Chapter 39: emptiness

Views:

Mu Mingtang didn't know that someone went out at night. She is still sleeping on the side of the bed, and she can fall asleep as soon as she touches the pillow. When she opened her eyes the next day, Xie Xuanchen was lying outside, her face was straight and her eyebrows were like Painting, beautiful and pure.

How could Mu Mingtang think that there would be hidden links after she fell asleep.

In fact, it was a misunderstanding that the two of them slept together at first. The next day, Mu Mingtang wanted to move out, but the imperial doctor sent by the court was too perfunctory. Mu Mingtang couldn't see it, so he could only stay in the bedroom and let Xie Xuanchen call her. cover. After all, if she sleeps alone, there will be a maid guarding her bed, and Mu Mingtang can't act alone anyway.

But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, so she stayed like this for half a month. Even if Imperial Doctor Zhang was finally settled later, Mu Mingtang couldn't find a chance to propose to move.

She has lived for too long, and all the maids have become accustomed to it. If she moves out suddenly, outsiders will probably have to think more about what happened. It would be bad if the imperial doctor was exposed because of this.

Mu Mingtang struggled for several days, but couldn't find an impeccable excuse. He wanted to say but couldn't. As for Xie Xuanchen, as if he had forgotten about it, he never mentioned it again.

Mu Mingtang can only comfort himself that he will come to Japan for a long time, to stabilize temporarily, and to find opportunities in the future.

After she and Xie Xuanchen came back from a walk in the garden, they kept thinking about Xie Xuanchen's words. Xie Xuanchen said that the emperor wanted to save face, so he would ask for anything from them during this time. No matter what Mu Mingtang did, the emperor would not hold him accountable, instead he would make up for the hole in a good voice.

The emperor's wool was not white or white, so Mu Mingtang tentatively spent a lot of money in the gold jewelry store, almost buying out half of the floor.

Sure enough, a few days later, another reward came from the palace, this time it was the Queen's. Afterwards, Mu Mingtang converted it at the market price and found that it was just a little more than what she spent.

Of course, if the emperor makes a move, it will not be exactly complete, and the price will always be about the same, or slightly more. Mu Mingtang was relieved, no matter what happened next, the palace would definitely say something.

At first, the emperor thought that Xie Xuanchen's time was running out, and took advantage of the last time to show his generosity and kindness, so that when the only son of the late emperor died, no one could talk about the emperor.

The extravagant behavior of accommodating the nephew's family is obviously one of them. The more extravagant Mu Mingtang is, the more it can reflect the simplicity of the royal family and the tolerance of the emperor.

At the beginning, the emperor was very leisurely, but he was just pretending, how much a woman from the people could spend. It's really worthwhile to exchange a meager amount of money and silk for an immortal fame.

But later, the emperor couldn't sit still, and Mu Mingtang was going too far, right? She almost ransacked the gold market in Tokyo, and finally, as soon as the merchants had new gold items, they immediately came to Princess An.

But a lot has been done before, and if he stopped, it would appear that the emperor was inconsistent and hypocritical. For the sake of his own reputation, and for the sake of his previous efforts not to be wasted, the emperor could only continue to spend money.

After all, to the emperor, money is really just a number. As long as Xie Xuanchen's thorn in his side can be resolved, it is worth burning more money.

There are quite a few in the palace who want to save face and suffer, and now they can't let go. Mu Mingtang is very open, it doesn't matter, she doesn't want face anyway. If such a good opportunity is missed, there will be no second time. To be able to pick up the emperor's wool, of course, one must pick enough money.

To spend a lot of money in a short period of time, but also to maximize the use of this money, how? Naturally buy gold. Jiaozi must be backed by the imperial court, and cloth, rice grains and other items are easily perishable, and only gold is the most valuable.

Anyway, Mu Mingtang used to be a businesswoman, and her love of yellow and white things fits her personality. She doesn't care if others say she is tacky, she just wants to talk about it, anyway, the money is in her hands, and it's not painful to be mocked a few words of vulgarity.

After the emperor changed his title, Xie Xuanchen seemed to disappear in the capital. After all, ordinary people don't pay attention to court affairs, who knows who King An is, and the name of King Qiyang, who was famous in the war, is no longer mentioned in the capital.

The power of changing the name is quite huge, and the common people can't hear Xie Xuanchen's news at all. Before Xie Xuanchen died, outsiders had already begun to forget him.

The emperor was laying the groundwork for Xie Xuanchen's death. Everything was done step by step and went very smoothly. But in the later period, Mu Mingtang was suddenly born, and he spent a lot of money to buy out several gold shops. Tokyo's business is extremely prosperous. As long as there is a market, there is nothing that is not in circulation. Foreign gold dealers continue to run to the capital, and the reputation of Prince An's Mansion has spread like never before.

No one in the capital now knows that Princess An is very fond of gold and is very generous. As long as she likes it, she can buy out a street with a wave of her hand.

Mu Mingtang became famous unexpectedly. The princess can spend so much money. Of course, many people care about who Prince An is. Gradually, some people connect Prince An and Prince Qiyang.

The emperor went around such a big circle, but in the end, he was defeated by Mu Mingtang's ability to spend money.

On the other hand, Jiang Mingwei repeated herself, and finally recovered from her illness. After she recovered from her illness, in order to cheer Jiang Mingwei's illness, her friends specially organized a game and pulled her out to relax.

The protagonist of today's game is naturally Jiang Mingwei. In addition to Jiang Mingwei and a few friends in the circle, there are also several other local wives in the capital. They are all people who are used to socializing. The female relatives greeted each other when they met, and everyone said good things about Jiang Mingwei one by one. However, they flattered for a long time, Jiang Mingwei's face was pale, and it looked like she couldn't lift her spirits.

The friend couldn't save face and asked, "Mingwei, what's wrong with you? Are you still ill?"

Jiang Mingwei shook her head and said, "It's okay."

Physical illness is the second, and the main thing, is the lack of energy in the heart.

A friend wanted to make fun of him and deliberately said: "Mingwei and King Jin have been married for almost two months. After so long, King Jin still makes you so tired?"

The wives here are all married, and they laughed ambiguously when they heard this. Although this is a joke, it is still mostly pleasing. Husband-in-law stayed in his room every night, and he was still obsessed with it. He couldn't handle it.

Of course, the friend said this on purpose. Jiang Mingwei is most proud of being asked to marry by the King of Jin in every possible way, and she has no regrets. Jiang Mingwei always complained about this in the past, but their eyes are not blind, of course they can recognize where Jiang Mingwei is complaining, she is clearly showing off.

This time, my friend deliberately said this in front of everyone, just to vote for Jiang Mingwei. After the friend finished speaking, they waited expectantly for Jiang Mingwei's reaction. As a result, Jiang Mingwei didn't talk or laugh, but just twitched her lips listlessly.

"I was sick a few days ago, so why would I keep the prince by my side? I'm not one of those arrogant people who can't sleep without a man."

The friend's laughter froze for a moment, and the others also heard that something was wrong. Jiang Mingwei's words were very poisonous and seemed to be satirizing someone.

The ladies present quietly glanced at each other, tacitly knowing. Jiang Mingwei fell ill some time ago, and the Empress even sent someone to visit her. Coincidentally, it happened that after Jiang Mingwei lost two maids, the queen sent a confidant to the palace to care for her daughter-in-law. After that, Jiang Mingwei claimed that she was seriously ill and would not stay behind closed doors, not even paying attention to the affairs of the palace. It was not until recently that he recovered from his illness that he reappeared in front of outsiders.

Yo, it seems that even a childhood sweetheart, a golden boy and a girl, is still unavoidable.

The friend didn't expect to flatter the horse's leg, and was immediately embarrassed, and quickly changed the topic to get past it. The expression on Jiang Mingwei's face was still light, and she was still very angry when she thought about what happened last night.

In the past few days, because of her illness, the King Jin's house was smoky, and there were many people who climbed the bed and offered pillow seats. Jiang Mingwei guarded Xie Xuanji's side like an iron bucket. In order to be an example, she did not hesitate to drag the sick body to treat two of them, but in a blink of an eye, a maid in the palace came to deliver medicine to Jiang Mingwei.

That mama was clearly sent by the queen to care about her condition, but in fact, she was warning Jiang Mingwei not to be jealous and to let Xie Xuanji have a child as soon as possible.

Jiang Mingwei's heart went cold when she heard those words. She just took the medicine, but her body is cold and her heart is even colder.

Although Mrs. Xie became the queen, she was not in love with her. Xie Rui had not stayed in her room for the past few years. There are young and beautiful concubines and concubines in the palace. Mrs. Xie Er was able to become the queen all because she gave birth to Xie Xuanji. Xie Rui cared about fame the most, and didn't want to bear the burden of abandoning his bad wife.

Therefore, the queen was very concerned about Xie Xuanji. Xie Xuanji is indeed the most vocal prince in the court, but he is not the only one. Several of his younger brothers are about to grow up.

The positions of daughter-in-law and mother-in-law are probably always different. The queen wants Xie Xuanji to give birth to a grandson as soon as possible. It doesn't matter whether it is from the real wife or not.

Jiang Mingwei can be extravagant and profligate, and can have no talent or virtue, but alone cannot be jealous.

Although the queen is in the palace, she has put a lot of eyes and ears in the palace of Jin Wang. No, Jiang Mingwei just beat up the maid who served in the bed for an excuse, and the queen sent someone over there.

After Jiang Mingwei was warned by the empress, she was rather disheartened. This is Aunt Xie, who has watched her grow up since childhood, and this is her mother-in-law. When she was in Lin'an, Mrs. Xie wanted to marry her as a daughter-in-law. What she said was so disgusting. Even Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Jiang promised that after marrying Jiang Mingwei, she would definitely treat Jiang Mingwei as her own girl. However, in just a few years, the queen intervened in the private affairs of her son and daughter-in-law, and even blatantly favored Xie Xuanji's couples.

Jiang Mingwei said it was false to say that she did not feel cold. When she was still in Lin'an, the Xie family lived next door to the Jiang family. Jiang Mingwei and Mrs. Xie were not as close as mothers and daughters, but they were very harmonious. For Jiang Mingwei, Aunt Xie is closer than her biological aunt and aunt. Later, when I heard adults tease her and Xie Xuanji every day, Jiang Mingwei blushed. In fact, she knew that she was going to enter Xie's house in the future, and she became more close to Mrs. Xie.

But things have changed day by day after moving to Tokyo from the status of the two companies. Jiang Mingwei watched Xie's family go farther and farther, and Mrs. Xie became unfamiliar. After Mrs. Xie became the queen, the gentle and kind Aunt Xie in her memory was completely dead, and the person sitting on it was a strange woman she didn't know at all.

Jiang Mingwei of the first generation had no way to adjust such a gap. In addition, the young people did not work hard and were rebellious in their youth. She thought that their family was not warm to her, and she did not bother to marry the Xie family. She still paid attention to Xie Xuanchen's news in those years, but Jiang Mingwei knew that it was impossible for her and Xie Xuanchen, whether it was before or after Xie Xuanchen's accident. She can only marry Xie Xuanji, who is just one step away from everywhere, as if she is about to be ready.

Jiang Mingwei couldn't adjust her mood. Later, she met Yeluyan, who was warm and hearty and very different from the Central Plains men.

Later, when Jiang Mingwei heard the news of the Ye Dynasty, she wished to slap herself who eloped at the beginning. When she was reborn in this life, Jiang Mingwei immediately turned around and returned to China.

She was afraid that she was not blind in her last life, obviously, this is her home.

Jiang Mingwei was apprehensive when she came back, and she was relieved when she finally married Xie Xuanji. She finally corrected the mistakes of her previous life, and now she can sit back and relax.

Does Jiang Mingwei love Xie Xuanji? No, he was just a decent husband candidate for her. Later, when she learned about Xie Xuanji's future achievements, Jiang Mingwei was even more unlikely to miss such a good opportunity. In this regard, Xie Xuanji is not even comparable to Yeluyan. At least at the beginning, Jiang Mingwei was really passionately in love.

As for Xie Xuanchen, I can't say that I love it, and it seems that I can't say that I like it. Jiang Mingwei actually had very little contact with Xie Xuanchen, and he never even met face to face a few times.

However, who made Xie Xuanchen appear in front of her with high spirits and radiance. Some people can't make waves in their hearts when they see it in their whole life, but for some people, just one side is enough to be amazing.

However, Jing Jing can't be eaten as a meal, and those seemingly absent heartbeats and longings are not enough for Jiang Mingwei to give up Xie Xuanji, who is destined to be emperor, and be delayed for life by Xie Xuanchen, who can't live for a few days. When Jiang Mingwei saw Xie Xuanchen again, there were still waves in her heart, but that was all. Marriage is marriage, heartbeat is heartbeat, and should not be confused.

Jiang Mingwei sincerely regards Princess Jin as her own career, not only that, she also wants to be the queen and queen mother. Jiang Mingwei is ambitious, she thinks she has made a lot of achievements, but what the queen does is like pouring cold water on her head, which makes Jiang Mingwei very chilled.

Jiang Mingwei stayed behind closed doors and deliberately got angry for a while. She waited for a long time, but found that neither the palace nor Xie Xuanji paid attention to her.

Jiang Mingwei's pain increased, but she slowly woke up. What is she doing, she is reborn again, is it because she is jealous with a few maids

In Xie Xuanji's identity, there is no shortage of women around him, and he can guard against it now, but also in the future. It is better to open up generously, let Xie Xuanji see her virtuousness, and think of her better. She is a person who wants her mother to honor the world, like a poisonous woman and a shrew in the market, making trouble for the concubine's room, what is the proper way

Jiang Mingwei warned herself not to be so petty, so she no longer forcibly stopped the maid who climbed the bed. In this way, it is like releasing the floodgates, and there are endless ghosts and monsters. In the first few days, Xie Xuanji was worried about Jiang Mingwei and ignored it, but last night, he called water.

When Jiang Mingwei heard the news, she was heartbroken, and she realized that no matter how nicely she said it or how much she read it, she couldn't care less when this kind of thing really happened.

Jiang Mingwei basically didn't sleep last night, and kept repeating what Xie Xuanji and another woman were doing in the house. Ironically, Xie Xuanji asked for water more than once in his room.

This is simply beating her wife in the face in public. Because Xie Xuanji and her never did it a second time even when they were newly married.

Jiang Mingwei was upset today, but she didn't have long eyes, so she deliberately mentioned this. Jiang Mingwei's new hatred and old hatred came up together, and she couldn't help sneering. The one who couldn't sleep without a man was naturally the cheap hoof who seduced Xie Xuanji last night.

Jiang Mingwei's expression was obviously bad, and even if others saw that Jiang Mingwei was in a wrong state, they didn't dare to ask again. They changed the subject with a smile, deliberately laughing and bluffing, trying to warm up the atmosphere. One of the wives talked about the new things in the capital these days and said with a smile: "There have been a lot of strange things in the capital recently. Jinxiu is falling day by day, but the price of gold is rising day by day. I think if it continues to rise, we even have gold hairpins. It's useless."

The wife's original intention was to joke, but after she finished speaking, she realized that Jiang Mingwei was also there. The story of Mu Mingtang's huge sum of money has spread all over the capital, and the rise in the price of gold is all her credit. I used to laugh with my close friends in private, but today in front of Princess Jin, why did you mention that one

Sure enough, the scene suddenly became cold after these words were said, and the wife who spoke was extremely embarrassed. Unexpectedly, after a few interruptions, Jiang Mingwei picked up the topic by herself: "Sister-in-law likes gold and silver things the most. Gold jewelry is new and shiny, and it's also very good."

At this time, the celebrities in the capital pursued elegance and lightness. Jiang Mingwei's words sounded like she was speaking for Mu Mingtang, but in fact, she was secretly satirizing Mu Mingtang's vulgar taste.

When the conversation was raised, the ladies, you and I, will inevitably discuss Mu Mingtang. A wife smiled and said, "Princess An is really mysterious. I can't hear her name, but I haven't seen her. I haven't seen Princess An before."

Another person continued: "When I attended Princess Jin's wedding, I was lucky enough to meet once. But I just looked at it from a distance and didn't say anything. I didn't know what kind of temperament Princess An was. But looking at the scene at that time, Princess An's body is flawless, and she really looks like she's not bad for money."

Everyone sighed involuntarily when they heard it. No matter how vulgar you laugh at people, you can't change the fact that real money has gone into people's pockets. In contrast, elegant can sell for a few bucks.

Nowadays, the topic of noble ladies in the whole capital can't get around Mu Mingtang. She is really a terrible woman. She never buys anything, just on the street. Some people dislike Mu Mingtang's vulgar taste, but more people are envious.

In the past, the husband emptied a street for her, and later the emperor gave him a generous reward. Who wouldn't be envious of such extravagance

Someone said: "Prince An was already rich, and the palace still rewards him from time to time. Now, there is only one woman in the backyard of Prince An's mansion, and all the money is spent on her. What?"

Jiang Mingwei has always been proud of her high marriage, and when she heard people say Mu Mingtang, she originally despised her very much. But I didn't expect that after saying this, half of the people present showed their approval.

Jiang Mingwei raised her eyebrows unexpectedly, and immediately said: "After my sister-in-law is married, she will be clean, and she does not need to manage the mansion or serve her in-laws. Naturally, it is very easy. She is the only one in the backyard of Prince An's mansion, and she will not be in the future. A lot, it really suits my sister-in-law's character best. I'm just a hard worker, and I can't compare to my sister-in-law. "

After saying this, everyone fell silent. After Jiang Mingwei finished speaking, she raised her teacup to hide the sneer on her lips.

Although Jiang Mingwei used an envious tone, in fact, she felt a wave of malicious joy in her heart. Not long ago, she was still heartbroken that her husband had another woman, and in an instant she mocked Mu Mingtang for being a widow. In the case of Mu Mingtang's marriage, I am afraid that there will be no normal married life in his life, and he can only rely on spending money to cover up the emptiness in his heart. What's the use of her spending more money

Really sad.
