Clear water and jade in the Red Chamber
Chapter 52
Baochai sent Yinger to help the secretary, while she sat down and chatted: "Did the third sister ever go to the old lady to congratulate her?"
"I've been there, and the old lady is so happy. After all, she is the Jia family's in-laws. It is the Jia family's honor to be the head of the eight aunts!" Tan Chun poured tea and gave it to him.
"Miss Lin is really lucky." Baochai took the tea bowl and took a sip, "The Lin family was originally a foreign official, but unexpectedly they turned into the Duke's mansion."
"Sister Lin will not go south again when she comes back this time!" Baoyu was very unhappy when he learned that the Lin family had moved to the capital.
"Even if you move here, you still have to live in Beiguo Mansion, and you won't see each other every day." Baochai smiled slightly.
"Oh, that's not good! The Lin family doesn't have any sisters, sister Lin must be lonely! She should be taken to live in this mansion, and we'll be stubborn together all day, how wonderful it would be!" Baoyu really looked forward to a day with Daiyu. Get along every day.
"I'm afraid that sister Lin has changed her identity and is different from the past. How can she come just as soon as she says it!" Baochai looked at Tanchun and joked, "Only this idiot is thinking for nothing!"
"No, my sister is not that kind of person." Baoyu didn't believe it at all, and said: "My sister is the most soft-hearted. When the time comes, the old ancestor will pick him up, and he will definitely come!"
"Then I'll just watch!" Baochai pulled Tanchun and smiled: "If you don't come, Brother Bao, don't cry!"
Baoyu made a face at the two, and went to play with spices and rouge on his own.
"This idiot, you say he has no intentions, but he has the most intentions, and you say he has intentions, but he has no intentions." Baochai sighed, "My uncle is going to marry his concubine grandma, and he doesn't know how to come to accompany my aunt more often."
"I also told him about it, but the second elder brother only said that there are many people to be lively, what do you think he thinks!" Tanchun said helplessly: "Is this the case for all men's families?"
"Or how can he say that he has intentions but no intentions!" Baochai said, glancing at Baoyu over there, and said.
"No matter what concubine grandma, Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhou are old people in the house. It is very clear who is far and who is near. Madam knows it well when she thinks about it." Tanchun said: "Sister Bao needs to comfort Madam more!"
Baochai pursed her lips and smiled: "That's right, you actually wanted to go with me!"
"At the beginning of spring, things happened one after another, and I think there will be many things this year." Seeing that Baochai agreed, Tanchun felt relieved.
"After all, it's something that my daughter's family can't control. The third sister doesn't need to think too much. There is a saying that the boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge." Baochai said: "It's better than anything else for sisters to play together."
She very much hoped that Jia's family could find a way to get Daiyu here, as long as she lived in Jia's house, she would be unaware of any tricks she did, and it would be even better if she could ruin her reputation, so as to vent her hatred !Even though Li Yang was far away in the Grand Master's Mansion, he still couldn't think of how to take revenge.
Baochai chatted with Tanchun for a while, and then went to Jiamu's place with Baoyu to say hello.
Before going to Beijing, Lin Ruhai and Mo Xiao interrogated Aunt Qi for the last time.
The dungeon of the Yanyun Division is dark and damp. Aunt Qi has been imprisoned here since she was tortured that day.The previous jailers have all been removed, and all the guards in the past few days are black armored guards.
"Bring it out!" Black dragon robe, copper mask, Shui Rong sat outside the prison door, with Lin Ruhai next to him.
"Yes!" Two guards in armor opened the cell door, dragged out Mammy Qi who had lost her arm, and asked her to kneel and lean against the torture bench.
That day, she was relying on a little luck, intending to get away with it, but Shui Rong's hands were really vicious. The crocodile skin was hung with a whip with upside-down thorns, which was as thick as an arm. After three whips, the whole person passed out. The cold salt water poured directly into her body and she had to wake up, the bone-piercing pain made her want to die quickly.Unexpectedly, the black armored guards have all been trained, and their whips are ruthless and accurate, but they are never fatal. No matter whether they are facing men or women, they are not lenient at all.
"Nurse Qi, that day you confessed that Laiwang, a servant from Jia's family, contacted you secretly and asked you to dedicate the phoenix hairpin to Mrs. Lin's family. The matter is urgent, so I went to investigate first, so I can keep you for a while." Day." Under the mask, the voice was cold and gloomy, without a trace of emotion.
"My lord, this slave is telling the truth, I dare not deceive you..." Mother Qi begged bitterly, "This slave doesn't know anything, I don't know anything!"
"Laiwang is dead, how can I trust you?" Shui Rong sneered and said, "What a death without proof!"
"Dead? Impossible! Impossible! He..." Qi Nanny shouted eagerly.
"Let's talk about it, I just didn't have time to ask more questions that day, and I think there will be more secrets with a few more whips." Shui Rong leaned forward with a good temper, but it was a pity that Nanny Qi couldn't see his face. The mask had scared her out of her wits.

"My lord, since I came to Suzhou with my wife at the age of 16, my servant has only thought of the Lin family, and I dare not make a mistake in serving my wife..." Qi Momo burst into tears: "This servant really doesn't know!"
"Put on the stick." Shui Rong sat up straight, opened his mouth calmly, and interrupted those meaningless words.
The rattling iron clamp was put on Mammy Qi's ankle, and two strong guards pulled it left and right, and howling like a pig slaughtered echoed in the dungeon, piercing and ear-piercing.Nanny Qi's arm was already crippled, and now her ankle bone seemed to have been cut by a knife. The pain caused her to writhe uncontrollably, but she couldn't break free.
"Finish..." Shui Rong took the tea bowl, brushed off the floating leaves, moistened his throat, and said to Lin Ruhai with a smile, "This mask is very comfortable, and I will reward the craftsmen in the palace someday, even drinking tea is fine. .”
"My lord... what you said is very true!" Lin Ruhai was taken aback for a moment, and immediately responded.To be honest, he even doubted that Mo Xiao, who often pestered his daughter to play tricks, was really the Prince of Beijing in front of him?Although he already knew the answer, it was just that in his memory, the King of Beijing Jing had always been so ruthless and merciless, and everyone in the government and the public knew it, but that Mo Xiao...is he really alone?
"My lord, don't, my lord, spare me, I say! I say!" Mother Qi wanted to beg for mercy from the very beginning, but the power of the stick was beyond her imagination, she couldn't help herself, she couldn't utter a word because of the pain.Just howling and rolling.At this time, the two guards' hands were a little lighter, and she screamed and begged for mercy, but her ankle was already blurred with blood.
Lin Ruhai didn't say a word, but hated this slave so much, if the prince hadn't stepped forward, he would have personally dealt with it today.
"Mao Chi Dayin is the only one who escaped from the king's torture order." Shui Rong smiled and said, "I'm making an exception once, because it's his fate to be in a hurry to save Mrs. Lin. But today the king has a lot of free time. If you don't like it, just tell them to try another look."
"No, no!" Nanny Qi lay on the ground, kowtowed her head to the ground, and begged for mercy in pain: "Your Majesty, please spare this servant, the servant will say it!"
"En." Shui Rong waved her hand, and the two guards lifted her upper body and threw her aside.
"My lord..." When she pulled her body up, she moved her ankle, and Nanny Qi could hardly breathe, she calmed down after moving, and cried, "Don't dare to lie to my lord, this servant is the maid of the old lady, and the wife is married , the old lady asked me to follow, and told her that she would accept me as an aunt. But for several years, the master only favored his wife, not to mention that the dowry girl did not accept the house, even the original aunt would stay. I can’t live with you, master.” Mother Qi said in shame, and looked at Lin Ruhai with a little fear: “When the eldest girl was one year old, Laiwang came to Suzhou suddenly. Dominating the master and letting the slaves take the opportunity to mix up their identities..."
"What way?" Lin Ruhai stared, this dead woman actually had her own idea!What a shame!
"In a few days, he brought a phoenix hairpin, saying that it was cursed, and he would not be favored again..." Mother Qi sobbed, regretting that she had been dazzled by jealousy for a while, and she believed this Absurd words, made a big mistake. "Who knows that after wearing it a few times, my wife fell ill and never recovered..."
"Bitch!" Lin Ruhai didn't expect that he would be the reason why Jia Min was murdered. It was this reason that led the wolves into the mansion. He was so furious that he went up to kick her in the chest.Mammy Qi spurted blood immediately, and she did not know how many ribs were broken.
"Whose servant is Laiwang?"
"At first I followed Master Zhu, but I didn't know about it later..." Nanny Qi replied vaguely with blood gushing from her mouth.It was too late for her to regret it, she only looked at the master's love for his wife back then, which made her jealous eyes burn.But he should have thought that if something happened, the first person who couldn't spare him would be the master.
"Another dead person." Shui Rong sneered and said, "Then old lady Jia gave you to Mrs. Lin back then, did she have other arrangements?"
"..." Seeing that the prince dug deeper and deeper, Mother Qi dared not speak.
"Say!" Lin Ruhai yelled angrily, and Mammy Qi was so frightened that she was looking at the instruments of torture that were thrown aside, so she might as well just say all of them, otherwise her skin would be peeled off.
"I said!" Mother Qi cried: "The old lady said that she was afraid that the master would treat the wife badly, so she asked the servant to write a letter every month, sending back a detailed description of the Lin family's food and clothing, and the wife's basic necessities of life. I wrote to my wife to ask my wife to hire slaves to serve the master. But after so many years, I couldn’t get it done. The slaves were jealous and resentful, so they lost their heads for a while and took the method of Laiwang..."
Shui Rong understood that there was no point in continuing, so he got up and wanted to leave, saying: "I have nothing to ask, since it involves Master Lin, you can handle it yourself!" Then he left the cell with his hands behind his back.
"Master! Master, I was wrong, Master, Master, I will never dare again..." Mammy Qi couldn't move her arms and legs, and she hid on the ground in a panic, crying out of fear.
"I've been there, and the old lady is so happy. After all, she is the Jia family's in-laws. It is the Jia family's honor to be the head of the eight aunts!" Tan Chun poured tea and gave it to him.
"Miss Lin is really lucky." Baochai took the tea bowl and took a sip, "The Lin family was originally a foreign official, but unexpectedly they turned into the Duke's mansion."
"Sister Lin will not go south again when she comes back this time!" Baoyu was very unhappy when he learned that the Lin family had moved to the capital.
"Even if you move here, you still have to live in Beiguo Mansion, and you won't see each other every day." Baochai smiled slightly.
"Oh, that's not good! The Lin family doesn't have any sisters, sister Lin must be lonely! She should be taken to live in this mansion, and we'll be stubborn together all day, how wonderful it would be!" Baoyu really looked forward to a day with Daiyu. Get along every day.
