In this world, there are many women who skip meals in order to lose weight. But there is probably no woman who is not jealous. Mrs. Qin has such a gentle temperament, and she is still very upset about her ex-husband having several maids who were married to him. Even now, her ex-husband's family was wiped out because of her, and she still feels resentful when she mentions it. With Zhang Qiaoer's temperament that is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, I am afraid that she will feel even more uncomfortable in her heart.
I also know that the source of this matter lies with me. Huang Qiong opened her eyes and looked at the extremely beautiful concubine that Master Chu had snatched away by any means, as well as two other women, Chu San and Wu, who were wearing a gauze and bathing her. After being silent for a long time, he sighed softly and said: "I am a very bad person, isn't I? Do you think he is the kind of person who relies on power and bullies the weak?"
How dare these three women answer Huang Qiong's question? Just stay silent. The silence of these three women let Huang Qiong know the answer. However, Huang Qiong did not get angry, but said softly: "I also know that in your hearts, I am a devil who has made you lose your original high life, and now you have to sell your body to survive."
"But, have you ever thought that your Chu family is not a devil in the eyes of other families who are weaker than you, or even ruined by your Chu family? The day when I raided your Chu family, you also saw this The reaction of the people in Chang'an City. The confiscation of the Chu family can make the Xijing City of the Qi Dynasty sell firecrackers to the point of being out of stock. Can it explain what the Chu family has done in these years? "
Having said this, Huang Qiong raised her head and stood in the bathtub to serve him. The cold woman said with her chin: "They are both the wives of the Chu family, so even if they know that the people of Chang'an City have no regard for Chu The hatred is deep in our bones, but we don’t want to say it, or don’t dare to say it, or even can’t say it. Among the three of you, your identity is the most special one, and you should be the one with the most say.
"I'm afraid you are the only one of the women of the Chu family who did not agree with me. Tell me, how did you get raped by that Second Master Chu? Don't worry, no matter what you say is right or wrong, I will not I will hold you accountable for anything. But what I want is the truth. So you can say whatever you want and tell the two Madams of Chu your true thoughts about the Chu family."
In response to Huang Qiong's question, the woman remained silent for a long time before saying: "I am a woman, but I hate the Chu family to death, but what can I do? Second Master Chu took my husband's family, and my five-year-old If my child's life is threatened, what can I do? We are just ordinary people. What can we do against the Chu family who are rich and powerful and can force the government to work for their family? "
At this point, the woman sighed softly: "If it weren't for it, the lives of my ex-husband and his family would still be in the hands of the Chu family. As early as the day I entered the Chu family, I would have committed suicide by hanging from a beam. Even if the Chu family was outside, Being in the presence of wealth and honor in front of others is like hell to me. Your Highness ransacked the Chu family and avenged the destruction of their homes and the seizure of their wives for who knows how many families in Chang'an City."
"The first four brothers of the Chu family, no matter what they are like in private. But on the surface, they pretend to be just one person, at least they can't do anything to take other people's wives. I was just three months ago, by chance, by that wife, who just passed away. Second Master Chu fell in love with her after half a year. He forced her to abandon her husband and marry him instead. My husband didn’t want to take his money to marry me, so he colluded with Wannian County and arrested her."
"My husband was originally just a private school teacher. Although he studied hard for many years, because the family had no money, he could open up the upper and lower joints, but he didn't even get a top grade in the exam. How can he stand up to the powerful Chu family? In ten thousand years In the county, I was beaten and bruised all over my body. In addition, he threatened the lives of my parents-in-law and children, so I had no choice but to write a letter of divorce and give me to the Chu family."
"The day after he got the divorce letter, he rushed to my house with a group of servants and snatched me directly into the Chu Mansion. Although he was forced to go to the Chu Mansion, he had some physical accidents because I was really unwilling. He hasn't touched me forcefully in the past two months, but he can still be considered a human being. The reason why he is a human being is because he doesn't rob me directly when he likes me, like that Fifth Master Chu. "
"When I was robbed, I also left behind a thousand coins. I just didn't know that he bribed those officials, made false accusations and took my husband into the Wannian County jail, and brought the Wannian County police officers with him in an open and honest manner. , went to my house and took me out, and how much money did he spend? He also wrote a letter on the spot, forcing my parents-in-law to sign, forcing them to admit that they voluntarily sold me to him."
"I am not allowed to see my son again or my husband's family from now on. I ask my husband and his family to move out of Chang'an City within half a month and not to appear in the Chu family. If his family appears in Chang'an City again, don't be surprised. They did everything right. At that time, I really cried out that the sky was not responding, and that the earth was not working. I was full of pain, and there was not even a place to cry out for injustice."
"As for the fifth master of Chu, ask him how many evil deeds he has committed. He relies on the wealth of the Chu family to run rampant in Xijing City. When he sees other people's wives being beautiful and knowing how to avoid harm, he has trouble sleeping and eating. . Not only does he take things by force, but he also tries his best to get them. He also often follows people, follows them to their homes, and ruins them in front of their husbands and parents-in-law."
"When the victim reported to the government, no one paid any attention to him, whether it was in Chang'an or Wannian counties or the Tongpan Yamen of Chang'an Prefecture. Even if he went to the Yushitai to beat drums and voice his grievances, it was of no use. He even went so far as to arrogantly attack others. When the yamen complained, he led a group of thugs and followed him to the yamen gate. He blocked the yamen gate and beat the victim severely in front of all the officials.
"You still have to go to other people's homes, torture the victims one after another, and smash them all to pieces before stopping. That Fifth Master Chu has harmed countless women over the years, but he has not received any punishment. If the Chu family He doesn't have that much wealth to bribe all the officials in Chang'an City. How could the Fifth Master of Chu do so many evil things without being punished."
After the woman said this, the faces of the two Mrs. Chu couldn't help but blush slightly. How could they, as members of the Chu family, not understand what this woman said? Especially Mrs. Chu Wu Ye, she knew very well what her husband had done. But they were also powerless towards the Fifth Master Chu. None of them knew why Uncle Chu pampered this young brother so much.
He knew clearly that what he did would bring great disaster to the Chu family sooner or later, but he never put any restraints on him. To say that the difference in age made him so protective of his younger brother, who was twenty years younger than him, was not too similar. It's just that they have asked Uncle Chu more than once, but he has always been vague about this matter and refused to answer directly. However, he still did not change it afterwards.
This time, the fifth master of Chu finally brought trouble to the Chu family, causing the Chu family to be raided, and even causing trouble for him to become an Israeli servant. The two women couldn't help but shake their heads and smile bitterly again. Especially knowing that her husband, who is somewhat cowardly by nature, is the most honest of the five Chu brothers. Mrs. Chu San, who had never been able to control matters at home, felt even more aggrieved.
Seeing that the three women were silent, Huang Qiong didn't ask any questions. But the woman's words made him make up his mind to attack Xijing Yushitai and Chang'an Mansion first this time. There was something wrong with the officials who were supervising the officials. As a result, the people had no place to go to complain, and they were even harmed again. That means that the officials of this court are almost at the point of terminal illness.
If we don't start to rectify it, and it reaches a point of hopelessness, then the Great Qi Dynasty will repeat the mistakes of previous dynasties. In fact, it doesn't have to be hopeless. Huang Qiong now feels that the court is sitting on the crater of a volcano. Once there is a slight disturbance, what awaits this dynasty will be the collapse of the building. It's never the straw that breaks a camel's back.
The administration of officials, clans, and land annexation have all reached a point where it is difficult to return. Although Huang Qiong also knows that this method of relying entirely on human governance, no matter how many systems are put in place, will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause if there is no one to supervise the implementation. But he couldn't figure out how to change it for the time being. All he can do now is to find ways to remedy the situation.
After a long silence, Huang Qiong raised his head and looked at the concubine who had been occupied by Mr. Chu. At this time, he had stopped what he was doing and was sitting in the water, not knowing what he was thinking about. Thinking of the two girls Zhao Jinse and Zhao Jinse who had a similar experience in Jingzhao Palace, they suddenly felt pity and said softly: "Now you have got your revenge. If you have any ideas for the next step, you can talk to me."
When the woman heard what he said, she shook her head, her eyes a little confused and said: "I don't know where to go. I can't go back to my husband's family now. My husband's family, after what happened, After that, he was kicked out of Xijing City by Mr. Chu, and now he is living in an unknown place. He belongs to a small family, and if he goes back, he will just be remarried to another family by them. "
"I have already harmed one family, so I don't want to involve other families. Perhaps the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha is the destination for a woman like me in her life. Born in an ordinary family, married to an ordinary family, beauty is a kind of What a disaster. What if I could go back to the past? If I had known that I would get into these bad things, I would rather be scolded to death by my husband and his family than go to the Chu family pharmacy to get medicine for my mother-in-law. "
"I am an extremely ominous person and have brought so much trouble to my husband's family. How can I show my face to the world now? If I hadn't been thinking about my five-year-old child, I would have lost my face. This world has already reached this point, so why bother harming other people. I just hope that His Highness, the Crown Prince, has some kind thoughts in his heart and can send me to that nunnery to stay."
Seeing the woman's tears dripping into the water when she said these words, Huang Qiong sighed softly. Beauty is like jade, but as she said, it may not really be a blessing for ordinary people, but may be more of a disaster. Let alone ordinary people, how many women like you are there around you? Even here in Xijing, who is there who brings troubles not because of his beauty?
Feeling the pain of this woman, Huang Qiong glanced at the two Madam Chu beside him, but said nothing more. He just lost interest in taking a bath and stood up from the tub. The two Mrs. Chu who were in a daze saw Huang Qiong suddenly stood up and hurriedly picked up the bath towel to wipe him. After wiping, the three women wanted to help Huang Qiong change clothes, but Huang Qiong hugged her.
After hugging the three women to the edge of the bed, Huang Qiong pushed Mrs. Chu's head down. Helpless Mrs. Chu could only open her little mouth. Second Master Chu's concubine named Qingyun was directly held in Huang Qiong's arms. But this woman remained as cold as ever in the face of Huang Qiong's evil hands. Huang Qiong was allowed to do whatever she wanted without saying a word.
