I’ll Be the Male Lead’s Sister-in-Law
Chapter 39: emptiness
Mu Mingtang didn't know that someone went out at night. She was still sleeping on the side of the bed. She could sleep darkly as soon as she touched the pillow. When she opened her eyes the next day, Xie Xuanchen was lying outside, her face straight and her brows. The painting is beautiful and pure.
How could Mu Mingtang think of hidden links after she fell asleep.
In fact, it was a misunderstanding that the two of them slept together at first. The next day Mu Mingtang wanted to move out, but the imperial physician sent by the court was too perfunctory. Mu Mingtang couldn’t see it, so he could only stay in the sleeping hall temporarily and let Xie Xuanchen beat her. cover. After all, if she slept alone, there would be a maid guarding her bed, and Mu Mingtang could not act alone anyway.
But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. She stayed like this for half a month. Even if Dr. Zhang was finally settled later, Mu Mingtang could not find a chance to move.
The living time is too long, and all the maids have become accustomed to it. If she suddenly moves out, the outsiders may have to think more about what happened. If the doctor is exposed as a result, it is bad.
Mu Mingtang struggled for several days, but couldn't find an impeccable excuse. As for Xie Xuanchen, as if he had forgotten about it, he never mentioned it again.
Mu Mingtang could only comfort himself for the long time coming to Japan, first temporarily stabilize, and then slowly look for opportunities in the future.
After she and Xie Xuanchen returned from a walk in the garden, they were always thinking about Xie Xuanchen's words. Xie Xuanchen said that the emperor wanted to save face, so during this time he would ask for them. No matter what Mu Mingtang did, the emperor would not pursue it, instead he would fill in the hole in a good manner.
The emperor's wool was not white or white. Mu Mingtang tentatively spent a lot of money in the gold jewelry store and almost bought half a building.
Sure enough, a few days later, there was another reward from the palace, this time from the queen. Afterwards, Mu Mingtang converted it at the market price and found that it was just a little bit more than she had spent.
The emperor's shot, of course, won't just make up the complete one, and always ask for the same price, or slightly more. Mu Mingtang was relieved, no matter what movement he made next, the palace would definitely express something.
At the beginning, the emperor thought that Xie Xuanchen was running out of time, and took advantage of the last period of time to show his generosity and virtue, so that when the only son of the first emperor died, no one could talk about the emperor.
The extravagance of tolerating the nephew's family is obviously one of them. The more extravagant Mu Mingtang is, the more he can reflect the simplicity of the royal family and the emperor's tolerance.
At the beginning, the emperor was very leisurely, but just doing something, how much money can a woman from the folks spend. It's really a bargain to trade insignificant money and silk for a bad reputation.
But later, the emperor couldn't sit still a bit, and Mu Mingtang was too much, right? She almost ransacked the gold market in Tokyo, and in the end, as soon as the merchant had a new gold article, she immediately came to Princess An.
But a lot has been done before. If you stop, it seems that the emperor is inconsistent and hypocritical. For his own reputation, and for the sake of his previous efforts, the emperor could only continue to spend money.
After all, to the emperor, money is really just a number. As long as Xie Xuanchen's thorny problem can be solved, no matter how much money he burns, it is worth it.
There was a lot of face-suffering in the palace, and now I can't let go. Mu Mingtang was very open-minded, it didn't matter, she didn't want face anyway. If such a good opportunity is missed, there will not be a second time. Of course, one must gather enough money to gather the emperor's wool.
How about spending a lot of money in a short period of time and making the most of the money? Naturally, buy gold. Jiaozi must be backed by the imperial court, and cloth, rice and grains are perishable, and only gold holds the most value.
Anyway, Mu Mingtang used to be a merchant girl, and her love for yellow and white objects fits her personality. She doesn't care that others say she is tacky, just say what she likes, anyway, the money is in her hands, and it is not painful to be ridiculed by a few vulgar words.
After the emperor changed his title, Xie Xuanchen seemed to disappear in the capital. After all, the common people don't pay attention to the affairs of the dynasty. Who knows who King An is, and the name of King Qiyang, who was famous in the war, is no longer mentioned in the capital.
The power of changing the name is quite huge, so once and again, the people would never hear about Xie Xuanchen. Outsiders had already forgotten Xie Xuanchen before he died.
The emperor was laying the groundwork for Xie Xuanchen's death, and everything was going smoothly. However, in the later stage, Mu Mingtang suddenly turned out, smashed money and bought several gold shops. Tokyo's commerce is extremely prosperous. As long as there is a market, there are no things that are not in circulation. Gold vendors from other places continue to run to the capital, and the reputation of King An’s Mansion has spread like never before.
Now that no one in the capital knows, Princess Ann loves gold and is very generous. As long as she likes it, she can buy a street with a wave.
Mu Mingtang became famous by surprise. The princess can spend money so much. Of course, many people care about who Wang An is. Gradually, someone connects Wang An with King Qiyang.
The emperor went around such a big circle, but in the end, he was defeated by Mu Mingtang's ability to spend money.
On the other side, Jiang Mingwei repeated it, and finally got better. After she recovered from her illness, in order to make Jiang Mingwei angry, her friends deliberately set up a game and pulled her out to relax.
The protagonist of today's game is naturally Jiang Mingwei. In addition to Jiang Mingwei and a few friends in the circle, there are also several other local wives in Beijing. They were all people who were accustomed to socializing. The female family members met each other and greeted each other, and everyone said Jiang Mingwei's kind words. However, they flattered for a long time, Jiang Mingwei's expression was faint, and it seemed that she couldn't beat her spirits.
My friend couldn't make it through, and asked: "Ming Wei, what's wrong with you? Are you still sick?"
Jiang Mingwei shook her head and said, "It's okay."
Physical illness is the second, the most important, is the lack of energy in the heart.
A good friend wanted to be interesting and deliberately said: "Ming Wei and King Jin have been married for almost two months, right? After so long, King Jin still makes you so tired?"
All the wives present are already married, and laugh ambiguously when they hear this. Although this is a joke, most of it is flattering. The husband-in-law stays in his room every night, still obsessed with it, and can't cope. Isn't it a face for a woman?
Of course, a good friend said this deliberately. Jiang Mingwei is most proud of being asked to marry by King Jin in every possible way, and she has no regrets. In the past, Jiang Mingwei always complained about this, but their eyes were not blind. Of course, they could recognize Jiang Mingwei as complaining, and she was clearly showing off.
This time my friend deliberately said this in front of everyone, just to vote for Jiang Mingwei. After the friend finished speaking, he waited expectantly for Jiang Mingwei's response, but Jiang Mingwei didn't talk or laugh, but pulled her lips listlessly.
"I was ill a few days ago, how can I keep the prince by my side? I am not one of those arrogant, I can't sleep without a man."
The friend's smile froze suddenly, and the others heard that it was wrong. Jiang Mingwei said this very poisonously, and seemed to be satirizing someone.
The ladies present quietly glanced at each other, tacitly. Jiang Mingwei fell ill some time ago, and the Queen Empress also sent someone to visit her. It's also a coincidence that after Jiang Mingwei sent two maids, the queen sent her confidant to the palace to care about her daughter-in-law. After that, Jiang Mingwei said that she was seriously ill and kept behind closed doors, and didn't even care about the affairs of the palace. It wasn't until recently that he recovered from his illness and reappeared in front of outsiders.
Yo, it seems that even childhood sweethearts, golden boys and girls, are still unavoidable.
My friend didn't expect to smack the horse's leg with a flattery, and was very embarrassed immediately, so he quickly changed to another topic. The expression on Jiang Mingwei's face was still faint, and she was still very angry and uncomfortable thinking about what happened last night.
In the past few days, because of her illness, the palace of the Jin Dynasty was full of smoke, and there were endless numbers of bed-climbing and self-recommended pillow seats. Jiang Mingwei guarded Xie Xuanji's side like an iron bucket, and she wanted to move over and stare. In order to act as an example, she did not hesitate to drag the sick body to deal with two, but in a blink of an eye, there was a maid in the palace to deliver medicine to Jiang Mingwei.
The mother obviously was sent by the queen to care about her condition, but in fact, both inside and outside were warning Jiang Mingwei not to be jealous and to let Xie Xuanji have children as soon as possible.
Jiang Mingwei felt cold when he heard those words. She had just taken the medicine, but her body was cold and her heart was even colder.
Although Mrs. Xie became a queen, she did not really love her. Xie Rui had not stayed in her room for the night. There are beautiful young and beautiful concubines in the palace. The second wife of Xie can become a queen because she gave birth to Xie Xuanji. Xie Rui cares about fame most and does not want to bear the handle of abandoning her chaotic wife.
Therefore, the queen is extremely concerned about Xie Xuanji. Xie Xuanji is indeed the most popular prince in the DPRK, but he is not the only candidate. Several of his younger brothers are about to grow up.
The position of the daughter-in-law and the mother-in-law is always different. The queen wants Xie Xuanji to give birth to a grandson as soon as possible, but it doesn't matter if it is from the wife.
Jiang Mingwei can spend extravagantly, can be without talent and virtue, but can't be jealous alone.
Although the queen is in the palace, she has put a lot of eyes and ears in the Jin Dynasty Palace. No, Jiang Mingwei just beat the maid serving the bed, and the queen sent someone over there.
Jiang Mingwei was rather discouraged after being warned by the queen. This is the auntie Xie who watched her grow up since childhood, and this is her mother-in-law. When I was in Lin'an, Mrs. Xie wanted to marry her as a daughter-in-law. What she said was so awkward. Even Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Jiang promised that after marrying Jiang Mingwei, they would treat Jiang Mingwei as her own girl. However, in only a few years, the queen has intervened in the private affairs of her son and daughter-in-law, and even blatantly favored Xuanji's generals.
Jiang Mingwei said it was a vacation for not being cold. When he was still in Lin'an, the Xie family lived next door to the Jiang family. Jiang Mingwei and Mrs. Xie were not as close as mother and daughter, but they were very harmonious. To Jiang Mingwei, Aunt Xie is closer than her biological aunt and aunt. Later, I heard adults teasing her and Xie Xuanji every day. Jiang Mingwei blushed brightly. In fact, she knew in her heart that she would enter the door of Xie's house in the future, adding a layer of intimacy to Mrs. Xie.
However, things have changed day by day after their status soared and moved to Tokyo. Jiang Mingwei watched Xie's family go further and further, and Mrs. Xie also became stranger. When Mrs. Xie became the queen, the gentle and kind Aunt Xie in the memory was completely dead. Sitting on it was a strange woman she didn't even know.
Jiang Mingwei in the first life could not adjust such a gap. In addition, the young people were eager, youthful and rebellious, thinking that their family was not cold to her, and she did not bother to marry Xie's. In those years, she still paid attention to Xie Xuanchen's news, but Jiang Mingwei knew that it was impossible for herself and Xie Xuanchen, whether it was before or after Xie Xuanchen's accident. She could only marry Xie Xuanji, who was worse off everywhere, as if she was a general Xie Xuanji.
Jiang Mingwei couldn't adjust her temperament. Later, she met Yeluyan, who was enthusiastic and hearty, who was very different from the Central Plains man. Her heart was sprouting, and she followed love and freedom regardless.
Later, when Jiang Mingwei heard the news of the Ye Dynasty, she wanted to slap herself when she eloped. When he was born again in this life, Jiang Mingwei immediately turned and returned to China.
She was afraid that she was blind in the last life, obviously, this is her destination.
After Jiang Mingwei came back, she was nervous and relieved when she finally married Xie Xuanji. She finally corrected the mistakes made in her previous life, and then she can sit back and relax.
Does Jiang Mingwei love Xie Xuanji? No, he was just a decent candidate for her husband. Later, after learning about Xie Xuanji's future achievements, Jiang Mingwei was even more unlikely to miss such a good opportunity. In this respect, Xie Xuanji is not even comparable to Yeluyan, at least at the beginning, Jiang Mingwei really fell in love enthusiastically.
As for Xie Xuanchen, love can't be said, nor can it seem to be like. Jiang Mingwei actually had very little contact with Xie Xuanchen and hadn't even seen it a few times.
However, who made Xie Xuanchen appear in front of her with high spirits and radiance. Some people can't make waves in their hearts for a lifetime, but some people, just one side, is amazing enough.
However, surprises can't be eaten as a meal. Those heartbeats and longings that seem to be unavailable are not enough to make Jiang Mingwei give up Xie Xuanji, who is destined to become emperor, and be delayed by Xie Xuanchen who will not live for a few days. When Jiang Mingwei saw Xie Xuanchen again, there were still waves in her heart, but that was all. Marriage is marriage, and heartbeat is heartbeat, and should not be confused.
Jiang Mingwei sincerely regards Princess Jin as her career, and more than that, she will also become the queen and the queen mother. Jiang Mingwei is ambitious. She thinks she has made a lot of achievements, but what the queen did seems to throw cold water on her head, making Jiang Mingwei very heartbroken.
Jiang Mingwei stayed behind closed doors and deliberately got angry for a while. She waited for a long time, only to find that no one paid attention to her in the palace or Xie Xuanji.
Jiang Mingwei's pain worsened, but slowly became sober. What is she doing, she is born again, is it to be jealous with a few maids?
In Xie Xuanji's capacity, there is no shortage of women around him. He can guard against the present and the future. It's better to open up openly so that Xie Xuanji can see her virtuousness and miss her better. She is a person who wants to be a woman of the world, like a drug woman and a shrew in the market, making trouble for her concubine's room.
Jiang Mingwei warned herself not to be so petty, and then stopped forcibly blocking the girl who climbed the bed. In this way, it is like releasing floodgates, and demons and ghosts emerge in endlessly. In the first few days, Xie Xuanji still cared about Jiang Mingwei and ignored it, but last night, he called water.
When Jiang Mingwei heard the news, her heart was like a knife, and she realized that no matter how nice she said it, or how open she was, she couldn't care less when this happened.
Jiang Mingwei basically stayed up all night last night, repeating what Xie Xuanji and another woman were doing in the house. It is especially ironic that Xie Xuanji asked for water more than once in his room.
This is simply slap her in the face of his wife in public. Because even when Xie Xuanji and her were newly married, they never did it a second time.
Jiang Mingwei was originally upset today, but because of the lack of eyesight, he deliberately mentioned this. Jiang Mingwei's new hatred and old hatred came up together, and couldn't help but ridicule. The one who couldn't sleep without the man, naturally seduced Xie Xuanji's cheap hoof last night.
Jiang Mingwei's expression was obviously not good, and even if others saw that Jiang Mingwei was in a wrong state, they would not dare to ask any more. They smiled and changed the subject, deliberately bluffing and laughing, trying to warm up the atmosphere. One of the wives talked about the new things in the capital in the past few days, and said with a smile: “There have been a lot of strange things in the capital recently. The price of gold has been falling day by day, but the price of gold has been getting higher day by day. I think if it goes up again, we even have gold hairpin I can't afford it."
This wife was joking, but after she finished speaking, she realized that Jiang Mingwei was also there. Mu Mingtang's spending money has spread throughout the capital, and the rising gold price is all due to her alone. I used to just smile with my close friends in private. Today, in front of Princess Jin, how did you mention that person?
Sure enough, the scene suddenly became cold after saying this sentence, and the wife who was speaking was extremely embarrassed, and the others looked at their words and thoughts and quickly turned off the topic. Unexpectedly, there was not a few words to interrupt, Jiang Mingwei took the topic back by herself: "Sister-in-law likes gold and silver most. Gold is new and bright for jewelry, and it's good."
At this time, the celebrities of the capital were pursuing elegance and indifference, and what they wanted was the weak and thin beauty, and the yellow and white things were too vulgar. Jiang Mingwei's words sounded like speaking for Mu Mingtang, but they were in fact taunting Mu Mingtang's vulgar taste.
Speaking of the conversation, all the ladies, you and I will talk about Mu Mingtang. A wife smiled and said: "Princess An is really mysterious. I have heard her name without seeing her. I have never met Princess An."
Another person answered: "I was lucky enough to meet one person when I attended the wedding of Princess Jin. But I just looked at one side from a distance without saying anything. I don't know what kind of temperament Princess An is like. But looking at the scene at that time, Concubine An's everything is fine, she is indeed not bad for money."
Everyone sighed uncontrollably. No matter how ridiculous people are vulgar, you can't change the fact that all the money is in their pockets. In contrast, Gao Ya can sell for a few dollars.
Nowadays, the topic of noble ladies in Beijing can't be avoided by Mu Mingtang, she is really a terrible woman, and she never buys things, on the street. Some people dislike Mingtang's taste and vulgarity, but more people are envious.
A former husband emptied a street for her, and later the emperor lavishly rewarded him. Who wouldn't envy such extravagance?
Someone said: "King An is very wealthy, and the palace is rewarded from time to time. Now in the backyard of King An's mansion, there is a woman who is the princess. All the money is spent on her. She doesn't just do what she wants, and she doesn't have any scruples. What?"
Jiang Mingwei has always been proud of her high marriage. When people say Mu Mingtang, she originally despised it. But I didn't expect that half of the people in the audience would show their approval after saying this.
Jiang Mingwei raised her eyebrows unexpectedly, and immediately said: "Sister-in-law will be clean after marrying. She does not need to manage the mansion or serve her in-laws. It is naturally very easy. She is the only one in the backyard of Wang An's mansion, and she will not be Many, it’s really the most suitable for my sister-in-law’s character. I'm just a toil, not better than my sister-in-law."
After saying this, everyone was silent. After Jiang Mingwei finished speaking, she raised her teacup to hide the sneer on her lips.
Although Jiang Mingwei used an enviable tone, she actually felt a burst of malicious joy in her heart. Not long ago, she was still heartbroken for her husband having another woman, and she immediately mocked Mu Mingtang's widowhood. Just like Mu Mingtang's marriage, I am afraid that there will be no normal husband and wife life in his lifetime, and he can only cover his inner emptiness by spending money. What is the use of the money she spends?
It's really sad.
