Demon branches and jade leaves

Chapter 3 Sword Poetry Banquet

Being reprimanded on the spot was a trivial matter, but more importantly, after the incident, the wife, Mrs. Lu, privately tied her mother to a remote woodshed.

The wife, Lu Shi, was jealous and cut off her mother's tongue with a knife, making her unable to speak for the rest of her life, and even cut off her mother's right tendon.

In the previous life, after the mother was severely injured by this, she washed her face in tears all day, and died in depression, and she died without seeing Marquis Wuwen for the last time.

Jiang Louyue sucked in a breath of cold air and ran away, rushing out of the door.

"Hey? Miss Qi, where are you going? You haven't dressed up yet, how can you go out like this?"

The maid Liu Xu put down the copper basin filled with hot water and chased out anxiously.

Grooming?

Jiang Louyue sneered inwardly as she hurriedly ran towards the Peony Pavilion where the Sword Poetry Banquet was held.

Where does she have the time to dress up? !

At this moment, Jiang Louyue has only one thought in her heart, no matter what, she must stop her mother.

Jiang Louyue walked through the pavilions and pavilions and ran for a full quarter of an hour before arriving at the Peony Garden where the Sword Poetry Banquet was being held.

"Bold!"

A majestic female voice sounded in the Peony Garden, and the voice was full of strong hostility. It was the wife, Mrs. Lu.

"You have left one thing, the name is Acacia, this thing is a disease, and the disease cannot be cured. If you are pitiful, please give me a stay." The wife, Lu Shi, was dressed in a jeweled purple-red dress with a rebellious expression, "Yin Xi, you are Wu Wen. Hou's concubine, to have the audacity to compose poems like this at the Sword Poetry Banquet, publicize prostitution in public, and demand love from Lord Hou, is simply shameless!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was silent.

Even among the dozen or so marquis, dukes, and viscounts who came to the Sword Poetry Banquet, none of them dared to disobey the Lu family.

There is no reason for this. The wife of the Marquis of Wuwen, Lu Linlang, is the younger sister of Prince Lu, and her status is much more prominent than anyone present.

Jiang Louyue, dressed in white, was stunned, standing behind a peony, her eyes widened, watching this scene in disbelief.

In the end... still not able to.

Her face was pale, and she saw Yinxi weeping with her own eyes, knelt on the cold ground, and repeatedly kowtowed to Mr. Lu.

"My concubine is wrong, madam, I will never dare again in the future."

The mother is a peerless beauty. She was famous in Kyoto at the age of 15, and left the brothel to marry her father at the age of 16. Now she is only 28 years old, she looks about 20 years old, and she is well maintained.

Mr. Lu snorted coldly, indifferent and mean, looked at Marquis Wu Wen, and said in a pretentious manner, "Master Hou, what do you think?"

Marquis Wu Wen's face turned pale, looking at the crying concubine who was kneeling on the ground with pear blossoms and rain, suppressing the unbearableness in his heart, he sighed softly, and said, "Madam, you can handle it as you see fit, you are the wife. "

Yin Xi raised her head suddenly, her beautiful eyes filled with begging, and said, "Master Hou, please, don't—"

Lu's viciousness is notorious.

Marquis Wu Wen turned his head slightly, did not dare to meet Yinxi's eyes, sighed again, stretched out a hand, and waved it.

Despair flashed across Yinxi's eyes.

Several servants came over, dragged her mother by the arm, and forcibly dragged her down.

The first wife, Mrs. Lu, blessed the many marquis, dukes, and viscounts, and said: "Everything is because of the poor discipline of the concubine, which has disturbed a few adults. There are many interesting programs at the Jianshi Banquet, and I also ask a few adults not to It's good to be spoiled."

All the princes and nobles were all smiles and echoed a few words to the Lu family.

The corner of Lu's eyes flashed a smug look, and she left Jian Shiyan and walked in the direction of her concubine Yinxi's being dragged away.

Jiang Louyue's heart "squeaked".

I'm going to the firewood house in the side hall of the West Garden!

She turned her head, ran her legs, and went straight to her destination.

Jiang Louyue gritted her teeth and clenched her small fists tightly, her fingernails digging into her flesh without knowing it, and her expression was very serious.

Be sure to catch up!

Since he couldn't stop his mother from reciting poetry in public, and even less able to defend his mother as a concubine, he could only dare to go to the firewood house in the West Garden to stop Lu's evil deeds.

It was late autumn, and the cool breeze was bleak.

Jiang Louyue was still wearing that white nightgown, and the cold wind poured into the robe, and her body was numb from the cold.

Along the way, all the maids and wives of the Marquis of Wuwen, seeing the running figure of Jiang Louyue, all whispered, accusing him of misbehavior and embarrassing the Marquis.

But Jiang Louyue didn't have the time to manage these things. In her previous life, she might have cared about what others said about her, but in this life, she will never care about those meaningless things.

The mouth grows on others, you can say whatever you like, she Jiang Louyue just needs to be herself.

Finally, arrived at the West Park.

Jiang Louyue held the full moon-shaped Shimen, pressing one hand on his chest, panting for breath.

It's hard work, no, this body is too bad.

It seems that in the future, we must do more conditioning and practice martial arts more often.

Jiang Louyue calmed down, adjusted her breathing, bent over, the cat entered the West Garden, and touched the firewood room through the back door.

At this moment, Yinxi was sitting on the icy ground, bound with hemp ropes, unable to move for half a minute.

The main entrance of the firewood house was guarded by someone from the Lu family.

The reason why Jiang Louyue knew about the hidden little back door of the chaifang was also because in her previous life, when she was about 16 years old, she once offended Mrs. Lu and was locked in. At that time, the maid Liu Xu got through that little back door. Come in and secretly deliver food to her.

"mother--"

Jiang Louyue lowered her voice, and from under the table, the cat crawled behind her mother.

Yinxi was stunned, turned her head, and when she saw Jiang Louyue hiding under the table behind her, her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief, a look of horror crossed her face, and a "woohoo" sound came from her mouth.

"Shh—" Jiang Louyue hurriedly stretched out a hand, put it on his lips, made a silent gesture, lowered his voice as much as possible, and said, "Mother, don't make a sound, I'm here. save you."

With that said, Jiang Louyue took out a hatchet from her sleeve, which she had just touched from the firewood pile at the back door of the firewood house.

The hatchet was dull, and there was mottled rust on the blade.

But even so, Jiang Louyue insisted on grinding hard, and in the end cut four-fifths of the thick hemp rope that bound her mother.

Just a little bit, Jiang Louyue meditated silently in her heart.

"Is that bitch locked in there?"

At this moment, the voice of an extremely dignified 35-year-old woman came from outside the woodshed door.

Jiang Louyue hurriedly put away the hatchet, got back under the table, and covered his body with the pyre.She knew in her heart that it was his wife, Mrs. Lu, who was here.
