The Legend of Rebirth of the Demon Empress

Chapter 21 Disrespect
It's just two streets away, but they haven't seen each other for so many years. Lin Zisu was already curious about the relationship between Sun Duzhong and her family. Hearing what his father said, he felt that there was something hidden in it.

But the parents were terrified because of the possession, and Lin Zisu felt a little guilty.

Since Lin Yuanzhi said so, she was unwilling to defy her father's intentions face to face, and immediately said: "Daughter remembers."

March 22 was the date that Liang Wanyi had made an appointment. Afraid that her daughter would lose face in front of outsiders, Bi found some affordable jewelry from her dowry and sent them to Lin Zisu's boudoir in advance.

It took Lin Zisu a lot of time to dress up, and before Lin Zisu had time to eat breakfast, she got into the carriage and rushed towards Chang Guogong's mansion.

Chang Guo Gong's Mansion is the Queen's natal family, only one street away from the Imperial Palace, while Kang Ning Bo's Mansion is located in Dongcheng, next to Chongren Gate.

All the hawkers outside the city came and went through Chongren Gate, and there were all kinds of shops in the east city, so Lin Zisu left early, and by the time he arrived at Changguo Mansion, it was still past Si time.

A nun was guarding the gate of Changguo Mansion, and saw a black-topped carriage parked outside the mansion gate, and brought a maid, who seemed to be a guest invited by her own eldest daughter, but seeing the style of the carriage and the attire of the maid, it was not the same. It doesn't look like they came from the Duke's family.

The nanny hesitated for a moment, but she still stepped forward and bowed slightly, and asked, "Is this the carriage of Miss Kangningbo?"

Hu Po replied: "Exactly. My daughter was invited by the eldest daughter of your mansion to have a talk at your mansion. I don't know what the name of the nanny is?"

Because the eldest lady of Chang Guogong's mansion had explained it, when the mother heard that she was the eldest lady of Uncle Kangning's mansion, she quickly put on a smile and said, "My servant's surname is Jiang, and I was ordered to welcome the girl into the mansion."

Madam Jiang's words were vague, Lin Zisu and Hu Po didn't care, and let her lead the carriage to Yimen of Changguo Mansion.

There was already a sedan chair waiting inside the Yimen, and it carried Lin Zisu to the backyard. After about a stick of incense, the sedan chair stopped at the gate of a courtyard.

Lin Zisu got off the sedan chair and thought she had arrived at Liang Wanyi's yard. She raised her eyes and looked around. Seeing that the layout and decorations in the garden were magnificent, it didn't look like a place where a girl lived. She felt strange and asked, "Madam Jiang?" Mo, sister Yi lives in this yard?"

Mother Jiang laughed and said: "This is the courtyard of my wife's wife. She likes to chat. It's the first time for a girl to come to the house, so she happens to be chatting with my wife's wife."

Lin Zisu came to be a guest, and it was the right thing to visit the elders of the Liang family, but as the head of the family, he took the guests directly to the elders' courtyard without telling the guests in advance, which was obviously a bit rude.

Lin Zisu didn't want to argue with the servants, so she smiled lightly and said, "Madam Jiang, please lead the way."

A maid in the front hurriedly stepped into the flower hall to announce, and Madam Jiang led Lin Zisu into the door behind.

Lin Zisu approached the flower hall, and heard the sound of "buzzing" like a beehive inside, obviously discussing matters.

Lin Zisu froze for a moment, wondering what the Liang family meant by inviting an outsider like herself here, she thought for a while, and left Amber at the entrance of the flower hall.

In the flower hall, the wives, aunts, and girls of the Liang family were still there. Seeing Mammy Jiang bringing a new girl over, they all stared at Lin Zisu, and they all had doubts in their hearts.

Who is this girl?Why did she appear in Mrs. Tai's yard at this time?

"Junior Lin Zisu, I have met Mrs. Tai and all the ladies"

Lin Zisu bowed to Mrs. Liang, who was seated at the head, and then looked at the two wives who sat in the main and second seats.

Mrs. Liang, who is in the main seat, is about 50 years old, wearing a rust-colored crane-patterned beanie, and is staring at herself with a serious face.

Sitting next to her was Mrs. Chang Guogong, who looked more than 40 years old, with a golden head and a string of white round pearls hanging around her neck.

After Lin Zisu finished her salute, before Mrs. Liang had time to speak, Mrs. Chang Guogong smiled and said, "Oh! It's rare that Miss Lin came to our house, so you don't need to be polite."

Mrs. Chang Guogong exchanged a few words with Lin Zisu, and couldn't wait to introduce Lin Zisu to Mrs. Liang, and then urged Lin Zisu to greet the ladies sitting at the bottom.

Although there was a smile on the corner of Mrs. Chang Guogong's mouth, her expression was still a little mean. The next few ladies didn't dare to say much, but responded with a few perfunctory expressions.

Liang Wanyi stood behind her mother, feeling annoyed in her heart. Madam Jiang was someone close to her mother. At this moment, she led her guests to her grandmother's living room for no apparent reason. She must have received her mother's instruction.

In front of her grandmother and Lin Zisu, Liang Wanyi couldn't blame her mother.Taking advantage of her mother's pause, Liang Wanyi said to Lin Zisu, "Sister Zisu, sit in my courtyard for a while, and I'll go over later."

As she spoke, Liang Wanyi greeted a maidservant behind her, and ordered her to lead Lin Zisu the way.

Lin Zisu was like a Meng Dahe, and smiled and saluted Mrs. Liang: "The junior came here rashly today and disturbed the affairs of your house. If you are disrespectful, please forgive Mrs. Liang and all the ladies."

After speaking, he was about to follow the maidservant out of the flower hall, but Mrs. Chang Guogong stopped her and said, "Miss Lin, don't worry, I heard from Sister Yi that you took good care of her at the eldest princess's village a few days ago. I haven't thanked you in person yet."

After Madam Chang Guogong finished speaking, she pointed to the empty seat beside Liang Wanyi, and asked Lin Zisu to take a seat.

When the wives of the Duke of Chang's Mansion came over early in the morning, they saw that there was an extra seat in the flower hall, and they were still secretly surprised. They thought that something important would happen in the mansion, and they were anxious and uneasy. The husband and wife's intentions winked at each other.

Lin Zisu looked at Liang Wanyi with some embarrassment, and was about to sit down. Liang Wanyi stood up and supported her shoulders, and said to Mrs. Chang Guogong, "Grandmother, mother, Sister Zisu is a visitor from afar. I will accompany her back to the yard first." .”

Seeing her daughter not giving her face so much, Mrs. Chang Guogong wanted to reprimand her.

Immediately, she realized that she still had to rely on her daughter for what she had in mind, and finally suppressed her anger, and said with an unhappy face: "Understood, since you have guests, you can go back."

As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of crying from outside the flower hall, and then a stern female voice came to everyone's ears: "Please spare me! I beg Tai Furen and Da Furen to spare the life of this servant!"

This voice startled everyone, and they all looked out of the door with their necks erect, wanting to find out why.

Mrs. Chang Guogong's face changed drastically, and regardless of Lin Zisu's presence, she screamed: "Drag it down! Drag this lowly servant girl down!"

As soon as she gave an order, a woman walked out quickly, and then the sound of slapping and scolding mixed with the cry of the woman spread to the flower hall.

I only heard the woman crying and saying: "It is not a pity for the slave to die, but the slave is pregnant with the eldest son's flesh and blood, please Madam, for the sake of the eldest son, please spare the slave's life!"

Mrs. Chang Guogong jumped up from the chair with a "huh", and she didn't know who to direct her anger. She repeatedly slapped the table and shouted: "It's not easy to do anything, waste! Everything is waste!"

Seeing that his wife was anxious and angry, two more women moved out of the flower hall.

After a while, the crying in the courtyard suddenly stopped. Looking at the dim faces of the ladies in the hall, Lin Zisu regretted that she walked slowly just now. Neng and Liang Wanyi sat back quietly.

After a moment of silence in the flower hall, Mrs. Liang coughed lightly and asked, "Boss, daughter-in-law, what's going on?"

Mrs. Chang Guogong disapproved, sat back in the chair angrily, and said, "It's not a big deal, but a girl from Brother Tai's side is proud of being favored. My daughter-in-law taught me a few words, and if I can't stand being wronged, I will go to your old lady." Come to file a complaint."

Mrs. Liang just heard some tricks involving the blood of Liang's parents and grandchildren, so she didn't care about the Liang family's face, so she asked with a cold old face: "Is that true? The girl said she was pregnant with the eldest son. Bone and blood, what's going on here?"

Mrs. Chang Guogong said: "That is what this lowly servant girl said nonsense in order to avoid punishment. Mother doesn't have to take it seriously."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking, and there was another commotion, and a woman shouted in a broken voice: "Young master! Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Da are waiting for guests, you can't go in."

Immediately afterwards, a male voice came over: "Bullshit guest! Who can have red sleeves is important!"

Both Lin Zisu and Liang Wanyi recognized that it was Liang Mingtai's voice, and saw Liang Mingtai dragging a woman's wrist into the flower hall. The woman staggered a few steps, fell to her knees with a plop, and kowtowed incessantly. : "Your servant knows it's wrong! I beg Mrs. Tai and Da Furen to spare my servant's life!"

Lin Zisu saw that this woman had a pretty face. Although she was dressed as a maid, she had a few more dazzling jewelry than ordinary maids. Her beautiful eyes were full of tears, and she looked pitiful. It seemed that she was crying in the courtyard just now. woman.

Liang Mingtai didn't look at the people in the flower hall, strode up to Mrs. Chang Guogong and asked without saluting, "Mother, what did Hongxiu do wrong that you want to put her to death?"

Mrs. Chang Guogong got angry for a moment, pointed at Liang Mingtai and said, "Nizi! For this lowly maidservant, you dare to disobey my words, don't you? Mother, it's all for your own good!"

Liang Mingtai wanted to make a fuss right now, and before entering the yard, he drank a few sips of wine and became more courageous, shouting: "I won't listen, what can you do to me! If you don't have Hongxiu, I won't get married in the future!"

Mrs. Liang knew how virtuous her daughter-in-law and grandson were, and she was afraid that words that would not be on the table would come out of their mouths, so she put the teacup in her hand on the table heavily, pointed at the red sleeve and said: "Say it! what is the problem!"

Although Mrs. Liang usually doesn't care about things, her identity is kept there. When she yelled, Mrs. Chang Guogong and Liang Mingtai stopped making noise.

Hongxiu kowtowed three more times to Mrs. Liang, and sobbed, "This servant is pregnant with the eldest son's flesh and blood. The eldest lady said it was against the rules, so I asked the servant to remove the child. The servant has already drank Ling Ling for three days according to the order of the eldest lady." The soup is gone, and today the Da Furen asked the kitchen to deliver nuxon soup to the servants, if you drink it like this, the servants will still be alive!"

Both Lingxiao Decoction and Nymphony Decoction are used for abortion.Lingxiao Decoction has the effect of invigorating blood circulation and regulating menstruation, and is often used by wealthy families for abortion, while Nymphony Decoction can achieve the effect of abortion by dredging collaterals and dispelling stagnation, but it is cold and poisonous in nature. Nine Springs were killed.

Lin Zisu is familiar with medical books, so she naturally knows these two medicines. She frowned, and felt that the wife of Chang Guogong was a petty person, and she was not like a mistress. The princess looked down.

Liang Wanyi secretly looked at Lin Zisu's expression, her face blushed, and she wished she could slip through a crack in the ground.

She concentrated her mind for a moment, got up and said: "Grandmother, mother, you can handle the affairs of the house. I have guests, so I won't be here to accompany you." After finishing speaking, she pulled Lin Zisu out of the flower hall.

Liang Mingtai saw Lin Zisu just now, he was dumbfounded, and he stood there dumbfounded and said, "Lin...Miss Lin?"

After Liang Mingtai tried to ask Lin Zisu to marry him, Mrs. Chang Guo asked someone to inquire, and felt that the Lin family only occupied the title of Uncle Kangning's mansion, and was always a small family in the countryside.

Later, Liang Mingtai couldn't hold back Liang Mingtai, and she was soft-spoken. When she heard that Lin Zisu showed her skills at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, even the emperor was full of praise. The meaning is to have a son.

With these prerequisites in place, Lin Zisu's low birth is not a big problem. It's better to lower your head to marry a daughter-in-law. It's better to have a lower family background. After you get married, it's easy to be manipulated by yourself. If you marry a princess in the palace, you will also enshrine her Sorry.

After thinking about it for a few days, she felt more and more that this marriage was reliable.

Having made up her mind, Mrs. Chang Guogong went to beg the queen again with a cheeky face, and wanted to ask the emperor to issue a decree for a marriage. The Lin family won't be able to refuse the Lin family's refusal if their family has gained fame.

However, the empress was not very favored at all. The emperor beat the empress on the head for the pretext of setting up a prince. How could the empress dare to speak more in front of the emperor?

Seeing that the queen did not respond for a long time, and Liang Mingtai made a big fuss again, Mrs. Chang Guogong was helpless, and when she heard that her daughter Liang Wanyi and Lin Zisu had a good relationship, she urged her daughter to invite Lin Zisu to visit.

One is to let Lin Zisu see the prosperity of Changguo Duke's Mansion, which makes her yearn for it; second, it is also to show off her vision in front of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, so as to consolidate her position in the mansion.

Mrs. Chang Guogong was afraid that her daughter would not agree, so she played a trick and ordered Madam Jiang to guard the door and brought Lin Zisu here.

After Hongxiu's disturbance, all the plans of Mrs. Chang Guogong's wife fell through. Liang Mingtai was not married yet, and the girl in the house was pregnant with a concubine. Zisu's face was exposed, which made her even more ashamed.

With a sad face, Liang Mingtai asked, "Mother, this... this... what should I do?"

Mrs. Chang Guogong lost face in public and felt extremely uncomfortable. Liang Mingtai's question was like adding fuel to the flames. She waved her hand and slapped Liang Mingtai, and said sharply: "You rebellious son! Marry whoever you like, and in the future I do not care!"
