Chapter 56 Why did you let King Han take over
"Shouldn't people be buried after death? What's the point of not burying them?" Jiang Jingyan was stunned. It was the first time he had seen such a magical thing.
"Good question." Jiang Yunxi praised.
Jiang Jingyan's mouth twitched slightly, "Is he not dead? But if he wasn't dead, the people around here wouldn't say her husband was dead, and Mrs. Dong wouldn't say it either, and there was a funeral."
At this moment, he was completely confused.
"Do you have any guesses?" Zhan Beiyuan looked at Jiang Yunxi, otherwise she would not come to dig up Cheng Zimo's grave for no reason.
"What do you think?" Jiang Yunxi asked him back.
Zhan Beiyuan glanced at the empty coffin. "The person may be dead, but before the burial, the body in the coffin was taken out. But no one would want a body for no reason, unless someone has a use for it. But you said Dong's husband is not dead..."
For a moment, he couldn't figure it out.
"Looking at Mrs. Dong's face, her husband will definitely not die early." Jiang Yunxi said firmly. She was confident in this.
"Ah, then why did she and the people around her say that Cheng Zimo was dead, and there was even a tombstone on the grave?" Jiang Jingyan was even more confused, and couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.
Jiang Yunxi stared at the tombstone for a while and said, "Second brother, go and find out more about this Cheng Zimo tomorrow. I'll continue to give you gifts after I find out the truth."
"Okay." Jiang Jingyan agreed. Could we forget about the gift?
"It seems I have to go to Futianfang again tomorrow." Jiang Yunxi said, touching his chin.
"I'll go with you." Zhan Beiyuan said. He always felt that this matter was quite complicated and not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Jiang Yunxi looked up at him and asked, "Are you free?"
Zhan Beiyuan said righteously, "It is also my duty to investigate this matter."
The group quickly returned to the capital.
Zhan Beiyuan first asked Qi Yan to send Jiang Jingyan to the Duke of Yingguo's mansion.
"Thank you, King Han, for your care these past two days. I'm going home today." Jiang Yunxi said as he lifted the curtain of the carriage and got out.
Zhan Beiyuan: "..."
Jiang Yunxi knocked on the carriage and said, "I will go to Futianfang tomorrow morning. If you are going there too, can you come to the Duke of Ying's Mansion to pick me up?"
Zhan Beiyuan did not lift the carriage curtain and said coldly, "Okay."
After seeing the carriage go away, Jiang Jingyan asked, "Why did you ask Prince Han to pick you up? I can take you there."
"You have things you need to do. Find out about Cheng Zimo tomorrow." After saying this, Jiang Yunxi walked towards the mansion. She was originally going back to Prince Han's Mansion.
But she just realized that the Duke of England had something to do tomorrow morning, so she decided to stay.
"Oh." Jiang Jingyan curled his lips.
As soon as the brother and sister entered the backyard, they ran into Mu.
Seeing them come back so late, Madam Mu was about to get angry, but when she thought of what she had said in front of the old lady, she could only suppress her anger, "Why did you come back so late?"
"Mother, we are..."
"We went to the night market." Jiang Yunxi interrupted Jiang Jingyan.
Jiang Jingyan: “…”
Is that a night market?
"Try to come back earlier next time. Go back and have some rest." Mu suppressed the anger in her heart and said, it was all because of Jiang Yunxi. If she hadn't brought Jing Yan with her, how could he have come back so late?
Jiang Yunxi said nothing and walked away.
Jiang Jingyan hurriedly followed.
Mu: “…”
What's her attitude?
She spoke to her in a nice tone, but she had no manners at all!
Forget it, after Chenyufeng gets married in a grand manner, she won’t have to act with her anymore.
The next day.
After waking up, Jiang Yunxi meditated for a while and then went to the dining hall in the front yard to have breakfast. Before he reached the dining hall, he heard a lot of noisy noises and angry curses.
As soon as she reached the door, she saw a lot of people.
"Yun Xi, you're back." Jiang Jing'an was a little surprised when he saw her.
"I came back too late with my second brother last night, so I didn't go to say hello to you." Jiang Yunxi smiled and glanced at the others. A young woman had a swollen face.
It was obvious that he had been beaten.
She had some impression of this woman, as she was also there on the day she returned to the Duke of England's mansion, but she didn't remember her name.
"This bastard actually hit my daughter, my poor Shixue." Yang hugged her daughter and cried bitterly, her face full of anger and helplessness.
"Dad, what's going on?" Jiang Yunxi asked. Is this what happened at the Duke of Ying's Mansion this morning?
"She is your second uncle's eldest daughter. She married the second son of the eldest wife of the Wenchang Marquis's mansion. She has been married for four years and has not borne any children. Your husband has taken in two concubines, both of whom have children."
"This Wei Hanxuan is really going too far. Not only did he ignore Shi Xue and treat her badly before, but this time he actually hit her!" Jiang Jing'an got angry when he thought about it.
This is a slap in the face of the Duke of England!
How dare a Earl's Mansion do this!
Jiang Yunxi walked over and looked at Jiang Shixue, whose face was blurred by tears. "Crying won't solve any problems. What are your plans now? Divorce? Or continue to be the second young master's wife in the Wenchang Marquis's mansion?"
After she finished speaking, everyone looked at her.
Divorce?
The wives of high-ranking officials in the capital have never divorced.
What should a woman do after divorce?
Jiang Shixue looked up at Jiang Yunxi. She knew this cousin. When they first met, she admired her from the bottom of her heart because she dared to speak and act.
And she never dared.
I dare not speak out when I am wronged.
They dare not fight back when bullied.
This time, he really couldn't stand it anymore, so he ran back to the Duke of England's mansion.
"Yunxi, this, this, Heli is not good for Shixue, right? What will happen to her in the future?" Yang started crying as she spoke. Naturally, she felt sorry for her daughter.
She had been married to the Wenchang Earl's Mansion for four years without giving birth to a child. Although she never reported the bad news, she knew that her in-laws must have treated her badly, and later she heard about it from some noble ladies.
But she couldn't go to the Wenchang Marquis's mansion to make trouble. It was naturally wrong for a woman to be married for four years without having a child.
"It's okay if we don't get a divorce. Maybe soon you'll end up with a dead body." Jiang Yunxi said it bluntly. There was already a hint of darkness between Jiang Shixue's eyebrows.
Yang stood up suddenly, her eyes wide.
Mu couldn't help herself any longer and snapped, "What nonsense are you talking about? Isn't Shixue fine? How could you curse her?"
The old lady said in a deep voice, "Shut up, all of you, and listen to Yun Xi first."
Shixue is her granddaughter, and she is most concerned about her safety.
Jiang Yunxi grabbed Jiang Shixue's right hand and pulled up her sleeve, only to see many scars on the woman's fair arm, both old and new.
It was obvious that he had been beaten many times.
This is the case on my arms, I don't know about my body yet...
Everyone gasped and their anger soared.
"The other party is a domestic violence man. He beat her not once or twice, but many times over the years. It was only this time that he almost took Shixue's life, so she ran back crying." Jiang Yunxi said lightly.
"Shixue, my poor daughter, you've been hurt so much. Is what Yunxi said true? Does he beat you often? How did he beat you this time?"
Yang's eyes were blurred with tears, and she was heartbroken.
My daughter’s right cheek was swollen, but a slap in the face won’t kill you.
"Her collar covered her neck so tightly, it must have almost strangled her to death." Jiang Yunxi said word by word.
