afraid it would make him even more contemptuous.
Wang Ying glanced at her faintly, frowned slightly, and said “Yeah”.
After some preparation, Anru’er fisted and said: “The fate of the concubine’s turbulent and wandering fate is really the fault of the mother and the concubine. The concubine feels embarrassed in her body and mind. The concubine came today in order to be willing to invite His Royal Highness. The younger sister was promoted as a flat wife.”
After speaking, Anru’er closed her eyes and bowed his head slightly to King Ying in the center of Sui’antang’s main hall.
King Ying lifted the lid of the tea, holding the tea cup, took a sip, and then said: “He Lishu, this king has already drawn it up.”
Anru’er raised her head suddenly, and she suddenly felt as if she was deaf.
She whispered: “This… how is this possible.”
“As long as you sign and leave the book, the king will compensate you. You can draw up a list, whether it is the imperial residence in the outskirts of Beijing or the Zhuangpu in Beijing.” Wang Wang said.
After hearing this, Anruer suddenly felt cold in her palms, and after a long time, she suddenly laughed.
How could this person be so cool?
He said it nicely, as if it was a big gift to her, but she knew very well in her heart, and it was just the first step for the **** to ascend to the position of princess.
But she relied on peace?
She is not only the concubine he personally married, but also the jade pendant given by the first emperor!
What is the use of the money if she wants those houses?
Reconciliation with His Royal Highness King Ying, who else in the capital would dare to marry her!
