The wife of the power minister's family

"Who, who is related to that woman's death! Everyone in the capital knows how that woman died!"

Chen Xi immediately felt like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, with a complicated expression of fear and disgust on his face.

Shen Zhiyi beside her also immediately said: "Yes, you...who are you? Don't talk nonsense!"

Several other women looked at Xu Jing in confusion, because of her words and because of her person.

Mrs. Zhao reacted first, and took a deep look at Xu Jing. Then she glared at Chen Xi and Shen Zhiyi with deep hatred and said, "Shut up, you two. You are the least qualified to say anything in the world." The people who took care of Zhenniang are you, Chen Xi, and your followers!"

After saying that, she looked at Xu Jing and introduced to Liu Fuyue and Guo Liuyun beside her: "This is Dr. Xu who has been treating me during this period. Dr. Xu's medical skills are very good. I brought her here this time. for……"

As she said that, she was stunned, as if she finally remembered why she brought Xu Jing here, her face suddenly darkened, "How did you get here? I heard from Xiao Tao that Mrs. Yu was dying and wanted to see me before she died. , asked me something, so I didn’t think about anything and got on the carriage Xiaotao came over."

Xiao Tao is the maid next to Mrs. Yu.

Xiao Tao said that she had to inform others, so she didn't come with them.

Liu Fuyue and Guo Liuyun looked at each other, and Liu Fuyue said, "We won't hide it from you now. During this period, Liu Yun and I have been rushing to make the birthday gift for Brother Gu. I'm here I am making a small coat, and Liu Yun is making matching hats and shoes. Because my little coat is still a little bit unfinished, Liu Yun came to my house today to help me. After finishing it, the two of us came together We set off to Song Mansion, and therefore, we set off later than others.

When the carriage was halfway along, Peony, the maid next to Mrs. Yu, suddenly stopped us. She told us that Mrs. Yu was dying and she wanted us to go and see her. We were shocked, but we had originally I thought I would go to the Song Mansion to talk to you about this first, and then go see Mrs. Yu together. Unexpectedly, when Mudan was talking to me, several guards who came with her suddenly came forward and stunned us. "

When they woke up again, they would be here.

Mrs. Zhao's face became darker and darker.

As keen as she is, she has noticed that something is very wrong with the current situation.

Xu Jing glanced at Liu Fuyue and asked, "Did you have any guards around you at that time?"

Liu Fuyue was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "Of course there are, but because Liu Yun and I set off late, the majority of the troops had already gone to the Song Mansion, and there were only four guards around Liu Yun and me."

Xu Jing nodded, looked at Chen Xi and Shen Zhiyi, who had livid faces on the side, and said, "What about you? Were you deceived in this way?"

Because Xu Jing asked so naturally, Chen Xi and Shen Zhiyi didn't realize that it seemed something was wrong for her to ask this question. Chen Xi's face darkened because he thought of something, and said: "No one told me about Mrs. Yu at all. I was attending a banquet in the Song Mansion, but I just went to a hut, and someone knocked me out and brought me here!"

And Shen Zhiyi was just the daughter of a fifth-rank official in Xijing, and she was not qualified to be invited to the Song Mansion for a banquet.

According to her, she was brought here by someone who was unconscious when she was going out.

At this moment, everyone knew that they were all captured here. For a moment, a silence filled with uneasiness and fear filled the room.

Guo Liuyun was a little timid and couldn't help but cry, "How could this happen! The thief who kidnapped us was so brave! Didn't he know our identities? He didn't know how many of our families Seeing in his eyes, Shaohua is not something he can touch! When the Zhao family and the Song family know that Shaohua is missing, they will definitely mobilize the whole city to search for him. It will only be a matter of time before he is found here!"

Judging from their conversation just now, Zhao Shaohua is undoubtedly the most prominent of these people. Even Chen Xi and Shen Zhiyi clearly don't like Zhao Shaohua, and they don't dare to be rude to her.

At this time, Xu Jing said quietly: "It seems that we are not the only ones who have been kidnapped. I see that there are still people in the dormitory."

Several people were now like frightened birds. They immediately turned around with horror on their faces and stared at the bedroom separated by the bead curtain.At this moment, a weak voice came from the dormitory, "You...who are you? Where are you?"

Judging from the sound, the person inside had just woken up.

Zhao Shaohua was more courageous. He walked forward and opened the bead curtain. When she saw the person inside clearly, she was slightly startled, "Mrs. Xu, have you been arrested too? No matter what, come out and speak."

There are few people in the circle of noble ladies in Xijing who do not know Zhao Shaohua, so what Zhao Shaohua says has a certain weight.

Soon, the people in the dormitory came out. When she saw the beautiful woman wearing a pink-blue breast-length skirt, Xu Jing's heart skipped a beat, and her lips behind the veil raised a wry smile.

It's really a narrow road for enemies.

Just now when she heard Zhao Shaohua calling the woman inside "Mrs. Xu", Xu Jing had a bad premonition.

At this moment, her premonition came true - Mrs. Xu was the eldest sister of the original owner, Xu Ya, the daughter of the Wen family who came to power after the death of the original owner.

Ironically, she was born a year earlier than the original owner.

In Dachu etiquette, in principle, it is not allowed to make a concubine into a wife, but there is some flexibility in it. For example, when a man's wife does not give birth to a son for him, and the eldest son comes from the concubine's belly, and the concubine is innocent, After the man's wife dies, he can make his concubine his wife.

However, strictly speaking, this is an illegal operation after all. Only some low-level officials or businessmen in Dachu would do this, and some big families who pay attention to etiquette strictly prohibit it.

So, why is that woman said to be the true love of the original owner?In fact, the Wen family is not bad. The Wen family is also a scholarly family in Bianzhou. The Wen family and the original owner's father grew up together. However, the original owner's father is ambitious. He knows that as a bastard, no matter how talented he is, , the family would not do their best to support him, so they set their sights on the Xu family, one of the most wealthy businessmen in Bianzhou.

Wen was also tolerant, and was willing to commit herself as a concubine in order to fulfill the original father's ambition. When the original father needed to rely on the Xu family's financial resources, she kept a low profile at home until the original father established himself in the officialdom. Heeled, and then gradually revealed his true face.

Her son, the eldest son of the original father, was born after the original father took advantage of the Xu family.

If Xu Ya hadn't been pregnant before the original mistress married the original mistress' father, Mrs. Wen would probably have endured not having children until the day when she could feel proud.

Back then, Mrs. Wen had humbled herself in front of her original mistress and owner at home, and even Xu Ya could not hold her head up. For Xu Ya, who had always been proud and arrogant, this was the most unbearable memory in her life.

Therefore, after the original mistress passed away, she was one of the people in the family who hated the original mistress the most.

Xu Jing looked quietly at the woman not far away who had a beautiful face but a weak and pitiful expression.

She remembered that the original owner and the hairpin queen were urgently called back to Xijing in order to take over a marriage that Xu Ya did not want.

At that time, Wu Youbing, the eldest son of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion, came to the Xu family to propose marriage. The original owner's father did not want to miss the opportunity to get married to the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion, but Xu Ya was unwilling to marry. Only then did he think of the original owner who had been neglected for many years.

Although the marriage between the original owner and Wu Sanlang failed, Xu Ya did not marry Wu Sanlang either.

Because at that time, she had already climbed to a higher branch - Jiulang, Wang Yandong, the direct descendant of the Wang family.
