Chapter 373 The sanctimonious hypocrite
The concierge said in a formal manner, "The prince's mansion is closed and thanks the guests. His Majesty also issued an order not to disturb the prince's concubine's rest. Please ask the girl to go back..."
The girl's anxious eyes were gloomy when she heard this, but she still said unwillingly: "Old man, I really have something to ask the prince's concubine. Please be kind to you. I will repay you a lot in the future..."
The concierge said with embarrassment: "Girl, it's not that the young one is embarrassed by you, but it's really not possible, unless... you have a token for the princess to enter and exit, and the young one can pass it on for you..."
Token?
The girl shook her head blankly. She had no tokens. Her look of dizziness and tears were not enough to interpret her despair now. In such a huge capital, who else could she ask for help?
The doorman looked at the poor girl with no help. Although he didn't know her identity, who could interact with the princess? He could not offend anyone, but he was not good at letting him in casually, so he could only say politely, "Miss, please come back..."
The girl's face was full of disappointment, but it was not her style to sit and wait for death. No matter what, she still had to take another try.
Thinking of this, she said goodbye to the door, turned around and was about to get on the carriage again. But she suddenly jumped out of the carriage that had just arrived and stopped suddenly, and one of them said, "Girl, why are you running around? Let the old slave find it easy..."
"I……"
Before she could speak, she saw the car curtains being rolled up, revealing the face of Xia Rong, the wife of Dingbei Hou. She looked helpless and said, "Girl Wei, why are you running away from home with a temper? Your mother is so worried that you are so worried that you faint..."
"I..." Xia Wei had only had time to say this word, and the woman who clamped her behind her pinched her suddenly. She took a breath of air conditioning, and was so angry that she was about to make a noise, swearing to ruin the reputation of the Xia family.
Unexpectedly, another woman covered her mouth and refused to let her make a sound, and then used this force to escort her into the carriage. The speed was extremely fast. The doorman who didn't dare to look up would dare to interfere in these noble affairs? When he saw it, he just pretended that he didn't see it, not to mention that he didn't see it very clearly. Besides, the elders in the family came to pick her up in person, so there was no room for outsiders to interrupt.
Seeing Xia Wei getting on the carriage, Xia Rong looked at her coldly, but when she turned to look at the door, she smiled on her face, "I'll tell the princess, "I'll tell the princess, my girl Wei has had some conflicts with her family. I'll go to the mansion in person to explain to the princess, so I won't disturb you."
Rong Jingqiu is very ill herself, I am afraid she doesn't have the energy to care about Xia Wei's affairs now, so she just needs to say this with high sound. Anyway, when the matter is handled, how to explain it is just that she just talks it casually when she touches her lips, and without any evidence. Even the prince's concubine can't take care of the Xia family's housework.
The concierge replied "Yes".
The carriage set off and hurriedly left without waiting for his voice to fall.
Along the way, Xia Wei was covered in her mouth and could not speak. She could only look at Xia Rong, the hypocritical aunt. She always thought she was the only good person in the Xia family, and now she realized that this person's black heart is one of the best in the Xia family.
"Don't look at me like this. If you want to blame me, you will blame you for your life." Xia Rong lowered his eyes slightly, "I married into the Xia family and tied it with the Xia family. I will naturally be fine if the Xia family is not good, so I can't be much better. Do you understand where you are stupid?"
Xia Wei has never seen such a shameless person, and he can be so righteous even if he helps the evil.
Xia Rong didn't ask this girl to understand, but said with a regretful look on her face, "You could have a way out, but you didn't know how to cherish it. This is no wonder my aunt..."
A hypocritical hypocrite!
Xia Wei's eyes were filled with resentment, accusations, and even curses.
Xia Rong felt that she was not understood in painstaking efforts, so she sighed slightly, and stopped making a sound. However, someone stopped the Xia family's carriage at this time. She immediately alerted and signaled that the mothers would like Xia Wei and would not give her a chance to make a sound.
Everything was ready, and then she signaled the maid to lift a corner of the curtain so that people would not let anyone see the whole picture in the carriage. When she looked at it, she saw Sun Chongxiu from the Ping'an Mansion saluting her respectfully. She smiled and said, "So it's Mr. Sun. Are your grandparents so happy recently?"
"All grandparents at home are safe." Sun Chongxiu said respectfully, and when he looked at Xia Rong again, he said a little embarrassedly, "I don't know how Miss Xia is?"
Xia Wei was sick, so the original marriage date was postponed. He was worried that he had visited Xia’s family, but the Xia family refused to visit him on the grounds that Xia Wei’s illness would be contagious. He could not see anyone and said that he was not disappointed was a lie, but what the Xia family said was impeccable. He was just Xia Wei’s fiancé, not his husband, so he could only leave according to etiquette.
However, when he visited again, the Xia family still had the same argument, which made him feel suspicious. Later, the Xia family directly refused his visit and asked the Bingren to pass on a message that Xia Wei's condition became more and more serious, and she was afraid that it would not be cured. In order not to drag down the reputation of the prince of the noble family, the marriage would probably be cancelled.
This came too suddenly. The mother frowned and asked for his opinion. It seemed democratic, but the mother had already decided. "If Miss Xia really died, you will be called a wife-beating in the future. How can you discuss marriage again? According to the mother's intention, it is better to do what the Xia family said. Let's dissolve the marriage. Anyway, why should a real man have no wife?"
But he didn't want to. He was very satisfied with Xia Wei's fiancée. Now, looking at the actions of the Xia family, he always felt something was wrong. If he had no name for his fiancé, he would be afraid that he would not get news about her anymore.
The elders of the Xia family avoided him, so when they saw the carriage of the Xia family appear, he stopped him without thinking about it, just to ask Xia Wei's condition.
Xia Rong sighed, "It's hard for Mr. Sun to still think about her. This is also the blessing of our Wei girl. Unfortunately, she is so blessed that she can't get up. No matter how sad or anxious I feel, I can't..." At this point, she pulled out her handkerchief and pressed the tears that squeezed out from the corners of her eyes, "My poor Wei girl..."
Xia Rong's words were sincere and sincere. No matter how clever Sun Chongxiu was, she was embarrassed to defeat the drama she was acting at this time.
Xia Wei, who was held tightly in the conversation between the two, could hear it clearly. At this time, she struggled desperately, and wanted to make a sound for Sun Chongxiu outside to hear it. She even opened her mouth to bite the hand of the old man who covered her mouth.
But she bit her hand and blood flowed. The woman still refused to let go. Xia Wei felt unprecedented despair covering her whole body.
Xia Rong and Sun Chongxiu exchanged a few more greetings, and then said goodbye to the junior on the excuse that there was something in the mansion.
Sun Chongxiu could not only ride a horse to let the Xia family's carriage pass. When he was in self-contemplation, he narrowed his eyes slightly because the carriage passed by the dust raised. When he opened it again, he seemed to see a familiar figure in the Xia family's carriage. When he was shocked and was about to take a closer look, the figure suspected to be Xia Wei disappeared instantly. Was he just dazzled?
"Miss Xia in the carriage, have you seen it?" he asked the servant beside him.
The servant looked at him with a pitiful look, "Young Master, are you dazzled? Where is Miss Xia? You forgot that the doctor in the mansion also suggested that you drink more chrysanthemum tea this morning, saying that it can clear your liver and brighten your eyes. This is not to say that the young master is dazzled by reading books..."
This long and long statement successfully made Sun Chongxiu feel self-doubted, or he was really dazzled.
Xia Wei in the carriage burst into tears after she was pressed for a while and then pressed down. This time, the women had tried their best and she could no longer resist and fight for the glimmer of hope.
"It's really bad luck." Xia Rong said unhappily.
Xia Wei, who was taken back by her family, was completely locked up because she had escaped once. The people guarding her this time were very strict and she would never give her a chance to run out.
Rong Jingqiu couldn't receive the detailed content of what happened here, but she could know a rough idea. She frowned and said to Zhao Yu next to her, "Xia Wei's wedding date has been postponed."
Zhao Yu glanced at the letter in her hand, "Qinglan told you."
Rong Jingqiu nodded, "Because her wedding date has arrived, I can't attend it thousands of miles away, so I can't give her a generous Tianru chat to express my apology? So I sent a letter to the mansion and asked them to prepare the gift they wanted to send, and then sent a letter to the princess, but I did not know that I received such a reply."
Zhao Yu said, "Do you know the reason?"
"The princess' letter said that the Xia family said to the outside world that Xia Wei was sick, so the wedding date was postponed. However, she had visited her and the Xia family refused to see her, saying that the disease was contagious..." At this point, Rong Jingqiu stopped because this trick was too familiar.
Zhao Yu couldn't help laughing, "It turns out that they are all playing with you. It's a good thing that the Xia family thought of following the trend."
Rong Jingqiu gave Zhao Yu a blank look, "You still have the heart to laugh. I'm almost in a hurry now. Something must have happened to her..."
Zhao Yu replied to her without any conscience, "It's obvious."
Rong Jingqiu glanced at him again dissatisfiedly. Xia Wei was not someone else. She had kindness to her in her previous life, so this kindness was naturally to be repaid. Thinking of Xia Wei's past, she suddenly said in shock, "Xia Wei knows that old past. No, if the Xia family can treat her like this, she should know who the person is worse than the beast, so the Xia family is like a big enemy..."
Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered the low-key Empress Dowager Xia. This almost forgotten empress dowager has always shown love for her niece. It seems that she has a true intention. However, Xia Wei's wedding date has been postponed, and Empress Dowager Xia cannot not know, but she did nothing, which is not normal.
It can only be said that the Xia family reached a high degree of unification on this matter, that is, they must cover up this scandal tightly, so even Empress Dowager Xia compromised.
Who has such great power in the Xia family that the whole family can't tell the whole family? This beast she has never been able to find seems to have an answer.
Except for the head of the master Dingbei Hou, who has such a weight?
She looked up at Zhao Yu, who happened to be looking at her too. The couple had always had a tacit understanding, and there was no exception in this matter.
Rong Jingqiu said, "I never thought about it but would be Dingbei Hou..."
She had met Dingbei Hou. He was a person who felt quite elegant. He was much better than Xia Wei's father and was even more unlucky. Looking back now, it turns out that a dog that doesn't bark will bite people.
"Xia Wei is in danger this time." She quickly gave a decision, and then stood up with a firm look on her face, "No, I can't stand it and refuse to save me."
It’s like in the previous life, Xia Wei suddenly appeared and saved herself. This is her benefactor.
Zhao Yu held her hand and stroked it gently, "Don't be anxious, it's useless to hurry now. If you want to save someone, can I stop you?"
"I...I know that this is not good for me. We can't take care of the affairs of the capital when we go out. It's too far. Even if I put my wings on, I can't fly back. However, I really can't watch her be killed," she pointed at the place of her heart. "My conscience will be uneasy..."
"Follower, I know." Zhao Yu reached out and took her into his arms, gently rubbed her back to comfort her emotions. He didn't know why she had such a good impression of Xia Wei. In his opinion, this girl had nothing special, but in his wife's heart, she obviously had a unique weight.
"Arrange it well, people can still be rescued, but what if they are saved? This is the key." Zhao Yu analyzed, "If the Xia family really wants to deal with this matter simply and roughly, they will send her a pair of strong poison on their way. However, since they have chosen a roundabout way that is not suspicious, it is to kill people with a blunt knife. Slowly killing them, which will leave us time to save people."
Rong Jingqiu said calmly at this time, "Let's save people first. As for the future, it depends on God's will."
After this incident, what would Xia Wei think? Will her temperament change drastically?
She had an answer in her heart.
When she looked at Zhao Yu again, she wanted to speak but stopped. No matter what, she had to keep the green mountains before there was firewood.
With a decision in her heart, she no longer made things difficult for her and said to Zhao Yu directly, "I will go back to my room and write a letter to the princess first, and there are some things that need her to deal with..." In addition, she also wanted to write another letter to Sun Chongxiu in secret. No matter what, she wanted Xia Wei to choose again.
There was news that Xia Wei was seriously ill and the Sun family had not yet withdrawn from the marriage, which means that Sun Chongxiu still has some affection for Xia Wei.
She doesn't want Xia Wei to regret it in the future.
She left Zhao Yu's temporary study room in a hurry, but just walked out of the door a few steps when she met Bo Jingran. When she saw her suddenly, she didn't even stop.
But Bo Jingran stopped him and looked at him very carefully, "Young Master Rong looks very familiar."
Through him, you can see the shadow of Rong Jingqiu.
Rong Jingqiu looked up at him with a calm expression, "Young Master Bo should know that I am the ninth prince's concubine, and everyone is the same ancestor, and there is nothing wrong with it." After that, he bowed to Bo Jingran, "I still have important things to do, so I will say goodbye first."
