Chapter 120 The Daughter Kicked Out of the House
Chapter 120 The Daughter Kicked Out of the House
After Song Xian'er, the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, fell down, she became like a different person.
At first, she didn't like her concubine and step-sister, but she didn't think of kicking them out.
At the age of 10, she fell down and woke up again. With her poem "When will the bright moon appear? I raise my glass to ask the blue sky", she caused a sensation in the whole capital and was regarded as the most talented woman in the world.
With this title, Minister Song also gained a lot of good reputation and was even more fond of Song Xian'er.
Song Xian'er disliked Concubine Zhou, who competed with his mother for favor, so he had Shangshu Song sell her out, and her daughters disappeared. He also disliked Song Yan'er's concubine's background and drove her out of the Song Mansion, along with Song Yan'er. It was announced to the public that these daughters were all dead.
With nowhere to go, the aunt took Song Yan'er back to Chunxiangyuan and started her old job, playing the pipa.
Song Yan'er was 14 years old that year. Her mother was exhausted and spent all her savings, but she still couldn't get treatment.
Without money to buy a coffin for her mother, 10 years later, Song Yan'er once again stepped into the Shangshu Mansion and knelt down to beg her father to give her some silver to bury her mother.
The rain that day was even heavier than the day Yiping asked her father for money.
Song Xian'er showed off the jade bracelet on her hand, "This one costs 200 taels."
Song Yan'er said nothing, her eyes only on Minister Song.
"Oh, I forgot." Song Xian'er suggested, "I'm going to marry into the Rui Palace soon. Why don't you become my maid? I'll give you 100 taels of silver. How about that?"
Song Yan'er agreed.
She returned to the Song Mansion, where her status was lower than that of an ordinary maid. She endured it all.
Soon, Song Xian'er had been married for five years and still had not given birth to a son or daughter for Prince Rui. The old lady was very dissatisfied and set a deadline. If she still could not get pregnant within half a year, then she would take a concubine for Prince Rui.
Song Xian'er then thought of her half-sister. She said, "If you give birth to a son safely, I will return your indenture contract to you. I will grant you freedom and let you leave the palace."
In fact, Song Yan'er had no right to refuse at all. She was now just a maid whose fate was controlled by others.
It's not like she hadn't thought about committing suicide, to put an end to it all. But when she saw Song Xian'er and her family, she hated them. Even if it meant death, she would drag them to hell!
Too bad she never got the chance.
If I get pregnant this time and can seduce King Rui, maybe I can have a chance to take revenge.
However, during childbirth, Song Xian'er had a difficult labor and changed her mind, not allowing any imperial physicians or midwives to attend. Thus, Song Yan'er died, leaving two lives unsolved.
"I hate all of them! I want revenge! And, if possible, I want my mother to be alive!"
"As you wish!" After saying that, Sheng Jiang disappeared.
……
This day was the day when Song Yan'er and her mother were driven out of the house.
Song Xian'er sat upstairs, looking at her aunt kneeling on the ground. She snorted coldly, "Women in this world are so shameless. Some actually willingly stoop to being someone else's concubine! I'm kind-hearted, so I'll let you out of the house and let you live freely. Isn't it better than trying to please a man in the house and relying on him to survive?"
Aunt Lian said carefully, "Young lady, you can't say that. We were children from a good family. If the Shangshu hadn't forced us to marry, we wouldn't have to live such a humble life!"
"What did you say? How dare you talk back? Cuizui, smash her fruit!" Song Xian'er said angrily.
The maid next to her stood still, looking confused: What are you saying, young lady? I don’t understand.
Song Xian'er kicked him angrily, "You bastard! Don't you even listen to me?"
The maid was so frightened that she knelt on the ground, "Miss, please spare me! I really don't understand what you mean."
Song Xian'er took a moment to react before she realized that modern language was different from ancient language. She had just spoken lines from a TV series. It was normal for the little maid to not understand.
After taking a deep breath, he said, "I mean to smash this Lian's mouth! Let her dare to talk back to me! How dare a concubine like her not take me seriously? After beating her, sell her off immediately!"
The maid Chun Xing walked forward with a fierce look in her eyes and slapped Lin Xian'er in the face.
Lin Xian'er was furious, "Bitch! How dare you hit me?"
Chunxing’s inner thoughts: I don’t want to hit you either, I haven’t lived enough.
But she couldn't control her hand and hit Lin Xian'er again. Lin Xian'er's face quickly became swollen.
Lin Xian'er was shocked, "Hurry up, someone, drag this bitch out and beat her to death!"
Chun Xing was her number one lackey in her previous life. She was killed off really early in this life.
Chun Xing was beaten to death with clubs. Before she died, she shouted, "You are not the young lady! You are a wandering ghost who came from nowhere and has taken over the young lady's body. Although the young lady didn't like the concubine and other young ladies in the past, she would never drive them out..."
"The young lady wasn't good at poetry before, but you can recite it fluently, as if you were reciting it from memory; the young lady can embroider, but you can't do it at all; the young lady has beautiful small regular script, but your handwriting looks like a dog's crawl. So you are definitely not a young lady! Where did you take our young lady to? Return her body to her!"
The maids around them looked at each other in bewilderment. Lin Xian'er shouted, "Why don't you shut his mouth quickly? Stuffing him with horse manure will make him talk nonsense! If this gets out, won't people outside laugh at our Shangshu Mansion?"
Sheng Jiang noticed that Mrs. Song was watching all this not far away, silent.
Perhaps she also knew that her daughter had died long ago, but this daughter was loved by Minister Song, so she could also be given some favor.
Chun Xing died, and Song Xian'er called the court doctor to check her face, making sure it was restored to its original state.
The court physician said, "This is really putting me in a difficult position! This isn't a slap. This is poisoning. And there's no cure. I'd better get out of here. If I stay any longer, I'll be dead."
Ginger: You never thought I'd poison you, huh?
After Sheng Jiang took Aunt Lian out of the house, he rented a small shop and started selling tofu.
Don’t ask why I sell tofu, because the author likes to eat it.
Scallion tofu, fried tofu, mapo tofu, tofu stewed with cabbage, tofu and vegetable soup, tofu pudding, tofu pudding... slurp, slurp.
Sheng Jiang plans to make Lian’s tofu which is famous throughout the capital, and will be called “Tofu Xishi” from now on!
Song Xian'er hasn't been out for a long time.
On this day, the Queen Mother held a flower viewing banquet. In name, it was for flower viewing, but in reality, it was to select a beautiful and talented princess for the princes, especially for her own son.
Hearing that the daughter of Minister Song was very talented, she was also looking forward to it.
Song Xian'er tried every possible way and consulted many famous doctors, but none of them could cure her face.
Looking at her bumpy face and the color like chocolate, she couldn't help crying again.
She burned Chun Xing's body and scattered her ashes. Without anyone to vent her anger on, she turned on the other maids.
The maids were trembling with fear.
Song Xian'er wants to marry the prince, but she can't wear a veil all the time. Besides, to be selected as the prince's consort, she has to have a physical examination to check whether there are any skin problems.
So she found a maid who looked very similar to her, asked her to wear a veil and pretend to be her, and participated in the election of the Crown Princess.
In order to prevent her maid from revealing her lack of literary talent, she had memorized many ancient poems in advance and ordered her maid to write them down. She couldn't lose her reputation as the most talented woman in the capital.
At the banquet, the Queen asked talented men and beautiful women to write poems on the theme of chrysanthemum.
The maid Chun Tao carried it directly on her back.
"When autumn comes on September 8th, I will kill all the flowers after they have bloomed.
The incense formation soaring into the sky penetrates Chang'an, and the whole city is covered with golden armor. "
Holy shit! As expected of a time-traveling girl, she's truly unique. She actually dared to recite such an anti-poem. I wonder if the Nine Clans is enough for her to overcome.
Song Xian'er did not receive envious and jealous looks from others, but instead saw the queen's cold face.
The queen was the queen after all. She did not lose her temper on the spot, but simply ended the flower viewing banquet briefly.
When Song Xian'er returned home, as expected, she was slapped by Minister Song for the first time. Her already ugly face became even more hideous now.
"Dad, you hit me?"
"I'll beat you up, you rebellious girl! Look at the poem you wrote at the flower viewing party! How dare you recite a rebellious poem in public? How many lives do you have left?"
"Come here! Drag her to the ancestral hall and don't give her any food or water. Starve her for three days and three nights! If she's still alive, send her to the farm immediately and let her fend for herself!"
Song Xian'er rushed to Madam Song, "Mother! Mother, save me! I don't want to kneel in the ancestral hall!"
Mrs. Song looked at her with complicated eyes. This was her daughter, and yet this was completely wrong. She absolutely could not sacrifice her family because of her.
Mrs. Song remained silent, and Song Xian'er became angry. "Let me go! What right do you have to arrest me? Everyone is equal, and I have human rights too!"
Madam Song, "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you drag her away quickly?!"
Minister Song submitted a memorial to the palace overnight, wanting to explain to the emperor that his daughter was possessed by a wandering ghost.
Unfortunately, the emperor refused to see him even after submitting his application several times.
Minister Song's heart rate jumped up. After returning home, he used the family law to beat Song Xian'er with a barbed whip until her skin was torn.
At this time, no one mentioned Song Xianer's good points anymore.
Song Xian'er was beaten to death and was thrown back into the ancestral hall. He wanted to send her to the farm the next day, hoping that the emperor would forgive him.
Who would have thought that the next morning, the maid came in a panic to report that the young lady was missing? ! !
Minister Song beat his chest and stamped his feet: If I had known this would happen, I should not have been so kind to her!
He immediately sent people all over the capital to look for him, but unfortunately found nothing.
It turns out that Song Xian'er had been stolen away by Prince Rui a long time ago!
Prince Rui's grandfather and the current emperor's father jointly fought for the throne. They once swore to each other that if they became rich and powerful, they would not forget each other.
Later, the previous emperor ascended the throne and granted King Laorui a different surname, with the title inherited from generation to generation, and presented him with a golden seal and iron certificate. It could be said that as long as King Laorui's descendants did not rebel or cross the emperor's line, even if they committed murder or arson, the emperor would not punish them. Their family would surely enjoy endless prosperity for generations.
The old Prince Rui and his son were very sensible and never participated in court affairs. But when it came to Prince Rui's generation, he began to feel indignant.
We both fought for the throne, but why did the Zhao family sit on the throne, but ours couldn't?
They began to form cliques and factions for personal gain.
The emperor saw it all, but ignored him. He had no military power, so what could he accomplish? He was nothing more than a clown.
No matter how much I planned, I never expected that Song Xianer, this weirdo, would actually be able to make explosives.
Such a talent must be kept in the royal family. So he wanted to use the flower viewing banquet to arrange a marriage between the prince and her.
I never thought this woman would dare to write a rebellious poem in public?! How audacious!
As for what Minister Song said, that she was possessed by a wandering ghost, he definitely believed it.
For example, some people who are seriously ill and on the verge of death suddenly change their temperament after they recover. They used to be picky and vindictive, but after the serious illness, they suddenly become amiable and magnanimous.
Some people are kind before they become seriously ill, but suddenly go crazy after they recover, becoming completely different people.
Also, after she recovered from her illness, she always said something that others couldn't understand, but looking at her serious expression, it seemed as if it really existed.
There are so many mysteries in the world. The only question is where does the soul in Song Xian'er come from? But the emperor was too lazy to investigate.
He only wanted to settle accounts with Prince Rui now. With Song Xian'er's incident, it was too unsafe. As for the Song family, huh, what kind of innocent person is Minister Song? His own daughter had changed a long time ago, so why didn't he mention it before? He looked at everyone else as fools?
Since the emperor had such thoughts, Sheng Jiang had to help him.
Soon, the Imperial Guards surrounded Prince Rui's mansion and confiscated a dragon robe and a warehouse of explosives.
Shocked the entire court!
The emperor was furious, and Prince Rui and the Song family were delighted to win the Nine Clans Elimination Game. All the women were exiled to the border to serve as military prostitutes.
Lin Xian'er was imprisoned in the royal dungeon.
The Crown Prince went to see Song Xian'er. He suppressed his nausea and pinched her face, his face full of affection. "Wasn't I good to you in the beginning? Because of you, the position of Crown Princess has been vacant until now. But you actually want to rebel for Prince Rui?"
"What rebellion? Are there any kings, princes, generals, or ministers of different races? Why can you be emperor, but Prince Rui can't?"
"Don't you claim that everyone is equal? Why do you want to climb to this highest position? Is your equality all fake? Do you just want to see everyone crawl at your feet? And you casually say that everyone is equal to show off your tolerance and magnanimity?"
The prince stopped pretending and asked, "Tell me, where are you from?"
"What place? I am from this era." Lin Xian'er pretended to be stupid. She was really afraid that she would have no way to survive if she told what she knew.
"Huh! How could people in this era create something as bizarre as yours? And even gunpowder with such lethality?"
The prince's expression changed in an instant, and he said affectionately, "If you tell me, I will love you from now on and still marry you as the Crown Princess. When I ascend the throne in the future, you will be the Queen, second only to the Emperor!"
Lin Xian'er didn't believe it.
The prince came to see her every day, and when he saw the jailer whipping her, he scolded him. Then he applied medicine to her and said affectionately that he wanted to marry her.
For two consecutive months, Lin Xian'er wavered.
In the past, she felt that Prince Rui did not have that much real power, and if he ascended the throne, it would be easier for her to control him.
Now if the prince really crowned himself as queen, it would look pretty good.
He talked about all the modern inventions he knew about, such as printers, pistols, and so on.
Ten years passed like this, and Lin Xian'er had also been imprisoned for ten years. Seeing that there was nothing more to expose about her, the prince ordered her to be secretly executed.
At this time, the country's national strength was unprecedentedly strong.
This is the value of a time-traveling woman.
In this life, Lin Yan'er's reputation as the tofu beauty spread, and she even opened other snack shops, barbecue shops, hot pot shops, etc., making a lot of money.
