Chapter 5 Xie Wei

Tang'er is two years older than Lian'er, and her temperament is much more stable. She is wearing a light blue biker and when Lian'er dragged her in, she was still holding a post. At first glance, it was evident that Jiang Xuening's expression was not right.

She quickly pinched Lian'er.

Lian'er suddenly stopped speaking.

She just walked over and pinned the post on several tables next to her. Then she came to Jiang Xuening's side and untied her robe, which was stained with alcohol. "Lian'er was scared and confused when she saw that you hadn't come back all night. The servant guessed that the young marquis was going to the palace to listen to the lecture. You would come back at the latest in the morning, so she asked someone to prepare hot water first. You should take a shower first, and then take a rest. The servant looked at you as if you hadn't slept well last night."

This is actually something that can be used.

Jiang Xuening glanced at Tang'er.

This girl was also placed by Meng Shi's side. Although she had some skills, she couldn't resist the fact that the superior master had a bad temper and was too indulgent towards those flattering servants. Even if she had a lot of skills, she could use them to a great extent.

"Then take a shower first."

At this moment, she didn't want to say too much. Seeing that Lian'er was no longer crying, she temporarily suppressed the idea of selling her.

With everything ready for the shower, Jiang Xuening widened her robe, entered the bathtub, and slowly sat down, letting the warm water slowly wash over her smooth shoulders and slender neck.

At this time, it is easiest to leave your head empty.

She particularly likes to think things over at such times.

I just asked Tang'er, and now it's the seventh day of September. She hasn't dressed up as a man and followed Yan Lin to the Double Ninth Festival, nor has she met Princess Leyang who went out of the palace to play with Shen Jie. In other words, Princess Leyang has fallen in love with her by chance and can still avoid it; Judging from the situation in the previous inn, she had not yet intentionally approached Shen Jie, so as long as she did not argue, the matter of being summoned to the palace to accompany her would not fall on her; Yan Lin is still wielding her sword and walking horses in the capital, and the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion has not yet been implicated in the Pingnan King's rebellion against the remaining party. In her lifetime, she has not said that hurtful word to the young man who was in the darkest of times

But things are not entirely optimistic either.

Just a Yanlin is enough to give you a headache.

Seeing the young man about to be crowned, he almost completely handed over his youthful and passionate emotions to an unworthy one. He took her out to play, protected her, and even helped her smooth out the Jiang Mansion for her extraordinary stubbornness and boldness.

In her previous life, she didn't think clearly.

But she has gone through a lot in this life, where can she still not see it?

Jiang Boyou may feel a bit guilty and pitiful towards her daughter, who has had a difficult fate, but wealthy families have to abide by certain rules. No matter how much they spoil her, they won't let her dress up as a man and run outside.

But Jiang Mansion tacitly agreed like this.

There can only be one explanation for this——

That's her marriage, which has already been secretly arranged. Rather than indulging her because she is the second daughter of the Jiang family, it is more accurate to say that she is the future wife of the brave and resolute Marquis Crown Prince.

But it is destined to have no outcome.

The Yongyi Marquis's Mansion will suffer in two months. In the previous life, Yan Lin did not even wait for the day when he could bring people to propose marriage. On the day before the coronation ceremony, his home was raided.

Jiang Xuening leaned quietly against the edge of the wooden barrel, blinking her eyes. She remembered the spirited face and passionate eyes of young Yan Lin, as well as the resolute and profound silhouette of young Yan Lin when he returned to the court with his martial arts skills. With an unfathomable gaze, she suddenly felt a bit uneasy.

It Is true that there is a connection between the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion and the remnants of the Pingnan Wang faction.

Just there seems to be some insider information in between.

Otherwise, after Yan Lin returned to the court in the previous life, he would not have defected to Xie Wei and conspired with him.

But what exactly is the inside story, Jiang Xuening couldn't figure it out until she died.

Let's just wait and see.

No matter how things develop next, she has no intention of staying in the capital. But in this life, she has already provoked Yan Lin. We must find a safe way to get together and part ways with him, so as not to let him hate her out of love. Once he returns to the palace, he will put her under house arrest and retaliate against her.

The days in my past life were simply nightmares.

It would be great if we could hide outside.

After all, in the past life, there was a fierce competition among the people in the capital, but the control of the area was extremely good. No matter how much turmoil there was in the palace, it was only on one acre and three parts of the imperial city. The whole world was still prosperous and the people were healthy.

It's better to wait until they finish fighting and then return to Beijing to live on their own.

Before and after a full calculation, it only took seven years.

If she leaves the capital, why not go find You Fangyin, who has traveled the world to do business?

Jiang Xuening admits to being at most a little clever in playing with people's hearts, and she dare not say that she has the great wisdom of An Bang Ding Guo, let alone the imperial teacher Xie Wei in the imperial court who is dressed in the skin of a saint.

Working with this person, I don't know how one day I accidentally get killed.

She can't get involved in this game of chess.

It is human nature to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune.

Jiang Xuening had already thought about it, so she called Lian'er and Tang'er to clean her clothes and put on a snowy blue embroidered skirt. The hem of the skirt was finely pressed with dark white flowing clouds and dark patterns, and a belt made her look graceful with a tight grip.

Just when Tang'er folded her sleeves, she saw a two inch scar on the inner side of her left wrist.

He sighed lightly for a moment and said, "I've used almost all the scar relief cream I brought back a month ago. Your patch seems to be a bit shallow. I'll buy some for you in a couple of days."

Jiang Xuening turned her wrist to take a look.

It's an old scar from four years ago.

Pull diagonally from the middle of the inner side of the wrist towards the palm, with a deep lower head and a shallow upper head. You can tell at a glance that it was done with a dagger, used for short-term bleeding, and can hold about half of the bowl.

She turned her wrist back again, but a hint of dim light flashed through her eyes: I really don't know whether to say that God treated her well or Xie Wei well. Although she was given the opportunity to be reborn, she was reborn after returning to Beijing.

If reborn on the way back to Beijing

Before she could make this cut, this life might have been much easier.

It's just that what happened has already happened, thinking too much is useless.

Jiang Xuening already has plans to leave the capital to avoid disasters, and money has become a top priority to consider, so it is natural to first clarify.

So she ordered, "Go and bring all the things in the house, I'll order some."

Both girls were stunned for a moment.

The things of our own girl have always been countless, and they are both new and old. Sometimes, when she receives a share, divides the things, or the little marquis sends some things, she takes them with her once or twice and throws them aside, not caring about their whereabouts.

So there are a few people in the room who are blinded by lard, led by Wang Xing's family, often taking things from girls.

It's no use if they're not satisfied anymore, because the girl turns a blind eye and doesn't even talk about them.

Suddenly ordering something now

Tang'er and Lian'er exchanged a glance.

Tang'er is fine, calm and composed.

Lian'er, however, couldn't hold back and excitedly clenched her small fist, quickly saying, "Yes, the maids are going now!"

In Jiang Xuening's impression, she has gained a lot in the past four years.

But when the two maids tidied up and brought it up, there were only two boxes left.

Pearl and jade, gold and silver head noodles.

Although the quality is good when flipped casually, the quantity is indeed a bit shabby.

She picked up a clear string of tourmaline beads, smiled, and threw it back into the box, saying, "Call everyone in for me, not a single one inside or outside."

Two girls go down to call someone.

It took a long time for seven or eight people to arrive one after another, and they didn't have a clear standing posture, being slow and lazy.

The maids and mother-in-law were whispering to each other, guessing what she wanted to do.

Jiang Xuening sat on the kang by the window, half leaning against the autumn fragrant brocade pillow, and took a sip of tea from several cups, only silently observing these people.

After a while, even the Wang Xing family arrived.

===Kunning Section 7===

She was scared half to death by Jiang Xuening in the corridor this morning. Just now, when Fang heard that Jiang Xuening was calling someone, she rushed over and smiled, "There are many things waiting for everyone to do. Miss suddenly called everyone over. Is there anything I need to explain?"

Jiang Xuening was too lazy to talk nonsense to them and only pointed to the two boxes placed on the table in front of them. He said calmly, "It's not a big deal either, just watch as my box is a bit empty. Just put back how much you've taken in the past."

Wang Xingjia's face suddenly changed.

Others were also surprised.

There was no sound in the room, it was extremely quiet. Everyone's eyes flickered, but no one spoke.

Jiang Xuening smiled and said, "I didn't even take it, did I?"

The Wang Xing family took the most, and they knew that there were not many people in this house who were clean. They didn't have time to cover up for each other, only thinking that something big couldn't happen. They stood up and said in a surprised manner, "What kind of words did the girl say! It's really frustrating for the old slaves. Everyone is serving you in this mansion, big and small, every pile and piece is yours first. Who dares to take your things?"

Jiang Xuening didn't listen to her and only turned her eyes to look at the others. "Do you think the same way?"

The others looked at each other in confusion.

But who dares to step forward and admit such a thing?

Moreover, the two girls knew everything about themselves, and even if they found out that something was missing, they couldn't just conclude for no reason who took it.

Whoever comes forward to recognize it is foolish.

They still understood this simple truth and thought that Jiang Xuening might only get angry when she saw too little, but with her strong willed nature, she couldn't stir up anything.

So after she finished asking, no one answered for a long time.

There was also a little girl with a melon seed face inside who came out to agree with the Wang Xing family, "Miss, you really want to come out and accuse us servants who have worked hard to serve you. It's really chilling!"

Jiang Xuening was not angry either, only said, "Okay."

After finishing speaking, she stood up on the foot pedal by the kang, casually clapped her hands, and walked outside the house without caring about others.

Everyone is confused.

The Wang Xing family was extremely confused. They thought she was going to argue a few times, but unexpectedly left.

Her suspended heart should have fallen, but for no reason, a hint of unease arose again: "What are you doing, girl?"

At this moment, Jiang Xuening had already walked out.

Wang Xingjia stood behind her, carefully distinguishing the direction, and suddenly his face changed drastically——

This direction is clearly going to the master's study!

*

Jiang Xuening had already seen the scene clearly just now.

These maidservants and mother-in-law are unable to be manipulated at the moment.

She certainly has a way to deal with these people, but these small things in the inner house are not worth her putting in too much effort, and she has to fight like a black eyed chicken.

If you have any trouble, just ask dad.

Don't procrastinate if you can solve it as soon as possible.

Meng Shi and her legitimate daughter, who was raised by a concubine and acted exceptionally well, were not friendly, but Jiang Boyou was quite kind to her, perhaps even able to be called indulgent due to Yan Lin.

To punish the maid and mother-in-law, one sentence is enough.

At most, it will take some time to explain the reason.

But this is Jiang Xuening's specialty, and she is not afraid.

Jiang Boyou's study is located in the east corner of the front yard, nestled in the shade of several old locust trees.

Jiang Xuening just walked into the outer room.

There stood a young servant in green beside the door, who was Chang Zhuo, serving beside Jiang Boyou; Inside, there were four chairs lined up against the wall, and on the last chair sat a man dressed in a black and blue royal uniform, with a token hanging from his waist. He looked tall and steady, and although his facial features were ordinary, there was a sharp eagle like light in his eyes, revealing a deep calculation.

When Jiang Xuening saw him, he also saw Jiang Xuening.

At that moment, the person stood up from the seat and calmly bowed to her, saying, "Hello, Miss Er."

Zhou Yinzhi.

In his previous life, he served as the commander of the Imperial Guards and was the main official in charge of the seal on the Imperial Guard Hall.

But this person is a well-known "three surname domestic slave" in the court.

At first, he was just the son of a servant in the Jiang family. He was implicated in the matter of Wanniang and was sent to the countryside with his family. When I grew up, I also helped with some physical work in the village, learned a few words from the teachers in the school, and read a few books by myself.

Jiang Xuening was going back to Beijing at that time, with no one to rely on.

Please ask him to come back with the people from the capital and send him to the capital.

Zhou Yinzhi made a request: after arriving in Beijing, please ask Jiang Xuening to talk to Jiang Boyou and let him work with the adults.

Jiang Xuening agreed.

After arriving in the capital, Zhou Yinzhi worked for Jiang Boyou.

Jiang Boyou saw that he handled things properly and had some success. Two years ago, he recommended him to the Royal Guards and worked for a position as a school magistrate for him. He is also in high spirits, and today he is a hundred households of the sixth grade Jinyi Guard.

If Jiang Xuening remembers correctly, in her previous life, a month later, she would ask Zhou Yinzhi to investigate Shen Jie's identity for her.

The condition proposed by Zhou Yinzhi was to recommend him to the young Marquis Yan Lin.

As the saying goes, "gentlemen share the same path, and petty people share the same benefits.".

Between her and Zhou Yinzhi, there was a combination of interests, one seeking and the other needing, and they naturally agreed.

Before the incident at the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion, he seized the opportunity to climb up and became a "deputy thousand households" from fifth grade.

Later, Jiang Xuening married Shen Jie, and Zhou Yinzhi naturally followed Shen Jie.

When Shen Jie ascended to the throne, she also had considerable trust in him.

In the end, he became the commander of the capital and stood in opposition to the eunuch controlled East Factory. He did a lot of things, some that he should and some that he should not do, which can be considered a significant force in the court.

Unfortunately, the outcome was extremely tragic.

Xie Wei walked from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, controlled the court, and the first thing he did was to have someone shoot him to death with arrows. His head was nailed to the palace gate with three long iron nails, so that all civil and military officials entering and exiting could see him.

Jiang Xuening had never seen it with her own eyes, but just listening to the rumors of the palace people made her feel a chill in her heart.

Speaking of which

The Yongyi Marquis's Mansion was implicated in the case of the remaining sins of the Prince of Pingnan's rebellion against the Communist Party, which was handled by the Royal Guards.

A thought suddenly flashed through Jiang Xuening's mind. She glanced at Zhou Yin for a moment, didn't respond, only nodded calmly before turning to Chang Zhuo and saying, "Is father inside?"

Chang Zhuo said, "It's inside, but there are guests."

Jiang Xuening frowned and reflected on her youthful indulgence, then said, "I don't care. The maids and women in my house have gone against the law, stealing my things and encouraging them to bully me together. You go in and tell your father, I'll just take a word and go deal with them!"

Chang Zhuo couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but he also knew the temperament of this second girl. He bravely agreed and even lifted the curtain inside to report.

Jiang Xuening sat down on the chair outside.

Zhou Yinzhi no longer sat down and only stood aside, occasionally glancing at her.

But when Chang Zhuo went in to report, Jiang Boyou was personally brewing tea for the guests.

He has a refined appearance, with a mature age and a beautiful beard, which gives him a certain aura.

After hearing Chang Zhuo whisper that it was Jiang Xuening who was looking, he frowned and said, "Nonsense!"

Chang Zhuo looked up at the person sitting opposite Jiang Boyou and felt somewhat embarrassed. He lowered his voice even more and said, "Miss Er said that the maid in the room has unclean hands and feet…"

Speak in detail.

Jiang Boyou's face suddenly showed surprise upon hearing this, and his eyes lit up: "Did she really say that?"

Chang Zhuo nodded.

Jiang Boyou immediately patted his palm and smiled, "This girl has even had an enlightenment. I'm afraid she didn't lose her head in a fit of anger for a moment. This group of people in her room don't follow the rules in secret. Madam said several times, and I've been wanting to clean up for a long time. I'm worried about not finding a chance! You go immediately and call that room to me! Don't wait for Miss Ning to come back to her senses. She's going to get angry, and I won't be able to clean up again!"

Chang Zhuo couldn't help but feel even more embarrassed as he looked at his old master's excitement.

Jiang Boyou didn't know it yet, so he turned to the guest sitting across the table and said, "Ju'an, I'm afraid I'll have to wait for you for a while. There's a bit of filth in my mansion, so I'll come and cook for a while."

The guest smiled slightly and said, "It's okay."
