The county magistrate paid special attention to the fact that the Huang family was imprisoned in the cruel death row.
Old Mrs. Huang died within two days of being in prison. Her health was already at the end, and she couldn't even eat.
There was not much food for each person in the prison. Mrs. Huang grabbed Mrs. Huang's share and gave it to herself and Mr. Huang. Mr. Huang was like a wooden man, ignoring everything.
Old Mrs. Huang knew that there was no hope for Huang Laoda's family, but she couldn't speak. She stammered and stared at Huang Laoer with her cloudy eyes, hoping that he could feed her something.
Huang Lao Er looked at her with regret:
"Mother, those people in the village said that you bullied the second girl's mother whenever I went to the fields. I was so stupid at that time. She told me that I would ask you, and I believed you in just a few words. She probably hated me even more now."
When this matter was mentioned, Huang Lao Da and his wife became angry. They had saved the Duke's daughter and sent her back, and their family would have become prosperous by taking advantage of the Duke's Mansion.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Huang was obsessed with money and Mr. Huang was so bold and lustful that they brought disaster to their entire family.
Thinking of this, Huang Lao Da and his wife started fighting with Huang Lao Er.
The three of them got into a melee, and Old Lady Huang was angry and anxious, but no one cared about her at all. When the jailer noticed them and pulled them apart, he found that Old Lady Huang was already dead.
Huang Lao Da and Huang Dasao intentionally injured He and were sentenced to exile three thousand miles away.
Huang Laoer intentionally injured He and forced a woman, and was punished for both crimes and executed in the autumn.
Danruo and his group took Ying Rongniang back to the capital. The old lady of Yingguogong sat in front of Ying Rongniang's grave and cried. Seeing that Danruo was also sad, she kept comforting her with concern.
Only then did she cheer up. Although Rong Niang was gone, she still had a daughter and several grandchildren who needed her care.
When we came back this time, the children were six months old and could already crawl.
Ran takes care of several children every day. Although she is tired, she feels very happy.
When the children are old enough to walk, she will take them out to play and make those who laughed at them in the past few years jealous.
The emperor's health was getting worse and worse, and the situation in the capital suddenly became tense. Jing Ruchen stayed by the prince's side and went home less and less frequently.
Jing Ruchen also arranged more guards for the house, and the protection was as strong as an iron barrel. Danruo and Ran lived in the same yard with their children to prevent any accidents.
On the eve of the emperor's death, Prince Zhuang rebelled, but was ultimately defeated by the crown prince and was captured alive by Jing Ruchen.
The emperor still couldn't bear to kill his eldest son, Prince Zhuang, but instead ordered him to be imprisoned. After the emperor passed away, the prince ascended the throne smoothly and thoroughly liquidated Prince Zhuang's faction. Jing Shengwen was also classified as a member of Prince Zhuang's faction and was removed from his official position.
Because of his contribution in settling the scores with King Zhuang, Jing Ruchen was directly promoted to general and led 100,000 troops to guard the border.
The new emperor asked Jing Ruchen to take his mother, wife and children to the border. He had the power of 100,000 soldiers. Normally, his family would have to stay in the capital.
However, the new emperor allowed him to bring all his family members with him, which shows the new emperor's trust in him.
The ministers all advised the new emperor to think twice, but the new emperor still insisted.
After Ran knew about this, she asked to stay in Beijing. It didn't matter where she was, and even if she couldn't see her grandchildren, she would be happy as long as she could see them once every few years.
When leaving, the eight-month-old fourth girl held on to Ran's clothes tightly and burst into tears as soon as she left Ran.
Seeing her granddaughter crying, Ran also cried, but she knew that separation between mother and child was more painful, so she wanted all her grandchildren to follow Danruo and her son.
Seeing his daughter so reluctant to leave, Dan Ruo said:
"Then Xiao Si, why don't you stay and accompany your grandmother?"
The fourth girl stopped crying and smiled sweetly. Ran's heart was almost melted by the sweetness. She was indeed her favorite granddaughter.
Children are the most sensitive. She knows that her mother is fair to all her children and her father favors her, but her face will be hurt by the pricks of her father's beard. Only her grandmother loves her the most and always holds her in her arms.
As if knowing what her daughter was thinking, Danruo smiled and said, "Little clever girl."
However, he would come back to see her soon. After leaving his spiritual power in her body to protect her, he took his three sons to the border.
Time flies, and five years have passed.
During this period, Dan Ruo was able to bring his children back to the capital to visit relatives every year, and Jing Ruchen was always guarding the border. The surrounding small tribes no longer dared to invade and they sent letters asking for peace.
The emperor was overjoyed and asked Jing Ruchen to return to Beijing and stay for a while.
A welcoming dinner was specially prepared for him. At the banquet, the emperor and his ministers were in harmony, and the empress took extra care of the wife of Marquis Jing'en, her younger sister.
But some people still have their eyes on Jing Ruchen, who has already held a high position at the age of less than 30 and may have a greater future.
Although he already has a wife, she is not only as beautiful as a fairy, but also has a strong background and children.
But as a man, how can he only have one wife? It is normal to have several concubines.
Ran's family was weak in the past few years, but now they have some face because of Ran's identity as Jing Ruchen's mother.
But this was not enough, they wanted more, so they sent three daughters of the Ran family to stay for a few days on the pretext that they missed Ran.
Ran wanted to give face to her natal family, so she brought a few girls with her to play with the fourth girl Jing Yu.
The three girls asked Jing Yu indirectly when her father would come to see her.
Jing Yu felt something was wrong. She had seen these people's expressions many times in the palace with the Queen and her aunt.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, he took in many concubines in order to stabilize the previous dynasty. Jing Yu was often taken into the palace to play by the queen since she was a child. The emperor also liked her very much, so she was often won over by the concubines.
She ignored these people and ran to Ran's house, crying and looking for Ran:
"Grandmother, Yu'er doesn't want a stepmother. She will only create obstacles for Yu'er and mother. Yu'er doesn't want to live as cautiously as my younger brother, the Crown Prince."
Ran first held Jing Yu in her arms and wiped away the tears from her eyes. Yu'er was so well-behaved and never cried. Now she was really distressed. However, what a mess of a stepmother, she still coaxed her:
"Don't cry, Yu'er. Your grandmother will help you with everything you don't like or want. But what about this stepmother? How come I don't know about her?"
Jing Yu then told Ran what had just happened. Ran didn't expect that the three girls would have such thoughts.
She immediately sent the man back home, and then asked her sister-in-law directly. When she learned about their plan, she immediately refused.
What a joke. She's crazy and that's why she's causing trouble for her son and daughter-in-law.
The Ran family, however, thought that Ran was getting too old and confused, treating her granddaughter like a treasure. Just because the granddaughter didn't want to, she became hard-hearted and refused to help her parents' family.
Giving away a concubine and then giving birth to a child with the blood of the Ran family can ensure that the relationship between the Ran family and the Jing'en Marquis Mansion will be more long-lasting and intimate.
They just want to send their daughter as a concubine, not as a wife. Is it that difficult?
In this case, let Ran lose this granddaughter. Then she will like the girl from her mother's family.
However, the Ran family could not take action on this matter, so they spent a large sum of money to bribe the human traffickers.
A portrait of the human trafficker Jing Yu and the characteristics of his servants were given.
