Let Me Pursue You - Chapter 47
Compared with the so-called “Prince and Concubine” in her dream, this voice is a little immature, but it is undoubtedly the same person.
According to the dream, the general situation is that Jiang Bican used tricks to climb into Zheng Zhuo’s bed, and Zheng Zhuo was falsely accused of being married to her.
This kind of insidious trick is actually not difficult to imagine-the next medicine will make the man unconscious or drunk, and after a night, the woman will do whatever she wants. What’s more, Jiang Bican was so cruel to herself, if Zheng Zhuo didn’t touch her, she would find someone else to touch her, and really conceived a child.
The Jiang family was also considered a prominent family in Chang’an, Jiang Birou was born in an ordinary situation, but Jiang Bican’s father was a third-rank Dali Temple official, so the second wife was not easy to offend. If something like that happened, I’m afraid Zheng Zhuo really couldn’t sit idly by, and Yuan Cixian would definitely not be able to marry him again.
It turned out that the marriage contract between the two families broke down like this.
Yuan Cixian felt a little unbelievable. A person like Zheng Zhuo who has been in the ups and downs of the officialdom for many years and has seen too much darkness in the royal family and intrigues will be planted by a girl who seems to be just a little clever. Presumably, there should be twists and turns behind this that she doesn’t know for the time being.
Thinking of this, she glanced at her opponent’s sister-in-law. Such a handwriting, Jiang Birou, as a child of the Jiang family who has a close relationship with the Yuan family, wouldn’t be ignorant of it? If she knew, what role did she play in it?
Yuan Cixian kept turning her head, but her face froze for a moment before covering it up, and said with a smile: “I like the sweet-mouthed one the most. Sister-in-law is also pretty, but is she married?”
Jiang Bican rushed to answer: “No! Sister Cixian is not married yet, how can I be ahead of you.”
Oh, isn’t it ahead of her? It was her fiancé who robbed her.
Although Yuan Cixian never had a special friendship with Zheng Zhuo, in the dream, he was her serious fiancé after all. Someone used such despicable means to design her marriage, and even Yuan’s family, of course she couldn’t feel at ease.
But she still smiled and said: “Then let me hurry up, and you will be ranked first.”
Jiang Bican responded sweetly.
Jiang Birou also smiled.
Yuan Cixian saw her smile back, but she looked a little out of spirits, and said: “It’s freezing cold, sister-in-law is pregnant, so don’t stand in the wind and talk. Let brother know, it’s my fault that I didn’t Seeing.”
The news that Jiang Birou was pregnant was only learned by Yuan Cixian after returning to Beijing. When she first heard about this happy event, she was very happy for her elder brother. After all, with my sister-in-law’s weak constitution of coughing and asthma for many years, it is really not easy to conceive a child, otherwise it would not have been married for nearly two years.
She reckoned that Jiang Bican came to visit the eldest sister today because of this reason.
Jiang Bican stuck out her tongue when she heard the words, and said embarrassingly, “I don’t blame Sister Cixian, it’s because I’m too blind to see, so I’ll help Sister back.” After speaking, he asked, “Sister Cixian also came into the house together. ?”
Yuan Cixian smiled: “I’m going to take a bath first, and I’ll come back later. Sister-in-law, ask your servants to prepare some snacks for me, I’m hungry.”
“Understood.” Jiang Birou cast an annoyed look at her, and said to Jiang Bican, “Cixian is just like you, always loves to run out and make trouble…”
Yuan Cixian turned around and went back to her own yard, waited for no one around, and ordered Shicui behind her in a low voice: “Send away the servants in the backyard.”
A quarter of an hour later, Yuan Cixian pretended to take a bath, went around the backyard and sneaked under the back window of Jiang Birou’s main house. She squatted on the wall and put her ears close to the crack of the window.
This is her Yuan Mansion, it is not difficult for her to listen to a corner.
Jiang Birou’s voice was very low, but Yuan Cixian had a keen ear and could make out the general idea.
She heard her cry a little bit: “Chan’er, what should I do, sister? The doctor checked my pulse a few days ago and said that I can’t give birth to a child at all in this body, even if I am lucky enough to conceive now, I will definitely not be able to keep it. Recently Tianhan, my cough and shortness of breath have been attacking from time to time, I’m afraid it won’t work if I don’t take the medicine, but once I take the medicine, the baby in my womb will definitely be gone. Sister is really desperate… The Yuan family only has one son, Shichen, so it is impossible to promise He has no heirs, and it will only be a matter of time before this concubine enters the door…”
Jiang Bican pondered for a moment and said: “Sister, what uncle and my father mean is that after all, life is the most important thing, and cough and asthma must be cured. As for the concubine’s room, in the final analysis, it is for the Yuan family to leave behind. My heart is also on you, so what are you afraid of?”
“I’m afraid that Shichen’s heart is not with me. In the past two years, I have not noticed that Shichen married me, maybe because of my childhood accident, he wanted to atone for Cixian…”
Yuan Cixian couldn’t help but choke in her throat.
That accident was something that had suppressed her mind for many years.
At that time, she was still in Chang’an, and she and Jiang Birou were very good playmates, they often took her to run around the mountains and plains, and sometimes called her elder brother to go with her.
In the winter when she was seven years old, she and Jiang Birou traveled in the wild, and they broke up because of some quarrels. She turned her head and walked out of the forest. Unexpectedly, she encountered an unexpected snowstorm on the way home, and was almost trapped in the forest. She finally took a shortcut to escape.
When she was groping in the forest, she wanted to look back for Jiang Birou, but was stopped by the maid beside her. After leaving the forest, she was so cold that she lost all feeling in her legs. The guards waiting outside the forest were sent out.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Birou and her maid walked carelessly into the depths of the forest in the wind and snow, and were rescued by the guards of the Yuan family after more than half an hour.
On that day, Yuan Cixian saw some novel flowers and plants in a miscellaneous journal that could only be found in the cold winter, so she took Jiang Birou to the wild forest to pick them. It was she who found the guards bothersome, so she made everyone wait outside the forest. As for the quarrel, although a slap could not be slapped, she was the one who walked away in anger.
After all, it was all her fault, and she felt so guilty that she ran to Jiang’s house every day, wishing she could suffer for Jiang Birou.
But the Jiang family didn’t welcome her, and they had a deadlock with the Yuan family. It was later that the Yuan family became king and moved to Yaozhou, and the relationship between the two families gradually eased.
Yuan Cixian hadn’t set foot in Jiang’s house for many years, until when she was fourteen years old, she heard that elder brother and Jiang Birou had made a marriage contract.
Childhood accidents have become a thing of the past, and the children of Jiang Yuan’s family can be regarded as childhood sweethearts. If the two really want to get married, Yuan Cixian will certainly be happy. But she was afraid that elder brother was for her.
When she went to Beijing at the end of that year, she asked Yuan Yu about this matter, but he gave her a chestnut.
He said to her: “What are you thinking about? Your future sister-in-law is the prettiest thing in the world other than our aunt. You mustn’t spoil my brother’s good deed!”
At that time, she stayed away from Chang’an all the year round, and she didn’t know about brother’s recent situation, and because she hadn’t reached the point of time, she was quite ignorant about the relationship between men and women. During the New Year’s Festival, she saw that brother and Jiang Birou were really close, so she dispelled her doubts…
Yuan Cixian leaned against the wall, secretly clenched her cuffs, and continued to listen to the conversation of the two people in the room.
Jiang Bican’s voice sounded again: “Sister, Can’er has a plan. Since you said that brother-in-law married you because of guilt, let’s tie him up with guilt. After all, it has been a long time since childhood, if If something happens again, I won’t be afraid that my brother-in-law will change his mind.”
Yuan Cixian seemed to have guessed what Jiang Bican meant, and as expected, she continued: “Although this child is destined to be lost, it should be useful for him. As long as sister blames Yuan Cixian for the child’s disappearance, it will be fine. “
Jiang Birou didn’t speak for a long time, hesitated for a while and said, “You ask sister to think about it.”
“Sister, I don’t want your child to be caught by a wolf. If you are not ruthless, you will suffer in the future. I have thought of a way for you. If you frame Yuan Cixian for doing it on purpose, brother-in-law will definitely not believe it, so we will give it to you.” She made an unintentional mistake. I will have **** with her for a while, and in a few days, I will call a few good ladies in Beijing to come to Yuanfu to play together. At that time, whether it is throwing pots or Cuju, I will play by ear, and I will definitely call her ‘Missing’ you…”
After a long time, Jiang Birou finally agreed: “…Okay.”
Then, there was no sound in the room.
Yuan Cixian returned the same way, and couldn’t help but smiled angrily.
This Jiang Bican is a very “wonderful person”.
When she returned to the room, she invited Picking Branches to ask: “Is brother at home?”
Picking branches and answering: “Lang Jun has gone out and hasn’t come back yet.”
She nodded, and asked again: “A few days ago, a doctor came to take the pulse of sister-in-law, what’s the result?”
“The doctor said that Madam’s fetus is stable and everything is fine.”
In this case, this person was bribed by Jiang Birou.
She thought for a while and ordered: “Three things. First, prepare a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, I want to write a note to brother. Second, go to the doctor of the day and pry his mouth open. Third, pack my luggage for me , I am going to run away from home for a few days.”
Picking branches was startled: “Run away from home?”
In the middle of the night that day, Yuan Cixian braved the cold wind, avoiding the Jinwu guards who were patrolling at night all the way, and came to the side gate of the Lu Mansion in Yongxingfang.
The so-called open spears are easy to hide, but hidden arrows are hard to guard against. If Jiang Birou wants to make trouble, there are countless ways to do it. Even if it’s not throwing pots or playing Cuju, it’s fine to fall or slide in front of her. At that time, in order to avoid disaster, she will have to be on guard in her own home like a thief. What a tiring life.
The most permanent solution is to run away from home. She is not at home, who can bully her?
She touched her nose, which was red from the cold, and sighed.
Right now she has nowhere to go, so she can only take advantage of Lu Shiqing and give him a chance to redeem himself.
The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the wall was even higher. She took out a black cloth towel to cover most of her face, and slowly climbed up with the help of Picking Branches, but one leg had just stepped over the edge of the wall, and she had not had time to jump down. It alarmed the servants who were watching the night.
Dozens of young servants came rushing from all directions holding torches, and the first one shouted at her: “Who is here? How dare you break into a private house at night!”
Oh, Yuan Cixian remembered, the last time she sneaked into Lu’s residence, she told Lu Shiqing that the defense of his house was very problematic and should be changed.
Now she puts herself in the pit of improvement.
Picking up the branches under the wall, he raised his head and said anxiously: “Little lady, come down quickly, and the servant girl will take you out.”
Yuan Cixian lowered her head and said in a low voice, “What are you withdrawing! You go by yourself, don’t get caught!”
What could happen to her in Lu Mansion? Even if he was sure that no matter how much Lu Shiqing detested her, he would not do anything to her, so he dared to go to heaven and earth with confidence.
But she really didn’t want to disturb anyone except Lu Shiqing, so as not to make people laugh, she said in a rough voice: “Heroes and heroes, I am your lord’s bosom friend, I am here at night, and I will come to visit, please… Announcement?”
The people below obviously didn’t believe her nonsense. Seeing that several strong men were about to climb up to chase her away, she said quickly: “Your husband is 22 years old and unmarried this year. He looks suave and heroic. The two most powerful servants around him are one One is called Cao An, the other is Zhao Shu, he is afraid that dogs are obsessed with cleanliness, and when he sees things that have to be paired, even the bookshelves in the study are symmetrical… I am really his bosom friend!”
“…” It sounds like a very “confidant”, especially a private message like Bogujia.
The boys stopped moving forward to push people away. Yuan Cixian heaved a sigh of relief, and was about to ask them to announce, but saw two people walking quickly from the corridor, watching from a distance, the one in front was the alarmed Lu Shiqing, and the one behind was Cao An who held a torch.
As if she had been pardoned, she straddled the edge of the wall and waved towards that direction: “Brother Zishu!”
Lu Shiqing paused.
He was quite familiar with this rough voice.
After a pause, he walked faster, and when he got to the foot of the wall, he saw Yuan Cixian winking at him, he couldn’t help but get a headache, cleared his throat, and ordered to all directions: “Everyone back down.”
After everyone had left, only Cao An who “leave the lamp” left, Lu Shiqing looked up at the person on the wall: “It’s midnight, what are you doing with me?”
Yuan Cixian pulled off the veil so that he could see all her “beauty”, and then said pitifully: “I was kicked out by my elder brother and I am homeless, can you take me in for a night…”
