"If one day you are also forced to marry, what will you do?"
Shen Miao was slightly startled, was she forced to marry? In her previous life, she was forced to marry, but she took the initiative to force Fu Xiu Yi to marry her. She was the one who was forced to marry, and she had never thought about being forced to marry. Now that Xie Jing Xing asked, it reminded Shen Miao of something.
With the Shen family returning to the Ding capital, not to mention that Emperor Wen Hui returned the military power of the Shen family army to Shen Xin, it was the Luo family army far away in Xiaochun City, and it was not an army that even the soldiers could not support. Not only did the big house of the Shen family not as everyone expected, it gradually declined because it was far from Dingjing, but it became stronger. The Shen family is like a big piece of fat. When the prince seizes the heirloom, whoever is tied to the Shen family will have a bargaining chip to win.
How to tie it together? In the big family, marriage is the right way.
The marriage of Shen Qiu and Shen Miao became a passage for everyone to climb up to the Shen family. The only difference was that Shen Qiu was a man and could wait for some time, but Shen Miao was a woman, after a long delay, a woman’s years passed away like a flower, and it was inevitable that she would be pointed out.
If one day, she will also become a bargaining chip in the struggle for succession, being scrambled to and robbed, and forced to marry, what will happen
Xie Jing Xing stared at her, his eyes were as sharp as a blade.
“There will not be that day.” Shen Miao said.
“If there is, what should you do?” Xie Jing Xing did not let her go and insisted on asking Shen Miao this question.
Shen Miao thought for a while and said, "Then fight. If he can fight, he naturally thinks of letting him retreat in spite of difficulties.
Xie Jing Xing raised his eyebrows, "Is it okay?"
"You have to live isn't it?" Shen Miao said lightly, "After marrying, if you want to wait for an opportunity to take revenge, there are many helpless things in the world, and I can't be like a strong woman, a white silk sash to die. It would be better. If you save a life, there will always be a chance for a comeback."
The previous experience in the palace made Shen Miao understand that death is the most despairing thing. Once lost, it means that everything is settled, and there is no room for change. She often thinks that if she hadn't died like that in her previous life, and fought with Madam Mei for so many decades in the palace, it's unclear who will die in the end. Maybe she will still lose, but maybe she will also win, she will go up and down the big house of the Shen family, and she will recover the life debt for Wan Yu and Fu Ming. After all, life does not pass in vain.
Xie Jing Xing stared at Shen Miao.
She is like a vigorous plant, a weed that grows in the cold winter, even in the harshest environment, it will never lose hope. Even if you are in the least dominant position, you can climb to the position you want bit by bit. Her purpose is clear, yet mysterious.
Not like a sixteen-year-old boudoir girl.
Xie Jing Xing smiled lightly, "You are like the Shen family."
Shen Miao did not speak, only to hear Xie Jing Xing say again, "I will go out of the city these few days, be careful yourself, if there is any problem, go to Fengxian pawnshop to find Ji Yushu. Gao Yang is my person, you can trust him. "
Shen Miao was stunned for a moment, because of her previous life experience, Shen Miao naturally knew that Gao Yang was Xie Jing Xing's person and could even be called Xie Jing Xing's confidant. But even though she knew, Shen Miao never revealed that Luo Tan was rescued by Gao Yang that day and was ordered by Xie Jing Xing, and Shen Miao just pretended not to know, she knew that some things had bottom lines. Even if Xie Jing Xing is not hostile to her now, it does not mean that one person is willing to let another person find out all the details.
But now Xie Jing Xing took the initiative to tell her that Gao Yang was his person. This is to truly treat Shen Miao as one's own.
Can you be honest with each other just because you're an obvious ally? Why did Xie Jing Xing think that he would not betray him
Shen Miao thought like this, but was not noticed by Xie Jing Xing, he said, "Huangfu Hao may trouble you, and what you cannot solve by yourself can be handed over to Gao Yang."
Shen Miao had an inexplicable strange feeling, this appearance... It was like her husband had told the young wife to pay attention to something before leaving. Shen Miao was startled by her own thoughts and said in a panic, "I see."
Xie Jing Xing was somewhat inexplicable about Shen Miao's sudden panic, but he did not say anything more and left after mentioning a few things that he should pay attention to.
After Xie Jing walked, Shen Miao sat under the lamp and inexplicably felt her cheeks get hot. Every time I talk to Xie Jing Xing these days, I always feel that something is not normal. Shen Miao thought that she would have to ask Gu Yu to drink some Qingxin tea tomorrow, so as to save herself from thinking about it all day.
Xie Jing Xing left the Shen residence and returned to Prince Rui's residence, just in time to see Gao Yang and Ji Yushu there, Ji Yushu was feeding the white tiger. Xie Jing Xing glanced at him and said displeasedly, “Don’t feed him.”
"Jiaojiao likes to eat." Ji Yu said.
The veins on Xie Jing Xing's forehead throbbed and said, "Don't call it by its name."
Ji Yushu was immediately aggrieved, stood up thinking about it, and silently stepped aside.
Gao Yang was used to it, Xie Jing Xing looked at this white tiger very much, but Ji Yushu was the only one who dared to play with the tiger all day. Well, a beautiful and majestic white tiger is now fed into a meat dumpling, and everyone will feel distressed. He walked to Xie Jing Xing's side and asked, "Everything is ready."
“Left tomorrow.” Xie Jing Xing glanced at him, “Dingjing, you should pay more attention during these days.”
Gao Yang looked at him: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you to 'pay attention' to fifth Miss Shen."
“Don’t be too careful.” Xie Jing Xing said indifferently.
Gao Yang was about to vomit blood, but Xie Jing Xing was too moody. Take yesterday as an example, Pei Lang wrote a letter to Shen Miao to the effect that Shen Miao should beware of Huangfu Hao and Fu Xiu Yi, and finally reminded Shen Miao to stay away from Xie Jing Xing. Xie Jingxing asked Gao Yang to copy a letter, Gao Yang was a master of calligraphy and painting, and it was the first time that he did such a copying activity and made a “fake letter”. What was even more amazing was that Xie Jingxing erased the last reminder. Now, I have to ask Gao Yang to add some unwarranted words, just say that if there is trouble, you can go to Prince Rui for help. Although he knew for a long time that the person he was assisting was a black-hearted master, but this time, Gao Yang obviously gained a new understanding of Xie Jing Xing's shamelessness.
"I see," Gao Yang said while shaking his fan, "That is to say, after she caused an accident and I broke it, she killed me and handed me a knife, right?"
“It’s not that troublesome.” Xie Jing Xing hooked his lips and said, “She is very busy with the Shen family’s marriage affairs for the time being, so she doesn’t care about killing people.”
…
After that night, Xie Jing Xing did not appear again, Shen Miao knew that Prince Rui of Great Liang could not stay in the Ding capital just doing nothing. If it was said that Huangfu Hao had stayed until now to investigate the cause of Princess Ming An’s death and to form an alliance with Ming Qi, then Xie Jing Xing’s stay was meaningless. He must have other plans and plans.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was the day when Shen Yue got married.
The eighth day of the twelfth lunar month is an auspicious day, and the time and place are favorable.
Although because of the separation of the Shen family two years ago and the matter of Shen Yuan and Shen Gui, the Shen family today is not as big as it used to be. However, the foreign member had already made a lot of friends in the courtroom, and Shen Yue's name as a talented girl was all over the Dingjing, so this marriage was a lively affair. Shen Yue was also a serious daughter, Shen Wan cherished her reputation, and Wang Bi was even more talented and learned, and it seemed that outsiders would say that she was a talented woman.
In the Shen residence, Shen Yue had already dressed up, but they drove everyone out, leaving only Shen Dongling.
If you look carefully, you can see that Shen Dongling is also well-dressed. Shen Dongling was originally a beauty embryo, but she was covered up because she didn't go out very often on weekdays. Today, the newlyweds dress up, and she looks more and more beautiful. It's just that Shen Yue didn't have the heart to appreciate or be jealous at the moment. When she saw Shen Dongling coming, she said, "Hurry up, hurry up and change clothes with me!"
The previous Xi Niang and the talking Chen Rou Qiu had already left. Over the past few days, on the surface, Shen Yue seemed to have gradually accepted this marriage under Chen Rouqiu's suppression, but she did not seem to reject it. In fact, he and Shen Dongling were secretly plotting how to exchange relatives. The more she came into contact with Shen Dongling, the more Shen Yue felt that Shen Dongling was so deceitful, she was even more stupid than the previous Shen Miao.
Shen Dongling hurriedly changed her clothes and whispered, "Second sister, I'm very scared."
"Don't be afraid." Shen Yuesheng was afraid that Shen Dongling would regret at this critical juncture, so he reassured her: "Don't worry, I will explain to my parents tomorrow that this matter is all up to me, and you will not be implicated. , you are the well-known young lady of Yuanwailang's family, and no one dares to look down on you."
Shen Yue seduced Shen Dongling about her identity, but she saw that Shen Dongling's fear subsided a little, her face flushed, and she couldn't help but secretly contempt. If it wasn't a last resort, she wouldn't want to let Shen Dongling live so well for no reason, but now that she had no choice, she thought it was a charity to give Shen Dongling a lady's reputation.
As soon as I got dressed, I heard someone walking outside. After Shen Yue hurriedly hid behind the screen in the room, Shen Dongling also hurriedly covered her head with a hijab.
Shen Yue's maid walked in from outside. Since the Shen family had no other sisters, the maid helped her out. As for Shen Dongling's excuse to go to help the back kitchen, he disappeared early, and everyone didn't take it to heart.
Chen Rou Qiu originally wanted to have a few words with Shen Yue before getting into the sedan chair, but she saw Shen Yue was supported by her maid and walked straight into the sedan chair, without turning her head towards Chen Rou Qiu at all. Seeing this, Chen Rouqiu felt a little sad in her heart, thinking that Shen Yue was still blaming herself for her marriage, but there was nothing she could do. Under the watchful eyes of the public, I was afraid that there would be more twists and turns, so I followed the steps according to Xi Niang's instructions.
The sedan chair banged away, and was about to be carried to Yuanwailang's mansion. Chen Rou Qiu also had to pack up and followed him to Yuan Wai Lang's house, just happened to be Chang Zai Qing walking over. Xu is to take care of the atmosphere of getting married today, Chang Zaiqing is also wearing a light peach-colored cotton embroidered jacket. Because she always wears some refreshing colors of cyan and daisy, it is rare to wear a gorgeous dress once, but it is not charming. Chang Zaiqing said with a smile: "Second Miss married, and she will have a good future in the future."
When Chen Rou Qiu saw Chang Zai Qing, she remembered that she hadn't seen Chang Zai Qing for a long time. Since the last time she talked to Chang Zaiqing, Chang Zaiqing didn't know what she was doing, and she herself was thinking about Shen Yue's marriage, so she didn't go to talk to Chang Zaiqing. At this moment, Chang Zai Qing's brows and eyes are full of flowing, a little more color than before. When his heart moved, he smiled and said, "Does Sister Qing still go to Sister-in-law's house these days?"
Chang Zaiqing shook his head with a smile, and said, "I don't go often either. The eldest lady and the general are very busy, but they don't have so much time to chat."
Chen Rouqiu was certain that Chang Zaiqing was lying and thought she was shy, so she patted her hand and said, "Young sister Qing is so lovable, why does she have to spare time to talk to you." Chen Rouqiu thought, waiting for Shen Yue Once the matter is over, we should ask Chang Zaiqing how things are going. Shen Yue had no choice but to marry the Wang family, although the Wang family was not bad, but when she thought that her daughter could not marry her sweetheart, and even had a quarrel with herself, Chen Rouqiu felt panicked in her heart. On the other hand, Shen Miao, now Shen Xin is the sweet and sweet in the Ding capital, originally thought that Shen Miao would end miserably if she was kidnapped, but she didn’t want Shen Miao to come back alive, and because of Princess Rong Xin’s intervention The rumors were not self-defeating, looking around the entire Dingjing, if Shen Miao wanted to marry the prince, it was also possible. Chen Rou Qiu felt very unwilling when she thought that what her daughter was longing for could be easily obtained by Shen Miao. Thinking about how a vulgar woman like Luo Xueyan could have children, Chen Rou Qiu could not wait to destroy her.
She glanced at Chang Zaiqing in front of her. Chang Zaiqing had already got Luo Xueyan's green eyes, and now it seemed that she was getting along well with Shen Xin. As long as the days are passed, Chang Zaiqing can find a way to enter the Shen residence... Then the life of Luo Xueyan and Shen Miao in the future will not be easy.
People probably don't like to see other people's good, especially when they are not having a good life, Chen Rouqiu is now thinking like this. She couldn't wait to see Luo Xueyan crying with nothing at all, and seeing Chang Zaiqing became more cordial for a while.
She took Chang Zaiqing's hand and said with a smile: "Let's go. My sister also went with me to Yuanwai Lang's house. I often told Yue'er that I wanted her to learn your manners. Yes, it's a pity."
Chang Zaiqing followed with a smile: "After getting married, there is a husband who hurts. Second Miss, this is good luck."
"You are the only one who can speak," Chen Rou Qiu smiled, "The person who said it has already made a statement." She looked at the colorful sachet in Chang Qing's waist and said, "This sachet is very unique."
Chang Zaiqing took off the sachet and handed it to Chen Rouqiu: "If Madam likes it, give it to Madam."
Chen Rou Qiu naturally liked some delicate things, and the embroiderers of the sachets were indeed exquisite, and she immediately fell in love with them, but she did not refuse. She put it under her nose and sniffed lightly, and said in surprise, "This smell is very good, I don't know what kind of fragrance it is?"
Chang Zaiqing smiled slightly: "I don't know incense, but I know some tea. I put some tea leaves in it at will, thinking that I can refresh myself when I'm tired on weekdays, which made my wife laugh."
"My little sister is ingenious, how dare I make a joke." Chen Rouqiu took the sachet and said with a smile, "I like it very much."
The two laughed and walked outside.
The marriage between Shen Yue and Wang Bi was undoubtedly a big surprise in the quiet Ding capital some time ago. I don't know what the Wang family thought. It seems that in order to highlight the importance of this marriage, He actually carried the sedan chair and walked around the entire Ding capital.
Just happened to go to the downstairs of Fengxian's pawnshop.
Upstairs, Ji Yushu was eating cakes and said, "The marriage of the Wang family is quite lively."
Opposite him, Gao Yang gently shook his fan and glanced downstairs, the sound of gongs and drums was loud, he closed the window with some disgust, and said, "The marriage mother has changed, what's the use of being lively, it's just a matter of time. A farce."
"I'm actually quite interested in this play. It's better to make a scene for three days and three nights." Ji Yushu has the temperament to fear that the world will not be chaotic all day long. He said, "Speaking of which, is Miss Shen doing nothing?"
Xie Jing Xing asked Gao Yang to look at Shen Miao before leaving, if Shen Miao wanted to do anything, he would try to help. Having known Shen Miao for two years, Ji Yushu can be considered to have touched Shen Miao's temperament, looking at her gentle and gentle appearance, but in fact it is the most difficult to provoke. Seeing such a farce, if Shen Miao did not come to fall into the trap, it seemed that she would not be able to justify it.
Gao Yang sneered: "Not now, but there will be in the future."
Ji Yushu wiped his mouth: "Actually, you shouldn't have such a big prejudice against Miss Shen. Miss Shen is still very nice, and she is very generous. She is also very good-looking, why do you always treat her so much? What's the matter with you? Besides, the Shen family didn't cause you any trouble..."
“Is there no trouble?” Gao Yang felt that his chest was stuffy when he mentioned this, Shen Miao did not want to say it, Xie Jing Xing’s moody appearance every day made those around them unlucky. Even Shen Miao’s cousin was not a fuel-efficient lamp, Gao Yang had never seen such a patient who was able to toss, not eating hard and soft, and always felt that he was on the same level as the doctor in the medical clinic. Gao Yang was a young and promising minister in Great Liang, and he was also a imperial physician in Ming Qi, but when he arrived at Luo Tan, he became a barefoot doctor. Gao Yang was really not happy.
Ji Yushu didn't notice Gao Yang's expression, he straightened his clothes, and said leisurely: "Don't worry, let's wait and see a good show tomorrow. The bigger the trouble, the better, so that the third brother won't be bored when he comes back."
…
For the Wang family's marriage, none of the Shen family's big room was present. In fact, Shen Wan sent a message to Shen Zhai, no matter what, he had to take his face into consideration. However, Shen Xin was not a person who was ignorant and condescending, and the things that the Shen family did back then made Luo Xue Yan utterly disgusted, so she didn't answer the post, let alone send gifts. Some people who sat and watched the development clearly understood the attitude of the big house of the Shen family through this matter. Thinking about it, they really decided to cut off relations with the Shen family, and there would be no room for change.
Anyway, that's how it was done.
In the early morning of the second day, Concubine Wan woke up. Yesterday, Shen Yue got married and Shen Dongling helped her. She didn't see anyone for almost the whole day. After returning to the mansion, the maid said that Shen Dongling was tired and fell asleep, and Concubine Wan also didn't bother her. Today, I specially made Jade Sweet Soup, wanting to make Shen Dongling repair her body, she stood outside Shen Dongling's boudoir and knocked on the door.
There was no one in the room to answer, Wan Yiniang said, "Dong Ling, Auntie came in." Then she pushed open the door.
She saw Shen Dongling lying on the bed, covered with a quilt, and sat up abruptly when she heard the movement, Wan Yiniang was stunned at first, and an unbelievable expression appeared on her face, she cried out, "Second miss, why are you here? "
The person lying on Shen Dongling's bed was none other than Shen Yue. And Shen Yue clearly married into Yuan Wai Lang's mansion yesterday, that is to say, the current Shen Yue should not be in Shen's mansion, but in Yuan Wai Lang's mansion. Well, how could it appear on Shen Dongling's bed. Wan Yiniang looked around again, but didn't see Shen Dongling's figure. She was not very smart in normal times, but at this moment she vaguely understood something, she asked with a trembling voice, "Second miss, Dong Ling... Where is Dong Ling? Where did Dong Ling go?"
Shen Yue quickly lowered her head, rolled her eyes, and when she raised her head again, her face was full of tears.
When Wan Yiniang saw Shen Yue's tears, her eyes turned black, she only heard Shen Yue cry, "I don't know, I don't know, the third sister came to toast with me, and then... I don't know anything. It's gone!"
Shen's house exploded.
In Rongjingtang, everyone was standing in one place, Madam Shen squinted her eyes angrily, looked at Yiniang Wan and said angrily, "The good daughter you taught!"
Shen Gui stood in one place and wanted to say something, but now Wan Yiniang is the only woman who gave birth to him, and Wan Yiniang is still gentle and well-behaved on weekdays. affectionate. However, when he saw the angry expressions of his third brother and third sister, he swallowed the words in his mouth.
Shen Dongling actually plotted against Shen Yue and married Shen Yue by herself. Now Shen Yue is left in Shen's residence, but Shen Dongling is married to a member of the family, and no one will be happy. Shen Gui himself could not have imagined, how could Shen Dongling, who usually looks cowardly and cowardly, have such a boldness to change his parents? Shen Gui would never offend his third brother for a daughter, even if that was his only bloodline.
Wan Yiniang cried and kowtowed to the old lady Shen, and said while kowtow: "Old lady knows, Third Young Lady is timid on weekdays, how can she have the courage to change relatives? Old lady, is there some misunderstanding in this? ? Even if the third miss has ten thousand courage, the third miss will definitely not dare to do such a treacherous thing!"
"What do you mean by this is that Yue'er slandered Third Sister?" Chen Rouqiu's face was ashen: "These words are so heart-wrenching, Wan Yiniang!"
Old Shen Furen was not looking forward to seeing Chen Rouqiu on weekdays, and she didn't even have feelings for Shen Yue, but Shen Yue was the granddaughter of the Shen family, and she was robbed of her marriage by a granddaughter, so it wouldn't sound good to say it out. . Immediately he followed Chen Rouqiu's words and said, "What kind of mother has what kind of daughter! It's really something that can't be put on the table!"
Wan Yiniang cried and looked at Shen Yue: "Second Miss, didn't you have a very good relationship with Third Miss before? You should also speak for Third Miss. Third Miss is not that kind of person, right?" Wan Yiniang didn't believe it. Shen Dongling would do such things. Shen Dongling has been an idea since she was a child. Many times, Shen Dongling would even point out things that Wan Yiniang didn't understand. Wan Yiniang had always thought that if the daughter crawling out of her stomach was not a matter of identity, she would definitely not be worse than any other direct daughter in the Shen residence. Shen Dongling looked cowardly and timid from the outside, but she was very planned in everything she did. Although I had heard Shen Dongling say that Shen Yue's marriage was an opportunity, Concubine Wan never expected such a situation. Wan Yiniang believed that as long as Shen Dongling was not stupid, she would never use such a rude method to exchange her parents. After all, in this way, Shen Dongling would have no place to stand in the Wang family or the Shen family!
Originally, she expected that Shen Yue, who was looking at the gentleman, would say a word or two for Shen Dongling, but she didn't expect that Shen Yue's face changed faster than she turned a book. As soon as she heard Wan Yiniang speak, Shen Yue cried and said: "Wan Yiniang, I really don't know what's going on. The third sister said that I was going to leave the house, and the sisters had a toast to me before parting, and I drank it. When I woke up again, it was already the next morning. I also believe that the third sister didn't do it on purpose... But how did it become like this, I really don't know!"
On the surface, what Shen Yue said was to believe in Shen Dongling, but there was no trace of what she said inside or outside of her words. She said that she was calculated by Shen Dongling, which undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. Sure enough, when Chen Rouqiu and Shen Wan heard the words, their expressions became even gloomier. Shen Gui also frowned. Seeing everyone standing on Shen Yue's side, Concubine Wan couldn't help but flash a hint of despair in her heart.
"The most urgent task is to think about how to solve it first." Chang Zaiqing said softly. She is not from the Shen residence, and it is not easy to tell what she said before. At this moment, she reminds everyone that the bride has changed, so how to explain to the Wang family? Send Shen Dongling back? Or simply send Shen Dongling to Zhuangzi to spend the rest of his life? Anyway, Shen Dongling was just a concubine, so she could pass away no matter what, and the most important thing was not to make the Wang family unhappy.
Mrs. Shen made a decisive decision: "Let's discuss this matter with the Wang family first, and have them send the three girls back. What kind of things are taught by Wan Yiniang, needless to say, keep Wan Yiniang in the firewood room. , I did something wrong with my own birth, and the mother deserves to be taught a lesson!"
Shen Yue became anxious when she heard it. She didn't expect that she would be able to send Shen Dongling back. If Shen Dongling was sent back, wouldn't she have to be sent to the Wang family. So it's just a waste of time to do everything possible? How does this work
Chen Rouqiu and Shen Wan were satisfied with the words of Old Shen Furen, Chen Rou Qiu glanced at Wan Yiniang and felt even more resentment in her heart. Just thinking that in the future, I must torture Wan Yiniang, whether it is sold or sold as a slave or a maid, it is always an annoying thing.
When Wan Yiniang heard this, her eyes darkened, she had to know to send Shen Dongling back... She had already been married once, and Shen Dongling was a concubine again. The Shen family would definitely choose to protect Shen Yue and sacrifice Shen Dongling. Ruined!
Just as I was thinking, there was a servant outside to report, and there was someone from the Wang family.
