Every family member ignored Xiaoliu because they knew from the beginning that she was destined to be abandoned by the family. As for people of Xiaoliu's generation, they were even more reluctant to contact Xiaoliu because they felt that they were one step above Xiaoliu.
Master Xu naturally did not admit that this was his fault. He had to bend down for the sake of the court. He had been working very hard and had to use the life of a granddaughter as a sign of submission, otherwise the enemy would attack him even more unscrupulously.
Of course, he also knew that even if his granddaughter grew up and became a member of the enemy's family, he would not be allowed to spare the other party, and the enemy would not spare him either. He and the enemy would end up in a life-and-death situation, and there was no second way.
He has never cared much about his granddaughter. Sooner or later, a girl will get married, and he doesn't care at all. Not to mention in-laws. In many cases, in-laws are more ruthless, let alone a concubine. He doesn't care even more. But now
I know that some women are not ordinary women.
Now he wants to find out what happened, what went wrong, and why a five-year-old child wanted to jump into the river? "Tell me about the situation at that time." Mr. Xu looked at Aunt Tang.
.
Kneeling on the ground, Nanny Tang tried hard to recall the whole process, starting from the beginning, "That day, the young lady received a message saying that Miss Yunfei wanted to meet the sixth lady in the temple, so the young lady sent someone to tell the sixth lady.
The lady's men asked them to prepare themselves.
Because I had to go to the temple to offer incense the next day, I had to get up early in the morning, and everyone in Miss Six's yard also got up early. But after dinner, I don't know why the people who served Miss Six all had diarrhea, and they couldn't take care of Miss Six at all.
Miss.
When the young lady found out, she asked her slave to take care of Miss Six first, and she took Miss Six into the car. There was nothing along the way. Miss Six remained silent and didn't ask her to do anything. She just sat there.
Later, after leaving the city, Miss Six once got up to look at the scenery outside. After being stopped by the slave, she sat back down again. When the carriage reached the bridge, Miss Six stood up suddenly. The slave didn't know what happened at that time.
What happened was that when she realized her legs were numb, Miss Six opened the car curtain and went out.
Master Xu looked at Nanny Tang when he heard this. The driver fell down without knowing what happened after returning home. Later, a doctor took a look at him and said he was in very bad health and might not live long.
.
This is Ling Xiao's doing. As a modern soul, there are not many class boundaries. After experiencing several ancient worlds, she knows the nature of the Xu family very well. As a member of the officials and scholar-bureaucrats, she does not care about the lives of slaves.
, in many cases slaves are not as valuable as cattle and horses.
It is definitely possible that she will involve other people after she escapes. As a confidant of the eldest young lady, Aunt Tang may escape, but the coachman is a slave at the lowest level. It doesn't matter if one is missing, but if one is bad, he may be silenced.
After all, dead people cannot speak. After death, others will not know that the sixth daughter of the family jumped into the river. This is to prevent the scandal from breaking out and silence, which the Xu family can definitely do.
Therefore, Ling Xiao placed an invisible talisman on the coachman's body, causing him to fall down and be unable to speak after returning. He had no chance to talk to others at all, thus giving him a chance to survive.
After the Xu family came back, they called the coachman and found out that the man suddenly fell ill and was unable to speak and could not reply at all. Under such circumstances, the Xu family naturally could not continue to ask questions.
After learning about the situation, Mr. Xu decided to send the coachman and his family to a remote village and told them not to return to the capital in the future. Although the family looked like they were being kicked out of the Xu family, the coachman was allowed to live.
The coachman and his family didn't know what was going on at first. They were working hard, so why did they leave immediately when asked to leave? Although they didn't know what was going on, they naturally chose to leave after their master ordered them.
In addition, the people in the mansion who were originally serving Miss Six were also sent to Zhuangzi. The family of the coachman had some idea of what was going on. They must have been involved in something, and they didn't know why he looked like this.
It's very bad. You must know that the coachman's health has always been very good, but it is better to be unconscious at the moment.
In fact, the coachman knew something was wrong when the sixth lady jumped into the river, because it meant that there was going to be a scandal in the palace, and he couldn't run away. The person he signed the deed of sale would become a fugitive slave after he ran away, and the government would hunt him down, and he didn't have a household registration.
, and there is no road guide, how can you escape? And what should you do if you have your own family?
When he lay down on his own, he breathed a sigh of relief. It was so good! Even if he died, his family would not be affected. He fell into a coma not long after, his face was golden, his breath was weak, and he looked like he was not far from death.
The Xu family originally thought about how to wake the person up and ask questions, but after learning about the situation, they were worried that this person had contracted the plague. After all, the outbreak happened too quickly, and the noble person would not take any risk at all.
They immediately asked people to send the coachman away quickly. The coachman's family also understood some things, and saw that the coachman was not far from death. They were not even allowed to go to the doctor to have a look. The family left the capital with some sadness and were escorted to the farm.
After leaving the capital, they discovered that the coachman had regained consciousness, but he was still unable to speak. He still had to be helped by his family to walk a few steps. The family was overjoyed, but they still pretended that something was wrong with the coachman.
Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief when she found out. You must know that she did want to escape, but she didn't want to let innocent people suffer. Even if it was not good for them to go to a remote farm, at least they could save their lives.
This is also the reason why Mr. Xu asked Nanny Tang personally. The coachman had no way to ask and was sent away directly. So the only person who knew the situation was Nanny Tang.
After listening to what Nanny Tang said, Mr. Xu closed his eyes and wanted to remember what kind of child his granddaughter Miss Six was, but he couldn't remember because she lived like a shadow. He, a person who does great things, couldn't remember.
No.
In addition, he felt something was wrong. How could a child who had been growing up in a small courtyard have such quick decision-making ability? Is there anyone else behind this? Or was there something else he didn't know about? He always felt that Grandma Tang was hiding something.
When I arrived at Miss Six, I felt very scared.
Aunt Tang actually felt that this was not what a normal five-year-old child would do, so she was a little scared. I remember someone once said: God is watching what you do, and now that I think about it, it feels a little bad. When she faced Xu
When an adult looks at me thoughtfully, he quickly looks away, not daring to meet him.
When the young lady’s mother-in-law and sisters-in-law heard the news, they looked at each other a few times. Some of them couldn’t believe that this was reality. Xiaoliu, who had always been silent and dull, suddenly went crazy and jumped into the river? Is this impossible?
But Nanny Tang finally broke everyone's illusions. The Xiaoliu who had been ignored was really gone. When she was there, everyone didn't pay attention, and they didn't want to know anything more. There was no sadness at the moment. The only thought was how to solve the problem.
Fool your opponent.
Among them, the eldest young lady was the most silent. She didn't want to speak at all. She had no intention of saying anything else because she sent someone to ask in private. She didn't know where Xiaoliu's body had gone. At this moment, her whole body was unhappy.
I heard Xu Er say: "Actually, Xiaoliu has never gone out since she was this old. Others don't know what Xiaoliu looks like. Now it's okay to just find a little girl. Anyway, we say she is Xiaoliu. She
That’s Xiaoliu.”
He really didn't feel that there was any big problem with Xiaoliu jumping into the river. In his eyes, it didn't matter who Xiaoliu was. As long as Xiaoliu showed up when he needed Xiaoliu in the future, it was considered as an explanation to the powerful ministers and their family.
As soon as his words came out, Mr. Xu felt that Li Daitao's method was feasible, and he did not intend to send another granddaughter to the Yan family. You must know that the girls in the family are marriage tools, and he did not want to bother another granddaughter after losing a mistress.
In the end, this plan was put into effect. The Xu family said that the sixth lady in the family felt bad after being hit on the head, so they went to the farm to recuperate. Then they took the opportunity to find a caring girl to act as their mistress. Anyway, the child was young.
Xiao can quickly forget the past and regard himself as Xiaoliu.
Ling Xiao was so angry when she found out. What was this? Why did another girl have to suffer this kind of pain? In anger, she ran to see the girl, and when she found her, she found out that the adopted girl was the eldest lady.
Strongly advocated.
When they adopted her, they promised to give her family a certain amount of subsidies, but for some reason the girl's health was the kind of child that was born with particularly poor health and could not be raised well. If the Xu family did not support her, she might not be able to survive immediately.
When Ling Xiao found out, he looked at the sick-looking orphan girl and said, forget it, let her stay here! She doesn't have much time to live, so she can take good care of her if she stays here. The eldest lady specially sent Nanny Tang to keep an eye on her.
And Aunt Tang was also conscientious in her work, completely different from the previous attitude.
What is going on? The original owner is obviously the biological daughter of the eldest young lady, but she does not get the love of a mother. However, a foreign girl has the favor of the eldest young lady and Aunt Tang. This makes Ling Xiao unhappy.
Knowing how to evaluate the young lady's behavior, she finally turned around and left.
She couldn't understand the eldest lady's thoughts. She knew what was going on, but she still felt happy. The relationship with the Xu family was finally over. She was still a little heartbroken for the original owner, but she didn't have any more thoughts.
After Ling Xiao settled in the capital, she didn't want to visit the emperor. She didn't like this long-lived man who was quite famous in later generations. Like this emperor, who hadn't been in court for many years, he really didn't have many intentions and only pursued immortality.
Speaking of which, the person sitting on the throne of the emperor was originally a member of the clan and had no chance of becoming the emperor. But when his previous emperor died, there would be no children to succeed him. And if the dynasty needs to continue, it naturally needs a new emperor.
produce.
Therefore, there were more than twenty children in the clan who were gathered together by the powerful officials to see which one was suitable to be the emperor. The selection condition was that it was easier for the powerful officials to control, and the emperor was selected.
After he ascended the throne of the emperor, he was suppressed, and he was a truly smart man, quite powerful! After five years of fighting with powerful officials, he won the final victory. From then on, he became
He doesn't like others to disagree with him.
For a long time afterwards, because the emperor was fond of Taoism and liked to pursue immortality, probably because he wanted to live a long life, in this case the emperor recruited individual Taoist priests to his side and began to refine elixirs.
It was really because the emperor liked to make elixirs that a Taoist priest presented him with the elixir, and the emperor began to refine the elixirs according to the elixirs. He was assassinated because of this, and was almost strangled to death by the palace ladies, but the palace ladies were very nervous when they acted.
, instead allowing the emperor to escape.
It’s no wonder that the palace maids rebelled. One of the ingredients in a certain elixir was virgin menstrual blood. In order to obtain enough raw materials, the palace maids were forced to undergo mental and physical torture, which eventually led to more than ten deaths.
A palace maid rebelled and wanted to kill the emperor.
Such an emperor is really scary. Also, as the highest class of scholar-officials, the emperor naturally has the same characteristics as those nobles. He does not regard ordinary people as human beings at all. In the eyes of the emperor, the palace maids are tools and providers of raw materials.
, they are not the same people, they are just ants in the eyes of the emperor.
For a creature like the emperor, who is aloof and has no rules to restrict him, even a wise emperor often becomes stubborn, arrogant and unable to listen to other people's opinions in the later stages. Ling Xiao has no intention of taking a look.
It's not like she has never seen the emperor before. She doesn't have a good impression of this person who has been sitting on the emperor's throne. It is said that if you want to gain the favor of the noble emperor, you must find out the emperor's preferences, and the emperor likes them very much.
A minister who can write good Qingci.
Although the son of the powerful minister's family was short and fat and not very good-looking, he was quick-thinking and wrote a good poem, which ensured that the Yan family lived well and became an important minister of the emperor.
As a smart emperor who can still control the power of the court after not playing for more than 20 years, how could he not know the evil deeds of the Yan family and his son? No, he has a clear conscience, but he still knows how to use it, so why would the emperor do this?
This is because the emperor believed that it did not matter whether his ministers were loyal or treacherous, as long as the treacherous ministers were loyal to him, the emperor, and could be used by him. It was the use of powerful ministers that reduced the emperor's labor burden.
Therefore, even if other ministers filed memorials one after another to impeach the powerful officials for accepting bribes, selling out their official positions, excluding dissidents, murdering and setting fires, and other illegal and disciplined things, it didn't matter to the emperor, as long as the traitorous officials were loyal to him, the emperor.
You must know that treacherous ministers make people feel happy when they are used. Powerful ministers will obey the emperor when they speak, but loyal ministers will all restrain the emperor with rules and regulations, so that he can not be annoyed?
Think about it, what would it feel like if a person always heard that he could not do anything well? He would reluctantly accept it at first, but when he later accepted it, the emperor would start to let himself go, and would try his best to stay away from his ministers.
After all, there are very few emperors who can listen to the advice of their ministers.
Even Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, who loved to listen to advice the most, was so angry that he wanted to kill Wei Zheng, a farm slave. Empress Changsun stepped in to alleviate his rage.
