Save the Abusive Heroine - Chapter 72
Uncle Lin recounts the long-lost past events:
“It has been thirty-seven years since that incident. Thirty-seven years ago was the time when the late emperor was at its peak in the Spring and Autumn Period. At that time, the world was peaceful and the country was prosperous and the people were safe, but no one thought…
The remnants of the previous dynasty have been dormant in Kyoto for 30 years! It was a summer, and the late emperor brought a group of family members, as well as the eldest princess and some ministers’ family members to the palace to escape the summer heat.
On the way to escape the summer, the remnants of the previous dynasty launched an attack on the emperor’s team. At that time, the emperor was very fond of the eldest princess, so he took the eldest princess with him.
The eldest princess was still with her three-year-old daughter, who was the only seedling of the Kyoto royal family.
Concubine Liu remembered that the eldest princess was at his side. When he attacked Yu Xie, it was Concubine Liu who desperately protected each other to protect the frame of the late emperor.
It’s just that the remnants of the previous dynasty were raging in the afterlife, so the team was completely dispersed.
At that time, the late emperor suffered some heat, and the whole person was groggy. The eldest princess neglected her little daughter because she wanted to take care of the late emperor.
After everything was settled down, everyone knew that Consort Liu was escorted to death, and the only daughter of the eldest princess also disappeared in this turmoil.
However, people say that when such an older girl encounters such a thing, I am afraid that she will not survive.
In this way, how could the eldest princess not be mad when her husband and daughter died on the same day? “
Wen Xiao nodded when he heard this:
“It turned out to be like this, it seems that even the most honorable princess in the royal family will have bad luck.
However, even under such a blow, the princess was able to survive, and even sheltered her own children under her wings. “
When Uncle Lin heard Wen Xiao say this, he looked at her in surprise:
“How does the girl know that the eldest princess is sheltering her child under her wings, after all, that is also the child of the Liu family.”
Wen Xiao smiled and stroked his temples:
“What if it’s the children of the Liu family, they were originally from the Liu family, but they were able to live in the eldest princess’ mansion for no reason. They must be incompatible with the Liu family, but they don’t know how the Liu family came to be so daring. ?”
“The Liu family was a hero in the founding of the country, and they had a life-long friendship with the late emperor, and the late emperor even gave them the Iron Fist Pill Book, and they only had a bad relationship with the eldest princess, because…
The concubine Liu is an unborn talent of the Liu family. At that time, the Liu family also pointed to the concubine Liu to make the Liu family to a higher level, but they did not want the concubine Liu to be deeply in love with the eldest princess, so she also retired from the court.
Later, after the death of the concubine Liu, the old lady of the Liu family believed that the fate of the eldest princess killed her children, and she rejected all the children of the eldest princess.
After all, she was just an old lady, and no matter how dissatisfied the late emperor was, he couldn’t use his power to overwhelm people. “
“It’s like this…”
Wen Xiao glanced at the post in his hand and shook his head:
“It seems that the eldest princess is not easy. She shelters so many people under her wings, but raises so many white-eyed wolves.”
“Who said it wasn’t? However, these old stories were just heard by the old man in the streets and alleys, and he didn’t know if it was true or not. Today, Miss Quan Dangbo smiled.
However, the Miss Liu Wanqing Liu we are going to talk about today is also a famous figure in Beijing. She leaned on the eldest princess behind her and once rescued the old lady of the Liu family outside the Buddhist temple, so she was the only one in the palace of the eldest princess.
In addition, she is the only girl among the grandchildren of the eldest princess, so the eldest princess is also very fond of her.
But the old man wanted to say more than the origin of this girl Liu, the general had already told the old man.
The other girls and the old man don’t know, only Miss Liu family, but she grew up with the prince of Huaihou as childhood sweethearts, no guesses.
Before, the girl treated the prince like that at the door of the car, this Miss Liu family was only afraid that the visitor would be unkind. “
Wen Xiao heard this and nodded cautiously:
“Thank you, Uncle Lin, I have written down your words.”
Uncle Lin waved his hand with a smile. The two were talking when they saw a figure passing through the hanging flower door and walking along the hand-picking corridor.
“General.”
“grown ups.”
Jiang Miao was carrying two bags of things wrapped in oil paper, which were the most popular pie in Kyoto, with meat pie inside.
Jiang Miao gave one to Uncle Lin, and the other to Wen Xiao:
“Try it, it’s very famous in Kyoto, you can’t buy it even if you line up!”
Wen Xiao was stunned for a moment and didn’t say anything, when he realized that there was a piece of warm biscuits wrapped in oil paper in his palm.
Wen Xiao lowered his head and took a bite. The oily pork filling was wrapped in a few scallions, and the delicious juice overflowed between his lips and tongue when he took a bite.
The noodles are soft and pliable, and the meat filling is fragrant. Wen Xiao was not hungry at first, but now he took a bite and felt a big appetite, and he finished one sesame cake in three or two.
Then, Jiang Miao poured a cup of warm tea from the table and handed it to Wen Xiao, who hurriedly took it and took a sip:
“tasty!”
Jiang Miao looked at Wen Xiao with a smile, but did not speak. I don’t know when Uncle Lin had already left slowly.
“The adults came back quickly.”
“It’s not a big deal, it’s useless to stay in that place for a long time.”
Wen Xiao blinked and wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief:
“Uh, I just made the adults laugh.”
Wen Xiao didn’t have anything to do with spying on Jiang Mansion, which changed the topic.
Seeing that Wen Xiao didn’t want to talk more about that, Jiang Miao glanced at the invitation card on the table.
“From the Liu family?”
Jiang Miao had never opened it, but just by looking at the luxurious decoration on it, he knew that it was undoubtedly the Liu family.
The Liu family lost a willow concubine at the beginning, in exchange for decades of guilt after the late emperor, and then through the eldest princess pua, the descendants of the Liu family even spread throughout the court.
So much so that the Liu family is now flourishing and flourishing, and even the invitation cards are extremely arrogant.
“My lord actually knows about the Liu family…”
“The Liu family is prosperous, and everyone in Kyoto knows it.”
Jiang Miao said with her eyes half down.
Wen Xiao pursed her lips when she heard the words, and asked in a low voice:
“Then according to the opinion of the adults, should I accept this invitation or not?”
“If you want to play, then go.”
“Play?”
Wen Xiao blinked in confusion, Jiang Miao smiled and stretched out her hand and rubbed Wen Xiao’s head:
“Although the Liu family is prosperous, it’s a pity that the Liu family’s era is almost over. You are my future wife, where can I go in this capital?”
“Is it okay with the palace too?”
Wen Xiao asked curiously, while Jiang Miao paused:
“You can go if you want. Your Majesty is very curious about you. If you want to go there…”
“Don’t go, don’t go!”
Hearing this, Wen Xiao shook his head like a wavy drum.
That’s Your Majesty! The lord of the world, who is above ten thousand people, is curious about himself when he thinks of that one… Wen Xiao felt that the hairs on his body stood up involuntarily.
She is coward!
Seeing the warm smile, Jiang Miao burst out laughing:
“That’s scary. I thought you weren’t afraid of anything! Besides, when you and I get married in the future, if there is a banquet in the palace, you will enter the palace with me.”
When Wen Xiao heard what Jiang Miao said, her face turned red:
“It’s still early…”
Jiang Miao smiled and glanced at Wen Xiao, which was meaningful:
“It’s late……”
“Speaking of which, the General’s Mansion sent someone to call me back today. There is one thing…”
“That’s the private matter of the adults, and the adults don’t have to tell me.”
Wen Xiao quickly refused, as if afraid that Jiang Miao would say something bad, Jiang Miao was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and gently embraced Wen Xiao in her arms.
“What are you thinking? I think I have to tell you something first. Otherwise, if you are caught off guard and misunderstood by me, what should you do?”
When Wen Xiao was embraced by Jiang Miao, her whole body suddenly froze, but the mesmerizing fragrance made her almost restrain herself from wanting to push Jiang Miao’s hand away.
Wen Xiao took a deep breath, and said with a heavy weight as if facing all kinds of difficulties:
“Then Lord, say it! But, before that, I also have something to tell the Lord.
The Wen family’s daughter will never be a concubine, it is not a false statement, this is true for Huaihou Mansion, and it is also true for adults.
If it is, if the adults cannot accept it, then I have no choice but to feel sorry for the adults. “
After hearing this, Jiang Miao rubbed Wen Xiao’s head and said with a smile:
“What are you thinking? How can you be a concubine, even if you want to be, I can’t agree! You are the only one in this life.”
Wen Xiao was shocked, raised his head and looked at Jiang Miao.
At that time, Jiang Miao was also looking at her, and the reflections of the two people corresponded to each other in those dark and shining eyes.
Wen Xiao had also heard it in the script of the script, and the love didn’t know where it started, and it went deep.
However, in the past, she scoffed at such mysterious and mysterious things, but at this moment, she felt that this sentence was so beautiful.
“May, the adults always remember this.”
Jiang Miao teased her:
“What if one day I forgot?”
Wen Xiao pondered for a while, and then said in a serious tone:
“I will help adults fulfill this promise.”
“for example?”
Wen Xiao lowered his eyes, but covered the churning emotions in his eyes.
“There’s no such thing as an example. If you want to know, you can give it a try, but I hope you will never know.”
The topic became inexplicably heavy, and then Wen Xiao suddenly burst into laughter. She raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Miao, her eyes were bright, as if the person who said that just now was not herself.
“Okay, let’s not talk about this matter, what did the adults want to tell me?”
Jiang Miao vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but she didn’t know what was wrong. Seeing Wen Xiao, she was reluctant to say it, but she did not force her.
Jiang Miao thought about the words in her heart, and told her about the marriage with Wu Shangshu’s daughter that Jiang Wang told her.
“Tomorrow I will go to ask your majesty to grant marriage, but the date of the invitation is also tomorrow, so I am afraid that the daughter of Wu Shangshu may embarrass you at the banquet tomorrow.”
There was Liu Wanqing, who had a grudge against the prince of Huaihou, and Wu Shangshu’s daughter, who might marry Jiang Miao.
“If you don’t want to go, then don’t go.”
“No, I’m going.”
Wen Xiao said in a flat tone, but it made Jiang Miao look at her in surprise, then Wen Xiao said with a smile:
“Maybe I can deal with this without appearing, but in the future, the adults are going to marry me. Do I have to let the adults stand in front of me in everything in the future?”
Jiang Miao was silent for a while, then gently touched Wen Xiao’s long hair.
“I do hope you can rely on me.”
However, if this is what the child wants to do, he will not stop her. If she wants to grow up, then she will **** her.
When Wen Xiao heard Jiang Miao’s words, she softened her body and leaned against Jiang Miao’s chest.
She listened to the rhythmic beating of her heart and said softly:
“Sir, you are so kind to me…you have to be kind to me all the time.”
Wen Xiao said softly, but her fingers subconsciously grabbed Jiang Miao’s front.
“Okay, I’ve always been nice to you.”
Because the invitation came suddenly and the time was short, Jiang Miao took Wen Xiao directly to the clothing store to buy clothes.
The next day, Jiang Miao got up early in the morning and was ready to go to court.
Before leaving, Jiang Miao looked at Wen Xiao’s eyes, and a trace of worry finally flashed.
“When you first came to Kyoto, you didn’t know the habits of these noble ladies in Kyoto, but I won’t stop you if you want to go, but if there is anything, you can just leave.
If so, if something happens that you are inconvenient to do, blow the bamboo whistle and someone will help you. “
Wen Xiao raised her head and smiled at Jiang Miao:
“Okay, I wrote it down, you can also try to believe me, I won’t embarrass you!”
“You, I’m not afraid of your shame, just don’t get hurt.”
Wen Xiao nodded obediently, Jiang Miao was worried but couldn’t just drive away.
After all, as the child said, she couldn’t protect her all the time.
Wen Xiao waited for Jiang Miao to leave, and seeing that it was still early for the banquet, he went to the alley to have breakfast again, and then returned to Bieyuan again.
In Bieyuan, Jiang Miao had already had someone prepare a carriage and a driver for Wen Xiao.
The driver looked taciturn, but the tiger’s mouth covered with thin calluses was not an ordinary person at first glance.
“Girl, the general sent me to **** you, please get in the car.”
Wen smiled and thanked him with a smile, then stepped on the stool and got on the carriage.
Kyoto ah…
She would like to see how the ladies in this Kyoto are different from other places?
There are carved beams and painted buildings everywhere in the eldest princess mansion, three steps and one pavilion, five steps and one pavilion.
At this moment, the little maid sent by Liu Wanqing who came to greet her also used the end of her eyes to follow her with a warm smile.
This woman, she heard from the eldest lady, is just a mere actress, but she didn’t expect to have such a calm demeanor.
This made the little girl’s heart stunned, but she couldn’t help but sighed in her heart.
No matter how good this girl is, she is not as noble as her own eldest lady, and today, eldest lady, she is…
“Girl, in front of you is the place where all the coquettish guests will gather. The slaves have other important things and can’t go any further.”
Wen Xiao didn’t care, just shook his head slightly.
She is now in the same place, looking at the blue waves not far away, the willow branches swaying gently, but she vaguely feels a sense of familiarity flashing in her heart.
However, the strange feeling in her heart was quickly suppressed by her, and the green sea of green ocean made of a large lotus leaf on the blue wave not far away swayed gently in the wind.
On it, white, pink, purple and other lotus flowers are embellished, dragonflies shuttle between the gaps, and the pavilions on the lake are covered with light gauze.
It is a very beautiful place and a very suitable place to escape the heat.
It’s only here that I don’t feel how, and when I walk to the pavilion, I feel more and more cool.
Wen Xiao took a closer look, only to find that there was an ice cube half a person high in the pavilion.
An inch of ice in Kyoto is worth an inch of gold, but the princess’ mansion can take out such a big piece of ice and put it in a pavilion that is ventilated everywhere, which is enough to imagine the depth of the princess’ mansion.
Wen Xiao walked along the small bridge with Jiangnan flavor, and the previous convenience was her destination, but at this moment, there were bursts of charming smiles like a yellow warbler out of the valley.
“Miss Wen is here—”
After all, the incident at the city gate was too famous. As soon as Wen Xiao approached, a maid said loudly, and the voice inside fell silent at this moment.
If other people are stood up by such a dismount, I am afraid that they will be stunned on the spot.
But Wen Xiao didn’t dodge or evade, stepped in, and then saluted the young ladies:
“I have seen you all.”
Wen Xiao was quite generous and not rude at all, but those young ladies were dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
They didn’t expect that Liu Wanqing would actually post a message to this Miss Wen, whose name spread all over the capital overnight!
For a moment, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
It didn’t take long for a maid to get Liu Wanqing’s signal and stepped forward to lead Wen Xiao to the last seat.
Liu Wanqing was at the top, looking at Wen Xiao from afar, and then she smiled softly:
“Miss Wen, I admire Miss Wen’s courage in regards to the city gate, but even so, Miss Wen’s identity…”
Liu Wanqing hesitated before speaking, and then let out a sigh like a sigh:
“The girl doesn’t know something. We people in Kyoto pay attention to the rules of identity whether it is a banquet. The identity of the girl is really not on the table, so I have to sit at the bottom…”
Liu Wanqing coughed lightly as she spoke, a trace of embarrassment flashed in her eyes, and she looked extraordinarily guilty.
However, in a corner that no one else could see, Liu Wanqing’s eyes did flash with a hint of pride.
It’s just an actor who dares to come to his banquet, and he is not afraid of her dirtying his banquet. Since she dares to come, don’t blame yourself for teaching her!
Wen Xiao smiled lightly, if Jiang Miao was here, she would find that Wen Xiao’s expression at the moment was the same as hers, and even at this moment, Wen Xiao’s words and demeanor had a calm momentum.
“It doesn’t matter, I will keep Miss Liu’s thoughts in my heart. Besides, whether you are the last seat… but it’s just like this gurgling water, from one end to the other, but who can guarantee that one day it will not be your turn?”
Wen Xiao’s words caused Liu Wanqing’s complexion to change drastically, and then she forced her body that was about to slap the desk to squeeze out a stiff smile.
“Miss Wen is worthy of being called a Wen everyone by King Suiyang, and her mouth is agile!”
Liu Wanqing touched a soft nail, and immediately stabbed it back.
But Wen Xiao didn’t take it to heart, and even gave a salute in a leisurely manner:
“Miss Liu is serious, how dare I be praised by King Suiyang.”
Xiquyi is called everyone, and it must be a famous actor in the party.
However, no matter how popular it is, in the eyes of these noble ladies, it is just a little drama.
Therefore, Liu Wanqing stabbed Wen Xiao as an actor, but did not expect that Wen Xiao was not ashamed, but proud, and choked Liu Wanqing’s blood in her throat.
“However, some actors in the mere are proud of their humble status, which is really absurd!”
Liu Wanqing said nothing this time, it was another woman sitting beside her, who was holding a flowery appearance, and there was a hint of coldness in her temperament.
Wen Xiao stayed away, squinted and looked at it, and then called out the identity of the woman:
“It turned out to be Miss Wu. Of course Wen Xiao can’t compare to Miss Wu, you have a noble temperament and a broad mind!”
Although Miss Wu was praised by Wen Xiao, she always felt that it was not a good word to hear Wen Xiao’s tone, and immediately glared at her.
“Player, are you laughing at Miss Ben?”
“Miss Wu thinks that’s it.”
Wen Xiao went back neither soft nor hard, but it made Miss Wu feel angry. If it wasn’t for her demeanor, she would have thrown the cup in her hand.
“Humph! But a small border actor, he really has no rules at all!”
“What about the actors? It’s just a way of making a living, just like Miss Wu is now willing to step on the flesh and blood of her own brother and marry someone?
It is said that □□ is ruthless, and the actors are unrighteous, but no matter how unrighteous the actors are, they are not as good as Miss Wu’s character, so I bow with a warm smile! “
Wen Xiao saved a trace of face for Miss Wu, and did not say that she wanted to sign a marriage contract with Jiang Miao, but Wen Xiao’s words made everyone speculate.
“The Wu family won’t marry the Jiang family?!”
“No, no, no, the Wu family and the Jiang family were so awkward when they were the young master of the Wu family. If Miss Wu really married, would it still be okay?”
“But so what? It was the marriage of the Wu family and the Jiang family. Today’s Jiang family is extraordinary!”
The little girl chatted, and then her eyes filled with admiration:
“Let’s not say anything else, have you ever met the Marquis of Zhen’an of the Jiang family? The one whose face is like a crown of jade is the real one, and the name of the prince of Huaihou, the prince with a jade face, is not as good as the Marquis of Zhen’an in my opinion. one!”
“Also, the Marquis of Zhen’an should be the youngest person in my court to be named a marquis by military merit, and it can be said that the future is boundless!”
…
Miss Wu blushed and had a thick neck because of the warm smile at that moment, but soon the discussions around her made her complexion gradually pale.
Yes, although the Jiang family intends to sign a marriage contract with the Wu family, but the Jiang family has had a bad relationship with the Wu family before. How can they have good fruit to eat when they marry themselves?
I came here today, but because I heard that the actor who was raised by the Marquis of Zhenan was here to find out the truth.
only……
Maybe he is not as good as this actor in Zhang Anhou’s heart?
Miss Wu thought so, and then a bitter smile appeared on her face.
However, Daddy has already decided to do this, so what can he do?
Miss Wu was depressed in her heart, but then she raised her eyes and looked at Wen Xiao, who was sitting far away, but a brilliance suddenly stood up in her eyes.
That’s right, her way out is not right in front of her, Zhenanhou is deeply in love with this actor!
Otherwise, how could he directly refute the face of the prince of Huaihou at the gate of the city, and bring him back to the mansion?
Then, maybe I can win over this actor well before I get married, and let her say something nice for herself in front of the Marquis of Zhen An, and then I will take care of this actor when I get a firm footing!
The more Miss Wu thought about it, the more she felt that this plan was feasible.
And at this moment, Liu Wanqing didn’t expect that Wen Xiao’s mouth would be so sharp, but a humble person can be so neither humble nor arrogant, on the contrary, she and Miss Wu were angry, and a sharp look flashed in her eyes immediately. Then she made a move without a trace.
Wen Xiao was in a good mood after scolding Liu Wanqing and Miss Wu, and couldn’t help but stunned in her heart. It seems that this young lady from Kyoto is not very strong!
