Smuggling Daming

Chapter 226 The Past of the Bai Sisters

"I don't know!" Regarding Zhou Zhong's question, Bai Mengwan also shook her head and said, "At that time, Wang Rui, no, he should be called Zhang Rui. My sister and I always thought that he was dead, but we didn't expect that that day he suddenly brought me Zhang Rui. He returned to Nanjing with a team of royal guards, probably because he didn't want others to know that he became a eunuch, so this matter was known to many people, and after returning to Nanjing, he immediately returned to our White Mansion, and said that he would Take my sister to the capital..."

What Bai Mengwan said next about Zhang Rui was even more bizarre, even if he didn't believe that Bai Mengwan would not lie to him, I am afraid that Zhou Zhong really couldn't believe that these things turned out to be true.

When Bai Junwan first saw Zhang Rui coming home, she was very pleasantly surprised for a moment. After all, when they parted at the beginning, they were still a newly married couple, and they had a very good relationship. Bai Junwan thought that her husband-in-law was long gone, but I didn't expect to see him return safely today, so I wept with joy for a while.

But before Bai Junwan was happy for too long, she soon noticed that her husband was wearing an inner dress that could only be worn by a eunuch, and he was also carrying a lot of royal guards behind him. The smile on his face was gone, replaced by It's a cold and ruthless face.

What Zhang Rui said next also shattered Bai Junwan's last sliver of hope. The other party told her clearly that he castrated himself into the palace because of some things, and now he works under the eunuch Zhang Yong, the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse supervisor. In the entire capital, except for a few Except for some people, no one dared to provoke Zhang Rui, and the reason why he came back this time was to take Bai Junwan to Beijing, and the two would still be called husband and wife.Anyway, it is nothing new for eunuchs in Beijing to marry wives and concubines.And in order to prevent Bai Junwan from escaping, the Jinyiwei brought by Zhang Rui immediately took over the entire Baifu, and all the guards in the original mansion were driven away.

Bai Junwan never imagined that although the husband she had been waiting for came back, he became a eunuch, and he would take her to Beijing to continue to be a husband and wife. To her, this was simply unbelievable, even from that moment on.Bai Junwan's desire to die has sprouted in her heart. Although she is a weak woman, she will never marry a eunuch no matter what!

However, Bai Junwan's desire to die did not persist for too long. When she returned to the inner house in a daze, she woke up suddenly when she saw her daughter Qingqing who had just turned three years old.Thinking that if she died, what would Qingqing do?Although Zhang Rui is Qingqing's father, this man has become neither a human nor a ghost, and no matter what, he cannot give his daughter to him.

It was also because of thinking of her daughter that Bai Junwan cheered up, and she pulled herself together to think about the current situation.Although she didn't know why Zhang Rui became like this, she was smart and quickly thought of it.Zhang Rui is already an eunuch. When he came back, he probably didn't just want to take him into Beijing to continue to be a husband and wife, but he might want to take the opportunity to annex their Bai family's property. With Zhang Rui's current power, she, a weak woman, would fight anyway But the opponent's.

Thinking of this, Bai Junwan quickly made a decision, that is to pretend to obey Zhang Rui first.She can even give the entire Bai family's property to the other party, and wait until Zhang Rui relaxes his vigilance.She escaped with her younger sister and daughter again, no matter where she escaped to, she would never continue to be husband and wife with Zhang Rui anyway.

I have to say that Bai Junwan has become more mature and stronger after several major changes. Her obedience really made Zhang Rui very happy, and she also loves her daughter Qingqing very much. After all, he is already a eunuch. It is impossible to have any more children, so Qingqing is his only offspring.

In fact, as Bai Junwan expected, Zhang Rui immediately began to snatch the property of the White Mansion after returning to the White Mansion, and Zhang Rui also used his power to make the local officials in Nanjing dare not take care of him. Moreover, Bai Mengwan is just a weak woman, it is impossible to compete with Zhang Rui, and in the end she simply gave all her family property to the other party.

After Zhang Rui got the property of the Bai family, he immediately began to sell it. After all, although the Bai family has many properties, most of them are fixed land and shops, and Zhang Rui can't stay in Nanjing forever, so it's better to sell them. Change it into silver and take it back.

Taking advantage of the period when Zhang Rui sold the Bai family's property, Bai Junwan usually greeted him with care, acting like when he was just married. Although Zhang Rui felt that Bai Junwan's behavior was a bit unreasonable, since he became a eunuch, his psychological He was already different from ordinary people, and his longing for home was extremely strong, so he gradually relaxed his vigilance towards Bai Mengwan, and the guards relaxed a lot.

After seeing that Zhang Rui had relaxed his vigilance, it happened that Qingqing's birthday was coming up. That day, Bai Junwan had someone cook a sumptuous banquet, and then invited Zhang Rui to celebrate Qingqing's birthday.Zhang Rui was also very happy about this, and couldn't help drinking a few more glasses that day, but after Zhang Rui got drunk, he said something even more shameless. After knowing this, Bai Junwan wanted to kill Zhang Rui on the spot sharp.

It turned out that Zhang Rui made a slip of the tongue after drinking. He told Bai Junwan in a drunken manner that this time he came back to seize the property of the Bai family and use the money to pave the way for himself in the palace. He also had another purpose, which was to trick Bai Junwan into the capital, and Taking the opportunity to send her into Emperor Zhengde's leopard room, he wanted to win Zhengde's favor.

After all, the entire Ming dynasty knows that the present son of the Ming Dynasty does not like girls, but prefers young women who have given birth to children. With Bai Junwan's appearance and talent, if he is sent to the palace, Emperor Zhengde will definitely love him very much. It can also be used to attract the attention of Emperor Zhengde, and in addition, he will fawn on Zhang Yong in the palace, and it will be easy to get ahead in the palace by then.

Hearing Zhang Rui's words that these beasts are inferior, Bai Jun's whole body trembled angrily. It was the first time she met such a shameless person at such a young age. For her own future, she actually gave her wife to others.Bai Mengwan was also there at the time, and she also wished to hack Zhang Rui to death immediately.

However, after Bai Junwan calmed down, she could only blame herself for being blind at the beginning and choosing a beast like Zhang Rui as her husband-in-law, and now is not the time to kill people to relieve hatred, the most important thing is to find a way to escape.

When Bai Junwan pretended to be obedient to Zhang Rui, she was actually preparing to escape, and today was a good opportunity, so the two sisters Bai Junwan immediately changed into men's clothes, and brought Qingqing to the back garden, where the small river in the garden and the outside world It is similar, there was originally a fence at the wall to prevent others from entering the garden from the river, but some time ago, the rain was too heavy, and the river washed away the fence. Chased away.

After the Bai sisters escaped from the White Mansion through the water, they waited until dawn when the city gate opened, and the two immediately fled out of Nanjing City, and then hid in Tibet all the way, and on the way, they were almost caught by Zhang Rui's men several times The most dangerous time was that they lived in the same inn with the captives. In the end, the two of them fled overnight again, and they were not found.

It is also because they are worried about the pursuit of Zhang Rui and those people, and Zhang Rui is also a eunuch in the palace. In the name of working for the emperor, it can be said that he has great power. No matter where the sisters escape, as long as they are still in Daming territory, Then it might be discovered.So in the end, Bai Junwan and Bai Mengwan discussed and decided to go overseas. After all, Bai Junwan had read in the book that every time the Central Plains was in war, many people went to sea by boat, or went to Japan or Nanyang, so they I also want to learn from the predecessors and escape from Daming, so that I no longer have to worry about Zhang Rui finding them.

When she said this, Bai Mengwan gritted her teeth again and said: "This beast Zhang Rui not only ruined my sister's life, but also sent my sister to that ridiculous emperor. I hate that I am not a man, otherwise I will risk my life. I want to avenge my sister too!"

I saw that Zhou Zhong was silent for a while after listening to it. According to what Bai Mengwan said, when Zhang Rui and Bai Junwan first got married, everything was good. His daughter married him, but after going to Beijing to rush for the exam and disappearing for a few years, when she reappeared, she seemed to be a completely changed person.

There are not many reasons that can cause a person's temperament to change drastically. At least Zhou Zhong only thinks of two possibilities. The first one is that Zhang Rui, like him, was transmigrated by another person, but this possibility is too small, and with the Judging from Zhang Rui's performance, he doesn't look like a time traveler, otherwise he wouldn't be a eunuch.

Another possibility is that Zhang Rui experienced something during this period, which caused him a serious blow, and even further distorted his character, and finally became what the Bai sisters saw, not only ruthless, but also without the slightest shame Heart, this guess is obviously more reliable than the first one.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhong raised his head and looked at Bai Mengwan who was still gnashing his teeth, and immediately comforted him: "Mengwan, don't think about revenge for now, now Zhang Rui has been promoted to the eunuch of the East Factory, although since Liu Jin's death, The arrogance of Dongchang was suppressed by Jin Yiwei, but it is still not something ordinary people can offend, so you can stay at home at ease during this time, and if there is a chance in the future, I will avenge this revenge for you sisters!"

Although Bai Mengwan knew that Zhou Zhong's words were mainly to comfort her, but hearing that he was willing to avenge their sisters, Bai Mengwan was also very moved, and immediately saluted deeply: "My lord is very kind, the little girl has nothing to repay." , I only hope that in this life I can serve the young master, and Mengwan will be satisfied."

Looking at Mengwan's holy face under the lamp, and listening to her true confession, Zhou Zhong also felt a little moved for a while, but thinking that he hadn't formally accepted her as a concubine, and also that the pregnant Jinxuan was waiting for him, so After comforting Meng Wan again, she turned and left.

What Zhou Zhong didn't expect was that just after he had breakfast the next morning, someone reported outside: Zhang Rui, the admiral of the East Factory, came to visit! (To be continued.
