Rebirth, guarding the mute at the tip of my heart

Jiang family.

Jiang Xingyu was busy accompanying his father to see off the last wave of guests. He finally couldn't help but vent his anger that he had been holding back for a day: "What does Jiang Xin mean? He didn't even show up for his sister's wedding. If outsiders saw it, they would probably laugh at us!"

At home, he was smiling and drinking, and carrying the bride on his back. But this guy, I don't know where he has gone to be lazy!

Earlier, he had overturned his sister's dowry box in the side hall. Even if his sister had taken that guy's glass cup, on such a happy day, why couldn't they talk it out? He had also lost face!

The way he looked at Jiang Xin, it was clearly intentional!

Jiang Zhengchu was also very angry. He frowned after hearing Jiang Xingyu's complaint and asked Manager Li beside him, "Where are they?"

"My lord, the eldest young master has just gone out with Master Nan and Master Yao." Manager Li replied respectfully. He knew that his master was on the verge of getting angry, so he naturally did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.

"...He is so leisurely!" Jiang Zhengchu's breath was stuck in his throat. He paused for a long time before turning his gaze to Fu Xuerong and said coldly, "Come with me into the study."

"...Yes." Fu Xuerong lowered her head and responded obediently.

When Jiang Xingyu saw this, he knew that his mother would definitely be scolded this time. Although he felt a little distressed, he did not dare to disobey his father. He just shrank his neck and pretended nothing had happened as he returned to his room.

*

"Master..." Fu Xuerong entered the study room, and before Jiang Zhengchu could speak, she lowered her head and took the initiative to admit her mistake: "It was my fault. I just thought that my daughter was marrying the prince, so I wanted to prepare Yu'er's dowry in a decent way.

I didn't expect Yu'er to take the glass cup from Xin'er's room and cause so much trouble."

If Jiang Daiyu was still in the Jiang Mansion, she would certainly be severely punished by the furious Jiang Zhengchu, but she has now married into another family. Although Fu Xuerong appeared to be humble on the surface, she was not very afraid in her heart.

At most he would be scolded, but there was no way he would divorce me.

Fu Xuerong guessed correctly, Jiang Zhengchu really wanted to lose his temper, and even wanted to hit someone!

But Jiang Daiyu married into the palace, and Jiang Xin also ran away. The only person he wanted to beat, scold, and vent his anger on was Fu Xuerong.

Fu Xuerong has been in poor health since she gave birth. If he really slapped her, she might be half dead.

What's more, Fu Xuerong had asked him about the matter of embezzling the dowry. He knew about it and agreed to it. If he took action against Fu Xuerong at this time, wouldn't it be a slap in his own face?

Jiang Zhengchu raised his shaking hands twice, then dropped them heavily, saying sternly, "Your biggest mistake is that you didn't discipline that rebellious girl! When has the family ever treated her badly? I gave her so much dowry but she's still not satisfied, and she keeps staring at that glass lamp!"

“Yes, it’s my fault.” Fu Xuerong lowered her head even lower, took out her handkerchief and cried, “That day in Wei’s mansion, when the virtuous prince won the glass cup and gave it to Xin’er, I knew that Yu’er liked it very much.

Later, Yu'er wanted to borrow it from Xin'er for two days, but as you know, Xin'er and Yu'er have always had a bad relationship, so she naturally refused.

Probably because of this, Yu Er got angry and wanted to scare him, so she did this. Please forgive me, Master."

Fu Xuerong was not afraid that Jiang Zhengchu would go to Jiang Xin to verify. He was very angry now and probably wanted to beat Jiang Xin, the unfilial son, to death.

Now that I have given him a ready-made opportunity to put all the blame on Jiang Xin, he will believe it without hesitation and vent his anger at Jiang Xin with a clear conscience.

Sure enough, after hearing Fu Xuerong's words, Jiang Zhengchu was stunned for only two seconds before he became furious. If it weren't for this rebellious son's selfishness and unwillingness to lend the colored glass to his sister, Yu'er wouldn't have taken the thing away out of anger, leading to the dowry being opened and exposed to outsiders...

Yes, it’s all this rebellious son’s fault!

At this time, Jiang Zhengchu seemed to have completely forgotten that even if there was no Liulizhan incident, his secret use of his ex-wife's dowry to support his second wife was wrong in itself.

"This rebellious son, this rebellious son..." Jiang Zhengchu was so angry that he paced back and forth, clenching his fists again and again. One can imagine what kind of blame Jiang Xin would have received if he was still at home at this time.

Fu Xuerong saw that the groundwork was almost done, so she took the opportunity to remind him, "Master, I will reflect on Yu'er's matter, but the most urgent matter now is the two young masters brought by Jiang Xin.

I heard from Manager Li that Jiang Xin took those two young masters out for a drink. Who knows what they would say. If those two stood up for Jiang Xin and said something out loud..."

"Bang!" Jiang Zhengchu slapped the table hard, and angrily said with a sullen face: "He dares!!"

It's not "they dare" but "he dares". Obviously, he regards those two people as being in the same group with Jiang Xin. If those two people leak anything, he will definitely blame it all on Jiang Xin!

The pain from his palm calmed Jiang Zhengchu down a bit, he pinched his brows irritably, and said with strong resentment: "I have warned this rebellious son in the side hall before, he dare not instigate those two to talk nonsense.

Furthermore, the Yao family and the Nan family are still neutral now, and Yu'er has already married the Fourth Prince. If unfavorable rumors about Yu'er spread from these two families, it would be tantamount to offending the Fourth Prince and standing against him.

At that time, they will be forced to take sides in advance. Both families are experienced and will not get involved in the dispute over the throne for such a small matter."

Fu Xuerong heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then as if she had thought of something, she said, "What about the wise king..."

The Agui next to Jiang Xin was sent by Xie Ze. Today's events can be hidden from others, but Xie Ze will definitely know.

Given that madman's temper, I wonder if he will stand up for Jiang Xin?

When Jiang Zhengchu mentioned the virtuous king, he felt a headache. He paused for a long time before saying, "Well, tomorrow you prepare some gifts and follow me to the virtuous king's mansion to see Ah Xin. Then you apologize to Ah Xin in front of the virtuous king with a sincere attitude, so that the virtuous king knows that you have never treated him unfairly."

Jiang Xin can't live in Prince Xian's mansion forever. He will have to go home one day. If Prince Xian really values ​​Jiang Xin, he wouldn't do such a thing. How will Jiang Xin cope with the situation when he returns to the Jiang Mansion in the future?

Although Fu Xuerong was annoyed, she also knew that her and her daughter's reputation was more important at the moment. She nodded and was about to agree when she heard the voice of Manager Li coming from afar: "Master, it's bad! Something big has happened!"

"Why are you so flustered?!" Jiang Zhengchu was already a little angry at this incompetent old man. Seeing his expression, he scolded him unhappily: "You make a fuss over a small matter. You have no brains at all. I think you don't need to be the manager anymore!"

Manager Li no longer cared about his position as manager. He looked at his master with a panicked and helpless expression, and said hurriedly: "Master, that virtuous prince went crazy in the Fourth Prince's mansion and directly withheld the young lady's dowry!"

Jiang Zhengchu and Fu Xuerong's faces changed drastically: "What?!!"

This lunatic! That was a marriage granted by the Emperor, how dare he, how dare he act so recklessly? !

"Quick, quick!" Fu Xuerong was already confused at this time. All the strategies she had just thought of against Jiang Xin were useless at this moment. She just grabbed Jiang Zhengchu's arm in a panic and said anxiously:

"Master, let's go over and take a look. We can't let anything go wrong with Yu'er's marriage, Master!"

Who cares about the marriage of that rebellious girl now! Jiang Zhengchu was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes. He finally got on the boat of the Fourth Prince, and now he was disturbed like this. If nothing else, the Fourth Prince would definitely have a grudge against him, and he might not use him again in the future.

But he has already boarded the Fourth Prince's ship and married his daughter to him. Even if he switches to another force, it is impossible.

The road that he thought would lead him to greatness had ended in a dead end before it even began. How could Jiang Zhengchu, who was obsessed with power, not be anxious? He did not care about anything else and quickly took his wife on the carriage to the Fourth Prince's Palace.

*

There were many guests in the Fourth Prince's Mansion, but they did not sit in their seats at this moment. Instead, they all ran to the side door and looked at the Fourth Prince and the Virtuous King standing there with grim faces. Next to the Fourth Prince stood her beautiful concubine.

But for some reason, the concubine had actually lifted up her red veil by herself, her eyes sparkling with tears, and she glared at the virtuous king.

The story began half an hour ago.

When Jiang Daiyu's dowry was brought into the palace, the virtuous king suddenly, as if he had a hysteria, ordered his men to surround the dowry and no one was allowed to approach. He also kicked all the dowry boxes away and asked his men to register each item one by one.

Everyone present was dumbfounded and had no idea what the wise king was doing.

The Fourth Prince was even more furious. He had thought that after marrying Jiang Daiyu, he would use the Jiang family to establish a good relationship with Xie Ze. But this lunatic actually went crazy on his wedding day and ruined his wedding. How could he tolerate this? !

Moreover, this happened in the Fourth Prince's residence. If this lunatic continued to cause trouble, how would he save his dignity? !

Thinking of this, the Fourth Prince quickly ordered his men to surround Xie Ze and his men, as if he would not kill them unless they gave him an explanation.

However, at this moment, the servant under Xie Ze who was recording suddenly raised his head and said in a loud voice: "Don't misunderstand, Fourth Prince. Our prince has good intentions."

“…What nonsense!”

"It's true!" The servant was not afraid of the Fourth Prince's cold face at all. He had been trained by his own prince's cold face at home. At this moment, he was very calm and confident in front of the Fourth Prince:

"The wedding procession was so disorganized just now that our prince suspected something might have gone wrong, so he ordered Miss Jiang's dowry to be seized and recorded, in case a thief secretly took a few boxes and escaped, or sneaked in and put something that shouldn't be there.

After all, there are seventy-eight loads of dowry, so there can’t be any mistakes.”

It was simply a lie! The Fourth Prince was almost laughing out of anger. She had married from Jiang Mansion to the Prince's Mansion without even leaving the capital. Even if the team was loose, who could have sneaked in something that shouldn't have been there in such a short time? As for stealing the dowry, it was even more impossible...

However, the next second, Jiang Daiyu, who was originally so weak that she was nauseous, was so anxious that she even lifted her veil and said in shock and anger: "What do you mean by 78 loads of dowry?! Mother clearly prepared 108 loads of dowry for me!"

In the Dali Dynasty, a dowry of one hundred and eight loads was the highest standard. Jiang Daiyu even showed off in front of several good sisters who were not favored at home.

Now there are seventy-eight less lifts. Not only does it fail to reflect her status as the favored daughter of heaven in the family, but it is also so much less than that of the principal wife. It would be strange if she is not anxious!

Thinking of this, Jiang Daiyu immediately grabbed the Fourth Prince's arm and said anxiously: "Your Highness, someone must have stolen my dowry. You must help me!"

The Fourth Prince: "..."

Everyone: "..."

The Fourth Prince wanted to say it was impossible, but seeing the furious Jiang Daiyu who looked like she wanted to go and check the goods herself, he quickly calmed her down: "Don't worry, who dares to hijack the prince's wife's dowry in broad daylight? I think there may be some misunderstanding."

He thought that maybe the Jiang couple had originally promised 108 loads, but finally only gave 78. Although this guess made him a little unhappy, it was much more reliable than having it stolen.

But Jiang Daiyu had confidence in her mother. Her mother loved her so much that there was no way she would neglect her dowry.

The Fourth Prince was so annoyed that he could only whisper, "Even if Young Master Jiang didn't give the dowry, it's possible that Brother Wang counted the wrong number of people. After all, there are so many people carrying the dowry. If someone is not good at math, it is common to make mistakes.

Calm down first, there are so many people watching, don't lose your composure."

After Jiang Daiyujing's reminder from the Fourth Prince, he finally seemed to understand something and immediately glared at Xie Ze.

She said, it must be Jiang Xin!

Everyone along the way must have been bribed by Jiang Xin. She had been disturbed all the way. She was already in a bad mood when she finally arrived at the palace. Xie Ze used the excuse of checking her dowry to try to provoke her and ruin her marriage. It was all the work of Jiang Xin and the virtuous king who was on the same side as Jiang Xin!

"Then Your Highness, please stop him!" Jiang Daiyu was anxious. She had already entered the palace, but her dowry was detained outside the palace. How could she get married? !

However, Xie Ze didn't care about her thoughts, and after Jiang Daiyu's shouting just now, he had even more reason to delay time to allow people to "register" properly.

About half an hour later, Ji Shi had no idea how long he had been delayed. The Fourth Prince was so angry at this guy's unreasonable behavior that he was planning to find someone to go to the palace. Xie Ze then stood up from a dowry box leisurely, looked at Jiang Zhengchu and the other two who had hurried over, and said expressionlessly, "Here I am."

The Fourth Prince frowned upon seeing this, and subconsciously stopped Jiang Daiyu who was about to step forward. He wanted to see what exactly was going on today? !

Jiang Zhengchu didn't even bother to greet the Fourth Prince. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and said anxiously, "What do you mean, Your Highness? Xin'er's matter was my negligence, but you can't bully others like this..."

Before he could finish his words, Xie Ze raised his hand to shut him up, and said calmly: "I will bully you and your family the same way you bullied Ah Xin. It's fair."

Jiang Zhengchu & Fu Xuerong: "..."
