Chapter Thirteen Brother and Brother
The stars fall and the night is as cool as water, and the wind brings coldness.
Rong Chu was in business and had not come back yet. Liuli was called to Lifangyuan shortly after Rong Chu left the mansion. She was prepared to be troubled by the princess, but after she came, she was slightly different from what she thought.
As one of the best yards in the backyard, Lifangyuan looks elegant and noble everywhere. After being influenced by Liuli for a long time, he has gained some strength in his eyes. Unlike Qingqiu Pavilion, Lifangyuan is more dignified and grand.
The maid led her into the inner room. Through the faint screen, she saw the woman lying on the couch.
She lowered her eyes and remained silent. She knelt on the ground, so quiet that it seemed to not exist.
Jiang Mingxue was not calm inside, and she also silently looked at the woman kneeling. The maid was not like a maid, and the noble girl was not like a noble girl. She couldn't find any mistakes and made her angry everywhere.
She never looked up for a long time or asked a question.
Jiang Mingxue wanted to laugh a little. Sure enough, even though she had been in another world for many years, she could not be as patient as these people, recognize her identity, bend and stretch, and be obedient everywhere.
How many years have it been? She forgot.
She is irritable, irritable, straightforward, inexplicable, jealous and unkind. These rumors about her are not all fake. Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles away. Even if people around her deliberately conceal them, she still knows it.
"Get up and sit down." It's not for pure trouble.
Liuli didn't know why she was calling her here now. He heard that the princess and prince parted again, and thought that the princess's heart should be unhappy.
"Thank you for your son-in-law." Liuli was introduced into the screen again and sat not far from the couch.
Now all beads are removed.
Her hair is like a waterfall, and the princess does not use any makeup. Without the description of the powder, Liuli discovered that the princess's sharp attack power has been reduced a lot, making her feel approachable.
"Today, the prince asked me if I would like to leave." Jiang Mingxue sat up slowly and waved Chunjiao's service.
This was originally a private matter between them, but Jiang Mingxue told her directly.
Liuli was stunned. How could she reply? No matter how smart she is, she would have to be careful when she is involved in the in-laws of the two families. She would know that she should be cautious when she returns well. If she returns poorly, she would not make any mistakes. If she returns poorly, she would be a reason to send her out at will.
The princess and princess are worthy of being husband and wife, and their abilities are exactly the same as those that make people speechless.
"Will you be happy? What if I and the prince are separated?" Jiang Mingxue asked.
"I am frightened and uneasy. The prince and the prince's concubine are really good matches." Liuli picked some good words that were useless and unforgettable to answer her.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Mingxue smiled, laughed for a while before saying, "You are just interesting. You all know that the prince is not in harmony with me, but they still say good matches made by heaven and earth. In the early years, I thought it was some flattering lies, but later I figured it out that this was just a cliché that you can write freely and don't want to blame me. I always ask, but I can't get a half-truth."
"The prince is extremely kind to the prince's concubine. This is not a lie to me." Liuli didn't know what the prince's concubine wanted to do, but she still replied like this.
"Kuanhe?" Jiang Mingxue repeated her words, "When you said Kuanhe means I yelled at him but he didn't punish me for this, or do I mean that I was irritable and could tolerate me, or that I was jealous and arrogant but did not abandon me? Your definition of Kuanhe is really low."
Among the thousands of sufferings that women in this world have suffered, Jiang Mingxue suffered only a little bit. The petite lady of a wealthy family naturally felt wronged.
It’s not that they have too low definition of Kuanghe, but that the prince’s concubine has too high definition of Kuanghe.
Liuli developed compassion, and could not tell who she was compassionate. She was not worthy of the princess. She was a joke to herself.
"Guess why the prince asked to divorce me?" Jiang Mingxue asked.
"I don't know." Liuli replied.
It’s not because of her, the prince, who has hundreds or thousands of plans in his heart, and others can’t figure it out thoroughly. Love and marriage are both light and indifferent.
"He doesn't like me, so I have taken the position of Princess for many years. He has given me enough face to the Jiang family. Now that I have the opportunity, I will naturally send me away early." Jiang Mingxue laughed at himself, "It has nothing to do with you."
The Marquis's family has been infatuated for generations and attaches great importance to his wife, but the prince Rong Chu is an exception.
Liuli still remembers the complaint Rong Shu told her: "Brother is not marrying a wife, it is obvious that she is just marrying a useful bargaining chip in the position of a wife."
Like is second, and usefulness is the reason for his choice.
The princess stubbornly believed that it was because he didn't love him, so how could he be so simple? That was the reason, but it was only one of the insignificant reasons among many reasons.
"I won't be able to divorce the prince, he dreams!"
Until she came out of Lifang Courtyard, Liuli still didn't understand the purpose of the prince's concubine asking her to go. She insisted on saying that she was a sensible listener. Listening to her venting, complaining, and making her swearing decisions was not like her main wife or concubine, but like a close friend in her boyfriend, which was ridiculous.
Unexpectedly, the princess is a simple one.
Stop and look back, Liuli smiled helplessly and went back to her yard.
Private school
Bai Mingqian came back to continue to attend class after he recovered from illness. His clothes were simple and monotonous, but they were of good material. Because he was born well, it was no different from the appearance of his son.
Liuli has only this younger brother. She is still thinking about the rewards she has given back and occasionally gets a few good pieces of material, so she makes clothes for her younger brother. She usually does her best to support her younger brother.
In her eyes, the younger brother is weak and has a thin body. He is obedient and sensible on weekdays. Although he is not talented in studying, health is the most important thing, and the younger brother still needs her child to take care of him.
Most of the other students in private schools have poor families, and being able to send them in is a family's strength, and clothes patches are the norm. Compared with them, Bai Mingqian seems much more abrupt.
Of course, there are also some families with good families but not that good enough to be sent to a higher-level college or private school, so they chose this private school second. Li Juren is very kind, not limited to wealth and poverty, and has talent and knowledge. If he had not given up the imperial examination because of family affairs, he would have been a Jinshi now.
"Mingqian, are you healthy?" Bai Mingqian surrounded his table with a few children, all of whom were friends with each other on weekdays, both poor and rich, and they all looked clever and noisy.
"It's okay." Bai Mingqian replied. If his face was not still pale, everyone would believe it, "You guys go back and sit."
Sitting in front of him was the youngest son of the Lou family who opened a restaurant at home. He waited until everyone dispersed before turning around, "You are too weak. I heard that you almost didn't get through. Your sister took care of you for several days and nights and didn't close her eyes, which scared me so badly. At that time, I was still thinking, if you really can't hold on, your sister would be crazy."
Lou Huan's voice was very small and he was still in shock. He was the one with Bai Mingqian among these people. He also went to see him a few days after he was sick.
"I won't have any trouble. I'll have trouble you these days." Bai Mingqian smiled, looking particularly sick and pitiful.
After he fainted, Lou Huan helped call the doctor and then accompanied him. He sent someone to call his sister, and Bai Mingqian remembered this love.
"It's fine. You don't have to be polite to me. I wasn't thanks to you when I got sick last time." Lou Huan scratched his head, "By the way, I heard from the doctor that you need to take good care of your body. Can you break the medicinal herbs and medicinal food? Your sister is only a relative. What if something happens to you?"
Lou Huan was really scared by Liuli's collapse and helpless look that day. He sighed that Bai Mingqian had a good sister, and he also felt that it was not easy for the siblings to depend on each other for life.
"I know." Bai Mingqian's tone was very light.
He thought that it would be fine if he died, so he would not be a burden to his sister, but his sister's crying and despair made him realize how stupid he was. If he really died, his sister would probably not be able to hold on. He would live well, support his sister, and wait for his brother to come back.
This body was so weak. He asked the doctor and got a set of methods. As long as he persisted, he would not get sick from time to time. One illness would cost a lot of money and he would also have to work hard.
However, my sister hasn't come back in the past few days, and there is still that letter.
In the letter, the sister said that she was a concubine for the prince. He was not a child. He knew what the concubine was. This matter was a foregone conclusion. Now he was powerless. Sister has always had an idea, so she could only do this.
The feeling of powerlessness surged in my heart. My elder sister also became a concubine for someone like this, but later she couldn't even find her body.
He will not let the tragedy happen again. He must think carefully and find a way out to rescue his sister. Even if his sister says that she was willing, if she takes it seriously, then he will be the backing of his sister. Whether it is a civilian or a prince, no one can let his sister be wronged again. His sister has been suffering enough for him for so many years.
After school, Lou Huan invited him to go back together, but Bai Mingqian refused.
My sister can't leave the house at will now, so she can only let him do some things.
In prison, a man frequently looked into the only passage, frowned slightly.
The prisoner was gnawing on the chicken legs and chewing them all over. He was also strange and started talking to him, "Why haven't your sister come yet? It should have been here this time before, nothing will happen."
Bai Mingheng was imprisoned here for a few years, and only stayed in prison for a few years. Knowing his causes and consequences is also considered "harmonious". It is also the old rule for brothers and sisters to make an appointment to meet each other in the past.
Bai Mingheng's face was even more scary because of the low pressure. He clenched his hands into fists, and he felt suspicious and worried because of the words of the prison head.
"No." He answered this way, and told himself this way.
"Yes, your sister has always been obedient and works in the Marquis' Mansion, so nothing can happen." The prison head thought about it carefully and replied.
Someone is here!
Hearing the footsteps, Bai Mingheng and the prison head breathed a sigh of relief.
Not Glazed.
"Mingqian, why is it you?" Bai Mingheng asked.
The prison leader left voluntarily, which was a special treatment for him. If others came to visit the prison, they would have to pay some money to give them a separate space.
"Brother." Bai Mingqian lowered his head guiltily, "Sister cannot leave the house at will now, so I will come and see my brother."
"What's going on?" His tone became cold, and he looked straight at his younger brother who was much shorter than him and questioned.
Bai Mingqian spoke several times, said a few times, and finally told the truth.
"Mrs. Hou asked my sister to be a concubine for the prince, and the prince agreed. Now, my sister is the prince's concubine Bai's concubine."
"What did you say."
In the silence, Bai Mingqian saw his brother's dazed look and said, "Sister said she was voluntary and she had her own plans so that we don't have to worry."
Just as he finished speaking, it was like a spark that ignited firecrackers.
Bai Mingheng suddenly grabbed the younger brother's collar, "Bai Mingqian, are you a fool? The wealthy families in high schools are all dark and pickled places. If your sister enters such a place, do you think it is a great blessing!"
He suddenly let go, and Bai Mingqian fell to the ground. He was already weak and covered the position where he was bleeding with pain.
Bai Mingheng looked at the young brother coldly. Compared to the young brother, he cared more about the younger sister Bai Zhi. How much hardship has suffered for the younger brother and sister over the years. He even thought that this time, the younger brother caused trouble, which made his sister compromising to marry the prince.
Even in this jail, he heard the usual rules of the Hou Mansion and never took concubines. If his sister really became a concubine, could she have good fruits? Neither the Hou Mansion nor the Jiang family would make her sister very easy, and the spit outside could overwhelm her sister.
The more I think about it, the more worried he is, the more wronged he feels for his sister.
The younger brother was raised by his sister. He raised him like a half son. He couldn't bear to eat any hardship. He thought he was a innocent and innocent little lamb, but Bai Mingheng knew at a glance that this younger brother was not a good-looking guy.
"I don't." Bai Mingqian stood up with a pain, and his face turned into a resentment that was exactly the same as Bai Mingheng's face. "I don't want my sister to suffer in the mansion, but what can we do now? Brother, why are you angry at me? You have been trapped in prison for all these years, and my sister has been running around for you. There are also many monthly money and rewards. Do you feel sorry for my sister, don't I feel sorry for me? But what can I do? Could it be that I can go into the mansion and rob my sister out? We are so different from the Marquis' Mansion, and what dreams are there? My sister has always had ideas, and she said words of comfort in order to be afraid of our worries. What are you up here? If you have the ability, you will become a high-ranking and generous adult, and you will not suffer such suffering."
"How much money is thrown into this prison every year to make you live so comfortable. If you don't like me, I won't be very satisfied with you. You can only be furious here. Instead of going crazy at me, it's better to think about how to get out of here. We have lost a sister, and I don't want my sister to go on that old path. I will see you as usual as my sister wants, and there is no other one again."
Bai Mingqian gave him the package, turned around and left.
The prisoner saw that the person left, and then came back staggeringly. He looked at the person who didn't say anything at all. He felt a little choked in his heart. He wouldn't have really been called by him, a crow.
"Bai Mingheng, what's wrong with you?" He asked with a light cough.
He just pretended that he didn't see the package. Every time he came to visit, the package was filled with books and clothes. Those who received the money could also be reasonable and pretend to be deaf.
