Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan
Chapter 259: Salvation and the Qi Family Tragedy
Seeing that Yixiu was not impressed, the Fourth Prince resumed his previous affectionate attitude. He held Yixiu's hand and said sincerely, "I'll have to trouble you, Xiaoyi, to take care of Yuebin. Shilan is jealous, so I can't take care of Yuebin too much, so Xiaoyi has to do it."
Yixiu scoffed at this argument. If it's not okay in public, then it's not okay in secret? If you don't care, just say you don't care. Why do you have to make yourself sound so helpless? Moreover, if Yixiu protected Qi Yuebin, wouldn't that mean she was going against Nian Shilan?
But this also suits Yixiu's mind. Nian Shilan will only become more arrogant in the future. Yixiu doesn't want to compromise herself for the sake of her reputation as a virtuous woman. It's also good to go against Nian Shilan. Of course, this also suits the Fourth Prince's mind. If the backyard is not harmonious, it will make the Fourth Prince feel at ease!
Thinking of this, Yixiu answered sympathetically, "Sister Qi has been wronged, and this is what I should do."
After resolving this matter, the Fourth Prince brought up the matter of Guaerjia again, "Guaerjia passed away just like that. Did she say anything to Xiaoyi before she died?" Even though the Fourth Prince already knew the whole story, he still suspected that Guaerjia said something she shouldn't have said when they were alone with Yixiu.
Yixiu said with regret, "When Princess Guaerjia saw me coming, she said a lot of unpleasant things. I thought she would not admit it, but I didn't expect her to admit it so readily. She said it was out of jealousy towards my younger sister Nian. I wanted to wait for you to come back and deal with her, but I didn't expect Princess Guaerjia to commit suicide that night." At this point, Yixiu couldn't help but sigh.
Yixiu said with annoyance, "If I had been more cautious, this matter would not have ended in vain."
The Fourth Prince was almost sweating profusely. Why did he want Guaerjia to die immediately after being exposed? Wasn't it because he was afraid that someone would notice something was wrong? Yixiu had a face-to-face encounter with Guaerjia, and the Fourth Prince was already very worried, not to mention letting Guaerjia live for a few more days. He was not a smart person, and he didn't know how many loopholes would appear if he kept her alive for a day.
Thinking of this, the Fourth Prince began to try to change the subject, "Guaerjia's death is not a pity. She killed Shilan's child and indirectly killed Yuebin's child. It's unlucky to mention such a person. Let's not talk about it anymore."
Yixiu sighed at the shamelessness of the Fourth Prince. If we talk about dogs, you are the best dog! You never mentioned anything about the things you instigated behind the scenes! Okay, since we are not allowed to talk about Guaerjia, let's talk about the children.
Feeling disgusted by the Fourth Prince, Yixiu said seemingly unintentionally, "The prince's family has few offspring, and Guaerjia actually killed the prince's two children because of a dispute of pride. I am really heartbroken." Did you hear that, Lao Deng, stop calling them Nian Shilan's children and Qi Yuebin's children all the time, they are all your children.
The Fourth Prince's face was stiff. Yixiu had finally touched his sore spot. Although he was prepared to lose the baby in Nian Shilan's belly, he never expected to lose another child. Even though the Fourth Prince didn't want Qi Yuebin to give birth to this child, and was even relieved by the death of this child, he still felt the pain of being deliberately ignored. That was his child!
Yixiu noticed the pain of the Fourth Prince and thought, why didn’t you do that before? Even if you regret it, you won’t change the original plan, right?
Yixiu continued, "These two children are pitiful. Sister Nian's fetus is already formed and she still has a baby, but Sister Qi's is just a pool of blood." What can a baby of more than one month old have? It's like a fertilized egg that was broken when it still had yolk and egg white inside.
The Fourth Prince seemed to have returned to the day when Song Zhi took the baby out of the delivery room. He did not even dare to lift the cloth to take a look at the baby's facial features. He only heard reports from Qi Yuebin that there was still blood on the place where Qi Yuebin fell and was force-fed safflower, and it could not be washed away. Was that also a part of the child lingering there?
"These two children were reincarnated into the palace, but died in a miserable and pitiful way. Xiaoyi, please ask a shaman to perform a ritual to pray for the children!" The Fourth Prince said, still unable to resist the guilt in his heart.
After hearing this, Yixiu also felt it was boring. In the whole thing, the most innocent and pitiful ones were the two unborn children, so she promised the Fourth Prince, "We will perform a ritual to help the children's souls to be reborn, so that they don't have to linger in the mortal world and can return to reincarnation as soon as possible." But next time, don't be reborn into the royal family, as this royal family is really not a good place.
After being secretly teased by Yixiu several times, the Fourth Prince no longer wanted to reminisce with Yixiu and they parted ways directly. Yixiu returned to her own Xili Courtyard, and the Fourth Prince stayed in the front yard.
However, Nian Shilan had been appeased, but no one asked about Qi Yuebin. Nian Shilan no longer interfered with the supervision of Wangshu Pavilion, and Yixiu was willing to relax. Qi Yuebin was still able to find out the news in the palace, such as the Fourth Prince returning home after completing his official duties, and the Fourth Prince and Yixiu going to visit Nian Shilan hand in hand.
Qi Yuebin panted and propped up his upper body, and asked Jixiang hopefully, "Is the prince coming this way?"
After receiving the auspicious silence, Qi Yuebin fell back into the quilt, a bitter tear flowed from Qi Yuebin's desperate eyes, "How could the prince do this to me?"
It seems like just yesterday that she and the Fourth Prince were in love with each other, but today the man beside her has revealed his true cold and ruthless face. How can Qi Yuebin bear this?
Qi Yuebin was smart, but he never thought that the Fourth Prince would just use him and throw him away. He had been fighting with Nian Shilan to the death for him! He even caused the Qi family to be targeted by the Nian family, but what about the Fourth Prince? He pretended to know nothing and never showed up again.
Qi Yuebin was breathing heavily. She held Jixiang's hand and asked, "Is everything okay in the Qi Mansion?"
Jixiang could no longer hold back his grief, and cried, "The Madam sent a letter saying that the master was greedy for merit and took the Qi clan members from the northwest to ambush the enemy, but unfortunately fell into a trap..."
Qi Yuebin was struck by lightning. She pulled back the strength in her hands and asked pleadingly, "Someone survived, right?"
Jixiang shook his head bitterly, "General Nian even reported this to the master, saying that if he hadn't been trying to gain military merit, there wouldn't have been such a tragedy. Now this is the master's own fault, and because of this, our son didn't even get a posthumous title."
The ancients regarded death as life and attached great importance to posthumous glory. Members of the Qi family died on the battlefield, but because of Nian Gengyao's false accusations, they could not even hold a big event after their death. How could Qi Yuebin bear such humiliation?
Under such stimulation, Qi Yue spat out a mouthful of blood. She said bitterly, "Nian family, Nian Shilan, I, Qi Yuebin, will not let you go even if I become a ghost."
