Chapter 17 Lettering
It was impossible for Xie Lin to keep bowing his head and admit his mistake. He came to his senses and reprimanded sharply: "Now you are the one who stays out all night, don't talk about those old things. As a daughter-in-law, even if you are going back to your mother's house, you have to let me know in advance!"
Jiang Nan felt disgusted, and said coldly: "The prince of the county doesn't need to make excuses, if he wants to vent his anger on Li Shi, why not stick to the old rules!"
Nanling is rich in secret medicine, Xie Lin's old rule is to feed her a pill.
That medicine is not poison, but it can make people roll in pain, comparable to the pain of childbirth, as if they had died once.
"I came in a hurry, so I didn't bring it with me." Xie Lin's face was gloomy.
"It's also..." Jiang Nan smiled presumptuously, raised the end of her eyes slightly, and said with a sarcasm, "This is the Imperial Capital, you dare not!"
"...You!" Xie Lin was so angry that the veins on his forehead popped up, he clenched his fists and left with a flick of his sleeves.
*
Longshan Temple in the Imperial Capital is located halfway up Longshan Mountain, five miles outside the city.
The midsummer is scorching hot, the mountains are full of gloom, and the temperature in the mountains is slightly lower than that in Beijing. Jiang Nan felt a little cool when he came here in the early morning.
On this day, Mrs. Wei Jungong burned incense and kowtowed here.
Duke Wei's ancestors fought all the year round and had to bear too many murders. Mrs. Wei Jungong was very obsessed with the theory of ghosts and gods. Whenever there was any headache in the mansion, or weddings and funerals, Mrs. Wei Jungong would come to the temple to fast for a few days.
In the Zen room, incense curls up.
Mrs. Wei Jungong pulled Jiang Nan, and said with a teasing smile: "As soon as you enter Beijing, you should come to visit my house as soon as possible, and wait for me to invite you. What a pretension! Could it be that your Shulang won the Empress Empress? In the eyes of you, you can't look down on my Duke Wei's mansion?"
"What did Madam say? Yulong, the Duke of Wei, I don't even have time to curry favor with you!" Jiang Nan squinted her eyes and smiled charmingly.
Three years ago, Duke Wei was stationed at Nantai Military Mansion. Both husband and wife lived in Nantai, only fifty miles away from Nanling, so they often walked around.
A year ago, Duke Wei was transferred back to the Imperial Capital. Even though the two were a generation apart in age, Mrs. Duke Wei often sent letters, which showed her love for Jiang Nan.
"Nanling, you are not familiar with the place of life, so you can't do everything well! This time you stay in the imperial capital for a while, take this opportunity to clean up that little bitch Li, and let her know how powerful you are as a mistress!"
Because they are both the first wives, Mrs. Wei Jungong despises Xie Lin who spoils and destroys concubines in every possible way, so she feels very sorry for Jiang Nan.
"In Imperial Capital, they have indeed restrained themselves a lot."
"I know you are generous and kind, but if you lose the prestige of the mistress, any cat or dog will dare to run wild on your head!"
The two were chatting, when the door "squeaked", someone pushed the door and entered, and the maid led the girl in a goose-yellow skirt and walked in slowly.
When the girl saw Jiang Nan who was sitting and drinking tea, she froze in place on the spot and lost her manners.
"What are you doing stupidly? You haven't come here to meet the princess of the county, don't you know your own sister?" Mrs. Wei Jungong looked contemptuously and turned her head away.
Jiang Ying obviously had no preparations, she looked extremely flustered, she moved to Jiang Nan's side, and shouted earnestly: "Sister, why are you here?"
Jiang Nan hummed lightly, frowned, and looked at the tea foam in the teacup lazily, up and down.
Would rather look at tea foam than people, this is extremely rude behavior.
"Of course I invited you here!" Mrs. Wei Jun's eyes lingered between the two sisters, and she understood, and told Jiang Ying, "Okay, you don't need to serve here, you go down and copy the scriptures first!"
Inside and outside the words, the attitude towards Jiang Ying is no different from that of the servants.
After the people left, Mrs. Wei Jungong asked Jiang Nan: "I have always known that the inner courtyard of the back house is not peaceful. Even if it is sent under the name of the aunt, she is a concubine after all. There must be many reasons for your sisters' discord, right?"
Mrs. Duke Wei lured her to explain, but Jiang Nan just gave a wry smile: "My parents reconciled in the early years, I grew up not in Jiang's family, and Jiang Ying never called my sister. Today, she doesn't seem to be calling me. I feel really uncomfortable!"
It seemed that she didn't say anything clearly, and she seemed to have said everything, and Mrs. Wei Jungong's face became a little darker.
Jiang Taiwei is a big official, but has no real power. The Duke of Wei holds the real power, and his eldest son is the captain of the Nantai Military Mansion at a young age. This kind of family background is not considered prominent in the imperial capital, but everyone must be courteous when they meet three points.
This time, the second son, Wei Ze, was discussing marriage. Some kind of demon possessed him, but he fell in love with Jiang Ying, and she refused to marry Fei Qing.
Jiang Ying hooked up first, Wei Ze, an inexperienced scholar, how could he stand such sugar-coated bullets?
In Sheng Ning's words, a fool deserves a bedbug, if you love me, I will.
After the fast meal, they went back to the meditation room to have a rest. Jiang Nan made a pot of tea and sat by the window. The wind gently brushed the window lattice, the flowing water was gurgling, and there were occasional cicadas and birds singing.
The door of the room was kicked open, Ding Dong couldn't stop Jiang Ying, with a bitter face: "Prince Princess..."
Jiang Nan waved Ding Dong down, Jiang Ying strode forward and asked, "Jiang Nan, what do you mean? What did you say about me in front of the county princess?"
"Sister, don't wrong me, I didn't say anything!" Jiang Nan's tone was full of innocence, but there was a triumphant smile on his face.
Mrs. Wei Jungong looked down on Jiang Ying at first, Wei Ze insisted on marrying her, but Mrs. Wei Jungong couldn't hold back her son and refused in every possible way.
Jiang Nan was just playing tricks on the horoscope. When Madam Wei heard that Jiang Ying's heir was difficult and easy to cause trouble, she found an excuse and refused to eat the fast food, so she let her go home.
Jiang Ying felt restless all morning, knowing that she was no match for Jiang Nan, so she changed her tone and begged, "Sister, you have such a good relationship with the Duke and Madam, we are sisters, for father's sake, Say something nice for me, okay?"
"It's not impossible!" Jiang Nan brewed a cup of tea for Jiang Ying, but Jiang Ying didn't dare to take it. She tore off her skirt indifferently, revealing her clean shoulders, with hideous scars crawling on her back shoulders.
"Then tell me, how did I get this injury on my body?"
Scars of different sizes were all over the tender white flesh, and the blood characters could not be seen clearly, more like scalded scars, ugly and terrifying.
Obviously one of the perpetrators, Jiang Ying covered her mouth in horror.
"I... how do I know?" Jiang Ying's legs were weak, and she almost couldn't stand up.
"But I saw in my dream that it was you who carved words on my body with a knife. It hurt me so much! We are sisters, how could you bear to carve so many knives on my body?" Xiang Jiang Ying suddenly slapped Jiang Ying hard on the face.
Jiang Ying was beaten and fell to the ground, her face turned pale with fright, she got up from the ground, knelt down in a hurry, pulled Jiang Nan's dress, and cried, "I was forced, I only carved one word, really Yes, I am very light. You don’t seem to have left any scars where I engraved. If I didn’t engrave, Jiang Yuan would engrave on me! I have no choice! You don’t remember, Jiang Yuan engraved the most !"
