Xu Jingyang died. Immediately after giving birth to her daughter, she was stabbed to death by her own husband.
In her previous life, Xu Jingyang was the true eldest daughter of the Xu househo...
Chapter 220 Song Wanyun learns of Jiang Yunzheng's death
At the same time, at the Song Mansion next door.
Just last night, Wuyou rushed back to the capital from Xiazhou after traveling for more than ten days.
Following Jiang Yunzheng's previous instructions, she handed the letter to Song Wanyun.
Wu Yu had lost a lot of weight, looked dusty, and had red eyes. "Madam, this is what the young mistress asked me to pass on to you."
The envelope was addressed: To my mother.
Song Wanyun suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
Her voice trembled: "Why are you the only one here? Where's Yun Zheng?"
Before Wu You could say a word, tears started to flow.
"Young Madam, she...she's gone."
Song Wanyun's body tilted and was stabilized by Mrs. Yang in time. She burst into tears and opened the letter with trembling hands.
The letter said that Jiang Yunzheng's old injury in Xiazhou relapsed. She had been weak since childhood, and the Thousand Machine Poison had damaged her body. After arriving in Xiazhou, her body became unwell. Fortunately, she did not feel any pain before her death. She had sent people to her hometown in Anyang to repair Shi Chaoqing's tomb. Her last wish was successfully fulfilled, and the only person she was worried about was Song Wanyun.
Yun Zheng is unfilial and can no longer fulfill her filial duties by her mother's side. She hopes her mother will live in good health for the rest of her life.
Song Wanyun held the letter and almost fainted from crying.
Nanny Qin stood at the door with a dazed look on her face, as if she had lost her soul. She stared at the piece of paper in Song Wanyun's hand and fainted.
The next day, the Song Mansion set up a mourning hall for Jiang Yunzheng, and people from the Xu Mansion and the Zhenguogong Mansion came.
They are Xu Qingsong and his wife, Xu Mianmian, the second wife of the Duke's Mansion, Zhao, Qi Yanyu and Qi Yunzhou.
The most painful thing in life is to see a loved one die.
The Song family sent away their son Chaoqing a few years ago, and now they have sent away their daughter-in-law Jiang Yunzheng.
Under the osmanthus tree in the Song Mansion, in addition to Shi Chaoqing's cenotaph, there is also Jiang Yunzheng's cenotaph next to it.
Song Wanyun wanted to go to Xiazhou to see Jiang Yunzheng again.
Wu Yu tried to stop her from trying to persuade her, "Madam, the north is bitterly cold. The last thing the young lady wants to see is you traveling so hard. If the young lady knew about this in the afterlife, she would be so worried."
The neighboring Zhenguo Mansion, Xu Mansion, and Song Mansion are all in a slump.
Qi Yanyu and Xu Mianmian were crying their eyes out, even though they had just received a letter from Jiang Yunzheng not long ago.
That afternoon, Madam Qi finally learned the truth about Jiang Yunzheng's death. Princess Yude and the old lady came to the Song Mansion with crutches, followed by Qi Yunshen. The three of them paid tribute to Jiang Yunzheng together.
Wu Lu also rushed back from the teahouse outside the city. Both she and Hong Yu had swollen eyes from crying.
Including Wu Yu, the three little girls were unwilling to leave the Song Mansion and wanted to continue taking care of Song Wanyun for Jiang Yunzheng.
At the same time, Hou Yue was sitting alone in the courtyard of Jing Mansion.
Among the maids and guards in the Song Mansion, only Hou Yue knew the truth. Xu Jingyang had lost her memory and could not remember her former identity as Jiang Yunzheng. After much thought, Hou Yue went to find Xu Jingyang.
"I have to go out of the house later. I have something to do."
Xu Jingyang noticed that something was wrong with Hou Yue: "What's wrong with you?"
Hou Yue looked at Xu Jingyang. It was so painful that only she knew the truth, but she couldn't say it. Hou Yue looked at Xu Jingyang and tears fell down.
Xu Jingyang was startled. She wiped Hou Yue's face with a handkerchief and asked, "What happened?"
Hou Yue blew her nose with Xu Jingyang's handkerchief.
"I just...feel bad."
No matter how Xu Jingyang asked, Hou Yue was unwilling to say more. Xu Jingyang frowned and said seriously: "Then you go out, let Qi An follow you."
Seeing Hou Yue's condition, Xu Jingyang was really worried.
Hou Yue shook her head: "I can do it myself."
Ever since Qi An was assigned to Xu Jingyang by Qi Yunshen, he has been staying in Jing Mansion.
Hou Yue did not dare to show up in person. She wandered at the gate of Song Mansion. Looking at the white banner hanging at the door, she began to cry again.
When will Xu Jingyang remember everything?
Because of Hou Yue's matter, Xu Jingyang did not leave the house today. When Hou Yue came back in the evening, she smiled and said to Xu Jingyang that everything had been dealt with and asked her not to worry.
Xu Jingyang sighed lightly and asked Qi An to go out of the house to buy a lot of Hou Yue's favorite food and send it to her room.
The second day soon arrived.
Qi Yunshen was on leave that day and came to Jing Mansion early in the morning.
Xu Jingyang slowly opened her eyes when the sun rose high in the sky, and stretched out in bed.
Suddenly, she quickly realized that something was wrong. She looked to the side and saw Qi Yunshen sitting beside the couch in black clothes. He was tall and had long legs, flipping through the storybook that Xu Jingyang often read.
Storybook.
Storybook???
Xu Jingyang said in a hoarse voice: "Put it down!!!"
Looking at the words on the cover of the storybook, a tough widow and a pretty husband.
Xu Jingyang's toes began to dig into the ground. Hou Yue had secretly shown her this that day, saying it was a limited edition book. If only the content inside was as innocent as the name...
Thinking of the illustrations that were every two pages, Xu Jingyang suddenly felt dizzy and hot from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
Qi Yunshen looked up at her, his expression relatively calm.
Xu Jingyang immediately got off the bed, took the script from his hand and hid it behind him.
Xu Jingyang took the initiative and accused Qi Yunshen: "How did you get in?"
Before going to bed last night, Xu Jingyang specially locked all the doors and windows.
The one to guard against is Qi Yunshen.
Qi Yunshen first poured Xu Jingyang a glass of water.
"Don't worry, drink some water."
There were still red marks on Xu Jingyang's face from being pressed, and a faint fragrance emanated from her hair.
"What are you doing here?"
Qi Yunshen: "There is a maid outside."
Xu Jingyang laughed: "...Are you still afraid of meeting people?"
Qi Yunshen stared at her and suddenly smiled.
The words behind Xu Jingyang seemed like a hot potato. She pushed Qi Yunshen out and said, "I need to change my clothes. You go out."
Qi Yunshen hummed: "No hurry, I'll wait for you outside."
After everyone left, Xu Jingyang lay on the quilt with the notebook stuffed under her pillow.
Her face was getting hotter and hotter.
Next time, she must hide the storybook!
Xu Jingyang calmed down, washed and changed her clothes calmly, opened the door, and saw Hou Yue practicing sword.
Hou Yue put away his sword and smiled: "Are you awake?"
Xu Jingyang looked at her, his eyes seemed to say everything, and yet said nothing.
Hou Yue touched her head and asked softly, "What's wrong? Did you have a fight?"
On the other side of the yard, Qi Yunshen was talking to Qi An about something.
Xu Jingyang: "Let's go eat first."
After dinner, a carriage drove out of the capital.
The purpose of this trip is to visit Yuntaishan, a famous mountain outside the capital.
As the name suggests, Yuntaishan contains the word "cloud". Looking out from the top of the mountain, you can see a sea of clouds and witness the sunrise with your own eyes. If you are lucky, you can even see the Buddha's light. Since ancient times, it has been a mountain frequently visited by scholars and poets.
Therefore, there are many teahouses and accommodations open at the foot and halfway up Yuntaishan Mountain.
Qi Yunshen has a private house halfway up the mountain. Behind the house is a large lake with many peach blossoms planted by the lake. Every spot is beautiful.
After settling in, it was almost evening. They had a simple meal and prepared to rest.
When they woke up, before daybreak, the four of them started climbing the mountain.
