Chapter 61 Shen's Arrival in Beijing
As Xie Zhao said, investigating what happened back then would turn out to be a mess that cannot be cleared up.
After all, Zhang Wanyi committed suicide, so Wei Jing could defend herself very well and pretend to be aggrieved. Then people in the capital who didn't know the truth would blame the Jiang family.
Jiang Yuzhu failed to take revenge and continued to take the blame, becoming the evil woman who bullied Wei Jing.
"Wei Jing's delusion is Master Xie. She would be happy even if she could become a concubine in the mansion."
Zhao Fendie saw clearly that Xie Zhao was the man Wei Jing would never get in her entire life.
As long as Jiang Yuzhu shows off her affection in front of Wei Jing, it is enough to make Wei Jing so angry that she wants to vomit blood.
"What's the point of being angry with her? She's thick-skinned. Do you think she'll become a frightened bird and hang herself like Miss Zhang?"
Good people are mostly weak, while evil people are often extremely strong at heart.
Princess Yutan went into battle to kill the enemy, and she had never seen those who were afraid of ghosts but killed gods.
"Second sister-in-law is right."
Jiang Yuzhu doesn't need to do anything, just restore what happened back then.
Princess Yutan didn't care about being shy and asked, "Yuzhu, what do you have in mind? Tell me now!"
"Find a troupe and put on a play."
The most popular troupe in Beijing right now is De Quanban, so let's ask the head of De Quanban to arrange a wonderful play and restore it one to one.
"Let's start from when Zhang Zhong intercepted and killed me, and unravel the mystery bit by bit."
Many hidden secrets were written in booklets, but the high-ranking officials in the capital might not have the patience to read them.
It would be more straightforward if it were presented by a theatre troupe.
Jiang Yuzhu had already thought of a name in the book, and the Jiang family was changed to the "Jiang" family, which had a homophonic meaning and made it easier for the high-ranking families in Beijing to identify with the name.
"This play is bound to be a big hit. I have to tell the owner of the Dequan class that I want at least 50% of the commission."
The opera troupe makes a fortune every day, including tips, so it's not too much for Jiang Yuzhu to ask for some money, right?
“Absolutely!”
Zhao Fendie gave a thumbs up. She thought for a moment and asked, "The boss behind Dequan class is not the class owner. What if they try to trick you?"
Jiang Yuzhu said nonchalantly, "He won't cheat me. He doesn't dare."
The real master of Dequanban is Xie Zhao. How dare Xie Zhao cheat her out of money? All the money she earns is in her hands.
Princess Yutan was speechless: "I have property and I will give you enough money to spend."
There is no need to trick Xie Zhao, as I always feel that Xie Zhao is an outsider.
Especially since all that Wei Jing did was because of Xie Zhao, Princess Yutan felt a little resentful. That's just how she is. Once she has decided on someone, she will do her utmost to be good to that person.
"Thank you, second sister-in-law, but your private collection will have to be left to your nephews and nieces in the future."
Jiang Yuzhu made a few jokes and the atmosphere became harmonious.
Recently, because of Xie Xuan's imperial examination, the atmosphere in the mansion has been a little tense.
Jiang Yuzhu did not go back to her parents' home, but stayed at the mansion to keep an eye on things.
As the sun set in the west, before the city gates closed, a simple large carriage entered.
In the carriage, a dignified lady pursed her lips, lifted the curtain, looked out the window and sighed, "After a few years away, I'm finally back."
"Madam, shouldn't we inform the young master?"
The old maid serving beside him had flickering eyes, and always felt that it was not appropriate to rush into Xie's house so rashly.
Shen closed her eyes and let out a long breath, "No, let's get some information first."
The Xie family is a large family in Jiangnan, and very few of their members serve as officials in the capital.
It had been several years since Xie Zhao was granted marriage, and Shen had only seen Jiang Yuzhu on the wedding day, so she did not have a deep impression of her.
In the past few years, Shen always sent people to inquire, hoping that Jiang Yuzhu would continue the Xie family's bloodline, but always failed.
Shen really couldn't say that she liked this daughter-in-law.
Originally, she had a lot of resentment.
As a daughter-in-law, Jiang Yuzhu never sent any New Year gifts to the Xie family during the holidays. She didn't even care about the basic etiquette and rules, and she really didn't take her mother-in-law Shen seriously.
Some time ago, my niece Shen Zhilan and the fifth son of the Xie family, Xie Xuan, came to Beijing.
Not long after, the two of them wrote letters to the Xie family together.
To Shen's surprise, in the letter, both Shen Zhilan and Xie Xuan were complaining.
If it was just one person, Shen wouldn't take it too seriously, but the problem was that the two of them unanimously blamed her son Xie Zhao.
"Yuan He has lived in the backyard of the government office all year round, and he doesn't even go back to the mansion. He has not consummated his marriage for three years. Nanny Shen, how can I have a good grandson?"
Shen was so angry that she felt ashamed to face her in-laws.
Nanny Shen opened her mouth, trying to make up for Xie Zhao: "Maybe it's because the young master is an official and is busy with official duties..."
"hehe."
Shen sneered, "No matter how busy he is, can he be as busy as the emperor? The emperor has more than a dozen concubines in the harem. Yuanhe finally got a wife, but he still neglects her. Isn't there something wrong with him?"
Shen sighed, she should have seen it before.
In his early years in Jiangnan, Xie Zhao devoted himself to studying and had no interest in miscellaneous books or vernacular novels.
There is only Liang An by his side, and he doesn’t even want a maid.
At that time, Shen thought that her son was devoted to his studies and was inexplicably proud of him.
"As a mother, I have asked Yuanhe what he said before. He actually said that women are an eyesore!"
The woman is an eyesore, an eyesore...
After receiving the letter, Shen felt more and more that something was wrong. She discussed with her husband and packed up her bags and rushed to the capital from Jiangnan overnight.
She specifically asked someone to conceal the news just to kill Xie Zhao by surprise.
"There is a young man in the clan who is obviously a man, but he insists on learning the Jiangnan fashion of putting on makeup and rouge. He has become a bad person and doesn't even have the masculinity that a man should have!"
Shen was deeply resentful. If her son did something wrong to Jiang Yuzhu, she would never tolerate it!
Even if he was tied up, Xie Zhao would be thrown onto Jiang Yuzhu's bed and left to be dealt with as she pleased.
"Madame Shen, do you think Yuan He is a homosexual?"
Shen struggled to squeeze out a few words.
After a long while, Aunt Shen finally found her voice: “No, it’s, isn’t it?”
Shen was extremely sad: "So is it, or is it not?"
No solution.
Therefore, Shen had already thought of a countermeasure, first to find out the news and then formulate the next plan.
This time when she came to the capital, she must see the birth of a lovely grandson, or a lovely and delicate granddaughter!
Otherwise, Shen would not even want her husband anymore, she would stay in the capital to monitor!
"Yuzhu is a girl, spoiled and thin-skinned. She must have been dissatisfied with Yuanhe for a long time because she was not polite before, and she couldn't say anything."
Shen lamented that she trusted her son too much and did not think it was her son's problem at all. She kept finding fault with Jiang Yuzhu.
After receiving the letters from Xie Xuan and Shen Zhilan, Shen woke up as if from a dream.
They are obviously one of our own but they are saying bad things about Xie Zhao. It must be that Jiang Yuzhu has a good character and Xie Zhao is holding her back. This can't go on!
The carriage was moving forward and suddenly, without warning, collided with another carriage.
Shen's head hit the small table and immediately turned red.
"Ma'am, are you okay?"
Nanny Shen and the maidservant beside her were startled and were about to get off the carriage to argue, but when they saw the pale-faced Wei Jing getting off the carriage, they apologized, "I'm sorry, it's my driver who didn't watch the road carefully. I'll compensate you for any losses!"
"Miss Wei?"
Nanny Shen was very surprised to see Wei Jing appear.
