[Red Mansion] Ronghua Road of Mrs. Hou's Mansion

He had just been promoted to the capital, and it was the first time he entered the palace to attend a palace banquet. He was excited because he saw the sky, and he didn't expect to encounter such an innocent disaster.

He likes beauties. For him, beauties are like clothes, you just throw them away after wearing them, so as to keep them fresh.But compared to these, he prefers the beauty to be controlled by him, like the beauty to cry in his hands, struggling to survive by his side.He likes to see beauties crying and begging for mercy, but at this time, he will get tired of this feeling, and those beauties can naturally be killed and thrown away.Anyway, he bought it, like an object, and he didn't feel guilty in his heart.

But compared to lowly girls, he prefers noble girls. Whenever he sees the dignified and noble appearance of those ladies, he will have the idea of ​​snatching them into his hands to torture and insult.But he also knew that according to his status, he would not be able to marry those noble girls, but he couldn't really snatch them over, so he could only try his best to suppress the evil fire in his heart, but since then he tortured the maids, beat them A dead maid is more common.

When attending the palace banquet, beautiful and famous Shuyuan gathered, he had no choice but to look at them greedily, he naturally imagined that the incomparably noble princess would be the object of his torment, just thinking about it would make him feel exciting and excited.Unexpectedly, when he woke up from the dream, his dream came true, and he really married the princess.But when he learned the truth of the matter, he was extremely disappointed, followed by boundless anger.A princess who was demoted to a commoner was worthy of him?

He was unwilling to marry a princess who was rejected by the emperor, but this was a marriage bestowed by the emperor, and he could not resist the order, so he could only suppress the anger in his heart and agree.Anyway, she used to be a princess, so it's better than a bought girl, something is better than nothing.

Thinking of this, he came to the bride with a distorted smile and lifted the red hijab all at once.

The sudden light made the sixth princess feel dazzling, she got used to the light, and gradually saw the person in front of her, with strong disgust and resentment burst out in her eyes.

How can this person come from an ordinary background, behave vulgarly, and look vulgar, compared to Jiang Chaoan?Not to mention being a husband and wife, just looking at him feels extremely disgusting.

Sun Shaozu was quite satisfied with the sixth princess's delicate and beautiful appearance, so he stretched out his hand to pinch her chin and stared at her.Bringing a glass of wine to her lips, he ordered: "Drink it."

The sixth princess had a cold expression and struggled to hide.

But how could her strength be comparable to that of a man, her arms were tightly bound by Sun Shaozu, and she couldn't move.

Sun Shaozu laughed, pried open her teeth with a wine glass and poured the wine in.

The sixth princess coughed violently, tears flowed out, and half of the wine was spilled on the wedding dress.

Sun Shaozu had no heart to pity her, so he pinched her shoulder tightly and wanted to tear her clothes.The sixth princess didn't know where the strength came from, and pushed him away all at once.

"Go away, don't come near me!"

Sun Shaozu got up from the ground, brushed the dust off his clothes, and said with a sneer, "We are already husband and wife, why are you pretending to be a chaste woman? You are my man now, you'd better be obedient and don't even try to resist I."

The sixth princess stood up and threw the wine glass over, "Are you worthy of this princess?"

Sun Shaozu dodged the flying wine glass and approached her step by step, "Princess? Are you still awake from your dream? You have to wake up. You have been demoted to a commoner and have nothing. You can only rely on me if you want to survive. Do you think you are noble?"

The sixth princess stepped back step by step, trying to stay calm, "Don't come here!"

She wandered around in panic, and suddenly saw the whip hanging on the wall, and her fear grew even stronger.It seemed that he remembered the nightmare of that day and the traces on his body.

Sun Shaozu had already seen through her strong outside but strong in the middle, and walked over with big strides, about to hug her up.

The anger in Princess Six's eyes condensed into ice, and the hand leaning against the wall stretched into the sleeve.

Sun Shaozu felt that the more the sixth princess resisted, the more interested he was, just like a wolf eager to eat its prey.As soon as his hand touched her clothes, there was a sharp pain in his arm. He grinned in pain, slapped the sixth princess, and said viciously: "Bitch, how dare you hurt me?"

The force of this slap was so great that the sixth princess staggered and was about to fall, but fortunately she held the table beside her in time, and managed to stand still.

She didn't care about wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, the hatred in her eyes became more intense, and she put the dagger between the two of them, "If you dare to come here again, don't blame me for being rude, at worst, you will die!"

A cruel smile appeared on Sun Shaozu's lips, and he stared at her.Shaoqing, his eyes suddenly became fierce, and while she was not paying attention, he snatched the dagger and threw it on the ground.

"Hmph, it's not that easy to want to die. If I want to die, I should die after I get tired of playing."

Then, reach out and hug her.

She only felt that every breath of Sun Shaozu made her feel sick, so she subconsciously avoided him, and Sun Shaozu grabbed her arm at once.She struggled so hard that her feet slipped and she accidentally fell on the table. The teacups, cups, saucers and candlesticks on the table fell to the ground with a clatter, and she also fell down.

Only a muffled sound was heard, and the screaming stopped abruptly.

The sixth princess stared wide-eyed, looking at Sun Shaozu's direction, her body remained motionless.

Sun Shaozu pinched his waist, raised his foot and kicked, "Hey, get up quickly, don't pretend to be dead."

What responded to him was the wind outside the door.

Sun Shaozu frowned and kicked again, "Get up, did you hear me?"

Still no response.

He felt a little uneasy in his heart, hesitated for a while, leaned over and stretched out his fingers to test her breath, his breathing stopped suddenly, and he stared at those eyes in disbelief.Those eyes were also looking at him, making him feel creepy.

She's dead, she's dead...

Sun Shaozu took a step back subconsciously, but he stepped on a broken cup and saucer, and there was a crisp sound under his feet, which was particularly loud in this quiet new house, like a woman moaning in pain.

He froze in place for a while, then ran out quickly, and when he opened the door, he collided with the maid guarding the door.He didn't have time to scold the servant girl, so he just said: "Madam is tired, go to bed first, don't bother her."

After saying that, she pushed the person away and rushed out of the yard, as if a ghost was chasing her.

The servant girl watched him flee in a hurry, with a weird smile on her face, then opened the door and went in.

When she saw the corpse on the ground, there was nothing unusual on her face, she first touched the right side of Princess Six's neck, and then helped her up.

The next day, the sky was covered with faint starlight, and the flowers and plants were covered with clear and cold dewdrops, and the entire capital fell into silence.However, before the sky was completely bright, many people were woken up by the sound of drums beating from the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion.

Early in the morning, the gate of the Yamen in Shuntian Mansion became lively like a pot exploded. Many people came here early in the morning to find out what happened.

Soon, everyone knew a shocking thing: the bride who just married into Sun's family yesterday was killed, and the murderer turned out to be the groom!

The person who complained was the maid of the sixth princess. She said that she saw the sixth princess killed by Sun Shaozu with her own eyes.

Although the sixth princess has been rejected by the emperor and demoted to a commoner, this marriage was bestowed by the emperor.Sun Shaozu killed His Majesty's imperial wife on his wedding night. Did he not pay attention to the emperor and openly challenge the majesty of the royal family?

Shuntian Fu Yin was woken up before dawn, now that he heard about this incident, he felt dizzy.This case cannot be judged casually, so he quickly cleaned up and went to the palace to face the saint.

As soon as the emperor left the court, he heard from Eunuch Kang that Shuntian Fu Yin had been waiting for a long time, and he seemed to be in a hurry.The emperor's eyelids twitched and asked someone to take Shun Tian Fu Yin to the imperial study.

The emperor glanced at the governor of Shuntian, and asked: "What happened, Pei Qing was in such a hurry to enter the palace to see me?"

Mr. Pei is more nervous than killing someone, "Return to Your Majesty, it is the Sixth Princess who died..."

The emperor's face froze, "What did you say?"

"The sixth princess is dead." Mr. Pei repeated again.

This time the emperor confirmed that he heard correctly, and asked calmly, "What's going on?"

Mr. Pei briefly explained what happened.

The emperor was furious, "Did Sun Shaozu kill the sixth princess?"

"That's what the maid who beat the drum said."

The emperor frowned, picked up the paperweight at hand and threw it over, "What a Sun family, what a Sun Shaozu!"

The paperweight flew over to wipe Mr. Pei's face, fell to the ground, and split a hole in an instant.

Mr. Pei, who was about to lose his head, narrowly escaped death, his body trembled, and said: "Your Majesty, calm down."

The emperor stood up, "Sun Shaozu acted so boldly, how can I appease my anger?"

It's not how the emperor loves the sixth princess. The reason why he is angry is because he feels that Sun Shaozu is provoking his imperial prestige.Although the sixth princess was demoted to a commoner, she was his daughter after all. Sun Shaozu dared to kill his imperial wife, didn't he put him in the eyes of the emperor?

It's just a humble official, so unscrupulous.

"Be sure to find out the truth and bring the murderer to justice." The emperor looked at Mr. Pei, "Does Pei Qing understand?"

Master Pei hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty."

With the emperor's attention, Mr. Pei handled the case very neatly.When he returned to the Yamen, he sent someone to arrest Sun Shaozu and confront the maid.At the beginning, Sun Shaozu refused to plead guilty, so Mr. Pei ordered people to search the Sun's house, and searched every corner of the Sun's house one by one, wishing to turn over the land.Sure enough, the body of the sixth princess was found in a dry well in Huangyuan.Not only that, dozens of female corpses were also found under the Sun family's flower garden.

Some have only a skeleton left because of the long time, and some are still young and can still see the appearance of the clothes.But these people have a common feature, that is, they all have dense wounds from being whipped, and they are obviously tortured to death.

Some of these people were servant girls bought by the Sun family, and some were girls from good families who were snatched directly by Sun Shaozu after he took a fancy to them.Master Pei sent someone to arrest Sun Shaozu's entourage, interrogated them, and all the entourage confessed.

This case shocked the entire capital. No one could have imagined that there would be such a twisted mentality in the world, and the cruel methods were rare in ancient times.Many families who lost their daughters went to the yamen to cry and look for their daughters.

Sun Shaozu killed innocent people and killed the wife His Majesty bestowed on him. The Sun family did not report the knowledge and allowed Sun Shaozu to do anything wrong. They should be punished with the same crime.

Soon, the case was closed, Sun Shaozu was sentenced to beheaded, the Sun family was ransacked, and the rest were all exiled.When the people heard this result, they all clapped their hands and cheered.

The Sun family just disappeared.As for who is the happiest, it must be Jia She, because it means that the 5000 taels owed to the Sun family does not have to be repaid, and he does not have to worry too much about selling his daughter.

After the court was over that day, Gu Xingchi was in a hurry to go back to see Sister Feng and Sister Qiao, when he heard someone calling him from behind, "Master Hou, please stay."

Gu Xingchi turned his head and found that it was Jiang Chaoan, who was dressed in an official uniform and looked imposing, chasing him.

"Can Lord Hou take a step to speak?"

Gu Xingchi looked at the courtiers around him and nodded.

When the two arrived in a deserted place, Jiang Chaoan asked in a low voice, "You guys did that?"

Gu Xingchi was startled, and then said with a half-smile: "I don't understand Jiang Shizi's words. Don't you know who the sixth princess is hurting? Even if you want to kill the grass, it should be your responsibility."

According to Gu Xingchi, he didn't do it?Jiang Chaoan said: "I was also surprised when it happened, I thought it was you who did it."

Gu Xingchi smiled and said, "Shizi Jiang misunderstood." After saying that, he left.

Jiang Chaoan looked at his back, suspicious in his heart, who did this?

"It's the queen." Sister Feng and Gu Xingchi said in unison.

Sister Feng murmured: "After all, the queen is worried about the sixth princess."

Gu Xingchi laughed, "She is a cruel person. To her, the Sixth Princess is useless. If she doesn't get rid of it, she will be a trouble after all. Instead of this, it's better to strike while the iron is hot to avoid future troubles."

Sister Feng smiled, with a sad expression on her face, "Speaking of which, the sixth princess is also a poor person. She thinks that the queen loves her so much, but she is actually just a pawn. The reason why the queen allowed her to develop a domineering temperament is because It’s just to use her to cause trouble for some people. The reason why you revealed your life experience to her is to let her deal with us, but it’s a pity that she is too stupid. Later, seeing the sixth princess’s defeat, the queen was afraid that the sixth princess would tell your life experience. Your Majesty will suspect her, so he borrowed a knife to kill someone. However, by getting rid of the Sun family, the Queen has indirectly done a good deed."

In this way, Yingchun completely avoided the tragedy of marrying Sun Shaozu.But if Yingchun wants to live a good life, she should change her cowardly temperament, otherwise, if she meets a second Zhongshan wolf, no one will be able to help her.

Sister Feng had a flash of inspiration, "Zhaohua, do you know any men?"

Gu Xingchi stopped the hand that was stroking her hair, showing dissatisfaction.He was here, and his wife actually asked him about other men.

Gu Xingchi said casually, "Let's listen."

Sister Feng thought for a while, "It's best to be a man with a wealthy family, a simple population, good conduct, and a good appearance. Think about it, do you know anyone?"

Gu Xingchi looked at her with an 'indescribable' gaze, "Recently, you like being a matchmaker?"

Sister Feng said angrily: "I'm just asking casually, it's fine if you don't want to help."

Gu Xingchi coaxed: "Is there any reason for me not to agree to what you asked me to do, but I hope you think about me more and don't waste your thoughts on other people."

Sister Feng glanced at him, and she suddenly became charming, "Saving people to the end, I just want to do a good deed. You don't know, the second girl of Rongguo Mansion is honest and honest, but she is cowardly and cowardly. Her father owed the Sun family 5000 taels of silver. Knowing Sun Shaozu's virtues, he still wanted to marry Yingchun over. If the Sun family hadn't been ransacked, he might have sent Yingchun over to be a concubine. I think, instead of watching Yingchun being raped by her father Selling it is better than helping her find a good family, at least she can live a stable life."

Gu Xingchi saw her gentle and careless appearance, his heart moved, and he wrapped his fingers around her, "Well, since you are willing to help this favor, I will pay attention to it. However, it is very important for you to help her like this. okay?"

He felt that Sister Feng didn't have a deep relationship with the Jia family. There were several girls in the Jia family, so why did she care about Yingchun alone?

Sister Feng smiled and said: "When I was not out of the cabinet, I often went to Rongguo Mansion to chat and have fun with my sisters."

"Often?" Gu Xingchi grasped the point, "Why do you often go to Rongguo Mansion?"

Sister Feng: "..."

Meeting his deep eyes, she suddenly understood, and patted him, "What are you thinking again?"

Gu Xingchi said slowly, "Is it because the second girl from the Jia family almost became your sister-in-law, so you care so much about her?"

Sister Feng was dumbfounded.

I was jealous a few years ago, why do I remember it now?

Sister Feng rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily: "Can't you treat me as a kind-hearted man?"

Gu Xingchi lowered his head, "Oh." After a pause, he sighed faintly, "I heard that you have known each other since childhood, and you are childhood sweethearts."

Gu Xingchi was waiting for her to come and coax him, but after a while, he heard Qiaojie's cry.Sister Feng hurried over to pick up Sister Qiao and coaxed her softly, and then asked someone to call the nanny.

Gu Xingchi looked up at the roof with a rather melancholy expression.

Tonight, Gu Zhaoyu is alone in the empty room again.

On the day he came back from the emperor's birthday banquet, the prince spent most of his time at the crown princess's place, as if he had made up his mind to let the crown princess give birth to his eldest son as soon as possible.This time the crown prince was uncommonly firm, even if Gu Zhaoyu resorted to all means, the crown prince would not waver, he just comforted her and continued to look for the crown princess.

Gu Zhaoyu was anxious.The prince wanted the princess to give birth to a son, but she didn't want to.She always thought that she was more favored than the Crown Princess and would give birth to a son earlier than the Crown Princess, but she never thought that the Crown Prince would change his mind.What should the princess do if she gave birth to a son first?

She was depressed and went back home after a few days.

As soon as Gu Zhaoyu entered Biqiu Courtyard, he saw Feng's gloomy face interrogating the maid who was kneeling on the ground.

"Mother, who made you angry again?" Gu Zhaoyu walked into the room quickly.

Feng Shi waved his hand and said impatiently: "Go down."

The maid ran out with her head down.

Feng rubbed his forehead, "Why are you back?"

Gu Zhaoyu originally wanted to complain, but seeing that Feng Shi was also frowning, he changed his words temporarily.

"Long time no see mother, I miss you."

Feng patted her hand, wrinkles appeared at the end of her eyes, "My daughter is still caring and sensible, unlike that careless bitch who always makes me angry."

Gu Chaoyu said: "Aunt You is relying on her father's favor to show you face again?"

Feng snorted coldly, "She dares? Don't even look at who my daughter is."

"Then why is mother so angry?"

Feng patted the table, "That little bitch is pregnant again!"

Gu Zhaoyu paused while holding the tea, raised his eyes and said, "As long as my father stays with her, is it normal to be pregnant?"

Feng sighed: "My son, you don't know the inside story, she shouldn't be pregnant."

Gu Zhaoyu raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Why did mother say that?"

"It's okay to tell you." Feng Shi moved closer to her and said something in a low voice.

"What, baby-killing medicine?" Gu Zhaoyu looked at Feng Shi in disbelief, and lowered his voice, "How could you do this? If they are found out, father and grandmother will definitely be furious."

"So what?" Feng said disapprovingly, "He can pamper those sluts, so can't I use some means to keep my position? Is it possible that I want to see the second room have more sons and daughters for me? Add to the block, or share your brother's property?"

Feng's words are not unreasonable, but Gu Zhaoyu really can't believe that Feng's heart is so cruel.

"Perhaps Aunt You was pregnant before Father took the medicine."

"She is really lucky." Feng said disdainfully, "I don't even look at how much I weigh, whether I am worthy of giving birth to the master's flesh and blood."

Gu Chaoyu said: "What does mother plan to do?"

Feng sneered and said: "Having learned from the previous few times, your father valued Aunt You's birth very much. Hearing that Aunt You was pregnant, she seemed to be jumping up for joy, and even hired an experienced woman to take care of her Xikuayuan has stepped up its vigilance, for fear that I will harm her. Does your father think that he will be safe by doing this, as long as I don't give up, Aunt You will never give birth to this child. "

Gu Zhaoyu knew that she couldn't persuade Feng Shi to give up, so she could only remind her to be more secretive and not leave any openings.

Feng Shi said: "Okay, it's hard for you to go back to your mother's house once, don't worry about this bitch. Let me ask you, do you have any good news?"

Gu Zhaoyu immediately understood what Feng said, and blushed slightly, "Mother, what are you talking about, I haven't been married to the prince for long."

Feng smiled and said: "What's so embarrassing about this? If you want to compete with the Crown Princess, the most important thing is your son. To put it bluntly, if you give birth to the child first, and the Crown Princess will give birth later What an accident, your future wealth and honor will be inexhaustible."

Looking at Feng Ruo's meaningful eyes, Gu Zhaoyu thought of something.The reason why she was willing to be the prince's concubine was not for the position of a mere third-rank concubine.Now the crown prince is eager to let the crown princess give birth to a son, she must hurry up.

The autumn wind is rustling, the frost is heavy and the dew is heavy, the bleak moonlight is falling, and there are only a few stars scattered around, making the autumn night even more desolate.A big tree outside the window is waving its branches, only a few scattered leaves are hanging on it, trembling by the wind.

Liu Ying closed the window tightly to prevent any wind from leaking in.She turned on the charcoal fire, and said to Second Sister You: "Auntie, it's cold in the night, get some rest, you are pregnant with the young master, so don't be tired, otherwise the second master will feel distressed."

Anxiety flashed across the eyes of Second Sister You, she went to the bed and sat down, "I see. I just happen to be tired and want to rest, so you can go down too."

Liuying supported Second Sister You to lie down, and said with a smile, "Young maidservant will go down now."

As soon as Liuying left, Second Sister You breathed a sigh of relief, got up and opened the window.

A gust of cold wind hit, and a man jumped in from the window, and quickly closed the window.

He hugged Second Sister You, rubbed his lips against her neck, and breathed hot breath in her ears, his breathing was unsteady. "Second sister, I miss you so much, do you miss me?"

Second Sister You was tightly bound, her face became more and more embarrassing, she struggled and said: "Did the Fourth Young Master come to me because he was drunk again today?"

Gu Yanwen hugged her and did not let go, smelling the fragrance of her body, "I really miss you, I came here to see you at the risk."

"I'm the second master's aunt, you come here often, what if someone finds out?"

Gu Yanwen smiled and said, "Don't worry, it won't happen." As he said that, he groped around her body with his hands.

Second Sister You became more and more embarrassed, "Fourth Young Master, I am pregnant."

Gu Yanwen sobered up quite a bit, let go of her, and stared at her lower abdomen, "Whose child is it?"
