Chapter 178: The Deadlock is Hard to Break, Love in Action
Ji Chuhe did not solve the problem all at once, nor did she bring the matter to the princess. Instead, she kept giving her opportunities to take action again, and she was forced to take action, leaving her with no other choice.
She thought she was in control.
Little did he know that he was walking step by step into the trap set by Ji Chuhe!
What scares her the most is that Ji Chuhe is so good at calculating human nature!
Even her father was so easily tricked, yet he still refused to repent!
How did Ji Chuhe know so many secrets about the Gao family?
She couldn't figure this out!
What made her even more desperate was that the days ahead would be worse than death!
How could her son defeat a woman like Ji Chuhe?
In the future, if he continues to covet the position of the crown prince, I am afraid that his fate will be as miserable as hers.
The more Gao Yun thought about it, the more desperate she became. She didn't even have the courage to live anymore.
However, her son was still young, and the only thing she couldn't bear to leave behind was her son.
Before I knew it, it was dawn.
Gao Yun's eyes were still open, but her look was empty and lifeless.
There was a sound of footsteps outside.
Next came the fawning voices of the two servants.
"Miss Qingyu, why are you here?"
"I came to see Miss Gao and brought some medicine for her injuries." Qingyu walked in. "I'll be here. You guys go do something else."
"Yes." Several people retreated immediately.
Based on County Magistrate Gao's attitude towards Qingyu, everyone in the Gao mansion was saying that Qingyu would become the mistress of the mansion, and everyone was vying to curry favor with her.
Gao Yun's gaze turned towards Qingyu, and suddenly a strong hatred surged up in her.
"Ms. Gao, are you okay? Did you have a good time last night?" Qingyu asked knowingly.
"Who are you anyway?"
"It seems that you really don't remember the woman who was bullied by Zhou Dahu."
"It's you!" Gao Yun was shocked. She could never have imagined that it would be such an insignificant little person!
Qingyu sat at the table and poured herself a glass of water.
"Originally, I had a peaceful and beautiful life. If it weren't for you, I might have married my beloved man, and we would have lived in an ordinary farmhouse. He would work in the fields, and I would clean the house, cook for him, and do the laundry. Life might have been hard, but it was also very happy. In another year, we might have a child, a boy or a girl, and the yard would often be filled with the laughter of our family of three."
After Qingyu's voice fell, the room became eerily silent.
She drank a cup of tea and looked at Gao Yun with deep hatred.
"It's all because of you. My life has been completely ruined! The only thing I've wanted to do since I was alive is to seek revenge on you! And your son, I want you to pay for your blood debt with blood!"
"Just come after me. I planned everything. It has nothing to do with my son."
"Do you think I will believe you? You will all pay the price!"
"I've been imprisoned and toyed with and defiled. What else do you want?"
"This is just the beginning!" Qingyu showed a sinister smile.
Gao Yun finally knows Qingyu's identity.
But what's the point?
Her smug father wouldn't listen to a word she said now!
……
Wangfu.
Ji Chuhe and the princess were invited over by Concubine Xu early in the morning.
There was no time to salute.
Concubine Xu picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it at their feet.
"You want to force me to death, don't you? My farm was burned down, my nephew's son died, and my niece was beaten half to death! Are you coming for me? Next, are you going to kill me?"
"My Queen, the burning of Zhuangzi was an accident. You should know better than anyone what kind of person Xu Gui is. He did not die unjustly. As for Xu Yan'er, it was her own fault!" The princess stated calmly.
The relationship has already been torn apart, there is nothing to worry about.
Say anything.
People like Concubine Xu will not listen to any kind advice.
Concubine Xu was so choked that she couldn't speak.
She didn't know that Gao Yun had arranged to assassinate Ji Chuhe.
All we know is that Gao Yun suddenly left the palace and was divorced!
She was angry and scared.
What makes me angry is that the princess and Ji Chuhe have absolute power in Huaiyang!
What I'm afraid of is that they will deal with her next.
"Even if the Concubine hadn't asked me to come today, I would have come anyway. After the manor was burned down, the people in the manor are still staying in the tenants' homes. The Concubine wants to rebuild the manor as soon as possible."
Concubine Xu frowned.
Let her rebuild the village herself.
That’s not a small sum of money!
Why should she pay?
"Why did the manor burn down? It was fine when Ji Chuhe was not there, but it burned down as soon as she went there. This is her fault!"
"The Concubine should be thankful that no one was injured or killed on the farm, otherwise it would not be as simple as rebuilding the farm."
"I don't have the money to repair it!" Concubine Xu refused to admit it.
You want her to be a scapegoat? No way!
Ji Chuhe walked slowly forward and handed a receipt to Concubine Xu.
"what is this?"
"This is the daily expenses that the people of the farm have to pay to the tenants when they live in their houses. You have to pay rent when you live in someone else's house, right? They are all other people who do the eating, drinking, and defecating, so you have to pay for it, right? Not much, only five cents of silver per household per day, and there are ten households in total."
"Five cents! Ten households! One day!" Concubine Xu's voice rose several degrees.
"I have already put the money into the account of the Concubine Dowager." Ji Chuhe gave Concubine Xu another heavy blow.
Concubine Xu understood now.
If she doesn't repair the farm, then she will continue to pay out this money!
Anyway, she can't get any benefit at all!
She has no way to resist!
After all, your life and property are now in the hands of others.
"Find someone to fix it as soon as possible! The money will be deducted from my account." Concubine Xu compromised.
"Yes, Her Majesty." Ji Chuhe responded softly.
"If there is nothing else, we will take our leave first." The princess did not want to stay any longer.
Concubine Xu immediately waved her hand, signaling the two to leave quickly!
It would be better for her to see these two people less often in the future.
She was afraid that if she saw him every time, she would lose a few days of her life! No, she would lose a few months of her life!
……
Ji Chuhe and the princess came to the garden.
Many flowers in the garden have bloomed.
"He'er, this is for you." The princess took out the green jade pendant with Pisces from her body.
"Mother, what is this?"
"You embroidered a purse for your father as a thank you gift."
Ji Chuhe saw the dragon scale pattern on the jade pendant and realized that it must have come from the imperial palace.
"Mother, I cannot accept such an expensive gift."
"This was given to your father by the late emperor. He gave it to you as a token of his thoughtfulness. You should accept it." The princess directly pointed out who the jade pendant was.
It was actually given by the late emperor!
"Mother, I really..."
"He'er." The princess held Ji Chuhe's hand, "I know you didn't accept it because you knew the importance of this jade pendant. I insisted on giving it to you precisely because of the importance of this jade pendant."
Ji Chuhe didn't quite understand what the princess meant.
