Chapter 325 Sent to a Nunnery
Si Lianhuan was taking a nap, and the noise coming from the door made her open her eyes suddenly.
Before she could speak, Huaying, who was guarding her, moved and blocked Jiang Rumin behind him.
Huaying was wondering who was so bold as to commit a crime on Jiang Rumin's territory. When she saw clearly the person rushing towards her, the corner of her eye couldn't help but twitch.
All her attention was drawn to the other person's bald head.
To be precise, he was mostly bald, with only a few tufts of hair left. It was the first time she had seen such a strange hairstyle, which looked even more awkward than being completely bald.
The opponent looked ferocious, holding an abacus in his hand. Huaying didn't think much and quickly grabbed the opponent's arm and twisted it backwards.
"Where did this shrew come from? How dare she cause trouble in Ruihe Hall and disturb the princess's peace!"
Jiang Yuxi felt so much pain from being twisted that she finally regained some of her sanity.
Princess?
Jiang Rumin actually led her outside the room where the princess was recuperating.
She didn't know the layout of the backyard and had no idea that the guest room she was in was actually opposite the princess's.
Jiang Rumin had just had a falling out with her and injured her mother's hand. She was so angry that she didn't even consider the consequences and started fighting on Jiang Rumin's territory.
Jiang Yuxi herself was a little surprised by such a nearly crazy behavior.
Although she hated Jiang Rumin very much, why was she so manic that she chased him with an abacus? For a moment just now, there was only one thought in her mind: to fight Jiang Rumin.
Now that I came to my senses, I realized how inappropriate my behavior was.
"Princess, this is my second sister, the second daughter of the Duke of Jin. She got a strange disease for some reason and her hair fell out like this. The Duke's wife brought her to see a doctor, and I helped her. But I had never seen such a disease before, so I didn't dare to treat it carelessly. I told them that I couldn't cure it, but they got angry and not only cursed at me, but also wanted to hit me."
Jiang Rumin came to Si Lianhua's bedside and said, "You saw how crazy she was just now. I just barged in because I was in a hurry and disturbed your rest."
"Princess, don't believe her. She is clearly confusing right and wrong!" Jiang Yuxi was held by Huaying's arm and could not break free. She could only defend herself anxiously, "She is the one who made me like this, and now she is pretending to be pitiful in front of you!"
"Just now I saw you chasing her with an abacus in your hand."
Si Lianhuan looked at Jiang Yuxi coldly, but she couldn't ignore Jiang Yuxi's funny forehead.
She wanted to laugh, but this was obviously not the time to laugh. She could only look away and maintain a stern voice, "I only believe what I see. You shrew, you got a strange disease and you blame the doctor for not being able to cure it. Do you think Ruihe Hall is a place where you can act wild? How dare you come to my door to make trouble?"
"I didn't know that the princess was recuperating here, otherwise I would not dare to disturb your peace. It's her! She is the one who led me here! It's obvious that she did it on purpose. She wants to use you, the princess, to deal with me!" Jiang Yuxi tried her best to explain.
"Do you think everyone is as malicious and evil as you?" Jiang Rumin's face darkened for the first time. "When you and the Duke's wife first came, you spoke softly to me. I saw that you were sincere in seeking medical treatment, and I wanted to do my best. I didn't implicate you with my resentment towards the Duke. You should thank me, but how did you treat me? When you heard that I couldn't treat you, your face changed immediately, as if I deliberately didn't treat you."
"What a clever way you twist the truth. I never realized you were so good at talking before."
Jiang Yuxi glared at Jiang Rumin, then realized that her mother did not come over to speak for her. She wanted to look back, but Huaying twisted her arm and she couldn't turn around.
"Miss, can you please let me go first? I won't dare to act rashly in front of the princess. My mother was just injured by Jiang Rumin, but she didn't come over at this moment. Something must have happened!"
"She will be fine, at most she will just be unconscious for a while." Jiang Rumin said, "Who asked her to attack me first? If I didn't fight back, I don't know what I would have been beaten by you. The silver needle that stabbed her was only tempered with a little bit of sleeping pills, it won't harm her."
"I think I understand what's going on."
Si Lianhuan looked at Jiang Rumin and said, "You are too easy to talk to. Although doctors are kindhearted, not all patients deserve to be saved. Since you have severed your relationship with the Duke's Mansion, why do you care about those who have treated you harshly? If I were you, I would not see them from the beginning! No matter what disease they have."
Jiang Yuxi's heart sank.
Judging from the princess's attitude, is she determined to help Jiang Rumin?
"Princess, I know she saved you, and you must trust her more in your heart, but this is not a reason for her to use you! You are of noble status, and it is only natural for her to save you when something happens in our dynasty. Now she wants to use this favor to control you, which is clearly..."
"I don't want to listen to your excuses anymore! I already know what happened."
Si Lianhua interrupted her, "You have a strange disease, how do you know it's not because you have done too many sins? Even if Doctor Jiang deliberately didn't treat you, what can it do? She has the right to choose her own patients. In my opinion, she is just too soft-hearted, which is why she gave you the opportunity to run wild."
"Huaying, has His Royal Highness Prince Ning returned home now? Send someone to tell him that two shrews have come to the Duke of Jin's mansion. They not only beat up Doctor Jiang in the clinic, but also offended me."
Jiang Yuxi was shocked and wanted to explain, but Huaying didn't intend to give her a chance and picked up the towel on the table to cover her mouth.
…
As soon as Song Yunchu got the news, he came to Ruihe Hall.
Jiang Yuxi and her daughter were causing trouble in the clinic and even offended the princess? It was a pity that she didn't get to see such a good show with her own eyes.
But it's still possible to wrap it up.
But when she arrived at Si Lianhuan's residence and saw Jiang Yuxi in the corner, the corners of her lips twitched twice, and then she forced herself to hold back her smile.
This hairstyle... is so unique.
On the way here, she listened to Si Lianhuan's guards' general account of what had happened, and she almost instantly guessed that this was Jiang Rumin's idea.
If you ask Jiang Rumin who she hates the most in this world, besides Jun Tianyi, it would be Jiang Yuxi and her daughter.
However, Jiang Rumin has never been very busy. Ever since Ruihetang received the imperial plaque, Jiang Rumin has been busy expanding her business. She now owns not only one medical clinic, but also several herbal medicine shops.
Those shops had already found suitable people to manage them, and Jiang Rumin was busy preparing for the Talent Selection Conference and didn't think about the mother and daughter at all.
Now that the court has arranged a position for her and the Sixian Hall has not yet been built, she has time to deal with these two people.
Jiang Yuxi's hair... I really can't look at it for too long, otherwise I can't talk about things seriously.
"Your Highness Prince Ning is here? My guards have already told you what happened. Please let Your Highness handle this matter."
Si Lianhuan said slowly, "I have just recovered from my injuries and need to rest. How can I tolerate their nonsense? If your country really treats me as a distinguished guest, then severely punish these two women! Otherwise, I will not be able to sleep well at night."
"Of course, this dynasty respects the princess. I wonder how the princess wants to punish them?"
"I can't think of any good way to punish him at the moment." Si Lianhuan looked at Jiang Rumin, "Doctor Jiang, why don't you give me some advice?"
Jiang Yuxi, whose mouth was blocked, opened her eyes wide, her eyes full of fear and anxiety.
If the princess of Xiling Kingdom were to hand her and her mother over to Jiang Rumin, wouldn't Jiang Rumin torture them to death?
After all, they are the ladies and daughters of the Duke of Jin's mansion. How could these people make the punishment on them sound so light?
"This Ruihe Hall was originally just an ordinary medical clinic, but with the plaque bestowed by the emperor, no one else is allowed to run wild. And now I am not only a doctor, but also a sixth-rank female tutor of Sixian Hall. The two of them first attempted to beat up an official, and then were rude to the princess. Miss Jiang also slandered me with empty words, saying that I caused her hair to fall out. These charges added together... the sentence should not be light, right?" Jiang Rumin asked Song Yunchu.
Song Yunchu nodded, "Enough for them to go to jail."
"They used to live a life of luxury. The prison is cold, dirty and messy. I can't bear to see them suffer like that. Prince Ning and the princess, can you show some leniency and allow them to be imprisoned in a different way? For example, send them to Qingxi Temple to accompany and take care of Concubine Yi."
When Jiang Rumin said this, Si Lianhuan's eyes flickered slightly.
Although Jun Tianyi escaped, he must be thinking about Concubine Yi. Jiang Yuxi was once Jun Tianyi's lover. If they were sent to a nunnery together, would it also move Jun Tianyi's heart and make him show up?
This is really hard to guess, after all, Jun Tianyi's affection is only what he thinks.
This bastard has a lot of romantic relationships and many women have helped him, but the only people he has personally admitted to liking are the Jiang sisters.
However, according to her observation, this guy has deeper feelings for Jiang Rumin, otherwise why didn't he think of taking Jiang Yuxi with him when he fled?
Well, no matter what, it might be a good idea to send Jiang Yuxi to a nunnery and give it a try.
"This mother and daughter are extremely vicious. It's rare that you are so kind-hearted. Since you have spoken, I will naturally give you face."
"Thank you, Princess." Jiang Rumin turned to ask Song Yunchu, "What does Prince Ning think?"
Song Yunchu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Then it's up to you. I think the tufts of hair on Miss Jiang's head are really out of place, so it would be better to shave them all off."
Jiang Yuxi was angry and anxious when she saw that several people had easily decided her future. However, her mouth was blocked and she couldn't make any sound. She could only stare at Jiang Rumin, wishing she could stare him through.
"Why, Miss Jiang, don't you like our lenient sentence for you?" Song Yunchu noticed her gaze and said lightly, "If you don't want to go to a nunnery and want a more severe punishment, we can also grant your wish."
Jiang Yuxi immediately lowered her head and stopped resisting in vain.
Looking at the clumps of hair hanging down, hatred surged in her heart.
How she wished she had just had a nightmare, and when she woke up, she would still be in her own boudoir with her long black hair intact.
She had been fighting with Jiang Rumin for so many years, but she still didn't win.
Her mother had been a concubine, and she heard people say that she was not as noble as Jiang Rumin. Later, her mother became the wife of a duke, and she finally became equal to Jiang Rumin in status. The noble ladies who dealt with her mother also praised her for being better than Jiang Rumin.
Her mother lived a decent life, so as her daughter, she naturally could not be inferior. So she learned the methods her mother taught her and competed with Jiang Rumin for the position of Princess Yi.
At that time, Jun Tianyi and Jiang Rumin were not in love with each other, but were just following their parents' orders. Knowing that Jun Tianyi did not like such an arrangement, she always appeared beside Jun Tianyi at the right time, followed his words, and acted as his confidant. After a few times, Jun Tianyi was indeed more satisfied with her.
Her mother was also very pleased and said that she had the ability and would definitely bring honor to the family and herself.
She tried so hard to get everything, but in the end, she got nothing.
She could have been a noble princess, but she had no idea that Jun Tianyi would suddenly go crazy and collude with the enemy to rebel. That man did not even inform her before doing this.
All her expectations were shattered, while Jiang Rumin became more and more successful.
Why!
It was just her bad luck, while Jiang Rumin was too lucky, and the people she found were all high-ranking. She hated it but was powerless to change the status quo.
But she couldn't lose heart yet, because she and her mother had fallen into a trap, and her father would definitely find a way to save them.
"Bai Zhu, order someone to take Miss Jiang and the Duke's wife to the carriage and send them to Qingxi Temple to accompany Concubine Yi to practice repentance. Remember to inform the abbot to help Miss Jiang shave her hair."
Miao was still unconscious and was carried out of the clinic by Jiang Rumin's two maids, one on each side.
The cloth on Jiang Yuxi's mouth was taken off, and Jiang Rumin even considerately returned her hat to her.
"Put it on so you won't be laughed at by your neighbors when you go outside."
Jiang Yuxi looked at her peaceful face and felt that she was extremely hypocritical. She wanted to bite her to death.
But the people behind Jiang Rumin are all masters, so she would not be able to succeed even if she wanted to attack.
She could only take the hat resentfully to cover the ugly appearance on her head, and followed Miao into the carriage.
Just as the carriage was about to start moving, a burst of hurried horse hooves sounds were heard outside the window, and then Jiang Yuxi heard the deep voice of the Duke of Jin.
"Prince Ning is going to punish the people in the Duke's Mansion without even saying hello?"
Jiang Yuxi was overjoyed. When she opened the curtain, she saw Duke Jin and a group of guards blocking the carriage.
"Father, mother and I are innocent. We have done nothing wrong. Please save us!"
Inside the clinic, Song Yunchu was playing with a fan nonchalantly and walked out with slow steps.
"Why, Duke, do you think your wife and daughter can act recklessly without being punished? Let's not talk about the fact that Second Miss Jiang arrogantly chased and beat the sixth-rank female official. Let's talk about the fact that the princess was offended. Your Majesty attaches great importance to the cooperation with Xiling Kingdom. Second Miss Jiang broke into the princess's house with a weapon, and this king can't do anything about it?"
"They came here to seek medical treatment. They would never be so foolish as to offend the princess. There must be something fishy going on! Even if they are really at fault, as the mistress and daughter of the Duke's Mansion, they should be dealt with by His Majesty, not by you, Prince Ning!"
