The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Chapter 494 Joining forces (2)

The rest of the servants were all dumbfounded when they heard this.

Miss Cheng Niannian hanged herself at the door of her mansion.

This matter swept across the entire capital almost at noon that day. After all, no one in the capital knew about the Cheng family, and the Cheng family lady was the most talented lady among the famous ladies, but for some reason she couldn't think of hanging herself. There must be something in it Strange.People from the Cheng family invited the most famous work in the capital, but it turned out that the girl from the Cheng family had indeed hanged herself to death.

Although no problem could be found, there was mourning from all over Cheng's house. Governor Cheng only got such a daughter in his middle age. One can imagine the blow.He didn't even want to participate in the matter of seizing the heir from the court anymore, he just felt disheartened and only grieved for his daughter.Cheng Niannian has always been gentle and decent, and he acted generously, so something must have happened to hang himself like this, but after going around and searching, he couldn't find anything. When asked about the servants in the mansion, Cheng Niannian's personal maid Speaking of recently, Cheng Niannian is a little strange, different from the past, and occasionally seems to be a little worried.When everyone heard this, they were sure that Cheng Niannian had hanged himself because of something, and for a while, the entire Cheng family was in agony.

When the news came back, Jiang Ruan was accompanying Xiao Shao to work in the study. While Xiao Shao was reading the secret letter sent by Jin Yiwei, Jiang Ruan curled up in Xiao Shao's arms. It looks very petite.In this way, on the one hand, it is very warm, on the other hand, it is convenient to read the things recorded in the secret letter with Xiao Shao.Xiao Shao didn't hinder her, let her watch, Jiang Ruan watched and said suddenly: "Hey? Cheng Niannian is dead?"

Even so, there was no surprise in his tone, as if he had expected this to happen.Xiao Shao's expression didn't change much either, he just let out a "huh".

"It's so fast," Jiang Ruan exclaimed, "Let me see...the reason for hanging herself at the gate of Cheng's mansion is too strange. Who would hang herself at the gate of her own house? Another lady from a great family, Dong Yi What do the people of the country think?" If it were any woman, even if she had the intention of dying, she would not want everyone to see her messy appearance before death, especially if she was hanged, that appearance is not very good-looking, Cheng Niannian is The daughter of a famous family, if she really wanted to hang herself, she would choose an empty room. How could she hang herself in front of her house without any scruples, and let so many people see her ugly appearance after death?Apparently, the people of Dongyi country were not thinking about it.

"Well, maybe the customs are different," Xiao Shao said sternly: "The people of Dongyi are open-minded." Seeing Jiang Ruan staring at him with a half-smile, Xiao Shao changed his words: "Cheng's residence is heavily guarded, and I'm afraid we will startle the snake."

"That makes sense." Jiang Ruan thought for a while, and agreed with Xiao Shao's words.One must know that Cheng's mansion is also the mansion of a first-rank courtier. Governor Cheng is also from a military background, and there are many masters in the mansion. It seems that Cheng Niannian has already died, and he died outside the mansion. The safe way of throwing Cheng Niannian at the door, although a bit rough, was safer.

"However, the people of Dongyi have some tricks to make Wu Zuo not see the problem." Jiang Ruan murmured, "You didn't have any evil methods when you fought against them back then, right?" She still remembered Jiang Susu's charm, Dongyi The Yi people seem to be good at these weird and secret things.

"Small skills." Xiao Shao said disdainfully: "Xia Qing is much smarter than him." Xia Qing is a master of Jinling, so he naturally has a way to detoxify. "However, Cheng's family has buried Cheng Niannian's body, the poison cannot be seen, and Xia Qing can't detoxify it." Xiao Shao said.The jewel in the Cheng family's family is dead, so it's natural to go to the ground earlier to make peace. At this time, Xia Qing goes up and jumps up again, maybe what others will think, but medical skills are all about seeing, hearing, and asking. Xia Qing might not be able to solve the tricks of the Dongyi people.

"It's okay." Jiang Ruan smiled slyly: "I have been prepared for a long time."

Xiao Shao glanced at her, but she didn't seem to be very surprised, Jiang Ruan said dissatisfiedly, "Why aren't you surprised?"

"Madam is so smart, there must be a way to deal with it." Xiao Shao said, "I can only retire after my achievements."

His sweet talk became more and more slippery, Jiang Ruan glared at him, and said: "Although he cannot be arrested, the Dongyi people are not unprepared, so this matter cannot be so simple. But in the world There is absolutely no such thing as turning around and leaving after calculating others. Ms. Cheng is also a rival in love. I like her quite a bit. At least I have to avenge her. This time, at least I have to add trouble to the Dongyi people. Ms. Cheng Since being killed by them is so embarrassing, why not let them be embarrassed too."

Xiao Shao: "..."

Jiang Ruan's words were high-sounding, but whoever said something like "I really like Cheng Niannian and wanted to help her avenge her" would be ashamed.Everyone knows that Jiang Ruan has a cold temperament, on the surface he is very gentle, but in fact he is very indifferent to everything, let alone a good person with a bodhisattva heart, what he does is nothing more than venting his displeasure in his heart.Seeing Xiao Shao's speechless expression, Jiang Ruan threatened: "You don't agree?"

"...Don't dare." Xiao Shao replied.

……

Cheng Niannian's death caused an uproar in the capital city. She was originally a noble and intelligent lady, she didn't know what happened to her, but she hanged herself at the door of her house. .Many possibilities emerged during the discussions among the common people, but the matter was not over yet. On the second day after Cheng Niannian was encoffined, a shocking news broke out in the capital: Miss Cheng's family hanged herself, but The person who was forced, and the person who forced Miss Cheng to death, was the Dongyi people, and the Dongyi people had mixed into the capital!
I don't know where this shocking news started, but the more it spread, the more fierce it became, and the more it spread, the more fierce it became, and there was a tendency to reach Tian Ting directly.And this shocking news was different from the previous ones that were full of loopholes. It actually described in detail the process of Cheng Niannian being threatened.It turned out that the Dongyi people had grasped the weakness of the Cheng family, and wanted Cheng Niannian to find a way to change the political stance of the entire Cheng family, to cooperate with the Dongyi people internally and externally, and to become the internal support of the Dongyi country in the Dajin Dynasty, but Miss Cheng has a temper. Zhonglie was also afraid that the Dongyi people would put his Cheng mansion in a place where the fire was cooking oil, so he gritted his teeth and hanged himself, wanting to protect the Cheng mansion.

As soon as such rumors came out, the entire capital was in an uproar.The Dongyi people all knew about the battle with the Dajin Dynasty many years ago.But when the Jin Dynasty destroyed the Dongyi Kingdom, the ambitions of the people of the Dongyi Kingdom were not dead, and it was indeed possible to make a comeback.And for this reason, Miss Cheng committed suicide at the gate of the mansion in the most tragic way, so it made sense.

Governor Cheng was furious in his heart, and finally had a place to vent his anger because of his daughter's death.It turned out that Cheng Niannian didn't know the reason for his death. Although Governor Cheng was heartbroken, he also blamed Cheng Niannian for not explaining the difficulties to his family.Now as soon as this rumor came out, Cheng Niannian became a loyal woman who wanted to protect her mansion but was unwilling to collude with the enemy and betray the country. Incompetent, heartbroken for Cheng Niannian's sacrifice.Originally, he had the idea of ​​retiring from the imperial court to spend his later years in peace, but now Governor Cheng has only one idea, which is to let the people who killed Cheng Niannian pay with their blood!
