The tool man in the psychic cool article has awakened

The performances of Bai Zhan and Qin Jinyuan were nothing but honesty, so they were transferred to the third lady's yard to do chores.

Xia Gaofeng sold the outer room called Yuehua, and brought the child back to Lu Xiniang to raise.Although Lu Xiniang was very disappointed that her husband had kept the outside room from her, but she was kind and gentle by nature, and she couldn't do anything to anger two innocent children.

Coupled with the fact that she has been married for ten years and has no children, it is very likely that she will never have any more children in this life. These two children will be her children in the future. After Lu Xiniang accepts the reality, she plans to raise her well, and she will never have any more children in the future. Difficulty everywhere.

The two children are young, in order to prevent the children from bumping into each other and getting hurt while playing, Lu Xiniang planned to rearrange and rebuild the yard, remove all kinds of sharp decorations, put a fence around the lotus pond, etc. Bai Zhan and Qin Jinyuan came here to do it. These.

After the two arrived in the yard here, nothing special happened every day except for work.

However, after a period of observation, Bai Zhan found that the third wife was really good-natured, she was really the kind of elegant lady described in the book, knowledgeable, gentle, and even more kind to maids and servants.

Knowing that these short-term workers in the mansion are from poor families, they either ask the kitchen to make more food when cooking, so that everyone can take home the unfinished food, or they often find excuses to reward them, and they still care about everyone's dignity while helping.

It makes people feel very comfortable, and will not feel inferior because of these charity, she is really a smart woman.

And Lu Xiniang's favorite thing to do every day is to lean in the yard and read a book. She is quiet and bookish, as gentle as water, like a pleasing picture of a lady.

It has to be said that it is really a great blessing that this Xia Mansion can marry such a woman.

And Lu Xiniang is a very talented person.

Bai Zhan found out that Xia Gaofeng was a Jieyuan, and he often asked his wife for advice. The two of them explained one by one and listened while the other pondered. It can be seen that Lu Xiniang's talent and learning are better than Xia Gaofeng's.

From the information revealed by chatting with the capable maidservants around Lu Xiniang, this is indeed the case.

It is said that when Lu Xiniang was in the capital, she disguised herself as a man and went to a scholar's banquet. At the banquet, she fought against the Confucian scholars and argued with her talents. A group of students clapped her hands and praised her.

But later, her daughter's identity was exposed. Although she was known as a talent, she was often criticized for it, and jealous people commented that she was too out of line.

It was precisely because of these rumors that Lu Xiniang came to Yongcheng to relax and hide from the limelight, and thus met her current husband Xia Gaofeng...

"If it's a woman, she can take the imperial examination. My young lady must be the No. [-] female scholar!" One of Lu Xiniang's dowry maids showed off.

It can be seen that Lu Xiniang is intelligent.

The days passed like this day by day, calm as water.

Until one day bad news came from the capital, something happened to the Lu family. Lu Xiniang's uncle was suspected of collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country.

"No, my Lu family has been loyal to the royal family for generations, and has passed on the fragrance of books. How can I do such infidelity and unrighteous things as collaborating with the enemy and treason? My uncle was wronged, and the Lu family was wronged..."

When Lu Xiniang heard the news, she didn't believe that her natal family would do such a thing, and she was hit hard.

Xia Gaofeng has always been a perfect husband, so he naturally comforted him at this moment, "Don't cry, Xi Niang is just in prison. The matter has not yet been settled. The Lu family has always been loyal to the emperor and patriotic. Dali Temple will definitely investigate and return the Lu family justice."

"That's right, Xi Niang, the matter is not yet settled, don't worry, pay attention to your body, we'll go find out the news."

The rest of the Xia family also persuaded and comforted them.

Lu Xiniang was in a better mood, and her comfort to the people of the Xia family was very heartwarming. Although the Xia family had many problems, there were usually a lot of trivial troubles, but they were all trivial things. When they saw people's hearts at critical times, they treated her like a close relative.

She was so moved that she didn't notice the jumping look in her eyes as she hugged her husband.

……

Bai Zhan also heard about the accident at Lu Xi's mother's family.

To be precise, this matter is not limited to him, it should be the entire Xia Mansion, the entire Yongcheng people know that collaborating with the enemy and treason is a serious crime, the people are talking about it, and all kinds of rumors are flying everywhere.

Bai Zhan felt something was wrong, "Is this news spread a little too fast? It's not at the foot of the capital, it only took a few days, and it spread like this..."

In ancient times, there was no Internet like modern times. If it is not deliberate, the speed of news transmission is very slow.

When Lu Xiniang heard the rumors outside, her mood became even worse, and she shed tears all day long.

In order to make her happy, Xia Gaofeng called the servants of the family together, severely punished those who broke their mouths in front of everyone, and then persuaded Lu Xiniang to live in Yunlin Temple for a few days on the grounds of relaxation, so as not to be angry again arrive.

"The matter is too big. Before the results of the Dali Temple review come out, the rumors outside cannot be stopped. Yunlin Temple is a Buddhist place, quiet and quiet, with beautiful mountains and rivers. My wife will live there for a few days. Not only will my ears be quiet, but I will also be happy." Take care of your body. For the news from the capital city, I will help my wife find out where to go, so don’t worry, my wife..."

Xia Gaofeng's face was full of affection and love for his wife, which made Lu Xiniang very moved again.

Lu Xiniang listened to her husband's persuasion, and took the two children to Yunlin Temple to hide for peace the next day.

By the time the two of Bai Zhan knew about it, everything had settled down, and Mrs. Lu Xi had left.However, Lu Xiniang was worried about her natal family, so even though she trusted her husband, she still kept two cronies of the servant girls in the mansion to guard her.

Lu Xiniang has four powerful maids by her side, named: Linglong, Fuyao, Hongzao, and Dongcui.

Among them, Linglong and Fuyao were dowry maids; Hongzao and Dongcui were promoted by Lu Xiniang in Xiafu after they got married.It's about the safety of her natal family, so the two remaining are naturally Linglong and Fuyao, the two dowry maids. After all, they are the most trusted natal family's children, and their own abilities are better.

That's how things settled.

After Lu Xiniang left, Xia Mansion was peaceful. Xia Gaofeng went out early and returned late every day, so busy that he was out of breath and lost a lot of weight.

The maids and servants in the mansion saw it, and couldn't help but comment that the third son was really kind to his wife, and that the Lu family committed a serious crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. At this time, no one else could hide, but the third son rushed to help his wife find out walk around.

But... is this really the case?

Bai Zhan didn't know what Xia Gaofeng was doing when he went out every day, but he saw that after Xia Gaofeng came back every day, he was singing and singing every night, with a beauty in his arms, very chic.And the accompanying beauties are none other than Linglong and Fuyao, the two dowry maids.

The case of the Lu family has never been resolved.

Lu Xiniang lived in Yunlin Temple for almost a month, but couldn't sit still and ran back.

Just a few days after Lu Xiniang came back, Bai Zhan and other day laborers were notified, saying that the mansion has been in short supply recently and needs to increase income and reduce expenditure. They are not going to hire these day laborers for the time being, and they will be dismissed.

The steward sighed,

"...This incident was really sudden. I'm really sorry for everyone. Recently, a lot of things have happened in the mansion, and a lot of money has been spent. I really can't make it work, and I can't afford to invite so many people for the time being. But you all did it in the Xia mansion. I know the character of the old man who has been around for a long time, and after the house is relieved, if he still needs to ask for work, I will definitely notify you as soon as possible."

In ancient times, hierarchies were strict, and the main family generally hired workers as they wanted, and resigned as they wanted, without giving any reason at all.But in order to win people's hearts and make the servants work more faithfully and diligently, most of the masters will not really be unreasonable.

In particular, the Xia family's mansion in the name of kindness pays more attention to reputation, and treats workers and servants with extra human kindness.

It's not difficult to guess what happened to Xia's mansion recently, and it's nothing more than to inquire about Lu Xiniang's natal relationship.The dismissed part-time workers understood, but many of them still felt very uncomfortable and complained a little bit about the third wife.

Most people are selfish when it comes to their own interests. Those who come out to do part-time jobs are from poor families. After losing this source of income, life will be very difficult until they find another part-time job. Impossible without complaining.

"Really, what did the Lu family do wrong? Now it's over. We will be implicated in our irrelevant relationship. My family relies on this part-time job for a living. If I can't find another family soon, what can I do? live..."

"Me too. It was too sudden and I didn't have any preparations for my family to rely on this salary for food."

"Okay, okay, didn't the housekeeper say that when the mansion is loose, the hired worker will be the first to call us, and we can come back later. The third lady is very nice, and the Lu family is also a clean family. It must be a misunderstanding, maybe it is very Find out and solve it soon, otherwise, would the Xia Mansion dare to interfere? It must not be serious..."

"That's right, that's right, let's hurry up and find other jobs first, and we'll definitely come back soon."

The owner's family is in trouble, and the matter is a foregone conclusion. No matter what the resigned day laborers think, they still have to leave with their burdens on their backs.However, everyone still held the idea of ​​coming back after a while, after all, the treatment in Xia Mansion was too good.

Bai Zhan and Qin Jinyuan were also dismissed.

After walking out of the Xia mansion, Bai Zhan looked at Qin Jinyuan, "Why do I feel that something is wrong? Yesterday I heard that Master Xia Er spent hundreds of taels of money fighting with others in the brothel, and today he is so poor that The point of quitting the day laborer?"

"Go back and have a look at night."

Qin Jinyuan knew better what would happen if a rich family really lacked money. The current state of the Xia Mansion was obviously not right.

Especially during the time when Lu Xiniang was away, Xia Gaofeng actually had an affair with his wife's dowry maid. With such a character, can he really run for the affairs of the Lu family?Obviously unlikely.

Unable to stay in the Xia Mansion in a fair manner, the two of them became Night Walkers, sneaking into the Xia Mansion at night.

Things did not go as they expected, the Xia Mansion started to make troubles.

*******

A few days after resigning, Bai Zhan and Qin Jinyuan were in Master Xia's study and overheard the conversation between Master Xia and Third Young Master Xia.

Master Xia: "Third son, are we really going to do this? Xi Niang has been married to our family all these years, and she has always abided by her duty and managed the family well. If it weren't for Xi Niang, you wouldn't have the knowledge you have today. We To treat her like this, yes, isn't it too extreme..."

Xia Gaofeng: "Father, I know that I am sorry for Xi Niang, but I am not a poisonous husband. This is our Xia family's opportunity. Besides, father, if you say these things now, why did you force me to marry her?"

Master Xia: "Third son, Dad is also doing it for your own good. Xi Niang is the best candidate for his wife no matter in terms of talent, looks, or natal background. That Yuehua is just a brothel girl, how can she enter our house?"

Xia Gaofeng: "Yuehua is not a brothel girl! If Dad was willing to help, Yuehua would not have lost her family and lived in prostitution. Yuehua also gave birth to two children for me, I can't let Yuehua down..."

"Father, you always say that Xi Niang is good, but as a man, my son has to rely on his wife's dowry to live, and he even needs to be taught by her. Everyone compliments on the surface, but who doesn't talk about my soft food behind my back? Dad, these years , do you really think that I am living a happy life? Do you know how breathless I am when I face Xi Niang every day?"

"What's more, Xi Niang can't have children, and she doesn't allow me to take concubines, so that I have no offspring. This is the way she loves me? If it weren't for you, or the Lu family who bullied others, I would never have been with her. marriage."

"I'm sorry for Xi Niang, but she is not as kind as she appears on the surface. If you want to blame now, you can blame her for being unlucky. If anything happens to her natal family, then don't blame me for taking advantage of it!"

Master Xia: "Oh, that's all, that's all, it's all evil fate."

"..."

Afterwards, Bai Zhan and Qin Jinyuan were speeding all the way, and saw Xia Gaofeng went out to meet a stranger, so they asked people to contact two big men who had been resigned as part-time workers, and asked the other party to return home the day after tomorrow to attack Lu Xiniang under the pretext of being dissatisfied with their resignation. , and then took the opportunity to overturn the decorations in the room, exposing the "evidence" of the Lu family, and framing her!

The Xia family is planning to take advantage of the Lu family's incident to turn to the Lu family's political opponents to rebel. While bringing down the Lu family and Lu Xiniang, they will build a road to Qingyun, killing two birds with one stone.

Bai Zhan was shocked.

Ever since he knew the true face of the Xia family's hypocrisy, he expected that this Xia Gaofeng would probably do something to his first wife sooner or later, but he really didn't expect that this person would be so cruel and merciless that he would kill his wife and family.

"The reputation of the Xia family has been in business for many years. It can be seen that they care about feathers. After all, they are related to the Lu family. If they are not ruthless, they will inevitably be implicated in the affairs of the Lu family. Xia Gaofeng has no place in Lu Xiniang's heart. He persecutes, he bears the burden of humiliation, regards Lu Xi Niang as an enemy, naturally he will not be polite when he strikes..."

Qin Jinyuan commented, "What's more, Xia Gaofeng is not very decent."

But if Xia Gaofeng has a little conscience and wants to get rid of his wife, he would not think of using such a sinister method, just reconciling directly.

"The third young master of the Xia family is really acting up and down. He said that his father is persecuting and the Lu family is oppressing others. If he really doesn't want to marry Lu Xiniang, he really has the backbone. Why should he act as the perfect husband for so many years? The Lu family's brain is broken, and they spend money and effort to force him to eat soft food? He is the only man in the world."

Bai Zhan was going to be disgusted, this Xia Gaofeng was a bastard who set up a memorial archway after being a bitch.

He was almost unable to eat due to the behavior of the Xia family, he would feel bad if he couldn't eat, and if he was in a bad mood, those who made him feel bad would not feel good either.

Bai Zhan was so disgusted that he almost forgot that there was an illusion in front of him, so he immediately wrote another note and threw it into Lu Xiniang's hands.

Lu Xiniang is a smart and reasonable woman, even if she loves Xia Gaofeng badly, but at this moment when it comes to the life and death of her mother's family, she will definitely find a way to resolve it if she doesn't know how to be in love and help others.

They are just passers-by, and it is not convenient to show up and intervene. They can only give some hints and help, which is really embarrassing.

……

Bai Zhan thought about telling Lu Xiniang the truth. With Lu Xiniang's cleverness, he could have arranged in advance to avoid disaster.

But he really underestimated Xia Gaofeng's cruelty and shamelessness.

There is a saying that there is nothing wrong with wanting to commit a crime. Xia Gaofeng failed to arrange for the "criminal evidence" to be smashed. Xia Gaofeng simply slandered and ran to the Yamen with the entire Xia Mansion to testify. A traitor, a person who delivers letters and news.

Xia Gaofeng said, "...my lord, although I have been husband and wife with Xi Niang for ten years and have a deep relationship, this matter is deeply involved. It is related to the safety of my dynasty and the country. Xia really can't hide it with conscience, and I, I don't know My lady married me with such a rebellious purpose, she secretly kept Chen Cang in contact with the enemy country, Xia is sorry for His Majesty, I am sorry for everyone..."

The testimony of the two dowry maids, Linglong and Fuyao, was like the last straw.

Linglong said, "Return, my lord, we really don't know these things. Although we were surprised at the beginning that there are so many outstanding young masters in the capital, why did the lady fall in love with Mr. Xia, but the lady said that she really likes him. We are maids, so naturally we wouldn't Thinking about it. We really didn't know that Miss married to Yongcheng for such a rebellious thing, please enlighten me..."

Fuyao said: "Miss does go out for outings every once in a while, and likes to buy things from Hu Man. Thinking about it, Miss contacted Hu Man at that time..."

The husband's family and the dowry maid all testified in this way. Although there is no definite evidence for the time being, the logic of the confession is all correct.

In addition, Lu Xiniang is still the granddaughter of the direct line of the Lu family, no matter whether it is true or not, it is impossible to get away easily.

The county magistrate is unable to preside over the trial and investigation when it comes to major matters such as collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, so he immediately made a decision, "Prison Lu Xiniang, send her to the capital, and hand it over to Dali Temple for investigation."

The matter developed too quickly, and Lu Xiniang couldn't argue with her grievances.

She looked at her husband and the dowry maid, she was going crazy,

"Why do you want to wrong me! Xia Gaofeng, you and I have been husband and wife for ten years, I am sorry for you, why do you treat me like this, why do you make trouble for my Lu family, where is your conscience?"

"Linglong, Fuyao, you are the sons and daughters of my Lu family, and I treat you like my own sisters. What good will it do you if the Lu family is defeated? Your parents and brothers are also in the Lu family. You betrayed me and the Lu family so much. , wolf-hearted, in vain for human beings!"

Lu Xiniang, who has always been gentle and virtuous, yelled and cursed for the first time.

She couldn't believe that her husband who had been in love with her for ten years was not only unfaithful to her, but even worse, he was so vicious that he killed hundreds of her family members;

She also couldn't believe that the maid who had the same love as her sister not only seduced her husband, but also became rich and powerful, colluded with others, and betrayed her master's family...

The Xia family and the dowry maid testified that Lu Xi Niang was finally sent to Dali Temple in the capital.

The matter of the Lu family collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country was originally a frame-up, and the case has never been resolved. It is because the Lu family refused to admit it, and the evidence produced by the framer is not tenable. With the help of Lu family friends, the case has not been settled for a long time.

But now, Lu Xiniang, a married woman of the direct line, has become the best breakthrough.

With the testimony of the Xia family and the dowry maid, as well as the manipulation of the people behind it, Lu Xiniang became the key to confirming that the Lu family was collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.

"...Lu Xiniang is a well-known talented girl in the capital. She is smart and beautiful, and she has sought countless favors from others, but she chose the Xia family, which is an ordinary family in Yongcheng. Son, this is doubt two;"

"...Every time Lu Xiniang goes out for an outing and buys things from a Hu merchant, I will suffer a big loss at the hands of Hu Man. Hu Man seems to have predicted the opportunity with the help of a god. This is too much of a coincidence. This is doubt three ;besides……"

Still the same sentence, there is nothing wrong with wanting to add a crime.

No matter how the Lu family and Lu Xiniang argue, if someone insists on convicting them, it will be useless to say more.

However, in just half a month, the Lu family's treason case, which had been making no progress, was settled just like that. Collaboration with the enemy and betraying the country is unforgivable. Five members of the Lu family, including children, women and children, were killed.

The news came out and shocked the world.

The people couldn't believe that the Lu family, which is known as a clean and honest family, would do such a rebellious thing.

Although the Xia family was related by marriage to the Lu family, not only was it not implicated due to their meritorious deeds in destroying their relatives, but they were also rewarded by the court.

Even before the case was settled and Lu Xiniang was still alive, Xia Gaofeng quietly took Yuehua to Xia's house, and shamelessly messed around with others on the bed in the room where Lu Xiniang used to live, to celebrate finally getting rid of the shadow of his wife...

The two whispered on the bed.

Yuehua is delicate and soft, "Feng Lang, for the sake of me and the child, if you treat my sister like this, I am afraid that my sister will not give up willingly in the future. I am really worried. If my sister goes to the underworld to sue her husband, won't your husband Do you want to suffer for the slave family? According to the slave family, after the execution, the husband will bring back the body of the sister, how about we bury the sister in a 'good life'?"

Xia Gaofeng lifted the beauty's chin, "How does Hua'er plan to treat your good sister well?"

Yuehua lifted up a strand of hair and smiled charmingly, "Of course, you should cover your mouth with chaff and cover your face with hair, so that my sister can't complain and have the face to see no one, so I can thank my sister, so that Fenglang and Hua'er are very happy." What does Toyoro say about the kindness that cannot be kept together?"

"Hua'er is right, so be it..." Xia Gaofeng didn't feel guilty about his wife at all.

There was lewd laughter in the room.

After listening to the whole process, Bai Zhan was filled with endless anger. He had seen many scumbags, but it was the first time he had seen a scumbag like Xia Gaofeng.

What's wrong with Lu Xiniang that I'm sorry for this bastard, she didn't say anything about it before she was alive, and she didn't even want to let it go after her death!Sealed with chaff, hair disheveled, bloody grievances cannot be uttered, resentment cannot be eliminated, how can Lu Xiniang reincarnate?

Bai Zhan was really disgusted by these people, and his anger burst out one after another.

"It's really deceiving! These people can't be exaggerated!"

Bai Zhan was overwhelmed by anger, he raised his hand and wanted to use mystic skills, and directly swung them at these people.

Qin Jinyuan grabbed his hand, "Don't be impulsive, you are a celestial master, and you will be punished by God for using magic to harm ordinary people, even if this is an illusion. This should be the trick of the female ghost, deliberately provoking you Break the precepts, once you break the precepts, you will have no chance of attaining enlightenment..."

"If you don't know the way, you don't know the way! If I want to go against my heart in order to get the way, I don't care about this way. I can't get over it. Even if I don't fall into the trap today, this will become my demon."

Bai Zhan gritted his teeth and shook his head.

He only does what he thinks is right, and this is the way in his heart.If the world is in the way, then he will not become a Taoist, but will become a demon.

Qin Jinyuan looked at Bai Zhan's face, and tightly grasped the arm in his hand. After an unknown amount of time, he smiled, and his voice was deep and magnetic, full of nostalgia, "I'll accompany you."

Wherever he goes, this man cannot leave him.

Bai Zhan was slightly stunned, and suddenly felt a hot sorrow in his heart. He felt that this sentence touched his heart more than I love you.

"Okay, let's go together."

Bai Zhan clenched the man's hand with his backhand, then looked at Xia Gaofeng and Yuehua who were still teasing in the room again, raised his hands and formed seals without hesitation, and slapped the two shameless people hard.

"what--"

"boom--"

Accompanied by the screams of the adulterer and adulteress in the room, there was a burst of thunder in the sky at the same time.

Then the surroundings shook like an earthquake, the surrounding scenery disappeared and changed little by little, the originally prosperous Xia Mansion became dilapidated, the bodies of the walking maids and servants quickly rotted, the trees withered, and the pond dried up...

After the shaking stopped, what Bai Zhan saw was a dilapidated and decayed house, a dead city, and those maids, servants, pedestrians, etc., all turned into ghosts of various dead faces, shivering and huddling together.

The ghosts of Xia Gaofeng and Yuehua looked around in horror and yelled like crazy, "No, why did this happen, why did they come back here, no..."

And the three female ghosts reappeared before.

The unrecognizable female ghost in red clothes slowly walked over and looked at Bai Zhan with complicated and mocking eyes.

"Look, I gave them another chance to redeem their sins, but they still choose to kill me. Every time, they are like this. It's not that I don't forgive others, but that they don't let themselves go."

"For hundreds of years, there are many celestial masters who have sympathized with me, but you are the first celestial master who broke the precept for me."

"You want to know... what happened in the first place?"
