The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort - 259. season finale
Sister Gui made the young daughter-in-law next door boil the brown sugar and eggs quickly, but Jiang Ruan was in pain at the moment, and there was still no heart to eat. I can’t hold back Gui’s sister-in-law’s persuasion time and time again: “Ms. Ruan should eat a little bit. We are all people who have given birth to children. We know that giving birth to a child is hard work. Where can Ms. Ruan not eat when she is going to give birth? There is strength. The presenter will not know when they will give birth at this moment. I think that in these few days, it is impossible for Lady Ruan to be hungry for a few days. Don’t starve the child in her belly.”
Jiang Ruan had no intention of eating, but when he heard Gui’s last words, he couldn’t help being surprised. Thinking that he could not hungry the child anyway, he forced Gui’s to bear the discomfort. The food was clean. But even so, the pain in the abdomen has not alleviated at all. As a result, the whole night passed in a flash.
That night, Jiang Ruan didn’t hurt until the middle of the night, and fell asleep because of being too tired. The fathers and villagers of Qingping Village, some aunts and daughters-in-laws who have had childbirth experience are guarding at the door of Gui Gui’s house, and there are also many young boys. Jiang Ruansheng’s beauty, most of these young men have a lot of affection, and they give small gifts or something on weekdays. At this moment, they can’t help but worry about her. Ignoring the scolding of my parents, I ran out, baba guarding at the door of Wife Gui’s house.
A slightly older mother-in-law said, “I don’t think she will have a baby tonight.” This person is the midwife king’s wife in the village.
“I think it’s just these two days, that belly is big.” Gui sister-in-law is a little worried. She also likes Jiang Ruan when she gets along these days. Jiang Ruan has a gentle temperament, courtesy and thoughtful treatment of others, and the beauty of life. There are not so many high-level rules here. People are also very simple in temperament. Gui sister-in-law also treats Jiang Ruan as a daughter and really loves her. Worried: “I don’t know if I have such a big belly.”
“I think Ms. Ruan’s body is still a little vacant.” Wang Pozi said: “I’m afraid I won’t be born so easily this time.”
“How can it be worthwhile,” a young daughter-in-law said: “I have suffered so much before, and I was still chased by my husband when I was pregnant, I’m afraid my body is already weak. Oh, it’s pitiful. ”
These words are naturally scolding Jiang Ruan’s wolf-hearted husband. All the women present hate such an affectionate man in their hearts, and the young men present can’t wait to beat up the heart-worried man. How can they be willing to hurt such a kind and beautiful girl.
Liu Mengmeng is the daughter of Master Liu in the village. This year she is only fourteen or five years old. Master Liu is the most educated person in the village. Naturally, Liu Mengmeng is also the most talented girl in this village. She also gave birth to jade. Xue is cute. Before Jiang Ruan came, she was the most beautiful girl in this village. However, after Jiang Ruan came, the young men in the village who had liked to offer her courtesy turned to Jiang Ruan one after another, and Liu Mengmeng was naturally suffocated.
She also came today, following Aunt Liu. Liu Mengmeng saw the two brothers Dashan sitting nervously at the door of Gui Gui’s house. Dashan was also shocked when he saw Jiang Ruan about to give birth today. Seeing Jiang Ruan’s pain so severe, he felt uncomfortable, wishing that he could do her pain instead. At first I thought it would be born at night, but in the end it was not born, and Dashan’s heart was hanging in his stomach. I didn’t know what I should do, so I had to sit at the door with the guys who admired Jiang Ruan and stared.
“Dashan,” Liu Mengmeng walked to him, took out a paper bag from his arms and handed it to him: “The camellia cake I brought from home, you have been sitting here for half the night, let’s eat something.”
The surrounding young men turned their heads to look at her one after another, Liu Mengmeng’s face turned red from being stared at. Everyone in the village knows that Liu Mengmeng is very good to Dashan, only because Liu Mengmeng met a leopard when he was digging herbs with his little sister in the mountain. He met a leopard while hunting in Dashan and saved her life. The little girl always admires heroes. Dashan is also a handsome boy, so he will naturally win Liu Mengmeng’s favor, but Liu Mengmeng is too hot to shave his head, and Dashan doesn’t seem to care about this.
Sure enough, Da Shan did not pay attention this time, but the paper-packed camellia cake smiled and said, “It’s okay, I’m not hungry. You haven’t eaten for half the night, Xiaoshan, let’s eat something.” Xiaoshan is really hungry. He took it, took out a big bite of the camellia cake, and said to Liu Meng: “It’s delicious, thank you.”
The lads around burst into laughter. He didn’t know if he was laughing at Dashan’s incomprehensible style, or laughing at Liu Mengmeng’s goodwill and wasted. Liu Meng stomped his feet vaguely, and turned his head and ran away abruptly. Da Shan was very puzzled, but was seen by Wife Gui and couldn’t help sighing.
Liu Mengmeng is a good girl, but his son is naturally very clear about himself. Dashan clearly likes Jiang Ruan. Indeed, no one can dislike a girl like Jiang Ruan. Even she would like Jiang Ruan to be his daughter. Dashan likes Jiang Ruan. If she wants to marry Jiang Ruan, she has no opinion at all, but she is also a woman. It can be seen clearly that Jiang Ruan has no affection for Dashan, let alone other things. Dashan’s tenderness is destined to be succumbed to it, but…Sao Gui changed her mind again, thinking that Jiang Ruan had been hurt so much, she would naturally become less likely to believe in men because of this. It will take a long time to see people’s hearts, maybe it will take a long time, and Jiang Ruan may change his mind. In short, take one step at a time.
Time passed while the whole village was anxiously waiting. Until the afternoon of the next day, no major problems were encountered. Everyone in the village separated.
After Jiang Ruan woke up, he felt very sorry, and caused everyone to be busy, but Gui Sao comforted her a few words, saying: “It is important to have a baby. Wherever you are busy, you have worked hard. But this ‘S child is quite naughty, so teasing his mother is like a kid.”
Jiang Ruan laughed too.
However, on the other side, Xiao Shao and his cronies rushed here non-stop. One day and one night, several people and horses under his staff were exhausted, but he did not cry out of bitterness or tiredness, because Xiao Shao was totally determined. Will rest. The same is true for Jiang Xinzhi. Qi Feng wanted to persuade him a few words, but he could understand the mood of the two of them. Besides, he found the news of Jiang Ruan, so it was naturally all right.
The owner of the pawnshop where Jiang Ruan jewelry was spread recalled that a half-aged boy dressed as a hunter in the mountains came to work that day, and he was still alive. What a good job is to say that the owner of the jewelry is still alive. Perhaps this boy wants to redeem it for the owner of the jewelry in the future, perhaps this is the signal that the owner of the jewelry tacitly approved or even actively released.
Jin Yiwei inquired about the news along the way, and finally learned through many inside stories that there was a place to escape from the world. It is really hard to find this place. Everyone thought that Jiang Ruan was no longer alive. Only Xiao Shao insisted on asking about Jiang Ruan’s news. Now that he has a little hope, how can he give up?
When I reached the edge of the cliff, there was no way, but I heard that I was going down the cliff. There were only vines outside. The men followed Xiao Shao and got off their horses, leaving a few people to stay here. Xiao Shao and Jiang Xinzhi opened the way. They both made martial arts. Gao Qiang took the lead to go down, and soon Qi Feng and the others followed. After a few people settled, they found that it was a cluster of mountains, and it was impossible to tell where it was, and it stretched endlessly. Qi Feng sighed: “No wonder others can’t find it anymore. You have to find a village in such a hidden place. I’m afraid that no one will lead the way, and you will only get lost and trapped in it.”
“Find it if you are sleepy.” Xiao Shao said, “Find it separately.”
“Wait,” Jiang Xinzhi suddenly stretched out his hand and said, “Look, who is that?”
Among the rolling hills, there is a girl who is carrying a basket and don’t know what she is doing. This is a lush forest. This girl is wearing a peach-colored summer gown. She looks very eye-catching. A few people noticed it at a glance. She’s gone. Jin Yi: “Bait?”
“Where is the bait?” Qi Feng said, “Maybe it is from the village, should I ask if you want to.”
Xiao Shao and Jiang Xinzhi looked at each other and said, “Okay.”
Liu Mengmeng is collecting herbs in the mountains. It is very unsafe for a person to come out to collect herbs, but today she is also angry. Last night, Dashan lost all her face. She has liked Dashan for a long time. Dashan is handsome and brave and has excellent archery skills. But Da Shan has always ignored her, but Liu Mengmeng is not worried at all. She is the best-looking girl in the village and the most knowledgeable. Da Shan will definitely like her. Who knows that everything has changed since Jiang Ruan came.
Jiang Ruan’s life is beautiful, even she has to admit that Jiang Ruan’s beauty is like the sun in the sky, too bright and vivid, making everyone around her look sad, and she has a good temperament, every move. They all look like the elegance of your door. Most importantly, she is also very knowledgeable, and sometimes even tells the children in the village something that Liu Mengmeng doesn’t know. Even her father praises Lady Ruan as a learned woman.
Jealous, Liu Mengmeng was jealous of Jiang Ruan, and the most jealous was that Dashan was so good to Jiang Ruan. She had never seen Da Shan be so considerate to other women. Liu Mengmen could see that Da Shan liked Jiang Ruan. But why, Jiang Ruan is a woman who has had a husband. The more she thinks about it, the sadder she gets, especially when she saw Dashan sitting motionlessly there last night, her eyes full of Jiang Ruan who is about to give birth in the house, and she cannot tolerate others at all. Liu Mengmeng felt wronged as long as he thought of it, and went into the mountain early in the morning to dig for herbs. She thought voluntarily, if she unfortunately encountered a beast in the mountain, would Da Shan come to rescue her? If she is injured, will Da Shan guard her like Jiang Ruan?
She was thinking about these things boringly, and she didn’t have the mind to gather herbs. When she was thinking, she suddenly heard someone calling her from behind, “This girl.”
Liu Mengmeng was taken aback, and quickly turned around. A handsome young man stood in front of her. The man was dressed in luxurious clothes and had a sense of courage. He looked at her and smiled: “Girl, may I ask you? How to get to Qingping Village?”
Although Liu Mengmeng entered the mountain, she had never been to the outside world. She had lived in the village for a long time, so the people she met were all acquaintances in the village. Suddenly a group of people came and was scared. Jump.
Immediately afterward, a man in purple walked out from behind the heroic man. This man was also very handsome and his voice was very gentle and polite: “This girl, we are not bad guys. I dare to ask the girl, but it is from Qingping Village. How many people will lead the way?”
Liu Mengmeng took a step back. The people in this group were all rich and distinguished, and they all looked impressive. After all, Liu Mengmeng was also a little girl. Moreover, these people were gentle and polite, and they looked good. I got a good feeling, just thinking that there seems to be very few outsiders in my village, so I still asked: “What do you want to do?”
This time, a young man in black walked out from behind the heroic man. This young man had a very good appearance, better than the two men in front of him. His eyes were like dotted eyebrows like ink paintings. Thinking of the words his father taught him, there is a fascinating coldness in this young man. His words are also faint: “I received a clue that my wife was living in Qingping Village, so I came to look for it. The girl is from Qingping Village. Is there any stranger in the village living here.”
With just a word, Liu Mengmeng paused, and instantly recovered from the amazement of the black-clothed youth in front of him. She thought of Jiang Ruan almost immediately, and the more outsider in Qingping Village is Jiang Ruan. The black-clothed youth actually said that Jiang Ruan was his wife. Isn’t this man just the unlucky man!
Liu Mengmeng has also heard Jiang Ruan’s story. She knew that Jiang Ruan was married to an inhumane. At first, she was very angry for Jiang Ruan. In fact, any woman who married such a man would be miserable. Although Liu Mengmeng was jealous that Dashan was so good to Jiang Ruan, but when he saw the man in front of him, he immediately thought that he must not let him find Jiang Ruan’s trace.
“Girl?” Qi Feng couldn’t help but ask when she saw her silent for a long time, thinking that what scared the little girl was. Little did she know that Liu Mengmeng kept staring at the young man in black. She had never seen such a good-looking man. Moreover, there was a kind of gracefulness in her bones, and she couldn’t see enough at all. Such a person turned out to be domineering. Someone else’s family property will eventually chase down his wife’s unsuccessful person. Liu Mengmeng felt emotional in his heart, thinking that it was himself, fearing that he would not be able to recognize the ambition of this young man at a glance.
She looked back at Xiao Shao and pretended to be stupid: “I am not from Qingping Village. There are several villages in this mountain. It is also my first time to visit the mountain. I don’t know where Qingping Village is. I haven’t heard of any women living here. I am afraid that the older brothers have misheard them.”
“How is it possible?” Jin Er said: “The clue is clear and it’s right.” He said: “Little sister, are you talking about us? We are not bad guys.”
It was so easy to find such a clue. If it was false, Xiao Shao didn’t know how sad it would be. Everyone believed this. How could this little girl believe it. Upon seeing this, Jiang Xinzhi said to her again: “I am her elder brother. We have been looking for her for a long time. Don’t hide the girl. If there is any accident, I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life.”
Liu Mengmeng sneered in his heart, thinking that Jiang Ruan had clearly said it earlier that there was no eldest brother in his family at all, this was clearly a lie. These people looked like humans, and she didn’t expect to kill them all. At this time, she didn’t care about the grudges with Jiang Ruan. She blinked and said: “Sorry, I sympathize with you too, but I really I don’t know where Qingping Village is, so it’s better to look for it again and leave.” After that, he turned and left.
“Hey–” Qi Feng tried to reach out and hold her, but Xiao Shao stopped him. Everyone looked at Xiao Shao in confusion, Xiao Shao whispered: “She lied, keep up with her.”
That girl’s appearance is not the first time she has entered the mountain, and Jin Yiwei’s clue is absolutely not wrong. There is only one Qingping Village here, and there are other Qingping Villages. The little girl looked at him with extremely weird eyes. At first she seemed to be obsessed with surprise. Then she became a little strange after hearing what she said, and then her attitude suddenly changed. Although she didn’t know why, Xiao Shao knew , The little girl must have some reaction to his own words. That being the case, instead of entangled here, it is better to follow behind quietly and find Jiang Ruan already. After all, the little girl is not deeply involved in the world. If she knows something, she will definitely report to the village as soon as possible. As long as she follows her, she will definitely find Qingping Village.
Everyone didn’t refute Xiao Shao’s words, and acted according to the words.
However, after Liu Mengmeng walked a short distance, he couldn’t help but look back, and he was relieved not to see the group of young men in black. Sure enough, as her father said, the outside world is too complicated, even she did not expect that the handsome young man in black clothed like a painting is such a wolf-hearted person, thinking that this person would also want to find here to kill Jiang Ruan. , I couldn’t help but sympathize with Jiang Ruan.
However, Liu Mengmeng suddenly thought that these people are so cruel, they will definitely not stop without finding Jiang Ruan, since they have got the clues, they will definitely not give up so easily. It is better to go back to the village early and talk to the villagers about this matter, so that Jiang Ruan will have an early preparation, it is best to hide and not be discovered.
Liu Mengmeng turned his head again to confirm, no one followed, and then he hurried back to the village with the basket on his back. It takes several hours to get back to the village from this mountain, and it won’t be there for a while. Liu Mengmeng tried hard to run faster, but he didn’t know that Xiao Shao and the others followed her far away. .
“It’s really a cunning little girl.” Qi Feng said: “It’s just why she lied to us?”
“A place to hide from the world, I definitely don’t want to be discovered.” Jiang Xinzhidao. It was reasonable to say so, and everyone stopped talking and continued to follow Liu Mengmeng.
However, it was said that Japan flies quickly. Everyone thought it was a false alarm. They didn’t want to arrive at dusk when it was almost dusk, Jiang Ruan began to have unbearable abdominal pain again, and this time it was much worse than the last time. When Sister Gui entered the house, she was shocked when she saw that the blanket under Jiang Ruan was wet. She hurriedly rushed to the wood-burning mountain and said, “Dashan, go and call Mrs. Wang over! Mrs. Ruan is about to give birth!”
Dashan threw down the firewood in his hand and ran out. His heart has been very panicked all this day, and no one knows when Jiang Ruan will be born. Dashan heard from others that a woman had a child by walking around the gate of a ghost. Wang Pozi said that Jiang Ruan’s body was a bit more dangerous, and she was very afraid of accidents. Dashan was also anxious.
Granny Wang ran in quickly and brought two aunts who had experience in delivering births. A large pot of hot water had already been cooked outside, so Gui sister-in-law drove Dashan out of the house early. So this time it was the same scene as last night, many young boys and young daughter-in-laws were waiting outside Gui Gui’s house, anxiously listening to the movement from inside.
It’s just that tonight is different from last night. Jiang Ruan’s abdominal pain was tolerable last night, and finally settled down. The voice that came from that room tonight was harsh. From time to time, there are women who bring out pots of blood, which is heart palpitating. Everyone couldn’t help but squeeze their palms tightly because of the cry of the pregnant woman in the room.
“Ah -” Jiang Ruan squeezed the sheets under him vigorously. Granny Wang said: “Ms. Ruan, don’t be nervous, relax, women always give birth to children in this way, don’t be afraid, come on, use force–”
“It hurts.” Jiang Ruan’s forehead was covered with sweat, his hair was dampened in locks, his face was terribly pale, and his lips were still trembling. The other body pulled Wife Gui aside and said in a voice of only two people: “No, Lady Ruan is very dangerous. The child’s head is too big to get out of the way. She is weak. I can’t have any strength…”
Wife Gui became anxious as soon as she heard it: “What should I do?” This is not the first time she has seen someone give birth. Seeing Jiang Ruan’s appearance, she knows how bad things are. But Jiang Ruan has been with her for so long. These days because of Jiang Ruan, it seems that she has an extra daughter. Gui sister-in-law feels that Jiang Ruan has suffered so much at such a young age. If there is any accident today, she dare not think…
“Only try again…” The aunt sighed and turned to help again.
As time passed, the moaning in the room gradually weakened. Even the always naughty hill couldn’t help but straighten his face. Nono asked Dashan, “Brother, will she be okay?”
“Nothing will happen.” Da Shan murmured, not knowing whether he was speaking to Xiao Shan or comforting himself.
At this moment, I heard a crisp voice coming over: “It’s not good, it’s not good!”
When everyone looked back, it wasn’t Liu Mengmeng or who it was. Aunt Liu cursed: “Die Nizi, where are you going crazy? I’ve only come back so late!”
“Mum, it’s not good,” Liu Meng said, panting. “I went into the mountain today and met Niang Ruan’s husband in the mountain. They brought a lot of people. They probably came to arrest Niang Niang. I’m afraid they will know. Here, I fooled them away indiscriminately. I was afraid that they would follow me. I deliberately took a lot of detours and came back now.”
“Ms. Ruan’s husband?” Dashan asked.
“En,” Liu Mengmeng gestured: “He is tall, looks good, and is wearing black clothes… Ah -” Liu Mengmeng screamed and pointed to a person in the night: “Why are you here? ”
The man standing there was tall, handsome, and dressed in black. Who was the husband of Jiang Ruan that Liu Mengmen didn’t describe? There are still some people behind him, all of whom have never met. The villagers of Qingping Village all stood up. The big guy knew Jiang Ruan’s life and experience very well, and hated the gratuitous white-eyed wolf in front of him. The mountain stood in front of the man in black and said:” What do you want to do?”
Qi Feng frowned, always feeling that the villagers in this village reported great hostility towards them. Although he didn’t know why, he still said, “Everyone, we are not bad guys. We are just looking for the lady in the house. We will leave immediately after we are finished. We will not bother you or disclose the news here.”
“Fake white-eyed wolf, get out!” Xiaoshan took the pole and rushed over, Jiang Xinzhi’s hand gently hooked the pole, and the pole was blocked aside. He wondered: “What do you mean?” There is no reason, why? Become a white-eyed wolf? Looking at it, the people in this village really have a lot of dissatisfaction with them.
Dashan stopped the movement of the hill. He glanced around and made sure that it was Jiang Ruan’s husband who was wearing black. This man looked very handsome. Who knew he was a beast with a face, he said bluntly: “We don’t have any here. All the ladies are from their own village. The son is afraid that he has found the wrong place.”
Before the voice fell, I heard a high-pitched groan from the lighted room: “Ah—”
This voice is familiar to everyone, it is Jiang Ruan’s. Xiao Shao and Jiang Xinzhi’s complexion changed together, and they shouted, “A Ruan–” they were about to rush into the room.
Princess Wang’s voice also rang anxiously: “Ms. Ruan is going to be dying, she’s out of strength, what should I do?”
Dashan stopped Xiao Shao and said angrily: “Don’t want to hurt her. If you hurt her, I will kill you!”
Xiao Shao glanced at him coldly. About this moment, he was also extremely unhappy. He even reached out and grabbed Dashan’s arm. The next moment Dashan flew out of his eyes.
The surrounding villagers screamed all of a sudden, and they all surrounded. Qi Feng felt very distressed. This matter didn’t have to be so irritable, it could also be resolved peacefully. How did it become like this. Xiao Shao didn’t even glance at these people, and immediately rushed into the room. Jiang Ruan was already weakly screaming, but at this time, it was vaguely as if he heard Xiao Shao’s voice, and the originally unconscious mind came back sober again. She said: “A Shao——”
Xiao Shao had heard her voice, and broke into the house in an instant. The surrounding villagers couldn’t stop them even if they wanted to. Dashan had to stand up and grab Xiao Shao: “What do you want to do?”
“What do you want to do?” Jin Er slapped him on the ground. At first, he was very uncomfortable with the young man. What did he do to look familiar with the young lady, so that his young master was so angry, he smiled: “What does your husband’s business matter to you?”
Several women in the room screamed when they saw the people who came in suddenly. Jiang Ruan opened his eyes in a daze, and saw Xiao Shao, tears were about to come down, she said: “A Shao, Ah Shao, you are finally here…”
“I’m late,” Xiao Shao knelt in front of the bed three and a half steps, and took her hand tightly, saying, “I’m sorry.”
“I… save our child…” Jiang Ruan said: “You save him…” Seeing Xiao Shao, Jiang Ruan’s whole heart was let go. The only thought was to keep the child in her abdomen. She felt The strength and life of the whole body are passing by. As long as Xiao Shao can keep her child, this is her and Xiao Shao’s child, and she doesn’t want to lose it.
“A Ruan, hold on, you and your child are doing well, I’m here, nothing will happen, don’t be afraid, don’t give up.” Xiao Shao held her hand, a young man who was never happy, angry, and indecent. It turned red, his voice was trembling, but his tone was firm, and said, “A Ruan, hold on.” He turned his head and looked at the stunned women over there, the proud young man always ranked first. Second time pleaded: “Keep her life!”
That Wang Pozi and Gui sister-in-law were startled by the people who broke in first, and they were so scared that Liushen Wuzhu, who looked like this, should also be Jiang Ruan’s husband-in-law. But Jiang Ruan’s husband-in-law is a very heart-hearted person, but this young man doesn’t seem to be merciless to Jiang Ruan. They are all people who are here. Seeing Jiang Ruan’s gaze, this young man is already painful. As for Jiang Ruan, she always looked like a smile when she came to Qingping Village for so long, but it was the first time they saw Jiang Ruan like this, and it seemed that all the burdens they had been carrying silently were all put down. My heart trusts the person in front of me.
Xiao Shao held Jiang Ruan’s hand, and he said in her ear: “You can’t leave me alone, A Ruan, I missed your life. I don’t want to miss it again in this life. Wait until the dust settles. , I will accompany you to do what you want to do. You can go wherever you want. I’ll accompany you. Don’t leave me…” His tears fell drop by drop, surprisingly, the cold youth’s tears were so hot. .
Jiang Ruan’s eye circles were also red, and she couldn’t bear Xiao Shao. People may only discover how precious everything they have today is only after taking the wrong path once. In this life, Xiao Shao was her most unexpected gift. How lucky it was to meet him, if he died and Xiao Shao lived alone in this world, he would also be very painful. Jiang Ruan closed his eyes and clenched his fists again.
The sisters Guis on one side couldn’t help but their eyes were red, and Wang’s eyes were sharp, and she could see the difference between Jiang Ruan at a glance, and she quickly said loudly: “Lady Ruan, that’s right, that’s it, work hard!” She helped. While Jiang Ruan delivered the baby, she encouraged her. Xiao Shao also held Jiang Ruan’s hand tightly and kept encouraging her.
The night seemed too long. When the eastern sky was white, the first cry of the baby resounded across the sky, and the people inside and outside were relieved at the same time.
Dashan and the villagers were surrounded by Jin Yiwei and couldn’t get closer, but they heard the surprise voice of Wang Zi from inside: “It’s the baby of the dragon and the phoenix, how lucky Madame Ruan is!”
“A Ruan…” Jiang Xinzhi’s heart loosened, and he was about to walk into the house quickly, and then saw Gui sister-in-law walk out, and ordered several young daughters-in-law to make some sugar water. Jiang Ruan was born all night. The child, probably thought it was extremely dangerous, and finally escaped like this, which also caused everyone’s hearts to follow tightly. If it weren’t for the black-clothed young man in the end, I’m afraid that she would not be able to persevere.
Wife Gui sighed and remembered that after the child was born, the young man didn’t even look at the child at all, and only focused on Jiang Ruan. The nervous person looked sour. She knew at the time that this young man had a very close relationship with Jiang Ruan, but she was afraid that things were not what Jiang Ruan said. If this person is Jiang Ruanfu’s son-in-law, he must be someone who loves his wife.
In the room, the baby in the swaddle was wiped clean, and wrapped in the already made baby, it was lovely. It is the brother and sister, who are next to Jiang Ruan. Jiang Ruan’s body is still very weak, Xiao Shao has been holding her hand, Jiang Ruan smiled and said: “I want to see the child.”
“Don’t move.” Xiao Shao frowned to stop her, and he picked up the child to show her. His movements were still very awkward, and he held the wrong posture. Fortunately, the two children were not squeamish and did not cry. It’s just that the newly born child was wrinkled and his little faces clumped together. Xiao Shao was stunned when he saw it, and he snorted, and said, “So ugly.”
When he was born, he was disgusted by his own father. Jiang Ruan glared at Xiao Shao. Xiao Shao hugged the child to Jiang Ruan’s eyes. Jiang Ruan stretched out his hand to tease the child, full of joy. The pain of that night was all relieved at this moment, as if everything was worth it. Life is so wonderful, this is her and Xiao Shao’s child. She said: “I haven’t named them yet, I’ve always wanted to wait for you to get it.” Without seeing Xiao Shao answer, Jiang Ruan looked up and Xiao Shao was looking at her deeply.
“What do you see me doing?” Jiang Ruan asked.
“I’m sorry,” Xiao Shao whispered: “It must be very hard for you to be alone for so long. I came too late, almost…” I almost lost her. Xiao Shao’s hand stroked Jiang Ruan’s hair, if he had lost Jiang Ruan, he would not dare to think.
Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: “What’s the matter here, it’s great here. But how do I feel that you don’t seem to like these two children?” Jiang Ruan’s heart also has a trace of tension, Xiao Shao’s expressions towards the children since entering Faintly, why does he show such an expression because he doesn’t like children?
Xiao Shao hesitantly glanced at the two wrinkled little monkeys in the baby, buried her head in Jiang Ruan’s shoulders, and took a deep sniff, as if to carve her breath in her heart, he said: “A Ruan, From now on… don’t give birth anymore.”
The moment she watched her giving birth and stepped into the ghost gate, she never wanted to do it again in her life. That kind of powerlessness is mixed with great panic, knowing that one’s beloved is suffering but not knowing what to do. What about the child? As long as Jiang Ruan is alive, he doesn’t want Jiang Ruan to suffer like this anymore.
Jiang Ruan’s heart loosened, but he was a little funny, but a little touched. Knowing that Xiao Shao was also scared this time, he cursed: “Naive!”
After all settled down, Xiao Shao stayed by Jiang Ruan’s side, and the child was also with Jiang Ruan, just like a happy family. After Jiang Xinzhi came to the mountain at the door of the house, he slid in his footsteps. He was not a fool. When did he see Jiang Ruan with such a happy and relaxed expression, such an undefended, heartfelt joy, must be It’s because of that man.
Jin Er patted Da Shan on the shoulder, and said, “Brother, let’s go out first. Our young wife and young master haven’t seen each other for a long time, so we can leave this room to them, ah.”
Jiang Xinzhi also went out. As long as Jiang Ruan was safe, he would relax. Although he would like to go in and see Jiang Ruan and his two little nephews now, Jiang Ruan is weak now, and he needs Xiao Shao even more. Stay by your side. Moreover, these days, he also saw with his own eyes how Xiao Shao tortured himself. With a sigh, Jiang Xinzhi turned around, closed the door, and walked out.
Qi Feng still spared no effort to explain the relationship between Jiang Ruan and Xiao Shao to the people in Qingping Village. At that time, he felt that the villagers treated them very strangely. Later, he finally realized that Jiang Ruan had told such a lie. In fact, Qi Feng is also very surprised why Jiang Ruan said that, I’m afraid Xiao Shao doesn’t know what he thinks when he hears it. The villagers were suspicious of them, but after Gui sister-in-law came out, she told the villagers about Xiao Shao’s behavior in the house that day. Many young daughter-in-laws were very moved by it. Later, they saw Xiao Shao doing nothing. After taking care of Jiang Ruan in great detail, those suspicions disappeared.
Liu Mengmeng was very angry. She didn’t expect Jiang Ruan to lie to her, nor did she expect that such a good-looking man was not a bad person and treated Jiang Ruan so well. However, she was relieved when she looked at the recently devastated mountain. Jiang Ruan has such a good-looking and considerate husband.
Jiang Ruan’s body recovered faster than expected, because this place is conducive to his body rest, so he stayed here for many more days. It took a month to prepare to leave. On the day of leaving, Jiang Ruan said to his sister-in-law and Dashan Xiaoshan brothers: “I deceived you at the beginning. I had no choice but to take it in. I’m sorry, but Jiang Ruan is grateful for being taken in these days.”
“If you find something useful in the future, just speak up.” Xiao Shao said.
Seeing the appearance of these two husbands singing women’s songs, Da Shan’s heart flashed with sourness. He knows how much he likes Jiang Ruan, but he also sees clearly that Jiang Ruan and Xiao Shao have a very good relationship, and there is no place for outsiders to intervene, and he has any qualifications to fight. But despite this, the boy couldn’t help but said: “You…If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come here to live.”
“You” naturally refers to Jiang Ruan, Xiao Shao’s face suddenly sank, and only said: “She won’t.” Then he said, “Farewell.” Turning around and pulling Jiang Ruan away, Jiang Ruan stared at him. At a glance, he was busy saying goodbye to Brother Dashan and Wife Gui, and then left with Xiao Shao’s people. After waiting for people to walk for a long time, Da Shan was still looking at the direction they were leaving, Gui sister-in-law sighed, thinking about her silly son, fearing that she would be sad for a while again.
After Jiang Ruan got out of the mountain, he rode back to Beijing in a carriage. In the carriage, Jiang Ruan leaned against Xiao Shao holding the child. Xiao Shao’s expression was still not very good, and he said, “When are you so stingy?”
Xiao Shao didn’t answer, Jiang Ruan smiled, and gathered the child in front of Xiao Shao: “You haven’t said a name yet.”
Xiao Shao’s expression eased, and said, “Ming Sheng, Nan Xu.”
“En? Ming Sheng is in the autumn breeze. There is a green tree and Chunraoxu in the south of the street. The name is very good, so you have already thought it out.” Jiang Ruan said: “Why are you so awkward, don’t say it when you think about it. But who is this? Who is the name of the older brother and the name of the younger sister?”
“Anything, wait for them to grow up and pick it yourself.”
“…”
The news that Jiang Ruan returned to the capital without incident spread throughout the capital that day. Jiang Ruan was also the host of Hong’an County, and now she is the emperor’s sister. The young master and young lady of Jinying Palace were naturally born. It became a sweet pastry. Jiang Ruan returned to Jinying Palace, Zhao Guang’s family, Zhao Jin’s family, Wen Feifei, Jiang Xinzhi, and almost all those who had a little friendship came. This is a top priority. Everyone will praise the twins after they arrive, but Steward Lin smiled from ear to ear. Dewdrop and Forsythia Tianzhu also relaxed and were happy every day.
Naturally, this was not just because of the joy of the incident, but also because the rebels of Xuanli were defeated.
This may be strange, but after another thought, there is nothing strange. Although there are many people in Xuanli, the scattered places are too far away, not close to the capital, and Xuanpei’s people are not blindly just military power. In many aspects, such as merchants, he can also be attracted by the forces. So when the people in Xuanli were still feeling overwhelmed by the lack of food and supplies for their soldiers, Xuan Pei easily solved the issue of military pay.
The people who followed Xuanli were not a group of diehards, and from time to time some turned their heads to surrender. Xuanli’s power is getting smaller and smaller, but Xiao Shao and Jiang Xinzhi’s people are because of the cruel situation of Jiang Ruan’s relationship. In this way, it is only a matter of time to wipe out Xuanli’s people.
Because Jiang Ruan’s body is still not fully recovered, it will probably take some time to recuperate, and Xuan Pei is busy with the affairs of the palace, and can’t go out to see her. The two hadn’t seen each other for a long time. However, Jiang Ruan’s return caused a lot of trouble among the people in the capital. Everyone knows that Jiang Ruan escaped after being abducted and was saved by kind people. Not only did he save his life, but also Hugging a pair of flesh and blood in the abdomen. They said one after another that it was Jiang Nguyen Phuoc’s fate, and good people are rewarded. The Jinying Palace, which was originally burdened by the rebels and pirates, has also changed among the people because of the fight against the rebels during this period.
In a flash, three months passed. During the three months, the chaotic party in the capital was gradually calmed down. The rest of the people scattered in Southern Xinjiang and Xuanli were just the end of the fight, just pretending to struggle. However, Qi Man and Xuan Li never showed up.
Jiang Ruan was coaxing the children in the house. The elder brother is Mingsheng, the younger sister is Nanxu, Xiao Mingsheng, and the two brothers and sisters Xiao Nanxu finally got rid of the wrinkled monkey appearance when they were born and became cute and jade snow. It’s just that my elder brother is as bright as Jiang Ruan, and has very moving eyes, but he has the same temperament as Xiao Shao. The younger sister looks a little bit like Xiao Shao, but she has a sweet temper. Everyone likes to reach out for a hug. Xiao Shao prefers her daughter. She hugs her every day, but she doesn’t treat her stinky son very much. Reluo, what Jiang Ruan is most used to seeing is the father and son sitting on the bed and staring at each other, each time Xiao Shao laughs.
Just after coaxing the child to fall asleep at night, I saw Xiao Shao coming back. Jiang Ruan got up before speaking, but Xiao Shao blocked the wall, and his lips fell.
“Child…” Jiang Ruan reminded him.
“Don’t worry.” Xiao Shao’s tone was a little aggrieved: “You only care about your children.”
“How old are you and still care about your children?” Jiang Ruan was funny and pushed him: “Tomorrow is the full moon seat, so be prepared.”
These two children are the treasures everyone sees now, and the full moon banquet is also to be done, otherwise Steward Lin will keep talking about it. In fact, the day has already passed, and it’s just that there are too many things now. Xiao Shao has one advantage, that is, since Jiang Ruan came back, he has been with her almost all day, and Jiang Ruan sometimes asked him to guard her regardless of Xiao Shao. It was probably also because of the previous events that Jiang Ruan couldn’t say anything anymore.
In the early morning of the second day, Jiang Ruan hugged Xiao Mingsheng and Xiao Nanxu out. Butler Lin is now also in the court and entered the hall, making it extremely natural for him to be a courtier and a housekeeper. The two new darlings in Fuzhong are even more caring, even closer than Xiao Shao’s father. I personally asked the people of Nanfengyuan to tailor two sets of small clothes, one pink and one blue. I don’t know if it was intentional. The pink one was given to Mingsheng, and the blue one was given to Nan Xu. Nan Xu has always been very well-behaved, he is happy in everything, but Ming Sheng has a stern face, wearing a pink dress, looking at the pink jade, Jiang Ruan is holding his chin, but he feels as if he sees one and Xiao Shao. With exactly the same face, the little man was very unhappy at the moment.
When Xiao Shao came to see him, Ming Sheng liked to ignore him. Nan Xu stretched out his hand to ask his father to hug him. Xiao Shao hugged him naturally. Ming Sheng looked at him, then turned to look at Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan knew what he wanted, so he hugged Ming Sheng, and Ming Sheng snapped a mouthful. The soft milky lips kissed Jiang Ruan’s lips. When Xiao Shao turned her head to see, she gave Ming Sheng a faint glance. Ming Sheng’s head shrank, and she turned her head casually, pretending not to see her own father’s eyes.
Accustomed to the two fathers and sons coming here every three to five, Jiang Ruan shrugged and said: “Go out and have a look, and everyone will come later.”
Xiao Shao hugged Nan Xu and Jiang Ruan and went out. When he arrived in the hall, the impatient people were already waiting. The hundred-day banquet between the youngest son and the young lady of the Jinying Palace is naturally going to cause a sensation in Beijing. Everyone knows that the current sage has a good relationship with Jiang Ruan. To please these two treasures is to please the emperor. The endless stream of gifts is carried to the Jinying Palace without money. Butler Lin is very worried when he lifts his chin. Where should I stack my gifts?
The people from the General’s Mansion came early, Zhao Guang and Li couldn’t put it down for the two children, and so did the grandmothers of the Zhao family. The gifts given immediately are more valuable than the other, Zhao Guang laughed loudly, and only Tao Mingsheng looked at it as a good material for martial arts training, and he would definitely cultivate it well in the future.
Lin Zixiang looked at Jiang Ruan and said, “This brother was born just like you. How can he be slapped with your husband’s expression in a vivid manner? He started to be so arrogant at such a young age, and he will have it in the future?”
Jiang Ruan also laughed: “Nan Xu has a good temper.”
Nan Xu is indeed good-tempered, so she leaned into Qi Feng’s arms cheerfully. She was very cute, with fair skin, and her eyes were as painted as Xiao Shao, but more pleasing than Mingsheng. She smiled when she saw people. He put his arms around Qi Feng’s neck and was about to kiss him. Qi Feng was waiting with a smile, but Xiao Shao snatched the child over, looked at him and walked away.
“…What do you mean by this? Hey the third child, aren’t you so stingy! That’s also my daughter!” Qi Feng said angrily.
“You gave birth?” Xiao Shao asked back.
Qi Feng was dumb, Xiao Shao had already walked away holding her daughter, and admonished as she walked: “Don’t get close to people casually in the future, there are many bad people.”
“Who is this?” Qi Feng felt aggrieved.
The guests arrived one after another. It was the smooth flow of the Hundred Days Banquet. Xiao Mingsheng and Xiao Nanxu looked very good. Although Xiao Mingsheng was cold, it did not affect the affection of the ladies present to him. Especially many young women, thinking that if Xiao Mingsheng could become his son-in-law in the future, it would be great.
Jiang Ruanzi was also welcoming people with a smile. Since the birth of the child, her whole person looked more gentle, and perhaps happier, so the edges and corners were smoothed out.
This one-hundred-day banquet was held until the evening, and Jinying Palace was full of traffic, and it has not been so lively for a long time. Xiao Shao’s thoughtfulness towards Jiang Ruan was seen by everyone, and everyone was very envious. But at the end when Jiang Ruan and Xiao Shao stood at the door to see the guests, they only heard the nanny holding the child screaming. Everyone was shocked. Before they could speak, they saw Xiao Shao’s figure flashing, and Jiang Ruan was shocked. Once, immediately ran back madly.
But I saw the nurse lying on the ground, the one standing on the other side was Qi Man, and the one who fell on the ground turned out to be Xuanli.
Xiao Shao held a child in one hand, Jiang Ruan walked up quickly, paying no attention to anything. Ming Sheng and Nan Xu were not in any trouble, Nan Xu blinked and looked at her, as if he still didn’t understand what was going on.
Ye Feng said: “They came out suddenly, they started too quickly, Qi Man wanted to kill the child, Xuan Li…blocked the knife.” Ye Feng said that he was very confused. Everyone knew about Xuan Li and Jin. The Royal Mansion of England is a mortal enemy, why would he take a cut for the child? This is something that no one can understand.
Xiao Shao took good care of the child, and all the guards stood by Qi Man. Qi Man stared at Xuanli in disbelief. She asked, “Why?” Everyone’s ears couldn’t stand it, and she said: “Why? Why? Why?”
Why? She entered here today in order to kill these two bastards. This is Xiao Shao’s son and Xiang Xiaoyuan’s grandson. She hates that it is impossible for Southern Xinjiang to seize the Dajin Dynasty this time. NS. As long as these two bastards are killed, she won’t be in vain. It was so easy to bet all the chips up, and what a price to pay for his body to lurch in, but they were all ruined by Xuan Li in front of him. Why did he suddenly rush out at the last moment to take a cut for that cheap species! why why!
Jiang Ruan looked down at Xuan Li, half of Xuan Li lying on the ground, looking very embarrassed, the knife hit his heart. Jiang Ruan’s eyes were suspicious, vigilant, and puzzled, but there was no trace of affection. It was a suspicious look that looked at his mortal enemy resolutely, Xuanli gave a wry smile, why, he could say why, he spit out a mouthful of blood, and said: “So…you really hate me.”
Jiang Ruan’s eyes widened suddenly. What did these words mean, she looked at Xuanli, and an unbelievable thought came to her mind.
“You really hate me…” Xuan Li said again.
“I have never understood why it became like this in the end, this shouldn’t have happened, why is Xuan Pei. Later I understood, you are the variable.” Xuan Li said. These words may not be understood in the ears of others, but Jiang Ruan knows what he is talking about. He is talking about rebirth, and he is talking about things from the previous life. He got it.
Jiang Ruan stared at Xuanli and didn’t say a word, but it was Qi Man who couldn’t help but rushed forward, but her expression became a little worried. After hearing the news, Xia Qing was surprised to see Qi Man’s somewhat crazy appearance, and said: “Why does she look so abnormal, it seems she has lost her mind?”
Qi Man naturally won’t get lost for no reason, since it can be fooled in today, it is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp. It’s just that Xia Qing became more and more energetic, saying: “I’m not mistaken, she did take Gu worm. This is the mother-child Gu, she took the mother Gu, the knife just now–” He suddenly looked at Xuan on the ground. Li: “Fortunately!”
In just a few words, everyone understood. Qi Man wanted to plant sub-gu on the children, and Qi Feng asked, “What kind of Gu is that?”
“Heart Devouring Gu.” Xia Qing said: “If she succeeds, she will have to save her life, otherwise, if she dies, the person who subscribes Gu will also die. And this Gu is very poisonous, and the person who planted Gu is extremely painful. Have their own antidote. Once controlled…” Once controlled, wouldn’t Ming Sheng and Nan Xu both fall into Qi Man’s hands.
“What a vicious woman!” Steward Lin said angrily: “It really looks the same as before!”
Xiao Shao held the child and frowned tightly. Nan Xu didn’t know when it happened. Instead, he giggled as if it were funny, but the laughter seemed to suddenly anger Qi Man. She stared at Nan Xu intently, suddenly laughed, and said: “Xiang Xiaoyuan, you are very proud of it!”
Everyone is familiar with the name Xiang Xiaoyuan, but Xiao Shao’s life experience is only known to a few people, and it is still strange that Qi Man called Xiang Xiaoyuan to Nan Xu. Xiao Shao’s expression became cold, but Qi Man continued regardless of his intentions: “I am not as you wish. No matter how you please him, I said that one day I will take him away from you! Now it’s good! Now, he is dead, why are you still alive?”
“Heart-biting Gu started to bite back.” Xia Qing said: “But what kind of stimulation was she on? Why did she seem to be suddenly excited?”
Everyone didn’t know what was going on, but Jiang Ruan knew well that Qi Man came here today with a mortal heart. Who knew that when he was about to die, he was disturbed by Xuanli, and saw that he caught up with him. He didn’t get anything for his life, how could he accept Qiman’s hard temper. In addition, seeing Nan Xu who was safe and sound in Xiao Shao’s arms, I’m afraid it also touched the most hated place in my heart.
The guards were all guarding Qi Man’s sudden action, but seeing Qi Man had lost his mind and seemed to have lost his ability at the moment, it was like a mad woman.
“You want to harm my child, but it depends on my answer or not.” Jiang Ruan said coldly: “This alone is not enough for you to die 10,000 times.”
For those who want to hurt their children, Jiang Ruan has never been merciless. Qi Man seemed to gradually wake up again. She looked at Jiang Ruan carefully. After watching it for a long time, she understood. She said: “It’s you Jiang Ruan, I know you, at the beginning of Shangshu Mansion, your mother died so easily in the end. Thanks to me anyway.”
“你说什么?”蒋阮一怔,上前两步厉声问道:“说清楚!”
“阿阮,”萧韶握住她的手,示意她别激动,琦曼带笑的声音传来:“我看你娘也是个痴情女子,跟了蒋权那样的人也是可怜。不过我这辈子最见不得的就是别人痴情,所以你们府上的夏研想要除了她的时候,我就送了一味药。本来那药可以将你也一并药死的,谁知道最后却教你逃过一劫。也是你运气好,不然的话,如今哪里还有这个你!不过你也得感谢我,若非是我的那味药,夏研整死你娘的手段,只怕是比这更凶残一万倍!”
“你——”蒋阮心中一冷,当初她就觉得那毒如此无声无息,便是夏研再如何手眼通天也有些奇怪,如今倒像是想明白了。她平静了一下,才问:“你为什么这么做?”
为什么这么做?琦曼隐性瞒名留在尚书府,不过是因为想要借此一个安静的地方来实行自己的计划,在这样的情况下,最是无声无息才好。怎么还会暗中掀起波澜,在尚书府,她并没有和任何势力有敌对的地方。
琦曼又是一笑,这么多年了,她用了彻底改换自己的容貌的药水,早已变成了一张平凡无奇的脸,哪里还有原先艳光四射的公主模样。可是即便这样,南疆公主的风采还是留在了她的骨子中,这一刻,这一颦一笑,似乎又回到了那些光鲜肆意的年华,几乎有些妖媚起来。她道:“为什么?我只是觉得这样的日子大约也无趣了些,我最讨厌痴情人,痴情有什么好?那女人既然如此执迷不悟,我倒不如让她付出性命的代价,岂不是很好玩?正房又如何?还不是只能落得一个自凋零的下场?”
这话萧韶却是明白的,向小园当初可不就是太子妃,可是琦曼一心想要嫁入东宫,可向小园本就在民间名声极好,更是当着琦曼的面亲自告诉洪熙太子,这世上她只知道一生一世一双人,无侧室无姬妾,这才是人生。大约也就是在那一刻,对于正室的恨便深深地镌刻在了琦曼心底。这么多年了,她竟然从来没有忘记过。
“这世上的痴情人太多,即便是受到惩罚,也有天注定,你却不能代表天意。”蒋阮冷冷道。琦曼也是害死她娘的凶手,也是害死萧韶爹娘的凶手,更试图伤害自己的孩子。这样的人,即使再悲惨再可怜,都不值得同情。她哂笑一声,眼角眉梢全是讽刺:“更何况,你要知道,洪熙太子从未爱过你,你所谓的自怨自艾,都是你自己的一厢情愿,自作多情。何必要让自己过的这般不堪?”
“你胡说!”琦曼一下子像是被蒋阮戳到了痛楚,立刻骂道,似乎还想要起来伤害蒋阮,锦二一个闪身将她动作制住,琦曼差点跌倒,扶着一边的桌子才阴冷的一笑道:“你懂什么?你有他宠爱,过的高高在上的日子,什么都不用想,勾一勾手指头就有无数人为你赴汤蹈火。你没有过一个人挣扎的时候,你没有感受过爱而不得的滋味,你什么都没有经历过,你有什么资格说我!”
“我有过。”蒋阮平静道:“我有过一个人在黑暗中求生的时候,有过被背叛的时候,有过所有的人都不可信看不到前路的时候,有过爱而不得最后发现自己是个笑话的时候。你所谓的被背叛,我只能说,我曾经托付终生的信赖,最后让我付出了惨痛的代价。拜他所赐,有了你现在看到的我。我现在得到的有所少,当初失去的就有多少。这全都不可能成为理由。”蒋阮淡淡道:“你若是想要得到如我现在这么多,这一世,你大约也需要付出惨痛的代价才行。”
萧韶握着蒋阮的手一紧,他知道蒋阮说的是什么意思。琦曼却是不明白,她突然惨笑一声,捂住自己的心口,那一处蛊虫已经开始活动,于此同时,地上的宣离面上也显出了痛苦的神色。
子母蛊一同开始发作,琦曼的眼睛瞪得很大,似乎是要哭,可是眼眶干涩,根本没有一滴眼泪。她在京城隐姓埋名这么多年,无非就是要报仇。当初洪熙太子不仅羞辱了她,还害得她成为了国灭的罪魁祸首。她要拿回原先失去的尊严和土地,可是自从她和宣离合作的第一日开始,她就知道,这个盟友一点也不可信。
宣离狡猾而多疑,两人都不过是互相利用罢了。而南疆国虽然恢复了一些势力,要和大锦朝分庭抗礼还是有些苦难。明知不可为而为之,琦曼比丹真看的清楚,可是她为什么还要坚持,那是因为,若是不坚持着报复的这个信念,她不知道自己还能不能活下去。
她知道就算帮助宣离夺得大业,宣离要做的第一件事就是会过河拆桥。可是琦曼还是做了,她看着萧韶爱上了蒋阮,她心中冷笑。她看的清楚,蒋阮是比她还要冷血的人,蒋阮能对自己的生父如此虚以委蛇,这女子心上已经没有一点情了。她想要看萧韶的悲剧和笑话,可是萧韶竟然成功了,蒋阮竟然嫁给了萧韶,他们伉俪情深的模样深深的刺痛了琦曼的心,她甚至因此而加快了自己报复的步伐,也就将本就有诸多不对的计划暴露出更多的漏洞。
这一次,她也只是想尽自己最大的能力,最后能做的无非就是杀了蒋阮的两个孩子。没有一个女人不会疼爱自己的孩子,当初向小园和洪熙太子是抱了必死的决心,即使是这样他们都留下保护萧韶的人。若是孩子走了,萧韶和蒋阮这一生都将活在痛苦之中。
可是这最后一个愿望,也都落空了,琦曼没有想到的是,最后挡了那一刀的竟然是宣离。是这个一直和她同仇敌忾,如今已经被锦英王府弄得失去一切的宣离,这样的人,为什么会救了蒋阮的儿女?琦曼想不明白,也不再想要想明白了,这个蛊没有解药,她知道除非自己死亡,就要日日接受这样棰心刺骨的疼痛。她凄惨的笑了,有些不明白这一生究竟在做什么。从爱上洪熙太子那一刻开始,这一生就开始了错误,她回不了头了。她知道自己是错的,可是没有办法,她不能回头了。
于是到了最后,南疆国公主的身份没有了,南疆过也没有了,她的一生就此葬送在陌生的过度,虚度了花一样的年华,爱过的男人至死都没有看过她一眼,更别提放在心上。她恨的女人虽然死得早,可是至死都拥有那个男人的爱。她一开始就输了。
琦曼惨叫一声,突然伸手从怀中掏出一把烟雾一样的药粉,夏青忙叫道:“小心有毒!”南疆人本就是最善于施毒,众人连忙捂住口鼻。萧韶一下子挡在蒋阮面前,将她和孩子们的头按在自己怀中。待烟雾散尽,地上哪里还有琦曼的踪迹。
“逃了。少主,现在去追?”锦一道。
“不必了,她中了蛊,这子蛊在这里,就等于控制住了她。”夏青看了一眼地上的人。
宣离也受了琦曼那一把毒烟的影响,整个人显得痛苦不堪。齐风好奇的打量着宣离,道:“这是真正的宣离嘛?怎么突然做了好人?不会有什么阴谋吧。”宣离出手救了两个孩子,到底都是一件让人无法理解的事情。宣离便不是滥好心的人,更何况这还是仇人的孩子。
蒋阮冷冷的看着地上的宣离,他是知道了前生的事情吗?那他现在是什么意思?是在愧疚所以才这样做?这未免也实在是太自以为是了。所有的事情并不是可以这样轻易就被原谅的。
她微微一笑:“方才多谢八殿下出手了。”
宣离有些茫然的将目光转移到蒋阮身上,他喃喃道:“阮儿。”
蒋阮后退一步,萧韶将她护在身后,手中的匕首已然亮了出来。齐风惊讶的看着宣离,宣离这话是什么意思。虽然也曾从别人嘴里听过宣离似乎从前也打过蒋阮的主意,可是这样亲密的称呼……倒是有些奇特了。
他道:“你……很恨我吧。”
恨他吧。恨他前世曾经那样对待过她,利用她伤害她,最后害得她死于非命。宣离终于明白了为什么这么长久以来,一直感觉蒋阮好似对他含着深深的恨意,原来那都不是错觉。兵败如山倒,他抛弃了原先光鲜亮丽的皇子生活,东躲西藏,背负着骂名,直到睡了一觉,好似梦到了十年春秋,猛地醒过来,世上已经沧海桑田。
那个梦里是完全不一样的人生,他得到了一切,得到了皇位,高高在上,那个位置却是以牺牲了一个人为代价。那个梦里的蒋阮,温柔美丽,笑的很甜,一心一意的爱他,然后被他利用的再也不剩一滴利用价值。
那个梦里的最后,他大业已成,却还是时时感到孤寂,只要想起从前那个温柔美丽的倩影,便觉得莫名心痛。
他不是什么好人,也不会因此而愧疚,为什么会心痛,无非是因为他发现在那些利用她的日子里,逢场作戏中竟也不知不觉付出了一些真心。这些真心看上去微不足道于他也无足轻重,却在后日的梦魇中一日日的折磨他,待他发觉这真心的时候,斯人已去。这世上再也不会有那样一个全心全意爱他的人了。
他想那大约并不是一个梦,或许是预示着什么。他明白了为什么这一生自己看见蒋阮的时候,总是忍不住觉得她是属于自己的。蒋阮的确是属于他的,不过那是曾经。被伤害过的梦里如是,这一次,不仅是他梦醒了,蒋阮也醒了,所以她清醒的投入了萧韶的怀抱,她不遗余力的对付他,将他视为死敌,最后得到了一个和梦里截然不同的结局。
宣离跟着琦曼来到这里,他知道琦曼是想要杀了蒋阮的两个孩子,他也想要抢回蒋阮。到了现在,他知道自己大势已去,已经没有了卷土重来的机会,宣沛把机会把持的紧紧的,他还剩下什么?他什么都不剩下了,可他是宣离,他是从来都不会认输,懂得隐忍蛰伏的宣离,若是梦里的蒋阮,即使是他一无所有,也会毫不犹豫的跟着他吧。
所以他不甘心,他什么都没有留下,如果能留下蒋阮呢?那个女人本来就是属于他的。
可是当他看到琦曼要对蒋阮的孩子下手的时候,突然想到梦中最后看到蒋阮的场景,她跪在九重高的台阶之上,披头散发,美丽的脸上充满绝望,而她怀中的孩子傻傻的呆着,那是宣沛。她将孩子护的很紧,即使是到了穷途末路的时候,她也不会放着自己的孩子不管。
如果蒋阮的孩子死了,她也会如同行尸走肉般的活着的吧。宣离突然想,梦里蒋阮什么都没有了,这一次,又要再毁了她一次吗?
他突然犹豫了起来,而琦曼已经出手,那一刻,宣离什么都没想,自己迎了上去。他也不知道自己为什么要这么做,倒下去的时候,他的眼神甚至还有些茫然。
“我当然恨你。”蒋阮道:“即使你现在救了我的孩子,我还是恨你。”她美丽的眼睛里看不到一丝一毫的轻易。宣离突然就想起来了,是的,蒋阮在梦中,从未用过这样冷的眼神看他。她总是微笑着,温柔的与他说话,她总是无条件的顺从他的主意。
“阮儿,我不是故意的……”他想说什么,他想说自己不是故意要利用她的,可话出口,他却突然发现自己词穷了。从梦中到梦外,每一次见到蒋阮,他的心思都是利用。利用她得到名利,得到天下无双的那个位置。可是最后得到的时候却又发现,一切并未有自己想象的那般好,他后悔了,苦果只有往自己肚里吞。
“宣离,你什么都不必说。你欠我的,我已经自己讨了回来,你的江山,你的筹谋,你的大业,如今都已经毁了。现在,只要你的命,你我之间便已经两情,日后黄泉路上相见,也是路人,再无瓜葛。”她说的决绝,却还是清晰地说明,要宣离的一条命。
曾经的温柔缱绻现在只剩下刀枪相对了吗?她的脸上看不到一丝一毫的动容,宣离想,或许那真的只是一个梦罢了。那是在他人生尽头,无比荒谬的一个梦。其实他宁愿那只是一个梦,如果蒋阮一开始就与他是仇敌,一开始就想着如何扳倒她,一开始就没有对他有过别的情意,那该多好。没有那些利用和伤害,也没有遗憾和后悔,从一相见手中持着的就是刀刃而非花朵,这才是正确的。
可是他也知道,那的确不是一个梦。她曾经是属于他然后又离开了,他不知道自己究竟在干什么。他道:“我爱过你。”
萧韶额上青筋一动,夏青和齐风都看傻了,这宣离是活腻歪了还是怎么回事,怎么就当着萧韶的面给蒋阮表白心上情意。可宣离是这么多情的人吗?
蒋阮微微一笑,偏着头看他,目光中竟也有几分天真的艳丽,只是瞳孔深处却是透出冷意来,嘴里吐出的话更是残酷无情,她道:“与我何干?”
与我何干?的确,这与她何干?宣离自己也不知道自己为什么会这么做?他的身子变得很重,他想,那个梦里的最后,他的确是发现自己爱过一个女子的,只是面前的女子眉目冷艳,定与当初的不是一个人了。
要么那只是一个无关紧要的梦,要么,梦里的女子早已死了,面前的这个女子,不过是另一个人。他突然自嘲的一笑,也不知道自己是在笑些什么,只是笑着笑着却又有泪落下来,成王败寇,这一局,是他输了。而他至死,都不知道自己输在什么地方,或许那个梦可以给他启发,他却不愿意相信那个梦。
“萧韶,我不如你。”他道。
“带下去。”萧韶面色一冷,转身拉住蒋阮的手,低声嘱咐道:“小心身子。”
三日后,失踪了的前南疆国公主琦曼被人找到,她竟是自己站在城门之上,穿了一身嫁衣,噬心蛊的原因令她的容颜苍老憔悴的厉害,甚至看上去有几分可怖。然而这样的情况下,仍扔做出少女的举动,让人看着便觉得诡异而不寒而栗。
Standing on the wall, Qi Man smiled wildly, not knowing what he was laughing, and finally jumped off the wall. It’s a bit like a princess of Nanjiang, but she has done too much evil. The people have never liked her. They didn’t have a good word. They scolded the wicked for evil. At the same time, they were locked up in prison. Xuanli died at the same time because of the child-mother Gu attack.
Xuan Li was not eligible to enter the imperial tomb because he was a chaotic party and the murderer who killed the first emperor. The emperor kindly allowed him to be buried, but he invited a celestial master when he was buried, but he didn’t know what it meant. Some people speculate that the young emperor did this in order to seal Xuanli’s soul and prevent him from reincarnation. Some people think that this is too cruel. After all, it was born from the same root, so there is no need to worry about it. Some people think that this is a good move. After all, Xuanli’s act of killing his father and rebelling is really heinous.
Immediately afterwards, the emperor named Princess Jinying as the first-class imperial wife, and gave Jinying the hereditary title of succession to the palace. Xiao Mingsheng and Xiao Nanxu had become identities that no one dared to move in the Dajin Dynasty at a very young age, not to be exaggerated than the emperor’s nobles.
The ministers who followed the young emperor at the beginning also have new prospects, especially the young nobility of the court, such as Liu Min and Mo Cong and others, seem to have become the mainstay of the new generation. As for Lin Wei, after assisting the emperor ascended the throne, he gradually retired, only saying that he would go back to be a housekeeper. Everyone just thinks that he is playing a trick many years ago, and they don’t bother to care about it.
The marriage between Jiang Xinzhi and Zhao Jin is also going on, but Xia Qing and Lin Zixiang are not so smooth. Lin Zixiang is not so satisfied with Xia Qing. Xia Qing still has a long way to go to chase his wife. Dewdrop, Forsythia and marriage are also in preparation. In short, the mansion is full of joy, but the most joyful ones are about two little guys.
Xiao Mingsheng and Xiao Nanxu grew up very fast, and they were very cute again. Xiao Mingsheng always learned to be as cold as his own father, except for Jiang Ruan, everyone had a straight face. Steward Lin said that he had exactly the same temper as Xiao Shao when he was a child. As for Nan Xu, who always smiled, he was a secretly messenger. These two darlings kept everyone in the Jinying Palace all day long. Jiang Ruan was also busy, and it was the beginning of spring in a flash.

As they were talking, they saw a “plop” on the small bed on one side, and the two looked at it at the same time. The two siblings who were asleep didn’t know when they were awake.
