Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 156 Shi Conghu Returns

No matter how many sins Yang Lianxiang committed during his lifetime, Shi Yiqing took the place of the fainted Shi Xuanxin and stayed in the mourning hall for three days. , and found out all the sins Yang Lianxiang committed before.

Ever since Yang Lianxiang came in, he first put a small amount of medicine in Aunt Yu's food, and slowly put her to death. Later, she wanted to use the same method to deal with Aunt Xiao, and almost exposed her means. In the end, she had to use the doctor's hand to let her Inducing childbirth, Shi Yiqing, who was born in February, was dubbed a disaster star.When Shi Yiqing grew up, I was afraid that she would establish a foothold in the Shi family and send her out of the house. I originally planned not to pick her back for the rest of my life, but I never thought that things would change a lot. In the end, Shi Yiqing not only returned to the Shi family, but also allowed Aunt Xiao to be favored by Shi Jingran again. , this is something Yang Lianxiang can't tolerate, and this is the reason why Aunt Xiao is unclean.

On the third night of Yang Lianxiang's burial, Shi Yiqing was kneeling upright, and the wind blew the curtains and flew over her head, rustling.Shi Yiqing stared coldly at the tablet above, grabbed some ghost papers and burned them in the copper basin in front of him.

The surroundings were cold, and the darkness swept in, swallowing up the last ray of light in front of him, and the eerie terror oppressed him, Shi Yiqing's face was as usual.

Shi Yiqing watched the ghost paper gradually being swallowed by the fire and turned into black spots, curled his lips and sneered, and said, "Mother, I didn't break my promise, I finally brought Yang Lianxiang to you. Have you seen her? If you see her Now, say hello to her for me, and tell her by the way that her daughter misses her very much, and I think it won't be long before I see you."

A figure flashed out of the corner of his eyes, Shi Yiqing got up and moved his numb legs, and said in a cold voice: "Yang Lianxiang, you have committed so many evils and done so many things, and now you are dead, you are finally dead. I don't know Is the taste of hell so good? Will your old friends and my father's concubines chase after you and ask you for your life? Will the ancestors of the Shi family forgive you for repeatedly poisoning them? A vicious woman with descendants?!"

"Stop it! Stop it! Shut up!" Shi Xuanxin staggered towards Shi Yiqing with a hideous face that should have been stunning, "You have no right to say that about my mother! You have no right! "

Shi Yiqing grinned grimly: "I'm not qualified? I'm not qualified?! Yang Lianxiang killed my mother, and caused me to bear the name of disaster star for more than ten years. Don’t come down! You say I’m not qualified? Then who is qualified? Aunt Yu who was killed by your mother, or those girls who died under her wooden stick?!”

Shi Xuanxin turned pale, stumbled and fell to the ground, crying with tears streaming down his face.

Shi Yiqing turned around and left the mourning hall with a blank expression, and said to the servants guarding the door, "I think she has a lot to talk about and wants to talk to her mother alone. I think we should all go down, so there is no need to keep guards here." .”

Before her first seven days, the Shi family deliberately and quietly sent her back to the ancestral grave for burial. After hearing the news, the Yang family came to find her and made a big fuss. In order to explain, the Shi family had no choice but to take out Gao Nai who was beside Yang Lianxiang, and explained it clearly in front of the Yang family.

Everyone in the Yang family knew Nanny Gao, who was Yang Lianxiang's confidant. Hearing what she said, she said it so clearly, knowing that these things were almost inseparable, I believed them eight out of ten.Believe it or not, the Yang family still can't allow the Shi family to do this. If they admit it, they don't need others to spread rumors. Everyone will say that the Shi family's third wife, the Yang family, has a lack of virtue, so he can't die well, and even more so. He pointed and said, look, Shi's family didn't even beat a drum, and they were sent directly to the ancestral grave for burial.

Jian Shi, who was in charge, had never experienced this kind of thing, and wanted to discuss it with the old lady, but when the old lady heard that it was a matter of the Yang family, she avoided it, and wanted to go to the eldest lady, but the eldest lady excused that she was ill.I had no choice but to bite the bullet and talk to the second wife, the second wife drove her out with a cold face, she had no choice but to agree to the Yang family's request, beat the gongs and drums, and sent her to the ancestral grave for burial.

Ten days after Yang Lianxiang was buried, Shi Conghu, who hurried to the capital after hearing the news, stepped into the door of Shi's house.As soon as I entered the house, I saw banners hanging everywhere, and when I looked up, it was all plain white. I couldn't help but feel a sinking heart, knowing that this was a bad thing.

When he was told that Yang Lianxiang had passed away and had been in the ancestral grave for many days now, Shi Conghu felt sad from his heart and knelt in front of the gate of Tangli Courtyard, crying loudly, causing the old lady to shed tears along with her.

Because the old lady didn't want to tell Shi Conghu about Yang Lianxiang's deeds, Zhu Xi gave everyone the order to hide it from Shi Conghu who was full of doubts, so no one dared to tell the truth.

Seeing that the Shi family kept silent about what happened before and after Yang Lianxiang's illness and death, Shi Conghu felt more and more that someone had harmed Yang Lianxiang, which led to Yang Lianxiang's sudden death.

On the fifth day of returning home to perform filial piety, Shi Conghu went to Shi Xuanxin's Qionghua Pavilion to ask the truth: "Sister, tell me why my mother passed away suddenly? The letter you gave me was just It is said that something important happened in the family, and someone wanted to harm my mother, so let me come back as soon as possible! It has only been a dozen days, and my mother is doing well, how could she suddenly die of a serious illness?"

On Shi Xuanxin's stunning and unparalleled face, a pair of cold eyes stared at Shi Conghu, and said in a hoarse voice: "If I tell my brother everything, will my brother make the decision for my mother?"

After Shi Yiqing coaxed Shi Congti to sleep, he tiptoed out of the main room, followed by Lian Ying, and said in a low voice: "Miss, the second young master really went to Qionghua Pavilion this morning, and the two of them talked for a long time As soon as he said that, the second young master went to the front yard angrily, and had a big fight with the master. The angry master took a whip and wanted to whip him, but the old lady stopped him. In the face of the old lady, she learned what Miss Six said, and the old lady directly scolded Miss Six as a disaster, and asked Zhu Xi to lock the Qionghua Pavilion, not allowing Miss Six to come out, let alone talking to the Second Young Master."

"That's the end of this matter?" Shi Yiqing raised his eyebrows, "According to the old lady's temper, I, my sixth sister, must be allowed to enter the Buddhist hall once."

"I heard from the girl below that the prince has mentioned Miss Six many times. The master was reluctant before, but now I'm afraid that he wants to send her to the prince as a concubine."

"It's ridiculous, the prince is not favored, and the father is still fawning on what to do with a daughter." Shi Yiqing muttered, "I see, the older he is, the more confused he is!"

Lian Ying didn't dare to respond, seeing that Shi Yiqing had no other orders, she retreated.

The violent wind and rain that lasted for several days finally stopped, and famines continued everywhere, and most of the capital was victims of disasters and refugees.The emperor intends to open a granary to release grain, but the grain hoarded in the mansion is not enough for everyone to have a meal of gruel, worrying about it.

It was at this time that Li Chi entered the Shi family's door. First, he wanted to win over the Shi family, and second, he wanted to raise some money and food. He used the excuse of solving the emperor's problems to buy people's hearts openly.

After an autumn rain, seeing that the winter cold was about to overwhelm the earth, Shi Yiqingwo waited in Ningxie Hall for his gift, and heard from Lian Ying that Shi Conghu intended to give Shi Xuanxin to Wei Wang Li Chi, Fearing that there would be too many dreams at night, he asked Shi Jingran to talk about it early in the morning. After weighing the pros and cons, Shi Jingran agreed.

Shi Yiqing stopped the silver needle on her fingertips, raised her eyes and looked at the sky thoughtfully: "Tell me, if Miss Six finds out about this matter, will a hole come out one day?"

Lian Ying followed Shi Yiqing's line of sight, then smiled comprehensibly, tightened the jacket around her body, turned and left the Ning Xie Hall.

Rumors and gossips that seemed fake and true broke through many chains and spread to the ears of Shi Xuanxin, who was detained by the old lady. He deliberately went to ask Shi Congnu for clarification, and spent money to bribe the guard's mother, and quietly left Baifangyuan , found Shi Conghu's study, and broke in.

Seeing that it was her, Shi Conghu couldn't help being surprised: "Why did you come out?"

"Brother, let me ask you, are you going to send me to Wei Wangfu? Are you going to take me as your vote, are you going to ruin my life?" Shi Xuanxin hissed at the top of his lungs "I'm your own sister, your only sister! How could you, how could you do this to me?"

Seeing that Shi Conghu didn't even deny it, Shi Xuanxin became more and more sure that the news he got was true. He stepped forward and tugged at Shi Conghu's sleeve, howling, "Brother! Are you trying to force me to death?"

Shi Conghu was taken aback by Shi Xuanxin's question at first, and missed the opportunity to deny it. Later, she saw that she would not believe any lies, so she confessed generously, waved her to the ground, and said in a cold voice: "Don't mess around, it's for your own good! For the good of the Shi family!"

Shi Xuanxin, who fell to the ground, sneered desperately: "I think, this is good for you! Don't look at me. I don't know. All of you, whether you are a father or a mother, or you are a guardian, you are all counting on getting money. I'm playing around with you as a pawn, whoever you tell me to marry, who will I marry?! I won't!"

Seeing that Shi Xuanxin was about to rush out the door, Shi Congxin was afraid that she would ruin the matter, and hurriedly strode forward and grabbed Shi Xuanxin's arm, gnashing his teeth and said: "Shi Xuanxin, you are enough! Now you grow up Now, it’s time to wake up and understand the world! You are the life of a nobleman, so you should marry into the royal family! When King Wei becomes emperor, with your appearance and skills, it will be no problem to become a queen at that time! Think for yourself Think about it!"

Pushing away the dazed Shi Xuanxin, Shi Conghu called Yinxiu, who was waiting outside, with eyes full of impatience: "Send Miss Six back to Qionghua Pavilion!"

Because Xiu saw that Shi Conghu was full of anger, lowered his eyebrows in fear, and helped the soft-handed Shi Xuanxin out of the study, he was about to go to Qionghua Pavilion.When he reached the visitor's platform, Shi Xuanxin came back to his senses, seeing that it was Yinxiu, he was taken aback for a moment, and then pushed her away in disgust, almost falling to the ground.

"Miss Six, be careful, it rained just yesterday, and the ground hasn't dried yet."

Shi Xuan adjusted his clothes, and looked at Yinxiu warily: "You, why are you here?"

Yin Xiupi smiled and said: "Miss, did you forget? The servant was appointed by the old lady to serve as the second young master's roommate. When the second young master returned home, there was no one to serve him. The old lady specially asked the servant to serve the young master."

After a pause, she turned her eyes and said with a sneer: "Actually, the servant heard what Miss Six said to the second young master just now. Although the servant is a lowly bastard, she is still a woman. If you have something to say, you might as well talk to the young lady. It's Miss Kuan Yikuan's heart."

Seeing Shi Xuanxin's disdainful face, Yinxiu smiled indifferently: "Actually, our women's life is just two words in the end, marrying. Marrying a bastard mung bean is also marrying, and marrying the grandson is also marrying." , all have the same fate and the same misery. The good thing is, Miss, you are so beautiful that even a woman like me loves you even more after seeing it. It's no wonder that His Royal Highness King Wei will do everything possible to want you to go there."

Shi Xuanxin interrupted coldly: "What exactly do you want to say?"

Yinxiu suppressed his smile, and said in a hoarse voice, "I want to do something good, to help a group of ladies."

"You want to help me?" Shi Xuanxin sneered again and again, "What can you help me?"

Yinxiu pointed to the end of the veranda along the visitor's platform, and said: "The wall over there has collapsed, and it can cover a distance of one person." Seeing that Shi Xuanxin was surprised, he said jokingly, "Don't look at the young lady's birth. In Shi's house, if any of the walls of Shi's house is broken, I'm afraid the young lady doesn't even know."

Shi Xuanxin looked at Yinxiu suspiciously: "Why did you help me? What good did you do for me?"

"I know Miss won't believe me. If I were Miss, I wouldn't believe that there will be pie in the sky." Yinxiu said with a wry smile, "But I sincerely want to help Miss. I do The sins I have committed are too great, I am afraid that I will not die well in the future, I want to accumulate some virtue, and hope that in the next life I will not go on this road again, and go back to today’s pain.”

Turning his eyes away from the pain on his face, Yinxiu smiled calmly and said, "Miss Six doesn't need to believe me, and I don't expect Miss Six to give me anything in return. I will tell Second Young Master and send you back to the Qionghua Pavilion, don't worry, I won't tell anyone about you leaving the Shi family."

After finishing speaking, Yinxiu turned around and followed the way he came to leave the guest stand.

Shi Xuanxin lowered his eyes and hesitated for a moment, seeing that there was no one around, he trotted along the veranda with his skirt up to the bottom of the wall that Yinxiu had mentioned, and saw that half of the place had really collapsed, barely allowing her to squeeze out.Walking around the wall and exiting Shi's house, it went smoothly unexpectedly. Shi Xuanxin looked at the unfamiliar streets around him in disbelief, and dared not go up to ask for directions, so he could only go to Yang's house according to his own memory. .

When Shi Xuanxin finally found the Yang family, he was ecstatic and wanted to break in. Seeing the vermilion door suddenly opened, Shi Conghu walked out of the Yang family with a dark face, and quickly dodged the big stone lion hiding in front of the door. Behind him, seeing the fourth master of the Yang family holding Shi Conghu's bay red horse with a smile on his face, he said, "Don't worry, as long as that girl Xin'er finds her, I will definitely send you back to Shi's family!"

Shi Conghu said with a cold face: "You must remember, that girl has a lot of eyes, and she will know what's going on when she sees something wrong with your eyes. You must hide her for me, and you don't need to send her here with great fanfare. If you leave the mansion privately, wouldn't that slap Wei Wang and the Shi family in the face?"

"Yes, yes," Master Yang Si, who was supposed to be an elder, nodded humblely and flatteringly, "As long as that girl comes, I will definitely detain you, and then send someone to report to the Shi family."

Seeing that what he said was thoughtful, Shi Conghu felt relieved, pulled the reins and headed towards Shi's house.

Shi Xuanxin huddled in the darkness in despair, and when the lanterns came on, she realized that her hands and feet were cold. Supporting her numb body, she staggered out from behind the big stone lion of the Yang family, looked up at the waning moon in the sky, and walked in two lines Tears fell down.

Is this her fate?Should she accept her fate?Should she obey?
No!She can't just accept her fate like this, she won't just accept her fate like this!
Shi Xuanxin wiped the tears on his cheeks with his backhand, and moved forward step by step while propping up his weak body, crossing half of the capital city, avoiding the attacks of wild cats scurrying around, and avoiding the victims staring at the victims in the darkness. After entering the imperial city, he knocked on the door of Prince Qi's mansion with all his strength.

"I'm the Shi family..." She couldn't tell her identity, "I, I'm the girl of Shi Conghu, the second young master of the Shi family. The young master wants me to meet His Royal Highness King Qi for something!"

Seeing that it was a girl, a beautiful girl, the guards at night helped her in and reported her to the manager.The manager didn't dare to delay, he knocked on the door of Li Can, King of Qi, and told his subordinates what he had reported, and then bowed his head and waited aside.

Li Can was confused and said: "I seldom interact with Shi Conghu, how could he have the recklessness to let a girl come to the door in the middle of the night?"

He couldn't figure it out, so he ordered the manager to ask her to bring it up, looked at it carefully by the candlelight, frowned, and said, "What do you young masters of the Shi family want from me, why do you have to come to the door so late?"

Shi Xuanxin pretended to be terrified and glanced at Li Can, then lowered his head again, and said softly: "My young master said that as long as the slaves come over, His Highness will understand everything."

Li Can frowned and looked at Shi Xuanxin suspiciously, waved his hand to let the manager approach her with a candle, and said, "Raise your head."

Shi Xuanxin is conceited of his beauty, although now he describes himself as a mess, he believes that seeing people under the light like this makes him more beautiful, he raised his face following Li Can's words, and looked at Li Can shyly and fearfully with his bright black eyes like a deer , and hang down again.

There was wind blowing in through the window lattice, and the cold crawled up Shi Xuanxin's back, shivering involuntarily.

Just when Shi Xuanxin was surprised by Li Can's silence, Li Can sneered first, and then said sarcastically: "Miss Shi Jia Sixth came to my house and pretended to be a servant girl, what is her intention?"

Shi Xuanxin was surprised that he was recognized, and then he was overjoyed. It can be seen that Li Can knew him well. He hurriedly swallowed two bags of tears, walked up to Li Can, stretched out his hand to grab his clothes, and said in a sad voice : "My lord, ever since I saw you when I was young, I have made a secret promise and swear to God that I will not marry you! My lord, I beg my lord to give me my will and let me pass the house! I know, my identity is I am not worthy of your princess position, but even if I am a concubine, I am willing, my lord!"
