Volume 1: Swan Goose Chapter 83: Floating Life and Clear Dreams Are Yellow (1)
Many stars are arranged like chess pieces, making the night sky look very deep. The moon that has not yet set in the west is like a solitary lamp lighting up the cliff.
Everyone was sleeping soundly, and everything was quiet. However, a shrill cry came from Wang Jing's mansion. The frightened birds left their nests, and the sound of roosters and dogs barking could be heard in the courtyard.
Mrs. Ruan woke up from her drowsiness, only to find that she was lying naked in a strange room, and the wretched-looking Wang Jing was lying on top of her, doing dirty things!
She immediately understood what had happened, and her face turned pale with fright. She was out of her mind and couldn't help but screamed: "Help! Help! Who can save me! My husband, my husband, where are you?"
Wang Jing clamped her chin and said with a sinister smile: "This is my mansion, no one will come in to save you! Besides, you have lost your virginity to me now, so there is no need to resist."
Mrs. Ruan glared at him angrily, gritted her teeth and said, "Wang Jing, you dare to bully me like this, do you know who my uncle is? Aren't you afraid that he will come to seek your life?"
"Hahahaha!" Wang Jing laughed wildly and said: "To tell you the truth, I have touched all the emperor's women, can your uncle be more powerful than the emperor?"
Mrs. Ruan resisted with all her might, shouting uncontrollably: "Mr. sir, sir, save me!"
But Wang Jing laughed even more crazily: "Ruan Lang? Ruan Lang has probably reached the underworld a long time ago, and there is no way he can come back to save you!"
The innocent Mrs. Ruan immediately stopped crying. She suddenly remembered the scene of Ruan Lang lying in a pool of blood before she fainted. She stared blankly at the ceiling, giving up her struggle and herself.
There was a rapid knock on the door, and a servant shouted outside the door: "Master! Something bad has happened!"
Being disappointed, Wang Jing yelled at the door: "Which son of a bitch is yelling at me? Don't you know that I am in high spirits?"
The voice outside the door continued to shout: "Master, the people from the Royal Guards Department are here to report that Pingyang Hou and his son died in the imperial prison just now!"
Wang Jing's whole body trembled, and he rolled down from the bed in fright. He didn't even bother to put on his clothes, so he crawled on the ground and ran to open the door, asking in panic: "He's dead, how did he die?"
The housekeeper outside the door wiped his sweat and said in a trembling voice: "It was the officer from the Imperial Guards Department who personally came to the door to communicate. He said that the father and son were murdered, and someone has reported it to the Ministry of Punishment. I think the emperor will know about it soon!"
"Oops! Oops!" Wang Jing took a few steps back in despair, crying secretly: Now he has caused a huge disaster! If the emperor knew that he had neglected his duty in order to snatch away Ruan Lang's wife, the emperor would be in trouble.
A relative died suddenly, I'm afraid his life will be in danger!
"Father! Father!" Wang Jing suddenly thought of Wang Su and ran out without even putting on her clothes.
The dark night was gradually receding, and there was already a little light on the horizon. Wang Jing was half-naked, running under the dawn night sky. Perhaps he himself did not expect that there would be such an embarrassing day!
He even forgot to ride a horse or sedan chair, and just trotted all the way to Wang Su's mansion. While knocking on the door hurriedly, he shouted breathlessly: "Father, open the door! Open the door, father!"
After a long time, the lights in the mansion in the courtyard were turned on one by one. A rush of footsteps gradually approached, and the door was slowly pushed open.
The old housekeeper walked out of the door with his coat on and sleepy eyes. When he saw Wang Jing who was sweating profusely, he couldn't help but wonder: "Master, why is it so urgent?"
Wang Jing pushed the housekeeper away, strode into the door, and shouted anxiously: "Where is father? Something bad is going to happen!"
The housekeeper trotted behind him and advised, "Master, please slow down. What happened?"
While they were talking, Wang Su and Mrs. Wang, wearing coats and carrying a lantern, walked out of the door in a daze. Seeing Wang Jing's frightened expression, Wang Su secretly thought it was wrong.
But before he could ask in detail, Wang Jing walked over and knelt on the ground with a bang. Before he could say anything, he started crying anxiously.
Wang Su looked solemn and asked, "Treason, what trouble did you get into again?"
Mrs. Wang loved her son very much. She rolled her eyes at Wang Su, tremblingly helped Wang Jing up, and said gently: "Jing'er, please speak slowly when you have something to say. What's the matter?"
They all have your father!"
Wang Jing trembled when she heard her father's rebuke, and immediately hid beside Mrs. Wang, saying in a voiceless voice: "Father, I... I seem to have made a mistake..."
Wang Su snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Oh, if you don't make a mistake one day, what else in this world can make such a brave person like you panic like this?"
Mrs. Wang immediately stopped him: "Jing'er is still young, what does he know? Why are you so fussy about making small mistakes?"
Wang Su pointed at Wang Jing and sneered: "Look at him, does he look like he made a small mistake?"
Mrs. Wang stroked Wang Jing's head and asked patiently: "Jing'er, what happened? Please tell your father quickly to save us from worrying."
Wang Jing drooped his head, hesitated for a long time, and then muttered: "Father...Father, just now the people from the Royal Guards came to report that Pingyang Hou and his son...are dead..."
"What?" Wang Su raised his eyebrows and glared at him: "You've only been here a few days, why are you dead?"
Wang Jing was so frightened that he shrank and said, "I...I don't know how I died..."
"What do you mean you don't know? You are in charge of the Imperial Guards and the Imperial Prison, how can you not know?" Wang Su grabbed his collar and asked angrily.
Wang Jing's eyes turned red and she quickly looked at her mother pitifully.
Mrs. Wang stretched out her arms, stepped in front of Wang Jing, and scolded Wang Su: "Look, you scared the child! What can't you say? Isn't it normal for someone to die in prison?"
Although Wang Su is majestic and powerful outside, he is very afraid of Mrs. Wang at home. Although Wang Jing hangs around flowers every day, he can't move when he sees a woman. Wang Su has only married this one in his life.
Madam, she has never even had a concubine. Therefore, even though he has tens of thousands of fortunes in his life, he has only one son, so he naturally dotes on him. Mrs. Wang is even more indulgent towards Wang Jing, and is reluctant to say a harsh word.
.
Wang Su saw that his wife was a little angry, so he sighed and softened his attitude: "Sir, tell me, what happened at night?"
Wang Jing lowered his head, raised his eyelids and glanced at Wang Su secretly, but was so frightened by his piercing gaze that he lowered his eyes again.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke: "Yesterday, I was on duty. Thinking that it was the Dragon Boat Festival, I took everyone to drink together to celebrate. Ruan Lang was not on duty but suddenly returned to the Imperial Guards Department and said that he had prepared wine and food at home.
He wanted to buy me a drink. I couldn't resist, so I went with him..."
Wang Su glanced at him and saw the way his eyes were moving around. He knew that he was racking his brains to make up a story, but he was not in a hurry to tell it apart. He only said coldly: "What next?"
Wang Jing swallowed his saliva and continued to talk nonsense: "I... I was a little drunk, and Ruan Lang ordered his wife... to come out and drink with me, and... she also deliberately seduced me. Later... later... Ruan
Lang suddenly said... He wanted to give his wife to me, and I hope I can let you give him a high official position..." At the end of the sentence, Wang Jing couldn't go on and her voice became smaller and smaller...
Wang Su snorted coldly and asked: "Jing'er, how dare you lie after you have caused such a big disaster? I can barely believe it if you say that it is possible for others to give his wife to you. That Ruan Lang is stupid and has always been
If you don't understand the ways of officialdom, he will give his wife to you? I didn't know that you have always been as bold as the sky. It is probably because you have been interested in his wife for a long time, so you took advantage of yesterday to take her home by force!"
Wang Jing's whole body was shocked. He knew that he could not deceive his shrewd father, so he did not dare to forcefully argue again.
Wang Su coldly sneered: "Jing'er, you definitely can't deal with Ruan Lang on your own. I guess you brought some thugs to commit the murder. I'll find out after a little investigation. How dare you lie?"
When Wang Jing heard this, he immediately knelt down and said tremblingly: "My father is wise, and you guessed it right. It was indeed me who fell in love with Ruan Lang's wife and snatched her home yesterday. But who
I can imagine that Pingyang Hou and his son suddenly died last night!"
Wang Su immediately became furious, pointed at Wang Jing and cursed: "What nonsense! How dare you do such an evil thing? I think you really don't want to live anymore!"
Wang Su was so angry that he raised his hand to hit her. Wang Jing shrank his neck and hid behind Mrs. Wang, crying and said: "Father, what are you doing now?"
What to do? If the emperor finds out the truth, he will definitely not spare me. If you don’t help me, I will die! Then my mother will die of grief!" After saying that, he tugged at the corner of Mrs. Wang's clothes.
When Mrs. Wang heard this, her eyes immediately turned red. She glared at Wang Su angrily and said, "At this time, you are still in the mood to scold your son. Why don't you help him find a solution?"
Wang Su asked angrily: "What should I do? Can I make the dead come back to life?"
Mrs. Wang stamped her foot and said anxiously: "The father and son made so many enemies when they were alive. Now that they are in prison, there are countless people who want to seek revenge from them. How can we blame Jing'er? Besides, it's a good thing that Jing'er is not there.
Otherwise, if those killers get jealous, wouldn’t Jing’er also suffer?”
"What do you know?" Wang Su retorted angrily with a straight face: "Can you tell me this? I need the emperor's letter to do that? If the emperor asks tomorrow why Jing'er is not in prison, this is his excuse.
The reason will only make Emperor Long Yan furious, can you spare him?"
"Then what should we do?" Mrs. Wang was so anxious that she wiped away her tears and said in a confused tone: "Jing'er is just a child. She is just a little playful on weekdays, but she has no bad intentions! You want me to see this matter?
I just blame Ruan Lang and his wife! Such a woman doesn't sound like a good girl at first sight. If she hadn't deliberately flirted in front of Jing'er, how could Jing'er have been interested? Besides, why is Ruan Lang so good?
If you want to invite Jing'er to your home for dinner, I think the couple just don't have good intentions! They are just jealous that Jing'er has a better life than them and want to harm Jing'er!" After that, he covered his face with a handkerchief and cried.
Wang Su's face sank and he scolded: "Hmph! You bullied Ruan Lang like that, why didn't he take the opportunity to betray you?"
Wang Jing smiled and said: "Father, although he is a martial arts scholar, without me, how could he be where he is today with no background? Besides, my father has great power, if you give him the courage, he will
You will never dare to offend me!"
When Wang Jing saw him acting like such an unsatisfactory playboy, he was so angry that he couldn't help but growl: "What are you proud of? If your father hadn't been so powerful, you wouldn't have made mistakes every day. Let me clean it up for you all the time."
Butt! However, Ruan Lang is capable of both literary and military skills and is quite talented, so you’d better be careful!”
Wang Jing shivered with fright, quickly bowed his hands and said, "My son knows..."
Although Wang Su was angry, he knew that it was not the time for accountability yet and he had to find a way to get Wang Jing out as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, he shouted to the old housekeeper: "Come here, prepare a car and go to the Imperial Guards Department immediately!"
