Chapter 371 Chapter 371 Dead End

There was an undercurrent in Chu Qianhuang's eyes, and she couldn't help but think of the scene when she saw Aunt Jiang for the last time before leaving Beijing. At that time, Aunt Jiang cried so much that I felt pity for her, and said something to her with sobs:

"Sister Huang, you are my first child..."

"Don't worry, when your brother grows up, you will be able to rely on him even in Nanhao."

"Sister Huang, you are the only two siblings who are connected by blood and can rely on and support each other."

“…”

That day, Aunt Jiang seemed to take pity on herself and took out a banknote for herself, but in fact it was only a mere hundred taels of silver. Chu Lingxiao had always doted on Aunt Jiang, how could she only have such a small amount of money for herself? !

But at that time, I seemed to be blinded by lard. I was so coaxed by Aunt Jiang's pretense that I wanted to give her my heart and soul. I even went to beg the King of Andaman County and didn't hesitate to play such a good trump card in advance. go out.

The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear.

In the past, when she was a bystander, she could clearly see that Aunt Jiang had no affection for Shen Qianchen and was just using her. Through years of suppression and belittling, Aunt Jiang controlled Shen Qianchen, causing Shen Qianchen to gradually develop a low self-esteem. , cowardly temper.

Why couldn't she see that Jiang Minshan was repeating the same trick now that it was her own case? !

Not just that time, but also the previous times.

Every time when Aunt Jiang saw her, she would cry and say that she had no choice but to say how miserable she had been over the years, and that she was her first child... But Aunt Jiang just kept talking and said nothing. With a little practical action, the person who pays every time is himself.

At the moment, I was still very moved when I heard Aunt Jiang's cry. When I think about it now, Chu Qianhuang really wants to slap her in the face.

Chu Qianhuang's face seemed to be fading, becoming paler and paler, and his willow-leaf eyes were filled with shock and hurt.

If she is really not Jiang Minshan's daughter, then what Jiang Minshan says and does contains deep malice, which makes people shudder just thinking about it.

Chu Qianhuang's lips turned white and she was trembling. She forced herself to say, "I don't believe it." This is just Concubine Chu's imagination!

"This is the truth." Concubine Chu looked at Chu Qianhuang with pity in her eyes, as if she were looking down on all living beings from the clouds.

How could she not understand the thoughts of a little girl after being in the palace for so many years? She knew that Chu Qianhuang actually believed 80% of it.

"Sister Huang, don't you think you are very similar to your mother?" Concubine Chu's eyes traced Chu Qianhuang's face carefully, "Your faces, noses, and slender necks are all very similar. ”

Every time Concubine Chu said a word, Chu Qianhuang felt as if a knife had been stabbed in his heart, and his heart throbbed with pain.

Concubine Chu continued unhurriedly: "Back then, Jiang Minshan and Shen Zhi were pregnant at almost the same time, and Jiang Minshan's child was half a month older. Once, your grandfather overheard Jiang Minshan telling your father that she wanted to be pregnant for him. After your eldest son was born, your grandfather was furious. He felt that spoiling a concubine and destroying his wife was a waste of money. He ignored your father's objection and took the initiative to send Jiang Minshan to his hometown in Yuzhou. "

"I remember that Jiang Minshan was already four or five months pregnant with her child."

"Later, when Jiang Minshan was seven months pregnant, she slipped in the garden of her hometown and saw blood. Although she invited a doctor to save the child, she still had a miscarriage and gave birth to a stillborn baby girl."

"It was a coincidence that at that time, the last patriarch of the Chu family, your great-uncle, suddenly fell ill. Your father took your mother back to his hometown in Yuzhou for the funeral. On the way, your mother stayed at a temple. , suddenly activated and gave birth to a pair of twins, you and your second sister. "

"Your father knew that Jiang Minshan was feeling sad because of the miscarriage, so he secretly gave one of the children to Jiang Minshan. That child was Shen Qianchen."

"Hey, your father is bad at love. He grew up with Jiang Minshan, his childhood sweetheart, and took pity on her as his concubine. He was always worried that she would be wronged by your mother... Your mother was also very arrogant and never refused. Being soft to your father makes your father always pity Jiang Minshan a little more."

Concubine Chu talked a little and felt a little dry. She poured herself a cup of warm scented tea and also poured a cup for Chu Qianhuang.

The room fell into silence.

Only the flowers and trees in the courtyard outside the window are swaying with the spring breeze. The weather in April is getting warmer and warmer. Colorful butterflies are dancing among the flowers, and the fragrance is overflowing.

The floral fragrance was rich, lingering in the tip of the nose, lingering, making Chu Qianhuang feel suffocated.

It was as if there was a hand of fate tying invisible threads around her body, treating her like a puppet and playing with it at will, and she was unable to resist at all.

It was Concubine Chu who was the first to break the silence and sighed: "Sister Huang, I know that you can't accept this for a while, but what I said is true."

The spring sunshine poured in through the window, shining softly on Chu Qianhuang's face, making her eyes look even hollower.

After a while, Chu Qianhuang, who was like a sculpture, finally responded and asked with difficulty: "Then why didn't the doctor diagnose twins? I heard that one can diagnose twins from the pulse..."

Concubine Chu sneered lightly and said: "How can we diagnose all twins? Sometimes it is accurate, sometimes it is not accurate. Some people can tell they are twins from their pulses when they are three months pregnant, and some people don't know until they are five months pregnant. Some people don’t know their pulse until they are about to give birth. I don’t know if these quacks are just guessing or taking a chance.”

Not to mention the ordinary doctors outside the palace who couldn't determine the fetal pulse, even the imperial doctors in the palace had sworn when the concubine was pregnant that she was pregnant with a prince, but she gave birth to a princess. Ten months into the pregnancy was a big change.

Chu Qianhuang also knew that what Concubine Chu said was quite reasonable. Chinese medicine was inherently mysterious and relied entirely on so-called experience.

Her lips formed a tight line.

At this moment, her heart was too confused and she could not accept this fact calmly.

If she is Shen Zhi's daughter, then everything that happens after she travels to this world becomes a sad joke.

"Sister Huang," Concubine Chu personally put the cup of scented tea she poured for Chu Qianhuang into Chu Qianhuang's hand, and said softly, "Back then, your father only told me about Jiang Minshan's pregnancy in her hometown. It was only later that your father came back from his hometown to attend the funeral and told me that he gave Shen Qianchen to Jiang Minshan. Your father also gave her a daughter to raise in order to comfort Jiang Minshan from losing her daughter. Your second sister is also very good, she is well-raised and treated as her own child."

"It's just that what I didn't expect was that your second sister's life experience would be exposed, and your mother mistakenly identified you as Jiang Minshan's daughter..."

Concubine Chu let out a long sigh and sadly pushed a few strands of Chu Qianhuang's hair behind her ears, "Hey, you were raised by her after all. After more than ten years of mother-daughter love, how could she I didn’t even check it, I just gave it up.”

Concubine Chu's words were like another sharp sword stabbing into Chu Qianhuang's heart, which was bone-piercing.

Yes. It was Shen Zhi who gave up on herself first. She wanted Shen Qianchen but not herself, just because the so-called "blood is thicker than water"!

But what about reality? !

She was obviously her daughter, but she gave up on herself so lightly and deftly!

Chu Qianhuang's chest heaved violently, as if a volcano was about to erupt, and his eyes became deeper and deeper.

Concubine Chu looked at her and continued: "I don't know why Jiang Minshan recognized you as her daughter. Maybe she was reluctant to let go of the child who had a miscarriage..."

Chu Qianhuang raised her eyelids and glanced at Concubine Chu mockingly. She looked like a hedgehog with thorns all over her body.

Concubine Chu choked and took a sip of scented tea to hide her emotions.

When she put down the tea cup, her expression returned to normal, and she said again: "Sister Huang, I know you are unhappy now, but now is not the time for you to be angry."

"Think about it, if your mother knows that you were born to her, she will definitely feel that she owes you a lot and wants to compensate you. Next, you just need to do as I say." After a pause, Concubine Chu continued He added: "You have grown up with the second prince since you were a child. You also know what kind of person he is. He is the most affectionate person. He has always been good to you and your second sister. It is best for everyone that he ascends the throne. "

Love? Upon hearing these two words, Chu Qianhuang's eyelashes trembled, and the corners of his lips curved in a mocking arc.

Yes, Chu Lingxiao values ​​love, and so does the second prince.

This kind of person is pitiful, hateful, and at the same time very easy to control.

Chu Qianhuang's heart was like a mirror, and she was not coaxed by Concubine Chu with a few words.

She had already been coaxed once by Aunt Jiang when she was confused, and she would not be stupid enough to fall in the same place again.

Chu Qianhuang pinched her own fingertips deeply with her fingertips, her face very calm: "Aunt Concubine, what you said, even if I believe it, how can my mother believe it!"

Until now, the matter about the twins has been based on Concubine Chu's one-sided statement, which is unfounded and harsh. Even if Chu Lingxiao and Jiang Minshan say so, Shen Zhi may not believe it, although Chu Qianhuang herself has already believed it. .

Chu Qianhuang felt as if someone had forced a ball of air into her heart, unable to move up or down.

Concubine Chu smiled again, her smile bright, adding a bit of beauty to her haggard face: "I have evidence."

Chu Qianhuang: "..."

Chu Qianhuang opened her eyes slightly and wanted to ask but held back.

"Sister Huang, this thing is good for you and me. Are you not even willing to give it a try?" Concubine Chu smiled softly, "Are you willing to just give up what should be yours?"

Of course Chu Qianhuang was not willing to give in. She should have been the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, a noble daughter that everyone envied, instead of being inferior to others like she was now.

Chu Qianhuang dug her nails into her fingertips harder. After a moment of silence, she finally relaxed and said, "Okay, I'll try it."

"But, I may not be able to leave the palace at all."

Chu Qianhuang knew herself. Now that the palace was under the control of Prince Chen's palace, she and Shen Qianchen were at odds with each other. Shen Qianchen would ignore her at most and would not be so kind as to let her out of the palace.

The smile on Concubine Chu's face deepened, she patted Chu Qianhuang's hand kindly and said, "I will find a way."

"You were raised by your mother. The love between mother and daughter for more than ten years cannot be faked. You know her best. You have to think carefully about how to persuade her." Concubine Chu warned meaningfully.

Chu Qianhuang remained silent, seemingly immersed in his thoughts.

Concubine Chu did not stay any longer. After stroking her sleeves, she left with the eldest maid.

Chu Qianhuang was left alone sitting by the window, dumbfounded, as if half of his soul had been lost.

She knew that Concubine Chu actually had no aunt-nephew affection for her. Otherwise, since Concubine Chu had known that she and Shen Qianchen were twins, why had she never revealed it to her before, not even a hint.

Concubine Chu was just using herself, or squeezing out her only value. However, Chu Qianhuang didn't care. She also wanted to use Concubine Chu. She wanted to leave Fengluan Palace and return to the Chu family.

Outside the window, a small butterfly was trapped in a spider web under the eaves. The spider web was broken and the threads were thin. However, no matter how much the butterfly flapped its wings, it was still stuck to the spider web and could not break free.

The butterfly wings are still flapping continuously and repeatedly.

Chu Qianhuang stared at the trapped butterfly with twinkling eyes.

If the original owner is really Shen Zhisheng, then Jiang Minshan's scheming is too deep and sinister. Does she hate Shen Zhi so much? !

According to the original plot of the novel, Shen Zhi found out that the original owner and Shen Qianchen were exchanged in March last year. After that, the original owner thought that Jiang Minshan was her biological mother. So, was the original owner also used by Jiang Minshan like herself and used as a gun? ? !

Chu Qianhuang sat blankly for a long time. The whole day passed in a haze. She didn't know what she did, what she ate, who she talked to, and when she lay down to rest...

That night, Chu Qianhuang slept very uneasily.

She started dreaming again, and this time the dream was clearer than the last time!

In the dream, she and Aunt Jiang had a dispute. She wanted to leave, but Aunt Jiang grabbed her hand and refused to let her go. She said to her: "Sister Huang, you misunderstood!"

"I didn't misunderstand!" In the dream, she struggled to throw away Aunt Jiang's hand and stared at her with an extremely shocked look, "You are really terrible!"

In the past, in her dreams, she had always been very gentle and filial to Aunt Jiang. This was the first time she had seen her so excited.

Aunt Jiang staggered and fell to the ground.

Then, Chu Qianhuang heard a sobbing female voice behind her calling in pain: "My head..."

She turned around subconsciously, and what she saw was a shining silver dagger. The dagger stabbed towards her crazily from the darkness...

This scene looks so familiar.

The last time, she also dreamed of this scene, a dagger was stabbed at her, and then the dream stopped abruptly. She woke up from the dream, and did not see clearly the owner of the dagger. She only saw that the hand holding the dagger belonged to a woman. The fingers are slender, and the nails are dyed with light-colored khaodan.

But this time, she saw the man holding the dagger with her own eyes.

It’s Jiang Minshan!

Chu Qianhuang clearly saw Aunt Jiang's beautiful and delicate face.

Normally, this face was always so gentle and kind, so pitiful, but now, the expression on Aunt Jiang's face was so cold and vicious, twisted into a face like a poisonous snake spitting out a message.

It makes people shudder!

it hurts!

A heart-piercing pain swept toward Chu Qianhuang...

In fact, I have always emphasized in the plot that Chu Qianhuang and the time-traveling girl are two people (every time I write, some people say that I am just trying to make up the word count). Huang is Shen Zhi’s daughter, but the time-traveling girl is not.

Her time travel is of great significance to Shen Zhi and the two sisters. I can’t say any more, as it would be a spoiler.

Don't wash it off.
