Chapter 246: Extremely Intelligent (Update 1)
After blurting out these words, Cui Qingci realized that something was wrong, and she hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I don't want to involve you."
"Now I have nothing to do with the Pei family, so sister-in-law doesn't have to do anything for me."
Her elder brother, who is such a lonely man, finally has someone who cares about him. She should also protect her sister-in-law as well as her elder brother does, instead of letting her take risks.
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said, "It's okay, I don't have to show up."
"The method is very simple. That is to write a storybook, find a troupe to perform it, and have the storyteller tell it. It would be best if it became a household name in Nanzhou. Then everyone would know that a woman who pretends to be weak can also be cruel and ruthless. Everyone would be reminded by the story in the play, and would be more cautious when such a woman speaks next time."
Although Jiang Zhiluo was smiling, when she thought about the old lady of the Pei family who wanted to kill Cui Qingci in her dream and the poison in Cui Qingci's body, a frosty murderous intent surged in her eyes.
Just like in modern times, because of the development of the Internet, TV dramas, movies and videos spread a lot of information, both men and women know what white lotus and green tea are.
Don't assume a woman is kind and pitiful just because she is weak and sickly.
She wanted to write a heart-wrenching play. Although she didn't mention who the culprit was, the story could reveal that the old lady of the Pei family exposed that cousin.
She wanted to use this method to get some interest back for Cui Qingci.
Since she thought so, Jiang Zhiluo decided to find time to write the storybook tonight.
Cui Qingci was shocked when she heard Jiang Zhiluo's words.
"Sister-in-law, can you...can you write a storybook?"
In Cui Qingci's opinion, those are things that can only be written by learned people. Of course, even if one is learned, that story book is not something that ordinary people can write.
What's more, many scholars don't bother to study vernacular novels.
There are only a few stories in the opera troupe's teahouse that are attractive, and some of them are too bland and no one likes to listen to them.
Jiang Zhiluo raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is this difficult?"
She is really not Versailles. In modern times, she once disguised herself as a screenwriter in order to complete a task.
Naturally I would write these.
Cui Qingci didn't find it difficult, but she thought her sister-in-law grew up in the countryside and could neither read nor write.
She was stupid.
And I have to say that this method is really good.
She just couldn't think of it.
She thought that if someone like her sister-in-law lived in an environment like the Pei family, she would also live a good life.
She is the truly intelligent person.
No matter what the circumstances, she will live a good life.
"Sister-in-law, thank you!"
"We're all family, don't be polite."
Since she treats Cui Qingci as her own family, Jiang Zhiluo naturally has to protect her.
Jiang Zhiluo said, "You can tell me whenever you want to. For now, take care of your health first. As for revenge, I will take my revenge one day."
Looking at Jiang Zhiluo's confident and calm expression, Cui Qingci's mood also became lighter for some reason.
She nodded vigorously, "Yeah."
"It was because I was off guard at the beginning. Every time she came to see me, it was as if she had hit a critical point. Every time she got hurt, I wanted Pei Nanchen to see it. Pei Nanchen would think that I was deliberately making things difficult for Lu Qiuer, and even think that..."
Their first quarrel was because of Lu Qiuer.
Cui Qingci didn't want to mention Lu Qiuer at all.
Thinking of the past, Cui Qingci's eyes became red.
Cui Qingci clenched her fingers tightly.
Jiang Zhiluo reached out and held Cui Qingci's hand, saying, "Let's not talk about it for now. You should take care of your body now, so it's best not to have any major emotional fluctuations."
"We'll talk about it later. There's no rush."
"Don't think about these things, think more about happy things. When the village market comes back, I will take you there to see the hustle and bustle of the village."
"good."
Jiang Zhiluo comforted Cui Qingci and let her sleep and rest.
Jiang Zhiluo returned to her room after washing up.
Jiang Zhiluo was not in a hurry to go to bed. Instead, she took out some paper from the table and prepared to write a dramatic story.
Although Cui Qingci didn't say much, Jiang Zhiluo was able to write it based on her guesswork.
That's all the framing drama is about.
After Cui Hejin washed up and came into the house, he sat down with his hair still wet and asked, "What are you busy with?"
"Write something."
Jiang Zhiluo raised her head as she spoke, as if thinking of something, and said, "Who on earth doesn't want my second sister to live, if it's not the Pei family?"
Cui Hejin said, "The princes have all grown up and are starting to fight for power. Although the Pei family may not be as prestigious as our ancestors, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and the Pei family still has a certain influence."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhiluo understood, "So, this is also related to political struggle."
"Let me guess. It must be some prince trying to win over the Pei family. The Pei family also wants to take advantage of this situation to revive. If there is someone who can do the same, the Pei family will be able to rise to prominence and may even hold power."
"Ordinary partnerships are not strong. The strongest relationship is marriage."
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhiluo's eyes widened, "Isn't this a marriage arrangement? The prince will marry the daughter of the Pei family?"
"But Cui Qingci doesn't have any influence on it. At most, the current emperor dislikes the Pei family because of their past relationship with the Cui family, but it won't affect the princes."
Jiang Zhiluo pondered, and suddenly a light flashed in her mind: "Could it be that it's not the daughter of the Pei family, but the man of the Pei family, Pei Nanchen?"
Suddenly thinking of this, Jiang Zhiluo's face turned pale.
No wonder someone said in his dream that Cui Qingci was wanted to be killed.
If it was a princess, killing Cui Qingci would be effortless. All she would need to do is talk, and the Pei family would have to cooperate if they wanted wealth and glory.
"Even a princess can't be so overbearing."
Cui Hejin looked at Jiang Zhiluo with gentle admiration. His little wife was really smart.
A little clue can reveal the whole picture.
"Princess Cha Min has always been a domineering person, and she will do anything to achieve her goals."
"I heard that Pei Nanchen went to the capital to study at the Imperial College. He will take the imperial examination next year and will most likely be admitted to the Hanlin Academy."
He entered the Hanlin Academy and then gained experience to enter the cabinet.
The Pei family has great ambitions.
Moreover, there was no restriction on the position of the son-in-law in this era, and climbing up the royal family would be of greater help to one's official career.
Jiang Zhiluo's lips curled up in a sarcastic arc.
"In this case, Pei Nanchen is not worthy of my second sister's nostalgia. There is no need to even remember him."
"There's no need to write a script. It would be best if the princess and Pei Nanchen's cousin had a good fight."
Jiang Zhiluo didn't want to help the princess deal with Pei Nanchen's cousin Lu Qiuer.
"You also want to write a play."
Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, "Yes, Pei Nanchen has a cousin who looks so sickly, weak, and kind, but is actually cruel and ruthless. Such a person is not easy to deal with, but if we use the script method, we can let more people know that such a person is not what he appears to be."
"But now that the princess has intervened, let them fight. They're not good people anyway."
Cui Hejin was deeply touched.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Zhiluo was filled with whirlpools, and there seemed to be some restrained emotions in them, as if he wanted to swallow her up.
Jiang Zhiluo seemed to have thought of something. She looked up at Cui Hejin and couldn't help asking, "If you saw a weak and beautiful woman, would you also think she was kind and believe what she said?"
