Chapter 1 She is the vicious female supporting role!
This is the fifth day of Pei Jingxu's rebirth.
Inside the meditation room of Randeng Temple.
"How's the inquiry going?"
Pei Jingxu leaned against the chaise longue couch, her black hair like a waterfall, her icy skin half covered by her thin shirt.
She didn't raise her eyes, and her voice was light and soft.
The heat wave makes people dizzy and the cicadas' chirping is piercing and deafening.
The maid held a round fan and passed it over the ice basin, bringing a hint of cool breeze, but it could not dispel the dryness in her heart.
Hongyao stepped forward and lowered her voice, "Miss, I heard that the young master of the Rong family went up the mountain to worship Buddha today."
Pei Jingxu slowly opened his eyes, and a cold light flashed across the depths of his watery eyes.
"Change clothes."
"yes."
Her skin was as white as ice and as delicate as jade, and the white gauze dress made her look even more frail.
She picked up fine pearl powder with her fingertips and spread it thinly on her lips and rosy cheeks. Her dazzling face was suddenly covered with a sickly and fragile paleness.
She took the round fan and fanned her watery eyes a few times.
The wind was chilly, causing the corners of the eyes to quickly turn red, the watery eyes were shimmering, and tears were about to fall.
alright.
Pei Jingxu curled his lips in a cold smile as he looked at the blurry bronze mirror.
"Stay here." She ordered Hongyao and pushed the door open without looking back.
Yes, Pei Jingxu was reborn.
In her previous life, Pei Jingxu held the divorce letter given to her by the Rong family, served her parents-in-law, received dowry subsidies, and insisted on being a widow for three years for Rong Xuanzhou who died in battle. In the end, she waited for him to return to Beijing in glory with his "comrade-in-arms widow" Bai Shutong and their two children.
At the celebration banquet, the imperial edict that Rong Xuanzhou had obtained with his outstanding military achievements fell on Bai Shutong!
She, the divorced wife, became a laughing stock in the capital.
Although Bai Shutong was beautiful, she was not as beautiful as her. However, in just a few months, she won the hearts of all the powerful young men and young talents in the capital. Everyone said that she was kind-hearted and as tough as grass.
When Lian Rong Xuanzhou looked at her, the gentleness and restraint in his eyes became needles, piercing Pei Jingxu's heart.
In the end, this annoying and vicious woman was used by Bai Shutong's fanatical "servant" as a token of allegiance to please his lover, and was pressed to death in the cold lotus pond.
When he was on the verge of death, Pei Jingxu realized that they were all living in a storybook called "The Crowned Princess in Beijing".
Bai Shutong is the heroine who is blessed with good fortune. She will step on countless cannon fodder, walk on the road to success, and have countless handsome men.
And she, Pei Jingxu, is the stupidest and most vicious stone on the first step!
——She is the most unsympathetic cannon fodder female supporting role!
When he opened his eyes again, Pei Jingxu found himself back in two years ago.
Only one year had passed since the news of Rong Xuanzhou's death in battle, and at this time, Bai Shutong was still far from arriving in Beijing.
——Pei Jingxu doesn’t want to die.
So, she has to make plans for her future.
--
The Rong family had two sons. The eldest son studied literature, and the second son studied martial arts.
If it is said that Rong Xuanzhou, the second son of the Rong family, is a master of martial arts, guards the border, and has made many achievements, he is a rare talent as a general.
Then the eldest son of the Rong family would be the right-hand man of the current emperor, with a noble status that no one could match.
But this eldest son was not the biological son of the Rong couple.
In the early years, the Rong couple had been unable to have a child. Coincidentally, the Rong family suffered a disaster. After the cousin's family passed away, the Rong family followed the master's advice and adopted the boy from the cousin's family. Within half a year, Rong became pregnant and gave birth to Rong Xuanzhou.
The eldest son of the Rong family studied at the Randeng Temple in his early years and was the only lay disciple under the eminent monk Master Miaofan.
Later he became the third place in the imperial examination and served as the Prince's Tutor. He was upright and incorruptible, and had a strong character.
In the court, not to mention the civil and military officials, even the emperor himself had to respect him.
Pei Jingxu remembered that at the end of his previous life, Bai Shutong was admired by all the men in the capital, but he was the only one who remained unmoved.
Perhaps the author really favors the character of the eldest son of the Rong family, so in the finale, he simply returns to the Randeng Temple and hides himself from the world, and does not become Bai Shutong's lover.
If there is anyone in the capital who can make Bai Shutong and her followers fear him—
Then all of Pei Jingxu's hopes would be placed on him.
——She wants to rely on his power to change her inevitable death!
The eldest son of the Rong family has many admirers, and the one who pursues him most fiercely is the daughter of the prime minister - Chen Congyue.
According to the description in the storybook, when Shen Congyue came to Randeng Temple to pray for blessings, he happened to meet the eldest son of the Rong family who was going up the mountain to worship Buddha.
Shen Congyue fell in love with her at first sight, and even asked the prime minister of the time to come and propose marriage to her many times.
In order to marry into the Rong family, such a rich and noble young lady was willing to humble herself and act like a concubine, which made her parents feel particularly comfortable.
If he was just pursuing "true love", Pei Jingxu would certainly not have a deep memory of her.
But in his previous life, Pei Jingxu clearly remembered how Chen Congyue became Bai Shutong's "handkerchief friend" in order to please her, and how he tricked her to the lotus pond!
I also remember the look on Shen Congyue's face as she clapped and laughed, and fawned over Bai Shutong when those people pushed her into the water!
Now, she has been reborn and needs someone to act with her.
——Chen Congyue is the best choice.
--
Inside the pavilion, Chen Congyue glanced at the scenery of the Buddhist temple with impatience in his eyes.
The dead branches behind me rustled softly.
She turned her head and saw the person coming, and her eyes were immediately filled with undisguised malice and ridicule.
"Oh!" Chen Congyue twirled her handkerchief, covered her nose and chuckled, her voice sharp, "Isn't this the Second Lady Pei from the Rong family... who killed her husband? What's going on? You can't contain your dejection enough, so you run off to the pure land of Buddhism to fumigate the Buddha?"
Pei Jingxu was dressed in white mourning clothes, with her hair tied up with a white belt. She stood in the sunlight, her face pale and the corners of her eyes slightly red, which crushed her delicate beauty into a shattered one.
A flash of jealousy flashed across Shen Congyue's eyes.
This woman is clearly a fool who knows nothing about music, chess, calligraphy or painting, but because of her appearance, she is called "the most beautiful woman in the capital".
But every time she thought about how she killed Rong Xuanzhou and became a widow, the bitterness in Shen Congyue's heart would be replaced by pride.
——She just loves to see Pei Jingxu in such agony for Rong Xuanzhou!
But this time, she failed to get her wish.
Hearing Shen Congyue's sarcasm, Pei Jingxu just raised his eyebrows slightly, with a nonchalant smile in his eyes.
Seeing her smiling but not saying anything, Chen Congyue frowned, his face gloomy and cold: "What are you laughing at? A widow whose husband has died comes to the quiet Buddhist temple. Aren't you afraid of polluting the gods and Buddhas here?"
Pei Jingxu chuckled lightly, his expression lazy: "Miss Shen, you can come to this Buddhist temple, why can't I?"
"How dare you compare yourself to me, you bitch!?"
Chen Congyue shouted, "Pei Jingxu, your Pei family has been wiped out by disaster, and your husband was killed by you. A disaster like you, Rong Xuanzhou was blinded by marrying you. This is his fate! He deserves to die in battle!"
Before she finished speaking, Pei Jingxu's gaze suddenly passed over her shoulder and looked further away.
A gleam of light flashed across the depths of her watery eyes.
——The stage is set, it’s time for the protagonist to come.
She took a deep breath, her face instantly pale, the tears she had been holding back in her eyes welled up, and her voice suddenly rose: "Miss Shen! What grudge do I have against you?! Why would you... so viciously humiliate my late husband!"
Shen Congyue was stunned by her sudden outburst of grief and anger, and then he felt happy!
Hit the mark! He's still that foolish idiot!
She became more and more proud, and spewed out vicious words: "Because you deserve it! Your Rong family deserves to marry you into the family!"
"Rong Xuanzhou married you, he deserves to die! A bitch like you should die of old age in a cold house and never come out to harm others in this life!"
Pei Jingxu bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall: "My husband sacrificed his life for his country, fighting in battle! I will never allow you to belittle him like this!"
"Humph! So what if we're defending our country?!" Shen Congyue sneered, her pleasure letting her speak without restraint, "Rong Xuanzhou deserves it! He deserves to marry you! He deserves to die! He deserves—Ah!"
The words that were not spoken later were stuck in Shen Congyue's throat.
A sword blade was pressed against her neck!
