The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

My mother didn't ask me to pay her respects, so it doesn't matter if it's later. Jiang Ruan smiled.

Madam is not in the mood to ask the girl to pay her respects now, she is too busy. Lian Qiao brought hot water, and while serving Jiang Ruan Jing's face, she said, Mei Qingyuan is in trouble.

Jiang Ruan took the handkerchief: How is it now?

Second Young Master was chopped off with a right little finger. Lian Qiao said: When I came back, it was bloody and frightening to death. After a pause, she continued: Now it's spread outside, saying that Second Young Master went to Baihua Lou spends a lot of money, but in fact his pockets are empty. Our Jiang family can't afford that much money for a while, so we only gave five thousand taels. For the sake of the master, the people of Baihualou spared the second young master's life and only chopped up the second young master's life. A little finger.

After cleaning her face, Jiang Ruan returned the handkerchief to Lian Qiao: What else?

Young lady is amazing, Lianqiao said, I don't know how the old madam found out about this, she was furious, and restrained the madam and the second young lady. She was so angry that she fell ill, and now the doctor just finished watching the second young master, and she wants to give the second young master The old lady is taking a pulse.

Third sister is so quick. Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: Is this matter spread in Beijing?

That's natural. Luzhu came in from the outside, heard Jiang Ruan's words, and answered by the way: Now everyone knows the story of the second young master spending a lot of money for a beauty in Baihualou last night, and he even chopped off a finger. Everyone says that the Jiang family is actually very poor. When it came to the last sentence, she looked at Jiang Ruan's expression in a little embarrassment. But Jiang Ruan didn't take her words to heart at all, but asked about other things: How is father now?

The old man is so angry. If the second young master hadn't been lying in bed and lost consciousness, he would have rushed to beat him. It seems that something serious happened.

Jiang Ruan bowed his head and took a sip of the tea that Zisu handed over, the face of Jiang's family was completely lost after Jiang Chao's disturbance last night. For a person like Jiang Quan who pays attention to reputation, it is tantamount to a huge blow. After this incident, it is indispensable to refer to him for the censor's book, which will also be an obstacle to his official career.

Of course, the most important thing was the conflict with the Li family in the capital. Since Jiang Chao won the championship last night after spending a lot of money, he will definitely offend Li Yang. Li Yang is a narrow-minded person, how could he give up so easily?

Let's go on like this, Jiang Ruan looked out the window, Jiang Chao has dominated the name of the first son of the Jiang family for so many years, the world has almost forgotten that the Jiang family still has Jiang Xinzhi. Let her recover this debt on Jiang Xinzhi's behalf. Jiang Chao, is this painful? There is only one step from heaven to hell, but this is just the beginning.

...

In the study, Xia Yan looked at Jiang Quan in panic: Master, you can't lock Chao'er up, why don't you let him go to the Imperial College?

Nizi! Jiang Quan was furious: Listen to what people are talking about my Jiang's family now, go to Baihualou to learn from others and spend a lot of money, my Jiang's family has raised him for nothing for so many years! He has lost his reputation in the imperial examination, and he only knows to drink all day long. You raise him good son!

I know the master is angry and resentful, Xia Yan knelt down, but Chao'er was young and ignorant, and no one made a mistake. Chao'er was also my son who was born in October of my pregnancy. When I was young, Chao'er was called a bastard. Master, have you forgotten that everything Chao'er did was to win glory for the Jiang family. This time, he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart when he failed this time, so he made a big mistake. Now he has been punished, hasn't he? Chao'er Already lost a finger, I beg the master to take pity on him.

Jiang Quan looked at Xia Yan who was kneeling on the ground, and took a deep breath. This is his beloved woman, but he made her wait for several years before becoming his wife. Jiang Chao was born as a bastard, no matter how much he compensated, it would not help.

Xia Yan said again: Master, don't you even want your only son?

Jiang Quan's heart skipped a beat. Jiang Xinzhi's life and death were unknown six years ago, and he had the right to pretend that he didn't have this son. Xia Yan is right, Jiang Chao is now his only son. He sat down in front of the desk and said in a dejected tone: I am doing this for Chao'er's sake. Last night, he had a grudge with the son of Prime Minister Li's house. If he does not avoid the limelight, I am afraid Li Yang will not easily let him go.

Xia Yan was taken aback: Prime Minister Li, who is Li Yang? How could Chao'er have a grudge against them?

Jiang Quan sighed and told Xia Yan the ins and outs of the matter. There is one more thing he didn't tell Xia Yan, that Li Dong is someone close to the Eighth Prince, and now he wants to curry favor with the Eighth Prince, but he provoked Li Dong for no reason. him. Besides, Li Dong has quite a lot of influence in the court, so it is not a good thing after all.

Xia Yan listened to Jiang Quan's words, but pondered: Master, you say that, do you not want to quarrel with the Li family?

Climbing to the Li family is a great thing to do with the Jiang family, Jiang Quan shook his head, I wanted to find a chance to get on the line, but I didn't want to be like Chao'er now, so I ended up having a grudge.

Xia Yan was silent for a while, a thought emerged in her mind. She said: Master, what is the most stable relationship?

Jiang Quan looked at her. Xia Yan said: What if we can marry the Li family?

Li'er is too flamboyant, and Dan'er is too young. Jiang Quan frowned: Don't think wildly.

Xia Yan shook his head: Li'er and Dan'er are concubine daughters after all, and their identities don't match, so they can't be regular wives.

Could it be that you want Susu? Jiang Quan frowned: Where is the Li family, father-son-wife incidents happen from time to time. Even if I wanted to please the Li family, I wouldn't send Susu into such a pit of fire.

Master, what are you talking about? Xia Yan walked a few steps towards Jiang Quan, leaned against him, and gently pressed his shoulders with a pair of jade hands: Susu is also my flesh and blood, how could I miss her so much? I It means Ruan'er. Seeing Jiang Quan's stunned look, she continued: Ruan'er has a calm temperament. Although I am also worried, isn't there a young son in the Li family? That young son is very smart. If I fell in love with Ruan'er, and her identities match, isn't it a relationship? In this way, if we make another apology, Li Dong will not be in a difficult situation again.

Hearing this, Jiang Quan suddenly realized: I actually forgot about Li An. You are right, then Li An has a bright future. If Ruan'er marries him, the Jiang family will be able to help. However, he hesitated Said: Such a good marriage, why don't you consider it for Susu?

Ruan'er's life is bitter, Xia Yan said softly, Susu has me to worry about her, but Ruan'er is a child without a mother. They are both daughters of Jiang's family. Is it possible that I will deliberately harm her? Besides, I still want to Stay Susu for a few more years, there is no rush to get married, so take your time.

Looking at the smile on Xia Yan's face, Jiang Quan finally eased his expression, and hugged her in his arms: I know you are a generalist, and it is my good fortune to marry you in this life. Don't worry, I will definitely do it for you. If Su Su finds a perfect marriage, she will not be wronged in this life.
