Chapter 138 The fugitive (2)
So in the past few days, there were traffic in front of Jiang’s mansion, and they all came to curry favor with Jiang Quan.
Jiang Quan secretly wiped out the khan. The entire Prime Minister's Mansion's family had been imprisoned. This matter was very bad. Even if he was lucky enough to be released in the end, it would be difficult for the Li family to restore the situation of unlimited honor and favor in the past. The eighth prince's power was damaged, and the court did not dare to act rashly at this moment, even the Xia family had no movement.
The Jiang family relies on the Xia family, and the Xia family relies on Xuan Li. If Xuan Li had any problems, the Jiang family would naturally have no future. Jiang Quanben was worried about this, but he didn't expect that Jiang Xinzhi would appear halfway, which made the situation of blooming again in the Jiang family, which had already collapsed.
While he was socializing, his colleagues who came to flatter him, his heart was very complicated. It would be Jiang Chao who brought glory to the Jiang family, but it was Jiang Xinzhi. Jiang Xinzhi did see that he brought many benefits to the Jiang family, but he was arrogant as soon as he came back. If he really got the emperor's eyes, wouldn't he be in the Jiang family in the future? This eldest son had never taken him seriously before, but now he was more and more Japanese. If all the business of the Jiang family fell into his hands in the future, there would be no room for Jiang Chao and Jiang Susu. Thinking of this, a trace of depression flashed through Jiang Quan's eyes.
Jiang Quan was in a complicated mood, and someone was in a worse mood than him. Since the Bochang Reservoir incident, the number of broken cups and plates in Yanhuayuan and Suxinyuan increased rapidly. Xia Yan happened to be bedridden by the cold and was ill. The servants in the mansion quietly rumored that Xia Yan was ill by Jiang Xinzhi's re-master.
The more rumors were, somehow they spread to the streets and alleys of the capital. Everyone was talking, saying, "Look, Xia Yan, a talented woman who was famous in the capital back then, would inevitably become a petty jealous woman after entering the mansion. She was dignified and generous in her usual manner, and was just pretending to be tolerant and tolerant. Otherwise, when Master Jiang made a contribution, why would he get sick so angry?
These words were passed back and forth, and finally they were sent back to Jiang’s mansion. Almost the second day, Xia Yan’s illness was cured.
Xia Yan's illness was cured, but Jiang Chao was sick again. He was locked in his yard and kept his door closed.
Even the main house looked like this, so when other concubines and daughters in Jiang's mansion met Jiang Ruan, they showed some taboos.
No matter what other people's attitudes in Jiang's mansion are, Jiang Xinzhi and his sister are content. If there is another person in the mansion who is happy, it is Mrs. Jiang.
Mrs. Jiang has been lingering in sickness. After all, she is a man of sixty. She is sick and goes like a mountain and goes like a thread. She is very happy to hear that Jiang Xinzhi is promoted to deputy general. However, after Jiang Xinzhi returned to Beijing, the military affairs are busy, and Mrs. Jiang is not in good condition. She finally got to go to the ground for a walk this day, so she couldn't wait to call Jiang Ruan and his sister to come.
In Guilan Courtyard, Mrs. Jiang looked at the majestic young man in front of her with satisfaction. She was old and her favorite was Jiang Chao who had been with her since childhood. However, Jiang Chao has disappointed her frequently recently. However, Jiang Xinzhi suddenly won the battle and returned to Beijing, which made her look at her with admiration.
Compared to Mrs. Jiang's enthusiasm, Jiang Xinzhi seemed polite and unfamiliar. He was more polite and not close enough. After a while, Mrs. Jiang also saw Jiang Xinzhi's attitude, and his face gradually became less kind than before.
Jiang Xinzhi was also a person who had been tempered in the army. He turned a blind eye to Mrs. Jiang Ruan, let alone said that, and only smiled without saying anything. Mrs. Jiang secretly reminded Jiang Xinzhi to help the Jiang family more. If possible, he would also help Jiang Chao. He would inherit the Jiang family in the future. Jiang Chao was his younger brother at least.
However, Jiang Xinzhi quietly pushed the words back and tried Tai Chi, but in the end he didn't agree with anything.
Mrs. Jiang was extremely smart all her life. When she met Jiang Ruan's brother and sister so indifferent, she naturally felt a little unhappy. After a few more greetings, her attitude gradually became colder. Then she waved her hand and said that she was sleepy.
After Jiang Ruan left, she said to Caique beside her: "I thought it was a treasure, but I was a ignorant of the current affairs."
"The eldest young master is resentful to his wife. After this resentment, it will be better. It's still a family." Caique advised.
"There is no resentment, it is clearly a revenge." Mrs. Jiang sighed deeply: "Let them do whatever they want, Xia Yan should suffer." Although she loves Jiang Chao, it is not necessary for Jiang Chao. After all, Jiang Quan is not her biological child. She just needs to protect the Ronghua of the Jiang Mansion. Whether the future head of the Jiang Mansion is Jiang Chao or Jiang Xinzhi, is actually no different for her.
Jiang Ruan and Jiang Xinzhi walked out of Guilan Courtyard, Jiang Ruan said: "Grandmother must be angry with you."
"I don't care about the location of Jiang's Mansion." Jiang Xinzhi's voice was quiet: "Don't ask for help."
"It's better not to." Jiang Ruan said with a smile.
Because the Jiang Mansion will eventually collapse in the future. Why bother dying people to worry about the blooming flowers during their lifetime?
As he was speaking, he saw a trace of clothes appearing from the garden. Jiang Ruan smiled slightly and suddenly raised his voice and said, "Since my grandmother wants to admit that my eldest brother is the head of the family, it is naturally my grandmother's intention. My eldest brother must think carefully."
Jiang Xinzhi was slightly surprised, and looked at Jiang Ruan's expression and seemed to understand something, and then smiled and said, "That's it."
The corners of the clothes flashed quickly in the flowers, and Jiang Ruan and Jiang Xinzhi looked at each other and laughed.
The two brothers and sisters in the Jiang family were leisurely and leisurely, so there were naturally not so leisurely people. For example, the Li family who was sealed off the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Li family who were imprisoned.
Everyone in the prime minister's mansion was arrested by officials, but Ang Lee was leaked. The second young master of the Li family fled for fear of crime and searched the whole capital, but no trace of him was found. This was a major event in the capital, so there were constables searching people in the capital every day.
The second young master of Li's family has been extremely smart since he was a child, but he didn't know where he hid, but with his prudence, he was afraid that he would be caught so easily.
In the alleys of the poor in the capital, a dirty inn was shaking. The rains of days had already overturned the roof of the inn half. In the storm, it seemed that the inn was about to collapse in the next second.
A man in gray came in, and the shopkeeper was lying on the table for a nap. Unexpectedly, someone would come at this time, so he hurriedly greeted him: "Objectively, stay in a hotel or eat?"
"A middle room." The man in gray took out a small piece of silver: "The food was delivered to the house." After that, he raised his foot and went upstairs. The inn was disrepair for a long time and was in a dark alley in a slum. The rich disdained to live in such a store, and the poor had no money to live in such a store. Therefore, there were very few customers in the store.
The shopkeeper smiled and agreed, and went upstairs to find a house for the man in gray.
After finding the house, the shopkeeper went downstairs. The man in gray closed the door and slowly took off his gray coat. Under the dirty coat, there was a handsome face, but his expression was a bit ferocious and gloomy.
This person is Ang Lee.
