There was silence all around, and the sound of the heavy falling sticks was particularly harsh.
Xia Yunxian's words were like a wake-up call, making Liu Chengyu sober up instantly.
Although the glory of his defeat has passed, and he was lucky enough to gain military honors before returning home safely, if the Hou Mansion wants to rise again, there will be many jealous people who will stop him!
"Hit, beat hard!" Just killing a maid can not only make Xia Yunxian angry, but also warn everyone in the house to be calm, why not?
Jiang Ruyan stared blankly at Liu Chengyu's sudden change of attitude, and felt a chill rising on the soles of her feet, as if those sticks had fallen on her.
After Qing Tao's body was dragged away, a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes appeared in front of Jiang Ruyan's eyes, and a meaningful voice came from above his head.
"Sister, you should be careful in the future. Not everyone is worth helping or saving. If Qingtao just bites you, I don't know who to trust."
"...Sister, you have taught me a lesson." Her voice could not suppress the trembling, and the feeling of fear filled her heart.
If this scapegoat had not been found today, would she have been the one who was killed?
Seeing her guilty look, Xia Yunxian sneered in her heart.
Liu Wenyao and Liu Wenxin are both six years old this year, and I have only been married to Liu Chengyu for five years. It can be seen that the two of them had been secretly having sex before they got engaged!
Since she wanted to be part of the Liu family so much, then she, as her elder sister, would naturally tear her dream to pieces!
"I heard that the crown prince escaped from the enemy country and was seriously injured on the way. Sister Xinxin took care of him day and night."
"She was driven away by your Xia family, so she had no choice but to go to her hometown to find relatives, and she happened to meet me."
Liu Chengyu snorted coldly, his tone full of dissatisfaction, but Xia Yunxian frowned, "It was obviously sister Ruyan who left the letter and ran away, so why did the general's mansion turn her away? Did she make some shameful mistake?"
Shameless...
It seems that even Liu Chengyu was scolded by this!
"The General's Mansion is as kind to Ruyan as a mountain. Don't misunderstand me, Prince. It's Ruyan who misses his hometown."
Liu Chengyu was about to get angry, but Jiang Ruyan quickly stopped him. He looked eager to explain, as if he was afraid that they would argue over it.
But Xia Yunxian finally heard it. This ambiguous words were very clever. I am afraid that in Liu Chengyu's view, she was afraid of his viciousness and had no choice but to help cover it up.
However, Xia Yunxian didn't even bother to let him believe it. No matter how much he said, it would only be regarded as sophistry.
"In short, there is no girl who has not left the court to live in someone else's mansion. Sister Ruyan's reputation has been damaged because of the prince. The prince's mansion should shoulder this responsibility and give her a place to live."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Chengyu and Jiang Ruyan both showed surprised expressions. Why did she suddenly agree?
Xia Yunxian smiled softly and said, "It just so happens that my mother-in-law lacks a capable girl. My sister took good care of my mother in the past. Now I might as well stay in my mother-in-law's yard and fulfill her filial duty for the prince."
"You, you want me to be a big girl?"
Jiang Ruyan opened her mouth in disbelief. She said how could Xia Yunxian be so kind? She was pretending to be confused because she understood!
It was enough not to let her in, but to humiliate her like this!
"You can't say that. My sister is the prince's savior. Who dares to treat you like a girl? You must not be called like Miss Yan in front of others. I will respect you wherever you go."
joke!
Why respect her so much? No matter how respected Aunt Lei is by the old lady, she is still a servant!
"Why, you don't want to? How about this? How about this concubine being your matchmaker and choosing a good family for you to marry?"
"No! Ruyan is willing to serve the old lady, as long as she can stay with the prince and let Ruyan work as a cow or a horse." When Jiang Ruyan said this, she looked pitifully at Liu Chengyu next to her.
She has already given birth to a child, how can she marry again? There is no way out unless she runs away!
Seeing that the prince was about to ascend the throne, and she was about to enjoy endless glory and wealth, she could only say that she had underestimated her enemy too much today, and that was why she allowed Xia Yunxian to do whatever she wanted!
"That's fine, you take good care of the old lady. With my son here, no one dares to treat you badly!" When Liu Chengyu said this, he gave Xia Yunxian a vicious look.
Even though he was unhappy, he knew that he couldn't push her anymore. Besides, if he could make his picky old mother happy, Yan'er would be able to live a more comfortable life in the future.
Seeing Jiang Ruyan's expression as if he had taken a reassurance, Xia Yunxian felt extremely ridiculous.
Resenting the general's government for mistreating her? Only when she lives in the old lady's yard will she understand what it means to truly be under someone else's roof!
…
"The Crown Princess is finally redeemed!"
The next day, Chunxiao came out of the pawn shop and carefully carried a pile of jewelry into the carriage.
Xia Yunxian's eyes couldn't help but feel wet as she looked at the old things in her arms.
She deliberately revealed Jiang Ruyan's theft to Mrs. Liu because she knew that with the greedy nature of the Liu family, she would coerce and induce her to spit it all out!
From beginning to end, she was trying to find her mother's beloved possessions.
As she expected, Jiang Ruyan had no choice but to exchange these jewelry for silver coins in order to please Liu Chengyu, and now they are finally back to their original owners.
"There is still a gold hairpin left. It is a token of love given by my father. Go to the next pawn shop and have a look."
However, the carriage waited at another street corner for a long time, but Chunxiao did not come back. The surroundings suddenly became extremely quiet. Xia Yunxian noticed something strange and was about to get out of the car to check, when a pair of big cold hands instantly covered her mouth!
Her vision went dark, and the man who suddenly broke into the carriage had already pinned her firmly in the corner, and his magnetic joking voice sounded.
"The dignified Princess Yongding has turned into a little thief. Do you think it's interesting?"
Bai Yujing? !
The familiar warmth made her heart skip a beat. Feeling his unscrupulous groping movements on her body, Xia Yunxian's eyes turned red and she punched him angrily.
But the man became even more interested and simply pressed her down on the stool, "Now I know I'm scared. Where are the things?"
The nose was filled with the rich fragrance of powder. Xia Yunxian immediately understood that he was probably in a gentle village not long ago, and felt nauseated in his stomach!
This nasty man didn't have enough for her, so he came to provoke her!
"Do not touch me!"
The other party was stunned for a moment, and then laughed angrily, "Getting angry with me? Then continue what we didn't finish last time!"
The icy cold wind mixed with the long-lost fear swept over again. With a tearing sound, he unceremoniously pulled open Xia Yunxian's top, and his domineering kiss immediately fell on her delicate collarbone...
