Chapter 559: The Woman I Love?
s is all Ye Wenyan, that witch’s doing. If we’re going to be angry, we need to aim our anger at the right target.”The sixth prince patted his forehead, "Second Madam, Ye Wenyan is already dead. You wa...Zhou Shang looked at Zhu'er in surprise. He didn't understand why Zhu'er was speaking like that.
A slave dares to speak ill of his master, and even speaks so harshly! Doesn't this slave have too much courage
"You can't speak like that" 。He glared at Zhuai'er angrily, "The Great General is the master, and it's none of our concern as servants what the master does or doesn't do." 。Moreover, the general was a hero of Northern Qi, and his military achievements for Northern Qi were enough to outweigh his other transgressions. 。
In that case, even if someone were to say it, it should be the mistress who speaks. You shouldn't speak out of turn.
"At that, she refused to do it any longer— “What do you mean I shouldn’t speak up My current mistress is the Fourth Miss, and my previous mistress was the Madam. No matter what, I always stand with both the Fourth Miss and the Madam.” 。He is sorry to the mistress, he doesn't deserve our respect as servants. I am just a lowly woman, and I cannot control the affairs of the state. 。I knew the master of the house was having a hard time. Whoever made her suffer should be scolded! "You...""What" Zhu'er glared, "Did I say something wrong No! General Da is just a mama's boy. He only treats his mother well in his life. The worse his mother treats him, the better he wants to treat her." 。We don't know what's wrong with you. People look down on you, but you still have to lick your face and go up to them. Can't you see who's high and low For an old lady, he made the mistress and her family suffer so much, you naturally wouldn't know, but I do. 。You are also a slave to the Ye family. Although you were always on the border before, these past few months, Old Madam has done some things, and you have seen them with your own eyes. 。You say our mistress has suffered so much over the past twenty years But she thinks, even though her mother-in-law is difficult, her husband treats her well. He hasn't taken a concubine despite his high official position, and he loves her wholeheartedly. So she endures all the hardships and insults. 。And the result I tell you, Zhou Shang, the Mu family are also descended from warriors, and the Mu clan values honor! If Madam had known about General's affairs outside all these years, she would have turned her face on him long ago! She wouldn't have endured Old Madam any longer!Don't talk to me about being a hero or not, I only know he was unfaithful and deceitful towards his wife. A lifetime of lies and deceit!"This girl Zhuier has quite the temper, she said everything that had been bottled up in her heart all at once. 。At the end, he added with a hint of reproach: "Zhou Shang, you're not being honest! You haven't told us everything! Besides that concubine who has given birth, what about the rest of General Da's affairs"
Zhou Shang was taken aback. "The rest" He lowered his head immediately. "You know about the other two wives too"
Ye Wenyan couldn't help but laugh. "The other two" What has Night Gui been up to these years Did he go off to war, or take on more concubines She knew that Zhuai was talking about the princess, but she didn't expect this to be a surprise harvest
Zhou Shang still kept his head down, failing to notice the surprise in Ye Wenyan's expression. He simply said honestly: "Besides the concubine who gave birth to a child for the General, there are also two beloved women at the border general’s side..." 。The general was actually more concerned about the two of them, because he told me to call them both "madam". 。One is Qin Fu, and the other is Jing Fu. 。But that concubine, the general only allowed me to call her aunt. 。"Nightingale listened, her brows furrowing. Qin Madam and Jing Madam What kind of things were these Returning to the bustling life at the border, besides concubines, he even had red-faced confidantes Concubines who gave birth to his children could only be called aunt, but red-faced confidantes could be called Madam"Since they are all called Madam, then they definitely aren't just red-faced confidantes, they must also have been taken into the household as wives" she snorted. "Madam, Night View Sheng has one official wife and one concubine wife, that’s just two Madams. But he went ahead and made three." 。"Could he possibly be getting married at the border" Zhou Shang shook his head. "How could that be possible They're keeping the whole thing about the concubine under wraps, let alone Qin and Jing's wives." 。Not only did he conceal it from the mistress, but also from that aunt. Even those two mistresses were unaware of each other's existence. 。The border town was very large, built along the line of demarcation, a long semi-circular shape with an entrance at one end and an exit at the other. 。It takes more than two hours even by carriage from the entrance to the exit. 。So if two people live on one side and the other, there's really no chance of seeing each other. 。Moreover, as long as the General is not with them when they go out, even if they happen to meet, they wouldn't know who he is. And the General would never go out with them. 。"Nightinggale Yan was very interested in the two. "Since you mentioned confidantes before, and could have such a saying, the two of you must be quite influential figures in your local area." 。"Tell me, what's their background" Zhou Shang then told her, "The Qin family runs a medical clinic. She learned medicine from a young age. Once, she went alone to the border region to collect herbs and encountered the Qihu people who crossed the border..." 。When that man saw her beauty, he wanted to take her back as his wife. Luckily, the general who was out hunting happened upon them and saved her. 。Speaking of which, that time was also a coincidence. In the past, the general would never personally go on hunts. This time, it was after an argument with his aunt. It seemed like his aunt mentioned the matter of the child recognizing his ancestors again, and the general was very troubled, so he took me hunting. 。Lady Qin was eighteen years old that year, which was considered an old maid. Because there was a major funeral in her family, she had not yet been married. 。The Great General saved her, and she just happened to be carrying medicine herbs. She used them to heal a wound on the Great General's arm. 。The two people, coming and going frequently, developed feelings for each other. Qin Fu was also a woman of great spirit; in order to hide their relationship from everyone, she even broke with her family and the general. 。" He glanced at Ye Wenyan, seeing that there was no sign of anger on his face, so he dared to continue—" “Jingfu is the head card of the local flower building. Because she is simply peerless in beauty, the madam of the flower building has never been willing to give her away." 。She stayed with me until she was nineteen, until someone offered a price higher than the sky, then my mother finally let go. 。And the one who offered a high price was none other than the general himself. 。The general, however, was not convenient to show his face, so I did it. I gave the mother of Huailou a sum of money, but it wasn't to buy her for one night, it was to redeem her directly. 。After leaving the flower building, Lady Jing was kept by the General in a small courtyard at the easternmost end of the town. Though it was an ordinary and unremarkable place, Lady Jing loved him with all her heart. 。After all, being a concubine for a general is far better than performing in a flower house. 。Perhaps in the future, there will be a chance to return to the capital with the general and gain recognition from her family. Then she would truly turn over a new leaf and could even go back to the border to find the person who had forcefully taken her to the brothel and seek revenge on the madam of the brothel. 。These things are not my guesses, I've heard Mrs. Jing say them many times. 。Unfortunately, the General wouldn't take them back. He didn't even bring back the concubine who gave birth to his young son, let alone these two ladies who had never produced any heirs. 。"That's all..."
He hesitated at this point, a flicker of worry in his eyes, "Miss Four, the General returned to Beijing to visit his family but died at home. I wonder if those three know about this..." 。Although the three of them are only concubines, none of them have a good temper. Each one is fiercer than the last. The servants are truly afraid that if they find out about this, they will cause a ruckus. 。When all is revealed, the general's spotless reputation will be ruined. 。"He has no reputation left! His reputation is all a lie he fabricated to deceive others! If you're afraid of getting caught, don't do it! If you do it, don't hide it! If you hide it, don't be afraid to be exposed! What does he want He wants both fame and fortune, as well as women! Let me tell you, this is because he's a general. There are some harsh words I can't say, or else I would tell him: what are you pretending to be and what are you standing for!"Zhou Shang's face was flushed red. He wanted to argue with Zhuai Er, but he felt that whatever he said wouldn't hold up. 。The general was definitely in the wrong about this. No matter how you look at it, he owes his family an apology. 。Besides, Miss Four is still sitting here. Miss Four's fondness for this maidservant is almost as close as that of sisters. He cannot fail to consider Miss Four's attitude. 。What kind of attitude does Miss Si have She doesn't seem to have any. 。She just fiddled with her fingernails for a moment, then said in a flat tone: "That's enough, I know all about it, you go busy yourself!" Zhou Shang was not reassured: "What is Fourth Miss planning to do about this Miss, the General is dead, can't we just let this go You should act as the Madam and don't let her know about these upsetting things. The servant knows the General wasn't good, but I feel that there are reasons for his behaviour..." 。"The old mistress is one of the reasons!" He paused, observing Ye Wenyan carefully. Seeing that Ye Wenyan didn't mention him leaving again, he knew Ye Wenyan wanted to hear what he had to say, so he continued, "The General often drinks alcohol at the border, and I always accompany him..." 。Every time he drinks a little too much, he starts talking about his family. He talks about how good his wife is to him and how bad the old lady is to him. 。The general said he was unwilling to accept this. He had worked hard to earn fame and fortune for his family, so why didn't his mother like him The second son was a useless good-for-nothing, yet their mother placed him in such an important position in her heart. I was so good, but in her eyes, I was worthless. 。As soon as these matters were mentioned, the general drank even more fiercely. 。Especially that time when both the grandfathers also went to the border for training, they brought two full carriages of luggage, all prepared by the old madam for their wear and use. 。The general was confident that he would definitely have a share, even if it wasn't half. At least three or five pieces of clothing should be his. 。Unfortunately, both vehicles were filled with things for the two old masters. Nothing was left for him. 。The old madam only had the second master bring a message, saying that as the elder brother, you must take good care of your younger brother. 。If your younger brother gets injured on the battlefield, you're never to return to Beijing again. 。Humans are like that. The more they resent it, the more they want the old lady's maternal love, and the more they want it, the less they get it. 。So his personality became increasingly withdrawn, and he was less and less willing to face everything in his family home in Beijing. 。"Perhaps... perhaps General Wang's greatest desire is to never return to the capital, and just spend his days guarding at the border with the woman he loves."
Night Wenyan finally smashed the teacup in his hand!
The woman he loves
