Chapter 82
The Demon Concubine
Signature?
As crazy as ever!
Seeing the worry in Nanny Li's eyes, Jiang Zhaoying supported her arm, and Nanny Li continued.
"It says that if all the Jiang family members die, all the property will be managed by Song Chengyu. He can manage it or sell it. That beast can do whatever he wants with it."
He has a really big appetite, he wants to take over the entire Jiang family, his plan is so big that I'm afraid the whole capital can hear it.
"Miss, that thing is now in Song Chengyu's hand."
Jiang Zhaoying stood up.
"Let's go back to the Song Mansion."
Nanny Li looked at her young lady, who had sharp eyes and sharp ears and a cold demeanor, and a hint of relief flashed in her eyes. She then ordered the servants, and a large group of people headed towards the Song Mansion in a mighty manner.
A question.
As she expected, Song Chengyu was not at home and Mrs. Song was also out.
Jiang Zhaoying raised her eyes slightly, it seemed that Mrs. Jiang had also gone out.
Afterwards, she immediately sent people out to all the major shops and manors to pass on the message that whenever Song Chengyu came in, he should be given whatever he wanted, the more the better.
Push open the gate.
Nanny Li looked at the simple and cold Kongliu Cottage and felt surprised and distressed.
When I was in Jiang Mansion.
She treated Jiang Zhaoying like a treasure, and all the food, drinks and other things she used were the best. She never expected that after marrying into the Song family, she would live this kind of life.
Especially when seeing Shu Yun and Shu Yu were seriously injured, Nanny Li was almost furious. She poked their heads with trembling hands and cursed.
"I taught you in vain. I told you to practice boxing and kicking with Master Dong, but you didn't want to practice. Now you are being bullied like this."
"If you can't even protect yourself, how can you protect the young lady? The young lady is living this kind of life here, and you didn't even tell me. Isn't this quilt uncomfortable? Can this cup make good tea? Is this cushion comfortable to sit on?"
Shu Yun and Shu Yu were scolded by Nanny Li so much that they huddled there like quails and dared not say a word. When they met Nanny Li's angry eyes, they giggled and then quickly shrank back.
Jiang Zhaoying smiled.
"Mammy, let's keep it simple. If we make too much, it will be troublesome to move it later."
"What does that matter?" Nanny Li raised her long eyebrows, which looked a bit heroic. "We have plenty of people to move. Didn't Madam say in her notes that we should live every day and every moment well?"
"Come and sit down and rest."
Jiang Zhaoying helped Nanny Li sit down and brought her some hot tea.
"I'll do whatever you say."
"Mammy, we were wrong."
Shu Yun and Shu Yu hurriedly admitted their mistakes. Nanny Li looked at the three of them, sighed, and sat down beside them.
"I knew that relying on you two wouldn't work. The young lady can't do it without an old slave, even more so. By the way, do we really want to let Song Chengyu take our things?"
Jiang Zhaoying sipped the hot tea in the cup and looked out the window with a sneer.
"Well, I want to lure the snake out of its hole and see what he wants so much money for and what his ultimate goal is."
Nanny Li nodded with a serious face. This was a good idea. The hidden danger could be eliminated as soon as possible.
"Miss."
Just saying.
The little maid was talking outside the door.
"The message came from Zhuangzi, saying that the prince of Song has arrived there and wants five million taels of silver. He has a document signed by the master, which has been verified and is genuine."
"Give him 10 million taels of silver, and 20 treasures sealed in a green box."
Then he gave another order.
"Send a letter back to the Jiang residence and tell father that he should go to the palace early tomorrow morning."
When Nanny Li heard this, she knew that Jiang Zhaoying had her own plans, so she drank her tea and got up to arrange the garden.
She couldn't bear to see her young lady living such a simple life. Young ladies should be pampered no matter where they were.
soon.
The maids went in and out, constantly moving things out and placing them.
Half an hour.
The Kongliu cottage was completely renovated; even the cushions on the couch were made of the finest satin of the time, sewed by the best embroiderer.
The new maids were called Caidie and Caiyu. They were very smart and quick. After they took care of Shuyun and Shuyu, they made tea for Jiang Zhaoying.
Nanny Li arranged everything in the entire yard by herself. At night, the yard was brightly lit. Nanny Li sat by the window and watched, feeling slightly satisfied.
"Miss, there is a Miss Yang who sent things to the young master twice."
Miss Yang?
Jiang Zhaoying's mind immediately flashed with the image of Yang Pianpian's tall and pretty figure, and she smiled.
"What's your reaction, brother?"
"There wasn't any special reaction, but the young master sent back a few sets of very nice jewelry."
fine!
It's not considered impolite.
"I think Miss Yang seems to like our young master."
If she didn't really like him, how could she be so proactive?
"What do you think, Mammy?"
"I think she's the best. I heard that Princess Yun's status is more noble. Besides... I don't really want our Jiang family to have too much involvement with the people in the palace. Miss Yang is very measured and capable. She knows who she likes and tries hard to win them over. I think if Madam sees her, she will like her too, but..."
Nanny Li raised her eyebrows.
"Speaking from a selfish point of view, I hope that the eldest young master will marry more girls, expand the Jiang family, and make the Jiang family prosperous."
Jiang Zhaoying also let out a long sigh after listening to this. Her brother has now regained his clarity of mind and is no longer the unlucky person he used to be. It is indeed something that needs to be considered about the future of the Jiang family.
"When I have time, I'll ask Miss Yang out to play and explore again."
"Okay."
As they were chatting, a cool breeze blew outside. Nanny Li hurriedly packed up her things and waited for Jiang Zhaoying to rest.
Maybe it’s because Nanny Li is here.
This night.
Jiang Zhaoying slept very well and didn't wake up until dawn.
Jiang Jianzheng was waiting outside the mansion early, and Jiang Zhaoying washed, packed her things and hurried out of the mansion.
They were not in a hurry to enter the palace, but first went to Guanhe Tower to have a good breakfast. After listening to the servants report how many things Song Chengyu had moved away from the Jiang family in one night, and after getting enough evidence and bringing two boxes of gifts for Zhou Ruogu, they slowly entered the palace.
Because of her position as Zhaoyi and her new favorite, the emperor awarded Zhou Ruogu a palace named Yuehui Palace.
Zhou Ruogu, who has regained her female body, is now dressed as a palace concubine. Looking at the attire of Yuehui Palace and the palace maids coming in and out, Jiang Zhaoying's brows sank slightly.
This is definitely not the day Ruogu likes.
Her favorite things are traveling and being a doctor who cures diseases and saves lives.
Ruogu was originally sitting blankly in front of the window, looking at the small patch of sky outside, feeling empty inside. When he heard that Jiang Zhaoying was coming, he ran towards the palace gate without even putting on his shoes.
Look up.
Seeing that Jiang Jianzheng had also arrived, she hurriedly asked the palace maid to bring the shoes over.
"My lady."
Jiang Jianzheng and Jiang Zhaoying stepped forward to salute, and Zhou Ruogu quickly waved his hands and helped them up.
"Uncle, Zhaoying, please stop laughing at me. You all know why I entered the palace."
Jiang Jianzheng looked at her lonely and desolate appearance and sighed deeply in his heart.
then.
He told Zhou Ruogu that since the Zhou family was worthless, she should be adopted by the Jiang family. At least the Jiang family could let her eat well and sleep well.
Zhou Ruogu's eyes turned red when he heard this, but he still refused.
She was filled with hatred. The Zhou family caused her mother to die at a young age and left her alone and helpless. Zhou Ruogu would certainly not let her go so easily.
"Ruogu, why do you have to embarrass yourself like this?"
Jiang Zhaoying held Zhou Ruogu's hand tightly with heartache. In fact, she had prepared everything for Ruogu. As long as she wanted, she could live the life she wanted at any time.
As for hatred.
She can report for Ruogu!
"It's not difficult. I have good food, a good place to live, people to serve me, and the emperor to coax me. What better life could there be than this?"
"But I feel bad for you being like this."
Jiang Zhaoying held Zhou Ruogu's hand tightly, and Zhou Ruogu smiled and shook his head.
"I can't rest in peace unless I see them die."
The image of her mother dying with hatred has always been deep in her heart. Although she was very young at that time, after so many years, she can still see that scene when she closes her eyes.
The mother was so desperate, so painful, so hateful. She was so reluctant to let herself go, so worried, and so scared.
But she had no choice, she couldn't live anymore!
Leaving with so many regrets.
Every late night.
She missed her mother, but she had no place to worship her, so she could only kneel down and pray to heaven and earth to allow her mother to reincarnate into a good family and live a good life in the next life.
because.
Imperial Physician Zhou and his second wife ground her mother's bones into dust and scattered her ashes. She couldn't even find her mother's ashes, let alone her grave.
This is what Zhou Ruogu hates the most!
She didn't tell anyone about this, including Jiang Zhaoying.
So she must avenge this.
"good."
Jiang Zhaoying smiled bitterly.
"If you need help, be sure to tell me and I will help you."
"good."
Zhou Ruogu also smiled and nodded.
The two people looked at each other deeply, with pain and sadness in their eyes.
"Zhou Zhaoyi, Imperial Physician Zhou is here to check your pulse."
It came quite quickly.
Zhou Ruogu's eyes were tinged with sarcasm, and he turned around and said coldly.
"No need for him, I want to use another imperial physician."
The palace maids hurried out, but hurried footsteps were heard in the yard, and then Doctor Zhou rushed in carrying a box.
Jiang Jianzheng and Jiang Zhaoying also hid behind the screen at the right time.
Looking at his daughter sitting in the main seat in luxurious attire, Doctor Zhou suddenly realized that she looked almost exactly like her mother.
Her mother was probably about the same age when she married me.
"It's different when you become a queen. You don't even need your father or your mother's family anymore."
Doctor Zhou placed the medicine box heavily on the table, then sat on the chair and glared at Zhou Ruogu angrily. Zhou Ruogu's face darkened.
"You may have gotten old and your memory is not good. I have no relationship with the Zhou family anymore."
Imperial Physician Zhou knew that the document had taken effect and Zhou Ruogu was no longer his daughter, but... if he had known that the girl in front of him was his daughter and could become an imperial consort, he would not have done things so ruthlessly.
"You don't have to be so decisive. Without the support of your mother's family, you still won't be able to accomplish anything. Besides, I'm the imperial physician. In this palace, I can keep you healthy. If you want someone to rely on, you have to make some plans. Your brothers and sisters are not young anymore, so it's time to help them."
Speaking of this.
Zhou Ruogu's eyes began to turn red, she gripped the chair tightly, and spoke in a mocking tone.
"Doctor Zhou, don't you understand what I'm saying? Jiang Jianzheng said that except for me, no one else can have children with you. Do you understand what this means?"
Doctor Zhou's face suddenly became terribly gloomy, but then he returned to normal and straightened his chest.
"But at least she still married me, and those children are registered under my name, and not given to anyone else, right?"
…
Not to mention Zhou Ruogu, even Jiang Jianzheng and Jiang Zhaoying who were behind the screen felt so angry after hearing what he said that they wanted to rush out and slap him twice.
If you don't treat your own children as human beings, but treat other people's children as treasures, are you still a human being?
Zhou Ruogu didn't say anything for a long time, but the hatred in her heart filled her eyes with tears.
This is her biological father.
If she had a choice, she would rather be someone else's child.
She felt ashamed to be carrying this man's blood.
so.
She felt dirty.
so.
When she was serving the emperor, she didn't care. Blood was dirty anyway, so why pretend to be innocent?
"Go and try to find a way to send your sister to the Crown Prince."
Zhou Ruogu sneered.
"If I had that ability, I would send myself to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Doctor Zhou glared at Zhou Ruogu and raised his hand to slap him, but Zhou Ruogu raised his face.
“Try it!”
She is now a concubine of the second rank. If the imperial physician dares to hit the emperor's woman, the crime is not small.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Doctor Zhou's face. He flicked his sleeves and angrily withdrew his hand, but leaned over and whispered viciously in Zhou Ruogu's ear.
"Anyway, you have to help them. This is what you should do, Zhou Ruogu. I have...your mother's ashes in my hands."
Carrying the medicine box, Doctor Zhou turned around and rushed out.
Jiang Jianzheng and Jiang Zhaoying walked out slowly with cold faces.
Zhou Ruogu was so angry that he was shaking all over and pointed at Doctor Zhou's back.
"Uncle, look, there really are such crazy fools in the world."
The taunts became more and more frequent, but the redness in her eyes became more and more intense. Jiang Zhaoying held her hand and patted her gently.
Zhou Ruogu turned his head and nestled into her arms, his body trembling as he could no longer hold back his tears.
"Who made my beloved concubine cry?"
The emperor's voice came from outside. Zhou Ruogu hurriedly wiped his tears, and a group of people stepped forward to salute.
The emperor was not surprised to see Jiang Jianzheng and Jiang Zhaoying there. The table was filled with gifts. He must have been Jiang Zhaoying who came to see Zhou Ruogu.
The palace maidservant beside Zhou Ruogu was smart. She stepped forward and told the emperor what had just happened.
The emperor sneered when he heard this.
"Doctor Zhou wants to force his daughter to be with the prince?"
There are so many people who want to get people into the Eastern Palace, so who does he think he is?
"emperor."
Zhou Ruogu walked up to the emperor and gently pinched his sleeve.
"Since they want to be associated with the emperor so much, then bring them all into the palace. The emperor is the most noble, wise and powerful man in the world. They will definitely like him."
"Do you really think so?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows, and a hint of cruelty flashed in Zhou Ruogu's eyes, which he did not hide in front of the emperor at all.
"As long as the emperor doesn't blame me when the time comes."
"Ha ha."
The emperor laughed.
He liked the fact that Zhou Ruogu didn't hide anything and everything was under his nose.
"what ever."
Zhou Ruogu felt a chill in his heart as he listened and turned around to give orders.
"Go ahead and ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare immediately, and tell Doctor Zhou to send the two young ladies to the palace tomorrow."
The emperor then turned to ask Jiang Jianzheng.
"Why did you follow me into the palace?"
Jiang Jianzheng knelt down in front of the emperor with a plop, tears streaming down his face.
"Your Majesty, please help me. Song Chengyu saw that I was going to be beheaded, so he took a document and forced me to sign it. In just one night, Song Chengyu transferred most of my property. I will soon be homeless and penniless."
…
"There is not a single good person in the Song family. Madam Song committed adultery with the head of the Song clan, and Song Chengyu committed murder for money. He did not make any progress himself, but only wanted to get other people's property. Your Majesty, if you want to say that this is all your fault, if you had not forbidden them to divorce, Zhaoying would not be so passive and miserable."
Speaking of.
Zhou Ruogu even glared at the emperor.
The emperor was stunned.
Then he laughed, showing a hint of helplessness.
"This matter...this matter...but my beloved concubine, my words are as good as gold. You can't let me break my promise and issue them a divorce decree. If that happens, how will the court officials look at me?"
Zhou Ruogu looked unhappy and drank the tea in one gulp.
"It is unnecessary to give it to me openly, as it will affect the majesty of the emperor, but the emperor can secretly give Zhaoying an imperial decree, so that she can divorce at any time as long as she is willing."
Zhou Ruogu also understood Jiang Zhaoying. It would be impossible for her to divorce immediately as she still wanted revenge.
so.
The best way is to get an imperial edict from the emperor, allowing her to divorce at any time. This way, there will be no risk of error.
"Hmm."
The emperor held Zhou Ruogu's hand.
"Then it depends on my beloved concubine."
The fire in his eyes almost burned Zhou Ruogu. Zhou Ruogu felt bitter in his heart, but he raised his eyes to look at the emperor.
"good."
As long as she can help Zhaoying, she is willing to do anything.
"Your Majesty, please help Jiang Jianzheng investigate this matter quickly. Otherwise, no matter how much wealth the Jiang family has, it will be squandered by him."
"Where is Cui Hexun?"
Cui Hexun appeared immediately, and after receiving the order, he rode out of the palace at full speed.
The Dragon Guards were always quick and ruthless in their actions, and it didn't take long for the whole matter to be figured out.
Song Chengyu was active almost the entire night, taking things from the Jiang family everywhere. In addition to the things that went into the Song Mansion, five million taels of silver and twenty boxes of treasures were also missing.
This was beyond Cui Hexun's expectations.
Sensing that something was unusual, he went out to investigate in person, but was surprised to find that Song Chengyu was actually a resourceful man and the money had already left the capital.
and.
They couldn't find out where the money went.
The money seemed to have sunk into the sea and disappeared without a trace.
By the time Jiang Zhaoying and Zhou Ruogu were having their meal, Song Chengyu had already been thrown into jail.
During the visit.
Many people said that they saw with their own eyes that Song Chengyu did take something and put a handprint on Jiang Jianzheng. When he came down, Song Chengyu had a happy look on his face.
Zhou Ruogu looked at Jiang Zhaoying, who was sitting in front of the window, like a solitary orchid in a valley.
"Will he die?"
They both have the same mentality, that the enemy doesn't have to die quickly, torturing him slowly is also a good option.
"Won't."
Jiang Zhaoying shook her head.
"His blood can help the emperor relieve his headache. The emperor will not let him die. Ruogu, you must be careful. The emperor's mind is not so good."
Zhou Ruogu didn't care at all and spoke coldly while picking up food for Jiang Zhaoying.
"I won't bully him at all. I can do whatever I want. At worst, he can kill me."
After saying.
She leaned over and looked at Jiang Zhaomeng, smiling coldly and femininely.
"Zhaoying... I want to be a demon concubine, a demon concubine who brings disaster to the country and the people!"
