Chapter 239 Past
"Second brother, don't you really want to sit a little longer?"
It was not easy to wait for Li Sinian, but it turned out that she came to pick up Zhou Yan home. Shaohua was a little reluctant to leave. My sister-in-law took her hand all the way to the door, but still reluctantly refused to let go.
Zhou Yan felt funny, "It's not that you won't come in the future. What are you doing with such grievances?" Since she knew Shaohua's methods to deal with Xu Xinru, Zhou Yan suddenly looked at her with new eyes and couldn't help sighing that it was really not easy to do. Even if there was no mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, there would always be other things to do.
Li Sinian stretched out his hand to help Zhou Yan walk down the steps and looked at Shao Hua with a reluctant face. "Go back quickly. After you give birth, come and teach your second sister-in-law experience." Li Sinian's words made Zhou Yan blush and immediately get a powder beating. Li Sinian regarded his wife's pink fists and legs as shyness, and made Shaohua smile happily and agreed repeatedly.
"There is no problem with this, but the second brother needs to recite more books, and the second sister-in-law is waiting for you to talk about ancient times under the window." Shaohua blinked at Zhou Yan ambiguously.
"Mrs. Hou, you should go into the house!" Zhou Yan gritted her teeth and said.
Although Li Sinian didn't quite understand what their sister-in-law was playing, he also smiled and watched them say goodbye again.
Suddenly, a figure flashed in the corners of his eyes. When he turned his head, he couldn't see anything. He frowned, "Is the marquis back?"
"No, he doesn't know when he will come back tonight. It's getting late recently. Is the second brother looking for him?" Shaohua was puzzled by Li Sinian's words.
Li Sinian shook his head and said, "It's okay. I just saw a familiar figure and thought he was looking for the marquis." Although he is not sure, the back is too similar. Shaohua came out and looked at it, but was funnyly pushed back by Li Sinian. "Okay, let's go. You'd better take care of the fetus at home. You can't run around now."
Sure enough, you can't have a criminal record. Listening to everyone make fun of her previous events, Shaohua is too lazy to refute.
It was not until their carriage was far away that Shaohua turned around and entered the door. Suddenly, she thought that she hadn't gone to say good to Mrs. Yan for a long time, and Jinhua's death made her feel panic and wanted to go to Mrs. Yan's Buddhist hall to calm down.
But when I almost walked to the door of the courtyard, I saw Mrs. Cen, who was waiting for Mrs. Yan, come over and comfort Shaohua.
"What's the matter? Why doesn't Cen's mother go to serve the old lady and stay here to guard the door?" Shaohua asked.
Mrs. Cen replied with a smile, "The old lady said she wanted to rest and not let others disturb her, so I came out to guard it."
Shaohua frowned, "Is it not feeling well? But I have to call the doctor."
Mrs. Cen hurriedly refused, "No, no, no, no, the old lady said that she just wanted to be quiet. Probably, she has been a little worried about the birth of Xiaolangjun recently."
Seeing that Mrs. Cen's eyes fell on her belly, Shao Hua had to smile and said, "In this case, I won't disturb her, just go to the Buddhist hall." She also knew how much Mrs. Yan was looking forward to this child, and she was glad that she could meet such a sensible mother-in-law.
Mrs. Cen's face was embarrassed. "Madam, Madam is resting in the Buddhist hall. This entry is bound to disturb Madame."
Shaohua's eyes looked at Mrs. Cen for a long time, and then said lightly, "Well, I'll come back another day." Shaohua turned around and seemed to hear Cen Pozi breathe a heavy sigh of relief. When she went a little further, she whispered to Chu He, "Go and see who has just entered the house."
Chu He's face was surprised, "How did you know that there was someone in Mrs. Tai's courtyard?"
Shaohua meditated and said, "The Buddhist hall is cold. Except for homework and meditation, I won't choose to rest there." Just now, Li Sinian said that he had seen the wrong figure and thought he was looking for Yan Kaizhi. Now Mrs. Yan's yard is blocking people from entering. Thinking that Li Sinian is correct, he said that the familiar figure should have come into the house, and he is not looking for Yan Kaizhi, but Mrs. Yan.
It's just that Shaohua wondered who would be to avoid people from entering the house. If she were a noblewoman, she would never come in through the side door. And according to Li Sinian's words, this person must also know Yan Kaizhi.
Is it strange from time to time that a person Yan Kaizhi knew secretly ran to see Mrs. Yan?
"Madam, Madam just came." Lin brought tea into the room and whispered to Mrs. Yan.
Mrs Yan frowned slightly, "Did she say anything?"
Lin shook his head, "No, it seems that I'm going to the Buddhist hall, but I let Mrs. Cen stop it." Seeing Mrs. Yan nodding, Lin finished the tea, bowed back to the door, bowed to the shadow, and then closed the door and quietly left.
At this time, the person standing in the shadow came up. He was not tall and slightly strong, as if he had been driving for several days.
He looked at Mrs. Yan, who closed her eyes and recited scriptures, and his voice was a little choked, "Mrsang."
As soon as the voice started, I heard Mrs. Yan shouting fiercely, "Presumptuous! Call me Mrs. Yan.
The man heard her anger as if he had been poured cold water on his head and lowered his head degradedly. He raised his hands respectfully and gave a big salute to Mrs. Yan, "My subordinate Jin Zhaocheng has seen Mrs. Yan."
For a long time, when he heard a heavy sigh, the man's heart was throbbing, but he stood there with his fist.
"The general is all good." Mrs. Yan's soft name almost moved Jin Zhaocheng to tears. Sit down, you have been running all the way day and night. Thank you for your hard work.
"Mrs. Meng will not give up. If there is anything her subordinates can do, they will die." Jin Zhaocheng did not sit down, but his tone became firmer.
Mrs Yan laughed, but her eyes were a little bitter. "The general is now the head of a city. It's really an honor to get this." Jin Zhaocheng made Mrs. Yan laugh a little flustered. He wanted to comfort him, but Mrs. Yan didn't give him this opportunity. "I really need your help when I see you this time."
"Madam said that Jin will never refuse." Jin Zhaocheng didn't even listen to what Mrs. Yan asked him for help, and immediately opened his mouth to answer. As if Mrs. Yan wanted him to dig his heart and caesarean section, he could also lift the knife immediately and never blink.
Although outsiders knew that Jin Zhaocheng was originally Yan Su's subordinate, after Yan Su's death, Jin Zhaocheng was immediately brought up to replace Yan Su's position and stabilized the hearts of the people in Lingjing. Except for the turmoil in the previous two years, Lingjing has been too safe under the control of Jin Zhaocheng in the past ten years, and even the previous emperors have praised Jin Zhaocheng for his meritorious defense of the city several times.
It's just that such a general looks so humble in front of the widow of his former boss, which really makes people admire Yan Su's prestige and deterrence.
But only Mrs. Yan didn't think so. Her eyes fell on the man in front of her, as if she could see the old days. Suddenly, there was a burst of swords and shadows, blood red stained with frost and white, and the woman's clothes ran out of the camp in a mess to face the tragic death of her husband. Mrs. Yan suddenly felt a shudder all over her body, as if she had been strangled by her throat. Her eyes became sharp and strong, her fists were clenched, and her nails were embedded in the palm of her hand.
"Madam? Are you all right?" Jin Zhaocheng waited for a long time without waiting for Mrs. Yan's next sentence, and couldn't help asking worriedly.
Mrs Yan was suddenly pulled back to her senses, and her eyes became strict again. She stared at Jin Zhaocheng with vigilance and said quietly, "Now that Erlang has ascended the throne, the four seas are stable, and Kaizhi has also married and children. If Lanzhi can be by her side, I have no regrets."
"As long as my wife says a word, I will die and bring Lanzhi back!" Jin Zhaocheng was also angry when he knew about Lanzhi, but unfortunately, he could only stay still.
"Don't mention death. I don't want your life now." Mrs. Yan disdained Jin Zhaocheng's gambling with his life. "Lanzhi is married for her brother. You are not qualified to replace her."
Jin Zhaocheng was a little embarrassed by what she said, so he had to choose to be silent and only heard Mrs. Yan sneer: "She could force her husband to die in those years, and now she can naturally take Kaizhi's life as a bet. If it weren't for Lanzhi, maybe our Yan family would have died." Jin Zhaocheng squeezed his lips and said nothing. He was also responsible for what happened in those years, so he quietly listened to Mrs. Yan.
"I don't want you to rebel, nor do I want you to kill and set fire. Erlang is Erlang, and she is her, which I know very well. Mrs. Yan said, and her expression became awe-inspiring and indifferent. "She went around such a big circle and dragged so many people into the water in order to pull Queen Duanming down. Nowadays, the world is still the world of the Qin family, and she will not be willing to stop like this.
"She married Rouwan to the Xu family, which seemed to win over the Xu family, but in fact she also wanted to restrict the Xu family. But the Xu family stuffed their daughter into my house, oh! Presumably, he didn't forget how to kill his husband. He thought that he could pay off the debt by stuffing his daughter here. He was really naive. Mrs. Yan gritted her teeth and showed fierce eyes on her face, which was completely different from her usual kind-looking appearance. I want you to make a gap between the Xu family and the He family. I want them to bite the dog and make her completely desperate!"
Jin Zhaocheng looked at Mrs. Yan, who had distorted her face because of hatred, and asked late, "Is Madam going to tell the world about her?"
In fact, Yan Kaizhi has long known who killed Yan Su in those years. Maybe someone wants to blame the villain who was framed behind his back, or someone who is too impulsive and arbitrary, but who knows that they are just chess pieces. The real mastermind sits in Beijing, and no one can pick out the thorn.
"Tear the world? Then who can serve Erlang? Erlang's country is unstable, and Kaizhi is not much better. Mrs. Yan seemed helpless, "I can't kill her, but I can make her despair and never get what she wants. I have endured for so many years, and in the name of her gift, I have to laugh and flatter in front of her, even I feel disgusted. I'm afraid that after I die, I'm not qualified to face the ancestors of the Yan family, let alone him.
"Madam, please allow me to apologize to death after everything is done." Jin Zhaocheng felt heartbroken for Mrs. Yan's hatred.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Yan said sarcastically, "When everything is done, you won't die. What does it have to do with me?" She was shocked, "I can't escape my husband's death without you. Don't ask me for forgiveness for what happened in the past. I don't have a chance to ask him for forgiveness."
This sentence made her worried, and she frowned for a long time and couldn't let go.
"Maybe I will consider forgiving you when I die." Mrs. Yan closed her eyes and sighed deeply.
"Madam can definitely live a long life!" Looking at Mrs. Yan's desperate expression, Jin Zhaocheng was a little excited.
Mrs. Yan opened her eyes and smiled, "Why do I live so long? I'm afraid that his reputation is not long enough? You know, his innocence was not destroyed by the He family, but by me. Being framed can be washed away, but she is his eternal stain.
If Yan Su knew it, she would never want this humiliating title, but she couldn't. She couldn't refuse. She had to protect her young children in a name. Knowing that she would wake up in nightmares at night, she had to force a smile to survive. Shaohua said that she ate fast and recited Buddhism for Yan Sujide, but Shaohua was wrong. She only believed in Buddhism to wash away her sins.
Yan Su's death, the He family has a share, the Xu family has a share, Jin Zhaocheng has a share, and she also has a share, but the Wang family, who is thought to be the mastermind, is the most innocent.
