The general's wife through time

Chapter 5 The person behind Wei Shengmiao

Xue Tang returned to his yard and sent someone to call Qin Shuanyuan's secret guards.

The last time the original owner went to the study to take away the mirror, she had to resort to some tricks. The secret guard was transferred away, and she succeeded.

When the secret guard saw Xue Tang, his displeasure was evident on his face.

There is a grudge between them. If the mirror is not returned and the general finds out, it will be evidence of their neglect of duty. There is a sharp sword hanging above their heads at the moment.

The secret guard said coldly: "Is there something wrong, madam?"

Xue Tang didn't care about his attitude, but looked at him in trance for a moment.

She noticed that this secret guard had been on the battlefield, and his temperament evoked the feelings deep in Xue Tang's heart, which were the persistence and firm belief in protecting the country behind him.

She misses the world in her previous life, but she is not sad, because after that life-and-death battle, it will become stronger, and her country and home will be protected by better people, so she does not need to worry about it.

She waved her hand, "Send the mirror back, a gentleman will not take away others' love."

The secret guard said nothing more and took the mirror away. When he left, he glanced at Xue Tang and groaned: Huh, gentleman? You are just a villain.

At this time, everything in the study room that Xue Tang had tidied up was ready, and she walked in.

This world is quite simple for her. She believes that she can live a good life, but she knows too little about it and the way of transmitting information is backward, so she needs to read more and ask people to tell her more about the outside world. .

As soon as she sat down, she was forced to see the handsome man's portrait spread out on the table.

The maid put this portrait according to the original owner's habit. Everyone knew that the madam loved the general to the point of madness. This portrait was the madam's treasure. She not only looked at it three times a day, but also held it to sleep.

Qin Huangyuan in the painting has a tall and straight figure, a face like a crown of jade, eyes hidden with cold stars, a black brocade robe, and a sword at his waist. His eyebrows are not only indifferent but also murderous, and he has an aura of calmness and self-power.

Xue Tang can feel the compelling aura through the portrait.

Xue Tang narrowed his eyes slightly.

He has a scholarly face, but his appearance of being a gentleman is deceiving. This man is not only murderous, but also violent.

It's a pity that the original owner only saw the skin superficially and fell in love at first sight and would not marry him.

But how could such a man marry a nymphomaniac and a vase? He doesn't seem to be controlled by others.

But what does this have to do with her!
She rolled up the portrait without any hesitation, picked up the book beside her and started reading.

……

After listening to the maid explain everything in detail, Wei Shengmiao subconsciously covered her heart, feeling scared again.

Xue Tang is so terrifying. She has gone beyond ordinary people's understanding of arrogance and domineering. She is simply a butcher and a scheming killer. She can actually take care of Duan Jingchu. How can this woman be so simple?

Wei Shengmiao touched her belly. She had underestimated the enemy before. Fortunately, the child was still there, otherwise she would have really lost her wife and lost her army.

Seeing that she looked unhappy, the maid quickly asked: "Do you want to call a doctor for your wife?"

Wei Shengmiao closed her eyes, calmed down, raised her hand, and said, "Go and invite the master over."

After waiting for about half a stick of incense, a man tightly covered by a cloak walked in.

After entering, he did not take off his cloak, but sat directly next to Wei Shengmiao.

"Didn't I tell you not to look for me at home easily?"

The man's voice was low, with obvious impatience.

Wei Shengmiao felt extremely wronged, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably, "Things didn't go well."

"How come? You can't even deal with a fool like Xue Tang?"

Hearing this, Wei Shengmiao felt even more aggrieved, "No, it's Xue Tang who has changed."

"The uncle and nephew of the Si family are coming back from their hometown in Pingyang." The man said in a low voice.

Wei Shengmiao just wanted to find some comfort. Unexpectedly, the man's news made her even more panicked, "Why so soon? Doesn't the filial piety period of the old lady of the Si family end in three months?"

The man's heart was not much calmer than that of Wei Shengmiao, "Qin Xiao and Qin Huangyuan have been missing for so long, which has a great impact on the court. His Majesty called Si Wei back to the capital to take over the position of chief assistant to stabilize the civil servants. At the same time, Si Wei was Qin Huangyuan's good friend. He also I can talk to the military commander. Si Fangyun and Si Wei will go home in a few days, so don't go to see me at home in the future."

Wei Shengmiao was covered in cold sweat, and her hands and feet were as cold as falling into an ice cave.

Si Fangyun is the first wife of the man in front of her, Yuan Weiming, the Minister of Household Affairs. She comes from a scholarly family of the Si family.

After five dynasties of Dajing, the Si family had three chief assistants and one Taifu. No matter which emperor changed, the Si family was still the first family. The current leader, Si Wei, was even more capable in both civil and military affairs. Si Wei is Si Fangyun's younger uncle.

The Minister of Household Affairs is a high-ranking official among ordinary people, but it is all thanks to the Si family that he is today.

Yuan Weiming raised many concubines outside, whether they were born as thin horses or as concubines from a small family, none of them escaped Si Fangyun's hands.

Wei Shengmiao is afraid of Si Fangyun because she is also one of the many foreign consorts in Yuan Weiming.

If Si Fangyun discovers her, not only will her child not be saved, but she will also be sold to a dark kiln just like the previous outhouses, and her life will be worse than death.

But if she can keep this child, Yuan Weiming can use the excuse of having an heir to take good care of their mother and son. If she is lucky and can survive Si Fangyun to death, for the sake of her child, she will definitely be able to join the family and become a noble concubine. .

As for blackmailing the Qin family, she came up with the idea after learning that Qin Huangyuan was missing.

On the one hand, she can get a lot of income, and on the other hand, by consolidating her relationship with Qin Huangyuan, she can slip out of Si Fangyun's hands and escape.

But she regrets it now. If she fails, she may die even worse. That poisonous woman Xue Tang is more terrifying than Si Fangyun.

Wei Shengmiao grabbed Yuan Weiming's robe with trembling hands and begged: "Send me away from the capital quickly. I will hide in some village and raise our children well."

Yuan Weiming said categorically: "Qin Huangyuan disappeared in the north. The plague is rampant there. It is impossible for him to come back alive. What are you afraid of? Besides, you came up with this idea, and it is a good idea." At this point, he felt inexplicable. He became irritated and pushed Wei Shengmiao's hand away, "You can't even deal with a Xue Tang, can you? If you can't even coax a fool, how will you be able to raise a child in the future? It's better to abort it as soon as possible now. .”

"No, I think something is wrong with Xue Tang."

Yuan Weiming took off his cloak and revealed a face full of calculations, "It's normal for Xue Tang to be wrong. She is either going crazy or on the way to going crazy. The more wrong she is, the less Si Fangyun will doubt us." .”

"She's crazy. She no longer smashes things or threatens to tear me apart. Instead, she kills pigs..."

Yuan Weiming smiled sarcastically, "What a big deal. The Qin family wants to save face. If Qin Shuanyuan cannot come back and you are convinced that you are pregnant with Qin Shuanyuan's flesh and blood, then the Qin family will do anything to protect Qin Shuanyuan's only child in your belly." Bloodline', I will not allow Xue Tang to hurt you. From now on, the entire Qin family will be yours."

"But she forced Qin Mingrui and Duan Jingchu to kill the pig in front of me."

"The Qin family's housekeeper and secret guards didn't care?"

Wei Shengmiao thought of what Xue Tang said about 'blood sausage', and her stomach turned. She forced herself to endure the discomfort, then wiped her tears and said, "Today she went to Jingzhao Mansion to beat Qin Mingrui and Duan Jingchu with a whip. The whip is so thick, if it hits me, your only son will be dead..."

The more Wei Shengmiao cried, the sadder she became.

She bet that Yuan Weiming would not leave her child alone. After all, Yuan Weiming had not had any children for three years since their marriage. Si Fangyun could not give birth. All the children outside had died in Si Fangyun's hands. The one in her belly was Yuan Weiming's only bloodline. .

Yuan Weiming's attitude softened a lot and said softly: "Okay, don't cry, it's not good for the child. Since Xue Tang hurt the second son of the Duan family, I will report this matter to Duan Jingchen and wait for the Duan family to come. Xue Tang no longer has the energy to deal with you."

Wei Shengmiao cried for a while, and coaxed Yuan Weiming to rest with her in a gentle voice.

Xue Tang put down the book in his hand, took a sip from the teacup, moistened his throat, raised his head, looked at the coachman, and asked, "Is that all?"

The driver nodded respectfully, "Yes!"

Xue Tang waved his hand and motioned the coachman to look at a large piece of paper on the table, "I drew a relationship diagram of the people in the capital as the maid said. Please help me take a look. If it's convenient, tell me the characteristics of some of the main characters."

The coachman paused, his expression a little complicated, but after a moment of silence he picked up his pen and helped make corrections.

Watching him revise and listening to his introduction, Xue Tang more and more confirmed his suspicion that this coachman was extraordinary.

After he finished changing, Xue Tang nodded, "Okay, Qin Lu, go down and rest."

The driver was startled. Only the general would remember his name. How did the lady know it?
At night, outside Qin Huangyuan's study, the secret guards gathered in a courtyard.

Qin Lu analyzed today's events one by one to all the secret guards.

"Today, Madam killed two birds with one stone by killing a pig. Not only did she teach the two young masters a lesson, she also shocked Wei Shengmiao and killed the pig to scare the monkeys."

"I originally thought that Madam was too lazy to pay attention to Wei Shengmiao, but I didn't expect that Madam had other plans. As Madam expected, the woman really had a backer. I was shocked when I saw that the person behind her was Yuan Weiming. "

Finally, Qin Lu did not forget to warn everyone, "Madam is really different. You should be more polite and careful to Madam in the future. The general has disappeared recently. I am sure many snakes and rats will take action. Please cheer me up." .”

Yes, he is the real leader of the secret guards.

After everyone dispersed, he looked at the stars in the sky, his thoughts drifting away.

Back then, he injured his vitals on the battlefield and could not have any children in this life, but it did not affect his ability to fight the enemy in battle. However, the general said that the ANBU needed him more. The general did not want a fire in the backyard so he sent him to follow his wife. He appeared to be a coachman, but in reality he was a car driver. Surveillance, and he has the power of life and death if his wife does something particularly outrageous.

He took out a secret letter, which contained some of his wife's recent words and deeds, as well as the butler's risking his life to suggest that the general divorce his wife. He was originally going to send it out tonight, but after thinking about Xue Tang's behavior today, he decided to wait. .
