On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent
Chapter 17 The authorities are obsessed with it
After coming out of Lin's room, he asked the maid about Lin's daily situation, paid his respects to Princess Huaining, and then went back.
After returning to the Jiang Mansion, Jiang Nian ate something and then sat quietly, staring out the window in a daze.
Baozhu knew that the girl had gone to see the lady today and was probably talking about sad things again, so she was in a bad mood. She just stayed by her side without saying a word.
It wasn't until it got dark and food was delivered from the main kitchen that there was movement.
While eating, he asked Baozhu: "There is a concubine Liu in the mansion, do you know?"
"I know. I heard that Madam Liu has always been a secluded woman, rarely going to the front yard, and usually doesn't interact much with the people in the mansion. I only heard about her from the housekeeper when I first entered the mansion, but I have never seen her."
Jiang Dechang valued his reputation very much. In order to appear virtuous, he did not have many concubines in his house, and there were only two including Feng.
But when the Jiang family moved to the capital, at least eight or nine out of ten people were left behind in Suiyang by Jiang Dechang.
Aunt Liu is about the same age as Feng, but she is more beautiful than Feng and is deeply loved by Jiang Dechang.
That year, Concubine Liu got pregnant but lost the baby, and she rarely went out after that.
Like her mother, she has been a invisible person in the mansion for so many years.
But Liu was better off than her mother, at least she had no worries about food and clothing.
In her previous life, Aunt Liu always believed that it was Lin who killed her child. After Lin entered the Buddhist temple, she was happy for a long time.
Later, he teamed up with Jiang Mingyuan to make the entire Jiang family restless.
Thinking of how proud Liu was in front of her in her previous life, Jiang Nian felt a headache.
Everything is blamed on her, and she is the most innocent one.
The next day, Jiang Nian came out of Qingfangyuan early in the morning and went to the backyard.
There is a small pond in the backyard of the Jiang family. Behind the pond is a rockery. The dead child of Aunt Liu was quietly buried there.
Ever since the child died, Aunt Liu has been coming here to sit for a while every day.
Jiang Nian turned around a rockery and saw someone sitting not far away.
As I walked over quietly, I heard Aunt Liu muttering something. Next to her was a small mound of earth with flowers and plants growing on it. No one knew that a dead baby was buried underneath.
Jiang Nian walked over slowly and said calmly, "Even though you've kept it a secret for so many years, do you really think no one knows?"
Liu's heart skipped a beat and she turned her head sharply. When she saw Jiang Nian's face, her expression changed drastically.
"You...what do you mean?"
"You should know exactly what I mean." He lowered his head and looked at the small mound. "If you come here every day like this and someone finds out, have you considered the consequences?"
Liu turned around and said, "I don't know what the eldest lady is talking about."
Liu really recognized her.
"Auntie has hatred in her heart, but who is this hatred directed at?"
A hint of coldness flashed in Liu's lowered eyes, naturally directed at the person who killed her child!
"If Auntie is willing, I can take my brother, whom I have never met, out for burial, and even go to the temple to pray for his soul."
Aunt Liu's body stiffened, and she looked at Jiang Nian in disbelief with a complicated expression.
Jiang Nian smiled and said, "Aunt, there's no need to look at me like that. I have no grudge against you, so I can still help you with this."
Liu's family was in Suiyang, and she had no roots or foundation in the capital, not even a single friend.
The reason why the child is buried here is because no one has taken care of him for so many years.
When her child died, the maid felt it was bad luck and wanted to throw the child into a dirty place.
She begged him repeatedly before the child was returned to her and finally buried quietly here.
Didn't she wish to take the child away and bury him properly?
But in this family? Who would be so kind?
At this point, Liu simply stopped pretending and sneered, "I've been hiding it for so many years, and you still found out. No wonder the Jiang family doesn't like you and your daughter. You deserve it."
Jiang Nian was not angry either, and said in a deep voice: "Auntie, do you still think that your child was killed by my mother?"
"Who else could it be if not her?" Liu Nianyi suddenly shouted.
She had a miscarriage because she drank the soup sent by Lin.
Lin was very kind to the concubines in the mansion, so Liu had no doubts about the soup she sent. But who would have thought that after she drank it that day, she would have her spotting in the evening.
Jiang Nian sighed, "Auntie, you're so smart, but you can't even see through such a trick? If it was really my mother who did it, how could she harm you so openly? Don't you know what kind of person my mother is after all these years?"
Back then in the mansion, Lin and Liu were the best friends because both of them had no feelings for Jiang Dechang and just wanted to live a stable life.
So after Liu had a miscarriage, she hated Lin even more.
"Auntie, you are the one who is most confused. Your child is gone, so who is the biggest beneficiary? Who has been living under you for all these years? Can't you see it?"
"Back then, Feng and the concubine became pregnant one after another. The concubine was beautiful and deeply loved by her father. Feng was afraid that the concubine would give birth to a son who would surpass her, so she put medicine in the tonic soup that the concubine drank every day. Although the dosage was not strong, it was too much to bear every day. Not long after the concubine had a miscarriage, the maidservant by her side was murdered by a villain while she was out. Is that true or not?"
Liu suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. "How...how did you know?"
"How I know is not important. What is important is that the maidservant of my aunt did not die accidentally. She was silenced by Feng Shi."
The head maidservant beside Concubine Liu had been bribed by Feng a long time ago. After the task was accomplished, she was useless and naturally could not be kept.
"Auntie, Feng is the murderer who killed your child. For so many years, you have hated the wrong person..."
Liu was also a poor person. She was used by Jiang Mingyuan back then and thought she had taken revenge, but she didn't know that there was a Feng waiting for her behind her.
These things were told to her by the Jiang family in her previous life.
She was about to die at that time, and the Jiang family did not hide anything and told her everything. If it weren't for the cup of poisoned wine and the sword, she might have been angered to death.
"Auntie, you can think about it carefully. If you figure it out, come to me."
Jiang Nian turned and left. When he walked a long way, he looked back and saw Liu still standing there in a daze.
Maybe she didn't want to believe it, but it was the fact and she had no choice but to believe it.
It won't be long before Jiang Mingyuan comes to find her, and then she will believe his lies.
After returning to Qingfang Courtyard, not long after I sat down, Baozhu came in and reported: "Miss, the eldest master is here."
As he was speaking, Jiang Mingyuan walked in.
With a smile on his face, he said, "There's a polo match on the outskirts of the city today. Do you want to play?"
"Only polo?"
"Of course not. You can also fly kites and play pot-shooting. If you want, you can even ride a horse."
You know what, Jiang Nian was indeed interested.
I had a miserable life in my previous life, so I should have fun in this one.
Although she knew that Jiang Mingyuan would not be so kind, it did not affect her going out for a walk.
"Go, and bring your sister along. It would be too boring just for the two of us."
Jiang Mingyuan wanted to say something, but Jiang Nian curled his lips and said, "If my sister doesn't go, I won't go either."
Jiang Mingyuan was at a loss, and then he remembered that Jiang Nian had been wronged last time, so he did not refute and immediately sent someone to inform Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian dressed up and wrote something on a piece of paper and handed it to Baozhu: "Give this to..."
When Baozhu heard this, her eyes widened: "This...this is not good, right?"
"What's wrong? Go quickly before it's too late."
